江苏省仪征中学高考英语一模试卷分类汇编任务型阅读(及答案)
江苏省仪征中学高考英语一模试卷分类汇编任务型阅读(及答案)一、高中英语任务型阅读1．请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格里填上一个最恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填1个单词。
Asthma(哮喘) is a long-lasting breathing disease that affects millions of Americans, many of whom are children. People who get asthma will suffer from lack of breath, difficulty in breathing or coughing--which are caused by the tightening of the muscles in airways. Untreated asthma can lead to poor lung function and death, but asthma can also be effectively controlled with proper treatments.Research is discovering genes that contribute to the development of asthma. This development has pointed researchers to the role of indoor and outdoor pollution as environmental factors that contribute to the increased occurrence of asthma.The Indoor PollutionIndoor pollution has increased with the developments in building materials and in heating and air conditioning systems. In addition to poisonous gases that come from paint, other materials like dust and perfumes used in household products such as washing powder are recycled continuously through the house, winter and summer.Unlike the days before central heating or before whole-house air conditioning, these materials and chemicals cannot get out of modern homes. Most often, they cause breathing problems in the members of the family with the least-developed autoimmune(自身免疫的) systems. Proper venting (通风) and use of environmentally-friendly building materials and carpeting can help reduce the presence of these chemicals.The Out door pollutionResearchers have also established outdoor pollution's role as a probable cause of asthma. Asthma has been proven to result from some fuel products. Smog and the small matters carried by it have been recognized as a factor which leads to asthma since the 19th century when London saw more and more diseases in the industrial population. Industrial pollutants and other chemicals which are produced in water treatment and open treated water like that found in the swimming pools also contribute to increased cases of asthma as well as other illnesses.Those most affected by the increase of industrial and environmental pollution are children. Although much has been done to control the levels of pollution in the US, there still remains much to do as it is a worldwide phenomenon. Until an international effort can be made to limit carbon emissions, the occurrence of environmental asthma will probably continue to increase.／results／effects；Factors；caused/ increased；Besides；remain/ stay；increased/ increasing；harmful；prevented/stopped/ kept/ away/ free/ freed【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，分析了哮喘产生的原因，从室内污染和室外污染两个方面来进行阐述。

The funny thing is, this is 36 most of us do at one time or another---and some of us do pretty 37 .It’s surely a practice for a 38 in self-confidence and for unhappiness. Let’s say I take a look at someone who creates 39 artwork on their website and I look at my art, and realize I don’t come 40 to being matched with him. In fact, I look pretty pitiful. But it’s not a fair 41 . If I looked at my strengths---writing useful and honest posts---I can see that I have a lot to offer, a lot to be happy about.That’s so important---being able to look at your own strengths, and see your true 42 . It’s actually one of the 43 to success and happiness.I want to talk about this issue 44 an email from a reader recently: I have some teammates from ver y rich families. I can’t stop myself comparing my lifestyle with 45 . I must say that my 46 planning is sound enough to take care of my existing family; and I can take care of new family member also, at least for 47 even if I lose my current job. But 48 I see or hear them spending so much money after possessions, I start comparing 49 . How can I stop this habit, without changing jobs?This is an excellent but tough 50 . I think it’s 51 to compare ourselves to others, but it often makes us unhappy even if we have enough and 52 be happy with what we have. My quick advice: try to be aware of when you start comparing yourself to others…once you’ve developed this 53 , stop yourself and tell yourself, “Stop that!” And then 54 thinking about all the things you do have, the things you love, the people you have and the blessings that 55 has given you.

On the first try, most of the young Germans try to be first, while a few are too shy to join in, but by the fifth time round, they develop a rhythm (节奏). The message: give other people space but also confidently claim your own. This is a requirement for social well-being.The Willy Hellpach School in Heidelberg is the first in the nation to develop a happiness course. It is intended for students preparing for university entrance exams.“The course isn’t there to make you happy,” Ernst Fritz-Schubert, the school principal, warned pupils, “but rather to help you discover the ways to become happy.”Cooking a meal together is one of the class exercises. Improving body language under the guidance of two professional actresses is another.The course is taught for three periods a week. Despite the happy subject, the pupils themselves insist it is no laughing matter.“In the first period, we had each say something positive about another member of the class and about ourselves. No laughing at people,” said Fanny, 17.Research by the school shows it is not the first to start happiness classes: they also exist at some US universities, mainly based on positive thinking, using findings from studies of depression.56. What’s the purpose of this passage?A. To introduce the happiness course.B. To describe all the traditional courses.C. To arouse the readers’ interest in happiness.D. To help students struggle against being sad.57. The game intended for the students in the 2nd paragraph mainly to .A. try their best to get opportunities for themselvesB. practice how to speak in front ofpeopleC. confidently speak out one’s opinionsD. equip them with required social skills58.

Tours after 5:30 pm cannot be available without any exception.D. A group can book a free tour to the museum on the Internet.CFor many people the most exciting development in recent years is Picture phone service. Picture phone service, which appeared on market in the 1970s, was at first probably used by large business corporations. But as Picture phone service becomes available, it will no doubt spread from the office to the home. It is already clear that "the next best thing to be there" is going to be a Picture phone call.Possibly the most significant research now being conducted is in the use of the laser beam(激光束）in telephone communications. This "new light", first produced by scientists in 1960, can beam continuously and with extraordinary intensity. Instead of using light to see by, telephones researchers are thinking of ways to use light to communicate by. In other words, they are thinking of using light for the same purpose. Radio waves are now used --- to retransmit telephone calls, television programs, and data messages from one point to another. With the expansion of Picture phone service and high-speed data communications between computers, present message-carrying capacities may soon become too small. If it turns out to be technically and economically sound, the laser might prove to be a major breakthrough in the telephone communications.Current research in telephone communications is so extensive and changes are coming about so rapidly that no one can predict with accuracy what can be made with assurance; there will be more and more telephones in the future, and they will be better ones.63. Picture phone service __A. was not available in the 1970'sB. was not used in business corporationsC. will be used in homesD. have not been turned into realities64. Why is the research on the use of the laser beam in telephone communications being conducted?A. Because the laser beam was first produced in 1960.B. Because the laser beam can beam continuously and without extraordinary intensity..C. Because telephone researchers are trying to use light just like radio waves.D. Because laser is widely used in the world.65. What may turn out to be a problem according to the second paragraph?A. The expansion of Picture phones.B. The communications between computers.C. The research on the laser beam.D. The message-carrying capacities.66. According to the writer, the laser beam may bring aboutA. a revolution in telephone communicationsB. the invention of Picture phonesC. the reduction of radio waves in the worldD. the increase of the television programDIn all one’s lifetime it is oneself that one spends the most time being with or dealing with. But it is exactly oneself that one has the least understanding of.When you are going upwards in life you tend to overestimate yourself. It seems that everything you seek for is within your reach. When you are going downhill you tend to underestimate yourself, mistaking difficulties for your own incompetence.To get a thorough understanding of oneself is to gain a correct view of oneself---aware of both one’s s trengths and shortages. You may look forward hopefully to the future but be sure not to expect too much, for ideals can never be fully realized. You may be courageous to meet challenges but it should be clear to you where to direct your efforts. That’s to say so long as you have a perfect knowledge of yourself there won’t be difficulties you can’t overcome.To get a thorough understanding of oneself needs self-appreciation. Whether you think you are a towering tree or a blade of grass, a high mountain or a small stone, you represent a state of nature that has its own value. If you earnestly admire yourself you’ll have a real sense of self-appreciation, which will give you confidence. As soon as you gain full confidence in yourself, you’ll be enabled to fight and overcome any adversity.To get a thorough understanding of oneself also requires doing oneself a favor when it’s needed. In time of sadness, do yourself a favor by sharing it with your friends so as to change a gloomy mood into a cheerful one; in time of tiredness, do yourself a favor by getting a good sleep. As you are aware, what a person physically has is but a human body that’s vulnerable when exposed to the elements. So if you fall ill, it’s up to you to take a good care of yourself.In a word, t o get a thorough understanding of oneself is to get a full control of one’s life. Then one will find one’s life full of color and flavor.67. What is described in Paragraph 2 is to show that ______.A. A person is easy to estimate himself too high when succeedingB. It is difficult for one to have a perfect knowledge of oneselfC. You should keep up high spirits whatever difficulties you meetD. It is essential that a person get a thorough understanding of himself68. Remember not to expect too much of yourself when looking forward to the future because _______.A. your shortages might stop you succeedingB. ideals can never be turned into realitiesC. you are likely to lack enough courageD. you haven’t understood yourself quite well69. Having a real sense of self-appreciation can enable one ______.A. to realize one’s shortagesB. not to be too proudC. t o gain enough self-confidenceD. not to go downhill70. If this passage is divided into three parts, the second part should consist of ______.A. Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3B. Paragraph 2 to Paragraph 5C. Paragraph 3 to Paragraph 5D. Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5第Ⅱ卷（两部分，共35分）第四部分：任务型阅读(共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分)Have you ever wondered why there are so many skin colours in the world? Do you know why people living in particular areas usually have a certain colour? Biology and history are the two reasons for this.Skin contains something called melanin, which determines a person’s skin colour. The more melanin a person has, the darker his or her skin will be. The amount of and production of melanin are controlled by genetics, but can be affected by other things, such as sunlight. If a person lives in a place with strong sunlight, his or her skin will protect itself by producing more melani n, making the skin darker. In a place with less sunlight, a person’s body will produce less melanin, making the skin lighter.Skin colour is also affected by another source—vitamin D. Humans all need vitamin D to build bones. People can get it by eating foods such as fish and milk, or from sunlight, which causes vitamin production in the skin. Melanin protects skin by absorbing sunlight, so sunlight absorbed by melanin cannot be used for vitamin D production. Therefore, a dark-skinned person will produce less vitamin D than a light-skinned person when they received the same amount of sunlight.The connection between vitamin D production and skin colour is clear when we look at evolution. The earliest humans lived in Africa, their dark skin covered with hair. When they moved to places that had less sunlight, their bodies produced less vitamin D because of their dark skin. As a result, their skin made less melanin, so they could get enough sunlight to produce vitamin D. their skin gradually got lighter and they lost hair. Now, people who live in areas with strong sunlight, like Africa, have darker skin, while people living in other areas have lighter skin. The exception to this is the Inuit, who live in a place with little sunlight, but have dark skin because they eat a lot of fish and have enough vitamin D.Evolution has given us a rainbow of skin colours. Humans have always had melanin to determine our skin colour. What has changed through history is the environment where we have lived. This has in turn changed our melanin production, and eventually, skin colour.在2008北京奥运会上，中国运动员获得了5l枚金牌，21枚银牌，28枚铜牌，总计100枚奖牌的优异战果。

Through the 19 I saw a young lady sitting at a piano with a box next to her.She was singing songs about love and her sweet voice 20 me a bit. Then I stood there watching her playing, thinking that it must take 21 to perform on her own in front of hundreds of people sh e didn’t know.She might have felt my 22 for she occasionally looked in my direction.By now I was telling myself that I could at least tell her how good she sounded.I walked 23 and put some money in her box and she expressed her thanks with a smile on her face.I asked her 24 , “Why are you playing the piano in the middle of this crowded place?〞She explained to me that she sees so many 25 people in the world that she is trying to relieve the pain by 26 motivational music.Instead of cont inuing my way home, I said to her, “I have been going through a 27 time lately, but you’ve made me 28 again.〞“I’m happy that I could be 29 to you,〞she replied. “Why are you so sad?〞I told her my story and said, “I’m not so 30 about what to d o….〞“You see, here’s the 31 ,〞she responded. “When you were walking, your head was down.〞She looked me in the eyes and went on, “Don’t look defeated, because 32 comes in different ways and if your head is down you might never see it.

We all have a mental life and therefore have some idea about what this means, even though it canbe studied in rats or monkeys as well as in people and the concept remains difficult to understand.Like most psychologists, William James was particularly interested in human psychology, which he thought consisted of certain basic elements: thoughts and feelings, a physical world which exists in time and space, and a way of knowing about these things. For each of us, this knowledge is primarily personal and private. It comes from our own thoughts, feelings and experience of the world, and may or may not be influenced by scientific facts about things. For this reason, it is easy for us to make judgments about psycho1ogical matters using our own experience as a standard. We behave as amateur psychologists when we offer opinions on complex psychological phenomena. However, problems arise when two people understand these things differently. Formal psychology attempts to provide methods for deciding which explanations are most likely to be correct, or for determining the circumstances under which each applies. The work of psychologists helps us distinguish between inside information, which is subjective, and may be prejudiced and unreliable, and the facts: between our predictions and what is “true〞in scientific terms.Psychology, as defined by William James, is about the mind or brain, but although psychologists do study the brain, we do not understand nearly enough about its workings to he able to comprehend the part that it plays in the experience and expression of our hopes, fears, and wishes, or in our behavior during experiences as varied as giving birth or watching a football match. Indeed, it is rarely possible to study the brain directly. So, psychologists have discovered more by studying our behavior, and by using their observations to obtain hypotheses (假设) about what is going on inside us._____________________________________________________________________...36. The first paragraph is mainly about _________.A. the founder of modem psychologyB. the definition of psychologyC. the complexity of psychologyD. the influence of psychology37. From Paragraph 2, we can know that problemsarise because _________.A. of the difference between inside information and the factsB. of different thoughts and feelings about psychologyC. people usually make judgments based on their own ideasD. amateur psychologists cannot use scientific terms38. According to the passage, psychologists study the brain mainly _________.A. in a direct wayB. with their own experienceC. by observing how it worksD. by watching people’s behavior39. Which of the following can be the first sentence in the fourth paragraph?A. Psychology is also about the ways people use their mental abilities to operate in the world around them.B. William James is considered to be the greatest psychologist in the 1890s.C. Psychology suggests that living beings adapt to a changing environment so that they can survive.D. It is important for psychologists, as well as ordinary people, to be, aware of the reasons.BCDABItem 1:JK Rowling, the Harry Potter author, has signed a publishing deal with Little Brown, to release her first ever novel for adults. The deal means that Rowling’s long-standing relationship with Bloomsbury, the London-based publisher that launched the Harry Potter books, has come to an end, at least in terms of new works by the author. Rowling, who is worth an estimated £530 million, said that the new novel will be nothing like the Harry Potter series, which sold over 30 million copies in the UK alone. She said that with the move from child ren’s to adult fiction, a move to a new publisher seemed like a logical step. [More]Item 2:China's hurdler Liu Xiang was disqualified Thursday at the Stockholm indoor athletics tournament due to false start, giving his rival Dayron Robles of Cuba an easy win of 7.66 seconds. Liu was not willing to explain the reason of his false start, but he told Xinhua that it was not related to his foot injury. Another Cuban Orlando Ortega followed in 7.68 seconds and Balazs Baji of Hungary stood third in 7.70 seconds. Last Saturday, Liu won the men's 60m hurdle final in 7.41 seconds at the Birmingham indoor tournament, setting a new Asian record. He said Wednesday that he hoped to have an even better performance than he did in Birmingham at the Stockholm indoor tournament.[More] Item 3: Former NBA star and current Bobcats owner Michael Jordan filed suit in aChinese court against Qiaodan Sports Company Limited, a sportswear and footwear manufacturer, for the use of his name without permission. Jordan says "This complaint is not about money, it's about principle and protecting my name." The Chinese company has registered and uses the name "Qiaodan". Jordan has been known in China since he gained widespread popularity in the mid-1980s.

If this happens often you probably have a pretty capable working memory and a sharper brain, new research suggests.This mind wandering, it seems, actually gives your working memory a workout. Working memory is the mental work space that allows the brain to juggle multiple thoughts at the same time. The more working memory a person has, the more daydreaming they can dowithout forgetting the task at hand.Researchers studied groups of people from the University of Wisconsin－Madison community, ranging in age from 18 to 65. The volunteers were asked to perform simple tasks, like pressing a button every time they took a breath or clicking in response to a letter popping up on a computer screen; these tasks were so easy that their minds were likely to wander, the researchers figured.The researchers checked in periodically, asking the participants if their minds were on task or wandering. When the task was over, they measured each participant's working memory capacity by having them remember letters while doing math questions. Though all participants performed well on the task, the researchers noticed that the individuals who indicated their minds had wandered more than others also scored higher on the working memory test.“What this study seems to suggest is that, when circumstances for the task aren't very difficult, people who have additional working memory resources allocate them to think about things other than what they're doing，〞 said Jonathan Smallwood, a study researcher of the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitve and Brain Science.When our minds run out of working memory, these off－topic thoughts can take the main stage without us consciously meaning them to; for instance, arriving at home with no memory of the actual trip, or suddenly realizing that they've turned several pages in a book without understanding any of the words.“It's almost like your attention was so absorbed in the mind wandering that there wasn't any left over to remember your goal to read，〞 study researcher Daniel Levinson, said in a statement.People with overall higher working memory were better able to stay focused when thetask at hand required it. Those who had low working memory often had their thoughts drift away from the task, and did less well at it.The findings add to past research suggesting these mind drifts can be positive moments. For instance, daydreaming has often been associated with creativity—researchers think that our most creative and inventive moments come when daydreaming. It's likely that the most intelligent among us also have high levels of working memory, Levinson noted.43. The word “juggle〞 in the secon d paragraph can be replaced by “________〞．A. handleB. searchC. understandD. distribute44. What can be concluded from Jonathan Smallwood's words?A. People who often have daydreams probably own a pretty capable working memory.B. On the working memory test, people with wandering minds will get high score.C. Absorbed in the mind wandering, your attention left no space for your goal.D. Dealing with some easy jobs, people with higher working memory will daydream.45. What is the best title of the passage?A. Mind drifts are always positive.B. Daydreaming is good for the mind.C. Creative moments come with working memory.D. The more daydreaming, the more effectively one works.ADBDDo you remember the good old days? Innocent times spent sharing documents and executable files without a care in the world. Okay, every month or so you might encounter a boot sector virus — but they were easy to deal with even if the anti-virus software didn't pick them up.But those long lazy summers disappeared too fast. Macro viruses made InformationTechnology (IT) administrators grow up fast as they realized there was a type of virus which could spread very quickly throughout an organization. It wasn't unusual to find hundreds of computers within personal company infected by viruses transmitted via email attachments. The IT staff were amongst the fittest departments in your company, running from Personal Computer (PC) to the next cleaning them up.There had to be a better way. Companies now realize that viruses aren't "urban myths", and can have a serious impact on their operations. They invest in anti-virus software on the desktops, servers and email gateways and even put in place procedures to ensure their anti-virus is up-to-date with the very latest detection routines.It sounds like companies have put in place adequate defenses to protect against viruses. But have they?Anti-virus software detects most of the viruses your users are likely to encounter —often without the user even knowing. However, the software must be updated regularly, preferably daily in any large company. Even then, a very new virus can infect your users. With the rapid transmission of files through networks and the Internet, a virus can spread a considerable distance before it can be identified and protected against. Fortunately, only a few viruses ever do this but the likes of Melissa and the Love Bug can inflict serious damage before their progress is stopped. Whilst employees become suddenly aware during the ensuing media excitement, they soon forget about the virus threat as the stories disappear from the news headlines.This is the danger. Complacency can set in when there is no perceived "action" on the virus front with no global crisis, and the importance of being vigilant about viruses recedes in your users' minds. They forget what the big deal was in the first place —after all, anti-virus software deals with the viruses, doesn't it? And isn't it the IT department's job to look after this sort of thing?Before you know it your users are opening unsolicited attachments once more, downloading unauthorized software, and putting your company's data and credibility at risk. All because the users think that they are working in a safe environment. Employees see anti-virus software, firewalls and IT departments as guarantees that their computers will work and be safe. Of course, there aren't any guarantees. Anti-virus software plays one, albeit important, part in the defense of your company from malicious attack butthe security of your computer system is only as strong as the weakest link. And that, more often than not, is the human factor.No employer wants to come across as a killjoy or an ogre. Most will willingly accept that the happiest employees are those who feel that they are respected and trusted by their employer. Many companies accept that employees will send and receive a certain amount of personal email and make the odd personal telephone call.However, the worry comes when employees start risking company security in pursuit of personal amusement. Funny screensavers and games downloaded from the Internet can seem harmless enough but they could easily be harboring a dangerous virus.Software downloaded from the net is often unlicensed and unsupported, and may cause conflicts with existing software in use at your company. Unlicensed, pirated software is an ideal vector for a computer virus. Virus writers and hackers often use such software as the ideal "kick-start" for their virus distribution.It is vitally important that employees be educated about the virus threat but this cannot be a one-off event. The potential threat should always be in the back of an employee's mind and precautionary measures should be taken as a matter of course. There is no harm in reminding people about what could happen if they let their guard down. In the end, education is the key to a virus-free environment and this is a continual process. It may not be the most exciting thing on the agenda but it works.The lesson is simple. You can have the best software in the world protecting your company's defenses; you can even be the biggest IT company in the world; but without your users practicing safe computing they will always be the weakest link.46. Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage?A. Employees welcome the free software available on the Internet and they download a lot of it.B. Employees should be constantly warned about virus threats to ensure the normalfunctioning of the company's computer system.C. Employees like to take advantage of the facilities in their companies to handle theirpersonal matters.D. Employees take anti-virus software, firewalls and IT staff as guarantees for thenormal functioning of their PCs.47."Those long lazy summers" in paragraph 2 refers to __________.A. the time when people were not too much bothered by computer virusesB. the time when people used free documents and executable filesC. the time when people could take a long nap after lunchD. the time when people frequently encountered different boot sector viruses48. It can be concluded that __________.A. computer virus threats have never been given enough attentionB. computer viruses can be avoided for good with good anti-virus softwareC. computer virus threats have always been in the mind of computer usersD. computer viruses can never be avoided even when IT staff regularly update software49. Employers are likely to do all of the following except that __________.A. they criticize their employees for what they don't do wellB. they allow their employees to make some personal telephone callsC. they do what they can to make their employees feel respected and trustedD. they allow their employees to send and receive some personal email50. The best way to minimize the negative influence that computer viruses may bring is __________.A. to get the best, up-to-date softwareB. to have the best IT departmentC. to educate computer usersD. to download free softwareBADAC四．任务型阅读Disability aids are vital to those who suffer problems with executing work with two hands. These are people who have beendisabled due to some major sickness or some other problems. In order to help them carry on their work in the normal way, disability aids are manufactured. This helps them make their life a lot easier than what it would have been without these aids. The kind of disability aids that an individual might require depends on the person only. It is the problem that a person faces that decides the aids that he/she will use for carrying out their respective jobs. The following is the list of a few disability aids that come of significant use.The first and foremost aid is the stocking aid, aiding the individuals suffering from the problem of bending down to reach the foot and wear their own socks. These stocking aids have a gutter(槽) that is made up of plastic material. These gutters are shaped in a certain way along with the attachment of cotton tapes in it. The sock is then put over the gutter. The foot is placed inside the gutter. The cotton tapes help in pulling the socks up the leg and subsequently the sock. In this manner, the sock is worn by a person who has problems wearing it by bending one’s back and reaching the foot.There are openers that help the people who have problems with their hands or wrists to open bottles of ketchup, jam and other such bottles and jars that necessitates the use of hands and fingers.The third type of disability aids that comes to our minds are lifts. Now what are lifts? Lifts are certain machines that help in lifting people from specific areas, such as a bathtub or a set of stairs. These lifts are of varied types and come for numerous applications. It is for the individual to decide the type that he/she requires to use.For people, who have problems in balancing their upper bodies in a stable manner, there is something known as grab rails. These grab rails are installed for those who have mobility problems in their upper bodies. These rails come in varieties of shapes, sizes and angles. These grab rails are available to home users as well, in their different variations. One can purchase and fix one to their homes according to one’s specificities. These grab rails require the act of screwing and drilling in order to fix them to their appropriate place. The prices of these rails also vary according to the variation of their shapes and sizes.A portable book holder is a much sought-after disability aid. It can be used by anybody for that matter, not just the disabled. These portable book holders are light-weightand can be easily moved about. These holders relieve the strains on one’s hands, necks and shoulders that might occur due to the handling of a book. The holders are provided with extended legs that help in placing the reading material at suitable distance.Thus with the help of these disability aids, the old and disabled people can make their lives much more convenient and comfortable that would otherwise have been a cumbersome and complex one.Disability AidsDisability aids are important to people with disabilities (71) ▲from some major sickness or other problems.They can be used to help individuals whose bodies arenot (73)▲ enough to reach their feet to put on socksby themselves.They can be used to aid the disabled to open the bottleswhen the use of hands or wrists is a (74) ▲ .They can be used to lift people from specific areas.

Salman Khan’s voice is heard every day on the net --- by tens of thousands of students around the world who are hungry for help learning math. He has posted 1,lessons on YouTube ... lessons that appear on an electronic blackboard, which range from basic addition to advanced mathematics for science and finance. And they are free.Khan lives in Silicon Valley, with his wife, a doctor, and their new bab y. He got the idea for his “Khan Academy” four years ago, when he taught a young cousin how to convert kilograms to grams. With Khan’s help, the cousin got good at math, and Khan began a new career.Now, Khan records his lessons himself, but he never goes on camera. “It feels like my voice in their head. You’re looking at it and it feels like someone’s over your shoulder talking in your ear, as opposed to someone at the blackboard, which is distant from you,” he said.When Springfield High School in Palo Alto, California invited Khan to speak in person, he immediately connected to the students there.The idea of short lessons that can be played over and over again attracted high school senior Bridget Meaney. She says she had trouble with math in the seventh grade. “I think the teachers are good, but they can’t teach at a speed that’s perfect for everyone,” s he said. “I like the idea of learning something in class but then going back and pressing pause or rewind and actually getting a deeper understanding of it.”Originally, Khan kept his lessons short because of YouTube restrictions. Now, he thinks short is better. “Education researchers now tell me that 10 minutes is how long someone can have a high level of concentration. And anything beyond that and you r brain switches off,” he said.For Khan, teaching math, science, and finance is just the beginning. He says he’s ready to expand his YouTube site to include other subjects as well.56. What gave Khan the idea of teaching math online?A. His success in helping his cousin learn math.B. His discovery that many students found learning math difficult.C. A suggestion made to him at a local high school.D. His interest in Internet teaching.57. Why does Bridget Meaney like Khan’s lessons?A. Khan teaches seventh grade math better than her teacher.B. The lessons can be watched repeatedly until fully understood.C. She can perfectly follow the pace of Khan’s teaching.D. She cannot concentrate when learning in class.58. What does Khan mean by “short is better” in the 6th paragraph?A. Keeping the lessons short can ensure better concentration.B. YouTube recommends short lessons for its site.C. Short lessons encourage students to return to the website.D. Students enjoy short mathematics lessons more.BI entered high school after reading hundreds of books. But I was not a good reader. Merely bookish（书呆子气的）, I lacked a point of view when I read. Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, ideas, themes—anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a “complicated idea” until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizingeither its irony（嘲讽）or its very complicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included a book only once even if I might have read it several times. (After all, how could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be a book?)There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the “hundred most important books of Western Civilization. “More than anything else in my life,” the professor told the reporter with finality, “these books have made me all that I am.”That was the kind of words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato’s The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition（迷信）of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text. And by the time I reached the last word, pleased, I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic, and seriously crossed Plato off my list.59. On hearing the teacher’s suggestion of reading, the writer thought __________.A. one must read as many books as possibleB. a student should not have a complicated ideaC. it was impossible for one to read two thousand booksD. students ought to read every book more than once60. While at high school, the writer __________.A. had plans for readingB. learned to educate himselfC. only read books over 100 pagesD. read every book several times61. The underlined phrase “with finality” probably means“__________”.A. clearlyB. firmlyC. sadlyD. pleasantly62. The writer’s purpose of mentioning The Republic is to __________.A. explain why it was included in the listB. argue why he looked at the introduction of the bookC. show that he read the books with patience though they were hard to understandD. prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every wordC●Putting Movies on MobilesMovies in the theater get their recognition at awards ceremonies such as the Oscars. But how about movies for phones? They are getting their turn at MoFilm —the first mobile film festival.The first MoFilm competition, received 250 entries from more than 100 countries. Entries were restricted tofilms that were five minutes or less in length－ideal for viewing and sharing on mobile phones. An independent jury then selected a shortlist of five film-makers. The winner was chosen from the shortlist by an audience voting using their phones.●New PlatformsThe awards highlight the increasing impact that mobile phones are making in the entertainment industry. Many grassroots filmmakers start out with short films. They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screen their work. Therefore, mobile phones are increasingly being seen as a new platform for these short works.It is a good place for anyone who wants to express themselves and find a way to have that expression seen bya wide audience. Just think about how many people have mobile phones in the world!●New Technology AdvancesMoFilm is pioneering content for mobile and online services that is a world away from Hollywood. The majority of films made for mobiles are now short in length, taking into account the screen size. However this could be overcome as technology advances.In the near future, longer films will likely be seen on the mobile phone. And there are mobile companies creating phones where users can watch movies at higher quality.Wherever you see movies, one thing is certain: the quality of work, the simple ability at story telling, and the thing that inspires someone to tell a story can really come from anywhere.63. At the first MoFilm, _____.A. movies in the theater got their recognitionB. more than 100 countries took part in the competitionC. ideal films were five minutes or less in lengthD. the winner was chosen by experts' voting64."They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screen their work." The underlined word means "_____".A. discouragedB. encouragedC. frightenedD. surprised65. Nowadays the majority of films made for mobiles are short in length because of_____.A. online servicesB. the mobile phoneC. technology advancesD. the screen size66. What's certain about the future of MoFilm according to the passage?A. The number of mobile phone users may contribute to the popularity of MoFilm.B. Audience is not likely to watch longer films on mobile phones in the near future.C. Some mobile companies are on the way to producing mobile films of higher quality.D. Grassroots filmmakers can achieve their career success more easily starting from MoFlim.DSometimes life gets a little dull. What used to be fun and different becomes boring. That is the time to look for something new. It is the time for a big idea to get your mind off everyday life. So why not search for extraterrestrial (地球外的) intelligence? Or even better, why not get your computer to do it for you?Over two million people have joined the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence（SETI）project. Based in California, the SETI project analyzes information taken from a giant radio telescope based in South America. Its task is to look for signals from outer space that might prove that life exists on other planets.Processing this information is far too big a job for one computer. So the SETI project workers divide the work among volunteers who visit their website. Each computer gets some information to work out from the SETI network through the Internet. This process is often known as “meta-computing”.It is a wonderful thought. You are sleeping, eating a meal or going out with friends. All this time, your computer is searching the stars for signs that might show something is out there trying to get in touch. V olunteers are proud of being involved in the SETI project. It shows that they understand the potential of computing. They know that it is more than just a way of working or playing games.Meta-computing may also be creating intelligence as well as looking for it . This idea is based on the theory that human intelligence is created by the way in which different parts of the brain communicate with each other. As the saying goes, “The whole is more than the sum of its parts.” People who join the SETI project sometimes wonder whether their computer will become part of a huge network that has learned to think for itself.67. According to the writer, meta-computing may be creating intelligence __________.A. because human beings are intelligentB. because a computer works as the brain doesC. because of a network of many computersD. because of the number of computers68.

Radio telescope→SETI base→SETI website→V olunteers’ computersC. SETI base→SETI website→V olunteers’ computers→Radio telescopeD. SETI base→Radio telescope→SETI website→V olunteers’ computers69.

The passage mainly tells us about __________.A. a new way to work on the computerB. a new way to work and play gamesC. a new way to search for life outside the earthD. a new way to make life interesting and different第四部分: 任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题l分, 满分l0分)Nowadays people use different ways to communicate with each other. And does one always tell the truth when he or she talks with the other on the phone? Or does one sometimes tell a lie when writing an e-mail or giving an instant message? Recent research has found that communications technologies are far from equal when it comes to conveying the truth. The first study, made by Jeff Hancock of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, to compare honesty across a range of communications media has found that people are twice as likely to tell lies in phone conversations as they are in e-mails. The fact that e-mails are automatically recorded—and can come back to trouble you—appears to be the key to the finding.Jeff Hancock made an investigation by asking 30 students to keep a communications diary for a week. In it they noted the number of conversations or e-mail exchanges they had lasting more than 10 minutes, and how many lies they told. Hancock then worked out the number of lies per conversation for each medium. He found that lies made up 14 per cent of e-mails, 21 per cent of instant messages, 27 per cent of face-to-face interactions and an astonishing 37 per cent of phone calls.His results, to be presented at the conference on human computer interaction in Vienna, Austria, in April, have surprised psychologists. Some expected e-mailers to be the biggest liars, reasoning that because the unreal condition makes people uncomfortable, the detachment (非直接接触) of e-mailing would make it easier to lie. Others expected people to lie more in face-to-face exchanges because people are more practiced at that form of communication.But Hancock says it is also very important and effective whether a conversation is being recorded and could be reread, and whether it occurs in real time. People appear to be afraid to lie when they know that they will be responsible for what they have said in the conversation, he says. This is why fewer lies appear in e-mail than on the phone.People are also more likely to lie in real time—in an instant message or phone call, say—than if they have time to think of a response, says Hancock. He found many lies are sudden or immediate responses to demands that they don’t expect, such as: “Do you like my dress?”Hancock hopes his research will help business companies work out the best ways for their employees to communicate. For instance, the phone might be the best medium for selling their products where employees are encouraged to stretch the truth. But given his results, work assessment, where honesty is regarded as moreimportant than others, might be best done using e-mail.第二节：写作（满分 25 分）以下两幅图是关于学生零花钱的问题。
