More than half a million students __26__(ask) to sit a two-hour exam last year. They were aged 15 and 16 and from 65 different countries and regions.
In all three subjects, students from Shanghai did __27__(well) than __28__ from other places. Their scores suggested that they __29__(have) at least one more year of schooling than

Singapore came in second, __30__ Hong Kong took third place. Taiwan ranked fourth, followed by South Korea. The UK took the 26th spot, with the US __31__(earn) 36th.

(B)
Bullying(欺负人) is a big problem that affects lots of kids. Three-quarters of all kids say they have been bullied. But why do Bullies(恶少) act that way?
Some bullies are looking for attention. They __33__ think bullying is a way to be popular or to get what they want. Most bullies are trying __34__(make) themselves feel more important. __35__ they pick on someone else, it can make them feel big and powerful.
Some bullies come from families __36__ everyone is angry and shouting all the time. They may think that being angry, calling names, and pushing people around is a normal way to act. Some bullies are copying what they've seen someone else __37__(do). Some have been bullied themselves.

Section B
Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be
Spanish flu which killed millions worldwide.
Estimates say the outbreak __42__ 50 million lives, more than the First World War. Unlike most bird flu, it was fatal among young, healthy people.
A Canadian lab __43__ the Spanish flu virus from human __44__ preserved in the Alaskan permafrost(永冻) and infected monkeys. Their findings were reported in the journal Nature, and should give a better __45__ of how the virus killed humans than earlier work with infected mice.
It turns out that the H1N1 Spanish flu virus killed 50 million by over-stimulating their immune system(免疫系统), causing the lungs to inflame(发炎) and rapidly fill with liquid. Lead author Professor Yoshihiro of the University of Wisconsin said: "__46__ people are drowned by themselves."
So a young, healthy person with a young, healthy immune system would be a mature __47__ for the 1918 outbreak. Co-author Michael Katze said: "It was the vigor of the immune system that helped victimize them."
The researchers write that symptoms of the disease appeared within 24 hours of the
monkeys' __48__ to Spanish flu. They became so ill that they were euthanized(安乐死) after only 8 days of a scheduled 21 day trial.
The type of immune response the virus caused is __49__ as a "cytokine storm". Cytokines(细胞因子) are the protein messengers released by cells which adjust the immune system.

Ⅲ. Reading:
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B,
C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
In the increasingly competitive service sector, it is __51__ enough to promise customer satisfaction. Today, customer “delight” is the stated aim for companies battling to retain(保留) and increase market __52__.
It is accepted and confirmed in the marketing industry that customer receiving good service will stimulate new business by telling up to 12 other people; those treated badly will tell their tales to up to 20 people. Interestingly, 80 percent of people who feel their complaints are handled fairly will stay __53__.
New __54__ for customer care have come with the rapid growth in obtaining goods and services via telephone call centers and the internet. Avoiding “phone rage”, tempted by delays in answering calls, being cut off in mid-conversation or left waiting for long period, has been handled by vast __55__ in information technology and training courses.
Recommended ways of encouraging customer delight include: under-promising and over-delivering, replacing a __56__ product immediately, throwing in a gift voucher(礼品券) as an unexpected thank you to regular customer, and always returning calls, even when they are __57__.
Aiming for customer __58__ is all very well, but if services do not reach the high level promised, __59__ or worse will be the result. This can be eased by __60__ an apology and explanation of why the service did not meet usual standards with empathy ("I know how you must feel") and possible solutions.
Airlines face some of the toughest challenges over customer care. Fierce competition has __61__ them that delighting passengers is an essential marketing tool, while there is great potential for customer anger over delays caused by weather, __62__ luggage and technical problems.
For British Airways staff, a winning telephone style is considered vital in handling the numerous calls about bookings and flight times. They are trained to answer quickly, with their name, job __63__ and a "we are here to help" attitude. The company has invested heavily in information technology to ensure information is available __64__ on screen.
Customer care is obviously here to stay and it would be a __65__ company that used slogans such as “we do as we please and are answerable only to ourselves”. On the other hand, the more customers are promised, the greater the risk of disappointment.

(A)
When I was a chaplain intern(实习牧师) at UCLA Medical Center, I entered the lives of strangers at the worst possible moments. In those dark hours, when a patient was dying, I would show up, a stranger, an unfamiliar face and voice and touch. In the beginning, I dreaded those visits, viewing myself as a poor substitute for the comforting intimacy(亲密) of family and friends. I felt helpless to help.
Then I learned an important spiritual lesson from one of those strangers and never looked at life the same way again. She was dying of kidney failure, and her only hope was a transplant. Every day, 18 people in this country die waiting for an organ donation. I waited with her, and prayed with her, and finally said with a sigh, “I wish I could do something more than this.”
“You can,” she said. “You can do so much more.”
At her deathbed, I made a promise that I would be a living kidney(肾) donor, as soon as time and circumstances would permit.
Over a decade later, when my children were grown,back to UCLA and offered my kidney to whoever needed it the most. “A stranger?” people said to me. “You would do this for a stranger?” I never understood why the same act made sense if it helped someone I knew but was shocking if it helped someone I’d never met.
“What do you know about this person who is getting your kidney?” people asked.
“That he will die without it,” I answered. It was all I needed to know.
On November 5, 2010, my kidney flew on its first trip without me, nestled in the pilot’s cabin, front row seat, on its own journey. I spent less than 24 hours in the hospital, and the after-pain was sweetly familiar; it was the same pain I’d felt after my children were born by cesarean(剖腹产). My kidney was taken through that faded scar, once again granting me the privilege of giving life, in my late 50s!
I met the man who got my kidney many months later, on a bright, sunny California day when

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、和D项中选出最佳选项，并在答题卷上将对应的该项涂黑。
A
Having spent two and a half years in China over several visits, I don‟t remember ever going through a phase we in the United States call “cultural shock”. This period of difficulty in adjusting to a new culture would probably have set in during my semester at Peking University. Of course, this is not to say that I didn‟t notice any differences between the American and Chinese cultures upon my arrival at Peking University, I did notice the differences. Looking back, I remember one of the first differences I noticed: Chinese universities are surrounded by walls.
To an American, this is one of the most striking aspects of a Chinese university which immediately sets it apart from an American campus. Having grown up in the United States, I had never seen a university surrounded by high, cement(水泥) walls. My idea of a university, based on having seen scores of them in different states of the U.S., was a place of life and learning, an inseparable part of the community in which it was located, open not only to the students of the school itself, but also fully accessible to students from other schools and to the broader public. My idea of a university was that it was a center of cultural life, a resource for the entire community. In all my twenty-one years, it had never occurred to me that a school would have a wall around it. Walls enclose and separate; schools expand and integrate(合并). I asked a Chinese friend if all Chinese universities have walls around them. “You know, I have never really thought about it. I guess so. I guess all Chinese schools have walls around them, not just universities.” “Why?” I asked, “What‟s the point?” “I don‟t know. To protect us, I suppose.” “From whom?” “I don‟t know. Don‟t you have walls around your schools in the United States?” I thought carefully before answering. “No, I‟ve never seen or heard of a university encircled by a wall.” My Chinese friend seemed puzzled. Walls around schools came to strike me as more than just an architectural difference between the United States and China. As China continues to open up to the outside world, these walls seem increasingly out of place.
26. The author felt strange about Chinese culture when he ___________.
A. studied in Peking University B. talked with his friends about the walls
C. experienced the “cultural shock” at his arrival
D. spent two and a half years in China over several visits
27. In the author‟s opinion, a university is a place ___________.
A. where only students can come to study B. which is similar everywhere in the world
C. that should be surrounded by high cement walls
D. that is an inseparable part of and a resource for the community
28. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. The two ideas are fundamental. B. The two ideas are basically different.
C. The two ideas about “school” and “wall” are suitable.
D. The two ideas about “school” and “wall” are conflicting.
29. What did the author‟s friend feel about the walls around universities?
A. He thought it a good idea to have walls encircling schools.
B. He was shocked that American universities are not enclosed.
C. He thought they were necessary to protect students from being hurt.
D. He thought the difference between two countries is only architectural styles.
30. We can infer from the passage that the author thinks _____________.
A. walls are really useful in the universities
B. he can never really understand the Chinese culture
C. Chinese universities should work as public scenic spots
D. walls around the universities are inappropriate in an open China
B
A black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light cannot get out. The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying.
Because no light can get out, people can‟t see black holes. Space telescopes with special tools can help find black holes. The special tools can see how stars that are very close to black holes act differently from other ones.
Black holes can be big or small. Scientists think the smallest black holes are as small as just one atom. These black holes are very tiny but have the mass of a large mountain. Mass is the amount of matter, or “staff”, in an object.
Another kind of black hole is called “stellar”(星球黑洞). Its mass can be up to 20 times more than the mass of the sun. There may be many stellar mass black holes in Earth‟s galaxy. Earth‟s galaxy is called the Milky Way.
The largest black holes are called “supermassive”(超大质量黑洞). These black holes have masses that are more than one million suns together. Scientists have found proof that every large of the Milky Way galaxy has a mass equal to about four million suns and would fit inside a very large ball that could hold a few million Earths.
Scientists think the smallest black holes formed when the universe began. Stellar black holes
are made when the center of a very big star falls in upon itself, or falls apart. When this happens, it exploded part of the star into space. Scientists think supermassive black holes were made at the same time as the galaxy they are in.
A black hole can not be seen because strong gravity pulls all of the light into the middle of the black hole. But scientists can see how the strong gravity affects the stars and gas around the black hole. Scientists can study stars to find out if they are flying around, or orbiting a black hole.
When a black hole and a star are close together, high-energy light is made. This kind of light cannot be seen with human eyes. Scientists use satellites and telescopes in space to see the high-energy light.
31. The gravity of a black hole may become so strong that light cannot get out when ____________.
A. the star is going to die B. special tools are used on it
C. other stars come close to it D. it is seen from the space telescopes
32. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. A black hole can be very tiny but extremely heavy.
B. The gravity of a black hole holds all light in its center.
C. Scientists observe high-energy light through their own eyes.
D. Some small black holes came into being as early as the universe.
33. The underlined word “galaxy” in Paragraph 5 means __________.
A. a black hole B. the Milky Way
C. a series of stars D. a planet near the earth
34. What does the last sentence in Paragraph 5 suggest?
A. Neither the sun nor the earth is as heavy as a black hole.
B. There is a supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.
C. The supermassive black hole had existed before the Milky Way was formed.
D. There is a reason why the large black holes are called “supermassive”.
35. The last two paragraph mainly focus on the question of _________.
A. what a black hole is B. how black holes form
C. how big black holes are D. how scientists know about black holes
C
The computer keyboard helped kill shorthand—a system of rapid handwriting, and now it‟s threatening to finish off handwriting as a whole. When handwritten essays were introduced on the SAT exams for the class of 2012, just 15% of the most1.5 million students wrote their answers in cursive(草写字母). The rest? Block letters.

Ever since they were first put on the market in the early 1990s, genetically modified (GM, 转基因) foods have been increasingly developed and marketed in many countries in the word, mainly on the basis of their promise to end the worldwide food __41__. But can GM technology solve world hunger problems? Even if it would, is it the best solution?
Despite what it promises, GM technology actually has not increased the production potential of any crop. In fact, studies show that the most widely grown GM crop, GM soybeans, has suffered __42__ productivity. For instance, a report that analyzed nearly two decades of research on major GM food crops shows that GM engineering has failed to significantly increase US crop production.
Something else, however, has been on the rise. While GM seeds are __43__, GM companies tell farmers that they will make good profits by saving money on pesticides (杀虫剂). On the contrary, US government data show that GM crops in the US have produced an overall increase in pesticide use __44__ to traditional crops. “The promise was that you could use less chemicals and __45__ production. But neither is true,” said Bill Christison, President of the US National Farm Coalition.
At the same time, the authors of the book World Hunger: Twelve Myths argue that there actually is more than enough food in the world and that the hunger crisis is not caused by production, but by problems in food distribution and __46__. These indeed __47__ our efforts and money. Meanwhile, the rise in food prices results from the increased use of crops for fuel rather than food, according to a World Bank report.
As a matter of fact, scientists see better ways to __48__ the world. Another World Bank report concluded that GM crops have little to offer to the challenges of worldwide poverty and hunger, because better ways out are __49 __, among which “green” farming is supposed to be the first choice.

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B,
C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I __50__ and what you do?
Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the __51__. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for __52__. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except__53__ . Both feel trapped.
In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly __54__ between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over __55__ things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the __56__ style of clothing, the child’s __57__ to eat a good breakfast before school, or his __58__ to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, __59__. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be __60__. It doesn’t matter what the __61__ is —politics, the laws of physics ,or the proper way to break an egg —the point of these __62__ is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an __63__—someone who actually knows something — and therefore to command__64__. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.

第二部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2.5分，满分50分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Even if you are naturally shy, these three tricks will help you to quickly build a new social circle in any new city. 1. Take pictures
One of the great things about taking pictures at an event or party is that it gives you an excuse to get in touch with the person later. Everybody loves seeing pictures of themselves, and it’s very easy after taking a picture to say “If you’d like I can email it to you”. This can be the seed that leads to new connections. The next time you hear about a fun event email your new contacts to let them know about it. 2. Eat alone in public
You might feel self-conscious eating by yourself but it has an important benefit: you are much easier to approach when you are alone. People may be afraid of interrupting you or being rude if you are in a conversation with someone else. Bring a book or newspaper to read (this will make you feel less self-conscious). Plus, having an interesting book with you will give others an excuse to start a conversation if they’ve read it. 3. Join a class, sports team, or club
Yoga, salsa dancing, volleyball, Toastmasters (a public speaking club), a class for work, etc. Take up a new hobby or continue an old one!
These are all great places to meet new people, primarily because you will be forced to see the same people over and over again in the class. You will automatically make friends with them if you have a common interest and are forced to see each other again. Tips:
* In the beginning, never turn down an invitation from someone, even if it’s something you wouldn’t normally do.
* Email your new friends with fun things to do instead of always asking what their plans are. If they have a better plan you can drop yours and join them. This will help establish you as someone who is contributing value instead of just taking it (people want this in a friend).
* Don’t let little things in life upset you or be a negative person. People don’t want to be around someone like that!
36. ________ can give you an excuse to start new connections.
A. Taking pictures of others
B. Eating by yourself in public C. Reading interesting books D. Joining group activities
37. When having meals, you’d better ________ if you want to make new friends.
A. approach others to show conscious friendliness B. start a conversation with those who have friends aside C. invite others to your apartment to eat together D. sit on your own in public places
38. According to the text, which of the following is NOT mentioned as an advantage of joining a class?
A. It helps you find out people who share a common interest with you. B. It helps you find out your interest and take up a new hobby. C. It offers an opportunity to meet the same people repeatedly. D. It is a good way to meet new people and make friends in a new city. 39. Which of the following pieces of advice is a tip from the text?
A. Try to be outgoing and talkative instead of being shy. B. Never turn down an invitation from your friends. C. Offer suggestions on how to spend time together. D. Always give a positive response to any request. 40. By writing the text, the author intends to tell us ________.
A. why you should change when you move to a new city B. how you can make new friends in a new city C. why you should make new friends in a new city D. how you can keep in touch with strangers
B
When I was 13, my bedroom walls were covered with posters of the Monkees and Beatles. I wrote fan letters and daydreamed about meeting the objects of my affections. I begged my parents to attend every rock concert and watch every TV show featuring my favorite celebrities; my friends and I discussed for hours all the things we would say and do when we met our favourite movie stars and pop singers. I drove my mother crazy ! But after a few years, my obsession stars faded as I matured and gained the confidence to socialize with “real” boys.
In the 35 years since I was a teenager, celebrity worship (崇拜) has increased among teens due to

Ever since they were first put on the market in the early 1990s, genetically modified (GM, 转基因) foods have been increasingly developed and marketed in many countries in the word, mainly on the basis of their promise to end the worldwide food __41__. But can GM technology solve world hunger problems? Even if it would, is it the best solution?
Despite what it promises, GM technology actually has not increased the production potential of any crop. In fact, studies show that the most widely grown GM crop, GM soybeans, has suffered __42__ productivity. For instance, a report that analyzed nearly two decades of research on major GM food crops shows that GM engineering has failed to significantly increase US crop production.
Something else, however, has been on the rise. While GM seeds are __43__, GM companies tell farmers that they will make good profits by saving money on pesticides（杀虫剂）. On the contrary, US government data show that GM crops in the US have produced an overall increase in pesticide use __44__ to traditional crops. “The promise was that you could use less chemicals and __45__ production. But neither is true,” said Bill Christison, President of the US National Farm Coalition.
At the same time, the authors of the book World Hunger: Twelve Myths argue that there actually is more than enough food in the world and that the hunger crisis is not caused by production, but by problems in food distribution and __46__. These indeed __47__ our efforts and money. Meanwhile, the rise in food prices results from the increased use of crops for fuel rather than food, according to a World Bank report.
As a matter of fact, scientists see better ways to __48__ the world. Another World Bank report concluded that GM crops have little to offer to the challenges of worldwide poverty and hunger, because better ways out are __49 __, among which “green” farming is supposed to be the first choice.
III. Reading Comprehension Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I __50__ and what you do?
Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the __51__. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for __52__. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except__53__ . Both feel trapped.
In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly __54__ between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over __55__ things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the __56__ style of clothing, the child’s __57__ to eat a good breakfast before school, or his __58__ to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, __59__. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be __60__. It doesn’t matter what the __61__ is —politics, the laws of physics ,or the proper way to break an egg —the point of these __62__ is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an __63__—someone who actually knows something — and therefore to command__64__. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.

In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition．Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity．Others say that competition is bad, that it sets one person against another, that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people．
I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills．For them, playing well and winning are often, life-and-death affairs．In their single-minded pursuit of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten．
However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude．In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition．competitive pressures from their parents or society．Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail．They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success．By not trying, they always have an excuse: "I may have lost, but it doesn't matter because I really didn't try．"What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot．Such a loss would be a measure of their worth． Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves．Both are based on the mistaken belief that one's self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others．Both are afraid of not being valued．Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve （缓解）
