2018高考英语模拟卷4第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节(共15题：每小题2分，满分30分)AThe freezing Northeast hasn’t been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter,so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota,Florida,my bags were packed before you couldsay“sunshine”.I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C(维生素C),thinking of beaches and orange trees.When we touched down to blue skies and warm air,I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness.Swimming pools,wine tasting,and pink sunsets(at normal evening hours,not 4 in the afternoon)filled the weekend,but the best part―particularly to my taste,dulled by months of cold-weather root vegetables―was a 7 a.m.adventure to the Sarasota farmers’ market that proved to be more than worth the early wake-up call.The market,which was founded in 1979,sets up its tents every Saturday from 7 a.m.to 1p.m.,rain or shine,along North Lemon and State streets.Baskets of perfect red strawberries;the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck;and most of all,thetomatoes:amazing,large,soft and round red tomatoes.Disappointed by many a broken,vine-ripened(蔓上成熟的)promise,I’ve refused to buy winter tomatoes for years.No matter how attractive they look in the store,once I get them home they’re unfailingly dry,hard,and tasteless.But I homed in,with uncertainty,on one particular table at the Brown’s Grove Farm’s stand,full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist.These were the real deal―and at that moment,I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn’t be experiencing again for months.Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight,my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown’s Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty,a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton,where―luckily for me―I was planning to have dinner that very night.Without even seeing the menu,I knew I’d be ordering every tomato on it.1.What did the author think of her winter life in New York?A. Exciting.B. Boring.C. Relaxing.D. Annoying.2.What made the author’s getting up early worthwhile?A. Having a swim.B. Breathing in fresh air.C. Walking in the morning sun.D. Visiting a local farmers’ market.3.What can we learn about tomatoes sold in New York in winter?A. They are soft.B. They look nice.C. They taste great.D. They are juicy.4.What was the author going to do that evening?A. Go to a farm.B. Check into a hotel.C. Eat in a restaurant.D. Buy fresh vegetables.BWhen we were very small, we realized that having friends was important. Some of us even had imaginary(想象中的)friends. The need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. Friends played a big part in forming our personalities(性格). As adults，it is still important for us to have friends.True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when we’re foolish. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are feeling down. They are people we aren’t afraid of telling our secret wishes to or what is really on our minds.Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends offer acceptance and emotional(情感的)support. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or giving us a lift when we need one. Friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on.Friends also help us reduce stress. Not only do they listen to us when we feel stressed, but they also discuss what is stressing us. Sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home. For a short time, we can lose ourselves in a pleasant activity and perhaps laugh and breathe more easily.5.What is the best title for the passage?A. How to Reduce StressB. How to Make New FriendsC. The Importance of FriendsD. The Qualities of Good Friends6.The underlined word “stimulate” in Paragraph 2 probably means________.A. educateB. encourageC. surpriseD. dislike7.We can learn from the third paragraph that friends always________.A. laugh at us when we’re foolishB. tell us other people’s secretsC. share our sadness and interestsD. support us when we need help8.We can learn from the passage that________.A. people should make friends anytimeB. friends are people who allow you to cryC. a friend helps you in many waysD. good friends are always difficult to meetCThe Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named"DriveLAB"in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are．Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health andwell-being among older people，leading to them becoming more isolated（隔绝）and inactive．Led by Professor Phil Blythe，the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life．These include custom-made navigation（导航）tools，night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations．Phil Blythe explains："For many older people，particularly those livingalone or in the country，driving is important for preserving their independence，giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others．""But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills．The result is that people stop driving before they really need to．"Dr Amy Guo，the leading researcher on the older driver study，explains，"The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems．"For example，most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly，we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined．We're looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that．"We hope that our work will help with technological solutions（解决方案）to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel．"9.What is the purpose of the Drivel AB？______A. To explore newmeans of transport．B. To design new types of cars．C. To find out older driver′s problems．D. To teach people traffic rules．10.Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe？______A. It keeps them independent．B. It helps them save time．C. It builds up their strength．D. It cures their mental illnesses．11.What do researchers hope to do for older drivers？______A. Improve their driving skills．B. Develop driver-assist technologles．C. Provide tips on repairing their cars．D. Organize regular physical checkups．12.What is the best title for the text？______A. A new Model Electric CarB. A Solution to Traffic ProblemC. Driving Service for eldersD. Keeping Older Drivers on the Road．DOctopuses (章鱼）are sea animals famous for their rounded bodies, bulging eyes, and eight long arms. They live in all the worldˈs oceans but there are especially more octopuses in warm, tropical (热带的）waters. Octopuses, like their cousin, the squid (乌贼）,are often considered “monsters of the deep”, though some species, or types, occupy relatively shallow waters.Mos t octopuses stay along the oceanˈs floor, although some species are pelagic, which means they live near the waterˈs surface. Other octopus species live in deep, dark waters, rising from below at dawn and dusk to search for food. Crabs and shrimps rank among their favorite foods, though some can attack larger prey（猎物）, like sharks. Octopuses typically drop down on their prey from above and, using powerful suctions that line their arms, pull the animals into their mouths. The octopus performs its famous backward swim by blowing up water through a muscular tube on the body called a siphon. Octopuses also crawl (爬）along the ocean’s floor,putting their arms into small openings to search for food. Seals, whales, and large fish prey on octopuses.If threatened, octopuses shoot an inky liquid that darkens the water, confusing the other animals. The octopus can also change to gray, brown, pink, blue, or- green to mix with its surroundings. Octopuses may also change color as a way to communicate with other octopuses. Octopuses are solitary creatures that live alone in dens (巢穴）built from rocks, which the octopus moves into place using its powerful arms. Octopuses sometimes even fashion a rock "door” for their dens that pull closed when the octopus is safely inside.13.In which place can we find more Octopuses?A. The ocean near Hainan.B. The river near Canada.C. The Arctic Ocean.D. The South Pole.14.What is a way for Octopuses to communicate with each other?A. Using special signals.B. Making special sounds.C. Living together in a group.D. Changing their own colors.15.What do we know about Octopuses?A.They just stay in deep ocean.B. They eat food by using their teeth.C. They donˈt like hunting large animals.D. They shoot an inky liquid to avoid dangers.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年高考英语(课标版)仿真模拟卷(四)含答案

2018高考仿真卷·英语(四)第一部分　听力(共两节,满分30分)(略)第二部分　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A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

ADon’t have plenty of time for reading?If you are interested in non-fiction books,here are good choices for you.A Room of One’s OwnThis essay by English writer Virginia Woolf is based on her several lectures given to two women’s colleges at Cambridge University in 1928.In it,Woolf describes that it’s circumstance not talent alone that allows men to be more successful at writing.Women,in other words,spend so much time cooking,cleaning,and tending to their children that they have no time left for art.To write well,therefore,a woman must have “a room of her own”.While on its surface,this essay appears to be only about writing,it is actually about wealth and class,freedom and imprisonment,and the power struggle between sexes.The Art of WarWritten by ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Zi,The Art of War is widely considered to be one of the best books about military strategy in human history.Consisting of 13 chapters,each dealing with a separate aspect about how to fight a war,the book has been translated into many languages and has thousands of editions.For centuries,it has been used to train military leaders for its detailed study of military strategy and effective leadership.Letter to My DaughterThis book of essays and poems by Maya Angelou,a respectable American poet,is written for “the daughter she never had” — the millions of women,both young and old,who she considers to be her “family”.From the viewpoint of a caring,older relative,this book contains lessons selected from her own life experiences,including the birth of her only child,a son,as well as the development and loss of friendship.A Brief History of TimeIf you’re short on time,then why not read about,well,the creation of time?This book,first published in 1998 from brilliant scientist and mathematician Stephen Hawking,explores mind-bending questions about the creation of the universe,including if and when it will end,and if so,how.Despite its heavy subject matter,Hawking addresses these questions in a way that’s easy to understand,even for those who know little about physics.21.What can we learn about the four books?A.A Brief History of Time mainly focuses on the matter of the earth.B.Letter to My Daughter is actually a common family letter.C.The Art of War gives definition of philosophy.D.A Room of One’s Own is more than about writing.22.What can be inferred from the passage?A.As a physicist,Hawking is equally famous for writing.B.Maya devotes herself to fighting for women’s rights.C.The book by Sun Zi is helpful in policy-making.D.Woolf looks down upon men in writing.23.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To make comparisons between the four books.B.To recommend the four books to readers.C.To make comments on the four books.D.To promote sales of the four books.BEnjoying a musical performance no longer requires a costly ticket or a trip to a theater.These days,musicians are performing in private homes,at haircutting shops,at airports...even on ferry boats.Musicians like house concerts.At music clubs,they often have to perform over loud conversation or deal with people who have had too much alcohol.People at house concerts are more focused on listening to the music.Just a few hours before the Bombadils started singing at the O’ Hair Salon,Lindsay was cutting hair and Tamera was doing facials.Then,they moved chairs and microphones to create a small performance space.The Bombadils made music in the front part of the hair salon,near the hairdryers and make-up tables.“This is our first show at a hair salon,” Sarah Frank of the Bombadils told concertgoers at last week’s performance.Frank said she and band members,Luke Fraser and Kaitlyn Raitz had a great time “interacting” with the audience.Concerts in people’s homes,or small businesses such as O’ Hair’s,are becoming more popular,musicians say.“There is a more relaxed atmosphere,” said Domenic Cicala,a musician who opened up his O’ Hair Salon to concerts.“People really get to know the artists.”At house concerts,people get time before and after concerts to meet the performers.Often,the hosts or guests will provide food and drink.“People really like listening to music in the living room of a friend,” said Matt Hart,with Aubrey Zoli making up the Local Strangers,a folk-rock group based in Seattle.At many such concerts,the musicians do not need microphones.Yet,every word of their songs can be heard.24.Why do musicians like house concerts?A.Because private homes are easier to get to.B.Because people pay more attention to their music.C.Because they can do other things while performing.D.Because they don’t have to bring their microphones.25.What impressed Sarah Frank most at her last week’s performance?A.The small performance space.B.Her first show at a hair salon.C.Their interaction with the audience.D.The more relaxed atmosphere.26.How many music groups are mentioned in the text?A.One.B.Two.C.Three.D.Four.27.What may be the best title for the text?A.Musicians Struggle to Make a LivingB.People Really Get to Know the ArtistsC.Musicians Find New Places to PerformD.Concertgoers Won’t Go to Music ClubsC“Hungary?” I looked at my school headmaster in confusion.“I never mentioned wanting to go to Hungary.” And with that,my adventure started.My name is Jonathan Diamond and I just finished an amazing school exchange year in Hungary.Going on an exchange had always been my dream.When my high school offered an all-year program,I jumped at the opportunity.It would pay for almost everything and all I had to do was buy a plane ticket.I knew where I wanted to go:Spain,the country of dancers wearing flowing red dresses.So when I heard that I was going to Hungary,I was pretty shocked.But I decided to make the best of it,since it was,after all,a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.Before I knew it,I was on the airplane,leaving for Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport,Hungary.I had difficult times when I almost gave up.Hungarian is the hardest language on the planet.Cultural differences occasionally embarrassed both my peers and me.I had to give up eating carrots,my beautiful favorite,for Hungarians think carrots are rubbish in their country.The change in the landscape was amazing,looking nothing like skyscrapers,bullet trains,cars,and people in tiny houses that I had been accustomedto.Gradually,I fell in love with the relaxing lifestyle,the warm-hearted people,and getting home at 2:30 p.m.at the latest from school.And I was sad to leave on my very last day.Having the host family who took me as one of their own members was the best thing I’ve ever experienced.From my little sisters,I learned how to embrace life to its fullest.From my brothers I learned that it’s OK for a boy to run around the house.From my host parents I learned to stay positive,to smile and that when you pick the right people and take their hands,suddenly,you become friends.28.How did Jonathan feel when he was told to go to Hungary?A.Excited and satisfied.B.Confused and shocked.C.Amazed and embarrassed.D.Delighted and interested.29.Why did Jonathan still decide to go to Hungary instead of Spain?A.He didn’t like Spain.B.He wanted to learn Hungarian.C.It was a rare chance.D.Going to Hungary was much cheaper.30.What can we learn about Jonathan during his stay in Hungary?A.He fell in love with eating carrots.B.He couldn’t wait to leave.C.He was surprised by the landscape.D.He quickly got used to the life there.31.According to Jonathan,the host family .A.changed him completelyB.taught him how to dance wellC.treated him as equally as a studentD.showed him the good things of lifeDSome pigs tend to be optimistic while others are pessimistic,according to a new research that is meaningful to animal welfare.The study,published in the journal Biology Letters,is the first to show that mood and personality interact in an animal,influencing judgment.Asher,a researcher at the University of Newcastle’s Institute of Neuroscience,and her team housed groups of pigs in two types of environment.One reflected standard commercial conditions and the other was cushier with more space and plenty of soft,deep straw.After the pigs got accustomed to these new homes over a few weeks,the researchers picked 18 pigs from each type to train and test their judgment.“To do this,we trained each pig.In one corner of a training room there would be a bowl with chocolate sweets—pigs love them—and at theopposite side of the room there would be a bowl containing coffee beans,which pigs find bitter-tasting,” a researcher said.Over a number of training trials,pigs learned to go to the bowl reliably when it was in the corner where they had figured out to expect chocolate sweets.On the contrary,they quickly learned to avoid the bowl when it was in the corner where they would expect to find the coffee beans.The researchers next placed an unfamiliar bowl in different locations,to see how the pigs would react.Some gaily dashed to the bowl no matter what was inside,showing optimism that it would contain their favorite sweets.Others,however,behaved as though they expected it to contain coffee beans,displaying pessimism.The findings suggest that a one-size-fits-all answer to animal welfare issues does not exist.Even if pigs are just equal to bacon or other meat for some people,there is still cause for concern.Studies have suggested that how an animal is treated during its lifetime can directly affect meat quality and taste.32.What was the study trying to figure out?A.How to make pigs happier.B.The similarities between humans and pigs.C.How living environment affected pigs’ mood.D.How pigs’ mood and personality affected their judgment.33.What does the underlined word “cushier” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Simple.B.More comfortable.C.Unpractical.D.Less free.34.Which bowl can test whether a pig is optimistic or pessimistic?A.The bowl with chocolate sweets.B.The bowl containing coffee beans.C.The bowl full of both sweets and beans.D.The bowl unfamiliar to two types of pigs.35.What do the findings of the new research imply?A.People should treat pigs equally.B.People’s health relies on meat quality.C.People should meet pigs’ various needs.D.People’s attitude toward pigs is totally wrong.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高考英语模拟卷4第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节(共15题：每小题2分，满分30分)AThe freezing Northeast hasn’t been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter,so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota,Florida,my bags were packed before you couldsay“sunshine”.I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C(维生素C),thinking of beaches and orange trees.When we touched down to blue skies and warm air,I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness.Swimming pools,wine tasting,and pink sunsets(at normal evening hours,not 4 in the afternoon)filled the weekend,but the best part―particularly to my taste,dulled by months of cold-weather root vegetables―was a 7 a.m.adventure to the Sarasota farmers’ market that proved to be more than worth the early wake-up call.The market,which was founded in 1979,sets up its tents every Saturday from 7 a.m.to 1p.m.,rain or shine,along North Lemon and State streets.Baskets of perfect red strawberries;the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck;and most of all,thetomatoes:amazing,large,soft and round red tomatoes.Disappointed by many a broken,vine-ripened(蔓上成熟的)promise,I’ve refused to buy winter tomatoes for years.No matter how attractive they look in the store,once I get them home they’re unfailingly dry,hard,and tasteless.But I homed in,with uncertainty,on one particular table at the Brown’s Grove Farm’s stand,full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist.These were the real deal―and at that moment,I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn’t be experiencing again for months.Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight,my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown’s Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty,a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton,where―luckily for me―I was planning to have dinner that very night.Without even seeing the menu,I knew I’d be ordering every tomato on it.1.What did the author think of her winter life in New York?A. Exciting.B. Boring.C. Relaxing.D. Annoying.2.What made the author’s getting up early worthwhile?A. Having a swim.B. Breathing in fresh air.C. Walking in the morning sun.D. Visiting a local farmers’ market.3.What can we learn about tomatoes sold in New York in winter?A. They are soft.B. They look nice.C. They taste great.D. They are juicy.4.What was the author going to do that evening?A. Go to a farm.B. Check into a hotel.C. Eat in a restaurant.D. Buy fresh vegetables.BWhen we were very small, we realized that having friends was important. Some of us even had imaginary(想象中的)friends. The need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. Friends played a big part in forming our personalities(性格). As adults，it is still important for us to have friends.True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when we’re foolish. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are feeling down. They are people we aren’t afraid of telling our secret wishes to or what is really on our minds.Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends offer acceptance and emotional(情感的)support. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or giving us a lift when we need one. Friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on.Friends also help us reduce stress. Not only do they listen to us when we feel stressed, but they also discuss what is stressing us. Sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home. For a short time, we can lose ourselves in a pleasant activity and perhaps laugh and breathe more easily.5.What is the best title for the passage?A. How to Reduce StressB. How to Make New FriendsC. The Importance of FriendsD. The Qualities of Good Friends6.The underlined word “stimulate” in Paragraph 2 probably means________.A. educateB. encourageC. surpriseD. dislike7.We can learn from the third paragraph that friends always________.A. laugh at us when we’re foolishB. tell us other people’s secretsC. share our sadness and interestsD. support us when we need help8.We can learn from the passage that________.A. people should make friends anytimeB. friends are people who allow you to cryC. a friend helps you in many waysD. good friends are always difficult to meetCThe Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named"DriveLAB"in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are．Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health andwell-being among older people，leading to them becoming more isolated（隔绝）and inactive．Led by Professor Phil Blythe，the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life．These include custom-made navigation（导航）tools，night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations．Phil Blythe explains："For many older people，particularly those livingalone or in the country，driving is important for preserving their independence，giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others．""But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills．The result is that people stop driving before they really need to．"Dr Amy Guo，the leading researcher on the older driver study，explains，"The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems．"For example，most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly，we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined．We're looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that．"We hope that our work will help with technological solutions（解决方案）to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel．"9.What is the purpose of the Drivel AB？______A. To explore newmeans of transport．B. To design new types of cars．C. To find out older driver′s problems．D. To teach people traffic rules．10.Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe？______A. It keeps them independent．B. It helps them save time．C. It builds up their strength．D. It cures their mental illnesses．11.What do researchers hope to do for older drivers？______A. Improve their driving skills．B. Develop driver-assist technologles．C. Provide tips on repairing their cars．D. Organize regular physical checkups．12.What is the best title for the text？______A. A new Model Electric CarB. A Solution to Traffic ProblemC. Driving Service for eldersD. Keeping Older Drivers on the Road．DOctopuses (章鱼）are sea animals famous for their rounded bodies, bulging eyes, and eight long arms. They live in all the worldˈs oceans but there are especially more octopuses in warm, tropical (热带的）waters. Octopuses, like their cousin, the squid (乌贼）,are often considered “monsters of the deep”, though some species, or types, occupy relatively shallow waters.Most octopuses stay along the oceanˈs floor, although some species are pelagic, which means they live near the waterˈs surface. Other octopus species live in deep, dark waters, rising from below at dawn and dusk to search for food. Crabs and shrimps rank among their favorite foods, though some can attack larger prey（猎物）, like sharks. Octopuses typically drop down on their prey from above and, using powerful suctions that line their arms, pull the animals into their mouths. The octopus performs its famous backward swim by blowing up water through a muscular tube on the body called a siphon. Octopuses also crawl (爬）along the ocean’s floor,putting their arms into small openings to search for food. Seals, whales, and large fish prey on octopuses.If threatened, octopuses shoot an inky liquid that darkens the water, confusing the other animals. The octopus can also change to gray, brown, pink, blue, or- green to mix with its surroundings. Octopuses may also change color as a way to communicate with other octopuses. Octopuses are solitary creatures that live alone in dens (巢穴）built from rocks, which the octopus moves into place using its powerful arms. Octopuses sometimes even fashion a rock "door” for their dens that pull closed when the octopus is safely inside.13.In which place can we find more Octopuses?A. The ocean near Hainan.B. The river near Canada.C. The Arctic Ocean.D. The South Pole.14.What is a way for Octopuses to communicate with each other?A. Using special signals.B. Making special sounds.C. Living together in a group.D. Changing their own colors.15.What do we know about Octopuses?A.They just stay in deep ocean.B. They eat food by using their teeth.C. They donˈt like hunting large animals.D. They shoot an inky liquid to avoid dangers.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。

I decided to bake a delicious pie and some peanut butter cookies to share with him,and chat with him some more.In the meantime,I want to ask him if he would like me to visit from time to time.I’m sure he’ll love the company and the human interaction.So I wanted to share my story,because not only did I make his day,but also he made mine!

Or scanning a QR code (二维码) to buy goods from a newspaper ad.By making use of these new technologies, China mobile shopping is a bit ahead of the United States. China is still the world's largest smart phone market, even though growth is slow. It accounts for about 30 percent of the global smart phone market, and Chinese smart phone users are expected to jump from 526.8 million to 640 million in 2018, according to eMarketer. And its shoppers are using their instruments to rush to purchase a wide range of goods and services.Nearly half of all China's e-commerce sales, totaling $505.7 billion, are made with mobile devices, versus roughly one-quarter in the US, according to eMarketer. By 2019, China's mobile sales will account for 71 percent of those sales.“We don't see mobile buying staying unchangeable for the next five years,” said Monica Pearl, eMarketer's director of forecasting. “It'll increase because consumer behavior has changed.” Featurerich(功能多样的), cheap smart phones are also helping fuel the boom, she added.“China is, after all, a mobile first market,” explains Brian Buchwald, CEO of consumer intelligence firm Bomoda. So it has been able to go beyond other markets, which mainly used PCs for purchases.Meanwhile, the Chinese government has allowed a free-flowing retail and payments marketplace. “There are no restraints(约束),” said Michael Zakkour, vice president of China / Asia Pacific practice at Tompkins International.And that's good news for WeChat, a messaging app that's only five years old and is offered by the Internet giant Tencent. The app now has 650 million users. And a good mass of them are using the app for mobile shopping. The result is that WeChatpayments, along with Alibaba's Alipay, lead the market. Because retailers can easily set up shops inside WeChat, users can plan family vacations, order a taxi or even buy clothes without going anywhere else.China is up to three years ahead of the US in mobile shopping, said Buchwald. “And it's moving faster than any other area of the economy. It's the future.”1.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A.China has more goods than the United States.B.America's new technologies are as good as China.C.China's smart phone market is larger than that of the United States.D.American smart phone users will be ahead of Chinese in 2018.2.According to Monica Pearl, why is mobile shopping increasing in China?A.Chinese are fond of using these new technologies.B.Nearly half of all China's ecommerce sales are made with m obile devices.C.Smart phones are cheaper than any other country in the world.D.The behavior of customers has changed.3.Which best describes the Buchwald's attitude toward Chinese mobile shopping?A.Doubtful.B.Optimistic.C.Cautious.D.Worried.4、H illary Clinton promised On October 30, 2016 that she would not be “knocked off course” in the election's final days, as she sought to push past a new FBI email inquiry that delivered a late jolt(震动) to her race against Republican Donald Trump.“I'm not stopping now, we're just getting warmed up,” Clinton declared during a packed rally (集会)with supporters in Florida. “We're not going to be distracted, no matter what our opponents throw at us.”Trump campaigned in Las Vegas at a club owned by billionaire GOP major donor Sheldon Adelson and accused the Justice Department, without offering evidence, oftrying to protect Clinton following the FBI's discovery of new emails that could be related to its investigation into Clinton's use of a private email server.“Hillary has nobody but herself to blame for her mounting legal problems,” Trump said during a rally.Meanwhile, federal investigators secured a warrant (权证)to examine the newly discovered emails related to Hillary Clinton's private server, media reported on Sunday, as a prominent Democrat accused FBI Director James Comey of breaking the law by trying to influence the election.The warrant will allow the FBI to examine the emails to see if they are relevant to its investigation into the private email server used for government work by Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee, while she was secretary of state from 2009 to 2013.Comey came under heavy pressure from Democrats on Sunday to quickly provide details of the emails, as Clinton allies worried the controversy could extend beyond the Nov 8 election and cast a shadow over a Clinton transition if she wins the White House.Comey's disclosure of the email discovery in a letter to Congress on Friday plunged(使陷入) the final days of the White House race between Clinton and Republican Donald Trump into a state of confusion and disorder.Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid sent a letter to Comey on Sunday suggesting he violated the Hatch Act, which bans the use of a federal government position to influence an election.1.What is James Comey?A.Senate Democratic Leader.B.A prominent Democrat.C.FBI Director.D.Head of the Justice Department.2.What has FBI made a discovery of?A.Clinton's private letters written to a foreign country.B.Clinton's accepting a lot of money from a businessman.C.Clinton's bad health conditions that may affect her administration.D.Clinton's new emails through the use of a private email server.3.The possible meaning of the underlined word “ controversy ” in Para. 7 is ________.A.a successful ending of a struggle or contestB.a lot of argument about somethingC.the ability and strength to do active physical thingsD.something new and difficult which requires great effort and determination4.The best title for the news report can be “________” .A.Clinton promises to stay course, Trump boostedB.Trump accuses the Justice Department of trying to protect ClintonC.Trump says Hillary should blame for her mounting legal problemsD.White House race between Clinton and Republican Donald Trump二、七选五5、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。

【原创精品】2018年高考英语冲刺60天精品模拟卷（七）第1卷一、阅读理解1、Are you a true “cheapskate” (吝啬鬼)? You are if you do this when traveling: You always use a carry-on to avoid the checked-bag fee. You pack a lunch from home so you don’t pay for airline meals. True “cheapskates” also fly on the three cheapest days of the week (Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays).◇ For U. S. domestic travel, everyone wants to fly Fridays and Sundays and those are usually the most expensive days to fly.﹡ The fares for Los Angeles-to-New York flights in September:• Friday & Sunday: $ 365• Tuesday & Wednesday: $ 288﹡ The fares for Houston-to-New York flights in September:• Friday & Sunday: $ 302• Tuesday & Wednesday: $ 226◇ For tr ansatlantic flights, the difference can be more startling and the rules a little looser.﹡ Boston-to-Dublin fares from United Airlines:• Friday & Sunday: $ 581• Tuesday & Wednesday: $ 457﹡ The fares for Washington-to-London flights in a week:• Friday & Sunday: $ 896• Tuesday & Wednesday: $ 732﹡It’s time for some Saturday fares now.

Is the rule on the “cheapest three days to fly” etched in stone? No. It is usually true but not always. So you should be flexible. After all it can save much money. And isn’t that what being a “cheapskate” is all about?1.According to Para. 1, what does a true “cheapskate” really do?A.Choose a luxury hotel to live in.B.Save money in every way during the trip.C.Fly on Fridays when traveling.D.Have their lunch on the plane.2.How much should you pay for a flight to New York from Houston on Tuesday?A.$ 226.B.$ 288.C.$ 302.D.$ 365.3.What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A.To recommend some cheap trips.B.To call on us to fly on Sundays.C.To introduce another topic.D.To explain a special case.2、 54-year-old Abdul has a special job. He has been working as a living statue (活体雕像) for over three decades, standing perfectly still for six hours a day and resisting people’s attempts to make him move or smile, anything that proves he is a living person.Abdul, known as “India’s Statue Man”, has been performing his daily routine ever since 1985, soon after getting a job as a security guard. His boss had recently traveled to the UK, where he was so impressed by the statue-like members of the Royal Guard outside Buckingham Palace that he wanted to do something similar back home. So he had his guards receive three months of training, where they would sit perfectly still for around four hours. They weren’t allowed to talk or smile, eat, drink, oreven shoo away a fly if it sat on their faces. In the end, Abdul proved the best of the group, so he got the strange job.Abdul isn’t the only person in the world acting as a living statue, but what makes him special is the fact that he can do it for as long as six hours without even blinking his eyes. Once, a $ 155 prize was put up for anyone who can make him move a muscle. But try as they might, no one has ever succeeded. Actually, Abdul tries to move about as much as he can in his spare time, and only eats healthy home-cooked food, to keep his body in shape. But he claims yoga has been the biggest help. In the 32 years, Abdul has become a celebrity in India and other Asian countries. Many Bollywood celebrities have come to witness this living statue and try to finally make him move, but none have succeeded.Abdul earns about 10,000 rupees ($ 156) a month, which is enough to support his family, but definitely not enough to encourage his children to follow in his footsteps. It’s just too stressful and taxing on the body. “Despite all the hardship and health problems, I love my job and I am thankful to people for the love and respect they have showered on me, , , he says. “When the time comes, I want to die playinga statue. ”1.What is Abdul’s daily routine?A.Performing as a living statue.B.Proving to be a living person.C.Smiling at his customers.D.Keeping his body in shape.2.Why could Abdul get the strange job given by his boss?A.He had his special ambition.B.He was most familiar with the job.C.He stood out among the group.D.He knew the boss more than others.3.What does Abdul do in his spare time?A.He eats a lot of snacks.B.He practices yoga for 12 hours a day.C.He cooks for his family.D.He always moves a lot.4.How does Abdul feel about his job according to the text?A.It’s overpaid.B.It’s satisfying.C.It’s boring.D.It’s instructive.3、 People usually visit cafes to ease themselves of their tiredness and keep themselves from falling asleep, but Mr. Healing, a popular cafe chain in South Korea actually does the opposite. Customers can come in, order a drink, lie down a comfortable massage chair, and take a nap.Many Koreans suffer from a lack of sleep as a result of overworking, so any opportunity to relax and even take a nap is greatly appreciated. Mr. Healing is the perfect place to go when you’re on a short work or school break and you need to catch up on sleep. The cafe offers massage periods in various modes, depending on how much time you have and how you choose to spend it.The 20-minute session is priced at $ 3.5, the 30-minute massage costs $ 7, and the 50-minute session is $ 9, all of which also include a drink. Once you make your choice, you are taken to the “healing center”. You are asked to take off your shoes as well as any jewelry that might damage the chairs, after which you can choose a massage mode, from “stretch” or “sleep”.You can start with stretch for a few minutes, and then switch to sleep if you want to take a short nap. After it comes to an end, you are taken back to the cafe area to enjoy a coffee or one of the many other refreshing drinks on the menu.Mr. Healing cafes are so popular in Korea that customers are advised to make reservations in advance to be sure that a massage chair is available. “I have to sit on a chair and stare at a computer monitor all day due to my job, the healing room was truly effective to relieve tiredness and stress from weekdays,” said Park Hye-sun, a 24-year-old officer.Some have described Mr. Healing and other similar relaxation cafes in South Korea as simple fashions, but others see them as a sustainable business model, because they offer a service that Koreans really need.1.Why do customers come to Mr. Healing?A.To drink specialty coffee.B.To have themselves checked.C.To have a relaxation.D.To sleep before work.2.What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?A.The price of the service.B.The process of the service.C.The tips for customers.D.The choices for customers.3.What does the underlined word “it” i n Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Your choice.B.A sound sleep.C.The coffee.D.The massage.4.What is Park’s attitude towards Mr. Healing?A.Positive.B.Critical.C.Neutral.D.Negative.4、 A cheetah (猎豹) can run 70 miles per hour. Blobfish (水滴鱼) don’t have any bones. These are facts I’ve learned from my 5-year-old son after he watched some networks, shows. He is greatly interested in scientific facts, so I was surprised the other day when I mentioned climate change.After a few more questions, I discovered that he’s never heard any of his favorite science shows mention climate change. It is strange, because climate change is one of the most important environmental issues of our time. My son can tell youeverything you ever wanted to know about red pandas, except for the fact that their existence is being threatened by the changing climate.I reached out to PBS Kids, Nickelodeon, and Disney Junior to see if there was any truth to his claim. I was told that except an episode (一段情节) of Disney Junior’s Doc Mc Stuffins called The Big Storm, none of the three networks’ shows has ever discussed the causes of climate change on our planet. Maybe you’re wondering if the reason is that kids’ science shows don’t ever tackle troubling environmental issues.Why aren’t these networks introducing kids to such an important issue? According to Maria, spokeswoman for PBS Kids, it’s because the network feels that focusing on foundational science concepts is the most age-appropriate way to serve our audience. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather my kid learn a little about the melting polar ice caps than other things.And kids can handle climate change. Even young children are able to understand the basic idea. More importantly, they’re able to begin taking action to sl ow down global warming. My guess is that the networks are afraid that promoting the science on a politically controversial (争议性的) issue will lead them to lose viewers or advertisers. But if that’s true, and they’re choosing their bottom line over the educa tion of America’s children, that’s a real shame. Kids need to learn about the issue that threatens their planet if they’re ever going to feel inspired to save it.1.Why did the author feel surprised at her son?A.He has known many scientific facts.B.He ha s watched a lot of network’s shows.C.He didn’t care about global warming.D.He knew nothing about climate change.2.The author watched the three networks’ shows in order to_____.A.get to know her son’s preferenceB.find the reason of her son’s ignoranceC.find the causes of climate changeD.help her son know environmental issues3.What does the author think his son should do?A.Learn something about environmental issues.B.Help to slow down global warming.C.Discuss important issues with others.D.Learn to handle climate change.4.What is the purpose of the author’s writing this text?A.To advice kids not to watch networks’ shows.B.To introduce some politically controversial issues.C.To express his attitude towards some networks.D.To call on all America ns to care about kids’ education.二、七选五5、根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。

【原创精品】2018年高考英语冲刺60天精品模拟卷（三）第1卷一、阅读理解1、 When firefighters got to the six-story brick building on East 191st Street in Bronx early Saturday, they saw flames shooting from a top-floor window. Strange, sharp popping(爆音) sounds filled the air, a fire lieutenant said later. As a sixth-floor apartment turned into an inferno(火海), a woman who lived there ran downstairs with a small child. Neighbours said she told them her husband was still upstairs trying to get their two other children.Vale Dorsey, 66, who lives on the fifth floor, said he was awakened by his wife. An explosion above had showered shattered glass from a sixth-floor window. As they rushed downstairs, they were joined by other people, who were asking one another in Spanish and English what was happening.As the people fled, firefighters hurried up the stairs. When they reached the sixth floor, the fire lieutenant, William Kearns, Firefighter Christopher O'Brien and others met a wall of flames coming from the kitchen just inside the door of the burning apartment. Firefighter Rodney Littlejohn used a fire extinguisher to try to keep the fire from spreading, and the heat from the kitchen partly melted his plastics eye shield.While Firefighter Littlejohn sprayed, Firefighter O'Brien bent under the flames. There about 10 feet into the apartment, he found the father of the three children lying in a hallway.Firefighters pulled him from the burning apartment. Lieutenant Kearns and a firefighter from Rescue 3 started going through the apartment room by room, feeling their way through the smoke. In a bedroom, the firefighter from Rescue 3 found a 3-year-old in a bed shaped like a race car. Moments later, Lieutenant Kearns found a 1-year-old in a crib.The two children and their father were brought to hospital, fire officials said, where the man was listed in critical condition and the children were in critical but stable condition.On Saturday the apartment where the fire started was badly burned.

But these little pieces of litter amount to around 8.8 million tons of trash in the world's oceans, poisoning and choking sealife, according to figures from the World Wildlife Foundation.Now, in a set of images titled The Price Of Convenience by Waters has shown the destroying effects that casual littering has on creatures. In one image called “your convenience is their extinction”, a sea turtle's shell is hollowed out(掏空) and filled with banana skins, soda cans, and other debris.“It is shocking the amount of trash in the oceans,” Waters, 23, said, describing his project which he has begun a campaign to the WWF. “When you leave litter on the beach,you are treating the ocean like a trash can. When you throw trash over the side of a boat, you're treating the ocean like a trash can. And when you leave litter at a beach festival or party, it's the same.Obviously it would beimpossible to clean the oceans but I felt I had to try something.”Waters explained that he, like many other Westerners, has always been aware of environmental concerns but did not begin to do something about i.The turning point came as he visited Malaysia with his girlfriend last year. He reached the shore to find piles of trash.But it was beautiful, the smell of the air, of the ocean.I had a strong feeling for it after I started researching trash in the ocean. A few months later, he came across the video of a sea turtle in obvious agony(痛苦) with a drinking straw stuck up its nostrils(鼻孔).That video inspired the first of Waters' three images. “Sea turtles are such gentle creatures. I felt sick watching that video.Trash left on a beach by humans caused so much pain and suffering.These animals don't have voices so we've got to speak up for them.” he added.Waters has not yet received a response from WWF regarding his images.For now, he says, he is inspired to develop more campaigns that raise awareness of environmental concerns.1.What can be found in the sea turtle's shell according to the passage?A.Some ice cream.B.Some drawings.C.Some litter.D.Some creatures.2.Why did the turtle in the video seem very painful?A.Because its nostrils were full of cigarette butts.B.Because it had been poisoned and seemed to be dying.C.Because most of its body parts had been injured seriously.D.Because there was a drinking straw stuck up its nostrils.3.Water's trying something aims to ________.A.make the polluted ocean become cleanB.remind people awareness of ocean pollutionC.improve his skill of drawing picturesD.get some support from the WWF4、 US music legend Bob Dylan won the Nobel Literature Prize on October 13,2016, the first songwriter to win the well-known award in a decision that stunned prize watchers.Dylan,75, was honored “for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition”, the Swedish Academy said.The choice was met by gasps (倒吸气)and a long round of applause from journalists attending the prize announcement. The folk singer has been mentioned in Nobel speculation in the past years, but was never seen as a serious contender.The academy's permanent secretary, Sara Danius, said Dylan's songswere ”poetry for the ears“.“Dylan has the status of an icon. His influence on contemporary music is profound(意义深远的),” the academy wrote in biographical notes about the famously private singer.Last year, the prize went to Belarusian author Svetlana Alexievich for her documentarystyle narratives based on witness testimonies(证言).Dylan will take home the 8 million krone ($971,000) prize.The Nobel is the latest award for the singer, who has come a long way from his humble beginnings as Robert Allen Zimmerman, born in 1941 in Duluth, Minnesota, and who taught himself to play the harmonica(口琴), guitar and piano.Attracted by the music of folk singer Woody Guthrie, Zimmerman changed his name to BobDylan-reportedly after the Welsh poet Dylan Thomas-and began performing in local night clubs.After dropping out of college, he moved to New York in 1960. His first album contained only two original songs, but the 1963 breakthrough The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan featured a lot of his own songs, including the classic Blowin' in the Wind.1.Which of the following can be the best title for the news report?A.Music icon Bob Dylan wins Nobel Prize in LiteratureB.Bob Dylan has created new poetic expressionsC.Bob Dylan's influence on contemporary music is profoundD.Bob Dylan's has been mentioned in Nobel speculation in the past years2.What is the possible meaning of the underlined word “ contender ” in Para.3?A.A person who invites guests to a social event.B.Someone who takes part in a competition.C.someone in charge of training an athlete or a teamD.A person in a court of law who decides how the law should be applied.3.How did the journalists feel the moment they heard the news that Bob Dylan won the Nobel Prize in Literature?A.Calm.B.Relieved.C.Surprised.D.Unfair.4.All of the following are true EXCEPT that ________.A.Dylan Thomas was a Welsh poetB.Blowin' in the Wind is one of Bob Dylan's articlesC.Sara Danius is the academy's permanent secretary`st year, the Nobel Prize in Literature went to a Belarusian author二、七选五5、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。

黑龙江省北安市实验中学2018届高考英语冲刺精品模拟卷(二) 含答案

【原创精品】2018年高考英语冲刺60天精品模拟卷（二）第1卷一、阅读理解1、 A visit to Australia would not be complete without taking the chance to see some of these animals in their natural environment.Frilled LizardThe Frilled Lizard is found in the eastern and northern parts of Australia, living within the bush. The Frilled Lizards frill normally hangs around its neck, and is made out of a flap of skin. When threatened the Frilled Lizard will raise its frill making it seen more dangerous.BandicootThere are several species of Bandicoot around Australia, and although occasionally they can be seen during the day, they are generally nocturnal. Bandicoots are small creatures only about the size of a rat and eat small insects and plants. Several of the Bandicoots around Australia include the Eastern Barred Bandicoot, which is now rare around Australia and the Southern Brown Bandicoot found in eastern and western parts of Australia.KoalaKoalas are small bearlike creatures that live along the east coast of Australia, with their habitat amongst(在……之中) the famous Eucalyptus trees. However, koalas only like to eat a small percentage of the Eucalyptus trees found around Australia. Koalas have hard black noses, with sharp claws and a thick furry coat and can grow to a weight of about 10kg. Most of their time is spent asleep in the trees, which is the best place to see a koala.DingoDingoes are found in various areas across Australia, and unlike domestic dogs they do not bark. Instead,the Dingo makes a howling sound that is very particular. Dingoes generally eat mice, rabbits and rats, although sometimes they can also attack livestock when hungry.1.When in danger the Frilled Lizard will raise its frill to ________.A.look more beautifulB.make itself comfortableC.frighten its enemyD.attract the opposite sex2.What does the underlined word “nocturnal” mean in the passage?A.Dangerous when attacked.B.Active at night.C.Small in size.D.Gentle in the daytime.3.According to the passage, which animal likes resting in the tree?A.Frilled Lizard.B.Dingo.C.Bandicoot.D.Koala.2、 Mahendra, a former senior officer at the State Bank of India, talks about his disabled and wounded dogs like a father about his children—with the same love, affection, and warmth. He's a wellknown animal rights activist, the secretary at People for Animals (PFA). But nothing explains Mahendra better than his love for animals. It was this love that led him to establish India's first shelter home for dogs living with disabilities.It all started in 1998 when, while taking a midnight walk, Mahendra came across a very weak dog on the street, whose bones were seen under its skin. Mahendra decided to feed it and for the next couple of days it became the centre of his life, until the night when he found it dead. Since then, Mahendra started providing treatment to all wounded and sick dogs he came across. After some time, somebody told Mahendraabout PFA, India's largest animal welfare organization, chaired by Mrs Maneka Gandhi. Mahendra contacted her and, impressed by the work he was doing, Mrs Gandhi asked him to start a PFA chapter in Ahmedabad.Thus, in 2014, he started the shelter. It took a long time for Mahendra to find land where the shelter could be set up. Finally, Ramesh Bhai Patel, a farmer from a village named Jundal, agreed to give his land for nothing. Along with a team of four doctors and many volunteers, the shelter now has twentyfive dogs that were unable to walk at all when they were brought in. Today, they're slowly healing.Dogs that have healed with proper treatment are sent back to where they came from if the environment there is safe. However, the shelter will be home to the blind dogs for all their lives, says Mahendra.The shelter runs on the money coming from Mahendra's own pocket. There have been some financial crunches now and then but Mahendra is determined that no matter what challenges come their way, they'll fight through.1.From Paragraph 1, what can we know about Mahendra?A.His affection for animals.B.His love for senior people.C.His care for disabled people.D.His devotion to protecting his children.2.Mahendra decided to do something for animals because of ________.A.the death of a homeless sick dogB.his meeting with a sick dog one nightC.the encouragement of Mrs GandhiD.his contact with the organization PFA3.In his effort to build the shelter, Mahendra ________.A.spent much money hiring a landB.received little support from othersC.got a free land from a farmerD.was financially supported by the government4.What does the underlined word “crunches” in the last paragraph mean?A.Aids.B.Markets.C.Services.D.Difficulties.3、 Thanks to the Internet and technology, the world has become one big market, and you can sit in the comforts of your home and shop for anything you want. You no longer have to drive to the actual shops and fish out what you want. Simply filter (筛选) your search, sitting on your sofa, select the desired product, and make the required payment. The shipment will reach your doorstep.However, everything comes at a price; so does online shopping. It's subject to more threats, especially when you make online shopping mistakes. For example, you may be an impulsive (冲动的) buyer and buy something without reading all the details of the product properly. If you don't read the product description carefully, there are high chances that the item you receive might not match what you expect.The biggest hurdle in online shopping is that you cannot inspect your product beforehand. Therefore, take a cue from the experiences of other consumers from the online posts. Additionally, you may make mistakes like giving an incorrect address, typing incorrect quantity details. Such mistakes can make you end up getting a delayed delivery.Not following safety tips while shopping is also a common mistake you may commit. For instance, you may not take into account other charges, or use a public WiFi to make a purchase, which may give away your card details. So ensure online safety while making a purchase online.Luckily, if some mistake has occurred, you can make an attempt to repair it. For example, you can contact the customer service and register your complaint. It's better to have a written record by also sending an email to the company. It's advisable to have your purchase transaction well documented, so that you can provide legal evidence to the company.1.If you don't read the product descriptions thoroughly, you'll probably ________.A.forget to follow safety tipsB.be addicted to online shopping easilyC.receive an item you don't wantD.make a purchase as you expect2.What can prevent the product reaching you in time?A.Not reading its consumer reviews.B.Not posting letter to the company in advance.C.Not taking other charges into consideration.D.Not checking information before placing an order.3.Your card information may be stolen if you do online shopping ________.A.with a public Wi-FiB.on a private websiteC.in your friend's storeD.in a trustworthy company4.What should we do when online shopping goes wrong?A.Make a list of your requirements.B.Report the online shop to the government.C.Send the purchase information to the police.D.Get your complaint registered at the customer service.4、 Sometimes, you just can't help it. Maybe you're watching a sad movie, or thinking about the friend who moved away. Next thing you know, there's a lump in your throat, your eyes are watering, and you have tears running down your cheeks.A professor of psychology at Tilburg University, in the Netherlands,has studied crying.According to Vingerhoets, there're three types of tears. Basal tears are the first type. They act as a protective barrier between the eye and the rest of the world.Next are reflex tears. They wash your eyes clean when something gets in them. Finally, there're emotional tears. “These are released in response to emotional states,” explains Vingerhoets.Scientists believe crying has something to do with how humans developed and le arned to depend on each other. “Humans are very complex social creatures,” saysLauren Bylsma, a professor from Pittsburgh University, in Pennsylvania. “It seems that tears can make them get help and support from others.”She says another reason why we weep is that humans have the longest developmental period of almost any animal. It takes a long time to grow up.Vingerhoets agrees. “I think that the reason why humans shed(流出)emotional tears has to do with our prolonged(延长的) childhood,” he says. “That's the time when we're still dependent on adults for love,protection and care. The major advantage of tears is t hat you can target them at a specific person.”Vingerhoets says this ability could have come in handy in prehistoric times, when humans were living among dangerous animals. Loud crying could attract predators (捕食者). Tears were a safer way to get attent ion. “In this case, it's better to use a silent signal to ask for help,” he says. Vingerhoets and Bylsma do frequent studies to better understand why humans cry.1.The tears mentioned in Paragraph 1 should belong to ________.A.basal tearsB.reflex tearsC.happy tearsD.emotional tears2.What is Vingerhoets' attitude to the effects of tears?A.Passive.B.Positive.C.Doubtful.D.Indifferent.3.The underlined phrase of “a silent signal” probably refers to ________.A.a written languageB.predatorsC.tearsD.loud crying4.What is the best title of the text?A.Types of TearsB.Precious TearsC.Secrets of TearsD.On Tears二、七选五5、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。

is a noun,isn't it?Why is it modifying tea?English often uses nouns as adjectives to modify other nouns.For example,a car that people drive in races is a race car.A car with extra power or speed is a sports car.Nouns that modify other nouns are called adjectival nouns.Did you notice something unusual about the expressions with the noun car?A car used to race other cars is a race car.Both nouns are singular.A car that has power and speed is a sports car.Why is the first noun,sports,plural?A search of the Internet shows us that people started using this phrase back in 1914.Cars were a new thing then.There is no rule about whether the attributive noun is singular or plural.Most of the time it is singular.But if the combination of nouns includes a plural noun,it usually stays that way.The result is phrases like ladies room,not lady room,for a room meant for women and girls,and bean soup but not beans soup for a soup made of beans.Some grammar experts think that English speakers are using more plural nouns in this way.When writing these attributive nouns in English,learners sometimes wonder about whether to use an apostrophe(撇号)to show possession.Is it a ladies' room?No,it is a ladiesroom.Attributive nouns do not need the apostrophe.So we write Veterans(老兵)Day in American English and not Veteran's Day or Veterans' Day.That means the day is in honor of military veterans,not owned by veterans.1.What's the topic of this text?A.The function of nouns.B.Special kinds of adjective.C.A special use of nouns.D.The use of adjectives.2.Adjectival nouns can be used to describe________.A.adjectivesB.sentencesC.phrasesD.other nouns3.Why is the plural form “sports” is used to describe a noun?A.It is a traditional usage.B.It is a rule of grammar.C.It is a grammar mistake.D.It is a form of stress.4.Which of the following is a correct English expression?dies' room.B.Veteran's Day.C.Veterans' Day.二、七选五It is back-to-school time in the United States,which for children is bittersweet.The bitter part is for saying goodbye to carefree summer days.①This exciting time is filled with smells of new books,paper and pencils.Children might dress in a new set of clothes and wear new shoes.However,going back to school can also be a stressful time for children andfamilies.②Families might also feel stress about spending extra money for a new school year.Parents often need to pay school fees or to buy new school clothes,sports equipment,musical instruments and school supplies.When parents are stressed,children feel the tension.③Younger children may feel scared to leave their families.Older students may stress about their appearances,grades and getting into college.However,teachers and children can all help to make the transition back to school easier.④She focuses on the class routine during the start of the new school year.“Well,for the students,I have my classroom set up with a very clear system.⑤And that routine is very comforting and will not cause them stress if they know exactly where things are located and what type of behavior is expected of them.So,that really reduces the stress and the anxiety,”she said.Whether you are in 1st grade or 10th grade,knowing what they expect is a good way to reduce stress.A.So,I will introduce the system.B.There are the first-day-of-school pictures.C.Lori Bambina has been a teacher for 22 years.D.The sweet part is saying hello to a new school year.E.Making new friends can also cause stress for students.F.Backto-school stress is different for different grades of
