1. A. 上文说几年前，中国高校的学生在新学期开始时，会攀比新书包、新衣服或者新钢笔，而本句作者笔锋一转，用however(然而) 来表示转折，说明今天所有的那些情况都改变（change）了
2. D. 依题意“如果你还是只带着这些东西回到学校，你就过时了”，可知只有D符合。With 有 “带着”的意思 。

3.D 比较四个选项，只有pleased和happy表示并列意义，符合语境。
4. C 表示“其他人”要用others
5. A 依题意“年轻人认为生活在21世纪九必须要跟上时代（times）”.keep up with 意为 “ 跟上”
6. C fall behind 是固定搭配，意为“落后，落在…的后面”，符合题意。
7. A 此句是that引导的宾语从句。That在句中不作任何成分时可以省略。
8. B 听流行音乐的“听”要用动词listen to.
9. B 根据句子的结构，此处缺少一个副词，比较四个选项，只有B 符合题意。Just like意为“就像……”.
10. D 比较四个选项，依题意“他们解说，就像电子词典，这些在他们学习方面可能也是有用的”可知只有D符合。
11. B then 意为“然后”，显然不符合题意，其他三项都有“也”的意思，either用于否定句中。too和also都用于肯定句中，但是also用于谓语动词之前，助动词之后，too用于句末，一般用逗号隔开。故答案为B
12. D 因为对学习可能是有用的，所以他们认为他们的父母应该理解他们为什么（why）想要这些东西。
13. A 新学期开始当然是返回学校。Return意为“返回”，是及物动词，后面直接接名词。
14. B 由下文“他们经常用暑假期间自己赚来的钱买”和上段说“中国学生向父母要钱买”之间很明显是一种对比关系，故答案为B
15. B 当然是用钱买（buy）这些他们需要的高科技的东西。
Passage 13
1.C snow 在这里是动词 “下雪”的意思, 在这里说天在下雪, 故选C.
2.B “drove”是 “驾驶” “drive”的过去时,上文说 “她开动了她的车”所以沿街道来应该是开下来.
3.A 下文说 “她唱歌”,她应该是听着音乐唱歌的,所以应该是 “打开收音机”,而 “turn over”表示 “使…….打翻”; “turn off”表示 “关上”; “turn down”表示 “降低”,所以选 “turn on”
4.C 上文说 “暖气机不能工作了”,所以她是用唱歌方式来保暖.
5.A “across” “穿过”,一般用于穿过桥或街道,而不能用于town, village或farm.
6.D上文说 “她失去了知觉”,因此下文应该是 “醒来”.
7.D上文说 “她醒来”,醒来前因为失去了知觉,所以她醒来后就不知道自己在什么地方,用 “where”
8.B下文中有 “ice” “冰”,所以天气和河水应该是非常寒冷的, “frozen” 和 “cold”都表示冷,但 “frozen” 比“cold”程度深,
9.B根据文章的内容,她出了车祸,应该是十分伤心(sad),而不是生气(angry),惊奇(surprise),害怕(afraid)的.
10.D根据下文猜测,她的车应该是困在冰中的,但 “keep”是 “保持,留下”的意思 ,“pull”是 “把……..从…..拉出”的意思, “take”是 “把……拿起”的意思,都不和文意,故用 “hold”
11.A 后半句 “ served times”可知 “爬山”她已经做过了,因此就不能选将来词性的意思.“tried”是 “try”的过去式, “尝试做谋事”( try to do sth)也符合文章,故用 “tried”.
12.B前文说“她尝试了几次”,后半句“again”都 可以表示“她有一次尝试”只有 “one more”表示 “另外的,又一次”,故选 “one more”.
13.D根据文章意思可知, “没有人知道她的车在桥下”.因此选 “on one”.
14.C上文说 “她躺在雪里”,可见他十分劳累,因此她应该是不能移动了,故选 “more”.
15.A 根据全文,此句应是 “她闭上双眼,等待死亡”,而不是 “必须”(had to) “有能力”(was able to)或 “决定”(decided to)故选 “等待”(waited to)”
Lifelong Learning (终身学习)
In the past, when students graduated from college and got jobs, only some of them went on with their study. But today, lifelong learning is becoming more and more common (常见的).
Lucy, who is forty, teaches physics at a college in Boston. “Next term, I’ll teach some of classes by using the Internet. This is the way of teaching that I’ve never used before,” says Lucy. “These days, I am taking a class to learn how to teach in this way, If not, I will lose my job.” At the same time, Lucy’s seventy-year-old parents, who live in New York, are taking an art history class online. “We love this subject,” says her father , “and we learn it to enjoy ourselves. You see we can study with people all over the world. What fun it is to learn like this!

B．阅读下面短文，然后根据其内容回答问题。
My name is Lin Fang. For a long time, I dreamed of doing something in poor areas in China and last year after I left my college, I became a volunteer teacher. It has changed my life completely!
I traveled a long way to a small village school in Long Zhou, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region(广西壮族自治区). On my way there, I thought about the village, the school of the first day and the children there. However, my heart sank(沉下) when I arrived there. It wasn’t what I thought of. It didn’t look like a school at all! The school had only three rooms, one for Grades1, 2 and 3, and the other for Grades4, 5 and 6. There was a third classroom for me.
The children welcomed me warmly on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions and I told them stories about myself and my life in Shanghai. The next day, I gave them a test to find out their level(水平). To my surprise, over half of the students failed in the test, but they all wanted to learn new things. I knew they needed me.
I spent many nights preparing lessons, reading test papers and marking homework. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hardworking children and I could see that they were making progress with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their lives better, and we are now good friends.
I have worked in Long Zhou for a year now. I’m very happy and the experience has been very useful for me. Now I’m more responsible and I know how to look after myself. I love the small village and the children. In fact, I would like to go on working here.
