Actually, its cultural richness is best represented by the annual week-long festivalduringthelastweekofApril-AprilFeria(守护神节),ortheAprilFair.The site of the April Fair is a square with streets named after famous bullfighters and cultural figures. This is fit for the festival that started in the 19th century in responseto the rise of foreign culture in Spain. Indeed, the routine of the April Fair sometimes must be fixed. People sleep for only a few hours a day, take turns to work and then dance and eat for the rest of the day. They stop only for a mid-day horse-ride or to watch an evening bullfight. Even then, idustrial production in Seville(塞维利亚), Spains third largest city, is seriously interrupted by the celebrations. But perhaps this is a small price to pay for having an annual reunition with friends and relatives as well as the chance to celebrate Spains traditional culture.

In making such models painstaking and artistry are called for as well as thorough knowledge of plant structure. The collection of glass flowers in the Botanical Museum of Harvard University is the most famous in North America and is widely known throughout the scientific world. In all, there are several thousand models in colored glass, the work of two artist-naturalists Leopold Blaschka and his son Rudolph.The intention was to have the collection represent at least one member of each flower family native to the United States. Althoughitwas never completed. It contains more than seven hundred species representing 164 families of flowering plants, a group of fruits showing the effect of fungus(真菌) diseases and thousands of flower parts and magnified(放大的) details. Every detail of these is accurately reproduced in color and structure. The models are kept in locked cases as they are too valuable and fragile for classroom use28.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. An Extensive Collection of Glass FlowersB. The Lives of Leopold and RudolphC. Flowers Native to the United StatesD. Material Used for Artificial Flowers29.It can be inferred from the passage that the goal of Leopold and Rudolph was to _A. create a botanical garden where only exotic(异国的) flowers grewB. do a thorough study of plant structureC. make a copy of one member of each United States flower familyD. show that glass are more realistic than wax flowers30. The underlined word“it”refers to _A. the intention B. the collection C. one member D. each flower family31. Which of the following is NOT included in the display at the Botanical Museum of Harvard University?A. Models of 164 families of flowering plantsB. Magnified details of flower partsC. Several species of native birdsD. A group of diseased fruitsD“Its a big hammer to crack a nut.” This is how one angry parent described the recent crackdown(严厉)by London police on parents who drop their kids off at school by car. Yes, you read that correctlythe very mode of transportation that many American schools insistthe only safe way to deliver kids to school is now being criminalized in the United Kingdom.The decision to fine any vehicles seen dropping off or picking up kids with in a particular zone of east London comes from city councillors(议员) long-term efforts to make the area safer and less crowded. They say theyve been trying for years “to encourage sensible driving and parking”, but in vain. Neighborhood residents complain frequently about their driveways being blocked by illegally parked cars for 15 minutes or more，often while theyre trying to get to work, and the streets are long overcrowded.Now the rules have changed. Some parents are angry. Angie Baillieul is a mother who made the “big hammer” comment and says the crackdown is “way over the top.” The nearest drop-off point for her six- year-old is now a five-minute walk from the school. Others are happy with the decision, severe though it may seem. Councillor Jason Frost said ：“Traffic has significantly reduced，and more children are now walking to school, which is a great outcome. I would rather have complaints that we are slightly inconveniencing parents than hear that a child had been seriously injured because nothing was done.”I witness daily the chaos(混乱) created by these in-town drivers，when I walk my own kids to school. Theres a parking lot overflowing with vehicles and a slow-moving train of cars moving in circles，many filling the air with harmful smokes. Meanwhile, the conversations around child over-weight and the importance of daily physical activity continue to stand out in schools.”32. Why is Angie Baillieul opposed to the new rule?A.She is often fined by London police. B.She will lose her job as a school driver.C.She has adapted to the American practice. D.She thinks it adds inconvenience to her son.33. Why has the new rule been made according to Jason Frost?A.On account of massive complaints. B.Because of students health problem.C.Owing to safety concern. D.Due to air pollution.34. What can be seen after the crackdown is carried out?A.Less daily chaos. B.Favor from all people.C.More over-weight children. D.Complaints from neighbors.35. What can we infer from the passage?A.Parents attempt to resist a school rule.B.London police cause widespread anger.C.American schools care about kids7 safety.D.Different voices are heard on a new traffic policy.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How to Say No RespectfullyLike most people, your natural instinct(本能) is probably to help others when you can. 36. Whether youre refusing an invitation to a party or turning down a new project at work, you can say no while still being respectful. Whatever the situation is, be clear, polite and firm when saying no.Express your thanks. 37 If you have to turn someone down, express your thanks that they thought of you in the first place. You could say something like, “Thanks for considering me responsible enough to watch your kids. Im sorry that Im busy that evening.”Think before you speak. If you say no immediately, it might seem like you didnt even consider the request. In order to be respectful, take a moment to think about your answereven if you already know what it is going to be. 38 Give a clear answer. Saying no respectfully shows that youre honest and direct. 39 If you cant help, say no. If someone is asking you on a date and you dont want to go, make that clear. 40 You can say no without completely turning down the request. By setting boundaries, you can make it clear exactly what you can do and what you are willing to do. For example, you could say, “Im not free for dinner, but I would be coming for a quick drink after work.”AFind a way to compromise(妥协).BTake a pause, and then kindly say no.CBut sometimes, you just need to say no.DIts strange to feel guilty for turning someone down.EMake it clear that you sincerely appreciate being asked.FIf you feel it necessary, you can also provide a reason for your answer.GDo not give people false hope that you will be able to satisfy their request.第三部分 英语知识运用（百强校英语解析团队专供）（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AGameofLightandShadeIt was a sunny day.

There I was 42 to see the attendant (工作人员) selling him a ticket as if he were any other visitor. Then, with the ticket in one hand and 43 the wall with the fingers of the other, the blind man reached the stairs 44 to the hallway. That man is blind. What would a blind man climb up the tower for?
