Some people have travelled to Canada while others may have just heard of it. As is known to all, the Canadian red and white maple leaf flag is officially called The National Flag of Canada. The Canadian flag shows a stylized red maple leaf with 11 points on a white background, with red borders down each side. The Canadian flag is twice as long as its width. The white square containing the red maple leaf is the same width as the flag. Canada is a very large country, too. It is the second largest country in the world. By contrast, it has a very small population. There are only about 29 million people there. Most Canadians are of British or French origin, and French is an official language as well English. About 45 % of the people are of British origin, that is, they or their parents or grandparents, etc, come from Britain. Nearly 30 % are of French origin. Most of theFrench-Canadians live in the province of Quebec. Over the years people have come to live in Canada from many countries in the world. They are mostly from European countries and also from China, as well as other Asian countries.However, Canada was not an empty country when the Europeans began to arrive.Canadian-Indian lived along the coast, by the rivers and lakes and in forests. Today there are only 350,000 Canadian-Indians in the whole country, with their own language. In the far north live the Intuits.There are only 27, 000 Canadian-Intuits. Their life is hard in such a harsh climate.21. What is the population of Quebec?A. More than 29, 000.000B. About 30% of the total population.C. Over 45% of the total populationD. Less than 30% of the French-Canadians.22. Which of the following stands for Canada?23. Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?A. The Canadian flag I twice as wide as its length.B. Most Indians are now forced to live along the coast.C. Nowadays Inuit still have difficult living conditions.D. Nobody existed when the Europeans began to arrive in Canada.BThe greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman's life spent in caring for the children. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably havebeen in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, four or five of whom lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman's youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five years and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has to take care of children, her work is lightened by modern living conditions.This important change in women's life-patterns has only recently begun to have its full effect on women's economic position. Even a few years ago most girls took a full-time job after they left school. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school- leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women usually marry older, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Many more afterwards return to full-or-part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them.24. At what age did most women marry around the 1890 according to the passage?A. At about twenty-fiveB. In their earl fiftiesC. At the age of fifteenD. At any age from fifteen to forty-five25. What happened to an ordinary family in about 1900?A. The youngest child could live to fifteen.B. Four of five children died after they were five.C. Seven or eight children lived to be more than five.D. Some children died when they were very young.26. When she was over fifty, a late nineteenth-century mother ______.A. was usually expected to die fairly soonB. would expect to work until she diedC. would be healthy enough to take up paid jobsD. was less like to find a job even if she wanted to27. What do we know from the passage?A. Husbands and wives share equal responsibilities at home.B. More and more women are looked down upon by husbands.C. Today women prefer to get married rather than get jobs.D. A husband plays a greater part in looking after the children.CThe adder（蝰蛇）is the only poisonous snake native to Britain. Adders have the most highly developed poison injecting mechanism of all snakes, but they are not aggressive animals. Adders will only use their poison as a last means of defense, usually if caught or trodden on. No one has died from adder bites in Britain for over 20 years. By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder. In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but it prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including highlands. In Ireland，there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as a fatal misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so it follows the tall snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and are far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the way as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites in Britain ,and thought these bites can make some people very ill, and there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.28. What does the underlined phrase “trodden on” probably mean?A. Found outB. Heard fromC. Stepped on.D. Robbed of.29. Where are adders to be found?A. In fertile fields in Scotland.B. On wild land throughout Britain.C. In many parts of Britain and Ireland.D. Everywhere in Britain except Scotland30. What should you do if you are with someone who is bitten by an adder?A. Catch the biting adder at once.B. Don’t worry about the bitten person.C. Don’t try to treat the bite by yourself.D. Operate on the person as soon as possible.31. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Poisonous SnakesB. Adders in BritainC. Take Care of Sake BitesD. Protect Endangered AddersDMany children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance (pocket money). The purpose is to let children learn from experiences at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly.The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Timing is another consideration. Some children get a weekly allowance. Others get a monthly allowance.In any case, parents should make clear what, if anything, the child is expected to pay for with the money. At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget (预算). Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance. The object is to show young people that a budget demands a choice between spending and saving. Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs, like clothing or electronics.Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life. Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money. Theycan share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it.Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice. You have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their allowances can also open the door to future saving and investing. Many banks offer services to help children and teenagers learn about personal finance. A saving account is an excellent way to learn about the power of compound interest.Compounding works by paying interest. So, for example, one dollar invested at two percent interest for two years will earn two cents in the first year. The second year, the money will earn two percent of one dollar and two cents, and so on. That may not seem like a lot, but over time it adds up.32. Parents give their children allowances in order to _____.A. show off their wealth of familyB. let them make more moneyC. learn the value of moneyD. help children manage family finance33. What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. The time to give allowances.B. The way to spend allowances.C. the amount of allowances given to children.D. Considerations taken to give allowances.34. Why are parents advised to offer young children allowances strictly as planned?A. To help children learn to make a budget.B. To have children save money for larger costs.C. To let children make fewer mistakes.D. To give them more allowances next time.35. What does the author intend to tell the readers?A. The methods of limiting allowances.B. The advice on a better family budget.C. Teaching children to use allowances wisely.D. Offering allowances to children properly.第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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。

山西省太原五中2014届高三2月月考英语试题 Word版含答案

第一节（共15小题，每小题3分，满分45分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并将答案填在答题卡上。

AThe Man of Many Secrets — Harry Houdini — was one of the greatest American entertainers in the theater this century. He was a man famous for his escapes — from prison cells, from wooden boxes floating in rivers, from locked tanks full of water. He appeared in theaters all over Europe and America. Crowds came to see the great Houdini and his ―magic‖ tricks.Of course, his secret was not magic or supernatural powers. It was simply strength. He had the ability to move his toes as well as he moved his fingers. He could move his body into almost any position he wanted.Houdini started working in the entertainment world when he was 17, in 1891. He and his brother Theo performed card tricks in club in New Y ork. They called themselves the Houdini Brothers. When Harry married in 1894, he and his wife Bess worked together as magician and assistant. But for a long time they were not very successful. Then Harry performed his first prison escape, in Chicago in 1898. Harry persuaded a detective to let him try to escape from the prison, and he invited the local newspapermen to watch.It was the publicity that came from this that started Harry Houdini’s success. Harry had fingers trained to escape from handcuffs and toes trained to escape ankle chins. But his biggest secret was how he unlocked the prison doors. Every time he went into the prison cell, Bess gave him a kiss for good luck — and a small skeleton key, which is a key that fits many locks, pass quickly from her mouth to his.Harry used these prison escapes to build his fame. He arranged to escape from the local prison of every town he visited. In the afternoon, the people of the town would read about it in their local newspapers, and in the evening every seat in the local theater would be full. What was the result? World-wide fame and a name remembered today.21. According to the passage, Houdini’s success in prison escapes depends on _______.A. his special tricks and supernatural powersB. his unusual ability and a skeleton keyC. his magic tricks and unhuman powersD. his wisdom and magic tricks22. In the fourth paragraph, the underlined word ―this‖ refers to _______.A. his first prison escapeB. the year 1898C. the publicityD. H arry Houdini’s success23. From the passage we can infer that Houdini became famous _______.A. in 1894B. before he marriedC. at the age of 17D. when he was about 2424. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Skeleton KeyB. A Man of Many SecretsC. World-wide FameD. Great EscapeThe time of year a baby is born can shape what profession they will embark on in later life, a new study has suggested. Being born in a certain month appears to indicate the possibility of what job a person will end up with, the study by the Office for National Statistics found.Researchers have uncovered that the month in which babies are born could also affect everything from intelligence to length of life. A child born in December is more likely to become a dentist while someone whose birthday falls in January will tend to a debt collector, they found.A February birth appears to increase the chances of being an artist while March babies appear to go on to become pilots. Meanwhile, April and May are said to have a fairly even spread of professions, births in the summer months mean a much lower chance of becoming a high-earning football player, doctor or dentist. The study was gained by researchers who analyzed the birth months of people in 19 separate occupations using information from the last census (人口普查), the Daily Mail reported. Although these trends may be difficult to explain, relations between birth months and specific health problems have a scientific basis.Spri ng babies are at greater risk of illnesses including schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, asthma and autism. They may also be less clever than classmates born in other parts of the year.25. What does the underlined phrase ―embark on‖ refer to?A. land onB. keep in touch withC. be engaged inD. break from26. According to the researchers, a child born in March is likely to become_______.A. a debt collectorB. a pilotC. a dentistD. an artist27. We can learn from the text that______.A. the month babies are born could only affect his intelligence and length of lifeB. People born in the summer months are more likely to get highly paidC. Spring babies may have the bigger chance to get illD. the choice of profession for April and May is very narrow28. What can be included from the passage?A. There exist connections between birth date and occupationsB. The fate has been already decided when people are bornC. People born in Autumn would be more successful than those born in SpringD. The time of year one is born decides which specific health problems one hasCIt is part book, part film, part game—and a world away from the best-selling books in any season. But Julian McCrea, developer of the immersive(拟真的) iPad thriller The Craftsman, is convinced his mashup (混搭) of literary gothic and cinematic chiller(恐怖电影或书籍) is the future of fiction.The app turns the reader into the main character in a tale that draws on influences such as Edgar Allen Poe and Alfred Hitchcock. In future works, McCrea hopes to use the iPad’s built-in camera to read your facial expressions, letting him increase the tension accordingly as the story develops.With sales of paper books declining, McCrea believes the app represents a new kind of digital storytelling that could open up an Alice in Wonderland rabbit hole of possibilities.―No two people will get the same experience,‖ says McCrea, who gave up his previous jobthree years ago to start Portal Entertainment.The project has echoes of the ―choose your own adventure‖ paperbacks of the 1980s and 90s, which allowed pre-teen readers to plot their own way through treasure islands and spooky forests. But the creators of the new app wanted to take the idea further.―Y ou,‖ as a fully paid-up character in the drama, can sign online petitions (请愿书) on factious （虚构的）websites and receive mysterious message on your mobile phone from other characters, while the events you attend in the story pop up in your real-life calendar, as the app’s creators attempt to ―bleed‖ the story into your everyday life.With the story unfolding in short episodes over five days McCrea hopes to capture an audience of thirtysomething dads used to whipping out their phone to play Angry Birds when they have a spare five minutes. But also in his sights is the £87 million British market for thrillers and crime novels.Authors embrace the new form of digital storytelling as a chance to engage in the innovations of the publishing industry. Mike Jones, the novelist who led the writers’ team for The Craftsman, says the appeal of the app project was the chance to bring some of the ―age-old traditions of storytelling –genre, character and catharsis（情感的抒发）‖— into new media. ―There has never been a better time to be a storyteller.‖29. The Craftsman is ____________.A. an immersive iPad thrillerB. an app that can read our facial expressionsC. the sample of the future booksD. a combination of literary work and fiction30. How can the app users engage in the thriller The Craftsman?A. They can be turned into the main character in the tale while reading.B. They can experience in the real life the events that happened in the tale.C. They can contribute their ideas to the writers on how the tale continues.D. They can decide the ending of the tale.31. What kind of readers does the app intend to target?A. Y oung dads in their thirties.B. Thriller and crime novel lovers.C. Both A and B.D. Neither A nor B.32. What is the attitude of authors towards the new way of storytelling?A. Opposed.B. Neutral.C. Skeptical.D. Supportive.DWe eat what our friends eat, according to a new study presented at the Agricultural and Applied Economic Association’s 2013 annual meeting in Washington, D.C.The study, conducted by researchers from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (U of I) and Oklahoma State University, provided fresh confirmation of how much our environment influences our eating habits. The scientific team analyzed the lunch receipts from a restaurant in Stillwater, Oklahoma that agreed to use three menus designed by the researchers for three months in 2010. One group of diners — the control group —used the restaurant’s original menus with item and price listings. The second group received menus with calorie counts and the third group used menus that had both calorie counts and a traffic light symbol designed to indicate calorie ranges. A green traffic light meant a food option was 400 calories or less, a yellow light indicated 401 calor iesto 800 calories and a red light was placed next to choices with more than 800 calories.By analyzing diners’ receipts, the researchers found interesting patterns in what patrons（老主顾）ordered. They also interviewed servers and found that people who were part of larger parties and received menus with traffic lights typically ordered healthier options, which the researchers say suggests the influence of peer pressure.The researchers then created a model to assess how customers felt about their choices. Based on the popularity of menu items, the researchers determined the probability that individuals were satisfied with their choice. Interestingly, this gauge（测量标准）of satisfaction was influenced by expected factors such as price and calories, but also by fell ow diners’ menu choices as well. They found that even if a customer initially felt less satisfied about their choice of say, a salad, they felt better about it if their friends ordered an item within the same menu category.“The big takeaway from this research is that people were happier if they were making similar choices to those sitting around them,‖ study author Brenna Ellison, an economist at the U of I, said in a statement. ―If my peers are ordering higher-calorie items or spending more money, then I am also happier, or at least less unhappy, if I order higher-calorie foods and spend more money.‖ So if you’re hoping to eat better, try dining with friends who do too.33. The scientific team came to their conclusion by ________.A. analyzing receipts from diners using specially designed menus.B. studying information from the receiptsC. comparing calorie counts and ranges that appear in different menusD. analyzing the connection between diner’s choices and calorie counts34. According to the research findings, those who ordered healthier options tended to ______.A. ask the servers for recommendations and notice the calorie countsB. eat with friends and be concerned about calorie ranges of the foodC. be more affected by their friends’ preference of the choice of foodD. have a much unhealthier eating habit when they ate alone35. The word ―takeaway‖ is closest in meaning to ________.A. conclusionB. successC. illustrationD. judgment第二节（共5小题，每小题3分，满分15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。

But when college officials always gave the same answer ?"That's not a problem here．"—Mahoney began to feel uneasy．"No crime whatever?" comments Mahoney today．"I just don't believe it．" Nor should he in 2007 the U．S．Department of Education had reports of nearly 400, 000 serious crimes on or around our campuses．"Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to colleges, " says David Nichols, author of Creating a Safe Campus．"Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation．"But getting accurate information isn't easy．Colleges must report crime statistics （统计数字） by law, but some hold back for fear of bad publicity, leaving the honest ones looking dangerous．"The truth may not always be obvious," warns S．Daniel Carter of Security on Campus, Inc．, the nation's leading campus safety watchdog group．To help concerned parents．Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out major crime issues and effective solutions．72．The Mahoneys visited quite a few colleges last August ______．A．to express the opinions of many parentsB．to choose a right one for their daughterC．to check the cost of college educationD．to find a right one near a large city73．It is often difficult to get correct information on campus crime because some colleges______．A．receive too many visitors B．mirror the rest of the nationC．hide the truth of campus crime D．have too many watchdog groups74．We learn from the text that "the honest ones" in the fourth paragraph most probably refers to colleges ______．A．that are protected by campus security B．that report campus crimes by lawC．that are free from campuscrime D．they enjoy very good publicity75．What is the text mainly about?A．Exact campus crime statistics． B．Crimes on or around campuses．C．Effective solutions to campus crime． D．Concerns about kids' campus safety．第二卷（共35分）注意事项：1．第二卷共2页，用钢笔或圆珠笔直接答在试卷上，注意答题格式。

AMeeting people from another culture can be difficult. From th e beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may p ay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to d evelop a relationship.Different cultures emphasize (强调) the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possibl e until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, i t is necessary to spend a lot of time in "small talk", usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countr ies -- like the UK or -- people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship a t restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in . I had expected my speech to be a succes s and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomforta ble silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. Af ter getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meanin g mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too m any words are unnecessary.Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures shar e similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to busin ess more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions m ore quickly.People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. How ever, if we can understand them better, a multicultural (多元文化) environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn fro m each other.1. The author mentions his experience in to show that _______ __.A. the English prefer to make long speechesB. even talk and silence can be culturally differentC. people from are quiet and shy by natureD. too many words are of no use2. According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better?A. By recognizing different values.B. By sharing different ways of life.C. By accepting different habits.D. By speaking each oth er' s languages.3. What would be the best title for the text?A. Multicultural Environment.B. How to Understand Each Other.C. Cross-Cultural Differences. D. How to Build Up a Relationship.B When the six very best students from different cities in Guan gdong Province all together chose universities in Hong Kong; w hen the very best students of Beijing picked up HK University w hile giving up the nearby Beijing or Qinghua University; when th e highest enrollment(录取) rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48:1, it’s the high time to ask where the real education heaven f or students in is.Years ago, the answer certainly would be “Beijing or ”. But n ow no one could give the exact reaction without hesitation. Theonly sure thing is that HK universities have gradually showed a n unusual attraction to a great many mainland students.It’s no doubt to call this HK craze (狂热), which is even out of the expectation of those HK universitie s themselves.How can HK universities shake the steady foundations of an d Qinghua and attract so many mainland students?First, Hong Kong universities offer large-amount scholarship, especially for the top students who can rec eive the sum scholarship as much as 400,000 HK dollars. Since higher education has become a kind of heavy burden (负担) of many families, it’s easy to understand why the reaction to the generous offering of HK universities is great.Second, most HK universities receive professors and student s from all over the world and carry out bilingual (双语) education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is an other attraction for mainland students.Furthermore, university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as exchange students.Can mainland top universities like Beijing or be calm as bef ore when facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will they take relevant measures to win back the top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation (名誉)? Time will explain it.The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a g ood thing for an entire improvement of education in . After the a wakening and action-taking of mainland universities, they can perform better together with HK universities.At least, it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees (学费) are among students’ top concern when they are choosing u niversities. It’s time to move.4. Top students from mainland apply for HK universities becaus e________.A. they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing uni versitiesB. Beijing University has lost its worldwide reputationC. many students now would love to study abroad to get a bette r experienceD. HK Universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further study5. From the passage we can see HK universities________.A. didn’t mean to enroll top students from mainlandB. didn’t expect their enrollment of mainland students would b e so popularC. have strict enrollment rules and only 1out of 48 students can get the chance to study thereD. are proud of their teaching staff and facilities6. What is the author’s attitude toward the competition brought by HK universities?A. Universities both in mainland and in HK would get an entire improvement during the competition.B. The government should take relevant measures to stop this unfair competition.C. It may probably cause a complete loss to both sides in the end.D. Mainland universities had better lower their tuition fees and win back the top students.7. What is the passage mainly talking about?A. Higher education in Hong Kong.B. The competition between HK University and .C. Some thoughts brought by the enrollment of HK universities.D. The fall of mainland universities.第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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。

2014届各区二模英语试卷阅读理解（D篇14套）

2014届各区二模英语试卷阅读理解（D篇14套）

2014届各区⼆模英语试卷阅读理解（D篇14套）Uniforms, used for identifying people, are seen almost everywhere in the world. They are a part of everyday life. Let?s look at some of the reasons why people wear uniforms and the types of people that wear uniforms.Many children have to wear a uniform at school. Boys and girls must wear the same coloured clothes and a school tie. There is often a school badge on the jacket or shirt. There are many reasons for having a school uniform. Firstly, the uniform shows that the children attend the same school. It is important for children to feel they belong to a school and that they identify with their school. Secondly, the uniform makes it easy for other people to tell which school they go to and the children are proud of their school. Thirdly, school uniforms are comfortable, smart clothing. Finally, it is cheaper for parents to buy one set of clothes for their child. Most parents cannot afford to buy lots of expensive, fashionable clothes for their children.It is not only children who wear uniforms. Think about police officers, bus drivers, security guards, chefs, waiter, and bank clerks. They all wear special clothes for their jobs. These clothes are comfortable and practical for their daily work. Their uniforms also allow the public to recognize them at once.Many other people wear uniforms too. A business person usually wears a dark suit, a white shirt, a tie, and carries a briefcase to the office. A builder wears jeans, strong shoes and a T-shirt. The clothes a person wears tell other people the kind of job the person does.Go to a shopping mall at the weekend. You will see groups of teenagers wearing blue jeans, colourful T-shirts and baseball caps. These clothes say, …We are young and free. We do not need to work.? But they are all wearing the same clothes as part of the same group. Although they may not like the uniform they have to wear at school, they like to have a group identity. At the weekend, they have a group identity by wearing the same styles of clothes as their friends. This is also a uniform -----the uniform of youth.Clothes communicate many things about the wearers: their jobs, their social groups, even their attitudes. What do you want to tell people through the clothes you wear?1. Are children the only people who wear uniforms?________,_____________________________________________________________.2. Why are children on their best behaviour when they wear their school uniforms?_________ ___________________________________________________________.3. Why do police officers wear uniforms?_____________________________________________________________________.4. Can you describe a teenager?s weekend ?uniform??_____________________________________________________________________.5. What do teenagers? clothes tell you about them?_____________________________________________________________________.6. What do you want to tell people through the clothes you wear?_____________________________________________________________________.Key:1.No, they aren’t. / No, adults wear uniforms, too.2. Because people know which school they can go to / and the children are proud of their school._3. Because they wear uniforms so that people can recognize them. / These clothes are comfortable and practical for their daily work. / because they think people can recognize them easily.4. (Their weekend “uniform” is ) a pair of jeans, as colourful T-shirt and a basketball cap.5. They tell us that) they are young and free. / that they don’t need to work / that they are all part of the same group.6. I want to tell people that I am a shiny, healthy and active young boy through the clothes I wear._He felt strange when he went back to his college in Oxford. He had left the college 25 years before, and he had never been back. As he walked up from station, he slowly began to feel the same excitement that he had felt when first went there as an 18-year-old boy. When he received the email inviting him to the reunion (重聚) for the people of his year at college, he had felt only happy and excited. Now, as he got nearer to the college, he was nervous, yes, definitely nervous. Perhaps his classmates had all been more successful than him, or at least earned more money than him.He was happy in his job as a university lecturer, but the others were probably all lawyers, accountants and cankers. Who would be there at the reunion? He wondered. He was proud that he had studied there and glad to be back, but at the same time sad that the college was no longer part of his life, sad that he couldn?t bring back those days which meant so much to him.The porter gave him a key to a room in the college. He couldn?t believe it. It was his old room. As he walked through the door, he was surprised to feel a tear rolling down his checks. He had never thought he would feel like this. He tried to remind himself that his times there had not always been happy, that there had been problems too. I t was almost time for dinner, so he put on his black dinner jacket and bow tie and walked down to the dining hall, wondering if any of his old friends would be there.He walked into the dining hall, and there she was. She had changed a little. The smile which had made him fall in love with her was still the same. But she was sitting with the man she had chosen to marry, the man she had chosen to marry instead of him. He had thought the pain had gone, but it hit him in the stomach like a boxer?s punch. Was it wrong for him to have come back? Or should he …?1. How old was the writer when he went to college?__________________________________________________________________________2. How did he feel when he received the email inviting him to his college reunion?____________________________________________________________________________3. Why did he feel sad on his way to his college?____________________________________________________________________________4. The old room made him think of happy and sad times in the college, didn’t it?____________________________________________________________________________5. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?____________________________________________________________________________6. Please finish the last question.____________________________________________________________________________Key:1. 18 / Eighteen years old.2. Happy and excited.3. Because the college was no longer part of his life / he couldn’t bring back those days whichmeant so much to him.4. Yes, it did.5 .”The pain.”6. Should he come here with his wife? / Should he talk with them?Happiness is a feeling that lights up your eyes, makes your steps light and makes you want to sing for no reason. Everyone wants to be happy. But sometimes, a guest comes in without invitation. It?s unhappiness. Don?t let it get you down. Send it away.When you are happy, the world feels like a better place. As the saying goes: When you smile, the world smiles with you; when you cry, you cry alone. Wearing a smile makes you more charming(迷⼈的)and helps you to win lots of friends. A goodmood（⼼情）always gives you hope, which makes trouble and problems easier to handle.No matter how happy you are, it?s normal to feel angry, sad or gloomy once in a while. Life is full of ups and downs. We can? t change the way life is, but we can do our best to change a bad situation into a good one. To help us do this, it?s good to know some of the factors（因素）that influence happiness.One of the biggest factors is social relationships. People who are close to family and friends are happier than people who don?t have those r elationships. Talking and sharing is a good way to relax and build confidence. Knowing someone is there for you will make you braver and more outgoing.Another factor is work or school. If you enjoy school, even if you have lots of homework or extra classes, you will feel that your school life is meaningful and happy. But if you hate school, your negative attitude（消极的态度）may cause you to feel bored and upset that you hate to do so much work.A third factor is your attitude towards life. How do you feel if you fail in an exam? Maybe you think it?s unfair because you always study and should have got a good mark. You can?t stop blaming（责备）yourself. Or, maybe you accept it. You go through the paper carefully, find out why you made stupid mistakes, and tell your self, “Take it easy! I?ll do better next time!”Your attitude makes a big difference.Do you smile a lot or wear a long face most of the time?1. Happiness is a feeling, isn?t it?____________, _____________________________________________________________.2. What makes you more charming and gives you hope?____________________________________________________________________________3.

He was a great TVnews reporter. When he was reporting in Rwanda, one heartbreaking momentmade a deep impression on me. When the camera showed all of the children whowere dying, suffered from terrible diseases, Jim ended his piece by saying thatwhen he got home, the first thing he was going to do was to put his arms aroundhis own children. Then I realized that he was diff erent, that he didn?t fall into anyof the modern television-news tricks, that he was not giving us any awful,artificial (假的) television-journalist reports out of（出于) pity. Instead, I waswatching a real reporter with a gift (天赋) for both words and slight differences.Then I read his book, We Are All the Same, about his friendship with Xolani Nkosi, a South African boy who became the international spokesman for AIDS (艾滋病). It is about the friendship between Wooten and a black child who was ten years old and already dying of AIDS. It is also a book about a great teacher and his student. But the teacher－the one with real wisdom and understanding about life－is the little boy, not the journalist. And, finally, it?s about a love story of Gail Johnson, Nkosi?s white mother who does her best to save the boy, and their love for each other. When reading the book, I felt touched from time to time.1. How did Jim Wooten feel when he saw the dying children in Rwanda?___________________________________________________________________.2.

He held a sign which said, "I am blind, please help me."There were only a few coins in the hat. A man was walking by. He took out a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words on it. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by could see the words.Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, "Are you the one who changed my sign in the morning? What did you write?"The man said, "I only wrote the truth. I said what you said, but in a different way."What he had written was, "Today is a beautiful day, but I cannot see it."Do you think the first sign and second sign were saying the same thing?Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat. The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the beauty of the day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind.The first sign simply said the boy was blind, while the second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. There are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story.The first is: Treasure (珍惜) what you have. Someone else has less.

It took a while, but one day he half-smiled back.After a while, he started smiling real smiles and then talked to her. She said he always offers her an apple now, and is always very kind.“An invisible smile?” questioned Janet.“Yes,” answered Amy, “My grandma told me that if I pretended I wasn?t afraid and pretended he was smiling an invisible smile at me and I smiled back at him, sooner or later he would really smile.”If we remember that everyone wears an invisible smile, we too will find t hat most people can?t resist our smile after a while.It?s so easy to get caught up in everyday life that we forget how simply we can bring cheer to ourselves and others.

When the films are not on at the cinema, I like to watch all the fashionable people down at the beach. Everywhere you look, there are famous film stars and directors. I saw three of my favourite stars walking around the festival yesterday. I was too nervous to talk to them, though.I did not realize that this festival was so old. It was first held in 1946. At this year?s festival, around twenty films are competing for the main prize, the Palme d’Or (⾦棕榈奖) . The films are from all around the world—Europe, Asia, North America, Africa…Some of the people who choose the winner this year are also great actors and directors.There are a lot of excellent Hollywood films as well, though they are not considered for prizes. There are so many different types of films, and lots of them are from countries which are not famous for the film-making business. For someone who loves films like me, this is Heaven!。
