When tea and coffee was first introduced to Europe in 18th century, people thought that they were harmfully．So the king of Sweden decided to find out whether this was true or not．It happened that there had two brothers who were in prison at the time．The king ordered one of them drink tea every day and the other coffee．Both of them live many years without any problem．At last the one who had drank tea every day died at the age of 83 and the others one lived even long．Because of this, Sweden is today one of the countries that many people enjoy drinking tea and coffee．

The child of today owes much of its pleasant school life to the work of Maria Montessori and others who felt as she did．
Maria Montessori was born in 1870 in northern Italy． Both her parents were well educated．
While Maria was a student, she took great interest in the study of the particular nature of the child's mind． It came to her that small children should have freedom to learn．

Maria Montessori was one of the world's great teachers．She traveled in Europe, America and Far East．She thought that true education, providing(提供) for the real needs of the child, would produce wise and happy grown-ups and therefore a peaceful world． Her original way of education has changed our whole idea of what childhood is．
Maria Montessori died in Holland at the age of eighty-two．

Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed． When a person does a certain thing again, he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly, then a habit is formed． Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of． It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits． Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live． Older persons also form bad habits lasting as long as they live, and sometimes become ruined by them．
There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help． Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and so on．
Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on．These are all easily formed habits．Unfortunately older persons often form habits which could have been avoided ．
We should keep away from all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will be good for ourselves and others．
________ are formed little by little．
| A．Good habits |
| B．Bad habits |
| C．Both good habits and bad habits |
| D．Either good habits or bad habits |
The underlined word "them" in the first paragraph refers to ________．
| A．bad habits |
| B．good habits |
| C．children |
| D．other persons． |
Why should we pay much attention to the formation of habits?
| A．Because habits are of great help to every one of us． |
| B．Because a man can never get rid of a habit． |
| C．Because it's hard and sometimes even impossible to throw away bad habits． |
| D．Because we are forced to do them again and again． |
According to the passage, early rising ________．
| A．has something to do with success |
| B．is an easily formed habit |
| C．is such a habit as should have been avoided |
| D．is such a habit as will be kept |

‘I’m pleased to say that 2015 is our third year sponsoring the IATEFL information desk．This year, we are running three workshops covering some of the key areas of our wide-ranging special skills: testing, editing and vocabulary．We how to see you.’
—— Russell Whitehead Director
Vocabulary testing: why, what and how? By Felicity O’ Dell & Russell Whitehead
Saturday 11th April 3:50-4:35 pm Charter 4
Should vocabulary be one of the language features that we test and, if so, why? What vocabulary - and what aspects of vocabulary - should we focus on in our tests? What methods can we use to test vocabulary?
We will discuss answers to these questions, considering the strengths and weaknesses of different types of vocabulary test for different teaching contexts.
There’s something missing from your project - the editor! By David Baker & Fiona MacKenzie
Sunday 12 April 10:25-11:10 am Charter 8
Big publishing companies no longer offer the single route to publication．Whether you are self-publishing, a teaching institution developing its own materials, or a digital start-up, in a highly competitive environment it isn’t enough to write something and just put it out there.
Quality still matters - you can’t afford to forget one of the key roles in successful publishing.
Vocabulary levels: which words are at which level? By Stephen Bullon
Monday 13th April 1:35-2:20 pm Charter 8
While students develop their competence in the four skills and in their ability to master grammatical structures, they are together building their vocabulary.

Directions：Read the following three passages．Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements．For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
Friends and fellow citizens：I stand before you tonight under accusation of the unproven crime of having voted at the last presidential election, without having a lawful right to vote．It shall be my work this evening to prove to you that in thus voting, I not only committed no crime, but, instead, simply exercised my citizen's rights, guaranteed to me and all United States citizens by the National Constitution(宪法), beyond the power of any state to deny.
Our democratic-republican government is based on the idea of the natural right of every individual member to a voice and a vote in making and executing the laws．We declare the duty of government to be to secure the people in the enjoyment of their unchallengeable right．We throw to the winds the belief that government can give right.
‘All men are created equal, and gifted by their Creator with certain undeniable rights．Among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness．To secure these, governments are established among men, gaining their just powers from the agreement of the governed.’
Here is no shadow of government authority over rights, or exclusion of any class from their full and equal enjoyment．Here is pronounced the right of all men, and ‘therefore,’ as the Quaker minister said, ‘of all women,’ to a voice in the government．And here, in this first paragraph of the Declaration, is the declaration of the natural right of all to the vote; for how can ‘the agreement of the governed’ be given, if the right to vote be denied?
The introduction of the Federal(联邦的) Constitution says: ‘We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic peacefulness, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity(子嗣), do establish this Constitution for the United States of America.’
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; not we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union．And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people - women as well as men．And it is absolute ridicule to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government - the vote.The speaker was standing in front of the audience to ________.
| A．accuse the government of having denied treating her unfairly |
| B．fight for the legal right to vote in the United States as a woman |
| C．share a recent victory on voting for the president of the States |
| D．guarantee that they could better understand the National Constitution |
The expression ‘throw to the winds’ (Paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to ‘________’.
| A．abandon |
| B．emphasize |
| C．shake |
| D．spread |
Which of the following statements is true according to the speech?
| A．The Quaker minister holds conflicting opinions on women’s right to vote． |
| B．Government authority has the right to bar some of the governed out of liberty. |
| C．The policy is undeniably adopted that all the governed in America have the equal rights． |
| D．There’s no way to the real agreement of the governed if women’s vote right is robbed. |
It can be inferred from the speech that ________.
| A．it’s more important to have liberty than have good wishes of it |
| B．the Federal Constitution comes from the National Constitution |
| C．it’s ridiculous that women enjoy liberty while their rights are not secured |
| D．racial and gender issues are among the major social problems of the USA |
Which of the following might be the best title of the speech?
| A．For the Sake of Liberty and Happiness |
| B．Vote on the Women’s Rights |
| C．In the Name of Equal Right to vote |
| D．Power of American Constitution |
Directions：Read the following three passages．Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements．For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
Death is a serious theme worthy of great poets．For example, John Keats’s ‘When I Have Fears That I May Cease to Be’ and John Donne’s ‘Death, Be Not Proud’ both discuss death in reflective ways．However, the imagery(意象) in these poems shows that while Keats believes that death can only destroy, Donne believes that death can be overcome.
Keats is afraid of death, because to him death means the loss of those things that make his life worth living: ‘On the shore/ of the wide world I stand alone, and think/ Till Love and Fame to nothingness do sink.’ Earlier in the poem, Keats says that he hopes this ‘Love’ will be a ‘high romance’ with a ‘fair creature.’ He also says that he hopes the ‘Fame’ he seeks will be the result of the ‘high piled books’ produced by his ‘crowded brain.’ In other words, Keats’s fear is that death is a ‘nothingness’ that will arrive before he can finish his life’s work or find his true love.
Donne has a different attitude toward death, and so the imagery in his poem is different, too．To Donne, death should ‘be not proud,’ because it is not ‘mighty and dreadful.’ Unlike Keats, Donne sees death as weak and merely a ‘slave to Fate, chance, kings, and desperate men.’ He also says that death is like ‘rest and sleep’．Donne believes that we will all wake from the sleep of death to everlasting life, just as we wake from our normal sleep to our everyday lives．In fact, Donne believes that it is death itself that will die: ‘One short sleep past, we wake forever,/ And Death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die.’
Keats and Donne both know that death is a prat of life, and both poets use powerful imagery to talk about that difficult theme．The differences in this imagery show two very different attitudes toward the subject, one of which is much more positive than the other．Which poet to believe is up to the reader to decide.
Not surprisingly, the readers’ own experiences may play a part in the way they respond to these poets’ approaches．Like the two poets and their beliefs, contemporary readers also may be divided on the subject．This may explain why Keats’s and Donne’s poetry remains fascinating years after their won deaths.According to the passage, ________ makes Keats’s life worth living.
| A．expressing his grand passion for poetry |
| B．walking on the shore with a pretty lady |
| C．defeating nothingness with his true love |
| D．pursuing the fame of being a romantic poet |
In Donne’s poems he believes that death is ________ .
| A．generally powerful and terrible |
| B．only a ceaseless sleep |
| C．merely the loss of work and love |
| D．hardly worth the fear |
Contemporary readers may view the two poets’ serious subject differently because ________.
| A．they are attracted to the two poets’ everlasting opposite beliefs |
| B．they are divided naturally by their positive or negative personalities |
| C．their own life experiences affect the understandings of the poems |
| D．their preferences for the poets’ strong imageries are various |
Which of the following best describes the main writing style of the passage?
| A．Analysis． |
| B．Argument． |
| C．Comparison． |
| D．Reasoning. |

At 1:30 p.m．on March 31, 1981, John Hinckley Jr．stepped from a crowd of onlookers and tried to kill Ronald Reagan, the president of the United States．Although he failed, he did cause injury to the president．The crime was committed in clear view of many people．__________, at the end of his trial, Hinckley was found not _________ by reason of insanity(精神失常)．Instead of prison, Hinckley was sent to a mental hospital, where he remains.
The judgment in Hinckley’s case did more than annoy a few people．It ______ a nationwide debate about whether people accused of a crime can claim they were insane when they did it．If they were capable of _______ and then committing a crime, how could they later claim to have been insane? One starting point is to identify what insane means in a U.S．court of law.
Very young children cannot be ______ if they do not know right from wrong, because they cannot be held morally responsible for their actions．For most people, moral responsibility comes with age and maturity．Psychologists, however, say that there are some adults who cannot recognize right from wrong．Since these adults cannot tell the ______, they should not be held morally responsible for their actions．In a U.S．court of law, an adult like this may be considered insane．Hinckley was judged insane because _______ determined that his mind was not functioning like a(n) _______ adult’s so he had no idea what he was doing．Instead of spending the rest of his life in prison, Hinckley would be committed to a mental hospital, where he could be treated for his illness.
People who are against the use of an insanity defense say that criminals like Hinckley do know what they are doing．_____ of the insanity defense say that everyone who commits a serous crime like Hinckley’s could be said to be mentally ill．Otherwise, the person would not commit the crime _______．There are many people who struggle with severe mental illness who do not commit crimes．The illnesses should not be used as a(n) ______ for violent behavior.

Directions：Complete the following passage by using the words in the box．Each word can only be used once．Note that there is one word more than you need.
When young people begin to live independently, home-hunting can involve some stress．But they would do well to remember that a new is available - micro-homes.
Fondly called ‘tiny houses,’ these houses have all living necessities in a small package, including kitchen, bedroom and bathroom．Generally under 50 square meters, most tiny houses just one or two people though some claim the space for more．What’s lost in size is not lost in design as these homes are often quite unique and modern in design.
Besides an attractive appearance, tiny houses can also unique practical features．Making the best of urban space, the 72-to 122-centimeter-wide Keret House in Warsaw, the world’s narrowest home, filled in an alley(小巷)．The sample home Ecocapsule uses solar power, wind power and rainwater collection to enable its owner to live practically anywhere．A system of rails allows the DALE micro-home to
room size and number as well as adding the option of an open or
courtyard.
As visually as micro-homes are, there are a few disadvantages to consider before getting comfortable on a minicouch．Moving into a tiny house requires the
of most non-essentials, no matter the emotional connection to them．Guests will also mostly be out of the question as the limited space may even cause a(n)
individual to experience some cabin fever．And finally, a micro-home is likely a temporary living option for most people since they will probably start families and acquire more
.
Though the limitation will scare some, there is usually a benefit．A small size results in a small price tag and small bills, making tiny houses easier to save up for and ．And though you won’t have much stuff around the house, this can provide the comfort of simple living and maintenance．Micro-homes are also practically mobile and claim eco-friendliness that can’t be matched by other homes．They probably aren’t for everyone or forever, but when it comes to your next (or first) home, they could be just what you need.

| B．alternative |
| C．boast |
| D．budget |
E． elimination
F． enclosed
