After examining a nice black one that cost $5, 000, he paid for the pearl in cash, sho ok hands with the jeweler and left.A few days later the man returned and said that his wife like d the pearl so much that she wanted another one just like this. It had to be exactly the same size and quality, as she wanted a pair of earrings made. "Can you give me any advice on ho w to get such a pearl?" said the man. The jeweler regretfully r eplied "I would say it’s absolutely impossible to find one exactl y like that pearl".The rich man insisted that the jeweler advertise in the newsp apers, offering $25,000 for the matching pearl. Many people a nswered the advertisement（广告） but nobody had a pearl that was just right.Just when the jeweler had given up hope, a little old lady cam e into his store. To his great surprise, she pulled the perfect p earl from her purse." "I don’t like to part with it”, she said sadly . “I got it from my mother, and my mother got it from hers.

They c ome and visit some of the most famous places in England: Bi g Ben, the Tower of London and the River Thames.You can see some of the most interesting places in London b y getting on the tour buses. Or you can take a ride on the Lon don Eye. This large wheel slowly takes you 135m above the River Thames.The River Thames is London’s main waterway. It has shaped the capital’s landscape, history and geography. So one of the best ways of making sense of the city is to take a trip along th e river.The clock tower of the House of Parliament, Big Ben, has bec ome one of the main symbols of London. The sound of the bel l, which you can hear at the beginning of many television and radio programmes has become well-known throughout the nation.No visit to London is complete without a look at the Tower of London, in the eastern part of the city. After Big Ben, the Tow er may be London’s most visited tourist spot. Directly south is Tower Bridge, which is more than 100 years old.Among all the palaces in London, Buckingham Palace is the most famous. It has been the main London home of the royal family since Queen Victoria moved there in 1837. You can visi t some of the rooms in August and September. And most mor nings of the year you can watch the soldiers outside changing the guard.About one hour by train out of London is the town of Windsor. Here you can visit another of the Queen’s homes---Windsor Castle. There was a fire in 1992 and many of the roo ms were badly burned. But now they are full of beautiful pictur es, tables and chairs again.Sightseeing in London is great, but it can get very tiring. So, t he best way to start the day is to fill up with an English breakf ast.You can buy an English breakfast in nearly every hotel, and at many restaurants and cafes. An English pub is a good place t o stop for lunch and a drink. You can get hot or cold food and try one of England’s many ales (浓啤酒). Fish and chips are also a traditional English meal. So look out for fish and chip shops in cities as well as by the sea. Or you can sit outside one of the many roadside pubs and caf es in London, and simply watch the busy world go by.27. The underlined word “landscape”(paragraph3) is closest i n meaning to ______.A. sightsB. interestC. growthD. travel28. Which place may be London’s most visited tourist spot?A. The River ThamesB. The Tower of LondonC. Buckingham PalaceD. Big Ben29. If you go to London in December, you will not be able to _ _____.A. visit Windsor CastleB. tour the Buckingham PalaceC. tour the city along the River ThamesD. watch the soldiers outside changing guards30. We can learn from the text that _______________.A. the sound of the Big Ben can be heard everywhereB.

2016-2017学年第二学期高一英语期中考试本试卷共120分,考试时间100分钟。
第Ⅰ卷( 共85分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,共40分)第一节(共15小题,每小题2分,共30分.)AMobile phones are in the hands of many kids and teenagers . However ,are they really necessary at school? Here are the pr os and cons(赞成和反对的理由).PROSThey can get in touch when necessary . The main benefit of h aving a phone is that your child can get in touch with you whe never they need to . This allows you to feel they are safe. They can ring the emergency services if necessary. If your chi ld is in immediate danger, they can use their phone to call not only you but the emergency services. This is of great benefit a nd could potentially save your child’s life.Mobile phones can be turned off or on to silent. As long as yo ur child remembers to do this their phone won’t cause a distra ction(分心) in class, but they will have a way to contact you if they nee d to. Giving them a standard rather than a smartphone will als o reduce the risk of distraction.CONSThe latest smartphones can almost double as a computer . It means they offer far more of a distraction to kids than they us ed to. Nowadays, children can not only text and make calls wi th their mobiles, they can also play games, surf the Internet a nd listen to music. All these features could disturb your child’s concentration if they play with them in class.It could interrupt lessons. Many children, even though they ar e asked to do so, forget to turn off their phones during lessons and their phones may make sounds. This not only annoys ot her pupils but also prevents them from learning.Besides the distraction problem, access to the Internet can al so be used to look up answers and mobile phones have some other functions---a calculator and the ability to save notes. The possibility of chi ldren having access to this information during exams could be too tempting(诱惑人的)for pupils not to take advantage of. 1. We can infer that many parents give their kids phones main ly to_____.A. enrich their school lifeB. make sure they are safeC. improve their performance at schoolD. help them communicate with friends2 To reduce the risk of distraction from phones, which sugges tion is given?A. Parents shouldn’t contact their children in class.B.There should be enough public phones in school.C.Teachers ask students to turn off their phones in class.D.Children use ordinary phones instead of smartphones.3. According to the last paragraph, for students, using mobile phones at school_____.A. has many advantagesB. helps them take notesC. makes cheating easierD. inspires their exploration spiritBFifty-two endangered sea turtles were brought back to good health and returned to the wild earlier this month. Teams of research ers drove the turtles all the way from Massachusetts to Florid a, where they were put back into the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean.The turtles’ story began last fall, when a large number of them got stuck near Cape Cod in . These tough turtles had to be n ursed back to good health for about six months before they co uld swim in the sea again.Sea turtles generally live south of the Carolinas in the Atlantic Ocean. But during the summer months, they take a ride on th e Gulf Stream-----a strong ocean current of warm water that runs north along th e east coast. The Gulf Stream brings the turtles plenty of tasty food to eat.When summer turns to fall, sea turtles head south again as th e water turns colder. That’s because sea turtles are cold-blooded. That means they cannot produce their own body hea t. They need the seawater to provide them with heat.Some turtles don’t get to warmer waters fast enough. When th e waters of the northern Atlantic turn cold in the fall, many turtl es can’t stand the cold. They can not move and become unab le to find their way. The turtles can drift only where the wind a nd tides take them.Many of these turtles are washed up on the shore near Cape Cod. Last year , 242turtles were rescued there.Scientists are unsure why so many needed to be helped. The turtles spent the winter getting better at aquariums along the east coast.As the weather grew warmer, 52 turtles were ready to return t o their natural habitat. It was a great success for the turtles an d the people who nursed them back to health.“It’s an exciting day for all these organizations,” said Connie Merigo of the New England Aquarium.“This is what we work f or. These are endangered species. So every turtle that gets b ack out in the wild and has a potential to contribute to the pop ulation is really important.”4.How do the sea turtles come to the northern Atlantic?A. They are carried there by a strong ocean current.B.Some researchers attract them there to do a study .C.Some fishermen bring them there and set them free.D.They are washed up there by a stream of cold water.5.Sea turtles head south when ____.A. they are tiredB. the temperature dropsC. they have had enough foodD. there is no tasty food for them6.Why are some turtles in need of help?A.They are starving.B.They are freezing.C.They are hurt by other animals.D.They are suffering from a disease.7. What does the underlined word “This” in the last paragra ph refer to?A. The turtles are shown to the public.B.The turtles are studied by scientists.C.Some turtles are returning to the wild.D.Some turtles will be kept in the aquariumCDoctors are known to be terrible pilots. They don’t listen be cause they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical scho ol. I didn’t realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a bette r surgeon(外科医生). I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather, I learned about crew resource management (机组管理资源),or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that cre w members should listen and speak up for a good result, rega rdless of positions.I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that , an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller ha d us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doct or was flying ; I was safety pilot. He was so busy because of t he bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear(起落架) down. He was a better pilot--and my boss ---so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in d anger. I put aside my uneasiness and said,“We need to put th e landing gear down now!” That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I have used it in the operating room ever since.CRM requires that the pilot\surgeon encourage others to sp eak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opp osite, the doctor does not overreact, which might prevent fello w doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I’m in the ope rating room,I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes t hey are not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from “landi ng gear up”.8.What does the author say about doctors in general?A.They are unwilling to take advice.B.They like flying by the mselves.C.They pretend to be good pilots.D.They are quick learne rs of CRM.9.The author deepened his understanding of the power of CR M when____.A.his boss operated on a patientB. he was in charge of a flying taskC. his boss landed the plane too lateD. he saved the plane by speaking up10. In the last paragraph “landing gear up” probably means__ _____.A. following flying requirementsB. making a mistake that may cost livesC.overreacting to difference opinionsD.listening to what fell ow doctors say11 Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.CRM:A New Way to Make Flying SafeB.Flying Makes Me a Better DoctorC.The Making of a Good pilotD. A Pilot--Turned DoctorDJimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has a good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to att end a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he w as supposed to be interviewed,he saw an elderly man wildly k icking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wron g with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand . When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said ther e was no need to pay him;he just helped someone in need, a nd he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said,“We ll, I could take you to the office for your interview. It is the leas t I could do. Please, I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting t o be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease(油迹) on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applic ants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed looks on the ir faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitti ng on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked,“Do you really need to be interviewe d?”Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turn ed out he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I mad e the right decision to have you as part of our workforce befor e you even stepped in this office. I just know you would be a tr ustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well--deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.12.Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?He was bored with his job. B.He was out of work.C.He wanted a higher position.D.He hoped to find a better boss.13.What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?A.An old man’s car broke down.B.A friend’ car had a flat tyr e.C.A wild man was pushing a car.D.A terrible car accident h appened.14Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?A.He was also to be interviewed.B.He need a traveling com panion.C.He was thankful to Jimmy.D.He always helped people i n need.15What can we learn from Jimmy’s experience?A.Where there is a will, there is a way.B.Good is rewarded with good.C.A friend in need is a friend indeed.D.Two heads are better than one.(共5小题,每小题2分,共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.选项中有两项为多余选项.How to improve your EnglishLearning English is a continuous process.

They order clothes and they don‟t fit. People get very unhappy.”Wong and her design partner, Xuaner “Cecilia” Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtua l (虚拟)fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time. Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Kong and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, …The color is wrong‟ or …I got t he right size but it still does not fit.‟ We want to make it like you‟re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang said.Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player, Zhang scans Wong and turns her image(影像) into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong‟s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper‟s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important t o men.”5. Why is shopping conveniently online for clothes a disadv antage?A. Students may easily get addicted to it.B. It causes shoppers to waste too much money.C. It attracts more online clothing shoppers.D. Clothes bought online may not fit.6. Wong and Zhang got the idea to design a virtual fitting room from ____.A. their shopping experiencesB. a program at their universityC. some shop-owners‟ complaintsD. the Xbox 360 video game player7. Which of the following shows the process of using the virtual fitting room?A. scanning -- trying on clothes -- getting imagesB. trying on clothes -- getting models -- scanningC. trying on clothes -- getting images -- scanningD. scanning -- getting models --trying on clothes8. What did Wong think of her virtual fitting room?A. It is perfectly developed.B. It will have its market share(占有率).C. It is limited to women shoppers.D. It is like a kind of video game player.CMy parents moved to Mississippi when my brother and I were small children, and we were separated from our Oklahoma grandparents by some 600 miles. This geographic distance allowed us to only visit our grandparents once a year, either at Christmas or during summer vacation.Most of my classmates lived near their grandparents, and I would routinely hear stories of extended families（大家庭）regularly spending time with one another, fishing at “grandpa‟s” house or going over to “grandma‟s” for her famous fried chicken. We were disappointed that we did not get to spend more time with our grandparents, but our love for them remained deep and strong.We always expected a road trip to Oklahoma. We would count the days, and when Day I came, the entire family would pile into the car at four o‟clock in the morning. Crossing the Mississippi River into Louisiana, the landscapes （风景）changed. Crossing the Red River in Oklahoma, we were in a foreign world.Every trip to see my grandparents can‟t be without bringing delight. We jumped out of the car in their driveway to be met with bear hugs. My grandparents wanted to know everything about their grandchildren, and we would sit for hours and tell story after story. Grandma had a meal planned, and you could bet she fixed her grandsons‟ favorite foods. Of course the best part of the visit was that we were able to do whatever we wanted without punishment from our grandparents. Grandma and Grandpa always had presents for us, neat scenic trips planned and lovely surprises, such as the time we got to go to a local restaurant and eat the world‟s largest hamburger.9. T he family don‟t visit the grandparents often because _________.A. they live far away from each otherB. they seldom have a vacationC. they are all busy with their workD. they have a bad attitude to them10. Whenever the author and his brother met their grandparents, they ________.A. shared cooking skills with each otherB. found they were in a foreign worldC. were all full of great excitementD. seemed not to be familiar with each other11. What can we infer f rom the author‟s story？A. Distance leads to the most beautiful scene.B. Physical separation (实际的分离) hurts the heart deeply.C. Distance can‟t break the bond (纽带) of love.D. Family life is filled with love and understanding.DVacation is a time for refreshment. In work, we are often called to think. Sometimes, it’s good to give our brains a rest. Without a break, we may not be able to perform up to our potential. This can be a problem, not only for the employee, but for the employer as well. “The main benefit of vacation is for the worker to come back energized(有活力的),” says Weaver. “If they haven’t had a break, then they‟re not coming back with new energy. They haven‟t had a chance to step back and get perspective（远景）, and come back with renewed enthusiasm(热情).”Long working hours without a break, insecurity（不安）about one’s job, and other work-related worries can lead to burnout and stress. Humans can usually adapt to pressure, but not for a limitless amount of time.“It is a problem of relating good workers and having them loyal to the firm while they‟re there,” says David Maume, PhD, professor of sociology at the University of Cincinnati. He says burnout can also affect employees‟ productivity, creativity, and effectiveness.In addition, high levels of stress are likely to be precursors (前兆) to depression, which can hit both the employer and employee’s pocketbook. Even people who manager to remain productive at work can have problems. If they’re always at work, then they’re not with their family and friends. If they’re working while on vacation, for the time that they’re on the job, they’re not really present.An unbalanced emphasis on work can strain family and social life. When you come up forair, you may see that you’re alone, or that your r elationships have gone on without you.12. The underlined word “there” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to ________.A. the vacationB. the universityC. the companyD. the home13. What‟s the main benefit of a vacation?A. The worker can step back and get more excitedB. The worker can come back with new energy.C. The worker can adapt to pressure much better.D. The manager can be more creative.14. When a worker is always at work, he is likely to get more and more__________ .A. activeB. energeticC. skillfulD. absent-minded15. Which of the following is the best title of the text?A. Why the workers need new energy.B. How to deal with the daily pressure.C. How to spend the vacation effectively.D. Why the workers need a vacation.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。

Families and friends gather to eat and give thanks fo r their blessing.Thanksgiving Day is really a harvest festival. This is why it is c elebrated in late fall, after the crops are in. But one of the first thanksgivings in America had nothing to do with a good harve st. On December 4, 1619, the Pilgrims from England landed n ear what is now Charles City, Virginia.

The Pilgrims landed at what is now Plymouth, Massachus etts, in 1620. They had a difficult time and the first winter was cruel. Many of the Pilgrims died. But the next year, they had a good harvest. So Governor Bradford declared a three-day feast（盛宴）. The Pilgrims invited Indian friends to join them for their s pecial feast. Everyone brought food.In time, other colonies（殖民地）began to celebrate a day of thanksgiving. But it took years bef ore there was a national Thanksgiving Day. During the Civil War, Sarah Josepha Hale persuade d Abraham Lincoln to do something about it. He proclaimed （宣布）the last Thursday of November 1863 as a day of thanksgiving.

For example, some brides dress in the long white dress that is usual bridal wear in many Western countri es.Every people (民族) has special customs for New Year. The Han people have many interesting Spring Festival customs.

And then five days later, I received the news that I had breast cancer. My mother and I can be competitive, but I was really not trying to 37 with her on this one. I learned a lot being a patient, and one of the surprising things was that only a small part of the cancer experience is about 38 . Most of it is about feelings and faith, losing and 39 your identity, and discovering 40 you never even knew you had. It’s about realizing that the most important things in life are not things at all, 41 relationships. It’s about laughing in the 42 of uncertainty and learning that the way to get out of almost anything is to say: “I 43 cancer.” So the other thing I 44 was that I don’t have to 45 “cancer survivor” as my identity. Sometimes, it feels like people are too crazy 46 it and they start telling us how we’re going to feel. About a week after my operation, we had a houseguest. So at dinner that night,our houseguest said: “You know, Deb, now you’re really going to learn what’s 47 . Yes, you are going to make some big changes in your life, and now you’re going to start 48 about your death. Yep, this cancer is your wake-up call.” Now, these are golden 49 coming from someone who is speaking about their own experience, but when someone is telling you how you are going to feel, it doesn’t 50 . After my treatment, it just felt like everyone was telling me what my 51 was going to mean.It was at that point where I felt like, oh my God, this is just 52 over my life. And that’s when I told myself: Take charge of your experience. Don’t let it 53 you. We all know that the way to deal with this unpleasant experience, with loss, with any life-changing experience, is to find 54 . But here’s the thing: No one can tell us what our experience means. We have to 55 what it means.36.A. where B. that C. what D. which37.A. agree B. struggle C. argue D. compete38.A. medicine B. adventure C. life D. money39.A. receiving B. finding C. defending D. exchanging40.A. strength B. fitness C. energy D. force41.A. and B. so C. but D. for42.A. middle B. front C. face D. course43.A. hate B. have C. dislike D. suffer44.A. thought B. studied C. recognized D. learned45.A. take on B. take off C. take back D. take in46.A. at B. about C. on D. of47.A. terrible B. splendid C. important D. original48.A. debating B. worrying C. quarrelling D. thinking49.A. languages B. rules C. words D. sayings50.A. work out B. pay off C. hold out D. make sense51.A. experience B. puzzle C. loss D. effect52.A. handing B. getting C. taking D. turning53.A. support B. control C. instruct D. blame54.A. difficulty B. truth C. fact D. meaning55. A. decide B. suggest C. respect D. insist第三部分：阅读理解 (共10小题；每小题2分，满分30分)AI’VE learned that you have to take the initiative if you want to get anywhere. If you just let other people decide what is going to happen for you, then all your goals and dreams may never be achieved.Everyone always says that studying abroad in college can change your life. I made the decision to experience it for myself during my junior year. I chose to study in the Dominican Republic. As it got closer to the deadline, an advisor told me I had received a scholarship from an alumni (校友) family foundation (基金).During my first semester in the country I fell in love. I was becoming bilingual (双语的) but also learning so much about a new culture. I had begun working with a local grassroots (草根) organization, taking part in a project supporting an underdeveloped community just outside the city. My main role was to become aware of the issues facing populations such as these and support community education. I was in no way ready to leave this new life. I felt as if I needed more time to get what I wanted.As the next semester began, I realized again that I needed to take a chance. I got involved with a local boarding school for girls living in poverty. I first approached the head of the school to volunteer to teach music classes, asking for money from my college church. I could have never predicted the results of this small action. Another volunteer and I were able to put together a benefit (义演) to show off what th e students had learned. We invited community members, friends and other students from local universities to support the girls. We also sold art that the students themselves had created to increase the funding (资助) of the arts program. I felt good when I left, knowing that I had laid the foundation for a good cause and bettered the lives of young girls.There will always be people that think they know what is best for you, but you ultimately know what you want in life. My time in the Dominican Republic changed my life by giving me the realization of how fortunate I am and the fact that there is always a chance to give back. You have to go after anything and everything you desire or there may be a missedopportunity. My trip to Santo Domingo taught me to take advantage of new possibilities. By Melissa Chapman,Tribune News Service56. The article mainly tells us ______.A. how the author helped poor girls in a local boarding schoolB. that studying abroad gave the author life-changing opportunitiesC. that the author chose to study abroad to follow other people’s examplesD. how the author learned about the issues facing people in the Dominican Republic57. In her first semester in the Dominican Republic, the author ______.A. couldn’t fit in well with the school or life thereB. started a project in an underdeveloped communityC. was unsure if she should stay for another semesterD. became absorbed in a new culture and a new language58. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The author feels pity for people who live in the Dominican Republic.B. The author will live in the Dominican Republic in the future.C. The author is grateful for her experience in Santo Domingo.D. We should accept others’ advice if they think they know what is best for us.BA MAJOR breakthrough that could save many lives could be coming, as a simple blood test from genomics (基因组学) company Illumina could help to detect (发现) cancer early.The company, helped by $100 million (about 658 million yuan) from famous tech founders like Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, aims to find warning signs of any type of cancer before there are any symptoms or tumors (肿瘤), and thus save many lives, according to The Telegraph. The race to invent this type of technology is happening between several scientists. For example, the Cancer Research UK Manchester Institute and the University of Leicester in the UK are both working on similar technologies.Although some blood treatments that show tumors returning or cancer getting worse have been developed, scientists have been trying for some time to find cancer signs in people that otherwise seem healthy. The technology, called “liquid biopsy”, would work by findingparts of DNA that are known to be signs of cancer in the blood as the disease developed.Catching cancer early isn’t always a good thing –some cancers never go on to become dangerous, but treating them ca n have bad side effects. However, Jay Flatley, the Illumina chief executive and chairman of Grail, a company set up by Illumina, told The New York Times that Grail will solve these issues by sequencing (确定……的顺序) the DNA of 30,000 to 50,000 people. It will check how serious their cancers are over time to make the test accurate. The money of a large company like Illumina means that its DNA sequencing technologies are far more accurate than the average ones.At the University of Leicester, researchers such as Professor Jacqui Shaw are also trying to solve the problem by analyzing bits of DNA for errors that are only related to fast-progressing tumors.“We hope today is a turning point in the war on cancer,” said Flatley. “By making it possible for cancer to be detected early in people with no symptoms through a simple blood test, we aim to greatly decrease cancer deaths by finding the disease at a stage when it can be cured.”Last year, a similar test created in London by the Institute of Cancer Research was able to tell if breast cancer was coming back almost eight months before any symptoms were found.59. According to the article, the company Illumina _______.A. has invented a new medicine to cure cancerB. has found a new way to cure cancer of any kindC. is developing a new treatment for breast cancerD. could use a blood test to catch cancer early60. What can be concluded from the article?A. Blood tests still can’t discover signs of cancer returning.B. Only scientists in the UK are making progress in cancer research.C. Finances play an important role in research.D. The “liquid biopsy” technology is the first blood treatment adopted in the historyof cancer research.61. The author wrote the article mainly to ______.A. inform us of a new method of detecting cancerB. call for donations to companies doing medical researchC. compare different cancer experimentsD. stress the difficulties of medicalresearchCIf two scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory are correct, people will still be driving gasoline powered cars 50 years from now, giving out heat-trapping carbon dioxide （二氧化碳）into the atmosphere—and yet that carbon dioxide will not contribute to global warming.In a proposal by two scientists, vehicle emissions (排放) would no longer contribute to global warming. The scientists, F. Jeffrey Martin and William L. Kubic Jr., are proposing a concept, which they have named Green Freedom, for removing carbon dioxide from the air and turning it back into gasoline.The idea is simple. Air would be blown over a liquid solution of potassium carbonate, which would absorb the carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide would then be put to chemical reactions that would turn it into fuel（燃料）: gasoline or jet fuel.This process could change carbon dioxide from an unwanted, climate-changing pollutant into a vast resource for renewable fuels. The cycle—equal amounts of carbon dioxide produced and removed—would mean that cars, trucks and airplanes using the synthetic (合成的) fuels would no longer be contributing to global warming.Although they have not yet built a synthetic fuel factory, or even a small model, the scientists say it is all based on existing technology. “Everything in the co ncept has been built, is operating or has a close cousin that is operating.” Dr. Martin said.The Los Alamos proposal does not go against any laws of physics, and other scientists who have in dependently suggested similar ideas. Dr. Martin said he and Dr. Kubic had worked out their concept in more detail than former proposals.There is, however, a major fact that explains why no one has built a carbon-dioxide-to-gasoline factory: it requires a great deal of energy.According to their analysis, their concept, which would cost about $5 billion to build, could produce gasoline at an operating cost of $1.40 a gallon and would turn economicallypractical when the price at the pump hits $4.60 a gallon.Other scientists said the Los Alamos proposal perhaps looked promising but could not evaluate it fully because the details has not been published. “It's definitely worth pursuing,” said Martin I. Hoffert, a professor of physics at New York University. “It's not that new an idea. It has a couple of pieces to it th at are interesting.”62. What is the concept of Green Freedom?A. Removing the emission of carbon dioxide.B. Reducing the carbon dioxide produced by car driving.C. Recycling the carbon dioxide into gasoline.D. Reserving the carbon dioxide for global warming.63. What is the value of the scientists’ proposal?A. It increases the productivity of a fuel factory.B. It decreases the cost of producing gasoline.C. It reduces the pollution caused by car driving.D. It promotes a new idea of environmental protection.64. The underlined part “has a close cousin that is operating” probably means thetechnology in the concept ______.A. has been popular for so longB. has been ignored by many peopleC. is not appropriate for practiceD. will be put into practice in the near future65. What is the biggest challenge in realizing the conce pt Green Freedom?A. There is no theoretical basis.B. It is not economically practical.C. There is no solution to some technical problems.D. Only a few scientists support the idea.DIt's amazing how we grow from careless kids to responsible teens. What happens in the course that makes us responsible now? It's the seed that we sow(播种) in the beginning which grows and becomes a huge tree. As I sit here, silently thinking about my growth, I wonder over some questions which don't have an answer but it's because of such unanswerable situations that life has become a roller coaster ride.As a kid, I used to read a lot of story books. In one particular book, I read a story of a bird. From then on, that has become an integral (必不可少的) part of my life. It described a male bird which takes a lot of pain to build a nest and the female bird takes shelter in it and nourishes（哺育） the baby. When the bird learns to fly, the whole family flies off to a different place leaving behind the beautiful nest for other birds to grow their family in it. It made me wonder. How could they so easily give up their house built with so much effort?One night, when I was deep in sleep, I got this particular dream. I was walking miles on the endless road, completely separated but lined with beautiful trees on the either side. Fascinated by the greenery, I marched towards it only to end up deeper and deeper into the greenery. I happened to stop upon seeing something. It was a massive, wonderful house. I fell in love with that amazing part of art. Yeah, it was indeed a piece of art with every nook and corner touched artistically and lovingly. I don't know why I felt that it was done lovingly. Maybe because things turn out to be beautiful only when we put our love into it --- just like the food prepared by mom which tastes more delicious with her love.I explored the house only to fall more in love with it. There was a sloping(斜的) roof which matched with the greenery around; the large central open courtyard reminded me of the activities that might have taken place there which felt lively even now when it is completely deserted. The small water body that kept the house cool added to the beauty of the house — of course, it was all dried up now. It's really wonderful how such things add life to the spaces which otherwise just become structures. Such liveliness and happening turns the house into a home. They say ‘THE HOME IS WHERE TH E HEART IS', but now I began to feel it. This is where my heart belongs. This is what I'm destined(注定的) to do.When I woke up from the dream, I was clear about everything. I realized where that mile of walk was intending me to lead. I realized what message my dream wanted to convey(传递) me. And years later, when finally my turn of choosing my destination came, I simply closed my eyes, held that book in my hand, pressed it against my chest and relived the dream. When I opened my eyes, I was sure what to do. I decided to choose the road —less traveled. Yes, I took up architecture as my profession because this is what I am destined to do. I wanted to do the same thing that the male bird in the story did, to take pain in buildinga beautiful house and let others stay in it. This is my dream come true and the happiness that I gain now from this profession is indescribable.66. When the writer read the story of the bird, he probably felt _______.A. upsetB. confusedC. amazedD. amused67. To the writer, “the seed that we sow in the beginning” (Paragraph 1) is _______.A. the house in his dreamB. his mother's foodC. the story of the birdD. his st ory books68. Mom's food always tastes better because _______.A. mom cooks with her loveB. we are so familiar with mom's foodC. moms are better cooks than fathersD. mom is experienced in cooking69. In the writer's dream, what part of the house attracted him most?A. The greenery surrounding the house.B. The body of water that keeps the house coolC. The liveliness he sensed around the house.D. The fact that the house was very large.70. The passage is mainly about _______.A. how the writer finally becomes an honest citizenB. where the true meaning of responsibility liesC. what we need to do when we are seeking fortuneD. why the writer takes up architecture as his career第二卷（非选择题，共四部分，共35分）第四部分任务型阅读（满分10分）If you are a Wet Blanket (a person who doesn't enjoy himself / herself and thus prevents others from enjoying themselves) when it comes to nature and your kid, you are most likely a caring, protective parent who wants to keep your child safe and sound. You may be so determined to protect your kid from dirt, sunburn, or scratches (划伤) that you try to avoid the outdoors. Or you may just find muddy clothes and sandy toes require too much time to wash. Perhaps you hate to get dirty yourself. The natural world may just make you nervous and you might worry those bugs (虫子) and bats will suck (吸；吮) you dry. It may be that you just never got the chance to be outdoors when you were a kid and now know nothing about what to do with your kid.While it is every care-giver's job to protect their kid, your worries may cause yourchild to grow up as a Wet Blanket as well. If you prefer the indoors yourself, you may be keeping your kid from outdoor experiences without even realizing it. Your attitudes about nature have a huge influence on how comfortable your kid feels outside. You may need to go against your own nature and "open the door" to get your kid outside!"You may already realize the value in helping kids spend time outside in nature and know that playing in nature settings helps children grow up mentally. Perhaps you already introduce your child to nature through books, museums, and zoos. Maybe you just need some ideas of what to do with kids outside. Try some simple nature activities with your kid, or sign up for nature programs to develop you skills. While it may be a challenge for you to get over your own nervousness about nature, you can raise a child who is happy and confident in the natural world.One of the easiest ways you can get your kid outside is to become a Door Opener. Even if you don’t enjoy playing on the mud, you can take breath and let loose! Undirected time to explore nature is an important part of raising a caring kid. This might be free time in the backyard, allowing him to wander ahead on a walk or simply providing him with materials for a project. Putting aside your own nervousness and providing "in-the-wings" support will enrich your child’s journey as a nature lover! Belt out a song (引吭高歌), build a snowman, watch the clouds, or plant a s eed with your child. Help your child connect his creative side with nature.第五部分：单词拼写（共10小题，每小题0.5分,共5分）81.It is commonly accepted that while our sense of sight is used too much, our senses oftouch and smell have been i__________.82.The twins are so alike that I always have difficulty d_____________ one from the other.83.Many overseas summer programs are actually c____________ and expensive activities, notas culture-centered as promoted.84.People of that time believed that it was his questioning the existence of the Greekgods that led to Socrates ______________(使腐化) the young people of Athens.85.The false advertisement is t at the elderly who are easily tricked.86.Though Mrs Richards’ costume c__________ only of a sheet, it was very effective.87.You either s_______to death or live like Robinson Crusoe waiting for a boat which nevercomes.88.If the money was not paid promptly, the gangsters would quickly put a man out of businessby d_________ his shop.89.The customs officer said sarcastically, “You should have d________ that becauseperfume is not exempt from import duty.”90.On his way to the sweet shop, my nephew, George dropped his fifty pence and it bouncedalong the p______ and then disappeared down a drain.第六部分：书面表达（满分20分）请阅读短文, 用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
