Folklore is a collection of tales and bits of wisdom that teach children how to behave and think. It includes legends,songs, art, tales, myths, and proverbs, People pass on folklore from one generation to the next. Folklore helps keep history alive. For example, legends are folktales that are based on true stories. The plain truth about history is not always exciting. To keepis about Davy Crockett. Davy Crockett lived in the woods on the frontier, or the region where people explored and lived on new land. He became a leader, and he fought in a war with Mexico. People exaggerated the facts when they told stories about the brave things he had done. Davy Crockett began to stand for the spirit ofthe frontier. Children enjoyed the tales. They also learned about frontier lifethrough stories about Davy Crocketttall tales about the American West. An example of a tall tale is the story aboutPaul Bunyan. the giant lumberjack, or woodcutter. The tale says that Bunyan's clothes were so large that his shirt buttons were wagon wheels.

Grades one through eight shared the same classroom.A one-room schoolhouse was usually built of wood and painted white or red.To get to school, children walked, rode horses, or rode in a buggy. When it was time for school to begin, the teacher rang a bell, Then the children went inside.Sometimes they stopped in a small room first to wash their hands. They poured water from a jug, or pitcher, into a bowl called a basin. They hung their coats on hooks in a cloakroom. Then they went to their desks. They stood to recite the Pledge of Allegiance. The smallest children sat in the smallest desks at the front of the room. These children were the closest ones to the teacher's desk. The tallest children sat in the back. A potbelly stove stood in the middle of the room. The stove heated the room on cold days, The children who sat near the stove may have felt too warm. The children who sat farthest away may have felt cold. The stove burned fuel such as wood or coal.The children studied arithmetic, or math; geography: science; history; reading art;and penmanship, or neat writing. Teachers wrote lessons on a blackboard at the front of the room. Students did math problems or practiced writing on the blackboard. In some schools, students had their own small blackboards, called slates, to write on One teacher had to teach all grade levels, so teachers often taught the children one at a time.The teacher expected the children to behave well and punished those who did not. The teacher may have used a leather strap, a wooden cane, or a wooden paddle for this task. Sometimes a child who had behaved badly would have to cut a switch from a tree. The teacher would then hit the child with the switch as punishment. Recess was at noon. The children played and ate lunch. Students often carried their lunches to school in metal pails. In very cold weather, the teacher sometimes cooked hot food onthe stove. Lessons resumed in the afternoon. When school ended for the day, thechildren went home. They rarely had homework. Their parents required them to help with chores in the house or on the farm. Only a few children owned books. When students had to carry books to and from school. they tied the books together with a leather strap and held on to the loose end of the strap.( )8,In a one-room schoolhousue, children in grades one through eight________A.had different teachers B learned the same lessons.B.shared the same classroom D.had different classrooms( )9,The middle of a classroom usually had_____________.A .a potbelly stove B. a picture and a basinC .paper sacks D. a teacher’s desk( )10,A student who had books carried them_____________.A.inside a basinB. in a metal pailB.With a leather strap D. with a horse( )11.

2017-2018学年人教版高一英语暑假作业：(17)
2017-2018学年人教版高一英语暑假作业（17）一、阅读理解1. Trees are useful to man in three important ways: they give him wood and other useful things, they give him cool places, and they help to stop drought and flood.Unluckily, in many parts of the world, man has not found that the third of these points is the most important. Man wants to make money from trees, so he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. And also, he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees. The results are even worse: for where there are trees, their roots break up soil, make the rain in, and also bind the soil, thus stopping it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing is left but useless desert.1.The most important points of trees to man is that ________.A.they help him to make moneyB.they give him coolC.they give him wood and other thingsD.they help him to stop drought and floods2.In many places forests slowly disappear because ________.A.many trees have been cut down by manB.new trees are not well looked afterC.man has not paid enough attention to planting treesD.all the abovend becomes desert after all trees are cut down because ________.A.roots of trees break up the soilB.there are too many rainfalls to make itC.strong winds bring a lot of sandD.no tree keeps the rain and protects the top-soil.4.Which title best fits the passage?A.Trees and ManB.The Function of Tree WoodC.What do People do with Trees?D.The Usage of Tree Roots2. Yoga has been teaching people to look for a spiritual and physical unity (统一) for centuries. There remains a need to get rid of distractions (分心). This means finding a peaceful place free of distractions and a posture that allows good breathing and relaxing. You also need to wear clothing that will breathe with you, move with you and you will do it all without uncomfortable distractions. That is the role of yoga clothing.Before deciding on what kind of yoga clothing you will choose, take a look at the type of yoga you will be studying. Some types of yoga require much attention with their easy movements or deep thoughts. For this type of yoga, people usually prefer yoga clothing that is warm. Bikram and Hot Yoga are performed in a room no less than 95 Fahrenheit degrees. People who choose thiskind of yoga will naturally require yoga clothing that is light and won’t cause chafing (擦破皮)when wet.One type of yoga came from the school of Vinyasa Yoga. This type attaches great importance to the movement from one posture to the next. It is a form that results in cardiovascular (心脏血管的) rewards. However, it puts a lot of requirements on the clothing. It must be comfortable and be able to move with you freely. Ashtanga and Power Yoga belong to this kind of yoga.Yoga is a kind of exercise that needs to touch every part of your life. While you are expecting it to change everything of your life, take a look at the clothing you can put on. A T-shirt that can be worn anywhere will help you take your yoga with you.1.Why yoga clothing is important for people to do yoga?A.Because it makes them look physically beautiful.B.Because it allows them have a good rest and breath.C.Because it can get rid of distractions while doing yoga.D.Because it lets them concentrate on the exercise of yoga.2.From the second paragraph, we can learn that ______.A.Yoga clothing has nothing to do with the type of yoga you will be studyingB.Yoga can catch one’s attention easily if you are devoted to it.C.You should choose warm clothes if your yoga needs easy movementsD.you’d better choose thick clothes if you play the kind of yoga Bikram in a room.3.What’s the most important thing for doing Ashtanga?A.The connection between the movements.B.The power of people’s hearts.C.The style of the yoga clothing.D.The thoughts coming into people’s mind.4.What do we know from the last paragraph?A.T-shirts are the best yoga clothing for you.B.You can do yoga anywhere while wearing a suitable shirt.C.You can print the skills of yoga on a T-shirt and take it everywhere.D.A good T-shirt will help you learn yoga better wherever you learn.3.

To prevent the deserts coming near, China has planted billions of trees---to replace destroyed forests and as barr iers against the sand. This isn’t a cure, though, say experts, as thirsty trees can make the problem worse by taking in groundwater.“Planting trees is one way, but it isn’t that simple. It doesn’t solve the basic issue of water resources,” says Wu Bo, a professor. “We need to calculate how much water the trees will absorb, or else it could have a negative effect.”Villagers in Zhengxin have taken on this challenge, with limited success. When the irrigation channels began to run dry, Lu Xianglin switched from wheat to cotton on his land. He also planted trees to protect his fields from sandstorms. He says he still gets good yields(产量)using flood irrigation (灌溉) and earns a good income for his family.Other farmers haven’t stuck it out(坚持到底): about one in three have left Zhengxin in the past 10 years after their wheat crops died. Young people who can find jobs in the towns rarely return.Last week, Mr Lu joined the other men in his village on a government-arranged trip to see the land that has been set aside for their relocation, nearly 40 miles to the south. The next day, he was back, shaking his head at the plan. The idea of uprooting his family troubles him, as does the idea of giving up the land that fed his forefathers. He prefers to stay and keep up the fight.“With enough water, this problem can be solved,” Lu says. “We can plant trees and grass, and they will grow bigger. That will stop the desert.”Experts say that farmers could switch to drip irrigation to lessen (减少) their water intake for growing crops. Elsewhere in the region, farmers have built brick greenhouses as part of a plan to grow vegetables using less water. Roadside signs call on farmers to “Save Water, Protect the Environment”.1.The negative effect of planting trees in deserts is that __________.A.it can make groundwater become lessB.it can prevent the sand moving freelyC.it can stop crops growing wellD.it can get the soil to become poor2.Why did Mr. Lu NOT accept the idea of relocation?A.Because the plan of relocation will cost him much money.B.Because his family had trouble moving away.C.Because he was unwilling to give up his land.D.Because he would rather stay than fight against the deserts.3.What can we infer from the passage?A.The deserts drive more and more people to leave their homes for their lives.B.People have no means to fight against the land becoming desert.C.Water is the biggest barrier for people to stop the desert.D.Planting trees cannot solve the problem of desertification of farmland.4.What advice is given by experts to save water?A.To plant more trees.B.To build greenhouses.C.To change crops.D.To use drip irrigation.二、七选五5.根据对话内容,从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

2017-2018学年人教版高一英语暑假作业（22）一、阅读理解1. The next day, the old man boarded with a big smile and said in a loud voice: “A very good morning to you all!” Some of us looked up, amazed, and murmured “Good Morning” in reply.The following weeks, our friend was dressed in a nice old suit and tie. His thin hair had been carefully combed. He said good morning to us every day and we gradually began to nod and talk to each other.One morning he even had a bunch of wild flowers in his hand. The driver turned around smiling and asked: “Have you got yourself a girlfriend, Charlie?” We never got to know if his name really was “Charlie”, but he nodded shyly and said yes. The other passengers whistled and clapped at him. Charlie waved the flowers before he sat down on his seat.Every morning after that Charlie always brought flowers. Some passengers also brought flowers for him. The bus became a happy place.Then, one morning, as autumn was closing in, Charlie wasn’t waiting at his usual stop. When he wasn’t t here the next day and the day after that, we started wondering if he was sick or—hopefully – on holiday somewhere.When we came nearer to the center for senior citizens, one of the passengers asked the driver to wait. We all held our breaths when he went to the door.The old gentle man was fine, but one of his close friends had died over the weekend. How silent we were the rest of the way to work.The next Monday Charlie was waiting at the stop, stooping (弯腰) a bit more, a little bit more gray, and without a tie. Inside the bus was silent. Even though no one had talked about it, all of us sat there silently, our eyes filled with tears and a bunch of wild flowers in our hands.1.From the passage, we can infer that__________.A.people are not good at communicating in the countryB.people were unhappy and sleepy on the bus because they were tiredC.smiles can shorten the distance between peopleD.people always cared about each other on the bus2.What are we sure about the old man?A.He worked at the center for senior citizens.B.His name was Charlie.C.He got sick over the weekend.D.He was in great sorrow when we saw him the next Monday.3.Which of the following isnot true?A.People on the bus at last shared happiness and sorrow together.B.People we re surprised at the old man’s first greeting.C.People were worried about the old man’s absence.D.The atmosphere on the bus was cheerful and lively at first.2. A supermarket checkout operator was praised for striking a blow for modern manners and a return to the age of politeness after refusing to serve a shopper who was talking on her mobile phone.The supermarket manager was forced to apologize to the customer who complained she was told her goods would not be scanned unless she hung up her phone. Jo Clark, 46, said, “I don’tknow what she was playing at. I couldn’t believe how rude she was. When did she have the right to give me a lecture on checkout manners? I won’t be shopping there again.”But users of social media sites and Internet forums(论坛)were very angry that store gave in and the public appeared to be in favor of the angry checkout worker. “Perhaps this is a turning point for mobile phone users everywhere. When chatting, keep your eyes on people around you. That includes people trying to serve you, other road users and especially people behind you in the stairs,” said a typical post.“It’s time that checkout staff(工作人员) fought back against these people constantly chatting on their phones. They can drive anyone crazy. It’s rude and annoying. I often want to grab someone’s phone and throw it as far as I can, even though I am not a checkout girl, just apasser-by,” said another.Siobhan Freegard, founder of parenting site said, “While this checkout operator doesn’t have the authority to order customers to switch off their phones, you can see clearly how frustrated and angry she felt. No matter how busy you are, life is nicer when you and those around you have good manners.”1.According to Jo Clark, the checkout operator ___________.A.deserved praise for her modern manners.B.played with a mobile phone while at work.cked the knowledge of checkout manners.D.had no right to forbid her from using her mobile phone.2.From the third and fourth paragraphs we can know that the public ___________.A.seem to support the checkout operator.B.are driven crazy by constant mobile calls.C.ignore the existence of mobile phone users.D.are used to chatting on their mobile phones.3.What is the attitude of Siobhan Freegard towards the checkout operator?A.DisapprovingB.NeutralC.SupportiveD.Indifferent4.The passage is mainly about ____________.A.why we can talk on mobile phones while shopping.B.what good manners checkout operators should have.C.how we can develop good manners for mobile phone.D.whether we should talk on our phones while being served.3. The world moves so quickly nowadays. With so many daily responsibilities, some of us can hardly keep our heads above water. Should we make time for studying or appreciating the arts? Many people would say the arts are nice, but not necessary. In school, students should focus on languages, math and science. Painting, drama and music are frills. After graduation, listening to Mozart won’t lead you to a better-paying job.In truth, spending time learning to appreciate the arts may be more worthwhile than you think.A recent British study examined the salaries and jobs of people who spent time enjoying the arts when growing up. The researchers found those who enjoyed the arts from an early age had better jobs and higher salaries than those who didn’t. What’s the link? How could visiting a museum,enjoying a symphony, or honing painting skills lead to career success? It turns out that the arts help us develop many useful skills.Other students have found students studying the arts exercise their reasoning ability. The skill helps with problem-solving. Creative and critical-thinking abilities are also developed through art study. Moreover, those who enjoy the arts have more motivation(动机)to achieve .Students who practice an art experience the rewards that come from persistence and goal-setting. These benefits also extend to those who make time to appreciate the arts beyond their school years. The best kind of art stirs(激起) o ur imagination and makes us think. Paintings aren’t just pretty pictures. They tell stories about the lives of the subjects or about the experience of the painter. See Michelangelo’s art and you’ll taste the power of his faith in God. Look at the world from Picasso’s point of view, and you see everyday life in new ways. Those who appreciate the arts also gain a broader perspective(视野) on the world. The arts reveal(显示) and explain the world beyond our own personal knowledge which can help us better communicate and cooperate with other people.If you want to better yourself, go and enjoy the arts. Check out an art gallery or a museum. Take in a play. You won’t regret it and it will do you more good than you can imagine.1.The underlined word “frills” in pa ragraph 1 probably means____________.A.decorationsB.necessitiesC.fillingsD.possessions2.The benefits of enjoying arts are all of the following EXCEPT___________.municating skillsB.high positionsC.problem-solving abilitiesD.creation and imagination3.How is the passage developed?A.By providing examplesB.By analyzing causesC.By listing the factsD.By comparing the facts4.What is the author’s attitude towards art appreciation?A.DoubtfulB.OpposedC.CriticalD.Supportive4. My husband and I have always been friendly with the clerks at the local convenience store where we often get petrol. I don't think people appreciate what a difficult job these people have sometimes. They work for a little money and I often wonder how they make ends meet.One of the clerks, Charlie,was missing her glasses one day, and she said they'd been broken and that she couldn't afford a new pair. It was obvious that she was having a difficult time.We wondered how we could help, so turned to our own eye doctor for help with a plan. We had his secretary contact her, asking her to come in for an eye exam free of charge. We told the doctor to let her order whatever glasses she wanted and that we would pay for them. Although Charlie questioned what was going on, the doctor just told her that someone had anonymously(用匿名的方式) paid the money for her new glasses. When we went in to pay the bill, the doctor told us he was so touched by our idea that he waived the exam fee(费用) and only charged us for half the price of the glasses!It was so wonderful to see Charlie in her new glasses and she enjoyed telling all the customers how it took place. I'm sure that upon hearing her story, ideas of kindness may have appeared in the minds of many. She will never know who the gift was from but I think the thing was planted for her.1.Why didn't the clerk “Charlie” wear glasses one day?A.A pair of glasses was too expensive for him.B.Her old glasses were broken.C.Her glasses were missing.D.She forgot to wear glasses.2.From the passage, we can infer that________.A.Charlie was a young manB.Charlie knew who paid money for the new glassesC.The Charlie's income was very littleD.Charlie must have known who offered the help3.The underlined word “waived” in the third paragraph can be replaced by________.A.gave upB.took upC.turned upD.put off4.The best title of the passage should be________.A.The Hard TimesB.Customer's Gift to an EmployeeC.A Friendly Clerk—CharlieD.A kind Doctor二、七选五5.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。

2017-2018学年人教版高一英语暑假作业：(18)
2017-2018学年人教版高一英语暑假作业（18）一、阅读理解1 When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm, and in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that city life has its problems too.One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment (娱乐活动). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising — and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is , when you are in your teens (十几岁) or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.1.What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?A.Staying on the farm.B.Moving to the countryside.C.Running away from the school.D.Leaving home for the city.2.Which of the following is true about the writer?A.He lives in the city now.B.He is in good health.C.He prefers driving a car.D.He is very old now.3.In the passage, the writer tries to __________.A.describe his life in the countrysideB.express his opinions about way of lifeC.show an interest in the outside worldD.persuade the reader to live in the city4.How is the passage mainly developed?A.By inferring.B.By listing examples.C.By comparing.D.By giving explanations.2 Here I will introduce some books to you.Cook Yourself Young--By Elizabeth Peony-JonesWant to look and feel 10 years younger? Eager to remove bags under your eyes, and other unpleasant symptoms of aging? Long to lose weight and stay slim? All you need is to change whatyou eat and to COOK YOURSELF YOUNG. In her revolutionary new book, Cook Yourself Young, a health expert Elizabeth Peony-Jones explains how simply by changing the way you cook can make yourself look younger and live a healthier, more balanced life.Celebrations and Special Days--By Ellen LawrenceIn Celebrations and Special Days, young readers will join children around the world as they celebrate religious festivals and special family days, such as weddings and coming of age ceremonies. From Holi (胡里节) to Hanukkah, Easter to Ramadan, readers will join families as they prepare special meals, decorate their homes, and take part in the special times that shape our lives.The Story of the Lost Child--By Elena Ferrante“Nothing quite like this has ever been published before,” said The Guardian newspaper about the Neapolitan Novels in 2014. “Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay, the third book in the series, was an international bestseller and a New York Times Notable Book of the Year.” Its author was considered as one of the greatest novelists of our time by the New York Times Book Review. This fourth and final book in the series raises the bar(更上一层楼) even higher and indeed confirms Elena Ferrante as one of the world’s best living storytellers.1.Which book should you buy if you want to look young?A.Cook Yourself YoungB.Celebrations and Special DaysC.The Story of the Lost ChildD.New York Times Book Review2.Who is Celebrations and Special Days prepared for?A.Old people.B.All the people.C.Young people.D.Middle aged people.3.What can we learn about Elena Ferrante?A.She is the greatest novelist in the US.B.Her books sell best at the present time.C.She is the author of Celebrations and Special Days.D.She belongs to the best living storytellers.3 In some science-fiction movies, robots refuse to die no matter how people fight back (反击). Now, it has turned into a fact. For the first time, researchers have created a robot that can take a beating (挨打) and keep on working. Developed by scientists from Cornell University and the University of Vermont, the new robot looks like a spider with four legs.Until now, even the most advanced robot was almost certain to break down when damaged. That’s because its computer doesn’t know how to operate the machine after its shape has been changed.To solve this problem, the scientists put some sensors (传感器) into the machine. The sensors can read how the machine is working and send signals to the computer.Using this inform ation, the system follows a new way to tell the machine’s shape at any given moment. The computer considers a lot of possible next steps, and it calculates how best to move the robot forward the longest possible distance, before trying to move it again.The new technology is a major advance in robotics (机器人技术), scientists say. It may someday help researchers create better artificial arms and legs that give new freedom to people who lack them. The new knowledge might also help scientists understand how people and animals tell their own sense of place in space.“Designing robots that can fit changing environments has been a difficult problem,” says scientist Olaf Sporns of Indiana University. “This work provides a new way toward solving this important problem.”1.Why do robots easily break down when they are damaged?A.They cannot repair themselves.B.The computer has changed a lot.C.They have nothing special to protect them.D.The computer cannot operate a changed robot.2.How do the sensors in the robot work?A.They can replace the computer when it’s broken.B.They can find out where the damage comes from.C.They help the computer learn the robot’s condition.D.They can send signals to the person who uses the robot3.The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 refers to “_______”.A.robotsB.arms and legsC.sensorsD.researchers4.What does Olaf Sporns think of the new robot?A.He does not express his opinions clearly.B.He doubts if it can work well in real life.C.He thinks it is a great development in robotics.D.He thinks more experiments are needed to test it.4. I used to think that life in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, was filled with never-changing routines.I hated that everyone seemed to know everything about everyone else. Everyone seemed to enjoy talking about other people and their lives. I also didn’t like the fact that people seemed veryclose-minded. I felt trapped. I felt like I was missing out on chances. It seemed to me that city life would be quite different.Then I took my first trip to New York City. I couldn’t wait to experience the city. However, when I arrived in the Big Apple, it wasn’t at all what I had imagined. I knew it was home to thousands of people, but I hadn’t had the least expectation to see so many people on the street at one time. All the streets were filled with people. I also felt a little surprised to see that everyone was in a hurry and everything moved at such a fast pace. When I took the subway for the first time,I said “hello” to the middle-aged woman next to m e. She looked at me with dislike and didn’t saya word.After just one day, I realized how important my small town is to me. Now I appreciate the familiar faces I see every day. I like the feeling of safety and belonging my town offers. JimThorpe give s me a sense of community and togetherness that the city doesn’t provide. I realize just how much a simple “hello” does for a stranger—it really can make your day a little better.My big trip showed me that my small town really has caused me to get morals and values little by little that I didn’t even know I had. I never would have known what a big place my town hold in my heart if I had not taken that trip to New York City.1.How did the author feel about life in Jim Thorpe at first?A.People there care little about othersB.Living there was a great disadvantageC.People there liked to accept new thingsD.There were many chances of career development2.What surprised the author most in New York City?A.The gestures of greetingB.The modern transportationC.The crowded streetsD.The fast pace of life3.What made the author change his/ her attitudes towards his/ her hometown?A.The familiar faces in Jim ThorpeB.A big place in his/ her townC.Everybody likes talking about othersD.Travelling to New York City.4.What would be the best title for the passage?A.A Sense of CommunityB.Love of My Small TownC.A Pleasant Trip to New York CityD.Differences Between Big Cities and Small Towns二、七选五5.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。

2017-2018学年人教版高一英语暑假作业：(33)
2017-2018学年人教版高一英语暑假作业（33）一、阅读理解1.Dear Betty,My roommate’s family wants me to celebrate Thanksgiving Day with them in their home. I accepted the invitation, and I’m excited about going, but I’m a little nervous about it, too. The social customs in m y country are different from those here, so I’m a little worried about making mistakes.Should I bring a gift, such as candy or flowers? Should I arrive on time or a little late? At the dinner table, how can I know which fork or knife to use? How can I let the family know that I’m thankful for their kindness?Yours,Knowing Nothing Dear Knowing Nothing,It’s a good idea to bring a gift when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always welcome, or you can bring a bottle of wine if you know the family drink it.You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don’t get there early. If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.Try to relax at the dinner table. If you don’t know how to use the right fork, knife or spoon, just watch the other guests, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, don’t be shy about asking the person next to you; it’s better to ask them than to be silently uncomfortable and nervous.If you like the food, say so. Of course, you’ll thank the host and hostess for the meal and for their kindness. It’s also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.Yours,Betty1.Knowing Nothing wrote a letter to Betty to _____.A.ask for some adviceB.tell Betty some good newsC.answer some questionsD.invite her to dinner2.According to Betty, Knowing Nothing ______ when going to a dinner party.A.can only bring some flowersB.can’t bring wineC.should arrive twenty minutes lateD.should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late3.Betty does NOT advise Knowing Nothing to _____.A.relax at the dinner tableB.keep silent at tableC.ask the person beside himD.watch the other guests2 Recently I came in contact with the true meaning of love. That would have been, Kane, a boy. Kane was the two-year-old son of Jolene, my new neighbor.At a glance Kane was a sight. He’d been born with hard sticks for legs. And on that morning Iwitnessed the effect that Kane’s physical shortcomings had on his family. But I also witn essed much more than that.I saw an extraordinary family that embraced this special child. A family that wouldn’t allow Kane to know he was different. Jolene had constructed a small cart just a few inches off the floor for his son to get around. Using hi s hands to move about, Kane moved the cart to “go to” any place just as everyone else was able to do. Kane worked that little cart like a master. Kane was a vital focus of the entire family. He was more than just a member of the family; he was the soul. This child was the driver, the motivator, and the founder of much of the interaction.Much later in my life, I came to realize that God had sent this child to help some of us who just weren’t getting what love was all about. Even with my limited capacity f or understanding at the time that Kane was a highly developed spirit with great wisdom.Kane demanded attention, but not because of his mobility challenges or other apparent shortcomings. In his mind, he had no challenges or shortcomings. The truth is that he received attention because he was alive and real and had so much to offer.Kane was and still is a lot of warm and powerful energy sent to us all, so we might learn that love surpasses all things. Kane, a fragile yet lovely baby, was here to teach us all an important lesson. And at the age of two he did just that.1.How did the author think of Kane’s family members?A.They were strange because they locked Kane at home.B.It was respectable for them to start their own business.C.It was ridiculous for them to make a cart for Kane.D.They were greatly brave to face all the difficulties.2.How did Kane “get to” everywhere he wanted to go?A.By moving his cart with his own hands.B.By asking his father to lead him ahead with a stick.C.By asking his grandparents to push hin everywhere.D.His parents specially employed a babysitter for him.3.Kane needed attention because he wanted to show ________.A.he can challenge his difficulty in movingB.he had challenges or shortcomings in his lifeC.he himself needed to be looked after by othersD.he had the power to prove he was capable too4.What can we learn from Kane’s story?A.Love me, love my dog.B.Love is above all things.C.Many hands make light work.D.Pure gold fears no fire.3 It seems that a great many of us are expressing our anger more. We seem to be flying into a rage (狂怒) all over the place and rage is now so common that the English language has gained several expressions to describe particular forms of it.The first of these ranges to be nam ed was “road rage”. This is used for drivers who are so enraged by other drivers or walkers that they let their anger get completely out of control. Often they get out of their cars and shout and make threatening gestures at the people who have annoyedthem. Sometimes they are so beside themselves that they attack the people physically, and there have even been cases where drivers have killed people.Police are sometimes called to people’s homes when rage gets out of control. In the worst cases, people who cannot control their tempers become guilty of family abuse and beat up their partners. This often leads to the break-up of the family and sometimes the imprisonment of the violent partner.The supermarket is another place where people get angry. People often become unhappy if they have to queue at the checkout counter, sometimes they become so angry that they are driven to “trolley rage”. Then they bang into others with their trolleys, sometimes causing injury.Passengers in planes also sometime s fly off the handle. Known as “air rage”, this form of anger is usually directed at members of the air crew. It is common that some passengers who lose their temper in the air often have taken too much alcohol in the airport bar and cause trouble or damage to the fight when they board the aircraft.1.When a driver is enraged by other drives, he may _________.A.jump onto their carB.damage their carsC.beat up his partnerD.attack them physically2.What can be a result of violence in the home?A.The worst family abuse often cause the break-up of a family.B.The partner who loses his or her temper will be taken to the police station.C.The police will become so angry with the husband who beat up his partner.D.The violent partner will be in prison for life.3.Which kind of rage is NOT mentioned in the reading?A.Road rageB.Trolley rageC.Police rageD.Air rage4.What does the passage tell us?A.Never use a trolley in the supermarket.B.Treat others with kindness.C.Notice your behavior whenever and wherever.D.Be patient and tolerant in life.4.Attention Residents(居民)!Spring is here and the office of Loveland Housing is happy to announce the dates for the 2018 Spring Cleanup!The cleanup in Loveland will take place on Saturday May 5th, beginning at 9:00 a. m. We will also do pick-up for Dove Valley, Windsor Meadows, and Century Ⅲ on the same day. The cleanup at Lone Tree in Estes Park will be done on Sunday May 6th, 2018.

Many of them can't catch up with others on many subjects because of that.

AMark Twain was a famous American writer in his day. He liked to play jokes on his friends. One day one of his friends lost his wallet and asked Mark Twain to pay his train ticket for him.“But I don't have enough money to pay both your ticket and mine，” Mark Twain said. The friend didn't know what to do.“We can do this，” said Mark Twain. “We can get on the train and when the conductor comes to check the tickets, you can hide under my seat.”Later, however, when the conductor came to check the tickets, Mark Twain gave him two tickets — one for himself and one for his friend. Then he explained in a loud voice, “My friend is a strange man. When he travels on a train, he does not like to sit on the seat. He prefers to lie on the floor under the seat.” Of course, everyone in the train looked at the poor friend under the seat and laughed at him loudly.1．Why did the friend ask Mark Twain to pay his train ticket for him?A. Because Mark Twain was very rich.B. Because the friend lost his money.C. Because Mark Twain was always ready to help others.D. Because the friend wanted to save his own money.2．Mark Twain told his friend that ________.A. he didn't know what to doB. he would buy a ticket for himC. the conductor wouldn't check the ticketsD. he hadn't got enough money for two tickets 3．Which of the following is RIGHT according to the passage?A. The friend preferred to lie on the floor.B. There were no conductors on the train.C. In fact, Mark Twain had bought two tickets.D. The friend got very angry with Mark Twain.BThere is one word that is on the lips of Americans, day and night, “Sorry”．One time as I was walking on the street, a young man ran by hurriedly, brushing against my handbag. Even as he continued on his way, he turned back and said “sorry” to me. Even in a rush, he didn't forget to apologize.One day, after I bought some apples, the salesman was giving me the change, but I wasn't ready for it, and a coin dropped on the ground. “I'm sorry”，he said while bending down to pick it up. I was puzzled — why would he apologize when it was my fault?Another time, I stepped on a man's foot in an escalator (自动扶梯). At the same time, we both said “sorry”. I thought it interesting. Was it really necessary for him to apologize?Later on, an American friend explained to me that according to the American ideas, the escalator is a public place which everyone should be able to stand in. After someone occupies his position in the escalator, making it difficult for someone else to find a place to stand in, isn't it necessary to express an apology?During my stay in America, I gradually realized that when friction (摩擦) occurs in daily life, Americans don't care much about who is responsible. If someone is troubled, a “sorry” is always necessary. Even if the other person is hurt, the “sorry” would cool tempers. Perhaps I never saw anyone quarreling on the buses, subways or streets in America.4．When I was walking in the street, ________.A. a young man wanted to rob me of my bagB. a young man ran by and wanted to brush my bagC. a young man said sorry to me for touching my bagD. a young man came hurriedly to help me with my bag5．When the salesman gave me the change, ________.A. I purposely didn't want to accept it from the salesmanB. the salesman purposely didn't want to pass it to meC. I was slower to accept it than the salesman to give it to meD. the salesman was slower to give it to me than I could accept it6．The man on whose feet I stepped apologized to me because ________.A. the escalator is a public placeB. the man was very afraid of meC. the “sorry” said to me was for everyoneD. there wasn't enough room to get my feet in 7．In this passage, the author seems to feel ________ the Americans' “sorry”．A. angry withB. disappointed withC. interested inD. approving ofCChina’s Manned Space Program8. According to the article, the Chinese spaceman traveling in space twice is ____________. A．Yang Liwei B．Fei Junlong C．Nie Haisheng D．Zhai Zhigang9. Shenzhou V went around the earth in space _____________.A．Once B．4 times C．5 times D．14 times10. Fei Junlong and Nie Haisheng stayed in space for _____________.A．1 day B．4 days C．5 days D．14 days11. Zhai Zhigang made our country’s first spacewalk in _____________.A．2013 B．2008 C．2005 D．2003DSydney is one of the most beautiful cities in the world and the 2000 Olympic Games put it on the map as one of the most lively and modern cities in the world. Any trip to Sydney is anadventure and with some of the world's most beautiful beaches, this city has so much to offer. Sydney is so large an area that choosing a hotel is something you need to do very carefully. Public transport is good, but it can be slow and being close to where you want to be is probably the most important factor.The first and most obvious choice is hotels around Circular Quay. Circular Quay is the heart of the city and one of the major interchanges where trains, buses and ferries meet. It's also where Sydney's two most famous landmarks are located — the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbor Bridge. This area is active and offers some of the best views you will ever get from a hotel room.The farther hotels in the city are much more suited to business travelers and they are usually less expensive. Darling Harbor is a great choice as it mixes a great view with being right in the centre of the city. Darling Harbor has hundreds of pubs, clubs and restaurants along the water's edge.If you don't feel like dealing with the hustle-and-bustle of the city and are looking for something a bit quieter, why not head out to the Northern Beaches. It's only a short ferry ride over to Manly where you can find two major hotels on the beach with a number of smaller boutiques (时装店)．12．What made Sydney famous as one of the most lively and modern cities in the world?A. Its traditional culture.B. Its beaches and hotels.C. The traffic system.D. The 2000 Olympics.13．If you want to live in a quiet hotel and buy some fashionable clothes or expensive gifts, you should choose one in ________.A. Circular QuayB. Darling HarborC. ManlyD. Sydney Harbor Bridge 14．We may know from the passage that ________.A. traveling to Sydney is boringB. Sydney's public transport is fastC. hotels in Manly are the cheapest in SydneyD. you can enjoy good views in Circular Quay15．The passage is mainly to ________.A. advertise the hotels in SydneyB. tell us how to choose a suitable hotel in SydneyC. show that Sydney is truly a heaven on earthD. describe Sydney after the 2000 Olympics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。

Four interesting books in discount.BMatthew Layton was 20 minutes from home in Sevierville, Tennessee, on a cold November night in 2016 when he got a cell phone call from his mother. "The mountain’s on fire,” she screamed, “and Brian’s up there!”Layton’s family owned a dozen rental cabins(小屋) on Shields Mountain, and Layton’s friend and fellow rental-cabin owner, Brian McGee, age 56, was up there trying to put the fire out by himself. Layton, 32, hit the gas. He lived on the mountain too.Layton turned around and headed for a dirt road. He made it about halfway up the steep, winding path before his front-wheel-drive car gave up. He called McGee, who drove down in his pickup so they could fight the fire together.They headed first to Layton’s rental cabins. “I wanted to make sure our guests were gone. They were,” says Layton. At that point, he had a choice: try to save his cabins or resc ue people renting other cabins nearby. “On the moun tain, you don't have many locals. They’re mostly tourists who don’t know their way around,” he says.Over the next two hours, the two friends drove through the smoky mountain, knockingon doors and leadi ng panicked people to safety. “I know that mountain so well,” Layton says, “I could drive and know exactly where I am just by time traveled.” Thanks to their brave and immediate action, the two helped 14 people out of the danger.Fourteen people died that night in Sevier County. But the fire didn’t take away a single life on Shields Mountain. And though his home and business were destroyed, Layton remains calm. “I wasn’t worried about my loss, not when I saw those families trapped on the mountain,” he says,“I knew I was gonna help them.”24. Where was Layton when the fire broke out?A. Visiting his mother.B. Away from his home.C. Heading for the cabins.D. Driving on a dirt road.25. What can we learn from Para.2-3?A. Layton’s car broke down ha lfway.B. Brian was in charge of Layton’s cabins.C. Layton picked up Brian on the path.D. Brian lived in the mountain alone.26. Why could the two friends rescue the people?A. They put out the fire before it spread.B. They turned to locals for help.C. Layton was familiar with the area.D. Brian gave up his own cabins.27. What did Layton mean in the last paragraph?A. He blamed himself.B. He suffered a lot.C. He was relieved.D. He felt sorry.CIf your friends are happy—turns out you’re more likely to be happy too.If your friends are overweight, that too ups the chances you’ll gain weight. Those effects have been shown in studies. And now researchers have identified another seemingly contagious quality: exercise.The researchers analyzed the running activity of more than a million people worldwide who used an exercise tracking device(装置) for five years. And they used weather patterns as a way to randomly examine different parts of that global network.Cities have different weather patterns, Sinan Aral, a computational social scientist at MIT says, this experiment allowed them to ask: Does a rainy day in New York affect running in San Diego? “If the weather in New York causes changes in the running behavior in San Diego, it can really only be happening through the influences of the friends who live between New York and San Diego.”And that is exactly what he and his colleague saw: that the behavior of one city’s runners could indeed affect the behavior of runners in another socially connected city. Women tended to be influenced more by the female runners in their networks. And less active runners tended to influence more active runners to run more, but not so much the other way around.Still, this could be valuable for health professionals. “We have to start thinking about consumers and citizens as networked consumers and citizens. Where they are influenced by and influence their social network in very strong ways, that will change the way a particular intervention(干涉) succeeds or fails.”In other words—if your prescription is more exercise? The doctors might want to write a prescription for your friends and family, too.28. Which does the underlined word “contagious” in Para. 1 mean?A. Affected.B. Excellent.C. Beneficial.D. Different.29. What can we conclude from the experiment?A. Weather changes people’s feelings.B. People’s behaviour affects each other.C. Exercise has something to do with weather.D. P eople’s connection depends on distance.30. What does “this” in Para. 5 refer to?A. Women are easier influenced by male runners.B. People in the same city affect each other more.C. Friends tend to influence each other in exercising.D. A rainy day in one city affects running in another.31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Think twice before running.B. More exercise benefits health.C. Weather patterns affect running behavior.D. Healthy behavior can spread like illness.DMany Americans think of driverless cars as a futuristic technology that will revolutionize travel in cities and along state highways. But recent experiments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have the potential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans underserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long as lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for innovation.A retirement community in San Jose, Calif. , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows the potential of self-driving cars to transform people’s lives. Built by a tech start-up called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limited to a two-mile road, but residents are already having the benefits of these autonomous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activities they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because they could not get to them.When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these residents—whose average age is 76—will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is easy to understand why California is moving to simplify regulations for the industry.In Michigan, forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden benefits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physical disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalition has strongly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, independentlives.Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future cannot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forced to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places like California and Michigan, and pass rules and regulations to unlock these hidden benefits of driverless cars.32. Wha t’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomous vehicles?A. Curious.B. Doubtful.C. Indifferent.D. Optimistic.33. What is the modified Ford Fusion?A. A kind of autonomous vehicle.B. A fleet of driverless taxis.C. A road for driverless cars.D. A retirement community.34. What are examples in California and Michigan to prove?A. Driverless cars’ disadvantages.B. Governments’ right decisions.C. Benefits to the aged and the disabled.D. The regulations are forward-thinking.35. What does the author attempt to inform us in the last paragraph?A. The benefits of driverless cars have been fully unlocked.B. Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technology.C. The concept of autonomous vehicles has been widely recognized.D. The weak groups are often overlooked despite technology advances.阅读附加题：Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness (荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warning. An avalanche (雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go — to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City — its present population is 762.1. What attracted the early settlers to New York City?A. Its business culture.B. Its small population.C. Its geographical position.D. Its favourable climate.2. What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson?A. Two-thirds of them stayed there.B. One out of five people got rich.C. Almost everyone gave up.D. Half of them died.3. What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson?A. They found the city too crowded.B. They wanted to try their luck elsewhere.C. They were unable to stand the winter.D. They were short of food.4. What is the text mainly about?A. The rise and fall of a city.B. The gold rush in Canada.C. Journeys into the wilderness.D. Tourism in Dawson.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。

I found an ad for selling greeting cards in the back of a children’s magazine. I thought to myse lf I could do this. I begged my mother to let me send for the kit (成套工具).Two weeks later the kit arrived. The next three hours later, I returned home withno card and a pocket full ofmoney shouting, “Mama, all the people couldn’t wait to buy my cards!” A salesperson was born.When I was twelve years old, my father took me to see Zig Ziegler. I remember sitting in the dark hall listening to Mr. Ziegler raise everyone’s spirits up to ceiling. I left there feeling like I could do anything. When we got to the car, I turned to my father and said, “Dad, I want to make people feel like that.”My father asked me what I meant. “I want to be a motivational speaker just like Mr. Ziegler,”I replied. A dream was born.Recently, I began pursuing my dream of motivating others. I realized that everything I had accomplished —the graduate degree, the successful sales career, speaking appointments, training and managing for a major fortune100 company as a senior manager— had prepared me for this moment. I told my boss who was a great leader I would leave the company though I might not reach such a height in career. He told me to proceed and he believed I would succeed.Having made that decision, I was immediately tested. One week after I gave notice, my husband was laid offfrom his job. We had recently bought a new home and needed both incomes to make the monthly mortgage (抵押) payment and now we were done to no income. I even planned to turn back to my former company, knowing they wanted me to stay but I was certain that if I went back, I would never leave. I decided I still wanted to move forward rather than end up with a mouth full of “if onlys” later on. A motivational speaker was born.When I held fast to my dream, even during the tough times, the miracles（奇迹）really began to happen. In ashort time period my husband found a better job. We didn’t miss a mortgage payment. And I was able to book several speaking appointments with new clients (客户). I discovered the incredible power of dreams. I loved my old job, my workmates and the company I left, but it was time to get on with my dream. To celebrate my success I had a local artist paint my new office as a garden. At the top of one wall she marked, “The world always makes way for the dreamer.”24.Why was the kit sent for?A. Selling greeting cards.B. Collecting greeting cards.C. Buying greeting cards.D. Sending greeting cards.25.When did the author decide to become a motivational speaker?A.After buying a new home by mortgage.B.After giving notice to leave her secure position in the company.C.After finding a job in a major fortune 100 company.D.After listening to Mr. Ziegler’s inspiring speech.26.The following statements about the author are correct EXCEPT ________ .A.She was once an excellent manager.B.She left her post at the height of her career.C.She was not sure whether the former company could accept her.D.She didn’t miss paying the monthly mortgage payment.27.What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph?A.Carry on with your dreams and you will be successful.B.Risk everything you have for a dream and you will succeed.C.The world belongs to all dreamers.D.Everyone will find their dreams.CLong before iphones, the cigarette was the companion of choice for restlessness. And long before Facebook and WeChat, it was tobacco that promised to better your social life. Now, quitting smartphones has become the new quitting smoking.Of course, technology does not yellow your teeth, cause disease or lead to cancer.But some individuals are soconcerned that device addiction is damaging their mental health. In order to reduce their dependence, even in Silicon Valley, people are turning off the messages that constantly buzz for their attention, banning smartphones from the bedroom and, curiously, changing the colors on their screens to a less tempting scale of gray.The big tech companies will have to work out how to respond to this new generation of quitters. Facebook isthe first to go public with its attempt, hoping its recent move can make the social network more homely.Last year the tech industry got a bad name—Big Tech—with unfortunate echoes(共鸣) of other industries that have faced fierce opposition, including Big Tobacco. Like them, the tech industry has to reduce concern from a new generation of activist shareholders(股东) that are questioning its role in the world. These campaigns are never as fierce as those faced by Big Tobacco. In the 1990s, socially responsible investors refused to put money in tobacco stocks.It is far difficult for investors to challenge Big Tech and hard to separate the good these companies do in theworld—connecting old friends and giving space for people to share their ideas—from the bad. In the meantime, stopping using technology remains problematic. In The W orld W ithout Mind: The Existential Threat of Big T ech, Franklin Foer argues that tech should be seen in a similar way to junk food: a convenience that some reject for more continuing nutrition.So we need to do more to turn the tide. In the same way that public service announcements made smokingaround your children taboo(禁忌),we can warn parents against losing themselves in their smartphones while taking care of kids.We can also create no-smartphone zones at dinner. Eventually smartphones could be banned from all public places and help us give our attention to the people around us instead.28.How did people keep close relationships with others in the past?A. By smoking.B. By drinking.C. By phoningD. By diningout.29.Why is the tech industry called Big Tech?A. It plays a bad role in the world.B. It is as big as Big Tobacco.C. It has an unfortunate name.D. It is a giant in Silicon Valley.30.What can we infer from Franklin Foer’s argument about the tech?A. It promotes social development.B. It is still favored by some people.C. It is worse than Big Tobacco.D. It offers continuing nutrition.31.Which can be the best title for the passage?A.Creating a No Smartphone LifeB.Smartphones Enrich Our Social LifeC.Smoking Does Greater Harm Than Smartphones DoD.Quitting Smartphones Is the New Quitting SmokingDComedy and PsychologyEarlier this year I did a part-time comedy course. The class was taught by Ryan,a professional comedian.Ihad performed a show, which wasn’t originally meant to be a comedy. However, the audience laughed at my first joke, then continued to laugh throughout the routines that were meant to be serious. So it was the audience who told me I was funny, but I didn’ t understand why or how to control the comic (滑稽的) moments. So, I joined the course to learn.“Turn off your editor that makes you say the right thing and remember how to be a child,” explained Ryan. “Don’t try to be clever. Don’t try too hard to be funny…and knowing all about the theory of humor is unlikely to help you much. Just behave in a silly way. That’s what people want to see on stage.” Ryan would help us loosen up by saying things like, “Wander around talking to others, but make sure that you’re the lowest status person here.”I’d say that understanding the psychology of humor has actually helped. RecentlyI came across the bookInside Jokes: Using Humor to Reverse-Engineer the Mind. Its main idea is that any self-directed intelligent system will need to correct its own fault. There’s a risk that the occasional error will be made. If this was boring or burdensome, we’d be less willing to do it. However, evolution has made the process fun.Here’s a joke in the book: Two fish are in a tank. One says to the other, “Do you know how to drive thisthing?” It works on the principle that we have started to imagine one thing—that the tank is the typical container people keep fish in—and, just in time, the following words tell us that our first assumption was wrong—it’s a heavy vehicle. For correctlyfiguring out the error, we are rewarded with a pleasurable feeling. The joke is an efficient way of encouraging this natural reaction, and comedians have become experts in slightly touching this mental funny-bone in order to make us laugh.Ryan was right when he said that knowing the theory of humor wouldn’t help us that much as acomedy.During one exercise in the course, four of us were told to perform an opera. Susan and Caroline sang earnestly on either side of the stage, and I brought Henry to the floor, where we wrestled (摔跤) each other likeout-of-control teenagers. The rest of the group was in uncontrollable fits of laughter. As a performer, I’ ll neverappreciate just why it seemed so funny. But the point is that I would never have written this on the paper. It was a joyous, found moment.32.Why did the author attend the comedy course?A.He wanted to see how the theories worked in practice.B.He discovered he had some natural ability in comedy.C.He worried about how other performers would find him.D.He got unpleasant experiences when performing a comedy.33.Ryan required the people on the comedy course to .A. copy their favorite performanceB. imagine other people’ s reactionsC. help themselves feel comfortableD. behave in a more playful manner34.What is the purpose of the joke mentioned in Paragraph 4?A.To discuss what humor brings about exactly.B.To give an example of another kind of humor.C.To prove the point about psychology of humor.D.To show why some people are funnier than others.35.What view does the author put forward in the end?A.Visual humor is what appeals to people most.B.What people find funny is often unpredictable.C.Theories explaining humor tend to be mistaken.D.Learning comic skills proves to be a difficult task.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。

The holiday honors not only fathers, but also all men who act as father figures, su ch as stepfathers, uncles and grandfathers.The idea of Father’s Day came from the love and appreciation of American lady called Sonore Smart Dodd in 1909.Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart . He raised six children by himself on a countryside farm in a fter his wife died during the birth of their sixth child.When Dodd became an adult, she realized the selflessness h er father has shown in raising his children as a single parent.

He made millions of dollars by writing. His rea l name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better kno wn all over the world as Mark Twain, his penname.Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. Bu t with his mother’s care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all his friends and neighbors. He didn’t like to go to school, an d he often ran away from home. He always went in the directi on of the nearby Mississippi(密西西比河). He was nearly drowned nine times.After his father’s death, Mark Twain began to work for a printe r, who only provided him with food and clothing. Then, he worked as a printer, a river-boat pilot and later joined the army. But shortly after that he b ecame a miner. During this period, he started to write short st ories. Afterwards he became a full time writer.In 1870, Mark Twain got married. In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876, and Huckl eberry Finn in 1884, which made him famous, and brought hi m great fortune.Unfortunately, Mark Twain got into debts in bad investments(投资) and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts. In 1904, his wife died, and then three of his children pa ssed away.At the age of 70, his hair was completely white. He bought ma ny white suits and neckties. He wore nothing but white from h ead to foot until his death on April 21, 1910.11．In his childhood, Mark Twain, ________.A．learned a lot at schoolB．he often went swimming with other boysC．his mother often worried about his safetyD．he often played games with other boys12．Which of the following shows the right order about Mark Twain?a.

Every student in his or her second year of high school is r equired to take a class in the driver’s education. However, unli ke other courses, it is not given during the regular school year . Instead, it is a summer course. The course is divided up into two parts: class time for learning laws and regulations and dri ving time to practice driving. Class time is not unlike any other class. The students have a text from which they study the ba sic laws they must know to pass the written driving test that is given to anyone wanting to get a driver’s license.Driving time is a chance for the students to get behind the wh eel(steering wheel方向盘) and practice starting steering, backing up, parking, switchi ng lanes, turning corners and all the other maneuvers(操作) required to drive a car. Each student is required to drive a total of six hours. The students are divided up into groups of four. The students and the instructor go out driving for two hou r blocks of time. Thus, each student gets half an hour driving t ime per outing. The instructor and the “driver” sit in front of se at and the other three students sit in the back.Drivers Ed cars are unlike other cars in which they have two b rakes(刹车系统), one on the drive r’s side and one on the other side where t he instructor sits. Thus, if the student driver should run into dif ficulties the instructor can take over. The car also has another special feature. On the top of the car is a sign that reads: ST UDENT DRIVER. That lets nearby drivers know that they sho uld use extra caution(小心) because the student driver is a beginning driver, not very experienced and prone to driving slowly.After the student has passed the driver’s education course an d reached the proper age to drive ( this age differs in every st ate but in most cases the person must be 16 years old), they can go to a designed state office to take the driver’s test, whic h is made up of an eye examination, a written test, and a road test. The person must pass all three tests in order to be given a driver’s license. If the person does well in his or her driver’s education class, he or she will pass the test with flying colors and get a driver’s license.16. In , the driver’s course mentioned above______A. is considered as part of the advanced education.B. is given to anyone wanting to get a driver’s license.C. is carried on at the same time as other courses.D. is offered to all the students of Grade 2 in high schools.17.

Four interesting books in discount.BMatthew Layton was 20 minutes from home in Sevierville, Tennessee, on a cold November night in 2016 when he got a cell phone call from his mother. "The mountain’s on fire,” she screamed, “and Brian’s up there!”Layton’s family owned a dozen rental cabins(小屋) on Shields Mountain, and Layton’s friend and fellow rental-cabin owner, Brian McGee, age 56, was up there trying to put the fire out by himself. Layton, 32, hit the gas. He lived on the mountain too.Layton turned around and headed for a dirt road. He made it about halfway up the steep, winding path before his front-wheel-drive car gave up. He called McGee, who drove down in his pickup so they could fight the fire together.They headed first to Layton’s rental cabins. “I wanted to make sure our guests were gone. They were,” says Layton. At that point, he had a choice: try to save his cabins or rescue people renting other cabins nearby. “On the moun tain, you don't have many locals. They’re mostly tourists who don’t know their way around,” he says.Over the next two hours, the two friends drove through the smoky mountain, knockingon doors and leading panicked people to safety. “I know that mountain so well,” Layt on says, “I could drive and know exactly where I am just by time traveled.” Thanks to their brave and immediate action, the two helped 14 people out of the danger.Fourteen people died that night in SevierCounty. But the fire didn’t take away a single life on ShieldsMountain. And though his home and business were destroyed, Layton remains calm. “I wasn’t worried about my loss, not when I saw those families trapped on the mountain,” he says, “I knew I was gonna help them.”24. Where was Layton when the fire broke out?A. Visiting his mother.B. Away from his home.C. Heading for the cabins.D. Driving on a dirt road.25. What can we learn from Para.2-3?A. Layton’s car broke down halfway.B. Brian was in charge of Layton’s cabins.C. Layton picked up Brian on the path.D. Brian lived in the mountain alone.26. Why could the two friends rescue the people?A. They put out the fire before it spread.B. They turned to locals for help.C. Layton was familiar with the area.D. Brian gave up his own cabins.27. What did Layton mean in the last paragraph?A. He blamed himself.B. He suffered a lot.C. He was relieved.D. He felt sorry.CIf your friends are happy—turns out you’re more likely to be happy too. Ifyour friends are overweight, that too ups the chances you’ll gain weight. Those effects have been shown in studies. And now researchers have identified another seemingly contagious quality: exercise.The researchers analyzed the running activity of more than a million people worldwide who used an exercise tracking device(装置) for five years. And they used weather patterns as a way to randomly examine different parts of that global network.Cities have different weather patterns, Sinan Aral, a computational social scientist at MIT says, this experiment allowed them to ask: Does a rainy day in New York affect running in San Diego? “If the weather in New York causes changes in the running behavior in San Diego, it can really only be happening through the influences of the friends who live between New York and San Diego.”And that is exactly what he and his colleague saw: that the behavior of one city’s runners could indeed affect the behavior of runners in another socially connected city. Women tended to be influenced more by the female runners in their networks. And less active runners tended to influence more active runners to run more, but not so much the other way around.Still, this could be valuable for health professionals. “We have to start thinking about consumers and citizens as networked consumers and citizens. Where they are influenced by and influence their social network in very strong ways, that will change the way a particular intervention(干涉) succeeds or fails.”In other words—if your prescription is more exercise? The doctors might want to write a prescription for your friends and family, too.28. Which does the underlined word “contagious” in Para. 1 mean?A. Affected.B. Excellent.C. Beneficial.D. Different.29. What can we conclude from the experiment?A. Weather changes people’s feelings.B. People’s behaviour affects each other.C. Exercise has something to do with weather.D. P eople’sconnection depends on distance.30. What does “this” in Para. 5 refer to?A. Women are easier influenced by male runners.B. People in the same city affect each other more.C. Friends tend to influence each other in exercising.D. A rainy day in one cityaffects running in another.31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Think twice before running.B. More exercise benefits health.C. Weather patterns affect running behavior.D.Healthy behavior can spread like illness.DMany Americans think of driverless cars as a futuristic technology that will revolutionize travel in cities and along state highways. But recent experiments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have the potential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans underserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long as lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for innovation.A retirement community in San Jose, Calif. , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows the potential of self-driving cars to transform people’s lives. Built by a tech start-up called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limited to a two-mile road, but residents are already having the benefits of these autonomous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activities they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because they could not get to them.When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these residents—whose average age is 76—will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is easy to understand why California is moving to simplify regulations for the industry.In Michigan, forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden benefits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physical disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalition has strongly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, independentlives.Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future cannot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forced to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places like California and Michigan, and pass rules and regulations to unlock these hidden benefits of driverless cars.32. Wha t’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomous vehicles?A. Curious.B. Doubtful.C. Indifferent.D. Optimistic.33. What is the modified Ford Fusion?A. A kind of autonomous vehicle.B. A fleet of driverless taxis.C. A road for driverless cars.D. A retirement community.34. What are examples in California and Michigan to prove?A. Driverless cars’ disadvantages.B. Governments’ right decisions.C. Benefits to the aged and the disabled.D. The regulations are forward-thinking.35. What does the author attempt to inform us in the last paragraph?A. The benefits of driverless cars have been fully unlocked.B. Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technology.C. The concept of autonomous vehicles has been widely recognized.D. The weak groups are often overlooked despite technology advances.阅读附加题：Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness (荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warning. An avalanche (雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left DawsonCity as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go — to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City — its present population is 762.1. What attracted the early settlers to New York City?A. Its business culture.B. Its small population.C. Its geographical position.D. Its favourable climate.2. What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson?A. Two-thirds of them stayed there.B. One out of five people got rich.C. Almost everyone gave up.D. Half of them died.3. What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson?A. They found the city too crowded.B. They wanted to try their luck elsewhere.C. They were unable to stand the winter.D. They were short of food.4. What is the text mainly about?A. The rise and fall of a city.B. The gold rush in Canada.C. Journeys into the wilderness.D. Tourism in Dawson.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。
