The relatively traffic-free roads mean that there is little trouble in getting out of the town and into the hills. Girona’s old town itself is a beauty and with plenty of places serving great food and great coffee, there’s a certain magic to the place.Algarve,PortugalPortugal is a cycling destination that has grown in popularity thanks to the large variety of roads in the country. It is not too dissimilar to what you’ll find in the most popular cycling regions,but Portugal just feels that little bit less main stream. Away from the bike, there is also plenty of food to sink your teeth into and local wines to try.Northern Scotland,UKOne of the best places to tour in all of Europe is in fact Scotland. Particularly adventurous cyclists can take advantage of Scotland’s rules on wild camping-Scottish law allows members of the public the right to roam(漫游),while English law does not. It’s a totally liberating way to explore a place and Scotland might just be one of the best ones to do it due to the beautiful scenery and rural landscapes.Julian Alps,SloveniaSlovenia is one of the relatively new kids on the block when it comes to European cycling getaways. A great destination for mountain bikers and road cyclists alike, the country has plenty of brilliant off-road routes and rideable,tricky roads that take you high up into the Julian Alps. It’s no surprise once you’ve ridden here that the country punches well above itsweight in terms of producing world class bike racers.1.What do the first two destinations have in common?A.They supply local wines for visitors.B.They are completely traffic free.C.They have fewer riding routes.D.They serve delicious food.2.Which of the following is your best choice if you love adventure?A.Algarve,Portugal.B.Girona,Spain.C.Northern Scotland,UK.D.Julian Alps,Slovenia.3.What do we know about Julian Alps, Slovenia?A.It produces brilliant mountain climbers.B.It has a short cycling history.C.It welcomes wild campers.D.It is known for rural landscapes.Teenagers’ fitness is now a major concern, to which physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness. Exercise makes your body strong, and helps you to keep the right body weight. Sports scientist Dr. Helen Lopez offers the following advice to teenagers: “First, you need to find out your present level of fitness. Then you can design a programme that will help you become healthier. ”Dr. Lopez points out that there are three levels of fitness that need a change of lifestyle. “Overweight” means that the person gets very little exercise and often has a serious weightproblem. “Inactive” means that the person does not join in many physical activities, but is not seriously overweight. “Active” refers to people who take part in sports and other physical activities, but do not have a high fitness level.According to Dr. Lopez, overweight teenagers should keep active to keep healthy. “Ride a bike, play volleyball or basketball for a while, and go for a twenty-minute walk each day. All these will help to burn calories.” Inactive teenagers should do similar activities, but add some bending and stretching exercises, such as push-ups and sit-ups, starting with twenty of each a day. “Inactive people can take a little more exercise than overweight people because their bodies are stronger,” said Dr. Lopez. The same principle applies to active teenagers.Dr. Lopez suggests one hour a week or more on running and other forms of intensive exercise, together with fifteen minutes a day spent on stretching and bending activities. “These are really important in order to prevent injuries,” Dr. Lopez said. Someweight-training and other body-strengthening exercises could also be planned in the programme in order to increase the person’s strength.4.Which of the following statements is NOT the reason why physical exercise is important? A.It can make the teenagers grow taller.B.It can help teenagers become healthier. C.It can help to burn up calories.D.It can increase teenagers’ strength. 5.What can we learn from the passage?A.Active people always have a high fitness level.B.Overweight people always take more exercise.C.Inactive teenagers are not seriously overweight.D.Keeping fit means changing teenagers’ lifestyle.6.In order to prevent injuries, you should do some ________ exercises.A.walking B.stretching and bending C.ridingD.weight-training7.What is the best title for the passage?A.Doing exercises B.Teenagers’ Fitness C.Different Lifestyles D.Overweight TeenagersWhen Frank Herbert ordered pizza from Pizza Huts, he was surprised that Judit, at such an old age, worked as a delivery driver. That's when the 89-year-old man first came into the sight of the Herbert family. Judit Newey started delivering pizza in Roy, Utah, to help pay the bills, as his social security benefits (社会保障金) weren't enough to live on. From the moment the Herberts heard him say, “Hello, are you looking for some pizza," Judit found his way into their hearts!Ever since that day, whenever they place an order, they ask for Judit personally. It didn't take long for them to begin recording their sweet meetings and share them on TikTok, which is how thousands of other people fell in love with Judit. Still, his fans couldn't help but wonder why someone at his age was working so hard—question the Herbert family was asking themselves too. They spoke with Judit, and when they found out he works 30 hours a week to make ends meet, they decided to collect donations to make his life easier. They figured anything would help, but the total sum which is up to $12,000 really surprised them!In September, the couple decided to switch things up by showing up at Judit's door with a couple of gifts. First, they surprised him with a cute cartoon shirt of himself holding a pizza box. Then they revealed the surprising act of generosity that brought him to tears! They explained that they had rallied their TikTok community to support him, and while he's not entirely sure what the platform is, he couldn't be more thankful.“How do ever say thank you? I don't know what to say, "he told them. "I don't know what to say, except thank you." The Herberts insisted they were just the messengers. It was his fans who made the wonderful gift possible. Plus, the way they see it, they're just repaying Judit for his kindness.8.What did Judit Newey mean by saying "Hello, are you looking for some pizza,"?A.He was selling pizza.B.He was delivering pizza.C.The Herberts were making the order.D.The Herberts lost some pizza.9.Why does Judit Newey have to deliver pizza at such an old age of 89?A.To help people in need.B.To raise money for the poor.C.To volunteer in a charity.D.To make his living.10.What can be inferred from the text?A.The money the Herberts raised was beyond their expectations.B.The Herberts asked TikTok for help to record their meeting.C.Judit was very thankful because of the support from TikTok.D.Judit worked 30 hours a week to afford his social security benefits.11.Which of the following can best describe the Herberts?A.Helpful and warmhearted.B.Optimistic and wise.C.Generous and hardworking.D.Kind and talented.The mangrove tree might not look very impressive, but it is an essential part of our ecosystem. However, more than half of the mangrove forests have been destroyed in the past century. Several World Heritage Sites have been listed largely because of their mangrove ecosystems. Among them are the Sundarbans across India and Bangladesh, the Everglades National Park in the US, and the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.Being a World Heritage Site requires for the mangroves to be protected. However, one country in Asia has gone further by having a five-year program to protect and conserve all their mangroves. They even have a mangrove museum and observe World Mangrove Day. This country is Sri Lanka. Why are mangrove trees so important to Sri Lanka and to other countries where mangroves grow?The mangrove tree grows along coastal saltwater shorelines. They have adapted to the harsh coastal weather and have deep roots. This means that they are strong and cannot be easily removed. In countries where natural disasters such as tsunamis and cyclones occur, the forests provide protection. The villages in Sri Lanka with full mangrove forests have sufferedless damage when hit by these natural disasters. The reason is that the mangroves break up the force and strength of the waves.The mangroves also quickly absorb carbon dioxide and send oxygen into the atmosphere. This makes them an important part of the fight against climate change. They absorb far more carbon dioxide than other types of forest, and store it in their structure and even in the soil. This is important as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is believed to be a cause of detrimental changes in the weather, such as global warming.The strong roots also provide protection for young fish as they grow. With the oceans around the world being overfished, it is important to maintain the ecological balance in the oceans. For Sri Lanka, one of the threats to the mangrove forests is the shrimp farms being set up. To build saltwater ponds for the shrimps, the mangroves are cut down. This has resultedin fewer fish surviving among the mangrove roots and fewer fish being caught by the fishermen. The local fishing communities noticed that they were losing money and it made them aware of how important the mangroves were. They are now helping to conserve the forests.Sri Lanka is showing that a nation can preserve all of its mangroves. The conservation model they have can be used by other countries. It might take many years of planning, but the benefits of saving mangroves definitely outweigh the costs.12.What do we know about the mangrove trees from the passage?A.They are mainly grown in Australia.B.They can prevent young fish from growing.C.They have been damaged by natural disasters.D.They are less impressive but important to the ecosystem.13.What has been done in Sri Lanka to protect mangroves?A.A world mangrove festival has been founded.B.Saltwater ponds for the shrimps have been set up.C.A 5-year mangroves protecting program has been started.D.More mangroves along the coastal areas have been grown.14.What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A.The mangroves can keep the ecological balance in the oceans.B.The mangroves are essential for fighting against climate change.C.The mangroves have deep roots and hold the soil in place firmly.D.The mangroves can break up the force and strength of the waves.15.What is the author’s attitude towards the future conservation of mangroves? A.Positive.B.Negative.C.Doubtful.D.Unclear.二、七选五(共10分)Many experts are calling the growing problem of global waste a worldwide health crisis in since pollution from trash is not only harming the world’s oceans, air and soil but also endangering people’s health as well as the livelihood of all living creatures.Reduce, reuse, recycleSuch a dilemma raises the question, is there a more responsible way of dealing with trash? Fortunately, there is. ___16___One example of this is what’s often called the three Rs: reduce, reuse, recycle. Reducing the use of plastic containers as well as reusing and recycling bottles and cans decreases the amount of garbage being sent to landfills. As a result, less money is spent on waste management, and countries’ financial burdens are significantly relieved. Such positive effects on an economy are known as a circular economy.Circular economyTraditionally, manufacturers would make a product to be used and disposed of by consumers. This linear (直线型的) model of production offered no help in the fight against global waste. ___17___.Once a product’s value is exhausted, the materials are recycled and returned tomanufacturers. The outcome is less waste. One large-scale example of this is happening on the island of Taiwan.___18___In 1997, Taiwan established its signature 4-in-1 Recycling Program, consisting of communities, government cleaning teams, recycling companies and the Recycling Fund. Residents separate their recyclable waste. The local government collection teams collectit.___19___. Importers and manufacturers who are responsible for the recyclable products pay a fee into the Recycling Fund. The Recycling Fund is an essential aspect of the program used to subsidize (补贴) the recycling disposal system, support education and research and development as well as finance recycling efforts in the future.Turning garbage into goldBy following a circular system, more products than ever are being manufactured using recycled materials. Environmentally-friendly decisions like these help to conserve natural resources, reduce pollution, save landfill space and even create new job opportunities.___20___.A.Practices in TaiwanB.4-in-1 Recycling ProgramC.Recycling can truly turn garbage into goldD.Living a zero-waste lifestyle is the way to goE.Alternatively, a circular economy was introducedF.The recyclable waste is recycled in many local factoriesG.Recycling companies buy waste materials from them to make profits三、完形填空(共30分)From childhood to old age, we all use language as a means of broadening our knowledge of ourselves and the world about us.

Therefore, there are critical ____27____times for language development.Current ____28____of innateness theory are mixed, however, evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable. ____29____, more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in the lower grades. Young children often can learn several languages by being exposed to them, while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the ____30____of their first language have become firmly fixed.Although some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically in a vacuum.

Reading comprehension (40’)AMany people have tried to simplify the spelling of English word. Unlike other languages, English spells the same sounds in very different ways. For example, there is ‘light’ but ‘white’, ‘loan’ but ‘phone’, and there are at least seven different ways of pronouncing the sound ‘ough’! Each of the following words is pronounced differently: ‘though’, ‘through’, ‘bough’, ‘cough’, ‘enough’, ‘ought’, and ‘thorough’.The great Irish writer, George Bernard Shaw, was very interested in making English spelling more logical. The American president Theodore Roosevelt almost succeeded in doing this.In 1906 one of the richest men in America, Andrew Carnegie, started the Simplified Spelling Board. This Board was a group of people whose plan was to make the spelling of words nearer to the way they sounded. For example, the word ‘though’ would be spelt ‘tho’, ‘through’ would became ‘thru’ (which it did, but much later), ‘enough’ would become ‘enuf’, and so on. Other people on the Board were Melvin Dewey, the head of the New York libraries, and Professor Brander Matthews of Columbia University.They took the idea to President Roosevelt who thought it was a very good one. He immediately told the government printer to use the simplified spelling on all government letters.But people do not like change – even change that makes life easier – and many people disliked the new, simpler spelling. The British –who probably thought they owned the English language –were particularly angry. More importantly, when American politicians discussed the plan, they did not like it. Because Roosevelt did not want to have a problem with the politicians, he changed his plans and told the printer to go back to the old way of spelling.Since then no one in any government has dared to try to simplify English spelling. However, people do simplify many words, mainly in advertisements. We often see ‘tonite’ instead of ‘tonight’, for example, and ‘thru’ instead of ‘through’.56. The passage is about ________.A. President Roosevelt.B. people who tried to simplify English spellingC. the way that advertisements simplify English spellingD. how to pronounce English properly57. People wanted to simplify the spelling of English so that ________.A. words could have several different pronunciationsB. words could be spelt as they were pronouncedC. they could establish the Simplified Spelling BoardD. it was more difficult to read government letters58. Simplified spelling failed because ________.A. it was not easy to understandB. the government didn’t like the ideaC. there were too many new words to learnD. people did not want to changeBWhat Is a Boy?Between the innocence of babyhood and the seriousness of manhood we find a delightful creature called a “boy”.Boys come in different sizes, weights, and colors, but all boys have the same belief: to enjoy every second of every minute of every hour of every day and to fill the air with noise until the adult males pack them off to bed at night.Boys are found everywhere – on top of, under, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around, or jumping to.Mothers spoil them, little girls hate them, older sisters and brothers love them, and God protects them.A boy is TRUTH with dirt on its face, BEAUTY with a cut on its finger, WISDOM with chocolate in its hair, and the HOPE of the future with a snake in its pocket.When you are busy, a boy is a trouble-maker and a noise.When you want him to make a good impression, his brain turns to jelly or else he becomes a wild creature bent on destroying the world and himself with it.A boy is a mixture – he has the stomach of a horse, the digestion of stones and sand, the energy of an atomic bomb, the curiosity of a cat, the imagination of a superman, the shyness of a sweet girl, the brave nature of a bull, the violence of a firecracker, but when you ask him to make something, he has five thumbs on each hand.He likes ice cream, knives, saws, Christmas, comic books, woods, water (in its natural habitat), large animals, Dad, trains, Saturday mornings, and fire engines.He is not much for Sunday schools, company, schools, books without pictures, music lessons, neckties, barbers, girls, overcoats, adults, or bedtime.Nobody else is so early to rise, or so late to supper.Nobody else gets so much fun out of trees, dogs, and breezes.Nobody else can put into one pocket a rusty knife, a half eaten apple, a three-feet rope, six cents and some unknown things.A boy is a magical creature – he is your headache but when you come home at night with only destroyed pieces of your hopes and dreams, he can mend them like new with two magic words, “Hi, Dad!”59.The whole passage is in a tone of _________.A.humor and love B.respect and harmonyC.hope and expectation D.confidence and imagination60.What’s the meaning of the underlined sentence?A.He has altogether five fingers.B.He is slow, foolish and clumsy.C.He becomes clever and smart.D.He cuts his hand with a knife.61.According to the writer, boys appreciate everything in the following except _________.A.ice cream B.comic books C.Saturday mornings D.Sunday schools 62.What does the writer feel about boys?A.He feels curious about their noise.B.He is fed up with these creatures.C.He is amazed by their naughtiness.D.He feels unsafe staying with them.CAustralian scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in order to cut the greenhouse gases they send out, which is thought to be responsible for global warming.Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence (肠胃气胀) contains no methane (甲烷) and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who produce large quantities of the harmful gas.While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a billowing smokestack (烟囱) pushing out carbon dioxide, farm animals’ passing wind contribute a surprisingly high percentage of total emissions (排放物) in some countries.“Fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in Australia is from enteric methane from cattle and sheep,” said Athol Klieve, a senior research scientist with the Queensland state government.“And if you look at another country such as New Zealand, which has got a much higher agricultural base, they’re actually up around 50 percent,” he said.Researchers say the bacteria also makes the digestive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers.But it will take researchers at least three years to isolate (分离) the bacteria, before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.Another group of scientists, meanwhile, has suggested Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos. And about 20 percent of health-conscious Australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.“It’s low in fat, it’s got high protein levels and it’s very clean in the sense that basically it’s the free-range (放养的) animal,” said Peter Ampt of the University of New South Wales’s institute of environmen tal studies.63.Scientists intend to put bacteria into cattle and sheep ________.A. to prevent them from sending out greenhouse gasesB. to help Australian farmers to earn more moneyC. so that they can protect Australian ecosystemD. so that they can make full use of special bacteria64.Athol Klieve seems to believe that ________.A. cattle and sheep produce more carbon dioxideB. less cattle and sheep are raised in New ZealandC. farm animals are to blame for greenhouse gasesD. New Zealand has the most animals in the world 65.The main idea of the text is to ________.A. discuss a better way to protect the earthB. warn farmers of the danger of animal wasteC. illustrate the possible solutions to pollutionD. present a recent study on global warming66.The advantages Peter Ampt lists about kangaroos don’t include ________.A. it is rich in proteinB. it is low in fatC. it is cheaper than beefD. it is cleaner than sheepDAsk any person who is successful in whatever he or she is doing what motivates him/her, and very likely the answer will be "goals". Goal Setting is extremely important to motivation and success. So what motivates you? Why are you in college? If you are in college because that's what your parents want, you may find it difficult to motivate yourself. Sure, it's possible to succeed with someone else providing the motivation for you. ("If you graduate from college, I'll give you a car!" or worse "If you don't graduate from college, you won't get a car.") But motivation that comes from within really makes the difference.Certainly, you need some intelligence, knowledge base, study skills, and time management skills, but if you don't have motivation, you won't get far. Think about this analogy. You have a car with a full tank of gas, a well-tuned engine, good set of tires, quadraphonic CD system, and a sleek, polished exterior(外表). There it sits. This car has incredible potential. However, until a driver sits behind the wheel, puts the key in the ignition(点火装置), and cranks it up, the car doesn't function. You guessed it: the KEY is MOTIVATION.Interest is an important motivator for a student. So is a desire to learn. When you link these two things together, you create success. Often success in an endeavor(努力) leads to more interest and a greater desire to learn, creating an upward spiral(螺旋形) of motivation toward a goal you have established.So be honest with yourself. Are you genuinely interested in being in college? Have you set realistic goals for yourself? How can you develop the internal motivation that really counts? When it comes to motivation, KNOWING is not as important as DOING.67. Why does the writer give the example of a car in the second paragraph?A. Because people can never go far without a good car.B. Because a good car motivates some college students to study harder.C. Because a good car is a symbol of being a success.D. Because motivation leads people to success like it starts a car.68. What is the CORRECT comparison between the internal motivation and the external (外部的)motivation?A. Only the internal motivation can result in success.B. Internal motivation is more important than external motivation.C. Internal motivation and external motivation has equal importance.D. External motivation is enough for people to achieve success.69. According to the article, the following factors can push people towards their goals EXCEPT __________.A. interestB. the desire to learnC. the knowledge of motivationD. the sense of success70. What’s the main purpose of the article?A. To encourage everyone to develop motivation for whatever they are doing..B. To inspire college students to set goals for their college life.C. To imply that the less motivated college students quit the college.D. To call on parents to give up their over-protection of their children.71. What may be the writer’s advice to the potential readers?A. The goals you set for yourself shouldn’t be far beyond your reach.B. You needn’t attend college if you are really not interested in it.C. You should work harder to win praise from others.D. Honesty is the best policy to solve problems in your life.班 姓 座号************************************** 密 封 线 ************************** 密 封 线 *******************************************EChildren in Bosnia-Herzegovina all know the ancient story of the poor woman who caught a golden fish, releasedit, and in return gained wealth and happiness. According to a 1998 Associated Press story, this Balkan fairy tale turned into reality for one poor family. Before the start of the Bosnian war, the Malkoc family lived next to a small lake in the northwestern village of Jezero. One day in 1990, Smajo Malkoc returned from a trip to Austria with an unusual gift for his teenage sons, Dzevad and Catib: an aquarium(鱼缸) with two goldfish. Two years passed before Bosnian Serb forces advanced on Jezero.The women and children fled, and the men stayed back to resist the attacking soldiers. Smajo Malkoc was killed. When his wife, Fehima, sneaked back into the destroyed village to bury her husband and rescue what remained of their belongings, she took pity on the fish in the aquarium. She let them out into the nearby lake, saying to herself, "This way, they might be more fortunate than us." Fast-forward to 1995. Fehima Malkoc returned with her sons to Jezero. Nothing but ruins remained of their home and their village. Through misty eyes she looked toward the lake. Glimpsing something strange, she walked over to the shore. "The whole lake was shining from the thousands of golden fish in it," she said. "It made me immediately think of my husband. This was something he left me that I never hoped for." During the years of killing all around the lake, life underwater had flourished. After their return, Fehima Malkoc and her sons started caring for and selling the goldfish. By 1998, homes, stores, and coffee shops all over the region feature aquariums containing fish from Jezero. The Malkoc house, rebuilt on its original site, is one of the biggest in the village. Two new cars are parked in front, and the family says it has enough money to quit worrying about the future." It was a special kind of gift from our father," Dzevad Malkoc said. Whenever one gives, one can never underestimate what a gift of love or an act of kindness might produce. 72. Why did woman let the fish out into the lake ?A .She thought of the fairy tale.B .She did so in memory of her husband. C. She showed mercy to them.D. She intended to get reward from them. 73. What happened to the family when they returned after the war ? A. They could not live around the lake.B. They worked hard to build their home.C. They took good care of the golden fish.D. They made a fortune from golden fish.74. What is the correct order of the following events according to the passage? a. The woman set the golden fish free b. The woman buried her husbandc. The woman slipped back homed. The family rebuilt the housee. The family sold the goldfish A. c, b, a, e, dB. c, a, b, e, dC. b, c, a, d, eD. b, d, a, c, e75. What does the author intend to tell us?A .The more golden fish, the wealthier you ’ll be. B. Golden fish promise a good fortune. C .No pains, no gains. D. Give, and it will be given to you.高三第三次月考英语试题Nov. 22,Part Two for Class 3-10(45’)I1. I _______________________________ his novels and not very keen on reading them.2.

AAllow me to introduce you to Terry, a window salesman from England. If I could take you back about 20 years, you’d know Terry as a complete green hand, who was wet behind the ears in just about everything he attempted. A person couldn ’t sell false teeth to his own Granny, let alone he could compete with the other salespeople in the industry. You know, the kind who could sell snow to Eskimos.Terry’s boss decided to send him out on a practical field trip on his first day. So off he went, but he was extremely nervous. With his hands and his knees shaking, he approached the front door and knocked at is. And old woman appeared. After dozens of cups of tea and pieces of biscuits, the woman signed a contract and purchased over $7,000 worth of windows.The woman had already talked with 6 excellent salesmen that week, all of whom offered her cheaper ones! That’s right---Terry’s price was the most expensive and he was also the most inexperienced salesman there ever was.So, what happened then? Here comes the secret. The woman said she liked the young lad more than the others. That’s all there was to it. She didn’t care about the extra expense. Even the other salesmen couldn’t persuade her to pay less than this young lad was asking for.The truth is that the young lad left on the woman the first impression that shone brighter than any of the salesman’s talk. First impressions count, not the sales techniques, not the low prices. The actual “personality”the kid honestly gave was all that was required. If you market your own products and services, consider what impression you are giving to others. If you appeal to them, then you’ve already done half of the work. If this means redesigning your presentation, then so be it. If this means going out of your way to be polite, helpful and giving the best possible shopping experience to your customers, the so be it.1. When Terry was offered the job of salesman, he .A. was good at sales techniquesB. was too young to do itC. was believed in by his bossD. knew little about sales skills2. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 suggests that .A. Terry could n’t trade with EskimosB. Terry loved his Granny moreC. Terry was too honest to do the jobD. Terry was afraid to compete3. What made the young lad succeed in selling the window to the old woman?A. Being honest and childish.B. First impression of good personality.C. High quality and expensive window.D. Strange ways of sales.4. The passage is most likely written to .A. new salesmenB. general readersC. window makersD. new graduatesBIt’s hard to predict the weather in the near future. It’s even more difficult to know what the climate of the coming season is like. Now you know the winter of 2011/12 was not warm but a freezing one/ many people in the Northern Hemisphere died of cold. but a Native American tribe was fortunate enough to survive the terrible winter because of what was foretold by a weatherman.One day in early September o 2011 the chief of the Native American tribe was asked by his tribal elders if the winter was going to be cold or mild. The chief asked his medicine man, but the man also had lost touch with the reading signs from the natural world around the Great Lakes.In truth, neither of them had idea about how to predict the coming winter. However, the chief decided to take a modern approach, and rang the National Weather Service in Gaylord Michigan.“Yes, it is going to be a cold winter,” the weatherman told the chief. Consequently, the chief went back to his tribe and told his tribe people to collect plenty of firewood.A fortnight later the chief called the National Weather Service and asked for an update. “Are you still forecasting a cold winter?” he asked.“Yes, very cold,” the weatherman told him.As a result of this brief conversation the chief went back to the tribe people to collect every bit of wood they could find.A month later the chief called the National Weather Service once more and asked about the coming winter. “Yes,” he was told, “it s going to be one of the coldest winters ever.”The weatherman was right! And the Native American tribe went comfortably through the terrifying winter. The chief was thankful and curious. He rang the weatherman again and asked, “How can you be so sure about it tat it was freezing winter?”The weatherman replied, “Because the Native American tribe of the Great Lakes are collecting wood like crazy.”5.

The chief rang the weatherman several times out of .A. angerB. excitementC. curiosityD. doubtCImagine you are standing on the 70th floor of the Empire State Building, staring at the cityscape. Suddenly a man pushes past you, opens the window and announces his intention to jump. You yell out, “Stop! Don’t do it!” the six-foot-five figure turns to you and menacingly (恐吓地) says, “Try to stop me and I’ll take you with me!”“Umm… No problem, sir. have a good trip. any last words?”“Let me tell you my troubles,”he says, “my wife left me, my kids won’t talk to me, I lost my job and my pet turtle died, so why should I go on living?”Suddenly you have a flash of inspiration. “Sir, close your eyes for a minute and imagine that you are blind. No colors, no sights of children playing, no fields of flowers, no sunset. Now imagine that suddenly there’s a miracle. You open your eyes and your vision is restored! Are you going to jump? Or will you stick around for a week to enjoy the sights?”“I’ll stay for a week.”“But what happened to all the troubles?”“I guess they’re not so bad. I can see!”“Well, your eyesight is worth at least five million dollars. You’re a rich man!”If you really appreciate your eyesight, the other pains are insignificant. But if you take it all for granted, then nothing in life will ever truly give you joy. Actually, there are misconceptions on the road to happiness.misconception1: “Once I know the tools for being happy, then it will work like magic.”Don’t expect the results to come automatically. It is possible to understand how to achieve happiness, yet not put it into practice. In fact, many people actually prefer to be comfortable and unhappy, rather than bear the discomfort of changing their habits. Just as learning any new skill requires effort, you have to be willing to invest serious effort to achieve real happiness.Misconception 2: “if I become content and satisfied with what I have, I’ll lose my motivation to achieve more.”Now ask someone who is depressed, “Let’s go fishing!”“I’m tired. Maybe tomorrow. And anyway, I might rain…” in reality, happy people are energetic and ambitious. There’s never enough time to do everything they want to do.Misconception 3:A beautiful Sunday afternoon, you’re in the park having a picnic with friends. Suddenly one person complains: “who forgot the forks? It’s too hot for volleyball. I want to go home already.”When our mood negatively affects others, we recognize we have duty to be happy and not spoil the fun. But what about when we’re at home with our family? Or when we go into the office on Monday morning? like an open pit in the middle of the road, a sourpuss(牢骚满腹的人) is a public danger. Being happy is part of being considerate to the people around us.9. The story is placed at the beginning of the passage in orderto .A. tell a skill of persuasionB. warn the danger of standing on a tall buildingC. emphasize the importance of eyesightD. introduce the theme of the passage10. What can be inferred from the underlined sentences?A. Everything has a price.B. We should value what we have.C. Every dog has its day.D. Eyesight is more important.11. What is right about happy?A. Happy is a gift.B. Happy is limited.C. Happy is contagious (会传染的).D. Happy is no more than a skill.12. The best subtitle of Misconception 3 is .A. If unhappy occurs at home, I needn’t pretend to be happyB. If I can’t make others unhappy, I won’t be happy.C. If someone is happy, then others around them are happy.D. If I want to be depressed, that’s my own prerogative.DBuckingham Palace has a history that dates back over 500 years and has changed hands on numerous occasions, however, much of the building that remains standing today is from the original structure built in the early 1700's.In the beginning Buckingham Palace was originally known as Buckingham House. However, in 1762 George III liked the house so much that he bought it for 28,000 and renamed it "The Queen's House". The reason for this was down to the fact that he bought the house to give to his wife Charlotte. Shortly after he did this, work soon began in order to remodel the house with the help of Sir William Chambers. This trend then continued with the accession of George IV in 1820 when he decided to reconstruct the house but he still used it for the same purpose that his father did.One of the biggest physical changes to the house occurred several years later when the king had a change of mind. It was in 1826 that King George IV set about transforming the house into what it is known today, Buckingham Palace. He did this with the help of an architect known as John Nash.The work that Nash carried out involved doubling the size of the main block through adding a new suite of rooms on the garden side facing the west. He then faced this with mellow Bath stone, which reflected the French neo-classical influence favored by George IV. Many of the rooms that Nash added still remain pretty much unchanged today.The palace as it stands today acts as not only the London residence of Her Majesty the Queen but also the administrative headquarters of the Royal Household. It is in fact one of the few working royal palaces that remain in the world today. The state rooms are extensively used by the Queen as well as members of the royal family as a way of receiving and entertaining guests on state, ceremonial and official occasions.13. George IV reconstructed Buckingham House probably to .A. please his own wifeB. satisfy his sonC. sell at a good priceD. honor his old father14. One of the biggest changes to Buckingham Palace took placein .A. 1762B. 1820C. 1826D. 182915. The last paragraph mainly tells usA. how important Buckingham Palace is todayB. what Buckingham Palace is like todayC. some information of royal palaces in the worldD. how Buckingham Palace is used today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。
高三英语3月模拟试题高三全册英语试题
领兑市安插阳光实验学校渤海中学高三英语3月模拟试题第Ⅰ卷选择题(共60分)第一阅读理解第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
ASome people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know?Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbooks(平装本), which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia(百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books, science textbook, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets.1.It can be inferred from the passage that________.A.TV programs are a chief provider of knowledgeB.cinemas are the best choice in getting informationC.reading is a cheap way of learning and having funD.newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself2.What does the sentence“Television has not killed reading, however”underlined in the second paragraph suggest?A.People only need reading, though. B.Reading is still necessary today.C.Reading is more fun than television. D.Watching television doesn't help reading.3.What can we learn from the passage?A.Fewer and fewer people will buy books.B.A good dictionary should be kept in every home.C.Books with hard covers sell better than paperbooks.D.More people like TV programs about famous men.BIf your boss asks you to work in Moscow this year, he'd offer you more money to do so—or even double that depending on where you live now. That's because Moscow has just been found to be the world's most expensive city for the second year in a row by Mercer Human Resources Consulting.Using the cost of living in New York as a base, Mercer determined Moscow is 34.4 percent more expensive including the cost of housing, transportation, food, clothing, household goods and entertainment(娱乐).A twobedroom flat in Moscow now costs $ 4000 a month: a CD $ 24.83, and an international newspaper $ 6.30, according to Mercer. By comparison, a fast food meal with a hamburger(汉堡包)is a_steal at $ 4.80.London takes the No. 2 place, up from No. 5 a year ago, thanks to higher cost of housing and a stronger British pound relative to the dollar. Mercer estimates(估算)London is 26 percent more expensive than New York these days. Following London closely are Seoul and Tokyo, both of which are 22 percent more expensive than New York, while No. 5 Hong Kong is 19 percent more costly.Among North American cities, New York and Los Angeles are the most expensive and are the only two listed in the top 50 of the world's most expensive cities. But both have fallen since last year's study—New York came in 15th, down from 10th place, while Los Angeles fell to 42nd from 29th place a year ago. San Francisco came in a distant third at No. 54, down 20 places from a year earlier.Toronto, meanwhile, is Canada's most expensive city but fell 35 places to take 82nd place worldwide. In Australia, Sydney is the priciest place to live in and No. 21 worldwide.4.What do the underlined words“a steal”in Paragraph 3 mean?A.an act of stealing B.something deliciousC.something very cheap D.an act of buying5.London has become the second most expensive city becauseof________.A.the high cost of clothing B.the stronger pound against the dollarC.its expensive transportation D.the high prices of fast food meals6.Which city is the third most expensive on the list?A.Tokyo. B.Hong Kong. C.Moscow. D.Sydney.7.Which city has dropped most on the list in North America?A.New York. B.Los Angeles. C.San Francisco. D.Toronto.CCOME TO NEWYORK ANDSEE THE WORLDIf you’re looking for the place that has everything, there’s onlyone place to visit, and that is New York. It’s a whole world in a city.The World of Theatre: All of New York is a stage. And it begins with Broadway. Where else can you find so many hit shows in one place? Only in New York.The World of Music: Spend an evening with Beethoven at Lincoln Centre. Swing to the great jazz of Greenwich Village. Or rock yourself silly at the hottest dance spots found anywhere.The World of Art: From Rembrandt to Picasso. From Egyptian tombs to Indian teepees. Whatever kind of art you like, you will find it in New York.The World of Fine Dining: Whether it’s roast Beijing duck in Chinatown, lasagna in Little Italy, or the finest French coq au vin found anywhere, there is a world of great taste waiting for you in New York.The World of Sights: What other city has a Statue of Liberty? A Rockefeller Centre? Or a Bronx Zoo?8. Which of the following program can a visitor have only in New York?A. To enjoy roast Beijing duck.B. To taste the finest French coq au vin.C. To spend an evening with Beethoven.D. To see the Statue of Liberty.9. From the text we know that “Rembrandt” is most likely the name ofa famous ______.A. singer B. painting C. play D. painter10. What the writer really wanted to do is to _____.A. try to persuade reader to pay a visit to New YorkB. give reader some information about New YorkC supply readers with some wonderful program in New YorkD. help readers to get a better understanding of New York.11. The passage above may be taken from ______.A. a guidebook for foreignersB. a handbook for English learnersC. a pocketbook for visiting businessmenD. a storybook for native readers.DHave you ever wondered why malls, restaurants, and even theaters have music playing? Well, just look back at how you have felt when you have heard music playing at these places. Playing the right type of music can help people feel better. Music also has an effect on your concentration (集中注意力). Music even helps patients feel better and helps them recover faster and better.Depression (沮丧) is a state of mind that most of us experience at some point of time. There are periods in our life when everything can seem difficult. Studies have shown that music can be a major mood (心情) lifter in such situations. Music also plays a great role in reducinganxiety. Anxiety often causes lack (不足) of sleep and other related problems.Music is often known as the international language. We may not know the language another person is speaking but most of us respond to music in the same manner. Music is one of the best ways to lift your moods, but this can depend a lot on the type of music you listen to. While happy music can make you feel better, sad music can further drown your spirits. If the tempo (拍子) is fast, you will become excited and dance to the music. Listening to classical music can often make you feel powerful while soft music can be the perfect way to help you relax at the end of a long day.If you want to use music to change the way you are feeling, you need to recognize the type of music that can lift your moods. Once you know the type of music you can use, you can use it to change the way you feel.12. What type of music should you listen to after a tiring day?A. Classical music.B. Rock music.C. Sad music.D. Soft music.13. The effects of music include .a. making us feel relaxedb. helping us sleep wellc. helping us concentrated. lowering our spiritse. helping patients recoverf. helping us communicate well with any personA. abfB. abdfC. abcdeD. abcdef14. What does the author advise us to do in the last paragraph?A. To listen to proper music.B. To learn to play an instrument.C. To enjoy some music every day.D. To listen to music as much as possible.15. What can be used as the best title of the passage?A. How music affects our healthB. The effects of music on our moodsC. How to choose the right type of musicD. Why music is called the international language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 topic of my speech is “Let’s Ride Bicycles”.As is known to all, with the improvement of people’s living standards, cars have become a popular means of transport, bringing great convenience to our life. However, they have also caused some problems such as air pollution and traffic jams.How can we solve the problems then? As far as I’m concerned, riding bicycles is a good solution. For one thing, bicycles don’t need any petrol and they are energy – saving. For another, bicycles are environmentally friendly because they won’t give off waste gas. What’s more, riding bicycles is a good way for us to exercise and it is beneficial to our health.Therefore, let’s take the responsibility to build up a low carbon city by riding bicycles. Come on and join us!Thank you!。

高考高三英语3月模拟考试试题(九)
珠海市普通高中2019届高考高三英语3月模拟考试试题(九)阅读部分02AThe original plans for the park were on 8 acres next to the Burbank studios where his employees and families could go to relax. Although, World War II put those plans on hold. During the war, Disney had time to come up with new ideas, and creations for his magical park. It was soon clear that 8 acres wouldn't be enough.Finally in 1953, he had the Stanford Research Institute conduct a survey for a 100-acre site, outside of Los Angeles. He needed space to build rivers, waterfalls, and mountains; he would have flying elephants and giant teacups; a fairy-tale castle, moon rockets, and a scenic railway; all inside a magic kingdom he called "Disneyland."The search for the best venue for the park ended in the rural Anaheim, California with a purchase of a 160-acre orange grove near the junction of the Santa Ana Freeway (I-5) and Harbor Boulevard.Construction for Disneyland began on July 21, 1954, 12 months before the park was scheduled to open.Some 160-acres of citrus trees had been cleared and 15 houses moved to make room for the park. However, when the real designing came around, Disney met with inevitable questions. How do you make believable wild animals, that aren't real? How do you make a Mississippi paddle ship? How do you go about building a huge castle in the middle of Anaheim, California? Disney asked his movie studio staff for answers. The design of Disneyland was something never done before. There would be four uniquely different theme parts: Adventureland, Frontierland, Fantasyland Tomorrow land. Bit by bit, Disneyland got ready for Opening Day. The staff worked around the clock to get ready.But opening day was a terrible disaster. Besides the terrible opening day conditions, the park did eventually pick up. By 1965, ten years after opening day, 50 Million visitors had come through the gates.36. The passage is mainly about___________.A. How Disneyland came into beingB. The difficulties Disney met in building DisneylandC. What visitors can enjoy in Disneyland.D. A brief introduction to Disneyland37. Which of the following dates would probably be the opening date of Disneyland?A. 1953B. 1954C. 1955D. 196538. Which of the following statements is Not True?A. World War II had some influence on the building plan of the Disneyland.B. Disney must have met many difficulties in building Disneyland.C. Disney was a great man with great imagination and creativity.D. About 50 million visitors have visited Disneyland so far.39.

Disco at The Lord Napier.B. Jazz at The Bull’s HeadC. The electric accordion at The Derby Arms.D. The sing-along at The Black Horse.. CPeople do not analyze every problem they meet. Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a similar problem. They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking. They try to find a solution by trial and error. However, when all these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There aresix stages in analyzing a problem.First the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle. Next the thinker must define the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must find out the reason why it does not work. For instance, he must determine if the problem is with the gears, the brakes, or the frame. He must make his problem more specific.Now the person must look for information that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible solutions. For instance, suppose Sam decided that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the gear wheels. At this time, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about gears. He can talk to his friends at the bike shop. He can look at his gears carefully.After studying the problem, the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an illustration. His suggestions might be: put oil on the gear wheels; buy new gear wheels and replace the old ones; tighten or loosen the gear wheels.Eventually one suggestion seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the final idea comes very suddenly because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a new way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees that there is a piece of chewing gum between the gear wheels. He immediately realizes the solution to his problem: he must clean the gear wheels.Finally the solution is tested. Sam cleans the gear wheels and finds that afterwards his bicycle works perfectly. In short , he has solved the problem.43. By referring to Sa m’s broken bicycle, the author intends to _________.A. illustrate the ways to repair his bicycleB. discuss the problems of his bicycleC. tell us how to solve a problemD. show us how to analyze a problem44. Which of the following is NOT true?A. People do not analyze the problem they meet.B. People often accept the opinions or ideas of other people.C. People may learn from their past experience.D. People can not solve some problems they meet.45. As used in the last sentence, the phrase “in short” means _________.A. in the short termB. in detailC. in a wordD. in the end46. . In analyzing a problem we should do all the following except .A. recognize and define the problemB. look for information to make the problem clearerC. have suggestions for a possible solutionD. find a solution by trial or mistakeDThe campaign is over. The celebrations have ended. And the work for US president-elect Barack Obama has begun.The 47-year-old politician rose to the highest post because of his stand against the war in Iraq and his plans to fix a weak economy. But what will the first 47-year-old African-American president do for race relations?Obama’s victory appears to have given blacks and other minorities a true national role model. For years, many looked to athletes and musicians for inspiration. As Darius Turner, anAfrican-American high school student in Los Angeles, told the Los Angeles Times, “Kobe doesn’t have to be everybody’s role model anymore.”Recent polls(民意测验)also suggest that Obama’s victory has given Americans new optimism about race relations. For example, a USA Today poll found that two-thirds of Americans believe relations between blacks and whites “will finally be worked out”. This is the most hopeful response since the question was first asked during the civil rights revolution in 1963.However, it’s still too early to tell whether Obama’s presidency will begin to solve many of the social problems facing low-income black communities.Although blacks make up only 13 percent of the US population, 55 percent of all prisoners are African-American. Such numbers can be blamed on any number of factors on America’s racist past, a failure of government policy and the collapse(瓦解)of the family unit in black communities.It is unlikely that Obama will be able to reverse (扭转) such trends overnight. However, Bill Bank, an expert of African-American Studies, says that eventually young blacks need to find role models in their own communities. “That’s not Martin Luther King, and not Barack Obama,” he told the Los Angeles Times. “It’s actually the people closest to them. Barack only has so much influence.”In the opinion of black British poli tician Trevor Phillips, Obama’s rise will contribute more to multiculturalism than to race relations in the US.“When the G8 meets, the four most important people in the room will be the president of China, the prime minister of India, the prime ministe r of Japan and Barak Obama,” he told London’s The Times newspaper. “It will be the first time we’ve seen that on our television screens. That will be a huge psychological shift (心理转变) for both the white people and the colored ones in the world.”47. For years, before Obama was elected president of the US, __________.A. Kobe was the only role model for all the blacksB. blacks could only find role models on the basketball courtC. minorities in America couldn’t find role models in their real lifeD. American blacks had no role model who was successful in political area48. According to Bill Bank, ____________.A. it’s better for young blacks to find role models in those who are close to themB. young blacks should not be so much influenced by ObamaC. blacks should find other role models because Obama is far from their realityD. Obama is not the proper role model for African-Americans49. What would be the best title for this passage?A. The First African-American PresidentB. America’s New Role ModelC. Obama-- A Successful Black .D. Choosing a Right Role Model50. What will be the huge psychological shift Trevor mentioned at the end of the passage?A. The other three leaders all support Obama.B. Obama is an African-American president.C. None of the four leaders is white.D. The other three leaders except Obama are from Asian countries.第四节.七选五(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)Four goals for Perfect LifeHealthy and FitThe first goal common to all of us is health and energy. ___51___Today, with the incredible advances in medical science, the quality of our health and fitness, and our lifespan(寿命), is largely determined by design, not by chance. People with excellent health habits are far healthier, have more energy, and live longer and better than people who have poor health habits.Excellent Relationships___52___Fully 85% of your happiness will be determined by the quality of your relationships at each stage, and in each area, of your life. How well you get along with people, and how much they like, love and respect you, has more impact on the quality of your life than perhaps any other factor. Do What You LoveThe third common goal is to do work that we enjoy, to do it well, and to be well paid for it. ___53___You want to earn the very most that is possible for you at each stage of your career, whatever you do.___54___The fourth goal we all have in common is to achieve financial independence. ___55___You want to be completely free of financial worries. You want to be able to order dinner in a restaurant without using the price listings to determine what you want to eat.A. We don’t want to get the job that we aren’t well paid and don’t promote faster.B. Achieve Financial IndependenceC. Money is the most important for we can’t go without it.D. You want to reach the point in life where you have enough money so that you never have to worry about money again.E. You want to be able to get and keep the job you want, to get paid more and promoted faster.F. The second goal that we all have in common is to enjoy excellent relationships with the people we like and respect, and who like, love and respect us in turn.G.

并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.ABy the time I reached junior high,I was sure I wanted to be a nurse. If you didn’t study Latin,you couldn’t be a nurse,so I enrolled. Many Latin words were familiar to me. The hard part turned out to be the usage and creating sentences with the words that seemed so easy to pronounce. Several weeks into the course my teacher came to me,saying,“I think you should withdraw from this course. It seems to be too hard for you. ”That was the day I learned I wasn’t smart enough to become a nurse. With shame, I handed in my Latin textbook.After high school,the years raced by. I married and had children. Then one day my husband John came home. “Carol, Max died this afternoon.” I looked at my husband with disbelief. John was touched by this tragedy. Finally one evening he said,“Carol,Jackie has never worked and now she’s alone with four children. I've been thinking — if anything happens to me. I want you to be able to take care of yourself and the children. Why don’t you think about what you’d like to do and get the training you’ll need to do it?”I signed up for the entrance exam for nursing programs. One day I received a letter from the schoo1. I wanted so badly to open it,but with my lack of confidence,I laid it on the kitchen counter saying, “I'm not in the mood for a rejection letter today.”Finally I forced myself to open it. “Dear Carol,”I read. ”We are pleased to inform you that you successfully passed the entrance exam.”An insensitive teacher once stole my dream. If you have a dream, exhaust every effort to reach it. I’ve worked thirty years now as a nurse and I’ve never been more certain that this is what I was meant to be.1.Why did John advise Carol to find a job?A.To support the family B.To provide more money for her kidsC.To live a more colorful life D.To be able to live independently2.From the text, we know what the teacher said____________.A.destroyed Carol’s dream to be a nurse.B.helped Carol find her true interestC.saved Carol from wasting her timeD.encouraged Carol to be careful in learning3.After receiving the letter from the schoo1, Caro1____________.A.was uncertain about the result B.had no mood to read it thenC.didn’t take it seriously at all D.couldn’t wait to open it4.What may be the best title for the text?A.A dream too high to achieve B.Too stupid to be a nurse?C.Never too late to 1earn D.A chance tooimportant to missBA British shopper, Emma Mumford, who was named “the Coupon(优惠券)Queen” has spent just £350 on a luxury(奢侈) Christmas for her and her family--but got £2,500 worth of food, drink and presents thanks to coupons and offers.Ms Mumford is a so-called “extreme couponer” and spends hours hunting out the best deals and bargains.She has been preparing for this Christmas since the end of the last one.Ms Mumford made the huge savings by checking price comparison websites and as a result collected more presents than she needed for Christmas.After sorting out gifts for all of her family, she has even been able to donate £1,000 worth of presents to her local hospital.“It has been so nice to have Christmas sorted an d not having to worry about breaking the bank.I wanted to get high quality presents for my family and show that you can do it without spending a fortune.There is a misconception that everyone who does couponing only gets value products but through my careful shopping I have managed to purchase designer perfumes(香水), a high-end coffee machine .”she explained.She said “What started as a hobby to help me save money has turned into my life and I am able to run a business helping people save money.I know what it feels like to struggle as my ex-partner had a lot of debt which I took on for him.We were in a poor situation where every penny counted.That’s what really inspired me.”She has now turned her bargain-hunting addiction into a business where she searches for the best deals and offer tips to the general public through video blogging and her Facebook Page.“I try and show people that it is just a little bit of work in the beginning but it will eventually pay off.One of the best things to do is just to be a b it forward thinking and save throughout the year.”5.How did Emma make the huge savings?A.She compared prices through websites.B.She hunted out bargains in real shops.C.She used coupons and offers worth £2,500.D.She collected more Christmas presents than needed.6.What does “breaking the bank” in the third paragraph mean?A.Buying presents of low quality.B.Spending more money than you have.C.Breaking into the bank. D.Taking out money from the bank.7.What really inspired Emma to help people save money?A.Her addiction to bargain-hunting.B.The financial difficulties she shared with her ex-partner.C.The poor situation people around her were going through.D.Her experience of running an unsuccessful business.8.Which of the following can best describe Emma?A.Ambitious and creative. B.Sensitive and determined.C.Brave and lucky.D.Careful and caring.CAcross the United States, there are several places where two independent towns grew together to become one city —but kept both their names.Winston-Salem is one of them.It’s a mid-sized city in what’s called the plateau(high land), between the Atlantic Coast and the inland mountains in the state of North Carolina.The Winston part is a relatively new place, founded early this century.It’s home to the nation’s biggest open-air tobacco market .The giant R.J.Reynolds Tobacco Company’s headquarters is in Winston-Salem, and Winston is the name of one of Reynolds’ best-known cigarette brands.Fast-growing Winston soon surrounded the much older town of Salem, so in 1913, people in the area voted to combine them into a single place .From a historical and tourist point of view, Salem, or Old Salem, as it’s called today, is the interesting and unusual part of town.Salem was founded in the 1700s by the Moravians.They spoke German, and their community was religiously based, with single men and single women living apart in separate dormitories.The Moravians greatly valued women’s work and brainpower.In fact, one of the nation’s oldest boarding schools for young women—the Moravians’Salem Academy founded in 1772 — is still in operation .Over the years, Salem lost its Moravian character.That all changed, though, when a nonprofit group began to rehabilitate the historic area.These days Old Salem is what’s called a living history museum, with exhibits, music, and tours of 18th-century houses, bars and Moravian dormitory buildings just seven blocks from the tallestskyscraper(high building) in Winston-Salem .The historic community is booming again.Just as R.J.Reynolds is taking in millions of dollars making cigarettes across town, Old Salem is making about $ 15 million a year in tourism revenue(收入) and donations .9.From the passage we can know that____________.A.Winston-Salem is the name of a cityB.Salem is home to the tobacco marketC.the city Winston-alem has two namesD.Old Salem is the name of a tobacco brand10.It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that__________.A.the two cities benefited each otherB.Salem developed faster than WinstonC.R.J.Reynolds Company has moved into SalemD.the combination meets the wishes of the people11.The underlined word “rehabilitate” in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to “_________”.A.reconstruct B.evaluateC.enlarge D.decorate12.What will probably be talked about in the following part?A.Some other attractions in Winston-Salem.B.How Winston makes profits from tourism.C.Other examples of cities combined by two parts .D.Something about the boarding school for women.DEnergy independence.It has a nice ring to it.Doesn’t it? If you think so, you’re not alone, because energy independence has been the dream of American president for decades, and never more so than in the past few years, when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession.“Energy independence” and its rhetorical (修辞的) companion “energy security” are, however, slippery concepts that are rarely through, though.What is it that we want independence from, exactly?Most people would probably say that they want to be independent from imported oil.But there are reasons that we buy all that oil from elsewhere.The first reason is that we need it to keep our economy running.Yes, there is a trickle(涓涓细流)of biofuel(生物燃料)available, and more may become available, but most biofuels cause economic waste and environmental destruction.Second, Americans have basically decided that they don’t really want to produce all their own oil.They value the environmental quality they preserve over their oil imports from abroad.Vast areas of the United States are off-limits to oil exploration and production in thename of environmental protection.To what extent are Americans really willing to endure the environmental impacts of domestic energy production in order to cut back imports?Third, there are benefits to trade.It allows for economic efficiency, and when we buy things from places that have lower production costs than we do, we benefit.And although you don’t read about this much, the United States is also a large exporter of oil products, selling about 2 million barrels of petroleum products per day to about 90 countries.There is no question that the United States imports a great deal of energy and, in fact, relies on that steady flow to maintain its economy.When that flow is interrupted, we feel the pain in short supplies and higher prices, at the same time, we derive massive economic benefits when we buy the most affordable energy on the world market and when we engage in energy trade around the world.13.What does the author think of biofuels?A.They keep America’s economy running healthily.B.They prove to be a good alternative to petroleum.C.They do not provide a sustainable energy supply.D.They cause serious damage to the environment.14.Why does America rely heavily on oil imports?A.It wants to expand its storage of crude oil.B.Its own oil reserves are quickly running out.C.It wants to keep its own environment intact.D.Its own oil production falls short of demand.15.What does the author say about oil trade?A.It proves profitable to both sides.B.It improves economic efficiency.C.It makes for economic prosperity.D.It saves the cost of oil exploration.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。

Wentworth had been lying down,listening to the radio when it occurred to him that the sound was more like a smoke detector.He jumped out of bed,grabbed a cordless phone and a flashlight,and headed down the hillside toward the noise.He dialed 911 “Is anyone there?”he called out as he approached the house.Wentworth knew that Lubeck lived in the house.Then he heard,“Help me!I’m trapped!”coming from the balcony off Lubeck’s bedroom.“I ran in and yelled,‘Don,where are you?’Then I had to run outside to catch my breath.”After one more attempt inside the house,he gave up and circled around back.But there was no way to get to him.“I shined the flashlight into the woods next to an old shed and noticed a adder,”says Wentworth.He dragged it over to the balcony and pulled Lubeck down just as the second floor of the house collapsed.Wentworth and Lubeck don’t run into each other regularly,but Lubeck now knows that if he ever needs help,Wentworth will be there.Lubeck still chokes up when he tells the story.“I was alone,”he says.“Then I heard the most beautiful s ound in my life.It was Jeremie.”61.According to the text,Lubeck .A.stayed calm in the fireB.couldn’t find a safe way outC.lived on the first floorD.called for help in the fire62.How did Wentworth help Lubeck escape?A.He called 911.B.He went upstairs and took Lubeck out.C.He put out the fireD.He used a ladder and pulled lubeck down.63.Which of the following factors was not mentioned in the text that almost caused Lubeck’s life?A.He was living in his wood home alone that night.B.The storm was too heavy and the fire was too fierce.C.He lived far from the main road and was surrounded by pines.D.He was too frightened to escape from the danger.64.What does the text mainly talk about?A.A near neighbour is better than a distant cousin.B.A good way to get a narrow escape.C.God helps those who help themselves.D.Blood is thicker than water.CCameron thought of himself as merely organized. He certainly did not consider that he took great pains over anything, he did just enough to get it right. Exactly right, of course ,for as he was fond of telling his staff,“if it’s not exactly right,it’s wrong”.Occasionally a worker might be sad on hearing these words,because it meant another hour or so of going over the same bit of work, correcting the mistakes the mistakes which Cameron had patiently pointed out. And doing the corrections exactly right of course.Strangely enough,his department had the reputation for performing the highest quality work in the company,and it was seen,and not only by those who worked in the department,as a sort of elite(出类拔萃)unit.Those programmes that had to work first time,st raight out of the box,Cameron’s men got those.“It’s mission(任务)critical—give it to Camero n”was almost a catch—phrase with his team.It helped that Cameron was not merely particular about things.He wanted things done just so,not because of a personal taste,but because he had discovered through patient experimentation that this was the best way for it to be done.In Cameron’s dictionary, “Take as long as you want”meant that you could work on your task not just in office hours,but that evening,and late into the early hours of the following morning if you so desired.But the project had to be in by its completion date,and yes,done exactly right.Or you did it again.But he would always be regarded,and not least by himself,as someone who had failed to meet requirements,one of those who just couldn’t cut it.You had to face it,if you were not working for Cameron,you were second best.So when word got out that Cameron had messed up big time,the news was greeted with a mixture of sympathy,and entire relief that this perfection too was human.65.Cameron was a .A.software programmerB.a chief scientistC.quality controllerD.head of department66.“Mission-critical”work given to Cameron because.A.Cameron’s work was error—freeB.Cameron was criticalC.he didn’t mind working lateD.he had a good team67.Working for Cameron,people felt that .A.they were part of an eliteB.their mission was criticalC.Cameron was very particular about thingsD.Cameron was patient and responsible68.According to the underlined part in paragraph 5,what is meant by someo ne“who couldn’t cut it”?A.He didn’t cut corners.B.He wasn’t good enough.C.He had the wrong measurements.D.He was a perfection.69.What can we learn about Cameron?A.He never got things Wrong.B.He didn’t allow for any mist ake.C.He encouraged work to be done in office hours.D.He was often misunderstood.70.The attitude of the author towards Cameron is that of being .A.positiveB.sympatheticC.non-subjectiveD.optimisticDEvery year holidays Broughton teams up with Sopraviva Trekking to offer twelve days of unforgettable adventure in a tropical rain forest.Depending on where this year’s rain forest adventure is located,you may be going to Borneo, Malaysia,Indonesia,or even to the greatest rain forest of them all,the mighty Amazonian forest.You will fly with your fellow adventurers to one of our special base camps at the edge of the forest,where you will be given five days of survival training,and talks on the local wildlife by trained and experienced experts.You will also go on walks which take you deeper and deeper under the forest canopy until on your final night you camp out in the rain forest itself.Then you transfer by bus into the forest itself.If you go on one of the Asian holidays,you will have to walk the final miles to the camp site itself,to avoid disturbing the local ecology.All of the Sopraviva sites have been carefully built to conform with the latest regulations,and to cause the minimal amount of disturbance to the local wildlife.From the camp,you will go on daily walking tours to experience for yourself the beauty and diversity of the forests,and plants and vegetation that can be found nowhere else on the planet.Remember that these adventure holidays take you deep into the wilderness,and they are not suitable for families with youngchildren or for anyone who is not physically able to meet the demands of this kind of adventure.Also remember that in order to preserve the delicate ecological system that you will be walking through ,no more than two dozen guests can stay at any camp at one time,so if you want to go on one of these very special holidays,you will need to book early!71.If you want to go on the camp,you will first have to .A.attend talks on the local wildlifeB.have suvival trainingC.walk the final five milesD.book beforehand72.What does the organizer of the camp mainly stress?A.Disturbing the local ecology.B.Preserving the forest environment.C.Private possessions and possible dangers.D.The survival training73.Go on daily walking tours and you’ll enjoy.A.the wildernessB.the Amazonian forestC.the Asian forestD.the forest canopy74.Which of the following people is/are allowed to enter the forest?A.A family with young kids.B.A person with physical problems.C.Walking touristsD.Cyclists.75.Which of the following is true of the holiday camp?A.It is free of chargeB.It lasts 12 days.C.It is organized by Broughton.D.It attaches little importance to ecology.第四部分:书面表达(共二节,满分45分)第一节:阅读表达(共5小题,每小题3分,满分15分)阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到答案卡相应的位置上(请注意每个小题后面的词数要求)。
