AOur house was directly across the street from the clinic entrance of John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to the patients at the clinic.One evening as I was fixing supper, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly awful-looking man. He’s hardly taller than my eigh t-year-old son. “Good evening. I’ve come to see if you’ve a room. I came for a treatment this morning from the eastern shore, and there’s no bus till morning.” He told me he’d been hunting for a room since noon but with no success. “I guess it’s my face (I)know it looks terrible, but my doctor says with a few more treatments…” For a moment I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: “I could sleep in this chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning.”I told him we would find him a bed. When I had finished the dishes, I talked with him. He told me he fished for a living to support his five children, and his wife, who was hopelessly crippled (残疾的) from a back injury. He didn’t tell it by way of complaint. Next morning, just before he left, as if asking a great favor, he said, “Could I come back and stay the next time?” He added, “Your children made me feel at home.”On his next trip he arrived a little after seven in the morning. As a gift, he brought a big fish and the largest oysters (牡蛎) I had ever seen. I knew his bus left at 4:00 a.m. and I wondered what time he had to get up in order to do this for us.In the years he came to stay overnight with us and there was never a time that he did not bring us vegetables from his garden. I know our family always will be grateful to have known him; from him we learned how to accept the bad without complaint when facing the misfortune.21. Why did the author agree to let the man spend the night in his house at last?A. Because the man said others refused to accommodate him.B. Because the man said he would not cause much inconvenience.C. Because the man said he had come from the eastern shore.D. Because the man said he had been hunting for a room since noon.22. How long would it take the man to travel from his home to Baltimore by bus?A. About 1 hour.B. About 2 hours.C. About 3 hours.D. About 4hours.23. From the text we can know that __________.A. the author’s children were kind and friendly to the manB. the man was fed up with his hard-work and his familyC. John Hopkins Hospital provided rooms for the patients to live inD. the author and his family were thought highly of by his neighbors24. The author’s family were grateful to know the man because __________.A. he often brought them fish and vegetables from his gardenB. he paid them money for his stayingC. he taught them how to accept the bad without complaintD. he stayed only overnight with the writer’s familyBTayka Hotel De SalWhere: Tahua, BoliviaHow much: About $95 a nightWhy it’s cool:You’ve stayed at hotels made of brick or wood, but salt? That’s something few can claim. Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt—including thebeds (though you’ll sleep on regular mattresses (床垫) and blankets).The hotel sitson the Salar de Uyuni, a prehistoric dried-up lake that’s the world’s biggest saltflat. Builders use the salt from the 4,633-square-mile flat to make the bricks, andglue them together with a paste of wet salt that hardens when it dries. When rainstarts to dissolve the hotel, the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthenthe bricks.Green Magic Nature ResortWhere: Vythiri, IndiaHow much: About $240 a nightWhy it’s cool: Ridding a pulley(滑轮)-operated lift 86 feet to your treetoproom is just the start of your adventure. As you look out of your open window—thereis no glass!—you watch monkeys and birds in the rain forest canopy. Later you mighttest your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part ofthe hotel, or just sit on your bamboo bed and read. You don’t even have to comedown for breakfast—the hotel will send it up on the pulley-drawn “elevator”.Dog Bark Park Inn B&BWhere: Cottonwood, IdahoHow much: $92 a nightWhy it’s cool:This doghouse isn’t just for the family pet. Sweet Willy isa 30-foot-tall dog with guest rooms in his belly. Climb the wooden stairs besidehis hind leg to enter the door in his side. You can relax in the main bedroom, goup a few st eps of the loft in Willy’s head, or hang out inside his nose. Althoughyou have a full private bathroom in your quarters, there is also a toilet in the12-foot-tall fire hydrant outside.Gamirasu Cave HotelWhere: Ayvali, TurkeyHow much: Between $130 and $475 a night.Why it’s cool: This is caveman cool! Experience what it was like 5,000 yearsago, when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash. But your stay will be much more modern. Bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel, and the white volcanic ash, called tufa, keeps the rooms cool, about 65℉in summer.(Don’t worry—there is heat in winter.)25. What is the similarity of the four hotels?A. Being expensive.B. Being beautiful.C. Being natural.D. Being unique.26. What does the underlined part “Sweet Willy” refer to?A.

Which of the hotel makes you have a feeling of living in the far past?A. Tayka Hotel De SalB. Green Magic Nature ResortC. Dog Bark Park Inn B&BD. Gamirasu Cave HotelC“Selfie” (自拍) joins ranks of dictionary words.In 2002, an Australian man went to his friend’s 21st birthday party. He got drunk, tripped on some steps and cut his lip. He took a picture of his injuries and shared it with his friends on an online forum. “And sorry about the focus,” he wrote, “it was a selfie.” That was the first recorded use of the word “selfie”, according to linguistic experts at Oxford Dictionaries.On Nov 19, Oxford Dictionaries declared “selfie” Word of the Year for 2013, in honor of the term having taken over the world thanks to millions of smart phone self-portraits and the resulting shares on social media.So what does the choice of the word say about our culture? Mary Elizabeth Williams, writing in Salon magazine, says the word reminds us that contemporary culture is defined by our narcissism(自恋).Megan Jackson from a local newspaper points out a selfie may only focus on appearance.Selfies invite judgment based on appearance alone. What kind of cultural influence does this have on women? Erin Gloria Ryan on Jezebel says selfies teach young woman to obsess over their appearance and judge themselves on the basis of beauty rather than accomplishments. “They’re a reflection of the warped way we teach girls to see themselves as decorative,” said Ryan.In Slate magazine, Rachel Simmons has the opposite view. She argues that selfies are an example of young women promoting themselves and taking control of their own self-presentation. Think of each one, she says, as “a tiny pulse of girl pride —a shout-ou t to the self”.28. Which of the following is true about the first use of “selfie”?A. The Australian man created it to celebrate his friend’s 21st birthday.B. The Australian man created by chance when he got drunk and shared his photo online.C. The Oxford Dictionary used it to thank the creation of smart phone.D. The social media were so advanced that they made the word transmitted.29. The underlined word “tripped” in the first paragraph probably means“________”.A. traveledB. stepped lightlyC. fell downD. made mistakes30. Who holds a positive opinion towards selfie in the life of women?A. Mary Elizabeth.B. Megan Jackson.C. Erin Gloria Ryan.D. Rachel Simmons.31. The text is mainly concerned with ________.A. the introduction of the word “selfie”B. the choice of the word “selfie”C. the history of the word “selfie”D. the characteristics of the word “selfie”DPeople typically wash their hands seven times a day in the United States, but they do it at a far higher temperature than is necessary to kill germs (病菌) , a new study says. The energy waste is equivalent to the fuel use of a small country. Amanda R. Carrico, a research assistant professor at the Vanderbilt Institute for Energy and Environment in Tennessee, told National Geographic that hand washing is often “a case where people act in ways that they think are in their best interest, but they in fact have inaccurate beliefs or outdated perceptions.”Carrico said, “It’s certainly true that heat kills bacteria, but if you were going to use hot water to kill them it would have to be way too hot for you to tolerate.”Carrico said that after a review of the scientific literature, her team found “no e vidence that using hot water that a person could stand would have any benefit in killing bacteria.” Even water as cold as 40°F (4.4°C) appeared to reduce bacteria as well as hotter water, if hands were scrubbed, rinsed(冲洗)and dried properly.Using hot water to wash hands is therefore unnecessary, as well as wasteful, Carrico said, particularly when it comes to the environment. According to her research, people use warm or hot water 64 percent of the time when they wash their hands. Using that number, Ca rrico’s team calculated a significant impact on the planet.“Although the choice of water temperature during a single hand wash may appear unimportant, when multiplied by the nearly 800 billion hand washes performed by Americans each year, this practice results in more than 6 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent emissions annually,” she said.The researchers published their results in the July 2013 issue of International Journal of Consumer Studies. They recommended washing with water that is at a “comfortable” temperature, which they noted may be warmer in cold months and cooler in hot ones.32. What’s the meaning of what Carrico told National Geographic in the second paragraph?A. People are more concerned about their health and begin to wash their hands.B. It’s important for people to wash their hands to keep healthy.C. Generally, people’s hand washing behaviors and perceptions are not correct.D. People like washing their hands very much.33. The figures in the sixth paragraph are used to show that __________.A. using hot water to wash hands has a bad influence on our planet.B. air pollution has become more and more serious.C. using hot water to wash hands is a waste of energy.D. people should pay more attention to the environment around us.34. This passage is organized in the pattern of __________.A. fact and opinionB. cause and effectC. definition and classificationD. time and events35. What can we learn from the passage?A. It’s necessary and useful for people to wash their hands frequently everyday.B. We can wash our hands with water that is at a “comfortable” temperature.C. Using cold water to wash hands is necessary and much healthier.D. Hot water can’t kill germs.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Mason’s only sells products of one brand n ame.BWeeks have passed since the world lost contact with Malaysia Airlines flightMH370 and its 239 passengers and crew.Although there is little hope of finding any of the passengers and crew alive, China has been making all-out efforts to find what remains of the plane in the southern Indian Ocean, where the plane is believed to have crashed. The search operations involve the navy, the marine police, scientific research and so on. While China's authorities and military forces have passed the test, the search operations have also shown some weaknesses. It is necessary to address these problems because China is a nation that faces many natural disasters.Lack of professional equipment has been the most notable problem. Among all the ships involved in the search for MH370, only Nanhai jiu 115 and Donghai jiu 101 and a few other ships have professional rescue equipment. There are also gaps between China and the US in other technologies such as sea-probing (探测)equipment and telecommunications. China mainly sent transporter planes, which lacked the necessary equipment to probe the ocean. While the United States sent P-3C and P-SA planes and MH60-R helicopters with equipment that can probe to depths of 76 meters and cover 770 sq kilometers in four hours.China's technology clearly needs to be improved. After the plane lost contact on March 8, more than one satellite received signals from it, but there is no report of any of China's satellites receiving a signal.Besides technology, China urgently needs to strengthen its international soft power, because almost all the important information was first obtained by Western media, which put pressure upon the Malaysian government for more timely and accurate information. Chinese media mainly forwarded the news broken by their Western colleagues.Last but not least, more attention should be paid to international cooperation. The search and rescue efforts could well have been a race against time to save lives, but limited by international laws and the absence of cooperation mechanisms, China and some other countries involved did notfully share timely information.4. What is China's most urgent problem to be deal with in rescue work according to the passage?A. Lack of international cooperation.B. Not sharing timely information.C. Lack of professional equipment.D. Too many natural disasters.5. Which of the following shows that China's technology needs improving?A. None of its satellites received any signal after MH370 lost touch.B. Only a few ships have professional rescue equipment.C. The military forces did not find the missing plane.D. Chinese media mainly forwarded the news broken by their Western colleagues.6. What is the best title for this passage?A. MH370, come back home nowB. China makes all-out efforts to find what remains of MH370C. Lessons to be learnt from MH370 searchD. Why the missing MH370 cannot be foundCIt is not a good idea to interrupt the actor Richard Griffiths in the middle of a play. During the past year he has stopped performances at the National Theatre when mobile phones have gone off, and he threw one member of the audience out of a West End play for failing to switch off his phone.So when a mobile rang out for the third time during his performance as Hector, a teacher, in Ala n Bennett’s The History Boys at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York, he spoke angrily: “I am not going to compete with these electronic devices ” .Griffiths’actions led a debate in the UK theatre world over whether phones should be forbidden by law from British theatres, too. Actors are already asking the government to legalise (使合法化) the use of electronic screening (屏蔽) devices to block mobile phone signals from theatres.Technology companies market “blocking” devices that send out a high-powered signal on the same frequency (频率) as a mobile phone, occupying all the available spectrums (频谱).But these are forbidden in many countries because they might prevent emergency calls from being made.Rosemary Squire, president of the Society of West End Theatre and co-founder of the Ambassador Theatre Group, which operates 12 West End theatres, said, “Phones are one of the biggest operational problems theatres face. We should look for equipment that could block phones or make a London-wide theatre rule.”Nick Allott, the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh’s theatre group, said, “We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones, but doctors and emergency workers need to be paged in a theatre and we mustn’t prevent that.”7.

2014-2015学年第一学期高三年级学前考试英语试卷I卷第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

ASome scientists say that animals in the oceans are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings.The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a number of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.Decibels (分贝) measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect.Some scientists have suggested setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in the oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales(鲸鱼).A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that louder noises can seriously injure some animals.The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales' ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected.Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds are against a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists don't think that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.21.According to the passage, natural sounds include all of the following EXCEPT________. A.sounds made by animals themselvesB.ocean drillingC.underwater earthquakesD.the breaking of ice fields22.Which of the following is true of whales?A.They won't be confused by noises.B.They are deaf to noises.C.Their ability to reproduce will be lowered by high­level noises.D.Their hearing will be damaged by high­level noises.23.According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future?A.They will work hard to reduce ocean noise pollution.B.They will protect sea animals from harmful noises.C.They will try to set a limit of 120 decibels.D.They will study the effect of ocean noise pollution.BInternational Book ClubHave you ever thought of joining a book club and buying new booksthrough the post?Here at the International Book Club,we already have many members buying books from us by mail.Immediate benefits:•As a special offer,you may choose any reduced­price books from our new members’ book list,to the value of $6 in total (plus postage and packing).By doing this,you will save pounds on the publishers’ prices.•Tick the box on your form to order a free watch.•If you reply within seven days,we will send you another free gift carefully chosen from our book list by our staff•Order a DVD from the many on offer in our list,at half the recommended retail price.When you’ve joined:As a member,you’ll enjoy savings of between 30% and 50% off the publisher’s price on every book you buy,and what’s more,they’ll come straight to your door.Your free club magazine arrives once a month,to keep you up to date with the latest best­sellers.This means that every year we offer over 1,000 books to choose from.On the Internet,you can find all ou r titles for the year on our exclusive members’ website.Being a member:All we are asking you to do while you are a member is to choose four books during your first year.After that,you can decide on the number of books you wish to take.In each of our monthly club magazines,our experienced staff choose a Club Choice book—a work of fiction or a reference title which they feel is particularly worth buying,and which is offered at an extra­special price.However,if you do not want this book,just say so in the space provided on the form.We will always send the book if we do not receive this.So,return your application form today,but hurry—it’s not every day we can make you an offer like this.To apply to become a member,all you need to do is simply fill in the enc losed form and return it in the postage­paid envelope supplied.Before you know it,your books will be with you.Please don’t send any money now,as we will send you your bill with the books.And remember,you have up to a fortnight to decide if you wish to keep the books you have ordered.You should then either return thebooks or send your payment.24.Which of the following doesn’t belong to the benefits of being a club member?A.Get four books for free in the first year.B.Order a free watch.C.Get a gift for nothing.D.Order a DVD at a low price.25.Every month the club provides a free club magazine in order to________.A.let readers know the number of books to be soldB.keep readers well informed of recent best­selling booksC.make readers know the club’s dev elopmentD.attract more and more readers to join the club26.If a book is worth $100,how much will a member probably save if he buys one?A.$20.

According to the first paragraph,________.A.the function of our brain is like that of the muscleB.until now it’s impossible to explain the brain’s mysteryC.ma ny people believe one’s intelligence is naturally determinedD.one’s brain grows stronger as the age increases29.Training muscles is compared to________.A.using the brainB.connecting things in your brainC.lifting weightsD.doing research about the brain30.What does the underlined word “perspicacious” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Strong. B.Smart.C.Popular. D.Active.31.The following paragraph will most probably talk about________.A.the differences between animals’ brains and humans’ brainsB.the relation between human brains and musclesC.scientists’ findings about animals’ brainsD.how to make your brain smarter through self­developmentDA winter wonderland on the outskirts of Quebec City has become one of Canada's hottest attractions and most sought out accommodations. Guests stay close for warmth in sleeping bagson beds of ice, hats pulled over their ears to prevent frostbite, while sipping cocktails (鸡尾酒) inglasses also made of ice.A cool place to host a memorable wedding or for a romantic getaway, the Quebec Ice Hotelhas attracted 600,000 curious tourists, including 30,000 who stayed overnight, since openingseasonally 11 years ago. Like Victoria and Jeremy Martin, dozens of couples will exchange vows(誓约) this winter in a temporary church next to the hotel, sculpted entirely from blocks of ice withseats covered in furs.Average temperatures fall below minus 20 degrees C (minus four F) in winter, but inside the hotel's36 rooms it is relatively cozy. Thick walls of packed snow and ice act as an insulator, trapping bodyheat inside. Each room is uniquely decorated, using designs created by Quebec architecture students.Two hotel bars also sell special cocktails in ice glasses.First-time guests of the hotel, however, are recommended to stay only one night as sleeping insub-zero temperatures is not very refreshing. This year for the first time the ice hotel has teamed upwith a bricks and concrete Quebec City hotel to offer packages for one-night accommodations ateach. Prices for one night only at the ice hotel start at 200 US dollars per person.The 3,000-square-metre (32,300-square-feet) buildings take six weeks starting in December tobuild, using 15,000 tonnes of snow and 500 tonnes of ice, at a cost of some 750,000 US dollars.Eleven weeks after its seasonal grand opening, the hotel will close on March 27 and then melt awaywith the arrival of spring.32. What is true with the ice hotel?A. 630,000 people have visited it.B. 30,000 people visit it each year.C. It has stayed open for many years.D. Wedding ceremonies are often held there.33. What can we learn about the hotel rooms?A. It can be -20°C inside.B. The temperature is always below 0°C.C. The rooms all look alike.D. Each room costs $200 per night.34. First-time guests are advised to stay there only one night because _____.A. they may not be able to stand the coldB. their other night is with an ordinary hotelC. new guests have less advantages over old onesD. the first-day service is just for a test run35. If you choose to visit the ice hotel during the Christmas season, you'll find _____.A. it doesn't exist at allB. it is just being builtC. most of its rooms are vacantD. it is crowded with guests第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从所给选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

The search operations involve the navy, the marine police, scientific research and so on. While China's authorities and military forces have passed the test, the search operations have also shown some weaknesses. It is necessary to address these problems because China is a nation that faces many natural disasters.Lack of professional equipment has been the most notable problem. Among all the ships involved in the search for MH370, only Nanhai jiu 115 and Donghai jiu 101 and a few other ships have professional rescue equipment. There are also gaps between China and the US in other technologies such as sea-probing (探测)equipment and telecommunications. China mainly sent transporter planes, which lacked the necessary equipment to probe the ocean. While the United States sent P-3C and P-SA planes and MH60-R helicopters with equipment that can probe to depths of 76 meters and cover 770 sq kilometers in four hours.China's technology clearly needs to be improved. After the plane lost contact on March 8, more than one satellite received signals from it, but there is no report of any of China's satellites receiving a signal.Besides technology, China urgently needs to strengthen its international soft power, because almost all the important information was first obtained by Western media, which put pressure upon t he Malaysian government for more timely and accurate information. Chinese media mainl y forwarded the news broken by their Western colleagues.Last but not least, more attention should be paid to international cooperation. The search and rescue efforts could well have been a race against time to save lives, but limited by international laws and the absence of cooperation mechanisms, China and some other countries involved did not fully share timely information.4. What is China's most urgent problem to be deal with in rescue work according to the passage?A. Lack of international cooperation.B. Not sharing timely information.C. Lack of professional equipment.D. Too many natural disasters.5. Which of the following shows that China's technology needs improving?A. None of its satellites received any signal after MH370 lost touch.B. Only a few ships have professional rescue equipment.C. The military forces did not find the missing plane.D. Chinese media mainly forwarded the news broken by their Western colleagues.6. What is the best title for this passage?A. MH370, come back home nowB. China makes all-out efforts to find what remains of MH370C. Lessons to be learnt from MH370 searchD. Why the missing MH370 cannot be foundCIt is not a good idea to interrupt the actor Richard Griffiths in the middle of a play. During the past year he has stopped performances at the National Theatre when mobile phones have gone off, and he threw one member of the audience out of a West End play for failing to switch off his phone.So when a mobile rang out for the third time during his performance as Hector, a teacher, in A lan Bennett’s The History Boys at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York, he spoke angrily: “I am not going to compete with these electronic devices ” .Griffiths’actions led a debate in the UK theatre world over whether phones should be forbidden by law from British theatres, too. Actors are already asking the government to legalise (使合法化) the use of electronic screening (屏蔽) devices to block mobile phone signals from theatres.Technology companies market “blocking” devices that send out a high-powered signal on the same frequency (频率) as a mobile phone, occupying all the available spectrums (频谱).But these are forbidden in many countries because they might prevent emergency callsfrom being made.Rosemary Squire, president of the Society of West End Theatre and co-founder of the Ambassador Theatre Group, which operates 12 West End theatres, said, “Phones are one of the biggest operational problems theatres face. We should look for equipment that could block phones or make a London-wide theatre rule.”Nick Allot t, the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh’s theatre group, said, “We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones, but doctors and emergency workers need to be paged in a theatre and we mustn’t prevent that.”7. The first two paragraphs are written to __ .A. tell us why Griffiths was angryB. blame Griffiths for his bad behaviorC. introduce the topic the passage will talk aboutD. advise us to turn off the mobile phones in public places8. According to the passage, “blocking” device s __ .A. have the same functions as mobile phonesB. prevent the mobile phones being used properlyC. cause the biggest problem theatres have to faceD. help make emergency calls9. The underlined word “paged” in the last paragraph can be replaced by________.A. preventedB. protectedC.forbiddenD. called10. What will probably be talked about following the last paragraph?A. The opinions the public have about the problem.B. The ways to solve the problem the public places face.C. G riffiths’next performance in theatre s.D.

AOur house was directly across the street from the clinic entrance of John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to the patients at the clinic.One evening as I was fixing supper, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly awful-looking man. He’s hardly taller than my eight-year-old son. “Good evening. I’ve come to see if you’ve a room. I came for a treatment this morning from the eastern shore, and there’s no bus till morning.” He told me he’d been hunting for a room since noon but with no success. “I guess it’s my face (I)kn ow it looks terrible, but my doctor says with a few more treatments…” For a moment I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: “I could sleep in this chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning.”I told him we would find him a bed. When I had finished the dishes, I talked with him. He told me he fished for a living to support his five children, and his wife, who was hopelessly crippled (残疾的) from a back injury. He didn’t tell it by way of complaint. Next morning, just before he left, as if asking a great favor, he said, “Could I come back and stay the next time?” He added, “Your children made me feel at home.”On his next trip he arrived a little after seven in the morning. As a gift, he brought a big fish and the largest oysters (牡蛎) I had ever seen. I knew his busleft at 4:00 a.m. and I wondered what time he had to get up in order to do this forus.In the years he came to stay overnight with us and there was never a time thathe did not bring us vegetables from his garden. I know our family always will begrateful to have known him; from him we learned how to accept the bad without complaint when facing the misfortune.21.Why did the author agree to let the man spend the night in his house at last?A.

Fourth grade was tough, and they were working on a science project about weather. Lindsay was a hard worker like Erica, so the t wo girls were happy to have each otheras partners. They were writing about rain and were amazed to learn that Hawaii is the world’s wettest place. Lindsay found that Mount Waial eale, on the island of Kauai, gets about 460 inches of rain a year! In 1982, Mount Waialeale set an all-time world record when it received 666 inches of rain! The girls knew that their classmates would find all these facts interesting.The girls were enjoying the fun facts they were finding when all of a sudden, Lindsay saw Erica choking. Erica had been chewing on a pen cap and had accidentally swallowed it! Erica started pointing to her neck. Lindsay asked her if she was choking. When Erica nodded to say yes, Lindsay quickly stood up and did the Heimlich maneuver (策略) to try to help Erica stop choking.Lindsay was afraid of hurting her friend, so the first time she tried the Heimlich maneuver, she did not do it very hard. She tried a second time, and nothing happened. After trying it a third time, the pen cap flew out of Erica’ mouth!Erica was very grateful to Lindsay.

Themap, developed by the Beijing Cyberspace Administration and the Beijing Commission of Tourism Development, monitors four popular scenic spots across the capital - the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace and Olympic Forest Park. People who want to visit the sites can see which parking lots have spaces free, and how crowded the venues are.The map, at present available only in Chinese, has been designed by Sogou Inc, the Chinese search engine owned by Inc, and will be expanded to cover more sites across China. There are also plans to turn it into an app for smartphones. "If there are traffic jams around these tourism destinations, roads on the map will turn red, and if visitors want to drive to the places, the map will provide every parking area in and near the spots and show a real-time monitor of empty parking lots at the same time," said Kong Xianglai, the designer and producer of the map from Sogou. To make the information as clear and simple as possible, some buildings and streets around the sites have been removed from the map if they are not necessary, Kong said. "Users will also see peaks in visitor numbers and where crowds are at these destinations on the map, so it is helpful for them to plan and select a travel time," he said.25. The online map is especially helpful for those who want to visit ______.A. Qinghai LakeB. the Great WallC. the Yellow Grane TowerD. the Summer Palace26. What can visitors learn from the online map?A. How crowded the streets in Shanghai are .B. Which parking lots in and near Olympic Forest Park are empty.C. Whether there are traffic jams in 50 top tourist spots across the country.D.

Complex28.The text is most likely to be taken from_______.A. A science textbookB. A museum guideC. A study reportD. A news reportCA cookie can give one person a sugar rush while barely affecting another person, a new study finds, indicating that a food’s glycemic index(血糖指数)is in the eater.People’s blo od sugar rises or falls differently even when they eat the exact same fruit, bread, deserts, pizza and many other foods, researchers report. That suggests that diets should be tailored to individuals’ personal characteristics.The researchers made the discovery after fitting 800 people with blood glucose (血糖)monitors for a week. The people ate standard breakfasts supplied by the researchers. Although the volunteers all ate the same food, their blood glucose levels after eating those foods varied dramatically. Characteristics and behaviors such as body mass index, sleep, exercise, blood pressure, cholesterol levels and the kinds of microbes(微生物)living in people’s intestines are associated with blood glucose responses to food, the researchers conclude.Those findings indicate that blood sugar spikes (血糖尖峰)after eating depend not only on what you eat, but how your system processes that food.A team led by a biologist created a computer algorithm(计算程序) that predic ted how much a person’s blood sugar wou ld rise or fall after eating a certain food. When testing on a new group of 100 people, the algorithm correctly predicted the response about 70 percent of the time.A third group of 26 participants were then given personalized meals. The computer algorithm analyzed each person and then picked diets for 12 of them. A nutritionist chose a “good” and “bad” diet for the remaining participants. Good diets were ones that minimized blood sugar spikes after eating. Bad diets sent blood sugar skyrocketing. The diets contained the same amount of calories. It turned out that foods on the “good” diet for one person were sometimes on another participant’s “bad” list.29. A food’s glycemic index depends on ______.A. dietsB. sleepC. healthD. eaters30. Wh ich of the following can best replace the underlined word “tailored” inParagraph 2?A. limitedB. adjustedC. appliedD. compared31. The good diets chosen by a nutritionist were the ones that _______ after eating.A. made blood sugar unchangedB. sent blood sugar rising sharplyC. reduced blood sugar spikes to the lowestD. provided body with lots of calories32. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. People’s Blood Sugar Rises Or FallsB. A Good Diet for You May be Bad for MeC. Diets And Blood SugarD.

2017学年第一学期高三年级学前考试英语试卷I卷第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

ASome scientists say that animals in the oceans are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings.The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a number of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.Decibels (分贝) measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect. Some scientists have suggested setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in the oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales(鲸鱼).A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that louder noises can seriously injure some animals.The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales' ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected.Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds are against a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists don't think that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean. 21.According to the passage, natural sounds include all of the following EXCEPT________.A.sounds made by animals themselvesB.ocean drillingC.underwater earthquakesD.the breaking of ice fields22.Which of the following is true of whales?A.They won't be confused by noises.B.They are deaf to noises.C.Their ability to reproduce will be lowered by high­level noises.D.Their hearing will be damaged by high­level noises. 23.According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future?A.They will work hard to reduce ocean noise pollution. B.They will protect sea animals from harmful noises. C.They will try to set a limit of 120 decibels.D.They will study the effect of ocean noise pollution.BInternational Book ClubHave you ever thought of joining a book cluband buying new books through the post?Here at the International Book Club,we already have many members buying books from us by mail.Immediate benefits:•As a special offer,you may choose anyreduced­price books from our new members’ booklist,to the value of $6 in total (plus postage and packing).By doing this,you will save pounds on the publishers’ prices.•Tick the box on your form to order a free watch.•If you reply within seven days,we will send you anotherfree gift carefully chosen from our book list by our staff •Order a DVD from the many on offer in our list,at half the recommended retail price.When you’ve joined:As a member,you’ll enjoy savings of between 30% and 50% off the publisher’s price on every book you buy,and what’s more,they’ll come straight to your door.Your free club magazine arrives once a month,to keep you up to date with the latest best­sellers.This means that every year we offer over 1,000 books to choose from.On the Internet,you can find all our titles for the year on our exclusive members’ website.Being a member:All we are asking you to do while you are a member is to choose four books during your first year.After that,you can decide on the number of books you wish to take.In each of our monthly club magazines,our experienced staff choose a Club Choice book—a work of fiction or a reference title which they feel is particularly worth buying,and which is offered at an extra­special price.However,if you do not want this book,just say so in the space provided on the form.We will always send the book if we do not receive this.So,return your application form today,but hurry—it’s not every day we can make you an offer like this.To apply to become a member,all you need to do is simply fill in theenclosed form and return it in the postage­paid envelope supplied.Before you know it,your books will be with you.Please don’t send any money now,as we will send you your bill with the books.And remember,you have up to a fortnight to decide if you wish to keep the books you have ordered.You should then either return the books or send your payment.24.Which of the following doesn’t belong to the benefits of being a club member?A.Get four books for free in the first year.B.Order a free watch.C.Get a gift for nothing.D.Order a DVD at a low price.25.Every month the club provides a free club magazine in order to________.A.let readers know the number of books to be soldB.keep readers well informed of recent best­selling books C.make readers know the club’s developmentD.attract more and more readers to join the club26.If a book is worth $100,how much will a member probably save if he buys one?A.$20.

According to the first paragraph,________.A.the function of our brain is like that of the muscle B.until now it’s impossible to explain the brain’s mystery C.many people believe one’s intelligence is naturally determinedD.one’s brain grows stronger as the age increases29.Training muscles is compared to________.A.using the brainB.connecting things in your brainC.lifting weightsD.doing research about the brain30.What does the underlined word “perspicacious” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Strong. B.Smart.C.Popular. D.Active.31.The following paragraph will most probably talk about________.A.the differences between animals’ brains and humans’brainsB.the relation between human brains and musclesC.scientists’ findings about animals’ brainsD.how to make your brain smarter through self­developmentDA winter wonderland on the outskirts of Quebec City has become one of Canada's hottestattractions and most sought out accommodations. Guests stay close for warmth in sleeping bagson beds of ice, hats pulled over their ears to prevent frostbite, while sipping cocktails (鸡尾酒) inglasses also made of ice.A cool place to host a memorable wedding or for a romantic getaway, the Quebec Ice Hotelhas attracted 600,000 curious tourists, including 30,000 who stayed overnight, since openingseasonally 11 years ago. Like Victoria and Jeremy Martin, dozens of couples will exchange vows(誓约) this winter in a temporary church next to the hotel, sculpted entirely from blocks of ice withseats covered in furs.Average temperatures fall below minus 20 degrees C (minus four F) in winter, but inside the hotel's36 rooms it is relatively cozy. Thick walls of packed snow and ice act as an insulator, trapping bodyheat inside. Each room is uniquely decorated, using designs created by Quebec architecture students.Two hotel bars also sell special cocktails in ice glasses.First-time guests of the hotel, however, are recommended to stay only one night as sleeping insub-zero temperatures is not very refreshing. This year for the first time the ice hotel has teamed upwith a bricks and concrete Quebec City hotel to offer packages for one-night accommodations ateach. Prices for one night only at the ice hotel start at 200 US dollars per person.The 3,000-square-metre (32,300-square-feet) buildings take six weeks starting in December tobuild, using 15,000 tonnes of snow and 500 tonnes of ice, at a cost of some 750,000 US dollars.Eleven weeks after its seasonal grand opening, the hotel will close on March 27 and then melt awaywith the arrival of spring.32. What is true with the ice hotel?A. 630,000 people have visited it.B. 30,000 people visit it each year.C. It has stayed open for many years.D. Wedding ceremonies are often held there.33. What can we learn about the hotel rooms?A. It can be -20°C inside.B. The temperature is always below 0°C.C. The rooms all look alike.D. Each room costs $200 per night.34.
