【題目】書面表達(dá)
This is a picture of a ballet dancer whose left foot looks shockingly different from the right one. Some even jokes that the left foot represents how elegant ballet dancers look. On the contrary, the right one reveals the nature of those dancers’ life. One can hardly imagine how much time and effort have been devoted to endless practice.
【寫作內(nèi)容】

【評分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)】
內(nèi)容完整,語言規(guī)范,語篇連貫,詞數(shù)適當(dāng)
【答案】
The dancer’s left foot is elegantly wrapped in her ballet shoe, tied to the ankle with a silk ribbon. The shoeless right foot, however, looks horribly different. Bruises and scars occupy every inch of her toes. (36 words)
I can only imagine the untold hardship the dancer must have endured for the endless hours of practice to look so glamorous on the stage. Likewise, behind every seemingly stunning success, there can be failures, disappointments, and embarrassments. When the whole world is crazy for JK Rowling’s Harry Potter stories, rarely do people know it was after the books had been turned down 12 times by the publisher that they finally came out. Nothing is difficult to a willing heart. However, when we admire others’ success, we should remember it is not from nowhere.
I have imagined the dancer to be my friend. I will, instead of telling her how awesome her dancing is, ask her to take good care of herself, for health is the real elegance of life. (130 words)

【題目】Beavers(河貍) are a very unique species in the world of nature and wildlife——they are architects. Their dams are fine examples of engineering.
A pair of beavers will build a dam, using branches, mud and stones, across a river. The water held back by the dam flows over the bank on either side of the river, flooding the nearby ground and forming a pond. At some point in the pond the beavers then build their home, which is called a lodge. This consists of a cone-shaped(錐狀的) pipe of branches and sticks of two to six feet in length held together with mud and stones, the top of which projects above the waterline. It serves as a shelter from the bad weather, a safety from enemies and a base for food supplies to be drawn upon in winter.
From an engineering point of view the lodge could hardly be improved. Not only does it contain a central room just above water level, which is accessible only through underwater tunnels, but it also has “walls”, one or more escape tunnels and an air hole at the top, which controls the temperature inside and gives air-conditioning. It is altogether a clever piece of construction, with all modern conveniences. It is, in fact, better protected against the effects of flooding than many human houses.
Trees are essential to beavers. They eat the bark on the upper branches. But they must first fell the trees, using their four front teeth. With these sharp tools, it takes only a few minutes to cut down a tree.
The engineering skill of beavers is to a large extent a result of their ability to use their front paws as hands. A female will carry her young held under her chin(下巴) with her front paws, walking on her hind legs. A similar method is used by all beavers when transporting stones or mud, although they also carry such materials on their broad flat trails. The fore-paws are also used for digging and for dragging heavier pieces of wood.
【1】Which of the following pictures best illustrates the beaver’s lodge?
A. B.
C. D.
【2】Which of the following sentences is Not the reason why trees are important to beavers?
A. They live on the barks on the upper branches of trees.
B. They use trees’ branches to build dams.
C. They build their lodge with the branches.
D. They us branches to transport mud and stones.
【3】The underlined word “fell” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.
A. move awayB. cut downC. cut upD. move about
【4】This text is mainly about ________.
A. the beaver’s lodge
B. the beaver’s engineering skills
C. the beaver’s dam
D. the beaver’s intelligence

Good news for giant panda lovers: The cute and cuddly creature has just been brought back from the brink of extinction.
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) downgraded the species from “endangered” to “vulnerable” as the union released its updated Red List on Sept 4 at Hawaii.
The downgrade came after IUCN data suggested that there were 1,864 giant pandas in the wild in China in 2014 — their population has grown by 17 percent in the decade leading up to 2014.
Chinese conservation efforts, including forest protection and reforestation, are considered to be the driving force behind the animal’s resurgence.
“It’s all about restoring the habitats,” Craig Hilton-Taylor, head of the IUCN Red List, told the BBC.
The number of panda reserves in China has also jumped to 67, from 13 in 1992. Nearly two-thirds of all wild pandas live in these reserves, according to the World Wildlife Fund.
“Just by restoring the panda’s habitat, that’s given them back their space and made food available to them,” Hilton-Taylor said.
A loss of habitats, on the contrary, was what caused the number of pandas to drop to just over 1,200 in the 1980s, Hilton-Taylor added.
Apart from giant pandas, the Tibetan Antelope has also moved from “endangered” to “near threatened”. According to a statement from IUCN, the animal’s numbers dwindled severely — dropping from around 1 million to an estimated 65,000-72,500 in the 1980s and early 1990s — due to commercial poaching. Rigorous(嚴(yán)格的) protection has since been enforced to protect the beasts and the population is now likely to be between 100,000 and 150,000.
Despite the improved statuses, wild animals like the giant panda and the Tibetan Antelope still face great challenges. The IUCN warned, for example, that ongoing threats from climate change could eliminate more than 35 percent of the panda’s bamboo habitat in the next 80 years, which would reverse the species recent gains.
【1】What does the underlined word in pagagraph 1 mean?
A. dangerous and threatened.B. safe and sound.
C. weak and easily hurt.D. normal and common.
【2】Which of the following can account for pandas’ living improvement?
A. Better climate.B. More built reserves.
C. Well restored habitats.D. Aroused public awareness.
【3】The passage is written in order to ________.
A. convinceB. informC. argue D advocate
【4】What does the last paragraph imply?
A. The climate will influence the threatened species.
B. We humans still have a long way to go to protect the endangered species.
C. Pandas will go extinct for lack of abundant food.
D. Habitats for giant pandas will decrease sharply.

【題目】閱讀理解
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項 (A 、B 、C 和 D )中,選出最佳選項。
In 1841, a book was published which astonished the world. It was called “Incidents of Travel in Central America, Chiapas and Yucatan”. The author John Loud Stephens had just returned from a long, difficult and dangerous journey through the thick rain forest of southern Mexico and Guatemala. He had once been there with Frederick Catherwood, an architect and artist, to search for the remains of a lost civilization known as the Mayas(瑪雅). Very little was known about the Mayas at that time, but Catherwood's drawing in the book showed incredible cities with temples, pyramids and other buildings as impressive as those of their northern neighbors, the Aztecs. These cities, however, were deserted. The inhabitants(居民) had disappeared almost a thousand years before.
Since that time, far more has been learned about this remarkable civilization. The Mayas had a highly-developed system of government and of agriculture, as well as an incredibly accurate system of measuring time. They were also wonderful engineers capable of moving huge blocks stone long distances and cutting them to accurate shapes and sizes.
And yet although the Mayas knew about the wheel, they never used it. Neither did they use metals other than copper. What is ever more surprising is that they suddenly abandoned many of their cities and built new ones in the jungle. Some time around AD 900, Mayan civilization collapsed(崩潰). By the year 1200, their last great capital, Chichen Itza, was deserted.
Who were these strange people and the even stranger gods they worshipped? What brought about their sudden and mysterious collapse? Some writers have tried to prove that the Mayas had contact with visitors from space and even that they themselves came from another planet. Some people believe that their civilization came to an end because the Mayas never developed a proper resistance to local germs and diseases. All we really know is that when the first Europeans appeared off their coast in 1517, this great and mysterious culture was only a memory.
(1)Stephen's book astonished the world because .
A.it was the first time people heard about Mayas
B.the Mayas were excellent builders and farmers
C.he had experienced so may difficulties to find this lost civilization
D.it described that the Mayas used to be an advanced civilization
(2)One of the most surprising findings about Mayas was that .
A.they developed accurate system measuring time
B.they knew how to build pyramids with stones
C.they deserted their cities and moved to new ones
D.they built cities which they never lived in
(3)At last Mayas disappeared from the world most probably in .
A.a thousand years before 1841
B.around AD 900
C.any year between 1200 and 1517
D.1200
(4)What brought about Mayan sudden collapse?
A.Tropical germs and diseases.
B.European conquest.
C.Mysterious force from outer space.
D.No one knows for sure.
