C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑·ADear Sir,I am writing to express my concern about the plans to build a motorway near our village. Haldersham is one of the loveliest villages in England. It is peaceful and quiet, and it is situated in a very attractive valley. There are also several beautiful countryside walks in the surroundings, with a view of many rare trees and plants.Most of the people who live in Haldersham have moved here from other places, often from London and other big cities. They have bought houses here to live in a place far away from the noise and the stress of the big city. They paid a lot of money for their houses, but they knew they would get a high quality of life for it.If the planned motorway is built, life in Haldersham will change greatly. There will be a lot of noise around us, and nobody will want to go on the walks. House prices will certainly go down, because nobody will want to buy houses in a place close to a motorway. Haldersham will become an ugly place.I don’t think any of the people living in thi s beautiful village want that, and we all believe exposure to noise pollution can have a direct influence on our health. So, let’s all tell the politicians who support the motorway plans what we think about them!Yours faithfully,Hilary Riley21. Many people move to Haldersham because .A. it has a good environmentB. it is not far away from big citiesC. they want to be a help to the villageD. they prefer to study rare plants in this area22. According to Hilary Riley, a motorway will .A. cause high house pricesB. bring people stressC. provide a convenient lifeD. affect the quality of life23. What’s the purpose of the letter？A. To give an introduction of Haldersham.B. To show grateful thanks to the politicians.C. To express disapproval about the motorway.D. To offer suggestions on building the motorway.BI left home to support my sister in her efforts to present a music festival. She lives on the other side of the world, and I went to visit her, not wanting to leave and feeling like I was leaving home against my will. However, I wanted to show her my support because she is my only sister.So I boarded the plane in mid-August, and hated the long flight. I arrived, tired and hungry.I had left my husband of 2 years, alone, in our old New Orleans house.I was all set and ready to perform for my sister for the music festival on Sunday morning when I received a call from Chicago. The hurricane was predicted to hit our city, and many people had already evacuated, but my husband chose to stay behind. He could not get a call to me on the other side of the world, but he could call his cousin in Chicago. He gave his cousin a message for me, that he would be just fine, and not to worry.As the day wore on, I finally took the stage in front of hundreds of Europeans, and I realized, thanks to CNN, that New Orleans was under water.I performed, hoping that my husband would survive. And I performed perfectly. The audience stood and applauded. I left the stage and went straight to the TV. I saw the street sign near my home, of Humanity Street, but nothing below it, except water.In the days that followed, I found out that my house, my car, my clothes, my furniture, everything that I’d left behind was gone…but not my husband. He survived by riding on the rear bumper（后保险杠）of a VW bus, holding on to the overhead luggage rack, in the pouring rain, down the highway from New Orleans, half-way to Baton Rouge. The rest of the journey was a long walk, but he survived.By the first week of September, I flew back to the Baton Rouge airport, and hugged my husband. Since then, our relationship has grown deeper; we have completely rebuilt our house, bought a new car, bought new furniture and new clothes and joined an inspirational, spirit-filled community.24. Why did the author leave home？A. To look after her sister.B. To attend a music festival.C. To watch a performance.D. To visit her husband’s cousin.25. How did the author feel when she left home？A. Disappointed.B. Worried.C. Tired.D. Unwilling.26. What does the underlined word “evacuated” mean？A. GatheredB. StruggledC. EscapedD. Hid27. What might be the title for the passage？A. Lost it All, Gained Even MoreB. Once Gone, Never ReturnedC. Caught in the HurricaneD. Trapped in a DilemmaCTwo of the saddest words in the English language are"if only"．I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words，because they convey regret，lost opportunities，mistakes，and disappointment．My father is famous in our family for saying，"Take the extra minute to do it right．"I always try to live by the"extra minute"rule．When my children were young and likely to cause accidents，I always thought about what I could do to avoid an"if only"moment，whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter，or something that required a little more work such as taping padding （衬垫） onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table．I don't only avoid those"if only"moments when it comes to safety．It's equally important to avoid"if only"in our personal relationships．We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say"I love you"or"I forgive you．"When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday，I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn't be here．But then I thought about the fact that he's 84years old and I realized that I shouldn't give up an opportunity to see him．I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all．I know there will still be occasions when I have to say"if only"about something，but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality．And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right，or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection，I know that I'm doing the right thing．I'm buying myself peace of mind and that's the best kind of insurance for my emotional well﹣being．28．Which of the following is an example of the"extra minute"rule？A．Start the car the moment everyone is seated．B．Leave the room for a minute with the iron working．C．Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better．D．Move an object out of the way before it trips someone．29．The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to ．A．keep her appointment with the eye doctorB．meet her father who was already an old manC．join in the holiday celebration of the companyD．finish her work before the deadline approached30．The underlined word"foregone"in Paragraph 3is closest in meaning to ．A．abandoned B．lackedC．avoidedD．wasted31．What is the best title for the passage？A．The Emotional Well﹣beingB．The Two Saddest WordsC．The Most Useful RuleD．The Peace of Mind．DThey may have text，email，Facebook and Twitter，but young people are still lonelier than any other age group．The Loneliness in New Zealand Report，published by Statistics New Zealand，shows under 30s are more likely to feel lonely than older people because loneliness decreases with age．Loneliness and poor mental health were strongly related across all ages．Young people were not as likely to feel lonely because of financial hardship，but among older people，lack of money was a significant influence on loneliness．Women were more likely to feel lonely than men．Philip Walker，spokesman for the General Social Survey，said because it was relatively new it was hard to know whether loneliness among young people was a new trend．But overseas research has found that levels of loneliness in youth today are growing．Mr．Walker said the finding needed more exploration，including looking at the role of technology and social media．"It could be that people's expectations of connection have gone up，so we expect increased levels of connection，"he said．"While technology like cell phones could help young people stay connected，on the other hand for those who do get bullied（欺辱），especially bullied online，it's quite isolating．A lot of the time potentially it is a big contributor to loneliness．"Figures from online dating website FindSomeone also confirmed more young people were looking for love．Manager Rick Davies，said younger dating hopefuls were the fastest growing group on the site．Mr．Davies noted that since the report data was collected in 2010there had been huge growth in smart phones，which meant people were online even more．He believed online tools，such as Skype，could help people stay connected．"People can keep in touch with a wide range of friends from all over the world much more easily now．It's like you're sitting in your living room having a chat with them．"Bemardine Reid，operations committee chairwoman for Samaritans，which operates a free helpline，said many of their calls came from people who were lonely．"It might be that they've got some problem，just like all the things people would normally talk to a friend about，but people who are alone lack those normal contacts．"The Statistics New Zealand report also showed people who didn't have face﹣to﹣face contact with family and friends were more likely to feel lonely，as were those who lived alone．32．Which of the following may Mr．Walker agree with？A．High technology may become a reason for loneliness．B．People shouldn't use the Internet to get to know strangers．C．It's hard for people to get enough connection online as expected．D．Social media should play an important role in helping lonely people．33．It can be inferred from the passage that ．A．FindSomeone is a website where you can find old friendsB．without technology，young people would not feel lonelyC．high technology results in the older being lonelyD．those cheated or hurt online tend to feel lonely34．From the last two paragraphs，we can conclude that ．A．Internet can keep people free from lonelinessB．people chatting a lot online tend to be optimisticC．people living alone tend to have more connection onlineD．people communicating less in the real world risk loneliness35．What is the best title of the passage？A．Loneliness Around YouB．Young People OnlineC．Young but LonelyD．E﹣times and Young People．第二节（共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
