A
As the Chinese mainland’s first Disney park kicks off ticket sales on Monday, Chinese scalpers are already running a thriving trade in tickets, some of which are being hawked at 1,600 yuan ($246), triple the official price.
A rough search for Shanghai Disneyland tickets on Chinese e-commerce giant Taobao on Sunday yielded some 250 results, with prices ranging from 1 yuan to 1,600 yuan.
"We began to sell tickets about one month ago. You can prepay for tickets which will be delivered by the end of March," one Taobao shop owner told the Global Times on Sunday, claiming that over 1,000 tickets have been sold. Another shop owner claimed that tickets for the coming June, July and August are sold out.
Tourists can book tickets on Shanghai Disneyland Park’s official website, its official WeChat account and at authorized online shops beginning at 12 am on Monday.
Several Taobao shop owners reached by the Global Times on Sunday pledged their tickets’ authenticity. While some explained that they will help customers book tickets when official sales begin, others claimed that they were selling coin certificates that will be exchanged for tickets.
While an ID card check is required for entry to the park, one Taobao shop owner claimed that their tickets will only require a check of visitors’ cell phone numbers and names.
The park has denied selling tickets for "trial operations," after some netizens tried to sell tickets for early access to the park, thepaper.cn reported.
As the first Disney park in the Chinese mainland, Shanghai Disneyland Park is expected to receive a huge number of tourists when it opens to the public on June 16. Many Net users have expressed their hopes to visit the park, which they expect will be cheaper than a trip to Hong Kong, where China’s first Disney park was built.
56. What’s the official price of Shanghai Disney park ticket?
A. 1,600 RMB
B. 4,800 RMB
C. 534RMB
D. 246 RMB
57. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word in Para5?
A. guaranteed
B. deduced
C. clarified
D. justified
58. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. We can search for any related information about Shanghai Disneyland Park on Taobao.
B. Tourists can only purchase Shanghai Disneyland Park tickets on its official website.
C. Some tourists can enjoy “trial operation” tickets to enter Shanghai Disneyland Park earlier.
D. Shanghai Disneyland Park is expected to embrace prosperity after being opened to the public.
B
The language used by scientists to explain complex ideas can be difficult and sometimes even boring. The language, with its Latin words and long scientific terms, could be one reason some people avoid learning about science, especially children.
American Danielle Dixson is a marine biologist. She wants to make science fun for children. Dixson has turned that idea into a series of children's books. The nine books are written so that her research is easy to understand.
"I just don't really think kids should be left out of it and I thought that story books may be one of the easiest ways to sort of captivate them and have them understand."
Danielle Dixson is an assistant professor at the University of Delaware. Dixson says another goal of her science writing is to help increase understanding of the ocean environment.
She spent almost two years in the South Pacific working on her post-doctoral research. She went to the island nation of Fiji to investigate coral reefs that are collapsing or, as she says, degrading.
The goal of her research is to identify why some healthy coral reefs are breaking down. She also wants to find out how this degradation affects fish that live in and around the reefs.
"A number of the reefs are converting from being, you know, these beautiful coral reef systems that have a lot of holes for animals to hide in, into reefs that the coral's degrading and collapsing and then there is not as much hiding spaces for fishes and things like that."
Early in her research, Dixson made some videos for people in Fiji. The videos explained her work to the local community. She says she wanted them to understand how her research would help them.
For the local children, Dixson started making books explaining her work. This helped to keep them from walking through her "laboratory" - baby pools filled with water she was using for her experiments. "I was living, actually, in the village with some of the locals. It was a lot easier to get research done if they understood what I was doing and how it would help them. And one of the ways that I was able to connect with the adults was I would make these videos for them. And then I started making children's books for the kids so that they would have a better idea of why I was there, so that when I ask them not to walk through the baby pools I was using for experiments or something like that, that that would actually happen." she added.
When Dixson returned to the United States, she started doing the same thing for children in this country. She uses colorful story books to capture the imagination of children. While she has their attention, she provides very useful information about science.
As a marine scientist, Dixson wants her stories to be both educational and inspirational, serving as an agent for change. She also includes in her books "a call to action," asking readers what they can do to make a difference.
"One of the things I do in those story books is I have a last page. And the last page talks about what you can do to help. You know, there is a lot of things that even a 6-year-old is able to do, whether it's shutting your lights off when you leave a room, or riding your bike to your friend's house instead of having your parents drive you. There is a lot of stuff that they can do and still feel they're making a difference."
Danielle Dixson's books shine a light on the environmental problems facing our world's oceans. They also make science fun and understandable for children. But her books may have an unintended consequence, something she may not have planned on.
59. What may lead to people’s negative attitude toward science learning?
A. The language can’t explain scientific ideas clearly.
B. Scientists are always boring and difficult to communicate with.
C. The language usually contains complicated words and terms.
D. People don’t need to understand science at all.
60. Which of the following may be the purpose of Dixson’s science writing?
A. To make the record of her research.
B. To make people aware of ocean environment
C. To raise money for her research
D. To warn people of dangerous ocean lives.
61. What can we infer from Dixson’s research on coral reefs in Fiji?
A. She’s targeted at breaking down unhealthy coral reefs.
B. Coral reefs can shelter many fishes around.
C. The videos she made served the local community well.
D. Children there helped her a lot to accomplish books.
62. What may be the title of the passage?
A. You Reap What You Sow
B. Unity Is Strength
C. Haste Makes Waste
D. Circumstances Alter Cases
C
Hundreds of Chinese officials are to be sacked or demoted(降职) for their part in a vaccine scandal that has added to discontent at poor oversight of food and drug safety, especially relating to children.
Xinhua, the state news agency, said late on Wednesday that 357 officials are to face punishment, with 192 criminal cases already filed and 202 people detained(拘留)after improperly stored or transported vaccines were sent to 59 health institutions.
This is the latest in a string of food and drug safety scandals in a country where parents often import products for infants and babies from overseas to ensure quality. Many remember with fear the 2008 milk powder scandal, in which infant formula laced with melamine(三聚氰胺)caused at least six deaths and 300,000 children to fall ill.
Beijing last month made public an illegal operation in eastern Shandong province in which a hospital pharmacist and her daughter traded $88m in vaccines that may have been compromised because they were expired or improperly stored or transported.
The China Food and Drug Administration said, however, that the vaccines posed no greater than the normal risk to patients. “We don’t see that the vaccines’ effectiveness has been reduced,” added the health watchdog in a report.
Nonetheless, health officials fear a backlash against Chinese-manufactured vaccines, which already have a reputation for being more dangerous than those made overseas.
Wang Yuedan, deputy director of Peking University’s immunology department, said the key to evaluating risks is to check whether package seals are broken or for pollution with micro-organisms. “The vaccines in the Shandong case don’t have those problems,” he said.
Those vaccines had been subject to higher than normal temperatures that could have lowered their effectiveness and reduced their protective value. But the official investigation showed the vaccines “are still effective”, he said.
Beijing, which publicized the affair almost a year after it was exposed, and several years after it started, appeared eager to show commitment to crack down on abuses by announcing the action, political analysts said.
The CFDA said a system was being set up to track vaccines from production to use.
The World Health Organization warned the scandal could endanger China’s public health gains if parents become distrustful of vaccines. It also expressed confidence in Chinese vaccines, saying public immunization campaigns had erased polio(小儿麻痹症) and sharply reduced cases of hepatitis B(乙肝)and measles.
63. According to Wang Yuedan’s opinion, the vaccines in Shandong ______.
A. were polluted by micro-organisms.
B. were resistant to high temperature.
C. decreased their value of protection
D. were still effective
64. What’s the WHO’s attitude toward Chinese vaccines?
A. Indifferent
B. Skeptical
C. Objective
D. Hopeful
65. The passage is most probably from a ______.
A. scientific research
B. medical journal
C. law document
D. news report
D
Every immigrant leads a double life. Every immigrant has a double identity and a double vision, being suspended between an old and a new home, an old and new self. The very notion of a new home, of course, is in a sense as impossible as the notion of new parents. Parents are who they are; home is what it is.
Yet home, like parentage, must be legitimized(合理) through love; otherwise, it is only a fact of geography or biology. Most immigrants to America found their love of their old homes betrayed: they did not really abandon their countries; their countries abandoned them. In America, they found the possibility of a new love, the chance to nurture new selves.
Not uniformly, not without exceptions. Every generation has its Know-Nothing movement. Its understandable fear and hatred of alien invasion is as true today as it always was, but in spite of all this, the American attitude remains unique. Throughout history, exile has been a disaster; America turned it into a triumph and placed its immigrants in the center of a national epic.
The epic is possible because America is an idea as much as it is a country. America has nothing to do with loyalty to a dynasty and very little to do with loyalty to particular place, but everything to do with loyalty to a set of principles. To immigrants, those principles are especially real because so often they were absent or violated in their native lands. It was no accident in the ’60 and ‘70s, when alienation was in flower, that it often seemed to be “native” Americans who felt alienated, while aliens or the children of aliens upheld the native values. The immigrant’s double vision results in a special, somewhat skewed perspective on America that can mislead but that can also find revelation in the things that to native Americans are obvious. Psychiatrist Robert Coles speaks of those “who straddle worlds and make of that very experience a new world.”
“Home is where you are happy.” Sentimental, perhaps, and certainly not conventionally patriotic, but is appropriate for a country that wrote the pursuit of happiness into its founding document. That continues for the immigrant in America, and it never stops, but it comes to rest at a certain moment. The moment is hard to pin down, but it occurs perhaps when the immigrant’s double life and double vision joint together toward a single state of mind. When the old life, the old home fade into a certain unreality: places one merely visits, in fact or in the mind, practicing the tourism of memory. It occurs when the immigrant learns his ultimate lesson: above all countries, America, if loved, returns love.
66. How can we understand the underlined sentence in Para1?
A. Parents have nothing to do with home.
B. Home is irreplaceable just like parents.
C. New home can somewhat represent parents.
D. Parents and home are essentially different.
67. What’s the result of American’s unique attitude toward immigrants?
A. Immigrants have played an important role in America’s history.
B. Immigrants have endured more sufferings than those in other countries.
C. Immigrants have been a disaster to America’s development.
D. Immigrants have posed fear and hatred on America.
68. Why are principles real and important for immigrants in America?
A. Because they have to accept those principles as a deal for living in America.
B. Because they can sense the power of those principles related to religion.
C. Because those principles are laws and regulations in America.
D. Because those principles are consistent with their beliefs.
69. What does the underlined word “That” in Para5 refer to?
A. Traditional patriotism
B. Immigrants’ double life and vision
C. The pursuit of happiness.
D. Returned love from America
70. What can be the best title of the passage?
A. Love America, Love Yourself
B. Home Is Where You Are Happy
C. Experience a New World
D. Be a Real American Immigrant
第I卷(两部分, 共35分)
第四部分 任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填上一个最恰当的词。
It’s no secret that doing good makes others happy – but did you know it can make you happy as well?
According to a study, people participating in meaningful activities were happier and felt that their lives had more purpose than people who only engaged in pleasure-seeking behaviors.
Try giving these four things to others to start your journey to a happier and healthier lifestyle.
1. Your Time
With a busy life, it can be hard to find any time to give away. However, volunteering your time has great benefits, including making new friends and connections, learning new skills and even advancing your career.
According to a paper about the link between health and volunteering, volunteering is connected with lower instances of depression and reduces the risk of dying by 22 percent.
2. Your Attention
Most of us think we’re good listeners, but according to psychologist Paul Donoghue, most people are aware that others don’t listen as well as they could. In addition, they’re not fully aware that they themselves aren’t listening.
When practicing mindfulness meditation(正念禅修), you focus on what you experience in the moment and let your thoughts and emotions pass through without judgment. Did you know that giving someone your undivided attention helps you also? When done well, active listening strengthens your focus－which is a major part of good meditation.
3. Your Compassion
The psychological meaning of compassion is the ability to understand another person’s emotional state. Compassion differs from empathy(移情) in that those who experience compassion not only put themselves in another person’s shoes, but also want to reduce that person’s suffering.
A brain-imaging study showed that the brain’s pleasure centers are equally active when we give money to the poor as when we receive money ourselves.
4. Your Money
According to an experiment, those who spend money on other people are significantly happier than those who spend the same quantity of money on themselves.
Whether or not you can offer other gifts, donating money helps make real change happen. It represents time spent, compassion and careful attention to the needs of others.
Topic Doing good makes others and yourself happy

第五部分 书面表达 (满分25分)
阅读下面短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
Recently the reporters of CCTV 11 made a random survey in some big cities in China among the pedestrians on the correct spelling of some most commonly used Chinese characters, the result of which was completely beyond their expectations.
The expression they used was “embarrass”, which is pronounced in Chinese “ganga”. First, they asked eight students from Grades 4 to 6 in a famous primary school in Beijing, and half of them could write them correctly. Later they came to a secondary school and asked eight students to do the same thing, but this time only three of whom wrote the two characters correctly. What’s more surprising was that they asked five persons who had got master’s or doctor’s degrees to write the same characters, but only two of them could write them correctly. The result was not only terrific but ironic as well. Is it too difficult? Absolutely not!
