14.I was on a plane that was about to take off when my phone rang.It was my neighbor saying I needed to get to the hospital,for my wife Mary (61)was taken/had been taken (take) to hospital,and when I arrived doctors were trying to make(62)her(she) come back to consciousness,but it was no good.
I explained to my(63)children(child) that Mummy had died.Within hours they were running around the garden,(64)chatting (chat) with their granddad while I was in a deep sorrow.I went through the motions of being a dad---cooking,cleaning,washing-but inside I felt hollow.One of the hardest things(65)to cope (cope) with was that the boys had lost their mother.Mary and I were everyone's favorite couple.The physical loss of not having her around was(66)extremely (extreme) painful.For a year,I was in the(67)depth/depths (deep) of misery.Then I decided that we had to get through this.I began to late Emma,(68)whohad been a childhood friend,and Mickey couldn't wait for us to get married so he could call her Mum.It wasn't long before George warmed to her,too---she is wonderful with them.Two years later we got married and life started to look rosy.Emma and I have had two boys to add(69)toour family.

12.最近一段时间,共享单车在城市的大街小巷随处可见,它给人们带来便利的同时,各种问题及不文明现象也随之而来.请你根据所见所闻,说说自己的看法并提出建议,以"Bike Sharing"为题写一篇英语短文.
注意:
1.词数100左右;
2.可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯.
Nowadays bike sharing is increasingly popular in some cities as it provides an effective solution to the"last mile"problem to schools or to workplaces.It is not only a greener method of transportation but also provides a user-friendly experience.However,the new form has also led to problems such as arbitrary parking,deliberate destruction and theft.
I think the bike-sharing service companies have faced a challenge to improve the offline business management to meet the demand of the users.More importantly,every user has responsibility to obey the rules to make the bike-sharing develop in a more standard way.All in all,I hope the new win-win trend could have a bright future..

19.We all face quantities of stresses in day-to-day living,whether at work,in the home,or anywhere in between. (31)G Here's how stress can help us on an everyday basis.
•Sharpening your memory.
Did you ever notice that sometimes when you are stressed,your memory seems to improve?Remember that test you passed where the answers seemed to come out of nowhere?(32)D It's because of stress hormones that increase your alertness when it's most needed.
•(33)A
Successful employees turn stress into motivation.Have you ever noticed that you get the least amount of work done when you have the fewest deadlines?Too little stress can affect how much you actually get done.When you take risks and choose to get over the difficulty,it improves your mental toughness and self-confidence.
•Helping you resist the attack of illness.
 (34)E Believe it or not,the right kind of stress can help your body's defenses against illness.When you get sick,stress causes you to make hormones that battle threats to your health.That burst of stress is helpful to your immune system when your body faces a threat.
•Making Your Life More Interesting.
Think about some stressful situations that we consciously put ourselves in to make life more interesting and enjoyable,like asking someone out on a first date,conquering a known fear,or learning something new.These may not immediately come to mind when you think of stress because of the positive outcomes. (35)F

A.Helping you get an advantage at work.
B.Helping you get through difficult times.
C.This will happen whenever you are stressed.
D.That's one way your brain responds to stress.
E.You need a healthy immune system to help fight off diseases.
F.But they're the types that can help you achieve fulfillment and happiness.
G.But handled properly,stress can have many benefits for the body and mind.

9.Brain-training software may be a waste of time.People who played"mind-boosting"games made the same modest cognitive gains as those who spent a similar amount of time surfing the web."It didn't really make any difference what people did,"says Adrian Owen of the Medical Research Council Cognition,who tested brain-training software on volunteers recruited through a BBC television program.
Owen and his colleagues asked 11,000 volunteers to take tests to measure their reasoning ability and verbal and spatial(空间的)memory.Participants then spent six weeks playing on one of two computer programs,or just surfing the web for pleasure.In one program,which imitates commercial brain-training software,the volunteers solved simple mathematics problems and puzzles that tested their memories.The other was designed specifically to boost cognitive abilities such as reasoning and planning.
After six weeks,the participants underwent a second round of cognitive tests.Both groups who played the games made modest improvements,yet so did the web surfers.Skills learned via the programs didn't transfer to the cognitive tests,even when they relied on similar abilities,says Owen.For instance,people who played a game in which they had to find a match for a briefly overturned card struggled at a similar test that used stars"hidden"in boxes,"Even when the tests were conceptually quite similar we didn't see any improvement,"says Owen.He concludes that brain-training software only makes people better at the specific tasks they have been practicing.
Yet Klingberg,who founded a cognitive-training firm called Cogmed,is indignant at the conclusion that all brain training is bunk.The participants in Owen's study didn't practice for long enough and there was no quality control over what practice people did,he says."Asking subjects to sit at home and do tests online,perhaps with the TV on or other distractions around,is likely to result in noisy data,"he says."This paper does in no way disprove that the brain is plastic or that cognitive functions can be improved by training."Owen counters that his team's research took place in settings similar to the ones people are likely to practice in."This is what people are doing.They're sitting at home on their computers doing brain training."

32.The purpose of Owen recruiting volunteers to do the first round of tests isA.
A.test their reasoning ability and verbal and spatial memory
B.support the BBC television program in his way
C.prove how much information participants can remember
D.detect differences among people in memorizing information
33.From the second round of cognitive tests,Owen concludes thatD.
A.all participants have made much recognizable improvement dramatically
B.participants have developed reasoning ability to solve complicated problems
C.participants can make greater improvement in solving very similar problems
D.participants performed better in certain tasks they have practiced for a long time
34.What's the meaning of"indignant"?C
A.Surprised.
B.Agreeable.
C.Mad.
D.Dishonest.
35.What is the passage mainly about?A
A.There is a debate about whether brain-training software is effective.
B.We should concentrate on brain-training software in our daily life.
C.Brain-training software is useless to most people.
D.It is important to improve reasoning ability and spatial memory.

16.Several recent studies have found that being randomly (随机地) assigned to a roommate of another race can lead to increased tolerance but also to a greater likelihood (可能性) of conflict.
Recent reports found that lodging with a student of a different race may decrease prejudice and compel students to engage in more ethnically diverse friendships.
An Ohio State University study also found that black students living with a white roommate saw higher academic success throughout their college careers.Researchers believe this may be caused by social pressure.
In a New York Times article,Sam Roakye-the only black student on his freshman year floor-said that"if you're surrounded by whites,you have something to prove."
Researchers also observed problems resulting from pairing interracial students in residences.
According to two recent studies,randomly assigned roommates of different race are more likely to experience conflicts so strained that one roommate will move out.
An Indiana University study found that interracial roommates were three times as likely as two white roommates to no longer live together by the end of the semester.
Grace Kao,a professor at Penn said she was not surprised by the findings."This may be the first time that some of these students have interacted,and lived,with someone of a different race,"she said.
At Penn,students are not asked to indicate race when applying for housing.
"One of the great things about freshman housing is that,with some exceptions,the process throws you together randomly,"said Undergraduate Assembly chairman Alec Webley."This is the definition of integration."
"I've experienced roommate conflicts between interracial students that have both broken down stereotypes and reinforced stereotypes,"said one Penn resident advisor (RA).The RA of two years added that while some conflicts"provided more multicultural acceptance and melding (融合),"there were also"jarring cultural confrontations."
The RA said that these conflicts have also occurred among roommates of the same race.
Kao said she cautions against forming any generalizations based on any one of the studies,noting that more background characteristics of the students need to be studies and explained.

62.What can we learn from some recent studies?D
A.Conflicts between studies of different races are unavoidable.
B.Students of different races are prejudiced against each other.
C.Interracial lodging does more harm than good.
D.Interracial lodging may have diverse outcomes.
63.What does Sam Boakye's remark mean?D
A.White students tend to look down upon their black peers.
B.Black students can compete with their white peers academically.
C.lack students feel somewhat embarrassed among white peers during the freshman year.
D.Being surrounded by white peers motivates a black student to work harder to succeed.
64.What does the Indians Univerisity study show?A
A.Interracial roommates are more likely to fall out.
B.Few white students like sharing a room with a black peer.
C.Roommates of different races just don't get along.
D.Assigning students'lodging randomly is not a good policy.
65.What does Grace Kao say about interracial lodging?A
A.It is unscientific to make generalizations about it without further study.
B.Schools should be cautious when making decisions about student lodging.
C.Students'racial background should be considered before lodging is assigned.
D.Experienced resident advisors should be assigned to handle the problems.

9.Once,when I was a teenager,my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus.Finally,there was only one family between us and the ticket counter.
This family made a big impression on me.There were eight children,all probably under the age of twelve.You could tell they didn't have a lot of money.
Their clothes were not expensive,but they were clean.The children were well-behaved,all of them standing in line,two-by-two behind their parents,holding hands.They were excitedly talking about the clowns,elephants,and other acts they would see that night with their brothers or sisters in a low voice.
One could sense they had never been to the circus before.It promised to be highlight of their young lives.The father and mother were at the head of the pack,standing proud as could be.The mother was holding her husband's hand,looking up at him as if to say,"You are my knight in shining armor."
He was smiling and responding in pride,looking back at her as if to say,"You got that right."The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted.He proudly responded,"Please let me buy eight children's tickets and two adult tickets so I can take my family to the circus."
The ticket lady gave the price.The man's wife let go of his hand,her head dropped,and his lips began to shake.The father leaned a little closer and asked,"How much did you say?"
The ticket lady again quoted the price.The man didn't have enough money.
How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight children that he didn't have enough money to take them to the circus?
Actually we were not wealthy in any sense.So I understand how the kids would feel.I felt sorry for them.

Paragraph 1
Seeing what was going on,my dad put his hand in his pocket,pulled out a﹩20 bill and dropped it on the ground.Then he picked it op and tapped the man on the shoulder and said,"Excuse me,sir,this fell out of your pocket.'The man turned around and saw the money.He knew what was going on,he looked straight into my dad's eyes,took my dad's hand in both of his,squeezed tightly onto the $20 bill,and with his lip shaking and a tear running down his cheek,he replied,"Thank you,thank you,sir.This really means a lot to me and my family."
Paragraph 2
That day my father and I went back to our car and drove home without any tickets.We didn't go to the circus that night,when I asked dad why he did so,Dad said,"My child,it was a desperate,heartbreaking and embarrassing situation for a father.Surely he wasn't begging for a handout,but he reminded me of my father,when I was young."He paused for a while,as if wandering in his memory."We should appreciate what we have obtained from life and seize every opportunity to help others.We didn't go to the circus tonight,but we didn't go without.Now,who wants an ice cream?".

10.请阅读下面短文,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章.请阅读下面短文,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章.
Our school gets wired
"By next term our school will have Wifi all over,"the teacher announced.We cheered with joy and applause.
Last semester my school embraced (引入) the Internet.We hand in our compositions online so that we can share our ideas and learn from each other.Presenting work over the Net has become quite popular.
However,many parents are worried about students'overusing the Internet on campus.After all,many of us are still deeply immersed (沉浸) in"F5"the Renren.com in class.Some are afraid to miss the latest news; some just want to jump on the bandwagon (潮流).
To make sure students use the Internet properly,we will be given an account to log onto the Internet.Our online activities will also be monitored by the school.These measures will be effective and helpful to those who lack self-control.
Whether we have noticed or not,the Internet plays an important role in our lives.But we students need to be self-disciplined (自律的) so we can make full use of modern technology.
Opponents of WiFi in schools would have you believe that there is nothing lost by banning WiFi in schools and that the alternative to enable internet access in schools is wired internet connections.While this may sound like a reasonable compromise,it is a major step backwards for our education system.
WiFi restrictions reduce and,in some cases,eliminate access for our children to the largest educational resource ever created-the internet.It imposes limits on the types of tools our teachers can use,and negatively impacts the education of our children.
写作内容 
1.用约30个单词写出上文概要;
2.用约120个单词阐述你对wifi进校园的看法,并用2~3个理由或论据支撑你的看法.
【写作要求】
1.写作过程中不能直接引用原文语句;
2.作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称;
3.不必写标题.【评分标准】内容完整,语言规范,语篇连贯,词数适当.
Today,more and more schools provide Wi-Fi coverage for their students,which is popular with some students,as it is beneficial to their study,but some tend to take the"Against"side.
There is no denying middle school campuses should be covered with Wi-Fi,which will promote the development of web-based education.With the aid of Wi-Fi,teachers would be able to create more interesting and vivid classes and increase their interactions with students.In this way,their teaching would become more effective and students'interest in learning would be aroused.Meanwhile,it would also be helpful for students to develop their independence and creativity.In addition,it would be more convenient for students to surf the internet to acquire the necessary knowledge for their own learning.
Of c ourse,to make sure the internet connection had a positive influence on students'studying,the school could work out technical tools to guide them..
