A
The ancient village of Machu Picchu is one of the most popular tourist destinations in South
America. It’s in Peru, high in the Andes Mountains, 8, 000 feetabove sea level.
The village contains 200 buildings. Houses are in groups, and each house has a large courtyard
inside its walls. The Incas(印加人) used the areas outside the groups of houses to grow corn and
potatoes and to raise animals. The Incas were very good at building strong walls. Visitors to Machu
Picchu still cannot fit a knife between the stones of a village home.
Machu Picchu seemed to be a healthy, busy village. So why was it lost? That is a mystery, but
experts have some ideas. Machu Picchu was hard to reach. Few people outside the village knew
about it. Experts think that many residents died of disease. Others fought a war. The survivors left
the village.
The tourists are good for Peru’s economy, but they are not good for Machu Picchu. The village
is old and fragile. Tourists damage the ruins. Thousands of footsteps from visitors wear down the
walkways in the village. Salt and oil from people’s hands damage the walls. Air pollution from buses
hurts the stones. Tourists do not want to damage the village, but they want to see this beautiful,
ancient place.
The Peruvian government and conservation groups are trying to solve the problem. A group
from the United Nations wants to limit the number of tourists each year. They also want cars and
buses to use cleaner fuel.
1.What crops did the Incas grow?
A.Rice and beans. B.Tomatoes and peas.
C.Wheat and peas. D.Potatoes and corn.
2.How do we know that Incas were good at building walls?
A.The Incas knew how to make good use of the land.

One night Peter received a call from his social worker asking, “Can you take in an 11-year-old
boy just for the weekend?" It was just a few days after he had said goodbye to two brothers he was
fostering (收养), so he told the social worker that his heart was deeply saddened by the loss of the
two boys that had just been reunited with their birth parents. Peter thought he didn't have enough
energy left to care for another child at the moment. But the worker convinced him.
The social worker arrived at his home with the boy at 6 am after driving five hours from another
county. There is a huge shortage of foster families in Oklahoma so when a child enters the foster
care system, social workers are often forced to place the children outside of the county of origin,
often removing the child from the only place he or she has ever known. Add in the fact that older
children are much more difficult to place.
Peter asked why Anthony, the boy, was in foster care. Then he knew that the boy had been
abandoned (抛弃)by his mother when he was 2. He was then placed with a family. But almost ten
years later, the family abandoned him at the hospital. Peter was shocked, “It's like my life!”
The two have been together ever since. And on the 12th of November, Anthony finally got to
share Peter's last name officially. However, Peter didn't stop fostering kids. “It's hard to be a single
foster dad but it's worth every minute of it. We are about to have another child next month and we
are excited.”
5.What can we infer about Peter from the first paragraph?
A.He is rich. B.He is kind.
C.He is busy. D.He is brave.
6.Why did the social worker drive a long way to send the boy to Peter?
A.Peter asked him to do so. B.He knew Peter liked the boy.
C.Peter lived in the boy's birthplace. D.He couldn't find a foster family locally.
7.What doPeter's words in Paragraph 3 show?
A.He likes his present life. B.He worked at the hospital.
C.He wanted to have a family. D.He also had a poor childhood.

Efforts were underway in Bangladesh to deliver food and drinking water to millions of people

Bank.
On Wednesday, at least 17 of the country’s 64 districts (地区), mostly in the northern and north-
eastern Sylhet, were suffering from the natural disaster. Government officials said at least 36 people
had been killed and about 4.5 million people stuck so far. The floods also caused damage to
agriculture (农业), electricity, and clean water supply.
Sylhet is among the worst affected, with several areas without electricity. “Many people are in
great need of food and drinking water,” said Enam Ahmed, 45, living in the worst-hit Sunmaganj
district. “There is water everywhere but no drinking water. Flood shelters are filled with people but
they are not getting enough food,” he said.
The situation in Bangladesh has been worsened by rain water falling down from the
surrounding hills of India’s Meghalaya state, which received more than 970 mm (38 inches) of rain
on Sunday, according to a government report.
“The flood situation in the three Barak valley districts continues to be very serious. Army
rescuers have evacuated thousands of trapped people to safe places. 14 rescue teams with more than
70 boats and over 400 men have been pressed into action in the heavily flooded districts,” said a
local flood control official. About 5.5 million people have been displaced, about 3.7 million of
whom are staying in government-run temporary (临时的) shelters on higher ground.
Locals in the flood-affected areas said they had never seen such serious floods before.
8.What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A.The role played by government officials. B.The people frapped in the disaster.
C.The number of districts in the country. D.The damage caused by the floods.
9.What do we know about the flood shelters?
A.There is a crying need for food. B.They can provide enough clean water.
C.They are too old to hold people. D.There are few villagers staying inside.
10.What does the underlined word “displaced” in paragraph 5 mean?
A.Called on. B.Checked out.
C.Moved away. D.Sent in.
11.What can we infer from the text?
A.More rescue efforts are needed. B.The floods hit the whole country.
C.The disaster is the biggest ever. D.Rivers nationwide are at risk.

For some people, smartphones have set them free from the nine-to-five work. Flexible working
has given them more control over their working lives and enabled them to spend more time with
their friends and families. For many others though, smartphones have become cruel masters in their
pockets, never allowing them to turn them off and relax.
Pittsburgh-based developer Kevin Holesh was worried about how much he was ignoring his
family and friends in favor of his iPhone. So he developed an app — Moment — to monitor his
usage. The app enables users to see how much time they’re spending on the device and set up
warnings if the usage limits are broken. “Moment’s goal is to promote balance in your life,” his
website explains. “Some time on your phone, some time off it enjoying your loving family and
friends around you.”
Dr Christine Grant, an occupational psychologist at Coventry University, said, “The effects of
this ‘always on’ culture are that your mind is never resting, and you’re not giving your body time to
recover, so you’re always stressed. And the more tired and stressed we get, the more mistakes we
make. Physical and mental health can suffer.”
And as the number of connected smartphones is increasing, so is the amount of data. This is
leading to a sort of decision paralysis (瘫痪) and is creating more stress in the workplace because
people have to receive a broader range of data and communications which are often difficult to
manage. “It actually makes it more difficult to make decisions and many do less because they’re
controlled by it all and feel they can never escape the office,” said Dr Christine Grant.
12. What’s the first paragraph mainly about?
A. The popularity of smartphones. B. The progress of modern technology.
C. The signs of “always on” stress. D. The solutions of smartphone addiction.
13. Kevin Holesh developed Moment to .
A. research how people use their mobile phones
B. help people control their use of mobile phones
C. make people better use mobile phones
D. increase the fun of using mobile phones
14. What’s Dr Christine Grant’s attitude towards “always on” culture?
A. Confused. B. Positive. C. Doubtful. D. Critical.
15. According to the last paragraph, a greater amount of data means .
A. we will become less productive
B. we can make a decision more quickly
C. we will be equipped with more knowledge
D. we can work more effectively

I grew up in a small town where the primary school was a ten-minute walk from my house.
When the noon bell rang, I would race breathlessly home. My mother would be standing at the top
of the stairs, smiling down at me.
One lunchtime when I was in the third grade will stay with me always. I had been picked to be
the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had rehearsed (排练) my lines so hard
with me. But no matter how easily I acted at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word

narrator’s (旁白的) part to the play, and asked me to change roles. Her words, kindly expressed,
still hurt, especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed
my pain. Instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard.
It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine (藤蔓) was turning green. Under the huge trees,
we could see yellow dandelions (蒲公英) in the grass in bunch, as if a painter had touched our
landscape with gold. I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion. “I think I’m going
to dig up all these weeds,” she said, pulling it up by its roots. “From now on, we’ll have only roses
in this garden.”
“But I like dandelions,” I protested. “All flowers are beautiful-even dandelions.”
My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn’t
it?” She asked thoughtfully. I nodded, pleased that I had won her over. “And that is true of people
too,” she added. “Not everyone can be a princess, but there is no shame in that.” Relieved that she
had guessed my pain, I started to cry as I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled.
注意：所续写短文的词数应为150左右。
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, encouraging and comforting me as usual.

A Skating Race
Last Sunday, our school held a skating race for teenagers titled “Build up body for the Winter
Olympics”.
At 9:00 am. many skate lovers in our school gathered on the playground to compete for their
best. They moved and jumped fast and smoothly across every obstacle as if they were flying, which
made all the audience applaud heatedly. The skills that they showed left a deep impression on me.
In the whole competition, we were excited and energetic.
The activity has made me realize that all of us should have strong bodies and we must prepare
ourselves well for the coming Winter Olympics.
写作第二节 【参考范文】
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, encouraging and comforting me as usual. “You
just haven’t been ready for the stage performance.” Seeing the sadness on my face soften a little,
she added, “Why not take the narrator’s part as an opportunity to be familiar with the stage?” Her
encouragement calmed me down gradually, and I began to accept the narrator’s part was of vital
significance. Soon it was the big day. At first I was still nervous, but then I found a dandelion in my
pocket. I knew my mom passed the flower to me, hoping it would be my lucky charm.
After the play, I took home the flower. Mom carefully gazed at the dandelion, gently pressed it
into the dictionary and grinned happily at me. “We were perhaps the only people who would press
such a sorry-looking weed.” Though decades have passed, I often recall our walk in the yard. Her
smile and her words of wisdom have stayed with me and shaped me into who I am now! And this is
perhaps the best gift that I’ve ever received in my life.
