APeople have been burying the dead at Salem's Hope Cemetery since 1833. Array The place is filled with old gravestones and gothic mausoleums(哥特式陵墓),the spirits of the dead hanging over the land like an early morning fog.Keeping watch, a few steps from the road with her skirt over the pedestal(基座), is Goldie Belle Taylor, her face weathered but otherwise ingood condition. On this day, she is holding a bunch of pink roses because Goldie Belle always holds flowers. Someone makes sure of that."And she has had fresh flowers in her hands for the last 150 years." Karen Biery lives in Damascus, about five miles west of Hope Cemetery. She's written a book based on the legend of Goldie Belle Taylor titled "Believe." In 1886, at the age of two, young Goldie Belle used her hands to sop up(抹去) the left over elderberry juice from her father's iron kettle. She died not long after from iron poisoning. She was the love of her dad’s life, and he was so upset that he sold the family farm to buy the Italian made statue, which today marks her grave.At first, it was her father who brought the flowers and laid them in her hands. When he died in 1896, the flowers kept coming. Her flowers are different per season. Why do the flowers keep miraculously appearing? People have tried to find out by having camped by the statue, but not even the groundskeepers have been able to catch the criminal.It’s said that a fairy who arrives at Hope Cemetery looking for the grave of her birth mother. She comes across Goldie Belle's statue.1. Th e underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 probably refers to ________ .A. her face in good conditionB. her bunch of pink rosesC. Goldie Belle Taylor is holding pink rosesD. Goldie Belle Taylor always holds flowers2. It can be inferred from the 3rd paragraph that ________ .A. her father was poisonousB. the iron kettle was poisonousC. elderberry juice was poisonousD. it was her father that hated her3. After her father died, the flowers in the hands of Goldie Belle Taylor ________ .A. usually changeB. were stolenC. are no longer freshD. come from a criminalBAntarctica(南极洲)’s melting ice, which has caused global sea levels to rise by at least 13.8 millimeters over the past 40 years, was thought to primarily come from the unstable West Antarctic Ice Sheet(WAIS). Now, scientists have found that the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS)—considered largely unaffected by climate change—may also be melting at an unexpectedly rapid speed.The WAIS, whose base is below sea level, has long been considered the most likely to break down. Besides gravity, a deep current of warm water slips beneath the sheet, melting it frombelow until it becomes a floating shelf at risk of breaking away. In contrast, extreme cold and abase mostly above sea level are thought to keep the EAIS relatively safe from warm waters.But as greenhouse gases warm much of the planet, driving stronger polar winds, some scientists think warm water carried by a circular current will start to invade East Antarctica’s once unassailable ice. A cooperation of more than 60 scientists last year, published in Nature, estimated that the EAIS actually added about 5 billion tons of ice each year from 1992 to 2017.Eric Rignot of the University of California, Irvine, and colleagues combined 40 years of satellite imagery and climate modeling and found that overall Antarctica now sends six times more ice into the sea each year than it did in 1979, with the majority coming from West Antarctica. But East Antarctica was responsible for more than 30% of Antarctica’s contribution to the 13.8-millimeter sea level rise over the past 40 years. “The more we look at this system the more we realize this is fragile,” Rignot says. “Once these glaciers become unstable there is no red button to press to stop it.”Rignot hopes the study brings greater attention to a part of Antarctica that has traditionally been understudied. Helen Fricker, a glaciologist (冰川学家) in California, agrees. “We need to monitor the entire Antarctica and we just can’t do that without international cooperation.”4. What is the new finding of scientists?A.The east Antarctica is losing ice at an increasing rate.B. The west Antarctica is melting six times faster than in 1979.C. 5 billion tons of ice is added to Antarctica each year.D. The sea level has risen by 13.8 mm over the past 40 years.5. Which factor leads to the EAIS’s melting fast?A.A base mostly over sea level. B.The force of gravity.C.The invasion of a warm current. D.Extremely low temperature.6.Which of the following best explains “unassailable” underlined in Para. 3 ?A.Fragile. B.Unattackable. C.Mild. D.Unstable.7.Which way does Helen Fricker specially advocate?A.Satellite imagery. B.Global monitoring.C.Worldwide climate modeling. D.Worldwide combined efforts.CWatch out -- millions of Crocs are out walking the streets. Recently we stepped into the debate over the safety of Heelys and other roller shoes--shoes with wheels that deploy when a kid wants to roll. Now, following in the footsteps of that story of crocs, we look at another shoe that people seem to either love or hate. Crocs are made of a lightweight material that softens and forms to the foot. A company in Colorado started selling them in two thousand two. It says Croc shoes keep feet cool, are easy to clean and resist bacteria and terrible odor(气味).Traditional Crocs are kind of funny looking. They are big and in some cases brightly colored. The first ones were meant for boaters who needed shoes that would not slip on wet surfaces or mark boat decks(甲板). However, now some have the traditional back strap(带). Some do not. Some don’t look like the original Crocs at all. There are flip-flops and women’s dress flats.Some people report that Crocs helped their foot or back pain. Some doctors say the shoes are good because they are wide and don’t rub the feet. Others, though, say Crocs don’t provide enough support to wear for hours.Among the biggest fans are people who stand a lot in their jobs, like people who work in hospitals. Yet hospitals in some countries have been moving to ban Crocs. One concern is the riskof infection if blood from a sick patient falls on someone’s foot through Crocs with holes in the top. The company does make shoes without holes. But there are also questions about whether Crocs may attract static electricity which can interfere with medical equipment. The company has said it knows of no reason Crocs would act any different from sneakers and other footwear worn by medical professionals.1. The underlined word “them” in Para.1st probably refers to ________ .A. CrocsB. HeelysC. ShoesD. Streets2. Boaters like Crocs because they ________ .A. are traditionalB. look funnyC. are big and in some cases brightly coloredD. don’t slip on w et surfaces or mark boat decks3. It can be inferred from the 2nd paragraph that ________ .A. now there are many different crocsB. original Crocs are the same as current onesC. current crocs are designed for womenD. flip-flops are most popular with women4. Hospitals in some countries have been moving to ban Crocs in order to _______ .A. attract static electricityB. make crocs without holesC. avoid the danger of infectionD. prevent feet through Crocs with holesDAn estimated 135 million people have low vision. 40 to 45 million others cannot see at all. Health experts warn that the number of blind people will increase sharply as the world population grows, and grows older. They say the number of blind people could almost double by 2020.October ninth is World Sight Day. A campaign called Vision Twenty-twenty offers materials to help governments and health workers develop national plans to prevent blindness. Its goal is to finish curable blindness by 2020.Cataracts cause the lens of the eye to become cloudy. In most of Africa and Asia, cataracts cause at least half the cases of blindness that can be cured. A simple operation can remove cataracts. Trachoma is an infectious(传染性的) disease spread person-to-person and by insects. Trachoma causes about fifteen percent of all cases of blindness. Most of the cases are in Africa. It can be treated with antibiotic medicines and an operation to correct the damage. The disease known as river blindness is also found mostly in Africa. Flies spread the infection. A yearly treatment of the drug Mectizan can control the disease. Finally, a lack of vitamin A as a result of poor food is the leading cause of preventable blindness in children.Every five seconds, another person in the world goes blind. Most blind people live in developing nations. India has at least nine million. About six million are in China, and seven million in Africa. Officials estimate that the world economy loses about twenty-eight-thousand-million dollars each year from curable blindness. A resolution passed by the World Health Assembly in May urges all governments to develop national plans to preventblindness. You can learn more about Vision Twenty-twenty on the Internet at v-twenty-twenty dot o-r-g.1. The unde rlined word “vision” in Para. 1 can be replaced by “______”.A. memoryB. revisionC. fantasyD. sight2. We can conclude from the text that blindness ______ .A. can’t be avoidedB. can’t be curedC. can rise with the rise of the world populationD. can reduce with the rise of the world population3. The 3rd paragraph is mainly about _______ .A. blindnessB. cataractsC. the main treatments of blindnessD. the main causes of blindness4. What makes children in developing countries get curable blindness?A. Poor nutrition.B. Going blind.C. River blindness.D.

Sometimes it is a hot topic discussed by people.The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. Every year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. And up to now, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. But if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured completely, bringing happiness and more living days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. In addition, human life span(寿命) can be prolonged.Gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever children. Some families, with the English imperial family being a good example, have hereditary diseases. This means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. In the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. But gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. The scientist just need to find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born.Some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture human beings in large quantities. In the past few years, scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep, therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned. But I believe cloned babies will not come out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way. Of course, the governments must take care to control gene technology.1. What does "these two killers" in the second paragraph refer to?A. gene technology and another treatment of the two diseases.B. The two murderers who killed the cloned babyC The two diseases of cancer and heart diseaseD. Hereditary diseases and cancer2. What's the main idea of the third paragraph?A. How gene technology can be applied in the field of treating hereditary diseases.B Gene technology can be used to clone human babies.C. Gene technology can help people to give birth to a baby.D. Gene technology can help the English imperial family out3. Which of the following belongs to hereditary diseases?A. coldB. toothacheC. some kinds of heart diseasesD. Sars4.What is the main purpose of writing this passage?A. Expressing the writer's idea that gene technology will benefit peopleB. Telling people the advantages of gene technologyC. Telling the readers that gene technology will not benefit peopleD. Explaining that gene technology will also do harm to the humanity CACA四. 任务型阅读An Event of ImaginationThe year is 2094. It has been announced that a comet is heading towards the Earth. Most of it will miss our planet, but two pieces will probably hit the southern half of the Earth.On 17 July, a piece four kilometers wide enters the Earth's atmosphere with a massive explosion. About half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and a huge hole is made in the seabed. Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole. The wall of water, a kilometer high, rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned.Before the waves reach South America, the second piece of the comet lands in Argentina. Earthquakes and volcanoes are set off in the Andes Mountains. The shock waves move north into California and all around the Pacific Ocean.

The Balmoral was an engineering marvel of its time, capable of carrying passengers and goods across the waters of Lake Windermere. The museum’s exhibits also include photographs, artifacts, and interactive displays that tell the story of the steamboat era.One of the most fascinating aspects of the museum is the opportunity for visitors to take a short steamboat ride on the lake, just as the early travelers would have done. The experience is not only educational but also offers a unique perspective of the landscape that has changed little over the years.The museum’s founder, Mr.Harold Pegg, was a local historian who had a deep passion for preserving the town’s heritage.

This digital revolution has had a profound impact on various aspects of society, including education, business, and entertainment. The internet has become an indispensable part of our daily lives, connecting people from all corners of the globe.The birth of the internet can be traced back to the 1960s, when the UnitedStates government initiated a project called ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network).

With just a few clicks, we can now connect with people from all over the world, access a vast array of information, and even purchase products online. This technological advancement has brought both benefits and challenges to our society.In the past, communication was limited to letters, phone calls, and face-to-face meetings. Now, with email, social media, and instant messaging, we can communicate instantly with anyone, regardless of their location. This has greatly increased efficiency and convenience in our daily lives. However, it has also led to a decline in face-to-face interactions and a decrease in written communication skills.Information accessibility has also been greatly enhanced by the Internet. Libraries, once the go-to source for research, are now just one of many options. With a simple online search, we can find articles, books, and other resources in seconds. This has made education and self-learning more accessible to a wider audience. On the other hand, it has raised concerns about the reliability and accuracy of online information.Online shopping has become increasingly popular, offering convenience and a wide variety of choices. Customers can compare prices, read reviews, and even have products delivered to their doorstep. This has changed the retail landscape and forced traditional brick-and-mortar stores to adapt. However, there are concerns about the environmental impact of online shopping and the potential for fraud.1、What is the main topic of the passage?A. The advantages of the InternetB. The disadvantages of the InternetC. The impact of the Internet on communicationD.

These deaf people were not able to use a spoken language.But, beginning in the 1700s, the deaf were taught a special language. Using this language, they could share thoughts and ideas with others. The language they used was a language without sound. It was a sign language.How did this sign language work? The deaf were taught to make certain movements using their hands, faces, and bodies. These movements stood for things and ideas. People might move their forefingers across their lips. This meant, “You are not telling the truth” They might tap their chins with three fingers. This meant “My uncle”.The deaf were also taught to use a finger alphabet. They used their fingers to make the letters of the alphabet. In this way, they spelled out words. Some deaf people could spell out words at a speed of 130 words per minute.Sign language and finger spelling are not used as much as they once were. Today, the deaf are taught to understand others by watching their lips. They are also taught how to speak.46.

人教版高三上册英语Unit4练习试卷及答案(2)
人教版高三上册英语Unit4练习试卷及答案(2)Part three :阅读理解A篇 Car PollutionSome cars do not run the way they should. Bad smoke from a car can get into the air. This bad smoke is called pollution.Pollution turns the air a gray(灰色的) color. It is very dirty. It is not good for people to breathe this dirty air.To keep pollution down, the states tests cars every two years. This test checks to make sure the cars do not pollute the air. If a car does not pass the test, the owner cannot drive it the next year.Some car owners drive their cars even though they cannot pass the test. It is also very bad for the air.People want to find a way to get these cars off the road. So a state program(项目) was started that now seems to be helping. In this program the States buys cars that cannot pass the test or will help pay for repairs. This program has been helping people buy better cars or fix their old ones. It has also been helping to cut down on pollution.To meet the needs for the program, a car must be drivable and the owner must meet certain income(收入) restrictions(限制). In order to get help from the program, a motorist must have a family income of no more than 185% of the national poverty guidelines(贫困线). For a family of four, that would be no more than $32,653 each year.The state program that takes polluting cars off the road has just finished its first year, and people say it has been successful.For the past year, the state program has been buying cars that can’t pass the test. Some car owners get as much as $1,000 for their old ones, while others receive as much as $500 forrepairs.The cars bought by the States through the program are put out of use and sent to dismantlers(拆卸厂).46. Cars get tested every two years to make sure ________.A. the owners can get some moneyB. they can get repaired on timeC. they don’t pollute the airD. the government can decide to buy them or not47. A car owner can get some money from the program if he / she has ________.A. a motorB. only one carC. a small familyD. a low income48. After being bought by the government, a car will be ________.A. put out of useB. repairedC. tested againD. reusedB篇One silly question I simply can’t understand is “How do you feel?” Usually the question I asked of a man’s action—a man on the go, walking along the street or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? He’ll probably say, “Fine, I’m all right, ” but you’ve put a bug in his ear—maybe now he’s not sure. If you are a good friend, you may have seen something in his face, or his walk, that he overlooked(忽略) that morning. It starts him worrying a little. First thing you know, he looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else. “How do you feel?”Every question has its time and place. It’s perfectly acceptable, for example, to ask “How do you feel?” if you’re visiting a close friend in hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying take a train, or sitting at his desk working, it’s no time to ask him that silly question.When George Bernard Shaw, the famous writer of plays, was in his eighties, someone asked him, “How do you feel?” Shaw put him in his place. “When you reach my age, ” he said, “either you feel all right or you’re dead. ”49. The question “How do you feel?” seems to be correct and suitable when asked of ______.A. a man working at his deskB. a person having lost a close friendC. a stranger who looks worriedD. a friend who is ill50. The writer seems to feel that a busy man should______.A. be praised for his effortsB. never be asked any questionC. not be bothered(烦扰)D. be discouraged from working so hard51. George Bernard’s reply in the passages shows his______.A. cheerfulnessB. clevernessC. kindnessD. politeness人教版高三上册英语Unit 4练习试卷答案1-5 B C D A C 6-10 B D D D D 11-15A D D D D 16-20A D A C D21-25C A C A D 26-45 ACBDC BACDA CABDD BCABD46-51CDA DCB。

What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doingsilly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as "That was a very clever thing you did." or "You are such a smart child."36. The words "intelligent" and "brilliant" in the first paragraph probably mean _______ while "dull" in the second paragraph means ________.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome; ordinary-looking【2021高中生寒假专题】C. great and important; commonD. hopeful and helpful; careless37. According to the context we can guess that a genius is ________ while an idiot is ________.A. a normal person; a funny personB. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person; an ordinary person38. A person ________ is more likely to become a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. often thinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it into active use39. It is better for parents ________.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible40. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their children's growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C.

It would take only another minute to envelop (wrap up) the whole room.Mr. Kenneth Jones, the scientific officer of the North-Eastern Forensic(法庭的)Science Laboratory told an inquest(调查小组)at Wakefield, Yorkshire, “The spread of fire mixing this materials is very fast, and choking smokes are giving off.”He warned that it was a waste of time to try to put out this type of flame. The best thing was to get out of the room and shut the door to prevent from dying of the choking smokes.An accidental death was recorded on Richard Jolley, of Wakefield, who died in his bedroom from the choking smokes.Mr. Jones said that in a house where a four-year-old boy died there was a three-piece bedroom set with this foam filling. He said, “Some half million tons a year are produced for 500 million armchairs.”But the danger has been recognized and is being dealt with. A new product has just been developed in which the fire danger is reduced and will be put into use in a few months.36. According to the opinion of a scientist, certain types of armchairs ________.A. were very safeB. should not be used because they were very dangerousC. were widely used and suppliedD. will give off choking smokes37.

The prizes are given to honor great discoveries or special achievements by individuals or institutions. The fields in which the prizes are awarded are physics, chemistry, medicine or physiology (the study of living things), literature, world peace and economics.The prizes were first given out in 1901 (except the economics prize, which began only in 1969) and since then they have been presented almost every year. The winners received a large sum of money, a medal and a certificate. They are admired and respected around the world for their hard work and the achievements they have made.The prizes were created by a Swedish chemist called Alfred Nobel. Nobel was born in 1833, in Sweden. However, he was educated in Russia and the USA. Nobel devoted much of his life to his father’s b usiness, working with explosives. In 1864, his younger brother and several other people were killed in an explosion in a factory. After the terrible shock of his brother’s death, Nobel was determined to discover a way of making explosives safer to handle and use. He believed in the importance of his work, and he worked hard. In 1867, his hard work paid off, and he invented “dynamite”, a safer form of explosive.Dynamite made Nobel very rich. When he died in 1896, he left around 9 million dollars. In his will, Nobel said that he wanted this money to be used to pay for annual prizes to be given to people who had done the most good for mankind each year. He also said that the nationality of the winners did not matter. The prizes were to be given to the people or institutions who had achieved the most regardless of which country they were from.40. Anyone but ________ will possibly win a Nobel Prize.A. a scientist who makes a great discovery in physicsB. a scientist who makes a special achievement in DNAC. a woman who devoted herself to world peaceD. a black man who is working hard to give his four children a good education41. Why did Nobel decide to invent dynamite?A. Because his brother was killed in an explosion.B. Because dynamite was a safer form of explosive.C. Because his father worked with explosives.D. Because dynamite could make explosives safer to handle and use.42. What words describe Alfred Nobel best?A. Selfish and clever.B. Generous and wise.C. Great and old.D. Rich and powerful.43. Six Nobel prizes are given out each year EXCEPT _______.A. in 1902B. in 1973C. in 1971D. in 1969CSpeakers of different languages not only describe the world differently but think about it differently too, according to a new study.Researchers used a cartoon cat Sylvester to study how language was reflected in the gesturespeople made. Dr. Sotaro Kita of the University of Bristol’s Department of Experimental Psychology(心理学)showed the cartoon to a group of native English, Japanese and Turkish speakers and then watched their gestures as they described the actions they had seen. He found speakers of the three different languages used different gestures to describe the same event, which appeared to reflect the way the structure of their languages expressed that event. For example, when describing a scene where the cat swings on a rope, the English speakers used gestures showing an arc trajectory(弧形轨迹)and the Japanese and Turkish speakers tended to use straight gestures showing the motion but not the arc.Dr. Kita suggests this is because Japanese and Turkish have no proper verb to express the English meaning “to swing”. While English speakers use the arc gesture as their l anguage can readily express the change of location and the arc-shaped trajectory, Japanese and Turkish speakers cannot as easily express the idea of movement with an arc trajectory so they used the straight gesture.Dr. Kita said, “My research suggests that speakers of different languages cause different spatial (空间的) images of the same event in a way that matches the expressive possibilities of their own languages.”In other words, language influences spatial thinking at the moment of speaking.44. Researchers watched the gestures the people made because they wanted to know _______.A. how the structure of language changedB. how language was reflectedC. whether they could express the same ideaD. whether they could describe what they had seen45. Dr. Kita made a conclusion that _______, after watching the gestures of speakers of the threedifferent languages: English, Japanese and Turkish.A. English was obviously better than Japanese and TurkishB. Japanese and Turkish peo ple could not express the meaning of “swing”C. every language had its own special way to describe thingsD. no word in Japanese and Turkish could express some ideas of English46. What is the main idea of this passage?A. How people use different gestures to express the same event.B. Language influences the way people think.C. Differences between languages.D. Differences between gestures.47. What is the most probable meaning of the underlined word “readily” (in paragraph 3)?A. Specially.B. Without difficulty.C. With interest.D. Willingly.DThe following are four forms about medicine. How to use the medicine is very important. Never take any by mistake.·Take the medicine with water, followed by one tablet every eight hours, as required. For further nighttime and early morning, take two tablets at bedtime. Do not take more than six tablets in 24 hours. For children six or twelve years old, give half the adult dosage. For children under six years old, go to your doctor for advice. Reduce dosage if nervousness, restlessness or sleeplessness takes place.·Each pill of the medicine is taken three times every day for those fourteen years old. As usual, a pill at 6:00 a.m. before breakfast, one before 11:00 a.m. and one before sleep.

The 60-year-old woman was taken by ambulance to Southland Hospital after firefighters battled for 30 minutes to cut her from her car.Acting Senior Sergeant Brock Davis, of Invercargill, said emergency services were called to the scene of the crash at the crossroads of Motorimu Rd and State Highway I shortly before 5:00 p.m. yesterday.Mr. Davis said a Mitsubishi car driven by a 30-year-old man traveling north on the highway and the woman’s southbound (南行的) Suzuki Alto collided (碰撞). The man suffered slight injuries in the crash, he said.Invercargill Passenger Transport Ltd driver Bill McDermott and his passengers—New Zealand Aluminum Smelters Ltd workers were first on the scene and alerted emergency services.

He was not willing to take any credit for helping the woman.“The praise goes to all the guys that jumped off that bus.” Invercargill Senior Station officer Alan Goldsworthy, who was an officer in charge at the scene, said there was a possibility the car could have burst into flames if Mr. McDermott and the smelter workers had not helped. “They should acquire a good pa t on the back,” he said.52.

They’re almost a “religion”.Thousands of sports fans buy expensive tickets to watch their favorite teams and athletes play in person. Other fans watch the games at home,sticking to their TV sets,never missing a game. Many a wife becomes a “sports widow” during her husband’s favorite season.Americans’ devotion to sports has created a new class of wealthy people:professional athletes. Sports stars often receive million-dollar salaries. Some even make big money by appearing in advertisements for soft drinks,shoes and almost everything.Sports are an important part of American culture. Throughout their school life,Americans learn to play many sports. Many students try out for the school teams. Athletic events at universities attract scores of fans and benefit the wholecommunity. Many people also enjoy non-competitive activities,like hiking,cycling,horseback riding,camping or hunting.Many sports were imported from other countries. Europeans brought tennis,golf,bowling and boxing to America. Football and baseball came from other Old World games. Only basketball has a truly American origin. Americans export sports fever as well. Satellites broadcast games to sports fans around the globe. NBA is a good example.The names of American superstars like basketball great Michael Jordan have become household words all over the world. 21.Many a wife becomes a “sports widow” in the US probably because________.A.they are serious in religion B.they are devoted to sportsC.their husbands stick to sports D.their husbands are missing 22.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.The US sports stars can earn a large sum of money via the media.B.American students go in for various sports and athletic events.C.Lots of American people take part in non-competitive activities.D.American people like to exchange different sports from each other. 23.The writer mainly intends to tell us________.A.how important sports are in AmericaB.where sports can help to make moneyC.why sports are so popular in AmericaD.what affect Americans’ everyday lifeBMy aunt Edith was a widow of 50,working as a secretary,when doctors discovered she had got what was then thought to be a very serious heart illness.Aunt Edith didn’t accept defeat easily.She began studying medical reports in library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart doctor,Dr.Michael Debakey,of Houston,Texas. He had saved the life of someone with the same illness. The article said Dr Debakey’s fees were very high;Aunt Edith couldn’t possibly pay them. But could he tell her of someone whose fee she could pay?So Aunt Edith wrote to him. She simply listed her reasons for wanting to live:her three children,who would be on their own in three or four years and among them a little girl who always dreamed of traveling and seeing the world. There wasn’t a word o f self-pity-only warmth and humor and the joy of living. She mailed the letter,not really expecting an answer.A few days later,my doorbell rang. Aunt Edith didn’t wait to come in;she stood in the hall and read aloud:Your beautiful letter moved me very deeply. If you can come to Houston,there will be no charge for either the hospital or the operation.Signed:Michael Debakey That was seven years ago. Since then,Aunt Edith has been around the world. Her three children are happily married. For her age,she is one of the youngest,most alive people I know.24.“Aunt Edith didn’t accept defeat easily” means that .A. she was very beautifulB. she was very strongC. she was very braveD. she was very warm hearted25.In fact,Aunt Edith’s letter to Dr.Debakey was full of .A. courageB. illnessC. pityD. sadness26.After reading Dr.Debakey’s letter,Aunt Edith felt .A. discouragedB. frightenedC. disappointedD. encouragedCIf you are a fruit grower—or would like to become one—take advantage of Apple Day to see what’s around. It’s called Apple Day but in practice it’s more like Apple Month. The day itself is on October 21, but since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October around Britain.Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples. To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio which was grown by the Romans. Although it doesn’t taste of anything special, it’s still worth a try, as is the knobbly (多疙瘩的) Cat’s Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions. One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette, but you’ll need a warm, sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it, so it’s a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.At the events, you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions, and because these are family affairs, children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit, including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园).If you want to have a real orchard experience, try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale,near Faversham in Kent.27.What can people do at the apple events?A. Attend experts’ lectures.B. Visit fruit-loving families.C. Plant fruit trees in an orchard.D. Taste many kinds of apples.28.What can we learn about Decio?A. It is a new variety.B. It has a strange look.C. It is rarely seen now.D. It has a special taste.29. What does the underlined phrase “a pipe dream” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. A practical idea.B. A vain hope.C. A brilliant plan.D. A selfish desire.30.What is the author’s purpose in writing t he text?A. To show how to grow apples.B .To introduce an apple festival.C. To help people select apples.D. To promote apple research.第二节(共5个小题,每题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出最佳答案填入空白处。
