From my second grade on, there was one event I feared every year: the piano recital(獨(dú)奏演唱會(huì)). A recital 36 I had to practice a boring piece of music and perform before strangers. Each

22、 year I would ask my father if I could skip the recital “just this once”. And each year he would shake his head, saying something about building 37 and working toward a goal. One recent Sunday I stood in church, video camera in hand, and 38 my 68-year-old father play the piano in his very fi

23、rst recital. My father had longed to play music since childhood, but his family was poor and couldn’t 39 lessons. He could have gone on regretting it, 40 too many of us do. But he wasn’t stuck in the past. When he retired three years ago, he 41 his church music director to take him as 42

24、 . For a moment after my father sat down at the keyboard, he stared down at his fingers. Has he forgotten the 43 ? I worried. But then came the beautiful melody (旋律). And I 44 he had been doing what music teachers always stress: 45 the notes and pretend the others aren’t there. “I’m 4

25、6 of him for starting something new at his age,” I said to my son Jeff. “Yeah, and doing it so 47 ,” Jeff added. With his first recital, my father taught me more about self-confidence and the life goal than all the words he used those 30-plus years ago. 36.A. reflected B. meant C.

29、ver half of the high school boys and two-thirds of the girls never shower after sports at school. Researchers suggest students dont want to sweat 48 take a shower, so they are less active. The researchers questioned almost 4,000 children. Lead researcher Dr Gavin said he was surprised 49 how r

30、arely students showered. He said children were getting poor health because of less exercise. He said: " 50 the unwillingness to shower is a barrier（障礙）to playing sport, we need to do something to promote activity at schools." 51 , the BBC says the study did not look at the exact reasons 52

31、 students do not shower. Maybe there are some other reasons. Undressing in front of 53 may be too much for some children. A spokeswoman for a health organisation said children worry about their body image. She said schools had 54 role to play in changing attitudes. She said schools should en

32、courage students to do physical activity and let 55 know they need to shower after. Part Ш Reading Comprehension (30 marks) Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,

33、 C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage. A Regarded as one of the English languages most gifted poets, John Keats wrote poetry that concentrated on imagery, human nature, and philosophy. Although Keats didnt receive much formal literary educati

34、on, his own studies and passion brought him much success. Additionally, his own life situation influenced his poetry greatly. Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower, middle-class family, the young John didnt attend a private school, but went to a public one. His teachers and his family

35、s friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies. After his fathers death in the early 1800s, followed by his mothers passing due to tuberculosis (肺結(jié)核), he began viewing life differently. He wanted to escape the world and did so by readi

36、ng anything he could get his hands on. At around the age of 16, the teenage John Keats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor. However, his literary appetite had taken too much of his fancy, especially with his addiction to the poetry of Ehmund Spenser. He was able

37、 to have his first full poem published in the Examiner in 1816, entitled O Solitude! If I Must With Thee Dwell. Within two months in 1817, Keats had written an entire volume of poetry, but was sharply criticized by a magazine. However, the negative response didnt stop his pursuit of rhythm. Jo

38、hn Keats next work was Endymion, which was published in May 1818. The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boys hope to overcome the limitations of being human. Following Engymion, however, he tried something more narrative-based and

39、wrote Isabella. During this time, John Keats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life experiences. He would have to have the "knowledge" associated with his poems. His next work was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that he learned. However, a bout (發(fā)作) with tuber

40、culosis while visiting Italy would keep him from his work and eventually take his life in 1821. 56. John Keats attitude towards life changed because of________. A. his early education from school B. the criticism of a magazine C. Edmund Spensers poetry D. the deaths of his

44、 young. B When Jeff Sparkman draws his cartoon superheroes with colored pencils, he often has to ask other people to tell him what color his masked men turned out to be because hes color-blind. Now, a new smart phone application (app) can help him figure out what colors hes using and how the pictu

45、re looks to most everyone else. The DanKam app, available for iPhone and Android for $2.99, is an application that turns the vague colors that one percent of the population with color-blindness sees into the "true" colors as everyone else sees them. In America, an estimated 32 million color-blind

46、Americans—95% are males—can soon have their life improved. “DanKam takes the stream of data coming in through the phones camera and changes the colors slightly so they fall within the range that people who are color-blind see,”developer Dan Kaminsky told CNET. He came up with the idea after watchin

47、g the 2009 film Star Trek with a color-blind friend. It was then that he got to know more about colorblindness like its varying types and degrees. A vast majority, for instance, have trouble seeing red or green due to a genetic defect(遺傳缺陷). Blue-yellow colorblindness, however, is rarer and develo

48、ps later in life because of aging, illness or head injuries, etc. He started experimenting with one of the most common representations of points in the RGB color model. What the DanKam app attempts to do is to clean up the color space of the image or video signal so that colors can be visible to tho

49、se suffering from viewing problems. “You can adjust the app to fit your needs. There is a range and not everyone who is color-blind sees things the same.” Says Kaminsky. Sparkman, a copy editor at CNET, tried out the app and was pleased with the results. "It would be useful for dressing for a job i

50、nterview," he said. But using it for his art is “the most practical application." It worked well on LED and other lights on electronic gadgets, which means Sparkman can now identify the power light on his computer display as green. 61. According to the first two paragraphs, we can know that DanKam

51、 ___________. A. is designed to help people with colorblindness B. can turn vague colors into real ones C. is a phone used to help drawing pictures D. appeared in the movie Star Trek 62. How does DanKam’s app work? A. It puts LED and other lights on electronic gadgets. B. It s

55、still have scars (傷疤) on my knees from my childhood run-ins with various wheeled devices. Admittedly, I was a foolish kid, but I’m glad I didn’t spend my childhood trapped indoors to protect me from any injury. “That which does not kill us makes us stronger.” But parents can’t handle it when teenag

56、ers put this theory into practice. And now technology has become the new field for the age-old battle between adults and their freedom-seeking kids. Locked indoors, unable to get on their bicycles and hang out with their friends, teens have turned to social media and their mobile phones to gossip a

57、nd socialize with their friends. What they do online often mirrors what they might otherwise do if their mobility weren’t so heavily restricted (限制) in the age of helicopter parenting. Social media and smartphones have become so popular in recent years because teens need a place to call their own. T

58、hey want the freedom to explore their identity and the world around them. Instead of climbing out of windows, they jump online. As teens have moved online, parents have projected their fears onto the Internet, imagining all the potential dangers that youth might face. Rather than helping teens dev

59、elop strategies (策略) to deal with public life and the potential risks of interacting with others, fearful parents have focused on tracking, monitoring and blocking. These approaches don’t help teens develop the skills they need to manage complex social situations. “Protecting” kids may feel like the

60、 right thing to do, but it denies teens the chances of learning as they come of age in a technology-soaked world. The key to helping youth in the modern digital life isn’t more restrictions. It’s freedom — plus communication. Urban theorist Jane Jacobs used to argue that the safest neighborhoods we

61、re those where communities collectively took interest in and paid attention to what happened on the streets. Safety didn’t come from surveillance (監(jiān)視) cameras or keeping everyone indoors but from a collective willingness to watch out for one another and be present as people struggled. The same is tr

62、ue online. What makes the digital street safe is when teens and adults collectively agree to open their eyes and pay attention, communicate and work together to deal with difficult situations. Teens need the freedom to wander the digital street, but they also need to know that caring adults are beh

63、ind them and supporting them wherever they go. The first step is to turn off the tracking software. Then ask your kids what they’re doing when they’re online — and why it’s so important to them. 66. When he was a child, the writer ______. A. became disabled B. spent much time outdoor C. alway

64、s stayed at home D. was ignored by his parents 67. Teens go online mainly because ______. A. online games mirror real life B. they want to fight against their parents C. online experiences make them strong D. they need a space of their own 68. By mentioning “helicopter parenting” (Paragra

65、ph 3), the writer means parents ______. A. remove any hidden dangers their kids may face B. use helicopters to track their kids C. prevent their kids from going to school D. protect their kids too much 69. According to the passage, helicopter parents may make kids ______. A. lose the chan

66、ces of learning B. handle complex social situations well C. adapt to the digital world quickly D. develop strategies to deal with public life 70. The main idea of the passage is that ______. A. kids should be given freedom to deal with online risks B. safe neighborhoods come from joint efforts of all C. the digital street is a threat to kids’ safety D. kids should be warned against potential dangers in society Part IV Writing (45 marks) Sectio
