高中英语真题：2016-2017学年高二上学期期末考试英语试题Word版.doc一、阅读理解(共4题)1.When The New Republic magazine predicted who would win the 2016 Nobel Prize in literature on Oct 6, it said: “Not Bob Dylan. That’s for sure.”But the award came as a surprise to many. On Oct 13, the famous US musician was named the Nobel laureate by the Swedish Academy. He has “created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition", according to the organization.Although Dylan, 75, is not really thought to be a literary（文学的）writer, he has given the world a lot of creative work over 50 years, especially when it comes to his folk songs.In his 1985 album Biograph, Dylan wrote about the appeal(魅力) of folk music to him. Rock songs “weren’t serious enough or didn’t reflect（反映）life in a realistic way", according to Dylan. But folk, was “a more serioustype of thing. The songs are filled with more sadness; more joy …much deeper feelings".Dyla n’s music and lyrics spoke to many people during the 1960s. His lyrics were often about great political issues, such as the civil rights movement. The 1960s were a time of change when the young were making sure that their voices were heard. The idea is mast famously expressed in Dylan's The Times They Are a -Changin (1964), which warns the world, “You better start swimming or you'll sink（下沉）like a stone. For the times they are a-changin!”There were complaints that a literary prize had been given to a singer. But ancient “Greek poets Homer and Sappho wrote poetic works that were meant to be listened to, that were meant to be performed, often with instruments - and it s the same way with Dylan ",the Swedish Academy’s permanent secretary Sara Danius told CNN.It could even be said that giving the important prize to Dylan has brought back an old literary tradition. The millions whose lives Dylan’s words and music have changed will surely welcome the award.21. Dylan found folk music attractive because___________•A. it brought joy to peopleB. it reflected life on a much deeper levelC. it could be used to express feelings freelyD. it needed more creativity than other types of music22. Which of the following statements is TRUE about Dylan according to the article?A. He never thought that he would win the Nobel Prize.B. All of his influential works were created in the 1960s.C .His songs expressed people’s feelings well during the 1960s.D. His fans were mostly young people who were active in political movements.23. According to the last two paragraphs, ______________.A .lyrics can be seen as a literary formB. a literary prize should not be given to a singerC. Dylan’s works were inspired by Greek poetsD .Dylan won the award because he influenced many song-writers24. What’s the author’s attitude toward giving Bob Dylan the 2016 Nobel Prize in literature?A. Unconcerned.B. Objective.C. Doubtful.D. Supportive.2.Books have tremendous power. Between their pages, readers can be transported to anywhere imaginable and become just about anyone or anything. Unfortunately, many children all over the world don’t have access to books.For several years now, Maria Keller, a 14-year-old girl from Minneapolis, Minnesota, has been changing that fact.When she was 8 years old, Maria already loved reading. She also noticed that some of her classmates didn’t read as much as she did. When she asked her mother why that could be, her mother said that they might not be able to afford books. Maria had never thought of this. She could not believe that some children might not have bedtime stories read to them. She became determined to change this.With her mother’s help, Maria created Read Indeed. Read Indeed is a non-profit organization aiming to collect and distribute(分发) books to children in need. During the early stages of Read Indeed, Maria set the goal to collect and distribute 1 million books by the time she was 18. It didn’t take long to reach that goal.Today, at age 14, she has collected over 1.8 million books and hasshipped them to many states and countries around the world. She says, “I cannot live without books. As I continue my mission, I have learned that the number of kids who have no books are in the hundreds of millions. So I just can’t give up, even after reaching my original goal of 1 million books distributed.”She recently set a new goal: to distribute donations to kids in need in every state in the United States, and every country in the world. She keeps track of her progress on a large map at the warehouse(仓库) where they store and sort books. Maria believes that she can get support from even more people and help kids around the world to become better readers!25. We can know from Paragraph 2 that .A. Some of Maria’s classmates had no textbooks.B. Some of Maria’s classmates didn’t have money to buy books.C. Some of Maria’s classmates didn’t like reading at all.D. Some of Maria’s classmates couldn’t afford to go to school.26. According to the passage, which statement about Read Indeed is true?A. It collects and gives out books to poor children.B. It is an organization which sells books to children around the world.C. It raises money to buy books for children.D. It is a campaign which encourages children to read.27. What can we infer from what Maria says in Paragraph 4?A. She lives on selling books.B. Her original dream has been achieved.C. She will give up her mission of distributing books.D. The number of children who have no books has greatly dropped.28. Which word can best describe Maria?A. Optimistic.B. Smart.C. Brave.D. Strong-willed.3.When we know somewhere well，w e say we “know it like the back of our hand”. But new research has shown that we don’t actually know as much about our hands as we think we do.Wider and shorterProfessor Matthew Longo at the University of London and his team did an experiment, covering the left hands of 100 people. Then they asked the people to point to where they thought their fingertips and knuckles (指关节）were. They made some quite big mistakes.“People think their hand is wider than it actually is,” said Longo. The fingers also seem shorter than they are. This mistake gets worse as you go across the hand from the thumb to the little finger.Sense of position"It is connected to our sense of position,” explained Longo. This is our ability to tell where different parts of o ur bodies are, even when we can’t see them. “It tells us whether a joint is straight .or not "he said. It also tells us whether we are going up or down in an elevator. All this information comes from signs from nerves in real time. It’s like our brain h as maps - maps that show the size and shape of our body. “This experiment tried to find those maps,” said Longo.Strength(强度) of feelingBut these maps make mistakes. These mistakes may be made because of how the brain understands different parts of t he skin. “Our brains ‘see” areas as larger where the skin feels touch strongly,” said Longo. Body parts don’t appear as their true size, but appear bigger or smaller depending on how strongly they feel touch. Our lips, for example, have more nerves than our nose. So brain “sees” lips on its map of the body as being bigger than our nose. The same thing happens for other parts of the body that have lotsof nerves.Longo believes that more research in this area may help us to understand eating problem better, because people suffering from these problems may not know their bodies properly.29. Which of following statement is TRUE about the experiment according to the article?A. People think their body parts are larger than they actually are.B. People made more mistakes about their little fingers length than their thumbs’ length.C .People’s fingers are actually shorter than they think.D. People were asked to draw their hands from memory30. What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. The new experiment.B. The location information.C. The mistake people made.D. The sizes of fingers and hands.31. We can learn from the article that_____________.A. the maps of people’s bodies form before they are bornB. the maps of our body are based on information from nervesC. our sense of position tells how different parts of the body work.D. how we feel about our body shape is only decided by our sense of position32. We can infer from the article that .A. the hand feels touch more strongly than fingers doB. our lips have a weaker sense of touch than our noseC. there are more nerves in the finger than in the handD. our sense of position should not be trusted because it is too often incorrect4.It’s an ordinary morning，like all the others．But instead of being woken up by the buzzing of an alarm cl ock, you’ll be roused by the smell of freshly made coffee，light entering your room as the curtains open automatically，and a gentle back massage（按摩）provided by your high-tech bed.This is what a typical(典型的) person's life will be like two decades from now，according to The Guardian. Want to know more?After you get up, your apartment will be like an electronic orchestra with you as the conductor. With simple moves of your hand and spoken instructions, you’ll be able to control your apartment’s tempera ture, humidity, music and lighting. You’ll be able to look through the day’s news on translucent screens while your breakfast waits for you in the automatic oven.As you move into your kitchen, you might accidentally hit your toe on a cupboard. If you do, you’ll grab your cell phone and open the diagnostics(诊断) app. Inside your phone there will be a tiny microchip(芯片) that uses X-ray waves to scan your body. The scan will tell whether your toe is bruised or broken.After breakfast, your driverless car will take you to work. While you “drive”, your central computer system will suggest a list of chores(家务事)that your housekeeping robots can do that day and it will also remind you to buy a gift for your mother’s upcoming birthday.As you can see, with the help of advanced technology, our lives will be more efficient(有效率的). Technology will mitigate our forgetfulness and free us of many small burdens that distract us, such as buying a ticket. Our brain will therefore be able to focus on more important things like preparing for a presentation or doing “deep thinking”.However, the development of technology might have some disadvantages as well. By 2036, we’ll be relying heavily on the virtual(虚拟的)world, which will mean that all of our data will be stored in the cloud，a remote digital storage system with near limitless capacity(容量). That will increase the possibility of someone else accessing, sharing or manipulating(操控) our personal information.33. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To stress the importance of developing technology.B. To remind people not to depend too much on computers．C. To introduce one new invention that will benefit our future lives.D. To describe how advanced technologies will affect our future lives.34. According to the text, in two decades, .A. you’ll be able to rely on an electronic orchestra to wake you up instead of an alarm clockB. a tiny microchip in your phone will treat you when you are sickC. you will be able to adjust the conditions of your apartment via oral instructions or simple hand gesturesD. technology will be smart enough to help us with important things like preparing for a presentation35. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in Paragraph 6 mean?A. Make up for.B. Worsen.C. Cure.D. Take advantage of.二、未分类(共2题)1.Have you ever heard of an insect called the cicada(蝉)? 36 But theyhave an interesting internal clock that tells them when to go aboveground.Every 17 years, billions of the noisy Brood V cicadas(十七年蝉) will swarm(成群出现)to northeastern parts of the US, including New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania. 37 But there are usually a lot less of them compared to the Brood V cicadas.38 According to Discovery News, these insects started their lives in 1999. And as their 17-year life cycle comes to an end, they go aboveground when their underground homes get warmer 64 degrees Fahrenheit (about 18℃) to be exact.Then the females will lay hundreds of eggs in trees, and after about four to six weeks, the mother and father cicadas will die. 39While they can be kind of annoying, these insects don’t harm humans, but they do make a lot of noise during their time aboveground. 40 However, since there are so many of the 17-year cicadas, the amount of laid eggs can sometimes harm small trees and bushes. But after this summer, these insects will mostly mind their own business until 2033.A. That sound is the male cicadas attracting the female cicadas.B. The cicada insects are common in summer, especially in August and can be found in July as well.C. There are other kinds of cicadas that come around once a year or every 13 years.D. The baby cicadas will go underground, and the 17-year cycle will start over again.E. As a matter of fact, people like to eat them in some cultures.F. Well, a special kind of these insects live underground in the US for most of their lives.G. This is what makes Brood V cicadas so special.2.Do you find it hard to memorize words? You must not be the only one. It could be 61 (help) if you say the words aloud. But th is often isn’t good in a quiet classroom.Now, researchers from the University of Waterloo, Canada, have comeup 62 a new idea. They suggest 63 (draw) a picture of what you are trying to memorize!The researchers did a study 64 (base) on the idea. They first gave a group of students some words such as “apple” or “balloon”. Then they gave the students 40 seconds, during 65 the students could either write the words again and again, or draw a picture.When the time 66 (be) over, the researchers asked the students to do something else, like sing a song. After that , they gave the students 60 seconds to write down as many words 67 they could remember. The results showed that those who drew the words did a much 68 (good) job than those who wrote them.So the next time you are having a hard time memorizing a word, 69 (draw) it! No worries if you’re not good at drawing. The 70 (research) say the quality of the drawing doesn’t matter at all.三、完型填空(共1题)1.My husband, Rashid, arrived in New York on his own from India. He stayed in a 41 for a short time while 42 for a house for me and our children.During the first week of his 43 , he went out one day to do some shopping.

2016-2017学年高二（上）期末英语试卷第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）1．（8分）In Sweden，near a forest there is a lake in which the water is very clear．Everything here is quiet and still．On the far side of the water is some farmland and further away，across the field，is an old church built on a hill．It has just stopped raining．The brook flowing into the lake is full and there is still some half melted snow from last winter on the ground．The reason the water is so clear，and everything is so quiet and still，is that most of the plant and animal life in and around the lake is dead．There are no birds because all the fish and insects，which the birds need for food，have disappeared．Many trees in the forest are losing their leaves and bark，and are sick and dying．Others were blown down by the high winds of last winter．A farmer is working in a field planting something，but unless he plants a stronger kind of seed this year，the crop will be between 25to 40per cent lower than a few years ago．The stones of the old church tower are turning to powder and unless the tower is repaired soon，it will fall down．All the death and destruction in this place is caused by the smoke coming out of factories and poisonous gases from cars and trucks．And yet this silent lake is hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest factory and highway．1．What time of the year do you think it is？A．SpringB．SummerC．AutumnD．Winter2．Why are there no animals or birds in or around the lake？A．The weather is terribly cold．B．The lake is quiet．C．The area is polluted．D．They have all been killed．3．What can we know from the second paragraph？A．The soil becomes less and less because the wind is strong．B．The water in the lake is not polluted because it is clear．C．The trees are dying because the soil is dry．D．Few plants can grow because of the pollution．4．What do you think is the best title of the passage？A．A Beautiful Place of Interest．B．A Polluted Place in Sweden．C．A Quiet Place in Sweden．D．A Faraway Mountain Area．5．（8分）Helene An always told her five daughters that there was strength in unity （团结）when they were young．To show this，she held up one chopstick，representing one person．Then she easily broke it into two pieces．Next，she tied several chopsticks together，representing a family．She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks．This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up．Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California．However，when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975，they didn't have much money．They moved their family to San Francisco．There they joined Danny's mother，Diana，who owned a small Italian sandwich shop．Soon afterwards，Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant．The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young．However，Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard．Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves，but one by one，the daughters returned to work in the family business．They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles．Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other，they worked togetherto make the business successful．Daughter Elisabeth explains，"Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity，and to have unity we must have peace．Without the strength of the family，there is no business．"Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996，with three generations of Ans working together．Now the Ans'corporation makes more than $20 million each year．Although they began with a small restaurant，they had big dreams，and they worked together．Now they are a big success．5．Helene tied several

not finish their college education．B．They could not bear to work in the family business．C．They were troubled by disagreement among family members．D．They were influenced by what Helene taught them．8．What is the secret of Ans'big success？A．Family unityB．Hard workingC．IntelligenceD．Having a large family．9．（8分）We've all been blamed wrongly sometimes in our lives．How do we dealwith it？Not with anger，hurt and tears，but in a collected way…◇If you are wrongly blamed，let others know of the true state of things at once．Do it calmly and clearly﹣if you lose your temper，people will stop listening or become defensive．◇If you don't find a sympathetic ear，find a person who will hear you out﹣a teacher，a parent，a friend，or a brother or sister who believes in you．◇If you've been in trouble before，it may be easy for people to doubt you．So win your respect back in their eyes by behaving with honesty．◇If what you are blamed for is something unimportant，sometimes it's better to smile it off．◇If you've been blamed for something serious，it's important to put your side of the story forward quickly and truthfully．Just remember：◇Respect your friends'secret if you don't want to be wrongly blamed for making them known．◇Don't blame others without first getting proof of their wrong doing．◇Putting the blame on someone else for what you have done wrong is weakness．Admit your mistake quickly．◇If

the responsibility of your wrongdoingD．to find an excuse for your wrongdoing．13．（6分）In many countries there are different special customs when a child's baby teeth fall out．Many of these customs tell stories about animals taking the teeth．For example，Koreans have the custom of throwing the fallen tooth onto the roof of a house so that a magpie （喜鹊）can take the tooth away and bring a new tooth for the child．This custom is also followed by some other Asian countries，such as Japan and Vietnam．Other countries，though，have tooth customs about other animals．In Mexico and Spain，for example，it is thought that a mouse takes a fallen tooth away and leaves some money．But in Mongolia，it is dogs that take children's teeth away．Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture．It is believed that the new tooth will grow strong if the baby tooth is fed to a dog，so parents in Mongolia will put their children's fallen teeth in a piece of meat and feed it to a dog．In France and the USA，a child will put a fallen tooth under his or her pillow before going to bed．It is thought that in the early morning，when the child is still sleeping，the Tooth Fairy will take the tooth away and leave something else under the pillow．What she will leave is hard to know．It is said that in France the Tooth Fairy may leave some candies；however，in the United States，she may leave money．13．Koreans throw a tooth

the book we have to read may lack the attraction．Here are some tips on avoiding getting bored while reading．Try to step into the world of literature（文学）you are reading．（16）If the wind is blowing，imagine how the leaves move with each movement of air．Make your reading area unlike your sleeping area．If you sleep with the radio on，then shut it off．（17）Make the area you read in an area that feels almost uncomfortable to sleep in．This will keep you from becoming sleepy．（18）If you are reading for a book report，then take breaks from time to time to put what you are reading into some

sick and dying．Others were blown down by the high winds of last winter．A farmer is working in a field planting something，but unless he plants a stronger kind of seed this year，the crop will be between 25to 40per cent lower than a few years ago．The stones of the old church tower are turning to powder and unless the tower is repaired soon，it will fall down．All the death and destruction in this place is caused by the smoke coming out of factories and poisonous gases from cars and trucks．And yet this silent lake is hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest factory and highway．1．What time of the year do you think it is？AA．SpringB．SummerC．AutumnD．Winter2．Why are there no animals or birds in or around the lake？CA．The weather is terribly cold．B．The lake is quiet．C．The area is polluted．D．They have all been killed．3．What can we know from the second paragraph？DA．The soil becomes less and less because the wind is strong．B．The water in the lake is not polluted because it is clear．C．The trees are dying because the soil is dry．D．Few plants can grow because of the pollution．4．What do you think is the best title of the passage？BA．A Beautiful Place of Interest．B．A Polluted Place in Sweden．C．A Quiet Place in Sweden．D．A Faraway Mountain Area．【分析】本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了一个瑞典的被污染的地方，湖上或周围没有动物或鸟，植物也难以生长，呼吁人们保护环境．【解答】1．A．推理判断题．根据第一段The brook flowing into the lake is full and there is still some half melted snow from last winter on the ground可知这是春天；故选A．2．C．细节理解题．根据第三段All the death and destruction in this place is caused by the smoke coming out of factories and poisonous gases from cars and trucks可知湖上或周围没有动物或鸟因为这个地区被污染了；故选C．3．D．推理判断题．根据第二段A farmer is working in a field planting something，but unless he plants a stronger kind of seed this year，the crop will be between 25to 40per cent lower than a few years ago可知由于污染，很少有植物能在这里生长；故选D．4．B．推理判断题．根据第三段All the death and destruction in this place is caused by the smoke coming out of factories and poisonous gases from cars and trucks可知最佳标题为瑞典被污染的地方；故选B．【点评】考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．5．（8分）Helene An always told her five daughters that there was strength in unity （团结）when they were young．To show this，she held up one chopstick，representing one person．Then she easily broke it into two pieces．Next，she tied several chopsticks together，representing a family．She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks．This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up．Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California．However，when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975，they didn't have much money．They moved their family to San Francisco．There they joined Danny's mother，Diana，who owned a small Italian sandwich shop．Soon afterwards，Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant．The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young．However，Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard．Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves，but one by one，the daughters returned to work in the family business．They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles．Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other，they worked together to make the business successful．Daughter Elisabeth explains，"Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity，and to have unity we must have peace．Without the strength of the family，there is no business．"Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996，with three generations of Ans working together．Now the Ans'corporation makes more than $20 million each year．Although they began with a small restaurant，they had big dreams，and they worked together．Now they are a big success．5．Helene tied several chopsticks together to show B．A．the difficulty of growing upB．the strength of family unityC．the advantage of chopsticksD．the best way of giving a lesson6．We can I earn from Paragraph 2 that the An family C．A．started a business in 1975B．bought a restaurant in San FranciscoC．left Vietnam without much moneyD．opened a sandwich shop in Los Angeles7．What can we infer about the An daughters？DA．They did not finish their college education．B．They could not bear to work in the family business．C．They were troubled by disagreement among family members．D．They were influenced by what Helene taught them．8．What is the secret of Ans'big success？AA．Family unityB．Hard workingC．IntelligenceD．Having a large family．【分析】本文是一篇人物故事类阅读，属于记叙文，主要讲述了"一根筷子易折断，一捆筷子抱成团"，这就是团结的力量．来自越南的An家族正是靠着团结一心，在美国成就了一番大事业．【解答】5．答案：B．细节理解题．由文章第一段中的"she tied several chopsticks together，representing a family．She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks"可知，绑在一起的筷子显示了家庭团结的力量．故选B．6．答案：C．细节理解题．根据文章第二段中的"when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975，they didn't have much money"可知，一家人离开越南时，没有多少钱．故选C．7．答案：D．推理判断题．A项与文中事实"the girls all graduated from college"不符；B项"孩子们不能忍受在家族企业中工作"与她们都在为家族企业工作的事实不符．C项"她们被家庭成员间的分歧所困"，而文中事实是"Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other，they worked together to make the business successful"．D项"他们被海伦所教的影响"由文中的"Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity"推理可知．故选D．8．答案：A．细节理解题．由第一段中绑在一起的筷子预示着家庭团结的力量开始一直到最后一段，文章都在讲述一个主题﹣﹣家庭的团结造就了成功．故选A．【点评】本文是一篇人物故事类阅读，题目涉及多道细节理解题，推理判断题．做题时学生应仔细阅读原文，把握文章主要内容，联系文章上下文内容并结合所给选项含义，从中选出正确答案，一定要做到有理有据，切忌胡乱猜测．9．（8分）We've all been blamed wrongly sometimes in our lives．How do we deal with it？Not with anger，hurt and tears，but in a collected way…◇If you are wrongly blamed，let others know of the true state of things at once．Do it calmly and clearly﹣if you lose your temper，people will stop listening or become defensive．◇If you don't find a sympathetic ear，find a person who will hear you out﹣a teacher，a parent，a friend，or a brother or sister who believes in you．◇If you've been in trouble before，it may be easy for people to doubt you．So win your respect back in their eyes by behaving with honesty．◇If what you are blamed for is something unimportant，sometimes it's better to smile it off．◇If you've been blamed for something serious，it's important to put your side of the story forward quickly and truthfully．Just remember：◇Respect your friends'secret if you don't want to be wrongly blamed for making them known．◇Don't blame others without first getting proof of their wrong doing．◇Putting the blame on someone else for what you have done wrong isweakness．Admit your mistake quickly．◇If someone else is wrongly blamed，stand up for that person．◇Don't pass the responsibility to others9．The author of the passage mainly gives us some D．A．tips on how to apologizeB．ideas on how to get along with othersC．information on how to argue with othersD．advice on what to do when being blamed wrongly10．The underlined phrase"a sympathetic ear"refers to a person who B．A．thinks others are poor B．would like to listen to the truthC．likes listening to sad storiesD．is impatient when

wrongdoing．【分析】在生活中如果被误解了，你会如何应对？文章给出了一些建议．【解答】DBAC9．D 主旨大意题．根据文章开头We've all been blamed wrongly sometimes in our lives．How do we deal with it？用一个问句说明我们在被误解的时候该如何应对，故答案为D．10．B 细节题．根据后文的find a person who will hear you out﹣a teacher，a parent，a friend，or a brother or sister who believes in you．可知，当你被误解时，找一个愿意听事情真相的并且相信你的人，如父母、兄弟姐妹，所以a sympathetic ear指愿意听真相的人，故答案为B．11．A 细节题．从文章If you've been blamed for something serious，it's important to put your side of the story forward quickly and truthfully得知，当一些重要的事情你被误解时，要立即并且诚恳地向他人解释，故答案为A．12．C 细节推理．根据最后建议Don't pass the responsibility to others以及Admit your mistake quickly．可知，要及时承认错误并且不要把责任推给他人，故答案为C．【点评】文章考查细节题较多，建议考生在答题时带着问题去文章寻找答案，并注意小标题的作用．13．（6分）In many countries there are different special customs when a child's baby teeth fall out．Many of these customs tell stories about animals taking the teeth．For example，Koreans have the custom of throwing the fallen tooth onto the roof of a house so that a magpie （喜鹊）can take the tooth away and bring a new tooth for the child．This custom is also followed by some other Asian countries，such as Japan and Vietnam．Other countries，though，have tooth customs about other animals．In Mexico and Spain，for example，it is thought that a mouse takes a fallen tooth away and leaves some money．But in Mongolia，it is dogs that take children's teeth away．Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture．It is believed that the new tooth will grow strong if the baby tooth is fed to a dog，so parents in Mongolia will put their children's fallen teeth in a piece of meat and feed it to a dog．In France and the USA，a child will put a fallen tooth under his or her pillow before going to bed．It is thought that in the early morning，when the child is still sleeping，the Tooth Fairy will take the tooth away and leave something else under the pillow．What she will leave is hard to know．It is said that in France the Tooth Fairy may leave some candies；however，in the United States，she may leave money．13．Koreans throw a tooth onto the roof of a house in order to B．A．get money B．get a new tooth C．get candies D．feed magpies14．From the last paragraph，we can know that in France and the USA D．A．a child will put his or her fallen tooth beside the pillowB．the Tooth Fairy takes the fallen teeth away at midnightC．the Tooth Fairy will leave some candies to the children after taking the fallen teeth awayD．no one knows for sure what the Tooth Fairy will leave to the children after taking the fallen teeth away15．The passage is mainly about C．A．stories about some animalsB．stories about human teethC．customs about fallen teeth in different countriesD．customs about fallen teeth in western countries．【分析】本文是一篇说明文．本文主要讲述了小孩子掉落的牙怎么处理？有些国家扔在屋顶上，有些国家放在枕头下，不同的国家都有着不同的风俗．【解答】答案：BDC．13：B．细节理解题．根据Koreans have the custom of throwing the fallen tooth onto the roof of a house so that a magpie （喜鹊）can take the tooth away and bring a new tooth for the child．可知，韩国人把掉落的牙齿扔在屋顶上，这样喜鹊就能把牙齿衔走，然后带给孩子一颗新牙，故B选项正确．14：D．推理判断题．根据In France and the USA，a child will put a fallen tooth under his or her pillow 可知A错误，根据It is thought that in the early morning，when the child is still sleeping，the Tooth Fairy will take the tooth away可知B错误，根据It is said that in France the Tooth Fairy may leave some candies；however，in the United States，she may leave money可知在法国，牙齿仙女会留下糖果，在美国会留下钱，故C错误．所以，D选项"没人确定牙齿仙女会留下什么"这个答案符合题意．故D选项正确．15：C．主旨大意题．纵观全文以及根据第一段可知，这篇文章主要讲了不同国家对于脱落牙齿处理的不同风俗．故C选项正确．【点评】阅读理解考查对文章的理解能力．学生应先通读全文，看清题干你，仔细阅读选项，在文章找到正确答案．16．（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．Reading is a task that we all do either for enjoyment or education，but sometimes the book we have to read may lack the attraction．Here are some tips on avoiding getting bored while reading．Try to step into the world of literature（文学）you are reading．（16）G If the wind is blowing，imagine how the leaves move with each movement of air．Make your reading area unlike your sleeping area．If you sleep with the
