Choked with emotion,I whispered,“I am OK,Mom.I will never go into the woods without your company and permission.”Shooting me an approving look,she added,“Next time you want to come,keep me informed!”In the setting sun,we headed back and this time,I held my mom’s hand tightly.听力录音材料(Text1)M:Sorry,ma’am,but the computer is not accepting your card.W:How can that be?I paid last month’s bill.Can you try again?M:OK,here goes.Oh,it’s fine.W:That’s a relief.Your computer must be faulty.(Text2)M:I’ve been invited to have dinner with Paulo and Maria this evening but I don’t know what to wear.I’d also like to take a small present.Do you have any ideas?W:Just be informal,and I’m sure they’d appreciate some flowers and maybe something from Scotland.(Text3)W:How about spending the weekend with us?M:Let me see if my wife has anything planned and I’ll get back to you.W:Well,make it quick.What we wanna do involves making reservations.(Text4)M:What do you think of the new building downtown?W:It is visually unappealing!I can’t stand it!M:That pretty well sums up my view about it too.(Text5)W:The president likes the new location for the store.M:I wish he knew how hard we worked to find it.第一节到此结束。

UK-China Youth Exchange Program.C. Learn English Online.D. Our Work in Arts.BBetween flights,as I sat in the Denver airport,a young man approached me.He tilted (倾斜)his head toward the chair next to mine,then toward my suitcase blocking the chair.There were many open seats.Why this one?I thought.When he sat,I noticed the markings on his bag and his faded uniform.I asked.He nodded.I bowed my head slightly.Then he asked where I was headed."Home."Hands on his knees,he told me he was on vacation and was going home to surprise his mother.I asked how long it had been since he'd seen her (five years).I asked what he was looking forward to at home(a shower).He scanned the room cautiously as he talked.When he looked at me,his eyes kept no distance.He seemed to want something from me.I could not tell what it was.He said it was hard to stop scanning for danger.Yesterday,he'd been in the desert.Fellow soldiers had been blown into pieces around him.Today,he was in an airport trying to understand anger over flight delays and the rush for coffee.He didn't know how to be,here in this place.I thought maybe I understood.One evening after spending hours with a friend who just lost her son,I went to my daughter's performance.In the crowded lobby,mothers complained about their seats and bemoaned other small slights,but only compassion made sense to me.I feltdisoriented,distant.I told the soldier about this.He breathed deeply and showed a small smile.He'd seen the raw and unbearable.But he did not know how to tell us.This was what he needed from me,I realized.He did not want the seat beside mine.He wanted to sit with me.I did not know his name,how his surprise would turn out,how long his tour of duty would last.We sat together until our flights were called and then said goodbye,two strangers heading home.4.How did the author feel when the soldier approached him?______A. Angry.B. Confused.C. Respectful.D. Joyful.5.Why did the man keep scanning the room?______A. He attempted to find a coffee shop.B. He formed the habit of staying alert.C. He was distractedD.

Took pride in.7.What did the soldier really want?______A. My support for the soldiers.B. My knowledge of the cruelty of war.C. A chance to get away from the battlefield.D. A brief sense of securityCWal-Mart is not just the world's largest retailer(零售商).It's the world's largest company,which sells in three months what number-two retailer Home Depot sells in a year.Wal-Mart exercises its power for just one purpose:to bring the lowest possible prices to its customers.At Wal-Mart,that goal is never reached.The retailer has a clear policy for suppliers:On basic products that don't change,the price Wal-Mart will pay,and will charge shoppers,must drop year after year.But what almost no one outside the world of Wal-Mart and none of its 21,000 suppliers know is the high cost of those low prices.To survive in the face of its pricing demands,makers of everything from bikes to jeans have had to close US plants in favor of obtaining products from abroad.Indeed,the real story of Wal-Mart,the story that never gets told,is the story of the pressure the biggest retailer constantly applies to its suppliers in the name of bringing us "every day low prices".The giant retailer's low prices often come with a high cost.Wal-Mart's pressure can crush the companies it does business with and force them to send jobs overseas.Are we shopping our way straight to the unemployment line?Of course,US companies have been moving jobs offshore for decades;long before Wal-Mart was a retailing power.Butthere is no question that the chain is helping accelerate the loss of American jobs to low-wage countries such as Thailand.People ask,"How can it be bad for things to come into the US cheaply?" Sure,it's great to have bargains.But you can't buy anything if you're not employed.There is no question that Wal-Mart's drive to squeeze out cost has benefited consumers.By now,it is accepted wisdom that Wal-Mart makes the companies it does business with more efficient and focused.Wal-Mart itself is known for continuous improvement in its ability to handle,move,and track goods.It is legendary(传奇)for forcing its suppliers to redesign everything from their packaging to their computer systems.It is also legendary for quite straightforwardly telling them what it will pay for their goods.8.Wal-Mart's low price policy results in ______ .A. more high-paying jobsB. worse designed packagesC. bigger profit of its partnersD. more jobless American workers9.What does the underline word offshore in the passage mean?______A. In abroad.B. In the Ocean.C. On the beach.D. On an island not far from shore.10.What can we infer from the passage?______A. Still more quality goods will be provided.B. The food you get at Wal-Mart costs least.C. The value of Mal-Mart is over assessed.D. Wal-Mart is a very demanding company.11.What's the best title for the passage?______A. The Fortune Wal-Mart MakesB. The Wal-Mart you don't KnowC. The Biggest Retailer-Wal-MartD. The Money Saving Tip in Wal-MartDIf you know exactly what you want,the best way to get a job is to get specialized training.A recent report shows that companies like graduates in such fields as business and health care who can go to work immediately with very little on-the-job training.That's especially true of booming fields that are challenging for workers.At Cornell's School of Hotel Administration,for example,bachelor's degree graduates get an average of four or five job offers with salaries ranging from the high teens to the low 20s and plenty of chances for rapid rge companies especially like a background of formal education coupled with work experience.But in the long run,too much specialization does not pay off.Business,which has been flooded with MBAs,no longer considers the degree an automatic stamp of approval.The MBA may open doors and command a higher salary initially,but the impact of a degree washes out after five years.As further evidence of the erosion of corporate faith in specializeddegrees,Michigan State's Scheetz cites a pattern in corporate hiring practices.Although companies tend to take on specialists as new hires,they often seek out generalists for middle and upper-level management.This sounds like a formal statement that you approve of the liberal-arts(文科)graduate.Time and again labor-market analysts mention a need for talents that liberal-arts majors are assumed to have:writing and communication skills,organizational skills,open-mindedness and adaptability,and the ability to analyze and solve problems.David Birch,manager of the Boston Red Sox,says that he does not hire anybody with an MBA or an engineering degree."I hire only liberal-arts people because they have a less-than-canned way of doing things,"says Birch.For a liberal-arts degree,students focus on some basic courses that include literature history,mathematics,economics,science,human behavior and a computer course or two.With these useful and important courses,you can feel free to specialize,"A liberal-arts degree coupled with an MBA or some other technical training is a very good combination in the marketplace,"says Scheetz.12.The job market is in great need of people with ______ .A. special training in special fieldsB. a bachelor's degree in educationC. formal schooling and work experienceD. an MBA degree from top universities13.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 means ______ .A. an MBA degree does not help in future promotionB. MBA programs will not be as popular as they are nowC. people will not forget the degree the MBA graduates have gotD. most MBA programs fail to provide students with a foundation14.David Birch says that he only hires liberal-arts people because ______ .A. they will follow others' ways of solving problemsB. they can do better in bundling changing situationsC. they are well trained in a variety of specialized fieldsD. they have attended special programs in management15.The author supports the idea that ______ .A. on-the-job training is less costly in the long runB. formal schooling is less important than job trainingC. specialists are more expensive to hire than generalistsD. generalists will do better than specialists in management.二、阅读七选五:本大题共5小题,共10分。
四川省成都市树德中学2024-2025学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题
四川省成都市树德中学2024-2025学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题一、阅读理解Are you worried about moving up to Senior High school? It can be a new experience, but you shouldn’t worry. We’ve put together a guide on how to survive the first week.You’re not alone!Remember everybody else in your year is on the same boat. They may not realize it, but they’re just as nervous as you are. Moving to Senior High school is an opportunity, not a problem. Things are different and all you need to do is be polite and learn the new rules.Teachers are ready to help!If you’re unsure what to do or are worried about anything then you had better ask for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they’re experienced in helping new students. Some Senior High schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this, then you will be paired with an older student. They will look out for you and help you if you have any problems or questions.All changeThere are lots of differences between Junior High school and Senior High school. You’ll have a homework diary or a student planner. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days, so make sure you get organized. Make sure you have a copy of your school timetable written down so you know which rooms your classes are in and on which days you will have your different subjects.Other pointsIf you’ve got an elder brother or sister at the school then ask them for advice.Be yourself! It sounds simple, but people will know you much better if you just act naturally.Having early nights makes a difference and you’ll find it easier to get up in the morning! 1.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A.Other students have similar feelings to yours.B.Other students have to learn boating with you.C.Other students will help you solve your problems.D.Other students will teach you politeness and new rules.2.The new students turn to teachers first when having problems because_______.A.teachers won’t blame them as parents doB.teachers are good at helping solve problemsC.teachers are equal to every studentD.parents are too busy to help them3.What’s the purpose of the passage?A.To tell students the importance of learning.B.To warn students not to ignore friendship in Senior High school.C.To make a difference when moving up to Senior High school.D.To help new students to get used to the life in Senior High school.English is full of funny expressions that don’t always make sense. Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word, you may not understand the idiom because you don’t understand the culture behind it. Here are some English idioms based on animals.When children jump around and act silly, their parents may tell them to stop “monkeying around”.To “monkey around” means to do things that are not useful or serious, or to simply waste time.Many American families have and love pet dogs. But for some unknown reason, Americans use “dog” in a phrase that means to feel unwell. If you are “as sick as a dog”, you’re really, really sick.Sometimes you may also hear cats mentioned in conversations, “I told you to keep that secret, but you have just ‘let the cat out of the bag’!” You probably guessed it — that idiom means to reveal a secret or tell facts that were previously unknown.Dogs and cats don’t always get along, but they appear side by side in a commonly used idiom. When it rains heavily, people might say it’s “raining cats and dogs”.Heavy rain often ruins people’s plans for outdoor activities. But on a lovely day, you canhave a picnic. If a swarm (一群) of tiny bugs love your food and start to hover (盘旋) around you, it would be really annoying. That experience perfectly explains why people often tell someone who keeps bothering them to “stop bugging me”.Idioms are very common in both spoken and written English. If you want to have a better understanding of English, you have to learn idioms.4.According to Paragraph 1, which is right about idioms?A.Expressions which are based on animals.B.Expressions with rich cultural background.C.Expressions that always make sense.D.Expressions which are easy to understand.5.What can “monkeying around” be used to describe?A.Children jump around and waste time.B.Children do something useful and serious.C.Children play with monkeys with their parents.D.Children spend time playing with their family pets.6.What can be learned from the text?A.Dogs and cats always get along nicely.B.Bugs can be used to show your annoyance.C.Americans believe cats can give away secrets.D.Americans use the idiom “as sick as a dog” to describe a healthy man.7.How does the text mainly develop?A.By sharing experiences.B.By making comparisons.C.By giving examples.D.By listing figures.By the time she turned 18, Khadijah Williams had attended twelve schools. She had lived in shelters, in parks, and in motels, never in a permanent residence for more than a few months. She had been laughed at and looked down upon by students at a dozen schools who thought of her as “different”.Homeless since early childhood, Khadijah struggled all her life to hide her circumstances from teachers and fellow students. However, academic achievement proved to be a way for her to find confidence in herself again. For instance, at the age of 9, she placed in the 99th percentile on a state exam, and her teacher told her she was “gifted”. From that moment forward, Khadijah decided to do whatever it took to keep herself in that category. “I was so proud of being smart. I often heard my fellow students say, ‘You got the easy way out because you're homeless,’” she told The LA Times. “But I never saw it as an excuse about living a less successful life.”By the second year of high school, she realized that she could not succeed in getting the education she dreamed of without getting help to go beyond what her current school could offer. She talked to teachers and advisers who helped her apply for summer community college classes, scholarships, and enrichment programs. And in the 11th grade, when she enrolled at Jefferson High School, she decided to complete the rest of her school career there—a decision that meant taking a bus each morning at 4 a.m. and not getting home until 11 p.m.Here's the end of the story—when Khadijah poured the story of her life into her Harvard University college application, she was accepted.8.What makes Khadijah confident in herself?A.Her different personality.B.Her ability to live well alone.C.Her excellent performance in study.D.Her fellow students' encouragement. 9.What do many students think of Khadijah's being homeless?A.It's a really pitiful circumstance.B.It makes her more strong-minded.C.It offers her more ways to succeed.D.It's an excuse about working less hard. 10.What did Khadijah's teachers and advisers help her do?A.Pass a college entrance exam.B.Apply for more advanced education.C.Make a decision to complete high school.D.Become a top student in her current school.11.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?A.Twelve Schools Make a Successful StudentB.Being Different Means Having More ChancesC.Khadijah Williams: From Shelters to HarvardD.Khadijah Williams: Inspiration to Homeless PeopleFor those who can stomach it, working out before breakfast may be more beneficial for health than eating first, according to a study of meal timing and physical activity.Athletes and scientists have long known that meal timing affects performance. However, far less has been known about how meal timing and exercise might affect general health.To find out, British scientists conducted a study. They first found 10 overweight and inactive but otherwise healthy young men, whose lifestyles are, for better and worse, representative of those of most of us. They tested the men’s fitness and resting metabolic (新陈代谢的) rates and took samples (样品) of their blood and fat tissue.Then, on two separate morning visits to the scientists’ lab, each man walked for an hour at an average speed that, in theory, should allow his body to rely mainly on fat for fuel. Before one of these workouts, the men skipped breakfast, meaning that they exercised on a completely empty stomach after a long overnight fast (禁食). On the other occasion, they ate a rich morning meal about two hours before they started walking.Just before and an hour after each workout, the scientists took additional samples of the men’s blood and fat tissue.Then they compared the samples. There were considerable differences. Most obviously, the men displayed lower blood sugar levels at the start of their workouts when they had skipped breakfast than when they had eaten. As a result, they burned more fat during walks on an empty stomach than when they had eaten first. On the other hand, they burned slightly more calories (卡路里), on average, during the workout after breakfast than after fasting.But it was the effects deep within the fat cells that may have been the most significant, the researchers found. Multiple genes behaved differently, depending on whether someone had eaten or not before walking. Many of these genes produce proteins (蛋白质) that can improve blood sugar regulation and insulin (胰岛素) levels throughout the body and so are associated with improved metabolic health. These genes were much more active when the men had fasted before exercise than when they had breakfasted.The implication of these results is that to gain the greatest health benefits from exercise, it may be wise to skip eating first.12.The underlined expression “stomach it” in Paragraph 1 most probably means “______”.A.digest the meal easily B.manage without breakfastC.decide wisely what to eat D.eat whatever is offered13.Why were the 10 people chosen for the experiment?A.Their lifestyles were typical of ordinary people.B.Their lack of exercise led to overweight.C.They could walk at an average speed.D.They had slow metabolic rates.14.What happened to those who ate breakfast before exercise?A.They successfully lost weight.B.They consumed a bit more calories.C.They burned more fat on average.D.They displayed higher insulin levels. 15.What could be learned from the research?A.A workout after breakfast improves gene performances.B.Too much workout often slows metabolic rates.C.Lifestyle is not as important as morning exercise.D.Physical exercise before breakfast is better for health.After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.Together, these deep human urges (驱策力) count for much more that ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, “Why? Why? Why?”Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don’t have to be learned. We are born with them and need only recapture them.“The great man,” said Mencius (孟子), “is he who does not lose his child’s heart.” Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging custom. We just follow the crowd. And the crowd desires restful average. It encourages us to occupy our own little corner, to avoid foolish leaps into the dark, to be satisfied.Most of us meet new people, and new ideas, with hesitation. But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance. We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake.How should you start? Modestly, so as not to become discouraged. I think of one friend who couldn’t arrange flowers to satisfy herself. She was curious about how the experts did it. How she is one of the experts, writing books on flower arrangement.One way to begin is to answer your own excuses. You haven’t any special ability? Most people don’t; there are only a few geniuses. You haven’t any time? That’s good, because it’s always the people with no time who get things done. Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom’s Cabin while cooking. You’re too old? Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78.However you start, remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you’ll never be more alive than you are at this moment.16.In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________.A.propose a definitionB.make a comparisonC.reach a conclusionD.present an argument17.What does the example of Galileo tell us?A.Trial and error leads to the finding of truth.B.Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious.C.Creativity results from challenging authority.D.Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore.18.What can you do to recapture curiosity and discontent?A.Observe the unknown around you.B.Develop a questioning mind.C.Lead a life of adventure.D.Follow the fashion.19.What can we learn from Paragraphs 6 and 7?A.Gaining success helps you become an expert.B.The genius tends to get things done creatively.C.Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action.D.You should remain modest when approaching perfection.20.What could be the best title or the passage?A.Curious Minds Never Feel ContentedB.Reflections on Human NatureC.The Keys to AchievementD.Never Too Late to LearnSome individuals are born with a gift for public speaking. 21 Do you want to be a good public speaker? Here are some principles you must master.People want to listen to someone who is interesting, relaxed and comfortable. Too often when you stand up to give a speech, you focus on the “public”at the expense of the “speaking. ”22 Focus on the speaking. Talk directly to your audience, be yourself and make a connection.Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes. Yet, the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking. People’s attention wanders constantly. In fact,most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker’s message. So, don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one. 23Your goal is not to be a perfect public speaker. 24 And like everything else in life, that takes practice. Remember, even world champion athletes practice their skills on a consistent basis.25 It’s rare to hear someone say, “I wish that speaker had spoken longer. “On the other hand, you probably can’t count the times that you’ve thought, “I’m glad that talk is over. It seemed to go on forever! “So surprise your audience. Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated. It’s better to leave your listeners wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end.A.Do the opposite.B.You want to be an effective public speaker.C.You don’ t need to apologize for a minor slip.D.When it comes to public speaking, less is usually more.E.The objective of most speeches is to benefit the audienceF.Take the fear out of public speaking by focusing on your listenersG.However, the majority of people are effective speakers because they train to be.二、完形填空Luke is a cute dog, living together with me for five years. We get lots of 26 in our area during the summer season. Many forests are badly 27 by fires each year. That hot summer, not far from our shelter, a forest 28 fire. It was July, and there had been a heat wave going on for three days.Somehow, Luke rushed towards the forest. There was no longer any hope at that moment to wait for Luke to come back to the 29 . In fact, I was waiting for firefighters to tell me that he had 30 in the forest. Suddenly, a fireman burst into my office and 31 me that Luke had succeeded in saving four cats who had been 32 by the flames (火焰). I 33 accompanied (陪伴) the fireman to the forest to get him back. 34 we got to the scene of the event, we didn’t see Luke. Then we heard the 35 of a dog barking (吠) in the forest.

We often hear that a pet dog saved the owner's life or traveled thousands of miles to return home. Such stories often make pets more lovely.Some pets can also be trained to help people with some special work. For example, trained dogs can help the blind to walk and trained dogs and pigs can even help police to find where drugs are easily.But pets are sometimes trouble-makers. Some pets like dogs or snakes may hurt people without any warning. Some people may become ill after being hurt because of the virus carried by the pets.

"Kerrel, I don't want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when you are around him."AIDS wasn't something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together any more and my dad lived alone. For a while, he could take care of himself. But when I was 12, his condition worsened. My father's other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.We couldn't afford all the necessary medicine for him because Dad was unable to work. I had no money for school supplies and often couldn't even buy food for dinner. I would sit inclass feeling completely lost, the teacher's words muffled as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.I did not share my burden with anyone. I had seen people react to AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even adults could be cruel. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on the bedside even though he was too weak to feed himself.I had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret, I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless, I called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on the phone for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my life .I was 15 when my father died. He took his secret away with him, having never spoken about AIDS to anyone. Even me, he didn't want to call attention to AIDS.49. What does Kerrel tell us about her father?A. He had stayed in the hospital since he fell illB. He depended on the nurses in his final days.C. He worked hard to pay for his medication.D. He told no one about his disease.50. What can we learn from the underlined sentence?A. Kerrel couldn't understand her teacher.B. Kerrel had special difficulty in hearing.C. Kerrel was too troubled to focus on the lesson.D. Kerrel was too tired to hear her teacher's words.51. Why did Kerrel keep her father's disease a secret?A. She was afraid of being looked down upon.B. She thought it was shameful to have AIDS.C. She found no one willing to listen to her.D. She wanted to obey her mother.52. Why did Kerrel write the passage?A. To tell people about the sufferings of her father.B. To show how little people knew about AIDS.C. To draw people's attention to AIDS.D. To remember her father.DIt’s a safe bet that a robot made your car and made your computer. Pretty soon, they could be making your bed and breakfast too.Increasingly, engineers are saying that robots are going to move out of research departments and into your home. Companies including Sony and General Electric are working on designs for small robots. Products like the Roomba, a robot that can clean floors, are flying off the shelves.What’s behind this new robot revolution? It’s partly a matter of technology. Devices that can recognize and respond to a human voice have been developed. There are now a few different ways for robots to move around. They can walk, crawl or ride on wheels. Robots are being made smaller and smaller. They are also becoming more and more energy efficient.A bigger part of the story is on the demand side. From the day the television remote control was invented, people around the world have searched for new ways to be lazy. Take into consideration that more and more people can afford robots, and the time seems ripe to introduce robots to the average family.To be sure, robots that walk on two legs and talk like people are still a long way off. However, robots that do basic housework such as cleaning or gardening are sure to come out soon. One thing is certain---when these robots do come to our homes, it will change things forever.53. According to the passage, robots can do the following things EXCEPT________.A. cleaning floorsB. making carsC. talking like peopleD. making computers54.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Smaller robots are less energy efficient.B. Roomba has been out of dateC. People will become lazier than before.D. People’s demand contributes to new robots55. The underlined part in the 2nd paragraph probably means________.A. new robots will soon come into people’s homes.B. new robots can fly by themselves .C. robot products are cheaper and cheaperD. new robots have more functions than old ones56. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Robots will soon be on saleB. Robots are in great demandC. Robots are coming into our families.D. Robots help us a lotE“Life is speeding up. Everyone is becoming unwell.” This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unwell person who lived in Rome in AD 53 wrote it.We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives. But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives?Picture this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the telephone is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done.Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, not even any electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps that is because they live simpler lives.One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons, Benjamin, 10, and Thomas, 7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phone.The grandmother, Lyn, said, “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes.” The boys said they fought less. Probably, they said, because there was less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from beinga trendy, been-drinking granny, to one who cooked things.57. The passage is mainly about ____________.A. problems with technologyB. improvements in our lives caused by technologyC. changes happening to technologyD. the importance of technology58. The writer uses the quote(引语) at the beginning of the story to____________.A. tell us the truth about lifeB. tell us what life was like a long time agoC. point out what causes such a thing to happenD. point out that you experience some big problems and they may be the same59.The family chose to spend some time in a 1940s house because______________.A. they loved to live simple livesB. they wanted to know how people lived without modern inventionsC. they were troubled by modern inventionsD. living in a different time would be a lot of fun for them60. What does the word “available” in the suggestion offered by the writer mean?A. Busy onlineB. FreeC. Be able toD. Be found by others.短文改错(每小题1分,共10分)Dear Ms. Donforth,I'm writing to ask you come to our class for a visit. I've 76. ________ heard that you have been to Greece.

But usually people would accept tame(温顺的) and loyal(忠诚的) animals as pets rather than dangerous ones such as a lion,a tiger or a snake.People love pets and take good care of them. The owners usually regard pets as good friends and some even consider them as members of the family. Although they are not human beings(人类), their behavior sometimes is better than human beings, for they are always loyal to their owners. There are always many stories about brave and smart pets. We often hear that a pet dog saved the owner's life or traveled thousands of miles to return home. Such stories often make pets more lovely.Some pets can also be trained to help people with some special work. For example, trained dogs can help the blind to walk and trained dogs and pigs can even help police to find where drugs are easily.But pets are sometimes trouble-makers. Some pets like dogs or snakes may hurt people without any warning. Some people may become ill after being hurt because of the virus carried by the pets. If they are not taken good care of, they will become very dirty and easily get ill. So pets are helpful to us but keeping pets is not an easy job.51.

After college, it was difficult to find a job. But through all the difficult times, Collette Divitto, has had one thing that makes her happy: baking. Divitto, who has Down syndrome (唐氏综合征), decided to channel her passion into a career, opening her own cookie company.“So actually, I always loved baking, since I was 4 years old. From high school, I had been taking baking classes,” said Divitto, 31. “It was a hard time for me. I had no friends. I didn’t have a social life. I got bullied. I got picked on. And that’s why I had been taking baking classes.”After high school, Divitto went to Clemson University in South Carolina, but after graduating, it was difficult for her to find jobs. So, she turned to her mom, who helped her create her own job: CEO of Collettey’s Cookies.“There’re lots of amazing things happening,” Divitto said of the opportunities coming her way. She says her favorite part about running her business is hiring people with disabilities. Collettey’s Cookies helps people with disabilities prepare for their careers, by offering workshops and guidance.In 2020, just 17.9% of people with a disability were employed. But Divitto believes many want to work, federal law does not require employers to pay them minimum wage. That means companies can pay people with disabilities whatever they think they’re worth — something Divitto is working to change.She has appealed to society to help create more jobs for people with disabilities, which she hopes gets the attention of Congress. Collettey’s Cookies now has 15 employees, and about half of them are people with disabilities. And they have a strong leader to look up to. “No matter who you are, you can make a great difference in this world,” Divitto said. “Don’t let people bring you down... Do not focus on your disabilities. You only need to focus on your abilities.”4.What drove Divitto to start her business?A.Her being bullied.B.Her mother’s help.C.Her Down syndrome.D.Her failure to land a job.5.Which of the following best describes Divitto’s attitude towards the disabled?A.Merciful.B.Generous.C.Considerate.D.Tolerant.6.What does Divitto want to work to change?A.The salary the disabled get.B.The fedal law about the disabled.C.The working conditions of the disabled.D.The role the disabled plays in the Congress. 7.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.The disabled act as leaders in her company.B.The government shows no care for the disabled.C.Disabled people have potential to achieve success.D.Employees show respect for Divitto in her company.Throughout history, many species of animals have been threatened with extinction. When Europeans first arrived in North America, more than 60 million buffalo (水牛) lived on the continent. Yet hunting the buffalo was so popular during the 19th century that by 1900 the animal’s population had fallen to about 400 before the government stepped in to protect the species. In some countries today, the elephant faces a similar challenge, as illegal hunters kill the animals for the ivory in their tusks.Yet not all animals with commercial value face this threat (威胁).The cow, for example, is avaluable source of food, but no one worries that the cow will soon be extinct. Why does the commercial value of ivory threaten the elephant. while the commercial value of beef protects the cow?The reason is that elephants are a common resource, while cows are private goods. Elephants wander freely without any owners. The hunter has a strong motivation to kill as many elephants as he can find. Because illegal hunters are numerous, each has only a slight motivation to preserve the elephant population. By contrast, cattle live on farms that are privately owned. Each farmer makes great effort to maintain the cattle population on his farm because he harvests the benefit of these efforts.Governments have tried to solve the elephant’s problem in two ways. Some countries, such as Kenya and Uganda, have made it illegal to kill elephants and sell their ivory. Yet these laws have been hard to put into effect, and elephant populations have continued to dwindle. By contrast, other countries, such as Malawi and Namibia, have made elephants private goods and allowed people to kill elephants, but only those on their own property.With private ownership and the profit motive now on its side, the African elephant might someday be as safe from extinction as the cow. The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle pointed out the problem with common resources: “What is common to many is taken least care of, for all men have greater regard for what is their own than for what they possess in common with others.”8.Why does the author mention buffalo in paragraph 1?A.To introduce a similar threat to elephants.B.To provide an example of species extinction.C.To offer an explanation for government policies.D.To present the statistics of the buffalo in America.9.Why do elephants face threats while cows are safe?A.They are under different law protectionB.They attract different groups of huntersC.They contain different commercial valueD.They represent different ownership types10.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A.Bans on killing elephants for ivoryB.Effective laws for elephant protection.C.Methods of making elephants private goodsD.Government policies on the elephant’s problem11.What can we learn from Aristotle’s words?A.People hold little regard for others’ propertyB.People want to profit from common resourcesC.People care more about their own possessionD.People tend to take what they own for grantedAt a time when Americans consume more than half of their daily calories from ultra-processed (超加工的) foods, there is increasing evidence showing that eating too much of these foods can make us sick. A recent study published in the British Medical Journal finds people who consume high amounts of these foods have an increased risk of anxiety, depression, and certain cancers. The data come from more than 9 million people who participated in dozens of studies.Ultra-processed foods are ubiquitous in our food supply. Among the most common are highly refined breads, fast food, sugary drinks, cookies, and other packaged snacks. They are often high in salt, sugar, fat and calories and low in fiber and micro- nutrients such as vitamins.Although no evidence proves that consumption of ultra-processed foods can directly cause anxiety, cancer or other health conditions, a growing body of evidence shows that ultra-processed foods contribute to the development of these conditions.A study published last year found people in the habit of consuming high levels of ultra-processed foods were about three times more likely to develop cancer, compared to those who consumed the least. When it comes to mood and mental health conditions, a French study showed that adults who maintained an unhealthy diet had more depressive symptoms. “We saw a roughly 20 to 50% increased risk of depressive symptoms in people who had diets that were high in ultra-processed foods,” says Wolfgang Marx, a researcher.A panel of advisors is currently evaluating all the latest diet and nutrition studies as part of a process to update the country’s Dietary Guidelines. It is possible that they could recommend limits on ultra-processed foods. On the regulatory side, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ismoving ahead to finalize a new definition of the term “healthy”. The FDA says a “healthy” claim on food labels could help consumers identify healthier choices with a quick look and may encourage food companies to improve their products.12.What does the underlined word “ubiquitous” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Nutritious.B.Widespread.C.Cheap.D.Profitable. 13.What are the studies in paragraph 4 mainly intended to show about ultra-processed foods?A.They are linked to some health problems.B.They become more popular among adults.C.They directly lead to depressive symptoms.D.They should be consumed in a proper way.14.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.Food companies’ future plans.B.New guidelines for food sales.C.Limits on ultra- processed foods.D.Responses to ultra- processed foods. 15.Where does the text most probably appear?A.In a health magazine.B.In a biology textbook.C.In a medical guideline.D.In a food advertisement.16 . But I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn’t done an eBay deal. So, I decided to try my hand at online auction (拍卖).Buying for beginners: Sign up on . Most items (e.g. tables, computers, and books) ready for auction will come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with “Buy It Now” and have a fixed price. 17 .Process of bidding: If the item is being auctioned, you offer the highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids for you. The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and asked if you would like to bid again. Auctions last up to 10 days and when they finish you get an email telling you whether you have won the item.18 : Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before placing a bid as you might not want to post a cheque or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card.Selling is made simple: If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item.I followed my friends’ advice and put up the items I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starting on a Thursday. 1920 : It’s easy to post a small item, but for big items such as the furniture is a big part of eBay and this has to be collected or sent by deliverymen.A.The way of paymentB.Selling out-of-date itemsC.Everyone’s at it, even my folksD.The how of transporting big itemsE.You can purchase your items in no timeF.This way buyers had two weekends to bidG.It’s awesome to just turn your waste into good money二、完形填空In China, having a portrait of the deceased at the funeral holds great signifcance. Wu Muliang, a 24-year-old from East Chinas Fujian province, took on the responsibility of 21 funeral portraits for his fellow villagers.22 , taking funeral portraits for the elders was not part of Wu’s plan when he first decided to return to the village. He embarked on this task 23 . With a background in the new media industry, Wu was originally looking to make videos centered around agriculture and rural areas — topics that were 24 both on social media and at the state level.25 by his grandparents until the third grade of primary school, Wu saw them only once or twice a year thereafter. Wu’s grandfather passed away nine years ago. At that time, the family couldn’t find a 26 funeral portrait for him, and it has always been a(n) 27 for the whole family. The elderly, especially those in rural areas, 28 have their pictures taken and most of them have to use the one from their ID card. When Wu’s grandma asked him to take a funeral portrait for her, he was a little 29 . However, when he saw her getting excited while 30 the dress for the photo shoot, he changed his mind.In his small philanthropic (慈善的) photo booth, Wu took funeral portraits not just for his grandmother, but also for more than a dozen other elderly villagers. While taking these portraits,Wu also 31 some behind-the-scenes moments. He made these moments into videos and posted them online, which have now exceeded 4 million 32 on the video-sharing platform Bilibili. Many people left comments, saying that the videos reminded them of their own 33 .Wu was glad that he could help others and make 34 impacts. “I hope to do more to help 35 the memories of the elders in the village.” He said.21.A.painting B.capturing C.hanging D.printing 22.A.Therefore B.Otherwise C.However D.Instead 23.A.coincidentally B.purposefully C.enthusiastically D.helpfully 24.A.controversial B.heavy C.modest D.trendy 25.A.Cared B.Brought C.Guided D.Raised 26.A.proper B.true C.whole D.vivid 27.A.comfort B.annoyance C.regret D.worry 28.A.frequently B.rarely C.normally D.usually 29.A.nervous B.sympathetic C.upset D.relieved 30.A.choosing from B.picking out C.dealing with D.trying out 31.A.created B.cherished C.enjoyed D.recorded 32.A.views B.readings C.observations D.donations 33.A.contacts B.grandparents C.friends D.cousins 34.A.efficient B.necessary C.full D.positive 35.A.recall B.preserve C.shape D.waken三、语法填空阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Over the last three and a half years, the anti-littering woman has spent most of her free time picking up cigarette butts (烟头) from the streets of her home city.Called the “Butt Lady” by her local community, Dawly began her mission to rid the streets of her city of cigarette butts in October, 2014. The woman looked for cigarette butts, picked them up and threw them in the trash. To keep a count of how many butts she picks up, the Butt Lady has been using a tablet, and earlier this month, she hit a historic milestone—one million cigarette butts.“I got tired of going on my walks and seeing cigarette butts everywhere,” Sally Dawly said. “I’m just shocked that I had to pick up so many. I’ve ever picked up 3,000 butts in one day,” she said. “Don’t throw away your butts; better yet, stop smoking.”With so many cigarette butts littering the streets, can one person’s efforts really make a difference? Surprisingly, the answer seems to be yes. Soon after the Butt Lady of Auburn started her mission and word of her efforts spread, cigarette cans started appearing around bars and restaurants in the city. Members of the local community even came out to cheer her on as she approached her one-million-butt milestone.Sally knows her city’s cigarette butt littering problem won’t be solved anytime soon, but she hopes her work will inspire people to at least think twice before dropping cigarette butts in the streets. She has decided to continue cleaning up after irresponsible smokers, and already has a new milestone in her sights—two million cigarette butts.Word of the Butt Lady’s efforts to keep the streets cigarette butt-free has reached neighboring communities as well, and CBS Sacramento reports that other cities have started seeking her help as well.4. Why does Sally Dawly carry an iPad with her while picking up the butts?A.To entertain the crowds.B.To monitor the smokers.C.To attract people’s attention.D.To record the number of butts.5. How did Sally Dawly feel when picking up cigarette butts?A.Excited but upset. B.Shocked and sorryC.Frightened but content. D.Astonished and desperate.6. From the text. what can be inferred about Sally Dawly?A.She picks up nearly 3,000 cigarette butts every day.B.She will work in other cities in California in the future.C.She has set a new goal of picking up two million cigarette butts.D.She picked up one million cigarette butts with members of her community.7. What is the text mainly about?A.California’s “Butt Lady”.B.Fighting against smoking.C.Californians health problems.D.Smoking problems in California.We've all experienced it. We invite a friend to dinner, only to learn that she is the dreaded "V-word". Vegan is someone who allows a diet that contains no animal meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, or any other food that comes from animals. They differ from vegetarians, who generally still eat dairy and eggs as part of their diets. Vegans also typically abstain from using any other products that come from animals, such as honey and leather jackets.Back in 2008, vegans only accounted for around 0.5 percent of the U. S. population, or about one million people. As of polls taken in 2014, vegans now make up roughly 2.5 percent of the population. At least in the United States, women seem to be far bigger fans of veganism, making up around 79 percent of vegans.People on a vegan diet tend to be leaner. In a cross-sectional study of nearly 40,000 adults, meat eaters had the highest mean body mass index, or BMI. Vegetarians were in the middle, and vegans had the lowest. Based on several studies from Finland, some scientists have suggested that vegan diets may be helpful in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis(类风湿性关节炎). Vegans also appear to have lower rates of hypertension(高血压) than both meat eaters and vegetarians. Vegans also typically have lower cardio metabolic(心脏代谢) risks for conditions like heart disease or strokes.While there certainly may be some health advantages in going vegan, there seems to be some common deficiencies in the diet. One of these deficiencies is with the vitamin B-12. The ADA states that there are no natural plant foods that contain any significant amount of the vitamin. Vegans can still get it, but they need to take a vitamin or consume fortified foods like soy milk and certain breakfast cereals. Omega-3 fatty acids(欧米珈-3 脂肪酸) are also very difficult to come by on a vegan diet, but this can be overcome through the consumption of algae(海藻) supplements. With vegans requiring supplementation to meet their nutritional needs, it supports the claim that veganism is unnatural, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's unhealthy.Many health organizations, including the ADA, state that well-planned vegan diets are healthy and nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certaindiseases. It seems like no matter what your dietary preferences are, a healthy lifestyle can be achieved on or off a vegan diet.8. Which example illustrates he/she is a vegan?A.His/Her diet is made up of large amounts of plant-based carbohydrates.B.He/She eats meat on special occasions, usually pork, as well as small amounts of fish on a weekly basis.C.He/She believes small amounts of animal products are vital to good health, and they insist on eating them every day.D.He/She fries French fries by animal oil.9. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?A.Finland is the leading country in the world to study veganism.B.Vegetarians had the highest mean BMI.C.Vegan diets may be helpful in the treatment of cancer.D.The number of vegan in the U. S. is on the rise.10. Vitamin B-12 can be got from _______.A.various vegetables B.soy milk and cerealsC.water D.sunbath11. What is the writer's attitude towards going vegan?A.Objective. B.Subjective.C.Critical. D.Disapproval.ChatGPT is a new AI system that sounds so human in conversations that it could host its own radio programs. Reading between its instantly generated, perfectly grammatical lines, people see different visions of the future. Without doubt, ChatGPT is impressive.Some compare the emergenc e of ChatGPT to the impact of the iPhone, but that doesn’t do it justice. ChatGPT, as well as the generative AI that will follow and outsmart it, is more disruptive. And yet, that doesn’t necessarily mean the end of the world is upon us. On the contrary, C hatGPT, I would argue, might serve to make us more aware of our irreplaceable human qualities.Take the creative act, writing in particular, as an example. If you want it to, the AI-powered chatbot always produces something because it has the whole world of online data to draw from. But unlike us, it lacks the consciousness. Thinking is hard, critical thinking even harder, and ChatGPT isn’t good at either. It just restates what has already been said; it is one big recycling machine.There is another obvious limitation of ChatGPT. Philosopher Harry Frankfurt once claimed: the difference between a bullshitter (胡说八道的人) and a liar is that the liar knows what the truth is butdecides to take the opposite direction; a bullshitter, however, has no regard for the truth at all. The AI scholar Gary Marcus applies this distinction to ChatGPT. He believes that we have reached a critical point when “the price of bullshit reaches zero and people who want to spread misinformation, either politically or just to make a profit, start doing that plentifully”. Unfortunately, ChatGPT will reproduce misinformation from any of its input sources — it is not an intelligent system that tries to balance or weight different perspectives. In this sense, everything that ChatGPT writes is bullshit.This is why the so-called AIQ is critical. It is actually an extension and a measurement of our human IQ: our overall knowledge of AI tools, our mastery of clues, and our ethical awareness. ChatGPT is going to change everything and nothing. Creativity, imagination and ethics — these will all remain unique human domains. It is the AI’s very limitations that will make us appreciate our own.12. What can we learn about ChatGPT?A.It helps generate an artificial voice.B.It provides instructions on writing skills.C.It generates natural language responses.D.It offers a service for language learning.13.

They are also related to poor physical health and death from suicide.20 The fact that someone is not experiencing a mental health condition doesn’t necessarily mean his mental health is good. Likewise, it’s possible to be diagnosed with a mental health condition while feeling well in many aspects of life.Briefly, mental health is about being emotionally and socially healthy – the way we think, feel and develop relationships - and not merely the absence of a mental health condition.It is dark now when I begin my early morning walk in the woods.

From towering concrete pillars to sculptural modernist domes (穹顶), the work of Balkrishna Vithaldas Doshi defined Indian architecture for the latter half of the 20th century. Known as B.V. Doshi,projects to the Indian Institute of Management in Bangalore. Sadly, the great architect died on January 24, 2023, at the age of 95, leaving behind a fascinating legacy.Born on August 26, 1927, in Pune, southeast of Mumbai, Doshi grew up with his father and grandfather, a furniture maker. As a child he came to appreciate how their house grew and changed. In 1947, shortly before Indian independence, he began architecture school. However, he never finished, a fact which he’d later point to in life as an advantage. He married his wife Kamala Parikh in 1955. When she passed away, Doshi lived in a house he designed and named for his beloved wife.Doshi was influenced by the famous Swiss-French architect known as Le Corbusier. Doshi studied with him in Paris and then returned to India to supervise the architect’s work in Ahmedabad. In 1956, Doshi founded his own firm called Vastushilpa. He traveled the world lecturing at universities, worked with other famous architects, and even founded the Center for Environmental Planning and Technology (now CEPT University) focusing on understanding, designing, planning, constructing and managing human habitats.“We did not want to imitate someone else’s approach,” he told the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in 2018. “We wanted to find our own identity.” He drew from his pride in Indian culture to create a style distinct from Western designs. “I think of my buildings as my friends, my family,” he said. “I have a conversation with them, and that’s how I create niches and staircases and openings and gardens…my buildings are not only pure and clear but designed to anticipate changes.”Aside from his modern works, Doshi was devoted to creating works to benefit the poor. He designed the Aranya Low Cost Housing Project in Indore. The photographer Iwan Baan,who photographed some of Doshi’s works, described the artist as “the most approachable architect I know. Even very poor people in his public housing projects knew him, which is exceptional.”4.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “versatile” in paragraph 1?A.popular B.modest C.forward-looking D.well-rounded 5.What do we know about Doshi’s life?A.He had a miserable childhood.B.He regretted leaving school early.C.He made a contribution to higher education in architecture.D.He set up his company under the guidance of Le Corbusier.6.What does the author want to illustrate by quoting Doshi’s words?A.The public support for Doshi.B.The originality of Doshi’s works.C.Doshi’s open mind on Indian culture.D.Doshi’s love of architectural design.7.What is the purpose of the text?A.To define India’s modern architecture.B.To encourage people to visit Doshi’s works.C.To advertise Doshi’s architectural philosophy.D.To give a brief account of India’s great architect Doshi.New words emerge in English all the time. In fact, in recent years more new words and phrases are entering the language than ever before, partly due to the increased willingness of lexicographers (词典编纂者) to include them in the dictionaries.John Algeo who studies the history of language says, “As our culture changes, the language changes. American culture is going through a time of rapid change.”Technology is moving fast, which has a big effect on language. The computer world produces hundreds of new words. New terms also come from business, medicine, and other fields.Many new English words come from other languages. David Jost helps create the American Heritage Dictionary. “We constantly borrow words from other cultures,” he says. “This will go on forever in cultures.”“People in many parts of the world speak English now. That is another reason why so many new words are entering the language,” says Algeo.The American Dialect Society has a contest each year. The society selects a “new word of the year”, which gains high level of popularity on media for some days. Last year the winner was “information superhighway”, referring to a whole set of electronic network of information and people getting access to this network by computer.New words often come in several forms, such as the back-formation (like enthuse from enthusiasm), the clipping (like zoo from zoological garden), and the compounding, etc. Over time, one form tends to win out. Take the compounding for instance. “Domestic partners” has been growing popular lately, even though many terms have been used to describe couples who live together but are not married.“A new word rarely can be traced to one source,” says Algeo. “Several people fend to create a new word when a need for one exists.”“Most new words have a limited life ‘span’,” say language experts. Only a few will survive through the next 100 years.8.What might have least effect on English language?A.Culture.B.Technology.C.Other languages.D.Language contests.9.What does the writer want to demonstrate by mentioning “domestic partners”?A.It is a compounding word.B.New words often come in several forms.C.Over time, one form tends to win out.D.A new word rarely can be traced to one source.10.What can we learn from the passage?A.New words occur all of a sudden.B.New words will become old or extinct.C.Information technology helps the American Dialect Society.D.American culture changes rapidly as well as English language.11.What’s the best title of this passage?A.New Words Developing NaturallyB.English Language Changing RapidlyC.English V ocabulary in a State of DevelopmentD.New Words Influencing English LanguageCancer-fighting genes in elephants could help tackle one of the biggest killers of people, according to research. Despite their large bodies and long lifespans, elephants are much less likely to die from cancer than humans, with death rates of less than 5 percent.The paradox has puzzled scientists because more cells lead to greater replications (复制), which increases the possibility of the body failing to detect damaged DNA or a faulty cell that can result in tumors(肿瘤). Elephants live for almost as long as humans and weigh up to five tons.However, a group of British and European scientists say they have taken a big step towards solving Peto’s paradox, named after the British epidemiologist Sir Richard Peto. Elephants, they say, carry a much larger more diverse group of tumor-fighting proteins.The findings, published last week in the journal Molecular Biology and Evolution, raise hopes that the cancer fighting genes in elephants could be the key to tackling cancer, which kills about 167, 000 Britons yearly. Cells keep dividing throughout an organism’s life, each carrying the risk of producing a tumor. One of the body’s weapons is a gene called p53 known as the “guardian of the genome”, which hunts cells with faulty DNA.It encourages the cell to repair itself or self-destruct, keeping the cell from combining with others and producing tumors.Humans have two versions of p53 but elephants have 40, said the researchers. Biochemical analysis and computer simulations also showed that an elephant’s p53 genes are structurally slightly different, providing a much larger anti-cancer toolkit. The researchers suspect that while faulty cells might be able to skirt two p53 versions, they cannot combine with other cells as easily in the face of dozens.The findings will open the way for research on how p53 genes of elephants are activated and on medical treatment for humans.12.What has puzzled scientists?A.Few elephants end up dying from cancer.B.Elephants live long and weighenormously.C.More cells lead to higher chances of tumors.D.A larger body is less likely todiscover faulty cells.13.What can be learnt from Paragraph 4?A.How many Britons die each year.B.How the anti-cancer gene works.C.How the research was carried out.D.What the findings have been applied to.A.Strengthen.B.Detect.C.Escaped.D.Cure. 15.Which is the text mainly about?A.Scientists find elephants live longer than humans.B.P53 genes play essential role in preventing cancer.C.Elephant genes could be key to fighting cancer.D.Groundbreaking treatment for cancer is on the way.Pursue Y our Dreams Today, Not TomorrowHave you caught yourself daydreaming about your dreams? We often postpone our dreams, trapped in a cycle of delay. But why wait? 16 You don’t have to take a huge, life-changing step. You can take minute steps toward a brighter future. And start right now.17 If you never try, you’re going to be weighed down by your regrets. You’re always going to wonder how your life would’ve turned out if you actually took a chance on yourself. Don’t let your future self be disappointed by your present self.It doesn’t matter how old you are or how many people have warned you that you’re never going to succeed. Even the most successful people have had their hesitations about whether they had what it took to make it in their field. 18 Embrace a mindset of determination, knowing that success is within your reach.At the end of the day, you need to carve out a path for yourself that will lead to the most satisfaction. If you allow your fear to get the best of you, you’re never going to forgive yourself. 19 . It’s what you would encourage your friends to do, so why aren’t you giving yourself that same push?Sometimes, following your passion means spending a lot of your time each day. It may require making slight adjustments to your schedule, but you don’t have to sacrifice everything to follow your hearts. Try to strike a balance between your current life and your dreams.20Pursue your dreams now, even though that means you might need to break out of your comfort zone, and even though it means entering the unknown.A.Ask yourself what would be worse.B.Starting small is completely acceptable.C.You owe it to yourself to go after your dreams.D.New opportunities may lead to personal growth.E.If things go well, you can gradually make further shifts.F.You need to move past your insecurities and explore your full potential.G.Hard as it is, it’s crucial to wave off the doubts in the back of your mind.二、完形填空Mattew Shifrin has been building with Legos (乐高积木) since he was 5 with the help ofcame this 40 ,'' Shifrin said.21.A.time-saving B.life-changing C.world-shaking D.heart-breaking 22.A.instructions B.rules C.skills D.requirements 23.A.invented B.remembered C.mentioned D.knew 24.A.getting B.practicing C.ignoring D.typing 25.A.mix B.fix C.mend D.gather 26.A.blind B.deaf C.poor D.rich 27.A.in his favour B.in his turn C.on his own D.at his convenience28.A.truth B.connection C.balance D.independence 29.A.patterns B.designs C.replacements D.arrangements 30.A.warn B.allow C.force D.trouble 31.A.impossible B.dangerous C.easy D.safe 32.A.experiment B.performance C.practice D.experience 33.A.published B.selected C.identified D.canceled 34.A.putting up with B.catching up with C.reaching out to D.keeping away from35.A.previous B.missing C.smart D.right 36.A.spread out B.blew up C.faded away D.paid off 37.A.company B.website C.buildings D.children 38.A.encouragement B.preparation C.involvement D.recommendation 39.A.predicted B.wished C.assumed D.expected 40.A.long B.far C.deep D.fast三、语法填空阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Before starting, she took her son Sam to her friends, Bill and Kate, and asked them to look after him for the day. Sam, an independent boy of six years old, had black hair and was wearing a pair of jeans and a bright yellow shirt.At eleven o'clock Bill took Sam into town. Sam walked along behind Bill, looking at the windows of all the shops they passed. After lunch they went to the park and walked about. The whole place was very crowded. Bill stopped to buy some chocolate. When he turned round to give some to Sam, the boy wasn't there. Bill ran round calling Sam, but he couldn't find him.

"Kerrel, I don't want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when you are around him."AIDS wasn't something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together any more and my dad lived alone. For a while, he could take care of himself. But when I was 12, his condition worsened. My father's other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.We couldn't afford all the necessary medicine for him because Dad was unable to work. I had no money for school supplies and often couldn't even buy food for dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely lost, the teacher's words muffled as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.I did not share my burden with anyone. I had seen people react to AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even adults could be cruel. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on the bedside even though he was too weak to feed himself.I had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret, I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless, I called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on the phone for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my life .I was 15 when my father died. He took his secret away with him, having never spoken about AIDS to anyone. Even me, he didn't want to call attention to AIDS.49.

Increasingly, engineers are saying that robots are going to move out of research departments and into your home. Companies including Sony and General Electric are working on designs for small robots. Products like the Roomba, a robot that can clean floors, are flying off the shelves.What’s behind this new robot revolution? It’s partly a matter of technology. Devices that can recognize and respond to a human voice have been developed. There are now a few different ways for robots to move around. They can walk, crawl or ride on wheels. Robots are being made smaller and smaller. They are also becoming more and more energy efficient.A bigger part of the story is on the demand side. From the day the television remote control was invented, people around the world have searched for new ways to be lazy. Take into consideration that more and more people can afford robots, and the time seems ripe to introduce robots to the average family.To be sure, robots that walk on two legs and talk like people are still a long way off. However, robots that do basic housework such as cleaning or gardening are sure to come out soon. One thing is certain---when these robots do come to our homes, it will change things forever.53.

Everyone is becoming unwell.” This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unwell person who lived in Rome in AD 53 wrote it.We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives.But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives?Picture this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the telephone is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done.Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, not even any electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps that is because they live simpler lives.One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without a ll the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons, Benjamin, 10, and Thomas, 7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phone.The grandmother, Lyn, said, “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes.” The boys said they fought less. Probably, they said, because there was less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a trendy, been-drinking granny, to one who cooked things.57.
