A
Whether you like it or not, I consider myself an honored member of East Asian society.
For
the past 2 years, I’ve had the privilege of travelling to various
countries in Asia, specifically Indonesia and China. These trips
weren’t the typical vacations that last for roughly two weeks and
consist of hurrying from one destination to the next. Rather, I
completely buried myself in the culture, staying in both Indonesia
and China for
After two continuous years of escaping to the Eastern Hemisphere, however, I’m staying at home.
Every day, I long for the thrill of travelling, the thrill of trying a new Asian dish, the thrill of bargaining with a vendor(小商贩) on the street for what caught my eye. I catch myself watching hours Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern, and replaying the parts where he visits a small town in China or a quiet village deep in Vietnam. Occasionally, I go through the pictures from my travels, thinking of the ones where my memories origin from.
My desire to travel, in fact, makes me incredibly impulsive. One day, I was watching my old friend Andrew Zimmern travel to Cambodia. I watched him taste the special foods and float down a large man-made lake, staying with locals trying to find dinner. The second the show ended, I ran upstairs to my computer and looked up plane tickets to Phnom Penh. It’s pitiful, I know.
I
apologize for this unhappy story that’s been a good portion of my
article. Let me try
to
Though I’m upset about not being able to travel for the
summer, staying in place does have its ups. I graduated from high
school just recently. As I walked across the stage, reaching out
for my high school principal’s hand with my right and taking
my
Additionally, I am pleased to say I have found a job this summer. I work at the Seneca Hill Animal Hospital and Resort where I look after dogs whose owners have left for summer vacation. The work may be hard, but at least it paid off.
All in all, life at home so far has not been all that difficult. I’m spending time with old friends, and earning for myself, two things that could not be done outside the US. Although I would have wanted to spend the summer in a magical land with foreign foods, languages, and people, I have to realize that life is what you make of it. That’s why I’m going to make my time at home the best vacation I’ve ever had.
41. According to the writer, a typical vacation is one ________.
B. where you stay in some place for seven weeks
D. where you needn’t hurry between destinations
42. The writer gives the example of Andrew Zimmern in Paragraph 4 to ________.
B. express his disappointment with his friends’ holiday
D. display his skills of taking photos
43. The underlined phrase “wrapped up” in paragraph 7 has a similar meaning to that in _______.
B. The meeting wrapped up and we soon left the lecture hall
C. She told the children to wrap up warm since it was so cold
D. The manager is wrapped up in his business, so just wait patiently
44. We can infer from the passage that _______.
B. during his stay at home, the writer never thought about his travelling
D. freed from trips, the writer actually gained much more than merely travelling
45. The best title of the passage can be _______.
B
Once again this year, like last, I have the honor of recommending a selection of books for the TED Bookstore. Below are this year’s picks, along with the original text that appears on the bookstore cards and the introduction.
1. TINY BEAUTIFUL THINGS
When a journalist by the name of “Dear Sugar” introduced herself on The Rumpus on March 11, 2010, she made her suggestions clear: a “by-the-book common sense of Dear Abby and the low quality of Cary Tennis and the rudeness of Dan Savage and…” But in the two-some years that followed, she went on to deliver something brief, more honest, more profound(深刻的). Collected in Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life from Dear Sugar, one of the best psychology and philosophy books of 2012, is her wholehearted wisdom on life’s trickiest contexts — sometimes the simplest, sometimes the most complex, always the most deeply human.
The questions
children ask are often so simple, so basic, that they
turn unclear yet profound philosophy into requiring
apple-pie-from-scratch type of answers. To explore
this
3. WHERE THE HEART BEATS
In Where the Heart Beats, which was also one of the best philosophy books of 2012, longtime art critic and practicing Buddhist Kay Larson constructs an intellectual, creative, and spiritual biography of John Cage — one of the most influential composers in modern history, yet also one of history’s most misunderstood artists , whose impact reaches beyond the field of music and into art, literature, cinema. Fifteen years in the making, this superbly researched, beautifully written masterpiece weaves together a great many threads of cultural history into a whole understanding of both Cage as an artist and Zen as a lens on existence.
In 1865, Mark Twain did something unexpected — he penned a children’s story, in which he challenged kids to digest the intelligent humor that was, and still is, known for among his adult audiences. Nearly a century and a half later, beloved Russian children’s artist Vladimir Radunsky and Brooklyn independent publisher Enchanted Lion are bringing Advice to Little Girls to life, imagined in the style of the scrapbooks and small albums that children of Twain’s time used for doodling(乱涂乱画) and collecting various curious things.
46. The passage is mainly intended as _______.
A. an advertisement of the books |
B. a brief introduction of some best-sellers |
C. a recommendation of bookstores |
D. an introduction of some well-known writers |
47. Which book helps with charity (an organization for helping people in need)?
A. ADVICE TO LITTLE GIRLS
C. WHERE THE HEART BEATS
48. Books _______ have been based on children.
A. |
B. |
C. |
D. 3 & 4 |
49. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Both WHERE THE HEART BEATS and TINY BEAUTIFUL THINGS deal about Philosophy.
B. ADVICE TO LITTLE GIRLS is used by children for doodling(乱涂乱画) and collecting various curious things.
C. Reading the book of BIG QUESTIONS FROM LITTLE PEOPLE will benefit parents.
D. Mark Twain was once worried that it was difficult for young children to understand the humor in ADVICE TO LITTLE GIRLS.
C
Six people have kept themselves inside a white dome in Hawaii to have an eight-month test of how their mental health might experience during a mission to Mars.
The NASA-funded project involves three men and three women who have no access to fresh food and limited access to Internet that requires 20-minute intervals between click and response, as it might be in deep space.
They are allowed to step outside their igloo-like enclosure — which measures 11 meters in diameter and six meters tall — only if wearing a space suit.
NASA is spending $1.2 million on a series of three such projects known as Hawaii Space Exploration Analog and Simulation (HI-SEAS) to determine the potential risks of sending people together to spend long periods on a distant planet.
NASA is aiming for a human mission to Mars by the 2030s, but experts are still not sure if humans can with-stand the radiation that the journey would involve.
It could take eight months to reach the Red Planet, not to mention time spent on it with a thin atmosphere and no known food source, followed by an attempt at returning to Earth.
One recent study found that with the current limits of technology, adventurers to Mars would start dying in 68 days. Another study this week said the risk of radiation-induced cancer would limit any trip to one year.
NASA considers it just as important to study whether people’s mental states could hold up under the pressure of a Mars journey, said principal investigator Kim Binsted.
Both crew psychology and radiation are considered “red risks”
for Mars, “which means essentially, until we solve these problems,
we are not going,” Binsted told AFP.
They include Allen Mirkadyrov, an aerospace engineer for
NASA and
Neil Scheibelhut, a microbiologist and former soldier in
Iraq.
As time wears on, experts want to see how they get along with each other, and how they relate to mission control.
One potential problem may come late in the game, when a
depression known as “third-quarter syndrome” kicks in. There is
also the issue of communication breakdown between the crew and
ground control, which happens often in these kinds of missions,
Binsted said.
50. “ A white dome” in Paragraph 1 is the same place as _______.
A. “deep space” in paragraph 2
B. “their igloo-like enclosure” in Paragraph 3
C. “the slopes of Mauna Loa” in Paragraph 4
D. “Purdue University’s School of Industrial Engineering” in Paragraph 4
51. What is the aim of Hawaii Space Exploration Analog and Simulation (HI-SEAS)?
A. To reduce the time to reach Mars to less than 8 months.
B. To make sure if humans can with-stand the radiation involved in the journey.
C. To find out the possible risks of having people travel to Mars and stay there.
D. To aim for a human mission to Mars by the 2030s.
52. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
A. it is likely to take a year for adventurers to have a to-and-back trip of Mars
B. most adventurers-to-be are healthy, educated people in their 20s and 30s, each with a keen interest in science and space
C. If possible, the crew will have a Canadian-born man-commander, Martha Lenio
D. Should the “red risks” not be solved, NASA would never try the exploration of Mars
53. Why do you think has the laboratory been located in Hawaii?
A. Because NASA lies there.
B. Because most of the scientists are living there.
C. Because it has similar geology conditions to that of Mars.
D. Because it is the center of HI-SEAS.
54. The passage is intended _______.
A. for informing us of a new research project
B. as an introduction of some great adventurers
C. for informing us of the exploration of Mars
D. as a report of the latest space voyage
D
The first half-time of the football match was full of excitement. The two teams, Vernon Park looked worried and Steelhouse were talking excitedly. It was 1-1,but Steelhouse were on their way. They had Del, who got a goal.
The second half started with Del playing back in defence. Del drifted back, back and back. This meant that Del was there to stop Vernon Park scoring. But Steelhouse didn’t score either.
Now, there was ten minutes left of the game. Something had to happen. Then a Vernon defender kicked a high ball downfield. The ball skidded off a Steelhouse knee.
Corner!
“Back, lads!” yelled Harry. “Five minutes left! Get ready for the corner.”
Del got into position and glanced up again, No Dad!
The kick was taken just as Del’s Dad walked to the edge of the field. The ball came hard and low across the goal mouth.
It hit the side of someone’s heel and jumped up to Del’s hand.
PENALTY!!!!!!!!!!! The ref was pointing at the penalty spot and the whole field were shouting.
“YOU DUCK EGG, DEL!” Cropper was face to face with him. He looked ready to hit him.
“It hit me—right? I’m not superman!” said Del as he walked away with his back to everyone.
“Give me strength!!” roared Harry.
In went the penalty. 2-1 to Vernon Park.
“Five more minutes”, thought Del, as he got back to the center, “Then it’s over, no more football for me.” Just then his Dad came over and patted Del on the shoulder. “ Don’t worry, son. Never mind…. It wasn’t your fault. Show them what you can do!”
As Del walked back to the middle, the eyes of all his teammates arrowed into him. He could almost felt their angry thoughts. This was why he wasn’t going to play again. Ever.
Then as he came up to the center circle, Spanner ran over to him. Poor Spanner! There’d no winner’s medal for him today after all. But he wasn’t angry with Del. “It wasn’t your fault, Del!” he said loyally. “You’ll show them, won’t you? Look, their keeper is off his line again!” Del took a look. Spanner was right. The Vernon keeper had run out cheering when they scored the penalty. He was still way out, joking with the defender—the idiot!
Now, with three minutes remaining, there was no time for skills or tricks like before.
The
laughter of the crowd got around in Del’s head. Suddenly, he was
angry. Yes, he’d show them.
“Touch it to me, Span!” he said. Spanner kicked off. Del took the ball and he was away. Five steps inside the Vernon half, he smashed the ball over the keeper’s head…. …and into the back of the net! 2-2!
The teams kicked off again. And before the Vernon team had finished arguing, Spanner sent Del his first straight pass of the evening. With the ball under perfect control, Del turned left and then right, past four defenders. Then he fooled the goal-keeper into diving the wrong way and ran neatly past him. Del could easily have put the ball into the open net. But he didn’t, he stopped. The defenders of the other team, Vernon Park, all ran at Del, desperately. Spanner was charging up alone on the other side like a mad horse. Del carefully side-footed the ball right across the face of the goal. Spanner couldn’t miss from less than a meter out.
The stadium exploded with yells of disbelief. Spanner was surrounded and followed by the excited Steelhouse team as he ran around the pitch waving his arms and shouting.
The last minute crawled round as Del took the ball and kept it under his control until the whistle went. 3-2 to Steelhouse.
The whole Steelhouse team went mad, cheering and shouting. Del stood in the center circle, his heart thundering with excitement. This is special, he thought.
55. Which of the following statements is true about penalty ?
A.
You will get a penalty if you touch the ball with your
hand.
B. When you get a penalty, it means that you get a corner.
C.
If you get a penalty, the whole football court will be
angry.
D. You will often get a penalty at the end of a football game.
56. We can learn from the story that _______.

B. It was Del’s fault that Steelhouse got a penalty
C. When it was 2-1 to Vernon, Del was not worried at all

57. Del decided to “show them what I can do” because (of) _______.

第二节:下面文章中有5个段落需要添加小标题(第61~65题)。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出适合各段落的小标题,并在答题卡上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。
B. Create No-Phone Time Zones
C. First healthy routine of your day
D. Don’t Lose Sleep Over It
E. Turn your Phone Off When You Get Into The Car
F. Beat your iPhone addiction
An addiction is when the thing you are addicted to begins to control your life and interferes with your daily activities, work, and relationships. If you find yourself checking your phone first thing in the morning—before even getting out of bed, you may be addicted. If you find you’re text-messaging while driving, or checking your phone instead of working on an important assignment,—your phone is interfering with your life and you are addicted. Here are five tips to manage your phone addiction.
61._______________
If you find yourself waking up in the morning reaching to check in with your phone before you even get out of bed, this is a serious problem. The first 30 minutes upon awakening should be dedicated to creating a good start to your day. This means getting out of bed, freshening up, taking 5 minutes to meditate, enjoying looking through the newspaper, stretching your body and preparing a healthy breakfast. Start your day doing healthy, positive things to build your inner fortitude to take on the day ahead.
62. _______________
The truth of the matter is that having a cell phone close by at work is common, and sometimes even required. Whether the doing of your phone is work-related or not—that specific phone alert is rarely related to the current work at hand. If you are constantly getting distracted by your phone going off—you won’t remain focused on the work in front of you, decreasing productivity. Therefore, I advocate this, which means that for at least 2 hours of your day(when you’re most productive work happens) you close off your phone and stay completely devoted to the work in front of you.
63. _______________
This should be a law. I’m waiting for the day that it is. Just as in an aircraft you are asked to power off your electronic devices and cell phones, this should be the law of the road. It is impossible for your mind to be at two places at once. It is a law of physics: no one thing can occupy the same space at the same time, and if your mind and eyes are on your phone, they are not on the road. Driving is one of those places where you do not want to mess around. What did people do five years ago? They would carefully map out their route before they left the house, or they would pull off to the side of the road as they looked at a map. The same rule should apply today.
64. _______________
When you are with a real life person sharing a conversation, a meal, or a cup of coffee, they are a real life form. A real person right there in front of you to engage with. Are you telling me that your virtual friends and virtual text conversations are more important than the real life person in front of you? Not only is this THE rudest thing on the planet, but it breaks down friendships and can ruin relationships. Even if you say to a friend “Oh I just need to check that,” What you are saying is that the virtual message is more important than them. They have taken time out of their busy life to meet with you, and share real life time with you!
65. _______________
If you find yourself up late at night playing on your phone, whether it is video games, Facebook, or text messaging, you are losing precious sleep over your addiction. The moment you stop putting energy into caring for your basic needs and pour your time and energy into your phone, you are allowing the phone to dictate your health and well-being. If you catch yourself in this scenario, my advice is to power off your phone an hour before bed time to ensure that your last hour is spent in a meaningful way, and that you get to bed on time to start the next day afresh.

Today, let’s say something about indoor rock-climbing, that is one of the UK’s fastest growing sport. More and more people are enjoying them all over the country. The indoor rock-climbing can be a great way to discover whether you have a mind for height. Whatever you had been told, size and strength aren’t such important as a good sense of balance. Man-made climbing walls have footholds with different sizes and shapes. Climbers work in pairs. When one person climbs up, other one stays on the ground, given out the rope. You are taught to move your hands and feet correctly, but how to rest and keep balance. Once when you have mastered all the basic moves, you can go for longer climbing than before.
