Years ago I moved to Woodland Hills to take a job in a small hospital’ s emergency department. No one wanted to work on Christmas Eve, so the shift(轮班)went to me.
I kissed my family goodbye and went off to spend the night in the hospital. It was
a thankless job.
At 9 pm, the ambulance brought in a man in his 60s who was having a heart attack.
His face was pale, and he was frightened. The whole night I did my best to save his
life. Before I left in the morning to spend Christmas with my family, I stopped by
to see how he was doing. It was still tough, but he had survived the night and was
sleeping.
The following year I got Christmas Eve duty again. At 9 pm sharp, the ward clerk
told me there was a couple who wanted to speak with me. When I approached them, the
man introduced himself as Mr. Lee and said,“ You probably don’t remember me, but last Christmas Eve you saved my life. Thank you for the year you gave me.” He and his wife hugged me, handed me a small gift, and left.
The following year a new doctor had joined the group, but I wanted to see if Mr.
and Mrs. Lee would return. This time, I volunteered for the shift. I kept an eye on
the door. Once again, at exactly 9 pm, the Lees appeared, carrying a warmly wrapped
bundle. It was their new grandchild. Mr. Lee, his family and I spent 13 Christmas
Eves together.
The last year I saw him, he brought me a gift. I carefully opened the package
and found a crystal bell inside. It was carved with a single word: Friendship. Now,
my family,friends and I ring that bell every Christmas Eve at exactly 9 pm and offer our best wishes to the man who we won’t forget.

books a weekend away to Paris with her lazy, neglectful boyfriend. When he fails to
turn up, she is alone in the city. That is, until she meets Fabien, who shows her
the charms of the French capital -- in more ways than one.
Adele Geras’ s moving story Out In The Dark was set in World War I,in which young Rob came back from the battlefields.Determined to find the officer’s widow to return the photo of her and their daughter that the captain kept with him, he traveled several thousand miles but never gave up.
Dead Man Talking is a fantastic tale of Pat, who had a terrible fight with his

The United States Capitol Domein Washington, DC, is recognized around the world as a symbol of the U.S. government. Since last November, the dome has been surrounded by metal poles, or scaffolding (脚手架) , and heavy cloth as part of a
repair project.
The last major repair work on the U.S. Capitol took place in 1960. Since then,
the dome has become weathered and worn. The Architect of the Capitol group reports the dome has more than 1,000 narrow breaks on its surface and other damage.
The dome was completed around 1863. U.S. Senate Historian Don Ritchie says the
dome’s cast iron frame is at special risk of weathering. “ The capitol dome, being cast iron, has been hit by lightning countless times. And so the current construction
is to repair the leaks, to fill the cracks, to take off excess (剩余的) layers of paint. ”
Workers are removing old paint. They covered a large part of the building in
plastic and a special cloth to protect workers from the wind and other elements. Much of the work is done at night, when lawmakers are not in the building.
Some recent visitors to the Capitol were unhappy about its current appearance.
They had hoped to get a picture of the usually shining dome. Joyce said, “ It was dramatic, and very fantastic, and all white, but when I come here today, it is
under construction so my family cannot see it clearly, it is kind of a disappointment. ”
Others were more understanding of the repairs. Rick Jones, another visitor, said, “ It ’s a little inconvenient for us not to see the dome but you have to think about
the future and the people will be coming to this place for centuries ... and you know, there just needs to be preventive maintenance. I am not upset with that at all.”
The project is expected to take more than two years to complete. The dome should
be ready for the inauguration of a new president in January 2017.
32.We can learn from the passage that the United States Capitol Dome is ______.
A.worn by exposure to the weather
B.surrounded by many repair projects
C.well maintained and in excellent condition
D.acknowledged as a symbol of the U.K. government
33.According to Don Ritchie, the present repair work involves ______.
a. stopping the leaks
b. changing the frame
c.
removing the old paint d.
replacing the lights
e. filling the narrow breaks
A. abc
B. bcd
C.bde
D. ace
34. Which of the following can describe the recent visitors to the Capitol?
A. They could get a clear look at the dome.
B. They were impressed by the white dome’ s fantastic beauty.
C. They held different views on the Capitol’s current appearance.
D. They were all disappointed at the sight of the Capitol building.
35.The underlined word“ inauguration” in the last paragraph most probably means
______.
A. tour
B. taking office
C. interview
D. taking photos

Imagine a time 61 people feel like they ’ re inside their favorite video games, or can travel the world without leaving home. This 62 (become) possible as virtual reality (VR) continues to develop. Experts say VR was a hot topic at the
2015 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 63 (hold) on January 6 in
Las Vegas, Nevada. Of the 64 (approximate) 3,900 exhibitors at the show, more

VR technology started with games, but developers say it has the potential to
transform 65 aspects of our life.
Manuel Gutierrez-Novelo, co-founder of ImmersiON-VRelia, says VR can be a great
tool for 66 (educate). “ We can create an animation of the solar system or the molecular (分子的) structure of water, ” he says. “ If you see them in a virtual reality environment, not reading about them in a book 67 watching a video, I believe
you will be able to learn about these things better. ”
According to Nick Nassiri of Razer, innovations (新发明 ) in virtual reality will keep 68 (come) up. He believes they ’ ll happen first in gaming, then extend

I hear that you had a big fight with your best friend, May, because you have
2017届高三上学期期末考试一试卷(22)
different opinions on whether to accept another girl into your friend circle. I’d like to give you some suggestion.
Even closest friends have quarrels, so don’t take it too serious. I understand
that your fight start from different opinions. You should try putting yourself with
her shoes. Sometimes it is the good idea for both to step back a little. For your
disagreements, why not letting the girl join your group first and see how well it’s going? In the meantime, you can stick to being supportive and respectful. Then you
can further discuss the issue, and which can help strengthen your own friendship.
Even if you disagree, it doesn’ t mean you can’ t still friends. Don’ t spend your energy trying to change you.

Long ago, rain boots usually came in black or dull green. Farmers wore them.
But now shops are selling them in every color and with beautiful decorations. That ’s because the rain boot has been fashionable since around 2004.
But the rain boot has been fashion forward before. It began in 1817 when the
Duke of Wellington started wearing a narrower, simpler boot. Being a famous war hero, men were quick to copy his style and the boot soon became a fashion. It went out of
fashion at the end of the 19th century, but farmers, workers, dog walkers carried
on wearing them.
So why have they become fashionable again? It ’ s part of the general trend for
big boots: biker boots and cowboy boots are popular. But surely it ’s a class thing
