ATyler was born infected with HIV and his mother was also infected.From the very beginningof his life,he was dependent on medications (药物) to enable him to survive.When he was five,he had a tube surgically(外科手术上) inserted in a vein（静脉）in his chest.This tube was connected to a pump,which he carried in a small backpack on his back.Medications were connected to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to his bloodstream. At times,he also needed supplemented oxygen to support his breathing.Tyler wasn't willing to give up one single moment of his childhood to this deadly disease.Itwas not unusual to find him playing and racing around his backyard,wearing his backpack and dragging his tank of oxygen behind him in his little wagon（小推车）.All of us who knew Tyler were amazed at his pure joy in being alive and the energy it gave him.Tyler's mom often made jokes on him by telling him that he moved so fast she needed to dress him in red. That way,when she peered through the window to check on him playing in the yard,she could quickly spot him.This terrible disease eventually wore him down.He grew quite ill and,unfortunately,so did his HIV-infected mother.When it became clear that he wasn't going to survive,Tyler's mom talked tohim about death.She comforted him by telling Tyler that she was dying too,and that she would be with him soon in heaven.A few days before his death,Tyler beckoned(召唤) me over to his hospital bed and whispered,"I might die soon. I'm not scared.When I die,please dress me in red.Mom promised she's coming to heaven,too.I'll be playing when she gets there,and I want to make sure she can find me."1.Why did Tyler wear a backpack on his back when he was young?A.Because his mother gave it to him as a gift.B.Because he had no right to choose but to wear it.C.Because he wanted to be different from the other kids.D.Because there was a pump in it,which could help with his disease.2.Tyler asked the writer to dress him in red when he died in order to .A.show red is his favorite color.B.see the writer again in the hospital.C.make his mother recognize him easily.D.persuade his mother to keep her promise.3.What’s Tyler’s attitude towards death?A.Excited.B.Fearful.C.Doubtful.D.Optimistic.4.What does the writer want to tell us by writing this passage?A.Even a child can teach us a lot.B.Patients should be treated with respect.C.People should have great courage to face the problems.D.We should try our best to help those who are infected with HIV.BWe can achieve knowledge either actively or passively.We achieve it actively by direct experience,by testing and proving an idea,or by reasoning.We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else.Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive.Conditioned as we are to passive learning,it’s not surprising that we de pend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co–workers.Unfortunately,passive learning has a serious problem.It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay（传闻）and rumor.Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn’t show it to anyone.Then the person whispers it,word for word,to another person.That person,in turn,whispers it to still another, and so on,through all the people playing the game.Thelast person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it.Then the two written statements are compared.Typically,the original message has changed.what happens in daily life.The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own That’swords changes the story. Then,too,most people listen imperfectly.And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story,trying to improve on it,stamping it with their own personal style.Yet those who hear it think they know.This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writermay be restated as fact by another,who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue,unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.5.According to the passage,active learning may occur in .A.reading scientific journalsB.listening to the teacher in classC.doing a chemical experimentD.watching news programmes on TV6.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.classroomB.newspapersC.active learningD.passive learning7.The game Rumor is mentioned in Paragraph 4 in order to tell readers that .A.playing games can make people more activeB.people tend to like telling lies when playing gamesC.a message may be changed when being passed onD.people may have problems with their sense of hearing8.What can be inferred from the text?.

AThe Five Best Countries TO Move To For Retirement Retiring in a different country is gaming popularity.

The country readily welcomes immigrants and offers a simple residency process. With a monthly income of at least $ 1,000 per month from Social Security or a similar source, people enjoy a high standard of living at a much lower cost than the U. S. MalaysiaRetirees who choose to make Malaysia home will appreciate its rich culture and attractive scenery. Moreover, the country offers modern facilities at modest prices. Immigrants enjoy convenience and comfort in their daily life. You will find low-cost rental units, delicious street food, and various shopping malls.MexicoBecause it’s close to the U.S., Mexico draws more than a million American retirees to its borders. Increasing immigrant communities enjoy seaside living andconversations with friendly. English speaking locals. Plus, legal residents over the age of 60 receive airline, grocery, and restaurant discounts.PanamaGentle ocean wind takes the heat out of hot year-round temperatures, which has been the chief attraction to foreign retirees. Beautiful beaches and a booming economy also attract retirees to Panama. An income of $2,000 per month covers modest living costs. Furthermore, the country offers discounts to retirees with a special visa. EcuadorLazy coastal towns, sun-shining hot spots, and nature-filled views wait for immigrants seeking a carefree lifestyle. Public transportation costs in Ecuador make owning a vehicle unnecessary. A bus ride only costs 25 cents and taxi rides will run about $3.1. What do Costa Rica and Malaysia have in common?A. Convenient shoppingB. Relatively low living costC. Various cultural activitiesD. Simple immigration procedures2. Which country’s location specially attracts retirees from the U. S.?A. Malaysia’s B .Mexico’s c. Panama’s D. Ecuador’s3. What is the main reason for retirees to choose Panama?A. Beautiful beachesB. A booming economyC .A pleasant climate D. Discounts for retireesBSummertime has always been my absolute favorite time of the year. When I was in school, I just lived for the long summer holidays when I could play with my friend and my sister all day at our ease. Everyone has different associations of, summer. For some, they think of the smell of freshly cut grass, for others it's lying on a beach reading a book and for some it might be the taste of lemonade or ice cream.I am so happy to be spending this summer with my family and childhood friends here in the Highlands of Scotland after a year away in France.One of my favorite things to do in summer is go to see the Highland. These events happen all across the Highlands and Islands of Scotland over the summer and are a great chance for friends and family to get together and support the local community.A Highland Games event is a big gathering with food stalls(小摊), fair games for children and sports and athleties competitions. Many of the sports are very specific to Scottish tradition such as “tossing caber". This is a competition in which the competitors attempt to lift a full-length tree log and to toss it up in the air. The oldest Highland Games of Scotland date back, to AD 1344 and they are now an iconic part of the Scottish summer.Summer just would not be complete for me without my favorite fruit-strawberries Here in the Highlands, strawberries are grown as one of our best-sellers over the summer months and one thing I love to do on a warm summer afternoon is to pick some strawberries to eat, with cream at the end of the day. If you come here, I think you will fall in love with them..4. Why did the author treasured summertime as a child?A It was along hot holiday for him. B. He could see his brother every dayC. He was able to feel quite relaxed.D. It was the best time to live a life5. What can we learn according to the first paragraph?A. The author was born and raised in France.B. The author spent one year out of his countryC. The author moved to Scotland with his familyD. The author devoted much time to reading books.6. What will you see at a Highland Games event?A. People giving a hand to those in needB. Kinds of delicious food and happy childrenC. A cultural display of Scottish traditionD. Some extreme sports competitions.7. Why does the author refer to strawberries?A. To show he only takes interest in this fruit.B. To prove Highlands is best for summerC. To attract readers to buy strawberriesD. To suggest strawberries are the best for you. .CStudents should be able to show what they know. Many folks take this as a self-evident truth. But I think it demands closer examination.Possessing a skill or piece of knowledge is not the same thing as being able to show it. This is why many smart young people hate school. Understanding, figuring out, and getting a handle on a piece of knowledge are really exciting, but having to prove to somebody else that you understand is a big fat pain in the neck.Finding proof of student learning is a huge part of the teacher's job, and whether it is done poorly or not makes all the difference in that teacher's effectiveness. There is a huge difference between "How do I figure out if this student understands" and "How do I make this student prove to me he gets it." The first is a valuable approach; the second is the first step on the road toward wasting everybody's time.And the re’s the problem. If we start with the assumption that a student who knows must be able to show his knowledge to our satisfaction, we will be traveling down the wrong road. The more we demand that students prove to us that they know the stuff, the more we will design artificial tasks that demand a set of skills and knowledge entirely different from the skills and knowledge we really want to measure.As a classroom teacher, I have to remember that the burden is on me to find a way to see what my students know; the burden is not on them to put on whatever trained monkey show I design for my own ease and convenience.It may not be the worst thing ever to say "Students should be able to show what they know." But I think it's far more useful to say, "Teachers should be able to discover what students know”.8.What does the underlined phrase in the second paragraph mean?A. Very dangerous.B. Very annoying. C Very difficult. D Vary frequent.9. According to the third paragraph, a teacher should have the ability to_______________A. discover whether his students knowB. avoid wasting the precious time in classC. apply various approaches while teachingD. give students the chance to prove themselves10. What does the author think of the artificial tasks designed to test students' learning?A. They should be limited in number.B. They are a huge burden on teachersC. They should mainly focus on effectiveness.D. They slide away from their original purpose11. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Students should be able to show what they know.B. There are many ways to find proof of student leaning.C. Teachers should be able to discover what students knowD. There should be better understanding between teachers and studentDA new keyboard can tell whether you are its owner. The keyboard records information about the typing pattern and sends it to a computer program. The program then checks to see if the pattern matches the night user. If not, an alarm sounds, and the computer locks the typist out. It locks out anyone else, even if the person knows password. Wh at’s more, this device needs no batteries. It harvests all the energy it needs from the action of your typing. Besides, the keyboard is also self-cleaning and the keys are free of damage from water, oil and dirt.The keys of the new keyboard are made of the same inexpensive plastic that might be found on any other standard keyboard. But instead of being smooth, the keys have millions of tiny plastic nanowires(纳米线) on their surface area to every key, increasing the effective contact area between the plastics and fingers. This ensures that there's enough power to run the keyboard as someone types.Liming Dai, a scientist, did not work on the new keyboard, but he thinks the design could be important in getting better performance from a variety of devices. "It couldalso be applied to a touch screen, for instance, "Dai says. "Then smart phones and notepads could harvest energy from the action of someone typing or drawing.”"Future work might make the keyboard even more useful, "Dai adds. "A later design might build tiny capacitors (电容器)onto the nanowires, " he suggests Capacitors are little deices that temporarily store electric charges. Those might then LEDS to light a Keyboard in the dark.Zhonglin Wang is a co-designer of the new keyboard. His team has built a working model of the keyboard. "If a company decides to fund(投资) its production, this keyboard could be in stores in as little as two years, "says Wang.12. How does the new keyboard tell whether you are its owner?A. By matching the typing pattern to the right userB. By sending alarms to a computer programC. By checking the right user’s passwords.D. By recording information about the typing pattern13. Why are there many nanowires on the surface of the keys?A. To increase the effective contact areaB. To improve the speed of typingC. To make the keys smooth.D To help produce power14. what's Dai's attitude to the new keyboard?A Unconcerned.B Doubtful.C Positive.D Critical15. What is the best title for the text?A. A New Keyboard Made of NanowiresB. A New Keyboard Entirely Owned by youC. A New keyboard's FutureD Anew Keyboard Powered by Typing第二节(共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ATyler was born infected with HIV and his mother was also infected.From the very beginning of his life,he was dependent on medications (药物) to enable him to survive.When he was five,he had a tube surgically(外科手术上) inserted in a vein〔静脉〕in his chest.This tube was connected to a pump,which he carried in a small backpack on his back.Medications were connected to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to his bloodstream.

It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn’t show it to anyone.Then the person whispers it,word for word,to another person.That person,in turn,whispers it to still another, and so on,through all the people playing thegame.The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it.Then the two written statements are compared.Typically,the original message has changed.That’s what happens in daily life.The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story.

AI paid a visit to Cambridge last January. Though the trip took me 5 hours and it rained the whole day with strong winds there, the town deserved a visit.The bus started at 6:10 a. m. It stopped at 4 airports before we finally arrived, which wasted more time than we expected. Tired with long sitting, one passenger stood up to relax his numbed legs. The driver asked him to sit down but in vain. So he pulled up and said seriously, "Either you get off or sit down. "To him, safety is the first policy.Cambridge consists of nearly thirty colleges. The oldest part of the university was built in the 13th century while the newest was founded in the mid 1960s. The number of the students is so great that many students live in lodgings(出租房)and move into college for their final year.Cambridge is called a university town because there is no clear separation between the university buildings and the rest of the city. The university is not just one part of the town; it is all over the town. The heart of Cambridge has shops, pubs, and supermarkets, but most of it is university-colleges, departments,libraries, clubs and other places for university staff and students. Students fill the shops, cafes, banks and churches, making these as well part of the university.With over 10, 000 undergraduates and postgraduates, the town is a busy place indeed. Students here are not allowed to keep cars. If you happen to be walking in the street during a break, better stop a moment to avoid the boiling sea of bicycles hurrying in all directions, carrying students from one college or lecture room to another.1. The writer believed that the trip took more time because of________A. bad weatherB. unexpected stops of the busC. one passengerD. an accident on the way2. Why is Cambridge called a university town?A. It has 10, 000 undergraduates and postgraduates.B. There are nearly thirty colleges in the town.C. All the students and staff live in the town.D. The university and town are fully combined.3. It can be inferred that most Cambridge students take________ as their first means of transport.A. boatsB. carsC. bicyclesD. busesBWhen I was a b aby, I entertained you and made you laugh. Whenever I was “bad”, you'd shake your finger at me and ask, “How could you?”--but then you'd give up, and roll me over for a belly scratch and I believed that life could not be any more perfect.My housetraining was a long process, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. We went for long walks, runs in the park and car rides. We stopped for ice cream. I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.Gradually, you began spending more time at work and on your career, and more time searching for a human mate. Eventually, you fell in love. She, now your wife, is not a dog person, but I still welcomed her into our home. I was happy because you were happy. Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement, I was fascinated by their pinkness, how they smelled, and I wanted to mother them too. Your wife was afraid I would bite them. But nevertheless, as they began to grow, I became their friend.Now, you have a new job in another city and you and they will be moving to an apartment that does not allow pets. You've made the right decision for your “family”, but there was a time when I was your only family.I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the dog pound. It smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness. You filled out the paperwork and said, “I know you will find a good home for her.” They shrugged and gave you a pained look. The children were in tears as they waved me goodbye. And “How could you?” were the only three words that swept over my mind.Is it better to live with hope or without hope? At first, whenever anyone passed my pen (围栏), I rushed to the front, hoping it was you, that you had changed your mind and that this was all a bad dream.My beloved master, I will think of you and wait for you forever. I hope you receive more faithfulness from your family than you showed to me.4. Who tells this story?A. A dog.B. Achild. C. A dog's owner. D.A dog trainer5. Why did the dog's owner take his dog to the pound?A. He had a newborn baby.B. His wife did not like the dog.C. He was moving into a new building.D. He thought the dog too troublesome.6.Which is true about the dog when it lived at the pound?A. It hoped to be adopted by another family.B. It continued to love its former owner.C. It did not trust humans any more.D. It was excited about the pound.7.What is the theme of the story?A. Be ready forchanges. B. Never expect too much.C. Never complain about your life.D. Be faithful to those who love you.CWhen I was young I wanted to be a model，so when a national contest was staged，I convinced my parents to take me for an audition(试演). I was selected and told I had potential．They said that for only $900 I could attend a weekend event which dozens of the most prestigious(有声望的)modeling agencies from around the world would attend．At l 3，my hopes of fame and fortune clouded all judgment and I begged my parents to let me go．We have never been rich，but they saw my enthusiasm and agreed．I imagined being signed by some famous model companies．For months，any boredom or disappointment I faced was pushed aside because I knew I would soon have the chance to be a real model．I thought I would grace the covers of famous magazines!Of course，I wasn’t signed，but what hurt the most was being told that if I grew to 5'9”(about 1．75metres)I could be a success．I prayed for a growth spurt(冲刺)because I could not imagine giving up my dream．I made an appointment with a local modeling agency and the agent demanded $500 for classes．$500 for a photo shoot and $300 for other expenses．My parents only agreed after hours and hours of me begging．The agency sent me out on a few auditions，but with every day I didn’t receive a call，I grew more depressed．The final straw came in July after I had decided to focus on commercial modeling．There was an open call in New York City．We spent hours driving and another few hours waiting, only to be told that I was too short．I was devastated(感到难以承受的)．Years later，I realized that the trip to New York was good as it made me notice I d idn’t actually love modeling，just the idea of it．I wanted to be special and I was innocently determined to reach an impossible goal．The experience has made me stronger and that will help me in the future．8．What’s the main reason why the author wanted to b e a model?A．She won a national contest． B．She wanted to get reputation and wealth．C．She was urged by some modeling agencies． D．She had full potential to be a successful model．9．What was it that made the author end her attempt to become a model?A．Her parents were strongly against it． B．She realized that it was impossible for her．C．Even a local modeling agency turned her down． D．She didn’t actually love the idea of modeling．10．The underlined phrase ‘'The final straw” probab ly means __________ . A．the refusal in spite of her long hours of waiting and workingB．the final result that she was admired by the model companyC．the final audition given by the famous agencyD．the decision she made at last not to be a model11．What did the author learn from her experience of struggling to be a model? A．Where there’s a will，there’s a way． B．Being a model is not that easy．C．We should have our own judgment and should not just follow others．D．We might set unpractical goals but the experiences really help us grow．DCanyonlands National Park is a famous tourist attraction in Utah where visitorscan see arches (拱门) and other beautiful rock formations.Canyonlands National Park is a wild, lonely area of rocks, rivers and desert plants. Only Native Americans, cowboys, and explorers entered this area before the park was set up in 1964. Even today, it is difficult to walk or ride through the park. The roads are still made of dirt. Driving requires a special vehicle. The National Park Service says Canyon－lands National Park is wild America.Rivers created the area as they cut rocks into many different formations. At the center of the park are two deep canyons carved by the Green and Colorado Rivers. Three areas that surround these rivers are included in the park.One of these areas is called the Maze District. This area includes rock art made by people who lived there more than 2,000 years ago. Yet many people today cannot see the Maze District because it is so difficult to reach. The area is one of the loneliest and wildest areas in the United States.Another area of the park is called the Needles. It includes long, thin, red and white rocks that reach high into the air like fingers on a hand.A good way to see all the areas of Canyonlands National Park is to fly over it.A one hour trip in a small airplane makes it possible to see the park's red rocks, arches and flat areas where ancient Indian people once lived.From high in the air, visitors can clearly see the third area of the park--a high broad flat rock known as the Island in the Sky. The island was formed between the two rivers.Another interesting formation is called the Upheaval Dome. This is a huge hole about four hundred and fifty meters deep and one point five kilometers wide. It is considered to be the most unusual geological (地质的) structure in the area. 12．Which of the following statements describes Canyonlands National Park correctly? A．No vehicle is available to go through the park. B．The park today still remains as it was in the past.C．There is no access for people to get close to it.

B．It is known to the outside world.C．Its rock art dates back over 2,000 years. D．It is the loneliest and wildest place in the US.14．In order to have a good view of the park, you should go sightseeing________.

甘谷一中2016——2017学年高三级第三次检测考试英语试题第1卷第一部分：阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节：(共15小题；每小题3分，满分45分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
AA new generation addiction is quickly spreading all over the world．Weboholism，a twentieth century disease，affects people from different ages．They surf the Net，use e-mail and speak in chat rooms．They spend many hours on the computer，and it becomes a compulsive habit．They cannot stop, which affects their lives．Decades ago，no one thought that using computer could become compulsive behavior that could affect the social and physical life of computer users．This obsessional behavior has affected teenagers and college students．They are likely to log on computers and spend long hours at different websites．They become hooked on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected by this addiction．They spend all their free time surfing and can’t concentrate on homework，so this addiction influences their grades and success at school．Because they can find everything on the websites，they hang out there．Moreover，this addiction to websites influences their social life．They spend more time in front of computers than with their friends．The relation with their friends changes．The virtual life becomes more important than their real life．They have a new language that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society．Because of the change in their behavior，they begin to isolate(脱离）themselves from the real society and live with their virtual friends．They share their emotions and feelings with friends who they have never met in their life．Althoughthey feel confident on the computer，they are not confident with real live friends they have known all their life．It is a problem for the future．This addictive behavior is beginning to affect the entire world．1．The main idea of the passage is about _______ ．A．the cause of weboholism B．the influence of weboholismC．the advantage of weboholism D．the popularity of weboholism2．We can infer from the passage that _______ ．A．weboholism has the greatest effect on teenagersB．people are addicted to games on the InternetC．students can hardly balance real and virtual lifeD．virtual life is more vivid and attractive anyway3．The author’s attitude towards weboholism is that of being _____ ．A．optimistic B．indifferent C．acceptable D．criticalBWhat if you could have your whole backpack at the touch of your fingertips? In the first month of the Apple iPads release，25 million were sold! People across the world use iPads for all sorts of different things , but one of their finest qualities is the ability to be a textbook．Schools have every reason to do away with their school books and switch to iPads．To begin with，iPads are less expensive．Textbooks become outdated and schools have to buy new books, but with an iPad schools can update them for free．Therefore，they can use the saved money for other programs．Schools don’t have to spend $500 every year for iPads because they last a while and can be updated．Moreover，in high school，textbooks have an average of 4.8 pounds each．Students usually have multiple classes，which results in multiple textbooks．Heavy backpacks filled with books can cause back problem．A solution to that is an iPad，which only weighs 1.33 pounds and can hold all of a student’s textbooks．Third, schools should get rid of their textbooks and get iPads because they havemore capabilities or functions．Some might think all of the apps are distracting(分心）, but the apps actually make iPads more efficient．IPads absorb the need to buy calculators，dictionaries，and other items that are found within the device. Textbooks cannot do those tasks，but iPads can easily do them with just a tap of the fingertip．Lastly, iPads are a better choice for schools instead of textbooks because these devices allow students to access their learning anywhere at any time．These tablets (平板）are perfect for busy students．With iPads，they find it easier to get their homework done．In conclusion，schools should get rid of their clumsy textbooks and switch to iPads．IPads have allowed this generation to have their entire backpack in the palm （手掌）of their hands．4．What will the author agree on?A．The sales situation of Apple iPads is not good．B．There will be some fees for updating iPads．C．The number of students’ textbooks is large because of many different classes．D．All of the apps are distracting．5．According to the passage，the reason why iPads are a better choice for students is that _________ ．A．they can make students feel happyB．their quality is better than textbooksC．they can solve every difficult taskD．it is more convenient for students to study with iPads6．In the last paragraph，the underlined word“clumsy”most probablymeans“_________”．A．awkward B．difficult C．handy D．impressive7．What’s the best title for the passage?A．The Usage of iPads B．iPads or TextbooksC．Apple iPads’Release D．iPads’ PopularityCDoes Fame Drive You Crazy?Although being famous might sound like a dream come true，today’s stars，feeling like zoo animals，face pressures that few of us can imagine．They are at the center of much of the world’s attention．Paparazzi(狗仔队)camp outside their homes，cameras ready．Tabloids(小报) publish thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature!According to psychologist Christina Villarreal，celebrities--famous people–worry constantly about their public appearance．Eventually, they start to lose track of who they really are seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them，not as the p eople they were before everyone knew their names.“Over time，”Villarreal says，“they feel separated and alone．”The phenomenon of tracking celebrities has been around for ages．In the 4th century B．C．，painters followed Alexander the Great into battle，hoping to picture his victories for his admirers．When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19th century，his sold-out readings attracted thousands of fans，leading him to complain about his lack of privacy．Tabloids of the 1920s and 1930s ran articles about film-stars in much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do．Being a public figure today，however，is a lot more difficult than it used to be．Superstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras．When they say something silly or do something ridiculous，there is always the Internet to spread the news in minutes and keep their “story” alive forever．If fame is such a bad headache, why aren’t all celebrities running away from it ? The answer is that there are still ways to deal with it．Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big cities．They focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place．Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice．Still, even stars who enjoy full justice often complain about how hard their lives are．They hate being followed andspied.

A BEACH in Bodrum, a resort city in Turkey, saw the horror of a human tragedy onSept2． A little boy, dressed in a red shirt and blue shorts, lay face down in thesand． Sadly, 3﹣year﹣old Alan Kurdi would never wake up again．Alan drowned along with at least 12 Syrians, including his 5﹣year﹣old brother and mother． They were on a journey from Turkey to Greece． Trying to make their simple but dangerous dream of a safe home a reality, they paid with their lives．The tragic photographs of Alan's lifeless body shocked the world． "What has drowned in the Mediterranean（地中海） is not only the refugees（难民）, but humanity, " said Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan．Refugees, according to the UN, are people escaping war or persecution（迫害）． Their situation is often so dangerous that they cross national borders to look for safety in nearby countries． The Kurdis wanted to head for Europe by crossing to the Greek island of Kosfrom Bodrum by boat．The Kurdis' tragedy was just one story from over 1, 800 people who have died in the firstsix months of this year while trying to cross the Mediterranean to Europe, according to statistics released by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees （UNHCR）, on July1．Together with refugees from Syria, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Somalia andNigeria, "migrants（移民） who are journeying to Europe from Africa and the Middle East have seen a sharp climb this year" reported ABC news．Migrants, however, are not necessarily refugees． A migrant may leave his or her country for many reasons apart from war, terrorism（恐怖主义）, and persecution． They may seek employment, life with their family, or study in another country．European countries have taken different approaches to the crisis． Germany and France are opening their doors to more asylum（避难） seekers, those who say they are refugees but the status has not been decided by the UNHCR or a government． On Sept 8, reportedthe Associated Press, Germany's vice﹣chancellor Sigmar Gabriel said his country could take in 500, 000 refugees every year for the next several years． According to FoxNews, Germany, the largest economy in Europe, is expecting to take in 800, 000 refugees in 2015． And on Sept 7, France said it would take 24, 000 refugees over two years． Other countries, such as Poland, Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic, have been unwilling to take a large number of refugees for various reasons including economic problems and safety concerns．Despite disagreements among EU members, the UB's Refugee Chief Antonio Guterres said the crisis was "manageable" if member states could agree a joint plan．4． Alan and his family headed for Greece to________．A． enjoy their holidayB． look for a safe homeC． visit their relativesD． escape religious persecution（1） How have European countries reacted to the refugee crisis？________A Some of them are trying to make a difference．B Most of them have agreed to a joint plan．C Most of them are unwilling to take them in．D They are waiting for a decision from the UNHCR．（2） Which of the following words best describes the Turkish president's tone in Paragraph 3？________A Calm．B Urging．C Critical．D Disbelieving．（3） What's the best title of the passage？________A Tragedy in Europe．B Never Wake UP．C Abandoning Motherland．D The End of Dreams．3. A new study has found the amount of antibiotics（抗生素） given to farm animals is expected to increase by two﹣thirds over the next 15 years． Researchers are linking the growing dependence on the drugs to the rising demand for meat, milk andeggs． However, the drugs could quicken the development of antibiotics﹣resistant（对抗生素有抗药力的） infections． Such infections are already a major public health concern in the United States．The World Health Organization notes when people stop living in poverty, the first thing they want to do is eat better rather than earn more money． For most people, that means their diet should contain more meat． With the rapid development of Asia, people there are eating nearly four times as much meat, milk and dairy products as they did 50 years ago． To meet that demand, farms have put many animals into smaller spaces． As the animals are crowded together, the easiest way to deal with some of the problems of crowding is to give them antibiotics． It's clear that antibiotics help the animals stay healthy in a crowded environment and grow faster． But bacteria can develop resistance to the drugs gradually． Nowadays, doctors find antibiotics that once worked against the infections no longer work． The bacteria have learned ways to fight against the drugs． The heavy use of antibiotics in animals is responsible for the growth of antibiotic resistance worldwide． In the United States, at least two million people get drug﹣resistant infections each year and at least 23, 000 die from an infection．Europe has banned the use of antibiotics to increase animal growth． And the United States is hoping to persuade farmers to stop using antibiotics for that purpose．（1） What accounts for the increasing amount of antibiotics given to farm animals？________A The need for eating diversely．B The limited farm technology．C The less effective antibiotics．D The development of economy．（2） What does getting rid of poverty mean for most people？________A Making a lot of money．B Having more meat to eat．C Living in a better environment．D Focusing more on health．（3） From the passage， we can infer that using antibiotics too often in farmanimals________．A causes animals to get infected more easily．B will lead to the failure of all the antibiotics．C makes antibiotic﹣resistant bacteria spread to people．D has a negative effect on the growth of animals．（4） What's the passage mainly about？________A A new way of raising farm animals．B The abuse of antibiotics in farm animals．C The disadvantages of using antibiotics．D The reason for banning the use of antibiotics．4.

Most of us might think of crowds of teenagers in a 1950's movie house watching Bwana Devil in 3﹣D．But 3﹣D technology made its first appearance on the scene in 1838with the first stereoscope（体视镜）．And the first actual 3﹣D movie was a 1903 film called Le Ariveed'un Train．Although it has such a long history, the technology has still remained based on one simple principle﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣to make 3﹣D effects you must find a way to project two slightly different pictures to each eye．Modern 3﹣D technology works by rapidly flickering（闪动）two versions of the movie and projecting them onto each eye．The brain does the rest of the work, combining the two pictures together into one and giving the show the appearance of depth, the third dimension．But does this exposure, especially long exposures, cause harm to the child's developing brain and visual system? Unfortunately, long﹣term studies on new flicker digital 3﹣D technology and children aren't yet available．We do not know if regular or daily 3﹣D viewing over years affects the developing visual system, although older 3﹣D methods basically do the same thing and are not considered harmful．The question of possible harm in modern 3﹣D use in TV is really based on two facts: the amount of time children will now be watching 3﹣D TV each day and the sensitivity some children show in reaction to 3﹣D viewing．It is difficult to make actual lab studies of longer term 3﹣D viewing in children because of the possible harm of the experiment．Researchers will have to wait until 3﹣D TV technology is already in the marketplace for a number of years, then check heavy 3﹣D TV watchers and compare them with non﹣watchers．With a 3﹣D television technology in the home, we will soon be able to answer the question of whether or not longer and more frequent periods of 3﹣D exposure cause more changes in the visual system．We may find that the bigger problem is the introduction of a new technology that leads to even more time spent on TV rather than playing outdoors．（1）According to the text，3﹣D technology________A was refused by people when it first appeared．B will soon change the way we watch TV．C does no good to our visual system．D has a history of nearly 200 years．（2）Paragraph 2is mainly about________A how 3﹣D technology works．B why 3﹣D movies are popular．C the history of3﹣D technology． D the influence of 3﹣D technology．（3）What's the method suggested in paragraph 4？________A To wait and see．B To carry out lab studies．C To stop making 3﹣D movies． D To improve 3﹣D technology．（4）The author's purpose in writing the text is to________A ask children not to watch 3﹣D movies．B discuss if 3﹣D viewing is harmful to children．C introduce the advantages of 3﹣D technology． D predict the development of 3﹣D technology．4. Developed and developing nations can learn from each other seeking a low carbon economy, a Chinese government official said in Shanghai yesterday．"China doesn't ________ developed nations in terms of energy saving and green economy", said Zhou Changyi, director of the energy saving department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology．"While we can learn many aspects from developed nations, they also should learn something from us, such as water conservation, "Zhou said in a speech during the new Path of China's Industrialization forum at the ongoing China International Industry Fair 2009． He said industrialized nations and China are dealing with different issues to combat climate change．The United Kingdom, for example, is concerned about transport, buildings and new energy in reducing carbon emissions．For China, the most urgent task is how to realize new type of industrialization and avoid mistakes that other countries made when they industrialized．As such, overseas exhibitors at this year's fair are showing ways to help China achieve low carbon emissions in the industrial section．Swiss power and automation technology group ABB called for a stronger focus on product lifecycle assessment, or LCA, which is used to study the environmental impact of a product from the research and manufacturing stage through its usage and recycling．Tobias Becker, head of ABB's process automation division for North Asia and China, said LCA is an effective tool in helping manufacturing industries to reduce carbon emissions．LCA shows that industrial customers should focus on a product's environmental impact throughout its lifecycle instead of on its initial investment or ready to use stage．For example, a motor's initial investment accounts for only 3percent of its lifecycle cost, while 94percent goes to fuel consumption and the rest to maintenance．Richard Hausmann, North East Asia CEO of Siemens, said, "The color of future industrialization is green．"The Germany Company recently announces that it wants to receive orders worth more than 6 billion Euros （US 8.8billion） for intelligent net power networks, Smart Grid, over the next five years．Siemens has set a 20 percent market share target for the global smart grid business．A smart grid delivers electricity from suppliers to consumers using digital technology, advanced sensors specialized computers that save energy, reduce costs and increase reliability．The United States and China are considered the two biggest markets for smart grid．（1）"________"can replace the underlined word"lag"in paragraph 2．A Fall behind B． C Attack D．（2）We can infer________ from the eleventh paragraph of this passage．A Siemens has occupied 20 percent market share for the global smart gridbusiness． B Siemens received orders worth 6billion Euros recently． C Siemens will earn $ 8. D Siemens'plan about Smart Grid may come true in the future．（3）________about Smart Grid isn't mentioned in the passage．A Energy saving B． C Security D．（4）The best title for the passage is________．A Developed and Developing Nations Can Learn From Each Other．B Low carbon Economy﹣a Shared Goal．C Intelligent Power Networks．D Two Biggest Markets for Smart Grid．第二节（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．选项中的两项为多余选项．5.Investing in yourselfFiguring out how to invest your money can be a difficult task．This is something that you will want to learn how to do．（1）_______ Things that will improve your knowledge，skills or health are all great investments．However，before you start，you need to be clear about what you will gain out of doing all of these things．You may think investing in yourself means investing in your education．（2）_______．There are some other things you can do as well as buying a gym membership or learning a new skill．So what are some specific things you can do？（3）_______．Reading books can really expand your mind and allow you to learn different skills and gain knowledge．I'm talking about the books where you will actually learn a new skill，not fiction books．You can also take courses and attend seminars．These programs are taught by people with a high level of knowledge or skill．（4）_______．Only in this way can you avoid being fooled by some sales presentation．Moreover，investing in yourself is a safe way to keep your money．Although a savings account is seen as the most secure investment，that isn't 100% safe．Even if you never experience your bank closing down，the return is little when inflation（通货膨胀） is taken into consideration．（5）_______．But over time，they will show up in terms of your happiness level as well as your level of success．A．This is just one way．B．The benefits will stay with you．C．If you aren't a reader，you should start with that．D．The more you do this，the more valuable you will be．E．Of course，you need to do some research before investing．F．The best way to invest your money is to invest it in yourself．G．When you invest in yourself，you may not see gains right away．第二部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节完形填空6.
