B
It was a cold night in Washington, D.C., and I was heading back to the hotel when a man approached me. He asked me for some money so he could get something to eat. I’d read the signs: “Don’t give money to beggars.” So I shook my head and kept marching.
I wasn’t prepared for a reply, but he said, “I really am homeless and I really am hungry! You can come with me and watch me eat!” But I kept on marching.
The incident bothered me for the rest of the week. I had money in my pocket and it wouldn’t have killed me to hand over a dollar or two even if he had been lying. On a freezing cold night, I still assumed the worst of a fellow human being.
Flying back to Anchorage, I couldn’t help thinking of him. I tried to seek excuses for my failure to help by assuming government agencies, churches and charities were there to feed him. Besides, you’re not supposed to give money to beggars.
Somewhere over Seattle, I started to write my weekly garden column for The Anchorage Daily News. Out of the blue, I came up with an idea. Bean’s Café, the soup kitchen in Anchorage, feeds hundreds of hungry Alaskans every day. Why not try to get all my readers to plant one row in their gardens devoted to Bean’s?
Before long my idea took off. People would fax me or call when they took something in. Those who only grew flowers donated them. Food for the spirit. And relief for my conscience.
As more and more people started working with the Plant a Row concept, many companies gave free seeds to customers and displayed the logo, which also arose in national gardening publications. Row markers with the Plant a Row logo were distributed to gardeners to set apart their “Row for the Hungry”.
It is unexpected that millions of Americans are threatened by hunger. If every gardener in America—and we’re seventy million strong—plants one row for the hungry, we can lower the number of neighbors who don’t have enough to eat. Maybe then I will stop feeling guilty about abandoning a hungry man I could have helped.
24. Why did the author turn down the beggar’s request?
A. He was previously reminded not to do so. B. He was eager to march back to the hotel. C. He thought that it was beyond his duty. D. He was short of money at that moment.
25. Which of the following is the closest to the underlined phrase “took off” (Paragraph 6)?
A. We eventually took off at 11 o’clock and landed in Seattle safely. B. To take off pounds, you have to cut down the number of calories. C. On hearing the news, he took off at once and headed back to the hotel. D. His business has really taken off owing to his advanced management. 26. What did the author do after the beggar’s incident?
A. He felt guilty but couldn’t help him. B. He started a project to help the hungry.
C. He ran a blue kitchen to supply the hungry with soup. D. He still supposed it was unwise to give money to beggars. 27. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. Plant a Row for the Hungry B. Lend a Hand to Beggars C. Never Hesitate to Help Others D. Plan a Gardening Project
C
In 2013 alone at least 20,000 African elephants were killed for their teeth. In South Africa over the last two years more than 2,200 rhinos were killed for their horns. These numbers are alarming, because current rates of illegal hunting are faster than birth rates, which could lead to extinction for these ecologically important creatures in their environment. Indeed, some elephant and rhino populations are on track to be locally extinct within the next decade.
If you are reading this, you may already be aware of these facts. But you might not know that wildlife trafficking(走私) not only threatens the existence of elephants and rhinos but is also leading to extinction of other species, such as tigers, tortoises, sea turtles—and the world’s most trafficked mammal (哺乳动物)—pangolins.
Pangolins are the only mammals that are entirely covered in tough scales (鳞), which makes them look very strong. But actually they are endangered mammals. There are eight different species of pangolins, four in Asia and four in Africa, and all are threatened with extinction. Although pangolins are protected throughout most of the countries where they live, high demand in East Asia, where the delicious pangolin meat is considered a delicacy and where their scales are used in traditional medicines, is driving an illegal trade in both live animals and pangolin parts. The number of pangolin trafficking is shocking. Experts believe that over the last 10 years more than 1 million pangolins were taken from the wild. It is estimated that between 40,000 and 81,250 pangolins were killed for the illegal trade in 2013 alone.
In February, the United States released a plan to deal with wildlife trafficking, which lays out the steps we will take to fight the illegal trade in wildlife, including pangolins. We are strengthening the carrying out of the plan; building international cooperation and contribution to protect wildlife; raising awareness to drive down the demand that is fueling the illegal trade.
Get involved and remember World Wildlife Day (March 3) by spreading the plan. Use social media and tell everyone that now is the time to get serious about wildlife crime and end the demand that threatens species, big and small, from the huge elephant to the shy pangolin.
28. How many endangered creatures are mentioned in the passage?
A.4. B.5. C.6. D.7. 29. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?
A. Eight species of pangolins live on the same continent.
B. Pangolins are not protected in most of their natural habitats.
C. The scales of pangolins can be used as an ingredient for cooking.
D. High demand contributes to the illegal trade of pangolins in East Asia. 30. What can we know about the plan released by the US?
A. Social media will be used to spread World Wildlife Day. B. Whether the plan will be worked out remains to be seen.
C. The US will work together with other countries to protect wildlife. D. High demand contributes to the illegal trade of pangolins in East Asia. 31. What is the author’s intention of writing the passage?
A. To inform us something about World Wildlife Day. B. To raise awareness of protecting endangered wildlife. C. To explain why pangolins are illegally traded in East Asia.
D. To show how the United States is to fight the illegal trade in wildlife.
D
When going through major life changes, like changing careers, I would change the people with whom I spent the most time. We’ve all gone through periods when the people in our lives have changed—graduation, moving to a new city, getting a new job, joining a new club, etc. I don’t think I need to convince you just how much influence other people can have over your identity. If you’ve ever experienced a major switch in your people environment, then you know that you changes as well.
Most people don’t make these choices consciously (意识到地) though. You might consciously decide to spend more time with a certain friend, or you may ask someone out on a date to begin a new relationship. But few people choose their existing friendships deliberately.
There’s no “getting rid of people”. People are always dropping into and out of each other’s lives. Associations grow into friendships, and friendships fade into associations. You don’t get rid of anyone. The truth is that in order to make room for new people and new experiences, you may need to loosen up some of your existing connections.
What about loyalty (忠诚)? Shouldn’t you always be loyal to your friends? Once you have a close friend, even if their influence on you is slightly harmful, shouldn’t you stick by them?
Loyalty to a friend sometimes means having to let go. It means being loyal to their highest and best as well. If someone is destroying his health by smoking, for example, you aren’t showing loyalty by smoking right along with him. True loyally sometimes requires that you break damagingconnections, get yourself back on solid ground, and then decide what you can really do to help your friend.
It can take a lot of courage to tell someone, “I’m sorry, but I can't have you in my life anymore.\though this might seem like a selfish act at times, it's often the best thing for the other person too. If a relationship is holding you back in some way, understand that it s also hurting the other person. For example, if you work for a violent boss, your acceptance of that situation is considered to be silent approval, encouraging your boss to continue to behave violently.
32. When experiencing major life changes, people may_________.
A. join a new social community B. influence their friends around C. choose their friendships purposely D. have their people environment changed 33. What docs the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Everyone has at least one friend.
B. It is unnecessary to make new friends.
C. Friendship still exists though there’s less connection. D. You ought to treat your old and new friend equally. 34. What is the author's opinion on the loyalty to friends?
A. Never betray your close friends whatever happens. B. Correct their mistakes while you guard their goodness. C. Stick by your friends even though they do harm lo you. D. Break up with your friends immediately if they smoke. 35. How should we behave when employed by a violent boss?
A. We should accept what we are told to do. B. We should stay silent and be in favor of it. C. We should bravely disobey him if he is wrong. D. We should give our boss courage to continue. 第二节（共5小題；毎小題2分,满分10分）

Eyes can speak
Much meaning can be conveyed, clearly, with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak.
36 In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not for too long. And if he senses that you are staring at him, he may feel uncomfortable.
The same is true in our daily life. If you are stared at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. 37 Eyes do speak, right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. 38 If a man stares at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to look away from her, his intentions are obvious. He wishes to attract her attention and let her know that he is admiring her.
However, when two people are engaged in a conversation, the speaker will only look into the listener's eyes from time to time to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking. 39 If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking as if trying to control you, you will feel awkward. A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim. He wrongly believes that looking straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication. 40
Actually, eye contact should be made based on specific relationships and situations. A. On the contrary, it will give him away. B. Do you have such kind of experience? C. That's what normal eye contact is all about.
D. Actually, continuous eye contact is limited to lovers only. E. After all, nobody likes lo be stared at for quite a long time.
F. But things are different when it comes to staring at the opposite sex. G. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel annoyed at being stared at that way. 第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）

I was 11 when you were born, and in your first few years l often looked after you, bathed and dressed you and took you out for walks. I have 41 memories of your childhood. Of 42 you up as a “rock star”. Of watching you dance 43 nightclothes. Of your insistence that I make your school lunch 44 . I put so much more peanut butter on your 45 than anyone else. Of the 46 phone call we ever had—an echo(共鸣）of my own university years---when you wanted to 47 university and study dance.
Since we have grown up, I have lived through you, although you may not know it. You had the opportunity I so
48 wanted but never got—to train in the dancing ans. 1 encouraged our parents to support you because I have always 49 how my life would be if they hadn't chosen a(n) 50 career path for me, their eldest child.
I know you have 51 to hunt for work and confidence, and that you probably wonder sometimes if you
made the right choice. 52 , 1 am happy for you and proud that 1 played some small role in helping you to 53 a dream.
There’s a 54 between us now. It has grown since I first left home, and in the 55 I missed your teenage years. That 56 me greatly. I imagine that you believe we have very little in common—a 57 in the city and a biologist in West Africa—but in you I 58 some of my own dreams realized.
But beyond that, even at 12 or 13 I felt as much a mother to you as an older sister. So, on the rare 59 when we see each other, I want to know everything, from your concerns, hopes to delights.
I wish I, as an adult, could hold you at arm's 60 . I hope we can one day be sisters or friends again. I still make a tasty peanut butter sandwich for you. 41.

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式.
Hardly can you succeed 61 doing something perfectly the first lime you do it. 62 , when you do something for the first time, it is time to give up the idea of perfection.
I remember the first time I 63 (drive) a car in traffic after getting my driver's license. I was very nervous in that heavy traffic — my driving style showed that I wasn’t a very confident driver. Now I'm much
more 64 (experience) as a driver. 65 I still don't consider myself a perfect one，I'm much more confident behind the wheel than 66 Iwas when I started.
In general， 67 is useless to work hard for doing something perfectly when you do it for the first time. You are setting the bar so high that you just feel bad when you are 68 (able) to meet the level you have set.
Also, perfection is just another way 69 (delay), so trying to be perfect is just 70 waste of time. You should work hard for excellence instead.
