As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped. He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains(锁链)， no cages. It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not. He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t try to get away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they still believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free.” How could it be? These animals could at any time break free from their ropes. But because they always stuck right where they were, they believed they couldn’t. Just like the elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something, just because we failed at it once before? We should never give up the struggle(挣扎) in life. ( ) 48. Why do the elephants never try up to break free from the ropes? A. Because they think they can not. B. Because they are too old to do it. C. Because they like their living places. D. Because they get on well with the trainer. ( )49. How did the man feel after he heard what the trainer said? A. Moved B. Surprised C. Angry D. Nervous ( )50. What can we learn from this passage? A. Failing is part of learning. B. We should be different from others. C. Helping animals is helping ourselves. D. Traveling always makes people relaxed (C) Do you know why different animals or pests have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves. Some birds like eating locusts(蚱蜢)，but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night. If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colours is protecting themselves. bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the tree. Have you ever noticed an even more strange act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid(液体) when it faces danger. While the liquid spread over, the enemies cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it isn’t strong at all. ( )51. How can pests with different colours from plants keep out of danger? A. They run away quickly. B. Their colours are much like their enemies. C. They hide themselves in the day and appear at night. D. They have to move quietly. ( )52. The kind of fish can live up to now because . A. it is very big and strong B. the liquid it sends out can help it escape (逃脱) from its enemies C. the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies D. it swims faster than any other fish ( )53. Which is the best title for this passage? A. The Change of Colours for Animals and Pests. B. Colours of Different Animals and Pests. C. The Main Use of Colours for Animals and Pests. D. Some Animals and Pests. D Even in early time, people could realize the importance of dreams and knew that dreams gave meaning to life. Every great achievement has been the result of years of dreaming. If a person has a dream and holds fast to it, he or she will find a way to bring it into reality (现实). Children do not have much experience or knowledge. However, they are natural dreamers. We should not laugh at them for being naive. Many great men were dreamers when they were children. One such dreamer was Thomas Edison. He used to be ostracized (排斥) when he was in primary school, but his achievements were greater than everyone else’s in his time. Teenagers and young people should also be encouraged to dream. The world is full of successful teenagers and young people. They dreamt big and their dreams changed their lives and even the world. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates are the good examples. They have developed technology and brought great progress (进步) to human besides making money for themselves. Older people should believe that it is never too late to dream and that human mind is never too old to make dreams turn into reality. Colonel Saunders realized his dreams at the age of 67 and set up the biggest fried chicken company (KFC) in the world. To dream is a wonderful ability which can lead to wonderful results. Olympic records were broken by players who were brave enough to dream. No one is too young or too old to dream and to make dreams come true. ( )54. Young people should be encouraged to dream because ______. A. their dreams are natural B. they are greater than everyone else C. they have much knowledge D. their dreams might change the world ( )55. What does the example of Colonel Saunders show us? A. Setting up a big company is a wonderful ability. B. Developing technology can bring great progress. C. Even older people can make their dreams come true. D. People should be brave enough to dream when they are young. ( )56. The underlined word “naive” in the passage means “______” in Chinese. A. 逆反的              B. 幼稚的            C. 调皮的             D. 冲动的 ( )57. The best title (题目) for the passage is “______”. A. From Dream to Reality                     B. Good Examples of Dreams C. Achievements in History                   D. A list of Successful Dreamers 第二卷（非选择题，共40分） 五、根据所给单词或中文提示在空格内写出其正确形式。（本大题共8分，每小题1分） (A)根据括号中所给的汉语写单词，使句子完整 58 .Your spoken English is so poor, please correct your ___________（发音） 59.

But this is not how chocolate comes to us. In fact, it comes from the cacao tree that is found in the tropical(热带的) forests of Central and South America, because cacao beans need to grow in a hot and humid climate (湿热的气候) . The Mayas knew that they could get food and drink from the tree. The Aztecs often took the cacao beans and broke them into pieces in hot water, making a drink that was delicious and energy-producing for the body. When Columbus and Cortez came to America, they shipped cacao beans back to Spain. However, at first few people accepted the drink because the taste was strange. When Columbus gave the information back to the Spanish Queen and King that one cup of chocolate from the cacao beans could provide a whole day’s energy for a man without the need for other food, attitudes(态度) quickly changed. The need and the cost for chocolate produced by the cacao beans rose sharply. Soon all Europeans had fallen in love with chocolate. But chocolate was so expensive at that time that only the riches could afford this confection (甜食). At first, too much chocolate made people sick because more than half of the cacao bean is formed from fat, and few people knew how to remove the too much fat content(脂肪含量). Perhaps that is how we arrived at the expression, “Too much of a good thing can be bad for you.” Places 80 of chocolate Function Central and South America It comes from the cacao tree in the tropical forests of Central and South America, because a hot and humid climate is 81 for the growth of cacao beans. ①The Mayas got food and drink. ②The Aztecs often made a drink . Spain ①Columbus and Cortez sent cacao beans back to Spain by 82 . ②Chocolate wasn’t widely accepted. One cup of chocolate could provide a whole day’s energy for a man with 83 need of other food. Europe Because of the high price, only the riches could afford this confection. Too much chocolate did harm to people’s 84 because more than half of the cacao bean is formed from fat. 8、 书 关于书的成语关于读书的排比句社区图书漂流公约怎么写关于读书的小报汉书pdf 面 表 关于同志近三年现实表现材料材料类招标技术评分表图表与交易pdf视力表打印pdf用图表说话 pdf 达 （本大题共10分）： 你班上周举行了”影响我最多的人”的主题班会,每位同学各抒己见,李明同学介绍了影响他最多的人是2011年感动中国十大人物之一的”刘伟” 。请根据表中李明同学发言的纪录,以他的口吻用英文写一篇短文。 基本信息 1、刘伟, 北京人, 1987年出生。 2、10岁时,因为事故失去了双臂,但他没有失去信心。 事例 1、他喜欢游泳,14岁时,他获得了全国残疾人游泳竞标赛(the national championship for the disabled)金牌。 2、19岁时,自学钢琴,每天花7个小时用脚练习弹钢琴。 成就和看法 1、通过艰苦的努力,他的梦想在中国达人秀（China’s Got Talent）的舞台上实现了。 2、因此,我认为………。(发挥一到两句) 注意： 1、必须包括所有内容要点，要求语句通顺，意思连贯； 2、第6点必须用1-2句话适当发挥； 3、词数90个左右,文章开头已经给出,不计入总次数。 The Person Who Has Influenced Me Most Liu Wei is the person who has influenced me most. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第一卷（选择题，共70分） 听力材料 第一节（共10小题） 听下面10段短对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有5秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 听第1至10段材料，回答第1至10题。 1.M: Will you travel to Shanghai during the coming holidays, Millie?
