高中英语2008年全国高考模拟试题2008学年度江苏省常州市第一中学高三第一学期8月月考试题 2019.091,Increasing fluid intake(摄入量) by about a liter per day appears to have no negative effects on healthy older men. Dutch researchers report.Dr. Mark G. Spigt of Maastricht University and his colleagues note that older people are often dehydrated(脱水)，partly because their sensation of thirst may be slow. On the other hand, the elderly can easily become overly hydrated, because their kidneys(肾) tend to work less efficiently. Keeping extra water reduce the level of sodium(钠)in the body, which can have serious consequences. To investigate the general effects of increased fluid intake, the researchers examined data from a study involving 141 healthy men aged between 55 and 75. In random(随意的) order they were either advised to increase their water intake by a liter and a half per day, or were given a spoonful of syrup(糖浆) per day.After 6 months, the men urged to drink more water had managed to boost their daily fluid intake by an average of about a liter per day. There were no significant differences between the two groups in blood pressure or sodium level.The researchers thus concluded that the advice to increase fluid intake had no negative effects.Summing up, Spigt added, “It seems unreasonable to worry about the harmful effects of drinking extra water, he warned, “This does not mean that one can drink too much. Extreme intakes of water-more than 10 liters -can be harmful.1.The first paragraph is written to _________.A. attract readers’ attentionB. introduce some researchers to usC. introduce the topic of the passageD. tell us the result of a research2.According to Spigt and his colleagues, the elderly are often dehydrated _________.A. because their kidneys can’t work properlyB. because water can reduce the level of sodium in the body.C. because they need less water than before.D. partly because their feeling of thirst may be slow.3. Which of the following can explain the underlined word “boost”(in Paragraph 4)?A. IncreaseB. ReduceC. CompleteD. Require4.The main purpose of this passage is to tell people _________.A. elderly men like to drink more waterB. elderly men should drink more waterC. drinking extra water does no harm to elderly menD. drinking too much water does harm to people2,A Band plays in Lumley Park every Sunday afternoon. I often attend these open-air concerts if the weather is fine, because I find ita restful ways of passing time, and because the band plays many kinds of music: dance music, marching music, anything with a tune that you can whistle; you know what I mean.One Sunday, there was a blind girl in the front row of the audience, just behind the band-leader. She was about fourteen or fifteen years of age, I should think. She had been sitting down until about halfway through the programme, when the band started to play The Blue Danube(蓝色多瑙河) by Strauss. I’d never heard them play this particular piece before; and there was something magical about the way they played it then. They had only played a few bars when this blind girl stood up and began waving her arms about in time to the music, just as the band-leader himself was doing.After a while, I could see that more and more members of the band were watching the blind girl instead of the band-leader. And the leader must have noticed this himself, because he turned round and watched her, and saw that she was keeping perfect time. He was a very thoughtful man, that band-leader; I took my hat off to him. He moved to one side little by little so that the band could see the blind girl better, and after a while he stopped conducting altogether. The band knew the piece quite well, of course, so things weren’t likely to go seriously wrong. But she dept time beautifully, and she made it clear when she wantedcertain passages to be loud or soft, just as the band-leader himself had done. Since then, to be quite honest, I’ve never heard The Blue Danube played better anywhere.I have seldom heard an audience clap more loudly than that audience, when the music was over. I should think they must have heard the noise on the other side of the town. When the blind girl sat down, even from where I was sitting I could see that there were tears running down her face.1.The speaker thought that attending the Sunday afternoon concerts was a pleasure because ___________.A. a band plays music in Lumley Park.B. he could pass the time in a peaceful way in fine weatherC. his favorite music could be played by the band in the open air.D. all of the above2. When the band was playing The Blue Danube, a blind girl who was sitting in the front row behind the band-leader ________.A. stood up to play with the bandB. stood up and waved her arms keeping perfect time by herselfC. played just as the band-leader was doingD. listened to the particular piece The Blue Danube3. While the blind girl was waving her hands to keep time, ___________.A. many more members of the band were still watching their band leader.B. the band leader stopped conducting after a while and took off his hat to the girl.C. the band kept playing wonderfully even without their band-leaderD. the audience preferred the blind girl to the band-leader.4. From what the speaker said, it can be inferred(推断) that__________.A. he not only respected the band-leader but also thought highly of the blind girl.B. he thought the blind girl was doing better than the band-leader.C. he regarded the band as the first class band even without anyone conductingD. with the blind girl conducting, the concert was much more wonderful3,Ever since I was a small girl in school, I’ve been aware of what the school textbooks say about Indians. I am an Indian and, naturally, am interested in what the schools teach about natives of this land.One day, I read that a delicacy(美味) of American Indian people was dried fish, which , according to the textbook, tasted “like an old shoe, or was like chewing on dried leather.” To this day I can remember my surprise, my anger and my sadness at reading these words. We called this wind-dried fish “sleet-shus”, and tous, it was our favorite delicacy and, indeed, did not taste like shoe leather, and didn’t rot our teeth and bring about the various dietary problem that trouble Indian people in modern times. It took many hours of long and hard work to cure the fish in just this particular fashion. Early fur traders and other non-Indians must have agreed, for they often had this food as they traveled around isolated areas.I brought the textbook home to show it to my father, leader of my tribe at that time. On this particular day, he told me in his wise and modest manner that the outside world did not understand Indian people, and that I should not let it prevent me from learning the good parts of education.At a later time in my life, I had brought a group of Indian people to the country fairgrounds to sell Indian-made arts and crafts. My group was excited to make some money by selling Indian handicrafts. We thanked the man who showed us to our booth and told him it was nice of him to remember the people of the Indian community. The man expanded a little and remarked that he liked Indian people. “In fact,” he went on to state, “we are bringing some professional Indians to do the show!”As we stood there in shock, listening to this uninformed outsider, I looked at my dear Indian companion, an eighty-year-old woman who could well remember the great chiefs of the tribe who once owned all the land of this country before the white man camebringing “civilization”, which included diseases and pollution. My friend said not a word, but took the hurt as Indian people have done for many year.Of course, we all knew that the “professional Indian” were not Indians at all, but dressed in leather and dancing their own dances. And, anyway, how does one become a “professional Indian”?1. Which of the following statements about “sleet-shus” is true?A. It tasted like an old shoe.B. Eating it was like chewing on dried leather.C. It was delicious but bad for our teeth.D. It must have brought pleasure to Indians as well as early business men.2. You can infer from the story that the writer __________.A. is proud of her heritage.B. doesn’t like textbooks.C. wants to become a “professional Indian”.D. thinks highly of modern civilization.3. What does the writer mean by saying “how does one become ‘a professional Indian’”?A. Only the Indians know how to become professional Indians.B. The outside civilization can help and Indian become a professional Indian.C. An Indian is a born professional Indian.D. The outside civilization can help white people becomeprofessional Indians.4. After reading the passage, you don’t know __________.A. why the writer went to the county fairB. what upset the writer and her friend at the county fairC. what the writer’s profession isD. the writer’s attitude to the so-called civilization5. This story is primarily about ___________.A. customs of native AmericansB. how textbooks describe native Americans.C. misunderstanding between people from different culturesD. how an Indian becomes a “professional Indian”4,结构阅读：仔细阅读下面的短文，从A-E中挑选合适的句子填空，把答案填写在答题卷上。

You never know who these people 36 be, but when you lock your eyes with them, you know 37 that they will affect your life in some profound way.And sometimes things happen to you that may seem 38 , painful and unfair at first, but 39 you find that without overcoming those obstacles（障碍）you would have never realized your potential（潜力）, strength, will or heart. Everything happens 40 . Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck. Illness, injury, love and success all take place to test the 41 of your soul. Without these small tests, 42 they may be, life would be like a smooth, straight road to 43 . It would be 44 , but dull and completely pointless.The people you meet who 45 your life, and the success and the downfalls you experiences, help to create who you are and who you become. 46 the bad experience can be learned from. In fact they are 47 the most important ones. If someone hurts you or breaks your heart, 48 them, for they have 49 you learn about trust and the importance of being careful 50 you open your heart. If someone loves, love them back, 51 because they love you ,but because 52 , they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things. Make every day 53 . Appreciate every moment and 54 those moments everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.

With the shops so crowded and the staff so busy, it does not require any extraordinary talent to help yourself to one or two little things and escape unnoticed. It is known, in the business, as “hoisting”.But the hoisting game is not what it used to be. Even at the height of the sales, shoplifters today never know if they are being watched by one of those evil little balls that hang from the ceilings of so many department stores above the most desirable goods.As if that was not trouble enough for them, they can now be filmed at work and obliged to attend a showing of their performance in court.Selfridges was the first big London store to install closed-circuit（闭路）videotape equipment to watch its sales floors, in October last year the store won its first court case for shoplifting using as evidence a videotape clearly showing a couple stealing dresses. It was an important test case which encouraged other stores to install similar equipment.When the balls, called sputniks, first made an appearance in shops it was widely believed that their only function was to frighten shoplifters. Their strange appearance, the curious holes and red lights going on and off, certainly made the theory believable.It did not take long, however, for serious shoplifters to start showing suitable respect. Soon after the equipment was in operation at Selfridges, store detective Brian Chadwick was sitting in the control room watching a woman secretly putting bottles of perfume into her bag.“As she turned to go,” Chadwick recalled, “she suddenly l ooked up at the sputnik and stopped. She could not possibly have seen that the camera was trained（瞄准）on her because it is completely hidden but she must have had a feeling that I was looking at her.”“For a moment she paused, then she returned to the count er and started putting everything back. When she had finished, she opened her bag towards the camera to show it was empty and hurried out of the store.”56. January is a good month for shoplifters because .A) they don’t need to wait for staff to serve themB) they don’t need any previous experience as thievesC) there are so many people in the storesD) there are more goods in the shops than in other months57. The sputniks hanging from the ceiling are intended .A) as an amusing kind of decorationB) to make films that can be used in evidenceC) to frighten shoplifters by their appearanceD) to be used as evidence against shoplifters58. The case last October was important because .A) the store got the dresses backB) it repaid the investment on the equipmentC) other shops found out the usefulness of the equipmentD) the videotape taken by sputniks was accepted as evidence in court59. The woman’s action before leaving the store showed that she .A) was sorry for what she had doneB) was shopping in a hurryC) decided she didn’t really want what she had picked upD) wanted to prove she was innocentBMany people think a telephone is essential. But I think it is a pest and a time waster. Very often you find it impossible to escape from some idle or inquisitive chatter-box, or from somebody who wants something for nothing. If you have a telephone in your own house, you will admit that it tends to ring when you least want it to ring; when you are asleep, or in the middle of a meal or a conversation, or when your are just going out, or when you are in your bath. Are you strong-minded enough to ignore it, to say to yourself, “Ah, well, it will all be the same in a hundred year’s time?” You are not. You think there may be some important news or message for you. I can assure you that if a message is really important it will reach you sooner or later. Have you never rushed dripping from the bath, or chewing from the table, or dazed from the bed, only to be told that you are a wrong number?But you will say, you need not have your name printed in the telephone directory, and you can have a telephone which is only usable for outgoing calls. Besides, you will say, isn’t it important to have a telephone in case of sudden emergency—illness, accident, or fire? Of course, you are right, but here in a thickly populated country like English one is seldom far from a telephone in case of dreadful necessity.I think perhaps I had better try to justify myself by trying to prove that what I like is good. I admit that in different situations---if I were a tycoon（实业界巨头）, for instance, or bed-ridden I might find a telephone essential. But then if I were a taxi-driver I should find a car essential. Let me put it another way: there are two things for which the English seem to show particular aptitude: one is mechanical invention, the other is literature. My own business happens to be with the use of words but I see I must now stop using them. For I have just been handed a slip of paper to say that somebody is waiting to speak to me on the telephone. I think I had better answer it. After all, one never knows, it may be something important.60. What does the word “pest” in the second sentence of the first paragraph mean?A) Harmful thing. B) Unimportant thing.C) Troublesome thing. D) Necessary thing.61. Which of the following statements may be considered an honor to a telephone?A) It provides a means for all kinds of talks whereas the speakers needn’t come person toperson with each other.B) It can send a message of sudden emergency conveniently.C) It is densely-installed in England.D) It is impossible to ignore the telephone when it rings.62. The author uses the examples of a tycoon and a taxi-driver to show that .A) different people have different ideas about the telephoneB) high income is the precondition for the use of telephoneC) telephone is essential only to those people whose career depends on itD) working people need a telephone63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A) Some people use telephone for idle of inquisitive talk.B) It is quite difficult to get access to a public phone in England although many families havea telephone in their house.C) The author is excited to get the phone answered in the end.D) English people are fond of literature.CIt is possible to insure almost anything for a price. Film stars insure their legs, singers their voices, painters their hands. Anybody who owns something valuable probably insures it，otherwise they might suddenly have to find millions of pounds to replace a plane, or a factory or a collection of jewellery. Insurers share out these big “risks” among themselves so that even when a Jumbo（大型喷气客机）crashes and there is an insurance claim of 20 or 30 million pounds, the money can be paid without the insurer going bankrupt.But in the smaller way, most people are insured. In most countries it is illegal to drive a car which isn’t insured. The insurance usually pays for the damage to the car and, mor e important, it pays compensation or medical expenses to anyone injured in an accident. Sometimes an innocent person who is involved in an accident is crippled（使残疾）for life and the person who caused the accident might not have the money to pay him for years，but the insurance company does.Apart from car insurance, people insure their homes against fire and theft, and their possessions against loss. They often take out life insurance too, so that if they die before a certain age their family will receive a sum of money to live on. If someone lives beyond the age specified in his insurance policy, he usually gets a cash sum himself—it’s way of saving. Medical insurance is common today, too. It’s essential in a country like America where everyone has to pay fo r their medical treatment, but even in England some people take out insurance to cover the cost of private treatment in hospital or at home.Two hundred years ago, if your house or property was insured by a company they gave you a special sign to put up which showed that you were insured. If that was still done, practically everyone in this country would have a sign up, since we are all insured in some way against something.64. According to the passage which of the following statements is false?A. If one wants to get things insured, he has to pay 20 or 30 million pounds for it.B. It’s possible to insure almost anything.C. People can take out their life insurance.D. Medical insurance is essential in America.65. It is not a common practice today .A. to insure house against fireB. to insure against theftC. to put up a sign to show that you are insuredD. to have medical insurance66. From the whole passage we can conclude that .A. it’s beneficial to get insuredB. insurers tend to bankruptC. innocent people are likely to get involved in an accidentD. it’s illegal in any country to drive a car which isn’t insured67. The author mentioned all the following except .A. life insuranceB. medical insuranceC. compensation paid by the insurance companyD. profits made by the insurance companyDMost people feel stress at some time in their lives. Some people like this pressure and work better because of it. Other people are not comfortable with any stress at all; they soon become u nhappy if they feel stress. Sometimes stress can lead people to do things they wouldn’t usually do, such as overeat, smoke, drink, or use drugs. Stress, however, is a very normal part of life.It is important to understand that stress doesn’t come from an event itself; that is, from the things that are happening in our lives. It comes from the meaning we give to what has happened. For example, a crying baby may be stressful to one person, but it may not bother another person at all; a traffic jam may be stressful to one person while another person may be able to stay calm.We can experience stress any time we feel we don’t have control. It can come from a feeling that we can’t do anything about a situation. Basically, it is the body’s way of showing anxiety or worry.Stress is not just caused by our mental or emotional condition. It is also influenced by how tired we are, whether we have a balanced diet with enough vitamins and minerals, whether we get enough physical exercise, and whether we can relax.The point at which stress becomes a problem changes from day to day, even for the same person. In some situations, if we are rested and feel good about ourselves, a little stress will not be a problem. In another situation, if we are tired or feel unsure about our abilities, even a small amount of stress can cause problems. For example, we might begin to worry about things that haven’t happened yet instead of working on things that are happening now. Or we might not feel able to find solutions to everyday problems.68. According to the author, .A. stress is necessary to peopleB. stress is something we all want to avoidC. stress is common in people’s livesD. stress is the pressure to work better69. Which of the following statement is NOT true according to the passage?A. Stress comes from the things that are happening in our lives.B. A crying baby may not necessarily be stressful to all people.C. Some people may not feel stress in a traffic jam.D. Stress results from our own psychological reaction to what has happened.70. In which of the following situations we will most probably experience stress according to thepassage?A. When we feel hungry.B. When we are late for a film.C. When we don’t know a telephone number.D. When we are not sure what to do next.71. It is implied in the passage that .A. stress is a serious problemB. if we feel tired, we will always feel stressC. if we begin to think much about things that haven’t happened yet, this means we canovercome stressD. stress may not necessarily be a problemEAmong the most popular books being written today are those which are usually classified as science fiction. Hundreds of titles are published every year and are read by all kinds of people. Furthermore, some of the most successful films of recent years have been based on science fiction stories.It is often thought that science fiction is a fairly new development in literature, but its ancestors can be found in books written hundreds of years ago. These books are often concerned with the presentation of some form of ideal society, a theme which is still often found in modern stories.Most of classics of science fiction, however, have been written within the last one hundred years. Books by writers such as Jules V erne and H.G. Wells, to mention just two well-known authors, have been translated into many languages.Modern science fiction writers don’t write about men from Mars or space adventure stories. They are more interested in predicting the results of technical developments on society and the human mind; or in imagining future worlds which are a reflection of the world which we live in now. Because of this their writing has obvious political undertones.In an age where science fact frequently overtakes science fiction, the writers may find it difficult to keep ahead of scientific advances. Those who are sufficiently clear-sighted to see the way we are going, however, may provide a valuable lesson on how to deal with the problems which society will inevitably face as it tries to come to terms with a continually changing view of the world.72. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A) Science fiction is fairly new in literature.B) Science fiction is rather popular with people today.C) Science fiction only deals with some form of ideal society.D) Hundreds of books classified as science fiction are printed every year.73. Modern science fiction writers are interested in .A) adventures in spaceB) some form of ideal worldC) future worlds which have nothing in common with our present societyD) predicting developments in technology and their effects on society74. In our present world, .A) science develops at fast as is predicted by science fiction writersB) science develops faster than writers can imagineC) science fiction writers can always foresee what wonders science can doD) only science fiction writers can see the way science is going75. Which of the following is NOT the conclusion that we can draw from this passage?A) Sensible science fiction writers may tell us what to do in future.B) We are bound to have problems as we try to make progress in science.C) No one knows anything about what to do with the problems we are to face.D) Our views of the world are changing continuously.阅读下面的短文，请根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。

Our company was organized only two years ago, but we are one of the largest boat companies in California. As you know, your son has bought a boat from us recently, and I think you know how pleased be is with our product. Also, John Webb, one of your son's friends, has bought a boat from us and, we understand, is very happy with his boat. We are always happy to know that our customers are satisfied. We are writing to you now because, as you know, your son has decided to buy a larger boat, and we need your signature on the loan (贷款) papers. The loan application has already been signed by Danny. As you will see, there is one form to fill out, and there are three contracts to sign. Danny’s 26-foot boat was returned to our San Pedro Dock yesterday, and we are pleased to say that the new 36-foot “Challenger” will be delivered in two weeks from today. It is being inspected by our manager right now. The auto-pilot (自动领航仪) has already been installed by our mechanic. It looks as though everything will be ready in time for delivery. All we need are the signed contracts from you.Thank you. Tony Valention1. The main aim of the letter Tony wrote to Mr. Perkins is to__________.A. tell him to sign the contractsB. thank him for buying a new boatC. tell about something of his companyD. ask him to pay for his boat right away2. The underlined word “contracts” means ________.A. application forms from the buyersB. letters sent by the sellersC. formal agreements having the force of lawD. designs of a new product3. From the passage we can see that the boat company __________.A. isn’t an old oneB. is a world-famous oneC. is developing slowlyD. has to advise customers to buy its boats7,There is no doubt about it. The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously. I don’t mean while you’re unconscious. I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in. That is how I learnt the 30,000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world, mother tongue. I just pick them up. But some of them may be misunderstood. Now, to misunderstand does not mean not to understand. To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.The 5 % mislearnt of all the words we “know” will be the leastfrequently used words, as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt. Some of the misunderstandings may live with all our lives, without knowing that we got them wrong.Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one’s own mother tongue can be used for a second language learning. They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game. “There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across,” they will say. “You have to practise guessing what the word means from the context.”This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work. It may succeed in many cases, but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.And what’s more, there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves. Our learners’dictionaries usually have many meanings. A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible. Don’t guess! Look it up!1. It is certain that the best way to learn new words is _____________.A. to learn them by oneselfB. to learn by living in an English-speaking world and using them frequentlyC. to guess them from the contextD. to get more separate meanings of each word2. The underlined word “them”in Paragraph 2 refers to _________.A. the 30,000 wordsB. English teachersC. misunderstood wordsD. frequently used words3. Which of the following is most likely NOT true?A. Some of the words the writer knows must have been misunderstood.B. Most of the 30,000 words the writer learned are frequently used ones.C. How many words the writer got wrong are not known.D. All the words the writer knows were learned by reading them.4. It can be inferred that _________.A. when somebody is conscious, he or she usually can’t learn new words by heartB. we must use the words as often as possible in order to master themC. it’s the best way to learn new words that one should only guess their meanings from the contextD. only dictionaries can help us learn language well8, My first performance in front of an audience was coming up soon.I tried as hard as I could to remain calm, but my heart was racing. I stared down at my sweat-covered, shaking hands.I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were real people. They were not just my mum and dad, who would say, “Good job!” even if I messed up the entire piece.What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes?As it turned out, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight (聚光灯) was waiting for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat.Slowly I walked to the mud-brown piano in the center of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golf-ball-sized lump (隆起部分) in my throat and sat down. Slowly, I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory (象牙色的) keys. As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more unsure of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my years of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece so many times that I could play it backwards if requested.Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically (自动地).My eyes burned holes into (were fixed on) the pages in front of me.There was no way that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this to myself, I leaned forward and focused carefully on the music.When I came to the end of the page, a warning went off inside my head: DON’T MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE!Needless to say, I obeyed myself with all my heart and mind.And, proud of my “page-turning” feat (技艺), I finished the rest of the piece without making a single mistake.After the final note died away, a celebration went into action inside my head. I had finished. I had mastered the impossible.1. The author was nervous before the performance because _______.A. his or her mother and father weren’t presentB. the strong spotlight was shining onto the stageC. he or she hadn’t mastered the entire pieceD. he or she had never performed in public before2. The underlined phrase “mess up” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.A. put into disorderB. forget aboutC. stop halfwayD. do well in3. The author _________.A. didn’t make any mistake in the performanceB. felt better at the beginning of the performanceC. paid all attention to nothing but his / her performanceD. lost his / her concentration sometimes during the performance4. What did the author feel about his / her performance?A. He / She thought it was comfortable and successful.B. He / She thought it was very difficult but successful.C. He / She thought he / she had never made a mistake during the performance.D. He / She thought he / she played through the piece carefullybut light-heartedly.9,People and the sources of air pollution are found in the same places. This means that cities with large populations have the biggest problem of dirty air. Air pollution is caused by many different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes from cars. Statistics show that 93 percent of all auto trips are within cities. Another major source of dirty air is the burning of coal and oil for energy. This energy is needed to make electricity. Of course, much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.On the average, we throw away more trash and garbage than the year before. The burning of garbage contributes to air pollution. Many major industries are also responsible for the dirty air in the around cities. The fumes from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add particles to the air. The effects of air pollution range from mild headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy for traffic may cause headaches for loss of clear vision. Wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants and cause metal to corrode. In some of the larger cities, these fumes endanger the live of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.1. The key point of the passage is that _________.A. the cause of air pollution is peopleB. the causes and the effects of air pollution are both found in citiesC. the effects of air pollution range from headaches to deathD. air pollution is caused by dirty air2. What is the purpose of this passage?A. to persuade people to stop polluting the airB. to tell the causes of air pollutionC. to tell why cities are bad places to liveD. to describe why cities are bad places to live3. Why is air pollution more grave in the city than in the country?A. Because there larger populations in cities.B. Because the air in the city is dirty.C. Because there are more cars in the city.D. Because there are much more gas fumes from cars and burning of coal and oil for energy in the city than in the country.4. The fumes from coal and oil may cause metal ______.A. to turn blackB. to become rustyC. to corrodeD. to twist5. In larger cities, the fumes from coal and oil may contribute to ___________.A. heart diseaseB. lung diseasesC. loss of clear visionD. serious headache10,Did you know that vegetables can grow in the climates they arenot used to? Cool climate vegetables like asparagus (芦笋) are now able to be grown in places as hot as Hawaii. In Hawaii, marine (海的)engineers have been able to actually let you believe such vegetables that they are living in cooler climates. In that way they grow faster and taste better. What these engineers have been using is very simply cold sea water. How did they use it? They place pipes in the soil and cold water flowing through them cools the earth. This causes plant growth and enables gardeners in tropical climates (热带气候) to grow crops from cooler climates. Also some of these pipes are exposed to the air and they make the air “wet”and thus water the gardens. What especially makes people happy about this process (过程) is that nothing to the natural conditions is being used. Another new use for cold ocean water is to cool buildings. Engineers believe that for example the entire west coast of the United States could be air-conditioned using seawater.1. What does the new system enable the gardeners to do?A. Water the field with seawater.B. Grow asparagus in hot places.C. Grow cool climate vegetables in hot areas.D. Cool the soil.2. Sea water mentioned in the passage is mainly used to________.A. water the farmsB. water the gardensC. cool the airD. make the earth cool3. What is the report mainly about?A. How to grow vegetables in hot areas.B. How to grow cropsin tropical climates.C. How to cool the soil.D. How to use sea water.4. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. sea water can act as an air-conditionerB. asparagus are only grown in hot placesC. the writer wants to tell us something about scientific advanceD. sea water has many advantages11,John is b_______ on getting the first place in the following race.12,Better be envied than p______（怜悯）.13,He graduated from Cambridge University, so he was able to speaks ___________ English.14,Oliver Twist was written by one of the greatest n______ in the world.15,She ____________(叹气) with relief when she learned that herson passed the exam.16,After months of overworking, Jack was suffering from m and physical exhaustion.17,Princess Turandot (折磨)Liu , and Liu killed herself.18,She speaks Italian (流利).19,Big Joe Tuner never achieved much fame when he was alive mainly because there was still racial d_______ in the USA then.20,That man is with（醉心于）power.试题答案1, B2, D3, B4, B5, 1-5 DACBA 6-10 ACBCD 11-15 ABCDA 16--20 CBABB 6, ACA7, DADB8, DACB9, BADCB10, CDDC11, bent12, pitied13, standard14, novelists15, sighed16, mental17, tortured18, fluently19, discrimination20, drunk。

Our company was organized only two years ago, but we are one of the largest boat companies in California. As you know, your son has bought a boat from us recently, and I think you know how pleased be is with our product. Also, John Webb, one of your son's friends, has bought a boat from us and, we understand, is very happy with his boat. We are always happy to know that our customers are satisfied. We are writing to you now because, as you know, your son has decided to buy a larger boat, and we need your signature on the loan (贷款) papers. The loan application has already been signed by Danny. As you will see, there is one form to fill out, and there are three contracts to sign. Danny’s 26-foot boat was returned to our San Pedro Dock yesterday, and we are pleased to say that the new 36-foot “Challenger” will be delivered in two weeks from today. It is being inspected by our manager right now. The auto-pilot (自动领航仪) has already been installed by our mechanic. It looks as though everything will be ready in time for delivery. All we need are the signed contracts from you.Thank you. Tony Valention1. The main aim of the letter Tony wrote to Mr. Perkins is to __________.A. tell him to sign the contractsB. thank him for buying a new boatC. tell about something of his companyD. ask him to payfor his boat right away2. The underlined word “contracts” means ________.A. application forms from the buyersB. letters sent by the sellersC. formal agreements having the force of lawD. designs of a new product3. From the passage we can see that the boat company __________.A. isn’t an old oneB. is a world-famous oneC. is developing slowlyD. has to advise customers to buy its boats14,There is no doubt about it. The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously. I don’t mean while you’re unconscious.I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in.That is how I learnt the 30,000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world, mother tongue. I just pick them up. But some of them may be misunderstood. Now, to misunderstand does not mean not to understand. To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.The 5 % mislearnt of all the words we “know” will be the least frequently used words, as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt. Some of the misunderstandings may live with all our lives, without knowing that we got them wrong.Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one’s own mother tongue can be used for a second language learning. They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game. “There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across,” they will say. “You have to practise guessing what the word means from the context.”This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work. It may succeed in many cases, but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.And what’s more, there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves. Our learners’dictionaries usually have many meanings. A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible. Don’t guess! Look it up!1. It is certain that the best way to learn new words is _____________.A. to learn them by oneselfB. to learn by living in an English-speaking world and using them frequentlyC. to guess them from the contextD. to get more separate meanings of each word2. The underlined word “them”in Paragraph 2 refers to _________.A. the 30,000 wordsB. English teachersC. misunderstood wordsD. frequently used words3. Which of the following is most likely NOT true?A. Some of the words the writer knows must have been misunderstood.B. Most of the 30,000 words the writer learned are frequently used ones.C. How many words the writer got wrong are not known.D. All the words the writer knows were learned by reading them.4. It can be inferred that _________.A. when somebody is conscious, he or she usually can’t learn new words by heartB. we must use the words as often as possible in order to master themC. it’s the best way to learn new words that one should only guess their meanings from the contextD. only dictionaries can help us learn language well15, My first performance in front of an audience was coming up soon.I tried as hard as I could to remain calm, but my heart was racing. I stared down at my sweat-covered, shaking hands.I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were real people. They were not just my mum and dad, who would say, “Good job!” even if I messed up the entire piece.What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes? As it turned out, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight (聚光灯) was waiting for me. I grasped myhands tightly together, drying off the sweat.Slowly I walked to the mud-brown piano in the center of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golf-ball-sized lump (隆起部分) in my throat and sat down. Slowly, I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory (象牙色的) keys. As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more unsure of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my years of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece so many times that I could play it backwards if requested.Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically (自动地).My eyes burned holes into (were fixed on) the pages in front of me.There was no way that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this to myself, I leaned forward and focused carefully on the music.When I came to the end of the page, a warning went off inside my head: DON’T MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE!Needless to say, I obeyed myself with all my heart and mind. And, proud of my “page-turning” feat (技艺), I finished the rest of the piece without making a single mistake.After the final note died away, a celebration went into action inside my head. I had finished. I had mastered the impossible.1. The author was nervous before the performance because _______.A. his or her mother and father weren’t presentB. the strong spotlight was shining onto the stageC. he or she hadn’t mastered the entire pieceD. he or she had never performed in public before2. The underlined phrase “mess up” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.A. put into disorderB. forget aboutC. stop halfwayD. do well in3. The author _________.A. didn’t make any mistake in the performanceB. felt better at the beginning of the performanceC. paid all attention to nothing but his / her performanceD. lost his / her concentration sometimes during the performance4. What did the author feel about his / her performance?A. He / She thought it was comfortable and successful.B. He / She thought it was very difficult but successful.C. He / She thought he / she had never made a mistake during the performance.D. He / She thought he / she played through the piece carefully but light-heartedly.16,People and the sources of air pollution are found in the sameplaces. This means that cities with large populations have the biggest problem of dirty air. Air pollution is caused by many different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes from cars. Statistics show that 93 percent of all auto trips are within cities. Another major source of dirty air is the burning of coal and oil for energy. This energy is needed to make electricity. Of course, much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.On the average, we throw away more trash and garbage than the year before. The burning of garbage contributes to air pollution. Many major industries are also responsible for the dirty air in the around cities. The fumes from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add particles to the air. The effects of air pollution range from mild headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy for traffic may cause headaches for loss of clear vision. Wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants and cause metal to corrode. In some of the larger cities, these fumes endanger the live of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.1. The key point of the passage is that _________.A. the cause of air pollution is peopleB. the causes and the effects of air pollution are both found in citiesC. the effects of air pollution range from headaches to deathD. air pollution is caused by dirty air2. What is the purpose of this passage?A. to persuade people to stop polluting the airB. to tell the causes of air pollutionC. to tell why cities are bad places to liveD. to describe why cities are bad places to live3. Why is air pollution more grave in the city than in the country?A. Because there larger populations in cities.B. Because the air in the city is dirty.C. Because there are more cars in the city.D. Because there are much more gas fumes from cars and burning of coal and oil for energy in the city than in the country.4. The fumes from coal and oil may cause metal ______.A. to turn blackB. to become rustyC. to corrodeD. to twist5. In larger cities, the fumes from coal and oil may contribute to ___________.A. heart diseaseB. lung diseasesC. loss of clear visionD. serious headache17,Did you know that vegetables can grow in the climates they are not used to? Cool climate vegetables like asparagus (芦笋) are now able to be grown in places as hot as Hawaii. In Hawaii, marine(海的)engineers have been able to actually let you believe such vegetables that they are living in cooler climates. In that way they grow faster and taste better. What these engineers have been using is very simply cold sea water. How did they use it? They place pipes in the soil and cold water flowing through them cools the earth. This causes plant growth and enables gardeners in tropical climates (热带气候) to grow crops from cooler climates. Also some of these pipes are exposed to the air and they make the air “wet”and thus water the gardens. What especially makes people happy about this process (过程) is that nothing to the natural conditions is being used. Another new use for cold ocean water is to cool buildings. Engineers believe that for example the entire west coast of the United States could be air-conditioned using seawater.1. What does the new system enable the gardeners to do?A. Water the field with seawater.B. Grow asparagus in hot places.C. Grow cool climate vegetables in hot areas.D. Cool the soil.2. Sea water mentioned in the passage is mainly used to________.A. water the farmsB. water the gardensC. cool the airD. make the earth cool3. What is the report mainly about?A. How to grow vegetables in hot areas.B. How to grow cropsin tropical climates.C. How to cool the soil.D. How to use sea water.4. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. sea water can act as an air-conditionerB. asparagus are only grown in hot placesC. the writer wants to tell us something about scientific advanceD. sea water has many advantages18,John is b_______ on getting the first place in the following race.19,Better be envied than p______（怜悯）.20,He graduated from Cambridge University, so he was able to speak s ___________ English.试题答案1, D2, A3, A4, C5, A6, D7, B8, B9, D10, B11, B12, 1-5 DACBA 6-10 ACBCD 11-15 ABCDA 16--20 CBABB 13, ACA14, DADB15, DACB16, BADCB17, CDDC18, bent19, pitied20, standard。
