It’s an easy way to start a conversation. But do you know some weather terms can also express a feeling or situation. Here are some interesting expressions.Head in the cloudsIf someone has his head in the clouds, they are out of touch with the everyday world and can be unrealistic as a result.The expression reminds you to be aware of what’s happening around you.Take a rain checkIf you hear someone say “I’ll take a rain check”, it doesn’t mean that he will go out to see if it’s raining.In fact, the expression could be used as a polite way to turn down invitations. However, not as a full refusal, butmore likely to put the invitation off to another time.When it rains, it poursThe expression is used when something goes wrong, especially when a lot of things go wrong at the same time. People like to say it when they meet with bad lucks one after another in a short time.Weather the stormAs an extreme weather, a storm could be very dangerous and cause serious results. To weather the storm is to get through difficult situations in your life.1．Why do English people love talki ng about the weather in the writer’s opinion?A．They care about the weather very much.B．They want to know what’s happening around them.C．They don’t have other interesting things to talk about.D．They think it’s an easy way to start a conversation.2．What does the underlined phrase “turn down” mean?A．accept B．refuse C．throw D．change3．Which of the following statements is true?A．The whole article is telling us how to tell the weather.B．The writer thinks if someone has his head in the clouds, the person m ust care about what’s happening very much. C．When somebody says “when it rains, it pours”, he must be unlucky.D．The expression “weather the storm” can be used to put off an appointment.B14、Some people believe that classes, teachers and school buildings will no longer be necessary in the near future because of the Internet and other new technology. Perhaps this will be true one day, but if the world has no schools, I can't imagine how our society will be. In fact, we should learn how to use new technology to make schools better. We should invent a new kind of school connected to libraries, museums, science centers, labs and even companies. Technological companies should create learning programs for schools. Scientists could give talks through the Internet. TV networks and local stations could develop programs about things students are studying in school. Labs could set up websites to show new technology, so students could see it on the Internet.Is this a dream? No. There have been many cities where this is beginning to happen. Here the whole city is connected to the Internet, and learning can take place at home, at school, and in the office. Businessesprovide programs for the schools and the society. The schools provide computer labs for people without their own computers at home. Because everyone can go on the Internet, older people use it as much as younger ones, and everyone can visit faraway librariesand museums as easily as nearby ones. How will this new thing of school change the usual way of learning? It is a little early to be sure, but it is very exciting to think about it. Technology will change the way we learn; schools will change as well; and we will learn something from the Internet.1．Who thinks that students won’t have to go to school?A．Everyone. B．The writer.C．Some people. D．The teachers.2．What does “a new kind of school” mean in the passage?A．A school with many new computers.B．A school with many new students.C．A school with many new teachers.D．A school connected to the Internet.3．What the writer thinks is that____________.A．schools are still necessaryB．more schools should be builtC．there should be fewer schoolsD．more computers are needed in schools4．Why do people think learning can take place at home,at school, and in the office?A．Because whole city is connected to the Internet.B．Because everyone can go on the Internet.C．Because gettting online is very easy.D．Because scientists could give talks through the Internet.5．What fact does the passage NOT provide?A．Technology will change our way of learning.B．If you are a student ,you can set. up websites to show new technology.C．The schools provide computer labs for those who have no personal computers.D．On the Internet,you can visit another city’s libraries as easily as the peop le there.C15、Y our junior high school years are coming to an end. After the big exam, most of you will go on to study in a senior school. What are you expecting from senior high school? Let’s hear some teen readers talk about it.Zhou Zhijie, 15, from Shanghai:I have heard that although Senior 3 is a hard year, Senior 1 and Senior 2 are lessstressful. I hope there’ll be time then toenjoy sports. There will be plenty to see. Especially, the World Cup in Brazil is coming. We can watch football matches. I’m sure I’ll really enjoy it.Jin Xi, 16, from Harbin, Heilongjiang:I really enjoy science. I visit many science exhibitions. I am interested in UFOs, too. I’m crazy about making model planes, although I’m not very good at it because I don’t really have enough scientific knowledge. I’ll be learning more science in senior high school. In a word, sometime in the future I’m going to build an excellent model plane!Wang Yaling, 15, from Xiamen, Fujian:I hope I can be taller in senior high school. I’m only 155c m. Many people grow faster in senior and I hope I will, too. I want to be 162cm. But I’m not sure about that, since most girls in my family don’t grow taller than 160cm. I hope I’m different.Zhang Fang, 15, from Hebi, Henan:I expect that I’ll make more friends in senior high school. I study in a middle school in the country. Most of my classmates live nearby. In senior high school, I’ll meet different people from different areas. I hope I can learn new things from them.根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填涂在答题卡的相应位置。

Unlike American or other European beers, it is served cool but not cold.Nowadays,a lot of English people enjoy a European beers called lager（淡味啤酒）.This is lighter, more refreshing(清新的) and is served cold. Beer is sold in pint or half-pint glasses (a pint is just over half a litre).When you order a drink, ask for a ‘pint’ or a ‘half’ of the beer you want to try.There is no waiter service in an English pub.You go to the bar and place your order to the pub staff. They will pour your drinks and pass them to you. They will then tell you how much to pay.You have to pay your drinks there and then. After receiving your change,you can carry your drinks back to a table to enjoy. It is usual for friends to take turns buying drinks for each other.This is known as’buying a round’.Pubs sell cheap food too.The choice of food ranges(涉及) from small bar snacks such as crisps and peanuts ,tothree-course meals.A popular meal during the summer months is a ‘ploughman’s lunch ’.This is a dish ofbread ,cheese or ham ,and salad which is ser ved cold.You will often find a pub’s menu written on a blackboard .There may even be daily specials for you to try.You must be at least 18 years old to buy alcohol(含酒精的饮料)in England. Children under 14 years old are not usually allowed inside a pub, but families with children can sit outside in the garden, known as the beer garden ,when the weather is warm .Parents are allowed to buy soft drinks for their children.Pubs are places where people go to enjoy themselves .People like to drink, eat ,talk with friends and have a good time.If you go to an English pub ,you will get a true taste of English life.1．Traditional English beer is __________.A．served slightly cold B．served in pint glasses onlyC．Served by waiters D．called lager2．The bar staff ___________________.A．are called waiters B．expect you to tip themC．pour your drinks before you pay D．pour your drinks after you pay3．If you ‘buy a round’,you ______A．pay for your drinks at the end of a mealB．taste a variety of beersC．share the cost of drinking with friendsD．pay for your own drinks4．.Pub food _______A．is cheese or ham B．doesn’t cost much mo neyC．is called a ‘bar snack’D．is special English meal5．.Children _________A．are allowed in pubs B．can not drink alcoholC．must not eat pub food D．must buy rounds of drinks6．English pubs______A．serve only alcoholic drinks B．are for families onlyC．serve both food and drink D．are no longer common in EnglandD16、If you’ve tried studying when you’re tired, you know that it can seem very impossible to do well.A study of sleep in sparrows suggests the relationship between sleep and the ability to learn may be more complicated(复杂) than people knew.Niels C·Rattenborg, a scientist from Wisconsin-Madison, wanted to find out how the sparrows were able to deal with getting so much less sleep. He and his team brought eight wild birds into a lab and watched them for one year. They invented a game to check how well the birds could learn. In the game, the sparrows had to peck(啄)three buttons （按钮）in a right order to get a food treat. The scientists discovered that the birds’ ability to learn the right button or der depended on(依靠)two things: the time of year and the amount of sleep the birds had had.During the migration（迁徙）season, the sparrows were restless at night and got much less sleep than usual. Even so, they were able to understand how to get the food qui ckly as if they’d had a regular night of sleep. Outside the migration season, they found the sparrows that got less sleep than usual had much more difficulty learning how to get the food treats than birds that had a regular sleep.The results show that the sparrows can deal with much less sleep during the migration season than usual. If scientists can find out why, they may learn from sparrows and find ways of helping people deal with getting much less sleep. Until scientists fully understand the relationsh ip between sleep and learning, it’s better to get plenty of sleep when preparing for an exam.1．The passage is mainly about .A．sparrows’ migration.B．sleep lessons from Sparrows.C．how to get less sleep while studyingD．how sparrows that got less sleep get food treats2．Why can sparrows get much less sleep during the migration season?A．They eat more.B．The climate is betterC．They can get food quicklyD．Scientists still don’t know the reason.3．What fact does the passage lead you to believe?A．We should sleep as little as sparrows do.B．We should get enough sleep before an exam.C．When tired, we should try to focus on(聚焦) our study.D．When tired, we should check how we can sleep less than usual.E17、April will bring a new product - the Apple Watch - into the market. Last week, the watch was firstly introduced by Tun Cook, Apple's CEO. The price of the watch will differ from $349 to $1,099, depending on its size, strap and whether it is a sports or regular style.Apple engineers and designers have put in a lot of thought and hard work into creating this "small screen" on your wrist(手腕). The "sensor" on the screen not only detects your finger, but knows the difference between when you are tapping, and when you are pressing harder.The watch also has "hal)tic feedback(触觉反馈)". Y ou can send personal messages to your friend - such as drawing a star or a special sign with your fingers, or tapping the watch, say 3 times, and your friend will receive those taps on their wrist. Besides telling the time, the watch will use bluetooth' to connect with your iPhone and show calls or text messages that come in.According to Tim Cook, the watch may open up a whole new area of applications that we had never thought of. Some car factories like BMW have developed an app that allows its car owners to open their cars with the watch. A Hotels' app may allow you to open the door to your hotel room without worrying about losing the smart-card. And finally, even airlines are jumping in - passengers may be able to simply wave their wrist to check into their flight.The biggest use of the watch, however, is as your personal fitness coach. The watch can measure your pulse (heartbeat) using a sensor at the bottom of the watch. It also has the same "accelerometer" as your iPhone, so it knows when you are moving, and also how much you are walking or running, It will remind you if you have been sitting for too long without much activity.Many stores are planning to stop selling FitBit devices(设备) to welcome the Apple Watch. Will Apple Watch really replace these devices and make fitness much more fun?1．What product will Apple the company bring into the market?A．The apple. B．The new mobile phone.C．The apple watch.

A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time; if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the languages he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people.In the same way, when children learn to do all the other things, they learn to do without being taught-to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle-compare those performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his own mistakes for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work？Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get the right answer. Let’s end this nonsense of grades, exams, marks. Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.1．What does the author think is the best way for children to learn things？A．by copying what other people doB．by making mistakes and having them correctedC．by listening to explanations from skilled peopleD．by asking a great many questions2．According to the writer, teachers in school should _____A．allow children to learn from each otherB．point out children’s mistakes whenever foundC．correct children’s mistakes as soon as possibleD．give children more book knowledge3．The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are___.A．not really important skills B．more important than other skillsC．basically different from learning adult skills D．basically the same as learning other skills4．Exams, grades, and marks should be abolished because children’s progress should only be estimated by___. A．educated persons B．the children themselves C．teachers D．parentsB14、Pubs are an important part of British life. Pubs, formally public houses, are common in towns and villages in England.People usually talk,eat, drink,meet their friends and relax there.You can order soft drinks like orange juice,cola or coffee ,but many people go to pubs to have an alcoholic drink.Many types of alcoholic drinks are available, but the most popular drink is beer.Traditional English beer comes in a variety of local flavors and is called ‘draught’beer .All draught beer is served from a hand pump on the bar rather than in bottles or cans. Unlike American or other European beers, it is served cool but not cold.Nowadays,a lot of English people enjoy a European beers called lager（淡味啤酒）.This is lighter, more refreshing(清新的) and is served cold. Beer is sold in pint or half-pint glasses (a pint is just over half a litre).When you order a drink, ask for a ‘pint’ or a ‘half’ of the beer you want to try.There is no waiter service in an English pub.You go to the bar and place your order to the pub staff. They will pour your drinks and pass them to you. They will then tell you how much to pay.You have to pay your drinks there and then. After receiving your change,you can carry your drinks back to a table to enjoy. It is usual for friends to take turns buying drinks for each other.This is known as’buying a round’.Pubs sell cheap food too.The choice of food ranges(涉及) from small bar snacks such as crisps and peanuts ,tothree-course meals.A popular meal during the summer months is a ‘ploughman’s lunch ’.This is a dish ofbread ,cheese or ham ,and salad which is served cold.You will often find a pub’s menu written on a blackboard .There may even be daily specials for you to try.You must be at least 18 years old to buy alcohol(含酒精的饮料)in England. Children under 14 years old are not usually allowed inside a pub, but families with children can sit outside in the garden, known as the beer garden ,when the weather is warm .Parents are allowed to buy soft drinks for their children.Pubs are places where people go to enjoy themselves .People like to drink, eat ,talk with friends and have a good time.If you go to an English pub ,you will get a true taste of English life.1．Traditional English beer is __________.A．served slightly cold B．served in pint glasses onlyC．Served by waiters D．called lager2．The bar staff ___________________.A．are called waiters B．expect you to tip themC．pour your drinks before you pay D．pour your drinks after you pay3．If you ‘buy a round’,you ______A．pay for your drinks at the end of a mealB．taste a variety of beersC．share the cost of drinking with friendsD．pay for your own drinks4．.Pub food _______A．is cheese or ham B．doesn’t cost much mo neyC．is called a ‘bar snack’D．is special English meal5．.Children _________A．are allowed in pubs B．can not drink alcoholC．must not eat pub food D．must buy rounds of drinks6．English pubs______A．serve only alcoholic drinks B．are for families onlyC．serve both food and drink D．are no longer common in EnglandC15、London used to be “foggy”--- the “fog” was in fact smog, a mixtureof smoke and fog. In other words, it was caused by air pollution. In London, some of this pollution came from factories, but a lot of it came from the coal that people burnt in their houses to keep warm during the winter. By the 1950s, London’s smog problem had become so bad that the government decided to do something to clean up the air. It didn’t allow people to born coal in any B ritish city. A few years later, the air became much cleaner.Today many Chinese cities face the same problem with air pollution that London faced sixty years ago. However, this problem is more difficult for Chinese cities to solve. One reason is that more of pollution comes from big factories, rather than from the coal burnt in people’s houses. If these factories were suddenly closed, it would harm the economy and lots of people would lose their jobs. Another reason is that changing from coal to cleaner fuels is quite expensive. However, the air in many cities will become cleaner, as the government and ordinary people pay more and more attention to protecting the environment.1．（小题1）Where was the pollution from in London over sixty years ago?A．The pollution came from factories.B．The pollution was from coal that people burnt in their houses.C．The pollution was from too much traffic on the roads.D．The pollution was from factories and coal that people burnt in their houses.2．（小题2）How was the air in London after the government didn’t allow people to born coal in any British city?A．It was still foggy. B．It was smog.C．It was much cleaner. D．It was stormy.3．（小题3）What is the main idea of the second paragraph?A．In most of Chinese cities there is smog.B．The reasons of smog in China.C．The reasons of why it’s difficult for China to solve “smog”.D．What did Chinese government do to solve “smog”.4．（小题4）Which of the following is not true EXCEPT ____.A．people in London were allowed to born coal sixty years ago.B．the air pollution in many Chinese cities is not serious.C．smog in fact is a mixture of smoke and fog.D．changing from coal to cleaner fuels is quite easy and cheap.D16、A short Chinese man seems to be the tallest in the world right now. Jack Ma（Ma Yun),50, is executive chairman（董事局主席）of Alibaba Group, a business-to-business online platform. On Sept. 19, Alibaba went public (上市) on the New York Stock Exchange (纽约证卷交易所)，raising $25 billion through an IPO(首次公开发行股票), the biggest in US history.

一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Artificial intelligence can predict when patients with a heart disorder will die, according to scientists.The software learned to analyze blood tests and scans of beating hearts to spot signs that the organ was about to fail. The team, from the UK's Medical Research Council, said the technology could save lives by finding patients that need more aggressive treatment. The results were published in the Journal of Radiology.According to the researchers, high blood pressure in the lungs damages part of the heart, and about a third of patients die within five years after being diagnosed. There are treatments: drugs, injections straight into the blood vessels, a lung transplant. But doctors need to have an idea of how long patients might have left, in order to pick the right treatment.The software was given scans of 256 patients' hearts, and blood test results. When this data was combined with eight years of patient health records, the artificial intelligence predicted when patients would die.The software could look about five years into the future. It correctly predicted those who would still be alive after one year about 80% of the time. The figure for doctors is 60%.The team now want to test the software works in other patients in different hospitals before assessing whether it should be made widely available to doctors. The researchers also want to use the technology in other forms of heart failure, such as cardiomyopathy, to see who might need a pacemaker or other forms of treatment.Dr Mike Knapton, from the British Heart Foundation, said, "This exciting use of computer software in medical practice will help doctors in the future to make sure that patients are receiving the correct treatment before the condition deteriorates and leaves them needing a lung transplant. The next step is to test this technology in more hospitals with heart disease."（1）What can artificial intelligence do according to the passage?A. Predicting how long a person with heart disease can survive.B. Helping doctors diagnose people with heart disease.C. Obeying orders and reminding heart disease patients to take pills.D. Producing medicine without side effects for heart disease patients.（2）What can we know about the software from the passage?A. It can make accurate long-term predictions.B. It has not yet been widely put into use.C. It can prevent high blood pressure in the lungs damaging part of the heart.D. It can help doctors make sure that patients are receiving the correct treatment.（3）The underlined word "deteriorates" in the last paragraph probably means "________."A. continuesB. worsensC. existsD. improves（4）The author's purpose of writing the text is most likely to _________.A. advertiseB. persuadeC. informD. entertain【答案】（1）A（2）B（3）B（4）C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，科学家称，人工智能可以预测心脏病患者何时死亡，这项技术可以通过找到需要更积极治疗的病人来挽救生命。

Go and see!" Then Bill goes to the countryside with Paul. "Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city. You would live in a nice house made of stone. You would have better food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city." "Thanks! Maybe you are right. I'll vis it your house one day." Several days later, Paul goes to Bill's house in the city. The house is big and beautiful. They are sitting in the dining room, having a big dinner comfortably. Suddenly, there is a great noise.

This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them.At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water（自来水）before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill.Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.Serving in restaurants is often large, too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a“doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself.Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have“Sunday dinner”. This is an especially big noon meal.Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either.A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.（）51．Which statement is true?A．American people like sitting with people they don’t knowB．A hostess always seats a small group at a large tableC．American people never sit with people they don’t knowD．American people will not light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking（）52．What is served before you order?A．Bread. B．Butter. C．Coffee. D．Cold water.（）53．What do Amerian people always do when servings are too large for them?A．They take the food home with a“doggie bag”for their dogs.B．They leave the food on the table and go away.C．They take the food home with a“doggie bag”and enjoy the food later.D．They ask the waitress or waiter to keep the food for them.（）54．What can you learn about“tips”according to the passage?A．Customers often add tips to their check.B．The price of the meal usually includes the tip.C．People are not expected to pay tips in addition.D．Tips are suppose to be left on the table when customers leave.BZai Kakal jumed out of the beat-up Toyota flashing a big smile.Under the watchful eyes of a traffic officer, she had just completed her road test, the final step toward what few women in Afghanistan have had in a decade（十年）: A driver’s license.“I feel very great today,”said Kakal, 48.“It was like a dream come true.”The accountant at the Women’s Affairs Ministry was the first of 12 women last week to take the test in Kabul, Afghanistan. To pass, they had to drive a yellow Toyota Corolla about 25 meters along an L-shaped road near Kabul Stadium and then repeat the course in reverse. Those who qualified will get their licenses in six days.Women have not been allowed to drive on Afghanistan since 1992, when Islamic（伊斯兰）groups took control of the capital, Kabul, and began to restrict women’s public roles. Restrictions on women became even stricter in 1996, when the Islamic Taliban（塔利班）army took control and banned women almost entirely from the workplace and classroom.Women have enjoyed far greater freedoms since the Taliban’s fall in late 2001, followed by the installation（就任）of an interim（过渡）government.（）55．This passage may most probably appear in .A．a novel B．a newspaperC．a textbook D．a guide book on Afghanistan（）56．Which statement is true according to the passage?A．Between 1992 and 2001, Kabul was controlled by three Islamic groups.B．12 women got their licenses in Kabul.C．Kakal is the first woman in Afghanistan who has a drive’s license.D．In order to get a license, you should only pass the road test.（）57．Why did Kakal say“I feel very great today”?A．Because she would get her license.B．Because she would take the final step.C．Because she spent a decade in driving.D．Because she enjoyed her freedom.（）58．The main idea of the passage is .A．to describe the present living condition of Afghanistan womenB．to inform us of the fall of TalibanC．to tell us something about Afghanistan women by comparing the past and the present.D．to report something interesting that is happening in AfghanistanCThis story took place a long time ago. But it has been repeated time and time again. Everyone is moved by the true story.An old man was knocked down by a car and was taken to hospital. He was badly hurt, and during his few returns to consciousnees（知觉）, he repeatedly called for his son.None knew where his son was. A dirty letter was found in his pockets. The nurse learned that his son was a soldier in North Carolina.The hospital called the Red Gross office to find the young man. The young soldier was rushed to the airport in time to catch the plane.It was evening when the young soldier walked into the hospital. A nurse took him to the bedsides of the old man.“Your son is here,”she said to the old man. She had to repeated the words several times before the old man’s eyes opened. He dimly saw the young man and got great comfort. He reached out his hand. The soldier held the old man’s hand and offered words of hope.All through the night the young soldier sat beside the bed. The nurse offered to watch instead of him for a while, he refused.At dawn the old man died. The nurse started to comfort him but the soldier asked her,“Who was that old man?”“He was your father,”she answered.“No, he wasn’t. I never saw him before.I knew right away there was a mistake, but I also knew he needed his son, and his son just wasn’t here. I realized I was needed. So I stayed.”（）59．What is true about the old man?A．He was seriously injured and would die soon.B．He knew quite well what had happened to him.C．He once and again wanted to call his son.D．He was knocked dead near a hospital.（）60．When the old man and the young man met, .A．The old man wished the young man good luck in the future.B．The young man said something to comfort the old man.C．The doctors and nurses felt it hopeful to save the old man.D．They both recognized each other at once.（）61．We know from this passage .A．the Red Cross is something for people to find persons.B．the young man knew he was wrongly called when he got on the plane.C．the hospital had meant to save the old man with the young man’s coming but failed.D．The young man might have the same name as the old man’s son.DHilton English Language CenterInformation for New StudentsCLASS TIME：8:30a.m.—10:00a.m.，10:30a.m.—12:00a.m.，1:30p.m.—3:00p.m..The Language Center is open Monday to Friday.
