福建高二高中英语期中考试带答案解析

福建高二高中英语期中考试班级:___________ 姓名:___________ 分数:___________一、阅读理解1.Weekends mean hanging out, snacking or just watching horror movies. So look over our picks of some scariest ones.The ExorcistThis 1973 classic, adapted from the 1971 book of the same name, tell the story of a 12-year-old girl named Regan McNeil who gets possessed by the devil (恶魔) after using a Ouija board to communicate with her imaginary friend Captain Howdy. It was inspired by a true story. Novelist William Peter Blatty adapted his book from the tale of Roland Doe, a young boy in Cottage City, Maryland who underwent an exorcism (驱魔) in 1949. The WitchRobert Eggers’s first build at a slow pace then you’ll either totally love o r hate with a passion. The story is about a Puritan family who runs out of town due to the father’s pride, then sets up a home in a remote of the woods all by themselves. As the atmosphere builds and the family starts to fall apart, accusing each other of being witches. The BabadookThe Babadook focuses on a recently widowed mom of a six-year-old named Samuel who, after reading a pop-up book about a ghoul (食尸鬼) wearing top hat named Mister Babadook, spends the rest of the movie screaming bloody murder and attempting to convince his mom that the Babadook is real.Paranormal ActivityEvery moment of this movie plays upon the viewers’ fears: people staring at you while you sleep; the person you love being secretly killed; and actual devils in your actual house. Filming in such a way makes it seem like real life, or at least real life presented via a home movie, and leaves you fearing the nighttime scenes, for obvious reasons.【1】What’s the name of the leading role of The Exorcist?A.Regan McNeiL.B.Captain Howdy.C.Roland Doe.D.William Peter Blatty.【2】Babadook is the name of ______.A.a novelist B.a bookC.a devil D.a ghoul【3】What’s one of the characteristics of Paranormal Activity?A.Filming the movie in a wild setting.B.Making people die of illness secretly.C.Making the movie scenes feel real.D.Keeping audiences smiling at the scenes.【4】What’s the topic of the films?A.Love.B.Horror.C.Crime.D.War.2.Chuck Berry, the man often called the “father of rock and roll” is still performing at 85. Another music great, Smokey Robinson, has described Chuck Berry as “the inspiration for all of today’s rock 'n' roll guitarists." And, Anthony Kiedis calls him “a musical scientist who discovered a cure for the blues.”On stage, he became known for his wild performances, and his “duck walk” that many musicians copied. But his songwriting skills—some call him a rock and roll poet—and his guitar work really set him apart. Early in his career he played mostly blues for black audiences in clubs in St. Louis, Missouri. But the most popular music in the area was country. So this musical scientist mixed country and blues.Chuck Berry was born on October 18th, 1926, in St. Louis, where he still lives. His mother, Martha, was a high school principal. He was born the fourth of six children. He started singing in church when he was six years old. His interest in music stuck with him.A lot of Chuck Berry's material is about teenage life, especially school. Chuck Berry and two friends were arrested after they used a gun to steal a car. He was released from prison four years later. But that would not be the last of his legal problems over the years.Filmmaker Taylor Hackford made a d ocumentary called “Hail! Hail! Rock ‘n’ Roll,” named for a Chuck Berry song. It centered on the making of a concert to honor the musician on his sixtieth birthday in 1986. More than seventy-five artists and bands have done their own versions of Chuck Berry songs. Many have done several, including the Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley, Conway Twitty and Bruce Springsteen.【1】Which of the following makes Chuck Berry different from other musicians?A.Wild performance and duck walk.B.skills of creating songs and guitar workC.Duck walk and skills of creating songs.D.Guitar work and wild performance.【2】According to the text, Chuck Berry ________.A.was influenced by the education of his motherB.wrote most of his songs that reflected his teenage lifeC.show his musical talent at an early ageD.didn’t have legal problems after he became a successful musician【3】What can we learn from the text?A.Chuck Berry had a lot of music used in filmmaking.B.Chuck Berry is also interested in performing in movies.C.Chuck Berry had a concert to celebrate his sixtieth birthday.D.Chuck Berry has a great influence on many musicians.3.Five meteorologists (气象学家) who were trapped for two weeks after polar bears surrounded their weather station are now able to leave after the creatures were chased away. Their supervisor told NBC News early Wednesday.Russian officials had feared the siege could last for another month, the time it would take to reach the islands in the Kara Sea, high in the Arctic Circle. But on Tuesday night a research ship took a detour (绕道) to assist those weathermen, station supervisor Vasily Shevchenko told NBC News. The ship run by Russia’s state-run oil firm Rosneft frightened away the bears using its helicopter, before resupplying the weather station with more food and puppies (幼犬). The puppies are not yet big enough to deter the bears, but the station is planning to draft in a replacement adult guard dog as soon as possible.Some of the bears had taken to sleeping directly outside the windows of remote outpost. There was no risk of the researchers starving because they had a year’s worth of food, but they were forced to take dangerous trips to a nearby building, holding a gun for protection, according to Shevchenko.Polar bears are an endangered species. In Russia, it’s a crime to shoot them unless in self-defense. The bears usually leave the islands in the summer, but this time they were trapped by the melting ice, an apparent sign of clim ate change, according to Shevchenko. “They’ve stayed on the island because there is nowhere for them to go,” he said.The animals suffer from global warming because it shrinks the floating ice that forms their main hunting ground. According to the environmental group the World Wide Fund for Nature, known as the WWF, this has got some polar bears to go near human habitats in search of food.【1】What did the research ship do to help the five meteorologists?A.Drive them home.B.Shoot all the bears.C.Use its helicopter to scare the bears away.D.Supply the weather station with more money.【2】The underlined Word “deter” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to “______”.A.stop B.respectC.protect D.raise【3】What made the bears trapped on the island according to the text?A.Sea Pollution.B.Climate change.C.Humans’ hunting.D.Animals’ hunting【4】What can we infer from the text?A.People in Russia can hunt bear for money.B.The melting ice will kill all the polar bears.C.The five meteorologists hated the bears very much.D.WWF made some contributions to protecting polar bears.4.Roller coasters are fast and exciting. But passing a painful kidney (肾) stones is not. The process is painful and can take a long time. But American researchers have found that a roller coaster ride just might help those suffering from a kidney stone. They say such rides help patients pass the stones with a 70 percent success rate. David Wartinger led the study. He found that where the person sits on the roller coaster can make a big difference. He said, “In the pilot study, sitting in the last car of the roller coaster showed about a 64 percent passage rate. Sitting in the first few cars only ha d a 16 percent success rate.”It also mattered where the stones were located in the kidney. The researchers found that stones located in the upper part of the kidney model were passed 100 percent.When it comes to passing kidney stones, not all roller coasters are equal. The researchers used 174 kidney stones of differing shapes, sizes and weights to see if each model worked on the same ride and on two other roller coasters. They found that Big Thunder Mountain was the only one that worked. The other two roller coasters both failed the test. Wartinger said the other rides were too fast and too violent. The movement forced the stones against the side of the kidney. He said that the ideal roller coaster is rough and quick with some twists and turns.Wartinger thinks roller coaster rides could also be used as a preventative measure. He said that a yearly ride on a roller coaster could even prevent stones from developing. “You need to heed the warnings before going on a roller coaster,” he said. “If you have a ki dney stone, but are otherwise healthy and meet the requirements of the ride, patients should try it.”He adds that it’s definitely a lower cost alternative to other treatments. And riding a roller coaster is definitely more fun!【1】According to the text, passing kidney stone is ______.A.fast B.excitingC.interesting D.painful【2】Which of the following benefits people with a kidney stone most?A.Sitting in the first car of a roller coaster.B.Sitting in the middle car of a roller coaster.C.Sitting in big roller coasters with doctors’ care.D.Sitting in rough and fast roller coasters with twists and turns.【3】What’s Wartinger’s attitude to riding roller coasters for people having a kidney stone?A.Worried.B.Negative.C.Supportive.D.Skeptical.【4】What would be the best title for the text?A.Some treatments of kidney stonesB.Advantages of riding roller coastersC.Roller coasters can help pass kidney stonesD.Kidney stones can be cured by riding roller coasters二、其他Knowing how and when to say goodbye is often difficult, even in informal situations. 【1】 It will help you maintain your relationships and let people know you care. It’s also easier than it seems sometimes. Read on to learn how to recognize opportunities and predict others’ needs when you leave.Recognize when to leave. When you’re at any kind of party, or even a one-on-one conversation,it can be difficult to get away. Learning to recognize good opportunities to leave will make a goodbye much easier.【2】 If more than half the people have left, it might be a good time to leave.【3】 Overstayi ng your welcome is rude, but it can often be difficult to distinguish. People don’t like telling you that they’d like you to leave,so try to watch for signals. This may be some other family members starting to check their watch or even pack up or the fact that there is hardly anyone left.Make plans to see each other again. Saying, “See you at school tomorrow” or “Can’t wait to see you again at Christmas” keeps the goodbye light and focused forward. If you haven’t already made plans, use it as an opportunity to make them.【4】Tell the truth. It can be tempting to come up with a “good excuse” when you’re ready to leave.

Memory, they say,is a matter of practice and exercise. If you have the wish and really make a conscious (有意识的)effort,then you can quite easily improve your ability to remember things. But even if you are successful,there are times when your memory seems to play tricks on you.Sometimes you remember things that really did not happen. One morning last week,for example,I got up and found that I had left the front door unlocked all night,yet I clearly remembered locking it carefully the night before.Memory “tricks” work the other way as well. Once in a while you remember not doing something and then find out that you did. One day last month,for example,I was sitting in a barbershop(理发店)waiting for my turn to get a haircut,and suddenly I realized that I had got a haircut two days before at the barbershop across the street from my office.We always seem to find something funny and interesting in incidents(事件)caused by people’s forgetfulness or absent-mindedness. Stories about absent-minded professors have been told for years. Unfortunately,however,absent-mindedness is not always funny. There are times when “tricks”of our memory can cause us great trouble.【1】If you want to have a good memory, _____.A.you should ask someone else to help you to remember thingsB.you should make a conscious effort to practice and exerciseC.you should never stop learningD.you should try hard to remember things【2】In the passage,the writer seems to tell us _____.A.forgetting things is serious and dangerousB.always forgetting things is understandableC.forgetting things at times is naturalD.the ways to protect yourself from memory “tricks”【3】The best title for this passage is“_____”.A.How to Get a Good MemoryB.Tricks of MemoryC.The Danger of Forgetfulness and Absent-mindednessD.Get Rid of Absent-mindedness2.Everyone wants to achieve true happiness in life.But the biggest factor holding most of us back is actually our ownselves.The Huffington Post released a list of seven mistakes we need to let go of in order to become happier people.Let’s take a look.1.Placing too much emphasis on fulfillment (成就感)Those who put a lot of pressure on themselves to be happy feel more lonely on a daily basis than those who do not,according to research conducted at the University of Denver,US.2.Keeping it all inKeeping it all together during tough times can hurt you.Crying is the body’s emotional response to outside triggers (诱因).By suppressing it,you may be damaging your mental and physical health.3.Looking at your smartphone all the timeConnecting with others may be the key to happiness,but a recent University of Michigan study found that the more time participants spent on social networking sites,the less happy they felt.4.Not movingIt’s no secret that a healthy lifestyle is a big part of happiness.Something as simple as a walk can help you increase your creativity and expose you to essential vitamins.5.Not reflecting on the pastIn a 2013 study on nostalgia (怀旧) and emotion,participants reported a higher sense of physiological comfort when they looked back on the past.Affection for heartwarming memories helps people relate their past experiences to the present in order to create a greater sense of meaning.6.Resisting changeA study on the psychology of choices shows that the human brain naturally tries to avoid loss—but that resistance can cause stress.Whether it’s fear of the unknown or fear of losing what you currently have,the pressure to hold on to the present can harm your future life satisfaction.7.Not being mindfulSetting aside time for meditation (沉思) allows your body to relax,cultivates an attitude of gratitude and lowers your stress level,according to researchers at University of California,Los Angeles,US.【1】What is the main purpose of the article?A.To inform readers of the benefits of being happy.B.To explain why our happiness depends on our own actions.C.To point out the things we do that prevent us from being happy.D.To discuss some typical characteristics of happy people.【2】The underlined word “suppressing” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to .A.speaking of B.holding backC.thinking about D.taking no notice of【3】According to the article,to be a happy person,it is important for us to .A.set goals and achieve as much as we canB.avoid recalling the pastC.do exercise in our spare timeD.spend more time on social networking sites【4】According to the article,meditation is helpful mainly because .A.it increases our creativityB.it makes us less afraid of the unknownC.it helps us relax and thus reduce our stressD.it allows us to relate our past experiences to the present3.Apple a day may poison childrenChildren who eat an apple or pear a day may be exceeding(超过) the pesticide(杀虫剂) safety limit because of remains on the fruit,according to research.Using data of the British Department of Environment on pesticides on fruit collected from supermarkets,scientists thought that each day some children would get a poisonous level of pesticides.The research,published on Sunday,says the government repeatedly claims that the levels of pesticide are safe because,instead of measuring individual apples, researchers buy 10,crush them and take an average reading to see if they are safe. This is the internationally agreed method of checking remains.But government figures show that the pesticide is not averagely spread across the batch(一批),and one or two apples could contain 90% or more of the pesticide in the batch.It used mathematical modeling to measure exposure(暴露) to pesticides for children aged between 18 months and four years old. The pesticides involved can destroy children’s hormones and some are suspected(怀疑) of causing cancer.The good news for British fruit growers is that samples grown in this country had lower residue level than imported fruit,so buying home-produced fruit will reduce the danger,said Emily Diamand,one of the Earth’s senior food researchers and one of the authors of the report.【1】The reason why “Apple a day may poison children” is that ______.A.there are some pests in the appleB.children would get a poisonous level of pesticides because of the remains on the appleC.there are always more pesticides on the apples produced in BritainD.the apple is too hard for children to eat【2】The internationally agreed method of checking remains is to buy ______.A.two apples,crush them and take an average reading to see if they are safeB.five apples,crush them and test to see if they are safeC.ten apples,crush them and take an average reading to see if they are safeD.eighty apples,and then test them by crushing【3】The underlined word “residue” can be replaced by ______.A.remains B.pesticideC.poison D.medicine【4】 Which of the following is NOT true?A.The remains of the pesticides can do harm to the children’s health.B.The remains of the pesticides can do harm to the children’s hormones.C.Some remains of the pesticides are suspected of causing cancer.D.For safety,we had better not import apples from Britain.4.We often think of future. We often wonder what the world would be like in a hundred years’time.Think of space,perhaps a permanent(永久的) station on the moon will have been set up. Perhaps people will be able to visit the moon as tourists. Cheap rockets for space travel will have been developed,permitting long journeys throughout the solar system(太阳系). When that time comes,people will be taking holidays in space and visiting other planets. Great progress will have been made in medicine,too. Perhaps a cure will have been discovered for the most terrible of all diseases—cancer. Pollution is a problem we must solve. In a hundred years’time it will have been controlled.All the world will have been developed — even Antarctica. There will be large cities in Antarctica. We already have supersonic(超音速的) flight,but in a hundred years’time we will have supersonic land travel as well.We will have used up most of earth’s land to build our cities, so floating cities will have been built. The Japanese already have plans for cities of this kind. And there will be cities under the sea. The first of these willhave been completed.【1】We will have developed ______ in a hundred years’time,permitting long journeys all over the solar system.A.cheap rockets for space travel B.a planeC.a spaceship D.a satellite【2】Man will also have supersonic land travel ______.A.in a year B.about half a century laterC.in the year 2050D.about a century later【3】The last paragraph mainly talks about ______.A.we’ll make good use of space on the earthB.cities under the seaC.Japan will first build floating citiesD.earth’s land is in danger【4】 The best title for the passage is ______.A.Travel in the Future B.Future LifeC.Where to Live in the Future D.Space Travel5.London UndergroundThe world’s first subway was built in London in 1863. At the time,the government was looking for a way to reduce traffic problems in the city of London. The poor areas of the city were so crowded with people that it was almost impossible for horse carriages to get through. The city officials were interested in trying to make it possible for workers to live outside of London and travel easily to work each day. If people had a cheap and convenient way that they could depend on to go to and from work, they would relocate their homes outside of the city. This would help ease(减轻) the pressure of too many people living in the poor parts of London. From these problems,the idea of the London Underground,the first subway system,was born.The plans for building the Underground met with several problems and delays, but the fast track was finally opened in January 1863. A steam train pulled the cars along the fast underground track which was 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) long. About 30,000 people got on the subway the first day. Riders were treated to comfortable seats (standing up while the train was moving was not allowed),and pleasant decorations inside each of the cars. However,the smoke from the engine soon filled the air in the tunnels with ash and soot(煤灰),as well as chemical gases. Fans had to be put in the tunnels later to keep the air clean enough for people to breathe. Even with its problems,riding in the Underground did catch on. It carried 9 million riders in its first year.【1】What led the British government to build the London Underground?A.Traffic jams and pollution.B.Population and pollution.C.Overcrowding and traffic jams.D.The poverty and subway problems.【2】How did the London Underground solve the smoke problem?A.It made the tunnels larger.B.It put fans in the tunnels.C.It cleaned the chemical gases in the tunnels.D.It reduced the number of passengers riding in the train.【3】The underlined phrase “catch on” most probably means “______”.A.be troublesomeB.become popular and fashionableC.keep up withD.seize【4】Which of the following is TRUE?A.To relocate the workers’homes outside London,the government built the subway.B.There were so many problems and delays that in 18th century the first subway opened.C.The subway greatly eased the pressure of traffic.D.There were not enough seats for the passengers the first day the subway opened.【5】It seems that the writer is going to talk about ______in the next paragraph.A.more problems with subwaysB.subways around the world later onC.the history and culture of LondonD.the Beijing subway四、其他1.根据下列各题所给的短语翻译句子,并在答题卡上各题横线中写出该句子的正确英文形式。

Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our 36 , and especially if it’s given from the 37 . When people are talking, there’s no need to do anything but 38 them. Just take them 39 . Listen to what they’re saying. Care about it. Most times caring about it is even more important than 40 it.One of my patients told me that when she 41 to tell her story, people often 42 to tell her that they had once had something just like what happened to her. Subtly, her pain became a story about themselves. 43 she stopped talking to most people. It was just too 44 . We connect through listening. When we interrupt what someone is saying to let them know that we understand, we move the 45 of attention to ourselves. But when we listen, they know we care.I have ever learned to 46 to someone crying by just listening. In the old days I used to reach for the tissues(纸巾) 47 I realized that passing a person a tissue may be just another way to shut them 48 , to take them out of their 49 of sadness and pain. Now I just listen. When they have cried all they need to cry, they find methere 50 them.This 51 thing has not been that easy to learn. It certainly went against everything I had been 52 since I was very young at school. I thought people listened only because they were too 53 to speak or did not know the answer. A loving silence often has far more 54 to connect than the most well-intentioned(善意的) 55 .【1】A.introduction B.instruction C.attention D.relaxation【2】A.head B.memory C.mind D.heart【3】A.talk to B.listen to C.object to(反对)D.stick to(坚持)【4】A.in B.up C.off D.away【5】A.denying(否认)B.remembering C.questioning D.understanding 【6】A.managed B.tried C.hoped D.expected【7】A.encouraged B.interrupted C.discouraged D.urged【8】A.Eventually B.Immediately C.Completely D.Especially【9】A.impolite B.meaningless C.lonely D.selfish 【10】A.middle B.focus C.center D.choice 【11】A.respond B.compare C.link D.regret 【12】A.unless B.if C.until D.when 【13】A.down B.away C.in D.off【14】A.experiment B.mixture C.judgment D.experience 【15】A.with B.against C.for D.among【16】A.complex(费解的)B.simple C.single D.complicated(复杂的)【17】A.mentioned B.published C.taught D.proved 【18】A.shy B.greedy C.active D.proud 【19】A.strength B.energy C.power D.force 【20】A.gestures B.praise C.criticism D.words三、阅读理解1.I left university with a good degree in English Literature, but no sense of what I wanted to do. Over the next six years, I was treading water, just trying to earn an income. I tried journalism, but I didn’t think I was any good, then finance, which I hated. Finally, I got a job as a rights assistant at a famous publisher. I loved working with books, although the job that I did was dull.I had enough savings to take a year off work, and I decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55,000 words.It takes confidence to make a new start—there’s a d ark period in-between where you’re neither one thing nor the other. You’re out for dinner and people ask what you do, and you’re too ashamed to say, “Well, I’m writing a novel, but I’m not quite sure if I’m going to get there.” My confidence dived. Believi ng my novel could not be published, I put it aside.Then I met an agent(代理商) who said I should send my novel out to agents. So, I did and, to my surprise, got some wonderful feedback. I felt a little hope that I might actually become a published writer and, after signing with an agent, I finished the second half of the novel.The next problem was finding a publisher. After two-and-a-half years of no income, just waiting and wondering, a publisher offered me a book deal—that publisher turned out to be the one I once worked for.It feels like an unbelievable stroke of luck—of fate, really. When you set out to do something different, there’s no end in sight, so to find myself in a position where I now have my own name on a contract(合同)of the publisher—to be a published writer—is unbelievably rewarding(有回报的).【1】What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?A.I was waiting for good fortune.B.I was trying to find an admirable job.C.I was being aimless about a suitable job.D.I was doing several jobs for more pay at a time.【2】The author decided to write a novel .A.to finish the writing course B.to realize her own dreamC.to satisfy readers’ wish D.to earn more money【3】How did the writer feel halfway with the novel?A.Disturbed.B.Ashamed.C.Confident.D.Uncertain.【4】What does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph?A.It pays to stick to one’s goal.B.Hard work can lead to success.C.She feels like being unexpectedly lucky.D.There is no end in sight when starting to do something.2.Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys?The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences. To the Egyptians, green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring, while for Muslims, it means heaven. Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. In China, children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils(灾祸).People’s choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies’ reactions(反应) toward them. Green is said to be the most restful color. It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically. People who work in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches.Red can cause a person’s blood pressure to rise and increase people’s appetites(食欲). Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant. Similarly, many commercial websites will have a red “Buy Now” button because red is a color that easily catches a person’s eye.Blue is another calming color.

The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone’s winter.” And their report cards sounde d more positive(正面的) than ever before. As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years.Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work:A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent(才能) is genetic—you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to s ucceed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learningmake everything possible. Because the ego(自尊) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain thisin depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.【1】What does the author think about the present generation?A.They don’t do well at school.B.They are often misunderstood.C.They are eager to win in sports.D.They are given too much praise.【2】A fixed mind-set person is probably one who .A.doesn’t want to work hardB.cares a lot about personal safetyC.cannot share his ideas with othersD.can succeed with the help of teachers【3】What does the growth mind-set believe?A.Admitting failure is shameful.B.Talent comes with one’s birth.C.Scores should be highly valued.D.Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.【4】What should parents do for their children based on Dweck’s study?A.Encourage them to learn from failures.B.Prevent them from making mistakes.C.Guide them in doing little things.D.Help them grow with praise.5.Big Brothers Big Sisters is based on the simplicity and power of friendship. It is a program which provides friendship and fun by matching vulnerable young people(ages 7-17) with a volunteer adult who can be both a role model and a supportive friend.Volunteer tutors come from all walks of life—married, single, with or without children. Big Brothers and Big Sisters are not replacement parents or social workers. They are tutors: someone to trust, to have fun with, to talk and go to when needed.A Big Sister and Little Sister will generally spend between one and four hours together three or four times each month for at least twelve months. They enjoy simple activities such as a picnic at a park, cooking, playing sport or going to a football match. These activities improve the friendship and help the young person develop positive self-respect, confidence and life direction.Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations exist throughout the world. It is the large and most well-known provider of tutor services internationally and has been operating for 25 years.Emily and Sarah have been matched since 2008. Emily is a 10-year-old girl who has experienced some difficulties being a ccepted by her schoolmates at school. “I was pretty sure there was something wrong with me.”Emily’s mum came across Big Brothers Big Sisters and thought it would be of benefit to Emily by “providing different feedback(反馈) about herself other than just relying on schoolmates to measure her self-worth.Sarah wanted to get involved in a volunteer program. “I googled it and found out how to be a part of it. I thought it would be fun for me to get involved in making time to do something because sometimes it is all work and no play.”Big Brothers Big Sisters has been of great benefit and enjoyment to both Emily and Sarah. They love and look forward to their time together and the partnership has certainly helped Emily be more comfortable in being thewonderful, happy and unique girl she is!【1】What is the aim of Big Brothers Big Sisters?A.To offer students public services.B.To help students improve their grades.C.To organize sport activities for young people.D.To provide partnership and fun for young people.【2】According to Emily’s mother, this program may provide Emily with .A.advice from her teachersB.a new way to assess herselfC.a new way to judge her schoolmatesD.more comments from her schoolmates【3】Why did Sarah want to get involved in the program?A.She used to be a volunteer.B.She needed a part-time job.C.She felt a bit bored with her life.D.She wanted to get a challenging job.【4】According to the passage, “vulnerable young people” ar e probably those who are .A.popular at school B.rather weak physicallyC.easily hurt emotionally D.confident in themselves四、其他阅读下面短文,根据以下提示:1)汉语提示,2)首字母提示,3)语境提示,在每个空格内填入一个适当的英语单词,并将该词完整地写在右边相对应的横线上。

Take Robert for example. After the terrible car accident, his whole world had been completely dark and quiet for almost ten years. The loss of sight and hearing made him try many times to put end to his life.His family especially his wife did their best to tend and comfort him. By and by he finally regained the courage to live on.On a hot summer afternoon he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started suddenly. He stood under a large tree in order not to get himself wet. Unfortunately he was struck down to the ground by a lightning. The witnesses thought him dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water below the tree. He felt that he was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes ,he didn’t dare to believe that he saw a plough(犁子)lying near the wall. When Mrs Edwards came running up to him, she shouted their neighbours for help. And he saw her and heard her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.The news of Robert’s regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread in his area. And many doctors came to prove the truth of the news. Most of them said that he gained sight and hearing again obviously from the knock of lightning; none of them could give convincing reasons, however. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Edwards lost his sight and hearing as a result of sudden shock in a terrible accident, perhaps the only way for them to regain was by another sudden shock.【1】What did Edwards see first after being struck down by a lightning?A.His wife B.The large treeC.A plough D.The lightning itself【2】Which of the following is NOT true?A.Edwards had been deaf and blind for nearly ten yearsB.Edwards lost all his senses for about 20 minutes after the lightning had struck him downC.Doctor held the belief that Edwards was never really blind and deaf.D.Edwards woke up with face in mud.【3】What was Edwards doing when he was struck by the lightning?A.Hiding from the rain under a tree.B.Driving a car.C.Taking a walkD.lying on the ground【4】How did Edwards get his sight and hearing once more according to the doctor?A.He regained them from head injury when he fell from a tree.B.His wife’s first visit after almost ten years made him so happy that he regained them.C.The lightning took the feeling from his legs and gave the senses of sight and hearing to his head.D.The blow that caused him blind and deaf was very severe, so it took another severe blow to regain them. 2.Have you visit the flowing famous museums? Many famous museums throughout the world can offer you good chances to admire art. Florida International University(FIU) in Miami also shows art for people to see, but it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.FIU has opened the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the University to see t he art. What you need is just a computer linked to a telephone. That’s enough.You can call the telephone number of a University computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art, produced electronically by artists on their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings.Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he started the museum because computer artists had no place to show their work.A computer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send the records, or floppy discs, to others to see on their computers. He could also put his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist will have to need a very expensive laser printer.Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr Shostak said the FIU museum will make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists enjoy their work much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.【1】The main purpose of this text is to give information about____________.A.famous museums throughout the worldB.an electronic art museum in Miami, U.S.AC.art exhibitions in Florida International UniversityD.the latest development in computer art in the USA【2】To see the art in FIU museum, which of the following should you have at first?A.some records or floppy discsB.a computer and a printerC.your own pictures and drawingsD.a computer connected by telephone line【3】The museum was started when ___________.A.FIU wanted to encourage computer scientistsB.Robert Shostak decided to help computer artistsC.art students needed a place to show their worksD.computer scientists wanted to do something about art【4】The words “an audience” in the last paragraph refers to ___________.A.art studentsB.computer ownersC.exhibits in the museumD.those who will enjoy art3.Today tell you a series of information about how students in other countries can attend colleges and universities in the United States.Two years ago we broadcast our Foreign Student Series. Since then we have got more requests for information about how to attend American schools. So we will offer new reports in our series with the most current information.Each week, we will discuss a part of the process of becoming an international student in the United States. Each report will also appear on the Internet at www. .

We will also examine how the threat of terrorism has changed some of the rules for study in the United States.In researching our series, we talked not only to officials in education and government, but also to some foreign students. Most students say planning ahead helped make their educational experience successful. That is the purpose of this series—to help you plan.We would like to hear from anyone who has a question about studying in the United States.

It is tiny and has only nine islands with a population of just 11,000. In 1999, it was the third- poorest country in the world. The islanders earned just $1,000 each year.But then something unusual happened. Tuvalu received an internet domain (领土) name—the letters “tv”. These letters were very interesting for many companies around the world. A communication company from California offered to buy the domain name “tv” for $40 m. For the Tuvalans this was a very large a mount of money. The islanders became very rich.Because of global warming, and because the islands are only 3m above sea level, Tuvalu will probably become the first country in the world that will disappear under the sea.You can already see signs of the rising sea on Tuvalu. Some beaches are disappearing and you can see tree roots by the ocean. Cyclones(旋风)used to be very rare but they now appear a few times a year, and the rains that come with the cyclones cause flooding. Despite these problems, the Tuvalans had their new money. They could use it to buy themselves a future. Or at least they could use it to buy some time. Paul Lindsay, a documentary film-maker, took these questions with him all the way to Tuvalu, and came back with an incredible (难于置信的)story. As the water rises, the Tuvalans are using the money to develop the land. They are building new houses, planning nightclubs, restaurants and hotels and new cars are driving around on new roads. The residents do not think this is strange: “Just because we are sinking, it doesn’t mean we don’t want to raise our standards of living.” Sam Teo, Tuvalu’s minister for natural resources told Lindsay.【1】Which of the following information about Tuvalu is WRONG?A.It only has a population of 11,000 people.B.The average income of the Tuvalans is $1000 in 1999.C.Tuvalu is only 3m high above sea level.D.The Tuvalans received $40 million when they sold the domain name.【2】The biggest problem for the Tuvalans is _________.A.poverty B.global warmingC.The small population D.cyclones【3】Which of the following match the beginnings with the endings is correct?①The Tuvalans became rich…②By the end of the century…③The Tuvalans are spending their money④When the sea rises…a.on roads, cars and new buildingsb.the sea will cover the islands completely.c.the Tuvalans will have to leave their islandsd.when they sold their internet domain name.A.①-d, ②-b, ③-a, ④-c B.①-c, ②-d, ③-b, ④-aC.①-c, ②-b, ③-a, ④-d D.①-d, ②-c, ③-a, ④-b【4】Why did Paul Lindsay come to Tuvalu?A.To make a documentary film to record the life of the Tuvalans.B.To understand the living condition of the Tuvalans.C.To know how the Tuvalans survive despite all of their problems.D.To discover the reason for the Tuvalans not to improve their living standards.5.A lot more people are about to get a chance to buy Google Glass. It’s the Internet-connected eyewear that has become the hottest sale.Google will sell the “Explorer” version(版本) of Glass to any U.S. person who places an online order for the device beginning at 9am. PDT April 15. The product will cost $1,500. Google is saying how many sets of Glass will be available during the limited-time offer.This version of Glass, though, still isn’t the perfect product that Google hopes to sell in stores later this year.For now, Google is still trying to recruit(招聘) more people willing to serve as volunteers for its attempt to build a wearable devic e that features some of the same feature as a smart phone. “ Our Explorers are moms, bakers, surgeons, rockers, and each new Explorer has brought a new view that is making Glass better,” Google said. The device has a small screen attached above the right eye. A user can check e-mails, see Twitter post or get directions without having to use a phone. It can also take hands-free photos and video through voice-activated(声控的) commands. The ability to record images so easily has raised safely concerns about drivers wearing Glass. The lawmakers have to draw up new rules forbidding use of the device in moving vehicles. Google regards Glass as a breakthrough(突破). It will make it easier for people to surf the Internet while on the go. They also hope that the device could help police officers, firefighters, doctors and reporters do their jobs better.【1】What is special about Google Glass?A.People can only order it online.B.It’s cheaper than the ordinary glasses.C.People can explore the Internet with it.D.It doe sn’t contain any actual glass in the future.【2】Google is still trying to recruit more volunteers to _____________.A.improve their productsB.sell their productsC.advertise their productsD.wear their products【3】We can use Google Glass to do the following EXCEPT_____________.A.check e-mails B.make a callC.take video D.find your way【4】What problem may Google Glass bring to people?A.Its screen is too small for people to surf the Internet.B.It may cause traffic accidents if people use it while driving.C.Users must use their hands to take photos.D.It is difficult for many people to learn to use.四、单词拼写按照所学课文根据首字母提示填空,每空限填一词(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)。

So when to see Rodger & Hammerstein’s Cinderella, which is now playi ng on Broadway, I was very excited, As soon as I sat down, I noticed the trees lining the stage ,which gave it a magical appearance. The orchestra started to play and the lights became dark as the show began.I loved the entire performance. Everything and everyone on stage seemed like they had just jumped off the pages of the beloved story.It turns out that the Broadway experts agree with me. The show has received nine Tony nominations(提名). Tony awards are the top prizes for Broadway shows. Laura Osnes, who plays the role of Cinderella, has been nominated for the Tony for best actress in a musical.How similar is the show to the story of Cinderella you know? The answer, of course, depends on which version of the story you’ve seen or read. In an interview wi th TIME FOR Kids, Osnes pointed out that many people are familiar with the Disney movie version. There are some differences between that movie and the Broadway show. For one thing, the stepmother and the sisters are not as cruel in the show as in the movie. Also, in the Broadway version, when Cinderella escapes from the dancing party, she picks up her shoe after dropping it. So how does the prince find Cinderella again? You’ll have to see the show to find out!I just think anyone would enjoy this play, including both kids and adults. The attention to detail is amazing. In my opinion, this play deserves a double thumbs-up!【1】The author was excited because .A.he has grown up knowing the story of CinderellaB.he could see Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderell a on stageC.the lights became dark and the orchestra started to playD.the stage had a magical appearance with the tree on it【2】Which of the following shows that the Broadway experts agree with the author?A.They all agree the musical is more beloved than the story.B.They all agree the story is more complicated than the musical.C.Broadway experts have given the show nine Tony nominations.D.Laura Osnes has been nominated for the Tony for best actress.【3】What is one of the differences between the Disney movie and the Broadway show according to the passage?A.Cinderella picks up her shoe after dropping it in the movie.B.The stepmother and the sisters are crueler in the movie.C.The prince doesn’t fin d Cinderella in the show.D.Cinderella doesn’t escape from the dancing party in the show.【4】According to the author, this show is suitable .A.only for grown-upB.only for children.C.for both grown-ups and childrenD.for either grown-ups or children2.Global Positioning Systems(GPS) are now a part of everyday driving in many countries. These satellite-based systems provide turn-by-turn directions to help people get to where they want to go. But, they can also cause a lot of problems, send you to the wrong place or leave you completely lost. Many times, the driver is to blame. Sometimes a GPS error is responsible. Most often, says Barry Brown, it is a combination of the two.We spoke to Mr. Brown by Skype (网络电话软件). He told us about an incident involving a friend who had flown to an airport in the eastern United States. There he borrowed a GPS-equipped car to use during his stay. BARRY BROWN: “And they just plugged in an address and then set off to their destination. And, then it wasn’t until they were driving for thirty minutes that they realized they actually put in a destination back on the West Coast where they lived. They actually put their home address in. So again, the GPS is kind of 'garbage in garbage out'.”Mr Brown says this is a common human error. But, he says, what makes the problem worse has to do with some of the shortcomings, or failures, of GPS equipment. BARRY BROWN: “One problem with a lot of the GPS units is that they have a very small screen and they just tell you the next turn. Because they just give you the next turn, sometimes that means that it is not really giving you the overview that you would need to know that it’s going to the wrong place.”Barry Brown formerly served as a professor with the University of California, San Diego. While there, he worked on a project with Eric Laurier from the University of Edinburgh. The two men studied the effects of GPS devices on driving by placing cameras in people’s cars. They wrote a paper based on their research. It is called “The Normal, Natu ral Troubles of Driving with GPS.”It lists several areas where GPS systems can cause confusion for drivers. These include maps that are outdated, incorrect or difficult to understand. They also include timing issues(时机问题) related to when GPS commands are given.Barry Brown says, “ To make GPS systems better we need a better understanding of how drivers, passengers and GPS systems work together.”【1】In paragraph 2, Mr. Brown mentioned his friend in the conversation to _______.A.build up his own reputationB.laugh at his stupid friendC.prove the GPS system is only garbageD.describe an example of human error【2】What is the disadvantage of small screens in GPS equipment according to the text?A.They just provide the next turn.B.They are harmful to eyes.C.They make drivers tired easily.D.They often break down suddenly.【3】Which of the following statements would Barry Brown most likely agree with?A.GPS units are to blame for most GPS service failures.B.We should introduce higher standards for the driving license.C.Cameras are badly needed to help improve GPS systems.D.Drivers, GPS systems and passengers should unite to improve GPS systems.【4】What is Mr. Brown’s attitude towards GPS?A.Unconcerned.B.subjective.C.Objective.D.Critical.【5】Which of the following statements can best describe the main idea of the passage?A.Driving with GPS can be difficult.B.Driving confusions can be caused by small screens.C.Driving without GPS should be much more convenient.D.GPS equipment in driving to be given up or improved3.We’ve all felt discouragement at one point or another in our lives. However, when this emotion bleeds into other aspects of our life, it can sometimes be inappropriate or even harmful.I was personally discouraged by an adult during my high school. After telling her what university I wanted to attend, she plainly told me I would not get in. I was completely shocked and angry at her statement. The adult may have not intended to hurt me with her words, but it had an after effect. The meeting made me think she had no belief that I could possibly succeed in the future. After that it caused me to try to avoid any future meeting with adults until absolutely necessary.We are all human; therefore, we can all understand that some days are more challenging. But when people allow situations of stress to consume(充满) them, they cannot perform their best. People should pay attention to how their reactions could affect the person they are interacting with. People have the potential to perform their best when they are indulged in the task at hand, but adults who come off in a rude and aggressive way through communication have an effect on teenagers’ mind.Adults whether in schools, or any other institutions should work to tear down walls gently and create a safe space for the person they are serving. These adults should also help and contribute to a person’s academic, personal and professional growth. High school is an important time when young people need someone to believe in them.In conclusion, I would like to add that it is not completely up to adults only. Students are responsible for seeking help from adults who are in authority(权威) positions. They are also responsible for the way they approach adults in their academic surroundings. Students can expect to be treated in a respectful way when they express at the beginning. Generally the responsibility lies on both parties. When both sides can communicate in a polite manner then the complete environment of the school has the potential to develop well.【1】The passage is mainly about ______.A.the adults’ roles in schoolB.the skill to encourage studentsC.the way to communicate with childrenD.the importance of personal professional growth【2】Who are responsible for children’s development at school according to the writer?A.Students.B.Teachers.C.Headmasters.D.Both students and teachers.【3】The underlined phrase probably “are indulged in” means “______”.A.are weak in B.are amazed atC.are interested in D.are unbearable with【4】The writer once tried to avoid meetings with adults because ______.A.he was very busyB.he thought highly of himselfC.he was once hurt by an adultD.he couldn’t get high marks at school4.Are you a problem shopper? The answer is “Yes”, if you or someone else thinks that you sometimes get carried away with shopping. In other words, do you or does someone else think you are busy in extreme shopping? If people have regrets later about their sh opping, or have an “out-of-control” feeling about the quantities of what they buy or the amount of money they use, they may be considered to be problem shoppers. Extreme shopping can lead to a more serious problem — addictive shopping. Addictive shoppers feel driven by the desire to shop and spend money. They experience great tension which drives them to shop and spend money and they feel a “rush” during the time they are occupied with the shopping activity.Extreme or addictive shopping may result from long-time unpleasant feelings, of which anxiety, pain and shame are common ones. When we feel bad inside, we often do something to make ourselves feel better. In this case, we often go shopping.A few people shop to relieve their boredom or emptiness. For some people, the motivation is a desire for status, power, beauty or success. Some love to shop as it makes them feel valued in the eyes of the shop assistants. Others shop simply because it makes them forget, at least temporarily, tension, fear or unhappiness in their life. Besides, shopping malls are designed to encourage continual shopping. For instance, there are some malls where you can’t see clocks displaying the time because they don’t want you to become too aware of the time you spend there. What’s more, food courts, coffee shops and restrooms are provided, so you don’t have to leave the mall because of your physical needs.Therefore, once you become aware of how market forces work, you will certainly come to control your shopping behavior. For example, how much time you will spend and what areas you will visit can be decided before you enter the mall. Keep a written account of what items you will buy and how much money you will spend. Make a plan for what you are going to buy before you feel the urge to shop and then stick to it. That is vital for gaining self-control.【1】Which of the following people may not be problem shoppers?A.Those who cannot control the amount of money they use.B.Those who just walk around the shopping malls.C.Those who are occupied in too much shopping.D.Those who feel sorry for their shopping.【2】 According to the passage, what may not result in addictive shopping?A.The awareness of how market forces work.B.The desire for status, power, beauty or success.C.Boredo m, emptiness, tension, fear or unhappiness in people’s life.D.Long-time bad feelings of anxiety, pain and shame.【3】What does the author suggest to control our shopping behaviour?A.Never going to the shopping malls because there are many tricks.B.Applying for a credit card before we go shopping.C.Making the shopping time as short as possible.D.Making a shopping list before we go shopping.【4】The author writes this passage to _______.A.inform the shopping malls how to attract more shoppersB.provide solutions to the problem shoppingC.scold the problem shoppersD.tell a shopping story5.She turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall. No way could I have sent her away. No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. "We're moving house.'; "No space for her any more with the baby coming." "We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present." People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning(放弃) an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen,I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner's. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. "We didn't know what had happened to her," said the woman at the door. "I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared." "She must have tried to come back to them and got lost," added a boy from behind her. 'I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I've got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I've learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.【1】In her first few days at the author's house, Goldie .A.felt worried B.was angryC.ate a little D.sat by the fire【2】Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she .A.saw her puppiesB.heard familiar barkingC.wanted to leave the authorD.found her way to her old home【3】The passage is organized in order of .A.time B.effectC.importance D.Complexity三、其他1.根据所提供语境,用方框中所给短语的适当形式填空。

AIt is 10 in the morning, and I am travelling down the Li River by raft, which is made of pieces of wood tied together. The sun is already burning hot even though it has not yet reached fl strength, but a calm gentle wind cools my skin. So far the day is wonderful, but the purpose of my trip is not just to have fun; I am following in the footsteps of Xu Xiake (1587—1641), the famous Chinese travel writer and geographer. Though Xu was from Jiangsu, he spent more than 30 years traveling throughout the country, and greatly admired my destination today—Ox Gorge.As we flow down the river, we are surrounded by sharp hill sticking up into the sky—karsts. Unique among mountains, karsts were formed over thousands of years as rain flowed into the acidic soil and melted the soft rock, leaving the harder rock behind. Guangxi is full of karsts, giving it some of the most interesting—and beautiful—-scenery in the world. Xu was one of the first people to make a careful study of Guilin's karsts and their related cave systems. He, like many people today, found them fascinating.Suddenly, our raft hits some rapids, and I find myself covered in water. I turn to my craftsman and we share a laugh. The water not only keeps us cool, but it is all part of the adventure.What made someone like Xu spend years travelling thousands of kilometres away from home? Perhaps it's the same reason as mine: to explore the world and to discover new things. As Xu wrote, "A great man should in the morning be at the blue sea and in the evening at Mount Cangwu. Why should I restrict(束缚)myself to one comer of the world?"_____________. Much like today, the late Ming Dynasty was a golden age of tourism within China. People travelled hundreds of kilometres to visit temples, go mountain climbing, or explore scenery.21. Which of the following matches the underlined word "ran" in Paragraph 1?A BC D22. Which of the following belongs to karsts mentioned in Paragraph 2?A BC D23. Which of the following best matches Xu Xiake' words in Paragraph 4?A. The world is a book and those who do not travel rend only one page.B. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.C. Travel is never a matter of money, but of courage.D. Travel far enough, you meet yourself.24. What sentence best fits into the gap in the last paragraph?A. Why not walk alone across China?B. Our raft reaches Ox Gorge.C. What an experience!D. Xu was not alone.25. What type of writing is the text?A. Book review.B. Short story.C. Travel journal.D. Case interview.BWith the coming of the Internet, survival strategies spread through the web and pop culture can actually get you killed.Here are some of the most common myths, and the facts that could save your life.Myth 1:Rub(揉搓)frostbitten skinEvery winter, this belief is passed on quickly from one person to another. But, in fact, rubbing frostbitten skin is precisely the wrong thing to do, because it can cause tissue damage and harm. Instead, slowly warm frostbittenskin in a heated room, using blankets and warm water bottles, if possible.Survival expert Cory Lundin says, "If someone has frostbite and can't safely rewarm the affected body part without the possibility of it refreezing, the general rule is to leave it alone until safely rewarming the part can be completed. "Frostbite means that cells within the body are essentially frozen."Sharp, tiny ice crystals can cause further damage to the cells as they move back and forth due to the rubbing of the victim's skin, "Lundin adds.Myth 2∶Cut and suck(吮吸)on a snakebite woundThis Hollywood movie scene, featured in many rattlesnake-bit westerns, can actually get you killed.Lundin explains that the poison from a snake bite immediately enters the blood flowing through the body, making it impossible to suck out. The act of cutting into a bit wound increases the risks of infection.Instead, Lundin advises preventing the injured area from moving to help decrease the spread of poison and staying as calm as possible to slow the spread of poison through the blood until you can get medical attention.Myth 3: Hit a shark in the noseThis is a bad advice for defending yourself against a shark attack. For one thing, you cannot possibly land a blow directly on the nose of a shark trying to attack yon in the water. For another, a fist isn't likely to stop a hungry shark.Instead, if a shark tries to bite you. Use your fingers to grab its eyes and gills(鳃)or try and put a solid object—a surf board, life preserver, anything you can—between you and the hark26. When is the proper time to treat the frostbitten skin?A. After the frostbitten skin has been rewarmed.B. Before using warm water bottles.C. As soon as the frostbite is found.D. Upon entering a warm room.27. What can we do with the snakebite wound before paramedics come?A. Cut the wound.B. Suck the poison.C. Rub the edge of the wound.D. Stop the wound from moving28. Which of the following is practical way to defend a shark attack in the water?A. Hit its nose directly.B. Slap its eyes or gills.C. Swim away immediately.D. Use hard materials to block.29. How does the writer persuade readers?A. Giving examples.B. Explaining reasons.C. Clarifying and giving advice.D. Listing the dangers.30. What is the purpose of the text?A. To teach readers how to survive in the wild.B. To guide readers to judge online information.C. To remind readers of the importance of first aid.D. To warn readers against the web and pop culture.CA book, Ershisi Jieqi Qishier Hou, published recently, aims to represent the insight of artist Xu Dongdong and writer Xu Lijing on the relationship between humans and nature, and their exploration of abstract thinking in the ancient system of solar terms and phonological signals. In this book, Xu Dongdong employs Western painting technique depicting the 24 solar terms and 72phonological signals.Xu Dongdong started his art career with ink painting. He later turned to Impressionism and employed Western painting skill and concepts in his creations on xuanzhi, or rice paper, widely used in Chinese calligraphy and paining.

"The book features 142 paintings of the series, which took him years to complete. Through his work, he tries to reflex on topics, such as the ideas of happiness, the relationship between the evolution of human civilizations and the formation and disintegration(瓦解)of a nation, and ancient Chinese wisdom一the philosophics about the harmonious coexistence of human and nature in particular. "painting is not the end. Exploring the truth is the end, " says the 63-year~old artist.In the paintings, he not only uses an abstract style to present the intangible(无形的)cultural heritage, but also creates new thing from traditional Chinese culture, he says. "Abstract logical thinking can inspire young people's imagination and creativity. During modernization, if we want to build our own scientific and industrial systems, we fret need to build our abstract logical thinking system , " he says.Painting the series is to stand at the meeting point of the East and the West and explore Chinese abstract local thinking that may help to build China's new culture and support value identification in the future global transformation, he says.31. What does the underlined word "depicting" in Paragraph I mean?A. CreatingB. Documenting.C. Exploring.D. Representing.32. What is the book Ershisi Jieqi Qishier Hou mainly about?A. The integration of Chinese culture and Western art.B. The summary of Western painting skills and concepts.C. The insight of artist Xu Dongdong and writer Xu Lijing.D. The practice of improving Chinese calligraphy and painting?33. Which of the following can reflect the feature of 142 paintings of the series?A. Every painting is a "wonder" of nature.B. Every painting is a "symphony" with nature.C. Every painting shows a simple kind of life in nature.D. Every painting shows a constant struggle with nature.34.

He is a person of open-mindedness and original thinking.D. He is praised for exploring Chinese abstract logical thinking.35. What would be the best tile for the text?A. Seasonal WisdomB.
