Her recent book Cheongsam with beautiful illustrations tellshow the style of the dress has changed in the past 100 years.Lu Mei has been interested in qipao since she read a book by famous writer Zhang Ailing (1920-1995). In 2007, when she was asked to draw the illustrations for a book by Zhang Ailing and the clothes in the book, Lu agreed and started her research on the dress. According to some books, people first wore qipao in the late 1910s and it looked like the robes which were long and wide and only worn by men at that time. In the 1930s, the dress was made into a different style — slimmer cuts(较修身的裁剪) and higher splits(开叉).“Nowadays qipao becomes a fashion choice for women and a symbol of traditional Chinese culture once again, but the dress is different from what it used to be. Because of the film In the Mood for Love, the dress now is much more close-fitting(紧身的),” Lu saidLu Mei loves qipao, but she does not often wear it in her everyday life. Instead of wearing the dress, Lu hopes her readers can learn something meaningful behind the clothes.( )6. The underlined word “elegance” means _______ in Chinese.A. 勤劳B. 宽C. 优雅( )7. We can know the following about Zhang Ailing EXCEPT that _______.A. she was born in ShanghaiB. she died at the age of seventy-fiveC. her book described qipao( )8. Which can describe the style of qipao in the 1930s?A. Short and slim.B. Much more close-fitting.C. Slimmer cuts and higher splits.( )9. What can we infer from the passage?A. Lu Mei thinks the culture of qipao is more meaningful.B. To Chinese women, qipao is their favorite clothes.C. In the Mood for Love made qipao popular and fashionable.( )10. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To show people the beauty of qipao.B. To encourage women to wear qipao.C. To introduce a qipao lover to people.DFew of us have heard of Nils Bohlin, but whenever we take a carjourney, his invention makes us safer. Found in almost every modern car,the three-point seat belt reduces(减少) our chances of death or injury(伤害)by at least 50%. While feeling thankful to this engineer from Volvo, youmay also wonder how he came up with such a great idea.Having worked as a plane designer before, Nils knew clearly that the pilots were willing to put on anything to keep them safe in an accident, but to his surprise, most people in the cars just didn’t want to be uncomfortable for even a minute. To improve the safety for people in the cars, he decided to find a perfect system which should be simple, effective and convenient. In the end, he invented the three-point seat belt, which has been considered as one of the greatest inventions in history.Seat belts prevent people in the cars from serious injury in five ways.Keep people inside. People who are thrown out from a car are four times more likely to be killed than those who stay inside.Protect the strongest parts of the body. Seat belts are designed to fix your body at its strongest parts. For an older child and adult, these parts are the hips(臀部) and shoulders.Spread out the force in an accident. Seat belts spread the force of the accident over a wide area of the body. By putting less stress on one area, they can help you avoid serious injury. Seat belts also help keep your upper body away from the hard parts of the car if you stop suddenly or hit by another car.Help the body to slow down. A quick speed causes injury. With the help of the seat belts, your body can have more time to slow down in an accident.Protect your brain and spinal cord(脊柱). Seat belts are designed to protect these two key areas of the human body. Head and spinal cord injuries may be hard to see immediately, but they can cause death. Therefore, it’s of great importance to protect these parts.It takes only a few seconds to buckle up once you get in the car, but this simple action could save your life. Why wouldn’t you?( )11. Three-point seat belts reduce chances of death or injury by at least _______.A. 30%B. 40%C. 50%( )12. Nils Bohlin invented the three-point seat belt in order to _______.A. take a car journey quicklyB. show thanks to the engineerC. improve the safety for people in the cars( )13. From the passage we can learn _______.A. seat belts can keep your knees and feet away from the hard parts of the carB. the body has more time to slow down in an accident with the help of seat beltsC. head and spinal cord injuries might be easy to see immediately and cause death ( )14. The underlined phrase “buckle up” probably means _______ in Chinese.A. 保持冷静B. 克服压力C. 系好安全带( )15. This passage is mainly about _______.A. how seat belts develop betterB. how seat belts are usedC. how seat belts save lives第二节阅读下面短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

湖南省湖南师范大学附属中学2023-2024学年高三上学期第三次月考英语试题
湖南省湖南师范大学附属中学2023-2024学年高三上学期第三次月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Cannes(戛纳)is a place that offers lots of different ways to spoil yourself. During the Cannes Film Festival in May, nothing changes, except that there are more people doing this, and that they talk about film. Here’s a guide to what you should do during the festival, both film-related and not.Hotel Intercontinental CarltonThe film festival is a busy time for Cannes. The best way to appreciate the crowds might be having a dinner on a terrace(露天平台). Head to the Hotel Intercontinental Carlton and wander the lobby to take it all in. If you’re lucky you might be able to secure a table in the restaurant. Dress to impress or you won’t stand a chance of getting in.Cinema de la PlageThroughout the Cannes Film Festival, one of the best places to soak up some of the wonderful atmosphere is the open-air Cinema de la Plage at Mace beach. If you haven’t secured a ticket in advance for a seat, there’s no need to worry. You can spread a blanket out on the ground, open up your pre-prepared picnic, and enjoy the movie.Marché ForvilleThe Marché Forville is a must-see for any visitor to Cannes and a foodie’．s delight. On most days, vendors sell home-made fruits and vegetables as well as local specialties to eat for lunch. But don’t go on Mondays, unless you want to browse for bargains, as that’s when the flea market is on instead.La CroisetteLa Croisette is the most famous walk in Cannes and is listed under the cultural inventory of France itself. Stroll the whole length, stop for a coffee, and end your walk by sitting on one of the free blue chairs along the way while taking in the view. It is also a great place to admire Cannes’ sculptures.1．What is probably the intention of the text?A．To introduce French culture.B．To present dining locations.C．To publicize a film festival.D．To suggest tourism activities.2．Which place best suits people who enjoy shopping?A．Hotel Intercontinental Carlton.B．Cinema de la Plage.C．Marché Forville.D．La Croisette.3．What can be expected in Cannes during the festival?A．Attending fashion shows.B．Watching movies outdoors.C．Tasting imported farm produce.D．Experiencing sculpture production.Coming into the freshman year at Paul College, Sansa was concerned about her ability as an individual to make an impact on such a large community, for it was never hard for her to stand out from peers in high school. Luckily, each first-year student in Paul College takes part in what is called the First-year Innovation and Research Experience, commonly referred to as the FIRE Program, an extracurricular project assigned by the institution. She was able to forge invaluable connections with her fellow students and their peer advisor who had so much first-hand experience with what they all were going through.The biggest highlight of her freshman year was working alongside her FIRE team on a Grand Challenge Project, in which every FIRE team competed against one another in the Undergraduate Research Conference. Each team had to create a unique product that tackled one of the five following real-world problems: “Water is Life”, “Food”, “Threats from Cyberspace”, “Medical Breakthroughs”, and “Addictive Society”. Her team addressed the growing issue of “Addictive Society”. Doing research, collecting facts and organizing discussions or even debates were a huge amount of work before they went to vie with other teams.After weeks of tireless preparation, their collective efforts bore fruit at the Undergraduate Research Conference. They earned a spot in the final round of the conference, where they competed against the top team from each of the other Grand Challenge groups. They were so overcome with pride when they were finally announced as the overall first-place team at the college!If it hadn’t been for her group’s determination, excellent teamwork and their awesome peer advisor Hayley, they would not have been able to accomplish everything they did. This experience would be instrumental in her future.4．What do we know about Sansa from paragraph 1?A．She performed quite well in high school.B．She was much more experienced than her college schoolmates.C．She applied for the FIRE Program.D．She had trouble with her freshman year.5．How did each team compete against one another?A．By providing facts.B．By creating products.C．By organizing debates.D．By challenging each other.6．What does the underlined phrase “vie with” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Contest against.B．Give way to.C．Break up with.D．Make up with.7．What is probably Sansa’s biggest gain from the FIRE Program?A．Financial benefits.B．Academic reputation.C．Good relationships.D．Competitive opponents.When Jason Allen submitted his “Th éâtre D’．opéra Spatial” into the Colorado StateFair’s fine arts competition, the print was an immediate hit, defeating 20 other artists in the “digitally manipulated photography” category to win the first-place blue ribbon and a $ 300 prize.Allen’s piece offers a clear example of how rapidly AI-generated art has advanced. Trained on billions of internet images, the systems have decisively pushed the boundaries of what computers can create.But it has also sparked a massive debate over the meaning of art, with Allen facing accusations that he had been deceiving with something he asked a machine to create.Text-to-image tools like DALL-E 2 and Midjourney have quickly increased in sophistication and have become one of the hottest topics in AI. They can generate not just fake people, objects and locations but mimic entire visual styles.But AI-generated art has been criticized as automated plagiarism (剽窃), because it relies on millions of ingested art pieces that are then parroted (机械地重复) together. It has also fueled deeper fears: blurring the boundaries of reality or interfering with human art.Allen said his art piece shows people need to “get past their denial and fear” of a technology that could give rise to new inventions and reshape our world. “The AI,” he said,“is a tool, just like the paintbrush is a tool. Without the person, there is no creative force.”Jessica Hair, a 25-year-old receptionist at a doctor’s office who won third place in the competition, said she did not feel as if Allen had acted unfairly and had no hard feelings about his win.Hair said her “Judge, Jury, Executioner”, which depicts a tuxedoed skeleton on a golden throne surrounded by skulls, took 15 hours to create with a stylus (触屏笔) on an iPad Pro. But Allen’s piece took time, effort and subjective judgment, too, and “how do we qualify what is and isn’t art?” she said.8．Which of the following statements can be inferred from the text?A．It is the first time in history that an AI-generated work has won an arts competition.B．Advances made in computer art are not as rapid as the public believes them to be.C．Computer-produced works have more success in some art forms than in others.D．People’s acceptance of computer-produced art pieces can vary considerably. 9．According to the text, why is AI-generated art facing severe criticism?A．Because it will ultimately overtake human art in the future.B．Because it will lead to a sharp decrease in human creativity.C．Because it purely uses existing art pieces as its subject matter.D．Because the technical standard of its output is extremely low.10．What was Allen’s reaction to people’s criticism?A．He fought back like a soldier.B．He kept silent like a victim.C．He persuaded like a promoter.D．He lost heart like a failure.11．What is Jessica Hair’s attitude towards Allen’s award-winning piece?A．Supportive.B．Critical.C．Cautious.D．Skeptical.The streets, sidewalks and roofs of cities all absorb heat during the day, making some urban areas across the United States up to 6 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than rural ones during the day—and 22 degrees F hotter at night. These “urban heat islands”can also develop underground as the city heat spreads downward, beneath the surface. And basements, subway tunnels and other underground infrastructure also constantly bleed heat into the surrounding earth, creating hotspots. Now the underground heat is building up as the planet warms.According to a new study of downtown Chicago, underground hotspots may threaten the very same structures that emit the heat in the first place. Such temperature changes make the ground around them expand and contract (收缩) enough to cause potential damage. “Without anyone realizing it, the city of Chicago’s downtown was deforming,” says the study’s author Alessandro F. Rotta Loria, a civil and environmental engineer at Northwestern University.The findings, published in Communications Engineering, expose a “silent hazard (危险)” to civil infrastructure in cities with soft er ground — especially those near water — Rotta Loria says. “There might have been structural issues caused by this underground climate change that happened, and we didn’t even realize,” he adds. While not an immediate or direct danger to human lives, this previously unknown effect highlights the impacts of a lesser-known component of climate change.Similar to climate change above the surface, these underground changes occur over long periods of time. “These effects took decades, a century, to develop,” Rotta Loria says, adding that elevated underground temperatures would likewise take a long time to dissipate (逐渐消失) on their own.But other researchers interviewed for this story all say this wasted energy could also be recycled, presenting an opportunity to both cool the subsurface and save on energy costs. Subway tunnels and basements could be updated with technologies to recapture the heat. For example, water pipes could be installed to run through underground hotspots and pick up some of the heat energy.12．What can we learn about the “urban heat islands”?A．They can develop underground structures.B．They are impacted by global warming.C．They can destroy the ground around.D．They only exist in the United States.13．Why does Alessandro F. Rotta Loria mention “silent hazard” in paragraph 3?A．To discuss structural issues.B．To categorize climate change.C．To explain underground heat.D．To emphasize the neglected reality.14．What will the author probably write about in the paragraph that follows?A．The future of tunnels and basements.B．The reusing approaches of heat energy.C．The cost of maintaining structures.D．The evolution of underground environment.15．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．Warming Underground, Weakening SurfaceB．A Silver Lining of Global WarmingC．Urban Silent Islands in the MakingD．A Silent Crisis in Downtown Chicago二、七选五Including children in the farming lifestyle has many benefits. Sure, it is nice to have the additional help with chores, but it also fosters so much growth, sending our kids down a good path towards who they will someday become. It is possible that our children will grow up to lead lives that do not include farming. 16Through caring for farm animals, kids learn that in life others often come before self.17 It doesn’t matter if we don’t feel like it or if we are sick and tired. What matters is that we take care of the animals that take care of us and do so in a timely manner.18 If the work on a farm does not get done, the operation fails. It takes discipline and commitment to get down to business every day, and seeing this in action will give kids a good work attitude. They will know and understand that nothing good comes easy and that they have to work to survive. 19 Functioning as part of a productive team will surely be playing a crucial role sooner or later in all walks of life.Additionally, farming teaches patience. 20 It’s especially true for the animals. Cattle will be difficult to control. Horses will run away when you try to catch them. Goats will kick over that bucket of hard-earned milk. A rooster will decide you got too close to his hens and give you a run for your money. In spite of all that, kids will learn to be patient and take things easy.There may not be any instant reward, but in the long-term kids will see the benefit of all their efforts during those hard days.A．Fairly often, things do not go your way.B．Kids also learn to be grateful to animals.C．In the meantime, they learn to work with others.D．Teamwork is no longer a significant skill to develop and use.E．Animals need to be fed and cared for before we get to sit down and relax.F．Kids are also able to comprehend the value of hard work through farm life.G．What they learn on a farm, however, can be instrumental in their future lives.三、完形填空27．A．could B．should C．would D．might 28．A．also B．again C．only D．instead 29．A．responded B．claimed C．updated D．expressed 30．A．odd B．general C．novel D．complicated 31．A．closed B．black C．plain D．blank 32．A．lesson B．blame C．curse D．ban 33．A．open B．click C．use D．function 34．A．refreshing B．crashing C．connecting D．running 35．A．advocate B．tolerate C．appreciate D．understand四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Pet hospitals are very busy. Kind persons who love animals are needed to work in busy animal hospitals. They will teach you the job.( )2. Scientists think that pets will probably be much smaller, because people in the future will be living in much smaller spaces. Scientists are already working on making very small farm animals. The same things might be done to make smaller cats and dogs.( )3. It is said that some day you might own a panther（豹）as a pet. Scientists might have to start turning wild animals into pets. This might be the only way to save them from dying out.( )4. What about a robot for a pet? This may sound silly, but it could become true. Robot dogs have been made for fetch, and bark like real dogs. These “pets”might become more and more popular in the future. After all, robots don’t lose hair or chew on things the way real pets do.( )5. Lots of people miss their pets while they are on holiday. One hotel in Minesota has solved this problem They lend cats to their guests. Many experts believe this idea will become more and more popular.

You have to be careful not to be fooled or tricked(欺骗) by the advertisements on the Internet. Something is said to be a bargain(便宜物品), but it isn’t always cheap. And some so-called new things just have a new outside.However, shopping online is a kind of fashionable(时尚的) thing today. I love to buy things of everyday use, so I often get lots of information about them on websites online. For example, if I want an MP3, I can choose my favourite one, and look for what the users like or don’t like about it, then decide whether to buy or not. And at the same time, you don’t have to go to a shop or walka round a crowded shopping area, so you don’t have to waste much time. The Internet is really useful for shopping, but be careful not to spend too much.Judge the following sentences true (T) false ( F)（）6. If you want to shop online, you should be careful not to be fooled.（）7. The writer thinks that the advertisements online are always true.（）8. MP3 is a kind of book that you can learn music.（）9.

But as he comes from a village, the headmaster who was born in a rich family is bad to him and does his best to make excuses to punish him. The boy knows it and takes precautions against(提防) it.One afternoon all the students went to have lunch and he bought a piece of bread. He was reading a book under a big tree, while a dog was standing near him. At that moment the headmaster came out and saw it. He became angry and said, “Don’t you know we don’t let anybody rear (饲养) dogs in the school?”“Yes, I do, sir. ”said the boy.“Why have you brought your dog to school, then?”“It isn’t my dog. ”“Why is it following you, then?”“You’re following me now, sir. ” said the boy, “Can you say you are mine?”Fill in the blanks according to the passage．Only one word for each blank.Robert is fifteen.

It’s easier to make friends when you have similar interests.Don’t be afraid to show people what you’re really good at. Talk about the things you like and do best. People will be interested in you if there is something interesting about you.Look at people in the eye when you talk to them. That way, they’ll find it easier to t alk to you, or people may think you’re not interested in them and may stop being interested in you.Be a good listener. Let people talk about themselves before talking about “me, me, me”. Ask lots of questions. Show an interest in their answers.Try to make friends with the kind of people you really like, respect (尊敬), and admire (羡慕)-not just with those who are easy to meet.

A new trend is coming in China - “Guochao”.According to a recent report, searches related to “Guochao” on have risen by 170% since last year, and reviews have risen by near 40%. Guochao is happening, but what is it?The word “Guochao” has appeared along with the development of the idea of “Made in China”. “China has recently seen a surge in young people’s interest in Chinese brands and products that include Chinese traditional style and culture, a trend known as Guochao. More and more youth are willing to buy Guochao products.” China Daily explained the word “Guochao”.Guochao got people’s attention in 2018. Before that, big-name foreign companies ruled the world market. Many Chinese brands followed in the footsteps of these Western brands. But that year, Chinese sportswear brand Li-Ning changed things up. During the 2018 New York Fashion Week, Li-Ning introduced its Taoism-inspired Wu Dao collection(以道教为灵感的悟道系列服饰). The collection not only had a popular look, but also included traditional Chinese culture such as Chinese characters. It caught many people’s eyes at home and abroad at once.Since then, the “Guochao” trend has spread to different areas and products , from clothing to food and drinks, mobile phones and electric cars. For example, White Rabbit, whose sweet candy brings back childhood memories for many, introduced its perfume(香水) and lip balm(唇膏). Now, the “Guochao” trend is moving to the next stage. No matter how it changes, there’s o ne thing that won’t change—people’s positive attitude toward the country’s development and their growing confidence in national culture.( )6.

What can be the best title(标题) of the text?A. Fresh Fashion Trend—“Guochao”B. The Rise of Chinese Brands and the Fall of Western BrandsC. The Development of Chinese productsDXiao Yu got diabetes(糖尿病) when she was only 8. Ever since, she has had to inject(注射) herself with insulin(胰岛素) four times a day. Although the process is annoying, “insulin saves my life”, she explained to the Yangtse Evening Post.This year is the 100th anniversary of the discovery of insulin. Before 1921, children and adults with diabetes most often died within a few days or months. Insulin lengthens(加长) this timeline to decades.Back in the 16th century BC, there were records abou t this “terrible disease”. People suffered from nausea(恶心), extreme thirst(极度口渴) and lots of urination(排尿), and soon died in pain. These were all caused by high levels of blood sugar. For thousands of years, humans didn’t know how to deal with it. This cha nged in the 1880s. That’s when scientists found a special substance(物质) named insulin.It controls blood sugar. But scientists didn’t know how to get it.In 1921, Frederick Banting came up with an idea. The Canadian doctor asked his friend for providing him with a lab, and worked tirelessly on 10 dogs. Soon after, he successfully took outinsulin from a dog and used it to treat another dog with diabetes. To his surprise, the insulin made its blood sugar levels go back to normal. Later, Banting and Scottish scientist John Macleod made a more purified(提纯的) form of insulin. They used it to successfully treat a 14-year-old boy who was dying from diabetes.In 1923, Banting and Macleod received the Nobel Prize for their important breakthrough in medical history. To help people get the medicine easily, they sold the patent(专利) for just one dollar. As Banting said, “Insulin belongs to the world, not to me.”Today, there are more than 400 million people with diabetes around the world. Insulin gives them a fighting chance to live.( )11.When was insulin discovered?A. In 1880.B. In 1921.C. In 1923.( )12. Which one is not the symptoms(症状)of diabetes?A. Feeling cold.B.Nausea.C.Extreme thirst.( )13. Which of the following statement(陈述) is TRUE about the passage?A.Insulin was used on patients before 1880s.B.Scientists found insulin easily.C.Insulin made the patients who got diabetes live longer.( )14. Why do Banting and Macleod sold their patent for one dollar?A.Because their findings were based on others research.B.Because they aimed to get a Nobel prize.C.Because they wanted to help more diabetes patients.( )15. In which part of the magazine can we usually read this passage?A. Story.B. Science.C. Culture.第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Bingo!A mile into her walk, she spotted a beautiful female mute swan (疣鼻天鹅) near the water’s edge. Cordova-Rojas, 30, who had worked at the Wild Bird Fund recovery center in Manhattan, knew that mute swans can be battle some. But as she approached this one, it didn’t move. She was certain that the bird needed medical attention. Cordova-Rojas placed her jacket ov er the bird’s head to keep it calm, carefully picked it up, and held it in her arms. And then a thought struck her: What do I do now?Her best bet was the recovery center, but that was across the East River and clear on the other side of town. How was she going to transport a 17-pound swan on her bike all that way? Luckily, some strangers driving by offered her, her bike, and the swan a lift to a nearby subway station. She worried others might be disturbed. However, on the subway, no one seemed particularly fazed by the feathered passenger. One guy, says Cordova-Rojas, was “sitting right in front of me on his phone. I don’t know if he noticed there was a swan in front of him”.Cordova-Rojas called the recovery center, and Tristan Higgin-botham, an animal-care manager, picked her up at the subway station and drove bird, bike, and the rescuer to the facility. There, staff members determined that the swan might have lead poisoning.The staff got the swan back up on her feet. She even made a boyfriend at the center — another injured swan. Sadly, even with all that tender loving care, the swan fell ill with a bacterial infection. Two months after Cordova-Roias came to her rescue, she passed away.It’s a disappointing ending, but the real story is just how far some people are willing to go to save a swan in the big city-literally. In all, Cordova-Rojas traveled two hours by foot, car, and subway (with her bike). “That’s the perfect summary of who she is,” says Higginbotham.4. How did Cordova-Rojas know the swan was in trouble?A．She noticed a scar on the swan.B．She found the swan trapped in water.C．The swan was behaving in an abnormal way.D．The swan attacked her when she came near it.5. What does the underlined word “fazed“ in paragraph 3 mean?A．On top of the world. B．In the wrong.C．On the rocks. D．At a loss.6. How was the swan’s life at the recovery center?A．The swan suffered a lot of pain there.B．The swan enjoyed its staying there.C．The swan’s life there was totally disappointing.D．Many people came to visit the swan,7. What sort of person was Cordova-Rojas?A．Curious and generous. B．Caring and thoughtful.C．Energetic and independent. D．Sensible and straight-forward.A company, called Mario Cucinella Architects, has made the House of Music, a solar-powered (太阳能的) building in Pieve di Cento that celebrates the town’s long-standing musical tradition. Designed to represent an orchestra (管弦乐队), the building is made up of nine small music rooms that connect to a central open space. The curved oak front not only helps to make sound louder like an instrument’s music box, but also ensures high levels of energy efficiency (效率).Finished in 2017 after four years of planning and building, the House of Music of Pieve di Cento is located in the former Lamborghini (a famous Italian car company) production area that had been changed into a park. The recently completed building gets an advantage from a cycling path that connects the House of Music to the town center and beyond to an area to the south. There is also a wooden bench running around the building and creating resting places facing the park.To prevent heat, cold, or noise from passing through the building, Mario Cucinella Architects used a special design for the House of Music. The flat roofs are topped with a series of curved and raised disks (圆盘) that help make unwanted sunlight change its direction and are engineered to bring more natural air into the building. The energy-efficient design was influenced by the architects’ (建筑师的) study of the site.The nine music rooms open up to a central outdoor space that serves as a meeting area. The architects noted, “The House of Music’s outside lighting makes it a comforting place that encourages people to continue to do musical activities after the earthquake that shook the area in 2012.”8. What was the purpose of building the House of Music?A．To praise the town’s musical tradition.B．To remember a famous local musician.C．To attract people outside the town to visit.D．To tell people about the importance of music.9. What do we know about the House of Music?A．It started to be built in 2017.B．It is located in the town center.C．It is supported by a famous car producer.D．It is connected with other areas by a cycling path.10. The architects designed the lighting mainly in order to ______.A．encourage people to keep up their musical activitiesB．warn people of the danger of earthquakesC．make the building noticeable and attractiveD．make full use of energy11. What is the best title of this passage?A．A solar-powered orchestra.B．The advantages of solar-powered buildings.C．A solar-powered House of Music.D．The future of solar-powered buildings.Like many people over the past few years, I have found myself turning to audiobooks as my main means of reading literature. I find it far more comfortable to “read with my ears” while my eyes are resting. My consumption of new books has doubled as a result--but a recent paper makes me wonder if this will come at the price of my comprehension.The study comes from Boaz Keysar and Janet Geipel, both at the University of Chicago, and it draws from the “dual process model” of mental processing. According to this-view, we have two ways of assessing information. System 1 is intuitive (直觉的), relying on natural ability and feeling. It is quick, but likely exposed to misinformation. System 2 is analytical involving the use of logic reasoning. It is mentally demanding. When it is engaged, we think our way through the material step by step. For decades, psychologists have designed various tests to determine which of these two systems a person is using. As one example, consider the/ following question: How many animals of each kind did Moses take on the Ark (方舟)? If you answered two, you were probably only considering the core of the question, which is System 1 thinking. To get to the right answer-zero, you need to think more carefully about the wording, which would allow you to remember it was Noah who built the Ark, not Moses. That is the kind of analytical process.Keysar and Geipel’s brilliant idea was to investigate whether the sensory form-seeing vs. hearing-of the information would make a difference. They found that it did: when answering these kinds of simple questions, participants were more likely to make errors when the sentences were spoken out loud, rather than written.A greater reliance on our feelings could be a problem if we are consuming information that needs logical study. For this reason. I will return to reading non-fiction with my eyes rather than my ears. But I won’t stop listening to novels. I am quite happy to go with the flow of my emotions while my critical mind takes a break.12. What does the author think of listening to audiobooks?A．It is economical. B．It is demanding.C．It is time-consuming. D．It is relaxing.13. Which of the following best describes System 2 model?A．Fairly reliable. B．Fully automatic.C．Question-centered. D．Emotion-involved.14. Why is the Ark mentioned in Paragraph 3?A．To present a fact. B．To illustrate a view.C．To introduce a topic. D．To draw a conclusion.15. What does the author intend to tell us?A．Listening to books comes at a price.B．Reading non-fiction books benefits.C．Critical thinking is a must in reading.D．Ways of processing information differ.Giving generously and receiving gratefully make it easier to live happily with others. 16Let me start with the idea of giving generously. 17 For example, my husband and I have family members who only contact us when they need money. We usually accept their requests, but we rarely receive a “thank you”. Most people would say that my husband and I are being used, and I suppose we are. But when we give, we shouldn’t be giving for the purpose of getting gratitude or praise. Rather, we should be giving because it is a good thing.The good news is that when we lead our life being nice to others, our life runs more smoothly. 18 But if you practice being generous, most of your relationships will improve.At the same time, we should remember to receive gr atefully. I truly believe that you cant say “thank you” enough when you receive.19 Parents can feel unappreciated by their children, and teachers can feel unappreciated by their students. Do you think it unnecessary to thank them when receiving just because a task is part of someone’s job description That’s wrong！20 It is good for us to say “thank you” because we regularly need to remind ourselves how lucky we are. And hearing those two words can make us feel great for days.If you are looking for a way to improve your life, I can give you one: Give generously and receive gratefully.When I was growing up, I had an old neighbour named Dr Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never _______ at us for playing in his yard. I remember him as someone who was a lot nicer than most of the adults in our community.When Dr Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees. His house sat on ten acres, and his life’s goal was to make it a _______.The good doctor had some _______ theories concerning plant care and growth. He never watered his new trees, which flew in the face of conventional(传统的) wisdom. Once I asked why. He said that watering plants _______ them so that each following tree generation would grow _______. So you have to make things _______ for them and weed out(淘汰) the weaker trees early on.He talked about how watering trees made for shallow roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots _______ water. I took him to mean that deep roots were to be _______.Dr Gibbs _______ a couple of years after I left home. Every now and again, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I’d watched him plant some twenty-five years ago. They’re extremely tall, big since they have deep ________ now. However, the trees in my garden ________ in a cold wind although I had watered them for several years.It seemed that adversity benefited these trees in ways ________ never could.

Her mother, who worked at the daycare center, was watching the children. Suddenly Jessica fell and disappeared. Jessica’s mother screamed and ran to her.A well was in the yard of the center. The well was only eight inches across and a rock always covered it. But children had moved the rock. When Jessica fell, she fell right into the well.Jessica’s mother reached inside the well, but she couldn’t feel Jessica. She dia led 911 for help. Men from the fire department arrived. They discovered that Jessica was about 20 feet down in the well. For the next hour the men talked and planned Jessica’s rescue.“We can’t go down into the well,”they said.“It’s too narrow. So, we’re going to drill a hole next to the well. Then we’ll drill a tunnel across to Jessica. When we reach her, we’ll bring her through the tunnel and up through our hole.”The men began to drill the hole at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, October 14, 1987. The men had a difficult job; they were drilling through solid rock. During her days in the well, Jessica sometimes asked for her mother. Sometimes she slept, sometimes she criedand sometimes she sang.All over the world, people waited for news of Jessica. Everyone worried about her.At 8 p.m. on Friday, October 16, men reached Jessica and brought her up from the well. She was soon sent to hospital. Jessica was dirty, hungry, thirsty and tired.

Using a computer or a pen and paper to record information, however, can be a burden and cause some people to give up.Duke University researchers said using text messages to track eating and exercisehabits can save time, and increase the chances that people will stick with their weight-loss rules.The study included 26 obese women with an average age of 38. The women used daily texting as part of their weight-loss program. The text messages focused on tracking personalized goals, such as avoiding sugary drinks or walking 10,000 steps a day. Messages also provided brief feedback (回复) and tips.Every morning, the women received a text from an automated(自动的)system that said, “Please text yesterday’s personal information of steps you walked and how many sugary drinks you had.” Based on the women's responses to the text message, the system sent another text with personalized feedback and tips.After six months, the women who used daily texting lost an average of nearly 3 pounds, while another group of women who used traditional methods to keep food and exercise diaries gained an average of 2.5 pounds, according to the study, which was published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research.“Text messaging has become popular and may be an effective method to simplify tracking of diet and exercis e behavior,” Dori Steinberg, who was responsible for this research, said.Steinberg said, "Text messaging offers several advantages compared to other self-monitoring methods. Unlike web-based diet and exercise diaries, data in a text message can be entered quickly on nearly all cellphone platforms so it is very convenient to receive feedback. Besides, because of the limited number of words used in text messages, it saves time.”28. According to the study, traditional methods _________.A. are easier for people to lose weightB. may cause people to give up losing weightC. provide brief feedback and tipsD. are easy to track diet and exercise behavior29. Which is NOT true about text messaging according to Steinberg?A. It saves time.B. It saves money.C. It can be entered quickly.D. It is easy to receive feedback.30. What’s the best title for the text?A. Texting helps keep healthyB. Texting saves time and moneyC. Texting can help you lose weightD. Texting provides brief feedback and tips31. What’s Dori Steinberg’s attitude towards text messaging?A. Unknown.B. Negative.C. Positive.D. Unconcerned.4.（8分）DThe kids in this village wear dirty, ragged clothes. They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud. They have no school. Yet they all can chant the English alphabet, and some can make words.The key to their success: 20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S. group called One Laptop Per Child.The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing(分析) the project data say they’re already amazed. “What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,” said Matt Keller, who runs the Ethiopia program.The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse.The device’s camera was disabled to save memory, yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work. He called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.With his tablet, Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows. Then he spelled words on his own. “Seven months ago he didn’t know any English. That’s unbelievable,” said Keller.The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,” where they can read to learn. It won’t be in Amharic, Ethiopia’s first language, but in English, which iswidely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.32. How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?A. It trains teachers for them.B. It contributes to their self-study.C. It helps raise their living standards.D. It provides money for building schools.33. What can we infer from Keller’s words in Paragraph 3?A. They need more time to analyze data.B. More children are needed for the research.C. He is confident about the future of the project.D. The research should be carried out in kindergartens.34. It amazed Keller that with the tablet Kelbesa could _______.A. learn English words quickly.B. draw pictures of animals.C. write letters to researchers.D. make phone calls to his friends.35. What is the aim of the project?A. To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.B. To make Amharic widely used in the world.C. To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.D. To help Ethiopians in learning their first language.二、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分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。
高一第三次月考(英语)试题含答案
高一第三次月考（英语）（考试总分：120 分）一、阅读理解（本题共计4小题，总分30分）1.（6分）APeople living in the UK take quite a few holidays abroad and in this country each year. Choices made about where to go, how to get there and what to do while there can either benefit or harm the environment.While on holidayMany of the things you can do to be greener on holiday will be the same things you can do at home—but there are also extra things too, like avoiding gifts made from endangered plants and animals. Here are some suggestions:●Making the most of locally produced food and drink, and local activities and attractions will support people in the area you are visiting and reduce the need for further environmental influence from transport;●Switching off any air conditioning, heating and lights will help reduce climate change effect;●Save water—some countries suffer from water shortages and saving water can help avoid damage to our natural habitats（栖息地).Endangered species（物种）Some gifts and foods available in some countries can be made from endangered plants or animals. Check before you buy, but if you doubt, avoid animal and plant gifts. More details of the types of products to avoid and illegal trade hot-spots can be found on the Souvenir Alert web-page.Making a positive contribution to the place you are visitingThere are ways in which your holiday can help support local people and the environment;●There are many opportunities to volunteer and help with projects that conserve and improve natural habitats;●When you are away, or if you are looking for somewhere to visit, you can support projects or attractions which protect wildlife, such as nature reserves and conservation projects.1.According to the passage, we can ____ to help reduce climate change effect.A. make good use of waterB. buy local food and drinkC. save electricityD. go around on foot2.We can infer from the passage that ____.A. it is not easy for people to travel abroadB. not everyone can tell an illegal souvenirC. green holidays have been accepted by peopleD. volunteer work is a must for protecting natural habitats3.The passage is mainly about _________A. travel dos and don’tsB. the harm done to the environmentC. greener choices for holidayD.tips on protecting endangered species2.（8分）BSome 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 forever 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.4.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. TV programs are a main 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 oneself5.What does the sentences “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.6.Which of the following is true according to 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.7.What is the author’s attitude towards books?A. indifferentB. objectiveC. doubtfulD. supportive3.（8分）CGlobal GDP in 2030 will be 14% higher as a result of AI(Artificial Intelligence), thanks to improving labor productivity and increasing consumer demand, says a report.The report could increase the enthusiasm of economic policymakers and the public, and show the power of technology in changing not only people’s daily lives, but also economic activities. However, history tells us that, while technological advancements have brought us benefits, they have also led to great social disorders, by changing the production and labor structures, and forcing many workers to either adapt to the changes or lose their jobs. In the 18th century, for instance, skilled workers rose up to resist the Industrial Revolution, destroying machinery in the early 19th century. We may not see similar protests today, but history should serve as a warning against the application of AI technology.In their 2013 research study, Michael Osborne and Carl Frey from Oxford University estimated 47% of the jobs in the United States are “at risk” of being automated in the next 20 years. They said jobs in transportation and office and administrative support are at high risk of being automated. And Kaifu Lee recently said that robots could take away about 50% of all jobs from humans in the next decade.Those estimates may sound sensational but the impact of technological advancements may not be that serious, as they will also create jobs in new industries. However, policymakers should consider how to better accept the technological wave to bring benefits while taking action to minimize its negative effects. The government therefore needs to work together with business leaders and social organizations to promote training programs for potentially helpless workers, in order to make them more capable of adapting to the structural changes in industries and job markets in the future.8.Paragraph 2 mainly wants to tell us that technological advancements have ________.A. brought us a lot of benefitsB. improved our daily livesC. led to great unemploymentD. caused some social problems9.We can learn from the passage that ________.A. the government should discover people’s potentialsB. technology workers are more likely to survive AI technologyC. we should take action to meet the challenge of the AI technologyD. most workers are willing to accept the changes brought by AI technology10.The underlined word “sensational” in the last p aragraph probably means______.A. shockingB. powerfulC. inspiringD. wonderful11.The passage is intended to ________.A. warn us against the negative effects of AI technologyB. present the good and bad effects of AI technologyC. inform us of the rapid development of AI technologyD.arouse people’s enthusiasm for AI technology4.（8分）DIdeas about polite behavior are different from one culture to another. Some societies, such as America and Australia, for example, are mobile and very open. People here change jobs and move houses quite often. As a result, they have a lot of relationships that often last only a short time, and they need to get to know people quickly. So it’s normal to have friendly conversations with people that they have just met, and you can talk about things that other cultures would regard as personal.On the other hand, there are more crowded and less mobile societies where long-term relationships are more important. A Malaysian or Mexican business person, for example, will want to get to know you very well before he or she feels happy to start business.But when you do get to know each other, the relationship becomes much deeper than it would in a mobile society.To Americans, both Europeans and Asians seem cool and formal at first. On the other hand, as a passenger from a less mobile society puts it, it’s no fun spending several hours next to a stranger who wants to tell you all about his or her life and asks you all sorts of questions that you don’t want to answer.Cross-cultural differences aren’t just a problem for travelers, but also for the flights that carry them. All flights want to provide the best service, but ideas about good service are different from place to place. This can be seen most clearly in the way that problems are dealt with.Some societies have universalist cultures.These societies strongly respect rules, and they treat every person and situation in basically the same way. Particularist societies, on the other hand, also have rules, but they are less important than the sociey’s unwritten ideas about what is right or wrong for a particular situation or a particular person. So the normal rules are changed to fit the needs of the situation or the importance of the person.12.Often moving from one place to another makes people like Americans and Australians______ .A. like traveling betterB. easy to communicate withC. difficult to make real friendsD. have a long-term relationship with their neighbors13.People like Malaysians prefer to associate with those _______.A. who will tell them everything of their ownB. who want to do business with themC. they know quite wellD. who are good at talking14.A person from a less mobile society will feel it ______ when a stranger keeps talking to himor her and asking him or her questions.A. boringB. friendlyC. normalD. rough15.Which of the following is true about "particularist societies"? ______A. There is no rule for people to obey.B. People obey the society's rules completely.C. No one obeys the society's rules though they have.D. The society's rules can be changed with different persons or situations.二、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）5.（10分）What Teenagers Can Do To Earn More RespectAs teenagers continue to grow and develop into young adults, the transition (过渡) into adulthood has begun.With so many physical and emotional changes going on, certain manners are often forgotten and other adult traits (特点) are not yet accepted as a way of life. 16 By doing the following things, you will earn more respect.Contribute to the householdAt the very least, clean up after yourself. As a teenager, you are old enough to clean up after yourself. When you make a mess, clean it up. 17 All chores that you do help to reduce the load of the person who did them before. Now that you’re old enough and capable, why shouldn’t you contribute to the household? 18Be responsible19 Whether they are basic things, like brushing your teeth or doing your homework, or more involved chores that contribute to the household, simply fulfill your responsibilities on time. When adults know that they can rely on you, their trust and respect for you will increase.Solve more of your own problem without asking for helpInstead of taking the easy approach and asking for help, make an effort to solve your problems on your own first. The "easy way" is only easy for you, but it is an extra task for the person from whom you are seeking help. Seek help only after you have make an honest effort to solve your own problems. 20 When you become a good problem solver, you increase your value to the community.A. Everyone has certain responsibilities.B. By being aware of these manners and traits, you can manage them sooner.C. The people doing the chores before will greatly appreciate the help.D. This includes,but is not limited to, your dishes and your room.E. It will make your life more pleasant.F. Depending on the problem, 15 minutes of effort is usually a good guideline.G. When speaking to a group, speak loud enough.三、完形填空（本题共计1小题，总分30分）6.（30分）In the early 1800’s, a boy named John lived in an orphanage (孤儿院) with several other children.

Reflection四．阅读理解（共16小题；每小题1.5分，共24分）AI‘m lying on my back in my grandfather‘s orchard（果园）,looking up at the branches above me. It is one of the last days of summer. Already the days are shorter and the nights are cooler. Some kinds of apples are already ripe（成熟的）. Others will be ready to pick soon. I think of my grandmother‘s apple pie(苹果馅饼), and how I used to make it with her. She died last year, before the apple harvest, and I have not had her pie since. I really miss her. I hear bees busily humming about, visiting the late summer flowers. The gentle hum of their wings nearly sends me to sleep.The sky is as blue as my grandfather‘s eyes. Above me, big white clouds race across the sky like pieces of cotton blowing in the wind. School starts in another week, and time seems to have slowed down.―Sophie!‖ calls my grandfather. ―Is that you?‖ I stand up, take his hand, and tell him all about my day as we walk through the orchard. We talk about apples, and bees, and Grandma. He tells me that he misses her too.He puts h is rough, brown farmer‘s hand around my shoulder and pulls me close. ―You know, Sophie,‖ he says, ― I spent the morning in the attic（阁楼）, and you‘ll never guess what I found. It‘s the recipe（烹饪法）for Grandma‘s apple pie. I used to help her make it sometimes. I can‘t do it all alone, but you used to help her too. Maybe between the two of us, we can work it out. Want to try?‖― But it won‘t be the same without Grandma,‖ I tell him.― That‘s true,‖ he says, ― but nothing is the same without Grandma. Still, I do n‘t think that she would want us never to have another apple pie. What do you say?‖ I nod yes, and we walk towards home… towards an afternoon in the farmhouse kitchen, making Grandma‘s famous apple pie.61、We learn from the passage that Sophie .A. likes to watch clouds in the atticB. comes to the orchard after schoolC. enjoys Grandma‘s apple pie very muchD. picks many apples in the orchard62、Both Sophie and her grandfather used to .A. help Grandma make apple piesB. spend summer afternoons in the orchardC. enjoy fresh fruit in the farmhouse kitchenD. walk alone among the apple trees63、The underlined part in the last paragraph shows .A. how mu ch Sophie‘s grandmother loved SophieB. how much Sophie‘s grandfather likes apple piesC. how much Sophie loves her grandfather‘s orchardD. how much Sophie‘s grandfather misses Grandma64、Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?.A. My grandfather‘s orchardB. My grandmother‘s apple pieC. A morning in the atticD. The last days of summerBHow would you like to learn more without having to study more? Here ‗s how:1.Get to bed and go to sleep. Your performance, attention, and the ability to concentrate are damaged by lack of sleep. Teenagers need nine to ten hours of sleep a night for best performance.2.Feed your head.The brain runs badly if it doesn‘t get enough fuel. That means protein(蛋白质) and complex carbs(复合碳水化合物)—eggs and wheat bread for breakfast, say, rather than sugary cereal(含糖的麦芽粥) and orange juice. The biggest mistake teens make is not to have breakfast or to go for sugar, which raisesblood sugar levels.3.Body exercise is brain exercise. Body exercise really improves brain performance, perhaps because it increases blood flow, or perhaps because it reduces stress and anxiety(焦虑). Twenty minutes of activity a day that raises your heart rate will do great good.4.Learn now what you want to remember for the rest of your life. Teenage brains are much better at remembering things than the brains of young children or adults. Scientists aren‘t sure why. Whatever the reason, the teenage years are the time to learn new languages and master other lifelong skills.5.Learn the power of risk-taking. Adults are always worried about the downside of teenage risk-taking, and it‘s true that teenagers are more likely than adults to get themselves in trouble by drinking and driving. But the fact that the parts of the brain that drive people to try new, risky, and exciting things appear to be more developed in teenagers can be a huge advantage. Pick certain challenges—difficult sports, a hard job, mastering a performance art, traveling overseas—and the teenage brain is able to deal with them. They have this power they‘re given to go out abf do it without fear.6.Learn what you love. Because emotional(情感的) systems develop fast in teenager brains, teenagers learn things they‘re interested in quickly and well. Their brain give them tools like attention on the project.65. According to the passage, teenagers should have ____ for breakfast.A. sugar and breadB. sugar and orange juiceC. wheat bread and eggsD. wheat bread and orange juice66. Body exercise plays a part in all the following EXCEPT______.A. reducing blood pressureB. raising heart rateC. making people less anxiousD. reducing stress67.The underline word ‖downside‖ in the passage probably means_____.A. excitementB. powerC.benefitD. disadvantage68.It can be learned from the passage that_______.A. teenagers need less sleep than adultsB. teenagers should be forbidden to driveC. scientists know why teenagers have a good memoryD. teenagers learn quickly when they are fond of somethingC.The U.S.Postal Service delivers mail through rain and snow. But people who look forward to receiving mail on Saturdays may soon be disappointed. In order to cut costs,Postmaster General John Potter has suggested reducing mail delivery by one day per week.From 2008 to 2009,the amount of mail in the United States ropped by nearly 26billion pieces. The main reasons for the decline(下降)have nothing to do with bad weather or barking dogs. In the Internet age,many people are choosing e-mail over wrting letters. They are paying bills online instead of mailing checks(支票).The weak economy and serious competition from private carriers,such as FedEX and UPS,have also led to the decline. As a result,the Postal Service lost$3.8billion last year. On March2,Potter delivered more bad news:Without major changges,the Postal Service may lose $238billion over the next 10years.Not everyone is for the idea.‖Saturday is an important delivery day,‖ Jason Chaffetz told Th e Washingtoon post.Instead of cutting Saturday service, Chaffetz suggests creating postal ―holidays‖on the slowest delivery days each year. He says that cutting Saturday service will delay(推迟)important deliveries,such as medicines,.and people without computers don‘t have the choive of paying bills online.Supporters of the plan say it is a difficult but important step. The Postal Service projects that cutting one day of deliveries per week could save $3.5billion per year. Many Americans are behind the new postal plan. In a 2009 Gallup Poll,66 percent of people surveyed said they were for reduciing delivery from six days to five to help the Postal Service balance its budget(开支). Some supporters say getting used to a new delivery schedule would not be a problem for most people. They also say that people who need Saturday delivery could use private carriers.69.the amount of mail in the Usdeclined fromm 2008 to 2009 because of all the following EXCEPT__A．bad weather B.hot competition C.the poor economy D.the development of the Internet70.Accordiing to the passage,Jason Chaffetz__ _A.has no computers at homeB.is complaining about slow delivery of the Postal ServiceC.is disappointed about cutting Saturday serviceD.insists the Postal Service deliver mail every day71.We can learn from the last paragraph that_ _A.reducing delivery from six days to five doesn‘t make much difference.B.few Americans are for the new postal plan of the Postal ServiceC.few people are willing to use pricate carriers in the USD.a lot of people are wishing the Postal Servicce a good future72.The passage mainly argues__ _A.the pros and cons of the Postal Service dropping Saturday deliveryB.whether the Postal Service can make profits this yearC.the differences between the Postal Service and private carriersD.the differences betweent paper wriring letters and e-mailDA sixth-grader settles down to do her homework on a weekday afternoon in 2008. Instead of at the kitchen table with piles of books, she‘s sitting on the bus with her laptop. She is on the Internet to take a math-skills teston the school home page and get her own personalized homework, downloads the software she‘ll need, looks for help from an online school librarian and e-mails the finished work to her teacher.Homework in the future may not be any less laborious, but it will certainly be more online. And as more children get the chance to use computers and the net – 79% of teens and 51% kids aged 2 to 12 are expected to be online by 2009 --- schools and technology companies are supposed to design special homework and high-tech homework help for parents and kids. On the menu: TAILOR-MADE HOMEWORK. The greatest change about homework will be that instead of everybody heading home with the same lesson, each student will sit down to their own homework. The school‘s central computer will include information on each student‘s progress and give out the special work.As computers become the homework tool of choice, educators worry about children who don‘t have chance to use the technology. ―The kids who don‘t have computers at home will be at such a basic disadvantage. It will be as if they didn‘t have a pen or paper.‖ Says Elliot‘ a professor at the University of Michigan. He‘s just finished a study in which Internet TVs were placed in the homes of a class of Detroit public-school students, and found it not only benefited the kids but attracted parents to join in as well.73. What‘s the advantage of future homework?A. Different students have different homeworks which are specially designed.B. Students can discuss the problems together easily.C. They can do their homework anywhere and anytime.D. Both A and C.74. Which of the following is true?A. The future homework is much easier.B. Students will spend more time online.C. All the students in a Detroit public-school have a computer at home.D. Parents will help their kids do their homework.75. We can infer that ________.A. tailors help design homework.B. not every student does the same homework.C. students can surely make great progress by doing such homeworkD. students who don‘t have computers can also finish their homework easily76. Which could be the best title for this passage?A. Homework in FutureB. Development of HomeworkC. ComputersD. How to Do Homework Well五．单词拼写：（每小题1分，共6分）77.
