things. but if it hadnt been for a crowded restaurant, i wouldnt have ever noticed valeri. valeri was a new student. she walked to class with her books against her chest and her head down. she talked only when the teacher asked her a question. after a month at our school, she hadnt made any friend.one day at lunch, most tables being full, i had nowhere to sit. valeri sat alone, book in hand. i walked over to her, “is that a good book?” valeri gave a small nod and went back to reading. “whats it about?” i asked. after seconds of silence, she looked at me, her eyes shining, “well, its about a dragon! this boy, eragon, finds this dragon egg when he goes playing one day. he thinks its a rock! the egg hatches（孵化）and eragon hides the dragon from his cousin and uncle until it gets too big .”two weeks later, i was sitting in the auditorium（礼堂）enjoying the talent show. then a shy girl walked on stage. i recognized her immediately. valeri held a violin in one hand and a bow in the other. she started to play. the notes formed a soft, sweet tune. the auditorium fell completely silent until we realized the music was finished. i smiled to myself. valeri wasnt just “a quiet girl”. she knew about wonderful books and could play the violin like nothing id ever heard. like a butterfly, she was beautiful and amazing when you looked closely.21. the author went to sit beside valeri because _.

course at knnet school, the social-science teacher adam smith guides his students through the “married life”. unlike the traditional course, adam makes his students experience the real problems married ones may face like housing and child care. “no one tells kids about money-managing problems,” says adam.each student should act out in ten weeks what normally takes couples ten years to finish. in the first week, one member of each couple is asked to get an after school job a real one. during the term, the income rules their life-style. in the third week, the couples must find an apartment they can afford.in the fifth week, the couples “have a baby” and then struggle to cover the costs of baby clothes and furniture. in week eight, the marriage comes to the breaking point by such disaster as a mother-in-laws moving in or death. its all over by week ten (the tenth year of marriage). after serious discussion with lawyers about alimony (赡养费) and child support, the students get divorced (离婚) .adams course, which has “married” 1,000 students since its beginning six years ago, is widely supported by parents and students. some of the students have found the experience making them realize their real life marry plans are wrong. marianne baldrica, 16, who tried “marriage” last term with her boyfriend eric zook, 15, said, “ eric and i used to get along pretty well before we took the course together. but i wanted to live in the city, he wanted the country. he wanted lots of kids, i wanted no kids. its been four weeks since the course ended and eric and i are just starting to talk to each other again.”25. what is the aim of adams course?a. to tell students how to find a good partner.b. to teach students how to manage their money.c. to help students act as wives and husbands well. d. to show students the problems in real marriage life.26. what will happen in the eighth week?a. the couples will have a baby.b. the couples will have to find a flat.c. the husband will have to find a real job.d. the marriage will come to the breaking point.27. after taking the course, marianne will _ . a. choose to live in the country b. break up with her boyfriend at once c. ask their teachers and parents for help d. have a better understanding of marriage28. where does the text probably come from? a. a science book. b. a library guide. c. a newspaper report. d. a project handbook.c the spread of western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and for the environment. those findings come from a new report in the journal nature. david tilman is a professor at the university of minnesota. in the study, he examined information from 100 nations to show what people ate and how diet affected health. mr. tilman noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. he found that as nations industrialized(工业化), population increased and earnings rose. more people began to adopt what has been called the western diet. the western diet is high in sugar, fat, oil and meat. by eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker. “the food, let us say, in the 15 richest nations of the world, right now contains about 400 or 500 extra calories(热量) a day that are eaten beyond what people need, and that leads people to gain weight.” david tillman says overweight people are at greater risk for diseases like diabetes, heart disease and some cancers. diabetes is shooting to very high rates in the united states and across europe. heart disease is a major cause of death in the western nations. unfortunately when people become industrialized, if they adopt this western diet, they are going to have these same health problems. a diet bad for human beings, it seems, is also bad for the environment. as the worlds population grows, experts say more forests and areas will become farmland for crops or grasslands for raising cattle. these areas will be needed to meet the increasing demand for food. mr. tilman calls the link between diet, the environment and human health, “a dilemma”, a situation where it is very difficult to decide what to do. he says one possible solution is leaving the western diet behind.29. why did people get fatter in the 1960s?a. they ate foods high in calories.b. they adopted a western lifestyle.c. they set aside little time for exercise.d. they had a better life and became lazier.30. according to the text, overweight people may suffer the following diseases except_. a. diabetes b. skin disease c. cancers d. heart disease31. what can we infer from paragraph 5?a. there will be fewer and fewer forests.b. people wont care about the environment.c. the worlds population will grow faster than ever.d. raising cattle will be the most moneymaking business.32. what is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?a. to tell people effective ways to keep healthy.b. to call on people to give up the western diet.c. to show the problems industrialized nations are facing.d. to draw peoples attention to environmental protection.d do you like to eat out? do you like to eat quickly? do you like inexpensive food? some people go to fast-food restaurants for these reasons. in the past, people usually went to diners（小餐馆）for these reasons. in fact, many people in the states still go to diners today for the same reasons. a man named walter scott had the first “diner” in 1872. it wasnt a real diner. it was only a food cart. people on the street walked up to the cart to buy food. these carts served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and a late-night meal. the meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. in 1887, samuel jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside. however, they did not sit down. later, people built diners with counters and stools, and people sat down while they ate. before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. in other words, people were able to eat in diner at any time. diners changed in other ways, too. the original menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. it included soup, favorite dishes, and a breakfast menu. in addition, diners soon became permanent buildings. they were no longer carts on wheels.diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1900s. they are usually buildings with large windows. inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, booths, and tables and chairs. people can eat all three meals in a modern diner. today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as mcdonalds and burger king. however, the diner remains an american tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. it was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.33a man named walter scott had the first “diner” in 1872. why is the word “diner” in quotation marks(引号)？ a. because it is spelled differently from “ dinner” b. because the first diner was not what it is now c. because diner was a new word d. because it is a special kind of restaurant34according to paragraph 3, diners changed in _ a. two ways b. three ways c. four ways d. five ways35the main idea of the passage is that _. a. the diner is a traditional , popular place to eat in the united states b. samuel johns built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside c. american diners serve many types of food 24 hours a day to their customers d. diners are different from fast-food restaurants in many ways

article, in the last few years, new research has given us a far deeper understanding of the relationship between what we earn and how we feel. broadly speaking, people with higher incomes are happier than those who struggle to get by. but it also shows you need to spend wisely if you expect those bank notes to put a smile on your face. 36 1. buy experiences, not material goods. in a recently published study, professor ryan at san francisco state university in the us, found that when people dont have much money to spare, they tend to stick to material goods. 37 but they actually provide both more happiness and more lasting value. 2. 38 no matter how much money you spend on something and how special that product is, you will get used to having it over time and lose interest in it. with the same money you spend on one big object, you can buy many little things. buying small things means you can get frequent small pleasures.3. be sure to buy time. 39 for example, that big house in the suburbs may seem like a good idea, but a 2014 study by researchers from university of zurich in switzerland found that people with longer time on the way reported lower life satisfaction, all other things being equal.4. try giving it away. elizabeth dunn, professor at the university of british columbia in canada, found that in nations as diverse as canada, south africa and uganda, giving away money consistently made people happier. 40 来自加拿大的不列颠哥伦比亚大学的心理学副教授伊丽莎白邓恩则发现，不论在加拿大，还是在南非、乌干达等很多国家，时不时地向他人施舍钱财会让人感觉更幸福。而这也同样适用于并不富裕的人群，乐善好施也能为他们带来幸福感。 a. be sure to buy what you like.b. here are some ways to better spend your money.c. buy lots of little things, rather than one big thing.d. there are a lot of reasons someone might buy something.e. people think experiences only provide temporary happiness.f. this was even true when people giving away were relatively poor.g. consider how the things you buy will affect how you spend your time.第三部分 英语知识运用 (共两节，满分45分)第一节 完形填空
