时遁市安宁阳光实验学校实验高中高二年级上学期第一次周练英语试卷第一部分：阅读理解AWhen Frida Kahlo’s paintings were on show in London, a poet described her paintings as “ a ribbon (丝带)around a bomb”. Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her time. Sadly, she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time.Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City, Kahlo suffered from polio(小儿麻痹症)at the age of seven. Her spine (脊柱)became bent as she grew older. Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident. Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but nothing was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering, Kahlo taught herself to paint.In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, another famous Mexican artist. Rivera’s strong influence on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband.Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and 1940s, even in her home country. Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953.For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.29. What does the phrase “a much bigger name” in Paragraph 1 most nearly mean?A .a far better artistB. a far more gifted artistC. a much stronger personD .a much more famous person30.The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused by .A.polioB.her bent spineC. back injuriesD. the operations she had31.Kahlo’s style had become increasingly independent sincethe .A.1930sB.1940sC.1950sD.1970s32.What is the author’s attitude toward Kahlo?A. Love.B. Pity.C .Worry. D. Encouragement.BI left university with a good degree in English Literature, but no sense of what I wanted to do. Over the next six years, I was treading water, just trying to earn an income. I tried journalism, but I didn’tthink it was good, then finance, which I hated. Finally, I got a job as an assistant at a famous publisher(业). I loved working with books, although the job that I did was dull.I had enough savings to take a year off work, and I decided to try to satisfy a deep and long wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55,000 words.It takes confidence to make a new start. There’s a dark period, when you’re neither one thing nor the other. You’re out for dinner and people ask what you do, and you’re too ashamed to say, “Well, I’m writing a novel, but I’m not quite sure if I’m going to make it.” My confidence dived. Believing my novel could not be published, I put it aside.Then I met an agent(代理商)who said I should send my novel out to agents. So, I did and, to my surprise, got some wonderful feedback(反馈). I felt a little hope that I might actually become a published writer and, after signing with an agent, I finished the second half of the novel.The next problem was finding a publisher. After two-and-a-half years of no income, just waiting and wondering, a publisher offered me a book deal—that publisher turned out to be the one I once worked for.It feels like unbelievable, really. When you set out to do something different, there’s no end in sight, so to find myself in a position where I now have my own name on a contract(合同) of the publisher—to be a published writer—is unbelievably rewarding(有回报的).33.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?A.I was waiting for good fortune.B.I was trying to find an admirable job.C.I was being aimless about a suitable job.D.I was doing a job for more pay at a time.34.The author decided to write a novel .A.to finish the writing courseB.to realize her own dreamC.to satisfy readers’ wishD.to earn more money35.How did the writer feel halfway with the novel?A.Optimistic.B.Interested.C.Confident.D.Uncertain.36.What does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph?A.It pays off to stick to one’s goal.B.Hard work can lead to success.C.She feels like being unexpectedly lucky.D.There is no end in sight when starting to do something.CAre you looking for some new and exciting places to take your kids (孩子) to? Try some of these places:·Visit art museums.They offer a variety of activities to excite yo ur kids’ interest.Many offer workshops for making hand-made pieces, traveling exhibits, book signings by children’s favorite writers, and even musical performances and other arts.·Head to a natural history museum.This is where kids can discover the past from dinosaur(恐龙) models to rock collections and pictures of stars in the sky.Also, different kinds of workshops and educational programs are prepared for kids and any special events that are coming up.·Go to a Youtheater. It offers plays for child and fa mily visitors.Pre-show play shops are conducted by area artists and educators where kids can discover the secret about performing arts.Puppet(木偶)making and stage make-up are just a couple of the special offerings you might find.·Try hands-on science. Visit one of the many hands-on science museums around the country. These science play-lands are great fun for kids and grown-ups. They’ll keep your child mentally and physically active the whole day through while pushing buttons, experimenting, and building.When everyone is tired, enjoy a fun family science show, commonly found in these museums.37.If a child is interested in space, he probably will visit .A.a YoutheaterB.an art museumC.a natural history museumD.a hands-on science museum38. What can kids do at a Youtheater?A. Look at rock collections.B. See dinosaur models.C. Watch puppet making.D. Give performances.39. What does “hands-on science” mean in the last paragraph?A. Science games designed by kids.B. Learning science by doing things.C. A show of kids’ science work.D. Reading science books.40. Where does this text probably come from?A. A science textbook.B. A tourist map.C. A museum guide.D. A news report.第二部分：英语知识运用（第一节完形填空Whenever we hear about “the homeless”, most of us think of theDeveloping World. But the 41 is that homelessness is everywhere. For example, how many of us would expect to see people living on the streets of a 42 country like Germany?Kurt Muller and his wife Rita have spent eleven years making 43 for the homeless of Berlin, Germany’s capital.

The Mullers didn’t 49 to give their phone number to the street people and told them to phone anytime. Rita 50 there was somebody at home to answer the phone and their home was always 51 to anyone who couldn’t face another night on the street.The couple were soon 52 all their time and money, so Kurt visited food and clothing companies to 53 donations. Today, over thirty companies 54 donate food and other goods to the project and volunteers help to 55 them to the homeless. The public also give clothes and money and a shoe producer 56 new shoes.Kurt and Rita receive no 57 for their hard work. “We feel like parents,” says Rita,“and parents shouldn’t 58 money for helping their children.

高二第一次检测考试(英语)试题含答案
高二第一次检测考试（英语）（考试总分：150 分）一、阅读理解（本题共计4小题，总分30分）1.（8分）AIf you've been to Europe a few times already, chances are that you've hit all the big destinations: London, Paris, Rome, or Berlin. On your next trip you can either visit those same cities a second time, or instead you can take a chance and walk the streets of some cities that are a little bit smaller, a little bit less famous, but still full of European grace and charm. Here are four European cities to visit that you probably haven't been to yet.Besancon, FranceThis hidden French city has had a long reputation for being a well-kept secret. It can be at once sleepy with few tourists but abundant galleries, restaurants, and a wonderful Beaux Arts museum whose collection is second only to the Louvre. The city is wound by the River Doubs and also is very proud of its own UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Citadel, home to several small museums and a zoo.Seville, SpainFor the tourist who is already tired of Barcelona and Madrid, Seville offers a different taste on Spain. Located on the Southern coast, it keeps beautiful signs of the long period of Moorish rule, nowhere more than in the Alcázar palace building, just one of the city's UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Seville has over a dozen museums, tropical parkland, and probably the best tapas (餐前小吃) culture in all of Spain.Ghent, BelgiumGhent is a city that looks like it should be the setting for a fairy tale. All of the classic Belgium features can be found here — waffles and beer. Every year from Saturday before July 21, Ghent hosts a ten-day festival. This music and theater festival draws almost 2 million visitors, as the city streets transform into performance spaces for performers, and musicians. Palermo, ItalyPalermo is the capital city of Sicily, the southern island off the coast of mainland Italy. Thecity has an ancient history, and the various cultures that have controlled the island through the years have all left their marks on it. You can see winding street markets, antique fairs, and open air nightclubs here.1.Where can visitors enjoy art collections quietly?A. Besancon.B. Barcelona.C. Ghent.D. Palermo.2. What can visitors do in Seville, Spain?A. Visit antique fairs and clubs.B. Enjoy a colorful nightlife.C. Explore over 20 museums.D. Hunt for Moorish influences.3. Which country should a music and theater lover choose to visit?A. France.B. Spain.C. Belgium.D. Italy.4. What do the four European cities have in common?A. They were once ruled by various rulers.B. They are less famous but worth a visit.C. Visitors can enjoy seeing performances.D. They're all UNESCO World Heritage Sites.2.（8分）BAs I was walking home，a boy seemed to be singing a song in a very low voice，walking in front of me and carrying some of the same high school books I had with me. I caught up to him，and said “Hello”. I could tell he was startled，and dropped one of his books. I picked it up and as I handed it to him, he said “Thank you” in a strange way, like with a strong accent.We soon began walking together and talking. It turned out he was in my science class，and I didn’t even know it!His name was Ahmad，and his family had just moved here this school year. He invited me into his house，and his family treated me like a special guest, which made me feel very welcome. He said hospitality (好客) is very basic to his culture，and strangers were always treated very kindly. His mom brought out some great food，and offered me some tea. Ahmad’s father and two sisters wanted to hear all about me and my family, and my schooling.Ahmad’s whole family had to leave their lifelong home because war had broken out，and it wasn’t safe there anymore. They left with only what they could carry. His family was happy to feel safe, and they got used to American culture quickly. They seemed pleased that Ahmad had brought a friend home to meet them.And as my friendship with Ahmad has continued, I now realize that the world is so muchbigger than I thought! I also realize that your friends don’t have to be just like you. Differences make the world go round.5. What does the underlined word “startled” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Excited.B．Moved.C．Surprised.D．Interested.6. Why was the writer treated like a special guest by Ahmad’s family?A.They liked strangers who came to their home for help.B.They wanted to know more information about the writer.C. Strangers were always treated very kindly in their culture.D. The writer was an American and knew much about their culture.7. Where does the writer probably come from?A．Canada.B．America.C．China.D．Australia.8. What can we learn from the passage?A. People from different countries can be good friends.B. Friends need different cultures and different accents.C．Your friends should have a lot of things the same with you.D．You can’t make friends with people from other countries.3.（8分）CHappy birthday！Do birthdays really make people happy？Of course they do. We celebrate the day we were born. Besides, that extra candle on the cake suggests another year of growth and maturity—or so we hope.We all like to imagine that we’re getting wiser and not just older. Most of us enjoy seeing the miracle of growth in others as well. For instance, seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud. For Americans, like people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful process. But growing old? That’s a different story.Growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in youth-oriented（以年轻人为中心的）American culture. Most Americans like to look young, act young and feel young. As the old saying goes, “You’re as young as you feel.”Older people joke about how many years young they are，rather than how many years old. People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom. But Americans seem to favor those that are young, or at least “young at heart”.Many older Americans find the “golden years” to be anything but golden. Economically, “senior citizens”often struggle just to get by. Retirement at age 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income. Social security benefits usually cannot make up the difference. Older people may suffer from poor nutrition, medical care and housing. Some even experience age discrimination（歧视）.Unfortunately, the elderly population in America is increasing fast. Why？People are living longer. Fewer babies are being born，and middle aged “baby boomers” are rapidly entering the groups of the elderly. America may soon be a place where wrinkles（皱纹）are “in”. Marketing experts are already noticing this growing group of consumers.9.People feel happy when they celebrate their birthdays because .A. they can eat cakesB. they can become more mature and wiserC. they can receive many presentsD. they will feel younger at heart10.Why growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in America？Because .A. young people lack experience and wisdomB. American older people often joke about their old ageC. American culture is very youngD. different countries have different opinions on the old age11.The underlined sentence(in Paragraph 3）means “.”A. the golden years can make the old earn lots of money and receive good medical careB. the old people in America lead a hard life without good nutrition，medical care or housing after they retireC. the old in America have to retire at the age of 65D. the old can get whatever they like except gold12.The underlined part in the last sentence of this passage refers to .A. the oldB. the youngC. middle aged peopleD. children4.（6分）DThe U. S. Thanksgiving holiday is symbolized (象征) by its traditional food-roast turkey. But turkey is certainly not from Turkey. In fact, its English name is based on one big mistake. We could say it is a case of mistaken identity. The word "Turkey" has meant "the land of the Turks" since ancient times. In the mid-1500s, the word "turkey" was first used to refer to the bird in the English language.The misunderstanding over the word happened because of two similar-looking kinds of birds.There is an African bird called the guinea fowl(珍珠鸡). It has dark feathers with white spots and a patch of brown on the back of its neck. Traders brought the guinea fowl to Europe through North Africa. This foreign bird came to Europe through Turkish lands. So, the English thought the bird as a "Turkish chicken".When Europeans came to North America, they saw a bird that looked like the guinea fowl. This bird was native to the North American continent. But they thought that it was the guinea fowl，which at that time, was called the “turkey cock"，so they gave it the same name.Hundreds of years later, we continue to call this North American bird “turkey”, even though it has no connection at all with the country Turkey,or even with Europe.But English is not the only language with interesting names for this North American bird.The Turkish call turkey “hindi”, the Turkish name for India. The reference(涉及)to India probably conies from the old wrong idea that the New World was in Eastern Asia.The French call it "dinde", a name that also connects the bird to India. "Dinde" means "from India" in the French language. "Turkey" has similar names in several other languages.13. What can we know from paragraph 1?A. The word "turkey" appeared in modern times.B. Turkey's English name is based on correct identity.C. Americans like eating turkey in Thanksgiving holiday.D. Both Turkey and turkey have similar meanings in English.14. Where did the guinea fowl come from?A. Europe.B. Africa.C. America.D. Asia.15. What does "it" in the last paragraph refer to?A. Eastern Asia.B. The French language.C. The New World.D. The bird turkey.二、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）5.（10分）Having a heart-healthy lifestyle doesn’t have to be hard work. It’s just as easy as doing a 5-minutes-a-day strength training program while cooking coffee in the morning, or stopping to think for three seconds when the “you’ve got mail” alert sounds on your computer.1617 As you put on weight in adulthood, your weight gain is mostly fat rather than muscle. This extra weight can lead to conditions that increase your chances of heart disease. Even a small weight loss of 10 percent can be helpful for you.We spend 22 hours a day sitting or lying down. 18 Having a healthy heart means you need to fit movement back into your life, however busy you are. Start by cutting down on convenient short cuts. Doing cleaning by yourself, walking or biking to the corner store, or shopping at stores are all easy ways to get moving.Fresh, whole foods don’t have to cost more or take more time to prepare than the packaged stuff. These wholesome, delicious foods not only taste good, but they also protect your heart by reducing blood fats, driving down elevated blood sugar, and fighting destructive chemicals.19 It is quite possible that one may die of heart diseases if he or she smokes heavily. So we must keep away from nicotine.Researchers show that friends and optimism are linked with healthier hearts. 20 so spend an evening curled up on the sofa with your partner instead of watching the night news alone. Also, try these stress-saving solutions: give yourself a massage, or listen to some light music after a long day’s work.A. Keep a healthy weight.B. Good mood is quite important for keeping hearts healthy.C. However, our bodies are built for lots and lots of daily activity.D. Hearts are healthiest and happiest when in the company of others.E. Many things such as tobacco, fat, sugar and other polluted things are harmful to our hearts.F. Hiring a cleaner, driving your car and shopping online may be your daily habits since you arealways busy.G. Including these small steps into your routine one at a time will help you develop a healthier lifestyle without even realizing it.三、完形填空（本题共计1小题，总分30分）6.（30分）阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D) 中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The tree is usually a pine or fir（杉木） dressed with lights and other colorful decorations.Families might buy a cut tree or go to a tree farm and cut one down themselves. Some people bring a live tree in a pot into their home for the holidays and then put it back outdoors. Some people rent a Christmas tree. Companies might bring the same live tree to the same family year after year. Or the tree might get planted in a park or someplace else where it could help the environment.There are some trees that can be reused year after year because they are made of plastic or metal. Or, instead of a tree, some people have a small, sweet-smelling rosemary (迷迭香) plant, cut to look like a little Christmas tree.Another plant that many people connect with Christmas is the poinsettia (一品红). Poinsettias are native to Mexico. They can be white or pink, but most are bright red. They are named after the first American ambassador to Mexico. Joel Poinsett liked them enough to send some back to the United States. Babies or pets that chew on poinsettias might get sick. But experts say the plant is not as poisonous as some people think.Like millions of other houses, the home of America’s first president is decorated for Christmas. George Washington’s Mount Vernon Estate is in Virginia. Visitors can hear stories about what Christmas was like at Mount Vernon in the eighteenth century. The museum where visitors begin their tour is decorated with Christmas trees.21. What is the text mainly about?A. The customs of Christmas in America.B. The decoration of Christmas trees.C. The tradition of Christmas trees in America.D. The history of Christmas in America.22. It can be inferred from the passage that ______________ .A. Americans are not allowed to cut a tree for ChristmasB. Americans have various ways to get a Christmas treeC. a Christmas tree must be planted after it is usedD. every family will change their Christmas trees every year23.

As she opened the door, she nearly tripped over Sheba.“Hey, Sheba, ”she said, “I've got no time for you now, but I'll take you out as soon as I get back from tennis club. ”Then she noticed Sheba seemed to be coughing or choking.

Wait outside!”At that moment, a police car screeched to a stop outside the house. Two policemen got out and ran into the house. Joanne was by now completely confused and very frightened. Then the doctor arrived.“Where’s Sheba? Is she OK?” shouted Joanne.“She’s fine, Joanne. I took out the thing which was choking her, and she’s OK now. ”Just then, the two policemen reappeared from the house,half-carrying a white—faced man, who could hardly walk. There was blood all over him.“My God, ”said Joanne, “how did he get in there? And how did you know he was there?”“I think he must be a burglar. ”said the doctor. “I knew he was there because when I finally removed what was stuck in Sheba’s throat: it turned out to be three human fingers. ”26．What was Joanne supposed to do at 6：30？A．To walk her dog．B．To see her doctor．C．To attend a club meeting．D．To play tennis with her friends．27．Joanne wanted to get back to her home again __________________ .A．to dress up for the meetingB．to phone the police stationC．to catch the badly hurt burglarD．to wait for her dog to be cured28．From the passage, we can infer that _________________．A．Sheba fought against the burglarB．the police found the burglar had broken inC．Joanne had planned to take her dog to the meetingD．the doctor performed a difficult operation on the dog29．In this passage, the writer intends to tell us that the dogis ____________．A．clever B．friendly C．frig htening D．devoted三语法填空Nowadays, more and more schools in China have rules making students wear school uniforms to School.

He had no way of telling people exactly howpowerful it was , for at that time there were no units（单位）for measuring（测量）power .Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute. He called that unit one horsepower. With this unit he could measure the work his steam engine could do.He discovered that a horse could lift a 3300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute. His engine could lift a 3300-pound weight 100 feet in one minute.Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse, Watt called it a ten horsepower engine.41.

It Happened 200 Years AgoBBolivia has a population of three and a half million. About one tenth of the total population are white; one-fourth are mixed Indians and white; and more than half are full-blooded（纯血种的）Indians. The government and the industries are under the control of the white people.The Indians today live in much the same way as their ancestors. Most of them are farmers. Many work in the mines（矿）, for mining is the most impo rtant industry on Bolivia’s. Of all the mining products, tin（锡）is the most important, which makes up three-fourths of all Bolivia’s exports. The eastern slopes of the Andes（安第斯山脉）, since there are very few roads there, arefertile but not highly developed. The two primary means of transportation are river boats and porters（脚夫）. East of the hill region is the great plains where tropical plants are grown. A serious problem for Bolivia is the transport of food from the warm regions, where it is grown, to the mountainous regions, where most of the people live.Bolivia gained its independence from Spain about a hundred years ago. It has been slow in developing, but its rich resources promise a better future in it.46. The majority of the Bolivian population are __________.A. full-blooded IndiansB. mixed Indian and whiteC. white citizensD. all whites and mixed-blooded people47.

Bolivia has been slow in developing , but it has hope for a better future because of its ____.A. mining productsB. rich resourcesC. independence from SpainD. two primary means of transportationCThe Golden Bridge joins the beautiful city of San Francisco with the suburbs（郊区）to the north. Each day, about one hundred thousand cars across the bridge, taking people to and from the city. More than half of them cross the bridge during the morning and evening rush hours, as a result, the trip is not pleasant.Now, however, there is at least one group of happy commuters. （经常往来市区的人）. These are the people who travel under the bridge instead of on it . They go to work by boat and enjoy it so much that most of them say they will never go by car again .The ferry（渡船）they take is the large , quiet , comfortable “Golden Gate” . Commuters can enjoy the sun on the boat. In the morning, they can have breakfast in the coffee shop, and in the evening they can have a drink in the boat while they are looking at San Francisco’s famous scene and the nearby hills.The trip takes only thirty minutes and is not expensive. But best of all, being on a boat seems to make people feel friendlier towards each other. Two commuters who met on the “Golden Bridge” have already got married. Because the boat has been so successful, there are plans to use other still larger boats. There is also a plan for a high-speed boat that will make the trip in only fifteen minutes. Not everyone is happy about that. “A lot of people don’t want to get the trip faster,” said one commuter. “They feel that half an hour is just enough time to rest. ”51. Over __________ cross the Golden Gate Bridge during rush hours every day .A. 100,000 peopleB. 50,000 peopleC. 100,000 carsD. 50,000 cars52.

A group of commuters are happy ___________ .A. because they are the people who travel under the bridge.B. because they are the people who travel on the bridge.C. because they go to work by boat and enjoy it very much.D. because they will never go to work by car again五．补全对话（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分）W: Good morning, 56M: Good morning, I’d like to check out.W: All right, 57M: Room 2301W: You are Mr. Baker, Martin Baker, right?M: 58W: This is your bill, Mr. Baker.

AAn eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle (奇迹) can save him now.〞 the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.She hurried to a drugstore with the money in her hand.“And what do you want?〞asked the salesman. “It’s for my little brother.〞The girl answered. “He’s really sic k and I want to buy a miracle.〞“Pardon?〞said the salesman.“My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?〞“We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry.〞 the salesman said with a smile.“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.〞A well-dressed man heard this and asked, “What kind of miracle does your brother need?〞“I don’t know,〞 she answered wit h her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an operation. But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.〞“How much do you have?’’ asked the man. “$1.11, but I can try and get some more.〞 she answered.“Well, w hat luck,〞smiled the man. “$1.11, the price of a miracle for your little brother.〞He took up the girl’s hand and said, “Take me to where you live.I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.〞That well-dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a famous doctor. The operation was successful and it wasn’t long before Andrew was home again.How much did the miracle cost?21. What was the trouble in the little girl’s family?A. Her brother was seriously ill.B. They had no money.C. Nothing could save her brother.D. Both A and B.22. In the eyes of the little girl, a miracle might be ______.A. something interesting.B. something beautiful.C. some wonderful medicine.D. some good food.23. What made the miracle happen?A. The girl’s love for her brother.B. The medicine from the drugstore.C. The girl’s money.D. Nobody can tell.24. From the passage we can infer (推断) that ______.A. the doctor didn’t ask for any pay.B. a miracle is sure to happen if you keep on.C. the little girl is lovely but not so clever.D. Andrew was in fact not so sick as they had thought.BWhat is most likely to affect your success at school or at a job? The ability to read well. And that goes for your kids, too. The poor literacy (读写才能) of our society has been a main concern of educators for a while now, and yet things are not getting better.In most cases, how well we learn to read will depend largely on our exposure (接触) to language as children. If we hear people around us talking about all kinds of subjects as children, we naturally pick up the words and phrases they use. If we pick up a lot of words, we will learn to read better.Here are my several suggestions for reading improvement.Read about things that interest you. If you are interested in what you are reading about, the words will come alive, and you will understand better. The more you read, the better you will become at reading. Just get started and it will become a habit, as long as you are interested in what you are reading.Read something that is at your level or just a little difficult for you. Readmaterial that you find easy to read, or just a little challenging. Looking up many unknown words in a dictionary is dull, and the results of the dictionary search are quickly forgotten.If you have trouble reading, listen first. If you can hear the new words and phrases that you are reading, you will have an easier time understanding and remembering them. Hearing the rhythm of someone reading a text will help your own reading.Don't worry about what you don't understand. Most of your reading should be for pleasure. You can enjoy reading without understanding all of what you read. You may even understand some things in your own personal way.25．If we want to succeed at school, we should ________.A．develop good reading abilityB．hear people around us moreC．remember more new wordsD．write more books26．The underlined word “challenging〞in Paragraph 5 probably means “________〞．A．easy B．difficult C．interesting D．dull27．What is the purpose of the writer in writing the passage?A．To tell us some ways to improve reading ability.B．To show that the poor literacy has been a main concern of educators.C．To teach us how to find fun in reading.D．To tell us some ways to pick up new words and phrases.28．Which of the following statements about the suggestions is NOT true?A．Read more about things that interest you and you'll become better at reading.B．While reading, look up every new word in a dictionary.C．Listen to what you are reading can help you understand and remember new words.D．When you can't understand all of what you read, you needn't feel worried.COne afternoon after school had finished, Peter and Jane were walking along the street. Suddenly they heard a big noise.“Come on！〞shouted Peter. “That sounds like an accident. Let's see what's happened.〞 They ran to where the noise came from. As soon as they got there, they could see what had happened. A small car had knocked into the side of a truck. The accident had happened in a quiet street with only four houses in it. Peter and Jane were the first ones to reach the site. No other people came. “We must be the only ones who saw the accident，〞 said Jane. They found that both the car driver and the truck driver were hurt.“Peter，〞said Jane, “run back down the road to Mrs. Day's house. Ask her to call the policemen and the ambulance. Hurry up. I'll stay here.〞Off went Peter as fast as he could. There was nothing Jane could do but wait. She knew that when people were hurt in an accident, they shouldn't be moved. It wasn't long before the police car and the ambulance arrived. The policemen got the car door open and they carried the man out. Then they got the truck driver out. The men weren't seriously hurt, but they were both taken to the hospital. The policemen thanked Peter and Jane, “You were very good to act so quickly when you saw the accident. Thank you for all your help.〞29．The accident happened ________.A．in a quiet street one school day afternoonB．in a busy street one school day afternoonC．in a quiet street one Sunday afternoonD．in a busy street one Sunday afternoon30．________ called the policemen.A．Jane B．The drivers C．Mrs. Day D．Peter31．Jane did nothing before the policemen arrived because ________.A．she was too frightened to do anythingB．she was alone after Peter leftC．she was waiting for PeterD．she knew she shouldn't move the two driversDA group of old classmates, who have succeeded in their work, got together to visit their teacher. Their conversation soon turned to complaining (抱怨) about the stress (压力) in their work and life. The teacher went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and many cups. Some of the cups are expensive and lovely, but some are cheap and not beautiful. The teacher told them to help themselves to the coffee.When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the teach er said, “Have you noticed all the nice-looking expensive cups were taken, leaving behind the cheap ones? It’s OK for you to want only the best for yourselves, but that is why you have the stress in your work and life even if you’re very successful now.〞“All of you really wanted the coffee, not the cups, but you chose the best cups and were eyeing each other’s cups.〞“Now think about this: life is the coffee, and money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold life. They do not change the quality (质量) of life. Sometimes, we just care about the cups, and we fail to enjoy the coffee. So, don’t let the cups drive you, enjoy the coffee instead.〞32.

Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I’ve found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it’s the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors---silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.It’s fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks(人行道). Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can’t provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack〞of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn’t want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the worldas I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.56. According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?A. Because they are traditional and safe.B. Because they are convenient and inexpensive.C. Because they are colorful and available.D. Because they are fast and environment friendly.BSome people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is .However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t putin.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no g ood, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.60. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ________.A .the reasons for success B. the meaning of successC. the standards of successD. the importance of success61. In Paragraph 2,the underlined word that refers to ______.A. being good at somethingB. setting a practical goalC. putting in more timeD. succeeding in life62. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ______.A. work makes one feel painB. one tends to enjoy his workC. one gives up his work easilyD. it takes a lot of time to succeedCWhat is EQ? In the early 1990s, Dr. John Mayer, Ph.D., and Dr. Peter Salovey, Ph.D., introduced the term “emotional intelligence〞in the Journal of Personality Assessment. They used this term to describe a person’s ability to understand his or her own emotions and the emotions of others and to act properly based on this understanding. Then in 1995, psychologist Daniel Goleman popularized this term with his book Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ.EQ gives you a competitive advantage. Even at Bell Labs, where everyone is smart, studies find that the most respected and productive engineers are those with the special qualities of emotional intelligence quotient —it’s not necessary for them to have the highest IQ. Having a high IQ may make you an excellent expert or a legal scholar, but a highly developed emotional intelligence quotient will make you a candidate 〔候选人〕for a leader or a brilliant lawyer. EQ can make it more likely that your marriage will be successful. Lack of EQ shows why people with high IQ can be such bad pilots of their personal lives.The study shows that these men with high IQ also lack these emotional abilities: suffering from being criticized and misunderstood, shy and uncomfortable,emotionally stimulated〔鼓励〕. Compared with those men with high IQ, these men (with high EQ) are calm and friendly, who are loyal to people and careers, have lots of sympathy with and care for others, with a rich but suitable emotional life —they’re comfortable with themselves, others, and the human society they live in.Is your intelligence the greatest predictor of what you’ll achieve in life? We have believed that IQ is the best measure of human potential for so many years. In the past 10 years, however, researchers have found that this is n’t necessarily the case — that in fact, your EQ might be a greater predictor of success.High IQ may help you the father of science fiction, but it won’t make youa respected person. High EQ can help you more.64. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. In daily life and work, EQ is more important than IQ.B. High IQ will have a bad effect on people’s lives.C. It’s not necessary for people to have a high IQ.D. You’d better develop your intelligence well in order to be a leader.65. The und erlined sentence “this isn’t necessarily the case〞 in Paragraph 4 means here that __.A. your IQ is a greater predictor of successB. success is dependent on your IQC. your EQ can predict your success betterD. human potential is up to your IQ66. From the text, it can be inferred that ____.A. high IQ can help you work better and succeed more easilyB. high EQ must make you succeedC. all the bosses have a higher EQ than their employeesD. those with high IQ are not valued67. The text is written mainly to advise ____.A. people should only pay attention to their EQB. people should develop their EQ as well as their IQC. those who want to act as leaders should develop their EQD. people should not develop their IQ too muchDHOW TO BOOKBy phone:Call Ticketmaster 24 hr Booking Lineon 0844 847 2484Online:In Person:The Palace Theatre Ticket Centre,Oxford Street.

It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have. If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收银员). 42． When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more complex ways of using money.Money lessonsApproach money lessons with openness and honesty. 43． If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, “ You have enough toy trucks for now.” Or, if the request is for many different things, say, “You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.”44．Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product---a name-brand butter and a generic (无商标产品)，for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money. 45． If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.A. Wise decisionsB. The value of moneyC. Permit the child to choose between them.D. Tell your child why he can –or cannot --- have certain things.E. Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to youF.

AAccording to the International Ecotourism Society, eco-travel is “responsible travel to natural areas that protects the environment, maintains the well-beings and involves education”. Eco-travel is on the rise, as more and more people become conscious about their carbon footprint.Expert from Boundless Journeys, Matt Holmes, who works on travel experiences towards conserving areas said, “As scientists and non-scientists learn more about how we human beings are impacting the planet, I think, more people want to do what they can while still exploring the world. Our guests are definitely interested in that aspect of our journeys. Travelers can farm their own food in Italy, managing their use of water and using solar or wind power. They can also visit family-run camp that cares for retired logging elephants in Myanmar, know a park entry fee, go to a conservation organization in Costa Rica, employ and train members of the local community or partner with a protection group. There are lots of options for seeking out greener holiday.”Most people believe that eco-travel is expensive and it is true. Matt explained “Anti-poaching patrols (巡逻) need to be paid, solar energy equipment costs a lot to install, building with environmentally friendly, materials is more expensive and so on. The extra cost is necessary, as you re- paying to minimize your footprint andprotect the places you visit, which is exactly what eco-travel is about. The financial success and sustainability (可持续性) of an eco-travel focused operation doesn’t come from thin air.” The industry is trying to make eco-travel affordable and make it accessible to the common people.21. What is the positive influence of eco-friendly travel?A. It enables travelers to protect the environment while travelingB. It keeps human beings healthy and happy in a friendly atmosphere.C. It teaches us to be responsible for the development of economy.D. It offers some valuable education about the knowledge of gardening.22. According to Matt Holmes, travelers will be interested in ________.A. eating delicious food in ItalyB. visiting elephants in the zooC. working together with a protection groupD. raising park entry fee in Costa Rica23. What will probably be talked about in the next paragraph of the passage?A. Why eco-travel is expensive.B. How we can make eco-travel less expensive.C. What material are used in eco-travel.D. Where we can go for eco-travel.BKnowing what to do at checkout and properly preparing for it can turn a potentially heated situation into a quick thank you add goodbye. Below we made a list of five things you should remember at hotel checkout.Don’t be late to checkHotels may add an extremely high price for being just a half hour late. If you know you won’t make the cutoff time, it never hurts to call ahead and try to n egotiate away a potential charge.Don’t forget to double che ck the room and safeMake sure you don’t leave things behind. If you have an early flight or checkout time, pack up as much as you can the night before so that last-minute rush isn’t too annoying. Also, be sure to take out anything in the room safe.Don’t forget to tip the housekeepersIt’s always polite to leave some money for the people keeping your room clean.Don’t ignore the detailed billYou may be in a rush, but give the detailed bill a careful look to see if the hotel charge is different from the rate you initially booked.Don’t get angryShooting at the assistant manager standing behind the front desk probably won’t help.When dealing with an unexpected item on the bill, think about how difficult it can be to deal with annoyed customers. Keep calm and things may be solved better and sooner.24. The hotel will charge you more money if you .A. check before cutoff timeB. do not call the hotel aheadC. are late in checking outD. negotiate with the clerks25. Which of the following does the author suggest doing?A. Leaving something behind.B. Being sure to keep the room clean.C. Doing the pack-up as early as possible.D. Tipping the housekeepers to show respect.26. What is the purpose of the last paragraph of the passage?A. To suggest a way to solve problems properlyB. To provide more information about the hotel.C. To show the uneasiness of assistant managersD. To protect customers from unnecessary dangers.27. In which section of the magazine can you probably find such a passage?A. FitnessB. NatureC. Lifestyle.D. Travel.CI visited Elba last June, joining Mary and John on a bicycling vacation. They made the arrangements for the car, hotel and bicycles. I studied the history of the island, which of course particularly features Napoleon.Napoleon (now I know) picked Elba as a place for peace when he was forced to give up the throne (王权) as Emperor of France in 1814. Far from being a prison island, Elba is beautiful with towering mountains, thick forests and sweeping bays and beaches.It is also an island filled with treasure. Very early on this island, locals discovered rich deposits of iron. Soon outsiders, too, discovered the iron and 150 other valuable minerals on this little piece of land. Long before Etruscans and other Greeks set foot on it, Dorians had moved in by the tenth century B. C. and were mining the island. The Romans ruled next, obtaining the minerals and building grand houses overlooking the sea. From the twelfth century until the nineteenth, the island was traded back and forth and was passed to France in 1802. Then came Napoleon, the new ruler of Elba.I was eager to visit his house in Portoferraio. The Emperor lived with his court and his mother, but his wife, Marie Louise had ensconced herself in the splendid Viennese palace of her father, Emperor of Austria. She lived safely there and showed little interest in visiting her husband in his mini-kingdom. Apparently, Napoleon wasn’t tro ubled much by this. He was too busy riding everywhere on horseback, building roads, modernizing agriculture and, above all, sharpening his tiny army and navy into readiness for his escape.In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to me that I could imagine the exiled (流放的) conqueror’s anxious thoughts. He might gaze over where I stood now, toward the lighthouse of the Stella fort, the sandy bay, and across it, the green mountains of the Tuscan coast. Napoleon spent only ten months here before making his victorious return to France and the throne.28. What did the author do for the visit to Elba?A. He did research on its past.B. He arranged transportation.C. He planned bicycling routes.D. He booked accommodation.29. Who might be the earliest outsiders to Elba according to the text?A. Napoleon and his army.B. Etruscans and other Greeks.C. Dorians.D. Romans.30. What does the underlined word “ensconced” probably mean?A. Settled.B. Locked.C. Cured.D. Controlled.31. What came to the author’s mind during his visit to Napoleon’s gardens?A. Beautiful views on Elba.B. Terrible living conditions on Elba.C. Napoleon’s ambition to regain power.D. Hardship of Napoleon’s return to France.DSkyscrapers are the symbol of Urban life. City people are used to seeing tall buildings and apartments. Farms, on the other hand, are associated with rural(农村的) life. However, there are experts who think skyscrapers should become farms to meet the increasing food needs.By the middle of this century, some scientists suggest, almost 80% of the earth's population could live in cities. In addition, the population could increase to 9.1 billion people during that time yet the amount of land available for farming will be the same. If current farming practices don't change, we will need an area of new land to produce enough food for the planet.Vertical farms, where urban farmers could grow crops in environmentally friendly skyscrapers, could be the solution. In spite of concerns over high costs, experts want to make it a reality and use these skyscrapers to grow crops.Vertical（垂直的） farms would have many advantages, supporters say. Unlike traditional farming, vertical farming could be free of chemicals and diseases. Besides, crops would not suffer from problems like flooding. Finally, vertical farms would reduce the cost and negative effects of transporting food over long distances.Some argue that although crops growing in a tall glass building would get natural sunlight during the day, it wouldn't be enough.

He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and his family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor café. We talked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical（挑剔的）air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before?The next day dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my fathe r. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me fromwhere he was.36. Why did the author feel bitter about her father as a young adult?A.
