They found their amazement that modern forest and savanna elephants are as distinct from each other as Asian elephants and mammoths.The scientists used detailed genetic analysis to prove that the African savanna elephant and the African forest elephant have been distinct species for several million years. The_divergence of the two species took place around the time of the divergence of Asian elephants and woolly mammoths. This result amazed all the scientists.There has long been debate in the scientific community that the two might be separate species, but this is the most convincing scientific evidence so far that they are indeed different species.Previously, many naturalists believed that African savanna elephants and African forest elephants were twopopulations of the same species, despite the elephants' significant size differences. The savanna elephant has an average shoulder height of 3.5 metres while the forest elephant has an average shoulder double the weight of the forest elephant. But the fact that they look so different does not necessarily mean they are different species. However,the proof lay in the analysis of the DNA.Alfried Roca, assistant professor in the Department of Animal Sciences at the University of Illinois, said, “We now have to treat the forest and savanna elephants as two difficult units for conservation purpose. Since 1950, all African elephants have been conserved as one species. Now that we know the forest and savanna elephants have been distinct animals, the forest elephant should become a bigger priority(优先)for conservation purposes.”36.One of the fossils studied by the researchers is that of ________.A.the Asian elephantB.the forest elephantC.the savanna elephantD.the mastodon elephant37.The underlined word “divergence” in Paragraph 4 means“________”.A.evolution B.exhibitionC.separation D.examination38.The researchers' conclusion was based on a study of the African elephant's________.A.DNA B.heightC.weight D.population39.What are Alfred Roca's words mainly about?A.The conservation of African elephant.B.The purpose of studying African elephant.C.The way to divide African elephants into two units.D.The reason for the distinction of African elephants.40.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.Naturalist' Beliefs about ElephantsB.Amazing Experiments about ElephantsC.An Unexpected Finding about ElephantsD.A Long Scientific Debate about ElephantsBWhat will power your house in the future?Nuclear,wind,or solar power?According to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT)in the US,it might be leaves—but artificial(人造的)ones.Natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy.It is known as photosynthesis(光合作用).Now researchers have found a way to imitate this seemingly simple process.The artificial leaf developed by Daniel Nocera and his colleagues at MIT can be seen as a special silicon chip with catalysts(催化剂).Similar to natural leaves,it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket ofwater.The hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell,which uses those two materials to produce electricity,located either on top of a house or beside the house.Though the leaf is only about the shape of a poker card,scientists claimed that it is promising to be an inexpensive source of electricity in developing countries.“One can imagine villages in India and Africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology,”said Nocera at a conference of the American Chemical Society.The artificial leaf is not a new idea.The first artificial leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and unstable for practical use.The new leaf,by contrast,is made of cheap materials,easy to use and highly stable.In laboratory studies,Nocera showed that an artificial leaf prototype(原型)could operate continuously for at least 45 hours without a drop in activity.The wonderful improvements come from Nocera's recent discovery of several powerful,new and inexpensive catalysts.These catalysts make the energy transformation inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight.Right now,the new leaf is about 10 times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one.Besides,the device can run in whatever water is available;that is,it doesn't need pure water.This is important for some countries that don't have access to pure water.With the goal to “make each home its own power station” and “give energy to the poor”,scientists believe that the new technology could be widely used in developing countries,especially in India and rural China.41.Which of the following orders correctly shows how the artificial leaf is used to produce electricity? a.artificial leaves split water into hydrogen and oxygenb.the hydrogen and oxygen gases are stored in a fuel cellc.the artificial leaves are put in waterd.the fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricityA.c,b,a,d B.c,a,b,dC.b,c,a,d D.c,a,d,b42.Which of the following statements about new artificial leaves is NOT WRONG according to the article? A.They are inexpensive but unstable.B.They are as efficient at carrying out photosynthesis as natural leaves.C.They can work only in pure water.D.They need several catalysts to help them work efficiently.43.The purpose of the scientists at MIT in developing the new artificial leaf is to________.A.build up more power stations in the worldB.provide cheaper energy for developing countriesC.offer people in developing countries access to pure waterD.gain a deeper understanding of the photosynthesis process44.The main idea of this passage is ________.A.an introduction to the history of artificial leavesB.an invention copying photosynthesisC.giving energy to the poorD.a mixture of water power and solar energy45..The underlined word “imitate” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “________”.A.produce B.hold C.prevent D.copy答案与解析1.答案C[考查动词的非谓语形式。

According to Leao,pineapple leaves and stems(茎),and a plant related to the pineapple in SouthAmerica,called curaua,rather than wood may be the most promising source for nano­cellulose.To create the plastics,researchers put the leaves and stems of pineapples and other plants into a device similar to a pressure cooker.Then they added certain chemicals and heated the mixture over several cycles,producing a powder that was then added to the plastics.The process is costly,but it takes just 1 pound of nano­cellulose to produce 100 pounds of super ­strong,lightweight plastics,Leao pointed out.Some car makers have already tested these nano­cellulose plastics and scientists have predicted the plastics would be in use within two years,mainly for bodies for cars.16.The underlined word “reinforce”in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to“________”.A.take the place ofB.make something strongerC.increase the percentage ofD.get rid of17.Which of the following statements about the nano­sized fruit fiber is TRUE?A.It is used to make bulletproof vests.B.It is used to replace steel and aluminum automotive parts.C.It can resist damage from heat,water or oxygen.D.Leao thinks it is better than nano­cellulose from wood.18.According to the article,which of the following is the correct order that researchers produced super­strong,lightweight plastics?a.put pineapple leaves and stems into a device similar to a pressure cookerb.a powder is formedc.add some powders to the plasticsd.add certain chemicals and heat the mixture over several cyclesA.b,c,a,d B.a,b,c,dC.b,a,c,d D.a,d,b,c19.We can conclude from the article that nano­cellulose________.A.costs too much to produceB.is the best if produced from woodC.is about the width of a single human hairD.is currently being tested to build bodies for cars20.The writer holds ________ attitude toward the new plastics.A.positive B.negative C.indifferent D.objectiveⅢ.阅读表达(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)[1]Queuing, warm beer and afternoon tea—what do they have in common? They are all part of British life, or so I thought. However, the ability to queue for long periods of time, once believed tobe a typical traditional characteristic of the British, is no longer tolerated by people in the UK, according to a survey done by the Payments Council. It would seem they are no longer prepared to wait in line.[2]Once upon a time, queuing was seen as normal. During the Second World War, everyone had to queue up to receive their daily ration(配给)of foods. In fact, if you didn't stand up and wait in line with all the others, it was________uncivilized (不文明).The famous English double­decker buses, with only one entrance, might also help explain why queuing was seen as a part of life. Almost always, there is a queue to get on.[3]But perhaps the British are tired of being pushed by the Spanish, the Italians or the French as they queue up to get a table at a restaurant. The people of these other European countries have more than one entrance to their buses, which could explain their more relaxed attitude to the queue.[4]Two minutes is now the longest time most British are prepared to stand and wait. But could it be that the Internet, which allows us to carry out tasks quickly, is the main reason why British people are no longer prepared to queue? As the Internet has become more popular among shoppers, impatience with queuing has increased.[5]“Used to buying without delay, customers are even abandoning purchases rather than wait their turn,”says Stuart Neal of Barclaycard.“Shoppers_are_also_less_likely_to_queue_for_longer_if_the_item_they_are_buying_is_of_low_va lue.”Perhaps I will have to replace“queuing”with“impatience”in my list of things I associate with the British.21.What is the main idea of the text? (no more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________________22.Which of the fol1owing can be replaced by the following one?In the past queuing was thought to be a traditional feature of the British, but now they can't stand it any more.________________________________________________________________________23.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper phrases.(no more than 4 words)________________________________________________________________________24.Why do British people tend not to queue any longer?

it comes to digestion it will not happen without water.Fiber alone cannot aid proper digestive function by itself.In fact,without water as its partner,good fiber goes bad,causing constipation(便秘)and extreme discomfort.Drinking water is important if you're trying to lose weight and some studies have shown that thirst and hunger sensations take place together.If there is slight dehydration(脱水),the thirst mechanism may be mistaken for hunger and one may eat some food.As most food contains some water,if one doesn't drink much water they may be driven to eat more food to gain the necessary water supply.However,you also gain the undesirable effects of increased calories.Drinking more water can help to prevent overeating and benefit weight loss.It is better to drink smaller quantities of water more frequently than to drink a lot of water at one time.It is recommended to drink 8 to 12 ounces a day and if you have not been drinking water regularly,you should double the recommended amount because your cells are already dehydrated.Make sure that you don't drink too much water in the morning prior to any physical activity.It is very essential to plan aproper routine for water drinking.Water which is not harmful to health and has all qualities to serve as drinking water is called potable water.The potable water must be free from heavy metals,suspended particles and pathogens like bacteria.The polluted sky,dusty winds,chemicals spewed(涌出)from industries get dissolved with rainwater,causing acid rain.It is not advisable to drink such rainwater.36.According to the first paragraph,water________.A.can help to purify your bodyB.has some digestive functionsC.will mix with vitamins and nutrientsD.can prevent all kinds of diseases37.In order to lose weight you'd better________.A.eat food containing waterB.refuse to take in caloriesC.take part in more physical activitiesD.drink enough water every day38.We can infer from the third paragraph that we should ________.A.drink much water at one timeB.gain much water in the morningC.form a good habit of water drinkingD.drink double the proper amount every day39.The author suggests that we not drink rainwater probably because________. A.there is enough drinking waterB.it is harmful to our body healthC.it includes many kinds of metalsD.we should try to save more water40.Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A.The benefits of drinking waterB.The more water you drink,the healthier you areC.It's our duty to protect the environmentD.The potable water and rainwater参考答案1.D [考查交际用语。

One evening we went out and we picked up four people from the street. And one of them was in a most terrible condition—and I told the sisters: You take care of the other three. I take care of this one who looked worse. So I did for her all that my love can do. I put her in bed, and there was such a beautiful smile on her face. She took hold of my hand as she said just the words “Thank you” and she died.I could not help but examine my conscience before her and I asked what I would say if I was in her place. And my answer was very simple. I would have tried to draw a little attention to myself. I would have said I am hungry, I am dying, I am cold, I am in pain, or something, but she gave me much more—she gave me her grateful love. And she died with a smile on her face. So did that man whom we picked up from the drain, half eaten with worms, and we brought him to the home. “I have lived like an animal in the street, but I am going to die like an angel, loved and cared for,” he said at the end. And it was so wonderful to see the greatness of that man who could speak like that, who could die like that without blaming anybody, without cursing anybody, without comparing anything. Like an angel—this is the greatness of our people. And that is why we believe what Jesus has said: I was hungry, I was naked, I was homeless, I was unwanted, unloved, uncared for, and you did it to me.And with this prize that I received as a Prize of Peace, I am going to try to make the home for many people who have no home. Because I believe that love begins at home and if we can create a home for the poor I think that more and more love will spread. And we will be able through this understanding love to bring peace, the good news to the poor, the poor in our own family first, in our country and in the world. When I pick up a person from the street, hungry and I give him a plate of rice or a piece of bread, I am satisfied. I have removed that hunger. But to a person who is shut out, who feels unwanted, unloved, terrified, who has been thrown out from society, that poverty is so full of hurt and so unbearable... And so let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love, and once we begin to love each other naturally we want to do something.16. What can be learned from the second paragraph?A. The woman should have paid more attention to herself.B. The man couldn't blame anyone.C. The author is religious.D. The man died in the street.17. The purpose of this passage is ________.A. to appeal for more donation for the poorB. to call on the public to love each otherC. to tell the readers the poor are wonderfulD. to express how moved the author is to receive the prize18.

The shop was divided by three long aisles, with rows of shelves crammed with all sorts of things. Except for her and Mr. Patel, the owner, there were only two other people there. They were two teenage boys, and they were standing at the end of one of the aisles.She glanced at them as she passed. They were both wearing long, old­fashioned overcoats and they looked rather ridiculous in them because the coats were too big. __21__ “Watch out, stupid,” she heard one of them whisper to the other. She walked on to the next aisle and found the rice she was looking for.Then she heard something else. __22__ She peered through a gap in the shelf and caught a glimpse of one of the boys bending down. She saw him pick up a tin of food. But instead of putting it in the shopping basket, he dropped it into the inside pocket of his long overcoat. Jennifer glanced back down the aisle. She could see Mr. Patel at the cash till, still checking through his list.__23__ The boys still had their backs to her. “Come on, let's get out of here,” she heard one of them say. At the same time, she saw one of them put another tin in his overcoat pocket. They moved away from her. She could no longer see what they were doing or hear what they were saying.When she got to the still, the two boys were in front of her. She watched them pay for the few things they had in the basket. They had both buttoned their coats and fastened them with their belts. __24__ He even smiled at them as they were about to leave. Jennifer opened her mouth to say something.A.It sounded like a tin dropping on the floor.B.But such things were popular with some teenagers at the time.C.Then she looked through the gap in the shelf again.D.On her way she had to buy some food and stopped in one of the shops in the street.E.They were picking many things to their basket.F.Mr. Patel was so friendly to his customers.G.Mr. Patel did not seem suspicious at all.Ⅳ.短文改错Dear Abby,How are you?

They say it is too far that they will not see me for a whole year and they are afraid that I will feel lonely and will not be used to the climate here. They can't imagine a young girl like me live alone. They advise me to study in the capital instead. Then I'll be able to continue living with them.

Laws in the American South kept the two races separate. These laws forced black people to attend separate schools, live in separate areas of a city and sit in separate areas on a bus.On December 1st, 1955, in the southern city of Montgomery, Alabama, a 42-year-old black woman got on a city bus. The law at that time required black people who sat in a particular area of the bus to give up their seats to white people who wanted them. The woman refused to do this and was arrested. This act of peaceful disobedience started protests in Montgomery that led to legal changes in minority rights in the United States. The woman who started it was Rosa Parks.The bus driver demanded that all four black people leave their seats so that a white person would not have to sit next to any of them. The three other blacks got up, but Rosa Parks refused. She was arrested.Some popular stories about that incident include the statement that Rosa Parks refused to leave her seat because her feet were tired. But she herself said in later years that this was false. What she was really tired of, she said, was accepting unequal treatment. She explained later that this seemed to be the place for her to stop being pushed around and to find out what human rights she had, if any.She was born in nineteen-thirteen in Tuskegee, Alabama. Rosa married Raymond Parks in 1932. He was a barber who cut men’s hair. He was also a civil rights activist. Together, they worked for the local group of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Later she became a representation of freedom for millions of African-Americans.56. What was the situation for blacks in the south of the United States in the 1960s?A. They were separated from whites although it was forbidden by laws.B. They could study in the same school with whites.C. They could not live in the same area of a city with whites.D. They could not take the same bus with whites.57. Rosa Parks refused to leave her seat because she ________.A. didn’t notice the white person at that timeB. didn’t know the l aw at that timeC. didn’t think it was right for her to leave her seatD. wanted to start protests in Montgomery58. Which is the RIGHT time order of the events that happened to Rosa Parks?a. She was called the mother of the American civil rights movement.b. She refused to give up her seat and was arrested.c. She became a representation of freedom for African-Americans.d. She married Raymond Parks.e. She and her husband worked for the local group of the National Association for theAdvancement of Colored People.A. d, b, a, c, eB. d, e, b, c, aC. c, b, d, e, aD. c, d, b, e, a59. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. the family of Rosa Parks were unhappy because of their colored skinB. Rosa Parks was once arrested because she was a black ladyC. Rosa Parks did much work for the equal rights of black peopleD. Rosa Parks’ husband Raymond Parks is a white personBI’m usually fairly skeptical about any research that concludes that people are either happier or unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago. While any of these statements might be true, they are practically impossible to prove scientifically. Still, I was struck by a report which concluded that today’s children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s. In fact, the analysis showed, normal children ages 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for mental illness 50 years ago.Why are America’s kids so stressed? The report cites two main causes: increasing physical isolation (孤独) —brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement in community, among other things —and a growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place.Given that we can’t turn the clock back, adults can still do plenty to help the next gener ation cope.At the top of the list is nurturing (培育) a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. No child is an island. Strengthening social ties helps build communities and protect individuals against stress.To help kids build stronger connections with others, you can pull the plug on TVs and computers. Your family will thank you later. They will then have more time for face-to-face relationships, and they will get more sleep.Limit the amount of virtual (虚拟的) violence your children are exposed to. It’s not just video games and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news.Keep your expectations for your children reasonable. Many highly successful people never attended Harvard or Yale.Make exercise part of your daily routine. It will help you deal with your own anxieties and provide a good model for your kids. Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable. But it doesn’t have to ruin your life.60. The underlined word “skeptical” in Paragraph 1 probably means “ ”.A. surprisedB. confusedC. illogicalD. questionable61. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 mean?A. It’s impossible to slow down the pace of change.B. The social reality children are facing can’t be changed.C. Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten.D. It’s impossible to forget the past.62. According to an analysis, compared with normal children today, children treated as mentally ill50 years ago .A. were less isolated physicallyB. were probably less self-centeredC. probably suffered less from anxietyD. were considered less individualistic63. The first and most important thing parents should do to help their children is to .A. provide them with a safer environmentB. lower their expectations for themC. get them more involved sociallyD. be a good model for them to followCThere is more than one way of being a great teacher. Some teachers are great because their passion for their subject is so wholehearted that it’s catching.There are other teachers who teach us secretly by exciting our own passions. They can teach even the least promising children to read by giving them books about the things they love. They may teach us science by letting us raise baby hamsters (仓鼠), math by allowing us to build bridges for a model railroad, and reading by getting us to write stories for each other which will be printed out and bound as books.Some teachers start by asking children what they want to know about. If the children want to learn about their environment, they teach reading using books like WhoKilledCockRobin? (an ecological mystery), science by having the children conduct population studies of nearby pools and small rivers, math by having them analyze their data and writing by having them share their data by e-mail with kids in other schools who are doing the same thing. What the kids learn is meaningful to them because they wanted to know it, and because they didn’t just passively absorb knowledge — they actively created it.Some of our teachers light candles by simply believing in us. Too many children are told all their lives what they can’t do and when we’re told that all the time, we come to believe it and give up on ourselves. The teacher who tells us, with absolute conviction that we are capable of mastering a difficult subject, who encourages us and makes sure we understand, lights a candle that can never be extinguished (熄灭) as the light is of self-respect.64. The author’s main purpose in writing the passage is to show us ________.A. who are great teachersB. who can become great teachersC. what great teachers doD. which is the best way to be a great teacher65. How many kinds of teachers does the author mention in the passage?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.D. Six.66. How do the teachers mentioned in Paragraph 2 teach their students?A. They teach their students in the classroom.B. They teach their students everything they know.C. They help their students to study by themselves.D. They teach their students in every possible situation.67. From Paragraph 3 we can learn that these teachers ________.A. meet their students’ ne edsB. teach their students everythingC. are not popular with their studentsD. find it hard to teach their studentsDJazz can mean different kinds of music: swing, bebop or fusion. It can make listeners feel sad or joyful, quiet or energetic. It can sound hot or very cool. Performers create some of the jazz music as they play or add their own notes to music that is written down. Each time a jazz musician plays a piece, it can sound fresh and new. Jazz musicians surprise listeners by breaking up traditional rhythms, and give greater intensity to unexpected parts of the music.Jazz probably had its roots in the nineteenth century. In the late 1880s, African-Americans began to develop new forms of music. They created blues music from gospel music and the sad songs of their years in slavery. Ragtime, which first gained popularity in the 1890s in the South, also influenced the creation of jazz.African-American and Creole musicians in New Orleans, Louisiana probably developed the first true jazz music during the early 1900s. Musicians performing at memorial and holiday parties added their own music to written music. This New Orleans music is often called classic, traditional or Dixieland jazz.Musicians helped spread jazz to other places and it continued to gain popularity as the years passed. During the 1920s, Louis Armstrong became famous for his performances on the trumpet and jazz cornet. Later his unusual voice became just as famous.Historians often call the 1920s the Jazz Age, or the Golden Age of American Jazz. Young people from the Middle West, including great performers like Gene Krupa and Benny Goodman, created a new musical form called Chicago-style jazz during this time.68. According to Paragraph One, we can learn that ________.A. jazz music is full of variety and ever-changingB. jazz music is composed by a musician before it is playedC. jazz musicians follow traditionsD. jazz performers are usually energetic69. All the following influenced the creation of jazz EXCEPT __________.A. blues musicB. gospel musicC. swing musicD. ragtime music70. From the passage, we know that ______________.A. each time a jazz musician plays a piece, it can sound hot and newB. ragtime gained popularity later than jazzC. the first true jazz music was born in New Orleans, LouisianaD. Chicago-style jazz was created during the 1890s71. From the last two paragraphs, we can infer that in the 1920s _______.A. Louis Armstrong became famous for his performancesB. jazz became popular with people from all over the countryC. historians created a new form of jazzD. young people from the Middle West helped spread jazz72. The passage is mainly about __________.A. various kinds of jazzB. famous jazz musiciansC. features of jazz musicD. the birth of jazzEThe first hotels were very different from today’s hotels. They were small inns built along the road. Later, as people began to travel by train, hotels were built in the centers of large cities. Usually located near railroad stations, these hotels were many stories tall and had hundreds of rooms.Although trains were a popular means of travel for some time, automobiles slowly began to take their place. Automobile travel caused problems for city hotels, as they did not have parking space for so many cars.People who traveled by automobile needed a different kind of hotel. They needed places to stay that were near highways and had parking space. Motorists also did not like to drive in heavy city traffic to reach a hotel. The answer to this problem came with a new kind of hotel. These new buildings were called motels, a word made from the first part of “motorist” and the last part of “hotels”.Motels were much smaller than hotels. Built on ground level, often in separate units, they were more convenient for people traveling. The separate units also made them quieter than hotels. Best of all, there was more than enough room to park cars.Now many big hotels in the cities are being torn down. They can no longer make enough money to stay in business. In their place, many small motels have been built on the outskirts of cities. Motels have become a big business in the United States.73. Which is the most important reason for the popularity of motels?A. They had rooms large enough for big families.B. They had enough parking space for cars.C. They had sufficient ground floor room.D. They had quiet and convenient units.74. According to the passage, we can learn that motels are usually ________.A. large and tall buildings built in downtown areasB. large and low buildings built around city centersC. small and tall buildings built on the outskirts of a cityD. small and low buildings built along highways outside the city75. Many big hotels are being torn down mainly because ________.A. they can’t compete with motelsB. people want to build small motels on that landC. it costs people too much money to stay in a hotelD. cities are usually short of land to build hotels第四部分写作(共两节, 满分35 分)第一节短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)One evening, while my parent and I were watching TV 76. ______in the sitting room, my father began to smoke cigarette. 77. ______Soon the room was full with smoke.

efforts to mark World Mental Health Day.More than 15 percent of the Chinese youth have been found with mental problems,and about30 million young people under 17 are suffering from depression,the Shanghai­based Wenhui Dailyreported.The World Health Organization estimated that before 2020,the rate of children with mentalproblems will increase to 50 percent,and mental problem will become a major factor behind deathand illness in the young worldwide.Deng Xiaohong,the spokesperson for the Beijing municipal health bureau,said rapid socialchange is one of the reasons behind the rising number of youngsters with psychological problems.If these mental diseases are not addressed on time,occurrence of crime,drug ­taking and otherdangerous behavior is expected to rise.Experts said mental disease could be caused by many factors,such as the inability to handleinterpersonal relations well,unstable emotions and pressure from the overload of study.A numberof experts have also said the one­child policy is another reason leading to poor mental health in theyoung.Children were said to be too “spoiled”and “selfish”in one­child families.Schools in manycities were reported rolling out measures to help students maintain their mental well ­being,YinJingmiao,a teacher of the Beijing No.105 Middle School,told China Daily that the school invitespsychologists to provide counseling to students three times a month.“Students can be arranged tohave 40­minute counseling sessions,”Yin said.The school also gives lectures on mental health tosenior grade students before they take the national college entrance exams,to help ease any anxietyarising from the tests.36.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To urge awareness on mental health of the young.B.To give the details of the problems the Chinese youth are facing todayC.To recommend that schools should invite more psychologists to help solve the mentalproblemsamong the youth.D.To show us the causes of the mental problems among students.37.The underlined word “addressed” in the fifth paragraph most probably means “________”.A.talked about B.dealt withC.satisfied D.introduced38.From the passage we can know that the causes of mental problems are mainly the followingEXCEPT ________.A.one­child policyB.lack of ability to handle interpersonal relations wellC.lack of special training in mental healthD.heavy burden from study39.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.By 2020,about 50 percent of the students in China will have mental problems. B.Mental problems mainly appear among the youth while they are seldom seen among adults.C.China has the largest number of youngsters with psychological problems. D.Many schools have realized the problem and taken measures40.We can infer that to bring down the occurrence of mental problems among the youth,________.A.attention should be paid to the education of the only childB.psychologist must be a necessary part of schoolC.the government will cancel tests to ease the pressure on the studentsD.rapid social change plays the leading part in causing mental problemsBAsk savvy investors(投资者) how they learned their first lessons about money, and they'll probably tell you lessons their parents taught them.The money values we learn as children stay with us the rest of our lives. If you are a parent, teaching your children the value of saving and investing will benefit them the rest of their lives. Here's what you can do:Help your child begin to save. Open savings accounts for your children, and teach them how the bank adds interest to their savings that makes their money grow. Encourageyour children to save a little from every bit of money they receive, such as allowances, birthday gifts, etc. You may even want to set up a matching program, contributing fifty cents for each dollar your child saves.Teach your child about stocks(股票). A child in elementary school can start learning about how businesses work. Once your child understands the basics, ask him or her to think about some of the businesses that might be good stock investments. Then use Morningstar Mutual Fund Guide(available at your library)to find a quality mutual fund that holds some of these companies, or a mutual fund that caters to children such as the Stein Roe Young Investor Fund. Many funds accept regular monthly investments as low as $50 a month, so these funds can be a good way to teach children about the stock market while saving for their college education.Encourage early IRA(个人退休金账户)saving. The new Roth IRA is a great way for children who are working in summers or after school to begin saving for their future. Imagine how much money you'd have today if you had saved $3,000 a year since you were a teenager!Let your kids handle their own money. We all learn by doing, so letting your kids manage a segment of their budget(预算)will let them earn valuable financial lessons.They may make mistakes, but they will be small mistakes that may help them avoid larger mistakes as adults.41.Which would be the best title for this passage?A.Why to Teach Your Children to SaveB.How to Teach Your Children to SaveC.Tips for Saving for ChildrenD.Start Good Saving Habits Early42.A matching program means ________.A.that you should set a good example to your childrenB.that you should provide enough money for children so that they can save some C.that you encourage your children to compete with each other in savingD.that you encourage your children by giving some extra money for them to save 43.According to the author, you should teach your children about investment when he/she is ________.A.in the kindergarten B.in primary schoolC.in middle school D.in college44.Which of the following is NOT an advantage of the Stein Roe Young Investor Fund?A.It is usually with high benefits.B.It accepts regular monthly investments.C.It accepts small investments as low as $50 a month.D.It caters to children who can afford small investments.45.The advantage of letting your kids manage their budget lies in ________. A.that they will make great businessmen in the futureB.that they will know the difficulty of managing a budgetC.that they will avoid making bigger mistakes in the futureD.that they will share happiness of managing their own budgetCToday, people all over the world are moving out of small villages in the country to go and live in big, noisy cities. They are moving from the peaceful hills, mountains, fields, rivers and streams of the countryside to the busy world of streets, buildings, traffic and crowds. This movement from rural(乡下的) areas to urban areas has been going on for over two hundred years.In many countries, the main reason people come to live in towns and cities is work. After one or two large factories have been built in or near a town, people come to find work, and soon an industrial area begins to grow. There is usually a_residential_area nearby, too. The families of these workers need schools, hospitals and shops, so many people come to live in the area to provide these services and a city grows.In every major city in the world, there is a business district where the big companies have their main offices. In the United States, this area is usually in the city center downtown. It is here that you can see many huge skyscrapers(摩天大楼)and office blocks. The people who work here often travel a long way to work each day. Many of them live in the suburbs of the city, far away from the industrial area and the city center. Some suburbs are very pleasant, with nice houses and big gardens. There are usually parks for children to play in and large department stores where you can buy all you need.But what is the future of the big cities? Will they continue to get bigger and bigger? Perhaps not. Some major cities have actually become smaller in the last ten years, and it is quite possible that one day we will see people moving out of the major cities and back into smaller towns and villages.46.The underlined phrase “a residential area” means an area________.A.where people can buy thingsB.which is suitable for living inC.where people can do businessD.which is near a city center47.Why do people move to live in cities or towns?A.Because they can live more comfortably there.B.Because they like noisy life better than peaceful life.C.Because they mainly want to find work there.D.Because they are sure of having a better life there.48.Which of the following statement is NOT true about the business district? A.Big companies usually have their main offices in the business district. B.People usually work and live in the business district.C.A business district usually lies in the city center downtown.D.Nearly every major city has its own business district.49.In the United States, many people work in the center of a big city________. A.and live thereB.but live in the suburbs of the cityC.and live in another cityD.but live in rural areas50.We can infer that this movement from rural to urban areas ________.A.has been going on for more than 2,000 yearsB.will surely continue in the futureC.may not continue in the futureD.has now stopped already答案与解析1.【答案】 D【解析】burst into laughter“大笑起来”,为固定搭配,等于burst out laughing。

Since that time people have come to America from all over the world, from Europe, Africa, and Asia, and they have brought their music with them. This mixing of people and music has created American music.Music is a very important part of our lives. Music is for dancing, drinking, eating, loving, and thinking. Some songs remind us of our childhood or youth.Others remind of the people they love. Many important occasions, like weddings and funerals have special music. Every nation has a national song like the American “The Star-Spangled Banner”. In the US high schools and colleges have school songs too.Music is a part of the history of America. It expresses the problems and feelings of its people. As the years pass, the music grows and changes.Modern science has also changed music. Inventions like records, radios, movies, electric instruments, tape recorders, and videos have changed the way we play and listen to music. They have helped to make music an important form of international communication.American music, from the earliest folk songs to modern “pop”,is known around the world. Music is one of America's most important exports. It brings the people of the world together. Even when people cannot understand the same language, they can share the same music. Many people learn and practise English by singing song. Understanding American music can help you understand American people, their history and culture.So, as the song says, “put a dime (10 cents)in the juke box (自动点唱机), baby.

It disappeared almost a year ago when he got out of a cab and forgot to take the guitar with him. Laurence Lennon, 44, said he was running late that day. He was talking to his manager on his cell phone when he dashed out of the taxi. He said that he gave the driver $ 60 and told him to keep the change. He walked through the front doors of the concert hall still talking on the phone to his manager.Upon discovering his loss, Lennon used his cell phone to call the police. The policewoman asked him for the name of the cab company, the number of the cab, and the name of the driver. He said that she had to be kidding.She told Lennon that he could file a missing items report at the police station or online. Lennon asked for the online address. She told him that finding the guitar might take a couple of years—finding guitars was not as important as finding murderers and marijuana smokers. Then she told him to have a nice day.“This year has been depressing,”said Lennon. “I had to postpone the recording of two new CDs. I've been using borr owed guitars. And I was losing hope of ever recovering my guitar.”Lennon was reunited with his $ 100,000 musical instrument yesterday. The case and the guitar had been discovered in the corner of a coffee house only two blocks from where Lennon had lost it in the first place. Lennon had offered a $ 10,000 reward for its return. He said he would give the reward to the coffee house owner, who had informed the police.6.It can be inferred from this reading passage that________.A.Lennon gave the driver much more money than what was actually neededB.Lennon couldn't give any useful information about the driver and his cabC.Lennon was too busy talking to his friend to remember to pay the cab driverD.Lennon used to work at the concert hall in New York City7.The policewoman told Lennon________.A.not to worry about the guitar B.to have a nice day in New York CityC.to find the cab driver and talk to him D.to wait with patience8.Which of the following is the most important according to the policewoman?A.Finding a lost guitar. B.Finding the cab driver.C.Finding murderers. D.Enjoying one's own life9.The underlined word“depressing”can be best explained by“________”.A.making people feel sad B.making people unfortunateC.making people losing money D.making people losing good luckCListening to music can help me focus better. Since I discovered it two years ago, I’ve used music to get through boring work or to focus creatively. I’ve found that it c an make even the dullest jobs enjoyable and help clear mental blocks to creativity.I first noticed the good effects of music while playing video games. It was a few days before Christmas in 2008 and I was playing online video games. My parents had just given me a new MP3, so I decided to listen to music through the headphones while I played. After a few minutes I noticed a great change in my style of play. I was playing more naturally. The music relaxed me, and, to a certain extent, distracted me from the game, allowing my subconscious(潜意识的)talent to come through. The music also helped me block out the outside world. With those headphones on I was like a machine, moving from one task to the next without unnecessary thoughts or actions.Music can also have a great effect on mood. If I’m in a bad mood at work, I’ll listen to some of Bob Marley’s and get down to business. It always takes my mind off what I’m doing and makes me a happier person. The same is true for classic rock. One summer, I did a boring job collecting bottle openers by hand. Without a radio playing classic rock in thebackground, I would have hated life.Listening to music with relaxing rhythms and a positive message helps you forget your work and think happy thoughts. But the results you see will depend heavily on your personal tastes. Experiment with the types of music you listen to during certain tasks. By trial and error you’ll finally discover your best choice. I’m always looking for new concentration aids, so I’d love to know what type of music works best for me.10. We can infer that the passage was written in ________.A. 2005B. 2006C. 2010D. 200811. The author first discovered the effects of music ________.A. from his parentsB. by chanceC. at workD. when he was a child12. The author mentions the experience of collecting bottle openers in Paragraph 3 to________.A. tell us that life is dullB. prove that music affects moodC. tell us how to seek happinessD. tell us bad mood can affect work13. In order to get the greatest effect of music, you are advised to ________.A. listen to some of Bob Marley’sB. only choose relaxing musicC. test all kinds of musicD. listen to classic rockDI was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday. The advertisement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theatre box in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00. Since I work from 9:00 to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theatre was during my 45-minute lunch break. Unfortunately, the theatre is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky you can make the round trip in 45 minutes. Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for the bus. By the time I saw one come around the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip. So I gave up and went back to the office. The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again the next day. On Thursday, my luck changed. I got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre in exactly twenty minutes. When I got there , however, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard oneman say he had been waiting in line for over an hour. Realising I would not have enough time to wait in line, I caught the next bus and headed back across the town. By Friday I realised my only hope was to make the trip by taxi, it was expensive, but I felt it would be worth it to hear the concert. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. The reason, however, I quickly discovered, was that they had already sold out all the tickets.14. The man learned _______ that there would be a concert last Friday.A. from his friendsB. from one of his workmatesC. over the radioD. from the newspaper15. He tried to go to the theatre every day but ma-naged to get there only ______.A. onceB. twiceC. three timesD. four times16.

But Theodor Seuss Geisel—better known as the children’s boo ks author Dr. Seuss—who came into the world on 2 March, 1904, was an unusual man.Like generations of children I was raised on his wonderful stories. But when I now read them to my children it’s not just the childhood memories I enjoy. His writing is bril liant and imaginative and flows with a self-confidence as sure as the words of a Shakespeare poem. Readers ride his characteristic rhythm with an effortless joy that cannot be matched by any other modern writer: You have brains in your headYou have feet in your shoesYou can steer yourself any direction you chooseAnd will you succeed?Yes indeed, yes indeed!Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed.Seuss’s brilliant cartoons and clever words make his books a delight for adults but they appeal most to children of course. His stories teach kids moral lessons but in indirect and entertaining ways.The first Seuss book I was given was The Lorax, written just as the 60s were becoming the 70s. Seuss was ahead of his time, and in this book the dawn of concern for environmental problems are shown as the Lorax “who speaks for the trees” battles against an evil businessman who wants to destroy the forest and make goods “which everyone needs”.It’s not only a warning of the heavy price of environmental d estruction, written well before most people had thought to worry, but it’s also a smart analysis of consumer societies: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not. ” This is of course a moral message, but not of the kind designed to persuade the youngsters into behavior thatadults want.I could go on, but hey, it’s a birthday, and I’m sure you folks have some good toasts to raise for the party. . .1. What’s the purpose of this passage?A. To introduce Dr. Seuss’s life.B. To analyse Dr. Seuss’s books.C. To describe Dr. Seuss’s writing style.D. To celebrate Dr. Seuss’s achievements.2. Why does the author include Dr. Seuss’s poem?A. To encourage readers to use their brains and choose their own way.B. To give readers a sample of Seuss’s story The Lorax.C. To provide readers with an example of Seuss’s writing style.D. To explain how relevant Seuss’s stories remain today.3. Why do adults also enjoy Seuss’s books?A. His words and pictures are imaginative enough to be enjoyed by all.B. His books give children obvious moral messages to learn from.C. He writes about adult topics in a way that is understandable to children.D. He was the first person to write about the environment.4. When was the book The Lorax written?A. Early 1960s.B.

外研版高三英语Book7Module4测试试卷及答案(2)三、阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)AThe Eubie Blake National Jazz Institute and Cultural Center is in Baltimore, Maryland. It is named after one of the most important African-American jazz and ragtime (拉格泰姆音乐) musicians of the 20th century. Before his death in 1983, Eubie Blake was believed to be the only musician still living who had played ragtime music.Eubie Blake was born in Baltimore in 1887. He began playing the piano when he was about five years old. He was playing professionally by the age of sixteen. In 1921, he and Noble Sissle wrote the musical play Shuffle Along. It was the first Broadway musical written, produced and performed by all African Americans. Shuffle Along ran for more than five hundred performances. The musical helped launch the careers of several African-American performers, including singers Josephine Baker and Paul Robeson.Eubie Blake wrote other Broadway musicals during his eighty-year career. He also wrote more than 350 songs. The original songs are still on display at the Eubie Blake National Jazz Institute and Cultural Center.The Center opened in 1978. It was part of an effort to bring cultural arts to young people in the inner city of Baltimore. At the same time, Eubie Blake and his wife Marian were negotiating an agreement with the Maryland Historical Society. They wanted to donate several historically important objects. These included original sheet music and audio recordings of several Eubie Blake songs. They also included personal letters written by Blake andold pictures of him and other famous musicians. And they included the original government document proclaiming February fourteenth, 1973 as Eubie Blake Day in Baltimore. Thousands of people visit the center every year, especially young people.36. What is the passage mainly about?A. The Eubie Blake National Jazz Institute and Cultural Center.B. The great achievements of a famous African-American musician.C. The ragtime music in American history.D. An effort to bring cultural arts to young people in Baltimore.37. Shuffle Along is mentioned in Paragraph 2 because _______.A. it is the first musical play written by Eubie BlakeB. it is the most famous musical play in BroadwayC. it is the first Broadway musical ever to be madeD. it is a milestone for many African Americans38. The Eubie Blake National Jazz Institute and Cultural Center was built to _______.A. honor all African-American musiciansB. preserve the original works of Eubie BlakeC. make cultural arts known by young peopleD. train young African-American musicians39. We can infer from the second paragraph that _______.A. Eubie Blake was born into a musician’s familyB. Eubie Blake began his career at the age of 21C. several African-American people got their success from Shuffle AlongD. Josephine Baker and Paul Robeson contributed the mostto Shuffle Along40. The last paragraph implies that _______.A. Eubie Blake’s original works were not valued at firstB. the Center is not popular with young peopleC. Eubie Blake kept the most historically important objects himselfD. Eubie Blake’s achievements were admitted by the governmentBThere is no doubt that teens today are extremely busy. Homework piles up and extra-curricular (课外的) activities are time-consuming. Teens have to take part in a sport or activity after school, and they are up until 10:00 or later doing homework. Getting teenagers involved in voluntary opportunities can give them a sense of accomplishment that is not connected with sports or school.Teenagers are often in their own little world. Helping them get involved in voluntary opportunities is the perfect way for them to open up a new world and give their time to a good cause.The key to getting teens involved in voluntary work is to find an opportunity that will fit into their schedule and to find something that interests them. Also, keep it close to home. If you have to drive a long distance to volunteer, it’s less likely to be accomplished.My son has helped out with the local library’s reading program now for two summers. It is close to home and the schedule is very elastic. We go in and choose days that work with his schedule and he volunteers for about 2 hours at a time. He is responsible for helping kids get signed up for the summer reading program and helping them record the hours they read.It is only a one-week time commitment, but it is very rewarding.When teens volunteer, they often see that there are others more needy than themselves. They also learn time management. Your teen will become a more rounded, less self-centred individual.Colleges see thousands of students applying for admission every year. If your teen has shown the dedication to volunteer in the community, it could give him the advantage for college admission or scholarship opportunities. So, volunteering is good for their present and their future!41. What is the text mainly about?A. The heavy loads teens facing toady.B. The benefits of volunteering for teens.C. The author’s son’s volunteering experience.D. The requirements of volunteering.42. The author of the text probably _______.A. never thought his son would volunteerB. tries to limit his son’s volunteering timeC. supports his son in volunteeringD. is concerned about his son’s study43. We can infer from the last paragraph that _______.A. colleges are more likely to choose one with volunteering experiencesB. volunteering can help a teen stand out as an excellent studentC. scholarship opportunities are only offered to excellent studentsD. one can’t become an excellent student without volunteering experiences44. The underlined word “elastic” in the fourth paragraphcan be best replaced by _______.A. independentB. tightC. demandingD. flexible45. Which of the following will NOT be considered if you want to find a voluntary opportunity?A. Whether it can suit my interest.B. Whether it can improve my grades.C. Whether it is near or far from my home.D. Whether it can give me a sense of accomplishment.CIt seems lately that more and more of my friends are facing some seemingly insurmountable (难以对付的) challenges in their lives. A few have lost their jobs and some have failed marriages. Or too many have health issues.I don’t know if it is desperation that causes them to turn to me for advice. But it is difficult to offer words of hope when all they feel is hopeless. They expect answers, or a roadmap to get them back on their feet again.I have often struggled with what to say. Mostly because I have faced many of the same challenges in my own life, I remember how empty I felt after someone cheerfully offered words like, “Things will get better!”“It’s always darkest...”etc.Now, as an inspiration writer, being thought of as a resource of hope or a good (or bad) example of what to do in life, I have even more people contacting me.So, what do I say?“What can I do, Bob? I’ve lost my job. What do you suggest?”“Begin again.”“He walked out on me. My whole world just ended. Whatshould I do?”“Begin again.”It almost sounds too simple. I imagine in the darkest hours of one’s life those words would seem useless or uncaring. But it is indeed the answer.All life challenges bring about an ending—and the chance for a beginning. A failed marriage does not mean you are through with love or being loved. It means there are others just like you needing to be loved. Find them.A life-threatening disease does not mean giving up. It means starting a new path to recovery and discovering within yourself the ability to fight back and win.And if you are a person of faith, even death does not mean it’s over. It means “to begin again”.46. What is the best title for this passage?A. Begin again.B. A good piece of advice.C. A wise answer.D. A new path to recovery.47. Which of the following can be inferred from the text?A. One should never give up hope though life is hard.B. The author’s answer is very simple and useless.C. In fact, the author doesn’t know what to do with life challenges.D. All challenges will lead to an ending and desperation.48. The expression “walked out on” means _______.A. had pity onB. put up withC. went away fromD. got on with49. From the passage we can conclude that the suggestion on life challenges is _______.A. easyB. impossibleC. unrealisticD. effective50. Which of the following matches the writer’s suggestion on life challenges?A. A scientist did an experiment for many times and gave it up at last.B. A young man was refused by many companies and he started his own.C. A student failed the final examination and was lost in great despair.D. A man had a great loss in his business and jumped down from a building.DA new study says if a mom is apart from her children, talking on the phone will help as much as a hug.If you’re a parent who spends long hours on the job, you probably feel guilty for spending so much time away from your kids. But the results of a new study show that a mother’s voice alone can be just as comforting to an anxious child as physical contact.In an experiment, researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison asked a group of girls between the ages of 7 and 12 to solve math problems in front of judges — a stressful situation for anyone. Before the girls were set to give their answers, the researchers measured their levels of two hormones (荷尔蒙): cortisol, which goes up during stressful situations, and oxytocin, the “love” hormone, goes down.After they were finished, some of the girls got to meet up with their mothers right away. The moms came in and hugged the girls. Another group of the girls didn’t see their mothers, but received phone calls from them, on which their mothers told them how well they’d done. The final group had no contact withtheir mothers, but instead watched a cartoon movie, March of the Penguins.Finally, the girls’hormone levels were measured again. Although the movie was interesting, it did nothing to ease the children’s anxiety — but, surprisingly, both the physical contact and phone calls from their mothers had the same influence on easing the girls’ stress levels.So, no matter how old you are, if you’re feeling stressed about something in your life, a phone call to Mom might be just the key to help you feel better.51. What’s the main idea of the text?A. A mother’s voice can comfort her anxious kids.B. Mothers should often hug their kids.C. Mothers should spend enough time caring about their kids.D. Scientists discovered why kids become stressed when having tests.52. If a girl is under stress, _______.A. she can’t solve math problemsB. she will have high levels of hormoneC. oxytocin will remain at a high levelD. cortisol will increase with oxytocin down53. Which of the following is the right order in which the study was carried out?a. The girls solved math problems.b. The girls’ levels of hormones were measured again.c. The girls were divided into three groups.d. The girls’ levels of hormones were measured.A. a, c, d, bB. d, a, c, bC. c, a, d, bD. d, c, a, b54. From the text, we can infer that _______.A. parents should believe in their kidsB. kids should learn how to ease anxietyC. girls are not good at solving math problemsD. the girls who had watched the movie remained worried55. The writer’s attitude toward the result is _______.A. negativeB. puzzlingC. positiveD. unknown四、书面表达(共两节,满分45分)第一节阅读表达(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,并根据短文后的要求回答问题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

Since that time people have come to America from all over the world, from Europe, Africa, and Asia, and they have brought their music with them. This mixing of people and music has created American music.Music is a very important part of our lives. Music is for dancing, drinking, eating, loving, and thinking. Some songs remind us of our childhood or youth.Others remind of the people they love. Many important occasions, like weddings and funerals have special music. Every nation has a national song like the American “The Star-Spangled Banner”. In the US high schools and colleges have school songs too.Music is a part of the history of America. It expresses the problems and feelings of its people. As the years pass, the music grows and changes.Modern science has also changed music.

It disappeared almost a year ago when he got out of a cab and forgot to take the guitar with him. Laurence Lennon, 44, said he was running late that day. He was talking to his manager on his cell phone when he dashed out of the taxi. He said that he gave the driver $ 60 and told him to keep the change. He walked through the front doors of the concert hall still talking on the phone to his manager.Upon discovering his loss, Lennon used his cell phone to call the police. The policewoman asked him for the name of the cab company, the number of the cab, and the name of the driver. He said that she had to be kidding.She told Lennon that he could file a missing items report at the police station or online. Lennon asked for the online address. She told him that finding the guitar might take a couple of years—finding guitars was not as important as finding murderers and marijuana smokers. Then she told him to have a nice day.“This year has been depressing,”said Lennon. “I had to postpone the recording of two new CDs. I've been using borrowed guitars. And I was losing hope of ever recovering my guitar.”Lennon was reunited with his $ 100,000 musical instrument yesterday. The case and the guitar had been discovered in the corner of a coffee house only two blocks from where Lennon had lost it in the first place. Lennon had offered a $ 10,000 reward for its return. He said he would give the reward to the coffee house owner, who had informed the police.6.It can be inferred from this reading passage that________.A.Lennon gave the driver much more money than what was actually neededB.Lennon couldn't give any useful information about the driver and his cabC.Lennon was too busy talking to his friend to remember to pay the cab driverD.Lennon used to work at the concert hall in New York City7.The policewoman told Lennon________.A.not to worry about the guitar B.to have a nice day in New York CityC.to find the cab driver and talk to him D.to wait with patience8.Which of the following is the most important according to the policewoman?A.Finding a lost guitar. B.Finding the cab driver.C.Finding murderers. D.Enjoying one's own life9.The underlined word“depressing”can be best explained by“________”.A.making people feel sad B.making people unfortunateC.making people losing money D.making people losing good luckCListening to music can help me focus better. Since I discovered it two years ago, I’ve used music to get through boring work or to focus creatively. I’ve found that it can make even the dullest jobs enjoyable and help clear mental blocks to creativity.I first noticed the good effects of music while playing video games. It was a few days before Christmas in 2008 and I was playing online video games. My parents had just given me a new MP3, so I decided to listen to music through the headphones while I played. After a few minutes I noticed a great change in my style of play. I was playing more naturally. The music relaxed me, and, to a certain extent, distracted me from the game, allowing my subconscious(潜意识的)talent to come through. The music also helped me block out the outside world. With those headphones on I was like a machine, moving from one task to the next without unnecessary thoughts or actions.Music can also have a great effect on mood. If I’m in a bad mood at work, I’ll listen to some of Bob Marley’s and get down to business. It always takes my mind off what I’m doing and makes me a happier person. The same is true for classicrock. One summer, I did a boring job collecting bottle openers by hand. Without a radio playing classic rock in the background, I would have hated life.Listening to music with relaxing rhythms and a positive message helps you forget your work and think happy thoughts. But the results you see will depend heavily on your personal tastes. Experiment with the types of music you listen to during certain tasks. By trial and error you’ll finally discover your best choice. I’m always looking for new concentration aids, so I’d l ove to know what type of music works best for me.10. We can infer that the passage was written in ________.A. 2005B. 2006C. 2010D. 200811. The author first discovered the effects of music ________.A. from his parentsB. by chanceC. at workD. when he was a child12. The author mentions the experience of collecting bottle openers in Paragraph 3 to________.A. tell us that life is dullB. prove that music affects moodC. tell us how to seek happinessD. tell us bad mood can affect work13. In order to get the greatest effect of music, you are advised to ________.A. listen to some of Bob Marley’sB. only choose relaxing musicC. test all kinds of musicD. listen to classic rockDI was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday. The advertisement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theatre box in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00. Since I work from 9:00 to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theatre was during my 45-minute lunch break. Unfortunately, the theatre is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky you can make the round trip in 45 minutes. Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for the bus. By the time I saw one come around the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip. So I gave up and went back to the office. The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again the next day. On Thursday, my luck changed. I got on a bus right away and arrived atthe theatre in exactly twenty minutes. When I got there , however, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour. Realising I would not have enough time to wait in line, I caught the next bus and headed back across the town. By Friday I realised my only hope was to make the trip by taxi, it was expensive, but I felt it would be worth it to hear the concert. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. The reason, however, I quickly discovered, was that they had already sold out all the tickets.14. The man learned _______ that there would be a concert last Friday.A. from his friendsB. from one of his workmatesC. over the radioD. from the newspaper15. He tried to go to the theatre every day but ma-naged to get there only ______.A. onceB. twiceC. three timesD. four times16. One day the man took ______ to get to the thea-tre by bus.A. forty-five minutesB. fifteen minutesC. just twenty minutesD. over an hour17.

The level of public interest in Obama's tie might seem strange but many people believe his choice will symbolize the type of government he plans to run, as the color of a politician's tie is thought to convey ideas of power, trustworthiness and more.Policies of tiesIt may be the least practical item of male dress, but it is arguably the most expressive. In the UK and many other countries around the world, conservative (保守的 ) politicians may wear a blue tie and their liberal opponents a red one. In America, the colors go the other way round. The Republicans have in recent years become associated with the color red, and the Democrats with blue. But in spite of this, Bush wears blue ties more often than any other color.What they meanAccording to Sharon Haver, editor of focusonstyle. com, in America the feelings associated with colors overrule their political significance. “A guy who wants to be regarded as strong and in charge would wear red,” Haver says. Unsurprisingly,the business tycoon Donald Trump is known for wearing red ties. But what about blue?According to Haver,“Blue is a softer color…Look at the sky. It's peaceful and calm and trustworthy.”Selecting the right tie for the right occasion●Perfect job interview tiePerhaps no other tie­wearing occasion is as important as the job interview. Gilchrist, the fashion expert, advises playing it safe and choosing a conservative one. Best choices are solids, stripes or small patterns. An excellent color is burgundy(深红色) or another serious color. Avoid pink or yellow, which suggests that the wearer lacks gravity.Pattern ties, Gilchrist suggests, should be limited to a maximum of three colors. A striped tie is a safe choice as this is acceptable to everyone. Last,Gilchrist recommends saving the expensive “hip” tie for those applying for glamorous creative jobs.●Date­night tieWhen picking out the right tie for taking a girl out on a date, spend more time considering color than pattern. According to studies, women are attracted to men wearing the color blue, because blue gives the image of a “stable, faithful,constant, always there” person. So what is the worst color to wear on a date?“ Flattened caterpillar (毛虫) yellow­green,” according to Gilchrist,“ it will repel both sexes equally.”31.Why are people interested in the tie that Obama wore to the inauguration?A.Because they think the tie he wore will enable them to know about his personalities and policies.B.Because they want to advise him how to select an appropriate tie for such a big occasion.C.Because they think the tie will tell if he is trustworthy as they expected when he assumes office.D.Because they believe the tie is an essential part of dressing to a mature politician like Obama.32.What can we infer about Bush, the former president, from the passage?A.He was probably liberal in his policies when he was in power.B.He was a Republican when he served as president.C.He wore only blue ties and had no ties of alternative colors.D.He wanted to make himself unique by the tie that he wore.33.The example of “the business tycoon Donald Trump” is given to ________.A.prove that color reflects people's feelings to a certain degreeB.show that Donald is so wealthy that he can afford expensive tiesC.tell that Donald is physically strong and can handle everythingD.explain that red is a popular color, especially with businessmen34.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A.Ties can be ignored by politicians since they are the least practical item of male dress.B.Do choose ties carefully before dating, because it is the most important occasion.C.Why to avoid pink or yellow ties in job interviews is that they don't match the atmosphere.D.The more colorful the tie is, the more likely you'll get the job you want.BWelcome to Banff, Canada’ s first, most famous and arguably most fascinating national park. If you’ve come to ski or snowboard, we’ll see you on the slopes. Skiing is a locals’ favourite too.While you’ re here, try other recreational activities available in our mountains. Popular choices include a Banff Gondola ride up Sulphur Mountain, bathe in the naturalmineral waters at the Upper Hot Spring, horse drawn sleigh ride, drive yourown team dog sled excursion, and snowmobile tour to the highland (but not in the national park).We also recommend you make time to enjoy simple pleasures. After looking around Banff Ave shops, walk a couple of blocks west or south to the scenic Bow River.Try ice skating on frozen Lake Louise where Ice Magic International Ice Sculpture Competition works are displayed after Jan 25. You can rent skates in Banff or at the sport shop in the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise hotel.Banff’ s backcountry paths access a wilderness world of silence and matchless beauty — cross country skis and snowshoes provide the means. Banff sport shops rent equipment and clothes, or join an organized tour. Although we’ve been many times, we still find the cliffs and icefalls of our frozen canyons worth visiting.Wildlife watching also creates satisfying memories. We have seen hundreds of the elk and bighorn sheep that attract visitors, yet they still arouse a sense of wonder.And the rare spotting of a cougar, wolf or woodland caribou takes our breath away.See if simple pleasures work for you. Fight in the snow with your kids, walk bdside a stream or climb to a high place and admire the view.—Banff Resort Guide Editors36.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Dogsledding is the most popular sport among local people.B. Watching wildlife is a memorable experience.C. Travellers should bring their own sports equipment.D. Shopping is too simple a pleasure to enjoy.37.The purpose of the writing is to________.A. promote scenic spots in CanadaB. advertise for the sports in BanffC. introduce tourist activities in BanffD. describe breathtaking views in BanffCIt’s not easy being a teenager(13至19岁青少年)—nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you’ll still be there for him when he needs you.Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving, consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’ t insist he tell you what’ s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ ll clam_up. Instead, let him attempt to solve (解决) things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’ s privacy (隐私). Never read his mail or listen in on personal conversations.Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family ’ s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for 15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation (节制). Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a parttime job.38.The main purpose of the text is to tell parents ________.A. how to get along with a teenagerB. how to respect a teenagerC. how to understand a teenagerD. how to help a teenager grow up39. What does the phrase “clam up” in Paragraph 2 probably mean ?A. become excitedB. show respectC. refuse to talkD. seek help40.What should parents do in raising a teenager according to the text?A. Not allow him to learn driving or take drugs.B. Give him advice only when necessary.C. Let him have his own telephone.D. Not talk about personal things with him.第二节写作(满分30分)假设你是新华中学的学生李华,你和在上海上学的英国朋友Tom约好下周末去北京旅游,但你因故不能赴约。
