2006全国高考英语I真题(附答案)
阅读理解Most people think of racing when they see greyhounds(灰狗)and believe they need lots of ex- ercise. They can actually be quite lazy! Greyhounds are good at fast races but not long-distance run- ning. They do need regular exercise but they like to run for a short burst and then get back on the bed or a comfortable seat. Another misunderstanding is that greyhounds must be aggressive(好斗的)because they are big in size. In fact greyhounds love people and are gentle with children.Greyhounds can live for 12 – 14 years but usually only race for two or three years, and after that they make great pets. They don’t need a lot of space, don’ t make a lot of noise, and don’ t eat a lot for their size.Normally , greyhounds can be as tall as 90 cm. There is , however, a small-sized greyhound, which stands only 33 cm. Greyhounds come in a variety of colors. Grey and yellowish-brown are the most common. Others include black, white, blue, red and brown or a mix of these.Greyhounds have smooth body coats, low bod y fat and are very healthy. Because they’ re slim, (苗条的)they don’t have the leg problems like other dogs the same height . But they do feel the cold, especially since they would much rather be at home in bed than walking around outside.56.The text is written mainly .A.to tell people how to raise greyhoundsB.to let people know more about greyhoundsC.to explain why greyhounds are aggressiveD.to describe greyhounds of different colors57.It can be inferred that greyhounds .A.love big doghousesB.like staying in bed all dayC.make the best guard dogsD.need some exercise outdoors58.Why does the author say that greyhounds make great pets?A.They are big in size.B.They live a very long life.C.They can run races for some time.D.They are quiet and easy to look after.59.If you keep a pet greyhound, it is important _____________.A.to keep it slimB.to keep it warmC.to take special care of its legsD.to take it to animal doctors regularlyBMany years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas.I stopped at a gas station(加油站) about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christ-mas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership-a shop selling cars-was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?” I asked and exp lained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.“Thank you”-two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.60.The author planned to stop at Oklahoma City _______.A.to visit a friendB.to see his parentsC.to pay or the cash registerD.to have more gas for his car61.The words “took off ” underlined in Paragraph 2 mean “________”.A.turned offB.moved offC.put upD.set up62.What happened when the author found smoke coming out of his car?A.He had it pulled back to the gas station.B.The couple sent him a business card.C.The couple offered to help him.D.He called his friend for help.63.The battery of the author’s car was dead because _______.A.something went wrong with the lightsB.the meeting lasted a whole dayC.he forgot to turn off the lightsD.he drove too long a distance64.By telling his own experiences, the author tries to show _______.A.how to write a thank-you letterB.how to deal with car problemsC.the kind-heartedness of older peopleD.the importance of expressing thanksCA study of English learning problems was carried out among a total of 106 foreign students. It shows that most students considered understanding spoken English to be their biggest problem on ar-rival. This was followed by speaking. Writing increased as a problem as students discovered difficult- ties in writing papers that they were now expected to hand in. Reading remained as a significant(显著的)problem.The information gained helped us in determining where special attention should be paid in our course. Although many students have chosen to join the course with a reasonable motivation(动机), we considered it important to note what seemed to encourage interest. Nearly all the students have experienced some kind of grammar-based English teaching in their own country. To use the same method would be self-defeating because it might reduce motivation, especially if it has failed in the past. Therefore a different method may help because it is different.Variety of activity was also seen as a way of maintaining(保持)or increasing motivation. Sev- eral years ago we had one timetable that operated throughout, but we soon found that both the students and the teachers lost interest by about halfway through the ten weeks. This led us to a major re-think, so finally we brought it into line with the expressed language needs of the students.65.What is the text mainly about?A.Foreign students have more problems.B.There are many ways to improve English.C.Teaching should meet students’ needs.D.English learning problems should be studied again.66.Writing became a bigger problem when foreign students ___________.A.had to write their papersB.became better at speakingC.became less interested in readingD.had fewer problems with listening67.We may infer from the last two paragraphs that ___________.A.different teaching methods should be usedB.grammar-based teaching seems to be encouragingC.English courses are necessary for foreign studentsD.teaching content should be changed halfway68.The word “it” underlined in the last paragraph refers to “___________”.A.re-thinkB.activityC.motivationD.timetableDSince my retirement(退休) from teaching music in 2001, I have spent a good deal of time painting as an artist. I actually began drawing again in the summer of 1995 when my father died, so perhaps I was trying to recover from the loss of my father, or maybe it was just that it brought back memories of him. In any case, I drew animals and landscapes(风景画) much influ-enced(影响) by Krenkel and St. John for five years.For some strange reason, I had been waiting until my retirement to start doing watercolors again, but as soon as I walked out of the school door for the last time I picked up my brushes and rediscovered Andrew Wyeth, who quickly became my favorite artist. I had looked through all the art books I had on my shelves and found his watercolors to be the closest to how I thought good watercol-ors should look. So I painted landscapes around Minnesota for three years and tried out many other types of painting. However, watercolors remained my first choice, and I think I did my best work there, showing my painting at a number of art exhibitions.Art is now together with my piano playing and reading. There is a time for everything in my world, and it is wonderful to have some time doing what I want to do. As Confucius once said, “At seventy I can follow my heart’s desire.”69.What is the text mainly about?A.Learning to paint in later life. B.How to paint watercolors.C.An artist-turned teacher. D.Life after retirement70.The author started drawing again in 1995 because ___________.A.he hoped to draw a picture of his fatherB.he couldn’t stop missing his fatherC.he had more time after retirementD.he liked animals and landscapes71.We can infer from the text that the author ____________.A.had been taught by Krenkel and St. JohnB.painted landscapes in Minnesota for 5 yearsC.believed Wyeth to be the best in watercolorsD.started his retirement life at the age of seventy72.How does the author probably feel about his life as an artist?A.Very enjoyable. B.A bit regretful.C.Rather busy. D.Fairly dull.。

He had a few farms and about twenty people worked for him. He often told them to work hard and be honest.One day he went to a farm and worked with the workers there. Soon after that it was time for lunch. He put several pieces of nice cakes on the table and went out. A few minutes later he came in again, but couldn’t find them.“Who’s eaten the cakes on the table?” he shouted.Some of the workers answered, “ We haven’t.”\The others said, “ We’ve seen nothing.”“Well,”said Mr Smith, “There’re a lot of mice in the rooms, you know. So I put some poison in the cakes. I want to kill them today.”As soon as he spoke, four workers began to cry, “ Oh, dear!’“ What’s wrong with you, young men?” asked Mr Smith.“ We’ve eaten the cakes, sir,” one of them said, “ We’ve got a bad stomachache! We’re going to die!”“Don’t worry,” Mr Smith said with a smile, “I’ve played a joke on you. I didn’t put anything in the cakes. Be honest, young men!”Hearing this, the young men’s faces turned red and stopped crying at once.( )36. Mr Smith was______A. a poor workerB. a rich workerC. a poor farmerD. a rich farmer( )37.

At last_________________A.the four workers were sent awayB.Mr Smith found the nice cakesC.Mr Smith found a way to kill the miceD.the four workers felt shyBThirty years ago, Lake Ponkapog in Hartwell, New Jersy, was full of life. Many birds and animals lived beside the water, which was full of fish. Now there are few birds, animals, and fish. The lake water is polluted. It is in a colour of dirty brown, and it is filled with strange plants.How did this happen? First, we must think about how water gets into Lake Ponkapog. When it rains water comes into the lake from all around. In the past there were forests all around Lake Ponkapog, so the rain water was clean.Now there are many homes around the lake. People often use chemicals in their gardens. They use other chemicals inside their houses for cleaning or killing insects. There are also many businesses. Businesses use chemicals in their machines or shops. Other chemicals fall onto the ground from cars or trucks. When it rains, the rain water picks up all the chemicals from home and businesses and then carries them into the lake. They pollute the water and kill the animals.Boats on the lake are also a problem. Lake Ponkapog is a popular place for motorboats. But oil and gas from boats often get into the lake. So more bad chemicals go into the water this way.People in Hartwell are worried. They love their lake and want to save it. Will it possible? A clean lake is possible only if people are more careful about chemicals at home and at work. They must also be more careful about gas and oil and other chemicals on the ground. And they mustn’t use motor boats any more on the lake. All these may change people’s lives. Only then can Lake Ponkapog be a beautiful, clean lake again.( )41. In the past, the water in Lake Ponkapog was made cleanby________.A. forestsB. rainC. birdsD. fish( )42. Chemicals from homes and businesses______A. are always cleanB. can help the animalsC. are good for the lakeD. get into the rainwater( )43. Cleaner rainwater will mean_______A. more boats on the lakeB. more dirty things in the lakeC. a cleaner lakeD. a dirtier lake( )44.To save Lake Ponkapog, people need to ______A.be more careful about chemicalsB. use less waterC.grow fewer plants in the gardensD. use more motorboats on the lake( )45. The passage is about______A.boats on Lake PonkapogB.why the water is dirty in Lake PonkapogC. clean rainwaterD. dirty waterC1.“In my country , men usually go to restaurants on their own. They always take their shoes off before they go in. Then they usually sit on the floor around a small, low table. In the evening they often sing songs.”2.“You usually take chocolates or flowers. But you always take an odd number of flowers, and you remove the paper before you give them to the hostess(女主人).You can also send flowers before you arrive. You don’t usually take wine except when you visit very close friends.”3.“We always offer our guests something to drink when they arrive, tea, coffee or perhaps water or soft drinks. We think it is polite to accept a drink even if you’re not thirsty. If you visit someone, you always stay for a few drinks. When you have had enough to drink, you tap your cup or put your hand over it. If you say no, your host will insist(坚持) that you have more to drink.”4.“People’s private lives are very important so they never ask you personal questions about your family or where you live or your job. They never talk about religion or matters of finance(财政), education or politics, but usually stay with safe subjects like the weather, films, plays, books and restaurants.”5.“It’s difficult to know when to leave, but an evening meal usually lasts about three or four hours. When the host serves coffee, this is sometimes a sign that the evening is nearly over, but you can have as much coffee as you want.”6.“If the invitation says eight o’clock then we arrive exactly at eight. With friends we know well, we sometimes arrive about fifteen minutes earlier.”7.“Clearly it depends on the occasion, but most dinner parties are informal(非正式的). The men don’t usually wear a suit, but they may wear a jacket and tie. Women are usually smart but casual.”46. The writer of the passage is probably ______.A. ChineseB. JapaneseC. EnglishD. American47. What should you take when you are invited to have dinner?A. Wine and cigarettes.B. Tea or drinks.C. Money and presents.D. Chocolates or flowers.48. Which of the following subjects should NOT be talked among people?A. Politics, education, religion.B. Books or plays.C. Restaurants.D. The weather or films.49. When the hostess serves coffee after meal, it means ______.A. the evening meal will start at onceB. the guests can stay longerC. the evening meal has ended and it’s time for guests to leaveD. there is not any tea or other drinks50. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. If you are invited to dinner, you should usually arrive on time.B. You should take off your shoes first after you step into the host’s door.C. The hostess always offers the guests something to drink when they arrive.D. You should accept the hostess’ drink even if you’re not thirsty.DThe French eat differentlyMany people believe that French people are very different from Americans. This is certainly true where eating habits are concerned! According to a report by the World Health Organization, each year French people eat four times more butter than Americans. The French also eat twice as much cheese! In addition, they eat more vegetables, potatoes, grain and fish. Yet, despite the fact that they eat larger amounts of these foods, the French take in about the same number of calories each day as Americans. (French and American men consume about 2,500 calories each day. Frenchand American women take in about 1,600 calories daily.)How can this be? If the French are eating more of certain types of foods, shouldn’t this add up to more calories? And why are so few French people overweight compared to Americans? The answer: Americans consume 18 times more refined sugar than the French, and drink twice as much whole milk! Although many Americans believe the French end up each meal with grand and gooey desserts, this just isn’t so. Except for special occasions, dessert in a typical French home consists of fresh fruit or cheese. Many American families, on the other hand, like to end their meals with a bowl or two of ice cream or another sweet treat.It’s believed that this difference in the kind of calories consumed ? rather than in the total number of calories taken in ? is what causes many Americans to be chubby and most French people to be skinny.Questions:51. Name six types of foods French people eat more each year than Americans.52. How many calories does the average French man consume each day?53. How much whole milk does the average French person drink compared to the average American?54. How much more refined sugar do Americans eat than the French?55. What do French families usually eat for dessert?第四部分:改错(共10分,每空1分)并注意格式Tom and Jack are next door neighbors who all work 56_______in same office, so they often walk together to and from 57_______ work. One day afternoon, they were walking home58______together while it started to rain. Tom quickly opened59_______his umbrella and said proudly, “My wife surely has great60______foresight.

There were many of these golden mountains of dust covering that part of the yard right down to the blue lake. That afternoon, bored with having nothing else to do, all the fellows followed Michael up the ladder to the roof of the old building and they sat with their legs hanging over the edge looking out across the lake. Suddenly Michael said, “I dare you to jump down,” and without thinking about it, he pushed himself off the roof and fell on the sawdu st where he lay rolling around and laughing. “I dare you all!” he shouted. “You're all cowards,” he said, encouraging them to follow him. Still laughing, he watched them looking down from the roof, white-faced and hesitant, and then one by one they jumped and got up grinning with relief.In the hot afternoon sunlight they all lay on the sawdust pile telling jokes till at last one of the fellows said, “Come on up on the old roof again and jump down.” There wasn't much enthusiasm among them, but they all went up to the roof again and began to jump off in a determined, desperate way till only Michael was left and the others were all down below grinning up at him calling, “Come on, Mike. What's the matter with you?” Michael wanted to jump down there and be with them, but he remained on the edge of the roof, wetting his lips, with a silly grin on his face, wondering why it had not seemed such a long drop the first time. For a while they thought he was only fooling them, but then they saw him clenching his fists tight. He was trying to count to ten and then jump, and when that failed, he tried to take a long breath and close his eyes. In a while the fellows began to laugh at him; they were tired of waiting and it was getting on to dinnertime. “Come on, you're a coward, do you think we're going to sit here all night?” they began to shout, and when he did not move they began to get up and walk away, still shouting. “Who did this in the first place? What's the matter with you all?” he called.But for a long time he remained on the edge of the roof, staring unhappily and steadily at the ground. He remained all alone for nearly an hour while the sun, like a great orange ball getting bigger and bigger, rolled slowly over the grey line beyond the lake. His clothes were wet from nervous sweating. At last he closed his eyes, slipped off the roof, fell heavily on the pile of sawdust and lay there a long time. There were no sounds in the yard, the workmen had gonehome. As he lay there he wondered why he had been unable to jump; and then he got up slowly and walked home feeling deeply ashamed and wanting to avoid everybody.Questions:51. Why did the boys first decide to climb onto the roof of the building?A. To test their courage.B. To pass the time.C. To keep out of the way of the workmen.D. To get a better view of the woods.52.

He wanted his friends to go away.54. How did Michael's friends react when he didn't jump?A. They left immediately.B. They were not surprised.C. They remembered how they had felt themselves.D. They thought he was joking.55.

Read the passages carefully, then answer the questions in a maximum of 10 words. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 61-65 are based on the following passage.There are some very good things about open education. This way of teaching allows the students to grow as people, and to develop their own interests in many subjects. Open education allows students to be responsible for their own education, as they are responsible for what they do in life. Some students do badly in a traditional classroom. The open classroom may allow them to enjoy learning. Some students will be happier in an open education school. They will not have to worry about grades or rules. For students who worry about these things a lot, it is a good idea to be in an open classroom.But many students will not do well in an open classroom. For some students, there are too few rules. These students will do little in school. They will not make good use of this type of education. Because open education is so different from traditional education, these students may have a problem getting used to making so many choices. For many students it is important to have some rules in the classroom. They worry about the rules even when there are none. Even a few rules will help this kind of student. The last point about open education is that some traditional teachers do not like it. Many teachers do not believe in open education. Teachers who want to have an open classroom may have many problems at their schools.You now know what open education is. Some of its good points and bad points have been explained. You may have your own opinion about open education. The writer thinks that open education is a good idea, but only in theory. In actual fact, it may not work very well in a real class or school. The writer believes that most students, but of course not all students, want some structure in their classes. They want and need to have rules. In some cases, they must be made to study some subjects. Many students are pleased to find subjects they have to study interesting. They would not study those subjects if they did not have to.Questions:61. One good thing about open education is that it __________.62. Open education may be a good idea for the students who __________.63. Why will some students do little in an open classroom?64. What do many teachers think of open education?65. Give this passage an appropriate title.Passage TwoQuestions 66-70 are based on the following passage.“My advisor wants me to call him by his first name,” many foreign graduate students in the U.S. have said, “But I just can't do it. It doesn't seem right. I have to show my respect.”On the other hand, professors have said of foreign students, “They keep bowing and saying …Yes, sir, yes, sir.' I can hardly stand it. I wish they'd stop being so polite and just say what they have on their minds.”Differing ideas about formality and respect frequently complicate relationships between American professors and students from abroad, especially Asian students (especially female Asian students). The professors generally prefer informal relationships (sometimes, but not always, including the use of first names rather than titles and family names) and little acknowledgment of status differences. Many foreign students are used to more formal relationships and sometimes have difficulty bringing themselves to speak to their teachers at all, let alone addressing them by their given names.The characteristics of student-teacher relationships on American campuses vary somewhat, depending on whether the students involved are undergraduate or graduate students, and depending on the size and nature of the college. Graduate students typically have more intense relationships with their professors than undergraduates do; at smaller colleges student-teacher relationships are typically even less formal than they are at larger institutions.To say that student-teacher relationships are informal is not to say that there are no recognized status differences between the two groups. There are. But native American students may show their respect mainly in the vocabulary and tone of voice they use when speaking to teachers. Much of their behavior around teachers may seem to foreign students to be disrespectful. For example, American students will eat in class, read newspapers, and assume quite informal postures. Approve of such behavior, but they tolerate it. Students, after all, are individuals who have the right to decide for themselves how they are going to behave.Questions:66. When addressed by their given names, American professors think it __________.67. Many foreign students' politeness makes their American professors __________.68. What are the relationships like between students and professors at big American universities compared with smaller ones?69. What do you understand by the term “status differences” (Para.5)?70. What do American teachers think of their students' behavior in class?Section D Summary (10 points)Directions: In this part, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summary with the appropriate words from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.Questions 71-75 are based on the following passage.Wine can be made with red grapes or white grapes, and, especially in the case of red wines, a number of medical researchers have reported that a moderate amount of wine has certain health benefits. This may be one of the reasons why the number of people drinking wine has risen over the past years. As new wine shoppers browse the shelves of their local markets, they face a tough decision. Should they buy a wine with a cork or a screw top? And shoppers are not alone in their dilemma. Wineries are also facing tough choices in the best way to seal their products.The root of the problem lies in “cork taint.” Cork taint refers to a problem with wine that has been sealed with a bad cork. Traditionally, all corks are made from a special oak tree that grows around the Mediterranean. In the process of making the corks and sealing wine bottles, a certain type of mold may start to grow on some corks. Over time, this mold can produce a chemical that makes the wine inside the bottle taste musty. In fact, the human tongue is so sensitive to this particular compound that people can taste it even diluted up to six parts per trillion!How big is the problem of cork taint? Some experts from the wine industry claim cork taint affects one out of every ten bottles of wine. And as one spokesperson for an American winery says, “No other packaging industry in the world would put up with that kind of failure rate.”Some wine makers see a possible solution to the problem of cork taint through adopting the tried and true method of sealing bottles with screw tops. However, many wineries are still playing it safe and sticking to corks for two reasons. First, there is the old belief among cork users that small amounts of oxygen are able to penetrate corks. This oxygen, they say, is necessary for the proper aging of fine wines, especially those aged 10 years or more. Screw tops do not allow for any oxygen to get into the bottles after they are sealed.Another problem arises from the image screw tops have with the public. In most people's minds, screw tops are only found on cheap, low-quality wines. It will take a lot of effort from wineries to re-educate the public if they want to change the image of screw tops. In addition, there is the problem of losing the romantic, elegant mood produced by the ceremonial popping of the cork. Consumers don't seem to feel the same thrill when unscrewing a top. Summary:The wine industry is facing a dilemma. What is the best way to (71)__________ wine bottles? Many people think that it is only (72)__________ for wine bottles to be sealed with corks. They think that oxygen needs to be able to penetrate the cork. Other experts, however, suggest that wineries change to (73)__________. Using corks can lead to cork taint, a bad taste in the wine caused by (74)__________. However, it is unlikely that the public will accept this solution. They will most likely (75)__________ buying wine with corks for the romantic image.Part VI Cloze (10 minutes, 15 points)Directions: There are 15 blanks in the passage.

Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.There is no doubt that the environment is in trouble. Factories burn fossil fuels which produce (76)ac rain, and this kills trees. At the same time, green house gases rise into the air and contribute to global (77)w , which threatens to melt the polar ice cap. Meanwhile farmers clear huge areas of rain forest in places such as the Amazon to produce feeding land for cattle or produce (78)w for building. Rivers and oceans are so heavily contaminated by industrial waste that it is no longer safe to go(79) sw . Cars pump out poisonous gases which we all have to breathe in. Poaching and overfishing are killing off millions of animals, including whales, elephants and other(80) end species. In fact, all around us, all living things large and small which comprise our finely balanced ecosystem are being systematically (81) des by human greed and thoughtlessness.There is a lot we can do, however, to help prevent this. The easiest thing, of course, is to (82) rec waste material such as paper and glass so that we can use it again. We should also check that the things we buy from (83) sup are packed in biodegradable packaging which decomposes easily. At the same time, we should make a conscious effort to avoid foods which are (84) gen modified. Of course, if you are truly committed to protecting the environment, you should only buy (85)org fruit and vegetables, safe in the knowledge that they have been naturally cultivated. Finally, we should buy a small car that uses unleaded petrol which is less (86)har to the environment or, even better, make more use of public transport.The serious (87) env , however, do much more. They are aware of the global issues involved and will actively involve themselves in conservation programmes by (88)m sure our forests are kept safe for future generations. They will (89)op activities which are harmful to animals. And they will campaign to keep the Green Belts around our towns and cities free from new building.We cannot all be as committed as them, but we can at least do our own little bit at grass roots level. We, as humans, have inherited the earth, but that doesn't mean we can do (90) wha we like with it.Part VII Translation (15 minutes, 15 points)Section A English-Chinese Translation (10 points)Directions: Translate the underlined sentences of the following passage into Chinese. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.To walk among the stars has been a dream of mankind since the beginning of time, and wandering among the heavens has inspired legends and fantasies across the ages. Today, that dream has become a reality, when we remember some of the greatest human achievements in history: walking on the moon, sending probes to distant planets and discovering the secrets behind the mysteries of the cosmos. (91) In the middle of the twentieth century, however, humans were at the halfway point between viewing space travel as a dream and as a reality. To them it was a goal rather than a fantasy, and the two main forces working toward that goal were the world's two superpowers, the Soviet Union and the United States.。
