I decided to go out with two of my friends to have a 31 drink. The first ha

9、lf of the evening was filled with them 32 me about safety in foreign countries and telling me to be 33 in all the dangerous places I was visiting. As the night progressed we all got very drunk and rude 34 it was the last time we would see each other for some time. Come closing time at about 1 am, we

10、 walked 35 out of the pub and began to make our way home. As we were making our way through the risky neighborhood, five random robbers jumped out of a lane and for no apparent reason began to 36 me and my friends. Luckily a large group of slightly nicer individuals appeared on the scene and came to

11、 our aid, 37 the robbers away. Apart from a few cuts and stolen mobile phones, no one was too badly hurt and within a few minutes we were 38 about the whole suffering. However, what happened next wasnt so funny (for me at least). As we 39 our walk home a police car pulled up and a group of officers

12、40 and surrounded us. We began to explain that we were all right and there was no need to give any statement, but we were all told to 41 up. Two particularly large officers then 42 me and threw me in the back of the car, before ordering my friends home. I was still a little drunk and before I could

13、43 what was happening I was in a police station being told to empty my pockets. Following some brief questions and being informed that I was 44 for attack, I was thrown in a cell and told I would be 45 tomorrow. I spent the night worrying that in my 46 confusion I had hit and hurt someone, however t

14、hese worries were put to rest in the morning when a kind elderly officer entered my cell with a blanket and a cup of tea. A few minutes later I was being handed back my 47 and having antiseptic cream(消毒膏) put on my black eye. It turned out that one of the gang who jumped me and my friends resembled

15、me and was wearing 48 clothes, leading the police to 49 me for him when looking at CCTV footage. After a few awkward 50 I was told that they needed the cell space so I had to leave. They didnt even offer me the bus fare home. The funniest part? I still have the arrest document that says:Arrested: Ja

I guess that would have been when I was about six or seven years o

20、ld, just several weeks or maybe a month before the orphanage(孤儿院) turned me into an old man. I would get up every morning at the orphanage, make my bed just like the little soldier that I had become and then I would get into one of the two straight lines and march to breakfast with the other twenty

21、or thirty boys who also lived in my dormitory. After breakfast one Saturday morning I returned to the dormitory and saw the house parent chasing the beautiful monarch butterflies who lived by the hundreds in the bushes scattered around the orphanage. I carefully watched as he caught these beautiful

22、creatures, one after another, and then took them from the net and then stuck straight pins through their head and wings, pinning them onto a heavy cardboard sheet. How cruel it was to kill something of such beauty. I had walked many times out into the bushes, all by myself, just so the butterflies c

23、ould land on my head, face and hands so I could look at them up close. When the telephone rang the house parent laid the large cardboard paper down on the back cement（水泥）step and went inside to answer the phone. I walked up to the cardboard and looked at the one butterfly who he had just pinned to t

24、he large paper. It was still moving about so I reached down and touched it on the wing causing one of the pins to fall out. It started flying around and around trying to get away but it was still pinned by the one wing with the other straight pin. Finally its wing broke off and the butterfly fell to

25、 the ground and just trembled. I picked up the torn wing and the butterfly and I spat on its wing and tried to get it to stick back on so it could fly away and be free before the house parent came back. But it would not stay on him. 51. The author set the living butterfly free because_. A. he liked

26、it very much B. he had sympathy for the beautiful butterfly C. he couldnt bear a butterfly dying in his favorite bushes D. its wing broke off52. According to the passage, the authors life in the orphanage was_. A. dull and full of strict rules B. simple and easy C. happy and full of hope D. hard and

27、 busy53. What is the authors attitude towards the house parents pinning some butterflies on the cardboard? A. tolerant B. unconcerned C. disgusted D. discouraged 54. We know from the passage that_. A. the author lived alone in the dormitory B. there were one hundred butterflies living in the bushes

28、C. the cardboard paper was left on the step so as to be watched D. the author failed to stick the worn wing onto the butterfly with his spit BI was born in Brooklyn. My father was a small-business man and we never had much money. He supported the family, moved us to Merrick on Long Island, when I wa

29、s 11. He just recently died at age 96. He was still driving and playing golf right to the end. He was the only guy I knew who at age 90 could shoot under his age. I guess that taught me something about perseverance. I went to the University of Michigan as an engineering student in 1960. I was standi

30、ng outside the student union building when Senator John F. Kennedy made a campaign speech that essentially announced his plan for the Peace Corps. He talked about how students could provide service for the country. It was an important moment for me. After I graduated, I worked as a computer programm

31、er for I.B.M. for two years. By then, the Vietnam War was in full swing and the draft(征兵) had accelerated. I didnt agree with the war and was interested in finding alternatives. I.B.M. applied for a delay for me twice but the application failed. I went to work at M.I.T.s Instrumentation Labs on a pr

32、oject designed to create a rescue vehicle for lost submarines（潜水艇）. I thought this job would keep me out of the draft, but M.I.T. hadnt put in the proper paperwork and I got called in for my physical. The day before my physical, I broke my ankle playing tennis and, of course, my draft board didnt be

33、lieve a word of it. I had to provide X-rays. I had tears in my eyes from the pain, but a smile on my face. I started John Snow Inc. in 1978 (Dr. Snow is considered the father of modern epidemiology because he traced the source of a cholera epidemic in the 1850s). We had a very clear vision of what w

34、e would be. It would not be about making the most money but having the most impact. My goal was to attract talented people who had that passion to focus on primary care, womens health, child health, and to do great work.I also run a nonprofit called World Education, which focuses on literacy. What m

35、otivates me is going to the field, either in the United States or overseas, and seeing the people whose lives we affect. I didnt grow up rich but had the advantage of growing up in the United States and getting a good education. I couldnt have started J.S.I. in many other places. And I believe there

36、 is a duty to try and assist people who are struggling against tough situations. 55. What kept the author trying to achieve his goal? A. His fathers good health when he lived to be over 90. B. His poor family. C. His fathers keeping living an active life to the end. D. Kennedys speech about his plan

39、her taught him to play golf B. the author was disappointed to have failed physical examination C. John Snow Inc. was started by the father of modern epidemiology D. the author feels lucky to have grown up in the United States CKirk Watson, then Austins mayor, remembers it this way:“I was at the gym

40、working out and going back and forth between different machines, doing different things. I was on a treadmill(踏车), my head down and a guy on another treadmill cried out, Mayor, is that the World Trade Center?”Moments later, Watson was in another part of the gym, away from televisions. “Another guy s

41、aid another one hit.” he recalled.Watson, now a state senator, recalls every detail, every emotion of Sept. 11, 2001.“I will never forget the feeling of watching the towers fall,” he said, recalling going into mayor mode when it became clear our nation was under attack.You, too, remember the details

42、, the emotions of 9/11. Five weeks from today, on the 10th anniversary of that awful day, we will provide a forum for Central Texans to share their memories. At times, the memories are so vivid, it seems impossible it was so long ago. And there are times the memories are so horrific that it can be h

43、ard to comprehend that such a thing actually happened.For many of us, the 9/11 attacks on our homeland are the equivalent(等同) of what the attack on Pearl Harbor was for Americans on Dec. 7, 1941. The events were comparable, but the outcome was different. Does it seem to you America was in a better p

44、lace 10 years after Pearl Harbor than we are 10 years after 9/11? We remain at war on two fronts. Our nations economy is shrinking. Too many Americans are unemployed. We face challenges so deep that some Americans inheritors of a national spirit long marked by eternal optimism about a boundless futu

45、re are thinking about whether our best days are behind us.“Sept. 11, 2001 was our day that will live in evil,” Watson said. “We need to make sure our children and grandchildren will say we reacted to our day that lived in evil at least as well as that generation that came before us reacted to Pearl

46、Harbor.”Have we done that? Wed like to share your thoughts in a project planned for these pages on Sunday, Sept. 11. Are your memories consumed by the horror of the sights of that day? And, like Watson, do the emotions of the day still burn within you?59. When America was under attack on Sept 11, 20

47、01, Kirk Watson was_. A. in the office having a talk with his staff B. receiving a phone call from his colleague C. in the stadium watching TV D. at the gym taking exercise 60. It can be learnt from the passage that ten years after Sept 11, 2001, _ . A. America is in a better place than they were 10

48、 years after Pearl Harbor B. Americas economy is picking up C. Americans are worried about their future D. many Americans are living a happy life 61. The authors purpose in writing the passage is to _ . A. hope the readers will talk about how they feel about the 9/11 attacks B. expect the victims of

49、 the 9/11 attacks will be tolerant C. call on all Americans to unite D. encourage American young people to fight against terrorists 62. What can be the best title for the passage? A. Great Pain Disappears Slowly B. Ten Years Later, Memory Still Burns C. Ten Years Ago, the 9/11 Attacks Occurred Unexp

50、ectedly D. The 9/11 Attacks, Forgettable or ForgivableDMany of the 85 million people in Irenes path - from the Carolinas to Maine - had not experienced hurricanes, or had only been through storms that were weaker, smaller and less damaging. For those unfamiliar with severe hurricanes, Irene was eith

51、er abstract or not particularly frightening, something to get excited about more than to fear. Given that the way we perceive(感觉) and respond to risk is affective - not merely objectively analytical, but the sum of the facts and how scary those facts feel - it was likely that many people might be ig

52、norant of the storms threat. So it was heartening to see how many did in fact take the warnings to heart and prepared. The long lines at grocery stores, the high demand for batteries and bottled water, and even the patience and understanding about local government orders to evacuate(撤离) or shut down

53、 mass transit systems, show that people took the potential danger seriously.There are two possible lessons from this storm. As much as our affective risk perception system can sometimes produce a dangerous “perception gap” between our fears and the facts - when we sometimes fear more than we need to

54、, or less than we should - its also reasonably good at recognizing risk when its staring us in the face. Though most of us didnt lose power, we know that 7 million people did. Though most of us did not suffer property damage, we know that millions did. Most of us did not lose loved ones, but we know

55、 that at least 21 families did. We know hurricanes can be dangerous, even if for many of us this one wasnt.The other lesson is that rare risks do hide and can spring up with little or no warning, and few of us are prepared for those. Remember the East Coast earthquake last week? It might have been a

56、nnoying to wait in line for hours for those extra D batteries or food supplies, but it was careful to do so, and its a good idea to keep them on hand. Just because a risk might not be staring us in the face or feel all that scary, it doesnt mean that it doesnt make sense to be ready. Just in case.63

57、. From the passage, we can know that Irene_. A. is the way people respond to risk B. is the order to evacuate or shut down mass transit systems C. was the name of a hurricane D. was the author of the passage64. The underlined sentence “its staring us in the face” in the fourth paragraph probably mea

58、ns_. A. we are faced with risk that is unavoidable B. well have to take a risk C. we are likely to experience risk D. we are at risk of suffering property losses 65. According to the passage, one of the lessons learnt from this storm is _. A. people fear the storm more than they need to B. a dangero

59、us storm will become less damaging if forecast accurately C. people are always prepared for risks that happen without warningD. Its reasonable to be aware of risk facing us 66. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that_. A. its not essential to be ready for the possible risk B. it doesnt make

60、sense to take the potential danger seriously C. its worthwhile to take proper measures to avoid possible risk D. its wise to keep batteries or food supplies at home EOn behalf of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for conserving elec

61、tricity during this period of continuous hot, dry weather in Texas.At ERCOT, we have been working around the clock to keep the electricity flowing, making sure you have the resources you need to stay productive and well this summer. While we are always charged with making sure you have adequate elec

62、tricity, this summer has caused a particularly serious challenge to the electric grid(电网).Because the heat has been sustained over the entire state with little or no rain or cloud cover, the strain on the electric grid has been greater than ever before. In Dallas and Austin, we are beating all-time

63、records for triple-digit heat. We have hit three all-time demand peaks in the last two weeks alone, meaning weve used more electricity on three days this summer than on any other day in the history of ERCOT, which covers most of Texas.Additionally, Texas is experiencing economic and population growt

64、h while much of the rest of the country is not. All of these factors are contributing to very high energy usage this summer.As you probably read in your newspaper or saw on the news, ERCOT has issued appeals for conservation across the state this August. We have encouraged businesses and residential

65、 customers to help us save electricity between the critical hours of 3 and 7 p.m.For instance, turning off unnecessary lights, appliances and electronic equipment can help conditions significantly.Conservation efforts help us avoid statewide rotating outages（轮流停电）and keep your lights on and air-cond

66、itioners running. Conservation not only keeps power and cool air flowing to every citizen, it ensures that uninterrupted power flows to critical care customers, who are easily harmed in the extreme heat.While ERCOT has not called for rotating outages this summer, it is important to remember that we

67、only carry out these orderly, temporary outages to prevent a catastrophic collapse of the electric grid. As you may remember from the Northeast blackout a few years ago, once a grid failure occurs, it can take days to restore power to all consumers. Your conservation efforts help us prevent this fro

68、m happening.While ERCOT always carries reserves, our power supply is not unlimited. With your help and conservation efforts, though, we can keep residents and businesses healthy and productive this summer.67. The authors purpose in writing the passage is to_. A. express his gratitude to businesses f

69、or keeping productive B. thank his staff for their great effort C. explain the reasons for the electricity shortage D. express thanks to citizens in Texas for their effort to save electricity68. Serious challenge to the electric grid is due to the following facts Except_. A. non-stop hot, dry weathe

70、r B. little or no rainfall all over the state C. rapid growth in energy production D. economic and population growth69. There have been no statewide rotating outages this summer because_. A. no electric equipment works in businesses at night B. consumers try to use as little electricity as possible

71、at the peak time C. air-conditioners dont work in the evening D. residents turn off all the lights between 3 and 7 p.m.70. We can know from the passage that_. A. a grid failure occurred in the Northeast several years ago B. the residents of Texas dont like hot, dry weather C. more electricity has be

72、en consumed this summer than in any other summer D. it takes weeks for the grid to return to normal once it fails 第II卷 第四部分：书面表达(共两节，满分40分)第一节 完成句子 (共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分)根据每小题括号内的汉语提示，以及句末括号内的英语单词完成句子，并将答案写在答题卡上的相应题号后。71.

79、位，我得走了。 51-54 BACD A篇阅读短文节选自eastoftheweb. Com shotstories Butterflies（1）by Roger Dean Kiser。本文生动地描写了一个热爱自然的崇尚美好的孤儿被困在纪律很严的孤儿院，如同美丽化身的蝴蝶被别在硬纸板上，活泼可爱的少年竞像老人一样地生活。51推理判断题，答案选B。根据第一（There was a time in my life when beauty meant something special to me）、五段（How cruel it was to kill something of such beaut

81、知。Also the boy can identify himself with those butterflies. As the last sentence says “because they did not know that the orphanage was a bad place to live and a very bad place to die“ (l.49/50), you can see, the boy is thinking of himself in this sentence. He once went to the orphanage lie the butt

82、erflies without knowing that it is a bad place to live and a very bad to die. There was no one who told him to go away, who shooed him away. But the boy learned that “the orphanage is a bad place to live and a very bad place to die”. I think in last sentence of the story you can feel the desire for

83、being told not to come to the orphanage. But he went there and now he is pinned down there to the strict rules as the butterflies are pinned down on the cardboard. Furthermore, and what makes the story even more sad but also even more interesting is the fact, that this could be a true story. It is n

84、othing that is hard to fancy. It is a story that could happen in real just in the orphanage at the next corner. Roger Dean Kiser created a beautiful, moving and realistic story with and incredible depth. It even can bring tears into your eyes while reading for the first time.55-58 CABDD篇阅读短文来自美国网站Ne
