It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.Decibels (分贝) measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect.Some scientists have proposed setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales.A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that louder noises can seriously injure some animals. The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales' ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected.Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds object to a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists suspect that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.56. According to the passage, which of the following is increasingly dangerous tosea creatures?A. The man-made noises.B. The noises made by themselves.C. The sound of earthquakes.D. The sound of the ice-breaking.57. Which of the following is discussed in the third paragraph?A. Different places with different types of noises.B. The very human ears sensitive to all types of noises.C. The same noise measured differently on land and in the ocean.D. The ocean animals' reaction to noises.58. As to the influence of noises on whales, which of the following statements is true?A. They are deaf to noises.B. Noises at a certain level may hurt them.C. They are easily confused by noises.D. Noises will limit their ability to reproduce.59. We can know from the passage that many researchers think that the noise limitof one hundred twenty decibels would _____.A. prevent them from doing their research workB. benefit them a lot in their research workC. do good to their healthD. increase the industrial output60. According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future?A. They will try their best to decrease noise.B. They will work hard to cut down noise pollution.C. They will study the effect of different noises.D. They will protect animals from harmful noises.BSurprisingly, no one knows how many children receive education in English hospitals, still less the content or quality of that education. Proper records are just not kept. We know that more than 850,000 children go through hospital each year, and that every child of school age has a legal right to continue to receive education while in hospital. We also know there is only one hospital teacher to every 1,000 children in hospital.Little wonder the latest survey concludes that the extent and type of hospital teaching available differ a great deal across the country. It is found that half the hospitals in England which admit children have no teacher. A further quarter have only a part-time teacher. The special children’s hospitals in major cit ies do best; general hospitals in the country and holiday areas are worst off. From this survey, one can estimate that fewer than one in five children have some contact with a hospital teacher—and that contact may be as little as two hours a day. Most children interviewed were surprised to find a teacher in hospital at all. They had not been prepared for it by parents or their own school. If there was a teacher they were much more likely to read books and do math or number work; without a teacher they would only play games.Reasons for hospital teaching range from preventing a child falling behind and maintaining the habit of school to keeping a child occupied, and the latter is often all the teacher can do. The position and influence of many teachers was summed up when parents referred to them as “the library lady〞or just “the helper〞. Children tend to rely on concerned school friends to keep in touch with school work. Several parents spoke of requests for work being ignored or refused by the school. Once back at school children rarely get extra teaching, and are told to catch up as best they can.Many short-stay child-patients catch up quickly. But schools do very little toease the anxiety about falling behind expressed by many of the children interviewed.61. Which of the following statements is true?A. Every child in hospital receives some teaching.B. Not enough is known about hospital teaching.C. Hospital teaching is of poor quality.D. The special children's hospitals are worst off.62. It can be inferred from the latest survey that________.A. hospital teaching across the country is similarB. each hospital has at least one part-time teacherC. all hospitals surveyed offer education to childrenD. only one-fourth of the hospital have full-time teacher63. The hospital teachers are found________.A. not welcomed by the children and their parentsB. unnecessaryC. not quite helpfulD. capable64. In order to catch up with their school work, children in hospital usually turn to________.A. hospital teachersB. schoolmatesC. parentsD. school teachers65. We can conclude from the passage that the author is________.A. unfavorable towards children receiving education in hospitalsB. in favor of the present state of teaching in hospitalsC. unsatisfied with the present state of hospital teachingD. satisfied with the results of the latest surveyCIt is a matter of common observation that although money income keeps going up over the years, we never seem to become richer. Prices are rising continuously. This condition is what we call inflation: the money supply is becoming inflated so that each unit of it becomes less valuable. We have got used to higher and higher rates of inflation in recent years. What could be bought twenty years ago for one pound now costs well over 2 pounds. And at present this rate of inflation seems to be rising rather than falling. If in the real world our money incomes go up at the same rate as prices do. One might think that inflation doesn’t matter. But it does .When money is losing value it also loses one of the qualities of a good money—stability of value. It is no longer acceptable as a store of value; and it becomes an unsuitable means of delayed payment. Nobody wants to hold a wasting possession, so people try to get rid of money as quickly as possible. Inflation therefore simply simulates〔刺激〕our spending and discourages saving.66.From the passage we can know that inflation is a situation in which________.A. everyone’s incomes riseB. money will hold its valueC. we can watch our money growD. money constantly loses its value 67.In the writer’s view, if incomes and prices rise at the same rate, ________.A. inflation maybe still be a problemB. we have nothing to worry aboutC. inflation is no longer a problemD. we will become richer and richer 68.Under inflation people are likely to ________.A. go to the bank more often than usualB. save more money since their incomesriseC. spend money quickly rather than to save itD. keep money at home instead of going to banks69.We can conclude according to the passage that ________.A. the writer is a government officialB. the writer is worried about inflationC. the writer encourages people to spend moneyD. the writer has become richer because of inflation70. Which of the following words is omitted at the end of the underlined sentence “But it does〞?A. Matter.B. Goes.C. Rises.D. Falls.Part 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.D. R. Gaul Middle School is in Union, Maine, a blueberry-farming town where the summer fair finds kids competing in pig scrambles and pie-eating contests.Gaul, with about 170 seventh- and eighth-graders, has its own history of lower level academic achievement. One likely reason: Education beyond the basic requirements hasn't always been a top priority for families who've worked the same land for generations. Here, few adults have college degrees, and outsiders (teachers included) are often kept at a respectful distance.Since , Gaul's students have been divided into four classes, each of them taught almost every subject by two teachers. The goal: To find common threads across disciplines to help students create a big picture that gives fresh meaning and context to their classwork -- and sparks motivation for learning.Working within state guidelines, each team makes its individual schedules and lesson plans, incorporating non-textbook literature, hands-on lab work and field trips. If students are covering the Civil War in social studies, they're reading The Red Badge of Courage or some other period literature in English class. In science, they study the viruses and bacteria that caused many deaths in the war.Team teaching isn't unusual. About 77 percent of middle schools now employ some form of it, says John Lounsbury, consulting editor for the National Middle School Association. But most schools use four- or five-person teams, which Gaul tried before considering two-person teams more effective. Gaul supports the team concept by "looping" classes (跟班) so that the same two teachers stick with the same teens through seventh and eighth grades. Combining teams and looping creates an extremely strong bond between teacher and student. It also, says teacher Beth Ahlholm, "allows us to build an excellent relationship with parents."Ahlholm and teammate Madelon Kelly are fully aware how many glazed looks they see in the classroom, but they know 72 percent of their eighth-graders met Maine's reading standard last year -- double the statewide average. Only 31 percent met the math standard, still better than the state average (21 percent). Their students alsobeat the state average in writing and science. And in, Gaul was one of 47 schools in the state to see testing gains of at least 20 percent in four of the previous five years, coinciding roughly with team teaching's arrival.Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Not long ago, people thought babies were notable to learn things until they were five or six months old.Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life.Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment.They say a baby will smile if her mother does something the baby likes.A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregiver.This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings.One study shows that babies can learn before they are born.The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant woman.Then, they played a recording of a short story.On the day the baby was born, the researchers attempted to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother.They did this by placing a device in the mouth of the newborn baby.The baby would hear the story if he moved his mouth one way.If the baby moved his mouth the other way, he would hear a different story.The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born.They say the baby would move his mouth so he could hear the story again and again.Another study shows how mothers can strongly influence social development and language skills in their children.Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years.The researchers attempted to measure the sensitivity of the mothers.The women were considered sensitive i f they supported their children’s activities and did not interfere unnecessarily.They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old.Also, the researchers observed the women for signs of depression.The children of depressed women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer from depression.The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear.These children also were less cooperative and had more problems dealing with other people.The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence development of their children.Children did better when their mothers were caring, even when they suffered from depression.81.What does the experiment in which newborn babies heard the stories prove? 〔no more than 5 words〕82.In the passage, what factors are mentioned that influence intelligence development in babies? 〔no more than 8 words〕83.Which group of children did the worst in tests of language skills?〔no more than 11 words〕84.What is the main idea of the passage? 〔no more than 8 words〕SECTION C〔25 marks〕Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese.上周日,你班开展以“美化城市环境,倡导低碳生活〞为宗旨的志愿者活动。

It turned 48 to be one of my life’s most valuable lessons.This summer, I attended a dance camp organized by the high school dance team. We went to learn new tricks, techniques and knowledge about the art of dance. I arrived at 49 camp, being very confident of my ability to be a good dancer. My rich experience and long time in the dance team qualified me for the top class, 50I felt was a right decision.51 , when the class began I realized that I did not know as much as I thought I did. It seemed as if every girl in the class could perform challenging jumps, leaps and other difficult tricks 52 me. I became discouraged and wanted to quit immediately. My frustration kept me from doing my best. As a result the final performance was nothing but embarrassing. On the stage I completely forgot how to dance and most of the time I just stood there, looking stupid, 53 the other girls performed like professionals. 54 embarrassing it was!From this experience I concluded that people are sometimes not as good at something as they think they are; there is always someone out there that can do it better than you. I also learned that 55 is always room for improvement, and I should do my best whatever thesituation is. I know if I do not try my best, I will fail evenbefore I begin.(232 words)PART III READING 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 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one thatfits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.ACosmo Books Ltd.,Hertford Estate,Rickmansworth,Middx.14, Woodman Road,Two Bridges,West Sussex.25th FebruaryDear Sir,Just over six months ago, I saw an advertisement in the MorningMail for a set of the complete works of William Shakespeare. Your company, Cosmo books Ltd., offered this set (eight books of playsand two books of poetry) at what was claimed to be a ‘remarkable’price: fifteen pounds and fifty pence, including postage and packing.I had wanted a set of Shakespeare’s plays and poems for some time, and these books, in red imitation leather, looked particularly attractive; so I sent for them.Two weeks later, the books arrived, together with a set of the complete works of Charles Dickens which I had not ordered. So I returned the Dickens books to you, with a cheque for fifteen pounds and fifty pence for the works of Shakespeare. Two more weeks passed. Then there arrived on my door step a second set of the works of Shakespeare, the same set of novels by Dickens and a six book set of the plays of Moliere, in French. Since I do not read French, these were of no use to me at all. However, I could not afford to post all these books back to you, so I wrote to you at the end of August oflast year, instructing you to come and collect all the books that I did not want, and asking you not to send any other books untilfurther notice.You did not reply to that letter. Instead you sent me a bill for forty two pounds , and a set of the plays of Schiller, in German. Since then, a new set of books has arrived every two weeks, theworks of Goethe, the poems of Milton, the plays of Strindberg; Ihardly know what I have. The books are still all in their boxes, in the garage, and my car has to stand in the rain outside.I have no room for any more books, and even if I read from now until the Last Judgment, I should not finish reading all the books that you have sent me.Please send no more books, send no more bills, send no more angry letters demanding payment. Just send one large lorry and take all the books away, leaving me only with the one set of the complete works of Shakespeare for which I have paid.(413 words)Yours faithfully,SIMON WALKER56. Simon Walker wrote the letter to ________A. show his anger to Cosmo Books Ltd..B. complain about getting books he did n’t want.C. advise readers not to order books from Cosmo Books Ltd..D. urge for the final solution to the problem with the unwanted books.57. The advertisement that Mr. Walker saw in the Morning Mail wasfor ____A. unlimited number of Cosmo Books.B. a set of 10 books of the works of Shakespeare.C. fifteen pounds and fifty pence.D. a book containing all the plays and poems of Shakespeare.58. Mr. Walker answered the advertisement because ________A. he wanted a set of Shakespeare’s works which was a goodbargainB. he claimed that the books were being offered at a remarkable price.C. he had ordered the set and had been waiting for them to come for some time.D. the set he already had was not particularly attractive.59. It can be inferred that _______A. Cosmo Books have sent bills for books that they have not sent.B. Mr. Walker took some action after receiving the books hedid not order.C. Mr. Walker hasn’t received the books that he ordered.D. Several sets of books have been sent to Mr. Walker free of charge.60. The tone of the letter is that of _______A. bitternessB. respectC. annoyanceD. humorBA new study of 8,000 young people in the journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy love〔早恋(zǎo liàn)〕may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression. The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self〞. According to the study, even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship〞, this “loss of self〞 is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They won’t tell that to their parents.Dr. Marian Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young people to build strong friendship and a strong sense of self. She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.Parents should watch for signs of depression—eating or mood changes—and if they see signs from their daughters or sons, they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity〔成熟(chéngshú)〕gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.(289 words)61. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Puppy love may bring young people depression.B. Parents should forbid their children’s love.C. Romance is a two-edged sword for adults.D. Romance is good for young people.62. Which of the following is more likely to have depression?A. Young people who have a strong sense of self.B. Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior.C. Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.D. Careless parents whose children are deep in love.63. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.B. The older a woman is, the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.C. Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.D. Early love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents.64. What’s the author’s attitude towards puppy love?A. Confused.B. Scared.C. Uninterested.D. Disapproving.65. Dr. Marian does NOT suggest parents’ encouraging their ki ds to ______.A. keep close to their friendsB. attend more interesting activitiesC. chat more on lineD. spend more time with their familyCFor some minutes, all was quiet in the street. Then from across the street someone came walking.It looked like a woman of middle height, dressed in a big raincoat, a soft hat and rubber-soled boots or shoes, and making little sound while walking. No one was in sight. It was a street with two rows of about fifty small houses and there were three lamps on either side. The lamp nearest to the child’s house could be seenclearly, but the others were almost hidden by the smoky air. A car passed the end of the street and its lights showed faintly,but clearly enough to show the smooth skin of the woman’s face. The car disappeared as the woman, wrapped up in her coat, reached the doorway of the child’s house. She put a key in the lock quickly, pushed the door open and stepped inside, then closed the doorwithout looking round. She began to breathe hard.She leaned against the door for a moment, then straightened up as if with an effort, and walked towards the door of the front room,the passage leading to the kitchen, and the narrow staircase. She hesitated outside the door, then went up the stairs quickly but with hardly a sound. There was enough light from the narrow hall to show the four doors along a small landing(楼梯平台). She pushed each door open in turn and shone a torch inside, and the light fell upon beds, walls, furniture, a bathroom hand-basin, a mirror which flashed brightness back; but this was not what the woman was looking for. She turned away and went downstairs, and hesitated again at the foot of the stairs, then turned towards the kitchen. Clearly there was nothing there, or in the small washroom that she wanted. Two rooms remained; the front room and a smaller one next to it. She openedthe front room door. After a moment, she saw the child’s bed andthe child.(337 words)66. The lights of the car passing the end of the street showed that ______.A. a woman was driving the carB. someone was standing by a street lamp.C. a man and a woman were walking up the street.D. a woman was walking by herself up the street.67. After the woman closed the front door, she ___________.A. looked round quicklyB. started breathing againC. rested before movingD. walked straight towards the front door68. Once she was in the house, the woman behaved as if what she was looking for ____A. might be in the kitchenB. was more likely to be upstairsC. would be easily seenD. would look frightening to a child69. When she was upstairs, the woman _______.A. saw that there was a wash-basin in each roomB. noticed a mirror which she was looking forC. found a torch in one of the roomsD. opened four different doors70. Which of the following words can describe the story?A.BoringB.BreathtakingC.RomanticD. AmusingPART IV WRITING (45marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.You have probably heard a lot about goal setting and time management. Usually, once the goal is set up, it requires a lot of time and effort to achieve it.Sometimes playing a goal detective makes it more fun to reach your goal. To figure out what your goals are is based on how you spend your time. It’s a bit like those psychological profiles (心理(xīnlǐ)剖析) you hear about in movies and on television, but this time you will do it by yourself. You will find out how you spend almost every minute of the day. Normally you probabl y don’t write down how you spend each of those minutes, but if you were a detective and watching yourself, you would be writing downeverything you did and when you did it. So, writing down what you do is the first step to be your own goal detective.Now that you know how you spend your time, the next step is to sort the time. Things like eating, sleeping, working and playing are the most obvious, but you can come up with as many as you want. Since you are being a detective, you will want to ask lots of questions about your activities in each of these categories. Here you use basic who, what, when, where and how questions to fill in information. For example, “Who did I spend time with?〞“Where did I spend the time?〞 are possible questions that you could ask yourself. When you have finished with the questions you ask, “Now WHY did I spend my time in that way?〞 The answer to this questionis the goal, or at least part of a set of goals that make you spend your time in that way.Whatever you find out about your daily activities, chances are that the exercise will be good for you. At the very least you will know what things you did in one day and why you did them.〔331 words〕Title: Becoming 71Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit.When Colonel Harland Sanders retired at the age of 65, he had little to show for himself, except an old Caddie roadster, a $105 monthly pension(养老金) check ,and a recipe for chicken.Knowing he couldn’t live on his pension, he took his chicken recipe in hand, got behind the wheel of his van 〔货车(huòchē)〕,and set out to make his fortune.His first plan was to sell his chicken recipe to restaurant owners, who would in turn give him a residual〔酬金〕for every piece of chicken they sold—5 cents per chicken.The first restaurateur he called on turned him down.So did the second.So did the third.In fact, the first 1,008 sales calls Colonel Sanders made ended in rejection.Still, he continued to call on owners as he traveled across the USA, sleeping in his car to save money.Finally number 1,009 gave him first “yes〞.After two years of making daily sales he had signed up a total of five restaurants.Still the Colonel pressed on , knowing that he had a great chicken recipe and that someday the idea would catchon .Of course, you know how the story ends.The idea did catch on.By 1963 the Colonel had 600 restaurants across the country selling his secret recipe of Kentucky Fried Chicken 〔with ll herbs and spices 〕.In 1964 he was bought out by future Kentucky governor John Brown.Even though the sale made him a multi-millionaire, he continued to represent and promote KFC until his death in 1990.(284 words)81.

2021届湖南省娄底市双峰一中高三上学期英语第一次月考试题

2021届湖南省娄底市双峰一中高三上学期英语第一次月考试题

2021届湖南省娄底市双峰一中高三上学期英语第一次月考试题第二部分:阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

AAnyone can book a trip, but not everyone can plan the best adventure that's affordable and fun. Here are tips that we'd like to share with you about hotels.Check Distances on a MapIt's not uncommon for hotels to slightly exaggerate (夸大) their closeness to attractions around town. If being close to a particular airport is important for your trip, confirm distances on Google Maps before you book a hotel.Be polite to the StaffA little niceness goes a long way, especially with hotel staff that has to deal with difficult guests on a regular basis. When you check in, simply say hello to the cleaning staff when you pass them in the hall. This is not only common politeness, but it also increases your chances of getting perks (额外待遇) during your stay.Skip the Package DealsTo appeal to new guests, some hotels will offer themed package deals (主题套餐) that sound exciting but may not be worth it. Sometimes these packages include things you don’ t want or need and the special rate could be higher than the regular rate.Ask about ParkingEspecially when you stay in large cities, parking costs really add up.

No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent.Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick Mclntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods. Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources (资源).But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, Mclntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development.The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage. The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness of soil, and the timing of snowmelt (融雪). Since the 1930s, Mclntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season.24. What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. The seriousness of big-tree loss in California.B. The increasing variety of California big trees.C. The distribution of big trees in California forests.D. The influence of farming on big trees in California.25. Which of the following is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees?A. Ecological studies of forests.B. Banning woodcutting.C. Limiting housing development.D. Fire control measures.26. What is a major cause of the water shortage according to Mclntyre?A. Inadequate snowmelt.B. A longer dry season.C. A warmer climate.D. Dampness of the air.27. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. California's Forests: Where Have All the Big Trees Gone?B. Cutting of Big Trees to Be Prohibited in California SoonC. Why Are the Big Trees Important to California Forests?D. Patrick Mclntyre: Grow More Big Trees in CaliforniaCI believe that, as a doctor, I should always get a blanket for my patients who need one. Yes I know there are other people who can do this. I can ask a nurse or an orderly to do it, but I believe that I should do it. So several times a day, while working in our emergency department, I leave my patients' bedside, get them a nice warm blanket and cover them up, before continuing on my day.Which brings me back to why I believe I should offer to bring my patients a blanket. To me it is the first step in communicating to the person that my priority is his or her comfort, both physical and emotional. It is a simple act that acknowledges my desire to meet their basic needs as a patient. It may be an overused expression but I want to treat my patients the way I would want my family members taken care of. This behavior was also modeled for me when I was a patient.Shortly after college I was involved in a serious accident while working in an ambulance as a volunteer. The short story is that I broke my femur (股骨), the large bone in my thigh, and my recovery required a total of four surgeries over a year or so. The surgeon, Dr. David, who performed the last three operations, usually did his rounds late at night.He was a brilliant and talented surgeon who reminded me in appearance of a chain-smoking Einstein. He would ask about my pain and my mental state, but what I remember most is his offering to bring me French fries the next time he visited. I felt that he cared about me and, more importantly, understood what I was going through. He connected with me, and I trusted and obeyed everything he told me to do.Getting a blanket and placing it on my patient is, in the end, a check and balance for me. I have the power to order hundreds of tests and treatments. I strive to always be right ( or at least never wrong). And on not so rare occasions, I help save a life. But in the end, if I have not made that connection with my patient, if I have not shown them I understand their needs, then I have failed them as a physician and as a person.28. According to the author, what does the performance of giving blankets to patients mean?A. It may be an overused expression although he doesn't care about it.B. It gives him the power to order tests and treatments.C. It is helpful to save a life when you are in trouble.D. It helps communicate his care towards his patients.29. The author mentioned his own experience as a patient, which of the following is NOT his intention?A. Showing his gratitude for the surgeon.B. Demonstrating his action of giving blankets.C. Implying the similar function of bringing French fries and giving blankets to patients.D. Claiming the importance of patients' trust toward doctors.30. What does the last sentence ( paragraph 5) imply?A. The author felt regretful for not making connection with his patients by bringing them blankets.B. A good physician should understand patients' needs.C.It’s important to communicate doctors' care to their patients.D.The author failed as a person as he didn't show his understanding for his patients' needs.31. The passage is mainly about ________.A. emphasizing the importance of sincere care and understanding of patientsB. emphasizing how to build a bridge between doctors and patientsC. emphasizing that a small gesture can warm the patient’s heartD. emphasizing how to improve the doctor-patient relationship.DThe new SafeCap from Ford tracks head movements to determine if a wearer is about to nod off.The trucking industry is a demanding field where drivers have to cover many miles to meet tight deadlines, sometimes requiring them to drive through the night---a risky practice for drivers. Research has found 11 percent of Brazilian lorry drivers, who drive more than 60, 000 miles per year on average, have been in an accident over the past two years. In celebration of60 years of truck production in Brazil, Ford is trying to help solve the problem by developinga hat that warns drivers that they might be falling asleep.It's called SafeCap, and it was produced in Sao Paulo by Ford and a creative agency called GTB. Together, they conducted research that figured out which head movements were standard for drivers doing their jobs and which were associated with nodding off. They developed software that can tell the difference and equipped a trucker hat with sensors ( 传感器) that warn the wearer through alarms, lights and vibrations (震动) that he may he nodding off. “SafeCap, which began as a local market project, continues to grow as we see potential around the world, " Ford’s head of sal es, marketing and service in Brazil, Oswaldo RamosSaid, "After we conclude our Brazilian tests, the goal is to share with other countries.”Ford is hoping that the reaction to Safe Cap is similar to what the automaker experienced earlier this year when it produced a crib (婴儿床) that imitated a car's movements and sounds to help children sleep. Demand for the crib made the company decide to make it available for purchase. SafeCap is still in production, and Ford is open to ideas from anyone who might be able to make it better and more effective.32. By what means can SafeCap determine whether the driver is sleepy?A. Observing the driver's head movements.B. Ringing an alarm immediately.C. Tracking the driver's brain activity.D. Communicating with the driver.33. What does the underlined words "the problem" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The long time of driving trucks.B. The busy schedule of truck drivers.C. Truckers having to drive at night.D. Truckers running into accidents.34. What can be learnt from the last two paragraphs?A. Ford produced SafeCap by itself.B. Noises from the cap keep drivers awake.C. SafeCap hasn’ t been on sale yet.D. The crib ended in failure.35. What's Oswaldo Ramos's attitude towards the future of SafeCap?A.Uncertain.B. Positive.C. Indifferent.D. Practical第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

However, while today’s edu cators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful---both in school and in life.Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and thento transcribe(转换) “those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboardand screen,” the study said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps childrennot only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot(发现)spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct then over time.“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spellingbecause we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functionalspelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge tochoose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”28.

According to Gabe Rothsclild, Emerald Valley’smayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes,expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky. What theyfound instead was a sky so brightened by the city’s lights that it darkened thelight of the meteors passing overhead.“My family was so frustrated,” admitted town resident Duane Co sby, “We wantedto make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointments. ”Astronomers---scientists who study stars and planets----have been complainingabout this problem for decades. They say that light pollution prevents them fromseeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past. They callon people and the government to take measures to fight against it.There is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers thatsuffers even more from light pollution. This population consists of birds, bats frogs, snakes, etc. For example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating(迁徙的)birds. According to the International Dark-Sky Association. “100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers. ”Countless more animals casualties(伤亡)result from the use of artificial lighting. Clearly, people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings, but some scientists think it can be harmful for humans, too. They worry that exposure to light wh ile sleeping can increase person’s chances of getting cancer.Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution. For years, Flagstaff, Arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory. Similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night.32.
