It’s a very interesting park, full of wild animals running freely.When we got there, we bought our tickets and drove into the park. We were very excited at the thought of going to see the lions. But to get to the lions’ place we had to go through the monkeys’ land first. And that was an unforgettable experience because they climbed all over the car, ate apples and bananas, and threw all kinds of things at us. They seemed very unfriendly.Anyway, we went on our way to the lions’ place where we had to lock ourselves in the car as we knew lions could be dangerous. A lion came up very close to us. Then it was on the bonnet (车盖). It looked calm but we felt terrified. Aunt Emily, who isn’t very brave, started to call for help. The kids started crying. Only my brother, George, stayed cool. I sounded the horn (喇叭) but nobody heard us.In the end a guard arrived in his car, and the lion just got off our car and started smelling the guard’s hand as if nothing was the matter.4．Which animal did the author want to see the most?A．The lions.B．The elephants.C．The monkeys.D．All of them. 5．Why did they lock themselves in the car?A．Because the monkeys might steal things.B．Because they were afraid of beingrobbed.C．Because the lions might be dangerous.D．Because something was wrong with the car.6．What does the underlined word “terrified” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Excited.B．Bored.C．Interested D．Scared 7．Who stayed calm among the visitors when they met the lion?A．Aunt Emily.B．George.C．The guard.D．The author.I woke up this morning and it was harder to get out of bed than usual.I didn’t sleep well because I was very nervous. I had many questions. What should I wear? What should I put in my schoolbag?I finally fell asleep around5:45 and my alarm(闹钟) started going off at 6.Wellit was time for me to start my first day of high school.My first class wasn’t too bad. I had to listen to my English teacher discuss the importance of themes and plots(主题和情节)，but otherwise it was a pretty relaxing class. My other classes that followed were pretty much the same. Not too many cliques( 小团体)had formed yet from what I could see but then again, lunch hadn’t started yet. Thinking about all of this made me wonder where I would sit during lunchtime. I was hoping I wouldn’t feel too lonely and would find a good table to sit at and enjoy my lunch.I chose a pizza and an orange soda. I was thankful that the food didn’t taste terrible. More importantly,I managed to find some new friends to sit with so I wouldn’t have that on my mind for the rest of the day I was just happy I had a great lunchtime.My first day at school was almost over when I felt a tap( 轻拍)on my shoulder in Chemistry class. It was a girl named Samantha asking if she could read my textbook with me because she left hers at home.I told her yes and invited her to sit next to me. When the class bell rang, we exchanged numbers to hang out after school.I felt like my day couldn’t have gone any smoother.I just had one more class to get through and I would be done for the day. 8．What happened to the author before her first day of high school?A．She almost didn’t sleep the night before.B．She kept asking her parents questions.C．She didn’t find her schoolbag.D．She failed to get up early.9．What did the author worry about before lunch?A．Not finding her way to the dining room.B．Having lunch with her English teacher.C．Not having enough time for lunch.D．Being alone during lunchtime. 10．What did Samantha ask the author to do?A．Send her home.B．Sit together with her.C．Share a textbook with her.D．Guide her to a classroom.11．Why did the author write the text?A．To describe her first high school day B．To encourage students to study hard.C．To talk about her favorite course.D．To introduce her new friends.It’s time to go back to high school. Students are excited about the new beginning. But for many kids, the first day is more about friends than classes, and maybe with good reason. On that day, the teacher takes attendance (考勤), hands out books, and describes the teaching plan. If a student hears the same things in seven classes, you can’t blame (责备) them forthinking it’s going to be another long year. When the high schoolers’ parents ask what they did in school, it’s pretty likely that the answer will be “Nothing.”It doesn’t have to be this way. Kids always want exciting changes, and you can give them a taste of how interesting your course will be. One English teacher asks students to write 77 words about what they want to get out of her class. Then she reads their responses (回答) out aloud. She keeps the responses until the last day of the school year when she hands them back to students so they can see if they achieved what they wanted. After encouraging kids with a year-long game, she begins the English course.On the first day of science, a teacher gives students 30 minutes to build something to improve people’s lives. A history teacher organizes a debate on whether Swiss cheese is better than cheddar. In math class, another teacher puts students in groups of three, and gives them six minutes to come up with as many answers as possible to the question, “What is math good for?”The new class activities are part of our school wide movement to improve the first day of classes. Many teachers choose to use creative ways to encourage kids from day one. And all students seem to enjoy the changes. Quite a few parents told me that their kids said, “I think English (or math or biology or Spanish) is going to be great!”12．Which best describes the class on the first day of school in paragraph 1?A．A bit strange.B．Too boring.C．Really wonderful.D．Quite challenging.13．What will the students find out in English class at the end of the school year?A．If their expectations have been realized.B．If their writing skills have improved.C．If they can understand the 77 words.D．If the teacher likes their responses.14．What do the teachers in paragraph 3 have in common?A．All ask students to work in groups.B．All choose to do something exciting.C．All hold discussions on teaching plans.D．All try to improve students’ creativity.15．What is the author’s altitude to the movement?A．She shows little interest in it.B．She feels surprised at it.C．She is worried about it.D．She supports it.二、七选五You would want to make a good impression when you introduce yourself on the first day in class at your school wouldn’t you? In this post, it will cover what to include in your introduction.The startYou can start with the obvious (明显的) information — your name. 16 You can be a bit creative by starting with something different. You can start with an unusual experience or an interesting fact about your city or an unusual hobby.17The city you come from. You may add a sentence or two about the city as well if there is something interesting to talk about.Maybe the city is known for its historic monuments (历史遗迹). 18 And if you’ve lived in different cities, you may briefly (简洁地) mention their names and,as mentioned above, a sentence or two on the most interesting parts of them.What are your interests and hobbies?Playing a sport? Traveling? Reading? Kite flying? Or something unusual,such as toy collecting? 19 For example if you’ ‘re into reading, mention your favorite books, your favorite author, and how reading has influenced you.Where can you help others?If you have a strength (长处) others in your class can benefit (受益) from, feel free to share it.For example, if you’re good at dancing, you can teach anyone who’s interested. If people know your strengths, they’ll readily turn to you when they need help. 20 And if you think helping others may be a waste of time, you should remember that you too may need help in areas where others are stronger.A．Where are you from?B．But that’s a common start.C．Where did you last attend the school?D．Maybe it’ s famous for its natural beauty.E．This is an easy way to make friends in high school.F．Describe small facts if you’ve followed the hobby with serious interest.G．The organizer may ask to include your family and the place you come from in the introduction.三、完形填空A long time ago, there lived a girl named Lilly.When she started going to school, sheshe knew all the 23 .Out of all the subjects, her favorite subject was sports.

AThere is a bar in our town with the name “The White Horse”. It 's Mr. Webster's. Few people went to the bar last year, but thi ngs are quite different now.There was a picture of a white horse on the door of the bar. T hen a stranger came in one day, drank something, looked aro und the bar and then said to Mr. Webster "Few people come here. Take down the picture of the white horse and put on a pi cture of a black horse instead.""But the name of the bar is ‘The White Horse’.” Mr. Webster s aid."Yes, but do it." The man said. Then he went out of the bar.[] Mr. Webster went to an artist and said, "I want a picture of a b lack horse."The next day a picture of a black horse was on the door of the bar instead of that of the white horse. Soon after the door op ened, a man came in and said, "There is a mistake on the doo r of your bar, and the picture is different from the name." The man looked, sat down and drank something.Then another man came in and said the same, and then anot her and another. A lot of people came in and said "The pictur e on your door is wrong." And they all stopped and drank in M r. Webster's bar.1. The stranger told Mr. Webster to take down the picture of t he white horse because he knew ________.A. people would come in and tell the picture was different from the nameB. the picture of the white horse wasn't good for the barC. people would understand the picture different from the nam eD. a picture of a black horse showed good luck2. Mr. Webster agreed with the stranger ________.A. because he knew he was an artistB. though he didn't like the black horseC. though he wasn't ready to do it at firstD. because he want ed to change the picture3. More and more people came to the bar because ________.A. it had changed its nameB. they wanted to show t he mistakeC. the bar had a black horseD. the black horse was bet ter than the white one4. From the story we have learned that ________.A. if your business isn't good, you'd better change the name o r the pictureB. when you have difficulty, don't give upC. if you are in trouble, you should take others' ideasD. when a good name is given, it can cause successBWhy do people lie? A person lies to get himself out of a difficu lt or stressful situation or he lies to gain some benefits. So ho w should we go about recognizing those common indications(暗示) that someone is lying? Let's begin.Scratching(抓，挠) the neck，throat or mouth. When a person tells lies，he will put himself under pressure and this tends to heat up th e whole body. In order to release this heat，the liar will start to scratch his body to release the heat. Shaking of a leg or a foot. When telling a lie，a person controls his facial expression because he knows that the other person is looking at his face. However，when one is totally focused on controlling the upper body，the lower body will get out of control，which is an indication of lying.Eye direction. When a person is trying to answer a hard quest ion，usually the eyes will be looking to the left to recall things from his memory. When one cannot find the answer，the eyes will shift to look at the right which indicates that he is constructing something that is usually a lie.For more techniques to become a more effective communicator，please refer to other articles on this website.5.The writer wrote this passage to ________.A．tell us how to detect lies through body languageB．tell us the importance of detecting liesC．prove that lies can be easily detectedD．explain why people tell lies6．According to the writer，the liar will start to scratch his body because ________. A．he feels very nervous B．he is trying to calm down C．he wants to draw attention to himself D．he wants to rel ease heat7．Where is this passage probably taken from?A．A website B．A magazine. C．A newspaper D ．A letter.CMany pet owners see their pets as family members. However ，when they have to go away on business or for some other rea sons, they feel guilty about it and wish they could do somethin g for their deeply loved pets. The Pet Hotel is set up especiall y for this reason.What do we offer?The Pet Hotel offers pets large rooms and the latest equipme nt. Like other hotel rooms，we offer color TVs，suitable beds，sofas and other pieces of furniture for pets.

广东省湛江市雷州市第二中学2024-2025学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题

广东省湛江市雷州市第二中学2024-2025学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题一、阅读理解The following list focuses on the top 4 not-to-be-missed world-class parks, helping tourists better explore the city of Atlanta.Centennial Olympic ParkCreated for the 1996 Olympics, this park is well worth a visit. Visitors can be entertained by free music and lots of public art. Photography lovers should take advantage of all the photo opportunities the park affords. One of the big draws especially for children in summer is the fountains. Sometimes there are free concerts and movies in the park. Overnight campgrounds are offered.Chattahooche Nature CenterVisitors can begin their exploration at the Discovery Center, where they can see Atlanta from the top. There’s also a river boardwalk crossing the wetland area. Besides effortless and short-distance hiking paths, there is a variety of native wildlife as well. Don’t miss Wildlife Walk, where visitors can enjoy close and personal views of native animals and plants.Chastain Memorial Park and AmphitheatreApart from the running and walking roads, there’re also tennis courts and fields for playing ball games. Looking for a spot to host a family get-together? This could be an ideal place as there`re many pavilions(亭子)available. Kids can play on the special playgrounds. Of course, there is an amphitheater, which hosts outdoor concerts during summer.Cloudland Canyon(峡谷)State ParkFeaturing a beautiful canyon, this park is one of the largest and most scenic parks in Atlanta. At the bottom of the canyon are two waterfalls, where visitors can watch the water run over the sandstone. There are several different hiking paths around the park, but some may take several hours. If you’d like to stay overnight, there are regular camp places.1．What do Centennial Olympic Park and Cloudland Canyon State Park have in common?A．They offer campsites.B．They have beautiful fountains.C．They host photo exhibitions regularly.D．They are equipped with top tennis courts. 2．What can a tourist do in Chattahooche Nature Center?A．Interact with rare animals.B．Have a bird view of the city.C．Take challenging hiking routes.D．Row a boat across the wetland.3．Which is the best place for people to have a family party?A．Centennial Olympic Park.B．Chattahooche Nature Center.C．Chastain Memorial Park and Amphitheatre.D．Cloudland Canyon State Park.Natural disasters take many different forms and can happen without warning.The surface of the Earth has not always looked as it does today; it is moving continuously and has done so for billions of years. This is one cause of earthquakes, when one section of the Earth (tectonic plate) crashes with another. Scientists can predict where (but not when) this might happen and the area between p lates is called a fault line. However, earthquakes do not always happen on fault lines, which is why they are so dangerous and unpredictable.V olcanoes happen where the earth’s crust (地壳) is thin — lava (熔岩), dust and gases burst out from beneath the earth. They can rise into a massive cone (锥体) shape — like a mountain — and erupt, or they can be so violent that they just explode directly from the earth with no warning. However, scientists are becoming more skilled at predicting volcanic eruptions.Hurricanes are extremely strong storms and often happen in the Caribbean. They cause high winds, huge waves and heavy flooding and can be hundreds of miles across.Floods happen in many countries after very heavy rainfall. When rain pours for weeks at a time, rivers overflow and people and belongings can be trapped or simply washed away.Another kind of natural disaster is a drought. This happens when there is no water — when it doesn’t rain for a long time and rivers dry up. Plants, animals and even humans die as a result of drought, for we all need water to live.All the disasters mentioned above are very dangerous and continue to kill thousands of people each year, but they are nowhere near the most dangerous disaster to ever happen on earth: asteroid (小行星) impacts. About once every million years the Earth is hit by a piece of rock and ice from space large enough to cause massive destruction and sometimes to kill entire species. 4．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A．Why an earthquake happens.B．How scientists describe an earthquake.C．When sections of the Earth crash.D．What the surface of the Earth looks like. 5．Which of the following is the most dangerous natural disaster?A．V olcanoes.B．Hurricanes.C．Droughts.D．Asteroid impacts. 6．How many natural disasters are mentioned in the text?A．4.B．5.C．6.D．7.7．How does the author develop the text?A．By expressing opinions.B．By listing examples.C．By telling some stories.D．By describing experiences.I presented a group project to my classmates. The first question asked was, “What words do you associate with rural education?” Some of the responses were positive.Others accurately portrayed a few of the negatives like “isolated” and “underfunded.” But I was surprised that some used words like “hillbillies” and “hicks” (乡巴佬).Previously, I felt proud of myself as a student from rural West Virginia. But at that moment, my pride sank. For a place that claims to welcome all, the Brown University has actually left its rural students feeling looked down upon.For a while, I never mentioned where I called home unless it was absolutely necessary. By the third month of my first year, I was prepared to transfer out of Brown and finish college at a school where I would be surrounded by people like me, people from rural communities. Then I realized that this response was just the one that my tormentors expected.Now I have decided to fight back. We need to change. But this deeply-rooted culture won’t change on its own. The University and its non-rural students can’t and won’t do it. So it is up to us, the rural students, to make a difference. So rural students, talk with your long, drawn-out accent, defend your hometown of hard-working people and condemn (谴责) the ignorance that attempts to deny your personhood. We must uplift other rural students in their academic and professional careers. We must be the ones to support each other.What we need is a club for that exact purpose. A rural students’ collective is the formal meeting place that we need and deserve. In an institution where rural students feel lost and deserted, we will soon find a common ground for each other.For the non-rural students and faculty wondering how to support us, don’t stick to yourstereotypes (刻板印象) that rural students are dumb, ignorant and unintelligent. On the contrary, we are valuable, deserving and hard-working individuals. Brown’s faculty and students should welcome and embrace our contributions.8．How did the writer feel after presenting the group project?A．Frustrated.B．Proud.C．Angry.D．Confused. 9．What group of students does the underlined word “tormentors” in Paragraph 2 probably refer to?A．Those who come from rural West Virginia.B．Those who are determined to make a change.C．Those who used words like “hillbillies” and “hicks” in their remarks.D．Those who associated rural education with “isolated” and “underfunded” .10．How does the writer think rural students should fight back?A．They should turn to the college authority for help.B．They should unite and reach out to assist each other.C．They need to setup a special club for all the students.D．They are supposed to avoid speaking with their local accent.11．What message does the writer want to convey?A．Positive attitudes contribute to a harmonious college.B．Discrimination is a common phenomenon in Virginia.C．Rural students in Brown are valuable and deserve respect.D．The Brown University badly needs to adjust its moral education.A new study has found that smiling at London bus drivers increases happiness. The finding feels obvious and unexpected at the same time. The authors of the research, which was conducted by the University of Sussex and others, hope it will lead to “more interaction and kindness on buses”. On the Number 24 bus to Hampstead Heath, Londoners are sceptical. “Bus drivers,” says Liz Hands, a passenger, “are generally annoying.”It might seem improbable that a report on London’s buses could change behaviour. But it has happened before. London’s buses have an underappreciated role in the history of medical science. In the 1940s, a single study of London’s transport workers transformed epidemiology (流行病学), medicine and the way we live now. Every time you go on a run, check your step-count, or take the stairs instead of the lift, you are following a path pioneered by the feet of the workers on London’s buses.In the late 1940s, doctors were worried. Britain, like many rich countries, was suffering from an “epidemic” of heart disease and no one knew why Various hypotheses (假设), such as stress, were suggested; but one thing that was not exercising researchers was exercise. The idea that health and exercise were linked “wasn’t the accepted fact that we know today”, says Nick Wareham, a professor of epidemiology at Cambridge University. Some even felt that “too much physical activity was a bad thing for your health”. Miners and farmers who did physical exercise also suffered from various diseases and died young.At this time a young doctor called Jerry Morris started to suspect that the increasing deaths from heart disease might be linked to occupation. He began studying the medical records of 31,000 London transport workers. His findings were breathtaking: conductors, who spent their time running up and down stairs, had an approximately 30% lower possibility of disease than drivers, who sat down all day. Exercise was keeping people alive.Morris’s research was eventually published in 1953, just three years after a study by Richard Doll proving the link between smoking and lung cancer. Morris’s work had consequences both big and small. Morris now also took up exercise, handing his jacket to his daughter and just running. “People thought I was bananas.” Slowly, the rest of the world took off its jacket and followed.12．What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A．The former study made much difference.B．Running was regarded as harmful behavior.C．Smiling at drivers can cure passengers’ diseases.D．London passengers can understand bus drivers well.13．What does the underlined part “exercising researchers” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Encouraging researchers to work out.B．Helping with researchers’ inquiry.C．Holding back researchers’ progress.D．Drawing researchers’ attention.14．How did Morris conduct his study on the transport employees?A．By carrying out survey.B．By observing their routines.C．By doing medical examinations.D．By analyzing the medical data.15．What is the best title for the text?A．Smiling and Its Effects on London Bus Drivers.B．The Evolution of London’s Transportation System.C．How London Bus Drivers Led the world to exercise.D．What Londoners Think about Studies on Bus Drivers.We all have times in our lives when we just have too many things to deal with. 16 Well, that’s crazy, because if you get ill then you’re going to be able to do nothing. Here are some ideas to take care of yourself.17 Living with clutter (杂乱) and never being able to find what you need when you need it causes stress. Take time to develop a system and then use it. Instead of keeping all the things you need to do in your head, write them down on a piece of paper.Spend 30 minutes per day on personal development. 18 And negative ones will disappear. If we want to be successful in work and life, we need to develop the habit of feeding our minds in a positive way. So take in good inspiring information.Say no to anything that is not important to you. Give yourself permission to focus on what’s important. Getting the unnecessary, tiresome responsibilities off your schedule will give you more time and space. 19 Take 5minute minibreaks every hour. 20 So no matter how efficiently you work, you should always have your mind relaxed or end up spending time doing other things when you try to keep going hour after hour. Instead, break up each hour by getting up from your chair and walking outside to take a 5minute break.A．Get organized.B．Write a journal entry every day.C．You can’t stay focused all the time.D．Fill your minds with positive thoughts.E．Besides, it will reduce the pressure that you feel.F．As a result, we often forget to look after ourselves.G．Eating healthily is one of the most sensible things you can do for yourself.二、完形填空When light snow began falling, the principal kept a careful eye on the approaching storm.

2019-2020学年湛江市廉江市第三中学高三英语月考试题及参考答案

2019-2020学年湛江市廉江市第三中学高三英语月考试题及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ATry one of these amazing destinations on your next vacation.MallorcaOn the popular Spanish island of Mallorca, farmhouse inns focus more on providing isolation and quietness than offering hands-on farming experiences. With millions of visitors staying on the beaches of Mallorca and the other Balearic Islands each summer, a little bit of isolation is a good thing for aloneness-seeking travelers. Mainly located in the hills of inland Mallorca, these inns range from rustic century-old farmhouses to luxury(奢侈的) villas with spas and swimming pools.HawaiiPeople who don't want to dig out their passport but still want their farm adventure can head to the island of Hawaii. The 50th state talks much about the well-developed farm tourism industry that can hold people with different interests. Agritourism choices range from visiting coffee plantations(种植园) in the Big Island's Kona region to exploring the plantations on Maui to staying on farms on the easily reachable island of Oahu. CaliforniaCalifornia is one ofthe best places in the U. S. to enjoy a farm-stay, thanks to the diversity of crops and farms. Small family farms and large farms offer a more hands-on approach to agritourism. Many of them teach small-scale farming techniques and even offer strategies for organic growing. The University of California system, one of the largest state-run higher education systems in the U.S., has a small-farm program that helps growers create agritourism businesses.Philippine IslandsWith diverse conditions on different islands, the Philippine Islands are ideal places for visiting multiple agritourism sites or focusing on one product. Tourists can visit a huge pineapple plantation for a taste of large-scale agriculture, or they could focus on smaller operations such as bee farms, and even small plantations that specialize in growing tropical produce such as dragon fruit.1. What kind of people will choose to go to Mallorca?A. Those who prefer peace of mind.B. Those who like lying on the beach.C. Those who enjoy the luxury of tourism.D. Those who want to experience farming.2. What can people do on the Philippine Islands?A. Live in farmhouses.B. Visit plantations.C. Learn farming techniques.D Take part in a farm program.3. What are the four places in the text famous for?A. Locations.B. Environments.C. Local products.D. Tourism features.BIn Australia, plenty of wild things can bite or sting(刺伤) you. Strangely enough, one of them is a tree. Now scientists have figured out what makes the tree’s sting so bad.The rainforests of eastern Australia are home to a stinging tree known as Dendrocnide. Many people callit the gympie-gympie tree—a name given to the tree by native Australians. It’s covered with sharp, needle-like hairs that carry poison. If you touch a gympie-gympie tree, you won’t forget it anytime soon. The pain can stay with you for hours, days or weeks. In some cases, it’s been reported to stay for months.Scientists have long looked for the source of this powerful sting. Now researchers at the University of Queensland have discovered what makes this stinging plant so painful. After carefully studying different kinds of gympie-gympie trees, the scientists were able to separate out different chemicals that the trees produce. This allowed them to identify a group of chemicals that they believed was responsible for the pain.The researchers created artificial versions of these chemicals, which they call “gympietides”. Sure enough, when the scientists injected mice with gympietides, the mice licked(舔) at the places where they’d been injected, indicating that they hurt in those places. When the scientists studied the way gympietides were built, they found that they formed a knot-like shape. The shape makes the chemicals very stable, which helps explain why the pain stays so long.The knot-like shape of the gympietides was similar to the shape of poisons produced by poisonous spidersand cone snails. The scientists were surprised to see three very different kinds of life all using similar poisons. Spiders and cone snails carry poisons because they catch food by stinging other creatures. It’s not clear how stinging helps the gympie-gympie tree.Though the tree’s sting may stop some animals from eating it, it doesn’t stop all animals. Beetles and pademelons (small s of the kangaroo) are able to eat the plant without trouble.4. Why is a touch on the stinging tree unforgettable?A. Because it has so unusual an appearance.B. Because it is extremely rare in existence.C. Because touching it creates a quite strange feeling.D. Because the pain caused by it doesn’t go away quickly.5. What do scientists fail to find out about the stinging tree?A. How it produces poisons.B. What poisons it produces.C. How it benefits from the sting.D. The consequences of its sting.6. What does the text imply about the stinging tree?A. It produces the same poisons as spiders.B. Poisonous as it is, it also has natural enemies.C. Animals are wise enough to stay away from it.D. Only one chemical in it causes pain to the toucher.7. What’s the best title for the text?A. Scientists Discover Stinging Tree's SecretB. Caution: Stinging Tree Can Bite and Poison YouC. Scientists Discover a Strange Species in AustraliaD. Effective Ways to Avoid Being Hurt by Stinging TreeCThe Rise of Voice TechnologyVoice technology has come a long way. Just a few years ago, it would have been unusable. But now, those who follow the technology know that it has got considerably better.Writing with your voice raises several interesting questions. How difficult is it actually? Human speech involves a lot more starting and stopping with errors and the need for repairing broken sentences than you may think. Even gifted speakers make mistakes. To turn the spoken word into reasonable writing requires lots of planning. You’ll need some kinds of notes or other organisers to make it work.Another question turning speech into writing raises is the style. How would writing make the change that people speak their writing rather than type? Chances are that it would come up with many more short sentencesand more concrete language, which is good. It would probably also rely on prepared phrases a lot more often, which is not available when you are speaking quickly.To confirm this, a column was not written, but dictated (听写). It was composed from brief notes written down for structure only, and it was edited for length, with all of the original errors kept in. Here were the results. The first was that the literal accuracy was extremely high. There weren’t many cases wherethe software had heard one word incorrectly and written down another. But the other result was that the readability of this column was rather bad. Obviously, the blame is not with the technology at all, which turns out to be rather good. Speaking into writing relies on a better human brain than the one we currently possess. Writing is hard. There’s a reason it can’t be done at the speed of speech, in real time.To clarify the matter, this time paragraph breaks were added after the whole writing. Punctuations (标点) had to be spoken aloud, and after a full stop, the first word in the new sentence was capitalized automatically. Some minor punctuation marks were added to make it clearer. To improve accuracy, people “trained” the software beforehand, reading a prewritten passage aloud. Actually it turns out to be more effective. All of these ensure the satisfactory completion of turning speech into writing.Language is the most important tool for human interaction, and voice is one beautiful part of language. With the maturity of modern technology, it has given birth to a great change in the human-computer voice interaction.8. According to the passage, which helps to turn speech into writing in terms of style?A. There is careful planning in advance.B. Errors and broken sentences are avoided.C. People type words as fast as they say them.D. The writing contains more prepared phrases.9. To achieve better results, the author mentions some changes for ______.A. processing errors in a column.B. adding minor punctuation marks.C. increasing the number of brief notes.D. integrating short paragraphs in writing.10. The author suggests that ______.A. human brains are responsible for poor dictated writing.B. writing with voice promises to improve the quality of writing.C. writing is an unnatural act that can hardly be learned and improved.D. technology has a long way to go in the human-computer voice interaction.11. What is the passage mainly about?A. Why people fully intend to turn speech into writing.B. What role voice technology plays in improving readability.C. Where the human-computer voice interaction is at an advantage.D. How voice technology enables the change from speech into writing.DThefirst thing we notice about new people are their faces. The next time we see these people, we remember them because we remember their faces. This seems like a simple process. However, scientists found that it is not such a simple process. The section of the brain that is responsible for face recognition seems to work differently for different people. Some people have great difficulty remembering and recognizing faces, while others almost never forget a face.Normal babies are born with a natural ability to recognize faces. In fact, their face recognition abilities are much better than their parents. Babies are most highly skilled at face recognition at six months. But by nine months, they lose this skill. By nine months, a baby’s face-recognition skills are about the same as an adult’s.Unfortunately, some people are not born with this ability to recognize faces. The part of the brain that is responsible for face recognition doesn’t work for them. This condition is called face blindness. People with very severe face blindness cannot even recognize their own faces. In fact, people with this condition can sometimes be frightened when they look in the mirror. They don’t recognize their own face, so for a second they are startled when they see this unfamiliar face.Face blindness is not always severe. Scientists believe up to 10 percent of the population may be affected by face blindness to some degree, yet many people with mild face blindness might not even know they have it. They have no reason to know they are different from anyone else until someone points it out. This is similar to people with color1 blindness. Colorblind people can’t see the difference between certain color1 s such as red and green, until someone tells them that green and red are two different color1 s.There is no cure for face blindness. So for the time being, people with face blindness need to find simple techniques to compensate for their problem. They can try to recognize people by their hairstyle, their voice, or their glasses. Hopefully, in the future as scientists learn more about this condition, they may find a cure.12. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The way to improve one’s face-recognition skills.B. The simple process of the brain to recognize others’ faces.C. The fact that some people have face-recognition problems.D. The importance of face recognition in human communication.13. When do children have the best face-recognition skills?A. At birth.B. Half a year old.C. Nine months old.D. In adolescence.14. What does the underlined word “startled” in the 3rd paragraph probably mean?A. Depressed.B. Confused.C. Embarrassed.D. Surprised.15. What does the author think of the problem of face blindness?A. People need to take it seriously.B. Certain techniques can make up for it.C. It will be cured in the near future.D. It has the same effect with color1 blindness.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
