2020届河北武邑中学高三英语下学期期末试卷及答案
2020届河北武邑中学高三英语下学期期末试卷及答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AMy Biggest ChallengeAs a writer on an adventure sports magazine, I’dalways fought shy of doing the adventurous stuff myself, preferring instead to observe the experts from a safe distance and relay their experiences to readers in the form of written language. Thus, when I was challenged to take part in a mountain climb in aid of raising money for charity-and to write about it afterwards-I was unwilling, to say the least.I was lucky enough to have a brilliant climbing coach called Keith, who put me through my paces after my daily work. He gave me knowledge about everything from the importance of building muscle groups to how to avoid tiredness through nutrition. It quickly became apparent that the mechanics of climbing were more complex than I had imagined. There was the equipment and techniques I’d never even heard of, all of which would come in handy on the snow-capped peak I’d be climbing.Aware of the challenge, Keith made a detailed action plan and I forced myself to stick to it, doing a daily workout at the gym and going on hikes with a heavy pack. I perfected my technique on the climbing wall and even went to climb the mountains to get vital experience. My self-belief increased alongside my muscle power and I became confident about finishing the climb.All too soon I was on a plane to my destination. On that day, when I looked up at the mountain, I thought of abandoning it. But then I remembered all the hard work I’d done and how disappointed Keith would be if I gave up at the last minute-not to mention letting down the charity and the sense of failure I’d experience myself. With a deep breath I gathered my equipment and headed out into the sunshine to meet the rest of the group.And as I sit here now, tapping away on my laptop, I’m amazed at the details in which I can recall every second of the climb: the burning muscles, the tiredness, the minor problems along the way. Could I have been better prepared? Possibly. Would I be back for another go? Thankfully not. The feeling of being excited when I stood on top of the world is a never-to-be-repeated experience but one I will enjoy forever nevertheless.1. At the beginning of the activity, the author revealed his ______.A. disappointment in the coming adventure.B. expectation of writing about his experience.C. lack of enthusiasm for the challenge he’d been offered.D. curiosity about taking part in the mountain climb for charity.2. What did the author realise during his climb training?A. The knowledge about climbing was really confusing.B. The equipment was the key factor to reach the peak.C. Climbing was much more complicated than expected.D. Hard training was far more important than making plans.3. How did the author feel after he succeeded in climbing the mountain?A. He was relieved that he wouldn’t have to do it again.B. He was well satisfied that he had done his best for it.C. He was surprised that he had managed to complete it.D.He was regretful that it wasn’t as smooth as imagined.BWhen I was young, my mother didn't have the money to send me to school, but she thought it was important for me to keep up with education.So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself.But because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was at 4：30 inthe morning.We needevery one of you to develop your talents and your skills so that you can help us old folks solve our most difficult problems. If you quit on school—you're not just quitting on yourself, but you're quitting on your country. No one's written your destiny(命运)for you, because you write your own destiny. You make your own future.That's why today I'm calling on each of you to set your own goals for your education and do everything you can to meet them.Your goal can be something as simple as doing all your homework, paying attention in class, or spending some time reading a book.But whatever you decide to do, I want you to commit to it.I want you to really work at it.I know that sometimes you get that sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star.No one's born being good at all things. You become good at things through hard work.You're not a good athlete the first time you play a new sport.You don't hit every note the first time you sing a song.You've got to practise.4. What can we learn from the first paragraph？A. The writer's home was very rich.B. The writer's mother was a teacher.C. The writer was born in a poor family.D. The writer didn't like reading books.5. What does the writer want everyone to do by improving their talents and skills？A. To quit on their country to earn more money.B. To help solve the most difficult problems.C. To write their own new destiny by working as a TV star.D. To spend some time writing books about their own life.6. Why does the writer call on everyone to set his/her own goal？A. Because everyone's future is determined by themselves.B. Because eyeryone's future is to do simple work.C. Because everyone should do their homework.D. Because everyone should pay attention in class.7. How can people realise their great dreams？A. By rapping.B. By playing basketball.C. By being a reality star.D. By working hard.CHave you ever done something for someone else—knowing that your actions would solely benefit THEM and not YOU? Maybe you opened a door or donated blood or volunteered in a hospital’s ER during the pandemic. This is called a prosocial behavior. Humans engage in these types of behaviors all the time.But a question remains in science: Are we the only species who do this? As one of out closest s, chimpanzees have long been studied for signs of this. So far, research has provided mixed results on the question.Some studies show that chimps cooperatively hunt, share food and comfort each other. But one study came to a very different conclusion. The study used a controlled lab experiment where chimpanzees in enclosures were given two options: push a button to give food to themselves or push the button to give food to themselves AND a partner chimp. If they chose the latter, it was seen as a prosocial behavior. But the result is that chimps showed no special preferences for feeding themselves and a friend over feeding just themselves. Another study conducted by DeTroy, however, discovered a totally different result.Compared to previous controlled lab-based experiments, the setup for DeTroy’s research was very naturalistic.“We installed a button and a fountain into the chimpanzees’ outer enclosures. When an individual pushes the button, it releases juice from the fountain. However, since the button and fountain are approximately five meters apart, the individual pushing cannot directly drink from the fountain. And if any other chimpanzees are at the fountain when the button is pushed, they, and not the pusher, will be able to drink the juice.In this experiment, chimpanzees showed a willingness to act in the interest of others, with individual chimpanzees prepared to push the button without benefiting themselves.“It is really fascinating to see that many of the chimpanzees were willing to prosocially provide valuable resources to the group members even if they couldn’t benefit themselves from their behavior.” said DeTroy.Further research may reveal what lies behind their prosocial motivation. But for now, it’s safe to assume that chimpanzees are not simply aping human behavior.8. Which of the following belongs to prosocial behaviors?A. Jack participated in voluntary work in the library just to earn credits.B. Mark turned to his classmate for help when feeling stressful in study.C. Tim guided a lost child back home on his way to an important job interview.D. Rose often interrupted the teacher to ask questions actively in the math’s class.9. What is the task of the chimpanzees in the lab-based study?A. Sharing food.B. Making a choice.C. Comforting others.D. Showing sympathy.10. How is DeTroy’s study different from the previous ones?A. It was based on controlled lab experiment.B. It gave juice to the chimpanzees as a reward.C. It offered the tested chimpanzees a natural surrounding.D. It provided a chance for chimpanzees to help their partners.11. What can we learn from DeTroy’s quotes?A. Chimpanzees can develop abilities to help others.B. Chimpanzees have acquired many human behaviors.C. Chimpanzees in the wild is cleverer than those in the lab.D. Chimpanzees displayed prosocial behaviors for certain rewards.DWe asked four people who watched an online talk on technology and communication by Sherry Turkle fortheir opinions.Fred:The talk certainly gave me plenty of food for thought about how technology is changing our behaviour. People are constantly multitasking, whether it be emailing during meetings or texting in the checkout queue. It’s as if we can’t bear to miss out on what our online friends are up to, so we juggle the real and online world. My greatest concern is that we don’t give our brains a chance to switch off. It’sthese precious momentswhen we actually process information that helps us make important decisions.Jeremy:It was a fascinating talk and the speaker really hit the nail on the head with a couple of things. Take parental influence, for instance. How can we expect teenagers not to text while doing their homework when they witness their parents posting on social media while cooking the evening meal or waiting at a red light?Kath:So much of what the speaker said rang true. I honestly believe there’s a danger that the more connected we are, the more isolated we feel. I don’t think this is such an issue for my generation who’ve lived without technology for so long. We know how to be alone. But the under 20s are another kettle of fish. They’re so busy communicating that they never experience the feeling of solitude and run the risk of not learning how to enjoy their own company.Carl:I’m not sure to what extent I agree that people are more alone, but the way we communicate has certainly evolved. The speaker makes a good point about how we’re getting used to talking with machines like Siri or robots, which are totally lack of experience of human life. But despite such limitations, we seem to be expecting more from technology and less from each other.12. What does the underlined phrase “these precious moments” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. When our brains are free.B. When we emailing during meeting.C. When we texting in the checkout queue.D. When we juggle the real and online world.13. What suggestion may Jeremy give to the parents?A. Accompany their children when they are doing homework.B. Prevent their children using phone while doing homework.C. Set a good example for their children on using phone properly.D. Stop posting on social media in face of their children.14. What does Kath worry about the under 20s generation?A. They communicate more with others.B. They use more technology.C. It’s difficult for them to find companies.D. They don’t know how to be alone.15. What is Carl’s attitude towards the use of technology in communication?A. Favorable.B. Intolerant.C. Doubtful.D. Indifferent.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

河北省武邑中学高一英语下学期课练5(实验班)
AI was stuck in O'hare airport on an extremely long weather delay, pacing up and down the waiting hall for some exercise, when I passed a wine bar for the twentieth time or so. But this time there was a young woman behind the piano, playing what I could only describe as absolutely beautiful classical music. She had not been there ten minutes earlier when I passed.I sat down at an empty table for four very near the piano, and began to be warmed by her music and a bit by the wine! She played so effortlessly and with such beauty in every note. Her music immediately brought a huge smile to my face!Soon, on a break, I thanked her and she told me that after a long day traveling, and now also facing long weather delays, she "just needed to blow off some steam." Wow! Her version of blowing off steam was a gift to get.As I sat alone drinking my wine, absorbed in this young woman's celebration of her musical passion, two women approached my table an d asked if they could join me.I invited them to sit and we immediately began sharing our love of music and celebrating the happiness the piano music was bringing us at that moment.The two women and I began to talk about our travels, life journeys, and passions. Hearing that unbelievable pian o music, and then meeting such interesting women, who generously shared with me their wisdom, perspectives, and feelings of love for each other, was truly joyous. Faced with an 11- hour travel day -- to get what normally takes 45 minutes --could have been physically and emotionally exhausting. Rather, by accident of walking by a wine bar at the right moment, and having a couple of seats open at my table, my life was filled with joy.I will cherish those moments for some time to come. This experience highlights (突出) the critical need in our lives to stop and listen to the music, to invite others to sit at your life table, to open yourself up to a stranger or two, sharing some of your deepest perspectives and experiences. Be open to noticing, absorbing, and also contributing to the joy around you!21.What does the underlined phrase “blow off some steam” in Paragraph 3 probablymean?A. Reduce anger.B. Relax herself.C. Make full use of time.D. Breathe fresh air.22. How long was the author’s travel supposed to ta ke without weather delay?A. 10 minutes.B. 20 minutes.C. 45 minutes.D. 11hours.23. How did the author feel about the experience in the airport?A. Happy and meaningful.B. Lonely but unforgettable.C. Boring and meaningless.D. Long and tiring.24. The author writes the text in order to encourage people _______.A.to make the acquaintance of strangersB.to share your experiences with othersC.to communicate with others more oftenD.to notice and enjoy the happiness aroundyouBWhile your pet fish may appear to be ignorant of your presence, chances are that it knows you extremely well and can probably even identify you from a crowd of human faces! At least, that is the conclu sion reached by scientists the University of Oxford in the U.K. and the University of Queensland in Australia, following an extensive study of the archerfish (喷水鱼), a species of tropical fish that can be found all the way from India to Indonesia, the Philippines, and Australia.The ability to distinguish be tween human faces is a complex task. That’s because we all have the same basic features — two eyes sitting above a nose and a mouth. It’s only the subtle differences that make humans disti nct from one another. Since this requires a combination of both visual sense and memory, researchers had always assumed that it was a skill possessed only by those with complicated brains, i.e., human s, a few select animals — such as horses, cows, dogs, monkeys and some birds, like pigeons.To test if this assumption was accurate, a team of scientists led by Dr. Cait Newport, Marie Curie Research Fellow in the Department of Zoology at Oxford University, decided to study fish. The aquatic (水生的) animals have small brains that lack the neocortex（大脑新皮层）, or neocortex-like structure, believed to help recognize the subtle differences between human facial features.The team began by presenting four archerfish with images of two human faces. Initially, the fish spat randomly at both. However, they soon learned that pouring water at the one selected by the researchers earned them a food treat. After that, they focused primarily on that image. The researchers then took the experiment one step further, by introducing 44 other human faces to the mix.To the researcher’s astonishment, t he trained archerfish were able to recall the learned image almost 81% of the time. And this accuracy improved to 86% when the researchers made the identification even harder, by replacing the colored photos witha set of black and white images and hiding the shape of the head.25. What is the conclusion of the study made by the scientists from the universities?A. Some fish may ignore your presence.B. Some fish can recognize yourfaces.C. Some fish have complicated brains.D. Some fish have large brains.26. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.The ability to distinguish between human faces.B. A combination of visual sense and memory.C.The ability of memorizing complicated things.D.The ability of telling beasts from birds.27. In the experiment, the researchers trained the archerfish _______.A. by taking photos of fishB. by improving people’s imagesC. by rewarding them with foodD. by covering their headsCFallingwater is a house built over a waterfall in Southwestern Pennsylvania.

But designer Mikhail Belyae v doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in your getting wet. That’s why he created Lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella.The designer says he came up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “Once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street a nd saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy (伞蓬) built into a street lamp,” he said.The Lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand. Sensors (传感器) ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians (行人) shelter whenever it starts raining.In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360° motion sensor on the fiberglass street lamp which detects whether anyone is using the Lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed.According to the designer, the Lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lightning strike. Each Lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.While there are no plans to take Lampbrella into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be installed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.32. For what purpose did Belyaev create the Lampbrella?A. To predict a heavy rain.B. To check the weather forecast.C. To protect people from the rain.D. To remind people to take an umbrella.33. What do we know from Belyae v’s words in Paragraph 2?A. His creation was inspired by an experience.B. It rains a lot in the city ofSaint Petersburg.C. Street lamps are protected by canopies.D. He enjoyed taking walks in therain.34. Which of the following shows how the Lampbrella works?A. motor→canopy→sensorsB. s ensors→motor→canopyC. motor→sensors→canopyD. canopy→motor→sensors35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The designer will open a company to promote his product.B. The Lampbrella could be put into immediate production.C. The designer is confident that his creation is practical.D. The Lampbrella would be put on show in Moscow.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）As a parent, you must have a lot of concerns regarding the various skills you would like your child to acquire. Music is one of them. 36 On the other hand, it is great for a child’s overall development if he or she has an interest in the fine arts.37 It is well known that they stay out of trouble as teenagers and young adults if they have music as a serious interest. The concentration helps them with their grades. Their learning and communication skills are better than those of their peer group. They also develop lots of confidence and self-esteem.Another advantage of your child learning music becomes obvious only at a later stage. 38 It can be very beneficial and many top musicians had a very early exposure to music and credit this with their later successes.You can start when your child is only a baby, by exposing him or her to a wide range of music at home. 39 And you could sustain (维持) your child’s interest by having the both of you singing together.Some parents start their children on a musical instrument as early as 3 years of age. This i s great if the child is having a good time. It goes without saying that you should not have to drag your child to lessons. You can be sure that nothing productive will come out of it. 40 .If you start your child on music lesson by the age of 5, taking care to encourage her and not to push her, your child will grow up into an accomplished adult with a well-rounded personality.A. It can have good effects on your child.B. That is why many people make a selection of music as a career.C. And your child will have a lifelong dislike of music.D. Otherwise you’ll completely spoil your child’s future.E. You could ensure that there is a song or melody playing in the background.F. There are a couple of advantages of teaching children to play a musical instrument.G. On the one hand, you can encourage your child’s creativity and natural hobby.第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discounted model. I realized this a day late, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t got any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static (静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually,this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.1. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A. He got an older model than he had expected.B. He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C. He could have bought it at a lower price.D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.2.Which of the following can best replace the p hrase”signed off”in Paragraph 1?A. ended all their programsB. provided fewer channelsC. changed to commercialsD. showed all-night movies3. How did the author finally get his TV set working again?A. By shaking and hitting it.B. By turning it on and off.C. By switching channels.D. By having it repaired.4. How does the another sound when telling the story ?A. CuriousB. AnxiousC. CautiousD. HumorousBYour house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely toencourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious（难为情）when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, wh ile cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.Don’t forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories（卡路里）per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes, Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake（摄入） jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.5. The text is especially helpful for those who care about_______.A. their home comfortsB. their body shapeC. house buyingD. healthy diets6. A home environment in blue can help people_________.A. digest food betterB. reduce food intakeC. burn more caloriesD. regain their appetites7. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?A. Eat quickly.B. Play fast music.C. Use smaller spoons.D. Turn down the lights.8. What can be a suitable title for the test?A. Is Your House Making You Fat?B. Ways of Serving DinnerC. Effects of Self-ConsciousnessD. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?CMore students than ever before are taking a gap-year (间隔年)before going to university. It used to be called the “year off” between school and university. The gap-year phenomenon originated (起源) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.This year, 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance provided by University and College Admissions Service(UCAS).That is a record 14.7% inc rease in the number of students taking a gap year. TonyHiggins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education. “Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, and complete, their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,” he said.But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of Students(NUS), argued that the increase is evidence of student hardship – young pe ople are being forced into earning money before finishing their education. “New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university up to ￡15,000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree.NUS statistics show that over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacation periods,” he said.9. What do we learn about the gap year from the text?A. It is flexible in length.B. It is a time for relaxation.C. It is increasingly popular.D. It is required by universities.10. According to Tony Higgins,students taking a gap year______.A. arc better prepared for college studiesB. know a lot more about their future jobsC. are more likely to leave university in debtD. have a better chance to enter top universities11. How does Owain James feel about the gap-year phenomenon?A. He's puzzled.B. He's worried.C. He's surprised.D. He's annoyed.12. What would most students do on their vacation according to NUS statistics?A. Attend additional courses.B. Make plans for the new term.C. Earn money for their education.D. Prepare for their graduate studies.DChoose Your One-Day ToursTour A—Bath & Stonehenge including entrance fees to the ancient Roman bathrooms and Stonehenge —￡until 26 March and ￡39 thereafter.Visit the city with over 2,000 years of history and Bath Abbey, the Royal Crescent and the Costume Museum.

阅读理解AA sure way to destroy your chances of learning how to write skillfully is to believe that writing is a “natural gift” rather than a learned skill. People with such an attitude think that they are the only ones for whom writing is unbearably difficult. They feel that everyone else finds writing easy or at least tolerable. Such people often say, “I’m not any good at writing” or “English was not one of my good subjects.” They imply that they simply do not have a talent for writing while others do. The result of this attitude is that these people try to avoid writing, and when they do write, they don’t try their best. Their writing fails chiefly because they believe that they don’t have the “natural talent” needed to write. Unless their attitude changes, they probably will not learn how to write effectively.A realistic attitude about writing must build on the idea that writing is a skill. It is a skill like driving, typing, or cooking; and, like any skill, it can be learned. If you have the determination to learn, you will develop your writing skills by practicing extensively.Many people find it difficult to do the active thinking that clear writing demands. It is frustrating to discover how much of a challenge it is to transfer thoughts and feelings fro m one’s head onto a sheet of paper. But writing is not an automatic process: We will not get something for nothing—and we should not expect to. For almost everyone, skillful writing comes from hard work—from determination and sweat. The good news is that the skill of writing can be mastered, and if you are ready to work, you will learn what you need to know.21. Why do some people think writing is difficult?A. They have no time to practice writing.B. They believe few people can write well.C. They have no good teachers to help them.D. They don’t think writing can be learned.22. It can be inferred from Para. 1 that ________.A. “natural gift” is the determining factor in one’s successB. diligence can result in successC. a person without “natural gift” is sure to fail in writingD. attitude determines what one will be23. What is the topic of the passage?A. Why writing is important.B. Whether wri ting is a born gift.C. Benefits of essay writing.D. How to improve writing skills.BBesides containing attractive flowers, trees and other plants that beautify the community, ecofriendly rain gardens are healthy for the environment and the people living and working nearby.A rain garden is not very different from a traditional garden. It is just a far more ecofriendly garden. Usually it is built lower than the ground. Rain gardens make smart use of rain and storm water by temporarily holding water from rain and storms and letting it soak (浸入) slowly into the ground before it runs into streams or enters the public drinking water supply.Thus, a rain garden keeps the water, allowing it to be used as needed by plants in the rain garden, rather than flowing immediately into nearby streams and going unused. The water will soak slowly into the ground within a day or two. This creates an advantage that the rain garden does not allow mosquitoes to breed. This is a simple, attractive, and eco friendly “green” way to treat storm water.What’s more, planting a rain garden helps reduce pollution and improve the environment. Without using expensive machinery and chemicals, rain gardens remove harmful chemicals in the rainwater and cut down on the amount of pollution reaching streams and rivers by up to 30%.Native plants are recommended for rain gardens because they are more used to the local climate, soil, and water conditions. They may attract local wildlife such as native birds. Water your rain garden immediately after planting and once a week, unless you have had at least an inch of rain during the week. Once native plants establish the necessary root system, they will require little care.Often, local governments and private businesses develop large rain gardens intheir yards and in public parks as a way to improve the environment and solve flooding problem s. However, you don’t need to be a professionally environmental engineer to create a rain garden. As long as you’re eco conscious homeowners, you can help the environment by building smaller rain gardens in your yards.24. Which of the following is NOT true for the function of rain gardens?A. They are good for living conditions.B. They increase pollution.C. They can beautify the community.D. They improve the environment.25. Which of the following is the ecofriendly function of rain gardens discussed in Paragraph 4 ?A. They can help reduce the pollution problem.B. They can keep the rain and storm water.C. They can be healthy for the people around.D. They can make the environment more beautiful.26. One of the main reasons why native plants are recommended is that ________.A. they cost less and are much easier to getB. they may attract local wildlife to comeC. they require little care from the local gardenerD. they are more used to the local growing conditions27. What do we know about rain gardens?A. They need little water after all the plants are planted.B. They may attract local birds and change the local climate.C. They usually need at least an inch of rainwater a week.D. They may reduce the water pollution problem by 70%.CIt was reported last week that developers could take photos from Apple mobile and Google Android devices without the phone owners knowing that the images were being taken. In Apple’s case, developers can also obtain the location information for each photo.Senator (参议员) Charles Schumer said in a telephone interview that his office had spoken with officials at both Apple and Google on Monday.“We asked them if they cou ld find a way on their own to prevent Apple from having access to private information,” Mr. Schumer said. “They were friendly and open to the idea that this ought to be changed.”On Sunday, Mr. Schumer said that he planned to send a letter to the Federal Trade Commission asking the agency to investigate Apple and Google after the privacy concerns came to light. Claudia Bourne Farrell, an F.T.C. spokeswoman, said the agency had received the letter but she could not comment further.“It worries people to think that one’s personal photos, address book, and who knows what else can be obtained and even posted online without permission,” Mr. Schumer wrote in his letter to the F. T.C. “If the technology exists to open the door to this kind of privacy invasion, then surely technology exists to close it, and that’s exactly what must happen.”Mr. Schumer said if Apple and Google could not come to an agreement to fix the problem, then he would be forced to take the issue further.He said other companies had been willing to work with his office to fix issues. “I’m optimistic that we can get this changed without any regulation,” he said. “If it’s not changed, then we’ll turn to the F.T.C., and if that doesn’t work then we’ll consider legislative approach.”The F.T.C. has warned companies to try to be more vigilant (警醒的) in their efforts to protect consumers when it comes to privacy.28. The senators spoke with officials at both Apple and Google _______.A. to urge them not to invade consumers’ privacy.B. to discuss whether it is illegal to have access to private information.C. to stop them from developing the technology of taking photos.D. to keep them from obtaining the location information for each photo.29. Which of the following statements is True?A. Privacy invasion from Apple has existed for a long time.B. Mr. Schumer takes the privacy concerns caused by Apple and Google seriously.C. Privacy invasion from Google has exi sted for a long time.D. Apple and Google have decided to make a change.30. Mr. Schumer’s letter to the F.T.C. mainly shows that the technology to openthe door to privacy invasion _______.A. causes privacy invasion to happen frequently.B. can be used if permitted.C. causes people to worry about the safety of their personal information.D. causes personal information to be posted online without permission.31. Where can we read about the passage?A. In a newspaper.B. In a magazine.C. In a science report.D. In a textbook.DA sick little girl is being kept alive thanks to her best friend—a dog who carries her oxygen tank on his back. Alida’s faithful dog companion Mr Gibbs has been specially trained to shepherd the three-year-old, who breathes through a tube most of the time. He follows her closely as she plays in her family’s ten-acre land in Louisville, uses the slide or even rides her bike.Alida was diagnosed with neuroendocrine hyperplasia of infancy (NEHI) when she was just eight months old. Her rare condition has just eight hundred documented sufferers throughout the world, and causes diseased pieces of the lungs to filter oxygen through extra layers of cells, making it hard or almost impossible to breathe. For Alida and her parents, it meant that even a walk in the park was very difficult because oxygen equipment was too heavy for the youngster to be able to carry herself. As parents, they wanted to do something to help their daughter survive despite having a tube following her all the time. The couple found out about “service dogs” from a TV program and realized an animal trained to help the blind could be trained to help Alida. They finally found help in the shape of golden doodle—a retriever crossed with a poodle-dog Mr Gibbs. Now thanks to trainer Ashleigh Kinsley—Alida and Mr Gibbs love nothing more than playing and running around together with the do g acting as Alida’s life saver.32. What is Mr Gibbs?A. A pet dog.B. A policeman.C. A doctor.D. A firefighter.33. When did the doctor know Alida caught the disease?A. At her birth.B. At the age of eight.C. Before she was one year old.D. When she was three years old.34. The underlined part “the couple” in paragraph 3 refers to _______.A. Alida’s classmatesB. Alida’s parentsC. Alida’s doctorsD. Alida’s pets35. How did Alida keep alive?A. By training her dog.B. By staying with her parents.C. By playing with her fellows.D. By breathing through a tube.EParents feel that it is difficult to live with teenagers. 36 According to a recent research, the most common argument between parents and teenagers is that regarding untidiness and daily routine tasks. 37 On the other hand, teenagers lose their patience continually when parents blame them for dropping the towel in the bathroom, not cleaning up their room.The research, conducted by St. George University, shows that different parents have different approaches to these problems. 38 For example, those parents who yell at their children for their untidiness, but later clean the room for them, have fewer chances of changing their children’s behavior. On the contrary, those who let teenagers experience the thrills of their actions can do better.39 Parents should talk to their children but at the same time they should lend an ear to what they have to say. 40 It is only by listening to and understanding each other that problems between parents and children can be settled.A. There are many reasons for this.B. Communication is a two-way process.C. On the one hand, parents go mad over messy rooms.D. However, some approaches are more successful than others.E. It is better for children and parents to understand each other.F. Then again, teenagers have similar feelings about their parents.G. Psychologists say that communication is the most important thing inparent-child relationships.完形填空The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was ____41____, and I’d been in an argument with a friend.

It was a cold March day in High Point, North Carolina. The girls on the Wesleyan Academy softball were waiting for their next turns at bat during practice, stamping their feet to stay warm, Eighth-grader Taylor Bisbee shivered(发抖) a little as she watched her teammate Paris White pl ay. The two didn’t know each other well —Taylor had just moved to town a month or so before.Suddenly, Paris fell to the ground,“Paris’s eye rolled back,” Taylor says. “She started shaking. I knew it was an emergency.”It certainly was, Paris had suffered a sudden heart failure. Without immediate medical care, Paris would die. At first no one moved. The girls were in shock. Then the softball coach shouted out, “Does anyone know CPR?”CPR is a life-saving techniqu e. To do CPR, you press on the sick person’s chest so that blood moves through the body and takes oxygen to organs. Without oxygen the brain is damaging quickly.Amazingly, Taylor had just taken a CPR course the day before. Still, she hesitated. She didn’t think she knew it well enough. But when no one else came forward, Taylor ran to Paris and began doing CPR, “It was scary. I knew it was the difference between life and death,” says Taylor.Taylor’s swift action helped her teammates calm down. One girl ca lled 911. Two more ran to get the school nurse, who brought a defibrillator, an electronic devices(器械) that can shock the heart back into work. Luck stayed with them: Paris’ heartbeat returned.“I know I was really lucky,” Paris says now. “Most people don’t survive this. My team saved my life.”Experts say Paris is right: For a sudden heart failure, the single best chance for survival is having someone nearby step in and do CPR quickly.Today, Paris is back on the softball team. Taylor will apply to college soon. She wants to be a nurse. “I feel more confident in my actions now,” Taylor says. “I know I can act under pressure in a scary situation.”56.What happened to Paris on a March day?A.

But the disease is making a comeback, caused by a growing anti-vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly. Already this year,115 measles cases have been reported in the USA, compared with 189 for all of last year.The numbers might sound small, but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend. When vaccination rates are very high, as they still are in the nation as a whole, everyone is protected. This is called “herd immunity”, which protects the people who get hurt easily, including those who can’t be vaccinated for medical reasons, babies too young to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesn’t work.But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in. When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride, immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger.That’s exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County, California, where 22 measles cases were reported this month, to Brooklyn, N.Y., where a 17-year-old caused an outbreak last year.The resistance to vaccine has continued for decades, and it is driven by a real but very small risk. Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer.Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out(决定不参加) of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten. Seventeen states allow parents to get an exemption（豁免), sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine.Now, several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out. But no one does enough to limit exemp tions.Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited medical or religious reasons. But personal opinions? Not good enough. Everyone enjoys the life-saving benefits vaccines provide, but they’ll exist onl y as long as everyone shares in the risks. 63．The first two paragraphs suggest that ____________.A．a small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trendB．the outbreak of measles attracts the public attentionC．anti-vaccine movement has its medical reasonsD．information about measles spreads quickly64．Herd immunity works well when ____________.A．exemptions are allowed B．several vaccines are used together C．the whole neighborhood is involved in D．new regulations are added to the state laws65．What is the main reason for the comeback of measles?A．The overuse of vaccine. B．The lack of medical care.C．The features of measles itself. D．The vaccine opt-outs of some people. 66．What is the purpose of the passage?A．To introduce the idea of exemption. B．To discuss methods to cure measles.C．To stress the importance of vaccination. D．To appeal for equal rights in medical treatment.完型Hannah Taylor is a schoolgirl from Manitoba, Canada. One day, when she was five years old, she was walking with her mother in downtown Winnipeg. They saw a man 36 out of a garbage can. She asked her mother why he did that and her mother said thatthe man was homeless and hungry. Hannah was very 37 .She couldn't understand why some people had to live their lives without shelter or enough food. Hannah startedto think about how she could 38 ,but,of course, there is not a lot onefive-year-old can do to solve(解决)the problem of homelessness.Later ,when Hannah attended school, she saw another homeless person. It was a woman, 39 an old shopping trolley（购物车）which was piled with 40 . It seemedthat everything the woman owned was in them. This made Hannah very sad, and even more41 to do something. She had been talking to her mother about the lives of homeless people 42 they first saw the homeless man. Her mother told her that if she did something to change the problem that made her sad, she wouldn’t 43 as bad.Hannah began to speak out about the homelessness in Manitoba and then in other provinces. She hoped to 44 her message of hope and awareness. She started the Ladybug Foudation ,an organization aiming at getting rid of homelessness. She began to 45 “Big Bosses” lunches, where she would try to persuade local business leaders to46 to the cause. She also organized a fundraising(募捐)drive in “Ladybug Jars” to collect everyone`s spare change during “Make Change” month. More recently, thefoundation began another 47 called National Red Scarf Day—a day when people donate $20 and wear red scarves in support of Canada`s 48 and homeless.There is an emergency shelter in Winn ipeg called “Hannah`s Place”, something that Hannah is very 49 of. Hannah`s Place is divided into several areas, providing shelter for people when it is so cold that 50 outdoors can mean death. In the more than five years since Hannah began her activities, she has received a lot of 51 .For example, she received the 2007 BRICK Award recognizing the 52 of young people to change the world. But 53 all this, Hannah still has the 54 life of a Winnipeg schoolgirl, except that she pays regular visits to homeless people.Hannah is one of many examples of young people who are making a 55 in the world.

the Taklamakan Desert in Xinjiang.“I wanted to be an adventurer when I was small.I have loved reading adventure books since I was a child.”Since 1970，Miss Lee has always been on trips，travelling to different parts of the world with a backpack and a sleeping bag.S he said that these journeys changed her values.“After visiting these places，I started to treasure my life much more than before.During this time，I came to realize how small I am in the universe，but nothing in this world is unsolvable.”Miss Lee said she had a lot of unforgettable experiences on her journeys.There was one terrible storm at sea when she was returning from the South Pole.The whole team was happy to be returning home after a one－year stay at the South Pole.During the storm, waves reached heights of up to 30 meters，as high as a 10－story building.She stayed calm at the time and took steps to protect their research findings.She hoped the rescuers would find them even if they lost their lives.Part of the ship was destroyed and a lot of water came in.Luckily they all survived，but she came away from the experience with a realization about the power of nature.Miss Lee is also the founder of the Chi na Polar Museum Foundation.Building a polar museum has always been her dream.According to Miss Lee，the museum will use advanced technology to help develop scientists' work in polar areas.Also，it will provide places for scientists to do research.4.From the first paragraph we know Lee Lok Sze enjoys .A.exploring remote unknown placesB.visiting popular places of interestC.reading all kinds of books

StormD.A Brave and Noble WomanCResearchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger's personality simply by loo king at the person's shoes.“Shoes convey useful information about their wearers，”the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality.Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style，cost，color and condition of someone's shoes.In the study，63 University of Kansas researchers looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants.Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes，and then filled out a personality questionnaire.Some of the results were expected：People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes，and flashier shoes were typically worn by outgoing people.However，some of the more specific results are strange enough.For example，“practical and functional”shoes were generally worn by more“pleasant”people，while ankle boots were more linked with“aggressive”personalities.The strangest of all may be thatthose who wore“uncomfortable looking” shoes tend to have “calm” personalities.And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take extreme care of them，you may suffer from“attachment anxiety”，spending lots of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance.There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal(主张变革的)types wearing“shabbier and less expensive” shoes.The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personalities，but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were showing the deep side of their personalities.8.What does th is text mainly tell us?A.Shoes can hide people's real personalit ies.B.Shoes convey false information about the wearer.C.People's personalities can be judged by their shoes.D.People know little about their personalities.9.Which of the results is beyond people's expectation?A.Wealthy people often wear expensive shoes.B.Pleasant people like wearing uncomfortable shoes.C.Aggressive people are likely to wear ankle boots.D.Flashier shoes are typically worn by outgoing people.10.People suffering from“attachment anxiety” tend to .A.wear strange shoesB.worry about their appearanceC.have a calm characterD.become a political leader11.The author wrote the text in order to .rm us of a new studyB.introduce a research methodC.teach how to choose shoesD.describe different personalitiesDBorn in

Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure — those who have climbed the highest mountains, traveled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who look for an immediate excitement from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon) 200 meres above the ground with an elastic (有弹性的) rope tied to your ankles. Youfall at up to 150 kilometer an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that about 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee jumping include jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs (悬崖).Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people’s lives were constantly in danger. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured,and life was a continuous battle for survival.Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in safe conditions; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to look for danger in act ivities such as bungee jumping.56. More and more people today______.A. are coming close to death in sportsB. are climbing the highest mountainsC. are trying activities such as bungee jumpingD. are traveling into unknown parts of the world57. In bungee jumping, you ______.A. jump as high as you canB. slide down a rope to the groundC. tie yourself to a rope and fall to the groundD. fall towards the ground without any protection58. People take part in dangerous sports mainly because______.A. they have a lot of free timeB. their life is short of excitementC. they no longer need to hunt for foodD. they can go to hospital if they are injured59. The best title for the text is ______.A. Dangerous Sports: What and WhyB. The Boredom of Modern LifeC. Bungee Jumping: It is really DangerousD. The Need for ExcitementBYou may think that sailing is difficult, but it is really not hard to learn it. You do not need to be strong. But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.First, you must ask yourself, “Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or beh ind or from the side?” You must think about this all the time on the boat. The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail. Let’s start with the wind blowing from behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90°angle (角度) to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best.If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45° angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldn’t flap (摆动). It shouldn’t look like a flag on a flagpole. If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down. Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. You may want to go in that direction. It is possible, but you can’t go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction and then in another. This is called tacking (作“之”字形航行). When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.60. What should you consider first while sailing?A. Sailors’ strength.B. Wave levels.C. Wind directions.D. Size of the sail.61. What does the underlined word “It” in Para 4 re fer to?A. The sail.B. The wind.C. The boat.D. The angle.62. What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?A. Move in a straight line.B. Allow the sail to flap.C. Lower the sail.D. Tack the boat.63. What’s the purpose of wr iting the passage?A. To advise you to go sailing.B. To teach you how to go sailing.C. To show the danger of sailing.D. To tell the difficulty of sailing. CIt is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver’s seat is another matter.Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense. It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarreling and fighting. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of goodwill and calm so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behaviors of politeness are by no means enough. Many drivers nowa days don’t even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it. However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. Typical examples are the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time. The same goesfor encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to. It always amazes me that the highways are not covered with the dead bodies of these grannies.An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without caus ing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings. Unfortunately, modern drivers can’t even learn to drive, let alone master the roadmanship. Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.64. What can we learn from the text?A. Rude drivers should be punished.B. Road politeness is more than good manners.C. Strict traffic regulations are badly needed.D. Drivers should try their best to avoid traffic jams.65. It is not alwa ys right for drivers to _______. .A. master roadmanshipB. recognize politeness when they see itC. encourage old ladies to cross the roads firstD. give a friendly nod in answer to an act of politeness66. The underlined word “give-and-take” probably means ______.A. politeness and impolitenessB. good manners and bad mannersC. offering help to others as much as possibleD. willingness to give in to each other’s wishes67. What is the best title of the passage?A. Road PolitenessB. Traffic ProblemsC. Bad Manners on the RoadD. Good Drivers and Bad DriverDPeople often say you never get a second chance to make a first impression, and that's actually quite true. 68 After all, making a good first impression is all about making others feel good when spending time wit h them．The following tips will help you make a positive impression every time．● Dress appropriately69 That means dressing up or putting on nice, clean, situation-appropriate clothes for social situations．It isn't difficult and it doesn't have to cost you much, either．● Be aware of your body languageWords express very little of what you say．Body language can tell someone a lot about your mood and confidence level． 70 Eye contact is an easy way to make others feel comfortable, important and special．Nervous body language can make others uncomfortable and anxious．Try to be aware of your body language when communicating with others．● Respect the opinions of othersNot everyone will have the same opinion with you, and friendly disagreements can be a gateway to a great conversation．Respect other people's right to have their own opinion．Respect the opinions of others even if you disagree with them． 71● 72People love talking about themselves, but generally, you want to be careful of taking over the conversation．By listening carefully t o what others are saying, you are not only making them feel important, but you can gather cues you need to keep the conversation going and bridge to new topics．A．Be a careful listener.B．Show an interest in every person you meet.C．Smile especially when first meeting someone.D．Make sure you look nice whenever you meet someone new.E．Meeting new people and starting conversations is often challenging.F．Others will want to be with you and help you make a good impression.G．Don't force others to believe what you believe or to see things onlyas you see them语法填空There was once a small boy who would never get dressed when his parents toldhim to, nor would he wear what they wanted him to.

I meditate because I feel like it makes me a calmer person during the day. ___11___ Whatever your motivation is, get clear on it and come back to it often.● Choose Your ToolsWhen you have the right tools, meditation can feel a lot less daunting.

Look for a waterproof camera that weighs 140g or less. In terms of size, choose a waterproof camera that’s no more than two-and-a-half inches in length, two inches in width, and one-and-a-half inches in height so it’s easy to carry around.It is a good idea to read comments of the camera carefully before buying it. Comments can give people an idea of the kind of settings where the camera can be used and how well the camera performs.___19___ If those complaints are about the company’s negative response to quality problems, they can be useful information as well.If you’re using a waterproof camera underwater, try to get as close to your target as possible.

Report Warns Nature CrisisA new U.N. report focuses on the negative effects of human activity on nature.

However, these scratches (划伤) have become deep scars (伤疤) over the past 50 years. Species are going to extinct several hundred times faster than the average rate during the past ten million years. It’s something that has never happened before in human history. ___22___ Since 1970, the human population has doubled. The global economy has grown by four times. To feed, clothe and give energy to this fast-changing world, lots of forests have been cut down. ___23___ Furthermore, hunting, overfishing and pollution have also been killing species in great numbers.The problem can be fixed, the report says. ___24___ The amount of land and sea that is under protection needs to increase rapidly.

Some of them feel great, some feel unpleasant, and it’s helpful to be able to recognize and understand how you’re feeling so you know how to deal with it.____26____ They can include anger, sadness, worry, loneliness and shame, as well as surprise, happiness, courage and hope, among many others.____27____ All feelings are there to be felt and some can b e more uncomfortable than others. It’s OK and natural to experience different emotions – and that includes emotions that might not feel nice.To deal with your feelings you need to recognize what they are. ____28____ Are your fists clenched (攥紧)? Does it s eem like there’s a knot in your stomach? Next, pay attention to what you’re thinking at this time. ____29____ Or are you thinking that you really don’t want to do something? Once you have identified how you’re feeling, you can label it by saying, for examp le, “I’m feeling angry” or “I’m feeling lonely” .You can understand a difficult feeling and help yourselfto handle it. ____30____ If you’re upset about a difficult feeling, like “I’m feeling angry”, you might count to ten to calm down. Perhaps you notice “I’m feeling nervous”, and you might talk to someone about it. The person you talk to may be able to give you reassurance, more information, a different point of view, or even help you take action to deal with the cause of your difficult feeling.A．Experts call this “name it to tame it” .B．How can you deal with different feelings?C．Perhaps you have the thought, “It’s not fair” .D．Feelings are how people experience emotions.E．First of all, notice what’s going on with your body.F．They are shown through various body movements, to begin with.G．Feelings are sometimes labelled as good or bad but that isn’t helpful.Think about how much reading you do everyday.

Maybe not. Given the time that reading consumes, it may be a skill that we can and should improve.____32____ It means getting faster and more efficient at reading, while still understanding what you’re reading. Although you spend a good part of your day reading, have you ever thought about how you read? How do your eyes make sense of the shapes of the letters, and then put those letters together to form sentences that you can understand?Reading is quite a complex skill. It was previously believed during reading, both eyes focus on particular letters.____33____ Scientists now believe that the eyes lock onto different letters at the same time, usually two characters apart. Your brain then fuses (融合) these images together to form a word. This happens very swiftly, as we look through pages of text！Many people read at an average rate of 250 words per minute. ____34____Imagine, then, if you could double your rate to 500 words per minute. ____35____ You could then spend the saved time on other tasks, or take a few extra minutes to relax. Another important advantage of speed reading is that it allows one to better comprehend the overall structure of an argument. This lea ds to better “big picture” understanding, which can greatly benefit your work and career.A．Recent research shows this isn’t the case.B．Speed reading has a great many benefits.C．You should practice to improve your reading speed.D．But what does becoming a better reader involve?E．You could read all of this content in half the time.F．It’s also a skill that most of us take for granted by the time we reach age 12.G．This means that an average page in a book or document takes 1-2 minutes to read.4 Study Habits You Should Be PractisingWith exams, essays, projects, and many deadlines for different things, effective(有效的) study habits are necessary. ____36____ If you are in need of a bit of an improvement, keep reading for the top four study habits that you should be practicing.1. Make and use flashcards.___37___ By using flashcards with a question on one side and the answer on the other, you will force your brain to recall he necessary information. Even if you struggle a bit with a card, you will still be actively revising the necessary material.2. Revise, revise, revise!Many students put off studying until just before the exam, with the more hardworking students giving themselves a week or two before a test. ____38____ It’s best to revise the information a little bit every day, so that you are not upset when a test comes around.3. ___39___One of the most effective—and the most fun—methods of studying is to watch related lectures and videos in order to get more material. Watch documentaries or videos on YouTube and educational websites. You may be surprised at how much you can learn from videos, and just how much information is available online.4. Re-write your notes.Studies have shown that writing information out by hand increases your ability to remember the material. This makes the recall go hand-in-hand with muscle memory. ___40___These are the four most effective study habits, and something all successful students do. Make sure you are on top of your game by following these study methods!A．Watch related lectures and videos.B．One method of revising is to make a mind-map.C．Use these graded tests to create a new practice test.D．Having these great study habits can make things easier.E．However, it’s actually an ineffective method of preparing and stud ying.F．Flashcards are designed to improve active memory recall of information.G．You will be able to picture your written notes when you are taking the exam.How to keep your child interested in Space ScienceDoes your child wish to explore our galaxy (星系)? Does Space Science fascinate him?____41____. Instead, keep fuelling his interest. Read on to find out what you should do. Firstly, both you and your child should understand that working at a space centre doesn’t mean being an astronaut (宇航员) alone. Staff at space centres include mathematicians. scientists, accountants. human resource personnel, educators and soon. ____42____ , your child might even get to send someone into space. Excelling in academics and physical fitness are the key points for being selected as candidates (候选人). Keeping these in mind, let’s take a look at four ways to keep fuelling your child’s interest in Space Science.1. Read books. ____43____ , introduce your child to them early on. Nothing like books can transport your little ones into the fascinating world of space.2. Attend space-themed parties. Plan birthday or house parties on the theme of space. Involve your child and, maybe, his friends or cousins, in getting the props, settings and costumes ready. ____44____. That way, the preparation will be a learning experience for your child.3. Go on field trips. Why not visit planetariums (天文馆) and space centres for holiday outings with your child? ____45____. Your child will get to see space scientists at work and even get to watch special documentaries at the site.4. Watch special space events. Whenever there is a satellite launch or an eclipse, make sure you get your child to watch it. If you can do it live, there is nothing like it. The run-up to the count-down will surely excite your child.With all these activities, you can surely keep your child’s interest in Space Science alive.A．You can combine fun and learningB．If not actually stepping into spaceC．Try to go ‘home-made’ as far as possibleD．Do not prevent him from dreaming bigE．If your child is drawn towards Space ScienceF．Teach them not only to ask questions but how to research answersG．Whether it is science fiction or general knowledge books related to spaceHabits to Be a Highly Effective StudentSome students are able to get straight A’s and at the same time serve as the president of three clubs. However, some students struggle to keep their GPA (Grade-Point Average) above a 3.0. And they seem to spend all of their time in studying. Although it’s true that everyone’s IQ is different, good study habits are very important. ___46______47___ If you haven`t had a planner(规划薄), get one. Many people use their computers and smartphones to make a schedule. The problem with that approach is that they are major distractions(分心的事物). Instead, get an old-fashioned paper and pen planner.Create a weekly schedule. ___48___ Include time that will be spent eating, sleeping and doing anything not related to school work. That way you know exactly how much you can accomplish each day.Take frequent, short breaks. Taking a break from studying for 15 minutes every hour will helpkeep you refreshed. ___49___ If you don’t take a break, you may find yourself daydreaming or even falling asleep. Take some time for some water, a snack or a quick chat with a friend.Take care of yourself. During final exam week, it is common for students to fall behind on sleep and meals. Make sure you get a good night’s sleep and have regular meals. Studying while hungry or sleepy is ineffective and will slow you down in the long run. Also try to make time for friends and family. ___50___.A．Keep things organized.B．Keep away from your computers.C．Of course, not everyone needs breaks.D．Our brains are not meant to work for hours nonstop.E．Having a good support system will help with all the stress.F．Here are several habits you should adopt to get good grades.G．Then under each day, make a list of things to do each hour.【参考答案】***试卷处理标记，请不要删除1．无1、D牝2、B牝3、F牝4、G牝5、E【导语】这是一篇说明文。

河北省武邑中学2020学年高一英语下学期课练5（实验班）阅读理解AI was stuck in O'hare airport on an extremely long weather delay, pacing up and down the waiting hall for some exercise, when I passed a wine bar for the twentieth time or so. But this time there was a young woman behind the piano, playing what I could only describe as absolutely beautiful classical music. She had not been there ten minutes earlier when I passed.I sat down at an empty table for four very near the piano, and began to be warmed by her music and a bit by the wine! She played so effortlessly and with such beauty in every note. Her music immediately brought a huge smile to my face!Soon, on a break, I thanked her and she told me that after a long day traveling, and now also facing long weather delays, she "just needed to blow off some steam." Wow! Her version of blowing off steam was a gift to get.As I sat alone drinking my wine, absorbed in this young woman's celebration of her musical passion, two women approached my table an d asked if they could join me. I invited them to sit and we immediately began sharing our love of music and celebrating the happiness the piano music was bringing us at that moment.The two women and I began to talk about our travels, life journeys, and passions. Hearing that unbelievable pian o music, and then meeting such interesting women, who generously shared with me their wisdom, perspectives, and feelings of love for each other, was truly joyous. Faced with an 11- hour travel day -- to get what normally takes 45 minutes --could have been physically and emotionally exhausting. Rather, by accident of walking by awine bar at the right moment, and having a couple of seats open at my table, my life was filled with joy.I will cherish those moments for some time to come. This experience highlights (突出) the critical need in our lives to stop and listen to the music, to invite others to sit at your life table, to open yourself up to a stranger or two, sharing some of your deepest perspectives and experiences. Be open to noticing, absorbing, and also contributing to the joy around you!21.What does the underlined phrase “blow off some steam” in Paragraph 3probably mean?A. Reduce anger.B. Relax herself.C. Make full use of time.D. Breathe fresh air.22. How long was the author’s travel supposed to take without weather delay?A. 10 minutes.B. 20 minutes.C. 45 minutes.D.11 hours.23. How did the author feel about the experience in the airport?A. Happy and meaningful.B. Lonely but unforgettable.C. Boring and meaningless.D. Long and tiring.24. The author writes the text in order to encourage people _______.A.to make the acquaintance of strangersB.to share your experienceswith othersC.to communicate with others more oftenD.to notice and enjoy thehappiness around youBWhile your pet fish may appear to be ignorant of your presence, chances are that it knows you extremely well and can probably even identify you from a crowd of human faces! At least, that is the conclu sion reached by scientists the University of Oxford in the U.K. and the University of Queensland in Australia, following an extensive study of the archerfish (喷水鱼), a speciesof tropical fish that can be found all the way from India to Indonesia, the Philippines, and Australia.The ability to distinguish between human faces is a complex task. That’s because we all have the same basic features —two eyes sitting above a nose and a mouth. It’s only the subtle differences that make humans disti nct from one another. Since this requires a combination of both visual sense and memory, researchers had always assumed that it was a skill possessed only by those with complicated brains, i.e., human s, a few select animals —such as horses, cows, dogs, monkeys and some birds, like pigeons.To test if this assumption was accurate, a team of scientists led by Dr. Cait Newport, Marie Curie Research Fellow in the Department of Zoology at Oxford University, decided to study fish. The aquatic (水生的) animals have small brains that lack the neocortex（大脑新皮层）, or neocortex-like structure, believed to help recognize the subtle differences between human facial features.The team began by presenting four archerfish with images of two human faces. Initially, the fish spat randomly at both. However, they soon learned that pouring water at the one selected by the researchers earned them a food treat. After that, they focused primarily on that image. The researchers then took the experiment one step further, by introducing 44 other human faces to the mix.To th e researcher’s astonishment, the trained archerfish were able to recall the learned image almost 81% of the time. And this accuracy improved to 86% when the researchers made the identification even harder, by replacing the colored photos with a set of black and white images and hiding the shape of the head.25. What is the conclusion of the study made by the scientists from theuniversities?A. Some fish may ignore your presence.B. Some fish can recognizeyour faces.C. Some fish have complicated brains.D. Some fish have large brains.26. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.The ability to distinguish between human faces.B. A combination of visual sense and memory.C.The ability of memorizing complicated things.D.The ability of telling beasts from birds.27. In the experiment, the researchers trained the archerfish _______.A. by taking photos of fishB. by improving people’s imagesC. by rewarding them with foodD. by covering their headsCFallingwater is a house built over a waterfall in Southwestern Pennsylvania.

But designer Mikhail Belyae v doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in your getting wet. That’s why he created Lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella.The designer says he came up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “Once, I was driving on a central Saint Pet ersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy (伞蓬) built into a street lamp,” he said.The Lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand. Sensors (传感器) ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians (行人) shelter whenever it starts raining.In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360° motion sensor on the fiberglass street lamp which detects whether anyone is using the Lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed.According to the designer, the Lampbrella would move at a relatively lowspeed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lightning strike. Each Lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.While there are no plans to take Lampbrella into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be installed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.32. For what purpose did Belyaev create the Lampbrella?A. To predict a heavy rain.B. To check the weatherforecast.C. To protect people from the rain.D. To remind people to take anumbrella.33. What do we know from Belyae v’s words in Pa ragraph 2?A. His creation was inspired by an experience.B. It rains a lot in the cityof Saint Petersburg.C. Street lamps are protected by canopies.D. He enjoyed taking walksin the rain.34. Which of the following shows how the Lampbrella works?A. motor→canopy→sensorsB. s ensors→motor→canopyC. motor→sensors→canopyD. canopy→motor→sensors35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The designer will open a company to promote his product.B. The Lampbrella could be put into immediate production.C. The designer is confident that his creation is practical.D. The Lampbrella would be put on show in Moscow.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）As a parent, you must have a lot of concerns regarding the various skills you would like your child to acquire. Music is one of them. 36 On the other hand, it is great for a child’s overall development if he or she has an interest in the fine arts.37 It is well known that they stay out of trouble as teenagers and young adults if they have music as a serious interest. The concentration helps them with their grades. Their learning and communication skills are better than those of their peer group. They also develop lots of confidence and self-esteem.Another advantage of your child learning music becomes obvious only at a later stage. 38 It can be very beneficial and many top musicians had a very early exposure to music and credit this with their later successes.You can start when your child is only a baby, by exposing him or her to a wide range of music at home. 39 And you could sustain (维持) your child’s interest by having the both of you singing together.Some parents start their children on a musical instrument as early as 3 years of age. This i s great if the child is having a good time. It goes without saying that you should not have to drag your child to lessons. You can be sure that nothing productive will come out of it. 40 .If you start your child on music lesson by the age of 5, taking care to encourage her and not to push her, your child will grow up into an accomplished adult with a well-rounded personality.A.
