Although the season is still young, the Knicks have reversed course in just one week from the NBAs most disappointing team to a playoff (季后賽) contestant. Lin, not teams high-paid stars, has saved the Knicks season and likely coach DAntonis job.After nearly 15 years of disappointing, sometimes unsuccessful seasons, Madison Square Garden is alive again, and New York City cant stop talking about the Knicks. To put things into perspective（角度）, consider this: Just several years back, Knicks fans protested nightly outside of the Garden calling for the teams ownership to fire their resented coach Isiah Thomas.Now, Madison Square Garden Co. shares are at a record high, the Knicks average household television rating is up 70 percent since Lin joined the starting lineup (首發(fā)陣容), and jersey sales are increasing very quickly. I watched the Knicks-Lakers game at a bar in Harlem, and have not felt that kind of energy from fans since the great playoff between the Knicks and Miami Heat in the late 1990s.Beyond the Knicks, Lin may be saving the NBA as well. Just a few months back, the NBA took a massive credibility（威信）hit during a multi-month lockout（停工）, where the owners did not allow the players to go back to play until they accept the new salary levels. As a consequence, the season did not even begin until Christmas Day. Over the past few years, LeBron James (勒布朗詹姆斯) relatively long and unpleasant free-agent (自由職業(yè)球員) events, bined with poor play around the league, have angered fans and damaged the leagues brand.Lin is leading a one-week NBA basketball revival. His legendary story has inspired Asian-Americans, increased NBA sales in China, and turned the basketball world upside down. 25The passage is mainly about_ .A. why the New Yorkers thought well of Jeremy Lin. B. why Jeremy Lin became a member of the Knicks. C. how the Knicks defeated its opponents in a great play off. D. how Jeremy Lin saved the Knicks, probably including the NBA.26According to the passage, Jeremy Lins excellent performance saved the following except_. A. The NBA B. Coach Isiah Thomas C. The Knicks D. Madison Square Garden Co.s shares 27The underlined word “young” in Paragraph 2 probably means _.A. not old yet. B. not pletely grown. C. in the development D. in the early stage 28The NBA suffered the credibility crisis months ago because_.A. The NBA delayed the season because of players wage disagreements.B. the NBA was disappointed at James free-agent event.C. The NBA canceled the basketball match for the ing Christmas. D. James had a bad performance in the basketball court.CWhats the biggest online shopping day in the world? Not Valentines Day. Not Cyber Monday or Black Friday. The winner is Chinas Singles Day, celebrated on November11, or 11.11.Singles Day began as a day for unmarried or uncoupled people to celebrate their lives. Single students, looking for an excuse to buy themselves presents, started it on November11,1993, reported The Guardian. It is symbolized by the four number ones in the date of November 11 and is also called Double Eleven, in reference to the day it was started, said the BBC. It became a major shopping day in xx.

By parison, online sales in the U.S. last year on Black Friday were just $1.5 billion, reported TechCrunch.Today, Singles Day is very successful. Analysts say that this year, sales on Chinas Singles Day will increase to a new high. In the U.S., Jennifer Wang, a co-founder of a pany targeting Chinese-Americans, said, “We expect to have 3 million people ing to click Dealmoon for the Singles Day launch.” Some observers think Singles Day could catch on globally.29How did the author introduce the topic of the passage?A.

Because singles celebrated their happy lives on November11.B. Because students at Nanjing university took part in activities together.C.

Because single students chose that day to buy themselves gifts.32Which of the following can best replace the word “soared” in Paragraph3?A. Increased sharply. B. Decreased quickly. C. Returned gradually. D. Appeared suddenly.DYou get anxious if theres no wi-fi in the hotel or mobile phone signal up the mountain. You feel upset if your phone is getting low on power, and you secretly worry things will go wrong at work if youre not there. All these can be called “always on” stress caused by smartphone addiction.For some people, smartphones have freed them from the nine-to-five work. Flexible working has given them more autonomy (自主權(quán)) in their working lives and enabled them to spend more time with their friends and families. For many others, though, smartphones have bee tyrants (暴君) in their pockets, never allowing them to turn them off, relax and recharge their batteries.Pittsburgh-based developer Kevin Holesh was worried about how much he was ignoring his family and friends in favour of his iPhone. So he developed an app Moment to monitor his usage. The app enables users to see how much time theyre spending on the device and set up warnings if the usage limits are breached (突破). “Moments goal is to promote balance in your life,” his website explains. “Some time on your phone, some time off it enjoying your loving family and friends around you.”Dr Christine Grant, a psychologist at Coventry University, said, “The effects of this always on, culture are that your mind is never resting, and youre not giving your body time to recover, so youre always stressed. And the more tired and stressed we get, the more mistakes we make. Physical and mental health can suffer.”And as the number of connected smartphones is increasing, so is the amount of data. This is leading to a sort of decision paralysis (癱瘓) and is creating more stress in the workplace because people have to receive a broader range of data and munications which are often difficult to manage. “It actually makes it more difficult to make decisions and many do less because theyre controlled by it all and feel they can never escape the office,” said Dr Christine Grant.33Whats the first paragraph mainly about?A. The popularity of smartphones. B. The signs of “always on” stress.C. The progress of modern technology.D. The cause of smartphone addiction.34Kevin Holesh developed Moment to .A. research how people use their mobile phonesB. make people better use mobile phonesC. increase the fun of using mobile phonesD. help people control their use of mobile phones35Whats Dr Christine Grants attitude towards “always on” culture?A. Confused. B. Positive.C. Doubtful. D. Critical.第二節(jié) 七選五 （共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分） If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, they bee weak; when you start using again, they slowly bee strong again. Everybody knows this, and nobody would think of questioning the fact. 36 When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is poor , he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to bee strong. 37 One of them exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or motor car all day.If a friend plains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. 38 , many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just his own fault. Not all of us can bee extremely strong or extremely clever; but all of us can, if we have ordinary bodies and brains, improve our strength and our memory by the same meanspractice.Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can? 39 Of course, because those who cannot read or write have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember dates, time and prices, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. 40 ，learn from the poor：practice remembering.A. What do you think of it ?B. Yet many people do not seem to know that the memory works in the same way.C. But if he tells us that he has a poor memoryD. So if you want a good memoryE.

The position is exactly the same as that of two people.第三部分 語言知識運用（共兩節(jié)，滿分45分）第一節(jié) 完形填空（共20小題；每小題15分，滿分30分）Im proud of myself for this kindness I did last night I did it _41_ and did the right thing.
