It was made in 1734, in Italy, by Antonio Stradivari. Only about 600 of his violins are believed to still exist. They were regarded as the rarest and best instruments in the world.Roman’s Stradivarius was his musical partner for 38 years. Then bad luck struck; the violin was stolen from his office after a concert while he greeted well-wishers. He was shocked and upset by its loss. “Yes, it’s a bit like losing your arm,” he told his daughter, Jill.It took Roman a year to find and buy a new violin as the size and tones (音质) of each were different from his. He had to learn his musical pieces all over again! Roman kept playing into his 90s and taught at Boston University until he died in 2012, aged 101.His daughter says, “We wondered from time to time if the violin would surface, but... Our mother and father taught us to keep moving forward and not think over what life throws at you.”In 2015, the wife of the man who stole the violin wanted to know if it was really a Stradivarius. She had looked after him when he was dying from cancer and now it belonged to her. She took it to master violin maker and dealer Phillip Injeia. He recognized it immediately and contacted the FBI. Jill, who received the call from FBI, said in an interview, “I said, ‘I have to call my sisters. I’ll tell them not to get their hopes up,’ but Phillip Injeian said, ‘You don’t have to do that. This is the violin.’”Jill said they would sell the violin, not to a collector but someone who would play it. She said it would finally be in the hands of another great artist and its amazing voice would be heard in concert halls around the country.4．Why did Roman feel like he had lost an arm after the violin was stolen?A．It cost him a lot of money.B．It had served as a useful arm.C．It had been his musical partner.D．It was created by a famous maker.5．What is the turning point of this story?A．The FBI got in touch with Jill.B．The Stradivarius was found missing.C．Roman Totenberg died in 2012, aged 101.D．The violin was taken to a master violin maker and dealer.6．Why would the family like the violin to be owned by a violinist?A．They intended to become well-known.B．They wanted to sell it at a higher price.C．They hoped to remember Roman Totenberg.D．They wished to make the most of the Stradivarius.7．Which words can best describe Phillip Injeian?A．Expert and confident.B．Creative and careful.C．Learned and proud.D．Strong-willed and friendly.It’s reported that about 20 percent of the Amazon rainforest has disappeared during thespecies native to the Amazon River area, it’s affecting humans worldwide. When it comes to the protection of the Amazon, it’s hard for many people to relate because they don’t feel connected to the area. There are actually a lot of direct connections, no matter how far away we are.A connection that affects everyone on the planet is climate (气候) change. Planting new trees in the forest is basically a way of removing CO2 from the air. Rain forests have a carbon (碳) reduction nearly equal to half of what is in the air. About half of that is in the Amazon. Another case in point is a big snake called the bushmaster that lives in the Amazon. Today, millions of people use medicines made from its venom (毒液) to treat high blood pressure. So they have longer, fuller, and more productive lives.In the 1960s, there was only one highway in the entire Amazon. That’s an area as large as the continental United States with one highway and three million people. Today, there are between 30 million to 40 million people, countless roads, and about 20 percent forests have been cut down. But on the plus side, 50 years ago there were only two national parks and a national forest and a reserve in Brazil. Today, more than 50 percent of the Amazon is under some form of protection.“There’s been a lot of damage done and forest lost, but nothing is gone until it’s gone”, noted National Geographic explorer Dr. Thomas Lovejoy. “We want to see more shared planning between the departments of transportation, energy, agriculture, and the other industries in the area. We think Amazon cities can have higher quality of life and keep people in existing cities so there’s less reason to deforest.”8．Which can replace the underlined word “Deforestation” in paragraph 1?A．Planting more trees.B．Destroying the forests.C．Protecting the species.D．Polluting the rivers.9．What might the partial loss of the Amazon rainforest lead to?A．The increase of extreme weather.B．The removal of CO2.C．More people with high blood pressure.D．The overgrowth of the bushmaster. 10．How does paragraph 3 mainly develop?A．By making comparisons.B．By listing reasons.C．By explaining a definition.D．By making a summary.11．What is Dr. Thomas’ attitude towards the future of the Amazon rainforest?A．Doubtful.B．Worried.C．Positive.D．Uncaring.While screen time is known to affect sleep, new research suggests that interactive (互动的) activities, such as texting friends or playing video games, put off and reduce the time spent asleep to a greater degree than passive (被动的) screen time like watching television, especially for teens.The team studied the daytime screen-based activities of 475 teenagers using daily surveys. They asked the teens how many hours they had spent that day communicating with friends through social media and how many hours they spent playing video games, surfing the internet and watching television or videos. Finally, the researchers asked if they had joined in any of these activities in the hour before bed.Next, the team measured their sleep time for one week. The researchers found that the teens spent an average of two hours per day communicating with friends via social media, about 1.3 hours playing video games, less than an hour surfing the internet and about 1.7 hours watching television or videos. For every hour throughout the day that they used screens to communicate with friends, they fell asleep about 11 minutes later averagely. For every hour to play video games, they fell asleep about 9 minutes later. Those who talked, texted orplayed games in the hour before bed lost the most sleep: about 30 minutes later.Interestingly, David, lead author of the study, said the team found no obvious relations between passive screen-based activities and sleep. “It could be that passive activities are less mentally exciting than interactive activities,” said Anne, co-author of the study. “It’s a tricky situation,” she said. “These screen tools are really important to everyone nowadays, so it’s hard to put a limit on them, but if you’re really looking out for a teenager’s health and well-being, you might consider limiting the more interactive activities, especially in the hour before bed.”12．Which of the following belongs to interactive screen activities?A．Seeing movies.B．Watching videos.C．Texting friends.D．Surfing the internet.13．Who might lose the most sleep according to the text?A．Lucy who watched a three-hour movie before going to bed.B．Jack who had a 30-minute video chat with his brother before bed.C．Sam who played computer games for two hours throughout the day.D．Amy who chatted with her friends on WeChat for one hour in the morning. 14．What does the underlined word “tricky” mean in paragraph 4?A．Frightening.B．Awkward.C．Hopeless.D．Encouraging. 15．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Screen time activities cut down our sleep hoursB．Interactive screen use reduces sleep time in teenagersC．Passive screen use is better than interactive screen useD．Parents should prevent children from using social mediaReading is a healthy habit that everyone should develop from childhood because of theThe following will discuss the effects of not reading books, so you can basically consider and judge where you are and understand how reading can be beneficial.17 People who don’t read and don’t like to read find it harder to learn than people who actually read. For example, most students who fail to develop a reading habit find it difficult to get through school. This then leads to students dropping out, which is bad for society. Reading is a habit that strengthens the brain and develops your inborn love ofwanting to learn more. Therefore, not being addicted to books closes you off from this.Narrow mindedness. Reading a variety of books broadens the readers’ mind. Most people who don’t read have a certain narrow mindedness to them that can easily be noticed.18 When you don’t read, you’re forced to take everything at face value and then create and shape your views in this way.Low brain power. One advantage of reading is its ability to improve brain function. Reading can help people become better thinkers and use brains more effectively. People who don’t read usually have low brain power because they don’t exercise the brain as much as readers do. 19Poor imagination. Reading books allows you to tap into your imaginative power. 20 This is important because it expands (拓展) your thought process as well as the ability to understand. People who don’t read books usually are short of the inspiration necessary to create imagination. This makes it difficult to be creative.A．Learning difficulty.B．The reason for this is simple.C．Such exercise strengthens the brain.D．Inability to fully understand the world.E．It then makes you picture what you read.F．It is developed slowly just as any habit would.G．The ability to read is important in today’s world.二、完形填空As Hallee gets to the finish line of the 800-metre run for kids, the crowd is cheeringWhen the twins were five, Jada decided that she wanted to be a(n) 27 .

ASimilar holidays are celebrated in many parts of the world. Here are four famous festivals!Carnival(狂欢节)Brazil's most popular and festive holiday is Carnival. In fact，many people consider Carnival as one of the world's biggest celebrations. Each spring,on the Saturday before Ash Wednesday，the streets of Brazil's largest city，Rio de Janeiro，come alive with wild parties，festivals and thrilling balls. And the Samba School Parade is the high light of the four-day event. About 3, 000 performers，wearing colorful costumes with feathers，beads and thousands of gold coins，dance down the parade route. Judges award a prize to the most brilliant group of dancers.Cocuk BayramiEach April 23，Turkey celebrates Cocuk Bayrami，or Children's Day. Turkish leader Mustafa Kemal Ataturk declared the holiday in 1920，as Turkey was becoming an independent nation after the fall of the Ottoman Empire，to symbolize children were the future of the new nation. Children all over Turkey dress up in special costumes or the national costumes for Cocuk Bayrami.Many children perform in plays or musicals.The centerpiece of Cocuk Bayrami takes place in Turkey's capital，Ankara，where children from around the world sing and dance in a spectacular pageant(盛大庆典).Day of the DeadDay of the Dead is celebrated on November 1 in Mexico, Ecuador, Guatemala and other parts of Central and South America. Families gather to pray to the souls of dead relatives, asking them to return for just one night. People decorate altars(祭坛) in their homes and gravesites with food, candles, candy skulls and marigolds to welcome the souls back to earth. Skeletons are displayed throughout cities, and people dressed as skeletons parade through the streets. Day of the Dead sounds like a terrifying event,but it's a time to celebrate and remember the lives of dead family members.Diwali(排灯节)Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, is the best known of Hindu celebrations and certainly the brightest. It is celebrated on New moon day of Kartika, although the celebrations begin two days before that date and end two days after that date.In the darkest skies of autumn, lights brighten homes throughout India--a sign of welcome to the gods Rama and Lakshmi.

During Diwali Festival families gather and celebrate with gifts and feasts for four days.BKatherine Johnson was the most recognized of the African American “human computers", and she was a NASA female mathematician who calculated (计算)trajectories for early space flights--from the 1930s until the 1980s.Born in 1918，in the little town of White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia,Katherine Johnson was simply attracted by numbers. As a child，she counted everything. She counted the steps on the road, the steps up to school, the number of dishes she washed. By the time she was 10 years old, she had been a high school freshman, which was truly amazing in a time when school for African-Americans normally stopped at eighth grade. To realize her math potential, her father drove his family 120 miles to Institute, West Virginia, where blacks could continue high school education. Katherine's excellent performance proved her father's decision was the right one.Teachers allowed Katherine to skip several grades to graduate from high school at 14 and from college at 18，majoring in mathematics, as the top student of the historically black West Virginia State College in Institute.In 1953. after years as a teacher and later as a stay-at-home mom, she began working for NASA, which began hiring women to measure and calculate the results of wind tunnel tests in 1935. In a time before the electronic computers, these women were called“computer" . Even after NASA began using electronic computers, the astronaut John Glenn requested that she should personally recheck the calculations made by the new electronic computers before his flight.She continued to work at NASA until her retirement in 1986. Her calculations proved important to the success of the Apollo lunar landing program and the United States journey into space. Her story was the basis for the 2016 film Hidden Figures.Katherine Johnson, a great mathematician, physicist. space scientist and the last“computer”who wore skirts, passed away on February 24, 2020.4. What can we learn about Katherine from paragraph 2?A. She left school at eighth grade.B. She skipped grades in college.C. She went to high school at 14.D. She was gifted in math as a child.5. How long did Katherine work at NASA?A. For 18 years.B. For 33 years.C. For 51 years.D. For 67 years.6. Why was Katherine called “computer" in NASA?A. She played the role of a computer.B. She calculated as fast as computers.C. She was in charge of the computers.D. She was skilled in operating computers.7. What's the best title for the text?A. Female scientists at NASAB. A great female mathematician's decisionC. Katherine Johnson, a computer who wore skirtsD. Katherine Johnson's great educational backgroundCMany people confuse hard-working people with workaholics(工作狂). How could a person tell that he/she is a workaholic? A workaholic works long hours, at the expense of personal relationships and health. When not working, they' re thinking about work.Work influences their mood; When work is going well, they're up; when work is going less well, they're down.Working, or simply being busy, can be a hard habit to break. When workaholics aren't busy working- or doing something to promote their work- they feel anxious and guilty. They hang onto jobs for dear life and do everything they can to make sure they're essential.There is a link between health problems and workaholism. Just because work itself is a respectable pursuit doesn't mean that an addiction to it is any less damaging than other sorts of addictions. A number of studies show that workaholism has been associated with a wide range of health problems, such as anxiety and heart disease.Besides health problems, being a workaholic brings other negative effects as well. A study published in the American Journal of Family Therapy found that working too much negatively influenced an employee's marriage. This isn't surprising, since if you're married to your work it can be difficult to be married to anything or anyone else.There have also been studies looking at the influence of workaholic parents on their children and the news isn't good. Adult children of workaholic fathers experienced more depression and anxiety and a weaker sense of self.However, there are also many positive aspects to working hard and to an increasing devotion to career. Hard work can bring great rewards. For many, it's how they develop feelings of self-worth, confidence and purpose. If you have a workaholic in your life you might point out the things he or she is missing out on while at work,whether it's a child's soccer game, a good book, or a yoga class. Seek to understand why the person feels the need to work so much and support them in finding a solution.8. What can we infer about workaholics?A. They usually have life outside work.B. They win respect from their workmates.C. They often get pleasure from work.D. They put work in the first place.9. What are paragraphs 3—4 mainly about?A. Bad influences of workaholism.B. Reasons for being workaholics.C. How people deal with their addictions.D. How hard- working people differ from workaholics.10. What can we do to help workaholics in life?A. Force them to join family activities.B. Reward them for their hard work.C. Help them find self- worth and confidence.D. Try to understand and support them.11. What is the author's attitude towards working hard?A. Doubtful.B. Objective.C. Negative.D. Curious.DThere is more that comes with older age than greying hair and wrinkled skin.When humans reach their later years, they favour more established friends and their social circles are reduced.Now, for what appears to be the first time, scientists have seen the same behaviour in another species. Twenty years of observations of chimpanzees (黑猩猩) reveal that older males choose to hang out with their long-term friends at the. expense of other relationships.The researchers studied 78,000 hours of observations made between 1996 and 2016 that followed the social interactions of 21 male chimpanzees between the ages of 15 and 58 years old. They classified the chimps' relationships depending on the amount of time they sat with others and groomed(梳毛) them. They then rated the various pairings as mutual(相互的) friendships, where both chimps seemed to enjoy the relationship; one-sided friendships, where one chimp was more keen to be a friend than the other; and non-friendships, where neither chimp showed interest in the other.When the scientists looked at the patterns of friendships, they found that the older chimps had more mutual friendships and fewer one-sided friendships than younger chimps. Another feature seen in older humans was also spotted in the chimps. As the males got older, their levels of aggression(挑衅) tailed off, meaning they started fewer and tended to intimidate others in their group less often.The observations have left the researchers puzzled.According to an idea in psychology known as socioemotional selectivity theory, or SST, older humans prefer more positive relationships because they are aware time is running out. But many animal experts argue that chimpanzees lack the human sense of mortality(生命的有限性)，suggesting something else is driving the behaviour.Robin Dunbar, a professor of evolutionary psychology at the University of Oxford. said in humans, the decline in social circles with age is due to the declining social motivation to get out and meet people combined with lack of opportunity. In chimpanzees, as older males compete less for mates, they may focus on close reciprocal(互惠的) relationships with trusted partners, Robin said.12. What do older male chimpanzees favour?A. Greying hair.B. New bonds.C. Old friendships.D. Wrinkled skin.13. How did the researchers draw their conclusion about chimpanzees?A. By turning to other scientists.B. By introducing a new concept.C.

陕西省榆林市2023-2024学年高一上学期1月期末英语试题
陕西省榆林市2023-2024学年高一上学期1月期末英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Several Musts for the New TermWith a new university term looking for either returning or new students, here are some musts to consider for the school year ahead.Storage bag with handlesWhether you’re a freshman or returning for a new year, you have to move to your university. This is where moving boxes come in, but if you’d rather not be troubled by luggage, these storage bags are a nice choice. They have strong handles and keep water out.Led alarm clockMake sure you wake up on time for all of your lectures with this LED alarm clock. It’s also multi-functional, doubling up as a mirror that you can use through the day. It has one USB port, as well as a wall hook and a stand for keeping it upright.Trouser hangerWe’ve all been there, not having quite enough room for your clothes and wondering how you can magically fit more clothes into the same space. In University the problem is worse, but this simple hanger set can conveniently hold jeans, trousers, skirts and more, helping to ease this common problem.Mini humidifier(增湿器)Humidifiers don’t often get talked about too much in terms of things that would be good to have in a bedroom, but there are benefits to having them. They make the room air properly wet to aid with dry skin, nose and throat issues and improve sleep.View it at Amazon●If you show interest in the goods above, you can click the link to know more about them.1．The alarm clock can also be used to________.A．make up B．watch videos C．monitor health D．make calls 2．Which is helpful for improving sleep?A．The alarm clock.B．The trouser hanger.3．Where can we probably read the passage?A．In a sports magazine.B．In a chemical paper.C．On a website.D．In a textbook.Do you like travelling? No matter travelling alone, with friends, or with a tour group, they all have advantages and disadvantages.The best thing about travelling alone is that you can do what you want to do. No waiting around in places you aren’t interested in, no missing a bus because your friend was late. Your experience will be greatly improved by travelling alone. The main worry is loneliness, but believe me, it’s not difficult to talk to and meet people. Just remember everyone is on the same boat; everyone wants to meet new people, have fun and be friendly! There’s a problem of safety in some countries, especially for women travelling alone. You should always check the foreign office of your country for advice on safety. Buying a personal alarm is a good idea for women travelling alone.Travelling with a friend does sound nice, but it depends on how well you get on: If you have similar interests or travel ideas, it should be wonderful. You will find it much cheaper to cook food in developed countries and share a room. However, a lot of people I meet travelling together don’t seem to be having as much fun and often go their separate ways.Tours are great when they go well. Some of my best memories have been with tour groups. The key there is when they go well. A terrible tour guide, quiet group and terrible food can ruin our time. My advice would be never to do a tour that is too long especially in countries with safety problems or poor transport.All in all, travelling alone is the best, but it is good to mix it up. Invite a friend from home to meet you for a few weeks. Try a tour or two—some people love them—perhaps start with a day tour.4．How many ways of travelling are mentioned in the passage?A．Two.B．Three.C．Four.D．Five. 5．Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A．Other travellers have to learn boating with you.B．Other travellers will help you make a boat.C．Other travellers have similar feelings to yours.6．What’s the author’s suggestion on travelling with friends?A．Don’t be late for the tour bus.B．Always listen to others’ travel ideas.C．Cook food when travelling in developing countries.D．Choose those who have common interests with you.7．Which of the following may the author agree with?A．We can try different ways of travelling.B．Travelling with friends is more interesting than with a tour.C．It is not necessary to get an alarm when travelling alone.D．A terrible tour guide won’t affect the trip much.You can study the English language for years and still not understand a native speaker of English when you meet one. Many language leaners know that native speakers say a lot of things that you can’t find in a dictionary. Well, here’s a secret for you: A lot of British people can’t understand each other either!Across the UK, a number of regions have different dialects—that is, they have their own unique vocabulary and grammatical phrases. There are many different accents in London, because it is not just where a person is born in the UK that decides their accent. Language and accents also vary across social class and level of education. Hence the recent rise of a new accent coined at the end of the 20th century—“Multicultural London English”.Other factors are also important in the invention of new accents and ways of speaking. These include the influence of people from different ethnic backgrounds and different age groups, too.“Yoof culture” is an example. The word “yoof” is a slang spelling of “youth”. Young people are creating their own language, concepts and identity. By using words that their parents don’t understand, children can talk about things that their parents might not approve of. For example, instead of saying something like “That’s good!” or “I understand”, yoof will use a single adjective like “Safe!”, or “Sorted!” Besides, Yoof would use “kind-a-thing,” or “sort-a-thing” to replace “if you understand what I’m saying”. In this way, they are starting to find freedom, independence and self-expression.As learners of English, we may wonder how well we can talk to a native speaker, butshows that 94 percent of the English spoken in the world today is spoken among non-native speakers of the language. In fact, when we think about “international English”, there is no such thing as a native or non-native speaker. The UK no longer owns the English language. 8．What’s the function of Paragraph 1?A．To share a story.B．To make a comparision.C．To show the author’s experience.D．To introduce the topic.9．Which of the following statements about “Multicultural London English” is TRUE?A．It’s now spoken by people around the world.B．It was invented by Londoners in the 1900s.C．It’s a modern accent that crosses educational divides.D．It’s a dialect specific to a particular social class.10．What does “Sorted!” mean in “yoof culture”?A．Watch out.B．I see.C．My pleasure.D．Hurry up. 11．What does the author want to tell us?A．Don’t worry if you cannot understand native speakers.B．Learning English well is very easy.C．Languages are always changing.D．It is important to communicate with a native speaker.Wood stork, which was on the brink of extinction in 1984, has recovered enough in Florida and other Southern states. The American wildlife officials proposed removing the waterfowl (水禽) from the endangered species list.This symbolic species, which is the only stork native to North America, has rebounded (反弹) because dedicated partners in the southeast have worked tirelessly to restore ecosystems that support it. In addition, the wood stork has increased its range in coastal areas. The birds have adapted to new nesting areas, tripling the number of colonies across their range from 29 to 99 in recent years.Credit goes mainly to the wildlife protections provided by the Endangered Species Act(ESA), which can impose restrictions on a variety of activities in areas where such species are, located, such as development, mining and oil drilling. The act saved the wood stork and it helped; preserve and rebuild vital habitats throughout the southeast, which has improvedSpecies Act has saved 99% of the species that have been on the list since 1973, with 100 types of plants and animals delisted because they have recovered or are at least stable.The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said that restoration of the wood stork’s habitat, especially in the Florida Everglades and adjacent Big Cypress National Preserve, led to a, sharp increase in breeding pairs. Those numbers had shrunk to just 5,000 pairs in 1984, whereas there are more than 10,000 pairs today.“The proposed delisting of the wood stork is a significant milestone and a remarkable, achievement of the hard work by federal agencies, state and local governments, tribes, conservation organizations, and private citizens in protecting and restoring our most at-risk species,” Interior Secretary Deb Haaland said.If the wood stork is delisted, officials said it would remain protected by other laws including the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Clean Water Act. A monitoring plan, would be put in place for at least five years to ensure the stork population remains stable. 12．What can be inferred about the wood stork from the text?A．Its population is increasing.B．It has already died out.C．It is widely distributed worldwide.D．It is the most endangered species. 13．What contribute mostly to recovering the population of the wood stork?A．Charity organizations.B．Federal agencies.C．Protections of the ESA．D．Local companies.14．What is Deb Haaland’s attitude to the delisting of the wood stork?A．Negative.B．Doubtful.C．Indifferent.D．Positive. 15．What is the best title of the text?A．Effect of the Big Cypress National Preserve CountsB．Saving of the Endangered Wood Stork ProgressesC．Efforts to Restore the Wildlife Habitat Pay OffD．Protection of American Native Species WorksThe unpredictable nature of disasters is stressful. That’s why having an action plan in place is so important. 16HurricaneWhen a hurricane is approaching, people in its direct path are often all heading in themake plans to go with friends or family. What’s more, it’s very important to pay attention to all government warnings before and during a hurricane.Winter stormsAccording to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, winter storms create a higher risk of car accidents and several health conditions such as heart disease. 18 Besides, remember to dress warmly, prepare for power outages(断供期), and keep an eye out for signs of serious health conditions. 19 Cover as much skin as you can with hats, warm socks, gloves, etc.Flood20 Try to bring some water and food with you. If you live in a one-story home, put mattresses(床垫)on top of a dining room table for extra height in case water rushes inside. But be careful about going inside an attic(阁楼). You may find that you don’t have a way back out.A．It means the traffic on the way out can be extreme.B．Here’s what you should do in specific types of disasters.C．To help minimize your risk, you’re advised to stay indoors.D．If you have to risk going out, remember to stay warm.E．During a flood, it’s best to go to a high floor, ideally near a window.F．You can see if your home has a high flood risk through the flood maps.G．It’s important to ensure that all family members know the plan inside and out.二、完形填空Hardly had I finished my work and left my office building at 9 p. m. on a Saturday whencar making his voice 28 .“Yes, I am.

Here are a few great destinations in the United States for bird watching lovers to visit.Hakalau Forest, HawaiiThis beautiful Hawaiian forest on the Manua Kea on the Big Island is a good destination to see some of Hawaii’s unique b irds.

It was this love that led him to establish India’s first shelter home for dogs living with disabilities.It all started in 1998. While taking a midnight walk, Mahendra came across a very weak dog on the street, whose bones were visible under its skin. Mahendra decided to feed it and for the next couple of days it became the centre of his life, until the night when he found it dead.After that, Mahendra started providing treatment to all wounded and sick dogs he came across. Some time later, someone told Mahendra about PFA, India’s largest animal welfare organization, chaired by Mrs Maneka Gandhi. Mahendra contacted her and she was impressed by the work he was doing. Mrs Gandhi asked him to start a PFA chapter in Ahmedbad.Thus, in 2004, he started the shelter. It took a long time for Mehendra to find the land where the shelter could be set up. Finally, Ramesh Bhai Patel, a native farmer from a village named Jundal, agreed to give his land for nothing. Along with a team of four doctors and many volunteers, the shelter now has 25 dogs that were unable to walk at all when they were brought in. Today, they’re slowly healing. Dogs that have healed with proper treatment are sent back to where they came from if the environment there is safe. However, the shelter will be home to the blind dogs for all their lives, says Mahendra.The shelter runs on money coming from Mahendra’s own pension of Rs. 45,000.There have been some financial crunches now and then, but Mahendra has made up his mind that no matter what challenge comes their way, they’ll fight through.19．What made Mahendra decide to do something for disabled and sick dogs? A．His contact with PFA．B．The encouragement of Gandhi. C．A walk with a sick dog of Gandhi. D．The death of a homeless sick dog.20．What happened to Mahendra when he tried to build the shelter?He secured government funds.He got a land from a local farmer for free.He learned medical knowledge from doctors.He met with much difficulty in finding volunteers.21．What does the underlined word “crunches” in the last paragraph probably mean?A．Advantages. B．Crisis.C．Services. D．Details.22．Which of the following words can best describe Mahendra?A．Kind-hearted. B．Humorous.C．Open-minded. D．Modest.18.（8分）C“Italians don’t get fat” is a popular saying used to describe Italian food and lifestyle. Italians are famously devoted to their great food, yet their obesity rate is really low compared with other countries.Many studies have found that an Italian diet has numerous health benefits, from reducing therisk of cancer and heart disease to living a healthier, longer life. However, something must be getting lost in translation. Many Italian foods are everything but healthy.On a recent trip to my homeland, Italy, I decided to see for myself why the Italians don't get fat. My trips tarted where my family lives, in the northern Italy, and ended 15 days later on the Amalfi coast.It quickly became very clear that the Italians know how to really enjoy the experience of eating. They socialize and relax while dining over dinner. Before and after dinner, most people in Italy walk through town, called passeggiata. People walk together, talking and keeping alive a valued tradition.Many people in Italy aren’t regardful about calories because they usually stop eating when they are full. Italians, also lead active lifestyle, with lots of bike riding or walking, mostly in urban areas. Moreover, they usually satisfy a sweet tooth with fruits instead of sweet desserts. Italians simply balance the quality and quantity of foods. People in Italy enjoy the fat, but they don't overdo it.What I personally like the most is that the kitchen secrets are passed along from generation to generation, little children can always be found in the kitchen with their moms ——learning from them.Italians learn to eat well and just enjoy something sweet on occasion. How right they are! Because when people go on diets, they usually get depressed and gain even more weight. An Italian mealtime should be a relaxed occasion enjoyed in the great company of family or friends.Cooking at home and avoiding restaurant food are some of the reasons why Italians don’t get fat. So, always choose homemade food and try to be active after eating. If you don’t have time or don’t want to leave the house, there are many healthy exercises that you can do at home. 23．What does the author say about Italian food?A．It is healthy.B．It contains high fat.C．It helps people lose weight.D．It lowers the risks of various diseases.24．Why did the author go back home?She missed her family.She wanted to have a rest.She planned to travel in her hometown.She decided to find the secret of Italian diets.25．What does the underlined word “regardful”in Paragraph 5 mean?A．Concerned.B．Satisfied.C．Doubtful.D．Frightened.26．Why do Italians never get fat?A．They seldom eat out.B．They don’t have a sweet tooth.C．They avoid taking a passeggiata.D．They don’t like to eat the fat..19.（8分）DOrganic food is very popular. It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as nonorganic food. Some parents and pet owners pay up to 200 percent more for organic food while some people think organic food is a waste of money.There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides (杀虫剂). This makes sure that the products are natural.Some people think “organic” means “locally grown”. At the beginning, this was true. Over time organic farming became more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small companies had to sell out to large companies. There weren’t enough organic materials. This made it difficult for many organic companies to stay in business. Today, many largecompanies have an organic line of products.Is organic food more nutritious ? This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumers believe it is.
