Part III

B
In the mid-1950s, I was a somewhat bored early-adolescent male student who believed that doing any more than
necessary was wasted effort. One day, this approach threw me into embarrassment
In Mrs. Totten’s eighth-grade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson, Indiana, we were learning to add
and subtract decimals (小数).
Our teacher typically assigned daily homework, which would be recited in class the following day. On most days,
our grades were based on our oral answer to homework questions.
Mrs. Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the
order the questions had apeared on our homework sheets. She would start either at the front or the back of
the classroom and work toward the other end.

Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to
answer. This particular time, I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.
英语试题第7页（共12页)
What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate. As Mrs. Totten made
her way from the beginning of the class，I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get. I tried
to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and couldn’t function.
When Mrs. Totten reached my desk，she asked what answer I’d got for problem No. 14. “I…I didn’t get anything,”
I answered，and my face felt warm.
“Correct,” she said.
It turned out that the correct answer was zero.
What did I learn that day? First, always do all your homework. Second, in real life it isn’t always what you say but
how you say it that matters. Third，I would never make it as a mathematician.
If I could choose one school day that taught me the most, it would be that one.
61. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 indicate?
A. It is wise to value one’s time.
B. It is important to make an effort
C. It is right to stick to one’s belief.
D. It is enough to do the necessary.
62. Usually, Mrs. Totten asked her students to _______.
A. recite their homework together
B. grade their homework themselves
C. answer their homework questions orally
D. check the answers to their homework questions
63. The author could work out which questions to answer since the teacher always _______.
A. asked questions in a regular way
B. walked up and down when asking questions
C. chose two or three questions for the students
D. requested her students to finish their usual questions
64. The author failed to get the questions he had expected because _______.
A. the class didn’t begin as usual
B. several students didn’t come to school

C. he didn’t try hard to make his estimate
D. Mrs. Totten didn’t start from the back of the class
65，Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. An Unforgettable Teacher
B. A Future Mathematician
C. An Effective Approach
D. A Valuable Lesson
62. Usually, Mrs. A. recite their

C
The behaviour of a building’s users may be at least as important as its design when it comes to energy use,
according to new research from the UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC). The UK promises to reduce its carbon
emissions (排放）by 80 percent by 2050, part of which will be achieved by all new homes being zero-carbon by
2016. But this report shows that sustainable building design on its own — though extremely important- is not
enough to achieve such reductions: the behaviour of the people using the building has to change too.
The study suggests that the ways that people use and live in their homes have been largely ignored by
existing efforts to improve energy efficiency (效率)，which instead focus on architectural and technological
developments.
‘Technology is going to assist but it is not going to do everything,’explains Katy Janda, a UKERC senior
researcher，‘consumption patterns of building users can defeat the most careful design. ’In other words，old
habits die hard, even in the best-designed eco-home.
Another part of the problem is information. Households and bill-payers don’t have the knowledge they need to
change their energy-use habits. Without specific information，it’s hard to estimate the costs and benefits of
making different choices. Feedback (反馈） facilities, like smart meters and energy monitors，could help bridge
this information gap by helping people see how changing their behaviour directly affects their energy use; some
studies have shown that households can achieve up to 15 percent energy savings using smart meters.
Social science research has added a further dimension (方面），suggesting that individuals’behaviour in the
home can be personal and cannot be predicted 一 whether people throw open their windows rather than turn
down the thermostat (恒温器) , for example.
Janda argues that education is the key. She calls for a focused programme to teach people about buildings and
their own behaviour in them.

66. As to energy use, the new research from UKERC stresses the importance of________.
A. zero-carbon homes B. the behaviour of building users
C. sustainable building design D. the reduction of carbon emissions
67. The underlined word “which” in Paragraph 2 refers to”________.”
A. the ways B. their homes
C. developments D. existing efforts
68. What are Katy Janda’s words mainly about?
A. The importance of changing building users, habits.
B. The necessity of making a careful building design.
C. The variety of consumption patterns of building users.
D. The role of technology in improving energy efficiency.
69. The information gap in energy use _______.
A. can be bridged by feedback facilities
B. affects the study on energy monitors
C. brings about problems for smart meters
D. will be caused by building users’ old habits
70. What does the dimension added by social science research suggest?
A. The social science research is to be furthered.
B. The education programme is under discussion.
C. The behaviour of building users is unpredictable.
D. The behaviour preference of building users is similar.

Part IV Writing (45 marks)
Section A (10 marks)
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Many of us invest valuable time，energy and money planning our vacations. We do this because we know for sure
that going on vacations must be good for us. Research proves this feeling without a doubt. Vacations help us
perform better at work, improve our sleep quality and cushion us against depression.
Yet, despite these benefits, many of us return home with a feeling that our last vacation was OK - but not great.
In order to change this, some mistakes should be avoided. A classic one for vacation planners is attempting to

maximize value for money by planning trips that have too many components (组成部分)• Perhaps you’re
planning a trip to Europe, seven cities in 10 days，and you realize it will cost only a little more to add two more
destinations to the list Sounds fine in theory, but hopping from one place to the next hardly gives an opportunity
to experience what psychologists call mindfulness - time to take in our new surroundings, time to be present and
absorb our travel experiences. Another mistake is that we worry too much about strategic issues such as how to
find a good flight deal，how to get from A to B，or which destinations to add or subtract from our journey. These
issues may seem important, but our psychological state of mind is far more important.
Actually, vacation happiness is based on the following top rules. First, choose your travel companions wisely,
because nothing contributes more significantly to a trip than the right companions. Second，don’t spend your
vacation time in a place where everything is too expensive so as to maintain a positive mood. Third, shop wisely,
for meaningful experiences provide more long-term happiness than physical possessions.



Section B (10 marks)
Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the
information given in the passage.
Kids and Ponds

Years ago there was a group of kids who would hang around at some local ponds in the woods near their houses
in Warwick, Rhode Island. In summer they caught frogs and fish. When winter arrived they couldn’t wait to go
skating. Time passed, and the ponds became the only open space for the kids to enjoy themselves in that
neighborhood.
One day. a thirteen-year-old boy from this group of kids read in the local newspaper that a developer wanted to
fill in the ponds and build over a hundred small houses called condominiums. So the boy went door to door and
gathered more than two hundred signatures (签名）to stop the development A group of citizens met and decided
to support him.
At the meeting of the town planning board (委员会)，the boy was quite nervous at first and spoke very softly. But
when he saw the faces of his friends and neighbors in the crowd and thought about what was happening to their
favorite ponds，his voice grew louder. He told the town officials that they should speak for the citizens. He also
insisted that they should leave enough space for children. A few days later，the developer stopped his plan.
Nine years later, when that teen was a senior in college, he was informed that the developer was back with his
proposal to build condominiums. Now twenty-two years old, he was studying wetlands ecology. He again
appeared before the town planning board. This time as an expert witness, he used environmental protection
laws to explain restrictions on development in and around wetlands and the knowledge of wetlands ecology to
help improve the development. Finally some condominiums were built, but less than half the number the
developer wanted. The ponds where those kids used to hang around were protected by a strip of natural land，
and are still there today.

81. What did the kids like to do at the local ponds in winter?
(No more than 6 words) (2 marks)


82. How did the boy win the citizens’ support?
(No more than 10 words) (2
marks)
