ORRISFlyingHospital C.Fighting Blindness D. Sight-saving TechniquesBAlthough being famous might sound like a dream come true, todays star, feeling like zoo animals, face pressures that few of us can imagine. They are at the center of much of the worlds attention. Paparazzi (狗仔队) camp outside their homes, cameras ready. Tabloids (小报) publish thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature.According to psychologist Christina Villareal, celebrities famous people worry constantly about their public appearance. Eventually, they start to lose track of who they really are, seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them, not as the people they were before everyone knew their names. “Over time,” Villareal says, “they feel separated and alone.”The phenomenon of tracking celebrities has been around for ages. In the 4th century B.C., painters followed Alexander the Great into battle, hoping to picture his victories for his admirers. When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19th century, his sold-out readings attracted thousands of fans, leading him to complain (抱怨) about his lack of privacy. Tabloids of the 1920s and 1930s ran articles about film-stars in much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do.Being a public figure today, however, is a lot more difficult than it used to be. Superstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras. When they say something silly or do something ridiculous, there is always the Internet to spread the news in minutes and keep their “story” alive forever.If fame is so troublesome, why arent all celebrities running away from it? The answer is there are still ways to deal with it. Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big cities. They focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place.Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice. Still, even stars who enjoy full justice often complain about how hard their lives are. They are tired of being famous already.5. It can be learned from the passage that stars today_ .A. are often misunderstood by the public B. care little about how they have come into fameC. spend too much on their public appearance D. can no longer have their privacy protected 6. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?A. The problem faced by celebrities has a long history.B. Great heroes of the past were generally admired.C. Well-known actors are usually targets of tabloids.D. Works of popular writers often have a lot of readers.7. What makes it much harder to be a celebrity today?A. Huge population of fans B. Inadequate social recognition.C. Lack of favorable chances. D. Availability of modern media.8. What is the authors attitude toward modern celebrity?A. Sincere. B. Skeptical. C. Sympathetic. D. Disapproving.CElizabeth Freeman was born about 1742 to African American parents who were slaves. At the age of six months she was acquired, along with her sister, by John Ashley, a ealthyMassachusettsslaveholders. She became known as “Mumbet” or “Mum Bett.”For nearly 30 years Mumbet served the Ashley family. One day, Ashleys wife tried to strike Mumbets sister with a spade. Mumbet protected her sister and took the blow instead. Furious, she left the house and refused to come back. When the Ashleys tried to make her return, Mumbet consulted alawyer, Theodore Sedgewick. Withhishelp, Mumbet sued(起诉) for her freedom.While serving the Ashleys, Mumbet had listened to many discussions of the newMassachusettsconstitution. If the constitution said that all people were free and equal, then she thought it should apply to her. Eventually, Mumbet won her freedom- the first slave inMassachusettsto do so under the new constitution.Strangely enough, after the trial, the Ashleys asked Mumbet to come back and work for them as a paid employee. She declined and instead went to work for Segdewick. Mumbet died in 1829, butherlegacy lived on in hermany descendants(后裔). One of her great-grandchildren was W.E.B. Du Bois, one of the founder of the NAACP, and an important writer and spokesperson for African American civil rights.Mumbets tombstone still stands in theMassachusettscemetery where she was buried. It reads, in part: “She was born a slave and remained a slave and remained a slave for nearly thirty years. She could neitherread nor write, yet in her own sphere she had no superior or equal.”9. What do we know about Mumbet according to Paragraph 1?A.She was a slaveholder B. She was born a slave C. She had a famous sister D. She was born into a rich family10. What did Mumbet learnfromdiscussions about the new constitution ?A. She should always obey her owners orders B. How to apply for a jobC. How to be a good servant D. She should be as free and equal as whites 11. WhatdidMum bet do after the trial?A.She chose to work for a lawyer B. She found the NAACPC. She continued to serve the Ashleys D. She went to live withher grandchildren12. What is the test mainly about?A. A story of a famous writer and spokesperson B. The friendship between alawyerand a slaveC. The life of a brave African Americanwoman D. A trial that shocked the whole world DCommon phrases like “ no pains, no gains” give the impression that we ought to be suffering while we study. Its almost as though the only way to know if were putting in enough work is the sense of hardship we bear.When we havent taken the time to come up with another idea, all we know how to do is shut ourselves in a room with a book. Its no surprise that we find revision boring and difficult. Just as children learn from playing, we can learn from doing, or at least from study techniques that interest us, rather than make us switch off.Shutting yourself away can make you learn to hate studying. This leads to a situation where instead of being able to concentrate on your work, you are troubled by how unfair it is that you must study.When you hate your work its very difficult to make yourself star, or approach it with any kind of structure or enthusiasm. This can be part of a vicious cycle(恶性循环) that traps you into ineffective revision, your poor progress fuelling further annoyance.Just being around other people really helps fight against feelings of loneliness and, thankfully, its perfectly possible to work in the company of other people. We just need to learn how to deal with distractions(使人分心的事).Its not necessary to avoid all company, just idle(懒散的) company. Studying in the same room as someone who is ironing or working out is perfectly possible. People who are bored and looking to be distracted, however, are terrible to work around. They constantly try to keep others in conversation.Its also a good idea to avoid the company of people involved in activities that you would rather be doing than studying.Working while sitting next to someone playing video games is much more likely to end with a new high score than a productive few hours of revision.If being around others means working in a noisy environment, a pair of headphones and some background music can block out even noisy children. They also act as a psychological barrier, so that people think twice before interrupting you.When youre studying for a big exam, it seems like your whole life is taken up with study. Friends and family can lessen feelings of isolation(孤立). And connecting with other people makes us happy, so its important not to give that up and to make sure that we take the time to socialize.13.The author might believe that the phrase “no pains, no gains” _.A. best describes how to study well B. makes people treat study as a habitC. encourages people to learn step by step D. is not a good inspirational phrase for study14.Which might lead to an effective study based on this text?A. A correct goal.B. A good teacher. C. A favorable interest.D. A hard task.15.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 7 implies that _.A. playing video games is helpful for an effective studyB. one shouldnt let a video player to be his / her company while studyingC. one should study from certain activities that he / she is interested inD. the more time one spends in playing games, the higher marks he / she will get第二节（共5题；每小题2分，满分10分）How to Sleep BetterIf youre having trouble getting good sleep through the night (turning, waking up more than once, for example), this text will tell you what you can do to ensure a peaceful nights sleep.Get on schedule. Changing your sleeping time by more than an hour can severely disturb your sleep quality 16 For example, if you normally wake up at6 a.m. on weekdays to get to work, you might go to bed around 10 p.m., because thats when you start to feel sleepy, and its also a good time to ensure 8 hours of sleep. If, on the weekend, you sleep until9 a.m., you probably wont be able to fall asleep that night until1a.m.17 Wait at least three hours after dinner before going to sleep. Digestion slows down while asleep, and a full stomach may interrupt sleep. Similarly, you should avoid going to bed on an empty stomach, as a completely empty stomach may equally disturb your sleeping patterns.18 Exposure to light during the time when youre supposed to be sleeping can disturb your bodys internal clock. Turn your light off, or use averydim night light, 19 They include windows, LED clocks,computerlights and cable boxes.Change your sleeping position. Youmaythinkthat its impossible to control what position you sleep in since you arent fully aware of what you are doing, but it is possible and it can make a considerable difference. 20 A.Try to avoid all sources oflight.B.Keep the room as dark as possible.C.Make notes of unusual circumstances.D.Be mindful of what youeator drink before bed.E.Sleep is considered to be adequateonlywhen there is nodaytime sleepiness.F.In other words, sudden change sleeping time will affect your “biological clock”.G.If you wake up in the middle of the night, make an effort to have a comfortable posit第二部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）I used to be a very self-centered person, but in the past two years I have really changed.
