Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.One day a professor entered the classroom and told the students about a surprise test. After hearing that, all students ____21____ (seat) and waited for the test to begin. The professor gave the test papers to all students with the text____22_____ (face) down at the desk. Once he handed out the test papers to all students, he asked them to turn the test pages and begin.Students’ were confused to see there was not a question ____23_____just a black dot in the center of the page. The professor noticed the students’ face expression and told them, “I want you to write about what you see there.”The students were even __24__ (confused) but started the test by then. At the end of the class,. the professor took all answer sheets and started reading each answer in front of all students. All of them described about the black dot, ___25______ position they tried to explain. After the professor finished reading, the whole class was silent.The professor explained, "Don't worry. I am not going to give you grades but I just want you to think about something. Here ___26______ focused on the black dot but no one wrote about the white paper, and the same is with our lives. The white paper represents our whole life and the black spot represents problems in our life. ___27___ our life is a gift given to us by God, with love and care, we have every reason to celebrate. Still we just focus on problems like health issues, problems in relationships etc., but we never see these problems are very small compared with___28___ we have in our lives.”So there is the moral lesson: we ___29______ try to take eyes off our problems and enjoy each moment that life _____30____ (give) us.

If so, then yo u’ve fallen ___31______to bad product placement (植入).Clever marketing folks want their products to be __32_ within a scene, but not the focus. When done correctly, product placement can add a sense of realism to a movie or television show.Product placement ___33______ from as early as 1950s when a drinks company paid to have a character in the movie The African Queen toss loads of their product overboard. Since then, there have been countless placements in thousands of movies.Sometimes product placement just happens. A set dresser (布景人员)might think of something that _34—the level of credibility or realism of the story. One example is the use of a can of ant killer in a violent fight scene in the popular television programme The Sopranos. A spokeswoman for the manufacturer said if the company had not been —35— about the use of their product, they would not have given it a thumbs-up.Arranged product placement deals are more prevailing. The most common type is a simple exchange of the product for the placement. A deal is made; in exchange for the airtime, the cast and crew are provided with a(n)___36______supply of the company's products.Sometimes, a gift of the product isn’t an appropriate form of compensation, and then the deal, ____37___with money, workswell. Someone from a manufacturer's marketing team hears about a movie project, and approaches the set dresser with a(n) _38_ attractive proposal. They come to an agreement, and the product makes a number of 39— casual appearances. Both teams are happy.Before product placement really saw a rapid growth in the mid-1980s, it was pretty much a do-it-yourself ___40___. Now there are entire agencies that can handle the job. Some larger corporations will dedicate personnel to seek out opportunities for placement within films, television shows ——even games and music.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Traditionally uniforms were manufactured to protect the worker. When they were first designed, it is also likely that all uniforms made symbolic sense —those for the military, for example, were originally____41_____to impress and even terrify the enemy; other uniforms indicated a distinction in ____42_____ chefs wore white because they worked with flour, but the main chef wore a black hat to show he inspected and supervised.The last 30 years, however, have seen an increasing____43_____ on their role in mirroring the image of an organization and in uniting the workforce, particularly in “customer facing” industries. From uniforms and workwear has emerged “___44______ clothing”. “The people you employ are your ambassadors (大使)，’’ says Peter Gri ffin, managing director of a major retailer in the UK. “What they say, how theylook, and how they behave is of vital importance.” From being a simple means of ___45___ who is a member of staff, the uniform is emerging as a new channel of marketing communication.Truly effective marketing through____46_____ images such as uniforms is a subtle art, however. How we look sends all sorts of powerful messages to other people. Dark colors give a sense of ____47_____ while lighter color shades suggest approachability. Certain dress style creates a sense of conservatism (守旧)，while others a sense of___48______ to new ideas. If the company is selling quality, then it must have quality uniforms. If it is selling style, its uniforms must be stylish. If it wants to appear ____49____, everybody can’t look exactly the same.But turning corporate philosophies into the right combination of color, style, degree of branding and uniformity is not always ____50_____. According to Company Clothing magazine, there are 1000 companies supplying the workwear and corporate clothing market. Of these, 22 ____51_____for 85% of total sales 一£380 million in 1994.A successful uniform needs to___52______two key sets of needs. On the one hand, no uniform will work if staff feel uncomfortable or ugly. On the other hand, it is ___53______ if the look doesn't express the business's marketing strategy. The greatest challenge in this respect is time. When it comes to human awareness, first impressions count.

A. commit B. command C. dedicate D. investSection CDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)St Kilda is a tiny archipelago (群岛)of the North Atlantic Ocean. The islands are among the most spectacular, but the greatest fascination is that, for over a thousand years, people lived there and possessed a sense of community. Cut off from the mainland, the islanders had a distinct way of living their lives, mainly eating the seabirds that returned to breed on the rocks.Isolation also had a big effect upon St kildans attitudes and ideas. The people sacrificed themselves year in and year out, in a constant battle to secure a livelihood. In such harsh conditions, life was only possible because the whole community workedtogether.In the 19th century St Kilda was subject to pressures from the outside world. Education, religion and tourism all attempted to throw the St Kildans5 way of life into doubt. In the early 20th century, the strength of the community became weakened as contact with the rest of Britain increased. When disease cut their numbers, and wind and sea made it difficult to get adequate food, the St Kildans were forced to turn to the mainland for assistance.In 1930, the St Kildans finally agreed to abandon their homes. They settled on the Scottish mainland, not realizing it meant throwing themselves into the 20th century. As adults, they had to accept those values most Scots believe in. For instance, the islanders found it difficult to' base their existence upon money. They had never lived in a world where they bought goods and services from each other.The islanders showed themselves indifferent to the jobs they were given on the mainland. The labours asked of them were unskilled compared with the spectacular skills they had once performed in order to kill seabirds. Moreover, killing birds had once provided the community with food to survive. On the mainland, however, the tasks they were asked to perform did not provide them immediately with what was needed to keep them fed and warm.The history of the St Kildans after the evacuation (撤离)，of their inability and lack of resolution to fit into urban society, makes sad reading. When they were resettled on the mainland, the St Kildans were forced to live in a society whose values were unacceptable and incomprehensible to the majority of them. For many, the move was a tragedy.56. According to Paragraph 3, the following factors lead to Stkildans seeking help from outside EXCEPT______________.A. unbearable windB. insufficient food supplyC. contact with BritainD. worsening health57. After the St Kildans inhabited Scotland, they .A. soon learned how to buy goods and services from othersB. had trouble adapting to the value of dominant society.C. exhibited willingness to carry out their given jobs.D. had the opportunity to show their skills of killing seabirds.58. Which of the following is NOT about how people used to live on St Kilda?A. The major source of food was found locally.B. It was essential for people to help each other.C. Very few people had visited mainland Scotland.D. Money played an insignificant role in life.59. What is the passage mainly concerned with?A. The role of money in modem communities.B. How a community adapted to a different form of life.C. The destruction of an old-fashioned community.D. How a small community fight against opposite conditions.(B)The following safety risks may result in serious injury or death to the user of the MINI Cooper S:• This product contains small parts that arc for adult assembly (组装)only.

Where can you probably find the text?A. In an official report.B. In a medical journal.C. In a physics textbook.D.

Japanese scholars have been confused for ages about their stability.For centuries，many attributed the resilience (抗震性)of pagodas to the massive trunk-like central columns known as shinbashira, which bends and swings during a typhoon or earthquake, just like a tall tree. But the amazing thing is that the shinbashira actually does not carry any load at all but is suspended from the top of the pagoda — hanging loosely down through the middle of the building. The weight of the building is supported entirely by twelve outer and four inner columns.And what is the role of the shinbashira, the central column? The best way to understand the shinbashira's role is to watch a video made by Shuzo Ishida, a structural engineer at Kyoto Institute of Technology. Mr. Ishida, known to his students as “Professor Pagoda” has built a series of models and tested them on a “shake-table” in his laboratory. In short, the shinbashira was acting like an enormous pendulum (钟摆).Under pressure, a pagoda’s loose floors could be made to slide back and forth independently. Viewed from the side, the pagoda seemed to be doing a snake dance — with each floor moving in the opposite direction to its neighbours above and below. Theshinbashira, running up through a hole in the centre of the building, made it unlikely that individual storeys moved too far because, after moving a certain distance, they banged into it, passing on energy away along the column.Another strange feature of the Japanese pagoda is that, because of the building tapers (锥形), with each floor plan being smaller than the one below, none of the vertical (垂直的)columns that carry the weight of the building is connected to its corresponding column above. In other words, a five-storey pagoda contains not even one column that travels right up through the building. More surprising is the fact that the individual storeys of a Japanese pagoda are not actually connected to each other. They are simply stacked one on top of another like a pile of hats.The extra-wide eaves (屋檐)also play a part. Think of them as a balancing pole of tightrope-walkers. The bigger the mass at each end of the pole, the easier it is for the tightrope walker to maintain his balance. The same holds true for a pagoda. With the eaves extending out on all sides like balancing poles, the building responds to even the most powerful earthquake with a graceful swinging, never an abrupt shaking.62. In a Japanese pagoda, the shinbashira is designed to______________.A. bear certain amount of weight of the pagodaB. bend under pressure the way a tall tree doesC. connect the floors with pagoda’s baseD. stop the floors from moving too far58. Shuzo Ishida performs experiments in order to___________________.A. apply the pendulum into practiceB. gain ins ight into the “shake-table” modelC. learn about the mechanisms of pagodasD. locate shinbashira^ exact position in a pagoda59. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the article?A. Some columns may extend from the bottom to the top of a pagoda.B. The functions of extra eaves and balancing poles are similar.C. The storeys of a Japanese pagoda are fitted loosely.D. Pagodas5 amazing capacity to resist impact has long puzzled scholars.60. What is the best title for the passage?A. How Shinbashira Plays Its RoleB. Why Pagodas Do Not Fall DownC. Distinct Features of Japanese ArchitectureD. Shuzo Ishida, a Distinguished EngineerSection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Why should mankind explore space? Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup as human beings. What prompted our distant ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? 67________________ . The wider the distribution of a species, the better its chance of survival.Exploration also allows minerals and other potential resources to be located. Additional resources are always beneficial when used wisely, and can increase our chances ofsurvival. Knowledge or techniques acquired through exploration, or preparing to explore, filter from thedevelopers into society at large. 68_______. Also, we have already benefited from other by-products, including improvements in earthquake prediction — which has saved many lives —in satellites used for weather forecasting and in communications systems. Even non-stick saucepans and mirrored sunglasses are by-products of technological developments in the space industry!_____69___________.The chances of a large comet (彗星)hitting the Earth are small, but it could happen in time. Such strikes in the past may account for the extinction of dinosaurs and other species. Human technology is reaching the point where it might be able to detect the possibility of this happening, and enable us to minimize the damage, or prevent it completely, allowing us as a species to avoid extinction.In certain circumstances, life on Earth may become impossible: over-population or wide spread diseases, for instance, might eventually force us to find other places to live. While the earth is the only planet known to sustain life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to inhabit other planets and moons. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future.______70___________A. The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives.B. Space allows us to expand and succeed: for the sake of everyone on the earth, now and in the future, space exploration is essential.C. The mysterious space objects varying in size have beenfascinated scientists and scholars for years.D. It appears that we are driven to ensure the success and continuation of not just our own genes, but of the species as a whole.E. Therefore it still poses a problem for us human beings whether to explore the space at the cost of our own homelandsF. While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers.II. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Last year my company was bought by a large corporation and most of the managers lost their jobs. That was when I decided to do something I’d always wanted to do ——become a freelance writer (自由作家).Changing professions has meant that my lifestyle has changed in a number of ways.I work about as much as I did before ——between 45 and 50 hours a week —but my schedule is much less fixed than it used to be. Before, I worked from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day, with a few extra hours on weekends. Now, however, 1 work when I feel like it. For instance, sometimes I work until midnight or 2 a.m., then sleep until noon. I really prefer this kind of schedule.While I was working as a manager, I never exercised. I already felt tired after work, so I just came home in the evening and watched TV. However, last year I joined a health club and began to do regular exercise. As a result I have lost over 10 pounds and I feel much better. Tve also started to eat more healthfully. I used to eat a lot of fast food, but now I do my own shopping. I buylots of fruits and vegetables and cook them at home.Of course, not all the changes have been that easy. For example, I don't feel as safe financially as I used to. When I was working as a manager, I never worried much about money. I could always count on getting my paycheck every two weeks. Working freelance, I don't have a regular paycheck. So now I have to make sure that there’s enough money until the next check arrives.All in all, I really like my current lifestyle. Of course, that doesn’t mean I’ll never want to have a “regular” job. But for me, at least, it suits me.III. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72. 中午的欢迎会已推迟到下周三。

2017山西高考试题及答案
2017山西高考试题及答案2017年山西高考试题及答案一、语文科目阅读下列短文，回答问题：A在人类进化的进程中，大脑的发展是一项关键任务。
有研究表明，人类大脑的进化与面部特征之间存在着密切的关联。
在人脸识别方面，大脑将大量信息进行高效的加工和分析。
B科学家们通过研究发现，人类在大脑的发展过程中逐渐形成了对面孔的特殊敏感性，这种敏感性几乎是与生俱来的。
人们在看到面孔时会激活颞叶和顶叶等大脑区域，这些区域与面孔识别和加工息息相关。
C相对于其他动物，人类的面部特征和表达更加丰富多变。
除了识别出基本的身份信息和情绪表达，人类还能通过面部特征来推测其他人的个性、信赖度等。
这是人类大脑在适应社交环境和进化过程中的重要表现。
问题1：根据短文A，大脑的发展与何种面部特征之间存在联系？答案1：人类大脑的发展与面部特征之间存在着密切的联系。
问题2：根据短文B，人类看到面孔时会激活哪些大脑区域？答案2：人类在看到面孔时会激活颞叶和顶叶等大脑区域。
问题3：根据短文C，人类通过面部特征能推测出哪些信息？答案3：人类通过面部特征能推测出其他人的个性、信赖度等信息。
二、数学科目1.已知函数f(x)=2x^3-5x^2+3x+2，求f(-1)的值。
答案：将x=-1代入函数f(x)，可得f(-1)=2*(-1)^3-5*(-1)^2+3*(-1)+2=2+5-3+2=6。
2.设等差数列{an}的首项为a₁，公差为d，若a₂+a₄∕2=15，求等差数列的通项an。
答案：由题意可得a₁+d+a₁+3d=15，化简得2a₁+4d=15。
又因为等差数列通项an=a₁+(n-1)d，代入题目中的条件可得a₁+3d=15。
联立两式解方程得a₁=9，d=2。
所以等差数列的通项an=9+(n-1)2=2n+7。
三、英语科目阅读下面短文，回答问题：The food we eat has a direct impact on our health. A healthy diet canhelp prevent chronic diseases and improve overall well-being. There are several key elements to consider when thinking about a healthy diet.Firstly, a balanced diet is important. This means including a mix of different food groups, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins,and healthy fats. Each food group provides different nutrients that our bodies need to function properly.Secondly, portion control is essential. Eating the right amount of food is just as important as eating the right foods. Overeating can lead to weight gain and increase the risk of developing a variety of health problems.Thirdly, reducing the consumption of processed foods is crucial. Processed foods often contain high levels of added sugars, unhealthy fats, and artificial additives. They are low in nutritional value and can contribute to weight gain and chronic diseases.Lastly, staying hydrated is key. Drinking enough water throughout the day is vital for maintaining good health. Water helps to regulate body temperature, transport nutrients, and remove waste products from the body.问题1：为什么均衡饮食很重要？答案1：均衡饮食意味着摄入不同的食物类别，如水果、蔬菜、全谷物、瘦肉和健康脂肪等，每个食物类别都提供身体需要的不同营养素。

AMelbourne,AustraliaMelbourne is a hot-spot travel destination,and it’s easy to see its beautiful beaches and busy city life.Why it’s a great choice: Australia as a whole is considered a safe destination for international travel,and because of that,many solo travelers go there As an English-speaking country,you won’t be faced with any language barriers. Melbourne is easy to get around because you can walk or bike practically anywhere!ThailandThailand is great for solo travelers—perhaps because it is one of the Buddhist mindsets,which promote equality among the sexes.Why it’s a great choice: Thailand is known for its friendly atmosphere,and as a travel hot-spot,there are plenty of chances to meet other like-minded travelers.It is well known for being very cheap,especially in the north.It is a good choice if you want to get away on a budget.Thailand has a lot to offer,from theparty-central Bangkok to beautiful beaches and tropical(热带)jungle.Hong Kong,ChinaHong Kong is a great place to relax for solo travelers as it is full of “Zen moments,” such as beautiful gardens and Tai Chi classes.Why it’s a great choice: Hong Kong is regarded as one of the safest cities in the world.If you’re not well-traveled, or perhaps a bit tired of things like language barriers,Hong Kong is a great place to start,as it mixes both Eastern and Western at the same time.Bali,IndonesiaBali is a spiritual place with yoga,spas,healthy food and beaches.The combination of friendly people and splendidly visual culture has made Bali Indonesia number one tourist attraction.Why it’s so great: You won’t be the only solo traveler in Bali.Everyone is known for being extremely friendly and you’re sure to meet some amazing characters along the way.As a Hindu island,Bali is the perfect place for a relaxing and spiritual retreat(静修).The Sacred Monkey Forest in Ubud is fantastic—if you like monkeys,anyway.1.What do the four places have in common according to the text?A.They offer good spas and y oga.B.There’re no language barriers.C.They’re great for solo travelers.D.They’re cheap to travel around.2.Where can you enjoy both convenient transport and beautiful beaches?A.Melbourne,Australia.B.Thailand.C.Hong Kong,China.D.Bali,Indonesia.3.What has made Bali Indonesia No.1 tourist attraction?A.Yoga,spas,healthy food and beaches.B.Meeting some amazing characters along the way.C.Fantastic monkeys in the Sacred Monkey Forest.D.Friendly people and splendidly visual culture.BAndy rode slowly on his way to school,day-dreaming about the fishing trip that his father had promised him.He was so busy dreaming about all the fish he would catch that he was unaware of everything else around him.He rode along until a strange sound drew him to the present.He came to a stop and looked curiously up to the heavens.What he saw shocked and terrified him.A huge swarm of bees filled the sky like a black cloud and the buzzing mass seemed to be heading angrily towards him.With no time to waste,Andy sped off in the opposite direction,riding furiously—but without knowing how to escape the swarm.With a rapidly beating heart and his legs pumping furiously,he sped down the rough road.As the bees came closer,his panic increased.Andy knew that he was sensitive to bee stings(蜇).The last sting had landed him in hospital—and that was only one bee sting! He had been forced to stay in bed for two whole days.Suddenly,his father’s words came to him.“When you are in a tight situation,don’t e your brain and think your way out of it.”On a nearby hill,he could see smoke waving slowly skywards from the chimney of the Nelson family home. “Bees don’t like smoke,” he thought.“They couldn’t get into the house.” Andyraced towards the Nelson house, but the bees were gaining ground.Andy knew he could not reach the house in time.He estimated that the bees would catch up with him soon.Suddenly,out of the corner of his eyes,he spotted a small dam used by Mr.Nelson to irrigate his vegetable garden.Off his bike and into the cool water he lived,disappearing below the surface and away from the savage insects.After holding his breath for as long as he could,Andy came up for air and noticed the bees had gone. Dragging himself out of the dam,he struggled up the hilly slope and rang the doorbell.Mrs.Nelson took him inside and rang his mother.“You’ll really need that fishing break to help you recover,” laughed his mother with relief.“Thank goodness you didn’t panic!” But Andy did not hear her.He was dreaming once again of the fish he would catch tomorrow.4.Why did Andy fail to notice the swarm of bees earlier?A.He was riding to school.B.He was listening to a strange sound.C.He was going fishing with his father.D.He was lost in the thought of the fishing trip.5.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the swarm of bees in the passage?A.They crowded like a black cloud.B.They shocked and terrified Andy.C.They tried to attack Andy in a mass.D.They made Andy stay in hospital for two days.6.How did Andy avoid the bees in the end?A.He rode off in the opposite direction.B.He asked Mr.Nelson for help.C.He hid himself under the water.D.He rushed into theNelson house.7.Which of the following can best describe Andy’s escape from the bees?A.No pains,no gains.B.In time of danger,one’s mind works fast.C.Once bitten,twice shy.D.Where there is a will,there is a way.CLisa Pina never thought she would need the fire safety training she received during her apprenticeship(学徒期) as a union painter and dry waller(筑墙工).On Friday morning,she was thanking God she had it.On Thursday night,while Pina was babysitting her granddaughter,nephew and two nieces in her sister’s apartment,she smelled smoke and realized the apartment building was on fire.When her 4-¬year-¬old granddaughter Ilean Garcia bega n saying,“We’re going to die,”she knew she had to act.Pina,39,first sealed the door,and then told all four children to get on the floor.After calling 911,she told the children to start singing and promised them all treats as soon as they reached safety.“I said,‘OK,we’re going to lie down and we’re all going to play a game,’” Pina said.“We all started singing our ABCs and 123s.I was just trying to make it fun.” Pina patiently waited,and a few minutes later,Riverside County sheriff’s deputies (治安官的助手) arrived.Pina,Ilean,8-¬year-¬old Gabriel Parga, 5-¬year-¬old Aubreyana Parga and 4-¬year-¬old Meriyah Parga were all trapped on the second floor as flames filled the first story.Pina did the only thing she could.She opened the window and dropped the children,one-¬by-¬one,into the arms of the sheriff’s deputies about 15 to 20 feet below.“I just needed to keep the kids calm so they wouldn’t be afraid,”Pinasaid.“I was deathly afraid inside，but I couldn’t let them know that.”Not long after dropping the children out of the window,fire-fighters arrived with a ladder and rescued her.Ten people were treated at the scene for suffering smoke,but nobody was seriously injured.8.What is the passage mainly about?A.A big fire without serious injury.B.An urgent call 911.C.A brave babysitter.D.A babysitter rescuing kids from a big fire.9.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 mean?A.A union painter.B.A dry waller.C.The apprenticeship.D.The fire safety training.10.What did Lisa Pina do before she called 911，in order to prevent the fire?A.She let children get on the floor.B.She opened the windows of the second floor.C.She had children start singing.D.She closed the door hard.11.What do we know according to the passage?A.The fire didn’t cause any injury.B.Li sa Pina was the last one to be rescued.C.The children were sent to hospital after the fire.D.During the fire Lisa Pina wasn’t afraid at all.DFood picked up just a few seconds after being dropped is less likely to contain bacteria than if it is left for longer periods of time,according to the findings of research carried out at Aston University’s School of Life and Health Sciences.The findings suggest there may be some scientific basis of the "5-second rule" — the belief about it being fine to eat food that has only had contact with the floor for five seconds or less.Although peoplehave long followed the ‘5-second rule’,until now it was unclear whether it actually helped.The study,undertaken by final year Biology students and led by Anthony Hilton,Professor of Microbiology at Aston University,monitored the transfer of the common bacteria from a variety of indoor floor types as carpet, cement floor to toast,pasta,biscuit and a sticky sweet when contact was made from 3 to 30 seconds.The results showed that: time is a significant factor in the transfer of bacteria from a floor surface to a piece of food,and the type of flooring the food has been dropped on has an effect,with bacteria least likely to transfer from carpeted surfaces and most likely to transfer from cement flooring surfaces to moist foods making contact for more than 5 seconds. Professor Hilton said,"Consuming food dropped on the floor still carries an infection risk as it very much depends on which bacteria are present on the floor at the time."The Aston team also carried out a survey of the number of people who employ the ‘five-second rule’.The survey showed that: 87% of the people surveyed said they would eat food dropped on the floor,or already have done so.55% of those that would,or have eaten food dropped on the floor are women.81% of the women who would eat food from the floor would follow the ‘5-second rule’.Professor Hilton added,"Our study showed that a surprisingly large majority of people are happy to consume dropped food,with women the most likely to do so.But they are also more likely to follow the ‘5-second rule,which our research has shown to be much than an old wives’ tale."12.According to the passage,which of the following is true?A.A toast dropped on the carpet is easier to be polluted than that dropped on the cement floor.B.A sticky chocolate dropped on the carpet is easier to be polluted than that dropped on the cement floor.C.The food dropped on the carpet shares the same potential of being polluted with the food dropped on the cement floor.D.The food dropped on the cement floor is not as safe as food dropped on the carpet within 30 seconds.13.What is the passage probably developed?A.ContrastB.ExampleC.TimeD.Space14.How did Professor Hilton feel after analyzing how many people chose to eat dropped food?A.PuzzledB.UpsetC.SatisfiedD.Astonished15.What is the main idea of this passage?A.The food which is dropped on the floor can be eaten safely.B.A research on the safety of food dropped on the floor is undertaken.C.The bacteria have no negative effect on the safety of food.D.People surveyed in the research are willing to accept the idea.第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Of course we were worried; we had just moved from Berlin, and she was just 8. But when she came home, we realized we had no reason to panic. Beaming with pride, she told us how she had discovered the little park around the corner, and had made friends with a few local dog owners.When this story comes up in conversations with American friends, we usually meet with polite disbelief. Most are horrified by the idea that their children might roam(闲逛) around without adult supervision.A study by the University of California has found that American kids spend 90 per cent of their leisure time at home, often in front of the TV or playing video games. Such narrowing of children's world has happened across the developed world. But German parents are generally much more accepting of letting children take some risks.“We are depriving(剥夺) them of opportunities to learn how to take control of their own lives,” writes Peter Gray, a research professor at Boston College. He argues that this increases thechance that they will suffer from anxiety, depression, and various other mental disorders, which have gone up dramatically in recent decades.I am no psychologist like Professor Gray, but I know I won't be around forever to protect my girls from the challenges life holds in store for them. And by giving kids more control over their lives, they learn to have more confidence in their own capabilities.4. Hearing the author's daughter exploring the new neighborhood alone, his American friends feel________.A. worriedB. proudC. doubtfulD. terrified5. We can conclude from Paragraph 3 that ________.A. American kids enjoy playing at homeB. German parents are less protective than American parentsC. German kids like taking risks more than American kidsD. American parents don't limit their children's activities in their leisure time6. It's implied from Professor Gray's words that ________.A. parents should always be around their children to protect them from risksB. more and more parents suffer from mental problemsC. children are having more opportunities to take control of their livesD. giving children more freedom is beneficial to their mental development7. Which of the following words can best describe the author's parenting?A. Open-minded.B. Irresponsible.C. Careless.D. Protective.CFilm director James Cameron first became interested in sea exploration when he was a little boy.His love for the ocean grew after he made the 1989 undersea adventure film The Abyss and the 1997 blockbuster Titanic, one of the most successful movies of all time.Following that big success，James Cameron decided to put his film career on hold to become an explorer.In 2012, James Cameron made a journey to the deepest spot in the Mariana Trench, known as Challenger Deep.And now the great journey has been made into a documentary(记录片)film, named James Cameron's Deepsea Challenger 3D.In James Cameron's fantasy films，such as Avatar and The Abyss, the unexplored areas are decorated in colours and full of danger. But on his dive into Challenger Deep, the reality proved far different: white, deserted and dull.“I felt like I had gone to another planet,” Cameron said after returning from the cold and dark place in the Western Pacific Ocean, nearly 7 miles below the surface. “I really have a sense of being separated and realize how tiny I am down in this big, black and unexplored place.”Cameron captured(获取)the moonlike landscape of the deep sea and documented the sea creatures he observed in the ocean.James Cameron's Deepsea Challenger 3D tells the story of Cameron's journey. It is a film about determination, danger and the ocean's greatest depths. The movie shows a unique insight into Cameron's world when he makes his dream a reality and makes history by becoming the first person to travel alone to the deepest point on the planet.It's an exciting film and inspiring reminder that our beautiful planet still has a lot to explore.8. When did James Cameron become interested in the ocean?A. When he was in his childhood.B. After his films The Abyss and Titanic.C. After he achieved great success in movies.D. When he began to explore the deep sea alone.9. What is the unexplored ocean like?A. Colourful and dangerous.B. Boring and deserted.C. White and attractive.D. Small and dull.10. What can we know about James Cameron's Deepsea Challenger 3D?A. It is a film about the exploration of ocean creatures.B. It is a story about Cameron's filmmaking dream.C. It aims to attract more people to explore the deep sea.D. It tells us about James' journey into Challenger Deep.11. What is the best title for this passage?A. The Great Dream of a Film DirectorB. A film DirectorExploringDeepSeaC. James Cameron and His Documentary FilmD. The First Person to Make Films About the DeepSeaDThe stories we share with one another are important. They show wisdom and provide inspiration. They are important to our development. But sometimes people choose not to tell.Consider the negative effects of not sharing a story in the news: People are wondering if public health officials are holding back too much information about the recent outbreak of Ebola.There is a danger in holding back stories that ought to be told. Bobette Buster said it was like this, “The fact is, history has shown us that stories not told can become like a dangerous genie (妖怪) left in a bottle. When they are finally uncorked, their power to destroy is set free.”There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our story: they often show our weaknesses or expose our disadvantages; they require courage and strength to share; and of course, there are some stories that should be kept secret—especially those that embarrass someone else.Most of us have two selves: the one we display on the outside and the one we actually are on the inside. And the better we get at hiding the stories that show our true selves, the more damage we may be causing to ourselves and to others.Honesty and openness is important. It proves we are trustworthy. It displays we are human. We are not perfect or better. It highlights the importance of hard work and personal development. Hard work may not allow us to overcome our disadvantages completely. But with hard work, we do not have to be restricted to our mistakes.Does this mean we admit every weakness, every disadvantage, and every secret regret to everybody we meet? No, of course not. There is a time and a place and a certain level of relationship necessary for some stories to be told in an appropriate manner.12. What’s the function of the example in Paragraph 2?A. It reflects that people are concerned about the spread of Ebola.B. It shows the bad effect caused by sharing a story.C. It proves not sharing a story can cause trouble.D. It concludes that one should share a story at a proper time.13.

As I was about to leave , I noticed a piece of paper on the floor. I picked it up and saw the words “FINAL-TERMEXAMNATION”at the top. I put the paper into my school bag secretly and ran out of the room.After I came back home, I took out the paper quickly. It was the exam paper of my worst subject, History. I felt excited. My heart beat fast. I took out my history book and started working on the answer. I had never answer any questions so seriously.On the day of the History Exam, I went into the exam hall confidently. When the paper was sent to me, I dreamed of getting the highest mark in the whole grade and could not help smiling. “my history teacher always encouraged me to work hard and get better grades, but I let him down time and time again. This time I will give him a big surprise”I[键入文字]thought.When the teacher said we could start, I turned the paper over. To my surprise, all the questions were different. Later I felt nervous. In the end , I almost left the paper undone. After the exam , I ran to the toilet, took out the paper and carefully read it from the top. Oh , it was the last year's exam paper. I read all the questions but I didn't read the date. This is a lesson from which I know I have to put my feet on the ground. I regretting doing such a silly thing. After that, I told my teacher the truth and I promised to be honest. From then on, I worked harder than ever before.1.The writer went to the teachers' office to ________A.take an examB. see his teacherD. ask some questionsC. get his school bag2.

I'll…BMaking a good job choice is almost as good as choosing a good life. So, choosing a job is one of the most important decisions to make in life. For my job, there are three important things that I will consider.The first one—that I must work in an area I like—is most important to me. Someone once said if you find a job that you enjoy, then you won't have to work another day. I would like to work in an area where I can be more creative. I would like to be the most valuable member there. All this is possible only if I like what I do.The second is that the area of my work must lead me to solve some new and hard problems. I would like to stay in the same area for a long time. In order to make it happen, the work must provide enough problems. More than just working to live, I enjoy making a difference and trying my best during the whole process. I would also like to be well remunerated for my hard work. So I can lead a comfortable life with this hard-won money. Then I can provide the best for my family.[键入文字]The third important thing is that I would like to work in an area that would help other people. The work in my mind is in fields such as the army, training or management. In such areas, I can help to develop the abilities of others and bring out their best. It would be a most satisfying job to help young people to become the best that they can be. When Ibecome old , I would like to look back with a great sense of satisfaction that thousands of people have become better persons through my work.I accept the idea that no one make a choice of a job suddenly and quickly. He should decide what he wants to be in the long run. Then he should decide how he works towards it. He should study the proper courses, read the books and speak to knowledgeable persons in that fields before making a job choice. A good choice will most probably lead to a better life.6. According to the passage, a good job choice probably makes people__A. solve fewer problemsB. choose a good lifeD. provide hard thingsC. be good family member7. The writer considers an enjoyable job most important because___A. he has to bring out his bestB. it can make him more creativeC. he will have to work another dayD. it is possible for him to live better8. The underlined word “remunerated”in the passage means___A. trainedB. praisedC. acceptedD. paid9. The write wants to tell us that everyone should____[键入文字]A. become a knowledgeable personsB. join the army to become a better personC. make preparation to find a satisfying jobD. help young people to choose an interesting job10. What is the best title for the passage?A. my job choiceB. my favorite jobD. my sense of satisfactionC. my comfortable lifeCAre you shy ? If you are, you are not alone. In fact close to 50% of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their life. these days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting idea about why people are shy.Is it possible to be born shy ? many scientists say yes. They say that15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a litter quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result scientists think that some shyness is genetic.Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had older brothers and sisters. As a result they became shy. At the same time,children with on brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up[键入文字]alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children have big families.You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studies shyness in different countries, they found interesting differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one in three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says that Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure. In Japan when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teaches, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.For shy people , it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don't forget—if you are shy, you are not the only one.10.What is the passage mainly about?A. happinessB. shynessC. kindnessD. loneliness12. What does the underlined word “genetic”in paragraph 2 means?A. passed down from parentsB. learned from parentsD. made up by brothersC. taught by teacher] [键入文字13. What can be learned from the passage?A. most litter babies are born shy and quietB. if you are shy now, you will be shy foreverC. many shy children have older brothers and sistersD. most Israeli people are shy of expressing opinion14. We can learn from the passage ___ may cause shynessA. genetic, grown-ups and birthplaceB. genetic, family size and birthplaceC. family size , grown-ups and failureD. genetic, family size and freedom15. Scientists suggest that shy people can get over their shyness by___A. trying new things and practicing conversationB. blaming their failure on outside reasonsC. getting themselves away from their shy parentsD. trying to understand the reasons for shyness五、写作(按照下面提示写一篇演讲稿。
