The novel is about a thirteen-year-old boy named Brian Robeson. He goes to meet his father in Canada, but when hes in the plane heading for his father, something goes terribly wrong the pilot of the plane gets a sudden heart attack. Brian is stranded (处于困境) in the Canadian wilderness after the plane crashes, with only a hatchet (手斧) and the clothes on his back. As the plane goes down in the story, the risks rise for Brian. Thats one reason why this book is so great. Gary Paulsen explains Brians troubles in simple words, but he also uses lots of those words to describe Brians troubles as well. One other reason is that it sparks (激发) your mind into reading or makes you start reading Gary Paulsens books. In this novel, the question is, “How will the main character survive?” So its obvious that this book is an adventure and a “man against nature” novel. As you have probably guessed, Brian suffers from hunger and searches for food and shelter. When Brian finds any kind of food, he feels as if he just found money in the street. The third reason why this book is so well thought of is the creativity Gary has put into Brian. Brian uses a lot of things in his surroundings in every way: a common stick can be a spear (矛) or an arrow. In a word, when you start this book, you wont stop reading it until Brian is rescued. I feel that Gary Paulsen gave Brian Robeson life, and thats what made Hatchet a great book.11. What challenge does Brian have to face?A. He can hardly keep himself warm. B. He is too young to protect himself. C. Its very difficult to find food. D. He has no tools with him.12. Whats probably the ending of the story?A. The boy is found and saved. B. The boy fails to defeat difficulties.C. The boy manages to fly to his father. D. The boy lives in the wilderness forever.13. We can learn from the text that .A. the novel mainly tells us how to survive in the wildB. hatchet is the only thing that the pilot leaves to BrianC. Gary Paulsen saved Brian Robesons life D. the author thinks highly of the novelBThe most popular fashion trend (趋势) for 2012 is a modern reinvention of revival (重新流行) styles, particularly styles from the 1960s. This is mostly a result of recent TV shows. Many of the styles on sale look attractive on teenage girls. Cat eye sunglassesCat eye sunglasses are one of the most fashionable sunglasses shapes for 2012. Cat eye sunglasses are those shaped wider along the top lenses (镜片) and narrower at the bottom. They will immediately make you look up to date with the 1960s revival. Curve hugging dressesWhen you are young, your body is often in the best shape of your life. So its a great time to show it off. Stars like the Kardashian sisters have been making curve hugging dresses really popular. They may come in long sleeve styles if where you live is a little cool in autumn. Ballet flat shoesBallet flat shoes are a great day-to-day style because they are always very comfortable to walk in. This season many printed styles are appearing in stores. Flower prints are some of the most popular looks. Color block T-shirtsColor blocking was a trend that first appeared during the 1960s. It is characterized by the use of different solid colors in the one design broken up by lines. During the 1960s, color block dresses were particularly popular. A more modern style is the color block T-shirt. You will find styles which feature one color across the shoulders, another across the chest and yet another on the lower part of the T-shirt. 14.

In which part of a newspaper can we read the text? A. Art. B. News.C. Fashion. D. Education. CMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldnt fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model, I realized this a day late, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars lessthan I had paid, The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night, Fortunately, I didnt got any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static (静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise ,I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether .My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.18. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A. He got an older model than he had expected.B. He couldnt return it when it was broken.C. He could have bought it at a lower price.D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.19. Which of the following can best replace the phrase “signed off” in Paragraph 1?A. ended all their programs B. provided fewer channelsC. changed to commercials D. showed all-night movies20. How did the author finally get his TV set working again?A. By shaking and hitting it. B. By turning it on and off.C. By switching channels. D. By having it repaired.21. How does the author sound when telling the story ?A. Curious B. Anxious C. Cautious D. HumorousDYour house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating , for people are often less self-conscious（难为情）when theyre in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food . If your home doesnt have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry . So when its time to repaint, go blue.Dont forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories（卡路里） per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And while youre at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes, Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake（摄入） jumps by 14 percent. And well pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.22. The text is especially helpful for those who care about_.A. their home comforts B. their body shape C. house buying D. healthy diets23. A home environment in blue can help people_.A. digest food better B. reduce food intakeC. burn more calories D. regain their appetites24. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?A. Eat quickly. B. Play fast music.C. Use smaller spoons. D. Turn down the lights.25. What can be a suitable title for the test?A. Is Your House Making You Fat? B. Ways of Serving DinnerC. Effects of Self-Consciousness D. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?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。Training for a marathon requires careful preparation and steady, gradual increases in the length of the runs. 26 , buy the best-fiting, best-built running shoes you can find.
