Mike is always trying to understand Spanish, and whenever my mother and I speak Spanish, he tries to pick up words. One day, he heard us say that a woman we noticed was chula. He asked what it meant, and we told him that it meant “pretty”.When we went to my mother's house for her birthday party the next week, he walked in the door, gave her a big birthday kiss and said, “Feliz cumpleanos, mi chuleta.”He danced her around the kitchen, calling my mother his chuleta, all the while thinking he was flattering his mother-in-law and impressing her with his Spanish.My mother, who is soft-spoken and shy, raised an eyebrow and looked over her shoulder at me, but she didnt say anything. The problem is, chuleta doesnt mean “pretty” in Spanish; it means “chop”（剁）, as in “pork chop”. In some places it has a double meaning: its something a boyfriend would say to his girlfriend, but certainly not a son-in-law to his mother-in-law! But Mike's intentions were so sweet: he was trying to let my mother know how much he loved her and that she was still beautiful in her old age. Im not sure what my mother thought he was doing. I just smiled and enjoyed the irony.Pretty soon my brothers and sisters gathered in the kitchen to watch the dancing as Mike continued to call my mother his “little pork chop”. We didnt tell him what he was doing because we didnt want to embarrass him. But every time he left the room, we would laugh so hard that tears would start rolling down our cheeks.21. The underlined word “flattering” in Para.2 is closest in meaning to _.A. encouragingB. admiringC. accusingD. teasing22. Why didnt the author and her family members tell Mike the truth?A. Because her mother liked being called “chuleta”.B. Because he had a bad nose for language learning.C. Because they didnt intend to make him awkward.D. Because they would have more chances to fool him.23. The author tells the story in a(n) _ tone.A. annoyedB. seriousC. concernedD. humorousBAn earthquake hit Bam, Iran on December 26, 2003. The quake occurred at 5:26 AM (Iran Standard Time). Its epicenter（震中）was roughly 10 kilometres southwest of the ancient city of Bam. Maximum intensities were at Bam and Baravat, an important regional center during the 16th and 17th centuries. About 30,000 people were killed in the quakenearly a third of the citys population. And more were left injured. In terms of human loss, the quake was the worst to occur in Iranian history.Bam, an ancient city, was one of the most-visited historical sites in the world. But nearly everything crumbled in the disaster. Up to ninety percent of buildings and infrastructure in the Bam area were either damaged or destroyed, with 70% of houses being completely destroyed, plus 70-90% of Bams residential areas. This let an approximated 100,000 homeless. Not a single house was standing in Baravat. The main reason why the earthquake caused such damage was that Bams buildings were made mostly from baked mud. Most buildings, built in the traditional mud-brick style, were not constructed to survive such disasters. These buildings fell down in piles of dust and sand.Bam was most famed for its centuries-old castle made entirely of mud bricks, clay, straw and the trunks of palm trees. The castle was so big that it was once the city of Bam itself. Public housing lined its ground level; a marketplace and two mosques（清真寺）also fit comfortably inside.Bam was once a commercial and trading center on the famous Silk Road. In the 16th and 17th centuries, treasures from the Far East were carried along the road into the capital cities of Europe. The city was also used as an army camp until 1932 and then completely abandoned. About five decades ago, groups of architects began restoring the historic treasures of the city. Ever since, it has attracted thousands of visitors from all over the world.Following this disaster, 44 countries in total sent rescue teams to assist in relief operations and 60 countries offered assistance and supplies. With such support, spiritual leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei promised that they would rebuild Bam stronger than before.24. What was Bam most famous for?A. Beautiful palm trees.B. An old mud and straw castle.C. Frequent earthquakes.D. Treasures from the Far East.25. The earthquake in Bam was such a disaster mainly because _.A. it occurred early in the morningB. Bam was a most-visited destinationC. it happened in a commercial and trading centerD. most buildings were constructed with baked mud26. The passage is mostly taken from _.A. a newspaperB. a rescue handbookC. a guidebookD. a collection of research papersCDemolition is the tearing-down of buildings and other structures. You can level a 5-story building easily with giant modern machines, but when you need to bring down a 20-story skyscraper, explosive demolition is the preferred method for safely demolishing the huge structure.In order to demolish a building safely, workers must map out a careful plan ahead of time. The first step is to examine architectural blueprints of the building to determine how the building is put together. Next, they tour the building, putting down notes about the support structure on each floor. Once having gathered all the data needed, they design a plan of attack. They decide what explosives to use, where to position them in the building, and how to time their explosions.Generally speaking, workers will explode the major support columns（柱子）on the lower floors first and then on a few upper stories. In a 20-story building, they might blow the columns on the first and second floor, as well as the 12th and 15th floors. In most cases, blowing the support structures on the lower floors is acceptable and enough for destroying the building, but loading explosives on upper floors helps break the building material into smaller pieces as it falls. This makes it easier to clean up. The main challenge in bringing a building down is controlling the direction in which it falls. To bring down the building towards the north, workers set off explosives on the north side of the building first. By controlling the way it falls down, they will be able to pull the building down on one side, into a parking lot or other open area. This sort of demolition is the easiest to perform, and it is generally the safest way to go.27. To tear down a building, workers first need to _.A. hire an experienced architectB. make a model of the buildingC. study the structure of the buildingD. consult the designer of the building28.To break a 20-story buildings material into smaller pieces, it is helpful to load explosive on _.A. the 15th floorB. the 20th floorC. the 1st floorD. the basement29. In the diagram, which side of the target building should be exploded first?A. The east side.B. The west side.C. The south side.D. The north side.30. What is the passage mainly about?A. When to explode a building.B. Where to start the explosion in a building.C. Why to use explosives to destroy a building.D. How to tear down a building with explosives.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Different parents have different reactions to learning that their child might be experiencing bullying（欺凌）. Some may believe that the bullying is a way to “toughen them up”. Others might become so angry that they want to face the bullies themselves or may push their children to fight back. 31 Its much better to try to calm yourself down and find ways to solve the problem. Here are some suggestions that experts recommend.Talk about bullying. One of the best ways to help your bullied child is to simply talk about bullying. Not about their bully specifically or the trouble theyre going through, but why bullying happens, how bullies typically work, and what they can do to make it stop and help others. They also need to understand that bullies are never to blame for bullying because far too many of them can feel guilty and even become depressed. 32 33 A lot of kids wont be comfortable coming to their parents for help for a variety of reasons, so its important that you do everything you can to show them that talking to you about a problem is something safe. Make sure they know that you care and that youre willing to listen no matter what, but dont press them for information or they might retreat further into themselves.Document everything. 34 School authorities will often want proof if you go to them with accusations, and the court will certainly need it if it gets to the point that you need to make it a legal matter. Just as importantly, hanging on to things like emails can really help if your son or daughter is being targeted by anonymous bullies, because authorities sometimes use that information to track down the bully.Go to officials. Letting bullying go too far can lead to all kinds of potential physical and psychological damage. 35 Meetings like this can go one of two ways-you can focus on the problem by yourself and take actions against the bullies, or you can work with school officials to start programs that educate their students about bullying and seek to control it in the school.A. Keep an eye out for your child.B. Make yourself available to your child.C. These choices are rarely the right way to handle bullying.D. Sometimes you have to go to school officials to get it stopped.E. You have a number of options available to you depending on your personality.F. If there are records of your child being bullied, it is vital to hold on to the evidence.G. In this way, you can arm your child with information they can use to solve the problem.第三部分：语言运用（百强校英语解析团队专供）（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完形填空（共20个小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。In the late afternoon, fifteen-year-old Saanya can often be found in the comfortable room of her home. 36 she isnt doing homework.
