then meet to discuss them.Now,the website BookC turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share.BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book.Then the person leaves it in a public place,hoping that the book will have an adventure,traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson,the managing director of BookCrossing,says,“The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read.BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses,in train stations and coffee shops.Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it.E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossers to keep them updated about where their books have been found.Bruce Pederson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the“real”and not the virtual(虚拟).The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.21Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?ATo explain what they are.BTo introduce BookCrossing.CTo stress the importance of reading.DTo encourage readers to share their ideas.22What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?AMeet other readers to discuss it.BKeep it safe in his bookcase.CPass it on to another reader.DMail it back to its owner.23What is the best title for the text?AOnline Reading:A Virtual Tour BElectronic Books:A new Trend CA Book Group Brings Tradition Back D A Website Links People through Books B Whatever Rock was doing down there,it made enough noise for me to go to him.By the time I made it to the bottom of the stairs,he was running up,and he never came up the stairs,no matter what.I think that was his way of telling me,“We ve got to go back up.”When I got to the top of the stairs,I turned around and saw a light on,but I didn t remember leaving one on.I walked downstairs again,and that s when I saw fire,I immediately shouted to my wife to wake up and get our three kids,I grabbed a knife and cut out the plastic that covered the window to the porch roof.I then broke the window and kicked out the screen.I got everybody out on the roof and threw a blanket out there so we wouldnt slip off.It was cold,January cold.Then I started screaming for help.But help never came.Now,I m scared of heights and have physical issues,what with my rheumatoid arthritis(类风湿性关节炎),but I couldn t let my family burn up.So I jumped off the roof.I didnt run to the edge;I just jumped and got the wind knocked out of me when I landed.I found our ladder,placed it against the house,and climbed back up to the roof.I wrapped my arms around my daughter and carried my nine-month-old son with my teeth,by his little sleeper.Then I climbed down the ladder.Once on the ground,I had my little girl hold her brother,and I went back up to the roof to get my other daughter.Then I went back up again and got my wife.I tried to get my dog,but he just disappeared in the black smoke.I never saw him alive again.I m no hero.Im just an ordinary person whod help anybody.This happened to be the time when I helped my own family.I live to protect my family.Just like Rockhe lived to protect us.24Why did Rock make enough noise?ARock caused the fire and tried to escape.BRock was warming up itself to fight cold.CRock was playing upstairs and downstairs.DRock tried to remind the author of the fire.25The author jumped off the roof _.Ato call for help Bto challenge himself Cto find tools for rescue Dto escape being burned 26What can we learn about the author?AStrict and devoted.BSmart and sociable.CResponsible and brave.DPowerful and considerate.27Which of the following can be the best title of the text?ARocks Heroic Life BEscape from the Fire CA Lesson I Have Learnt D My Adventure Experience C For a small town,Mantattan,Kansas has some big surprises.And one of them is the Holiday Inn Hotel,with rooms built around a swimming pool and a friendly atmosphere.The Holiday Inn is where Manhattan people often go for a special party,or a night out.A lot of them choose to eat in the bright?lit restaurant near the pool,And many of them will be served by Ellen Logan,who has worked as a waitress here for more than two years.Ellen,like most of the waitresses,is also a student.She comes from Nebraska,but shes planning one day to be a vet erinary surgeon,and to care for small animals.But in order to support herself at college,she works twenty hours a week at the Holiday Inn.Ellen soon learned what every waitress finds out.Your best friend has a good pair of shoes.She paid forty?five dollars for hers,much more than she would usually spend.Shes discovered something else too.You dont have to know much about food to be a good waitress,but you do have to know a lot about people.“A lot of business people always stay here when they come to Manhattan”,she explains.“They like you to recognize them and remember their favorite dishes.But some couples come for a night out together.They just want to be left alone.Then there are people who cant make up their minds.They look down the men u and say,What do you suggest?So I ask them how hungry they are.If they say,Not very.I suggest the salad bar,with soup,salad,bread,and a fruit plate.But if they say they re very hungry,I suggest a Kansas Strip Steak,with potatoes or rice.You get salad and bread as well.It s very nice.Real good value”.Ellen may get tired sometimes,but at least shes learning too much about people.She s learning too much about people.She ll probably make a good animal doctor,but if she finds she doesnt like it after all,she can become a psychiatrist(心理医生)instead.28What does the underlined phrase“a veterinary

eat.BMany couples often want you to recognize them.CWhy people like to eat in the hotel is that it is full of a friendly atmosphere.DIf you know a lot about people,youll be a good veterinary surgeon.30From the passage we can infer that.Awaitresses in the Holiday Inn are all students.Bwaitresses are required to buy a good pair of shoes before they go to work.Cwaitresses should be familiar with the food there.Dit is more important for the waitresses to know much about people than food.31Choose the best title for the passage.AHow to Deal with People BA Special Holiday Inn Hotel in Manhattan CAmerican Holiday Inn DEllen Logan at the Holiday Inn D NEWS BRIEF New labels to show calories The US government ruled that all food establishments(场所)should put the calorie information of their foods on their menus.Within a year chain restaurants,like fast food KFC,will have to say clearly on their menus how many calories their fried chicken wings,fries,and other items contain.Amusement parks,movie theaters and supermarkets will also have to follow the rules.The move is designed to fight against the problem of obesity(肥胖)in the US.Antibioticsleading to world problem The entire world is facing this problem:antibiotic resistance.And the resistance will lead to the deaths of 10 million people across the world by 2025,predicted a new report released by the UK government.Antibiotics are used to destroy or slow the growth of harmful bacteria in our bodies.But overuse and misuse of them can encourage bacteria to develop new ways of overcoming antibiotics,which makes it increasingly difficult for humans to fight diseases._Australia is the worlds most expensive destination for international students,according to a study done by Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation(HSBC).They have to spend an average of$42,000(about 258,000 yuan)a year to study at Australian universities.Singapore is not far behind,with an average yearly cost of$39,229,followed by the US at$36,564 and the UK at 35,045.However,Australias education quality only ranks joint fourth with Canada,well below the US,the UK,and Germany.In addition,international students studying in Germany only have to pay about one-sixth the cost of studying in Australia.New Games sports may be addedThe International Olympic Committee has canceled the 28-sportcap for future summer Olympics But each summer Games will still only be allowed 10,500 athletes and 310 events.Countries that could host the games will discuss plans with the committee during a new invitation stage before bidding.They are also allowed to hold events outside their own countries and get financial support from the committee.No changes will be introduced for the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro,Brazil.32The news brief covers _.Amedicine,disaster,finance,events Bbusiness,medicine,economy,sports Cservice,health,education,events Dhealth,medicine,education,sports 33The underlined

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。Have you ever heard of an insect called the cicada(蝉)?36 But they have an interesting internal clock that tells them when to go aboveground.Every 17 years,billions of the noisy Brood V cicadas(十七年蝉)will swarm(成群出现)to northeastern parts of the US,including New York,Ohio and Pennsylvania.37But there are usually a lot less of them compared to the Brood V cicadas.38 According to Discovery News,these insects started their lives in 1999.And as their 17-year life cycle comes to an end,they go aboveground when their underground homes get warmer 64 degrees Fahrenheit(about 18)to be exact.Then the females will lay hundreds of eggs in trees,and after about four to six weeks,the mother and father cicadas will die.39While they can be kind of annoying,these insects dont harm humans,but they do make a lot of noise during their time aboveground.40However,since there are so many of the 17-year cicadas,the amount of laid eggs can sometimes harm small trees and bushes.But after this summer,these insects will mostly mind their own business until 2033.AThat sound is the male cicadas attracting the female cicadas.BThe cicada insects are common in summer,especially in August and can be found in July as well.CThere are other kinds of cicadas that come around once a year or every 13 years.DThe baby cicadas will go underground,and the 17-year cycle will start over again.E.As a matter of fact,people like to eat them in some cultures.F.Well,a special kind of these insects live underground in the US for most of their lives.G.This is what makes Brood V cicadas so special.第三部分:英语知识运用(共两节,满分45 分)第一节完形填空(共 20 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 30 分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给四个选项(A、B、C和 D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Be a Traveler,not a Tourist Last summer,I had
