BJeremiah Thoronka was born in the fighting of the Sierra Leone civil war and grew up in the gutter(贫民窟)on the suburbs of the capital Freetown,having to burn wood for lighting heating.Jeremiahheating.Jeremiah saw with his own eyes how,in addition to the smog making breathing problems common,his young contemporaries fell behind in their schoolwork because of a lack of decent lighting.Energy poverty is a major issue in Sierra Leone—with just 26%of the population having electricity.Inelectricity.In rural parts of the country,only 6%of people have electricity access,most of whom turn to solar lanterns and dry-cell batteries.As a result,it's led to the destruction of forests as people cut down trees for firewood,which leaves Sierra Le one highly sensitive to extreme events like flooding and landslides.Families reliance on firewood also leads to frequent house fires.These life-threatening disadvantages and hardships fuelled Jeremiah's passion for renew able energy and climate change advocacy.At 17 when studying at the African Leadership University in Rwanda,he launched a start-up called Optim Energy that transforms vibrations(震动)from vehicles and footfall on roads into an electric current.It is different from established renewable energy sources including wind or solar because it generates power without relying on changeable weather.Optim Energy ran a successful pilot program in Jeremiah's neighbourhoods,Makawo in the northern part of Sierra Leone and Kuntoluh east of Freetown.With just two devices,the startup provided free electricity to 150 households comprising around 500 citizens as well as15 schools where more than 9,000 students attend.Jeremiah is currently developing plans to expand into the healthcare field which needs power to cool medicines and create enough light for treating patients after dark.24.What affected the young fellows academic performance?A.The war.C.The poor lighting.B.The smog.D.The breathing problem.25.What can we learn about"energy poverty"from paragraph 2?A.It is caused by solar lanterns and dry-cell batteries.B.It has a worse impact on the city area.C.It brings about the destruction of forests.D.It increases the risk of forest fires.26.What is special about Optim Energy?A.It draws on vibrations to make electricityB.It upgrades the use of solar energy.C.It runs a pilot program throughout the city.D.It helps 9,000 students return to school.27.What message does the text want to convey?A.Electricity is the lifeblood of the city.B.Whoever is happy will make others happy too.C.Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.D.We are all in the gutter,but some are making it better.CFor a century,Jordan Creek cut across downtown Springfield.Over the decades the stream regularly flooded into the city's commercial heart.Residents had been tired of the floods so they created concrete banks to cage the stream and in 1932 buried the waterway,hiding it in culverts(排水管)under city streets.It was man's attempt to control floodwater.That was the old way of thinking.For a while,that controlled the floods.But the roads and other hard surfaces prevented water from going into the ground and allowing more rainwater into the enclosed streams than they could handle.Eventually,the water won.The neighborhood flooded in 2000,2008 and2016.For two decades,the city discussed freeing the stream and allowing water to run over the floodplain.Finally,a project to uncover 1,100 feet of Jordan Creek and build three bridges is moving forward.The new way of thinking is to give the water some room,leave some areas for floods and just let nature be nature.Uncovering buried waterways to bring them back to life is a process known as“day lighting”.Coverings are removed and an attempt is made to restore the natural flow and the surrounding ecosystem.The primary goal of the project is flood control.But the work has a variety of benefits.Native plantings will help improve the water quality by filtering(过滤)rainwater.The stream will replace an unsightly landscape and become a“string of pearls(珍珠)”connecting parks and green areas in the city's "Quality of Place"initiative.The benefits go beyond that.Stream restoration is neighborhood restoration.The project may promote economic development and increase property values and tax revenue.While the projects can be expensive,they end costly maintenance.Returning to nature is cheaper than maintaining concrete culverts.28.What did Springfield citizens in the 1930s probably believe?A.Man can control nature.C.Business is the heart of a city.B.Life is prior to development.D.Residents should not live by a river29.What was one result of covering Jordan Creek?A.Three bridges were removed.B.Water went into the ground.C.Floods hit the neighborhood.D.Rainwater was well handled30.Which aspect of the project does paragraph 4 mainly discuss?A.Economic value. C.Flood management.B.Construction planning D.Environmental impact.31.Which can be a suitable title for the text?A.A Solution That Proves a ProblemB.Old Thinking Inspires New ChangesC.“Buried”Streams Turn into Urban CentersD.“Daylighting”Buried Waterways to Refresh CitiesDPhilosophers have a bad reputation for expressing themselves in a dry and boring way.The ideals for most philosophical writing are precision.clarity,and the sort of conceptual analysis that leaves no hair un-split.There is nothing wrong with clarity,precision,and the like —but this isn't the only way to dophilosophy.Outside academic ,abstract philosophical ideas are often expressed through literature,cinema,and song.There's nothing that grabs attention like a good story,and there are some great philosophical stories that delight and engage,rather than putting the reader to sleep.One of the great things about this is that,unlike formal philosophy,which tries to be very clear,stories don't wear their meanings on their sleeve —they require interpretation,and often express conflicting ideas for the reader to wrestle with.Consider what philosophers call the metaphysics(形而上学)of race —an area of philosophy that explorers the question of whether or not race is real.There are three main positions that you can take on these questions.You might think that a person's race is written in their genes(a position known as“biological realism”).Or you might think of race as socially real,like days of the week or currencies ("social constructionism").Finally,you might think that races are unreal —that they're more like leprechauns(一种魔法精灵)than they are like Thursdays or dollars(“anti-realism”).A great example of a story with social constructionist taking on race is George Schuyler's novel Black No More.In the book,a Black scientist named Crookman invents a procedure that makes Black people visually indistinguishable from Whites.Thousands of African Americans flock to Crookman's Black No More clinics and pay him their hard-earned cash to undergo the procedure.White racists can no longer distinguish those people who are "really"White from those who merely appear to be White.In a final episode,Crookman discovers that new Whites are actually a whiter shade of pale than those who were born that way,which kicks off a trend of sunbathing to darken one's skin-darkening it so as to look more White.Philosophically rich stories like this bring more technical works to life.They are stories to think with.32.What does the author think of philosophical stories?A.The meaning behind is very obvious.B.They am extremely precise and formal.C.They often cause conflicts among readers.D.They are engaging and inspire critical thinking.33.Which category might "Christmas"fall into according to paragraph 4?A.Social constructionism.C.Biological realism.B.Anti-realism.D.Literary realism.34.What is Black No More in paragraph 5 mainly about?A.Racial issues caused by skin colors.B.A society view on race and self-image:C.Black people accepted by the white society.D.The origin of sun bathing among white people.35.What is the best title of the text?A.Stories Made Easy C.Positions in PhilosophyB.Stories to Think withD.Nature of Philosophical Writing第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)Do Lobsters Feel Pain?The traditional method for cooking a lobster(龙虾)—boiling it alive —raises the question of whether or not lobsters feel pain. 36 .Lobsters go bad very quickly after they die,and eating a dead lobster,increases the risk of illness and reduces the quality of its flavor.However,if lobsters are capable of feeling pain,the method and others,such as storing the live lobster on ice,raise moral questions for chefs and lobster eaters alike.37 Lobsters have a peripheral system like humans,but instead of a single brain,they possess nerve cluster(神经簇).Because of this difference,some researchers argue lobsters are too dissimilar to vertebrates(脊椎动物)to feel pain.Nonetheless,lobsters do satisfy all of the standard for a pain response.Lobsters guard their injuries,learn to avoid dangerous situations,respond to anesthetics,and are believed to possess some level of consciousness.So most scientists believe that injuring a lobster causes physical pain.38 ,so it is now becoming illegal to boil lobsters alive or keep them on ice.Currently,boiling lobsters alive is illegal in Switzerland,New Zealand,and the Italian city Reggio Emilia.The most humane tool for cooking a lobster is the CrustaStun.This device electrocutes a lobster,making it unconscious in less than half a second or killing it in 5 to 10 seconds. 39 .Unfortunately,the CrustaStun is too expensive for most restaurants and people to afford.Some restaurants place a lobster in a plastic bag and place it in the freezer for a couple of hours,during which time it loses consciousness and dies. 40 ,but it is probably the most humane option for killing a lobster before cooking and eating it.A.This solution is not idealB.And then,it can be cut apart or boiledC.Lobsters are popular food in many countriesD.There is growing evidence that lobsters may feel painE.Scientists disagree over whether or not lobsters feel painF.Many restaurants choose more humane methods to cook itG.This cooking way is used to improve humans' dining

高二上学期第一次月考英语试题 含答案

高二英语月考试题2018.9考试范围:Units1---3 考试时间:120分钟满分:150分一、听力部分(共30分)二、阅读理解(共30分)1.(8分)AFrancis Bacon,one of the most important philosophers(哲人)of England,was born in London and educated at Cambridge University.When he was only 15,he went to France to work for the English ambassador(大使).Two years later he went to England to study law.At the age of twenty three he was chosen to parliament(议会).His ideas about how scientists should study things in nature help to bring the modern way of thinking,called the scientific method.One of the Bacon best known books was his Essays.Each essay was a short piece of writing in which he tried to give a lesson by discussing sides of a subject such as studying,conversation,friends and healthful living.In many of his books,Bacon explained how scientists should study things as they really exist in nature and then try to figure out what caused a particular thing to be as it ter,by doing experiments,the scientists could see that any one cause would always have the same result.This method,which is called inductive reasoning,is used by all the scientists today,but it was new in Bacon’s time.(21)According to the passage we know that ________.A.Francis Bacon was the most important philosopher of EnglandB.Francis Bacon had good educationC.Francis Bacon worked for a French ambassador at the age of 15D.Francis Bacon stayed in France until he was 23(22)It can be known that Francis Bacon was famous for________.A.inventing the scientific method of studying things in natureB.his booksC.his method,inductive reasoningD.being a member of parliament(23)His essays gave many useful lessons on ________.A.studyingB.conversationC.friends and healthful livingD.All of the above.(24)The underlined phrase “inductive reasoning” in the last paragraph means________.A.discovering general laws from particular facts or examplesB.reaching a conclusion by reasoning from general laws to a particular caseC.studying things as they used to beD.studying things in a particular way2.(8分)BDogs are man's best friends.This everyday saying may contain some truth,but dogs are not the only animal friends that people like.For example,cats can be excellent house pets,too.People enjoy the friendship of cats.Cats love to keep close to their owners.Cats are quite playful.They love to run after balls,or play with anything hanging from a string. They especially enjoy playing when their owners play the game with them.Just like a dog,a cat can be trained to perform tricks(诡计)or avoid unwanted behaviour.Cats do not have to be walked.They get plenty of exercise in the house as they play,and they do their business in their litter boxes.So their owners only need to spend time cleaning their litter boxes.Washing a cat is almost never necessary because cats usually clean themselves.In addition,cats can be left alone at home for a few hours without any worry.Unlike some pets,most cats willnot destroy the furniture when left alone.They just go about their usual activities until their owners return.Cats are polite members of a family.Unlike dogs,cats do not make lots of loud noise. They walk very quietly.Also,cats don't often have “accidents”.Mother cats train their babies to use the litter box,and most cats will use it from that time on.Cats keep their energy by sleeping more than most animals,especially as they grow older.(25)From the passage,we can learn that ______.A.cats would rather play with themselvesB.cats often play tricks on their ownersC.many people think dogs are man's best friendsD.cats sleep less than any other animal does(26)What can be concluded(推断) from the passage?A.Cats are very easy to be kept as house pets.B.Cats need more time to do exercise than dogs.C.Cats are afraid of being left alone at home.D.Cats don't like to clean themselves.(27)In the fourth paragraph,we can learn that cats are ______.A.playfulB.cuteC.politeD.noisy(28)Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage?A. B. C. D.3.(6分)Dolphins are not fish,but warmblooded animals.They live in groups,and speak to each other in their own language.In this way they are like other animals,such as bees and birds.But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals.Their brain is nearly the same size as our own,and they live a long time—at least twenty or thirty years.Like some other animals,dolphins use sound to help them find their way around.They also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food.We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds,but the lower part of the mouth,called the jaw.Strangely,dolphins seem to like man,and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century.In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand,they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack.From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way.Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called the Penguin shot and wounded(伤害)Jack.He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area—except for the Penguin. Today,some people continue to kill dolphins,but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.(29)Dolphins are different from many other animals in that they ______.A.live in groupsB.have large brainsC.are warmbloodedD.have their own language(30)Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look for Jack?A.He was lonely and liked to be with people.B.They enjoyed playing with him.C.He was seriously wounded.D.They wanted his help.(31)By telling the story of Jack the writer wanted to show that ______.A.dolphins are friendly and cleverB.people are cruel to animalsC.Jack is different from other dolphinsD.dolphins should be protected by law4.(8分)Without proper planning,tourism can cause problems.For example,too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of the country.If tourists create too much traffic,the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy.They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely.They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy.It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them.Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists.Tourism should also advance the wealth and happiness of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem.If tourism grows too quickly,people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry.This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.On the other hand,if there is not enough tourism,people can losejobs.Businesses can also lose money.It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels,airports,firstclass roads,and other support facilities(配套设施)needed by tourist attractions.For example,a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build.If this room is not used most of the time,the owners of the hotel will lose money. Building a hotel is just a beginning.There must be many other support facilities as well,including roads to get to the hotel,electricity,sewers(下水道)to handle waste,and water.All of these support facilities cost money.If they are not used because there are not enough tourists,jobs and money are lost.(32)Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this selection?A.It is extremely important to develop tourism.B.Building roads and hotels is important.C.Support facilities are highly necessary.D.Planning is of great importance to tourism.(33)The underlined word “inhabitants”(in Paragraph 1)probably means ______.A.citizensB.passengersC. populationD.tourists(34)Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ______.A.a bad effect on other industriesB.a change of tourists' customsC.overcrowdedness of places of interestD.pressure on traffic(35)It can be inferred from the text that ______.A.the author doesn't like tourism developing so fastB.local people will benefit from tourist attractionC.other parts of a country's economy won't benefit from tourism muchD.we can't build too many support facilities三、阅读填空(共10分)5.(10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Claus did not exist has been fired.When excited youngsters became rowdy as they talked about Santa,the supply teacher said out suddenly,“It's your parents who leave out presen ts on Christmas Day.”The class of seven-year-olds at Blackshaw Lane Primary School,Royton,Greater Manchester burst into tears and told their parents when they arrived home.Mothers and fathers then plained about the incident and were sent a letter by the school saying the teacher,who only worked at the school for one day last week,has been disciplined.The school has now said it will not hire her again.One father said,“My son came home and said that his teacher had told the class that Santa doesn't exist and it's their mum and dad that put out presents for them.Obviously,they were all talking about Christmas and being a bit rowdy.She just came straight out with it.”“My son was in tears and so was everyone else in the class—especially as it was so close to Christmas.I thought it was wrong.He was crazy about it.He's only seven years old and it's part of the magic of Christmas to him.”“We told him that she did not believe in Father Christmas because of her religion and he's fine now.”“The father described the incident as ‘shocking’ and believed it wasdone with malicious intent(恶意地).A lot of parents were angry and plained to the school.The teacher,who was supplied by Rochdale and Oldham Supply Agency,is still listed and will work with other schools,”the agency said.However,the head teacher in Angela McCormick refused to ment on the incident.41.Who felt the angriest about the incident?A.The teacher who was fired.B.The pupils who were in tears.C.The parents whose children cried.D.Santa Claus the teacher talked about.42.The seven-year-old children cried because of ________.A.their teacher's leavingB.the letters by the schoolC.something about Santa ClausD.the presents left out by the parents43.We can infer from the passage that ________.A.the teacher was fired and couldn't continue her career in teaching标签:B.the parents plained about the discipline of the schoolC.the little pupils felt disappointed after hearing the news told by the teacherD.in reality,Santa Claus exists and gives out presents once a year.44.What's the meaning of the underlined word“rowdy”?A.Surprised.B.Noisy.C.Discouraged.D.Annoyed.BPicking tomatoesFor as long as I can remember,Grandma's plentiful tomato garden has been a sign of summer's end.Each September,just as the decreased heat of the sun suggests cooler days,Grandma requests my help in her tomato garden.She convinces me she cannot pick tomatoes without my youthful eyes and quick mind.She says we need to examine each tomato and agree on its readiness for picking.While Grandma's request for my help in the tomato garden is always the same,her desire for my help seems to increase each year.Grandma has eyes for finding even the tomatoes hidden by undergrowth and other tomatoes.I,however,just turn circles looking for the ones I think Grandma will like.I spot what looks like a ripe tomato,head in its direction,and then get sidetracked by another that appears to be equally ripe.I usually end up watching Grandma and trying to stay out of her way,which seems the only way my eyes and mind are useful.There we are,lost in the tomato vines(藤).Grandma's eyes are always knowing,and they are no different in the vegetable garden.From afar shespots what looks like a ripe tomato.As she walks toward the garden,she evaluates the tomato for a second time,but from a different angle.I already know it will end up in the basket with the pile of others Grandma has carefully chosen.However,Grandma acts as if she needs final look to be sure.She calls me to her side,kneels beside the vine while enjoying the warmth of the fading sunlight on her face,and grasps the tomato in her hand.She turns each round,red ball toward the sunlight before disconnecting it from the vine with a half-hearted smile.She then looks at me.I nod my head and smile.Grandma assumes I smile in agreement with her tomato selection.I know I smile,instead,at her.45.Why does Grandma ask the author to go to the tomato garden with her?A.He can help pick more tomatoes.B.He can learn the hardship of labor.C.She enjoys staying with him while working.D.She tries to share the happiness of harvest with him.46.The second paragraph shows that the author ________.A.is an inefficient tomato pickerB.really has youthful eyes and quick mindC.has spent a lot of time gardening with GrandmaD.is a naughty child trying to be out of Grandma's sight47.In the last paragraph,the author smiles to Grandma because he ________.A.realized her true intentionsB.felt very happy to pick potatoes for herC.confirmed that her choice of tomato is greatD.appreciated her skill in finding ripe tomatoes48.What can we infer from the story?A. The grandchild will e more skillful at gardening than Grandma.标签:B.Grandma will develop more patience in working with the grandchild.C.The grandchild will gradually e more independent of Grandma.D.Grandma's need for the grandchild's pany will grow over time.CI was hurrying to our basketball game one morning when Hillary Barnes,the most popular girl,in school,stopped me.“Are you the twin who won the art petition?”she asked.“No,that's Christine.I'm Kati e.”I said.We were not identical twins;we looked quite different.She could defeat Snow White in a beauty contest!Compared to Christine,I felt like one of Cinderella's stepsisters.One Saturday Christine gave me a painting lesson because I was always attempting to be artistic too.But I knocked over the vase offlowers,spilling water onto Christine's painting.Instead of ing angry,though,she turned the whole mess into a dreamy masterpiece(杰作).You could look at it five different ways and see five different things.With this brilliant creation,she won First Prize in the art petition.I really envied her,but I knew it wasn't her fault and I was the one with wild,unmanageable hair and no talent.Joining Christine's basketball team was my latest effort to be like her.On the way to the gym,I'd made up my mind to give my best performance in that day's game.I made preparations with great enthusiasm.“Christine,here!”I tossed her a ball.But it was too high,she leapt for it,it slipped through her fingers and crashed into the tape recorder that was used to play the national anthem before each game.I muttered apologies as I picked up the broken pieces of the recorder.Coach looked at the mess and asked,“How are we going to play the song now?”Christine suggested,“Let Katie sing it!She's always singing at home.”Coach asked.“Would you?”I found myself nodding.Coach announced the national anthem and everyone stood.Standing before a microphone,I looked up to the flag.The notes seemed to flow from deep inside me,and my voice was steady and clear.When I finished,the gym was silent Then it was filled with applause.As the game started.teammates patted my back and gave me the“thumbs up”uraJamison said.“You should try out for the school musical!”I Nodded and said that I might.The next morning Hillary Barnes stopped me in the hallway and asked,“Are you the twin who sings?”“Yes,that's me,”I answered,grining(露齿笑)as I walked to class.49.The authur uses“Snow White”and“Cinderella's stepsisters”to showA.how dissimilar the twins were in appearaneeB.why Christine could win the art petitionC.who was the most popular girl at schoolD.what the twins characters were like50.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A.Christine was unpleasant to her sister.B.Katie showed a lot of ability in painting too.C.The masterpiece was painted by the two sisters.D.Katie took a reasonably balanced view of her sister.51.Christine mended Katie for the national anthem because ________.标签:A.she knew perfectly well what Katie had a gift

popular.B.People are talented in different ways.C.People should always be nice to others.D.Unsuccessful attempts are well worth the effort.DWhat makes a house a home?Not size,of course.I've been in some of the grandest houses in America,and it's clear that no one lives there.Earlier this year,I had dinner in a mud hut in Ethiopia,where we sat on chairs next to the hostess' bed—a home that had more warmth than any house I've been in since.Now John Edwards is exploring what makes a house a home in his just-released(发行)Home.The Blueprints of Our Lives.There Edwards writes,“This isn't a book about houses;it's a book about homes.About the values they rest on,the dreams they are filled with,and the people they have shaped.”Edwards writes,“The houses and circumstances are different,but much of what you find inside will be familiar.”Whether you're sitting in an airport right now,waiting to fly to your childhood home for Thanksgiving,or in your own home waiting for the relatives to arrive,you know what he's talking about.We've lived in our townhouse for 21 years.It's home now.The loose windows that shake in the wind.The fireplace so shallow it holds only onelog.The kitchen window that offers a view of the world passing by.It's where friends sit on the kitchen counter drinking wine while dinner is being fixed.I lived there for only 18 years,but it will always be my true home.Even the lamp in the west living room window,which I could see far down the road when driving home late at night,still shines.While all this talk about childhood memories can be warm and forting,home is whom you're with,not where you are.As Edwards writes,“Home is family.Home is safety.Home is faith.”Happy ing.53.According to the author,what makes a house a home?A.All the belongings in the house.B.Feelings of warmth and fort.C.The houses and circumstances.D.Drinking with friends on the kitchen counter.54.About the book Home: The Blueprints of Our Lives,we know that ________.A.it was the description of Edwards' housesB.it is mainly about housesC.it helps us understand the concept(概念)of homeD.it was written by the author of the text55.What did the author mean when he mentioned the loose windows and the shallow fireplace?A.His house was too old to live in.B.He missed the feeling of home.C.He hated living there.D.He missed his old friends too much.E篇章结构Ancient Rome was one of

Educators arrange them in the belief that schools exist not only to teach economically useful skills, but also to produce civilized young people who appreciate the art and culture. While there are parents who will take their children to cultural places in their free time, there are plenty of other children who will never have this kind of opportunity unless schools offer it. So you could say that taking school students on field trips is a means of giving everyone equal access to their cultural heritage.However, the attitude towards field trips in recent years is changing, with the number of tours organized for school groups falling significantly in museums all around the country. The most obvious reason is the issue of finance. Because there are increasing demands on their funds, after all, computers and sports facilities aren’t cheap, schools are forced to make a difficult choice about how to spend the limited money they have. Faced with this dilemma, field trips are an obvious thing to cut since they are seen by many as too expensive.Additionally, the nature of these field days is also changing. Schools increasingly use trips to amusement parks or sporting events as a treat for students rather than an opportunity for cultural learning. This shift could have a basis in generational differences between teachers’ reasons for organizing days out of school. A recent survey conducted among 500 Arkansas teachers showed that older teachers were significantly more likely to take the primary purpose of a field trip as a learning experience than younger teachers, who view it as fun.Some evidence shows the trend of fewer trips may have a negative effect on children’s development. A research led by Jay Greene at Arkansas University found that students who received a tour of an art museum greatly improved their knowledge of and the ability to think critically about art. They also display stronger historical interest and were more likely to visit cultural places in the future. The researchers warm that if schools cut field trips or switch to lesseducational destinations, valuable opportunities to broaden and enrich children’s learning experiences are lost.4. What is the original purpose of field trips to cultural institutions?A. To teach students useful skills in economics.B. To encourage parents to take their children there.C To educate students to preserve cultural heritage.D. To make art culture accessible to every student.5. Which factor most probably leads to the trend of fewer field trips?A The decrease in school funds.B. The lack of school funds.C Students’ demand for fun.D. Teachers’ generational differences.6. What does the underlined phrase “This shift” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The switch from old generations to young generations.B. The switch from sporting events to cultural experiences.C. The change from an opportunity for learning to a treat for entertainment.D. The change from educational destinations to unique attractions.7. What can be inferred about field rips from the research by Jay Greene?A. Students are rewarded with more cultural awareness.B. Amusement parks enrich children’s learning experiences.C. Cutting field trips is critical to the future of the museum.D. Field trips ensure better future academic performance.CIf a job is worth doing, it’s worth doing poorly first. These are the words of Joel Salatin of Polyface Farm. Joel’s opinion is that we’ve all grown up with the expression “if it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right.” Personally, I grew up hearing it as “if it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing well.” Yet, as Joel says, nobody does it right the first time. Joel explained that it’s this kind of thinking that prevents us from innovating(创新) in our own lives. We’re frightened to death to try new things, because we think we have to get it right the first time.This is an innovative farmer’s wisdom. It resonates(和……类似) well with what I’ve learned from master teachers as well as with research on perfectionism. Let me speak briefly of both of these.I have been fortunate to have a number of mentors(导师) in my development as a teacher. One of my favorites is a retired biology teacher from the University of British Columbia, Lee Gass. Lee explained to me that it’s not until we know that we don’t know, it’s not until we admit our ignorance, even celebrate our ignorance, that we can learn anything at all!When we learn to see that it is through admitting our ignorance and trying even though it won’t be perfect or even “right” the first time that we can learn anything, we really start living.Some of the research stresses the harm of not taking this attitude in our pursuit(追求). Perfectionism is often said to be the enemy of the good. It’s also the enemy of even trying.I for one take this farmer’s advice to heart. I do try my best to do things as well as I possibly can but I recognize that it’s the creative process where we learn, if we stay at it long enough. If a job is worth doing, it’ s worth doing poorly first.8. What is Joel’s opinion about a job that is worth doing?A. It is worth trying.B. It is worth doing well.C. It is worth doing right.D. It is worth completing.9. What do Joel and Lee have in common?A. Both of them are ignorant.B. Both of them do a poor job.C. Both of them love their jobs.D. Both of them value ignorance.10. What is the finding of some of the research according to the text?A. It’s impossible to be perfect.B. It’s harmful to change your goal.C. It’s dangerous to seek perfection.D. It’s easy to become the enemy of the good.11. What does the author stress in the last paragraph?A. The value of creation.B. The benefit of learning.C. The meaning of freedom.D. The importance of a process.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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

She then met her husband and got married. Merrill first thought about going to school part-time to get a degree, but later she decided to follow her dream of attending medical school. Certainly, it was a challenge. Speaking of her successfully returning to university, Merrill thought it was credited to her family largely. “When I was accepted at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine, we moved from Pennsylvania to Arizona,” said Merrill, who is moving to Indiana with her family to begin her residency (实习期) in neurosurgery. “In fact, they volunteered these movements. I know it was tough for all of us.”Merrill and her children often have “homework parties” where they study for their own courses. Merrill’s choice has given a stimulus to her children. Merrill felt touched knowing her 11-year-old daughter wants to become a surgeon and overhearing her son tell his friends his mom’s going to be a cool brain surgeon, though he doesn’t understand that really.Merrill’s next step into a neurosurgery residency will take her into a male-dominated field where only 5% of board certified neurosurgeons are women. Dr. Michele Halyard at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine said Merrill was known as a focused student. Halyard said, “If you can deal with nine children and keep your reason, the residency should be a piece of cake because no amount of stress will make you fail.”Merrill had considered choosing a more family-friendly specialty, but, again, chose to dream big and follow her original pursuit. It’s the same advice she would give to all. “Set the goal that is what you’re really enthusiastic about, and it helps to think small. If you know what your priorities are, focus on the next step. Then you’ll get where you want to go.”4.Why does Merrill speak of their movements?A.To show the support of her family.B.To stress her determination to be a doctor.C.To reflect difficulties in attending college.D.To describe the process of pursuing her dream.5.What does the underlined word “stimulus” mean in paragraph 3?A.Entertainment.B.Inspiration.C.Commitment.D.Confusion.6.What does Halyard mean in paragraph 4?A.Merrill will have more stress to handle.B.Staying focused and sensible is key to success.C.Being Mom makes Merrill a better doctor.D.She is confident of Merrill’s being a neurosurgeon.7.What does Merrill suggest at last?A.Starting with small things.B.Getting your priorities right.C.Being true to your passion.D.Having the courage to dream big.Imagine being able to go to your local park and pick some tomatoes, potatoes or even bananas to take home for dinner. Sounds too good to be true, right? For residents of Andernach, a German city, it’s not just a Utopian dream — it’s their reality. In 2010, Andernach began its “edible city” project, planting 101 varieties of tomatoes in public green spaces around the city centre. Its 30,000 residents are free to help themselves to whatever grows, as are any other visitors. Every year a new type of plant is introduced. In 2011, 100 types of beans were planted, while 2012 saw the introduction of 20 onion varieties. The town’s motto (座右铭) is, “Picking is encouraged — help yourself!”It’s a community effort, as local citizens are encouraged to help plant and maintain thegardens. This offers an opportunity to socialize as well as to learn about planting, cultivating and harvesting food. “I often drop by to pick some herbs that I’m missing at home. Everything is easily accessible. There aren’t any fences. You just take what you need. The only thing is you have to be quick once the fruits are ripe or they’ll all be gone!” said a local historian.Andernach may be the first, but it isn’t the only edible city. It’s part of the Edible Cities Network, an EU-funded project connecting green urban food initiatives (倡议) around the world. Other edible cities include Carthage in Tunisia, Havana in Cuba and Šempeter-Vrtojba in Slovenia. In February 2022, the first Edible Cities Network Conference took place. Dr. Ina Säumel, Principal Investigator of the Edible Cities Network, called it, “a unique opportunity to invite researchers and practitioners (从业人员) of Edible City Solutions to the same table and unite theory with practice”.Ultimately, the Edible Cities Network aims to create “greener, more edible and, above all, more livable cities”. It is a response to the pressures of climate change, and a cause for hope. 8.What is paragraph 1 mainly about?A.The process of Andernach’s growth.B.The green food project in Andernach.C.Methods of planting vegetables in Europe.D.The popularity of Andernach’s city design.9.What is the attitude of the local historian mentioned in paragraph 2 towards the project?A.Doubtful.B.Indifferent.C.Positive.D.Negative.10.What can be inferred from paragraph 3?A.Green urban food has drawn more attention.B.German rural areas will follow the trend too.C.Asia will join the Edible Cities Network soon.D.Edible cities hold meetings on a regular base.11.Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A.Start a Green Food Campaign NowB.Gain Easy Access to German FoodC.Quick Response to Climate ChangeD.An Incredible “Edible City” Initiative二、七选五How to Deal with a Roommate Who Is InconsiderateDoes your roommate borrow your stuff without asking, or leave dirty dishes in the sink for weeks? 12 , but don’t worry — by having an open, honest talk with him/her, you can find a solution and make your house a home again.Tackling the problem now will keep it from worsening in the background.It might seem easier to ignore your roommate’s problems for now. 13 . Ask your roommate to sit down and have a chat with you soon, or schedule a house meeting a few days in advance.Avoiding accusations (指责) will help you have a more productive conversation.14 . — you can be specific, but try not to attack or blame your roommate. That way, you two can have an open, honest discussion, rather than an argument.15 .Once you’ve said your piece about your living situation, take a step back and really listen to your roommate’s point of view. Try not to interrupt. If your roommate gets defensive or angry, try saying something like, “I understand you’re upset, but I’d really like us to make a change together.”If you both make the rules, your roommate is more likely to follow them.After you’ve both shared your issues, do some brainstorming together on what could be changed around your place. Keep an open mind and be willing to compromise (妥协,让步) so that everyone ends up happier. 16 .A.Spending time together is necessaryB.It’s bad manners to criticize your roommateC.Bring up whatever is bothering you carefullyD.However, it’s better to face these things head-onE.Give him/her time to talk so he/she doesn’t feel attackedF.The rules you make together are more persuasive for your roommateG.Living with an inconsiderate roommate might make you feel frustrated三、完形填空Stephanie distinctly remembered watching a basketball movie called “Like Mike” whendiscussing 18 and inclusion (包容).Over the course of a term, Stephanie did a weeks-long lesson about how our differences make us 19 , and how we shouldn’t judge people until we’ve “walked a mile in their shoes”. The movie helped 20 this message to her students’ real lives.Stephanie had her students measure their feet in class, design their own 21 on paper, and write journals about making 22 about others based on appearances.

得夺市安庆阳光实验学校高二上学期英语月考测试10月满分(150)第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AI was in a shopping mall recently, and I decided to go and get a cup of tea. As I was making my way to the coffee shop, I noticed an old gentleman rather poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from the first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it.There was a young man in front of me in the line also waiting to be served. The young man handed the servant a twenty-dollar bill and asked for an orange juice as well as a favor. The servant looked at the young man with a little surprise, not fully understanding him. The young man asked her to give the juice to the old gentleman eating his lunch outside on the bench. The young man also told her that he would be watching every second so that she would be completely safe at all times. Later, there was a wonderful exchange (交换) between the waitress and the old man.I only wished I had taken a photo of the smiles on both of their faces.As I was thinking about this event later on, I wondered why the young man didn’t just perform this act of kindness himself. I thought he was hoping that this act of kindness might inspire others to do something for the old man as well. Thinking of the happy smiles on the old man’s face, I felt how worthwhile it is to help others.21. The underlined word “favor” in Para. 2 refers to .A. passing the young man a cup of orange juiceB. buying lunch for the old manC. giving the juice to the old manD. exchanging meals with the old man22. Which of the following can be used to describe the young man?A. Humorous and helpful.B. Generous and proud.C. Rich and friendly.D. Kind and considerate.23. In the author’s opinion, the young man asked the serva nt to take the juice to the old man so that .A. more people would be inspired to do good deedsB. he would become famous for his good deedC. the old man could probably accept itD. he would become a friend of the servantBThe Horn of Plenty is one of the largest natural health food stores within the Greater Hamilton area. We are big supporters of buying locally and we are here to tell you why it is so important for your family, the community and the environment.The concept (概念) of buying locally is simple: buy food produced, grown, or raised as close to your home as possible. Not only will your food be fresher and tastier, but you are helping protect the environment and are supporting businesses within your community and reducing pollution.Better for the environmentSustainability (持续性) and global warming are such hot topics at the moment, and many people want to do their bit to help support a healthier environment. Small action carried out by many people can make a big difference. Most materials in an average North American meal have traveled about 1,500 miles to get from farm to plate. To cut out a big part of this travel would greatly reduce not only pollution from transportation and refrigeration but also customers’ expenses as well.Taste and nutritional contentLocally-grown fruits and vegetables are usually sold within 24 hours of being harvested. Because they are picked at the height of ripeness (成熟) and travel only a short distance to the market, their freshness, nutrition, and flavor are kept. Produce trucked in from far away may lose both taste and nutritional content.Community and home valuesWhen you buy direct from a farmer or buy locally-grown foods, you are engaging in a time-honored tradition between a grower and an eater. You also help keep dollars within your community.24. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that .A. global warming is the most serious problem nowB. the increased cost of transporting food is passed on to the customersC. North American food is rich in various kinds of materialsD. most people support buying locally25. Locally-grown fruits and vegetables taste good mostlybecause .A. they are sent to the market at a high speedB. they are not polluted by chemical fertilizerC. they can be harvested at any timeD. they are picked when they are fully grown26. According to the author, when you buy locally-grown foods .A. you can see how fruits and vegetables growB. you will become much healthier and prettierC. you will contribute to protecting the environmentD. you are making money from your community27. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The benefits of buying locally.B. The popularity of the Horn of Plenty.C. The importance of protecting the environment.D. The way to keep your food tasty and healthy.CPeople often say that money talks. They mean that a person with a lot of money can say how he or she wants things done. But it is not easy to earn enough money to gain this kind of power.Sometimes people in business feel businesses are as dangerous as wild animals in a jungle. They have to be careful if they are to survive the jungle out there. They must not be led into making bogus investments (). Bogus means something that is not real. It was said that the word came from a criminal (罪犯) whose name was Borghese. Borghese wrote checks to people although he didn’t have money. After he wrote the checks, he would disappear. So, people who were paid with his checks received nothing.People trying to earn money also must be aware of being ripped off.A person who is ripped off has had something stolen, or at least has been treated unfairly. To keep from getting ripped off in business, people had better try to earn money step by step instead of getting rich quickly.To be successful, a person in business works hard and tries to get down to brass tacks. For example, a salesman may talk about his product without saying the price. You get down to brass tacks when you say, “It sounds good, but how mu ch does it cost?” Word experts thought the expression came from sailors on ships. They cleaned the bottom of a boat. After they finished, they were down to the brass tacks, the copper pieces that held the boat together. So, if we get down to brass tacks, we can avoid rip-offs and bogus ways of earning money.28. What would happen to those people who make bogus investments?A. They would lose a lot of money.B. They would disappear after that.C. They would receive nothing but checks.D. They were more likely to be punished by law.29. The best way to avoid being ripped off in business is to .A. work as hard as possibleB. ask for checks in advanceC. avoid becoming wealthy eagerlyD. earn as more money as you can30. When doing business, people prefer to get down to brass tacksto .A. keep themselves from being fooledB. develop more ways of earning moneyC. reduce their production costsD. get in touch with more partners31. In which part of a newspaper can we find this passage?A. News and business.B. The history of language.C. Words and their stories.D. Funny new expressions. DMore often than not, people will look at the phone screen to check for new messages or have a quick look at Facebook. Researchers have now found why we often feel such a strong need to look at our phones. Using the mobile phone, they say, is contagious (蔓延的).A team says people are twice as likely to pull out their phones to check their text messages or e-mails if they’re with someone that has just done the same. They also found that women were more likely to use their mobile phones than men. The team watched students in dining halls and coffee shops around the college, observing pairs of college students sitting at tables for as long as 20 minutes and recording their cellphone use. “What we found most interesting was just how often people were using their mobile phones,” Dr. Daniel Kruger, the study’s co-author, said. “Every person we studied used his or her phone at least once while one woman was on hers about half of the time. People saw others checking their incoming messages and began to check their own.”“Cellphones create another choice for one’s attention and may both support and disagre e with live social activities,” the researchers wrote. Kruger believed this could be explained by the effects of social inclusion (包含) and exclusion (排除). If one person in a pair starts a conversation through his phone, the other one may feel excluded and then feel the need to get in touch with others so as not to feel left out.The researchers note that they might not get the same result in a study of different people—for example, older adults, who may not havea habit of using cellphones so often.32. From the study we can learn that .A. people can affect each other in using mobile phonesB. using mobile phones has nothing to do with social activitiesC. men are more likely to be affected by others’ using mobile phonesD. the sound of mobile phones makes using mobile phones contagious33. If old adults are studied, the researchers .A. will find that old adults don’t like to use mobile phonesB. will find that mobile phones are harmful to healthC. will no longer like using mobile phonesD. may reach a different result34. Which can best describe the author’s attitude towards using mobile phones?A. Supportive.B. Objective.C. Indifferent.D. Opposed.35. Which can be the best title for the passage?A. How to use mobile phones correctlyB. Why college students like mobile phonesC. Relation between mobile phones and people’s hobbiesD. Something interesting about the habit of using mobile phones第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

The students were not behaving themselves.B. The heated discussions angered the headmaster.C. He thought the headmaster would scold him.D. The headmaster was looking at his students' papers.4.(8分)CSan Francisco has decided that its city government workers can’t use computer programs that recognize faces. It is the first US city to take such a strong step to keep this technology under control.When a computer system identifies a person from their face in a picture, it’s called “facial recognition” (面部识别). Many police departments use facial recognition. It can be helpful when the police just have a picture of a suspect (嫌疑犯),but no other information. Normally, even with facial recognition the police must have other proof showing that a person is guilty. But many people say facial recognition programs aren’t good enough yet. The programs can usually recognize white men. But they’re not so good at identifying women and people with darker skin. They worry that “false matches” --- when the computer thinks it has identified a person, but it’s wrong --- will make innocent (无罪的) people look like criminals.For companies like Amazon and Microsoft, facial recognition is a big business. Amazon has worked hard to sell their facial recognition to police departments around the US. Microsoft sells tools that allow prisons to watch people inside.To work well, facial recognition programs must have a great number of pictures of people. But most people whose pictures are in the systems never gave permission (许可) for their pictures to be used.Many people worry that using computers to identify or track people will decrease freedom. Now, in many places, facial recognition is used to keep people under control and much of public life is watched on security cameras. Similarly, many cities in America and Europe are also almost completely covered by security cameras. Police officers now often wear cameras on their bodies, recording all the time. It’s usually not clear when governments are using facial recognition and how they are using it.Facial recognition is already being used at airports throughout Europe and in the US. The Department of Homeland Security expects to have picture of 97% of the people flying out of the country in the next four years.As these powerful computer programs become more common, San Francisco’s move to control facial recognition is an unusual and strong move to limit the way governments use computers to watch and control people.28.Why do people worry about facial recognition programs?A.They cannot multiply people’s responsibility.B.They cannot help the police identify good people.C.They will mistake innocent people for bad people.D.They will identify black people instead of white people.29.How can facial recognition programs function effectively?panies should work with each other.B.People should have more pictures taken.C.They should include as many pictures as possible.D.Police departments and prisons should be under control.30.What make people feel their freedom is on the decrease?A.There are the police everywhere.B. A lot of security cameras are used.C. More people are forced to stay at home.D. Governments focus more on facial recognition.31. What’s San Francisco’s attitude towards government workers using facial recognition?A. DisapprovingB. SupportiveC. DoubtfulD. Optimistic5.(8分)DMany people think of the brain as a mystery(神秘).They don’t know much about intelligence and how it works.When they think about what intelligence is, many people believe that a person is born either smart, average, or dumb(愚笨的)—and stays that way for life.But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscle — it changes and gets stronger when you use it.And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn.Everyone knows that when you lift weights, your muscles get bigger and you get stronger.A person who can’t lift 20 pounds when they start exercising can get strong enough to lift 100 pounds after working out for a long time.That’s because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise.And when you stop exercising, the muscles shrink(萎缩)and you get weaker.That’s why people say, “Use it or lose it!”But most people don’t know that when they practice and learn new things, parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise.Inside the cortex (脑皮层)of the brain are billions of tiny nerve cells(神经细胞).Communication between these brain cells is what allows us to think and solve problems.When you learn new things, these tiny connections in the brain actually multiply and get stronger.The more you challenge your mind to learn, the more your brain cells grow.Then, things that you once found very hard or even impossible to do seem to become easy.The result is a stronger and smarter brain.Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals’ brains.They found out that animals who lived in a challenging environment, with other animals and toys to play with, were more “aptitudinal”—they were better at solving problems and learning new things.32.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Scientists show strong interest in what intelligence is.B.A new study shows the brain can be developed like a muscle.C.Both muscles and the brain are important to humans.D.Intelligence exists in both humans and animals.33.By using such numbers as 20 and 100 in Paragraph 2,the author tries to provethat .A.exercise plays an important role in keeping muscles strongerB.exercise is more important to people than most of the animalsC.everyone can keep healthy if they do enough exercisesD.everyone should learn as many new things as possible34.Like stronger muscles come from exercise, smarter brains need .A.to be well taken care of B.a good communication between personsC.help from scientists D.our learning new things35.What does the underlined word “aptitudinal” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Strong B.Lovely C.Smart D.Active三、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)6.(10分)How to manage your email inbox36 .We love it and we hate it. We need it and want it, but too often the price we pay is that. As certain as the sun will rise, our inboxes will be full by mid-morning.Honestly, we’ve done it to ourselves. We depend too much on it to communicate and as a result, we have made ourselves pay attention to every one of them. This is terrible, 37 Every time an e-mail interrupts you, it costs time, money, and brainpower.Here are some of my best tips to manage emails:38 You can’t get into work if you check emails every ten minutes. Instead, you should set certain times to check your inbox, like the top of every hour or every 90 minutes. Set a timer on your phone and stick to it.Scan your inbox. 39 At the same time, leave out everything that is unnecessary and answer timely requests first.40 Instead of creating an email, try speaking with the person you want to communicate with. Often, a five-minute conversation on the line is much better than an email.e a phone.B.Set a schedule.C.Talk to the person.D.Email is our friend and the enemy.E.Because email can interrupt our work and life.F.Looking through the emails quickly can save your time.G.Email is becoming more and more important in our lives四、完形填空(本题共计1小题,总分30分)7.(30分)I’ve read lots of stories about family memories.In those 41, I’ve found voice of sadness and longing.It’s true that so much in our daily lives makes us 42 all the time.We find ourselves with less and less time to spend with our 43and friends.I’ve had the same 44 myself.I used to have 45times with my grandfather when we lived together.When I was very young, I often enjoyed spending time in his 46, watching the flowers and watering the fruit trees.But as I grew up, I 47 became “selfish”.Once, when I was 6, we went shopping together.As we took the wrong bus and ended up getting 48 , unable to find our way back, I couldn’t stay 49and shouted rudely in his face.I was so stubborn that I wouldn’t say sorry 50 returning home, thinking I had done nothing wrong.Now I 51 how ridiculous I was at the time!

Albert Einstein has a great effect on science and history.An American university president once said that Einstein had made a new outlook—a new view of the universe.It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity of time and space and so on,but even ordinary men now understand that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.By 1914 young Einstein had been worldfamous.He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin.He had few duties,little teaching and unlimited chances for study,but soon his peace and quiet life were broken by World War I.Einstein hated fighting and killing.The great suffering of the war affected him deeply,and he sat unhappily in his office doing little.He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work. In the years following World War I,honours were increasingly put on him. He became head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics.But he himself refused the effort to put him in a position far above other people.He was well known for his humble (谦逊的) manners.He often said that his success would certainly have been achieved by others if he had never lived.In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize,and he was honoured in Germany until the rise of Nazism when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.1.The main idea of the first paragraph is________.A.the difficulty of Einstein's thought to othersB.the feeling of an American university president towards EinsteinC.the difference between science and historyD.the change in human thought produced by Einstein2.Which of the following statements about Einstein is TRUE?A.He achieved more than other scientists in history.B.Our ideas about the universe differ from one another because of him.C.He kept working until peace came in 1918.D.His research practically stopped during World War I.3.In the years following World War I,________.A.Einstein's theory was soon accepted even by ordinary peopleB.more and more honours went to EinsteinC.Einstein almost had no chances for his researchD.Einstein was not honoured in Germany until the rise of NazismBMalls are popular places for Americans to go. Some people spend so much time at malls that they are called mall rats. Mall rats shop until they drop in the hundreds of stores under one roof.People like malls for many reasons. They feel safe because malls have police stations or private security(安全) guards. Parking is usually free, and the weather inside is always fine. The newest malls have beautiful rest area with waterfalls and large green trees.The largest mall in the United States is the Mall of America in Minnesota. It covers 4.2 million square feet. It has 350 stores, eight night clubs, and a seven-acre(公顷) park! There are parking spaces for 12, 750 cars. About 750, 000 people shop every week.The first indoor mall in the United States was built in 1965 in Edina, Minnesota. People loved doing all their shopping in one place. More malls were built all over the country. Now, malls are like town centers where people come to do many things. They shop, of course. They also eat in food houses that have food from all over the world. They see movies at theatres. Some people even get their daily exercise by doing the new sport of mall walking. Others go to malls to meet friends.In some malls, people can see a doctor or a dentist(牙医) and even attend church. In other words, people can do just about everything in malls. Now residents(居民) can actually live in their favorite shopping center.4. Why have malls become so popular?A. Because people can do everything there.B.
