The man in the Mercury(水星) capsule(宇宙飞行容器)was alone, but friendly voices reached him by radio. On the dark land 100 miles below, he saw a sprinkling of light. They marked the city of Perth, where people had turned on their lights as a greeting to him.In Friendship7, Glenn radioed, “The lights show up very well. Thank for everybody for turning them on.” His capsule raced on to the east.During his three orbits of the earth, Glenn could always reach one of eighteen tracking stations. Some of them were on ship at sea. Others were in the United States.Many of the stations had been built with the help of other countries. These countries allowed Americans to bring in radio equipment and set it up. Without the help of such lands as Nigeria(尼日利亚), Zanzibar(尚巴西,坦桑尼亚领土的一部分), and Mexico, there would have been breaks in the worldwide radio network.John H. Glenn. Jr., was the first America to orbit the earth. For his flight, the tracking network(跟踪网络) covered 60,000 route miles. Five hundred men worked in the stations al ong the route. Since his flight, the network has grown. Today, it covers more than 100,000 route miles and has about one hundred stations. One-third of these stations are outside of the United States.26.This passage is mainly about .A.talking to ships at sea around the worldB. a satellite which fell intothe oceanC.the first American to orbit the earthD. breaks in the worldwidenetwork27.

Countries must work together to track satellites.B. Nobody has orbited the earth besides Glenn.C. The tracking network covers many more route miles now than before.D. There are now about 70 tracking stations in the United States.Thomas Edison was one of ten said to be the greatest genius of his age. There are only a few men in all of the history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be happy only because someone said he was a genius. “There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He said that what people called genius was mostly hard wor k.But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. Nature, he often said, is full of secrets. He tried to understand them; then, he tried to learn what could usefully be done with them.Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people will do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking can give men enjoyment and pleasure.Edison could not understand how anyone could be uninterested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what ideas he h ad about life. “Work,” he answered. “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.31.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.Edison invented the electric light.B.Few men in history can change other people’s life.C.Edison has changed the life of many other people.D.Many other people have changed Edison’s life.32.Edison thought .A. he could be happy if he was a geniusB. genius could do better than hard workC. hard work could do better than geniusD. genius plays the most important part in one’s success33.Edison was .A. very much interested in natureB. uninterested in making people happier by discovering the secrets of natureC. interested in changing people’s ideasD. interested in discovering the secrets of nature34.In Edison’s op inion, .A. thinking can supply people with enjoyment and pleasure as well as helpB. there are few secrets for him to discover laterC. hard work is the second important thing in making people successfulD. people’s successs lies mostly in genius35. The last sentence in the passage most probably implies .A. life is too short for Edison to invent more for human beingsB. People of his time were ready to give Edison another 100 years’ workC. Edison was able to live and work for 100 yearsD. Edison made 100 inventions in his lifeCWhen I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother’s Chi nese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not toUnderstand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.My mother has realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人).I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing, “This is Mrs. Tan.”And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he doesn’t send me cheek already two week lone.”And then, in perfect English I said: “I’m getting rather concerned .You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived.”Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I e to New York tell him front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t tolerate any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural.It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.36.Why was the author’s mother poorly served?A.She was unable to speak good English.B.She was often misunderstood.C.She was not clearly heard.D.She was not very polite.37.From Paragorph 2, we know that the author was .A.good a pretendingB.rude to the stockbrokerC.ready to help her motherD.unwilling to phone for her mother38.After the author made the phone call, .A.they forgave the stockbrokerB.they failed to get the checkC.they went to New York immediatelyD.they spoke to their boss at once39.What does the author think of her mother’s English now?A.It confuses her.B.It embarrasses her.C.It helps her understand the world.D.It helps her tolerate rude people.40.We can inter from the passage that Chinese English .A.is clear and natural to non-native speakersB.is vivid and direct to non-native speakersC.has a verv bad reputation in AmericaD.may bring inconvenience in America四、英语知识运用(满分45分)第一节完型填空(每小题1.5分,共30分)阅读下面短文,将从短文后各题所给的A,B,C,D四个选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项There are more than forty universities in Britain—nearly twice as many as in 1960.

He was a quiet child who spent much of his time alone. He was slow to talk a nd had difficulty learning to read. When Albert was five years old, his father gave him a compass. The child was filled with wonder when he discovered that the compass needle always pointed in the same direction — the north. He asked his father and his uncle what caused the needle to move.Albert did not like school. The German schools of that time we re not pleasant. Students could not ask questions. Albert said he felt as if he were in prison.In 1905, Albert Einstein published some important papers in a German scientific magazine. They included one of the most i mportant scientific documents in history. It explained what ca me to be called his “Special Theory of Relativity”. Ten years la ter, he expanded it to a “General Theory of Relativity”.In 1921, he won the Nobel Prize in Physics. It was given to hi m not for his theories of relativity, but for his discovery of the l aw of the photoelectric effect.Albert Einstein left Germany when Adolph Hitler came to pow er in 1933. He moved to the United States to continue his res earch. Einstein became a citizen of the United States in 1940. Einstein was a famous man, but you would not have known that by looking at him. His white hair was long and wild. He wor e old clothes. He showed an inner joy when he was playing hi s violin or talking about his work. Students and friends said he had a way of explaining difficult ideas using images that were easy to understand.Einstein spent the last twenty-five years of his life working on what he called a “unified field t heory”.

The couple had dec ided that instead of hosting their friends and family for a traditi onal feast reception, they would feed the victims from an eart hquake-stricken area.The idea came from the bridegroom’s father, Ted, who volunt eers for a Turkish relief organization. For the past few years, t he organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of pe ople who have suffered from natural disasters. He approache d a representative of the organization and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding them for the day.Then he told his son, who was surprised by the suggestion, b ut soon won over. When he told that to the bride, she was real ly shocked but finally accepted because in southeastern Turk ey there is a real culture of sharing with people in need. They love to share their food, their table and everything they have. And afterwards she was quite amazed about it. So, they arriv ed at the distribution center on Thursday to spend the day ser ving food and taking photographs with their grateful recipients (接受者).On Tuesday evening, the newly married couple were still plea sed with their decision to quit a personal celebration for one w ith a greater good. “It’s like sharing a dinner with your friends and family who have this kind of thing on a daily basis or shari ng something with people who don’t even have the most basi c things,” Michael said. “Hopefully, this will also give the start f or other wedding dinners to be held here with our brothers and sisters in need.”8.Why was there so many homeless people in Kilis?A. To attend Michael and Linda’s wedding.B. To support the organization.C. To escape the damaging earthquake.D. To help distribute free daily meals.9. How did the couple celebrate their wedding?A. They treated their friends and relatives to a big dinner.B. They afforded the entire cost of the day for feeding victims.C. They shared their happiness with the relatives in Kilis.D.

Kilis is a place which lies in southeastern TurkeyB. Ted was a representative of the organizationC. Linda adopted the suggestion immediately she heard itD. Michael doubted if more new couples would follow himDEnglish songs have been very popular for people around the world for many decades. Songs from Elvis Presley to Ricky M artin, from the Beatles to Eminem and from Natalie Cole to Bri tney Spears have all been enjoyed by people around the worl d, even for people who don’t speak English, and even for peo ple who don’t speak English.From my experience, some people listen to English songs for 20-30 years but still don’t achieve any good English skills. Some people choose English songs to be their main learning metho d, but most of them fail.Listening to English songs does not help you to speak English fluently. It does help you gain some vocabulary, but most of t hese words are unusual ones that you don’t use in everyday li fe. You won’t learn the sentence “It is a difficult project. We re ally need to meet the deadline.” in any English songs. All you will hear are love, passion, infection, hate and blue, for the fee ling, not the color.People like using English songs to practice English skills beca use it’s easy and enjoyable. They think that sitting in the car li stening to English songs day after day will improve their Engli sh skills. It actually will not.You will definitely not improve your listening skills because no rmal people don’t speak with a tune. People don’t talk like Emi nem’s songs. You can’t get yourself familiar with English pron unciation or accent just from listening to English songs. The w ords that they pronounce in the songs are not the words that y ou will hear in your everyday life. They can even confuse you more about how English is pronounced.I would fully encourage you to watch English movies and liste n to radio news or other normal talks, but not music. Of cours e, you can consume it for fun but not with the aim of improvin g your English skills. Having good English skills is not that eas y. Remember you should work hard to improve your English s tep by step.12. According to the passage, listening to English songs can help you _________.A. improve your English grammarB. speak English more fl uentlyC. gain the skills of writingD. learn more new words13. What can we learn about the words in English songs?A. Most of them are vivid and interesting.B. They are seldom used in people’s everyday life.C. English learners should learn more of them.D. They can help people improve their pronunciation.14. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer may be _________.A. an experienced English learnerB. a well-known pop singerC. a Chinese music fanD. an American teacher15. The last paragraph is written mainly to _________.A. give us some advice on how to learn EnglishB. encourage us to go to see more filmsC. tell us learning English is hard for everyoneD. warn us not to listen to music in our daily life第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AFrom the modern London Eye to the historic Tower of London, below are London's most visited tourist attractions. Many of London's top attractions are free, making them affordable places to learn about some culture. Whether you prefer history or modern art, you'll find it at one of these must-visit spots.British MuseumThe world-famous British Museum exhibits the works of man from prehistoric to modern times, from around the world. The most interesting and exciting parts include the Rosetta Stone, the Parthenon sculptures (雕塑) and the mummies in the Ancient Egypt collection. Some exhibitions require tickets.National GalleryThe greatest and most beautiful building of Trafalgar Square, London's National Gallery is a vast space filled with Western European paintings from the 13th to the 19th centuries. In this impressive art gallery you can find works by masters such as Van Gogh, da Vinci, Botticelli, Constable, Renoir, Titian and Stubbs. Some exhibitions require tickets.Tate ModernSitting on the banks of the Thames is the Tate Modern, Britain's national museum of modern and contemporary (当代的) art. Its unique shape is due to it being a power station before. The gallery's restaurants offer wonderful views across the city. Some exhibitions require tickets.Coca-Cola London EyeThe Coca-Cola London Eye is a major feature of London's skyline. It has some of London's best views from its 32 capsules, each weighing 10 tonnes and holding up to 25 people. Climb aboard for a breathtaking experience, with an unforgettable view of more than 55 of London's most famous landmarks — all in just 30 minutes!Madame TussaudsAt Madame Tussauds, you'll come face-to-face with some of the world's most famous faces. From Shakespeare to Lady Gaga you'll meet influential figures from show business, sport, politics and even royalty. Strike a pose with Usain Bolt, get close to One Direction or receive a once-in-a-lifetime audience with Her Majesty the Queen.1. What do the British Museum and the National Gallery have in common?A. Both have chargeable exhibitions.B. Both are on the banks of the Thames.C. Both have vast spaces and special shapes.D. Both exhibit modern and contemporary art.2. If visitors want to get a better view of London's famous landmarks, they should visit _____.A. the Tate ModernB. the British MuseumC. the National GalleryD. the Coca-Cola London Eye3. In Madame Tussauds, visitors can _____.A. enjoy Shakespeare's worksB. talk to some famous peopleC. watch Lady Gaga's performanceD. see figures of many influential peopleBNext month, about 30,000 runners will take to the streets of Boston, Massachusetts, for one of the world’s oldest and mos t famous races, the Boston Marathon. Nearly half the competitors in the 26.2-mile race will be women. But for most of the race’s 119-year history, only men were officially allowed to compete.A woman named Roberta “Bobbi” Gibb helped change that in 1966, w hen she secretly ran the marathon and finished ahead of most of the men. “Word went outaround the world that a woman had done the impossible,” says Gibb. “It changed the way men thought about women.”Gibb saw her first Boston Marathon in 1964, while running through her neighborhood. She was inspired to run the race herself. For nearly two years, Gibb trained to build the energy and strength she’d need to finish. But when she sent in an application for the 1966 race, it was turned down.At the time, the longest official races for women were only 1.5 miles. Many people didn’t think women were physically capable of running longer distances. Running a marathon was also seen as “unladylike.”But the 23-year-old Gibb refused to let go of her dream. She came up with a plan to run the race anyway. On April 19, she showed up at the marathon wearing her brother’s shorts and a sweatshirt to hide the fact that she was a woman.Gibb hid in the bushes near the starting line. When the race began, she jumped into the pack. Shortly into the race, Gibb took off her sweatshirt. To her surprise, the crowd cheered when they realized she was a woman. Gibb finished the race in 3 hours and 21 minutes — faster than two thirds of the male runners.Gibb opened the door for future female long-distance runners. In the years that followed, she and other women ran in the Boston Marathon, even though the rules still prohibited (禁止) women from running in the race. Finally, in 1972, the marathon was officially opened to women.4. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably refers to the thoughts that women couldn’t _____.A. win a long-distance raceB. take the place of menC. complete a marathonD. compete with men5. What happened to Gibb when she was found running the 1966 Boston Marathon?A. She ran back to the starting line.B. She got support from the crowd.C. She was driven away from the race.D. She took off her brother’s sweatshirt.6. Which of the following can best describe Gibb?A. Easy-going.B. Soft-hearted.C. Strong-willed.D. Open-minded.7. What’s probably the best title for the text?A. Leading a new lifeB. Running into historyC. Long-distance runnersD. The world’s oldest raceCFrom self-driving cars to carebots for elderly people, rapid development in technology has long represented a possible threat to many jobs normally performed by people. But experts now believe that almost 50 percent of occupations existing today will be completely unnecessary by 2025 as artificial intelligence continues to change businesses.“The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work, and a revolution will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces,” said Peter Andrew, Director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific.A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.The report is based on interviews with 200 experts, business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific, Europe and North America. It shows that in the UStechnology already destroys more jobs than it creates.But the report states: “Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs —just changing what people do.” Growth in new jobs could occur as much, according to the research.“The growth of 20 t o 40 person companies that have the speed and technological know-how will directly challenge big companies,” it states.A 2014 report by Pew Research found 52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years. The optimists pictured “a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create,” according to Aaron Smith, the report's co-author.“Technology will continue to affect job s, but more jobs seem likely to be created. Although there have always been unemployed people, when we reached a few billion people there were billions of jobs. There is no shortage of things that need to be done and that will not change,” Microsoft's Jona than Grudin told researchers.8. We can infer from the text that in the future _____.A. people will face many difficultiesB. people will take up more creative jobsC. artificial intelligence will threaten people's livesD. most jobs will be done in traditional workplaces9. According to the report, _____.A. people won't necessarily lose jobsB. big companies will face fewer challengesC. small companies will win against big companiesD. most people will become interested in technology10. What is the attitude of most experts in artificial intelligence and robotics to the future?A. Mixed.B. Worried.C. Hopeful.D. Doubtful.11. Jonathan Grudin's words in the last paragraph suggest that _____.A. there will be enough jobs for peopleB. things will change a lot in a few yearsC. many people will become unemployedD. technology will totally change future jobs第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theater’s location(位置) was also a reason. "This used to be the center of town," he said. "Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses."Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater had shown its last movie. The theater will be missed.4. In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?A. It made room for new equipment.B. It signaled the closedown of the theater.C. It was done with the help of the audience.D. It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.5. Why was The Last Picture Show put on?A. It was an all-time classic.B. It was about the history of the town.C. The audience requested it.D. The theater owner found it suitable.6. What will probably happen to the building?A. It will be repaired.B. It will be turned into a museum.C. It will be knocked down.D. It will be sold to the city government.7. What can we infer about the audience?A. They are disappointed with Bradford.B. They are sad to part with the old theater.C. They are supportive of the city officials.D. They are eager to have a shopping center.CSpring is a wonderful season to celebrate rebirth and new life. The long,cold winter is over. The weather is warmer and sunnier. The trees again have leaves and the flowers are blooming. The season represents hope,joy and beauty. At this time,many people think of this classical music piece—Spring,which shows happiness. Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi wrote it in the seventeen hundreds.However,not all songs about spring are happy. This song written and sung by K.D. Lang is about dreaming of spring in cold dark places. She recorded I Dream of Spring in 2008.Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein wrote It Might as Well Be Spring for the movie State Fair in 1945.Frank Sinatra sings it. It is a feeling of restlessness or excitement brought on by the coming of spring. Richard Rodgers also wrote Spring Is Here,this time with Lorenz Hart. Ella Fitzgerald sings this song about feeling lonely during this season.Frank Loesser wrote the sad song,Spring Will Be a Little Late This Year. Why has the season been delayed? Because the singer's lover has left her. Sarah Vaughn released(发行) her version of the song in 1953.By now you may be thinking,“Enough with the sad songs,already!”OK,then how about a cowboy song? Gene Autry was one of the America's most famous singing cowboys. He recorded When It's Springtime in the Rockies in 1937.And finally,we'll leave you with a sunny song called Up Jumped Spring. Freddie Hubbard wrote this jazz song in 1977 and Billy Taylor Trio performs it.8. If you are in a bad mood,you'd better listen to________.A.Up Jumped SpringB.I Dream of SpringC.Spring Is HereD.Spring Will Be a Little Late This Year9.

And it may actually make you a more thoughtful person as you learn to connect with the various characters. But there’s more. A new study discovered that reading more than 3.5 hours per week actually increased a person’s lifespan(寿命)by 23 percent — about 12 years for the people involved in the study.The study was led by a group of researchers at Yale University. It looked at 3,635 people, both men and women but all older than 50. The researchers divided them into three categories: those who didn’t read books; those who read up to 3.5 hours a week; those who read more than 3.5 hours a week.After the researchers adjusted for factors like education, health and income, the data showed that, on average, those who read about 3.5 hours a week were 17 percent less likely to die.In addition, the study examined people who read newspapers and magazines and found that they were 11 percent less likely to die than non-readers, but only if theyspent more than seven hours reading each week. That may be due to the different forms of these items. When people read newspapers or magazines, they tend to skim the material rather than read it fully. Avni Bavishi, the study’s leader, said, “We believe people need to know, learn and understand more things when they are reading books, because they’re longer and there are more cha racters, more plots to follow, and more connections to make.”From all of this, the authors concluded that, as with a healthy diet and exercise, books appear to promote a “significant survival advantage.”Clearly, there is a need for more study. We’re certain that book lovers all around the world will be glad to provide the data needed to make further conclusions.24. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. A few people think that reading can help them relax.B. Reading can make a person more sensitive.C. Reading can help a person to live a longer life.D. Most people think that reading can help them to live a better life.25. What can we learn about the people in the study from the text?A. All of them were older than fifty.B. Most of them were women readers.C. More than half of them were college students.D. They were divided into four groups by the researchers.26. Generally speaking, those who read newspapers and magazines ______ than those who readbooks.A. live longerB. are more likely to be positiveC. have a better ability to understandD. get fewer benefits in terms of the lifespanCDid you know that the Navy trained dolphins to find mines(地雷) which often blow up? Apparently, it was a cost-effective method; now, the Navy are preparing to replacethe dolphins with robots, not because they were doing a bad job or because they want to do a more human job, but because, guess what? Robots are more cost effective. Not particularly known for being humans, they’re also not planning to release or retire the dolphins, but they’re considering what other jobs they could be assigned to — probably some just as dangerous.“Everyone is familiar with security patrol dogs. You m ay even know that because of their exceptionally keen sense of smell, dogs like beagles are also used to detect (发现)drugs and bombs, or land mines. But a dog would not be effective in finding a sea mine,” reads the Navy’s site. “But just as the dog’s keen sense of smell makes it ideal for detecting land mines, the U.S. Navy has found that the biological sonar(声呐) of dolphins, called echolocation, makes them uniquely effective at locating sea mines so they can be avoided or removed.”The Navy will now equip underwater robots which will do the same job at a bigger distance, without needing constant rest and manned monitor. I, for one, hope the dolphins will be given a break and assigned to a safer task.27. Why will robots take the place of dolphins to find mines?A. Because dolphins do very bad jobs.B. Because dolphins are endangered animals.C. Because scientists want to be friendly to dolphins.D. Because using robots is cheaper.28. Dogs can be used to detect drugs due to ______.A. excellent sense of smellB. higher IQ compared with dolphinsC. echolocationD. biological sonar29. The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refers to ______.A. security patrol dogsB. dolphinsC. sea minesD. the US Navy30.What is the main idea of the passage?A. Robots are going to take the place of dolphins to find mines.B. Dolphins are good at finding mines.C. Robots are welcome by humans because of their efficiency.D. Compared to security patrol dogs, dolphins do well in finding sea mines.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2018_2019学年高二英语10月月考试题word版本
2018年高二上学期第二次月考英语试卷第I卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。
ATears ran down from my eyes as I saw the essay my high school English teacher had just handed back. A big F was written on top. I was hopeless. I was stupid! My face burned with shame when my classmates called me stupid.“I’m the only one who doesn’t know my ABCs!” I sobbed to Mom.“I’ll help,” she promised.Every day I sat with her, but to me, cat looked like cta and red was reb. Frustrated(感到挫败的), I would return to my bedroom and draw, filling the paper with houses, restaurants and offices.“When I grow up, I want my own store,”I told Mom, pointing to my drawings.“That’s great!” she said, “but first you have to learn to read.”Later, I was diagnosed with dyslexia (失读症). So Mom took me to a learning centre, where I was given reading exercises. But I still had a hard time. Finally, I graduated, but I was afraid of my reading skills.“I’ll never get a job!” I cried to Mom later again.“Don’t focus on what you can’t do,” she comforted, “Concentrate on what you really can.”But what can I do? I wondered. Suddenly, I thought of the drawings I’d made as a child and my dream of having my own store. I enjoyed sales so much that over the next few years, I tried my hand at other businesses. Today, I watch over seven branches. We have 187 employees and $15 million in sales.While I’ll never be what my teachers might have wanted, I am a success--on my own terms. The other day a student sent me a card, reading: You gave me so muchconfidence. I hope to be like you when I am big. Tears of joy filled my eyes. This was my A, and I smiled.1. Why did the author feel so ashamed at school?A. His teacher ignored him in class.B. His teacher didn’t grade his essay.C. He failed to finish his essay in time.D. His classmates looked down upon him.2. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling to his mother?A. Grateful.B. Guilty(内疚的).C. Doubtful.D. Regretful.3. Which of the following can match the text?A. No pains, no gains.B. Never too old to learn.C. Every man has his value.D. Two heads are better than one.BChinese scientists report they have made a simple printer that uses water instead of ink. The printed characters last for a day on special paper, which can then be reused.“Every time you print it’s fresh,”said Professor Zhang at Jilin University in Changchun, China. “We are using an inkjet printer(喷墨打印机). We just fill the cartridges (墨盒) with water and put it back. It’s like normal printing. The magic is in the paper.”Printing typically involves large amounts of waste paper and expensive ink to prepare documents often read only once. This new method allows the paper to be reused numerous times at possibly cheaper running costs.Zhang and his team developed a special coating(涂层) on the paper that responds to the water. So far, they have been able to print various Chinese andEnglish characters using four colors, with water as a key that activate the dye molecule (染料分子). The next step is to combine colors to get black. The possibility of reusing paper instead of throwing it away is rousing interest, according to Kia Barton, an expert in high-performance printing technology.“Going toward greener techniques of printing is helpful,” Baton said, “For standard typing, I think it’s an interesting idea and something worth exploring.”Zhang foresees advances in printing technology that will allow users to have entire newspapers or magazines printed at home with paper that could be recycled over and over again. Based on 10 yuan per sheet of water-jet paper, Zhang estimates the cost at one-seventeenth the present price of inkjet printing.That may not be cheap enough, however.“Technology for making rewritable paper is exciting as a new approach for avoiding the problem of single-use paper,” said Norman Marsolan. “Because the present paper products are inexpensive, however, this new technology will have to be cost-competitive, even if it can be rewritten may times.”4. Compared with traditional printing, the new tech ______.A. is more paper-savingB. attracts more usersC. uses a special printerD. produces longer-lasting characters.5. The under lined word “estimates” in Paragraph 7 means ______.A. reducesB. valuesC. checksD. controls6. Marsolan is more concerned about the new tech’s ______.A. effect on human lifeB. printing performanceC. typing problemsD. cost advantage7. What can be the best title of the text?A. The Rising Cost of InkB. The Importance of Reusing PaperC. New Ink-less Tech Prints with WaterD. The Magic of PaperCI came to Rio, Brazil to work one year ago. So what have I found here?●You need to learn PortugueseI started studying Portuguese about two years ago. I didn’t end up improving my Portuguese as much as I’d hoped before I came here. While Spanish and Portuguese are structurally quite similar, there are huge differences between the two. You can’t just magically understand Brazilians if you speak Spanish.●I didn’t need to bring heelsGoing out in cities like Buenos Aires is a big deal. You get dressed up, you do your hair, and you definitely wear heels--at least if you’re going out to dance.I had no idea how wrong I was. Yes, Rio is a city, but it’s a city on the beach. Of course, there are fancy clubs that probably expect everyone to show up in dress shoes(时装鞋), but most of the places I’ve been to are fine with sneakers(运动鞋), even for dancing.●Learning about pop music is a mustWhenever I go out and a pop song comes on, every single other person there sings along to all the words. I still haven’t understood if there are only 25 songs that get played in public or if people really do just have a fantastic memory for lyrics, but either way, I wish I’d spent a bit more time practicing Brazilian pop music so I wouldn’t look like such a lost foreigner.●Airplanes are a surprisingly sensitive subjectIn Brazil, the credit for modern flight goes to Alberto Santos Dumont. Brazilians say the Wright Brothers’use of a catapult(飞机弹射器) was technicallycheating and point to their man as the real pioneer of the plane. Therefore, be careful before bringing up the subject of planes in Brazil unless you’re ready for a lecture.8. What language do Brazilians speak?A. SpanishB. PortugueseC. EnglishD. French9. What can we infer about Brazilians?A. They are fond of dancing.B. They understand Spanish.C. They are informally dressed.D. They have a good memory.10. What topic should you avoid in Rio?A. The history of planes.B. Dressing styles.C. Pop music.D. Spanish.11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To tell us something about Portugal.B. To share her life in Rio as a foreigner.C. To give foreigners in Rio some suggestions.D. To encourage us to learn a foreign language.DA schoolgirl saved her father’s life by kicking him in the chest after he suffered a serious allergic(过敏的) reaction which stopped his heart.Izzy, nine, restarted father Colm’s heart by stamping(踩) on his chest after he fell down at home and stopped breathing.Izzy’s mother, Debbie, immediately called 999 but Izzy knew doctors would never arrive in time to save her father, so decided to use CPR.However, she quickly discovered her arms weren’t strong enough, so she stamped on her father’s chest instead.Debbie then took over with some more conventional(常见的) chest compressions(按压) until the ambulance arrived.Izzy, who has been given a bravery award by her school, said:“I just kicked him really hard. My mum taught me CPR but I knew I wasn’t strong enough to use hands. I was quite scared. The doctor said I might as well be a doctor or a nurse. My mum said that Dad was going to hospital with a big footprint on his chest.”“She’s a little star,”said Debbie. “I was really upset but Izzy just took over. I just can’t believe what she did. I really think all children should be taught first aid. Izzy did CPR then the doctor turned up. Colm had to have more treatment on the way to the hospital and we’ve got to see an expert.”Truck driver Colm, 35, suffered a mystery allergic reaction on Saturday and was taken to hospital, but was sent home only for it to happen again the next day. The second attack was so serious that his airway swelled(气道肿胀), preventing him from breathing, his blood pressure dropped suddenly, and his heart stopped for a moment.He has now made a full recovery from his suffering.12. Izzy kicked her father in the chest _______.A. to express her helplessnessB. to practice CPR on himC. to keep him awakeD. to restart his heart13. What’s the right order of the events?① Izzy kicked Colm.② Debbie called 999.③ Izzy learned CPR.④ Colm’s heart stoppedA.③①②④B.④②③①C.③④②①D.④③①②14. What does Paragraph 8 mainly talk about?A. What Colm suffered.B. Colm's present condition.C. What caused Colm’s allergy.D. Symptoms of Colm’s allergic reaction.15. Why does the author write the news?A. To describe a serious accident.B. To prove the importance of CPR.C. To report a 9-year-old girl’s brave act.D. To call people’s attention to allergic reaction.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)ATerra-cotta WarriorsAs the greatest archaeological findings of the 20th century, Terra-cotta Warriors has a really long history. In 246 BC, Qin Shi Huang, later the first Emperor of all China, had begun to prepare for his mausoleum which took 11 years to finish to defend him in the afterlife. There are over 7,000 pottery soldiers, horses, bronze chariots, and even weapons found in it now. Terra-cotta Warriors was listed by UNESCO in 1987 as one of the world cultural heritages and it has made Xi’an a famous city for tourists.Big Wild Goose PagodaThe Big Wild Goose Pagoda has a history of over 1,300 years and is a typical ancient Chinese building. It is located in the south of Xi’an City. Because Master Xuanzang stored his classics brought from India in the pagoda, it is also a holy place for Buddhists. As a National Key Cultural Relic Preserve, it won the title of an AAAA Tourist Attraction as well.Xi’an Ancient City WallAs one of the landmarks of Xi’an, Ancient City Wall still stretches round the old city today, dividing the city into the inner part and the outer part. Ancient City Wall was originally built during the old Tang Dynasty (618 — 907) and then enlarged by Zhu Yuanzhang, Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, thus forming the modern Xi’an City Wall. After the extension, the wall now stands 12 meters tall, 12-14 meters wide at the top and 15-18 meters thick at the bottom.1. What is The Big Wild Goose Pagoda most famous for?A.It has a history of over 1,300 years.B.It is a typical ancient Chinese building.C.It is a holy place for Buddhists.D.It won the title of an AAAA Tourist Attraction.2.When was the modern Xi’an City Wall formed?A.In the Tang Dynasty.B.In AD907.C.In modern times.D.In the Ming Dynasty.3. Who are the text written for?A. ArchaeologistsB. ScientistsC. TouristsD. ArtistsBOur math test started and I was sitting there and working away quite quickly.I looked around with 15 minutes left, because I had finished and was checking my test.I noticed something very special!Mr. Ward was staring right at one of the kids that seemed to be only halfway done with his test. Every test we took, there was always one guy scrambling at the last minute to finish his test. He would turn the pages and you saw blank spot after blank spot. Sometimes I even saw entire pages that were left blank. Mr. Ward did not take his eyes off this kid. It seemed strange to me. For the rest of thetest, Mr. Ward watched that kid as he struggled furiously(猛烈地), tapping papers back and forth and writing furiously and erasing even more furiously. He seemed to use his calculator a lot more than he needed.After the test was finished, Mr. Ward gave his end of the year speech, basically along the lines of good luck and good job. Then I saw him go to the kid he was watching and tell the kid to go into the hall.Mr. Ward walked out of the room and went into the hall silently. He closed the door and from that moment on, I heard about 4 minutes of Mr. Ward shouting at kid. He got his test torn up and a zero for the end of the year exam and also failed for the term and had to take summer school.That was the first and the last time that I had seen Mr. Ward ever yell like that.Obviously the guy had written his answers inside the sleeve of the calculator and every time he was “using his calculator”he was really looking at the formulas and other information he had written inside of the sleeve, which was all in vain because Mr. Ward spotted it a mile away.4. From this passage we know that _________.A.Mr. Ward disliked his studentsB.the student Mr. Ward was staring at wasn’t good at mathematics at allC.the student Mr. Ward was noticing was working at his test quicklyD.the author was trying to help the kid out5.The underlined word “lines” in paragraph 4 refers to _________.A.the math examsB.the summer schoolC.the math papersD.Mr. Ward’s speech6. The student used his calculator again and again because he _________.A.intended to attract Mr. Ward’s attentionB.needed to calculateC.wanted to glance at what he had hidden inside the sleeve of the calculatorD.felt too frightened to use it properly with Mr. Ward staring at him.7. We can infer from this passage that _________.A.Mr. Ward was working as a math teacher for a long time.B.the student was asking the author for help when caught cheating in the exam.C.Mr. Ward regretted not having let the student pass the examD.the students were taking their final-term math examCHealth food is a general term applied to all kinds of food that is considered morehealthy than the types of food sold in supermarkets. For example, whole grains, dried beans, and corn oil are health food. A narrower classification of health food is natural food. This term is used to distinguish between types of the same food. Raw honey is a natural sweetener, while refined sugar is not. Fresh fruit is a natural food, but canned fruit, with sugars and other additives(添加剂), is not. The most exact term of all andthe narrowest classification within health food is organic food, used to describe foodthat has been grown on a particular kind of farm. Fruits and vegetables that are grown in gardens, that are treated only with organic fertilizers, that are not sprayed with poisonous insecticides(杀虫剂), and that are not refined after harvest, are organic food. Meat, fish, dairy and poultry products from animals that are fed only on organically-grown feed and that are not injected with hormones are organic food.In choosing the type of food you eat, then, you have basically two choices: inorganic, processed food, or organic, unprocessed food. A wise decision should include study of the reason why processed food contains chemicals, some of which are proved to be poisonous and that vitamin content is greatly reduced in processed food.Bread is typically used by health food supporters as an example of a processed food. First, the seeds from which the grain is grown are treated with a chemicalwhich is extremely harmful. Later. The grain is sprayed with a number of very deadly insecticides. After the grain has been made into flour, it is made white with another chemical which is also poisonous. Next, a dough conditioner is added along with a softener. The conditioner and softener are poisons, and in fact, the softener has sickened and killed experimental animals. A very poisonous anti-fungal compound, is added to keep the bread from getting moldy.Other food from the supermarket would show a similar pattern of processing and preserving. You see, we buy our food on the basis of smell, color, and texture, instead of vitamin content, and manufacturers give us what we want, even if it is poisonous. The alternative? Eat health foods, preferably the organic variety.8.What is the passage mainly about?A.Health food.B.The processing of breadC.Processed foodD.Poisons9. What do all of the additives in bread have in common?A. They are all used to keep the bread from getting moldy.B. They are all poisonous.C. They are all organic.D. They have all killed laboratory animals.10. What happens to food when it is processed?A. The basic content remains the same.B. Vitamin is not available after processing.C. The vitamin content increases a bit.D. The vitamin content is greatly reduced.11. We normally buy food on the basis of _________.A. organic varietyB. beautyC. refined contentsD. color and textureDLondoners are great readers. They buy vast numbers of newspapers and magazines and of books --- especially paperbacks, which are still comparatively cheap inspite of ever-increasing rises in the costs of printing. They still continue to buy “proper” books, too, printed on good paper and bound (装订) between hard covers.There are many streets in London containing shops which specialize in book-selling. Perhaps the best known of these is Charring Cross Road in the very heart of London. Here bookshops of all sorts and sizes are to be found, from the celebrated one which boasts of being “the biggest bookshop in the world” to the tiny, dusty little places which seem to have been left over from Dickens’ time. Some of these shops stock, or will obtain, any kind of book, but many of them specialize in second-hand books, in art books, in foreign books, in books on philosophy, politics or any other of the countless subjects about which books may be written. One shop in this area specializes only in books about ballet!Although it may be the most convenient place for Londoners to buy books, Charring Cross Road is not the cheapest. For the really cheap second-hand books, the collector must venture off the beaten track, to Farringdon Road, for example, in the East Central district of London. Here there is nothing so impressive as bookshops. The booksellers come along each morning and pour out their sacks of books onto small hand carts. And the collectors, some professionals and some amateurs, have been waiting for them. In places like this they can still, occasionally, pick up for a few pence an old one that may be worth many pounds.12.“Londoners are great readers” means that _________.A. Londoners are great because they read a lot.B. There are a great number of readers in London.C. Londoners read a lot.D. Londoners are readers who read only great books.13. According to this passage, Charring Cross Road _________.A. is in the suburbs of LondonB. is the busiest street in LondonC. contains various kinds of shopsD. is famous for its bookshops14. In this passage, what does the underlined part “venture off the beaten track”mean?A. move away from a busy streetB. buy books in a most busy streetC. waste time looking for booksD. take a risk of losing one’s life15. On Farringdon Road, _________.A. you can find fine bookshops for the latest booksB. there are only small bookshops for the second-hand booksC. you can see book sellers selling books on hand-cartsD. the same books as the ones in the bookshops of Charring Cross Road are sold第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

A
Reading poems can be a lot of fun for kids. With these children's poetry books, children will gain a new appreciation for poetry and the spoken word.
Joyful Noise: Poems for Two Voices
The entertaining sounds of insects fill these poems by Paul Fleischman, making it a favorite with 12-15-year-olds. These poems were written to be read aloud by two readers.
Paul Fleischman received the John Newbery Medal for young people's literature for the book in 1989. Other recognition included: Boston Globe-Horn Book Award Honor Book, ALA Notable Children's Books list and so on.
Eric Beddow's artwork, full page, detailed pencil pictures, are vivid and effective complements to the poetry, which brings insects to life when read aloud by two voices.
You Read to Me, I'll Read to You: Very Short Stories to Read Together Poet Mary Ann Hoberman is the author of the picture book, which includes the joyful pictures of Michael Emberley. The book contains very short story poems for two people to read aloud, alternately and together. Each of the 12 stories for 6-11-year-olds features rhythm, rhyme, and repetition, as well as humor and attention on the joys of reading.
The book is one of a series of story poems. All the books are designed to be read aloud by two people, as if, says Hoberman, it's“a little play for two voices.” The two people can be an adult and a child or two children.
Big Talk: Poems for Four Voices
Poems for four voices are much more challenging to present than poems for two voices, but middle school students tend to enjoy the challenge. The three-story poems in it will appeal to middle schoolers. The author, Paul Fleischman, provides a clear
description of how to use the book. The poems are color-coded to make them easier for the four readers to keep track of their parts.
I Am Phoenix: Poems for Two Voices
The fifteen poems for two voices in the book are all about birds. Ken Nutt's soft pencil pictures complement the poems by Paul Fleischman. The words of each poem are in two columns, each to be read by one person, sometimes individually, sometimes together.

The morning had been a disaster.My tooth was aching, and I'd been in an argument with a friend.Her words still hurt: "The trouble with you is that you won't put yourself in my place.Can't you see things from my point of view?" I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth.I'd thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable.I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately.Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.
"If you come by right now," the receptionist said, "the dentist will fit you in."
I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car.But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist.What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn't he as busy as the others?。
