They are extremely strong and interact with their environment through their senses. Compared to us, they see better, hear better, have a better sense of smell, and can feel the smallest insect on their bodies.HearingHorses have excellent hearing, better than that of humans. They can focus one ear on the rider and one ear on something else. Noise created by traffic, wind, and other distractions (分心的事物) can greatly affect their hearing, and cause horses to become scared. Though horses in more complex environments can be used to disturbing noises after repeated exposure to (暴露于) them, all these sounds and many others can scare horses unfamiliar with them, making it difficult for riders to keep control.SmellHorses have an excellent sense of smell, much better than that of humans. They may use smell to find their way back. and they can tell differences in the smell of water. Most horses are happy to drink muddy water from a puddle (水坑) because it has a natural smell, but they may refuse to drink from an unfamiliar source. Many riders travel with an old water bucket so their horses will welcome water in the campground.TouchHorses are so sensitive to touch that they can feel a fly land on a single hair. Slight pressure from a riders legs can guide a horse forward and anything touching its body hair can alert (使警觉) the animal to trouble. CuriositySome horses are exceptionally curious. Their curiosity leads them to explore anything new in their environment. They smell, push, move, pick up, or play with new objects within their reach. They may use their teeth or kneel to reach underneath fences for something they want. 21The underlined word “scared” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_”.Apuzzled Bfrightened Ccurious Dcalm22Riders are advised to travel with an old water bucket because _.Atheir horses prefer to drink from a puddle Bthere isnt enough water in the campgroundCwater with a familiar smell is welcomed by their horsesDtheir horses need a familiar smell to find their way back23How will horses do when they are curious about something outside their fences?A. They try their best to reach the thing. B. They use their feet to touch the thing.C. They focus their eyes on the thing. D. They struggle to get out of their fences.24Whats the best title for the passage?AComparison between horses senses and humans BHow horses use their hearing and smellC. Why horses are called a marvel of creation D. A brief introduction to horses sensesBLocated in Pisa, the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy has become the sign of Italy. It is the third oldest structure in Pisas Cathedral Square. There are eight floors in the Leaning Tower of Pisa including observation deck at the top. The weight of the tower is about 14,500 metric tons. There are amazing facts of the Leaning Tower of Pisa that we will mention here.The Leaning Tower of Pisa was not originally intended to lean, but because it was built on soft soils the tower gradually leaned to one side. Because of its restoration (修复) from 1990 to 2001, the tower had a tilt (倾斜) of 5.5 degrees and more famous than before. Many people think that it will fall one day. Millions of tourists come to the lawns around the tower to take the classic photo pretending to hold up or knock down the tower.It is said that you must visit the Leaning Tower of Pisa during the day. At night the shops are closed and it appears unimpressive. But, if you plan to visit on a full moon night, the tower will look charming. Mornings are the best time to beat the crowds. Summer in Pisa is very hot and wet, but you can expect rain in fall and winter.Even though some people regard the tower to be an engineering failure owing to the tilt, the tower has acquired a special place in history. The tower has also been used for experiments by the famous Italian scientist named Galileo Galilei. He is believed to have thrown two balls of different mass from the tower to prove that their falling time is not related to their mass.On your tour you should not miss various places of interest near the Leaning Tower of Pisa including Lucca, Florence, and Santa Maria della Spina.25Why does the tower tend to lean to one side?ABecause the base of the tower was not strong.BBecause it was originally designed like that.CBecause many people came to knock it down.DBecause the builders used lots of soft soils.26What has made the tower much more famous?AIt will fall to the ground in the near future.BIt is an obvious engineering failure.CGalileo once did experiments on the tower.DThe restoration lasted more than ten years.27When is the best time to visit the tower without being disturbed?AIn summer. BAt night. CIn the morning. DIn winter. CGrowing up in one of the toughest neighborhoods in New York City, my life was not always easy. My mother raised us in a city-owned apartment and my father suffered from drug problems. However, there was love at home. Quite often, my mother would have movie nights with us. One night, my mom came home with the movieTo Sir, With Love, starring Sidney Poitier. In this movie, Mr. Poitier played a handsome, well-dressed, educated but strict teacher. As I watched, I was reminded of someone who I admired Mr. John Walker.Mr. Walker was my fifth-grade teacher. I remember getting my report card on the last day of fourth grade and seeing the words “New Teacher: Mr. Walker”. I was excited because Id never had a male teacher before. On my first day of fifth grade, Mr. Walker laid down the class rules. I sat at my desk nervously, thinking,“How do I get out of his class?” I had no idea his class would be one of the most influential times in my life.Mr. Walker always brought active things to our lives. He would give us weekly speeches, telling us that we didnt have to be products of our environments doing bad things or spending a life in prison. Mr. Walker always told us that we could do anything we wanted to do.The first time I ever left New York City was for a school trip on a farm that Mr. Walker arranged for us. It was an overnight trip. We prepared for months by holding bake sales to raise money. Mr. Walker worked so hard. He wanted us to experience life outside of our own small world.One day, Mr. Walker said we could put on a play in class. He said, “Waliek, this is your chance to show us what youve got, so if you want the lead part, youd better go home and learn it by tomorrow.” I ran home and remembered the whole play in one night. I think I did this more for Mr. Walker. He knew that I wanted to be an entertainer (表演者) and he believed in me. So he gave me that chance.Another day, the school had a special performance and we noticed that Mr. Walker brought a special briefcase with him. As the host called on him, our class became nervous with excitement and curiosity. He opened his special briefcase and pulled out a gold trumpet (喇叭). Before he started, he devoted his performance to all the students, especially our class. It was the most beautiful music Id ever heard. I was so shocked and amazed. My teacher was not only one of the coolest, best dressed, educated men, but he was also an entertainer just like me.When I created mylist of people who had a great influence on me, there was no doubt in my mind that Mr. Walker topped my list. He changed the course of my life.28Why is Sidney Poitier mentioned in Paragraph 1?ATo introduce Mr. John Walker. BTo remember the authors difficult childhood.CTo recall the movie nights. DTo review a movie.29On hearing the class rules given by Mr. Walker, the author _.Awas excited Bdisliked them Cwas embarrassed Dthought them important30What can we learn about the author from the passage?AHe went to the cinema quite often during childhood.BHe never left New York City during childhood.CHe liked performing very much.DHis father died from drug use.31Which would be the best title for the passage?AA great entertainer BMy family and our problemsCTough time, valuable experience DTo Walker, with love DIn Europe，many people make friends across the borders through town twinningTwo towns in different countries decide to become twin towns. Their citizens find penfriends in the twin townThey exchange newspapers and stampsThe school teachers discuss teaching methods with the teachers in the twin townOfficials visit the twin town for celebrationsOrdinary citizens travel to the town，too，but not very often if it is far away Sometimes，schools even exchange school classes for two or three weeksFor example，German middle school students study for a while at the school in their twin town in Britain，staying with British familiesA few months later，their British friends come to study in Germany Some towns even arrange exchange visits for theatre groups，choirs and orchestras （管弦乐队）Others send lecturers to the twin town who tell the people there all about their own town，and show photos and slidesSome towns organize exhibitions to show works of art，for example paintings，by artists from their own town Many British towns are so pleased with the result of the twinning that they set out to find more that one twin town. Tonbridge, a mediumsized town in Kent，for example，has twin towns in Germany and in FranceRichmond near London has links with Germany，France and a town in former Yugoslavia(前南斯拉夫) Town twinning can help make friends and help people to learn from each otherIt helps students to improve their language skills, and it contributes to international peace and understanding32.Altogether _ countries are mentioned in this passageA. 4 B. 5 C. 6 D. 733.Which of the following cant be found in this passage？ _ A.

However, roommates living together under the same roof for a long time unavoidably conflict(冲突) with each other. 36._. To prevent this from happening to you, each conflict should be addressed in a productive, healthy way.Set a time for discussion.Once conflicts occur, you need to set up a time to discuss the conflict. 37._ They may think about any problems they want to discuss. It also allows for a better discussion as the both roommates will most likely enter the discussion quite calm. Make rules for discussionBefore discussing the actual conflicts, set up some rules to guide the discussion. For example, each roommate is allowed to air one problem at a time and the other roommate has a chance to respond to it before another one is brought up. Making rules beforehand can prevent a screaming match from breaking out. 38 _. 39._You can use your discussion to point out to your roommates their great traits(特征，品质) and specific things you like about them. While this wont solve the conflict, it can help your roommates be more understanding of your point of view and more willing to compromise(让步，妥协). Come up with a written roommate agreementOnce grievances（不满）have been put forward by both parties you should develop a roommate agreement that is written down. This agreement should discuss what the rules are as well as what consequences(后果) exist for breaking them. For example, roommates having a conflict about overnight guests may compromise to allow overnight guests only on weekends with guests on weekdays being gone by 11 p. m. 40._A. Point out good things about roommates B. Talk about your problems openlyC. Being honest can avoid unfriendly discussionD. And disaster can strike when a conflict never gets settled E. This provides both parties (双方)a chance for preparationF. This is because both sides know they will have an opportunity to speak. G. A consequence may be that the violator(违反者)pays $ 5 for breaking the rules.第三部分 语言知识运用 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）I sat with my friend in a coffee shop.
