The same goes for high-profile CEOs of world recogn

11、ized companies as well. Lets have a look at the favorite books of some of the world-famous CEOs.Apple CEOTim Cook, Competing against Time by George Stalk Jr. and Thomas M. HoutThis book is based on 10 years of valuable research done by the authors. It talks about how new concepts of managing time in

12、 new product development, production and sales provide companies with the advantages to succeed in this highly competitive world.Microsoft CEO(Former)Bill Gates, The Catcher in the Rye by J.DSalingerA few themes explored in the novel are rebellion（叛逆）, anxiety and confusion. It tells that young peop

13、le are a little confused, but can be smart about things and see things that adults dont really see. Gates said, “ I didnt actually read The Catcher in the Rye until I was 13, and ever since then Ive said thats my favorite book.”Oracle CEOLarry Ellison, Napoleon by Vincent CroninThis book is consider

14、ed by far the best biography ever written on Napoleon Bonaparte. Ellison said, Its interesting to read about him for a couple of reasons: to see what an ordinary man can do with his life and to see how history can distort（歪曲）the truth entirely.OWE CEO Oprah Winfrey, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper L

15、eeThis book talks about how a little girl observes the people around her. Winfrey said, “ I read it in eighth or ninth grade, and I was trying to recommend the book to other kids. So it makes sense to me that now I have a book club, because I have been doing that probably since I read this book.”1、W

16、hat is the theme of Competing Against Time?AHow to increase production.BHow to improve efficiency.CHow to enrich experience.DHow to save energy.2、Which book may be chosen by parents to learn about rebellious kids?ACompeting against Time.BThe Catcher in the Rye.CNapoleon.DTo Kill a Mockingbird.3、What

17、 can be inferred from Winfreys words?AShe loved reading when young.BShe read the book with other kids.CThe book has an influence on her career.DThe book is about a girls thoughts.22（8分） If you buy a washing machine, a fridge or a television in Europe, it comes with a sticker. Thanks to a 1992 EU rul

18、e, all appliances must be labelled (贴标签) with their energy efficiency. So why has our food system-which threatens 10,000 species with extinction, produces about 30% of greenhouse gases, and drives 800/o of our air pollution-only ever had voluntary eco-labels?The appliances ruling had a huge impact;

19、initially, 75% of fridges and freezers were rated G to D(low efficiency) , but today 98% are classed A+ or A+. Worldwide, the energy efficiency of labelled appliances has increased three times faster than appliances without labels. Introducing an equal system for food could have an even bigger impac

20、t.Mandatory environmental labels would change how we produce and consume in far-reaching ways. First, producers would have to measure their impacts in a uniform way and be accountable for the results. This would not be expensive: it is free to monitor environmental impacts using digital tools such a

21、s Field print and the Cool Farm Tool. Second, they support sustainable consumption. Our research found that products that look, taste and cost the same can have dramatically different environmental impacts. High-impact beef producers use 5,400% more land and create l,000% more greenhouse gases than

22、low-impact producers. Labels would allow consumers to tell these products apart.They would highlight both high-and low-impact producers, in the same way, across multiple products. This would encourage more people to think about their choices by exposing them to the facts every time they are in the s

23、hops. We can also use labels to turn smaller consumer changes into large environmental benefits: because a small number of producers create a large share of the impact, simply avoiding high-impact producers can make a huge contribution to pollution reductions.1、Why does the author mention the applia

24、nces in Paragraph 1 ？ATo applaud the 1992 EU rule.BTo bring up the topic of labelling food.CTo point out the pollution they caused.DTo compare their energy consumption rates.2、What do the figures in Paragraph 2 show?AThe importance of saving energy.BThe debate about eco-labelled appliances.CThe effe

25、ctiveness of the appliances ruling.DThe problem caused by appliances of low efficiency.3、What does the word “Mandatory” in Paragraph 3 mean?ACompulsory.BEffective.CDifferent.DIndependent.4、What can be learned about eco-labels?AThey will increase the profits of low-impact producers.BThey can show pro

26、ducers environmental impacts.CThey will guide consumers to buy healthier food.DThey can expose consumers to more products23（8分）Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life.In som

27、e modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free education for all whether rich or poor, clever or stupid - one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries

28、a far larger number of people with university degree refuse to do what they think to be “low” work, and, in fact, working with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more imp

29、ortant than that of a professor. We can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our towns.In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that

30、we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that is very bad to be ashamed of ones work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to so

31、ciety.1、According to the passage, the purpose of education is _.Ato build a perfect worldBto choose a system of educationCto let everyone receive education fit for himDto prepare children mainly for their future work2、Which of the following is True according to the passage?AIts hard for university g

32、raduates to find jobs.BNo one would like to do work with hands.CEducation is not enough to build a perfect nation.DUniversity graduates are ashamed of their work.3、In the writers opinion, _.Aall the social problems cant be solved by educationBfree education for ail probably leads to a perfect worldC

33、free education won t help to solve social problemsDeducation can settle all of the worlds problems24（8分）How would you describe your style? Formal? Classical? Casual? Smart? First of all, what is style? Lets hear a few words of wisdom from the wise. “Style is knowing who you are and what you want to

34、say,” (Gore Vidal); “Style is an expression of individualism mixed with charm,” (John Fairchild); “Style is the perfection of a point of view,” (Robert Eberhart); “Style is a simple way of saying complicated things,” (Jean Cocteau); “Style is the dress of thoughts,” (Lord Chesterfield).So, now you k

35、now what style is, youll need to buy some clothes. But where? In the UK, you can get really cheap, stylish, second-hand clothes at charity shops. Theyre great if you want exclusive labels but dont want to pay the price. The only difficulty is discovering where the really good bargains are. But dont

36、worry, Leila Gray can help you here. Shes the proud owner of a vintage Hardy Amies coat, picked up at a charity shop for 20-a good deal when you realize it cost more than 800 new. “You have to go to the richer areas of a city,” she says. “Thats where all the labels are. It can take a bit of hunting

37、around, but that is half the fun, and theres a lot of buried treasure just waiting to be discovered.”So, now you know where to buy your new, stylish clothes, how do you acquire your style? Experts say that mixing and matching from charity shops can help you find your own style-something thats really

38、 you. Thats what Scottish musician Morus did. “My fashion tip is this,” he says, “Look at yourself with the eye of a graphic designer. If you cant be attractive, aim for interesting or original.” Momus unique style could even make him happier, too. As psychologist Marilyn Elias explains, the happies

39、t people “judge themselves by their own yardsticks, never against what others do or have”.Shoichi Aoki, the founder of Japanese street style magazine FRUiTS, agrees. “I think real fashion is what people wear on the streets, the clothes that they wear, the way that they wear them,” he says. “What you

40、 see in fashion magazines and on models has been styled and its more commercial.” He says that his inspiration for FRUiTS came from people combining traditional Japanese clothing such as the kimono and “geta” (Japanese wooden clogs) with Western fashion. “This really caught my eye,” Aoki adds. These

41、 styles may seem wild, but Aokis idea is not: be bold, be creative and find something that suits you.Maybe its time to create your own look. There are many online guides to help you. Perhaps the best advice comes from a website called wikiHow, “If you see something you like,” it says, “feel free to

42、copy, but dont make yourself a clone mix it up and make it yours.” Think about it!1、What should you first do to choose they style that best suits you?AFollow the images of the wise people. BGo for whatever is fashionable.CSimplify complicated expressions. DFigure out what a true style is.2、What does

43、 the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to?AGetting clothes of leading brands. BBuying clothes at rather low prices.CSearching for really good bargains. DStarting a charity shop selling clothes.3、What is the focus of Shoichi Aoki and his magazine FRUiTS?ACommercialization of fashion magazin

44、es.BExpression of something personal and creative.CDesigning fashionable wear for men in the street.DPromoting Japanese traditional clothing worldwide.4、What is probably the best title for the passage?AHow to find the style that suits you BWhere to pick up a bargainCWhat to wear to develop your styl

45、e DWhom to model to be popular25（10分） For the past two years I have been travelling and living abroad. Home has become more of a feeling than a place. I feel at home when I am with my family in London, but I also feel at home in Italy with friends I love. Home is no longer a picture of a house with

46、a front door and some windows. It is more complicated than that.This is one of the reasons that celebrating the new year has become very important for me. I do not care about New Years resolutions(愿望)” - living abroad has made me constantly reconsider what kind of person I want to be and how I will

47、live my life, so I dont feel the need to plan for change: I live for change.New Years Eve has become my time to reconnect with the friends that makes me feel at home. Every year we try to reunite wherever we are and remember the time when we knew each other so well that we felt like a family. It is

48、a moment to reconnect and get to know each other again. Last year, we travelled to a cottage in Ireland where we had no internet and no neighbours. In the middle of the countryside, away from our big and constantly changing lives, we were able to become like a little family again.This year, we went

49、to Barcelona. It was a very big change. We were surrounded by culture and life and joy. There were bars and parties. It was different, but one thing stayed very much the same-I felt at home again and we felt like a family again.A lot of people feel that New Years Eve cannot live up to expectations.

50、Ideas such as the New Years kiss and resolutions create a lot of pressure for people to have a night to remember, a night that will change their lives and perhaps make the next year one worth living. I think those people are missing the point. If Christmas is about family, why cant New Year be about

51、 friends?1、What does the underlined word It in Paragraph I probably mean?AFamily.BLiving abroad.CHome.DStaying with friends.2、Why doesnt the author care about New Years resolutions?ANew Years resolutions cannot be reached.BHis lifestyle makes him always ready for change.CIts meaningless to make any

52、big changes in life.DMaking New Years resolutions creates much pressure.3、What does the author try to convey through his experiences in Ireland and Barcelona?ALife is peaceful and enjoyable.BLiving abroad is a happy experience.CStaying with friends makes one feel at home.DTravelling abroad enriches

53、ones life experience.4、Which of the following can be the best title for the text?ANew Years Celebration:How?BTrue Friendship: What?CLiving Abroad: Comfortable or Complicated?DChange:Plan it or Make it?第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项26（30分）Have you ever b
