There, a school teacher asked the youth his name. “J.C” he replied. She taught he had said “Jesse”, and he had a new name.Owens ran his first race at age 13. After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part-time so as to pay for his education. As a second –year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event . He did try, and the results are in the record book.The stage was set for Owens’ victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African American winners.“It was all right with me, ”he said years later. “I didn’t go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone call from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.Owens’ Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles, and dogs.“Sure, it bothered me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”In time, however, his gold medals changed his life. “They have kept me alive over the years,” he once said, “Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard. ”56. Owens got his other name “Jesse” when ________.A. he went to Ohio State UniversityB. his teacher made fun of himC. his teacher took “J. C.” for “Jesse”D. he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet57. In the Big Ten meet, Owens _______.A. hurt himself in the backB. succeeded in setting many recordsC. tried every sports event but failedD. had to give up some events58. We can infer form the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that timebecause_______.A. he was not of the right raceB. he was the son of a poor farmerC. he didn’t shake hands with HitlerD. he didn’t talk to the US president on the phone59. When Owens says “They have kept me alive over the years,” he means thatmedals_____A. have been changed for money to help him live onB. have made him famous in the USC. have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in lifeD. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs60. Which of the following is a suitable title for the test?A. Jesse Owens, a Great American AthleteB. Golden Moment, a Life-time StruggleC. Making a Living as a SportsmanD. How to Be a Successful AthleteBA “dark horse” is one that shows unexpected racing speed and comes in first, even though the experts said he had little chance of winning.In politics, an unknown candidate (候选人)for office who wins a nomination (提名) or election is called a “dark horse”.British Prime Minister Benjamin Disrael is believed to have been the first to use the phrase. In his novel, “The Young Duke” published in1831. Disrael described a horse race and told how the two top choices fell behind, while “a dark horse” which had never been thought of rushing past the grandstand in a sweeping triumph.From racing to politics was a short step. As a political phrase, “dark horse ” appeared for the first time in the national Democratic Party congress of 1844. The “dark horse ” was James Knox Polk who became the 11th President of the United States.Polk had been the leader of the House of Representatives from 1835 to 1839. He had also been Governor of the state of Tennessee. But as a national leader he was considered a political nobody.Nevertheless, he surprisingly won the Democratic nomination and was elected President.Martin Van Buren of New York, a former President, seemed sure of getting the nomination. But he opposed making the territory (领土) of Texas part of the United States as another state. He was against it because there was slavery in Texas. Van Buren did not want another slave state in the Union. As a result, he lost support among those Democrats who supported slavery.At the 1884 congress, Van Buren could not get enough votes to win the nomination. The congress got into trouble. Therefore, the Democratic leaders decided that the only wise thing would be to run a “dark horse”, a man who could unite the party.And so, one of the party leaders, George Bancroft, proposed the name of James Knox Polk. He won, and the party united behind him, And he defeated his opponent, Henry Clay ofthe Wing Party.After the 1844 congress, the “dark horse ”candidates became an established fact of national political life.One historian said, “The invention of the dark horse was in itself a remarkable product of our professional politics.” This made it possible for party leaders to choose candidates who were not tied to certain ideas. Therefore, they represented nothing and had developed few enemies.61. The term “dark horse ” is often used to refer to _______.A. a horse that can be in the lead all the timeB. a horse that can attracts attention for its dark colorC. a person that people think the first to succeedD. a person who achieves some goal unexpectedly62. The author introduced the novel “The Young Duke” with the intention that_____.A. he would come to tell us about a “dark horse” in politics.B. he would point out how the nobleman appreciated horse racingC. he would tell us how the dark horse rushed past the two top horsesD. he would describe the fierce competition in the party63. The failure of Martin Van Buren in the nomination lay in the fact that_______.A. he opposed the territory of Texas becoming a part of the United StatesB. he had already been president of the United States for yearsC. he couldn’t get support from the Democrats who would keep slaveryD. he had made few achievements during his presidency64. According to the author, Polk’s being nominated and elected President is consideredentirely_______ .A. a good choiceB. a lucky chanceC. a difficult processD. an expected resultCThe atmosphere and oceans are not the only parts of the environment being damaged. Rain forests are being quickly destroyed as well, and their survival is questionable. E.O. Wilson, a biologist at Harvard, called the depletion(枯竭) of rain forest areas “the greatest extinction since the end of the age of dinosaurs”.Unlike some environmental issues, rain forest depletion has fortunately received significant public and media attention. Despite the opposition to the cutting down of rain forests, the problem continues. Every year, Brazil chops down an area of forest the size of the state of Nebraska. In addition to the Amazon’s rain forests, many other forests are being cut down as well. In Indonesia, Zaire, Papua-new Geinea, Malaysia, Burma, the Philippines, Peru, Colombia, Bolivia, and Venezuela, rain forests that were once great have been lost.According to some estimates, 50 million acres of rain forests are cut down every year.The United Nations says the figure is closer to 17 million acres. The World Wildlife Fund says every minute, 25 to 50 acres are cut or burned to the ground.The world’s growing population has been a primary reason of rain forest destruction. More people need land to live on and wood products to consume. Limiting population growth may be the first in a series of steps that would limit the destruction of the rain forests.65．In the opinion of the author, _______ are being destroyed terribly at present.A. the rain forestsB. the oceansC. the atmosphereD. all the above66. Why did Wilson regard “the greatest extinction since the end of the age of dinosaurs” tobe the depletion of rain forest areas?A. The rain forests’ survival is questionable.B. The writer did not give explanation in detail.C. Many wild animals and beasts will extinct as a result of the depletion of rain forests.D. It will become warmer and warmer with the depletion of rain forests.67. The word “chop down ” in the second paragraph means _______.A. cut downB. clearC. make room forD. destroy68. Why did the depletion of rain forests result from the world’s growing population?a.People liked cutting down large amounts of rain forests to make all kinds offurniture.b. People need more land to live on.c. People must make more room to build all kinds of buildings to live in .d. People need more wooden products to use.A. a and cB. a and bC. b and dD. c and d69. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. The author thought the oceans’ survival is questionable.B. Luckily people and mass media all paid special attention to the depletion of rainforestsC. People have stopped cutting down rain forests because of the opposition of mostpeople .D. The United Nations says about 50 million acres of rain forests are cut down everyyear.DWeekly WatchAnti-Japanese War marked nationwideChinese people throughout the country held activities on September 18 in remembrance of the outbreak of the Anti- Japanese War (1937-1945).For three minutes, loud air-defense sirens simultaneously sounded at 21:18 on the night of September 18 in the cities of Harbin, Changchun and Shenyang in northeastern China.A symposium was held in Nanjing, where Japanese troops killed 300,000 soldiers and civilians during the Nanjing Massacre in December 1937.Rainstorm kills 19Rainstorm hit Sichuan Province recently, leaving 19 people dead and 11 missing. The storms, which have affected 22 cities and counties, have brought rainfall ranging from 50mmto 250mm.Traffic and power supplies were shut off in some affected areas, forcing local factories, shops and schools to close. A number of roads, farmlands, bridges, storage and irrigation facilities were damaged by the storm.A group of U.S. police officers visited Guizhou Province on September 17 and exchanged views with local police officers on anti-drug addiction work.The delegation visited an anti-drug addiction center under the Guiyang City Police Bureau, and talked with people who voluntarily came to the center to overcome their addictions.Sheriff Harry Lee, head of the delegation , said China has had some experiences that the United States can learn from in assisting and educating people who want to stop using drugs.70.

To stay healthy , we must eat more fruits and vegetables and sweet potatoes are a great source of beta carotene(胡萝卜素)and other carotenoids. According to a study of the diets of almost 90,000 nurses, eating about one cup a day of fruits and vegetables rich in carotenoids (which the body turns into vitamin A) can cut you risk of stoke in half and reduce your risk of heart disease by 22 percent. Other research suggests beta carotene protects against breast, lung and stomach cancers.Beta carotene is the most famous member of the carotenoids family. In fact, a medium-sized sweet potato contains nearly 12mg of beta carotene(anti-aging experts usually suggest 6 to 11 mg per day). Sweet potatoes are also a low-fat source of vitamin E. Research has linked high E diets with a lower risk of heart disease. This vitamin pill in an orange jacket also packs a vitamin C punch--- it has more C than apricots (a kind of fruit). Research suggests that vitamin C protects against ailments ranging from cataracts (an eye disease) to cancer. In addition, a UCLA(University of California, Los Angeles) study linked high vitamin C dietswith a longer life . Recent studies have showed that antioxidant vitamins C, E and beta carotene fight a fierce battle against free radicals(自由基)，which cause cell damage and lead to various illness. Therefore, to keep fit, eat more sweet potatoes.73. According to the test, there exists a lot of _______ in sweet potatoes.A. fiber, beta carotene, other carotenoids, vitamin E and C.B. beta carotene, other carotenoids, fiber, vitamin A and EC. vitamin A, beta carotene, fiber, vitamin E and CD. beta carotene, other carotenoids, vitamin A and E74.

Young people are not necessary more creative than the old people.B. Most people take a conceptual approach when thinking.C. One's creative peak is related to their job type.D. Conceptual and experimental thinkers hit their peaks at different times.13.What does the underlined word "conventional" mean in context？______A. Easy.B. Unusual.C. Traditional.D. Appropriate.14.What do we know about experimental thinkers？______A. Their talents usually bloom in their 20s.B. They are good at doing experiments.C. They work out new methods based on experience.D. They are more successful than conceptual thinkers.15.What would Weinburg probably agree with？______A. It's difficult to find one's talent in later years.B. More research needs to be done about creative peaks.C. Conceptual thinkers could be more successful in the art field.D. Experimental thinkers from other fields may be most successful in their 50s.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）Why Is Sorting Important When Recycling？We all agree that we should recycle more at home,in the office or when out and about. (1) Consequently,they can be collected and taken to the right place for recycling.This is what the process of sorting allows us to do.(2) And the effective sorting needs to happen first,in our own home and second,in sortingplants to which waste is collected.When you put a plastic bottle in the right recycling bag or bin,you are helping sort recyclables so that the right material can be fed into the right recycling process.If sorting does not happen,a lot of recyclable materials can end up in landfills.It will lead to valuable resources lost from our economy.(3) For instance,in Brussels consumers put plastic packaging,cans and beverage cartons inblue bags designed for recyclable packaging；paper in yellow bags for recycling；and glass needs to be taken to specific collection bins.Somewhat differently,in Vienna（Austria），citizens can expect their paper,metal,glass and plastic to be separately collected indifferent weeks of the year. (4)Once recyclable materials are collected from your home,they are further sorted inspecialized facilities which ensure the quality of the recycling process. (5)Traditionally,sorting has been done either manually with workers sorting what can be recycled and picking out the materials to be discarded ormechanically.Today,however,new sorting technologies are being developed in order to speed up the process of sorting but to also cause better results.Exciting technologies using magnets or optical systems are being used to effectively sort materials so more of it can be recycled.A.For effective recycling we need effective sorting.B.Packaging at work is the first step towards recycling.C.This is where different sorting techniques come into play.D.So citizens need to be aware of their local collection system.E.Collection systems can be very different from country to country.F.The rest was land-filled or burned even though they could have been recycled or reused.G.But for materials to be recycled,they first need to find their way to the right wastestream.16.

2021年大名县第三中学高三英语月考试卷及参考答案
2021年大名县第三中学高三英语月考试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读（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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AMy mother and her best friend Martha were in their mid-80s when they saw each other for the last time.They had been friends since they were 18, both of them students atWesleyanCollegeinMacon,Georgia. My mother was the dreamy one, who loved to read and dream herself as an actress. Martha, however, was more practical. I’m not sure what they had in common except that they trusted each other, helped each other, and stayed in touch even when life separated them.Martha spent most of her adulthood inAtlanta, where she raised three kids. My mother, meanwhile, raised eight children, and moved many times during her financially and emotionally troubled marriage, which included several months living with her family inseedymotels.I sensed my mother hid her troubles from most people, but not from Martha, and I knew from my mother that Martha carried her own sorrows. Their willingness to share sorrow without judgment was part of what bond them.The best friendships can also withstand (抵挡) periods without communication. They didn’t communicate a lot — this was before the ease of emails and texts and yet I knew they were always in each other’s minds.One day in 2008, 1 drove my mother to Martha’s house for their final visit. The moment my mother hobbled (蹒跚) into Martha’s house, they threw their arms around each other and went to sit out in the garden, laughing until they were dizzy. I snapped a photo, and spotted something joyous, young and free on my mom, which existed only in the presence of her best friend.Two years later, my mother died. Of all the people I had to tell, Martha was the hardest because I felt it erased her past. After that, we lost touch. But I still think of her and how that friendship strengthened my mother.1. What does the underlined word “seedy” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. largeB. dirtyC. urbanD. bright2. The author’s mother and Martha had a lasting friendship partly because they________.A. were willing to shareB. were constantly in touchC. had much in commonD. had a likeness in personality3. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To tell the importance of friendship.B. To express his gratitude to his mother.C. To share his standard of choosing a friend.D. To praise the friendship between Martha and his mother.BWhen you say the word donkey, whatthings come to your mind? A few people might say they’re cute, but the majority think they’re stubborn, dumb and all-round less capable than their horse s.However, this wasn’t the case for a recently unearthed ancient Chinese noblewoman who was unexpectedly found buried with her donkeys. Published in the journal Antiquity in March, Chinese archaeologists (考古学家) first discovered the tomb in Xi’an, Shaanxi, in 2012. The team examined the remains and identified the body as Cui Shi, a Tang Dynasty high-born lady who died in 878 AD.Speaking to Science Magazine in 2012, the study’s co-author, Fiona Marshall, said the finding caused confusion as “donkeys … are not associated with high-status people”.However, following years of further research, the team discovered artworks and artifacts that showed a sport known as “Lvju”. This was similar to modern-day polo (马球)and was popular among noble (高贵的) women at the time. They preferred to use donkeys instead of full-sized horses for safety reasons, due to their smaller size and slower speed.Speaking to CNN, Marshall later said, “Historical documents also showed that ladies of the late Tang court loved to play donkey polo.”At that time in Chinese history, animals were often placed in tombs so that they could be used for a specific purpose in the afterlife. The study determined that Cui Shi likely requested that her beloved donkeys be buried with her, so that she could continue her favorite sport after death. In total, three donkeys were found inside her tomb with riding gear (装备), including stirrups (马镫). “This context provides evidence that the donkeys in her tomb were for polo, not transport,” lead author Hu Songmei of the Shaanxi Academy of Archaeology told Science Magazine.Before the study, it was believed that donkeys were only used to carry loads, but now it may be time to see them as a sign of achieving high social status(地位), well, in ancient times.4. What do most people think of donkeys, according to the text?A. They are as adorable(可爱的) as horses.B. They are stubborn and not so capable.C. They were necessary in ancient sports.D. They were a sign of high social status.5. Why did Fiona Marshall feel confused when she discovered the donkeys?A. She didn’t connect donkeys with nobles.B. She hadn’t seen donkeys in ancient tombs before.C. She didn’t expect to find donkeys in a woman’s tomb.D. She didn’t understand why animals were in human tombs.6. What do we know about the sport “Lvju” from the text?A. Horses were preferred in Lvju.B Lvju was similar to modern-day soccer.C. Lvju was popular among common people.D. Donkeys were preferred in the sport for safety.7. The donkeys were found in the tomb of Cui Shi probably because _______.A. she intended to use them for transport after deathB. her family didn’t want her to be lonely after deathC. she wanted to continue to play Lvju after deathD. noble women needed donkeys to maintain their dignityCYou’re in a crowd of people who are all asking for the same thing. How do you make your voice heard above the rest? Be different. Don’t shout. Lisa, 25, was waiting to board a plane flying fromLondontoAustriafor Christmaswhen the flight was cancelled.“There were about a hundred of us unable to leave,” she says. “Everyone else was shouting at the airport staff. Instead of joining in, I walked up to the man behind the ticket desk very quietly and said, ‘This must be so awful for you! I don’t know how you deal with these situations—it’s not even your fault. I could never handle it as well as you are.’ Without my even asking, he found me a seat on another airline with an upgrade to first class. He was happy to do a favor forsomeone who was appreciative instead of unfriendliness.”Flattery (恭维) is an essential element of the sweet-talk strategy. “It’s human psychology that stroking a person’s ego (自我) with a few well-directed praises makes them want to prove you right,” says apsychologist. “Tell someone they’re pretty and they’ll instantly fix their hair; praise their sense of humor and they’ll tell a joke.”You need help and there’s ly no reason that the person will want to lend a hand. Allison, 26. a lawyer, realized she’d made a huge mistake on a batch of documents. “The only way I could fix the problem was to get the help of a colleague who I knew didn’t like me,” she said.Allison then went to the woman’s office and explained her problem. “As I was saying to the boss the other day you’re the only person who would know how to handle a situation like this, what would you suggest I do?” “Feeling pumped up (鼓励), she set about helping me and we finished the job on time, and she was happy to help.” Allison said.8. Whatwould have happened at the airport according to paragraph 1?A. The departure hall was filled with noise.B. Someone screamed just lo be different.C. The passengers waited on board patiently.D. The airport stuff were rude to the passengers.9. Why did the man put Lisa on another airline?A. He admired Lisa’s beauty.B. He appreciated her attitude.C. He was ready to help others.D. He was blamed for the cancellation.10. What is the third paragraph mainly about?A. The potential benefits of ego.B. The strategy to start small talk.C. The great importance of flattery.D. The value of humor in daily life.11. What can we learn about Allison’s colleague?A. She was a popular lawyer.B. She was always ready to help others.C. She always got praise from Allison.D. She did a great favor for Allison eventually.DI’ve long believedthat positive living isn’t about being optimistic every minute of every day. That kind of permanently happy state can’t be the goal, because it’s impossible to achieve.It turns out that psychological research finds true happiness comes from authentic positivity, and authentic positivity comes from emotional flexibility.Being flexible emotionally means being open to the full range of emotional experiences, including the challenging ones like anger, disappointment and sadness. Emotional flexibility means being able to shift behaviors and mindsets to meet different situational needs, and adapting when circumstances change.However, emotionally flexible people are not chameleons (变色龙) whose outlook changes based on which way the wind is blowing. Instead, emotional flexibility is a skill that helps people judge the complexities of daily life,and stick to their deeply held values.I’ve learned a new word that I’d like to share with you: Eudaimonia (幸福感). Eudaimonia is the opposite of hedonism (享乐主义), the idea that happiness comes from the constant pursuit of pleasure and avoidance of pain. Eudaimonia, by contrast, encourages us to pursue meaning and authenticity, growth and honest joy. Both are philosophical approaches to happiness, and recent psychological thought is leaning toward eudaimonia as a more sustainable, satisfying model.Eudaimonia was first mentioned by Aristotle, who got the term from the Greek word “daimon,” which means “true nature.” Tome, walking a positive path means accepting that we each have positive true nature and permanent goodness. What we learn from the concept of eudaimonia is that we are best equipped to realize this nature when we are emotionally honest and flexible.12. What is the author’s belief?A. People should live alone.B. People can’t always be happy.C. People can’t always achieve their goals.D. People should pursue true achievements.13. What do enmotionally flexible people commit themselves to?A. Their strongly believed values.B. Their different needs.C. Permanent happiness.D. The pursuit of hedonism.14. How can people gain eudaimonia according to the author?A. By being honest to others.B. By changing true nature.C. By keeping realstically optimistic.D. By pursuing pleasure constantly.15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. What is the meaning of eudaimonia?B. What should we do to keep positive?C. How can we keep happy forever?D. Why can’t people be happy all the time?第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Often called the “Oscars for dogs”, the award recognizes dogs who make extremely great contributions to society.The competition of 2020 attracted over 400 entries（参赛者）from across the country. These heroic dogs have gone above the call of duty, saving lives, comforting the ill and aged and reminding us of the powerful, age-old ties between animals and people. While all were impressive, it was tiny MacKenzie who wonthe judges' hearts.MacKenzie's growth was not easy. Born with a mouth disability, she had to be fed through a tube（管子）for the first year of her life. Despite her own struggles, she always seemed to think more of other animals in need. “Never have I seen such a will to live. Though sick, she carefully looked after the baby animals at the rescue（救助）center,” said her caretaker.A life-saving operation performed in 2014 gave MacKenzie the ability to eat independently. The seven-year-old chihuahua is now working for the Mia Foundation, an organization that rescues and nurses animals with inborn disabilities. The chihuahua does an excellent job and has raised various animals. She plays nurse, cleans, comforts and hugs them, acting as their mother and teaching them how to socialize, play and have good manners.In addition to her role as an animal caretaker, MacKenzie also visits schools to educate kids about the importance of accepting physical differences in both animals and people.

Touching Stories between MacKenzie and PeopleD. 2020 American Hero Dog: A TinyChihuahua.CWolves have a certain undeserved reputation: fierce, dangerous, good forhunting down deer and farmers’ livestock. However, wolves have a softer, more social side, one that has been embraced by a heart-warming new initiative.In a bid to save some of Europe’s last wolves, scientists have explored the willingness of these supposedly fierce creatures to help others of their kind. Female wolves, the scientists have discovered, make excellent foster parents to wolf cubs that are not their own. The study, published in Zoo Biology, suggests that captive-bred wolfcubs(幼兽)could be placed with wild wolf families, boosting the wild population.The gray wolf was once the world’s most widely distributed mammal, but it became extinct as a result of widespread habitat destruction and the deliberate killing of wolves suspectedof preying on livestock. Fear and hatred of the wolf have since become culturally rooted, fuelled by myths, fables and stories.In Scandinavia, the gray wolf is endangered, the remaining population found by just five animals. As a result, European wolves are severely inbred and have little geneticvariability（变异性）, making them vulnerable to threats, such as outbreaks of disease that they can’t adapt to quickly. So Inger Scharis and Mats Amundin of Linkoping University, in Sweden, started Europe’s first gray wolf-fostering program. They worked with wolves keptat seven zoos across Scandinavia. Eight wolf cubs between four and six days old were removed from their natural parents and placed with other wolf packs in other zoos. The foster mothers accepted the new cubs placed in their midst.The welfare of the foster cubs and the wolves’ natural behavior were monitored using a system of surveillance cameras. The foster cubs had a similar growth rate as their step siblings in the recipient litter, as well as their biological siblings in the source litter. The foster cubs had a better overall survival rate, with 73% surviving until 33 weeks, than their biological siblings left behind, of which 63% survived. That rate of survival is similar to that seen in wild wolf cubs. Scientists believe that wolves can recognize their young, but this study suggests they can only do so once cubs are somewhere between three to seven weeks of age.If captive-bred cubs can be placed with wild-living families, which already have cubs of a similar age, not onlywill they have a good chance of survival, but they could help dramatically increase the diversity of the wild population, say the researchers. Just like the wild wolves they would join, these foster cubs would need protection from hunting. Their arrival could help preserve the future of one of nature’s most iconic and polarizing animals.8. What’s the theme of the passage?A. Giving wolf cubs a new lifeB. Foster wolf parents and foster cubsC. The fate of wild wolvesD. Changing diversity of wild wolves9. Which of the following flow chart best demonstrates the relationship between the wolves?A. B.C. D.10. Which of the following statements is true?A. Female wolves are willing to raise wolf cubs of 3 to 7 weeks old.B. Foster cubs are accepted by foster parents and are well bred.C. Man’s hostile attitude towards wolves roots in myths, fables and stories.D. Foster cubs and their biological siblings have similar growth rate and survival rate.11. What’s the purpose of the research?A. To help wolves survive various threatsB. To improve wolves’ habitat and stop deliberate killingC. To save endangered wolves by increasing their populationD. To raise man’s awareness of protecting wolvesDMany of us were delighted to learn that a high school senior Kwasi Enin was accepted to all eight Ivy League universities. To our surprise, he wasn't excited as expected, but appeared extra calm. He announced that he would revisit the universities to find the best suitable in music or medicine. He also wanted to compare their financial aidpackages.Kwasi's success story is rare, but his reaction is not. After the admission letters arrive at home, students have 30 days to really think about what kind of school would help them grow as a person, which school would best prepare them for the future, and at which school they would be happiest. And they also have to think about whether they can afford the school they choose.But how to answer the questions about which school is the best suitable university? Some young people are attracted to large universities with great school spirit and a list of offerings. But besides those advantages, many of these universities focus on graduate work and research, with undergraduates taught mostly by part-time instructors. Others are attracted to smaller boarding schools with discussion-based classes. But some of these schools will have much limitation for students who want a high-energy city life experience.Many students today seem to think they should pick the university where they will get the diploma that will help them get the most highly paid job. This is a sad misunderstanding of what a college education should provide.A good college education should prepare them to overcome any difficulty andthrivein society. It helps them to form the habit of creative mind and spirit that will continue to develop far beyond their university years. So when you choose college, you should consider if it is filled with useful learning to help create new spaces for different possibilities of growth.12. What can we know about Kwasi Enin from paragraph 1?A. He was from a very poor family.B. He would choose the top university.C. He was too excited to calm himself at the good news.D. He considered his interests when choosing his university.13. What can you infer from paragraph 2?A. Few students can be admitted to university.B. Many students face the choices like Kwasi.C. Top universities are the first choice for most students.D. American students can afford their university by themselves.14. Which of the following can best explain the underlined word “thrive” in paragraph 4?A. FailB. SucceedC. ResearchD. Work15. What should the best university be like according to the text?A. Very large and have good instructors.B. Small boarding schools with discussion-based classes.C. It will offerthe diploma to get the most highly paid job.D. It will help continue to develop far beyond university years.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AThis story took place a long time ago. But it has been repeated time and time again. Everyone is moved by the true story.An old man was knocked down by a car and was taken to hospital. He was badly hurt, and during his few returns to consciousness, he repeatedly called for his son.None knew where his son was. A dirty letter was found in his pockets. The nurse learned that his son was a solider who was serving in North Carolina.The hospital called the Red Cross offices to find the young man. The young solider was rushed to the airport in time to catch the plane.It was evening when the young solider walked into the hospital. A nurse took him into the bedside of the old man.“Your son is here,” she said to the man. She had to repeat the words several times before the old man’s eyes opened. He dimly saw the young man and got great comfort. He reached out his hand. The young solider held the ol d man’s hand and offered words of hope.All through the night the young solider sat besides the bed. The nurse offered to watch instead of him for a while. He refused.At dawn the old man died. The nurse started to comfort him but the solider asked her, “Who was that old man?”“He was your father,” she answered.“No, he wasn’t.I never saw him before. I knew right away there was a mistake, but I also knew he needed his son, and his son just wasn’t here. I realized I was needed. So I stayed.”21. What is true about the old man?A. He was seriously injured and would die soon.B. He knew quite well what had happened to him.C. He once and again wanted to call his son.D. He was knocked dead near a hospital.22. How did people get to know something about his son?A. They guessed from the old man’s anxious expression on the face.B. They found him from the information on the letter.C. They found someone who knew the father and son.D. They found he worked in the Red Cross.23. When the old man and the young man met, ________.A. the old man wished the young man good luck in the futureB. the young man said something to comfort the old manC. the doctors and nurses felt it hopeful to save the old manD. they both recognized each other at once24. We know from this passage________.A. the Red Cross is something for people to find personsB. the young man knew he was wrongly called when he got on the planeC. the hospital had meant to save the old man with the young man’s coming butfailedD. the young man might have th e same name as the old man’s sonBThe Boy Made It!One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter form the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him. Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, tostay as warm as hecould.By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could — he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholaswas saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. In each episode(一期节目) of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area andhas to find his way out.When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.25. What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon?A. He got lost.B. He broke his skis.C. He hurt his eyesD. He caught a cold.26. How did Nicholas keep himself warm?A. He found a shelter.B. He lighted some branches.C. He kept on skiing.D. He built a snow cave.27. On Tuesday, Nicholas ______.A. returned to his shelter safelyB. was saved by a searcherC. got stuck in the snowD. stayed where he was28. Nicholas left Grylls a very deep impression because he ______.A. did the right things in the dangerous situationB. watched Grylls’ TV program regularlyC. created some tips for survivalD. was very hard-workingCFacial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures. For example, many people in Russia smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough. In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should not attempt to “read” people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.29. What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?A. Love.B. Politeness.C. Joy.D.

Habits and EmotionsDIn the United States alone, over 100 million cell-phones are thrown away each year. Cell-phones are part of a growing mountain of electronic waste like computers and personal digital assistants. The electronic waste stream is increasing three times faster than traditional garbage as a whole.Electronic devices contain valuable metals such as gold and silver. A Swiss study reported that while the weight of electronic goods represented by precious metals was relatively small in comparison to total waste, the concentration (含量) of gold and other precious metals was higher in so-called e-waste than in naturally occurring minerals.Electronic wastes also contain many poisonous metals. Even when the machines are recycled and the harmful metals removed, the recycling process often is carried out in poor countries, in practically uncontrolled ways which allow many poisonous substances to escape into the environment.Creating products out of raw materials creates much more waste material, up to 100 times more, than the material contained in the finished products. Consider again the cell-phone, and imagine the mines that produced those metals, the factories needed to make the box and packaging(包装) it came in. Many wastes produced in the producing process are harmful as well.The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes that most waste is dangerous in that "the production, distribution, and use of products — as well as management of the resulting waste —all result in greenhouse gas release.” Individuals can reducetheir contribution by creating less waste at the start —for instance, buying reusable products and recycling.In many countries the concept of extended producer responsibility is being considered or has been put in place as an incentive (动机) for reducing waste. If producers are required to take back packaging they use to sell their products, would they reduce the packaging in the first place?Governments’ incentive to require producers to take responsibility for the packaging they produce is usually based on money. Why, they ask, should cities or towns be responsible for paying to deal with the bubble wrap (气泡垫) that encased your television?From the gover nments’ point of view, a primary goal of laws requiring extended producer responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management from the government and tax-payers back to the producers.33. By mentioning the Swiss study, the author intends to tell us that _________ .A. the weight of e-goods is rather smallB.
