Something must be done to stop this. Now in New York City, USA, a rule is carried out in schools. Students can't even bring cell phones to school. Is it a good thing or not?Anxious parents say that cell phones are an important tool in holding New York City's families together."I worry about it." said Elizabeth Lorris Ritter, a mother of a middle school kid. "It's necessary in our everyday life. We have a washing machine. We have running water, and we have cell phones."Many American parents think cell phones connect them to their children on buses, getting out from subways, walking through unknown places."I have her call me when she gets out of school," said Lindsay Walt, a schoolgirl's mother. "No one in New York is going to let their child go to school without a cell phone."What about the cell phone owners, the students? Most of the students said cell phones were试卷第2页，共12页essential and the cell phone was like an extra hand or foot for them."I feel so empty," said May Chom, 14. There is also no way to listen to music on the way to school without my phone. It will be a really, really boring trip." 1、Which of the following statements is TRUE?A ．Many American parents don't think cell phones are necessary for the students.B ．Cell phones only bring troubles to the school life.C ．Cell phones connect children with their families when they are outside.D ．People cannot live without cell phones.2、What does the underlined word "essential" mean in Chinese? A ．时髦的 B ．必要的 C ．昂贵的 D ．受欢迎的3、This article is about the ______ in carrying out the rule not to use a cell phone in school. A ．happiness B ．interest C ．problem D ．advantageThrow out the bottles and boxes of drugs in your house. A new theory suggests that medicine could be bad for your health. This new theory argues that healing (the process of becoming healthy and strong again) is at our fingertips: we can be healthy by doing Reiki on a regular basis.Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it is effective and scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual methods such as Reiki, Yoga, Tai Chi. These waste our time, something that is quite precious in our material world. There is medicine that can kill our pain and x-rays that show us our broken bones. We must admit that试卷第3页，共12页these methods are very effective in the examples that they provide. However, there are some "everyday complaints" such as back pains, headaches, which are treated currently with medicine. When you have a headache, you take an Aspirin; when you cannot sleep, you take Xanax without thinking of the side effects of these. When you use these pills for a long period, you become dependent on them; you cannot sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of money but never get better. How about a safer and more economical way of healing? When doing Reiki to yourself, you do not need anything except your energy so it is very economical. Also, there are no side effects and it is scientifically explained.They also claim that serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS and cancer cannot be treated without drugs. They think so because these patients spend the rest of their lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Reiki make these people healthy again? It is very unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their hair and weight because of the side effects of the medicine they take. Actually, instead of drugs which are expensive and have many side effects, you can use your energy to overcome the hardships of life, find an emotional balance, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries.Some people may still hold that in our material world, everything depends on time. How would it be possible to find time to do Reiki? In fact, Reiki does not require more than 15 minutes of our time. It is less time consuming than medicine if we think of all the time we spend taking medicine for some complaints and taking some more for the side effects as well. 4、The author's attitude towards Reiki is ______.A ．disinterestedB ．seriousC ．positiveD ．doubtful 5、According to the passage, which of the statements is correct? A ．Reiki will soon become the most popular exercise around the world. B ．Reiki is an effective treatment but not scientifically explained. C ．Reiki can make people less dependent on drugs. D ．Reiki is a kind of cheap drug but works well.6、Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A ．A New Way of Treating Illness B ．Health and Healing at Your Fingers C ．The Advantages and Disadvantages of Reiki D ．The Advantages and Disadvantages of Medicine试卷第4页，共12页Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce(弹跳) back.But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?Don't look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.Don't let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.Don't be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; the best way to keep love is to give it wings.Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going.Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure you can always carry easily.Don't use time or words carelessly. You can't get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery(秘密), and today is a gift; that's why we call it "the present". Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.7、The sentence "Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying." means "_______." A ．Nothing is possibleB ．If we don't give up, there is always hopeC ．You should learn to give upD ．Although you try, nothing will change8、If you run through life so fast, you will _______. A ．lose your own treasure that you can always carry easily B ．lose love by holding it too tightlyC ．forget not only where you've been, but also where you are goingD ．not be afraid of the difficulties试卷第5页，共12页9、According to the passage, which is the best title?A ．Nothing Is ImpossibleB ．Glass Balls Are Easy to Be BrokenC ．Things You Can't DoD ．Treat Your Life in a Right WaySingapore's public transport system is one of the best in the world, so you should have no problem finding your way around like a local. There are three main forms of public transport that you would find in any other major city －trains, buses and taxis. TRAINSTrains run from 6:00 am to midnight. Single trip tickets start at 80 cents.

D ．It's very convenient for visitors to travel in Singapore.It was 3:21 a.m. when nine-year-old Glenn Kreamer awoke to the smell of burning. Except for the cracking(爆烈声) of flames somewhere below there was not a sound in the two-storey house at Baldwin Long Island.With his father away on night duty at a local factory, Glenn was worried about the safety of his mother, his sister Karen, 14 and his 12-year-old brother Todd. He ran downstairs through the smoke-filled house to push and pull at Karen and Todd until they sat up. Then he helped each one through the house to the safety of the garden. There, his sister and brother, taking short and quick breaths and coughing, fell down onto the lawn.The nine-year-old boy raced back into the house and upstairs to his mother's room. He found it impossible to wake her up. Mrs. Kreamer, a victim of the smoke, was unconscious(昏厥的), and there was nobody to help Glenn carry her to the garden. But the boy remained calm and, as a fireman said later, "acted with all the self-control of a trained adult."On the bedroom telephone, luckily still working, Glenn called his father and, leaving Mr. Kreamer to telephone the fire brigade and ambulance service, got on with the task of saving his mother.First he filled a bucket with water from the bathroom and threw water over his mother and her bed. Then, with a wet cloth around his head he went back to the garden.He could hear the fire engine coming up, but how would the firemen find his mother in the smoke-filled house where flames had almost swallowed up the ground floor?Grasping firmly a ball of string(线) from the garage, Glenn raced back into the house and dashed upstairs to his mother's room. Tying one end of the string to her hand, he ran back, laying out the string as he went, through the hall and back out into the garden.Minutes later he was telling fire chief John Coughlan, "The string will lead you to mother." Mrs. Kreamer was carried to safety as the flames were breaking through her bedroom floor. 13、Why did Glenn run downstairs first? A ．He wanted to find out what was happening.试卷第7页，共12页B ．He was worried about his mother's safety.C ．He wanted to save his sister and brother.D ．He went to see if his father had come back from work. 14、Who called the fire brigade and ambulance service?A ．Glenn.B ．Glenn's father.C ．Glenn's sister.D ．Glenn's neighbor. 15、Glenn saved his family because _______. A ．his father had taught him to do so on the phone B ．he had learned something about first aidC ．he had dealt with the emergency(突发事件) calmly and wiselyD ．he had followed his mother's instructions二、完形填空（题型注释）I was 17 when I walked into Carley's bookstore in Ashland.

To explain why she took on a challenge in college．17.Rose was invited to speak at the football meal most probably because ______ ．A. she was a great football fanB. she was the smartest studentC. she tried hard to achieve her dreamD. she became more educated than the others18.We can learn that Rose agreed with the idea that ______ ．A. growing older means growing upB. it takes talent and ability to grow upC. receiving high education helps to be courageousD. one grows older at the same time when he grows up19.The passage is intended to ______ ．A. provide an example for the elderlyB. discuss how to grow up quicklyC. tell the importance of attending collegeD. inspire the readers to live up to livesBSea Life Melbourne Aquarium （水族馆）The all-new Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium，located in the heart of Melbourne's CBD，is one of Victoria's leading visitor attractions and an unforgettable outing for the whole family．Having 12 amazing zones of discovery，Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium is the very place that you cannot miss when you visit the city．*Opening TimesSea Life Melbourne Aquarium is open from 9：30 am until 6：00 pm every day of the year，including public holidays．Last admission is at 5：00 pm，one hour before closing．*Location．Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium is located on the corner of Flinders Street and King Street，Melbourne．It is located on the Yarra River，opposite Crown Entertainment Complex．*Getting to Sea Life Melbourne AquariumTrainThe Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium train stop is located on the free City Circle Tram route （公交线路）and also routes 70 and 75．City Circle trams run every 10 minutes in both directions．Shuttle BusThe Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium is a free bus service，stopping at key tourist attractions in and around the City．Running daily，every 15 minutes from 10：00 am to 4：00 pm．Car ParkingWhile there is no public car parking at Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium，there are several public car parking lots available only a short walk away．*Wheelchair AccessSea Life Melbourne Aquarium provides people in wheelchairs with full access to all 12 zones．Each floor also has wheelchair accessible toilets．*TermsTickets will be emailed to you immediately after buying or you can download and print your ticket once payment has been accepted．Please print out all tickets bought and present at the front entrance of Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium．No ticket，no entry!20.Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium ______ ．A. is located at the center of the CBD in the cityB. has 12 most attractive places in MelbourneC. admits visitors from 9：30 am until 6：00 pmD. is beside Crown Entertainment Complex21.Getting to Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium，visitors can take ______ ．A. trains from southern Cross train stationB. shuttle buses around the train stationC. boats across the Yarra RiverD. either tram route 70 or 7522.Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium offers visitors ______ ．A. free car parkingB. wheelchair accessC. Internet connectionD. transportation service23.Tickets to Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium ______ ．A. are free to all visitorsB. can be bought by emailC. are checked at the entranceD. can be printed at the ticket officeCThis is the age of the quick action．We have instant satisfaction，fast food，speed reading，mobile phones；even the stress management books have titles like "Stress Management in 60 Seconds"．Canadian Classics Professor Margaret Visser points out that we have "no time" is one of the most fixed concepts of Western culture．Visser says that "no time" is used as an excuse and also as a spur（激励）；it both inspires us and limits us，just as a concept such as "honor" did for the ancient Greeks．According to Visser，the feeling that Westerners have "no time" is abstract，quantitative，amoral，unarguable pressure on each person as an individual．At the same time the "no time" excuse escapes blames by claiming to be a condition created entirely out of our good fortune．Life offers "so many pleasures，so many choices"．The fact that women now work outside the home has contributed to the "no time" trend．But more important，Visser says，is the fact that feeling rushed has become an important part of our economy．Marketing of "time-saving" products causes people to buy more and work longer．So we eat out or buy prepared food to save time．The fax-it-to-my-car technology only contributes to the constant hurry．In our rushed and tired state，even the obligation to sit down to a casual meal with family seems like a pressure．In comparison with the decision to act on a sudden whim（一时的兴致）to consume a microwave mug of soup，the act of eating together and not getting up from the table until everyone else has finished seems an unbelievably time-consuming event．Being in one's own personal hurry in the West is somehow "free and preferable"．24.The underlined word "it" in the second paragraph refers to " ______ "．A. excuseB. conceptC. spurD. professor25.The following things have led to the "no time" trend in the West according to the passageEXCEPT that ______ ．A. feeling rushed has become an important part of our economyB. people now prefer to be in their own personal hurryC. women now work outside the homeD. people are rushed and tired26.Which of the following doesn't contribute to feeling rushed？______A. Eating together and not getting up until everybody has finished．B. Making of time-saving products．C. The fax-it-to-my-car technology．D. Longer working hours．27.We can learn from the passage that "no time" trend ______ ．A. has caused heart diseases and mental problemsB. is not harmful if you have no control of eventsC. is very desirable to the individualD. puts pressure on the individualDOne day when I was 12，my mother gave me an order：I was to walk to the public library and borrow at least one book for the summer．This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem inability to read．In the library，I found my way into the "Children's Room"．I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random．The cover of a book caught my eye．It presented a picture of a beagle．I had recently had a beagle，the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child．He was my secret sharer，but one morning，he was gone，given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him．I never forgot my beagle．There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked identical to my dog．I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover．My eyes ran across the title，Amos，the Beagle with a Plan．Unknowingly，I had read the title．Without opening the book，I borrowed it from the library for the summer．Under the shade of a bush，I started to read about Amos．I read very，very slowly with difficulty．Though pages were turned slowly，I got the main idea of the story about a dog who，like mine，had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home．That dog was my dog，and I was the little boy in the book．At the end of the story，my mind continued the final scene of reunion，on and on，until my own lost dog and I were，in my mind，running together．My mother's call returned me to the real world．I suddenly realized something：I had read a book，and I had loved reading that book．Everyone knew I could not read But I had read it．Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them．I never told my mother about my "miraculous"（奇迹般地）experience that summer，but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year．And years later，she was proud that her son had read thousands of books，was awarded a PhD in literature，and authored his own books，articles，poetry and fiction．The power of the words has held．28.The author's mother told him to borrow a book in order to ______ ．A. encourage him to do more walkingB. let him spend a meaningful summerC. help cure him of his reading problemD. make him learn more about weapons29.The book caught the author's eye because ______ ．A. it reminded him of his own dogB. he found its title easy to understandC. it contained pretty pictures of animalsD. he liked children's stories very much30.Why could the author manage to read the book through？______A. He was forced by his mother to read it．B. He identified with the story in the book．C. The book told the story of his pet dog．D. The happy ending of the story attracted him．31.Which one could be the best title of the passage？______A. My Passion for ReadingB. Mum's Strict OrderC. Reunion with My BeagleD. The Charm of a BookEDespite the anxiety that Jones' Host-said by some to be the first digital novel--caused in 1993，publishers weren't too concerned that e-books would one day replace printed books．However，that attitude was changed suddenly in 2007 when Amazon's Kindle came onto the market，which led to e-book sales jumping up to 1，260%．Since then，e-books' popularity has continued to steadily rise．The publishing industry seemed to have lost all possible ability to regain its position．Will-printed books eventually become a thing of the past？According to Mike Shatzkin，founder and CEO of the Idea Logical Company，printed books just for plain old reading will，in 10 years from now，be unusual．"Not so unusual that a kid will say，‘ Mommy，what's that？' but unusual enough that on the train you'll see one or two people reading something printed，while everyone else is reading off of a tablet．" And Shatzkin believes that the demise of print is sure to happen，though such a day won't arrive for perhaps 50 to 100 or more years．Robert Stein，founder of the Institute for the Future of the Book，however，believes that books won't disappear entirely，at least not anytime soon．"Print will exist，but it will be in a different field and will appeal to a very limited audience，as poetry does today．Like woodblock printing，hand-processed film and folk weaving （编织），printed pages may assume an artistic value，" he says．He imagines that future forms of books might be developed not by conventional publishers but by the gaming industry．He also predicts that the distinction between writer and reader will be made less obvious by a social reading experience in which authors and consumers can digitally interact with each other to discuss any passage，sentence or line．Is there anything we risk sacrificing，should print really disappear entirely？According to Maryanne Wolf，director of the Center for Reading and Language Research at Tufts University，electronic reading can negatively affect the way the brain responds to text，including reading comprehension，focus and the ability to maintain attention to details like plot and order of events．"My worry is that we'll have a short-circuited reading brain，excellent for gathering information but not necessarily for forming critical，analytical deep reading skills，" Wolf says．The field，however，is in an early stage，and findings about the negative effects of e-reading are far from certain．In light of this，Wolf hopes that we continue to maintain a "bi-literate" society--one that values both the digital and printed word．"A full reading brain circuit is a huge contribution to the intellectual development of our species．Anything that threatens that deserves our attention．"32.How did publishers feel about the rising e-book sales inspired by the Kindle？______A. WorriedB. ExcitedC. CuriousD. Skeptical．33.The underlined word "demise" in Paragraph 2 probably means ______ ．A. riseB. deathC. growthD. decline34.According to Robert Stein，paper books will exist because of ______ ．A. the artistic valueB. the digital interactionC. the growing popularityD. the conventional design35.It can be concluded from the last two paragraphs that Wolf holds that ______ ．A. e-reading will weaken the power of our brainB. digital books and paper books should not co-existC. e-reading will make us more critical and thoughtfulD. we should not risk losing a full reading brain circuit三、完形填空（本大题共20小题，共30.0分）Running for a Dream I will never forget that November day．It was hotter than normal．This was the (36) my father and I had waited so long for，because we had been working towards thisrace for three years．Dozens of familiar faces from church and school flashed across my view．They had come(37) me．I saw worry and (38) on my father's face．Then the race began!

They have been for both kinds of weather for more than 3,000 years. You might say that umbrellas are dripping with history.Early Egyptian rulers used them in ceremonies. Leaders of old Japan walked under red umbrellas. They were a sign of power. The kings of Burma（缅甸）rode on white elephants under white umbrellas. People in Greece and Rome also used umbrellas long ago. The umbrellas of early times were used in warm lands as protection against the sun.By the 1600s umbrellas had appeared in northern Europe. In these countries they were used on rainy days,too. The umbrellas were thought to be big and clumsy（笨重的）. They were used only by people who didn't have carriages.By the 1700s umbrellas had jewels and fancy handles made of rare wood. Some umbrellas had hollow（空的）handles. Perfume, knives, and even pens and paper were kept in these handles.Umbrellas were improved in the 1800s. Before that time most were made with whale bones. They weighed 10 pounds! By 1826, their weight was down to 1.5 pounds. Steel frames（框架）were first used in 1852. Covers for these umbrellas were made of waxed silk or oiled paper.Today's umbrellas are very light. Some people think they turn inside out too easily, but modern umbrellas do have some good points. For example, they fold up into smaller packages. Some have plastic windows in them so people can see where they're walking. When the rain comes down, people can pop open their umbrellas quickly and be on their way.The umbrella were popular in northern Europe by the 1600s.B.C.D.Some people in England of 1720 kept knives in their umbrella handles.Umbrellas were improved in the 1700s and iron frames were first used.Modern umbrellas are big and clumsy, but can fold up into smaller packages.15.（1）The word queasy in the title means .A.sick to your stomachB.sad and worriedC.short of breathD.tired and sleepy（2）The best thing we can do t keep fish healthy is to .A.B.CTHAT QUEASY FEELINGRemember the last time you were sick? Maybe you didn't feel like eating because you had a stomach ache.And your mom or dad told you that you had to eat to keep up your strength. So you ate, even though you didn't feel like it. When fish get sick, they often don't feel like eating, either. The longer they go without eating, the sicker they get. Sometimes, the fish die.WILD FISH DON'T HAVE DCTORSFish that live in hatcheries（孵卵所）are constantly watched to make sure they don't get sick. But sometimes they get sick anyway. Then, the people who care for them medicine to help them get better. But fish that live in rivers and lakes don't have anyone watching over them all the time. If they get sick, people might not find out about it for a long time --- too late to keep a disease from spreading. So the best thing we can do for fish that live in our rivers and lakes is to help them NOT get sick in the first place.PRESCRIPTION: SQUEAKY CLEANThe most important thing we can do is to make sure fish have a clean, healthy place to live. We have to protect our rivers and lakes by preventing pollution and caring for the environment where these fish live,breathe, and eat. The lake or river in which fish live is where they find food and protection, and its waters carry oxygen（氧气）that they breathe through their gills（鳃）. Usually, if we can keep the habitat healthy, we can keep the fish healthy.THIS LITTLE FISH STAYED HOMEFish have ways of fighting off germs（细菌）they've become used to. Their bodied have learned to protect themselves from such germs. This protection is called immunity （免疫力）. You probably have immunity to certain germs, too --- chicken pox, for example. Once you've had it, you never get it again. But, like humans, fish often cannot fight off new germs. That's why fish should NOT be moved from one stream or lake to another except by biologists who have made sure the fish do not have germs. Next time you look into your favorite river or lake, think about the fish that live there. And always do all you can to help keep the fish and the water healthy.get fish back to hatcheries and watched overremove dirty oxygen from rivers and lakesC.D.（3）This article is mostly telling about .A.B.C.D.move fish from one stream or lake to anotherkeep rivers and lakes clean and free of pollutionhow hatcheries help keep fish healthywhy sick fish don't feel like eatingwhy fish become used to some germshow people can keep fish healthy16.（1） Examples of service learning may NOT include .A.teaching a studentB.working in a soup kitchenC.cleaning up a polluted riverD.writing a report afterward（2）Supporters believes service learning is mainly for .A.B.C.DThe requirements for high school graduation have just changed in my community（社区）. As a result, all students must complete sixty hours of service learning, or they cannot finish the education in high school.Service learning is a school subject that also helps the community. Examples of service learning include cleaning up a polluted river, working in a soup kitchen, or teaching a student. During a service experience, students must keep a diary and then write a report about what they have learned.Supporters state that there are many benefits of service learning. Perhaps most importantly, students are forced to think beyond their own interests and realized the needs of others. Students are also able to learn real-life skills that include responsibility, problem-solving, and working as part of a team. Finally, students can think about possible careers（职业）through service learning. For example, if a student wonders what teaching is like,he or she can choose to work in an elementary school classroom a few afternoons each month.While there are many benefits, people who disagree with service learning point out problems with the new requirement. First, they hold their opinion that the main reason students go to school is to learn key subjects and skills. Because service learning takes too much time, students spend less time studying the key subjects.Second, they believe that forcing students to work without pay goes against the law. By requiring service, the school takes away a person's freedom to choose.In my opinion, service learning is a great way to contribute to the community,learn new skills, and think about different careers. However, I don't believe you should force people to help others —the wish to help must come from the heart. I think the best way is one that gives students choices: a student should be able to choose sixty hours of self-study or sixty hours of service.Choice encourages both freedom and responsibility, and as young adults, we must learn to deal with both wisely.teaching students real-life skillspractising students to work as a teamforcing students know what others need阅读与表达D.（3）People who disagree with service learning think that .A.B.C.D.（4）What's the writer's opinion on service learning?A.B.C.D.helping students think about their possible careersstudents must spend more time on key subjectsservice learning is meaningless to studentsthere are more disadvantages than benefitsforcing students to work goes against the lawStudents should be more responsible in service learning.Service learning is likely to be less important than self-study.Service learning should be encouraged in more high schools.Students should be free to choose between self-study and service learning.17.（1）How many pieces of advice are given in the passage?（2）Is everyone special?（3）What kind of person is popular?（4）What will happen if we follow all the advice in the passage?When you step into a new environment, you must have a strong wish to fit in. Fitting in means making morefriends, having more influence（影响） on others and getting more chances to live a happier life. Here is some advice that can help you.Be confident. Confidence attracts most people. Everyone is special and there is only one person like you in this world. Spend some time thinking about your strong points. If so, you will be able to build up confidence step by step. You won't have much difficulty fitting in.Be kind to everyone. Kindness is the bridge to your own happiness. When people notice your kindness, they will return it one day. Always give more than you receive, and think more of others than of yourself. A person who cares for others is popular everywhere.Be active in group activities. Various activities like playing football can help you to be known to others. You may add more friends to your circle. At the same time, you'll be amazed to see how much they like you. Instead of wasting time being alone, go out to dance and sing together with others to develop friendship.Be optimistic （乐观的）. Optimism makes both you and others feel pleased. It makes a good first impression（印象）. A pleasant smile costs the least and does the most. Humor catches others' attention as well.People will like you for making them live happily.If you follow what is mentioned above, you will be accept by people around you. As a result, you will fit in very well and enjoy your new life.填空翻译书面表达18.（1）Would you [ma ɪnd] turning off the light in the room?（2）You should practice more if you want to [ɪm'pruv] your English?（3）I [s ə'd ʒest] you go to a movie and relax this weekend.（4）He [h ɜ:t] his knees in the road accident this morning.（5）The restaurant is open every day [ɪk'sept]] Mondays.（6）It is a good [t ʃɔɪs] to go to school by subway in the rush hour.（7）My teachers always ['ɔ:f ə(r)] to help me when I'm in trouble.（8）The play Teahouse [d ɪ'skra ɪbz] the changes in Chinese society over fifty years.根据句意和所给音标填写单词。

Business people, foreigners and families alike are making good use of the growing industry.The first car rental firm opened in Shanghai in 1992 and now 12 car rental players are in the game, with more than 11500 cars in their books.The largest player—Shanghai Bashi Tourism Car Rental Center offers a wide variety of choices—deluxe sedans, minivans, station wagons, coaches. Santana sedans are the big favorite.Firms can attract enough customers for 70 percent of their cars every month. This figure shoots up during holiday seasons like National Day, Labor Day and New Year's Day, with some recording 100 percent rental.The major market force rests in the growing population of white-collar employees（白领雇员）, who can afford the new service, said Zhuang Yu, marketing manager of Shanghai Angel Car Rental Co.

Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new hotel, the world's first igloo hotel. Built in a small town in Lapland, it has been attracting lots of visitors, but soon the fun will be over.In two weeks' time Bergqvist's ice creation（作品）will be nothing more than a pool of water. "We don't see it as a big problem, " he says. "We just look forward to replacing it."Bergqvist built his first igloo in 1991 for an art exhibition. It was so successful that he designed the present one, which measures roughly 200 square meters. Six workmen spent more than eight weeks piling 1, 000 tons of snow onto a wooden base; when the snow froze, the base was removed. "The only wooden thing we have left in the igloo is the front door, " he says.After their stay, all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success. With no windows, nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below 0℃, it may seem more like a survival test than a relaxing （轻松的）hotel break. "It's great fun, " Bergqvist explains, "as well as a good start in survival training."The popularity of the igloo is beyond doubt, it is now attracting tourists from all over the world. At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10 rooms. "You can get a lot of people in explains Bergqvist. " The beds are three meters wide by two meters long, and can fit at least four at one time.

Careless methods of production and lack of consumer demand for environment-friendly products have contributed to the pollution problem. One result is that millions of tons of glass, paper, plastic, and metal containers are produced, and these are difficult to get rid of.However, today, more and more consumers are choosing "green" and demanding that the products they buy should be safe for the environment. Before they buy a product, they ask questions like these: "Will this shampoo damage the environment?" "Can this metal container be reused or can it only be used once?"A recent study showed that two out of five adults now consider the environmental safety of a product before they buy it. This means that companies must now change the way they make and sell their products to make sure that they are "green," that is, friendly to the environment.Only a few years ago, it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets, but now there are hundreds. Some supermarket products carry labels（标签）to show that the product is green. Some companies have made the manufacturing（生产）of clean and safe products their main selling point and emphasize TAL#NBSP it in their advertising.The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business. No longer will the public accept the old attitude of "Buy it, use it, throw it away, and forget it." The public pressure is on, and gradually business is cleaning up its act.(1) It becomes clear from the text that the driving force（动力）behind green productsis.A. public caring for the environmentB. companies desire for bigger salesC. new ways of doing businessD. rapid growth of supermarkets(2) What would be the best title for the text?A. Business and PeopleB. Business Goes GreenC. Shopping Habits Are ChangingD. Supermarkets and Green Products(3) The underlined word "it" in the fourth paragraph refers to.A. a selling pointB. the company nameC. a great demand for health foodsD. the manufacturing of green products20、【来源】 2001年高考真题（D篇）第67~70题8分(每题2分)2016~2017学年北京西城区北京师范大学附属实验中学高一上学期期中Ⅰ卷第64~67题8分If you people to name the one person who had the greatest effect on the English language, you will get answers like "Shakespeare", "Samuel Johnson" and "Webster", but none of these men had any effect at all compared with a man who didn't even speak English—William the Conqueror.Before 1066, in the land we now call Great Britain lived people belonging to two major language groups. In the west-central region lived the Welsh, who spoke a Celtic language, and in north lived the Scots, whose language, though not the same as Welsh, was also Celtic. In the rest of the country lived the Saxons, actually a mixture of Anglos, Saxons, and other Germanic and Nordic peoples, who spoke what we call Anglo-Saxon（or Old English）, a Germanic Language. If this state of affairs had lasted, English today would be close to German.But this state of affairs did not last. In 1066 the Normans led by William defeated the Saxons and began their rule over England. For about a century, French became the official language of England while Old English became the language of peasants. As a result, English words of polities and the law come from French rather than German. In some cases, modern English even shows a distinction（区别）between upper-class French and lower-class Anglo-Saxon in its words. We even have different words for some foods, meat in particular, depending on whether it is still out in fields or at home ready to be cooked, which shows the fact that the Saxon peasants were doing the farming, while the upper-class Normans were doing most of the eating.When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find Germany more "foreign" than France because the German they see on signs and advertisements seems much more different from English than French does. Few realize that the English language is actually Germanic in its beginning and that the French influences are all the result of one man's ambition.(1) The two major languages spoken in what is now called Great Britain before 1066were.A. Welsh and ScottishB. Nordic and GermanicC. Celtic and Old EnglishD.

How is it that he can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa, talking, go out to a ball-game, come back three and a half hours later, and they're still sitting on the sofa, talking?What in the world, Harold wonders, do they have to talk about?Betty shrugs. Talking? We're friends.Researching this matter called friendship, psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men. No matter what their age, their job, their sex, the results were completely clear: women have more friendships than men, and the difference in the content and the quality of those friendships is "marked （明显的） and unmistakable."More than two-thirds of the single men Rubin interviewed could not name a best friend. Those who could were likely to name a woman. Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend, and almost always it was a woman. More married men than women named their wife / husband as a best friend, most trusted person, or the one they would turn to in times of emotional distress （感情危机）. "Most women, says Rubin, "identified at least one, usually more, trusted friends whom they could turn toin a troubled moment, and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives.""In general, " writes Rubin in her new book, "women's friendships with each other rest on shared emotions and support, but men's relationships are marked by shared activities." For the most part, Rubin says, interactions between men are emotionally controlled—a good fit with the social requirements of "manly behavior" ."Even when a man is said to be a best friend, " Rubin writes, "the two share little about their innermost feelings. While a woman's closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage, it wasn't unusual to hear a man say he didn't know his friend's marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa."(1) What Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that.A. he is treated as an outsider rather than a husbandB. women have so much to shareC. women show little interest in ball-gamesD. he finds his wife difficult to talk to(2) Rubin's study shows that for emotional support a married woman is more likely to turn to.A. a male friendB. a female friendC. her parentsD. her husband(3) According to the text, which type of behavior is NOT expected of a man by society?A. Ending his marriage without good reason.B. Spending too much time with his friends.C. Complaining about his marriage trouble.D. Going out to ball-games too often.(4) Which of the following statements is best supported by the last paragraph?A. Men keep their innermost feelings to themselves.B. Women are more serious than men about marriage.C. Men often take sudden action to end their marriage.D. Women depend on others in making decisions.(5) The research done by psychologist Rubin focuses on.A. happy and successful marriagesB. friendships of men and womenC. emotional problems in marriageD. interactions between men and women四、短文改错（每小题1分，共10分）22、【来源】 2001年高考真题第76~85题10分(每题1分)此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。
