One year, I had a student, John, who entered my class when he was a junior. John changed to our school from Greece, and seemed to be interested in athletics, so I encouraged him to join our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before, I did believe that he could do well in any event, and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him. He accepted the offer, and began to work hard at every practice.About a month later, I had found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player, winning various junior awards in his home country. I went to him asking, “John, I really appreciate that you came out for the track team, but why didnt you play tennis instead? It seems that would interest you a lot more, since youre so good at it.”John answered, “Well, I like tennis, but you told me that you believed in me, and that you thought I could do well in track, so I wanted to try it for that reason.”From then on, I often remember my students reply. I told it to a friend and she suggested I write it down to share somewhere with more teachers. No matter how critical (不满的) students can be of themselves, Ive found that a simple “I trust that you can do it!” can go a long way!24. According to Paragraph 1, the author seems to think more about Johns _.A. PE marks B. self-control C. interest in sports D. state of health25. Why did John take part in the track team?A. He had been an excellent runner. B. He was encouraged by his teacher.C. He liked running more than tennis. D. He had no tennis coach to train him.26.

The passage is mainly written for _.A. teachers B. parents C. students D. playersCTea, the most typical English drink，became established in Britain because of the influence of a foreign princess, Catherine of Braganza, the queen of Charles II. As a lover of tea since her childhood in Portugal, she brought tea-drinking to the English royal court and set a trend for the beverage in the 17th century. The fashion soon spread beyond the circle of the nobility (贵族) to the middle classes, and tea became a popular drink at the London coffee houses where people met to do business and discuss events of the day. Many employers served a cup of tea to their workers in the middle of the morning, thus inventing a lasting British institution, the “tea break”. However, drinking tea in social settings outside the workplace was unable to be accepted to the majority of British people. It came with a high price tag (标签) and tea was taxed as well.Around 1800, the seventh Duchess of Bedford, Anne Maria, began the popular practice of “afternoon tea”, a ceremony taking place at about four oclock. Until then, people did not usually eat or drink anything between lunch and dinner. At approximately the same time, the Earl of Sandwich popularized a new way of eating breadin thin slices, with something like jam or cucumbers between themBefore long, a small meal at the end of the afternoon, involving tea and sandwiches, had become part of the British way of life.As tea became much cheaper during the 19th century, its popularity spread right through all corners of the British society. Thus, tea became Britains favorite drink.28. What is mainly discussed about tea in the text?A. Its development in BritainB. Its traditional ways of drinking.C. Its influence around the world.D. Its popularity in Europe.29. What do the underlined words “the beverage” probably refer to?A. Tea. B. A small meal.C. A way of eating bread. D. A choice of drinks.30. Why was tea unable to be accepted as a common drink in Britain in the 17th century?A. It was only served in London.B. It was taxed as an alcoholic drink.C. It was forbidden in business settings.D. It was too expensive for most people.31. How is the text organized?A. By cause and effect. B. By comparison. C. In time order. D. In space order.DDoes your local town have a nickname (绰号)? If so, what does it say about the area and the people who live there? Many cities are recognized across the world by their unofficial titles. New York is the Big Apple, London is the Big Smoke, and Los Angles is famously called La La Land.Now Britains national mapping agency, Ordnance Survey, and the British linguistics charity, the English Project, are setting up a project to collect the nicknames people use for local places.“The name that people create for a place forms an emotional connection,” says Winchester Universitys Professor Bill Lucas, a supporter of the English Project. Basingstoke is a town in central England. The local nickname, Amazingstoke, shows peoples love to the area. Swindon, on the other hand, is sometimes called, Swindump, showing that some people think its a terrible place. Stanford Le Hope in Essex is called Stanford No Hope by locals. And Padstow in Cornwall is so closely associated with the local celebrity Rick Stein that its become known as Padstein.Since launching the online survey last week, the creators have already received 3,000 alternative titles for places and famous buildings.There is a practical side to the project. Glen Hart, Ordnance Surveys head of research, says the information could be very helpful to the emergency services. For example, “By having the most complete set of nicknames we could help the emergency services quickly locate the right place, and maybe even save lives.” he says.32. Whats the passage mainly about?A. Some stories about nicknames for places.B. Organizations collect official names.C. A survey of the nicknames for places.D. People show their love to their cities.33. Unlike the town Basingstoke, Swindon is a place that_.A. has a long history B. attracts a lot of touristsC. has few people living there D. seems unpleasant to some people34. According to the passage, peoples response to the project is_.A. active B. indifferentC. opposed D. strange35. What does Clean Hart think of the project?A. It proves that most nicknames are interesting.B. It may help increase the number of the nicknames.C. It is very helpful to the emergency services.D. It has helped prevent deaths from happening.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。Courtesy in EnglishCourtesy (礼貌) is an art form that shows our moral character. Chinas history is one of a civilization (文明) with a highly developed sense of etiquette (礼仪) ; therefore, we should speak English as politely as possible when we go abroad.Ordering meals36 Beginning your request with “May I.?” “Could I.?” is considered polite. For example, “May I have a latte?” It is also politer to say, “Ill have.” or “Id like.” instead of “I want.” because it will be considered as less direct.Asking for helpIf we need to ask someone for help, we should say, “Excuse me, or Do you mind if I ask you something?” 37 Instead, for example, we should say, “Could you tell me where the rest rooms are?”38Local people in other countries sometimes speak really fast, so it can be hard for us to catch all the words. In such a situation, we can say, “Pardon me?” to ask them to repeat what they said. In my opinion, saying “Can you please repeat that? I didnt follow.” is the politest way.Refusing an invitation39_ If we really cant make it, we can first say, “Id like to .” and then say, “but I have to work late”, for example. Or “Im afraid I cant.”, or even, “That sounds great, but .”Expressing disagreementWe can use sentences like “I see what youre saying, but I think.”,or “You could be right, but dont forget that.” or even, “Yes, thats true, but Im not sure that.” 40A. Cant catch whats been said?B. We should not ask our questions directly.C. Being polite when you order something is very important.D. Do you know some basic rules of answering the telephone?E. It is also important to know how to refuse someones invitation.F. “Please” and “thank you” go a long way when we speak to each other.G. These are great ways to express disagreement politely by being less direct.第三部分 语言知识运用（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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。One day, a well-known speaker was invited to give a lecture to an audience of 200.
