In many ways, a diary and a blog are very 37 ; But what make bolgging different from writing in a(n) 38 diary?The biggest difference is that a blog is much more 39 than a diary. Usually，a teenager treats his diary like a book full of 40 that he does not want to 41 with others.It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog 42 a diary will probably write nearly the same information.I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her 43 . She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test.44 I was her age, I wrote about the same thing, but 45 in my dairy. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was 46 that my sister might read it.The biggest 47 with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend during high school and wrote something 48 about him in my diary, he would never know. 49 , if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend might 50 her blog and get angry.There are also 51 to blogging, of course. If I was feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary, ”Nobody cares about me”. because no one would 52 about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friend would quickly 53 and tell her how much they 54 her. Blog help people 55 in contact with their friend and know what thepeople around them are doing.36. A. the same B. interesting C. difficult D. daily37. A. simple B. special C. similar D. different38.

Get up and read or watch TV until you are sleepy, then return to bed.If you continue to have trouble sleeping, ask your doctor for help or go to a sleep –disorders center.56．According to the passage, there is probably if you are not able to fall asleep or stay asleep.A．a bad way of sleeping B．a disorder in sleepC．a physical reason D．a problem caused by the brain57．If you have trouble sleeping, you should try to .A．ask a doctor for help or go to a sleep – disorders centerB．put down the time you do things every dayC．do more physical exerciseD．find out the cause first58．According to the passage, which of the following would be the best way to help you sleep well?A．Taking some sleeping pills every day.

Thank goodness!"School was over and I was tired. I sat at the front of the school bus.Janie, the driver, always tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere by talking. I try to listen politely, but usually I’m too busy thinking about my day. On this day, however, her talk was worth listening to."My father’s ill," she said to no one in particular. I could see worry in her eyes. I had never seen her like this before. She always meets students with a smile.With a sudden chance of interest, I asked, "What’s wrong with him?"With her eyes wet and her voice unusual, she answered, "Heart trouble. " Her eyes lowered as she continued, "I’ve already lost my mum, so I don’t think I can stand losing him." I couldn’t answer. My heart ached for her.I sat on the seat thinking of the great pain my own mother was thrown into when her father died.I saw how hard it was, and still is, for her. I wouldn’t want anyone to go through that.Suddenly I realized Janie wasn’t only a bus driver, which was just her job. She had a whole world of family and cares too.I shouldn’t have been so selfish. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and brushed her off as unimportant.I shouldn’t have been so selfish and self-centered. Understanding people is an art.60. When the students get on the school bus, Janie usually__________.A. listens to musicB. talks about her own worryC. sits on her seat without wordsD. meets them with a smile61. After she learned Janie’s story, the writer thought of__________.A. her father’s deathB. her mother’s painC. the ache of her own heartD. the pain of Janie’s parents62. The writer felt herself selfish because she had__________.A. thought of Janie as nothing but a driverB. made only a few friends in the schoolC. hardly thought of herselfD. never listened to others63. In this passage the writer tries to tell us that__________.A. losing parents makes people sad and helplessB. understanding the people around us takes timeC. we should learn to understand the people around usD. it’s not right to judge the people around us by their clothesCPerhaps a parent’s most important contribution toward raising a trustful child is to develop a relationship founded on trust. A child of any age will feel proud and grown-up if parents frequently show their trust. In court a defendant(被告) is innocent until proved guilty. But in the family, a teenager “defendant” is too often assumed guilty.Even when the child is caught in a complete lie, this should not be the end of trust. A parent can tell a child that a single lie is forgivable. Yet it should be clear that if lies continue, the child, like the boy who cried wolf, will suffer loss of trust.When my wife and I discovered that our son Tom, then 13, had lied about throwing a party while we were away, we grounded him for a month. We also told Tom that we could no longer trust him, and we could not allow him to stay alone overnight again. This loss of freedom was an important lesson; he learned how hard it is to live with people when they don’t trust him. As a result, now more than three years later we can again trust Tom to stay alone overnight.Parents must always remember there is no easy answer to this universal problem of lying.We can set a good example, allow for privacy, monitor friendship, develop trust and punish wrong doing, but still we discover our child has lied to us. Finally that’s why there is a need for trust on both sides of a parent-child relationship. Lying destroys closeness and friendship. For that reason, parents should always try to give a child the feeling that they can be trusted with the truth. Parents may start with a child’s trust, but as the child grows older, parents must earn it. 64．When the writer and his wife discovered that their son had lied, they _________.A．took him from all his freedom B．decided that they could never trust him againC．forbade him to stay alone overnight for more than three yearsD．arranged for him to live with people who do not trust him for more than three years 65．We can infer from the passage that very often ________.A．parents don’t trust their child as they shouldB．defendants are usually proved not guilty in courtC．parents have too much trust in their child D．some children are founded guilty in court 66．According to the passage, the writer believes that _____________.A．parents shouldn’t punish their children even if they lieB．it is not easy to deal with the problem of lying as parentsC．there are many effective ways to prevent children from lyingD．a child will stop telling lies as he grows up67．What does the underlined word “ground” mean in the passage?A．To teach someone the basic things they should know in order to be able to do something.B．To stop a child going out with their friends as a punishment for behaving badly.C．To put someone on the ground and beat him.D．To ask someone to stay on the ground and not to move.DA typical Chinese Internet user is a young male who prefers instant messaging to e-mail, favors news, music and games sites and seldom makes online purchases（购物）. According to a study, about two-thirds of survey participants use the Internet for news —often entertainment-related — or for online games. About half download music and movies.They also tend to prefer instant messaging to e-mail, and they are depending on the Internet more frequently than before to communicate with others who have the same professions, hobbies and political interests. Online purchases still remain unpopular in China. Three-quarters of users surveyed have never bought anything over the Internet, and only 10 percent make purchases even once a month. Among those who do buy online, most pay for entertainment while others buy phone cards, or computer hardware or software.“Many people don’t trust the quality of goods bought online,” Guo said Wednesday. “If they buy it in a store and don’t like it, they can easily bring it back.”The survey was done in five major cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu andChangsha. Results do not necessarily project countrywide because Internet use in rural areas is lower than in cities. Guo describes the typical netizen in the five cities surveyed as young, male,richer and more highly educated. Males make up two-thirds of the Internet community, and more than 80 percent of users are under 24. Among people ages 25 to 29, 60 percent to 80 percent goonline.China has more than 100 million people online, second in the world to the United States.68.

Which of the following words fails to describe the typical netizens in the five cities?A. well educatedB. richerC. femaleD. young 第四部分：任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)请认真阅读下面短文，并依照所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。

More than 60 million of them are thrown away each day. Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products.A San Francisco start-up company called Rothy’s, however, turns this plastic waste into environmentally friendly shoes. Roth Martin is the company’s co-founder. He explains how they turn plastic into soft material for women’s feet. They take the plastic, clean it, and break it down into small pieces. Then they press them through a device that makes soft fibers. Those fibers are then combined together. This is done by a 3D machine. It is designed to reduce waste while making the shoes. The knitted stuff and the inner part of the shoe are then attached to the shoe’s outer part, called the sole (鞋底). This outer sole is also made from environmentally friendly material: responsibly sourced no-carbon rubber.Rothy’s shoes are sold online. They are flat shoes, with either a rounded or pointed toe. They come in different colors and designs. They cost either $ 125 or $ 145 per pair, depending on the design. After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them last year, the demand for the shoes grew. Martin says there is no shortage of material to fill that demand. “We’re not going to run out of water bottles any time soon. So we have a limitless supply of material, and I think thatis a good sign for our future.” When the environmentally friendly shoes wear out, customers can return them at no cost to a company that uses the recycled materials to make other products.For now, the shoes are only available to be shipped in the United States. However, the company says it will add international shipping in the near future.4．What does the underlined word knitted in the third paragraph mean?A．attached B．combinedC．fixed D．repaired5．Which of the following directly helped to increase the sales of Rothy’s shoes?A．The design and color.B．The reasonable price.C．The star power of Gwyneth Paltrow.D．The company’s advertisement.6．What is the purpose of the text?A．To introduce a new way of recycling plastic waste.B．To describe the process of making shoes.C．To advertise a new kind of shoes.D．To stress the importance of environmental protection.3.（8分）CThere was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers，he used two buckets(水桶).One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one，which had seen many years of service，but was now past its best.Every morning，the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path，one on each side，to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled. The old bucket felt very ashamed(惭愧的)because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds，much water had leaked(渗漏)along the path.Sometimes the new bucket would say，"See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me water the flowers every day! I don’t know why he still uses you. What a waste of space you are!"And all that the old bucket could say was，"I know I am not very useful，but I can only do my best. I am happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me ，at least.’’One day，the gardener heard that kind of conversation. After watering the flowers as usual，he said，"You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back，and I want you to look carefully along the path."Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed，on the side where the new bucket was carried，there was just bare earth；on the other side where the old bucket was carried，there was a joyous row of wild flowers，leading all the way to the garden.7．What was the old bucket ashamed of?A．Its past.B．Its aging.C．Its manner.D．Its leaking. 8．What does the underlined word "dilapidated" probably mean?A．Dirty.B．Dark.C．Worn out.D．Ordinary-looking.9．The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to________.A．take pity on the old one B．laugh at the old oneC．show off its good look D．praise the gardener's kindness10．Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?A．Because it was used to keep a balance.B．Because it stayed in its best condition.C．Because it had its own advantage.D．Because it was thought of as a treasure.二、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）4.（10分）二：七选五（每小题2分，满分10分）When the winter comes, millions of Americans realize they don’t feel as happy as usual, and may be depressed If you’re one of them, you may be suffering from “seasonal affective disorder” or SAD, whose symptoms include exhaustion, difficulty concentrating, sleep problems, body aches and pains, and a loss of interest in activities you normally enjoy. 11．Take extra Vitamin D．Researchers at the University of Georgia analyzed more than 100 articles that examined the link between Vitamin D and depression.

AA new book called “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother” by Amy Chua has caused a debate (争论) about cultural differences in parenting. Amy Chua is a teacher in an American university and both of her parents are Chinese. In the book, Ms. Chua writes about how she taught her daughters. She told NBC television that she had a clear list of what her daughters were not allowed to do, such as having a play date, watching TV or playing computer games and getting any grade less than an A.Many people are against Amy Chua’s parenting style (风格), even her husband, who is American. They say it is rude and unfair to children. But she says her parents raised her and her three sisters in that way.Ms. Chua says a fter her younger daughter shouted “I hate my life!I hate you!” she decided to retreat because she was afraid of losing her daughter. But she also says American parents often have low expectations of their chil dren’s abilities.“The debate is about what it means to be a successful parent and what it means to be a successful child,” said Stacy De Broff, who has written four books on parenting. She says Amy Chua’s parenting style is not limited to Chinese families. It is a traditional way of parenting among immigrants (移民). They hope to get a better future for their children.She also sees a risk (风险). When children have no time to be social or to develop their own interests, they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life. De Broff advises parents to develop their own style of parenting and not just repeat the way they were raised.21. Which of the following words can best describe Amy Chua?A. Polite.B. Cruel.C. Strict.D. Popular.22. The underlined word “retreat” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _____.A. give upB. go onC. go outD. give out23. According to Ms. De Broff, _____.A. Amy Chua’s parenting style should be forbiddenB. Americans should learn from Amy ChuaC. parents should have their own parenting styleD. Amy Chua’s style is bad for children’s growth24. In which part of a newspaper can you read the passage?A. Business.B. Entertainment.C. Sports.D. Culture.BCleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts areeasy––they’re given after all. Choices can be hard.––Jeff BezosI got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2,300 percent per year. I’d never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I’d been marrie d for a year. I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn’t work since most start-ups don’t, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. MacKenzie told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I’d been a garage inventor. I’d always wanted to be an inventor, and she wanted me to follow my passion.I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and finally said, “That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn’t already have a good job.” That logic made some sense to me, and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but finally, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn’t think I’d regr et trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I’m proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices.25．What inspired the author with the idea of building an online bookstore?A. His dream of being an inventor.B. The support of his wife.C. The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.D. Millions of exciting titles.26．We can know from the passage that _______.A. the boss thought the idea was suitable for the authorB. the author might not regret if he failed the ideaC. the author wanted someone else to try the ideaD. the author might go back to his boss if he failed27．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Cleverness and Kindness B. The Starting of AmazonC. Following My PassionD. We Are What We ChooseCOne of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. But how can you be a good friendat school?Listen —Listen when they are talking. Don’t say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes it’s not necessary for you to ha ve anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.Help them — If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try to put them first, but make sure you don’t do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes in case they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.Be there for them — Try to make something for your friend to help make them feel better in hard times. Making cards and encouraging them are among the nicest things you can do for a friend. Marilyn Monroe, a famous U.S. actor, once said, “I often make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control. But if you can’t stay with me at my worst, you are sure not to deserve (值得) to be with me at my best.” Always remember this! If you don’t want to stay with you r friends when they’re in hard times, then you don’t deserve to be with them when they’re having a good time!Make plans — Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, go for ice cream, have a party, go to a movie and so on. Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy. By planning things together, you both can have a good time. And you’ll remember these things when you’re all old!28. While your friend is talking to you about his or her feelings, you should _____.A. give him or her some adviceB. just listen unless askedC. calm him or her downD. share your feelings as well29. When we provide help for our friends, we should _____.A. try to do everything for themB. put them before ourselvesC. change their bad habits firstD. ignore their faults30. What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe’s words?A. Life without a friend is death.B. A friend is easier lost than found.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. A man is known by his friends.31. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to find a good friend.B. How to help friends in trouble.C. How to be a good friend.D. How to make more friends.DIn Africa, Christmas day begins with groups of carolers (欢唱颂歌的人) walking to and fro through the village, along the roadway, by the houses of the churchmen, singing the lovely carols known the world around. Often people may be awakened by a group of carolers beginning to gather at the church. They return home to make final preparation as to theclothes one must wear and also as to his offering for the Christmas service. The most important part of their Christmas service is the love offering. This is the gift in honor of Jesus. At about 8 or 9 o’clock, everyone makes their way to the celebration of the birthday of Jesus. Everyone who attends the service goes forward to lay down their gift upon the raised platform near the Communion table. Not one person will attend the service without giving a gift.Christmas in South Africa is a summer holiday. There is no snow, but it has many flowers, many beautiful varieties of wild flowers being in their full pride.In Ghana, most churches announce the coming of Christmas by decorating the church and homes beginning with the first week in Advent, four weeks before Christmas. This season happens to be the cocoa harvest time, so it is a time of wealth. Everyone returns home from wherever they might be, such as farms or mines.In Africa, it is the traditional dinner of turkey, roast beef, mince pies, suckling pig, yellow rice with raisins, vegetables, and plum pudding, or crackers. In the afternoon, families go out into the country and usually there are games or bathing in the warm sunshine, and then home in the cool of the evening. Boxing Day is also a public holiday of real relaxation usually spent in the open air, which falls on December 26.32．The writer of this passage mainly wants to _________.A. persuade us to have a holiday in AfricaB. introduce to us when Christmas came into beingC. tell us how people celebrate Christmas in AfricaD. describe some important holidays in Africa33．The correct order of the following festivals should be ________.A. Ch ristmas→ Boxing Day→ AdventB. Boxing Day→ Christmas→ AdventC. Christmas→ Advent→ Boxing DayD. Advent→ Christmas→ Boxing Day34．If you visit South Africa on Christmas day, you’ll find ________.A. everyone returns home to harvest cocoaB. people enjoy a traditional dinnerC. the church and homes are being decoratedD. it is snowing heavily everywhere35．In Africa, the traditional dinner for Christmas including the following EXCEPT ________.A. pumpkin piesB. yellow riceC. crackersD. turkey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。

高二上学期英语第二次(12月)月考试卷真题
高二上学期英语第二次（12月）月考试卷一、阅读理解1. 阅读理解Generally speaking, waiting rooms are always filled with a lotof impatient people. However, a project carried out by The Observer suggests that people regard these spaces as a place ofrefuge , a window in their tightly scheduled lives.Ella Doroudy, Margate StationWe were at the beach for the day, and now are on our way home.We don’t have to wait very long, because we checked the timetable so we got herein time for the train. I just chat with my mates, really, and listen to music untilthe train comes. Waiting with other people is easier because you can kill time whenyou’re talking about stuff.Caroline Lacey, Streatham Dental CenterI don’t really get nervous about seeing the dentist, but sincethese two fillings came out I’ve been in sharp pain. It’s very bright and airyhere, so it’s quite calming. Usually I kill time by reading magazines. I’ve beencoming to the dentist as and when I need to, but now it’s got to be regular.Katie Hawkins, Model CastingI was a bit l ate today, which I’m quite pleased about becausesome of these girls have been waiting ages. I can’t help but look at everyone elsea bit—I look at the other girls and think: “I wonder if they’ll like herbetter than they like me.” While I’m waiting, I’m thinking: “Oh come on.I do have a life!”Paul Thomas, Royal London HospitalI feel pretty indifferent while I’m waiting here, to be honest. It’s something I’ve got very used tosince my motorbike accident seven years ago. I’ve had about 32 operations so far.It’s no good rushing in thinking you’re going to escape in five minutes, so I justsit back and people-watch, really.（1）What is Ella doing at Margate Station?A .

Waiting for the train to return home.（2）How does Caroline feel after she enters the waiting room?A . Bored.B . Excited.C . Relaxed.D .

Confidence.（4）Who enjoys looking at the people around him or her while waiting?A . Paul Thomas.B . Ella Doroudy.C . Katie Hawkins.D . Caroline Lacey.2. 阅读理解Throughout history scientists have risked their health and theirlives in their search for the truth.Sir Isaac Newton, the seventeenth century scientist, was verysmart, but that didn’t stop him from doing some pretty stupid things. In his laboratoryinCambridge he often did the strangest experiments. Once, while testing how lightpasses through lenses , he put a long needle into his eye, pushed it to the back,and then moved it around just to see what would happen. Luckily, nothing long-lastingdid. On another occasion he stared at the sun for as long as he could bear, to discoverwhat effect this would have on his sight. Again he escaped suffering permanentdamage, though he had to spend some days in a darkened room before his eyes recovered.In the 1750s the Swedish chemist Karl Scheele was the first personto find a way to produce phosphorus . He in fact discovered eight more chemicalelements including chlorine , though he didn’t get any praise for them. He was a very cleverscientist, but his one failing was a curious habit of tasting a little of everysubstance he worked with. This risky practice finally caught up with him, and in1786 he was found dead in his laboratory surrounded by a large number of dangerouschemicals, any of which might have been responsible for his death.Eugene Shoemaker was a respected geologist. He spent a largepart of his life studying craters on the moon, and how they were formed,and later did research into the comets of the planet Jupiter. In 1997 he and hiswife were in the Australian desert where they went every year to search for placeswhere comets might have hit the earth. While driving in the Tanami desert, normallyone of the emptiest places in the world, another vehicle crashed into them and Shoemakerwas killed on the spot. Some of his ashes were sent to the moon aboard the LunarProspector spacecraft and left there — he is theonly person who has had this honor.（1）What does the underlined word “permanent” in Paragraph 2 mean?A . Brief.B . Slight.C . Lasting.D . Ordinary.（2）What did Karl Scheele like doing when performing experiments?A . Tasting chemicals.B . Staying in the empty lab.C . Experimenting in darkness.D . Working together with others.（3）What special honor was Shoemaker given after his death?A . He was buried in the Tanami desert.B . Some of his ashes were placed on the moon.C . One comet of Jupiter was named after him.D . A spacecraft carrying him traveled around Jupiter.（4）The text is mainly about three great scientists’ _____.A . special honorsB . great achievementsC . famous experimentsD . suffering in the job3. 阅读理解Here is an astonishing and significant fact: Mental work alonecan’t make us tired. It sounds absurd. But a few years ago, scientists tried tofind out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue. To the amazement of these scientists,they discovered that blood passing through the brain, when it is active, shows nofatigue at all! If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we would find itfull of fatigue toxinsandfatigue products. But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein, itwould show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day.So far as the brain is concerned, it can work as well and swiftlyat the endof eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning. The brainis totally tireless. So what makes us tired?Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from ourmental and emotionalattitudes. One of England’s most outstanding scientists, J.A. Hadfield, says, “The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer isof mental origin. In fact, fatigue of purely physical origin is rare. “Dr.Brill, a famous American scientist, goes even further. He declares, “One hundredpercent of the fatigue of a sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems.”What kinds of emotions make sitting workerstired? Joy? Satisfaction? No!A feeling of being bored, anger, anxiety, tenseness,worry, a feeling of not being appreciated—those are the emotions that tire sittingworkers. Hard work by itself seldom causes fatigue. We get tired because our emotionsproduce nervousness in the body.（1）What surprised the scientists a few years ago?A . Fatigue toxins could hardly be found in a laborer’s blood.B . The brain could work for many hours without fatigue.C . Albert Einstein didn’t feel worn out after a day’s workD . A mental worker’s blood w as filled with fatigue toxins.（2）According to the author, which of the following can make sitting workers tired?A . Challenging mental work.B . Unpleasant emotions.C . Endless tasks.D . Physical labor.（3）What’s the author’s attitude towards the scientists’ ideas?A . He doubts them.B . He agrees with them.C . He argues against them.D . He hesitates to accept them.（4）We can infer from the passage that in order to stay energetic, sitting workers need to .A . enjoy their workB . have some good foodC . exercise regularlyD . discover fatigue toxins4. 阅读理解The English language is full of phrases about the weather. Someof these phrases are easy to understand, but others are not really about the weatherat all. If you say you “hit rough weather”, you may not b e struck by areal storm, but you do experience difficulties or problems. If you don’t know whatsuch phrases mean, they might leave you “in a fog “!In English, you can “shoot the breeze”, or have aninformal chat. But things can also be a breeze. If you ta ke an exam and find itvery easy, you’d tell your friends: “It was a breeze!” The wind can alsobring information. You can “get wind of” a piece of news, and if someone”knows which way the wind blows”, they have a good idea about how thingswill work out. But don’t “throw caution to the wind” — that means takinga great risk!Clouds sometimes bring rain, and in English they often representproblems or difficulties. If someone “sees a cloud on the horizon “, there may be problems ahead. Andif someone is “under a cloud”, then people think the person might havedone something wrong. But clouds are notalways bad; in fact, people say that “everycloud has a silver lining”. This means that there is a good side to every situation,no matter how bad it may seem. You may even end up “on cloud nine”, whichmeans you are very happy!

Her family was very poor. She decided to help her family even when she was very young, so she learned to use a gun, and began hunting (打猎) animals for food. She could shoot them without losing the important parts of the meat．Soon her shooting ability became well known. When she was sixteen, she was invited to a competition with a famous marksman (神枪手), Frank Butler. Annie surprised everyone by winning the competition. Later that year she and Frank married.In 1882, Annie Oakley and Frank Butler started putting on shows together. Frank Butler was the star of the show and she was his assistant. The famous Native American leader, Sitting Bull, thought so highly of her shooting ability that he called her “Little Sure Shot”. Later Annie Oakley became the star of the show and Frank Butler was her assistant. Posters (海报) for the show called her the “Champion Markswoman”.During World War One, Annie Oakley wanted to train a group of women volunteers for the army, but the United States did not accept it. She gave American soldiers shooting lessons, and traveled across the country visiting many training camps. She gave shooting performances and raised money to support the American soldiers．Annie Oakley died on November 3, 1926．Eighteen days later, Frank Butler died too．9．According to the passage, Annie Oakley ______．A．lived a hard life as a childB．often went hunting with her familyC．joined the army during World War OneD．trained women soldiers during the war10．Which of the following shows best that Annie was skilled at shooting?A．She put on shows as her husband’s assistant．B．She raised money to support the American soldiers．C．She offered to help the army by training women to be soldiers．D．She could shoot animals without harming the important parts of the meat．11．Which of the following is in the RIGHT order about Annie?a．She took part in a shooting competition．b．She gave shooting demonstrations and raised money．c．She hunted animals for food．d．She put on shows with Frank Butler．e．She was called the "Champion Markswoman"．f．She married Frank Butler．A．a, c, d, f, b, e B．a, c, b, e, f, dC．c, a, d, f, e, b D．c, a, f, d, e, b12．Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A．Annie Oakley—Markswomen．B．Frank Butler—Champion Marksman．C．A Couple of Marksmen．D．Trained Woman Soldier．4.（6分）DIf English means endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.The study also found the effect is greater, the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of "early bilinguals" who had learnt asecond language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.Scans showed that grey matter density(密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference."Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language," said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link betweenbilingualism and maths skills．"Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible(灵活的), "he said．"You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas."The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and 34．Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better．"Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world," explained the scientists.13.The main subject talked about in this passage is ______ .A．science on learning a second languageB．man’s ability of learning a second languageC．1anguage can help brain powerD．1anguage learning and maths study14．In the second paragraph, the writer mentions “exercise” in order to ______ .A．say language is also a kind of physical laborB．prove that one needs more practice when he(she) is learning a languageC．to show the importance of using the language when you learn the languageD．make people believe language learning helps grey matter work well15．The underlined word “bilingual” probably means ______ .A．a researcher on language learningB．a person who is good at learning foreign languagesC．a person who can speak two languagesD．an active language learner二、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）5.（10分）第二节七选五（共5小题，每题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Walking closer you drop the camera until you're close enough to simply watch and listen.The water gently touches his boat.His tools hit the dock(码头),making ringing noises.The dog has discovered you sitting so quietly on the hill and although he’s been playing in the water he knows no sense of politeness and runs toward you—only a slight delay in his step as his owner shouts out a command.It slows his progress toward you,but only slightly.That dog is about to give you the wettest and hairiest hug you've had in weeks.The dog has opened the door to conversation now and as the dog leads you to the fisherman you glance toward the sound of an approaching car,his wife,here to pick him up and transport his catch back into town. The immediate polite conversations unfold—I’m an obvious American and don’t deny it,they’re curious as to why such a healthy and pretty young lady such as myself is wandering the cold hills in such a remote area of Ireland.“Single are ya?Well why in the world are ya traveling by yourself,you’ll never meet a man that way?”demands the wife.She’s a tough customer and can’t understand my answer“because I enjoy it,”evidenced by her long-suffering sigh and a muttering(喃喃自语)about“young people”.There's a secret spot in Ireland,and I’m not going to tell you where it is.I’m not going to tell where it is because I know there’re other Irish towns out there just like it—all laced with joy of simplicity.16.What is the writer’s identity?A.A detective.B.A traveler.C.A journalist.D.A fisherman17.Which word best describes the wife’s reaction to the author?A.Rudeness.B.Curiosity.C.Envy.D.Worry.18.How does the writer feel about Ireland?A.Full of secrets.B.Not developed.C.A place with simple joy.D.A place with beautiful scenery.BRecently,environmentalists have encouraged us to buy local food.This reduces“food miles”,that is, the distance food travels to get from the producer to the seller.They reason that the higher the food miles, the more carbon emissions.Buying local.food,therefore,has a lower carbon footprint and is more environmentally friendly.However,the real story is not as simple as that.If our aim is to reduce carbon emissions,we must look at the whole farming process,not just transportation.According to a2008study,only11%of carbon emissions in the food production process result from transportation,and only4%came from the final delivery of the product from the producer to the seller.In fact,imported food from other countries often has a lower carbon footprint than locally grown food. Take apples,for example.In autumn,when apples are harvested,the best thing for British people to do is to buy British apples.However,the apples we buy in winter or spring have been kept refrigerated for months,and this uses up a lot of energy.In spring,therefore,it is more energy-saving to import them from New Zealand,where they are in season.Heating also uses a lot of energy,which is why growing tomatoes in heated greenhouses in the UK is less environmentally friendly than importing them from Spain,where the tomatoes grow well in the local climate.We must also take into consideration the type of transport.Transporting food by air creates about50 times more emissions than shipping it.However,only a small number of goods are flown to foreign countries,and these are usually high value,perishable(易腐烂的)goods which we cannot produce locally, such as seafood and out-of-season berries.Even then,these foods may not have a higher carbon footprint than locally grown food.For example,beans flown in from Kenya are grown in sunny fields using human labour and natural fertilisers,unlike in Britain,where we use oil-based fertilisers and machinery.Therefore, the total carbon footprint is still lower.It’s also worth remembering that a product’s journey does not end at the supermarket.The distance customers travel to buy their food,and the kind of transport they use will also add to its carbon footprint.So driving a long way to shop for food will wipe out any environmental benefits of buying locally grown produce.Recently,some supermarkets have been trying to raise awareness of food miles by labelling foods with stickers that show it has been imported by air.But the message this gives is too simple.Lots of different factors contribute to a food’s carbon footprint besides the distance it has travelled.19.What can we learn about“food miles”?A.It influences how people deliver and transport food.B.It will increase if people are encouraged to buy local food.C.It is the key factor contributing to a food’s carbon emissions.D.It shows how far the food goes from farmland to supermarkets.20.The author will probably agree that________.A.transporting food by air is the most energy-saving type of shippingB.storing local food creates more carbon emissions than importing foodC.human labour and natural fertilisers can increase the carbon footprintD.growing out-of-season food always takes less energy than importing food in season21.What is the author’s attitude towards cutting food miles to reduce carbon emissions?A.Supportive.B.Confused.C.Negative.D.Doubtful.CFinal exams are around the comer---but that won’t stop some teenagers putting in the least effort.This may be because their brains aren’t developed enough to properly assess how high the stakes(利害关系)are, and adapt their behavior accordingly.Catherine Insel,at Harvard University,and her team asked adolescents between the ages of13and20 to play a game while monitoring their brains.In some rounds of the game,participants could earn20cents for a correct response,while an incorrect one would cost them10cents.But in rounds with higher stakes, correct responses were worth a dollar,and wrong answers lost the participants50cents.The team found that while the older volunteers performed better in the high stakes rounds,the younger ones didn’t—their performance didn’t change in line with whether the stakes were low or high.And the older the volunteers were,the more improved their performance was.When the team looked at the brain activity of the volunteers,they found that their ability to improve their performance was linked to how developed their brains were.A region in the brain,which continues to develop until we are at least25years old,seemed to be particularly important.The findings explain why some teenagers are so unconcerned when it comes to hazardous behaviors,such as driving too fast,for instance,especially when one of their friends is nearby.Insel thinks schools should reconsider the way they test performance in teenagers.“This study suggests it’s not a good idea to evaluate school performance in a single final exam”,she says.A better idea would be to use a variety of smaller tests,conducted throughout the year.It’s not all bad news for teens,though.Teenagers put the same amount of effort into tasks that aren’t “important”and start to prefer hobbies to school.It could be a good thing,allowing teenagers to learn complex social skills,for example.22.Why did the researchers set different bets in the game?A.To teach how to make money.B.To better monitor participants’brains.C.To show the varied risk levels of the game.D.To meet the needs of different participants.23.What does the underlined word“hazardous”probably mean?A.Dangerous.B.Abusive.C.Specific.D.Addictive.24.What should be kept in mind while assessing students’performance?A.It should not be judged by only one exam.B.The items in exams should not be too difficult.C.Exam-focused education should not be adopted.D.Examination is not a good means of evaluating students.25.What is Insel’s attitude to teenagers’putting effort into“unimportant”tasks?A.Unclear.B.Favorable.C.Doubtful.D.Negative.III.阅读填空(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)What is volunteer travel?Volunteer travel involves taking a trip where all or part of the purpose of the trip is to participate in an arranged service opportunity helping others.Typically,the volunteer activity takes place in a foreign country,but some opportunities can involve national or regional projects.26.Charitable interests often go far beyond national boundaries.People in developed countries become interested in the struggles of people in less developed countries.27Volunteer travel is a way to combine a visit to a new location with meaningful work that has a direct impact on communities in other parts of the world.28Historically,church groups made up a large part of this market.Once a year a religious organization or church would organize a trip to another country.29For example,it would be to help build a school in an impoverished(贫困的)area,or dig wells so a village would have clean water,or engage in hundreds of other projects that would impact those less fortunate.As international travel became easier and the Internet made communication between countries much easier,the interest in volunteer travel increased.30Volunteering in other countries has become as accessible as browsing a website and signing up.Instead of traveling with a group that is organized at the volunteers home base,the volunteer may join a group that gathers at the worksite from all over the world.This sort of volunteer travel is sometimes referred to as voluntourism or vacanteerism.A.The primary purpose of the trip was very specific.B.This type of travel has been an option for many years.cational institutions also made volunteer travel an option.D.Sometimes,donating money is not enough to satisfy the need to help.E.The Internet has helped make community service in general more popular.F.These trips are usually arranged by church organizations,human interest groups or non-profits.G.A new trend is that for-profit tour operators arrange group travel around volunteer opportunities.

So he pulled up in front her Mercedes and got out.Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look safe; he looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt.He said, “I am here to help you, ma’am. Why don’t you wait in the carwhere it’s warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.”Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was just passing through. She couldn’t thank him enough for coming to her aid.Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened, had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were many people who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, “And think of me.”He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home, disappearing into the twilight.（1）This story most probably took place____.A . in a garageB . on a highwayC . in a busy streetD . near a gas station（2）When the man approached the old lady, the first thing he did was to____.A . ask what was wrong with her carB . get the old lady out of her carC . change her tire as soon as possibleD . make her know he wanted to help her （3）The underlined part in Paragraph 6 suggests that____.A . the old lady had got ready to pay the manB . the old lady was grateful to the manC . the man had a lot of difficulty changing the tireD . the man didn’t stop changing the tire（4）Which of the following words can best describe the man?A .

When you do learning bursts right open” says EvelynVuko a longtime teacher who writes an education column called “Teacher Says” forthe Washington Post ne wspaper.In fact, kids, who get along with their teachers not onlylearn more but they’re more comfortable asking questions and getting extrahelp. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best ontests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher he or she can besomeone to turn to with problems such as problems with learning or school lifesuch as bullying.As a kid in a primary or middle school you’re at a wonderfulstage in your life. You’re like a sponge able to absorb lots o f new andexciting information. On top of that you’re able to think about all thisinformation in new ways. Your teacher knows that in most cases is very excitedto be the person who’s giving you all that material and helping you make it.Remember teachers are people too and they feel great if you’re open to whatthey’re teaching you. That’s why they wanted to be teachers in the firstplace-to teach!Some kids may be able to learn in any situation whether theylike the teacher or not. But most kids are sensitive to the way they get alongwith the teacher and if things aren’t going well they won’t learn as well andwon’t enjoy being in class.（1）In the passage the author mainly talks about _______.A . how to get along well with othersB . the importance of a good relation with teachersC . how much the students are expected of to get along with teachersD . how to make the time in the classroom more pleasant（2）”Learning bursts right open” in the third paragraph really means _______.A . learning becomes easier for you at onceB . you find an opening to learningC . there’ll be more problems with learningD . there’ll be no problems at all with learning（3）According to the passage which of the following statements is TRUE?A .

Though few there are still some stude nts who can learn even if they don’t like the teacher.D .

She wanted him to stay still next to her, but he wanted to run and play at the curb, close to rushing buses and taxis. One could sense the woman’s frustration, that she was pulled in too many directions: She was angry at the person on thetelephone and shouting at the younger that she would “snap his leg” if he moved again. As I waited for the traffic light to change, the child began to complain and struggle to free himself from the woman’s grip. She dropped the phone, seized the neck of his tiny T-shirt and gave him a back-hand blow across the face that I know made his little head spin.The light changed, and passersby continued on their way. But I stood there, fixed to the pavement. I knew this extremely upset woman would follow through on her threat of violence to the child. Before, I had wanted to approach her and offer to watch the youngster while she dealt with the distressing situation on the phone. Now I wanted to comfort the little boy. I also wanted to speak to the sister to calm her and to caution her, as I wish someone had cautioned me when I was passing my pain on to my daughter and causing her emotional suffering. But I was chicken. I thought, she may think I’m out of line, or I may be her next target.O ften I’ve thought about that child and the many others abused by adults. I wonder how they will internalize their pain, if it will crush their spirits. Will this little boy grow up to be an abusive man? Will he be gloomy and withdrawn? Will he find it hard to communicate with women, with other men? Or will he survive and be sensitive, caring and determined not to continue the cycle?There is too much cruelty in the world, too much cruelty between people.I tremble at the increasing verbal bitterness and violence among Black girls, and among young mothers trying to discipline their children. This behaviorisn’t class- or age- related: I hear sharp words from Black women from all walks of life who are overworked and stressed out and have grown impatient. At times I, too, become short with others, or, like the sister on the phone, strike out at those closest to me.Often we’re tired because we’ve made the wrong choices. Young girls who still need mothering are loaded with children. We, sisters easily get hurt and annoyed when we don’t compromisewith our own sense of self. Our personal fulfillment requires knowing what is best for us, setting oar boundaries and keeping them undamaged. We will always be asked to do more than we are comfortable doing. When we know our boundaries, we can decline comfortably. People — and we ourselves —will act in ways we don’t like. But they, like us, are still worthy of love.Whatever irritates us about a person should be examined. Is the person reflecting behavior in us that needs to be changed? Often, when I find people irritating, I find they mirror something about me that I need to correct.What we people of African root must do to thrive begins with love, sensitivity and our ability to work together. We Black women have these spiritual resources in abundance. Now we must draw on them to create a peaceful place — for ourselves, our children, our men.（1）The scene the author described in the passage probably happened .A . in a phone boothB . on the streetC . near a taxi standD . at a bus stop（2）We can learn from the passage the mother of the little kid must be .A . confused and quick-mindedB . cruel and talkativeC . disappointed andhot-temperedD . considerate and sensitive（3）In paragraph 2, by saying “She may think I am out of line”, the author meant the woman might say .A . “Walk away. It’s none of your business.”B . “You can watch and comfort my kid.”C . “You’re not standing in the queue.”D . “You are walking in the wrong direction.”（4）The wrong choices the author mentions in Paragraph 5 include .a. We sisters refuse to marry young.b. We aren’t satisfied with ourselves.c. We have our boundaries damaged. d. We de cline others’ requests for help.A . a, bB . c, dC . a, dD . b, c（5）According to the author, when we find a person irritating, we should .A . return to tenderness and toleranceB . avoid the hard words and sharp tonesC . reflect on our behavior that needs correctingD . examine if anything is wrong with him（6）The tone of the last paragraph is .A . criticalB . optimisticC . pessimisticD . objective四、任务型阅读20. 请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章表格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
