He met her at a party. She was outstanding; many guys were after her, but nobody paid any attention to him. After the party, he invited her for coffee. She was surprised, so as not to appear rude, she went along. As they sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything and she felt uncomfortable. Suddenly, he asked the waiter, “Could you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee.” They stared at him. He turned red, but when the salt came, he put it in his coffee and drank. Curious, she asked, "Why salt with coffee?" He explained, “When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea. I liked playing on the sea. I could feel it salty, like salty coffee. Now every time I drink it, I think of my childhood and my hometown. I miss it and my parents, who are still there.”

She was deeply moved. A man who can admit that he's homesick must love his home and care about his family. He must be responsible. She talked too, about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family. That was the start to their love story. They continued to date. She found that he met all her requirements. He was tolerant, kind, warm and careful. And to think she would have missed the catch if not for the salty coffee! So they married and lived happily together. And every time she made coffee for him, she put in some salt, the way he liked it.

After 40 years, he passed away and left her a letter which said:

My dearest, please forgive my life-long lie. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous that I asked for salt instead of sugar. It was hard for me to ask for a change, so I just went ahead. I never thought that we would hit it off. Many times, I tried to tell you the truth, but I was afraid that it would ruin everything. Sweetheart, I don't exactly like salty coffee. But as it mattered so much to you, I've learnt to enjoy it. Having you with me was my greatest happiness. If I could live a second time, I hope we can be together again, even if it means that I have to drink salty coffee for the rest of my life.

Her tears made the letter totally wet. Someday, someone asked her, “What’s the taste of salty coffee?” “It’s sweet,” she replied.

25. What does the writer mean by saying “she would have missed the catch”?

A. She meant to leave him on their first date. B. She thought of him every now and then.

C. She nearly misunderstood his explanation. D. She could hardly believe this simple fact. 26. Why did the man have salty coffee all his life?

A. To change lifestyle.B. To please his wife.

C. To keep his word. D. To remember the past. 27. The best title for the passage might be _____.

A. A Well-kept SecretB. Salty Coffee

C. A mistake for loveD. A Homesick Man

Beavers（河狸） are a very unique species in the world of nature and wildlife--they are architects. Their dams are fine examples of engineering.

A pair of beavers will build a dam, using branches, mud and stones, across a river. The water held back by the dam flows over the bank on either side of the river, flooding the nearby ground and forming a pond. At some point in the pond the beavers then build their home, which is called a lodge. This consists of a cone-shaped(锥状的)pipe of branches and sticks of two to six feet in length held together with mud and stones, the top of which projects above the waterline. It serves as a shelter from the bad weather, a safety from enemies and a base for food supplies to be drawn upon in winter.

From an engineering point of view the lodge could hardly be improved. Not only does it contain a central room just above water level, which is accessible only through underwater tunnels, but it also has “walls”, one or more escape tunnels and an air hole at the top, which controls the temperature inside and gives air-conditioning. It is altogether a clever piece of construction, with all modern conveniences. It is ,in fact, better protected against the effects of flooding than many human houses.

Trees are essential to beavers. They eat the bark on the upper branches. But they must first cut down a tree.

The engineering skill of beavers is to a large extent a result of their ability to use their front paws as hands. A female will carry her young held under her chin(下巴) with her front paws, walking on her hind legs. A similar method is used by all beavers when transporting stones or

mud, although they also carry such materials on their broad flat trails. The fore-paws are also used for digging and for dragging heavier pieces of wood.

28. Which of the following pictures best illustrates the beaver’s lodge?

29. Which of the following sentences is Not the reason why trees are important to beavers?

A. They live on the barks on the upper branches of trees.

B. They use trees’ branches to build dams.

C. They build their lodge with the branches.

D. They us branches to transport mud and stones.

30. The underlined word “fell”.

A. move away B. cut down C. cut up D. move about

A. the beaver’s lodge B. the beaver’s engineering skills

C. the beaver’s dam D. the beaver’s intelligence

Cancer is a terrible disease. Every year in the UK, more than 330,000 people get cancer, and doctors usually use a kind of therapy called radiotherapy to treat people. This treatment uses high energy X-rays to destroy the disease, but the effects of treatment can be nearly as bad as the cancer. As the X-rays destroy the cancer cells, they also damage healthy cells that are next to them. It’s like using a shotgun to kill an insect. When really important parts of a person’s body are hurt by the X-ray energy, it can have very bad results. It can also make more cancer grow in the damaged places in the future.

A new therapy that uses protons(质子) instead of X-ray energy could be the answer to the problem. In a project called PRaVDA, scientists from the UK and South Africa are working to this. If X-ray energy is like a shotgun, then protons can work more like a laser. Scientists can make protons travel through someone’s body without hurting them, and only damage the cancer.

The PRaVDA scientists use computers to make a 3-D model of the cancer cells to make sure the protons go to the right places. “It’s more accurate,” said Michaela Esposito, PhD, from the University of Lincoln.

Building this technology was very difficult, though. Professor Nigel Allinson from the University of Lincoln, the project leader, has put together a team of many different kinds of scientists with different skills. Those skills were all needed to make what he calls “one of the most complex” medical machines ever. It’s also 10 times more expensive than X-ray radiotherapy. Even so, Allinson believes that most cancer treatment will be done by protons in the future. “I think it will improve the quality of life of many cancer patients,” he says.

32. What point does the first paragraph make?

A. Cancer is a really terrible disease.

B. Lots of people get cancer every year in the UK.

C. Radiotherapy isn’t a perfect way to cure cancer.

D. Radiotherapy is a commonly used therapy against cancer.

33. What can be concluded about the new therapy?

A. It’s much cheaper than X-ray radiotherapy.

B. It depends on protons to locate the cancer cells.

C. Damaging the cancer by replacing X-rays with lasers is much more accurate.

D. It uses protons to damage the cancer cells without damaging healthy cells.

A. will enable cancer patients to enjoy a better life

B. will cure most cancers in the future

C. will ensure that cancer patients live longer

D. will replace radiotherapy completely

35. What can be inferred from the text?

A. Science and technology are a double-edged sword.

B. Not every cancer patient will be able to afford proton therapy.

C. Radiotherapy is completely the wrong way to cure cancer.

D. The complex medical machine mentioned will soon be put into use.

In 1916 the United States started the world's first national park system. Since then, it （serve）as a model for other countries that try to better protect the environment and let people enjoy nature.

A national park is a reserve of owned by the government, protected from human development and pollution. Now China is planning its own national parks system. On Dec 5, China passed two pilot plans for national (protect) the giant panda, Siberian tiger and Amur leopard.

But national parks are not only for animals. In mid-2015, China started to build pilot national parks in nine provinces. most famous one is the Sanjiangyuan national park on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It aims to protect China’s water source. Sanjiangyuan, or “Source of Three Rivers”, is the Yellow, Yangtze, and Lancang rivers start.

Before this national park project, China had set and scenic areas as protected areas. However, they haven’t been managed well too many different organizations have been involved in the protection of the different areas, according to the China Daily.Under the new plan, national parks will cover big areas and include different protected areas.

For example, the habitats of wild pandas lie in different provinces and into even smaller pieces by railways, roads and power lines. This makes isolated panda groups more open to The panda national park will cover all the habitats and make the protection of animals as comprehensive as possible.

But this increased protection doesn’t mean national parks will shut their doors to humans. Instead, the new system will offer people a chance to 第四部分写作（共两节，满分35分）

In the village where I grew up , everyone knew an old man, who lived a simply life and spent all his time painting. The villagers used to admiring his works and he often gave his paintings to his friends. Whenever he was offered money, he would not take them. He said he painted for a pleasure. He once gave one of his paintings to my father, whom actually wasn’t interested in art. Years later I found it in our old house. By that time the old man has died and people started to recognize his paintings as great works of art, which was worth lots of money. An art gallery made

me an offer of $5,000 for this painting and I nearly sold it, so then I decided not to. It always

reminds me my childhood and of the old man who didn’t really want to make money by paint.
