As more and more books bee movie adaptations, I can’t help but think how this will affect English classes in America. Thinking back to my years in middle and high school—ten years ago, I would be rewarded if I had read a number of classics. Today, a majority of those books are now also movies: Life of Pi, The Great Gatsby, Much Ado About Nothing and Anna Karenina, to name a few.
Even modern books such as The Hunger Games and Harry Potter have been adapted for the big screen. In discussion with my students, I often hear them say they are not going to read books because movies will e out soon, which makes me wonder what effect movie adaptations have on
B. Main purpose of the College.
D. Approved quality from authorities.
modern-day students. Will the mon Core State Standards (CCSS) encourage them to read books more carefully or to use movies to improve their understanding of the text?
The CCSS requires students to provide text-based evidence when reading and discussing a book. By focusing on such evidence, teachers can pull specific details from a book that may have not made the final cut when the book was adapted for the big screen. For instance, after reading and watching The Hunger Games, there were a number of details from the book that were missing from the film-many people were disappointed with Rue’s meek（温顺的）movie role. A student who failed to read The Hunger Games would not quite understand Rue’s impact on the games in the same way as someone who had read the book and remembered all the details that went into her death.
I am not saying the CCSS will stop students from cutting corners, but I believe if teachers use the support the CCSS provides, it can be a great roadway to ensure all students are digging deep into texts and not just hitting the play button. 32. Ten year ago, students in America were ____. A. fond a reading all kinds of novels B. forbidden to discuss movies in class C. not allowed to watch movies in the cinema D. encouraged to read many literature works
33. Which of the following might be the effect that movie adaptations have on modern-day student? ____
A. They spend less time in studying. B. They can’t understand English texts. C. They spend less time in reading. D. They discuss movies more frequently.
34. What can we learn from the third paragraph? ____ A. The Hunger Games is the worst movie adaptation.
B. It is a waste of time reading and discussing a book in class. C. Movie adaptations may bring trouble in understanding the books. D. Rue’s impact on the games is perfectly presented in the movie. 35. According to the text, it seems that the CCSS ____. A. prevents students watching movies B. provides students with well-known movies C. encourages students to write novels
D. provides guidance on teaching and learning.

Studies are showing that losing your temper（脾气）is as unhealthy as controlling anger. Here are four tips to manage your temper.
*Question yourself. Experts remend asking yourself these questions whenever you feel angry: What made me angry? Why do I feel this way? Is it really worth blowing up?
36 If you think your anger is appropriate, decide what result you want. Then make a plan and follow it. But in most cases, you need to calm yourself down.
*Change the way you think. 37 ----- You think your boss gave you a negative look, and your blood begins to boil. The best action you can take is to find alternative ways of looking at the situation. Say to yourself, “Maybe he’s in pain, or maybe he’s having a bad day”. 38 And it takes the focus off your anger and gives you a new standpoint.
* 39 Writing forces you to organize your thoughts and to think clearly, to use your head rather than lose it. It also gives you the chance to express your feelings and develop a plan on how to deal with the issue.
*Weight prod and cons（利弊）. Experts advise you to ask yourself, “Will getting angry help me achieve my goals or will it do more harm than good?” 40 In fact, you’re taking the time to think carefully about what you want to say. A. Put pen to paper.
B. Exchange anger from heart to heart.
C. Letting it go doesn’t mean you’re controlling the anger. D. Angry feelings are often the result of how we look at things. E. Reflecting on those different interpretations calms you down. F. You always put yourself in other’s shoes to change your attitude. G. Such evaluation helps you think reasonably and control your feelings 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）

For much of the earliest history of our species, home may have been nothing more than a small fire and the light it cast on a few familiar faces. But whatever else 41 is and however it entered our consciousness – it’s a way of organizing 42 in our minds. Home is home,
and everything else is not-home.
Not that you can’t feel “at home” in 43 places. But there’s a big psychological 44 between feeling at home and being home. Feeling at home in other places is simply a way of saying that the not-home-ness of those places has 45 since you first arrived. Some people, as they 46 through their lives, rediscover home again and again. Some people never find another after once 47 home. And, of course, some people 48 leave the only home they’ve always known.
Homesick children know how 49 the boundary between home and not-home can be be-cause they 50 the difference. I know the 51 because I was one of them. I felt a strong connection between people 52 in the small town I grew up in. But spending the 53 away from home, such as sleeping at my friend’s houses, made everything seem alien. And yet when I got back home in the morning, home was as usual. That was the 54 --home is a place so 55 that you don’t even have to notice it.
And there’s something more. 56 my father died, my brothers and sisters and I went back to his 57 , where he’d lived alone. It wasn’t only his 58 we felt. It was as though something had 59 from every object in the house. They had, in fact, bee 60 objects. The person whose heart and mind could bine them into a single thing – a home—had gone. 41.
