It’s about a doctor who creates a new man from the body parts of dead people and brings it to life. But the experiment goes wrong and the monster(怪兽) kills the doctor and many others. The story has been read by millions since it was first published and in the last hundred years it has been made into dozens of movies. Many people are surprised to learn its writer was a 19-year-old woman, called Mary Shelley.Mary was born into a rich London family in August 1797. She was educated by her parents and when she was 13 she decided to become a writer. In 1812, she met the famous writer Percy Shelley and they soon got married. Sadly for Mary, their first child died soon after birth in Italy. In her diary, Mary wrote about a dream: “I dreamt that my little baby came to life again--- that it had only been cold and that we rubbed it before the fire and it lived.”In 1816, Percy Shelley and 19-year-old Mary visited the poet Lord Byron at his home in Switzerland. Because of the bad weather they stayed indoors reading horror stories. One night, Byron asked everyone to write their own story. Mary thought of her dream and wrote the story Frankenstein.Frankenstein was published when Mary was 21, and became a huge success. Many people didn’t think a 19-year-old woman could write so well and believed her husband was the real writer.Although famous, Shelley’s life was full of sadness. Only one of her four children lived and in 1822 her husband died in a swimming accident. Mary was broken-hearted and decided not to marry again. She devoted herself to her child and continued to write until her death in1851.51. What do we know about the story Frankenstein?A. It was really written by Mary Shelley’s husband.B.

She was educated at her local school.D. She became very rich because of the story Frankenstein.(C)I am a professor of sports and exercise so I often deal with nervousness in my research with sports people. Actually, most people experience nervousness at some time or another.If you are feeling anxious, my advice is to first find the cause or causes. Make a list of those things that are making you nervous and work out which ones you can do something about. Focus all of your efforts on managing the causes that you can control.Most people cannot tell the difference between controllable (可控制的) and uncontrollable causes, so things they can’t control become a big reason for nervousness. Dealing with this is very important if people want to keep a healthy mind.Simply try to accept the uncontrollable causes of nervousness. You might be worried about the weather on a big day, an accident or an attack on the train, or perhaps just things that other people are doing at work. The results may be very important but there is still no use worrying because you can’t control any of these things. Accept that you can’t control everything. Once you understand this, it becomes easier not to worry.If a situation, such as swimming, is causing you to be anxious, try to face it as often as possibly so that you can get used to it.It can often help to think about yourself doing the thing that makes you nervous--- then close your eyes and imagine it going well. Imagine how the flight or job interview is going to happen so that you can get used to it. This will help you understand that the thing you fear most is probably not going to happen.56. Who wrote this passage?A. A reporter.B. A sportsman.C. A patient.D. A professor.57. The writer thinks there is no use worrying about some causes of nervousness because ______.A. most are not very important.B. they are not the real causes of the problem.C. they cannot be controlled by people.D. it’s better to deal with one cause at a time.58. If swimming makes you nervous, what should you do according to the writer?A. Go swimming often to get used to it.B. Avoid going to the swimming pool.C. Find a swimming teacher.D. Imagine watching others swim.59. What is true about nervousness according to the passage?A. It usually has only one cause.B. It is usually caused by people.C. People can easily manage it.D. Most people suffer from it.60. What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To introduce the writer’s sports experience.B. To advise on how to deal with nervousness.C. To help people remember their fears.D. To explain the dangers of nervousness.(D)Welcome to the 2012 London Olympic Games!Archery Archery has a 10,000-year history, when bows and arrows were first used for hunting and war.Archery first appeared at the Paris Olympics of 1900.

Sadly for Mary, their first child died soon after birth in Italy. In her diary, Mary wrote about a dream: “I dreamt that my little baby came to life again—that it had only been cold and that we rubbed it before the fire and it lived.”In 1816, Percy Shelley and 19-year-odl May visited the poet Lord Byron at his home in Switzerland. Because of the bad weather they stayed indoors reading horror stories. One night, Byron asked everyone to write their own story. Mary thought of her dream and wrote the story Frankenstein.Frankenstein was published when Mary was 21, and became a huge success.

Actually, most people experience nervousness at some time or another.If you are feeling anxious, my advice is to first find the cause or causes. Make a list of those things that are making you nervous and work out which ones you can do something about. Focus all of your efforts on managing the causes that you can control.Most people cannot tell the difference between controllable(可控制的) and uncontrollable causes, so things they can control become a big reason for nervousness. Dealing with this is very important if people want to keep a healthy mind.Simply try to accept the uncontrollable causes of nervousness. You might be worried about the weather on a big day, an accident or an attack on the train, or perhaps just things that other people are doing at work. The results may be very important but there is still no use worrying because you can’t control any of these things. Accept that you can’t control everything. Once you understand this, it becomes easier not to worry.If a situation, such as swimming, is causing you to be anxious, try to face it as often as possible so that you can get used to it.It can often help to think about yourself doing the thing that makes you nervous—then close your eyes and imagine it going well. Imagine how the flight or job interview is going to happen sothat you can get used to it. This will help you understand that the thing you fear most is probably not going to happen.1. Who wrote this passage?A. A reporter.B. A sportsman.C. A patient.D. A professor.2. The writer thinks there is no use worrying about some causes of nervousness because____.A. most are not very importantB. they are not the real causes of the problemC. they cannot be controlled by peopleD. it’s better to deal with one cause at a time3. If swimming makes you nervous, what should you do according to the writer?A. Go swimming often to get used to it.B. Avoid going to the swimming pool.C. Find a swimming teacher.D. Imagine watching others swim.4. What is true about nervousness according to the passage?A. It usually has only one cause.B. It is usually caused by people.C. People can easily manage it.D. Most people suffer from it.5. What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To introduce the writer’s sports experience.B. To advise on how to deal with nervousness.C. To help people remember their fears.D. To explain the dangers of nervousness.DWelcome to the 2012 London Olympic Games!Archery Archery has a 10,000 year history, when bows and arrowswere first used for hunting and war.Archery first appeared at the Paris Olympics of 1990.

Somesuggested solutions to these problems include a reduction in the use of private cars and an increasein the practice of car-pooling, where one car is shared by several workmates or friends. In addition,the government could improve the public transport system in order to make it more convenient forpeople. The government should also encourage cycling by building more green lanes. This willhelp save money, time and energy as well as improve the environment.Version 2The problems of traffic jams and air pollution have aroused increasingattention recently.Some of the possible solutions to these problems are as follows. First, car owners could share theircars with their friends and workmates, thus reducing the use of private cars. S econd, thegovernment could make it more convenient for its citizens to use public transportby improvingthe public transport system and encourage cycling by building more green lanes. By taking theabove measures, we could surely save money, time and energy as well as improve t heenvironment.第二节任务型写作Version 1In his speech Li Hua spoke of an overseas Chinese student who couldn’t find a job becauseof his dishonesty. The story shows us that honesty really is the best policy.After reading this speech, I felt really sorry for the student who had thrown away his years ofhard work, great academic achievements and a promising future just for some short-term benefits.Now, he knows better than anyone that dishonesty costs dearly.My classmate Wang Tao once made a similar mistake. During a math quiz, he was havingtrouble working out a problem. When the teacher looked away, he peeked and copied the answerfrom his classmate. He was glad that he had a high mark in the quiz. But when he came across asimilar question in the final exam, he didn’t know how to solve it and eventually failed the test.While dishonesty helped him in the short term during the quiz, it hurt him in the long termbecause he didn’t revise that typeof problem for the final exam. I shall always remember thislesson and be an honest person.Version 2Today I read an instructive speech, in which the speaker argues honesty is the best policy bytelling the story of an overseas Chinese student who couldn’t find a job because of his dishonesty.After reading this speech, I felt really sorry for the student who had ruined his own promisingfuture just for some short-term benefits. On the other hand, I also thought it was correct to punishsomeone who had been dishonest.I once read another story about dishonesty. In that story the author found himself alone in hisheadmaster’s office, where he accidentally found the writing contest paper. He was going to takepart in the competition and so couldn’t resist the temptation to read it. As he prepared wellbeforehand, he won the first prize in the contest. But instead of feeling happy and proud, he feltguilty. This feeling started the moment he decided to read the paper and it followed him all hislife.From these stories, I really learned the lesson that honesty is the best policy. In life we areoften tempted to be dishonest, but for a happy and guilt-free life we know what the best choice is.2011广州市普通高中毕业班综合测试-英语(一模)深度点评完形填空本次完形填空难度较大,原因在于内容比较抽象,理解需要一定时间。

It’s about a doctor who creates a new man from the body parts of dead people and brings it to life. But the experiment goes wrong and the monster(怪兽) kills the doctor and many others. The story has been read by millions since it was first published and in the last hundred years it has been made into dozens of movies. Many people are surprised to learn its writer was a 19-year-old woman, called Mary Shelley.Mary was born into a rich London family in August 1797. She was educated by her parents and when she was 13 decided to become a writer. In 1812, she met the famous writer Percy Shelley and they soon got married. Sadly for Mary, their first child died soon after birth in Italy. In her diary, Mary wrote about a dream: “I dreamt that my little baby came to life again—that it had only been cold and that we rubbed it before the fire and it lived.”In 1816, Percy Shelley and 19-year-odl May visited the poet Lord Byron at his home in Switzerland. Because of the bad weather they stayed indoors reading horror stories. One night, Byron asked everyone to write their own story.

Actually, most people experience nervousness at some time or another.If you are feeling anxious, my advice is to first find the cause or causes. Make s list of those things that are making you nervous and work out which ones you can do something about. Focus all of your efforts on managing the causes that you can control.Most people cannot tell the difference between controllable(可控制的) and uncontrollablecauses, so things they can’s control become a big reason for nervousness. Dealing with this is veryimportant if people want to keep a healthy mind.Simply try to accept the uncontrollable causes of nervousness. You might be worried about the weather on a big day, an accident or an attack on the train, or perhaps just things that other people are doing at work. The results may be very important but there is still no use worrying because you can’t control any of these things. Accept that you can’t control everything. Once youunderstand this, it becomes easier not to worry.If a situation, such as swimming, is causing you to be anxious, try to face it as often aspossible so that you can get used to it.It can often help to think about yourself doing the thing that makes you nervous—then close your eyes and imagine it going well. Imagine how the flight or job interview is going to happen so that you can get used to it. This will help you understand that the thing you fear most is probablynot going to happen.1. Who wrote this passage?A. A reporter.B. A sportsman.C. A patient.D. A professor.2.

If swimming makes you nervous, what should you do according to the writer?A. Go swimming often to get used to it.B. Avoid going to the swimming pool.C. Find a swimming teacher.D.

My family won a prize –tickets for a round-world-trip on the Freedom of the Seas! Can you believe it? This is one of the biggest cruise ships in the world –it‘s huge! It‘s as long as 37 buses and can carry more than 4,000 passengers. That‘s a lot of people!You know that I like to be very active, so at first I thought this cruise was going to be a little boring … I was so wrong! The ship has an ice-skating rink, an outdoor climbing wall (more than 13 metres high), two swimming pools, a water park and even a boxing ring. But best of all …the Flowrider! It‘s a surfing attraction at the top of the ship. I tried it yesterday but I kept falling! I must try again this afternoon.Mom and Dad were also pretty impressed by the shopping mall on the ship. You‘ve really got to see this wonderful ship –it‘s truly spectacular. I‘ll write again w hen I get home (Sunday) and tell you more about the cruise.Bye!Anne46.The Freedom of the Seas is___________.A. a ship with 40,000 passengersB. as long as 37 busesC. a water parkD. a shopping mall47.Anne will goon surfing on ___________afternoon.A.

Some younger kids may have them because their parents see it as a matter of safety and convenience. For example, a kid can call mom and dad when sports practice is over. And a cell phone can give kids almost instant access(快捷通道) to their parents if something goes wrong or they need help. It can give parents quick access to their kids so they can check on them and make sure they‘re OK.If you do get a cell phone, make some rules with your parents, such as how many minutes you‘re allowed to spend on the phone, when you can use your phone, when the phone must be turned off, and what you will do if someone calls you too often, and so on. You‘ll also have to learn to take care of the phone in your life. Keep it charged(充电) and sto re it in the safe place so it doesn‘t get lost. And whatever you do, don‘t use it in the bathroom.
