第Ⅰ卷第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AMany people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bu s, even though this means they have to get up early in the mo rning and reach home late in the evening.One advantage of living outside London is that houses are c heaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs qu ite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little hou se in the country with a garden of one's own.Then, in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of t he town. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend mo re time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fr esh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can sp end one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Th en, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has the re ward of one who has shared the secret of Nature.Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for t hem, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres , beautiful shops and busy streets, dancehalls and restaurants . Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if t hey had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one o f the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want; the rest they are quite pr epared to leave to those who are glad to get away from Londo n every night.21.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. People who like country things prefer to live outside the city .B. People who work in London prefer to live in the country.C. Because of certain disadvantages of living outside London, some people who work in London prefer to live inside London .D. Because of certain advantages of living outside London, many people who work in London prefer to live outside London.22. One can use the same money for ________ to buy a little h ouse with a garden in the country.A. getting a small flat with a gardenB. having a small flat with a gardenC. renting a small flat without a gardenD. buying a small flat without a garden23. When the flowers and vegetables in the garden come up, those ________ have the reward of one who has shared the s ecret of Nature.A. who live in the countryB. who have spent time working in t he gardenC. who have a garden of their ownD. who have been digging, planting and watering24. People who think happiness lies in the town would feel tha t ________ if they had to live it outside London.A. their life was meaninglessB. their life was invaluableC. they didn't deserve a happy lifeD. they were not worthy of their happy lifeBA serious problem for today’s society is who should be respon sible for our elderly and how to improve their lives. It is not onl y a financial problem but also a question of the system we wa nt for our society. I would like to suggest several possible solu tions to this problem.First, employers should take the responsibility for their retire d employees. To make this possible, a percentage of profits s hould be set aside for this purpose. But when a company mus t take life—long responsibility for its employees, it may suffer from a com mercial disadvantage due to higher employee costs.Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsib ility to the individual. This means each person must save duri ng his working years to pay for his years of retirement. This d oes not seem a very fair model since some people have enou gh trouble paying for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years. This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor.In addition, the government could take responsibility for the c are of the care of the elderly. This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions. Furtherm ore, some in-situation should be created for senior citizens, which can help provide a comfortable life for them. Unfortunately, as the pres ent situation in our country shows, this is not a truly viable ans wer. The government can seldom afford to care for the elderly , particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young.One further solution is that the government or social organiz ations establish some working places especially for the elderl y where they are independent.To sum up, all these options have advantages and disadvant ages. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that some combina tion of these options may be needed to provide the care we h ope to give to our elderly generations.25. What can be concluded from the passage?A. There is no single solution to the problems of the old.B. Employers should allow their workers to retire at a later a ge.C. Becoming independent should be the goal of most old pe ople.D. Taking care of the old is mainly an issue of money.26. The text is most likely to be found in a book about____.A. historical eventsB. social scienceC. political probl emD. political systems27. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this article?A. To point out the need for government support for old peo ple.B. To make general readers aware of the problems of retire d people.C. To discuss some possible solutions to an important socia l problem.D. To instruct retired people on how they can have a happie r life.CIt is true that human beings need some rest to stay alive, but it doesn’t matter when and how much aperson sleeps. And that’s what all doctors thought , until they heard about Herpin. Herpin, it was said,never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see th is strange man themselves.When the doctors paid a visit to him in his home in New Jer sey, he was 90 years old. They thought for sure that he got so me sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though t hey watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping. In fact , he did not even own a bed. He ne ver needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a co mfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were p uzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found on ly one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remem bered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real r eason? No one could be sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.28. The main idea of this passage is that_____.A. a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleepB. large numbers of people do not need sleepC. everyone needs some sleep to stay aliveD. people can live longer by trying not to sleep29. The doctors called on Herpin, expecting_____.A. to cure him of his sleeplessnessB. to find a way to free people from the need of sleepingC. to find out why some old people did not need any sleepD. to find that his sleeplessness was not really true30. After watching him closely, the doctors came to believe th at Herpin_____.A. needed some kind of sleepB. needed no sleep at allC.was too old to need any sleepD. often slept in a chair31. Herpin’s condition could be regarded as ______.A. a common oneB. one that could be curedC. an unusu al oneD. very healthyDSome time ago , I discovered that one of my chairs had a bro ken leg .I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting i t mended , as there were a whole lot of antique shops near m y home .So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me .I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception .I was quite wrong .The man wouldn’t even look at my chai r .The second shop , though slightly more polite , was just the s ame , and the third, and the fourth—so I decided that my approach must be wrong .I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind .I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper , “ Would you lik e to buy a chair ?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes , not a bad chair .How much do you want for it , sir ?”“Twenty pounds ,” I said .“OK,” he said , “I’ll give you twenty pounds.”“It’s got a slightly broken leg ,”I said .“Yes I saw that , it’s nothing .”Everything was going according to plan and I was getting exci ted .“What will you do with it ?” I asked .“Oh , it will be eas y to sell once the repair is done .”“I’ll buy it ,” I said .“ What do you mean ? You’ve just sold it to me ,” he said .“Yes , I know but I’ve changed my mind .I’m sorry , I’ll give you twen ty-seven pounds for it .”“You must be crazy ,” he said.Then s uddenly the penny dropped .“ I know what you want .You want me to repair your chair.”“You’re right ,” I said .“ And what would you have done if I had walked in and said , ‘ Woul d you mend this chair for me’?”“I wouldn’t have agreed to do it ,” he said .“We don’t do repairs , not enough money in it a nd too much trouble .But I’ll mend this for you , shall we say for a five?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused (感到有趣) by the whole thing .32.We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer _____.A.asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair B.was warmly receivedC.asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair D.was rathe r impolite33.The expression “the penny dropped” in the last paragrap h means the shopkeeper .A.changed his mind B.saw the writer’s purposeC.accepted the offer D.decided to help the writer 34.How much did the writer pay ?A.£20.

And each of us, if we live long enough, experiences the loss of persons we loved. Children ages eight through ten were asked what they thought about death,and these are some of their answers:“When you d ie,God takes care of you like your mother did. When you were alive,only God doesn’t yell at you all the time.’’“When you die,they bury you in the ground and your soul goes to heaven,but your body can’t go to heaven because it’s too crowded there already.”“Only the good people go to heaven. The other people go where it’s hot all the time like in Florida. ”“Doctors help you so you won’t die until you pay their bills.”I’ve observed that the loss of a loved one can be one of the most difficult things we humans can face. I’ve known friends of sick and dying people to sit by a bedside or in a hospital room for hours,even days, at a time. I’ve seen food in homes of people who are dying overflow from kitchen to dining room—food brought by comforting friends from church and con cerned neighbours. And I’ve observed friends just listen for as long as it takes.When U.S. Congressman Sam Rayburn discovered that he was ill,he announced to the House of Representatives he was going home to Texas for medical tests. Some wondered why he did not stay in Washington where there were excellent medical facilities. His answer was a beautiful tribute to friendship:”Bonham is a place where people know it when you’re sick,and where they care when you die. ”No one wants to go through difficult times alone. So Rayburn traded the best of medical technology for the closeness of loving friends. He knew that good friends are good medicine.

Everyone needs to face the loss of a friend.(3)What was Sam Rayburn most concerned about when ill?A . The closeness of loving friends.B . The medical examination.C . The excellent medical facilities.D . The development of his home.(4)What’s the best title of the passage?A . Friendship Cannot Stand Always on One Side.B . A Friend Is Easier Lost Than Found.C . True Friendship Lasts Forever.D . Good Friends Are Good Medicine.3. 阅读理解You can’t always predict a heavy rain or remember your umbrella. But designer Mikhail Belyaev doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. That’s why he created Lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain-sensing umbrella.The designer says he came up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “Once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain.I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy built into a street lamp,” he said.The Lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand Sensors then ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians shelter whenever it starts raining.In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360°motion sensor on the fiberglass street lamp which detects whether anyone is using the Lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed.According to the designer, the Lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lightning strike. Each Lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed at 2 metres off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.While there are no plans to take the Lampbrella into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and insists his creation could be installed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.(1)What do we know from Belyacv’s words in Paragraph 2?A . His creation was inspired by an experience.B . It rains a lot in the city of Saint Petersburg.C . Street lamps are protected by canopies.D . He enjoyed taking walks in the rain.(2)Which of the following show how the lampbrella works?A . motor→canopy→sensorsB . sensors→motor→canopyC . motor→sensors→canopyD . canopy→motor→sensors(3)What does Paragraph 5 mainly tell us about the lampbrella?A . Its moving speed.B . Its appearance.C . Its installation.D . Its safety.(4)What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A . The designer will open a company to promote his product.B . The lampbrella could be put into immediate production.C . The designer is confident that his creation is practical.D . The lampbrella would be put on show in Moscow.4. 阅读理解Generations of children grew up reading comic books secretly, hiding out from parents and teachers who saw them as a waste of time and a risk to young minds. Comics are now gaining a new respectability at school. That is thanks to an increasingly popular and creative programme, often aimed at struggling readers, that encourages children to plot, write and draw comic books, in many cases using themes from their own lives.The Comic Book Project was started in 2001 by Michael Bitz at an elementary school in Queens. Since its creation, the programme, which is mainly conducted after school, has spread to more than 850 schools across the country. It has gotten a big push from the craze among adolescents for comic book clubs and for Manga, a widly popular variety of comic originating in Japan.The point is not to drop a comic book on a child’s desk and say “read this”. Rather, the workshops give groups of students the opportunity to collaborate on often complex stories and charac-ters that they then revise,publish and share with others in their communities.Teachers are finding it easier to teach writing, grammar and punctuation with material that students are fully invested in. And it turns out that comic books have other built-in advantages. The pairing of visual and written plotlines that they rely on appear to be especially helpful to struggling readers. No one is suggesting that comic books should substitute for traditional books or for standard reading and composition lessons. Teachers who would once have dismissed comics out of hand are learning to exploit a style that clearly has a powerful hold on young minds. They are using what works.(1)Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?A . Japanese Comic Books.B . Comic Books in the Classroom.C . Reading Efficiently.D . A Current Craze.(2)The main purpose of the Comic Book Project is to .A . develop the cooperation among adolescentsB . make sure that students live a rich and colourful life after schoolC . help students who have some difficulty in readingD . popularize a new method of teaching (3)It can be inferred that .A . comic books were first used in JapaneseschoolsB . parents have different opinions about their children reading comic booksC . more and more teachers will realize the advan-tages of comic booksD . comic books will be allowed to enter all the schools in the country二、任务型阅读5. 任务型阅读Africa is a very diverse land with many different tribes. One tradition that many of these groups share is painting or marking their bodies and faces in color. They do this for many reasons. Some marks are used to identify people as part of a group.________Let’s look at som e different examples of body painting.________Among the Masai of East Africa, when men are old enough to marry and make decisions for their people, they participate in a special ceremony in which they paint their heads and faces red. This ceremony takes place every seven to fourteen years, so there is not an exact age for participating in it. The Samburu, also from East Africa, like to paint their faces and hair red because they think it looks attractive.________To show that he has killed a lion, a man will paint his body with a natural white material, making special marks to represent this accomplishment. The Masai men also use this white to show that they are no longer boys and are considered adults.One quite unusual example of face painting is done by the Wodaabe people of West Africa. Once a year, they have a beauty contest for men.________Then they add white and black circles and lines. Black paint is used near the eyes and on the lips to draw attention to the whiteness of their eyes and teeth, which the Wodaabe consider most beautiful.________As you travel, enjoy the beautiful and bright colors of Africa.A.Red is the common color in body painting because it often represents health and long life.B.Other marks are used for ceremonies such as weddings and during times of war.C.The ceremony expresses hope for rain.D.The Masai men also have a unique way of showing that they are brave.E.The women then decide which man they like best.F.The men pretend to fight each other.G.The men paint their faces yellow and red.三、完形填空6. 阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

Yale, Princeto n, Columbia and Dartmouth were opened soon after Harvard. In the early years, these schools were much alike. Only you ng men went to college. All the students studied the same sub jects, and everyone learned Latin, Greek and Hebrew. Little was known about science then, and one kind of school could te ach everything that was known about the world. When the stu dents graduated, most of them became ministers or teachers. In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men w ho wanted to become doctors. Later, lawyers could receive th eir training in Harvard's law school. In 1825, besides Latin an d Greek, Harvard began teaching modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began teaching American histor y.As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges bega n to teach many new subjects. Students were allowed to choo se the subjects that interested them.Today, there are many different kinds of colleges and unive rsities. Most of them are made up of smaller schools that deal with special fields of learning. There's so much to learn that o ne kind of school can't offer it all.1. From the second paragraph, we can see that in the early y ears, ______.A. those colleges and universities were the sameB. people, young or old, might study in the collegesC. students studied only some languages and scienceD. when the students finished their school, they became lawyers or teachers2. Modern languages the Harvard taught in 1825 were ______ .A. Latin and GreekB. Latin, Green, French and Ge rmanC. American history and GermanD. French and German3. On the whole, the passage is about _______.A. how to start a universityB. the world-famous colleges in AmericaC. what kind of lesson each college teachesD. how colleges have changedBAt thirteen, I was diagnosed(诊断)with a kind of attention disorder. It made schooldifficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a st ory and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my han d right away and said,“ Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.”She glanced down at me through her glasses, “you are no different from your classmates, young man.”I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I ha d to take it home.In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all bec ame clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. H e lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading syste m of raised dots(点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to t he blind.Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like th e “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen star ted to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I eve r give up?I didn’t expect anything when I handled in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day- with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were th ese words:“ See what you can do when you keep trying?”4.The author didn’t finish the reading inclass because ________.A. He was new to the classB.

One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.D. Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges. CHome to me means a sense of familiarity and nostalgia (怀旧). It's fun to come home. It looks the same. It smells the sa me. You'll realize what's changed is you. Home is where we r an remember pain, live, and some other experiences: We part ed here; My parents met here; I won three championships her e.If I close my eyes, I can still have a clear picture in mind of my first home. I walk in the door and see a brown sofa surrou nding a low glass-top wooden table. To the right of the living room is my first be droom. It's empty, but it's where my earliest memories are.There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays, and where I cried on Halloween---when I didn't want to wear the skirt my mother made for me. I always liked standing on that table because it made me feel t all and strong. If I sit at this table, I can see my favorite room i n the house, my parents' room. It is simple: a brown wooden d resser lines the right side of the wall next to a television and a couple of photos of my grandparents on each side. Their bed is my safe zone. I can jump on it anytime --- waking up my parents if I am scared or if I have an important announcement that cannot wait until the morning.I'm lucky because I know my first home still exists. It exists i n my mind and heart, on a physical property (住宅) on West 64th street on the western edge of Los Angeles . It is proof I lived, I grew and I learned.Sometimes when I feel lost, I lie down and shut my eyes, a nd I go home. I know it's where I'll find my family, my dogs, an d my belongings.

To look back on her childhood.DWhen milk arrived on the doorstepWhen I was a boy growing up in NewJersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to h is belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mothe r would pen a note--- “Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery”---and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it w as so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the mil k wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to tim e taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and t elling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big co mpanies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale eve rywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a deli very service.Recently, I saw an old milk box in the countryside. I took it home and planted it on the back porch(门廊). Every so often my son’s friends will ask what it is. So I s tart telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who bro ught us friendship along with his milk.12. Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer ________.A. to show his magical powerB. to pay for the deliveryC. to satisfy his curiosityD. to please his mother13. What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy's house?A. He wanted to have tea there.B. He was a respectable person.C. He was treated as a family member.D.

AFor some travelers, a typical hotel room is a bit boring. Here a re the world’s several strangest hotels.The MirrorcubeThe Mirrorcube is hung on a tree trunk and covered in mirrors . It accommodates two people at a time, with a double bed, a small bathroom and a living room. Access to the room is by a rope bridge connected to the next tree. Hidden among the tre es, the mirrors provide a 360-degree view of the surroundings.ICEHOTELICEHOTEL is the world's largest hotel made from snow and ic e. Guests can sleep in a bed made of snow and ice, at temper atures around -5 ℃.The entire building melts and gets reconstructed every year. Each November, a team of architects rebuilds the rooms fro m several hundred tons of ice. If your ideal vacation consists of walking around in snow pants and furs, ICEHOTEL is worth your visit.Marmara AntalyaMarmara Antalya provides guests with a constantly changing view. Floating in a pool of 478 tons of water and aided by six electric motors, it turns a full 360 degrees on its foundation se veral times a day.Tianzi HotelBuilt in 2016, this 10-floor building is shaped like Fu, Lu and Shou — the symbols o f Chinese gods of fortune, prosperity and longevity.Shou, on the left, is holding a peach that contains a suite(套房). Guests can enter the hotel through his right foot. If you ar e in China and near the Tianzi Hotel, visit it or stay a night bec ause you have the opportunity to rest in the world's largest im age hotel.1. What is the character of the Mirrorcube?A.

Tianzi Hotel3. What is unique to Tianzi Hotel?A. It has a long history.B. It is a 10-floor building.C. It represents good fortune.D. It is the largest image hotel.BGrowing up, I always hid my thumbs in my fists because of th eir unusual shape. Admittedly, they do look more like big toes instead of thumbs and from an early age, my thumbs earned a nickname “toe thumbs”.Then, while I was in high school, I worked as a cashier in a st ore. One day, while I was checking out a sweet old lady, she suddenly grabbed (抓住) my hands and said in a thick Polish accent, “You are Polish! Look at those beautiful Polish thumbs! They match mine!”She raised her hands and showed me her thumbs that looked exactly like mine! She grabbed and held my hands again and said, “Be proud of those thumbs and the history of your herita ge (传承) that comes with them!”I'll never forget that 30-second conversation with a stranger that forever changed my view of a part of me I once was embarrassed by and now em brace. Tonight, as I sat with my Samuel, he looked down at m y hand and said, “ Mommy! Our thumbs match!” I smiled and answered, “Yes, they do. Those are strong Polish thumbs! Be proud of them!”I no longer hide my thumbs in my fists. I'm happy that my chil d will carry on a piece of our heritage. I hope my son will neve r hide his thumbs like I did. I hope he will be proud of their “un usualness” and the history behind them. He carries on a uniq ue part of me (and all the generations before me) and that for me will always be beautiful!4. Which of the following might the author experience because of her thumbs?A. Great hardships in life.B. Being admired by her friends.C. Unexpected kindness from others.D. Being teased by surrounding people.5. What did the author and the old woman have in common?A. They had the same appearance.B. Their ancestors came from Poland.C. Their thumbs and toes looked the same.D. They felt the same towards their thumbs.6. What does the underlined word “embrace” in Paragraph 3 p robably mean?A. Be ashamed of.B. Be curious about.C. Accept willingly.D. Bear bravely.7. What is the best title for this text?A. Polish thumbsB. Polish mannersC. A heritage of beautyD. Say no to embarrassmentCIf you are standing in front of an iceberg (冰山), it might look like the largest thing you’ve seen. However, you’re still only seeing the small part above the water. About 9 0 percent of the iceberg is below the water. The same idea rel ates to culture, Amy Melendez explained.Amy teaches English and trains English educators in Washing ton. She works at a number of schools, including Northern Virginia Community College and Georgetown University. She sai d that many students and teachers mistakenly think culture is just the things that are easy to see, like food, music, clothing and holidays. But she said that most culture is represented in what cannot be seen: people's expectations, beliefs and value s.So she brings lessons about this into the classroom. She teac hes learners how to understand and value cultural differences and communicate more effectively with people from other cult ures.Like Amy, Michelle Stabler is an English educator who has ta ught intercultural communication. Currently, she is a professor of Columbia University in New York City.Both Amy and Michelle explained that the subject of cultural u nderstanding is a natural part of language teaching. They not ed that language and culture are inseparable: words and expr essions have cultural origins.They also said that cultural tolerance helps learners feel safe i n the classroom. Michelle explained, "In other words, they don 't have to worry that people are going to criticize (批评) who they are or the things that they value most and believ e in. This gives students the freedom to focus their energy on learning the language without the concern that these things that are so important to them are going to be questioned。

To compare the advantages and disadvantages of the four theme parks.B. To explain the reasons of traveling to Disney World.C. To attract more people to pay a visit to Disney World.D. To express his opinions about the popularity of Disney World.BOn the third Sunday in June, Americans take time to recognize and thank a special person in the family -fathers! Father’s Day celebrates the importance of fathers, young and old and the men thought of as father figures.The words "the child is father of the man" come from William Wordsworth’s poem My Heart Leaps Up. "It means people’s personalities form when they are children. They will most likely have the same qualities as an adult that they had as a child.Used in everyday speech, one could say, "In his case, the child was father of the man; he loved nature as a child and now works as a botanist(植物学家)".Let’s say you want to tell a child a story about something that happened long before they were born. You could say it happened when they “were just a twinkle in their father's eyes.” This expression has a humorous an d dreamy feel. Here, the word “twinkle” suggests the interest your father had in your mother.When a much older man is interested in a much younger woman and supports her with his money, he is called he “sugar daddy.” The money part is very important-that's the sugar.Sometimes fathers are not a good influence or active in the lives of the children. In that case, a person may look for a father figure, a man who is not actually the person's father but who acts like one.The relationship between a man and his son can be complex. But the relationship between a father and daughter is often simpler. The expression “daddy’s little girl” is understood to mean that, in a father’s eyes, his daughter can do no wrong.There is usually not a dry eye at any wedding during the traditionalfather-and-daughter dance, especially if they are dancing to a song like Michael Buble’s “Daddy's Little Girl.”5. If a boy behaves just like his father, we can say.A. he is just a twinkle in his father’s eyesB. he is his sugar daddyC. like father, like sonD. the child is father of the man6. What do you know about “the child is father of the man”?A. A child is often spoiled by his father.B. People’s characters are formed when young.C. A boy will become a father when growing up.D. A child always shows his true nature.7. According to the passage, the song Daddy’s Little Girl is likely to be.A. movingB. SorrowfulC. CrazyD. funny8. The author writes the passage mainly to.A. introduce the origin of Father’s DayB. show a boy should respe ct his fatherC. explain the importance of fathersD. tell people several expressions about father.CIf you see a group of people dancing and singing on the street or in the railway station, you don't need to feel surprised. They are a flash mob(快闪族). Who are they Are they mobs? Don’t be confused by their name. Actually, a flash mob is a group of people who gather suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a brief period of time, and then quickly disappear.They are usually organized with the help of the Internet or other digital communications networks. The messages may be sent to friends, who send to more people. At a predetermined time, they gather and perform some activities such as exchanging books, coming together to look at the sky, waving their hands and yelling something at the top of their voice for 30 seconds. Then, they quickly disappear before the police can arrive Using mobile phones, the flash mob can change its place if the first one has been cancelled for any reason.Bill Wasik, sen ior editor of Hamper’s Magazine, organized the first flash mob in Manhattan in May 2003 and the first successful flash mob gathered on June 3, 2003. Wasik claimed that he created the flash mob as a social experiment designed to laugh at fashion seekers and stress the cultural atmosphere of wanting to be an insider or part of "the next big thing”.Flash mob gatherings can sometimes shock people. Such an activity might seemamusing and magical, but it also might frighten people who are not aware of what is taking place. Undoubtedly, flash mob can serve as good political tools and have great potential, such as using flash mob to advertise a product.The flash mob is now becoming more and more popular. People use it to do many things. Flash mobs give people from all walks of life an opportunity to come together to create a memory.9. What can you learn about the flash mob from the passage?A. The flash mob usually breaks up quickly for lacking enough time.B. Once the place for the activity is determined, it can’t be changed.C. The flash mob can be made use of in many fields just for fun.D. It gives people the chance to come together to do something unusual.10. How do flash mobs inform one another?① By using the Internet.② By writing letters.③ By yelling.④ By waving hands.⑤ By using mobile phones⑥ By holding a meetingA. ③④B. ①⑤C. ②⑥D. ⑤⑥11. The writer’s attitude towards the flash mob is.A. negativeB. ObjectiveC. FavorableD. doubtfulDPeople who often eat nuts appear to live longer, according to the latest study of its kind. The findings, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, suggested the greatest benefit was in those eating them on their daily diet.Eating nuts was linked to a healthier lifestyle including being less likely to smoke or be overweight and more likely to exercise. The British Heart Foundation said more research was needed to prove the link, “While this is an interesting link, we need further research to make sure if it's the nuts that protect heart health, or other sides of people’s lifestyle .”The study followed nearly 120,000 people for 30 years. The more regularly people ate nuts, the less likely they were to die during the study. People eating nuts once a week were 11% less likely to have died during the study than those who never ate nuts. Lead researcher Dr. Charles Fuchs, from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute andBrigham and Women’s Hospital, said, “The most obvious benefit was a decrease of 29%in deaths from heart disease, but we also saw a significant reduction-11%- in the danger of dying from cancer.”They suggest nuts are lowering cholesterol(胆固醇). and insulin resistance(胰岛素抗性). Nuts contain unsaturated fat(不饱和脂肪), protein(蛋白质) and several kinds of vitamins and minerals and they can take the place of snacks like chocolate bars, cakes and biscuits.Victoria Taylor, senior expert at the British Heart Foundation, said, “This study shows close connection between regularly eating a small handful of nuts and a lower risk of death from heart disease.” Choosing plain, unsalted food s rather than sweet, salted, or chocolate-covered will keep your salt and sugar intake down.12. According to the passage, what kind of people benefit most form eating nuts?A. Those who eat most nuts at a time.B. Those who eat most nuts.C. Those who eat nuts on their daily diet.D. Those who eat less nuts.13. Which kind of disease had a most decrease for regular nuts eater?A. CancerB. Heart diseaseC. Stomach diseaseD. Unknown14. The writer developed the article mainly by.A. providing factsB. giving exampleC. listing dataD. comparing the difference15. Which section should the passage be taken from the newspaper?A. Science sectionB. Health sectionC. Entertainment sectionD. Tech sectionELiving in a new country means experiencing a different way of life. ___16___ The cultures of all countries are unique, which means that people who have grown up in different places will have different ways of behaving, different ways of thinking about things and different ways of expressing themselves. Before you travel, it is useful to think about culture and the things that are affected by it ____17____.Culture is the values, attitudes, behaviors and beliefs shared by a group of people. ___18___ We learn about the culture of our own society in a very natural way as we grow up-we learn through “do’s” and “don’ts” about how we treat people, how we behave and what we believe in as children.___19___You can see some parts of an iceberg-just like you can see some parts of a country’s culture when you visit it. For example, y ou can see different ways of greeting people, hear different languages and observe different festivals and customs. However, a much bigger part of every iceberg is hidden under water. Even though this part of the iceberg is hard to see, it is very important -without it, the iceberg would not exist. The same is true of culture. There are many aspects of it which you cannot see when you visit a different country, for example the nature of friendship and the importance of time.___20___ It will take a long time to understand those values and beliefs because you have to work them out, but it is probably the most interesting part of any time you spend abroad.A. Culture is like an iceberg.B. Different people have different cultures.C. Doing so will help you prepare for living in a new country.D. Some people like to travel to new countries and settle down.E. The aspects of culture you can see are based on those values and beliefs that you cannot see.F. This means that culture is like a kind of glue (胶水)that holds society together.G. This is very exciting and interesting, but it can also be a little challenging at times.Ⅱ 完形填空(共20小题,每题1.5分,满分30分)It was a busy day as usual.

weeks before my12th birthday,my teacher asked me to conduct an experiment.When I mixed some powder together,they exploded.Molten liquid hit me in the face,but I felt no pain.I vividly remember standing there in a state of calm.I thought I was in a dream,but however hard I struggled to swim to the surface of consciousness,I couldn't wake up.I didn't understand how terrifying it was until I heard people saying,"Who's that?"That's when I knew I was unrecognizable.I was taken to hospital,but the doctors didn't know what to do with me.Later I was flown to Houston for surgery.Between the ages of13and16,I had40operations.As each operation came and went,my vision would come back,then fade again.Eventually,it faded completely and I had what was left of my eyes removed for cosmetic reasons.Since then,I have lived in total darkness.Most blind people,even if they don't have any sight they're aware of,are still able to sense light.That gives them a sense of day and night.But not me.I absolutely lost that sense of time passing.For many years,I felt my sight loss darkening my life like the loss of my parents from which I would never recover.But when I was in my40s,I realized I had to find a way to live.I trained to become a counselor,and that has helped me see my experiences in a different way.I can't fix people's broken lives-just like I can't fix my sight-but I can help them find a way to manage.Sometimes it feels as if all the struggles and negative experiences I've lived through were in fact a kind of preparation for helping others to make their own way towards the light.9.How did the writer feel when the mixed powder exploded?______A.Painful.B.Frightened.C.Desperate.D.Calm.10.What can we know about the writer?______A.She recovered her sight at last.B.She is now living a meaningful life.C.She just has slight sense of sight.D.She received40operations in28years.11.What is the passage mainly about?______A.Calling on people to care for the blind.B.Encouraging the blind to cheer up.C.Telling her own experience.D.Warning students doing experiments is dangerous.【答案】【小题1】D【小题2】B【小题3】C【解析】21.D.细节理解题.根据第二段I vividly remember standing there in a state of calmness.I thought I was in a dream,but however hard I struggled to swim to the surface of consciousness可知爆炸发生时作者很冷静;故选D.22.B.推理判断题.根据"I can't fix people's broken lives-just like I can't fix my sight-but I can help them find a way to manage."可知作者现在过着有意义的生活.故选B.24.C.细节理解题.根据"Two weeks before my12th birthday,my teacher asked me to conduct an experiment.When I mixed some powder together,they exploded"可知这篇文章主要向我们描述了她自己的经历.故选C.本文属于记叙文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了作者幼年因为老师的失责导致终生失明.此题主要考查学生的细节理解和推理判断能力.做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确选择.在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Heart

you feel stressed by responsibilities at work,you should take a step back and identify(识别)those of(1)(great)and less importance.Then,handle the most important tasks first so you'll feel a real sense

importance"可知,此处也应使用great的比较级形式.2.achievement本题考查名词.根据前面的"a real sense of"可知,of为介词,其后应用achieve的名词形式.3.is本题考查谓语动词.根据全文可知,本文时态为一般现在时,所以此处应用一般现在时.分析句子"Leaving the less important things until tomorrow often acceptable."成分可知,该句为动名词做主语,谓语动词应用单数形式.4.on.本题考查介词.focus on"关注,聚焦",是固定短语.5.as.本题考查连词.as…as possible"尽可能…",为固定短语.6.studies.本题考查名词."study"充当句子的主语,根据后面的谓语动词"show"可知,此处主语应用复数形式.7.regularly.本题考查副词.根据前面"if we take short breaks"可知,此处应用regular 的副词形式修饰动词短语"take short breaks".8.a.本题考查冠词.for a while"一会儿",是固定搭配.9.to bring.本题考查不定式.sb.be less likely to do sth."某人不太可能做某事",为固定搭配.故此处应用不定式.10.make.本题考查祈使句.前面的"whatever it is"引导让步状语从句,此处是一个完整的句子,因此只能用动词原形放句首,构成祈使句.本文是一篇说明文.工作中人们总会面临多种责任和压力,有时退一步,分清轻重缓急,合理安排,劳逸结合,效率会更高,工作也会更加得心应手.语法填空是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识的运用能力,在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意,在读懂短文的基础上,结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析.要解决好语法填空,离不开坚实的语法知识,有了坚实的语法知识才能对语言进行正确的分析和判断,从而答对题目.五、短文改错(本大题共1小题,共10.0分)38.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文.文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处.每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改.增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词.删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉.修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词.注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分.It

begin.Everyone was silent,wait to see who would be called upon to read his and her paragraph aloud.Some of us were confident and eager∧take part in the class activity;others were nervous and anxious.I had done myself homework,but I was shy.I was afraid that to speak in front of a larger group of people.At that moment,I remembered that my father once said"The clas sroom is a place for learning and that include learning from textbooks,andmistake as well.Immediate,I raised my hand.1.begin改为begun,考查时态,用过去分词和had构成过去完成时态.2.wait改为waiting,考查现在分词,句子主语和wait自己是主动关系,所以用现在分词作状语.3.and改为or,考查连词,表示他或她的,所以用or连接.4.eager后面加to,考查固定搭配,be eager to do sth急切地想做某事.5.myself改为my,考查形容词性物主代词,修饰名词用形容词性物主代词.6.去掉that,考查固定搭配,be afraid to do sth不敢做某事.7.larger改为large,考查形容词,a large group of people一大群人.8.include改为includes,考查主谓一致,主语为that,所以用第三人称单数谓语.9.mistake改为mistakes,考查名词的数,mistake为可数名词,所以用复数泛指.10.immediate改为immediately,考查副词,修饰动词用副词.【解析】本文讲述我想起父亲的话"教室是一个学习的地方,包括从课本中学习,也包括错误."克服害羞心理,在写作课上朗读自己的文章.1先通读全文.认真阅读短文,在做题之前确保已经弄清原文大意.注意文章中上下文的逻辑关系是否正确,时态、人称、主谓、指代等是否一致.2.聚焦出题热点、综合运用所学语言知识,分句(注意以句子为单位而不是以行为单位)对不同的错误情况进行分析和回答(即改词、加词或减词).3.再次通读全文,校对自己的改正是否正确.一般各种改错的方式都应该用到,如果出现了某一种改法(如加词、减词等)没有用到,要考虑自己的改错应该有问题,要对刚才不是很有把握的行进行推敲.在自己认为正确的行后划勾,并且校对其他行改正的符号是否准确,大小写是否拼写正确(这点同学们很容易忽视).如果某一行有两种改错方式要推敲哪一种是最佳改法.六、书面表达(本大题共1小题,共25.0分)39.假如你是李明,刚与美国中学生Fred结为笔友.根据下列提示给他写一封电子邮件介绍你的情况.1.个人情况(年龄、家庭、年级等)2.性格、爱好3.表达愿望.注意:1、词数:80--100;开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数;2、可以适当增加细节,使行文连贯.Dear

develop a deep friendship.I'm looking forward to your reply.(表达愿望)Yours,Li Ming【解析】First of all,I'm an eighteen-year-old boy studying in Senior1in Xinhua Senior School.(高分句型一)句中studying in Senior1in Xinhua Senior School为现在分词作后置定语首先,我是一个十八岁的男孩,在新华高级中学一年级学习.In addition,I can speak fluent English,which makes it convenient for us to communicate with each other.(高分句型二)句中which makes it convenient for us to communicate with each other为非限制性定语从句另外,我能说一口流利的英语,方便我们互相交流.英语写作是一项主观性较强的测试题.它不仅考查学生的写作基础而且还考查学生在写作过程中综合运用语言的能力.在撰写时要注意主谓语一致,时态呼应,用词贴切等.要提高英语写作水平,需要两方面的训练:一是语言基础方面的训练,要有扎实的造句、翻译等基本功,即用词法、句法等知识造出正确无误的句子;二是写作知识和能力方面的训练以掌握写作方面的基本方法和技巧.七、其他(本大题共1小题,共8.0分)40.Look

Molten liquid hit me in the face, but I felt no pain.I vividly remember standing there in a state of calm. I thought I was in a dream, but however hard I struggled to swim to the surface of consciousness, I couldn’t wake up. I didn’t understand how terrifying it was until I heard people saying, “Who’s that?” That’s when I knew I was unrecognizable.I was taken to hospital, but the doctors didn’t know what to do with me. Later I was flown to Houston for surgery. Between the ages of 13 and 16, I had 40 operations. As each operation came and went, my vision would come back, then fade again. Eventually, it faded completely and I had what was left of my eyes removed for cosmetic(整形的)reasons.Since then, I have lived in total darkness. Mo st blind people, even if they don’t have any sight they’re aware of, are still able to perceive light. That gives them a sense of day and night. But not me. I absolutely lost that sense of time passing.For many years, I felt my sight loss darkening my life like the loss of my parents from which I would never recover. But when I was in my 40s, I realized I had to find a way to live. I trained to become a counselor, and that has helped me see my experiences in a different way. I can’t fix people’s broken li ves —just like I can’t fix my sight — but I can help them find a way to manage.Sometimes it feels as if all the struggles and negative experiences I’ve lived through were in fact a kind of preparation for helping others to make their own way towards the light.24. How did the writer feel when the mixed powder exploded?A. Painful.B. Cool.C. Desperate.D. Frightened.25. What can we know from the passage?A. The author is now living a meaningful life.B. The author lost her sight but her eyes remained.C. The author recovered from her sight loss soon afterwards.D. The author still has difficulty waking up from her dream.26. What does the underlined word “perceive” probably means?A. Predict.B. Distinguish.C. Sense.D. Watch.27. What is the passage mainly about?A. Encouraging the blind to cheer up.B. Telling her own experience.C. Calling on people to care for the blind.D. Warning students doing experiments is dangerous.CAn American company says it has developed the world's first true jetpack for personal flight. It looks simple enough that almost anyone could use it to fly around.The flying machine is built like a backpack. It looks similar to the bags people use to carry anything from food to books on their back. The device is powered by two jet engines. The engines can operate on either airplane fuel or automobile fuel. It can fly for periods up to 10 minutes. It can reach 100 kilometers per hour and fly up to 3,000 meters in the air.The company says its personal flight vehicle has performed more than 400 test flights with no major problems. It says the jetpacks are still being developed and improved. The company recently launched a crowdfunding campaign online - with a $1 million goal - to raise money for more research and testing.JetPack Aviation's chief executive officer, David Mayman, says, “In the past, he adds, sensors used in the equipment could cost up to $100,000. Now it costs less than one dollar.” Lower costs and improvements in turbine(涡轮机)technology have made it possible for the company to develop several other devices besides it.Another version of the jetpack, the JB-11, will be even more powerful. Mayman predicts this model will be used by first responders or the military during search and rescue operations.The public demonstration of the JB-10 clearly showed the jetpack giving its passenger a smooth takeoff and landing. The equipment also appeared easy to operate and the device provided a stable test flight.But the chance to own this flyer comes at a very high price. The JB-10 device is currently listed at $250,000.28. The company collected money to .A. produce the devices in massB. purchase new equipment to produce itC. give some devices to charityD. develop the device further29. Which one can be used the title of the passage?A. New device makes personal flying a realityB. Personal jetpack has been inventedC. Man can fly in the sky possiblyD. A new invention for the future30. From the passage, we can know the new flying machine .A. is difficult to operateB. can fly at a great heightC. has been made in massD. costs a lot because of the sensors31. The passage is maybe taken from .A. a physics textbookB. a popular science magazineC. a journal about fashionD. a newspaper about scientistsDMany of us mistakenly believe that it's wrong to think we have any good qualities. We may spend a lot of time blaming ourselves for our negative qualities, thinking that self criticism is the key to improving our performance. However, a constant focus on our supposed shortcomings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people. How can we believe that others could like us if we believe our inner being is flawed(有缺陷)?If someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you. The person who doesn't like you might be fearful, or shallow, or busy or shy. Perhaps you and that person are simply a mismatch for each other at this particular time.Don't take yourself out of the game by deciding that your flaws are bigger than your good qualities. In fact, some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else. For all the factors that might cause one person to reject you, there are at least as many factors that will work in your favor with someone else.You might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight, but you may have a wonderful laugh and a real enthusiasm for life. There are many peopl e who don’t mind your extra pounds. You may drive a shabby car, but you might be a great dancer and a loyal friend. There are people out there looking for loyalty, or fun, or sweetness, or wisdom, and the package it comes in is not important. If you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends, keep in mind that not everyone is looking for physical beauty in their friends. You can decide to feel inferior(自卑)because you don't have much money and you don't drive a nice car. You can believe that this is the reason that you don't have many friends in your life. On the other hand, if you are very wealthy you may be suspicious that everyone is after your money and that nobody really likes you as a person.The point is that you can focus on just about anything and believe it's the reason you do not have friends and cannot make any.32. According to the author plays an important role in making friends.A. confidenceB. self criticismC. modestyD. admitting your shortcomings33. If you are not liked by a person, .A. you should find the reason in yourselfB. you may not be the one to be blamedC. you’d better talk with the person face to faceD. you and that person misunderstand each other34. We can learn from the third paragraph that .A. your weakness may also be your strengths in some wayB. you’ll have few friends if your flaws are bigger than your good qualitiesC. your negative qualities cause a person to reject youD. your good qualities may turn out to be your flaws35. Which of the following is true according to the author?A. It is important to lose weight.B. It is easier for a wealthy person to make friends.C. Inner qualities are more important than physical appearance.D. If you are not beautiful enough, try to improve your physical beauty.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。
