I was pleasantly surprised that each performance was 25 with cheers and praise.Then it was Jesss 26 . She stepped onto the stage. The music started and, to my shock, she 27 the first line of the song. She became 28 , sang in the 29 key and forgot her lyrics. As she struggled through the song, kids whispered and giggled (咯咯地笑).

Exciting cities, historic places and stunning countryside, all these attract and delight visitors from around the world. Below are some of the most visited places in the UK.StonehengeStonehenge is a prehistoric stone circle and is believed to have been constructed around 3100 BC. No one knows exactly what purpose Stonehenge served. Was it a temple for worship, a burial site or perhaps a huge calendar? How did our ancestors manage to carry the mighty stones from so far away and then, using only the most primitive tools, build this amazing structure? Surrounded by mystery, Stonehenge never fails to impress.Tower BridgeTower Bridge is one of Londons most recognizable landmarks (地标) and also one of the most famous bridges in the world. Spanning (跨越) the Thames, just next to the Tower of London, Tower Bridge was built in 1894 after 50 architects and designers entered a competition to design a new bridge for London. Visitors can view London from the high-level walkways. You can also check the bridge lift schedule which shows times and dates when the bridge will rise for large vessels.Chatsworth HouseThe UK is dotted with a huge number of special country houses and castles, but one of the most beautiful is Chatsworth House in Derbyshire, home of the Duke & Duchess of Devonshire since 1549. As well as housing one of Europes finest private art collections, the stately home (豪华古宅) also has a magical 101-acre garden, a farmyard and an adventure playground (儿童游乐园). The 2005 movie version of Pride and Prejudice was filmed at Chatsworth. It is believed that Jane Austen based Pemberley on this stunning estate.36. Which of the following is NOT true about Stonehenge?A. It is a prehistoric stone circle.B. It is believed to have been constructed around 3100 BC.C. What purpose it served is still not clear.D. It has lost its attraction gradually.37. It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that . A. Tower of London is connected by Tower BridgeB. Tower Bridge has fixed times for large ships to crossC. visitors dont have access to Tower Bridge nowD. Tower Bridge was built several years ago38. What do we know about Chatsworth House?A. Some nobles once lived there.B. It exhibits the finest art collections in the world.C. The film Pride and Prejudice was first shown there.D. Jane Austen had lived there for many years.BEveryone was nice and helpful and I felt at home right away, which made my host family feel amazing. We got along so well even without speaking the same language. My host mother made a great effort to learn some English and I did my best to learn a couple of Thai words. For me, a twenty-year-old girl, teaching in Thailand was great fun but also challenging, because I was teaching many different classes and the students were of different levels of English. So I always had to first check and then adapt my teaching to their English level. But luckily all the previous teachers kept a teachers diary and wrote down their experiences with the students, so I could check in advance what kind of games or exercises they had done before. The emphasis of my teaching was on conversation and this was best done through little games. The students loved teaming up against each other. But sometimes it took some time to get them involved because they were often very shy. But once they warmed up, they were so enthusiastic about the game. I must say I enjoyed my work there and never had a boring moment.On Sundays I went to a temple school to teach little children (5-8 years) together with other volunteer teachers from Prangku. All the volunteer teachers from Prangku were very committed and devoted much of their free time to their students. And the students there were so nice and polite, and they were really eager to learn English. Volunteering overseas is a wonderful way to get to know a country, its culture and people in a more meaningful way. I hope to give my experiences to everyone who enjoys foreign culture and loves helping others. So join us if you are such a person.39. Why did the host family feel surprised at the author? A. Because the author spoke a different language. B. Because the author could adapt to the new life quickly. C. Because the author felt the host family was very friendly. D. Because the author understood a couple of Thai words.40. Why did the author regard teaching in Thailand challenging?A. Because the living conditions there were really terrible.B. Because there were no suitable games for her students.C. Because she didnt get along well with the local teachers.D. Because her students were of different English levels.41. Which of the following is NOT true about the students in Thailand? A. They were active in class in fact.B. They were nice and polite to teachers. C. They were too shy to take part in class activities. D. They were willing to learn English.42. The purpose of the text is to . A. tell us how the author adapted to the life in Thailand quickly B. inspire people to do voluntary work in foreign countries C. encourage people to experience foreign cultures D. invite people to travel to ThailandCWhile elephants are respected by the people of Thailand, they are also used as beasts of burdens (驮兽). Today, these majestic animals are extensively used to help carry wood for the logging industry. It is therefore nice to hear that on National Elephant Day the mighty mammals are treated like a king, and served with meals fit for a king.One of the biggest celebrations took place at the Pattaya Resort in Thailands Chonburi Province. Fifty-two elephants, some wearing beautiful clothes, arrived bright and early (大清早) for the big day. Each was first blessed with holy water by a professional elephant rider and then led to the grand feast, which served an unlimited supply of their favorite treatsbananas, dragon fruits (火龙果), pineapples, assorted melons, apples and the list went on and on! The elephants ate till they were satisfied before walking back with their owners for a good nights rest.Though called National Elephant Day, the celebrations that took place on March 13th this year stretched out for an entire week. Besides providing a well-deserved treat and break for the hard-working animals, the celebrations were also aimed to raise awareness about the mammals dwindling (减少的) population. One smart elephant even helped show the message by painting a dead elephant and the words “Dont kill me”, right beside it.And horrible as the message may sound, there is a sad ring of truth to it. Since the 1900s the number of elephants in Thailand has gone from over 100,000 to just 3,000-4,000 because of the destruction of their natural habitat and illegal killing. Asian elephants are not the only ones that are in trouble. African elephants are facing the same fate (命运). Hopefully, the public and officials are now working together to save these mighty animals from disappearing from the world.43. Nowadays elephants in Thailand are .A. still used to help fight battlesB. never used as beasts of burdensC. used to do tasks that need strengthD. less respected because of the development of the society44. The celebrations held at the Pattaya Resort aimed to .A. show visitors the elephants great performance B. honor elephants for their devotion to the countryC. encourage people to play with elephantsD. show visitors the beautiful scenery in Thailand45.

Elephants are protected very well in Thailand.B. Elephants also face the risk of being killed in Thailand.C. The number of elephants is increasing gradually in Thailand.D. Elephants could enjoy a grand feast every week in Thailand.DWe have smart phones, smart cars and even smart glasses. But a smart trash can? At least thats what Minoru Kurata, an engineer from a Japanese auto company is hoping to bring us now.But dont get your hopes up too high, the device is not smart enough to clean up your room after you leave for school. What it can do, however, is to make you seem like a basketball superstar. Thats because every time a piece of trash is thrown anywhere close by, the trash can moves in that direction and ensures that the trash lands inside.To achieve this magical goal, a motion-sensing Kinect camera placed around the area first detects the position of the trash. It then sends this information to a computer, which rapidly calculates the location and transmits it to the can through a wireless (无线的) connection.This activates (激活) the trash can, which is equipped with a motor controller and wheels all fitted on the underside. In order to ensure that the can does not topple over (倾倒) as it tries to catch the badly aimed trash, the trash can has the lowest center of gravity, which means it is narrow, compact (紧凑的) and sits low on the ground.While getting such a trash can may not be a priority (优先) on your list, Minoru, who was awarded an Excellence Award at the Japan Media Arts Festival held in Tokyo on February 13, says he has received many inquiries about licensing his product for commercial use.However, the young engineer is holding out for two reasons: He first needs to secure a patent (专利) for this technology， and more importantly, get the cans success rate of detecting the falling article a little higher than the current 10-20%!47. How does the smart trash can work?A. It helps you clean up your room automatically. B. It picks up the trash if you send an order to it.C. It moves in the direction that you throw the trash.D. It produces a sound when you fail to throw the trash into it.48. The smart trash can is stable when it is working because .A. it is controlled by a computerB. its wheels are all fitted on the undersideC. it is high, strong and tied to a fixed objectD. it is designed with the lowest center of gravity49. Minorus attitude towards his smart trash can is .A. sad B. confident C. doubtful D. disappointed50. We can infer from the last paragraph that .A. the newly invented smart trash can will be improved laterB. Minoru pays little attention to the patent of his new inventionC. the newly invented smart trash can will not be put into commercial use D. Minoru believes his smart trash can is perfect and needs no improvement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。 Four rules of friendshipWhatever we do in our lives, we must follow some rules.
