AMy grandmother often said to me, “You can count the number of your true friends on the fingers of one hand.” For a long time I thought this was true. However, I’ve now discovered my grandmother was only half right. Maybe we do only make a few “best” friends in our lifetime, but those aren’t the only people that we can call friends. There are many different types. Let me tell you about a few of them.One type of friends i s the type I call the “football mom friend”. My neighbor Sally is a good example. We both have kids who play football in a football club, and someone has to take themto practice and pick them up. Sally and I and two other mothers take turns to do this. We meet sometimes and have tea and talk about what our kids are doing, but those are the only times that we meet each other. I enjoy being with these women, but we don’t do anything else together.Another type is called the “hobby friend”. That’s the person you share an interest or a hobby with. Michael and Cater, who are brothers, are a good example of this type. We’re all in a bird watching club. Every few weekends the members of the club go on a trip to watch different kinds of birds. There’s nothing roman tic（浪漫的）about my relationship with Michael and Cater, of course. We just share interest in birds.Then there’s the “other half of the couple” type of friends. Jim is married to Rose, a friend that I’ve known since college. When Rose married Jim, I realized that I would have to be Jim’s friend if I want to continue to be Rose’s. Jim and I don’t share so many interests, but we do have a friendly relationship.26. What does the first paragraph tell us about?A.We need true friends in our lifetime.B.We have few best friends in our lifetime.C.We should make new friends.D.We must be friendly to all our friends.27. Many people are mentioned in this passage. Who is the writer’s true friend?A.Sally.B. Michael.C. Jim.D. Rose.28. Which of the following statements is RIGHT?A.Finally the writer agrees with her grandmother.B.Michael and Cater both fall in love with the writer.C.The writer herself sometimes takes her kid to the football club.D.Sally and the writer are close friends.29. How many types of friends are mentioned in the passage?A. 2.B. 3.C. 4.D. 530. From the last paragraph we learn that ________.A.the writer made friends with Jim only because of RoseB.Jim was the writer’s good friend at collegeC.Rose didn’t want the writer to be a friend of her hus bandD.the writer made friends with Rose because of JimBIf you see someone drowning, speed is very important. Once you get him out of the water, if he isn’t breathing, you have four minutes before his brain is completely destroyed. Support his neck, tilt（使翘起）his head back and press his chin（下巴）upwards. This stops the tongue blocking the airway in the throat and is sometimes enough to get him breathing again. If that doesn’t work, start mouth-to-mouth breathing. Press his nostrils（鼻孔）together with your fingers. Open your mouth and take a deep breath. Blow into his lungs until his chest rises, then remove your mouth and watch his chest fall. Repeat twelve times a minute. Keep doing until help arrives.To bring a child back to life, keep your lips around his mouth and nose and gently blow intohis mouth. Give the first four breaths as quickly as possible to fill the blood with oxygen. If, in spite of your efforts, he starts turning a blue grey color, you can feel no pulse（脉搏）,then pressing is the last chance of saving his life.With arms straight, rock（摇动）forwards, pressing down on the lower half of the breastbone. Don’t be too hard or you may break a rib（肋骨）. Check how effective you are seeing if his color improves or his pulse becomes independent to your chest pressing. If this happens, stop the pressing. Otherwise continue until rescue arrives.31.

One in four working parents worry that half an hour simply isn’t enough, while almost half fret that they aren’t a good enough parent during the week.However, parenting experts believe just 12 minutes a day may be enough for mothers and fathers to fully reconnect with their child —as long as they ask the right questions. Child psychologist Dr Claire Halsey said asking a series of open-ended questions can help improve parents’ relationship with their children.Among the questions recommended in the research are: “How many times have you smiled today —what made you laugh?”; “Can you act out what you did at breaktime?”; “Who is taller —mummy or you r teacher?” and “What are the names of the toys you played with today?” Parents of older children are advised to start up a conversation with: “I’ve got a great story for you but Iwant one in return… you first!” or “Tell me some school gossip … I’m all ea rs!”Dr Halsey, working with the makers of Ribena Plus, who commissioned the research, said: “There is no one as tough on their own parenting skills as a parent — but this study shows there is no need for parents to be so harsh. It’s hard for working paren ts to juggle all their responsibilities and it can feel like guilt is simply a parent’s lot —but it’s absolutely not. By using clever tactics such as a little preparation alongside use of open-ended questions —such as ‘Tell me what the best bit about you r day was?’ — parents can reduce the time worrying about chores and work and spend more time learning about their children’s day.”36. The underlined word reconnect in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.A.discussB. communicateC. understandD. combine37. According to Paragraph 1, almost half of the working parents ________.A.can spare only about half an hour to be with their kids every dayB.spend their daytime commuting, cooking dinner and doing household choresC.worry that half an hour’s s tay with their kids is far from enoughD.fear that they aren’t a good enough parent during the week38. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?A.I will be glad to listen.B.I will be very interested.C.I will listen carefully.D.I will call your teacher at school.39. Which of the following open-ended questions is for a three-year-old child?A.Where are you off to with your friends this weekend?B.Who played the best in your football match today?C.What science project are you doing at the moment and can I help with it?D.What are the names of the toys you played with today?40. What does Dr Halsey intend to tell us in this passage?A.It is not necessary for parents to spend too much time with their children.B.It is natural that working parents do not afford more time to reconnect with kids.C.It is important that working parents learn more parenting skills.D.It is clever that parents ask their kids questions instead of doing chores.DThree men were travelling across the desert when their car broke down. There were no other traffics, so their only hope was to walk.Before they set off, they looked around in the car for useful things to take with them. One of the men took a bottle of whisky. Another took an umbrella. The third unscrewed a door from the car and carried that.After they had been walking for almost a day, they came across a camel caravan travelling towards them.“Let’s try to join the caravan,” one of the men said. “It’s going the wrong way but we’ll be safer than if we keep on alone across the desert.”The other s agreed, so they asked the leader of the caravan for permission to join it.“You can join the caravan only if you answer three questions,” he said. He pointed to the first man’s bottle. “What is that and why are you carrying it?” he asked.“It’s a bottle of whisky. I decided to carry it with me so that if I feel miserable and want togive up, I can get drunk, cheer myself up and then keep on walking.”“Very sensible,” the leader of the caravan said. Then he pointed to the next man and his umbrella.“It hasn’t rained in the desert for many years,” he said. “Why are you carrying an umbrella?”“I don’t want to get heat exhaustion,” he replied. “The umbrella will give me shade from the sun.”“Very sensible,” the leader of the caravan said. He pointed to the third man and his car door.“And why are you carrying a car door?” he asked him.“I thought that if I got too hot I could open the window and let some air in,” he explained.中山市高一级2013—2014学年度第一学期期末统一考试英语科试卷（续卷）41.
