Where are we going?M：Oh, Jake made a reservation at a restaurant near my home.(Text 3)W：Do you think the weather will be good this weekend?M：I heard it might rain.W：Thats a pity.

Is it a novel?M：No, its a medical book. Its been very popular recently, even though theres obviously boring subject matter.W：Really? I dont think Id enjoy anything on such a boring topic, even if it is useful. I much prefer science fiction, especially about what life might be like in the future.(Text 5)M：Hey, you look great! How did you get in such good shape?W：Ive been going to the club regularly, and the training has really paid off. Im in better shape than I have been for years and I know much more about how to keep fit.M：I havent gone to the club for weeks. I am too busy with work.W：I know. Its so easy to be too busy for exercise, but Ive realized that exercise is extremely important to every other aspect of life.(Text 6)M：Do you often shop online?W：Oh, yes, quite often. It is very convenient, and it saves me a lot of time.M：You know, Ive never tried online shopping before. Id like to try, but Im a bit nervous Ill make a mistake.W：Ah, you are talking to the right person. If you keep two very important tips in mind, youll be fine. First, visit more than one site to find the best products and prices. I can tell you some of the best online shops. Second, when you finally place your order, be sure to write your mailing address and phone number correctly, or you might not receive your delivery on time.M：So what do I do if I want to buy something?W：You just need to provide your name, mailing address, email address, phone number and bank card information.

Have you decided to give up?M：No. I came back late yesterday and found John asleep in his chair. Hed been writing a report all day long and he was too tired to go out again. So we gave the lesson a miss.W：Youve missed quite a lot of lessons recently, havent you? Are you losing interest?M：Yes, Im afraid so. Neither I nor John has a gift for language. People just laugh at us when we attempt to speak Spanish. How did you and Jane pick it up so quickly and easily? Youve been in Spain for hardly a month.W：It wasnt all that quick. Wed both studied the language before we came, and we needed a lot of review before we came back.M：Anyway, all our friends here speak English very well, so we dont really need to learn Spanish.(Text 8)M：I am having trouble with my job.

So have you started filling out any university applications?W：Yes, I have. The applications take a while!M：They do, especially all those essays.W：Yes, those are hard. Im not really sure what to write about.M：Im glad Im not applying until the spring, so I have more time to prepare.W：Yeah, youre lucky you have more time.

Ill give you his phone number right now.M：Thanks!(Text 10)Future homes will have some really smart cooking tools. Microwave ovens and refrigerators will probably be combined, so that meals can be ready upon ones arrival home.Future homes may also have refrigerators that can suggest menus based upon the food you have at home. In the home of the future, the refrigerator will probably also be able to take note of all food supplies in the home and inform you when youre running out, or even be programmed to contact the local supermarket to drop off the needed food supplies.Future homes will also be very energysaving. Microsoft, Google and others are now working on applications to help you see and track which tools use the most electricity, helping you save electricity and thus your daily expenses.There will most likely also be systems in place for saving and reusing wash water and bath water, which will probably have to be the main origin of future water, so that both plants and people can still have clean water in the future, when water supplies are low.第二部分阅读理解(满分40分，限时35分钟)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。AThe older we get, the more our bodies change, especially our skin. One of the biggest changes: it itches (发痒) more than ever.“Itching is a common problem as we age，” says Dr. Vishakha Gigler. “The skin changes, often becoming thinner, drier and more sensitive.”Biological changes are one thing, but there is now strong evidence to support the thinking that something else is partly to blame: prescription and nonprescription medications. Dr. Gigler says, “I often see seniors in my practice who are suffering from itchy skin. Medical conditions and certain medications can be an underlying (潜在的) cause.”Medications commonly prescribed to senior citizens, including pain relievers, blood pressure medications, sleep aids, can often cause increases in skin sensitivity and itching.Many seniors seek relief from itching with products containing steroids (类固醇), but this can present another problem. According to medical professionals, steroidal creams carry their own side effects, including thinned skin, allergic reactions and more itching.Fortunately, one of the bestselling, most effective itch relievers is steroidfree and safe for the whole family to use: TriCalm hydrogel (水凝胶). TriCalm is a nonprescription medication that is guaranteed to relieve itch.TriCalms strong guarantee and effectiveness are why skin doctors throughout the country are recommending TriCalm to their patients year round.While other products can take up to 24 hours and require repeated applications to get the full benefit, TriCalm works almost immediately, providing rapid relief from itch with a single application; and because TriCalm is steroidfree, it is safe for the whole family to use.TriCalm is also backed by a 100% MoneyBack “Itch Free Guarantee，” which promises the product will relieve your itchy skin, or you can send back the empty tube for a full refund.TriCalm is available for purchase at several major retailers (零售店), including Walmart, Walgreens and CVS/pharmacy. For more information about TriCalm, visit www.TriC.语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文。文章是一则止痒药的广告。21Which is mentioned as a cause of seniors itch problem?ATheir foods.BSleep disorders.CTheir medications. DHigh blood pressure.解析：选C细节理解题。由第三段中的“something else is partly to blame: prescription and nonprescription medications”可知。22Steroids are mentioned mainly to prove that TriCalm is _.Asafe BcheapCeffective Dtraditional解析：选A推理判断题。由第五、六段可知，含有类固醇的药物有加剧瘙痒等副作用，而TriCalm不含类固醇，也就不会有此类副作用，所以比较安全。23According to the text, TriCalm _.Ahas a competitive priceBcan only be used by adultsCcan only be bought in drugstoresDprovides a good aftersale guarantee解析：选D推理判断题。由倒数第二段可知，TriCalm如果对于购买者不见效，购买者可以将空管寄回从而得到全额退款。也就是说它有好的售后保证。BTwo hero housemates have told how they pulled their neighbor from a smokefilled kitchen.Rhys Lomax, 29, and Chris Clark, 25, of South Street, charged into the 41yearold mans home after they heard his smoke alarm at around 1：55 am on Sunday.Prison officer Mr Lomax said, “I had just picked Chris up from the airport and we were arriving back at our house.“Then I heard this beeping and at first I thought it was the car because wed left the headlights on.“But then I realized it was my neighbors house and we could see smoke everywhere.“We charged into the house and found him lying on the oven with black smoke coming from it.“We dragged him out and put him on the main road and then called the fire department and ambulance.”Firefighters put out the fire, which left the kitchen damaged and the oven completely destroyed.People attempted to take the 41yearold man to hospital but he refused medical attention.Mr. Lomax added, “If it had been another couple of minutes I think he would have gone up in flames. He was a very lucky man.“He was very lucky. I was bringing Chris back from the airport because otherwise I dont think we would have heard the alarm.”Afterwards, fire officers praised the pair, saying they had potentially (可能地) saved the mans life.But Mr. Lomax played it down and added, “I am a prison officer so I have dealt with things like that before.”And Mr. Clark, a shop manager, said, “If there had been flames we might have thought twice but we just covered our mouths and went in.”语篇解读：本文主要讲述了两个人勇敢地把邻居从冒烟的厨房内救了出来。24What is the main idea of this passage?ATwo people were praised by the fire officials for their brave deed.BA man refused to be taken to hospital after being saved from his house.CTwo people bravely saved their neighbor from a kitchen full of smoke.DA lucky man was rescued by the firefighters with the help of his neighbors.解析：选C主旨大意题。由本文主旨句“Two hero housemates have told how they pulled their neighbor from a smokefilled kitchen.”可知，本文讲述了两个人将邻居从冒烟的厨房内救出的故事。25The man was thought lucky because _.Athe firefighters arrived for rescue in timeBthe neighbors gave timely first aid to the manCthe kitchen didnt catch fire at that timeDit happened when his neighbors were coming from the airport解析：选D细节理解题。由倒数第四段中的“I was bringing Chris back from the airport because otherwise I dont think we would have heard the alarm.”可知，这位受害者很幸运，因为碰巧Rhys Lomax从机场回来碰上了这起事故。26What can we learn from the passage?AThere was some food in the oven.BThe man in the house went to the hospital at last.CMr. Lomax thought what they did was not particularly important.DThe man in the house was drunk and did not know anything.解析：选C细节理解题。由倒数第二段可知Rhys Lomax之前就做过类似的事情，所以他并没有把抢救邻居这件事看得特别了不起。27Why did the neighbors go into the kitchen without hesitation?ABecause the man in the kitchen was in great danger.BBecause the man in the kitchen was asking for help.CBecause though the kitchen was full of smoke there was no fire.DBecause they thought it was not very dangerous and they could put out the fire.解析：选C推理判断题。由最后一段可知他们只看到了厨房里有烟，但没有火焰。这说明危险不是很大，所以就毫不犹豫地进去了。CIn many sports, physical contact (身体接触) is part of the game. But when athletes hit their heads, the hit can cause concussions (脑震荡)Concussions have long been a concern for professional athletes, but theyve become more common among young players too. Between 2001 and 2009, the number of kids under 19 visiting doctors for concussions each year increased by 62 percent.Engineers are developing new helmets (头盔), and new rules are limiting physical contact in some sports. But are these efforts enough to protect kids brains?Concussions can happen during many types of activities. But sports like football and soccer are especially risky. When you run or jump, your body is moving at an increased speed. A sudden hit causes you to move faster in a different direction.“Its like when youre in a bus and it makes a sudden stop，” says Dr. Kevin Crutchfield, an expert at a sports concussion center in Baltimore, Maryland. “You hit the inside of the bus.”This hit damages the brain. It affects the way the brain functions. So some sports require athletes to wear helmets. Helmets help reduce the force of a hit. The hard outer shell spreads the force over a larger area. Inside a helmet, a plastic or airfilled lining also helps soften the blow.Steve Rowson is an engineer at Virginia Tech. In his lab, he tests how helmets hold up against different types of hits. No helmet can prevent concussions completely, says Rowson. But hes found that when wearing a newer football helmet, the players head doesnt gain speed as much after a hit. That lowers the risk of concussions.Many youth sports teams have set limits on physical contact to reduce the risk of concussions. In soccer, most concussions happen as a result of headers shots or passes made with the head. Thats why many people think kids shouldnt head the ball until high school.These efforts should help, says Crutchfield. But the best way to prevent longterm brain injuries, he says, is to stop playing immediately if you suffer concussion. “Protect yourself today so you can play again tomorrow.”语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。青少年在运动中因头部撞击导致脑震荡的比例在逐年增高，工程师、医生和教练正采取措施改善这一情况。28Concussions among young players _.Aare rare before 2001Bseem extremely worryingCcause kids to lose interest in sportsDare mostly caused by wearing no helmets解析：选B推理判断题。由第二段中的“more common”和“each year increased by 62 percent”可知，青少年因体育运动导致脑震荡的情况越来越严重，令人担忧。29The author mentions the sudden stop of the bus to _.Astress its dangerous to ride busesBshow human brains are easily damagedCgive a better explanation of concussionsDremind people to wear helmets while playing sports解析：选C推理判断题。作者在第五段中提到公交车急刹车时人们会受到撞击
