第一节:阅读理解(每题2.5分,共10分)
In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression(侵略)in other animals.This sometimes happens with humans also.But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people.I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat.And I have discovered that it makes them happy.
Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way.But those are few and far between.More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we’re brave when we’re scared.
Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual.People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me.At that moment,I decided to do something I had never done in twentyfour years of driving.I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.

Ms Pethrick was standing on a river bank Wednesday afternoon when the saltwater crocodile lunged (扑), locking its jaws on both her legs as it tried to drag her underwater. Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped onto the back, poked (戳) the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free.Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one of her fingers.“This could have been a fatal and tragic situation,” said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report.He said Ms P ethrick was saved by her husband’s “quick and diligent actions”. Dr Notaras also said she would remain in hospital for three to four days and have an operation to clean the wounds, which are easy to get infected because of bacteria on the teeth of the crocodile.36. This passage is most likely to be found in _____.A. a travel guideB. a newspaperC. a textbookD. a novel37. The crocodile attacked Ms Pethrick when she was ______.A. swimming in the riverB. standing on the river bankC. watching the crocodileD. fishing in the water38. Which of the following statements is TRUE about Ms Pethrick?A. Her eyes were badly poked.B. She had eight wounds altogether.C. One of her fingers also got hurt.D. One of th e crocodile’s teeth was found in her leg.39. According to the passage, Norm Pethrick can be described as following EXCEPT ______.A. braveB. diligentC. quickD. humorous40. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. The husband should save the wifeB. A man saves wife’s life from crocodile’s jawsC. A crocodile is not so dangerous as people imagineD. Human beings can beat crocodiles sometimesBAmerica is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while —then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off toact as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!41. The writer of this passage must be ______.A. an AmericanB. a ChineseC. a professorD. a student42. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.43. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.A. warmly welcomed at the airportB. offered a ride to his homeC. treated hospitably at his homeD. treated to dinner in a restaurant44. The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.A. strict with timeB. serious with timeC. careful with timeD. willing to spend time45. A suita ble title for this passage would probably be “______”.A. Friendships between ChineseB. Friendships between AmericansC. Americans’ hospitalityD. Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendshipsCEnglish is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, a re meat.We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese?How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guyare opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one dayand cold as hell the next?English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible; but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.46. According to the passage ______.A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different thingsB. there should be egg in an eggplantC. pineapples are the apples on the pine treeD. boxing rings should be round47 Which of the following is the correct plural?A. Beeth.B. Geese.C. Meese.D. Tooth.48. Which of the following includes two items which have the similar meaning?A. A wise man and a wise guy.B. Overlook and oversee.C. Quite a lot and quite a few.D. Hot as hell and cold as hell.49. The underlined wo rds “wind up” in the last paragraph probably mean “______”.A. blowB. roll upC. get hurtD. finish50. Through the many paradoxes in the English language, the writer wants to show that human beings are ______.A. cleverB. crazyC. lazyD. dullDJust 25 years ago,the top three career hopes for young people in Britain were teacher,banker and doctor. Now,they want to be sports star,pop star and actor,according to a survey by the Guardian newspaper.Rachel,a character in the popular TV show Glee,may be said to speak for British teenagers. “Nowadays being nobody is worse than being poor.” he said.Emma Brockes, a reporter with the Guardian,believes it is “the bad influence of celebrity(名人) culture”that is to blame. “When children wanted to be doctor,it wasn't because they were really more interested in the functions of human organs than they are now;you go where the respect is.” she wrote.It could explain why there has been such an increase in levels of anxiety and depression. Dr Carlo Strenger of Tel Aviv University,studied the sense of self for his new book The Fear of Insigni ficance:Searching for Meaning in the 21st Century. He told the Daily Mail that young people now are affected by the close connection to the global entertainment network,which has turned ranking and rating people according to wealth and celebrity into an obsession(痴迷).”“As humans,we naturally measure ourselves to those around us,but now we live in a global village. We are comparing ourselves with the most ‘important' people in the world and finding ourselves wanting,”he said. Today,even high achievers constantly fear that they are insignificant when they compare themselves to success stories in the media.The way out?Simply stop measuring your achievement through a fantasy of wealth and celebrity. Dr Strenger said that it is a process called “active selfacceptance through a constant search for selfknowledge through life”.“The fear of insignificance can only be overcome through strong individual and cultural identity over and above measurable achievement,”he said.51.Nowadays,young people in Britain want to ________.A.choose jobs based on interestsB.become famousC.be teacher,banker and doctorD.earn more money52.According to Emma Brockes,what causes the increasing level of anxiety?A.Choices of future careers.B.Access to the global network.C.Bad influences of celebrities.D.Endless comparison with others.53.Which of the following is TRUE of Dr Carlo Strenger?A.He is a newspaper reporter.B.He is the spokesman of teenagers.C.He tells success stories on TV.D.He is against ranking people with wealth.54.Dr Carlo Strenger suggests that young people should________.A.seek active selfacceptanceB.stick to their own dreamsC.make great achievementsD.search for the secret of wealth55.The text is mainly written to ________.A.talk about job choicesB.analyse a social phenomenonC.encourage celebrity cultureD.introduce three famous people第四题:阅读表达(共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)Most people think that making a film is exciting. In fact, sometimes it is and sometimes it isn’t. Earlier this year, I worked in a new film. It was about a bomb threat on a big British ship. Two hundred people were needed to act as the passengers in the film. I was one of them.Before we left, we were wanted to bring some warm clothes. These were necessary because the ship was going to spend the whole 16 days sailing in bad weather.Then the day came and we sailed out of Dover. The boat had on board the film crew, the director, the actors and actresses including Brinksley Meers, who acted the leading role, and us-200 amateur extras.People came for different purposes. Some wanted to meet Brinksley Meers in person. Others were curious to see how a film was made. A housewife with her three children came for free holiday and a bit of adventure.During the voyage, a lot of people were very seasick. And although the work was very interesting, it was also very hard. We often worked all day on one scene, performing it again and again under the hot lights. In the evenings, there were drinks in the bar, but most people were so tired that they went to bed early. The next day often began at 6:30 in the morning, sometimes with breakfast being filmed.When the ship finally returned to port, most people had enjoyed the trip, but were also so tired that they at least needed a week’s holiday. Answer the following questions: 56. Which role did the author act in the film?_______________________________________________________________________________. 57. Why the film crew were asked to bring some warm clothes?_______________________________________________________________________________.58. Who acted the leading role?_______________________________________________________________________________. 59. Why the author said “they at least needed a week’s holiday”?_______________________________________________________________________________. 60.

AThe elephant was lying heavily on its side, fast asleep.A few dogs started barking at it.The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety.That didn't stop the elephant.It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people.The villagers were scared and angry.Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.Parbati Barua's father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer.He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk.He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant roundup——how to catch wild elephants.Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle.After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city.But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life.“Life in the city is too dull.Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase.〞 she says.But Parbati doesn't catch elephants just for fun.“My work,〞she says, “is to rescue man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man.〞 And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years.Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land.It is now fighting back.Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animalsback to the jungle before they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion.A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant.“Eventually they g row to love their tamers and never forget them.They are also more loyal than humans.〞 she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal.An elephant princess indeed!28.For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to ________.A.get long lasting excitementB.keep both man and elephants safeC.send them back to the jungleD.make the angry elephants tame29.Before Parbati studied in a boarding school,________.A.she spent her time hunting with her fatherB.she learned how to sing love songsC.she had already been called an elephant princessD.she was taught how to hunt tigers30.Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge because ________.

But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people.I see it every day when people hold doors for me,pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat。
And I have discovered that it makes them happy。
From my wheelchair experience,I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily。
They don’t get to see this soft side of others.Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness,which includes a lot of pretending.But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them。
Last month,when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual。

Some of the world's leading cities are facing disasters like floods and heat waves.LondonLondon's flood defences are getting older. Since 1982, the Thames Barrier(水闸)has protected the city from the threat of flooding,but it was only designed to last until 2030 and close once every two or three years. About 21 years later the barrier now closes five or six times a year and according to Environment Agency predictions, by 2050 the barrier will be closed on almost every tide if the problem is not addressed.There are 26 underground stations, 400 schools, 16 hospitals,an airport and 80 billion worth of property in London's flood risk area, so large scale flooding would be disastrous.ParisShanghaiShanghai is the fastest growing city on Earth. It has a population of 18 million and is only 4 meters above sea level. Sea levels are predicted to rise by 20 cm within the next century.An estimated 250,000 people move to Shanghai every year in search of work, placing extra demands on energy consumption. China relies heavily on coalfired power stations, but these emissions increase temperatures and, in turn, warmer seas increase the risk of typhoons.36Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Solutions to Natural DisastersB. Big Disasters in the FutureC. The Increase of Natural DisastersD. Big Cities Facing Big Disasters37What problem should be settled now in London?A. How to improve the function of the old flood defencesB. Where to build its flood defences.C. How to use the Thames Barrier to protect the city.D. How to protect the city's property.38Which of the following measures can't solve the heat wave disaster in Paris?A. Putting up new types of buildings with a covering of bamboo.B. Forbidding the city to build “Flower Tower”.C. Having airconditioners installed in elderly care homes.D. Encouraging architects to design new types of buildings.39The major threats to Shanghai are ________.A. increasing population and coalfired power stationsB. extremely high temperature and rising sea levelsC. rising sea levels and typhoonsD. extra demands on energy consumption and typhoons40The purpose of the passage is ________.A. to tell us how to protect the big citiesB. to give advice on how to defend natural disastersC. to explain what causes flood and heat wavesD. to warn us of the increasing natural disasters in big citiesBAfter lots of hype, the new iPhone 3GS has arrived, boasting an improved camera, better battery life, and speedier performance. But is it a must?The iPhone 3GS is available in two versions: 16GB and 32GB. The 16GB version costs $199, while the 32GB version costs $299. From the outside, the iPhone 3GS looks exactly like the iPhone 3G. Like the iPhone 3G, the new model comes in black and white versions, and sports a 3.5-inch touch screen. Most of the changes to the iPhone 3GS have been made on the inside. Apple says that battery life is better, but the biggest boost is in the iPhone's speed: The iPhone 3GS runs twice as fast as the iPhone 3G. Instead of a lot of software installed on it, the iPhone 3GS comes with the most recent version of the iPhone Software -- version 3.0 –installed, but it does come with easy access to Apple's App Store. The speedier performance of the iPhone 3GS extends to surfing the Web, too. You can see entire Web pages, and can zoom(急速移动) in and out with ease.41. The difference between 3G and 3GS lies mainly in ________.A. their colorsB. their batteries and speedsC. their screensD. their outside shapes42. What can we infer from the second paragraph about 3G?A. It has two versions: either black or white.B. It offers an easy access to the web pages.C. In spite of slow speed, it functions the same as 3GS.D. It has the latest iPhone software installed.43. What does MMS probably refer to in the passage?A. Major Messaging Software.B. Membership Management System.C. Multi-media Messaging Service.D. Multi-Media Software Store.44. According to the text, what is the notable advantage 3GS has in messaging?A. Pictures and videos can be sent through SMS .B. Pictures and videos can be sent more quicklyC. It’s more convenient to send and receive messages.D. It’s more convenient to compose messages via keys.45. What is the best title of the text?A. 3GS is a must nowadays.B. 3GS is the best choice nowadays.C. Is 3GS a must nowadays?D. Is 3GS worth your money?CThe year is 2094. It has been announced that a comet (彗星) is heading towards the Earth. Most of it will miss our planet, but two pieces will probably hit the southern half of the Earth.On 17 July, a piece four kilometers wide enters the Earth’s atmosphere with a massive explosion. About half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and a huge hole is made in the sea bed. Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole. The wall of water, a kilometer high, rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned. Before the waves reach South America, the second piece of the comet lands in Argentina. Earthquakes and volcanoes are set off in the Andes Mountains. The shock waves move north into California and all around the Pacific Ocean. The cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes. Millions of people in the southern half of the earth are already dead, but the north won’t escape for long. Because of the explosions, the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, and temperatures around the world fall to almost zero. Crops are ruined. The sun won’t be seen again for many years. Wars break out as countries fight for food. A year later, no more than 10 million remain alive.Could it really happen? In fact, it has already happened more than once in the history of the Earth. The dinosaurs were on the Earth for over 160 million years. Then 65 million years ago they suddenly disappeared. Many scientists believe that the Earth was hit by a piece of object in space. The dinosaurs couldn’t live through the cold climate that followed and they died out. Will we meet the same end?46. When the first piece hits the South Atlantic, it causes _____________.A. an earthquakeB. damages to citiesC. an Earth explosionD. huge waves47. Why can’t the northern half of the earth escape for long?A. Because the land is covered with waterB. Because the light and heat from the sun can not reach the earth.C. Because people there can not live at the temperature of zero.D. Because wars break out among countries.48. By giving the example of dinosaurs, the author tries to prove_____________.A. animals could not live in the cold climateB. what happened 65 million years ago was an invented storyC. the human beings will die out in 2094D. the Earth could be hit by other objects in space49. We may guess that the writer is ______________.A. worriedB. practicalC. a scientistD. full of imagination50. What is mainly described in the passage?A. A historic discovery.B. An event of imagination.C. A research on space.D. A scientific adventure.DExercise may hold the key to youth, according to a study published recently which showed people who keep fit are up to nine years biologically younger than those who do not.The findings are the first to show in humans how keeping fit affects the ageing process.The study of 2,401 twins found that a sedentary (惯于久坐的) lifestyle raises the risk of a range of problems from heart disease to cancer and appears to play a key role in the ageing process.It all appears to boil down to the length of structures called telomeres-which protect the DNA on the chromosomes(染色体), the researchers from King's College London wrote in the Archives of Internal Medicine.Many studies have shown telomeres get shorter over time, suggesting the cells are ageing or dying. The study, which extracted a DNA sample from their volunteers, found people who exercised more each week had longer telomeres.Exercise lowers the risk of a range of problems such as heart disease, diabetes(糖尿病)and cancer, the researchers said.“It is not just walking around the block. It is really working up a sweat,” said Tim Spector, a genetic epidemiologist(流行病学家) who led the study, in a telephone interview.The study found people who exercised vigorously 3 hours each week had longer telomeres and they were 9 years biologically younger than people who did under 15 minutes.Spector’s team, who also adjusted for body weight, smoking, economic status and physical activity at work, also said moderate exercise for 1-1/2 hours each week provided a four-year advantage.The reason why exercise has this effect is not clear but we believe physical activity somehow defends against the natural process.51. According to the study, people sitting long _________. .A. are tending to be more healthyB. are more likely to live longerC. are inclined to be taken illD. are getting old more slowly52. The underlined phrase “boil down to” most probably means .A. lie inB. lead toC.aim at D. show up53. Which of the following statements are NOT true?A. Telomeres get shorter as time goes on.B. Slight walking prevents people getting ill.C. Exercise energetically reduces the chance of diseases.D. Body weight, smoking and economic status affect peo ple’shealth.54. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. people’s health is decided by their body weight and economicstatusB. scientists have known why exercise affects the ageing processC. the more violently one exercises, the healthier one getsD. the longer telomeres one has, the more slowly one gets old55. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A. Lifestyle affects people’s healthB. Physical activity prevents diseasesC. Exercise keeps you youngerD. Sitting long suffers from cancer四阅读表达(共5小题,满分10分)In swimming, there are certain rules every swimmer should follow:(1) Never swim alone!

江西省横峰中学2017-2018学年高二第8周周练英语试题
横峰中学2017-2018学年度上学期周练(第8周)高二年级英语试卷第二部分阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2.5分,共20分)AWhen my mother was alive, she used to tell me again and again about the value of just being nice. “Never underestimate(低估)the power of a smile,” she would say.I fear she would be very disappointed looking at the world today. A lot of people don’t smile and when it comes to service today, they’re just not nice. Now don’t give me wrong, not all service workers but a good many.I was on the phone the other day with a computer help desk. First a man, then latera woman, who couldn’t have been ruder. And this to a customer, who didn’t know his way around a PC. But no matter, I could tell they thought I was a bother, The woman, in fact, seemed to be chewing gum as she unemotionally clicked off a series of commands for me to perform.The next day I heard from a friend of mine who got a performance review without his boss once looking up at him. Not once.You see it everywhere. Gone are the days when people cared about you. It’s a s ign of the time, I suspect. But that makes me sad — for them and for us all. People who aren’t happy, who don’t smile, who don’t kid, who don’t joke or make light of even bad situations, make for an even worse situation.And it spreads like a cancer. Someo ne’s rude to you, you’re rude to them and to the next fellow you meet, and on and on. Smiles are contagious(易感染的)but so annoyances. The boss who can’t be bothered with his workers. The celebrity who can’t be bothered with her annoying fans.You know, my mom used to judge presidential candidates by how they smiled. I would say, “But mom, you don’t know if that smile is real.”“Oh, yes I do,” she would tell me. “I can feel it.”It’s in their eyes, she would say. And it’s in their smile. The rest just kind offalls into place.21.Why did the writer mention his phone call?A. To prove his mother is wrong.B. To show many people aren’t nice.C. To tell us he knows little about computer.D. To share his funny experience with us.22.What is the author’s attitude to wards the boss of his friend?A. Opposed.B. Doubtful.C. Respectful.D. Supportive.23.When someone is rude to you, you’re advised to ________.A. be rude to the next personB. be nice to the people you meetC. become one just like him or herD. make for a worse situation24.What’s the best title of the passage?A. The power of a smileB. Don’t judge a person by his lookC. The effect of rudenessD. Feel a person in his eyesBA new research of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy love (早恋) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression . The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”. According to the study, even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this“loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They won’t tell that to their parents.Dr Marian Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self. She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.Parents should watch for signs of depression—eating or mood changes —and if they see signs from their daughters or sons, they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.25.Which of the following is more likely to have depression?A. Young people who have a strong sense of selfishness.B. Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior.C. Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.D. Careless parents whose children are deep in love.26.What can be inferred from the passage?A. Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.B. The older a woman is,the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.C. Early love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents.D. Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.27.What’s the author’s attitude towards puppy love?A. Confused.B. Disinterested.C. Scared.D. Disapproving.28.What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Parents should forbid their children’s love.B. Puppy love may bring young people depression.C. Romance is a two edged sword for adults.D. Romance is good for young people.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)Good student-teacher relationships result from the choices that are made even beforeschool, and how those choices are carried out on a daily basis. Here are a few tips to make this process easier for both parties._36.__For the teacher, this means that they need to look at each student from the perspective(角度) of what that student could learn, rather than what that student learned last week or last year. For the student, this means that they need to enter the classroom every day with the willingness to trust the teacher to help them understand. _37.__ Every school day there are new opportunities to learn new information or to understand subjects that might have been difficult in the past. __38.__This is not to say that you have to “buy” the affections(关爱) of the student or the teacher,but you can give the gift of a smile,the gift of attention in class,or the gift of eye contact. Giving this type of gift always helps to build strong relationships.Demand the best.__39.__ We can trust friends to keep us responsible and when developing good student -teacher relationships,the same principle of trust applies. Setting high expectations always pushes us to be our best,and when both the student and the teacher are pushing the other for more depth, more wisdom, more insight, etc,then both the student and the teacher will give more.To develop a good student-teacher relationship,both the student and the teacher must be willing to decide to do these things daily. Each day,they must be willing to try again and work on the relationship. _40.__A.Buy gifts for teachers.B.Give gifts to one another.C.Focus on the positive.D.We can always learn a lot from our teachers.E.Future learning is never limited by past experiences.F. Good relationships are always founded on honesty and high expectations.

Whoever第三节阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)AHow to eat healthfully can be especially complex for working women who often have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves (or for anyone else). Registered dietitian(营养专家) Barhara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.“Go for nutrient dense foods,” she suggests, “foods that contain a multiple of nutrients. For example, select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food, rather than coffee cake. Or drink orange juice rather than orange drink, which contains only a small percentage of real juice-the rest is largely colored sugar water. You just can’t compare the value of these foods, the nutrient dense ones are so superior,” she emphasizes.Morrissey believes that variety is not only the spice of life —it’s the foundation of a healthful diet. Diets which are based on one or two foods are not only virtually impossible to keep up the strength, they can be very harmful, she says, because nutrients aren’t supplied in sufficient amounts or balance.According to Morrissey, trying to find a diet that can cure your illnesses, or make you superwoman is a fruitless search. As women, many of us are too concerned with staying thin, she says, and we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.“We ne ed carbohydrates, protein and fat — they are like the wood in the fireplace. The vitamins and minerals are like the match, the spark, for the fuel,” she explains. “We need them all, but in a very different proportions. And if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless.”56. From the paragraph we know that working women .A.think cooking is especially complicatedB.do not share the same views with re gistered dietitiansC. are busy and not interested in cookingD. are likely to eat healthfully57. Orange juice is different from orange drink in that .A. it contains only a small percentage of real juiceB. it is natural, nutritious and prepared from real orangesC. it is largely orange-colored sugar waterD. it produces nothing but calories58. In Paragraph 4, “a fruitless search” means .A.an effort with no resultsB. a search for a diet without fruitsC. a research on fruitless dietD. a diet serving as medicine59. Many women take it for granted, according to passage that .A. a balanced diet can result in being fatB. staying thin and healthy are both possibleC. lack of variety in diets leads to staying thinD. vitamins are some kind of substitutions (替代品) for food60. By “if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless”, the author means .A. carbohydrates, protein and fat are enough to support a human lifeB. vitamins and minerals are virtually of no valueC. carbohydrates, protein and fat are as important as vitamins and mineralsD. without carbohydrates, protein and fat, vitamins and minerals are of no useBA “blogger” is a person who writes on an Internet computer Web site called a “blog”. The word“blog” is a short way of saying Web log, or personal Web site. Anyone can start a blog, and they can write about anything they like.There are millions of blogs on the Internet today. They provide news, information and ideas in many people who read them. They contain links to other Web sites. And they provide a place for people to write about their ideas and react to the ideas of others.A research company called Perscus has studied more than 300 Web logs. It says that blogs are most popular with teenage girls. They use the m to let their friends know what is happening in their lives. The study also says that more than 100,000 bloggers stopped taking part in the activity after a year.However, some people develop serious blogs to present political and other ideas. For example, the Republican and Democratic parties in the southern state of Kentucky recently started their own blogs . And American companies are beginning to use blogs to advertise their products.At the same time, some long-standing blogs have ended last week, blogging leader Dave Winer closed his fre e blog service “weblogs. c om”. He says the site became too costly to continue. He started the blog four years ago. And thousands of people had written on it. They are now upset because they did not know that the site was closing.One blog that is still goi ng strong is called Rebecca’s Pocket. Rebecca Blood created the Web-site in 1999. She wrote about the history of blogs on the site. That article led to a book called “The Weblog Handbook”. It has been translated into four languages so far.Ms. Blood says R ebecea’s Pocket gets about 30,000 visitors a month. She writes about anything and everything--politics, culture and movies. She recently provided medical advice. And she wrote about how to prevent people from stealing money from on -line bank accounts.61. The author wrote this passage mainly to _________.A. introduce an Internet computer Web site called “blog”B. introduce a short way of saying WeblogC. tell readers about blogsD. tell readers how to write blogs62. From the passage we can learn that blogs cover almost everything EXCEPT ______.A. different ideasB. medical adviceC. advertisementsD. account passwords63. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. Politicians don' t use blogs at all.B. A lot of bloggers no longer write or read blogs.C. Among school children, fewer boys like to use blogs.D. People have 5 language versions of “The Weblog Handbook” to read.64. Dave Winer closed his “weblogs. Com” because __________.A. more than 100,000 bloggers stopped taking part in the activityB. American companies used blogs to advertise their productsC. people stole money from on -line bank accountsD. He couldn’t afford the increasing money nee ded to run the blogs65. The reason why Rebecca’s Pocket is still going strong is that ______.A. it was created by a womanB. it is about the history of blogsC. it provides useful information and adviceD. it has editions in at least four different languagesCRuben lived in a small village. There was no school there and he had to study in a school in the town. It was nearly five kilometres away from his village. His father couldn't buy a bike for him and he had to go to school on foot. He got up early in the morning. Usually he had to run there in order not to miss the first class. He kept running every day and it was helpful to him. He’s strong and tall now and he ran faster than any other man in his village. He took part in several sports meetings and won some medals. The young man is proud of and always wants to have a race with others.One day his mother was ill and his father told him to buy some medicine for headache in the town. The young man got there soon. There were many people in the chemist's shop while he was waiting there. And when his turn came, he couldn’t find his money. An old woman hinted(暗示)a young man had stolen it. He saw the thiefhad already left the shop. He ran towards him quickly. The thief found it and began to run. He was happy and tried to catch up with him.“Let’s have a race and see who will run faster,” Ruben called out behind.Soon after that he caught up with the thief. But he didn't stop and went on running. At a crossing one of his friends asked, “What are you running for, Ruben?”“I’m running after a thief. ”“Where’s the thief, then?”“He wants to show that he’ll run faster than me, but he’s fallen behind!”66. Ruben had to run to school because ______________.A. he had no bikeB. he hoped to win some medalsC. his village was a little far from the schoolD.he was afraid to be late for class67.______________ , so he won some medals.A.

Ruben was happy because ______________.A. he could ea sily catch the thiefB.he had a chance(机会)to have a raceC. he knew who had stolen his moneyD. he would win another medal that dayDPeople with disabilities make up a large part of the population. It is estimated that over 35million Americans have physical, mental, or other disabilities. About half of these disabilities are “developmental”, ie, they occur before the individual’s twenty-second birthday, often from genetic conditions, and are bad enough to affect three or more areas of development, such as mobility, communication, employment, etc. Most other disabilities are considered “adventitious”, i.e., accidental or caused by outside forces.Before the 20th century, only a small percentage of people with disabilities survived for long. Medical treatment for these disabilities was unavailable. Advancements in medicine and social services have created a climate in which people with disabilities can expect to have such basic needs as food, shelter, and medical treatment. Unfortunately, these basics are often not available. Civil liberties such as the right to marry, get an education, and gain employment have historically been refused on the basis of disability.In recent years, the disability rights movement has been organized. Some laws have been passed for protecting the disabled.Still today, people with disabilities must fight to live their lives independently. It is estimated that more than half of qualified Americans with disabilities are unemployed, and a majority of those who do work are underemployed.Big difficulties, especially in transportation and public indifference, prevent disabled people from taking part in society. For example, while no longer stopped by law from marrying, a person with no access to transportation is effectively excluded (排斥) from community and social activities which might lead to the development of long-term relationships.It will only be when public attitudes advance as far as laws have that disabled people will be fully able to take their rightful place in society.71. A “developmental” disability _______________. .A. is caused by outside forcesB. is getting worse and worseC. develops very slowly over timeD. occurs in youth and affects development72. Most disabled people used to die early because .A. disabilities destroyed major bodily functionsB. they were not very well looked afterC. medical techniques were not availableD. they were not poor to get proper treatment73. What can we learn from the text?A. Few laws have been passed to protect the disabled people.B. Few disabled people may remain single for their whole life.C. The public will look down upon the disabled people forever.D. About half of qualified Americans with disabilities are out of work.74. In the author’s opinion, to enable the disabled people to take their rightful place in society, _____________________. .A. more laws should be passedB.public attitudes should be changedC. government should provide more aidsD. more public facilities should be set up75. The best title for this text might be .A. Disadvantages and the Present Condition of the DisabledB. Medical Treatment for DisabilitiesC. The Differences of the DisabledD. The Causes for Disabilities第四节阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)(1) Eating meat is not an efficient way to get calories, because livestock such as cows and sheep must eat about 10 times more vegetable matter, in terms of calorie count, than they convert into meat. On the way to a steak, a huge number of food calories are wasted. And yet, humans need protein. Fortunately, insects are full of it.(2) There are at least 1,700 edible(可吃的) insect species around the world. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) , along with a famous university in the Netherlands, has begun a research project to determine the potential of these insects to supplement (增补) the food supply in Europe and other places. At a conferencein late January in Rome, scientists began to work on a plan to make use of insects as alternative sources of protein.(3) Eating insects is ______ in many parts of the world. But the practice has come to be regarded with disgust and cruelty in Western cultures simply because countries with cold climate have fewer edible insect species, and these countries have therefore not regarded bug-eating as part of their cultures.(4)This has led to insects’ not being under use worldwide. “The Western attitude towards eating insects has not encouraged developing countries to place it high on the agen da of development assistance,” FAO states on its website. “As a result, Western donors neglect insects as a possible food source. In fact, Western lifestyles are often copied in developing countries, discouraging the practice.”(5)FAO is trying to change the trend. Its technical position paper, which will lay out its plan about the introduction of edible insects into the food supply, is expected to become available by mi d-2012.76. What is the main idea of the text? (no more than 8 words)___________________________________________________________________77. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with proper words. (no more than 3 words)_______________________________________________________________________________ ___78. Why do scientists think insects can be a supplement to food supply?

On my second day I got on the first bus that passed, rode on it for several stops, then got off and walked on. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough, then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived, and even that I pronounced badly. I stopped to ask a newspaper-seller. He handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money and went on my way. The next person I asked was a policeman. He listened to me carefully, nodded and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again.I nodded politely and began walking in the dAbout an hour passed and I noticed that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and green fields were appearing on either side of me.

The favorite place to buy a hamburger is a fast food restaurant At fast food restaurants, people order their food, wait a few minutes to get it over the counter, and carry it to their tables themselves.

People wear any type of dress when they go to a fast food place. Second, they are fast. People who are busy do not want to spend time preparing their food or waiting while someone else prepares it. In fast food restaurants the food is usually ready before the customer even orders it. Finally , most food in a fast food restaurant is not expensive.

Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Chinese food is also served in some fast food restaurants.B. People can have almost every kind of food in fast food restaurants.C.

Different kinds of RestaurantsCMany years ago, scientists discovered that amino acids, a foundational building block of life forms on earth, also exist in space. One of the primary sources of this knowledge lies in numerous tests run on meteorites(陨星) that have landed on earth. Small traces of amino acids have been found, again and again, from a countless number of meteorites. An American scientist and researcher, Sandra Pizzarello, has recently discovered that the amino acids found on earth share the same simple structure as amino acids found in outer space. This discovery offers proof that extraterrestrial(来自地球外的) life could, quite realistically, resemble life on earth.Many years ago, Pizzarello and a colleague conducted research on amino acids extracted(提取) from a meteorite that landed in Australia in 1969. As they analyzed the material, they discovered a greater number of acids indicating a tendency towards “left-handedness” over “right-handedness”.Further evidence to support these findings came from the analysis of pristine meteorites found in Antarctica. The frozen conditions of Antarctica ensure that meteorites are preserved and remain unaffected by the earth. These buried meteorites are usually discovered due to constant motion of the ice, which eventually brings the objects back to the surface.According to Pizzarello, this discovery is important because it shows that a key molecular (分子的)trait(特征) that defines life here on earth appears to have had the same effect on the cosmic lineage(世系) of life in outer space. In other words, the fictional images of aliens from movies and popular television shows such as Star Trek might be more realistic than we used to think.Is there life on other planets? Do aliens resemble human beings? Maybe one day, with continued scientific research and advancement in space travel and research, we will find out.46. What are amino acids?A. A building material.B. A chemical.C. A life form.D. A building block of life forms.47. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Our knowledge of amino acids from outer space has been gained from the testson meteorites that landed on earth.B. The meteorites found in Antarctica had reamained in good condition largelybecause no one lives there.C. The producers of movies about aliens must have done research on amino acidsfrom meteorites.D. The author doesn’t believe that aliens might exist in outer space.48. What has Sandra Pizzarello discovered recently?A. Extraterrestrial life must resemble life on earth.B. The amino acids found on earth share the same simple structure as amino acidsfound in outer space.C. A lot of acids indicate a tendency towards “right-handedness” over “left-handedness”.D. A key molecular trait has the same effect on the cosmic lineage of life in outer space.49. What has made the discovery of the buried meteorites in Antarctica possible?A. Continued scientific research.B. Advancement in space travel and research.C. The constant motion of the ice eventually brings the objects back to the surface.D. The discovery of amino acids.50. What is probably the best title for the passage?A. Amino Acids Offer Proof of Alien Life in Outer SpaceB. There Is Life in Other PlanetsC. Extraterrestrial Life Resembles Life on EarthD. Small Traces of Amino Acids Have Been FoundDOn my planet, nobody needs to die. It was only ten years ago that scientists here on Xeron developed technology to bring the dead back to life. That does sound strange, doesn’t it? But of course these dead “people” are not made of flesh and blood but celluloid(假象牙) and computer chips. The scientists found that because our population was declining people were becoming longly in their small settlements. So they set to work to solve the problem. After twenty years of dedication they succeeded. They discovered that “people” could be copied from old home movies. The “person” is combined with computer records about him or her to create a virtual “relative”. The family can chat and live with him or her. Once a family takes up the offer of a constant companion, their upkeep is very cheap. He or she does not need food or clothes, is never ill and does not need haircuts or new shoes.This project has been such a success that the scientists are now working on ways to bring back “people” who died long ago so that they can tak e on new roles. In 2030 they hope to be able to reproduce some of the great people of the 20th century:perhaps even Karl Marx, Albert Einstein, or Chairman Mao.So if you are lonely, find an old home movies and choose the relative you would like to bring back to life. Then call Xeron 7257 and one of our representatives will call you back. Prices are very reasonable. Call today or write for our brochure for full details at Xeron People Regeneration Ltd, Bonjon 5675, Xeron. Please mark your envelope BROCHURE or quick reply!51. How are these dead “people” different from us?A. They are made of flesh and blood.B. They are made of celluloid and computer chips.C. They are made of flesh and celluloid.D. They are made of blood and computer chips.52. Wha t is NOT true about the copied “people” ?A. Their upkeep is very expensive.B. They don’t need food or clothes.C. They are never sick.D. They don’t need haircuts or new shoes.53. What is the reason for scientists to bring great minds back to life?A. So that they can take on now roles.B. Because scientists want to show off their talents.C. Because people need them.D. So that they can make the same contributions to society.54. When you want a relative to be brought back to life, which of the following ordersis right?a. call Xeron 7257b. find an old home moviec. choose the relative you’d like to bring back to lifed. one of the representatives calls you backe. a relative is brought back to lifeA. a-b-c-d-eB. a-c-b-d-eC. b-c-a-d-eD. b-a-c-d-e55.

This is certainly having an influence on the live sports events themselves, and there are both benefits and shortcomings to this.[2]Why has there been such growth in televised sport? For one thing, with digital broadcasting, there are now many more TV channels than there were even ten years ago.Moreover, sport has become an important form of entertainment, appealing to both men and women.[3]When are the benefits of this state of affairs? One obvious advantage to the profession is the addition of money provided by television companies. Large football clubs benefit financially from TV income and the top players can command very large salaries. Less popular sports also receive money that can be used in training and awareness-raising. What's more, there is a health benefit to some of the population, because through televised sport, more people have become interested in actually playing sport.[4]However,____________________ if so much sport is on television. Considering football again, many small clubs have suffered financial losses recently, as they cannot compete with the large ones.There has been a general falling in ticket sales, especially among smaller clubs.Fewer people attend live matches nowadays, preferring to watch from the comfort of their living room. And ticket prices have risen greatly.[5]To sum up, while televised sport has created many opportunities and benefited certain people and clubs very much, it has also been responsible for changing the nature of live sports events for ever.56.What is the main idea of the text?

It is our thoughts that 36 our states of mind. If we engage in negative, destructive thoughts, we can never have 37 of mind and happiness. When angry and negative thoughts try to enter, we can decide not to pursue them. If we say 38 to wrong thoughts, they will 39 stop bothering us.40 on good things. Most humans are a mixture of good and bad. If a close friend does something wrong, the nature of the mind is to think about his 41 . However, when we are criticizing others we can 42 be happy. If somebody has 43 us, try to force yourself to think of some of their good qualities. 44 we remember their good qualities, it helps us to be more 45 of their failings. Others will definitely 46 us, if we forget and forgive their mistakes. It is of great 47 to bringing more happiness into our lives.Don’t let yourself get bored. If we feel bored and have nothing to do, then happiness is 48 to achieve. The mind likes to be active. It is the best to look for something that requires our active 49 . If we look for passive entertainment, like watching TV, we do not 50 our mental and physical gifts. Often a real sense of happiness can come from a sense of achievement. Don’t wait for outer circumstances to be 51 . Often we think that happiness will come when our outer circumstances improve. However, in reality the world is always 52 problems. If we wait for the world to reach perfection, we won’t even have a small amount of happiness. To achieve inner happiness, we need to 53 an attitude of detachment (超然).

As the world has changed, the word has had many different meaning.“Cool〞 can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.〞 You may think, “He’s so cool,〞 when you see your favorite footballer.We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool〞. You can use it instead of many words suc h as “new〞or “surprising〞. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just one sentence: “It’s so cool!〞 Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity of words. Without “cool〞, some people have no words to show the same meaning. Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word “cool〞? I can. And I think they are also very cool.56. We know that the word “cool has had ________.A. only one meaningB. no meaningsC. many different meaningsD. the same meaning57. In the passage, the underlined word “scarcity〞means “________〞.A. misuseB. lackC. expressD. feel58. If you are _______ something, you may say, “It’s cool.〞A. interested inB. angry aboutC. afraid ofD. unhappy with59. The writer takes an example to show he is ________ the way the word is used.A. pleased withB. strange toC. worried aboutD. careful with60. In the passage, the writer suggests (暗示) that the word “cool〞________.A. can be used instead of many wordsB. usually means something interestingC. can make your life colorfulD. may not be so cool when it is used too oftenBFewer than half of American children who live close to school regularly walk or ride a bike to classes, according to a new study. Confused at the increasing rates of childhood obesity (肥胖), Sarah Martin led the study. Many schools have been cutting back on physical education. “Kids need to take advantage of the opportunities that do exist for physical activity,〞 said Martin.Few kids are found walking or biking to school. The numbers have dropped further as the population has grown while the number of schools has decreased. In 1969, 42 percent who lived far from school walked or cycled and in 2006, just 16 percent did, due to the further distance.Generally, studies have found that less educated families exercise less and have higher rates of obesity, and don’t view walking to school as very important. But Martin’s survey found that the children of well-educated parents were more likely to get a ride to school. She said in those families, both parents are likely to have well-paid jobs and may also believe it’s safer to drive their child to school on their way to work.Also, many rural areas are built without sidewalks, good crosswalks or other safety features. Although older urban communities were built with good sidewalks or crosswalks, newer communities — like many in the South — were designed around the car, and may lack continuous sidewalks or safe crosswalks.Liz Hansen recalled that when her son was young, the family lived just two blocks from his elementary school. But she usually drove him because she worried about his safety. Later, her son lived less than a mile from his high school, but he didn’t like to walk or even ride the bus. “It was uncool,〞 he said.61. For what purpose was the survey carried out?A. To encourage children to take more exercise.B. To stress the importance of physical activity.C. To find out what has caused children to become overweight.D. To prove the correctness of former studies.62. With the number of schools reducing, _________.A. the distance from schools has increased for many familiesB. it is more difficult to employ enough teachersC. it is more difficult for children to receive good educationD. working parents have to quit their jobs to send their children to school63. The largest number of children who walk or bike are probably found ________.A. in the new urban communitiesB. in the countryside areasC. in the older urban communitiesD. in the places where there are fewest schools64. Which of the following is NOT the reason why many families drive their children to school?A. Because of their attitude towards taking exercise.B. Because they can afford to drive children to school.C. Because of their concern about children’s safety.D. Because they are following the fashion to do so.65. What can we learn from the passage?A. Many parents are completely satisfied with the safety system of their neighborhood.B. Parents’ behavior will influence children’s attitude towards exercise.C. Physical education is being greatly stressed in many schools.D. The study led by Martin was the first to research childhood obesity.CChina sent up its first lunar probe〔月球探测器〕the Chang’e 1 on Oct. 24, the first step in a 10-year plan to send a rover to the moon and return it to the earth.The launch comes just weeks after China’s regional competitor Japan put a probe into orbit around the moon in a great step forward for Asia’s undeclared space race. India is likely to join it soon, with plans to send its own lunar probe into space. The Long March 3A rocket carrying the probe was launched from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Sichuan Province in southwestern China, shortly after 6 pm local time after officials from the China National Space Administration said weather conditions couldn’t be better that day.The Chang’e 1, named after a legendary Chinese goddess who flew to the moon will enter the moon’s orbit by Nov. 5, 2007. Several thousand people living within 1.5 miles of the launch center were evacuated two hours beforehand. More than 2,000 tourists were on hand to watch it fly into space.To achieve the goal to study the chemical and mineral composition of the lunar surface, the probe will use cameras and X-ray spectrometers to map three-dimensional (三维) images of the surface. The 5,070-pound Chang’e 1 is expected to send its first photo back to China in late November, 2007, and to carry out explorations of the moon for a year.The launch marks the first step of the moon mission. In about 2012 there will be a moon landing with a moon rover. In the third stage about five years later, another rover will land on the moon and return to the earth with soil and rock samples.71. What does the underlined word “it〞 refer to?A. The competition in international influence.B. The research into advanced technology.C. The regional space race in Asia.D. The control over other countries.72. When Chang’e 1 was sent up, the weather conditions of that day was ________.A. windlessB. quite suitable for the launchC. terribleD. not as good as expected73. What is the purpose of China’s sending up the Chang’e 1?A. To send photos of the moon back to the earth.B. To map three-dimensional images of the moon.C. To show the whole world its great achievement in space exploration.D. To find out the chemical and mineral composition of the moon.74. From the passage, we can learn that __________.A. people were not allowed to watch the probe flying into spaceB. China’s exploration of the moon is divided into three stagesC. Asian countries have declared that they would compete in the moon explorationD. photos of the moon would not be sent back to the earth until Nov. 5, 200775. What would be the best title of the passage?A. China has made a great step forward in space race.B. The Chang’e 1 realizes the dream of the Chinese.C. China sends up the first lunar probe, the Chang’e 1.D. China prepares to finish its exploration of the moon in 10 years.DInsurance companies provide a service to the community by protecting it against expected and unexpected disasters. Before an insurance company agrees to insure anything, it collects accurate figures about the risk. It knows, for example, that the risk of a man being killed in a plane accident is less than the risk he takes in crossing a busy road. This enables it to quote (报价) low figures for travel insurance. Sometimes the risk may be high, as in motor-racing or mountaineering. Then the company charges a much higher price. If too many climbers have accidents, the price rises further. If the majority of climbers fall off mountains, the company will refuse to insure them.An ordinary householder may wish to protect his home against fire or his property against burglary. A shopkeeper may wish to insure against theft. In normal cases, the company will check its statistics and quote a premium (保险费). If it is suspicious, it may refuse to quote. If it insures a shop and then receives a suspicious claim, it will investigate the claim as a means of protecting itself against false claims. It is not unknown for a businessman in debt to burn down his own premises so that he can claim much money from his insurance company. He can be sure that the fire will be investigated most carefully. Insurance companies also accept insurance against shipwreck or disaster in the air. Planes and ships are very expensive, so a large premium is charged, but a reduction is given to companies with an accident-free record. Every week, insurance companies receive premium payments from customers. These payments can form a very large total running into millions of dollars. The company does not leave the money in the bank. It invests in property, shares, farms and evenpaintings and stamps. Its aim is to obtain the best possible return on its investment. This is not as greedy as it may seem since this is one way by which it can keep its premiums down and continue to make a profit while being of service to the community.66. The first paragraph mainly tells us that insurance companies _____.A. protect the community against disastersB. often collect accurate figures about the riskC. base their decisions on the risk involvedD. charge different prices for the same cases67. The insurance company will usually investigate a suspicious claim to ______.A. find how they can avoid payingB. make sure that the claim is reasonableC. decide how much they should payD. find out when the accident happened68. The underlined word “premises〞 in Paragraph 2 probably means______.A. land and buildingsB. insurance contractC. debt papersD. financial papers69. The author’s attitude towards customers’ premium payments being invested by insurance companies is _____.A. criticalB. doubtfulC. neutralD. positive70. The author’s purpose in writing the passage is to ________.A. explain how insurance companies operateB. encourage people to invest in insurance companiesC. persuade people to insure against unexpected disastersD. advise people how to insure their life and property第四局部写作第一节阅读表达[1]The word addiction usually makes you think of alcohol or drugs, but in modern-day society we are seeing some new kinds of addictions. Some people are compulsive (难以自制的) shoppers. Others find it impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or playing computer games[2]Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity. Many people enjoy going to mall s or stores more and more everyday, but it’s more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on s hopping and usually buy things that they don’t need. Even though theydon’t have enough money, they buy everything they want.[3]The question is: why do they have this addiction? There isn’t a specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried, upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity as a way to forget their problems. Shopaholics say that they feel more important and better after they buy something. They also tend to have this addiction when they feel guilty.[4]Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addiction, but it can ___________. Some of them can be psychological. If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit. However, the process, like for most addictions, is long, and they suffer a lot. It can also cause financial problems. They just think about satisfying their feelings, so they spend money they don’t have. They get deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt and get sent to prison.76. List three activities that might develop into addictions based on the text.

Fill in the blank in paragraph 4 with proper words. (Please answer within 6words) _________________________________________79. Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?Accordingly, these shopaholics should turn to a certain organization for help so that they can stop compulsive shopping.__________________________________________________________________80. what does the underlined word “it〞 in the paragraph 4 refer to?( no more than 2 words)________________________________________________第二节书面表达〔总分为25分〕请你以“Cheating in exams〞为题写一篇短文,来描述一下为什么越来越多的学生在考试中作弊的现象,并包括如下要点:(1). 在各类考试中,学生作弊的现象和行为。

横峰中学2014—2015学年下学期高二英语第8周周练试卷总分:120分考试时间:100分钟第二部分阅读理解(共两节,40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,共30分)AIn April 2014,the world's oldest known message in a bottle was discovered floating in the Baltic Sea. It had spent 101 years lost in the ocean!The message was finally sent to the author's granddaughter.A German fisherman named Konrad Fischer found the brown bottle near Kiel,Germany. He said he nearly threw the bottle back into the water after pulling it out of a fishing net. Then he noticed something inside.The bottle in good condition contained a Danish postcard with two German stamps,dated May 17,1913. Although dampness had made most of the writing illegible(字迹模糊的),the readable part of the message asked whoever found it to return it to an address in Berlin. It even contained two stamps to pay for postage.From the address,researchers found that the postcard was written by a man named Richard Platz,who was 20 years old when he wrote the message. While he was hiking on the Baltic coast with a nature appreciation group,he threw the bottle into the sea. Then the researchers began a search for any living relatives of his. Sure enough,they were able to find his 62-year-old granddaughter,Angela Erdmann,who still lives in Berlin.“It was almost unbelievabl e,”Erdmann said upon being presented with her grandfather's bottle and message.“That was a pretty moving moment. Tears rolled down my face."Erdmann never knew her grandfather,who died in 1946,but says that the discovery of the bottle has made her want to learn more about him.The bottle remained on display at the International Maritime Museum in Hamburg until May 1. After that, the researchers examined the postcard and tried to figure out the meaning of the rest of the message.Previously,the oldest message found in a bottle spent nearly 98 years at sea and wasdiscovered in April 2012,according to Guinness World Records.21 . When Konrad Fischer picked up the bottle from the sea,.A. he thought it would bring him good luckB. he noticed the postcard inside immediatelyC. he decided to uncover the secret of the bottleD. he wanted to throw it back into the sea at first22. Why did Richard Platz throw the bottle with the message into the sea?A. He expected his granddaughter could find the postcard.B. He wished the finder would send the postcard to his home.C. He believed his postcard would be kept secret at sea forever.D. He thought he could make friends with the finder of the bottle.23.What can be the best title for this passage?A. The finding of a floating bottle at the seaB. A one-century-old letter to a granddaughterC. The world's oldest message in a floating bottleD. The oldest Danish postcard in a floating bottleBThere are some strange driving laws in different countries.A. The car wash facilities.B. Any public placeC. Your homeD. The forest25.

This text can most likely be found in _______.A. a law documentB. a fashion magazineC. an international newspaperD. a column on interesting culturesCLook at the keyboard of any standard typewriter or computer. “Q” ”W” “E”“R” “T” and “Y” are the first six letters. Who decided on this arrangement of the letters? And why?People tried for centuries to invent the typewriter. In 1714 in England, Henry Mill filed a patent for a machine called An Artificial Machine Or Method for the Impressing or Transcribing of Letters, Singly or Progressively one after another, as in Writing, drawing upon this way all Writing may be absorbed in Paper so Neat and Exact as not to be distinguished from Print. That machine probably didn’t sell because no one could remember its name!The first practical typewriter was patented in the United States in 1868 by Christopher Latham Sholes. His machine was known as the type-writer. It had a movable carriage, a lever for turning paper from line to line, and a keyboard on which the letters were arranged in alphabetical order.But Sholes had a problem. On hi s first model, his “ABC” key arrangement caused the keys to jam when the typist worked quickly. Sholes didn’t know how to keep the keys from sticking, so his solution was to keep the typist from typing too fast. Sholes asked his brother-in-1aw to rearrange the keyboard so that the commonest letters were not so close together and the type bars would come from opposite directions. Thus they would not clash together and jam the machine. The new arrangement was the QWERTY arrangement typists use today. Of course, Sholes claimed that the new arrangement was scientific and would add speed and efficiency. The only efficiency it added was to slow the typist down, since almost any word in the English language required the typist’s fingers to cover more distance on th e keyboard.The advantages of the typewriter outweighed the disadvantages of the keyboard. Typists memorized the crazy letter arrangement, and the typewriter became a huge success. By the time typists had memorized the new arrangement of letters and built their speed, typewriter technology had improved, and the keys didn’t stick as badly as they had at first.28. We know from the passage that the inventor of the first practical typewriteris_____.A. Henry MillB. Christopher Latham SholesC. Sholes’ brother-in-lawD. Albert Einstein29.The author thinks the machine invented by Henry Mill could not be soldbecause______.A. it was difficult for people to accept new thingsB. there were great disadvantages of the key boardC. the name of the machine was too longD. the machine could not be distinguished from print30. Sholes decided the QWERTY arrangement of the keyboard in order to______.A. solve the problem of the keys jammingB. arrange the letters in alphabetical orderC. cause the keys to jam when the typist worked quicklyD. compete with “ABC” key arrangement31. It is inferred that the QWERTY arrangement of the keyboard______.A. is the most scientific arrangementB. adds speed and efficiency oftypistsC. is easy for typists to memorizeD. keeps the typist from typing too fastDFailure is mother of success, as the Chinese saying goes. I know it is not easy as parents to see our children failing. However, there is great value in “failure”.I remember many years ago when I was a student leader, I organized a camp with my committee, which turned out to be a disaster. We scheduled activities too close together, and didn’t assign(分配) enough time for meal and bath.My leaders, who I thought were thoroughly angry with us, led us lead, nevertheless. They kept us in check, and had a few talks with us during the camp and we readjusted the schedule. They gave us the freedom to lead and also the freedom to fail.Many years down the road, I was a guest speaker at a similar camp. Again, it was a disaster for different reasons. The student wrote a schedule, and the leaders rewrote it. The student came up with a menu, and the leaders changed it. While at the camp, the leaders amended (修改) the schedule further. The poor committee could n’t attempt to lead without being ignored by their leaders.To be sure, I learned more from my failed camp than the one at which I was a guest. Having the skills to plan a camp at 16 set the foundation (基础) for future skills to plan a project and see it through at the workplace.As parents, many of us have much about how success arises from failure. The history of silence is filled with such stories: an experiment that went hopelessly wrong eventually led to something right.Most successes are achieved through persistence(坚持), and often only after persevering through failures, sometimes many times over. We only succeed because ofa failure.32.In the first paragraph the author want to say that _______.A. children are more likely to fail than adultsB. Parents should allow children to make mistakesC. parents should know how to lead their children to succeedD. parents should help their children know the value of failure33.Why did the author fail to organize a successful camp?A. Because he didn’t a rrange enough activitiesB. Because he didn’t prepare meals for campers.C. Because he didn’t arrange the time reasonablyD. Because he didn’t take advice from the leaders.34.It can be inferred from the passage that the author’s leaders ______.A. were disappointed with the studentsB. were not good at giving adviceC. were strict with the studentsD. were patient with the students35.By attending the two camps, the author learned that ______.A. leaders should care much about students’need.B. students should be given enough freedomC. students should make a schedule by themselvesD. students should ignore leaders’orders.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)Having a happier life is something we all always struggle for.
