【题目】A British businessman with the lifelong dream of building a yacht (游艇) has almost achieved his goal. Mike Ludgrove is putting the finishing touches on the 60ft boat that he has spent the past 12 years crafting by hand. He has spent several thousands of hours on the classic sailing yacht that he has named “Helena”.
Ludgrove originally thought that he could complete his dream yacht in just three years. He soon realized, however, that both the timeline and budget were overly ambitious. To raise more funds, Ludgrove and his kind wife Elaine sold their London flat, their primary home in Exeter, Devon, and now live in a rented house. Five years ago, the couple sold their food business to raise additional money for the boat. Ludgrove also asked his son and some friends to work alongside him to make his dream a reality.
“Helena has been my dream for almost 40 years,” Ludgrove, who started working on the project in 2006, told the Daily Mail. “It has taken 12 years, and I have enjoyed most of it, although there have been some low points when I’ve wondered whether we were going to make it.
The boat is coated with fiberglass to protect the wood and has a captain’s room and two large cabins which can accommodate up to six people.
Ludgrove claims that his dream was inspired by a childhood experience when he participated in the London Sailing Project, a charitable foundation that gives young people the opportunity to experience a sailing adventure. “Helena” is due to launch, and Ludgrove hopes it will benefit young people who usually don’t have a chance to sail.
【1】What does the underlined sentence in Para. 2 mean?
A. Building a yacht was impossible for Ludgrove.
B. It was wrong of Ludgrove to build a yacht by hand.
C. Ludgrove was trapped in a lack of time and money.
D. The problems of timeline and budget were easy to solve.
【2】What are the attitudes of Ludgrove’s family and friends to his yacht-building plan?
A. Indifferent. B. Doubtful.
C. Objective. D. Supportive.
【3】Why was Ludgrove determined to build a yacht?
A. It was his childhood dream.
B. It was part of his worldwide sailing plan.
C. He never sailed in the sea.
D. He wanted to memorize “Helena”.
【4】What will Ludgrove do with “Helena” most probably?
A. Give it to the London Sailing Project for renting.
B. Inspire young people to have a chance to sail.
C. Set up a charitable foundation for “Helena”.
D. Sail around the world with his family and friends.

【题目】 The United States Capitol Dome in Washington, D.C., is recognized around the world as a symbol of the U.S. government. Since last November, the dome has been surrounded by metal poles, or scaffolding(脚手架), and heavy cloth as part of a repair project.
The last major repair work on the U.S. Capitol took place in 1960. Since then, the dome has become weathered and worn. The Architect of the Capitol group reports the dome has more than 1,000 narrow breaks in its surface and other damage.
The dome was completed around 1863. U.S. Senate Historian Don Ritchie says the dome’s cast iron frame(铸铁钢架) is at special risk of weathering. “The capitol dome, being cast iron, has been hit by lightning countless times. And so the present construction(=building) is to repair the leaks, to fill in the cracks, to take off unnecessary layers of paint.”
Workers are removing old paint. They covered a large part of the building in plastic and a special cloth to protect workers from the wind and other elements. Much of the work is done at night, when lawmakers are not in the building.
Some recent visitors to the Capitol were unhappy about its present appearance. They had hoped to get a picture of the usually shining dome. Joyce said, “It was dramatic, and very fantastic, and all white, but when I come here today, it is under construction so my family cannot see it clearly. It is kind of a disappointment.”
Others were more understanding of the repairs. Rick Jones, another visitor, said, “It’s a little inconvenient for us not to see the dome but you have to think about the future and the people will be coming to this place for centuries...and you know, there just needs to be preventive maintenance(保养). I am not upset with that at all.”
The project is expected to take more than two years to complete. The dome should be ready for the inauguration of a new president in January 2017.
【1】We can learn from the passage that the United States Capitol Dome is ______.
A.worn by exposure to the weather
B.surrounded by many repair projects
C.well kept and in excellent condition
D.regarded as a symbol of the U.K. government
【2】According to Don Ritchie, the present repair work involves ______.
a. stopping the leaks
b. changing the frame
c. removing the old paints
d. replacing the lights e. filling the narrow breaks
A.abcB.bcd
C.bdeD.ace
【3】Which of the following can describe the recent visitors to the Capitol Dome?
A.They could get a clear look at the dome.
B.They were impressed by the white dome’s fantastic beauty.
C.They held different views on the Capitol’s current appearance.
D.They were all disappointed at the sight of the Capitol building.
【4】The underlined word “inauguration” in the last paragraph most probably means _____.
A.tourB.taking office
C.interviewD.taking photos

【题目】 Different people may find that different learning methods work best for them. While some would turn to tutoring in order to get better grades, others choose to join study groups. 【1】
“Two heads are better than one.” That’s the simple idea behind study groups. By participating in a study group, students can benefit from some of their best academic resources: other students. They get to pick each other’s brains and improve their own understanding of different problems. 【2】. For example, some students tend to procrastinate （拖延） when they are studying by themselves; however, by joining a study group, they get to observe their peers who are working diligently and are likely to thus have motivation for working harder.
【3】. And it’s necessary to make sure everyone has the same goal, to prepare for a particular test, to discuss class readings or to review the week’s lecture notes. Besides, socializing in the group would make studying more fun as long as it took up only a small portion of group study time.
In addition, to maximize the efficiency, some study groups like to assign members certain roles, and thus efficiency will be promoted. Besides an organizer, who gets group members to agree to a common purpose and a convenient time and place, there often is a group member playing the role of a source-seeker, whose duty is to remind group members to identify their sources. 【4】 This person reminds the group that it’s important to know who said what and where it was said. And a gatekeeper, who tries to make sure that all group members are participating, may ask a direct question to help a shy person participate, or find a way to get a dominating member to listen.
A. Study groups work best when they are small, but not too small-four to five participants is about right.
B. Both learning methods have advantages as well as disadvantages.
C. In fact, many universities encourage their students to form study groups and make good use of them.
D. For instance, when a group member says “I read somewhere that …,” the source-seeker should ask for specifics.
E. Moreover, study groups can create the slightly tense atmosphere in which it’s good to study.
F. It’s vital to make each group member understand his or her own role.

【题目】If you are like most international students, you are probably pretty comfortable reading and writing in English. 【1】 Below are some tips to help you to improve your conversational skills.
Make friends with American students. Many international students end up making friends with a lot of—or only—other international students. 【2】 Hanging out with natives not only naturally pushes you to improve your spoken English, but also helps you pick up cultural and social information.
Learn from American friends. Tell your American friends that you are trying to improve your listening and speaking skills, and would like them to help you. If you pronounce a word incorrectly, or misuse an idiom, you ask them to guide you. 【3】
Increase your knowledge. 【4】 If you have been exposed to topics that are likely to be discussed in conversation, you have a much better chance of understanding people when they talk, and of being able to express yourself well.
【5】 If you have to explain something to someone, you have a strong motivation to pronounce everything as well as you can, and find other ways to explain yourself. Finally, this becomes a good habit. Many people have asked me how I learned to speak English fluently, and I owe most of it to my years of being a math teacher in college for years.
A. It is bad for them to do that.
B. You will make progress this way.
C. If possible, become a teacher at your school.
D. It's a win-win opportunity for international students.
E. Keep up with news and watch popular shows and movies.
F. Explaining everything in a different way counts.
G. You may have trouble in listening and speaking in the language, however.
