She explained to him the operation of a camera for a long time. Several times the head tried to say something, but he couldn't.

People watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. Popeye helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! Spinach became a necessary part of many people‟s diets. Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this is not true. Spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside vegetables. This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did. The group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it.Today, we know that the little iron there is in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is. However, spinach does have something else which the body needs—folic acid.It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong. Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along.51.A good title for this reading passage is______.A. Popeye the SailorB. The Truth About SpinachC.A Mistake with NumbersD. Folic Acid Makes You Strong52.Why did many people eat spinach after they saw Popeye the Sailor?A. They thought spinach made them strong.B. They thought Popeye was funny.C. Spinach had a lot of iron.D. People liked folic acid.53.A research group told people that spinach______.A. made Popeye strongB. was a green vegetableC.had less iron than other green vegetablesD.had more iron than other green vegetables54.The reading passage says that perhaps Popeye got his strength from______.A. ironB. folic acidC. spinachD. exercise55.Folic acid is ______.A. something in foodB. a vegetableC. dangerousD. a certain kind of spinachCBody and FoodYour body, which has close relations with the food you eat, is the most important thing you own, so it needs proper treatment and proper nourishment (营养).The old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away ”is not as silly as some people think.The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamin C.Many people take extra vitamins in pill form, believing that these will make them healthy.But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn‟t need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?In the modern western world, many people are too busy to bother about eating properly.They throw anything into their stomachs, eating hurriedly and carelessly. The list of illnesses caused or made worse by bad eating habits is frightening,56.“Your body has close relations with the food you eat.”It really means that ______.A.all kinds of food you eat can be made into your bodyB.your body is made up of the food you eatC.what you eat has great effect on your healthD.the more you eat, the fitter you will feel57.The old saying referred to in the passage tells us that ______.A.eating apples regularly does lots of good to our healthB.the apple is the best among all kinds of fruitsC.apples can take the place of doctorsD. an apple is a sure cure for illness58.In the second paragraph, the writer tries to let us know ______.A.our bo dies need food or we can‟ t liveB.often eating apples is a good habitC.taking extra vitamin pills is completely uselessD.a good diet is of great importance for our health59.In the modern western countries ______.A.people don …t want to pay more attention to their eatingB.lots of people‟ s illnesses are caused or made worse by bad eating habitsC.people throw everything into their stomachs without chewingD.people are only too busy to cook meals for themselves60.From the passage we can draw a conclusion that if we want to keep healthy,we should ____.A. only eat an apple a dayB. eat properlyC. take as many vitamin pills as possibleD.throw something into our stomachs slowly and carefullyDAt midnight on New Year‟s Eve, people in Rome, Ita ly, throw out all the things they no longer want. The streets are filled with old chairs, beds, clothes and dishes. In Madrid, Spain, the new year comes in more quietly. People flock to the main square. Each holds a bag of grapes. As the clock strikes twelve, the people eat the grapes— one for each stroke.In Tokyo people eat noodles on New Year‟s Eve. This food is said to bring long life. Early the next morning, some Japanese families climb Mount Fuji. There they watch the first sunrise of the new year.61. This story is about New Year‟s Eve in ____.A. Italy and SpainB. China and JapanC. JapanD. Italy ,Spain and Japan62. In Rome, Italy, the streets are filled with old things on New Year‟s Eve because __ .A.people throw out all the things they no longer wantB.the city has never been cleanC.people want to change back what they wantD.they want to see the sun come up63. In Tokyo, people eat noodles on New Year‟s Eve _____.A.because they like eating noodles very muchB.so that the daytime could be longerC.in order that they could live longerD.though they don‟t eat themEA lot of people think Scotland is a part of England , but, as any Scotsman will tell you , it certainly is not. In fact, until the eighteenth century Scotland was an independent country, with a parliament of its own. The English had tried many times over many centuries to bring Scotland under their rule. They succeeded at last in 1707, and some Scots have never forgiven them.Scotland is now governed from London, but in some ways it is still a separate nation. It has its own capital city(Edinburgh),its own law, and its own stamps, it even has a language of its own, spoken now by only a few people in the islands.In some ways Southern Scotland is like England, with his good farmland and low green hills. Central and Northern (the Highlands) have high mountains and deep valleys, fast rivers and cold lakes. These days, of course, there are good roads and railways all through Scotland. Aberdeen, the northeast city where the oil from the North Sea comes to land, is especially easy to reach. But it can still be quite different to travel in the winter when the hills are covered with snow. It always takes a long time to visit the beautiful but far-off islands on the west coast. One reason why Scotland has stayed so different from England is the wildness of the land. It has always been difficultto get around there.63. From the history of the Great Britain we can know Scotland________.A.had been an independent country by the 19th centuryB.had been a dependent country by the 18th centuryC.was a separate country before the 18th centuryD.was a dependent country before 18th century64. The first paragraph tell us _______.A.the Scots used to fight against the rules from England many timesB.the Scots defeated the English at all the battlesC.the Scots never defeated the English at all the battlesD.it was quite easy for the English to occupy Scotland65. Scotland has a language of its own,________.A.which is spoken by all the ScotsB.which not many people speak nowC.which is almost the same as English languageD.which the English prevent from being spoken66. From the third paragraph we can infer ______.A.there are no good roads in Scotland because of high mountainsB.there are no railways in Scotland because of deep valleysC.England has not any rivers and lakes in the center and the northD.England has good farmland and low green hills英语试题第一节：单项选择（共25小题，1分/题，共25分）1—5 DBCAB 6—10 DBBDA 11—15 BCCBD 16—20 BCDDC 21—25 CBDAD第二节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）26、D 27、C 28、A 29、D 30、B31、B 32、C 33、D 34、A 35、B36、D 37、C 38、B 39、A 40、B41、C 42、C 43、A 44、A 45、B第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）46-50 DADCC51--55 BADBA 56--60 CADBB61---63 DAC。
高二上学期第二次英语月考试卷试题试卷 (2)
高二上学期第二次英语月考试卷试题试卷一、阅读理解As winter sets in, it’s the perfect time to get out of town and escape the seasonal mood disorder. Here are vacation ideas to adopt now.Costa RicaCosta Rica, located in the Valle del General, is an off-the-radar agriculture town that’s not overrun with tourists. The area is known for its coffee, pineapples and sugar cane plantations, as well as its rich forests. What’s more, you can enjoy horseback riding, spend afternoons at the spa or tour a nearby wildlife shelter to look out for colorful birds, sloths and other animals.Los Cabos, MexicoIf you love wine, travel to Los Cabos, a beautiful vacation destination at the southern edge of the Baja Peninsula. During your getaway(短假), you can enjoy special wine tastings and dinner cooked by Los Cabos’s Michelin-starred chef. There are wildlife-viewing opportunities, too. From December through May, you can spot whales, manta rays and more wildlife.Petit St Vincent, the GrenadinesThis private Caribbean island was free of the anger ofhurricanes Irma and Maria. What’s more, the whole island is only 115 acres and has 22 cottages. Each cottage is located in a quiet place, and you can expect to unplug and recharge phones with no wireless connections, televisions or telephones in the cottages. Even better, you can spend your days admiring fascinating marine life at the Jean-Michel Cousteau Diving Caribbean center.The Exumas, BahamasOn Fowl Cay’s 50-acre private island, you can enjoy a carefree escape. Days can be spent fishing, boating and diving before wandering along white sands. The resort(度假村) features large one-, two- and three-bedroom houses. Best of all, if you’re planning a group getaway or multigenerational trip, you rent the entire island for a one-of-a-kind island escape.1.Why does the author recommend these placed to readersA.To experience out-of-town sights.B.To beat winter blues.C.To escape from extreme weather.D.To treat mental disease.2.What do we know about Petit St VincentA.It survived hurricanes Irma and Maria.B.It’s a huge and quiet island.C.People can admire fish off shore.D.People can charge phones using wireless connections.3.Where can Tom best go with his grandparents and parentsA.Los Cabos, Mexico.B.Petit St Vincent, the Grenadines.C.Costa Rica.D.The Exumas, Bahamas.I was on my way home from work, cutting through the Bryant Park. On that day, the sun seemed to set faster than usual, and suddenly I found myself walking in the dark. I was less than half a mile from my apartment, but the path would lead me over a bridge, across train tracks, and through an unlit underpass. Then I heard him – a stranger running alongside me, partly obscured(遮掩) by the bushes. My mouth went dry; my legs felt like water. But I didn’t pick up my pace – instead, I stopped, turned, and faced him. He came out of the bushes and said he’d been watching me “for a long time”.As he walked beside me, I guided us towards the edge of the park. When we reached the bridge, a train rumbled(轰鸣着缓慢行进) past, and he seized the moment, attacking me with a knife around my throat. The self-defense skills I had learned years before kicked in, and I pushed my finger into his eye,hard. And then came the shock: That didn’t frighten him away. My mind flashed back to a tip from an old guitar teacher: “Press the strings lik e you’re squeezing a flea(跳蚤).” I put all my strength into that finger, and finally he let go.I was shaking with fear, but I looked him straight in the eye and began to back away. I turned to run the hell out of there, but then I remembered another self-defense lesson: Never run, because then you’re a target. So I walked away alone –through the dark tunnel as I dialed 911 with trembling fingers. If you ever find yourself in this situation, use these self-defense skills that you already know. They can really make all the difference to you.1.Which of the following word best describes the author’s way homeA.Well-traveled.B.Risky.C.Boring.D.Well-protected.2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 suggestA.The author was desperate to go home.B.The author was exhausted and thirsty.C.The author was in a state of fear.D.The author’s legs were wet.3.Which statement may the author agree withA.The man is a casual acquaintance of her.B.She was guarded home by the police finally.C.She might feel grateful for her self-defense skills.D.The man injured his eye himself when making an attack.4.What is the best title for the passageA.How I survived an attackB.Whether fortune smiles on meC.What one should do when in dangerD.Why self-defense skills are importantEverywhere we look, we are surrounded by technology. We heavily rely on technology for our day-to-day lives. There are the social media apps, such as Facebook, Twitter, where we are able to see into the lives of everyone around us. There are other more useful apps like Google Maps where you can use a GPS to get from one place to another. It is no wonder that we are constantly looking down at our phones and other devices. And, that is a problem.Pretty soon, I fear that people will no longer be able to communicate face to face. I personally love being able to sit down and have a conversation with someone sans cell phones and distractions. It shows that you care about who you are talking to and want to involve and listen to them. The cell phonecan wait until later.What I really dislike is that younger and younger children are using technology. Instead of playing outside with friends, they are playing on iPads, iPods, or video games. Instead of having little games or books, children now have electronic devices to use to distract them even if waiting at doctors’ appointments etc. They want cell phones at young ages. They have texting. I overheard sixth graders one day talking about texting, and I was a little sad. At that age, I had to call my friends on the phone in order to talk to them.We are a society based on technology. And, that isn’t a completely bad thing, given its use in areas such as medicine. But we shouldn’t be addicted to so many of these devices that we forget to look around and see what is happening in the world around us.1.What can be concluded from the first paragraphA.Some tech products leave us unable to focus.B.Social media apps make people more visible.C.Many people usually misuse social media apps.D.Technology provides us with a convenient life.2.Which can best replace the underlined word “sans”A.is need ofB.withoutC.is spite ofD.with3.What’s the author’s attitude towards using technology in medicineA.Indifferent.B.Opposed.C.Concerned.D.Supportive.4.What does the author really want to show in the passageA.We should take a step back from constantly using technology.B.The electronic devices are closely connected with our life.C.Society should no longer be based on technology.D.We should say goodbye to electronic devices.According to a new study from Cornell University, about one-fifth of the global population, of 2 billion people worldwide, will be forced to resettle or go deeper inland by 2100 due to the continuous rise in sea level.The study, published in the journal Land Use Policy, showed that the growing global population could make the matter worse. The researchers expected that there are about 1.4 billon “climate change refugees(难民)” in the world by 20xx and by 2100 the number of the displaced people due to the rising sea level could reach up to two billion.“We’re going to have more people on less land and sooner than we think,” said lead author Charles Geisler, professor at Cornell. “The future rise in global average sea level probably w on’t be gradual. Yet few policy makers are observing the significant barriers that coastal climate refugees, like other refugees, will run into when they move to higher ground.” For the study, the researchers reviewed(回顾) potential problems that climate change refugees may face if they go deeper inland. The researchers identified these land difficulties with relocation using three organizing groups. Including depletion(损耗) zones, win-lose zones and no-trespass(不得擅自进入) zones. By doing so, the researchers were able to provide primary estimates of their toll(损失) on inland resettlement space. The researchers found that some inland regions were unlikely to support new waves of climate change refugees due to the remains of war, road developments and rare natural resources.Apart from the rising sea level, increasing storm weather and the booming global population are also having a huge influence on the number of climate change refugees. Storm can push seawater further inland. The increasing global population requires more land even as the ocean swallows up rich costalzones and river deltas(三角洲). These force people to search for new places to move to higher ground.1.What would happen if the sea level were to riseA.2 billion people would be “refugees” by 20xx.B.50% of the population would lose their homes.C.Inland regions would become more crowded.D.Coastal regions would be polluted seriously.2.What can be inferred from Charles Geisler’s wordsA.The sea level will go up in a little-by-little way.B.Moving to higher land isn’t the key solution.nd and population vary according to climate change.D.Policy makers should think more for climate change refugees.3.Why do climate change refugees fail to move to some inland regionsA.Because they can’t live a common life there.B.Because they can’t adapt to the climate there.C.Because they may consume more than expected.D.Because they will destroy the natural resources.4.What does the author stress in the last paragraphA.Global warming is a double-edged sword.B.In the future climate will become worse.C.The earth will see more climate change refugees.D.Sea will bring humans more disadvantages.二、七选五No one ever said final week is easy. Late-night cramming(填鸭式的用功) accompanied by cup after cup of coffee can take its toll〔产生恶果，产生损害〕 on your body, not to mention all of the test stress. But while you try to review as many books as possible to prepare for your tests, don’t forget your health.1. Here are some tips on dieting.2.Grabbing an Orion cake from the vending machine〔自动贩卖机〕is attractive, but it’s important to stick to fresher, more nutritious food. A banana or an orange with some trail mix(干果什锦) or yogurt will fill you up better than junk food.3. Eat a wholesome breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the same time you always do.Stay hydrated〔含水的〕Drink plenty of water, and then drink some more.4.. Sugary soft drinks will do no good. Spice up your water with fruits like lemon, or swap it for unsweetened flavorful tea, which rehydrates just as well as water.Proper caffeine intake(摄入) from coffee and energydrinksEveryone could use a quick energy booser, but too much could leave you feeling anxious, unable to sleep or focus. 5..A. The last place you need to experience caffeine withdrawal is in the middle of your examsB. After all, if y ou’re sick and uncomfortable during your tests, every effort you’ve made might be in vainC. Eat healthily and regularlyD. Cook meals by yourselfE. Don’t change your food schedule too muchF. It will help your mind stay clear and keep your energy levels highG. However, once you are sick and uncomfortable, you won’t get a high grade in exams三、完形填空Love is a hot topic, but what is love Here is a story. It took me a long time before I was able to fully understand my grandparents’ love. They wrote the word “Shmily” in a surprising place for the other to find.______one of them discovered it , it was his/her turn to _____it once more---in shoes, under pillows, even in toilet paper…Their way of life, rather than only a game, _____their love, which not everyoneis _____enough to experience.

AYou're rushing to work and a man ahead of you collapses on the sidewalk. Do you stop to help? In a study of by-standers, it was found that some people avert their gaze and keep on walking rather than stop and get involved.“There is a tendency to decide that no action is needed.〞 says a psychologist. “The first thoughts that pop into your mind often keep you from offering help. In order to take action, you have to work against them. 〞 Here are some common thoughts that might prevent you from helping.◆Why should I be the one? I'm probably not the most competent (有才能的) personin this crowd. You might think someone older or with more medical knowledge should offer assistance.◆What if he doesn't really need my help? The fear of embarrassment is powerful;no one wants to risk looking foolish in front of others.◆No one else looks concerned—this must not be a problem. We can follow thepeople around us, but most people tend to hold back their emotions in public.“If you spot trouble and find yourself explaining inaction, force yourself to stop and assess the situation instead of walking on,〞 says the psychologist. “Then retry to involve other people; you don't have to take on the entire responsibility of being helpful. Sometimes it's just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying, ‘It looks like we should do something.’ Or asking someone if an ambulance has been called and, if not, to call for one. Once you take action, most people will follow you.〞1. According to a study of by-standers, what will some people do when a man ahead falls down on the sidewalk?A. They will call for help and then walk away.B. They will stop and offer help.C. They will turn away their eyes and go on walking.D. They will laugh at him.2. Which is NOT the common thought that stops you from helping others?A. I'm not the very person capable of settling the problem.B. It looks like we should do something.C. It must not be a problem as no one else is concerned.D. He doesn't really need my help.3. We learn from the last paragraph that if we spot trouble, _____.A. we should call the ambulance as soon as we canB. we should take on the whole responsibility and do something aloneC. we should stop and assess the situation and try to make other people followD. we should turn to other people and ask them to take on the responsibility4. In order to offer others your timely help, you need to _____.A. ask others for help and call the policeB. get along well with the passers-by who spot the troubleC. go directly to the police stationD. work against the first thoughts that prevent you offering help5. The main purpose of the text is to tell readers _____.A. to give others a handB. to be more competentC. not to risk looking foolishD. to stop and assess the situationBThe Poetry Foundation, recently named American poet Jack Prelutsky as the nation's first children's poet laureate (桂冠诗人). The group created the award as a way to increase children's love of poetry.As children's poet laureate, Jack Prelutsky will give two public readings in the next two years. He will also advise the Poetry Foundation about children's literature and take part in projects concerning children and poetry.Jack Prelutsky has been writing poetry for children for over forty years. He has written more than thirty five books of poems. His first book was called A Gopher in the Garden. It was published in 1967. His latest is called Behold the Bold Umbrellaphant and Other Poems.Jack Prelutsky is well known for creating new words by combining two words to create a new kind of creature. For example, he combined “r adish〞with “shark〞to get “radishark〞. “Lion〞and “broccoli〞became “broccolion〞. He also created “umbrellaphant〞， a mixture of the words “umbrella〞and “elephant〞．Jack Prelutsky says that children like his poems because he writes about things they care about. Poetry researchers say that Jack Prelutsky's poems recognize children's feelings. An example of this is the poem My Sister Is a Werewolf whichis about how it feels to be different.Jack Prelutsky also writes poems about American holidays. His poem It's Halloween is a very famous one about the holiday celebrated at the end of October.6. Which of the following can be the BEST title of the passage?A. Poems with New Words Grow PopularB.

His poems are also about American holidays.C. He has been writing poetry for children for over forty years.D. He is famous for creating new words.CI am sure we’ve all come across inspiring quotes〔引言〕that made us nod in agreement or made us think, “Wow, that’s good quotes〞. But we end up going back to procrastinating〔拖延〕on whatever it was we were procrastinating on. So is it worthwhile to read these inspirational quotes? Well, that depends.Quotes, books, articles, audio programs… all of these things are just tools and they’re only effective when you use them. I don’t know about you but most quotes I read don’t do anything for me. However, every now and then, I will come across one that will positively affect me in some way such as reminding me to be grateful, getting me to work out extra hard at the gym without being pressed by my wife, or never give up when things get tough.From my experience, reading quote s is more effective when you’re actually trying to motivate yourself rather than just reading them for the sake of readingthem. The second you feel the urge to take action, you’d better immediately get up off your chair and take action.These quotes aren’t for everyone. If you have read tons of them and have never been motivated or had a positive change in the way you look at life or how you treat others, or these quotes don’t help you to insist on doing something when you feel like giving up on it, then i t’s probably not worth while to read more of them. If you have done something a bunch of times and it’s not giving you the results you want, don’t keep doing it. Try something else.Now if you’ve found some value in reading these quotes in the past, continu e to make them more effective by letting them guide your life.11. What attitude does the author have towards most quotes he has read?A. Negative.B. Grateful.C. Doubtful.D. Interested12. What does the author’s wife expect him to do?A. To be grateful for life.B. To exercise at the gymC. To do extra work at homeD. To read more inspiring quotes13. For whom will the quotes be effective according to the author?A. Those who understand them thoroughly.B. Those who lack practical tools in life.C. Those who have no one to turn to for help.D. Those who take immediate action after reading them.14. What is implied in Paragraph 4?A. Some quotes may have a bad influence on people.B. You shouldn’t waste time on the things you don’t like.C. Many ways can motivate you besides reading inspiring quotes.D. You’d better keep away from a quote if it doesn’t benefit you.15. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To persuade people not to waste time on quotes.B. to explain how to make inspiring quotes effective.C. to encourage people to read more inspiring quotes.D. to give people advice on how to choose useful quotes.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。

AIn her outstanding book, “Choose the Happiness Habit”, Pam Golden wrote, “Take the story of two twin brothers for example. One grew up and became an alcoholic, while the other became a successful businessman. When asked why he became an alcoholic, the alcoholic replied, “Because my father was a drunk.” However, the successful businessman’s answer was also “Because my father was a drunk.” when asked why he succeeded. The s ame background. The same upbringing. However, the results were quite different. Why? The reason is that they had different choices. The brothers chose different thoughts which formed the situations they found themselves in at last, so they had different experiences.There was a time in my life when I thought difficulty was due to “bad luck”. Have you ever heard the saying “When it rains, it pours”? That was my answer when others asked me how things were going on when I was in trouble. So what do you th ink I got? “RAIN”. More and more “RAIN”. I couldn’t understand why bad luck was always with me.Pam Golden says, “You’re either living in the problem or you’re living in the solution.” Now, when I’m faced with what I used to think was a negative situati on, I use a different way to think about it. I force myself to replace those negative thoughts that make me lose heart in my mind with positive thoughts which encourage me to fight against the difficulty bravely. Sometimes I write down some ideas that may be a solution, which I combine with the lessons I have learned from the bad situations and the difficulties that troubled me in the past, and often, I find a solution to the problem soon. It seems that I should thank the difficulty I met with. The RAIN that poured in my world has become great experiences that provide me with valuable experience, from which I can benefit.Now, it doesn’t “rain” as much in my life as it used to. In fact, most days are beautiful, cloudless and sunny! Sometimes I do get a rain, but I think it makes me stronger just like the rain helps plants grow up.21．The example of the twin brothers shows that ________.A. making good choices is the most importantB. education decides a person’s futureC. upbringing makes a big differenceD. it is luck that leads to success 22．What does “RAIN” mentioned in the second paragraph refer to?A. Water.B. Good luck.C. Success.D. Difficulty. 23．What is talked about in the third paragraph?A. How the author collects useful experience.B. How the author deals with difficulty now.C. How the author gets help from others.D. How the author lives in the problem. 24．Which of the following agrees with the author’s attitude now in the text?A. All things are difficult before they are easy.B. Meeting with difficulty is not a bad thing.C. Misfortunes tell us what fortune is.D. Things at the worst will mend.BWhen John was growing up, other kids felt sorry for him. His parents always had him weeding the garden, carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers. But when John reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood playmates. He had more job satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier. Far happier.These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who ha d not. “Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society,” said George Vaillant, the psy chologist who made the discovery. “And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good abo ut them.”Vaillant’s study followed these males in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men’s mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores. Points were awarded for part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems.The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp. Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed. The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out. Working----at any age----is important. Childhood activities help a child developresponsibility, independence, confidence and competence---the underpinnings (基础) of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isn’t everything. As Tolstoy once said, “One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love on e’s work.”25．What do we know about John?A. He enjoyed his career and marriage.B. He had few childhood playmates.C. He received little love from his family.D. He was envied by others in his childhood.26．Vaillant’s words in Paragraph 2 serve as _____.A. a description of personal values and social valuesB. an analysis of how work was related to competenceC. an example for parents’ expectations of their childrenD. an explanation why some boys grew into happy men27．Vaillant’s team obtained their findi ngs by _____.A. recording the boys’ effort in schoolB. evaluating the men’s mental healthC. comparing different sets of scoresD. measuring the men’s problem solving ability28．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. competent adults know more about love than work.B. Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.C. Love brings more joy to people than work does.D. Independence is the key to one’s success.COne day a mime is visiting the zoo and tries to earn some money as a street performer. As soon as he starts to draw a crowd, a zookeeper pulls him into his office. The zookeeper explains that the zoo’s most popular attraction, a gorilla, has died suddenly and the keeper fears that attendance at the zoo will fall off. He offers the mime a job to dress up as the gorilla. The mime accepts.The next morning the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage before the crowd comes. He soon discovers he can sleep, play and make fun of people and he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mime — the job he likes but loses.However, with days going by, he begins to notice that the people are paying more attention to the lion in the cage next to his. Not wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he climbs to the top of his cage, crawls across a partition(隔墙), and dangles from the top to the lion’s cage. The lion gets angry at this. The scene is a fuel to the crowd. At the end of the day he is given a raise for being such a good attraction —well, this continues for some time. The crowds grow larger, and the mime’s pay keeps going up.Then one day when he is dangling over the lion he slides and falls. The mime is terrified. He starts screaming “Help me!”, but the lion is quick. The mime soon finds himself flat on his ba ck looking up at the angry lion and the lion says, “Shut up you fool! Do you want to get us both fired?”29．The mime accepts the zookeeper’s offer because __________.A. he has been out of workB. he doesn’t like being a mimeC. he likes performing at the zooD. he is offered a higher pay there30．How does the mime find the job dressing up as the gorilla?A. Hard and tiring.B. Dangerous but exciting.C. Easy and funny.D. Boring but well-paid.31．The mime’s first contact w ith the lion is to __________.A. find pleasure for himselfB. get the lion’s attentionC. get his pay raisedD. win back his audience32．The underlined words “a fuel” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by __________.A. frighteningB. disappointingC. excitingD. FamiliarDMy son ,Izzy, was a nine-year-old boy and had been begging me to please let him find his way home by subway, by himself. After all, we live in New York City, and getting around by public transportation is a basic part of life. It is also the first step toward feeling grown-up. So on that sunny Sunday，I gave him a subway map, a transportation card,$20 for emergencies, and a couple of coins so that he could call me if necessary. I didn’t give him a cell phone because nine-year-olds lose things. A few days later, I wrote about his adventure，or non-adventure for a newspaper. Little did I realize the idea that a kid could tour the city on his own, and that a mom would let him, was big news.It turned out that many TV shows called me and asked for an interview. Bloggers weregoing crazy, so I started a blog, too, and letters came pouring in. Finally I found out why this was such a big story: we have become fearful for our children. Fear is hardly a new thing for parents, of course. But the fear of letting our children out of sight for even a second-that’s new. How did this happen? How did it become too scary to let kids b e kids? I asked the question when the reporter Trevor Butterworth interviewed me.“News reports,” he answered. “News reports scare the pants off you. What is scarier than a kidnapped kid no matter how far away？Because there are so many such stories, it starts to feel as if kidnappings are happening all the time. That’s why the kid-on-the-subway stor y surprises the whole world.”Izzy probably did a good job. He simply proved that kids could leave home alone and return home safely! But he didn’t think it was a big deal. “It was fun,” he said. “But I missed some classes because of the interviews.” So metimes it really pays to be brave.33. Why did the author let her son take the subway alone?A. Because she always let her son do whatever he wanted.B. Because she believed that her son had memorized the subway map.C. Because she thought it would be big news around the whole world.D. Because she felt traveling by subway in New York was a basic life skill.34. The author gave her son all the following when he traveled alone EXCEPT_______.A. a map.B. a cell phone.C. a transportation cardD. some money.35. The author didn’t expect that after she wrote her son’s story for a newspaper, __________.A. a blog would be started in her nameB. her son would receive so many lettersC. many TV shows would want to interview herD. many TV statio ns would want to film her son’s story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。
