In the world today, all of the people need recreation (消遣). We cannot work all the time if we are going to keep healthy and enjoy life.

Everyone has his own way of relaxing. Perhaps the most popular form is to take part in sports. There are team sports, such as basketball and football. There are also individual sports, such as swimming and running. Skating and mountain climbing are the most popular recreation for people who like to be outdoor.

Not everyone who enjoys sports likes to take part in them. Many people like watching them on TV or listening to them on the radio. So many people like some forms of indoor recreation, such as watching TV, singing and dancing.

It doesn’t matter whether we like indoor recreation or take part in outdoor sports. It is important for everyone to relax from time to time, and enjoy some forms of recreation.

D. indoor recreation is not as important as outdoor sports

C

It was a comfortable sunny Sunday. I was going to meet an old university friend I hadn't seen for years, and was really excited.
My train was running a little late, but that was no big problem - I could text him to say I would be delayed. He would understand. But… where was my mobile phone? I had that familiar sinking feeling. Yes, I'd left it at home.
No mobile phone. I'm sure I'm not alone in feeling anxious, on edge and worried when I don't have my phone with me. In fact, I know I'm not alone: two-thirds of us experience ‘nomophobia’ (无手机恐惧症), the fear of being out of mobile phone contact.
That's according to a study from 2012 which surveyed 1,000 people in the UK about their relationship with mobile phones.

It says we check our mobile phones 34 times a day, and that 18-24 year-olds, especially girls, are the most likely to suffer fear of being without their mobiles: 77% of them say they are unable to be apart from their phones for more than a few minutes.
Do you have nomophobia ?
• You never turn your phone off
• You frequently(频繁地) check for texts, missed calls and emails

• You always take your phone to the bathroom with you

• You never let the battery run out
  It's funny to think that around 20 years ago the only people with mobile phones would be businessmen carrying their large, plastic ‘bricks’. Of course, these days, mobile phones are everywhere. A UN study from this year said there would be more mobile phones than people across the world by the end of 2020.
And when there are more phones than people in the world, maybe it's time to ask who really is in charge(主管)? Are you in control of your phone, or does your phone control you?
So, what happened with my university friend? When I arrived a few minutes late he just laughed and said:"You haven't changed at all – still always late!" And we had a great afternoon catching up, full of jokes and stories, with no desire(欲望) to check my phone.

Not having it with me felt strangely free. Maybe I'll leave it at home on purpose next time.
31. What does the passage talk about?
A. The history of mobile phones.
B. The story of meeting an old university friend.
C. The attraction of playing mobile phone.
D. The terrible feeling of being without their mobiles.
32. The underlined phrase “on edge” the third paragraph probably means __________.
A. energetic              B. nervous             C. brilliantD. amazed
33. Which word is used to describe old mobile phones according to the passage?
A. digital phone     B. cell phone    C. bricksD. smart phone
34. According to the passage, who is most likely to be addicted(上瘾的) to mobiles?
A. a successful manager      B. a 21-year-old girl 
C. a 21-year-old boy            D. a lonely middle-aged person
35. What’s the author’s attitude towards the using mobiles?
A. Worried   B. Positive     C. Neutral (中立的)   D. Negative

第二节七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)

Handwriting can make the first impression. If your handwriting is difficult for others to read, you will sometimes feel embarrassed.  36  . It needs lots of practice to improve your handwriting.
 37. Try each of them out on a piece of paper by signing your name. Find out which type of pen you can write best with. You may be amazed at the change in your handwriting just by changing to another pen.
 38  . Do not just do what feels comfortable, because that is just your old bad habit coming back into play. Try to hold the pen lightly and don’t press too hard.
Use your chosen pen to write Os on some pieces of lined paper. Write until you have filled up all the lines. Be careful with each O that you write.   39   . Practice writing Os as much as possible. Remember: practice makes perfect. You may practice for weeks or months if you need to.   40 .
As your handwriting shows signs of improvement, go ahead and keep on practicing by writing more words.
A. Get different types of pens.
B. Practice holding your pen in different ways.
C. However, a bad writing habit is hard to break.
D. Choose a type of pen with which you like best.
E. It won’t help if you write a lot of careless Os on the paper.

“But we worked so 53. What about our dream?” He reached over for my hand and said, “Don't you know that you are my dream and it has come true?”

It wasn't long before my running shoes were back on, marking a 54 path for my journey, I learned that all of the miles, the tears, the sweat, and the pain my dad and I experienced together were not just for a 55. I realized, to him, I was the greatest prize he had ever won.

Dear Li Kang,

It’s almost three months since I left you. How I miss you! Now, I want to tell you what I have seen and how I'm feeling at Nanshan Senior High.

Nanshan Senior High , which lies in the south of Mianyang City, is a state key school with a history of more than one hundred years. Its environment is pretty quiet and beautiful and first-class facilities afford us a good chance to work hard. I'm very satisfied with the teachers as well. As far as I know, not only are they patient with the students, but also strict in studies. They are well received by(are popular with) the students.

资*源%库As for my studies, I'd like to choose science subjects. On one hand, I'm interested in science and have made great progress. On the other hand, science subjects challenge my potentials and I will have a promising future.

How is everything with you these days? I hope that you are not too tired and do care about yourself.

I’m looking forward to receiving your early reply.

Love, Li Hua

Good morning everybody. My topic for today is “Early Money”. I’ m going to tell you something

about money used in the early days. To be honest, we know little about how early people came to

use money, but we do know some of the things that have been used as money. In early times in

some European countries, salt was difficult to get. It was used as money. In some parts of Asia, tea

was used for money. The American Indians used nuts and other things. Perhaps the most common

money of all was an animal of some kind. In some places today, cows are still used as a kind of

money. So you see, things highly valued by everybody may serve as money. The Chinese were the

资*源%库 first people to use coins as money. Oh, sorry, you don’t know the word well.
