He was astonished to discover that it was a mouse trap! Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse declared the warning, “There is a mouse trap in the house, there is a mouse trap in t he house.”The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said,“Mr Mouse, I can tell you this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me, I cannot be bothered by it.”The mouse turned to the pig and told him, “There is a mouse t rap in the house.”“I am so sorry, Mr Mouse,” sympathized the pig, “but there is nothing I can do about it but pray; be assure d that you are in my prayers.”The mouse turned to the cow, who replied, “A mouse trap, am I in grave danger, huh?”So the mouse returned to the house, head down and depress ed to face the farmer’s mouse trap alone.That very night a sound was heard throughout the house, like the sound of a mouse trap catching its prey. The farmer’s wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did notsee that it was an evil snake whose tail the trap had caught. T he snake bit the farmer’s wife. The farmer rushed her to the h ospital. She returned home with a fever. Now everyone knew to treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup’s main ingredient. His wif e’s sickness continued so that friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butche red the pig. The farmer’s wife did not get well, in fact, she died , and so many people came for her funeral. The farmer had th e cow slaughtered to provide meat for all of them to eat.So the next time you hear that someone is facing a problem a nd think that it does not concern you, remember that when the least of us is threatened, we are all at risk.21. We may infer that the passage is most probably a ______.A. fairy taleB. fableC. science fictionD. news report22. We could see from the passage that the mouse was ____ __.A. kind and warm-heartedB. well-informedC. good at cheating othersD. foolish and rude23. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage ?A. The pig was comparatively less friendly than the others in the farmyard.B. The mouse trap that the mouse discovered was not a pract ical one.C. The farmer and his wife trapped an evil snake that night.D. The farmer’s family was in fact poor and they had no friend s.24. The underlined word “ingredient” (Paragraph 7) refers to ______.A. the mouseB. the pigC. the snakeD. the chickenBIt might sound unbelievable that two kids under the age of ten would choose to hang out at a hotel instead of going to Disne y World, just minutes away, but that’s exactly what happened when we visited the new Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Wa lt Disney World Resort last month. What kind of a hotel makes kids forget about Disney World?Check In: As I was signing the necessary paperwork at the fro nt desk, my kids were taken away by Wayne, the receptionist, to a large interactive map of the resort in the entrance hall. u sed the touch screen to show the kids the entire resort and tal ked about all ofthe fun things to do, like the kid’s club, the waterslides, and the game room. I’ve never seen so much attention paid to the kids at check-in — such a cool touch.The Room: Not only were there kid-sized robes in the room, there were play things, NatGeo Kids magazines, chocolate lollypops, and milk chilling in the refrige rator. Plus, the room was designed from a family perspective. The sinks and shower settings were easily reachable, and the king bed and very comfortable sofa pull-out could easily fit a family of four, if not five. We had plenty of room.The Pools: There’s a large shallow infinity pool. There’s a me andering lazy river. There’s a water park. There’s an area for pool volleyball and basketball. And there are two very fun wat erslides. We spent many hours roaming among them all, and j ust hanging out in a private teepee-shaped cabana next to the waterslides. So fun!No Surcharges: There’s no resort fee. If you want to use one of the cool cabanas around the pools, it’s included. For the kid s club, you can use it as much or as little as you want to and t he Hideout game room has a lot of activities, like pinball, at no cost. We took advantage of pretty much everything around th e hotel except for the spa, and our final bill only showed our r oom charges, taxes, and meals. And if my kids were still under five, their meals would have been free.25. The passage is written by the author mainly to ________.A. advertise a hotel at Walt Disney World ResortB. introduce the good service Walt Disney providesC. recall the experience that they once had in a hotelD. share information about a hotel near Disney World26. Customers don’t need to pay for ________ when they stay in the hotel.A. cool cabanasB. roomsC. the spaD. taxes27. What can we learn from the passage?A.The hotel isn’t an ideal choice for a family of more than four.B. The two kids of the author should have been over five year s old.C. The author spent hours playing pool volleyball and basketb all.D. The receptionist showed children around Disney World Re sort.CThe terrible college entrance exam is not only a big challenge for Chinese high school students, but also a very i mportant exam in the lives of South Korean students.Although the long, cold winter has already started in South K orea, the annual (一年一度的) national exams have made the atmosphere very heated. More than 675,000 South Korean high school graduates took the college entrance exam last Wednesday. They usually tak e exams in Korean, maths, sociology (社会学), history and foreign languages.Officially there is one college place for every 1.33 students. B ut because all the students want to go to the top universities in the country, the competition can reach one place for 10 stu dents. The students want to attend these colleges for both the ir famous names and better job opportunities.Because students face fierce competition, they have to study very hard to realize their dreams. Park Seung said he and his classmates often go to school before 7:30 am. After school ha s finished at 6:30 pm, most of them go to the library to continu e their study instead of returning home. Since many libraries i n are open 24 hours a day, they often stay long into the night. Many of the Senior 3 students only sleep for three to four hou rs a day.“I feel a lot of pressure，but I have to study very hard in order to make my dream com e true. This is my lifetime goal and it will be a turning point in my life which could decide mThe exam day is a very serious day for the whole of . Vehicles are not allowed within a 200-metre radius (范围) of allthe test sites to make sure the students have quiet surroundin gs. Tooting (吹奏) of horns is forbidden, even airplanes are ordered to avoid l anding and take-off near the test sites during listening comprehension test hou rs.Students are told their scores in December before they apply for college. This is followed by face-to-face oral tests. There are public and private universities in . M any private universities are well-known, but their fees can be 18, 000 yuan each term. This ha s made a lot of students think again.28. In South Korean ________.A. there is only one collegeB. there is only one top collegeC. there are only top universitiesD. there are a nu mber of colleges29. We can infer that there are almost ________ college places for high school graduates.A. 675, 000B. 507, 520C. 500, 000D. 600, 00030. Airplanes are not permitted to land near the test sites ____ ____.A. when the test begins B. when the test is going onC. during some period of the testD. during the tests31. Before students are allowed to colleges ________.A. they will be interviewedB. they will ask questions of collegesC. they will not be tested any moreD. first they will pay all the education fee at alDMany kids don't drink enough water daily, according to a new study. The study's lead author, Erica Kenney, at first planned to look into the amount of sugary drinks kids were drinking in schools. However, during her research she found that many ki ds were simply not drinking enough waterKenney and her team examined data from a group of 4,000 c hildren, aged 6 to19, between the years of 2009 and 2012. Th e data was taken from the National Health and Nutrition Survey,a study on the health of children in the conducted each yea r by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.While looking through the survey results, she noticed that more than half of the kid who took part in the study were dehy drated (脱水的). Of' that group, boys were 76% more likely than girls not to have enough water in their system.

at her old high school other than the green color on the walls．Akinosun won her medal with the 400﹣meter relay team at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro this summer．Her return to her high school recently included a chance for the young woman to tell what she's learned since running track for Wsubonsie more than fours year ago．Her first piece of advice to the crowd of students was asking them to listen to their parents．"They see things you can't see，"she said．"In high school I thought I was on the top of the world．"In Akinosun's case，her parents encouraged her to consider going to the University of Illinois，which at the time had a team that was coached by Olympic medal winner Tonja Buford﹣Bailey．"I wouldn't be where I am today without my parents，"she said．Her parents saw Buford﹣Bailey as a good fit to coach their daughter，somethingAkinosun said she didn't understand at the time．It didn't take long，however，for her to see they were right and she ended up following Buford﹣Bailey to the University of Texas at Austin when the coach took a job there．Akinosun admitted it was three years before she told her parents they were right．Becoming an excellent athlete who can take part in the Olympics needs serious dedication．She says her success came from viewing herself as an athlete﹣student instead of a student﹣athlete．"I always put track and field first，and then comes school，"Akinosun said．A social life comes last．"It's about sacrifices（牺牲）．You can't be on the track team unless you're chosen，"she added．Making athletics the most important thing in her life meant committing fully，no matter how she might feel on a given day．"I never missed a training session （环节）in my four years in college，"she said．"It's my job；it's what I do．Think about that when you want to sleep in．"21．Which of the following statements is TRUE about Akinosun according to the article？A．She was a big fan of Buford﹣Bailey in high school．B．She make up her mind to win Olympic medals in high school．C．She still doesn't want to admit that her parents helped her a lot．D．She is thankful to her parents for finding her the right coach．22．According to Akinosun，she became a successful athlete because．A．she had great confidence in herself．B．she always put training before anything else．C．she was pushed by her coach to train hard．D．she could keep a good balance between school and training．23．The underlined word"dedication"in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to．A．committing fullyB．knowing oneselfC．a clear purposeD．a strong desire24．What's the best title of the passage？A．How Akinosun spent her high school years．B．The story of Akinosun's success．C．Being an athlete is not easy．D．Akinosun's advice to her schoolmates．25．（6分）Getting ripped off from time to time is just part of traveling﹣﹣﹣don't let it ruin your day or your overall experience．But there are things you can do to avoid some of the most common rip﹣offs．Let me share my travel tips for how to avoid hidden fees，disappointed experiences and overpriced items．Baggage FeesDepending upon the airline，you can pay 15to75for the first checked bag，and more for overweight bags．When possible，pack a bag lightly enough to a carry﹣on or fly airlines that still allow free checked bags（two bags for Southwest and one for JetBlue）．Many airline programs allow members with a high status to have a free checked bag，so check your status．Overpriced Hotel and Airport FoodTo avoid the overpriced water sold at airports，bring an empty water bottle with you through security at the airport．Then，fill it up at a water fountain or ask a waiter at a coffee shop to fill it up for you．Pick up some snacks at a local corner store instead of hitting the hotel room mini bar，which can lead to expensive surprises on your final bill．Tourist Trap RestaurantsIf you're visiting a restaurant or attraction that has online presence，Google it or search it on Yelp to see what the locals say about it and to find any available coupons （优惠券）that might get some extra savings．Often restaurants run deals on Yelp where if you"check in"at that restaurant and review it，you get a free dessert or 15%off the total bill，etc．By researching online，you'll not only see whether there are any coupons or extra savings available，but people will tell you if the chef changed a month ago and the food is awful now．25．To have a free checked bag，you shall not．A．take a light carry﹣onB．have a high statusC．take overweight bagsD．choose Southwest Airlines26．If you want to drink free water at an airport，you can．A．take a bottle of water through securityB．go to a water fountainC．go to a store at the airportD．order a coffee at a coffee shop27．The passage is probably written by．A．a travel agentB．an economical personC．an experienced travelerD．a skilled net﹣worker．28．（8分）When The New Republic magazine predicted who would win the 2016Nobel Prize in literature on Oct.6，it said："Not Bob Dylan．That's for sure．" But the award came as a surprise to many．On Oct 13，the famous US musician was named the Nobel laureate by the Swedish Academy．He has"created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition"，according to the organization．Although Dylan，75，is not really thought to be a literary writer，he has given the world a lot of creative works over 50years，especially when it comes to his folk songs．In his 1985album Biograph，Dylan wrote about the appeal of folk music to him．Rocksongs"weren't serious enough or didn't reflect life in a realistic way"，according to Dylan．But folk，was"a more serious type of thing．The songs are filled with more sadness，more joy…much deeper feelings．"Dylan's music and lyrics（抒情诗）spoke to many people during the 1960s．His lyrics were often about great political issues，such as the civil rights movement．The 1960s were a time of change when the young were making sure that their voices were heard．The idea is most famously expressed in Dylan's The Times They Are a﹣Changin'（1964），which warns the world，"You better start swimming or you'll sink like a stone．For the times they are a﹣changin'!"There were complaints that a literary prize had been given to a singer．But ancient"Greek poets Homer ND Sappho wrote poetic works that were meant to be listened to，that were meant to be performed，often with instruments and it's the same way with Dylan"，the Swedish Academy's permanent secretary Sara Danius told CNN．It could even be said that giving the important prize to Dylan has brought back an old literary tradition．The millions whose lives Dylan's words and music have changed will surely welcome the award．28．Dylan found folk music attractive because．A．It brought joy to people．B．It could be used to express feelings freely．C．It reflected life on a much deeper level．D．It needed more creativity than other types of music．29．Which of the following statements is TRUE about Dylan according to the article？A．He never thought that he would win the Nobel Prize．B．Most of his influential works were created in the 1960s．C．His songs expressed people's feelings well during the 1960s．D．His fans were mostly young people who were active in political movements．30．According to the last two paragraphs，．A．lyrics can be seen as a literary form．B．a literary prize should not be given to a singer．C．Dylan's works were inspired by Greek poets．D．Dylan deserves the award because he influenced many song﹣writers．31．What's the author's attitude toward giving Bob Dylan the 2016 Nobel Prize in literature？A．supportiveB．objectiveC．doubtfulD．negative．32．（8分）Internet data shows that younger adults have become the main audience crazy about changing their appearance．Once the world of the female in her fifties，plastic surgery（整形手术）has become the focus of the younger Internet users．The recent death of Stephanie Kuleba，an 18﹣year﹣old high school cheerleader who died as a result of plastic surgery，brought our attention to the fashion of becoming a more"ideal"body among teenagers．In fact，search data confirms this phenomenon．One of the most popular sites visited from the search term"plastic surgery"is the official site of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons （www．plastic surgery．org）．Over 25% of the visitors，which is up from 19.6% two years ago，fell within the 18to 24years old．Plastic surgery has become an American obsession （痴迷）．Checking other countries，such as the UK and Australia，the 18to 24﹣year﹣old's being interested in plastic surgery is an obvious US phenomenon．Unlike the other groups who visit sites related to diseases and keeping healthy，younger Internet users rush to sites that deal with personal appearance，such as those focused on body﹣building，weight loss and skin﹣care，and obviously plastic surgery．While television on surgery may be driving the interest of a younger audience，one factor appears to be a key in preventing such teens from changing their bodies：the failing U．S．economy．There has been a decline in all plastic surgery topics over thelast year．While older age continue to search for information on procedures such as liposuction（抽脂），it's younger Internet users who in tough economic times are focusing on improving their outer beauty，though at a discount price．32．Why does the author mention the death of the 18﹣year﹣old cheerleader？A．To show cheerleaders pay more attention to their appearance．B．To warn people that plastic surgery is not as safe as it is said to be．C．To prove the fact that people will pursue beauty at any cost．D．To draw attention to the issue of young people having plastic surgery．33．While young people are surfing on the Internet，they are very interested in．A．how to be physically and mentally healthy．B．how to make themselves look young．C．how to prevent and cure diseases．D．how to have more attractive appearance．34．What may affect young people's decision on whether to have plastic surgery？A．The safety of the operationB．The total expense of the surgery．C．The need for having the operation．D．The results of the surgery．35．What can we learn from the last paragraph？A．Americans，old or young，are crazy about plastic surgery．B．Liposuction is the most expensive plastic surgery．C．Outer beauty means more to young people than inner beauty．D．Young people often get discount when having plastic surgery．36．（10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能放入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．Exercise is very important when it comes to dropping pounds．So if you're eager to lose weight，then here are three everyday changes that will help increase your calorieburn．Hello Sunshine（36）．Research shows that people who exercise in the morning work harder and for longer periods，which may be because they're clearer in thinking and more energetic and they don't feel as rushed as afternoon or evening exercisers．（37），which will help even more with your weigh﹣loss journey．（38）When it comes to

airport．Then，fill it up at a water fountain or ask a waiter at a coffee shop to fill it up for you．Pick up some snacks at a local corner store instead of hitting the hotel room mini bar，which can lead to expensive surprises on your final bill．Tourist Trap RestaurantsIf you're visiting a restaurant or attraction that has online presence，Google it or search it on Yelp to see what the locals say about it and to find any available coupons （优惠券）that might get some extra savings．Often restaurants run deals on Yelpwhere if you"check in"at that restaurant and review it，you get a free dessert or 15% off the total bill，etc．By researching online，you'll not only see whether there are any coupons or extra savings available，but people will tell you if the chef changed a month ago and the food is awful now．25．To have a free checked bag，you shall not C．A．take a light carry﹣onB．have a high statusC．take overweight bagsD．choose Southwest Airlines26．If you want to drink free water at an airport，you can

To test their skills in recognizing a suspect (嫌疑犯), the policeman showed the first lady a picture for five seco nds and then asked how she could recognize him. She thoug ht it easy, for the suspect had only one eye. The policeman fel t disappointed at this funny answer. He showed the second la dy the picture for five seconds and asked her how she would r ecognize him. The second lady giggled, flipped her hair, and s aid, “Ha! It's easy to find the oneeared person!” Her answer al so made the policeman angry. Turning to the third lady, he as ked, “This is your suspect, and how would you recognize him ?” He added quickly, “Think hard before giving a stupid answe r.” The third lady looked at the picture carefully for a momentand said, “Hmm...the suspect is wearing contact lenses (隐形眼镜).” The policeman was surprised and speechless, because he really didn't know himself if the suspect wore contacts or n ot. “Well, that is a good answer. Wait here for a few minutes w hile I check his file.” He left the room and went to his office, ch ecked the suspect's file in his computer and returned with a b eaming smile. “Wow! I can't believe it...It's TRUE! The suspec t does in fact wear contact lenses. Good work! How were you able to make such a wise observation?”“That's easy, ”the blo nde replied, “He can't wear glasses because he only has one eye and one ear!”1. Which of the following cannot conclude from the passage t hat detectives should have?A. They must be humorous.B. They must be pretty.C. Their observation must be keen.D.

He worked very hard and r eally wanted to take a holiday.He usually went to the seaside, but one day he saw an ad in a newspaper. “Enjoy country life. Spend a few weeks at Willow Farm. Good food, fresh air, horse riding, walking, fishing. Goo d prices.”“This sounds like a good idea,” he thought. “I'll spend a month at Willow Farm. I'll enjoy horse riding, walking and fishing. Th ey'll make a change from sitting by the seaside.”Four days later he returned home.“What's wrong with Willow Farm?”His friend Jack asked him. “Didn't you enjoy country life?”“Country life was fine,” Alan said, “but there was another problem.”“Oh,what?”“Well, the first day I was there a sheep died, and we had roast mutton for dinner.”“Fresh meat is the best.”“I know, but on the second day a cow died, and we had roast beef for dinner.”“Lucky you!”“You don't understand,” Alan said.“On the third day a pig died and we had roast pork for dinner.”“A different roast every day, ”Jack said.“Let me finish,” Alan said, “on the fourth day the farmer died a nd I didn't dare to stay for dinner!”4.

The prices were too high.COne of the simplest and the most effective forms of communic ation involves nothing more than the movement of facial musc les. What am I talking about? Smiling! Everyone understands what a smile means, and everyone also understands what a fr own means. In fact, these two basic facial expressions can be recognized across countries, across the world and across the globe, regardless of the language spoken or the culture lived in.Hugs are so beautiful! When you give someone a hug or som eone comes up and gives you a hug, this simple act of a hug can “speak” volumes about how much you care for the other p erson, how much love you want to share with the other perso n, how much you have missed the other person. This hug has so much to say, and yet there never has to be any words spo ken.And, who needs to say the words “yes” or “no” when a move ment of the head says the same thing. These basic examples show just how powerful body language can be. Just knowing how to read and use body language effectively, makes it reall y easy to see why it is not always a bad thing to be lost for wo rds.Body language in the world of love is a very common thing an d sometimes the only thing. And, most of the time, body langu age is the very first words “spoken” before any words are. The old saying is “love at first sight”, not “love at first word”. Acros s a crowded room, their eyes meet and linger, he winks at her , and she raises an eyebrow. The connection is made without any words needed. These displays of body language say it al l. In fact, sometimes they can say more than words can.8. How many kinds of body language are mentioned in the firs t two paragraphs?A. Three.B. Two.C. Four.D. Five.9.

He published his first song when he was eighteen years old. During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs.Many of Gershwin’s songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City. These plays were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s. Many of his songs have remained popular as ever. Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way — from jazz to country.In the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music. Could jazz, some people asked, be considered serious music? In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music. Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it. And in that short time, he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue. Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert. The audience were thrilled when they heard his music. It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.In 1928, Gershwin went to Paris. He applied to study composition (作曲)with the well-known musician Nadia Boulanger, but she rejected him. She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style. While there, Gershwin wrote An American in Paris. When it was first performed, critics (评论家)were divided over the music. Some called it happy and full of life, to others it was silly and boring. But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States. It still remains one of his most famous works.George Gershwin died in 1937, just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer. He was only thirty-nine years old. Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages. People mourned the loss of the man and all the music he might have still written.16. Many of Gershwin’s musical works were ________ .A．written about New Yorkers B．Composed for Paul WhitemanC．played mainly in the countryside D．performed in various ways17. What did Gershwin do during his stay in Paris?A．He created one of his best works B．He studied with Nadia BoulangerC．He argued with French critics D．He changed his music style18. What do we learn from the last paragraph?A．Many of Gershwin’s works were lostB．The death of Gershwin was widely reportedC．A concert was held in memory of GershwinD．Brain cancer research started after Gershwin’s death.19. Which of the following best describes Gershwin?A．Talented and productive B．Serious and boringC．popular and unhappy D．Friendly and honestBYou can't always predict a heavy rain or remember your umbrella. But designer Mikhail Belyaev doesn't think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you 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 and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy(伞篷)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)then ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians 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(安装) at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.While there are no plans to take the Lampbrella into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and insists his creation could be installed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.20. 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.21. What do we know from Belyaev's words in Paragraph 2?A. His creation was inspired by an experience.B. It rains a lot in the city of Saint Petersburg.C. Street lamps are protected by canopies.D. He enjoyed taking walks in the rain. 22. Which of the following shows how the Lampbrella works?A. motor→canopy→ sensorsB. sensors→motor→ canopyC. motor→sensors→ canopyD. canopy→motor→ sensorsCThe number of speakers of English in Shakespeare’s time is estimated(估计) to have been about five million. Today it is estimated that some 260 million people speak it as a native language, mainly in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. In addition to the standard varieties of English found in these areas, there are a great many regional and social varieties of the language as well as various levels of usage that are employed both in its spoken and written forms.In fact, it is impossible to estimate the number of people in the world who have acquired an adequate(足够的) working knowledge of English in addition to their own languages. The purpose for English learning and the situations in which such learning takes place are so varied that it is difficult to explain and still more difficult to judge what forms an adequate working knowledge for each situation.The main reason for the widespread demand for English is its present-day importance as a world language. Besides serving the indefinite needs of its native speakers, English is a language in which some of important works in science, technology, and other fields are being produced, and not always by native speakers. It is widely used for such purposes as meteorological and airport communications, international conferences, and the spread of information over the radio and television networks of many nations. It is a language of wider communication for a number of developing countries, especially former British colonies. Many of these countries have multilingual populations and need a language for internal communication in such matters as government, commerce, industry, law and education as well as for international communication and for entrance to the scientific and technological developments in the West.23. What would be the best title for this passage?A. The Difficulties of Learning EnglishB. International CommunicationsC. The Standard Varieties of EnglishD. English as a World Language24. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Some 260 million people in the world have an adequate working knowledge of English.B. There are some 260 million native speakers of English in the world.C. It is almost impossible to estimate the number of people with an adequate working knowledge of English.D. People learn English for a variety of reasons.25. According to the passage, what is the main reason for the widespread use of English?A. It was popular during Shakespeare’s time.B. It is used in former British colonies.C. It serves the needs of its native speakers.D. It is a world language that is used for international communication.七选五阅读短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

新疆库尔勒市2017届高三英语周测15第一部分：阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）AIt was an early September day, cool and bright and just right for running, and I was in the first few miles of a 10-mile race over a course（路线） with a few high hills. Still, I felt energetic; despite the hills it was going to be a fine run.Just ahead of me was Peggy Mimno, a teacher from Mount Kiseo, New York. She too was running easily, moving along at my speed. The pace felt comfortable, so I decided to stay where I was; why pay attention to pace when she was setting such a nice one? I'd overtake（追上）her later on when she was tired.So I ran behind her. The course headed north for miles, wandered west for a hilly mile, then turned south again along a winding road. The race was getting harder. We had four miles left and already it was beginning to be real work.Peggy overtook a young runner. She seemed to know him, for they exchanged a few cheerful words as she passed him. Their exchange worried me. You don’t chat during a race unless you are feeling good, and Peggy plainly was.Still, I was close enough to overtake her if she was tired, so I didn’t give up hope completely. We were getting nearer to a long, punishing hill now and it would be the test. We were a mile from the finish line, so whatever happened on the hill would almost determine who crossed it first.As I moved up the hill, my attention wandered for a few minutes. When I looked up, Peggy was moving away—first five yards, then ten, then more. Finally it was clear that there was no help of catching her. She beat me soundly.There is an important lesson in that race. Women are thought to be weaker, slower and not nearly as skilled in sport. Yet as Peggy Mimno so clearly showed, the similarities between men and women runners are more important than differences. I have run with a number of women, and I can say it is often hard work.1. What worried the writer when Peggy greeted the young runner?A. Peggy overtook the young runner.B. Peggy was running energetically.C. Peggy was laughing as the writer.D. Peggy paid no attention to the writer.2. By saying “a long, punishing hill” (Paragraph 5) , the writer implies that_______.A. Peggy would fail to reach the hilltopB. men are more skilled at climbing hillsC. overtaking Peggy would be easyD. climbing the hill would be a demanding task3. What lesson does the writer learn from the race?A. Women are as good as men in sport.B. Women are better at climbing hills.C. He should have more training in a race.D. He should set a quicker pace at thebeginning of a race.BAn app that does nothing but send a simple notification(通知)of “Yo” to recipients(接收者)is the most popular app right now in the US.The app，named Yo，reached No.1 in the Apple App Store in the US last week，after The Financial Times broke the story on June 18 that the app has received $1 million(6.23 million yuan) in investment funding.Created in just eight hours by Or Arbel，a 32 year old app developer from Tel Aviv，Israel，Yo claims to be the “simplest and m ost efficient communication tool in the world”．With a single tap，users can send the word “Yo” to one another in a voice notification—and nothing else.Yo was launched on April Fools' Day this year but many people still see the app as a joke now，including some technology experts，like Polly Mosendz from The Wire and Judd Legum from Think Progress.David Shapiro，from The New Yorker，says now when he thinks about someone，he just “Yos” them instead of spending time starting and carrying on a conversation. He says it's a great way of saying：“I'm thinking about you but I don't have anything in particular to say.”Social media constantly demands our time and attention. Not replying to text messages and emails can hurt relationships. But，Shapiro says，a “Yo” doesn't seem to demand a reply. “What a relief，”he says.Andrew Leonard，from The Salon，says “Yo” also “expresses our most essential humanity”．He says that the word “Yo” is “a declaration(宣言)，first，that I exist in this world，and second，that I seek connection and community with something outside myself.”It's like saying：“Yo...I am here. Is anybody out there？”4. According to the passage，we know________.A. not everyone is in favor of YoB. Yo was launched on April Fools' Day to fool peopleC. Yo has been used widelyD. not everyone can afford the app5. According to Paragraph 5, we can conclude David Shapiro________.A. doesn't like using YoB. thinks Yo can save timeC. thinks it's polite not to reply to text messagesD. dislikes using latest equipment6. What Andrew Leonard says means Yo______.A. is the simplest communication toolB. will be popularC. can express something deeperD. will be sold all over the world7. From the passage，we can infer________.A. Yo is far from satisfactoryB. Yo has many functionsC. Yo received little investmentD. it's easy to operate YoCBeauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants. But in the executive (主管的) circle , beauty can become a liability .While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman.Handsome male executives were considered having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success.Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty thanunattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck.All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine (女性的，娇柔的) and has an advantage in traditionally female jobs , but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the “manly” qualifies required .This is true even in politics, “When the only clue is how he or she looks , people treat men and women differently,” says Anne Bowman , who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates (候选人). She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes .8. The underlined word in the first paragraph “ liability” most probablymeans .A．disadvantage B．advantage C．misfortune D．trouble9. Bowman’s experiment shows that when it comes to politics ,attractiveness .A. turns out to be a disadvantage to menB. is more of a disadvantage than anadvantage to womenC. has as little effect on men as on womenD. affects men and women alike10. It can be inferred from the passage that people’s views on beauty areoften .A．practical B．supportive C．old-fashioned D．one-sided11.The author writes this passage to .A. give advice to job-seekers who are attractiveB. discuss the disadvantages ofbeing attractiveC. demand equal rights for womenD. state the importance of appearanceDWhen I was small and my grandmother died, I couldn't understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laughs turned into crying.So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing are controlled by the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so does crying.Whatever helps us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional health, and crying seems to work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don't even know we're very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.Just as crying can be healthy, not crying---holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering---can be bad for physical health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can 1ead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illness. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel li ke crying, don't fight it. It's a natural, healthy and emotional response.12. Why didn't the author cry when her grandmother died?A. Because her father did not want her to feel too sad.B. Because she did not love her grandmother.C. Because she was too shy to cry at that time.D. The author doesn't give the explanation.13.It can be inferred from the text that .A. there are two ways to keep healthyB. emotional health has a close relationship to physical healthC. crying and laughing play the same rolesD. crying does more good to health than laughing14. What might be the most suitable title for the text?A. Why We CryB. How to Keep HealthyC. Power of TearsD. New Scientific Discovery15. What is the author's attitude to "crying"?A. Positive.B. Negative.C. Touched.D. Upset.第二部分：完形填空(共20小题；每小题l.5分, 满分30分)阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从1—20各题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

2017-2018学年第一学期高二年级周测卷英语试卷（第二次）（考试时间: 40分钟，满分100分）I.阅读理解(共60分，一个3.5分)AEP Portable HeaterWe all know that the cost of heating our homes will continue to be a significant burden on the family budget. Now millions of people are saving on their heating bills with the EP portable heater. With over one million satisfied customers around the world, the new EP heats better and faster, saves more on heating bills, and runs almost silent.The EP has no exposed heating parts that can cause a fire. The outside of the EP only gets warm to the touch so that it will not burn children or pets.The EP will not reduce oxygen in the room. With other heaters, you’ll notice that you get sleepy when the heat comes on because they are burning up oxygen.The advanced EP also heats the room evenly, wall to wall and floor to ceiling. It comfortably covers an area up to 350 square feet. Other heaters heat rooms unevenly with most of the heat concentrated to the center of the room. And they only heat an area a few feet around the heater.

The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced the Mediterranean as the inland sea of Western civilization. Unlike real inland seas, which seem strangely still, the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness. It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been much written about by ancient poets.“Storm at Sea”, a short poem written around 700, is generally regarded as one of mankind’s earliest artistic representations of the Atlantic.When the wind is from the westAll the waves that cannot restTo the east must thunder onWhere the bright tree of the sunIs rooted in the ocean’s breast.As the poem suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull. It is an ocean that moves,impressively and endlessly. It makes all kinds of noise—it is forever thundering, boiling, crashing, and whistling.It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath—perhaps not so noticeably out in m id-ocean, but where it meets land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach. It mimics(模仿)nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature. It is filled with symbiotic existences, too; unimaginable quantities of creatures, little and large alike, mix within its depths in a kind of oceanic harmony, giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat, a kind of sub-ocean vitality. And it has a psychology. It has personalities: sometimes peaceful and pleasant, on rare occasions rough and wild; always it is strong and striking.5.Unlike real inland seas, the Atlantic Ocean is .A. always energeticB. lacking in livelinessC. shaped like a squareD. favored by ancient poets6.What is the purpose of using the poem“Storm at Sea”in the passage?A. To describe the movement of the waves.B. To show the strength of the storm.C. To represent the power of the ocean.D. To prove the vastness of the sea.7.What does the under lined word“symbiotic”mean?A. Living together.B. Growing fast.C. Moving harmoniously.D. Breathing peacefully.8.In the last paragraph, the Atlantic is compared to .A. a beautiful and poetic placeB. a flesh and blood personC. a wonderful worldD. a lovely animalCGiven that many people’s moods are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate, it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drugstore of Chinese medicine. Looking like a setting from the film Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, Singapore’s Chocolat e Research Facility(CRF)has over 100 varieties of chocolates. Its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents’corner。

2017—2018学年第一学期高二年级周测卷英语试卷(第一次)（考试时间： 40分钟,满分100分 )ADo you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it’s becaus e we have mirror neurons（神经元）in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate（模仿)it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk， walk， dance or play sports。
But the idea goes further： mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains， but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel。

Hobbyists raise pets, build model ships, weave baskets, watch birds, hunt animals, climb mountains, raise flowers, fish, ski, skate and swim. Hobbyists also paint pictures, attend concerts and plays, and perform on musical instruments. They collect everything from books to butterflies and from shells to stamps.People take up hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment, friendship, knowledge, and relaxation. Sometimes they even give financial profits- Hobbies help people relax after periods of hard work, and provide a balance between work and play. Hobbies also offer interesting activities for persons who have retired. Anyone, rich or poor, old or young, sick or well, can follow a satisfying hobby, regardless of his age, position, or income.Hobbies can help a person's mental and physical health. Doctors have found that hobbies are valuable in helping patients recover from physical or mental illness. Hobbies give bedridden or wheel-chair patients something to do, and provide interests that keep them from thinking about themselves. Many hospitals treat patients by having them take up interesting hobbies or pastimes（娱乐）•In early times, most people were too busy making a living to have many hobbies. But some persons who had spare time did enjoy hobbies. The ancient Egyptians played games with balls made of wood, pottery（陶器）.People today have more time than ever before for hobbies. Machines have reduced the amount of time they must spend on their jobs. Hobbies provide variety for workers who do the same unchanging tasks all day long. More people are retiring than ever before, and at an earlier age.

Be aware of those who use the truth to deceive(欺骗). When someone tells you something that is 21 , but leaves out important information that should be 22 , he can create a false impression.For example, someone might say, “I just 23 a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and 24 it in for one hundred dollars!”This guy is a winner, 25 ? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred 26 , and only one was a winner. He’s really a big 27 !He didn’t say anything that was 28 , but he deliberately left out some important 29 . That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically 30 , but they are just as not 31 .Untrustworthy candidates in 32 campaigns often use this tactic(手段). Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, the state lost one million jobs and 33 three million jobs. Then she 34 another term. One of her opponents runs an ad 35 , “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true. 36 , an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of 37 million jobs. ”Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s 38 the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the 39 . An ad might boast, “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples. ” It 40 to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.This kind of deception happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.21.A. false B. true C. interesting D. boring22.A. included B. contained C. ignored D. referred23.A. lostB. foundC. donatedD. won 24.A. changedB. tookC. turnedD. made 25.A. right B. well C. reallyD. thought 26.A. books B. papers C. ticketsD. balls 27.

Before you dismiss it as a habit suited only for young kids, consider that there are serious advantages in being well-rested. And now, even more research suggests that putting phones away before going to sleep is important to teens’ well -being.A new study from Seton Hall University School of Health and Medicine Science found that 62 percent of kids used their smart phon es before bed, and it’s causing less sleep and poor performance in school.Those teens who text(发短信) before bedtime tend to go to sleep later, and get up later in the morning. Such behavior can be associated with mental health issueslike depression or anxiety. Besides, once teens do receive a text, experts found, they tend to respond right away. Then the text conversation continues — resulting in an even later bedtime.The study’s co-author Dr. Peter Polos says this leads to excessive stimulation(过度刺激) at night. Light from electronic devices can block the secretion(分泌) of melatonin — a hormone(荷尔蒙) that promotes sleep, which makes sleep difficult in the face of overuse of smart phones at night. It’s true! More screen time means less sleep time; other studies have suggested the same idea.As for a final piece of advice, Dr. Sushanth Bhat says, since getting the proper amount of sleep is very important for brain development and learning in the teenage years, our study should encourage parents and guardians (监护人) to limit adolescent smart phone usage at night. Keep in mind that teens aren’t the only ones addicted to their phones! Adults can also benefit from setting a tech curfew(宵禁) for themselves. After all, kids learn by example!41．What is the text mainly about?A. How to promote sleep.B. How kids learn from their parents.C. The advantages of going to bed early.D. The disadvantages of phone usage before bed.42．Who are likely to go to sleep later according to the text?A. Kids having text conversations before bed.B. Kids putting their phones away at night.C. Kids studying their lessons hard at school.D. Kids exercising with friends after school.43．Melatonin can ________.A. make sleep difficultB. lead to later bedtimesC. help people fall asleepD. wake people from a sleep44．The author advises parents to ________.A. learn from their kidsB. get rid of smart phonesC. set a good example to their kidsD. try to benefit from hi-tech development BA man walked into a small Irish pub and ordered three beers. Bartender was surprised, but he served that man three beers. One hour later the man ordered three beers again. The very next day that man ordered three beers again and drank quietly at a table. This repeated several times and shortly after the people of the town were whispering about the man, who was ordering three beers at once.A couple of weeks later, the bartender decided to clear this out and inquired: “I do not want to pry, but could you explain, why do you order three beers all the time?” The man replied: “It seems strange, isn’t it? You see, my two brothers live abroad at the moment, one –in France and another –in Italy. We have made an agreement, that every time we go to pub each of us will order extra two beers and it will help keeping up t he family bond ”.Soon all the town have heard about the man’s answer and liked it a lot. The man became a local celebrity. Residents of the town were telling this story to newcomers or tourists and even invited them to that pub to look at Three Beer Man.However, one day the man came to pub and ordered only two beers, not three as usual. The bartender served him with bad feeling. All that evening the man ordered and drank only two beers. The very next day all the town was talking about this news, some people pray for the soul of one of the brothers, others quietly grieve.When the man came to pub the next time and ordered two beers again, the bartender asked him: “I would like to offer condolences to you, due to the death of your dear brother”. The man considered this for a moment and then replied: “Oh, you are probably surprised that I order only two beers now? Well, my two brothers are alive and well. It‘s just because of my decision. I promised myself to give up drinking.”45．The man ordered three beers all the time because _______.A. people were fond of drinking beers in this pub.B. he missed his two brothers living abroad very much.C. this would help him become a local celebrity.D. it was an agreement with his brothers to keep up the family bond.46．We can infer from the passage that______.A. news traveled fast in the town.B. the man became famous in the town because he was a heavy drinkerC. the man’s brothers liked drinking beer very muchD. the man was strong-minded to give up drinking47．The bartender served the man with bad feeling because ________.A. he thought the man should order three beersB. he thought one of the man’s brothers had passed awayC. he would earn less moneyD. the man decided to drink two beers48．The underlined word “condolences” in the last paragraph can be replaced by______.A. gratitudeB. sympathyC. appreciationD.

The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced the Mediterranean as the inland sea of Western civilization. Unlike real inland seas, which seem strangely still, the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness. It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been much written about by ancient poets.“Storm at Sea”, a short poem written around 700, is generally regarded as one of ma nkind’s earliest artistic representations of the Atlantic.When the wind is from the westAll the waves that cannot restTo the east must thunder onWhere the bright tree of the sunIs rooted in the ocean’s breast.As the poem suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull. It is an ocean that moves,impressively and endlessly. It makes all kinds of noise—it is forever thundering, boiling, crashing, and whistling.It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath—perhaps not so noticeably out in m id-ocean, but where it meets land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach. It mimics(模仿)nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature. It is filled with symbiotic existences, too; unimaginable quantities of creatures, little and large alike, mix within its depths in a kind of oceanic harmony, giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat, a kind of sub-ocean vitality. And it has a psychology. It has personalities: sometimes peaceful and pleasant, on rare occasions rough and wild; always it is strong and striking.5.Unlike real inland seas, the Atlantic Ocean is .A. always energeticB. lacking in livelinessC. shaped like a squareD. favored by ancient poets6.What is the purpose of using the poem“Storm at Sea”in the passage?A.

Looking like a setting from the film Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, Singapore’s Chocolate Research Facility(CRF)has over 100 varieties of chocolates. Its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents’cornerstore with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.If the CRF seems to be a smart idea, that’s because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi’s and Sony. That idea surely res ults in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.The CRF’s produce is“green”,made within the c ountry and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series—with Sichuan pepper, red bean, cheese and other flavors—also does well and is fun to taste. And for chocolate snobs,who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others, the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo, Cuba, Venezuela, and Ghana, among others.9. What is good about chocolate?A. It serves as a suitab le gift.B. It works as an effective medicine.C. It helps improve the state of mind.D. It strengthens business relations.10.
