All was well until the wildlife began behaving 32 . The raccoons started crying noisily. They could be 33 throughout the entire valley.

My face became red with 36 as I read the letter. I’d been found out! I was now identified as the 37 maker!
I went downstairs to discuss the matter with my husband. “I’m not 38 that the association has come up with a policy about it. They must have gotten 39 ,” he said.
“OK, I’m going to 40 feeding the animals,” I said.
Although I told myself that the wildlife around me would 41 without cat food, I felt guilty. Late that night, I walked slowly into the kitchen for a snack. Then a scene outside 42 my attention: There, on the hillside, was my neighbor. She was 43 two deer in the cold.

A
Making the announcement, Peter Englund, permanent secretary of the Swedish Academy, called Alice Munro a ―master of the contemporary short story‖.
―She has taken an art form, the short story, which has tended to live a little bit in the shadow of the novel, and she has cultivated it almost to perfection,‖ he said.
The 82-year-old, whose books include Dear Life and dance of the Happy Shades, is only the 13th woman to win the Nobel Prize for literature since its start in 1901.
―I knew I was in the running, yes, but I never thought I would win,‖ Munro told Canadian media.
Alice Munro: ―I would really hope that this would make people see the short story as an important art form.‖
Munro, who began writing in her teenage years, published her first story, The Dimensions of a Shadow, in 1950.
Dance of the Happy Shades, published in 1968, was Munro’s first collection, and it went on to win Canada’s highest literary prize, the Governor General’s Award.
In 2009, she won the Man Booker International Prize for her entire body of work — but she downplayed her achievements.
―I think maybe I was successful in doing this because I didn’t have any other talents,‖ she once said in an interview.
BBC Arts Editor Will Gompertz said Munro had been ―at the very top of her game since she started‖.
―Very few writers are her equal,‖ he said, adding ―She gets to the heart of what it is to be human‖.
The award ―probably won’t make a commercial difference‖ to the author, he added, but it ―makes a huge difference to how her work will be viewed in historical terms‖.
―If she hadn’t won it before she died, I think it would have been a terrible, terrible omission (遗漏).‖
Often compared to Anton Chekhov, she is known for writing about the human spirit and a regular theme of her work is the dilemma faced by young girls growing up
and coming to terms with living in a small town.
Several of her stories have also been adapted for the screen, including The Bear Came over the Mountain.
46. According to the text, Alice Munro ________. A. is very good at writing short stories B. had her first story published in 1968
C. is the first woman to win the Nobel Prize for literature D. was confident of winning the Nobel Prize for literature 47. What does Will Gompertz think of Alice Munro? A. He thinks very highly of her. B. He thinks she’s a productive writer. C. He is amazed by her different skills. D. He compares her to Anton Chekhov. 48. Which words can best describe Alice Munro? A. Honest and responsible. B. Cautious and friendly. C. Caring and determined. D. Talented and modest. 49. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Short story — an important art form. B. A master of the contemporary short story. C. Alice Munro’s novel adapted for the screen. D. Alice Munro wins Nobel Prize for Literature.
B
One evening last summer, when I asked my 17-year-old son, Ray, for help with dinner, his response surprised me, “What’s a colander (漏勺)?” he asked.
I could only blame myself. Nobody’s hands went in the sauce except my own. But that night, as I explained with a touch of panic that a colander is the thing with holes in it, I wondered what else I hadn’t prepared Ray for.
As parents, while we focus on our child’s confidence and character, we perhaps don’t always consider that we are also raising someone’s future roommate, boyfriend, husband, or father. I wanted to know that I’d raised a boy who would never ask the woman in his life, “What’s for dinner?” So I came up with a plan: I would offer Ray a private home economics course. I was delighted to find that he didn’t say no.
For two hours, three days a week, Ray was all mine. One day, as his tomato sauce reduced on the stove, he washed and seasoned a chicken for roasting. Then he rolled out the piecrust (馅饼) and filled it with apples, all while listening to my explanation on the importance of preheating an oven.
I knew that he would rather have been shooting hoops I the driveway than learning to mend socks with his mother — he tried to beg off sewing lessons, even though I insisted that one day, someone would find the sight of him fixing his own shirt very attractive — but it couldn’t be denied that he was learning, and more than just housekeeping. “I appreciate more what you do as a mom,” he told me one day.
Ray now understands the finer points of cooking, and more important, he realizes there’s nothing masculine (男子气的) about being helpless. Not only can he
make his own dinner, he can make it for his family, too. That’s what I call a man. 50. Hearing her son’s question, the author felt _______. A. shocked B. angry C. disappointed D. calm 51. We can learn from the text that Ray ________. A. preferred sewing to cooking B. made great progress in cooking
C. was unwilling to take the course at first
D. always thought it attractive to do housework
52. The underlined part “more than just housekeeping” shows that Ray ______. A. fell in love with house work B. did other work in the house C. began to be more important D. acknowledged the author’s efforts 53. What would be the best title for the text? A. Should boys be involved in housework? B. Present for my future daughter-in-law. C. I’m proud I’ve raised a curious son. D. Dependent or independent.
C
Can food be free, fresh and easily accessible? That’s the bold (大胆) question that the city of Seattle is hoping to answer with a new experimental farm not far from the city’s downtown area that will have fruits and vegetables for anyone to harvest this fall.
On Beacon Hill, just south of central Seattle, landscape developers and a few affordable-food advocates are building an eatable food forest. Everything grown in the area will be eatable. And it’ll be open around the clock to anyone who wants to come and pick some fresh blueberries or pears.
Organizers shared with National Geographic a list of the crop offerings. Many are expected: apples, berries and tomatoes. But others are pretty far-out. A large Asian community in the area suggested things like Asian pears and honeyberries. A European influence led to the planting of medlar trees.
The concept is modeled on permaculture, a design system and school of thought emphasizing the use of renewable nature resources and the enrichment of local ecosystems. Offering people free, fresh food is one motivation, but making the land useful and ecologically enriched is the larger goal.
That being said, some potential problems come to mind. What if all of one fruit is gone the first weekend when it’s ripe? What if people pick things too early and spoil the potential for everyone?
Organizers aren’t concerned about those questions. ―We’ve had many discussions about what would happen if someone comes and picks all the blueberries,‖ says Margarett Harrison, the landscape architect designing the project.‖ But that’s been considered as a good thing. We’ll just plant more.‖
Anything related to agriculture and good food — in large quantities — takes time. Most of the trees won’t be mature enough for a few more years. But a few decades could make the area impressively productive.
Idealistic? Perhaps. But it’s the kind of idealism that anyone who likes to eat fresh things from time to time can get behind. And that’s the type of motivation that organizers hope will keep going.
54. Paragraph 3 is mainly about _______.
A. the crops that will be harvested this fall B. people’s attitude towards the project C. which communities live in the area D. how the food selection was made
55. What’s Margarett Hrrison’s attitude towards the potential problems the forest may face?
A. Concerned. B. Cautious. C. Optimistic. D. Uninterested 56. The text is mainly about ______. A. Seattle’s free food experiment B. what the future of forests will be C. agricultural development in Seattle D. how to keep in harmony with nature
D
As a contestant on The X Factor, 13-year-old Rachel Crow seemed to have exactly what it took to win: strong praise from judges, a beautiful voice, and a lovable personality. Then she was voted off.
When the results were read, Rachel broke down, sobbing and screaming for her mom, who had to rush onstage to comfort her.
It was a humiliating moment for Rachel, but a great moment for The X Factor — just the kind of drama TV audiences love.
Some fans said Rachel’s breakdown proved she was too young to be on the show. And though there was nothing exceptional about someone Rachel’s age being on reality TV — children and teens appear in everything from Dance Moms to The Biggest Loser — Rachel’s meltdown did raise an important question: Should kids be on reality TV at all? Many psychologists are saying “No”.
It’s well known that early fame can be harmful and that many former child stars struggle as adults. Being followed by photographers 24/7 and having everything they do reported in newspapers and blogs can be hard for young people to deal with. It can make them feel as though their worth depends on what others say. Reality TV takes the pressure of early fame to a whole new level. Kids on reality TV don’t play characters. They play themselves. Cameras expose their most private moments for our entertainment.
Laws exist that protect child actors, making sure they go to school and limiting the hours they can work. In many states, though, these laws do not apply to kids on reality TV, because they are not considered actors.
Dangers aside, there’s no doubt that reality shows do offer exciting opportunities and the potential to make money. A 7-year-old girl who attends a TV show earns about $36,000 per season. After competing on The X Factor, One
Direction went on to become international stars. Even Rachel made out OK. She released an album and voices a character in the movie Rio 2. And she showed resilience (适应力). “I’m not feeling great, but I’ll be fine,” she told reporters after breakdown. “I’m Rachel still.”
57. The underlined word “humiliating” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “ _______”. A. exciting B. precious C. important D. embarrassing 58. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that some of Rachel’s fans thought that she _______.
A. was not good enough B. deserved better results C. should have been much stronger D. shouldn’t have been on the show
59. Paragraph 5 is mainly about _______. A. how kids should deal with pressure B. why early fame can be harmful to kids C. the importance of kids being themselves D. what some former child stars have achieved 60. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Kids should look for more challenges. B. Reality shows may change a kid forever.
C. Reality shows can benefit kids in some ways. D. Kids can earn little money from reality shows. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从下边的A—F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
A. Change your beliefs.
B. Practice healthy eating.
C. Live a healthy lifestyle.
D. Be aware of your thoughts. E. Change your focus of attention. F. Replace negative self talks with positive ones.
Tips on How to Think Positive
61. Your thoughts that consist of mental images and self talk are on automatic mode (状态). When you see, hear, smell or touch something, your mind comes out with its mental representation. You will then find yourself feeling something. To develop positive thinking, become aware of your feelings by checking them from time to time. Ask yourself what you were thinking and what caused the thought. Take note of what you were saying to yourself.
62. How often do you say things such as “It happens every time” when something doesn’t turn out right? What do you say to yourself when you have made a mistake? Do you say things like, “Stupid of me. Here I go again?” Another tip on how to think positive is to catch yourself saying all these negative things. Demand your inner self to stop. You can say something such as, “Stop it. I am much better than that. The next time I will …”
63. Your beliefs shape your thoughts. If you believe you can’t do something or if you have conditioned your mind to see unpleasantness in people or situations, you will see and experience them in your life. You can change your limiting and negative beliefs by challenging and questioning them. You can also do so by re-framing things or changing your view. 64. Your thoughts determine what you focus on. You can force yourself to see and focus on the positive side of things, people and yourself. Develop an attitude of seeing things in a new or different perspective. Instead of thinking and seeing what doesn’t work, look at what works. Rather than seeing something as a problem or difficulty, consider it as an opportunity. Once you see things differently, you will think in a different manner. 65. Get out in the open and get physically active. Make it a habit to exercise daily. Exercise affects your attitude about life. It is one of the ways to prevent or reduce stress and anxiety and maintain mental health. Practice healthy eating so that you can maintain your weight, prevent sickness and reduce the risk of major health problems. Read and listen to motivational and self-help books or recordings. Spending too much time sitting at home watching television and filling your mind with bad news and reality shows won’t help expand your thinking.

How to build an economized campus
Nowadays, waste on campus has become an increasingly serious problem. We can often see many students leave the water running and some let the lights on for a
long time, which causes a serious waste of resources.
Therefore, it’s high time that we took some measures to deal with the problem. Firstly, we should realize that natural resources are limited. Many parts of our country are suffering from drought and power scarcity. Besides, everyone has the responsibility to preserve natural resources. We should save every piece of paper, every drop of water and turn off the lights when leaving the room. Only through these measures can we hope to build an economized campus.
The small efforts by a single individual may make a huge difference. Let us work together to build an economized campus！
