AFriends play an important role in our lives, and although we can’t be more familiar with the fact of friendship, we often don’t clearly understand how we make friends, especially with Americans. Here are some pieces of advice on making friends with Americans:1. Visiting places Americans enjoy: parties, churches, restaurants, parks and sports clubs.2. Be willing to take the first step. Don’t wait for them to get close to you. Americans in China may not know you speak English. They may be uncomfortable if they can’t speak your language.3. Use small talks to open the conversation.

Show an interest in their culture, their country or their job. Americans like to talk about themselves!5. Invite them to join you for dinner or just for coffee or tea. Try to set a specific(明确的)time. Americans sometimes make general invitations like “Let’s go out for dinner sometime. ”Often this is just a way to be friendly. It is not always a real invitation.6. Don’t expect too much at first.

Would you be willing to sleep in my room? It’s not exactly a suite(套间) , but it will be good enough to make you comfortable for the night.”As he paid his bill the next morning, the old man said to the clerk, “You are the kind of manager who should be the boss of the best hotel. Maybe someday I’ll build one for you.” The clerk looked at them and smiled. And the three of them had a good laugh.Two years passed. The clerk received a letter from the old man. It contained a ticket to New York, asking the young man to pay him a visit. The old man met the clerk and led him to the corner of Fifth Avenue and 34th Street.

If birds sing happily, it shows all is well in the forest: no predators (捕食者) are present, and the birds can feed, sing and do other bird things. The sound of a relaxed robin singing is easy to understand because it makes us feel this way too—it’s a sound that lifts our own hearts when we hear it.What happens when a predator comes into their areas? The nearby birds quickly give an alarm(警报) call, a short sound that warns, “Danger is coming!” On hearing the sound, the other birds stop singing and fly for cover, the deer lift their heads and stop moving and the rabbits run into the bushes. Suddenly, the forest becomes silent.When humans walk through the woods in a hurry or while talking with a friend, we don’t see much wildlife. We may think that there aren’t many animals living there, but more likely, they know we are coming and hide minutes before our arrival. But if we learn to avoid setting off alarms, we can see many more wild animals without frightening them. To practice, find a place in a park and sit quietly for an hour. Take note as the birds begin to relax and sing again. When I do this, I am always surprised at the wonderful thing animals will do when humans simply stay still long enough.11.In the writer’s opinion, the children’s answers to his question are________.A. funnyB. reasonableC. honestD. important12. Hearing a bird’s alarm call, a deer will _________.A. run quickly into the bushesB. stand still with its head upC. lie down on the ground at onceD. act as if nothing has happened13. According to the author, why can’t we see much wildlife in the woods?A. Because we come at the wrong time.B. Because we fail to give warnings.C. Because we have set off alarms.D. Because few animals live there.14. The purpose of the last paragraph is to _______.A. advise people to enjoy the songs of birds.B. ask people to learn something about birds.C. tell people how to protect birds in the wild.D. show people how and when birds sing.15. What is the text mainly about?A. The life of birds.B. Birds in the forest.C. How birds sing in the forest.D. The messages in birds’ singing.二，七选五（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。

First, we must understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence(自信) and without hesitation(犹豫). Thirdly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar.There is no short way to succeed in language learning. A good memory(记忆) is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is no much use learning by heart long lists(一览表) of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language.

At this point a motor boat pulled up and someone called out, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?""No, thanks, I have faith in God and he will save me."Later a helicopter flew by, and Smith was now standing on the roof with water up to his neck. "Grab the rope, "shouted the pilot. "I’ll pull you up.""No, thanks," said Smith. "I have faith in God and he will save me. "But after hours of struggling with water, poor exhausted Smith drowned and went to his reward. As he arrived at the Pearly Gates, Smith met God and complained about this.

总分120分，考试时间100分钟。
第I卷第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题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。
AMore than 30,000 people went to the White House on Monday for the 136th Easter Egg Roll (复活节滚彩蛋). President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama held the event by inviting thousands of kids to color and look for eggs. The theme(主题) of the day was “Hop Into Healthy, Swing Into Shape.” It was part of the First Lady’s “Let’s Move!” program to reduce obesity rates (肥胖率) among American kids. Mrs. Obama spoke to young reporters about her goal(目标) to get children to eat right and keep moving.“We are working to make sure that kids born today grow up healthy, learn how to have balanced meals, and get more physical activity into their lives,” she said.Mrs. Obama said she wants children across the nation to understand that "exercise isn't just hard work, it's play. If you’re running around with your dog, you're getting exercise. If you w alk up the stairs, that's exercise, But if you’re sitting in front of the TV or on a computer game, you're not exercising.”The First Lady said that for kids who have balanced meals most of the time, having a special snack, like chocolate, will not hurt." And if you are active, you can splurge (挥霍) a little more," she said. Mrs. Obama’s favorite "splurge food" is French fries. But she balances her splurging by exercising almost every day. She loves to play tennis and she practices yoga.“A lot of kids look up to(敬仰) athletes, and I think it's important for athletes to share their good habits,” Mrs. Obama said. "Kids aren’t just going to wake up and be LeBron James. He's practicing and eating right and working out and training. Our athletes can be really good messengers to kids who look up to them--they can say to kids, 'If you really want to be like me, then you really do need to eat your vegetables.’”1.The purpose of the “Let’s Move!” program is to_______ .A. help kids keep healthyB. train more young reportersC. encourage kids to eat more eggsD. invite kids to visit the White House2.“Splurge food” is allowed to be eaten when__________ .A. you don' t hurt yourselfB. you have a special snackC. you never eat French friesD. you eat right and stay active3.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. All kids want to be LeBron James.B. It is very easy to form good habits.C. Athletes can set a good example for kids.D. Kids like the messages the athletes give them.BMark Twain left school when he was twelve. He had little school education. In spite of (尽管) this, he became the most famous writer of his time. He made millions of dollars by writing. His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain, his pen-name.Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mother's tender care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents.

In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876, and Huckleberry Finn in 1884, which made him famous, and brought him a great fortune (财富).Unfortunately, Mark Twain got into debts in bad investments (投资) and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts. In 1904, his wife died, and then three of their children passed away.At the age of 70, his hair was completely white. He bought many white suits and neckties.

Before coming here, China seemed alien to me ----a place that expected to be hugely dissimilar from my own British culture.After travelling from Beijing up to Xi'an, I wanted to challenge myself by choosing a smaller town----Xiahe in Gansu Province. I arrived in Lanzhou at around 5 am, but there were no buses toXiahe. I managed to spot a policeman and attempted to explain my destination to him in simple English, praying that he would understand. I wasn't sure that he did but I just followed him anyway as I had no choice. He took me on a bus and I didn't know where I was going. Luckily, I met a student who explained to me in English that the policeman was taking me to another bus station where I could take a bus to Xiahe. During this conversation a third man said he was also a policeman and would help me buy tickets. But as he was not in uniform, I was a little doubtful. The uniformed policeman told me it was OK to go with the third man, so I got off the bus with the so-called policeman who at this point, disappeared and I was left in the middle of nowhere. I stood panicking. Around one minute later a police car came and stopped right by me. It was the un-uniformed policeman. I got into the car and he dropped me directly at the bus station, and helped me buy the ticket.This is one of many experiences that I have had in China. I realized that however different this culture was, there was one thing that would always stand out—kindness. In the west we seem to lack the foundation of trust, yet in China it seems that there will always be someone to answer your questions and lead you the right way.12. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word "alien"?A. Unfriendly.B. Familiar.C. Strange.D. Attractive.13. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. The author doubted the so-called policeman.B. The third man could speak English fluently.C. The author followed a student to another bus station.D. A police car took the un-uniformed policeman away.14. Why did the un-uniformed policeman disappear after the author got off the bus?A. He hurried to buy a ticket for the author.B. He went to get a car to pick the author up.C. The author didn't behave in a friendly way.D. The author found a uniformed policeman to help him.15. According to the text, what impressed the author deeply in China?A. Beautiful scenes.B. Terrible transportation.C. Troubles in small towns.D. People's kindness.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。

第一卷第一部分阅读理解（共20小题；，每小题2分，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AWhen milk arrived on the doorstepWhen I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman sending milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a sending and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he sent more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would write a note—“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next sending”—and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically（魔术般）appear.All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn't freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home milk sending today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete (竞争). Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practiced to have a delivery service.Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch (门廊). Every so often ,my son's friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk. 1．Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer .A.to show his magical powerB.to pay for the deliveryC. to satisfy his curiosityD.to please his mother2．What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy's house?A.He wanted to have tea there.B.He was a respectable person.C.He was treated as a family member.D.He was fully trusted by the family.3．Why does home milk sending no longer exist?A.Nobody wants to be a milkman now.B.It has been driven out of the market.C.Its service is getting poor.D.It is forbidden by law.4．Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?A.He missed the good old days.B.He wanted to tell interesting stories.C.He needed it for his milk bottles.D.He planted flowers in it.BPop music is the name for different forms of popular, commercial(商业) music. It had its beginning in the USA and spread throughout the whole world during the 1950s and 1960s. It is widely liked by the young people. The best known early form of pop music was “rock-n-roll”; another was “blues”. A more recent development is “folk-rock”. Pop music has taken the place of native music in many parts of the world; it has caused the number of people for jazz to become much smaller than it was in the 1950s and earlier, and it has now begun to rule musical stage productions. It’s a big industry. Much pop music is without artistic value, but the work of some pop singers, e.g. the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the groups like Floyd and Crosby, Stills and Nash, is on a higher musical level. And there is still a great interest in it today. Pop music concerts and festivals are held all over the world.5. All of the following forms belong to pop music EXCEPT __________________.A. bluesB. rock-n-rollC. jazzD. folk-rock6. According to the article, the number of people for jazz in the 1950s and earlier was ___________ it is today.A. much greater thanB. much smaller thanC. as great asD. as small as7. Which of the following is TRUE?A. No pop music is on a high musical level.B. Much pop music is very artistic.C. Pop music is highly artistic.D. Not all pop music is without artistic value.8. “It is a big industry” means that _______________.A. it makes a lot of musical instruments (乐器)B. it is a big musical and commercial businessC. the pop singers are very hard-workingD. pop music is on a very high musical levelCModern life is impossible without traveling. The fastest way of traveling is by air. With a modern airliner you can travel in one day to places which it took a month or more to get to a hundred years ago.Traveling by train is slower than by air, but it has its own advantages. For example, you can see the country you are traveling through. Besides, modern trains have comfortable seats and dining cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable and comfortable.Some people prefer to travel by sea when possible. There are large liners and river boats. You can visit many other countries and different places. Traveling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday.Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day, just as you like. You can stop wherever you wish—where there is something interesting to see, at a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or at a hotel to spend the night. That is why traveling by car is popular for pleasure trips, while people usually take a train or a plane when they are traveling on business.9. From the passage, we know the fastest way of traveling is ______.A. by carB. by trainC. by airD. by sea10. If we travel by car, we can ______.A. make the longest journey enjoyableB. make our own timetableC. travel to a very far place in several minutesD. travel only fifty or one hundred miles a day11. The underlined word “They” in the second paragraph refers to ______.A. modern trains in the countryB. comfortable seats and dining carsC. the travelers on the modern trainD. the slower ways of traveling12.

嘉峪关市一中2016-2017学年第一学期期末考试高一英语试卷本试卷分为第Ⅰ卷和第II卷两部分。
全卷满分120分，考试时间100分钟。
第I卷第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。
AIt was a quarter past nine as Marie hurried into the office building where she would be working. Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided she would start out half an hour earlier the next day. Once inside the building, she had to stand at the lifts and wait several minutes before one arrived. When she finally reached the office marked “King Enterprises(公司)”, she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no answer. She tapped on the door again, but still there was no reply. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the door and went in. Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had had the interview with Mr. King, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardly looked like an office at all. The employees were just standing around chatting and smoking. At the far end of the room, somebody must have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her. Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others. Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any mind to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr. King, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realised that the day’s work in the office began just before Mr. King arrived. Later she found out that he lived in Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same train every morning, arriving in the office at 9:35, so that his staff knew exactly when to start working.1. Marie felt nervous when she knocked at the door because .A. she had never met the boss once beforeB. there was no answer from inside the officeC. she was afraid that she had gone to the wrong placeD. she was a little bit late for work2. The people in the office suddenly started working because .A. they saw a stranger in the officeB. the boss was about to arriveC. no one wanted to talk to MarieD. they had finished their morning break3. We can infer from the passage that the employees of the enterprise .A. would start their work day by listening to a jokeB. were considerate to newcomersC. lacked devotion to the companyD. were always punctual for work4. What is probably the best title for the passage?A. A Cold WelcomeB. Punctual Like a ClockC. An Unpunctual ManagerD. Better Late Than NeverBCoolest Hotels in the WorldAriau Amazon TowersThe Ariau Amazon Towers hotel lets you sleep in a tree house. Eight towers make up this hotel that offers over 300 rooms.

Propeller Island City Lodge.B. Ariau Amazon Towers.C. Bahama Beach Club.D. The Ice Hotel.CYou may not know a lot of people when you start high school. Even if you know some freshmen(新生), you still feel nervous that you don’t know any upper-classmen and teachers. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces?Most high schools hold a freshman training before school actually starts, which is helpful not only because you learn your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but also because you get to meet fellow freshmen. That way, when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognize a few familiar faces.When you talk to your new classmates, you’ll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are. They’re all new to the school and don’t know what to expect. Talking about a common concern with them can help you develop friendships.The work in high school is something freshmen are probably worried about. The work in high school builds on what you learned in middle school, giving you a more advanced knowledge of many subjects. So you may find you have more work to do or that it’s a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult, teachers can give you extra help.High school also has more extracurricular activities than middle school did such as clubs, music and theater groups and sports teams. This is a good time to explore your interests and try new things.High school gives you the chance to learn how to manage your time, to develop your social skills and interests, and more importantly to be more independent and responsible.9. What are freshmen probably worried about?A. The ability to make friends.B. The learning task.C. The relationship with teachers.D. The freshman orientation.10. Extracurricular activities mainly help students ________.A. build up healthy bodiesB. develop friendshipsC. develop their interestsD. improve their learning ability11. This passage is written for ________.A. freshmen at high schoolB. freshmen’s parentsC. middle school studentsD. upper-classmen in high schoolDIt seems that people are gradually losing their smartness as smartphones become increasingly important assistants in their lives. As we rely too much on technology instead of our brains, many people have lost three basic abilities.The first skill many people have lost is remembering phone numbers. Because phone numbers are stored in smartphone contacts, there’s now no need to dial a number or look at it again. This is fine until you need to call someone for help, only to find your phone is not around.And some people may also have lost their sense of direction because some apps can guide people anywhere they wan t. People get so dependent on them that when they can’t use their smartphones, they get lost and anxious.But the worst lost skills may be social ones, meaning that some people are becoming socially inept (无能的). People often bury themselves in their smartphones. As we’re too absent-minded by what’s happening in the virtual (虚拟的) some of us have lost conversational skills and sometimes can’t even tell whether a person is happy or not.Last August, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, studied 51 students aged 11 and 12 who had over five hours’ screen time every day. Their task was to tell the emotions of 48 pictures of faces that were happy, sad, angry or scared.The children made an average of 14.02 mistakes at the beginning. But after a five-day camp without electronic products, they made only 9.41 mistakes on average.Luckily, people still have a chance to get these abilities back. You should try to keep your parents’ numbers in mind for emergencies. You should also pay more attention to street signs and stores, which will help you to draw a mind map and stop you from getting lost. And the easiest solution to social skill loss is to take a break from electronic products.12. The underlined sentence in the second paragraph implies that ______.A. you are able to turn to others for helpB. you are unable to contact others without your smartphoneC. others are unable to get in touch with you by smartphoneD. others are able to call you anytime and anywhere13. The experiment shows that without electronic products, one could ______.A. tell different emotions immediatelyB. lose the sense of direction frequentlyC. recognize more facial expressions correctlyD. tell more pictures of faces easily14. Overusing smartphones, people will probably ______A. lose face-to-face communication skillsB. fail to find their destinationC. have no sense of numbersD. weaken their senses of hearing and sight15. What’s the writer’s attitude towards ele ctronic products?A. Objective.B. Optimistic.C. Supportive.D. Critical.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It was why Rowan’s mother, Julie Van Stone, said Joseph joined the Navy and went to MIT to get two Master’s degre es.While at school in Boston, he would often write to Rowan. Even when he left school and was driving back to Colorado, he would send postcards from each state he stopped in. Those postcards were sent in 2007. “I remember him saying he had sent 5 or 6, but Rowan had only got 3 or 4 in the mail. But I never thought anything of it,” Van Stone said.Those postcards and pictures are priceless memories for Van Stone and her son, especially after Joseph passed away from a rare brain disease. Rowan never had a chance to say goodbye. But, on Saturday, just days before the two-year anniversary of Joseph’s death, a postcard arrived in the mail. It arrived on March 11, 2015. The message read：“Hello from Pennsylvania. I love you, and I miss you so much. See you soo n. Love, Daddy.”Neither he nor his mother knows how it happened, and they may never know. But, they have their own ideas why. “I feel like that was the final goodbye that he didn’t get to say,” Van Stone said. Van Stone says Joseph’s last words to her bef ore he died were：“Everything is a circle. We will seeeach other again. All that matters is love.”4．What did Rowan’s dad do to make his son live well？A．He got many Master’s Degrees.B．He became a soldier in Navy.C．He kept writing to his son.

D．In New York.CYou may not know a lot of people when you start high school. Even if you know some freshmen, you still feel nervous that you don’t know any upper-class men and teachers. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces？Most high schools hold a freshman orientation before school actually starts, which is helpful not only because you learn your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but also because you get to meet fellow freshmen. That way, when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognize a few familiar faces.When you talk to your new classmates, you’ll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are.

We think that they sound low-class, but secretly we think they sound cool. These are just old beliefs about British and American English, but there is some truth in them.What is certainly true is that the differences between British and American English continue to interest us.When the US was only about 20 years old, people were already saying that British accents sounded more intelligent，according to Erin Moore’s book That’s Not English：Britishisms, Americanisms, and What Our English Says About Us.However, there are many different accents in Britain-Moore says the UK may have just as many regional accents as the US, even though the population is almost one-fifth the size. In the UK, accents have a lot to do with class, but to many Americans, even an accent that British people think is “low class” is thought of as intelligent and better, according to MPR New s.American slang(俚语) has been part of British people’s vocabulary for a long time-the number of American television, movies and music enjoyed in the UK means that British people have been using words like “cool” and “awesome” for years now. But sometime s words from theUK make it to the US-like “gobsmacked”.“Gobsmacked” started as slang from northern England. “Gob” means mouth, so the word means “surprised as if someone smacked you in the mouth”. Reality television brought it to the US, Moore said. When the singer Susan Boyle became famous for her unlikely great singing voice on the show Britain’s Got Talent, she used it all the time. “I’m gobsmacked,” she repeated, and it got popular.“Americans love a colorful piece of slang as much as anyone else,” said Moore.

（每小题2分，共30分）AWill it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class.Opposite to what many people believe, if you don't eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.1. During the test, those who were tested were given ________.A. no breakfast at allB. very rich breakfastC. little food for breakfastD. different breakfast or none2. The results of the test show that ________.A. breakfast has great effect on work and studiesB. breakfast has little to do with a person's workC. a person will work better if he has a simple breakfastD. those working with brains should have much for breakfast3.

Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A. Poor breakfasts affect those who work with brains.B. Morning diet may not cause one to get fatter.C.

Man wants to make money from trees, so he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. And al so, he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees. The results are even worse: for where there are trees, their roots (根) break up soil to make the rain in and also bind the soil, thus stopping it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing is left but useless desert.5.The most important points of trees to man is ________.A. they help him to make moneyB. they give him coolC. they give him wood and other thingsD. they help him to stop drought and floods6.In many places forests slowly disappear because ________ .A. many trees have been cut down by manB. new trees are not well looked afterC. man has not paid enough attention to planting treesD. all the abovend becomes desert after all trees are cut down because ________ .A. roots of trees break up the soilB. there are no longer trees to keep the rain and protect the top-so il.C. strong winds bring a lot of sandD. there ar e too many rainfalls8.Which is the best title for the passage?A. T rees and manB. How to plant treesC. How do people do with Trees?D.

Britney Spears from Kentwood, a small town in Louisiana, is only 20 years old. She is a world famous film star with not only $30 million but also a $2 million house in LA. At her young age, she can look after her family financially (经济上) all her life. This year is a big year for Britney. She is now on a 31-day tour (巡演) of the US and every concert is a sell-out. That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000 people every time. It’s a tiring schedule but brings her a lot. When touring, she goes to bed around 1 a.m. and then has a lie-in until 1 p.m. the next day. Her philosophy (人生观) is to take care of the body and relax but always makeBritney is not pleased with only touring and selling nearly 40 million records so she decided to step into the movie business and try a bit of acting. She made an appearance in “Austin Power 3” this year and she is filming a movie that will come out in March 2017. In this movie, she has a starring role.For Britney, acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic (热心的) about it all.

Haven’t you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes ( 加工) information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles（肌肉）.The study also found the effect（作用） is greater when the younger people learn a second language. A team led by Dr. Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of British people who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of “earlyof later learners.Scans （扫描）showed that grey matter density (密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the later a person learned a new language, the smaller the difference.“Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,” said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.13.The main subject talked about in this passage is ________.A. science on learning a second languageB. man’s ability of learning a second languageC . that language can help brain powerD. language learning and maths studyA. a researcher on language learningB. a native language learnerC. a person who can speak two l anguagesD. an active language learner15.
