A
The effects of coffee consumption on health have long been a subject of conflict and uncertainty.Since the 1980s,some have spoken out against coffee as harmful to health,while others have welcomed coffee for its supposed benefits to health.
According to a scientific report,mild coffee consumption,three to five cups per day,can he taken as a healthy dietary pattern,along with other healthful behaviors.The report also says that coffee consumption helps reduce the risk of heart disease and it protects against Parkinson's disease.
According to Dr.Donald Hensrud of Mayo Clinic,high consumption of coffee has health risks.Dr.Hensrud mentions the dangers of high coffee consumption for people with a certain illness that slows the breakdown of caffeine in the body.Some studies said that drinking two or more cups of coffee daily can actually increase the risk of heart disease in these people.
According to conclusions from a recent study led by Dr.Gregory Marcus,a doctor from the University of California San Francisco,daily moderate consumption of caffeine,less than 4 cups,is not associated with these issues.
Until the scientific community reaches a general agreement on the effects of coffee consumption on human health,it will be up to the individual to decide whether the benefits of drinking coffee are greater than the risks.
When informed of these possible health benefits and harms of drinking coffee,Harwood,a high school student stated,"Even though there might be some negative effects of drinking coffee,for the most part,coffee drinking sounds good for health.Not to mention I need coffee to stay awake."
1、What is the people's attitude towards the effects of coffee on health according to Paragraph 1?
A．Disapproving. B．Tolerant.
C．Doubtful. D．Mixed.
2、What does the underlined word "moderate" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A．Personal. B．Slight.
C．Reasonable. D．Heavy.
3、What can we infer about Harwood?
A．He'll keep on drinking coffee. B．He loves his high school life.
C．He often falls asleep in class. D．He has some health problems.
4、What would be the best title for the text?
A．Why People Love Coffee? B．How Coffee Affects Health?
C．The Culture of Coffee Drinking D．The New Findings of Heart Disease

B
The English have a difficult and, generally speaking, dysfunctional (怪异的) relationship with clothes. Their main problem is that they have a desperate need for rules, and are unable to get along without them. This helps to explain why they have an international reputation for dressing in general very badly, but with specific areas of excellence, such as high-class men’s suits, ceremonial costumes, and innovative (革新的) street fashion. In other words, we English dress best when we are “in uniform”.
You may be surprised that I am including “innovative street fashion” in the category of the uniform. Surely the parrot-haired punks (朋克摇滚乐迷) or the Victorian vampire goths are being original, not following rules? It’s true that they all look different and eccentric (古怪的) but in fact they all look eccentric exactly in the same way. They are wearing a uniform. The only truly eccentric dresser in this country is the Queen, who pays no attention to fashion and continues to wear what she likes, a kind of 1950s fashion, with no regard for anyone else’s opinion. However, it is true that the styles invented by young English people are much more eccentric than any other nation’s street fashion. We may not be individually eccentric, apart from the Queen, but we have a sort of collective eccentricity, and \ye appreciate originality in dress even if we do not individually have it.
Another “rule” of behavior I had discovered was that it is very important for the English not to take themselves too seriously, to be able to laugh at themselves. However, it is well known that most teenagers tend to take themselves a bit too seriously.
The goths, in their scary black costumes, certainly look as if they are taking themselves seriously. But when I got into conversation with them, I discovered that they too had a sense of humor. I was once chatting to a goth in the full vampire costume—with a white face, deep purple lipstick, and black parrot-hair. I saw he was also wearing a T-shirt with “Goth”. “Why are you wearing that?” I asked. “In case you don’t realize I’m a goth.” he answered, pretending to be serious. We both burst out laughing.
1、What can we know about the English people?
A．They need rules to dress well. B．They are in need of uniforms.
C．They are creative in general. D．They lead the world trend.
2、Who is individually eccentric in dressing?
A．A high-class man. B．A parrot-haired punk.
C．The Queen. D．The fashion innovator.
3、Which of the following can best describe the goths?
A．They dress badly.
B．They dress in an amusing way.
C．They are unable to laugh at the way they dress.
D．They are less fashionable than the other English people.
4、What may be the best title for the text?
A．How the English Dress
B．How the English Admire Fashion
C．Why the English Like Uniforms
D．Why the English Are Eccentric in Dress

第二节（每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Research clearly shows that young children are able to become fluent in more than one language at the same time，if there is rich input in each language In this context，it is 1．(good) to start as young as possible
Learning in language classes at school is 2． (complete) different The normal pattern of these classes is to have one or more hourly 3． (lesson) per week To succeed in learning with such little input 4．(require) meta-cognitive(元认知) skills that do not usually develop 5． a young age For this style of language learning, the later years of primary school is 6． ideal time to start
What does this tell us about when we should start teaching second languages to children? In terms of the 7． (develop) of language proficiency，the message is fairly clear
If we are able to provide lots of exposure to rich language use, early childhood is better 8． the only opportunity for second language learning is through more traditional language classes, then late primary school is likely to be just as good as early childhood
However, if language learning relies on 9． (be) self-directed, it is more likely to be 10． (success) after the learner has reached adulthood

Last week, our class held a class meeting to celebrate World Animal Day. At first, we made preparations to the activity. Several students design a blackboard poster but some decorated the classroom. The meeting began with few interesting games. Then, a sad song about animals sang by two girls touched us deep. Four other students performed a play, showing us how terrible the situation of endangered animals were. Finally, our monitor gave us a speech, that made us aware of the importance of protecting animal.
The activity is meaningful because of we now realize that human beings should live in harmony with animals.
