AChocolate Factory Tours around the USAEveryone has a favorite way of enjoying the sweet treat of ch ocolate. Let’s take a look at a few chocolate factories through out the USA to see how the sweet chocolate is made. Hershey’s Chocolate TourIn Pennsylvania, the Hershey’s Chocolate Tour (free) at Hers hey’s Chocolate World is an amusement ride that takes visitor s through the production process, from harvesting cocoa bean s to the end result --- Hershey’s Chocolate. You can taste a sample (样品) at the end of the tour.Taza Chocolate TourThe factory tour at Taza Chocolate ($6 per person) in Somerv ille, just outside of Boston, is offered daily and takes visitors o n the journey from bean to bar through a unique method using traditional Mexican stone mills(石墨).Hoffman’s Chocolate Factory TourHoffman’s Chocolate factory in Greenacres offers daily chocol ate factory tours (free).

PennsylvaniaC. EmeraldD. Spr ingfieldBOver the years, Dawn followed many different weight loss pla ns. Each plan worked for a while, but finally her weight would go back up again. So when Dawn’s employer decided to offer a one-year-long healthy weight program that focused on making lasting c hanges instead of a short-term diet, Dawn can’t wait to try it. She lost 35 pounds in a ye ar on the healthy weight program. However, more importantly, she learned many new eating habits that she liked and could continue with.An important part of Dawn’s program was setting realistic goal s that she could turn into long-term habits. She recognized small changes she could make, s uch as eating an apple instead of a piece of bread for a morni ng snack.Changing how she thought about food also helped Dawn go fr om diet to healthy eating. Dawn doesn’t refuse desserts and o ther types of food that might be considered bad for people on a diet. Instead, she has learned to take smaller amounts. Dawn also learned to pay attention to her hunger and fullness sign als. Instead of eating until she feels full, she eats just enough to feel satisfied.Having someone she could turn to for support helped Dawn a lot. As part of her healthy weight program, Dawn was assigne d (指派) a health coach(教练). This person helped Dawn eliminate things that might prev ent her from staying with her healthy eating habits. And when she felt it was difficult for her to keep on her healthy eating ha bits, she would turn to her health coach for help.Dawn now realizes that it is her behaviour, such as eating wel l and being physically active, that really makes her healthy, no t her weight.4. What is the difference between the new weight loss plan and the plans that Dawn tried before?A. The new plan costs more money.B. The new plan lasts for a longer period of time.C. The new plan is more focused on a short-term diet.D. The new plan is more focused on developing new eating h abits.5. Which of the following activities is NOT part of Dawn’s new weight program?A. Eating food cooked by her coach.B. Turning to a health coach for help.C. Changing her thoughts on food.D. Setting goals that can be achieved easily.6. The underlined word, “eliminate”, in the fourth paragraph m eans ________.A. collectB. recordC. expectD. remove7. What is the most important thing that Dawn’s story tells us?A. Dawn’s new weight program is very useful.B. Good eating habits are the key to losing weight.C. Other people’s support can help one lose weight.D. Fat people should join Dawn’s new program.CHundreds of years ago, news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse. It took days, weeks and someti mes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and a ll over the world every day, either by watching TV or reading n ewspapers.Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life sinc e the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not other s? What makes a good newspaper story?Firstly, it is important to report news stories. TV stations can r eport news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers gi ve more about the same story. They may also look at the stor y in another way, or they may print completely different stories to those on TV.Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. Pe ople don’t want to read stories about everyday life. As a result , many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example, newspapers never print stories abo ut planes landing safely; instead they print stories about plane accidents.Another factor (因素) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events in their own cou ntry. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.8. According to the passage, how do people learn about news stories in the world now?A. They carry news stories and tell others from place to plac e on foot or by horse.B. They tell each other what they have seen with their eyes.C. They watch TV or read newspapers.D. They listen to the radio every day.9. The difference between newspaper stories and TV news re ports is that _______ .A. people can learn more about the same news story from a n ewspaperB. people can read the news story more quickly in a newspap erC. people can read news stories in other countriesD. people can read news stories about their own country10. To make a good newspaper story, how many factors does the passage talk about?A. Two.B. Three.C. Five.D. Six.11. According to the passage, which of the following can you most possibly watch on TV?A. Your teacher has got a cold.B. The bike in front of your house is lost.C. You often play football with your friends after school.D. A tiger in the city zoo has run out and hasn’t been caught. DInstagram is a social networking app made for sharing photos and videos from a smartphone. However, some people argue that Instagram is harmful to teens.Essena O’Neill seemed to have a perfect life --- at least online. The Australian teen had 500,000 Instagram f ollowers. Her Internet fame led to a modeling contract(合同). Companies paid her to show their clothing in her photos. But in November 2015, Essena, then 18, shut down her Insta gram account(账户). She cut off more than 2000 photos. “I’ve spent the majorit y of my teenage life being attracted to social media,” she wrot e. “I’m leaving Instagram.”Essena left a few photos online, and told the truth behind the photos she created. For example, she didn’t eat all day before taking a picture in a bikini(比基尼泳装). She took that photo 100 times to make sure her stomach looked perfect. “Social media is not real life!” she says now.Seeing perfect-looking Instagram photos can make teens feel like they don’t meet the standard of beauty. And if your photos don’t get man y “likes”, you might take it personally. Even Essena worried all the time about what others thought of her. Trying to appear p erfect online made her feel alone. One day, she wrote, “I had never been more miserable(痛苦的).”Not everyone thinks that Instagrem is harmful, though. Some people say it might even be good for teens. Why? Unlike man y ads and magazines, Instagram includes photos of all differe nt kinds of people. That means you’re more likely to see a ph oto of someone who looks like you.Plus, studies show that many people who use social media fe el more connected to friends. And social media users are mor e likely to know about big events in the lives of friends and fa mily. So maybe it’s OK to love Instagram as long as you love yourself too.12. According to the text, Instagram brought Essena ______.A. a healthy lifestyleB. fame and moneyC. many true friendsD. a perfect teenage life13. Why did Essena shut down her Instagram account at age 18?A. Because she was too busy.B. Because her shape changed.C. Because she faced great pressure.D. Because her ph otos were deleted14. What’s the author’s attitude towards Instagram?A. WorriedB. CuriousC. SurprisedD. Supportive15. What does the text mainly discuss?A. Should you be on a diet to look perfect?B. Should you make friends on social media?C. Should you give others “likes” on Instagram?D. Should you shut down your Instagram account?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。

辽宁省营口市部分重点高中2017-2018学年高一下学期期中考试英语试题

2017-2018学年下学期期中考试英语试卷高一试卷命题人:(时间:100分钟满分:150分)本试题卷分第Ⅰ卷和第Ⅱ卷两部分第Ⅰ卷(选择题,共85分)第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节:(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项标号涂黑。

AJust a couple of hours ago, I was on the plane, ready to fly home from London. The flight had been delayed by a few hours so it felt good to be so close to take-off. I had my iPod in place and a new book to read. Then, over the loudspeaker came the pilot’s voice: “The ground crew has found a metal instrument in one tire. We r egret that we must cancel this flight.”The passengers’ reactions that announcement led to were interesting. One man close to me began to argue with a flight attendant. A couple in another row complained loudly. A businessman in a black suit actually kicked the seat in front of him. Yet some passengers responded differently. An elderly gentleman smiled as he helped others take their bags down from the overhead compartments. A teenager, rather than trying to rush off the plane like most of the other passenge rs, stopped to help a woman with a disability. The lady sitting next to me laughed and said: “Hey, it’s not the end of the world,” before she made a call to her kids and shared her adventure with them, the wisest among us who has a remarkable ability to maintain grounded(稳定的) when times get tough.No life is perfect; mine certainly isn’t. We all must face challenges, both large and small. You and I have the power to choose to rise above the external circumstances(外部环境). We always have the choice to be strong and kind when things fall apart.That’s grace under pressure. My seatmate was right — things could have been so much worse. Anyway, I am safe. I have my health. I have two wonderful children. I have work I love and so much to be grateful for. Sure I now have to wait a few hours to catch the next flight home.21. What caused the passengers’ different reactions?A. The loudspeaker.B. The delay of the flight.C. The ground crew’s fault.D. The pilot’s announcement.22. Who turned his anger on the seat?A. A teenager helping the disabled.B. An old man taking bags down.C. A man in a black suit.D. A man close to the author.23. What did the woman sitting next to the author do?A. She assisted a disabled woman.B. She made a phone call to her family.C. She helped others carry their luggage.D. She told moving stories to her children.24. What can we learn from the story?A. Our life is full of ups and downs.B. It is natural to be scared under pressure.C. We should help each other in times of difficulty.D. We should be positive and calm when life is hard.BThe Spotlight in RioPhelps puts spotlight on cupping(拔火罐)Olympic gold medalist Michael Phelps led American swimmers to a gold medal in the 4×100-meter relay, but what grabbed media attention and led to stories and photos around the globe were the purple and red circles on his back.Michael Phelps of the USA is seen with red cupping marks on his shoulder as he competes during the 2016 Rio Olympics men’s 200m butterfly in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Aug 8, 2016.Chinese swimmer Fu Yuanhui goes viralChina’s women’s swimmer Fu Yuanhui has created a sensation online not just by winning the bronze medal in the 100m backstroke competition, but also by her facial expressions during the post semi-final interview with China Central Television (CCTV) on Monday.When asked whether she held back for the final, Fu replied, "No, I used my ‘prehistorical power’."What she meant was that she had spared no efforts in the semi-final. Since then, the so-called "prehistorical power"has gone viral and become a new hot word.Britain wins first Olympic diving gold in men’s synchronized 3m springboard(男子双人3米跳板) Britain’s Jack Laugher and Chris Mears ended China’s gold medal monopoly(垄断) over diving events at the Rio Olympics by winning the men’s synchronized 3m springboard final on Wednesday, the country’s first-ever Olympic gold medal in diving.Laugher and Mears finished with a six-round total of 454.32 points, just 4.11 points ahead of silver medallists Mike Hixon and Sam Dorman of the U SA at the Maria Lenk Aquatics Center. China’s Cao Yuan and Qin Kai took the bronze with 443.70 points.25. What attracted media attention with Phelps’ winning the gold medal?A. His great leadership.B. His scars on his back.C.

Her devotion and determination to swimming.B. Her achievement in the 100m backstroke competition.C. Her facial expression during the post-semifinal interview.D. Her humorous reply to the reporter — so called "prehistorical power".27. What can we learn from the third news?A. China didn’t win any gold medals in diving events at the Rio Olympics.B. Britain became the gold medal monopolist of diving events at the Rio Olympics.C. Mike Hixon and Sam Dorman of the USA took silver with 447.81 points.D. Britain had never won the Olympic diving gold medal before the Rio Olympics.CHow can you change negative(消极的) thoughts? Many people suggest changing your attitude by thinking of something bright and happy.However, scientists from Queen’s University in Canada said that there might be another way: by walking like a happy person.“It is not surprising that our mood and the way we feel affects how we walk, but we want to see whether the way we move also affects how we feel,” explained Nikolaus Troje, the lead scientist, to The Independent.Scientists believed that the way we remember emotional messages is affected by our mood. Those who suffer from depression (抑郁) remember negative information far more easily than active messages, especially when the information is about them.In order to prove this, Troje and his team used cameras to observe 47 people walking on the treadmill (跑步机). Half of the people were encouraged to mimic (模仿) a depressive walking style, while the other half moved like a happy person. Walking speed was kept equal for both groups.During the time on the treadmill, the scientists read out a list of active and negative words, asking people to decide whether or not each word described them well. Afterwards, people were asked to recite as many of the words as they could remember.As expected, those who had been mimicking a depressed walk remembered more negative words than those that had been walking in a happy manner.This finding means that our walk influences the way we treat information. And the scientists believe that using a happy walking style could help with treatment for depression.28. What new way did scientists from Queen’s University possibly find to change negative thoughts?A. Doing something happy.B. Thinking of something bright.C. Walking like a happy person.D. Thinking about being a happy person.29. Which of the following is NOT true about Troje’s test?A. The 47 people walked on the treadmill.B. Half of the people walked in a depressive walking style.C. Another half walked in a happy walking style.D. The two groups walked at different speeds.30. In the test, those who walked in a happy manner ______.A. remembered more negative wordsB. remembered more positive wordsC. lived a happier lifeD. lived a harder life31. According to the story, the finding can help ______.A. treat patients with depressionB. improve one’s acting skillsC. deal with people’s memory lossD. change a person’s exercise habitDArt and culture is lived and breathed in every corner of Canada. Due to a racial and immigrant(移民的) population, the variety and richness of art and sports is very evident.Since World War Ⅱ, Canada has produced an impressive amount of writing. From novels to poetry, the selection is wide. Native writers are also becoming better known across Canada in recent years.Musicians are reaching a higher level of recognition in the world music scene. Everything from country to pop, classical to heavy rock can be found across Canada and across the globe performed by Canadian artists.The National Film Board, a film crew in Canada, is the most famous producer of movies in Canada. However, many Hollywood studios are turning to Canada as an alternative(供替代的选择) to the more expensive US. Many well-known actors, directors, screen writers and movies come from Canada and often scoop awards for their work.French art was the first to appear in Canada along the St Lawrence in and around Quebec. Since then the volume of art and artists has increased. Canadian photography as well as painting by Canadians is not well-known outside of Canada but recognition is increasing.Sport is a major part of today’s society in Canada. Hockey is the most popular sport with more participants taking part in curling(冰壶). American-style football and baseball are also very popular and all of these sports are played across Canada.32. Canada has many forms of art and culture because it has ___________.A. a long historyB. a large areaC. a large populationD. a variety of immigrants33. What does the underlined word "scoop"mean in the passage?A. Expect.B. Set up.C. Harvest.D. Ignore.34. Which group of Canadian artists is well-known all over the world today?A. Native writers and screen writers.B. Photographers and actors.C. Painters and writers.D. Musicians, actors and directors.35. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Brief Introduction to CanadaB. Canadian Arts, Culture and SportsC. Canadian ArtistsD. Canadian Arts and Culture Are World Famous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。

AQueensland is one of the most amazing states in . It has som e of the most beautiful natural scenery on the planet, with the Great Barrier Reef, rainforests and impressive beaches.The Great Barrier ReefIt is one of the world’s largest natural features. It stretches more than 2,300 km along the north eastern coast of Australia from the northern tip of to just north of Bundaberg. The thing s that most surprise visitors to the reef are the colors. Without doubt, the best way to see the Great Barrier Reef is b y diving. If you have a little extra money and you are feeling a bit lazy, you can fly over the reef in a plane.Fraser IslandAnother area of natural beauty is . This is the world’s largest sand island. It’s best visited from on the mainland, where th ere are a number of places offering trips around the island. To fully appreciate you should go for three or four days. Attracti ons include some beautiful fresh-water lakes, particularly Lake Wabby and . You can walk aro und these on white sands untouched by human footprints. Ind ian Head also has some beautiful views. Braver travelers can go and watch sharks circling the water hundreds of meters bel ow.The Whitsunday IslandsIt would be a pity to travel around Queensland without taking a trip around the . They were named by Captain Cook in 177 0, after the day on which he arrived. Here are some of the gre at things you can do there.●Cruise around them on a relaxing trip.●Take a sailing course.●Look at the aboriginal (土著的) paintings in caves on Hook Island.●Have fun in the water doing lots of water sports.So, will you be going to ?1.

Lake Wabby and are rarely visited places.B. Only brave ones can watch sharks in the deep ocean.C. Few places on the mainland can offer trips around the islan d.D. One should have at least 2 days to fully explore .3. The purpose of writing this passage is . .A. to call on people to protect QueenslandB. to inform the latest newsC. to advertise for QueenslandD. to break a world recordBWe all think plants were expected to get larger with increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but changes in temperatur e, humidity(湿度)and nutrient availability seem to have trumped the benefits of i ncreased carbon dioxide” said researchers from the National University of Singapore.45 percent of the species studied now reach smaller adult siz es than they did in the past. The researchers pointed out that warmer temperatures and changing habitats, caused by clima te change, are possible reasons for shrinking creatures.“ We do not yet know the mechanisms(机制)involved, or why some organism are getting smaller while oth ers are unaffected,” the researchers said. “Until we understan d more, we could be risking negative consequences that we c an’t yet quantify. ’’The change is big in cold-blooded animals. Only two decades of warmer temperatures are enough to make retiles (爬行动物)smaller. An increase of only 1 degree centigrade caused nearl y a 10 percent increase in metabolism(新陈代谢). Greater use of energy resulted in tiny tortoises and little li zards. Fish are smaller now too. Though overfishing has play ed a part in reducing numbers, experiments show that warmer temperatures also stop fish growing.Warm-blooded animals aren’t immune(免除)from the size change caused by climate change. Many birds a re now smaller. Soay sheep are thinner. are weaken And pol ar bears are smaller, compared with historical records.This is not the first time this has happened in Earth’s history.55 million years ago, a warming event similar to the current cli mate change caused bees, spiders and ants to shrink by 50 t o 75 percent over several thousand years. That event happen ed over a longer time than the current climate change.The speed of modem climate change could mean organisms may not respond or adapt quickly enough, especially those wi th long generation times climate change will be shown in the f uture.4. What does the text mainly talk about______A. Why some species become smaller.B. How climate changes in Earth’s history?C. Climate change has many negative effects.D. Species are becoming smaller as climate gets warmer.5. The underlined word “trumped” in the first paragraph proba bly mean .A. strengthenedB. gainedC. beatD. equaled6. Researchers from the National University of Singapore beli eve thatA. they have found the exact causes for creatures getting sma ller.B. all the animals on the earth have become smaller.C. climate change has more negative effects on warm-blooded animals.D. increase in energy use can lead to creatures getting smalle r.7. What does the author feel about the climate change?A. DisappointedB. OptimisticC. WorriedD. ShamefulCIf Confucius(孔子) were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on hi s special day, few people in the will give him a passing thoug ht. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remembe r the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Con fucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of . In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs hav e gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recentl y, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese la nguage and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should ta ke advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for t he drawbacks(缺点) of Western philosophy.

The passage is likely to appear in ________.A. a newspaperB. a history paperC. a biographyD. a philosophy textbookDThe discussion on renewable energy has been going on for at least a decade and people have relied on fossil fuels almost entirely for more than a century. However, the situation when fossil fuels were the most efficient and the cheapest source of energy has been left far in the past. Many countries such as Germany and Sweden have already made significant efforts t o fix this situation, employing numerous power plants working on the renewable resources of energy. The most effective among these resources is geothermal(地热的)energy. Geothermal energy does not depend on the world’s economic and political situation as strongly as fossil fuels do. Besides, extracting(提炼)fossil fuels adds to the price of energy produced from them. T herefore, geothermal energy is much cheaper than traditional ones, saving up to 80% of the costs over fossil fuels.Being a renewable resource, geothermal energy produces les s waste and pollution than traditional energy sources. In geoth ermal systems, carbon dioxide makes up about 10% of air pro duced. Overall, in order to produce the electricity that can be used for one hour, the geothermal systems produce 0.1 poun d of carbon dioxide and other harmful gases. For a compariso n, a power plant producing from gas produces up to 2 pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and those power plant s that work on coal(煤)produce an astonishing 3.6 pounds of greenhouse gases. Low costs is another reason why using geothermal power pla nts should be the first choice for many countries. Geothermal heat systems require 25% to 50% less energy for work compa red with the traditional systems for heating or cooling. Besides , geothermal equipment is less big: due to the very nature of g eothermal energy, geothermal power plants have only a fewmoving parts, all of which can be easily sheltered inside a rela tively small building. What’s more, the life span of geothermal equipment is rather long. All these make geothermal power st ations easy to build and keep.12. Fossil fuels are more expensive than geothermal energy p artly because ______.A. it is free to use geothermal energyB. the production of fossil fuels costs a lotC. fossil fuels are nearly used upD. geothermal energy doesn’t depend on political situation13. According to Paragraph 3, what can be concluded from the comparison?A. Geothermal energy is environmentally friendly.B. Gas and coal are often used to produce electricity.C. Coal is much more efficient than gas.D. The geothermal systems don’t produce harmful gases.14. Geothermal equipment is usually not as big as that of tradi tional energy because of_____.A. the life span of geothermal equipmentB. geotherm al power plantsC. the nature of geothermal energyD. the small buildings15. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Many countries have benefited from geothermal energy.B. Geothermal energy is well accepted.C. Fossil fuels are being run out of.D. Geothermal energy has many advantages.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

When you’re on the go(四处奔走), your best friend and resource(资源) can be your phone. In the age of smart phones, apps are like guiding stars (指路明灯): They can point you in the right direction for a hotel, list expenses(花费), send postcards, and much more. When used together,these apps can be the basic travel tool, placing a wealth of(很多的) information at your fingertips(指尖) no matter where you are on the planet(星球).

In a medicine(医学)magazine.C. On a popular website.D. In a business report(商业报告).BEarly in the 16th century men were trying to reach(到达) Asia by traveling west from Europe(欧洲). In order to find Asia they had to find a way past South America(南美洲). The man who finally found the way from the Atlantic Ocean(大西洋) to the Pacific (太平洋) was Ferdinand Magellan (麦哲伦). Magellan sailed from Seville in August, 1519 with 5 ships and about 280 men. Fourteen months later, after spending(度过) the cold winter on the coast of Patagonia, he discovered(发现) the channel(河道) which is now called Magellan Strait (海峡). In November, 1520, after many months of dangers from rocks and storms, the 3 remaining(剩下的) ships entered the ocean on the other side of South America. They then continued(继续), hoping to reach Asia. But they did not see any land until they reached the islands off the coast of Asia. Before they arrived at these islands, later known as the Philippines (菲律宾), men were dying of starvation (饥饿). While they were staying in the Philippines, Magellan was killed in battle. The remaining officers then had to get back to Spain. They decided to sail round Africa. After many difficulties, one ship with eighteen men sailed into Seville three years after leaving. They were all that remained of Ma gellan’s exploration. However, their achievement(成就) was great. They were the first men to sail round the world.24.The purpose of Magellan’s ex ploration was to ________.A. find a seaway(海路) from the Atlantic to the Pacific.B. sail round the world.C. carry men to Philippines.D. make a voyage to Asia.25. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage concerning(与...有关) theexploration?A. Cold winter in Patagonia.B. Lack of equipment(缺乏装备).C. The death of Magellan.D. Dangers from rocks and storms.26. The number of the ships lost on the WHOLE exploration was ________.A. twoB. threeC. fourD. five27. The best title for this passage is ________.A. The First Exploration to Sail round the WorldB. The Most Dangerous ExplorationC. The Discovery of the PhilippinesD. The Discovery of Magellan’s StraitCHave you ever found yourself in this situation(情形): You hear a song you used to sing when you were a child –a bit of nostalgia(怀旧) or “blas t(冲击波)from the past,” as we say. But it is not a distant(遥远的) childhood memory(童年回忆). The words(歌词) e back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago.Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages.Here is what they did. Researchers took 60 adults(成年人) and randomly(随机地)divided(划分) them into three groups of 20. Then they gave the groups three different types of “listen-and-repeat(听及重复)” learning conditions. Researchers had one group simply speak the words. They had the second group speak the words to a rhythm(伴着节奏). And they asked the third group to sing the words.All three groups studied words from the Hungarian(匈牙利的) language for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series of(一系列的) language tests(测试) to see what they remembered.Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people know the language. It does not share any roots(根系) with Germanic(德国的) or Romance (罗马的) languages, such as Italian or Spanish. After the tests were over, the singers came out(出现) on top. The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overall(全面的) performance(表现). They did the best in most of the tests. They also performed two times better than those who simply(仅仅) learned the words by speaking them.Dr. Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are contained(包含) in a catchy(易记的) 3, or memorable(值得纪念的) 4, tune(曲调) 5.Dr. Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle(挣扎) to learn foreignlanguages. On the Univ ersity of Edinburgh’s website Dr. Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experimental(实验的) evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for future research in this area (领域).”28. The “song” mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to__________.A. recall(回忆) the pastB. attract the readersC. introduce(引进) the topicD. pare the childhood with the present29. According to the passage which language doesn’t share the same root with Germanicor Romance languages?A. Hungarian.B. Spanish.C. Italian.D. English.30. Based on the last two paragraphs, we can conclude(总结) that __________.A. singing is not the best way to learn a language.B. the brain probably works best when the foreign language learners sing the words.C. a listen-repeat method is very plex(复杂的) for any language learner.D. Dr. Katie Overy and Dr. Ludke disagree(不同意) with each other.31. In which situation can the finding(发现) of the research be applied(应用)?A. A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak.B. A child is going to have his first music lesson.C. A student is going to learn a new English song.D. An American is going to learn some Chinese.DThe average(平均) American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch television at age three, however, today it is nine months. Yet, most parents think that television has a bad influence(影响) on their children. For example, in the early 1970s, my parents believed that my bad eyesight(视力) was the result of sitting too close to the screen(屏幕), and they therefore made my stay at least six feet(英尺) from it. Today, most people have no such worry, but many new ridiculous (荒谬的)sayings have appeared:* TV makes kids stupid(愚蠢的). Many children watch more educational(教育性的) programs (节目) when they are pre-schoolers(学龄前儿童). When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children.* TV makes kids violent(暴力的). The real story is not so simple. Hundreds of studies show that watching violence on TV makes children more aggressive (好斗的). But a study of over 5000 children also finds that some positive programs make children kinder. The problem is that kids are increasingly(越来越) watching shows with violence instead of those suitable(合适的) for their age.* Sitting around watching TV makes kids overweight(超重). An experiment finds that when children watch less television, they do lose extra(额外的) weight; however, reducing their television time does not make them more active. The real problem lies in(在于)snacking, a widespread(广泛传播的)habit for kids, and junk food(垃圾食品)advertisements.* TV helps kids get to sleep. The opposite(相反的) is true. The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular(不规律的) sleep and nap (小睡)patterns. Allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution.32 . Which one is the advantage of educational TV programs?A. They will make children solve difficult problems better than others.B. They will improve children’s ability(能力)to get along with others.C. They are likely to make children more aggressive.D. They will make sure of children’s success in the future.33.Why are children spending much time watching TV likely to be fat?A. Watching TV makes children lazy(懒散的)and inactive(不积极的).B. Children are attracted by the advertisement on TV.C. Watching TV doesn’t burn up(燃烧)as much fat as doing sports.D. Children like to snack while watching TV.34.What influence does watching TV have on a child’s sleep?A. Children are likely to sleep deeper after watching TV.B. Children’s sleep time will be greatly increased(增加).C. It will make children form a bad habit(习惯)of sleeping.D. It will make children sleep easier.35.What is the purpose of this text?A. To reduce(减少)people’s knowledge of watching TV.B. To inform(告知)parents of the advantages(优点)of watching TV.C. To explain the bad influences that watching TV has on children.D. To correct parents’ wrong ideas of television’s effect on children. 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。

AMark Twain, the famous American writer and a great master of humor, liked to play jokes on others. But once a joke was played on him. One day Mark Twain was invited to give a talk in a small town. At lunch he met a young man, one of his friends.The young man said that he had an uncle with him. He told Mark Twain that his uncle never laughed or smiled, and that nobody and nothing was able to make his uncle smile or laugh.“You bring your uncle to my talk this evening, ” said Mark Twain. “I’m sure I can make him laugh.”That evening the young man and his uncle sat in the front. Mark Twain began to speak. He told several funny stories and made everyone in the room laugh. But the man never even smiled. Mark Twain told more funny stories, but the old man still kept quiet. Mark Twain continued to tell his funny stories. Finally he stopped. He was tired and quite disappointed.Som e days later, Mark Twain told another friend what had happened. “Oh, ” said his friend, “I know that man. He’s been deaf for years.”21.The writer wrote the passage mainly to .A.tell readers Mark Twain liked playing jokesB.tell readers a joke played on Mark TwainC.tell readers Mark Twain was a great writerD.tell readers how to tell a funny story22.Why did Mark Twain ask the young man to bring his uncle to his talk?A.Because he thought he could make the old man laugh.B.Because he wanted to get to know the old man.C.Because the old man could tell stories.D.Because he wanted to learn from the old man.23.Mark Twain stopped finally because he was .A.disappointed B.upset C.concerned D.intelligentBBoxing day is on December 26th, the day after Christmas, and is celebrated in Great Britain and in most areas settled by the British except for the United States of America, including Canada, Australia and New Zealand.Despite its name, Boxing Day has nothing to do with competition sports. While the exact origins of the holiday are unclear, it is likely that Boxing Day began in England during the Middle Ages. Some historians say the holiday developed because servants were asked to work on Christmas Day, but took the following day off. As servants prepared to leave to visit their families, their employers would present them with gift boxes. Another theory is that the alms(捐款,救济物) boxes in churches were opened and the money was given to the poor on December 26th. Still some believe that, centuries ago, on the day after Christmas, members of the merchant(商业)class would give boxes containing food and fruit, clothing and money to businessmen and servants. The gifts were an expression of thankfulness, much like today when people receive bonuses(奖金)from their employers because of a well-done job. These gifts, given in boxes, gave the holiday its name, “Boxing Day”.Traditionally, Boxing Day is a day when families get together. It is a day of watching sports games with family. In the past, hunting was one of the favorite activities on this day. People usually went hunting for wrens or foxes. Today, Boxing Day is spent with family and friends with lots of food and sharing of friendship and love. Government buildings and small businesses are closed but the malls are open. Shopping is a popular Boxing Day activity, and the malls are usually filled with bargains. Besides these activities, many businesses, organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating their time, services and money to aid Food Banks, providing gifts for the poor, or helping an individual family that is in need. Boxing Day has mainly become an extension of the Christmas holiday, giving working families one more day as the happy time of a year. 24.On Boxing Day servants probably ________.A.took part in competition sportsB.still had to work for employersC.were allowed to visit their familiesD.were given Alms boxes by employers25.Members of the merchant class gave gift boxes to businessmen and servants to ________.A.show care and kindness to them B.thank them for doing a good jobC.provide them with enough money D.pass on the traditional love and spirit 26.What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?A.The beginning of Boxing Day. B.The hunting on Boxing Day.C.The good spirit of Boxing Day. D.The activities on Boxing Day. 27.Why is shopping popular on Boxing Day?A.Because government buildings and small businesses are closed.B.Because only malls are open on that day.C.Because things can be bought at a low price.D.Because people buy things to donate to the poor.CThis is a true story that happened in Japan. In order to renovate(翻新) the house, a Japanese tore open the walls. Japanese houses normally have an empty space between the wooden walls. When tearing down the walls, he found that there was a lizard(蜥蜴) stuck there because a nail from outside was hammered into one of its feet. He saw this, feeling pity and curious. When he checked the nail, he found it was nailed 10 years ago when the house was first built.What happened? The lizard had survived in such a position for 10 years! It has been in a dark wall partition(夹层) for 10 years without moving!Then he wondered how this lizard survived for 10 years without moving a single step—since its foot was nailed! So he stopped his work and observed the lizard: What has it been doing? What and how has it been eating? Later, he didn’t know from where another lizard appeared, with food in its mouth. Ah! He was astonished and touched deeply. The free lizard had been feeding the stuck one for the past 10 years.Such love, a beautiful love! Such love happened with this tiny creature. What can love do? It can do wonders! Just think about it: One lizard had been feeding the otherone untiringly for 10 long years, without giving up hope on its partner. If a small creature like a lizard can love like this, just imagine how we can love if we try. 28.How did the Japanese feel when seeing the stuck lizard?A.Frightened. B.Enjoyable. C.Confused. D.Usual.29.What can we learn from the free lizard?A.It teaches us never to abandon our loved ones.B.It teaches us to give more help to our loved ones.C.It tells us to take pity on the stuck lizard.D.It encourages us to live even longer.30.Why did the Japanese stop his work?A.To watch how long the lizard can still live here.B.To take out the nail and set the lizard free.C.To have a rest by watching the lizard.D.To find out why the lizard had survived here for 10 years.31.What would be the best title for the passage?A.A Wonder B.Two Lizards C.Such a Story D.Lizard LoveDAstronauts on shorter spaceship tasks often work very long days. Tasks are scheduled so tightly that break times are often used to finish the day’s work. Thi s type of schedule is far too demanding for long missions on the International Space Station (ISS). ISS crew members usually live in space for at least a quarter of a year. They work five days on and two days off to mimic the normal way they do things on Earth as much as possible. Weekends give the crew valuable time to rest and do a few hours of housework. They can communicate with family and friends by email, Internet phone and through private video conferences.While astronauts cannot go to a football game or a movie in space, there are many familiar activities that they can still enjoy. Before a mission, the family and friends of each ISS crew member put together a collection of family photos, messages, videos and reading material for the astronauts to look at when they will be floating 370 kilometers above the Earth. During their mission, the crew also receives care packages with CDs, books, magazines, photos and letters. And as from early 2010, the Internet became available on the ISS, giving astronauts the chance to do some “Web surfing”in their personal time. Besides relaxing with these more common entertainments, astronauts can simply enjoy the experience of living in space.Many astronauts say that one of the most relaxing things to do in space is to look out of the window and stare at the universe and the Earth. Both the shuttle and the ISS circle the planet several times each day, and every moment offers a new view of the Earth’s vast land mass and oceans.32. In Paragraph 1, what does the word “mimic” mean?A. admit.B. cover.C. change.D. copy.33. According to the context, which of the following best describes the families of the astronauts on the ISS?A. They are excited and fascinated.B. They are worried and upset.C. They are patient and annoyed.D. They are caring and thoughtful.34. In the last paragraph, the writer shows that astronauts __________.A. get more pleasure in space than on the EarthB. love to see the Earth from spaceC. regard space life as commonD. find living in space a bit boring and tiring35. The passage mainly discusses how astronauts ___________. .A. work for shorter missions in spaceB. spend their time in spaceC. observe the Earth from spaceD. connect with people on the Earth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。

APeter, a high school student, was pretty busy with school, and he was on the soccer team. High school was hard, because everyone wanted to have nice clothes, hang out, drive cars, and all these cost money. Peter’s father was the sort of guy that believed you had to earn whatever you got, so he wasn’t just about to hand over lots of money for Peter to use to have fun. So, he had to get a job.During his freshman year summer vacation, his classmate got him a job working on a hay (干草) farm. He threw hay up into wagons as the tractor drove around fields, and then they stacked (剁起) it in the hot barn. It was a hot, low paying job.He once worked a few nights a week at a grocery store. He put things on the shelf. It was a lot of lifting and carrying, and his arms were strong from this and the previous job. It was dull and didn’t pay much.He took some time off when soccer got serious, but the following summer he tried working at a lumber yard. It was hot outside, but he got a lot of exercise lifting and carrying things like boards and drywall. He also learned a lot about building supplies. It still didn’t pay well.From there, he spent a year doing some tutoring for a friend of the family, but that was piecemeal. His first real job came the last year at school, when he fixed registers and worked on computers at a big box store. It was his favorite job yet, but it still didn’t pay well.What Peter realized with all of these jobs was that he needed a better paying job! The only way to get that was to get trained or educated. He could go to school and get a 2year degree in an office or technical position. His other choices were going to a 4year college or joining the army. He wasn’t sure what he was going to do yet, but he knew he had to do something. Jobs were a lot of work, money was hard to earn, but he liked staying busy and being able to buy things. Peter wanted the most out of life, and that meant education.21. How many jobs had Peter taken?A. FiveB. FourC. ThreeD. Six22.All the jobs Peter had taken had one thing in common:________.A. They needed hard labourB. They were dull and tiresomeC. They didn’t pay wellD. They were done during his vacation23. ________was the most important for Peter if he wanted a good job.A. OpportunityB. EducationC. ConfidenceD. Wisdom24. We can learn from the text that________.A. it was very hard for Peter to make his choicesB. Peter’s father didn’t care about himC. Peter knew what to do for his futureD. Peter was determined to do whatever he likedBA jobless man applied for the position of “office boy” at Micros oft. The HR manager interviewed him and then watched him cleaning the floor as a test. “You are employed,” he said. “Give me your e-mail address and I’ll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start.”The man replied, “But I don’t have a computer, neither an e-mail.”“I’m sorry,” said the HR manager. “If you don’t have an e-mail, that means you do not exist. And who doesn’t exist cannot have the job.”The man left with no hope at all. He didn’t know what to do, with only ten dolla rs in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy 10kg tomatoes. He then sold the tomatoes from door to door. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital(资本). He repeated the operation three times, and returned home happily with 60 dollars.The man realized that he can survive in this way, and started to go every day earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled every day. Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles. Five years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers(零售商) in the US.He started to plan his family’s future and decided to have a life insurance.He called an insurance broker(保险经纪人) and chose a protection plan.When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his e-mail. The man replied, “I don’t have an e-mail.”The broker answered curiously, “You don’t have e-mail, and yet have succeeded in building an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an e-mail?” The man thought for a while and replied, “Yes, I’d be an office boy at Microsoft!”25 Why can’t the man have the job at Microsoft?A. Because he was lazy.B. Because he didn’t pass the test.C. Because he didn’t have an e-mail.D. Because he didn’t have a computer.26 The underlined word “tripled” can be replaced by ________.A. become largeB. become 3 timesC. increase quicklyD. decrease quickly27 According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. The man is one of the biggest food retailers in the world.B. The man didn’t give up though he failed the interview.C. He started his career by selling tomatoes in the supermarket.D. Those who have e-mails can work at Microsoft.28 The man can be described as ______A. helpful and considerateB. positive and generousC. smart and hardworkingD. stubborn and unselfishCMy enthusiasm about oral health really started when I was eleven years old. One day,I was playing basketball for my primary school team. When I reached down to catch a ball, my front teeth crashed against the knee of another player. That caused instant tears. Looking back now I realize how lucky I am that I didn't completely knock out both of my teeth, but at that time being left with two half-broken front teeth felt like the end of the world ! That's the funny thing about oral health: when it's good we don't think about it at all,but when it's bad itis all you can think about.Through my position with the Population Health Promotion Program I’ve been able to share my enthusiasm about oral health with the people in Southern Alberta. Our oral health team offers to examine the eyes of children aged 12 to 36 months for free. The school program us to educate the students on good oral health for children in kindergarten grades one and two. Last year, with the arrival of hundreds of refugees(难民),the oral health team provided clinics where newcomers could receive public health services. Since the first clinic in January 2016,we’ve seen almost 300 newcomers in the South West Zone.Working closely with the refugee population,I became aware that public health services in developing countries needed to be greatly increased to meet the needs of the public. This realization excited an interest I always had to volunteer and spread my enthusiasm about oral health globally. In October of 2016,I travelled w i t h a v o l u n t e e r g r o u p,K i n d n e s s i n A c t i o n,t o Tanzania Africa. There I provided oral health education in remote areas for two weeks. The experience deepened my enthusiasm about public health and motivated me to apply for the Master of Health Studies program.29.What made the author enthusiastic about oral health?A.A sport accident. B.A hit by a basketball.C.His teammates' teasing. D.His nature-born interest. 30.How did the author feel when his two front teeth were half-broken? A.Fortunate. B.Regretful C.Ashamed. D.Hopeless. 31.What did the author's oral health team do in Southern Alberta?A.They provided free accommodations for refugees.B.They offered oral health education to local teachers.C.They supplied free eye checks to young children.D.They gave regular health check-ups to local citizens.32.What did the author realize from his experience of working with refugees? A.The importance of improving public health globally.B.The lack of public health services in developing countries.C.The necessity of spreading oral health education worldwide.D.The meaning of joining in the Master of Health Studies program.DSome colors people see late at night could cause signs of the condition mental health experts call clinical depression(临床抑郁症). That was the finding of a study that builds on earlier study findings. They show that individuals who live or workin low levels of light overnight can develop clinical depression.Doctors use the word clinical depression to describe severe form of depression. Signs may include loss of interest or pleasure in most activities, low energy levels and thoughts of death or suicide(自杀) .In the new study, American investigators designed an experiment that exposed hamsters(仓鼠)to different colors. The researchers chose hamsters because they are nocturnal, which means they sleep during the day and are active at night. The animals were separated into four groups. One group of hamsters was kept in the dark during their night-time period. Another group was placed in front of a blue light,a third group slept in front of a white light, while a fourth was put in front ofa red light. After four weeks, the researchers noted how much sugary water the hamsters drank. They found that the most depressed animals drank the least amountof water.Randy Nelson, at Ohio State University, says animals that slept in blue and white light appeared to be the most depressed. “What we saw is that these animals didn’t show any sleep interruptions at all but they did mess up biological clock (生物钟) genes and they did show depressive sign but if they were in the dim red light, they did not.” He says there’s a lot of blue in white light. This explains why the blue light and white light hamsters appear to be more depressed than the hamsters seeing red light or darkness.33. From the text we know that ________ made the hamster feel depressed.A. the loss of pleasureB. the colour of the lightC. the amount of the waterD. the level of energy34. What was the purpose of the experiment on hamsters?A. To explain why they liked dark colours.B. To see how much sugary water they drank.C. To show how well they slept.D. To find out what caused the depression on them.35. The author explains the clinical depression by _________.A. setting down general rulesB. presenting research dataC. reporting an experiment processD. giving his own experience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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Ae believed to be decision-makes.For a woman ,to be recognized in such a societyis not easy. Howeve r, there are many who build a name for themselves and proveit is not a male-droven society.Oprah Winfrey (1954-present)Brought up by a teenage mother,single-handedly,Oprah did not have an easy childhood. However.

They became rich through hard work.BMost of the time, people wear hats to protect themselves from harsh weatherconditions.Hats are also worn to show politeness and as signs of social position. But nowadays, hats,especially women’ s hats,are much more than that.More exactly, hats have changed into fashion and style symbols by many movie stars.What’ s more, people now consider many different features( 特色 ) when choosing even a simplehat. Many designers point out that, when choosing the right hat, it’ s important to consider the color of your skin as well as your hair, your height, and the shapeof your face.First of all,the color of the hat should match the color of your skin and hair. For instance, black hats should be avoided if you are dark skinned. If a purplehat is placed on top of red hair, one will look as attractive as a summer flower.Second, the height of the hat is also an important point. Tall women should notgo for hats with tall crowns,just as short womenshould choose hats with upturned brims to give the look of height. Third, and most importantly, the shape of theface decides the kind of hat one should pick. A small, gentle hat that fits thehead looks good on a small face.However,women with big,round faces should choose a different style.As the saying goes, “ Fine feathers make fine birds.” A good hat can not only help your dress but also support your features,so why not choose the best possible one next time you want to be in public?25. What does the underlined word“ harsh ” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. goodB. strange26. According to the article,which attractive?ofC. poorD. differentthe following women would look most27.What does the last paragraph suggest?A.Hats are worn on the head to keep warm.B. Hats can help you look better in public.C.Hats are not as important as character.D. Hats can make you look much taller.28.What is the best title for the article?A.How to Show Your Social PositionB. How to Improve You r FeaturesC.How to Choose a Proper Hat D. How to Design a Nice HatCFarming is moving indoors, where the sun never shines, where rainfall isirrelevant(不相关的 )and where the climate is always right.The perfect crop field could be inside a windowless building with controlled light,temperature,wetness, air quality and nutrition.It could be in a NewYork high-rise or a sprawling complex ( 综合楼 ) in the Saudi desert. It may be an answer to the world’ s food problems.The world is already ha ving trouble feeding itself. Half the people on Earthlive in cities, and nearly half of those--about 3 billion--are hungry or ill-fed.Food prices, currently increasing, are buffeted by dryness, floods and the costof energy required to plant,harvest and transport.And prices will only get more unstable.Climate change makes long-term crop planning uncertain.Farmers in many parts of the world are already using water available to the last drop. And the worldis getting more crowded: by mid-century, the global population will grow from 6.8 billion to 9 billion.To feed so many people may require expanding farmland at the expense of forests and wilderness, or finding ways to completely increase crop output.Gertjan Meeuws has taken the concept of a greenhouse a step further, growingvegetables and house plants in enclosed(关闭的 ) and regulated environments. Intheir research station,water flows into the pans when needed, and the temperature is kept constant.Lights go on and off,creating similar day and night, but accordingto the rhythm of the plant.A building of 100 square meters and 14 layers(层) of plants could provide adaily diet of 200 grams of fresh fruit and vegetables to the entire population ofDen Bosch, about140,000 people.Their idea is not to grow foods that require much space, like corn or potatoes.Here sunlight is not only unnecessary but can be harmful. Plants need onlyspecific wavelengths of light to grow.Their growth rate is three times faster than under greenhouse conditions. They use about 90 percent less water than outdoorsagriculture.And city farming means producing food near the consumer,and there ’ s no need to transport it long distances.29. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A. The climate is worse and worse.B. Th e city people live a hard life.C. The world has difficulty feeding its people.D. The world’ s population is increasing fast.30. The underlined word“ buffeted” in Paragraph 2 means“”.A. badly affectedB. preventedC. demandedD. well achieved’ s farming.31. It can be inferred from the text that GertjanMeeuws A. helps save sea water a lotB. suits different conditionsC. is completely different from greenhouse agricultureD. suits the production of corn32. What is the text mainly about?A. Development of indoor farming.B. Great Revolution in farming.C. Advantages of indoor farming.D. Sunless, rainless indoor farming.DSuccess doesn’ t begin until you be gin the walk down the way towards your goals. And your walk down the way always begins first with a baby step. Why do we callthem baby steps?Are they really anything more than our next step down life’s way?Baby steps are the first steps we take as an act of faith.Wesee others stepping out and we want to show our ability to walk by following them. As we grow, we continue our development by taking extra baby steps.Sometimes we fall;sometimes we fail.After that,all steps become an act of faith;we just become more practiced. If you say to yourself“ I don’t want to make a fool of myself” or“ I ’ d better be good at this” , you ’ ll probably never take the baby steps towards your goalsand end up lying in your own self-pity.As a culture,we focus on results. We think about every risk that must be taken to reach our goals.There are few people who are excellent performers of any tasks the first time they try them. They fail and succeed. Then, they build upon theirabilities learned each time. They practice their skills and use their talentsthrough baby steps before they are ready to prove them to the whole world.So, learn to take those baby steps to reach the goals before you. Know thatyou can depend on God to show you the way. As you become more experienced, yourbaby steps become a walk, then a jump, and finally a sprint. That’ s how our baby steps lead us through the marathon of life.33.In the third paragraph, the writer expresses the view that.A.we can ’ t expect to succeed without working hard at firstB.adults should learn from babies in dealing with hard tasksC.we must make full use of our skills in order to get rewardsD.baby steps play the key role in leading us towards success34. The underlined word“ sprint” in the last paragraph probably means“” .A. slow rushB. sudden stopC. hard climbD. fast run35. What ’ s the writer’ s tone in the text?A. Light-hearted.B. Regretful.C. Encouraging.D. Concerned.第二节(共5小题;每题 2 分,满分10 分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

They jumped into the life-raft and watched the boat go under the water.For twenty days they had tins of food, biscuits, and bottles of water. They also had afishing-line and a machine to make salt water into drinking water— two things which saved their lives. They caught eight to ten fish a day and ate them raw (生的). Then the line broke. “So we had no more fish until something very strange happened. Some sharks (鲨鱼) came to feed, and the fish under the raft were afraid and came to the surf ace. I caught them with my hands.”About twenty ships passed them, but no one saw them. After fifty days at sea their life-raft was beginning to break up. Then suddenly it was all over. A fishing boat saw them and picked them up. They couldn’t stand up. So the captain carried them onto his boat and took them to Costa Rica. Their two months at sea was over.1. Bill and Simone were traveling ______ when they met some whales.A. in a life-raftB. in MiamiC. in SimonyD. in Panama2. During their days at sea, ______ saved their lives.A. tins of food and bottles of waterB. a fishing-line and a machineC. whales and sharksD. Twenty passing ships3. After their boat sank, the couple ______.A. jumped into the life-raftB. heard waterC. watched the boat go under waterD. stayed in the life-raft4.When they saw the fishing boat which later picked them up, ________.A. they were too excited to stand upB. they couldn’t wait to climb onto the boatC. their life –raft was beginning to break upD. they knew their two months at sea would be overB“He looks red.” “I am feeling blue.” “She was green.” How often have you heard these expressions? They’re actually fairly common. And they show how color relates to our emotions. Actually, color does have a physical effect on the human body. It can influence the pituitary gland (脑下垂体), which helps control hormone reduction. Hormones can affect our moods, so it makes sense that color would, too. But it can also be used to change our moods.How do colors relate to moods and emotions?Red is all about energy, but it can also indicate anger.Orange is stimulating, good for times when we just can’t seem to get started with something. It may be useful for reducing stress.Yellow is good for mental activities like reasoning and analysis. It can promote self-confidence and is helpful in situations when you need to be more optimistic.Green tends to make most people think of nature, since so much of the natural world is green. It’s about connection s—with nature, or with our fellow humans. It’s also good for general stress, since it can help balance emotions.Blue is relaxing. It can stimulate creativity. Light blue can mean quiet, and dark blue can be depressing.Purple is related to imagination. In some situations it can also be very peaceful.White is definitely about peace.But it’s also associated with purity.How can .you use colors to change your mood? Well, clothing is the most obvious choice. What you wear not only helps you feel a certain way,but also can give a strong impression about you to others—especially people you’ve never met.But you don’t have to change everything about your appearance. Sometimes a cap, a tie or a scarf, in a particular color will have the desired effect—without being too noticeable to others.5. The sentence “He looks red.” In the first paragraph means that”_____”A. He saw something with the color of red.B. He was shy and his face became red.C. He was tired of something he was doing.D. He was out of temper with somebody or something.6. Which color may be an inventor’s favorite?A. Red.B. Orange.C. Yellow.D. Blue.7. If you are stressful, what should you do to change your mood?A. Wear a red or a white shirt.B. Wear a light orange or a green tie.C. Wear a yellow or a purple scarf.D. Wear a dark blue or a dark cap.8. Which one is the best title of the text?A. How Color Affects Our EmotionsB. Which Is Your Favorite ColorC. How to Change Your MoodD. Color Affects Hormone ProductionCWhen people wanted to find their way to a place in the past, they used to have to buy a map. They don’t have to do that any more. Now they can either buy a GPS or go online and maps for just about anywhere.In this an improvement? Perhaps , but some people think some of the online companies are going too far , because they have been sending out cars with photographic equipment on their roofs , to photograph every street and house in the country.One of these cars arrived on a Wednesday morning in the quiet English village of Broughton. The camera was on a metre-high stick on top of the car and could see over walls and into people’sgardens. Some of the villagers came and stood around the car, and asked the driver and photographer to go away. Reporters quickly arrived on the scene, and soon the event was news all over the country.Of course, the online company in question says that it is simply collecting information that people on the Internet want. But the villagers feel differently. ‘We us ed to have privacy in this country—now companies just come and take photographs of our homes without even asking .’said one villager. ‘It is not right .We mustn’t let this happen. We mustn’t lose our right to live privately.’There is , of course, no law to prevent people from taking photographs of houses, so the villagers cannot go to court. But many people are asking the question: ‘OK, it’s legal, but is it right?’ This is a question that won’t go away very…9.How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed?A. By analyzing(分析)causes.B. By giving descriptions.C. By making comparisons.D. By providing explanations.10. What does the underlined phrase “going too far” in Paragraph2 mean?A. Doing a lot of work.B, Walking a long distance.C. Taking more pictures than necessary.D. Behaving in a way that upsets people.11. How do the locals in Broughton feel about the online company?A. Uncaring.B. Angry.C. Friendly.D. Thankful12. How would be the best title for the text?A. Why is GPS important?B. The improvement of mapsC. It’s legal --- but is it right?D.

APeter, a high school student, was pretty busy with school, and he was on the soccer team. High school was hard, because everyone wanted to have nice clothes, hang out, drive cars, and all these cost money. Peter’s father was the sort of guy that believed you had to earn whatever you got, so he wasn’t just about to hand over lots of money for Peter to use to have fun. So, he had to get a job.During his freshman year summer vacation, his classmate got him a job working on a hay (干草) farm. He threw hay up into wagons as the tractor drove around fields, and then they stacked (剁起) it in the hot barn. It was a hot, low paying job.He once worked a few nights a week at a grocery store. He put things on the shelf. It was a lot of lifting and carrying, and his arms were strong from this and the previous job. It was dull and didn’t pay much.He took some time off when soccer got serious, but the following summer he tried working at a lumber yard. It was hot outside, but he got a lot of exercise lifting and carrying things like boards and drywall. He also learned a lot about building supplies. It still didn’t pay well.From there, he spent a year doing some tutoring for a friend of the family, but that was piecemeal. His first real job came the last year at school, when he fixed registers and worked on computers at a big box store. It was his favorite job yet, but it still didn’t pay well.What Peter realized with all of these jobs was that he needed a better paying job! The only way to get that was to get trained or educated. He could go to school and get a 2year degree in an office or technical position. His other choices were going to a 4year college or joining the army. He wasn’t sure what he was going to do yet, but he knew he had to do something. Jobs were a lot of work, money was hard to earn, but he liked staying busy and being able to buy things. Peter wanted the most out of life, and that meant education.21. How many jobs had Peter taken?A. FiveB. FourC. ThreeD. Six22.All the jobs Peter had taken had one thing in common:________.A. They needed hard labourB. They were dull and tiresomeC. They didn’t pay wellD. They were done during his vacation23. ________was the most important for Peter if he wanted a good job.A. OpportunityB. EducationC. ConfidenceD. Wisdom24. We can learn from the text that________.A. it was very hard for Peter to make his choicesB. Peter’s father didn’t care about himC. Peter knew what to do for his futureD. Peter was determined to do whatever he likedBA jobless man applied for the position of “office boy” at Micros oft. The HR manager interviewed him and then watched him cleaning the floor as a test. “You are employed,” he said. “Give me your e-mail address and I’ll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start.”The man replied, “But I don’t have a computer, neither an e-mail.”“I’m sorry,” said the HR manager. “If you don’t have an e-mail, that means you do not exist. And who doesn’t exist cannot have the job.”The man left with no hope at all. He didn’t know what to do, with only ten dolla rs in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy 10kg tomatoes. He then sold the tomatoes from door to door. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital(资本). He repeated the operation three times, and returned home happily with 60 dollars.The man realized that he can survive in this way, and started to go every day earlier, and return late.

One day,I was playing basketball for my primary school team. When I reached down to catch a ball, my front teeth crashed against the knee of another player. That caused instant tears. Looking back now I realize how lucky I am that I didn't completely knock out both of my teeth, but at that time being left with two half-broken front teeth felt like the end of the world ! That's the funny thing about oral health: when it's good we don't think about it at all,but when it's bad itis all you can think about.Through my position with the Population Health Promotion Program I’ve been able to share my enthusiasm about oral health with the people in Southern Alberta. Our oral health team offers to examine the eyes of children aged 12 to 36 months for free. The school program us to educate the students on good oral health for children in kindergarten grades one and two.

Since the first clinic in January 2016,we’ve seen almost 300 newcomers in the South West Zone.Working closely with the refugee population,I became aware that public health services in developing countries needed to be greatly increased to meet the needs of the public. This realization excited an interest I always had to volunteer and spread my enthusiasm about oral health globally. In October of 2016,I travelled w i t h a v o l u n t e e r g r o u p,K i n d n e s s i n A c t i o n,t o Tanzania Africa. There I provided oral health education in remote areas for two weeks. The experience deepened my enthusiasm about public health and motivated me to apply for the Master of Health Studies program.29.What made the author enthusiastic about oral health?A.A sport accident.

A.The importance of improving public health globally.B.The lack of public health services in developing countries.C.The necessity of spreading oral health education worldwide.D.The meaning of joining in the Master of Health Studies program.DSome colors people see late at night could cause signs of the condition mental health experts call clinical depression(临床抑郁症). That was the finding of a study that builds on earlier study findings. They show that individuals who live or workin low levels of light overnight can develop clinical depression.Doctors use the word clinical depression to describe severe form of depression. Signs may include loss of interest or pleasure in most activities, low energy levels and thoughts of death or suicide(自杀) .In the new study, American investigators designed an experiment that exposed hamsters(仓鼠)to different colors. The researchers chose hamsters because they are nocturnal, which means they sleep during the day and are active at night. The animals were separated into four groups. One group of hamsters was kept in the dark during their night-time period. Another group was placed in front of a blue light,a third group slept in front of a white light, while a fourth was put in front ofa red light. After four weeks, the researchers noted how much sugary water the hamsters drank. They found that the most depressed animals drank the least amountof water.Randy Nelson, at Ohio State University, says animals that slept in blue and white light appeared to be the most depressed. “What we saw is that these animals did n’t show any sleep interruptions at all but they did mess up biological clock (生物钟) genes and they did show depressive sign but if they were in the dim red light, they did not.” He says there’s a lot of blue in white light. This explains why the blue light and white light hamsters appear to be more depressed than the hamsters seeing red light or darkness.33.

APeter, a high school student, was pretty busy with school, and he was on the soccer team. High school was hard, because everyone wanted to have nice clothes, hang out, drive cars, and all these cost money. Peter’s father was the sort of guy that believed you had to earn whatever you got, so he wasn’t just about to hand over lots of money for Peter to use to have fun. So, he had to get a job.During his freshman year summer vacation, his classmate got him a job working on a hay (干草) farm. He threw hay up into wagons as the tractor drove around fields, and then they stacked (剁起) it in the hot barn. It was a hot, low paying job.He once worked a few nights a week at a grocery store. He put things on the shelf. It was a lot of lifting and carrying, and his arms were strong from this and the previous job. It was dull and didn’t pay much.He took some time off when soccer got serious, but the following summer he tried working at a lumber yard. It was hot outside, but he got a lot of exercise lifting and carrying things like boards and drywall. He also learned a lot about building supplies. It still didn’t pay well.From there, he spent a year doing some tutoring for a friend of the family, but that was piecemeal. His first real job came the last year at school, when he fixed registers and worked on computers at a big box store. It was his favorite job yet, but it still didn’t pay well.What Peter realized with all of these jobs was that he needed a better paying job! The only way to get that was to get trained or educated. He could go to school and get a 2year degree in an office or technical position. His other choices were going to a 4year college or joining the army. He wasn’t sure what he was goingto do yet, but he knew he had to do something. Jobs were a lot of work, money was hard to earn, but he liked staying busy and being able to buy things. Peter wanted the most out of life, and that meant education.21. How many jobs had Peter taken?A. FiveB. FourC. ThreeD. Six22.All the jobs Peter had taken had one thing in common:________.A. They needed hard labourB. They were dull and tiresomeC. They didn’t pay wellD. They were done during his vacation23. ________was the most important for Peter if he wanted a good job.A. OpportunityB. EducationC. ConfidenceD. Wisdom24. We can learn from the text that________.A. it was very hard for Peter to make his choicesB. Peter’s father didn’t care about himC. Peter knew what to do for his futureD. Peter was determined to do whatever he likedBA jobless man applied for the position of “office boy”at Microsoft. The HR manager interviewed him and then watched him cleaning the floor as a test.“You are employed,” he said. “Give me your e-mail address and I’ll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start.”The man replied, “But I don’t have a computer, neither an e-mail.”“I’m sorry,”said the HR manager. “If you don’t have an e-mail, that means you do not exist. And who doesn’t exist cannot have the job.”The man left with no hope at all. He didn’t know what to do, with only ten dollars in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy 10kg tomatoes. He then sold the tomatoes from door to door. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital(资本). He repeated the operation three times, and returned home happily with 60 dollars.The man realized that he can survive in this way, and started to go every day earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled every day. Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.

AMark Twain, the famous American writer and a great master of humor, liked to play jokes on others. But once a joke was played on him. One day Mark Twain was invited to give a talk in a small town. At lunch he met a young man, one of his friends.The young man said that he had an uncle with him. He told Mark Twain that his uncle never laughed or smiled, and that nobody and nothing was able to make his uncle smile or laugh.“You bring your uncle to my talk this evening, ” said Mark Twain. “I’m sure I can make him laugh.”That evening the young man and his uncle sat in the front. Mark Twain began to speak. He told several funny stories and made everyone in the room laugh. But the man never even smiled. Mark Twain told more funny stories, but the old man still kept quiet. Mark Twain continued to tell his funny stories. Finally he stopped. He was tired and quite disappointed.Som e days later, Mark Twain told another friend what had happened. “Oh, ” said his friend, “I know that man. He’s been deaf for years.”21.The writer wrote the passage mainly to .A.tell readers Mark Twain liked playing jokesB.tell readers a joke played on Mark TwainC.tell readers Mark Twain was a great writerD.tell readers how to tell a funny story22.Why did Mark Twain ask the young man to bring his uncle to his talk?A.Because he thought he could make the old man laugh.B.Because he wanted to get to know the old man.C.Because the old man could tell stories.D.Because he wanted to learn from the old man.23.Mark Twain stopped finally because he was .A.disappointed B.upset C.concerned D.intelligentBBoxing day is on December 26th, the day after Christmas, and is celebrated in Great Britain and in most areas settled by the British except for the United States of America, including Canada, Australia and New Zealand.Despite its name, Boxing Day has nothing to do with competition sports. While the exact origins of the holiday are unclear, it is likely that Boxing Day began in England during the Middle Ages. Some historians say the holiday developed because servants were asked to work on Christmas Day, but took the following day off. As servants prepared to leave to visit their families, their employers would present them with gift boxes. Another theory is that the alms(捐款,救济物) boxes in churches were opened and the money was given to the poor on December 26th. Still some believe that, centuries ago, on the day after Christmas, members of the merchant(商业)class would give boxes containing food and fruit, clothing and money to businessmen and servants. The gifts were an expression of thankfulness, much like today when people receive bonuses(奖金)from their employers because of a well-done job. These gifts, given in boxes, gave the holiday its name, “Boxing Day”.Traditionally, Boxing Day is a day when families get together. It is a day of watching sports games with family. In the past, hunting was one of the favorite activities on this day. People usually went hunting for wrens or foxes. Today, Boxing Day is spent with family and friends with lots of food and sharing of friendship and love. Government buildings and small businesses are closed but the malls are open. Shopping is a popular Boxing Day activity, and the malls are usually filled with bargains. Besides these activities, many businesses, organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating their time, services and money to aid Food Banks, providing gifts for the poor, or helping an individual family that is in need. Boxing Day has mainly become an extension of the Christmas holiday, giving working families one more day as the happy time of a year. 24.On Boxing Day servants probably ________.A.took part in competition sportsB.still had to work for employersC.were allowed to visit their familiesD.were given Alms boxes by employers25.Members of the merchant class gave gift boxes to businessmen and servants to ________.A.show care and kindness to them B.thank them for doing a good jobC.provide them with enough money D.pass on the traditional love and spirit 26.What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?A.The beginning of Boxing Day. B.The hunting on Boxing Day.C.The good spirit of Boxing Day. D.The activities on Boxing Day. 27.Why is shopping popular on Boxing Day?A.Because government buildings and small businesses are closed.B.Because only malls are open on that day.C.Because things can be bought at a low price.D.Because people buy things to donate to the poor.CThis is a true story that happened in Japan. In order to renovate(翻新) the house, a Japanese tore open the walls. Japanese houses normally have an empty space between the wooden walls. When tearing down the walls, he found that there was a lizard(蜥蜴) stuck there because a nail from outside was hammered into one of its feet. He saw this, feeling pity and curious. When he checked the nail, he found it was nailed 10 years ago when the house was first built.What happened? The lizard had survived in such a position for 10 years! It has been in a dark wall partition(夹层) for 10 years without moving!Then he wondered how this lizard survived for 10 years without moving a single step—since its foot was nailed! So he stopped his work and observed the lizard: What has it been doing? What and how has it been eating? Later, he didn’t know from where another lizard appeared, with food in its mouth. Ah! He was astonished and touched deeply. The free lizard had been feeding the stuck one for the past 10 years.Such love, a beautiful love! Such love happened with this tiny creature. What can love do? It can do wonders! Just think about it: One lizard had been feeding the otherone untiringly for 10 long years, without giving up hope on its partner. If a small creature like a lizard can love like this, just imagine how we can love if we try. 28.How did the Japanese feel when seeing the stuck lizard?A.Frightened. B.Enjoyable. C.Confused. D.Usual.29.What can we learn from the free lizard?A.It teaches us never to abandon our loved ones.B.It teaches us to give more help to our loved ones.C.It tells us to take pity on the stuck lizard.D.It encourages us to live even longer.30.Why did the Japanese stop his work?A.To watch how long the lizard can still live here.B.To take out the nail and set the lizard free.C.To have a rest by watching the lizard.D.To find out why the lizard had survived here for 10 years.31.What would be the best title for the passage?A.A Wonder B.Two Lizards C.Such a Story D.Lizard LoveDAstronauts on shorter spaceship tasks often work very long days. Tasks are scheduled so tightly that break times are often used to finish the day’s work. Thi s type of schedule is far too demanding for long missions on the International Space Station (ISS). ISS crew members usually live in space for at least a quarter of a year. They work five days on and two days off to mimic the normal way they do things on Earth as much as possible. Weekends give the crew valuable time to rest and do a few hours of housework. They can communicate with family and friends by email, Internet phone and through private video conferences.While astronauts cannot go to a football game or a movie in space, there are many familiar activities that they can still enjoy. Before a mission, the family and friends of each ISS crew member put together a collection of family photos, messages, videos and reading material for the astronauts to look at when they will be floating 370 kilometers above the Earth. During their mission, the crew also receives care packages with CDs, books, magazines, photos and letters. And as from early 2010, the Internet became available on the ISS, giving astronauts the chance to do some “Web surfing”in their personal time. Besides relaxing with these more common entertainments, astronauts can simply enjoy the experience of living in space.Many astronauts say that one of the most relaxing things to do in space is to look out of the window and stare at the universe and the Earth. Both the shuttle and the ISS circle the planet several times each day, and every moment offers a new view of the Earth’s vast land mass and oceans.32. In Paragraph 1, what does the word “mimic” mean?A. admit.B. cover.C. change.D. copy.33. According to the context, which of the following best describes the families of the astronauts on the ISS?A. They are excited and fascinated.B. They are worried and upset.C. They are patient and annoyed.D. They are caring and thoughtful.34. In the last paragraph, the writer shows that astronauts __________.A. get more pleasure in space than on the EarthB. love to see the Earth from spaceC. regard space life as commonD. find living in space a bit boring and tiring35. The passage mainly discusses how astronauts ___________. .A. work for shorter missions in spaceB. spend their time in spaceC. observe the Earth from spaceD. connect with people on the Earth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。
