Having experienced a shocking electrical accident, which caused him to become both blind and deaf, James Franco’s world became completely dark and quiet for almost ten years. The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life. His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.
One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning. Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up 20 minutes later, lying face down in muddy water. He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw: a tree and a muddy road. When Mrs. Franco came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.
The news of James regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread and many doctors came to examine him. Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning. However, none of them could give a compellent answer as to why this should happen. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since James lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock.
1. The reason why James attempted to kill himself was that _________.
A. a terrible electrical accident happened to him
B. he had to live in a dark and silent world
C. he was struck by the lightning once more
D. nobody in the world cared about him

C. Taking a walk with a stick D. Lying on the ground
3. What does the underlined word “compellent” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. wrong B. convincing C. unexplained D. true
4. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. A Terrible Electrical Accident B. James Franco and His Wife
C. An Unforgettable Experience D. What a Sudden Shock
The largest land animal remaining on the earth, the African elephant, is of much importance to African ecosystem. Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment. As a giant plant-eater, it significantly shapes the forest-and-savanna (大草原) surroundings in which it lives, therefore deciding the conditions of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat.
It is the elephant’s great desire for food that makes it both a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, as well as pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in not only deep tropical forests but also the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas. In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth, which attract a variety of other plant-eaters.
Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants create open spaces, allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor. In such situations, the forests become suitable for large-hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small-sized plant-eaters to obtain their food as well.
Scientists are worried now that the African elephant has become an endangered species. If the elephant dies out, scientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.
5. It can be inferred from the passage that the African elephant .
A. is now the largest animal on the earth
B. determines life and death of millions of other animals in its habitat
C. has far-reaching impact on its habitat as a giant animal-eater
D. makes great contributions to its environment like other animals
6. The African elephant influences the ecosystem in the following ways except that .
A. it creates open areas in deep tropical forests as well as woodlands
13. Which one is wrong about the security marking of a bicycle?
A. It can ensure that the thieves won"t steal the bike.
B. Some companies can assist you in doing this.
C. It can help the police to find and identify the lost bike.
D. A security marking database makes it easy to get in touch with the owner.
14. The article advises you to keep a record of your bicycle _______.
A. both in the bike shop and your computer
B. either in a security company or your university
C. by yourself and in a security company as well
D. in the police station as well as a marketing company
15. Which of the following information may not be necessarily recorded?
A. your postcode and personal details
B. both the type of the bike and its picture
C. the signing number of the bike as well as your address
D. your personal information and recommendation in your computer database
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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Change is scary. 16 It can go hand in hand with the fear that we might hurt someone else if we think about ourselves. The truth is that you’re so much more courageous than you give yourself credit for and far stronger than you realize. Here are some ways that you can use to help yourself make the process of creating change more manageable.
Make change into small bite size pieces. 17 Remember that as long as you attempt to take regular practice towards your goal, such as eating more healthily every day, or walking twenty minutes a day, you’re heading in the right direction to make changes.
Form a habit of keeping a diary every day. Writing a journal every night before going to bed can effectively help you cope with the emotional impact of the change process. Go to grab a pen or pencil and remember a journal is not for being neat and tidy with good spelling. 18 .
Rest is essential to success. Have a rest and take timeout to build your energy. 19 If we don’t give ourselves time to rest, we just end up burning out by the constant striving and worry. As we don’t have the energy to keep going, we have to give up!
20 Just accept it! I’m sorry to say that unless some people are really secure in themselves and truly happy in their own life, they’re never going to like your changes. This has nothing to do with whether they love you or not. They are just for self-preservation! Therefore, give them a little time to adjust and get used to it.
A. No one else is going to like your changes.
B. Don’t try to eat the elephant in one sitting.
C. It is a step into the unknown.
D. Keep repeating your small steps over and over again.
E. It’s not being lazy to have time out.
F. It’s a private place where you can speak out your inner thoughts.
G. Creating change is about building your character.

Dear Mr. President，
Our class has been studying a unit on first aid. It has been very useful because we have learnt about what to do to help someone who has had an accident.
Even though the unit is very interesting and useful, we would like to be able to do a first aid course. Because it would give information about many more situations. It would also give us the chance to practice first aid treatments.
We request that the school organizes a first aid course. We think such a course at the school is a necessary part of our education and will make us more useful members of our society. Perhaps we will even save someone’s life one day.
Best regards!

Tea production in Sri Lanka has thrived for decades. The tea gardens in Hatton, Sri Lanka are actually large tea estates. The best tea usually comes from plants grown on high grounds, the cool hilltops with rows and rows of tea plants. The plants are about one meter apart. The plant is often pruned so that it remains only 60 to 90 centimeters high. Pruning is important because it encourages the growth of tender shoots, or young leaves. It is from these shoots that the best tea is got.
Practically all the tea pickers are women. The estates prefer to employ women pickers because they are more careful. Their thin fingers can easily remove the twin leaves and new shoots from the plant, which are the parts used for processing tea. The pickers carry large baskets into which they throw their pickings. A skilled worker can harvest between 9 to 14 kilograms of tea leaves a day. Usually new shoots can be picked from the plants about every ten or fifteen days.
Processing tea shoots into our familiar dry tea leaves requires great care and skill. There are various methods of processing depending on the type of tea required. For black tea, the young green leaves are first spread out shelves to dry. This process removes much of its water and the leaves become soft. After this, the leaves are passed through heavy rollers. This operation will press the leaves for juices which give the tea both its color and taste. Then the leaves are spread out on floors and left to ferment（发酵）under wet conditions. Fermentation develops the rich taste of black tea. The fermented leaves are then dried with a hot-air blower until they become rolled-up black leaves. The final step is to sort and grade them before the black tea is ready for sale to countries all over the world.
9. The underlined word “pruning” means “ ”.
A. reasonable use of chemicals B. frequent watering
C. regular cutting of the plants D. loosening the soil
10. How many processing steps are mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. Three B. Four C. Five D. Six
11. What does the author imply in the passage?
A. Fermentation is a must to enrich the flavour of black tea.
B. Tea production has long been prosperous in Sri Lanka.
C. Women pickers are welcomed because they can easily find the twin leaves.
D. Tea pickings can be done biweekly.

Locks

Registration

Attention

Change is scary. 16 It can go hand in hand with the fear that we might hurt someone else if we think about ourselves. The truth is that you’re so much more courageous than you give yourself credit for and far stronger than you realize. Here are some ways that you can use to help yourself make the process of creating change more manageable.
Make change into small bite size pieces. 17 Remember that as long as you attempt to take regular practice towards your goal, such as eating more healthily every day, or walking twenty minutes a day, you’re heading in the right direction to make changes.
Form a habit of keeping a diary every day. Writing a journal every night before going to bed can effectively help you cope with the emotional impact of the change process. Go to grab a pen or pencil and remember a journal is not for being neat and tidy with good spelling. 18 .
Rest is essential to success. Have a rest and take timeout to build your energy. 19 If we don’t give ourselves time to rest, we just end up burning out by the constant striving and worry. As we don’t have the energy to keep going, we have to give up!
20 Just accept it! I’m sorry to say that unless some people are really secure in themselves and truly happy in their own life, they’re never going to like your changes. This has nothing to do with whether they love you or not. They are just for self-preservation! Therefore, give them a little time to adjust and get used to it.
A. No one else is going to like your changes.
B. Don’t try to eat the elephant in one sitting.
C. It is a step into the unknown.
D. Keep repeating your small steps over and over again.
E. It’s not being lazy to have time out.
F. It’s a private place where you can speak out your inner thoughts.
G. Creating change is about building your character.

第二节 书面表达（满分25分）
Dear Mr. President，
Our class has been studying a unit on first aid. It has been very useful because we have learnt about what to do to help someone who has had an accident.
Even though the unit is very interesting and useful, we would like to be able to do a first aid course. Because it would give information about many more situations. It would also give us the chance to practice first aid treatments.
We request that the school organizes a first aid course. We think such a course at the school is a necessary part of our education and will make us more useful members of our society. Perhaps we will even save someone’s life one day.
Best regards!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
