Life is like a road on which you never get a chance to return, and is not a very long road either. So we should try to live life to the fullest and enjoy every bit of it.Every individual has unique likings and preferences, and all of us try to live the lives that suit us best. The world is like a painting cloth on which different people with different races, different languages, and different cultural backgrounds interact. But among these, the arts provide an easy and natural way for people to connect.People with a knack for the arts usually discover it in childhood. But art isn't only for the talented; it can help everyone grow. Those with a strong artistic background are often more energetic, and more successful in all fields of life. Art widens the range of a person's life.Painting is one of the most popular art forms. Those who are interested in taking it up as a career need to go through extensive training to get familiar with the various styles. Professional painters often host art exhibitions, with art lovers from all over the world coming to see and buy their creations. Sometimes the paintings are sold at high prices.Performing arts are equally popular and admired. Dance, instrumental music, drama and so on require unusual artistic talent as well as a long period of education and training before audiences start to applaud the performances. But anyone withsome artistic sense can make art part of his/ her life, and benefit from it.〔1〕People should make the most of life because ______ .A. life is difficult but enjoyable timeB. life is valuable and ordinaryC. life is too short to be wastedD. life is like a road full of tomorrows〔2〕What's the main idea of Paragraph 2?A.

How great artists make a living by selling their works.B. How to live a unique and colorful life.C. How the arts contribute to people's lives.D. How much performing arts have to do with talent and education.4.阅读理解Much older than the Great Wall, Stonehenge is one of the world's most fascinating (迷人的), but least understood historical sites (遗址). Every year, thousands of tourists come to admire Stonehenge's beauty and to wonder about how and why it was built.Stonehenge was produced by a culture that left no written records. Though there are many guesses, it is still a mystery why stone-age man moved such heavy stones over 380 kilometers from where they were made.At that time, people had only basic wooden tools. To move the stones they probably used tree trunks (树干) to roll them along.Some historians believe that Stonehenge was a temple, the site of ancient sacrifice(祭祀). Others believe it was perhaps a giant sundial (日冕) to tell the time. Stonehenge could have been a burial ground(墓地) from its earliest beginnings, because human bone dating from as early as 3000 BC was found there. Whatever its ancient use was, the stones have always been a source of fascination for British people. One record from 1135 said the great stones were carried to England by giant magical creatures!In modern times Stonehenge has become a huge hit with tourists. When Stonehenge was first opened to the public it was possible to walk among and even climb on the stones, but the stones were circled with ropes in 1977 as a result of serious erosion(侵蚀). Visitors are no longer allowed to touch the stones, but are able to walk around from a short distance away. What's more, visitors can make specialbookings to get into the stones throughout the year.〔1〕The Great Wall is mentioned in Paragraph1 in order to _________.A. show Stonehenge has a long historyB. show it hasa long historyC. attract people to visitit D.attract people to visit Stonehenge〔2〕Which of the following about Stonehenge is not mentioned in the passage?A. The ticket price for visitingit. B. The reason why itwas built.C. The way it wasbuilt.D. The use of it.〔3〕When probably was the Stonehenge built according to the text?A. In the year 1135.B. In the year1977. C. Around 3000 B D. Over 380 yearsago.〔4〕Why visitors are forbidden to get close to the Stonehenge now?A. Because visitors need to book to get into the stones.B. Because the Stonehenge is now a huge temple.C. Because too many visitors climb on the stones.D. Because the Stonehenge needs to be protected.二、任务型阅读〔本大题一一共5小题,一共10分〕5.任务型阅读A good night's sleep is one of the best things for your health. The following steps might help you enjoy a good sleep.Create a nightly routine(惯例).________ It could be as simple as washing your face or brushing your teeth. As you begin to move into your "nightly routine", your mind will know that it's time to sleep.Learn your body clock.Some experts believe sleepiness comes in cycles(周期性地). If you know the cycles in your body clock, you can use them to your advantage. ________If not, it might be a long time before you're ready for sleep again.________Put your clock under your bed or on the bottom shelf of your bedside cabinet(床头柜), where its light won't disturb(干扰)you. That way, if you wake up in the middle of the night, or have problems in sleeping, you won't worry about how late it is and how much sleep you're missing.Paint your bedroom a relaxing colorFirst, take any unnecessary things away from your bedroom--- they stand in the way of a good night's sleep.________ It's a reminder of sleep.Choose the right pillowOne study found that neck pillows can actually improve the quality of yoursleep as well as reduce neck pain. ________It should provide neck support and be washable.A.

Without such problems, animals in zoos should live to a ripe old age. But that may not be true for the largest land animals on earth. Scientists have known that elephants in zoos often suffer from poor health. They develop diseases, joint problems and behavior changes. Sometimes, they even become infertile.To learn more about how captivity affects elephants, a team of international scientists compared the life spans of female elephants born in zoos with those living outdoors in their native habitats. Zoos keep detailed records of all the animals in their care, documenting factors such as birth dates, illnesses, weight and death. These records made it possible for the researchers to analyze 40 years of data on 800 African and Asian elephants in zoos across Europe, North America and Asia.The scientists found that female elephants born in zoos lived an average of 16.9years. Their wild counterparts who died of natural causes lived an average of 56 years - more than three times as long.Scientists don't yet know why wild elephants seem to fare so much better than their zoo - raised counterparts. Georgia Mason, a biologist at the University of Guelph in Canada who led the study, thinks that stress and obesity may be to blame. Zoo elephants don't get the same kind of exercise they would in the wild, and most are fed a diet of corn instead of their natural vegetation.Another finding from the study showed that Asian elephants born in zoos were more likely to die early than African elephants born in zoos. Mason suggests that different species may react differently to the stress of captivity.1. What does the underlined word "ripe" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Smooth.B. Mature.C. Disease - free.D. Early.2. What do the scientists find in their study?A. Female elephants live longer than male elephants.B. Zoo - raised elephants live as long as their wild counterparts.C. Female elephants born in zoos have a shorter life span.D. Elephants are less healthy in zoos due to lack of exercise.3. What are the possible reasons for the zoo - raised elephants' poor healthaccording to Mason?A. Stress and obesity.B. Eating too much corn.C. Lack of exercise and different species.D. All of the above.4. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Elephants in ZoosB. Health of Zoo - raised ElephantsC. Comparison between Zoo - raised and Wild ElephantsD. Longer Life for Wild ElephantsIf you are a high school student, you may be under a lot of stress. Here are some tips to help you manage your stress.First, make a schedule. A schedule can help you organize your time and tasks. Write down all the things you need to do, such as homework, studying for tests, and extracurricular activities. Then, prioritize your tasks. Decide which tasks are most important and need to be done first. This will help you focus on the most important things and not get distracted by unimportant tasks.Second, get enough sleep.

It can also improve your mood and energy levels. You can choose the type of exercise that you like, such as running, swimming, or dancing. Try to exercise at least three times a week for 30 minutes or more.Fourth, take breaks. It's important to take breaks when you are studying or doing homework. Take a 10 - 15 minute break every hour or so. During your break, you can do something relaxing, such as listening to music, reading a book, or talking to a friend.Finally, talk to someone. If you are feeling stressed, don't keep it to yourself. Talk to your parents, teachers, or friends. They can give you advice and support.5.

But as the flight neared its end, it became obvious that something was very wrong.A teenage boy with Down Syndrome (唐氏综合症) who was traveling with his family had become upset and would not return to his seat, regardless of the cabin crew’s warnings over the loudspeaker that it was almost time to land. The pilot was forced to circle above the airport, delaying the landing and angering people on the alreadytense flight.“If it was a cartoon,〞remembered Watson, “there would have been smoke coming out of people’s ears.〞The boy’s el derly parents and adult brothers and sisters tried to persuade him to get off the floor and back into his seat, but in vain.Watson, who used to be a teacher, stood up and quickly headed to the back of the plane.She found the boy in the passage between rows of seats, lying on his belly, and lay down on her stomach to face him. She began chatting calmly with him, asking his name, his favorite book, and his favorite characters. He told her he felt sick and she tried to comfort him.Minutes later, he allowed her to hold his hand, and then together they got properly back into airplane seats. Watson asked for sick bags, and held them as the boy threw up several times, including on her. As she helped him clean up, she repeatedly told him everything would be okay a nd that they’d get through it together.After the plane was finally able to land, no one was impatient to step off the flight as one might expect. Instead, calmed passengers—obviously following Watson’s amazing example—allowed the boy and his family to depart first, smiling at them as they passed. His parents tearfully thanked Watson for what she had done, and a doctor sitting nearby also let her know he had even taken notes on her expert way of handling the situation.5. The landing was delayed because _____.A. the plane was out of controlB. the pilot was forced to change the destinationC. a family ignored the warningsD. a boy refused to sit in his seat6. Watson successfully handled the “awful tension〞 by _____.A. fighting against unfair treatmentB. calling on other passengers to join herC. asking an experienced doctor to helpD. communicating with the boy7. What changed the angry passengers’ attitude at last?A. Watson’s efforts.B. The plane’s safe landing.C. The crew’s behavior.D. The boy’s improvement.8. Which of the following words can best describe Watson?A. Patient and ambitious.B. Kind and cool-headed.C. Wise and cooperative.D. Generous and cautious.CAs computers become more popular in China, Chinese people are more and more depending on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters(汉字). But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes(笔画) of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more widely spread among university students. Almost all their homework and essays are typed on a computer.All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.It’s faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that’s why computers are being used more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear.“When I’m writing with a pen, I find I often can’t remember how to write a character, though I feel I’m familiar with it.〞“I’m not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.〞Many students don’t feel this is something to worry about. Now that it’s more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said, “Chinese characters enjoy both p ractical and aesthetic (审美的)value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only keep their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer’s feelings. Through one’s handwriting, people can get to know one’s thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.〞To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory〔必修的〕and in universities, some professors areasking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.9.The underlined expression “taking stock in〞 in paragraph 4 probably means.A. becoming crazy aboutB. getting bored withC. getting dependent onD. getting curious about10.The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because ___________.A. computers have become a trend and fashion in ChinaB. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essaysC. they find it not easy to remember how to write a characterD. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently 11.Which of the following statement is NOT true of the advantage of handwriting?A. Handwriting contains the writer’s feelings.B. Handwri ting can impress people well and build one’s self-confidence.C. Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.D. The writer’s thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting 12.Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. The Importance of Handwriting and Typing.B. Writing by Computer Will Replace Writing by Hand.C. To Type or to Handwrite.D. Practical and Aesthetic Value of Chinese Characters.DThe loud noise of the cars or the sound of a plane can force its way into the deepest forest, yet it’s not only humans that are bothered by the noise.Bioacoustician Bernie Krause has been studying the effect of noise pollution on wildlife, and has come across some interesting behaviors, especially among animals that communicate by sound, like humans. Birds use sound to communicate, but in noisy places, these animals have to shout over the natural noise to be heard.Krause mentions a study of nightingales(夜莺) to explain what he means. The birds responded to〔回应〕 traffic noise by singing louder and louder until they actually went beyond noise pollution standards in the city. To belt out (sing loudly) their songs, they increased their lung pressure fivefold, but scientists say that this is not dangerous for the birds themselves.Studies show that sudden noise can cause certain birds to leave their nests, leaving the young to their enemies. One study also showed that songbirds that nested close to busy motorways were much less productive than those that nested farther away. Mammals〔哺乳动物〕too are affected(影响). A recent study showed that nursing caribou 〔驯鹿〕 responded to plane noise by not producing enough milk to feed their young.In some cases noise pollution can actually help some animals while harming others. Toads〔蟾蜍〕and frogs are known to sing in union〔同步发声〕so that no predator (their enemies) can catch them. Krause found that when planes flew overhead and disturbed the toad’s song, they lost their union, and it took them 45 minutes to get it back again. That gave their natural enemies plenty of time to find and catch individual toads by sound.According to Kruse, “Not only will noise pollution bother wildlife, but it won’t help our lives either.〞13. How do young caribou suffer from aircraft noise?A. .They can’t hear their mothers.B. They can’t sleep at night.C. They are often displaced.D. They receive less food.14. What would happen if toads and frogs failed to sing in union?A. They would soon regain their rhythm.B. They would stop communicating.C. They might not be able to protect themselves.D. They might ne unable to hunt in groups.15. What is the text mainly about?A.The ways animals communicate with each other.B. The causes of noise pollution.C. Animals’ reaction to noises.D. The effects of noise pollution on wildlife.第二节〔一共5小题:每一小题2分,满分是10分〕根据短文内容,从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

Last August we decided to spend the day in the country. The only difficulty was that millions of other people had the same idea. We moved out of the city slowly behind a long line of cars, but at last we came to a quiet country road and, after some time, stopped at a lonely farm. We had brought plenty of food with us and we got it out of the car. Now everything was ready, so we sat down near a path (小路) at the foot of a hill. It was very peaceful in the cool grass –until we heard bells ringing at the top of the hill. What we saw made us pick up our things and run back to the car as quickly as possible.

Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched with mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop. She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, “Very dirty floors.〞“Yes, I’m glad they’ve finally decided to clean them,〞 the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said, “But aren’t you working late?〞Mum just pushed harder, each swipe (拖一下) of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to write in the big book.After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum bowed politely to the nurse and said, “Thank you.〞Outside, Mum told me: “Linda is fine.

Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident.I really didn’t know who she was but I had to go.It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn’t know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed that Milly had died. “She meant more to me than anyone – even my own wife! He said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal (丑闻). I was even more surprised when he told me he had put her in the barn (厩). “I wouldn’t leave her out in the cold!〞he said. Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground.〞“She was such a good cow!

The Rosses took a 2 –week course for $ 280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died.

Can she come over tomorrow?” Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.“Sure, honey, that sounds great.” I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile.In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. “I’ll be back soon.” she told me. But three days later, Lillian’s sister told me that she had falleninto a river and hadn’t come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.The next day Donna brought her new friend home. “Hi, Mrs. Loggia.” the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she shot me a big smile. “My name is Laura.”My daughter’s new friend wa s so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled when Laura’s mom came to pick her up later that afternoon.

How can you help yourself learn a new language, such as English? There are several ways to make learning English a little easier and more interesting.The first step is to feel positive about learning English. If you believe that you can learn, you will learn. Be patient. You do not have to understand everything all at once. It is natural to make mistakes when you learn something new. We can learn from our mistakes. In other words, do not worry about taking risks.The second step is to practice your English. For example, write a diary every day. You will get used to writing it in English, and you will feel comfortable expressing your ideas in English. Several weeks later, you will see that your writing is improving. In addition, you must speak English every day. You can practice with your classmates outside class. You will all make mistakes, but gradually you will become comfortable communicating in English.The third step is to keep a record of your language learning. You can write this in your journal. After each class, think about what you did. Did you answer a question correctly? Did you understand something the teacher explained?Perhaps the lesson was difficult, but you tried to understand it.You must be positive about learning English and believe that you can do it. It is important to practice every day and make a record of your achievements. You will enjoy learning English, and you will feel more confident in yourself.(1)To feel positive about learning English means _________.A . if you believe you can learn, you will learnB . you can understand everything all at onceC . if you make mistakes, you can learn from your mistakesD . if you are patient, you will learn(2)When you learn English, you do not need to _________.A . be patientB . make mistakesC . understand everything all at onceD . express your ideas in English(3)What is NOT helpful for you to enjoy learning English?A .

Here is some advice on how to make your once-in-a-lifetime journey and how to stay safe when you get there.Before you begin to look at places, activities and plane tickets, you must set a budget. When you search through the websites about travelling, it can be so easy to add another week here or there, or choose an extra activity. Setting a budget can avoid(避免)creating a huge bill, which starts very small.With so many countries on this planet, it is difficult to decide where to go. By narrowing down your search to voluntary work or a relaxing holiday, you can save a lot of time looking through websites.After deciding where to go, you need to research the country. Find out when each season is. It would be disappointing if you were taking part in an outdoor-based activity and it rained most days. Look into medical information, as you may need certain medicine for certain countries. Above all, make sure you can afford to go to this country and take part in the activities you have dreamt about. Don’t raise your hopes too high before you know for certain it is within your budget.By carrying a credit card with you at all times, it is possible to stop yourself getting lost. Mobile phones are very important as well. However, do not depend completely on them, since electronic machines can break without warning. Therefore, always carry a list of emergency phone numbers, names and addresses. Finally, learn a little of the language. Do not expect that thepeople there speak your own language. After all, you are in their country.(1)What is the best title for the passage?A . Take a Relaxing TripB . Save up to Travel AloneC . Create a Pleasant TripD . Prepare for Travelling Alone(2)From the text, we can know that ________.A . travelling in a foreign country costs a lotB . deciding on where to go is an easy jobC . a volunteer can help you choose where to goD . you need to know what the weather of the county you’ll travel is like(3)What does the word “budget” in Paragraph 2 mean?A . 记录B . 生意C . 预算D . 决定(4)According to the passage, which of the following is true?A . You needn’t research the country you’ll travel before setting off.B . Making a budget is important when making a travel plan.C . It is funny to take medicines when travelling.D . Bad weather can never influence your trip.(5)The last paragraph mainly tells us ________.A . reasons why mobile phones aren’t reliableB . ways to stay safe when travelling aloneC . the importance of carrying a credit cardD . the advantages of learning a foreign language20. 阅读理解One of the best-loved American writers was William Sydney Porter, or O. Henry. From 1893 he lived with his family in a house in Austin, Texas, which is now a museum. Visitors to Austin can see the house. It was saved from destruction and turned into a museum in1934. The museum is a good way tolearn about the interesting life of the American writer.William Porter rented this house in Austin and lived there with his wife Athol and daughter Margaret for about two years. Many objects in the museum came from the Porters. Others did not. An important piece in the room is the original photo over here. It was taken there in the house about 1895. The piano there goes back to the 1860s. His wife took lessons on it when she first moved to Austin.Porter wasn’t a successful wr iter in the beginning. He worked at a farm, land office and bank. He also loved words and writing. The museum has a special proof of Porter’s love of language --- his dictionary. It is said that he had read every word in that dictionary.Later William Porter was forced to leave Austin because he was charged with wrongdoing at the bank and lost his job. Because he was afraid of a trial , he left the country secretly. But he returned because his wife was dying.
