decided to park an old bus on the school car park and changed it into a library.Pupils helped to paint the bus,and after eight months,the new library was ready.36.Who was the first librarian of the first public library in Britain?A.Charles Dickens.B.William Thackeray.C.Edward Edwards.D.Graham Blake.37.Who can use public library services?A.CD or DVD sellers.B.Anyone living in Britain.C.A person with a library card.D.Newspaper or book writers.38.What is special about the mobile library?A.Keeping books in buildings.B.Returning books to readers.C.Offering special services to pupils.D.Going to a certain place at a certain time.39.Why did the school in London build its library on an old bus?A.Because parents offered the school an old bus.B.Because pupils thought it was fun to read on a bus.C.Because the school didn't have enough money to buy books.D.Because the school didn't have enough space inside the building.40.What can we learn from the passage?A.Schools in London like mobile libraries.B.Public library services in the UK are free.C.People living far away can't use libraries.D.Many famous British writers lived in Manchester.41.People can't see you when you're speaking on the phone,but they can hear you.So,the way you speak is especially important.In fact,researchers have calculated that80%of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice;and only20%is from the words you use.Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.1.Facial ExpressionsYour facial expression can influence your voice.For example,if you smile,your voice will sound warm and friendly,just the opposite,if you have an angry look on your face,it can make you sound unpleasant.2.VolumeIf you speak too loudly,you could sound angry.And if you speak too softly,it'll bedifficult to hear you.So,speak loudly enough to be heard clearly,but not so loud that you're shouting.3.PaceThe pace of your voice is how quickly you speak.And this can show how you feel.For example,an angry person might speak faster than normal.Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly.Try speaking a little more slowly than normal.This will make you sound confident,and it'll make it easier for the other person to understand you.4.GesturesGesturing can influence the tone of your voice.When you gesture,you bring more air into the lungs,which can make your voice sound warmer.Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need.The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you're doing,so you can gesture as wildly as you like!5.MovementIf you're feeling nervous,stand up and move around.It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident.6.Pauses(停顿)Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down.This will make you sound more confident and in control.Also,if you pause after giving some new information,it'll give the other person time to understand it.At the same time,listen to how the other person uses pauses.They could tell you something about thespeaker's feeling.For example,when a speaker is really angry,he might use pauses and says,"I…am…so…angry…"41.How much of telephone communication is from the words you use?A.20%.B.40%.C.60%.D.80%.42.What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone?A.Gesture wildly.B.Move around.C.Raise their voices.D.Make facial expressions.43.How can pauses help people talk on the phone?A.The speaker can show he is friendly.B.The speaker can tell more information.C.The listener will feel confident and in control.D.The listener will have time to understand the words.44.What is the passage mainly about?A.How to control the speed of your speech.B.Different good ways of talking on the phone.C.Reasons of making gestures while talking.D.How to improve communication among friends.45.What is the writer's opinion about telephone talk?A.Your voice on the phone will show what you're feeling.B.Using too many pauses while talking will annoy others.C.Speaking loudly makes it easier for others to understand you.D.The words you use are more important than the way you speak.第二节阅读填空阅读短文及文后A~E选项,选出可以填入46~50各题空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.46.In the middle of my home country there are very large places.They are hot and dry land called deserts.(46)Families live a long way from

Cold weather during winter months may keep many people from 1 home and running in the open air. 2 , a new study shows 3 the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather 4 improve one’s performance(身体机能). Many people say running in winter is difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find 5 easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is 6 than in warmer conditions. Besides, the body needs less water 7 a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from John Brewer, a sports scientist at St. Mary’s University in London. Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat 8 by sweating , and that the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. But sweating puts much strain(张力)on the heart, particularly in hot conditions because it is 9 harder to lose heat when the external environment is warm 10 .In addition, running in higher temperatures results in faster heart rates. Scientists found, 11 , that heart rates were about 6 percent higher in the hotter conditions. However, running in cooler temperatures has 12 advantages. One is that the body does not have to work so hard to pump blood to the 13 surface in cooler temperatures, which means running requires less energy. Several websites note that the most important thing for people 14 run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. And especially, keeping as dry as possible is very important 15 exercising in low temperatures. (294 words)( )1.A. leave B. leaving C. left D. to leave( )2.A. But B. Therefore C.

opened in Manchester in1852.It's first librarian was a man called Edward Edwards,Edwards attended the library's opening ceremony and two famous writers called Charles Dickens and William Thackeray were there too.How to Join aLibraryTo join a library,go to your local library and fill in a form.you'll receive a library cardwhich is needed when using library services.Mobile LibrariesNot everyone can get a library.Some people live far away from towns and cities.Other people find it difficult to go out because they have an illness or a disability.Thanks to mobile libraries,these people can still borrow books.Unlike most libraries,which store books in buildings,mobile libraries usually keep their books in a mini﹣bus.The back of the mini﹣bus has shelves for the books,and it is big enough

more.All Aboard the LibraryA schoo l in London didn't have space for a library inside the building.However,everybody agreed that it was still important to have a school library.So the head of the

like mobile libraries.B.Public library services in the UK are free.C.People living far away can't use libraries.D.Many famous British writers lived in Manchester.41.People can't see you when you're speaking on the phone,but they can hear you.So,the way you speak is especially important.In fact,researchers have calculated that 80% of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice;and only 20% is from the words you use.Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.1.Facial ExpressionsYour facial expression can influence your voice.For example,if you smile,your voice will sound warm and friendly,just the opposite,if you have an angry look on your face,it can make you sound unpleasant.2.VolumeIf you speak too loudly,you could sound angry.And if you speak too softly,it'll be difficult to hear you.So,speak loudly enough to be heard clearly,but not so loud that you're shouting.3.PaceThe pace of your voice is how quickly you speak.And this can show how you feel.For example,an angry person might speak faster than normal.Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly.Try speaking a little more slowly than normal.This will make you sound confident,and it'll make it easier for the other person to understand you.4.GesturesGesturing can influence the tone of your voice.When you gesture,you bring more air into the lungs,which can make your voice sound warmer.Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need.The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you're doing,so you can gesture as wildly as you like!5.MovementIf you're feeling nervous,stand up and move around.It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident.6.Pauses (停顿)Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down.This will make you sound more confident and in control.Also,if you pause after giving some new information,it'll give the other person time to understand it.At the same time,listen to how the other person uses pauses.They could tell you something about the speaker's feeling.For example,when a speaker is really angry,he might use pauses and says,"I…am…so…angry…"41.How much of telephone communication is from the words you use?A.20%.B.40%.C.60%.D.80%.42.What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone?A.Gesture wildly.B.Move around.C.Raise their voices.D.Make facial expressions.43.How can pauses help people talk on the phone?A.The speaker can show he is friendly.B.The speaker can tell more information.C.The listener will feel confident and in control.D.The listener will have time to understand the words.44.What is the passage mainly about?A.How to control the speed of your speech.B.Different good ways of talking on the phone.C.Reasons of making gestures while talking.D.How to improve communication among friends.45.What is the writer's opinion about telephone talk?A.Your voice on the phone will show what you're feeling.B.Using too many pauses while talking will annoy others.C.Speaking loudly makes it easier for others to understand you.D.The words you use are more important than the way you speak.第二节阅读填空阅读短文及文后A~E选项,选出可以填入46~50各题空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.46.In the middle of my home country there are very large places.They are hot and dry land called deserts.(46)Families live a long way from

The new move can help Internet become healthier and .A. stop online shoppingB. sto p online tradeC. stop online identity theftD. stop online spending money(B)We have known for a long time that flowers of different plants open and close at different time of day. This is so familiar that there seems to be no need to ask the reason for it. Yet no one really understands why flowers open and close like this at particular time. The process(过程) is not as simple as we might think, as recent experiments have shown. In one study, flowers were kept in constant(连续的)darkness. We might expect that the flowers, without any information about the time of day, did not open as they normally do . In fact, they continued to open at their usual time .This suggests that they have some mysterious(神秘的) way of knowing the time. Their sense of time does not depend on information from the outside world; it is, so to speak, inside them, a kind of “inner clock”.This discovery may not seem to be very important. However, it was later found that not just plants but also animals-including man-have this “ inner clock” which controls the working of their bodies and influences their activities. Men, then, are also influenced by this mysterious power. Whether we wish it or not, it affects such things in our life as our need for sleep, our needfor food.In the past, this did not matter very much because people lived in natural condition. In the modern world, things are different; now there are spacemen, airplane pilots and, in ordinary life, a lot of people who have to work at night. It would be very useful, then, to know more about the “inner clock” . It might help us understand more about ourselves.( )56. From the passage, a recent experiment showed that _____.A. different flowers open and close at different time of dayB. for their opening and closing, flowers do not need information from the outside worldC. flowers are influenced by weak light even when they are in a dark room.D. flowers can be used for telling the time( )57. Kept in constant darkness, flowers _____A. will not open or close as usualB. will open as they do in natural conditionsC. will not open any longer D will always remain in full blossom (开花)( )58. _____ have a mysterious power of knowing time without information from the outside world.A. Animals including man as well as plantsB. All living things except manC. Flowers are the only things in the world thatD. Neither animals nor plants( )59.The underlined word influence in paragraph2 has the same meaning with the word_____________A. changeB. affectC. increaseD.help( )60. Further study of the “inner clock” will be usefulbecause _____A. it might help us in some wayB. we do not yet understand plants and animals well enoughC. the number of spacemen and airplane pilots is fast increasingD. we should try to live more naturally than we do now(C)CCTV held a charity show in May to raise money for the earthquake-hit areas in Sichuan. Many famous stars took part in the show.①They didn’t ask for any pay, they all did it for free. There were a lot of performances like singing,dancing and cross-talks(相声). ②The audience(观众)were so excite d that they clapped(鼓掌)their hands all the time. Almost everyone was moved to cry by a lot of sad or moving stories. During the performances, they donated money to the disaster areas(灾区). The show was so successful.Beside s that, many other stars are doing things for disaster areas in many ways. Kungfu s tar Jackie Chan and the foundation(基金)named Hong Kong Emperor Group have together donated 10 million yuan. And he also sent his consolation(安慰)to the people in the disaster areas and encouraged them to hold on because “People all over the country are with you.” Xiao Ke, a songwriter, wrote and record ed a song “I Know You Will Come” to warm the hearts of the people in despair(绝望). CCTV’s top show “The Same Song” also held a charity special to help them.③Both the ticket money and the donated money will be sent to the disaster areas. As the Chinese sayi ng goes ④“One in trouble, all to help”. I believe that the whole world will become better if every one of us gives charity to others.61. 把①句的两个单句连成一个句子They did it ___ ___ any __ ___.62. 把②句改写成意思相同的简单句。

Cold weather during winter months may keep many people from 1 home and running in the open air. 2 , a new study shows 3 the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather 4 improve one’s performance(身体机能). Many people say running in winter is difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find 5 easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is 6 than in warmer conditions. Besides, the body needs less water 7 a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from John Brewer, a sports scientist at St. Mary’s University in London. Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat 8 by sweating , and that the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. But sweating puts much strain(张力)on the heart, particularly in hot conditions because it is 9 harder to lose heat when the external environment is warm 10 .In addition, running in higher temperatures results in faster heart rates. Scientists found, 11 , that heart rates were about 6 percent higher in the hotter conditions. However, running in cooler temperatures has 12 advantages. One is that the body does not have to work so hard to pump blood to the 13 surface in cooler temperatures, which means running requires less energy. Several websites note that the most important thing for people 14 run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. And especially, keeping as dry as possible is very important 15 exercising in low temperatures. (294 words)( )1.A. leave B. leaving C. left D. to leave( )2.A. But B. Therefore C.

I feel good when people I trust say 16 things about me. It helps me to have positive thoughts about my abilities, and it 17 a smile to my face. Most of us know people who always emphasize(强调)our best characteristics (品质)and who make us feel good about ourselves. People like that are important in our life. They are 18 friends who make us feel warm and loved.I also know people who always have negative(否定的)opinions about life and the world in general. These people19 have anything positive to say. Most of the time, I try not to pay much attention to this type of person or theirnegative 20 . However, 21 are also many people in my life whose opinions I value(重视)and trust very much. When they 22 objective (客观的)comments on me, I try my best to listen very carefully to them.There is an old 23 that the good medicine tastes bitter. I believe that encouragement and stimulation(激励)from a trusted person can help us move forward with our lives. If we want to realize our goals and live a 24 life, we need to push ourselves and to test our limits. The phrase, “You can do better” is most valuable when we believe it to be the truth.

It sells products that are normally(通常地)found in a grocery store (杂货店). What you will not find, however, are long lines and cashiers exchanging money.Customers must have a smartphone, an Amazon account, and a program on their smartphones: the Amazon Go app. The app makes a list of everything that customers plan to buy from the store. After customers have finished shopping, they can simply leave.The company has been working on creating the store for four years. Amazon says that because its new store does not require as many employees(员工), the prices of goods will remain low.Amazon Go became a hot topic this week on social media. One person called Mike published(发布)a photograph on Twitter, showing himself waiting in a very long line at a grocery store. He wrote,“I cannot wait for Amazon Go. Longest queue(队伍)in history.”But, it may be some time before Amazon Go stores open up in other areas. Even the Seattle store is still only open to Amazon employees. The company plans to open that store to the public in early 2017.(236 words)( )31. What does this passage mainly talk about ?A. The online marketer Amazon plans to open new stores.B.

They may feel isolated(孤立的)from their friends and classmates. Now, a small robot may help children who are recovering from a long-term illness in the hospital or at home. The robot takes their place at school. Through the robot, the children can hear their teachers and friends. They can also take part in classroom activities from wherever they are recovering – whether at home or from a hospital bed.The robot is called A V1.It is created by a company called “No Isolation”. AV1 goes to school for a child who is at home while recovering from a long-term illness. And the child’s school friends must help. They carry the robot between classes and place the robot on the child’s desk.Dolva, one co-funder (创始人)of No Isolation.explains how the robot A V1 works. She says,“the robot sits at the child's desk in the classroom and the child at home uses a tablet(平板电脑)or a phone to start it, control its movement with touch, and talk through it. So the robot becomes the eyes, the ears and the voice of the child at school.” The robot is equipped with speakers, microphones and cameras that make communicating easy. Moreover,The A VI was designed to be tough. It is water-resistant(防水) and can take a fall from a desk without damage. Inside AV1 is a small computer connected to a 4G network. A V1 is large and looks like a human for a reason. Dolva thinks this is important because the robot is expected to be a friend to the children.The robot just became available to the public. Hopefully A V1 will help some children feel less lonely while they are absent from class.(301 words)( )36. Where can we most probably read this passage?A. In a health reportB. In a science bookC.
