"Have you gotten married?" "Have you received a salary raise??""Have you bought a house???"

Are you familiar with these questions starting with "have you" and ending in at least one question mark?

If your answer is yes and you are getting sick of answering these questions, you probably have become a member of the "home-fear group".

The "home-fear group" refers to ____1____ feeling anxious about returning home during the Spring Festival. They have deep concerns about going back home for such factors as heavy economic pressure, high costs of the festival, the troubles of buying tickets, the long distance of the journey and exposure of private matters ____2____(involve) family or love life.

Now, a special song has been tailor-made for this group.

The seven-minute song utilizes a choir style and rap. The beginning of the song ____3____(sing) by the choir, which involves a family scene ____4____ a recently returned young adult is asked a series of questions by family members. After the "question attack" from relatives, the young man decides to reflect ____5____ his past and also defend himself through rap.

According to the official weibo account of Shanghai Rainbow Indoor Chorus, this is more than just a funny song, but a useful guide for young people. A careful listen to some of the lyrics will inspire you on ____6____ to wisely answer many ’Spring Festival-specific’ questions.

"It is a very interesting yet brainwashing song, truly describing the ____7____(satisfactory) situation quite a few young Chinese people have been trapped in," Sina Weibo user Santilin Clouds said.

According to a survey recently conducted among 1,918 young people by the research center at China Youth Daily, an overwhelming 86.4 percent of interviewees think it is necessary ____8____(return) to their homeland during the Spring Festival, ____9____ ________ they are afraid of losing face for an average life or career.

“Indeed, we ____10____ not be that good but we will work hard in the future. That’s enough! After all, the essence of spending the Spring Festival is reunion not compression,” the song echoes the theme at the ending.

Section B

Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Food prices are soaring to record levels, threatening many developing countries with mass hunger and political instability(不稳定). Finance ministers of the Group of 20 leading economies discussed the problem at a meeting in Paris last week, but for all of their ____1____ concern, most are already breaking their promises to help. After the last ____2____ price increase in 2008, the G-20 promised to invest $22 billion over three years to help poor countries boost food production. To date, the World Bank fund that is supposed to administer this money has received less than $400 million.

Food prices are now higher than their 2008 peak, driven by rising ____3____ in developing countries and unstable weather, including drought in Russia and Ukraine and a dry spell in North China that threatens the crop of the world's largest wheat producer. The World Bank says the increase has pushed 44 million people into extreme poverty just since June.

In 2008, 30 countries had food riots(暴动). That has not happened, at least not yet. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, warns that Mozambique, Uganda, Mali, Niger and Somalia are extremely vulnerable to ____4____ because of rising prices, along with Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan in Asia, and Haiti, Guatemala, Bolivia and Honduras in Latin America.

____5____ government policies could make matters worse. Some countries are stockpiling food according to the policies. When India did that last year, food ended up rotting in storages. Others are ____6____ agricultural export bans, which discourages investment in production. The world's wealthier nations must press them to rethink these polices and back that up with real help.

The Obama administration has proposed worthy ____7____, but even when Democrats controlled Congress it had a hard time getting the money. The administration promised $3.5 billion to the G-20 effort. So far, it has ____8____ only $66.6 million to the World Bank fund. It is now asking for $408 million for the fund - part of a $1.64 billion request for its Feed the Future initiative, which ____9____ to strengthen poor countries' food production capabilities. However, the continuing resolution passed by the House now cuts $800 million out of the food aid budget - bringing it down to about $1billion, roughly where it was in 2001.

The White House needs to push back hard. This isn't a question of ____10____. It is an issue of life or death for millions of people. And the hard truth is that if the United States doesn't keep its word, no one else will.

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.

The people of the Makah Nation have lived on Washington Stare's Olympic Peninsula for thousands of years. They call themselves Kwi-dich-cha-at,which ____1____ “people who live by the rocks and seagulls." The shorter name of Makah, bestowed on them by neighboring Native American peoples, means "generous with food".

Before the white settlers arrived in the American Northwest, the Makah hunted gray and humpback whales from canoes made from the western red cedar tree. Whales ____2____ meat, blubber, and bone for food, oil, and utensils.

The Makah enjoyed a lively trade in whale products with other Native Americans and later with an intensity and efficiency that quickly ____3____ the numbers of these creatures. The Makah relationship to the whales, on the other hand, was as much ____4____ as material. Whales and whaling were ____5____ in their songs and dances. Images of whales were ____6____ into blankets and baskets and carved in stone and wood. By the 1920s, with local whales on the brink of ____7____, the Makah stopped hunting them altogether.

Through ____8____ conservation measures, whales returned to the waters off the Olympic Peninsula soon. In the 1970s, archeologists discovered many objects that confirmed the long and significant relationship between the Makah and whales. This awareness ____9____ a cultural resurgence(复兴) that included a focus on traditional foods and the health problems some linked to changes in the Makah diet, particularly the ____10____ from it of sea mammal meat.

Eventually, the Makah decided to resume hunting whales. Although their plans faced strong opposition from different groups, they cited an 1885 treaty signed with the U.S. government that ____11____ the fight to continue this practice. After years of planning, the Makah ____12____ the first hunt for the late fall of 1998. They succeeded in bringing in a gray whale about six months later. Today the Makah hunt whales in the ____13____ way – from large seagoing canoes, using harpoons. Divers enter the water and tie the killed whale’s jaws shut to prevent the animal from sinking. The whales are finally towed to shore and cut into pieces ____14____ traditional rituals. The blubber and meat

Section B

Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

A

In December 2008, Caroline Kennedy - daughter of the late U.S. President John F. Kennedy - sat down, as a frontrunner for the Senate seat in New York, for a televised interview that helped decide the future of her campaign. The

result was a disaster.

Her performance wasn’t well rece ived, in part because her speech was full of filler words - “ums,” “ahs” and “you knows.” One listener counted 27 “ums” and 38 “you knows” in the space of five minutes. A few weeks after the interview, Kennedy ended her Senate campaign.

Filler words may seem natural in everyday speech, but they can be deadly in formal presentations. “Using excessive fillers is the most annoying speech habit,” said Susan Ward, a speech specialist. “They take your listener’s attention away often to the point that he doesn’t hear anything you say. Your message is entirely lost.”

Many speakers are afraid of pause. They believe their audience will think they are inarticulate(不善于表达) if they pause to think of what to say next, so they use filler words to avoid the silence. However, a pause is actually more impressive than a filler word. Listeners know that the speaker is thinking, trying to find the right word. Sometimes a pause can actually improve a speech, as when an actor uses a dramatic pause to hold the attention of his audience. A speaker shouldn’t be afraid to pause occasionally during a speech; it shows self-confidence.

It takes some work to cut out filler words. You can begin by taking a few seconds to think about what you want to say the next time you are asked a question. This pause will help you begin powerfully, and it will help you avoid using a filler word.

The same public speaking technique applies when you are shifting from one idea to another. While you may be tempted to fill the silence between ideas with a filler word, remember to allow yourself to pause and think about what you want to say next.

If you need help overcoming your “um” problem, consider asking a family member or a friend to point out when you use filler words. You also could record an upcoming presentation and then watch yourself in action. You may be amazed at how often you say “um” or “uh”!

Although we live in a fast-paced society that seemingly demands instant answers, we must use the pause to our advantage. Finally, we should only speak when we are ready.

1. In the first two paragraphs of the article the writer intends to ________.

A. introduce Caroline Kennedy to readers

B. explain what filler words are

C. illustrate how deadly filler words can be in the public speech

D. remind readers that they should count filler words used in public speeches

2. The reason why filler words are considered annoying by speech specialist is that ________.

A. they prevent the listener from focusing on what the speaker is saying

B. they convey the speake r’s superiority to the listener

C. they mean the speaker is not articulate at all

D. they make the speaker appear self-confident

3. When used properly, pauses in speeches can actually ________.

A. help the speaker calm down

B. hold the attention of the audience

C. show the speaker’s anxiety

D. help the audience relax

59. Which of the following is NOT suggested as a way to get rid of filler words?

A. To have mental training in order to think faster.

B. To watch a recording of your own speech.

C. To ask someone else to point out when you use filler words.

D. To practice thinking for a moment before answering a question.

B

Scholarship Application Tips in 2013 for college students

●Before you apply

1. Work hard to get good grades. Don’t sweat about one bad grade, but always strive to do your best.

2. Get involved, and stay involved, in out-of-class activities. Sports, clubs, drama, bands and orchestras - these often count toward a student’s overall scholarship application evaluation. The same goes f or paid (or unpaid) work experience.

3. Begin your scholarship research early - by your sophomore(大学二年级) or junior year of high school, if possible. Make special note of application deadlines, as they can vary from late summer to late spring.

4. Apply for as many scholarships as you are eligible(符合条件的) for - several smaller scholarships can add up to a lot of money.

●During the application process

1. Read the supplementary materials that come with scholarship application forms to better understand the progra m’s focus (community service, subject interest). Try to answer the questions with the focus area in mind.

2. Answer questions as they are asked. Don’t go off topic.

3. If there is a financial component to the application, make sure you get accurate and complete information from all appropriate sources to ensure your eligibility.

4. Take your time. Write down everything you can think of for each question, then set the application aside for a day so you can look everything over again before you send it off.

5. Don’t wait until the last minute to complete your application, especially if you are applying online. Computer systems can get blocked with the large volume of applicants hoping to submit(上交) their qualifications during the last few days and hours before a deadline.

6. If a third party has to complete part of your application, such as providing a letter of recommendation, make sure you ask them early on and remind them as often as necessary to ensure they provide you with the necessary materials.

7. Last but not least, review your application with your parents to make sure you haven’t left out any important details. Good luck to the students applying for the 2013 scholarship programs!

1. Before you apply for a scholarship, it’s best to ________.

A. pay more attention to grades than to extracurricular activities

B. focus on only one scholarship application

C. get as much work experience as possible

D. begin your preparation as early as possible

2. The underlined phrase “sweat about” most probably means ________.

My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, and then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around. One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up（咬破）one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl.” She looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes. Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she'd let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we'd be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone. Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss the days when she was with us. 21. What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family? A. Look at them sadly. B. Keep them company. C. Play games with them. D.

She played games with anyone she liked. C. She was loved by everybody she met. D. She went everywhere with the family. 4. Some people got frightened by Brownie when she ________.

When it comes to music, scientists find that nurture can overpower nature. A study shows musical preferences seem to be mainly shaped by a person’s cultural upbringing and experiences rather than biological factors. “Our results show that there is a profound cultural difference in the way people respond to consonant（和谐的）and dissonant（不和谐的）sounds, and this suggests that other cultures hear the world differently,” says Josh McDermott, a scientist in Cambridge.
