We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account(考虑) the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright children. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade.Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects(方面) of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate(评估), and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to reach this goal.36. By “held back” (Para. 1) the author means “________”.A. made to remain in the same classesB. forced to study in the lower classesC. drawn to their studiesD. prevented from advancing37. The author argues that a teacher’s chief concern should be the development of the students’______.A. personal qualities and social skillsB. total personalityC. intellectual abilityD. learning ability and communicative skills38. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the third paragraph?A. Group work gives pupils the opportunity to learn to work together with others.B. Pupils also learn to develop their reasoning abilities.C. Group work provides pupils with the opportunity to learn to be capable organizers.D. Pupils also learn how to take part in teaching activities.39. The author’ s purpose in writing this passage is to _______.A. argue for teaching bright and not-so-bright pupils in the same classB. recommend pair work and group work for classroom activitiesC. offer advice on the proper use of the libraryD. emphasize(强调) the importance of proper formal classroom teachingBWhen asked to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves, many put friends ahead of homes, jobs, clothes and cars.A true friendship carries a long history of experience that determines who we are and keeps us connected. It is a treasure we should protect. Unfortunately, the better friends you are, the more probably you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t want-an end to the relationship.The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended. First, don’t let your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open. Second, apologize when you’re wrong –even if you’ve been wronged. Over the course of a friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best if the wronged person takes the lead and apologizes. When you apologize, give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships change as our needs and lifestyles change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy. The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the natural ups and downs that have an effect on all relationships. My suggestion: Consider friendship an honor and a gift, and worth theeffort to treasure and nurture(培养).40.What would be the best title for the text?A. Easy Ways to Make FriendsB. Ups and Downs in FriendshipC. How to Mend a Troubled FriendshipD. How to Take the Lead in Making Friends 41.The “wronged person” underlined in the text refers to a person.A. who has been mistaken for anotherB. who has been blamed unfairlyC. who has treated friends badlyD. who has admitted his mistakes 42.According to the text a friendship can last long only if .A. we have much in commonB. we know our friends’ mistakesC. we treat our disagreements wiselyD. we have known one another for long 43.What should we do if we follow the author’s second suggestion?A. Stick to our own points of view.B. Avoid making mistakes.C. Make an apology first.D. Change our lifestyles.CDuring the 19th century scientists found that when certain parts of the brain of man were injured, he would lose the power to do something. And so people thought that each part of the brain did a different job. But modern research has found out that this is not so, for it is not easy to say exactly what each part of the brain does.In the past fifty years, there has been a great increase in the amount of research done on the brain. Chemists and biologists have discovered that the way the brain works was not so simple as people in general may think. Chemists tell us that, 1, 000, 000 chemical changes take place in the brain every second. Some recent researches also suggest that we can remember EVERYTHING that happens to us. We may not be able to recall the things we’ve heard and seen, but they are all kept there in the storehouse of the mind.Earlier scientists thought that the power of one’s brain got weaker and weaker as one grow older. But it is now thought that it is not true. As long as the brain is given plenty of exercise, it keeps its power. It has been made sure that an old person who has always been active in the mind has a quicker mind than a young man who has done some physical work without using much of his brain. The more work we give our brains, the more work they’re able to do.44. Now the scientists have found that __________.A. a certain part of a man’s brain does a jobB. if a man’s brain is injured, he can’t do anythingC. it’s difficult to conclude what each part of a man’s brain doesD. the brain is more powerful than any other parts of a man’s body45. Some recent researches suggest that __________.A. a man’s brain can store all the things in the worldB. no one can recall everything he has heard and seenC. not everyone can recall all the things he has heard and seenD. anybody has a house of the mind46. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The older a man grows, the stronger his brain gets.B. The younger a man is, the more quickly his brain works.C. The more active his brain is, the more quickly his brain works.D. The more work a man does, the more quickly his brain works.DLife is difficult.It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficult.Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, their class, or even their nation.What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy. Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt, instruct.” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.47. From the passage, it can be inferred that __________.A. everybody has problemsB. we become stronger by meeting and solving the problems of lifeC. life is difficult because our problems bring us painD. people like to complain about their problems48. The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to __________.A. save spaceB. persuade readersC. make readers laughD. get reader’s attention49. The main idea of Paragraph 3 is that __________.A. Most people feel life is easy.B. the writer feels life is easyC. the writer likes to complain about his problemsD. most people complain about how hard their lives are50. The underlined saying from Benjamin Franklin “Those things that hurt, instruct” suggests that __________.A. we do not learn from experienceB. we do not learn when we are painC. pain teaches us important lessonsD. pain cannot be avoided四、单词拼写(共10小题;每小题0.5分,满分5分)51.

2016高二英语寒假试卷及参考答案第一部分: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)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。
AMany animals recognize their food because they see it. So do humans. When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda eats only one particular type of bamboo. Other animals eat only one type of food even when giventhe choice. A kind of white butterfly will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet. The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will be different depending on the season.Humans have a very varied diet. We often eat food because we like it and not because it is good for us. In countries such asFranceandBritain, people eat foods with too much sugar. This makes them overweight, which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right food, therefore, has become an area of study in modern life.1. We can infer from the text that humans and animals.A. depend on one sense in choosing foodB. are not satisfied with their foodC. choose food in similar waysD. eat entirely different food2. Which of the following eats only one type of food?A. The white butterfly.B. The small bird.C. The bear.D. The fox.3. Certain animals change their choice of food when _________.A. the season changesB. the food color changesC. they move to different placesD. they are attracted by different smells4. We can learn from the last paragraph that.A. food is chosenfor a good reasonB. French and British food is goodC. some people have few choices of foodD. some people care little about healthy dietBCAREER OPPORTUNITES(1)Full-time Secretary Position Available: Applicants should have at least 2 year’s experience and be able to type 60 words a minute.No computer skills required.Apply in person at United Business Ltd, 17 Browning Street, Leeds.(2)Part-time Job: We require three part-time shop assistants to work during the evening.No experience required, applicants should be between 18 and 26 yearsold.Call 0115665643 for more information.(3)Computer Trained Secretaries: Do you have experience working with computers?

While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries (食品杂货), saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that,several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, and then called my husband to pick it up. Once again myhusband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity (人性) as a whole. And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.8. Why was the bike so important to the couple?A. The mans job was bike racing.B. It was their only possession.C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed.D. They used it for work and daily life9.

How did people get to know the couples problem?A. From radio broadcasts.B. From a newspaper.C. From TV news.D. From a stranger.11. What do the couple learn from their experience?A. Strangers are usually of little help.B. One should take care of theirbike.C. News reports make people famous.D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.The Peales were a famous family of American artists.Charles Willson Peale is best remembered for his portraits of leading figures of the American Revolution.He painted portraits(肖像) of Franklin and Jefferson and over a dozen of George Washington.His life-size portrait of his sons Raphaelle and Titian was so realistic that George Washington reportedly once tipped his hat to the figures in the picture.Charles Willson Peale gave up painting in his middle age and devoted his life to the Peale museum, which he founded in Philadelphia.The worlds first popular museum of art and natural science mainly covered paintings by Peale and his family as well as displays of animals in their natural settings.Pealefound the animals himself and found a method to make the exhibits more lifelike.The museums most popular display was the skeleton(骷髅)of a huge, extinct elephant, which Pealeunearthedon a New York farm in 1801.Three of Peales seventeen children were also famous artists.Raphaelle Peale often painted still lives of flowers, fruit, and cheese.His brother Rembrandt studied under his father and painted portraits of many noted people, including one of GeorgeWashington.Another brother, Rubens Peale, painted mostly landscapes and portraits.James Peale, the brother of Charles Willson Peale, specialized in miniatures(小画像).His daughter Sarah Miriam Peale was probably the first professional female portrait painter in America.12.The author mentions in Paragraph 1 that Washington tipped his hat to the figures in the painting to show that ________.A.Charles Willson Peales painting was very lifelikeB.Washingtonrespected Charles Willson Peales workC.Washingtonwas friendly with Raphaelle and Titian PealeD.the painting of the two brothers was very large13.The underlined word “unearthed” is closest in meaning to“ ______”.A.showedB.inventedC.dug upD.looked over14.Which of the following is NOT the child of Charles Willson Peale?A.Titian Peale.B.Rubens Peale.C.Raphaelle Peale.D.Sarah Miriam Peale.15.The authors attitude toward the Peales is in general _______.A.puzzledB.admiringC.excitedD.disappointed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。

高二英语寒假作业三第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day late, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t got any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static (静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually,this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.1. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A. He got an older model than he had expected.B. He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C. He could have bought it at a lower price.D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.2.Which of the following can best replace the phrase”signed off”in Paragraph 1?A. ended all their programsB. provided fewer channelsC. changed to commercialsD. showed all-night movies3. How did the author finally get his TV set working again?A. By shaking and hitting it.B. By turning it on and off.C. By switching channels.D. By having it repaired.4. How does the another sound when telling the story ?A. CuriousB. AnxiousC. CautiousD. HumorousBYour house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情)when they’re in poorly lit places-and so mor e likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.Don’t forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里)per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, Andwhile you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes, Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake(摄入)jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.5. The text is especially helpful for those who care about_______.A. their home comfortsB. their body shapeC. house buyingD. healthy diets6. A home environment in blue can help people_________.A. digest food betterB. reduce food intakeC. burn more caloriesD. regain their appetites7. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?A. Eat quickly.B. Play fast music.C. Use smaller spoons.D. Turn down the lights.8. What can be a suitable title for the test?A. Is Your House Making You Fat?B. Ways of Serving DinnerC. Effects of Self-ConsciousnessD. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?CMore student than ever before are taking a gap-year (间隔年)before going to university. It used to be called the “year off” between school and university. Thegap-year phenomenon originated (起源) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.This year, 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance provided by University and College Admissions Service(UCAS).That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony Higgins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education. “Students w ho take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, and complete, their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,” he said.But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of Students(NUS), argued that the increase is evidence of student had ship – young people are being forced into earning money before finishing their education. “New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university up to £15,000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree.NUS statistics show that over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacation pe riods,” he said.9. What do we learn about the gap year from the text?A. It is flexible in length.B. It is a time for relaxation.C. It is increasingly popular.D. It is required by universities.10. According to Tony Higgins,students taking a gap year______.A. arc better prepared for college studiesB. know a lot more about their future jobsC. are more likely to leave university in debtD. have a better chance to enter top universities11. How does Owain James feel about the gap-year phenomenon?A. He's puzzled.B. He's worried.C. He's surprised.D. He's annoyed.12. What would most students do on their vacation according to NUS statistics?A. Attend additional courses.B. Make plans for the new term.C. Earn money for their education.D. Prepare for their graduate studies.DChoose Your One-Day ToursTour A—Bath & Stonehenge including entrance fees to the ancient Roman bathrooms and Stonehenge —£until 26 March and £39 thereafter.Visit the city with over 2,000 years of history and Bath Abbey, the Royal Crescent and the Costume Museum.

并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.AThe day of my holiday arrived, but I wasn’t looking forward to it. I had little money and had only been able to afford to stay with my Aunt Rosa in Spain. So, I wasn’t really excited as I knew exactly what it was going to be like: lots of noisy cousins , and Aunt Rosa begging me to take her for a ride.After I had checked in, I made my way slowly to the departure gate. As I was waiting to board the plane, I kept thinking about my ideal holiday destination: Jamaica, with its long, sandy beaches and crystal clear water.As soon as the plane took off, I fell fast asleep and only woke to the sound of the announcement: “Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten you seat belts, as we will shortly be landing in Kingston.” I froze in my seat. Was I dreaming? Kingston? Jamaica?I had boarded the wrong plane!Immediately after the plane landed, I explained the situation to the authorities. It seems there were also three other passengers heading for Spain. Apparently it had been the airline’s fault, since the flight numbers for Spain and Jamaica were exactly the same! Therefore, with no flight back to London for a week, the airline had no choice but to pay for our stay.So there I was, lying on the beach, enjoying the music and the marvelous food of Jamaica! As for Aunt Rosa, I suppose she just had to live without me!1. Why did the writer choose to spend her holiday with her aunt in Spain?A. She missed her cousins very much.B. Her aunt begged her to go there.C. She could hardly afford any better trip.D. Spain was her ideal destination.2. In the story, the writer ended up _________.A. flying to London immediatelyB. heading for Spain from JamaicaC. complaining to the authoritiesD. enjoying a free beach holiday3. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. A Lucky MistakeB. A Terrible AdventureC. A Nice DreamD. A Well-Planned TripBSome people in Manchester, Britain, will soon be paying for goods and serviceswith so-called “smart” credit cards. These cards are more secure than the traditional magnetic-strip version and can be used to travel on buses, check bank accounts and do shopping.The Manchester project is one of the biggest smart card schemes in the world. Every time people use the cards on a bus or train, the fare is deducted (reduced) from the value of the card. When they have no credit left, the cards can be recharged at a local shop.A smart card looks just like a mormal plastic card but it has a silicon chip in it.It is possible for the same silicon chip to perform a number of different functions,so one plastic card in your pocket could do a large number of different jobs. The card has much more memory space than a magnetic-strip card,so many more things can be recoreded on it.There are two types of smart cards.One is the contact card which is used in the same way as a magnetic-strip card.Information is transferred by running the card through a narrow opening in an electronic reader. In the slot, electronic probes make contact with the magnetic-strip or silicon ship and read the information. The other type is the contactless smart card where the electronic reader communicates with the card by short-range radio waves. This makes the card quicker and more convenient to use because it does not have to leave your wallet. It is also more reliable as it is not easily influenced by scratches or dirt. However, the biggest advantage that smart cards have over magnetic-strip cards is that they are more secure. They are much more difficult to make than conventional cards and they have to be made by specially trained manufacturers. In addition, they have a large number of extra security features on them and if a smart card gets lost or stolen a quick phone-call to the distributor ensures that its individual number is made invalid and unreadable. This can be done more quickly than with a magnetic-strip card.1.A smart credit card can do many kinds of jobs because ____ .A. it is smartB. it is a plastic cardC. it has a silicon chip in itD. it can be recharged2. “ The cards can be recharged” m eans that ____ .A. the card can be put into a new charge of electricityB. the cards can be changed into new onesC. the cards can be put to use againD. the cards can be recycled3. What are the advantages of smart credit cards over traditional ones?A. they can store more informationB. they are more secureC. they are more convenient to useD. all of the above4.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Contactless cards are more convenient to use than contact onesB. Smart cards are more expensive to manufacturerC. By means of long-range radio waves contactless cards can communicate with the electronic readerD. A smart credit card and a normal plastic card are the same thingCFor some reason we were reminded that we primates(灵长目) need love. Kim Bard of the University of Portsmouth in England and her colleagues carried out a study on 46 baby chimpanzees orphans(黑猩猩孤儿), which had lost their mothers. The study showed that primate babies that have tight relationships with mother figures do much better on cognitive (认知的 ) tests than babies who only grew up with peers (同伴), but this is not breaking news. In fact, it ' s old news.In the 1950s, Harry Harlow did a series of experiments with baby monkeys that showed. that lack of love and comfort makes for a crazy monkey.Harlow constructed a cage that included a wire monkey "mother" with a plastic face. Then he equipped the "mother" with a milk bottle .The cage also had another wire "mother" who was covered with soft cloth. The baby monkeys spent all their time with the cloth "mother" arid only went to the wire "mother" to feed.Harlow's monkey experiment was important because, at the time, child care experts, and everybody's grandmother had a "no touch, no comfort" policy toward children. They advised parents not to respond to crying babies. They thought that babies should sleep alone to become independent, and for God's sake put that kid down.But Harlow's work changed that policy. Mothers were soon permitted to have their babies next to them in the hospital.The current chimp research based on Harlow's work shows that mother's lovedoesn't just make for a psychologically(糖神上地) healthy child, it also makes for a smart child.The highly raised chimps do better than those that are not loved, and the well-raised chimps do even better than human kids on IQ tests.We are primates, social animals which need love. We need to be held and talked to and made to feel that at least one person wants to be with us all the time.1. The study Kim Bard and his colleagues didA. included 46 baby and mother monkeysB. is nothing new to people about the findingsC. showed that many chimpanzees lack of love when they were youngD. showed many chimpanzees had good relationship with their mothers2. Harlow built two "mothers" for baby,.monkeys to _______A. make them live comfortablyB. let them have more choicesC. give them more love D make comparison well3. Which of the following can we infer from the passage?A. Well--raised chimps are better than people in IQ.B. Sometimes it's not wrong to have no touch and no comfort to babies.C. Chimps growing up in cages are less smarter than chimps growing up in wild.D. Babies who sleep with mothers tend to be cleverer than babies sleep alone.4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Love makes kids smarterB. Primates need loveC. No touch, no comfortD. How to develop cognitive abilitiesDJacob’s Pillow Dance FestivalWhere : Becket,MassachusettsWhen: June 15---- Aug.24Each summer,this influential dance center presents a number of classes and performances by more than 50 companies from around the world. Highlights(最精彩的部分)this season include the Dance Theater of Harlem’s production of Alvin Ailey’s “The Lark Ascending”, which opens the festival.Many events are free.Ticketed performances start at $22. .

AI’m a real book lover. Every time my friends visit me, my nose is buried in a book. Wheprever I go, I always have a book with me. Novels, history books, stories about peole, journals and news—I read them all and I’ve learnt a lot, too. For example, many things in life happen for the best even if we don’t like or understand them.Why is reading such an enjoyable pastime for me? I probably first learned about it from my parents. My mother read to me at night in my childhood and bought me picture books. The greatest gift she has given me is a love for reading. And it will be a life-long habit.No one ever asked me why I liked to read. They just saw me and asked, “Oh? Is that for school work?” And I just shook my head, “No. It’s just for fun.” While reading a good book, I can totally forget myself and fly to another world. It’s like exploring through someone’s eyes, which is just as exciting as watching a movie.Reading is also necessary in order to learn about writing, to improve my use of words and phrases and broaden my knowledge. What a pity to see our imagination disappear, for we don’t exercise it often. Reading can even be good for one’s health, I think. Everyone should read sad stories that make us cry and also books with humor that make us laugh out loud!21. In the fourth paragraph, the author thinks reading can ____.A. make his parents happyB. finish his school workC. improve writing and broaden knowledgeD. help him understand some movies22.

What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Why do I have few friends?B. What are my life habits?C. Why do I love reading?D. Why do things happen for the best?BLike most English children, I learned foreign language at school. When I made my first visit to the United States, I was sure I could have a nice easy holiday without any language problem. But how wrong I was.At the American airport, I was looking for a public telephone to tell my friend Danny that I had arrived. A worker asked if he could help me. “Yes.” I said, “I want to give my friend a ring.” “Well, that’s nice. Are you getting married?” he asked. “No,” I replied. “I just want to tell her on the phone I have arrived.” “Oh,” he said, “There is a phone downstairs on the first floor.” “But we’re on the first floor now,” I said. “Well, I don’t know what you are taking about. Maybe you aren’t feeling too well after your journey”, he said. “You just go and w ash up, and you will feel a lot better.” And he went off, leaving me wondering where on earth I was. At home we wash up after a meal to get the cups and plates clean .How can I wash up at an airport?At last we did meet .She explained the misunderstanding: Americans say “to give someone a call,” but we English say “to give somebody a ring”. When we say “to wash your hands”, they say “to wash up “. And Englishman start numbering from the ground floor, so the first floor is the second for Americans.62. The w riter’s friend is an _____________________.A. EnglishwomanB. EnglishmanC. American girlD. American boy63.

The director of the movie Peter Jackson first read the novel on a train when he was just seventeen.Indiana Jones: The Complete Adventure CollectionIndiana Jones and travel are inseparable(不可分开的).

Stress is what you feel when you are worried about something. When you are under stress, you may feel angry, sad, scared, or afraid —all this can give you a stomachache or a headache. In modern society, most people are under the higher stress than ever before.There are different kinds of stress. Some kinds of stress are good and others are bad. Good stress may happen when someone asks you to answer questions in class or when you have to give a report. This kind of stress can help you to finish thingsbetter. Under this stress, you will find yourself have more motivation and energy to study.However, bad stress can happen if the stress lasts too long. You may not feel well if a family mem ber is sick, if you’re having problems at school, or if anything else makes you upset every day. That kind of stress isn’t going to help you.The best way to keep stress away is to have a balanced life.

2016年秋高一年英语寒假作业(三)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)阅读下列短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的选项中,选出最佳选项。
AFor 52 years my father got up at 5:30 am every morning, went to work, and returned home at 5:30 pm. I never saw my father stayed home from work ill, nor did I ever see my father lay down to take a nap. He had no hobbies, other than taking care of his family. All he asked from me, his daughter, was to help him while he was repairing something, so we could have some time to talk.For 22 years, after I left home for college, my father called me at 9:00 am every Sunday. Nine years ago when I bought my first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours a day for three days painting my house. He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. All he asked for was a glass of iced tea. Five years ago, at age 71, my father spent five hours putting together a swing set for my daughter.On the morning of January 16, 1996, my sister telephoned me: my father was in the hospital with an aneurysm(动脉瘤) in Florida. I got on an airplane immediately, and on the way I realized that I hadn't communicated with him as much as I'd always wanted to. I vowed(发誓) that when I arrived, I would have a long talk with him.I arrived in Florida at 1:00 am, only to find that my father, at the age of 76, had passed away at 9:12 pm. This time it was he who did not have time to talk, or time to wait for me.21. From the first paragraph we can infer (推断) that the author's father ______.A. was a good driverB. had many hobbiesC. sometimes fell illD. was in good health22. The underlined phrase "other than" in the first paragraph has the same meaning as "______".A. withoutB. includingC. exceptD. due to23. According to the last paragraph, we can know that the author's father was bornin ______.A. 1920B. 1918C. 1916D. 192224. The author wrote the article in order to ______.A. praise her fatherB. remember her fatherC. show her father was healthyD. let her father be knownBIt was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries.Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were s ome people elsewhere who liked to eat frog’s legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was to catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the frogs and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were a ble to dream of a better future. But the dream didn’t last long.The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and there seemed to be more insects around lately.The villagers decided that they couldn’t just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides (杀虫剂) and medicines. Soon there was no money left.Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn’t been useless. They had been doing an important job—eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading (传播) diseases.Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.25. From Paragraph 1 we learn that the villagers __________.A. worked very hard for centuriesB. were poor but satisfiedC. dreamed of having a better lifeD. lived a different life from their forefathers26.

What is the main idea of the text?A. Happiness comes from peaceful life in the country.B. Health is more important than money.C. The harmony (和谐) between man and nature is important.D. Good old day will never be forgotten.CToday,we are told,children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air.Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV—they seem to be living in a virtual world.They have lost touch with nature.But now 400 organizations in the UK,from playgroups to the National Health Service,are encouraging children to have some “wild time”.They want kids to exchange at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time to play outside.Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city,they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad.They need to be shown what to do and where to go.Andy Simpson from National Health Service says,“We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ developm ent,independence and creativity,by giving wild time”.So in spite of the complicated world that young people grow up in now,it seemsthat going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need.David Bond from Project Wild Thing says,“We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine,freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted”.This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe,like me,and it has made you think about putting on your boots, getting outdoors and recalling your childhood.There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!29.

I had never met him before although I had heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could understand was that someone called Milly had had an accident.

I had been drivingfor at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. “She meant more to me than anyone...even my own wife!” he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal(丑闻). I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn (厩). “I wouldn’t leave her out in the cold!” he said.Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground. “She was such a good cow! I wouldn’t let anyone but a doctor touch her!” he said, and burst into tears again.33. What do we know about Milly from the story?A. She was the farmer’s wife.B. She had an accident.C.

AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn’t fit.I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day late, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t got any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static (静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually,this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.1. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A. He got an older model than he had expected.B. He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C. He could have bought it at a lower price.D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.2.Which of the following can best replace the phrase”signed off”in Paragraph 1?A. ended all their programsB. provided fewer channelsC. changed to commercialsD. showed all-night movies3. How did the author finally get his TV set working again?A. By shaking and hitting it.B. By turning it on and off.C. By switching channels.D. By having it repaired.4. How does the another sound when telling the story ?A. CuriousB. AnxiousC. CautiousD. HumorousBYour house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情)when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness. Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.Don’t forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里)per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turnon relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes, Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass thana tall, skinny glass.5. The text is especially helpful for those who care about_______.A. their home comfortsB. their body shapeC. house buyingD. healthy diets6. A home environment in blue can help people_________.A. digest food betterB. reduce food intakeC. burn more caloriesD. regain their appetites7. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?A.

Effects of Self-ConsciousnessD. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?CMore student than ever before are taking a gap-year (间隔年)before going to university. It used to be called the “year off” between school and university. The gap-year phenomenon originated (起源) with the months left over to Oxbridgeapplicants between entrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.This year, 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance provided by University and College Admissions Service(UCAS).That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony Higgins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education. “Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, and complete, their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,” he said.But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of Students(NUS), argued that the increase is evidence of student had ship – young people are being forced into earning money before finishing their education. “New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university up to £15,000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree.NUS statistics show that over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacation periods,” he said.9.
