D1 1-4 CBDD
1. C。根据第三段Her mom solved the problem this year when she discovered that other parents had hired a private city tour bus to take their children to the school.和第四段Now, she leaves the house at a much more sane (合理的) [time] – 7:10 in the morning ... to catch the little tour bus at 7:23 am可知C选项正确。
2. B。根据第五段But more than 3,300 people have signed an online petition (请愿) looking for a better solution from the Seattle school district. Those who have signed the petition want all high schools and middle schools to start no earlier than 8:30 am.可知请愿的内容是希望推迟上学时间，选B。
3. D。根据倒数第二段Coaches don’t want late dismissals (放学) cutting into sports practices; community groups don’t want to wait longer for gyms and fields and before- and after-school programs don’t want to change their schedules.可知推迟上学时间会影响很多课外的活动，因此选D。根据They have provided plenty of scientific evidence that teenagers tend to be night owls (夜猫子) and delayed start times improve their health, mood, attention, and, in some cases, learning.可排除B选项。C选项错在与所问并不构成因果关系。A选项文中没有提及。
4. D。根据倒数第二段But attempts (尝试) to delay start times for teenagers haven’t worked.以及最后一段This time, however, they’ve got Seattle School Board President Sharon Peaslee on their side.可知因为这次有Sharon Peaslee的支持，推迟上学时间的可能性增大了，选D。其他选项文中均没有体现。
D2 1-3 CDB
1. C. 开头作者举了几个标题作为例子，是为了让读者了解tabloid这种英国小报的特色，为后文的展开作铺垫。因此C项正确。
2. D. 根据Sometimes, celebrities take tabloids to court because they write too many things about their private lives和The sports section is also popular, and you can find out about sportspeople’s careers and their private lives. Tabloids are full of scandals, scandals and more scandals可知英国小报擅长揭露明星隐私，而且经常为此被名人告上法庭。因此D项正确。
3. B. 根据This kind of newspaper is known to be not as serious as other newspapers可知英国小报上的内容都是不太严肃的社会娱乐话题。再结合后文的例子，例如，While you can read the same story in other newspapers, a tabloid （小报） will normally give you a lot more details and even some horrible photos, including dead bodies covered in blood. 可知B项最合适。
D3 1-4 CDBC
1. C。根据“In smoggy weather, the device would suck up the air in front of the bike and blow out clean air toward the cyclist’s face.” 可知Daan研发的空气净化装置可以吸收骑车人面前的有害气体，并释放新鲜空气，故C正确。具体的安装位置没有具体说明，且根据是净化自行车前的空气可推出不大可能安装在自行车后部，故A错误。B、D选项文章并未提及，故不选。
2. D。本题考查Smog Free Tower的工作原理。根据第五段以及第六段“Take a balloon and polish it with your hand to produce static – it’s the same principle” 可知，Smog Free Tower的工作原理是运用了静电原理，故D正确。文章虽有提到screen，但是并没有写它可以分解有害粒子，故A错误。根据“purifies the air by giving out positive ions”可知，释放的是阳离子，故B错误。文章并没有说过滤网有很多层，故C不选。
3. B。根据文章最后一段可知，虽然一座净化塔和带有净化装置的自行车并不能解决中国的空气污染问题，但是Daan希望这些自行车可以帮助人们创造一个绿色的城市，故B正确，D错误。文中提到中国的空气污染是由燃煤造成的，但是Daan并没有表示对此的态度，故A错误。C选项文章并未提及，故不选。
4. C。 文章主要介绍Daan的Smog Free Project，其中包括了Smog Free自行车和塔。故C正确。A选项有涉及，但是并不是文章的主要内容，故不选。文章并没有指出Daan发明的不足，故D不选。文章并没有表明Daan的发明是解决中国空气问题的一个好的方案，故B不选。
D4 1-4 CABC
1. C。根据文章第六段Creating a good life requires you to choose how you spend your time well.可知，作者认为，创造一个好的生活需要妥善安排自己的时间，因此答案为C。A项作者只表示生命的意义不在于我们得到了什么，而在于创造了什么，并没有要求读者心怀感恩；B项文章未提及；D项作者认为如果每天能做点自己喜欢的事就很开心，并非要求读者每天作者自己喜欢的事。
2. A。根据文章第九至十一段，作者认为我们的自由时间非常有限，因此要在有限的自由时间内尽量做自己喜欢做的事情，因此答案为A。B项是作者自己喜欢做的事；C、D两项文章未提及。
3. B。根据文章倒数第四、五两段可知，作者认为我们的选择决定了我们能过什么样的生活，而选择权在我们自己手里，因此答案为B。其他三项作者在文中均未表露出来。
4. C。通读全文，作者都在讲述以自己的想法，我们应该怎样提高生活的质量，过自己想要的生活，因此答案为C。其他三项均不是作者写作主要想表达的东西。

W: He still doesn’t know that Santa isn’t real? How old is he, eight?
M: Yes. He’s never said anything, so I’ve never told him. But now that he’s getting older…
W: You think it’s better you tell him?

Text 10
When you’re talking with others, you’re not just using words, but also expressions and gestures in order to make yourself understood. For example, waving a hand is a way to say "goodbye." A smile and handshake are ways to welcome someone, and clapping our hands means congratulations. Nodding our head means agreement, while shaking the head means disagreement. These gestures are accepted by many cultures as having the same meanings. But sometimes, different countries use different body language. When Japanese people meet, they bow. When Indians meet, they put their hands together. When British and American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands - they don’t usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends, and men kiss women friends on the cheek. When a man meets a man friend, he usually just smiles, and says “Hi”.
