22．（8分） Brisbane is an exciting city, voted as one of the most liveable cities in Australia. Its fine food will make you hate to leave. Here are four famous restaurants.

Aria

For a fine dining experience in Brisbane, it is hard to go past Aria by award winning well-known chef Matt Moran. With a beautiful setting at the Eagle Street Pier overlooking the Brisbane River, Aria is all about beautifully presented food. This is what Alia differs from other restaurants. The menu here is seasonal with different lunch and dinner options, and prices are set depending on how many courses you choose.

Bavarian Bier Café

There are lots of fantastic restaurants that overlook the Brisbane River and the Story Bridge. A big favorite is the Bavarian Bier Café where you can enjoy amazing German food, with big cups of Bavarian beer to drink and cookies to go with it. Prices are quite reasonable and the views are some of the best you’ll get in Brisbane.

E’cco Bistro

Set in an old tea warehouse building, E’cco Bistro has been serving up amazing food in Brisbane for over 20 years. E’cco Bistro is run by chef Philip Johnson who focuses on using the best local produce to create dishes where the materials do the talking. The menu has a good variety of dishes at reasonable prices, with dishes such as lobsters with sweet and sour onions, carrot, mushroom.

The Plough Inn

Plough Inn is one of the best pubs to go to for food in Brisbane. No matter when you come in, it is sure to satisfy all of your appetite. Pub dining is huge in Brisbane and the dining experience has moved away from the basic pub bugs of old, now offering extensive menus with restaurant quality food. The pub atmosphere is still there however, and the food is generally still cheap, plentiful and not too fancy. 1、What makes the food served by Aria special? A．Its taste.

Crossing your legs is an extremely common habit，which most people always ignore. While you may find 23．（8分）it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.

A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure，because the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart, and crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. Certainly, you won’t feel any immediate effects, but you shouldn’t have your legs crossed for more than 15 minutes.

Crossing your legs can also lead to neck and back pain. When you sit with your legs crossed, your hips are in a twisted position. Not only does it cause one of your pelvic bones to rotate but also adds pressure on your lower and middle back and neck. So ideally it’s best for our bodies to sit with our feet planted flat, hip width apart, on the floor.

Moreover, your feet and legs might get painful or have the feeling of being asleep when you cross your legs for long periods of time. Since the veins and nerves are pressed, it can cause numbness and/or temporary paralysis in the legs, ankles, or feet. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.

So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run. 1、Which problem won’t sitting with your legs crossed cause? A．Increased blood pressure B．Neck and back pain C．Numbness D．Curving legs

2、How soon can we benefit from sitting with both of our feet on the floor? A．In less than 15 minutes B．Only in a minute or two C．For quite a long time D．In a month 3、Where is the text likely to be selected from？

B．Bavarian Bier Café D．The Plough Inn

A．A fiction B．A piece of newspaper C．A textbook D．A journal of medicine

24．（8分） We can video chat with astronauts aboard the International Space Station and watch live footage from the frozen heights of Everest. But communicating with a submarine (潜艇）or a diver is not so easy. The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists. The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water. Sonar (声呐）signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air.

Now，researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. “What we’ve shown is that it’s actually feasible to communicate from underwater to the air,\" says Fadel Adib，a professor at MJT’ s Media Lab，who led the research.

The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface, making vibrations (震动)corresponding to the ls and Os of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations. The researchers call the system TARF. It has any number of potential real-world uses, Adib says. It could be used to find downed planes underwater by reading signals from sonar devices in a plane' s black box and it could allow submarines to communicate with the surface.

Right now the technology is low-resolution. The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet. The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions—high waves, storms， schools of fish. They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction— air to water.

If the technology proves successful in real-world conditions, expect “texting while diving” to be the latest underwater fashion.

1、What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 1? A．The future of video chat underwater and in air. B．The frustrations of developing underwater devices. C．The difficulty of communication from water to air. D．The current situation of communicating with a submarine. 2、What does the underlined word “feasible” mean? A．Achievable. C．Changeable.

3、What do we know about TARF? A．It is widely used to find downed planes.

B．Convenient. D．Alternative.

B．It can work well at great depths underwater. C．It is an underwater machine that sends signals. D．It can send，receive and read signals from underwater. 4、What is the best title for the text? A．The Real-world Uses of Sonar Technology B．Full Water-to-air Communication Closer to Reality C．A Breakthrough in the Application of Video Chat D．TARF Becoming a New Means of Communication 25．（10分）Living Music in the Home

26．（30分） I won’t forget my voluntary experience a while back. It always reminds me what people truly need is not always so 1 . This story is a lesson which has stayed with me and helped me ever since. It was Thanksgiving and I was volunteering with my mother at a 2 for the needy. We stood behind the counter 3 food to whoever came in. It seemed that most of our diners had been having 4 times. Their clothes were ragged, worn and dry; they were hungry and tired. 5 , they looked needy!

When we were busy with the unlucky fellows, a well-dressed man came in who looked 6 but poor. I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw dropped in 7 when he joined the line for food. The closer he came to my service station, the more I muttered. What was this man doing? I wanted to know. Surely he wasn’t going to take the food 8 for those really in need! He had small talks with 9 and the look on his face suggested that he just wished to 10 being alone.

Then my mother 11 took me to one side, saying, “You have 12 that the needs of the people who come here must be purely 13 : hunger, inadequate shelter, clothing, etc. But this gentleman seems to have none of those problems. What if his needs are emotional? What if he needs 14 , friends, or just to be among other human beings?” Her words 15 me like a ton of bricks! I felt like I should apologize to the man, but I didn’t.

About a week later, from an 16 source, the shelter received a large donation. I can’t help but 17 if it came from that man.

Now, whenever I meet others, I remember my mother’s words and try to send kindness and blessings to them, 18 how they look. Needs aren’t always visible. Maybe emotional 19 is not only the loneliest feeling, but the most difficult need to get 20 .

第二节 书面表达（满分25分） 29、Dear Peter,

I’m writing to invite you to participate in an extracurricular activity that will start soon in our school.

It’s to work on a small farm where students can grow flowers and vegetables. When you work on it after class, you will not only experience the pleasure of staying close to nature but also enjoy the rewards of your hard work in future. Besides, with more chances to communicate with Chinese students, you can improve your oral Chinese and also make some good friends. I am planning to join in it, hoping that we can work together on the farm.

If you want to know more details, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with me. I am looking forward to your reply. Yours, Li Hua
