A large dinner party is being given in an up-country station by a colonial official and his wife. The guests are army and government officers and their wives, and an American naturalist.At one side of the long table, a spirited discussion springs up between a young girl and an army officer. The girl insists women have long outgrown the jumping-on-a-chair-at-the-sight-of-a-mouse era, and that they are not as anxious as their grandmothers were. The officer says they are, arguing women haven't the actual nerve control of men."A woman's reaction in any crisis," the officer says, "is to scream. And while a man may feel like it, he has that ounce more of control than a woman has."The American scientist does not join in the argument but sits and watches the faces of the other guests. As he stares, he sees a slight, though strange look of anxiety come over the face of the hostess. With a small gesture she summons the servant standing behind her chair. She whispers to him. The servant's eyes widen. He turns quickly and leaves the room. No one else sees this, nor the servant when he puts a bowl of milk on the balcony outside the glass doors.The American understands. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing. It is bait for a snake. He realizes there is a cobra in the room. The American's eyes move across the room but he sees nothing. He realizes the snake can only be in one place—under the table.His first reaction is to jump back and warn the others. But he knows any sudden movement will frighten the cobra and it will strike. He speaks quickly, the quality of his voice so arresting that it quietens everyone. "I want to know just what control everyone at this table has. I will count three hundred—that's five minutes —and not one of you is to move a single muscle. Now! Ready!"The 20 people sit like stone images while he counts. He is saying "…two hundred and eighty..." when, out of the corner of his eye, he sees the snake emerge and make for the bowl of milk. Four or five screams ring out as he jumps to slam shut the balcony doors."There is your proof!" the host says. "A man has just shown us real control.""Just a minute," the American says, turning to his hostess, "How did you know that cobra was in the room?"A faint smile comes across the woman's face as she replies. "Because it was lying across my foot."(1)What is the argument between the army officer and the young girl about?A.Whether women are afraid of mice.B.Whether men are calmer than women.C.Whether men are cleverer than women.D.Whether women would make suitable soldiers.(2)Why is the servant asked to put out some milk?A.To play a trick.B.To serve the guests.C.To attract the snake.D.To feed the hostess's pet.(3)Why does the scientist suggest the guests play a game?A.He doesn't want anyone to panic.B.He intends to test the officer's theory.C.He sees there was a snake in the room.D.He wants to entertain the other guests.(4)What does the author imply through the hostess's final statement?A.The army officer's opinion is wrong.B.The hostess understood the American's intention.C.The American was surprised by the snake's presence.D.The hostess has had previous experience dealing with snakes.6.Have you ever heard of a pawpaw(木瓜)? If not, do not feel bad. Most Americans do not know of the fruit, though it is native to the United States.Once, however, it was one of the most popular fruits in North America. Happily, those who love the pawpaw are trying to return it to its former position in American foods. A pawpaw is a tropical-like fruit that grows on trees found all over the eastern United States. It's also the largest fruit native to the US.It is similar to a typical mango in size. It has a dull green-colored skin, and a soft, almost-creamy orange inside. The pawpaw was not sold commercially in the past. The fruit requires a very special environment-low, wet areas that sometimes flood. It has a very short harvest season, from two to three weeks in September and October. In addition, the fruit is good to eat for only two to three days after harvesting. This makes it hard to sell anywhere distant from the pawpaw tree it came from.Planters are again growing pawpaw trees and harvesting the fruit. In several states farmers haveorganized "pawpaw festivals" to reintroduce people to the food. At such a festival in Maryland recently, farmers displayed different products made with pawpaws. There were pawpaw jams, pies, gelato(冰淇淋)and beer. Michael Judd helped organize the Maryland pawpaw festival.Farmers are trying to grow kinds of pawpaws that will be easier to ship and sell commercially. Donna and Jim Davis are pawpaw farmers in Westminster, Maryland. They said that they purchased their pawpaw trees in the 1990s and now sell the fruit at farmer's markets and online.(1)What can we know about the pawpaw according to the text?A.Its harvest season lasts long.B.It grows in Europe originally.C.It has already returned to its former position.D.It used to be well-received in North America.(2)What limited the pawpaw to being sold commercially in the past?A.It was unknown to the world.B.It's hard to grow, store and transport.C.It has similar taste with typical mangoes.D.The planters were unwilling to grow them for low profits.(3)Why do farmers hold "pawpaw festivals"?A.To show lots of delicious food to people.B.To make the pawpaw known to people again.C.To introduce people to a completely new fruit.D.To tell people the forgotten history about the fruit.(5)What is the best title for the text?A.The History of Pawpaws.B.How to Grow Pawpaws.C.The Comeback of Pawpaws.D.The Origin of Pawpaw Festival.四、七选五(本题共计 1 小题,共计5分)7. (5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。

But Picasso, the great Spanish painter, was like a man who had not yet found his own particular style of painting. He kept on struggling to find the perfect expression till his death in 1973.Some of Picasso’s paintings are rich, soft coloured and beautiful. Others are u gly and cruel and strange. But such paintings allow us to imagine things for ourselves. They force us to say to ourselves, “What does he see that makes him paint like that?” And we begin to look beneath the surface of the things we see.Picasso painted thousands of pictures in different styles. Sometimes he painted the natural look of things. Sometimes he seemed to break them apart and throw the pieces in our faces. He showed us what the mind knows as well as what the eye sees. At the age of 90 he remained as curious about the world as he had been when he was young. That is why people have called him “the youngest painter in the world”.1. In the passage the writer wants to tell us _________.A. about some pictures which have different stylesB. about Picass o‘s style of paintingC. it is not easy for a painter to find his own style2. The ugly, cruel and strange paintings by Picasso _________.A. make us try to notice something latent(潜在的) in the thingsB. allow us to ask questions about themC. force us to question anything we see3. The sentence “sometimes he seemed to break them apart and throw the pieces in our faces” means _________.A. sometimes he tore his pictures into piecesB. he broke something he was painting and threw them awayC. sometimes he showed some broken pictures to others4. Why have people called Picasso “the youngest painter in the world”?A. Because he looked young when he was old.B. Because he observed things with the eye and the mind.C. Because he never stopped painting even when he was old.5. W hat do you suppose the writer thinks of Picasso’s paintings?A. He doesn‘t understand some of them.B. He thinks some of them are valuable, some are not.C. He admires them, including the ugly ones.D. He doesn’t like some of them, but he admires the paintBAtomic(原子的) energy is a great discovery of last century and many people have played a part in its development. Albert Einstein told the world about its basic idea in his famous Theory of Relativity in 1905. As he and other scientists began to discover more about the atom, they learned that a great amount of energy could be released (释放)by splitting an atom. However, it is also necessary that this energy be controlled. If it were not, it could be very dangerous.Now atomic energy is used to move ships, and it may also prove useful for spaceships in fact, this new source(来源)of power has so many uses that it is almost impossible to imagine all the great changes it will bring into our lives.Some scientists say the world needn’t be afraid of a possible shortage(短缺)of coal, oil, natural gas or other sources of fuel for the future. They said that if these were used up, there would be enough of this type of energy to last forever.1. Atomic energy was discovered ______.A. in the nineteenth centuryB. in the twentieth centuryC. in the century before the lastD. in the century after the next2. Many people ____ the development of atomic energy.A. have taken part inB. have devoted themselves toC. have contributed a little toD. had added something to3.

Every summer,we would spend hours working in the garden, watering plants, picking ripe fruits, and harvesting vegetables. It was a time filled with laughter and joy.One day, my father decided to build a greenhouse in the garden. He believed that having a greenhouse would allow us to grow more plants throughout the year. With the help of my mother and me, he started to build it. It took us several days, but finally, the greenhouse was ready.The greenhouse was a great success. We were able to grow plants even in winter. It was amazing to see the flowers blooming and the vegetables growing in the cold season. However, we soon realized that the greenhouse needed constant care. The plants had to be watered regularly, and we had to clean the greenhouse to prevent pests and diseases.One day, I noticed that some of the plants in the greenhouse were not doing well. They were wilting and losing their leaves. I was worried and asked my father what was wrong. He checked the plants and explained that they were suffering from a lack of sunlight. The thick glass of the greenhouse blocked most of the sunlight from reaching the plants.To solve the problem, my father built a small window on the side of the greenhouse. The window allowed sunlight to enter the greenhouse, and the plants started to thrive again. From that day on, we made sure to keep the window open during the day to provide the plants with enough light.The greenhouse not only extended our growing season, but it also brought us closer as a family. We learned the importance of teamwork and hard work. Itwas a wonderful experience that I will always remember.Complete the following passage by choosing the most appropriate word or phrase from the options given below.I was worried and asked my father what was wrong. He checked the plants and (A) explained that they were suffering from a lack of sunlight. The thick glass of the greenhouse blocked most of the sunlight from reaching the plants.A. describedB. explainedC. worriedD. concernedAnswer: B. explained六、语言运用第二节 _ 语法填空(15分)Passage:In the early 1900s, (1) Northwest China was still a place of relative isolation.

Some of those spots that most guides mention are the following thrilling attractions.Victoria FallsVictoria Falls has always been considered to be an incredible place worth taking pictures of. There are a lot of spots that tourists love. Some of them are very dangerous for people. Yet the brave are ready to overcome their fear for a shot of lifetime.Arctic Cliff FaceA cliff does not make the most comfortable place for camping. Camping on the ground is far safer anyway. Despite all the inconvenience, the new trend is rapidly gaining popularity among climbing enthusiasts and outdoor addicts.Auckland’s Sky TowerAuckland’s Sky Tower is popular with bungee jumpers. Some celebrities, such as Beyonce, have already tried it, which proves that the place is not only safe but popular as well. The tower is 630 feet tall. At the top of the structure there is an observation deck. Trust us, most of those reading this article would prefer to stay on the ground rather than climb up this scary structure.North Yungas RoadThe Road of Death is the right name given to a road in Bolivia. Hundreds of people die here every year. The major cause of all those accidents is the road. The problem is that it is too narrow and badly maintained while here the traffic is heavier than anywhere else. Nevertheless, it seems like tourists will continue visiting this strange road despite its scary nickname.1. What is Victoria Falls famous for?A. Its narrow and badly maintained roadB. Its dangerous but attractive spots for taking picturesC. Its scary structureD. Its thrilling camping2. North Yungas Road is called “the Road of Death” because ________. .A. the traffic is the heaviestB. it is built on the edge of the rockC. each year many people lose their lives thereD. there is no necessary protection equipment3. If you like bungee jumping, you can go to ________. .A. Victoria FallsB. Arctic Cliff FaceC. Auckland’s Sky TowerD. North Yungas Road4. What do the four places have in common?A. They are a bit life-threatening.B. They all have beautiful scenery.C. They are popular with climbers.D. They have been visited by celebrities.BHow do young children learn to have good values? How can parents teach their children about the importance of kindness and patience? At a time more and more parents worry about the violent images (暴力形象) their children see on TV and on the Internet. So many parents are turning to fairy tales. They want to teach their children how to behave in society by this way.It is believed that fairy tales have a great influence on children because they describe the two sides of good and evil (邪恶) very clearly. When children hear the tales, they learn to care about others’ feelings. In each tale, they can see that there are many different kinds of people in the world and that we all have a choice about what kind of person we want to be. We can choose to do good actions, rather than bad ones, in our lives.What kind of values can children learn from fairy tales? In The Princess and the Pea (《豌豆公主》), a poorly dressed girl says she is a princess. Few people believe her, so she is given a difficult test. When she passes the test, we learn that her dream comes true because she stays true to herself. In the Little Mermaid (《小美人鱼》), the mermaid, who lives under the sea, wishes to be with the humans on land. Through her experiences, we learn about the importance of living with and accepting other cultures.Teaching values is probably the main reason for encouraging children to read fairy tales. These tales can teach children lessons about human relationships that have been accepted around the world for many centuries. This might be the reason why they have been around for so long and will not disappear any time soon.5. Why do fairy tales have a great influence on children?A. Because fairy tales can teach them how to make a choice.B. Because fairy tales can help them get higher scores at school.C. Because they can learn how to avoid most difficulties in their lives.D. Because good and evil are shown in a way they can easily understand.6.The Little Mermaid may be helpful when children ________.A. are given a difficult testB. make friends with foreignersC. wish to be a princess or princeD. are going to lie to their parents7.The author writes the text mainly to ________.A. introduce some fairy talesB. talk about the history of fairy tales.C. discuss how to improve human relationshipsD. show how fairy tales help children shape valuesCMetro Pocket GuideMetrorail (地铁)Each passenger needs a farecard to enter and go out.

Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor(固定) it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure,but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all —LUNCH! The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.12.What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to paragraph 1?A. Getting injured in his work.B. Efforts made in vain.C. Creatures forced out of their homes.D. Feeling uncertain about his future.13. Why was the author called to Muttontown?A.To look at a baby owl.B. To cure a young owl.C. To rescue a woman.D. To take care of a woman.14. What made the chick calm down?A. Its parents.B. A recording.C.Some food.D. A new nest.15. How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A.It’s unexpected.B. It’s humorous.C. It’s beautiful.D. It’s discouraging二、阅读七选五(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。

"The fight against cyberbullying is like a war, and in this war I am a fearless fighter," Sadat Rahman said during a ceremony on November 13 in The Hague, the Netherlands. He added, "If everybody keeps supporting me, then together we will win this battle against cyberbullying."Rahman developed a mobile phone application that provides education about online bullying and a way to report cases of it. He said he began his work on the project after hearing the story of a 15-year-old girl who took her own life as a result of cyberbullying. "I will not stop until we receive no more cases through the app," Rahman said at the ceremony.The award comes with a fund of over $118,000, which is invested by the Kids Rights Foundation. The group chooses projects to support causes that are closely linked to the winner's work.Past well-known winners of the prize include Pakistani human rights activist Malala Yousafzai and Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg. And the students who organized the March for Our Lives event in 2018 after a deadly mass shooting at their school in the American state of Florida also won the prize.Yousafzai praised Rahman's work during the ceremony. She spoke through video conferencing. "All children have the right to be protected from violence no matter if it is physical or mental, offline or online," she said. "Cyberbullying damages that right."(1)What does Sadat Rahman devote himself to?A.Battling online violence.B.Helping poor children.C.Being a brave fighter.D.Removing school bullying.(2)What caused Sadat Rahman to start his project?A.People's lack of education.B.His own experience of being bullied.C.A girl's death from cyberbullying.D.The wide use of mobile phone apps.(3)What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A.The March for Our Lives event.B.Human rights activists in the world.C.A horrible mass school shooting.D.Some previous winners of the prize.(4)What can we infer from Yousafzai's words?A.Rahman's efforts have paid off.B.Cyberbullying should be got rid of.C.All children have the right to fight against violence.D.Children are faced with physical and mental bullying.4.Americans have changed, at least when it comes to their apple preferences. The Red Delicious apple is likely to lose its title as the most popular apple this year, which it held for more than half a century. The U.S. Apple Association is projecting, that the Gala apple will usurp(夺取)the Red Delicious for the top spot.The group, which advocates on behalf of 7,500 apple growers and 400 companies in the apple business, predicted that the U. S. would grow 52.4 million Gala apples in 2018, up 5.9 percent from a year earlier. Red Delicious apple production is expected to fall 10.7 percent to 51.7 million.Consumers apparently like the Gala's "taste, texture(口感)and sweetness," the U.S. Apple Association said in a statement. "The rise in production of newer varieties of apples aimed at the fresh consumption domestic market has caused demand for the Red Delicious to decline." said Mark Seetin, the association's director of regulatory and industry affairs.The Granny Smith, Fuji and Honeycrisp apples are expected to rank third, fourth and fifth. The association predicted that within a year or two the Honeycrisp may pass the Granny Smith and Fuji, jumping into third place. The production of the apple rose 21.8 percent to 23.5 million this year. That puts it ahead of the Golden Delicious apple for the first time. The Honeycrisp was created by the University of Minnesota's apple breeding(培育)program only 21 years ago. It typically costs more than its competitors.Until the 1970s, Americans had only a few choices of apples. While the Golden Delicious offered a color contrast and the Granny Smith brought tartness(酸味)to the table, the Red Delicious was the star, heavily promoted by Washington state growers. Then wholesalers began looking for tastier varieties, finding them overseas in Japan, home to the Fuji, and New Zealand, which had the Braeburn and Gala.(1)How does the author prove Americans' preference for the Gala?A.By using statistics.B.By listing examples.C.By explaining causes.D.By presenting research findings.(2)What do we know about the Honeycrisp?A.It is sour in flavor.B.It is light in color.C.It is gaining popularity.D.It is losing its price advantage.(3)Which of the following comes from New Zealand?A.The Fuji.B.The Honeycrisp.C.The Braeburn.D.The Granny Smith.(4)What does the text mainly tell us?A.Why Americans eat apples from different countries.B.How different apples are becoming popular in America.C.How American farmers choose their apple growing types.D.Why the Red Delicious was Americans' favorite for 50 years.causal inferences rather than simply finding patterns.

If I put on your shoes,I would be angry tooB. If I wore your shoes,I would also be happy tooC. If I were in your situation,I would also be angryD.

They are concerned about others' life.C. They are dissatisfied with both their job and their life.D. They need a listener and understanding.23.According to the passage,what would you best say before getting away from acomplainer if you were a listener?______A.

What can I do for you?24.The author writes the passage mainly to ______ .A. teach readers how to deal with complainersB. teach readers to be patient with complainersC. help deal with complainers' problemsD. help readers listen to complaints betterBGrandparents Answer a Call As a thirdgeneration native of Brownsville,Texas,Mildred Garza never planned to move away.Even when her daughter and son asked her to move to San Antonio to help with their children,she politely refused.Only after a year of friendly discussion did Ms.Garza finally say yes.That was four years ago.Today all three generations regard the move as a success,giving them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities.No statistics show the number of grandparents like Garza who are moving closer to adult children and grandchildren.Yet there is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing.Even President Obama's motherinlaw,Marian Robinson,has agreed to leave Chicago and move into the White House to help care for her granddaughters.According to a study by grandparents.com,83 percent of the people said Mrs.Robinson's decision will influence grandparents in the American family.Twothirds believe more families will follow the example of Obama's family."In the 1960s we were all a little wild and couldn't get away from home far enough or fast enough to prove we could do it on our own,"says Christine Crosby,publisher of Grand,a magazine for grandparents."We now realize how important family is and how important it is to be near them,especially when you're raising children."Moving is not for everyone.Almost every grandparent wants to be with his or her grandchildren and is willing to make sacrifices,but sometimes it is wiser to say no and visit frequently instead.Having your grandchildren far away is hard,especially knowing your adult child is struggling,but giving up the life you know may be harder.25.Why was Garza's move a success?______A. It strengthened her family ties.B. It improved her living conditions.C. It enabled her to make more friends.D. It helped her know more new places.26.What was the reaction of the public to Mrs.Robinson's decision?______A. 17% expressed their support for it.B. Few people responded sympathetically.C. 83% believed it had a bad influence.D. The majority thought it was a trend.27.What did Crosby say about people in the 1960s?______A. They were unsure of themselves.B. They were eager to raise more children.C. They wanted to live away from their parents.D. They had little respect for their grandparents.28.What does the author suggest the grandparents do in the last paragraph?______A. Make decisions in the best interests of their own.B. Ask their children to pay more visits to them.C. Sacrifice for their struggling children.D. Get to know themselves better.五、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共30.0分)A Shelter for the Homeless Last summer I was a volunteer (志愿者)at a shelter for the homeless,a place for homeless people to sleep at night.I wasn't working that summer and was(29)only two classes in summer school,so I had some(30)time.Three nights a week,I(31)in the kitchen of the shelter along with four other volunteers.We planned and(32)for 45 people hot meals(33)vegetables,chicken,fish and fruit.The homeless people(34)this good food because many of them usually didn't eat well.I(35)this volunteer work,making(36)with the four volunteers in the kitchen.One was a very nice elderly housewife,one a movie actor,another a young teacher,and the other a college student,(37)me.I talked to a lot of the homeless peop le at the shelter.Their life stories(38)me with sympathy (同情).Some of them had(39)with alcohol (酒)or drugs while others only hadbad(40).One woman worked for almost 30 years for a small company,and(41)she lost her job.She looked for a(42)job,but couldn't find one,for she was too(43).She could do nothing but sell her furniture-sofas,chairs,and tables(44)she could pay for her food.The woman(45)on job hunting,but she(46)couldn't find one.She had no money for her(47)and had to sleep in her car.Then she had to sell her car.Alone,(48),and homeless,she finally came to the shelter.29.

soon as引导时间状语从句,"一…就…";B.as a result相当于副词,不能引导从句;意为:因此,结果是;C.in case可以引导条件状语从句,意为"万一,假使";还可以引导目的状语从句,其后接不希望的发生或防止发生的情况,意为"以免,以备,以防";D.so that可以引导目的状语从句,意为"以便,为了",后面接的是希望得到的结果;还可以引导结果状语从句,"所以,结果是";由于此处用来引导目的状语从句,表示希望得到的结果;故选:D.我想提前20分钟到达,以便我能有时间喝杯茶.本题考查从属连词so that引导目的状语从句的用法;做本题时,首先应熟练掌握各从属连词的意义及用法区别;其次应掌握in case与so that在引导目的状语从句时的区别.11.【答案】earlier【解析】答案:earlier.考查单词填空.句意:你开始工作越早,完成工作就越快.the +比较级+主谓,the +比较级+主谓是英语的固定句型"越…越…",所以填:earlier.你开始工作越早,完成工作就越快.单词填空在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意,在读懂短文的基础上,结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析.要解决好语法填空,离不开坚实的语法知识,有了坚实的语法知识才能对语言进行正确的分析和判断,从而答对题目.12.【答案】had been【解析】答案:had been.根据句意和结构可知这里使用as

Everybody knows I like new experiences.My uncle Tom arranged a tandem(双人的)1for my eighteenth birthday.I was excited and expected2to have several weeks to research skydiving online,but then I got a call from the skydiving company,asking me to come the next day.I couldn’t believe my3!Although we set off early to the airport,we were15minutes behind schedule because of the heavy traffic.The information and safety talk was already over and that did4me.Instead,I received a shorter version.The time of each person’s skydive depended on the time they’d registered,so for me that meant a long wait.I watched the first group of skydivers5,which was helpful.Twenty minutes later,I suddenly became uneasy when the first pair of skydivers6in the sky.My name was finally called.I pulled my7on and was introduced to my instructor.We walked towards the plane.The noise the plane made was enough to8even the most relaxed flyer.However,once my instructor had double checked our equipment,my fear disappeared.When we reached the required height,the door opened and we moved towards it.Sitting in the doorway of the plane was probably the9moment.Then we moved forwards until we fell out.I was aware of the cold wind on my face and could see incredible views around me.My instructor opened our parachute,and we went suddenly from free falling to slowly floating back down to the ground.It was a fantastic10that I’ll never forget.1.A.hike B.training C.skydive D.skateboarding2.A.nervously B.anxiously C.patiently D.happily3.A.luck B.creativity C.courage D.charm4.A.help B.bother C.touch D.attract5.A.talking peting C.preparing D.arriving6.A.rose B.hung C.danced D.appeared7.A.jumpsuit B.spacesuit C.swimwear D.sportswear8.A.injure B.worry fort D.impress9.A.scariest B.calmest C.saddest D.biggest10.A.trip B.party C.experience D.vacation第二节语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,共15分)阅读下列短文,根据短文内容填空。

ABig Space Events To Put In Your Calendar For2022MAY—CHINA*SPACE STATION GETS BIGGERMay will see the launch of a new module for the Tiangong space station,China's"Palace in the sky”.Its first core module,Tianhe was launched last April.The next module will be Wentian,a laboratory expected to launch between May and June.It will also serve as a backup core module and the place where future spacewalks from the taikonauts will take place.It will be followed by a second laboratory module,Mengtian,in August-September. JUNE—INDIA'S SPACECRAFT TAKES ITS FIRST FLIGHTISRO,the Indian Space Research Organization,has announced that Gaganyaan(which translates to Sky Craft)will have is first unscrewed fight in June.The craft is panned to be a key vehicle in the Indian Human Spaceflight Program and,all going well in this test;it will be followed by a crewed test next year.JULY—RUSSIA EYES THE MOONAGAINRussia's Luna program had many successes with landers,rovers,and even sample returns,and Luna25is expected to follow in that tradition according to Russian Space Agency,Roscomos.The mission this fine is just a lander expected to touch down near the Lunar South Pole with instruments designed to study the soil.The location might be a possible area of interest for a permanent base on the Moon.AUGUST—MORE LUNAR MISSIONSAugust will see the launch of the Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter,a panned lunar orbiter by the Korea Aerospace Research Institute(KARI).This will be the first Korean Lunar Mission,a technology demonstration for KARI.21.Which country will carry out multiple space tasks this year?A.China.B.India.C.Russia.D.Korea22.What do we know about Luna25?A.It will operate in low lunar orbit.B.It will take a land on the Moon.C.It will serve as a permanent base.D.It will take its first crewed flight.23.When is the first Korean Lunar Mission scheduled?A.In May.B.In June.C.In July.D.In AugustBA recent story in the Wall Street Journal newspaper looked at students who went to celebrated universities such asColumbia and New York University,for advanced degrees in subjects like art,film and even social work.Many of the students said they learned a lot.However,when they graduated,they were deep in debt and did not think they would find work that would let them pay back their loans.Students said they spoke with Columbia about the high cost of advanced arts degrees but never received a reasonable cation experts say the school is very wealthy,with large funds.The University,however, prefers to ask the students to pay the full cost.Kevin Carey is a higher education expert for New America,a public policy research center.He called master's degrees"a scam“in a conversation."Charging people a ton of money to go into any artistic career is often super problematic,he said.Castillo is an actor in New York City.He earned an MFA from The Actors Studio in New York City.Was his MFA worth the cost?"I do think it was worth it.I don't put a price tag on my education or my experience.I think it's sort of unfortunate that so many people take education for granted.Castillo said students who are thinking about an advanced degree in art should be sure they are doing it because they value the education,not because they want money or to be famous.Plazinska is a filmmaker in New York City.She attended graduate school both at Baylor University in Texas and at the University of Lowa.Arts graduate programs can help students meet and make friends with fellow artists with whom they can work throughout their careers.For school to be of value,students need to remember why they started making art in the beginning."It's just for the pure pleasure of creating and fulfilling myself this way.”24.What's the problem for students in famous universities for art advanced degrees?A.They can't take loans.B.They can't find any work.C.They may be heavily in debt.D.They may drop out of university.25.What does the underlined word"scam"in paragraph3mean?A.Way.B.Trick.C.Skill.D.Game.26.What does Castillo think of his MFA?A.He thinks highly of it.B.It's a waste of money.C.He takes it for granted.D.It brings him fame and money.27.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A.Arts graduate programs ensure a promising future.B.Students had better consider whether they can afford the fee.C.Arts graduate programs introduce celebrity artists to their students.D.Students should stick to their original purposes while learning.COxygen,I'm sure you'd agree,is pretty important for life on Earth.We breathe it in,our cells survive on it and without it,we hardly live.Basically,all multicellular life on Earth evolved over millions of years to make use of oxygen.But take a deep breath,because we need to talk about Henneguya salminicola,a tiny parasite(寄生虫)containing fewer than100cells that lives within the muscle tissue of salmon,a large fish with silver skin and pink flesh. The strange-looking parasite does not busy itself with such small matters as breathing oxygen.Nope,it seems that H.salminicola is the first multicellular animal we've found that survives without the stuff.“Aerobic respiration(有氧口乎吸)was thought to be commonly found in animals,but now we confirmed that this is not the case,“said Dorothee Huchon,a zoologist at Tel Aviv University in Israel,in a press release.Huchon and a team of international researchers examined and sequenced(排序)all of.salmincola’s genes in their study,published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.They found that the parasite,which is closely related to jellyfish,lacks the DNA machinery necessary to“breathe'Mt doesn't'have mitochondria(线粒体),often called the"powerhouse"of the cell,because they use oxygen to make energy.It's like a little factory inside almost all cells,and DNA detectives can find mitochondrial genes during sequencing.The discovery came as something of an accident for the team,who were examining the genome(the complete set of genes)of the species.When they went searching for the mitochondrial genes,they came up empty-handed."Our discovery shows that evolution can go in strange directions,Huchon said."Aerobic respiration is a major source of energy,and yet we found an animal that gave up this important pathway.”Some single-celled life forms have evolved the ability to survive without oxygen and do not have mitochondria, either.Plenty of bacteria can exist without oxygen at all.Instead of oxygen,they get their energy from fernentation(发酵)or use other molecules like iron.But how H.salminicola produces energy is still unclear.Huchon suggests it could draw oxygen from the cells in salmon or it could have evolved similar methods to those of single-celled organisms which scientists have documented in the past.28.What can we learn about Henneguya salminicola?A.It is an animal consisting of a cell.B.It can still survive without oxygen.C.It takes on a normal appearance.D.It has a longer life span than salmon.29.What is the main function of mitochondria?A.To make cells breathe fast.B.To help to produce oxygen.C.To provide energy for cells.D.To help cells absorb oxygen.30.How did Huchon probably feel about the discovery?A.Interested.B.Satisfied.C.Astonished.D.Frightened.31.What could be the most suitable title for the text?A.The natural evolution of animal cellsB.Different kinds of life forms on earthC.A research on single-celled organismsD.A creature that doesn't breathe oxygenDIn these days of information overload,it's never been more important to keep track of and back up your data.The problem is that digital storage doesn't last forever.Hard disks fail,phones tumble out of our pockets,and tablets are beaten up by grandchildren.This is why it is important to think carefully about your back-up strategy.Online back-ups are easier,arguably.All of the big tech players have online storage you can treat like your ownhard disk.Google has Google Drive,Apple has iCloud,and Microsoft has OneDrive.All you have to do is download the app for service you want to use to your computer or phone.Most Cloud storage apps even have the option to automatically upload your camera roll,so when you take new photos they511be sent up to the Cloud as soon as you connect to wifi.Offline storage is slightly trickier.Looking after Cloud files is Google5s or Microsoft's problem.But offline, figuring out what equipment to buy is something you need to figure out for yourself.The most obvious option is to buy a portable USB hard drive.Just plug it into your computer and you can copy important files to it.This is definitely a better approach than doing absolutely nothing,but there5s still a problem:if your back-up drive fails,you still lose everything.This is why if you5re serious about backing up-and you should be-I recommend the slightly pricier option of getting a device known as a NAS,which stands for""Network Attached Storage“and is basically a mini computer that you can plug directly into your wifi router.Some companies have devices available that contain only one hard drive, but I recommend buying one with space for at least two.This is because on most NAS models,two hard disks can work together to keep your files safe.Instead of appearing as separate hard disks,they can be combined using a feature called"RAID”,standing for"Redundant Array of Independent Disks”and it basically tells your NAS to treat the two hard disks inside it as though they were one drive,with the contents mirrored on both drives automatically.It means that if one of the two drives goes kaput,you still have a perfectly functioning mirror copy with all your files safely stored on it.The only thing considered undesirable is that a decent NAS tends to start at around£300,and that excludes the price of the hard disks themselves.But before you scream in horror,remember-this is for your most important files, to keep them safe.So,as annoying as it might sound,this is important.Just as you wouldn't leave your home with a risky boiler or drive a car with faulty brakes.It5s time to do the boring but important thing and spend the money to get your data backed up-before it is too late.32.Why are online back-ups easier?A.Because all of the big tech companies offer online storage free of charge.B.Because you just need to download the Cloud storage app for service you want.C.Because it is the service providers that are to blame if your Cloud files get lost.D.Because the data of your digital device is uploaded to the Cloud automatically.33.What can we learn about NAS?A.It's a device that you can plug into your computer.B.RAID is used to separate two hard disks inside NAS.C.It tends to be very costly even without hard disks.D.Most of them contain only one hard drive within.34.What does the underlined word"kaput”in the fourth paragraph probably mean?A.Tom.B.Broken.C.Lost.D.Shut.35.What's the main idea of the passage?A.Strategies for backing up data.B.Solutions to information overload.C.Problems concerning digital storage.D.Reasons for keeping track of your data.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AThe Top4Beaches on the East CoastNantucket,MassachusettsGreat point,at the easternmost end of the island of Nantucket,is one of the most secret beaches in the world.That’s because you need a four-wheel drive vehicle and a beach permit to get there.Once you do,you’ll find miles of beachfront and a historic lighthouse.Block Island,Rhode IslandAccessible by ferry,Block Island oozes New England charm.It’s worth the effort to get to Mohegan Bluffs,where you can experience a set of141wooden steps leading down to the sand. With clay cliffs and a view that reaches Montauk at the eastern tip of Long Island,this beach is especially unique.East Hampton,New YorkNamed the best beach in the county in2013,Main Beach in East Hampton is known for its wide stretch of sand plus a snack bar,bathrooms,and lockers.On-site parking is only available to village residents but there are free beach shuttles available.Jekyll Island,GeorgiaLocated off the coast of Georgia,this5,700-acre barrier island is famous for its nesting sea turtles and hermit crabs.Glory Beach got its name because producers of the1989movie Glory, featuring Matthew Broderick,Morgan Freeman,and Denzel Washington,built a long boardwalk to the beach that remains in place.1.Which has one of the most private beaches in the world?A.Jekyll Island,Georgia.B.Block Island,Rhode Island.C.Nantucket,Massachusetts.D.East Hampton,New York.2.What may attract the visitors to go to Mohegan Bluffs?A.Climbing the clay cliffs.B.Experiencing the warm sand.C.Admiring the scenery of Montauk.D.Walking along a set of141wooden steps.3.What can we learn about Jekyll Island according to the passage?A.Jekyll Island is famous for its nesting sea fishes and hermit crabs.B.Jekyll Island is located on the east coast of the United States.C.There is a wide boardwalk to Glory Beach on Jekyll Island.D.Glory Beach is named after the producers of the movie Glory.BIn the first term of college,Professor Kelly lectured us in his Acting1class about the importance of taking the business of acting seriously.As I prepare to take on my senior year,I think back on the first term and I consider my seriousness and my love for the art of theatre.I'm pleased to say that,for the most part,my determination remains as strong as ever.Even after I've learned about the difficulties and the heartbreak that go with working as an actor, I know that it is still the right path for me.Something Professor Kelly said in that first acting class has stuck with me through these last three years.He said,"Every actor chooses to act for their own reasons—personally I do it because I have to.I have to perform.It's who I am."For as long as I've been performing,I've wondered how to best describe why I do what I do.Professor Kelly answered that question for me that day.When I was little and first imagined what it would be like to be a real actor,I would imagine being known about by many people someday.However,I never actually wanted that.I act because no matter what is going on in my life,no matter how stressed I am with what's happening outside of or during practices,when I'm on stage,I'm home and I'm me.Many parents will feel worried about their children's choosing to be an actor.Some will be surprised.My parents are just exceptions.They knew from the start that nothing was going to keep me from doing what I love.4.What did Professor Kelly's words make the author realize?A.She did acting out of love.B.She really had a gift for acting.C.She would face many challenges.D.She must work hard to learn acting.5.What does the underlined word"that"in paragraph3refer to?A.Imagining being an actor.B.Being on stage.C.Becoming famous one day.D.Being devoted to theatre.6.How do the authors parents feel about her choice?A.Content.B.Sympathetic.C.Concerned.D.Disappointed.7.What is the author mainly talking about in the text?A.Why she chose acting.B.Who inspired her to act.C.How acting changed her life.D.What she learned about acting.CFrom the top of Mount Qomolangma to the bottom of the Mariana Trench,plastic continues to pollute the environment,and it creates a significant threat to all life forms on Earth.Despite knowing the effects of plastic pollution,we have not been able to ban the use of plastic products. Now,thanks to the invention of a17-year-old girl,Arora,we finally have a better choice.This plastic-like material is made from prawn(大虾)shells,and it breaks down1.5million times faster than most of the commercial plastic products we use today.The Australian teen first became aware of the impact of plastic waste on the environment when shopping with her mother.She wondered why her mother had to pay for the plastic bags. When asked,the cashier informed her how plastic hurts the planet and that the additional charge was there to encourage people not to use it.This inspired Arora to create a kind of plastic that would break down faster than the conventional one.But the journey of inventing“eco-friendly plastic”was not easy.She experimented with a number of organic materials such as cornflour and banana peels,both of which had to be ruled out because of their solubility(溶解性).One night,while having dinner,she noticed that the shells of prawns look plasticky.She immediately went to the lab to ter,she would describe that dinner as her“Eureka”moment.She extracted the material called“chitin”from the shells and then mixed it with an insoluble protein called“fibroin”,which is found in silk ing the combination of these twoorganic materials,Arora created a plastic-like material that breaks down completely within just33 days.Moreover,this plastic releases nitrogen when breaking down,which is why it can be used as plant fertilizer.Arora’s invention has caused a stir,and she has won a number of awards.As an inspiring young woman,Arora wants to make a difference in the world,and she wants to encourage other young people to follow their passion and make a positive difference however they can.8.What inspired Arora to create a kind of special plastic?A.A cashier’s words about paid plastic bags.B.Her determination to protect the prawns.C.A class about plastic’s impact on the planet.D.Her plan to save money on plastic products.9.What could be a“Eureka”moment?A.A moment of needing reflection.B.A moment of finding the truth.C.A moment of having sudden inspiration.D.A moment of enjoying the celebration.10.What can be known about the new plastic in paragraph4?A.It is made from non-organic materials.B.It can break down totally in a month.C.It can be used to help plants to grow.D.It is extracted from an insoluble protein.11.Which of the following can best describe Arora?A.Brave and clever.B.Creative and inspiring.C.Active and considerate.D.Humorous and friendly.DI once asked people what it meant to be a good listener.The typical response was a blank stare.Of course,technology plays a role.People find phone calls interrupting them,preferring text or wordless emoji.Besides,schools and colleges rarely offer classes or activities that teach careful listening.The loud unpleasant mixture of sounds of modem life also stops us from listening.Generally,listening goes beyond simply hearing what people say.It also involves pa)dngattention to how they say it and what they do while they are saying it,in what context,and how what they say is related to you.Ifs not about merely holding your peace while someone else holds forth.Quite the opposite.Good listeners ask good questions.They engage in exploring the topic,not to divert attention. There are curious questions like“Wouldn’t you agree...?”or“Don’t you think...?"These questions have strong tendencies.They will greatly influence the other person to change his or her view. And you,d better stay away from some personal questions like“What do you do for a living?”or “What part of town do you live in?"Just try to find out what excites people.Ask about the last movie they saw or for the story behind a piece of jewelry they're wearing.Also good are expansive questions,such as,“If you could spend a month,where would you go?”The reward of good listening will certainly be more interesting conversations.Researchers have found that attentive listeners receive more information from speakers,even when they don't ask any questions.We are,each of us,the sum of what we attend to in life.The gentle voice of a mother and the criticism of a boss both ultimately form and shape us.And to listen poorly, selectively or not at all limits your understanding of the world and prevents you from becoming the best you can be.12.What's the main idea of paragraph2?A.The great influence of technology.B.The factors causing fewer good listeners.C.The lack of classes to teach listening.D.The two opposite sides of modem life.13.Which question may a good listener ask?A.Isn’t it wise to choose a foreign university?B.Are you satisfied with your present salary?C.How can you afford such a costly house?D.What do you think of Eminem’s new song?14.What does the author probably agree with as for listening?A.Asking adequate questions is necessary.B.Keeping silent is of greater benefit to both sides.C.Listening attentively will be rewarded a great deal.D.Listening selectively will bring limitless possibilities.15.What can be the best title of the passage?A.The Art of Asking QuestionsB.Take Action Against TechnologyC.Bad Listening Leads to FailureD.Try to Be a Good Listener第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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,选项中有两项为多余选项.Basic first aid is a very valuable skill to have when going on a camping trip.____16____Cuts.With small cuts,you need to be careful to keep the area of the wound clean to avoid getting infected.____17____If the cut has not stopped bleeding,raise the wounded area above the heart and place pressure on the area to stop the bleeding.____18____It should be held in place with tape,but should not be too tight.Blisters.Blisters can turn a fun walk in the woods into a terrible experience.____19____ Change your bandage and socks and keep the blistered area clean.Make sure that you pack different size bandages and first aid cream.Sprains.If you have got a heavy pack on your shoulders,it can be very easy to twist your ankles.Walking sticks can be a traveller's friend.____20____A good ACE bandage should be packed in case of a sprained ankle.This can help fix the sprained area until you can get medical attention.After seeing the above dangers and treatments,it's also helpful to pack a small basic first aid kit for your trip.Make sure that you include items that are unique to you and fit your environment (bleeding,bruise,snake bite,etc.).A.Some climates can be very hot during the day and very cool at night.B.Treat the cut with first aid cream to prevent infection.C.They are an open wound and can get infected if not cared for.D.Below is a brief list of less-severe injuries that you can prepare for.E.They can help you keep balance on rough areas.F.Apply some cream and cover the wound with a dry,clean bandage.G.Wear comfortable shoes and socks during the trips.第二部分语言知识运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and some-times they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The result shows that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention in class.Contrary to what many people believe, if you don't eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.36. During the test, those who were tested were given________.A. no breakfast at allB. very rich breakfastC. little food for breakfastD. different foods or none37. The result of the test shows that______.A. breakfast has great effect on work and studiesB. breakfast has little to do with a person's workC. a person will work better if he has simple breakfastD. those working with brains should have much for breakfast38. The passage mentions that many people believe that if you don't eat breakfast, you will________.A. lose weightB. not lose or gain weightC. be healthierD. gain a lot of weight39. according to the passage, if a student does not eat breakfast,________.A. he will fall illB. he will fail to listen to his teacherC. he will not make progress in his studyD. his mind will work more slowlyBIf you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.With so many loopholes in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.40.The underlined words in this passage means to “_______”A . be ready to help others B. gain something at oth er’s expenseC. be a little ahead of othersD. make good use of one’s friends41.Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A .While taking a taxi in Finland ,you can get off without first paying your fare.B. in a big hotel in Finland, you can enjoy free meals if you’ re living in the hotel.C. the worker are always honest with their working hours.D. the bosses in Finland pay the employees according to registration of their working hours.42.We can learn from the passage that ________.A. in Finland, most taxi drivers will not charge you anythingB. there are many loopholes in everyday life in FinlandC. the Finnish society is of very high moral levelD. everyone in Finland is like a gentleman =, for they have faith in themselves43. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. A society with “Foolish” PeopleB. Life in FinlandC. What a lifeD. Honest accounts of the FinnsCThe morning for our snowmobiling (雪上汽车) adventure finally arrived, and we set off on the hour-and-a-half drive to the resort. A fresh powder had fallen the night before, and everything was frosted white. We couldn’t have asked for more perfect conditions. The sun sparkled (闪光) on the snow, and the trails (路线) were completely empty – not another person or snowmobile in sight. We were thrilled at being the only people for miles around … until we got going.As we drove through the deserted wilderness (荒野), my excitement became stone-cold fear. I had no idea what I was afraid of, or why I was afraid, but suddenly every turn, every hill, every steep (陡峭的) side of the mountain scared me to death. I kept picturing us crashing headlong into a tree or falling off the side of a drop.But after lunch thing changed. We were the only humans who had been there since the snowfall. The peaceful place, the incredible beauty of the landscape, and the almost sacred experience of sharing a mountain with the wildlife touched my very core (核心). My mind cleared and quieted and my muscles relaxed.As we drove the last leg of the run, I began to resent being afraid to drive. Deep down, I wanted to be in charge of the thing that scared me. It made me angry that fear was keeping me from something I really wanted to do. The day was coming to an end, and the resort was only a few miles away. I knew that if I didn’t take my chance now, I would regret it.I signaled for my husband to pull over. I wanted to drive, although my heart pounded (重击). I stared off slowly and felt the wind in my face. I smiled and sped up a little. I let out a “Yee-haw!” and went full out, taking my husband on the best ride of the day.We ended the day on that breathless, carefree, and I felt proud of myself – proud of overcoming my fear.44 . What can be concluded from the article?A. The author was confident as she was driving in the deserted wilderness.B. The author didn’t get worried until they started to drive through the deserted wild.C. Aware that she and her husband were the only people around, the author became anxious.D. The author was so nervous that she almost crashed into a big tree.45. According to the article, after lunch the author _____.A. gradually calmed downB. stopped to enjoy the beautiful sceneryC. saw some wildlife on the mountainD. was afraid to continue her journey46. The underlined word “resent” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _______.A. considerB. appreciateC. hateD. recognize47 .What is the story mainly about?A. What the author loves about snowmobiling.B. What difficulties the couple faced during their adventure.C. What interested the author during her time snowmobiling.D. How the author overcame her fear during her adventure.DReading is thought to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text. The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and gets answers. In the light of these he puts further questions, and so on.For most of the time this “conversation” goes on below the level of consciousness. At times, however, we become aware of it. This is usually when we are running into difficulties, when mismatch is occurring between our expectations and meaning. When successful matching is being experienced, our question of the text continues at the unconscious level.Different people converse with the text differently. Some stay very close to the words on the page, others take off imaginatively from the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The former represents a kind of comprehension which is written in the text. The latter represents higher levels of comprehension. The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers.There is another conversation which from our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not with what is read but with how it is read. We call this a “process” conversation as opposed to a “content” conversation. It is concerned not with meanin g but with the strategies we employ in reading. If we are an advanced reader our ability to hold a process conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our ability to hold a content conversation. It is just this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop our reading to meet the new demands being placed upon us by studying at a higher level.48.As a kind of conversation between the reader and the text, it becomes conscious only when ______.A The reader has trouble understanding what the author saysB the reader’s expectations agree with what is said in the textC The reader asks questions and gets answersD The reader understands a text very well49. At a lower level of comprehension, readers tend to ____.A. read a text slowlyB. read without thinking hardC. interpreting a text in their own wayD. concentrate on the meaning of words only50. according to the writer, _________is of great importance to readers.A. balance of lower and higher levels of comprehensionB. the reader’s expectation or the meaning of textC. conscious or unconscious level of comprehensionD. translating criticizing or analyzing a text51. If you want to develop our reading ability at an advanced level, we should _______.A. pay more attention to the content of a textsB. makes our reading process more consciousC. lean to use different ways in reading different textsD. take a critical attitude towards the writer’s ideasEAre some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a person's intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical (完全相同的) twins they willed very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.52. If a child is born with low intelligence, he can ______.A. Become a geniusB. Reach his intelligence limits in rich surroundingsC. Not reach his intelligence in his lifeD. Still become a genius if he should be given special education53. In the second paragraph, the underlined sentence mea ns “ if we ______.”A.take out two different personsB.pick any two personsC.choose two different personsD.choose two persons with different intelligence54. The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows ________.A. the part that birth playsB. the importance of their positionsC. the role of environment on intelligenceD. the importance of their intelligence55. The best title of the passage can be _______.A. Effect of educationB. SurroundingsC. IntelligenceD. Dependence on Environment书面表达;满分45分56.

Honest accounts of the FinnsCThe morning for our snowmobiling (雪上汽车) adventure finally arrived, and we set off on the hour-and-a-half drive to the resort. A fresh powder had fallen the night before, and everything was frosted white. We couldn’t have asked for more perfect conditions. The sun sparkled (闪光) on the snow, and the trails (路线) were completely empty – not another person or snowmobile in sight. We were thrilled at being the only people for miles around … until we got going.As we drove through the deserted wilderness (荒野), my excitement became stone-cold fear. I had no idea what I was afraid of, or why I was afraid, but suddenly every turn, every hill, every steep (陡峭的) side of the mountain scared me to death. I kept picturing us crashing headlong into a tree or falling off the side of a drop.But after lunch thing changed. We were the only humans who had been there since the snowfall. The peaceful place, the incredible beauty of the landscape, and the almost sacred experience of sharing a mountain with the wildlife touched my very core (核心). My mind cleared and quieted and my muscles relaxed.As we drove the last leg of the run, I began to resent being afraid to drive. Deep down, I wanted to be in charge of the thing that scared me. It made me angry that fear was keeping me from something I really wanted to do. The day was coming to an end, and the resort was only a few miles away. I knew that if I didn’t take my chance now, I would regret it.I signaled for my husband to pull over. I wanted to drive, although my heart pounded (重击). I stared off slowly and felt the wind in my face. I smiled and sped up a little. I let out a “Yee-haw!” and went full out, taking my husband on the best ride of the day.We ended the day on that breathless, carefree, and I felt proud of myself – proud of overcoming my fear.44 .

The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and gets answers. In the light of these he puts further questions, and so on.For most of the time this “conversation” goes on below the level of consciousness. At times, however, we become aware of it. This is usually when we are running into difficulties, when mismatch is occurring between our expectations and meaning. When successful matching is being experienced, our question of the text continues at the unconscious level.Different people converse with the text differently. Some stay very close to the words on the page, others take off imaginatively from the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The former represents a kind of comprehension which is written in the text. The latter represents higher levels of comprehension. The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers.There is another conversation which from our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not with what is read but with how it is read. We call this a “process” conversation as opposed to a “content” conversation. It is concerned not with meanin g but with the strategies we employ in reading. If we are an advanced reader our ability to hold a process conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our ability to hold a content conversation. It is just this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop our reading to meet the new demands being placed upon us by studying at a higher level.48.As a kind of conversation between the reader and the text, it becomes conscious only when ______.A The reader has trouble understanding what the author saysB the reader’s expectations agree with what is said in the textC The reader asks questions and gets answersD The reader understands a text very well49. At a lower level of comprehension, readers tend to ____.A. read a text slowlyB. read without thinking hardC. interpreting a text in their own wayD. concentrate on the meaning of words only50. according to the writer, _________is of great importance to readers.A. balance of lower and higher levels of comprehensionB. the reader’s expectation or the meaning of textC. conscious or unconscious level of comprehensionD. translating criticizing or analyzing a text51. If you want to develop our reading ability at an advanced level, we should _______.A. pay more attention to the content of a textsB. makes our reading process more consciousC. lean to use different ways in reading different textsD. take a critical attitude towards the writer’s ideasEAre some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a person's intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical (完全相同的) twins they willed very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.52. If a child is born with low intelligence, he can ______.A. Become a geniusB. Reach his intelligence limits in rich surroundingsC. Not reach his intelligence in his lifeD. Still become a genius if he should be given special education53.
