第Ⅰ卷Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)AIt was a Saturday morning,a day I believed would end in victory.For weeks,I had been preparing for the match at the county fairgrounds,sponsored(赞助) by our local riding club.My horse,Tonka, and I could run faster than any other kid in the county, and I hoped to bring home a blue ribbon.My mother usually drove me to the riding events, but on this day, my father planned to drop us off at the fairgrounds with the horse trailer(马车).Although we never discussed it, my father's struggle with alcoholism had become the silent centre of our family life.My mother was paralyzed with fear and indecision.Her salary as a part-time nurse couldn't possibly support four children.No one talked about alcoholism in those days,and it was my family secret.We climbed on the trailer and my father pulled out of our driveway and headed towards the fairgrounds,picking up speed once we hit the main road.It wasn't until we felt a big bump that I realized the trailer was out of control.The dream of my riding winner disappeared.Tonka lay on the floor, completely still.No words were possible.I knew he was dead.Suddenly a man appeared.“Are you all right?” he asked.“Yes.”I answered,although I knew that nothing was all right.“Sit here on the grass,”he said.He bent down to look into the trailer.Tonka remained still.He touched Tonka and then turned to face me.“He is going to be OK.He has just been knocked unconscious.” He rub bed Tonka's cheeks and gently pulled his ears.Tonka rose to his feet.Our father was talking to a police officer.He was upset and in pain and took little notice of me.I looked back;the man was gone.I never forgot him.He gave me strength and a sense of hope in a dark and frightening moment.1.The writer went to the fairgrounds because he wanted to ________.A.take part in a horse racingB.buy Mum a blue ribbonC.join the local riding clubD.train his horse there2.We can learn from the third paragraph that ________.A.the family kept silent at homeB.the family lived a secret lifeC.Father was addicted to alcoholD.Mother was physically disabled3.What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?A.Once formed,bad habits are difficult to break.B.Unexpected kindness is a light that shines in the darkness.C.However mean your life is,meet it and live it.D.Family is a place of encouragement, a safe harbour in the storms.BSince I became a full-time freelancer(自由职业者), I've found one of the hardest things to do is to get up early. Without the danger of being fired, there just hasn't been a lot of motivation(动机) to get out of bed.I've quickly learned that getting up is the key to success and better yet: waking up early is really just a habit.The most important thing to keep in mind is that you must have strong reasons to get out of bed. Motivation is the only thing keeping us from lying in bed all day.Writing down all the big and important things you'll do the next day can give you an extra push in your goal to wake up early and quickly.Don't read in bed. Spending as little time as possible in bed will actually help your body realize that the bed is for sleeping, and not for lying awake for hours. The goal of reading in bed is just to help you fall asleep within 10 minutes.Stress is one of the main causes of poor sleep. Relax yourself before getting into bed. Try controlling breathing exercises or taking yoga exercises to lower your stress level.These are just a few ways you can use to wake up earlier. Finding the best way is the most important, and it requires a little work. The key thing is that waking up should be a pleasantexperience. If you can make waking up something you are looking forward to, you're already halfway on your journey towards becoming an early riser.4.What do we know about the author?A.He has a full-time job outside. B.He likes lying in bed all day.C.He was once fired by a company. D.He has difficulty getting up early.5.The author gives us some tips to help us________.A.find the key to success B.become an early riserC.fall asleep within 10 minutes D.relax after a day's hard work6.Which of the following is NOT true about doing yoga?A.It is a good way to reduce stress. B.It can help you sleep.C.It can make you worried. D.It will help you wake up earlier.CWhat an athlete eats before, during and after exercise is important for comfort and performance during exercise. While eating soon before exercise doesn't provide the fuel needed for the activity, it can prevent hunger during exercise. The major source of fuel for muscles is stored in the days before exercise. This is one reason that the post-exercise meal is very important to recovery and being ready for the next exercise.Exercising on a full stomach is not a good idea. Food that remains in your stomach during an event may cause stomach upset. To make sure you have enough energy, yet reduce stomach discomfort, you should allow a meal to fully digest before the start of the event.If you have an early morning race or exercise, it's best to get up early enough to eat your pre-exercise meal. If not, you should try to eat or drink something easily digestible about 20~30 minutes before the event. The closer you are to the time of your event the less you should eat. You can have a liquid meal closer to your event than a solid meal because your stomach digests liquids faster.Because glucose(葡萄糖) is the energy source for most exercise, a pre-exercise meal should include foods that are high in carbohydrates and easy to digest. This includes foods such as fruit, bread, energy bars and drinks.Planning is necessary if you are competing in an all-day event, such as track meets or other tournaments. You should plan ahead and prepare meals and snacks that you have tried before. Do not experiment with something new on the event day.7.Fully digesting before an event may________.A.cause stomach upset B.give enough energy and stomach discomfort C.give comfort and good performance during exercise D.lead to hunger during exercise 8.From the passage we can learn________.A.you'd better have your pre-exercise meal after an early morning raceB.fruits and bread are high in glucose and easy to digestC.planning is not necessary for track meetsD.you can try something new for your meals on the event day9.What does the underlined word “digest” mean?A.Absorb. B.Interest. C.Disappear. D.Recover.10.What is the best title for the passage?A.Tips for eating before exercise B.What to eat during exerciseC.Fully digesting before exercise D.Planning for your exercise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。

Criticism from coaches, parents and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional,or psychological and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take theirparents and coaches’ criticisms to heart and find faults in themselves.Coaches and parents should also be cautious that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today’s youth sport setting young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find faults with youngsters’performances. Positive support should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive support motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.36.An effective way to prevent the burnout ofyoung athletes is_________.A.to make sport less competitiveB.to increase their sense of successC.to reduce their mental stressD.to make sport more challenging金戈37.According to the passage,sport is positive foryoung people in that__________.A.it can help them learn more about societyB.it enables them to find faults in themselvesC.it can provide them with valuableexperiencesD.it teaches them how to set realistic goals forthemselves38.Many coaches and parents are in the habit ofcriticizing young athletes________.A.believing that criticism is beneficial for theirearly developmentB.without realizing criticism may destroy theirself confidenceC.in order to make them remember life’slessonsD.so as to put more pressure on them39.According to the passage parents and coachesshould________.A.pay more attention to letting children enjoysportB.help children to win every gameC.train children to cope with stressD.enable children to understand the positiveaspect of sport40.The author’s purpose in writing the passageis________.A.to teach young athletes how to avoid burnoutB.to persuade young children not to worry aboutcriticismC.to stress the importance of positive support tochildrenD.to discuss the skill of combining criticism withencouragementBIf the Olympic Games are a history of mankind,wrestling(摔跤)is the prologue(序幕).When the ancient Games of the Olympiad were born,wrestling was already an ancient game.Widely recognized as the world’s oldest competitive sport,wrestling appeared in a series of Egyptian wall paintings as early as 5,000 years ago.When the ancient Olympic Games began in 776 BC,more than two thousand years later,it included wrestling and in the years that followed,wrestling featured as the main event.The sport would return in a similar role when the Olympic Games returned after a 1500-year absence in anizers,seeking direct links to ancient times,found wrestling was very popular across much of the ancient world,from Greece,Assyria and Babylon to India,China and Japan.Greco Roman wrestling,a style which was believed to be passed down from the Greek and Roman wrestlers of old was brought back into use.In Greco-Roman wrestling,the wrestlers used only their arms and upper bodies to attack.They could hold only those same parts of their opponents(对手).It worked nicely from a historical attitude,but another cheerful and relaxing style was sweeping across Great Britain and the United States by then.Known as “catch as catch can”,it had become popular at fairs and festivals in both countries.In 1904,the Olympic Games added the second wrestling event and called it “freestyle”.Now,wrestlers could use their legs for pushing,lifting and tripping,and they could hold opponents above or below the waist.41.The first ancient Games of the Olympiad wereheld more than_______ years ago.A.776B.1,500C.2,500D.5,00042.What does the writer want to tell us by saying wrestling is the prologue?A.The ancient Olympic Games had a long history.B.Wrestling was an important game in theancient Olympic Games.C.Wrestling is popular all the time.D.Wrestling has a really long history.43.Why was Greco- Roman wrestling brought back into use in 1896 when the Olympic Games returned?anizers wanted to find direct links toancient times.B.Wrestling was very popular across much of theancient world.C.People believed it was passed down from theGreek and Roman wrestlers of old.D.All the above.44.Another style of wrestling became popularacross Great Britain and the United States,because it was________.petitiveB.difficultC.cheerful and relaxingD.interestingCThe Olympic Games are held every four years in a different city in the world.Athletes from many countries compete in a variety of sports which are divided into winter and summer games.The Olympics began in Greece more than 2,700 years ago.The games were originally part of a religious金戈festival in honor of the Greek gods.Eventually,the games became the most important festival in all of Greece.The first recorded Olympic competition was held in 776 B.C.It was held in an outdoor stadium which was about 200 meters long and 300 meters wide.The stadium was in a valley,and about forty thousand people watched the event.The first thirteen Olympics consisted of only one race—running.Since 776 B.C.,the games had been held regularly for about 1,200 years.In 397 the Olympics were prohibited by the Roman Emperor.It was not until 1896 that the first Olympics of modern games were held in Athens.From then on the games are held every four years regularly.The Olympics have become the world’s most important athletic events and a symbol of the sporting friendship of all the people of the world.45.The first modern Olympic Games were held.A.about 115 years agoB.about 200 years agoC.about 251 years agoD.about 300 years ago46.What does this passage mainly tell us?A.The history of the Olympic Games.B.Various sporting events of the OlympicGames.C.The Standard size of an Olympic stadium.D.Several important athletic events in ancientGreece.47.Which of the following statements is false?A.The Olympic Games were once prohibited.B.The first recorded Olympic competition washeld in honor of the Roman Emperor.C.Running used to be the only sporting event inthe ancient Olympic Games.D.Today the Olympic Games are the world’smost important athletic events.DWhat is America’s number one sport? Can I still say baseball? You could make that statement 30 years ago,but things have changed.Baseball of course has the richest history of all sports. But with the popularity of basketball and American football,there can now be an argument on which sport is American’s number one pastime.Basketball really took a turn in the 1980’s as Magic Johnson and Larry Bird took the NBA to another level. Of course,basketball was already popular and had seen such stars as Jerry West and Dr. J.,but the real breakthrough came in the 1980’s and it really took off with Michael Jordan into the 1990’s. Basketball has even become very global now as many NBA stars competed in the Olympics and faced no competition. Today,they had better be ready because there are so many talents in other countries and the competition will be stiff.Like basketball, American football has always been a favourite of many sports fans and its popularity has grown widely.The ratings that Super Bowl Sunday brings are amazing. They have even talked about making Super Bowl Sunday a national holiday.In the year 2050, basketball and American football will have history like baseball’s rich history and may be American national sports. They have been trying for years, but it is not going to happen.So what is America’s number one sport? To me baseball will always be America’s pastime—rich in history and many memories for folks of all ages. If you have any comments on this subject,do not hesitate to give your opinions.48.This passage mainly talks about________.A.baseball and its historyB.the most popular sport in the worldC.which sport is the number one in AmericaD.whether basketball is a global sport pastime49.Which of the following words can replace theunderlined word “stiff” in Paragraph Two?A.safeB.hardC.crazyD.strong50.The author wrote the passage to_________.A.persuade people to support baseball asAmerica’s number one sportB.introduce the history of different sports inAmericapare different kinds of sports that arepopular among American peopleD.express his idea that baseball is America’snumber one sportⅣ.语法填空(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)T here was once a lonely girl who longed so much for love.One day while she was walking in the woods she found two starving birds. __51__She cared them with love and the birds grew strong.Every morning they greeted her with a wonderful song.The girl felt the great love from the birds.__52__The larger and stronger of the two birds flew from the cage.The girl was so frightened that金戈he would fly away.As he flew close,she grasped him wildly.Her heart felt glad at her success in capturing him. __53__She opened her hand and stared in horror at the dead bird.Her desperate love had killed him.She noticed the other bird moving back and forth on the edge of the cage.She could feel his great need for freedom.He needed to fly into the clear,blue sky. __54__The bird circled once,twice,three times.The girl watched delightedly at the bird s enjoyment. __55__She wanted the bird to be happy.Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her shoulder.It sang the sweetest song that she had ever heard.The fastest way to lose love is to hold on it too tight,while the best way to keep love is to give it wings!A.She gave them some delicious food and left.B.Suddenly she felt the bird go softly.C.Her heart was no longer concerned with herloss.D.One day she left with the two birds at homealone.E.She took them home and put them in a smallcage.F.One day the girl left the door of the cage open.G.She lifted him from the cage and threw himsoftly into the air.Ⅴ.书面表达(满分30分)最近你们学校将开展“创建文明班级(civilized classes),共建和谐校园(harmonious campus)”活动。

一起来看看吧!Questions about the 2022 Winter OlympicsThe Chinese city of Beijing has been named host of the 2022 Winter Olympics,beating out Almaty,Kazakhstan in the process.Still,there's plenty of uncertainty over Beijing's ability to host wintertime athletics.Here are the questions Fortune has about the 2022 Games:1.____________________________________________________The pride of hosting an Olympic event has lost some of its luster in recent years.Hosting the Olympics might seem like it affords international bragging rights,but in reality it's a big economic drain.Greece's 2004 Athens Summer Olympics left the country with $11 billion in debt,according to CNN.Beijing's own 2008 Summer Games,meanwhile,cost $44 billion.The previous Winter Olympic Games,held in Sochi,Russia,cost about $50 billion.2.____________________________________________________Beijing is not exactly a winter city—but then again,neither was Sochi.So expect fake snow.Lots and lots of fake snow.Here's a little on how Sochi achieved the winter miracle,per The New York Times:Machines make snow the same way nature does,by freezing water droplets.But they do it a few feet above the ground,rather than in the much colder conditions high in the atmosphere.Snowmaking machines employ a few thermodynamic tricks to help,but at times there is a limit to what physics can do.Temperature is key in this process.Should Beijing be too warm around the time of the Games,things may get a little risky.Still,as CNN notes,Beijing will host the ice-based events,while competitions requiring snow will be held about 120 miles to Beijing's northwest in Zhangjiakou.3.____________________________________________________Beijing officials,of course,are doing their best to dissipate doubts regarding the city's smog and pollution issues.For what it's worth,the city did curb pollution effectively in 2008,so it's possible it could repeat those efforts.Xu Jicheng,who helps lead Beijing 2022's press efforts,said in a statement that “technically the pollution has been reduced and controlled,we have seven more years to go and it will be sunshine and white clouds.”[词海拾贝]1.luster n.光彩,光辉2.brag v.吹牛,自夸3.miracle n.奇迹4.thermodynamic adj.热力的,热力学的5.dissipate v.消除6.curb v.抑制[问题思考]Fill in the blanks 1-3 with the suitable questions.(There is one extra heading which you do not need.)A.What about the pollution?B.How much will it cost China?C.How can Beijing host Winter events?D.Will there be any economic benefit at all?答案:1.B 2.C 3.A自主预习步步提高词汇识记Ⅰ.将单词与其正确释义配对1.compete A.主人;做东;主办2.magical B.座右铭;格言;警句3.volunteer C.巫术的;魔术的;有魔力的4.regular D.容许;承认;接纳5.basis E.替换;取代6.admit F.规则的;定期的;常规的7.host G.志愿者;志愿的;自愿8.responsibility H.比赛;竞争9.replace I.责任;职责10.motto J.基础;根据答案:1.H 2.C 3.G 4.F 5.J 6.D 7.A 8.I 9.E10.BⅡ.根据所给汉语提示写出单词1.________adj.古代的,古老的2.________n.奖章;象征;表示3.________adv.现今,现在4.________adj.身体的;物理的5.________n.运动员;运动选手答案:1.ancient 2.medal 3.nowadays 4.physical 5.athleteⅢ.根据语境及首字母提示写出正确的单词1.Which country will h________the next Summer Olympic Games?2.She will c________with Mary in this dancing competition.3.She now helps to teach children in a local school as a v________three days a week.4.He likes doing exercise at the fixed time,and the r______exercise has made him energetic.5.Even though he is a child,he has the courage to take the responsibility and is willing to a ________ having made mistakes.6.His cell phone was out of order,which made him decide to buy a new one to r________it.7.He was a fierce c________who just wanted to win!答案:1.host pete 3.volunteer 4.regular5.admit 6.replace petitorⅣ.选用短语的适当形式完成句子used to;

Today its membership consists of the 205 National Olympic Committees.The International Olympic Committee (IOC) is responsible for selecting the host city, overseeing the planning of the Olympic Games, updating and approving the sports program, and negotiating sponsorship and broadcasting rights.2) The Olympic symbol 奥运会标志The Olympic symbol, better known as the Olympic rings, consists of five intertwined (缠结) rings and represents the unity of the five inhabited continents (America, Africa, Asia, Australasia, Europe). The colored version of the rings—blue, yellow, black, green, and red—over a white field forms the Olympic flag. These colors were chosen because every nation had at least one of them on its national flag.3) The Olympic motto 奥运会箴言The Olympic motto is Citius, Altius, Fortius, a Latin expression meaning “Swifter, Higher, Stronger". Coubertin's ideals are further expressed in the Olympic creed:The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.4) The Olympic flame奥运会火炬Months before each Games, the Olympic flame is lit in Olympia in a ceremony that reflects ancient Greek rituals (仪式). A female performer, acting as a priestess, ignites (点燃) a torch by placing it inside a parabolic (抛物线的) mirror which focuses the sun's rays; she then lights the torch of the first relay bearer, thus initiating the Olympic torch relay that will carry the flame to the host city's Olympic stadium, where it plays an important role in the opening ceremony. 5). The Olympic mascot 奥运会吉祥物The Olympic mascot, an animal or human figure representing the cultural heritage of the host country, was introduced in 1968. It has played an important part on the Games identity promotio n since the 1980 Summer Olympics, when the Russian bear cub Misha reachedinternational stardom. The mascots of 2008 Summer Olympics, in Beijing, were the Fuwa, five creatures that represent the five fengshui elements important in Chinese culture.More about the Olympic Games?Did you see American figure skater (花样滑冰运动员), Jeremy Abbott, crash to the ice during the short program at the Sochi Olympics, rolling into the wall, clutching (抓住) his side in pain. Ten seconds later, he got up and continued his skate—despite the pain, embarrassment and fear. All I could think was: t his kid’s got courage. In business we have a word for it—resilience, the ability to gain strengths and confidence from overcoming unpleasant events.New Games sports may be added (2018 重庆巴蜀中学二模)The International Olympic Committee has canceled the 28-sport cap (限制) for future summer Olympics But each summer Games will still only be allowed 10, 500 athletes and 310 events. Countries that could host the games will discuss plans with the committee during a new invitation stage before bidding. They are also allowed to hold events outside their own countries and get financial support from the committee. No changes will be introduced for the 2018 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.拓展训练The origin and development of the OlympicThe modern Olympic movement originated in Western culture, prevalent in the world, and has become the spiritual civilization of mankind to share the results.Ancient Greece Olympia Village is a "god City", where leaders of Zeus built the temple gods. Each year the city must be held to this ritual activities (entertainment gods activities).

But the Austrian art group who created the bunny were ________ to find that it is so large that the rabbit can be seen from space via the Google Earth programme.The pale-pink bunny lies flat on its back in the Italian Alps. It took more than five years to build the bunny and it is set to stay there until 2025. It is made of soft, waterproof materials and filled with straw to make it comfortable to rest on. It was placed in a country spot called Artesina near Cuneo and attracts many visitors each year.Wolfgang Gantner of the Vienna-based art group, Gelitin, said, “It’s supposed to make you feel small, like Gulliver. You walk around it and you can’t help but smile. We like to see hikers climb up the bunny’s 20 ft sides and relax on its belly. ”The group have posted the rabbit’s location on its Gelitin website along with a poetic description of the creation. It reads:Behind a hill, as if knitted(编织)by giant grandmothers, lies this vast rabbit, to make you feel金戈as small as a daisy(雏菊).Happy you feel as you climb up along its ears, almost falling into its cavernous mouth, to the belly top and look out over the pink woolen landscape of the rabbit’s body, ears and limbs(四肢)reaching into the distance.36. The word “________”can be placed in the blank in Paragraph 2 most properly.A. interestedB. amazedC. happyD. anxious37. The giant pink rabbit has been created ________.A. to greet the year 2025B. so it can be seen from spaceC. to show people’s love of climbingD. as a tourist attraction38. What does the underlined word“it”in Paragraph4 refer to?A. The art group.B. Gulliver.C. The bunny.D. The belly.39. What do we know about the rabbit from the description on the Gelitin website?a. It is behind a hill.b. It makes visitors feel very small.c. Its belly may be the highest point of the body.d. Its ears and limbs can be taken from its body. A. a, b, c B. a, b, dC. a, c, dD. b, c, d40. Which of the following may be a possible picture of the rabbit?BYou’ve just had an argument with someone; you have money worries, a sick child, or mice in your room. The thoughts dance through your mind and just won’t go away. How do you get rid of them?The technique for dealing with this stressful monologue(独白), in which you are both the talker and the listener, is called“Thought-Stopping”. Yell something sharp and loud to interrupt the flow of stressful conversation. Try words like, “Stop it! Enough! Cut it out! Cool it!”Obviously, it’s a good idea to do this when you’re a lone; otherwise you may alarm your family or co-workers! Try it for a few days and then gradually lower the messages until they’re silent.Thought-stopping, however, is only half the story. The second part of the exercise is to use some form of mind distraction. You purposely start thinking about something else—pleasant activities for the weekend, who to invite for lunch, or gift ideas for an upcoming birthday. Or you might think about your next vacation or the trip you took last summer. One of my favorite images is lying on the beach at Paradise lsland in the Bahamas, seeing very clearly in my mind the white sand, the blue water, the bright sunshine and palm trees waving gently in the breeze.Another way to keep unwanted thoughts from happening during the day is to use some form of “physical diversion. Pick up the phone and call a friend; take up a magazine; turn on the radio or TV; have something to eat; do a crossword puzzle or focus your mind on something exciting and challenging like sports activities.The amazing thing about thought-stopping and thought substitution(代替)is that, simple as they are,they’re very effective. Patients have left me voice mail messages over the years in which they’ve added at the end,“And by the way, thought-stopping really works!”So you see, we can’t stop thoughts from appearing in our heads, but we can change the way we feel by changing the way we think.41. The author of this text is most probably ________.A. a psychologistB. a nurse disturbed by his/her patientsC. a patient suffering from mental illnessD. a teacher majoring in psychology42. The underlined word“diversion”in Paragraph 4 probably means something that ________.A. attracts your attentionB. raises your interestC. changes your focusD. makes you do more exercise43. Physical diversion is suggested as a form of ________.A. thought-stoppingB. thought substitutionC. mind distractionD. stressful monologue44. The last sentence of the text suggests that金戈________.A. thinking goes after feelingsB. thoughts appear easily into one’s mindC. feelings are much more importantD. people can control their thinking45. How many methods are mentioned to get rid of unwanted thoughts in the passage?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.CMegan was a very important person to me. She was my role model. She was the strongest person I knew. Though she developed cancer in the seventh grade, she never complained about it; instead she often cheered up the other children in the hospital.When the cancer spread to Megan’s hip, shoulders, and lungs, she knew she would be in heaven soon. Megan spent her last days with her family at home, shopping on the Internet, reading Harry Potter books, eating Cookie Crisp, and watching movies. She died peacefully in her living room holding her brother’s hand on July 11, 2007.I spent the rest of the summer alone and felt depressed, and then it was time for the new school year. I decided that I didn’t want to sit around and cry any longer. I was ready to make a difference. I thought about Megan and it hit me that I’d start an organization to help kids in the hospital who were sick as she had been. I told my friends about it. We decided to weave friendship bracelets(手镯)from string and deliver them to the hospital.Two months later, when we had made 100 friendship bracelets, I started making calls. The hospital Megan was in said they would love to have us, and we arranged to go on Halloween. That day when we arrived at the hospital, we went room to room on the pediatric floor to deliver our bracelets, and watch the children’s faces light up. At the end of the hour, we were empty-handed but felt wonderful.We asked to return on Thanksgiving, and the organization took off from there. We named our organization Lovelets: Megan’s Bracelets Of Hope. We now use donated money to buy small gifts like pillows, animal toys, books, art projects, and other items for kids with cancer. I know Megan is smiling from heaven and giving us a thumbs-up. We love keeping M egan’s spirit alive and making sick children feel better.46. What was Megan’s reaction to her getting cancer?A. She complained about it sometimes.B. She cared more about other patients thanherself.C. She focused on the need of herself.D. She tried exciting and adventurous things.47. The underlined word“it”in Para. 3 refers to________.A. the author’s depressionB. the author’s opinion on MeganC. the idea of starting an organizationD. the idea of delivering bracelets48. What can we know about the visit to the hospital on Halloween?A. Magan’s friends taught children there to makefriendship bracelets.B. Both the children and Megan’s friends werepleased with this visit.C. The visit is helped by Lovelets: Megan’s BraceletsOf Hope.D. After the visit, the hospital received manydonated gifts.49. Which of the following words can best describeMegan?A. Sensitive and curious.B. Strong and kind.C. Friendly and creative.D. Independent and modest.50. What’s the best titl e for the text?A. For MeganB. Against CancerC. At HospitalD. With ChildrenDFew laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled—to $1. 01 per pack—smokers have jammed telephone “quit lines”across the country seeking to kick the habit.This is not a surprise to public health advocates. They’ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.The only wonder is that so many states insist on金戈closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health, they raise money and most particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost$10. 06 at one drugstore Wednesday. In Charleston, S.C., where the 7-cent-a-pack tax is the lowest in the nation, the price was$4. 78.The influence is obvious.In New York, high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys—13. 8%, far below the national average. By comparison, 26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky. Other low-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smoking records.Hal Rogers, Representative from Kentucky, like those who are against high tobacco taxes, argues that the burden of the tax falls on low-income Americans “who choose to smoke”.That’s true. But there is more reason in k eeping future generations of low-income workers from getting hooked in the first place. As for today’s adults, if the new tax drives them to quit, they will have more to spend on their families, cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better.51. The text is mainly about ________.A. the price of cigarettesB. the rate of teen smokingC. the effect of tobacco tax increaseD. the differences in tobacco tax rate52. What does the author think is a surprise?A. Teen smokers are price sensitive.B. Some states still keep the tobacco tax low.C. Tobacco taxes improve public health.D. Tobacco industry fiercely fights the tax rise.53. The underlined word“deter”in Paragraph 3 mostprobably means ________.A. discourageB. removeC. benefitD. free54. Rogers’ attitude towards the low-income smokersmight be that of ________.A. toleranceB. unconcernC. doubtD. sympathy55. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The new tax will be beneficial in the long run.B. Low-income Americans are more likely to fall ill.C. Future generations will be hooked on smoking.D. Adults will depend more on their families.Ⅳ. 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

高中英语Unit2 The Olympic Games文章 古代奥运会人教版必修二
古代奥运会在古希腊,有四大祭礼竞技赛会,以祭祀万神之王宙斯的奥林匹克运动会规模最大、延续时间最长、名声最高。
奥运会在古希腊人心目中是整个民族精神象征。
一、起源古代奥运会起源于公元前776年,每4年在夏天举行一次。
那时战争连年不断,各城邦都利用体育锻炼武士使之身强力壮,体育运动在这种情况下发展起来,并逐渐形成了有组织的运动竞赛。
古希腊人信奉多神教,每逢重大的祭祀节日,各城邦都举行盛大的宗教集会,以唱歌、舞蹈和竞技等方式表达对诸神敬意。
古希腊人认为宙斯为众神之首,对他的祭祀格外隆重。
古希腊人民厌恶连年不断的战争,渴望和平,希望在奥运会举办期间,以神的名义实行休战,以减少战争、摆脱灾难。
二、比赛场地最初的奥运会比赛在奥林匹亚村的阿尔齐斯神域内进行,后来在神域的东北角修建了一块长方形运动场,周围有依天然地形修成的看台。
运动场跑道宽32米,每次可供20名选手同时比赛,长为192米。
起跑线用石条铺成,上面刻有两道平行的小槽,供运动员起跑时使用。
三、奥运盛况古代奥运会延续一千多年,既是竞技大会,又是一个全国性节日。
"神圣休战"宣布之后,许多人涌向奥林匹亚,在那里,各城邦的代表参加祭祀活动和游行;政治使节缔结条约;艺术家展出作品;学者和教师研讨学术;雄辩家发表演说;商人展售商品;人们穿着最华贵的衣服,带着最珍奇的珠宝。
选手在竞技场上奋勇拚搏,他们赤身裸体进入赛场,向神和观众展示他们超人的体能、健美的身体和良好的教养。
奥运会也起到了推动政治交流、促进贸易发展、繁荣希腊文化、融合民族感情的作用,全希腊人民在和平气氛中欢聚一堂,内容丰富,场面壮观,形成了全希腊最盛大的节日。
四、衰落公元前五世纪末,泼罗奔尼撒战争使希腊奴隶制开始走向衰败,也是古代奥运会由兴到衰的转折点。
战争使经济萧条,社会风气低下,运动竞技失去了原来的意义,逐渐成为追求财富的手段,运动会上出现了营私舞弊、损人利己的不良倾向,奥运会的崇高理想受到扭曲。

Benefits of honestySarah Darling met a homeless man called Billy Ray Harris and gave him her purse, with all her change in it. It was not until the next morning she realized that she had left her diamond ring in the purse. To her surprise, when she and her husband Bill Krejci found Billy, Billy immediately returned the ring. The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying out their pockets.However, Bill Krejci, a web designer, felt that he needed to do something more for this honest man. He set up a special page for him on money- raising site "Give Forward" with a goal of raising $1,000 in 90 days. In just four days, the donations rose to over $85,000.That was not all. Because of all the media coverage, Billy reunited with his elder brother, Edwin Harris who he had not met for 27 years. The two talked for 45 minutes on the phone and Edwin was planning to take Billy to his home in Lubbock, Texas. All this good fortune came just because Billy did the right thing - He returned something that did not belong to him. Honesty is surely the best policy!【写作内容】1.以约30个词概括短文的内容;2.以约120个词就“因诚实而得到的收获”发表你的看法。

They live in groups, and speak to each other in their own language. In this they are like other animals, such as bees and birds. But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals. Their brain is nearly the same size as our own, and they live a long time —at least twenty or thirty years.Like some animals, dolphins use sound to help them find their way around. They also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds, but the lower part of the mouth, called the jaw.Strangely, dolphins seem to like man, and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century. In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand, they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack. From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called The penguin shot and wounded Jack. He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area-except for The Penguin.Today, some people continue to kill dolphins, but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.1. Dolphins are different from many other animals in that they _____.A. live in groupsB. have large brainsC. are warm-bloodedD. have their own language2. Which of the following does the dolphin use to help it find its way around?A. Its nose.B. Its ears.C. Its mouth.D. Its eyes.3. Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look for Jack?A. He was lonely and liked to be with people.B. They enjoyed playing with him.C. He was seriously wounded.D. They wanted his help4. By telling the story of Jack the writer wanted to show that _____.A. dolphins are friendly and cleverB. people are cruel to animalsC. Jack is different from other dolphinsD. dolphins should be protected by law参考答案I 完形填空:1-5. ABCAB 6-10. CDBDB 11-15. DCCBC 16-20.

The sport I like best
Of all the sports, I like table tennis best. I think it is not only a sport but also an art, because it is a game that needs strength and skill.
Some people think that playing table tennis needs little strength, but I don't think so. When playing the table tennis, we should judge the direction of the ball, and hit it back with great strength so that we can win the game. So after one game you will be very tired if you have tried your best. However, as a sport, I think it more like an art. In the game, you can often find the ball moving quickly, and the players' movements are very beautiful.
Though I can't play table tennis very well, I still show great interest in it.
I think playing table tennis can build up our bodies, keep us healthy and train our brains.
