The life of a premature (早产的) baby born during the winter storm in Texas was saved thanks to a team of medical professionals, including a doctor and two nurses who travelled from East Austin to Marble Falls in an effort to save a newborn baby’s life.
When Arias began experiencing pains, she and her parents headed to the closest hospital, Baylor Scott & White. Arias gave birth to her daughter, Zaylynn, who weighed just over one pound and was in need of advanced special care. However, the hospital does not offer the specialized care premature babies require.
“We had five or six people out at the nurses’ station calling hospital networks all over the state of Texas,” said Meredith Schubert, the labor and delivery nurse on duty when Arias arrived. “Nobody could answer our cry for help.”
They finally reached Dr. John Loyd through a patient, division neonatologist (新生儿学专家) chief at Dell Children’s Medical Center in Austin, Texas. Around 5 p.m., after already having worked a full shift, Loyd packed his SUV with equipment and he and two nurses set out for Marble Falls, about 55 miles away. The drive took Loyd and the nurses about two hours as they drove in the night through ice and snow.
After safely arriving at the medical center in Marble Falls around 8 pm, the Dell Children’s crew set up a temporary newborn ICU. Together, the Dell Children’s and Baylor Scott & White teams worked around the clock to care for the mother and daughter.
Once the weather cleared enough to allow for a helicopter to safely land, Zaylynn was transferred to Dell Children’s, where there is a Level IV newborn intensive care unit.
Schubert said, “It was a huge relief and a sense of accomplishment and joy that Zaylynn finally got to the place that she needed to be.”
Arias said that she was grateful to the doctors and nurses who worked together to save her daughter.
4. What did the newborn baby need badly
A. Professional surgery. B. Experienced doctors.
C. Immediate transfer. D. special intensive care.
5. Which word best describes Schubert and her colleagues’ cry for help before reaching Loyd
A. Timely B. Hopeful C. Desperate D. Encouraging
6. What made the doctors and nurses feel a sense of relief
A. The baby’s arrival at her destination. B. The baby’s improvement.
C. The take-off of the helicopter. D. The fine weather.
7. Which of the following best describes the whole story
A. It is never too old to learn.
B. Rome was not built in a single day.
C. Where there is a will there is a way.
D. When trouble occurs at one spot, help comes from all places.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. D

One of the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are.
When we see something we don’t like, we wish it could be different. We cry out for something better. That may be human nature, or perhaps it’s something ingrained(根深蒂固的) in our culture. The root of the unhappiness isn’t necessarily that we want things to be different. However, it’s that we decided we didn’t like it in the first place. We’ve judged it as bad, rather than saying, “It’s not bad or good, and it just is it.”
In one of my books, I said “You should expect people to mess up and expect things to go differently than you planned”. Some readers said it’s too sorrowful to expect things to go wrong. However, it’s only negative if you see it as negative and judge it as bad. Instead, you could accept it as the way the world works and try to understand why that is.
This can be applied to whatever you do: how other people act at work, how politics works and how depressing the news media can be. Accept these things as they are, and try to understand why they’re that way. It will save you a lot of sadness, because you’ll no longer say, “Oh. I wish bad things didn’t happen!”
Does it mean you can never change things Not at all. But change things not because you can’t accept things as they are, but because you enjoy the process of changing, learning and growing.
Can we make this world a better place You can say that you’ll continue to try to do things to help others, to grow as a person, to make a difference in this world. That’s the correct path you choose to take, because you enjoy that path. Therefore, when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference, try a different approach: accept, and understand. It might lead to some interesting results.
8. The author believes that we feel unhappy maybe because ________.
A. it is our natural emotion in the life
B. culture asks us to be different from others
C. everyone has their own opinions on things
D. we dislike something in the beginning
9. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to
A. Acting well at work and in politics.
B. Feeling depressed for the news media.
C. Accepting and understanding what has happened.
D. Saying something negative when bad things come.
10. What are you advised according to the last paragraph
A. Help others and make a difference.
B. Enjoy what you have to do in the work.
C. Judge yourself and make a wish for you.
D. Try a new way when making the world better.
11. What is the main theme of the passage
A. Accepting can make our life happier and better.
B. Expecting things to be different gives us hope.
C. Traditional culture becomes root of unhappiness.
D. Judging good or bad is important for our world.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】

【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段Accept these things as they are, and try to understand why they’re that way. It will save you a lot of sadness, because you’ll no longer say, “Oh. I wish bad things didn’t happen!”(接受这些事情的本来面目，试着去理解它们为什么会这样。它会帮你省去很多悲伤，因为你不会再说“哦。我希望坏事不要发生!”)推知，it指的是“接受并理解发生了什么。”故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句Can we make this world a better place 以及最后when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference, try a different approach: accept, and understand. It might lead to some interesting results.可知，最后一段建议我们尝试一种新的方式，让世界变得更美好。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中One of the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are.和最后一段中try a different approach: accept, and understand.可知，本文讲述的是“接受能让我们的生活更快乐、更美好。”故选A。
【易错分析】抓住文章主线和关键词语，归纳文章中心。
要注意不是所有的段落都有主题句，有时主题句暗含在句中。阅读这样的文章，就需要自己根据文章的细节来分析，概括出段落的主题，从而推导出文章的主旨。分析的方法是：先弄清该段落主要讲了哪几方面的内容，这些内容在逻辑上有什么联系，然后加以归纳形成主题。本题第4小题，根据第一段One of the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are.和最后一段中try a different approach: accept, and understand.可知，本文讲述的是“接受能让我们的生活更快乐、更美好。”故选A。

Drive through any suburb in the U.S. today, and it’s hard to miss the recycling bins that have become companions to America’s trash cans. Recycling has become common, as people recognize the need to care for the environment. Yet most people’s recycling consciousness extends only as far as paper, bottle, and cans. People seldom find themselves facing the growing problem of e-waste.
E-waste rapidly increases as the techno-fashionable frequently upgrade to the most advanced devices, and the majority of them end up in landfills. Some people who track such wastes say that users throw away nearly 2 million tons of TVs, VCRs, computers, cell phones, and other electronics every year. Unless we can find a safe replacement, this e-waste may get into the ground and poison the water with dangerous toxins (毒素), such as lead, mercury, and arsenic. Burning the waste also dangerously contaminates the air.
However, e-waste often contains reusable silver, gold, and other electrical materials. Recycling these materials reduces environmental problems by reducing both landfill waste and the need to look for such metals, which can destroy ecosystems.
A growing number of states nave adopted laws to ban dumping e-waste. Still, less than a quarter of this waste will reach lawful recycling programs. Some companies advertising safe disposal (处理) in fact merely ship the waste to some developing countries, where it still ends up in landfills. These organizations prevent progress by unsafely disposing of waste in an out-of-sight, out-of-mind location.
However, the small but growing number of cities and corporations that do handle e-waste responsibly represents progress toward making the world a cleaner, better place for us all.
12. What can we infer from the first paragraph
A. E-waste cannot be put into trash cans in the U.S.
B. Most Americans have realized the dangers of e-waste.
C. Many Americans now have access to recycling bins.
D. Most of America’s trash cans are made of recycled material.
13. Which can best replace the underlined word “contaminates” in Paragraph 2
A. Pollutes. B. Heats. C. Absorbs. D. Reduces.
14. Which statement is right according to the article
A. The e-waste buried in the landfills won’t destroy ecosystem.
B. More and more states have banned dumping e-waste by making laws.
C. Much e-waste has been handled properly.
D. Some developing countries welcome e-waste.
15 What’s the author’s purpose in writing this text
A. To tell us how to recycle e-waste.
B. To talk about the future of e-waste.
C. To encourage us to deal with e-waste properly.
D. To discuss if it’s necessary to recycle e-waste.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了日益严重的电子垃圾现象。电子垃圾日益增多，如果处理不当，会对土壤，地下水，空气都产生危害。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Drive through any suburb in the U.S. today, and it’s hard to miss the recycling bins that have become companions to America’s trash cans. Recycling has become common, as people recognize the need to care for the environment.(今天，在美国的任何一个郊区开车，你都很难错过那些与美国的垃圾桶形影不离的回收箱。随着人们意识到保护环境的必要性，回收利用已经变得很普遍。)”可知，在美国，回收利用已经成为普遍现象，所以，现在许多美国人都可以使用回收箱。故选C项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。划线词上文“Unless we can find a safe replacement, this e-waste may get into the ground and poison the water with dangerous toxins (毒素), such as lead, mercury, and arsenic.(除非我们能找到安全的替代品，否则这些电子垃圾可能会进入地下，并使水中含有危险的毒素，如铅、汞和砷。)”说明电子垃圾会直接污染环境。结合划线词所在句中“Burning the waste also dangerously contaminates the air.”中副词“also”和“dangerously”可推知，上下文是并列关系，所以句中说的是焚烧电子垃圾也会造成“污染”。划线词contaminates与pollute同义，意为“污染”。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“A growing number of states nave adopted laws to ban dumping e-waste.(越来越多的州通过了禁止倾倒电子垃圾的法律。)”可知，“越来越多的州通过立法禁止倾倒电子垃圾”是正确的表述。故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，结合文章最后一段“However, the small but growing number of cities and corporations that do handle e-waste responsibly represents progress toward making the world a cleaner, better place for us all.(然而，越来越多的城市和公司负责任地处理电子垃圾，这代表着我们朝着让世界变得更清洁、更美好的方向取得了进步。)”可知，文章主要介绍了电子垃圾的危害并说明正确处理电子垃圾的重要性。由此推知，作者写这篇文章是为了鼓励人们妥善处理电子垃圾。故选C项。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In a quiet little village surrounded by rolling hills, Lucy and her brother Max were walking to the family’s strawberry fields to pick some strawberries when they came across an injured baby owl (猫头鹰). The tiny owl was lying on the ground, with one of its wings badly hurt and its big, brown eyes looking helplessly at the teens. Lucy and Max were animal lovers and they knew they had to do something to help the poor, little creature.
“We have to save this baby owl. Max,” Lucy said as she knelt down beside the bird.
Max nodded. “I agree. But where can we take it ”
Lucy thought for a moment and then remembered a wildlife rehabilitation center (野生动物康复) located a few miles away. They quickly placed the baby owl in the small box they had planned to put strawberries in. Max took off his shirt to cover the box to keep the bird warm. They carefully placed the box in their backpack and headed out to the center.
The journey was not without its challenges. The skies suddenly darkened and the rain began to pour down, wetting Lucy and Max completely in seconds. But they were determined to save the baby owl, and so they trudged on (步履艰难地走), searching for shelter from the rain. They finally found a big tree to hide under and huddled (蜷缩) together, trying to keep the box dry:
As the rain continued to fall, Lucy and Max looked at the baby owl in the box. It was so small and weak. They felt a sense of determination and protectiveness towards the little bird. They knew that they had to save it, no matter what.
Gradually, the rain got weaker and Lucy and Max continued their journey. They walked along a winding path, which was wet and slippery. They had to use some tree branches as walking sticks to provide them with extra support and to ensure their stability.
注意：1. 续写词数应150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Lucy and Max finally approached the wildlife rehabilitation center, wet and dirty.

The weeks passed quickly, and one day Lucy and Max received a call from the head of the rehabilitation center.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Lucy and Max finally approached the wildlife rehabilitation center, wet and dirty. They were greeted by a kind, elderly lady who was the head of the center. She immediately took the baby owl from their hands and examined its wing. The lady told them that the owl had a broken bone and would need to stay at the center for a few weeks to receive proper care and treatment. The two teens were praised by the center staff for their love and care for wild animals.
The weeks passed quickly, and one day Lucy and Max received a call from the head of the rehabilitation center They were told that the baby owl had fully recovered. It was now time for the little bird to be released back into the wild. They were invited to witness the wonderful scene. Lucy and Max were overjoyed to see the owl fly away, soaring high into the sky. They watched in awe as the bird disappeared into the distance, free once again. From that day forward, Lucy and Max learned that with a little bit of love and hard work, anything is possible. They also learned that even the smallest act of kindness can have a big impact.

The life of a premature (早产的) baby born during the winter storm in Texas was saved thanks to a team of medical professionals, including a doctor and two nurses who travelled from East Austin to Marble Falls in an effort to save a newborn baby’s life.
When Arias began experiencing pains, she and her parents headed to the closest hospital, Baylor Scott & White. Arias gave birth to her daughter, Zaylynn, who weighed just over one pound and was in need of advanced special care. However, the hospital does not offer the specialized care premature babies require.
“We had five or six people out at the nurses’ station calling hospital networks all over the state of Texas,” said Meredith Schubert, the labor and delivery nurse on duty when Arias arrived. “Nobody could answer our cry for help.”
They finally reached Dr. John Loyd through a patient, division neonatologist (新生儿学专家) chief at Dell Children’s Medical Center in Austin, Texas. Around 5 p.m., after already having worked a full shift, Loyd packed his SUV with equipment and he and two nurses set out for Marble Falls, about 55 miles away. The drive took Loyd and the nurses about two hours as they drove in the night through ice and snow.
After safely arriving at the medical center in Marble Falls around 8 pm, the Dell Children’s crew set up a temporary newborn ICU. Together, the Dell Children’s and Baylor Scott & White teams worked around the clock to care for the mother and daughter.
Once the weather cleared enough to allow for a helicopter to safely land, Zaylynn was transferred to Dell Children’s, where there is a Level IV newborn intensive care unit.
Schubert said, “It was a huge relief and a sense of accomplishment and joy that Zaylynn finally got to the place that she needed to be.”
Arias said that she was grateful to the doctors and nurses who worked together to save her daughter.
4. What did the newborn baby need badly
A. Professional surgery. B. Experienced doctors.
C. Immediate transfer. D. special intensive care.
5. Which word best describes Schubert and her colleagues’ cry for help before reaching Loyd
A. Timely B. Hopeful C. Desperate D. Encouraging
6 What made the doctors and nurses feel a sense of relief
A The baby’s arrival at her destination. B. The baby’s improvement.
C. The take-off of the helicopter. D. The fine weather.
7. Which of the following best describes the whole story
A. It is never too old to learn.
B. Rome was not built in a single day.
C. Where there is a will, there is a way.
D. When trouble occurs at one spot, help comes from all places.
C
One of the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are.
When we see something we don’t like, we wish it could be different. We cry out for something better. That may be human nature, or perhaps it’s something ingrained(根深蒂固的) in our culture. The root of the unhappiness isn’t necessarily that we want things to be different. However, it’s that we decided we didn’t like it in the first place. We’ve judged it as bad, rather than saying, “It’s not bad or good, and it just is it.”
In one of my books, I said “You should expect people to mess up and expect things to go differently than you planned”. Some readers said it’s too sorrowful to expect things to go wrong. However, it’s only negative if you see it as negative and judge it as bad. Instead, you could accept it as the way the world works and try to understand why that is.
This can be applied to whatever you do: how other people act at work, how politics works and how depressing the news media can be. Accept these things as they are, and try to understand why they’re that way. It will save you a lot of sadness, because you’ll no longer say, “Oh. I wish bad things didn’t happen!”
Does it mean you can never change things Not at all. But change things not because you can’t accept things as they are, but because you enjoy the process of changing, learning and growing.
Can we make this world a better place You can say that you’ll continue to try to do things to help others, to grow as a person, to make a difference in this world. That’s the correct path you choose to take, because you enjoy that path. Therefore, when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference, try a different approach: accept, and understand. It might lead to some interesting results.
8. The author believes that we feel unhappy maybe because ________.
A. it is our natural emotion in the life
B. culture asks us to be different from others
C. everyone has their own opinions on things
D. we dislike something in the beginning
9. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to
A. Acting well at work and in politics.
B. Feeling depressed for the news media.
C. Accepting and understanding what has happened.
D. Saying something negative when bad things come.
10. What are you advised according to the last paragraph
A. Help others and make a difference.
B. Enjoy what you have to do in the work.
C. Judge yourself and make a wish for you.
D. Try a new way when making the world better.
11. What is the main theme of the passage
A. Accepting can make our life happier and better.
B. Expecting things to be different gives us hope.
C. Traditional culture becomes root of unhappiness.
D. Judging good or bad is important for our world.
D
Drive through any suburb in the U.S. today, and it’s hard to miss the recycling bins that have become companions to America’s trash cans. Recycling has become common, as people recognize the need to care for the environment. Yet most people’s recycling consciousness extends only as far as paper, bottle, and cans. People seldom find themselves facing the growing problem of e-waste.
E-waste rapidly increases as the techno-fashionable frequently upgrade to the most advanced devices, and the majority of them end up in landfills. Some people who track such wastes say that users throw away nearly 2 million tons of TVs, VCRs, computers, cell phones, and other electronics every year. Unless we can find a safe replacement, this e-waste may get into the ground and poison the water with dangerous toxins (毒素), such as lead, mercury, and arsenic. Burning the waste also dangerously contaminates the air.
However, e-waste often contains reusable silver, gold, and other electrical materials. Recycling these materials reduces environmental problems by reducing both landfill waste and the need to look for such metals, which can destroy ecosystems.
A growing number of states nave adopted laws to ban dumping e-waste. Still, less than a quarter of this waste will reach lawful recycling programs. Some companies advertising safe disposal (处理) in fact merely ship the waste to some developing countries, where it still ends up in landfills. These organizations prevent progress by unsafely disposing of waste in an out-of-sight, out-of-mind location.
However, the small but growing number of cities and corporations that do handle e-waste responsibly represents progress toward making the world a cleaner, better place for us all.
12. What can we infer from the first paragraph
A. E-waste cannot be put into trash cans in the U.S.
B. Most Americans have realized the dangers of e-waste.
C. Many Americans now have access to recycling bins.
D. Most of America’s trash cans are made of recycled material.
13. Which can best replace the underlined word “contaminates” in Paragraph 2
A. Pollutes. B. Heats. C. Absorbs. D. Reduces.
14. Which statement is right according to the article
A. The e-waste buried in the landfills won’t destroy ecosystem.
B More and more states have banned dumping e-waste by making laws.
C. Much e-waste has been handled properly.
D. Some developing countries welcome e-waste.
15. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this text
A. To tell us how to recycle e-waste.
B. To talk about the future of e-waste.
C. To encourage us to deal with e-waste properly.
D. To discuss if it’s necessary to recycle e-waste.

Preparing for exams Give yourself the best chance with these study tips,and try not to let the stress get to you! Remember:you've got this.
Give yourself enough time to study. ___16___While some students do seem to succeed depending on last-minute hard-work, it's widely accepted that this is not the best way. To help sort out your time management, set up a timetable for your study and organize it accordingly.
Use flow charts and diagrams.___17___ At the start of a topic, challenge yourself to write down everything you already know about a topic-and then highlight where the gaps lie. Closer to the exam,simplify your revision notes into one-page diagrams, which can help you to quickly recall everything you need during the exam.

In a quiet little village surrounded by rolling hills, Lucy and her brother Max were walking to the family’s strawberry fields to pick some strawberries when they came across an injured baby owl (猫头鹰). The tiny owl was lying on the ground, with one of its wings badly hurt and its big, brown eyes looking helplessly at the teens. Lucy and Max were animal lovers and they knew they had to do something to help the poor, little creature.
“We have to save this baby owl. Max,” Lucy said as she knelt down beside the bird.
Max nodded. “I agree. But where can we take it ”
Lucy thought for a moment and then remembered a wildlife rehabilitation center (野生动物康复) located a few miles away. They quickly placed the baby owl in the small box they had planned to put strawberries in. Max took off his shirt to cover the box to keep the bird warm. They carefully placed the box in their backpack and headed out to the center.
The journey was not without its challenges. The skies suddenly darkened and the rain began to pour down, wetting Lucy and Max completely in seconds. But they were determined to save the baby owl, and so they trudged on (步履艰难地走), searching for shelter from the rain. They finally found a big tree to hide under and huddled (蜷缩) together, trying to keep the box dry:
As the rain continued to fall, Lucy and Max looked at the baby owl in the box. It was so small and weak. They felt a sense of determination and protectiveness towards the little bird. They knew that they had to save it, no matter what.
Gradually, the rain got weaker and Lucy and Max continued their journey. They walked along a winding path, which was wet and slippery. They had to use some tree branches as walking sticks to provide them with extra support and to ensure their stability.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Lucy and Max finally approached the wildlife rehabilitation center, wet and dirty.

The weeks passed quickly, and one day Lucy and Max received a call from the head of the rehabilitation center.
