Let Dogs In! Many homes in Western countries have a dog door. But it can be unsafe. Strangers or other animals could get inside through it. Not with this smart dog door! It stays closed. Your dog wears a special dog collar (项圈). When it nears the door, the door “knows” and then opens. Or, you can get a message on your phone when the dog nears it. You can open the door with your phone. _________________ Many people forget to drink or don’t know how much to drink during and after exercise. Now with the Nix Hydration Biosensor, it is easy. Simply stick the sensor (传感器) to your skin (皮肤). It will learn from your sweat (汗液) in real time and send messages to your phone or watch. It tells you when, what and how much to drink. Find a Place to Sleep Some people in Japan can’t find places to take a nap (小憩). In August, some “nap boxes” appeared in Japan and were soon widely accepted. They are as big as public phone boxes. The person will not fall over and some designs are comfortable. If people want to use them, they need to pay 41yuan for half an hour.

“I really want to, . but I can’t because.”
It hurts every time I hear someone say it. I see it as an excuse. Everyone has hopes and goals. We talk about how we will achieve them, but when it’s time to do them, we use that sentence.
During my teen years, I wanted to learn many things and achieve my dreams, yet I couldn’t. Living in an underdeveloped country, we didn’t have training courses or libraries. We were short of water, electricity, safety and chances.
One day, I decided to use the resources (资源) I had. I planned to get the Japanese Monbusho Scholarship (奖学金). I found articles and books online to learn Japanese. In a few months’ time, I could have a simple conversation in Japanese. I realized that I needed money. I built a hedgehog (刺猬) care website. After school, I researched and wrote articles about them. It lusted for three years.
You may expect a sprint-lifting ending where I traveled to Japan and fed on my website. That’s not how the story ended. In fact, I didn’t even get the chance to apply for the scholarship. Unwilling to accept the facts, I started an online university the next year. And the hedgehog website made me $60.
I tried, but it didn’t work out. It did-just not the way I expected. I’m not in Japan. My hedgehog website didn’t succeed. But I know how to speak Japanese and have met many interesting people along the way.
Anyone can accept the cards they’ve got and create their own way to make them into a winning hand.
61. The underlined sentence is mentioned to __________.
A. explain when to use it B. lead to the writer’s opinion
C. show how often people use it D. offer an excuse for the failure
62. Why did the writer fail to achieve his dream in his teen years
A. He set big goals. B. He didn’t’ take action.
C. He was in a poor country. D. He gave up easily.
63. The underlined word “Unwilling” in Paragraph 5 means __________.
A. Refusing B. Hoping C. Agreeing D. Forgetting
64. From the passage, we can know the writer __________.
A. won a scholarship in Japan B. kept fighting for his dream
C. earned a lot by his website D. often got help from others
65. What does the writer want to tell us
A. Chances never knock twice.
B. Failure is the mother of success.
C. The more you want, the less you’ll get.
D. The weak wait for chances, the strong create them
C
Have you ever been in a conversation that you wish you could run away from Scientists have shown that you might not be alone.
A research team surveyed 806 people about a recent conversation they had with someone close to them. They were asked about the actual length and their expected length of the conversation, and how long they thought the other person wanted to talk for.
About one-third of the conversation length was unwanted. Also, more people believed that they wanted to end the conversation first. They kept talking for about 4 minutes before they realized that the other speaker wished the same thing. Situations are similar when it comes to strangers. Only about 1. 6 percent of the conversations really ended when both sides wanted to.
The survey pointed out that when people talked to strangers, what made people hide their feelings may be their politeness. When talking to close friends and family, it may be their kindness as ending the chat too soon may hurt the other’s feelings.
So, ★ Saying the exact time you can talk at the beginning is a good way. “Conversations don’t end because people don’t know when the other person wants to go,” Adam Mastroianni who led the study said. You should make your partner feel good about the end of the chat by “clearly expressing that you had a nice time and would like to talk again”.
However, in some ways, this dilemma (困境) may not be a bad thing. People need social connections, and conversation is a good way to make these connections happen.
66. The research team asked the people about their __________.
A. favorite conversation topics B. ways of ending a talk
C. expected length of a conversation D. opinions about chatting
67. People fail to end a talk with strangers probably because of __________.
A. politeness B. patience C. kindness D. shyness
6&. Which of the following can be put in ★
A. what can we talk about in a chat B. how can we end a conversation
C. why should we end a talk in time D. when should we end a conversation
69. According to Paragraph 5, which is a proper way to end a talk
A. It’s time to end the talk.
B. Your friends are waiting for you.
C. Nice talking to you, but I have to go now.
D. I’m very tired of talking with you for so long.
70. The best title for the passage would be __________.
A. Caught in A Talk B. You Are not Alone
C. Showing Politeness D. End a Talk as You Want

一、评分原则
评分时,先根据短文的内容、语言和思维逻辑以及写作规范初步判定其所属档次,然后根据该档次的具体要求来确定或调整档次,最后给分。这一原则也称之为整体评分或印象评分。
评分时,应关注的短文内容为:内容要点表达的清楚程度、完整性及合理性。
评分时,应关注的短文语言和思维逻辑为:运用词汇和语法结构的准确性及上下文语意的连贯或完整性。
评分时,应关注的短文写作规范为:词数不少于60词,拼写和标点符号符合写作规范 (英、美拼写及词汇用法均视为符合要求) ,如书写较差,以致影响交际 (认读和理解) ,建议将分数降低一个档次。
先根据整体印象定档,然后再根据以下档次打分 (特别是语法类的错误按照种类,而不是按照错误个数扣分。特别注意:1. 人称,非第一人称先扣3分;2. 主体时态为一般过去时态,时态错误,扣3分;3. 一种意思多种表达均可;4. 连接词的运用;5. 单词拼写、固定搭配等一般3个错误扣1分) 。做到给分有理、扣分有据! 谨慎给满分; 6分以下的四档、五档的能给分的尽量给, 鼓励学生动笔。
二、档次的判定
英语书面表达题的评判一般把学生写作的短文分为五个档次。
第一档次: (13~15分)
短文能呈现所有内容要点,写出的句子语意表达清楚、合理且基本无错误。
第二档次: (10~12分)
短文能呈现绝大部分内容要点,写出的句子语意表达清楚且无严重错误,有少数单词拼写错误。
第三档次: (7~9分)
短文能呈现大部分内容要点,写出的句子虽然有语法错误但能表达基本信息,有较多的单词拼写错误。
第四档次: (4~6分)
短文包含部分内容要点,写出的句子有较严重的语法错误,表达的意思也不清楚,有较多的单词拼写错误。
第五档次: (1~3分)
短文包含少量内容要点,写出的句子有严重语法错误,基本不能表达语意,或只写出几个关键词。
注意:
如短文出现以下情况:未能传递任何信息;内容太少,无法评判;所写内容均与题目要求内容无关或所写内容无法看清,默写的课文或者抄写的试卷内容的,建议判零分。
