But you must go there yourself to feel its true size and beauty. The Grand Canyon is one of the greatest natural wonders of the world.The Colorado River formed the Grand Canyon over millions of years. Slowly, the river cut down through hard rock. At the same time, the land was rising. Today, the canyon is one and a half kilometers deep and 445 kilometers long. The oldest rocks at the bottom of the canyon are more than 1 billion years old. The width varies from about 200 meters to 29 kilometers across. The rim from or top of the canyon is about 2,300 meters above sea level on the South Rim, and about 3,000 meters on the other side, the North Rim. As a result, there are different kinds of plants and animals on opposite sides of the canyon. The South Rim is dry desert country. The North Rim has tall forests.The canyon looks different at different times a day, and in the different seasons and weather. At sunrise and sunset the red, gold, brown, and orange colours of the rocks are especially clear and bright. In winter, the canyon is partly covered with snow.The view from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon is the best. Most visitors come to the South Rim and stay in campgrounds or hotels. Every point along the canyon’s eage offers a different view.The North Rim of the Canyon is quieter. It takes all day to drive there from the South Rim because there is only one bridge across the Colordo River. On the way, you go through Navado Indian lands, and a colourful pink desert called ”the Painted Desert”.Y ou can walk down into the Grand Canyon, or you can go down on the back of a mule(小型电动汽车) . Y ou can also take a boat trip down the Colorado River, and camp on the beaches at night. But whether you see the Grand Canyon from thr top or the bottom, it will be an experience that you will never forget.21.The best way to feel the size and beauty of the Grand Canyon is___________________________.A.to see it photographsB.to listen to the report about itC.to travel there yourselvesD.to watch its TV programs22.What made the Grand Canyon?A.The earthquakeB.The water from the Colorado RiverC.The American proplrD.The strong wind23.The sea level on both sides of the Grand Canyon is __________________________.A.the sameB.changing with timeC.variousD.very low24.From the passage we can know that the _________ of the canyon is different atdifferent time.A. lengthB. sceneC. widthD. height。

I was used to the bilingual dictionaries, in which the word are Chinese. I really wondered why my aunt to make things so difficult for me. Now, after studying English at university for three years, I that As I found out, there , often no perfect equivalence(对应)between two in two languages. My aunt even goes so far as to that a Chinese “equivalent” can never give you theof a word in English! ,she insisted that I read the definition(定义)of a word in a monolingual wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning., I have come to see what she meant.Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way.

American cities are changing, just as American society is changing.After World War Ⅱ,the population of most large American ci ties decreased;however, the population in many Sun Belt cities increased. Los Angeles and Houston are cities where population shifts(转移)to and from the city reflect the changing values of American society. In the late 1940s and early1950s,city residents(居民)became wealthier. They had more children so they needed more space. They moved out of their apartments in the city to buy their own homes. They bought houses in the suburbs(郊区).Now things are changing. The children of the people who left the cities in the 1950s are now adults. Many, unlike their parents, want to live in the cities. They continue to move to Sun Belt cities and older ones of the Northeast and Midwest. Many young professionals are moving back into city. They prefer the city to the suburbs because their jobs are there; or they jus enjoy the excitement and possibilities that the city offers.This population shift is bringing problems as well as benefits. Countless poor people must leave their apartments in the city because the owners want to sell the buildings or make apartments for sale instead of for rent. In the 1950s, many poor people did not have enough money to move to the suburbs; now many of these same people do not have enough money to stay in the cities.Only a few years ago, people though that the older American cities were dying. Some city residents now see a bright, new future. Others see only problems and conflicts the thing is sure many dying cities are alive again.36. What does the author think of cities all over the world? A. They are alive. B. They are hopeless. C. They are similar. D. They are different.37.Why did American city residents want to live in the suburbs after World War Ⅱ?A. Because older American cities were dying.B. Because they were richer and needed more space.C. Because cities contained the wont pare of society.D. Because they could hardly afford a live in the city.38. According to the 4th paragraph, a great many poor people in American .A. are faced with housing problemsB. are forced to move to the suburbsC. want to sell their buildingsD. need more money for daily expenses39. We ear conclude from the text that A. American cities are changing far the worse B. people have different views on American citiesC. many people are now moving from American citiesD. the population is decreasing in older American cities 四.阅读表达Many people believe that Americans love their cars almost more than anything else. It may be true. From the time youngsters(小孩)become fourteen years old, they are likely to dream of having their own cars. Many young peoplework after school during their last year of high school in order to buy a car learning to drive and getting a driver‟s license may be one of the most exciting times of a young person‟s life.People who almost never go to a doctor when they are sick will take their cars to a repairman at the first sign of a problem. Those who do not like to work around the home on Saturdays may devote most of that day to washing and waxing(打蜡) their cars. For some families it is not enough to have one car. They often have two or three---one for work and one for recreation(娱乐)。

重庆市铜梁县2017-2018学年高二英语上学期寒假作业(二)第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AIt’ll soon be the birthday of one of my closest friends, Susie. I still cannot decide what to give her. She’s a rare friend because she has been there for me all the time whenever I need a friend to talk to. I can always depend on her to be the first to arrive to give me advice when I have problems. I guess I am so lucky to have her as a friend.It’s more than seven years since I first met Susie in our school. I joined the theater group and she was a director then. At first I thought she was intimidating (令人生畏的) but in the end I realized that she needed to keep a strict image in order for her actors and actresses to take her seriously. And then during practice I got a chance to know her better. In fact, she was a friendly and warmhearted person. Soon we become good friends.I don’t know exactly what to give my friend on her birthday as I believe she has everything. So it’s really hard to buy her a gift she will like. This year I want something different and special but I don’t know what to give. One day I searched the Internet without any purpose and to my surprise there is a really lovely site where you can buy all kinds of gifts.I scanned(浏览) some of their items and I found cool and exciting gifts. I chosea special personalized bracelet(手镯). I’m sure that this will look perfect on her.I put our names as part of the design of the bracelet so that it’ll remind us that we’ll forever be friends. I can’t wait to give her my gift but I won’t tell her yet. I don’t want to destroy the surprise.21. Why does the author consider Susie as a rare friend?A. Susie is good at solving problemsB. She and the author have lots of things to talk aboutC. Susie is a friendly and warmhearted personD. She can always offer help when the author is in need22. Finally the author found a nice gift for her friend.A. with the help of somebody elseB. while going onlineC. while doing shopping in a storeD. without difficulty23. The author wanted to put her and her friend’s names in the bracelet in order to.A. give her friend a big surpriseB. make the present more specialC. remind her friend of their difference between themD. make her friend remember their friendship foreverBCar companies are developing vehicles that will plug into electric sockets, just like many laptops, digital cameras, cell phones and Mp4 do. Called “plug﹣in vehicles”, these cars will get most of their power from electricity. Their drivers won’t have to stop at gas stations as often as usual.The technology is more than just cool. In our car﹣filled world, plug﹣in vehicles could reduce the amount of gas we use, which keeps rising in cost now and then. Besides, driving around in these vehicles may even help the environment. Gas ﹣burning cars produce a lot of greenhouse gas, which causes global warming.The first company﹣produced plug﹣in vehicles could hit the roads by 2020. But engineers still have a lot of work to do to make the technology practical and inexpensive.Batteries are the biggest challenge. In the plug﹣in﹣vehicle world, Li﹣ion (锂离子) batteries are getting the most attention. These batteries can store a large amount of energy in a small package, and they last a longer time between charges. Li﹣ion batteries can fit laptops, cell phones, heart instruments and other similar pocket ones.But because cars are so big and heavy, it would still require a suitcase﹣sized Li﹣ion batteries to power about 12km of driving. What’s more, the batteries are much expensive.“A car filled with batteries could go a long distance,”says Ted Bohn, an electrical engineer in Chicago. “But it couldn’t pull any people, and it would cost $100,000.” So researchers need to work out how to make batteries smaller and cheaper, among other questions.“The answers don’t exist yet”Bohn says, “As a kid, I thought someone someplace knows the answer to everything. All of these questions haven’t been decided. That’s what engineering is about﹣making a guess, running tests and getting fine results.”24. According to the passage, the main problem of the new car is.A. the developingB. the speedC. the appearanceD. the batteries25. Which is true according to the passage?A. The “plug﹣in vehicles”will use electricity completely as driving powerB. The new technology will help protect our environmentC. The technology of using electricity as driving is quite practical nowD. The biggest challenge of the new technology is that it will cost us more energy26. How does Bohn feel about the future of the technology according to the last paragraph?A. ConfidentB. PuzzledC. WorriedD. Disappointed27. According to the passage, the new technology is facing the problems except that.A. the new technology cannot come into use at presentB. the cost of the new technology is quite highC. the government won't support the technologyD. the size of the batteries is too big at presentCWhen I was a boy, I was always happy to see those little brown coins. After years I was still very happy to pick up pennies on the ground.I usually saved them up. I usually bought a pack of gum or a bag of chips when it was enough. After growing up, I heard a story about coins. It was said that our loved people sometimes would leave pennies on the ground in front of us. People wanted to show us that we were loved and watched over kindly. I never doubted that story even as an adult. It is difficult for me to find a lot of money on the ground, but pennies are there all the time. Maybe that is why I still enjoy seeing them and picking them up, no matter how dirty or old they are.A few months ago, I was walking to the local post office to mail a letter. As I entered the room, I saw not one, not two, but four pennies shining in the sunlight.I smiled and picked them up. I kept them in my hands as I walked in the post office. “Four is Ok,”an office said to a lady. Th e lady began searching her purse. Her face went red. I understood what had happened. I laughed to myself at this surprising moment. I placed my pennies on the desk before her. The smile I got in return was worth a thousand dollars.The coins weren’t so va luable to me, but they did matter to her. I just performeda little kindness. I was happy.28. What might the author probably buy when he saved enough pennies?A. A set of storybooksB. A bag of sugarC. A box of chocolatesD. A pack of chips29. When grown up, the authorA. saw some careless women lost coinsB. still believed the story about coinsC. thought rich people threw coins on purposeD. found old people forget coins on the ground30. What can we learn from this passage?A. Doing small acts of kindness is goodB. Every coin should be used to buy important thingsC. We should look for coins when we are walkingD.Pay more attention to what you hear from now onDA new book written by a Chinese American on her super﹣strict parenting- “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother” has raised fierce debates in the US.Amy Chua is a YaleLawSchool professor and the mother of two teenage girls. She is the daughter of Chinese immigrants. In the Chinese culture, the tighter represents strength and power. In her book, Ms. Chua writes about how she demanded excellence from her daughters. Chua writes that her daughters, Sophia and Louisa, were never allowed to go on a date, be in a school play, watch TV or play computer games. They couldn’t choose their own after﹣class activities or get any grade less than an A. They had to play piano or violin﹣and no other musical instruments.She writes that if a Chinese child gets a B﹣which she says “would never happen”﹣there would be “a screaming, hair﹣tearing explosion.” She describes ma king her 7﹣year﹣old daughter play a piano piece perfectly﹣yelling and not letting her leave the bench even to use the bathroom﹣until it was.Many people have criticized Amy Chua. Some say her parenting methods were abusive. She even admits that her husband, who is not Chinese, objected to her parenting style. But she says that was the way her parents raised her and her three sisters.Stacy Debroff, who has written four books on parenting, says Amy Chua’s parenting style is not limited to Chinese families. She says it represents a traditional way of parenting among immigrants seeking a better future for their children. But she also sees a risk. When children have no time to be social or to follow their own interests, they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life. Stacy Debroff advises parents not to just repeat the way they were raised.Alison Lo, an assistant professor of marketing at the University of Washington’s Bothell campus, said. “I don’t think Amy is advocating a best practice of parenting style, or that success and achievements are critical yardsticks of a good life. But I can imagine how strong her daughters’ college applications are going to be. For many parents whose dreams are seeing their kids graduating from a competitive university, Amy is sharing with the readers that it is achievable by persistent, dedicated parental guidance, ” Lo said. “In that sense,a young adult’s giftedness can be born, or made.”31. We can learn that Amy Chua isA. an assistant professorB. an easy﹣going womanC. A cruel teacherD. A demanding mother32. What are Sophia and Louisa allowed to do?A. Getting an A minusB. Playing the guitarC. Dating with boysD. Playing the piano33. What do you know about Amy C hua’s husband?A. He came from ChinaB. He is against her parenting styleC. He approved of her parenting styleD. He thinks her parenting methods are abusive34. Stacy Debroff advises parents to.A. follow Amy Chua’s parenting styleB. develop their own style of parentingC. be strict with childrenD. seek a better future for their children35. Alison Lo concludes that.A. a teenager can be raised to be a talentB. a gifted child was born with talentC. Persistent, dedicated parental guidance is the best parenting styleD. parents should respect children's personalities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。

They took me to the school and 38 me around the campus.On our way to my dorm, we saw a huge truck delivering a student’s 39 to her room. Many students at the school were very rich, and they would fill their dorms with decorations. But I was 40 not to because I thought it was a 41 of time and money.I had a single room, which was about the 42 of a Chinese college dorm --- the ones which usually hold six people.43 she helped carry my bags, Lily asked me, “What’s your favorite 44 ,Teresa?”I thought for a moment before answering, “Orange.”I didn’t know why she had asked the question.We 45 an introduction meeting after dinner. 46 of the students were native English speakers, so I felt a little 47 .I returned to my room after the 48 , tired and wanted to go to bed after a (n) 49 day.

There is no hard and fast rule, for no two are alike, and it would be wrong to set a time when all should start being taught the intricacies(复杂)of reading letters to formwords.If a three-year-old wants to read(or even a two-year-old for that matter), the child has the right to be given every encouragement. The fact that he or she might later be “bored” when joining a class of non-readers at child school is the teacher’s a ffair. It is up to the teacher to see that such a child is given more advanced reading material.Similarly, the child who still cannot read by the time he goes to junior school at the age of seven should be given every help by teachers and parents alike. They should make certain that he is not dyslexic(having difficulty in reading).Although parents should be careful not to force youngsters aged two to five to learn to read (if badly done it could put them off reading for life ), there is no harm in preparing them for simple recognition of letters by labeling various items in their rooms. For instance, tie a nice piece of cardboard to their bed with BED written in neat, big letters.Should the young child ask his parents to teach him to read, and if the parents are capable of doing so, such an attraction should not be ignored. But the task should never be made to look like a hard job and the child should never be forced to continue, or his interest should start to flag.61. This passage is mainly about ____.A. what qualities people teaching children reading should haveB. different age groupings of children to be taught readingC. when and how children should be taught readingD. various problems of children who start learning to read62. In the writer’s opinion, children start learning to read ____.A. early and fastB. at different timesC. by a certain ruleD. from word games63. A three-year-old child who wants to read should ____.A. be encouragedB. go to an infant schoolC. start from fun storiesD. join a class of non-readers64. The purpose of labeling items in the room is to ____.A. make it more colorfulB. teach children to write neatlyC. help children recognize simple lettersD. force children to develop the habit of reading65.

Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air,water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air,water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.If you look carefully at the plants around you,you will find that there are two kinds of plants:flowering plants and non-flowering plants. Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed,some have two,three or four,and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit. Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores(胚芽). Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places,they usually grow into new plants.58. The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______.A. plants are important for lifeB. plants cannot grow without airC. there are many plants in the worldD. we can not live without water59.

What is the meaning of the underlined word?A. Kept.B. Guarded.C. Prevented.D. Surrounded61. This passage may be taken from______.A. a medicine bookB. a novelC. a science magazineD. an experiment report25. “L ife is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.”This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unknown citizen who lived in Rome in 52 wrote it.We all love new inventions. They are exciting , amazing and can even change our lives.But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives?Picture this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes empty and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done. How calm and happy do you feel?Inventions have speeded up(加速)our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed(压力) and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, not even electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps because they lead simpler lives.A family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons Benjamin, 10, and Thomas,7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phones.The grandmother, Lyn, said, “It was hard physically, but not mentally.” She believed life was less materialistic. “The more things you have , the more difficult life becomes.” She said. The boys said they found less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a trendy, beer-drinking granny, to one who cooked things.Here are some simple ways to beat the stress often caused by our inventions!Don’t be available all the time. Turn off your mobile phone at certain times of the day. Don’t check your e-mail every day.Don’t reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because you can. It may be fun at first, but it soon gets boring.62. The passage is mainly about_______.A. problems with technologyB. improvements of our life with technologyC. the important roles technology plays in our everyday lifeD. major changes which will be likely to happen to technology63. The writer quoted( 引用) what a citizen in ancient Rome said at the beginning of the story in order to _______.A. share a truth about lifeB. tell us what life was like long time agoC. make us wonder what causes such a thing to happenD. point out that you experience some big problems and they may be the same64. The family chose to spend some time in a 1940’s house because ______.A. they liked to live simple livesB. they were curious about how people lived without modern inventionsC. they were troubled by modern inventionsD. living in a different time would be a lot of fun for them65. What do you think the underlined word “available” in the first suggestion means?A. Busy on lineB. FreeC. Able to be usedD. Able to be found by others四、新的题型(共小题,每小题分)26. 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。

Not paying attention to our food makes us tend to more snacking later.Over a series of experiments were carried out by researchers. For the first experiment,39 normal-weight young women were randomly assigned to one of three experimental conditions: a high-distraction group, a low-distraction group, and a no-distraction group. Each person was given the same 400-calorie lunch consisting of several food items presented in a fixed order, and instructed to eat all of the items.In the high-distraction group, the women were told to play a computer game while eating, and that they would win money if they did well. In the low-distraction group they were just told to play the game while eating; and in the third group they were just told to eat their lunch. Later in the afternoon, each participant had access to a variety of biscuits on a plate, and the amount each person ate was assessed by weighing the plate before andafterwards.There was a significant difference between the groups. Those in the high-distraction condition ate 69 per cent more snacks than the no-distraction group, and those in the low-distraction group eating 28 per cent more (than those in the no-distraction group) .A second experiment, involving a further 63 people, was similar, but involved watching TV (in the distraction condition) and eating soup and bread. This found that those who watched TV while eating their lunch ate 19 per cent more biscuits later on than those who had eaten their meal without any distractions.A third experiment was also carried out, in which 45 normal-weight people were allocated to three groups. The first listened to an audio clip instructing them to imagine they were watching themselves eat—making them extremely focused on their own food intake. The second listened to a clip instructing them to imagine they were watching a celebrity—specifically David Beckham—eat (making them still focused on the food, but to a lesser degree);the third, which was the control group, just ate their lunch in silence. When all participants were given access to biscuits later, those in the self-imagining group-i.e. those who had really paid attention to what they were eating—ate far fewer than the other groups.4.Why does eating dinner with a TV or a smartphone make us fat?A. Because we're more likely to snack later on.B. Because we're paying more attention to our eating.C. Because food is becoming more delicious while we're playing.D. Because we need more calories while playing.5.What is TRUE about the three experiments?A. The low-distraction group ate the most snacks in the first experiment.B. Non-distracted members ate more biscuits later in the second experiment.C. Participants extremely focusing on eating ate far fewer in the third experiment.D. Each person was told to watch TV or play a game.6.What would be the best title for the text?A. Eating attentively doesn't help control appetite.B. Attentive eating increases later snack intake.C. Focusing on food increases later snack intake.D. Distraction leads to more snacking later.第二节完形填空A small boy at summer camp received a large package of cookies (饼干(bǐnggān)) in the mail from his mother.

Water is important. We, as well as animal, cannot livewithout water and neither agriculture or industry can go without it. Yet it seemed that water is becoming less and less. Many countries in the world find we don’t have enough water. To deal with a problem, I think, we should first go all out to plant trees though trees will help save water. Next, not drinking water should be left running. Third, we should find ways to reuse the water using in washing, especially bath water for which is quite a lot, and thatwill save much water.Sincerely,Li Hua七选五No fight can end, and no friendship can move on, until everyone says these little words. I’m sorry Sometimes, though, they can be difficult to say. 1It is not about winning.Friendships aren’t like the Super Bowl, and there should never be a winne r and a loser. When you start fighting with a friend, it may feel important that you “win” the fight by proving you’re right and he is wrong, or by makinghim be the first to apologize.In reality, you’ll both lose if you let your fight ruin your friendship, and you’ll both win if you find a way to heal it.2You may have heard the expression “His pride stood in the way”. It is usually used to describe a person who is so determined to be “right” that he lets an opportunity for happiness pass him by for ever.3 Remember: as time goes on, we usually forget who was right and who was wrong in a disagreement, and only remember the sadness of losing a friend.Take the first step.Are you sick of fighting? Do you think this fight is just not important enough to ruin your friendship? 4 you don’t have to take full responsibility for starting the fight, or even say that your feelings were wrong. But you should find something you did or said that’s worth apologizing for. Maybe you’re sorry that you let the fight go for so long, or that you overreacted to something your friend did. If you say you’re sorry, it’s like an invitation for your friend to do the same. 5A. Then try to be the first to apologize.B. Stop thinking about your pride.C. It’s about taking some responsibility for the argument.D. Don’t let this happen to a friendship you care about.E. Here are some things to keep in mind.F. There are some special cases when you shouldn’t be the one to apologize first.G. Once you’ve both said it, you’ll both feel a million times better.短文改错This afternoon I was having a PE lesson while I fell down and hurt my foot. I was in greatly pain at that moment, but I tried to act as if nothing has happened until the class was over. Though I had difficulty walk back to my classroom, I still didn’t tell anyone but even refused the offer of help of my classmates. As result, the hurt in my foot became bad. Now I know I am wrong. We can tell others our need for help and accept his help. Some day we can help others in return for. In this way, we can get along to each other happily and peacefully.Strike while the iron is hot 趁热打铁寒假作业2ABCDE1.tell you∧my opinion2. as well as animal→animals3. neither agriculture or→nor4. seemed→seems5.we→they don’t have enough water6.

第二天一.美文晨读Just do itEach spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches along the highway I travel daily to work.There is one particular blue flower that has always caught my eye. I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours, the afternoon sun is too warm for it. Every day for approximately two weeks, I see those beautiful flowers.This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the kitchen window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Every day I drove past the flowers thinking, "I'll stop on my way home and dig them." "Gee, I don't want to get my good clothes dirty..." Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband even gave me a folding shovel one year for my trunk to be used for that expressed purpose.One day on my way home from work, I was saddened to see that the highway department had mowed the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, "Way to go, you waited too long. You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring."A week ago we were shocked and saddened to learn that my oldest sister-in-law has a terminal brain tumor. She is 20 years older than my husband and unfortunately, because of age and distance, we haven't been as close as we all would have liked.I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us.And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, you can bet I'll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.二.词汇训练1.

My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted to contact the AA Company. Low grey clouds were gatheringacross the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea which nearly threw me off my feet every time I crossed one of the side streets. It had rained in the night and water was dropping from the bare trees that lined the street. I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat.There was no sign of a call box, nor was there anyone at that early hour whomI could ask. I had thought I might find a shop open selling the Sunday papers ora milkman doing his rounds, but the town was completely dead. The only living thing I saw was a thin frightened cat outside a small restaurant.Then suddenly I found what I was looking for. There was a small post office, and almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street. Next to it was the town’s only public call box, which badly needed a coat of paint. I hurried forward, but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside. He was fat, and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat. I could not see his face and he didn’t raise his head at the sound of my footsteps.Carefully, I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait for my turn. It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the call box door.6. At what time was the story set?A. An early summer morning.B. A cold winter afternoon.C. An early winter morning.D. A windy summer afternoon.7. Which of the following words best describe the writer’s impression of the town?A. Cold and frightening.B.

LifeA IMAGINE that your parents have bought you the most advanced robot. He looks like a real person. He talks to you and plays with you. He can even think for himself and figure out what you need.It may feel as if you have a considerate new brother who keeps you company all the time. But come to think of it, can you really trust him? Ever since the first robot was created decades ago, scientists have kept thinking about the task of making robots more like humans. However, as they have gotten closer to that goal, doubts have grown. According to the BBC, Japanese robot designer Masahiro Mori argues that the more lifelike robots become, the more humans feel a connection to them. But once they become too similar to humans, people begin to feel uncomfortable.This theory is what led to the creation of a brand new robot in Switzerland earlier this month. Roboy, as the new machine is called, has various human-like abilities such as hand-shaking and bicycle-riding, but instead of a skin-like covering, Roboy is wrapped in shiny white armor (盔甲) that clearly shows its robot status.“As long as people can clearly see that the robot is a machine, even if they project their feelings into it, then they feel comfortable,” Rolf Pfeifer, the creator of Roboy from the University of Zurich,Switzerland, told the BBC.But the problem that people have with robots is not just with the way they look. It also has to do with the roles that they play in our lives.A survey last year of European Union countries showed that 88 percent of those interviewed agreed that robots are “nec essary as they can do jobs that are too hard or dangerous for people”, such as space exploration and war fighting. But when it comes to taking care of children, 60 percent said that robots should not be allowed to participate, because as robots become more advanced and complicated, parents may tend to hand over too much responsibility to them.No matter what, robots will soon enter our homes, Pfeifer said. What is not yet clear is whether they will act more like servants who work for us or companions who live with us.36. What is the purpose of the text?A. To introduce the newly-invented robot, Roboy.B. To discuss problems related to designing robots.C. To explore the roles robots will play in our future lives.D. To argue what kinds of robots appeal to people more.37. Why did Pfeifer make Roboy look like a robot?A. To better protect it.B. To make it look cool and modern.C. To make it clearly different from ahuman.D. To keep its price down.38. According to the paragraph before the last one, most of the people interviewed __________.A. welcome robots into their homesB. believe robots are useful for certain dangerous tasksC. think families with children shouldn’t use robots for houseworkD. are afraid that children will become less responsible if robots take care ofthem39. Which best describes the author’s tone in the article?A. Objective(客观的).B. Critical(批评的).C. Admiring.D. Anxious.40. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. The brand new robot in Switzerland can do everything human beings can.B. Scientists have long been dreaming of creating human-like robots.C. Robots in the future will serve as human beings’ good friends.D. People won’t be comfortable with robots like a machine in the ho use.BAmerica is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while —then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily. Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include uswarmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home.41. In which part of a newspaper can this article be found?A. Culture.B. News.C. Story.D. Travel.42. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.43. The underlined words “flower”(in Line 5) probably means___________.A. weakenB. developC. stretchD. disappear44. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive inAmerica to visitan American friend, we will probably be___________.A. treated hospitably at his homeB. offered a ride to his homeC. warmly welcomed at the airportD. treated to dinner in a restaurant45. The writer mainly talks about ___________ in the text.A. friendships between ChineseB. Americans’ hospitalityC. different views of friendshipD. friendships between AmericansCThe dirty, homeless man sat on the pavement, staring at the stones. He thought back more than twenty years to when he was a boy living in a small red brick house on this very street. He recalled the flower garden, the swing his dad made, and the bike he had saved up for months to buy.The man shrugged impatiently, for the brightness of those pictures hurt him, and his memory traveled on another ten years. He had a job by then, plenty of friends and started to come home less. He did not really wantto remember those years, nor the day when, because of debts, he had gone home planning to ask for money. He felt embarrassed, but he knew exactly where his dad kept the money. When his parents stepped out of the room, he took what he wanted and left.That was the last time he had seen them. Ashamed, he went abroad, and his parents knew nothing about the years of wandering or time in prison. But locked in his cell he often thought of home. Once free, he would love to see his parents again, if they were still alive, and still wanted to see him.When his prison time was up, he found a job, but couldn’t settle. Something was drawing him home. He did not want to arrive penniless, so he hitchhiked most of the long journey back. But less than a mile from his destination he started to feel sick with doubt. Could they ever accept this man who had so bitterly disappointed them?He spent most of that day sitting under a tree. That evening he posted a letter which, although short, had taken him hours to write. It ended with:I know it is unreasonable of me to suppose you want to see me ... so it’s up to you. I’ll come early Thursday morning. If you wan t me home, hang a white handkerchief in the window of my old bedroom. If it’s there, I’ll come in; if not, I’ll wave good-bye and go.And now it was Thursday morning and he was sitting on the pavement at the end of the street. Finally he got up and walked slowly toward the old house. He drew a long breath and looked.His parents were taking no risks.________________________________________The man threw his head back, gave a cry of relief and ran straight through the open front door.46. Why did the man shrug impatiently (paragraph 2) while he was thinkingof his childhood?A. The thoughts made him angry.B. He felt he had wasted time.C. He was anxious to go home.D. The sweet memory caused him much pain.47. Why did it take him hours to write the letter?A. He doubted if his parents still lived in that house.B. He had much news to tell his parents.C. He felt ashamed to ask for forgiveness.D. He was longing to return home and felt excited.48. In what order did the following events take place?a. He took the money from his parents.b. He bought a bicycle with his savings.c. He was sentenced to prison.d. He wrote the letter home.e. He sat on the pavement.f. He hitchhiked back home.A. b, a, c, d, e, fB. b, a, c, f, d, eC. a, c, b, d, f, aD. a, d, b, c, e, f49. Which of the following best fits into paragraph 8?A. Every inch of the house was covered in white. Sheets, pillowcasesand table clothes had been placed on every window and door, making it look like a snow house.B. The house before him was just as he remembered: the red bricks,the brown door and nothing else.C. A colorful blanket was over the front door. On it, in large letters,was written, “Welcome home, son”.D. A police car was parked in the drive way, and two officers stood at the front door.50. The best title of the passage is _______.A. Sweet MemoryB. White HandkerchiefC. Abandoned SonD. Leaving HomeD20.Planning your holiday? Whether you’re going to Yunnan or UK, it’s important to make sure you’re well-prepared. Here’s a handy checklist to help you.LocationThe first thing you have to decide is where you want to go. Of course a lot will depend on your time and budget. Do you want to relax on a beach, visit some famous landmarks, or hike through some beautiful scenery? All these things are available in China, but if your budget stretches, why not look at somewhere else in Asia, or even farther.PackingThere can be such a thing as being over prepared when traveling, but you don’t want to forget something important. It can be a good idea to wear pants with zipped pockets. In certain countries local thieves will target unsuspecting tourists for their money. It can also be worth packing some basic medical supplies. If you are going to be moving around a lot, buy a good backpack. Finally, remember to pack clothes that are going to be suitable for the weather.AccommodationThere are several things to consider when picking where you want to stay. Location is often the most important. When staying in hotels, it is often a good idea to book your first night in a new city. After all, you will not be familiar with the surroundings and will want somewhere to leave your luggage. However, don’t spend more than a cou ple of days at the same hotel. When you get to a new place, you might soon discover there’s somewhere better to stay.Don’t forgetThe key to a good holiday is detail. When you’re traveling, especially in a foreign country, don’t forget to change some mone y before you leave. If you’re traveling somewhere tropical, you might need some injections or pills to avoid disease. And it’s always worth taking out travel insurance, just in case you find yourself in a spot of bother during the trip. Don’t forget to che ck the exchange rates. The strong yuan has made traveling abroad cheaper recently. It can also be a good idea to write down the phone number of the closest Chinese embassy, in case you need help while abroad.51. You have to take all the following into consideration EXCEPT _______when deciding where to spend your holiday.A. cultureB. purposeC. moneyD. time52. Pants with zipped pockets are recommended mainly because _______.A. it’s a good measure in case of emergenciesB. you’ll be expected to buy a lot of souvenirsC. you’ll carry many small things with youD. it will help you guard against local theft53. As for accommodation, the writer’s tip is _______.A. to stay away from the downtown areas to get cheap placesB. to book one or two nights in the same hotel in case you don’t like itC. to choose your location after you arrive at your destinationD. better not to leave your luggage in unfamiliar hotels54. It can be inferred from the last part that we should _______.A. choose the most suitable kind of travel insuranceB. use RMB in all foreign countries since the yuan is strongC. check the exchange rates so as to decide what currency (货币) to buyD. get in touch with Chinese embassy if we need help when abroad55. What’s the purpose of the passage?A. To attract the tourists to travel abroad.B. To tell some travel information to tourists.C. To help the tourists make good preparations for their holidays.D. To remind tourists of the safety during their journey.When Lynn Harrell was 20, he became the principal cellist(首席大提琴手) of the Cleveland Orchestra, and he suffered extreme stage fright (怯场). “There were times when I got so nervous I was sure that audience could hear my heart beating. It was just total panic.”Today, music schools are paying attention to the problem of anxiety in classes that deal with performance techniques and career preparation. There are a variety of skills that musicians can learn to fight stage fright and its symptoms: icy fingers, shaky hands, racing heart, and blank mind.“Take two deep breaths, open up your shoulders, then smile,” saysdoctor Diane Nichols, who suggests some ways of dealing with anxiety for the moments before performance. “Then choose three friendly faces in the audience, people you would communicate with and make music to, and make eye contact(接触) with them.” She doesn’t want performers to think of the audience as a judge.Extreme demands by teachers or parents are often at the root of stage fright, says Dorothy DeLay, a well-known violin teacher. She tells other teachers to demand only what their students are able to achieve.It is not only young artists who suffer, of course. The well-known pianist Cladimir Horowitz’s stage fright was famous. The great singer Draco Corelli is another examp le. “They had to push him on stage,” singer Renata Scotto said.Actually, success can make things worse. “In the beginning of your career, when you’re scared to death, nobody knows who you are, and they don’t have any expectations,” famous singer June Ande rson said. “There’s less to lose. Later on, when ________, people are coming to see you, and they have certain expectations. You have a lot to lose.”56. How did Lynn Harrell feel when performing according to Paragraph 1?

Already there have been more than enough teachers, engineers, physicists, aerospace experts, and other specialists. Yet colleges and graduate schools continue every year to turn out highly trained people to compete for jobs that aren't there. The result is that graduates cannot enter the professions for which they were trained and must take temporary jobs which do not require a college degree.On the other hand, there is a great need for skilled workers of all sorts: carpenters, electricians, mechanics, plumbers, TV repairmen. These people have more work than they can deal with, and their annual incomes are often higher than those of college graduates. The old gap that white-collar workers make a better living than blue-collar workers no longer holds true. The law of supply and demand now favors the skilled workmen.The reason for this situation is the traditional myth that college degree is a passport to a prosperous future. A large part of American society matches success in life equally with a college degree. Parents begin indoctrinating (灌输) their children with this myth before they are out of grade school. High school teachers play their part by acting as if high school education were a preparation for college rather than for life. Under this pressure the kids fall in line. Whether they wantto go to college or not doesn't matter. Everybody should go to college, so of course they must go. And every year college enrollments (入学) go up and up, and more and more graduates are overeducated for the kinds of jobs available to them.One result of this emphasis on a college education is that many people go to college who do not belong there. Of the sixty percent of high school graduates who enter college, half of them do not graduate with their class. Many of them drop out within the first year. Some struggle on for two or three years and then give up.1.It's implied but not stated in the passage that ________ .A.many other countries are facing the same problemB.white-collar workers in the US used to make more money than blue-collar workersC.fewer students will prefer to go to college in the futureD.the law of supply and demand has a strong effect on American higher education2.Which of the following is NOT a reason why college enrollments go up every year?A.Many people believe that the only way to success is a college education.B.Many parents want their children to go to college.C.High school teachers urge their students to go to college.D.Every young man and woman wants to go to college. 3.By saying that“many people go to college who do not belong there”, the author means that ________ .A.many people who are not fit for college education go to collegeB.many people who do not have enough money go to collegeC.many people who go to college drop out within the first yearD.many people who go to college have their hopes destroyed4.We can infer from the passage that the author believes that _______ .A.every young man and woman should go to collegeB.college education is a bad thingC.people with a college education should receive higher payD.fewer people should go to college while more should be trained for skilled jobs完形填空8、阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

高二英语寒假作业制卷人:歐陽文化、歐陽理複;制卷時間:二O二二年二月七日AA new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exames than those who use laptops(笔记本电脑).Students are increasingly using laptops for note-taking because of speed and legibility(明晰度).But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught.Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptops increased the tendency to make notes “mindlessly〞 by taking down word for word what the professors said.In the first experiment, students were give either a laptop or pen and paper. They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual note-taking skills. Thirty minutes after the talk, they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts.The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand. However, the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts. Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts.The reseachers’ report said , “While more notes are beneficial, if the notesare taken mindlessly, as is more likely the case on a laptop, the benefit disapears.’’In another experiment aimed at testing long- term memory, students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture. This time the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exame.These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding, but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.21. Most and more students favor laptops for note-taking because they can______.A. write more notesB. digest concepts betterC. get higher scoresD. understand lectures better22. While taking notes, laptop users tend to be__________.A. skillfulB. mindlessC. thoughtfulD. tireless23. The author of the passage aims to_________.A. examine the importance of long-term memoryB. stress the bebfit of taking notes by handC. explain the process of taking notesD. promote the use of laptops24. The passage is likely to appear in ________.A. a newspaper advertisementB. a computer textpaperC. a science magzineD. a finance reportB(Q= Question; A= Answer)Situation ⅠQ: If someone sits right next to me in an empty movie theater, is it rude to move? A: Maybe, but nobody will fault you for it. Chances are that the close sitter doesn’t realize he disturbs you, so he may miss your annoyance. You undoubtedly aren’t the first person he’s met who needs enough room. Forgive his bad judgment, move quietly and enjoy the show.SituationⅡQ: If I use the bathroom at a store, do I need to buy something?A: Consider frequency and urgency. Is this a one-time thing or an emergency? If so, you don’t have to buy anything, but it would be kind if you did. However, if you regularly use the bathroom at this place, then you are a customer, and you should act like one.SituationⅢQ: If someone is talking loudly on the bus, is there a nice way to ask him to keep it down?A: NO. Try other means: 1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down.2) Lift your finger in a silence motion(动作) and smile. 3) Put on earphones andignore him.SituationⅣQ: If I remember my friend’s birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a happy birthday like nothing happened.A: This is the reason why the word belated was invented. “Happy belated birthday!〞is short for, “Well, I know I forgot, but then I remembered. Forgive me and happy birthday.〞SituationⅤQ: Can I lie about seeing a text because I was too busy or lazy to respond (回复)to it?A: Don’t lie. Receiving a text does not mean you need to respond to it. Why waste a perfectly good lie when the truth will serve? “ Yes,〞 you can say if ever asked, “ I saw it.〞No explanation is needed as to why you don’t respond.25. You will get annoyed in a theater when____.A. a person is too activeB. a person is too rude to youC. a person talks too loudlyD. a person sits too close to you26. How will you quiet someone down in a public place?A. By making fun of him continuously.B. By looking purposefully at him.C. By talking to him directly.D. By pointing angrily at him.27. The underlined word “belated〞in Situation Ⅳ probably means___.A. predictedB. returnedC. cancelledD. delayed28. What is the passage mainly about?A. Modern ways to mind your manners.B. Different ways to change other’s mannersC. Proper manners to offer help to othersD. Good manners to talk to people.CWould it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co-operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it〞.Nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi(真菌) networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receivejust the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons(神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.Simard talk s about “mother trees〞, usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “mother trees〞 with no awareness of these highly complex “tree societies〞 or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.“ We didn’t take any notice of it,〞Simard says sadly, “ Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance.〞 If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.29. The underlined sente nce “the opposite is true〞 in Paragraph 2 probably meansthat trees__________.A. compete for survivalB. protect their own wealthC. depend on each otherD. provide support for dying trees30. “Mother tress〞 are extremely important because they________.A. look the largest in size in the forestB. pass on nutrition to young treesC. seem more likely to be cut down by humansD. know more about the complex “tree societies〞31. The underlined word “it〞 in the last paragraph refers to _______A. how “tr ee societies〞 workB. how trees grow oldC. how forestry industry developsD. how young trees survive32. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Old Trees Communicate Like HumansB. Young Trees Are In Need of ProtectionC. Trees Are More Awesome Than You ThinkD. Trees Contribute To Our SocietyDTravis is the manager of G&G where he is responsible for forty employees(雇员) and profits(利润) of over $2 million per year. He’s never late to work. He does not get upset on the job. When one of his employees started crying after a customer screamed at her, Travis took her away. “Your working uniform is your shelter,〞he told her. “Nothing anyone says will ever hurt you. You will always be as strongas you want to be.〞Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training courses, an education program that began on his first day and continues throughout an employee’s occupation. The training has, Travis says, changed his life. G&G has taught him how to live, how to focus, how to get to work on time, and how to master his emotions(情绪). Most importantly, it taught him willpower.At the center of that education is an extreme focus on an all-important habit: willpower. Dozens of cases show that willpower is the single most important habit for a person’s success.And the best way to strengthen willpower is to make it into a habit. “Sometimes it looks like people with great self-control aren’t working hard-----but that’s because they’ve made it automatic,〞 Angela Duckworth, one of the University of Pennsylvania re searchers said, “Their willpower occurs without them having to think about it.〞The company spent millions of dollars developing programs of study to train employees on self-control. Managers wrote workbooks that serve as guides to how to make willpower a habit in workers’ lives. Those courses are, in part, why G&G has grown from a sleepy company into a large one with more than seventeen thousand stores and profits of more than $10 billion a year.33. We learn from Paragraph 2 that employees in G&G must ____.A. learn to give lecturesB. attend education programsC. design a working uniformD. develop a common hobby34. Willpower will become a habit when employees can ____.A. focus on the profitsB. benefit from the jobC. protect themselves wellD. control their feelings well35. What can we infer from the passage?A. G&G has grown into a large company.B. G&G will spend half its profits training employees.C. G&G may become more successful in the future.D. G&G has to produce more workbooks for managers.第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

I was teaching fourthgrade and my students had made me 31 . I just had to get through one of the hardest days of the school year.The morning bell rang. I walked 32 through the cold into the overly heated school building. Twenty-two smiling faces 33 me at the school bus stop. I forced myself to 34 their smiles. Back into the classroom, they 35 , comparing plans for the 36 . I had to remove one student from each arm 37 __ I could take a seat at my desk for my morning duties. Before I could find my roll book〔点名册〕my desk was covered with 38 and gifts followed by a 39 of “Merry Christmas〞wishes.“Oh, thank you,〞 I must have 40 a million times. Each gift was truly special to me, except my 41__ mood. It was kind of them to 42 me. After a while, I heard a small nervous 43 say my name. I looked up to see Brandon standing 44 by my desk, holding a small, round gift. “This is for you.〞“Thank you, Sweetheart.〞 I laid it on my desk with the others.“Um, could you 45 it now?〞I gently tore at the paper and tape. “ 46 ,〞he said, “it’s breakable.〞Slowly I opened a small, green Christmas tree ornament〔装饰物〕, complete with a hook already 47 .

At other crossroads, drivers have to go slow, but they do not actually have to stop unless, of course, there is something coming along the main road; and at still others, they do not have either to stop or to go slow, because they are themselves on the main road.Mr. Williams, who was always a very careful driver, was driving home from work one evening when he came to a crossroad. It had a “SLOW〞 sign. He slowed down when he came to the main road, looked both ways to see that nothing was coming, and then drove across without stopping completely.At once he heard a police whistle, so he pulled into the side of the road and stopped.A policeman walked over to him with a notebook and a pen in his hand and said, “You didn’t stop at that crossing.〞“But the sign there doesn't say ‘STOP’.〞answered Mr. Williams, “It just says ‘SLOW’, and I did go slow.〞The policeman looked around him, and a look of surprise came over his face. Then he put his notebook and pen away, scratched his head and said, “Well, I’m in the wrong street!〞51. When he was stopped by a policeman, he ____.A. was driving at a high speedB. was driving onto the main roadC. was going to stop his carD. was pulled into the crossroad52. Though slowly, Mr. Williams continued driving at the crossing because________ .A. he saw a “STOP〞 sign in the opposite streetB. he paid no attention to the traffic rulesC. he didn't have to stopD. he was eager to get home53. Looking round Mr. Williams, the policeman was surprised because__________ .A. he met a mad manB. he realized that he himself was mistakenC. Mr. Williams dared to speak to him like thatD. Mr. Williams would not apologize to him54. What does “scratch〞 in the last paragraph mean?A. to rub the skin of (the head) for uncertaintyB. to strike (the head ) for regretC. to nodded for sureD. to look back to search for somethingBYou might think that “global warming〞 means nothing more than a rise in the world'stemperature. But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation 〔撤离〕of an island nation—the citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.During the 20th century, sea level rose 8—12 inches. As a result. Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water which has polluted the country's drinking water. Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official ,reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years. Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms. Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions〔导致温室效应的气体排放〕,which are a main cause of global warming. “By refusing to sign the agreement, the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years,〞 Laupepa told the BBC. Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries.Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable〔易受影响的〕to rising sea levels. Maumoon Gayoon ,president of the Maldives, told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311,000 an “endangered nation〞.55. The text is mainly about ________ .A. rapid changes in earth's temperatureB. bad effects of global warmingC. moving of a country to a new placeD. reasons for lowland flooding56. According to scientists ,the DIRECT cause of more and fiercer storms is _________ .A. greenhouse gas emissions in industrialized nationsB. higher surface water temperatures of the seaC. continuous global warmingD. rising sea levels57. Laupepa was not satisfied with the United States because it did not _________.A. agree to reduce its greenhouse gas emissionsB. sign an agreement with TuvaluC. allow Tuvaluans to move to the USD. believe the problems facing Tuvalu were real58. The country whose situation is similar to that of Tuvalu is _________.A. AustraliaB. New ZealandC. the MaldivesD. the United States59. Which of the following words has the similar meaning as the word “forefathers〞inthe fourth paragraph?A. citizensB. relativesC. ancestorsD. friendsCNo country in the world has more daily newspapers than the USA. There are almost 2,000 of them, as compared with 180 in Japan, 164 in Argentina and 111 in Britain. The quality of some American papers is extremely high and their views are quoted (引用) all over the world. Distinguished dailies like the Washington post or the New York Times have a powerful influence all over the country. However the Post and the Times are not national newspapers in the sense that The Times is in Britain or Le Monde is in France, since each American city has its own daily newspaper. The best of the these present detailed accounts of national and international news, but many tend to limit themselves to state or city news.Like the press in most other countries, American newspapers range from the "sensational", which feature crime, sex and gossip, to the serious, which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events. But with few exceptions American newspapers try to entertain and give as much information as possible, for they have to compete with the attraction of television.Just as American newspapers satisfy all tastes, so do they also try and appeal to readers of all political persuasions. A few newspapers support extremist groups on the far right and on the far left, but most daily newspapers attempt to attract middle-of-the-road Americans who are essentially moderate. Many of these papers print columns by well-known journalists of differing political and social views, in order to present a balanced picture.As in other countries American newspapers can be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that the American press serves its country well and that it has more than once courageously exposed political scandals or crimes, for instance, the Watergate Affair. The newspapers drew the attention of the public to the horrors of the Vietnam War.60. There are fewer national newspapers in ___________A. Britain than in the USAB. France than in BritainC. the USA than in Britain or FranceD. France than in the USA or Britain61. Most American newspapers try hard to entertain their readers because __________A. they have to keep up a good relation with themB. they have to compete with televisionC. they have to write about crime and gossipD. they have to give factual news in an interesting way62. Many American newspapers attract readers of different political preferenceby___________A. supporting extremist groups from time to timeB. inviting middle-of-the-road Americans to write articles for themC. avoiding carrying articles about extremistsD. printing articles representing different political viewpoints63. The passage is mainly about ______________A. the characteristics of American newspapersB. the development of American newspapersC. the functions of American newspapersD. the advantages and disadvantages of American newspapersDExternal bleeding〔1〕Apply direct pressure. Place a clean, folded cloth over the injured area and firmly apply pressure. If blood soaks through, do not remove it. Instead, cover thatcloth with another one and continue to apply pressure to the wound for 7~10 minutes. If the bleeding is from the ear, place a clean bandage over the ear, lay the victim on his side, and allow the blood to drain out through the bandage.〔2〕Elevate the injury. Position the wounded part of the body above the level of the heart if possible while you apply direct pressure.〔3〕Know the pressure points. If direct pressure and elevation don't sufficiently slow the bloodflow, find a pressure point. Large arteries(动脉) found close to the skin's surface supply blood to the head and to each arm and leg. The most common pressure points used during the first aid are located in the upper arms and in the creases〔皱纹〕 above the upper legs. Apply pressure to the closest pressure point to the wound so that the artery is pressed between your fingers and the bone directly behind the artery. If using the pressure point on a leg, you may need to use the heel of your hand instead of your finger.〔4〕Resort to a tourniquet〔止雪带,压脉器〕.On very rare occasions everything listed above may fail. To prevent the victim from dying, you should apply a tourniquet. Once a tourniquet is applied, it should not be loosened or removed until the victim has reached medical help. Use a tourniquet ONLY if everything listed above has failed. If you use a tourniquet, write down somewhere on the victim the time when it was applied, so medical personal will know how long it has been in place.64. According to the passage, if a person is wounded and bleeding, you should _____.A. cover the wound with a clean, folded cloth and press itB. spread some salve (药膏) on the woundC. pressed the wound firmly with your fingerD. place a clean bandage over the wound65. If the blood soak through the cloth, you should _____.A. change a clean one immediatelyB. wash the wound at onceC. press the wound firmly with your handD. cover that one with another one and press it66. The underlined word in the sentence “apply〞 means _____.A. 申请B.应用C. 实施D. 生效67. In this passage _____ ways are mentioned to stop blood.A. fourB. threeC. twoD. one68. According to the passage, we know that _____.A. it is better to put the injured part above the head to stop bleedingB. large arteries deep in the muscle supply blood to the head and to each arm and legC. we should use a tourniquet first to stop bleedingD. the most common pressure points lie in the upper arms and in the crease above theupper legs四、单句改错1.His action has left a deeply impression on people’s minds.2.The surroundings villages have been absorbed into the growing city.3.Can you recommend a person who can take in the job?4.He seems to be lacking of common sense.5.After his wife’s death, it took him two years to get back to his feet.6.To be honest, I can’t come up with the noise.7.He left, leaving the door unlock.8.I believe the house was deliberate set fire to.9.Not until late into the night he finished the report.10.Your girl friend might accuse you about dishonesty.11.It’s helpful to put children in a situation that they can see themselvesdifferently.12.The job to which you have applied is honorable and well paid.13.Women used to do fewer hard jobs than men, but now they are doing just as much.14.While studied in Beijing University, he got to know a lot of famous professors.15.Mr. Smith treated his friend for lunch so as to thank him for his help.五、翻译句子1.我想让我的孩子在健康的环境下成长。

AA machine that takes sweat-laden clothes and turns the moisture into drinking water is in use in Sweden. The device spins and heats the material to remove the sweat, and then passes the vapor through a special membrane(膜) designed to only let water molecules(分子) get through.Since its Monday launch, its creators say more than 1,000 people have “drunk others’ sweat" in Gothenburg. They add the liquid is cleaner than local tap water.The device was built for the United Nation's child-focused charity UNICEF to promote a campaign highlighting the fact that 780 million people in the world lack access to clean water.The machine was designed and built by engineer Andreas Hammar, known locally for his appearances on TV tech show Mekatronik. He said the critical part of the sweat machine was a new water purification component developed by a company named HVR in collaboration with Sweden's Royal Institute of Technology."It uses a technique called membrane distillation(膜蒸馏)," he told the BBC."We use a substance that's a bit like Gortex that only lets steam through but keeps bacteria, salts, clothing fibers and other substances out."They have something similar on the International Space Station to treat astronaut's urine - but our machine was cheaper to build. Volunteers have been sampling the treated sweat since the start of the week in Gothenburg .“The amount of water it produces depends on how sweaty the person is - but one person's T-shirt typically produces 10ml , roughly a mouthful."The equipment has been put on show at the Gothia Cup - the world's largest international youth football tournament. MattiasRonge, chief executive of Stockholm-based advertising agency Deportivo - which organized the stunt(惊人的表演) - said the machine had helped raise awareness for UNICEF, but in reality had its limitations."People haven't produced as much sweat as we hoped - right now the weather in Gothenburg is lousy," he said."So we've installed exercise bikes alongside the machine and volunteers are cycling like crazy."Even so, the demand for sweat is greater than the supply. And the machine will never be mass produced - there are better solutions out there such as water purifying pills."24.Which of the following is the disadvantage of the machine?_______.A. The water processed by the machine is cleaner than local tap water .B. The amount of water the machine produces is too small.C.The machine is cheaper than the similar one on the International Space StationD.

How the machine was invented.D. Why the machine was invented..26.What does Mattias Ronge think of the machine?____A. The machine can solve the severe water shortage in the world.B. People do not like the water the machine processesC. The machine should be used in rather hot areas in summer.D. The machine is not worth popularizing.BAs you move around your home, take a good look at the things you have. It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven. Your bedroom drawers will be filledwith almost three times as many clothes as yon need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.Now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long-hours work culture to make more money to buy more things is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes. Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them.Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year. One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs , leaving their two children with a nanny (保姆). Most evenings Daniel wouldn't get home until eight or nine o'clock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. "I always wanted to have a farm hen," says Daniel, "and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. It's taken some getting used to, but it's been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think it's made us stronger as a family, and the children are a lot happier.Liz, however, is not quite sure. "I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. I'm not really a country girl, but I suppose I'm gradually getting used to looking after the animals. One thing I do like, though, is being able to see more of my children. My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all."74. What do the first two paragraphs tell us?A. People seldom work long hours to make money.B. People hardly buy more things than necessary.C. People are sure everything they own is in the right place.D. People realize there is more to life than just making money.75. When Daniel was a reporter he _________________.A. lived in central LondonB. disliked his jobC. missed his childrenD. was well paid76. What does the underlined "it" in the last paragraph refer to?A. Child-caring.B. Liz's advice.C. Downshifting.D. Liz's job.77. The underlined word "downshifting" in the second paragraph means _________.A. repairing your car by yourselfB. spending money carefullyC. moving out to the countryside to live a simpler and better lifeD. living in a big house in the suburbs and dining out once a week.CThe writer Margaret Mitchell is best known for writing Gone with the Wind, first published in 1936. Her book and the movie based on it, tell a story of love and survival during the American Civil War. Visitors to the Margaret Mitchell House in Atlanta, Georgia, can go where she lived when she started composing the story and learn more about her life.Our first stop at the Margaret Mitchell House is an exhibit area telling about the writer’s life. She was born in Atlanta in 1900. She started writing stories when she was a child. She started working as a reporter for the Atlanta Journal newspaper in 1922. One photograph of Ms. Mitchell, called Peggy, shows her talking to a group of young college boys. She was only about one and a half meters tall. The young men tower over her, but she seems very happy and sure of herself. The tour guide explains: “Now in this picture Peggy is interviewing some boys from Georgia Tech, asking them such questions as ‘Would you really marry a woman who works?’ And today it’d be ‘Would you marry one who doesn’t?’ ”The Margaret Mitchell House is a building that once contained several apartments. Now we enter the first floor apartment where Ms. Mitchell lived with her husband, John Marsh. They made fun of the small apartment by calling it “The Dump”.Around 1926, Margaret Mitchell had stopped working as a reporter and was at home healing after an injury. Her husband brought her books to read from the library. She read so many books that he bought her a typewriter and said it was time for her to write her own book. Our guide says Gone with the Wind became a huge success. Margaret Mitchell received the Pulitzer Prize for the book. In 1939 the film version was released. It won ten Academy Awards, including Best Picture.27. The book Gone with the Wind was _________.A. first published on a newspaperB. awarded ten Academy AwardsC. written in “The Dump”D. adapted from a movie28.

A Trip to Know Margaret Mitchell.DMany Chinese people are confused with the two nations: one is known for its cheese and watches; the other for IKEA and Volvo.The problem largely stems from the fact that both nation’s names are written similarly in Mandarin---Ruidian(Sweden) and Ruishi (Switzerland)------which beginwith the same symbol, according to the Swedish Consul General Victoria Liu in China.In an effort to put an end to the mix-up, the Swedish and Swiss governments have launched a competition on a website, asking Chinese people to come up with funny ways to help differentiate the two countries. Submissions can be accepted as a blog post, cartoon, photo, short film or in any other format.The winner with the best submission will receive a 12-day trip to Sweden and Switzerland and will be expected to report back on his/her impressions of both countries following the trip, the website states. Entries will be accepted until November 20.The organizers have also devised a humorous campaign logo with objects and people associated with Sweden and Switzerland on separate maps of each country. Sweden’s map features meatballs, a Viking, as well as two male cartoon figures with a heart between them symbolizing gay marriage, which remains illegal in Switzerland. Switzerland’s map features cheese, the Alps and a picture of Roger Federer.China may not be the only country struggling to tell Sweden and Switzerland apart. Residents of Spanish-speaking countries also fall victim to the confusion as Sweden is spelt “Suecia” in Spanish while Switzerland is called “Suiza”.Sweden and Switzerland aren’t the only places that have caused confusion among people. Last month, , a British holidaymaker hoped to explore the architecture of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain, but instead mistakenly caught a flight across the Atlantic to the tropical Caribbean island of Grenada following a confusing booking blunder. Earlier this summer, two US holidaymakers were flown to the wrong continent after an airline confused two airport codes.63.What can we learn about the competition launched by the two governments?A. The winner of the competition will receive a 24-day trip altogether to both of the countries.B. The winner will report his/her impressions on the two countries in his/her submission.C. T he competition is held among all people around the world.D.
