分析 本文主要讲述一个人在海滩散步,太阳正照耀着.他看见远处一个人在来回走动,他靠近一看,那个人正在将海星一个一个捡起扔进海里.他说:有数千英里的覆盖着海星的海滩,你这样做没有意义.那个人看着他,又捡起一个海星扔回到海里,说这样会有影响的.

解答 61.going 考查现在分词.根据语境,go正在发生,see sb.doing sth.意为"看见某人在做某事",用现在分词作宾语补足语.
62.and 考查固定搭配.between…and…意为"在…和…之间",是固定搭配.
63.of 考查介词.as a result of意为"作为…的结果; 由于",是固定搭配. 
64.was confused 考查动词时态和语态.根据句中by,要用被动语态,且动作发生在过去,要用一般过去时的被动语态.
65.them 考查代词.throw是动词,要用宾格代词.
66.thousands 考查固定搭配.thousands of意为"数千的…",是固定搭配.
67.covered 考查过去分词.beach与cover之间是动宾关系,用过去分词短语covered with starfish作后置定语.
68.possibly 考查副词.make是动词,要用副词修饰.
69.threw 考查动词时态.全文讲述的是过去的事情,要用一般过去时态.  
70.difference 考查固定搭配.make a difference意为"有影响; 起(重要)作用",是固定搭配.

4.Do the exercise15through 25,Give the different forms of the verbs on page50of your French workbook.Read page12through 20of the Shakespeare play,and when you have finished that,don't forget to fill the missing chemical symbols on the Periodic Table of Elements worksheet.
Homework is a major part of going to class,and it helps students grasp important concepts.Luckily,you can do a few things to make homework less painful.
First,be sure you understand the assignment.Write it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to,and don't be afraid to ask questions about what is expected.It is much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later at night!
Second,use any extra time you have in school to work on your homework.Many schools have study halls that are specifically designed to allow students to study or get homework done.It is attractive to hang out with friends during study periods or unscheduled time,but the more work you can get done in school,the less you will have to do at night.
Third,pace yourself.If you don't finish your homework during school,think about how much you have left and what else is going on that day,and then budget your time.Most high school students have between 1and 3hours of homework a night.If it is a heavy-homework day and it seems like you have got an assignment on every subject but gym and lunch,you will need to devote more time to homework schedule,especially if you are involved in sports or activities or have an after-school job.
28.The first paragraph is probablyB.
A.examination items                                
B.a list of homework
C.some teacher training tasks                
D.some learning methods
29.What is the author's attitude towards homework's effect on students?C

A.take part in studying teams                         
B.appeal for teachers'aid at any time

Even though science can tell us that some of our traditional beliefs don't hold water,there is still a lot of truth in the old wives'tales.After,much of this knowledge has been accumulated(积累)from thousands of years of experience in family health care.We should respect this body of knowledge even as we search for clear scientific support to prove it true or false.

2.Like most bees,the ground nesting Anthophora squammulosa bees(花条蜂) live alone.The females lay their eggs in little underground nests and then head out to search for food to feed their developing larvae(幼虫).This process usually takes place in environments with plenty of plants,to insure a reliable supply of food.
So you can imagine how Hilary Erenler felt when she came across some Anthophora squammulosa bees around the ashes of the active Masaya volcano.How could they survive in such a severe condition!
The bees appeared to be living in a small area of ash close to what is called"kill zone"by researchers,The area is known i:or its extreme temperatures which can get as high as 42°C (107.6°F).
Then what do these bees eat?Former research has shown that they feed on a wide variety of plants.However,the insects living on the Masaya volcano's edge are not so lucky.When the scientists analyzed the food from the female bees'bodies,they discovered that 99 percent of all food collected came from a hardy wildflower that can stand the hard conditions.
The researchers think the bees live here to keep safe.It could also be because very few plants can grow on the volcano's side.As a result,the underground bee nests aren't broken up by their fast-growing roots:,as often happens in"normal"environments.But safe as they may appear,Erenler notes that this group of bees could be in even more danger.A volcano eruption or the death of the single plant they depend on for food would destroy the entire population.
Researchers warn we shouldn't stop our conservation efforts to save the precious insects that are dying at shocking rates owing to the loss of habitat and human behavior.

25.How did Hilary Erenler feel when seeing Anthophora squammulosa bees around the Masaya volcano?C
A.Frightened.
B.Painful.
C.Surprised.
D.Delighted.
26.How did the researchers learn about what the bees eat?C
A.By looking for their habitat.
B.By observing them in the lab.
C.By examining the food in the bees'bodies.
D.By referring to previous study records.
27.Why do these bees live around the volcano according to the researchers?A
A.They could find safety there.
B.They like the hot temperature.
C.They are raised there for experiments.
D.There is a special flower they like best.
28.What can we infer about the bees from the text?B
A.The females lay larvae.
B.Their future is worrying.
C.They are in large numbers.
D.They live in the roots of the plants.

9.Today,widespread social pressure to immediately go to college together with increasingly high expectations in a fast-moving world often causes students to completely overlook the possibility of taking a gap year.And after going to school for 12 years,it doesn't feel natural to spend a year during something that isn't academic.
But despite common misconceptions,a gap year does not impede the success of academics-in fact,it probably promotes it.
Studies show that students who take a gap year are generally better prepared for and perform better in college than those who do not.Gap year experiences can lessen the difficulty when it comes to adjusting to college and being thrown into a brand new environment,making it easier to focus on academics and activities.
Nearly 80 percent of college students end up changing their majors at least once.Many students find themselves listing one major on their college applications,but switching to another after taking college classes.At Boston College,for example,you would have to complete an extra year were you to switch to the nursing school from another department.Taking a gap year to figure things out initially can help prevent stress and save money later on.
Many people,however,argue that the gap year itself can take much money.That's a math.There are formal gap year programs that are rather pricey,but there are also many opportunities to volunteer and receive free housing or even get paid for your gap year.
Perhaps the most convincing reason for taking a gap year is that it offers a unique opportunity that will likely never reappear.After graduating from college,it's possible to take some time off.Students should think about the next step in their future lives:Don't rule out anything,including a gap year.

25.What might be the author's purpose by writing the passage?B
A.To explain what the gap year really is.
B.To prove the necessity of the gap year.
C.To introduce the way to take the gap year.
D.To describe the students taking their gap year.
26.What stops students taking their gap year?D
A.The pricey gap year programs.
B.Bad performance in high school.
C.High expectations for college life.
D.Worrying about falling behind in study.
27.What can we know about students from the passage?B
A.Nearly 80 percent of college students change their majors only once.
B.High school students have little experience to choose college majors.
C.many new comers of college are suffering from acclimation blunders.
D.All colleges allow their students to change their majors free of charge.
28.What is the author's attitude towards the gap year?A
A.Favorable.
B.Critical.
C.Concerned.
D.Indifferent.

8.请阅读下面材枓,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章.

Bike-sharing has taken off in China far faster than in any other market.The market has become flooded with new companies in recent months.The bike-sharing companies operate in a similar way.They use apps that allow users,after paying a deposit,to unlock the wheels with their smartphones.After the journey,users can leave bikes anywhere in public and pay a little money for the use.The service is very popular as it provides an effective solution to"the last kilometer"problem.The promoting of the bike-sharing service is also raising questions about profitability,wide-spread bike vandalism (破坏) and theft,and growing government regulation.A Hong Kong man who was arrested for throwing several shared bikes into rivers said he had no regret destroying them because"the GPS devices in the bikes give away users'personal information,such as their locations."
【写作内容】
1.用约30个单词概述上述信息的主要内容;
2.用约120个单词发表你的观点,内容包括:
(1)支持成反对共享单车的推广;
(2)用2-3个理由或论据支撑你的观点.
【写作要求】
1.写作过程中不能直接引用原文语句;
2.作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称;
3.不必写标题.
【评分标准】
内容完整,语言规范,语篇还贯,词数适当.
The passage conveys to us the bike-sharing boom across the country,with more companies springing up in the market.The service not only brings great convenience to people,but causes some problems as well.
From my standpoint,bike-sharing system has become an essential part of public transportation in cities and should be actively promoted.Firstly,with an increasing number of people choosing the service to get around,the number of cars on the roads will decrease dramatically,which really helps the environment and reduces traffic jams.Furthermore,this service also benefits individuals in various ways.For example,it provides locals and tourists with a convenient,cheap and healthy means of transport.Those who would otherwise use their own bicycles don't need to be concerned about such problems as theft,storage and maintenance.
In a word,bike sharing is an innovative service,which relieves urban traffic pressure and brings citizens enormous benefits.And more shared bikes should be launched into the market.

9.Despite the popularity of dieting and exercising,more people are bigger than they used to be.
The US is the (21)most overweight (overweight) country in the world.But (22)to many people's surprise,China ranks second,with 46million obese (肥胖的) adults and 300million overweight.
So why are so many Chinese getting overweight?
According to The Wall Street Journal,China's weight has grown with its economy.With incomes growing,families (23)can afford to eat a lot more food---especially fatty foods like meat.From 1980to 2013,the average Chinese's meat consumption (24)increased (increase) from 12.7kg to 60kg per year.
Unhealthy lifestyles also contribute to China's obesity problems.Many Chinese families are eating more deep-fried and junk food while exercising little.
It is also likely (25)that the family planning policy has created a land of little emperors,(26)who are spoiled by their parents and not asked to do any labor at home,commented The Wall Street Journal.
The trend could lead to big problems,as obesity can have severe health consequences.According to the World Health Organization,around 2,8million adults die each year (27)because ofobesity-related diseases such as diabetes(糖尿病),heart diseases and cancer.
(28)To encourage (encourage) exercise among Chinese,the government is working to increase the nation'public sporting areas to 1.5square meters per capita by 2015,Xinhua reported.It is also considering adding PE to the national college entrance examination.
