At the first one, just 6, 225 people pleted the course, and since then it has grown into one of the biggest sporting events in the world. It is one of the World Marathon Majors, which is a petition made up of six global marathon events. The overall male and female winners receive $1 million in prize money between them.

They are amateurs who have trained for months to raise money for charity or just as a personal challenge. For example, Tom Harrison took three days just to reach the runs halfway point, as he is crawling the course on his hands and knees dressed as a gorilla(大猩猩), trying to raise money and attention for the charity The Gorilla Organization.Matthew Rees was another runner to encourage people, as he stopped just before the finish line to help David Wyeth run the last 200m.They did not know each other before, but Matthew saw that David was exhausted and possibly close to collapsing, and wanted to help him finish.Every year there are lots of touching stories like this from the London Marathon, and it is a huge achievement even to run the 26.2 miles!24.

Impressive Marathon RunnersC. Touching Stories behind Marathon D. The History of the London MarathonCOne of my all-time favorite holiday destinations is the Gold Coast. With its beautiful beaches, mountain hinterland and theme parks, the variety from one location to another is fantastic! And its also important that its like a playground for my children. The Gold Coast certainly offers something for every member of our family. We all love heading down to the beach for an early morning swim or surf. The beaches feature some of the softest golden sand and pumping waves, making them ideal for surfing. Safety is important, especially when Im out with the kids, and I feel better knowing that lifeguards are continually on patrol(巡邏). The long coast also offers the perfect setting for a leisurely walk at sunset-a favorite activity of mine. Then, of course, theres the bargain-hunting in the citys center. For shopping-goers, there are amazing shopping centers, boutiques and the usual chain stores. I always pick up loads of goodies at Pacific Fair. The Gold Coast is popular for its theme parks-Sea World, Warner Bros Movie World and Dream World. The seal and dolphin presentations at Sea World keep both children and adults on the edge of their seats as the sea creatures go through a series of plicated jumps, flips and rolls. Its great entertainment and an educational window to the underwater world for the kids. Our kids also enjoy meeting the characters at Movie World and watching how real movies are made. Night-time is equally fun, as we usually set off to find the best local restaurants and cafes. The mix of cultures and influences has given the Gold Coast a wide variety of choices, including modern Australian, Italian, Asian and seafood, although sometimes nothing beats fish and chips! A visit to the Gold Coast in the Sunshine State is worthwhile and fun.28. Why does the author consider the Gold Coast as her ideal holiday destination?A. There are a lot of shopping centers. B. The whole family can have fun thereC. Its a safe and interesting place for kids D. The author can walk leisurely along the coast.29. What does the underlined word “boutiques” probably mean?A.

The shopping centers D. Various choices of foodDWhat makes us human? Is it our thoughts? Our emotions? Our behavior?All of these things make us who we are, but at the center of it all lies the genome(基因組)the genes inside our bodies that determine everything from our hair color to our intelligence. But if we could change our genome, would we still be human?Recently, a group of scientists from the United States and South Korea worked together to successfully “edit” a human embryo(胚胎)and remove a genetic mutation(變異)that would have led to heart disease, reported The Guardian.This was achieved with the help to CRISPRa gene-editing tool that allows scientist to edit the genome by cutting, changing or adding to parts of it.Scientists involved in DNA editing are certain about the good of their work, and hope that in the future, diseases or birth defects could simply be “edited out”However, others arent so sure. People are worried that the science could be used not only to remove life-threatening illness, but also to make a “perfect” baby whose DNA had been chosen to improve their intelligence or other qualities. It might make having a baby similar to choosing a new house or car. Critics(評(píng)論家)say that this is a shallow way of thinking about raising children“It makes you think about who we are as people, and it makes you ask if humans should be using the kind of power that is changing human evolution(進(jìn)化),” Jennifer Doudna of the University of California, Berkeley told MIT Technology Review.Still, others worry that DNA editing could be turned into an expensive service that would only be available to the people who could afford it. That might mean the rich would be given another advantage in a world where they already have plenty of them.“You could find wealthy parents buying the latest upgrades for their children, leading to even greater inequality than we already live with,” Marcy Darnovsky, director of the San Francisco Center for Genetics, told BBC News.32. Why are the questions asked in Paragraph 1?A. To attract the readers interest B. To seek answers from the readersC. To show those things arent important D. To correct our understanding of human beings33. Which of the following will Jennifer Doudna most probably agree with?A. Having a perfect baby is not so good for the familyB. Life-threatening illnesses should be removed before birthC. DNA editing might cause unexpected problems to humansD. DNA editing may enlarge the gap between the rich and the poor34. What does the underlined word “them” most probably refer to? A. Advantages B. Expensive services C. Perfect children D. Qualities35. What does the author think of DNA editing?A. Its good for human evolution B. It will make humans look similarC. Its influence is still quite uncertain D. It can only be afforded by the rich. 第二節(jié) （共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。How to Deal with Being Taken for GrantedFrom an early stage in your life, you are taught to respect others, and do kind things for them. However, in some cases, people begin to take advantage of your kind nature, expecting more from you. 36 If you feel as if there are people in your life who take you for granted, its time to protect yourself.Know that you have the right to feel respected. Social and cultural pressures may encourage you to believe that its rude to say “no” to others when they ask you for things. You may also have been taught to feel that your work is less valuable than others and does not deserve acknowledgment. 37 But everyone has the right to be respected and appreciated, and it isnt wrong to want to be treated that way.Identify what has changed in the relationship. If you feel taken for granted, it may be because you once felt valued by the person who is now taking you for granted. It might also be due to the knowledge that you should be appreciated but actually you are not. 38 It can also help you find a solution for the relationship. 39 You know that you dont want to feel taken for granted. But what do you want? It will be hard to see any change in your situation if you feel vague dissatisfaction but have no clear ideas on what would improve it. 40 Once you know the change about the relationship clearly, youll be able to take better action to get you there.A. Think about what you want.B. Practice what you want to say.C. These things can lead to you feeling taken for granted.D. Try making a list of things that you would like to see the change about the relationship.E. If you feel taken for granted by others, you need to municate that to the other person.F. Such people may repeatedly ask you for favors without returning any favors or showing you any respect.G. Whatever the cause is, identifying what has changed your munications with the other person can help you feel better.第三部分：英語(yǔ)知識(shí)運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，滿分45分）第一節(jié)完形填空（共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。Whenever Michael Carl goes out to dinner with friends, he plays something called the “phone stack” game: Everyone 41 their phones in the middle of the table; whoever looks at their device before the check arrives 42 for dinner.Brandon Holley had trouble 43 her mobile phone when she got home from work.
