Former students and teachers come back to the school to enjoy the memories of their time there and the many Homecoming activities. Homecoming might last for only one day or for several days, even one week. High schools usually choose one boy and one girl from the senior class to be the “Homecoming King” and “Homecoming Queen”. The students usually choose a boy and a girl who have done a lot for the school.Most schools have a Homecoming parade(游行). The school band will often lead the way, followed by many different cars and trucks. Most schools also have a football game for Homecomingand, of course, tailgate parties. A tailgate party is a group of people drinking and eating around the back, or tailgate, of someones pick-up truck. There are many other activities that might be a part of the Homecoming celebration. There might be a school-wide picnic one day; another day, there may be plays, concerts, competitions or games, all depending on a schools traditions.Homecoming celebrations nearly always end with a dance and/or a great dinner. The school is decorated beautifully, and a band is paid to come and play. Students dress up: guys in suits and girls in beautiful dresses. 56. Homecoming in the USA _. A. is held only in high schools B. is held to celebrate the birth of schools C. might be prepared for students only D. might last from one day to one week57. All the activities might be found at the Homecoming except _. A. a paradeB. a football gameC. a picnic D. an exam58. The “tailgate” is most probably _ a truck or a car. A. in front of B. in the middle of C. at the back of D. on the top of59. Homecoming celebrations usually end with _.A. a play or concertB. a dance or a dinner C. a picnic or a danceD. a competition or a game B A lot of teachers hate doodlers(乱写乱画的人)during classes.“Pay attention!” Teachers will often warn doodling students, sure that they must be daydreaming However, according to a recent study, doodling while listening to a boring lecture helps concentrate the attention。 Andrade, a psychology professor in England asked participants(参与者) to listen to a boring lecture. Half the participants were told to color in squares and circles freely on a piece of paper while listening to the lecture. The other half werent given a task. After it was over, the participants were asked to retell the lecture Those given the doodling task (color in squares and circles) remembered 29 percent more information than the non-doodlersAndrade said “If someone is doing a boring task，like listening to a dull conversation，they may start daydream，”said Professor Andrade “Daydreaming distracts (使分心) them from the task，resulting in poorer performanceA simple task，like doodling，can stop them from daydreaming without affecting their performance at the task.”he said So the next time youre doodling during a class, and you hear “pay attention”，you can tell the teacher with confidence that youve been paying attention to every word 60The passage mainly tells us Adoodling will be banned in classes B. teachers are against doodling Cdoodling may help concentrate D. doodling call lead to daydream61Teachers hate doodlers because they thought Adoodlers are not good at study Bdoodlers are doing no task Cdoodlers pay no attention in class Ddoodlers are not polite to them62Professor Andrade thinks Athose given the doodling task can remember less information Bif you have daydream during classes youll have a good memory Cdaydreaming is better than doodling Ddoodling can stop us from daydreaming63We can learn from the text that Adoodling is the best way to draw attention Bdaydreaming is different from doodling Cdoodling will be helpful in any occasion Devery student should doodle in classC. How Americans Began to Eat TomatoesPeople have strange ideas about food. For example, the tomato is a kind of very delicious vegetable. It is one of useful plants that can be prepared in many ways. It has rich nutrition（营养） and vitamin in it. But in the 18th century, Americans never ate tomatoes. They grew them in their gardens because tomato plants are so pretty. But they thought the vegetable was poisonous (有毒的). They called tomatoes “poison apples.”President Thomas Jefferson, however, knew that tomatoes were good to eat. He was a learned man. He had been to Paris, where he learned to love the taste of tomatoes. He grew many kinds of tomatoes in his garden. The President taught his cook a way for a cream of tomato soup. This beautiful pink soup was served at the Presidents party. The guests thought the soup tasted really good. They never thought their president would serve his honored guests poison apples. Jefferson never spoke to his honored guests about the fact.64. After you read the passage, which of the following do you think is True? A. Americans never ate tomatoes after they began to plant them.

His father was a teacher and taught chemistry in a middle school and his mother worked in a shop. They lived a happy life until his parents died one night when suddenly an earthquake broke out. All that happened on his sixth birthday. Luckily his sister who was two years senior to him took him to see their aunt in the city and they did not stay at home. Everything was destroyed in the earthquake and the two children got into trouble. Thanks to their aunt who was not rich enough, they grew up but they lived a hard life. His sister was so sad that she became a nun(修女). After he finished middle school, he was introduced to an owner of a hotel and began to work there.One day the young man fell to the ground while he was cleaning a window on the second floor. He was sent to the hospital and the doctor looked him over. One of his legs was broken and he had to be in hospital. He said to the nurse, “Im a poor man, madam. Arrange a third-class ward(病房) for me, please.”“Cant anybody help you?”“No, madam,” answered Dick. “I have only a sister. Shes a nun and shes poor, too.”“I dont think so,” the nurse said angrily. “Nuns usually marry God. And God is the richest in the world, you know!”“Well, then, ” Dick said with a smile. “Please arrange a first-class ward for me and post the bill to my brother-in-law.”68.

From the story, we know that the boy is very . A. silly B. kind C. humorous D. luckyE The food we eat seems to have a great effect on our health. Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of human illness is related to food and forty percent of cancer is related to food as well. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, some researchers realized that things commonly used to keep colour in meats and other food additives（添加剂）caused cancer.Yet, these additives remain in our food, and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings（包装）of foods are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to their animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of cows. Sometimes similar things are supplied to animals not for their health, but just to make a profit(利润).The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on the market. Although some countries have tried to control such things, the practice continues.72. According to this passage, we can know . A. perhaps most of human illness is caused by what we eat B. perhaps most kinds of cancer are related to what people eat C. cancer was discovered in 1945 D. science has made food unfit to eat73. Things that are used to keep colours in meats are . A. harmful B. useless C. helpless D. dangerous74. All the additives . A. are bright and colourless B. are not bright and colourful C. have indirect effects on our health D. have direct effects on our health75. Which of the following is not true? A. Some wrappings of food are harmful. B. Farmers try to make more money on the market by fattening their animals. C. “The practice continues” means “things are still going on like that”. D. We neednt take care of what we eat.第二卷（满分35分） 第四部分：书面表达（共两节）第1节 任务型读写 共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。Life is never smooth. Its full of ups and downs, some hard tim
