Here are the books that often appear on high-school reading lists for 12th-grade students, and are often discussed in greater depth in college literature courses.
The Seagull
By Anton Chekhov
The book is a scene-of-life read set in the Russian countryside at the end of the 19th century. All characters are dissatisfied with their lives. Some want love. Some want success. No one, however, ever seems to get happiness. Some people view The Seagull as a tragic (悲剧的) play about always unhappy people. Others see it as a humorous and bitter book, making fun of humans’ foolishness.
Candide
By Voltaire
Voltaire offers his view of society in Candide. The book was published in 1759, and it is often considered the author’s most important work. A simple-minded young man, Candide is sure his world is the best of all worlds, but a trip around the world opens his eyes about what he believes to be true.
Jane Eyre
By Charlotte Bronte
Charlotte Bronte’s heroine was one of the first in English literature to serve as a first-person narrator (讲述者) of her own life story. Jane finds love with a rich man, Rochester, but in her own terms, only after he has proven himself worthy of her.
The Bluest Eye
By Toni Morrison
Toni Morrison’s novel tells the tragic story of Pecola Breedlove, an African American girl from an abusive home. Eleven-year-old Pecola equates beauty and social acceptance with whiteness: she therefore longs to have “the bluest eye”.

“Animal Control. How can I help you ” a deep voice ran through the phone receiver.
Earlier that morning. I’d been on my way to meet a friend for breakfast. Driving down a long stretch of road that connected two neighborhoods, there was nothing but tall trees and grassy areas. Then, I caught sight of a furry brown, black and white tail moving in the wind on the side of the road.
Throughout breakfast, I couldn’t get the animal off my mind. I named him Fluffy. Perhaps it was someone’s loving cat or dog. Maybe a fox I wasn’t sure. But it might be wounded and needed help. I called Animal Control.
The next day, I was curious to find out if Animal Control had found sweet Fluffy, so I called for an update. The same gentleman told me that he drove by the area but didn’t see any sign of an animal. I hung up the phone, feeling relieved.
I grabbed my purse and headed out the door. I had a full day ahead of me. Feeling good, I turned on the radio in my car and started singing along at the top of my lungs—until I saw Fluffy! There he was, farther down the road, half behind some brush with his tail sticking out and moving.
I eased my way into a parking space, and dialed Animal Control once again. I promised to meet the man the location where I last saw the animal.
About ten minutes later, the township Animal Control truck pull up behind my car. I pointed to the brush. To take a better look, the man walked toward Fluffy. When he came back, he laughed so heartily that I thought: How rude! Then he showed me Fluffy”, “Meet Fluffy, a 100-percent-cotton pompom (绒球) cap!”
My face must have been as red as his red polo shirt. Fluffy was a hat!
24. Why did the author call Animal Control that morning
A. To ask for directions. B. To find a lost pet.
C. To report a troubled animal. D. To call for a weather update.
25. Which best describes the author
A. Socially-disadvantaged. B. Aggressive.
C. Light-hearted. D. Sympathetic.
26. How would the man feel when he showed Fluffy to the author
A. He felt really offended.
B. He’s highly amused by the incident.
C. He felt slightly awkward about the result.
D. He hugely relieved to see her happy again.
27. What is the purpose of the text
A. To share a fun experience.
B. To promote wildlife protection.
C. To recommend a government worker.
D. To introduce a chance encounter with Fluffy.
C
About a year and a half ago, Patrick Doherty found out he had a rare, but disastrous inherited disease—known as transthyretin amyloidosis—that had killed his father. A misshapen protein was building up in his body, destroying important tissues. Victims of this disease often die a difficult death.
So Doherty was thrilled when he found out that doctors were testing a new way to try to treat amyloidosis. The approach used a revolutionary gene-editing technique called CRISPR, which allows scientists to make very precise changes in DNA. On Saturday, researchers reported the first data indicating that the experimental treatment worked, causing levels of the destructive protein to decrease in Doherty’s body.
CRISPR has already been shown to help some patients. And doctors are trying to use it to treat cancer and to restore vision to people blinded by a rare genetic disorder. But those experiments involve taking cells out of the body, editing them in the lab, and putting them back in or injecting CRISPR directly into cells that need fixing.
The study Doherty volunteered for is the first in which doctors are simply putting the gene-editor directly into patients and letting it find its own way to the right gene in the right cells. In this case, it’s cells in the liver making the destructive protein.
“It really is exciting,” says Dr. Julian Gillmore, who is leading the study at the University College London, Royal Free Hospital. “This has the potential to completely revolutionize the outcome for these patients who have lived with this disease in their family for many generations.”
The patients will have to be followed longer, and more patients will have to be treated, to make sure the treatment’s safe, and determine how much it’s helping. Gillmore stresses.
The promising results potentially open the door for using the same approach to treatment of many other, more common diseases for which taking cells out of the body or directly injecting CRISPR isn’t realistic, including heart disease and brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
28. Why is Patrick Doherty mentioned in the text
A. To prove a new treatment worked well.
B. To show how CRISPR was carried out.
C. To provide background information of CRISPR.
D. To introduce a disease requiring urgent attention.
29. What is special about the study Doherty volunteered for
A. It’s the first gene-editing experiment.
B. CRISPR was injected into the liver cells.
C. Doherty’s cells were taken out of his body.
D. Gene-editors were put directly into the patient.
30. What does Dr. Julian Gillmore think of the results of the study
A. It holds great promise. B. It’s far from satisfactory.
C. It won’t bring about any danger. D. It should be put into use immediately.
31. What’s the last paragraph talking about
A. Faults of CRISPR. B. Results of the study.
C. Prospects of the study. D. Applications of CRISPR.
D
Most of us are familiar with the concept of six degrees of separation—the idea is that anyone in the planet can be connected to anyone else in just six steps. But is there actually any science to back up this commonly cited theory
If you just take a look at the following numbers, the six degrees of separation idea seems pretty plausible. Assuming everyone knows at least 44 people, and that each of those people knows an entirely new 44 people, and so on, the math shows that in just six steps everyone could be connected to 446, or 7.26 billion people—more than are alive on Earth today.
But this idea wasn’t scientifically tested until the 1960s, when a psychologist sent 300 packages out to people in Nebraska and Boston, and asked them to use their networks to get them back to one specific target—a stockbroker (股票经纪人) living in Boston. They weren’t asked to forward it to him directly, but to send it to someone they knew on a first name basis, with instructions for that person to forward it on to someone in their network that they thought might know the stockbroker.
Only 64 of those packages actually reached the target, with an average path length of just 5.2 intermediary (中间人) connections, and this experiment was used as evidence for six degrees of separation, or the “small world phenomenon”, as the researcher called it.
But Derek Muller, a researcher, dug a little deeper, and found that, of the original 300 packages, 100 were sent to people already living in Boston (where the target also lives) and 100 were sent to stockbrokers who shared a profession with the target, so there were really only 100 purely random packages sent out. And of those 100, only 18 made it back to the target. “So we’re talking about a sample size of 18—that’s all the evidence there was for six degrees of separation,” Derek explains.
32. What does the underlined word “plausible” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Reasonable. B. Absurd. C. Unbelievable. D. Original.
33. How were the subjects expected to get the package to the target in the experiment
A. By entrusting the delivery to 5.2 intermediaries.
B. By delivering it in person as quickly as possible.
C. By passing it on to the target in the shortest time.
D. By forwarding it in the shortest intermediary-chain.
34. What can be inferred from Dereck’s remark
A. The concept didn’t exist at all.
B. The experiment provided solid evidence.
C. The sample size was too small to be useful.
D. The experiment was carried out scientifically.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. How to Play Six Degrees of Separation in Our Real Life
B. Six Degrees of Separation: An Theory Founded by Derek
C. Are We Really All Connected by Six Degrees of Separation
D. Six Degrees of Separation: Scientists Find a Smaller Number

Overcoming obstacles (障碍物) to cooking at home often starts with changing the way you view meal preparation or time spent in the kitchen. 36 what can we do about them Read on to get some ideas.
“I don’t have the time to cook.”

“I’m too tired to cook at the end of a busy day.”
39 . One trick is to make meals in quantity and freeze leftovers in single portions to eat when you don’t have the time or energy to cook.
“I don’t know how to cook.”
If you’re scared by the prospect of preparing a home-cooked meal, it’s important to remember that cooking is not an exact science. 40 . Besides, as with anything, the more you cook, the better you’ll become.
Change our perspectives and way of doing things, preparing meals will neither be something that we don’t have time for, nor something that’s only suitable for experienced cooks.
A. But that’s rarely the case
B. How to eat healthy when you are busy
C. But there are plenty of ways to speed things up
D. What are the reasons stopping us from cooking at home
E. Cook more and you’ll soon master some quick, healthy meals

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was invited to a cookout on an old friend’s farm in western Washington. I parked my car outside the farm and walked past a milking house which had apparently not been used in many years. A noise at a window caught my attention, so I entered it. It was a hummingbird (蜂鸟), desperately trying to escape. She was covered in spider-webs (蛛网) and barely able to move her wings. She ceased her struggle the instant I picked her up.
With the bird in my cupped hand, I looked around to see how she gotten in. The broken window glass was the likely answer. I stuffed a piece of cloth into the hole and took her outside, closing the door securely behind me.
When I opened my hand, the bird did not fly away; she sat looking at me with her bright eyes. I removed the sticky spider-webs that covered her head and wings. Still she made no attempt to fly. Perhaps she had been struggling against the window too long and was too tired Or too thirsty
As I carried her up the blackberry-lined path toward my car where I kept a water bottle, she began to move. I stopped, and she soon took wing but did not immediately fly away.
Hovering (悬停), she approached within six inches of my face. For a long moment, this tiny creature looked into my eyes, turning her head from side to side. Then she flew quickly out of sight.
During the cookout, I told my hosts about the hummingbird incident. They promised to fix the window. As I was departing, my friends walked me to my car. I was standing by the car when a hummingbird flew to the center of our group and began hovering. She turned from person to person until she came to me. She again looked directly into my eyes, then let out a squeaking call and was gone. For a moment, all were speechless. Then someone said, “She must have come to say good-bye.”
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
A few weeks later, I went to the farm again.I was just about to leave when the hummingbird appeared.

第四部分 写作
Dear Ryan,
I’m Li Hua from Class 3. I think it’s not a good idea to randomly pair up students for the spoken English training after class. The reasons are as follows.
To begin with, randomly pairing up students may lead to unbalanced language abilities within the groups. This can hinder the progress of students as the more advanced one may dominate the conversation, leaving little room for the other students to improve. Besides, students may feel uncomfortable or less motivated if paired with someone who they don’t get along with or have difficulty communicating with.
My suggestion is to group students based on their language abilities or to let students choose their own partners. This way, everyone can feel more comfortable practicing and improving their spoken English together.
Thank you for considering my suggestion.

A few weeks later, I went to the form again. As my car neared it my thoughts drifted back to the moment when I rescued the humming bird from the spider’s web. I rushed back to the deserted house. It was a great comfort that the original hole in the window was nowhere to be found. Leaving the house, I couldn’t help wondering how it was getting on now. Had it managed to find its way back home, or was it still out there somewhere struggling to survive
I was just about to leave when the humming bird appeared. A flash of movement caught my attention. I turned around to see the same humming bird hovering in the air. It seemed that the bird was waiting for me, its beady eyes locked on mine as if trying to convey some deep, unspoken gratitude. I felt a surge of relief and awe at the sight of this sound and grateful creature, and I knew that I would always cherish the memories we shared as I climbed into my car and drove away.
