A new neighbor had just moved into the apartment below him. The newcomer was deaf, or seemed to be, because he played his stereo loud enough for the whole building to hear.On the first day he heard the stereo rocking over, Edward marched downstairs and politely told the newcomer that his stereo was too loud. He asked the new tenant to turn the volume down and keep it down as long as he lived in the building. The tenant appeared surprised and embarrassed, and said, “Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize it was that loud.”So, Edward returned upstairs, feeling good, because he had taken a stand and politely let the newcomer know that loud music was not going to be tolerated. The next day all was quiet, and Edward continued to be pleased with himself. The following day, Edward thought it must be Fourth of July, because a marching band was playing on his street. In fact, it was the new neighbor who was playing his music loud again.Edward was not one to repeat himself, feeling that each time you repeated yourself, you diminished the value of your words. So, he did what he always did with rude neighbors-grin and bear it. Eventually, they would move away. What else are you going to do?In Los Angles a year ago, a woman had complained to her upstairs neighbor that he was playing his drums too loud and too often. The drummer repeatedly ignored her. One day the woman walked upstairs and shot the drummer in the head and his girlfriend in the chest. The woman was sentenced to prison for 20 years.The dead drummer won’t bother anyone with his drums, but the woman might be wishing now that she had learned to grin and bear it. If she were still living in her apartment, she could always move. When you’re in prison, you don’t have that option.4.The man living below where Edward lived was .A.a deaf manB.the owner of the houseC.a tenantD.an old neighbor5.What did Edward always do with rude neighbors?A.Grinning and bearing it.B.Persuading them to stop repeatedly.C.Shouting them to dead.D.Moving away from the rude neighbors.6.The woman killed her neighbor because .A.he ignored her advice repeatedlyB.she could not stand his playing the guitar too loudC.she could not put up with him any longerD.he played the drums too often7.The author writes the last paragraph to prove that .A.being in prison means the loss of freedomB.grinning and bearing it is the best policyC.Edward should follow the example of the womanD.the woman was right to kill her neighbor【答案】4.C5.A6.C7.B【解析】试题分析: 本文是一篇故事,面对噪音扰民的情况,如果礼貌阻止不成功,也应该理性克制,采取暴力的方式将会遗憾终身。

考试用时120分钟)第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)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。
AShanghai Disney Resort has revealed its ticket prices for Disneyland claiming the lowest of all 12 Disney parks and six resorts in the world.Shanghai Disneyland ticket prices are set at 499 yuan (75 dollars) for the grand opening period (June 16-30, 2016) and regular price at 370 yuan. Its regular price for a one-day ticket is lower than its peers in Hong Kong, which is priced at 539 yuan and the Disneyland in Tokyo in Japan at 374 yuan. The regular price for a one-day ticket at the two parks in Los Angeles is $139. Tickets for Shanghai’s Disneyland will be on sale on March 28, 2016.Shanghai’s Disneyland will have it s opening day on June 16, 2016. All tickets will be date-specific and valid for admission only on the date purchased.Peak pricing for high-demand dates, including designated holidays, summer holidays and weekends, is set at 499 yuan. Special pricing will be provided to categorized guests: children (1.4m and below), seniors (65 years old and above) and guests with disabilities will receive discounts of 25 percent, infants (1m and below) receive free admission. A two-day ticket will be available at a five percent discount. On March 28, 2016, guests can obtain information on tickets through several official channels.The project has been under construction for more than six years now. Jun 16-that is, 6-16-2016-has been apparently chosen as the date of opening because the three 6s are believed to be auspicious, foretelling success.Real estate professionals believe any success of Shanghai Disney Resort would entail all-round benefits for the area. For example, visitors in huge numbers would likely spark a retail boom in Shanghai."Supplies of retail properties are really limited now and prices have more than doubled in the past 12 months. Obviously, investors believe that even a 10 square meter space for a noodle stand will be really profitable if it is close enough to Disneyland," said Lu Jianxin, a real estate agent with Shanghai Huayu Property Ltd.21.According to the passage, in which place is the regular price for a one-day ticket highest?A. Shanghai.B. Los Angeles.C. Tokyo.D. Hong Kong.22.According to the passage, how much will the two-day tickets cost if a couple go to ShanghaiDisneyland on July 16, 2016, Saturday?A. About 1900 yuan.B. About 2000 yuan.C. About 1500 yuan.D. About 1400 yuan.23.What does the underlined word “auspicious” mean?A. suspiciousB. successfulC. luckyD. unsuccessful24.What does this passage most probably come from?A. A school textbook.B. A news report.C. An advertisement.D. An introduction of a scenic spot.BGregory Talley used to sleep in a park, at an airport, or under a bridge. The 50-year-old has been homeless for more than 10 years. “It is hard. It’s hard to live homeless. You filled every day trying to find out where you are going to get something to eat. If I hadn’t found wonderful Fairfax Coun ty Kennedy Shelter, I wouldn’t know where I would be by now. I might be dead,” Talley said.According to 2015 government data, more than a half-million people in the United States are homeless on any given night. As many homeless shelters across the U.S. remain at or near capacity, the country faces complicated challenges. In his fiscal 2017 budget, President Obama proposed spending $11 billion over the next 10 years to fight family homelessness.The Kennedy Shelter is one of the facilities New Hope Housing provides for homeless families and individuals in the Washington suburbs. Pam Michell has dedicated her life to making the lives of this vulnerable population better as executive director of the nonprofit organization.“I went to Africa in 1985. And I sa w an immense amount of poverty, but I saw so much hope. And I wondered what I was doing at home in my middle-class American life and decided that I should try to do something that would bring hope to people,” Michell said. “It is convenient, homelessness j ust happened to be what was around me. So I picked that,” she added.When Michell began working with New Hope Housing 25 years ago, its three shelters had about 80 beds. Now, it has 350 beds and serves about 1,500 homeless people every year. Michell has expanded the program beyond just providing beds for the night.“We do outreach, we do prevention, we do permanent housing, we do transitional housing. We have an education program with all sorts of different things to move people to end their homelessness,” she said. “Our Out of Poverty program tries to teach the shelter residents self-reliance and work values, and includes courses on planning and personal responsibility.”25.Gregory Talley is mentioned in the first paragraph in order to __________.A. introduce the topicB. support the main ideaC. draw the reader’s attentionD. raise the reader’s awareness26.From the passage we know that the Kennedy Shelter ____________.A. is a nonprofit organizationB. is a place for the homeless to spend the nightC. is located in WashingtonD.C. D. provides 350 beds for 1500 people27.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. There were homeless people everywhere Michell went.B. New Hope Housing does not just provide beds for the night.C. New Hope Housing has three shelters for the homeless.D. Michell started to work with New Hope Housing in 1985.CAs an English learner, you want to be able to understand and to discuss a subject. You want to have the ability to express your opinions, and to support that opinion with a clear argument. You can learn these skills by learning how to debate.In everyday conversation, Americans use the word debate to talk about discussions among people. When people debate, they give their own opinions about a topic.Another use of the word debate describes a more formal discussion. Debaters work on a team to convince a judge that their opinion about a topic has more value than the opposite side’s.Debate is part of the tradition of forensics started in Ancient Greece. The Greeks thought that, in a democracy, people needed to have certain skills. These skills included speaking in public in favor of an opinion, and providing evidence to support one’s opinion.The Greeks supported the development of these skills by holding contests. Western education today continues the tradition with competitions between debate teams.Charles LeBeau wrote a book with Michael Lubetsky called “Discover Debate” to help teachers understand a simple way to teach debate. The method depends on creating a kind of visual aid known as a graphic organizer. The visual aid reflects the way we talk about critical thinking and developing an argument.Students work with the idea of building their argument just like they would build a house. They would draw their house on paper or a whiteboard and list:•The focus of the discussion or the debate is the roof.•The reasons and arguments are the “pillars” to support the roof.•The data, numbers, examples, and expert opinions provide the concrete foundation.The house approach gives students who have not experienced a debate in their own culture a way to plan what they will say to support their message.28.You are debating when ____________.A. you have an idea and discuss it with your classmates or friendsB. you are learning a foreign language and discussing a subjectC. you speak in protection of your opinions trying to convince othersD. you express your opinions in a competition before a judge29.The book “Discover Debate” is intended for ___________.A. teachersB. debatersC. speech competitorsD. English students30.What can be inferred from the passage?A. Ancient Greeks were fond of debating with opponents.B. Ancient Greeks made speeches in public to express their ideas.C. There are debating lessons in all Western schools today.D. Drawing a house before making a speech helps the speaker a lot.31.What does the underlined sentence (the last paragraph) suggest?A. A house is helpful to planning a speech.B. The house approach is useful for language learners.C. It’s a good idea for English learners to learn the house approach.D. Debate is a must for all students in the world.DThere was daylight. Glass could tell that much without moving, but otherwise he had no idea of the time. He lay where he fell down the day before. His anger had carried him to the edge of the clearing (森林的空地), but his fever stopped him there.The bear had hurt Glass from the outside and now the fever hurt from within. It felt to Glass as if hehad been hollowed out. He trembled uncontrollably, dreaming of the warmth of a fire. Looking around, he saw that no smoke rose from the remains of the fire in the campsite. No fire, no warmth.He wondered if he could at least go back to his blanket, and made a tentative effort to move. The movement caused something deep in his chest. He felt a cough coming on and tensed his stomach muscles to stop it. The muscles were painful from earlier battles, and despite his effort, the cough broke out. It felt like his inside was being torn out through his throat.When the pain of coughing decreased, he focused again on the blanket.I have to get warm. It took all his strength to lift his head. The blanket lay about twenty feet away. He rolled from his side to stomach, moving his left arm out in front of his body. Glass bent his left leg, then straightened it to push. Between his one good arm and his one good leg, he push-dragged himself across the clearing. Each breath drew like a cutting through his throat, and he felt again the trembling in his wounded back. He stretched to grab the blanket when it came within reach. He pulled it around his shoulders, embracing the weighty warmth of the Hudson Bay wool. The he passed out.Through the long morning, Glass’s body fought against the infection of his wounds. He slipped between consciousness, unconsciousness and a confusing state, aware of his surroundings like random pages of a book, scattered glimpses of a story with no continuity to bind them. When conscious, he wished desperately to sleep again, if only to gain respite (暂缓) from the pain. Yet each interlude (中间) of sleep came with a terrifying thought that he might never wake again. Is this what it’s like to die?32.From the passage, we know that __________.A. Glass was a hunter who used to hunt bears in the forestB. Even though Glass was wounded, he killed the bear at lastC. After fighting with a bear, Glass was seriously woundedD. Glass lay in the clearing for a week without being found33.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. All the other people were searching for Glass when he was lying in the clearing.B. Glass managed to put the blanket around his shoulders before he passed awayC. With one good arm and one good leg, Glass pushed-dragged himself back homeD. The whole morning Glass was sometimes conscious and sometimes unconscious34.Paragraph 5 of this passage mainly tells us ___________.A. how Glass was wounded by a bear and diedB. what happened to Glass before he recoveredC. why Glass tried to get his blanket backD. how Glass struggled to keep himself warm35.We can infer from the passage that ___________.A. a desire for life supported Glass to struggle against hardshipsB. life in the forest used to be hard for both animals and manC. Hudson Bay was a small city where best wool was producedD. Glass wanted to sleep as much as possible to recover soon第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2015-2016高三第一学期第二次月考英语试卷(含答案)
2015-2016高三级期中考试英语试卷第I卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分30分)第一节阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、和D)中,选出最佳选项。
(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)AParents, our first teachers, play a highly significant role in our lives.However, doesn’t it seem that many of us become to have conflicts with them when we start high school? We're less likely to listen to them and take their suggestions——we even rebel against them.Why? It may be the so-called “generation gap”. A generation gap appears when we begin to feel our parents are ignoring us, don’t understand us, and we feel we can no longer share our feelings with them.The key reason is our desire for independence. In senior high school, we start to want to take responsibility for our own lives and make our own decisions. But parents resist this. They still want to control us and try to force us to do things they think we should do. Debate and discussion often come to nothing. Gradually, we talk with them less, and keep our feelings locked up inside.Zhang Xiaoyun, 16, of Ningbo, Zhejiang, has talked less and less with her mother since she started senior high school. “She believes studies should be my priority, not my inner world,” Zhang said. “Each day, she asks me the same old questions like, ‘How was your last exam?’ or ‘Have you made any progress in physics?’” To Zhang, these questions are annoying and so she always tries to ignore them and answers perfunctorily. “Sometimes, when I get upset, I quarrel with her. After, she comes to apologize and comfort me. But I know, she doesn’t completely understand me,” Zhang said. Now, a home that was once full of laughter has fallen into gloom and silence.The generation gap can be harmful. Because of the lack of communication, our parentsno longer know what we are thinking about. There are quarrels, even over trivial things.When that happens, we may not be able to concentrate on our studies. Some of us even become afraid to go home after school——a very serious situation for the whole family.1. Which of the following is not included in the passage?A. The causes of generation gap.B. The effects of generation gap.C. One example of generation gap.D. Ways of narrowing generation gap.2. Which of the following is one reason for the generation gap according to the passage?A. Modern society changing very fast.B. Parents having unrealistic hopes of their children.C. Parents and kids not understanding and respecting each other.D. Young people liking to escape from the control of their parents.3. Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word“perfunctorily”?A. attentivelyB. indifferently(冷淡地)C. flatteringly(奉承地)D. seriously4. In the view of the author, ________.A. parents should allow their children more freedomB. parents and children should not stay togetherC. the younger generation should value the older generationD. academic records are more important than one’s inner worldBDo you still get free plastic bags from the supermarkets? Things have changed.China has banned free plastic bags at shops and supermarkets, and people have to pay for using bags. The rule started on June. It came because our country tried to make litter less. Making super-thin plastic bags has also been banned.The Chinese once used about 3,000,000,000 plastic shopping bags a day, and they have1caused pollution of the environment. The bags have become a main cause of plastic pollution because they are easy to break and people throw them away here and there. So the Chinese people are encouraged to bring their own bags for shopping.What kind of shopping bag is the best to bring? Some students in Anhui have a good idea. They make their own shopping bags. They use old clothes to make cloth bags, and send them to their parents as presents. They also ask their parents and friends to use cloth bags instead of plastic ones. They think it is their duty to protect the environment.5. People in China have to now.A. throw plastic bags here and thereB. collect plastic bags in the streetC. pay for using plastic bags at shops and supermarketsD. use free plastic bags at shops and supermarkets6. The Chinese people are encouraged to bring for shopping.A. no bagsB. free plastic bagsC. their own bagsD. super-thin plastic bags7. What’s the main idea of this article?A. Making super-thin plastic bags has been banned in China.B. The bags have become a main cause of plastic pollution.C. Some students in Anhui begin to make their own shopping bags.D.To protect the environment, free plastic bags have been banned in China.CIn general, people talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. Researchers in psychology think that there are also two groups of people: people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool colors.The warm colors are red, orange and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people usually want to be active. People think that red, for example, is exciting. Sociable people, those who like to be with others, like red. The cool colors are green, blue and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue.Red may be exciting, but one researcher says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggests that a warm color,such as red or orange in a good color for a living room or restaurant. People who are relaxing or eating do not want time to pass quickly. Cool colors are better for officers or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass quickly.Researchers do not know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool. However, almost everyone agrees that red, orange and yellow are warm and that green, blue and violet are cool. Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days. Because in the north the sun is higher during summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow.8. Which of the following statements is not true?A. Sociable people like warm colors.B. Warm colors can make people excited.C. People who like to be with others don’t like red.D. Where there are warm colors, people want to be active.9. Which is the right color for different rooms?A. Red or orange for officers.B. Orange for dining rooms.C. Blue for bedrooms.D.

Cool colors remind people of cool days.D. People have an agreeable opinion of warm colors and cool colors.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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

AGrandpa Nybakken loved life — especially when he could play a trick on somebody. At those times, his large Norwegian frame shook with laughter while he pretended innocent surprise, exclaiming, “Oh, forevermore!” But on a cold Saturday in downtown Chicago, Grandpa felt that God played a trick on him, and grandpa wasn’t laughing.Grandpa worked as a carpenter. On this particular day, he was building some boxes for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage abroad. On his way home, he reached into his shirt pocket to find his glasses, but they were gone. He remembered putting them there that morning, so he drove back to the church. His search proved fruitless.Suddenly, he realized what had happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the boxes, which he had nailed shut. His brand new glasses were heading for China!The Great Depression was at its height, and Grandpa had six children. He had spent twenty dollars for those glasses that very morning.“It’s not fair,” he told God as he drove home in frustration. “I’ve been very faithful in giving of my tim e and money to your work, and now this.”Several months later, the director of the orphanage was on vacation in the United States.He wanted to visit all the churches that supported him, so he came to speak on Sunday night at my grandfather’s small church i n Chicago. Grandpa and his family sat in their usual seats among the small congregation (教堂会众).“But most of all,” he said, “I must thank you for the glasses you sent last year.”“Even if I had the money, there was simply no way of replacing those glasses.Along with not being able to see well, I experienced headaches every day, so my co-workers and I were much in prayer about this. Then your boxes arrived.When my staff removed the covers, they found a pair of glasses lying on the top.” After a long pause, he continued, “Folks, when I tried on the glasses,it was as though they had been custom-made just for me! I want to thank you for being a part of that!”The people listened, happy for the amazing glasses. But the director surely must have confused their church with another, they thought, there were no glasses on their list of items to be sent overseas.But sitting quietly in the back, with tears streaming down his face, an ordinary carpenter realized the Master Carpenter had used him in an extraordinary way.21. Which of the following is NOT true about Grandpa Nybakken according to the passage?A. He was an outgoing man and held an active attitude towards life.B. He had a large family to support.C. He was a carpenter working in the church.D. He was a loyal Christian.22. The people in the church but Grandpa felt confused at what the director said because________.A. Grandpa didn’t tell the director that he was the owner of the glassesB. the director wanted to return the glasses even though he liked itC. the director could not get such glasses in their own countryD. the glasses were not included in the donation list23. Who does “the Master Carpenter” in the last paragraph probably refer to?A. Grandpa’s master.B. One of Grandpa’s friends.C. God.D. Grandpa’s co-worker.24. Which can be the best title of the passage?A. Grandfather’s life.B. The Helpful Donation.C. The Perfect Mistake.D. An Impressive Speech.BAs a parent you might never guess all the ways a good imagination benefits your child. It helps a preschooler:Develop social skillsAs children play pretend, they explore relationships between family members, friends and co-workers and learn more about how people interact. Playing doctor, they imagine how physicians care for their patients. Playing house, they learn more about how parents feel about their children. Imaginative play helps develop sympathy for others. If children can imagine how it feels to be left out of a game or to lose a pet, they are better able to help those in need. They become more willing to play fair, to share, and to cooperate.Build self-confidenceYoung children have very little control over their lives. Imagining oneself as a builder of skyscrapers or a superhero defending the planet is empowering to a child. It helps them develop confidence in their abilities and their potential.Boost intellectual growthUsing the imagination is the beginning of abstract thought. Children who can see a king’s castle in a mound of sand or a delicious dinner in a mud pie are learning to think symbolically. This skill is important in school where a child will have to learn that numerals symbolize groups of objects, letters symbolize sounds, and so on.Practice language skillsKids who play pretend with their friends do a lot of talking. This helps boost their vocabulary, improve sentence structure and enhance communication skills.Work out fearsPlaying pretend can help children work out their fears and worries. When children role-play about the big, bad monster under the bed, they gain a sense of control over him and he doesn’t seem quite so big or so bad. Imaginative play also helps kids let out confusing feelings they might have, such as anger toward a parent or rivalry (竞争) with a new sibling (兄弟姐妹).To encourage your youngster’s imagination, read to him every day. Books o ffer children the opportunity to visit other worlds and create new ones of their own.For generations children have enjoyed reading the story of Peter Pan because Peter takes them on fascinating adventures. Reader’s Digest Young Families offers a beautifu l vintage Disneyedition of Peter Pan, which is an iParenting Media Award winner. Click here to find out how you can get this classic story along with 2 free books -- Bambi and Pinocchio.25. Where can you probably find the article?A. Newspaper.B. Magazine.C. Internet.D. Book.26. What’s the meaning of the underlined word?A. improve.B. limit.C. pull.D. praise.27. What’s Not the advantage of children having a good imagination?A. Understanding the other people’s feelings a nd problems.B. Expressing their feelings like anger.C. Having a strong faith in their own abilities and potential.D. Helping them form a good habit of reading story.CA hoarder is someone who is unable or unwilling to throw items away, and the disposal (处理) of items causes them considerable pain. When people hoard a massive amount of objects, it takes over the inhabitable spaces of their home. As the collection grows, they are unable to do simple , quotidian activities such as cooking a meal or watch TV. Sometimes the hoarding is so severe that parts of their homes become inaccessible.But among the many problems that such behavior brings about, the most significant are the health risks. Once hallways and windows are blocked, hoarders are at the risk of dying in a fire, since they no longer have a clear path of evacuation(疏散). Things that are piled up high can fall on top of the homeowner, or a person trying to climb over a pile of objects can experience a fall. There is also the problem of sanitation(卫生). Areas where food can’t be properly cleaned begin to attract insects, and bathrooms that are full of many possessions can no longer be washed.Unfortunately, the serious effect of the problem can become worse for two reasons. One is that since the behavior progress behind closed doors, people can accumulate collections of objects for years before friends or family members become aware of the problem. A second reason is that hoarders often don’t recognize that they have a problem, and will continue to live in denial until they get professional help.When attempting to make a diagnosis, psychologists don’t regard hoarding as a disorder initself. Instead, it’s often seen as a symptom of obsessive-compulsive disorder (强迫症), depression, or anxiety. The mental health community has only recently begun an intensive study of boarding, and more research is needed in order to understand its causes and find effective treatment.28.The first paragraph mostly serves to ________.A.introduce the problem of hoardingrm the public of the hoarder’s lifestyleC.illustrate how frequently hoarders’ lifestyleD.explain how hoarded react when items are disposed29. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Hoarders’ houses are not always out of order.B. Hoarding is regarded as a disorder by psychologists.C. Symptoms of hoarding can’t be easily noticed since it progresses quietly.D. The mental health community has found effective treatments for hoarding.30. We can infer from the passage that ______________.A. hoarding is a serious problem that needs concern.B. the main reason of hoarding is the economic burden.C. food preparation becomes easier if a person is a hoarder.D. hoarded items can’t be piled higher than a person’s head.31. The underlined word “quotidian” probably means _________.A. abnormalB. ordinaryC. skillfulD. popularDHow can a creature weighing over 5 tons and normally taking 150 kilograms of food and 120 liters of water per day survive in a desert environment?In the southwest African country of Namibia, and the Sahara lands of Mali further north, the desert elephant does just that.Although not regarded as a separate species from the African elephant, the desert cousin differs in many ways. Their bodies are smaller, to absorb less heat, and their feet are larger for easier walking across sandy surfaces. They are taller, to reach higher branches. They have shorter tusks (象牙), and most importantly, longer trunks to dig for water in riverbeds.Desert elephants can travel over 70 kilometers in search for feeding grounds and waterholes, and have a larger group of families. They drink only every 3-4 days, and can store water in a “bag” at the back of their throat, which is only used when badly needed. Desert elephants are careful feeders---they seldom root up trees and break fewer branches, and thus maintain what little food sources are available. Young elephants may even eat the dung (粪便) of the female leader of a group when facing food shortage. During drought they are unlikely to give birth to their young but with good rains the birthrate will increase greatly. Desert elephants have sand baths, sometimes adding their own urine (尿液) to make them muddy!As we continue to overheat our weak planet, it can only be hoped that other animal species will adapt as extraordinarily well to change as the desert elephant.32. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 means “_____”.A. remains in the African countriesB. drinks 120 liters of water a dayC. manages to live in desert areasD. eats 150 kilograms of food daily33. Desert elephants are called careful feeders because they _____.A. rarely ruin treesB. drink only every 3-4 daysC. search for food in large groupsD. protect food sources for their young34. The author answers the question raised in the first paragraph with _____.A. stories and explanationB. facts and descriptionsC. examples and conclusionD. evidence and argument35. What can be inferred from the last sentence in the passage?A. Overheating the earth can be stopped.B. Not all animal species are so adaptable.C. The planet will become hotter and hotter.D. Not all animals are as smart as desert elephants.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。

AAlmost five years ago, I announced to my loved ones I was to become a Mrs. Naturally.Ithen began to wonder about the perfect wedding dress, hoping that it would fit me. Even at the ageof 23, I had gone through my share of dieting.I am an emotional eater and I knew that at 5 feet 5 in ches tall and 180 pounds, I wasn’ t at my healthiest. My mother had been doing Weight Watchers for some time and was rapidly seeingresults without starving herself. She shared her books with me and explained the program:estimate your daily target based on your weight and other factors, write down everything you eatand move! The longer I stuck to it the more I noticed a difference in the way I enjoyed food. Isoon began to like eating fruits and vegetables for snacks instead of chocolate bars and chips. Mymother and I went on walks together and kept each other in check. Unsurprisingly, I lost twentypounds soon and looked amazing in my wedding dress.I buy healthy foods, replace ice cream and faithfully keep a food journal. I exercised and takeevening walks. Because I have a hard time reaching for something healthy by myself, I bought aWeight Watchers cookbook and use it to prepare our meals. I use small plates and bowls to trickmyself into believing there is more food than the serving size.It ’ s beenhard to discipline myself not to eat badly. But when I find myself having a desirefor strawberries instead of chocolate, I know it’ s all worthwhile.21. The author successfully lost twenty pounds ____________ .A .by walking and eating less every dayB . by only eating fruits and vegetablesC. with the help of her motherD . under her doctor’ s direction22. What is the third paragraph mainly about?A .How to prepare healthy food .B .What the author does to keep healthy .C.The role exercise plays in keeping fit .D .The ways of eating less food .23. We know from the last paragraph that the author ____________ .A .likes strawberries mostB . finds keeping a healthy diet easyC.can ’ t resist chocolate D .has formed healthy eating habitsBOne of the most popular American singers of the twentieth century was Elvis Presley. Hemade the rock’ n’ roll music popular all over the world. He sold millions of records and mademany successful films, and he helped change the direction of popular music in the 1960s. ElvisPresley was born in a poor family in 1935. His parents were simple country peoplewho often took him to church ,where he learned to sing, and he never forgot the kind of songs thathe used to sing in church as a child.When he was young, Elvis moved from Toledo to Memphis in Tennessee, where he attendedhigh school, but he was not a good student. His only real interest was singing. He began to sing inthe style that is called“ country and western”.In 1955 he recorded some songs for his mother ’ s birthday. The people at the recording studioliked his singing and his music. It was country and western music, but it also sounded a little likethe music which black people used to sing in the American South. It was called“ blues”.Shortly after that, Elvis met Tom Parker, who became his manger and arranged concerts forhim across the United States and new recording as well. Soon Elvis became famous around thecountry. Later Elvis went to Hollywood and began to appear in films such as Love Me Tenderand King Creole.But Elvis found it difficult to live with success, Like many other famous people, he began to takedrugs and his health started to suffer. When he died at an early age of 42 in 1977, millions ofhis fans were shocked,“ The King Is Dead!” the newspaper said. But today his memory and his music live on and will always be remembered as the King of Rock’ n’ roll.24.From the passage, we can see ____________.A. the church songs didn’ t help Elvis develop his own style.B. . Elvis didn ’ t get any help from his parentsC the church songs helped Elvis develop his singingD. Elvis forgot his church music at a later age.25.Who was Tom Parker?A. Elvis’ manager.B.

His taking the drugs.27.What was Elvis ’ music style like most?A. Only country and western.B. Not only country and western but also a bit“ blues”.C. Both western and church music.D. Only country and blues.CFor most teachers, a day never seems long enough to get all the planning, teaching or paper correcting done. Parent volunteers, if available, can do a lot of help.Teachers can benefit from such help. New books can be marked Computers can be turned onor shut off properly. Teaching equipment can be cleaned and stored away. The list of jobs thatparent volunteers can do is endless. Some schools even provide a coordinator( 协调者 ) to introducethese volunteers to teachers.It is important to make sure volunteers feel useful and are given a variety of tasks to do. When a volunteer realizes there is no real contribution to make, he or she will not come back. Sometimes being given too many boring repetitive tasks drives volunteers away, too.A teacher who wants to use the service of volunteers successfully should give time to the planning of tasks. Make a list of possible tasks for the volunteer to do. The tasks can be kept in a notebook. Information such as class schedule, names of students and school rules could also be included in the notebook. When the volunteer arrives, the teacher may not immediately have an opportunity to explain tasks. The volunteer can then check the notebook and pick a job on hisor her own decision.It is obvious that the class benefits from having adults. Children often behave better with the volunteer near them. Some volunteers work one-on-one with children or with small groups, helping children get needed attention. The volunteer can complete paper correcting or other tasks listed above, freeing the teacher for more teaching time.Meanwhile, parent volunteers do need to understand that any information about children is to remain confidential. They should be coached on appropriate methods in a school system. They especially need to be careful of what they say.28.The first two paragraphs imply that ________.A.teachers should ask parents for help in classB.parents are unavailable to teachers in most schoolsC.parent volunteers are really needed in schoolsD.being a parent volunteer is popular in many schools29.In order to keep parent volunteers interested, ________.A.tasks given to them should be considered carefullyB.teachers shouldn’ t give them premising tasksC.schools should pay them for their good servicesD.a coordinator is necessary in every school30.Why should a teacher list possible tasks in a notebook?A.Parent volunteers are interested in the tasks listed.B.It is necessary for parent volunteers to know all the tasks to do in classC.The teacher wants parent volunteers to choose jobs on their own.D..It is helpful for parents to get involved in their jobs quickly.31.Which of the following statements is True according to the text?A.Parents can enter any classroom if they like.B. Any information about children should be kept secret.C. Parent volunteers shouldn’ t ask for special training.D. Parent volunteers can help all children get needed attention.DChina has a long tradition of respecting education. But its present education is not thatrespectable.According to the Hurun Reported, which conducted one-on-one interviews with 980 wealthyChinese people with net assets of more than 60 million yuan($9.5 million) in 18 mainland citiesfrom May to September, about 14 percent of them said they had either already moved overseasor had applied to do so, and another 46 percent said they planned to emigrate within three years.All cited the higher-quality education available for their children overseas as the reason.Such a mindset has resulted in a growing number of Chinese students studying abroad.To befair, our primary and high schools are a leader in content throughout the world. The Program forInternational Student Assessment last year offered a feather in the cap for our education.Participating in the program administered by the Organization for Economic Cooperation andDevelopment, teenagers in Shanghai were far in advance of their ages from 64 countries, includingthe United States, in reading literacy, mathematics and science.So why does education in this country leave so many wealthy parents cold?Children in China have no say in what they learn.
