A

When I was 12, all I wanted was a signet (图章) ring. They were the "in" thing and it seemed every girl except me had one. On my 13th birthday, my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials (姓名首字母) carved into it. I was in heaven.What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn't being "replaced". We'd been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so

most of the " new" stuff (东西) we got was really just to replace what we'd lost. But not my ring. My ring was new.Then, only one month later, I lost it. I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning. I was sad and searched everywhere for it. But it seemed to have disappeared. Eventually, I gave up and stopped looking for it. And two years later, we sold the house and moved away.Years passed, and a couple of moves later, I was visiting my parents' when Mum told me that she had something for me. It wasn't my birthday, nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift-giving occasion. Mum noticed my questioning look. " You'll recognize this one," she said, smiling.Then she handed me a small ring box. I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside. The family who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorations, which included replacing the carpets. When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroom, they found the ring. As it had my initials carved into it, they realized who owned the ring. They'd had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother. And it still fits me.56. The underlined word "in" in the first paragraph probably means "_____".A. fashionable B. available C. practical D. renewable57. When she got the ring back, the writer was about _____.A. 13 years old B. 15 years old C. 26 years old D. 28 years old

58. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The writer's family moved several times.B. The writer never stopped looking for her ring.C.

Lost and Found C. Lost and Replaced D. An Expensive Ring

BYour glasses may someday replace your smartphone, and some New Yorkers are ready for the switch. Some in the city can't wait to try them on and use the maps and GPS that the futuristic eyewear is likely to include. " I'd use it if I were hanging out with friends at 3 a. m. and going to the bar and wanted to see what was open," said Walter Choo, 40, of Fort Greene.The smartphone-like glasses will likely come out this year and cost between $250 and $600, the Times

said, possibly including a variation of augmented(增强的 ) reality, a technology already available on smartphones and tablets ( 平 板 电 脑 ) that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings. So, for example, if you were walking down a street, indicators would pop up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on the sidewalk in front of you." As far as a mainstream consumer product, this just isn't something anybody needs," said Sam Biddle, who writes for Gizmodo.com. " We're accustomed to having one thing in our pocket to do all these

things," he added, "and the average consumer isn't gonna be able to afford another device (装置) that's hundreds and hundreds of dollars. "9to5Google publisher Seth Weintraub, who has been reporting on the smartphone-like glasses since late last year, said he is confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smartphones."It's just like smartphones 10 years ago," Weintraub said. "A few people started getting emails on their phones, and people thought that was crazy. Same kind of thing. We see people bending their heads to look at their smartphones, and it's unnatural," he said. " There's gonna be improvements to that, and

this a step there. " 60. One of the possible functions of the smartphone-like glasses is to ____.A. program the opening hours of a barB. supply you with a picture of the futureC. provide information about your surroundingsD. update the maps and GPS in your smartphones61. The underlined phrase "pop up" in the third paragraph probably means " ____".A. develop rapidly B. get round quicklyC. appear immediately D. go over automatically62. According to Sam Biddle, the smartphone-like glasses are ____.A. necessary for teenagers B. attractive to New YorkersC. available to people worldwide D. expensive for average consumers63. We can learn from the last two paragraphs that the smartphone-like glasses ____.A. may have a potential market B. are as common as smartphonesC. are popular among young adults D. will be improved by a new technology

60.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段第二句话可知，这种像智能手机的眼镜可以提供周围环境的信息，故选 C。61.【答案】C【解析】词义猜测题。根据句意：如果你走在街上，眼镜上会立刻出现一个指示显示最近的咖啡店的位置，故意为“突然出现”，选 C。62.【答案】D【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段话 Sam Biddle说的最后一句可以推断：对普通消费者来说，这个手机太贵了，故选 D。63.【答案】A【解析】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句可以推测出，这种像智能手机的眼镜可能有潜在的市场。

DPride and Prejudice for the Modern Woman

Let us imagine how Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen's most famous work, might be updated, 200 years on.

Austen's popularity is rooted in her intelligence. But today she would certainly have had a very different life, as would her characters. Here's my own suggestion. . .It is a truth finally and universally acknowledged that a single woman with brains deserves to have equal opportunities to men, however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism." My dear husband," said his hopeful wife one day, " have you heard that the local store, standing empty for so long, is taken over by a bright young businesswoman?"

Her dull and indifferent (漠不关心的 ) husband replied that he had not. "But it is, it is," she replied excitedly. Mr Dull-Husband made no reply."Don't you want to know her plans?" she cried with some impatience."Well, clearly you think it matters to your silly little head. .. so I'd better listen. "

"Well, my dear, the rumour (传言 ) is that she has already set up a string of successful businesses in northern England, though how a woman can know anything about that is beyond me. She will move in herself next month. " "What is her name?" "Bingley. " "Is she married or single?" "What a question! And none of your business. But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys. " "How so? How can it possibly affect them? ""My dear love; those lazy boys need something to wake them up. There are bound to be jobs going. "" Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place. "" Nonsense, my love, how little you've noticed the world has changed. She's got a first-rate degree and some sort of business qualification, I'm told. She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call. "" Me? No. Perhaps you can take an interest. You still have your looks, after all. She may even offer you a job. " "Oh, that's not likely. These new chances belong to the younger generation. But now you mention it, I think I'll go along all the same. "And Mrs Bennet went along. That was 10 years ago. She is now managing director of a FTSE-listed company. ... It would remain the case, of course, that Mrs Bennet would be one of very few women on the company board, that her salary would be lower than her male colleagues, her bonus of a more

"female" dimension and her lifespan (年限) among the city's business leaders shorter than theirs. Still, she'd no doubt have enjoyed Davos—and might even have hobnobbed (攀谈) with influential figures.67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Austen was born 200 years ago.B. Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice.C. Austen's success lies in her wisdom.D. Austen's updated work gains popularity.68. The underlined part in the passage suggests that Mrs Bennet ____.A. had mixed feelings of admiration and surprise about BingleyB. felt kind of worried and doubtful about BingleyC. was extremely anxious to meet BingleyD. had a great curiosity about Bingley69. In the eyes of Mrs Bennet, Bingley surely needed one of their boys to ____.A. get married to B. work for herC. help her move in D. take over her store70. What does the writer intend to tell us?A. Women with brains can also be as successful as men.B. Women have to pay a high price for success.C. A judgment must be made free from prejudice.D. Sex discrimination still exists nowadays.

【要点综述】文章巧妙套用世界名著《傲慢与偏见》章节，独辟蹊径夹叙夹议，深刻评述性别歧视依然存在的这一社会现实。67.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第二段话 Austen’s popularity is rooted in her intelligence可知奥斯丁的成功在于她的智慧，故选 C。68.【答案】A【解析】细节理解题。理解此句的关键在于 beyond me的理解，“超乎了我的理解”说明 Mrs. Bennet对于 Bingley既敬佩又惊讶，故选 A。69.【答案】B【解析】推理判断题。根据 There are bound to be jobs going可以推断Mrs. Bennet认为 Bingley会需要她的儿子工作，故选 B。70.【答案】D【解析】推理判断题。根据文章末段，可知，公司委员会的女性还是很少，Mrs. Bennet的奖金还是比男性同事要少，故，性别歧视还是存在的，选 D。

A MENTORING (导师制) program is giving life changing opportunities to Banbury youth. Young Inspirations was founded two years ago to provide mentoring sessions for students and unemployed young adults aged 11 to 21.Alex Goldberg, the program's founder, said; "We set up Young Inspirations because we wanted to give young people experiences which will potentially be life changing and broaden their outlook."We try to create work experience opportunities that will really make a difference to our youth. For

example, we've secured internships (实习) with world-famous firms such as Honda."At a time of funding cutbacks where schools are finding it more and more difficult to offer this kind of mentoring, it is extremely important that these opportunities are available both to help youth with their school work and grades and to give them opportunities which may help shape their futures. "

Kieran Hepburn, 14, is one of a group of Banbury youth who has benefited from the program so far. In October the Banbury School pupil was accompanied by Young Inspirations staff to Paris where he was an observer at the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization's (UNESCO)

International Youth Forum (论坛).The event was held for young people from around the world, to seek their views on how the future of youth and education should look. Kieran joined several hundred observers mostly in their 20s and was the only UK school pupil to attend the event. Kieran thinks the trip was a life changing experience. " Before we left I didn't quite know what to make of it but when we got there we didn't stop, it was amazing," he said, " We went to three or four hours of debates each day and then did something cultural each afternoon. "The main theme of the forum was how youth can drive change in political and public life. It dealt with

issues (问题) such as drug abuse, violence and unemployment.Kieran said: " It has really helped me to improve my confidence and social skills as well as my school grades and I was voted most improved pupil at school in August. "The Young Inspirations mentoring sessions take place each Friday in Banbury. For details visit www.younginspirations.com.71.

【要点综述】书面表达以漫画的形式讲述“以孩子为中心的三口之家，孩子是小皇帝”这一社会现象，发人深省。漫画式作文就是通过漫画提供的图像信息写一篇短文，漫画作文就内容而言，可以写观察到的内容，也可以根据合理想象适当进行发挥来补充一些内容；就表达方式而言，可以单纯地理解、说明，也可以在说明中加以描写、叙述。写好漫画作文的要求是：认真审图，确立主题，提炼要点，展开联想或发表感想，变点为句，连句成篇。要达到这些要求，我们必须认真审图，善于利用图中人物间的关系、人物对话、人物的活动及所处场所，以及图表中的文字说明和标识来提炼要点；要围绕主题展开合理的想象，切忌游离于主题展开不着边际的联想或感想。【Possible Version】From the picture we can see a family of three walking on a long red carpet. The son, well dressed,

waves proudly in the middle while the father behind bends forward to hold the jacket and the mother in front rolls out the carpet, sweating. It shows a common phenomenon nowadays that children are the focus of families, shouldering the hope of their parents. Parents arrange everything for their children and spare no effort to pave the way for their success. As a consequence, children become so reliant on their parents that they have no independent thought or creative ideas.Such a situation is of great concern. In my opinion, overprotection and too much care are extremely bad for children's development. Instead of doing everything for them, parents should encourage their children to overcome difficulties and inspire them to develop by themselves. Only in this way can they grow up to be independent and become truly successful.
