A Promise Cleverly KeptC A Loving WifeD Miser and his WifeCA great loss—Shirley Temple dies at 85February 12, 2014BYDERRIK J. LANG, Associated PressShirley Temple Black, who died on February 10th at age 85, wasn’t just a child star. She was THE child star—the sweet little girl whose shining smile helped illumine some of the darkest days the US has known during the Great Depression.It’s hard today to imagine the super star Shirley was once “America’s Little Darling”. She sang and danced her way to the top of the box office in such films as Bright Eyes, Curly Top and Heidi. By1940, she had appeared in 43 films. Temple teamed with Bill Robison in four movies, and their dance on the stairs in The Little Colonel is still a legendary film moment.In the 1930s, her name on a movie introduction assured (保证) a packed house. She inspired dolls, dresses, dishes—even a drink (alcohol-free, of course).US President Franklin. Roosevelt once famously said that “as long as our country has Shirley Temple, we will be all right.’’Unlike so many of today’s child stars, Temple didn’t end up with her name appearing across the headlines for bad behaviors. Instead of getting her photos on front pages or struggling with drugs and alcohol, Temple went on to a second career in diplomacy (外交), including presidential appointments as ambassador to Ghana. She surprised a lot of people who doubted her with her grace, knowledge and eagerness to serve. In fact, her career in public service (20 years) was longer than her career in movies (19). The role she valu ed most, however, was as wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.The world has lost a treasured Hollywood legend. But her movies will allow that little dynamic figure to continue charming audiences for a very long time.8. The word “illumine” in Paragraph 1 means _______.A. shortenB. sweetenC. strengthenD. brighten9. Temple, as a child movie star, can best be described as _______.A. sweet and livelyB. gentle and kindC. smart and knowledgeableD. shy and attractive10. What part did she regard as the most important in her life?A. A top movie star.B. A businesswoman.C. Her family role.D. Her diplomacy career.11. Where does this passage possibly come from?A. A biography.B. A newspaper.C. A magazine.D. A poster.DI was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签 ) everything. I always looke d for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, "Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!" Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, weeping. Obviously, that was something she should not go through phone. All of a sudden，a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart,Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn't noticed Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me. "Thanks."Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn't always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in. cleaning up and holding on.12. What made Kate angry one evening?A. She couldn't find her books.B. She heard the author shouting loud.C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.D. She saw the author's shoes beneath her bed.13. The author tidied up the room most probably because___.A. she was scared by Kate's angerB. she hated herself for being so messyC. she wanted to show her careD. she was asked by Kate to do so14. How is Paragraph I mainly developed?A. By analyzing causes.B. By showing differences.C. By describing a process.D. By following time order.15. What might be the best title for the story?A.

Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a spoken language problem, communication can be carried out through sign language, in which gestures stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists and people unable to hear or speak have often had to turn to this form of expression. When gestures describe words or ideas, they can often be used internationally. When used for spelling words however, where each gesture stands for a single letter, people must share the same written language. Body language sends ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either meaningfully or not. A wink can be a way of showing that the person is only joking. A nod means agreement, while shaking the head indicates disagreement.Other forms of language can be found in Brille ( a reading system of raised dots read with the fingertips used by the blind ), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide and warn people. While language is the most common form of communication, other systems and techniques also express human装订线内禁止答题班级 姓名 考号thoughts and feelings.31.

What can’t be effectively communicated by sign language when people belong to different language groups?A. SpellingB. IdeaC. Whole wordsD. Expressions35.How many different forms of communication are mentioned in the text?A. ThreeB. FiveC. SixD. Nine七选五Compared with health, nothing is more important than it. Just as someone says, health is the greatest wealth. 36If you have a headache, toothache, backache, or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you go to the doctor.The doctor will examine your throat, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, check your teeth or have your chest X- rayed. 37 The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.38An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his he art and lungs. The doctor examine d him and said there was no medicine for his disease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. 39 In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. 40 He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.“But you know, doctor,” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”A.

Therefore, it's important for us 43 (have) a good knowledge of the meaning of gestures. For example, nodding one's head means “yes” in some countries, but 44 the contrary, in other countries, it means “no”. English people do not usually stand close 45 others or touch strangers as soon as they meet. However, people from places like Spain, Italy or South American countries approach others 46_ (close) and are more likely 47 (touch) them. Most people around the world now greet each other by shaking hands, but some cultures use other greetings as well, such as the Japanese, 48 prefer to bow._ 49 general, studying international customs can help avoid _ 50 _ (get) into embarrassment in today's world of cultural crossroads.五.短文改错 ( 共10 小题, 每小题1 分, 共10 分 )The winter holiday is coming, which made me excited.

辽宁省葫芦岛市第八高级中学2020届高三英语上学期期中试题(实验班)
辽宁省葫芦岛市第八高级中学2020届高三英语上学期期中试题（实验班）一、阅读理解A.Putting Movies on MobilesMovies in the theater get their recognition at awards ceremonies such as the Oscars. But how about movies for phones? They are getting their turn at MoFilm—the first mobile film festival.The first MoFilm competition received 250 entries from more than 100 countries. Entries were restricted to films that were five minutes or less in length—best for viewing and sharing on mobile phones. An independent team of judges then selecteda shortlist of five film-makers. The winner was chosen from the shortlist by an audience voting using their phones.New PlatformsThe awards highlight the increasing influence that mobile phones are showingin the entertainment industry. Many grassroots filmmakers start out with short films. They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screen their work. Therefore, mobile phones are increasingly being seen as a new platform for these short works. It is a good place for anyone who wants to express themselves and find a wayto have that expression be seen by a wide audience. Just think about how many people have mobile phones in the world!New Technology AdvancesMoFilm is pioneering content for mobile and online services that is a worldaway from Hollywood. The majority of films made for mobiles are now short in length, taking into account the screen size. However this could be overcome as technology advances.In the near future, longer films will likely be seen on the mobile phone. Andthere are mobile companies creating phones where users can watch movies at higher quality.1Wherever you see movies, one thing is certain: the quality of work, the simple ability at story telling, and the thing that inspires someone to tell a story can really come from anywhere.21.At the first MoFilm, ______.A.the best films were five minutes or less in lengthB.over 100 countries took part in the competitionC.movies in the theater got their recognitionD.the winner was chosen by experts' voting22.The underlined word “thwarted” means “______”.A.surprisedB.disappointedC.frightenedD.encouraged23.Nowadays the majority of films made for mobiles are short in length because of ______.A.the screen sizeB.online servicesD.the mobile phoneC.technology advances24.We can learn from the text______.A.It is impossible to see longer films on mobile phone.B.Mobile companies will creating more films.C.The quality work can only be seen in the theater.D.The quality of work can also be seen from MoFilms.B.Have you ever noticed that you feel happier and more relaxed after you eatbread, pasta or fruit? Do you find that you are more energetic and awake after eating yogurt or beans? These things are not accidents. Food affects how we feel more than we may think. Scientists researching food and its effect on our moods are beginning to understand that we can influence our feelings with what we eat.There are chemicals in our brains that control our moods. One of the most basicof these is serotonin (血清素) , one of the most commonly recognized. When serotonin levels increase, we feel more relaxed and happy; when the levels decrease, we feel unhappier.2Proteins (蛋白质) found in nuts, vegetables, tofu and some milk products containa chemical that makes us feel more awake and energetic.Another chemical that can easily affect our mood is caffeine (咖啡因).Caffeine, which is found in coffee, chocolate and many types of tea, is perhaps the worst thing you can have when you are feeling stressed. Yet coffee or chocolate are often the first things people think of eating when they are under pressure. Caffeine and sugar can reduce your blood sugar level, which changes your brain chemistry and vitamin levels, making you feel even more stressed.Of course, enjoying a nice meal with friends, whatever we eat, can also affecthow you feel. It is important not to worry about eating the right foods to control your mood. Most importantly, though, remember the old rule: try to eat different foods, and do not eat too much!25.Which of the following can't make you more energetic?A.yogurtB.beansC.sugarD.nuts26.How many types of chemicals controlling moods are mentioned in the passage?A.TwoB.ThreeC.FourD.Five27.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Being with friends also plays a big role in feeling happy.B.When you feel stressed, you can eat too much food.C.We are supposed to eat healthy food to keep a slim figure.D.You have to pay attention to what you eat to change your mood.C.Proudly reading my words, I glanced around the room, only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes. Confused, I glanced toward my stone-faced teacher. Having no choice, I slowly raised the report I had slaved over, hoping to hide myself. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This wasthe first real talk I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country, I had never heard of that name before. 3As I searched the name of this fellow, it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: flip (掷) a coin. Heads—the commander, and tails—the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails, my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later, standing before this unfriendly mass, I was totally lost. Oh well,I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution.” The whole world became quite! How could I know that she meant that George Washington?Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: No re-dos; no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not justified, and I believed I deserved a second chance. Consequently, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmaster's office with my grandfather, now having an entirely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my option to skip the sixth grade. Justice is sweet!28.What did the author's classmates think about his report?A.sad.B.Ridiculous.C.Boring.D.Puzzling.29.Why was the author confused about the task?A.He followed the advice and flipped a coin.B.He was unfamiliar with American history.C.He forgot his teacher's instruction.D.He was new at the school.30.The underlined word “burning” in Para. 3 probably means _______.A.annoyedB.ashamedC.eagerD.ready31.In the end, the author turned things around _______.4A.by redoing his taskB.through his own effortsC.with the help of his grandfatherD.under the guidance of his headmasterD.It is true that people with better education are usually able to get betterpaying jobs.In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don't.It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs.But this isn't accepted by all people.Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his lifeto get education only for a way of living.This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education.In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don't need to spend so much time in school.People can get education for a livingin a short time.Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone.Even language and maths need not be taught in detail(详细地), either.Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living. Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man.It is not onlyto teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities.After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of cation is to make a man lead a better cated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and take an interest in the world.I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education,but certainly not the most important or the main reason.32.People with little education usually ________.A.spend a long time in schoolB.have a good chance to get a jobC.spend the best years to choose jobsD.have fewer chances to get a good job33.The earliest education was probably to ________.5A.make a man lead a better lifeB.teach a man to write and readC.make people get a way of livingD.teach people to read good books34.The underlined word“well-rounded”in the passage means “________” in Chinese.A.圆满的B.崭新的C.公平的D.全面的35.It is expected that educated people will be able to ________.A.accept education as a way of livingB.take an interest in the whole worldC.develop their abilities to make playsD.learn subjects like language and math二、七选五根据短文内容,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。

We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The streams were long gone back into the earth. If we didn't see some rain soon we would lose everything.I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year-old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. He was obviously walking with a great effort... trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods, he came running out again, toward the house.Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking cautiously to the woods, then running back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked; being very careful not to spill the water he held in them. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. He had a much greater purpose. As I leaned in to spy on him, I saw the most amazing sight.Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground, obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion, lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boy's hand.I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life. As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they were suddenly joined by other drops... and more drops... and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God, Himself, was weeping with pride.12. Why did the author follow her son?A. Because there might be danger.B. Because her son was doing a good deed.C. Because she intended to help.D.

Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a spoken language problem, communication can be carried out through sign language, in which gestures stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists and people unable to hear or speak have often had to turn to this form of expression. When gestures describe words or ideas, they can often be used internationally. When used for spelling words however, where each gesture stands for a single letter, people must share the same written language.Body language sends ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either meaningfully or not. A wink can be a way of showing that the person is only joking. A nod means agreement, while shaking the head indicates disagreement.Other forms of language can be found in Brille ( a reading system of raised dots read with the fingertips used by the blind ), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide and warn people.While language is the most common form of communication, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.31. Which of the following ways can not be used as a form of communication?A. Oral speechB. Sign languageC. Body languageD. Thought32. What does the author mainly want to say?A. People can communication in many different ways.B. Everybody uses only one form of communication.C. Language is invaluable to foreigners.D. Non-spoken communication is of little value.33. According to the text, which part of the body can be used to show you are joking?A. FingersB. EyesC. HeadD. Feet34. What can ’t be effectively communicated by sign language when people belong to different language groups?A. SpellingB. IdeaC. Whole wordsD. Expressions 35.How many different forms of communication are mentioned in the text?A. ThreeB. FiveC. SixD. Nine 七选五Compared with health, nothing ismore important than it. Just as someone says, health is the greatest wealth. 36If you have a headache, toothache, backache, or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you go to the doctor.The doctor will examine your throat, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart andlungs, check your teeth or have your chest X- rayed. 37 The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.38An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his he art and lungs. The doctor examine d him and said there was no medicine for his disease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. 39 In other words, thedoctor advised him to follow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.”The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. 40 He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man. “But you know, doctor,” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”A.

葫芦岛八高中2019–2020学年度上学期高三第一次月考第二部分阅读理解(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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
AAll over the world people enjoy sports. Sports help to keep people healthy，happy and help them to live longer.Sports change with the season. People play different games in winter and summer.Games and sports often grow out of people's work and everyday activities. The Arabs use horses or camels in much of their everyday life；they use them in their sports，too.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football，for example，has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers.Some sports or games go back to thousands of years，like running or jumping. Chinese boxing，for example，has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other but after a game they often become good friends. Sports help to train a person's character．One learns to fight hard but fight fair，to win without pride and to lose with grace．21．The writer didn't tell us in this passage that ________.A．basketball was invented in AmericaB．sports change with the seasonC．games and sports often grow out of people's work and everyday activitiesD．football is played all over the world22．People all over the world enjoy sports because ________.A．sports are interestingB．sports help to keep people healthy，happy and to live longerC．sports help to train one's characterD．all of the above23．From this passage we can see that ________.A．sports and games are unimportant things that people doB．sports and games should be treated (对待) only as amusement (娱乐活动)C．sports and games are only useful to the oldD．none of the above is trueBAs a young man, Tom was a famous artist with a wife and two fine sons. One night, his elder son was ill. Tom and his wife thought it was nothing serious. But the boy died suddenly that night.After his son died, Tom always felt very sad. To make matters worse, his wife also left him later, leaving him alone with his six-year-old younger son, Emie. Sadly, he turned to alcohol(酒) for help.As time went by, Tom began to lose everything he had—his land, house, etc. A few months later，Tom passed away alone in a small bar. Hearing of Tom's death, I thought, “What a complete failure！”But later, I began to change my earlier opinion. I knew Tom's now adult son, Emie. He is one of the kindest, most caring men. I saw the love between Emie and his children. And I thought that kindness and caring had to come from somewhere.One day, I asked him what made him become such a special person. Emie said quietly, “My father came into my room every night, give me a kiss and said, ‘Love you, son.’”Hearing his words, I understood everything. Tom didn't leave many things behind. But he had been a kind loving father, and left behind his best love.24．How many sons did Tom have?A．One.B．Two.C．Three. D．Four.25．What did the writer think of Tom when he heard of his death?A．Tom was a lazy man.B．Tom was an unsuccessful father.C．Tom was a hard-working man.D．Tom liked drinking too much.26．What happened to Tom's wife later?A．She was mad. B．She went to work.C．She died. D．She was ill.27．Where did Emie's kindness and caring come from?A．His father's love.B．His mother's love.C．His own hard work.D．His parents' hard work.CWhile inventions like the wheel and the Internet have changed the way the world works today, there are some creations that never quite got off the ground. Let's look at the strangest inventions from across the globe.THE TOMATO-FEEDING ROBOTJapanese juice seller, Kagome, invented a robot that will feed you tomatoes with its long metal arms extended on either side of your face while you run. Originally created for the Tokyo Marathon, the robot even has a timer so that tomato-eating runners won't use up their supply too quickly.THE ROLLING BENCHIt's lunchtime and many people may be looking for a park bench to sit on, but the rain has made every surface humid. This is when the rolling bench comes in. When one side is too wet, a handle on the side can roll up another dry side for better sitting conditions. The inventions come from designer Sung Woo Park, from Seoul in South Korea.THE LED SLIPPERS(拖鞋)We all hate hurting our toes in the dark, but a revolutionary footwear design can prevent this from happening again. The slightly strange LED slippers are designed to be comfortable, yet shine your path at night. With two in-built LED lights at the top of each slipper, the users can direct their toes at any area that needs light.THE FOOT-POWERED BICYCLEIt's the unusual invention of German designers Tom Hambrock and Juri Spetter. Besides an unusual appearance, its function is also slightly strange, as the user must run to get the bicycle moving. As soon as the riders have enough momentum(动力), they're able to rest their feet on the back wheel and use the handlebars to control its direction.28．What can we know about the tomato-feeding robot from the text?A．It's popular with lazy eaters.B．It was the creation of a Korean.C．It was designed for a sports event.D．It has two plastic arms.29．Which of the following can re place the underlined word “humid” in the text?A．Dirty. B. Wet.C．Unsafe. D. Uncomfortable.30．Which invention was designed for its users' safety?A．The LED slippers.B．The rolling bench.C．The foot-powered bicycle.D．The tomato-feeding robot.31．What can we infer about the inventions mentioned in the text?A．They bring us speed improvement.B．Their inventors are all from Asia.C．They are powered by electricity.D．They can serve us in different ways.DAs we all know，behavior and words sometimes have different meanings in some countries or areas，which is called cultural differences. For example：Shaking the head in most countries means “no”，while in India it means “yes”．In Latin America，especially Brazil and in many other countries，including China，showing the thumb upwards means everything is “OK”，while it is understood in Greece as a rude sign.Laughing is connected in most countries with happiness—in Japan it is often a sign of confusion.In the UK and Ireland，the word “compromise” has a positive meaning (an agreement where both parties win something)；in the USA it may rather have negative meanings (both parties lose something)．In some European countries，it is normal，or at least widely accepted，to arrive half an hour late for a dinner invitation but in Germany this would be extremely rude.If invited to dinner，in many Asian countries，it is well-mannered to leave right after the dinner: the ones who don't leave may indicate they have not eaten enough.

"This year was only meant to be an experimental year to see which varieties would produce the most fruits and we had to fight with early blight （疫病），which put paid to a number of other tomato plants.I'm amazed by how many tomatoes were on the plant in the end." Growing 1，269 tomatoes on a single stem is only Douglas Smith's latest achievement.In 2020，he grew a 20-foot-tall sunflower，and also set a new national record for the heaviest tomato，with a 3.106 kg tomato.He likes to run little experiments on other vegetables and crops，and he is currently experimenting on peas，aubergines and potatoes.4. What can we know about Douglas Smith from paragraph 2？______A. He broke the old record twice.B. He had planted the best tomatoes.C. He thought breaking the record was easy.D. He had worked to break the record for a decade.5. Which of the following can describe Douglas Smith best？______A. Strict and tolerant.B. Attractive and braveC. Patient and hard-working.D. Friendly and humorous.6. What may be a challenge for Douglas Smith to break the old record？______A. A lack of money.B. Skill shortages.C. Building a laboratory.D. Dealing with the blight.7. What is the last paragraph mainly about？______A. The record's significance.B. Douglas Smith's next plan.C. The details about the heaviest tomato.D. More information about Douglas Smith's planting.CThese days，there's a green version of just about everything.There are cars that run on electricity and alternative fuels，houses that are powered by solar energy and wind farms seemingly popping up on every open space from California to coastal Japan.Even drones （无人机）ate getting in on the action.The unmanned air vehicles are also being put to environmental uses around the globe.The eye in the sky that they provide helps researchers better understand what's going on with the natural world in which we live.For environmentalists and earth scientists，the flying machines can be sent way up in the air to record sweeping footage of a large area to track the impact of things like climate change，migration and the acts of cutting down and burning forest trees，which can be done without having to buy a helicopter，rent a plane or tape a video camera to a bird.Sure，there's plenty of satellite footage already out there，but drones let researchers accurately position the data set that they want to get a quicker，closer look at the area that they're looking to monitor.In 2013，for example，the National Aeronautics and Space Administration （NASA）sent a drone into the Turrialba Volcano in Costa Rica to gather data about its emissions.The temperature，ash height and gas concentration information collected during the mission helped earth scientists determine which way the volcanic and potentially poisonous gas erupting from the volcano was moving and take steps to limit its environmental impact.Similarly，Arctic researchers are using drones to help study temperature change and the melting of glaciers.They use drones equipped with infrared （红外线的）cameras to sweep into places that they may otherwise not be able to reach to monitor and collect data on the melting ice.The same flying machines may also eventually be used to transport other data collection tools into the wild.8. How does the author lead in the topic of the text？______A. By giving examples.B. By listing data.C. By drawing a distinction.D. By making assumptions.9. What mainly makes drones used to better watch nature？______A. The high safety.B. The huge space.C. The recovery capability after damage.D. The ability to collect data at a high altitude.10. What do the last two paragraphs mainly tell us about drones？______A. Their production steps.B. Their practical functions.C. Their potential impacts on the atmosphere.D. Their data set for motoring the environment.11. Which is a suitable title for the text？______A. Drones：Poisonous.B. Drones：Eco-friendly.C. Drones：Limited.D. Drones：Adaptable.DJewel White，a 15-year-old student，gathers her books and signs herself out of a routine morning math class.She is not leaving school for the day，but is off to try some more challenging equations.This practice is not uncommon at Westmount Secondary School in Hamilton，Ontario，Canada，where an unconventional learning approach is .Westmount is one of the eight regular schools in the country where students work at their own pace and set their own direction，spending as much or as little time as they need on subjects.Teachers act as advisers.With the classroom teachers' permission，students can sign out of a class to work on other materials or walk into another class to catch up on another subject.And every two weeks they make plans for their own learning time，with support from their adviser.At a time when a shrinking student population is causing boards to close schools.Westmount sits at 30 percent overcapacity with 1，500 students.Its bursting number led education officials to consider expanding the program to other locations."If students are interested，we are going to do our best to provide that sort of programming，" said Todd White，chair of the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board.When students like Jewel are not in a classroom，they can usually be found in the school's learning commons，a study area for all students.There are teachers available to help，but generally students are working on their own assignments or projects.Jewel said Westmount's self-paced style caught her attention when she was looking at highschools.Westmount is not the school close to her home.She said at elementary school she would often cause trouble in class because she would complete her work early and not have much else to do. "I find this kind of academic environment in Westmount is a lot better for me，" she said. "I like the thought of being able to work faster or slower if needed."12. What does the word "prevailing" underlined in paragraph I mean？______A. Catching on.B. Giving way.C. Slowing down.D. Causing trouble.13. Which of the following words can best describe the school's learning approach？______A. Complex but familiar.B. Flexible and efficient.C. Traditional and common.D. Difficult but interesting.14. What is Todd White's attitude to Westmount's style of learning？______A. Tolerant.B. Doubtful.C. Positive.D. Unconcerned.15. What did Jewel think of her elementary school？______A. It was a school closest to her home.B. It provided too much homework for students.C. Its learning atmosphere was not very satisfying.D. Its students did not work as fast as Westmount.Wherever you live.you always look forward to a comfortable home.However，people don't often turn it into what they want because they worry about the costs.Actually.this is a common misconception （错误认识）—you don't need to spend a lot of money in order to make your home comfortable. (1) .ClearThe first thing you need to do before buying or rearranging anything is clearing rooms. (2) .There is no way to turn a messy space into an attractive one without organizing it.So，the first thing you do is clearing rooms.You don't have to throw out everything.Though clearing rooms can be an ongoing process that takes time，it's worth it.Add Green Plants(3) .Besides the eye-pleasing effect that plants and flowers have，they also remove poisonous substances from the air，making your environment healthier.If that isn't enough for you，they tend to help calm people down.Try Darker CoorsAnother thing you can do to make a room look warmer is use some darker shades in the decoration.Lighter colors are great for making a room feel bigger，but darker colors create a comfortable and attractive environment. (4) .Adjust the LightingThe last thing is lighting.The lighting in a room can make or break it. (5) .Think of using the fire place if you have one，lighting some candles and hanging up some string lights.Even a lamp can make a big difference to the environment of a room.16. A. A B. B C. C D.

With shining dark eyes, he seems like the kind of kid who would enjoy public speaking.But he’s nervous. “I’m here to tell you today why you should... should...” Chris trips on the “-ld,” a pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers. His teacher, Thomas Whaley, is next to him, whispering support. “... Vote for... me...” Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well.

Whaley recalls（回想起）how at the beginning of the year, when called upon to read, Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.Learning English as a second language can be a painful experience. What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes. “It takes a lot for any student,” Whaley ex plains, “especially for a student who is learning English as their new language, to feel confident enough to say, ‘I don’t know, but I wan to know.’”。

AAll over the world people enjoy sports. Sports help to keep people healthy，happy and help them to live longer.Sports change with the season. People play different games in winter and summer.Games and sports often grow out of people's work and everyday activities. The Arabs use horses or camels in much of their everyday life；they use them in their sports，too.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football，for example，has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers.Some sports or games go back to thousands of years，like running or jumping. Chinese boxing，for example，has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other but after a game they often become good friends. Sports help to train a person's character．One learns to fight hard but fight fair，to win without pride and to lose with grace．21．The writer didn't tell us in this passage that ________.A．basketball was invented in AmericaB．sports change with the seasonC．games and sports often grow out of people's work and everyday activities D．football is played all over the world22．People all over the world enjoy sports because ________.A．sports are interestingB．sports help to keep people healthy，happy and to live longerC．sports help to train one's characterD．all of the above23．From this passage we can see that ________.A．sports and games are unimportant things that people doB．sports and games should be treated (对待) only as amusement (娱乐活动) C．sports and games are only useful to the oldD．none of the above is trueBAs a young man, Tom was a famous artist with a wife and two fine sons. One night, his elder son was ill. Tom and his wife thought it was nothing serious. But the boy died suddenly that night.After his son died, Tom always felt very sad. To make matters worse, his wife also left him later, leaving him alone with his sixyearold younger son, Emie. Sadly, he turned to alcohol(酒) for help.As time went by, Tom began to lose everything he had—his land, house, etc. A few months later，Tom passed away alone in a small bar. Hearing of Tom's death, I thought, “What a complete failure！”But later, I began to change my earlier opinion. I knew Tom's now adult son, Emie. He is one of the kindest, most caring men. I saw the love between Emie and his children. And I thought that kindness and caring had to come from somewhere.One day, I asked him what made him become such a special person. Emie said quietly, “My fathe r came into my room every night, give me a kiss and said, ‘Love you, son.’”Hearing his words, I understood everything. Tom didn't leave many things behind. But he had been a kind loving father, and left behind his best love.24．How many sons did Tom have?A．One. B．Two.C．Three. D．Four.25．What did the writer think of Tom when he heard of his death?A．Tom was a lazy man.B．Tom was an unsuccessful father.C．Tom was a hardworking man.D．Tom liked drinking too much.26．What happened to Tom's wife later?A．She was mad. B．She went to work.C．She died. D．She was ill.27．Where did Emie's kindness and caring come from?A．His father's love.B．His mother's love.C．His own hard work.D．His parents' hard work.CWhile inventions like the wheel and the Internet have changed the way the world works today, there are some creations that never quite got off the ground. Let's look at the strangest inventions from across the globe.THE TOMATOFEEDING ROBOTJapanese juice seller, Kagome, invented a robot that will feed you tomatoes with its long metal arms extended on either side of your face while you run. Originally created for the Tokyo Marathon, the robot even has a timer so that tomatoeating runners won't use up their supply too quickly.THE ROLLING BENCHIt's lunchtime and many people may be looking for a park bench to sit on, but the rain has made every surface humid. This is when the rolling bench comes in. When one side is too wet, a handle on the side can roll up another dry side for better sitting conditions. The inventions come from designer Sung Woo Park, from Seoul in South Korea.THE LED SLIPPERS(拖鞋)We all hate hurting our toes in the dark, but a revolutionary footwear design can prevent this from happening again. The slightly strange LED slippers are designed to be comfortable, yet shine your path at night. With two inbuilt LED lights at the top of each slipper, the users can direct their toes at any area that needs light.THE FOOTPOWERED BICYCLEIt's the unusual invention of German designers Tom Hambrock and Juri Spetter. Besides an unusual appearance, its function is also slightly strange, as the user must run to get the bicycle moving. As soon as the riders have enough momentum(动力), they're able to rest their feet on the back wheel and use the handlebars to control its direction.28．What can we know about the tomatofeeding robot from the text?A．It's popular with lazy eaters.B．It was the creation of a Korean.C．It was designed for a sports event.D．It has two plastic arms.29．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “humid” in the text?A．Dirty.B. Wet.C．Unsafe. D. Uncomfortable.30．Which invention was designed for its users' safety?A．The LED slippers.B．The rolling bench.C．The footpowered bicycle.D．The tomatofeeding robot.31．What can we infer about the inventions mentioned in the text?A．They bring us speed improvement.B．Their inventors are all from Asia.C．They are powered by electricity.D．They can serve us in different ways.DAs we all know，behavior and words sometimes have different meanings in some countries or areas，which is called cultural differences. For example：Shaking the head in most countries means “no”，while in India it means “yes”．In Latin America，especially Brazil and in many other countries，including China，showing the thumb upwards means everything is “OK”，while it is understood in Greece as a rude sign.Laughing is connected in most countries with happiness—in Japan it is often a sign of confusion.In the UK and Ireland，the word “compromise” has a posit ive meaning (an agreement where both parties win something)；in the USA it may rather have negative meanings (both parties lose something)．In some European countries，it is normal，or at least widely accepted，to arrive half an hour late for a dinner invitation but in Germany this would be extremely rude.If invited to dinner，in many Asian countries，it is wellmannered to leave right after the dinner: the ones who don't leave may indicate they have not eaten enough. In the European and North American countries this is considered rude，indicating that the guests only wanted to eat but wouldn't enjoy the host's company．In Africa，saying to a female friend that she has put on weight means she isphysically healthier than before，while this would be considered as an insult in Europe，North America and Australia.32．Where does “showing the thumb upwards” have a bad meaning?A．In Greece. B．In Mexico.C．In China. D．In Brazil.33．What behavior may be impolite in the USA?A．Arrive half an hour late for dinner.B. Have food left on the plate.C．Leave right after the dinner.D.

Shaking the head means “yes”．35．What is the best title for the text?A．Strange Behavior in Some CountriesB. Customs Are Different in Some CountriesC．Some Typical Examples of Cultural DifferencesD. Cultural Values Should Be Paid Much Attention to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。

AIf you're not a fan of KFC's famous Double Down hot dog, don't worry! KFC in the UK is developing a new treat: an edible coffee cup.The product is still in the trial stage and not yet available for purchase, but according to a KFC news report, the treat is made from a unique biscuit, wrapped in sugar paper, and lined with a layer of heat-resistant white chocolate, which helps keep the coffee hot. As you drink the coffee in the cup, the white chocolate lining will begin to melt slowly, and the biscuit begins to soften.But it doesn't end there --- the cups are not only edible, they also have a pleasant smell. KFC partnered with The Robin Collective, an experimental food company, to make the cups with coconut sun cream, freshly cut grass and wild flowers scents. According to the news report, that's because the scents arouse the positive memories we associate with warm weather, sunshine and summer holidays. Sounds ... deliciousA manager at KFC said, “We have been experimenting with the edible packaging i n limited quantities to see if it could be a popular product in the market. We believe if our customers occasionally like to have their cake and eat it, why wouldn’t they want to have their cup and eat it instead! ”The edible cups will only be available in the UK when it comes out.

Even when her daughter and son asked her to move to San Antonio to help their chi ldren, she politely refused . Only after a year of friendly discussion did Ms Gaf finally say yes. That was four years ago. Today all three generations regard the move to a success, giving them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities.No statistics show the number of grandparents like Garza who are moving closer to the children and grandchildren. Yet there is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing. Even President Obama’s mother-in-law, Marian Robinson, has agreed to leave Chicago and into the White House to help care for her granddaughters.

They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat.However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time-about eight hours after you wake up-your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habitsin experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.In many parts of the world, people take naps (小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates (气候), where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are nowsaying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional (传统的), people oftensuffer less from problem such as heart disease. Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleeptoo late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward.

Taking Naps in Warmer ClimateDFor thousands of years, people thought of glass as something beautiful to look at. Only recently have they come to think of it as something to look through. Stores display their goods in large glass windows. Glass bottles and jars that hold food and drink allow us to see the contents. Glass is used to make eyeglasses, microscopes, telescopes, and many other extremely useful and necessary objects.Until the Second World War, most of the glass used for optical instruments was imported from Europe. However, during the war Americans could not get European glass, and they were forced to make their own. As a result, new kinds of glasses were developed that had been previously unknown. These new effects were achieved by mixing other chemical elements with the sand. Some of these new glasses are very strong and can resist many kinds of shocks. Legend has it that a very hard glass was invented by a Roman who showed his discovery to the Emperor. When the Emperor saw the glass he feared that it would become more valuable than gold and sliver, making his treasure worthless. Therefore, he had the glassmaker killed, and secret was not discovered again for hundreds of years.In the present century, safety glass was invented for use in modern cars and planes. Safety glass is made by placing a layer of plastic between two layers of plate glass. When the outside layer of glass is broken, the pieces do not scatter and injure people. Some glass of the type is strong enough to resist bullets.Although in recent years plastics have replaced glass under conditions where glass might be easily broken, there are new uses being developed , for the greatest advantage of glass is that its component parts are inexpensive and can be found all over the world.33. With the passage of time, glass _________.A. is regarded as transparentB. is no longer seen as decorationC. is used to make things look pleasantD. is widely used to replace steel in making containers34. Why did Americans make their own glass during the Second World War?A. The war blocked the way of glass import.B. They refused to use the European glass.C. The glass made in Europe was out of date.D. They were able to make a new kind of glass.35. By telling the legend, the author wants to _________.A. prove that the Roman was the first inventor of hard glassB. support that the Amer icans were as clever as the RomansC. give some interesting information about hard glassD. provide a historical event concerned with hard glass七选五阅读How t o Offer Support and EncouragementWhether a friend, family member, or coworker, at some time or another，somebody will need support and encouragement. This could be the result of a disappointing change in life, a health change or other similar challenges. 36 Even if you do not think that you have the ability to offer the proper support and encouragement, your willingness to be there and to listen may be enough.Each situation is different, and each would require different levels of both support and encouragement. 37 Helping keep up someone’s spirits when they are feeling helpless just by letting them know you are there, can make a serious difference in their lives.38 For people in this situation, often a telephone call, or dropping in to say “hello” is more than enough. You may not feel that you are doing much of anything, but to the person who is feeling isolated the effort you take to stop and see them, or call them can make a big difference. For someone who has recently lost a job, you may be able to offer support by helping them network effectively. Or, you may be able to help them craft a new resume, apply for benefits, or a number of other “small” things that may seem insignificant to you, but to them can be a very significant event.39 However, if you let them know that you are there for them, and make it a pointto check in with them regularly, they may soon feel more comfortable and share them with you. Take for example a person who is suffering with depression. 40 They may not be willing to admit that there is something wrong. However, if you trust your instincts(直觉) and take a little extra care to support and encourage them even in little ways, youcan make a huge difference in their overall outlook.A. All too often, people feel isolated and do not know where to turn.B. You know that there is something wrong.C. So you may need support and encouragement to pull through.D. In such cases, it is natural for you to reach out and offer your support and encouragement.E. You may not always understand all of the issues going on in someone’s life.F. You know better than anyone the best ways to support and encourage someone who is going through a difficult time.G. The support you offer could be as simple as helping with simple household tasks, running errands(跑腿儿), or even being available for telephone calls.第三节语篇填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。
