You can't be a positive person all of the time．How do you do it?" Jerry replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself, "Jerry, you have two choices today．You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood．' I choose to be in a good mood．Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it．I choose to learn from it．Every time someone comes to me complaining．I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life．I choose the positive side of life．The bottom line It's your choice how you live life．" I reflected on what Jerry said．Later．I left the restaurant industry to start my own business．We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life．Several years later．I heard that Jerry did something you are never supposed to do in a restaurant business he left the back door open one morning and was held up at gun point by three armed robbers．While trying to open the safe, he forgot thepassword, nervous．The robbers panicked and shot him．Luckily, Jerry was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local hospital．After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care．Jerry was released from the hospital with fragments（碎片）of the bullets still in his body．I saw Jerry about six months after the accident．When I asked him how he was．he replied．"The first thing that went through my mind was that I should have locked the back door," Jerry replied．"Then, as I lay on the floor．I remembered that I had two choices I could choose to live．or I could choose to die．I chose to live．" " Weren ' t you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked．Jerry continued, "The doctors and nurses were great．They kept telling me I was going to be fine．But when they wheeled me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared．I knew I needed to take action．""What did you do?" I asked．"Well, there was a big．strong nurse shouting questions at me．" said Jerry．"She asked if I was allergic （过敏的）to anything．"Yes．' I replied．The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply．I took a deep breath and yelled, "Bullets!' Over their laughter, I told them．"I am choosing to live．Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead．'"Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude．I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully．56．The author left Jerry's restaurant because he_____．A．wanted to start business on his ownB．was afraid of another robbery laterC．was not equal to the job any longerD．didn't get along well with others57．Why was Jerry shot?A．Because he left the back door open．B．Because he opened the safe too slowly．C．Because he pretended to forget the

doctors and nurses came with expressions of regret at his being shotD．He might not be saved by doctors and nurses．59．From the passage we can learn that Jerry _____．A．was no longer positive to his life after the operationB．was optimistic even when things were at their worstC．influenced all his colleagues in many waysD．was badly injured and stayed in hospital for six months60．Which of the following is conveyed in this article?A．Where there is life．there is hope．B．Everything comes to him who waits．C．Humor is the best medicine that creates miracle．D．Attitude determines everything．BAn old problem is getting new attention in the United State s—bullying．Recent cases included the tragic case of a fifteen-year-old girl whose family moved from Ireland．She hanged herself in Massachusetts in January following months of bullying．Her parents criticized her school for failing to protect her．Officials have brought criminal charges against severalteenagers．Judy Kaczynski is president of an anti-bullying group called Bully Police USA．Her daughter Tina was the victim of severe bullying starting in middle school in the state of Minnesota．She said, "Our daughter was a very outgoing child．She was a bubbly personality, very involved in all kinds of things, had lots of friends．And over a period of time her grades fell completely．She started having health issues．She couldn't sleep．She wasn't eating．She had terrible stomach pains．She started clenching （紧握，紧咬）her jaw and grinding her teeth at night．She didn't want to go to school．"Bullying is defined as negative behavior repeated over time against the same person．It can involve physical violence．Or it can be verba l—for example, insults or threats．Spreading lies about someone or excluding a person from a group is known as social or relational bullying．And now there is cyberbullying, which uses the Internet, e-mail or text messages．It has easy appeal for the bully because it does not involve face-to-face contact and it can be done at any time．The first serious research studies into bullying were done in Norway in the late 1970s．The latest government study in the United States was released last year．It found that about one-third of students aged twelve to eighteen were bullied at school．Susan Sweater is a psychologist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and co-director of the Bullying Research Network．She says schools should treat bullying as a mental health problem to get bullies and victims the help they need．She says bullying is connected to depression, anxiety and anti-social behavior, and bullies are often victims themselves．61．From the case of Tina, we can know that _____．A．bullying is rare B．victims suffered a lotC．schools are to blame D．personalities are related62．Which of the following is NOT bullying?A．To beat someone repeatedly．B．To call someone names．C．To isolate someone from friends．D．To refuse to help someone in need．63．Why is cyberbullying appealing to the bully?A．Because it can involve more people．B．Because it can create worse effects．C．Because it is more convenient．D．Because it can avoid cheating．64．According to Susan Sweater．_____．A．bullies are anti-socialB．bullies should give victims helpC．students are not equally treatedD．bullies themselves also need help65．Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A．Bullyin g—An Irish Girl Committed SuicideB．15-year-old Irish Girl Committed SuicideC．Cyberbullyin g—Taking Off in SchoolsD．How to Find Bullying among TeensC"The days when the management in Western companies presented gold watches to long-serving employees to thank them for loyal service is now just a memory．" says the Educational and Training Support Agency．This new development in the shape and movement of the workforce throughout Western businesses is partly a result of the way that layers of middle management are being removed, leaving more workers responsible for their own development．"Having workers take responsibility for their own development might be dramatic, but it is now the rule," says the Educational and Training Support Agency．"Today, not only are workers more mobile, they have to run to keep up with changes．" says the Government-founded agency．"It is no longer enough for a worker to gain a set of skills．Workers need the ability to react and get used to changes．" This new system is also being pushed along by the way that industry is looking to its workers to renew their own skills．In the United States, some companies have contracts （合同）which repair their employees to show regularly how they have their skills up to date．Contrary to this traditions of the past, employers in the West are now looking for autonomous learners as recruits, people who can develop their own continuing education beyond the school and university system．At the same time．businesses are developing the capacity for workers to take up autonomous learning on site in workplace, so that the skills and abilities of all workers in a business continue to improve and increase．"This．of course," says business theory．"will also improve the productivity （生产率）of the workers and therefore the profits of the company．"66．The management in western companies no longer presents gold watches to their employees because _____．A．they are not loyal to companiesB．other rewards replace gold watchesC．the way prove to be a failureD．serving a company for life is rare now67．The western workforce frequently changes their jobs partly because _____．A．hopping from job to job has become a new trendB．employees are expecting to have more experiences in their lifeC．workers have to take more responsibility for themselvesD．it is easy to complete themselves by doing so68．The passage seems to suggest that the present situation in society requires that workers shouldA．show more loyalty to their companiesB．try to develop their skills to fit in with changesC．go to college to have their skills up to dateD．be quick in changing their careers if there is the possibility69．The phrase "autonomous learner" in the last paragraph means _____．A．people who have received higher educationB．people who study hard themselvesC．people who learn things very quicklyD．people who continue their study beyond regular education70．Companies require their employee's development mainly because _____．A．it will finally help to bring more profits to the companyB．it can attract more workers who pay special attention to self-developmentC．it is good for the employees to develop their skillsD．it will make workers more responsible and loyal to the companyPart Iv Writing （45 marks）Section A （10 marks）Directions Read．the following passage．Fill．in the numbered, blanks by using the information from the passage．Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．Learning to improve your focus throughout the day can be a little difficult, only because we are talking about 18 to 24 hours, depending on the number of hours you sleep．However, if we break down your day into manageable time frames, it would make it much easier to learn to improve your focus．Focus, or concentration, is a skill that can be taught, so there are some exercises you can do to improve your focus．Start with easy exercises like staring at a picture on the wall for a few minutes without moving or talking to anyone．Once you learn how to block out your surroundings, your focus will improve．Other mind exercises you can do are internalizing．This is when you picture yourself in a desired situation, and then you work around your picture．Actors do this a lot to block out laughter, noise, or other distractions．An example of this would be to imagine you in a potentially stressful situation, like a singer in a concert．Try to play out the scene in your mind what you would do if different scenarios were to happen．This can actually be a lot of fun．and you learn how to improve your focus by concentrating on one thing only．If this sounds a little strange to you, you could try another strategy．Why not make lists? Make a list for the things you need to accomplish for the morning, another for the afternoon．and finally, another list for the evening．Study your lists carefully and see where you can move things around．For instance, if you have a dinner to arrange that evening, don't bunch up everything in the afternoon, right before the guests arrive．Divide your chores and errands between morning and afternoon, and give yourself an hour or two to relax before the guests arrive．Planning helps you focus．It will also not stress you out．Another way to improve your focus is to take breaks．If children have rest and lunch as their breaks, adults should also allow themselves the privilege of stopping for a drink or a 30 minute sitcom on TV．Of course, if you are working in an office, you are allowed coffee breaks．Use this time wisely．Don't spend it with your co-workers beside the coffee machine talking about problems in the office．Doing this would actually stress you and get you to lose focus on the things that need to be done．Your breaks should be as quiet as possible．Read a book．take a walk．or visit a daycare．Go and do anything that will give your brain a rest．The reason why we lose focus so easily is because we have too much on our minds．Of course, it could also be because you are bored with nothing to do all day．A good balance between a too relaxed brain and an overly active brain is a desirable situation to be in．Find your capacity to work, and try not to veer away too far from it on a daily basis．Improving your focusalso means knowing what you can do and being confident about doing it well．Focus is important but difficult to improve1．71 to improve your focusI ．Staring at picture．◆Staring at a wall picture 72 to learn to block out surroundingsⅡ．73 ．◆Concentrating on imagining a potentially stressful work place to block out 74Ⅲ．75 ．◆Dividing a day into 76 for chores and errands to be done．as well as arranging time for relaxationIV．Taking breaks．◆Wisely using time to have a drink, watch TV quietly instead of 77 ; just resting your brain2．78 for easily losing focus◆Having too much on minds◆79 all dayConclusion Keeping 80 between extremely relaxed brain and too active brain．Section B （10 marks）Directions Read．the following passage．Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit．Write your answers on your answer sheet．When I was 10 years old, my friend Sydney was diagnosed with a brain tumor．Sydney fought against it, but the tumor did not respond to treatment, and could not be surgically removed．The mass wrapped around her brain stem, the area of the brain that controls the vital functions of life such as breathing and blood pressure．Sydney died at the age of 11．After her death, I felt immense sadness and frustration about pediatric cancer．I decided to turn these negative emotions into positive actions．When I was 11 years old．I founded the Pink Polka Dots Guild（PPD）with two friends．The guild is named after Sydney s favorite color and pattern, which represents both the memory of my friend and the guild's positive approach．My goal has been to raise enough money to find a cure for brain cancer, which is the second most common cancer in children．Over the years, PPD has held fundraisers from lemonade stands to art expositions to golf tournaments．I have played a leading role in planning and organizing each PPD event．The very first Pink Polka Dots event, a garage sale．raised $ 9．000, and our most recent fundraiser, the fifth annual golf tournament, brought in over $ 73．000．The guild progressed faster than I ever anticipated．In five years, we have become 40 members strong, and raised almost half of a million dollars．I've been shocked by the public recognition that the guild has earned．PPD received an award from a U．S．Senator, spoke at a TED Conference, was featured in Teen Vogue, and appeared on The Note Berkus Show．Each of these honors has raised awareness and money for our cause．The initiative that I have taken has truly impacted the world of cancer research．PPD has provided start-up funding for scientific discoveries, such as "Tumor Paint", which illuminates cancerous cells so that surgeons can remove them with unprecedented accuracy．The discovery appeared in Time Magazine．, and will be reviewed by the Food & Drug Administration starting in early 2012．1 am extremely proud to have helped fund the research of this life-saving technology．Pink Polka Dots has inspired me to be an activist．My experience has taught me that with passion and dedication, it is possible to make a difference to the world．The determination that Pink Polka Dots sparked in me has carried over to all aspects of my life, making me a driven academic, a competitive debater and a dedicated volunteer．81．Why did the author feel sad and frustrated? （No more than 8 words）82．What was the author s purpose of founding PPD? （No more than 15 words）83．What achievement has PPD made in helping cancer research? （No more than 13 words）84．What did the author learn trom his own experience of founding PPD? （No more than 15 words）Section C （25 marks）Directions Write, an English composition according to the instructions given below．现今，中学生由于学业繁重几乎都没有在家承担任何家务责任。

2013年4月份百题精练（1）英语试题第三部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A,B,C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
AThe Peales were a famous family of American artists．Charles Willson Peale is best remembered for his portraits of leading figures of the American Revolution．He painted portraits of Franklin and Jefferson and over a dozen of George Washington．His life-size portrait of his sons Raphaelle and Titian was so realistic that George Washington reportedly once tipped his hat to the figures in the picture． Charles Willson Peale gave up painting in his middle age and devoted his life to the Peale museum, which he founded in Philadelphia．The world’s first popular museum of art and natural science mainly covered paintings by Peale and his family as well as displays of animals in their natural settings．Peale found the animals himself and found a method to make the exhibits more lifelike．The museum’s most popular display was the skeleton （骷髅） of a huge, extinct elephant, which Peale unearthed on a New York farm in 1801．Three of Peale’s seventeen children were also famous artists．Raphaelle Peale often painted still lives of flowers, fruit, and cheese．His brother Rembrandt studied under his father and painted portraits of many noted people, including one of George Washington．Another brother, Rubens Peale, painted mostly landscapes and portraits． James Peale, the brother of Charles Willson Peale, specialized in miniatures （小画像）．His daughter Sarah Miriam Peale was probably the first professional female portrait painter in America．56．The author mentions in Paragraph 1 that Washington tipped his hat to the figures in the painting to show that ________．A．Charles Willson Peale’s painting was very lifelikeB．Washington respected Charles Willson Peale’s workC．Washington was friendly with Raphaelle and Titian PealeD．the painting of the two brothers was very large57．The underlined word “unearthed” is closest in meaning to“ ______”．A．showed B．dug upC．invented D．looked over 58．Which of the following is NOT the child of Charles Willson Peale?A．Titian Peale．B．Rubens Peale．C．Raphaelle Peale．D．Sarah Miriam Peale．59．The author’s attitude toward the Peales is in general _______．A．puzzled B．excitedC．admiring D．disappointedBEveryone’s at it, even my neighbors．I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn’t done an eBay deal．So I decided to try my hand at onlineauction （网上拍卖）．Buying for beginners: Sign up on www．eBay．co．uk．Most items （e．g．tables, computers, and books）ready for auction will come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with “Buy It Now” and have a fixed price．You can buy these right away．If the item is being auctioned, you offer the highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids for you ．The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and asked if you would like to bid again．Auctions last up to 10 days, and when they finish you get an e-mail telling you whether you have won the item．How to pay: Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before placing a bid as you might not want to post a cheque or postal orders．The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card（信用卡）．Selling made simple: If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item．I followed my friends’ advice and put up the items I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starting on a Thursday．This way buyers had two weekends to bid．The big things in life: It’s easy to post a small item, but furniture is a big part of eBay and this has to be collected or sent by deliverymen．Check the ways of delivery before you bid．60．What is the passage mainly about?A．How to make payment online．B．Ways of making delivery online．C．How to use an online-auction system．D．Advantages of an online auction system．61．After bidding for an item, a buyer________________．A．can’t buy other items any moreB．should make payment immediatelyC．must give your credit card to the sellerD．has chances to make higher bids62．The easiest way of making payment mentioned in the passage is___________．A．by sending the money to the sellerB．through a local bank systemC．through an online payment systemD．by paying the delivery man directlyCWhile surfing television channels over the weekend，a scene from a family classic of last year portraying the now-so-familiar sorry state of retired parents being ill-treated by their children and families caught my attention．I wondered why the description of this relationship had not changed much over the many years! Even though the same movies and soaps accurately capture several other social changes around us — from value systems to new found economic freedom to the importance of technology and the changing approach to consumerism （消费主义）— are these creative effortsfar from the truth in telling us that an average retiree is still struggling?Look around and you will agree that the post-retired lifestyle for an ex-salaried class people is often a pale shadow of their last working years．Even self employed people, who have handed over the responsibility to the next generation, are no exception．Did the average middle class not save enough through his working years?Socially, we already know that the Indians are taught the benefits of start saving early on in life．Household savings data supports this social behavior — India has the highest rates of savings among various economies and is far ahead of the west．Yet, tragically, a lifetime of savings does not seem to provide enough for a comfortable retirement!A closer look at the pattern of what we do with our financial savings may tell us a bit more．Over half of households’ financial savings is put into a “safe” deposit, followed by large portions in insurance, pension, provident funds（福利基金）and the rest in physical currency．Less than a tenth goes into “risky” assets （资产） like stocks．While there might be nothing, in particular, worrisome in this investment pool, one has to consider inflation （通货膨胀）．The real value of savings, over a few decades, may actually be lower than the starting point．63．What had not changed much over the many years according to the passage?A．Value systems B．The poor situation of retireesC．Economic freedom D．Approach to consumerism64．Which of the following statements about saving in India is right?A．the concept of saving has been well received by Indians．B．the amount of the savings ranks number one across the world．C．long-standing savings can help the retirees live a care-free life．D．saving early can not benefit people at all．65．What can be inferred according to the last paragraph?A．Half of the financial savings in stocks can be accepted．B．The real value of saving must be lowered in a few years．C．A loss of savings may hardly be avoided．D．Inflation can be avoided on condition that you consume instead of saving．66．What’s the best title of the text?A．Retirees being treated unfairlyB．Is saving enoughC．Saving in IndiaD．How to deal with savingDLanguage learning begins with listening．Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners．Most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word “obey” is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child ．Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises．Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties．It is agreed that they enjoy makingnoises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on．But since these can’t be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language．It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store．This self-imitation leads on to deliberate imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people．The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech．It is a problem we need to get our teeth into．The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the world．Thus the use at seven months of “mama” as a gree ting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at other times for

Since high school, I’ve sought to understand the heart, the mind, and the soul of the gifted per son. I’ve spent nearly five decades trying to help others recog nize, understand and support giftedness in their children, stud ents, customers, loved ones and themselves.What’s giftedness all about? Certainly, people who rise to star dom(明星地位)in childhood or adult life are often gifted, but most gifted pe ople don’t seek or achieve fame. Many gifted children are hidi ng—trying to remain unnoticed by pretending to be just like everyb ody else. Many gifted adults are in the helping professions be cause they feel the need to ease the suffering of others. But there’re certain qualities of the gifted people that transcend(超越) age, nationality, socio-economic status, occupations, interests or talent domains(领域).Gifted people not only think differently, but feel differently. Gift edness is a different way of being, and these differences may affect them throughout all the life. There’s so much confusion about the meaning of this term that the most gifted people rej ect the concept of being gifted. Here’s the most important tip I can give you. If you’re a gifted person, the greatest gift you c an give to your parents, children, students, loved ones and yo urself is the appreciation of your own giftedness. Appreciation begins with recognition.Your first job is to understand yourself, and you'll be a good ro le model for others who need your help. Consciousness of the meaning of giftedness is oxygen to the soul. You need to put on your own oxygen mask before you help others put on their s. Each person’s awareness helps the world become more co nscious. Little by little, giftedness will come out of the closet al l over the globe, and we’ll be able to put to rest forever the sh ame that has for too long accompanied the experience of bein g gifted. We’re skilled at working with the entire range of giftedness.61. Which one is NOT the author seeking for since high schoo l?A. Helping the gifted find their special qualities．B. Understanding the heart, the mind, and the soul of t he gifted person.C. Helping others recognize, understand and support g iftedness in people.D. Seeking popularity among the people who rise to st ardom in childhood or adult life.62. Why do some gifted children hide their giftedness?A. Because they are not really gifted.B. Because they don’t want to be known to others.C. Because they want to be famous just like everybody else.D. Because they don’t have consciousness of the meaning of giftedness.63. You can give your greatest gift to the following ones exce pt ___________.A. your neighborB. the ones you loveC. the persons you teachD. your dire ct and close relatives64. Which of the following is the first step to the gifted people’s success?A. Others’ awareness.B. Their recognitio n of others.C. Their understanding of themselves.D. Their appreciation of themselves.65. What’s the general idea of the passage?A. The meaning of giftedness.B. Helping the gift ed people.C. The lifestyles of gifted people.D. The entire ran ge of giftedness.CAlaska’s Arctic lakes now freeze later and melt earlier in th e year than in 1950，making them lose water easily through evaporation(蒸发)and possibly adding to local warming，a new study finds. The winter ice season near Barrow，Alaska，is much shorter in this year than that in 1950, researchers rep orted in the journal The Cryosphere.Lake ice is also thinner each winter. The scientists surveyed a lot of lakes on the North Slope, the tundra-covered (冻土覆盖的) region where permafrost (timelessly frozen ground) and s hallow lakes dominate the area. In 2011，the lake ice was 38 percent thinner than in 1950, and 22 perc ent fewer lakes froze through to their bottoms．“When we saw the actual numbers we were shocked at how d ramatic the change has been,” lead study author Cristina Sur du, of the University of Waterloo in , said in a statement. Surd u and her co-authors analyzed the changes in lake-ice thickness and ice cover with satellite images and climate model simulations (模拟) (satellite images are only available from 1991).The climate models suggest the Arctic lakes froze almost six days later and broke up about 18 days earlier in the winter of 2011 compared with the winter of 1950. “The changes in ice a nd the shortened winter affect Northern communities that dep end on ice roads to transport goods,” Surdu said. For exampl e, every winter, oil companies build roads over frozen lakes to carry supplies to Prudhoe Bay.“The dramatic changes in lake ice may also contribute to furth er warming of the entire region, because open water on lakes contributes to warmer air temperatures, even if to a lesser extent than open seawater, ” Surdu said. The Arctic is warming t wice as fast as the rest of the planet，for reasons that may include its layered atmosphere, which ke eps heat, and the loss of sea ice and snow cover, which helps reflect the sun’s energy.66. What does paragraph 1 mainly tell us?A. Alaska’s Arctic 1akes now freeze earlier and melt 1ater．B. Alaska’s local warming is reducing sharply．C. The winter ice season of ’s Arctic lakes shortens.D. ’s Arctic lakes hold more flesh water than before．67. What can we learn from the passage?A. Climate changes were much more obvious in 2011．B. Permafrost melts gradually in these years．C. Lake ice was thicker in 2011 than that in 1950．D. A great number of lakes spread across North Slope ．68. According to the passage，the great changes of Alaska’s Arctic lakes _____________．A. are totally beyond Surdu’s expectationsB. are completely within Surdu’s expectationsC. come as no surprise to Surdu and her co-authorsD. come as great excitement to Surdu69. The winter ice seasons of Arctic lakes in 2011 was ______ _?A. 6 days shorter than that in 1950.B. 12 days shorter than that in 1950．C. 18 days shorter than that in 1950.D. 24 days shorter than that in 1950．70. The reasons why the Arctic becomes much warmer are d ue to _______?① its layered atmosphere ② the loss of snow cover③ sea water evaporation ④ the loss of sea i ceA. ①③④B. ①②④C. ②③④D. ①②③Part Ⅳ Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbere d blanks by using theinformation from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer .The pressing issue of global warming has made it necessary f or us to look at other renewable sources of energy. Wind ener gy is a renewable source of energy and doesn’t produce toxic by-products(有毒的副产品), as is the case with fossil fuels. However, it still has bad si de.The biggest issue concerning wind energy is its unreliability. T here can be periods when adequate electricity is produced on account of strong wind, and there can also be periods of lull(间歇), where no electricity can be produced for days, because of the absence of wind.As discussed before, due to the lull nature of wind energy, it n eeds to be stored, or used as a substitute for the conventional sources of energy. However, storing it is quite expensive, an d countries have to rely on fossil-fuel factories to meet their energy needs.The claim that this energy will lead to creation of more jobs is n’t accepted by most people. They point out to the fact that a wind power factory needs lots of workers only during its construction, and once it is built, it needs only a few maintenance w orkers(维修工).There have been reports in the past about the danger that win dmills(风车) pose to birds. Due to the height of the windmills, birds are often on a collision course with them, and a large number of d eaths have occurred due to this reason.Installation(安装) of windmills has faced violent opposition from people livin g in nearby areas, where the wind power factories have been suggested. One of the main reasons for their opposition is tha t, windmills do cause some level of noise pollution.Wind energy certainly is one of the bright hopes for our future. Although wind energy has certain limitations, there is no reas on why we should give up on this renewable and clean source of energy, and stop the efforts from making it to its full potenti al.Title Wind energyIntroducti on Wind is a kind of energy which is 71___________ _____ and clean72______ _It is not 73__________.Sometimes wind is 74__________when humans need it.It is expensive to store it.Human have to spend 75________in storing wind energy.Thus many countries still depend on fossil-fuel factories.It can’t offer 76__________When a wind plant is being 77___________ many workers are neededAfter that, only a few workers are needed in fact.It is 78_______ to birds.Windmills kill a great number of birdsbecause of collision.It will cause noise pollution.Many people don’t agree windmills should be set up near their neighborhood because they are 79_________.Conclusi on Although wind energy has many disadvantages, human still should make efforts to 80___________ ___of it in the future.Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage, Answer the questi ons according to theinformation given in the passage.People in the have a special camp to go to this summer. Tho se who are tired of the social media and want to unplug(不插电) for a couple of days can consider going to a fast-growing summer camp three hours outside of San Francisco. Checking into the camp involves handing over your personal electronics to volunteers in white lab coats.now in its second year, offers attendees a break from the noise of social media. The rules of this camp are clear: No sh op talk, no alcohol, and most importantly, no phones, comput ers, tablets or watches.Co-founder Levi Felix has stressed it is not just an experience for tech workers, although current and former Silicon Valley(硅谷) employees make up the biggest part of the attendees. Thi s year, campers ranged from college graduates to retirees. In recent years, the “unplugging movement” came into vog ue(流行). In other words, it really received more and more popularity------although it has been criticized by the press for causing “postm odern techno-anxiety” and failing to recognize the positive impacts of techn ology. Each March, thousands of people unplug from their de vices for 24 hours, as part of an event organized by the nonpr ofit organization Reboot.Tech-free getaway options like Camp Grounded are growing in the . With no iPhones or computers to distract them, campers at participate in all kinds of interesting activities featuring yoga, l aughing contests and writing courses. But for many of the part icipants, the most exciting activity is conversation. Campers a dopt nicknames and are forbidden to talk about work or disclo sing their age.Felix says that the aim of the camp is not to break away fro m the modern society “We still live in the modern society. It’s not about not using technology. It’s about being in control of u sing it and it’s all about what you do when the devices are gon e.”81.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.As a famous saying goes, "Reading makes a full man, conference a ready man, and writing an exact man." I like reading very much. When I 36 a good essay in reading newspapers or magazines, I often feel like cutting and keeping it. However, just as I am about to do so, I find the article on the 37 side is as much interesting. It may be a discussion of the way to keep in good health, or advice about how to be oneself in society. If I cut the front essay, the opposite one will 38 damage, leaving out half of it or keeping the next without the title. As a result, the scissors would stay before they start, or halfway done when I find out the result to my 39 .Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time, both worthy your attention. You can only take up one of them, the other has to wait or be 40 . But you know the future is 41 —the changed situation may not allow you to do what is left behind. Thus you are caught in a dilemma and feel sad. why should nice opportunities and 42 ideas gather around all at once? It may happen that your life changes dramatically on your preference of one choice to the other.In fact that is what life is like: we are often given with the two choices which are both 43 like newspaper cutting. It often occurs that our attention is drawn to one thing only after we take up another. The former may be more important than the latter and 44 a divided mind. I still remember a philosopher's remarks: "When one door shuts, another opens." So a 45 choice may not be a bad one.Whatever we do in our lifetime, and whenever life's storm makes us go, there must be something we can 46 , some shore we can land on. Don't forget there is always a(n) 47 door for everyone. While the front door is closed, there must be another open for you.36. A. come about B. come out C. come across D. come up37. A. next B. opposite C. back D. front38. A. suffer B. cause C. receive D. get39. A. surprise B. disappointment C. excitement D. regret40. A. given up B. let out C. held on D. put away41.

A. preferable B. alternative C. comfortable D. attractiveSection C (12 marks)Directions: Complete the following passage by filling in each blank with one word that best fits the context.In our town there once was an excellent teacher. He always wrote the number "two"and "four" 48 the blackboard in the first class to his new students. After that, he would ask his students 49 the answer was.Every time he raised this question, some of his students said "six" was the key 50 others hold that "two" was more proper and some of them chose "eight" as 51 answer; moreover, there were still some students 52 were just sitting at their seats without a word.53 the students were discussing the issue, the teacher always sighed and said to the students, " 54 is no use debating because all of you did not notice the key point: what is exactly the question? Are those two numbers to be added, subtracted or be acquired to do some other calculations? Without what the question is, how can you get a 55 answer?"Part ⅢReading Comprehension (30 marks)Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AWalk into the California home of Anne Belles and her husband, Jim Silcock, and you'll see kids everywhere playing video games, doing homework, and getting ready for dinner. There are 30 boys in this house and Anne Belles is their mom. Belles has wanted to help children since she was a kid. "I was intrigued by the movie Oliver! in the 1960s, a musical based on the Charles Dickens novel Oliver Twist. I told my mom, 'That's what I want to do.' "Anne's boys are from 3 to 25 years old. All of them are challenged in some way. "They each have special needs —physically, mentally, or at school," says Belles.Every day, a small army of childcare workers, nurses, and volunteers comes in to help cook and clean, wash 30 loads of laundry a day, and take care of health needs.To find out how much such a large family costs, we followed Jim Silcock to the grocery store. He spent $880 on food for one week. Every month they spend $2,000 to run five cars, $15,000 for the fourteen paid helpers, and more than $10,000 on medical costs. The family receives $26,000 a month from the state government, and makes some money from a family business. All the money is spent on the children; having new clothes and fancy cars isn't important to Belles.How do the kids feel? 17-year-old Anthony says, "The family is there whenever I need something ... I feel like I am loved.""Everything I'm doing now is what I wanted to happen in my life," says Anne Belles. "So, no regrets; this is perfect. I couldn't ask for it to be better—maybe a bigger house, you know, would be nice."56. The underlined word "intrigued" in the first paragraph means "______".A. fooledB. attractedC.frightenedD. disappointed57. The boys Anne has raised ______.A. are all ready to accept a challengeB. all like Oliver TwistC. all have disabilitiesD. are all teenagers58. For Anne and her husband, raising 30 boys ______.A. is their dreamB. is no small taskC. is a piece of cakeD. is their family tradition59. What do 17-year-old Anthony's words mean?A. He is satisfied with his family.B. He has learned how to love others.C. He wants to get more care and love.D. He is still looking for his own family.60. What do we know about Anne and her husband?A. They are kind-hearted and selfless.B. They are tired of looking after so many boys.C. They want to improve their own living condition.D. They've always regretted not having their own baby.BA. can easily access restroomsB. cannot take any personal belongingsC. can go inside the biggest planes in the world.D. can stay there as long as you like during the day.62.

It has different scenes in different seasons.D. It has different activities in different seasons.63. The Washington State Capitol is open to the public ______.A. every day except at the weekend.B. every other day except on state holidays.C. every workday except on state holidays.D. every day except on national holidays.64. Where would you most probably go if you want a picnic along the river?A. The Boeing Everett Factory.B. The Enchanted Forest.C. The Washington State Capitol.D. Riverfront Park.65. The passage is written to ______.A. prove that Seattle has many famous attractionsB. explain why Seattle is worth a visit for a familyC. introduce four good places in Seattle for a day tripD. introduce four places for a family to spend time togetherCWhat if you never needed to eat again? Imagine that all you needed was a special formula (配方) that would provide your body with all the nutrients (营养) it needed to survive. Well, computer programmer Rob Rhinehart has created just such a thing called Soylent —and it's now shipping to adventurous eaters.Rhinehart invented Soylent after becoming frustrated with the high price of foods and the time he spent making meals. He has shown the Soylent development process on his blog. "I guess that the body doesn't need food itself, only the chemicals it has. What if I ate only the ingredients the body uses for energy?" he wrote in a blog post titled "How I Stopped Eating Food."Forty different chemicals make up his formula, which is made up of packaged powder and a bottle of oil. Soylent drinkers mix these two parts with water. After experimenting with the formula, Rhinehart and his roommates made a plan to sell it. They raised $3,500,000 to start a company and put Soylent into production. Now the company sells bags of the formula on its website.At its lowest price, Soylent costs about $3 a meal. This is much cheaper than some solid foods. Soylent also does not spoil (变质) as quickly as many fresh foods. For these reasons, Rhinehart thinks Soylent could someday become a solution to world hunger.The young inventor has been living off of Soylent for more than a year. But he does still eat some solid foods. Such as when he goes to restaurants with friends.However, before you follow Rhinehart's lead and forsake solid foods completely, you should talk to your doctor. Many medical professionals don't think people should replace all of their meals with a powdered formula. They argue that human beings need a well-balanced diet to be healthy. Solid foods may have important nutritional benefits that cannot be got from formulas like Soylent.66. The original purpose of Rhinehart creating Soylent was to ______.A. save time and money on foodsB. solve the problem of world hungerC. provide his body with more nutrientsD. realize his dream of running a company67. We can infer from the passage that Soylent ______.A. can be bought in the supermarket nowB. may cure patients of some ordinary diseasesC. can be preserved for a longer time than some fresh foodsD. has been delivered to poor countries to solve hunger problem68. The underlined word "forsake" in the last paragragh can be replaced by ______.A. turn toB. give upC. try outD. prepare for69. Many medical professionals' attitude towards the use of Soylent is ______.A. hopefulB. favorableC. worriedD. surprised70. In which part of a newspaper can you probably find this text?A. Business.B. Education.C. Food & Health.D.Popular science.Part ⅣWriting (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.As a teenager, do you want to grow taller naturally? If yes, firstly, you must have a good sleep at night. So go to bed early and try to get at least 7~8 hours of sleep each night. Research has proved that sleeping early is good for health. Even if you get 8 hours of sleep, it won't be beneficial if you have the habit of going to bed late at night. Thus, try to sleep before 10 p.m. each night and you'll sleep much better.Secondly, you need to be physically active. Unluckily, many teenagers these days spend hourssitting in front of computers, failing to take part in enough physical activities. Studies have shown that teenagers who often run, cycle or swim tend to grow taller than those who are inactive. What's more, regular stretching exercises, especially early in the morning, and regular breathing exercises can also prove helpful in encouraging height growth.Thirdly, healthy eating is also a must. So, don't eat unhealthy junk food because it can cause health problems and slow down the proper growth of the body. Instead, form a habit of eating lots of fruits and vegetables as well as eating a lot of nuts, fish, and milk.Lastly, you must keep a proper posture while standing, sitting, walking or doing any work. If you have a poor posture, a part of your back appears too much curved in one direction, which is bad for your growth. Luckily, there are many exercises to correct the posture. If you do them in a regular way, the posture can be easily corrected. You have to be careful throughout the day that you aren't going back to your old ways of standing or sitting.Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage and answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.In many businesses, computers have largely replaced paperwork, because they are fast, flexible, and do not make mistakes. As one banker said, "Unlike humans, computers never have a bad day." And they are honest. Many banks advertise that their transactions are "Untouched by human hands" and therefore safe from human temptation. Obviously, computers have no reason to steal money. But they also have no conscience, and the growing number of computer crimes shows they can be used to steal.Computer criminals don't use guns. And even if they are caught, it is hard to punish them because there are no witness and often no evidence. A computer cannot remember who used it: it simply does what it is told. The head teller at a New York bank used a computer to steal more than one and a half billion dollars in just four years. No one noticed this theft because he moved the money from one account to another. Each time a customer he had robbed questioned the balance in his account, the teller claimed a computer error, then replaced the missing money from someone else's account. This man was caught only because he was a gambler. When the police broke up an illegal gambling operation, his name was in the records.Some employees use the computer's power to get revenge on their employers they considerunfair. Recently, a large insurance company fired its computer-tape librarian for reasons that involved her personal rather than her professional life. She was given thirty days notice. In those thirty days, she erased all the firm's computerized records.Most computer criminals have been minor employees. Now police wonder if this is "the tip of the iceberg". As one official says, "I have the feeling that there is more crime out there than we are catching. What we are seeing now is all so poorly done. I wonder what the real experts are doing —the ones who know how a computer works."81. Why are transactions in many banks claimed to be safe? (No more than 7 words)_________________________________________________________________________82. How did the head teller at the New York bank covered up his crime? (No more than 8 words)_________________________________________________________________________83. According to the last paragraph, what kind of criminals are the police unable to catch?(No more than 2 words)_________________________________________________________________________84. What is the passage mainly about? (No more than 2 words)_________________________________________________________________________Section C (25 marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below.假设你的学校正在组织一次征文赛，请以"________ makes the world more beautiful"为题，写一篇英语短文。

2015年4月份百题精练（1）英语试题第二部分阅读理解（共20小题;每小题2分，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A. B. C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AIn 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernadino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue(烤肉) restaurant, then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new idea: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity(一致性), for the brothers had developed a strict routine(程序) for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became surprisingly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the special attraction of the brothers’ fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise(特许经营) other copies of their restaurants. The agreement included the right to duplicate(复制) the menu, the equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches(拱门).Today McDonald’s is really a household name. In 1976, McDonald’s had over $ l billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the most surprising success stories in modern American business history.56. This passage mainly talks about _______.A. the development of fast food servicesB. how McDonald’s became a billion-dollar businessC. the business careers of Mac and Dick McDonaldD. Ray Kroc’s business talent57. Mac and Dick managed all of the following businesses except _______.A. a drive-inB. a theaterC. a cinemaD. a barbecue restaurant58. We may infer from this passage that _______.A. Mac and Dick McDonald never became wealthy for they sold their idea to Kroc.B. the place the McDonalds chose was the only source of the great popularity of their drive-inC. forty years ago there were lots of fast-food restaurantsD. Ray Kroc was a good businessman59. The passage suggests that _______.A. creativity is an important element of business successB. Ray Kroc was the close partner of the McDonald brothersC. Mac and Dick McDonald became broken after they sold their ideas to Ray KrocD. California is the best place to go into businessBHIGHFIELD COMPREHENSIVE SCHOOLSCHOOL REPORTForm Teacher: G.

Which of Simon’s subjects will attract the headmaster’s attention in future?A. Biology and Maths.B. History and French.C. English and Chemistry.D. Physics and Physical Education.62.

Simon didn’t bother his teacher to revise French.B. Basically, Simon did a good job in science.C. Simon is a determined learner in English.D. Simon is able to pay attention to history for long.CDo you know what really troubles me? For some reason, words with silent letters have always bothered me. For example, consider these words: know, design, island, school, wrist, naughty, and salmon. All of these words have at least one letter thatis not typically pronounced, and these words are just a very small part of words with silent letters in them.Some words are even worse, consider this word: colonel. Not only are some letters not pronounced, but letters that are not even there are pronounced.Even foreign languages, especially French, are guilty of this needless complexity and confusion. I know there must be some main historical reasons why the words are spelled and pronounced the way they are, but that does not mean bad traditions mustcontinue to survive. Especially if they are no longer logical.Unfortunately, there is very little that anyone can do for i t, because there’s no group of people who can change or have the right to change the English language for everyone. However, the only thing we can do is make changes in the way we talk and write in hopes that it catches on. For example, I pronounce the let ter “l” in salmon on purpose to make people annoyed and to sound more different or complicated.I even pronounce colonel the correct or French way.I can only hope these two minor changes to the English language make sense to you, and you will help to keep up these minor changes forever in your everyday life.64. Which of the following is the main reason for silent letters?A. French language.B. Historical reasons.C. Some linguistsD. Bad traditions.65. The underlined phrase “catches on” probably means “________”.A. becomes popularB. gets acrossC. follows the fashionsD. doesn’t fall behind66. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. Troubles in everyday lifeB. Traps in English wordsC. Words with silent lettersD. Necessary changes of languagesDAttempt a guess at the following question: In the English-speaking world, which country has the least affordable homes? You are wrong if you guessed the US, even with the housing bubble （气泡） and main sadness. Nor is it the UK, where prices have risen because demand is far from supply. According to a recent survey of 227 cities around the globe, you must go south of the equator （赤道） to Australia to find the priciest homes．The report meas ured a city’s housing market along the following guidelines. An “affordable” home required three times or less of the average family’s income to purchase. At four times earnings, a home fell into the “unaffordable” category. And a “seriously unaffordable” home needed five times a family’s income. In Australia, homes in the least affordable city cost just about 9.5 times the average income. Sydney, Perth, and Melbourne were only a little under this figure．Australian officials offered little comment, apart from a general statement on the dismal findings. These prices make the possibility that many Australians will one day own a home largely unbelievable. Land rationing （配给制） and excessive development charges have raised prices, and the problem will only be solved through urgent action by the Rudd government．Some American cities were also included on the least affordable list, four of which were in California. America is still involved in a mortgage（抵押）crisis,though, affecting the affordability of homes. Yet a number of US cities garnered “affordable” status, namely Dallas and Kansas. Australia had no cities listed in the top fifty places with affordable homes．The survey suggests that you can find affordable homes in most places, just notif you’re Australian and choose to live down under．67. To buy an affordable house, you should pay _____．A. 3 times or less of the average family’s incomeB. 4 times or less of the average family’s incomeC. 5 times or less of the average family’s incomeD. 9.5 times or less of the average family’s income68. What caused the prices of houses to increase in Australia?A．The rising family’s income． B．The demand over supply.C．The excessive development charges． D．The decrease of land．69.The underlined word “dismal” in Paragraph 3 may mean _____．A． cheerful B． satisfactory C． difficult D．sad70. What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A． Affordable Houses B． A House is a Dream FirstC． Housing Bubble D． Homes Too Expensive 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Half a year before graduation from college, my son began to seek a job. My son targeted a company that planned to 36 only one person. However, there were more than 20 candidates, among whom was my son. I 37 him, “ It’s difficult to get into the company.

A“Hey, Jenna, do you think we’ll still be friends when we’re eighty-two?” I asked my friend．It was clear that she was wondering whereI had come up with such a question．Losing Jenna would be like losinga very close sister．We hung out together．We gave each other advice．“Of course, we’ll still be friends when we’re eighty-two．” Jenna announced loudly．The next year, in the fourth grade, we met Jamie．The three of us soon became close friends．We played together almost every day．I thought even time couldn’t pull us apart, but I was sadly mistaken．The three of us started fighting a lot．Before Christmas, we had a really big fight, and Jamie and Jenna were against me, both saying I was bossy．I felt helpless and lonely．I thought Christmas would be horrible!I was surprised when Jenna came to my house and gave me an awesome Christmas card she had made for me．I was so sure that she was still disappointed with me．“Wow, ” I said, breaking the silence as we stood on either side of my front door．“Thanks．”“Okay…well…I have to go,” she said softly．“Okay．See you later then…” and I closed the door．“Who was that at the door?” my mum asked．The card started off with “Merry Christmas”, but then it said, “I am so glad we’re friends．I am sorry about what I said when we were fighting．A fight won’t stop us from being friends．Besides, we said we were going to be friends even when we’re eight-two．”I stopped reading and started laughing．I couldn’t believe I had forgotten what she said that day in her back yard．I couldn’t believe I had been so selfish in trying to get even and making my friends feel sorry for me that I had forgotten about real friendship．56．How would the author and Jenna get along with each other after Christmas?A．They would be close friends again．B．They would not speak to each other．C．They would lose touch with each other．D．They would go on fighting with each other．57．The underlined sentence “I was bossy” in the fourth paragraph means “_________”．A．I looked like a boss B．I acted as a bossC．I was fond of giving orders D．I was fond of fighting 58．Which of the following is the right time order according to the passage?a．Jamie became our friend．b．I felt lonely and unhappy．c．Jenna, Jamie and I fought a lot．d．Jenna brought me a Christmas card．e．I was sorry for what I did to her．f．Jenna and I promised to be lifelong friends．A．f a b c e d B．a c f b d e C．a b c f e dD．f a c b d e59．The author was delighted when she read the card from Jenna because _________．A．what Jenna wrote was funnyB．Jenna would be her friend againC．she was happy about the coming ChristmasD．she was happy to receive a Christmas cardB1．The Video Camera PenItem 78431;

For some reason, words with silent letters have always bothered me．For example, consider these words: know, design, island, school, wrist, naughty, and salmon．All of these words have at least one letter that is not typically pronounced, and these words are just a very small part of words with silent letters in them．Some words are even worse, consider this word: colonel．Not only are some letters not pronounced, but letters that are not even there are pronounced．Even foreign languages, especially French, are guilty of this needless complexity and confusion．I know there must be some main historical reasons why the words are spelled and pronounced the way theyare, but that does not mean bad traditions must continue to survive．Especially if they are no longer logical．Unfortunately, there is very little that anyone can do for it, because there’s no group of people who can change or have the right to change the English language for everyone．However, the only thing we can do is make changes in the way we talk and write in hopes that it catches on．For example, I pronounce the letter “l” in salmon on purpose to make people annoyed and to sound more different or complicated．I even pronounce colonel the correct or French way．I can only hope these two minor changes to the English language make sense to you, and you will help to keep up these minor changes forever in your everyday life．67．We can learn from the passage ________．A．colonel is pronouncedB．salmon is pronouncedC．all the words with silent letters come from FrenchD．linguists will solve the problem of dumb letters68．Which of the following is the main reason for silent letters?A．French language．B．Historical reasons．C．Some linguists D．Bad traditions．69．The underlined phrase “catches on” probably means “________”．A．becomes popular B．gets acrossC．follows the fashions D．doesn’t fall behind70．Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A．Troubles in everyday life B．Traps inEnglish wordsC．Words with silent letters D．Necessarychanges of languages第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AIn 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernadino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue(烤肉) restaurant, then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new idea: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity(一致性), for the brothers had developed a strict routine(程序) for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became surprisingly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the special attraction of the brothers’ fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise(特许经营) other copies of their restaurants. The agreement included the right to duplicate(复制) the menu, the equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches(拱门).Today McDonald’s is really a household name.

Simon is able to pay attention to history for long.CDo you know what really troubles me? For some reason, words with silent letters have always bothered me. For example, consider these words: know, design, island, school, wrist, naughty, and salmon. All of these words have at least one letter thatis not typically pronounced, and these words are just a very small part of words with silent letters in them.Some words are even worse, consider this word: colonel. Not only are some letters not pronounced, but letters that are not even there are pronounced.Even foreign languages, especially French, are guilty of this needless complexity and confusion. I know there must be some main historical reasons why the words are spelled and pronounced the way they are, but that does not mean bad traditions must continue to survive. Especially if they are no longer logical.Unfortunately, there is very little that anyone can do for i t, because there’s no group of people who can change or have the right to change the English language for everyone. However, the only thing we can do is make changes in the way we talk and write in hopes that it catches on. For example, I pronounce the let ter “l”in salmon on purpose to make people annoyed and to sound more different or complicated.I even pronounce colonel the correct or French way.I can only hope these two minor changes to the English language make sense to you, and you will help to keep up these minor changes forever in your everyday life.64. Which of the following is the main reason for silent letters?A. French language.B. Historical reasons.C. Some linguistsD. Bad traditions.65. The underlined phrase “catches on” probably means “________”.A. becomes popularB. gets acrossC. follows the fashionsD. doesn’t fall behind66. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. Troubles in everyday lifeB. Traps in English wordsC. Words with silent lettersD. Necessary changes of languagesDAttempt a guess at the following question: In the English-speaking world, which country has the least affordable homes? You are wrong if you guessed the US, even with the housing bubble （气泡） and main sadness. Nor is it the UK, where prices have risen because demand is far from supply. According to a recent survey of 227 cities around the globe, you must go south of the equator （赤道） to Australia to find the priciest homes．The report meas ured a city’s housing market along the following guidelines. An “affordable” home required three times or less of the average family’s income to purchase. At four times earnings, a home fell into the “unaffordable” category. And a “seriously unaffordable” home needed five times a family’s income. In Australia, homes in the least affordable city cost just about 9.5 times the average income. Sydney, Perth, and Melbourne were only a little under this figure．Australian officials offered little comment, apart from a general statement on the dismal findings. These prices make the possibility that many Australians will one day own a home largely unbelievable. Land rationing （配给制） and excessive development charges have raised prices, and the problem will only be solved through urgent action by the Rudd government．Some American cities were also included on the least affordable list, four of which were in California. America is still involved in a mortgage（抵押）crisis, though, affecting the affordability of homes. Yet a number of US cities garnered “affordable” status, namely Dallas and Kansas. Australia had no cities listed in the top fifty places with affordable homes．The survey suggests that you can find affordable homes in most places, just not if you’re Australian and choose to live down under．67. To buy an affordable house, you should pay _____．A. 3 times or less of the average family’s incomeB. 4 times or less of the average family’s incomeC. 5 times or less of the average family’s incomeD. 9.5 times or less of the average family’s income68. What caused the prices of houses to increase in Australia?A．The rising family’s income． B．The demand over supply.C．The excessive development charges． D．The decrease of land．69.The underlined word “dismal” in Paragraph 3 may mean _____．A． cheerful B． satisfactory C． difficult D．sad70. What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A． Affordable Houses B． A House is a Dream FirstC． Housing Bubble D． Homes Too Expensive 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
