Katie always knew she wanted to be a performer. She was fond of Disney movies from an early age and would often sing along with her mom, Karen.
When Katie was nine years old, her happy childhood took a turn when her mother was diagnosed with cancer. When the doctor informed the Whetsell family that Keren's disease was terminal, they made a decision. Disney World had been a longtime dream vacation for Karen. So in November 1997, the family packed up and headed to Disney World. Katie says she'll never forget the moment that changed her life on that trip: After a long day at the parks, the Whetsells decided to see one of Disney World's many nightly light shows. While watching, a Disney cast member performing in the parade came up to her mom and rested her hand on Karen's shoulder. They exchanged smiles and, to this day, Katie remembered how at peace her mom looked. The whole family was touched and moved to tears. This was the day Katie decided she wanted to work for Disney.
After graduating from college, Katie went on to pursue performing for a living. She struggled for years, working as a waitress and trying to make it as an actor. Her hard work and passion finally paid off when she was hired to work on Disney Cruise Lines in 2009. Katie's favorite

It's amazing to be able to comfort others.\" When asked what her mother would think of her working at Disney World, she takes a deep breath and allows the tears to flow. \"I just feel like she'd be so proud.

early last year, as a result of warmer winter temperatures. The Woodland Trust, which runs the Nature's Calendar scheme, warns that many species are losing their seasonal cues (提示)as winters warm and seasons shift.
Increasingly unstable weather could tempt some animals out of hibernation (冬眠)too soon, only to be hit by sharply dropping temperatures. And some birds appeared to be breeding too late to make the most of vital food sources that appear earlier than normal, the Trust said.
Lorienne Whittle, at the Woodland Trust, said, \"It seems that last year we almost lost winter as a season — it was much milder and our data shows wildlife is responding, potentially putting many at risk.\"
And she said, \"It appears that some species are able to adapt to the advancing spring better than others. Oak trees respond by producing their first leaves earlier and caterpillars seem to be keeping pace. But blue tits, great tits and pied flycatchers are struggling to react in time for their chicks to take advantage of the peak amount of caterpillars— the food source on which they depend.\"
Active newts were recorded in late December in Cheshire and a blackbird was spotted building a nest at the beginning of January. Accordingly, a report for The Wildlife Trusts suggested that hedgerows (树篱)be protected from being cut during the nesting season. 28. What does the underlined word “tempt\" in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. help.
B. attract.
C. guide.
D. threaten.
29. Why are oak trees mentioned in the text?
A. To explain why plants respond to the climate change. B. To prove some species fit in with the climate change better. C. To show how caterpillars react to the changing environment. D. To suggest plants adapt to warmer winters better than animals. 30. How is the text mainly developed?
A. By listing environmental damages. C. By making striking comparisons. 31. What can be the best title of the passage?
A. Warmer winters: Wildlife under threat B. A practical scheme: Protection under way

B. By offering practical suggestions. D. By presenting tracking results.

Schools are under constant pressure to make budget cuts, and music programs are often first on the chopping block. However; a recent study from the University of British Columbia in Canada has shown that students who took music lessons in high school performed better in subjects such as English, science, and math.
The researchers collected data from over 100,000 students at public high schools across the province of British Columbia. Some of them took music lessons during high school while others never attended them. Checking the test scores of students who took music classes with those of their peers, the study found that the musicians got higher grades in a range of different school subjects.
Research like this has been done before, but as for the number of respondents, this study is much larger, and it took into account other factors that may have affected the results. For example, perhaps students who took music classes were encouraged to do so because they already had good grades. This UBC study rules out a number of other factors that could explain why music students performed better academically; and the researchers still find a clear effect of music lessons on academic performance.
Not only did music students perform better than non-musicians, but students who played an instrument did even better than those who sang. “Learning to play a musical instrument and playing in an ensemble(乐团)is very rewarding/ says Martin Guhn, one of the researchers, \"A student can learn to read music notes, achieve eye-hand-mind coordination, develop keen listening skills and establish interpersonal relationships.\"
What this study doesn't tell us, though, is why music makes these students perform better academically, but the research paper mentions a few possible explanations. Music practice is linked with neurological(神经系统的)changes that improves certain brain functions, affecting memory and planning skills. Besides, there is a possible motivational factor. Students who take music lessons see a tangible result from practice—they get better—and they might apply that to their other work. And the non-competitive team aspect of making music together could strengthen students' social development, which would also help them in other alias.

33. How is the recent study different from previous ones?
A. It covered more school subjects. B. It allowed for students who sang. C. It was carried out nationwide. D. It produced a more convincing result.
34. Why did the author mention Martin Guhn's words in Paragraph 4?
A. To speak highly of music students.
B. To explain why music helps students perform better. C. To present the benefits of playing instruments. D. To encourage students to join an ensemble. 35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Music practice can make an overall improvement in students' brain. B. Progress made in music may motivate students to work harder in math. C. Singing can't make any difference in improving students’ memory. D. Playing in an orchestra could make students less competitive in other fields. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)

Social media, magazines and shop windows bombard people daily with things to buy, and British consumers are buying more clothes and shoes than ever before. In Britain, the average person spends more than £1,000 on new clothes a year, which is around tour percent of their income. 36 But it hides two far more worrying trends for society and for the environment. First, a lot of that consumer spending is via credit cards. British people currently owe approximately £670 per adult to credit card companies. That's 66 percent of the average wardrobe budget. Also, not only are people spending money they don't have, they're using it to buy things they don't need. 37 People might not realise they are part of the disposable clothing problem because they donate their unwanted clothes to charities. 38 Huge quantities end up being thrown away, and a lot

of clothes that charities can't sell are sent abroad, causing even more economic and environmental problems.
39 The idea originated in Canada in the early 1990s and then moved to the US, where it became a rejection of the overspending and overconsumption of Black Friday and Cyber Monday during Thanksgiving weekend. 40 Throughout the year. Buy Nothing groups organize the exchange and repair of items they already own. They send a clear message to companies that people are no longer willing to accept the environmental and human cost of overconsumption. A. ‘Fast fashion' goes out of fashion as quickly as it came in and is often too poor quality to recycle;
B. Britain throws away 300,000 tons of clothing a year, most of which goes into landfill sites. C. The British people are deeply shocked by the unexpected statistics.
D. On Buy Nothing Day people organize various types of protests and cut up their credit cards. E. However, a 'buy nothing' trend is springing up in opposition to consumerism. F.
That might not sound like much.
G. But charity shops can't sell all those unwanted clothes. 第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)
