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 (以为特征) 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. 1.

In which part of a newspaper can we read the text? A. Art.B. News.C. Fashion. D. Education. BMy favorite book that Ive read is the well-known novel Hatchet, by Gary Paulsen. 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.5. 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.6. 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.7. 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 novelCDroughts (干旱) are a common feature of the weather in the UK, with one around every 5 to 10 years on average. After 18 months since the drought began to hit the UK, most of the east and south-east of England is affected by drought. Luckily, a new water plant in Beckton, East London, is helping to ease the drought by turning seawater into drinking water.The 270-million plant uses a process called desalination, through which salt and other minerals are taken out of seawater. The plant takes seawater from the Thames Estuary when the sea is at low tide, filters (过滤) it and then pumps it through a membrane (薄膜) with lots of little holes in it. The process makes the water so clean that essential minerals have to be put back into it. Around 150 million liters of water will be produced in this way each day, supplying 1.4 million people with water.With summer drawing near, the project has been developed to help the widespread drought across the UK. Seven water companies have announced the limited use of water, and hosepipe (水龙带) bans are likely to be announced next month. The ban could affect one in three homes and people caught breaking the rules could face a fine of up to 1,000.As the desalination process is expensive to run and uses a lot of energy, it will only be used in times of drought. Martin Baggs, chief executive of Thames Water, said that more money is needed to help build reservoirs (水库) and develop new technology. He added, “People must use less water during extreme conditions.”8. The process of desalination refers to the process of . A. removing salt from seawater B. adding minerals into seawater C. taking water from the sea D. supplying people with water9. It is implied in the text that in summer, . A. the drought in the UK will be less severe B. more methods will be used to ease droughts C. more drinking water will be accessible in the UK D. the UK will be threatened by more serious droughts10. The process of desalination might not be widely used mainly because . A. new technology can be developed B. it costs too much money and energy C. it cant produce enough drinking water D. the water made this way isnt healthy11. What is the text mainly about? A. Droughts have been common in the history of the UK. B. The technology of taking salt out of seawater is being tested. C. Seawater is being turned into drinking water in the UK. D. Different methods are used to ease the droughts in the UK.DNews 1December 18, 2020 This year shows strong growth for wind power when the total global installed capacity (能量) added a record 62,000 MW, making the total capacity more than 680,000 MW.

But basically, respect means showing regard or consideration for someone or something. It is important to recognize the difference between respect and obedience (顺从). 16 However, when a child understands that your rules will finally do his good, he will obey you because he respects you. The best way to teach your child about respect is for you to show respect to yourself, your child, and others. 17 Observing respectable adults behavior helps your child learn the value of respect and how to use it. As your child enters the teen years, it can be extremely difficult to show respect and set up boundaries (界限) with your child when he or she is being disrespectful to you. Its important, though challenging, not to stoop (屈尊) to their level. 18 Keep in mind that schools may teach children about respect. 19 If you are caught saying unpleasant things about the opposing team during a soccer game or screaming bad words at the people who just cut you off, your child will take this as a cue (暗示) that its okay to be disrespectful to your peers. 20 Truly listen to them when they have something to say. Let them know that their words and feelings are important to you. Help them learn to appreciate and take care of their things by respecting their personal property. Respect their freedom by knocking before entering their room and ask that they do the same. Remember that you are their role model.A. Most importantly, treat your kids with respect.B. You cant be with your child every minute of the day.C. It takes a lot of strength to walk away and not shout back.D. A child may obey you simply because he is afraid of you.E. Kids are greatly influenced (影响) throughout their days by adults.F. It is important for a child to understand the importance of respect. G. But it is you, the parent, who holds the most influence over your children.第二部分 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)In December 2013, my parents asked me what I wanted for Christmas.
