The race began on January 27. The first musher, Shannon, picked up the medicine
from the train at Nenana and rode all night. 46 he handed the medicine to the

December 15, 2014
Dear Alfred,
I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.
Growing up, I had people telling me I was too slow, though, with an IQ of 150+
at 17, I’m anything but stupid. The fact was that I was found to have ADHD（注意力
缺陷多动障碍）. Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep focused for more than an
hour at a time.
However, when something did interest me, I could become absorbed. In high
school, I became curious about the computer, and built my first website. Moreover, I
completed the senior course of Computer Basics, plus five relevant pre-college
courses.
While I was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wanted to go to
college after high school, but couldn’t. So, I was killing my time at home until June
2012 when I discovered the online computer courses of your training center.
Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics.
Currently, I’m learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper,
covered in self-written notes from your video. This has given me a purpose.
Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the
public, I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the
job-Data Analyst-this month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to provethat I can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as
good as, if not better than, my competitors.
Thank you. You’ve given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the first time, I
feel good about myself because I’m doing something, not because someone told me I
was doing good. I feel whole.
This is why you’re saving my life.
Yours,
Tanis

Surviving Hurricane Sandy（飓风桑迪）
Natalie Doan, 14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living
just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from
her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.
On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy
attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s
family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in
ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All
around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so
damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.
In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover
inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys.
Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed
dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in
powerless high-rise buildings.
“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “but I
can always choose how I deal with it.”
Natalie’s choice was to help.
She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted
to help. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball
card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was
replaced.
In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who
received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked
with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made
her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a
Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.
Today, the scars（创痕）of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in
the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine
living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie declares. “My neighborhood will be back,
even stronger than before.”
59. When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane, she found .
A. some friends had lost their lives
B. her neighborhood was destroyed
C. her school had moved to Brooklyn
D. the elderly were free from suffering60. According to paragraph 4, who inspired Natalie most?
A. The people helping Rockaway rebuild.
B. The people trapped in high-rise building.
C. The volunteers donating money to survivors.
D. Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people.
61. How did Natalie help the survivors?
A. She gave her toys to the kids.
B. She took care of younger children.
C. She called on the White House to help.
D. She built an information sharing platform.
62. What does the story intend to tell us?
A. Little people can make a big difference.
B.A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C. East or West, home is best.
D. Technology is power.

California Condor’s Shocking Recovery
California condors are North America’s largest birds, with wind-length of up to 3
meters. In the1980s, electrical lines and lead poisoning(铅中毒) nearly drove them to
dying out. Now, electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue
these big birds.
In the late 1980s, the last few condors were taken from the wild, and there are
now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona, Utah and Baja in
Mexico.
Electrical lines have been killing them off. “As they go in to rest for the night,
they just don’t see the power lines,” says Bruce Ride out of San Diego Zoo. Their
wings can bridge the gap between lines, resulting in electrocution9电死) if they touch
two lines at once.So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles, placed in large
training areas, teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful
but undeadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced, 66% of set-freed
condors died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%.
Lead poisonous has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead
bodies of other animals containing lead, they absorb large quantities of lead. This
affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds, and can lead to kidney
（肾）failures and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles
Zoo, where they are treated with calcium EDTA, a chemical that removes lead from
the blood over several days. This work is starting to pay off. The annual death rate for
adult condors has dropped from 38% in 2000 to 5.4% in 2011.
Rideout’s team thinks that the California condors’ average survival time in the
wild is now just under eight years. “Although these measures are not effective forever,
they are vital for now,” he says. “They are truly good birds that are worth every effort
we put into recovering them.”
63.California condors attract researchers’ interest because they .
A. are active at night B. had to be bred in the wild
C. are found on in California D. almost died out in the 1980s
64. Researchers have found electrical lines are .
A. blocking condors’ journey home B. big killers of California condors
C. rest places for condors at night D. used to keep condors away
65. According to Paragraph 5, lead poisoning .
A. makes condors too nervous to fly
B. has little effect on condors’ kidneys
C. can hardly be gotten rid of form condors’ blood
D. makes it different for condors to produce baby birds
66. The passage shows that .A. the average survival time of condors is satisfactory
B. Rideout’s research interest lies in electric engineering
C. the efforts to protect condors have brought good results
D. researchers have found the final answers to the problem.
D
Why College Is Not Home
The college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy
（自主性）and the development of adult identity. However, now they are becoming
an extended period of adolescence, during which many of today’s students and are not
shouldered with adult responsibilities.
For previous generations, college was decisive break from parental control;
guidance and support needed help from people of the same age and from within. In
the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family,
thanks to cell phones, email and social media, have increased significantly. Some
parents go so far as to help with coursework. Instead of promoting the idea of college
as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility,
universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment
as that of the home.
To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility, college needs to be a time
of exploration and experimentation. This process involves “trying on” new ways of
thinking about oneself bother intellectually（在思维方面）and personally. While we
should provide “safe spaces” within colleges, we must also make it safe to express
opinions and challenge majority views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered
on debate and questioning.
Learning to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college
community（群体）differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a
sense of belonging. If students rely on administrators to regulate their social behaviorand thinking pattern, they are not facing the challenge of finding an identity within a
larger and complex community.
Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior
runs up against another characteristic of young adults: the response to being
controlled by their elders. If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined (规定)
and controlled, the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking
to minimize may actually be encouraged.
It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out, particularly when
there are reasons to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times
of national emergency. What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescent’s
desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is
the desire for their dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience
intellectual growth.
Every college discussion about community values, social climate and behavior
should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and
self-regulation, of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery.
67. What’s the author’s attitude toward continued parental guidance to college
students?
A. Sympathetic B. Disapproving C. Supportive D. Neutral
68. The underlined word “passage” in Paragraph 2 means .
A. change B. choice C. text D. extension
69. According to the author, what role should college play?
A. To develop a shared identity among students.
B. To define and regulate students’ social behavior.
C. To provide a safe world without tension for students.
D. To foster students’ intellectual and personal development.

The Science of Risk-Seeking
Sometimes we decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when
we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth tasking. 71 Some of
us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it
may have to do with how our brains work.
The reason why any of us take any risks at all might have to do with early
humans. Risk-takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. 72 As the
quality of Risk-taking was passed from on ration to the next, humans ended up with a
sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.
So why aren’t we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200,000 years
ago, too much risk-taking could get one Killed. A few daring survived, though, along
with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character
types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it. 73
No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientists say that your
Willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years. 74 To help you
do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often
mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.
Mean taking some risks, so your brain raisers your tolerance for risk as well.75 For the risk-seekers, a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes
active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.
As experts continue to study the science of risk-seeking, we’ll continue to hit the
mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.
A. It all depends on your character.
B. Those are the risks you should jump to take.
C. Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.
D. Thus, these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.
E. This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.
F. However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks and
rewards.
G. New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous
situation.

M: Hello. Welcome to the program. In America, May and June are the traditional
months for graduations. A listener in China, Wang Ming, who is about to get an
engineering degree, wants to know how American college graduates find jobs. Right
now, the answer is: not very easily. A latest study on the college job market showed
that employers wanted to hire 22% fewer graduates this year than last. The study also
showed that just 20% of those who looked for jobs before graduation have found one
by now. This is compared to half of students who had looked for a job by this time
two years ago. But one difference: fewer of this year’s graduates have started to
search for jobs. Engineering graduates were more likely to have started their job
search already, and to have accepted a job. This is among the best-paid professions for
people with just a college degree. On average, engineering majors expect to start at
about $62,000 a year.

【考点】59：关系代词．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】句意：我住在一对夫妇的隔壁，他们的孩子很吵．
【解答】答案A．本题考查定语从句的关系词．a couple是先行词，这对夫妻的
孩子很吵，children和couple是所属关系，故用whose作定语，表示…的，相当
于the children of whom或者 of whom the children．故选：A．

【考点】EA：现在完成进行时．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】句意：﹣﹣打扰了，你在等哪一部电影？﹣﹣﹣≤星球大战≥，我们
已经等了两个多小时了．
【解答】答案D． 本题考查时态，根据题目中时间状语 for+段时间，与完成时
连用，根据句意，已经等了两个多小时，可能还会继续等下去，故用have been
doing，表示过去发生的动作，可能刚刚结束，还可能继续持续下去．故选D．
【点评】本题考查时态，要掌握各种时态在具体语境中的使用．
24. Your support is important to our work, you can do helps.A. However B. Whoever C. Whatever D. Wherever
【考点】58：连接代词．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】句意：你的支持对我们的工作很重要，无论你做什么对我们都有帮助．
【解答】答案C．本题考查名词性从句，___you can do是主语从句，并且缺少
do 的宾语，所以用whatever，表示无论什么，故选：C．
【点评】本题考查名词性从句，要会分析句子的成分，并且掌握 whatever的用
法．
25. I half of the English novel, and I’ll try to finish it at the weekend.

选项B是现在完成时，表示从过去某个时间点开始的动作，一直持续到现在，
还可能继续下去；选项 C是现在进行时，表示正在进行的动作或存在的状态；
选项 D 是过去将来时，表示将来要发生的动作或存在的状态．根据语境可
知，"看小说"这一动作发生在过去，到目前为止看了一半，还要继续看下去，
所以用现在完成时，故选B．
【点评】本题考查现在完成时，表示从过去某个时间点开始的动作，一直持续
到现在，还可能继续下去．做题时，要根据四个选项时态的特点，结合句子动
作发生的时间，选择正确的时态．
26. it easier to get in touch with us, you’d better keep this card at hand.
A. Made B. Make C. Making D. To make
【考点】BA：不定式．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】以便和我们联系更容易些，你最好把这张卡片留在身边．
【解答】答案：D. 分析句子结构可知，句中的 it作make的形式宾语，真正的
宾语是"to get in touch with us"；"make…easier"意为"使…更容易"；结合句意可知，此处" it easier to get in touch with us"在句中应该做目的状语；意为：以
便和我们联系更容易些；A．Made 是过去分词形式，通常与主语构成被动/动宾
关系；此处make的形式宾语是it，与主语没有意义关系；故 A不正确； B．
Make 通过分析句意，本句不是祈使句，故句子开头不能使用动词原形，故B
不正确；C．Making是现在分词形式，通常与主语构成主谓关系，此处 make与
主语没有意义关系；所以C也不正确；D．To make是动词不定式用在此处做目
的状语；故选D
【点评】本题考查了动词不定式作目的状语的用法．做本题时，需要正确辨别
分词短语与不定式的用法区别．
27. My grandfather still plays tennis now and then, he’s in his nineties.
A. as long as B. as if C. even though D. in case
【考点】92：从属连词；HK：让步状语从句．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】句意：尽管我的爷爷九十几岁了，他仍然有时打网球．
【解答】答案C．"as long as"只要；"as if"似乎，好像；"even through"即使，尽
管；"in case"以防万一．根据句意，尽管我的爷爷九十几岁了，他仍然有时打网
球．这里用even though 引导让步状语从句，故选C．
【点评】本题考查的是从属连词，要熟悉选项中从属连词的意思并结合具体的
语境选择出正确的选项．
28. ______ over a week ago, the books are expected to arrive any time now.
A. Ordering B. To order C. Having ordered D. Ordered
【考点】BB：过去分词．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】句意：这些书是一周之前订的，他们预计在现在的任何时间都可以到
达．
【解答】答案D．根据句意，"书预计在现在的任何时间都可以到达"，说明书
已经被预定．而"order"与"the books"之间是被动关系，故选 D．"having
ordered"只能表示动作的完成，而不表示被动．【点评】本题考查的是非谓语动词，要分析动词与主语的逻辑关系，并结合具
体的语境选择出正确的选项．
29. The most pleasant thing of the rainy season is _____ one can be entirely free from
dust.
A. what B. that C. whether D. why
【考点】HD：表语从句．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】雨季最令人愉悦的就是人们可以完全不再受到沙尘的困扰．
【解答】答案B．"﹣﹣one can be entirely free from dust"是做系动词is的表语，
所以该部分是表语从句．分析表语从句的句子成分可知：从句中的主语是
one，can be 是复合谓语，free from dust 是形容词短语做表语，句子是"主系
表"结构，那么可首先排除连接代词what．连词whether引导表语从句时虽然不
做成分，但是有意义，意思是"是否"；连接副词why引导表语从句时，不仅在
句中作状语，而且还有意义，意思是"为什么"．that引导表语从句时，只起引导
作用，没有任何意义，但是不能省略．联系句子所表达的意思可知横线处不缺
意义，故用连词that来引导表语从句．故答案选B．
【点评】本题考查表语从句，要掌握表语的用法和学会句子成分的分析．
30. The students have been working hard on their lessons and their efforts ______
success in the end.
A. rewarded B. were rewarded C. will reward D. will be rewarded
【考点】F1：一般将来时的被动语态．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】学生们一直在刻苦学习功课，他们的努力将来一定会得到回报．
【解答】答案D．A和B表示过去的客观事实，根据句意，回报是将来发生的
事，应该用一般将来时，而efforts和reward 是被动关系，故选D．
【点评】本题考查时态和语态，要了解各个时态的用法并结合具体的语境选择
出正确的选项．31. I love the weekend, because I _____ get up early on Saturdays and Sundays.
A. needn’t B. mustn’t C. wouldn’t D. shouldn’t
【考点】A6：情态动词．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】我喜欢周末，因为周六和周日我不需要早起．
【解答】答案 A．"needn't"没必要，不需要；"mustn't"禁止；"wouldn't"不愿
意；"shouldn't"不应该．根据句意，周六和周日"不需要"早起，故选A．
【点评】本题考查情态动词，要掌握情态动词的用法并结合具体的语境选择出
正确的选项．
32. Newly-built wooden cottages line the street, _____ the old town into a dreamland.
A. turn B. turning C. to turn D. turned
【考点】B3：现在分词．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】新建的木屋林立在街道的两旁，使古镇变成了一个梦幻之地．
【解答】答案B．题目考查现在分词表伴随状况．句意：新建的木屋林立在街
道的两旁，使古镇变成了一个梦幻之地．A．turn错误，句中 已经有谓语动词，
只能选择一个非谓语动词．turn的逻辑主语是cottages，两者是主动关系，故用
现在分词，表示主动和伴随，故选B．
【点评】本题考查非谓语动词，属于中档题．
33. I really enjoy listening to music ___ it helps me relax and takes my mind away
from other cares of the day.
A. because B. before C. unless D. until
【考点】92：从属连词．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】句意：我非常喜欢听音乐，因为它能让我放松，使我不去想其它的事
情．
【解答】答案 A．"because"因为；"before"在…之前；"unless"除非，如果
不；"until"直到…根据句意，我非常喜欢听音乐，因为它能让我放松，使我不去想其它的事情．前后是因果关系，故选A．
【点评】本题考查原因状语从句，要掌握具体的语境选择出正确的连词．
34. Why didn’t you tell me about your trouble last week? If you ___ me, I could have
helped.
A. told B. had told C. were to tell D. would tell
【考点】E9：过去完成时；GJ：虚拟语气．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】你上周为什么没有告诉我你遇到麻烦？如果你告诉我的话，我就会帮
助你了．
【解答】答案B．本题考查的是虚拟语气，根据句意，"你上周为什么没有告诉
我你遇到麻烦"，表示与过去的虚拟，句型结构为 if+主语+had done，主语
+would/could/might/should+have done，故选B．
【点评】本题考查虚拟语气，要掌握与过去，现在，将来虚拟时的句型结构并
结构具体的语境选择出正确的答案．
35. I am not afraid of tomorrow, ______ I have seen yesterday and I love today.
A. so B. and C. for D. but
【考点】91：并列连词．
菁优网版权所有
【分析】我并不惧怕明天，因为我见过昨天并深爱着今天．
【解答】答案：C．分析句子内容可知，我不害怕明天的原因是我见过昨天并
深爱着今天，两者构成了一种因果关系，所以用表示原因的连词 for，本句属于
前果后因；so可引导结果，and表并列，而but表示转折，均不符合句意；故选
C．
【点评】对于连词的运用要认真分析句子之间的逻辑关系，结合连词的具体用
法即可做出正确的选择．

diphtheria, a deadly infectious（传染的）disease mainly affecting children. The
children of Nome would be 37 if it struck the town. Dr. Welch needed medicine as

over 1,000 miles away, in Anchorage.
How could the medicine get to Nome? The town’s 39 was already full of
ice, so it couldn’t come by ship. Cars and horses couldn’t travel on the 40 roads.

【分析】[生死较量]
文章讲述了一个和死亡赛跑的故事．1925年寒冷的一月，在北阿拉斯加一
个叫诺姆（Nome）的小镇，因为大雪失去了与外界的联系．更可怕的是医生检
查到一种致命的传染病"白喉"，如果不马上救治，小镇上的孩子都会遭殃．一面是急需药物，一面是最近的药品供应站还在千里之外，加上大雪封路，水陆
不通．紧急时刻，诺姆镇的官员们想到了一个办法：先用列车将药品从安克拉
治送到尼纳纳，再用狗拉雪橇运送．从而展开了一场生死接力．在经历了重重
考验后，药物及时送达，诺姆镇的孩子们获救了．
【解答】36-40 ABDCB 41-45 CDABA 46-50 CDCDC 51-55 ABADB
36．A Dr. Welch是检查出一个叫Billy的男孩得了白喉，故选A．
37．B 由前后句意可知，Dr. Welch希望药品能尽快地送到，但是最近的供应点
有1000公里远，因而选B，表示"很无助"．
38．D 由前面的句子的句意可知，Dr. Welch希望药品能尽快送到．_____，最
近的供应点有1000公里远，可知前后位转折关系，用并列连词however．
39．C 由句子中的关键词 by ship 可知，对应的应该是 harbor（港口），因选
C．
40．B 前面说到了下雪的天气，所以这句话里面应该是 snowy roads（雪地），
应选B．
41．C 由动词的时态had died，表示动作在过去的一段时间完成，应该用过去完
成时，这里表示到（某个具体时间点）为止，要用by．
42．D 前面说到Billy和三个其他孩子去世了，这句说明还有二十个孩子_____，
可以推知是生病了，选D．
43．A 由后文可知，出现了新的运输方式，They would have the medicine sent by
44 from Anchorage to Nenana. From there, dogsled（狗拉雪橇）drivers﹣known
as "mushers"﹣would __45__ it to Nome in a relay（接力），可知是想到了新的方
法/主意，故选A．
44．B 由上文 The town’s 39 was already full of ice, so it couldn’t come by
ship. Cars and horses couldn’t travel on the 40 roads. Jet airplanes and big trucks
didn’t exist yet. 可排除选项ACD．
45．A Dogsled（狗拉雪橇）drivers would ____ it to Nome．本句可以把插入语拿
掉，结合上下文可知，是"带上"药品，故用carry．
46．C 由前后句子可知，是Shannon将药交给下一只狗的时候，它的脸都冻黑
了．因此选用when．
47．D 结合前后句可知，Norton Sound是一个结了冰的水域，所以应该是穿过这条结冰的水域，答案为D．A frozen body意为结了冰的水面．
48．C 由后面的句子 Norton Sound was covered with ice, which could sometimes
break up without warning.（水面结了冰，有时会毫无预兆地裂开），可知其危险
性，故答案为C．
49．D 根据前后句可知，假如 Seppala掉进水里…and so would the sick children
of Nome.（诺姆镇的孩子也会____），可以推知是"完蛋了"，die，选D．
50．C 根据动词block可知，是block one’s way，挡住了某人的路，因此选C．
51．A 由后面的内容可知，Balto put his nose to the ground…是在找路，因此可
以推知Kaasen找不到路，选find．
52．B 此处为Balto是在试图找到路，应为try to do sth，选B．
53．A 可以采用排除法，Balto找到了路线后，不可能是leave，bite和play，而
是赶紧赶路，因此为run．答案为A．
54．D 由Dr. Welch had the medicine．可以推知，Kaasen and his dog是到达了，
因此为arrived．
55．B 诺姆镇的孩子因为有了药而____，根据前文可以推知，故事最后的结果
是﹣﹣孩子们成功获救了，因此为saved．
【点评】完形填空是考查语言的应用能力．解题时在理解文章大意的情况下，
要充分考虑语境和上下文暗示．对于故事类的文章，因为情节性较强，要特别
留心．

December 15, 2014
Dear Alfred,
I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.
Growing up, I had people telling me I was too slow, though, with an IQ of 150+
at 17, I’m anything but stupid. The fact was that I was found to have ADHD（注意力缺陷多动障碍）. Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep focused for more than an
hour at a time.
However, when something did interest me, I could become absorbed. In high
school, I became curious about the computer, and built my first website. Moreover, I
completed the senior course of Computer Basics, plus five relevant pre-college
courses.
While I was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wanted to go to
college after high school, but couldn’t. So, I was killing my time at home until June
2012 when I discovered the online computer courses of your training center.
Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics.
Currently, I’m learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper,
covered in self-written notes from your video. This has given me a purpose.
Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the
public, I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the
job-Data Analyst-this month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to prove
that I can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as
good as, if not better than, my competitors.
Thank you. You’ve given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the first time, I
feel good about myself because I’m doing something, not because someone told me I
was doing good. I feel whole.
This is why you’re saving my life.
Yours,
Tanis
56. Why didn’t Tanis go to college after high school?
A. She had learned enough about computer science.
B. She had more difficulty keeping focused.
C. She preferred taking online courses.
D. She was too slow to learn.
57. AS for the working environment, Tanis prefers .
A. working by herself B. dealing with the publicC. competing against others D. staying with ADHD students
58. Tanis wrote this letter in order to .
A. explain why she was interested in the computer

Surviving Hurricane Sandy（飓风桑迪）
Natalie Doan, 14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living
just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from
her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.
On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy
attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s
family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.
When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in
ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All
around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so
damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.
In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover
inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys.
Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed
dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in
powerless high-rise buildings.
“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “but I
can always choose how I deal with it.”
Natalie’s choice was to help.
She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted
to help. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball
card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was
replaced.
In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who
received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked
with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts madeher a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a
Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.
Today, the scars（创痕）of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in
the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine
living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie declares. “My neighborhood will be back,
even stronger than before.”
59. When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane, she found .
A. some friends had lost their lives
B. her neighborhood was destroyed
C. her school had moved to Brooklyn
D. the elderly were free from suffering
60. According to paragraph 4, who inspired Natalie most?
A. The people helping Rockaway rebuild.
B. The people trapped in high-rise building.
C. The volunteers donating money to survivors.
D. Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people.
61. How did Natalie help the survivors?
A. She gave her toys to the kids.
B. She took care of younger children.
C. She called on the White House to help.
D. She built an information sharing platform.
62. What does the story intend to tell us?
A. Little people can make a big difference.
B.A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C. East or West, home is best.
D. Technology is power.

California Condor’s Shocking Recovery
California condors are North America’s largest birds, with wind-length of up to 3
meters. In the1980s, electrical lines and lead poisoning(铅中毒) nearly drove them to
dying out. Now, electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue
these big birds.
In the late 1980s, the last few condors were taken from the wild, and there are
now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona, Utah and Baja in
Mexico.Electrical lines have been killing them off. “As they go in to rest for the night,
they just don’t see the power lines,” says Bruce Ride out of San Diego Zoo. Their
wings can bridge the gap between lines, resulting in electrocution9电死) if they touch
two lines at once.
So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles, placed in large
training areas, teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful
but undeadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced, 66% of set-freed
condors died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%.
Lead poisonous has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead
bodies of other animals containing lead, they absorb large quantities of lead. This
affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds, and can lead to kidney
（肾）failures and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles
Zoo, where they are treated with calcium EDTA, a chemical that removes lead from
the blood over several days. This work is starting to pay off. The annual death rate for
adult condors has dropped from 38% in 2000 to 5.4% in 2011.
Rideout’s team thinks that the California condors’ average survival time in the
wild is now just under eight years. “Although these measures are not effective forever,
they are vital for now,” he says. “They are truly good birds that are worth every effort
we put into recovering them.”
63.California condors attract researchers’ interest because they .
A. are active at night B. had to be bred in the wild
C. are found on in California D. almost died out in the 1980s
64. Researchers have found electrical lines are .
A. blocking condors’ journey home B. big killers of California condors
C. rest places for condors at night D. used to keep condors away
65. According to Paragraph 5, lead poisoning .A. makes condors too nervous to fly
B. has little effect on condors’ kidneys
C. can hardly be gotten rid of form condors’ blood
D. makes it different for condors to produce baby birds
66. The passage shows that .
A. the average survival time of condors is satisfactory
B. Rideout’s research interest lies in electric engineering
C. the efforts to protect condors have brought good results
D. researchers have found the final answers to the problem.

Why College Is Not Home
The college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy
（自主性）and the development of adult identity. However, now they are becoming
an extended period of adolescence, during which many of today’s students and are not
shouldered with adult responsibilities.
For previous generations, college was decisive break from parental control;
guidance and support needed help from people of the same age and from within. In
the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family,
thanks to cell phones, email and social media, have increased significantly. Some
parents go so far as to help with coursework. Instead of promoting the idea of college
as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility,
universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment
as that of the home.
To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility, college needs to be a time
of exploration and experimentation. This process involves “trying on” new ways of
thinking about oneself bother intellectually（在思维方面）and personally. While we
should provide “safe spaces” within colleges, we must also make it safe to express
opinions and challenge majority views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered
on debate and questioning.
Learning to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college
community（群体）differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a
sense of belonging. If students rely on administrators to regulate their social behaviorand thinking pattern, they are not facing the challenge of finding an identity within a
larger and complex community.
Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior
runs up against another characteristic of young adults: the response to being
controlled by their elders. If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined (规定)
and controlled, the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking
to minimize may actually be encouraged.
It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out, particularly when
there are reasons to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times
of national emergency. What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescent’s
desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is
the desire for their dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience
intellectual growth.
Every college discussion about community values, social climate and behavior
should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and
self-regulation, of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery.
67. What’s the author’s attitude toward continued parental guidance to college
students?
A. Sympathetic B. Disapproving C. Supportive D. Neutral
68. The underlined word “passage” in Paragraph 2 means .
A. change B. choice C. text D. extension
69. According to the author, what role should college play?
A. To develop a shared identity among students.
B. To define and regulate students’ social behavior.
C. To provide a safe world without tension for students.
D. To foster students’ intellectual and personal development.

【分析】本文讲述了当下的大学教育现状﹣﹣大学原本是培养学生独立性和成
年特征的场所，是学生从"家"到"社会"的过渡，然而现在的大学教育却成了青
年的"安居"场所，青年人越来越不能承担起作为成年人的责任．作者分析了形
成这种现象的原因并且提出了相关的改进建议．
【解答】BADC
67．B 猜测作者情感态度．第二段记叙了这种现象﹣﹣上一代人里，大学生是
从同龄人中获得帮助和指引；而这二十年里，大学生从父母处获得帮助．第三
段 里 作 者 表 明 了 自 己 的 态 度 ﹣ ﹣ To prepare for increased autonomy and
responsibility, college needs to be a time of exploration and experimentation. 以及
While we should provide "safe spaces" within colleges, we must also make it safe to
express opinions and challenge majority views. 以及综合全文的中心思想（可在第
一段和最后一段找到），作者并不赞同"continued parental guidance to college
students"（大学生继续父母的指导）．故答案为B disapproving．
68．A 词义理解题．可在第二段找到原句"Instead of promoting the idea of college
as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility,
universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment
as that of the home." 结合句意可知，接受家的庇护到大学生的独立性和承担成人
的责任是一个"过渡"，是一种变化过程，因此答案为A，change．
69．D 中心思想归纳题．由全文大意以及最后一段总结段的作者的意见 Everycollege discussion about community values, social climate and behavior should
include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and self-
regulation, of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery. 以及第三段的
关键句Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered on debate and questioning.可知
第三段关键句的同义句是D选项，作者主张加强大学生的独立性以及个性发展．
故答案为D．
70．C 写作结构分析题．全文第一段作者提出了全文的中心思想，最后一段再
次呼吁．第二和三段是现象和建议的关系（第二段陈述的是一种现象"在孩子上
大学时，家长仍继续指引；学校也提倡给大学生提供跟家一样舒适的环境."，
第三段提出针对这一现象的建议），第四五段是对第三段的建议进行分述，第
六段是进一步说明第五段的内容﹣﹣如果不这样做的话产生的结果．因此答案
为C．

The Science of Risk-Seeking
Sometimes we decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when
we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth tasking. 71 Some of
us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it
may have to do with how our brains work.
The reason why any of us take any risks at all might have to do with early
humans. Risk-takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. 72 As the
quality of Risk-taking was passed from on ration to the next, humans ended up with a
sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.So why aren’t we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200,000 years
ago, too much risk-taking could get one Killed. A few daring survived, though, along
with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character
types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it. 73
No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientists say that your
Willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years. 74 To help you
do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often
mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.
Mean taking some risks, so your brain raisers your tolerance for risk as well.
75 For the risk-seekers, a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes
active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.
As experts continue to study the science of risk-seeking, we’ll continue to hit the
mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.
A. It all depends on your character.
B. Those are the risks you should jump to take.
C. Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.
D. Thus, these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.
E. This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.
F. However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks and
rewards.
G. New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous
situation.

更大的世界的时候．故选E．
75．G 空格后面说 For the risk-seekers a part of the brain related to pleasure
becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes
active. 不同的人的大脑在处理快乐和恐惧时表现也会不一样．故前面应该是说
大脑的不同反应．故选G．
