一、阅读理解
A
My sister was fond of traveling. Ever since graduating, she had been determined to organize a trip to an old temple. Since transporting fare was expensive, she decided to use a bicycle to cycle there not caring about the disadvantages. Her stubborn attitude was always her shortcoming. Once she made up her mind to do something, no one could persuade her to change her mind. Finally, we gave in as usual though we preferred to take a train. After we prepared everything, including the schedule, reliable weather forecast and the insurance, we began our trip.
Our journey was along a river flowing from a high altitude. Our pace was slow because the river frequently had many sharp bends through deep valleys, where the water seemed to boil. Just as I recorded in my journal, it was really a hard journey. But we also enjoyed great views. One night, I put my head on my pillow--a parcel of wool coats, and lay beneath the stars. When the flame in front of our cave went out at midnight, I found the sky so beautiful! 1. Which is the best title?
A. A Deep Cave

B
It is quite apparent that competition surrounds every aspect of human life whether in the United States or the Amazon rain forest.Without it we would not have grown into primates (灵长目动物)．Or we would probably still be struggling to sharpen a bronze tool while crawling around on four legs in search of meat.Without competition，Columbus wouldn't have discovered America and Edison would never have invented the light bulb.
The friendship，like all relationships between two people，involves competition.It isn't competition in a traditional sense because there are no goals to be scored and no prizes.Perhaps the ecological definition—the simultaneous (同时的) demand by two or more organisms for limited
environmental resources，such as nutrients, living space, or light—better explains it.
As in nature, high school life is governed by a set of laws，similar to a shortened version of Darwin's theory of evolution，overpopulation, and competition.There is an abundance of high school students and to distinguish them，ranking and categorizing (分类) take place.In high school, friendship coexists with competition even though at times the relationship is rough.In fact, in some circumstances, competition is too much of a burden for friendship to bear, causing it to fall apart.College admission is the final high school objective.Four years of hard work is to achieve good grades, and a student's fate is determined not only by these achievements, but by the records of thousands of other seniors trying to achieve similar recognition.
Nevertheless，by necessity，competition between students exists in all aspects of high school life.It sets and improves the standards in everything from sports to schoolwork. Healthy，friendly competition can have only benefits, but when it becomes too fierce, jealousy (妒忌) can tear friendship apart.
Yet, despite all this, without competition, we would be lost. 6．What does the ecological definition mainly explain?
A．How friends compete with each other. B．How to win the competition. C．What the result of competition is.
D．What competition exactly is. 7．According to the author, what causes the high school students to compete?
A．The number of them is too large. B．Friendship is a burden for them. C．They know the laws of nature well.
D．They are divided into different groups.
8．Which best describes the relationship of friendship and competition?
A．Friendship is always based on competition. B．The degree of competition is vital to friendship. C．Competition is terribly harmful to friendship. D．Competition is a result of lost friendship.
C
A troubled childhood and the fear that she’d give such a childhood to her own kids influenced a major decision for Shanna Dayton—She would not have children.
Her parents were alcoholics，and her dad was a binge eater (暴食症患者) who spent most of his time outside the home with his friends.When her dad was home，her parents would have violent fights in which her mom would attack him.He’d throw things around the house and punch holes in the walls.The Dayton sisters were never injured.But the intensity of Dayton’s experience and another tragedy as an adult made her decide not to bear children.
Her parents fought into her college years，she explained.After graduation，Dayton，then 22，moved in with her future husband.She and her parents didn’t talk for seven years.Dayton’s husband had mental health issues and，in their fifth year of marriage，things began to fall apart.He suggested

they try to save their relationship by having a child.It was the closest she’d come to considering having kids.“I did think about it，” Dayton said，“but having a baby would only bring more stress to the relationship.” He killed himself in 2009，and his death made her believe she’d made the right decision.
Today，Dayton is_repulsed_by alcohol.But she’s inherited (遗传) her dad’s bingeeating habit，which she fights daily.“I’m addicted to food，”she said.“There is no way I am willingly going to pass along these mental health issues to an innocent child，” Dayton added.She cited National Institutes of Health statistics that suggest there is a 50 to 60 percent chance that children inherit their parents’alcoholism.“My family and friends tell me that if I meet the right man I’ll change my mind，but the right man wouldn’t want to change me，” she said.“He would accept and respect me as who I am.”
9．What do we learn about Shanna Dayton’s childhood?
A．She often had violent fights with others as a child. B．Her mother often attacked her in her childhood. C．She spent her childhood with her parents alone. D．It is still having a passive influence on her life. 10．From Paragraph 3，we learn that Shanna Dayton________.
A．has never loved her husband B．had an unsuccessful marriage
C．has never considered having kids D．regrets not having a kid with her husband 11．The underlined part “is repulsed by” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “________”．
A．dislikes B．considers C．purchases D．replaces
12．What is the passage mainly about?
A．Why a happy childhood is important to kids. B．How parents can change themselves for kids. C．How people can raise kids in a happy way. D．Why a woman doesn’t want to have kids. 二、七选五
Living with other people can be difficult, especially when each person has their own ideas about how they want to live. 13 ．Taking a few simple steps will help you share your living space harmoniously.
?Discuss your expectations ahead of time.
14 ．This applies to finances, food, possessions, use of common areas, loud activities or parties, quiet hours and so on.
?Divide up responsibilities.
Make a plan to divide up responsibilities and chores (家庭杂务) between you and your roommate.For example, if your roommate is a good cook and you are not， 15 ．It may also be a good idea to set up a chores schedule, where you will take turns cleaning the bathroom, taking out the trash and so on.
? 16 ．
Not everyone has the same ideas about day-to-day living as you do.Take your roommate's feelings into consideration.For instance, if you're dying to throw a party on Thursday night but your roommate has a final early the next morning, agree to postpone the party till Friday evening, instead.
?Communicate effectively.
Communication is key in making the relationship work.If a problem comes up, it's better to talk about it right away than to ignore it.For example, say “Chris, it upsets me when I wake up to find all the milk gone.If you use the last of something, can you please add it to the list？” If you simply cannot communicate openly and there is tension all the time， 17 ．
A．Be prepared to compromise
B．Create a roommate agreement on Internet use C．ask him or her to cook if you'll clean up afterward D．you may as well find a new roommate
E．Talk about what each of you needs and wants from the other in advance F．People may have different religious or political views that could cause conflict G．Though having a roommate can be challenging, it can also be enjoyable and fun 阅读理解（清北必做/重点、文科选做）
Since the late 1980s，nothing has made Peccioli residents happier than collecting garbage.At that time，the small town built one of the most advanced dumping sites (垃圾堆积场) in Italy，designed to recycle and produce green energy.For 20 years，it’s been Peccioli’s most profitable business.
So when a group of young scientists from a nearby university in Pisa called Peccioli’s city hall and asked for permission to run a robotics test，all they had to do was say the magic word：trash.
During a recent test at Peccioli’s main street，the strange garbage collecting robot came into people’s sight：It had two wheels，rounded arms，and two big inspiring eyes，seeming to have escaped from the cartoon movie “Wall-E”．
Like a taxi answering a call，DustCart rode across the street to meet the caller.Once the robot arrived，it asked for a personal ID number that both identifies (识别) the user and tracks the garbage.It also sorted out the trash being dumped—organic，recyclable or waste.DustCart then opened its belly bin (垃圾肚)，collected the trash and took it to a fake dumping site.
Besides replacing the garbage man，Dario，the head scientist，said DustCart could also be an answer to the noise pollution that comes with traditional trash collection in Italy.In cities like Rome，for example，noisy trucks collect garbage in the middle of night.To solve that problem，DustCart runs on a silent，specially-designed battery operated engine.
However，its whole reaction time still seems too slow to deal with any real situation.Placing DustCart throughout the crowded streets of European capitals is an even farther reach.
“We still need to work on it，” admitted the scientists，“but we are on the right track.” Fortunately，the research team has time and money to do it.
DustCart is part of a project called “DustBot，a $3.9 million research program that started in

2006 to implement robotics in society in useful ways，such as cleaning the streets.”
It was given a friendly look to encourage interaction with humans.But for many Italians，who believe in drying their shirts on clothes lines even in December and still look at microwaves with suspicion，the idea of handing their trash to robots seems a little too advanced—or odd.Even in Peccioli.
“Perhaps I find it hard to give my final opinion on a project like this，” said Luca Di Sandro，a small businessman from the town.“But I have become curious.” 18．From the first paragraph we learn that________.
A．Peccioli met the serious garbage problem in the 1980s B．Peccioli owns the biggest dumping site in Italy C．people in Peccioli benefit a lot from collecting trash D．people in Peccioli only use green energy from garbage
19．One of the purposes of DustCart’s asking for the user’s ID number was to________.
A．charge the person automatically B．follow the moving path of the garbage C．record the family’s monthly amount of trash D．get the person’s comment on the service later 20．Compared with traditional trash collection，DustCart________.
A．reduces the cost greatly B．makes much less noise C．works better in trash recycling
D．can work in the middle of night
21．It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A．the dumping site is causing serious pollution B．there are not enough garbage men in Italy C．DustCart will not come into use very soon D．traditional trash collection causes traffic problems

B篇【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文，主要论述了友谊和竞争之间的关系，健康的竞争促进友谊，而恶性的竞争则破坏友谊。
6.解析：选D。细节理解题。分析第二段最后一句可知，该句的主干是Perhaps the ecological definition better explains it，其中“it”指代的是前一句中的“competition”。两个破折号之间的内容解释“the ecological definition”。句意：两个或者更多的生物体同时对有限的生态环

境资源有需求，如营养物质、生存空间、光——这一生态学定义更好地解释了竞争(的含义)。故选D项。
7. 解析：选A。细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知，高中生活与自然界一样有一系列的规则，这与达尔文关于进化、人口过多和竞争的理论相似。也正是因为学生人数众多，为了区分，所以对学生进行了排名、分类。再加上考大学这一高中生活的最终目标的压力，高中生之间的竞争就不可避免地产生了。故选A项。
8. 解析：选B。推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Healthy，friendly competition can have only benefits，but when it becomes too fierce，jealousy (妒忌) can tear friendship apart.”可知，健康的、友好的竞争对友谊有好处，而过于激烈的、存在妒忌的竞争会使友谊破裂。因此竞争的度对友谊是至关重要的。故选B项。
【长难句分析】 It is quite apparent that competition surrounds every aspect of human life whether in the United States or the Amazon rain forest.
分析：It作形式主语，that从句是真正的主语。whether ...or ...意为“不管是……还是……”。 译文：很显然，无论是在美利坚合众国还是在亚马孙热带雨林，竞争围绕着人类生活的各个方面。
