第一部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Doctors in hospital emergency rooms(急诊室) often see accidental poisonings(中毒). A frightened parent arrives with a child who swallowed a cleaning liquid. Or perhaps the harmful substance is a medicine. Or it might be a product meant to kill insects. These are common causes of accidental poisonings.
In cases like these, seek medical help as soon as possible. Save the container of Whatever caused the poisoning. And look on the container for information about anything that stops the effects of the poison. Save anything expelled from the mouth of the victim. That way, doctors can examine it.
Millions of people know how to give abdominal thrusts(腹部按压) to save a person choking on something trapped in the throat. The American Red Cross says a rescuer should first hit the person on the back five times between the shoulder bones. If the airway is still blocked, the Red Cross suggests pushing hard five times along the victim’s abdomen. You can do these abdominal thrusts by getting directly behind a sitting or standing person.
The Mayo Clinic health centres suggest several steps if bleeding is severe. First, if possible, remove dirt from the wound and press on it with a clean cloth or piece of clothing. In the past, people were advised to stop severe bleeding with a tourniquet(止血带). But experts now say tourniquets are dangerous because they can crush(挤压) major arteries and nerves. If a wound seems infected, let the victim rest. Physical activity can spread the infection. Treat the wound with a mixture of salt and water until medical help arrives.
To learn more about first aid, ask a hospital or an organisation like a Red Cross or a Red Crescent Society for information. Training may be offered in your area.
1.Which of the following is NOT the cause of accidental poisonings?
A.A harmful medicine. B.A cleaning liquid.
C.Dangerous pesticide. D.Poisonous insects.
2.What does the underlined word “expelled” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Coming out. B.Taking up. C.Going away. D.Getting down.
3.Where can you learn more about first aid?
A.A hospital or Red Cross. B.A hospital or magazine.
C.A Red Cross or patient. D.A Red Crescent Society or book.
B
I will not go on about the causes of sunburn because you probably already know. If you get sunburnt, you may be feeling a bit embarrassed about it. Once you have sunburn, the damage is done. So try the following ways to ease the discomfort.
Cool it down by taking a bath or shower. Keep the water and room temperature warm, especially for children as they may easily feel cold. Some people like to add 1/2 cup of baking soda to the bath water. This may help reduce your pain. You could also place a wet and cool cloth on the burnt area for about 15 minutes. Do that several times a day.
Apply moisturiser(润肤霜). You can choose some cream that makes your skin not that dry. Apply aloe, either the plant form or gel. Aloe contains active things that help reduce pain. Over the next few days, the skin may peel(脱皮). This is the body’s way of eliminating the dead skin, so keep using such cream to help make your skin comfortable.
Leave any blisters complete. This helps speed healing and avoid infection as burst blisters can easily get infected. You can cover blisters to protect them if needed and definitely do not wear clothing that will cause friction(摩擦) as this can “pop” the blisters. Damaging the blisters can, and probably will cause more pain with rubbing on soft skin and also cause infection.
Give pain relief if needed. The medicine aspirin is not recommended for children.
At this point, the person may not be comfortable, so do not make it worse by applying something that can prevent healing and increase or lock in the heat under the skin, therefore causing more burn damage.
See a doctor if:
▲it covers a large part of the body or is severe in nature.
▲there is a high fever, chills, a rash, nausea, and severe pain.
▲feeling faint or dizzy, rapid pulse or quick breathing.
▲extreme thirst, little or no urine output or sunken eyes.
4.Why do some people use baking soda after getting sunburnt?
A.To help prevent disease. B.To feel better in this way.
C.To avoid getting cold. D.To reduce the burnt area.
5.What does the underlined word “eliminating” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Protecting. B.Covering. C.Improving. D.Removing.
6.What does the author consider important after getting sunburnt?
A.Avoiding breaking blisters. B.Going to see a doctor immediately.
C.Taking medicine to avoid infection. D.Preventing the skin from developing blisters.
7. What is the text mainly about?
A. Things to help treat sunburn. B. The common causes of sunburn.
C. Ways to deal with sunburn. D. Methods to deal with blisters properly.

public libraries are an excellent resource for research,literacy(读写能力)education,and reading-centered events.Most towns have one or share library services with other towns through a mobile library,and the use of a public library is free to people who are willing to apply for a library card.
There are several primary sources of library funding(资金),starting with national funds which are distributed to states or provinces.These regions send the funds on to public libraries.Local governments also play an important role in providing funding for libraries,and most librarians apply for grants(拨款).Finally,private donations help to maintain libraries—most libraries have an association of Friends of the Library which organizes fund-raising sales and pays annual dues to help maintain the library.
Grants and private donations can also be used to provide a large amount of funding for public libraries,and some large libraries maintain a separate staff to increase the amount of funding that they can obtain through these sources.Grants include technology grants which allow libraries to install and upgrade computer systems,grants which focus on a particular topic such as science,fiction,children’s books,or local history,and education grants which support locally-based community efforts such as after-school reading programs.Many private donors are pleased to support their local public libraries by donating funds or including some library in their wills,and libraries reward their donors with treats like after-hours visits or privileged access to special collections.
By combining multiple resources,creative librarians can keep their libraries useful,informative,and fun for browsers.When it comes to supporting public libraries,every little bit counts: if you cannot afford to donate to a local library,think about volunteering time to help shelve,lead after-school programs,or organize fund raisers.Being active with your public library is a very important way to contribute to your local community.
8.How many main sources of library funding are mentioned?
A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five.
9.How is the funding made use of according to the text?
A.By exploring more about history.
B.By developing a scientific computer system.
C.By holding after-school activities for students.
D.By enriching special collections for the donors.
10.What does the underlined word “browsers” refer to in the last paragraph?
A.Viewers in the library.
B.Programs used to view documents.
C.People running the library.
D.Donors visiting the library regularly.
11.What is the purpose of the text?
A.To stress the value of public libraries.
B.To appeal for donation to local libraries.
C.To introduce sources of public library funding.
D.To show the procedure of funding libraries.

One way to prevent anxiety from getting out of control is to recognize its benefits. It is a mistake to think that we’d make better decisions if only we keep our feelings under control. Instead, a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical(合逻辑的) thinking leads to sound decision-making. It’s true that there is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making. There is also evidence that anxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.
Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationship (for example, they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognising people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger is present.
In the real world though, it’s worth realising that feeling anxious once in a while is extremely common. It communicates to others that you care, and what’s more, it’s probably a sign that you are intelligent. At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests. This seems reasonable: if you’re a thinker, you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagine possible plots, including bad ones.
The important thing, if you are a worrywart (杞人忧天者), is not to let your fear destroy your dreams. And don’t bury your head in the sand. Instead, act on your fears — do the research as well as preparation, so rather than walking blindly into that which you fear, you meet the challenge in full readiness.
When anxiety beats you, or casts a shadow over your life, this is a serious problem. No one is denying that. But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or interview, you needn’t see it as your enemy. Anxiety is an important feeling, developed through evolution. As for people who are fairly anxious by nature, there is reason for cheer, too. Your nerves (神经紧张) are a sign of your watchfulness. Listen to them and act on them. Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage.
12.What can we infer from the first paragraph about anxiety?
A.It can enable us to be more focused.
B.It can stop us from thinking logically.
C.It can make us more willing to take risks.
D.It can be the only reason for all bad decisions.
13.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Anxious people are less sensitive to danger.
B.Anxious people have difficulty discovering liars.
C.Feeling anxious is more likely to put people at risk.
D.Feeling anxious occasionally is a sign of intelligence.
14.How should we deal with anxiety in the author’s opinion?
A.Regard it as our enemy. B.Take action to control it.
C.Avoid being defeated by it. D.Treat it as a minor feeling.
15.What is the theme of the passage?
A.Effective ways to prevent anxiety. B.Unexpected benefits of anxiety.
C.Tips on how to keep a good mood. D.Common misunderstandings about anxiety.

第二节 续写 （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。续写的词数应为 150 左右。
I prided myself on being a good neighbor. My husband, Charles, and I knew everyone who lived along our rural road.Walking that road, I thought about how we all relied on each other. We picked up mail for people on vacation, lent out tools，and watched each other's children. Each house I passed held a friendly association.
Except Kelly's.
It hadn't always been this way. At one time, Kelly and I had a good relationship. Our children were close in age and often played together. Our husbands were playmates. I never went by her house without waving or stopping to chat if I saw her outside.
Not anymore. If Kelly was out in her yard when I walked or drove by, I acted as if I hadn't seen her and there had been a big wall between us. At first it felt satisfying to let Kelly know what I thought of her. Today the sight of her house just made me sad.
How did things go wrong? It had all started with a cat. A stray(无主的宠物) who turned up in my driveway. That wasn't unusual. I already had two stray cats I had adopted as well as a dog. But this cat was violent. He drove my own cats away from their food bowls and hissed at me when I tried to drive him off.
Imagine my surprise a few days later when Kelly announced that she was taking in the cat. “I think he's sweet，” she said.
I didn't even know that Kelly liked cats. She'd never had one before as far as I knew. Living with Kelly didn't make the cat any friendlier. He constantly showed up on our porch, stealing our cats' food and picking fights. “That cat's out of control，” I said to Kelly angrily over the phone one day. “I've had enough of it.”
“He's always perfectly sweet with us！” Kelly said, getting defensive. “I have no idea that you dislike him so much.”
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
That was the first brick in the wall between us.______________________

One day, when I was walking on that road again, I saw Kelly smiling at me.
