于对市爱美阳光实验学校高一英语下学期暑假作业试题〔1〕一阅读理解 (共两节，总分值40分)ALinda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, horseback riding. When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding (婚礼) and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address (地址) Unknown. 〞 I had no idea how to find Linda.Over the years, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman —Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,〞 I thought, but I still wrote to her.She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs Tobin!〞 she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother. 〞Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again!1．The writer went to piano lessons with Linda Evans _______.A. at the age of 13B. before she got marriedC. after they moved to new homesD. before the writer’s family moved away2．They didn’t often write to each other because they _______.A. got marriedB. had little time to do soC. did n’t like writing lettersD. could see each other on special time3．There was an empty place in the writer’s heart be cause she _______.A. was in troubleB. didn’t know Linda’s addressC. received the card that she sentD. didn’t have a friend like Linda to share her happiness or sadness 4．The writer was happy when she _______.A. read the newspaperB. heard Linda’s voice on the phoneC. met a young woman who looked a lot like LindaD. wrote to the woman whose last name was Wagman5．They haven’t kept in touch _______.A. for about 40 yearsB. for about 27 yearsC. since they got marriedD. since the writer’s family moved awayBThere was an old woman who liked to bake(烘焙) cookies. She didn’t have anyone to share them with, so she just gave them away to the children in the neighborhood. This went on for several years and the cookies became quite popular, especially at Christmas time. The parents began to like the cookies as much as the children did, and the old woman’s kitchen became very busy, so the children came to help.Then one Christmas the old woman became ill. There were no cookies, and there was no money to pay the doctor. The children were very sad. Later they had a bright idea, that is, to bake cookies from the old woman’s recipe(食谱). So the children started a cookie store. Soon they had a very good cookie business, with money to pay the doctor as well as to put in the bank.After the old woman got well, she was asked to be the manager of the store, selling special cookies for all the holidays of the year. After the old woman died, the children, now grown up, kept the cookie business alive in her name. Maybe life is like a Christmas cookie. The more you share it with your friends, the more you are likely to enjoy it.6. What did the old woman like to do?A. Buy cookies.B. Bake cookies.C. Sell cookies.D. Eat cookies.7. The children came to help the old woman because_______.A. their parents wanted them to do soB. they wanted to start a cookie storeC. they didn’t like to go to schoolD. the old woman’s kitchen became very busy8. When the old woman was ill, the children ________.A. left her aloneB. baked cookies for her to eatC. took turns to look after herD. baked and sold the cookies to pay the doctor9. After the old woman got well, she was asked to ______.A. be the manager of the cookie storeB. give the cookies away to the poorC. share the cookies with othersD. sell the recipe of making cookiesCWhen you have a question about something, where do you go? For many people the answer is simple, as they can go online to a search engine like Google or Yahoo. But what about people in rural or underdeveloped(欠兴旺) areas who may have no way to get on the Internet?A business and international development professor in California, Rose Shuman, found an answer for them: Question Box. Question Box is a service that provides answers—free of charge—for people who cannot search the Internet directly. The users of Questions Box might be those who might not be able to read, or simply have no access to the Internet.Question Box began three years ago in India. People used a metal call box with a push-to-talk button to connect a live operator. Rose Schuman explained, “You just need to push a big green button on the box which will connect you directly to people who are sitting in front of computers, and speak your language. You can ask them any kind of question you want, and they’ll look it up in English or in Hindi, or whatever the main language is, and translate the answer back for you.〞In April 2021, Question Box was introduced to Uganda. Forty community(社区) workers with mobile phones connected villagers to call center operators in Kampala. The community workers went around telling people about the service. They wore T-shirts that said “Ask me.〞 But Internet service in Uganda proved slow and undependable. So Question Box teamed up with a local technology company to store information on a local server (效劳器). That way, the researchers in Kampala could quickly search the database(数据库) for answers.10. The best title for the passage is __________.A. Question Box ----taking the place of the InternetB. Needing an answer? ----asking Question BoxC. Question Box ----A great joke in the worldD. Rose Shuman----- A professor helping the poor11. In Rose Schuman’s opinion, the greatest advantage of Question Box is that ______.A. It is the most popular in the worldB. It is more comfortable to carryC. It is much easier to useD. it saves much more energy12. What can we know from the passage?A. Question Box is more useful in solving problems in underdeveloped areas.B. Question Box operators can look for information in any language.C. Question Box costs the users much less than the Internet.D. Question Box can work without the help of the Internet in Uganda.二完型填空(共20小题, 每题分，总分值30分)I don’t often lose things and I’m especially careful with money.

高一英语暑假提升训练(三)
高一英语暑假提升训练（三）一、阅读理解1 A popular saying goes, "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." However, that's not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesn't matter if the words come from someone's else or ourselves —the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.We all talk to ourselves sometimes. We're usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. In fact, we really shouldn't be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.This "self-talk" helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm Our-selves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying "Good job!"Often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond ina similar manner. Or harsh(刻薄的) and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.Words possess power because of their lasting effect. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesn't pass this test, then it's better left unsaid.Words possess power both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.1.The main idea of the first paragraph is that ________.A.not sticks and stones but words will hurt usB.inspiring words give us confidenceC.negative words may let us downD.words have a lasting effect on us2.There is no sense for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because _______.A.almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselvesB.we can benefit from talking to ourselvesC.talking to ourselves always gives us courageD.it does no harm to have "self-talk" when we are alone3.The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely_______.A.praise ourselvesB.remind ourselvesC.make ourselves relaxedD.give ourselves amusement4.The author would probably hold the view that ___________.A.encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offersB.negative words may stimulate us to make more progressC.people tend to remember friendly wordsD.it is better to think twice before talking to others2.May : Happenings from the PastMay 5 , 1884Isaac Murphy , son of a slave and perhaps the greatest horse rider in American history, rides Buchanan to win his first Kentucky Derby. He becomes the first rider ever to win the race three times.May 9 , 1754Benjamin Franklin's Pennsylvania Gazette produces perhaps the first American political cartoon , showing a snake cut in pieces , with the words "Join or Die" printed under the picture.May 11 , 1934The first great dust storm of the Great Plains Dust Bowl, the result of years of drought, blows topsoil all the way to New York City and Washington , D. C.May 19, 1994Jacqueline Lee Bouvier Kennedy Onassis, former first lady and one of the most famous people of the 1960s, died of cancer in New York City at the age of 64.May 24, 1844Samuel F. B. Morse taps out the first message, "What hath God wrought," over the experimental long-distance telegraph line which runs from Washington, D. C, to Baltimore, Md.1.We know from the text that Buchanan is .A.Isaac's fatherB.a winning horseC.a slave taking care of horsesD.the first racing horse in Kentucky2.What is the title of the first American political cartoon?A.Join or DieB.Pennsylvania GazetteC.What Hath God WroughtD.Kentucky Derby3.Which of the following places has to do with the first telegram in history?A.Washington, D. C.B.New York CityC.KentuckyD.Pennsylvania3 An old gentleman who lives a few doors away from me can always be seen with a bag. He goes out by himself and picks up plastic bottles, plastic bags and pieces of paper everywhere. He does it all carefully and never complains. The children in the nearby school are probably responsible for some of that litter (废弃物). “There will come a time when they know better,”he said. “It’s just not yet. So, I’ll do it for them.”Well, this morning I was out walking my neighbor’s dog when I saw another neighbor, a much younger man, out doing the same thing! He had his two little sons with him and they were having good fun trying to pick up the litter.When I commented on what a good job he was doing, he said, “Well, an older fellow in our street does this. And my friend and I thought it wasn’t fair that he had to do it all the time, so now we take turns.”Not only was he taking a turn, not only did he have a friend join in as well, but he was passing on the lesson to the next generation!By the time I had returned the dog to my neighbor I looked again and his children’s friends had joined in!This man was teaching a whole group of young children to keep their own street tidy. An older man had set an example for him and now he was passing it on —the next generation is doing what he did and the generation to come after that!1.The old gentleman picks up the litter _____A.to make moneyB.to help the cleanersC.to keep the environment cleanD.to set an example to children2.The younger man did the same thing as the old gentleman because _____.A.it was his turnB.he wanted to share the job with the old manC.it was interesting for himD.he wanted to pass it on to his children3.From the text, we can infer that the author _____.A.believed more people would join in the cleaningB.called on readers to protect the environmentC.felt sorry for not giving a hand to the old manD.thought it unfair for the old man to do the cleaning alone4.What can we learn from the text?A.No pains, no gains.B.Like father, like son.C.The power of example is endless.D.Two heads are better than one.4 Life is difficult.What do you think about life? Maybe most people say that life is difficult. But life is no longer difficult once we truly understand and accept it. Most people do not fully see this truth. Instead, they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that their difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon (强加于) them or their families, their class, or even their nation.What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning.Problems are the serious test that tells success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of the human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt instruct.”It is forthis reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.1.The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to _________.A.show his opinionB.argue with readersC.give an exampleD.get readers’attention2.According to the passage we give school children difficult problems in order to _________.A.encourage them to solve problemsB.teach them to fear the pain of solving problemsC.help them learn to deal with painD.teach them how to respect problems3.The saying from Benjamin Franklin “Those things that hurt instruct.”suggests that _________.A.we do not learn from experienceB.we do not learn when we are in painC.pain teaches us important lessonsD.the pain of problems is not welcome4.The passage mainly tells us that _________.A.we become stronger by facing and solving the problems of lifeB.life is difficult because our problems bring us painC.people like to complain about their problemsD.everybody has problems二、七选五5.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。

For the most part, you are probably only exposed to the music that is played on your favorite radio stations and TV shows, music Web sites, or the music that your friends and family members enjoy. While you probably know a lot about your favorite type of music, it can be a rewarding experience to enlarge your horizons(眼界), discovering artists and types of music that you're not familiar with. Who knows, you might discover you like certain types of music you never even considered.Have you ever wondered about the history and influences of your favorite types of music? For example, did you know that rock ‘n’ roll originated(起源)from the blues, and that the blues began as a form of musical expression for African Americans during slavery？Did you know that most hiphop is heavily influenced by early rhythm blues and jazz?There are many fun ways to learn about different musical styles and their historical roots. For example, if you like hiphop, listen to some of your favorite CDs and take note of the samples the performers used to create the songs. There is a possibility that the artist used parts of older songs to create the music. You can go to the library or online to learn more about the artists and listen to more of their music by checking out CDs from the library or downloading songs online for a small fee.You can learn so much about culture and history just by paying attention to different types of music and what is being expressed in the songs.

AAround twenty years ago I was going through hard times. I could not find a satisfying job. To my shame, I had to drive a school bus to make ends meet and lived in a friend’s house.One afternoon, while driving through a quiet suburban (郊外的) neighborhood I was so sad that I kept asking myself “Why has my life become so hard?〞“What’s wrong with the world?〞 Then I pulled over the bus to drop off (让...下车) a little girl and as she passed she handed me a pretty earring, saying she found it on the floor of the bus and I should keep it in case〔以防〕the owner came to look for it.In the evening, the owner did come to look for her earring. When I han ded it to her, she got very excited and continued saying “Thanks, you’re a real gentleman.〞 I told her that she should thank the little girl who had found it. She said, “Yes, and you are a good driver, too. What a lovely world it is!〞 Then she left with satisfaction. I was touched by her last words. I had thought something was wrong with the world just because of my poor condition. In fact, nothing was wrong with the world. I should change my attitude towards life. I should be positive about life.At first it was hard, and then it got easier. Every day I could find things to make me happy. Then one night there was a phone call for me at my friend’s house from a lady who was a manager in a large hospital. She said she had read my application form and asked me if I would like to work in the hospital. I said yes and got the job. Looking back at the experience I know the most important is to have a positive attitude towards life.21. We know from the second paragraph that ________.A. the author cried while driving that afternoonB. a girl picked up an earring before getting offC. there was only one passenger on the busD. the girl gave the author an earning as a gift22. The author decided to have a change in life because ________.A. what the earring owner said moved himB. he didn’t want to be a driver any moreC. his friends helped him become positiveD. he was offered a better job in a hospital23. When the author got a call from the manager of the hospital, he felt ________.A. surprisedB. disappointedC. shockedD. delighted24. What does the author want to show in this passage?A. Lost things should be returned to the owner.B. Life is usually hard for the young at the beginning.C. One should hold a positive attitude towards life.D. It is not easy to find a good job nowadays.BThe influence of America is increasing in my country. Spanish people drink Coca Cola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen to American music, and eat fast food, and they do these things every day.I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies. Most of the programs and documentaries (纪录片) we watch on TV are from America, and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood.In the last few years, the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies. Now, in our cinemas, at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from other countries in Europe.American culture is a part of Spanish life now. It’s certain that many things from America are as much a part of people’s lives as Spanish things. For example, Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product. I’ve known about Coca Cola for my whole life.However, it’s different with Western fast food. For example, I don’t think McDonald’s is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries. In my opinion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people. The Spanish people normally eat at home.On the other hand, maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas. It’s true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonald’s, and i t is more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults. In any case, it’s obvious that American culture is becoming more and more a part of our lives every day.25. From the first paragraph we can know that ____.A. the influence of America on Spain can be found everywhereB. most Spanish people don’t like to listen to their own musicC. fast food spreads from Spain to the United StatesD. some Spanish actors go to America to improve their acting skills26. What plays an important part in the spreading of American culture in Spain?A. American novels.B. Hollywood movies.C. McDonald’s.D. American music.27. Why did the government set some rules for the films shown in Spain?A. To protect foreign culture in Spain.B. To earn more money from Spanish films.C. To limit the number of foreign movies.D. To unite theEuropean Community.28. What do you think Spanish tapas (in the last paragraph)might be?A. The name of a drink.B. The name of a restaurant.C. A clothing brand.D. A certain kind of food.CA newly-published study has shown that loneliness can spread from one person to another, like a disease. Researchers used information from the Framingham Study, which began in 1948. The Framingham Study gathers information about physical and mental health, personal behavior and diet. At first, the study involved about 5,000 people in the American state of Massachusetts. Now, more than 12,000 individuals are taking part.Information from the Framingham Study showed earlier that happiness can spread from person to person. So can behaviors like littering and the ability to stop smoking.University of Chicago psychologist John Cacioppo led the recent study. He and other researchers attempted to show how often people felt lonely. They found that the feeling of loneliness spread through social groups.Having a social connection with a lonely person increased the chances that another individual would feel lonely. In fact, a friend of a lonely person was 52% more likely to develop feelings of loneliness. A friend of that person was 25% more likely. The researchers say this shows that a person could indirectly be affected by someone’s loneliness.The effect was strongest among friends. Neighbors were the second most affected group. The effect was weaker on husbands and wives, and brothers and sisters. The researchers also found that loneliness spread more easily among women than men.The New York Times newspaper reports that, on average, people experience feelings of loneliness about 48 days a year. It also found that every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about five percent, or two and a half fewer lonely days.Loneliness has been linked to health problems like depression and sleeping difficulties. The researchers believe that knowing the causes of loneliness could help in reducing it.The study suggests that people can take steps to stop the spread of loneliness. They can do this by helping individuals they know who may be experiencing loneliness. The result can be helpful to the whole social group.29. What is TRUE about the Framingham Study?A. It was only conducted in 1948.B. It involves more than 12,000 participants.C. It was led by John Cacioppo.D. It showed that any behavior could spread.30. Which statement about the spread of loneliness is true?A. The spreading effect was the second strongest among friends.B. No spreading effect was found on husbands and wives.C. Women are more likely to be affected than men.D. Brothers are more easily affected than neighbors.31. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Actions should be taken to help lonely people.B. People feel lonely for many reasons.C. Ways to fight against loneliness.D. Lonely people can affect others.DAsk a teacher to name the most annoying invention of recent years and they will often mention the mobile phone. Disturbed by the problems they create, many head teachers have ordered that pupils should keep their phones switched off at school. Others have told pupils to leave them at home．However, education researchers at The University of Nottingham believe it is time that phone bans(禁止) were reconsidered, because mobile phones can be a powerful learning aid, they say. Dr Elizabeth Hartnell-Young and her colleagues have reached this conclusion after studying the consequences of allowing pupils in five secondary schools to use either their own mobile phones or the new generation of ‘smartphones’ in lessons．During the nine-month experiment, 14- to 16-year-old pupils used the phones for a wide range of educational purposes, including creating short movies, setting homework reminders, recording a teacher reading a poem, and timing experiments with the phones’ stopwatches．The smartphones, which could be connected to the Internet, also allowed pupils to access revision websites, log into the school email system, or transfer(转存)electronic files between school and home．The research involved 331 pupils in schools in Cambridgeshire, West Berkshire and Nottingham．“At the start of the study, even pupils wer e often surprised at the thought that mobile phones could be used for learning,〞 Dr Hartnell-Young said．“After their hands-on experience, almost all pupils said they had enjoyed the project and felt more inspired.〞Some teachers found that pupils who lacked confidence gained most from the project．However, they recognised that greater use of mobile phones in schools could cause problems．32．We can infer from the first paragraph that ．A．teachers are strongly against students owning mobile phones B．mobile phones should be developed to meet students’ needsC．students are free to use their mobile phones at school D．mobile phones are usually forbidden to be used at school 33．When the students first used mobile phones for learning, they ．A．all enjoyed the project very muchB ．didn’t know what they were used forC ．didn’t fully realize the learning functions of mobile phonesD ．were surprised that they were allowed to use mobile phones in schools 34．Who benefited most from the project? A ．Older pupils ．B ．Pupils who were not confident ．C ．Younger pupils ．D ．Pupils who were confident ． 35．The purpose of the text is to tell us that ． A ．mobile phones can actually help students learn B ．mobile phones begin to be widely used in schoolsC ．too much use of mobile phones in schools can cause problemsD ．the mobile phone is considered the most annoying invention of recent years第二节：〔共5小题，每题2分，总分值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正确选项。
(整理版高中英语)市高考英语阅读理解(暑假)训练(3)及答案
省市高考英语阅读理解〔暑假〕训练〔3〕及答案How often do you travel by plane?How much electricity do you use? These days everyone is worried about the size of their carbon footprint．In order to reduce global warming we need to make our carbon footprints smaller．But how much CO2 are we responsible for?A new book by Mike Berners Lee 〔a leading expert in carbon footprint〕 might be able to help．How Bad are Bananas? The Carbon Footprint of Everything looks at the different things we do and buy, and calculates the amount of CO2all of the following created: the ingredients 〔=parts of a mixture〕, the electricity used in the brewery, the equipment, the travel and commuting 〔交换〕 of the beer, and the packaging．It’s amazing how many different things need to be included in each calculation．And it’s frightening how much carbon dioxide everything produces．But all of this can help us decide which beer to drink．From Berners-Lee’s calculations, it’s clear that a pint 〔568ml〕 of locally-brewed beer has a smaller carbon footprint than a bottle of imported beer．This is because the imported beer has been transported from far away, and it uses more packaging．The local beer only produces 300g of CO2, but the imported beer produces 900g! So, one pint of local beer is better for the environment than three cans of cheap foreign lager 〔淡啤酒〕 from the supermarket．Berners-Lee has even calculated the carbon footprint of cycling to work．Nothing is more environmentally-friendly than riding a bike, surely? Well, it depends on what you’ve had to eat before．To ride a bike we need energy and for energy we need food．So if we eat a banana and then ride a kilometer and a half, our footprint is 65g of CO2．However, if we eat bacon before the bike ride, it’s 200g．In fact, bananas are good in general because they don’t n eed packaging, they can be transported by boat and they grow in natural sunlight．So, does this mean that cycling is bad for the environment? Absolutely not, for a start, if you cycle, you don’t use your car, and the fewer cars on the road, thefewer traffic jams．And cars in traffic jams produce three times more CO2 than cars traveling at speed．Cycling also makes you healthy and less likely to go to a hospital．And hospitals have very big carbon footprints!So maybe it’s time for us all to start making some changes．Pass me a banana and a pint of local beer, please．5．According to Berners-Lee, which of the following produces the most carbon dioxide？A．A pint of local beer we drink．B．A pint of imported beer we drink．C．A banana we eat before a bike ride．D．The bacon we eat before a bike ride．6．Why are bananas good in general?A．They grow naturally．B．They produces less CO2．C．They don’t need packaging．D．They provide energy for cycling．7．The underlined word “brewery〞 in Paragraph 3 most probably mean s “___________〞．A．a factory where beer is madeB．a machine which makes beerC．a container where beer is storedD．one of the things from which beer is made8．To make our carbon footprints smaller, we should often ___________．A．cycle to workB．drink more local beerC．calculate the amount of CO2D．buy cheap things from the supermarkets9．What’s the most suitable title for the passage?A．Bikes, Beer and BananasB．Starting to Make ChangesC．How Big Is Your Carbon Footprint?D．The Carbon Footprint of Everything参考答案〔B〕 BBAAC******************************************************结束阅读以下短文，从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C、D〕中，选出最正确选项。

Jack and Tara，our 1 ，were in their small beds surrounded by toy animals. My husband，Pat，and I went to sleep 2 .3 after midnight，Jack quietly touched me. “Mommy，I want to stay with you. I promiseI won’t take much room.〞 I shifted 4 to make room. My son soon fell asleep. An hour later，Tara cried and I carefully went downstairs. “Mommy，my 5 is all stuffed up (堵住)．I can’t really breathe very well. Will you please 6 with me a little while？〞 Tara doesn’t often get up at night， 7 I decided to be there for her. She soon fell asleep. I returned to my own bed. I was determined to sleep. But to my 8 ，I found Jacksleeping on my side of the bed. He looked so 9 that I couldn’t remove him.Quietly and carefully，I lay down between 10 and Jack.I did manage to get some sleep 11 I heard Tara’s voice again.I returned to 12 Tara.“Mom，please lie down with me a little bit.

So it is especially on days when I ’m worn out after a night on this mom’ s merrygoround that I remind 19 that these very days and nights are ，in fact ，“the good old days〞，ever so 20 .三、 阅读理解AIt seems that some people go out of their way to get into trouble. That ’s more or less what happened the night that Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty. “I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. As I got onto Highway 40, blue lights and siren(警笛) going, I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway. The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me. He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder.〞But Hyde couldn ’t go after him. Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident. But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove, hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car. As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult. Every turn the Pontiac made B ．Every time B ．kindly B ．mouth B ．stay B ．so B ．anger B ．heavy B ．Tara B ．when B ．look after B ．exciting B ．anything B ．on B ．how soon B ．No wonder B ．quiet B ．my husband B ．precise C ．Sometime C ．rudely C ．heart C ．talk C ．no matter when C ．disappointment C ．content C ．Pat C ．after C ．watch out C ．excited C ．everything C ．by C ．how long C ．No problem C ．still C ．my friend C ．precious 3．A.

No doubt 18．A. noisy 19．A. my children 20．A. potential 1．A. sons 2．A. downstairs B ．twins B ．in D ．students D ．upstairs C ．daughters C ．out D ．AnytimeD ．impatiently D ．eyeD ．playD ．however D ．surprise D ．sadD ．my mother D ．whileD ．take care D ．scaring D ．nothing D ．inD ．how much D ．No worry D ．calmD ．myself D ．previouswas the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene.Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination(目的地). At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene. His help wasn’t needed. Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the firebird, who by this time had developed something new to panick about.“Just about that time,〞 Hyde says, “ I saw fire coming out from under that car, with blue smoke and oil going everywhere. He’s blown his engine. Now he had to stop.〞“After I arrested him, I asked him why he was running. He told me he didn’t have a driver’s licenseThat accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty—a thousand dollars for the new engine—not to mention the charges for driving without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving.1. The meaning of “panicked〞 in paragraph 2 is related to _______.A. happyB. fearC. angerD. hate2. Why did the driver of the Firebird suddenly speed down the highway?A. Because he was racing with another driver on the road.B. Because he realized he had to hurry to the accident scene.C. Because he thought the police officer wanted to stop him.D. Because he wanted to overtake other cars on the shoulder.3. Which of the following statements is true?A. Someone else was taking care of the injured person.B. The Pontiac reached its destination at the accident scene.C. Hyde knew where he was going by following the right car.D. The policeman was running after a speeder on Highway 40.4. The driver of the Firebird _________.A. took a wrong turn on the wayB. had some trouble with his carC. was stopped by the police officerD. paid for the expenses of the accident5. What is probably the best title for the article?A. Losing His Way?B. Going My Way?C. Fun All the Way?D. Help on the Way?BElectrical devices (仪器) could soon use power made by human energy. Scientists say they have developed an experimental device that produces electricity from the physical movement of a person walking. British scientist Max Donelan and other scientists in Canada and the United States developed the device.The device connects to a person's knee. As the person walks, the device captures energy each time the person slows down. To do this, the device helps with the slowing down movement of the leg. The movements of the walking person push parts of a small machine that produces electricity. Using the device, an adult walking quickly could produce thirteen watts of electricity in just a minute. Donelan says walking at that speed could produce enough power to operate a laptop computer for six minutes. There are several possible uses for the device. Developers say it could help people who work in areas without electricity to operate small computers. The device couldalso be used in hospitals to operate heart pacemakers (起搏器). It could even be used to assist in the movement of robotic arms and legs.The experimental version of the device weighs about one and a half kilograms, but it is too costly for most people to buy. But the researchers hope to make a lighter, less costly version. An improved version should be ready in one year.The developers hope the device will one day help developing countries. Nearly twenty-five percent of people around the world live without electric power.A similar product was invented in by Larry Rome of the University of Pennsylvania. He created a bag carried on a person's back that also produces power from walking. The knee device does not produce as much electricity as the bag. But the bag requires the walker to carry a load of twenty to thirty kilograms.6. The second paragraph mainly talks about _______.A. who developed the deviceB. how the device worksC. several possible uses for the devicesD. how much electricity the device can produce7. What is the disadvantage of the experimental version of the device?A. It is too heavy for the walker to bear.B. It is too complex for people to use.C. It will slow down one's walking speed.D. It is too dear for most people to afford.8. Compared with the device designed by Larry Rome, this new device _______.A. produces power without adding more loads to the walkerB. can produce more power in a much shorter timeC. needs to be equipped with a batteryD. can help the walker walk faster9. From the passage, we can learn that the electrical device can _______.A. help housewives operate the micro-wave ovenB. make it much easier for us to go onlineC. produce more electricity than that invented by Larry RomeD. be applied in medicine to operate heart pacemakers10. What would be the best title for the passage?A. First device powered by walking will soon be on the marketB. Advanced technology brings in a new way to operate heart pacemakersC. Device gives new meaning to the idea of power walkingD. Human energy will become a main source of electricityCThe man could not believe that there could be a greater archer than him，but he went and found the old man and he was! For three years he learned from him．Then one day，when he thought he had learned everything，the thought arose in him：“If I kill this old man，then I will be the greatest archer．〞The old man had gone to cut wood and he was coming back carrying wood on his shoulder．The young man hid behind a tree，waiting to kill him．He shot an arrow．The old man took a small piece of wood and threw it．It struck the arrow and the arrowturned back and wounded the young man very deeply．The old man came，took out the arrow and said, “I kne w that some day or other you were going to do this．That’s why I have not taught you this secret．There is no need to kill me．My Master is still alive，and I’m nothing before him．You must be with him for at least thirty years．And he is very old，So go fast! Find the old man!〞11. The underlined word in the 1st paragraph is closest in meaning to“_______. 〞A．admire B．advise C．announce D．admit12. The young archer wanted to kill the old man because_______ .A．he had nothing more to learn from himB．he could then become the greatest archerC．the old man refused to teach him everythingD．the king’s old servant ordered him to do so13.

江苏省丹阳高级中学2020级高一暑假作业（三）高一英语第Ⅰ卷第一部分阅读理解(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和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
AHere are a few signs you can look for to see if you and your pet have love for each other.Lying onto its backYour cat's stomach is a very weak place. If it lies onto its back and shows its stomach, it's telling you it's comfortable around you. This doesn't necessarily mean it wants you to touch its stomach. It's mainly a sign that it feels protected when you're near since being on its back is a powerless position.Eating out of your handUsually, cats won't take food from a human's hand unless it is someone they trust very much. Cats are instinctively careful, so they don't take treats easily from strangers' hands, unlike many dogs. If you can feed them snacks or food from your hand, it's a sure sign that they trust you.Bringing you giftsEven if you don't have a cat, you've probably heard about cats bringing their owners little “presents” in the form of dead animals. However, while you might view them as “presents” only sarcastically(讽刺地), your cat doesn't! For them, their prey stands for victory, and their instinctual nature as wild hunters. Wild cats would catch food for their young, so your cat's “gift” of its latest catch just means it considers you family.Giving you a “thumbs up” with its tailCats can send all sorts of different messages just with their tails. A cat's tail is a good barometer(晴雨表) of their mood. One simple way to know if your cat trusts you is to see if its tail stands straight up, especially when it sees you or walks toward you. Some cat experts consider it to be a sign of praising in cat language.1. What do “Lying onto its back” and “Eating out of your hand” show in common?A. The cat wants to relax.B. The cat feels safe.C. The cat is grateful to you.D. The cat hopes to reward you.2. Why does a cat give you what it catches?A. It wants to pay you back.B. It is just showing off its ability.C. It regards you as a family member.D. It is giving a thank-you sign.3. What does a cat probably mean by putting its tail straight up?A. Praising you.B. Laughing at you.C. Forecasting weather.D. Warning you.Global warming is the increase of the earth's average surface temperature due to the effect of greenhouse gases, for example, carbon dioxide, which traps heat that would otherwise escape from the earth. After the trees are cut down and more greenhouse gases are released, the “blanket” around the earth called the ozone layer(臭氧层), will get thicker. This catches more heat and makes the earth hotter. Luckily, there are many things that every citizen of the earth can do to help reduce the effects of global warming, and it's never too late or too early for children to take action.The children should learn what a carbon footprint is. A carbon footprint is the amount of carbon and greenhouse gases people make as they lead the daily life and go about the normal activities. In other words, the carbon footprint is a measure of the environmental impact the life has. To live an environmentally friendly life that doesn't contribute to global warming, people want to have the smallest carbon footprint possible.Almost everything people do contributes to global warming and is related to fossil fuel consumption. These can be direct uses of fossil fuels, like riding in a gasoline-powered car, or indirect contributions to greenhouse gases, such as eating fruits or vegetables that have to be shipped from far way to reach their tables.If a child wants to make a contribution to reducing global warming, he should ride a bicycle to the near park, school, his friend's house, or anywhere else instead of taking the car. Or he may try to walk or jog, which is also helpful. In addition, although trains and buses often run on fossil fuels, on average, each person uses less energy and produces less pollution to run. Next time if children with their parents have to get around town or it's too far to walk or bike, take the bus or other public transportation instead of asking for a ride.4. What is the main reason for global warming?A. Too much greenhouse gases are released.B. The ozone layer has caught more heat.C. Much more ozone layer has been released.D. The increase of the earth's inner temperature results in the global warming.5. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?A. Life has an impact on carbon footprints.B. The definition of a carbon footprint.C. People should live an environmental-friendly life.D. People make a huge amount of carbon and greenhouse gases.6. The author wants to write the passage for ________．A. childrenB. parentsC. children educatorsD. adults7. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. What Can People Do To Use Less Energy?B. Why Global Warming Affects Humans' Life?C. How Can Kids Help Reduce Global Warming?D. How Do Carbon Footprints Measure Pollution?Language experts say that spoken English was almost the same in the American colonies and Britain two hundred years ago. Americans began to change the sound of their speech after the Revolutionary War in 1776.They wanted to make it different to separate themselves from the British in language，in the same way they separated themselves from the British government.Some American leaders proposed(建议) major changes in the language. Benjamin Franklin wanted a whole new system of spelling. His reforms(改革) were not accepted. But his ideas did influence others. One was Noah Webster.Webster wrote language books for schools. He believed the United States should have a system of its own language as well as government. Webster published a dictionary of the American language in 1828.It established rules for speaking and spelling the words used in American English.Webster wrote that all words should be said in the order of the letters that spell them. This is why Americans use the letters “er” to end many words instead of the British “re”. He spelled the word “center，” for example，“center”，instead of the British “centre.”Webster’s rule for saying every part of a word made American English easier for foreign settlers to learn. They learned to say “waistcoat”，for example，the way it is spelled instead of the British “weskit”．The different languages of many people who came to the United States also helped make American and British English different. Many of their foreign words and expressions became part of English as Americans speak them.Sometimes Americans and British people do not understand each other because of different word meanings. For example，the word “jumper” in Britain means a sweater. In the United States，it is a dress. The British word “brolly” is an “umbrella” in America. And the British call potato chips “crisps”．All of these differences led British writer George Bernard Shaw to joke that Britain and America are two countries separated by the same language!8．What does the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refer to?A．Separating themselves from the British in language. B．Written English in America.C．Spoken English in America. D．Spoken English in Britain. 9．Why did American want their language to differ from British English?A．Because they found British English hard to speak.B．Because they found British English hard to spell.C．Because they wanted to have their own language and government.D．Because foreign settlers wanted them to change their language.10．Why do Americans use the word “meter” instead of the word “metre”？A．Because Benjamin Franklin didn’t like the word “metre”．B．Becau se the word “meter” was absorbed from other languages.C．Because Webster thought the word should be said in the order of the letters that are spelt.D．Because Webster thought American English should be made easier for foreign settlers to learn.11．Which of the following is NOT one of the reasons why English began to change in America?A．The government leaders. B．Noah Webster.C．Immigration to America. D．The difficulty Americans had in understanding the British.DI was once told，“You are wasting your time o n a career that will give you no money or comfort.”I explored my interests for years and finally decided to be a journalist. However，I’m still influenced by others’ arguments：print publications are being replaced by web versions where content is updated nearly every time you refresh the browser. But I hold onto my decision. Why? For the simple，yet powerful reason is that it makes me happy in a way that no amount of money ever could.Rarely have I found others who think like this，and I find it very disappointing when I hear students trying to design their lives on the basis of factors(因素) other than keeping to their passions and interests.Factor number one is parents. They certainly have a right to be a part in their children’s lives，but sometimes their words create more stress than encouragement. Instead of trying to make their children happy，as their original purpose may have been，parents can end up limiting their children’s dreams and desires until nothing remains but the hard seeds of a cruel reality.The second factor is money. I had a conversation with my college friend one afternoon，which explains this point.“What happened？” I asked him after he said he had changed his major.“I thought you wanted to be a photographer.”“I do，” he said，“But there is no money in it.”“Don’t worry，” he added，probably feeling my worry. “I’m happy where I am.” I was ready to believe that，but as we kept on talking，he continuously interrupted me to point out the beauty of this view and that view，saying he wished he had taken his camera with him.Naturally，we cannot predict where we will end up with our choices. Our ideas and plans could change as we progress. However，at this stage in our lives when so many voices are telling us who we should be，we need to value our individual dreams，not to abandon them，because they may be the only things left that tell us who we are.12．Why is the author determined to be a journalist?A．He could get a high pay. B．He is influenced by others.C．He is truly interested in journalism. D．He has been studying journalism for years. 13．What does the author think of parents’ role in their children’s career choice?A．They shouldn’t try to influence their children in any way.B．They help their children make the right choice of a career.C．They should support their children whatever they choose.D．They may destroy their children’s dreams of a certain career.14．What do we know about the author’s friend?A．He doesn’t care about what his job will bring him.B．He is still deeply interested in photography.C．He has lost his confidence in his abilities.D．He is doubtful about his new choice.15．The author thinks that when choosing a career，.A．one should not consider their individual dreamsB．one should take a lot of factors into considerationC．one’s desires and interests should come firstD．one should be realistic about future income第二节：七选五（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。

It’s really amazing.Michelle 18 her children pretty much like the rest of us, except that she isn’t too hard on them. Her children really benefit a lot from her 19 attitude. She knows when to clean the house, and she moves around so fast that 20 often don’t realize she’s blind.I 21 this the first time after my six-year-old daughter, Kayla, went to play there. When Kayla came home, she was very 22 about her day. She told me they had baked cookies, played games and done art projects. But she was 23 excited about her finger-painting project. “Mom, guess what?〞said Kayla, all smiles. “I learned how to 24 colors today! Blue and red make purple, and yellow and blue make green!

The snow was extremely heavy and there was lots of ice on the ground --- not many people had ventured out that evening!When I returned to my car around 11pm, I noticed that I was the only car left. Nervously, I hopped into the car and let it warm up a bit. When I finally tried to drive away, my wheels began to spin. I was stuck!I spun and spun and wondered what to do.All of a sudden, in my rear view mirror, I saw four teen-aged boys approaching my car. They were walking side by side in a line and dresseda bit like gang members --- at least I thought that's what they looked like. My car was in a very isolated area and I began to panic. I was certain they were coming to my car to harm me. Terrified, I just froze. One of the young men tapped on my window and said "Excuse me, Ma'am, can we help you? You seem stuck." Still afraid and fearing the worst, I said "I am stuck." And the young man said "It's okay, stay in your car and we'll push you out of the snow." And they did!When they finally got me out of the snow, they smiled and waved.I rolled down my window and thanked them, embarrassed to have judged them so poorly.36. Why did the author just freeze when the four young men walking toward her car?A. Because she knew they would rob her of the car.B. Because she sat in her car for too long a time.C. Because she was cold indeed in that freezing evening.D. Because she was afraid of being harmed.37. Which of the following words can best describe the four young men?A. Impolite.B. Warm-hearted.C. UnfriendlyD.Ill-mannered.38. Which of the following is true according to the text?A. The kids wanted to help the author out of trouble.B. One of the four teenagers was a gang memberC. The author would have a baby in her car.D. The young men enjoyed pushing cars out of the snow.39. The best title for the text would be___________．A. Every man has his faultsB. Don't judge a book by its coverC. Fortune favors those who use their judgementD. Think twice before you do.BMaking greener choices and encouraging healthy lifestyles can promote your health and benefit the environment. Here are some guidelines to follow:Choose foods thoughtfullyAmericans have never had such a variety or abundance of food to choose from．Besides so many choices, we now hear about our “food print〞, the amount of land needed to supply one person’s nutritional needs for a year．Do we buy cherry tomatoes from Mexico or tomatoes grown locally in a hothouse? Do we get the Granny Smiths from the farmers’market or the supermarket? Is organic produce healthier for us and the planet?These are very complex issues that require analysis of many criteria, including the energy used in producing and transporting the food, as well as the type of soil and methods of raising the food．Despite the complexities, there are some general guidelines you can follow. For instance, eat less meat or eat low on the food chain. Your doctor may have recommended you to restrict your consumption of red meat because of its too much fat content. Beyond that, there are environmental reasons, too. Raising food animals contributes substantially to climate change because a meat-based diet requires more land, energy and water than a plant-based one．Drinking plenty of fluids is significant during hot weather or when exercising. But is bottled water the way to go? You may not think so when seeing the true costs. Based on a survey, manufacturing the 30-plus billion plastic water bottles can produce more than million tons of carbon dioxide and use three times the amount of water in the bottle. Adding in transportation, the energy used comes to over 50 million barrels of oil equivalent 〔价物〕. Consequently, skip the bottled water and drink tap water, both at home and at restaurants. Additionally, bottled water is not necessarily cleaner than tap．40. In Paragraph 2 the author puts forward three questions mainly______．A．to prove Americans have less food to choose fromB．to show us the shopping habits of most AmericansC．to remind people to reconsider their food purchaseD．to indicate Americans tend to buy food from abroad 41. According to the text, which of the following is true? A．Americans all prefer to buy cherry tomatoes from Mexico．B．Americans have a variety of food to choose from．C．The plant-based diet is responsible for the climate change．D．Organic produce is the only choice for Americans．42. Based on the last paragraph, we know that ______．A．tap water is economical as well as eco-friendlyB．bottled water is cleaner than tap waterC．bottled water is more available than tap waterD．tap water uses one-third the cost of bottled water43．What is the best subtitle for the last paragraph?A．Drink bottled water B．Skip bottled water, carry tap C．Produce plastic water bottles D．Save water resourcesCWhen a close friend dies, it often forces you to consider your own death. The more you have in common with the friend, the more his death will make you wonder about your own. Sometimes you will naturally say to yourself, “It could just as easily have been me.〞 Such a death has a way of reminding us how fragile〔脆弱的〕life is, and it may cause you to reassess(重评价) the direction of your own life.Jack’s story is a good example. A successful businessman making a lot of money, Jack d idn’t spend as much time with his family as hewanted. His job required him to work long hours. But three years ago one of his best friends, a man who worked in the same office, had a heart attack. He died while celebrating his daughter’s eighteenth birthd ay in a restaurant. He was only fifty years old.Not long after his friend’s death, Jack started to have a chest pain. Finally he had a good physical check-up. He received a clean bill of health. But the chest pain continued. He kept thinking of the death of his friend. Jack thought about how much his friend missed in life and he saw how hard it was for his friend’s family to manage after he passed away.Jack realized that he didn’t want to end up his life that way. He talked his feelings over with his wife and children, and decided to change his way of life. The family moved to a small town where he started a simple life. Now he is running a small art gallery(画廊). He is relaxed, and says he has never been so happy in his life. And he has got no more chest pain.44. Your close friend’s death is _____ to you.A. a warningB. commonC. a direction of lifeD. an example45. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph means “_____〞.A. The doctor didn’t write a word on his billB. The doctor di dn’t want Jack to pay for the billC. The doctor didn’t find anything wrong with himD. The doctor didn’t want to treat his pain46. His friend’s death made Jack _____.A. lose much interest in lifeB. realize that he missed the friend very muchC. doubt his way of lifeD. ill for some time47. While living in the small town Jack _____.A. earns less moneyB. gets more timeC. has a happier lifeD. does all these mentioned aboveDA newspaper reporter’s job can be v ery interesting. He meets all types of people and lives quite a busy life. He is on the rush for news all the time, then after several years he may get a desk job, and life becomes a bit more settled. Let’s look at his work a little more closely. In a day he may have to interview the prime minister of a foreign country, and the next day he may be writing about a football match. Sometimes he may be so busy that he has hardly any time to sleep. And at other times he may go on for days looking out for news materials yet return empty-handed.In the beginning, a reporter has to cover a very wide field. After the early years he becomes more specialized in his work. For example,he may finally be asked to write only on court cases or politics or sports. Some reporters may become so specialized that they are asked only to write on a special thing: horse racing, for example. In most newspaper houses there is at least one special racing correspondent. Some newspapers have book reviews. Their job is delightful. They read the latest book and then write reviews on the ones they like. Then there are those who write on films, so they get to see them even before they are shown in the cinema. How lucky, you would say!A reporter’s job can also be very dangerous. A number of them have died rushing from one assignment to another, and if there is a flood or a riot() they may get hurt or even be killed. Three years ago there was a reporter whose camera was smashed by a group of men, because they were angry with him for taking their picture. Dangerous or not, one thing is certain, and that is, their job is never dull!48. What does the underlined phrase “on the rush〞 mean in the passage?A. on the beachB. in a hurryC. on the spotD. in no time49. Reporters who write on films are said to be lucky because they _____.A. can see the films before most people see them in the cinemaB. can see more film starsC. can pay less than other peopleD. can write anything they like 50. A reporter’s work becomes dangerous when _____.A. there is a flood or a riotB. there is an interview with the prime ministerC. there is a football matchD. he is seeing a horror film51. From the passage we can infer that, to be a good reporter, he must be all of the following except _____.A. braveB. strongC. quick in mindD. well-informedEMore than 6,000 children were expelled(开除) from the U. S. schools last year for bringing guns and bombs to schools, the U. S. Department of Education said on May 8.The department gave a report on the expulsions(开除) as saying handguns accounted for 85 percent of the 6,093 expulsions in 1996-97, against 7 percent for rifles() or shotguns and 25 percent for other types of firearms.“The report is a clear sign that our nation’s public schools are cracking down(严惩) on students who bring guns to school.〞 Education Secretary Richard Riley said in a statement. “We need to betough-minded about keeping guns out of our schools and do everything to keep our children safe.〞In March 1997, an 11-year-old and a 13-year-old boy using handguns and rifles shot dead four children and a teacher at a school in Jonesboro,Arkansas. In October, two were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school. Two months later, a 14-year-old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Daducah, Kentucky.Most of the expulsions, 56 per cent, were from high schools, which have students from about age 16. Nearly 34 per cent were from junior high schools and 9 per cent were from elementary schools, the report said.52. From the first paragraph we can infer that in the U. S. schools _____.A. students enjoy shootingB. students are eager to be soldiersC. safety is a problemD. students can make guns53. The report from the U. S. Department of Education shows that _____.A. the number of the expulsions is not largeB. the number of the expulsions is wrongC. there are soldiers hiding among the studentsD. guns are out of control in the U. S. schools.54. The main idea of Paragraph 4 shows us _____.A. some examples of shooting in the U. S. schoolsB. the American’s feelingC. some terrible accidentsD. that some teachers were killed by students55. According to the passage, how many students were shot dead in 1997 in the U. S .schools?A. 10 B. 9 C. 12 D. 22第四：短文填词The Internet was first set up in the 1960s. At that time, the computer was both large expensive and the networks were56.________unable to w well.

But you will never really know the answer to this question 32 you are tested in real life. Some people think they are brave, but when they come face to face with real 33 , they act like cowards. Others think of themselves as cowards, but when they meet danger, they act like heroes.Lenny had always thought of himself as a 34 person. He got worried before examinations. He worried about his job and health. All he wanted in life was to be safe and healthy. Then on January 15th, 2002, a plane crashed into the Potomac River in Washington. Lenny happened to see a woman in the ice-cold water. He did not feel afraid. He 35 verycalm and did a very dangerous thing. He jumped into the Potomac, 36 to the woman, and kept her head 37 the water. Seventy-eight people died that day. Thanks to Lenny, it was not 38 .When you are in a very dangerous situation and feel afraid, the body automatically(自动地) produces a chemical called adrenalin in the blood. With adrenalin in the blood system, you actually feel stronger and stronger and are 39 to fight or run away. However, when you are terrified greatly, the body can produce too much adrenalin. 40 this happens, the muscles become very hard. You are then paralyzed (麻木) with fear. This is why when we are extremely frightened, we sometimes say we are “petrified”. This word 41 a Greek word “petros”, which means “stone”. We are 42 frightened that we become stonelike.31.

In the early 1980s, he became an important figure in popular music. The popularity of his music videos, such as Beat It, Billie Jean and Thriller, helped bring the relatively new channel to fame. Videos such as Black or White and Scream made Jackson a famous person on MTV in the 1990s. With stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of physically complicated dance techniques, such as the robotand the moonwalk. His distinctive musical sound and sound style influenced hip hop, pop and contemporary R&B artists.Jackson has donated and raised millions of dollars for beneficial causes through his foundation, charity singles and support of 39 charities. The singer has experienced health concerns since the early 1990s and conflicting reports regarding the state of his finances since the late 1990s. Jackson married twice and fathered three children.One of the few artists to have been inducted (进入)into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, his other achievements include multiple Guinness World Records—including one for Most Successful Entertainer of All Time—13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles in his solo career—more than any other male artist in the Hot 100 era—and the sale of over 750 million units worldwide.

His highly publicized personal life and his successful careerBA study has found that taste is linked to the brain chemicals which control our moods（心情）. When levels of these chemicals fall, which is thought to happen when a patient is suffering from depression（沮丧）, our sense of taste becomes less sensitive（敏感的）. The team from Bristol University says that their findings could explain why people lose their appetites （胃口）when they are depressed. Doctors at present have no way of knowing which medicine will work for which patient and often give the wrong drug to the patient. Their discovery could lead to the development of a taste test that allows doctors to quickly and exactly choose the right drug to treat a patient’s depression. Researcher Dr. Jan Melichar said, “Until now, we have had no easy way of deciding which is the best medicine for depression. As a result, we get it right about 60 to 80 percent of the time. It then takes up to four weeks to see if the drug is working, or if we need to change it. However, with a taste test, we may be able to get it right the first time. ”Dr. Melichar added, “If you can get people back to feeling better quicker, it is somethingthat is worth doing. ”The study, which was published in the Journal of Neuroscience, could also lead to treatments for problems such as being overweight. “It could be that some people may be eating more to get the same taste, because their sense of taste has become less sensitive, ” said Dr Melichar. “So, if you could somehow improve people’s sense of taste, they might eat less. ”55. When a person is depressed, ______ .A. he has a strong appetite for foodB. doctors can give him right medicineC. no chemicals in his brain reduceD. his sense of taste becomes less sensitive56. It is suggested in this passage that______ .A. if someone eats more, his sense of taste will be more sensitiveB. loss of appetite has nothing to do with one’s moodsC. a patient is suffering from depression when the levels of all brain chemicals riseD. depression could be a sign of the fall of some brain chemicals57. We learn from the passage that_______ .A. the research aims to solve people’s weight problemsB. patients are not always given the right medicine for their problemsC. people’s s ense of taste is more important than the other sensesD. people’s moods mainly depend on people’s appetiteCTwo Chinese living in South Africa were killed in a robbery (抢劫) on February 5, bringing the total number of Chinese killed in the country to four in less than a month.Chen Jianqing, 35, from Southeast China’s Fujian Province, who ran a shop with her husband in a small town 45 kilometers away from South African capital Johannesburg, was shot dead.“One of her business partners died later in the hospital, ” the Chinese consulate (领事馆) officials in Johannesburg said yesterday. “Local police are trying to find more information about the case. And we have told the victims’ (遇难者的) relatives and are helping them come to Johannesburg, ”Consul Wu Gang told China Daily. Chen’s husband was injured during the robbery but did not suffer seriously, said Wu.The robbery happened at about 5:45 p. m. local time and the armed robbers ran away after taking more than 50, 000 South African rand (US $8, 200) and some jewellery, Xinhua News Agency reported.The killing happened just three days after Chen Jingmin, a 23-year-old man from Qingdao, Shandong Province, was shot dead north outside Johannesburg by armed robbers. On January 10, a Hong Kong businessman was attacked and robbed at his home in Johannesburg and died the next day in the hospital. All these happened just in less than a month.According to records, there were more than 40 robberies attacking Chinese in South Africa last year, in which eight were killed. More than 100, 000 Chinese are doing various kinds of businesses in South Africa, according to a Chinese official in the country. An increasing number of them are becoming targets(目标) of robbers after buying big houses or luxury cars, the official said.58. The passage is probably______ .A. a business storyB. a scientific articleC. a newspaper reportD. an official document59. Who were killed on February 5 in a small town near Johannesburg?A.

Those Chinese who live near the capital of South AfricaC. Those Chinese who open shops selling Chinese goodsD. Those Chinese who leave others the impression of being richDThe Chinese People’s Liberation Army’s 15 female pilots riding 15 training jets K-8 appeared as the final formation of an air display at the end of a grand military parade in Beijing on Thursday morning.With music of a popular military song to express pilots’ enthusiasm for the nation’s blue sky echoing around Tian’anmen Square, five training jets flew over hundreds of thousands of spectators, leaving red, yellow and blue smoke trails behind to conclude the air show that lasts for nearly ten minutes.The aviators（飞行员）are China’s first generation of female fighter pilots who just graduated from the Air Force’s third aviation college with full A score s of their training courses. “Female pilots face more physical challenges and difficulties in operating a fighter jet for maneuvers such as twisting and flipping(筋斗), ” said Wang Baoqun, an official from the aviation college. “But considering precision and carefulness of operating the jet’s various apparatus, the female has shown more advantages than male pilots, ” Wang said. The college’s dean Wu Huiming said that the female fighter pilots have shown better endurance than males.The PLA’s Air Force started to recruit（吸收）female pilots in 1951 and has cultivated more than 300 female transporter pilots. The 15 female fighter pilots were recruited five years ago with another 19 competitive trainees, and only 16 of them successfully graduated from the aviation college this year.62.

Though born in San Francisco, he came of a New England family which returned there when he was ten. Like many other writers, he had a brief brush with college and then supported himself by trying different jobs. However, he had been brought up on a farm and he liked farming. Most of all, he liked to write but he could not support himself by writing. In his late 30s he moved to England, where he produced his first book.At the outbreak of World War I, Frost went back to farming in New Hampshire. Thereafter, although he made many journeys elsewhere, he considered the farm to be his home and its activities became the focus of his poetry.Frost's verses(诗, 诗体) are a part of a great tradition, shaped by the Roman poet Vergil, whose poetry was mainly about farming. However, though he used farm situations in much of his poetry, he gave them a wide application. He might write about stepping on a rake(耙子) and describe the feeling when it hit him, but he used the incident to show how life gave us lessons.Some talents in poetry are used up early, but not Frost's. He continued to publish fine poetry for fifty years. He reached the height of his popularity after World War II. If America had a national poet in the 20th century, it was Frost. He was chosen to read one of his poems at the inauguration（就职典礼）of the late President John F. Kennedy, the first poet ever so honored.The (81)__________________ of Robert Frost第七节简答题The computer makes doing schoolwork easier for me than it was for my mom and dad. For example, when writing book reports and stories, I use Microsoft Word instead of a pen and paper. That way, after my teacher checks my work, I can go back and make revisions without having to rewrite the whole thing. And Microsoft Word has a spell check! I use it all the time.For English class, we are reading The Outsiders by S. E. Hinton. As pre-reading homework, my teacher asked us to research teenage groups on the Internet. I tried Google, Encarta, and Yahoo first, and finally found an article on Time. com .For geography homework on the United States, I used Encarta to learn about the Mississippi River. I needed to find out how deep the river is, how its widths and depths are different, what states it runs through, and what kinds of fish live in it. I used the information to show how the geography of a country influences its economy. For example, the river’s trade paths, the number of fish caught in it and the tourists it attracts directly affect Southerners’ jobs and incomes.I never go to the library to do research. It takes too much time. Since I live in New York City and both my parents work, getting to the library isn’t always easy. For a big task or research project, I used to stay at the library to read, or sign out whatever books or magazines I needed. Now being able to find the information in my own living room makes everything a lot simpler. Online dictionaries and encyclopedias (百科全书) also save time.Sometimes, I think the computer spoils my generation because it is so easy --- at least physically. But computers are not like television, which does the thinking for you. You stillhave to use your mind. I prefer using a computer, easy, fun, and fast.91. What does the writer use when he writes book reports and stories? (no more than 3 words)92. Why doesn’t the writer go to the lib rary to do research? (no more than 6 words)93. How does the writer complete a big assignment or research project at present? (no more than 10 words)94. Why does the author prefer using a computer? (no more than 11 words)第八节书面表达二班的同学进行了一场有关英语学习的讨论。

I found an ad for selling greeting cards in the back of a children’s magazine. I thought to myself I could do this. I begged my mother to let me send for the kit (成套工具).Two weeks later the kit arrived. The next three hours later, I returned home with no card and a pocket full ofmoney shouting, “Mama, all the people couldn’t wait to buy my cards!〞 A salesperson was born.When I was twelve years old, my father took me to see Zig Ziegler. I remember sitting in the dark hall listening to Mr. Ziegler raise everyone’s spirits up to ceiling. I left there feeling like I could do anything. When we got to the car, I turned to my father and said, “Dad, I want to make people feel like that.〞 My father asked me what I meant. “I want to be a motivational speaker just like Mr. Ziegler,〞 I replied. A dream was born.Recently, I began pursuing my dream of motivating others. I realized that everything I had accomplished —the graduate degree, the successful sales career, speaking appointments, training and managing for a major fortune100 company as a senior manager— had prepared me for this moment. I told my boss who was a great leader I would leave the company though I might not reach such a height in career. He told me to proceed and he believed I would succeed.Having made that decision, I was immediately tested. One week after I gave notice, my husband was laid offfrom his job. We had recently bought a new home and needed both incomes to make the monthly mortgage (抵押) payment and now we were done to no income. I even planned to turn back to my former company, knowing they wanted me to stay but I was certain that if I went back, I would never leave. I decided I still wanted to move forward rather than end up with a mouth full of “if onlys〞 later on. A motivational speaker was born.When I held fast to my dream, even during the tough times, the miracles〔奇迹〕really began to happen. In ashort time period my husband found a better job. We didn’t miss a mortgage payment. And I was able to book several speaking appointments with new clients (客户). I discovered the incredible power of dreams. I loved my old job, my workmates and the company I left, but it was time to get on with my dream. To celebrate my success I had a local artist paint my new office as a garden. At the top of one wall she marked, “The world always makes way for the dreamer.〞24.Why was the kit sent for?A. Selling greeting cards.B. Collecting greeting cards.C. Buying greeting cards.D. Sending greeting cards.25.When did the author decide to become a motivational speaker?A.After buying a new home by mortgage.B.After giving notice to leave her secure position in the company.C.After finding a job in a major fortune 100 company.D.After listening to Mr. Ziegler’s inspiring speech.26.The following statements about the author are correct EXCEPT ________ .A.She was once an excellent manager.B.She left her post at the height of her career.C.She was not sure whether the former company could accept her.D.She didn’t miss paying the monthly mortgage payment.27.What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph?A.Carry on with your dreams and you will be successful.B.Risk everything you have for a dream and you will succeed.C.The world belongs to all dreamers.D.Everyone will find their dreams.CLong before iphones, the cigarette was the companion of choice for restlessness. And long before Facebook and WeChat, it was tobacco that promised to better your social life. Now, quitting smartphones has become the new quitting smoking.Of course, technology does not yellow your teeth, cause disease or lead to cancer. But some individuals are soconcerned that device addiction is damaging their mental health. In order to reduce their dependence, even in Silicon Valley, people are turning off the messages that constantly buzz for their attention, banning smartphones from the bedroom and, curiously, changing the colors on their screens to a less tempting scale of gray.The big tech companies will have to work out how to respond to this new generation of quitters.Facebook isthe first to go public with its attempt, hoping its recent move can make the social network more homely.Last year the tech industry got a bad name—Big Tech—with unfortunate echoes(一共鸣) of other industries that have faced fierce opposition, including Big Tobacco. Like them, the techindustry has to reduce concern from a new generation of activist shareholders(股东) that are questioning its role in the world. These campaigns are never as fierce as those faced by Big Tobacco. In the 1990s, socially responsible investors refused to put money in tobacco stocks.It is far difficult for investors to challenge Big Tech and hard to separate the good these companies do in theworld—connecting old friends and giving space for people to share their ideas—from the bad. In the meantime, stopping using technology remains problematic. In The W orld W ithout Mind: The Existential Threat of Big T ech, Franklin Foer argues that tech should be seen in a similar way to junk food: a convenience that some reject for more continuing nutrition.So we need to do more to turn the tide. In the same way that public service announcements made smokingaround your children taboo(禁忌),we can warn parents against losing themselves in their smartphones while taking care of kids.We can also create no-smartphone zones at dinner. Eventually smartphones could be banned from all public places and help us give our attention to the people around us instead.28.How did people keep close relationships with others in the past?A. By smoking.B. By drinking.C. By phoningD. By dining out.29.Why is the tech industry called Big Tech?A. It plays a bad role in the world.B. It is as big as Big Tobacco.C. It has an unfortunate name.D. It is a giant in Silicon Valley.30.What can we infer from Franklin Foer’s argument about the tech?A. It promotes social development.B. It is still favored by some people.C. It is worse than Big Tobacco.D. It offers continuing nutrition.31.Which can be the best title for the passage?A.Creating a No Smartphone LifeB.Smartphones Enrich Our Social LifeC.Smoking Does Greater Harm Than Smartphones DoD.Quitting Smartphones Is the New Quitting SmokingDComedy and PsychologyEarlier this year I did a part-time comedy course. The class was taught by Ryan, a professionalhad performed a show, which wasn’t originally meant to be a comedy. However, the audience laughed at my first joke, then continued to laugh throughout the routines that were meant to be serious. So it was the audience who told me I was funny, but I didn’ t understand why or how to control the comic (滑稽的) moments. So, I joined the course to learn.“Turn off your editor that makes you say the right thing and remember how to be a child,〞explained Ryan. “Don’t try to be clever. Don’t try too hard to be funny…and knowing all about the theory of humor is unlikely to help you much. Just behave in a silly way. That’s what people want to see on stage.〞 Ryan would help us loosen up by saying things like, “Wander around talking to others, but make sure that you’re the lowest status person here.〞I’d say that understanding the psychology of humor has actually helped. Recently I came across the bookInside Jokes: Using Humor to Reverse-Engineer the Mind. Its main idea is that any self-directed intelligent system will need to correct its own fault. There’s a risk that the occasional error will be made. If this was boring or burdensome, we’d be less willing to do it. However, evolution has made the process fun.Here’s a joke in the book: Two fish are in a tank. One says to the other, “Do youknow how to drive thisthing?〞 It works on the principle that we have started to imagine one thing—that the tank is the typical container people keep fish in—and, just in time, the following words tell us that our first assumption was wrong—it’s a heavy vehicle. For correctly figuring out the error, we are rewarded with a pleasurable feeling. The joke is an efficient way of encouraging this natural reaction, and comedians have become experts in slightly touching this mental funny-bone in order to make us laugh.Ryan was right when he said that knowing the theory of humor w ouldn’t help us that much as acomedy.During one exercise in the course, four of us were told to perform an opera. Susan and Caroline sang earnestly on either side of the stage, and I brought Henry to the floor, where we wrestled (摔跤) each other likeout-of-control teenagers. The rest of the group was in uncontrollable fits of laughter. As a performer, I’ ll neverappreciate just why it seemed so funny. But the point is that I would never have written this on the paper. It was a joyous, found moment.32.Why did the author attend the comedy course?A.He wanted to see how the theories worked in practice.B.He discovered he had some natural ability in comedy.C.He worried about how other performers would find him.D.He got unpleasant experiences when performing a comedy.33.Ryan required the people on the comedy course to .A. copy their favorite performanceB. imagine other people’ s reactionsC. help themselves feel comfortableD. behave in a more playful manner34.What is the purpose of the joke mentioned in Paragraph 4?A.To discuss what humor brings about exactly.B.To give an example of another kind of humor.C.To prove the point about psychology of humor.D.To show why some people are funnier than others.35.What view does the author put forward in the end?A.Visual humor is what appeals to people most.B.What people find funny is often unpredictable.C.Theories explaining humor tend to be mistaken.D.Learning comic skills proves to be a difficult task.第二节〔一共5小题；每一小题2分，满分是10分〕根据短文内容，从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。
