She believes that every tour is a beautiful journey and a new chance to learn and be moved. Chen's love for learning has made her an excellent guide.

Chinese high schools differ from American high schools in many ways.
The class structure (结构) is different. Students have each class in a different room with a different set of classmates in America, while Chinese students remain in the same classroom all day.
In addition to the structural difference, Chinese high schools also differ from American high schools in the college application process (大学申请过程) that students undergo.
In the United States, colleges use an application system that considers a student's high school grades, standardized test scores, after-school activities. teacher recommendations, and often a personal interview. Usually, the last few months of senior year has little work.
The Chinese college admission process is very different. College acceptance is depended on standardized examinations held once a year at the end of each school year. Although students take tests at the end of their first and second years of high school the test that really matters is the exam taken at the end of their final year of high school.
The main way in which Chinese and American high schools differ is in the way information is taught.
In America, personal expression is valued heavily. Many classes are based on discussion of the material, and teachers expect students to join in this dialogue, so the classroom can become noisy. Classroom participation (参与), meaning how a student contributes to the class discussion, is an important part of a student's grade, so a student who works hard but never speaks up could receive a lower grade as a result.
Chinese classrooms do not place this same importance on classroom participation. Class is based on the teacher talking and the students listening quietly. Respect (尊敬) for teachers is far more important. When a student is asked to speak, he or she is expected to stand. This classroom is more formal and respectful. But it also means less communication between the teacher and students.
28. What is the class structure for students in America
A. They have one teacher. B. They study in the same classroom.
C. They have the same classmates. D. They have different classmates and classrooms.
29. What are paragraphs 4、5 mainly about
A. Different class structures.
B. The way information is taught.
C. How to get high marks in the final year of high school.
D. The differences of the college application process between America and China.
30. How can a student most probably get a high mark in an American class
A. By being noisy B. By being active in class discussion.
C. By having respect for teachers. D. By working hard and not speaking.
31. How does the author develop the text
A. By listing numbers. B. By following time order.
C. By presenting research findings. D. By comparing the differences.
D
Conflict (冲突) between teenagers and parents happens for a lot of reasons. Sometimes conflict happens between teenagers and parents just because conflict happens between human beings anyway. Humans have different needs, different feelings, different opinions about what they want, and the relationship with people can be really difficult. However, teenagers can cause further conflict because of the hormonal (生理的) changes that are happening and the stage of life that they're in.
Teenagers and parents have different understanding about rules and at times they find it difficult to look into the future. So parents and teenagers will often experience conflict about many things, do chores, homework, whether teenagers speak respectfully or not and about what they're allowed to do.
Before we think about rule boundaries (界线) for teenagers, we need to make sure that we have a really good relationship base. There's no point saying “From now on, you have to listen to me”: if you don't have a positive relationship with your teenager. We need to go back and make sure there is some degree of shared respect, and some degree of positive communication and enjoyment being together. you do that first, it means that rule boundaries are a lot easier to set up.
Often we're dealing with conflict on the fly. This is not the right time to be dealing with it. Were ally want parents and teenagers to sit down and think about the kinds of things that may happen in the house before the problems come. The more detailed your rule boundaries are for teenagers, the more likely it is that they are going to follow them. So this means we don't have rule boundaries like “Have the bathroom cleaned”. It needs to be “The floors mopped, nothing on the countertop and the mirrors cleaned by ten o'clock every Saturday”: Rule boundaries need to be written down, and set out ahead of time so the teenager knows exactly what's expected.
32. What's important to set up a rule boundary easily for teenagers
A. Being strict from the start. B. Developing a good relationship with them first.
C. Saying"No" to their requirements. D. Avoiding close talks with them.
33. Which of the following rules are teenagers most likely to follow
A. Doing some housework. B. Having a good reading habit.
C. Cleaning the bathroom. D. Finishing your homework by five.
34. What do the underlined words "on the fly" in the last paragraph probably mean
A. In a hurry. B. On the plane. C. By oneself. D. Another day.
35. What's the best title for the text
A. Growing Pains B. Teenage Problems
C. Parent-Child Conflict and Solutions D. Knowing the Conflict

One morning in spring four students were walking to school.
There had been a rain, and the ground was very soft. Water was dropping from the trees, and the grass was wet.
The four students walked along, one behind another, because the pathway was narrow (狭窄的) and the mud (泥) on either side of it was deep. They walked, talked and laughed.
As they were passing through some small trees, they heard a great fluttering (拍翅膀) over their heads and a weak chirping (鸣叫) in the grass by the roadside.
“Tweet! Tweet! Tweet!” came from the leafy branches above them.“Cheep! Cheep! Cheep!” came from the wet grass.
“What is the matter here ” asked the first student, whose name was Speed. “Oh, there are two young birds. Maybe the storm has blown two of the little ones out of the nest. They are too young to fly, ” said the second student, whose name was Hardin.
“What a pity! They'll die down there in the grass,” said the third student Martin.
“Oh, well! We still need to hurry to school. We're going to be late,” said Speed. “Why should we bother ” After Speed's words, the first three students walked on, talking and laughing as before.

【原文】W: Good afternoon and welcome to Seattle Houseboat Tours. My name’s Elizabeth Jones and I’m your guide today. This is my houseboat Moonlight. Before we go on board, I’d like to give you a little background information. Seattle has one of the largest numbers of houseboats in the US — about 500 of them in fact. That’s quite a high number and shows how popular houseboat living is here. We’re at the Southern end of Lake Union right now. As you have probably seen already, this is a lively area with restaurants and shops and cafes. During our one-hour tour, you’ll see a number of houseboats. People can pay millions of dollars for the biggest of these. Some of them are quite amazing and have two or three floors. My own is one of the smallest boats, but I still have plenty of room, as you’ll see when I show you around. My living area includes one bedroom with a bathroom, a kitchen and a living room. I also have electricity,running water and network, so I really do have everything I need. You may be interested to know that I’m writing a book on the history of houseboats in the city, and this should be on sale from early July. Well, thank you for listening so far. Now let’s move into the boat and start the tour.

Chinese high schools differ from American high schools in many ways.
The class structure (结构) is different. Students have each class in a different room with a different set of classmates in America, while Chinese students remain in the same classroom all day.
In addition to the structural difference, Chinese high schools also differ from American high schools in the college application process (大学申请过程) that students undergo.
In the United States, colleges use an application system that considers a student's high school grades, standardized test scores, after-school activities. teacher recommendations, and often a personal interview. Usually, the last few months of senior year has little work.
The Chinese college admission process is very different. College acceptance is depended on standardized examinations held once a year at the end of each school year. Although students take tests at the end of their first and second years of high school, the test that really matters is the exam taken at the end of their final year of high school.
The main way in which Chinese and American high schools differ is in the way information is taught
In America personal expression is valued heavily. Many classes are based on discussion of the material, and teachers expect students to join in this dialogue, so the classroom can become noisy. Classroom participation (参与), meaning how a student contributes to the class discussion, is an important part of a student's grade, so a student who works hard but never speaks up could receive a lower grade as a result.
Chinese classrooms do not place this same importance on classroom participation. Class is based on the teacher talking and the students listening quietly. Respect (尊敬) for teachers is far more important. When a student is asked to speak, he or she is expected to stand. This classroom is more formal and respectful. But it also means less communication between the teacher and students.
28. What is the class structure for students in America
A. They have one teacher. B. They study in the same classroom.
C. They have the same classmates. D. They have different classmates and classrooms.
29. What are paragraphs 4、5 mainly about
A. Different class structures.
B. The way information is taught.
C. How to get high marks in the final year of high school.
D. The differences of the college application process between America and China.
30. How can a student most probably get a high mark in an American class
A. By being noisy B. By being active in class discussion.
C. By having respect for teachers. D. By working hard and not speaking.
31. How does the author develop the text
A. By listing numbers. B. By following time order.
C. By presenting research findings. D. By comparing the differences.
【答案】28. D 29. D 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了中国的高中与美国的高中在很多方面的不同。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The class structure(结构)is different. Students have each class in a different room with a different set of classmates in America, while Chinese students remain in the same classroom all day.(班级结构是不同的。在美国，学生们在不同的教室和不同的同学一起上课，而中国学生整天都呆在同一个教室里。)”可知，美国课堂结构是学生在不同的教室与不同的同学学习。故选D。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“In addition to the structural difference, Chinese high schools also differ from American high schools in the college application process (大学申请过程) that students undergo.(除了结构上的差异，中国高中在学生申请大学的过程中也与美国高中不同。)”和第四段、第五段可知，第四段和第五段主要讲中美两国大学申请过程的不同。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第七段“In America, personal expression is valued heavily. Many classes are based on discussion of the material, and teachers expect students to join in this dialogue, so the classroom can become noisy. Classroom participation (参与), meaning how a student contributes to the class discussion, is an important part of a student's grade, so a student who works hard but never speaks up could receive a lower grade as a result.(在美国，个人表达是非常重要的。许多课程都是基于对材料的讨论，老师希望学生加入到这种对话中来，所以教室会变得嘈杂。课堂参与度，也就是学生对课堂讨论的参与程度，是学生成绩的重要组成部分，因此，一个努力学习但从不发言的学生可能会因此得到较低的分数。)”可推断，在美国课堂积极参与课堂讨论的同学最有可能得高分。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Chinese high schools differ irom American high schools in many ways.(中国的高中与美国的高中在很多方面不同。)”可知，作者是通过对比中美两国高中差异来展开全文的。故选D。

Conflict (冲突) between teenagers and parents happens for a lot of reasons. Sometimes conflict happens between teenagers and parents just because conflict happens between human beings anyway. Humans have different needs, different feelings, different opinions about what they want, and the relationship with people can be really difficult. However, teenagers can cause further conflict because of the hormonal (生理的) changes that are happening and the stage of life that they're in.
Teenagers and parents have different understanding about rules and at times they find it difficult to look into the future. So parents and teenagers will often experience conflict about many things, do chores, homework, whether teenagers speak respectfully or not and about what they're allowed to do.
Before we think about rule boundaries (界线) for teenagers, we need to make sure that we have a really good relationship base. There's no point saying “From now on, you have to listen to me”: if you don't have a positive relationship with your teenager. We need to go back and make sure there is some degree of shared respect, and some degree of positive communication and enjoyment being together. you do that first, it means that rule boundaries are a lot easier to set up.
Often we're dealing with conflict on the fly. This is not the right time to be dealing with it. Were ally want parents and teenagers to sit down and think about the kinds of things that may happen in the house before the problems come. The more detailed your rule boundaries are for teenagers, the more likely it is that they are going to follow them. So this means we don't have rule boundaries like “Have the bathroom cleaned”. It needs to be “The floors mopped, nothing on the countertop and the mirrors cleaned by ten o'clock every Saturday”: Rule boundaries need to be written down, and set out ahead of time so the teenager knows exactly what's expected.
32. What's important to set up a rule boundary easily for teenagers
A. Being strict from the start. B. Developing a good relationship with them first.
C. Saying"No" to their requirements. D. Avoiding close talks with them.
33. Which of the following rules are teenagers most likely to follow
A. Doing some housework. B. Having a good reading habit.
C. Cleaning the bathroom. D. Finishing your homework by five.
34. What do the underlined words "on the fly" in the last paragraph probably mean
A. In a hurry. B. On the plane. C. By oneself. D. Another day.
35. What's the best title for the text
A. Growing Pains B. Teenage Problems
C. Parent-Child Conflict and Solutions D. Knowing the Conflict
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. A 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述青少年和父母之间发生的冲突及解决方案。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Before we think about rule boundaries (界线) for teenagers, we need to make sure that we have a really good relationship base. There's no point saying “From now on, you have to listen to me” (在我们考虑青少年的规则界限之前，我们需要确保我们有一个非常好的关系基础。说“从现在开始，你必须听我的”是没有意义的)”可知，家长与孩子后期建立规则界限的关键是跟孩子有良好的关系基石。故选B。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The more detailed your rule boundaries are for teenagers, the more likely it is that they are going to follow them. (你为青少年制定的规则越详细，他们就越有可能遵守这些规则。)”可知 D选项“5点前完成作业。”规则最详细，故选D。
【34题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词后“This is not the right time to be dealing with it. Were ally want parents and teenagers to sit down and think about the kinds of things that may happen in the house before the problems come. (现在不是处理这件事的时候。我们希望父母和青少年在问题出现之前坐下来想想家里可能发生的事情。)”可推断上文意思是我们经常在匆忙中处理冲突，所以画线词意思是“匆忙地”，和In a hurry的意思最为接近。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其第一段“Conflict (冲突) between teenagers and parents happens for a lot of reasons. Sometimes conflict happens between teenagers and parents just because conflict happens between human beings anyway. Humans have different needs, different feelings, different opinions about what they want, and the relationship with people can be really difficult. However, teenagers can cause further conflict because of the hormonal (生理的) changes that are happening and the stage of life that they're in. (青少年和父母之间发生冲突的原因有很多。有时候青少年和父母之间会发生冲突，因为人类之间总是会发生冲突。人类有不同的需求，不同的感受，对自己想要的东西有不同的看法，与人的关系真的很困难。然而，由于正在发生的荷尔蒙变化和他们所处的人生阶段，青少年可能会引发进一步的冲突。)”可知文章主要讲述青少年和父母之间发生的冲突及解决方案。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍的是友谊的重要性和如何应对失去的友谊。
【56题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：每个人都需要一份亲密的友谊，它能在生活中的顺境和逆境中给予我们支持。空格处引导的是定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词friendship是物，因此空格处用关系代词which/that，故填which/that。
【57题详解】
考查介词。句意：朋友让我们远离孤独，给我们安全感，当事情不像我们想的那样结束时，他们会帮助我们。provide sb. with sth.是固定短语，意为“给某人提供某物”，因此空格处用介词with，故填with。
【58题详解】
考查动名词。句意：朋友让我们远离孤独，给我们安全感，当事情不像我们想的那样结束时，他们会帮助我们。end up doing是固定短语，意为“最终做某事”，因此空格处用动名词going。故填going。
【59题详解】
考查副词。句意：不幸的是，有时友谊既是快乐的源泉，也是痛苦的源泉。空格处用副词作状语，修饰整句话，unlucky的副词是unluckily，意为“不幸的是”，位于句首，首字母大写，故填Unluckily。
【60题详解】
考查时态，语态和主谓一致。句意：就像任何关系一样，如果友谊的基础信任被任何一个朋友破坏了，我们会感到悲伤。if引导的是条件状语从句，描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，由by可知，句子用被动语态，因此空格处是一般现在时的被动语态，主语trust是不可数名词，因此空格处是is broken。故填is broken。
【61题详解】
考查冠词。句意：例如，如果你曾经告诉过一个亲密的朋友你的秘密，但他让别人知道了这个秘密，你可能会首先对友谊失去信任。first feeling意为“第一感觉”，此处表示泛指，前面要加不定冠词，first是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a，故填a。
【62题详解】
考查名词。句意：当经历失去友谊的悲伤或孤独时，你可以走出去，活跃起来，这有助于你把注意力从失去的友谊中移开，或者你可以多关注自己。空格处用名词作宾语，sad的名词是sadness，意为“悲伤”，是不可数名词，故填sadness。
【63题详解】
考查反身代词。句意：当经历失去友谊的悲伤或孤独时，你可以走出去，活跃起来，这有助于你把注意力从失去的友谊中移开，或者你可以多关注自己。根据语境可知，此处表示“你可以多关注自己”，空格处意为“你自己”，用反身代词yourself，故填yourself。
【64题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：永远记住，牢固的友谊需要诚实和信任。空格处是句子是祈使句，句子描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，主语friendship是单数，因此空格处用第三人称单数，故填requires。
【65题详解】
考查不定式。句意：即使你被你的朋友伤害了，忘记它，重新开始你的新生活也是明智的。it is wise of sb. to do是固定句型，意为“某人做某事是明智的”，其中it是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式，因此空格处是不定式to forget。故填to forget。

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整短文。
One morning in spring four students were walking to school.
There had been a rain, and the ground was very soft. Water was dropping from the trees, and the grass was wet.
The four students walked along, one behind another, because the pathway was narrow (狭窄的) and the mud (泥) on either side of it was deep. They walked, talked and laughed.
As they were passing through some small trees, they heard a great fluttering (拍翅膀) over their heads and a weak chirping (鸣叫) in the grass by the roadside.
“Tweet! Tweet! Tweet!” came from the leafy branches above them.“Cheep! Cheep! Cheep!” came from the wet grass.
“What is the matter here ” asked the first student, whose name was Speed. “Oh, there are two young birds. Maybe the storm has blown two of the little ones out of the nest. They are too young to fly, ” said the second student, whose name was Hardin.
“What a pity! They'll die down there in the grass,” said the third student Martin.
“Oh, well! We still need to hurry to school. We're going to be late,” said Speed. “Why should we bother ” After Speed's words, the first three students walked on, talking and laughing as before.

All were surprised to find that David was not with them when the roll call (点名) was made.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】But the fourth student, whose name was David, stopped. He bent down and very gently took the little ones up in his warm hands. “Never mind, my little fellows, ” said David. “I will put you in your own cozy little bed.” Then he looked up to find the nest from which they had fallen. It was high, much higher than he could reach. But David could climb. He had climbed many a tree when he was a boy. He put the birds softly, one by one, into their warm little home. At this time, the first three students had already reached school.
All were surprised to find that David was not with them when the roll call (点名) was made. Just when the teacher was to be angry, Hardin explained, “We met two fallen birds on our way to school. Very likely David has stopped to take care of them.” In a few minutes, David appeared at the door of the classroom out of breath. His shoes were covered with mud, and he had torn his coat on the thorny tree. Just as he was about to accept the teacher's criticism, to his surprise, all the students sang the song Hero with the “Tweet! Tweet! ” and “Cheep! Cheep!” sound from the birds outside the classroom.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了正步行去学校的四个学生，走在半路上却发现有两只小鸟被暴风雨吹出了巢，由于它们太小了，所以飞不起来，但是由于上课要迟到了，所以他们不想找麻烦，于是前三个学生就有说有笑的朝学校走去了。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“但是第四个名叫大卫的学生停了下来。”可知，第一段可描第四个学生把两个小鸟救起的过程。
②由第二段首句内容“大家都惊奇地发现，点名时大卫没有和他们在一起。”可知，第二段可描写大卫迟到了没有受到批评，却受到赞扬的过程。
2.续写线索：大卫拾起小鸟——努力把小鸟送回巢——老师点名——发现大卫迟到——哈丁解释——大卫到达学校——同学齐唱英雄
