The other day I wrote an email to another classmate, Beth, in which I said some things about Rena that perhaps weren't very nice. Unluckily, when Beth was writing back to me, she accidentally forwarded(无意间转发) the message to Rena! Now Rena is really angry with me and won't talk to me, and Beth is unhappy as well. She's said sorry to me a hundred times already, but the harm is done. I feel bad, because I never would have said those things to Rena's face, but how do I get her to forgive(谅解) me? What should I do? JoeTo:**************From:***************Subject: Some adviceDate: 22/06/2005 10:45 AMDear Joe,This problem is more common than you might think!

Explain that it was a mistake, and that you didn't mean to hurt her feelings. It may take time for her to be able to forgive you, but that's up to her. Then you might want to do something nice for her. Perhaps send her some flowers to show that you're truly sorry. Also, you should remember that old saying:" If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." And good luck! Aggie1. What is Joe's problem in the first email?A.

Joe has said sorry to Rena many times alreadyD. Rena hasn't forgiven Joe yetBWhy don’t birds get lost on their long migratory (迁居的) flights? Scientists have puzzled over this question for many years. Now they’re beginning to fill in the blanks.Not long ago, experiments showed that birds rely on the sun to guide them during daylight hours. But what about birds that fly mainly by night? Tests with artificial (人造的) stars have proved conclusively that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights.One such bird—a warbler(鸣禽) —had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a natural sky. Yet it showed an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird’s cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky at migration time. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the direction of the make-be-live stars caused a change in the direction of his flight.Scientists think that warblers, when flying in daylight, use the sun for guidance. But the stars are apparently their principal means of navigation (导航). What do they do when the stars are hidden by clouds? Apparently, they find their way by such landmarks as mountain ranges, coast lines, and river cours es. But when it’s too dark to see these, the warblers circle helplessly, unable to get their direction.6. The reasons why birds don’t get lost on migratory flights ______ . .A. have been known to scientists for many yearsB. have only recently been discoveredC. are known by everyoneD. will probably remain a mystery7. The bird mentioned in this article ________ . .A. was captured and put in a cage by scientistsB. had never flown under a natural skyC. was tamed and tested by scientistsD. was a bird that can speak8. Warblers migrate _________ . .A. from North America to South AmericaB. only once during their lifetimeC. using what is apparently an inborn navigational abilityD. when they are freed from their cages9. When the stars are hidden by clouds, warblers find their way by _____ .A. an artificial starB. their inborn abilityC. some landmarksD. A and B10. This article is a good example of the way scientists _______ . .A. jump to conclusionsB. discover workable answers to general questions by studying particular cases.C. find a law and then investigate.(调查)D. are disappointed by the habits of animals.四.单词填空: 10小题(10分)请根据汉语提示或首字母写出单词的正确形式1. Could you please tell us something about wildlife ___________ (保护)?2. Wild plants and animals have many _________ (敌人), among whom man is the most dangerous.3.

A4 Popular Places to Go This WinterHarbin, ChinaChina Harbin's winter is for the brave ones—the average temperature is 1.8 —but those who brave the cold will be rewarded by experiencing one of the world's largest winter festivals. This year marked the 33rd Harbin International Ice and Snow Sculpture Festival (January-March), when massive frozen structures rose and were lit up, transforming the city into a winter wonderland.Lyon, FranceParis may be called the City of Light, but every December, light takes center stage in Lyon, France's third-largest city. That's when the annual Festival of Lights (December 5-8) takes over, with more than 70 light installations that transform the city's streetscapes into modern works of art. The city is also home to two Christmas markets (one in La Croix-Rousse; the other at Place Carton; through December 25).Lima, PeruPeru's capital Lima is home to the world's highest number of cooking schools per person. Aside from its delicate dining, the city also has great cocktail bars where you can taste classic or contemporary takes on the Pisco Sour. Combine that with the oceanfront setting and temperatures in the 80s, and you'll understand why Lima should no longer be ignored this winter.Vermont, USWinter in Vermont means skiing and snowboarding. This year, many resorts (度假村) have greatly upgraded their snowmaking abilities as part of a $15 million statewide program that replaced many outdated snow guns with new, low-energy models. These new machines will also improve the quality of snow surfaces and lengthen the season, meaning this will be one of the best winters for skiing and ridingin Vermont in recent memory.1.What similarities do the first two places have?A.They are decorated with lights.B.They offer snow sculptures.C.They have three-day festivals.D.They are extremely cold.2.Which provides a good chance to buy a Christmas gift?A.Harbin.

Unlike most of the Netherlands, Hilversum is actually in a hilly area with the soil mostly made up of sand. Once called the Garden of Amsterdam, it still attracts travelers to come over to cycle and walk through the surrounding forests. They visit it for a relaxing day off from the urban madness. For Dutch people, Hilversum is all about textile (纺织) and media industries, and modern architecture.In history, Hilversum was largely an agricultural area. Daily life was marked by farming, sheep raising and wool production. A railway link to Amsterdam in 1874 attracted rich traders from Amsterdam to Hilversum. They built themselves large villas in the wooded surroundings of the town. One of the families moving in was the Brenninkmeijers, currently the wealthiest family of the Netherlands. They moved in after big success in the textile industry and meant to build a large and important textile industry in Hilversum. But the textile boom lasted only several decades. The last factory closed in the 1960s.The change to a media economy started in 1920, when the Nederlandse Seintoestellen Fabriek (NSF) established a radio factory in Hilversum. Most radio stations moved over in the large villas in the leafy areas of the town. Television gave another push to the local economy. Hilversum became the media capital of theNetherlands, and Dutch television stars moved into the leafy neighborhoods surrounding the town.In the early 1900s, modern architects W.M. Dudok and J. Duiker placed hundreds of remarkable buildings in Hilversum. These modern architectural masterpieces are so many that Hilversum almost feels like an open air museum. Dudok alone shaped most of 20th century Hilversum and about 75 buildings still bear his unique characteristies. His masterpiece, Hilversum Town Hall, was built in 1928-1931. It has wide international fame and is included in many architecture textbooks. The building has a remarkable shape and looks like a combination of “blocks”. Actually, one may start his journey of modern architecture by walking or biking the W. M. Dudok Architectural Route in Hilversum.4.Hilversurn is different from most of the Netherlands in that ________.A.it has a large populationB.it is cut off from big citiesC.it has many beautiful gardensD.it is in a hilly area with sandy soil5.What was the greatest contribution of the Brenninkmeijers to Hilversum?A.Building a railway link to Amsterdam.B.Helping its textile industry to develop.C.Constructing large villas for the poor.D.Assisting its agricultural industry.6.The beginning of the media industry in Hilversum was marked by the establishment of ________.A.a radio factory B.the media capitalC.a radio station D.a TV station7.What is known about W.M.Dudok's Hilversum Town Hall?A.It consists of approximately 75 buildings.B.It looks like an open air museum in the city.C.It is a classic example in architecture textbooks.D.It has shaped most of 20th century Hilversum.CIreland's Achill Island has always been a popular European tourist destination.However, since April, the small island of just 2,600 residents has gained worldwide fame thanks to the magical return of a beach that was washed away over three decades ago.The chain of events began in 1984 when residents of Dooagh, one of the five settlements (定居点) on the island, awoke to a surprising sight: their beautiful sandy beach had been washed away by strong Atlantic storms.There were only rocks and rock pools left.For about 34 years, only small amounts of sand returned to the once natural shores.The area's tourism industry slowly decreased, and the scores of beachside hotels, pubs, and restaurants gradually closed as well.Then, around Easter last year, something magical happened—an unusual ten-day tide blanketed the barren 300-meter long rock beach with hundreds of tons of soft golden sand.Scientists suspect that the sand had been gathering offshore for months and was transported to the beach by the high winds and powerful waves.The locals are delighted to have their beach back, especially as it is attracting thousands of visitors wishing to witness the power of nature, with their own eyes.However, Sean Molloy, manager of Achill Tourism, cautions against going into the cold waters just yet, saying, “Because of the sand comin g in, we don't know how safe the beach is now because currents could be changed and it'll take a little bit of time.” He instead recommends visitors enjoy the soft sand and leave the swimming to the dolphins that frequent the area.Interestingly, this is not the first time Dooagh Beach has pulled a disappearing and reappearing act.It disappeared in the 1890s, for over 30 years, before returning in 1927.However, the locals are optimistic that this time around, the beautiful sand is here to stay.8.What has brought Achill Island worldwide attention recently?A.An unusual storm.B.The decrease in the number of residents.C.The return of its beach.D.The building of a new tourist destination.9.What happened to Dooagh in the past three decades?A.Tourism went down gradually.B.Restaurants developed slowly.C.Storms attacked frequently.D.Rock pools disappeared completely.10.What does the underlined word “barren” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Noisy. B.Soft.C.Bare. D.Golden.11.What should tourists avoid according to Sean Molloy?A.Spoiling the shores.B.Getting into the rock pools.C.Playing with dolphins.D.Swimming near the beaches.DImagine looking for your lost dog. You step into a cave. But instead of the dog, you find beautiful cave paintings. You see paintings of horses, deer, and bison that were drawn in black, brown, red and yellow. Your first question would probably be “Who did this?”This is what happened to four French boys in 1940.They found the Lascaux caves. The paintings the boys discovered in those caves are about 17,000 years old. They were drawn by the ancient people called Cro-Magnons.Cro-Magnons looked much like people of today. They used tools, such as fishing nets. But their art was extremely good. The main cave at Lascaux is called Great Hall of Bulls, which has a picture of bulls and horses in many colours. The largest animal is 18 feet long. There are smaller animals, such as bison, stags and a bear. There is also a strange spotted two-horned (两只角的) animal.To the left of the main cave are the most famous paintings that are the drawingsof animals in many different colours. One painting is called Little Horses. On the ceiling are horses and cows. The most unusual sight may be in the Shaft of the Dead Man where there is a rhinoceros, a carefully drawn dead man, an injured bison and a bird.Why did Cro-Magnon artists do these beautiful drawings on cave walls? Did the drawings call upon some magic power? Did the Cro-Magnon people hope that the drawings would bring good luck? There is one thing the paintings seem to tell us. The Cro-Magnons were interested in the world. They looked at beauty and they understood it.12.Most of the drawings in the caves are about ________.A.boys B.toolsC.humans D.animals13.What does the passage mainly tell us?A.The cave paintings are beautiful.B.Who found the beautiful cave paintings.C.The Lascaux caves hold colourful ancient paintings.D.Drawings of horses are on the walls of the Lascaux caves.14.The passage is most probably taken from ________.A.a research paperB.a cultural magazineC.a science newspaperD.a travel guide15.The author uses the word “You” in Paragraph 1 to ________.A.attract readers' attentionB.make it clear that this is a true storyC.give readers good directions to find the cavesD.compare modern people with Cro-Magnon people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。

AIf you go to Hollywood and look around the coffee shops and restaurants,it is unlikely that you will meet your favourite film star.However,it is almost certain that you will meet Dennis Woodruff.Dennis is a “film” star—well,sort of.You learn this quickly because he tells everyone he meets about this.He wears a T-shirt that says “Dennis Woodruff,world-famous actor”.He also hands out videotapes of his films for $10.Dennis describes himself as Hollywood’s best-known out-of-work actor.He has been looking for work for 25 years.It is true that he has been on television over 300 times and has worked in about 45 films,as an extra (临时演员) of course.“Actually,I’m a film star.It’s just that no one has realized it yet,” says Dennis.You can watch him auditioning (试演) for parts in front of the security cameras (监控摄像头) at local restaurants.People recognize him and then,sadly,ignore him.One of the saddest tales he tells is about how he nearly made the big time.The famous actor John Wayne was going to give him a chance,but unfortunately he died.The famous producer Otto Preminger wanted to make him a star.He also died.Dennis first had the idea of selling himself over 20 years ago when he asked a director why he had been refused for a part.“Because you’re not a big name in Hollywood,” came the answer.Dennis immedia tely wrote his name in huge letters on the top of his car.It didn’t get him any work,but it did get him noticed.Dennis has set up a production company with his brother,and he has sold 15,000 copies of his videos.True success,he feels,is just around the corner.1.What is people’s reaction to Dennis’ behaviour at local restaurants?A.They cheer him on.B.They try to follow him.C.They pay no attention to him.D.They talk with him about films.2.Why did Dennis write his name on his car?A.To show his courage.B.To fight with a director.C.To advertise his latest film.D.To make himself well known.3.What would be the best title for the text?A.A Rising Star in HollywoodB.The True Success of a Film StarC.Famous for not Being FamousD.Big Star for not Starring in Films4.What do we know about Dennis from Paragraph 2?A.He is hugely popular.B.He tries to sell himself.C.He has produced many films.D.He is easy to make friends with.BGoldfish have pretty boring lives, so maybe it’s a good thing that they can only concentrate for nine seconds!But according to a newspan(时长) research, humans are becoming like goldfish.Our attentionis getting shorter...and it’s all because of technology.“We move quickly from one site to another on the web,” says Doctor Ted Selk er, a computer scientist from Massachusetts,“and we are losing the ability to concentrate.” With millions of websites to choose from, the attention span of the average Internet user is just seconds.There are other digital distractions(分心) too:e-mail, instant messaging and quickie movies on websites.Some people are worried about the effect on young people.“You need time to understand and think about what you read,”says Julia Wood, from London.“Young people search the net all the time and their brains become full of useless information but there is no time to make sense of it.I am trying to persuade my pupils to read more books, so that they concentrate on one subject for longer.”Other teachers are trying more unusual methods to improve students’ concentrati on.Anne Savan, from Wales, was so worried about her students that she started playing Mozart during her sciencelessons.She says that it had an amazing effect,“The music made them calmer, and their concentration was much better.”But not everyone believes that there is a problem.Ray Cole, an educational psychologist says,“On the web, young people learn to make quick decisions about what is and isn’t worth reading.They might look at five unhelpful websites very quickly, before stopping and reading a sixth useful website more carefully.In a world with so much information available, this is an important skill.”5.Why does the writer mention “goldfish”?A.To analyze data.B.To introduce a topic.C.To settle problems.D.To suggest a way out.6.What may cause a shorter attention span according to Dr.Ted Selker?A.Skipping around the Internet.B.Time to digest information.C.Traditional methods of reading.D.Making decisions.7.What will help students overcome a short attention span?A.Receiving emails.B.Texting messages.C.Reading more books.D.Watching quickie movies.8.What is Ray Cole’s attitude towards looking through websites quickly?A.Cautious.B.Unfavorable.C.Skeptical.

[A]The World Around UsChannel (频道): C8A study of the ancient Egyptian pyramids (⾦字塔) and the area around the River Nile in Egypt. The filming of this programme is a work of art as it is so thoughtfully done. As well as the obvious camels, there are also many other desert animals and plant life.Summer HolidaysChannel: M6Some of the best summer holidays are on offer this year. Tonight’s programme shows a weekend in Disneyland in Paris, cheap sailing holidays in the Mediterranean and a shopping and sightseeing trip to New York.The Creative MindChannel: C4One of the most popular programmes on TV at the moment, The Creative Mind has different artistic themes (主题) from exhibition reviews, information about major and smaller museums, and interviews with artists, writers, actors and musicians. Prepared for Special MomentsChannel: TF1The fun cookery programme that offers lots of exciting ideas from children’s birthday parties to that candlelit dinner for the boss and his wife. Easy to follow step by step instructions that show you how to make your dinner party a little bit special. Born to RunChannel: W9An interesting story of a young man with learning difficulties who overcame (克服) the problems in his life, through his great talent (天赋) for athletics. This is a true story of how one person made the most of his life and also helped many other people with similar problems.21. Which channel should you turn to if you are very interested in wildlife?A. C4.B. M6.C. C8.D. W9.22. Which programme is suitable for those who like watching TV interviews?A. The World Around Us.B. Summer Holidays.C. The Creative Mind.D. Prepared for Special Moments.23. Which of the following words can best describe the hero of Born to Run?A. Creative.B. Dishonest.C. Self-centered.D. Strong-minded.[B]Madeleine Hamilton’s school in Franklin, Tennessee, recently made a big decision: Recess (课间休息) would come back. Madeleine and her sixth-grade classmates would go outside for 20 minutes every day. They could catch up with friends and kick a soccer ball around. “Recess is the one break in the day to relax and have fun,” she says.Most middle school students don’t get that chance. That’s be cause most middle schools don’t have recess anymore. Experts say that about 40 percent of U.S. school districts have cut recess time.Now, more and more experts agree: Schools should put recess back on the schedule.Students have been heading outside for recess since at least the 1800s. But in the 1980s, some U.S. schools started to cut recess. Why? American students weren’t doing as well in school as students in other countries. To catch up, many schools in the U.S. cut recess. This made more time in the schedule for important subjects like science and math.But research shows that taking a break can actually help students learn. Your brain can get overwhelmed (应接不暇的) when you move from subject to subject without a break. That makes it harder for you to remember new information. Scientists say that resting your brain helps it work better.Even adults (成年⼈) have started taking breaks to rest their brains — and play. At Google, employees can stop working to use the office’s LEGO station. And workers at Faceboo k can play video games in the company’s arcade (游戏机厅).Recess doesn’t just help students learn. Moving around can also help keep kids healthy. People who exercise daily can avoid extreme sadness. They are also less likely to become overweight.Of course, kids can get hurt playing sports like dodgeball. Some schools have cut recess to avoid broken arms and legs. Schools also need adults to keep students safe on the playground during recess. Some schools can’t afford to pay anyone to do this job.And 73 percent of school-age kids in America play sports or do other athletic activities after school. Do they really need to take time out of busy school days for recess?24. How does Madeleine feel about her school’s big decision?A. Worried.B. Excited.C. Moved.D. Surprised.25. Why did many U.S. schools cut recess in the 1980s?A. To ensure students’ safety.B. To shorten students’ school days.C. To save time for students to study.D. To let students play sports after school.26. What’s the real purpose of the L EGO station at Google?A. To help workers relax.B. To keep workers strong.C. To provide new information for workers.D. To help workers learn how LEGO works.27. What does the underlined part “this job” refer to?A. Teaching students how to play sports like dodgeball.B. Protecting students from getting hurt during a break.C. Designing after-school athletic activities for students.D. Giving students medical care if they are hurt at school.[C]What do you usually do when a flying insect lands on your arm? Most likely you blow it away. But what if that bug were a ladybug (瓢⾍)? Then chances are you would let it stay. What is it about ladybugs that we like?Farmers once thought ladybugs were a good luck sign. A ladybug in the field meant that the crops (庄稼) would be successful and the weather would be good. The farmers may have been exaggerating (夸⼤) about what a very small bug can do, but in fact ladybugs do help out with the crops. They eat harmful insects.Actually, it is not the adult ladybug that eats t he other insects. It’s the ladybug larvae (幼⾍). Ladybugs lay their eggs on leaves that are covered with aphids or other insects. When the larvae come out of the eggs, they are very hungry and will eat mites, aphids, mealybugs, green flies, and other crop-destroyers.A single ladybug larva can eat over 1,000 aphids in one day. In the 1800s, ladybugs were brought all the way from Australia to California and set free among orange trees that were dying from being eaten by insects. The little red and black “eating machines” completely saved all the trees.Ladybugs go about their daily business without worrying much about anything. Very few birds or insects will eat a ladybug because it gives off something that isdangerous to eat. Ladybugs also protect themselves by playing dead. They fall off leaves and remain very still until their enemy goes away.So next time you see a ladybug, think about what it may be up to. Maybe it is off to save an orange tree. Maybe its next move will be to fall off a leaf and play dead or stand up to a bird about 100 times its size. Maybe it’s letting you know that the weather will be good tomorrow. Who knows? Ladybugs are special that way.28. What do we know about mites and aphids?A. They do harm to the crops.B. They eat more than they should.C. They are food for adult ladybugs.D. They are the enemy of ladybug larvae.29. Why were ladybugs brought from Australia to California in the 1800s?A. To report the weather for farmers.B. To increase their number.C. To do research on them.D. To save orange trees.30. What does the underlined part “stand up to” in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Play with.B. Worry about.C. Get along with.D. Fight back against.31. What does the author think of the ladybug?A. It is a crop-destroyer.B. It is a good luck sign.C. It is a little flying helper.D. It is a big eating machine.[D]Each year, people are becoming more and more worried about the future of our planet. People are now starting to agree —global warming will certainly make a dif ference to the world’s weather. While some parts of the world may have morefloods (洪⽔), some other parts might have long periods of dry weather. All of this will have a serious influence on the world’s agriculture (农业). And that could make it difficult for us to get enough food to survive.This explains the idea behind the Svalbard Global Seed Vault (种⼦库). The Seed Vault is built into a mountain on an island near the North Pole. The purpose is to protect the world’s agriculture from future disasters. This may not just be a question of global warming. Perhaps there will be a major nuclear disaster or war one day. These things won’t be a problem for Svalbard.Some experts think that the population of the earth will probably go up by 50% in the next 40 years. Because of climate change, it probably won’t be easy for some plants to survive. Having many different types of plants will be necessary for agriculture to adapt to (适应) changes in the environment. In the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, there is space for 4.5 million types of seed. At the moment there are over 770,000 different types there.Any country in the world can leave seeds in Svalbard without paying. The seeds of some plants, such as peas, only survive for 20 to 30 years. But others will last for hundreds of years.In 2028, the Svalbard Vault will celebrate its 20th birthday. 200 years in the future, it’s possible that the ice caps will disappear. Even if this happens, Svalbard will be safe. That’s because it is on a mountain and will be above the sea level. And because it is so close to the North Pole, even if their electricity stops working, the ice will keep a cool temperature of -3.5℃ to keep the seeds in good condition. But the best protection is the fact that it is in such a faraway place. After all, maybe one day this will be the most important building in the whole world.32. What does the first paragraph mainly introduce?A. The role of agriculture.B. The reason for global warming.C. The future problems we’ll face.D. The planet where we’ll liv e in the future.33. What is the Seed Vault mainly used for?A. Storing plant seeds.B. Growing more plants.C. Discovering new plants.D. Providing humans with food.34. What do we know about the Seed Vault?A. It needs more space.B. It provides services for free.C. It is built above a mountain.D. It will close in 200 years.35. If there is an electrical problem at the Seed Vault, what will happen to the seeds?A. They will be sent away.B. They will still be safe.C. They will be of no use.D. They will be planted at once.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。

research.C.Cook them as food on the table.D.Set them free back to the river.3.Whom is this text written for?A.Students.B.Teachers.C.Scientists.D.Adventurers.B“Am I beautiful now,Mama?”My heart quickly fell to my stomach.“What do you mean,now?”“Now that my hair is all done,I’m beautiful,right?”I had just put the brush down by my side when my stomach immediately somersaulted(翻滚) in guilt and fear and my mind was instantly puzzled with confusion.Why was she questioning this?Didn’t she already know?I told her how beautiful she was every morning when she rose for the new day and every night as she drifted off to sleep.I wanted to yell that this world attached too many attempts to “make pretty”and commercialized the use of product after product.I tried to control my heart and explained to her,“Baby girl,you are beautiful every day because you are kind and smart,creative and brave.You use good manners and stand up for yourself.” I put my hand on her heart and pulled her in close.“But styling your hair doesn’t make you beautiful.And wearing certain colors or styles can’t do it either.What makes you beautiful is the person you are.Do you know where beauty really comes from?”She thought for a minute.I gently tapped my fingers that were still resting on her heart.“From inside here.And your heart shines so brightly that it makes you incredibly beautiful.” I could feel her heart start to beat a little stronger and a smile appeared across her face.I squeezed her tight and added,“You are so beautiful,baby girl,and I hope you never stop believing it.And I hope you never let anyone tell you differently.”She stood up and brushed her freshly braided hair off her shoulder.“I know,Mama.I’m beautiful because I’m ME.”The somersaults stopped.The guilt and fear were washed away.The confusion was clarified.“Hey Mama,” she said as she started to walk away.“You are beautiful,too.”4.What was the mother’s reaction to the girl’s questions?A.Shocked.B.Excited.C.Disappointed.D.Embarrassed.5.What can we infer about the author’s daughter?A.She wasn’t confident in herself.B.She wasn’t pretty and smart at all.C.She was brave to face all challenges.D.She was particular about appearance.6.What does the author intend to teach her daughter?A.Everyone is beautiful.B.Beauty comes from inside.C.Love is the most important.D.Smile is the key to happiness.7.What did the daughter think of her mother at last?A.Her mother was kind and thoughtful.B.Her mother looked as beautiful as her.C.Her mother demanded too much of her.D.Her mother was an understanding person.CMany people travel to enrich and enjoy themselves.However,their travel methods may be different each year.Lonely Planet and Forbes concluded some top trends in 2021.Here are three of them for you to take a look.Solo travelTraditionally,travel seems to be a group activity to have fun together and avoid loneliness.But solo travel became popular,especially among young people in 2021.Traveling on your own means that you are the boss of everything,choosing wherever you want to go,whatever you eat and whenever you go out.For some people,it also makes them a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything.Traveling in a totally foreign land on your own can be challenging.“It opens up your mind to new things,and pushes you out of your comfort zone,” Kristina Wegscheider,a traveler from the US,told Travel Pulse.Augmented attractionsWorld travel can be expensive.But virtual reality(虚拟现实)and augmented reality(增强现实),or VR and AR,are giving more possibilities to travel for little cost.With ever-improving headsets,smartphones and Wi-Fi connections,people can have a 360-degree experience of museums,theme parks and historical sites.With these technologies,visitors can experience the surface of Mars with just a headset,or view a sea cow’s growing flesh before their eyes in a museum.Getting off the touristy pathThere are always some “must-see” spots anywhere you travel.But traveling in such places always brings problems like overcrowding and noise.In order to have a better travel experience,many tended to visit less famous places in 2021.With less transportation and fewer things to do,visiting a little town lets people slow down and notice the little things.Take a walk,ride a bike,sip coffee a little slower,take a deep breath and explore the natural scenery.8.What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text?A.To describe the travel trends of 2021.B.To encourage more people to travel.C.To recommend hot travel spots.D.To explain what makes a good trip.9.How do VR and AR change the way we travel?A.They allow us to visit places at a low cost.B.They make museums the hottest destinations.C.They challenge us to walk out of our comfort zones.D.They make space travel a reality for ordinary people.10.Why do many choose not to travel to the “must-see” spots?A.Because they have seen them before.B.Because they will spend too much money.C.Because there are too many tourists there.D.Because they hate local people there.11.What are the last two paragraphs mainly about?A.Problems with visiting “must-see” spots.B.Tips for tourists who like to get close to nature.C.Why it is important to slow down to travel.D.Why some people prefer to visit less famous places.DTeenagers who travel around the world alone have been making headlines quite often.A young person alone in a dangerous situation attracts attention and sponsors.Young sailors also attract various views.For example,Jessica Watson was asked by the government to cancel her voyage,yet the Prime Minister called her “a hero for young Australians” when she returned.It seems that there is confusion about the competence and independence of young people.The popular psychologists tell us that teenage brains are likely to make wrong judgments.But such ideas often do not apply to specific individuals.Between the ages of 14 and 18,teenagers vary greatly in their abilities.The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their age but by discussion with the related,responsible adults.Some teens are certainly inexperienced and can make childish mistakes,but the ones who attempt dangerous journeys normally do so by winning the confidence of hard-headed and well-qualified adult supporters.But it’s also wrong to think that any 16-year-old can desire to get achievements as unusual as Jessica Watson’s.Watson calls herself “an ordinary girl who has a dream”.Her intention is to encourage teenagers but this idea can have the opposite effect of making them feel not good enough because great achievements are beyond them.Should all teens have such dreams?Actually,individuals face varying circumstances that restrict their dreams.Teenagers who travel around the world alone should not be judged by preconceived (事先形成的) views about young people.Nor should young “ordinary” teenagers feel stressed to long for extraordinary personal goals.In fact,I believe the example of solo sailing overstressesindividualism.The teenage years are when most of us “ordinary” people learn that we can achieve great things in

Unit4 单元能力测评第一部分阅读理解第一节阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

AEveryone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do. things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don't always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don't get along well, which doesn't mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away, and we feel very sad. We miss them much, but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name(以……命名)their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women who have been friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.There's more good news for people who have friends. They live longer than those who don't have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares. If someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.【1】The first paragraph tells us .A. none needs friendsB. making friends is the need in people's lifeC. we always need friends around usD. we need to be alone【2】Which of the following is the most probable place people name after the friendly people according to the article?A. A house.B. A room.C. A village.D. A library.【3】If people have friends, they would live longer, because .A. they feel happier and healthierB. they get a lot of help from their friendsC. they take better care of themselvesD. both A and C【4】This passage tells us .A. that people are all friendsB. that people need friendsC. how to get to know friendsD. how to name a placeBIt was almost two o'clock. A cold wind had come up, over the lake. As a black cloud moved across the sun. Walt, a small boy, looked up. "I smell a storm(暴风雨),”he thought.Shorty, a man of forty, had gone into town. He had said he would be back before two. He had told Walt to watch the boats and the shop. There were no people around. They had all gone out on the lake to fish. So Walt went to work on one of the boats. From there he could hear the telephone if it rang. And he could watch the door.It was a little after two when the stranger came. Walt saw him stop by the shop. The stranger looked in for a minute. Then he went down to the boats. He was a big man in a coat. Walt called to him, “Do you want something, sir?"The stranger looked at Walt and said, “No, thanks. ” Then the stranger moved slowly away. As he went on, he looked at the boats one by one.Walt sat there with his eyes on the back of the stranger's coat. He thought, “I can smell something as I smell that storm. I hope Shorty comes back soon. ”【5】Walt stayed because .A. there were no people aroundB. Shorty had gone shoppingC. people went fishing on the lakeD. Shorty had asked him to watch the boats and the shop【6】What do you think of Walt?A. He was slow.B. He was weak.C. He was careful.D. He was interesting.【7】Which of the following is true?A. The stranger came to see Walt.B. Shorty came back on time.C. Walt worked far away from the shop.D. Some people lived around the shop.【8】At the end of the story Walt thought .A. the stranger would not come back againB. Shorty would not return soonC. trouble might happen around the shopD. Shorty would lose his life in the stormCSuhklal lives in India. He works every day, but he can only buy food, not anything else, even clothes. One day, Suhklal heard about a non-profit(非营利性的)organization called GOONJ. This organization does not give away free clothes or sell clothes for money. Instead, GOONJ asks people to work to help the community. In return, GOONJ supplies people with clothes. Suhklal said the experience made him happy. He felt proud of his work and his new clothes.In 1998, Anshu Gupta and his wife wanted to help the people affected by a crisis (危机),so they gathered all the clothes they had not worn. Looking at their gathered clothing, they wanted to start a new clothing organization. But they wanted their organization to be different from others. They wanted to collect clothing all year round-not just in times of crisis. And more importantly, they wanted to serve people in a way that made them feel proud when receiving clothes.GOONJ makes sure the clothing is given to people who can use it. For example,people in areas with low temperatures receive warmer clothes. And people in villages that wear traditional clothing would receive traditional clothing. GOONJ also reuses clothes that people can't wear. For example, a shirt with holes can be made into a bag or used to make a blanket.GOONJ helps organize projects that improve the community. People receive clothes in return for their community work. Gupta believes this helps the receivers build self-respect, because they have earned the clothes. It also helps the receivers to be proud of what they have done to help their community.Since it began, GOONJ has expanded its work. GOONJ also collects more than just clothes. It collects home or school supplies. GOONJ also started a program that helps protect women's health.【9】Suhklal's example is mentioned to show .A. Indians can get free clothes from GOONJB. there are many non-profit organizations in IndiaC. some Indians are too poor to support themselvesD. suhklal thinks highly of what GOONJ does for him【10】Why did Anshu Gupta and his wife set up GOONJ?A. To help those in need to eam their clothing with self-respect.B. To sell clothes they never need again.C. To collect more clothes from their community.D. To call on people to help those in a worse situation.【11】What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. GOONJ still has a long way to go before it's accepted in India.B. Women's health is becoming a serious problem.C. GOOJ has already involved(涉及)itself in many areas of social life.D. GOONJ only pays close attention to clothes.【12】What may be the best title of the text?A. A non-profit organizationB. Receive clothes and respect from GOONJC. Donate what we can't wear to GOONJD. Great people-Anshu Gupta and his wifeDChocolate is good for your heart, skin and brain. Usually, people think that chocolate is bad for their health. They describe chocolate as“something to die for"or say “death by chocolate". Now they should bite their tongues! Evidence(证据)is showing that some kinds of chocolate are actually good for you in the following ways: A happier heartScientists at Harvard University recently examined 136 studies on cocoa-the main ingredient in chocolate and found that it does seem to strengthen the heart. Studies have shown heart benefits from increased blood flow. These benefits are the result of cocoa's chemicals, which seem to prevent both cell damage and inflammation(炎症).Better blood pressureIf yours is high, chocolate may help. Jeffrey Blumberg from Tufts University recently found that people with high blood pressure who ate 3. 5 ounces of dark chocolate per day for two weeks saw their blood pressure drop quickly.Muscle magicChocolate milk may help you recover after a hard workout(锻炼). In a small study at Indiana University Bloomingto, people who drank chocolate milk between workouts did better on a tiredness test than those who had some sports drinks.Better for your skinGerman researchers gave 24 women a half-cup of special cocoa every day. After three months, the women's skin was moister(滑润的)and smoother. The research shows that chocolate helps protect and increase blood flow to the skin, improving its appearance.Brain gainsIt sounds almost too good to be true, but research suggests that chocolate may improve your memory, attention span, reaction time, and problem-solving by increasing the blood flow to the brain.【13】Which of the following is wrong?A. Cocoa's chemicals can prevent both cell damage and inflammation.B. Chocolate may help you lower your blood pressure.C. People early know chocolate is good for their health.D. Chocolate may improve your memory, attention span, reaction time, and problem-solving.【14】What's the meaning of the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph?A. Sports drinks are better than chocolate milk.B. Sports drinks can make people easy to be tired.C. Drinking milk can keep you energetic at work.D. We should drink chocolate milk between times when we work hard.【15】What's the main idea of the text?A. Chocolate, a Healthy FoodB. More Chocolate, Less HealthC. Chocolate and Blood PressureD. Advice on Eating Chocolate第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

After hearing these changes for some time,I said to her,“It isn't necessary to spend all your __21__ at once.”“I know,I know,”she answered with a little of __22__.A few days later,June called.“I've decided __23__ I want to use my inheritance,”she said.“Can you __24__?I want to see what you think.”This wasn't something I __25__ looked forward to,but we had been __26__ for a long time.

Commuters(通勤者)rush to and from their jobs in cars,buses,subways,trains,and even on bicycles. Large cities in the United States have two rush hours-one in the morning and one in the evening. But in cities in other parts of the world,there are four rush hours. In Athens and Rome,for example,many workers go home for lunch and a nap. After this midday break,they rush back to their jobs and work for a few more hours.In Tokyo,there's a big rush hour underground. Most of the people in Tokyo take the subways. The trains are very crowded. Subway employees called packers wear white gloves and help pack the commuters into the trains when the doors place. They make sure that all purses,briefcases,clothes,and hands are inside the trains.In Seoul,many commuters prefer to take taxis to get to work,To hail a cab,many people stand at crossroads and raise two fingers. This means they'll pay the cab driver double the usual fare. Some people even raise three fingers!They'll pay THREE times the normal rate.Streets in Rome are very crowded with automobiles and mopeds(摩托自行车)during rush hours. The city can't make its streets wider,and it can't build new highways,because it doesn't want to disturb many historic sites in the city,such as the Forum and the Colosseum. It took the city fifteen years to construct a new subway system. Construction had tostop every time workers found old artifacts and discovered places of interest to archaeologists(考古学家).In many big cities,there are special lanes on highways for carpools. These are groups of three or more people who driver to and from work together. They share the costs of gas and parking and take turns driving into the city.Getting to work and getting home can be difficult in many places around the world. Rush hour traffic seems to be a universal problem.36.Big cities have traffic problems during rush hours because there are ________.A.special lanes on highwaysB.many commutersC.four rush hoursD.many cars on the street37.Most of commuters in Tokyo ________.A.take subway trains to workB.are packersC.take taxis to workD.carry briefcases to work38.To“hail a cab”means to ________.A.pay double the normal rateB.try to get a cabC.prefer to take taxisD.to stand at crossroads39.Why did it take a long time to build a subway system in Rome?A.Because the streets were very crowded.B.Because there are many historic sites.C.Because the workers discovered many artifacts and places of interest.D.Because the traffic always stopped the construction.BBelieve it or not,optical illusion(错觉)can cut highway crashes. Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75% using a simple optical illusion. Bent stripes,called chevrons(人字形),painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are,and thus drivers slow down.Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C.is planning to repeat Japan's success. Starting next year,the Foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes.Excessive speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents,according to the Foundation. To help reduce those accidents,the Foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards(危险)are the greatest-curves,exit slopes,traffic circles,and bridges.Some studies suggest that straight,horizontal bars painted across roads can at first cut the average speed of drivers in half.However,traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bar.Chevron,scientists say,not only give drives the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.40.The passage mainly discusses ________.A.a new way of highway speed controlB.a new pattern for painting highwaysC.a new approach to training driversD.a new type of optical illusion41.On roads painted with chevrons,drivers tend to feel ________.A.they should avoid speed-related hazardsB.they are driving in the wrong laneC.they should slow down their speedD.they are approaching the speed limit42.The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to ________.A.try out the Japanese method in certain areasB.change the road signs across the countryC.replace straight,horizontal bars with chevronsD.repeat the Japanese road patterns43.The advantage of chevrons over straight,horizontal bars is that the former ________.A.can keep drivers awakeB.can cut road accidents in halfC.will have a longer effect on driversD.will look more attractiveCWildlife faces threats (威胁) from habitat destruction, pollution, and other human actions. Although protecting wildlife may seem too hard at times, even small actions in your own neighbourhood can help protect many different animals. Here are some tips on how to protect wildlife through small actions.1.Create wildlife friendly areas in your backyard.When trying to make your garden more beautiful, you can choose plants that can provide food and shelter to native wildlife. This will also help cut down on pollution. Add bird or bat houses to your yard or garden to attract and shelter these species.2.Avoid harming the natural ecosystem (生态系统) in your area.Some plants from other places can kill or harm native plants that provide food and shelter for wildlife.3.____________By using less water and fewer fuels, you will be helping to protect the wildlife around you. Take buses or the subway when you can,turn off electric devices when you're not using them, take shorter showers,and keep your room temperature at or below 6-8 degrees during the winter.4.Buy products that are wildlife friendly.Don't buy products that are made from endangered animals. Keep in mind that some endangered animals are killed by traps, catches or hunters who are after other wildlife within the same habitat.5.Donate money or time to organizations that protect wildlife and their habitats.You can give money to organizations or groups that protect wildlife species in your neighbourhood.44.We infer that the purpose of this passage is to ________.A.tell us why protecting wildlife is extremely important nowB.suggest that we protect wildlife through actionsC.explain why protecting wildlife is not as hard as people thinkD.give us some tips on how to protect wildlife through small actions 45.Which of the following threats to wildlife is NOT mentioned in the passage?A.Animal diseases. B.Loss of habitat.C.Pollution. D.Hunters.46.In which section of a newspaper would you most probably read this passage?A.Environment. B.Teaching.C.Business. D.Geography.DFourteen-year-old Richie Hawley had spent five years studying violin at the Community School of Performing Arts in Los Angeles when he took part in a violin contest. Ninety two young people were invited to the contest and Hawley came out first.The contest could have been the perfect setup for fear,worrying about mistakes,and trying to impress the judges. But Hawley says he did pretty well in staying calm.“I couldn't be thinking about how many mistakes I'd make-it would distract(干扰)me from playing,”he says.“I didn't even remember trying to impress people while I played. It's almost as if they weren't there. I just wanted to make music.”Hawley is a winner. But he didn't become a winner by concentrating on winning. He did it by concentrating on playing well.A characteristic of high performers is their intense,pleasurable concentration on work,rather than on their competitors or future glory or money,says Dr.Charles Garfield,who has studied 1,500 achievers inbusiness,science,sports,the arts,and professions.“They are interested in winning,but they're most interested in self-development,testing their limits.”One of the most surprising things about top performers is how many losses they've had and how much they've learned from each.“Not one of the 1,500 I studied defined losing as failing,”Garfield says.“They kept calling their losses ‘setbacks’.”A healthy attitude toward setbacks is essential to winning,experts agree.“The worst thing you can do if you've had a setback is to let yourself get stuck in a prolonged depression. You should analyze carefully what went wrong,identify specific things you did right and give yourself credit for them.”Garfield believes that most people don't give themselves enough praise. He even suggests keeping a diary of all the positive things you've done on the way to a goal.47.Hawley won the contest because ________.A.he put all his mind to his performanceB.he cared much about the judges' feelingsC.he worried about making mistakes.D.he paid close attention to the people around48.High performers is that they tend to concentrate on ________.A.glory B.wealthC.pleasure D.work49.The passage tells us that “praise”in times of trouble ________.A.helps people deal with their disappointmentB.makes people forget their setbacksC.makes people regret about their pastD.helps people realize their goals50.It can be learned from the passage that top performers are not ________.A.interested in winningB.free of lossesC.accustomed to failuresD.concerned about setbacksⅣ.书面表达(满分25分)假如你是新华中学的学生李华,刚参加完“美国高校一周游”的夏令营活动,在离开之前,你想给新结交的美国朋友Monica写一封感谢信,内容应包括以下要点:1.表示感谢;2.描述参加此次夏令营的收获。
