The need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. Friends played a big part in forming our personalities(性格). As adults，it is still important for us to have friends. True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when were foolish. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are feeling down. They are people we arent afraid of telling our secret wishes to or what is really on our minds. Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends offer acceptance and emotional(情感的)support. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or giving us a lift when we need one. Friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on. Friends also help us reduce stress. Not only do they listen to us when we feel stressed, but they also discuss what is stressing us. Sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home. For a short time, we can lose ourselves in a pleasant activity and perhaps laugh and breathe more easily.24. What is the best title for the passage?A. How to Reduce StressB. How to Make New FriendsC. The Importance of FriendsD. The Qualities of Good Friends25. The underlined word “stimulate” in Paragraph 2 probably means_.A. educateB. encourageC. surpriseD. dislike26.

Only one in 1,000 baby sea turtles survive to adulthood (成年). From its home in the sand, it breaks its egg with an egg tooth. Its mother is not there to help it. Instead, it is greeted by crabs, coyotes, and dogs waiting to eat it for dinner. To survive, the baby turtle must hide in the sand until night. Then, it moves slowly to the sea.The small turtle must swim hard to reach the ocean waters. In the sea, it tries hard to find food. It must also keep itself from being food for fish.As dangerous as the sea turtles life is in the natural world, its most dangerous enemies are humans. The rubbish left by humans in the ocean causes problems for the small green sea turtle. A little turtle might eat a piece of plastic (塑料) in the sea. It might also eat oil on the oceans surface. Young turtles also get caught in fishing nets. There are laws against hunting sea turtles. Still, many are hunted, both for their meat and for their shells (壳). All of these dangers must be prevented.Sea turtles that do survive to grow into adulthood go through many changes. For example, adult green sea turtles weigh about 500 pounds. They stop eating jellyfish and other meat and eat only plants. And they may plan a trip to go back home again. A mother sea turtle goes back to the beach where she was born. This is the only place where she will lay eggs. Even if it has been forty years since she was a baby, she always knows her way back home.28. Why do baby turtles move to the sea at night?A.

Although its probably no surprise that French fries areamong the worst foods you can eat,most of us still dont believe it. After all, it doesnt hurt to eat some every once in a whileright? But some people feel guilty (内疚的)to eat French fries and they have a good reason for that.According to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, peoples guilty feeling may be well-placed. The research, which researched potato eating in 4,400 older people between ages of 45 and 79 over the course of eight years, shows that eating fried potatoes at least twice a week highly increases our risk of death.But hold up! Before you pletely stop eating potatoes, you should know that it is found that eating potatoes overall ( even a lot of them! ) wouldnt kill you. Instead, its the type of potato that makes all the difference between life and death.Eating fried potatoes like French fries at least twice per week increased the risk of death in the study. On the other hand, potatoes that were not fried, such as boiled and baked potatoes, were less likely to cause death.Why? Potatoes have healthy levels of fiber (纤维)and vitamins(维生素)，so you can partakewithout feeling bad. But when it es to the fried food, you might need to think again. French fries usually have lots of fat and added salt, leading to weight growth. Still, when all is said and done，connection isnt totally equal to causation (因果关系）. More research is needed before certainly concluding that eating French fries alone increases the risk of death.Luckily, potatoes are still considered as one of your suggested three to five servings of vegetables per day. Just try not to eat the fatty ones, if you can.32. Whats the text mainly about?A. Peoples reasons for feeling guilty.B. The worst foods that should be avoided.C. A research about potatoes effects on treating illnesses.D. A study on the relation between French fries and death.33. From the findings of the study, we learn that_.A. potatoes arent good for everyoneB. many foods can mean life and deathC. we shouldnt eat one type of food too muchD. how food is cooked is important to our health34. What does the underlined word “partake” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Share.B. Cook.C. Eat.D. Buy.35. Which of the following can make French fries unhealthy?A. Damaged fiber.B. Bad potatoes.C. Much fat and salt in them.D. The oil used to fry them.阅读理解 七选五（本大题共5小题，共10分） How To Learn English Effectively Have you ever tried to study English, but it turned out its too difficult for you? Well, let me tell you that the language is easy once you keep in mind these golden rules: Always study and review phrases, not individual words. Did somebody give you a dictionary when you started learning your native language as a child? No? Then why do you keep using it when studying a foreign language? Memorizing individual words has absolutely no sense without the context. 36 .Dont study grammar. When you start thinking about what construction to use, you begin to stammer, stop sounding natural. Your responses should bee automatic to master the language, so instead of studying theory take more practice! When you speak, you dont have time for considering what tense is appropriate, one hundred percent correct. 37 Grammar is important in writing, not in speaking. 38 One of the most mon mistakes when studying a foreign language is relying solely on textbooks. Thanks to them you may know a lot of grammar and vocabulary, but youre still not capable of conducting a conversation. It is because you should learn English by listening and not by reading. If you listen more, youll grasp useful vocabulary and grammar without even realizing it and without memorizing! Learn English deeply. Remember its always about quality, not about quantity. 39 When memorizing the phrases (remember the first rule!) slowly, you put them into the deeper parts of your brain so they dont fade away quickly. Listen and answer, not listen and repeat. 40 If you practice listening with a podcast or a video, pause it every 20 30 second and summarize what has been said. You have to think quickly, so you stop bothering yourself with useless grammar and start to speak the real, living language!A. Studying grammar is the quickest way to slow down your progress.B. Instead of learning dozens of new words in a short time, try repeating one, but dozens of times.C. But you dont need to think about that.D. Learning whole phrases is much more effective.E. You should answer the questions asked by the speaker instead of mindlessly retelling his words.F. Use only authentic English materials.G. Learn with your ears, not with your eyes.第三部分 完形填空（本大题共20小题，共30分）Once there lived a rich merchant(商人) and a poor shoemaker in the same house.
