My first job was to drive the oxen（牛）that ploughed the cane fields. I would walk behind an ox, guiding him with a broomstick. For $ 1 a day, I worked eight hours straight, with no food breaks.It was very tedious work, but it prepared me for life and taught me many lasting lessons. Because the plantation owners were always watching us, I had to be on time every day and work as hard as I could. I’ve never been late for any job since. I also learned about being respectful and faithful to the people you work for. More important, I earned my pay; it never entered my mind to say I was sick just because I didn’t want to work.I was only six years old, but I was doing a man’s job. Our family needed every dollar we could make because my father never earned more than $ 18 a week. Our home was a three-room wood shack with a dirty floor and no toilet. Nothing made me prouder than bringing home money to help my mother, father, two brothers and three sisters. This gave me self-esteem(自尊心), one of the most important things a person can have. When I was seven, I got work at a golf course near our house. My job was to stand down the fairway and spot the balls as they landed, so the golfers could find them. Losing a ball meant you were fired, so I never missed one. Some nights I would lie in bed and dreamt of making thousands of dollars by playing golf and being able to buy a bicycle.The more I dreamed, the more I thought. Why not? I made my first golf club out of guava limb(番石榴树枝) and a piece of pipe. Then I hammered an empty tin can into the shape of a ball. And finally I dug two small holes in the ground and hit the ball back and forth. I practiced with the same devotion and intensity. I learned working in the field — except now I was driving golf balls with club, not oxen with a broomstick.46. The word “tedious” in Paragraph 2 most probably means _______.A. difficultB. boringC. interestingD. unusual47. The writer learned that_______ from his first job.A. he should work for those who he liked mostB. he should work longer than what he was expectedC. he should never fail to say hello to his ownerD. he should be respectful and faithful to the people he worked for48 _______ gave the writer self-esteem.A. Having a family of eight peopleB. Owning his own golf courseC. Bringing money back home to help the familyD. Helping his father with the work on the plantation49. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. He wanted to be a successful golfer.B. He wanted to run a golf course near his house.C. He was satisfied with the job he got on a plantation.D. He wanted to make money by guiding oxen with a broomstick.B篇Mexico City is truly one of the most amazing cities in the world with a mixture of both the old and new world. From the moment your plane starts to land in this vast city, you know that your trip will be quite an adventure.Once in your taxi and the moment you leave the airport, you are amazed at the large amount of slow traffic. The volume of the traffic can be stressful to some.The "Paseo de la Reforma (改革大道)", running southwest across the city, is one of the major tourist and business areas in Mexico City with many high quality hotels only walking distance from great restaurants and other tourist attractions. The only problem you will have is trying to see all of these sites during your vacation time.One of the most popular attractions in this area is the National Museum of Anthropology along the northwest part of the street. There are thousands of artifacts on display showing the history of the area and numerous items found from the many Aztec sites in the area. Walking southwest from the museum, you will soon reach the Mexico City Zoo, which is a great place to spend an afternoon.Across the street from the museum is the Chapultepec Castle, once an important site in the Mexican-American war. It's also a good idea to take the train up the hill to where the castle is located as the hill is steep (陡峭的). It's important to keep in mind that Mexico City is over 7,000 feet above sea level and some feel it difficult to breathe when walking.You can take a taxi to the Coyoacan market during the evening on a weekend. It's a great place to get some cheap souvenirs （纪念品）to bring back home and to enjoy some traditional Mexican cuisine. However, you must be careful where you eat and that the meat is well cooked.50. The tourists in Mexico City may not be satisfied with______.A. the high speed of the trafficB. the heavy traffic of the cityC. the polluted air in the cityD. their safety in the city51. Which of the following shows the correct positions of the following places?P = Paseo de la Reforma M = the National Museum of AnthropologyC = the Chapultepec Castle Z = the Mexico City Zoo52. Which of the following attractions may interest those who want to study the military (of the army) history of Mexico City?A. The National Museum of Anthropology.B. The Coyoacan market.C. The Chapultepec Castle.D. The Aztec sites.AAA6-10.DCBBA11-15.DDBDA16-20.ABACC21-25.BCBBD26～45 ACDDB BCAAC DBBDB ABBDC 46-52 BDCA BDC。

A land of diversity李仕才***阅读理解。

Beijing’s Forbidden City is a place full of wonder. From its thousands of rooms to its many beautiful artifacts, there’s no wonder it’s one of China’s most popular tourist destinations.But even more than 600 years after i t was built, it’s still managing to serve up surprises. Since it was built during the Ming Dynasty, it’s estimated that the Forbidden City has survived more than 200 earthquakes. And while most structures aren’t made to survive natural disasters, let alone ones built hundreds of years ago, it seems that the Forbidden City was built to withstand anything.A recent television documentary by UK broadcaster Channel 4 explored the skills of the ancient building’s designers. A group of Chinese carpenters and engi neers were shown building a scale model (成比例模型) of one of the Forbidden City’s palaces, at one fifth of the size.To show how strong ancient Chinese architecture really is, the model was put to the test. It was subjected to a simulated (模拟的) earthquake of 9.5 on the Richter scale – equivalent to the largest ever recorded quake – and survived. Instead of falling apart, the model was just moved gently during the test.According to experts, the answer to the Forbidden City’s strength, as well as other ancient Chinese structures’, lies in dougong– a centuries-old building method invented in China. This is the name for special brackets on buildings. Despite being held together without any nails or glue, the brackets are perfect at keeping structures together when the weather gets rough.“Dougong design is an important earthquake-resistant feature of classical Chinese structures because the framework changes in shape when under pressure, much like the shock absorbers (减震器) of a car,〞 according to Chinese National Geography.“Ancient Chinese craftsmen created structures that were both enduring and aesthetically (在美学方面) pleasing using dougong, revealing their advanced understanding of mathematics, architecture, materials, and structural science.〞The Forbidden City draws visitors because of its rich history and cultural significance, but perhaps it should add one more thing to its list of attractions: earthquake shelter.1. What is the article mainly about?A.What has made the Forbidden City a popular tourist destination.B.What has helped the Forbidden City survive so many earthquakes.C.The characteristics of Chinese architecture during the Ming Dynasty.D.A variety of building methods used in ancient Chinese structures.2. Which of the following can best replace the underlined phrase “was subjected to〞in Paragraph 4?A.sufferedB.was controlled byC.obeyedD.was affected by3. What was the aim of the test in the UK documentary?A.To reproduce a real earthquake from the Ming Dynasty.B.To discover a long-lost Chinese building methodC.To explain the impact of earthquakes on ancient buildings.D.To prove the strength of ancient Chinese architecture.4. What is “dougong〞 according to the text?A.A paint that gives Chinese buildings an attractive look.B.A tool used by ancient people to measure earth-quakes.C. Special building parts that keep a traditional Chinese building together,D.A building piece located in the center of a traditional Chinese house.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了紫禁城的斗拱设计帮助它能够在屡次地震中幸存。

Unit 1 A land of diversityⅠ.阅读理解The speaker, a teacher from a commun ity college, addressed a sympathetic audience. Heads nodded in agreement when he said, “High school English teachers are not doing their jobs.” He described the inadequacies of his students, all high school graduates who can use language only at a grade 9 level. I was unable to determine from his answers to my questions how this grade 9 level had been established.My topic is not standards nor its decline. What the speaker was really saying is that he is no longer young; he has been teaching for sixteen years, and is able to think and speak like a mature adult.My point is that the frequent complaint of one generation about the one immediately following it is inevitable. It is also human nature to look for the reasons for our dissatisfaction. Before English became a school subject in the late nineteenth century, it was difficult to find the target of the blame for language deficiencies（缺陷）. But since then, English teachers have been under constant attack.The complainers think they have hit upon an original idea. As their own command of the language improves, they notice that young people do not have this same ability. Unaware that their own ability has developed through the years, they assume the new generation of young people must be hopeless in this respect. To the eyes and ears of sensitive adults the language of the young always seems inadequate.Since this concern about the decline and fall of the English language is not perceived as a generational phenomenon but rather as something new and peculiar to today’s young people, it naturally follows that today’s English teachers cannot be doing their jobs. Otherwise, young people would not commit offenses against the language.1.The speaker the author mentioned in the passage believed that .A.the language of the younger generation is usually inferior to that of the older generationB.the students had a poor command of English because they didn’t work hard enoughC.he was an excellent language teacher because he had been teaching English f or sixteen yearsD.English teachers should be held responsible for the students’poor command of English2.In the author’s opinion, the speaker ________.A.gave a correct judgment of the English level of the studentsB.had exaggerated the language problems of the st udentsC.was right in saying that English teachers were not doing their jobsD.could think and speak intelligently3.The author’s attitude towards the speaker’s remarks is ________.A.neutralB.positiveC.criticalpromising4.In the passage the author argues that .A.it is unfair to blame the English teachers for the language deficiencies of the studentsB.young people would not commit offences against the language if the teachers did their jobs properlyC.to eliminate language defi ciencies one must have sensitive eyes and earsD.to improve the standard of English requires the effort of several generationsChinese female scientist Tu Youyou won the 2015 Nobel Prize in medicine on October 5 for her discoveries concerning a novel treatment against malaria（疟疾）. This is the first Nobel Prize given to a Chinese scientist for work carried out within China.Tu shared the prize with Irish-born William Campbell and Satoshi Omura of Japan, who were honored for their revolutionary anti-roundworm treatment. 84-year-old Tu is awarded this prize for her contribution to cutting the death rate of malaria, reducing patients’suffering and promoting mankind’s health. Although she received several medical awards in the past, the 2015 Nobel Prize is definitely the most privilege reward that recognizes Tu’s dedication and perseveran ce in discovering artemisinin（青蒿素）, the key drug that battles malaria friendly parasites（寄生虫）. However, her route to the honor has been anything but traditional. She won the Nobel Prize for medicine, b ut she doesn’t have a medical degree or a PhD. In China, she is even being called the “three noes” winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and she’s never worked overseas. No wonder her success has stirred China’s national pride and helped promote confidence of native Chinese scientists.The fact that Tu has none of these three backgrounds reminds us that science should be more accessible to all. One shall be able to become a scientist no matter what kind of background he or she comes from, as long as one dives into scientific research. There have been discussions on people who really love science but are never able to achieve much during their whole life. Their contributions can never be ignored. They work so hard to prove the wrong way so that the future researchers will be closer to the right one.As the first Chinese mainland Nobel Prize Winner of natural science award, Tu’s record-breaking winning also serves as a reminder to those who are too eager for instant success. Science is never about instant success. Tu spent decades on scientific research before its value is officially acknowledged. There is no way to measure how much one devotes to science and compare it with how much reward heor she may get.5.It can be concluded from the text that .A.Tu worked home and abroad to conduct her researchB.Tu got the Nobel Prize for her anti roundworm treatmentC.the Nobel Prize is the first award to recognize her workD.her discovery of artemisinin has helped to cut malaria death rate6.The author seems to agree that a person who is more likely to become a scientistis the one with .A.a sense of national prideB.relevant academic knowledgeC.a desire to achieve successD.enthusiasm for scientific research7.In writing the passage, the author intends to .rm readers of the news and make commentsB.discourage the pursuit of instant success in scienceC.remind readers of the principles of scientific researchD.praise the award winner and encourage scientific researchⅡ.语法填空A man looking at his smartphone while walkin g across a railway crossing in Nanjing 1 （have） a close knock on Oct 22. He was so 2 （absorb） in his smartphone that he didn’t see a train approaching until it brushed past him, 3 （throw） him to the ground. This should serve 4 a warning that people shouldbe aware of their surroundings, especially 5 crossing roads.6 （lucky）, the man survived a brush with death, but the incident forced the driver 7 （stop）the train. An 18-minute delay followed the incident, 8 led to a break in the running of other trains on the route.Smartphone 9 （addict） has spread like an infectious disease. It’s evident that it will do great harm to society. What’s even 10 （bad）, some addicts become impatient with relatives and friends.Some people blame the smartphone for the tragedy, yet in fact people’s weakening self-control and self-discipline are to blame.Ⅲ.短文改错Dear Editor,I am a Senior Three student. Recently we had carried out a survey—“To whomdo you go when you in trouble?” The results are as follows.61% of the students being surveyed select friends or schoolmates as their ideal listeners when they have troubles, the reason of it is that they are in the same age group and have a better understanding of each other. Another 22% choose teachers and parents to talk. They suggest that teachers and parents be rich in life and educational experience. Nevertheless, there are also 17% who don’t share their troubles at all. They said that their troubles are none of others’ business, and they find it harder to get along with others.It is not easy to reach definite conclusions basing on such a survey example.However, some general comments can be made. There seems clear from the respons e that some students lack communication with others and teachers and parents need to play a more important role in their lives.Yours sincerely,Li Hua答案：Ⅰ.阅读理解A语篇导读：社区大学的一位老师关于教师有责于学生英语差的发言得到了观众的支持，但作者却有不同的看法。

选修8 Unit 1 A land of diversity李仕才一、阅读理解AAbout three decades ago, China was known as the “Bicycle Kingdom”. But the twowheel way of transport's popularity began to fade, with many bikes soon replaced by their fuelpowered competitors.But recent months have seen a revival of the bike across China, with an increasing number of people choosing to cycle instead of driving to schools, to workplaces or to do sightseeing. The introduction of bikesharing systems has brought the trend to a new level.People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphones. The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They're popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the “last mile proble m”， which refers to the final leg of a person's journey.However, the systems have also led to problems such as illegal parking, damage and theft. Last month, two nurses in Beijing were placed under arrest for five days for putting locks on two shared bikes.“Bikesharing is a greener method of transport and provides a userfriendly experience，” said Liu Xiaoming, viceminister of transport. “But it's a combination of online and offline business. Operators are usually strong in online services, but lac k offline business experience, which causes problems.”Now, Chinese service operators are trying to handle these problems. For example, a bikesharing company called Mobike sets a 100point credit score for each user, with points taken in the case of bad behavior. Once a score drops below 80, bike rental is increased to 100 yuan per 30 minutes, up from 0.5－1 yuan.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了近期共享单车在中国流行的原因、所遇到的问题及解决办法。

Thanks to the Internet and technology, the world has become one big market, and you can sit in the comforts of your home and shop for anything you want. You no longer have to drive to the actual shops and fish out what you want. Simply filter (筛选) your search, sitting on your sofa, select the desired product, and make the required payment. The shipment will reach your doorstep.However, everything comes at a price; so does online shopping. It's subject to more threats, especially when you make online shopping mistakes. For example, you may be an impulsive (冲动的) buyer and buy something without reading all the details of the product properly. If you don't read the product description carefully, there are high chances that the item you receive might not match what you expect.The biggest hurdle in online shopping is that you cannot inspect your product beforehand. Therefore, take a cue from the experiences of other consumers from the online posts. Additionally, you may make mistakes like giving an incorrect address, typing incorrect quantity details. Such mistakes can make you end up getting a delayed delivery.Not following safety tips while shopping is also a common mistake you may commit. For instance, you may not take into account other charges, or use a public WiFi to make a purchase, which may give away your card details. So ensure online safety while making a purchase online.Luckily, if some mistake has occurred, you can make an attempt to repair it. For example, you can contact the customer service and register your complaint. It's better to have a written record by also sending an email to the company. It's advisable to have your purchase transaction well documented, so that you can provide legal evidence to the company.1.If you don't read the product descriptions thoroughly, you'll probably ________.A.forget to follow safety tipsB.be addicted to online shopping easilyC.receive an item you don't wantD.make a purchase as you expect2.What can prevent the product reaching you in time?A.Not reading its consumer reviews.B.Not posting letter to the company in advance.C.Not taking other charges into consideration.D.Not checking information before placing an order.3.Your card information may be stolen if you do online shopping ________.A.with a public Wi-FiB.on a private websiteC.in your friend's storeD.in a trustworthy company4.What should we do when online shopping goes wrong?A.Make a list of your requirements.B.Report the online shop to the government.C.Send the purchase information to the police.D.Get your complaint registered at the customer service.参考答案： 1.C; 2.D; 3.A; 4.D解析： 1.[细节题。

I love to read before I go to sleep.It usually makes me feel calm.But a big part of this depends on what I read.I love to read Oor Wullie and The Broons.Very often I'm smiling before I go to sleep.I decide to write about this in a blog because I find that so many of us go to sleep with stress.Before we go to sleep，we may run over the day in our minds，and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV，read the news on our smart phones or tablets，or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming(宣告)all the good that's happening in the world and work emails make us feel that we're still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but，with the odd exception，I mostly avoid anything that is too mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless it's something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating，when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up a trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure I get a peaceful night's sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.I'd suggest you find lighthearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime，especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time，or if you find difficulty winding at the end of a day.It is the thing that can gently turn your attention towards lightness and ease.If your material makes you laugh，then you may feel even better.Several studies show that laughter boosts happy chemicals in the brain，it strengthens the immune system，it's good for the heart，and it is most definitely good for mental health.It even helps us improve our relationships.And if you do happen to pick up a copy of Oor Wullie or The Broons，I hope you find it just as entertaining as I do.1．What can we learn about Oor Wullie and The Broons?A．They make people run over the past days.B．They are the best books to be read before people sleep.C．They are extremely popular with young people.D．They make people feel relaxed and happy.2．What can we know from the text?A．Oor Wullie and The Broons are the author's favorite books.B．A comfortable blanket makes people go to sleep easily.C．The author sometimes reads something about inspirations.D．Reading something stimulating at night helps get a peaceful sleep.3．What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A．What material brings us laughter.B．How laughter affects our health.C．What benefits laughter brings to us.D．Why laughter is good for us.4．What's the main purpose of the text?A．To show the importance of reading before sleeping.B．To prove the importance of a good mood before sleeping.C．To tell us how to make ourselves stay relaxed before sleeping.D．To explain how to choose a book worthy to be read before sleeping.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

Unit 1 A land of diversity一、阅读理解。

As my husband，Doug，stood on the busy New York city street trying to stop a cab, I angled the stroller(婴儿车)away from the cold December wind and rain.I knelt down and kissed my daughter on her cheek where veins crept up(静脉突出)the side of her tiny face.Frustrated and wet，my husband gave up his attempt to flag down a cab.I knew the feeling.Just after her first birthday，our daughter Katie was diagnosed with a rare brain disorder.Since that moment，Doug and I felt like runners in a marathon race where the finish line kept disappearing.We knew Katie was running out of time.It had taken months before we finally had a name for the disorder，vein of Galen malformation，but we were told only a handful of specialists in the world were qualified to perform the precise surgeries.Now，as we finally found a brilliant doctor to save our girl，we were trapped in a strange city in the cold rain.Just at the moment，a middleaged woman pulled over and said，“Pardon me？May I offer you a ride？”Before we could say anything，she continued，“It's really no trouble for me.Just get on.”It was then that I noticed her thick Irish tongue，an accent that warmed me like hot soup.We could simply say，“Thanks！Roosevelt Hospital，please，” and settled in her car for th e ride.I don't know how she knew，maybe she noticed the veins and asked，“Are you going for the baby？”I nodded my head，choking back a tiny sob.At the hospital we thanked her a dozen times for the ride.The woman hugged me and I noticed her face was wet with tears in worry.She promised to pray for us before she left.After three more visits to New York and two more brain surgeries，Katie is cured.But the voice of the Irish Angel still rang as a constant reminder of a tiny ray of light that appeared on our darkest days.1．What were the family doing on the street?A．Watching a marathon race.B．Protecting their daughter from cold.C．Trying to ride a taxi.D．Playing with their daughter.2．What was the trouble with Katie's illness?A．It was a terrible brain cancer.B．It was impossible to be cured.C．It was hard to name the disease.D．Its surgeries were hard to perform.3．Why was the woman driver in tears when leaving?A．Because she knew the girl had run out of time.B．Because she had sympathy for the family's misfortune.C．Because the family promised to pray for her.D．Because there were veins on the little girl's face.4．What's the best title for this passage?A．An Irish Angel in New YorkB．An Adventure in New YorkC．An Angel of Roosevelt HospitalD．An Unforgettable Cab Ride【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。
