When we were seated, my dad asked the waitress if there were any soldiers eating at the restaurant. Then waitress said there was a soldier having dinner with his friend. My dad told the waitress to tell the soldier and his friend that their dinner was paid for! He also said that he did not want to be known as the benefactor(施主).Then waitress later comment ed on my dad’s thoughtful behavior saying that she had never seen anything like this before. At a local college, she had studied opera and so she used this to thank my dad by performing a piece from The Pearl Fisherman. Her voice brought me to tears because it sounded perfect!After a while, the soldier appeared at out table(I don’t know how he knew my dad paid the bill for him.) and said that he would be sent to the front the next morning and that he could not leave this country without saying “thanks” to my dad. My dad replied that it was he who wanted to say “thanks”. They shook hands as the soldier left.Before we left, the waitress came by again. She did a magic show as another way to show her “thanks” to my dad. Her show was really great. My dad left her a note with email address asking for her next performance time in addition to a $ 50 tip.Everyone witnessed something exemplary(可作榜样的) in the human spirit that night. I can only hope to see more of this in the future.56.My dad offered help to the soldier and his friend in the restaurant probably because________.A. he wanted to thank them for all they themB. he wanted to know more about themC. he wanted the waitress to thank himD. he wanted the soldiers to know his kindness57. What did the soldier do in response to the author’s father’s kindness?A. He gave something to author’s dad.B. He gave a big tip to the waitress.C. H e said thanks to the author’s dad in person.D. He did a magic show for the author and her father.58. The author considered her father’s action to be ____.A. funnyB. understandableC. worthlessD. honorable59. Their passage mainly tells us that we should ____.A. learn to be grateful to othersB. find ways to thank othersC. try to learn from each otherD. respect soldiers and waitressesBDo you think people are willing to pay more for famous brand coffee, such as Starbucks, instead of making it at home?﹡I think that many p eople pay more for famous brand coffee because they’re busy and don’t have time to make it at home in the morning. —Hilary Gorenst﹡I think it’s because it is more convenient to have it made for you. Unless you work at a coffee shop, yo u wouldn’t know how to make some of the drinks at home. —Ray Brett﹡The atmosphere of the coffee shops makes it fun to buy drinks because of the convenience and variety! Plus, you on most drinks they put a little bit more of happiness on top—whipped creme, for example. Yum! —Keith Karla﹡You don’t experience these things when you are tired and alone sitting in your kitchen making the coffee yourself. —Casie Jolley﹡I don’t have time to make coffee in the morning, so stopping by a drive-in is easy for me! I love Starbucks in particular, because they are really consistent(一致的) with their drinks. I know I’ll never get a poorly make mocha! —Kelly Schakel60. This passage is most probably taken from _________.A. a noticeB. a diaryC. an advertisementD. an interview61. In Ray Brett’s opinion, ________.A.. working at a coffee shop helps make good coffee at home.B. it is more convenient for other people to make coffee than her.C. you would know how to make coffee whatever job you doD. it’s mor e convenient to make coffee by yourself at home.62. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Keith Karla feels it great fun to make coffee by herself at home.B. Kelly schakel loves Starbucks because they taste like real coffee.C. Hilary Gorenst is likely to make coffee at home when she isn’t busy.D. Cassie Jolley always feels tired when making coffee at home.63. The underlined word mocha probably means _________.A. a new coffee shopB. a little bit whipped cremeC.a waiter at StarbucksD. a certain kind of coffeeCThink of London and you're likely to think of the bright red double decker(双层) buses. Think of Thailand's capital city, Bangkok, and the noisy tuk-tuk(三轮摩托车) may come to mind. Picture San Francisco and you might see the city's cable cars.Imagining what these cities would look like without those is difficult. They are symbols of these cities that make them different. However, these city symbols are not always so well loved by their city leaders. City leaders want what is best for their city, which often means the most modern transport（交通）.In Bangkok, authorities(当权者) have forbidden tuk-tuks because they consider them noisy and polluting. However, the ban has largely been unsuccessful as it has not changed Thai people's preference for the inexpensive tuk-tuks over taxis.In London the city's first ever mayor（市长）got rid of the red double decker buses, which he thought were old fashioned. His plan worked, but Londoners were upset to lose the charming old buses they believed represented the best of their city. They made their upset felt when the mayor came up for re-election. Most Londoners voted for his competitor, who promised to bringthe bus back. Now, an improved version of the doubled-decker bus will hit London’s streets in 2012.As for San Francisco, several cable cars remain in use but mainly as tourist attractions. They are too slow to be used for anything other than scenic trips.City transport symbols may have a place in their city people's hearts, but it seems they are increasingly out of step with the modern world. As Londoners have proved, their continued life depends on people's willingness to fight for their survival.64. What's the purpose of writing the first paragraph?A. To explain why those cities are popular with tourists around the world.B. To use the old transport symbols to attract more tourists to visit the citiesC. To show the cultural significance of several cities’ unique transport systerm.D. To introduce some old-fanshioned means of transport , which are symbols of the three cities65. The London double decker bus is returning mainly because .____A. it is an improved versionB. the new mayor loves itC it is popular with tourists D. Londoners fought for it66 Which example can prove old city transport symbols are not loved by city leaders?A Bangkok city authorities tried to get rid of the cheap tuk-tuksB The mayor who sold double-decker buses lost the reelectionC The new mayor will bring back improved double-decker busesD Only a few cable cars remain in use by tourists in San Francisco67. What can we conclude from the passage?A. A modern city should get rid of inefficient old transport.B. Old city transport symbols face the problem of survival.C. The writer is in favor of the old city transport symbols.D. Tourist cities will lose their charm without the symbols.DMarriages improve after children grow up and move out, according to an academic study, which suggests an “empty nest”is not always a bad thing.Popular wisdom has it that parents’ relationships may suffer once their young fly the coop, because they feel they have lost their purpose in life. However, a new study by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, has found that many couples actually feel happier when their children leave home because they are able to enjoy spending time together.In total, 123 American mothers born in the 1930s were tracked for 18 years and asked to rate their satisfaction levels shortly after marrying, when they were bringing up babies, once their children reached their teenage years and finally at age 61, when almost all had “empty nests”.Although not all said they were happier in general, most claimed their marriages had improved since their children had left home, Researchers believe this is not just because the spouses were spending more time together, but because they were able to enjoy each other’s company more.One of the participants in the study, which is published in the journal Psychological Science ,said:“ Once the kids grow up…there’s some of that stress removed…that responsibility removed, so things are a little more relaxed.”Psychologist Sara Gorchoff, who carried out the investigation, said: “The take-home message for couples with young children is ‘hang in there’.” Her co-author Oliver John added: “ Don’t waituntil your kids leave home to schedule quality time with your partner.”However, Dr Dorothy Rowe, from the British Psychological Society, said the effects of living in an “empty nest”will depend on the parents’relationship with their children. “If you’re just waiting for them to leave home so you can get on with your life, then of course you’ll be pleased to see them go, ” she said, “But if you’ve built your life around your children you’ll be terribly lonely. For some parents, their world falls apart when their children leave. ”68．It is commonly believed that .A．marriages improve after children leave homeB．an “empty nest” is always a happy thing.C．parents’ relationships may suffer once their young grow up and move outD．parents will be pleased after their children leave home69．When did many couples feel happier according to the study?A．At age 61, when almost all had “empty nests”.B．Shortly after marrying.C．Once their children reached their teenage years.D．When they were bringing up babies.70．The author of the passage tends to agree that .A．parents should build their life around their kidsB．parents should schedule quality time with each other before kids leave homeC．parents’ relationship with their kids has no effect on marriages at allD．parents should be pleased to see their kids leave home第四部分：任务型阅读（每小题0.5分，满分5分）每空一词Women need to pay attention to their own special risks. And so do men., even children and teens need to be aware -- or at least the parents who want to keep them safe do. Thankfully, scientists have also made great leaps in figuring out the specific prevention strategies and diagnostic tools that work best for men, women, and children. So now, basic knowledge is your best protection.What Men Need to KnowAccording to the American Heart Association (AHA), at least half of the people who die suddenly from coronary heart disease each year had no clue they were sick.Some think that half of all heart attacks strike suddenly. However, a study found that at least 90 percent of first heart attacks are caused by well-known problems like high cholesterol(胆固醇) or diabetes(糖尿病)Lifestyle changes like adopting a healthy diet, getting out for regular exercise, avoiding tobacco, losing weight are the first line of defense,What Women Need to KnowThere are also some special considerations for the woman who's healthy and wants to make sure she stays that way. First, she shouldn't smoke-no one should, but the habit is even harder on a woman's heart than it is on a man's.women who find that they are at risk should talk to their doctor about taking a statin. Indeed, stains halved the risk of cardiovascular (心血管性的)there's been not enough evidence that they help high-risk women and it can't guarantee（担保）the long-term safety. So it's worth noting that a healthy diet and exercise also reduce cholesterol and CRP.What Parents Need to KnowLast year, a study showed that obede children and teens have arteries that look like those of an average 45-year-old. New guidelines say these children should get a cholesterol test by age ten---and even wrge doctors to condider statins for those most at risk if nothing else works. The recommendations caused oppositions. Lifestyle changed such as diet and exercise are the best strategy, says Dr.Greer, a professor at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine.

3．The hotel owner built the stone monument in order to________. A．make more money B．remember the loyal dog C．show off D．honor the prince 4．What could be the best title for this passage? A．A Prince and His Dog B．A Profit Making Lie C．A Magnificent Hotel D．A Faithful but Unlucky Dog B (张珊珊) After an earthquake most survivors can be expected to recover over time，particularly with the support of family and friends. Some families will be able to return to their normal life quickly，while others will have to contend with the destruction of their homes，medical problems，and injury to family members. Children especially will need time to recover from the loss of a loved one or a pet or from the closing down of their school. Children often turn to adults for information，comfort and help. Parents should try to remain calm，answer children’s questions honestly and remain understanding when they see changes in their children’s behavior. Children react differently to an earthquake depending on their ages，developmental levels and former experiences. Some will respond by withdrawing(不与人交往)，while others will have angry outbursts(爆发)．Parents should remain sensitive to each child’s reactions. Parents should spend time talking to their children，letting them know that it’s OK to ask questions and to share their worries. Although it may be hard to find time to have these talks，parents can use regular family mealtimes or bedtimes for them. They should answer questions briefly and honestly and be sure to ask their children for their opinions and ideas. Issues may come up more than once and parents should remain patient when you answer the questions again. For young children，parents，after talking about the earthquake，might read a favorite story or have a relaxing family activity to help them calm down. Parents should also tell children they are safe and spend extra time with them. They could play games outside or read together indoors. Most importantly，be sure to tell them you love them.（张珊珊） 5．What’s the passage mainly about? A．How to prepare before an earthquake strikes. B．What to do in an earthquake. C．How to face the loss of a loved one in an earthquake. D．How to help children recover mentally from an earthquake. 6．The underlined phrase “contend with” in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by “________”． A．deal with B．make up C．put off D．turn back 7．Which of the following pieces of advice is NOT mentioned in the passage? A．Keep a close watch on children’s behavior. B．Tell the children they are safe. C．Tell the children you love them. D．Ask educational experts for help. 8．What can we know from the passage? A．All people will recover from an earthquake quickly.

Associated with B. decorated with C. thought to D. took to二、阅读理解A“Only in a few years you’ll be an adult!” This statement is usually by adults with a wink at my mother. I usually take “the wink(眨眼）” to mean “or at least that’s what she thinks, right?” It’s true that in two years I’ll be 18, and that will make me legally an adult. But it’s also just a number. It doesn’t come with a fantastic moment when you know all the adults are supposed to know what to do. It doesn’t make responsibilities easier. It just makes it legal for you to enter online sweepstakes(彩票）and work at Walmart.This thought all started back in July when my friend, Dakota, officially flew outof military basic training in Oklahoma. He’s 17. Not an adult by the legal definition, but making a very adult decision. He can’t rent a movie from most places, but he can defend our country. I didn’t realize how much his actual departure would affect me and the way I viewed growing up and when i t actually starts.My best friend Madeline is now studying psychology in London. She’s 18. She has been working pretty hard to get the perfect grades. Now, she’s living on her own, doing little things that make her, in my eyes, an adult, and is in complete control of her personal life. I have a basic idea of how a loan works, and apply for one like her? Forget it. I haven’t even had a credit card until now.My other friends are growing up around me, making decisions that will affect the rest of their lives. Where do I fit in? My life is so different form the standard; it’s hard to compare. I’m home-schooled. I’ve been a fashion blogger since I was 13, an occupation that has definitely taught me a lot first-hand about the outside world. Earlier this year, I got my first Teen V ogue feature(专栏）and worked with the Disney Channel. But if you add that up, it doesn’t equal an adult. It equals an accomplished teenager.I made myself a list of “Things to Learn Before I Grow Up”. Number one: Figure out the whole significant thing. Maybe learning to cook something rather than buying ready-made food from the supermarket. But it’s also important for me to enjoy being young. I like having sandwiches my mom made for me, and getting to just be silly sometimes without worry. So in conclusion, my point is this: Being a grown-up is less about your age, but more about what you do with your life.21.What does the author think of the age of 18?A.She can be responsible for herself.B. It is when she still doesn’t know things.C. It is legal for her to do online business.D. She still can’t do things like adults.22.What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?A.Her growing up.B. Dakota’s departure.C. Her defending the country.D. Dakota’s renting a movie.23.Why did the author mention Madeline?A.To explain the course of applying for a loan.B.To admire Madeline’s growing up.C.To stress the importance of a credit card.D.To praise Madeline for her hard work.24.What might be the bets title for the passage?A.I will be 18 in two years.B. I can’t learn like my friends.C. Will “18” make you an adult?D. I don’t want to grow up yet.BUS poet Allen Ginsberg once said, “poetry is the one place where people can speak their original human mind.”To recognize the unique ability of poetry to capture the human spirit, World Poetry Day is held by the United Nations on March 21 each year.The magic of poetry lies in the connection built up through words between the author and the reader. When we read a poem, we often imagine what the poet was thinking when they wrote it, or what they were doing at the time. These thoughts letus connect with the words better, as if we’d written the poem ourselves.But in the age of artificial intelligence(AI人工智能), would a poem still mean as much if it weren’t written by a human at all? Today, computers can create all kinds of texts, including research papers, books, news stories and even poems by using algorithms(算法）.In 2013, Australian researcher Oscar Schwartz and his friend Benjamin Laird created a website called “bot or not”, where readers can read poems and guess whether they were written by a human or a computer. During a recent speech at TedX Sydney, Schwartz said that throughout the years, some of the website’s poems were able to fool 65 percent of human readers into thinking they were written by a human.By launching the website, Schwartz and Laird hoped that people would question the difference between humans and machines---and be able to identify what makes us human.Unstableness(易变性）is part of the answer. “The human [mind] is not a cold, hard fact,” Schwartz said during his TedX Sydney speech, “Rather, it is something that’s constructed with our opinions and something that changes over time.”A computer may be able to create poems that are correct in both grammar and style, but it wouldn’t be able to get the same meanings and emotions across a human poet could. In fact, current AI software creates poems based on ones that have already been written by humans. As Schwartz noted. “The computer works like a mirror that reflects any idea of a human that developers teach it.”So a new challenge arises: What kind of human mind do we want the computer to reflect back at us?Man vs machineTake a look at the two poems below.

The (survive) all went up and thanked him for his kindness.Ⅱ.阅读理解No one can believe that the over 6300-kilometre long Great Wall might disappear some day. Believe it or not, the Great Wall is being destroyed by people. Less than 20 per cent of the Great Wall built in the Ming Dynasty is still perfect, but about 80 per cent is in danger. The Great Wall can be called “great”mostly because of its amazing length. But we should realize that the length was made up of one brick at a time. If we do nothing to save the Great Wall, it will become a series of separate wasteland rather than a historic site.The Great Wall is actually a series of walls built and rebuilt by different dynasties over the past 2,000 years. It began in the rule of China's first emperor, Qin Shi Huang of the Qin Dynasty (221—206 BC),and lasted into the Ming Dynasty. The parts built before the Ming Dynasty have nearly disappeared. People are familiar with sections such as Badaling in Beijing and Jiayuguan in Gansu because they have been open to tourists for many years. But those sections far away from the public eyes have been almost forgotten.Few local people knew the three-metre-high walls made of earth and stones beside them are part of the Great Wall. The lack of knowledge is considered as one of the main reasons behind human destruction.The bricks on the Great Wall are carried off by countryside people to build their houses, sheep corrals and pigsties(猪圈).Some are taken away to build roads. Bricks carved with people's names are put away as remembrances. Rubbish is spread over the battlements(城垛).The bricks can be sold for 15 yuan per tractor load. Those who destroyed and are destroying the Great Wall know its name, but第 1 页are not clear about its cultural meaning. It will take a long time to let them know this. The local farmers not only carried off the body of the Wall but dug out the entire base.It is necessary to protect the Great Wall. First of all,the officials should be aware of the importance of the Great Wall. Young Chinese should know more about the nation's great civilization and learn to love it.1. The main reason for which the Great Wall can be called “great”is that .A.it is made by brickB.it is very wideC.it is very longD.it has a long history2. Why does the author say the Great Wall might disappear?A.It is useless from now on.B.It will be replaced by a new one.C.Some parts of it are being destroyed.D.It's too old to be used again.3. The underlined part “those sections far away from the public eyes”refers to the parts of the Great Wall . A.that are too difficult to understandB.that nobody can watchC.that are too far to be seenD.that are not well known to the public4. What's one of the main reasons of the Great Wall's being destroyed?A.The local people are short of culture knowledge.B.The local people need bricks and stones to build houses.C.The local people think that the Great Wall is not important.D.The local people are against the government.Ⅲ.完形填空After work one day, I grabbed a pizza for dinner at the mall. As I was heading home, I saw a girl sitting in a corner of the mall. Her hair covered her face and her body was 1 . I determined to walk past her 2 that's what we often do. But something made me turn 3 . I learned her age,and why she begged for money and lived on the streets. Her parents 4 years ago and she suffered from a serious skin disease. She was 5 to work because of her disability and had to live in the safest place she could 6 . She had stayed in shelters in the past, but was treated 7 . She had to seek a shelter from the mall to keep 8 on cold days,but she said even the mall wasn't 9 because security(保安) always threw her out.I'm one of those people who used to believe there was a system of 10第 2 页to help her. Ideally, I would like to believe in that. I used to think maybe one day I would 11 “them”. Maybe one day I would win the lottery(彩票). But when I 12 that girl, I thought to myself, what if no one ever helped her? What if this so-called 13 system that I believed in didn't even know or 14 her existence? What if I didn't 15 any money? What if she was not going to be around long enough to 16 that “one day”?I didn't really think about what happened next. I 17 my dinner with her and gave her all the money I had. When security came,I talked them into assisting her 18 driving her away like they usually did.Don't 19 one day to come before you help someone. Now is that one day—not tomorrow, not next week. If you can do something to ease someone else's 20 , don't wait for that distant one day. Be the one day. Be it now.1. A.hot B.heavyC.weakD.wet2. A.if B.whenC.tillD.because3. A.over B.backC.awayD.up4.

On the site Avatar Forums（论坛）, the topic “Ways to cope with the depression of the dream of Pandora being intangible（触摸不到的）” has more than 1,000 posts.In a similar forum, one user wrote, “When I woke up this morning after watching Avatar for the first time yesterday, the world seemed grey. It just seems so meaningless.”“I still don‟t really see any reason to keep doing things at all. I live in a dying world.”On another site, one fan was even more affected, admitting, “I even consider suicide, thinking that if I do it I will be rebirthed in a world similar to Pandora.”On the Avatar site Naviblue, a fan calling himself Jorba has even asked others to join him in starting a real Na‟vi tribe（部落）.Dr Stephan Quentzel, psychiatrist（精神病医生）and Medical Director in New York told CNN, “Virtual life is not real life and it never will be, but this is the pinnacle（极点）of what we can build in a virtual presentation so far.”“It has taken the best of our technology to create this virtual world and real life will never be as utopian（空想的）as it seems on screen. It makes real life seem more imperfect.”But not everyone viewing the film has been hit by the “Avatar Blues”, as a small but vocal（发嗓音的）group have claimed it contains racist（种族主义的）themes—the white hero once again saving the primitive（原始的）natives. Since the film opened three weeks ago, hundreds of blog posts, newspaper articles and YouTube videos have said things such as the film is “a fantasy about ra ce told from the point of view of white people” and that it strengthens “the white Messiah fable（寓言）.”The film‟s writer and director, James Cameron, says the real theme is about respecting others‟ differences.56. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. The audience think the theme of the film is showing respect to others‟ differences.B. The perfection created in the film makes some viewers think of committing suicide.C. Most of the viewers think the film focuses on racism.D. The film shows the humans are in harmony with nature.57. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.A. the director makes full use of hi-tech to create the virtual world in the filmB. fans voice their feelings on the InternetC. some viewers criticized racism described in the filmD. some viewers even want to create a real Na‟vi tribe58. The best title of the passage is ________.A. Avatar—A Perfect FilmB. Avatar—A Reflection of Real LifeC. Avatar’s Setting Causing Real Life ImperfectD. Avatar’s P erfection Causing DepressionBEast Hampton Fine Arts FestivalDate: July 4-6, 2010Time: 10:00 am-6:00 pmEast Hampton Fine Arts Festival features （以…为特色）America‟s top artists and is one of the highest quality juried show on Long Island.

Others say that competition is bad because it sets one person against another and it leads to unfriendly relationships between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit（追求）of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winners and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse, “I may have lost, but it does n‟t matter because I really did n‟t try.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one‟s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve（消失）can we discover a new meaning in competition.63. What does this passage mainly talk about?A. Competition helps to set up self-respect.B. Opinions about competition are different among people.C. Competition is harmful to personal quality development.D. Failures are necessary experiences in competition.64. The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means __________.A. those who try their best to winB. those who value competition most highlyC. those who are against competition most stronglyD. those who rely on others most for success65. What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a desire to fail?A. One‟s worth lies in his performance compared with others.B. One‟s success in competition needs great efforts.C. One‟s achievement is determined by his particular.D. One‟s success is based on how hard he has tried.66. Which point of view may the author agree to?A. Every effort should be paid back.B. Competition should be encouraged.C. Winning should be a life-and-death matter.D. Fear of failure should be removed in competition.DBe careful! Someone may use the truth to deceive. When he tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can create a false impression.For example, someone might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery（彩票）. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!”This g uy‟s a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred tickets, and only one was a winner. He‟s really a big loser!He didn‟t say anything that was false, but he purposely left out important information. That‟s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.Untrustworthy candidates in political campaigns often use this tactic. Let‟s say that during Governor Smith‟s last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million job s. Then she seeks（寻求）another term（任期）. One of her opponents（对手）runs an ad saying, “During Governor Smith‟s term, the st ate lost one million jobs!” That‟s true. However an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith‟s term, the state had a net（净）gain of two million jobs.”Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It‟s against the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the truth. An ad might boast（吹牛）, “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples（丘疹）.” It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.This kind of deception happens too often. It‟s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.67. Which statement is true according to the article?A. Whenever people tell the truth, they are really lying.B. You can‟t trust gamblers（赌徒）.C. All governors help their states.D. The truth can be used in dishonest ways.68. The underlined word “deceive” in the first sentence means ________.A. removing one‟s teeth in publicB. ignore warningsC. foolD. repair69. The author clearly wants people to ________.A. think carefully about what they read and hearB. wear mismatched socks during political campaignsC. never trust anyoneD. vote for female candidates70. An appropriate title for this passage would be ________.A. Half-truthB. Everyone LiesC. Lying With the TruthD. Nose PimplesV. 单词拼写（共20小题；每小题0.5分，满分10分）1.

There are three ways you can experience the thrill of skydiving and the only requirement is that you should be at least eighteen years old and have a weight of under 250 pounds. You also have to be free of any heart disease or severe medical conditions.Skydiving courses, in most cases, work the same way. A certified(有资格的) instructor will get you trained and he'll try to scare you and make you not jump. That‟s because the only thing he doesn't want is that a student panics while free falling. You'll then have to fill a lot of papers that you must go through if you want to jump. These documents make sure that if you get hurt the company will not be responsible. These are very scary but you‟ll have to sign them if you want to jump.When choosing the method you'll first skydive, you have to consider how much time you have and how much cash you've got. Of course, how brave you are is another factor and depending on these factors you‟ll have to choose one of three methods for your first jump. The methods are tandem（两人前后纵列）, static line and accelerated(加速) free fall. If what you want is to fly freely you have to go for accelerated free fall. Just want a nice ride, tandem might be the best choice. If you just want a quick ride you can go for static line.A good thing to take into consideration is videotaping your first jump, which costs from $ 50 to $100. You'll love looking back at how scared you were when jumping out of an airplane. If you choose to videotape your jump, another skydiver will jump before you do from the airplane and fly near you with acamera.VII. 书面表达（共1题，满分15分）假如你是班长，要组织主题班会，请你以“爱娱乐更爱学习”为主题，用英文写一篇发言稿。
2023-2024学年高一下学期英语限时训练-1
高一英语限时训练（1）I. 阅读理解AAI is short for artificial intelligence (人工智能).Scientists have been working to improve AI models, mainly by training the models on larger and larger collections of information. Those works are paying off. Quite powerful AI tools have surprised even their creators with what they can do.Some recent models can create music based on people’s choice of mood (气氛), style and length. Some can create realistic photos from a short-written description. Others can recreate anyone’s voice saying anything based on a voice recording just a few seconds long.But the AI tool that’s gotten the most attention recently is ChatGPT, created by the company OpenAI. ChatGPT is used to generate text (create writing). When asked a question, ChatGPT answers quickly in perfect sentences. It makes up stories and games, writes articles, programs computers, and much more. ChatGPT appears to be highly intelligent. But really, ChatGPT is simply guessing — based on its training information — which word is most likely to come next.Last month, OpenAI introduced a more powerful model, called GPT-4, which can create and explain jokes, and pass tests that are difficult for humans. The rapid progress and more general skills of recent AI models worry some people. Last week, many computer experts wrote an open letter calling for a six-month pause (暂停) for any work on AI tools stronger than GPT-4.The letter said AI companies were in a race to create “powerful digital(数字的) minds” that no one can “understand, predict (预测), or ...control”. The group behind the letter wants governments to develop laws to make sure Al tools are safe.Many AI experts express their views on the letter. Some say the letter makes today’s AI tools sound more intelligent than they really are. Others say it’s more important to worry about the real problems of AI tools at present rather than imaginary ones there might be in the future.Many companies are likely to keep developing powerful AI tools. But the letter has senta strong warning that many people will be thinking about carefully.1. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. Future possibilities of AI tools.B. Impressive abilities of AI tools.C. Serious problems with AI tools.D. Suggested improvements for AI tools.2. Why does the author mention GPT-4 in paragraph 4?A. To introduce a new AI model.B. To describe AI models’ future.C. To compare different AI models.D. To show AI models’ fast progress.3. For what purpose did many computer experts write an open letter?A. To explain the idea of AI.B. To speed the spread of Al.C. To slow down AI development.D. To predict the risk of AI research.4. What is many AI experts’ attitude to the letter according to paragraph 6?A. Carefree.B. Favorable.C. Uncertain.D. UnsupportiveBEmperor penguins (帝企鹅) live on the faraway and very cold Antarctic coasts. Because of the hard conditions of emperor penguins’ natural home, some groups are unreachable for humans, making these birds hard to study.Satellites (machines that have been sent into space and go around the Earth) have come to help penguin researchers search Antarctic coasts for penguin groups. Recently, satellite imagery (影像) has shown a new penguin group. It’s small, but can be seen from space.Peter Fretwell, a scientist at the British Antarctic Survey, was looking for melting (融化的) sea ice when he saw a new penguin group. The new group is relatively small. It has only about 1,000 adult penguins, or 500 breeding pairs. But, as one of only 66 emperor penguin groups now known to researchers, it was an important addition. This group, like all the others discovered by satellite, could be seen from space because penguin waste builds up near groups and makes the snow dark brown.After Fretwell’s team saw the dark brown snow, they confirmed (确认) their discovery with satellite imagery. The penguins, seen as small round marks in the imagery, could be seen in pictures taken by the Maxar WorldView-3 satellite, which can find objects less than a foot long. The Maxar WorldView-3 imagery is what researchers used to decide that the group had a population of about 1,000 penguins.Philip Trathan, another scientist at the British Antarctic Survey, said, “Although we’ve found more than 60 groups, the grounds are all in the places where recent studies suggest emperor penguins will decline. Birds in these grounds are probably at risk — we need to watch these grounds carefully as climate (气候) change will have an influence on this area.”The finding of this new group is promising news for the future of penguins. With climate change and other human influences on their environment, it’s encouraging to know that there are still places where penguins can grow or develop well. These pictures give us hope that if we work to protect penguins’ homes, they will continue to be a part of our planet for years to come.5.What problem have researchers been facing when studying emperor penguins?A. Some of their groups are out of reach.B. Their natural home is too large to explore.C. Satellites cannot find groups that are small.D. Satellite imagery cannot show their numbers clearly.6. Which of the following played a key role in confirming the new penguin group?A. The penguin waste.B. The melting sea ice.C. The marks the penguins have.D. The snow the penguins built up.7. What might the underlined word “decline” in paragraph 5 mean?A. Show up.B. Become fewer.C. Develop better.D. Come together:8. How does the author sound in the last paragraph?A. Curious.B. Worried.C. Hopeful.D. HumorousII. 7选5阅读While it’s important for adults to understand how to manage their money, it’s also helpful to teach their children about making smart choices with money. This can help them avoid money problems in the future.Ellen Sabin is the author (作者) of “The Nickels, Dimes, and Dollars Book: A Wise Kid’s Guide to Money Matters”. 1 .Behavioral researchers at Cambridge University say that parents should start teaching their kids about money as young as three years old. 2 . Children in this age group often ask questions about money, which can be a great opportunity (机会) for parents to help them understand money choices and the importance of money in life.Parents can start talking to their kids about money to help them understand why it’s important. “Kids may not think about saving for college, so parents can encourage them to pretend (假装) they are an adult and make decisions between ‘wants’ and ‘needs’. 3 ,” Sabin recommends.Another way parents can help their children learn about the importance of money is by using a “show-and tell” method. 4 . Parents can use the chance to show their kids how to make wise decisions within a certain budget (预算). Sabin says by doing this, parents can help their kids feel good about money and become comfortable with it.5 . Sabin notes that kids enjoy running their own businesses, such as lemonade stands, which shows they value making money. This can help children understand the importance of hard work and the value of money.A. Parents don’t really know how to talk about these topicsB. Kids are always curious about where money comes fromC. She hopes children can learn the basics of money at a young ageD. For example, money can be discussed while having meals or shoppingE. This can help children learn how to make responsible spending choicesF. Parents can also encourage their children to make money through workG. However, Sabin’s book recommends ages 6-11 as the best time for making kids dollar-wiseIII. 完形填空Ever since he was 6 years old, Josiah Colton has wanted to save the Earth.Now 10, the fifth-grader has already started a 1 .

Believe it or not ， the Great Wall is being destroyed by people. Less than 20 per cent of the Great Wall built in the Ming Dynasty is still perfect，but about 80 per cent is in danger. The Great Wall can be called “great” mostly because of its amazing length. But we should realize that the length was made up of one brick at a time. If we do nothing to save the Great Wall ， it will become a series of separate wasteland rather than a historic site.The Great Wall is actually a series of walls built and rebuilt by different dynasties over the past 2， 000 years. It began in the rule of China's first emperor ， Qin Shi Huang of the Qin Dynasty (221— 206 BC) ， and lasted into the Ming Dynasty. The parts built before the Ming Dynasty have nearly disappeared. People are familiar with sections such as Badaling in Beijing and Jiayuguan in Gansu because they have been open to tourists for many years. But those sections far away from the public eyes have been almost forgotten.Few local people knew the three-metre-high walls made of earth and stones beside them are part of the Great Wall. The lack of knowledge is considered as one of the main reasons behind human destruction.The bricks on the Great Wall are carried off by countryside people to build their houses， sheep corrals and pigsties( 猪圈 ).Some are taken away to build roads.第1页/共4页Bricks carved with people's names are put away as remembrances.

It will take a long time to let them know this.The local farmers not only carried off the body of the Wall but dug out theentire base.It is necessary to protect the Great Wall.

（共12小题；每小题3分，满分36分）ACats and many other animals can reflect light from their eyes.That’s why their eyes will usually shine brightly in photos taken in a less bright room.Some species can see better in low light because they either hunt for food or need to look out for enemies throughout the night,or at the early morning and late afternoon.In fact,domesticated(家养的)cats can see in conditions that are only16%as bright as what people require.Cats achieve this because their pupils(瞳孔)are special.Pupils operate like windows,with bigger ones letting more light into the eye.And a cat’s pupils can become up to 50%larger than human pupils in weak light.They also have a higher number of a specific type of light-sensing cell in the back of their eyes than we do.These cells,called rods,catch low-level light.What’s more,cats have something people don’t:a tapetum lucidum,or eyeshine,which is behind the retina(视网膜),receiving light,changing the light to an electrical signal and sending this signal to the brain to form the image.A cat’s tapetum lucidum reflect light back to the retina, which gives the retina a second chance to absorb more light.Unfortunately,animals with a tapetum lucidum give up some visual quality for their ability to see in weak light.That’s because bright light reflecting off he tapetum lucidum can make what they see a little more unclear.So,a cat needs to be seven times closer to an object to see it as sharply as a person would in a brightly lit place.But don’t worry,I’m sure your cat would rather see clearly at night than read a book.1.In photos taken in dark rooms,we find cats’eyes shining brightly mainly because________.A.their eyes can send light like a car's headlightsB.they need to fight enemies with lights in the darkC.they have the habit of hunting for food at nightD.they have the ability to reflect light from their eyes2.According to the text,which of the following helps cats catch low-level light?A.Pupils.B.Rods.C.Retinas.D.Tapetum lucidums.3How does the author illustrate his viewpoint?A.By analyzing causes.B.By providing examples.C.By explaining a concept.D.By drawing comparisons.4.Which of the following is the inconvenience atapetum lucidum brings to cats?A.Failing to approach the goal.B.Missing the chance of reading.C.Seeing clearly in the bright light.D.Losing some visual quality.BI often wondered what it would be like to have cancer.I didn’t expect to find out,though,at last not for decades.I have always been healthy and strong;I regularly do hot yoga and swim two kilometers in a bay near my home in Sydney.But now I know:it felt as if I was carrying a baby.Tumors(肿瘤)that silently grew inside me suddenly became bigger one weekend.Then,one Saturday in June,I was struck with sharp pain and ended up in the hospital.My doctor said it might be very serious.I spent two weeks waiting for the operation,not knowing if I’d live to the end of the year.In the days before the operation,I turned off my phone and computer.I prayed so hard that I grew unnaturally calm.The operation lasted five hours.The mass was fully removed,but it was unexpectedly complicated.I was in special care for eight days,in the wires,machines,with pipes in my lungs and liver.Luckily,the operation was very successful and I am slowly growing stronger.I am walking upright again and waking without great pain.I can now drive,and am preparing to return to work. My prognosis(预后)is good,but I will need to live with the fear of return.Everyone suddenly seems consumed with foolish worries.I have a different idea about the complaints posted by some Internet users who had the flu,were upset by the upcoming exams or burdened by work.I want to scream:BUT YOU ARE ALIVE!Alive!Each day is a gift,especially if you are upright and able to move with ease,without pain.I’m still struggling with what all of this means.But in this short time,a truth became even clearer to me.We should not have to move to the woods like Henry David Thoreau to“live meaningfully”. It would be impossible and frankly tiring to live each day as if it were your last.My doctor asked me a few days ago how I became so calm before the operation.I told her:I prayed;I locked out negativity and drew my family and friends near;I tried to live meaningfully.She said,“Actually you should do that for the rest of your life.”5.What did the author think of her physical state before being diagnosed(诊断)with cancer?A.She knew tumors silently grew inside her.B.She exercised regularly but felt bad sometimes.C.She thought there was nothing wrong with her health.D.She was considered to be healthy by the doctor.6.Which one is not the so-called“foolish worries”according to the author in Paragraph9?A.Loss of both legs.B.Suffering from the flu.C.Burden of heavy workloads.D.Fear of the monthly exams.7.Which of the following can best describe the author?A.Kind and outgoing.B.Cautious and brave.C.Confident and generous.D.Positive and reflective.8.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A.To share a pleasant experience.B.To recommend a healthy lifestyle.C.To call on people to live a worthy life.D.To try hard to make a difference to the world.C“Demographics are our fate”,which suggests much of the future is determined by the very simple trend lines of populations.Of course,demographics can’t spot pandemics or other crises. But as shocking as they feel at the moment,such events are rare.One aspect of the future that demographics can’t help predict are technological discoveries.But even technological discoveries have a slower impact on the daily life than we sometimes perceive.Peter Thiel famously said in 2013,“We wanted flying cars.Instead,we got nothing but140characters.”So what comes next?If you woke up20years from now in2042,what would be different? Here are some ideas based on numbers that don’t require a crystal ball.About70percent of the world population is expected to live in urban areas by2050,according to data from the United Nations.That means most cities are going to need more improvements.Roads,public transportation and waste management will need large-scale expansion and upgrades.The averageperson produces4.9pounds of waste a day,up from3.66pounds in1980.But here’s a trend going in the other direction as a result of technology:Paper and paperboard declined from87.7million tons in2000to67.4million tons in2018,according to the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency.And we’ll be older.In the United States,we’re likely to live until82.4years old,compared with79.1years old today,the United Nations predicts.That’s a good thing for health care companies and others that satisfy the needs of older people.But living three extra years is going to be more expensive,which will have an influence on both working and saving.Businesspersons,industry leaders and policymakers are already at work solving some of the problems that demographic data suggest are ahead of us.They are trying to figure out how to inspire farmers to sequester carbon and use green machines to reduce the energy consumption.What about the metaverse?Or robots taking our jobs?Or AI taking over everything? Demographics can’t answer those questions.All of those things may happen,but life in2042may also look a lot like it does today maybe with the exception of those flying cars.9.How does the author understand“Demographics are our fate.”in Paragraph1?A.The trend lines of populations can decide the future of the world.B.Demographics can’t determine all the things in the future.C.Demographics can help recognize pandemics or other rises in the future.D.Demographics can decide how quickly we make new technological discoveries.10.In2042,which of the following is least likely to happen according to the prediction?A.Much more paper will be produced.B.The environment will be polluted seriously.C.People will produce much more waste than before.D.Urban areas are going to need more improvements.11.The underlined word“sequester”in Paragraph4can be replaced by________.A.increaseB.avoidC.generateD.encounter12.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Are flying cars popular in20years?B.What is the fate of the car industry?C.What will the world be like in20years?D.What effect do the Demographics have?第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）How to Focus on StudyingUnless you have a strong desire to learn the information or develop a skill,it can be hard to focus all of your attention.Here are some of the best tricks that help you increase your focus on studying.____13____Chose a right spot.And,in order to concentrate,you must remove the things distracting(分心)you.Put away mobile devices.Turn off the TV.Sit away from people making loud noises.Come prepared.____14____Have pens,paper,textbooks or anything necessary at hand.You should take care of everything outside of studying before you sit down to focus.If not,you’ll just end up getting up repeatedly.Make a schedule.Aim to work for30—60minute periods with5—10minute breaks in between.It is a lot easier to push yourself for a set period of time,if you know you have a break coming up.____15____Studying the same thing for too long is an invitation to boredom(枯燥).Make lists and break down tasks.Write down your study goals for that day.Make sure the task is within your ability.It works for any task like reading a book,studying for a test,or whatever.And if you need to write10pages in a week,schedule yourself to write2pages a dayfor5days.____16____Vary your study techniques____17____Variety will keep you interested in your studies and make your time more efficient.By studying with different techniques,your brain will process the information differently,thus increasing the chance of keeping the information.A.Find a suitable place.B.Get rid of distractions.C.Break the task into manageable parts.D.Don’t limit yourself to one study method.E.Be sure to have all the materials needed to workF.Set a schedule to make full use of your study time.G.Besides,schedule yourself to study different subjects.第三部分完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）Nowadays,media and information coming so quickly on the Internet,kids are used to getting things in quick ways,but refuse to read a book.I remember the wonderful____18____when I realized my6-year-old niece could read.One weekend,it was bedtime and we were reading Make Way for Ducklings.She____19____a few words.I was____20____to see that she was enjoying reading.Two years later she moved in with me.Our bedtimes were filled with various stories.Now she is11.However,she is more interested in Tik Tok than in any of the stories.And____21____she certainly can read,she really doesn’t like to unless I threaten to____22____her iPad.As an educator and writer,this is____23____for me.To my regret,reading has become a ____24____in my family.“Don’t worry too much,”educational consultant Waldinger____25____me when I called to discuss my pain.“As digital natives,our children simply have a____26____relationship with the written word from that of us who came from the typewriter____27____”,suggested Waldinger “Kids do lots of incidental(伴随的)____28____,”she told me.“Playing video games and watching a movie like Frozen with closed captions(字幕)are reading.And so is using a(n)____29____to make cookies.”She said,“You just can’t expect kids to sit down and____30____the encyclopedia(百科全书)like we did back in the day.Accept the fact,stop____31____over reading,and just give children more____32____to read,whether digital or printed.”18.A.schedule bination C.moment ment19.A.sounded B.spelt C.exchanged D.spread20.A.sorry B.delighted C.fortunate D.upset21.A.because B.while C.if D.until22.A.operate B.program C.remove D.negate23.A.pleasant B.beneficial C.distant D.painful24.A.routine B.property C.vitality D.disagreementforted B.favored C.blamed D.depressed26.A.tolerant B.different C.ideal D.precise27.A.era B.region C.mass D.volume28.A.cooking B.setting C.calling D.reading29.A.electricity B.onion C.recipe D.pan30.A.looked up B.dug up C.built up D.picked31.A.getting B.fighting C.taking D.falling32.A.encouragement B.expectation C.arrangement D.version。

The only two people who came from my previous school were two girls,Donna Davis and Sakjinda Rai, but I developed little friendship with them. At first I was scared（害怕的）and looked stupid. But after a few months, I tried keeping my arms open and making friends with people around me.After an unsuccessful relationship with Amit Sharmar, who ran away from me whenever I said hello to him, Sher Bhachu joined me, and we seemed to have a bit in common. So I made my first friend, and I wasn’t on my own any more! But after a few days, he broke his leg, and was off for a couple of months! I was on my own again!Anyway, when Sher finally did return, I introduced him to another friend of mine, Graeme Parker. They got on like a house on fire, but unfortunately that little threesome（三人一组）only managed to last about a week or two before they had a bit of fight, and poor Graeme went his own way. Shortly after that we met and later joined with another gang. Others later joined at various stages, including: Chris Elemen, Venay Maru, Amandeep Vidhani, Yaser Ghauri and Paul Barrance. It was with these people that I spent most of my life in senior high school.1. Who was the author’s first friend in the new school?A. Donna Davis.B. Amit Sharmar.C. Graeme Parker.D. Sher Bhachu.2.

People give their loved ones or friends friendship bracelets (手镯) and other gifts to celebrate their friendship. The culture of friendship bracelets is as old as even thousands of years.After the WWII, the Para cord (绳子) bracelets became very popular. These were also known as survival bracelets. One of the main reasons is that it was often used for a rescue (援救) purpose. Para cord, used in the parachute (降落伞),does not wear away easily and is strong and durable. Because of its light weight, people could carry it along easily. If required, it could be made a very long rope and be used as a rescue rope. Hunters used it to find their way that they could return without getting lost.Today there are all kinds of Para cord bracelets, made of colored strings. Girls like thinner and colorful bracelets. Many choose to make the bracelets by themselves for their dear friends. This not only appeals more to the feelings of people but also makes them know how much their friends mean to them. People keep the bracelets given by their friends long. Many people choose colored strings keeping the depth of their friendship in mind. White, yellow, orange and red show the different levels of friendship. Pure friendship is shown in white; the red color means love. An orange friendship bracelet is given to show strong friendship and yellow as simple friendship. Today, not only do the young people sport these friendship bracelets, but even the old do.Does friendship have an age? Yes. Friendship is like the wine, and the older and stronger your friendship is.4. What is the main reason for Para cord bracelets becoming popular?A. They can bring you good luck.B. They are colorful and beautiful.C. They can be used as rescue ropes.D. They are used in the parachute.5. What does the underlined word “durable” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Beautiful.B. Long-lasting.C. Important.D. Expensive.6. What kind of bracelet shows your friendship is strong?A. The white friendship bracelet.B. The red friendship bracelet.C. The orange friendship bracelet.D. The yellow friendship bracelet.7. This passage mainly tells readers .A. the culture of friendship braceletsB. the importance of friendshipC. how to celebrate Friendship DayD. the friendship bracelet is a good gift三、任务型阅读:（10×1）When it comes to the world of computers, green computing is becoming popular. But what is green computing?The term “green computing” is one that is being used in many different markets and areas all over the world in today’s global technology. However, many computer users aren’t sure what it means. Green computing is act ually quite easy to explain and to do—it is basically learning to use computer resources more efficiently to protect the environment as well as saving energy. The main goal is to reduce the use of energy and materials that harm the environment.Green computing started as early as 1992, when the EPA created Energy Star program that improved computing equipment and technologies. Because of this program sleep pattern appeared and many computer users began to adopt this policy to help save energy when they were not using their computers. In October of 2006, Energy Star made the requirements stricter for computers. Because of these new requirements, there are over 20 states that have now set up a special recycling program for old computers to help with green computing.Many of today’s IT systems are beginning to rely on both people and hardware to help push their computer systems toward a more green computing system to help both the company and others. This is a hard balance to achieve, as it has to satisfy users. Many companies are learning the best ways that they can go greener when it comes to their computing and also help their business in the process. While many home computer users may not be quite as familiar with green computing as large firms, this term is starting to become more mainstream all around the world.Green ComputingDefinition Learning to make (1) use of computer resources in order to save energy and protect the environment.Main goal To reduce the use of energy and materials that do (2) to the environment.(3) __ ●In 1992 the EPA created Energy Star program, which madecomputing equipment and technologies (4) ________.●Then sleep pattern appeared and many computer users (5)the policy to save energy.●In 2006 Energy Star made the computer requirements (6) .●At (7) , over 20 states have set up a special recyclingprogram for old computers.Present (8)___ ●Green computing has to make users (9) .●Green computing is becoming more mainstream (10) theworld.1. better2. harm/damage3.

Most people will find it much easier to go for a jog (慢跑) around the park.As well as being easy to do, jogging is also quite cheap compared to most other sports. You don't need to buy expensive clothes if you're just going running around the park or on the beach.There is one thing, however, that you will have to spend money on, and that's your running shoes.Remember that you are looking for something that will support your feet and protect you from injury.They can be expensive, but if they are of good quality, they will last you a long time.As for jogging, the secret is to start slowly,and not to do too much at the beginning —especially if you haven't had any exercise for a long time. Try a mixture of walking and running for ten minutes about three times a week at first. Once you are happy to do that, you can then start to increase the amount you do gradually. After a few months you should hope to be able to run at a reasonable speed for twenty minutes three or four times a week.It's important that you feel comfortable with whatever you do. If you do, you'll start to enjoy it and will probably keep doing it. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, you'll probably stop after a short time and return to your bad habits.Remember that training too hard is not very effective. Research has shown that somebody who exercises twice as long or twice as hard as another person doesn't become twice as fit.1. What is the author's opinion on the exercise bike?A. It is a waste for most people.B. It is a helper for most people.C. It is unaffordable for most people.D. It is easy to learn for most people.2. According to the author, what is very important to a jogger?A. Listening to expert advice.B. Keeping on jogging every day.C. Having a pair of good jogging shoes.D. Running for twenty minutes each time.3. What does the author mainly explain in Paragraph 3?A. Why it is easy to go for a jog.B. What kind of sport jogging is.C. How to go jogging in a right way.D. When is the best time to go for a jog.4. What do we know from the last paragraph?A. Good exercise stops bad habits.B. A partner helps a lot in exercise.C. Feeling good keeps one's exercise going.D. The more you exercise, the fitter you will be.BReading can be asocial activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website book crossing. com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share.BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pedersen, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, "The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both."Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops.Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it.E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossers to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Pedersen says the idea is for people not to be self ish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the real but not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has nearly two million members and has more than thirteen million books traveling.5.Why does the author mention book groups in Paragraph 1?A. To explain what they are.B. To introduce BookCrossing.C. To stress the importance of reading.D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.6.What does the underlined word it in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The book.B. An adventure.C. A public place.D. The identification number.7.What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A. Meet other readers to discuss it.B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.C. Pass it on to another reader.D. Mail it back to its owner.8.What is the best title for the text?A. Online Reading: A Virtual TourB. Electronic Books:A New TrendC. A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD. A Website Links People Through Books二、阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Calling it a stroller sounds a bitunfair because it is more like a high-tech product that can independently shake your baby tosleep, assist users on uphill and downhill slopes, and continuously monitor the surroundingenvironment through a series of sensors and cameras. It may look like a regular stroller atfirst sight, but Ella is actually a small battery powered vehicle powered by AI.The Glüxkind Ella offers adaptive push and brake (制动) assistance, making it easy to handle uphill and downhill situations even when the bottom drawer of the stroller is filledwith groceries. The stroller’s self-driving capabilities allow it to travel with no need forhuman control, while the parent or caretaker communicates with the baby. It uses a set ofonboard 360-degree sensors to find and follow the sidewalk and avoid roadblocks whileremaining within arm’s reach of the user by finding out the distance of their smartphone.When the baby is inside. Ella can be put into Rock-My-Baby mode (模式), gently moving back and forth by itself. To help the baby fall asleep easier, the stroller features abuilt-in white noise generator.A three hour battery charge is reportedly enough for about six hours of use. TheGlüxkind Ella can be paired with Android and Apple smartphones and can be monitored byGPS (Global Positioning System), so you can keep track of its locations at all times.If the most advanced AI-powered stroller sounds like a dream come true, you’ll only have to wait a few more months to own one. Well, you’ll also need to put up a $200 downpayment on one and be prepared to pay at least $3. 800 for the base model.32. What can Ella do when a baby is inside?A. Take pictures of him or her.B.

[ ☆难度：中等]Austrian-based food-tech startup Revo Foods announced this week that its 3D-printed vegan fish filet (素食鱼片) was heading to European grocery store shelves — a first for 3D-printed food. According to the company’s September 12 press release, the arrival of the “Filet” represents a key moment in sustainable food, with 3D-printed consumables ready for industrial mass production. Revo Foods Filet is likely to be just the first of many other such 3D-printed edible (可食用的) products to soon hit the market.“Despite dramatic losses of coral reefs and increasing levels of poisons and micro plastic polluting fish, consumer demand for seafood has skyrocketed in recent decades,”the company announcement explains, “One promising solution to provide consumers with sustainable alternatives that do not contribute to overfishing is vegan seafood. The key to the success of these products lies in recreating a real taste that appeals to consumers. ”The composition of the Filet provides a meat-like texture (口感). 12 ingredients (成分) compose Revo’s Filet, such as pea proteins, plant oils and algae extracts. With its high protein and Ornega-3 contents, eating a Revo Filet is still very much like eating regular salmon. And thanks to its plant-based ingredients, the Filet has a three week shelf life, a significant improvement over regular salmon products.“With the milestone of industrial-scale 3D food printing, we are entering a creative food revolution, an era where food is being made exactly according to the customers’ needs,” Revo Foods CEO Robin Simsa said via this week’s announcement.While Revo’s products are currently only available for European markets, the company says it is actively working to expand its availability across the globe, with Simsa telling PopSci the company hopes to enter US markets around 2025.1.

What is special about Revo’s Filet?A. It is a kind of seafood.B. It has a longer shelf life.C. It has the same taste as salmon.D. It has no food quality problems.3.

But tell them it’s a competition for the ugliest lawn, and suddenly they may be more willing to give up using the sprinkler(洒水器).This clever strategy was employed by the government of Gotland, Sweden’s largest island located in the Baltic Sea. Gotland sees its population double during the summer months as tourists arrive. This puts pressure on the island’s already-limited water supply, which is projected to decrease by 13% between 2021 and 2050, as demand is expected torise by 40% by 2045.The campaign, called “Gotland’s Ugliest Lawn”, urged homeowners to compete for the saddest, deadest and brownest yard. They were asked to avoid watering for an entire season, then post a photo of the lawn using a label that linked it to the campaign.Mimmi Gibson, the acting marketing and brand manager at Region Gotland, said that “the ugliest lawn contest would remind the islanders not to waste water, and to talk about ways they can adapt their gardens to suit the existing conditions and the climate crisis”.The winner for this year was announced in mid-August, and it’s Marcus Norstrom, who did not water his lawn once throughout the entire summer. His photo shows a large brown space with some sparse yellow grasses sticking out——the kind of yard in which you would not want to walk barefoot (赤脚地)for risk of hurting your feet. The government must be feeling pleased ; its strategy has worked.It’s an interesting strategy which attempts to normalize and even celebrate dead grass.It is reasonable to assume that the more people see it around their communities, the more acceptable it will become. They may also grow curious when they realize there are other ways to create and maintain an attractive-looking yard, even without irrigation(灌溉).1. What’s the aim of the competition for the ugliest lawn?A. To reduce the waste of water.B. To limit the growth of local lawns.C. To strengthen citizens’ friendship.D. To enhance citizens, health awareness.2. What do the numbers in paragraph 2 show?A. Gotland is rich in water resources.B. People will have no water to drink in 2050.C. Gotland is faced with serious lack of water.D. The population of Gotland grows faster and faster.3. What’s Mimmi Gibson’s attitude towards the ugliest lawn contest?A. Unconcerned.B. Doubtful.C. Unclear.D. Positive.4. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A. To explain the success of the strategy.B. To tell citizens the danger of the ugliest lawn.C. To discuss why it’s dangerous to waste water.D. To show citizens what the ugliest lawn looks like.限时训练3、学校生活类1.你校正在就是否允许在校园安装自动售货机（vending machine）征求同学们的意见。
