It is said a fish head is good for brain. If you eat one, you’ll become cleverer indeed. Pay only three pounds for one fish head.” The boy paid him three pounds and the fis herman cut off a fish head and handed it to him.A raw fish head is not good—not even for a hungry boy to eat but the boy ate it up in two gu lps.“Do you feel anything?” asked the fisherman.“Not in my head,” said the boy.The boy lay on the ground and thought. “One whole fish cos ts only two pounds. I had paid him three pounds for the fish h ead. Why couldn’t I have the whole fish for soup, a head for br ain and one pound left over?” He jumped up and shouted at t he fisherman. “You thief!

The boy paid three pounds. He should have had ________ __.A. a whole fishB. a fish head and one pound backC. a whole fish and one pound backD. a whole fish, a fish head and one pound backBRecently a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the e xercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of ev ery penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend th eir money, they can see what they really value in life.He says our relation with others often become clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you arevery good friends. But you’ll know him only when you ask t o lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stranger than ever before. Or it can s uddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person ma y say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.Since money is important to us, we consider those who pos sess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed so me millionaires in researching his book.Question: What is the most surprising thing you have disco vered about being rich, because you are a self-made man?Answer: The most surprising thing is why people give me s o much respect. I’m nothing. I don’t know much. All I am is ric h.People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for anygiven purposes in my life? In this book, the professor unco vered an important need in modern society; to bring back the i dea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money p lays an important role in the modern world, but expecting mon ey to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.24. According to the first paragraph, people haven’t realized _ _________.A. how important money is in their day-to-day lifeB. how one spends money shows what is important to himC. that money is more important than their philosophy of lifeD. that their understanding of life is more important than mone y25. The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money __________.A. is a good way to test your friendB. will do harm to your friendC. will strengthen your friendshipD. is a good way to break off your friendship26. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer i n the interview?A. He doesn’t feel that he is well educated.B. He doesn’t think he is a very important person.C. He doesn’t think being rich deserves so much attention.D. He doesn’t consider himself to be very successful.CBolivia has a population three and a half million .

The government and the industries are und er the control of the white people .The Indians today live in much the same way as their ancesto rs . Most of them are farmers . Many work in the mines , for mining is the most important industry in Bolivia . Of all the min ing products , tin is the most important , which makes up three -fourths of all Bolivia’s exports . The eastern slopes of the And es , since there are very few roads there , are fertile but not hi ghly developed . The two primary means of transportation are river boats and porters . East of the hill region are the great pl ains where tropical plants are grown . A serious problem for B olivia is the transport of food from the warm regions , where it is grown to the mountainous regions , where most of the people live .Bolivia gained its independence from Spain about a hundred years ago .

They learn langua ges, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics.Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a liv ing. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is t o show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to re ad and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside s chool by the students themselves.It is always more important to know how to study by oneself th an to memorize some facts or a formula. It is usually quite eas y to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galil eo didn’t get anything from school. But they were all so succe ssful. They invented so many things for mankind.The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. T hey read books that were not taught at school. They worked h ard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would as k many questions as they readand they did thousands of experiments.Above all, they knew how to use their brains.31.

AIt was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. Afterall, their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries.Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there weresome people elsewhere who liked to eat frog’s legs. However, they did not have enough frogsof 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 t hey were no use to the villagers.All they had to do was catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a betterfuture. But the dream didn’t last long.The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doingso well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and, there seemed to be moreinsects around lately.The villagers decided that they couldn’t just wait to see the crops failing and thechildren getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides(杀虫剂) and medicines. Soon there was no money left.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 diseases.Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square andlisten to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.21.

There’s plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reasonis that they share the sa me habits of eating too much and exercising too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢). In fact, although fat people consume 耗费 more energy than slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat! Keepinga diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.Exercise is boringWrong! Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively.The key is to develop a balanced and varied多样的program that ’s fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, takea difference route. If you do yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swimming, set yourself adistance or time challenge.No pain, no gainWrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is your body telling you something’s wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury.You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly,but this is adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly.

AI climbed Kilimanjaro with Lava Expeditions (探险队) during the rainy season.I flew to Nairobi in Kenya and spent several days there. At my hotel in NairobiI met the rest of the group with whom I would spend the next week. We all travelledon the bus together for a 6-hour journey into Tanzania and then Arusha, a quiet town.After we arrived at our hotel in Arusha, we had dinner and a few drinks. Then wewere introduced to more members including Taddeus Minja, the main guide, who wasvery experienced — climbing Kilimanjaro runs through the generations (代) of his family.The next day the Lava Expeditions members c hecked if we had the correct and enough clothing for our expedition on Kilimanjaro. Only one person needed to bring moreclothes.After that we set off, walking in the rain through the beauty of the rainforest,all the way to the first camp. I was happy the next few days as the view was sowonderful and changed every day. I suffered a little during the trip and I felt sotired. But the members of Lava Expeditions provided me with lots of encouragement, which was one of the best memories. Finally we reached the top of Kilimanjaro inbright blue skies.I felt excited about climbing Kilimanjaro and the feeling didn’t change duringmy trip. Lava Expeditions looked after me so well that I was deeply thankful fortheir help.1. What do we know about Taddeus Minja according to the passage?A. He organized the journey.B. He was the leader of Lava Expeditions.C. He was the manager of a hotel in Arusha.D. He had much knowledge about climbing mountains.2. How did Lava Expeditions help the author while climbing Kilimanjaro?A. By carrying bags for him.B. By offering food to him.C. By encouraging him.D. By teaching him climbing skills.3. What did the author think of his climbing Kilimanjaro?A. Tiring and disappointing.B. Tiring but happy.C. Dangerous but exciting.D. Dangerous and tiring.4. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A. To tell readers about Lava Expeditions.B. To give readers advice on climbing Kilimanjaro.C. To encourage more people to climb Kilimanjaro.D. To share his experience of climbing Kilimanjaro.BOne of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to havefriends, you have to be a friend. But how can you be a good friend at school?Listen —Listen when they are talking. Don’t say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes it’s not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.Help them —If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try to put them first, but make sure you don’t do everything they wantyou to do. Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes in case they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something theyneed.Be there for them — Try to make something for your friend to help make themfeel better in hard times. Making cards and encouraging them are among the nicestthings you can do for a friend. Marilyn Monroe, a famous U.S. actor, once said, “I often make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control. But if you can’t stay with meat my worst, you are sure not to deserve to be with me at my best.” Always remember this! If you don’t want to stay with your friends when they’re in hard times, then you don’t deserve to be with them when they’re having a good time!Make p lans —Try to make p lans with your friends. Go s hopping, go for ice cream, have a party, go to a movie and so on. Take time to know each other even better bydoing something you both enjoy. By planning things together, you both can have agood time. And you’ll remember these things when you’re all old!5. While your friend is talking to you about his or her feelings, you should _____.A. give him or her some adviceB. just listen unless askedC. calm him or her downD. share your feelings as well6. When we provide help for our friends, we should _____.A. try to do everything for themB. put them before ourselvesC. change their bad habits firstD. ignore their faults7. What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe’s words?A. Life without a friend is death.B. A friend is easier lost than found.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. A man is known by his friends.CWhen I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn't a goodstudent, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all thisas long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears inmy eyes.He listened to me quietly, then he asked.“Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn't you ever wonder what you're really like? Well, you now have that girl's opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn't change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clearpicture of myself.I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“That's just for you，”he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you haveto learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When s omething said about you is true, you'll find it will be of help to you. Our world is fullof people who think they know your duty. Don't shut your ears. Listen to them all,but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”Daddy's advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I've never had a betterpiece of advice.8.What did the father do after he had heard his daughter's complaint?A．He told her not to pay any attention to what her“enemy”had said.B．He criticized (批评) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings.C．He told her to write down all that her“enemy”had said about her and pay attention only to the things that were true.D．He refused to take the list and have a look at it.9.What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?A．Week by week she discovered more shortcomings of mine and pointed them out to me.B．She had made a list of my shortcomings and she kept on adding new ones to it so that it was growing longer and longer.C．I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.D．Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.10.Why did her father listen to her quietly?A．Because he believed that what her daughter's“enemy”said was mostly true.B．Because he had been so angry with his daughter's shortcomings that he wanted to show this by keeping silent for a while.C．Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment.D．Because he wasn't quite sure which girl was telling the truth.11.Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?A．Not an Enemy, but the Best FriendB．The Best Advice I've Ever HadC．My FatherD．My ChildhoodDGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learnedas children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance togo swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials(尝试)increase the length oftime we will remember it.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycleriding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We c ontinue to listento and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We n ot only learn but overlearn.The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception to the general rule thatwe forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on theexamination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.12.What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A．People remember well what they learned in childhood.B．Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C．Poem reading is a good way to learn words.D．Stories for children arc easy to remember.13.The author explains the law of overlearning by______.A．presenting research findingsB．selling down general rulesC．making a comparisonD．using examples14.What does the word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A．Commonly accepted rules.B．The multiplication tables.C．Things easily forgotten.D．School subjects.15.What is the author's opinion on cramming?A．It leads to failure in college exams.B．It's helpful only in a limited way.C．It's possible to result in poor memory.D．It increases students' learning interest.第二节（共5小题；毎小题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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

The Interior Ministry said the meteorite explosion, a very rare spectacle, also released a great explosive sound.“I was driving to work. It was quite dark, but it suddenly became bright as if it were day，”said Viktor Prokofiev, 36, a resident of Yekaterinburg in the Urals Mountains. “I felt like I was blinded by headlights.”The meteorite, which weighed about 10 tons and may have been made of iron, entered Earth's atmosphere and broke apart 30 km —50 km above ground according to Russia's Academy of Sciences.“The energy released when it entered the Earth's atmosphere was equal to a few kilotons，”the academy said, “the power of a small atomic weapon exploding.”No deaths were reported but the Emergencies Ministry said 20,000 rescue and clean-up workers were sent to Urals Region after President Vladimir Putin told Emergencies Minister Vladimir Puchkov to ease and help the victims.The Interior Ministry said about 1,200 people had been injured, at least 200 of them children, and most from broken pieces of glass.56．The underlined word “smashed” in Para. 1 is closest in meaning to “________”．A．broke B．melted C．swallowed D．cleared57．We can know from the passage that ________.A．Moscow is 1,500 kilometers away from the east of ChelyabinskB．many houses were destroyed, with lots of people reported missingC．Viktor Prokofiev became blind after seeing the rare spectacleD．the shock wave briefly influenced mobile phone networks58．Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage?A．“Meteorite Rush” Be gins in RussiaB．President Putin Orders AssistanceC．Meteorite Hits Russia, 1,200 People HurtD．Meteorite Flies Quickly Across Russia(B)Moving to a new neighborhood, town, state, or even country can be a pretty scary experience. All you know is that things will be different and chances are you won't know the kids at your new school.The experiences that go with moving make many kids feel nervous and worried. This is perfectly normal but don't let these emotions overrun your thoughts! You will soon get used to your surroundings and find new friends at your new school.Leaving old friends and familiar places behind can be difficult. However, as you begin the moving process, keep in mind that saying goodbye to your old house, school, and friends does not mean that you have to forget them or that your farewell is permanent! If you're moving to a new state or even a different country and won't see your friends for a long time, don't despair. Make sure to ask everyone for their address so you can write them letters. Also, thanks to the Internet, it is very easy to stay in touch through email or instant messaging technologies. With your parent's permission, you can even create a blog or web page to chronicle all of your new experiences. Include your thoughts, tales of your new adventures, even pictures of new friends, your new house, and new town. Your old friends will love seeing what you are busy with.Many schools have an orientation program where a student already established at the school shows a new student around for their first week. This can help you to find your way around the school and to make new friends faster.While moving is tough on kids of any age, high school counselor Karen Turner says moves can be particularly difficult for teens. “I think moving during adolescents is an extremely stressful experience, especially if you are into your junior high or senior year. Students tend to have established a very strong peer network during that period in their lives. Often this has more influence on them even than their families in some cases, and when they are torn from that there's often resentment (怨气)．” However, Turner adds that while moving isn't easy, there are things that your parents and the school can do to help you cope with the change.59．Who are the intended readers of the passage?A．Education experts. B．School teachers. C．Parents. D．Students.60．Which of the following is mainly suggested in Paragraph 3?A．Staying in contact with old friends.B．Expressing yourself when it is possible.C．Forming good habits at school.D．Keeping positive about your new school.61．According to the passage, an orientation program ________.A．helps local students in many ways B．is organized by new studentsC．offers help to new students D．focuses on all the students at school62．If this passage continues, what would the author further discuss?A．What a new school is like.B．Why parents move with their children.C．How parents and the school can help the children.D．How children can express their anxiety.(C)When you make a mistake, big or small, cherish it as it's the most precious thing in the world.Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes, beat ourselves up about it, feel like failures, and get mad at ourselves.And that's only natural: Most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad, and we should try to avoid mistakes. We've been scolded when we make mistakes — at home, school and work. Maybe not always, but probably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction.Yet without mistakes, we could not learn or grow. If you think about it that way, mistakes should be cherished and celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the world: They make learning possible; they make growth and improvement possible.By trial and error — trying things, making mistakes, and learning from those mistakes — we have figured out how to make electric lights, to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, and to fly.Mistakes make walking possible for the smallest toddler,_make speech possible, and make works of genius possible.Think about how we learn: We don't just consume information about something and instantly know it or know how to do it. You don't just read about painting, or writing, or computer programming, or baking, or playing the piano, and know how to do them right away. Instead, you get information about something, from reading or from another person or from observingusually ... then you construct a model in your mind ... then you test it out by trying it in the real world ... then you make mistakes ... then you revise the model based on the results of your real world experimentation ... and repeat, making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, until you've pretty much learned how to do something.That's how we learn as babies and toddlers, and how we learn as adults. Mistakes are how we learn to do something new — because if you succeed in something, it's probably something you already knew how to do. You haven't really grown much from that success — at most it's the last step on your journey, not the whole journey. Most of the journey is made up of mistakes, if it's a good journey.So if you value learning, if you value growing and improving, then you should value mistakes. They are amazing things that make a world of brilliance possible.63．According to the passage, what is the right attitude to mistakes?A．We should try to avoid making mistakes.B．We should owe great inventions mainly to mistakes.C．We should treat mistakes as good chances to learn.D．We should make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction.64．The underlined word “toddler” in Paragraph 6 probably means ________.A．a small child learning to walk B．a kindergarten child learning to drawC．a primary pupil learning to read D．a school teenager learning to write65．We can learn from the passage that ________.A．most of us can really grow from successB．growing and improving are based on mistakesC．we learn to make mistakes by trial and errorD．we read about something and know how to do it right away66．The author wants to tell us ________.A．what you should do when meeting with difficultiesB．where you can find your mistakesC．how you can avoid making mistakesD．why you should celebrate your mistakes(D)A young, buried woolly mammoth (猛犸象) has been discovered in Siberia near the Arctic Ocean. Nicknamed “Yuka”, the mammoth has been described by discoverers as being “remarkably well preserved (保存)” though being cut open by ancient people.Yuka was discovered in Siberia during an expedition funded in part by the BBC and the Discovery Channel and is believed to be at least 10,000 years old. The discoverers believe this finding could possibly provide evidence of early human activities in the Siberian region. Thanks to the freezing cold temperatures of Siberia, in fact, much of the meat is still undamaged, having a pink color. Light blond hair covers the mammoth. Daniel Fisher, director of the University of Michigan Museum of Paleontology told Discovery News, “This is the first relatively complete mammoth body — that is, a body with soft tissues (软组织) preserved — to show evidence of human activities.”Working with an international team of experts, Fisher will help analyze Yuka and get genetic (基因的) samples from the body. The team used carbon dating (碳年代测定法) on Yuka. They believe the mammoth to have died at least 10,000 years ago and have been about 2.5 to 4 years old when it died.Judging from the wounds found on the mammoth and other cuts, the team believes Yuka may have been harmed by lions before humans came along to finish the job.“It appears that Yuka was chased by one or more lions, judging from the deep, unhealed scratches (抓痕) in the hide and bite marks on the tail,” Fisher said. “Yuka then apparently fell, breaking one of the lower back-legs. At this point, humans may have moved in to control the body, cutting up much of the animal and removing parts that they would use immediately. They may, in fact, have reburied the rest of the body to keep it in reserve for possible later use. What remains now would then be ‘leftovers’ that they never retrieved.”While most of organs (器官) inside Yuka’s body are missing, such as ribs, ver tebrae, and some meat, the lower parts of each leg, the trunk remain incredibly well preserved.French mammoth hunter Bernard Beigues is also part of the international team, and suggests the humans may have been after Yuka’s fat and large bones. He believe s the bones may have been used in religious ceremonies and therefore were kept close to the body.Such discoveries will enable scientists to study the genetics of these animals. For example, the discovery of Yuka has confirmed an earlier assumption (假设) about mammoths’ hair color. The red hair found all over Yuka proves this theory and provides information about the genetic codes of the mammoth as it relates to hair and eye color. With such a wealth of genetic material to investigate, scientists suggest cloning is possible. Tim Walker, a director and producer for the Discovery Channel told Discovery News that cloning a mammoth could take years, even decades. Yuka will be a part of a new documentary produced by the BBC and the Discovery Channel called “Mammoth”.67. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. Yuka’s body remains in excellent condition.B. Yuka’s soft tissues prove ancient human activities.C. Woolly mammoths were enemies of ancient humans.D. Yuka died from the freezing cold temperatures of Siberia.68. The research team has figured out Yuka’s age by ______.A. genetic samplesB. carbon datingC. wounds of the tailD. the light blond hair69. What does the underlined wo rd “retrieved” in Paragraph 5 means “______”.A. worked outB. given upC. got backD. asked for70. What would be the best title for the text?A. Cloning of Yuka the MammothB. A Well-preserved Mammoth BodyC. Ancient Human Activities in SiberiaD. The Missing Parts of the Mammoth Body第二卷(共35分)第一节:任务型阅读 ((共10题，每小题0.5分，满分10分)Passion has somehow become a funny thing. At first it's commonly defined as a love you have for something; something you may do during your free time. But today, passion goes beyond that. With people living the seemingly perfect life, passion has become the gateway to freedom, the ability to design and create the lifestyle you wanted. It is the fire that burns inside of you. It makes everything in life feel right and meaningful and it gives you a sense of identity.But people today have some misunderstandings of what passion is.You have to be extremely good at it. How often is it today that you hear of this or that inspiring guy who created a business out of passion or does what he loves every day? It's easy to think that that person is really good at what he does. Absolutely right? Not really. Passion isn't a competition where you keep getting better and then show off to people how great you are. Passion is a feeling. Like love, when it comes to you, you enjoy it and let it flow. It is this feeling that is all you need.It has to be acceptable in the eyes of others. Some people think that passion needs to be acceptable, and it must meet the expectations of others or you may come across as crazy. It also has to be acceptable for the possible future of making a living out of it. Again, no. Passion can be anything you want. As long as you attain that special feeling which makes everything alright in life, it's absolutely okay. Nothing else matters then.It will make you money. Inspiring as it is to hear of people making a full-time income from what they love, the truth is, it's not guaranteed that passion can make money for you. Do you think people would want to pay you if your passion is say, sitting in front of the TV eating chips? Doubtful. There is a veritable gap which your passion needs to cross to enter the world where rules of life and society apply. And this gap requires a lot of effort and creative thinking to cross.Passion is simply you. It's your choice to start finding one and holding on to it. It can and will give you that special feeling and raise you to greatness. With a little effort, you can easily findone. And it's something you'll never forget in life.第二节、单词拼写(共10题，每小题0.5分，满分5分)根据所给的中文提示或首字母，写出相应的单词81.

You may not believe that such a town has shops car parks, hotels, restaurants, cafes and much more. Well, Coober Pedy in Australia is just such a place.Miners and their families choose to live like this, hoping to get rich looking for the precious stones that Australia is famous for --- opals(蛋白石). Living underground is the only way to be away from the sandstorms and the high temperatures above ground. Deep down in the town far below the desert surface, the temperature is between 19℃ and 20℃ and life is cool.Mary Deane and her husband Jim are among the lucky ones. They live in a home, built with money from the opals Jim has found. “Whenever people hear we live underground, they al ways imagine a dusty cave,” says Mary, “but they are amazed at my clean kitchen, our furniture and electrical appliances in here.”However, not everything is perfect in Coober Pedy. Mary has a tiny garden that she is very proud of, but the grass is not real. Plant life is rare. Water is five times more expensive underground than it is overground. Recycling is a way of life, so Jim usuallywashes his car with bath water and they have a special system to reuse the water from the dishwasher and washing machine.Even so, most families enjoy life in Coober Pedy. The children can make as much noise as they want and there are no complaints from the neighbors because the thick walls stop sounds from traveling. Adults enjoy the peace and quiet away from the world above.21. People in Coober Pedy live underground______.A. because of their secret identitiesB. because it is warmer undergroundC. so that they can save some moneyD. due to the terrible natural environment.22.

照对市爱民阳光实验学校三中高一期中考试试题英语时间：90分钟总分值：100分2014年11月10日第一卷客观题第一阅读理解〔共两节, 总分值30分〕第一节〔共10小题；每题2分，总分值20分〕阅读以下短文，从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C和D〕中，选出最正确选项。
AThe most frightening words in the English language are, “Our computer is down.〞 You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.〞“If your computer is d own, just write me out a ticket.〞“I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.〞I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do all you r people do?〞“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.〞“So when it goes down, you go down with it.〞“That’s good, sir.〞“How long will the computer be down?〞 I wanted to know.“I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There’s no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down it won’t answer us.〞After the girl told me they had no backup(备用) computer, I said. “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They’re still flying, aren’t they?〞“I couldn’t tell without asking the computer.〞“Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he’s flying to Washington, 〞 I suggested.“I wouldn’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot w as going to Washington, he couldn’t take you if you didn’t have a ticket.〞“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?〞“I wouldn’t know, 〞she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only ‘IT’ knows. ‘It’ can’t tell me.〞By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kickedtheir luggage.1. The best title for the article is _______.A. When the Computer Is DownB. The Most Frightening WordsC. The Computer of the AirportD. Asking the Computer2. What could the girl in the ticket office do for the passengers without asking the computer?A. She could sell a ticket.B. She could write out a ticket.C. She could answer the passengers’ questions.D. She could do nothing.3. The last paragraph suggests that _______.A. a modern computer won’t be down.B. computers can take the place of humansC. sometimes a computer may bring suffering to peopleD. there will be great changes in computersBThe arts, especially music, should be part of every school's lessons at every grade level. Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions. People develop all these skills when they learn music. Making music also lets children use their imagination. It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas.Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do. In a music program, children can be part of a band instead of joining a gang (团伙). Parents can enjoy listening to their children's music instead of seeing them glued to a computer or TV screen. In a school band, students get to be part of a team. They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music.Music builds self-confidence, too. It gives children a sense of achievement and success. Making music is something for them to be proud of, and it lets kids practice performing in front of an audience. Music gives children an opportunity for self-expression, and that helps develop their self-confidence.Once again, music is important because it can make children better students, give them something positive to do, and build their character. That is why music should be offered in every single grade in every school.4. What does the underlined phrase "glued to" in the second paragraph mean?A. unwilling to turn onB. always lookingC. unwilling to leaveD. always playing5. The third paragraph mainly tells us that music could __________.A. give children an opportunity for self-expressionB. bring to children achievement and successC. give children something to be proud ofD. develop children's self-confidence6. What's the best title of this passage？A. Music is a must〔必需做的事〕as a course at schoolB. Music builds children's self-confidenceC. Music makes students much smarterD. Learning music and making musicProverbs (谚语) are quite common in spoken English. We don’t normally put them in a composition or a letter. Sometimes it is helpful if you know what common proverbs mean. Here are a few examples.1〕“Once bitten, twice shy.〞 If a dog bites me, I shall be twice as careful in future when I see it. This proverb is also used to apply to many things and not only to dogs. If you have been cheated at a shop, you will not go the same shop again.2〕“A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.〞 If I am a hunter, trying to catch birds, it is better to catch one than to see two birds in a bush but not able to catch them. Thus this means that what you have already got is better than the chance of being able to get something bigger in future.3〕“Too many cooks spoil the broth (soup)〞. When too many people do something, they get in each other’s way and do a bad job.4〕“To pour oil on troubled waters〞 is to try to calm things down. Oil is lighter than water. If a ship is in trouble at sea, another ship may come to help it. The second ship can send small boats to rescue people. However, it may first pour oil on the sea to make the sea less rough.5〕“Don’t be a dog in a manger( 槽 )〞means“ Don’t be selfish.〞In a stable ( 马房 ), the manger is the place wher e the horse’s food is put. Sometimes a dog will sleep in the manger and bark when a horse comes to get its food. The dog doesn’t want to eat the hay in the manger but it will not let the horse eat it.6〕“He is sitting on the fence〞 means that somebody will not say whether he is in favor of a plan or against it. He is sitting on a fence between two opposing sides, perhaps waiting to see which side will win.7〕“He who pays the piper calls the tune.〞 A piper is a musician. The man who employs or pays a musician can say what tunes the man will play. Thus this means that if a man provides the money for a plan, he can say how it will be carried out.8〕“You can’t get blood out of a stone〞 means that you cannot get something from a person who has not got any of the things you want. eg. you cannot get a million dollars from a poor man.7. Mr. Wang paid for a new school. Some people didn’t like the designof the school but they didn’t argue with Mr. Wang because ______.A. he was sitting on the fenceB. once bitten, twice shyC. he who pays the piper calls the tuneD. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush8. Mr. and Mrs. Smith had a quarrel. Their friend, Mr. Brown, want totalk to them. When he came back, he told his wife that he had been trying to help the Smiths by ______.A. pouring oil on troubled watersB. getting blood out of a stoneC. being a dog in a mangerD. sitting on the fence9. Mrs. Lin wanted to buy a new dress. Her husband suggested that shebuy it from a shop near their home. Mrs. Lin disagreed because she had been cheated by that shop. So she said :“I won’t go there again because ______.〞A. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bushB. I am sitting on the fenceC. once bitten, twice shyD. too many cooks spoil the broth10. Peter has a bicycle which is much too small for him but he does notwant to let his younger brother ride on it. His mother is angry and says to him: ______.A. You can’t get blood out of a stoneB. Don’t be a dogin a mangerC. The early bird gets the wormD. To pour oil on troubled waters第二节七选五〔共5小题；每题2分，总分值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正确选项。

AAre you scared about moving up to senior high school? It can be a new experience，but youshouldn't worry. We've put together a guide to help you in the first week.You're not aloneRemember everybody else in your year is in the same boat. They may not realize it, but they're just as nervous as you are. Moving to senior high school is an opportunity, not a problem. Things are different and all you need to do is be polite and learn the new rules.Teachers are ready to helpIf you're unsure what to do or are worried about anything，then ask for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they’re experienced in helping new students. Some senior high schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this, then you wil l be paired with an older student. He/ She will help you if you have any problems or questions.All changeThere are lots of differences between junior high school and senior high school. You'll have a homework diary or a student planner. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days, so make sure you get organized. Make sure you have a copy of your school timetable written down so you know which rooms your classes are in and on which days you will have your different subjects. Other pointsIf you've got an older brother or sister at the school, then ask them for advice. Be yourself! It sounds simple, but people will know you much better if you just act naturally.Having early nights makes a difference and you'll find it easier to get up in the morning!21. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A. Other students have similar feelings to yours.B. Other students have to learn boating with you.C. Other students will help you solve your problems.D. Other students will teach you politeness and new rules.22. New students turn to teachers first when having problems because teachers ________.A. can find friends for studentsB. are good at helping new studentsC. can look after students like parentsD. care for younger students more23. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. You should act in a natural way.B. You should go to bed early.C. You must know how to dress properly.D. You can ask your older brother for advice.24. The author wrote the passage to ________.A. tell students the importance of learningB. warn students not to ignore friendship in senior high schoolC. make a difference when moving up to senior high schoolD. help new students to get used to the life in senior high schoolBI had a lot of teachers that I loved. However, the teacher that I remember most was Mrs. Green from Marianna, Florida. She was my 5th grade teacher. Since I was a new student, not only in her class, but at the school, she made my time there much more pleasant. I immediately began to like her. She was really funny and I knew that she liked me. She made learning fun. I remember one day for Christmas holidays, she taught us how to make ornaments (装饰物) from eggs. My parents still have some of the ornaments I made.She made me leader for many group projects and that made me feel special. I think that would make any child feel special, especially when a child is in a new place with no friends. She made me want to be like that. Not to pick a “favorite” student, but to make every student feel that they are special. That year, I received the Presidential Academic Award (美国总统学术奖). I was really proud and so were my parents.Looking back at it, I think the reason why I did so well was that I felt important. Students do better when they feel like they are important or loved. Mrs. Green always gets to know her students and forms personal relationships with them, which I will try to do some day. I just hope that there will be students who find me to be their favorite teacher as I found her to be mine.25．The author's life in the new school was very ________.A. happyB. commonC. hardD. boring26．What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. The author was once received by the President.B. The author was Mrs. Green's favorite student.C. The author was the pride of her parents.D. The author always felt lonely in Mrs. Green's class.27．What will the author probably do in the future?A. Become a leader.B. Become an artist.C. Become a teacher.D. Become the President.28．How does the author feel about Mrs. Green's help?A. Sorry.B. Thankful.C. Afraid.D. Hopeful.CMost American students go to traditional (传统的) public schools. There are about 88, 000 public schools all over the US. Some students attend charter schools.Charter schools are self- governing. Certain companies operate (经营) some charter schools. They are similar in some ways to traditional public schools. They receive tax money just as other public schools do. Charter schools must prove to local or state governments that their students are learning. These governments provide the schools with the agreement called a charter that permitsthem to operate.Charter schools are different because they do not have to obey most laws that govern traditional public schools. Each school can choose its own goals and decide what to teach and how to teach them in their own way. Class size is usually smaller than in traditional public schools.The government strongly supports charter schools as a way to re-organize public schools, which are failing to educate students. But some education unions are against charter schools. One teachers' union has just released the results of the first national study, which compared the progress of students in both traditional schools and charter schools.The results of the study show that charter school students performed worse on math and reading tests than the students in traditional public schools.Some experts say the study is not fair because students in charter schools have more problems than students in traditional schools.
