阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

A
The early 1900s were very different from today.Toys,though they have evolved in many ways,were still the delight of children everywhere.
Theodore Roosevelt's Presidency marks the beginning of the “Teddy Bear”. In the year 1902,toy bears were named “Teddy” after the president's nickname.The Teddy Bear became known worldwide,and is still known and loved today.It was only a few years later that the Teddy Bears were mass produced.
In 1913,an item called the Erector Set was invented.It was a steel,motorized toy that children could use to build models of anything.Its creator was A.C.Gilbert,a medical doctor.
Charles Pajeau created a similar wooden set called Tinker Toys in the year 1914.Tinker Toys were made for younger children.
Raggedy Ann dolls first came on the scene after newspaper cartoonist Johnny Gruelle reproduced the doll he made for his daughter.That was in 1915.
The following year,an architect's son named John Lloyd Wright,invented Lincoln Logs,which were interlocked to make structures.
Two years after Mickey Mouse was created,stuffed(填塞)Mickey Mouse dolls were made by Charlotte Clark.This was the start of Disney merchandise.
The yo­yo became popular in the United States after Donald Duncan bought a yo­yo company in 1929.
The View­Master,a three dimensional viewer,was developed by a camera enthusiast named William Gruber.The toy became popular when Gruber licensed Disney characters to make still,3­D images from Disney movies and television programs.
Finally,in 1940,model airplanes were mass produced.They started out as a way for manufacturers to sell planes to the military,but later
caught on as a toy.
The toys that we know and love today have had their roots from these ancient times.Isn't it interesting to know that if it hadn't been for all these creative people,most of the games you know today would never have been?
36.Why were toy bears named “Teddy”?
A.To be suitable for mass production.
B.To be easily pronounced by children.
C.To meet the advertisers' needs.
D.To memorize President Theodore Roosevelt.
37.In which aspect do the toys created by Gilbert differ from those by Charles?
A.Shape. B.Material used.
C.Themes. D.Price.
38.When did the View­Master become popular?
A.After William Gruber was born.
B.After Gruber licensed Disney characters.
C.Two years after Mickey Mouse was created.
D.When Disney merchandise was started.
39.From the last paragraph we can learn that________.
A.those people who created these games should never be forgotten B.some toys created in ancient times now disappear
C.creativity exists in every field all the time
D.toys nowadays are totally different from those in ancient times 40.What does the passage talk about?

B
“In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight.”
“Two full inches in the first three days!”
These are the kinds of statements used in magazine,newspaper,radio and television ads,promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device.The promoters of products say they can shape the legs,slim the face,smooth wrinkles,or in some other way to add to beauty or desirability.
Often such products are nothing more than money­making things for
their promoters.The results they produce are questionable,and some are dangerous to health.
To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public,it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation.If the product is a drug,FDA(Food and Drug Administration)can require proof under the Food,Drug,and Cosmetic Act that is safe and effective before it is put on the market.But if the product is a device,FDA has no authority to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness.If a product already on the market is a danger to health,FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily,or it can take legal action,including seizure(查封)of the product.
One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor,which had been sold for reducing the waistline.The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads.FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life.
Obviously,most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings(法律诉讼),and new devices appear continually.Before buying,it is up to the consumer to judge the safety or effectiveness of such items.
41.It can be inferred that the ads mentioned in the text are________.
A.objective B.costly
C.unreliable D.illegal
42.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A.The court is in charge of removing dangerous products.
B.New products are more likely to be questionable.
C.The production of a device must be approved by FDA.
D.The promoters usually just care about profits.
43.FDA can ask for the proof of safety and effectiveness of a product________.
A.if it is a drug
B.if it is a device
C.if its consumers make complaints
D.if its distributors challenge FDA's authority
44.The Relaxacisor is mentioned as________.
A.a product which was designed to produce electricity
B.a product whose distributor was involved in a legal case
C.a successful advertisement of a beauty product
D.an example of a quality beauty product
45.The author intends to________.
A.make consumers aware of the promoters' false promises
B.show the weakness of the law on product safety
C.give advice on how to keep young and beautiful
D.introduce the organization of FDA
C
Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance.
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created , a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.
Jason Swencki's son, Kody, was diagnosed with diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings. “Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over,” says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. “They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone.”
Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity(慈善机构), Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fight­ has raised about
$ 23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full­time job waiting tables. “Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure,” says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members. “But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need
help now.”
46.Which of the following is TRUE of Christopher Thomas?
A.He needs to go to the doctor every day.
B.He studies the leading cause of diabetes.
C.He has a positive attitude to this disease.
D.He encourages diabetics by writing articles.
47. was created for ________.
A.diabetics to communicate
B.volunteers to find jobs
C.children to amuse themselves
D.rock stars to share resources
48.According to the text, Kody ________.
A.feels lonely because of his illness
B.benefits from
C.helps create the online kid's forums
D.writes children's stories online
49.What can we learn about Fight It?
A.It helps the diabetics in financial difficulties.
B.It organizes parties for volunteer once a year.
C.It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics.
D.It owns a well­known medical website.
50.The last paragraph suggests that Thomas ________.
A.works full­time in a diabetes charity
B.employs 22 people for his website
C.helps diabetics in his own way
D.tries to find a cure for diabetes
D
Motorists who used to listen to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves, after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface.
A team from the Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of “melody roads”, which use cars as tuning forks(音叉)to play music as they travel.
The concept works by using grooves(凹槽).They are cut at very specific intervals in the road surface. The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes.
Depending on how far apart the grooves are, a car moving over them will produce a series of high or low notes, and designers are able to
create a distinct tune.
Patent documents for the design describe it as notches(刻痕)“formed in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melody­like tones”.
There are three musical strips in central and northern Japan—one of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song. Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda.He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer(推土机)before driving over them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tones.
The optimal speed for melody road is 44 kph,but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound.
“You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well,”wrote one Japanese blogger.“Driving too fast will sound like playing fast forward, while driving around 12 mph[20 km/h]has a slow­moti on effect, making you almost car­sick.”
51.According to the passage,melody roads use________to create different notes.
A.cars B.grooves
C.spaces between intervals D.bulldozers
52.We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes is depended on________.
A.how far the grooves are
B.how big the grooves are
C.the number of the grooves
D.the speed of the car
53.The underlined word “optimal” in the passage might
mean________.
A.fastest B.possible
C.best D.suitable
54.In order to hear the music well,you have to________.
A.drive very fast
B.drive slowly
C.open the windows wide
D.keep the windows closed
55.What's the best title of the passage?
A.A New Type of Music
B.Melody Roads in Japan
C.A Musical Road Surface
D.A New Invention in Japan

第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分;满分10分)
阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

Big storms. High waves. Technical failures. Loneliness. After battling hard times and danger for over nine months, British teenager Mike Perham made history last month as the youngest person to sail solo (单独) around the world.
The 17­year­old made the record after he cleared the Panama Canal (巴拿马运河) and then sailed through the Caribbean and home across the Atlantic.
Mike is only three months younger than Zac Sunderland, the
17­year­old American boy who had taken the crown as the youngest solo around­the­world sailor in July.
The two youngsters met in Cape Town in South Africa as they crossed the globe in different directions. Mike insisted they were not rival (竞争对手). “No. It’s two teenagers going out there, living their dream and having the adventure of a lifetime,” he said.
Mike may be young, but he is no stranger to sailing adventures. He picked up the hobby at age 6 when his father took him out in a small boat on a local lake. Father and son sailed separate boats across the Atlantic when Mike was 14, making him the youngest person to cross that ocean solo. That record gave him the taste for this even greater challenge.
On the recent journey, the scariest moment for Mike came when his sailboat was hit by storms in the southern Indian Ocean.
“We were picked up by what felt like a 60­foot wave and threw down on our side at 90 degrees,” he said.
“It felt like I was going right over. Stuff was flying around and I just thoug ht‘Oh no’.”
At other times, he had to dive into the Pacific and fix problems. He tied himself to the boat, jumped into the water and went to work with a knife in 30­second dives underneath (在……之下) the boat to cut a rope away.
Mike said he felt proud that he made his dream come true. “You’ve got to have confidence in yourself that you will make it,” he said.
56.What’s the main idea of the passage?(No more than 15 words) ________________________________________________________________
________
57.Which canal did Mike Perham cross? (No more than 3 words)
________________________________________________________________ ________
58.What does the underlined word “taste” in the fifth paragraph mean? (1 word)
________________________________________________________________ ________
59.What did Mike believe in? (No more than 10 words)
________________________________________________________________ ________
60.What do you think of Mike Perham? (No more than 10 words)

参考答案
第一部分
第一节
1.A 考查固定短语的用法。

take the risk of冒着……的危险;at risk 处于危险中;遭受危险。

2.A 语境:当我看到一些熟悉的面孔时,我开始感到舒畅了。

feel at home 感到畅快、自在; at heart在内心里(在本质上);at will 随意地;at sight 一见就……
3.A 考查动词短语辨析。

pick out挑选出,辨认出;stand out突出,出色;make out理解,辨认;stand for代表,象征;take out拿出,取出;
stand by支持,拥护,袖手旁观;bring out取出,显示;stand aside躲开,让开。

根据句意选A。

4.D 本题考查介词的搭配。

句意为:在为你的新房装修选窗帘的时候,重要的是要知道什么样的颜色映衬在墙纸上是最好看的。

against是映衬的意思。

根据句意可知,D为最佳答案。

5.B mind=be careful about 留心,留神。

6.A 考查词组辨析。

此处所要表达的意思是接着昨天的故事继续讲,A 项take up表示“继续”,符合题意。

take on“承担,呈现,雇用”;take in“理解,吸入,欺骗”;take over“接管,接替”,都不符合语境。

7.A 本题考查地点状语从句。

由where引导出地点状语,表示“在考试少的地方”。

8.D it is little/ small/ no wonder that… ……不足为怪。

9.D 本题考查词组辨析。

rather than而不是;or rather更确切地说;more than超过,多余;other than除了。

none other than意为“正是”。

10.C should在这里表示预期,意为“应该会,可能”。

can表示有能力做或能够发生;would表示想象中的结果;must表推测,或表必须。

11.B 把对话中的答语放到问句中可得I enjoy playing table tennis most…in the summer holidays.由此可知本题设空处应该是句子的目的状语而不是enjoy的宾语。

故选B。

12.C 考查as作关系代词的用法。

as“正如,就像”,引导非限制性定语从句。

13.C whoever引导的名词性从句作to的宾语,whoever又在这个从句中作主语。

whoever引导名词性从句时相当于any person who/the person who“任何人,无论谁,……的人”。

14.C 短语be opposed to sth./doing sth.意为“反对”。

此处用过去分词作后置定语,相当于定语从句who was opposed to carrying out…而object to (doing)sth.表示“反对(做)某事”,要作定语也要用现在分词形式。

15.A 该题考查情景交际用语。

F orget about it“算了吧,别提了”;No trouble“不麻烦”;All right“行了,好吧”;You’re welcome“不客气”。

根据语境可知,本题最佳答案为A。

第二节
16.C 许多孩子和养父母在一起要比和亲生父母在一起健康、开心得多,这并不是一个秘密。

对于那些在家里受亲生父母虐待的孩子而言尤其如此(true),因为(because)法律盲目认为生理上的父母会更好。

本句为对比句。

可参照下文It's also true of children … because of…
17.D 表原因,解析见上一题。

18.C 同样,对于那些在收养家庭中多年遭受(suffer)痛苦的孩子们来说也是如此,因为他们的养父母不能或者不愿意照顾他们,但是又拒绝(refuse)
放弃监护权。

19.B 解析见上一题。

20.C 14岁的Kimberly不适合(fits)上述两种情况。

21.B Kimberly的判例对属于上述两种情况的孩子而言最终(eventually)是有所帮助的。

22.B Kimberly向来是她的养父与从未和她一起生活过的亲生父母争夺监护权的对象或目标(object)。

23.A 法官裁决(ruled)Kimberly可以继续与其唯一熟悉的养父生活在一起,驳回亲生父母对Kimberly监护权的要求(claim)。

24.D 解析见上一题。

25.A 根据本句后的baby可判断此处为birth。

句意:Kimberly出生后不久就被抱错。

26.D 既然是mistakenly switched“被交叉抱错”,那么与之回家的自然是wrong parents,当然不会是亲生父母。

27.D 另外一个小孩在1988年生病夭折。

医学检查表明(showed)这个小孩不是Kimberly亲生父母的孩子,Kimberly才是。

Kimberly亲生父母由此与其养父展开了一场争夺监护权的斗争(battle)。

28.A 解析见上一题。

29.C 最后双方达成协议(agreed),养父保留监护权,亲生父母有探望(visiting)权。

30.C 解析见上一题。

31.A 但养父若认为亲生父母的探望使Kimberly受到了伤害(harmed),则该权利终止。

32.B 把Kimberly留给(leave)她的养父引起了激烈的讨论。

33.C 法官明确地说,Kimberly也有权为了(on)自己的利益提起诉讼(比如,假设在亲生父母的经济状况远好于养父的情况下)。

on one's behalf 为……的利益,代表。

34.A Kimberly并不仅仅(more than)是其亲生父母的私有财产。

more than不仅仅;no more than仅仅;not more than不超过,至多,不比……更;less than小于,少于,不超过,不到,决不,毫不。

35.C 血缘关系并不意味着亲生父母可以剥夺孩子全部的权利(rights)。

In addition, they needn't waste time dealing with the people they don't like and prevent themselves from being affected by those people. However, still others think differently. In their opinions,
