2 . Occasionally, my father came back drunk. Late at night, he beat on the door, pleading to my mother to open it .He was on his way home from drinking, gambling, or some combination thereof, misspending money that we could have used and wasting time that we desperately needed.
It was the late-1970s. My parents were separated. My mother was now raising a group of boys on her own. My father spouted off about what he planned to do for us, buy for us.In fact, he had no intention of doing anything. As a father who was supposed to love us, in fact, he lacked the understanding of what it truly meant to love a child—or to hurt one. To him, this was a harmless game that kept us excited and begging. In fact, it was a cruel, corrosive lie. I lost faith in his words and in him. I wanted to stop caring, but I couldn’t.
Maybe it was his own complicated relationship to his father and his father’s family that caused him cold. Maybe it was the pain and guilt associated with a life of misfortune. Who knows. Whatever it was, it stole him from us, and particularly from me.
While my brothers talked about breaking and fixing things, I spent many of my evenings reading and wondering. My favorite books were a set of encyclopedias(百科全书) given by my uncle. They allowed me to explore the world beyond my world, to travel without leaving, to dream dreams greater than my life would otherwise have supported. But losing myself in my own mind also meant that I was completely lost to my father. Not understanding me, he simply ignored me—not just emotionally, but physically as well. Never once did he hug me, never once a pat on the back or a hand on the shoulder or a tousling of the hair.
My best memories of him were from his episodic attempts at engagement with us. During the longest of these episodes(插曲), once every month or two, he would come pick us up and drive us down the interstate to Trucker’s Paradise, a seedy, smoke-filled, truck stop with gas pumps, a convenience store, a small dining area and a game room through a door in the back. My dad gave each of us a handful of quarters, and we played until they were gone. He sat up front in the dining area, drinking coffee and being particular about the restaurant’s measly offerings.
I loved these days. To me, Trucker’s Paradise was paradise. The quarters and the games were fun but easily forgotten. It was the presence of my father that was most treasured. But, of course, these trips were short-lived.
It wasn’t until I was much older that I would find something that I would be able to____ as evidence of my father’s love.
When the Commodore 64 personal computer debuted, I convinced myself that I had to have it even though its price was out of my mother’s range. So I decided to earn the money myself. I mowed every yard I could find that summer for a few dollars each, yet it still wasn’t enough. So my dad agreed to help me raise the rest of the money by driving me to one of the watermelon farms south of town, loading up his truck with wholesale melons and driving me around to sell them. He came for me before daybreak. We made small talk, but it didn’t matter. The fact that he was talking to me was all that mattered. I was a teenager by then, but this was the first time that I had ever spent time alone with him. He laughed and repeatedly introduced me as “my boy,” a phrase he relayed with a sense of pride. It was one of the best days of my life.
Although he had never told me that he loved me, I would ____ that day as the greatest evidence of that fact. He had never intended me any wrong. He just didn’t know how to love me right. He wasn’t a mean man. So I took these random episodes and ____ them like a thing most precious, storing them in my mind for the long stretches of coldness when a warm memory would prove most useful.
It just goes to show that no matter how friendless the father, no matter how deep the damage, no matter how shattered the bond, there is still time, still space, still a need for even the smallest bit of evidence of a father’s love.
“My boy.”
1. From the passage, the father was_____ in the writer’s memory.
A.selfish and cruelB.proud and cold

D.he had a prejudice(偏见) and was too stubborn to feel it
3. The underlined phrase “cling to” can be replaced by __________.
A.catch hold ofB.depend on

4. From the last parts (para7-11), we can infer that ______ .
A.father liked to show off his family before others
B.I couldn't understand Father’s love unless he expressed to me
C.father intended to show a loving father he was but failed.
D.I would definitely treasure all the small love from father

A.23541B.23514C.32541D.32514
6. What’s the best title of the passage?
A.Remembrances of my fatherB.Father and son

文章大意:本文为一篇说明文。主要介绍了三个获得过诺贝尔奖的科学家,他们是用自己的身体进行试验的。
3 . Unlike chemists and physicists, who usually do their experiments using machines, biologists and medical researchers have to use living things like rats. But there are three Nobel prize-winning scientists who actually chose to experiment on themselves – all in the name of science, reported The Telegraph.
1. Werner Forssmann (Nobel prize winner in 1956)

Forssmann was a German scientist. He studied how to put a pipe inside the heart to measure the pressure inside and decide whether a patient needs surgery.

Experiments had been done on horses before, so he wanted to try with human patients. But it was not permitted because the experiment was considered too dangerous.

Not giving up, Forssmann decided to experiment on himself. He anaesthetized (麻醉) his own arm and made a cut, putting the pipe 30 centimeters into his vein. He then climbed two floors to the X-ray room before pushing the pipe all the way into his heart.


2. Barry Marshall (Nobel prize winner in 2005)

Most doctors in the mid-20th century believed that gastritis was down to stress, spicy food or an unusually large amount of stomach acid. But in 1979 an Australian scientist named Robin Warren found that the disease might be related to a bacteria called Helicobacter pylori.

So he teamed up with his colleague, Barry Marshall, to continue the study. When their request to experiment on patients was denied, Marshall bravely drank some of the bacteria. Five days later, he lost his appetite and soon was vomiting each morning – he indeed had gastritis.


3. Ralph Steinman (Nobel prize winner in 2011)

This Canadian scientist discovered a new type of immune system cell called the dendritic cell. He believed that it had the ability to fight against cancer.

Steinman knew he couldn’t yet use his method to treat patients. So in 2007, when doctors told him that he had cancer and that it was unlikely for him to live longer than a year, he saw an opportunity.

With the help of his colleagues, he gave himself three different vaccines based on his research and a total of eight experimental therapies(疗法). Even though Steinman eventually died from his cancer, he lived four and a half years, much longer than doctors had said he would.

1. The main purpose of the passage is to ________.
A.present some dangerous experiments that Nobel prize winners did on themselves.
B.list difficulties that scientists went through in order to make important discoveries.
C.explain why some scientists chose to experiment on themselves.
D.introduce a few Nobel prize winners who did experiments on themselves.
2. Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?
A.Forssmann’s experiment ended in failure.
B.Forssmann had the pipe pushed all the way into his heart.
C.Barry Marshall succeeded by drinking some Helicobacter pylori.
D.Barry Marshall’s experiment on himself confirmed that most doctors’ belief about gastritis was correct.
3. The underlined word “gastritis” in Paragraph 5 probably means ______.
A.a kind of bacteriaB.a kind of stomach disease
C.a new type of therapyD.a large amount of stomach acid
4. From the text, we can conclude that Ralph Steinman ______.
A.discovered a new type of cancer cell called the dendritic cell
B.tried different therapies containing the dendritic cell on himself
C.had his request to experiment on patients denied
D.believed that he was better than doctors at treating cancer
5. Where can we read such a passage?
A.In a newspaper.B.In a poster.
C.In a textbook.D.In a science book.

文章大意:本文一篇夹叙夹议文。文章作者通过父亲患脑瘤,在生命的最后时期告诉我:I love you。这个告诉我们要对我们所爱的人勇敢表达自己的爱,不要等到以后来不及。

4 . One Sunday, my family had gathered at my parents’ house to feast upon Mom’s wonderful cooking. During the normal dinner chatter, I noticed that my father was slurring (说话含混) his words. No one mentioned this during dinner, but I felt compelled to discuss it with my mother afterward.

We decided that there was something seriously wrong and that Dad needed to see the doctor.

Mom phoned me two days later. The doctor found a brain tumor (肿瘤). It’s too large at this point to operate. Maybe they can do something then, but the odds are long.

Even with the treatment, my father’s condition worsened, and the doctor finally informed us that this condition was terminal. During one of his stays in the hospital, we brought our baby daughter Chelsey with us when we visited him. By this time he had great difficulty speaking. I finally figured out that he wanted Chelsey to sit on his stomach so he could make faces at her.

Watching the two of them together, I realized I was living an experience that would stay with me forever. Though grateful for the times they could share, I couldn’t shake the feeling of a clock ticking in the background.

On the visit to my parents’ home during what we all know was my father’s last days, my mother took Chelsey from my arms and announced, “Your father would like to see you alone for a minute. ”

I entered the bedroom where my father lay on a rented hospital bed. He appeared even weaker than the day before.

“How are you feeling, Dad?” I asked. “Can I do anything for you?”

He tried to speak, but he couldn’t make out a word.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t understand you,” I said.

With great difficulty he said, “I love you.”

We don’t learn courage from heroes on the evening news. We learn true courage from watching ordinary people rise above hopeless situations. In many ways my father was a strict, uncommunicative man. He found it difficult to show emotion. The bravest thing I ever saw him do was overcome that barrier to open his heart to his son and family at the end of his life.

1. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.The writer accompanied his father to a medical examination.
B.The writer’s father got worse after the removal of the brain tumor.
C.The writer’s father had known about his illness before the writer discovered it.
D.The writer was quick to notice the strange condition of his father.
2. What does the underlined sentence “the odds are long” mean?
A.It takes a long time for Father to recover.
B.There’s little possibility for Father to recover.
C.Father needs love and care from his family.
D.They need a proper time to operate on Father.
3. The father had never said “I love you” to the writer before because______.
A.he was not used to openly showing his emotions
B.he was not so attached to the writer
C.he thought there was no need to tell the writer
D.he believed in strictness and punishment
4. What does the writer attempt to tell us?
A.Life is short, so live your life to the fullest.
B.Don’t wait to see a doctor till it is too late.
C.Bravely express your love for your family.
D.We don’t often value health until we lose it.

6 . Change is everything in the case of mobile phones. Recent research indicates that the mobile phone is changing not only our culture, but our very bodies as well.
First, let’s talk about culture. The difference between the mobile phone and its parent, the fixed-line phone, is that a mobile number corresponds to a person, while a landline goes to a place. If you call my mobile, you get me. If you call my fixed-line phone, you get whoever answers it.
This has several implications(含义). The most common one, however, and perhaps the thing that has changed our culture forever, is the “meeting” influence. People no longer need to make firm plans about when and where to meet. Twenty years ago, a Friday night would need to be arranged in advance. You needed enough time to allow everyone to get from their place of work to the first meeting place. Now, however, a night out can be arranged on the run. It is no longer “see you there at 8”,but “text me around 8 and we’ll see where we all are.”
Texting changes people as well. In their paper, “Insights into the Social and Psychological Effects of SMS (Short Message Service) Text Messaging", two British researchers distinguished between two types of mobile phone users: the “talkers” and the “texters”-those who prefer voice to text messages and those who prefer text to voice.
They found that the mobile phone’s individuality and privacy gave texters the ability to express a whole new outer personality. Texters were likely to report that their family would be surprised if they were to read their texts. This suggests that texting allowed texters to present a self-image that differed from the one familiar to those who knew them well.
Another scientist wrote of the changes that mobiles have brought to body language. There are two kinds that people use while speaking on the phone. There is the “speakeasy”: the head is held high, in a self-confident way, chatting away. And there is the “spacemaker”: these people focus on themselves and keep out other people.
Who can blame them? Phone meetings get cancelled or reformed and camera- phones intrude(侵入)on people’s privacy. So, it is understandable if your mobile makes you nervous. But perhaps you needn’t worry so much. After all, it is good to talk.
1. The “meeting” influence of a mobile phone refers to the fact that ________.
A.people are able to meet someone at any place and any time
B.people have to make a firm plan about when and where to meet
C.people can arrange their meeting place and time more flexibly
D.people have to attend more phone meetings than ever before
2. According to the two British researchers, the Social and Psychological Effects are most likely to be seen on ________.
A.talkersB.Texters
C.the “spacemaker”D.the “speakeasy”
3. We can infer from the passage that the texts sent by texters are _________.
A.shocking to others
B.well written
C.unacceptable by others
D.showing or making a new personality known
4. According to the passage, who is afraid of being heard while talking on the mobile?
A.talkersB.the “speakeasy”
C.the “spacemaker”D.texters
5. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.The Influence of Short Message Service
B.Body Language and the Mobile Phone
C.Changes in the Use of the Mobile
D.Changes Caused by Mobile Phone Use

7 . B
The image of a veiled(用面纱遮盖)bride walking down the aisle on her father's arm could become a thing of the past as a growing trend for 'feminist(女权主义者) weddings' has been detected among modern brides to be.
Doing away with the engagement ring, choosing not to be 'given away like property' and wearing a colour other than white are key themes gaining traction(牵引力) in the feminist wedding trend.
The findings, revealed in a survey of 200 brides to be, revealed that almost a quarter of women planned on keeping their maiden name after marriage, while one in 10 were planning to wear a colour other than white on their wedding day.       
Traditions such as the wearing of an engagement ring are also increasingly being rejected by brides who feel it is anti-feminist - with such an obvious token(记号) to be worn on the finger marking the woman in question as 'taken'.
However, while there is undoubtedly a stirring among young brides to be, parents can take comfort in the fact that while some women are beginning to push back against the patriarchy(家长制), the majority are still keen to uphold certain traditions, with 76 per cent of brides saying they really would like their father to walk them down the aisle.
Elki Parmar of Wedding Days.co.uk, who conducted the survey, said: “Some of the brides we have spoken to are doing things that they feel make their wedding more 'feminist'. That could be reflected by deciding not be given away, the idea being that one of the connotations of this tradition is that the woman is property to be given away. Other brides are choosing not to wear white on their wedding day as a woman’s white wedding dress traditionally carries connotations (含义)of virginal innocence whereas what the groom wears on his wedding day is not perceived(意识到) to be symbolic, creating somewhat of an imbalance from some feminist perspectives”.
1. Which of the following is not the symbol of traditional wedding?
A.The bride wears bridal veil.
B.The bride walks down the aisle on her father’s arm.
C.The bride wears the engagement ring.
D.The bride wears a color other than white.
2. Why do the brides reject to wear an engagement ring according to the passage?
A.Because it is too cheap.
B.Because it is not made of gold.
C.Because they don’t want to marry their husband.
D.Because it makes the women I question as “taken”.
3. What can we learn from the survey in Paragraph 2?
A.More than 200 brides were investigated.
B.Half of the brides won’t change their last name after marriage to their husband.
C.10% of them prefer to wear a color other than white on their wedding day.
D.No one wants to wear an engagement ring.
4. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.The tendency mentioned in the passage is becoming more and more popular.
B.Some women are beginning to push back against their parents.
C.The majority of brides don’t like their father to walk them down the aisle.
D.Some brides regard wearing white on their wedding day as a symbol of unequal between men and women.

8 . A
        Fat and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis, cricket--- anything with a round ball, I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym classes in Devonshire, England.
        It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set up his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first marathon.
        The following year he met John Ridgway and was hired as an instructor at Ridgways school of adventure in Scotland, where he learnt about Ridgway’s cold-water exploits. Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures, the decided that this would be his future.
        In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite, ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his supply-loaded sled up and over rocky rice.
        Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he’s skied more of the North Pole by himself than any other British man. His old playmates would not believe the change.
        Next October, Saunders, 27, heads south from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, a 2900-kilometer journey that has never been completed on skis.
1. What change happened to Saunders after he was 15 years old?
A.He became good at most sports.
B.He began to build up his body.
C.He joined a sports team
D.He made friends with a runner.
2. The underlined word “exploits” (paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to ______.

C.adventuresD.operations. W
3. What does the story mainly tell us abut Saunders?
A.He is a success in sports.
B.He is the best British skier.
C.He is Ridgway’s best student.
D.He is a good instructor at school.

The result: Food was all I thought about. ________ had to be some way to combine cooking with healthful eating. I found the ________after reading several low-fat cookbooks. With some trial and error, I could modify my favorite foods and make them low in fat, yet delicious.

The pounds started coming off, and when I started exercising (usually cardio and weight training five times a week), they seemed to melt away. I didn’t feel deprived, and I felt free to give my body the care and attention it ________.

I lost 165 pounds over the next two years. I had many ups and downs. I was determined to go on. Another challenge to me was not to beat myself up if I ate something that was unhealthy and to take it as a sign to abandon my healthful habits. Instead I vowed to start again and always keep my goal in mind.

Thanks to losing weight and becoming fit I am ________ my body and myself. I have finally found myself.
