第Ⅰ卷( 共85分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,共40分)第一节(共15小题,每小题2分,共30分.)AMobile phones are in the hands of many kids and teenagers . However ,are they really necessary at school? Here are the pr os and cons(赞成和反对的理由).PROSThey can get in touch when necessary . The main benefit of h aving a phone is that your child can get in touch with you whe never they need to . This allows you to feel they are safe. They can ring the emergency services if necessary. If your chi ld is in immediate danger, they can use their phone to call not only you but the emergency services. This is of great benefit a nd could potentially save your child’s life.Mobile phones can be turned off or on to silent. As long as yo ur child remembers to do this their phone won’t cause a distra ction(分心) in class, but they will have a way to contact you if they nee d to. Giving them a standard rather than a smartphone will als o reduce the risk of distraction.CONSThe latest smartphones can almost double as a computer . It means they offer far more of a distraction to kids than they us ed to. Nowadays, children can not only text and make calls wi th their mobiles, they can also play games, surf the Internet a nd listen to music. All these features could disturb your child’s concentration if they play with them in class.It could interrupt lessons. Many children, even though they ar e asked to do so, forget to turn off their phones during lessons and their phones may make sounds. This not only annoys ot her pupils but also prevents them from learning.Besides the distraction problem, access to the Internet can al so be used to look up answers and mobile phones have some other functions---a calculator and the ability to save notes. The possibility of chi ldren having access to this information during exams could be too tempting(诱惑人的)for pupils not to take advantage of. 1. We can infer that many parents give their kids phones main ly to_____.A. enrich their school lifeB. make sure they are safeC. improve their performance at schoolD. help them communicate with friends2 To reduce the risk of distraction from phones, which sugges tion is given?A. Parents shouldn’t contact their children in class.B.There should be enough public phones in school.C.Teachers ask students to turn off their phones in class.D.Children use ordinary phones instead of smartphones.3. According to the last paragraph, for students, using mobile phones at school_____.A. has many advantagesB. helps them take notesC. makes cheating easierD. inspires their exploration spiritBFifty-two endangered sea turtles were brought back to good health and returned to the wild earlier this month. Teams of research ers drove the turtles all the way from Massachusetts to Florid a, where they were put back into the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean.The turtles’ story began last fall, when a large number of them got stuck near Cape Cod in . These tough turtles had to be n ursed back to good health for about six months before they co uld swim in the sea again.Sea turtles generally live south of the Carolinas in the Atlantic Ocean. But during the summer months, they take a ride on th e Gulf Stream-----a strong ocean current of warm water that runs north along th e east coast. The Gulf Stream brings the turtles plenty of tasty food to eat.When summer turns to fall, sea turtles head south again as th e water turns colder. That’s because sea turtles are cold-blooded. That means they cannot produce their own body hea t. They need the seawater to provide them with heat.Some turtles don’t get to warmer waters fast enough. When th e waters of the northern Atlantic turn cold in the fall, many turtl es can’t stand the cold. They can not move and become unab le to find their way. The turtles can drift only where the wind a nd tides take them.Many of these turtles are washed up on the shore near Cape Cod. Last year , 242turtles were rescued there.Scientists are unsure why so many needed to be helped. The turtles spent the winter getting better at aquariums along the east coast.As the weather grew warmer, 52 turtles were ready to return t o their natural habitat. It was a great success for the turtles an d the people who nursed them back to health.“It’s an exciting day for all these organizations,” said Connie Merigo of the New England Aquarium.“This is what we work f or. These are endangered species. So every turtle that gets b ack out in the wild and has a potential to contribute to the pop ulation is really important.”4.How do the sea turtles come to the northern Atlantic?A. They are carried there by a strong ocean current.B.Some researchers attract them there to do a study .C.Some fishermen bring them there and set them free.D.They are washed up there by a stream of cold water.5.Sea turtles head south when ____.A. they are tiredB. the temperature dropsC. they have had enough foodD. there is no tasty food for them6.Why are some turtles in need of help?A.They are starving.B.They are freezing.C.They are hurt by other animals.D.They are suffering from a disease.7. What does the underlined word “This” in the last paragra ph refer to?A. The turtles are shown to the public.B.The turtles are studied by scientists.C.Some turtles are returning to the wild.D.Some turtles will be kept in the aquariumCDoctors are known to be terrible pilots. They don’t listen be cause they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical scho ol. I didn’t realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a bette r surgeon(外科医生). I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather, I learned about crew resource management (机组管理资源),or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that cre w members should listen and speak up for a good result, rega rdless of positions.I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that , an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller ha d us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doct or was flying ; I was safety pilot. He was so busy because of t he bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear(起落架) down. He was a better pilot--and my boss ---so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in d anger. I put aside my uneasiness and said,“We need to put th e landing gear down now!” That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I have used it in the operating room ever since.CRM requires that the pilot\surgeon encourage others to sp eak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opp osite, the doctor does not overreact, which might prevent fello w doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I’m in the ope rating room,I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes t hey are not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from “landi ng gear up”.8.What does the author say about doctors in general?A.They are unwilling to take advice.B.They like flying by the mselves.C.They pretend to be good pilots.D.They are quick learne rs of CRM.9.The author deepened his understanding of the power of CR M when____.A.his boss operated on a patientB. he was in charge of a flying taskC. his boss landed the plane too lateD. he saved the plane by speaking up10. In the last paragraph “landing gear up” probably means__ _____.A. following flying requirementsB. making a mistake that may cost livesC.overreacting to difference opinionsD.listening to what fell ow doctors say11 Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.CRM:A New Way to Make Flying SafeB.Flying Makes Me a Better DoctorC.The Making of a Good pilotD. A Pilot--Turned DoctorDJimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has a good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to att end a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he w as supposed to be interviewed,he saw an elderly man wildly k icking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wron g with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand . When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said ther e was no need to pay him;he just helped someone in need, a nd he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said,“We ll, I could take you to the office for your interview. It is the leas t I could do. Please, I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting t o be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease(油迹) on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applic ants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed looks on the ir faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitti ng on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked,“Do you really need to be interviewe d?”Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turn ed out he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I mad e the right decision to have you as part of our workforce befor e you even stepped in this office. I just know you would be a tr ustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well--deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.12.Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?He was bored with his job.

managed at lunch and he told me he had made some new friends at the carnival，some young men who were twin brothers，and their mom and dad．They had paid him a few dollars and invited him for lunch in return for helping them set up their exhibit and wanted him to return the next day to help with other chores （杂务）．I was glad he had found new friends but a little worried about the type of people who might be traveling in a carnival．"Oh，Mom，these are just normal everyday people like anyone else．They just work at a carnival instead of in a store or something"．"Comedown tomorrow and meet them yourself，"he said．So the next day I went to the carnival and to the exhibit he had directed me to．The twin brothers turned out to be Siamese （连体的） twins，joined at the chest．He hadn't thought this fact

fit them？They're also really good cooks．Today，Joe，the one on the right，made me spaghetti （意大利面条） for lunch．"What others see first in a person is not what a child considers important．Where I saw

The CG (Computer Graphics) -animated musical film follows 24________adventures of the he adstrong teenage daughter of a Pacific Island chief and her st ruggles to find her identity.25_________ the daughter of Chief Tui, Moana is expected to follow her village’s traditions and rules, including the one her f ather 26_________(emphasize) since she was an infant: “Don’t go beyond the reef.”Unfortunately for Moana – 27_________name just happens to be the word for “ocean” in many Polynesian languages – she i s drawn to the water, which she finds wondrous and exciting. When the food supply for the island suddenly becomes deplet ed, Moana sets forth on a journey inspired by *ancestral tales of once-mighty *demigod Maui who may help her save her island hom e.The story, 28_________(inspire) by the history and tradition s of the Pacific, is a breath of fresh ocean air for everyone exh austed by the too-familiar princess-on-a-mission Disney trope. From birth, Moana is a respected part o f her community, and her parents and grandmother are proud of who she is and the fact 29________ she will one day make a fantastic chief, just like her father and his father before him. There is no love interest for Moana – she doesn’t need one.More importantly, 30________ mothers and fathers tell their da ughters what it means to be a princess, the words “adventuro us,”“*tenacious” and “compassionate” can now be added to t he definition.(B)The “space race” took place between the United States and th e former Soviet Union. Both countries competed to see which would be the first 31__________ (land) a person on the Moon. Early space ventures were limited to satellites that orbited the planet Earth.

However, the prize wasn’t give n for his 2004 self-penned autobiography but “for having created new poetic exp ressions within the great American song tradition.”It is certainly a(n) 42________choice. According to Steve Johnson of the Chicago Tribune, arts awards have almost always exclusively had an inherent bias toward so-called “high culture”, a category 43________ not to include pe ople who got their start singing in coffeehouses.With that said, the Swedish Academy has made a bold 44___ _____ to expand the definition of “literature”. It has, effect, ope ned the doors to popular culture, often 45_______ to as “low c ulture”.We live in a world where people who read comic books, watc h television shows, listen to podcasts and pop music, are ofte n also those who enjoy poetry and opera. And the Nobel, in 4 6 __________ Dylan’s work as literature, acknowledges that ar tists create works of popular culture with just as much care, c ontrol, courage and 47________ as Ernest Hemingway did sitti ng down at his typewriter.Dylan experts can battle over whether or not the singer indee d writes poetry- he was given the prize for his lyrics and music .If music and lyrics count as literature, as plays have done, co uld not other forms? Could we, someday, see a Nobel in litera ture go to US TV producers David Simon, Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki, or even US singer Beyonce?As Los Angeles Times pop music 48________ Robert Hilburnsaid about Dylan’s work: “He’s great cultural figure because of his words and his ideas.”And for all the flash and bang of any performed art or filmed project, it’s the words that 49 _________, wrote Carolyn Kellog g of the Los Angeles Times.American TV series Breaking Bad (2008-2013) didn’t exist without US actor Bryan Cranston’s brilliant p erformance--but he couldn't have gotten there without the words on the pa ge.Dylan’s Nobel says that words don't have to be bound within 50. ________ to be literature. It’s possible the Swedish Acade my will back off its radical choice. But for now, literature is all around us. Read it, listen to it or watch it.(B)A. fertilizationB. restoredC. surfaceD. contained AB. gr owth AC. bearsAD. extinct BC. waste BD. float CD. determines ABC. c onsistsMost plants reproduce by forming seeds. Flowering plants us ually produce seeds that are 51. __________ in fruits. The scie ntific name for such a plan is angiosperm (被子植物). The fruit covering makes seeds more likely to be scattere d over a wide area by animals, wind, or water. A plant that gro ws in many area is less likely to become 52. ________ than on e that grows in only one area. The fruit of an angiosperm is no t necessarily something that people can eat. In this case, the word fruit simply refers to the mass of plant tissue that surrou nds the send. Some angiosperm fruits are actually poisonous. Angiosperms depend on male and female flower parts to prod uce their seeds and fruits. At the center of the flower is the pis til, a female part that 53________ of a long column with a roun d base called an ovary (子房). Inside the ovary are the tiny ovules (胚珠) that become seeds if they are fertilized. 54__________occ urs when pollen from a stamen, a male flower parts, joins the ovule inside the ovary. Pollen that reaches the tip of the pistil grows a long tube down into the ovary. Once pollen joins the ovule inside the ovary, a seed begins to form, the ovary beco mes fruits, and the other flower parts wither and die.The form of a fruit 55__________ the manner in which seeds a re scattered. For example, birds and other animals may eat s oft, fleshy fruits, such as berries. These animals deposit the s eeds in their 56_________, usually far from the parent plants. Some hard-shelled fruits that 57________- such as coconuts- are carried by water to faraway regions. Some other types of fruits rely on the wind to scatter their seeds. The milkweed 58. _________ f ruit in the form of dry seedpods that grow until they burst. Onc e the seedpods burst, hundreds of seeds, each attached to m any light, silken threads, are carried off by the wind.No matter how much angiosperm fruits and seeds may differ, each seed contains the same blueprint for 59. ________. Unde r the right conditions, the tiny embryo within the seed grows in to a new plant. The embryo is made up of a root, a shoot, and one or two seed-leaves called cotyledons (子叶), which provide food for the sprouting plant. As the seed sp outs, the root anchors the seeding in the earth, and the shoot grows up through the soil. As soon as the seeding penetrates the soil’s 60. _________, it begins to grow its first true leaves.IV.

Reading ComprehensionSection A.Directions: Read the following four passage. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For e ach of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Ch oose the one that fits best according to the information given i n the passage you have just read.(A)As has been all too apparent in recent days at Balcombe, few issues cause greater concern than energy policy. Many villag e communities feel their countryside is being ruined by the po wer-producing machines of wind farms; yet they never take "direct action", even though the planning laws put them at a severe disadvantage. And the generous subsidies (财政补贴) , which encourage the expansion of wind power, are not favorable to the village communities and set landowners in confl ict with other residents (居民) .Those who disagree with the rapid expansion of wind farms state that the damage they cause is out of proportion(比例) to the benefits they bring, because their energy output can not match that of the carbon-based power stations they are supposed to replace. Supporte rs insist that wind must be part of a mix of renewables, nuclea r and carbon, and that the country is committed to meeting E U ( European Union) targets for non-carbon energy generation.Against this background, the fact that there is an argument within the Government over whether to publish an official repo rt on wind farms" impact on the countryside becomes even m ore extraordinary. The two parties in the coalition (联合) government are in disagreement over what it should say. We have some advice for the two parties: publish the report , and let the country be the judge. Even if it contains evidenc e that wind farms are harmful, it will hardly be a pleasant surp rise to people who do not like them. Equally, supporters must argue their case by acknowledging the concerns and explaini ng why they are either misplaced or worthy of much attention. The suggestion that further negotiations are to take place t o produce an "acceptable" report suggests that the politics ofcoalition government are doing the country harm in a certain way. Given the sensitivities involved, all the information shoul d be available so that people can reach their own conclusions , rather than being left with the suspicion（猜疑）that facts are being replaced by political beliefs.76. We can learn from the first paragraph that__________.A．energy policy catches much attention of the publicB．the residents are in favor of the expansion of wind farmsC．many village communities are satisfied with the s ubsidiesD．the planning laws offer great benefits to the residents77. Supporters think that the expansion of wind power____. A．is more rapid than that of carbon-based power B．guarantees an increase in energy outputC．is expected to be much better than that of nuclearpowerD．agrees with EU targets for non-carbon energy generation78. It can be inferred from the passage that____. A．an official report will settle the energy problemB．the two parties are divided over the issue of wind farmsC．the two parties have agreed on a further negotiati onD．political beliefs concerning energy issue go again st facts79. Which of the following reflects the author’s opinion? A．Increase political impact on energy policy.B．Release a statement of supporters on wind farms .C．Let the nation judge the facts about wind power. D．Leave the two parties to reach their own conclusi ons.(B)HOLIDAY FUN AT THE FOWERHOUSE500 HARRIS STREET ULTIMO TELEPHONE (02)9270111 Join in the holiday fun at the powerhouse this month linked to our new exhibition, Evolution & Revolution: Chinese dress 17 00s to now.

Never before have we seen people working together who represent such different ba ckgrounds and experiences. This difference of age, race, gen der, and work style makes it very difficult to organize and run a company.As a result, companies are looking for individuals who can ma nage a wide range of employees effectively. Increasingly, ma nagers are discovering that age differences among workers ar e a major cause of concern.This has been an important realization. The management diffi culties and challenges have led some experts to study interge nerational differences for an understanding of problems in the workplace. What they have discovered is interesting and may provide ways of improving working conditions in companies t hat employ individuals from different generations.The first thing to realize, they say, is that differences of opinio n about the importance of work and how to get work done are not a coincidence. That is, it is not an accident that young em ployees will be different from older employees. In fact, if empl oyers do not pay attention to these differences, it is possible t hat anger will build up between people and lead to difficulties i n the company.Resentment (仇恨) between members of different generations, if not attended to, can lead to extreme anger and unhappiness and even last ing enmity if people are not careful. That individuals from diffe rent generations should come to view each other as if they we re from different sides of warring countries should not be surp rising.It is natural for individuals from the same generation to form al liances (联盟), to come together for protection. Different generations repr esent different experiences in life, and these lead naturally to different opinions about oneself and one’s approaches to wor k.If you were raised in a time of plenty, when products were rea dily available and relatively inexpensive, you would believe th at prosperity is natural and expectable. If, on the other hand, y ou were raised in a time of scarcity, you would always be care ful not to waste things for fear you would not have enough. Yo u would make angry people who seem to believe that problem s will always solve themselves. Such optimism in the face of d ifficulties would be a source of unhappiness between you and them. It is difficult, in such circumstances, to achieve a happy, agreeable atmosphere in the workplace.84. What most possibly makes it difficult to organize or run a c ompany?A. Employees are in different generations.B. Employees are of different backgrounds.C. Employees work in different styles.D. Employees are in different races.85. Employers should pay attention to ______ if they want to a void anger between employees.A. the different understanding of problems in the workplaceB. the different views on value of work and working methodsC. the different generations of employees in the workplaceD. the different ways of expressing anger in the company86. The word “enmity” is closet in meaning to ______.A. hatredB. sorrowsC. ignoranceD. forgiveness87. What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage?A. Employees should be cooperative and friendly with each ot her.B. It is difficult for employers to have workers work in a friendl y way.C. The weakness of human nature causes the anger betweenemployees.D. The generational differences cause the disharmony among employees.(D)Charles Dickens’ novel A Tale of Two Cities is set in the years before and during the French Revolution (1789 - 1799). Durin g its course, French revolutionaries brought down the empire and established a republic of free and equal citizens.In reading the work, one sees that Dickens distorted some det ails of the French Revolution. At the beginning, Dickens notes that, in 1775, France was busy spending money. This mentio n of France’s spending touches briefly on what is perhaps the major cause of the French Revolution. Before the revolution, t he government often borrowed money because it spent more than it raised in taxes. The increased spending and borrowing made many people’s blood boil, yet Dickens focused instead on the nobility’s oppression and exploitation of the working cla ss, including peasants, as the causes of the revolution.The Marquis, one of the book’s characters, ill-treats and kills many people. Thus, he represents the nobles who mistreat the lower classes. One reviewer criticized this pi cture as an unfair representation of French society in the mid-1700s. The reviewer pointed out that the government would have punished nobles who mistreated or murdered. Nobles ma y have been guilty of other evils, however, such as not feedin g the starving masses after bad weather ruined crops in 1789.Dickens’ account of the storming of the Bastille fails to mentio n that the gang that stormed the prison was looking for bullets and bombs to use in defense against a possible attack by the king’s troops. Dickens does include some accurate details, h owever, such as the crowd’s finding only seven prisoners and freeing them and the pack’s executing (处决) the prison administrator and sticking his head on a post. T he scene that the women knit (编织) as they watch the executions may seem to be an odd deta il, but actually many women did knit stockings for the war effor t as they watched the killing machine at work.Dickens’ descriptions of the steady stream of sentenced peopl e into prison and the carts taking them to their deaths give rea ders some idea of the frequency with which officials jailed and executed people during the Rule of Terror, which lasted abou t a year. During the Terror, the government jailed about 250 th ousand people, tried (审判) and killed about 17 thousand, and executed about 12 thou sand without a trial. Those executed included people who opposed the revolution, people who offended the revolutionaries, and even some revolutionaries. About 15 percent were memb ers of the ministry or nobility.8 8 .What does the word “distorted” in Paragraph 2 mos t probably mean?A. Discussed.B. Revealed.C. Provided.D. Twisted.8 9 .Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. A wild crowd rushed into the Bastille to fight with the royal soldiers.B. The nobles’ mistreating and killing people is the main cause of the revolution.C. About thirty thousand people lost their lives in th e course of the Rule of Terror.D. Women were forced to work for the war supplies while watching people killed.9.What can be inferred from the passage?A. Dickens was once among the revolutionaries sto rming the Bastille.B. There was an extreme disorder and horror durin g the revolution.C. Nobles of those days in France were loaded with heavy social responsibilities.D. Classic literary works may serve as history textb ooks to a great degree.9 1 .Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. The Collapse of the French EmpireB. Unknown Facts during the Rule of TerrorC. Dickens’ Description of the French RevolutionD. A Critical View on A Tale of Two CitiesSection BDirection: In the following article, 4 sentences have been rem oved. Choose the most suitable ones from the list A-AC to fit into each of the numbered gaps. There are TWO whi ch do not fit in any of the gaps.A. Therefore, what economists try to do is to persuade people to reduce missed opportunities to save the cost.B. For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another, or be sleeping or watching a film.C. The biggest restriction on our resources is the number of h ours we can devote to something, so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time.D. We should weigh the choices of opportunities, learning to g ive up for better ones and obtaining what we want besides pro fits.AB. For economists, every decision is made by knowledge of what one must forgo—in terms of money and enjoyment –in order to take it up.AC. Yet, in a sense it’s human nature to do precisely that –we assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time.。

高中英语真题：2016-2017学年高一英语下学期期中试题_31
2016-2017学年高一英语下学期期中试题第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）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
ADo you ever dream about climbing Mount Everest, which is 8, 848 meters high? If so, you are not alone. Every year, thousa nds of people try to climb the world’s highest mountains or wa lk across deserts. Let’s take a look at some of the 21st centur y’s greatest adventures(冒险家).Ed StaffordEd Stafford from the UK is the first person to walk along the A mazon River from the mountains of Peru to the mouth of the ri ver in Brazil. There are many dangerous animals in the rainfor est, but he was only bitten by ants and mosquitoes. On his tri p, Ed had to find fruit and nuts or catch fish each morning. He used a radio to ask the people of the rainforest for food and h elp. Many people came to meet him and guide him through the rainforest. While he walked, Ed wrote a blog to tell the world about climate change and destruction(破坏) of the rainforest. Meagan McGrathSome adventurers are always looking for a new challenge. M eagan McGrath from Canada has climbed mountains, ridden a bike across Canada and run races in the desert to raise mo ney for the disabled.Erik WeihenmayerErik Weihenmayer from the United States has climbed mount ains and ridden a bike through deserts. Amazingly, Erik is blind and he wants other blind people who can’t see things to have active lives too. He has taken groups of young blind people climbing in Nepal.What happened on Ed Stafford’s journey?He received great help from the locals.He was attacked by dangerous animals.He studied fruit and nuts in the rainforest.He stopped people from destroying rainforests.Who has to face more challenges while adventuring?Ed Stafford. B. Meagan McGrath.C. Erik Weihenmayer.D.All of them3. What do the three adventures have in common?A. They are disabled people.B. They have great interest in climbing.C. They do something that benefits society.D. They are professional mountain climbers.BCharles Revson, founder of the successful cosmetic(化妆品) firm Revlon, once said, “In our factory we make lipstick(口红). In our advertising, we sell hope.”We could use a little more hope. I think that is why people buy lottery tickets(彩票). One poor mother, who was raising her children by long h ours of hard work, was asked, “Why do you waste your mone y on a lottery ticket when you can hardly make ends meet?”“Yeah, I buy a ticket every day,” the woman admitted. “But a d ollar is not too much to pay for 24 hours of hope.” There are p robably better uses for her money than buying lottery tickets, but she would rather keep a little hope than onto her dollar.We need hope in life. Without it, far too many people come tothe conclusion that they are powerless in the face of difficultie s. Without hope, they won’t make needed changes. They feel powerless. They can feel sorry for themselves and helpless to do anything about their problems, or they can believe there is a chance for something better.Norman Cousins, in his book Head First, the Biology of Hope, explains the power of hope. He tells of two doctors, who were to deliver a paper at a national meeting of cancer specialists. One was truly puzzled. “I don’t understand it, Bob,” he said. “We use the same drugs, the same dosage(量)，at the same schedule of treatment. Yet I get a 22% recovery r ate and you get a 74% recovery rate. How do you explain that ?”The other responded, “We both use etoposide, plationl, oncov in, and hydroxyurea. You put those letters together and tell pe ople that you are giving them E-P-O-H. I put them together and explain to people that they are rec eiving H-O-P-E.”4. Why did the poor mother buy lottery tickets?A. She did it just for fun.B. She put her hope on them.C. She wanted to make ends meet.D. She won much money through them.5. What does Norman Cousins mainly tell us in Head First, the Biology of Hope?A. The power of hope.B. The cure for cancer.C. Experiences of doctors.D. The smartnes s of doctors.6. How did Bob raise his recovery rate?A. He used different medicines.B. He made the patients hopeful.C. He gave the patients a higher dosage.D. He used the medicine in different order.7. How does the author make his view convincing?A. By giving examples.B. By doing experiments.C. By giving cause and effect.D. By sharing his own experience.CLove roasted(烤) Peking duck? We’ve got the burger for you.While McDonald’s and KFC continue to attract local tastes, P eking duck restaurant DaDong has opened its own fast food j oint in Beijing. It is known as Da Dong Duck Burger. The star attraction is, of course, the duck burger with Chinese cultural t radition.The duck burger contains Peking duck meat with onion, tomat o, cucumber and plum sauce(苏梅酱). It is quite similar to ordinary burgers in appearance. They usually sell about 300 duck burgers each day. As well as a gl ass of soda or hot honey pomelo tea and fries, the duck burge r combination costs 31 yuan.DaDong is one of Beijing’s top Peking duck restaurants. Han Yang, the restaurant’s manager, notes that all the chefs(主厨) working at Da Dong Duck Burger are from DaDong. The d ucks, roasting techniques and recipes are also the same. Sitting in the city’s Central Business District, the fast food joint has attracted customers working in office buildings nearby. This success has led to expansion(扩张) plans in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.Besides duck burgers, DaDong Burger’s menu includes a vari ety of dishes. For example, the improved Zhajiangmian uses spaghetti instead of Beijing handmade noodles. Local Cindy Z han, who went to the restaurant for lunch try the burger, said it surprised her. “It was much tastier than I had thought.” She a dds she was happy that the restaurant also offers a quality sal ad.The Chinese may argue that the burger isn’t just a Western th ing because it dates back to hundreds of years ago in Chines e history. The most famous Chinese-style burger perhaps is Roujiamo with meat in baked bread.8. DaDong Duck Burger is intended to _____.A. attract more foreignersB. sell roasted Peking duckC. fight against the fast foodD. introduce a Chinese-style burger9. What do we know about the duck burger?A. It costs less than 31 yuan.B. It tastes similar to ordinary burgers.C. It must be sold together with the fruit salad.D. It is too oily compared with other burgers10. According to Han Yang, DaDong Duck Burger _____.A. will enjoy a large marketB. has become the top fast food jointC. makes the duck meat in a different wayD. has nothing to do with the DaDong restaurant11. What is the best title of the passage?A. Hamburgers are not western traditional food.B. A new Peking duck burger has come to the market.C. A very successful restaurant-Dadong.D. The Roujiamo is the first burger in the world.DA recent report from the World Health Organization(WHO) sh ows that in Europe and the United States, many people drink coffee and tea at temperatures around 60℃. Moreover, tea-drinkers enjoy drinks at close to 70℃.The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) is p art of the WHO. The researchers carried out studies in Iran, C hina and South America, where hot tea and coffee were often served. They noted it was even more worrying that many peo ple also drank through straws(吸管). This sent the extremely hot liquid directly into the throat. Researchers found evidence that drinks at temperatures abov e 65℃, when swallowed, can cause cancer of the esophagus(食道癌) They once linked it to smoking and alcoholic drinks. Howe ver, this form of cancer is more common in areas where people prefer drinks at very high temperatures.The findings, however, are good news for coffee drinkers. In 1 991, the WHO listed coffee as a carcinogen(致癌物). The officials have changed their position on that listing. T hey now suggest that having very hot drinks is one probable c ause of esophageal cancer and that it is the temperature, rath er than the drinks themselves, that appear to be responsible. Health experts said that esophageal cancer is the eighth most common cancer worldwide. Cancer of the esophagus kills ab out 400,000 people every year. Next time you make yourself a cup of hot tea or coffee, y ou’d better let it cool down a bit be fore drinking.12. What does the WHO report show?A. A cup of coffee with milk tastes better.B. Coffee tastes better with higher temperature.C. Coffee and tea are important parts of lives.D. Many people like drinks that are too hot.13. What made the IARC researchers more concerned?A. People in Iran drink too much tea.B. Tea and coffee are often offered together.C. Drinking through straws is very dangerous.D. Drinking hot drinks with straws does harm to throats.14. What can be good news for coffee drinkers?A. Coffee drinkers can drink coffee whenever they like.B. Drinking coffee has nothing to do with cancer.C. The coffee drink itself might not cause cancer.D. Hot coffee will be moved out of the carcinogen list.15. Which of the following is suggested by health experts?A. Staying away from hot drinks.B. Developing healthy life habits.C. Paying attention to esophageal cancer.D. Having hot drinks after they become cooler.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.选项中有两项为多余选项What should you do if you find that you do not have enough ti me to get all your homework done?

A.There was something funny about my shoes. They were blacker than they had beensince they were bought. But now could that be?My first thought was, of course, magic because I knew that I hadn’t done anything to create that shine that looked so wonderful at the far end of my legs. Then, I called out to my wife, Anita. “Honey, thanks for shining my shoes! They look great!I was thinking I needed to get some new black shoes, but now...”“I didn’t shine your black shoes,”Anita said. “I didn’t shine your brown shoes, either.”Wait a minute. My brown shoes? I looked in the closet. A bright glow from the darkest corner confirmed Anita’s report. I paused for a second or two. “So really, thanks,” I said to Anita. “But I didn’t shine them,” she said.I looked at her, searching for any sign of telling lies. Anita certainly wouldn’t lie, but she would do a bit in the interest of something she considered a greater good--a good joke or a secret act of service. “So, if you didn’t shine them,” I asked, “who did it?” She gave me a confident, self-satisfied smile. So I immediately thought of Beth, my youngest daughter who lived close enough to be able to drop by when I wasn’t home to shine my shoes. But her response to my questions forced me to decide that it wasn’t Beth. Who was it?To be honest, I still don’t know for sure. That’s why it is with unknown acts of service. I love my shiny shoes. They are finally going to get dirty again. But the memory of those shiny shoes will remain with me, warming my heart forever, and inspiring me to fast acts of kindness of my own.21. Why did the author stop for a second or two after seeing his brown shoes?A. He was really puzzled.B. He liked his shoes much.C. He didn’t like the behavior.D. He was moved and felt thankful.22. When did the author’s daughter help shine his shoes?A. When she visited him.B. When she had nothing to do.C. When she wanted to do something.D. When she was praised by her father.23. What will the author do in the future according to the text?A. He will continue to look into the service.B. He will also do the gooddeeds secretly.C. He will inspire others to shine his shoes.D. He will stop others from shining his shoes.B.24. We can learn from the passage that__________.A. the blood drive is organized by Isabelle's motherB. Isabelle receives blood transfusions regularlyC. Isabelle has been ill for 11 monthsD. doctors will sponsor Isabelle's family25. To be a marrow donor, you must_____________.A. be a relative of the patientB. carry a driver’s licenseC. be at least 18 years oldD. apply to Michael’s Fund26. Those who want to help patients like Isabelle can ___________.A. come to Wiley Hall every WednesdayB. visit www. ribc. org for an appointmentC. contact their parents at 800-283-8385D. call at hospitals in Rhode IslandC.Many people love cats because they serve as excellent human companions. Furthermore, they also help in hunting and controlling the number of some unwanted creatures and pests. Also, these gentle pets have unique behavior that makes them very interesting and endearing to many people.They typical weight for this kind of animal is somewhere around 2.5 kilograms up to 7 kilograms. In terms of height, the average cat can grow as tall as 23 to 25 centimeters. Compared to other animals, they tend to sleep more as a means ofconserving energy. On a daily basis, they sleep at an average of 12 to16 hours. Their body temperature normally runs at an average of 38 to 39 degrees Celsius. There are numerous reasons why they fight against each other. Some of the most common reasons include dominance(统治), reproduction and territory(领土). Likewise, they tend to fight for the purpose of self-defense.If you have owned a cat before, you may have heard it purr（发出呜呜声). Have you ever wondered why it does that? Cats purr for different reasons, the most important of which is for communication. They also do this act when people pet them, putting them in a relaxed state and position. Furthermore, they also do this when eating. According to animal experts, female cats also do such act when giving birth. Nursing cats also use this kind of sound to communicate with their kittens. When communicating with people, feline creatures usually purr in order to show love and express friendship. Moreover, purring cats are sending people signals that they are not posing any kind of threat.Aside from the positive meaning of purring, it can also mean something bad for cats. Some studies show that cats create such sound when they are in pain, ailing or injured. Worse still, this can even serve as a signal that they are about to die.In addition to purring, these creatures also produce other important sounds for the purpose of communication. These include grunting, squeaking and trilling. They also produce other sounds such as growling, hissing and meowing.27.According to Paragraph 2, cats may give an impression of ____________.A.not being faithfulB.not being energeticC.being lovelyD.being friendly to their fellows28.Which of the following is NOT a reason why pats purr?A. To drive a stranger away.B. To show love to the young.C. To interact with their owners.D. To express friendliness to human.29.What does the underlined word “ailing” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Sick.B. Thrilled.C. Delighted.D. Doubtful.30.After reading the text, we can conclude that _____________.A.cats are many people’s favorite petsB.cats growl, hiss and meow to show loveC.cats use different sounds to communicateD.cats make sound differently before they die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，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。
