At thirteen, I was diagnosed (诊断) with a kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.
In my first literature class, Mrs Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it. ”
She glanced at me through her glasses, “You are not different from your classmates, young man.”
I tried, but I didn't finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.
In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn't get much education. But Louis didn't give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots (点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.
Wasn't I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilt out (涌出) and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was not different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way to solve his problems, why should I ever give up?
I didn't expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day—with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “See what you can do when you keep trying？”
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者患有注意力障碍，不能集中精力于所做的事情。但史密斯老师的“一视同仁”让他发现自己其实可以克服这种障碍，并决心继续尝试，最终取得了成功。
24．Why didn't the author finish the reading in class?
A．He didn't have selfconfidence.
B．He was not fond of literature.
C．He had an attention disorder.
D．He needed a quieter place.
C 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知，作者患有注意力障碍，当班里的其他人都专注于任务时，他却不能。所以作者在课上完成不了阅读的内容是因为有注意力障碍。
25．What can we learn about Louis Braille from the passage?
A．He got a good education at school.
B．He made an invention which helps the blind.
C．He gave up trying.
D．He managed to cure his blindness.

26．What was Mrs Smith's attitude to the author at the end of the story?
A．Angry. B．Impatient.
C．Sympathetic. D．Encouraging.

C
Have you ever felt like you aren't respected by others? In a way like you are taken for granted (想当然) or not taken seriously? In one way or another, all of us have felt this. We hope to be regarded as an authority (权威), someone people respect and believe in. We're not taught in school how to do this. It's something we learn by ourselves. And the answer is as simple as changing your mindset. You can change your game by changing your mind.
Take the time to look back and think about every person in your life who is an authority, a leader at work who you trust, or the man who you respect and encourages you. They're up there not for the reasons you think. If you really think about it, they aren't the smartest or the most educated. Instead, they're up there because they're great teachers for the success of their customers or employees.
Let's take Richard Simmons, a famous fitness instructor, for example. He became wellknown since he started gaining popularity during the first few years in his career. Stop and think. People look up at him and give him authority because he's a great educator. Instead of sharing information that's far too difficult to understand, he figures out what your problems are and finds out a way to fix them. He doesn't try too hard to impress his followers because by now they're already pretty impressed with the desire to solve people's problems. Depending on what field you're in, you can share with people things you know and you think they'll want to know as well. If you're a nurse, for example, you can make a blog post for common health problems and quick remedies (疗法) people can do at home.
So, how will you be viewed as an authority again? Make that mind shift. Find out what troubles your target. Show your care, give answers and help them climb up that ladder of success. Ladies and gentlemen, that's how it's done.
【解题导语】 文章通过举例子的说明方式，主要介绍了让自己成为受人尊敬的权威的攻略。告诉我们可以通过改变自己的想法来改变我们的世界。
28．Who teaches people to win other people's respect according to paragraph 1?
A．Our teachers. B．We ourselves.
C．Our parents. D．Richard Simmons.
B 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“We're not taught in school how to do this. It's something we learn by ourselves.”可知，学校里没人教我们怎么做，这是靠我们自己学到的。由此可知，我们靠自己学会如何赢得别人的尊重。故选B。
29．What is the quality of an authority according to the author?
A．He is very smart.
B．He is knowledgeable.
C．He does something for others.
D．He is professionally successful.
C 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“If you really think about it...of their customers or employees.”及第三段中的强调能成为权威的原因所举的具体例子“he figures out what your problems are...to solve people's problems”可知，权威的人会解决别人的问题，帮别人的忙。由此可知，作者认为权威的品质是为别人做一些事情。故选C。
30．In order to explain how to be respected, what does the author do?
A．To make comparisons.
B．To list some facts.
C．To make comments.
D．To give examples.
D 解析：推理判断题。文章第二段介绍了赢得尊重的原因、秘诀，第三段以理查德·西蒙斯的具体例子来阐释第二段所讲的内容，这两段逻辑结构清晰，因此作者所用的方法是“举例子”。故选D。
31．What is the passage intended to show?
A．An authority keeps positive in any situation.
B．We can change our mind to change our world.
C．Kindness is the key to being a success in life.
D．The process is more important than the results.
B 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“You can change your game by changing your mind.”和最后一段中的“Make that mind shift.”可知，我们可以通过改变自己的想法来改变我们的世界。此外，应注意干扰项C对原文结论的范围进行了不当扩大，原文一直讲的是帮助他人可以赢得尊重，这并不等于“kindness”就可以取得人生的“success”。故选B。
D
If you're out for a run, what difference does it make if you're able to tough it out for another 50 seconds? If you're less than a minute from the top of the hill, that extra time can make the difference between having reached your goal and snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
How do you get those extra seconds of energy? A research team at the Texas Tech University developed a study to measure what effect listening to music would have on exercise tolerance. The researchers based the study on a stress testing. As part of the testing, they noted any changes in heart rate and blood pressure as participants under went physically stressful exercise.
The tests were done on treadmills (跑步机), which increased in both speed and incline (坡度) through three stages. In the final stage, the treadmills moved at 10 miles per hour at a 14percent grade. Most of these tests were designed to last up to 40 minutes. The average gymgoers lasted 30 minutes. For this study, they divided 127 participants into two groups. One listened to upbeat (快节奏) music, while the other group had earbuds in but did not listen to music.
The group that listened to music was able to outlast the nonmusic group by an average of 50.6 seconds. Again, being able to go an extra minute may seem like a nobrainer, but “after 30 minutes, you feel like you are running up a mountain, so even being able to go 50 seconds longer means a lot，” said the study's lead author, Waseem Shami, MD.
The study has confirmed something runners and gymgoers have suspected for years: Listening to music during workout can be beneficial to your endurance. “Our findings reinforce the idea that upbeat music can help you exercise longer and stick with a daily exercise routine，” said Shami. “When doctors are recommending exercise, they might suggest listening to music, too.”
【解题导语】 文章主要介绍一项研究，锻炼时听音乐可以提高运动耐力。文章又介绍了这项研究的过程，以及研究结果证实了跑步者和健身爱好者多年来的怀疑：在锻炼时听音乐对你的耐力有好处。
32．Why did Shami's team conduct the research?
A．To test the effect of music on health.
B．To know the cause of failure in sports.
C．To improve runners' exercise tolerance.
D．To record the body change of participants.
C 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段内容及第二段中的“How do you get those extra seconds of energy? A research team at the Texas Tech University developed a study to measure what effect listening to music would have on exercise tolerance.”可知，德克萨斯理工大学的一个研究小组开展了一项研究，以衡量听音乐对锻炼耐力的影响。由此可知，沙弥的小组进行该研究的目的是怎样提高运动耐力。故选C。
33．What did the researchers find about the participants in the stress testing?
A．They ran much faster than average runners.
B．They created a new record of indoor sports.
C．They could run a little longer with music on.
D．They all enjoyed extreme physical challenge.
C 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The group that listened to music was able to outlast the nonmusic group by an average of 50.6 seconds.”可知，听音乐的那一组比不听音乐的那一组平均多坚持了50.6秒。由此可知，音乐对测试者的运动耐力有一定影响，听音乐可以使他们坚持更长时间。故选C。
34．What do the underlined words “a nobrainer” mean in paragraph 4?
A．A dull activity. B．A foolish action.
C．A demanding task. D．An easy practice.
D 解析：词义猜测题。根据下文中的“but ‘after 30 minutes, you feel like you are running up a mountain, so even being able to go 50 seconds longer means a lot’”可知，30分钟后你感觉自己好像在爬山，所以即使能多跑50秒也意义重大。由此推断，but表示转折，说明上文的意思是能够多跑一分钟，一开始好像是很容易的练习。因此画线词意为“容易的练习”。故选D。
35．What did Shami suggest us doing in the last paragraph?
A．Developing a daily exercise routine.
B．Listening to music while working out.
C．Participating in physical stress testing.
D．Taking exercise as doctors recommend.
B 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的最后两句可知，沙弥的研究结果证实了这样一个观点，即欢快的音乐可以帮助你锻炼的时间更长，并能坚持日常锻炼。当医生建议锻炼时，他们可能也会建议听音乐。由此可知，沙弥建议我们锻炼时听音乐。故选B。
第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)

Five Steps to Better Handwriting
Some kids love handwriting, but others hate when it's time to put their pen to paper. Maybe they are worried about their handwriting. Are you one of them? 36. Here are five steps that really work!
Get a great grasp
Try this—hold your pencil at the top and try to write your name. Pretty hard? But when you hold your pencil the correct way, writing is much easier. 37. Hold it in place with your thumb, and your index (食指) and middle fingers.
Let the lines be your guide
Lined paper is your friend! Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and proportion (均衡). 38. Also be sure to fill up the lined space completely. Those capital letters should be from the bottom line to the top one.
Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. If you rush, it's hard to control where you stop and start your letters.
Lower the pressure
39． That makes it harder to make the smooth lines. Try easing up and don't hold the pencil too tightly.
40．
Lots of games require you to write or draw pictures. So even though it's not schoolwork, you're still using the skills you need to control your pen better.
A．Play games
B．Ask for more advice
C．So “a” should be half the height of a capital “A”．
D．You've been writing since you were a little kid.
E．Some kids press down really hard when they write.
F．The good news is that just about everyone can improve their handwriting.
G．The best way to hold a pen or pencil is to let it rest next to the base of your thumb.
【解题导语】 本文主要介绍了提高书写水平的五种方法。
36．F 解析：根据空后的“Here are five steps that really work！”可知，下文是介绍练就一手好字的五个方法，F选项(好消息是几乎每个人都可以提高自己的书法水平)能承接下文，且选项中的handwriting和空前内容相呼应。故选F。
37．G 解析：根据本段的标题“Get a great grasp”和空前后的内容可知，G选项中的hold a pen or pencil和上文的hold your pencil相呼应，thumb和下文的内容相呼应，且本段主要讲述的是注意握笔的姿势，G选项(拿钢笔或铅笔的最好方法是让它停在你的拇指底部旁边)能承接上下文。故选G。
38．C 解析：根据空前的“Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and proportion.”可知，C选项(所以“a”应该是大写“A”的一半高)在语义上是因果关系，且选项中的A和a与上文提到的the right size、proportion相呼应。故选C。
39．E 解析：根据本段标题“Lower the pressure”和下文的“That makes it harder to make the smooth lines.”可知，E选项中的press和标题相呼应，hard和下文的harder相呼应，且语义(有些孩子在写字的时候非常用力)承接下文。故选E。
40．A 解析：根据篇章结构可知，此处应选择一个段落标题，再根据空后的“Lots of games require you to write or draw pictures.”可知，本段主要讲的是玩游戏也可以锻炼写字技巧。故选A。

Dear Jim，
Having learned that you'll be a senior high school student, I am delighted. In your last email you mentioned that you were confused about how to study well in your senior high school. Now, I'd like to share my study tips with you.
First, you'd better communicate with your teachers regularly. In this way, they may offer some great advice on both your study and life. Second, why not involve yourself in each class actively, listen to the teacher attentively and take notes carefully so that you can review later? Third, it's a good idea to do your homework on time soon after school, which will help you practice what you have learned and make it fresh in your mind.
I sincerely hope my advice can be helpful to you and then you can enjoy your new school life. Best wishes!
Yours，
Li Hua
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The Butterfly in a Bottle
Poltu was wide awake in his bed. He had had a marvelous dream in which he had won the football match in the interschool competition. He was getting ready to receive the trophy when the alarm rang, so loudly that it jarred him awake.
But Poltu wasn't too unhappy at the intrusion. He ran straight to his study table. There, in an empty jam bottle, was the treasure. A colourful little butterfly. How difficult it had been to catch it. It had kept flying away from his grasp. But catch it he did, without a net, too. And now it was going to be part of his biology project in school.
The biology project required Poltu to submit the study of a living creature every month. Most of his classmates drew diagrams from their books as part of this exercise. But Poltu was going to do something different. He was going to present a live creature—this butterfly.
Poltu loved the different colours on the wings of the butterfly, red, green and blue. How beautiful it looked when it fluttered the wings! Poltu had made a few holes on the cap of the bottle to let air pass through, and added tender leaves for the butterfly to nibble on. He might have trapped the creature, but he cared for it.
Excited about displaying his exhibit to the biology teacher, Poltu dressed hurriedly, and left for school. His school was walking distance from his house. He took a short cut through the backyard of Sinha aunty's house, a stretch he loved walking through. The breeze was very pleasant as it had rained slightly the previous night. The garden smelt of sweetsmelling flowers, jasmine and “mogra”. Poltu glanced at his bottle every now and then and smiled at the butterfly fluttering its wings.
When he reached school, the gate wasn't wholly open yet. For once Poltu was early to school. A few boys were playing football in the field. Any other day would have seen Poltu joining them without a second thought. But today, he walked straight into his class. He opened the bench window and placed the bottle on the windowsill.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。

One possible version：
The golden rays of the sun streamed through the glass, on the delicate wings of the butterfly, and added a shine to them. The butterfly looked simply beautiful in the sunshine. In a few minutes, the window was surrounded with boys, looking admirably. In the biology class, Poltu's teacher praised him for presenting a live creature which made it possible for the class to study a living creature so closely. Poltu felt like a star.
While going back home, he again took his favourite route through Sinha aunty's garden. In the bottle, the butterfly didn't make a move. Poltu shook the bottle but still there was no response. Poltu was scared all of a sudden. He opened the lid and let in some fresh air, which made the butterfly move a little. Standing in the garden, and looking at a few birds jumping in the trees, Poltu slowly shook the bottle gently. The butterfly came out and then off it flew. Holding the empty bottle, he felt empty himself, but happy that he had sent the butterfly back to nature.
