第一节(共15小题；每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A Do you enjoy seeing the stars twinkling at night ? Or do you love the ocean and sea, diving and racing with lovely dolphins? With heavy burdens on their shoulders, teenagers find it hard to pull out. Even if they are free, they prefer to occupy themselves with computer games or watching TV. How to get children away from screens is a great concern for parents. Now there is some good news for those concerned parents and teachers.
A campaign is being launched to encourage children to spare 30 minutes of screen time a day to head for the great outdoors.
The newly formed Wild Network – a combination of nearly 400 organizations – is attempting to attract youngsters away from television and computer screen and into fields, woods and parks.
Organizers say it is the UK's biggest ever campaign to reconnect children with nature and outdoor play, and claim it could help improve fitness, mental alertness and general well–being.
A documentary film, Project Wild Thing, will announce the launch in advance at more than 50 cinemas across the UK from Friday. It looks at the increasingly fragile link between children and nature.
Members of the network include the National Trust, RSPB, Play England and the NHS sustainable development unit.
Andy Simpson, chairman of the Wild Network, said: \tragic truth is that kids have lost touch with nature and the outdoors in just one generation.\ranges have fallen to a large degree, activity levels are declining and the ability to identify common species has been lost.\
Suggestions of how to get more time in nature include collecting conkers（板栗）, camping or snail racing, and observing autumn colour on trees.
From January, the network will aim to make suggestions to politicians on how government can do more to get children muddy and bright-eyed. This is not the first time the message of less screen, more play has been brought up. Children in the 1980s were called on to do the same by the BBC TV series Why Don't You, which somewhat confusingly called on its viewers to \off your TV set, and go do something less boring instead\
51. What is the main purpose of the campaign in UK?
A. To save 30 minutes for watching TV programme each day. B. To encourage children to play outdoors.
C. To see the documentary film, Project Wild Thing.
D. To teach students how to learn more efficiently in schools.
52. According to the organizers of Wild Network, there will be many advantages from the campaign except _______.
- 4 -
A. improving health conditions B. keeping touch with nature
C. learning more about wildlife D. teaching children how to make full use of their spare time
53. The underlined part ― to get children muddy and bright-eyed ‖ means ―_______ ‖. A. to make children covered with mud
B. to urge politicians to do more things for children
C. to encourage children to take part in outdoors activities D. to help children identify common species
54. Which of the following could be the best title for the passage? A. A new campaign. B. Less screen, more play outdoors. C. A newly formed Wild Network. D. Children get to know wild things.
B
I remember the first time that I was extremely happy, I was about 8 years old when for the first time, there was a computer in the classroom. I remember that my teacher allowed each student to take turns to play various educational games on the computer. One day, I found the source code for one of these games. Without knowing or being taught any programming language, I was able to figure out some of the BASIC code. I just gave myself a limitless number of lives in the game, so I could continue playing it forever. This was also my first introduction to algebra（代数）, and I didn’t even know it at the time. This was a decisive moment in my life. I was quite excited because of what I was learning and what I was able to do. As a result, I was enthusiastic for the rest of my life about self-learning and computers, and I was quite happy doing them too.
I’ve noticed that people who are truly content with life are enthusiastic about what they do. This enthusiasm, along with good health, is the key to being happy. It also leads to self-confidence and content in life too. It may also lead to success, wealth and achievements.
Success, wealth or achievements can also bring some people happiness, yet I know plenty of rich people who are unhappy. I know many people with successful businesses that are not happy with what they are doing. I know people who continuously buy themselves new toys, such as cars, computers, and televisions, yet never seem content for too long. Please remember, happiness is the journey of life, not the destination.
55. What can we know from Paragraph 1? A. The author has a great talent for algebra.
B. Creative thinking is necessary for every child. C. The BASIC code of the computer is not difficult.
D. The author’s experience in his childhood changed his life. 56. The author wants to tell us through the first paragraph that____.
A. interest is the best teacher B. children are the hope of the future C. young people are fearless D. where there’s a will , there’s a way 57. What is the secret of happiness in the author’s opinion?
A. Success and wealth. B. Gifts and self-confidence. C. Enthusiasm and good health. D. Knowledge and achievements. 58. We can infer from the last paragraph that ______. A. rich people generally feel unhappy
B. wealth can’t bring people any happiness
- 5 -
C. one will feel unhappy once he has gained all the things he wants
D. being enthusiastic about what you are doing is more important than wealth C NO PLANS FOR THE HOLIDAYS?

You are from a middle- class family, and live in a normal-size home without any showy possessions, but you are surrounded by surprising consumption(消费). This contrast is beginning to bother your 6-year-old son. You are worried that he will want to live as they do, and wonder if you
- 6 -
should move.
Sometimes big pocket money, joyful birthday parties, special playrooms and super-big houses tell you that your neighbors probably have more money than you do, and that they’re not as careful as you are with money, but you may find that they cook and dig in the garden with their children just as often as you do, talk with them as freely and read to them every night.
Or you may find that some of these parents stay in one wing of their big house while their child plays by himself, way off in a wing of his own. In that unfortunate case, he is basically growing up alone without being looked after properly, but this can happen to a child who lives in a normal-size house, too, if he has a TV, a computer and a few video games in his room. Even the most caring parent doesn’t walk in and out of it to see what show her child is watching, what Internet site he has found and if he’s still playing that video game.
Too much uncontrolled screen time may lead to a certain loss of innocence(天真),but mostly this child will lose the sense of unity and satisfaction, and if it doesn’t , you might decide to move. Don’t judge your neighborhood too harshly(严厉地)，though. There are some things that are right with almost any neighborhood and some things that are wrong with the best of them—like those super-big houses.
The wealth of their owners—and the way they throw money around—may make your son feel sorry for himself, unless you help him understand that you and his dad save some of the money, give some to people who don’t have enough and use the rest to pay for whatever the family needs.
Children want—should be provided with—explanations when their parents don’t give them what they want.
62. What is the problem with the worried parent in the text? A. Her house isn’t as big as her rich neighbors’ B. Her son is left alone without anyone in charge.
C. She worries about the effect of her neighbors on her son. D. She cannot provide her son with a special playroom.
63. In Paragraphs 2and 3, the author seems to agree that parents should____.
A. give their children more freedom B. spend more time with their children
C. work hard to lead a richer life D. set an example for their children to follow 64. By saying ―throw money around‖(Paragraph 5),the author means that rich people___. A. save money for their children B. spend money carelessly
C. help the poor people willingly D. leave money all round the house 65. What is the main idea the author aims to express in the text? A. Children are unfortunate to have poor parents. B. Children should enjoy their comfortable life.
C. Children feel ashamed of themselves in a rich neighborhood. D. Children need proper guidance from their parents.

Three Ways to Be More Confident
You may have many fears when you want to do something．This not only limits your potential in life but it also minimizes your ability to make a positive impact on the world around you． 66 One thing that will definitely help is working on your confidence． Know your strengths and weaknesses．
- 7 -
As you learn who you are，you gain confidence and also learn your weaknesses． 67 For one thing，it can be hard to know which parts of you are you，and which parts are who you think you should be．A good start is to identify your strengths and weaknesses and then weigh those against what you enjoy．It might help to list five things you do well that you enjoy and five things you’d like to do well．Make an effort to use some of the first list and work on some of the second every day．
68 Confidence comes not from knowing you know everything，but from knowing you can handle what comes up．No one in the world knows everything． 69 Don’t weigh your security against what you know or can do；weigh it against your willingness and capacity to learn．Don’t worry if you’re not sure of what you can do now—be sure to trust in your own potential． Practice confidence．
It can be practiced－and with that practice you will get better． 70 A great opportunity to do this is when you meet new people．Just like if you were the new kid in school，they have no idea who you are－meaning you have an opportunity to show them．
A．Learn to receive praise． B．Trust your capabilities．
C．Learning who you are doesn’t happen overnight． D．There’s a lot that can help overcome those fears．
E．Everyone is good at some things and not so good at others．
F．Like anything else in life，your confidence will improve with practice．
G．Maybe sometimes you didn’t believe you could do most of the things you wanted to do．

Education Department of our country calls for ―Exercise one hour a day, work healthily for 50 years, and live a whole happy life. ‖ The students in our school have had a discussion about whether high school students should take physical exercise every day.
65% of the students agree to the idea that they should take exercise every day. Exercise can build up one’s body and reduce diseases. What’s more , exercise make their brains have a rest so that they will be more energetic, which is good for study. Although study is very important, good health comes first.
On the other hand, 35% students don’t think they should take exercise every day. They think time is limited so high school students should devote their energy to study and more sports make them tired easily, which does harm to study. Besides, it’s possible to get hurt in sports.
Personally, I think it a good idea for us senior students to have daily exercise.
Although we take an hour a day for exercise, it is well worth it. Taking exercise helps us build up our body and keep a clear mind. Therefore we can work more efficiently. 听力材料
