第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中(A、B、C和D),选出选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Each year on February 2nd, there is a special festival called Groundhog Day (土拨鼠日 )' forecasting event in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. When it comes, people from around the world, including 5,000 in the small town today, watch this tongue-twisting(发饶舌的) small town for a sign from one groundhog that supposedly predicts when that year' s spring will arrive. If it's a cloudy day outside when the groundhog pops from its cave, then spring will arrive early that year. However, if it is sunny outside, the groundhog will supposedly be scared by its own shadow, hiding underground for six more weeks of cold weather. Of course, Punxsutawney Phil's prediction is no more able to guarantee the extended forecast than your local weatherman. ABC News reports that an analysis by the National Climate Data Center found that Phil's predictions are more often wrong than right. Philis is also found to have made some unpleasant predictions. Ever since 1887, he has predicted 99 extended winters and just 16 early springs. Nine of the years' predictions were unavailable, according to ABC. The holiday began as a German tradition in 18th century and became even more of a cultural phenomenon after the 1993 film Groundhog Day starring Bill Murray. Punxsutawney Phil has become a celebrity in his own right. Each year, the fatter animal with long teeth is watched by millions as he emerges from a cave in the town he is named after. Phil has become so beloved by the town that he actually lives in the local library with his “wife" Phyllis. Taking inspiration from the hard state of Bill Murray’s character in the classic film, Yahoo contributor Owen Rust says Groundhog Day is a good time to reflect on one’s routines. 21.The underlined word “pops” means “ ”. A. escapesB. hidesC. increasesD. appears 22.The reason why Phil's predictions aren't pleasing is that_____________. A. some of the predictions were unavailable B. Phil wants to do that for fun C. Phil likes to make unpleasant predictions D. he has predicted more late springs 23.How does Punxsutawney Phil become a celebrity? A. By an accident. B. From people's life improving. C. By his own attractive force D. From much money raised by the town. 24. Which does this passage mainly talk about? A. The National Climate Data Center B. Groundhog Day weather forecasting C. A tongue-twisting small town D. A German tradition B Chinese Language and Culture Day Camp July 25-29, 2014 Monday-Friday, 9:00 a.m. --- 3:30 p. m.

Indeed, for many of the poorest regions of the world, it remains the next big thing梖inally becomes globally available. And that is a good thing7, because the TV revolution is changing lives for the better. Across the developing world, around 45% of families had a TV in 1995; by 2005 the number had climbed above 60%. That is some way behind the U.S. ,where there are more TVs than people, and where people now easily get access to the Internet. Five million more families in sub-Saharan Africa will get a TV over the next five years. In 2005 , after the fall of the Taliban(塔利班),which had banned TV, 1 in 5 Afghans had one. The global total is another 150 million by 2013—pushing the numbers to well beyond two thirds of families. Television’s most powerful effect will be on the lives of women. In India, researchers Robert Jensen and Emily Oster found that when TVs reached villages, women were more likely to go to the market without their husbands’ approval and less likely to want a boy rather than a girl. They were more likely to make decisions over child health care. TV is also a powerful medium for adult education. In the Indian state of Gujarat, Chitrageet is a popular show that plays Bollywood songs with words in Gujarati on the screen. Within six months, viewers had made a small but significant improvement in their reading skills. Too much TV has been associated with violence, overweight and loneliness. However, TV is having a positive influence on the lives of billions worldwide. 29. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Americans used to get access to the Internet easily. B. The world’s TV sets will total 150 million by 2013. C. 45% of families in the developing countries had a TV in 2005. D. Over two thirds of families in the world will have a TV by 2013. 30. The author intends to ____________. A. encourage people to improve their reading skills B. persuade women to become more independent C. stress the advantages of TV to people’s lives D. introduce the readers some websites such as Google 31. What would be the best title for the passage? A.TV Will Rule the World B. TV Will Better the World C. TV Will Disturb the WorldD.TV Will Remain in World D Driving a car is not just handling controls and judging speed and distance. It requires you to predict what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected. When alcohol is consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant (抑制药), damaging eyesight, judgment and co-ordination(协调), slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even below the drink driving link, driving will be affected. Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain. Absorption rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the body is a very slow process and it is not possible to speed it up with any measures like taking a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee. The present Road Traffic Ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration is: ● 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of blood; or ● 22 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath; or ● 67 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of urine (尿液). Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence or are being suspected of drink driving will be tested. Any driver found drinking beyond the limit will be charged. The driver declared guilty may be fined a maximum of HK $25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison and punished for 10 driving-offence points; or temporarily banned from driving. The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens (样本) for breath, blood or urine tests without good excuse. Drink driving is a criminal offence(违法犯罪行为). Be a responsible driver, think before you drink. For the safety of yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol. 32. The first paragraph is mainly about ________. A. the introduction of driving skills B. the damage of drinking to your body C. the effect of drinking on driving D. the process of alcohol being absorbed 33. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to “________”. A. alcohol B. absorptionC. blood D. process 34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Drinking below the drink driving limit has no effect on driving. B. Alcohol is taken in more quickly when drunk with fruit juice. C. Having a cup of tea helps to get rid of alcohol from the body. D. 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of breath is below the drink limit. 35. A driver suspected of (被怀疑) drink driving ________. A. should provide specimens for testing B. will be forbidden to drive for 3years C. will be punished for 10 driving-offence points D. should pay a maximum fine of HK $25,000 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 SWe are not suggesting that you can reach a permanent state called “happiness” and remain there. But there are many ways to turn the path of anxiety, anger, and sadness into a state of happiness. Here are four ideas to get you started. 36 . 1. Laugh out loud. Just expecting a happy, funny event can raise levels of pleasure-causing hormones (荷尔蒙) and lower production of stress hormones. Researchers at the University of California tested 16 men who all agreed they thought a certain videotape was funny. Half were told three days in advance they would watch it. 37 . When they actually watched the video, their levels of stress hormones dropped greatly, while their levels of pleasure-causing hormones rose 27 percent. 2. Do one thing at a time. Edward Suarez, professor of medical psychology at Duck, found that people who do several things at the same time are more likely to have high blood pressure. 38 Instead of talking on the phone while cleaning the kitchen, sit down in a comfortable chair and turn your entire attention over to the conversation. 3. 39 Although relationships help take away stress sometimes you need time to recharge and reflect on your own. Take yourself out to lunch or to a movie, or simply spend an afternoon reading at home, or looking through books in a bookstore. 4. Practice mindfulness ____40 Instead of worrying about your check-up tomorrow while having dinner with your family, focus on the here and now---food, the company, and the conversation. A. Take care of the soul. B. Choose the ones that work for you. C. Focus on the present. D. Take that finding seriously. E. Find a quiet place near your house and make it your secret place to escape. F. They started experiencing biological changes right away. G. Spend time alone.第三部分:英语知识运用 (共两节, 满分45分)第一节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出可以填入空白处的选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 注意:将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。Millionaire Peter became blind because of an illness.
