AIn early autumn I applied for admission to college. I wanted to go nowhere but to Cornell University, but my mother fought strongly against it. When she saw me studying a photograph of my father on the sports ground of Cornell, she tore it up.“You can’t say it’s not a great university, just because Papa went there.”“That’s not it at all. And it is a top university.” She was still holding the pieces in her hand. “But we can’t afford to send you to college.”“I wouldn’t dream of asking you for money. Do you want me to get a job to help support you and Papa? Things aren’t that bad, are they?”“No,” she said. “I don’t expect you to help support us.”Father borrowed money form his rich cousins to start a small jewellery shop, His chief customers were his old college friends. To get new customers, my mother had to help. She picked up a long-forgotten membership in the local league of women, so that she could get to know more people. Whether those people would turn into customers was another question. I knew that my Parents had to wait for quite a long time before their small investment could show returns.

All we assume (猜测) is that some early men invented certain sounds, in one way or another, to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could talk with each other. Later they agreed upon certain signs called letters, which could be put together to show those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, are called words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations—the things they bring up to our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings. This clever use of words is what we call literary style (文体). Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can express his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them correctly, or they will make our speech silly and common.9. We learn from the text that language might have begun with _______.A. expressionsB. actionsC. signsD. sounds10. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?A. The learning of new words.B. The importance of old words.C. The relation of human experience with words.D. The gradual change and development of words.11. In the last paragraph, what does the author suggest that we should do?A. Use words skillfully.B. Make musical speeches.C. Learn poems by heart.D. Associate with listeners.DMany people believe Henry Ford invented the automobile (汽车). But Henry Ford did not start to build his first car until 1896. That was eleven years after two Germans developed the world's first automobile. Many people believe Henry Ford invented the production line that moved a car's parts to the worker, instead of making the work er move to the parts. That is not true, either. Many factory owners used methods of this kind before Ford. What Henry Ford did was to use other people's ideas and make them better. And he made the whole factory a moving production line.In the early days of the automobile, almost every car maker raced his cars. It was the best way of gaining public notice. Henry Ford decided to build a racing car. Ford's most famous race was his first one. It was also the last race in which he drove the car himself.The race was in 1901, at a field near Detroit. All of the most famous cars had entered, but only two were left: the Winton and Ford's. The Winton was famous for its speed. Most people thought the race was over before it began.The Winton took an early lead. But halfway through the race, it began to lose power. Ford started to gain. And near the end of the race, he took the lead. Ford won the race and defeated the Winton. His name appeared in newspapers and he becamewell-known all over the United States. Within weeks of the race, Henry Ford formed a new automobile company. In 1903, a doctor in Detroit bought the first car from the company. That sale was the beginning of Henry Ford's dream. Ford said: "I will build a motor car for the great mass of people. It will be large enough for the family, but small enough for one person to operate and care for. It will be built of the best materials. It will be built by the best men to be employed. And it will be built with the simplest plans that modern engineering can produce. It will be so low in price that no man making good money will be unable to own one."The Model T was a car of that kind. It only cost $850. It was a simple machine that drivers could depend on. Doctors bought the Model T. So did farmers. Even criminals. They considered it the fastest and surest form of transportation. Americans lovedthe Model T. They wrote stories and songs about it. Thousands of Model T's were built in the first few years.12.What do we know about Henry Ford from Paragraph 1?A. He made good use of ideas from others.B. He produced the first car in the world.C. He knew how to improve auto parts.D. He invented the production line.13.Why did Henry Ford take part in the 1901 car race?A. To show off his driving skills.B. To draw public attention.C. To learn about new technology.D. To raise money for his new company.14.“That sale” in Paragrap h 4 refers to .A. the selling of Ford cars at reduced pricesB. the sale of Model T tothe mass of peopleC. he selling of a car to a Detroit doctorD. the sales target for the Ford Company15.What was Henry Ford's dream according to the text?A. Producing cars for average customers.B. Building racing cars of simple design.C. Designing more car models.D. Starting more companies.第二节（共5题；每小题2分，满分10分）Many people think of guys as being carefree when it comes to their appearance.But in fact, a lot of guys spend plenty of time in front of the mirror.

AIt’s summer movie time again. Check out our list of four films.Harry Potter and the Prisoner of AzkabanRelease Date: November 4Story: It’s the summer before Harry Potter’s third year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. A dangerous murderer, Sirius Black, has escaped from the Wizards’ Prison. And he was ordered to kill Harr y Potter.Around the World in 80 DaysRelease Date: November 16Story: This version of the classic novel set in 1872 focuses on Passepartout ( Hong Kong actor Jackie Chan), a Chinese thief who seeks refuge (庇护) with a strange London adventurer, Phileas Fogg. Passepartout uses his martial art skills(军事技能) to defend Fogg from danger as he travels around the world in 80 days.Spider-Man 2Release Date: November 30Story: Peter Parker is still coming to accept his dual identity (双重身份) as the crime superhero Spider-Man. He wants to reveal his secret identity to Mary Jane, meanwhile, his Aunt May is in trouble. This is Dr Otto Octavius who has appeared to bring her a lot of troubles.King ArthurRelease Date: November 7Story: King Arthur is presented as a clever ruler who manages to unite all the knights in Britain. Under the guidance of Merlin and the beautiful, brave Guinevere, Arthur will struggle to realize his dreams.1. When can you see the film acted by Jackie Chan?A. November 4B. November 30C. November 16.D. November 7.2. In Spider-Man 2, Aunt May’s trouble is caused by______.A. Spider-ManB. Peter ParkerC. Mary JaneD. Dr Otto Octavius3. What kind of article of this passage?A. A news reportB. A funny diary.C. An advertisement.D. A composition.BAn African proverb says that a single hand cannot tie a bundle. Everyone needs companions to help them sail through the rough seas of life. Even the strongest and richest person still needs friends. Our money and strength would have no value if we had no friends to share with us. The best friendship is a give-and-take relationship. We need the support of our family, friends and the community. In turn we also give support to the society, our friends and our family.The word “friend” has many meanings. It could be the bus driver who takes you to and from work every day. It could be a parent, a colleague, a wife or husband, a brother or sister, or even the unknown person who helped you just once when you could not find your way. Real friends share not only our happiness but our sorrows as well. This may explain why we have the expression “a friend in need is a friend indeed”.Friendship is like the sunshine that keeps us warm. It is like the refreshing raindrops on the fields that give the farmers hope of a good planting season. Without friends our life would be like a desert where our only friend would be loneliness and sadness. The most fortunate person is the one who has friends from all levels in the society. A driver might find friends not only among his colleagues but among farmers, bankers, traders, students, politicians or teachers. We should never forget our old friends when we make new ones. We should treasure each of our friends whether poor or rich, beautiful or not. Each friend is unique in his or her own way. And alltogether, they enrich life and make it very colourful.4. What is the main topic of the passage?A. How to sail through the sea of life.B. Friends and friendship.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. Never forget old friends when making new ones.5. What is the correct understanding of friends according to the writer?A. Friends who share our happiness are not real friends.B. Friends will take us through rough seas.C. Friends never expect anything from others.D. Friends can be different people around us.6. An unknown person can be a friend as well when .A. he helps you with what you needB. he is told how to find his wayC. he becomes one of your familyD. he is a driver taking you from and to work7. The underlined word “unique” in the last paragraph most probably means “”.A. specialB. poorC. richD. valuableCMore than 2.25 billion cups of coffee are consumed across the globe each day, and it’s likely that many taste bitter.Now, a new study suggests that coffee fans can make their drink taste sweeter by simply changing the colour of their cups.Scientists claim that blue and glass mugs, which are popular in some coffee shops, can reduce coffee’s bitterness, without any need for sugar, and that coffee drunk from white cups tastes the bitterest.To prove their claims, the researchers invited 36 volunteers and used three different colored cups -- blue, white and transparent glass -- to do an experiment.In the experiment, coffee consumed from the white cup was found to taste less sweet when compared to the other two colored cups, while the blue cup made the coffee taste the sweetest.The scientists believe that the colour brown may be associated with coffee’s bitterness because coffee in a white cup appears the brownest and tastes the bitterest. “Our study clearly shows that the colour of a coffee cup does influence the perceived (感受到的) taste and flavor of coffe e,” said Dr George Doorn of Federation University Australia, “but the potential effects may be different between a one-time purchase and a return customer.”“Anyhow, the effect of the colour of the cup on the flavor of the coffee suggests that café owners, baristas (服务员), as well as coffee cup manufacturers should carefully consider the colour of their cups, ” he added.However, the idea that colour can alter the taste of food and drink is not new.A study published last year revealed that red, strawberry-flavored mousse (慕斯蛋糕) served on a white plate was rated as 10 percent sweeter and 15 percent more flavorous than the same food presented on a black plate.8. What color of the cup can best reduce coffee’s bitterness without adding sugar?A. Blue.B. Brown.C. White.D. Transparent.9. The scientists used ________ to do the experiment to prove their claims.① different brands of coffee ② different colored coffee cups③ several volunteers ④ several manufacturesA. ① ②B. ② ③C. ② ④D. ③ ④10. Why does coffee in white cups taste the least sweet?A. Because white cups are not as beautiful as other cups.B. Because white cups make coffee appear the brownest.C. Because white cups reduce the sugar in them.D. Because white cups are better used to serve cakes.11. According to the article, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Black plates increase the sweetness of food and drink.B. Strawberry-flavored mousse is 10 percent sweeter than coffee.C. People consume more than 2.5 billion cups of coffee across the globe every year.D. People can make coffee taste sweeter by changing the color of their coffee cups.DPeter, a high school student, was pretty busy with school, and he was on the soccer team. High school was hard, because everyone wanted to have nice clothes, hang out, drive cars, and all these cost money. Peter’s father was the sort of guy that believed you had to ear n whatever you got, so he wasn’t just about to hand over lots of money for Peter to use to have fun. So, he had to get a job.During his freshman year summer vacation, his classmate got him a job working on a hay (干草) farm. He threw hay up into wagons as the tractor drove around fields, and then they stacked (剁起) it in the hot barn.（干草棚） It was a hot, low paying job.He once worked a few nights a week at a grocer y store. He put things on the shelf. It was a lot of lifting and carrying, and his arms were strong from this and the previous job. It was dull and didn’t pay much.He took some time off when soccer got serious, but the following summer he tried working at a lumber（废旧家具）yard. It was hot outside, but he got a lot of exercise lifting and carrying things like boards and dry wall. He also learned a lot about building supplies. It still didn’t pay well.From there, he spent a year doing some tutoring for a friend of the family, but that was piecemeal. His first real job came the last year at school, when he fixed registers and worked on computers at a big box store. It was his favorite job yet, but it still didn’t pay well.What Peter realized with all of these jobs was that he needed a better paying job! The only way to get that was to get trained or educated. He could go to school and ge t a 2year degree in an office or technical position. His other choices were going to a 4year college or joining the army. He wasn’t sure what he was going to do yet, but he knew he had to do something. Jobs were a lot of work, money was hard to earn, but he liked staying busy and being able to buy things. Peter wanted the most out of life, and that meant education.12. How many jobs had Peter taken?A. ThreeB. FourC. FiveD. Six13.All the jobs Peter had taken had one thing in common:________.A. They were done during his vacationB. They were dull and tiresomeC. They needed hard labourD. They didn’t pay well14. ________was the most important for Peter if he wanted a good job.A. ConfidenceB. EducationC. OpportunityD. Wisdom15. We can learn from the text that________.A. Peter knew what to do for his futureB.

Three years later, she launched the Pixie Project —a nonprofit project that offers free and low-cost treatment of animal diseases and injuries and rescues pets from overloaded shelters across the country —and 100 percent of Fetch's profits now benefit the charity.

The furs are used by injured creatures that need to feel cozy and comforted. More than 1,000 pounds of furs have already made their way to animals in need throughout the U.S.Tel:011-5952-544021．Through Grounds & Hounds, how can you help animals?A．By getting a pet.

D．It works together with animal shelters.24．The passage mainly wants to show the readers________.A．how to profit from animalsB．the three ways to show love to animalsC．the success they have gotD．how kind they are to animalsBI’m fond of EHS because English is my favorite subject. Though that sounds like the beginning paragraph of a suck-up(奉承者), it’s true. I love reading and writing, and while I may not be the best at it, certainly try my hardest. I intend to run for EHS Vice President, along with Jordan Pincus, because I feel that’s the best position for me in this Honor Society. I want to be able to share my own ideas on how to better improve EHS without being the absolute top, and what better position for that than Vice President.I feel I’m qualified for this position because I’m full of great ideas and love English. I actually get English, and get along very well with others, which is very important for a board member. As a team, Jordan and I work very well together. Despite some disagreeing from time to time, the two of us actually end up getting more done at a faster pace, and because we spend most of our time together, communication issues are not a problem. Nothing is better for Vice Presidents than to have two people who are always together. On top of that, we are both devoted to anything we start, so EHS will never be ignored by either of us.I will contribute all I can to EHS, whether in making sure meetings run smoothly or finding new projects/events for the club to do as a whole. I personally believe that I am fit for the job and will be able to perform tasks above the highest exceptions placed on me, which may sound a little prejudiced but I really think I'm fit for this! Thank you for reading this and taking me into account.25．Why does the author want to be EHS Vice President?A．He is very good at English. B．He has a talent for leadership.C．He is very willing to help others. D．He thinks he is fit for the position.26．What does the author mainly tell us in Paragraph 2?A．The author and Jordan can cooperate well.B．The author and Jordan are good friends.C．Jordan often quarrels with the author.D．Communication is very important for friends.27．What does “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．Being EHS Vice President. B．Being always together.C．Communicating with each other. D．Having good ideas.28．What can we know about EHS?A．It is shor t for “Honor Society”.B．It is a club related to English.C．It can improve the students’ results.D．It often organizes some activities.CBiologists from Boise State University have been making noise in the forests of the western American state of Idaho. They are making noise to study the value of quiet in nature. They want to know how people and animals react to noise pollution.The researchers placed outdoor speakers on the side of a half-kilometer-long part of a road in the Boise National Forest. For two years, they played the sounds of passing cars through the speakers.Professor Jesse says they found the sounds caused migratory （迁徙的）birds to flee. The birds also failed to gain weight.Recently, researchers played sounds of machines that are used to remove natural gas from the ground. That sound is heard in natural gas fields throughout the American West. Professor Barber says these experiments are designed to help researchers learn the effects of noise pollution on birds, insects, bats, and people."We are testing the idea that these things are coupled -- that as the soundscape gets louder, wildlife suffers. But that also feeds back on to how much people get out of that experience, how much they value it, and thus how much they are willing to protect that same place."The research team also studied a group of volunteers who watch birds for fun. Mitch Levenhagen is a graduate student in the research team. He measured how much the artificial noise lessened the ability of the birdwatchers to recognize recorded bird songs.The birdwatchers said the artificial noise affected their ability to recognize bird sounds more than they thought it would. Birdwatcher Jim Lyons said the experiment caused him to value quiet more."I moved out of the city to a little place in the country where I wanted it to be quiet. I greatly value that. It is hard to find those places more and more. There are lots of ways to mitigate（减轻）sound. But it is trade-off. There is always a cost. And it comes down to people's values. What do we value more." said V olunteer Janice Engle.29．What is the purpose of carrying out the research?A．To prevent people making any noise in their daily life.B．To find out the effect noise has on humans and animals.C．To call on many more people to protect the environment.D．To encourage people to keep quiet while they are in nature.30．By playing sounds of machines, the researchers try to make the findings ________.A．impressive B．unique C．instructive D．convincing31．What have some volunteers realized after the experiment?A．The great importance of quiet in nature.B．The big price humans will pay for health.C．The great value of a sharp sense of hearing.D．The necessity of protecting wildlife in nature.DJeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Richard Branson have a combined net worth of 400 billion, roughly the size of the GDP of the entire nation of Ireland. And all three men have decided to put vast sums of their wealth into chasing their space travel dreams, creating a modern space race in which ultra — rich men — rather than countries — shoot for the stars.But why the three billionaires choose the crazy plan? Just for the travel dreams? It’s not that simple.As we all know, the space travel is a mirror of comprehensive national strength, whether it’s the cold war or the present. The first space race spanned multiple presidents and premiers —Kennedy, Krushchev, Brezhnev, Nixon. It made heroes of astronauts and cosmonauts, and it focused national prides. But obviously, this year’s race between the billionaires feat ures none of that national pride or opposing ideas. It’s tax — averse tycoons (大亨) who want to sell high — priced tickets to rich people interested in experiencing weightlessness. Amazon’s Bezos has said he is funding his portion by sellingoff large chunks of his Amazon stock (股票) — 1 billion or more a year.What are the odds? If anyone is taking bets on how this will end, and who will have the more profitable space tourism business, consider Amazon’s method of making very little profit in order to eat up competition. So, from this point of view, what’s hiding behind this crazy race is business. As a method of expand influence, it is not a bad idea.Richard Branson has carried out his plan on July 12, and Jeff Bezos announced that he will start his space tr avel on July 20. Bezos is getting some good press because he’s taking Wally Funk along for the ride. She’s the pilot now in her 80s who was kept out of space in the 1960s because she’s a woman. This may be a bonus for him. As for Musk, he thinks these two above are not real space trips, he wants a larger move.Who will win the race in the end? Let’s wait and see.32．Which of the following people might be the potential client of the space travel?A．Daisy aged 45 with a heavy debt.B．Clarkson who doesn’t enjo y taking risks.C．Billy aged 60 with an ample retirement pension.D．Alexander who knows nothing about space travel.33．What stopped Wally Funk flying to space in the 1960s?A．Age. B．Gender. C．Height. D．Weight34．What does the author think of the billionaires race?A．Profit — driven. B．Meaningless. C．Foolish. D．Generous.35．What does the underlined word “spanned” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Revolved. B．Turned down. C．Entered. D．Included.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项中有两项为多余选项。

AIn early autumn I applied for admission to college. I wanted to go nowhere but to Cornell University, but my mother fought strongly against it. When she saw me studying a photograph of my father on the sports ground of Cornell, she tore it up.“You can’t say it’s not a great university, just because Papa went there.”“That’s not it at all. And it is a top university.” She was still holding the pieces in her hand. “But we can’t afford to send you to college.”“I wouldn’t dream of asking you for money. Do you want me to get a job to help support you and Papa? Things aren’t that bad, are they?”“No,” she said. “I don’t expect you to help support us.”Father borrowed money form his rich cousins to start a small jewellery shop, His chief customers were his old college friends. To get new customers, my mother had to help. She picked up a long-forgotten membership in the local league of women, so that she could get to know more people. Whether those people would turn into customers was another question. I knew that my Parents had to wait for quite a long time before their small investment could show returns. What’s more , they had not wanted enough to be rich and successful ;otherwise they could not possibly have managed their lives so badly.I was torn between the desire to help them and change their lives, and the determination not to repeat their mistakes.

All we assume (猜测) is that some early men invented certain sounds, in one way or another, to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could talk with each other. Later they agreed upon certain signs called letters, which could be put together to show those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, are called words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations—the things they bring up to our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings. This clever use of words is what we call literary style (文体). Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can express his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them correctly, or they will make our speech silly and common.9. We learn from the text that language might have begun with _______.A. expressionsB. actionsC. signsD. sounds10. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?A. The learning of new words.B. The importance of old words.C. The relation of human experience with words.D. The gradual change and development of words.11. In the last paragraph, what does the author suggest that we should do?A. Use words skillfully.B. Make musical speeches.C. Learn poems by heart.D. Associate with listeners.DMany people believe Henry Ford invented the automobile (汽车). But Henry Ford did not start to build his first car until 1896. That was eleven years after two Germans developed the world's first automobile. Many people believe Henry Ford invented the production line that moved a car's parts to the worker, instead of making the work er move to the parts. That is not true, either. Many factory owners used methods of this kind before Ford. What Henry Ford did was to use other people's ideas and make them better. And he made the whole factory a moving production line.In the early days of the automobile, almost every car maker raced his cars. It was the best wayof gaining public notice. Henry Ford decided to build a racing car. Ford's most famous race was his first one. It was also the last race in which he drove the car himself.The race was in 1901, at a field near Detroit. All of the most famous cars had entered, but only two were left: the Winton and Ford's. The Winton was famous for its speed. Most people thought the race was over before it began.The Winton took an early lead. But halfway through the race, it began to lose power. Ford started to gain. And near the end of the race, he took the lead. Ford won the race and defeated the Winton. His name appeared in newspapers and he became well-known all over the United States. Within weeks of the race, Henry Ford formed a new automobile company. In 1903, a doctor in Detroit bought the first car from the company. That sale was the beginning of Henry Ford's dream. Ford said: "I will build a motor car for the great mass of people. It will be large enough for the family, but small enough for one person to operate and care for. It will be built of the best materials. It will be built by the best men to be employed. And it will be built with the simplest plans that modern engineering can produce. It will be so low in price that no man making good money will be unable to own one."The Model T was a car of that kind. It only cost $850. It was a simple machine that drivers could depend on. Doctors bought the Model T. So did farmers. Even criminals. They considered it the fastest and surest form of transportation. Americans loved the Model T. They wrote stories and songs about it. Thousands of Model T's were built in the first few years.12.What do we know about Henry Ford from Paragraph 1?A. He made good use of ideas from others.B. He produced the first car in the world.C. He knew how to improve auto parts.D. He invented the production line.13.Why did Henry Ford take part in the 1901 car race?A. To show off his driving skills.B. To draw public attention.C. To learn about new technology.D. To raise money for his new company.14.“That sale” in Parag rap h 4 refers to .A. the selling of Ford cars at reduced pricesB. the sale of Model T to the mass of peopleC. he selling of a car to a Detroit doctorD. the sales target for the Ford Company15.What was Henry Ford's dream according to the text?A. Producing cars for average customers.B. Building racing cars of simple design.C. Designing more car models.D. Starting more companies.第二节（共5题；每小题2分，满分10分）Many people think of guys as being carefree when it comes to their appearance. But in fact, a lot of guys spend plenty of time in front of the mirror.

AI paid a visit to Cambridge last January. Though the trip took me 5 hours and it rained the whole day with strong winds there, the town deserved a visit.The bus started at 6:10 a. m. It stopped at 4 airports before we finally arrived, which wasted more time than we expected. Tired with long sitting, one passenger stood up to relax his numbed legs. The driver asked him to sit down but in vain. So he pulled up and said seriously, "Either you get off or sit down. "To him, safety is the first policy.Cambridge consists of nearly thirty colleges. The oldest part of the university was built in the 13th century while the newest was founded in the mid 1960s. The number of the students is so great that many students live in lodgings(出租房)and move into college for their final year.Cambridge is called a university town because there is no clear separation between the university buildings and the rest of the city. The university is not just one part of the town; it is all over the town. The heart of Cambridge has shops, pubs, and supermarkets, but most of it is university-colleges, departments,libraries, clubs and other places for university staff and students. Students fill the shops, cafes, banks and churches, making these as well part of the university.With over 10, 000 undergraduates and postgraduates, the town is a busy place indeed. Students here are not allowed to keep cars. If you happen to be walking in the street during a break, better stop a moment to avoid the boiling sea of bicycles hurrying in all directions, carrying students from one college or lecture room to another.1. The writer believed that the trip took more time because of________A. bad weatherB. unexpected stops of the busC. one passengerD. an accident on the way2. Why is Cambridge called a university town?A. It has 10, 000 undergraduates and postgraduates.B. There are nearly thirty colleges in the town.C. All the students and staff live in the town.D. The university and town are fully combined.3. It can be inferred that most Cambridge students take________ as their first means of transport.A. boatsB. carsC. bicyclesD. busesBWhen I was a b aby, I entertained you and made you laugh. Whenever I was “bad”, you'd shake your finger at me and ask, “How could you?”--but then you'd give up, and roll me over for a belly scratch and I believed that life could not be any more perfect.My housetraining was a long process, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. We went for long walks, runs in the park and car rides. We stopped for ice cream. I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.Gradually, you began spending more time at work and on your career, and more time searching for a human mate. Eventually, you fell in love. She, now your wife, is not a dog person, but I still welcomed her into our home. I was happy because you were happy. Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement, I was fascinated by their pinkness, how they smelled, and I wanted to mother them too. Your wife was afraid I would bite them. But nevertheless, as they began to grow, I became their friend.Now, you have a new job in another city and you and they will be moving to an apartment that does not allow pets. You've made the right decision for your “family”, but there was a time when I was your only family.I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the dog pound. It smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness. You filled out the paperwork and said, “I know you will find a good home for her.” They shrugged and gave you a pained look. The children were in tears as they waved me goodbye. And “How could you?” were the only three words that swept over my mind.Is it better to live with hope or without hope? At first, whenever anyone passed my pen (围栏), I rushed to the front, hoping it was you, that you had changed your mind and that this was all a bad dream.My beloved master, I will think of you and wait for you forever. I hope you receive more faithfulness from your family than you showed to me.4. Who tells this story?A. A dog.B. Achild. C. A dog's owner. D.A dog trainer5. Why did the dog's owner take his dog to the pound?A. He had a newborn baby.B. His wife did not like the dog.C. He was moving into a new building.D. He thought the dog too troublesome.6.Which is true about the dog when it lived at the pound?A. It hoped to be adopted by another family.B. It continued to love its former owner.C. It did not trust humans any more.D. It was excited about the pound.7.What is the theme of the story?A. Be ready forchanges. B. Never expect too much.C. Never complain about your life.D. Be faithful to those who love you.CWhen I was young I wanted to be a model，so when a national contest was staged，I convinced my parents to take me for an audition(试演). I was selected and told I had potential．They said that for only $900 I could attend a weekend event which dozens of the most prestigious(有声望的)modeling agencies from around the world would attend．At l 3，my hopes of fame and fortune clouded all judgment and I begged my parents to let me go．We have never been rich，but they saw my enthusiasm and agreed．I imagined being signed by some famous model companies．For months，any boredom or disappointment I faced was pushed aside because I knew I would soon have the chance to be a real model．I thought I would grace the covers of famous magazines!Of course，I wasn’t signed，but what hurt the most was being told that if I grew to 5'9”(about 1．75metres)I could be a success．I prayed for a growth spurt(冲刺)because I could not imagine giving up my dream．I made an appointment with a local modeling agency and the agent demanded $500 for classes．$500 for a photo shoot and $300 for other expenses．My parents only agreed after hours and hours of me begging．The agency sent me out on a few auditions，but with every day I didn’t receive a call，I grew more depressed．The final straw came in July after I had decided to focus on commercial modeling．There was an open call in New York City．We spent hours driving and another few hours waiting, only to be told that I was too short．I was devastated(感到难以承受的)．Years later，I realized that the trip to New York was good as it made me notice I d idn’t actually love modeling，just the idea of it．I wanted to be special and I was innocently determined to reach an impossible goal．The experience has made me stronger and that will help me in the future．8．What’s the main reason why the author wanted to b e a model?A．She won a national contest． B．She wanted to get reputation and wealth．C．She was urged by some modeling agencies． D．She had full potential to be a successful model．9．What was it that made the author end her attempt to become a model?A．Her parents were strongly against it． B．She realized that it was impossible for her．C．Even a local modeling agency turned her down． D．She didn’t actually love the idea of modeling．10．The underlined phrase ‘'The final straw” probab ly means __________ . A．the refusal in spite of her long hours of waiting and workingB．the final result that she was admired by the model companyC．the final audition given by the famous agencyD．the decision she made at last not to be a model11．What did the author learn from her experience of struggling to be a model? A．Where there’s a will，there’s a way． B．Being a model is not that easy．C．We should have our own judgment and should not just follow others．D．We might set unpractical goals but the experiences really help us grow．DCanyonlands National Park is a famous tourist attraction in Utah where visitorscan see arches (拱门) and other beautiful rock formations.Canyonlands National Park is a wild, lonely area of rocks, rivers and desert plants. Only Native Americans, cowboys, and explorers entered this area before the park was set up in 1964. Even today, it is difficult to walk or ride through the park. The roads are still made of dirt. Driving requires a special vehicle. The National Park Service says Canyon－lands National Park is wild America.Rivers created the area as they cut rocks into many different formations. At the center of the park are two deep canyons carved by the Green and Colorado Rivers. Three areas that surround these rivers are included in the park.One of these areas is called the Maze District. This area includes rock art made by people who lived there more than 2,000 years ago. Yet many people today cannot see the Maze District because it is so difficult to reach. The area is one of the loneliest and wildest areas in the United States.Another area of the park is called the Needles. It includes long, thin, red and white rocks that reach high into the air like fingers on a hand.A good way to see all the areas of Canyonlands National Park is to fly over it.A one hour trip in a small airplane makes it possible to see the park's red rocks, arches and flat areas where ancient Indian people once lived.From high in the air, visitors can clearly see the third area of the park--a high broad flat rock known as the Island in the Sky. The island was formed between the two rivers.Another interesting formation is called the Upheaval Dome. This is a huge hole about four hundred and fifty meters deep and one point five kilometers wide. It is considered to be the most unusual geological (地质的) structure in the area. 12．Which of the following statements describes Canyonlands National Park correctly? A．No vehicle is available to go through the park. B．The park today still remains as it was in the past.C．There is no access for people to get close to it. D．A variety of wild animals and plants grow in it.13．What do we know about the Maze District?A．No one is allowed to explore the area. B．It is known to the outside world.C．Its rock art dates back over 2,000 years. D．It is the loneliest and wildest place in the US.14．In order to have a good view of the park, you should go sightseeing________. A．by air B．by land C．by water D．on foot 15．Where did ancient Indian people use to live?A．The red rocks. B．The flat areas .C．The Island in the Sky. D．The Upheaval Dome.第二节七选五 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

天水市一中高三英语上学期第三阶段考试试题.doc
（满分：120分时间：100分钟）第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
AListed here are four of the thousands of impressive museums around the world. The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in Bilbao, SpainBuilt in 1997, the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao is one of the newest in the world. It has transformed the industrial city of Bilbao into a traveler's desired destination. The beautiful architecture of the museum has provided a dramatic background for movies and commercials.The Louvre in Paris, FranceProbably the most famous Louvre also holds the most famous painting in the world, the"Mona Lisa"by Leonardo da Vinci. Crowds can be found any day surrounding the small, but mysterious painting of the smiling woman. But, the Louvre is much more than a home to the"Mona Lisa". The Louvre is visited by more people each year than any other museum in the world.The Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, AmericaJust opened in its new downtown location in 2012, the Barnes Foundation is unique in that it is a completely reproduced display from one man's private collection. Dr. Albert C. Barnes started collecting art in the early 20th century and collected, among others, the largest number of original Renoir paintings in the world.The Uffizi Gallery in Florence, ItalyWalking on the marbled floors feels like stepping back in time. The building itself is a beautiful palace-like structure with frescoes(湿壁画)decorating the ceilings and walls. Viewers are bowled over(印象深刻)by the works by Botticelli, such as"The Birth of Venus". Classic artworks from nearly 1,000 years ago describe religious events of the time.1.Which of the following is the most popular ? ______A. The Louvre.B. The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.C. The Barnes Foundation.D. The Uffizi Gallery.2.What makes the Barnes Foundation particular ?______A. Its structure.B. Its collection.C. Its location.D. Its history.3.What type of writing is this text ? ______A. An activity poster.B. An exhibition announcement.C. An art show review.D. A travel guide.BFood serves as a form of communication in two fundamental ways. Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust. Foodcan also have a specific meaning, and play a significant role in a family or culture's celebrations or traditions. The foods we eat and when and how we eat them are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between rural and urban areas within one country.Sharing bread, whether during a special occasion or at the family dinner table, is a common symbol of togetherness. Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests. Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread, so this tradition has its roots in the custom of sharing bread.Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations. In the southern United States, pieces of corn bread represent blocks of gold for prosperity (兴旺) in the New Year. In Greece, people share a special cake called vasilopita. A coin is put into the cake, which signifies success in the New Year for the person who receives it.Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child, and food can play a significant role. In China, when a baby is one month old, families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving red-colored eggs to guests. In many cultures, round foods such as grapes,bread, and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to represent family unity.Nutrition is necessary for life, so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world.4.According to the passage, sharing bread________.A. indicates a lack of foodB. can help to develop unityC. is a custom unique to rural areasD. has its roots in birthday celebrations5.What does the coin in vasilopita signify for its receiver in the New Year ?A. trustB. successC. healthD. togetherness6.The author explains the role of food in celebrations by ________.A. using examplesB. making comparisonsC. analyzing causesD. describing processes7.What is the passage mainly about ?A. The custom of sharing food.B. The specific meaning of food.C. The role of food in ceremonies.D. The importance of food in culture.CAttending college can be expensive, and applying to college can be costly as well. With today's college application fees averaging around $80, you can expect to spend hundreds of dollars on college before you are even accepted into a school.One of the easiest ways to save money on college application fees before you begin applying is to narrow down your list of schools. To save money, try to limit the schools to which you apply to about 2-3 reach schools and 2-3 safety schools.At some schools, being a relative of a graduate can secure you a free application.If you are applying to a school where one of your parents or grandparents is a former graduate, check to see if you're qualified for it.Research the preferred method of applying for each school on your list. Some schools offer free online applications, yet charge a fee for paper submissions(提交). This is because online applications save schools the cost of employing a staff member to physically enter the application information.Several states, such as Michigan and North Carolina, take part in College Application Week, where many schools in the participating states cancel their application fee for the week. Be sure to contact the schools to which you are applying to see if they participate in College Application Week and when the program takes place in that state.Apply for early admission. If you have already decided on which college is your top choice, consider applying under an Early Action or Early Decision admission program. If you are accepted, you won't have to submit application fees to other schools.For more information regarding(关于) college applications and the fees associated with them, contact your high school advisor or the admissions department at your school(s) of interest.8.The passage is mainly written to ______.A. introduce famous universities in the United StalesB. show some practical ways to apply an ideal collegeC. advertise for successful applications and advisorsD. offer tips to save money on college application fees9.What does the author advise to do in the second paragraph?A. Write down your favorite universities.B. Reduce the number of your university choices.C. Apply to two universities each time.D. Mind your safety when applying to college.10.Some schools offer free online application to ______.A. receive fees faster than beforeB. employ someone else to workC. cut down the cost of employmentD. enter the application information11.It can be known from the passage that ______.A. application fee might be canceled conditionallyB. many countries attend College Application WeekC. applying for early admission is the best policyD. admission departments determine your futureDLanguages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系)groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalization and better communicationsin the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution(分布) of these languages is hugely uneven(不均衡的). The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about 1,000; Africa 2 400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数)of speakersis a mere 6,000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of, 6,800 languages are close to extinction, with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150), Lipan Apache in the United States(twoor three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.12.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A. They developed very fast.B. They were large in number.C. They had similar patterns.D. They were closely connected.13.Which of the following best explains "dominant " underlined in paragraph 2 ?A. Complex.B. Advanced.C. Powerful.D. Modern.14.How many languages are spoken by less than 6, 000 people at present ?A. About 6,800B. About 3,400C. About 2,400D. About 1,20015.What is the main idea of the text ?A. New languages will be created.B. People’s lifestyles are reflected in languages.C. Human development results in fewer languages.D. Geography determines language evolution.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
