He nodded, and then showed me a plant on the counter. “I can give you this one for 35 cents.” he said,“ Aw, gee,” I protested, “it looks like a weed!” About 18 inches high, the plant was in a small pot covered with faded red paper.“Now trust me, boy —I promise that tomorrow morning when you get up, you will find your most beautiful flower.”said Mr. Rocco. I kn ew him to be a good honest man, so I agreed to take it.It was almost midnight when I arrived home. Mom was seriously sick and using the front bedroom.

It was just like Mr. Rocco said — the most beautiful flower I ever saw! When I looked at Mom, she was smiling as tears streamed down her cheeks. She held out her hand for me to come near, then pulled me close and hugged till it hurt. Then, remembering her contagious condition and that she wasn’t supposed to touch me, she quickly let me go.My dear Mom died the next night. The moment she hugged me turned out to be the most wonderful moment of my life. Not only had that beautiful plant helped show just how much I loved her, but I’d always know how much she loved me.1.

You listen to their conversation:“I can't believe it—Lorenzo Bertolla! They are almost impossible to find. Isn't it beautiful? And it's a lot cheaper than the one Sara bought in Rome.”They leave and you go over to see this incredible sweater. It's nice and the price is right. You've never heard of Lorenzo Bertolla,but those girls looked really stylish. They must know. So,you buy it. You never realize that those young women are employees of an advertising agency. They areactually paid to go from store to store,talking loudly about Lorenzo Bertolla clothes.Every day we notice what people are wearing,driving and eating. If the person looks cool,the product seems cool,too. This is the secret of undercover marketing. Companies from Ford to Nike are starting to use it.Undercover marketing is important because it reaches people that don't pay attention to traditional advertising. This is particularly true of the MTV generation—consumers between the age of 18 and 34. It's a golden group. They have a lot of money to spend,but they don't trust ads.So advertising agencies hire young actors to “perform” in bars and other places where young adults go. Some people might call this practice misleading,but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative. “Look at traditional advertising. Its effectiveness is decreasing.” It is true,because everyone knows an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something. However,you don't know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance.11.The two attractive young women were talking so as to ________.A.get the sweater at a lower priceB.be heard by people aroundC.be admired by other shoppersD.decide on buying the sweater12.Lorenzo Bertolla is ________.A.a very popular male singerB.an advertising agencyC.a clothing company in RomeD.the brand name of clothes13.What can we infer from the passage?A.Traditional advertising will soon disappear in the market.B.The MTV generation tends to be more easily influenced by all kinds of ads.C.Traditional advertising is becoming less effective because it is too direct.D.Undercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government.14.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A.Two Attractive ShoppersB.Lorenzo Bertolla SweatersC.Ways of AdvertisingD.Undercover MarketingB“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move,”said David Belle, the founder of parkour(跑酷).Do you love running? It is a good exercise, yet many people find it boring. But what if making your morning jog a creative one? Like jumping from walls and over gaps, and ground rolls? Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale? Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way. It is just because of Bond's wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.Yes, that's parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible, getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body. Parkour is considered an extreme sport. As its participants dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more than that.Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy(理念)behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life to reach the destination successfully. A parkour lover said, “I love parko ur because its philosophy has become my life, my way to do everything.”Another philosophy we've learnt from parkour is freedom. It can be done by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world. It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself. It is only a state of mind.It is when you trust yourself that you earn energy.15.Parkour has become popular throughout the world because of ________.A.its founder, David BelleB.the film, Casino RoyaleC.its risks and tricksD.the varieties of participants16.The underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________”.A.streets B.objectsC.barriers D.roofs17.Which of the following is true of parkour?A.It challenges human abilities.B.It is a good but boring sport.C.It needs special training.D.It is a team sport.18.As its participants move around a city, ________.A.they can ask for helpB.they may choose to escapeC.they should run to extremesD.they must learn to surviveⅢ.完成句子阅读下列各小题,根据每句后的汉语提示,用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。

It emphasizes and relies upon what is best in traditional independent school education: scholarly excellenc e supported by a caring and tutorial system, and a wideranging cocurricular programme.

The wellstocked library is open 7 days and 6 evenings per week. ICT facilities (including the Internet) are available for all and the wholeschool(studies within the houses as well as classrooms) is extensively networked.Pupils are offered extensive career advice throughout their time at King's.

Unit 2 The Olympic GamesⅠ.阅读理解Chinese tourists prefer hotels and restaurants that offer free Wi-Fi when traveling abroad.Most Chinese tourists instantly update their social networks using their mobile phones.They send photos and short videos to friends and family when traveling abroad.About 10 percent of outbound(出境的) Chinese tourists get expensive roaming charges(漫游费) by using 3G -powered smartphones.About 90 percent of Chinesetravelers consider Wi-Fi indispensable when traveling abroad.They often use phone apps to create travel routes and book hotels,which requires large data flows that can be expensive without Wi-Fi.But free Wi-Fi is not always available,even in regions with advanced telecommunications,such as the United States and Europe.Portable Wi-Fi costs 15-50 yuan a day,depending on the country.It’s cheaper in South Korea,Japan andThailand.The Wi-Fi services increase rapidly thanks to reasonable pricing and smooth surfing.Thus,a growing number of travel agencies begin to offer increasingly diverse Wi-Fi services.A travel website leases Wi-Fi transmitters that offer unlimited data for about 20 yuan a day on average in more than 100 countries.It plans to make mobile Wi-Fi an important part of its business model.Another travel website also launched a Wi-Fi phone service in 2013.More than 100,000 people used the service in 2014.More than 100 million Chinese went abroad last year,and the 10 percent who used Wi-Fi services spent an average of 150 yuan and it’s expected to grow largely.But the business may become out of date in five to eight years,for more locations are offering free Wi-Fi.In the meantime,it is reported that more for-profit models should be introduced and offer more services for outbound travelers in the future.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。

The Olympic Games李仕才一、阅读理解阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
For the growing number of Chinese heading west to work and study ,there's plenty they find surprising.Upon arrival in the West,many Chinese find they have to firstly put on the brakes.Li Yifeng,raised in northern China and now based in England,agrees.“The only thing Chinese people would be shocked by in Britain is how long it takes to do things,”he says.“For instance in China if you want to open a bank account,you don't wait,you just do it at the counter.”Outofhours and weekend work is standard in China,but in Britain, the weekend is for family and friends.Jack Chen,who left his homeland 12 years ago and is now a lawyer in Belgium says office politics are simpler in Europe, partly because the hierarchy(等级制度)is less rigid than in China,where the boss really is the boss and social class in the office is very obvious and important.As a result,staff in a Chinese company think very carefully about how to present their views and ideas.Employees in the West can share their opinions more freely.In China you should have the wisdom to say something in an appropriate way.But in Europe you can just say what you want.The newest Chinese arrivals have a very different view to previous generations,according to Sharon Jin,who moved to the US 20 years ago and is now an American citizen.“Almost 100% of people of my generation who came to the States want to get a green card,”she says.“But today younger Chinese plan to work for 10 years here and then return to Chi na to buy a house or look after their parents.”While a record number of 523,700 students left China to study elsewhere in 2015,roughly 70%~80%of students abroad have been returning in recent years because of the attractive job market at home,according to the Chinese Ministry of Education(CME).1.What do many Chinese find surprising while in Britain?A.That they drive faster than the drivers in Britain.B.That they can open a bank account at any time.C.That working extra hours in Britain is very common.D.That working pace in Britain is less fast than at home.2.It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that________________________________________________________________________.A.Jack Chen has been a lawyer in Belgium for 12 yearsB.employees in the West show.less respect for their bossC.Chinese employees are cautious when presenting ideasD.people in Europe express themselves in a modest way3.According to CME,most students return to China because ________.A.it's hard for them to get a green cardB.it's easy for them to buy a house at homeC.they will have to look after their parentsD.there are more job opportunities in China4.How does the writer organize the text?A.By interviewing students abroad.B.By comparing the differences.C.By discussing some facts.D.By listing some figures.【解题导语】以前,中国人去国外都想获得绿卡,而现在他们计划在国外工作十年以后,再回来买房或照顾父母。

It is a good exercise, yet many people find it boring. But what if making your morning jog a creative one? Like jumping from walls and over gaps, and ground rolls? Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale?Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way. It is just because of Bond's wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.Yes, that's parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible, getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body. Parkour is considered an extreme sport. As its participants dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more than that.Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy(理念)behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life to reach the destination successfully. A parkour lover said, “I love parkour because it s philosophy has become my life, my way to do everything.”Another philosophy we've learnt from parkour is freedom. It can be done by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world. It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself. It is only a state of mind. It is when you trust yourself that you earn energy.16.Parkour has become popular throughout the world because of ________.A.its founder, David BelleB.the film, Casino RoyaleC.its risks and tricksD.the varieties of participants17.The underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________”.A.streets B.objectsC.barriers D.roofs18.Which of the following is true of parkour?A.It challenges human abilities.B.It is a good but boring sport.C.It needs special training.D.It is a team sport.19.As its participants move around a city, ________.A.they can ask for helpB.they may choose to escapeC.they should run to extremesD.they must learn to survive20.Which of the following is the philosophy of parkour?A.Sports and extremes.B.Excitement and freedom.C.Dreams and success.D.Determination and freedom.Ⅲ.阅读表达阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到相应的横线上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

For him,every minute of the day8.is_filled(fill) with urgent matters.He gets home 9.so late that his wife and children are already 10.asleep(sleep),but he likes this lifestyle.Ⅰ.阅读理解APolo(马球) is a sport which has been played for centuries throughout Asia and the Middle East.However,it spread slowly across Asia,where it was played by kings and people of high rank.The West was introduced to the sport when the British took political control over India,and they quickly spread the sport around theworld.Numerous forms of polo have appeared,including on bicycles,camels,and for the brave of heart,elephants.The origins of the sport appear to lie in Persia,and the game has been played there for at least 2,000 years,as artwork and contemporary writings indicate.The name originates in Pakistan,where it means “ball”in Balti,a language native to that area.There are two teams of three to four people in a game of polo,depending on the size of the field and the style of game being played.Each player has a long,flexible mallet(球棍) which is used to hit a ball.The aim is to drive the ball through the opposing team’s goal.Polo is played in brief periods called chukkas;each chukka lasts seven minutes,and play can be fierce and violent.By tradition,horses are replaced at each chukka,ensuring that they stay fresh and fit.The horses used in the sport are called poloponies,which is a misnomer since ponies are small horses,but they are full-sized horses.In all cases,horses are selected for speed,ability,and obedience(顺从).A good horse is capable of stopping in a very small area,working with other horses and riders,and moving quickly with the flow of play;championship horses can be sold at a good price.1.We can infer that in ancient Asia,polo was mainly played by .A.artistsB.writersC.the upper classD.people living on the plain2.Where is the probable birthplace of polo?A.India.B.Persia.C.Britain.D.Pakistan.3.What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.The rules of polo.B.The development of polo.C.The equipment used when playing polo.D.The matters needing attention when playing polo.4.What does the underlined word “misnomer”in the last paragraph mean?A.A funny tale.B.An old tradition.C.A different species.D.An unsuitable name.BGerman artist HA Schult is an unusual artist who uses trash (废物)to make sculptures.“We are living in the time of garbage,”says Schult.“I created a thousand sculptures of garbage.They are a mirror of ourselves.”Here,Schult was talking about his 1,000 trash sculptures in the form of humans.He first exhibited them in 1996 in the western German state of North RhineWestphalia.“They are social sculptures,”he explains.“They are not only sculptures for the eyes.They are sculptures to spread the idea that we live in a time of garbage.”So far,Schult's social sculptures have been on show in Paris,in Moscow's Red Square,on the Great Wall of China,and in the desert next to the Pyramids of Giza near Cairo.HA Schult's work is unforgettable.Although his work has had a big influence on the art world,Schult remains modest about his creations:“Artists have to learn everytime.We are not important.All that counts is the time in which we are living.”Trash art has been around for years.But it seems that only the popular artists are regarded as true artists when working with trash.Why can't common people be considered artists when they use the same things and change them into some form of personal art?Maybe it's because we all have our own preset ideas of what art is and isn't,or whom artists are or should be.You can be an artist like Schult if you try.Look at used metal cans.What might be done with them?Imagine them in any number of new uses,or imagine them simply as an art form.What about boxes or clothing? Boxes can usually serve as new storage containers and houses for pets.And clothing?Imagine taking old clothes and turning them into hats or hanging organizers.1.What do we know about Schult's sculptures?A.They served as garbage containers.B.They reflected environmental issues.C.They were first shown in Paris,France.D.They were to raise economic awareness.2.HA Schult's artistic works also get the message across that an artist must________.A.be socially responsibleB.be as modest as possibleC.make garbage recyclableD.take diverse artistic forms3.According to the last 2 paragraphs,the author probably agrees that ________.A.it takes talent to be a trash artistB.preset ideas are important to artistsC.trash art can't be seen as a real art formD.average people can also make trash artists4.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.Could You Be a Trash Artist?B.What Are Social Sculptures?C.Do You Know about Trash Art?D.How Can We Deal with Used Cans?【解题导语】本文主要讲述了一位德国艺术家利用垃圾创造艺术作品的故事,并以此鼓励读者行动起来,为环保出一份力。

课时作业7Ⅰ.阅读理解(2019·山东省聊城市高三月考)Dear BasketballFrom the momentI started rolling my dad's tube socksAnd shooting imaginaryGamewinning shotsIn the Great Western ForumI knew one thing was real:I fell in love with you.—Kobe Bryant (Dear Basketball) The New Gorgeous StartingKobe Bryant has a real shot to add Oscarwinner to his extensive resume at 2018 Academy Awards with his short animated film Dear Basketball.The retired Los Angeles Laker talked about the nomination and how his sixminute short f ilm came together. He said that he loves “storytelling every bit as much as I love Basketball”.But as Kobe Bryant has taken on a number of different projects after his retirement from basketball, he explained what being nominated for Hollywood's top honor feels like:“I've always been told that as basketball players the expectation is that you play. This is all you know. This is all you do. Don't think about handling finances. Don't think about going into business. Don't think that you want to be a write—that's cute. I got that a lot. What do you want to do when you retire? ‘Well, I want to be a storyteller.’That's cute. This is...a form of validation for people to look and say. ‘OK, he really can do something other than dribble and shoot.’”What he seems to be saying is that the feeling of winning an Oscar—something so unexpected for an NBA legend—is crazier than what he felt winning rings, something he spent years focusing on in a craft (职业) he'd been working hard at.(An extract from Kobe Bryant: Great Man Shall Never Retire)本文讲述的是美国职业篮球明星科比·布莱恩特因为他的Dear Basketball影片而获得了奥斯卡奖。

He nodded, and then showed me a plant on the counter. “I can give you this one for 35 cents.” he said,“ Aw, gee,” I protested, “it looks like a weed!” About 18 inches high, the plant was in a small pot covered with faded red paper.“Now trust me, boy —I promise that tomorrow morning when you get up, you will find your most beautiful flower.”said Mr. Rocco.
