A
It looks like 2017 is shaping up to be a record-breaking year in movie History. Here is a list of some of the year’s biggest blockbuste rs so far.
Kong: Skull Island
A reboot (重启) of King Kong would normally get laughed at in this day and age, but it looks like this modem version of the story will be worth watching. With US
actress Brie Larson and UK actor Tom Hiddleston in the mix, this film is set to be this year’s biggest monster tale.
Release Date: 3/10/17
Beauty and the Beast
Director Bill Condon is bringing back a part of our childhood in live action, complete with the songs we all remember and love. With British stars Emma Watson and Dan Stevens leading the cast, the classic Walt Disney story already sounds like it’ll be a delight for both children and adults.
Release Date: 3/17/17
The Fate of the Furious
There was doubt that we’d even get a Fast 8, especially after the fitting ending US actor Paul Walker’s character was given at the end of Furious 7. Fans thought they’d never see Dom and the rest of the crew back in action, but thankfully, US star Vin Diesel himself confirmed that The Fate of the Furious is fueling up for another go. The actor’s character, Dom, turns to the dark side, funded by new enemy Cipher, played by South African actress Charlize Theron. Can the rest of Dom’s family join together to bring their old leader down? Find out in April.
Release Date: 4/14/17
Spider-Man: Homecoming
Spider Man is heading home to Marvel Studios for the first time. The movie will show us Peter Parker’s high school days, and will continue the threads we saw formed during his initial appearance in Captain America: Civil War. We know that Michael Keaton is playing The Vulture in this story, and that both Happy Hogan and Tony Stark, played by US actors Jon Favreau and Robert Downey Jr., are along for the ride. But it’s Tom Holland’s show as Spider-Man, so let’s see what he has in store. Release Date: 7/7/17
21. Which of the following movies can’t you see on May Day?
A. Kong: Skull Island.

One day my two sons and I got into my old car to drive to the local post office.
I backed out of my drive slowly like I normally do and then pulled to a stop at the side road that leads to the main highway. When it was clear I pulled out and stepped on the gas. As I stepped on the clutch（离合器）and tried to shift into second, though,
I immediately knew that something was wrong. The normally solid gear shift（档位杆）now felt like a spoon in a bowl of soup. I tried quickly to get it to lock into any of the gears but did not succeed. Thankfully, the steering wheel（方向盘）was still working fine and I allowed the car to go to the end of the side road where I was able to pull safely into a wide spot and turn the engine off.
It was only later in the day that I finally realized how blessed I had been. I could have been on the main road when that stick shift failed. I could have been in the middle of a curve with no place to turn off the road. I could have had a car too close behind me that wouldn’t have b een able to stop in time. A hundred things could have made this incident dangerous or deadly. Yet, the gear shift broken at just the right moment to keep me and my boys safe.
Far too often we only see the bad things in life. We get angry when things don’t go out way, and we fail to see the thousands of times that they do. Yes, my car broken down. Still, my sons and I are safe. We are loved. And we have been given more time here in this world to share our own love and light.
24. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. The clutch.
B. The gear shift.
C. The spoon.
D. The car.
25. How did the writer stop the car at last?
A. By turning the engine off quickly.
B. By turning to a local garage for help.
C. By removing the steering wheel away.
D. By letting it slow down to stop naturally.
26. The driver’s thoughts in Paragraph 2 imply that ______.
A. they were lucky enough to be safe
B. the car needed to be repaired well
C. the driver was good at driving a broken car
D. it was important to find a suitable place to park
27. By writing the story, the writer expected us to ______.
A. be careful in our driving
B. ignore the bad things in our life
C. share our love with others in time
D. find a bless even from a bad situation
C
Coke was introduced by the Coca Cola company in 1886, making it a rather true and tested favorite of generations of people in over 200 countries. This list should
give you some ideas on how to get more from your coke than usual.
1. Coca Cola is an excellent rust buster (除锈剂). If you have a bunch of small rusty objects, put them in coke overnight and give them a good scrub in the morning. Coke helps to break down the rust, making cleaning much easier. Be sure to throw out the used coke when you are done with it or you might be taking a trip to the doctor.
2. Like the previous item, the citric acid (柠檬酸) in coke makes for an excellent window cleaner. This is especially useful for car windows. Pour a can of coke over the window and rub the window, then wipe it off with a wet cloth to remove any sugary matter from the sugar in the drink. As coke is full of sugar, you should clean the sticky matter off the window glasses, or it will be not a cleaner but a dirt.
3. For those of you who live in areas where skunk (臭鼬) smells can be an issue from time to time, one can of coke added to water with detergent (清洁剂) really helps to break the smell down. If you have been sprayed, stand in the shower and cover yourself from head to toe with coke — wait for a few minutes, then wash yourself with a shower. Coke is an excellent hair treatment so you get two tips for the price of one with this item!
4. Pots can sometimes get black on the bottom. The black is almost impossible to remove; this is caused by over-cooking. To remove the black and renew your pot, pour in a can of coke (or as much as you need to cover the blackened area by an inch) and put it on the stove on a low heat. After an hour or so, wash the pot as normal.
28. What does the underlined word ‘‘scrub” in Parag raph 2 probably mean?
A. Start.
B. Cleaning.
C. Shake.
D. Example.
29. What is important while using coke to clean car windows?
A. Use a dry cloth.
B. Rub the window lightly.
C. Don’t pour too much coke.
D. Clean the sugary matter thoroughly.
30. For which purpose does coke have to be mixed with other material?
A. To get rid of the black on the pot.
B. To break down the rust,
C. To remove smells.
D. To clean windows.
31. What type of writing is this text?
A. An advertisement.
B. A review.
C. A news report.
D. A practical guide.
D
Bethany Burke was packing for a family vacation when she glanced in the mirror and froze. She saw a small ugly red bump in the middle of her forehead. “That’s the worst,” she remembers think ing. She had no idea, however, how much worse it would get.
Bethany, then a 15-year-old high school student tried to forget about the bump as she boarded a flight from her hometown of Austin, Texas, to Portland, Oregon. But during the flight the bump grew. And grew. And grew.
After the plane landed, more bumps appeared, including one close to her eye. Her parents took her to the nearest emergency room. As it turns out, Bethany had been attacked by a superbug (超级病菌).
Superbugs were once a problem only in hospitals and nursing homes. In the past
decade, though, they have been affecting healthy children and adults as well. In a few hours, they can cause life-threatening infections.
“Teens, especially student athletes, can be easily hurt because superbugs stay in warm, damp places where people come into close contact with each other, such as school locker rooms and gyms,” says Dr. Aaron Glatt, an infectious disease specialist. “If you get cut playing sports, and you come into contact with a superbug on a mat, you give it a way to get in,” he explains.
As for Bethany, she says the doctor didn’t seem too concerned. “He just handed me this pill, an antibiotic (抗生素),” Bethany says. “He gave us the impression that it was going to clear up very fast.”
It didn’t take lon g for Bethany to realize the antibiotics the doctor had given her weren’t working. One of the bumps grew so large that she could no longer open her eye, and her pain increased. Her parents rushed her to another hospital. The new medicines seemed to start working. Her fever dropped, and the bumps stopped growing.
Luckily for Bethany, there were still three powerful antibiotics that together were able to fight off her infection. But what happens when superbugs become resistant even to those drugs? For doctors, that’s the biggest worry.
32. Bethany discovered a bump on her forehead .
A. after the plane for Portland landed
B. when she came back from a vacation
C. after she boarded a flight from Austin
D. when she was preparing for
a vacation
33. Student athletes are likely to be attacked by superbugs partly because .
A. they sweat a lot
B. they are often tired
C. they are healthy and strong
D. they often wear dirty clothes
34. How did Bethany feel after taking the pills given by the doctor in the nearest
emergency room?
A. Even worse.
B. Much belter.
C. A little better.
D. As terrible as before.
35. Doctors are most worried that .
A. antibiotics are being overused
B. teens are being attacked by superbugs
C. superbugs may become resistant to all drugs
D. more people will get infected with superbugs

第二节书面表达
Dear Jim，
I am so sorry to hear that you have been upset recently. From my point of view, there is nothing wrong with you developing your own hobby because it can enrich your life. Of course, to attend a hip-hop training course at the weekend is a brilliant idea. Your parents may worry that you will spend too much time on it so that your study will be badly affected, or they may consider that you will easily get hurt if you learn hip-hop.
I think you should make your parents aware of the benefits of the training class. Hip-hop training can help you have a good health and a sharp mind, which will certainly contribute to better study results in turn. Of course, you must promise that you will balance the time between the study and the hobby. Most importantly, you should let them know you will be careful when dancing.
I’m sure your parents will agree with you in the end.
Yours,
Li
