16．[1]In America，when the eighth graders leave the middle school，they are often worried about moving to the high schoo1．It is a hard time for them，but it can be an exciting one as well．To make it easier，students need to get familiar with their school．
[2]Even though they've done this already in the middle schoo1，it's still important to find where their classrooms are．Most schools take students to the high school for a visit at the end of their eighth grade year．And most schools also have a freshman speech for parents and students before the first year begins．Sometimes the main office will give away a map of the schoo1．This can help students and parents to find different places of the schoo1．
[3]One way to know your high school more and make new friends is to _______________or play a sport．Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports．Fall activities begin in August before the first day of schoo1．If you are not interested in sports，there are clubs for any interest，such as drama，dance，chess，photography，community service，etc．These clubs allow students from different grades．By joining an activity，students can find new friendships，not to mention improving their chances in future college applications．The school office will have a 1ist of activities offered at the schoo1 and information on how to join them．
[4]What's more，to have a great start to a high school year，students can write down some of their worries and ask for help from teachers and school workers．

66．What does the word"it"in the first paragraph refer to？（no more than 5words）moving to the high school．
67．Why do many schools take students to visit their new high school？（no more than 10words）To make the students get familiar with their school．．
68．Fill in the blank in paragraph 3with proper words．（no more than 3words）join a club．
69．What can the students benefit from joining an activity？（no more than 10words）
①make new friends②improve their chances in future college applications．
70．What is the purpose of this passage？（no more than 12words）To give advice to new high school students．．

分析 本文為說明文．介紹了美國八年級學(xué)生如何開展即將到來的高中生活．

解答 66．moving to the high school 第一段提到，美國八年級學(xué)生中學(xué)畢業(yè)后，往往擔心高中的生活．所以"it"代指"moving to the high school"．
67．To make the students get familiar with their school．在第一段最后"students need to get familiar with their school．"為了幫助學(xué)生盡早熟悉高中，學(xué)校會帶著學(xué)生參觀一下校園．
68．join a club 開頭這句為主題語．根據(jù)下文的"Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports"可以看出，結(jié)交新朋友的途徑為參加俱樂部．
69．make new friends  improve their chances in future college applications．從文中"By joining an activity，students can find new friendships，not to mention improving their chances in future college applications"這句話可以概括，參加學(xué)校活動的兩個好處．
70．To give advice to new high school students．主旨大意概括題．根據(jù)文章第一段以及整個文章內(nèi)容，可以得知文章大意為"給即將踏入高中的學(xué)生一些建議．"

點評 閱讀表達主要考察學(xué)生在閱讀文章基礎(chǔ)上，對信息整合重組的能力．一般要求學(xué)生先整體閱讀文章，然后帶著問題尋找答案，并注意字數(shù)的限制．

7．Sounds crazy？Fans across the UAE（阿聯(lián)酋）are so excited as Justin Bieber is scheduled to perform at a stadium in Dubai on May 4．In less than 36 hours all the tickets available were sold out．
If you have a teenager lying under your roof，it's likely that she has spent your hard-earned cash on some concert tickets．Clare Smart，a researcher on teenage development in Dubai，has some ideas about the pop phenomenon．"Justin Bieber is a teenager himself and therefore teenagers feel a connection to him，in the songs that he sings，his hairstyle and how he dresses…h(huán)e represents what many teenagers would like for themselves，such as the latest clothing trends，exciting travel and high earnings．Besides，it gives teenagers the feeling of being part of a group and a shared experience with other teenagers who have the same interest in a particular celebrity…"says Smart．
    It's easy to be sheltering as a parent and it's a good idea to talk to your teenagers about their idols，find out what they like about them and why．"You could accompany your teenagers to a concert or listen along to the latest song in the car with them，"suggests Smart．"This shows that you are interested in the things they consider to be important．"
Sometimes，however，a normal level of interest slips into an obsession （癡迷） and then it becomes a cause for concern．It is now considered a personality disorder，which is closely related to higher levels of depression，anxiety and stress．In practice，teenagers who are overly obsessed with stars often have damaged relationships with their parents．
    The good news，however，is that there is plenty that parents can do to prevent their teenagers from becoming overly obsessed with those so called celebrities．Let them know what their real life is like behind the story，and they can see these celebrities in a new angle．
46．What does the first paragraph intend to tell the reader？C
A．How expensive the concert tickets are．
B．Why teenagers love music concerts．
C．How popular Justin Bieber is．
D．What idols teenagers worship．
47．According to Clare Smart，Justin Bieber represents teenagers'A．
A．dreams           B．families         C．friendship           D．trouble
48．According to Para 2，teenagers can getCfrom worshiping an idol．
A．a(chǎn) knowledge of pop culture                   B．a(chǎn)n easier way to become famous
C．a(chǎn) sense of belonging                         D．a(chǎn) closer relationship with parents
49．What does Clare Smart tell US in Para 3？D
A．Teenagers and parents often have a tense relationship．
B．Parents always have the same interests as the teenagers．
C．Celebrity worship exist among different age groups．
D．Parents should understand and protect the teenagers．
50．If teenagers are overly obsessed with celebrities，theyB．
A．will establish a connection with their idols
B．a(chǎn)ctually suffer from a personality disorder
C．often see themselves as a particular celebrity
D．a(chǎn)lways care too much about their friends．

4．[1]Calling a taxi is easy-you stand in the street and stretch out your hand．But have you tried to call a taxi using a mobile application （軟件）？It's not hard-you download a taxi-calling application，input your location and destination，click"calling"and wait for a taxi to pick you up．Didi taxi and Kuaidi Taxi are two of the most popular taxi apps．
[2]However，what appeals to people about the apps is not only convenience but also potential prizes．In early January，Didi announced that for each successful ride arranged over the app，both passengers and drivers get 10 yuan subsidies （補貼）．A few days later，Kuaidi decided to offer 10 yuan for passengers and 15 yuan for drivers per ride．
[3]However popular the  taxi-calling  apps  may  be，questions  have  arisen．One  big  concern is safety．In order to claim as many subsidies as possible，some  drivers constantly check the apps to grab more taxi calls，even while they're driving．"It greatly distracts drivers'attention，thus causing a threat to road safety，"Beijing Review commented．Meanwhile，like many other digital devices，apps  may be quite  handy for tech-savvy young people，but it could bring a challenge for senior citizens who don't know how to use them，commented China Daily．"As drivers prefer taking taxi orders from apps，they will overlook those people standing on the street，"Beijing Review continued．
[4]"Taxi-calling apps are a new thing and we should observe them carefully，"said Liu Xiaohua，deputy director of Guangdong Transport Department．"Authorities are expected to regulate the market when they cause safety issues or market disorder．"
[5]Some cities_______．Beijing said last month that each taxi is only allowed to be linked with one taxi-calling app，China Daily reported．In Shanghai，drivers will be banned from using these apps during rush hour starting on March l．The city also decided to include these taxi apps in its own taxi-calling service platform．
66．What's the main idea of the text？（ no more than 15 words）Taxi-calling apps have benefited people，but they also cause problems．
67．Complete the following sentence using a proper word from Paragraph 2．
Apart from saving us money，calling a taxi using a mobile app also brings usconvenience
68．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about？（ no more than 5 words）Questions/Problems caused by taxi-calling apps．
69．What does the underlined word"they"in Paragraph 4 refer to？Taxi-calling apps．

1．Ecotourism is one of the fastest growing sectors in tourism． More and more of us are becoming concerned about the effects we are having on the destinations we choose，as well as the world around us． Some of us are choosing more green modes of transport to get there instead of flying，and some of us are choosing to visit greener destinations． India is one of the best places for ecotourism，and with the destinations below you can be sure that you'll not only be protecting the earth，but giving something back to the area too．
Kerala，more commonly known as"God's Own Country"，is a beautiful state on the southern tip of India． It's a biologically diverse area，with many unique animal species，and almost 2，500 plant species in its tropical forests-that's nearly a quarter of all India's plant groups． In the past，though the forests in this area were much cleared，today they are well protected． There are plenty of wildlife reserves where you can see some of these unique animals．

Arunachal Pradesh，situated on the most northern tip of India，is a resort for the more adventurous． With dry，desert heat in the summer and a snowfall best avoided in the winter，this area is less about greenery，and more about stunning desert landscapes． When visiting this amazing area，you'll be promoting locals earning income from their surroundings，encouraging them to make the most of them and preserve them，as well as gradually increasing their quality of life．
As a north Indian province，Ladakh supports much rare and even endangered plants and animals，which can be seen at Hemis High Altitude National Park． There are also many Tibetan monasteries，including the Hemis Monastery，to visit in the area．
76． Why do people regard Kerala as a biologically diverse area？（no more than 15 words）Because there live many unique animal species and almost 2，500 plant species．

79． According to the passage，where would you like to go if you intend to study some endangered animals and plants？（no more than 7 words）Hemis High Altitude National Park in Ladakh

5．Celebrities（名人） are more in love with themselves than the average person，according to a new study．
In case anyone needed proof，a new study supports the widely held perception：Famous people are more narcissistic（自我陶醉的），which means they are more in love with themselves than the average person is．That is the conclusion drawn by Drew Pinsky and S．Mark Young of the University of Southern California，whose study of 200celebrities will appear in the Journal Of Research in Personality．
It is not the entertainment industry that turns stars into narcissists，the study found．Rather，it suggests，the self-adoring（自戀的）people seek jobs in show business．The study，whose subjects were a11celebrities from Pinsky's‘Loveline'radio show，found that reality TV stars were the most narcissistic of all celebrities．Female stars were also more likely than the male stars to exhibit narcissistic characteristics．
It's"common sense"that celebrities are narcissists，said Jeremy Ritzlin，a longtime Hollywood psychologist who has not seen the study．"Everyone knows famous people are really in love with themselves，"he said．"So it would be natural for narcissists to be attracted toward the stage and spotlight，where other people will also think highly of them．"
Pinsky，an assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at USC'S Keck School of Medicine，said narcissists desire attention，are overconfident，behave strangely and lack sympathy．"However，they are easily-liked，especially on first meeting，are outgoing and perform well in public，"added Pinsky，who has hosted the radio show"Loveline"for 20years．
Celebrity guests appearing on the program were randomly chosen to participate in the study．They anonymously（匿名地）took the Narcissistic Personality Inventory test．which rates self-love levels based on seven components：superiority，exhibitionism，entitlement，vanity，authority，exploitativeness，and self-sufficiency．

36．Who are most likely to be self-adoring in the study？A
A．The women stars．    B．The men stars
C．The average people．  D．It is not mentioned in the passage．
37．According to the forth paragraph．the fact"celebrities are narcissists"C．
A．is common in the entertainment industry
B．is a misunderstanding of Jeremy Ritzlin
C．is known to most of the people
D．is unreal on the stage
38．According to Pinsky，narcissists may NOTB．
A．hope to attract attention
B．be kind to poor people
C．believe in themselves
D．be liked by others easily
39．How were the celebrities surveyed in the study？D
A．They were interviewed by Drew Pinsky and S．Mark Young．
B．They were invited to the University of Southern California．
C．They appeared on Pinsky's‘Loveline'radio show．
D．They took the Narcissistic Personality Inventory test．
40．The author of this passage wants to tell USD．
A．how psychologists make a study
B．how entertainment industry produces celebrities
C．how people think of the famous stars
D．how celebrities feel about themselves．
