Monday started out great. I woke up on time, ate breakfast and did some last minute studying for my first hour math 36 . Ten minutes later, I sat by my friends on the bus. We were busily chatting about how we spent our 37 when, THUMP! Ryan 38 over someone’s foot and landed flat on his face in the passage between the two rows of seats.
Everyone on the bus laughed crazily. Ryan 39 himself up and made his way to an empty seat. He tried to laugh with us, but his face was bright red with 40 . The rest of the morning flew by. I did well in my math test. I read two more chapters of To Kill a Mockingbird in English class. It wasn’t long before the 41 bell sounded. I met my friends from the cheerleading team in the dining hall. Then I couldn’t help but 42 Ryan a few tables over, sitting alone. He caught me looking. I smiled at him quickly and turned away.
When we finished eating, we 43 out to the courtyard to practise a cheer we wanted to do at that night’s football game. After a little 44 , we nailed the cheer, so we decided we only needed to 45 through it one last time. Again, just like the rest of my day so far, the cheer was going great. I raised my leg 46 one last toe(脚趾) touch. RIIIPPP! I felt my jeans split down the middle of my backside.
I 47 . I didn’t know what to do but stayed still. Then I heard people laughing, and I saw them
3
pointing. Trying to 48 myself with my hands, I tried to 49 too, but I felt tears began to escape from my eyes. Then I saw Ryan walking toward me. I remembered earlier that morning when he had fallen and I had laughed at him. This would be his 50 to return the favor.
But he didn’t. 51 , Ryan offered me his jacket to cover up my 52 jeans. He also offered me his phone so that I could call my mom to bring me some 53 . I thanked Ryan for his help. And a few days later when I saw him again, I apologized for laughing at him on the bus. Ryan regarded it as no big deal, but my own 54 experience and Ryan’s kind response taught me about 55 for others. Thanks to Ryan, I can honestly say that Monday was still a great day! 36.

第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,共30分)
阅读下列短文,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。
A
Your car is a necessary part of your life. You use it every day. Of course, you want to hold on to it so you make sure it has the latest alarm and immobilizer(汽车防盗器). But despite all these, cars like yours are still stolen every day. In fact, in this country, one car is stolen almost every minute! And if your car is stolen, you only have a 50:50 chance of seeing it again. Each year, car crime costs nearly £3 billion. Of course, if you’re insured, you won’t lose out, or will you? Firstly, you will have to pay extra insurance later on, and then you may not be offered the full amount by the agent. You will probably have to hire a car and you will also lose the value of the contents and accessories(配件) in the car. Now comes the solution. An RAC Trackstar system, hidden in one of 47 possible secret locations(位置) in your car, is the key of our system. If your car is stolen, radio signals are sent at twenty-second intervals from the car to the RAC Trackstar National Control Center via a satellite network. Then a
4
computer gives the vehicle’s exact location, speed and direction. The RAC Trackstar National Control Center, which operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, will immediately inform the police in the area where the car is located. Because the police receive information every twenty seconds, they will always know the vehicle’s location. Once the thief has been arrested, your car will be returned to you.
RAC Trackstar is unique in being able to provide the National Control Center with details of the exact location of your car, its speed and direction. And speed is the key to successful recovery of a stolen vehicle. RAC Trackstar Control will immediately tell the police if you report your car stolen and under the 24-hour Guardian Option. It will also tell you if your car has been stolen. RAC Trackstar’s constant updates mean the police are kept informed of the car’s location. All these greatly improve your chances of seeing your car again.
56. If your car is stolen, you will have to _____.
A. hire a new car B. pay more insurance
C. buy a RAC Trackstar system
D. inform the National Control Center
57. The Trackstar system can tell the police _____.
A. where the car is B. how the car is stolen C. who the thief is D. what brand the car is 58. The underlined word “It” in the last paragraph refers to ______.
A. the local police station B. the Guardian Option C. the insurance company D. the RAC Trackstar Control 59. According to the passage, people with RAC Trackstar ______.
A. are more likely to get the stolen cars back B. have less chance of being in an accident C. seldom get their vehicles damaged D. automatically find directions
B
Hunger is the greatest motive for the inexperienced cook. But many people are now worried that we are producing a generation without the slightest idea of how to cook—a generation that is frightened to cook. I have just received a handout from Focus on Food, which is running a competition to get children back into the kitchen. Has television cooking become a replacement for the real thing? Is this an age where famous professional cooks have turned cooking into a sort of show, with dishes far too difficult for the beginner to copy?
I decided to ask my oldest daughter, Miranda, for her opinion. Are children learning enough about the importance of good cooking? Do they know cooking is a basic life skill? Sociology and other “new” subjects are all very well, but without the ability to cook, or to understand the pleasure and principles of good food and its relationship to good health, are we really preparing them for adult life?
Miranda started her cooking at the age of nine, when she decided to enter the Sainsbury’s Future Cook competition. She was motivated by a different kind of greed: the first prize—a trip to Disney World.
The problem, from the parental point of view, was that if she made it through to the regional(区域性的) finals, she would have to cook her meal in front of the judges. Some 30,000 children entered and she made it through as the youngest regional finalist. Now she had to learn to cook. Her hands were not even big enough to hold the knife and slice the onions. Six Saturdays running we ate the same lunch—
5
Mozzarella meatballs in fresh tomato juice and blueberry.
First, she cooked by my side, then alone with timings and instructions. Finally, she went alone against the clock. The kitchen looked like a battlefield, but she had gained victory. The tiny be-capped figure then stood in an unknown Bristol hotel, looking like a professional who had been at the stove for years. She didn’t win, but she came home with £50 and the most valuable part of them all: confidence. 60. The competition run by Focus on Food is intended for _________.
A. children B. parents C. teachers D. chefs 61. Why does the writer think cooking is so important?
A. It is an easy way to keep healthy. B. It helps develop relationships. C. It is a necessary skill for life. D. It can save a lot of money.
62. The writer’s family had the same lunch on six Saturdays because __________.
A. the family stuck to healthy food B. Miranda had to practise cooking
C. the dish was the family’s only food D. the dish was Miranda’s favorite meal 63. What did Miranda gain from the competition?
A. A trip to Disney World. B. Support from friends. C. A medal for the winner. D. Belief in herself.
C
Small seating in the economy-class(经济舱) sections of airplanes is not just uncomfortable but potentially life-threatening. Space has become so tight that passengers cannot protect themselves in the event of a crash.
A report on a long distance flight from the doctors of Vienna stated that only 10% in economy class could adopt the recommended brace position on the plane’s safety tips in case of emergency, and they were the smallest of the group. And 30% of their fellow passengers traveling in first class could adopt the position, which is internationally recognized as improving the chances of survival in the event of a crash. The
authors of the report are now calling for greater space between seat rows to increase safety.
A spokesman for British Airways (BA), which is responsible for safety on all British planes, opposed the idea that small seating was a threat(威胁) to passengers. “We don’t think it is a safety matter,” he said, “We have high safety standards and all UK aircraft meet them.” In the past month, both British Airways and Virgin Atlantic introduced sleeper seats, stressing the outstanding comfort in the front of the planes. But that space gained is space lost in economy.
Until recently, economy class was at least “bearable”—with an 86-centimeter seat. Scheduled Airlines such as BA and KLM gave passengers enough leg room and comfortable seats. But the arrival of new, weight-saving seats caused economy class to take a turn for the worse. Extra rows have been put into the plane, with the result that the average seat now is 79 centimetres. Singapore Airlines has become the latest carrier to narrow down its seats. It announced free wine for economy passengers last September, but at the
6
same time reduced leg room by 8 centimetres.
Economy class on Scheduled Airlines is now often little better than economy on Qatar Airways. Some Qatar Airways even offer the chance to upgrade—at a price—to seats which, at 89-91 centimetres, are roomier than those of most Scheduled Airlines. 64. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Scheduled Airlines produced new comfortable seats for economy class. B. Doctors from Vienna said less space between seats could cause danger. C. Spokesman for BA declared that narrow seat space was a threat. D. Qatar Airways offered larger seats with no more charge.
65. What might be the author’s attitude towards reducing the space of economy seats? A. Neutral. B. Sceptical. C. Supportive. D. Disapproving. 66. Where does the passage most probably come from? A. A biography. B. A book review. C. A magazine. D. A realistic novel.
D
According to game maker Hasbro, approximately 750 million people have played the well-known game Monopoly since it was invented in the 1930s. Charles Darrow is typically credited as the inventor of the world’s most famous board game. However, he likely originated his version of Monopoly from one of several other games similarly involving house buying and selling that were already in existence before the 1930s when he got his patent (专利) for the game.
A probable reason that Darrow’s Monopoly became the hugely successful game that still exists today is that he took a great approach to producing it. Other similar games existed, but they had no board or regulation pieces. With the help of his wife and son,who decorated the sets with details, Darrow personally created the pieces and boards that became the first Monopoly game sets. His extra work in creating the entire environment that players needed gave his game something extra that other variations did not have. Darrow had success in selling his games in various parts of the country. Several Philly area stores were the first to carry his game and sell it in large quantities. However, Darrow had difficulty selling his game to the major game producer of the time, Parker Brothers. He was told that his game was too complex and had fundamental errors in its design that would limit its appeal. Eventually, the continued sales he managed on his own forced Parker Brothers to reassess the worth of his game. In the end, the company agreed to produce the game and shortly afterwards it became the bestselling game in the country. That success turned Charles Darrow into a millionaire, which is the heavy irony. Darrow initially began work on Monopoly to help support himself and his family following the financial troubles tied to the stock market crash of 1929. Thus, Charles Darrow became a millionaire by producing a game that allows “regular” people to feel like they are buying and selling real homes and land like millionaires. 67. What made Darrow’s Monopoly different from other similar games?
A. The way of avoiding financial troubles. B. The safe environment created for players.
C. The buying and selling of real homes and land. D. The specific pieces and a playing board in each set. 68. The author suggests in Paragraph 3 that ______.
A. Monopoly was initially too complex to play B. Darrow failed to make expected profit in Philly C. certain errors in Monopoly limited its attraction
D. some people once doubted Monopoly would be popular
7
69. What does the underlined word “irony” in the last paragraph mean?
A. financial gain B. unexpected result C. marketing plan D. unsatisfying reward 70. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The difficulties in Darrow’s life.
B. The comparison of some board games. C. The way to the success of Darrow’s game. D. The business management of Parker Brothers. 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。 We all regard receiving presents as a pleasant experience and yet it can be one of the most awkward situations. It is often difficult to look pleased when you receive a gift which is entirely useless or the wrong size.
71 However, you have no right to change an article purchased just because it does not fit or is not to your liking. Worse still, the agreement on the sale is between the person who bought it and the shop.
So you will have to tell your favorite aunt that the T-shirt does not fit. But an exchange is not always that simple because there has to be a good reason for it. 72 For example, if the buyer was told that a switch was voice operated and later found out it was not, then action could be taken. You would have the right to return it and get the money back.
But if you are returning something, no matter what the reason is, you will be expected to have proof of purchase. If the receipt cannot be found, then it is possible to use another proof of purchase such as a credit card receipt. 73 Many big stores have a much more tolerant policy towards returns and see it as a gesture of goodwill to exchange goods without question. Stores including Marks & Spencer are well known for their “no argument” policy on returned goods. 74
So if a shop refuses to exchange the goods or to offer a refund(退款), the seller is likely to be within his legal rights unless there is something wrong with the goods. In that case, the boot is on the other foot. You have every right to demand a cash refund or a replacement, but only if you have returned it within a “reasonable” time.
75 Some shops and stores expect things to be returned within a week of purchase, while others may permit a much longer time limit. In any case if you return a thing after what is considered a “reasonable” time, then all you are legally entitled to is the cost of repair. A. It is unlike anything you would buy for yourself.
B. If all of these have been lost, you may have to rely on a witness. C. However, shoppers should remember this is a privilege, not a right.
D. Unfortunately, the law does not explain what is meant by “reasonable”. E. All you can do is exchange it after your friend or relative has gone home.
F. Either the thing has to be broken or unsuitable for the job it was intended to do.
G. You should make clear what your legal position is before returning goods to the shops. 第四部分:书面表达(共两节,35分) 第一节(15分)

With the situation getting worse, I had to go to see a doctor. The doctor gave me a physical examination and I had my eyes examined as well. The doctor advised me to do some exercise in the open air as much as possible. To improve my health, I accepted his advice and began to ride bicycle every weekend. And now I’m feeling much better. 附:听力录音材料 Text 1 M: I didn’t expect to see you today. So, how was your holiday? W: Not bad. The hotel was the first class and the food couldn’t be better. But the weather was not as expected. I stayed in the hotel most of the time. Text 2 W: What pet would you like? I think a parrot would be great. M: But it’s noisy. What about rabbits? They don’t make any noise, do they? 12
W: Rabbits? What on earth …? M: Just kidding. What I really want is a dog. Text 3 W: Hi, George. This is Mary. I’m afraid we have to change the arrangement we made yesterday. My aunt Lucy is ill, so I must visit her in the hospital. We can still meet in the same place but later … at 8 o’clock. Give me a ring if you can make it. Text 4 M: I’ve really been looking forward to this film for ages. The reviews say there’s even more action than in other films. W: They say it’s just as funny as before. I believe we’ll have a few laughs. I really don’t like films with sad endings. But the queue to get the tickets is horribly long. Text 5 M: We earn the same, but I find it impossible to save a penny. W: First you should arrange your finances carefully. Work out how much you can save by writing down the money you must spend. Then allow a certain amount for the unnecessary things. Text 6 W: Good morning, sir. Can I help you? M: Yes. I bought this watch here last Monday and it stopped working. W: Do you have the receipt? M: Yes. Here it is. W: OK. We’ll have it checked and repaired. M: How long will that take? W: Your watch should be ready next Tuesday. M: Can I have it this Friday? W: Sorry. It usually takes four or five days. M: But that’s far too long. May I speak to the manager, please? Text 7 W: You’re not very talkative today, Eric. What’s up? M: Nothing, Cathy. I’m just feeling pretty tired because I spent hours sitting in traffic jams today. I had to go into the city centre. W: You couldn’t have picked a worse day to drive into the centre. There was a transport strike. Didn’t you listen to the news? M: Now I understand. I thought it was strange that there were no buses around. Anyway, I didn’t have a choice. So how did you handle today? You work in the centre, don’t you? W: Yes, but I got a lift from Lily. We left home much earlier than usual to avoid the rush hour traffic and we left work early, too. Text 8 M: Hello, this is Martin. 13
W: Hello, Martin! This is Tanya. There have been some changes for the meeting tomorrow. M: OK. I’ll get a pen to write the information down. W: The meeting is being held at the Wilton Hotel, not the City Library. The next thing is your speech. You’ll need some more copies of the report to hand out. How many have you got? M: Exactly 50. W: Well, according to my information, there’ll be 60 people attending the meeting, I’m afraid. M: Fine. I can do that. I’ll prepare 70 copies. I’ll drop in at the office on my way to the coach station. W: Thanks a lot and sorry for bothering you so much. Text 9 M: Hi, Alice. Where were you at the weekend? W: I did some walking up on the mountain in Scotland. M: Did you go by yourself? W: No, I went with Tina. It was great to get away from the dirt and noise of the city. M: It must have cost quite a bit. W: It wasn’t too expensive. We went there by train. And we got cheap tickets for students. M: What about the hotel? They are never cheap. Don’t tell me you took a tent with you. W: No. we stayed in a tree house which has low cost. M: Were you alone in the tree house? It must be frightening in there at night. W: No, we were fine. Because it was a weekend, there were quite a few other walkers around. And it was amazing. Why don’t you join us next time? You’d enjoy it. M: Wasn’t it tiring? W: Not at all. Text 10 M: Hello, everyone! Welcome to Master Chef. Today is Sunday, April 10th. Our sweet recipe for today is Apple Snow. It’s a traditional west country dish. The recipe was sent in by Mr. Tom Smith from Boston. Now, this is what you need: 700 grams of apples, 100 grams of sugar, 2 large eggs and one-third cup of water. And this is what you do: cut the apples and put them in a pan with water. Cook the apples gently until they are soft. Then, beat in the sugar until the mixture is smooth. Separate the eggs and beat the whites into the mixture. Finally, you place the “snow” into four individual glass serving dishes which you decorate with fruit. Now, a mouth-watering dish is ready. Do you have a recipe to share? If you do, please send it to Master Chef. Thank you!
