11、hile you are traveling, you should keep notes of things you see and do,” he explained.I was 20 years old, a junior in college, spending a term at the University of London. Charles was a retired traveling salesman. I was staying with him in his cottage in Kendal, located in the Lake District of north

12、ern England. It was a one-week homestay the university arranged for us before classes began.I took his advice. I wrote in the notebook every day during the homestay. Back in London, I recorded weekend trips to Wales, Yorkshire, France, and Spain. I commented on my classes, professors, and classmates

13、. I contrasted my life at a small college in the US with my wandering through the streets of London, my introduction to life in a big city, and my initial travels outside the US. I tracked ideas I had about my life and my future.When I wrote in the notebook, I struggled with a sense of my audience a

14、nd purpose. Who would read this? Were these writings just for me, or did I want others to read them? Was I recording events and ideas just as a prompt(提示) to memory, or was there some larger purpose for this daily exercise?I knew I was recording events, thoughts, words that were important to my life

15、. I imagined a future me sitting down to read the pages. I wondered what it would feel like to read those words later. I wondered where I would be and what my life would be like.I filled the notebook Charles gave me. I bought a new one and filled it. Then another and another. I continued writing in

16、notebooks for four decades. By that time, they filled two boxes in my garage.I had reread some of the journals. Specific volumes had provided me with the background I needed for dozens of articles for magazines. But I had never read them all. Recently, I decided to bring my collection of notebooks i

17、nto my office and replay my life. As I opened the first box, I suddenly became nervous would I like the former me described on those pages? There was a risk in opening that first notebook. I did it anyway.Charles had been right. I remembered the big events and the central happenings, but on each pag

18、e were many details I hadnt retained(保留).The pages revealed highlights from college classes and stories about roommates and friends. I read anxious comments Id written as Id launched my teaching career, learned to write lesson plants, assigned grades for student work, and solved discipline problems.

19、 I reflected on my coming marriage, then the wedding, and eventually the proud moments when I held each of my three girls as a father. I recounted more tripsreturning to Europe, teaching in South America, going on safari(游獵) in Africa, and exploring Greenland. I relived memories of trails hit, river

20、s crossed, and mountains climbed.The writings in those journals framed my life. I hadnt written every day. I often skipped a few days or even weeks, but I always picked up the writing when it felt important. Journals went with me when I traveled, and I often wrote in them at school when my own stude

21、nts were writing.It took several long evenings to read through the notebooks, taking me on tour spanning(持續(xù)) 42 years. As I read I could recall sitting on a bench in Trafalgar Square in London or in our apartment in Peru to write to the future me. It was then that I realized: I am now the person I w

22、as writing to throughout those years.1、What can we learn about Charles Lee?AHe was an Englishman the author came across.BHe gave the author a notebook as birthday present.CThe author gained valuable experience of life from him.DThe author once lived in his house as a college graduate.2、One reason wh

23、y the author kept writing journals was that he wanted to _.Alet others read what he wrote in the futureBlive up to Charles Lees expectation for himCknow what his life would be like in the futureDleave something special to his three daughters3、How did the author feel when he opened the first box fill

24、ed with his journals?ACurious. BWorried. CSurprised. DDisappointed.4、By mentioning the highlights in Paragraph 10, the author intends to tell us _.Athe regrets he had about his lifeBthe benefits of keeping journalsCthe big events that happened to himDthe themes of his articles for magazines5、We can

25、learn from the passage that the author _.Ararely wrote journals at schoolBkeeps a daily journal of his lifeCeven wrote journals when travelingDhad kept writing journals for five decades6、What would be the best title for the passage?ARereading my journals BMy interesting experience of lifeCA red note

26、book DA gift to my future self22（8分） Susan Sontag (19332004) was one of the most noticeable figures in the world of literature.For more than 40 years she made it morally necessary to know everythingto read every book worth reading, to see every movie worth seeing.When she was still in her early 30s,

27、 publishing essays in such important magazines as Partisan Review, she appeared as the symbol of American culture life, trying hard to follow every new development in literature, film and art.With great effort and serious judgment, Sontag walked at the latest edges of world culture.Seriousness was o

28、ne of Sontags lifelong mottos, but at a time when the barriers between the well-educated and the poorly-educated were obvious, she argued for a true openness to the pleasure of pop culture.In Notes Camp, the 1964 essay that first made her name, she explained what was then a little-known set of diffi

29、cult understandings, through which she could not have been more famous.Notes on Camp, she wrote, represents “a victory of form over content, beauty over morals”.By conviction(信念) she was a sensualist(感覺(jué)論者), but by nature she was a moralist, and in the works she published in the 1970s and 1980s, it w

30、as the latter side of her that came forward.In Illness as Metaphorpublished in 1978, after she suffered cancershe argued against the idea that cancer was somehow a special problem of repressed (被壓抑的) personalities, a concept that effectively blamed the victim for the disease.In fact, re-examining ol

31、d concepts was her lifelong habit.In America, her story of a 19th century Polish actress who set up a perfect society in California, won the National Book Award in 2000.But what made her achieve lasting fame was a tireless, all-purpose cultural view.“Sometimes,” she once said, “I feel that, in the e

32、nd, all I am really defending is the idea of seriousness, of true seriousness.”And in the end, she made us take it seriously too.1、It is implied but not stated in the first paragraph that Sontag .Awas a symbol of American cultural lifeBdeveloped world literature, film and artsCpublished many essays

33、about world cultureDkept pace with the newest development of world culture2、She first won her name through .Apublishing essays in magazines like Partisan ReviewBher story of a Polish actressCher explanation of a set of difficult understandingsDher book Illness as Metaphor3、From the works Susan publi

34、shed in the 1970s and 1980s, we can learn that .Ashe was more of a moralist than a sensualistBshe was more of a sensualist than a moralistCshe believed repressed personalities mainly led to illnessDShe would like to re-examine old positions4、According to the passage, Susan Sontag would agree to the

35、ideas except .AWe should try hard to follow every new development in literature, film and art.BCancer can be defeated because it is a special problem of repressed personalities.CForm should be over content, beauty should be over morals.DWe should defend the idea of seriousness, of true seriousness.5

36、、What is the passage mainly about?AA lifelong motto: seriousness.BSusan Sontag is the symbol of American culture.CHow Susan Sontag became famous.DAn introduction to Susan Sontag and her motto.23（8分）I remember my childhood summers fondly, as many of us do. Those golden days in which I would leave the

37、 house after a still sleepy, leisurely breakfast and come home only for lunch in the middle of a day spent entirely outdoors. We did not live in town and, thus, playmates were limited to siblings (兄弟姐妹) and the cousins who lived down the road.Our backyard became the playground in which our imaginati

38、ons would run wildturning those few acres into magical forests, the creek (小溪) into a violent river and our trusty dog, Rex, into the many roles of horse, monster and any other creature that we children did not want to play. By the end of the three months of summer break we were sunburned from our h

39、ours in the sun, full of the memories of a thousand magical moments and bonded to our siblings in a way that winters forced hibernation (冬眠) never seemed to connect us.Today, I live on the same acreage that I did as a child. My children have the blessing of having the same grassy patches to scratch

40、their bare feet as they run through it, the same creek to stomp(跺腳)through, and not the same dogbut their very own energetic pup to imagine away the days with.However, this is not the same world as it was twenty, thirty years ago. There are screens everywhere in the house to demand attentiontelevisi

41、ons with hundreds of channels, computers with access to a thousand entertaining sites, tablets stocked with apps. There is also no longer the expectation of a stretch of an unscheduled three months. Their school friends tell competitive stories of carefully planned vacations, spending time traveling

42、 to all of the local attractionsvarious parks, the zoo, the science center, all of the festivals which come breezing through town. On the very first day of school they will be asked to list their favorite activities of the summer and no longer are these lists filled with things like finding wood to

43、make a bridge over a creek or a day spent in imaginative play with their siblings. The lists are now full of trips, overscheduled days and “camps” that no longer offer a stay in nature.Our children have become used to being entertained every minute. In our house, we have limits on electronics and ki

44、ck the kids outside on a nice day. Even as we try as parents to set limits and get our children out in nature, the new cry of childhood seems to be “Im bored,” which is not really just meaning “Im bored,” “but “Please find something to entertain me, as I no longer can entertain myself even for a sho

45、rt period of time.” Our children no longer know how to sit in silence, entertain themselves while even waiting for a few minutes and have lost the awe of nature as they have become addicted to screen time.We have made a choice in this household to do what is no longer expected of children in many ho

46、useholdswe will ensure that there are days of “boredom.” We refuse to spend our days scheduling our childrens every hour. There will be many days with no plans at all, when they will be sent outside with only the grass and the trees and their own imaginations to entertain them.The screens will be tu

47、rned off and our children will find that times of quiet can be just as or even more entertaining. They will bond with their brother and sister, making memories that they will replay in their minds well into adulthood. Even though sunscreen will be religiously applied, they will leave summer with sun

48、burned and scratches coming from climbing trees, stomping through creeks and chasing the dog in the field.This summer I will be giving my children the greatest gift of allboredom. For inside boredom is the gift of getting to know your own mind, of finding comfort and joy in nature and in the realiza

49、tion that the greatest gifts are experience, not things.1、From the first two paragraphs we can know that the author .Aparticipated in many organized activitiesBenjoyed an unscheduled vacationCexplored magical forests and a violent riverDrealized the strength of patience2、The author thinks todays chi

50、ldrens activities are .Aless meaningfulBless accessibleCmore related to natureDmore in line with the nature of play3、What is the real reason for childrens feeling of boredom?AChildren are addicted to screen time.BChildren are limited to using electronics.CChildren have no patience with everything.DC

51、hildren lack the experience of exploring entertainment.4、What is the authors attitude towards his childrens childhood?ASympathetic.BEnvious.CUnsatisfactory.DIndifferent.5、What is he authors purpose to ensure children the days of “boredom”?ATo keep children away from electronics.BTo encourage childre

52、n to climb trees and stomp through creeks.CTo set aside more time to improve their academic performance.DTo provide children with the opportunity to seek happiness in nature.6、What might be the best title of the passage?AThe gift of boredomBThe memory of childhoodCThe attraction of natureDThe experi

53、ence of two generations24（8分） Every year in America, highschool students who want to go to college take a national examination called the Scholastic Aptitude Test, or SAT in a shortened way. Their score is an important factor in determining which colleges will admit them or whether any will be admit

54、ted at all. The Scholastic Aptitude Test measures ones mathematical ability and use of the English language. Traditionally, the English part involved grammatical questions and paragraphs that test reading comprehension.But the SAT folks have added a single question, to be answered in an essay, handw

55、ritten on the spot. Thats an interesting way to test writing ability, but content aside, have you ever seen young peoples handwriting lately? Or anyones for that matter, in this age of computer keyboards? Students write numbers and sign their names on bank checks. They scribble class notes in what c

56、an generously be described as the written word.Yet todays kids are asked to write, thoughtfully and clearly, for several minutes on this SAT Test. Good luck to the text scorers who must work out difficultly the scrawl (潦草的字跡) of young people whove been typing on computers since the age of three! Tea

57、chers insist that good handwriting can not only help ones score on the SAT, but also, later on in life, impress potential employers. And dont forget, we all have to turn to handwriting from time to time, as computers go down when power goes out.Then how to improve the handwriting? Well, with a few s

58、imple steps you can improve your handwriting.Position the pen. You should hold the pen between the forefinger and the thumb, then rest it near the first knuckle (指節(jié)) of the middle finger. The rest of your fingers should be curled (卷曲) under your hand and your hand should remain relaxed.Evaluate your

59、 writing. Make changes to your letters till you like how they look.Take your time. Speed is bound to make your writing messylooking.Practise. Practise it a lot; its not enough to do it once and hope for the best. It has to be something you work at to make great improvements.1、The underlined word scr

60、ibble in Paragraph 2 probably means _.Awrite quickly and roughlyBtype simply and correctlyCpaint clearly and neatlyDdescribe properly and well2、According to Paragraph 3, students with good handwriting skill_.Acan pass the SATBcan develop good charactersCcan impress their classmatesDcan get more job
