Along with more than 300 other seniors, I marched into the stadium on the afternoon of May 10. The audience burst into deafening cheers. The huge stadium shook with all the whistling and clapping. It was as if a Hollywood superstar had walked on stage. And indeed, every single senior that day was a star of the moment. Each deserved it. The seniors had been preparing for four years for this once-in-a-lifetime momentthe commencement(graduation ceremony). Seated, I waited anxiously for the opening address. As a foreign exchange student, I was not able to receive a diploma. However, I still had the wonderful feeling of being part of things. Like the other graduates, I was dressed in maroon(褐红色) cap and gown(长服). Our principal, Mr Glover, delivered a short, warm greeting. The US national anthem followed and then, hands on chests, a solemn Pledge of Allegiance(美国的爱国誓言). Students who had excelled academically gave farewell speeches. The tears in some eyes convinced me that many had deep feelings about the occasion. It was as the class motto says, “Life brings us tears, smiles and memories. The tears dry; the smiles fade; but the memories last forever.” Then came the core(核心) of the commencement. Hundreds of names were announced. Each graduate walked across the stage to receive his or her diploma from the principal. From the different cheers each graduate got, we had the funny sense that it was a kind of competition of who could cheer the loudest. To be honest, the presentation of diplomas got boring. A girl sitting next to me even started yawning. But it wasnt boring for those receiving the diploma: they would treasure the moment the principal placed the sacred brown document in their hands for the rest of their lives. A new page in the book of that persons life had turned. They were glimpsing their futures: futures of challenge, hardship, perhaps loneliness too, which would take all of their courage.1. Whats the article mainly about? A. An American high schools graduation ceremony. B. The opening ceremony of a sports meeting. C. A presentation of college diplomas. D. A US colleges farewell party.2. According to the passage, which of the following statement is true? A. Hollywood superstars went to attend the ceremony. B. Every single senior wanted to be a superstar at the ceremony.C. When each graduate got his or her diploma, there were cheers.D. All graduates would treasure the diploma for the rest of their lives.2. Which of the following statements about the author is FALSE?A. She was one of the graduates.B. She was a foreign exchange student.C. She was excited to receive her diploma.D. She felt it great to be at the ceremony3. From the text, we can infer that_.A. foreign exchange students could get a diplomaB. a diploma guarantees a bright futureC. the ceremony symbolizes the beginning of a new stage in lifeD. everyone felt excited at the presentation of the diplomas4. We know from the text that the author _.A. felt lost about the futureB. was actually one of the graduatesC. received a diploma on May 10D. felt it boring to be at the presentation ceremony B During the past Spring Festival, many children may have received red packets from their families. But Xing Pu, a 40-year-old economist, is asking the government to give red packets to every Chinese citizen. Xing suggested the government give out 1,000 yuan to each Chinese since the government income has increased rapidly in recent years. He said his suggestion would allow everyone to directly enjoy the fruits of the countrys economic success, help the lower-income groups deal with rising prices and increase consumption around the country. In recent years, we have seen the government carry out a series of pro-poor and pro-rural policies, including increasing spending on public health care and calling off the agricultural tax. But the lower-income group still needs more help while being hit hard by an 11-year high in prices. Xing said while making the draft, he has borrowed many ideas from practices in countries like the Unites States and Singapore, whose governments offered cash handouts to their citizens earlier this year as the result of a surplus in government income. As for in China, We can even encourage the rich to donate their 1, 000 yuan red packets to the poor， said Xing. Although Xings suggestion has gained wide support among ordinary Chinese on the Internet, many other economists criticized it as unpractical. Even Xing himself admitted he made the suggestion without any careful calculation. But they agreed with Xings point that the growing economic pie should be shared among the people. “To better use the increase of money, handing out money is not a solution that holds good for all time. It could be better to improve the public service or cut the price of energy use in daily life，” said Qiao Xinsheng, an economic professor.5. Xing Pu suggested that the government give out one thousand yuan to each Chinese because .A. the poor should get help from the richB. the government should increase consumptionC.all people should benefit from the economic growthD. the government should carry out pro-rural policies6. What has the government done to help the lower-income group?A. Spending less on public health careB. Reducing the agricultural taxC.Handing out money to every ChineseD. Carrying out policies to assist the poor7.According to some experts, what is better than giving out money?A. Supplying food to everyone every dayB. Cutting the price of energy use in daily lifeC.Controlling the rising pricesD.Increasing the government1 s income8.Xing Pus idea of giving red packets to every Chinese citizen mainly came from_ .A.customs of the Spring FestivalB. what other nations have doneC.the increase in public health careD. the high prices in the past yearsCMicrosoft founder Bill Gates has opened up about being a parent, stating that 13 is an appropriate age for a childs first cell phone. The 57-year-old, father-of-three, revealed on the Today Show that his children Jennifer and Rory were not allowed to have phones until their thirteenth birthday and his youngest daughter Phoebe is still waiting for one. “Weve decided in our family that its 13 where you can get a phone,” the self-made billionaire explained. He said as a result his children often returned home from school complaining:”All the other kids have it. Im the only one without it, and its so embarrassing.” He was asked if he would keep the passwords to himself in his family. Mr Gates said that he wouldnt do that to Jennifer,16,who he described as “independent”. He admitted that monitoring online activity is “a very tricky issue for parents now”. Despite their vast wealth Mr and Mrs Gates, who live inLakeMedina, just outsideSeattle,Washington, have said they want to give their children as normal an upbringing as possible.It was previously reported that their youngsters have to complete household chores and are given a modest amount of pocket money. And in 2010 Mr Gates said that he intends to give most of his $ 61 billion fortune away rather than hand it down. “That will be good both for my kids and society,” he said.Also during the Today Interview with host Matt Lauer, Mr Gates, who stepped down from Microsoft in 2008 to concentrate on philanthropy , said that helping others gives him same excitement as creating software. “What you really feel is what youve achieved. If a piece of software gets out there and lots of people love itit lets them get their work done in better waysthats exciting,”he explained. Mr Gates was previously the richest man in the world, but he got shifted down a spot in 2010 after he decided to give away $28 billion to good causes. 9.This passage is mainly about _A Bill Gatess experiences in Microsoft until 2008B Bill Gatess strict parenting rules to his childrenC Bill Gatess family expense in everyday lifeD the relationship between Bill Gates and his children10.Why do Gates children often complain when returning from school?A. Because they dont attend school at all.B. Because they dont understand why their father gives money away.C. Because they dont have enough pocket money.D.

Health is wealth.B. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.C. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.D. Wisdom in the mind is better than money in the hand.D Holidays are really important. Many of us will have childhood memories of summer holidays where we were taken away from home to experience new environments and learn in different ways. But holidays are expensive and, for those on low wages or living on benefits, they are often unobtainable. Even the cheapest holidays require travel and other additional costs that are difficult for many families to meet. For working parents, the long summer break can be a very difficult problem for childcare. When an annual leave allowance amounting to only five weeks, there is a need to spread this across the year. Couples can find themselves taking leave in turn in order to care for children who are on holiday. For some , this makes even an affordable family holiday difficult. The schools that I visit in Nottingham are full of experienced staff committed to giving our children a caring and inspiring learning environment. The number of children receiving free school meals is quite large in Nottingham and many schools have breakfast clubs to make sure that children get a healthy start to the day. Most schools undertake programs of group or individual educational support. Schools also have an important role in safeguarding childrens welfare through the ongoing touch and support with their pupils. During the long summer holidays, much of this is missed. While teachers are holidaying in the UK, many of their pupils spend the whole six weeks on the street where they live. The lack of free school meals for six weeks can result in pressure on a family budget and an inability to afford the inspiring experiences that help children to continue their learning. In setting out its plans for a five-term year, Nottingham City Council (委员会)is seeking to reduce the summer holiday down lo four and a half weeks, with a more balanced five terms of roughly eight weeks, each followed by a two-week break. We believe this will give real “down time for school staff and pupils alike but will be short enough not to cause a real break in learning. We acknowledge that this change may be difficult for some school staff, particularly whose own children are educated in other authorities. However, this must be weighed against the benefits for city children for whom we all have the greatest duty of care.13. The passage is probably written by_ .A. an experienced teacher B. a working parentC. an inspired student D. a city council member14. The underlined word they in the second paragraph refers to “_ “ .A. environments B. holidays C. wages D. benefits15. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. working parents can enjoy a five-week break to care for their childrenB. the suggested plans for a five-term school year can hardly be carried outC. the long summer holiday gives teachers and students real down timeD. some school staff will say “ No to the plans for a shorter summer holiday第二节 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。How to teach a child to respect As a child grows out of being an infant and begins to notice and react to the world around him, you may find yourself wondering how you possibly impart all of the things that he needs to become a responsible, respectful adult._16_ A child who learns to respect all he meets not only receives respect from others, but also learns to respect himself as well.Show your child respect. This is perhaps the best way to teach your child how torespect others. Listen to your child by giving him your full attention and he will learn to listen to you, understanding how important this is in communication. 17 The more you say “please” and “thank you” to your child, the more likely he will learn to use them with you and others. Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation. Agree to disagree. 18 Explain your decision so that he will understand yourreasoning and expect respectful responses. Disagreeing with you doesnt equate to disobedience.Control your impulse to overact. When a situation arises between you and yourchild that requires calmness, keep in mind that you are supposed to be modeling correct behaviour. 19 Praise, praise, praise! So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how tocorrect it that the accomplishments are not celebrated enough. 20 A. Teach manners by using polite requests and responses.B. Try to remember that a child wont always agree with you.C. Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life.D. If he sees you lose temper, he is more likely to respond that way in future.E. A child may act like he pleases, but will respect being given limits.F. When you see your child exhibit respectful behaviour, make sure he knows just how proud you are of him.G. Setting a good example is the best way to start a child on the path to respect.第三部分 英语知识运用 （共两节 满分45分）第一节 完形填空 In 2012, I had just recovered form a serious illness when I received an invitation to a writers conference in Orlando, Florida.
