and promoting education and services for people in need in 1931,addams became the first american woman to win the nobel peace prize.rachel carson(1907-1964)if it weren?t for rachel carson, the environmental movement might not exist today.her popular 1962 book silent spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world?s lakes and oceans.sandra day o?connor(1930-present)when sandra day o?connor finished third in her class at stanford law school, in 1952,she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. she

them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities.no statistics show the number of grandparents like garza who are moving closer to the children and grandchildren. yet there is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing. even president obama?s mother-in-law, marian robinson, has agreed to leave chicago and into the white house to help care for her granddaughters. according to a study grandparents com. 83 percent of the people said mrs. robinson ?s decision will influence the grandparents in the american family. two-thirds believe more families will follow the example of obama?s family.“in the 1960s we were all a little wild and couldn?t get away from home far enough fsst enough to prove we could do it on our own,”says christine crosby, publisher of grate manazine for grandparents .we now realize how important family is and how important”” to be near them, especially when you?re raining children.”moving is not for everyone. almost every grandparent wants to be with his or her grandchildren and is willing to make sacrifices, but sometimes it is wiser to say no and visit frequently instead. having your grandchildren far away is hard, especially

volunteer stem courier. since march 2012, ive done 89 trips of those , 51 have beenabroad, i have 42 hours to carry stem cells(干细胞)in my little box because ive got two ice packs and thats how long they last, in all, from the time the stem cells are harvested from adonor(捐献者) to the time they can be implanted in the patient, we?ve got 72 hours at most, so i am always conscious of time.i had one trip last year where i was caught by a hurricane in america. i picked up the stem cells in providence, rhode island, and was meant to fly to washington then back to london. but when i arrived at the check-in desk at providence, the lady on the desk said:”well, i?m really sorry, i?ve got some bad news for you-there are no fights from washington.”so i took my box and put it on the des k and i said:”in this box are some stem cells that are urgently needed for a patient-please, please, you?ve got to get me back to the united kingdom.”she just dropped everything. she arranged for a flight on a smallplance to be held for me.re-routed(改道)me through newark and got me back to the uk even earlier than originally scheduled.for this courier job, you?re consciously aware than that box you?re got something that is potentially going to save somebody?s life.29.which of the following can replace the underlined word “courier” in paragraph17a providerb delivery manc collectord medical doctor30.why

longer.31.which flight did the woman put peter on first?a. to londonb. to newarkc. to providenced. to washingtondthe meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. silences may be thoughtful, or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say. a silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, or worry. silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable; therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap(间隙)with conversation. persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a persons needs.many native americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just as some traditional chinese and thai persons do. therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops, whatmaybe implied(暗示) is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing. in these cultures, silence is a call for reflection.other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. for example, russian, french, and spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic udner discussion. however, mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. in still another use, persons in asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in authority.nurses and other care-geivers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be expericencing. nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient?s silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily. a nurse who understands the healing(治愈) value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures.32. what does the author say about silence in conversations?a. it implies anger.b. it promotes friendship.c. it is culture-specific.d. it is content-based.33. which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought?a. the chinese.b. the french.【篇二:2016年湖北省高考英语第一次模拟试题及答案】p

绝密★启用前【百强校】2016届湖北荆州中学高三上第一次质检英语试卷(带解析)试卷副标题考试范围:xxx ;考试时间:87分钟;命题人:xxx学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________注意事项.1.答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息 2.请将答案正确填写在答题卡上第I 卷(选择题)一、阅读理解(题型注释)We take it for granted that with memory we can remember most of things which happened in our life. But it is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory. The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions(感知), the basis for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory.Memory can be defined as the ability to keep information available for later use. It not only includes “remembering” things lik e arithmetic(算术) or historical facts, but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile.Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers, for example, contain devices for storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory storage capacity(容量) of a computer with that of a human being. The instant access mem ory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words”—strings of试卷第2页,共11页alphabetic or numerical characters —ready for instant use. An average U.S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 1000,000 words of English. However, this is but a part of the total amount of information that the teenager has stored. Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem solving intelligence of human beings. A large part o f a person’s memory is in terms of words and combinations of words. But while language greatly expands the number and the kind of things a person can remember, it also requires a huge memory capacity. It may well be this capacity that distinguishes humans, setting them apart from other animals.1、Which of the following is true about memory?A .It helps us perceive things happening around us every day.B .It is based on the decisions we made in the past.C .It is rooted in our past habits and skills.D .It connects our past experiences with the present.2、According to the passage, memory is helpful in one’s life in the following aspects EXCEPT that________________.A .it involves a change in one’s behaviorB .it keeps information for later useC .it warns people not to do things repeatedlyD .it enables one to remember events that happened in the past3、What is the major characteristic of man’s memory capacity according to the author? A .It can be expanded by language. B .It can remember all the combined words. C .It may keep all the information in the past. D .It may change what has been stored in it.4、Human beings make themselves different from other animals by________. A .having the ability to perceive danger B .having a far greater memory capacityC .having the ability to recognize faces and places on sightD .having the ability to draw on past experiencesGenerally speaking, government regulations normally ban anything from smoking in public places to parking in certain zones. But officials in the Brazilian town of Biritiba Mirim, 70km (45miles) east of Sao Paulo, have gone far beyond that. They plan to prohibit residents from dying early because the local cemetery(墓地) has reached full capacity.There’s no more room to bury the dead, they can’t be cremated(火化) and laws forbid a new cemetery. So the mayor has proposed a strange solution: outlaw death. Mayor Roberto Pereira says the bill is meant as a protest against federal regulations that prohibit new or expanded cemeteries in preservation areas. “They have not taken local demands into consideration”, he claims.A 2003 decree(法令) by Brazil’s National Environ ment Council forbids burial grounds in protected areas. Mr. Pereira wants to build a new cemetery, but the project has been stopped because 98% of Biritiba Mirim is considered as a preservation area.Biritiba Mirim, a town of 28,000 inhabitants, not only wants to prohibit residents from passing away. The bill also calls on people to take care of their health in order to avoid death. “I haven’t got a job, nor am I healthy. And now they say I can’t die. That’s ridiculous,” Amarido do Prado, an unemployed resident said.The city council is expected to vote on the regulation next week. “Of course the bill is laughable, illegal, and will never be approved,” said Gilson Soares de Campos, an assistant of the mayor. “But can you think of a better resolution to persu ade the government to change the environmental decree that is prohibiting us from building a new cemetery?” The bill states that “offenders will be held responsible for their acts.” However, it does not say what the punishment will be.5、What is the bill to be proposed by the officials in Biritiba Mirim?A.Ban on building a new cemetery.B.Ban on parking in certain zones.C.Forbidding buried grounds in preservation.D.Prohibiting residents from dying early.6、What can we infer from the phrase “have gone far beyond that” in the first paragraph? A.The officials in Biritiba Mirim have made these regulations.B.The officials in Biritiba Mirim have been to many places around the world.C.The bill to be proposed by officials in Biritiba Mirim is much too unexpected.D.The officials in Biritiba Mirim have built too many cemeteries in their town.试卷第4页,共11页7、What’s the attitude of the mayor of Biritiba Mirim towards the federal regulations? A .He remains silent about them. B .He gives strong backing to them. C .He objects to them.D .He asks the residents for advice on them.8、Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A .The mayor of the town wants to build a new cemetery against federal regulation.B .The residents of the town sing high praise for the bill.C .No better resolution of the problems has been thought out.D .The government is going to change the environmental decree.A survey suggests that people who have dropped out from high school just earn an average of $9,000 less per year than graduates. Now a new study removes a common belief why they quit. It’s much more basic than flunking out(不及格).Society tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can’t cut it. They are lazy, and perhaps not too bright. So researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450 kids who quit school about why they left.“The vast majority actually had passing grades and they were confident that they could have graduated from high school.” John Bridgeland, the executive researcher said. About one million teens leave school each year. Only about half of African-American and Hispanic(美籍西班牙的)students will receive a diploma(证书), and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision. So, if failing grades don’t explain why these kids quit, what does? Again, John Bridgeland: “The most dependable finding was that they were bored.” “They found classes uninteresting; they weren’t inspired or motivated. They didn’t see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom to their own lives, or to their career aspir ations.”The study found that most teens who do drop out wait until they turn sixteen, which happens to be the age at which most states allow students to quit. In the U.S., only one state, New Mexico, has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high school until they graduate. Only four states: California, Tennessee, Texas and Utah, plus the District of Columbia, require school attendance until age 18, no exceptions. Jeffrey Grin, another researcher, says raising the compulsory attendance age may be one way to keep more kids in school.“As these dropouts look back, they realize they’ve made a mistake. And anything that sort of gives these people an extra push to stick it out and see it through to the end, is probably helpful measure.”New Hampshire may be the next state to raise its school attendance age to 18. But critics say that forcing the students unwilling to continue their studies to stay in school misses the point—the need for reform. It’s been called for to reinvent high school education to make it more challenging and relevant, and to ensure that kids who do stick it out receive a diploma that actually means something.9、According to researchers’ study, most high school students drop out of schoolbecause____________.A.they have failing gradesB.they are lazy and not intelligentC.they are discriminated againstD.they take no interest in classes10、According to the passage, which state has a law requiring school attendance until they graduate?A.New Hampshire.B.Utah.C.New Mexico.D.The District of Columbia.11、In the last paragraph, the writer is trying to__________.A.suggest raising the compulsory attendance ageB.analyze the reason why students quit schoolC.raise awareness of reforming high school dropoutsD.wish to make laws to guarantee no dropouts12、From the passage, we can infer the following EXCEPT that __________.A.the grades of most dropouts at school were acceptableB.dropouts’ salary is not as satisfying as graduates’C.classes don’t appeal to dropoutsD.about 500,000 high school dropouts are black and Spanish试卷第6页,共11页The king was to pass by a beggar’s small poor house and the man was excited, not because he was about to see the king but because the king was known to part with expensive jewels and huge sums of money when moved by sympathy.He saw the king’s carriage just when a kind man was filling his begging bowl with uncooked rice. Pushing the man aside, he ran into the street, shouting praises of the king and the royal family.The carriage stopped and the king beckoned to the beggar.“Who are you?” he asked. “One of the most unfortunate of your people,” said the beggar. “Poverty sits on my doorstep and follows me about like a dog. I haven’t eaten since yesterday afternoon!” “Have you nothing for your king except great sorrow?” said the ruler, p utting out his hand. “Give me something.” The beggar, astonished, carefully picked up 5 grains of rice from his bowl and laid them on the king’s outstretched palm. The king drove away. The beggar’s disappointment was great. He complained and cursed the kin g again and again for his miserliness.When he returned home in the evening he found a bag of rice on the floor. “Some generous soul has been here,” he thought and took out a handful of rice from the bag. To his astonishment, there was a small piece of gold in it. He realized then that the bag had been sent by the king. He emptied the rice on the floor, feeling sure there would be more gold pieces in it, and he was right. He found 5, one for each grain of rice he had given the king.“It is not the king who has been miserly,” thought the man, sadly. “If I had been generous and given him the whole bowl of rice, I would have been a rich man today.” 13、From the passage, we know that the king___________.A .was a kind manB .was arrogantC .was a miserly manD .was very young 14、Why did the king ask the beggar for something according to the text? A .Because he was poor than the beggar.B .Because he wanted to make the beggar even poorer.C .Because he had nothing to eat.D .Because he wanted to give something to the beggar in return.15、The real reason why the beggar got only five gold pieces is that________. A .he complained and cursed the king again and again B .the king was only generous to rich peopleC .the king wanted to punish him severelyD .he himself was miserly二、完形填空(题型注释)I wrote my first poem at the age of seven and showed it to my mother .She read and cried, “Buddy, you really wrote a beautiful poem!”Shyly but , I said yes .She poured out her . “It was nothing short of talent!”“What time will Father be home?” I asked .I could hardly wait to my work to him .I spent quite some time for his arrival.

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项(A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。
There are various reasons why cancers appear to be on the increase. For one thing, though their sufferers are to be found in all age groups, cancers are particularly likely to attack persons in their middle and advanced years. Naturally, since people live longer these years, there are more cancer sufferers than before. Again, with better methods of diagnosis (诊断), doctors can more easily recognize cancerous growths that would formerly have passed unnoticed or that would have been wrongly diagnosed. It is also believed that certain habits and conditions of modem living, including heavy smoking and the pollution of the air, may leave people living in more cancer-causing conditions than before.We all look forward to the day when a simple medical test can find cancer while it is still small. Researchers around the world are working on such a test. Most of their work deals with the examination of the blood.Researchers in Boston have found something in the blood of cancer patients that does not appear in healthy persons. The test showed which persons had cancer and which did not. It was correct more than 90 percent of the time.The researchers believe the test may be able to show cancer very clearly in its development. Cancers discovered early usually can be treated successfully.The test examines very small bits of fat in the blood called lipids (脂质). Cancers seem to change lipids although doctors do not know why. The test showed differences between the lipids of the persons with cancer and the lipids of those without cancer.The researchers say the new test could be a step to develop a simple way to check patients for cancer before the disease shows on an X-ray.1. Who will fail cancer from the study of the researchers?A. The young.B. The middle age and the older.C. The man.D. The woman.2. The underlined words "such a test" refer to________.A. the test that shows which persons have cancer and which don’t .B. the test that may be able to show cancer very early in its development,.C. a simple medical test that cannot find cancer when it is -smallD. a new test that could be a step to develop a difficult way3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Can cers have much to do with something in patients’ blood.B. People living in better conditions are most likely to be attacked by cancer.C.X-raying is the best way to determined whether a person has cancer or not.D. Cancers have nothing to do with a person’s habits and living conditions.4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. A simple way to cancerB. Cancers can be curedC. How to find cancerD. Early discovery of cancer1. B 细节题。
从第一段中的cancers are particularly likely to attack persons in their middle and advanced years可以知道癌症尤其容易在中年人和老年人的身体上发生。
2. B 词义题。
第二段中的a simple medical test can find cancer while it is still small;test与后面的such a test指的是同样的一种方法,所以这里的test指的是上句的“用最简单的方法诊断早期的癌症”。
3. A 细节题。
第三段中提到了cancer病人血液中的有些东西在健康人中没有,并且百分之九十以上的情况是这样的。
B项与D项的意思与文章第一段中的certain habits and conditions of modern living including heavy smoking and pollution of the air may leave people living in more cancer-causing conditions不符;C项内容与文章最后一段的意思不符。
4. D 主旨题。
文章在开头就交代了写作的目的,有各种不同的理由说明了为什么癌症似乎在上升,而从后面的几段我们知道科学家们正在研究一种新的早期诊断cancer的方法。

Watch out, Yahoo.There’s search engine out there with super speed and accuracy.It’s really cool.Google is the Web’s largest search engine.In just two years it has gained a reputation for surprising speed and accuracy, delivering exactly what you’re looking for in a second.The site now does this 40 million times a day – a number achieved without spending a penny on a TV or newspaper ad.Google doesn’t need them.In the past six months alone, the site has won a Webby (the online version of the Oscar)for technical excellence, set a new record for search engines by indexing a billion Web pages.Yahoo still has 10 times the audience, but Google consistently ranks first in customer satisfaction: 97% of users find what they’re looking for most or all the time.“You see people smile when they use it, like they’ve found something no one else knows about,” says Danny Sullivan, editor of an online newsletter.No one is smiling more than Larry Page, 27, and Sergey Brin, 26, who seem certain to become billionaires when the company goes public, probable sometime next year.They make a great comedy duo.When they first met as Ph.D.students, the pair say, they found each other horrible –“I still find him horrible,” adds Brin – but were driven together by a computer – science project aimed at coming up with better ways of searching the Web.The idea behind Google is that traditional search engines are stupid.They think relevance is based on repetition; if you type in a request for Tiger Woods, say, you’ll get websites listed according to how many times those words appear.Not only is this no guarantee of quality, but it’s also open to abuse.If you own a Tiger fan site and want to lead more people to it, simply type his name thousands of times in the site’s source code.1.The first paragraph serves to .A.compare two websites B.bring out the topicC.put blame on Yahoo D.give the background of the topic2.Which of the following wins greater customer satisfaction?A.Yahoo.B.Google.C.Page.D.Brin.3.It can be inferred that Page and Brin .A.work for Google B.are Tiger fansC.hated each other D.work for Yahoo【参考答案】1—3 BBA。
