试题分析：主要讲述了Amelia Earhart，美国首个单独飞行的女性的故事，她的冒险精神得到了欧洲国家和美国的赞扬，她也是这方面的先驱，向世界证明了，女性也能驾驶飞机。
【1】was flying 考查时态。根据句子结构可知，此处填谓语动词，描述当时的飞行高度，所以用过去进行时。
【2】could 考查情态动词。此处是指她不确信自己能否着陆。could表示过去的能力。
【3】going 考查非谓语动词。keep doing继续做某事。
【4】that 考查强调句型。根据句子结构可知，此句是强调句，其结构为：it is/was+强调部分+that+其它成份，所以填that。
【5】was honored 考查时态和语态。根据句子结构可知此处填谓语动词，主语和honor之间是被动关系，所以应用一般过去时的被动语态。
【6】to fly 考查非谓语动词。序数词和最高级后面应用动词不定式作定语，故填to fly。
【7】more skillful 考查比较级。根据横线后面的than可知此处填比较级，所以答案为more skillful。
【8】until 考查连词。句意：她对飞行的喜爱持续了很长时间直到1937她突然神秘的从公众的视线中消失。until直到，所以填until。

【题目】Dear Sir,
Last night I got caught in the heavy rain on the way home. As the result, I got a bad cold with a headache. I felt very tiring. My mother took me see the doctor. After the examination, the doctor told me to make it easy. He said it was nothing seriously. He also told me to have a good rest for a couple of days, take the medicines on time and drunk more boiled water. So I have to ask you a three-day leave. After I recover, I would try to make up for the missing lessons. If there are anything I do not understand, could I turn to you for help?
Mike

Young children may face serious health risks from popular energy drinks, such as Monster, Red Bull and Rock Star, 【1】 causing heart problems and other life-threatening conditions, according to the findings of new researches.
During a presentation at the annual Cardiac Scientific Sessions 2014 meeting of the American Heart Association (AHA), researchers warned about the risk of allowing young children 【2】 to the energy drinks, which contain high amounts of caffeine(咖啡因) and other stimulants.
Researches 【3】 that the energy drinks are not intended for young children and are not safe for them to consume. Steven Lipshultz, M.D., lead author of the study, is calling for a warning on all energy drink cans and bottles, warning parents of the risk of allowing children to drink them.
Researchers say it is difficult to know exactly how much caffeine is contained in each can or bottle of energy drinks, since they are often 【4】 as dietary supplements (补充物), which allow the manufacturers to avoid FDA regulations.
Energy drink manufacturers have compared the amount of caffeine in their products to that in hot drinks sold in coffee houses, but their products are often packaged in very large sizes and they are not sold in 【5】 environments like coffee houses, which typically would not serve young children. Energy drinks are widely available in 【6】 stores next to traditional soft drinks, typically packaged in very similar cans and using similar marketing techniques.
Some energy drinks in many of the popular lines can contain up to 400 mg of caffeine per can. In comparison, a cup of coffee typically has around 100 mg of caffeine. Caffeine poisoning can occur in adults at levels higher than 400 mg a day; however, children under 12 can 【7】 caffeine poisoning at only 2.5 mg per 2.2 pounds of body weight.
A study published in September 【8】 up the new findings, revealing energy drinks may cause serious heart problems. French researchers revealed the popular energy drinks may be linked to 【9】 risk of irregular heartbeats and even sudden death.
The FDA is 【10】 investigating health concerns surrounding the drinks after numerous negative event reports have been made in recent years connecting energy drinks to severe injuries and deaths.

【题目】When e-mail first came into general use about twenty years ago, there was a lot of talk about the arrival of the paperless office. However, it seems that e-mail has yet to revolutionize office communication. According to communications analyst Richard Metcalf, some offices have actually seen an increase in paper as a result of e-mail. “Information in the form of e-mail messages now floods our computer screens. These messages can be sent so quickly that memos tend to be distributed in the hundreds. For those secretaries whose bosses ask them to print out all their e-mails and leave them in their in-trays, this means using up a great deal of paper every month,” Metcalf says.
Metcalf has found that because some e-mails get lost in cyberspace, important documents are increasingly likely to be asked by clients and colleagues to send all important documents both by e-mail and by fax. This highlights a further potential problem with e-mail in today’s offices ─ it is taking up time rather than saving it. “With e-mail, communication is much easier, but there is also more room for misunderstandings,” says psychologist Dr David Lewis. Generally, much less care is taken with e-mails than with letters or faxes and the sender will probably print the document and reread it before putting it in an envelope or sending it by fax.
More worrying is still the increasing misuse of e-mail for sending “flame-mail” ─inappropriate e-mail messages. Recent research in several companies suggests that aggressive communications like this are on the increase. E-mail has become the perfect medium for conveying workplace dissatisfaction because it is so instant.
E-mail can also be a problem in other ways. Staffs all too often make the mistake of thinking that the contents of the e-mail, like things said over the phone, are private and not permanent. But it is not only possible for an employer to read all your e-mails, it is also perfectly legal. E-mail messages can be traced back to their origin for a period of at least two years, so you might want to rethink e-mailing your dissatisfaction about your boss to your friends. The advice is to keep personal e-mails out of the office.
(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 12 WORDS)
【1】The promise of paperless office has not come true in many offices mainly because many secretaries are asked to _____________.
【2】Why has e-mailing taken up time rather than saved it?

【4】It is advised that employees should not use company e-mails as a way of ___________.

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 其中有两项为多余选项。
Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
【1】 Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. Still others keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases hormones (荷尔蒙) which speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. 【2】
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
__【3】__ They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “【4】 Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”
Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. 【5】
