Almost a month ago, he bought popular word game that used little pieces of wood with different letters on them. As he was purchasing it, the salesgirl said, “Uh, look, the game box haven’t even been opened yet. That might be worth some money. ”Peter examined the box, and, sure enough, it was completely covered in factory-sealed plastic. And he saw a date of 1973 on the back of the box.“You should put that up for auction (拍卖) on the Internet, and see what happens.” the salesgirl said.“Yes, you’re right. People like something rare.” Peter agreed, “I can’t imagine there being very many unopened boxes of this game still around 40 years later.”“Don’t forget to tell me if you sell it.” the salesgirl smiled.“No problem.” Peter said.After he got home, Peter went online to several auction websites looking for his game. But he couldn’t find it. Then he typed in the name of the word game and hit Search. The search result was 543 websites containing information about the changes of the game. Over the years, the game had been produced using letters in different sizes and game boards in different colors. He also found some lists of game fans looking for various versions of the game. Peter emailed some of them, telling them what he had.Two weeks later, Peter went back to the shop.“Hello. Do you still remember the unopened word game?”The salesgirl looked at him for a second, then recognized him and said, “Oh, hi!”“I’ve got something for you,” Peter said. “I sold the game and made $1,000. Thank you for your suggestion.” He handed her three $ 100 bills.“Wow!” the salesgirl cried out. “Thank you, I never expected it.”26. Which of the following best describes Peter’s word game?A.

But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish”, I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids(眼皮) and the sun huts their eyes… The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them..When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need tofish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.31. Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine?A. He could not catch a fish.B. His father was not patient with him.C. His father did not teach him fishing.D. He could not influence a fish as his father did.32. What did the author’s father really mean?A. To read about fish.B. To learn fishing by oneself.C. To understand what fish think.D. To study fishing in many ways.33. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found _________.A. in deep water on sunny daysB. in deep water on cloudy daysC. in shallow water under sunlightD. in shallow water under waterside trees.34. After entering the business world, the author found _________.A. it easy to think like a customerB. his father’s fishing advice inspiringC. his first boss’s sales ideas reasonableD. it difficult to sell services to poor people35. This passage most likely comes from _________.A. a fishing guideB. a popular sales bookC. a novel on childhoodD. a millionaire’s biographyCDaniel Anderson, a famous psychologist, belie ves it’s important to distinguish television’s influences on children from those of the family. We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesn’t really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping children’s minds.One traditional belief about televisi on is that it reduces a child’s ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV, children do not merely absorb words and images (影像). Instead, they learn both explicit and hidden meanings from what they see. Actually, children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows. Furthermore, as many teachers agree, children understand far more when parents watch TV with them, explaining new words and ideas. Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and do something in another room.Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment. But according to Anderson, the amount of time spent watching television is not related to reading ability. TV doesn’t take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation, such as listening to the radio and playing sports. Things like parents’ educational background have a stronger influence on a child’s reading. “A child’s reading ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads.” Anderson says.Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ (智商) scores and affects school performance. But here, too, Anderson notes that no studies have proved it. In fact, research suggests that it’s the other way around. “If you’re smart young, you’ll watch less TV when you’re older,” Anderson says. Yet, people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.For years researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children. However, by showing that television promotes none of the dangerous effects as conventionally believed, Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned without considering other influences.36. By watching TV, children learn _________.A. images through wordsB. more than explicit meaningsC. more about images than wordsD. littl e about people’s psychology37. An educational program is best watched by a child _________.A. on his ownB. with other kidsC. with his parentsD. with his teachers38. Which of the following is most related to children’s reading ability?A. Radio-listeningB. Television-watchingC. Parents’ reading listD. Parents’ educational background39. Anderson believed that _________.A. the more a child watches TV, the smarter he isB. the younger a child is, the more he watches TVC. the smarter a child is, the less likely he gets addicted to TVD. the less a child watches TV, the better he performs at school40. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To advise on the educational use of TV.B. To describe TV’s harmful effects on children.DIt was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction. Each class had unique characteristics.In recent years, many writers have begun to speak the 'decline of class' and 'classless society' in Britain. And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class.But pronouncing the death of class is too early. A recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences. Thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of British society. Britain seems to have a love of stratification.One unchanging aspect of a British person's class position is accent. The words a person speaks tell her or his class. A study of British accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice, Most people said this accent sounded 'educated' and 'soft'. The accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional(地区的)city accents. These accents were seen as 'common' and 'ugly'. However, a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least. This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.In recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in London, have begun to adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed. However, the 1995 pop song 'Common People' puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may 'want to live like common people' they can never appreciate the reality of a working-class life.41. A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain ________.A. it is time to end class distinctionB. most people belong to middle classC. it is easy to recognize a person’s classD. people regard themselves socially different42. The word stratification in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.A. varietyB. authorityC. divisionD. qualification43. The study in the US showed that BBC English was regarded as _________.A. regionalB. educatedC. prejudicedD. unattractive44. British attitudes towards accent _________.A. have a long traditionB. are based on regional statusC. are shared by the AmericansD. have changed in recent years45. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The middle class is expandingB. A person’s accent reflects his classC. Class is a key part of British societyD. Each class has unique characteristics.信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)请阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。

When Dekalb Walcott III was just 8 years old,his father,a Chicago fire chief,let him tag along on a call.Dekalb says a lot of kids idolized basketball player Michael Jordan when he was growing up in Chicago in the 1990s.Not him.“I wanted to be like Dekalb Walcott Jr.,”he says of his father.So when his dad asked if he wanted to go on that call with him when he was 8,Dekalb was excited.“I'm jumping up and down,saying,”Mom,can I go? Can I go?' The experience changed Dekalb's life,he tells his dad on a visit to StoryCorps.“My eyes got big from the moment the alarm went off.”the younger Dekalb says.“This is the life that I want to live someday.”Now 27,the younger Dekalb is living that life.He became a firefighter at 21 and went to work alongside his dad at the Chicago Fire Department.Before his father retired,the pair even went out on a call together — father supervising(监督)son.“You know,it's everything for me to watch you grow,”his father says.But he also recalls worrying about one particular fire that his son faced.“I received a phone call that night.And they said,'Well,your son was at this fire.' I said,'OK,which way is this conversation going to go?'”Dekalb Walcott Jr.recalls.“And they said,'But he's OK.And he put it out all by himself.Everybody here was proud of him.'”“And the word went around,'Who was out there managing that fire? Oh,that's Walcott! That's Walcott up there!' So,you know,moments like that,it's heaven on Earth for a dad.”Dekalb Walcott Jr.retired in 2009.The younger Dekalb says he's proud of being a second-generation firefighter.“You know,it makes me look forward to fatherhood as well,because I'm definitely looking forward to passing that torch down to my son.”1.The underlined phrase tag along in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.A.put out fireB.watch basketballC.follow his fatherD.ask his mother’s permission2.Dekalb Walcott III determined to become a firefighter at the age of _________ A.8 B.21 C.27 D.353.What did Dekalb Walcott Jr want to do before he was told that the fire was put out?A.Go on with the conversationB.Put it out all by himselfC.Supervise his sonD.Go to the fire scene4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.Dekalb Walcott Jr is proud to be a second-generation firefighter.B.Dekalb Walcott III wants his son to become a firefighter too.C.Dekalb Walcott Jr wants to pass the torch to Dekalb Walcott III.D.Dekalb Walcott III is proud that his son has become an excellent firefighter.5.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A.Passing The Torch: A Firefighter Dad's LegacyB.Putting Out Fire: A Challenging Job for Father and sonC.Dekalb Walcott III:A Second-generation FirefighterD.Dekalb Walcott Jr.:A Chicago Fire Chief3. My family moved from Taiwan to a small town in central Georgia,where my dad got a visa for his family and a job.I had just learned English,and from what little I could gather from my classmates,Santa Claus w ould come down one’s chimney(烟囱)and put toys in one’s stocking on Christmas Eve! What a great country,I thought.After I looked up “stocking” in my Chinese-English dictionary,I knew what I had to do.On that fateful night,after everyone went to bed,I took my longest,cleanest knee sock and attached it to a nail already on the mantel(壁炉).Obviously,the previous owners of this house were no strangers to this Santa character.I woke up before everyone else on Christmas Day and ran to the fireplace.To make a sob story short,I was hit with the reality of an empty sock and the biggest lie ever told.I burst into tears,quickly took down the sock,and stuffed it in the back of a drawer.Santa was dead.Every December since then,the topic of Christmas memories would unavoidably come up,and I would amuse my friends with my poor-little-me story.I had to make it as funny as possible,or else I would cry.How could I know that Santa was just late? Nine years ago,on Christmas Eve,an older man with a white beard and a red cap knocked on my front door.He said,“I’ve been looking for you for twenty-five years.” He handed me a bulging red stocking,winked,and left.On top of the stocking was a card.It read: “For Becky—I may have missed you in the second grade,but you’ve always l ived in my heart.Santa.”Through tear-blurred eyes,I recognized the handwriting of Jill,a friend I had met just two months before.I later discovered that the older man was her father.Jill had seen the hurt little girl underneath the thirty-something woman and decided to do something about it.So now I believe that Santa is real.I don’t mean the twinkle-eyed character of children’s mythology(神话) or the creation of American holiday marketers.Those Santas annoy and sadden me.I believe in the Santa Claus that live inside good and thoughtful people.This Santa does not return to the North Pole after a crazy delivery but lives each day purposefully,really listens to friends,and then plans deliberate acts of kindness.1.What does the underlined part “what I had to do” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.Waiting for Santa Claus.B.Putting a stocking on the mantel.C.Asking for gifts from her parents.D.Looking up “stocking” in the dictionary2.It can be inferred from the passage that the author’s parents ____.A.didn’t love their child at allB.didn’t know the previous owners of the houseC.didn’t know much about Christmas traditionD.didn’t have enough money to buy the author Christmas presents3.When the author told her friends about the story,she felt ______in her heart.A.proud B.amusing C.hate D.regret4.By writing the passage,the author speaks highly of ________A.friendshipB.parentingC.religionD.culture5.The author of the passage is probably ________.A.a teenagerB.a primary school studentC.a middle-aged womanD.a native American4.Cooking programs and classes for children seem to positively influence children's food preferences and behaviors,according to a recent review.And,although the review didn't look at long-term effects of such programs,the findings suggest that such programs might help children develop long-lasting healthy habits.This research comes at a time when childhood obesity(肥胖) rates have been rising rapidly.More than one-third of adolescents in the United States were obese in 2012,according to the U.S.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).This trend has been caused,at least in part,by a significant decrease in the amount of meals that people consume at home since the 1980s,according to background information in the study.Cooking education programs,such as Food Explorers,teach children about new healthy foods and how to prepare them.They also stress the importance of eatingfive fruits and vegetables every day.A volunteer parent explains a new food to the group,and the kids make something based on the lesson,such as fruit or vegetable salad.Depending on the program,kids may be sent home with information about healthy foods to bring to their parents,the review explained.The study team reviewed eight other studies that tested different types of cooking education programs.Children in these classes were between 5 and 12 years old,according to the review.The goal of the study team was to learn more about developing an efficient program to encourage healthy food choices that last a lifetime.The study found that it is particularly important to expose kids to healthy foods on a number of occasions.This makes them feel comfortable with the new foods,which helps them build healthy habits.The study stressed the importance of getting parents involved in(参与) their children's eating habits.Parents who are unable to enroll their kids in a cooking class can achieve similar benefits by having their kids help them while they prepare meals at home.Children are more comfortable at home,which makes them more receptive to new foods because they will make the connection to a positive experience.1.What can we infer from the second paragraph?A.Eating out frequently causes obesity.B.Childhood obesity is totally caused by eating habit.C.Childhood obesity rates have been rising rapidly since 2012D.Food consumption has decreased significantly since the 1980s.2.On cooking education programs,________.A.children learn how to prepare foods from their parentsB.children will learn how to cook in the company of their parentsC.children may learn information unknown to their parentsD.children focus more on cooking skills than on information about healthy foods 3.Which of the following is true according to the study?A.Parents should let their kids cook independently at home.B.A greater willingness to try new foods helps building healthy habits.C.Children who participate in cooking programs are less likely to become obese.D.Children who take cooking courses are more likely to choose fruits and vegetables as adults.4.Which of the following categories does this passage belong to?A.Education SystemsB.Science and TechnologyC.Parent-child RelationshipD.Public Health Research5.The purpose of the passage is _________.A.to inform the readerB.to entertain the readerC.to discuss with the readerD.to warn the reader5. Engineers should embrace(接受) the arts,Sir John O'Reilly,a fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology,argued in a lecture.About 59% of engineering companies in the IET's 2014 survey feared skill shortages could threaten(威胁) business."There is nothing as creative as engineering," Sir John told the reporter.He says science,technology,engineering and mathematics - often known as "Stem" subjects,are vital for a modern knowledge economy.But there is a massive shortfall in the number of recruits(招聘) - with a recent study by the Royal Academy of Engineering saying the UK needs to increase by as much as 50% the number of Stem graduates it produces.Delivering this year's Mountbatten Lecture at the Royal Institution,Sir John argued that engineers should recognise the role of the arts in their work - among other benefits; this could attract more people into the profession.The lecture,Full Steam Ahead for Growth,advocated a wider adoption -- Steam,or science,technology,engineering,arts and maths.Engineers should embrace the arts as being key to creativity and an important component of innovation(创新),crucial to creating new products and boosting future competitiveness,he argued."Engineering and technology is an increasingly diverse and creative field," said Sir John.Some university engineering departments already cooperated with art schools to develop understanding,he told the reporter.In particular he mentioned Cranfield University's Centre for Creative Competitive Design and Imperial College's work with the Royal College of Art.The two sets of people could work well together and more emphasis on the creative side of engineering could improve the success of products,he said."Aesthetics(美学) is part of it," he told the reporter,adding that Apple's iPod was not the first digital media player,nor the only one that worked - but it came to dominate the market "because it was nice to have".Sir John said he was not suggesting universities started requiring A-level art from engineering applicants - the key subjects for admission would continue to be maths and the sciences.But an emphasis on creative skills would help "broaden the pool and attract more people in".1.According to a recent study by the Royal Academy _______ .A.skill shortages could threaten businessB.engineering graduates are not as creative as expectedC.there are not enough arts graduates produced in the UK.D.the UK needs more graduates in science,technology,engineering and mathematics 2.According to the lecture Full Steam Ahead for Growth,_______ .A.engineers should cooperate with arts majorsB.Accepting the arts could attract more people into engineeringC.engineers should realize arts play the most important part in their work D.engineering and technology is as diverse and creative as before3.By giving the example of Apple's iPod,Sir John intends to _______ .A.stress the importance of artsB.stress the importance of marketingC.stress the importance of communicationD.stress the importance of science and technology4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.More university students should study arts instead of engineering.B.Engineering and technology is increasingly different and unrelated fields.C.The IET's skills survey raised concerns about the number of recruits to engineering.D.Students from some university engineering departments have already transferred to art schools5.What is the passage mainly about?A.Lack of creativity makes it difficult for the engineering major to find a satisfactory job.B.The key subjects for engineering majors remain to be maths and the sciences rather than arts.C.University engineering departments should cooperate with art schools to improve the success of products.D.Engineering needs to emphasize its creative side to encourage more young people to choose it as a career.三、阅读填空(共1小题)6.

But those communities and policy (政策)makers also are careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project un covers the mysteries of life.For the last few years, the gen etic adva nces in the develop ing field of biotech no logy(生物技术)have provides material for all kinds of work, but the developme nts of moder n scie nee in uniocking the secrets of the human genetic code(密码)have opened a world of possibilities for huma n health, as well as for the popular imagi natio n.While Europea n and Japa nese researchers are making rapid progress in decod in g(解码) huma n DNA, the lead ing orga ni zati on for gen etic research is in the Un ited States, which bega n in 1990, is “ uniocking the code ” of the human body to learn how to d致命tfa)alseases. Already, the Huma n Genome Project has become widely known and praised for finding the genes(基因) connected with terrible diseases as yet(迄今),and making progress toward separating the genes that show a sig n of breast cancer or AIDS.Once these genes are found and studied, researchers can develop new ways to attack infections (传染),and genetic diseases. Medical companies are very interested in mapping the huma n geno me, as they expect to develop a lot of new drugs for these ill nesses.26. Why did the scie ntists work hard at mapp ing the huma n geno me?A. Because the huma n genome can destroy many ill nesses.B. Because the human genome's completion can help them get rid of many diseases.C. Because they wan ted to be better known tha n others.D. Because the huma n genome can provide a lot of cha nces of work.27. Which country studied the genes most rapidly in the world?A. Japa n.B. Germa ny.C. The Uni ted States.D. Chi na.28. Which of the following is NOT true?A. If the genes can be found, scie ntists can study many new ways to cure ill nesses.B. The scie ntists have made great progress in conn ect ing the genes with the can cers.C. Many medical compa nies show great in terest in draw ing the huma n genome map.D. The Un ited States bega n the Genes Study early in the 19th cen tury.29. The author suggests that the Huma n Genome Project can cause _____ .A. the policy makers to feel very worried and carefulB. the scie ntists to work harderC. many people to find work easilyD. a lot of compa nies to produce many new drugs30. The main idea of this article is about _____ .A. uni ock ing gen etic codeB. the gen es' discoveryC. the great huma n genomeD. the genes and the scie ntistsBA child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises(出现) from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculiar(奇怪的) that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl-friend.No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.31. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is _____ .A. repeated without any changeB. treated as a jokeC. made some changes by the parentD. set in the present32. According to the passage, great fear can take place in a child when the story is _____ .A. in a realistic settingB. heard for the first timeC. repeated too oftenD. told in a different way33. The advantage claimed(提出)for repeating fairy stories to young children is that itA. makes them less fearfulB. develops their power of memoryC. makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid ofD. encourages them not to have strange beliefs34. The author 's mention of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that ___________ .A. fairy stories are still being made upB. there is some misunderstanding about fairy talesC. people try to modernize old fairy storiesD. there is more concern for children's fears nowadays35. One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that _____ .A. they are full of imaginationB. they just make up the stories which are far from the truthC. they are not interestingD. they make teachers of history difficult to teachCThe number of speakers of English in Shakespeare ' s tin估iiS pbOim a rtecbeenabout five million. Today it is estimated that some 260 million people speak it as a native language, mainly in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. In addition to the standard varieties of English found in these areas, there are a great many regional and social varieties of the language as well as various levels of usage that are employed both in its spoken and written forms.In fact, it is impossible to estimate the number of people in the world who have acquired an adequate(足够的)working knowledge of English in addition to their own Ianguages. The purpose for English learning and the situations in which such learning takes place are so varied that it is difficult to explain and still more difficult to judge what forms an adequate working knowledge for each situation.The main reason for the widespread demand for English is its present-day importance as a world language. Besides serving the indefinite needs of its native speakers, English is a language in which some of important works in science, technology, and other fields are being produced, and not always by native speakers. It is widely used for such purposes as meteorological and airport communications, international conferences, and the spread of information over the radio and television networks of many nations. It is a language of wider communication for a number of developing countries, especially former British colonies. Many of these countries have multilingual populations and need a language for internal communication in such matters as government, commerce, industry, law and education as well as for international communication and for entrance to the scientific and technological developments in the West.1. What would be the best title for this passage?A. The Difficulties of Learning EnglishB. International CommunicationsC. The Standard Varieties of EnglishD. English as a World Language2. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Some 260 million people in the world have an adequate working knowledge of English.B. There are some 260 million native speakers of English in the world.C. It is almost impossible to estimate the number of people with an adequate working knowledge of English.D. People learn English for a variety of reasons.3. According to the passage, what is the main reason for the widespread use of English?A. It was popular during Shakespeare ' s time.B. It is used in former British colonies.C. It serves the needs of its native speakers.D. It is a world language that is used for international communication.4. What forms an adequate work ing kno wledge of En glish?A. The ability to read a n ewspaper.B. It is difficult to judge because it differs for each situati on.C. Being a multili ngual.D. Being a native speaker.5. What type of develop ing coun tries would be most likely to use En glish?A. Those geographically close to the Un ited States.B. Those in terested in the culture of the Un ited States.C. Former colonies of Great Brita in.D. Coun tries where intern ati onal conferences are held.DOn Saturday August 12, 2000, during Northern Fleet training exercises in the Barents Sea, the Russian nuclear submarine(潜水艇)Kursk sank in about 100 meters of water with some 118 sailors aboard. It's known later that several officers were also aboard, observing the training exercises. The Kursk is lying on the ocea n floor in the Bare nts Sea. The Russia n Navy said that it was listing 30 degrees to port. Other sources reported it was listing as much 60 as degrees. Accord ing to a Russia n n ewspaper, whe n the submari ne Kursk failed to make con tact with the n aval comma nd at the right time later that day, Norther n Fleet Comma nder Admiral Vyachesav Popov ordered rescue ships into the area. It took hours to find the submari ne, as it did n't laun ch(发射)a marking buoy(浮)before sinking.Russian Navy Chief insisted that the submarine Kursk had been involved(卷入)in a major collision(碰撞),but a great deal of information shows that this is not true. Up till now, it's believed that an explosion in the torpedo compartment(鱼雷舱)in the nose of the Kursk was the likely cause. Now Russian government officially asked Norway for help in recovering of sailors' bodies first of all, and Norway has agreed to offer all help. But Russia n in sisted that only Russia ns work in side the submari ne Kursk and that the work last for about 10 〜18 work ing days. It is expected to recover only 25 〜35 bodies from the Kursk.It was not until October 25, when a team of Russian divers entered the submarine Kursk, some 350 feet below the surface, that truth became clear. On November 7, in the morning, owing to(由于)the icy and the cold weather, a special rescue meeting held on Murmansk decided to stop the whole bodies recovering operation.41. From the text we can infer that ______ led to the sinking of the submari ne Kursk.A. a small fighting with another foreign submarineB. an explosi on in side the submari ne KurskC. a great collisi on in side the submari ne KurskD. an attack from ano ther foreig n submari ne42. After Kursk accide nt occurred, Norther n Fleet Comma nder Popov ____ .A. decided to recover all the sailors' bodies immediatelyB. went to apply to Norway for help at onceC. decided to find out the real cause of sinking at onceD. sent several rescue ships into the Barents Sea43. Which of the followi ng is NOT true accordi ng to the text?A. The Norwegia ns were willi ng to offer all help.B. It was not believed that there were many un clear weap ons in side theKursk.C. A team of divers from Norway en tered the submari ne Kursk successfully on Oct. 25D. It's reported that a major collisi on was un likely to cause the sinking of the Kursk.44. Why did Russia in sist that only Russia n divers can work in side the submari ne Kursk?A. Because the Bare nts Sea is very icy and the weather is too cold.B. Because Russia feared that the top secrets in side the Kursk will be let out.C. Because Russia n divers are much more skilled tha n those from Norway.D. Because Russia n gover nment wants to bring the cost dow n to the lowest degree.45. The un derl ined words “ make con tact with ” in the first paragraph refers to the idea thatthe submari ne Kursk can't ______ .A. get in touch after much effort with the n aval comma ndB. send up the nu clear weap ons in the training exercisesC. get the n aval officers to retur n to the Norther n FleetD. get in touch after much effort with Russia n gover nment第二节信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息.请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑.以下是旅游景点的信息:A.

The children are taught to be hon est whe n they are very young. At schools the stude nts are also in structed to be hon est.However, with the developme nt of society, we often hear compla ints about dish on esty. Reports with the theme of dish on esty ofte n appear in the media. For example, some people try to get rich and live a comfortable life. But they do not work hard hon estly, in stead they cheat others. They sell something quite ordinary at a very high price. Some people's delaying paying back the loan can serve as ano ther example. Some people, in cludi ng some college stude nts, get loa n from the bank, and promise to pay with in, say, 3 years. However, they don't do that.The dishonest people sometimes can get benefit from their behaviors. So some people assert that dishonesty can bring people benefit, while honesty only makes people suffer. Is that so? Definitely not. It is always true that honesty is the best policy. It pays to be honest. The cheater selling "the treasure" mentioned above will surely be disclosed and punished some day.On the contrary, if he had been honest, neither the buyer nor he himself would have suffered. The people who do notreturn money in time will sooner or later become infamous, and will not get the money from others again. If he had acted differently, he would have earned respect and trust, meanwhile, the bank would not have suffered from loss.[写作内容]1. 以约30 个词概括短文的要点.2. 然后以约120 个词就“诚实”的主题发表看法,并包括以下要点:(1)你对不诚实现象的看法;(2)诚实的重要性是什么;(3)作为中学生,该如何做一个诚实的人.【写作要求】1. 作文中可使用自己的亲身经历或虚构的故事,也可以参照阅读材料的内容,但不得直接引用原文中的句子;标题自定.2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称.[评分标准] 概括准确,语言规范,内容合适,语篇连贯.广东省茂名市2010—2011 学年度高三级第一次调研考试试题(英语)参考答案I 语言知识及应用第一节完形填空【答案与解析】1—15 BCAAC BAABD BACDB1.

Can I go?'The experience changed Dekalb's life,he tells his dad on a visit to StoryCorps.“My eyes got big from the moment the alarm went off.”the younger Dekalb says.“This is the life that I want to live someday.”Now 27,the younger Dekalb is living that life.He became a firefighter at 21 and went to work alongside his dad at the Chicago Fire Department.Before his father retired,the pair even went out on a call together — father supervising(监督)son.“You know,it's everything for me to watch you grow,”his father says.But he also recalls worrying about one particular fire that his son faced.“I received a phone call that night.And they said,'Well,your son was at this fire.' I said,'OK,which way is this conversation going to go?'”Dekalb Walcott Jr.recalls.“And they said,'But he's OK.And he put it out all by himself.Everybody here was proud of him.'”“And the word went around,'Who was out there managing that fire? Oh,that's Walcott! That's Walcott up there!' So,you know,moments like that,it's heaven on Earth for a dad.”Dekalb Walcott Jr.retired in 2009.The younger Dekalb says he's proud of being a second-generation firefighter.“You know,it makes me look forward to fatherhood as well,because I'm definitely looking forward to passing that torch down to my son.”1.The underlined phrase tag along in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.A.put out fireB.watch basketballC.follow his fatherD.ask his mother’s permission2.Dekalb Walcott III determined to become a firefighter at the age of _________ A.8 B.21 C.27 D.353.What did Dekalb Walcott Jr want to do before he was told that the fire was put out?A.Go on with the conversationB.Put it out all by himselfC.Supervise his sonD.Go to the fire scene4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.Dekalb Walcott Jr is proud to be a second-generation firefighter.B.Dekalb Walcott III wants his son to become a firefighter too.C.Dekalb Walcott Jr wants to pass the torch to Dekalb Walcott III.D.Dekalb Walcott III is proud that his son has become an excellent firefighter.5.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A.Passing The Torch: A Firefighter Dad's LegacyB.Putting Out Fire: A Challenging Job for Father and sonC.Dekalb Walcott III:A Second-generation FirefighterD.Dekalb Walcott Jr.:A Chicago Fire Chief3.My family moved from Taiwan to a small town in central Georgia,where my dad got a visa for his family and a job.I had just learned English,and from what little I could gather from my classmates,Santa Cla us would come down one’s chimney(烟囱)and put toys in one’s stocking on Christmas Eve! What a great country,I thought.After I looked up “stocking” in my Chinese-English dictionary,I knew what I had to do.On that fateful night,after everyone went to bed,I took my longest,cleanest knee sock and attached it to a nail already on the mantel(壁炉).Obviously,the previous owners of this house were no strangers to this Santa character.I woke up before everyone else on Christmas Day and ran to the fireplace.To make a sob story short,I was hit with the reality of an empty sock and the biggest lie ever told.I burst into tears,quickly took down the sock,and stuffed it in the back of a drawer.Santa was dead.Every December since then,the topic of Christmas memories would unavoidably come up,and I would amuse my friends with my poor-little-me story.I had to make it as funny as possible,or else I would cry.How could I know that Santa was just late? Nine years ago,on Christmas Eve,an older man with a white beard and a red cap knocked on my front door.He said,“I’ve been looking for you for twenty-five years.” He handed me a bulging red stocking,winked,and left.On top of the stocking was a card.It read: “For Becky—I may have missed you in the second grade,but you’ve always lived in my heart.Santa.”Through tear-blurred eyes,I recognized the handwriting of Jill,a friend I had met just twomonths before.I later discovered that the older man was her father.Jill had seen the hurt little girl underneath the thirty-something woman and decided to do something about it.So now I believe that Santa is real.I don’t mean the twinkle-eyed character of children’s mythology(神话) or the creation of American holiday marketers.Those Santas annoy and sadden me.I believe in the Santa Claus that live inside good and thoughtful people.This Santa does not return to the North Pole after a crazy delivery but lives each day purposefully,really listens to friends,and then plans deliberate acts of kindness.1.What does the underlined part “what I had to do” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.Waiting for Santa Claus.B.Putting a stocking on the mantel.C.Asking for gifts from her parents.D.Looking up “stocking” in the dictionary2.It can be inferred from the passage that the author’s parents ____.A.didn’t love their child at allB.didn’t know the previous owners of the houseC.didn’t know much about Christmas traditionD.didn’t have enough money to buy the author Christmas presents3.When the author told her friends about the story,she felt ______in her heart.A.proud B.amusing C.hate D.regret4.By writing the passage,the author speaks highly of ________A.friendshipB.parentingC.religionD.culture5.The author of the passage is probably ________.A.a teenagerB.a primary school studentC.a middle-aged womanD.a native American4.Cooking programs and classes for children seem to positively influence children's food preferences and behaviors,according to a recent review.And,although the review didn't look at long-term effects of such programs,the findings suggest that such programs might help children develop long-lasting healthy habits.This research comes at a time when childhood obesity(肥胖)rates have been risingrapidly.More than one-third of adolescents in the United States were obese in 2012,according to the U.S.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).This trend has been caused,at least in part,by a significant decrease in the amount of meals that people consume at home since the 1980s,according to background information in the study.Cooking education programs,such as Food Explorers,teach children about new healthy foods and how to prepare them.They also stress the importance of eating five fruits and vegetables every day.A volunteer parent explains a new food to the group,and the kids make something based on the lesson,such as fruit or vegetable salad.Depending on the program,kids may be sent home with information about healthy foods to bring to their parents,the review explained.The study team reviewed eight other studies that tested different types of cooking education programs.Children in these classes were between 5 and 12 years old,according to the review.The goal of the study team was to learn more about developing an efficient program to encourage healthy food choices that last a lifetime.The study found that it is particularly important to expose kids to healthy foods on a number of occasions.This makes them feel comfortable with the new foods,which helps them build healthy habits.The study stressed the importance of getting parents involved in(参与)their children's eating habits.Parents who are unable to enroll their kids in a cooking class can achieve similar benefits by having their kids help them while they prepare meals at home.Children are more comfortable at home,which makes them more receptive to new foods because they will make the connection to a positive experience.1.What can we infer from the second paragraph?A.Eating out frequently causes obesity.B.Childhood obesity is totally caused by eating habit.C.Childhood obesity rates have been rising rapidly since 2012D.Food consumption has decreased significantly since the 1980s.2.On cooking education programs,________.A.children learn how to prepare foods from their parentsB.children will learn how to cook in the company of their parentsC.children may learn information unknown to their parentsD.children focus more on cooking skills than on information about healthy foods 3.Which of the following is true according to the study?A.Parents should let their kids cook independently at home.B.A greater willingness to try new foods helps building healthy habits.C.Children who participate in cooking programs are less likely to become obese.D.Children who take cooking courses are more likely to choose fruits and vegetables as adults.4.Which of the following categories does this passage belong to?A.Education SystemsB.Science and TechnologyC.Parent-child RelationshipD.Public Health Research5.The purpose of the passage is _________.A.to inform the readerB.to entertain the readerC.to discuss with the readerD.to warn the reader5.Engineers should embrace(接受)the arts,Sir John O'Reilly,a fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology,argued in a lecture.About 59% of engineering companies in the IET's 2014 survey feared skill shortages could threaten(威胁)business."There is nothing as creative as engineering," Sir John told the reporter.He says science,technology,engineering and mathematics - often known as "Stem" subjects,are vital for a modern knowledge economy.But there is a massive shortfall in the number of recruits(招聘)- with a recent study by the Royal Academy of Engineering saying the UK needs to increase by as much as 50% the number of Stem graduates it produces.Delivering this year's Mountbatten Lecture at the Royal Institution,Sir John argued that engineers should recognise the role of the arts in their work - among other benefits; this could attract more people into the profession.The lecture,Full Steam Ahead for Growth,advocated a wider adoption -- Steam,or science,technology,engineering,arts and maths.Engineers should embrace the arts as being key to creativity and an important component of innovation(创新),crucial to creating new products and boosting future competitiveness,he argued."Engineering and technology is an increasingly diverse and creative field," said Sir John.Some university engineering departments already cooperated with art schools to develop understanding,he told the reporter.In particular he mentioned Cranfield University's Centre for Creative Competitive Design and Imperial College's work with the Royal College of Art.The two sets of people could work well together and more emphasis on the creative side of engineering could improve the success of products,he said."Aesthetics(美学) is part of it," he told the reporter,adding that Apple's iPod was not the firstdigital media player,nor the only one that worked - but it came to dominate the market "because it was nice to have".Sir John said he was not suggesting universities started requiring A-level art from engineering applicants - the key subjects for admission would continue to be maths and the sciences.But an emphasis on creative skills would help "broaden the pool and attract more people in".1.According to a recent study by the Royal Academy _______ .A.skill shortages could threaten businessB.engineering graduates are not as creative as expectedC.there are not enough arts graduates produced in the UK.D.the UK needs more graduates in science,technology,engineering and mathematics 2.According to the lecture Full Steam Ahead for Growth,_______ .A.engineers should cooperate with arts majorsB.Accepting the arts could attract more people into engineeringC.engineers should realize arts play the most important part in their workD.engineering and technology is as diverse and creative as before3.By giving the example of Apple's iPod,Sir John intends to _______ .A.stress the importance of artsB.stress the importance of marketingC.stress the importance of communicationD.stress the importance of science and technology4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.More university students should study arts instead of engineering.B.Engineering and technology is increasingly different and unrelated fields.C.The IET's skills survey raised concerns about the number of recruits to engineering.D.Students from some university engineering departments have already transferred to art schools5.What is the passage mainly about?A.Lack of creativity makes it difficult for the engineering major to find a satisfactory job.B.The key subjects for engineering majors remain to be maths and the sciences rather than arts.C.University engineering departments should cooperate with art schools to improve the success of products.D.Engineering needs to emphasize its creative side to encourage more young people to choose it as a career.三、阅读填空(共1小题)6.My Italian
