阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didn’t like attention drawn to myself. And   36    otherwise assigned(指定)a seat by the teacher, I always    37   to sit at the back of the classroom.
All this    38    after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy   39    because I didn’t have a good sense of balance, nor did I have the   40   to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my “   41   for  it”, I wouldn’t have decided to give a try.
Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the    42   of it! When I first started  43    the practice sessions, I didn’t even know the rules of the game, much    44  what I was doing. Sometimes I’d get     45    and take a shot at the wrong direction—which made me feel really stupid.   46    , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the game, so I decided to    47     on learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn’t    48   “just yet”.
I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the   49   and the “moves”. Being part of a team was fun and motivating. Very soon the competitive   50   in me was winning over my lack of confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the   51     — friends who respected my efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun!
With my    52    self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone from   “53”   in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself,   54   raising my hand— even when I sometimes wasn’t and not 100 percent   55   I had the right answer. Now I have more self-confidence in myself.
【文章大意】主人公本身没有能力或者不去想象,不敢想象自己有能力做某事,经过老师点拨,帮忙下克服自卑,并且学会了展示自己。
36. A. as            B. until             C. unless               D. though
【答案】C
【解析】考查上下文逻辑关系。and提示前后句间是并列关系,前一句说我不喜欢被别人关注,那么我一定总是坐在无人关注的角落,那么老师指派座位不过是一个想法、一种假设,于是选择C。
37. A. hoped         B. agreed           C. meant               D. chose
【答案】D
【解析】坐在教室的后面是我选择的。
38. A. continued      B. changed          C. settled              D. started
【答案】B
【解析】考查动词辨析。根据文章叙述,在参加了运动队后我之前的状况显然是改变了。选择B。
39. A. idea           B. plan             C.belief               D. saying
【答案】A
【解析】考查名词辨析。老师建议我参加篮球队这显然是一个想法,而我认为这很疯狂。其他选项中不要记错saying的含义,saying的含义是“谚语”,切忌。
40. A. right          B. chance           C. ability               D.patience
【答案】C
【解析】考查名词辨析。与其他人保持同步这是我的一种“能力”的体现,这与“权利”、“机会”或者“耐心”没有任何关联。
41. A. going          B. looking          C. cheering             D. applying
【答案】A
【解析】考查动词辨析。it显然指代我参加篮球队这件事情,那么对这件事情老师坚持的就是让我去尝试其他选项中,“欢呼”与“看”显然是无关选项,而既然老师已经积极鼓励我说明他已经同意了,无需我再申请,那么排除D,最终选择A。
42. A. point           B. half             C. rest               D. basis
【答案】B
【解析】本题考查名词辨析。句末的叹号提示这里有极端情况出现,所以才会感叹。而鼓起勇气去选拔赛仅仅是成功的“一点”、“剩下”或者“基础”显然不合理,于是选择B,仅仅是一半,体现了感叹。
43. A. enjoying         B. preparing        C. attending            D. watching
【答案】C
【解析】本题考查动词,根据动作的先后顺序,我显示鼓起勇气参加了选拔赛,而后文又说我不懂规则,那么昭示着我此时正在训练赛中,选择C,参加比赛。prepare的含义是“准备”,强调动作尚未做出。
44. A. less             B. later           C. worse            D. further
【答案】A
【解析】考查形容词辨析。修饰后半句“我正在做的事情”,因为前文交代了我的平衡能力差,跟不上大家的步伐,甚至不知道规则,那么我此时做的事情必然是有欠缺,于是选择A。
45. A. committed        B. motivated      C. embarrassed       D. confused
【答案】D
【解析】本题考查形容词辨析。描述我的状态。那么把球投进自己的篮筐(即乌龙球),显然我这时是混乱了,于是选择D。confused的确切含义是“混乱”,指遇到某事大脑一片空白,不知道如何处理的状态。
46. A. Interestingly       B. Fortunately     C. Obviously         D. hopefully
【答案】B
【解析】考查副词辨析。“幸运的是”修饰后一句“我不是唯一的新人”,选择B。本题与“有意思地”或者“有希望地”无关,而前文没有叙述任何其他人的表现,则无法明显的判断出我不是唯一的新人,于是排除C,最终选择B。
47. A. focus            B. act            C. rely            D. try
【答案】A
【解析】考查动词辨析。该动词与介词on构成词组修饰后句“学习打球”。
48. A. want             B. do           C. support          D. know
【答案】D
【解析】考查动词辨析。修饰后句“just yet”(恰好现在),那么我不满现状而加倍努力训练,现在又说恰好现在的状态我不对自己太过苛责,那么首先可排除“支持”,无关选项;而因为我在发奋努力训练,现在“想要”或者“支持”的东西自然是要严格要求的,那么排除A、B,最终选择D,不对自己恰在此时知道的东西过多苛责。
49. A. steps            B. orders          C. rules             D. games
【答案】C
【解析】考查名词辨析。前文叙述我连规则都不知道,于是发奋练球的直接结果就是知道了规则并且已经知道了篮球运动中移动的动作要领。
50. A. roles           B. part           C. mind            D. value
【答案】B
【解析】考查名词辨析。与形容词competitive及动词词组win over(争取到)相关联,那么首先可排除D,竞争与价值不能匹配;而我的竞争绝不是一个“角色”那么简单,也不仅存于“思想”,于是选择B。
51. A. process         B. operation       C. movement        D. situation
【答案】A
【解析】考查名词辨析。破折号的作用是解释说明,那么知道尊重我的努力的朋友一定是看到我的成长的朋友,也即我在这个过程中认识的朋友,于是选择A。
52. A. expressed      B. improved       C. preserved       D. recognized
【答案】B
【解析】考查形容词辨析。根据前文叙述,我是一个由没自信到拥有自信的人,那么我的自信是不断增

“I Went Skydiving at 84!”
As a young girl growing up in the 1930s, I always wanted to fly a plane, but back then it was almost unheard of for a woman to do that. I got a taste of that dream in 2011,when my husband arranged for me to ride in a hot air balloon for my birthday. But the experience turned out to be very dull. Around that time,I told my husband that I wanted to skydive. So when our retirement community(社区)announced that they were having an essay competition and the topic was an experience of a lifetime that you wanted to have, I decided to write about my dream.
In the essay, I wrote about my desire to skydive, stating George Brush Sr. did it at age 80. Why not me? I was just 84 and in pretty good health. A year went by and I heard nothing. But then at a community party in late April 2009, they announced that I was one of the winners. I just couldn’t believe it. Inspired by this.I deeided to realize my dream,even though some of my family members and my doctor were against it.
On June 11, 2009, nearly 40 of my family and friends gathered in the area close to where I would land while I headed up in the airplane. My instructor, Jay, guided me through the experience. The plane was the noisiest one I had ever been in, but I wasn’t frightened—I was really just looking forward to the experience. When we reached 13,000 feet, Jay instructed me to throw myself out of the plane. When we first hit the air, the wind was so strong that I could hardly breathe. For a second I thought, “What have I gotten myself into?” But then everything got calmer. We were in a free fall for about a minute before Jay opened the parachute(降落伞), then we just floated downward for about five minutes. Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I have ever felt—much better than the hot air ballon. I was just enjoying it.
Skydiving was really one of the greatest experiences of my life. I hope other people will look at me and realize that you don’t stop living just because you are 84 years old. If there’s something you want to experience, look into it. If it’s something that is possible, make it happen.
从文章的标题就可以看出,即“I went to skydiving at 84”,接着作者说了在2001年的时候,她在她丈夫的帮助下,小尝试了一下skydiving,不过,but the experience turned out to be very dull. 后来,在2009年的June 11, 即2009年6月11号,作者终于实现了她的梦想。
56. What happened to the auther in 2001?
A. She flew an airplane              B. She entered a competition

58. How did the author feel immediately after she jumped out of the plane?
A. Excited           B. Scared      C. Nervous        D. Regretful
答案D。推理判断题。由上文作者but I wasn’t frightened和下文When we reached 13,000 feet, Jay instructed me to throw myself out of the plane. When we first hit the air, the wind was so strong that I could hardly breathe. For a second I thought, “What have I gotten myself into?” But then everything got calmer.推知作者刚跳出飞机那一刻是非常遗憾的。
59. What did the author enjoy most when she was skydiving?
A.The beautiful clouds     B. The wonderful view
C. The company of Jay     D. The one-minute free fall
答案C。细节理解题。由文章Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I

Students and Technology in the Classroom
I love my blackberry—it’s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me . I also love my laptop computer ,as it holds all of my writing and thoughts .Despite this love of technology ,I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices(设备) and truly communicat with others.
On occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas .Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom ,I have a rule —no laptop ,iPads ,phones ,etc .When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy .
Most students assume that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology . There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students assume that I am anti-technology . There’s no truth in that at all . I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.
The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas . I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course the material and the class discussion .
I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create .Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge , they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom .
I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change ,I’m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.
【文章大意】议论文,文章论述的主题是,"students and technology",文章以教师的口吻谈到为何不允许学生在课堂上玩ipad、手机等通讯工具,因为technology会影响我们的深入交流。

答案A。细节理解题,由I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas. 可知technology会影响我们深入的交流。Engage与explore探索意义表述与之吻合。
65.According to the author ,the use of technology in the classroom may ____
A. keep students from doing independent thinking
B. encourage students to have in-depth conversations
C. help students to better understand complex themes
D. affect students’ concentration on course evaluation
答案A。推理判断题。由Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge , they learn at a level that

As the railroads and the highways shaped the American West in the past centuries, a new electhical generating(发电)and transmission(输送)systen for the 21th century will leave a lasting mark on the West, for better or worse. Much of the real significance of railroads and highways is not in their direct physical effect on the scenery, but in the ways that they affect the suurouding community. The same is true of big solar ppants and the power lines that will be laid dowm to move electricity around.
The 19th century saw land grants(政府拨地)offered to railroad companies to build the transcontinental railroads ,leaving public land in between privately owned land . In much of the west ,some of the railroad sections were developed while others remained undeveloped ,and in both cases the landownership has presented unique challenges to land management ,with the completion or the interstate highway system ,many of the small towns which sprang up as railway stops and developed well ,have lost their lifeblood and died .
Big solar plants and their power lines will also have effects far beyond their direct footprint in the west .this is not an argument against building then ,we need alternative energy badly .and to really take advantage of it we need to be able to move electricity around far more readily than we can now .
So trade-offs will have to be made .some scenic sport will be sacrificed .some species (物种)will be forced to move ,or will be carefully moved to special accommodations ,deals will be struck to reduce the immediate effects .
The lasting effects of these trade-offs are another matter .the 21st century development of the American west as an ideal place for alternative energy is going to throw off a lot of power and money to do a lot of good .but it is just as likely that they will be spent wastefully and will leave new problems behind ,just like the railroad and the highway .
The money set aside in negotiated trade –offs and the institution that control  will shape the west far beyond the immediate footprint of power plants and transmission lines .so let’s remember the effects of the railroad and the highways as we construct these new power plants in the west .

第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个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。
What is critical thinking ? to a certain degree ,it’s a matter of logic (逻辑)—of being able to spot weaknesses in other people ‘s argument and to avoid them in your own ,it also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence .
In the broad sense ,critical thinking is focused ,organized thinking –the ability to see clearly
their lationships among ideas. 71  the greatest thinkers ,scientists ,and inventors have often taken information that was readily available and put it together differently to produce new ideas.that,too,is critical thinking.
72    As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend a good deal of time organizing your speeches. While this may seem like a purely mechanical(机械的)exercise, it is closely connected with critical thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking. If the stucture of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking is also discovered and confused. If, on the other hand ,the stucture is clear, there is a good chance your thinking is too. Organizing a speech is not a matter of arraging the ideas your already have.    73
What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking.   74   As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language, you will Improve your ability to think clearly and accutately.   75    As you learn to listen critically to speeches in class. You will be better able to assess the ideas of speakers in a variety of situations.
If you take full advantage of your speech class, you will be able to develop your skills as critical thinker in many circumstances. This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece., it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.
A. Rather Public speaking and critical thinking
B. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.
C. It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech.
D. It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, only reorganized ideas.
E. If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking class, the answer is quite a lot.
F. The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more effective thinker in a number of ways.
G. As you study the role of evidence and reasoning in speechmaking ,you will see how they can be used in other forms of communication as well.
该题把文章的内容锁定在更为抽象的思考能力和演讲能力上,这也使得文章的难度自然上升了一些。从挖空的位置来说, 5个空覆盖了段首、段中和段末,这5个空集中出现在文章的中间部分,在文章的首末段均为出现。而74空和75空同时出现在一段,也是与去年小小的不同的地方。七选五题目考查的无非是考生连接上下文的能力,对某段概括的能力和总结的能力。做题的思路基本上第一步,理清文章总所挖空位置与上下文的逻辑关系;第二步,看选项内容核心部分是否与原文的上下文合理对照。在第一步,所给选项大部分选项的第一个词都限定了明确的使用条件,例如A选项的rather表示转折的关系,B选项的this和C、D选项的it都表示指代关系。而75题所处位置在文章所处并列的逻辑关系,很简单就能选出正确答案。第二步,所给选项中核心部分有明显对应,例如71题周围频繁出现了organized, differently, new ideas对应着选项D中的new ideas, reorganized ideas这样的信息。再例如74题后面几个as的结构中分别有improve,be better等词语,对应着F选项中的a number of ways。

五、书面表达 内容要点: 1 老师滑到 2 学生送宋老师看病 3.学生看望老师 4.老师会班上课
Last Monday ,we were having our Chinese class when the teacher suddenly slipped and fell. We were all worried about her .One of the boys carried her on the back, with the help of some others , to the clinic immediately. It turned out that her right leg was broken and she had to stay in the hospital . The following day ,we went to visit her with flowers and and fruit. Seeing her lying in bed with her leg wrapped in bandges , we felt sorry for her and hoped that she would cover soon. This Thursday , she returned to the class on a wheelchair to give us lessons .We were aal deeply moved and proud of having such a responsible teacher.
In the picture there stands a tree full of fruits on side of the stream . Across the stream ,a man is trying to reach out on the edge of the bank for the fruit with a net attached to a pole. Not far away there is a bridge that can lead him to the tree for more fruit. The message conveyed in the picture is clear. In pursuing a dream , we might focus on only one way of making it come true., forgetting that there may be alternatives. .As indicated in the picture, if the man is willing to look for other possibilities ,he can find a better and more rewarding way to achieve his goal. All he has to do is to turn around ,cross the bridge and walk to the tree.
