AHave you ever heard of an old saying? Intelligence is a born ability while goodness is a choice. Gifts are easy—they’re given after a ll. Choice can be hard.I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2300 percent per year. I’d never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, an d I’d been married for a year. I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn’t work since most start-ups don’t and I wasn’t sure what to expect.MacKenzie told me I should go for it.As a young boy,I’d been a garage inventor.I’d always wanted to be an inventor,and she wanted me to follow my passion.I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park,listened carefully to me,and finally said,“That sounds like a really goodidea,but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn’t alr eady have a good job.”That logic made some sense to me,and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision.Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice,but finally,I decided I had to give it a shot.I didn’t think I’d r egret trying and failing.And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.After much consideration,I took the less safe path to follow my passion,and I’m proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choice.21.What inspired the author with the idea of building an online bookstore?A. His dream of being an inventor.B. The support of his wife.C. The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.D. Millions of exciting titles.22. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A. The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.B. He would be very excited if he tried it out.C. H e would be always having a doubt if he didn’t try.D. The decision to not try the online bookstore would terrify him.23. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Cleverness and KindnessB. The Starting of AmazonC. Following My PassionD. We Are What We Choose24. We can know from the passage that_______.A. the boss thought the idea was suitable for the authorB. the author wanted someone else to try the ideaC. the author might not regret if he failed the ideaD. the author might go back to his boss if he failedBWith the development of modern society, human beings are increasingly invading wild animals’ habitat as well as the wild plants’. Nearly a third of the world’s cacti (仙人掌) are facing the threat of extinction, according to a shocking global assessment of the effects.Cacti are an important provider of food and water to desert wildlife ranging from wolves and deer to tortoises, bats and birds, and these fauna spread the plants’seeds in return.But the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN)’s first worldwide health check of the plants says that they are coming under huge pressure from human activities such as land use changes, commercial and residential developments and shrimp farming. But the paper said the driver of cacti species extinction was the “uncontrolled collection of live plants and private decorating collections, and annual agriculture.”The findings were described as “disturbing” by Inger Anderson, the IUCN’s director-general. “They confirm that the scale of the illegal wildlife trade, including the trade in plants is much greater than we had previously thought, and that wildlife illegal trade concerns many more species than the elephants which tend to receive global attention.”Cacti are almost always delicious but unlike most others, they store water in their stems alone, enabling them to survive extreme draughts. The plants can be as small as one centimeter in diameter and grow above 19 meters in height. Well over half of the species are used by humans for display decoration, food or medicine. Almost 1,500 types of cacti were surveyed by the IUCN specialists over a five-year period, mostly in America.Dealing with the illegal trade is a hard task as they can be hidden in suitcases or even socks. While countries such as Peru have made progress in blocking the illegal trade, the IUCN is calling for more strictly carrying out the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (Cites) in the “hotspots’’ of Uruguay, Brazil and Chile. Mexico has made advances but still has work to do, according to Goettsch.25. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?A. What causes cacti species extinctionB. What gives people pressureC. What IUCN has foundD. What farmers have planted26. In Inger Anderson’s opinion, _____________.。

内蒙古包头一中2016-2017学年高二下学期期中考试英语试题

包头市第一中学2016——2017学年度第二学期期中试题高二英语第I卷第一部分听力(略)第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

AThe elephant was lying heavily on its side, fast asleep. A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety. That didn't stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.Parbati Barua's father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up -- how to catch wild elephants.Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life. "Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase," she says.But Parbati doesn't catch elephants just for fun. "My work," she says, "is to rescue man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man." And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. "Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans," she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!21. For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to___________.A. get long lasting excitementB. keep both man and elephants safeC. send them back to the jungleD. make the angry elephants tame22. Before Parbati studied in a boarding school, __________.A. she spent her time hunting with her fatherB. she learned how to sing love songsC. she had already been called an elephant princessD. she was taught how to hunt tigers23. Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge because _____.A. they are caught and sent for heavy workB. illegal hunters capture them and kill themC. they are attacked and their land gets limitedD. dogs often bark at them and chase them24. The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in India _____.A. people easily fall victim to elephants' attacksB. the man-elephant relationship is getting worseC. elephant tamers are in short supplyD. dogs are as powerful as elephantsBGoldie's SecretShe turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall. No way could I have sent her away. No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. “We're moving house’’; "No space for her any more with the baby coming." "We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present." People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner's. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. "We didn't know what had happened to her," said the woman at the door. "I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared." "She must have tried to come back to them and got lost," added a boy from behind her.I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I've got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I've learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.25. How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house?A. Shocked.B. Sympathetic.C. Annoyed.D. Upset.26. In her first few days at the author's house, Goldie .A. felt worriedB. was angryC. ate a littleD. sat by the fire27. Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she .A. saw her puppiesB. heard familiar barkingC. wanted to leave the authorD. found her way to her old home28. The passage is organized in order of .A. timeB. effectivenessC. importanceD. complexityCHank Viscardi was born without legs. He had not legs but stumps(残肢)that could he fitted with a kind of special boots. People stared at him with cruel interest. Children laughed at him and called him ‘Ape Man’ (猿人) because his arms practically dragged on the ground.Hank went to school like other boys. His grades were good and he needed only eight years to finish his schooling instead of the usual twelve. After graduating from school, he worked his way through college. He swept floors, waited on table, or worked in one of the college offices. During all this busy life, he had been moving around on his stumps. But one day the doctor told him even thestumps were not going to last much longer. He would soon have to use a wheel chair.Hank felt himself getting cold all over. However, the doctor said there was a chance that he could be fitted with artificial legs (假腿). Finally a leg maker was found and the day came when Hank stood up before the mirror, for the first time he saw himself as he has always wanted to be-a full five feet eight inches tall. By this time he was already 26 years old.Hank had to learn to use his new legs. Again and again he marched the length of the room, and marched back again. There were times when he fell down on the floor, but he pulled himself up and went back to the endless marching. He went out on the street. He climbed stairs and learned to dance. He built a boat and learned to sail it.When World War II came, he talked the Red Cross into giving him a job. He took the regular training. He marched and drilled along with the other soldiers. Few knew that he was legless. This was the true story of Hank Viscardi, a man without legs.29. Children laughed at Hank and called him ‘Ape Man’ because ________.A. he didn’t talk to themB. he kept away from themC. he couldn’t use his armsD. his arms touched the ground while moving30. The sentence “he talked the Red Cross into giving him a job” implies that the Red Cross ________.A. was only glad to give him a jobB. give him a job because he was a good soldierC. was not willing to give him a job at firstD. gave him a job after he talked to someone whom he knew in the organization31. When Hank marched and drilled along with the other soldiers, he ________.A. took some special trainingB. did everything the other soldiers didC. did some of the things the other soldiers didD. did most of the things the other soldiers didD.Most Americans believe that someone isn’t grown-up until the age of 26 and they should complete their education, have a full-time job, have a family to support and be financially independent. They also believe that becoming a real grown-up is a process which begins at about the age of 20 and takes about five years, according to the report from the University of Chicago’s National Opinion Research Center.The findings are based on a representative sample of 1,398 people over the age of 18 who were surveyed in person. The survey found that people expect the transitions to grown-up status to be completed at the following ages: age 20.9 self-supporting; age 21.1 no longer living with parents; age 21.2 having a full-time job; age 22.3 education completed; age 24.5 being able to support a family financially; age 25.7 getting married; and age 26.2 having a child.“There is a large degree of agreement across social groups on the relative importance of the seven transitions,” said Tom Smith, director of the survey.The only obvious pattern of differences is on views about supporting a family, having children and getting married.Older adults consider these more important than younger adults do.This probably shows in large part a change in values across generations away from traditional family values.The most valued step toward reaching adulthood, the survey found, is completing education, followed by full-time employment, supporting a family, financial independence, living independently, and marriage.32. According to the first paragraph, someone is a grown-up when he _______.A. has found a full-time jobB. has finished his study in universityC. can make money and support himself after completing his educationD. can support a family and be financially independent after graduation33. A young man of 24 may be busy ________.A. finding a jobB. finding a girl friendC. making moneyD. preparing for his wedding34. The underlined word “status” in the second paragraph probably means“_____”.A. positionB. rankC. levelD. situation35. The best t itle for the passage should be“________”A. It takes a long time to grown up.B. Are we grown-up yet?C. Getting married means being grown-up.D. Completing education means being grown-up.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。

2017届内蒙古包头三十三中高三上学期期中(Ⅰ)考试英语试卷

2017届内蒙古包头三十三中高三上学期期中(Ⅰ)考试英语试卷+第二部分:阅读理解 (共两节,满分40分)第一节共15小题,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A,B,C,D)中,选出最佳选项。

A\While most high school students spend most of their time worrying about who likes who, and different relationships between their classmates, I choose to focus on my school lessons and sports.When I was young, my mother encouraged me to develop and keep friendship with boys in order to build strong relationships. But she told me not to risk a good friendship with a boy with the title of boyfriend. It’s indeed a wise choice to stay friends with those of the opposite sex. In my opinion ,even though some high school relationships might continue after graduation, the possibility of them lasting much longer is so slim(微小的) that there really is not a point to it.Firstly you have to think bout a question—whether it is possible to hurt both of you, or even hurt both of your future husbands or wives. My second point is that you still can date if you hope marriage could possibly follow. Except this, there is not any other reason for dating. Some students desire relationships for a chance to be romantic. While these are nice to have, there are many more important things at this point in our lives.The titles of boyfriend and girlfriend put too much stress on a relationship between high school sthdents. Just staying as common friends may be the best choice for us. I strongly advise we should deal with it in a proper way and follow our teachers’ advice if necessary.21.The author writes this passage probably for _______ to read.A .high school students B.school teachersC.parents and teachersD.married couples22.Between sexes, the relationship of being good friends might be _______ than that of beingboy/girl friends.A.weakerB.saferC.slimmerD.stronger23.How does the writer like the idea of dating among the students?A.Dating is a nice chance for students to be romantic.B.Studying is far more important than dating in schoolC.In high school dating can surely lead to future marriage.D.Dating in high school is sure to hurt your future family.24.The underlined word “ it” in the last paragraph might refer to ___________.A.the title of boyfriend or girlfriend at schoolB.advice given by both teachers and parentsC.the pressure from school lessons and sportsD.the relationship between students of opposite sexesBWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today's leading killers, such as heart diseases, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memory.In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells(细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs(器官). The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on---in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic conditional human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.25. According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by _______.A. diseases and agingB. accidents and warC. accidents and agingD. heart diseases and war26. In the author's opinion, today's most important advance in technology lies in _____.A. medicineB. the internetC. brain cellsD. human organs27. Humans may live longer in the future because ______.A. heart disease will be far away from usB. human brains can decide the final deathC. the basic materials of cells will last foreverD. human organs can be repaired by new medicine28. We can learn from the passage that _____.A. human life will not last more than 120 years in the futureB. human have to take medicine to build new skin cells nowC. much needs to be done before humans can have a longer lifeD. we have already solved the technical problems in building new cells.CThe greatest recent changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there was an unusual shorte ning of the time of a woman’s life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the end of the 19th century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which custom, chance and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children ,her work is lightened by household appliances(家用电器)and convenience foods.This important change in women’s way of life has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the f irst opportunity and most of them took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Many more after wads, return to full or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with both husband and wife accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfaction of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money and running the home, according to the abilities and interest of each of them.29. We are told that in an average family about 1990________.A. many children died before they were fiveB. the youngest child would be fifteenC. seven of eight children lived to be more than fiveD. four or five children died when they were five30. When she was over fifty, the late 19th century mother________.A. would expect to work until she diedB. was usually expected to take up paid employmentC. would be healthy enough to take up paid employmentD. was unlikely to find a job even if she is now likely31. Many girls, the passage says, are now likely to ________.A. marry so that they can get a jobB. leave school as soon as they canC. give up their jobs for good after they are marriedD. continue working until they are going to have a baby32. According to the passage, it is now quite usual for women to ________.A. stay at home after leaving schoolB. marry men younger than themselvesC. start working again later in lifeD. marry while still at schoolDHong Kong Disneyland is the only Disneyland in the world that has a real-life mountain and sea view as a backdrop(背景).

W a l k i n g i n t o t h e b u i l d i n g,Ijust felt excited, looking forward to what I was going to find outin the visit, something I would like to share with my beloved husband when I got home.Just as I walked past the Chinese Antique Porcelain section, one c o l l e c t i o n c a u g h t m y e y e sand heart very much: a Chinese plate with a drawing of a garden sce ne with two ladies, a child, a dog and a willow, very beautiful and unique. It reminded me that my mum used to have a similar plate like that;of course it was not from the Ming Dynasty, but we had pl a t e s a n d b o w l s o f a similar design, following and serving us for many years.I still remember every day mum was busy cooking for eight of us.W h i l e w a i t i n g f o r t h e dinner to be ready, we would play in the garden, jumping up and dow n, with the family dogs and cats also running around. When the dinne r w a s r e a d y,w e a l l r a n o v e r t o t h e b i g r o u n d t a b l e, everyone holding a bowl with rice, and chopsticks, getting ready to f i g h t f o r t h e f o o d o n t h e t a b l e. My mum normally would prepare five or six dishes served with those b e a u t i f u l C h i n e s e p l a t e s.The noises of chatting mixed with the warm heat, sweat, and wind blo wing would slowly accompanythe sun setting down. The pleasant evening would come and purple and blue colored the sky. Mum’s face was full of shine and happiness; she loved to see us finish all her dishes. She would always be the last person to eat, and basically the last to clear the leftovers. Mum always put herself last and the children first. Then I moved away and lived so far from her, but the food that she prepared always stays in my heart, and I always remember the beautiful Chinese plates.Plates for many people can be just tools to serve food, nothing m o r e t h a n t h a t.B u t f o r m e t h e yare not plates, for me they are a memory.25.Why did the Chinese plate in the Museum draw the author’s attention?A. Because its pattern and design were elegant.B. Because it called up her previous experience.C. Because she could share it with her husband.D. Because she remembered Mum had the same plate.26. What can we infer about the author from Paragraph 3?A. She didn’t want to help her mother cook dinner.B. She used to fight against her family for more food.C. Her family enjoyed a warm and happy dinner atmosphere.D. Her mum would serve precious dishes with Chinese plates.27. How does the author sound while telling the story?A. Touched.B. Excited.C. Pleased.D. Encouraged.CIt’s cold and dark outside, and your bed is so warm and comfortable. Goingfor a runseems like such a bad idea. But before you hide your running shoes, it might be worth givingthat crazy idea a go.According to The HuffingtonPost, an outdoor run in winter, as opposed to one on atreadmill(跑步机),burns more calories because the body is working hard to regulate (调节)itscore temperature. Furthermore, research shows that race times are faster in cold weather than inwarmer temperaturesand quicker runs burn more calories. Similarly, cold weather also makesthe heart work harder to distribute blood through the body, making that vital muscle evenstronger.Outdoor exercise also turns up your energy and rids you of the stress and depression thatbuild up every day. The heat and humidity insummer can drag you down and tire youfaster, but cold weather is refreshing. It adjusts you to your surroundings, making you feelalive.Of course, the threat of smog in some built-up areas is a further hurdle to winter exercise.Heart attacks, strokes, lung cancer and asthma are all dangers of running in smog. The combinationof air pollution and exercise increases the potential problems. If you do choose to run outside onsmoggy days, take a path ina park or residential area to avoid car exhaust(尾气),and go earlyin the morning, before rush hour. But staying inside on smoggy days and waiting for the nextclear day to run is best.28.How does cold weather benefit runners, compared with warm weather?A.They can run more slowly.B. They can take in more calories.C. Their hearts can function harder.D. Their body temperature can get lower.29. How does summer affect runners?A. It builds up their energy quickly.B. It makes runners tired easily.C. It lessens runners’stress.D. It causes heart attacks.30. What are the runners supposed to do on smoggy days?A. Stop driving cars.B. Do more exercise.C. Avoid outdoor exercise.D. Run late in the morning.31. What can be the best title of the passage?A. Refresh with a Winter RunB. Take Outdoor Exercise in SummerC. Go to Run in a ParkD. Follow the Tips to Reduce StressDTea,the most typical English drink,became established in Britain because of the influence of a foreign princess,Catherine of Braganza,the queen of Charles II.As a lover of tea since her childhood in Portugal,she brought tea-drinking to the English royal court and set a trend for thebeverage in the 17th century.The fashion soon spread beyond the circle of the nobility to the middle classes,and tea became a popular drink at the London coffee houses where people met to do business and discuss events of the day.Many employers served a cup of tea to their workers in the middle of the morning,thus inventing a lasting British institution,the“tea break.”However,drinking tea in social settings outside the workplace was beyond the means of the majority of British people.It came with a high price tag and tea was taxed as well.Around 1800,the seventh Duchess of Bedford,Anne Maria,began the popular practice of“afternoon tea,”a ceremony taking place at about four o’clock.Until then,people did not usually eat or drink anything between lunch and dinner.At approximately the same time,the Earl of Sandwich popularized a new way of eating bread—in thin slices, with something like jam or cucumbers between them.Before long,a small meal at the end of the afternoon,involving tea and sandwiches, became part of the British way of life.As tea became much cheaper during the 19th century, its popularity spread right through all corners of the British society. Thus, tea became Britain’s favorite drink. In working-class households,it was served with the main meal of the day,eaten when workers returned home after a day’s labor.This meal has become known as“high tea.”Today,tea can be drunk at any time of the day,and accounts for over two-fifths of all drinks consumed in Britain---with the exception of water.32.What is mainly discussed about tea in the text?A.Its development in Britain.B.Its traditional ways of drinking.C.Its influence around the world.D.Its popularity inEurope.33.What does the underlined words“the beverage”probably refer to?A.Tea drinking.B.A small meal.C.A way of eating bread.D.A choice of drinks.34.Why was tea unable to be accepted as a common drink in Britain in the 17th century?A.It was merely served in London.B.It was taxed as an alcoholic drink.C.It was forbidden in business settings.D.It was too expensive for most people.35.How is the text organized?A.By cause and effect.B.By comparison.C.In time order.D.In frequency order..第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)根据短文内容,从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

AIt was the men's skating finals of the Winter Olympics when l was 16. Someday I'd be in the Olympics. In fact, it was my dream.That night I lay on our living room floor excitedly watching the battle between the Brians: American Brian Boitano facing Brian Orser in Canada. Both of them had been world champions. Both of them deserved to win. Naturally l was for Brian Boitano,a northern Californian like me. We had skated on the same ice. I held my breath in amazement. Boitano performed successfully. The gold medal! I jumped in the air when his score went up.But what happened next is what I'll never forget. Brian Boitano sat in front of the camera with his coach, surrounded by a group of journalists. He was talking about his career and his medal, talking to the whole world. A terrible sinking feeling went through me. I could never be in the Olympics, I thought. I could not talk in public like that. Just the idea of a press conference terrified me.I loved skating partly because I didn't have to talk. I could express myself with my jumps and dances better. I didn't have to stand up and give a speech like some teachers expected. I could feel the blood rush to my face if I thought a teacher was going to call me. I stared at my shoes. 1 was sure I'd make a fool of myself.The next day l was at the rink(溜冰场)as usual.1 was practising a combination of jumpsthat had once seemed impossible. 1 worked very hard the next few years - on the ice and especially off. After journalists talked to me and although my heart pounded every time I spoke to them, I got to know them. They became familiar faces. And they got to know me. So when my big moment came four years after Brian's, I was ready.Sometimes I think my biggest accomplishment was not winning the gold but talking to the press afterwards. When you do the thing you fear most, you put an end to fear.Fear can stop you dead in your tracks. Fear can kill a dream. What are you afraid of? What scares you more than anything else? This year, walk right up to it and conquer it, step by step.21. What information can we get from the second paragraph?A. The author lived a hard life.B. The author comes from Canada.C. The author once skated with Orser.D. The author wished Boitano to win the match.22. What is one of the reasons why the author liked skating according to the passage?A. She could build up her body to be healthier.B. It could help her to get closer to her idol.C. She could better express herself with body language.D. The possibility of her being a world champion was great.23. What the author felt the most satisfied with is that .A. she lived up to her coach's expectationsB. she became a world champion as plannedC. she managed to overcome her inner fear eventuallyD. she handled the balance between her career and life24. What does the author mainly want to tell us?A. Face a fear bravely.B.Practice makes perfect.C. Bad times make a good man.D.Failure is the mother of success.BTop five best dressed at the OscarsNo. 5, Keisha Whitaker. I'm still loving yellow.No. 4, Witherspoon seems to be making Best Dressed lists for every event she attends this season.No. 3, Nicole Kidman looked amazing. And honestly, she would have been higher on my list if her dress hadn't had that bow(蝴蝶结 ) thing off to the side that depending on the angle she was standing at, looked like a pirate parrot sitting on her shoulder.No. 2, Cate Blanchett, Armani, simple, yet not boring. And I love the gun metal grey color.And this year's No. 1 Best dressed goes to Penelope Cruz. She gets the No. 1 spot for actually taking a chance, and pulling it off. On a different person, her dusty rose colored Versace could have easily been on the Worst Dressed List. But she looks perfect.Top five worst dressed at the OscarsThe No. 5 Worst Dressed person was Kirsten Dunst. The dress itself was nice, or at least I'm sure it was fashionable. Maybe it would be on anyone but Kirsten, but she ended up looking like a deflated corpse(尸体).No. 4 goes to Gwyneth Paltrow. Her face looked great, but every time the camera cut to a full body shot, it was like "Huh. The dress looks bad. "No. 3, Anne Hthaway. Giant bows are very rarely a good idea, yet everyone keeps wearing them. Anne's bow looked OK at times, but from other angles looked like a large, dead, fuzzy black moth(蛾) on her chest.No. 2, Kelly Preston wearing Dolce &. Gabbana leopard print. I'm sorry, it's the leopard print. I can't handle it. And nice hair.And the No. 1 Worst Dressed star at this year's Academy Awards was Jessica Biel. At the Oscars, hot pink and a belt can make anyone look tacky. And then you just end up looking like an 80's pop star in a room otherwise full of princesses and one tiny layer cake.25. How many best dresses are relevant to color according to the comment?A. 2B. 3C.4D. 526. Nicole Kidman would have looked better if .A. her dress had had that bow thing off to the sideB. her dress hadn't had that bow thing off to the sideC. she had moved that bow thing off to the sideD. she hadn't moved that bow thing off to the side.27. Kirsten Dunst became one of the worst dressed because .A. she wore a wrong dressB. the dress was uglyC. the color didn't fit herD. the decoration was bad28. What does the underlined word "tacky"in the last paragraph mean?A. Immature.B. Original.C. Fashionable.D. Tasteless.CStudents from Florida International University in Miami walked on water Thursday for a class assignment. To do it, they wore aquatic (水上的) shoes they designed and created. Alex Quinones was the first to make it to the other side of a 175­foot lake on campus in record time—just over a minute. Quinones, w ho wore oversized boat­like shoes, also won last year and will receive $500. Students had to wear the aquatic shoes and make it across the lake in order to earn an “A” on the assignment for Architecture Professor Jaime Canaves, Materials and Methods Constr uction Class. “It's traditional in a school of architecture to do boats out of cardboard for a boat race. I thought our students were a little bit more special than that,” Canaves said. “We decided to do the walk on water event to take it to the next level.”A total of 79 students competed in the race this year in 41 teams. Only 10 teams failed to cross the lake. Others who fell got back up and made it to the end. The race is open to all students and anyone in the community. The youngest person to ever participate was a 9­year­old girl who competed in place of her mother, while the oldest was a 67­year­old female.A large crowd on campus joined Canaves as he cheered on the racers. He shouted encouraging words, but also laughed as some unsteadily made their way to the end.“A part of this is for them to have more understanding of designing and make it work better,” he said. It is also a lesson in life for the students.“Anything, including walking on water, is possible, if you do the research, test it and go t hrough the design process seriously.”29.For what purpose did the students take part in the race?A.To go across the lake to school. B.To pass Professor Canaves' class.C.To test their balance on the water. D.To win the prize money of $500. 30.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.Most students finished the class assignment successfully.B.The students who fell into the water were criticized seriously by the Professor. C.The students wore shoes distributed by Professor Canaves to walk across the lake. D.The students took part in the race to challenge their physical abilities.31.What can we infer from the passage?A.Alex Quinones is a top student in the university.B.It's a custom for the people in the community to get involved in student activities. C.The student who made it to the end in the race would succeed in their professional career. D.Professor Canaves attaches importance to hands­on learning experience.32.The purpose of the passage is to ________.A.show his approval of the unique teaching style B.inspire teachers to be more creative C.report an interesting assignment D.encourage more people to take part in the raceDGrandpa's hobby was making birdhouses. He alw ays said, “A man has to keep busy to stay out of trouble.” Leigh wasn't sure how much trouble Grandpa could get into anyway, since he was such a nice guy, but she tried to listen to his advice. Besides, she liked to help him on his birdhouses.Grandpa's shop was full of well­oiled and carefully­kept tools. Whenever he used something, he put it back in exactly the right place. He had rules about how he treated his tools, because he hated buying something new if the old one still worked. He also made sure to clean up each time he worked on something.It wasn't too fun cleaning up, but it was nice to watch him cut boards to exact lengths. It was nice to see the drill put in holes for screws (螺丝) to go in cleanly. It was likebeing a doctor, but with wood. The best part of building was seeing all the pieces come together in the final form.The last steps always included lacquer or paint, to help protect Grandpa's hard work from the weather. His birdhouses lasted for years. If he didn't coat them properly, the sun and rain would turn the wood grey and weak in a short period of time. No, he always made sure to do things right. Even if he put rocks or other cute decorations (装饰) on them, it was done right and made to last.Grandpa was a hard worker, but he was also smart and generous. He let Leigh keep the birdhouses sometimes, but only if he got to help hang it up or set the post for it. It had to be done just right, after all.The birdhouses were a great way to learn about woodworking, hard work, taking care of what you have, and about birds. The best thing about building birdhouses was that Leigh spent some time with Grandpa.33.What's the best title for the text?A. Long­lasting Birdhouses B.Birdhouses MakingC.Birdhouses, Home for Birds D.Grandpa's Birdhouses34.What did Leigh value most?A.Listening to Grandpa's advice. B.Helping Grandpa on his birdhouses.C.Spending some time with Grandpa. D.Learning about woodworking and birds. 35.We can learn from the text that Grandpa ________.A.was a very good carpenter B.lived a very hard lifeC.didn't care about cleaning up D.kept thousands of birds第二节(共5小题 ,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.There are many reasons for people to study abroad.

Perhaps you’ve tracked how many kilometers you’ve run, how many hours you’ve slept or how many calories you’ve eaten in a day.If so, you’ve taken part in a movement called the “Quantified Self Movement.” Individuals gather information about their daily activities in this popular movement, also called self-tracking. This may sound difficult, but technology is making the process easier.Perhaps you’ve wanted to change a bad habit but couldn’t. Self-tracking may be your answer. The idea is to take information about your everyday activities and analyze themto help form a healthier lifestyle.Recently, tools such as smart phones, journals and apps, along with newly published wearable things, are making self-tracking extremely easy. Today, one can use Fit bit, the Jawbone Up, Google Glass or a smart watch to record personal data including sleeping hours, stress levels, heart rate and mood.So why does a person self-track? Someone may be trying to lose weight or improve their sleep patterns. Another person feels tired after eating. Self-tracking could help him to know what foods make him sleepy and watch his diet.Monitoring daily activities isn’t a new concept. In years past, athletes and their coaches kept notes detailing nutrition, training and sleep patterns in order to achieve an athletic goal. Similarly, doctors have also helped patients to record parts of their lifestyles and eating habits to help fight allergies, headaches and other health problems. However, it wasn’t until 2007 that magazine editors Gary Wolf and Kim Kelly, who started tracking every move they made, coined the term “Quantified Self.” Wolf s ays that the new tools will change our sense of self with the purpose of making us more effective in the world.Although self-tracking has many advantages, Dennis Nash, president of Data Speaks Health Solutions, says self-tracking has its drawbacks. Once people start tracking their daily activities, it can become an addition people like to do often. Also, they might begin to worry too much about their health.While self-tracking doesn’t guarantee that one’s quality of life will improve, it can highlight the importance of eating well and exercising daily. After all, the Quantified Self Movement’s focus is motivating people to apply enough energy to make healthier choices.21. People choose self-tracking because _______.A.it collects personal data and leads to self-improvementsB.it records how many hours you sleep a dayC.it watches your eating habitsD.it increases your movement22. The writer mentions tools such as smart phones and apps in Paragraph 4 to show_______.A.we depend too much on themB.it is easier to do self-trackingC.they do harm to people’s healthD.equipment is necessary to do self-tracking23. Self-tracking was firstly put forward by _______.A.scientists of Data Speaks Health SolutionsB.athletes and their coachesC.doctors and their patientsD.two magazine editors24. You can find this article in the part of _______.A.Education B.Entertainment C.Health D.NewsBDolphins(海豚) live in a dark underwater world. It’s often impossible to see each otheror anything else around them, so sound plays an important role in their survival. To communicate with each other, dolphins produce all kinds of sounds.Only other dolphins understand what the sounds mean. Scientists haven’t uncovered their secret communication, except for one kind of whistle. It might last less than a second, but this whistle is a big deal. Why?Because these whistles are actually names of dolphins —and every dolphin has one. Scientists call these sounds a “signature whistle.” When other dolphins hear the whistle, they know which dolphin is calling.Dolphins often hunt by themselves but still need to stay connected to the group. Since they can’t always see each other, dolphins use their signature whistles to check in with other dolphins hundreds of yards away. “In coastal areas, dolphins exchange whistles even when they’re a third of a mile apart,” says Greg Campbell, who studies animals. That means dolphins shout out to group members that might be nearly five football fields away.What’s amazing is who names the baby dolphin. Not the mother. Not an auntie dolphin or another group member. Scientists believe the baby dolphin itself comes up with the signature whistle. Like human babies, a baby dolphin plays with sounds throughout its first year. While testing its sound skills, a baby dolphin is doing something amazing. It’s creating or figuring out its signature whistle. How or why it chooses its signature whistle is not clear. Studies show that most of the time the signature whistle is nothing like its mother’s or group members’ whistles.When the baby dolphin is about a year old, its signature whistle is set. It repeats it often so the other dolphins learn to recognize it.Deciphering(破译) dolphin names is just the beginning of figuring out what dolphins communicate about. Do they chat about sharks?Discuss the tides?Maybe they even have a name for people. Someday scientists are to decipher the rest of dolphins’ communication.25.Sound is important for dolphins because of ______.A.their strong enemies B.their big groupsC.their poor sense of direction D.their living environment 26.The dolphin’s signature whistle ______.A.is especially helpful in hunting B.can be recognized by other animalsC.lasts a long time D.can travel long distances 27.The author writes the text mainly to ______.A.show how lovely and clever dolphins areB.introduce a special sound made by dolphinsC.encourage readers to study dolphinsD.tell readers how dolphins communicate28.A baby dolphin gets its name ______.A.all by itself B.with the help of its groupC.soon after it was born D.according to its sizeCTaking a trip to Philadelphia can be rewarding experiences or absolute disasters---it all depends on pre-trip homework.

Children‟s relationships with peers (同龄人) strongly influence their success in school,and children with fewer friends are more at risk of dropping out of school,becoming depressed and other problems.Making and Keeping Friends Is More than Child‟s PlayWhen 6-year-old Rachel returned to school on a recent Monday morning,her eyes immediately scanned the playground for her friend Abbie. “Though they were only separated by a weekend,the girls ran right into each other‟s arms and hugged,” recalls Rachel‟s mother Kathryn Willis of Gilbert. “It was like a scene from a movie.”Most parents instinctively (本能地) know that having friends is good for their child. Experts agree that friendship is not simply child‟s play,but a powerful predictor of social adjustment throughout life.A Skill for Life“Childhood friendships serve as a very important training ground for adulthood,” says Dr.Robbie Adler-Tapia,psychologist with the Center for Children‟s Health & Life Development at the East Valley Family Resource Center.Researcher William Hartup states,“Peer relations contribute significantly to both social and cognitive (认知的) development.” Hartup concludes that the single best childhood predictor of adult social adaptation is not school grades or classroom behavior,but rather,how well a child gets along with other children.The work of Arizona State University professor of Developmental Psychology Gary Ladd proves that just as being able to make and keep friends is beneficial to kids while the lack of friends is detrimental.Good Friendships Don‟t Just HappenExperts agree that it is essential for children to establish high-quality friendships. But,researchers warn,these friendships don‟t necessarily just happen. Often,a good friendship begins with involved parents.Psychologist Dr.Lynne Kenney Markan believes kids should be taught social skills in much the same way they are taught math and reading.Bad CompanyMany parents worry about the quality as well as the quantity of their child‟s friendships. “When she was in 1st grade,her supposed …best friend‟ began calling her names and threatening to hurt her,” says Mindy Miller. “My daughter wasn‟t allowed to talk to or even look at other girls in her class. It really crushed her spirit. I told my daughter she didn‟t need a …friend‟ like that.”“I‟ll bend over backwards(拼命) to help my son get together with a friend I think is good for him,” Adler-Tapia says. “I don‟t look at it as manipulation (操纵),just positive parental involvement.”33. The underlined word “detrimental” could be replaced by________.A. aggressiveB. disappointingC. ridiculousD. harmful34. We can learn from the passage that high-quality friendship most probably resultsfrom______.A. social skills and good study habitsB. school grades and classroom behaviorsC. academic success and social adaptationD. positive parental involvement and social skills35. From the last paragraph we can conclude that Dr.Robbie Adler-Tapia agrees that________.A. parents should regard making friends as something that just happensB. it‟s wise for parents to support and encourage healthy peer relationshipsC. parents only need to help their children to cope with difficult social situationsD. parents are supposed to encourage their children to make as many friends as they can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。
