At the end I said, “ Son, remember: Be slow and steady (鎮(zhèn)定的), and that will win the race. Dont you think theres something to learn from the tortoise?”Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when Im entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”I was shocked, “But the tortoise didnt wish that the hare would fall asleep!”“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”“He didnt have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (堅(jiān)忍不拔), by pushing on steadily.”Sonny thought a while. “Thats a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadnt happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but hed never have won the race. Thats for sure.”I gave up. Todays children are not like what we used to be. Theyre just hopeless.44. The writer argued with his son because _. A. he liked tortoises while his son liked hares.

The hareCSAN FRANCISCOA phone app（應(yīng)用程序）in San Francisco gives information about open parking spotsCity officials in San Francisco introduced the app to try to reduce traffic jams in the city, but some say it raises safety concernsIn this city, drivers searching for parking spots lead to 30 percent of all downtown jams, city officials thinkNow San Francisco has found a solution a phone app for spot-seekers that shows information about areas with available spacesThe system, introduced last month, relies on wireless sensors（感應(yīng)器）fixed in streets and city garages that can tell within seconds if a spot has opened upBut the system could come with serious consequencesSome people say that drivers searching for parking could end up focusing on their phones, not the road“It could be really distracting（使分心的）,” said Daniel Simons, a professor of psychology at the University of IllinoisCity officials admitted the hidden problemThey are urging drivers to pull over before they use the citys iPhone app, or to do so before they leave home. Nathaniel Ford, executive director of the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, said safety could actually improve if drivers quickly found a spot instead of circling and getting frustratedSan Francisco has put sensors into 7,000 parking spots and 12,250 spots in city garagesIf spaces in an area open up, the sensors communicate wirelessly with computers that in turn make the information available to app users within a minute, said Mr. Ford, of the transportation agencyOn the app, a map shows which blocks have lots of places(blue)and which are full(red)More than 12,000 people have downloaded San Franciscos app, which is available now only for the iPhone.48. What is the phone app mentioned in the text mainly aimed at?A. Benefiting iPhone users.B. Preventing traffic accidents.C. Making the traffic flow smoothly.D.Making full use of the parking spots.49. According to the text, San Francisco city officials _.A. dont consider the app distracting.B. are aware of the apps disadvantages.C. advise drivers to park cars slowly.D. believe more parking spots are needed.50. The phone app mentioned in the text _.A. is a bit slow in reactingB. hasnt been put into serviceC. was introduced several years agoD. cant be downloaded to all phones51. Whats the main idea of the passage?A. A phone app has been introduced to relieve the pressure on traffic in the city.B. Safety concerns are voiced about a phone app aimed at helping drivers find parking spots.C. Looking for parking spots contributes greatly to downtown traffic jams.D. Drivers attention is distracted in one way or another when they are driving.DParents and kids today dress alike, listen to the same music, and are friends. Is this a good thing? Sometimes, when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and talk about interests they both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.“I would never have said to my mom, Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it?” says Ballmer. “There was just a complete gap in taste.”Music was not the only gulf. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits(軌道).Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. And parentchild activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood.But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “Theres still a lot of strictness and authority(權(quán)威) on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening,” says Kerrie, a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College. “In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.”Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these changing roles and attitudes. They see the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic(民主的) process that encourages everyone to have a say.“My parents were on the before side of that change, but todays parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the after side,” explains Mr. Ballmer. “Its not something easily achieved by parents these days, because life is more difficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”52. The underlined word “gulf” in Para.3 most probably means _.A. distanceB. interest C. similarityD. cooperation53. The change in todays parent-child relationship is _.A. more confusion among children.B. less respect for parents from children.C. new equality between parents and children.D. more strictness and authority on the part of parents.54. By saying “todays parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the after side.” the author means that todays parents _.A. can set a limit to the change.B. follow the trend of the change.C. fail to take the change seriously.D. have little difficulty adjusting(適應(yīng))to the change.55. The purpose of the passage is to _.A. describe the difficulties todays parents have met with.B. discuss the development of the parentchild relationship.C. suggest the ways to handle the parentchild relationship.D. compare todays parentchild relationship with that in the past.第二節(jié)(共5小題; 每小題1.5分, 滿分7.5分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。 A new report says plastics are responsible for $13 billion in damage to the oceans and the undersea environment. The findings were announced recently at a United Nations conference 56 .Plastic thrown away carelessly makes its way into rivers and other waterways. 57 . After a while, it collects in the sea. And plastic never goes away. Plastic is not biodegradabledestroyed by bacteria or natural processes. Instead, it just breaks up into smaller pieces over time. The oceans contain a lot of chemicals and other pollutants(污染物). 58 .That means harmful material may get into our food supply. 59 . Human beings cause pollution and they can take steps to stop it. They can use fewer single use product containers and throw plastics away correctly. Plastic recycling programs also workswhere old bottles and other plastics are collected, broken down and used to make new products. We could reuse bottles in our households many times if we wish to, rather than end it after the first use. We could, when we get rid of that plastic, recycle it and reuse it, which replaces the need for raw materials.The report also calls on companies to improve methods for using plastics. 60 . And it calls for information about the way plastic is thrown out or removed from use. By putting a new value on plastic, industry has a special reason to clean up the environment.But all of the companies must join to deal with the problem.A. Then, fish may eat the plastics.B. But people can make a big difference.C. Plastics should be gathered together and reused.D. It is convenient to use plastic bags in everyday life.E. It asks for them to better measure and control plastic use.F. The plastic eventually reaches coastal areas and ocean waters.G. The report tells about harm to sea life and what might be done to improve the situation.第II卷 非選擇題題（滿分50分）第四部分 語(yǔ)篇填空（共10小題；每小題1分，滿分10分）閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入適當(dāng)?shù)膬?nèi)容（1個(gè)單詞）或括號(hào)內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。A: You are lucky to be working in 61 a big city that everything here is wonderful.B: I dont think so. 62 (actual) I dont have interest in city life.A: Why?
