Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening By Robert Frost Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow. My little horse must think it queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year. He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake. The only other sound’s the sweep Of easy wind and downy flake. The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep. 25. This is most probably ________. A. a play

On December 24, kids around the world waited for Santa Claus (圣诞老人) . They thought that the fat, white - bearded man would bring them gifts. But do you know that some people would rather keep Santa out of the door?
Last month, 10 doctoral (博士的) students from Tsinghua, Peking and Renmin Universities said Santa Claus wasn’t welcome in China.
“Foreign holidays like Christmas are now very popular in China, while fewer and fewer people celebrate traditional Chinese festivals like the Dragon Boat Festival,” said the students in a public letter.
They asked people to stop sending Christmas cards and giving gifts to their children. Instead, they said, Chinese should spend more time on traditional festivals.
They have lots of support. In Hunan, several people went out on the street on Christmas Day. They made poems and wrote Chinese calligraphy (书法) .
“Rather than spending money on Christmas, we should care more about our own culture,” said one of them.
But others have different ideas. “Celebrations of foreign holidays help us know more about foreign cultures. It is good for us to make friends,” said Liu Yang, a 14 - year - old boy from Shanghai.
Sun Long, 13, from Beijing, sees the celebration as a way to make people happier and closer. “My school held a big party on Christmas Day. We played games and shared gifts with each other. I think we have got closer,” he said.
56. Why did some people not like Santa Claus? Because ______. A. he was fat and white bearded B. he was kind
C. he stopped some Chinese from caring more about their own cultures D. he had lots of presents but usually stayed out of the door 57. Which of the following is true?
A. Some college students wanted Chinese people to pay more attention to traditional Chinese festivals.

58. What did people do in China after the 10 students’ letter came out?
A. They stopped sending Christmas cards and giving gifts to their children. B. They made poems and wrote Chinese calligraphy. C. Few of them cared more about their own culture. D. Many of them supported the students’ idea.
59. What did a student called Sun Long think of foreign holidays? A. It was good to make friends.
B. It was helpful to know more about cultures. C. It was a happy time to relax and get closer. D. It was a good time to get gifts.
60. The best title for this passage is ______. A. Santa Claus B. A Public Letter C. Foreign Holidays D. Celebration of Christmas 题材：节假日评论。
【主旨大意】这是一篇报道说明文。上个月10 位来自清华、北大、人大的博士生提出了“圣诞老人在中国不受欢迎”。学生们在公开信中提出“国人对外国节日的热情过度高涨，而对传统的节日热爱的人却越来越少了”有些人很支持这这种观点，但也有人持不同的看法。
56. C【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段Foreign holidays like Christmas are now very popular in China, while fewer and fewer people celebrate traditional Chinese festivals like the Dragon Boat Festival可知，外国假日在中国非常流行，而对中国传统节日关注的国人却越来越少。由此推知，人们不喜欢外国的圣诞节是因为圣诞老人妨碍国人对传统节日的关注。故选C。 57. A 【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段中的Instead, they said, Chinese should spend more time on traditional festivals可知大学生提出那些观点目的是想让人们更加关注传统的节日。故选A。
58. D 【解析】细节理解题。根据第五段中的They have lots of support.可知这10个写信倡议关注中国传统节日的学生得到了许多人的支持。故选D。

60. B 【解析】标题归纳题。阅读文章知，清华、北大、人大的10名博士生写了一封公开信提议中国人应该多关注中国传统的节日，而不是去关注外国节日。围绕此封公开信，有人表示支持，有人表示反对。因此用A Public Letter作文本文的标题是非常合适的。故选B。

Could the students from less developed areas in central and western China get the same educational chances as those in big cities in the east? Could the children in poor rural(农村) area develop as well as those in rich cities? Maybe the answers were “No” in the past. But now, China is trying to change the situation.
In order to help rural students grow taller and stronger, China’s Nutrition (营养) Improvement Program started in 2011. According to the program, a lot more money was spent improving students’ meals. More than 36 million students from 134.000 primary and junior high schools in poor rural areas have benefited from the program. They are provided with healthy food like eggs and milk from Monday to Friday at school. And the result of a survey shows that the students in those areas arc much taller and stronger than before.
It is true that there were differences between less developed areas and developed areas in education before. Recently, The Guideline for Popularizing High School Education ( 2017 - 2020) has come out. According to the guideline, above 90% students from all over the country will go to high schools by 2020. What’s more, the schools in central and western areas will get more support to improve their education.
Students from rural and poor areas also get more chances to receive higher education. A special college program makes it possible for more students from those areas to go to key (重点的)colleges and universities. The number will be increased by 10% in 2017.
With the guideline and the program, we can expect a fairer and more balanced (均衡的) education in the future.
60. The number 134.000 in Paragraph 2 is the number of _________in poor rural areas. A. the key high schools B. the poor students C. the key colleges and universities D. the primary and junior high schools 61. The underlined word “benefited” in Paragraph 2 means _________in Chinese. A. 逃离 B. 获益 C. 受害 D. 赚钱
62. If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best? (①= Para.(自然段）1 ②=Para. 2 ③=Para. 3 ④=Para. 4 ⑤=Para. 5) A. ① ②; ③ ④; ⑤ B. A. ①; ② ③; ④ ⑤ C. ① ;② ③ ④; ⑤ D. ① ②; ③; ④ ⑤
63. After reading thin passage, we can infer(推断）that____________
A. Liu Xi, a student from Chongqing, can go to any high school if she wants to B. Li Mei, a student from a western rural school, can get a bag of milk
C. Hu Jia, a 12-year-old rural student, will more easily receive high school education D. Han Lei, a student from Beijing, will have few chances to go to key universities 题材：社会文化
