Chuck’s services are aimed at people who need a motivational boost to go walking, those who don’t feel safe walking alone in some areas, and those who are afraid that people might see them walking by themselves and think that they have no friends.“I wear my The People Walker shirt upon request and on the first walk with a new client, so they can be 100% sure it’s me,”McCarthy says. However, he admits some people are a bit uncomfortable with this policy, as they don’t necessarily want everyone to know that they’re being walked.

I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistaes, and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying “T ae the etra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “e tra minute” rule. When my children were young and liely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor lie moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, orsomething that required a little more wor such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp cornersof a glass coffee table.I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. W e all now people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” Whenmy father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, Itold him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought about the fact that he was 84 years old and I realied that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to wor on my day off after all.I now there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only”about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it taes an etra minute to do something right, or it occasionally taes an hour or two in my busy schedule to mae a personal connection, I now that I’m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best ind of insurance for my emotional well-being.5. Which of the following is an eample of the “etra minute” rule?A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated.B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron woring.C. Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.D. Wait for an etra minute so that the stea tastes better.6. The underlined word “foregone”in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .A. abandonedB. avoidedC. lacedD. taen7. The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to .A. join in the holiday celebration of the companyB. eep her appointment with the eye doctorC. finish her wor before the deadline approachedD. meet her father who was already an old man8. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Two Saddest WordsB. The Most Useful RuleC. The Peace of MindD. The Emotional Well-beingCMelinda Saar wasn't epecting any phone calls. Saar was woring late in her office at the First Internet ban of California. By 1045 that night she was almost ready to go home when the phone rang. Picing it up, she heard a guard shouting, “There is a fire! Get out of there.” Saar didn't panic. She figured that it was just a small fire. Her office building was huge. There were 62 floors and her des was on the 37th floor. Saar called out to office mate Stephen Osas, who also stayed late to wor. But when they got out to the hallway, they were met by a cloud of blac smoe. Rushing bac, Saar shut the door and filled the space at the bottom of the door with her jacet to eep the smoe out.Then they called 911. Before they could call their families, however, the line went dead. That meant that they were completely cut off from the outside world. All they could do was wait and hope someone would come to rescue them.Minutes ticed by. Smoe began to float into the office. Soon it became hard for them tobreathe. Looing around, Saar noticed a small worroom. It seemed to have cleaner air. So they crowded there. That helped for a while, but in time even the worroom was filled with deadly smoe. Hopeless, they tried to brea the windows, but the glass was not breaable. Everything they threw at it just bounced bac. Defeated, they struggled bac to the worroom. They felt wea and diy. Soon Saar found Osas had passed out.As Saar and Osas lay near death, rescuers were rushing to find them. At last, at about 4 a.m., firefighters found them.Saar and Osas new they were lucy to be alive. Sunday is my birthday, Saar told a reporter. She would be turning 29. but she new she had already got the best present possible—the gift of life.9. What did Saar and Osas do when they were stopped by the fire?A. they tried to run down the stairs.B. they called their families.C. they waited where they were.D. they rushed bac and shut the door.10. The following helped Saar and Osas survive the fire ecept .A. calling 911 for helpB. shutting the door and eeping the smoe out with a jacetC. breaing the windows to get some fresh airD. crowding in a small worroom for clean air11. what can we conclude from Saar's action in the fire?A. she was trained as a firefighterB. she was cleverer than OsasC. she had had the eperience of being caught in fire.D. she remained calm in the face of dangerDA new study has discovered that meditation( 冥想)and oygen sport together reducedepression. The Rutgers University study found that this mind and body combination, done twice a wee for only two months, reduced the symptoms for a group of students by 40 percent “We are ecitedby the findings because we saw such a meaningful improvement in both clinically depressed and non—depressed students,”said lead author Dr.Brandon Alderman. “Itis the first time that both of these two behavioral ways have been looed at together for dealing with depression.”Researchers believe the two activities have an interactive effect in combating depression. Alderman and Dr. Tracey Shors discovered that a combination of mental and physical training (MAP)enabled students with major depressive disorder not to let problems or negative thoughtsdefeat them.Rutgers researchers say those who participated in the study began with 30 minutes of focused attention meditation followed by 30 minutes of oygen sport. They were told that if their thoughts drifted to the past or the future they should refocus on their breathing, enabling those with depression to accept moment-to-moment changes in attention.Shors, who studies the production of new brain cells in the hippocampus—part of the brain involved in memory and learning—says scientists have shown in animal models thatoygen sport eercise eeps a large number of certain cells alive.The idea for the human intervention( 干预)came from her laboratory studies, she says,with the main goal of helping individuals acquire new sills so that they can learn to recover from stressful life events.By learning to focus their attention and eercise,people who are fighting depression canacquire new learning sills that can help them process information and reduce the overwhelming recollection of memories from the past,Shors says.“We now these treatments can be practiced over a lifetime and that they will be effective in improving mental healt h.”said Alderman. “The good news is that this intervention can bepracticed by anyone at any time and at no cost.”12. What made the research so different?A. Adopting a way of meaningful talB. Combining the two ways to treat depressionC. Comparing the depressed with the non-depressedD. Treating depression with special medicine13. The underlined word “co mbating” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by A. identifying B. distinguishingC. fightingD. eamining14. What did the participants do in the research?A. They too eercise while thining quietly.B. They did oygen sport half an hour before thining.C. They too eercise longer than they thought.D. They thought quietly and then too eercise.15. What is Shors’main purpose of her studies?A. To offer people a new method to treat stress.B. To study the production of new brain cells.C. To find outcertain brain cells of humans.D. To decide the lins between stress and eercise.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分)You’re growing up.

I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistaes, and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying “T ae the etra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “e tra minute” rule. When my children were young and liely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor lie moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, orsomething that required a little more wor such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp cornersof a glass coffee table.I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. W e all now people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” Whenmy father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, Itold him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought about the fact that he was 84 years old and I realied that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to wor on my day off after all.I now there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only”about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it taes an etra minute to do something right, or it occasionally taes an hour or two in my busy schedule to mae a personal connection, I now that I’m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best ind of insurance for my emotional well-being.5. Which of the following is an eample of the “etra minute” rule?A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated.B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron woring.C. Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.D. Wait for an etra minute so that the stea tastes better.6. The underlined word “foregone”in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .A. abandonedB. avoidedC. lacedD. taen7. The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to .A. join in the holiday celebration of the companyB. eep her appointment with the eye doctorC. finish her wor before the deadline approachedD. meet her father who was already an old man8. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Two Saddest WordsB. The Most Useful RuleC. The Peace of MindD. The Emotional Well-beingCMelinda Saar wasn't epecting any phone calls. Saar was woring late in her office at the First Internet ban of California. By 1045 that night she was almost ready to go home when the phone rang. Picing it up, she heard a guard shouting, “There is a fire! Get out of there.” Saar didn't panic. She figured that it was just a small fire. Her office building was huge. There were 62 floors and her des was on the 37th floor. Saar called out to office mate Stephen Osas, who also stayed late to wor. But when they got out to the hallway, they were met by a cloud of blac smoe. Rushing bac, Saar shut the door and filled the space at the bottom of the door with her jacet to eep the smoe out.Then they called 911. Before they could call their families, however, the line went dead. That meant that they were completely cut off from the outside world. All they could do was wait and hope someone would come to rescue them.Minutes ticed by. Smoe began to float into the office. Soon it became hard for them tobreathe. Looing around, Saar noticed a small worroom. It seemed to have cleaner air. So they crowded there. That helped for a while, but in time even the worroom was filled with deadly smoe. Hopeless, they tried to brea the windows, but the glass was not breaable. Everything they threw at it just bounced bac. Defeated, they struggled bac to the worroom. They felt wea and diy. Soon Saar found Osas had passed out.As Saar and Osas lay near death, rescuers were rushing to find them. At last, at about 4 a.m., firefighters found them.Saar and Osas new they were lucy to be alive. Sunday is my birthday, Saar told a reporter.

The Rutgers University study found that this mind and body combination, done twice a wee for only two months, reduced the symptoms for a group of students by 40 percent “We are ecitedby the findings because we saw such a meaningful improvement in both clinically depressed and non—depressed students,”said lead author Dr.Brandon Alderman. “Itis the first time that both of these two behavioral ways have been looed at together for dealing with depression.”Researchers believe the two activities have an interactive effect in combating depression. Alderman and Dr. Tracey Shors discovered that a combination of mental and physical training (MAP)enabled students with major depressive disorder not to let problems or negative thoughtsdefeat them.Rutgers researchers say those who participated in the study began with 30 minutes of focused attention meditation followed by 30 minutes of oygen sport. They were told that if their thoughts drifted to the past or the future they should refocus on their breathing, enabling those with depression to accept moment-to-moment changes in attention.Shors, who studies the production of new brain cells in the hippocampus—part of the brain involved in memory and learning—says scientists have shown in animal models thatoygen sport eercise eeps a large number of certain cells alive.The idea for the human intervention( 干预)came from her laboratory studies, she says,with the main goal of helping individuals acquire new sills so that they can learn to recover from stressful life events.By learning to focus their attention and eercise,people who are fighting depression canacquire new learning sills that can help them process information and reduce the overwhelming recollection of memories from the past,Shors says.“We now these treatments can be practiced over a lifetime and that they will be effective in improving mental healt h.”said Alderman. “The good news is that this intervention can bepracticed by anyone at any time and at no cost.”12. What made the research so different?A. Adopting a way of meaningful talB. Combining the two ways to treat depressionC. Comparing the depressed with the non-depressedD. Treating depression with special medicine13. The underlined word “co mbating” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by A. identifying B. distinguishingC. fightingD. eamining14. What did the participants do in the research?A. They too eercise while thining quietly.B. They did oygen sport half an hour before thining.C. They too eercise longer than they thought.D. They thought quietly and then too eercise.15. What is Shors’main purpose of her studies?A. To offer people a new method to treat stress.B. To study the production of new brain cells.C. To find outcertain brain cells of humans.D. To decide the lins between stress and eercise.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分)You’re growing up.

AWhen I was a boy there were no smart phones, and our television only got one clearly. Still, I never felt bored. The fields, hills and woodlands around my home were the perfect play ground whose adventures were only limited by my imagination. I can remember once hiking to a nearby lake and walking slowly around it. At the back of it I was amazed to find an old dirt road that I had never seen before. It was full of muddy tyre tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides. but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure.I walked on and on for what seemed like hours. I was sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ear"turn around and head back home" ,but I was stubborn and walked on. There was still neither a car nor a house in sight. I noticed that the sun was starting to go down and I grew scared. I didn't want to end up trapped on this road, and I was worried that it would be dark before I could make my way back to the lake again.I continued to walk on with something growing inside of me. My heart was pounding and my legs were aching. I was almost in tears when I saw something in the distance. It was a house that I recognized. I jumped up and down and laughed out loud. It was still over a mile away, but my legs felt like feathers and I hurried back to my house in no time. I walked in with a big smile on my face just in time for dinner. Then I ended my adventure with a good night's sleep.I often thought of that experience recently. Actually, in our life all roads,no matter how they twist and turn, can lead us home again. They can lead us to our homes here on the earth.They can lead us to our homes in our hearts. May you always walk your path with love! May you always help your fellow travelers along the way! And may your roads always lead you home again21.Why did the author hardly feel bored when he was young?A. He could watch TV all day.B. He could have fun in nature.C.

How did the author feel when he was exploring the dirt road?A. He was contradictory in mind.B. He was unconscious of danger ahead.C. He was worried to be trapped in the woods.D. He was afraid of being scolded by his parents.24. What may be the best title for the passage?A. Every Effort Is WorthwhileB. All Roads Lead HomeC. Be Determined in Your LifeD. Be Brave to AdventureBA day in the life of 18-year-old David Lanster is full of typical teenage stuff: school, baseball practice and homework. And then he starts cooking. "Some nights I'm up until 1: 00 a.m. making pies,or even later if we're cooking beef, "said the student at Ransom Everglades High School in Florida,US.For the past year, Lanster and Kelly Moran, his classmate, have been hosting fancy dinner parties at Lanster's parents' home. Their meals have 17 courses and are all made by them.Their guests used to give them gifts to thank them until the pair decided to do something nice for charity(慈善). “We got some really great Miami Heat tickets, a nice watch, and many kitchen gadgets(小器具)," Lanster said.“ But we wanted to make this something positive for people other than us.Lanster and Moran focused on Common Threads, a charity that aims to teach kids in poor communities to cook and make healthy eating choices. The young cooks ask their guests to give however much they want as payment for their meals. It all goes to Common Threads because Lanster's parents cover their food costs. After their last12-person event, Lanster and Moran gave ﹩1,600 to the charity.Now, they're taking their show out of the kitchen and on the road. They have started to organize private dinner parties with a similar model:the host pays for the ingredients,and guests make a donation to a chatity of their choice.Without formal training, Lanster said he had been interested in cooking since he helped his mom in the kitchen when he was young. He learned how to cook by reading cookbooks and watching TV programs. Outside the kitchen, the two are busy preparing there applications. Neither of them is sure what they will do in the future, but they've promised their parents that they will leave professional cooking alone until they finish school.25. How is Lanster's life different from other teenagers' lives?A. He plans to become a professional chef.B. He plays baseball every day after school.C. He goes to a cooking school in his spare time.D. He holds dinner parties after a normal school day.26.What will Lanster and Moran usually do after a private dinner party?A. Receive thank-you cards from the guests.B. Visit the poor children at Common Threads.C. Ask the guests to donate money to the charity.D. Cover the food costs with the money collected.27. Which of the following words can best describe Lanster and Moran?A. Ambitious.B. Generous.C. Creative.D. Optimistic.cThe hit movie Notting Hill (诺丁山) begins with a famous scene. Hugh Grant bumps into Julia Roberts and spills orange juice all over her. After the collision, Grant repeatedly says,"I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry".His actions in this scene are very British. If Roberts' character were from British. Then he would probably apologize repeatedly as well- even if the crash were not her fault. But this doesn't happen in the movie, as Roberts is from the US.A report in The Telegraph once said that three quarters of British people apologize when they bump into someone in the street一regardless of whether they are responsible or not. In fact, Britons use"sorry" in many situations, For example, if they mishear someone, they say "Sorry?"The person they are talking to will also apologize by replying, "No, I sorry!" This can go on or up to five minutes as they compete over who is the most sorry.Why are Britons so sorry? Mark Tyrell,a psychology writer in the UK, thinks that their apologetic tendencies are rooted in British class system. We say sorry because historically the new middle class in Britain had to apologize for not being the working class but also for not really being the upper class." Another theory is that they apologize to avoid conflicts. For example, If they bump into someone, he might get ang ry. To avoid this, they instantly say “Sorry!"True manners are about being considerate, and today's constant use of apologizing shows that we are perhaps not as thoughtful as we once were. The word “sorry" has lost some of its meaning. Do you see my point? Sorry, it might just be a British thing.28Why does the author mention a scene in the movie Notting Hill at the beginning?A.To give an example of British modesty.B.To introduce different ways of saying sorry.C.To show what kind of men are considered gentlemen in the UK.D.To draw our attention to when and how British people say sorry.29.Which of the following statements might Mark Tyrell agree with?A.People should not apologize if they are not responsible.B.Americans care less about manners than British people do.C.That British people apologize so much is linked to the class system.D.British people care too much about which social class they are from.30.What can be inferred from the passage?A.It's unnecessary for British people to be so polite.B.The overuse of apologizing shows Britons are truly sincere.C.People should not stick to the traditional use of the word “sorry".ing "sorry" more doesn't necessarily mean people are more polite.31.What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?A.To explore the best way of saying sorry.B.To explain why Britons overuse the word " sorry".C.To show how saying sorry has changed over time.D.To suggest many British people lack traditional mannersDImagine you're standing in line to buy as nackata Store.You step up to the counterand the cashier scans your food. Next, you have to pay, But instead of scanning a QR Code (二维的)with your smart phone, you just hold out your hand so the cashier can scan your fingerprint, or, a camera scans your face, your eyes or even your ear.Now, this type of technology might not be far away. As technology companies move away from the traditional password, biometric (生物特征识别的) security, which includes fingerprint, face and voice ID, is becoming increasing]y popular.In 2013, Apple introduced the iPhone 5s, one of the first smart phones with a fingerprint scaner. Since then, using one's fingerprint to unlock a phone and make mobile payments has become commonplace, bringing convenience to our lives. And since 2016,Samsung has featured eye-caning technology in it stop smart phone while Apple's new iPhone X can even scan a user's face. But despite its popularity, experts warn that biometrics might not be as secure as weimagine. “Biometrics is ideally good in practice, not so much," said John Michener, abiometrics expert.When introducing the new iPhone's face ID feature, Phil Schiller, Apple's senior vice president, said, “The chance that a random person in the population could look at your iPhone X and unlock it with their face is about one in a million." But it's already been done. In a video posted on a community website Reddit, two brothers showed how they were each able to unlock the same iPhone X using their own face. And they aren't even twins."We may expect too much from biometrics," Anil Jain, a computer science professor at Michigan State University, told CBS News. "No security systems are perfect."Earlier last year, Jain found a way to trick biometric security. Using a printed copy of a thumbprint, she was able to unlock a dead person's smart phone for the police, according to a tech website Splinter." It's good to see biometrics being used more," Jain told CBS News," because it adds another factor for security. But using multiple security measures is the best defense.32.Which is the latest identification technology in a smart phone according to the passage?A.Face scanning.B.Eye scanning.C.QR Code scanning.D.Fingerprint scanning.33.What is a major problem of the iPhone X's face ID system?A.It takes too long to unlock the phone.B.It often fails to recognize its owner's face.C.Face data can be used for other purposesD.Different faces can be used to unlock the same phone.34.What is Anil Jain's opinion about biometric security?A.It is as secure as traditional measures.B. It is perfect without much improvement.C.It has caused much trouble for the police.D .It should be used with other security measures.35.What does the author intend to tell us in this passage?A.The popularity of biometrics.B.Security problems of biometrics,C. Various problems with biometrics.D.Great changes caused by biometrics.七选五Helen Keller once wrote, "The unselfish effort to bring cheer to others will be the beginning of a happier life for ourselves.”____36___ The UN has set December5 as International V olunteers Day to give recognition to these peopleNineteen-year-old Andrew Makhoul was a commumcations major at the University ofPennsylvania.

We’re on holiday in Spain now. We spent a few days in Barcelona first. It’s a great place but we had a great time though I didn’t feel well one day. Anyway, after we left Barcelona, wecome to spend several days in Granada. And guess what? We couldn’t find a hotel because there were quite a lot of tourist. Then someone said, “why not trying the cave dwellings(住宅) here?” We thought he was joking, but here we were really in a cave dwelling and it’s wonderfully. Tomorrow we’re going to visit a palace in Granada. We’re enjoying it very much that we don’t want to leave this amazed place.

Twenty-four percent of Britons admit lying about how many snacks they eat with 33 percent of women lying, compared to 20 percent of men.Unfortunately,it's as if we are not likely to do anything positive to counteract the sweet treats.8.According to the passage,women usually put weight on first______.A.on the face B.on the legsC.on the feet D.in the middle9.What's the main reason of eating snacks in the office?A.Colleagues eat them to save money.B.Staff use them to cope with their lunches.C.Colleagues often bring them to office.D.Bosses invite staff to eat them.10.Why do office workers eat a "quick fix" lunch?A.Because it has much of nutrition.B.Because it has little effect on weight gain.C.Because it has little effect on general well-being.D.Because they have a short time to have their lunches.11.It can be inferred that British women are______.A.less likely to lie on snacks than menB.more likely to lie on snacks than menC.more ashamed of eating snacks than menD.less ashamed of eating snacks than menWhenever something looks interesting or beautiful,there's a natural impulse to catch and own it—which means, in this day and age,that we can't help reaching for our phones to take a picture when seeing beautiful things.Though this would seem to be a wonderful solution,there are two big problems about taking pictures.Firstly, we're likely to be so busy taking the pictures that we forget to look at the world whose beauty and interest inspire us to take a photograph in the first place.And secondly,because we feel the pictures are safely stored in our phones,we never get around to look at them.These problems would seem to be very much of today,a consequence of the tiny phones in our pockets.But they were noticed right at the beginning of the history of photography,when the average camera was the size of a grandfather clock.The first person who noticed them was the English art critic,John Ruskin.He was a travelling lover who realized that most tourists failed to notice or remember the beautiful things they saw.He argued that humans have a born tendency(倾向)to respond to beauty and desire to keep it,but that there are bad expressions of this desire.At worst,we get into buying souvenirs or taking photographs.But,in Ruskin's eyes, there's one thing we should do and that is attempting to draw the interesting things we see,and it doesn't matter whether we happen to have any talent for doing so.Before the invention of photography,people used to draw far more than theydo today.It was an active necessity. But in the mid-19th century,photography killed drawing.It became something only "artists" would ever do,so Ruskin spent four years on a campaign to get people drawing again.So if drawing had value even when it was practiced by people with no talent,it was for Ruskin because drawing can teach us to notice properly rather than watch absent-mindedly(心不在焉地).When describing what lies before our eyes with our own hands,we naturally move from a position of observing beauty in a loose way to one where we acquire a deep understanding of its parts.12.What does the underlined word "impulse" mean?A.Interest.B.Urge.C.Habit.D.Reaction.13.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A.An effective solution to storing something nice.B.Reasons for taking pictures in the first place.C.Problems related with taking photos.D.Methods of storing pictures in phones.14.It can be inferred that John Ruskin______.A.lived at the origin of photographyB.lived at the origin of drawingC.studied the history of photographyD.was an English literature critic15.How did John Ruskin advise us to remember our travel?A.By taking photographs.B.By buying meaningful souvenirs.C.By writing some travel notes.D.By trying drawing what we see.二、七选五Kids with special needs refer to any kid who might need extra help because of a medical,emotional,or learning problem.For example,kids who cannot walk need

河南省郑州市第一中学2018届高三上学期一轮复习模拟测试(一)英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择After two years of careful consideration, Robert McCrum has reached a conclusion on his selection of the 100 greatest novels written in English. Take a look at a few in his list: The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Banyan (1678)A story of a man in search of truth told with the simple clarity and beauty of Bunyan’s prose makes this an English classic.Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe (1719)By the end of the 19th century, no book in English literary history had enjoyed more editions and translations. This world-famous novel is a complex literature that one cannot resist.Gulliver’s Travels by Jonathan Swift (1726)A great work that’s been repeatedly printed, Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels comes third in our list of the best novels written in English.Clarissa by Samuel Richardson (1748)Clarissa is a tragic heroine, pressured by her dishonorable family to marry a wealthy man she dislikes, in the book that Samuel Johnson described as “the first book in the world that shows the knowledge about the human heart”.Tom Jones by Henry Fielding (1749)Tom Jones is a classic English novel that gets the spirit of its age and whose characters are well-known since they have come to represent the society at that time.Emma by Jane Austen (1816)Jane Austen’s Emma is her most outstanding work, mixing the best parts of her early books with a deep sense of feelings.The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket by Edgar Allan Poe (1838)Edgar Allan Poe’s only novel—a classic adventure story with supernatural elements—has fascinated and influenced generations of writers.1.Which English book has got the most translations before the 20th century? A.Robinson Crusoe. B.Gulliv er’s Travels.C.Tom Jones. D.Emma.2.What does Samuel Johnson think we can learn about from the book Clarissa?A.A love story. B.Quarrels in a family.C.The human heart.

At that time, most advice on nutrition came from North American and European countries. Nutritionists suggested foods that were common and worked well for people who lived in these nations.For example, they told poor Indian women to eat more meal and eggs and drink more orange juice. But Lakshmi knew this advice was useless in a country like India. People there didn’t eat such foods. They weren’t easy to find. And for the poor, such foods were too expensive.Lakshmi knew that for the program to work, it had to fit Indian culture. So she decided to adjust the nutrition program. She first found out what healthy middle-class people in India ate. She took note of the nutrients (营养物)available in those foods. Then she looked for cheap, easy-to-find foods that would provide the same nutrients.She created a balanced diet of locally grown fruits, vegetables, and grains. These foods were cheap and could be cooked with simple equipment. Her ideas were thought unusual in the 1960s. For example, she insisted that a diet without meal could provide all major nutrients. Now we know she was right. But it took her continuous efforts to get others to finally accept her diet about 50 years ago. Because of Lakshmi’s program, Indian children almost doubled their food intake.And many children who would have been hungry and ill grew healthy and strong. 4.Why did Lakshmi think European nutritionists’ advice was useless?A.It worked well for European people.B.It suggested too many foods for Indians.C.It was not practical in India at that time.D.It included foods that didn’t exist in India.5.Lakshmi studied healthy middle-class people’s diet in order to . A.know about their eating habits B.learn about Indian culture C.find out nutrients in their food D.write a report on food nutrients 6.Lakshmi’s balanced diet was considered unusual because peoplethought .A.those foods were too cheap B.it should include some meatC.it provided all major nutrients D.it enabled kids to grow healthy 7.What can we infer about Lakshmi?A.She came from a rich family.B.She disliked middle-class people.C.She worked with European nutritionists.D.She was a determined scientist.The times are changing. On Thursday October 13th, singer-songwriter Bob Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, marking the first time the highly-eyed-on literary award has gone to someone who is mainly seen as a musician, and giving rise to heated discussions.The 75-year-old won the prize “for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition”, the Swedish Academy said.“For 54 years he has been at it, reinventing himself,” said Sara Danius, the academ y’s permanent secretary. “Bob Dylan writes poetry for the car. But it’s perfectly fine to read his works as poetry.”And while many Dylan’s fans have found great delight at the news, others online and in the literary community are cross with the Committee, saying the award has skipped over fiction writers for the second year.New York Times Book Review editor Pamela Paul said it was good news butpointed out how many “deserving” novelists there are.Director Martin Scorsese put out a statement saying he was “overjoyed” that Dylan was awarded the prize.“Dylan’s poetry, his musical genius, has meant so much to me personally and to generations of people around the world,” Scorsese said. “His work has influenced and shaped culture, and he has never stopped exploring and growing as an artist. The Nobel Committee has given Dylan a form of recognition that fits his role in our culture—in world culture.”Dylan won a Pulitzer Prize in 2008 for his “great influence on popular music and American culture”. He’s the firs t American to win the literary Nobel since Toni Morrison in 1993.8.Why does Bob Dylan’s winning the Nobel Prize cause healed discussions? A.He created poetic expressions.B.He is known as a musician. C.He reinvents himself.D.He is 75 years old.9.Which is closest in meaning to the underlined part in Paragraph 4? A.are thankful to B.are satisfied withC.are angry with D.are worried about10.What can we know about Dylan according to Martin Scorsese?A.Dylan influences Martin a lot.B.Dylan is happy with the award.C.Dylan is a poet rather than a musician.D.Dylan benefits a lot from world culture.11.What is the passage mainly about?A.A brief introduction to Bob Dylan.B.The reason for Bob Dylan’s success.C.Bob Dylan’s influence on American culture.D.Different views on Bob Dylan’s winning the Nobel Prize.Exposed soil isn’t part of nature’s master plan. Good examples where soil is naturally found with no plants growing in are beneath freshly removed trees, or where the ground has been burnt by a land fire. In these situations bare soil isn’t bare for long; within days seedlings (芽) begin to appear andcover the ground. In a few months’ time, the scar is hardly noticeable.Unlike these natural examples, ploughed (耕犁) fields and freshly dug gardens are obvious examples created by man. But, left to nature, even these bare soils soon turn green with a large number of tiny seedlings. In fields, gardens and on grasslands, roadside and sports fields, along streets and on paths and pavements, we are constantly battling to stop weeds from growing. All we are doing is stop the recovering powers of nature.Whenever soil is exposed, weeds act like a kind of medicine to reduce the potentially harmful rays of the sun, so the sooner plant growth covers the soil over again, the better.Weeds also help to improve the fertility (肥沃) of the soil. Their roots get the soil together, improving its structure and creating a more stable environment in which soil life can grow fast. Those weeds with a deep root draw up plant nutrients from deeper in the ground, making them available to plants growing near the soil surface. Above ground, the stems (茎) of weeds help trap fallen leaves which break down into the soil, adding to the fertility of the soil.As the soil becomes more fertile, different kinds of plants start to replace the “pioneering” weeds. Bushes move in to take the place by gradually shading them out, followed in turn by trees, which eventually push up through the bushes, finally shading them out too. Fallen leaves from the bushes and trees carry on the job of building soil fertility that was begun by those very first weeds that grew on the bare soil. Then, when one of these mature trees is removed in a storm, leaving a wound of bare soil in the earth, the whole process starts again. 12.When will soil be left bare?A.A land fire has just happened.B.A young tree is planted in. C.No one ploughs the land.D.No crops are planted in. 13.Which of the following prevents the bare soil from recovering? A.Seedlings appearing in gardens.B.Reducing harmful rays of the sun.C.Removing weeds from pavements.D.Replacing plants in sports fields.14.What can weeds do for the soil?A.They create soil life.B.They help improve the soil.C.They get nutrients from the sun.D.They break down fallen leaves.15.How can the soil remain fertile after trees move in?A.By adding more weeds to the soil.B.By taking out the weeds constantly.C.By removing the previous bushes.D.By making use of the fallen leaves.二、七选五Fights at school have become an increasingly familiar sight for children. You should know what to do if you are in a fight, or see a fight at school. 16.You should try to get away if you can. If you know someone is coming up behind you to attack, turn toward the person with your hands up in front of your body and loudly say “stop” before walking away. 17.If the person doesn’t stop, cry for help by calling out the name of a teacher whose classroom is nearby.18.In some school districts, everyone involved in a fight can be punished, regardless of who started it.What should you do if you sec a fight? You mustn’t jump in to break up a fight or help a friend. If you get involved in a fight, you become exposed to injuries and punishment. 19.It’s a good choice to find an adult or call the police. Shout loudly to break up the fight or warn that an adult is coming.20.It only provides temporary relief for the attacker and causes more trouble. If you are concerned about fights at school, the best thing you can do is talk to an adult who will listen and take action.A.Violence never solves problems.B.You should support one aide for good reason.C.There’re a few wa ys for you to defend yourself.D.You can do something if a fight breaks out at school.E.Loud voice can usually make the attacker calm down.F.The attacker usually stops when you’re running fast.G.Fighting, even in self-defense, should always be the last choice.三、完形填空A Letter to My DadFour years ago we found out about the cancer growing inside you. You told me the news that it had already spread and that you didn’t know how long you had 21 .I was still at university. A parent dying was something that happened to22 people-people older than me. I spent the first few months in 23 . For the first time I felt 24 . I wished I could just 25 you and take the cancer out. But there was nothing I could do.We’ve been 26 . You reacted well to treatment and you’re still here, though we don’t know for how much 27 .I’ve always wanted to say that I love you, and that I’m 28 for everything you’ve given me. But I can’t. It feels like it is this unwritten 29 in our father-son relationship that 30 it. You’re a man conservative and guarded with your 31 . You keep them to yourself and 32 others to do the same.But I know you 33 . I’ve seen your proud looks when I’ve told you about my 34 at work and school over the years. I’ve seen your 35 when things haven’t gone well. I remember all the offers of help.I wish we could talk about what we 36 to each other.

AJumanji (勇敢者的游戏) is a story for children about a very strange game—a game that becomes far too real and frightening for the players. It was a story by Chris Van Allsburg, which was later filmed in 1996, starring the famous American actor Robin Williams.The story begins in 1869 in New Hampshire, America. Two young brothers bury a box under some trees. A hundred years later, in 1969, a boy, Alan Panish, finds the box and takes it home. He is unhappy that his father may want to send him to a boa rding school. Alan’s friend, Sarah, arrives, and they open the box. Inside is a board game. At the start of the game, some words appear: “Do you want to leave the world behind and go back to the past? Then this is the game for you.’’ Suddenly Alan finds th at he is disappearing into the game.The story has a deep meaning. Through his adventures Alan learns something important—if you face your fears, your problems will go away. Alan turns to face Van Pelt, the hunter who is trying to kill him. In doing so, he completes the game and returns to reality. Then he finds that his father is not going to send him to a boarding school after all.In Jumanji, time is flexible. The film director Stephen Spielberg’s “Back to the Future” films play with time in the same way. Top scientists even tell us now that time travel is theoretically possible!21. From the story we learn that Alan is a boy who .A. dislikes his study at schoolB. is afraid of his serious fatherC. was born a hundred years agoD. goes back to the past in the game22. Through the game Alan has realized that whenever he has difficulties he should .A. escape into the pastB. face them bravelyC. ask for his father’s adviceD. read the words on the box23. What does the author mean when he says time is flexible?A. One can travel in time.B. Science can change the limit of time.C. Time travel is impossible in space.D. Time is a common topic in film-making.BIt’s that time of year when people need to lock their cars. It’s not because there are a lot of criminals running around stealing cars. Rather, it’s because of good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest. Especially with this year’s large crop, leaving a car unlocked in my neighborhood is an invitation for someone to fill it with zucchini (西葫芦).My sister, Sharon, recently had a good year for tomatoes. She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they had begun to feel their skin turn slightly red. That’s when she decided it was time to share her blessings. She started calling everyone she knew. When that failed, she began asking everyone in the neighborhood, eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes. “Feel free to take whatever you want,” Sharon told her. Later that day, Sharon found that her garden had indeed been harvested. She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didn’t go to waste.A few days later, Sharon answered the door. There was the neighbor, holding a hot loaf of bread. The neighbor smiled pl easantly, “I wanted to thank you for all of the tomatoes, and I have to admit that I took a few other things and hoped you wouldn’t mind.”Sharon couldn’t think of anything else in her garden that had been worth harvesting and said so. “Oh, but you did,” the neighbor said. “You had some of the prettiest zucchini I’ve ever seen.”Sharon was confused. They hadn’t even planted any zucchini. But her neighbor insisted that there really were bright-green zucchini in her garden. Sharon felt curious and decided to go to seewhere the zucchini had grown. The two of them walked together into the backyard. When the neighbor pointed at the long green vegetables, Sharon smiled. w Well, actually, those are cucumbers (黄瓜) that we never harvested, because they got too big, soft and bitter for eating.”The neighbor looked at Sharon, shock written all over her face. She gulped (哽住) a few times, and then, smiling, held out the bread, part of a batch she had shared all over the neighborhood. “I brought you a nice loaf of cucumber bread. I hope you like it.’’24. Why does the author warn people in the neighborhood to lock their cars?A. They might be stolen by thieves at night.B. They might be moved away by the police.C. Their neighbors might fill them with their harvest.D. Their neighbors might throw cucumbers into them.25. How did Sharon’s friends react to the invitation to take her tomatoes?A. They did not accept her kind offer.B. They were all delighted to have the tomatoes.C. They said they would go when they were free.D. They began to tell everyone they knew about it.26. What did the neighbor do in Sharon’s garden?A. She only harvested some tomatoes.B. She took some cucumbers mistakenly.C. She took something with Sharon’s help.D. She harvested a few zucchini by accident.27. We can infer that the neighbor’s bread would taste .A. soft and sweetB. hard and sourC. funny and bitterD. fragrant and deliciousCLand Art, sometimes referred to as Earth Art or Earthworks, is a form of art which involvesusing physical landscapes to create art, taking art out of the museum and into the outside world. Modem Land Art movement really got going in the 1960s, when American artists began creating Land Art on a large scale. Today, works of modem Land Art can be seen all over the world, sometimes right alongside much older pieces of Land Art created by people who lived thousands of years ago.Land Art, which is not necessarily unchangeable, can take a number of forms. For example, in 1970 Robert Smithson created the Spiral Jetty (螺旋状防波堤), made of a collection of stones and mud, in the Great Salt Lake. The American artist made a large jetty in a spiral shape which sticks out into the waters of the lake.Reshaping the landscape is a common characteristic of Land Art, which can be created by moving parts around. People can also add things to the environment to create Land Art, like salt, which is added to the Spiral Jetty. It is possible to use plants. In all cases, Land Art is immovable.Land Art is designed to gradually form, change, and eventually decay (衰落). That’s one of the biggest differences between Land Art and most of the art one sees in the museums. Some works of art can exist only for a few hours or days. Others are exposed to rain and wind so that they develop and decay over time, which is part of the attractiveness in the eyes of the artists.28. What can be learned from the first paragraph?A. Land Art was the most popular art in the 1960s.B. Land Art aims to get people interested in nature.C. American artists were the first to create Land Art.D. People have been creating Land Art for thousands of years.29. What do we know about Robert Smithson?A. He is a great creative artist.B. He lives near the Great Salt Lake.C. He made the most famous Land Art.D. He was a pioneer in creating Land Art.30. One of the unique characteristics of Land Art lies in .A. it shows the extreme beauty of natureB. it develops and decays gradually over timeC. it combines the landscapes around completelyD. it offers the artists a chance to get close to nature31. What is the passage mainly about?A. Works of Land Art.B. History of Land Art.C. Changes of Land Art.D. Introduction of Land Art.DPeople have been wondering why elephants do not develop cancer even though they have lifespans (寿命) that are similar to humans, jiving for around 50 to 70 years.Now scientists believe they know why. A team at the University of Chicago, US has found that elephants carry a large number of genes that stop tumors (肿瘤) developing. To be precise, they found 20 copies of an anti-tumor gene called TP53 in elephants. Most other species, including humans, only carry one copy.According to the research, the extra copies of the gene improved the animal’s sensitivity to DNA damage, which lets the cells quickly kill themselves when damaged before they can go on to form deadly tumors.“An increased risk of developing cancer has stood in the way of the evolution of large body sizes in many animals,” t he study author Dr Vincent Lynch told The Guardian. If every living cell has the same chance of becoming cancerous (癌变的), large creatures with a long lifespan like whales and elephants should have a greater risk of developing cancer than humans and mice. But across species, the risk of cancer does not show a connection with body mass.This phenomenon was found by Oxford University scientist Richard Peto in the 1970s and later named “Peto’s paradox (悖论)”. Biologists believe it results from larger animals usi ng protection that many smaller animals do not. In the elephant’s case, the making of TP53 is nature’s way of keeping this species alive.The study also found that when the same genes were brought to life in mice, they had the same cancer resistance as elephants. This means researchers could use the discovery to develop new treatments that can help stop cancers spreading or even developing in the first place.“Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer,” said Joshua Schiffman, a biologist at the S chool of Medicine, University of Utah, US. “It’s up to us to learn how different animals deal with the problem so that we can use those strategies to prevent cancer in people.”32. Why are elephants unlikely to develop cancer?A. They have a rather large body size.B. Their genes suffer no DNA damage.C. Certain genes in their body kill existing tumors.D. They carry many genes to prevent tumors developing.33. According to the passage, what has been a risk in the evolution of large animals?A. Deadly tumors.B. The huge body mass.C. Cells killing themselves.D. Sensitivity to DNA damage.34. What does the underlined part “This phenomenon” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to?A. Larger animals have protection from TP53.B. The risk of cancer is not related to body size.C. Larger animals suffer the same risk of cancer as smaller ones.D. The larger animals are, the bigger risk of cancer they will have.35. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Depending on nature is surely enough to fight against cancer.B. The TP53 genes have proved useful in stopping cancer in people.C. Humans are expected to prevent cancer with the making of TP53.D. The extra copies of elephants, genes are used to cure cancer patients.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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

"The response speed after watching 3D was almost three times as quick as that gained from watching 2D; in other words,3D helps children process aspects of their environment more quickly.This is likely because 3D is a mentally exciting experience which 'gets the brain's juices flowing'."(1)How do we know the benefits of watching a 3D film?A.Through introduction.B.By taking an exam.C.Through research.D.By watching TV shows.(2)What's the meaning of the underlined word "stimulation" ?A.Excitement.B.Contents.C.Cost.D.Time.(3)Why does 3D have an advantage over 2D?A.The time of watching 3D is short.B.3D can increase the reaction speed.C.3D can make children adapt the surroundings more quickly.D.3D can make more brain's power(4)What may be the best title for the text?A.How 3D formsB.What are 3D filmsC.A study on 3D filmsD.3D films benefit children3.阅读理解"How to Let Co of the World and Love All the Things Climate Can't Change" is the latest movie from film-maker and climate activist Josh Fox.The movie is the third film in a three-part series about climate change.In 2010,Fox's documentary "Gasland" was appointed for the highest award-an Oscar. "Gasland" explored the hotly debated process of removing natural gas from the ground.He examined the subject again in "Gasland Ⅱ". Fox was in Washington,D.C.recently to present his third film.He was arrested during a protest against a new fuel pipeline.In the film,Fox says pollution from fossil fuels must be reduced.Without limits,there will be more extreme weather,like severe storms and dry weather,rising sea levels,causing shortages of food and water, "When you really encounter that head on,it causes an in-credible crisis."In the new film,Fox travels through a sunless forest in the Amazon with local activists to measure oil spills.He goes to a village in Ecuador to learn how people there stopped a pipeline from being built.He joins young people in Australia to stop boats from entering the port of Newcastle."You should probably know the downside of what we're about to do.This is the short list: drowning,being arrested: being run over by boats,drifting away in currents out into the Pacific Ocean,cultural disrespect,big waves."Also in the film,Fox talks to Ella Zhou,an energy expert.She explained the importance of what she calls "moral imagination"."I think that it forces us to get out of our box of thinking about,for instance,what is being successful.It allows us to have a moral value about what you want as a person.What do you want to do for the world and for yourself?"(1)Why was Fox's "Gasland" appointed for an Oscar?A.Because Fox is the most famous film-maker in America.B.Because Fox had experienced incredible crisis in the globe.C.Because the movie is mainly about global climate change.D.Because Fox was arrested for opposing a new fuel pipeline.(2)What does the underlined word "that" refer to?A.The pollution from fossil fuels.B.The economic crisis.C.The increasing population.D.The extreme weather.(3)What's the purpose of "moral imagination" mentioned in the last paragraph?A.To warn people of the importance of creating new fuels.B.To make people learn to be creative in thinking things.C.To motivate people to achieve their dreams in their life.D.To stimulate people to find the values of individuals.4.阅读理解In the traffic lights,red means "stop",green means "go",and yellow means "hurry": Why those colors, though? Why not blue,purple,and brown?The following are transponded from others WeChat.●Red is an inherited symbol from railroadsRed symbolizes danger in many cultures,which makes sense,considering it has the longest wavelength of any color,meaning you can see it from a greater distance than other colors.Red has meant "stop" since long before cars existed,with railway signals use of red dating bake to the days when mechanical arms lifted and lowered to indicate whether the rail ahead was clear.So that one's simple.●Green meant "caution" at firstGreen's role in lights has actually changed dramatically over time.Its wavelength is next to (and shorter than) yellow's,meaning it's still easier to see than any color other than red and yellow.Back in the early days of railway lights,green originally meant "caution",while the "all-clear" light was,well,clear or white.Trains,of,course,take an unlimitedly long time to stop,and legend has it that several disastrous collisions happened after an engineer mistook stars in the night horizon for an all-clear.Thus,green became "go",and for a long time,railways used only green and red to signal trains.●Yellow means "caution" because it's almost as easy to see as redFrom the earliest days of motoring up until the mid-1900s,not all stop signs were red-many were yellow, because at night it was all but impossible to see a red stop sign in a poorly lit area.The yellow stop-sign craze began in Detroit in 1915,a city that five years later installed its first electric traffic signal,which happened to include the very first amber traffic light,at the corner of Michigan and Woodward Aves.(1)What are the earliest traffic signals designed for from the passage?A.Cars.B.Trains.C.Motorcars.D.Not mentioned.(2)Which statement is true according to the passage?A.Green means "go" all the time.B.Red is the easiest color to be noticed.C.All yellow things need dealing with carefully.D.All the three colors were once used as "caution".(3)What's the main idea of the passage?A.What is your favorite color?B.Why are "Red,Yellow,Green" used as traffic signals?C.How can we figure out the wavelength of colors?D.What color can green,yellow and red make?(4)Where is the passage from?A.A diary.B.A scientific magazine.C.A newspaper.D.The Internet.二.完形填空5.完形填空"There once was a beggar who loved to hear himself sing.He lived 1 a dustbin next to a supermarket.He had the most amazing voice.No one would listen to him, 2 .Cats and dogs would come to sing along.All animals would come to hear this sound.No 3 though.His4 audience were the animals.Even without people to sing to.the man was filled with 5for he loved his voice.Then one day,a little girl was on her way to the supermarket.The man was singing one of his favorite songs.The little girl 6 him and wondered what that noise was.She began 7 around every corner until she found him.

I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistaes, and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying “T ae the etra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “e tra minute” rule. When my children were young and liely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor lie moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, orsomething that required a little more wor such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp cornersof a glass coffee table.I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. W e all now people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” Whenmy father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, Itold him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought about the fact that he was 84 years old and I realied that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to wor on my day off after all.I now there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only”about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it taes an etra minute to do something right, or it occasionally taes an hour or two in my busy schedule to mae a personal connection, I now that I’m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best ind of insurance for my emotional well-being.5. Which of the following is an eample of the “etra minute” rule?A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated.B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron woring.C. Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.D. Wait for an etra minute so that the stea tastes better.6. The underlined word “foregone”in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .A. abandonedB. avoidedC. lacedD. taen7.

Saar was woring late in her office at the First Internet ban of California. By 1045 that night she was almost ready to go home when the phone rang. Picing it up, she heard a guard shouting, “There is a fire! Get out of there.” Saar didn't panic. She figured that it was just a small fire. Her office building was huge. There were 62 floors and her des was on the 37th floor. Saar called out to office mate Stephen Osas, who also stayed late to wor. But when they got out to the hallway, they were met by a cloud of blac smoe. Rushing bac, Saar shut the door and filled the space at the bottom of the door with her jacet to eep the smoe out.Then they called 911. Before they could call their families, however, the line went dead. That meant that they were completely cut off from the outside world. All they could do was wait and hope someone would come to rescue them.Minutes ticed by. Smoe began to float into the office. Soon it became hard for them tobreathe. Looing around, Saar noticed a small worroom. It seemed to have cleaner air. So they crowded there. That helped for a while, but in time even the worroom was filled with deadly smoe.

The Rutgers University study found that this mind and body combination, done twice a wee for only two months, reduced the symptoms for a group of students by 40 percent “We are ecitedby the findings because we saw such a meaningful improvement in both clinically depressed and non—depressed students,”said lead author Dr.Brandon Alderman. “Itis the first time that both of these two behavioral ways have been looed at together for dealing with depression.”Researchers believe the two activities have an interactive effect in combating depression. Alderman and Dr. Tracey Shors discovered that a combination of mental and physical training (MAP)enabled students with major depressive disorder not to let problems or negative thoughtsdefeat them.Rutgers researchers say those who participated in the study began with 30 minutes of focused attention meditation followed by 30 minutes of oygen sport. They were told that if their thoughts drifted to the past or the future they should refocus on their breathing, enabling those with depression to accept moment-to-moment changes in attention.Shors, who studies the production of new brain cells in the hippocampus—part of the brain involved in memory and learning—says scientists have shown in animal models thatoygen sport eercise eeps a large number of certain cells alive.The idea for the human intervention( 干预)came from her laboratory studies, she says,with the main goal of helping individuals acquire new sills so that they can learn to recover from stressful life events.By learning to focus their attention and eercise,people who are fighting depression canacquire new learning sills that can help them process information and reduce the overwhelming recollection of memories from the past,Shors says.“We now these treatments can be practiced over a lifetime and that they will be effective in improving mental healt h.”said Alderman. “The good news is that this intervention can bepracticed by anyone at any time and at no cost.”12. What made the research so different?A. Adopting a way of meaningful talB. Combining the two ways to treat depressionC. Comparing the depressed with the non-depressedD. Treating depression with special medicine13. The underlined word “co mbating” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by A. identifying B. distinguishingC. fightingD. eamining14. What did the participants do in the research?A. They too eercise while thining quietly.B. They did oygen sport half an hour before thining.C. They too eercise longer than they thought.D. They thought quietly and then too eercise.15. What is Shors’main purpose of her studies?A. To offer people a new method to treat stress.B. To study the production of new brain cells.C. To find outcertain brain cells of humans.D. To decide the lins between stress and eercise.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分)You’re growing up.

But understand that sometimes I want to tell you something and I want to get it just right. Putting it down on paper helps me do that. I wish I had been a better writer, I wish I had gone to college. If I had, I think I would have studied English and maybe my vocabulary would have improved. So many times I feel I am using the same words over and over. Like a woman wearing the same dress every day. So boring!What I want to say to you, Charley, is you are marrying a wonderful girl.I think of Catherine in many ways like I think of Roberta. Like a daughter. She is sweet and patient. You should be the same with her, Charley.Here is what you are going to find out about marriage: you have to work at it together* And have to love three things. You have to love1) Each other.2) Your children (when you have some).3) Your marriage.What I mean by that last one is, there may be times that you fight, and sometimes you Catherine won’t even like each other. But those are the times you have to love your marriage like a third party. Look at your wedding photos. Look at any memories you’ve made. And if believe in thos e memories, they willpull you back together.I’m very proud of you today, Charley. I am putting this in your tuxedo pocket because I know how you lose things.I love you every day!Mom5.Why did the mother write the letter to Charley?A.To congratulate her son.B.To give him some advice.C.To show her pity.D.To talk things through.6.What kind of feeling is mainly revealed in the letter?A.Regret.B.Pride.C.Care.D.Complaint.7.What is implied about Charley in the letter?A.He is forgetful.B.He is patient.C.He is boring.D.He is worried.My daughter went to see The Wild One recently and she commented that Marlon Brando was wearing jeans so long ago. Of course he helped set the trend, so that got me thinking about the link between films and trends in fashion. Fashion and films have gone hand in hand for long. The Wild One is a good example: it appeared in 1954, starring Brando. Dressed in a black leather motorcycle jacket, leather cap and jeans, he created a look which is still considered “cool” tod ay. Everyone from Madonna to middle-aged men is seen wearing the classic leather motorcycle jacket.Another strong influence on fashion trends was Breakfast at Tiffany’s, starring Audrey Hepburn. She made famous the simple black dress that looks perfect at either a cocktail party or just standing around an expensive department store like Tiffany’s with a pastry and coffee in your hand, as Audrey Hepburn does in the film. She looks so elegant, wearing simple but beautiful dresses, big dark glasses and a string of pearls around her neck. Audrey Hepburn still influences women’s fashion with her “Tiffany’s look”.In more modem times, the film star Uma Thurman created a major fashion trend when she appeared in the film Pulp Fiction, made in 1994. Her style was very simple. Her black trousers, crisp white shirt and hair style was copied by women in the world.Influencing fashion trends can often be about timing. The movie Memoirs of a Geisha camejust in time to start a trend in Japanese fashion. It starred the Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi, who wore beautiful silk kimonos (和服), and it won an Oscar for Costume Design. Many travel companies picked up on the trend and ran “geisha trips” to Japan. The film has also led to a regained interest in kimonos. It is now quite common to see young Japanese women wearing kimonos not just on traditional occasions, but at various social events. The fashion is also beginning to spread to Western countries.8.What is the best title of the passage?A.Films and fashion. B.Stars’ fashion.C.Influential films. D.Film cultures.9.Who will people associate Madonna wearing the leather motorcycle jacket with? A.Zhang Ziyi. B.Audrey Hepburn.C.Uma Thurman. D.Marlon Brando.10.What is implied in the film Breakfast at Tiffany’s according to the passage?A.One can be active by wearing black.B.One can be elegant by dressing simply.C.One can be famous by looking perfect.D.One can be stylish by eating at Tiffany’s.11.What does the film Memoirs of a Geisha lead to?A.The popularity of the Chinese actress.B.The worldwide reading of Geisha stories.C.The recovery of interest in kimonos.D.The “geisha trips” to social events.I was born on the 17th of November 1828, in the village of Nam Ping, which is about four miles southwest of Macao, and is located on Pedro Island lying west of Macao, from which it is separated by a channel of half a mile wide.As early as 1834, an English lady, Mrs. Gutzlaff, wife of a missionary to China, came to Macao. Supported by the Ladies’ Association in London for th e promotion of female education in India and the East, she immediately took up the work of starting a girls’ school for Chinese girls, which was soon followed by the opening of a boys’ school.Mrs. Gutzlaff’s comprador (买办)happened to come from my village and wasactually my father’s friend and neighbor. It was through him that my parents heard about Mrs. Gutzlaff’s school and it was doubtlessly through his influence and means that my father got me admitted into the school, It has always been a mystery to me why my parents should put me into a foreign school, instead of a traditional Confucian school, where my big brother was placed. Most certainly such a step would have been more suitable for Chinese public opinion, taste, and the wants of the country, than to allow me to attend an English school. Moreover, a Chinese belief is the only avenue in China that leads to political promotion, influence, power and wealth. I can only guess that as foreign communication with China was just beginning to grow, my parents hoped that it might be worthwhile to put one of their sons to learning English. In this way he might become an interpreter and have a more advantageous position to enter the business and diplomatic world. I am wondering if that influenced my parents to p ut me into Mrs. Gutzlaff’s school. As to what other sequences it has eventually brought about in my later life, they were entirely left in the hands of God.12.How was the author admitted to Mrs. Gutzlaff’s school?A.Through his father’s request.B.Through his father’s friend’s help.C.Through his own efforts at exams.D.Through Mrs. Gutzlaff’s influence.13.Why did the author’s parents put him into an English school?A.It met with Chinese public opinion.B.An English school was more influential.C.He could become a successful interpreter.D.Foreign trade with China was developing fast.14.What did the author think of his parents’ decision to put him into an English school?A.It was skeptical.B.It was wonderful.C.It was thoughtful.D.It was mysterious.15.What does the underlined word “sequences” in the last sentence probably mean?A.Results.B.Orders.C.Series.D.Progress.二、七选五Chopsticks1.When chopsticks were invented?In fact, before the invention of chopsticks, Chinese ancestors actually used hands to eat, but how did they eat soup(汤菜)and porridge? 16.Chinese started to use chopsticks about 3,000 years ago in Shang Dynasty.2.Who invented chopsticks?The records of using chopsticks have been found in many written books but lack physical evidence. However many stories are about the invention of chopsticks. One says that Jiang Ziya, an ancient wise man, created chopsticks. 17.But there is no exact history record about the invention. We can only say that smart ancient Chinese invented chopsticks.3. How to use Chinese chopsticks.Using two slim sticks to pick up food is actually not difficult. You can do it if you practice it for some time, even if you are a foreigner. The key to managing chopsticks is keeping one chopstick in position while moving the other to pick up food. 18.4.Chopsticks MannersChopsticks are usually held in the right hand, and left-handed chopstick use is considered as improper in China. Playing with chopsticks is thought to be impolite. 19.5.The philosophy of Chinese chopsticksChinese philosopher Confucius advised people to use chopsticks instead of knives because the metal knives remind people of cold weapons, which mean killing and violence.6.A chopsticks-themed museum can be found in ShanghaiIf you are truly interested in chopsticks, you can pay a visit to the Shanghai Chopsticks Museum. The museum gathered more than 1,200 pairs of chopsticks from China, Korea, Japan and Thailand. 20.A.Chopsticks were introduced to many other neighbor countries due to its lightness and convenience.B.It is considered to be polite and thoughtful to pick up food for the elderly and children. C.Bamboo chopsticks are most frequently used in Chinese daily life.D.The oldest one was from the Tang Dynasty.E.There also go around some other stories.F.Remember to practice with patience.G.They had to use sticks to eat them.三、完形填空Two years ago, Dubuque, Iowa, started its first annual “Back to School Bash” programme.
