【题目】 A 3-year-old boy who was lost in the woods for two days is now safe at home with his family. But Casey Hathaway told his rescuers that he was not alone in the rainy, freezing cold woods. He said he was with a friend — a bear.
The child went missing on January 22. He was playing with friends at his grandmother’s house in the southern state of North Carolina. When the other children returned home but Casey did not, the family searched the area for almost an hour before calling the police. Police formed a search and rescue team to look for the young boy in the nearby woods. But two days went by and still — no Casey.
Then on January 24, someone called the police saying he heard a child crying in the woods. Police followed up on the information and found Casey at about 9 ：30 that night.

Sheriff Chip Hughes spoke with reporters from several news agencies. He said Casey did not say how he was able to survive in the woods for three days in the cold, rainy weather. However, the sheriff said, “ He did say he had a friend in the woods that was a bear that was with him. ”
Hundreds of people helped in the search and rescue efforts, including some 600 volunteers, federal police and members of the military. Officer Hughes told reporters that at no point did he think Casey had been kidnapped.

【题目】 It may not come as a surprise but the world as a whole is getting richer. Some people have more disposable(可自由支配的)income to spend on luxuries such as holidays, cars, TVs and smart phones. Recent data has shown that the number of people living in extreme poverty has halved in recent decades. So should we celebrate the fact that more of us now have a better standard of living?
Maybe not. While the gap between the rich and the poor in some countries is narrowing, there is still a lot of inequality in other places-some people have a lot of money and opportunities and others don't. A recent report by Oxfam and Credit Suisse revealed how divided many of us are when it comes to wealth. A lot of the money in the world is in the hands of very few people. In fact, 48% of global wealth is owned by the richest l% of the population.
But some countries are attempting to reduce this inequality and make the poor, less poor. According to David Bryer from Oxfam, Brazil has been taking "some really sensible measures--measures around having more progressive tax, around investing in a higher minimum wage and investing in central public services." Having a higher minimum wage can help people eat better and seek a better education. And more people with more money buy more things-and factories can produce more. In turn, a factory which produces more will need more workers. So, more jobs are created.
Other wealthy individuals are doing their bit to help reduce inequality. Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, earned a lot of money from his company but when he retired, he and his wife Melinda, created a foundation to help the poor. He thinks that rich people should, of course, pay their taxes but he also advises that they should all "look at taking their wealth and being philanthropic (乐善好施的 ) , both in their own country and to help the global poorest."
Bill Gates feels that giving money to help poor people is "fulfilling". But if other super-rich people don't want to experience this fulfillment then, according to Oxfam, very soon the wealthiest l% will soon own more money than the rest of the world's population. Do you think that is fair?
【1】The first two paragraphs mainly tell us _________.
A.the poverty and inequality in a richer world
B.some sensible measures to make the 'poor less poor
C.the increase of global wealth in recent decades
D.the narrowing gap between the rich and the poor
【2】What is the government in Brazil doing to the minimum wage?
A.Limiting it.B.Increasing it.
C.Making it lower.D.Setting it free.
【3】What do Bill and Melinda Gates think very rich people should do with some of their money?
A.Spend it on their luxuries.B.Give it to help the poor.
C.Invest it in their business.D.Hand it over to their children.

【题目】阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Lai Shixiong, 68, president of the Ivy League Analytical English magazine based in Taiwan, believes that constant practice and hard work are the keys to mastering English。
Like many non-native speakers, Lai failed when he started learning English. When he was in high school, he once got the unbelievably low mark of seven out of 100 in an English test. He almost gave up on English, but then he graduated from high school and enrolled(入学 )in a military(军队的) school, where he met a classmate who was very good at English.
Amazed by his classmate’s American accent, Lai decided to start learning English from the very beginning. To correct his pronunciation, Lai practiced phonetic symbols(音标) hundreds of times everyday using vinyl records(黑胶唱片).
Now that he was able to pronounce words, he began to practice dialogues. “I just talked to myself as if I were in a dialogue," he said.“I was basically talking to the air.”
However, talking to himself also meant that Lai wouldn’t be able to hear English expressions from others. That was when dictionaries came to his rescue. Unlike many who just look up vocabulary and pronunciations, Lai looked at details—definitions, usages and example sentences. “By checking every single part of the entry(词条), you learn not only the vocabulary itself, but plenty of useful small words,” Lai said.
Reading and listening to English news is another good way to keep abreast of(了解……的最新进展) new expressions. “The English news can teach us how to describe new things in our daily lives,” Lai said.
When he found it easy enough to speak English, Lai thought of two ways to improve his skills. He used English to describe everything he saw. He even translated speeches when he went to class meetings at the military school. “There is no shortcut to mastering a language. You have to practice,” Lai said. After all, Rome wasn’t built in a day.

【题目】 One of the biggest enemies of smartphone batteries is the phones ’ screens. The screens keep getting bigger, and they need to keep bright for outdoor use. 【1】 But, a new OLED technology can increase brightness and energy efficiency ( 效率). The technology is being developed by a team at the Imperial College London. They’re using a special development process to produce OLEDs that give off polarized light (偏振光).
So, what's that all meaning? Screens often include filters (滤光器) to help reduce unpleasant bright light from outside. 【2】 However, they also can prevent lots of the light from the screen itself. Any light that doesn’t make it to your eyes is basically wasted energy. By creating OLEDs that send out polarized light, the team can get the light from the OLEDs to pass through a polarized filter while light from outside will still get filtered by it.
For now, the technology doesn’t mean much for phones we have in our hands. Since it's still being researched, it's not likely to find its way for upcoming phones very soon. 【3】
When it does, it would result in brighter screens and improved energy efficiency. Screens would not use the same amount of energy to produce bright light because none of it would be filtered out. 【4】
And, that would mean much longer-lasting batteries for smartphones.
【5】 For example, smartwatches don't pack large batteries, so any efficiency improvement would have a strong benefit.
A.That means they will use more energy.
B.Plenty of phones already get a full day of life.
C.This technology can be used in other areas as well.
D.But it would finally be applied to consumers’ phones.
E.It can give OLED screens a huge step forward in competition.
F.The new technology can almost double the efficiency of screens.
G.These make it easier to see the light coming from your phone's screen.

【题目】If he’d survived his sudden illness in 1990, Jim Henson might be turning 79 years old on September 24, 2015. He would probably still be at work. We can only guess where his imagination would have taken him — and us — in the 25 years we missed. There’s no doubt that he would have broken new ground, for Henson was a neverstopping innovator (创新者)．
His long career began far back in 1955, when he created Sam and Friends for a Washington D．C. television station. The programmes were just five minutes long and scheduled in the noman’sland between afternoon and evening programming. Yet the show won an Emmy for best local entertainment programme in 1958.
When it ended in 1961, Henson struggled to find work. He could only get brief appearances on other programmes like The Tonight Show and Saturday Night Live. Only in 1976 did a British producer finally give Henson the green light to start a fullscale television show. The Muppet Show was produced and broadcast in Great Britain before finally arriving on prime time (黄金时间) US television. The network continued to identify it as a children’s programme, though the programme won a wide following of adult viewers.
One reason for its appeal to grownups was the obvious skill in catching the imagination. Henson’s talent was so great that it’s difficult to think of Kermit or Miss Piggy as nothing more than piles of cloth when they aren’t being operated. But Henson himself never forgot how much work went into creating his characters.
Way back in his early days, Henson created Kermit the Frog. His body was made from a green coat his mother had thrown away and his eyes were two halves of a pingpong ball. Over the years, his shape became more expressive. “Kermit is the character through whose eyes the audience is viewing the show. He’s a nice guy，” Henson said.
【1】Which of the following programmes marked the start of Jim Henson’s career?
A. The Tonight Show. B. Sam and Friends.
C. Saturday Night Live. D. The Muppet Show.
【2】It can be inferred from the passage that Miss Piggy was ________.
A. a character Jim Henson created
B. Jim Henson’s close friend
C. a television programme
D. Kermit’s girlfriend
【3】From the passage, we can infer that ________.
A. it was easy for Jim to create his characters
B. Jim Henson died of illness at the age of 54
C. the Muppet Show was broadcast in the US first
D. the programme Sam and Friends was not popular locally

【题目】（题文）Four Goals for Perfect Life
Healthy and Fit
The first goal common to all of us is health and energy. （小题1）Today, with the incredible advances in medical science, the quality of our health and fitness, and our lifespan(寿命), is largely determined by design, not by chance. People with excellent health habits are far healthier, have more energy, and live longer and better than people who have poor health habits.
Excellent Relationships
（小题2）Fully 85% of your happiness will be determined by the quality of your relationships at each stage, and in each area, of your life. How well you get along with people, and how much they like, love and respect you, has more impact on the quality of your life than perhaps any other factor.
Do What You Love
The third common goal is to do work that we enjoy, to do it well, and to be well paid for it. （小题3）You want to earn the very most that is possible for you at each stage of your career, whatever you do.
（小题4）
The fourth goal we all have in common is to achieve financial independence. （小题5）You want to be completely free of financial worries. You want to be able to order dinner in a restaurant without using the price listings to determine what you want to eat.
A．You don’t want to get the job.
B．Achieve Financial Independence
C．Money is the most important.
D．You want to reach the point in life where you have enough money so that you never have to worry about money again.
E．You want to be able to get and keep the job you want, to get paid more and promoted faster.
F．The second goal that we all have in common is to enjoy excellent relationships — intimate, personal or social — with the people we like and respect, and who like, love and respect us in turn.
G．We all want to be healthy and fit, to have high levels of energy and to live free of pain and illness.

【题目】I was interested in reading a newspaper article about a new concept in old people’s homes in France. The idea is simple, but revolutionarycombining a residential home for the elderly with a nursery school in the same building.
【1】 In the afternoon, the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the children, and if a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always a kind lap to sit on and a cuddle (拥抱). There are trips out and birthday parties too.
【2】The children are happy because they get a lot more individual attention, and respond well because someone has time for them. They see illness and death and learn to accept them. The residents are happy because they feel useful and needed. They are more active and more interested in life when the children are around and they take more interest in their appearance too.
【3】There are many reasons for this, including the breakdown of the extended family, working parents with no time to care for aging relations, families that have moved away, and smaller flats with no room for grandparents. But the result is the sameincreasing numbers of children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children. And more old people who are lonely and feel useless, along with more and more families with young children who desperately need more support. 【4】
That’s why intergenerational programmes, designed to bring the old and the young together, are growing in popularity all over the world. 【5】 Using young people to teach IT skills to older people is one obvious example.
Using old people as volunteer assistants in schools is another, perhaps reading with children who need extra attention.
A．The advantages are enormous for everyone concerned.
B．There are examples of successful attempts all over the world.
C．Nowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young.
D．However, there are some similarities between the old and the young
E．The children and the residents eat lunch together and share activities.
F．No previous experience can we use to communicate between them.
G．It’s a major problem in many societies.
