It was a hot summer day    1    found me running down the street with a dollar in my sweaty hand. The closer I got to Sam & Joe’s Stationery Store, the more excited I was. After all, a dollar was a     2      sum for a boy aged 10 in 1961.

Out of    3    , I opened the door and got a blast of cold air that instantly cooled

me off. I was in a place of pure happiness. Sam & Joe’s had              4              all—books, candy, toys, baseball cards, puzzles and games. I went straight to the bar and ordered a bottle

of soda. There I sat, considering my next              5              .

Books always came first. I     6      five titles. Next came the candy, rows and rows of it. I chose five candy bars, which brought my total to 25 cents. Then a bottle of cold orange juice, a bag of chips and a pack of Ted Williams baseball cards. After paying the clerk, I     7      had 5 cents.

I hurried to my backyard, where an apple tree patiently waited for me. There, sitting in the shade     8     its strong trunk(树干), I read my books, ate my candy and

drank my orange juice.

As I sat in my own    9     heaven, I started thinking about having more. That’s when a fantastic life-changing idea      10    into my mind: If I could get more money, I could buy more books I liked, buy anything I wanted. That’s how it all started.

It was a dark June morning. There was a storm at sea. A ship had been  11      on a low rock off the shores of the Farne Islands. It had been broken in two by the waves, half of which had been washed away. The other half lay      12    , and those of the passengers who were still alive were clinging to it.

On one of the islands was a lighthouse, and there, all through that     13      night, Grace Darling had listened. Grace was the daughter of the lighthouse keeper, and she had lived by the sea as long as she could remember. In the darkness of the night,

14      the noise of the winds and waves, she heard screams and wild cries. When daylight came, she could see the destroyed ship a mile away, with the     15      waters all around it.

“We must try to save them!” she cried.

“It is of no use, Grace,” said her father. “We cannot reach them.” He was an old man, and he knew the force of the mighty waves.

“We cannot stay here and see them die,” said Grace. “We must     16    try to

save them.”

In a few minutes they were ready. They    17    in the heavy lighthouse boat. Grace pulled one oar(桨), and her father the other, and they made     18      toward

the ship. But it was hard rowing against such a sea, and it seemed as though they would never reach the place.

At last they were close to the rock, and now they were in greater danger than before. The mighty waves broke against the boat, and it would have been dashed in pieces, had it not been for the strength and skill of the brave girl. But after many trials, Grace’s father climbed upon the ship,     19      Grace herself held the boat. Then one by one the worn-out passengers were helped on board. It was all that the girl could do to keep the      20     from being washed away, or broken upon the sharp edges of the rock.

 


 

“Great news!” I said to Mom, loud and happy. “We can go to Disney Resort!” “Surely we can,” she replied, “    21    it’s open and we have enough money.” “Look, I got two free tickets!” I said with excitement. Then I showed her the

22    message that I just received on my mobile phone.

“Again … This link is really strange,” my mom said, after reading the message. “How can you     23    ? And why ‘again’?”

“I receive these kinds of messages all the time,” she told me, “most of    24 include a strange link. What we should do is just pay no attention to it.” She      25 some Chinese characters and said: “Look at this character, it’s a funny mistake. Huge organizations seldom make such mistakes.” My mother     26     to me that this message was not only sent to one person, but to everyone in the neighborhood. No one would get a free ticket     27    .

In the end, I deleted the message without clicking on the link, which is a safe

28      to dealing with these spam messages.

My mom enjoys watching TV news, so she knows a lot about these kinds of things. She also told me that even phone numbers can be disguised (伪装的) – when you see 110 or a bank number, you cannot trust it     29    .

One can never be     30    careful, but I still dream of going to Disney Resort

some day.

二、阅读理解(共 13 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 26 分)

Have your parents ever told you any strange or scary things about protecting your eyes? For example, they might have said that you’d go blind from reading in the dark, but you could make up for it by eating a lot of carrots.

This is just  one of the wrong ideas you  may have heard of. Here are three

mistakes that people often make about eyes. Let’s take a look.

Can eating carrots improve your eyesight?

Carrots are rich in vitamin A, which is essential for our eyes’ general health. Vitamin A helps the eyes to make light into signals, allowing people to see in low light conditions.

However, eating more carrots doesn’t help you see better. A certain minimum amount will help, but a large number of carrots will not give you superhuman vision or allow you to get rid of your glasses.

 


 

 

 

If your parents have bad eyesight, will you have bad eyesight, too?

Myopia (近视) can be passed from parents to children.

A study by the American Optometric Association found that if both parents are myopic, there’s a 33 to 60 percent chance that the child is. For children who have one parent with myopia, the chance is 23 to 40 percent, and it’s down to 6 to 15 percent for kids with non-myopic parents.

So no matter how bad your parents’ eyesight is, you still have a chance of having good eyesight.

Is it true that people who are color blind can’t see colors?

Color blindness doesn’t mean that someone can’t see colors at all, like a black and white movie. Most commonly, it means that someone has difficulty telling certain colors apart, usually green and red or blue and yellow.

Color blindness is usually a condition caused by not having color cone cells or the cells not working. If the cells don’t respond in the right way to differences in wavelengths of light, color blindness occurs.

There are different levels of color blindness. Some people only cannot tell the difference between colors in dim light, while others have difficulty in any light. In the

most serious form of color blindness, everything is seen in shades o f gray.

31. This text is most probably taken from a              .

A. doctors’ notebook              B. medical magazine

C. product advertisement              D. newspaper article

32. What can we infer about a child with myopia?

A. Either of his parents is myopic

B. Both of his parents are myopic

C. His parents’ eyesight may not be bad

D. Myopia can be passed from his parents to him

33. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Eating carrots does no good to your eyesight

B. People who are color blind can’t see green and red

C. Not all the people with color blindness have color cone cells

D. People with color blindness don’t have difficulty in bright light

Many shopping malls now have areas in the middle with “VR Experience Area” signs on them. You may have entered one or two out of curiosity or you may simply think it is just another piece of useless technology. But whatever your reaction is, one thing is for sure – VR, or virtual reality, is going to be a bigger part of our lives in the near future.

2016 has seen the introduction of many fancy products in the VR world, including Microsoft’s HoloLens and Samsung’s Gear VR. All of them offer an interesting look at the new “realities” and new opportunities that VR brings.

But they’re clearly still in the early days of a technology that is going to get a lot better. And 2017 is going to be the year in which VR technology really starts to get popular. For a start, using VR will become normal in 2017. In fact, Microsoft and

 


 

 

 

Intel have already started to discuss their plans for simpler and less expensive VR

headsets.

“The idea of virtual reality will stop being a sci-fi idea, and instead it will turn into an industry of real products used as ways to show off imagination,” said Andrew Abedian, a game designer at US VR company Survios.

It is also expected that VR products will start to play a part in more common and real-life fields like fashion and film. For example, to enjoy the excitement and energy of the front row experience at a fashion show, you’ll no longer have to go to the show in person and actually sit there. Instead, many people will be able to have the experience by simply putting on a VR headset. You can also expect VR mirrors and fitting rooms sooner rather than later. “This is an especially good opportunity for brands looking to offer very personalized experiences,” said Roy DeYoung from PMX Agency, a US-based marketing company.

As time goes by, there will be less and less discussion about whether or not people will accept VR technology. Now it’s just a question of when.

34. Which statement about VR is supported by the passage?

A. Nowadays VR is popular among people when they are shopping

B. VR is going to stop using a sci-fi idea to create real products

C. Simpler and less expensive VR headsets have already come into the market

D. VR is sure to make a difference to people’s daily life

35. Which of the following fields is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. film and game              B. fashion show

C. medicine and healthcare              D. sales and marketing

36. The purpose of this passage is to              .

A. inform readers of a technology              B. advertise a product

C. state a science report              D. entertain readers

Warren Edward Buffett was born on August 30, 1930 to his father Howard, a stockbroker-turned-Congressman. The only boy, he was the second of three children, and displayed an amazing aptitude for both money and business at a very early age. His neighbors still remember his special ability to calculate columns of numbers off the top of his head - a thing Warren still amazes business colleagues with today.

At only six years old, Buffett purchased 6 bottles of Coca Cola from his grandfather’s grocery store for twenty five cents and resold each of the bottles for a nickel, pocketing a five cent profit. While other children of his age were playing hopscotch and jacks, Warren was making money. Five years later, Buffett took his step into the world of high finance.

At eleven years old, he purchased three shares of Cities Service Preferred at $38 per share for both himself and his older sister, Doris. Shortly after buying the stock, it fell to just over $27 per share. A frightened but strong Warren held his shares until they rebounded to $40. He immediately sold them - a mistake he would soon come to regret. Cities Service shot up to $200. The experience taught him one of the basic lessons of investing: patience is a virtue.

 


 

 

 

In 1947, at the age of seventeen, Warren Buffett graduated from High School. It was never his intention to go to college. He had already made $5,000 delivering newspapers. His father had other plans, and urged his son to attend the Wharton Business School at the University of Pennsylvania. Buffett stayed two years, complaining that he knew more than his professors. He was finally persuaded to apply to Harvard Business School, which, in  the worst admission  decision in history, rejected him as “too young”. Slighted, Warren applied to Columbia where famed investors Ben Graham and David Dodd taught - an experience that would forever

change his life.

37. By telling Buffett’s childhood stories, the writer intends to tell us that              .

A. interest is the best teacher

B. a hard early life is a big wealth

C. Buffett has a gift for finance and business

D. Buffett is good at communication and calculation

38. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. Buffett resold Coca Cola from the store at five cents per bottle B. Buffett purchased the shares for all the members of his family C. Buffett always made wise decisions when he was young

D. Buffett turned a deaf ear to his father when graduating from High School

39. What would be talked about in the following paragraph?

A. Buffett’s admission to Harvard Business School

B. Buffett’s education at Columbia Business School

C. How investors Ben Graham and David Dodd taught

D. How Buffett changed his intention to go to college

Once upon a time, when you first took part in a youth sporting event, your parents probably weren’t expecting you to become a professional player. They signed you up for basketball, football or gymnastics in hopes that you might learn lessons about winning gentlemanly, losing with dignity and insisting on it when things got hard. Yes, playing games is good exercise, but it is the life lessons that matter most.

For too many of us, instead of trying to improve our minds and spirits, we began judging progress only by the size of our muscles or the numbers on a weighing machine. The thought that playing games is about greater life lessons and the building of character has been further  undermined by headlines about professional players who abuse steroids, run into trouble with the law and demand ever-bigger paychecks.

And yet there’s still strong evidence that “sports  strongly improve certain personal qualities, things like respecting your opponent, responsibility, persistence and self-discipline,” says Angela Lumpkin, PhD, professor  of  health, sport and exercise sciences at the University of Kansas. And that’s true for players of any age.

The advantages of taking part in a sport can spread into your professional life, too. In basketball, for example, “getting everyone to play the right role on the court is the key to success,” says Alan Arlt, founder of the Life Time Fitness basketball program Ultimate Hoops. “That is certainly useful in the business world, where everyone understands their role in the organization.”

 


 

 

 

Career benefits notwithstanding, playing games like soccer or engaging in individual pursuits such as martial arts can also improve your emotional well-being. In 2005, 89 percent of Canadian adults who participated in sports reported a life satisfaction level of at least 7 on a scale of 1 to 10, compared with only 75 percent of nonparticipants.

“In sporting events, you go through good times and bad, often in the period of two hours,” says former NBA head coach Flip Saunders. “Do you have the calm manner to settle yourself down, or do you totally lose it and get thrown out of the game, which hurts both you and your team? All of that on-court experience has a real effect on how you deal with real-life situations.”

40. What would parents expect when their children joined in sports?

A. To win as many games as possible

B. To improve their health C. To make more friends D. To build their character

41. The underlined word “undermined” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by               .

A. discovered              B. weakened              C. improved              D. repeated

42. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. People who are adults can not improve their personal qualities

B. People still hold the idea that sports can only keep us fit

C. People taking part in sports have a higher life satisfaction level

D. People playing basketball will certainly succeed in the business world

43. What is the best title of the passage?

A. Ways to succeed in the future

B. Ways to deal with real-life situations

C. Advantages of improving minds and spirits

D. Advantages of taking part in sports

It’s hard to describe the sight of the cheese rolling. Players launch     44 (they) down the near vertical Cooper’s Hill, trying to catch a 3.5kg cheese that has been thrown down the hill. The first player to the bottom of the hill wins the cheese! Unfortunately, a few     45      (win) have claimed not to even like cheese. The origins of this tradition began in the nineteenth century but we don’t know much more than that. As with many local festivities, it wasn’t officially recorded.

The event was cancelled in 2009.     46      (surprise), this was not out of worry for the players’ safety but due to fears for the joy of the audience. Huge crowds nearing 15,000 people turned up to watch the event, far more than could be safely accommodated on the hill.     47    , an ‘unofficial’ cheese rolling was planned instead, and it is this ‘unofficial’ event that has happened ever since.

 


 

 

 

This year, the cheese rolling attracted crowds of about 5,000, a much more manageable number.     48      no one has ever died during the cheese rolling (to my knowledge), it is certainly not a safe     49      (compete)! Each year there are several injuries, the worst year being 1997 with 33 players being treated for     50      (break) bones. It isn’t only the runners who are at risk. One year a rogue cheese knocked over an audience member!
