Here is some advice on healthy eating. Eat with others. It can help you to see others healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious. Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirstysometimes you are just thirsty, you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full. Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you dont eat for the past ten hours your body needs food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast. Eat healthy snacks like fruits yogurt or cheese. We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, its a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesnt mean that you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal. Dont eat dinner late. With our busy life, we always put off eating dinner until the last minute. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance todigestmost of the food before you rest for the next 810 hours.21. The writer gives us pieces of advice on healthy eating.A. 4 B. 5 C. 6 D. 722. Which snack is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Fruits. B. Yogurt. C. Chips. D. Ice cream.23. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Snacks are bad for our health.B. We should keep eating until we are full.C. Dinner is the most important meal of the day.D. We should have dinner at least 3 hours before going to bed.24. The passage mainly tells us _.A. where to eat B. how to eat C. why to eat D. when to eatBAll over the world mothers and fathers teach their children manners. Other children may have manners that are not like yours. There are all kinds of manners.Many years ago, children who had good manners were seen and not heard. They kept quiet if grown-ups were talking. Today, well-mannered children have more freedom.Sometimes good manners in one place are bad manners in other places. Suppose you are a visitor in thelandofMongolia. Some friends ask you to eat with them. What kind of manners do they want you to have? They want you to give a loud “burp(打嗝)” after you finish eating. Burping would show that you like your food. In some countries, if you give a loud burp, you are told to say “Excuse me, please.” In many places people like to eat together. But in some parts ofPolynesiait is bad manners to be seen eating at all. People show good manners by turning their backs on others while they eat. What are manners like in an East African town? The people try not to see you. They are being polite. You may see a friend. He may not see you at all. If you are polite, you will sit down beside him. You will wait until he finishes what he is doing. Then he will talk to you. Suppose you visit a friend inArabia. You should walk behind the other tents until you come to his tent. If you pass in front of the other tents, you will be asked into each one. The people will ask you to eat with them. And it is bad manners if you say no.Manners are different all over the world. But it is good to know that all manners begin in the same way. People need ways to show that they want to be friends.25. How did polite children behavemany years ago? A. By looking into adults eyes while talking B. By keeping silent while adults were talking C. By slipping into the house without being heard D. By not opening their mouths until spoken to26. Which custom should we follow in order to look well-mannered? A. Saying “Excuse me” on burping inMongolia B. Inviting guests to dinner together inPolynesia C. Talking with a friend before he completes things inEast Africa D. Accepting an eating invitation inArabia27. What can we infer from the text? A. Hear much, speak little B. Love me, love my dog C. When inRomedo as the Romans do D. Do what you ought to and come what canC Only a few people in Toronto have the luck to live within walking distance from their workplace. For the rest of us, commuting(乘车上下班) is a rather unpleasant daily necessity.So how do you avoid a traffic jam in Toronto? You can do it in the old way and listen to one of the radio stations that give regular updates about the traffic situation in Torontos streets. Seeing the big picture of Torontos traffic and knowing when and where heavy traffic occurs is a must. From my own experience, there are situations where a quick decision can help you make it in time for an event or a meeting. Thats why we prepared three short videos showing the overall traffic situation in Toronto from dawn to night. You can click them and watch.With the help of “Google Maps”，where you can watch the live traffic density all over the world and average traffic data based on past conditions, we were able to provide you with traffic maps for a typical(平常的) Friday.Friday traffic in Toronto is quite fast in the early morning, with only a few hot spots showing up at the major junctions(交叉点) at 7：00 am. The morning traffic jam starts light at 7：30 and the traffic gradually slows down to reach a breaking point at 8：30. The roads are quite free afterwards, only Allen Road is likely to be jammed around lunchtime from 11：30 am. to 12：00 noon. It comes as no surprise that Friday afternoon brings heavy traffic as early as 1：00 pm., mainly on the Don Valley Parkway. You wont have a good time getting away from the city from 4：00 pm. to 6：30 pm., as there is a good chance to get caught in a traffic jam. The traffic in Toronto is quite heavy on a Friday night. I hope you will have a nice Friday night in the city and a safe journey home this Friday!28. By saying “commuting is a rather unpleasant daily necessity”，the writer refers to the fact that_.Abuses are usually very crowdedBthey are often stuck in traffic jamsCthey have to travel a long way to workDthey usually cannot do anything on the way to work29According to Paragraph 2, when you are in a traffic jam，you should_.Ado nothing but to wait patientlyBreport your situation to a radio stationCrelax and enjoy some good radio programsDmake a quick decision and find another way to go30What is the last paragraph mainly about?AWhat the traffic in Toronto is like for a typical Friday.BHow to avoid heavy traffic on Friday.CWhy the traffic is terrible on Friday.DWhat “Google Maps” can do for us.31Where is this passage taken from? A. A TV program B. A radio program. C. A website. D. A travel booklet.DIn a computer age，a broadband Internet connection is very popular now. Whether cable or mobile broadband，todays connections are many times faster than those in the early days. Videos play smoothly, complex websites load quickly，and files download much faster than ten years agoAnd the files are much bigger tooTheres a hidden problem：You have to live near enough to a major city to get broadband Internet. If you dont，its slow dial-up access for you. And for those living really far out，there may be no Internet access at allTechnology experts often talk about the “last mile” problem，which refers to the difficulty of bringing Internet access to remote locationsIn cities and suburbs(郊区)，its relatively easy to provide access for everyoneIt is much more difficult to deliver access to those living far from cities，especially in developing countriesInternet service providers, for their part，have been reluctant to provide access to sparsely(稀疏地) populated areasThe handful of Internet users they would reach wouldnt cover the expense.But every year, technological advancements allow of more and more Internet users. Most broadband connections today run over existing cable TV and telephone lines although these technologies arent available everywhereSome companies have delivered the Internet over standard power lines. Advancements in cheaper more efficient fiber optics cables(光纤电缆 )promise to bring extremely fast Internet connections to more usersStill, the “last mile” problem remains hard to deal withThere will always be somewhere that doesnt have an affordable broadband connectionBut someday that might not matterIf the rapid progress in cell phone technology is any indication，it may not be too long before an Internet connection simply follows you wherever you go.32. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Internet connections have been popular everywhere B. Internet service providers are willing to care about rural(农村的) customers C. The problem of Internet access hasnt been completely dealt with. D. Computer cant become popular in developing countries33. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us that technological advancements_. A. make TV and telephone available everywhere B. bring great change to peoples everyday life C. bring faster Internet connections to users D .make it possible for more people to use the Internet34. What may eventually settle the “last mile” problem? A. The broadband connections getting faster B. The rapid progress in cell phone technology C. More and more Internet connections D. More and more Internet users.35.The best title for this passage may be_ A. Internet Connection Problems B .Internet Connections Need Improving C. Progress in Internet Connections D .Internet Connections Today第二节 (共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项是多余选项。 What you do each morning affects your entire day. The choices that we repeatedly make determine the life we live. 36 Manage your energy, not your time. If you think about it, youll probably realize that you are better at doing certain tasks at certain times. For example, my creative energy is highest in the morning, so thats when I do my writing each day. However, I spend my afternoons on phone calls, and emails, which dont need my creative energy to be high. 37 What task is that energy best suited for? Prepare the night before. It is really necessary to spend a few minutes each night organizing your todo list for tomorrow. When I do it , Ill outline the article Im going to write the next day and develop a short list of the most important items for me to do. 38 39 Sounds simple, yet nobody does it. It took me a while to get over the urge(渴望) to open my inbox, but finally I realized that everything can wait a few hours. Nobody is going to email you about a true emergency (a death in the family, etc.), so leave your email alone for the first few hours of each day. Turn your phone off. This reduces the urge to check text messages. This simple method reduces the possibility that you waste time on meaningless tasks. Youve got 25, 000 mornings. 40 A. Dont open email until noon.B. What will you do with each one?C. Leave your phone in another room.D. What type of energy do you have in the morning?E. Try your best to finish your work in the morning.F. It takes 10 minutes that night and saves 3 hours the next day.G. Here are the methods that Ive found to get the most out of my morning.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）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。 For me, Fridays meant a trip to a senior nursing home downtown.
