語篇解讀：運(yùn)動(dòng)在教育系統(tǒng)中占有重要地位。對(duì)學(xué)生來說，運(yùn)動(dòng)是非常重要的。
16.解析：考查代詞。It 在句中作形式主語，真正的主語是 that 后面的從句。
答案：It
17.解析：考查介詞。根據(jù)語境可知，本句意為“經(jīng)過數(shù)小時(shí)的學(xué)習(xí)后，運(yùn)動(dòng)是一種重要的娛樂方式”。
答案：after
18.解析：考查過去分詞。attention and concentration 與 accompany 是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，此處用過去分詞作定語。

第二部分 閱讀(共兩節(jié)，滿分50分)
第一節(jié)：閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題2分，滿分40分)
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
Holding a cell phone against your ear or storing it in your pocket may be dangerous to your health.This explains a warning that cell phone manufacturers include in the small print that is often ignored when a new phone is purchased.Apple，for example，doesn't want iPhones to come closer to you than 1.5 centimeters;Research In Motion，Black Berry，a manufacturer，recommends 2.5 centimeters.
If health issues arise from cell phone use，the possible effects are huge.Voice calls?Americans chat on cell phones 2.26 trillion(萬億)minutes annually?earn9 billion for the wireless carriers.
Devra Davis，an expert who has worked for the University of Pittsburgh，has published a book about cell phon radiation，“Disconnect”.The book surveys scientific research and concludes the question is not settled.
Brain cancer is a concern that Ms.Davis examines. Over all，there has not been an increase in its incidence since cell phones arrived. But the average masks an increase in brain cancer in the 20?to ?29 age group and a drop for the older population.
“Most cancers have multiple causes，”she says，but she points to laboratory research that suggests low?energy radiation could damage cells that could possibly lead to cancer.
Children are more vulnerable(易受傷的)to radiation than adults，Ms.Davis and other scientists point out.Radiation that penetrates only five centimeters into the brain of an adult will reach much deeper into the brains of children because their skulls are thinner and their brains contain more absorptive fluid(易吸收的液體).“No studies have yet been completed on cell phone radiation and children，”she says.
Henry Lai，a research professor in the bioengineering department at the University of Washington，began laboratory radiation studies in 1980 and found that rats exposed to radiation had damaged DNA in their brains.
Ms.Davis recommends using wired headsets or the phone's speaker.Children should text rather than call，she said，and pregnant women should keep phones away from the abdomen(腹部).
語篇解讀：使用手機(jī)會(huì)帶來輻射，影響身體，因此需要正確使用手機(jī)。
26.Why is the warning in the small print?
A.They don't want the users to pay attention to it.
B.There is not enough space for the warning.
C.They think people will not care about it.
D.The warning is not important at all.
解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。 根據(jù)第一段“This explains a warning that...”可推斷出。
答案：A
27.According to Ms.Davis，brain cancer increase________.
A.among children B.among old people
C.in the twenties D.among pregnant women
解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第四段“But the average masks...”可知。
答案：C
28.Why do children easily be affected by radiation?
A.Because they haven't grown up.
B.Because they are too young to protect themselves.
C.Because they use cell phones more often than adults.
D.Because their skulls are thinner and their brains are easily hurt.
解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)“Radiation that penetrates only five...”可知。
答案：D
29. What can we conclude from the last paragraph?
A.Pregnant women should keep cell phones away.
B.People should use cell phones in the correct way.
C.If you are a child，you'd better text than make phone calls.
D.When you use a cell phone，use a wired headset or the phone's speaker.
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段：Ms.Davis recommends...可推出。
答案：B
30.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.Be careful when using cell phones.
B.Don't hold your cell phone against your ear.
C.Rats exposed to radiation have damaged DNA in their brains.
D.Low?energy radiation could damage cells that could lead to cancer.
解析：主旨大意題。與本文主旨相吻合，其他三項(xiàng)只是細(xì)節(jié)題。
答案：A
B
Growing up in Swaziland，Sara was aware from a young age that some communities are facing big c hallenges. Since the first cases were reported in 1986，AIDS has spread at an alarming rate，and today 1 in 4 adults in Swaziland are living with HIV. With so many adults dying，nearly 4 in 10 people in Swaziland are under 14.Life expectancy(預(yù)期壽命)now tops a mere 32 years and the nation has the highest infection rate in the world.
During high school，Sara volunteered to teach English to children orphaned(使成為孤兒)by AIDS.It was her first act of direct service to others.It gave her the chance to use her own education and experience to help others.
Sara didn't stop there.During her gap year, when she had time off between high school and college，she used her background of growing up in Africa to spend four months working with an Irish nongovernmental organization，Value Added In Africa，which promotes business links with African countries. Again，volunteering became the door to a new range of experiences and options.Today Sara is pursuing a degree at Carleton College in the US.Her decision to study economics is no accident—she's determined to understand how trade can help developing countries reduce their reliance on aid.By following this career path she hopes she can help her homeland.
Moving to a new place can be hard，but Sara has overcome the challenge of making friends and being accepted —by using her background as a volunteer with lots of local projects and organizations.Once again，seeing the community as a volunteer is helping to introduce her to the local community，explore the area，become familiar with life in the US in a very practical way.
“Having traveled and lived in different cultures I find the most honest approach to understanding a place is to contribute in some way to its community，”she says.“Volunteering in the US has surpassed(超過)my expectations.It's been easy to find amazing and cool events to help out at! Volunteering here is different because the organizations I have met here are probably the most generous with their volunteers.”
31.Sara grew up in a country where ________.

答案：A
33.What happened to Sara when she arrived in the US?
A.She missed life in her homeland very much.
B.She worried a lot about her future in the US.
C.It was very hard for her to live in a new place.

Twenty million kids register each year for youth hockey，football，baseball，soccer，and other competitive sports.The National Alliance for Sports reports that 70 percent of these kids quit playing these league sports by age 13-and never play them again.
According to Michael Pfahl，executive director of the National Youth Sports Coaches Association.“The number one reason why they quit is that it has stopped being fun.”With figures like these，it's time we rethought how we present youth sports to kids.
With that in mind，here are some key points to remember about kids playing sports.
Preschool.Elementary school. Sports psychology expert Rick Wolff，stresses that parents of kids aged 5—12 need not be concerned with their children's excellence in such refined sports skills as comer kicks.“Those are unimportant，”Wolff advises.“The key here is having your child develop a sense of passion for the sport.”Many kids lose their passion for youth sports during these years because they can't live up to their parents' and coaches' expectations.
Middle school.Kids start dropping out in big numbers at this stage.Playing sports loses its enjoyment for them and “fun” takes a back seat to winning.Pickup games and just “playing for fun”should be encouraged.The key at this stage is to keep them playing the sports they enjoy—if not on school or youth teams，then informally with friends.Not being on a team does not mean they have failed as athletes. It just means that they have to find other pleasurable ways to continue enjoying their sports.
語篇解讀：每年都有很多的孩子報(bào)名參加各種競(jìng)技運(yùn)動(dòng)，但是到了13歲以后，他們?cè)僖膊煌媪恕?/p>
36.What's the best title for this passage?
A.Who should be responsible for kids' health

解析：主旨大意題。文章通過對(duì)三個(gè)年齡段的孩子進(jìn)行分析，告訴成人在孩子參加體育運(yùn)動(dòng)方面應(yīng)注意什么。
答案：D
37.Michael Pfahl would probably agree that______.
A.most kids lose interest in sport because of poor skill
B.the adults shouldn't give kids negative comments
C.the adults should try to make it fun for kids to play sports
D.the adults should spend more time playing with kids
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段“‘The number one reason why they quit is that it has stopped being fun.’With figures like these, it's time we rethought how we present youth sports to kids” 可以推斷，成人應(yīng)該激發(fā)孩子的運(yùn)動(dòng)興趣。
答案：C
38.What's the most important thing for elementary school kids when they play sports?
A.A sense of passion for sports. B.Parents' reasonable expectation.

When did you last receive a sincere apology?When did you last hear a public figure make a convincing apology?When did you last make a sincere apology yourself?
The British used to be good at saying sorry.But saying sorry in words that sound true is another matter.Listen to Jeremy Clarkson apologizing after he had called Gordon Brown “a oneeyed Scottish idiot” on a visit to Australia：“In the heat of the moment，I made a remark about the Prime Minister's personal appearance, for which I apologize.” Do you think he is sincerely sorry? He is just going through the motions(做姿態(tài)).
Or how about an apology by a Tessa Jowell at the height of the government scandal(丑聞)：“If you feel that we，the government, fall short of what you expect, then I say sorry for that.” Ah，so it was all the voters' fault，for expecting politici ans to behave themselves. There is not a sign of sincerity here.
“Sorry” really is the hardest word, not just because it is difficult to admit you are wrong, but because the word itself is so vague (模糊的). How many people say sorry, but do not actually apologize? Making an apology just right takes skills and you need to avoid the several deadly forms of apologizi ng.
Type 1：Avoid apologies that sound like excuses.“I'm sorry，darling” is 20 times better than “ I'm sorry，darling;I was tired /under pressure”.
Type 2: Saying sorry should be a pure act，like a declaration of love, so avoid conditional apologies like “I'm sorry if I have upset you”.You have upset the other person—accept responsibility for it.
Type 3：People tend to cry like a baby when apologizing. But tears won't strengthen your apology; they will undermine it.However pitiful you are，it is not your feelings that are important but those of the person you have hurt. So don't turn your apology into a show of sadness.
語篇解讀：如何道歉才顯得真誠(chéng)呢?我們應(yīng)該避免什么樣的道歉方式呢?
41.What's the function of the first paragraph?
A.To introduce the main idea of the passage.
B.To make readers think about the topic.
C.To give an example of the topic.
D.To make the pas sage fun and easy.
解析：文章結(jié)構(gòu)題。第一段給出了三個(gè)問題，旨在引導(dǎo)讀者對(duì)接下來要講的話題進(jìn)行思考。
答案：B
42.When talking about Jeremy Clarkson's apology, the author was______.
A.thankful B.hopeful
C.critical D.anxious
解析：作者態(tài)度題。根據(jù)第二段的 “Do you think he is sincerely sorry? He is just going through the motions” 可知作者對(duì) Jeremy Clarkson 的道歉持“批評(píng)”態(tài)度。
答案：C
43.Tessa Jowell thought the fault for the government scandal lies in______.
A.the government B.her
C.the voters' misunderstanding D.the voters' high expectation
解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的 “Ah, so it was all the voters' fault, for expecting politicians to behave themselves” 可知答案。
答案：D
44.Which of the following sentences belongs to the second type of deadly apology?
A.I'm sorry but I was angry then.
B.I apologize if I have caused you inconvenience.
C.I'm sorry for what I did.
D.I apologize but I had to do so.
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù) Type 2 中提到的 conditional apologies 以及舉例 “I'm sorry if I have upset you”可知 B 正確。
答案：B
45.The underlined word “undermine” in the last paragraph is similar in meaning to “______”.
A. weaken B.keep C.value D.end
解析：詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)前面的 “tear won't strengthen your apology”以及后面的“So don't turn your apology into a show of sadness”可知哭泣將“減弱”道歉的效果。
答案：A

E.Gray: the color of caution and agreement. Grays search for the state of calm and peace and often work hard. Older Grays like a steady life with few ups and downs. Young Grays may run away from life and suppress(抑制) their personalities. Grays often have good business ability and tend to work too much.
F.Black: calm，serious, deserving respect and impressive without being showy. Black people want to give the appearance of mystery, but their preference may also indicate the suppression of desires and worldly aims, suggesting hidden depths and inner desires.

Smoking is a common phenomenon in all countries.It can be found almost everywhere.Some smokers think that smoking is a fashion of today and shows a gentlemanly manner.Some authors think that smoking can help them get rid of their tiredness when they are writing.And other smokers say they smoke just because they want to follow the general trend.
Now，there are indications that smoking is harmful to a person's health.Many diseases such as cancers and chronic bronchitis(支氣管炎) are caused by smoking.What is more，smoking not only does harm to the health of smokers but also affects the health of nonsmokers around them because nonsmokers are forced to take in some poisonous substances which smokers blow into the ai r.So smoking is a health hazard(危害).
For these reasons，we should ban smoking in public places such as trains，buses，schools，hospitals，theatres，restaurants and stores.All the smokers should give up smoking for the sake of their own and others' health.And doctors，teachers，and government officials should take the lead not to smoke.Above all，the harm and dangers caused by smoking should be made known to all through newspapers，broadcast and TV programmers，and the production of cigarettes should not be encouraged.Only in this way can we effectively reduce the number of smokers.

答案：
Obviously，smoking is harmful and dangerous to both smokers and non?smokers ，which can lead to heart disease，lung cancer and many other problems，for which it should be forbidden in public.
In my opinion, middle school student shouldn't smoke because it not only does great harm to their health but affects their studies.About 2.5 million people die from smoking each year.Smoking is against the school rule.Besides, smoking is a waste of money and can cause many problems such as fire.In many cities, smoking is forbidden in public places such as schools, hospitals, restaurants and stores.The harm of smoking is warned everywhere.And newspapers should be asked not to publish advertisements for cigarettes.
