They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with Georges family. In turn, Georges son Mike spent a year in Freds home in America.Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months study the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expectedmuch harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities. Family life, too, was different. The fathers word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize（批评） American schools,” he said. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”19.

Then one day, Jim came over for lunch wearing a blue suit with a short brown tie and a green shirt. I couldnt believe this was going to be my new stepfather. It couldnt be true that my beautiful mother would marry someone who dressed like a clown（小丑）. I hated him.Lunch was terrible. Mother kept trying to start a conversation，but neither Jim nor I would say much. Finally I offered to bring in the dessert just to get away from the clown.Something unpleasant happened, but I didnt mean（故意） to do it. I guess the plate slipped. But one minute I was handing Jim his blackberry pie, and the next, dark purple berries were oozing（渗出） all over his shirt and tie.I was mortified. My face turned bright red. Jim looked very much surprised at first，but then he began to laugh. I started to laugh too. Maybe this guy was all right, after all. Then I had a quick look at my mother. She looked happier than I had seen her in a long time.22. The writer thinks Jims clothes look _.A. niceB. expensiveC. usualD. funny23. From the story we might guess that _.A. Jim didnt seem likeable at firstB. the writer liked Jim from the startC. Jim was angry with the writerD. Jim didnt like blackberry pie24.

Mothers Shouldnt MarryDI love my laptop computer as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. But I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices and truly communicate with others.Once, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule no laptops, iPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in the class, some of them were not happy.Most students believe that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. Theres a bit of truth to that. Some students think that I am anti-technology. Theres no truth to that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can teach my students well.The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations and truly exchange ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for outstanding ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently.Ive been teaching my history class in this way for many years and students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom. Im not saying that I wont ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change, Im sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free conversation is just too sweet to give up.26. The writers rule for his History Matters class is _.A. discussing historical ideas deeply B. studying and discussing the materials C. leaving technology out of the classroomD. making right use of technology in class 27. Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with _.A. the course materialB. others misuse of technologyC. the writers class ruleD. discussion topics28.

According to the writer, the use of new technology in the classroom may _.A. help students to better understand historical topicsB. encourage students to have deep conversationsC. keep students from doing independent thinking D. lead students to misuse the technology30. The writer wants to tell us that _.A. technology has different influences in different classes in collegeB. technology makes it difficult to have true communication in classC. history classes can help students to develop their deep thinkingD. it is time for him to give up his teaching method in history class第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）下面文章中有5处（第3135题）需要添加小标题，请从以下选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中选出符合各段意思的小标题。其中一项为多余选项。A. Focus on the future B. To give up is to live a meaningless life C. Life isnt crystal stair D. There is a rainbow after every stormE. What if you win F. Life wont be the same without youThe life has been full of challenges and difficulties. Life is not about the smartest person or the strongest person, or even the richest person. However, life is about having the mind in your heart “Never Give Up”, even when you feel that giving up is the only choice. The world is waiting on your gifts. 31 You are important to this world and believe it or not, someone is waiting for you to enrich their lives. You are too important to the world to just give up. 32 You may feel that life is challenging you from time to time and you cant take it anymore. You may want to give up right now. But here is a thought, what will happen if you overcome the difficulties? 33 When an Olympic runner is in a race, he or she is focusing on one thing - the finishing line. You have to focus on the big picture not just where you are right now. Focus in where you want to be. Make an agreement with your mind and your mouth. 34 One of my favorite poems is called “Crystal Stair” written by Langston Hughes. In that poem, a mother tells her son that life is difficult, you will meet rocks and hard places, but the end is victory to those who stand their ground and ride the course. 35 Whatever you are facing, you can make it through. There is a rainbow on the other side of your situation. Stay strong, stay focused and never give up.三、英语知识运用（共两节，满分25分）第一节 完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后在各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出一个最佳选项。I moved to a new neighborhood two months ago.
