a. jessica didnt really like working as a lawyer. b. jessica didnt know what she truly loved for ten years. c. jessica wasnt satisfied with the pay she got as a lawyer. d. jessica was grateful for her parents arrangement for her. 22. what does the underlined word “ailing” in paragraph 3 mean?a. sick.b. crazy.c. worried.d. unhappy.23. what was jessicas mothers attitude toward her singing?a. unknown.b. doubtful.c. supportive.d. negative.24. by telling jessicas story, the writer most probably wants to _. a. encourage us to pursue our dreamsb. show that singing can be a practical careerc. tell us the importance of choosing a right jobd. show that family members support is importantbdeborah cohen is a senior natural scientist at the rand corp and the author of the book a big fat crisis: the hidden forces behind the obesity epidemic and how we can end it. according to the book, there are lots of misunderstandings of obesity. 1. if youre obese, blame your genes. obesity rates have increased. yet, between 1980 and 2000, the number of americans who are obese has doubledtoo quickly for genetic factors to be responsible. at restaurants, a dollar puts more calories on our plates than ever before, because restaurant meals usually have more calories than what we prepare at home, so people who eat out more frequently have higher rates of obesity than those who eat out less.2. if youre obese, you lack self-control. research shows that if we are faced with too much information, we have a tendency to make poor dietary choices. our world has become so rich in temptation that we can be led to consume too much in ways we cant understand. even the most vigilant(警覺的) people may not be up to the task of controlling themselves. 3. lack of access to fresh fruits and vegetables is responsible for obesity. although the us department of agriculture estimates that fewer than 5 percent of americans live in the “food deserts”, about 65 percent of the nations population is overweight or obese. for most of us, obesity is not related to access to more fresh fruits and vegetables, but to the choices we make in supermarkets. 4. the problem is not that we eat too much, but that we dont exercise. michelle obamas “l(fā)ets move” campaign is based on the idea that if kids exercise more, childhood obesity rates will decrease. but there was no significant decrease in physical activity levels as obesity rates climbed in the 1980s and 1990s. in fact, although a drop in work-related physical activity may account for up to 100 fewer calories burned, leisure physical activity appears to have increased. the problem is that we eat too much. 25. the author mentioned deborah cohens book in paragraph 1 to _.a. introduce the topicb. draw readers attentionc. introduce the author of the bookd. advertise the book26. what is the relationship between obesity and the place where you eat? a. the less you eat out, the higher rates of obesity you have.b. the less you eat at home, the lower rates of obesity you have.c. the more you eat out, the higher rates of obesity you have. d. the more you eat at home, the higher rates of obesity you have. 27. whats the best title of this passage? a. four misunderstandings of obesity.b. four rules to help you avoid obesity.c. obesity leads to a big fat crisis.d. lacking self-control leads to obesity.ctime is an american weekly news magazine published in new york city. it was created in 1923 by briton hadden and henry luce, making it the first weekly news magazine in the us. hadden was considered carefree, liked to tease luce and saw time as important but also fun. that accounted for its heavy coverage of celebrities(including politicians), the entertainment industry, and pop culturecriticized as too light for serious news. it tells the news through people, and for many decades, the magazines cover depicted a single person. on haddens death in 1929, luce became the most important man at time and a major figure in the history of 20th-century media. time is also known for its signature red border, first introduced in 1927. it has only changed four times since then. the issue released shortly after the september 11 attacks on the united states featured a black border to symbolize mourning. however, this edition was a special “extra” edition published quickly for the breaking news of the event; the next regularly scheduled issue contained the red border. additionally, the april 28, 2008 earth day issue, dedicated to environmental issues, contained a green border. the next change in border was in the september 19, 2011 issue, commemorating the 10th anniversary of the september 11 attacks with a metallic silver border. the most recent change(again with a silver border) was in the december 31, 2012 issue, noting barack obamas selection as man of the year. time has a division magazine, time for kids(tfk), which is especially published for children and is mainly distributed in classrooms. tfk contains some national news, a “cartoon of the week”, and a variety of articles concerning popular culture that the younger u.s. citizens are interested in. all the stories in tfk are written by young reporters. in some advertising campaigns, the magazine has suggested that the letters time stand for “the international magazine of events”.28. time has a history of _.a. about 50 yearsb. about 70 yearsc. about 90 yearsd. about 150 years29. why did some people dislike time in the beginning? a. it had kept its cover the same since the 1920s.b. it didnt have a serious tone for important events. c. it didnt report important events quickly enough. d. henry luce was in charge of the magazine for too long. 30. why did time change its red border for the first time? a. to remember the 10th anniversary of an attack.b. to remind readers to protect the environment. c. to show great sadness about the deaths. d. to call on readers to vote for obama. 31. what do we know about tfk? a. it has young reporters writing articles. b. it has a division magazine called time. c. it is designed for kids and teachers. d. it mainly contains popular culture. dcheaters called “pirates” often use camcorders(便攜式攝像機(jī)) and cell phones to make illegal copies of blockbusters(大片) in the local theater. these pirates then sell those recordings on the street or over the internet for very low prices. some share them for free. “its unfair for people to pirate movies, ” says 15-year-old hadaia azad ezzulddin. movie piracy “takes money out of the pockets of thousands of people in the movie industry,” she notes. victims include famous actors and directors as well as local theater owners and their employees. hadaia came up with an idea that could help stop movie piracy. hadaias idea uses infrared(紅外線的) light. this range of light is invisible to the human eye. it is visible, however, to many types of cameras. theater owners could place small infrared lights on their movie screens. the lights would not disturb people watching the movie. it would, however, distort the recordings made by many types of cameras. to test her idea, hadaia built a box with a movie screen inside. then, she projected images on that screen through a hole in the box. she took recordings of those images, using nine different types of cameras. these included the types found in cell phones as well as camcorders. during some tests, she also turned on light emitting diodes(發(fā)光二極管), or leds. the leds were embedded（植入的） in a certain place behind the movie screen. they gave out infrared light. sure enough, she showed, a pirated movie included odd stripes or spots if it had been recorded while the leds were on. it might be possible to use the leds to flash the date and time on the movie screen. the information would then appear in the illegal recordings. theater owners or police might use the information to track down the pirates. cutting down on piracy might get more people into theaters to watch the real movie instead of an illegal copy. six out of every ten films now produced arent profitable. they dont make enough money to recover how much was spent to make and market them. such a poor payback can discourage filmmakers from producing anything but the types expected to become blockbuster hits. it might also keep smaller theaters from showing a wider variety of movie types. 32. from what hadaia says in paragraph 2, we can infer that _. a. most people spend less money on pirates movesb. the pirates dont have to pay for the movie ticketsc. theater owners will increase the price of movie ticketsd. she strongly criticizes those who video movies in the theater33. infrared lights are put on the movie screens to _. a. adjust the brightness of the movie screensb. make sure the images of movies are darkc. protect the eyesight of viewers in the darknessd. make illegal copies of movies unpleasant to see34. what is the correct order of the steps in hadaias test? a. she projected pictures on the screen.b. she used cameras to record the pictures. c. she turned on the leds placed behind the screen. d. she made a special box with a movie screen inside. a. bacdb. dcabc. dbacd. bcad35. according to the last paragraph, we can know that _. a. forty percent of movies now are profitableb. small theaters often choose to show low-cost movies c. more and more people go to theaters to fight movie piracyd. filmmakers prefer to produce ordinary movies than blockbusters第二節(jié) （共5小題；每小題3分，滿分15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)。 we all know the importance of curiosity, and here are some tips on how to develop it. keep an open mind. this is essential if you are to have a curious mind. be open to learning, unlearning, and relearning things. 36 therefore, you should be prepared to accept this possibility and change your mind. 37 most people just accept the world as it is. this way, they will certainly lose the “holy curiosity”. try to dig deeper beneath the surface of what is around you. a sure way to dig deeper beneath the surface is asking questions. what, why, when, who, where, and how are the questions curious people always ask. dont label anything as boring. whenever you label something as boring, you close one more door of possibilities. curious people are unlikely to consider things boring. 38 even if they dont yet have time to explore them, they will leave the door open to be visited another time. take learning as something fun. if you see learning as a burden, theres no way you will want to dig deeper into anything. that will just make the burden heavier. however, if you think of learning as something fun, you will naturally want to dig deeper. 39 read diverse materials. it will introduce you to the possibilities and excitement of other worlds which may attract your interest in exploring further. one easy way to do this is through reading diverse materials. 40 itll feed your mind with the excitement of a new world. a. never take things as granted. b. dont spend too much time on just one world. c. try to pick a book or magazine on a new subject. d. some things you know and believe might be wrong. e. it doesnt matter that you dont agree to others opinions. f. instead, they always see these things as a door to an exciting new world. g. so look at life through the glasses of fun and enjoy the learning process. 第三部分 英語知識(shí)運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，滿分55分）第一節(jié) 完型填空（共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分）閱讀下面短文， 從短文后所給各題的四個(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)。 jazzy is a lovely pug(哈巴狗) who always seems to be smiling. you cant help but 41when you look at jazzy now, because you would never guess the horrible situation she was rescued from and the 42 this little dog had. jazzy was taken from her 43 owners, who were immediately 44 with animal cruelty. why?
