That’s for sure.”But the award came as a surprise to many. On Oct 13, the famous US musician was named the Nobel laureate by the Swedish Academy. He has “created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition", according to the organization.Although Dylan, 75, is not really thought to be a literary(文学的)writer, he has given the world a lot of creative work over 50 years, especially when it comes to his folk songs.In his 1985 album Biograph, Dylan wrote about the appeal(魅力) of folk music to him. Rock songs “weren’t serious enough or didn’t reflect(反映)life in a realistic way", according to Dylan. But folk, was “a more serioustype of thing. The songs are filled with more sadness; more joy …much deeper feelings".Dyla n’s music and lyrics spoke to many people during the 1960s. His lyrics were often about great political issues, such as the civil rights movement. The 1960s were a time of change when the young were making sure that their voices were heard. The idea is mast famously expressed in Dylan's The Times They Are a -Changin (1964), which warns the world, “You better start swimming or you'll sink(下沉)like a stone. For the times they are a-changin!”There were complaints that a literary prize had been given to a singer. But ancient “Greek poets Homer and Sappho wrote poetic works that were meant to be listened to, that were meant to be performed, often with instruments - and it s the same way with Dylan ",the Swedish Academy’s permanent secretary Sara Danius told CNN.It could even be said that giving the important prize to Dylan has brought back an old literary tradition. The millions whose lives Dylan’s words and music have changed will surely welcome the award.21. Dylan found folk music attractive because___________•A. it brought joy to peopleB. it reflected life on a much deeper levelC. it could be used to express feelings freelyD. it needed more creativity than other types of music22. Which of the following statements is TRUE about Dylan according to the article?A. He never thought that he would win the Nobel Prize.B. All of his influential works were created in the 1960s.C .His songs expressed people’s feelings well during the 1960s.D. His fans were mostly young people who were active in political movements.23. According to the last two paragraphs, ______________.A .lyrics can be seen as a literary formB. a literary prize should not be given to a singerC. Dylan’s works were inspired by Greek poetsD .Dylan won the award because he influenced many song-writers24. What’s the author’s attitude toward giving Bob Dylan the 2016 Nobel Prize in literature?A. Unconcerned.B. Objective.C. Doubtful.D. Supportive.2.Books have tremendous power. Between their pages, readers can be transported to anywhere imaginable and become just about anyone or anything. Unfortunately, many children all over the world don’t have access to books.For several years now, Maria Keller, a 14-year-old girl from Minneapolis, Minnesota, has been changing that fact.When she was 8 years old, Maria already loved reading. She also noticed that some of her classmates didn’t read as much as she did. When she asked her mother why that could be, her mother said that they might not be able to afford books. Maria had never thought of this. She could not believe that some children might not have bedtime stories read to them. She became determined to change this.With her mother’s help, Maria created Read Indeed. Read Indeed is a non-profit organization aiming to collect and distribute(分发) books to children in need. During the early stages of Read Indeed, Maria set the goal to collect and distribute 1 million books by the time she was 18. It didn’t take long to reach that goal.Today, at age 14, she has collected over 1.8 million books and hasshipped them to many states and countries around the world. She says, “I cannot live without books. As I continue my mission, I have learned that the number of kids who have no books are in the hundreds of millions. So I just can’t give up, even after reaching my original goal of 1 million books distributed.”She recently set a new goal: to distribute donations to kids in need in every state in the United States, and every country in the world. She keeps track of her progress on a large map at the warehouse(仓库) where they store and sort books. Maria believes that she can get support from even more people and help kids around the world to become better readers!25. We can know from Paragraph 2 that .A. Some of Maria’s classmates had no textbooks.B. Some of Maria’s classmates didn’t have money to buy books.C. Some of Maria’s classmates didn’t like reading at all.D. Some of Maria’s classmates couldn’t afford to go to school.26. According to the passage, which statement about Read Indeed is true?A. It collects and gives out books to poor children.B. It is an organization which sells books to children around the world.C. It raises money to buy books for children.D. It is a campaign which encourages children to read.27. What can we infer from what Maria says in Paragraph 4?A. She lives on selling books.B. Her original dream has been achieved.C. She will give up her mission of distributing books.D. The number of children who have no books has greatly dropped.28. Which word can best describe Maria?A. Optimistic.B. Smart.C. Brave.D. Strong-willed.3.When we know somewhere well,w e say we “know it like the back of our hand”. But new research has shown that we don’t actually know as much about our hands as we think we do.Wider and shorterProfessor Matthew Longo at the University of London and his team did an experiment, covering the left hands of 100 people. Then they asked the people to point to where they thought their fingertips and knuckles (指关节)were. They made some quite big mistakes.“People think their hand is wider than it actually is,” said Longo. The fingers also seem shorter than they are. This mistake gets worse as you go across the hand from the thumb to the little finger.Sense of position"It is connected to our sense of position,” explained Longo. This is our ability to tell where different parts of o ur bodies are, even when we can’t see them. “It tells us whether a joint is straight .or not "he said. It also tells us whether we are going up or down in an elevator. All this information comes from signs from nerves in real time. It’s like our brain h as maps - maps that show the size and shape of our body. “This experiment tried to find those maps,” said Longo.Strength(强度) of feelingBut these maps make mistakes. These mistakes may be made because of how the brain understands different parts of t he skin. “Our brains ‘see” areas as larger where the skin feels touch strongly,” said Longo. Body parts don’t appear as their true size, but appear bigger or smaller depending on how strongly they feel touch. Our lips, for example, have more nerves than our nose. So brain “sees” lips on its map of the body as being bigger than our nose. The same thing happens for other parts of the body that have lotsof nerves.Longo believes that more research in this area may help us to understand eating problem better, because people suffering from these problems may not know their bodies properly.29. Which of following statement is TRUE about the experiment according to the article?A. People think their body parts are larger than they actually are.B. People made more mistakes about their little fingers length than their thumbs’ length.C .People’s fingers are actually shorter than they think.D. People were asked to draw their hands from memory30. What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. The new experiment.B. The location information.C. The mistake people made.D. The sizes of fingers and hands.31. We can learn from the article that_____________.A. the maps of people’s bodies form before they are bornB. the maps of our body are based on information from nervesC. our sense of position tells how different parts of the body work.D. how we feel about our body shape is only decided by our sense of position32. We can infer from the article that .A. the hand feels touch more strongly than fingers doB. our lips have a weaker sense of touch than our noseC. there are more nerves in the finger than in the handD. our sense of position should not be trusted because it is too often incorrect4.It’s an ordinary morning,like all the others.But instead of being woken up by the buzzing of an alarm cl ock, you’ll be roused by the smell of freshly made coffee,light entering your room as the curtains open automatically,and a gentle back massage(按摩)provided by your high-tech bed.This is what a typical(典型的) person's life will be like two decades from now,according to The Guardian. Want to know more?After you get up, your apartment will be like an electronic orchestra with you as the conductor. With simple moves of your hand and spoken instructions, you’ll be able to control your apartment’s tempera ture, humidity, music and lighting. You’ll be able to look through the day’s news on translucent screens while your breakfast waits for you in the automatic oven.As you move into your kitchen, you might accidentally hit your toe on a cupboard. If you do, you’ll grab your cell phone and open the diagnostics(诊断) app. Inside your phone there will be a tiny microchip(芯片) that uses X-ray waves to scan your body. The scan will tell whether your toe is bruised or broken.After breakfast, your driverless car will take you to work. While you “drive”, your central computer system will suggest a list of chores(家务事)that your housekeeping robots can do that day and it will also remind you to buy a gift for your mother’s upcoming birthday.As you can see, with the help of advanced technology, our lives will be more efficient(有效率的). Technology will mitigate our forgetfulness and free us of many small burdens that distract us, such as buying a ticket. Our brain will therefore be able to focus on more important things like preparing for a presentation or doing “deep thinking”.However, the development of technology might have some disadvantages as well. By 2036, we’ll be relying heavily on the virtual(虚拟的)world, which will mean that all of our data will be stored in the cloud,a remote digital storage system with near limitless capacity(容量). That will increase the possibility of someone else accessing, sharing or manipulating(操控) our personal information.33. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To stress the importance of developing technology.B. To remind people not to depend too much on computers.C. To introduce one new invention that will benefit our future lives.D. To describe how advanced technologies will affect our future lives.34. According to the text, in two decades, .A. you’ll be able to rely on an electronic orchestra to wake you up instead of an alarm clockB. a tiny microchip in your phone will treat you when you are sickC. you will be able to adjust the conditions of your apartment via oral instructions or simple hand gesturesD. technology will be smart enough to help us with important things like preparing for a presentation35. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in Paragraph 6 mean?A. Make up for.B. Worsen.C. Cure.D. Take advantage of.二、未分类(共2题)1.Have you ever heard of an insect called the cicada(蝉)? 36 But theyhave an interesting internal clock that tells them when to go aboveground.Every 17 years, billions of the noisy Brood V cicadas(十七年蝉) will swarm(成群出现)to northeastern parts of the US, including New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania. 37 But there are usually a lot less of them compared to the Brood V cicadas.38 According to Discovery News, these insects started their lives in 1999. And as their 17-year life cycle comes to an end, they go aboveground when their underground homes get warmer 64 degrees Fahrenheit (about 18℃) to be exact.Then the females will lay hundreds of eggs in trees, and after about four to six weeks, the mother and father cicadas will die. 39While they can be kind of annoying, these insects don’t harm humans, but they do make a lot of noise during their time aboveground. 40 However, since there are so many of the 17-year cicadas, the amount of laid eggs can sometimes harm small trees and bushes. But after this summer, these insects will mostly mind their own business until 2033.A. That sound is the male cicadas attracting the female cicadas.B. The cicada insects are common in summer, especially in August and can be found in July as well.C. There are other kinds of cicadas that come around once a year or every 13 years.D. The baby cicadas will go underground, and the 17-year cycle will start over again.E. As a matter of fact, people like to eat them in some cultures.F. Well, a special kind of these insects live underground in the US for most of their lives.G. This is what makes Brood V cicadas so special.2.Do you find it hard to memorize words? You must not be the only one. It could be 61 (help) if you say the words aloud. But th is often isn’t good in a quiet classroom.Now, researchers from the University of Waterloo, Canada, have comeup 62 a new idea. They suggest 63 (draw) a picture of what you are trying to memorize!The researchers did a study 64 (base) on the idea. They first gave a group of students some words such as “apple” or “balloon”. Then they gave the students 40 seconds, during 65 the students could either write the words again and again, or draw a picture.When the time 66 (be) over, the researchers asked the students to do something else, like sing a song. After that , they gave the students 60 seconds to write down as many words 67 they could remember. The results showed that those who drew the words did a much 68 (good) job than those who wrote them.So the next time you are having a hard time memorizing a word, 69 (draw) it! No worries if you’re not good at drawing. The 70 (research) say the quality of the drawing doesn’t matter at all.三、完型填空(共1题)1.My husband, Rashid, arrived in New York on his own from India.

He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.My earliest memories of my father are of a tall, handsome, su ccessful man devoted to his work and family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he w as. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to stru ggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor café. We walked along that af ternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laug hed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my fat her’s critical air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew a s my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be aro und? What had held him back before?The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and tol d me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although ou r times together became easier over the years, I never felt clo ser to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last se eing another side of my father.

I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved . I’ve slightly changed my mind afterseventeen years because I think it’s an ugly town now. Things have changed. For everybody, meant gentlemen, fair play, and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disap pearing.I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You ’re forced to live indoors. In I go out much more, to restaurant s and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman.

This past year has been one of the hardest f or me. I felt I was stuck in a position that had nothing to do with what I wanted to do with my life. In January, after two years of being together, my boyfriend left me.I read your blog every morning as I drink my coffee at work, but it wasn't until this March that I told myself "no more negati vity" as you taught readers in your blog.Since then I've got into new habits at work to keep my ener gy positive. When people walk in the front door, I'm the first fa ce they see, so I smile big when I say "good morning" to them , especially on Mondays. Instead of waiting for someone to as k me for help, I offer it with an open mind. The CEO noticed m y change and offered me the executive assistant position that I wanted.One of the biggestthings I've taken to heart from your blog is changing my opini ons on my job. Yes, it was not an important position, but when I was passionate (热情的) about it, I could make my life fulfilling.All in all, I have to thank you somehow for having the passi on to help others because it truly is inspiring to me. So thank you so much, John. My life has changed because your words pointed me in the right direction, Take care!Sincerely ,Amber24. Amber wrote the letter mainly to______A. introduce herself to JohnB. talk about her bad yearC. ask for some adviceD. express her thanks25. We can infer from the passage that Amber______A. didn't like her boyfriendB. spent a lot of time onlineC. wasn't satisfied with her jobD. received very good e ducation26. What is implied about John in the letter?A. He is a very famous writer.B. He used to live a very negative life.C. He doesn't like sharing his life stories.D. He likes helping others through writing positive blogs.27. What does Amber's change tell us?A. Practice makes perfect.B. Bad luck doesn't exist lo ng.C. A positive attitude is rewarding.D. A friend in need is a f riend indeed.CThe African elephant, the largest land animal remaining on ea rth , is of great importance to African ecosystem(生态系统). Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great ex tent the builder of its environment. As a big plant-eater, it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原)surroundings in which it lives, therefore setting the terms ofexistence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat(栖息地).It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturb er of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. I n its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must h ave every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part ofthe African savannas. In these open spaces are numerous pla nts in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other pl ant-eaters.Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the sp reading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants make open spaces, allowing new pla nts to grow on the forest floor. In such situations, the forests b ecome suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well.What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has b ecome an endangered species. If the elephant disappears, sc ientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vastareas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.28. What is the passage mainly about?A. Disappearance of African elephants.B. Forests and savannas as habitats for African elephants.C. The effect of African elephants' search for food.D. The eating habit of African elephants.29. What does the underlined phrase “setting the terms” most probably mean?A. Fixing the time.B. Worsening the st ate.C. Improving the quality.D. Deciding the co nditions.30. What do we know about the open spaces in the passage?A. They result from the destruction of rain forests.B. They provide food mainly for African elephants.C. They are home to many endangered animals.D. They are attractive to plant-eating animals of different kinds.31. The passage is developed mainly by________.A. showing the effect and then explaining the causesB. pointing out similarities and differencesC. describing the changes in space orderD. giving examplesDExperiments under way in several labs aim to create beneficia l types of genetically modified foods, including starchier potato es and caffeine-free coffee beans. Genetic engineers are even trying to transf er genes from a cold-winter fish to make a frost-resistant tomato.A low-sugar GM strawberry now in the works might one day allow p eople with health problems such as diabetes (糖尿病) to enjoy the little delicious red fruits again. GM beans and grains rich in protein(蛋白质) might help people at risk of developing kwashiorkor. Kwas hiorkor, a disease caused by severe lack of protein, is commo n in parts of the world where there are severe food shortages. Commenting on GM foods, Jonathon Jones, a British researc her, said: "The future benefits will be enormous(巨大的), and the best is yet to come". To some people, GM foodsare no different from unmodified foods. "A tomato is a tomato ," said Brian Sansoni, an American food manufacturer.Critics of GM foods challenge Sansoni's opinion. They worry a bout the harm that GM crops might do to people, other animal s, and plants.In a recent lab study conducted at Cornell University, scientist s tested pollen(花粉) made by BT corn, which makes up one-fourth of the U.S. corn crop. The scientist dropped the pollen onto milkweed, a plant that is the only known food source of a butterfly caterpillar(毛虫). Within four days of feeding on the leaves, almost half of a test group of caterpillars died. "This is a warning bell." said C ornell researcher Linda Raynor.Some insects that are not killed by GM foods might find thems elves made stronger. How so? The insecticides are used on t he crops to kill the pests. But GM plants produce a continuous level of insecticide. Insects relying on those crops may devel op resistance to the plants and they may also develop a resist ance to the insecticide.At the forum on GM food held last year in Canada. GM crops t hat have been made resistant to the herbicide might crossbre ed with wild plants, creating "superweeds" that could take ove r whole fields.So where do you stand? Should GM food be banned in the U nited States, as they are in parts of Europe? Or do their benef its outweigh(胜过) any of the risks they might carry?32. The first three paragraphs try to give the idea that_______ ___A. GM foods may bring about great benefits to humans.B. GM foods are no different from ordinary ones.C. GM foods may have both benefits and harm.D. GM foods are particularly good to the kwashiorkor patients.33. Why is the pollen-sprayed milkweed mentioned in Paragraph 5?A. To show GM foods can kill insects effectively.B. To show GM foods contain more protein.C. To show GM foods also have a dark side.D. To show GM foods may harm crops.34. What happens to those insects when not killed by the spra y of insecticide?A. They may lose their ability to produce lay eggs.B. They may have a higher ability to adapt to the environment .C. They move to other fields free from insecticide.D. They never eat again those plants containing insecticide.35. Which of the following statements concerning banning GM foods is true according to the passage?A. Underdeveloped countries have banned GM foods.B. Both Europe and the U.S. have banned GM foods.C. Most European countries have not banned GM foods.D. The United States has not banned GM foods.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。

2016-2017学年高二(上)期末英语试卷带答案
2016-2017学年高二(上)期末英语试卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)1.(8分)In Sweden,near a forest there is a lake in which the water is very clear.Everything here is quiet and still.On the far side of the water is some farmland and further away,across the field,is an old church built on a hill.It has just stopped raining.The brook flowing into the lake is full and there is still some half melted snow from last winter on the ground.The reason the water is so clear,and everything is so quiet and still,is that most of the plant and animal life in and around the lake is dead.There are no birds because all the fish and insects,which the birds need for food,have disappeared.Many trees in the forest are losing their leaves and bark,and are sick and dying.Others were blown down by the high winds of last winter.A farmer is working in a field planting something,but unless he plants a stronger kind of seed this year,the crop will be between 25to 40per cent lower than a few years ago.The stones of the old church tower are turning to powder and unless the tower is repaired soon,it will fall down.All the death and destruction in this place is caused by the smoke coming out of factories and poisonous gases from cars and trucks.And yet this silent lake is hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest factory and highway.1.What time of the year do you think it is?A.SpringB.SummerC.AutumnD.Winter2.Why are there no animals or birds in or around the lake?A.The weather is terribly cold.B.The lake is quiet.C.The area is polluted.D.They have all been killed.3.What can we know from the second paragraph?A.The soil becomes less and less because the wind is strong.B.The water in the lake is not polluted because it is clear.C.The trees are dying because the soil is dry.D.Few plants can grow because of the pollution.4.What do you think is the best title of the passage?A.A Beautiful Place of Interest.B.A Polluted Place in Sweden.C.A Quiet Place in Sweden.D.A Faraway Mountain Area.5.(8分)Helene An always told her five daughters that there was strength in unity (团结)when they were young.To show this,she held up one chopstick,representing one person.Then she easily broke it into two pieces.Next,she tied several chopsticks together,representing a family.She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks.This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California.However,when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975,they didn't have much money.They moved their family to San Francisco.There they joined Danny's mother,Diana,who owned a small Italian sandwich shop.Soon afterwards,Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant.The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young.However,Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves,but one by one,the daughters returned to work in the family business.They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles.Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other,they worked togetherto make the business successful.Daughter Elisabeth explains,"Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity,and to have unity we must have peace.Without the strength of the family,there is no business."Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996,with three generations of Ans working together.Now the Ans'corporation makes more than $20 million each year.Although they began with a small restaurant,they had big dreams,and they worked together.Now they are a big success.5.Helene tied several chopsticks together to show.A.the difficulty of growing upB.the strength of family unityC.the advantage of chopsticksD.the best way of giving a lesson6.We can I earn from Paragraph 2 that the An family.A.started a business in 1975B.bought a restaurant in San FranciscoC.left Vietnam without much moneyD.opened a sandwich shop in Los Angeles7.What can we infer about the An daughters?A.They did not finish their college education.B.They could not bear to work in the family business.C.They were troubled by disagreement among family members.D.They were influenced by what Helene taught them.8.What is the secret of Ans'big success?A.Family unityB.Hard workingC.IntelligenceD.Having a large family.9.(8分)We've all been blamed wrongly sometimes in our lives.How do we dealwith it?Not with anger,hurt and tears,but in a collected way…◇If you are wrongly blamed,let others know of the true state of things at once.Do it calmly and clearly﹣if you lose your temper,people will stop listening or become defensive.◇If you don't find a sympathetic ear,find a person who will hear you out﹣a teacher,a parent,a friend,or a brother or sister who believes in you.◇If you've been in trouble before,it may be easy for people to doubt you.So win your respect back in their eyes by behaving with honesty.◇If what you are blamed for is something unimportant,sometimes it's better to smile it off.◇If you've been blamed for something serious,it's important to put your side of the story forward quickly and truthfully.Just remember:◇Respect your friends'secret if you don't want to be wrongly blamed

stories about animals taking the teeth.For example,Koreans have the custom of throwing the fallen tooth onto the roof of a house so that a magpie (喜鹊)can take the tooth away and bring a new tooth for the child.This custom is also followed by some other Asian countries,such as Japan and Vietnam.Other countries,though,have tooth customs about other animals.In Mexico and Spain,for example,it is thought that a mouse takes a fallen tooth away and leaves some money.But in Mongolia,it is dogs that take children's teeth away.Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture.It is believed that the new tooth will grow strong if the baby tooth is fed to a dog,so parents in Mongolia will put their children's fallen teeth in a piece of meat and feed it to a dog.In France and the USA,a child will put a fallen tooth under his or her pillow before going to bed.It is thought that in the early morning,when the child is still sleeping,the Tooth Fairy will take the tooth away and leave something else under the pillow.What she will leave is hard to know.It is said that in France the Tooth Fairy may leave some candies;however,in the United States,she may leave money.13.Koreans throw a tooth

clear.Everything here is quiet and still.On the far side of the water is some farmland and further away,across the field,is an old church built on a hill.It has just stopped raining.The brook flowing into the lake is full and there is still some half melted snow from last winter on the ground.The reason the water is so clear,and everything is so quiet and still,is that most of the plant and animal life in and around the lake is dead.There are no birds because all the fish and insects,which the birds need for food,have disappeared.Many trees in the forest are losing their leaves and bark,and are sick and dying.Others were blown down by the high winds of last winter.A farmer is working in a field planting something,but unless he plants a stronger kind of seed this year,the crop will be between 25to 40per cent lower than a few years ago.The stones of the old church tower are turning to powder and unless the tower is repaired soon,it will fall down.All the death and destruction in this place is caused by the smoke coming out of factories and poisonous gases from cars and trucks.And yet this silent lake is hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest factory and highway.1.What time of the year do you think it is?AA.SpringB.SummerC.AutumnD.Winter2.Why are there no animals or birds in or around the lake?CA.The weather is terribly cold.B.The lake is quiet.C.The area is polluted.D.They have all been killed.3.What can we know from the second paragraph?DA.The soil becomes less and less because the wind is strong.B.The water in the lake is not polluted because it is clear.C.The trees are dying because the soil is dry.D.Few plants can grow because of the pollution.4.What do you think is the best title of the passage?BA.A Beautiful Place of Interest.B.A Polluted Place in Sweden.C.A Quiet Place in Sweden.D.A Faraway Mountain Area.【分析】本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了一个瑞典的被污染的地方,湖上或周围没有动物或鸟,植物也难以生长,呼吁人们保护环境.【解答】1.A.推理判断题.根据第一段The brook flowing into the lake is full and there is still some half melted snow from last winter on the ground可知这是春天;故选A.2.C.细节理解题.根据第三段All the death and destruction in this place is caused by the smoke coming out of factories and poisonous gases from cars

lower than a few years ago可知由于污染,很少有植物能在这里生长;故选D.4.B.推理判断题.根据第三段All the death and destruction in this place is caused by the smoke coming out of factories and poisonous gases from cars and

unity (团结)when they were young.To show this,she held up one chopstick,representing one person.Then she easily broke it into two pieces.Next,she tied several chopsticks together,representing a family.She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks.This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California.However,when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975,they didn't have much money.They moved their family to San Francisco.There they joined Danny's mother,Diana,who owned a small Italian sandwich shop.Soon afterwards,Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant.The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young.However,Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves,but one by one,the daughters returned to work in the family business.They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles.Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other,they worked together to make the business successful.Daughter Elisabeth explains,"Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity,and to have unity we must have peace.Without the strength of the family,there is no business."Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996,with three generations of Ans working together.Now the Ans'corporation makes more than $20 million each year.Although they began with a small restaurant,they had big dreams,and they worked together.Now they are a big success.5.Helene tied several chopsticks together to show B.A.the difficulty of growing upB.the strength of family unityC.the advantage of chopsticksD.the best way of giving a lesson6.We can I earn from Paragraph 2 that the An family C.A.started a business in

Ans'big success?AA.Family unityB.Hard workingC.IntelligenceD.Having a large family.【分析】本文是一篇人物故事类阅读,属于记叙文,主要讲述了"一根筷子易折断,一捆筷子抱成团",这就是团结的力量.来自越南的An家族正是靠着团结一心,在美国成就了一番大事业.【解答】5.答案:B.细节理解题.由文章第一段中的"she tied several chopsticks together,representing a family.She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks"可知,绑在一起的筷子显示了家庭团结的力量.故选B.6.答案:C.细节理解题.根据文章第二段中的"when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975,they didn't have much money"可知,一家人离开越南时,没有多少钱.故选C.7.答案:D.推理判断题.A项与文中事实"the girls all graduated from college"不符;B项"孩子们不能忍受在家族企业中工作"与她们都在为家族企业工作的事实不符.C项"她们被家庭成员间的分歧所困",而文中事实是"Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other,they worked together to make the business successful".D项"他们被海伦所教的影响"由文中的"Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity"推理可知.故选D.8.答案:A.细节理解题.由第一段中绑在一起的筷子预示着家庭团结的力量开始一直到最后一段,文章都在讲述一个主题﹣﹣家庭的团结造就了成功.故选A.【点评】本文是一篇人物故事类阅读,题目涉及多道细节理解题,推理判断题.做题时学生应仔细阅读原文,把握文章主要内容,联系文章上下文内容并结合所给选项含义,从中选出正确答案,一定要做到有理有据,切忌胡乱猜测.9.(8分)We've all been blamed wrongly sometimes in our lives.How do we deal with it?Not with anger,hurt and tears,but in a collected way…◇If you are wrongly blamed,let others know of the true state of things at once.Do it calmly and clearly﹣if you lose your temper,people will stop listening or become defensive.◇If you don't find a sympathetic ear,find a person who will hear you out﹣a teacher,a parent,a friend,or a brother or sister who believes in you.◇If you've been in trouble before,it may be easy for people to doubt you.So win your respect back in their eyes by behaving with honesty.◇If what you are blamed for is something unimportant,sometimes it's better to smile it off.◇If you've been blamed for something serious,it's important to put your side of the story forward quickly and truthfully.Just remember:◇Respect your friends'secret if you don't want to be wrongly blamed for making them known.◇Don't blame others without first getting proof of their wrong doing.◇Putting the blame on someone else for what you have done wrong isweakness.Admit your mistake quickly.◇If someone else is wrongly blamed,stand up for that person.◇Don't pass the responsibility to others9.The

who will hear you out﹣a teacher,a parent,a friend,or a brother or sister who believes in you.可知,当你被误解时,找一个愿意听事情真相的并且相信你的人,如父母、兄弟姐妹,所以a sympathetic ear指愿意听真相的人,故答案为B.11.A 细节题.从文章If you've been blamed for something serious,it's important to put your side of the story forward quickly and truthfully得知,当一些重要的事情你被误解时,要立即并且诚恳地向他人解释,故答案为A.12.C 细节推理.根据最后建议Don't pass the responsibility to others以及Admit

countries.【分析】本文是一篇说明文.本文主要讲述了小孩子掉落的牙怎么处理?有些国家扔在屋顶上,有些国家放在枕头下,不同的国家都有着不同的风俗.【解答】答案:BDC.13:B.细节理解题.根据Koreans have the custom of throwing the fallen tooth onto the roof of a house so that a magpie (喜鹊)can take the tooth away and bring a new tooth for the child.可知,韩国人把掉落的牙齿扔在屋顶上,这样喜鹊就能把牙齿衔走,然后带给孩子一颗新牙,故B选项正确.14:D.推理判断题.根据In France and the USA,a child will put a fallen tooth under his or her pillow 可知A错误,根据It is thought that in the early morning,when the child is still sleeping,the Tooth Fairy will take the tooth away可知B错误,根据It is said that in France the Tooth Fairy may leave some candies;however,in the United States,she may leave money可知在法国,牙齿仙女会留下糖果,在美国会留下钱,故C错误.所以,D选项"没人确定牙齿仙女会留下什么"这个答案符合题意.故D选项正确.15:C.主旨大意题.纵观全文以及根据第一段可知,这篇文章主要讲了不同国家对于脱落牙齿处理的不同风俗.故C选项正确.【点评】阅读理解考查对文章的理解能力.学生应先通读全文,看清题干你,仔细阅读选项,在文章找到正确答案.16.(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.选项中有两项为多余选项.Reading

I stopped at a gas station(加油站) about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I s hould do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend's. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon, I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership —a shop selling cars —was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom."Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?" I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said."Thank you" — two powerful words. They're easy to say and mean so much.28.The author planned to stop at Oklahoma City ________.A. to visit a friendB. to see his parentsC. to pay at the cash registerD. to have more gas for his car29.What happened when the author found smoke coming out of his car?A.

Editor Pete Muir said the survey had looked at a variety of factors(因素) from gym membership to heart disease rates to find the fattest city. “Manchester has more fast food restaurants than anywhere else in the UK,” he told Reuters. “People are taking the easy choice —eating and then just sitting in front of the TV.”Manc hester’s problem is part of a wider trend(趋势). On Thursday, the Office of National Statistics (ONS) blamed(责备) a lack of exercise and poor diet for a fifth of adult Britons being obese(过度肥胖的). “Obesity is a major risky factor related to heart disease, diabetes and premature death(糖尿病和早亡),” said an ONS survey. “None of the 108 young men in the survey reported eating five portions of fruit or vegetables on average each day.”In Manchester, the head of the city’s public health programs said he did not believe that they were necessar ily the fattest city, b ut that they did have problems and were aiming to address them. Social deprivation(贫困) was a major factor. “One of the myths is that the stressed-out(压力大的) rich businessman is the one who is overweight,” David Regan told Reuters. “In fact, it is the poor areas that have the most problems. We aim not to be the fattest but the fittest city but we have a long way to go.”Second in the survey is Stoke-on-Trent, followed by Liverpool, Swansea and Leicester. Glasgow is sixth.32. Manchester took the place of ____________ and became Britain’s fattest city.A. LiverpoolB. LondonC. Stoke-on-TrentD. Glasgow33. Obesity may lead to the following EXCEPT _______________.A. heart diseaseB. diabetesC. premature deathD. a lack of exercise34. David Regan is most probably _________________.A. the reporter from ReutersB. an official of ONSC. the head of Manchester’s public health programsD. a rich businessman who is overweight35. This article is most probably taken from ________________.A. a newspaperB. a science bookC. a novelD. a biography (传记)第三部分英语知识运用A.完形填空(1*10=10)A group of frogs were traveling through the forests, but unluckily two of them fell into ahole.
