Examining trade and immigrationBNowadays, top performing sportsmen earn huge amount of money as compared to people in other professions. Some people consider it a rational approach. However, there are a few who think it is unjustifiable. Some people think sports professionals with outstanding performance should be overpaid as it is a short-lived career which requires rigorous hard work as compared to other professions. This field demands a strict, disciplined life with extensive physical efforts, consistent practice, a fixed diet schedule to bring pride and glory to the country. Due to such tough requirements, people in this field have an average career span of 10-15 years. As sports professionals have limited tenure, they should be rewarded with high monetary gains to acknowledge their excellent performance.However, there are a few who think that top performing sportsmen and women should not have high salaries as it is a biased approach. They feel that there are other critical professions which are more valuable to the country as compared to the sports field. For example, the professions, like doctors, social worker, works for the betterment of the society. Their efforts not only help to reduce the social issues prevailing in the community, but they also contribute in providing a healthy environment. As a result, they significantly contribute to the growth of the country. Henceforth, their efforts should be equally recognized along with the sports professionals.In my opinion, although there are some logical reasons for huge earnings of the top performing players, people from other professions should also be equally appreciated in terms of lucrative monetary benefits for their outstanding contribution. As all the professions are critical in their own field and contributes to the overall development of the country.To conclude, sports people delivering excellent performance should not be overpaid in comparison to other professionals who make a significant contribution to the society.24A key reason for overpaying sports professionals with outstanding performance is that .Athey work harder than othersBthey have to keep a strict diet Ctheir career is relatively shortDthey meet tough requirements25What can be inferred from Paragraph 3？ASome people look down on sportsmenBValuing sports can lead to prejudiceCNot all professions can get great incomesDNot all professions can get great incomes26Whats the authors attitude towards overpaying top sportsmen?AOpposingBSupportiveCAmbiguousDUnconcerned27What does the passage mainly talk about?APeoples various attitudes to top sportsmenBWhether top sportsmen should be overpaid CTop sportsmen bring honor to their homeland DOverpaying top sportsmen harms other professionsCComing to the end of my assistantship in Barcelona, I start to think about what the future might hold.Its been seven months and a few days since I arrived here and things have changed so much in what some might call a short period of time. when I first arrived in Terrassa I was excited and nervous to start a new adventure in a country I love. The first few days seem so long ago now, trying to find a place to live, organizing my timetable with the schools, meeting new people.However, a fortnight later, the excitement started to fade and I began to spend more than a few nights thinking about family and friends back home, wondering if I should be there with them. Everything started to change after meeting some new friends and spending good time with them, eating together and seeing new places as a group. I suppose we should never forget how important it is to have good people in your life, because they can make a difference.Coming back to Terrassa after visiting home for Christmas felt like returning to a second home, to a place that was mine with people I cared about. Things got even busier and more people came into my life; new friends, romance and a whole lot of good food flowed by in what seems to have been weeks, not months.Now, looking forward, there are some decisions to make. Should I return home to Scotland and move on with life there or try to extend my time here, perhaps make it something permanent? Experiencing other cultures or learning about the world is such an important thing to do if you have the means.My advice from my experience so far is to travel and try new things whenever you get the opportunity. You may find somewhere you were always supposed to be.28Why did the author go to Barcelona?ATo meet his curiosityBTo conduct his workCTo begin a new adventure DDo Experience a new culture 29When did the author begin to feel homesick?AAs soon as he set foot on TerrassaBWhen he was considering his future CAfter a few weeks stay in TerrassaDWhen he was trying to find a living place30What is the author unsure about?AWhere to spend his future life BHow to enjoy his life in Terrassa CWhat to do to to extend his time in Terrassa.DWhether to celebrate Christmas with locals31What has the author learned from his experience?AHaving a clear idea of oneself is important BTraveling alone brings a great many benefitsCLearning about the world makes life more colorfulDKeeping an open mind toward new things is necessaryDAs the days get shorter and the chilly weather rolls in , we all want to curl up in a blanket and hibernate until spring rolls around. But making time to get outside in the sun, even when its cold out, could have bigger mood benefits than you might realize.While the link betweensunshine and mental healthis nothing new, new research from Brigham Young University(BYU) has shown that the association may be even stronger than previously realized. It finds that sunlight exposure is by far the greatest weather-related factor determining mental health outcomes. In other words: more sunshine, more happiness.For the study, a psychologist, a physicist and a statistician from BYU teamed up to compare daily environmental data from the universitys Physics and Astronomy Weather Station with emotional health data archived by day for 16,452 adult therapy patients who were being treated at the BYU Counseling and Psychological Services Center.Exposure to sunlight is a significant factor in seasonal affective disorder. Researchhas shownthat the brain produces more of the feel-good neurotransmitter serotonin on sunny days than it does on darker days. Whats more, lack of sunlight is linked withlower vitamin D levels, which in turn has been correlated with depression and low energy. If youre getting enough sun, your emotions should remain relatively stable, the researchers found. But as the amount of sunlight in the day is reduced, levels of emotional pain can soar. Other weather variables including temperature, pollution and rain were not found to have an impact on mental health.“We were surprised that many of the weather and pollution variables we included in the study were not significantly correlated with clients scores on the distress measure once we had accounted for suntime,” Dr. Mark Beecher, a professor of psychology at the university and the studys lead author, told The Huffington Post. “People tend to associate rainy days, pollution, and other meteorological phenomena with sadness or depression, but we did not find that.”32What does the author suggest we do in Paragraph 1?ARealized the benefits of sunshine BAvoid hibernating in springtimeCCurl up in a blanket in cold weather DEnjoy sunshine even in cold weather33The underlined word “soar”in Paragraph 5 most probably means “”?Arise sharplyBvary unstablyCdrop slightlyDchange greatly34What does the passage say about the research does by BYU?AIt is done on normal adults of various agesBIt is carried out by Dr Mark Beecher aloneCIt concludes the sunshine means happinessDIt finds that temperature affects mental health 35What can be inferred from the passage?ALower vitamin D levels are helpful in keeping us energeticBThe research findings are inconsistent with the popular belief CThe more sunshine we get, the less excited we are likely to feelDThe link between sunshine and mental health was unknown before.第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分。共 10 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。With modern technology, much written communication tends to focus on the keyboard, but handwriting is still a necessary and important skill. 36 Here are some tips for you to improve your handwriting.Examine Your Handwriting 37 Look through your writing to decide what makes it difficult to read or what makes it unattractive. Perhaps you write your letters too small. Check on spacing of letters and words, and proper formation of letters. If your letters are small, put more effort into writing larger letters. If certain letters trip you up, practice those letters separately and within words.Write CorrectlyPositioning and technique play a role in how your handwriting looks. Hold the pen between your thumb and first two fingers so that it rests against your fingers. Hold it firmly enough to control the tip but not so hard that it hurts your fingers. Lighter pressure on the paper helps you create smooth lines and focus on your letter formation. 38 39 Letters are formed from several basic strokes(笔划). Practice those strokes separately to get your hand used to forming them. Strokes found in letters include vertical lines, horizontal lines, and circles. Build on those to practice specific letters.Write for a PurposeTeach young children handwriting in meaningful contexts. Use that same idea by picking up a pen to write lists and notes by hand instead of typing. Keep a journal daily with slow, correct strokes. 40 These true and sincere writing opportunities make the practice meaningful.A. Build on Basics.B. Practice makes perfectC. Focus on improving your correctness instead of speedD. Writing at a slower speed also helps you focus on letter formationE. Put a handwritten letter in the mail to surprise a friend or a relativeF. Handwriting requires your brain, eyes and hands to work together to form letters.G. Before you can improve your handwriting, you need to know where youre falling apart.第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节 （共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文， 从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。In the 1950s, I was an only child of a single mother , living in a modest cottage in New Zealand. There was no TV and very little 41 to spend on entertainment. 42 we had our books and enjoyed 43 better than reading aloud to each other.
