as i thought about it, only one answer came to my mind: ramen noodles (速食拉面).it happened years ago during hurricane sandy when 3 feet of heavy snow hit the mountains of my home. power lines were down. we had no heat, no lights, no television, no telephone, and no internet. my children and i were stuck in the house, trembling in the cold. the meat in the freezer had already gone bad and any food that wasnt spoiled had already been eaten. all the stores were closed due to the storm too. i felt weak from not eating and when i looked in my youngest sons eyes, i could see how hungry he was as well.thankfully, though, i still had several bags of ramen noodles. taking them and an old pot, i walked over to my dads house. he had his propane grill (丙烷烤架）to cook with. i put the noodles in the pot and watched them slowly boil. struggling against the snow back home, i held the pot gingerly. then i poured myself, my daughter and sons each a big bowl of noodles. we ate and ate until our hunger faded and then sat around the table and smiled at each other. it was the meal i ever had. we all felt so happy at that moment and our joy only grew greater when the power came back on later that night.i learned something special too from that meal. i learned that the greatest happiness comes from a grateful heart. since then i have been more and more thankful to everything we have in life.21. during hurricane sandy, _ a. the authors family suffered starvation b. the author didnt have any stocked food in the freezer c. the author lost contact with the outside world completely. d. the authors house was destroyed by the heavy snow.22. what does the underlined word “gingerly” in paragraph 3 mean?

if you do, read on. ask the coach what you can do to help the team. this is probably one of the most important things you can do, as it shows you are committed to doing whatever it takes to help the team succeed. if you put the team in front of your personal goals, you will be a player that all coaches and teammates love to have. play to your strengths. not everybody can be the scorer, so do what youre good at. if you try to do things that you are not good at, youll find yourself on the bench. if you are great at the rebound(抢断篮板球）and playing defense, do those things when youre on the court. strengthen your strengths and work on your weaknesses in practice. _ besides helping you improve, a coach will notice this and pick you above somebody else who may not work as hard. dont be afraid to get your bottom on the ground and dive for the ball after some loose balls.always box out. nothing will get you to the bench quicker than not boxing out. coaches understand the importance of rebounding. if you do it well, youll rapidly increase your chances of playing.make the extra pass. coaches love it when you make the extra pass. you will also find yourself getting more passes from your teammates, for they recognize and appreciate your unselfishness. basketball is so much fun when played unselfishly. you also win a lot more games too. but dont be too unselfish. if you have a good shot, you can take it.be a great teammate. if your teammates like you, they will be more likely to play better with you. a coach may notice the chemistry and get you in the game. why do you think teammates of kevin garnett play better?24. in paragraph 2, youre advised to let the coach know that _ a. you badly want to help the team succeed. b. youre loved by all coaches and teammates c. you dont know how to help the team succeed d. youre determined to achieve your personal goals25. according to paragraph 3, what should you avoid doing on the court?

a. robots b. the wearable devices c. the 3-d electronic product d. internet- connected home devices30. which of the following is true according to the text? a. a new 3-d printer is much more expensive now b. a necklace can help call for help if necessary c. the electronic devices on show are all american products d. home devices can keep in contact with each other31. what can we learn from the last paragraph? a. its against the law to use a virtual version of a person b. new technology may be put to bad purposes c. some robots are invented to replace teachers d. robots are a new exhibition at this years show.d on christmas eve, santa claus will consume the minds of children across the world. many parents thoughts also turn there, but for different reasons. parents of young children wonder whether they should promoted the story of the old man in the red suit, while parents of older children wonder what theyre going to say when their child asks for the truth. believing in impossible beings such as santa claus may exercise childrens reasoning skills. the kind of thinking involved in imagining how an old man could fly through the sky carrying a heavy sleigh(雪橇）may well be the same kind of thinking required for imagining a solution to global warming or a way to cure a disease. this kind of thinking is at the root of all scientific discoveries and inventions. in fact, there is often a period during which children become increasingly less sure about santas existence. toward the end of this period, children may actually look for evidence to confirm their doubts. this is where parents can help. a parent who had disguised her handwriting on the presents from santa can begin to use her own handwriting. once children begin to doubt, they become very scientific about the whole thing, and in some cases even set up their own experiments. in the end, children will feel that they have figured it out by themselves. upon making the discovery, they become part of the adult world; they are “in on the secret”. though children get all the presents, theyre not the only ones who obtain all the benefits of the santa tradition. getting involved in cultural stories allows adults to happily recall their own childhood sense of wonder and to create fun opportunities for their loved ones. in the end, the whole family benefits.32. what is stressed in the second paragraph? a. the tradition of santa claus b. the importance of imagination c. the way of developing reasoning skills d. the significance of believing in impossible things33. when children doubt the real existence of santa claus, parents should_ a. advise them to stop b. try to explain it to them c. stop tricking them d. apologize for misleading them34. in the process of finding out the truth about santa claus, children _ a. will feel disappointed b. develop their minds a lot c. learn to keep a secret from adults d. come to face life in a confident way35. which of the following will the author probably agree with? a. the santa tradition does good to parents as well b. childhood memories should be passed on c. children should know the truth about santa claus as early as possible d. parents and childrens minds are occupied with santa claus for the same reason 第2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。shopping for groceries is an important part of life. you need to buy food to keep your fridge well- stocked. however, many people cannot spend their money smartly. 36 if you are serious about enjoying a stress- free lifestyle, heres how you can save money and still buy the right groceries.go generic(一般的）you should try to avoid buying brand-name items as much as possible, especially when shopping for food. most supermarkets have their own generic brands that cost much less than the top-rated items. 37 make a list.the possible way to overspend on your shopping trip is to go shopping without any idea what you need to buy. 38 write down everything you think you will need. only buy what is on the list. you will save a lot of money that way. 39 if you shop on an empty stomach, you are very likely to buy foods that are less healthy but “look” very delicious. you will often overspend, buying more of certain foods than you actually need. always make sure that you eat before going shopping, or at least have a snack before you start filling your cart.buy raw fruits and vegetables. 20 you can make your own applesauce at home. the truth is that raw fruits and vegetables are always the healthier choice, so its in your best interest to buy them as much as possible. try to only buy raw foods whenever possible.a. buy in quantity.b. eat before shopping.c. they have difficulty in making ends meet.d. a can of applesauce will often be more expensive than apple.e. youll find that theyre roughly the same quality, but far cheaper.f. before you head out to the supermarket, search through your fridge.g. eating healthy foods can actually save you money, according to a study.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节， 满分45分）第1节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）i recently saw a show on television about alcatraz prison. it was a famous building that 41 some of the most dangerous criminals of all time. the cameras 42 the host doing the show and he explained that many men had tried to 43 , but only one was known to have succeed. the prison was built on an island, so it was nearly 44 to escape.this show was so much like an article i had just finished 45 . the article is about the other prisons that are 46 confining(限制的）in this world. but those prisons have doors that are never locked, and escape is not only 47 , it is actually possible as well. 48 the host of the show continued to talk, i could clearly see the similarities in both 49 . first, there was alcatraz, which was man- made and 50 on an island to keep 51 away from the rest of the world. then there was the other prison, which is self made and 52 to keep us away from the rest of the world where we might be able to enjoy the best that this life has to 53 . that second prison is called 54 .the author of the article says habit is 55 ourselves and our environment as a prison or paradise(天堂）the 56 fact is that far more people are confined by their 57 than people who are fed by them. many of us are locked inside a prison by 58 thinking. and yet all we have to do to set ourselves free is to renew our mind. 59 doing this, we can change our habit of thinking and renew our life at the same time. dont remain 60 inside a prison with no locks, no doors and no guards. escape today.41. a blocked b housed c attracted d frightened42. a interrupted b found c followed d caught43. a escape b hide c apologize d argue44. a compulsory b unnecessary c impossible d dangerous45. a reading b writing c carrying d sorting46. a simply b equally c finally d secretly47. a ignored b recorded c forbidden d encouraged48. a. as b. although c. if d. because 49. a articles b prisons c shows d actions50. a planned b developed c placed d constructed51. a visitors b man c criminals d life52. a begins b needs c expects d tends53. a offer b stand c start d save54. a gesture b habit c interest d custom55. a keeping up b sending out c taking in d thinking of56. a sad b useless c basic d main57. a mistakes b thoughts c difficulties d theories58. a wishful b clear c deep d negative59. a. for b. on c. by d. except 60. a silent b bothered c trapped d content第ii卷第三部分 英语知识运用 （共两节， 满分45分）第2节 （共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面材料， 在空白处填入恰当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。 mr. and mrs. jackson worked in the same company. the man was skillful and earned twice as much, if not more than, 61 his wife. but he had to give
