The New York police have 170 horses working in certain parts of thecity. The horses are expensive to feed, but it is even expensive to look after them. Because the horses must walk on the streets, they need special horseshoes. In fact,they need more than 8,000 of them each year. Every police horse in New York gets new shoes every month. Keeping these shoes in good repair is the job of six blacksmiths. There are only about thirty-five of these blacksmiths in the whole Unite States.The cost of shoeing a horse is between twenty dollars and thirty-five dollars, andit takes a good blacksmith two or three hours to do the job.A blacksmith's job is not an easy one. He must be able to shape a shoe from a pieceof metal and then fit it to the horse's foot. The blacksmith must bend over all thetime when he is fitting the shoe and must hold the weight of the horse's leg whilehe works. But even more important, he must be able to deal with horses--for beforethe blacksmith can begin his work, he has to get the horse to lift its leg.One of the blacksmiths in New York is James Corbin. He came to the country from Ireland in 1948. He not only makes horseshoes for the police but also works for a group of horse owners near the city. Corbin became interested in blacksmithing becausehis father did it, and, as he puts it, "It's a good way to make a living."9. According to the reading passage, a blacksmith must be likely a_________ man.A. cleverB. richC. strongD. tall10. James Corbin became a blacksmith because he_________.A. was interested in horsesB. was needed by the policemenC. drew a picture of the horsesD. had to make a living11. In the reading passage "to shape a shoe" is to________.A. fit it on the horse's footB. use it for two or three hoursC. make the form of a horseshoe form a piece of metalD. draw a picture of the shoe12. The best title for the passage is_________.A. Policemen on HorsebackB. Blacksmiths and HorseshoeingC. James Corbin, a BlacksmithD. Horseshoeing Is a Good Way to Make a LivingDFor most of us, body weight goes up with age---an average of one pound a year after 25, according to the American Medical Association. What's more, added weight is likely to be composed primarily of fat, not muscle. The reasons are as follows.1) As we age, most of us become less active, and the body's basal metabolism (基础代谢) rate slows a little each year. So our food-energy requirements--the number of calories needed to maintain weight-decrease. For example, a man might require 2 500 calories a day at age 20, 2 000 at 35 and only 1 800 at 15.2) Starting in our 20s, the proportion of muscle mass to body fat tends to decline. The body of an average 20-year-old woman is 26.5 percent fat. By 35, it is 33 percent, at 50, 42 percent.3) As we grow older, we shrink-not from side to side, unfortunately, but from top to bottom. In our mid30s, we begin to lose more bone than we make. One result: less height to hang our weight on, which makes us look thicker than we once did.4) Exercising becomes harder with age. Our muscles can begin to lose strength and elasticity (弹性) as early as age 20. By 40, heart and lung power has begun to drop, and the body becomes more likely to be injured.13. What is the passage about?A. The mason why old people usually weigh more than they once did.B. The reason why added weight is likely to be composed primarily of fat, not muscle.C. The reason why we become less active when we age.D. The reason why our body weight goes up one pound a year after 25.14. What does the writer mean by "As we grow older, we shrink"?A. As we grow older, we become shorter.B. As we grow older, we become thinner.C .As we grow older, we become more depressed.D. As we grow older, we become more active.15. Why does exercising become harder with age?A. Our muscles are older and weaker.B. The possibility of injury increases.C. Heart and lung don't work as well as before.D. All of the above.16. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The body weight increases as one grows older.B. The basal metabolism rate of an active person is always very high.C. The food-energy requirement for one certain person is fixedD. We need less calories to maintain our weight as we grow older.EOne of the interesting things about Cuba is its educational system. As in many other countries, schools are free. What is unusual is that schools combine study with manual work. Each school has a plot (--:ffl~:) of land where the children work for each day. They plant vegetables, which they weed and water, and later they harvest the crops. In this way, they develop good working habits and learn how important it is to produce. Usually, children do not like vegetables such as spinach (菠菜), green beans, or cabbage. But by growing vegetables themselves, Cuban children soon develop a taste for them. During the summer, older children also go to the country to help the farmers with the crops.In this system, the children spend part of their school time studying and the rest working in the open air helping increase the nation's production.17. How is Cuba's educational system different from that of other countries?A. Schools are free.B. Schools force childen to work.C. Manual work is emphasized.D. Schools produce a lot of crops.18. How do Cuban children spend their school time?A. Fewer hours for classroom study than for manual work.B. Part of the classroom study and the rest for manual work.C. Half of the time studying and the other half working on the land.D. Most of the time studying and the rest playing in the open air.19. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?A. The nation's production is increased.B. Children go to the country to help the farmers with the crops once a year.C. Children enjoy working in the open air.D. Children grow less interested in study.20. What does the word "taste" mean here?A. A kind of senseB. LikingC. Ability to enjoy beautyD. Small quantityIV. 短文改错I used to love science class--all ofthem--biology, chemistry, geography,physics.

It was then that the dad of two realized his young daughter had a heart that was too big for words.“I run a charity called Extra Life where I play video games to help raise money for kids,” he said. “Ariana happened to be sittin g next to me when a video was playing, showing a little girl who was bald, lying in a hospital bed with tubes in her.” When their daughter got curious, Smith and his wife Crystal explained how medicine was what made the child in the video lose her hair.“Without a second thought, Ariana said, …She can have some of my hair,'” Smith said. “That's when my wife told me that there are many organizations that we could donate it to.” The Smiths chose “Locks of Love” to send Ariana's generous gift to a child with medical hair loss.A week later, Ariana was taken to the family hairdresser where 10 inches was cut from her hair.“It was her first haircut,” Smith told ABC News. “She can be so selfless like that. Her first reaction is …How about me giving up something th at I have, so a little girl can feel pretty?'” Smith posted his daughter's moving gesture on his personal webpage, where it has received almost 645,000 views in just two days.“She'll take an adult-like approach and it's really amazing,” Smith said. “She i s just a little kid, but if she sees somebody in need, she certainly cares for them.

The win made Wallace the second African-American driver in the history of NASCAR to win a race at the sport's top level.“We congratulate Darrell Wal lace Jr. on his first national series victory, one that will be remembered as a remarkable (不同寻常的) moment in our sport's history,” said Brian France, NASCAR chairman and CEO. “Darrell's success, following fellow NASCAR Drive for Diversity graduate Kyle Larson's win earlier this season, is indicative (表明) of a youth and multicultural movement that is a good sign for NASCAR's future growth.”Darrell Wallace Jr. was born October 8, 1993, in Mobile, Alabama. He got his start in NASCAR through the organization's Drive for Diversity program. It was created in 2004 to attract more women and nonwhite drivers and crew members to NASCAR events.Before Wallace's 2013 win, the only other black driver to win at NASCAR was Wendell Scott, in 1963. Unlike Wallace, however, Scott was not allowed to celebrate in the victory lane. Scott's sons, Wendell Scott Jr. and Franklin Scott, were in the stands when Wallace won in 2013. They say their father, who died in 1990, would be proud of Wallace's achievement. “When the checkered flag (赛车终点挥动的黑白方格旗) dropped, I heard a loud sound from heaven,” Franklin Scott said after the race.Only a couple of years out of high school himself, Wallace offered advice to a group of students before his historic win. “Find something you love to do in life,” he told them. “If you don't love it, find something else. Work hard for what you love.”28. Why did Brian France regard Wallace's win as a remarkable moment?A. Because he set a new world record for NASCAR.B. Because he was the youngest driver to win at NASCAR.C. Because he successfully invited more nonwhite drivers to NASCAR.D. Because he was the first black driver to win at NASCAR in 50 years.29. What can we learn about the Drive for Diversity program?A. It is developing slowly.B. It has a very long history.C. It was set up by Wendell Scott.。

Unit 4 Making the news单元检测Ⅰ.阅读理解AHave you winterized your horse yet? Even though global warming may have made our climate more mild, many animals are still hibernating (冬眠). It's too bad that humans can't hibernate. In fact, as a species, we almost did.Apparently, at times in the past, peasants in France liked a semi-state of human hibernation. So writes Graham Robb, a British scholar who has studied the sleeping habits of the French peasants. As soon as the weather turned cold, people all over France shut themselves away and practiced the forgotten art of doing nothing at all for months on end.In line with this, Jeff Warren, a producer at CBC Radio's The Current, tells us that the way we sleep has changed fundamentally since the invention of artificial (人造的) lighting and the electric bulb.When historians began studying texts of the Middle Ages, they noticed something referred to as "first sleep", which was not clarified, though. Now scientists are telling us our ancestors most likely slept in separate periods. The business of eight hours' uninterrupted sleep is a modern invention.In the past, without the artificial light of the city to bathe in, humans went to sleep when it became dark and then woke themselves around midnight. The late night period was known as "The Watch". It was when people actually kept watch against wild animals, although many of them simply moved around or visited family and neighbours.According to some sleep researchers, a short period of insomnia (失眠) at midnight is not a disorder. It is normal. Humans can experience another state of consciousness aroundtheir sleeping, which occurs in the brief period before we fall asleep or wake ourselves in the morning. This period can be an extraordinarily creative time for some people. The impressive inventor, Thomas Edison, used this state to hit upon manyof his new ideas.Playing with your sleep rhythms can be adventurous, as anxiety may set in. Medical science doesn't help much in this case. It offers us medicines for a full night's continuous sleep, which sounds natural; however, according to Warren's theory, it is really the opposite of what we need.1. The example of the French peasants shows the fact that ___________.A. people might become lazy as a result of too much sleepB. there were signs of hibernation in human sleeping habitsC. people tended to sleep more peacefully in cold weatherD. winter was a season for people to sleep for months on end2. The late night was called "The Watch" because it was a time for people __________.A. to set traps to catch animalsB. to wake up their family and neighboursC. to remind others of the timeD. to guard against possible dangers3. What does the author advise people to do?A. Sleep in the way animals do.B. Consult a doctor if they can't sleep.C. Follow their natural sleep rhythm.D. Keep to the eight-hour sleep pattern.4. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A. To give a prescription for insomnia.B. To urge people to sleep less.C. To analyze the sleep pattern of modern people.D. To throw new light on human sleep.BMike Miles hadn't had a stable job in years. He bounced around from one position to another, never sure when his last day would be. Sometimes, he lost a position with less than a day's notice. This wasn't due to a poor work ethic—from arriving early to staying late, Miles says he did everything he could to build a good relationshipwith employers. But because Miles had a criminal record, he was always cut loose when it came time to let staff go.It wasn't until October 2015, nearly a decade after his release from prison, that a cousin told Miles about Lancaster Food Company, a local business that focuses on hiring people released from prison. Hoping this would clear up what felt like a thick cloud of uncertainty over his future, Miles submitted an application. He got an interview, and he then began a new job.Miles' scenario is rare in Lancaster, where the poverty rate holds steady at 30%. This figure riled Charlie Crystle, Lancaster's co-founder and CEO. Crystle was raised in Lancaster but left in 1986 to purse a college degree and later, a career in technology. He co-founded four tech companies, one of which sold for millions of dollars back in 2000.Crystle is skeptical that many of Lancaster's low-income residents can get started the way he did. He believes food production is a key way to meet former offenders who may lack a college degree. Lancaster produces products like bread. Nowadays the company is rapidly expanding; however, at just 16 full-time employees, including administration and owners, it doesn't lower the city's poverty rate.Crystle says he wants to inspire other companies to rethink their current practices and start conversations around minimum wage and employment opportunities for everyone, including ex-offenders. Dan Jurman, who chairs the city's Commission to Combat Poverty, believes that Crystle's business is a great way to make this happen. "None of us can handle these issues alone, " he said.5. The purpose of the first paragraph is to show __________ .A. a man's difficulty in living a stable lifeB. an increasingly competitive workplaceC. a decrease in employment opportunitiesD. the reason why Lancaster Food Company was founded6. What does the underlined word "riled" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?A. Annoyed.B. Discouraged.C. Amused.D. Embarrassed.7. What words can best describe Charlie Crystle according to the text?A. Outgoing, kind and considerate.B. Wealthy but a little bit greedy.C. Humorous, diligent and ambitious.D. Successful and socially responsible.8. In Dan Jurman's opinion, what is the biggest achievement of Lancaster Food Company?A. It greatly increases employment opportunities.B. It suggests an idea for fighting poverty.C. It provides a way to handle ex-offenders.D. It creates a stable environment for people.Ⅱ.完形填空阅读下面的短文,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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

One night, Maceo left his home to find a store where she could buy a back staff cane (拐杖). He weighed over 300 pounds. His doctor, concerned about his health, had suggested Maceo try yoga (瑜伽). But Maceo could barely walk, needing to use a cane to get around. Z@#xxkHe entered what he thought was the right store---only to find black belts instead. He’d walked into the hall of the Rocky Mountain Karate Association. Hale Hilsabeck, owner and director of the studio, greeted him. Maceo told Hale he’d always wanted to learn karate (空手道), but was discouraged because of his weight. Hale told him to come back the next day to begin learning karate and boxing---free of charge.Maceo began training two to three times, a week. Hale was amazed by his determination. “I was enthusiastic because he kept on showing up.” he said, “I thought he mi ght disappear after the first couple or three times that he was there. But, no.”Now, over five years later, Maceo weighs 60 pounds less and no longer walks with a staff. He can dance and deliver powerful boxes. I called maceo to find out more. This all happened for a reason, he told me. Most of all, his faith was renewed, both in himself and in a higher power. Maceo’s story inspired me. Next time I ended up in a “wrong place”. Maybe I will stay there a minute longer---to see if that unexpected opportunity shows up.4. What’s Maceo’s problem?A. He didn’t buy a cane.B. He is too fat.C. He can’t walk at all.D. He doesn’t like yoga.5. Why hadn’t Maceo learnt karate before he met Hale?A. Because she hadn’t been interested in it.B. Because his doctor told him not to do it.C. Because it was very expensive.D. Because he hadn’t dared to try it.6. After Maceo began learning karate and boxing, .A. he give up three timesB. he didn’t exercise oftenC. he gained much benefits fr om themD. Hale wasn’t satisfied with him firstCAfter years of debate, gray wolves were reintroduced (重新引进) to Yellowstone National Park. Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and moved to the park. By 2021, the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170.Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and other pans of United States, but they were gradually displaced by human development. By the 1920s, wolves had disappeared from the Yellowstone area. They went farther north into (he deep forests of Canada, where there were fewer humans around. The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results. Deer and elk populations—major food sources(来源) for the wolf—grew rapidly. These animals ate large amounts of plants, which reduced plant diversity(多样性) in the park. With the disappearance of gray wolves,coyote (草原狼) populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a great number of red foxes in the park, and completely drove away the park’s beavers (河狸).As early as 1966, biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park. They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems. Many framers were against the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.The government spent nearly 30 years thinking lip a plan to reintroduce the wolves. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone. Today, the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone. Elk, deer, and coyote populations are down, while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback. The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.7. What is the text mainly about?A. Wildlife research in the United States.B. Plain diversity in the Yellowstone area.C. A war between American farmers and gray wolves.D. The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.8. What do cs the underlined word “displaced” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Killed one by one.B. Separated from relatives.C. Forced to move out.D. Followed secretly.9. Which is an unexpected result of the disappearance of gray wolves?A. The number of deer increased fast.B. More people moved into the park.C. Red foxes ate too many plants.D. Beavers in the park were all killed.10. Biologists suggested the government reintroduce the wolves because ________.A. they believed it could keep the park back to normalB. they knew the government was considering that tooC. they were sure it would solve the elk and coyote problemsD. they thought farmers needn’t worry about animals and petsVI.书面表达(满分25分).假定你是李华,计划本周末和同学一起去观看《经典咏流传》(Everlasting Classics)节目,得知外教Nancy也很感兴趣,请给她写一封邮件,邀请她一同参加。

Even if they never see their results, they feel that their IQ is 1 determines how well they are going to do in life. When they see other students doing 2 (good) than them, they usually believe that those students have 3 higher IQ and 4 there is nothing they can do to change facts. However, new research 5 EQ suggests that success is not simply result of a high IQ.While your IQ tells you how 6 (intelligence) you are, your EQ tells you how well you use your intelligence. Professor Salovery, 7 invented the term EQ, 8 (give) the following description: At work, it is IQ that gets you 9 (promote). Supported by his academic research, Professor Salovery suggests that when predicting someone’s future success, their character, 10 measured by EQ tests, might actually matter more than their IQ.III. 完形填空One cold night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco.There I was walking home around one o’clock in the morning after a 1 practice at the theatre. With the opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines by heart. I was having 2 handling my part-time job at the bank in the daytime and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about 3 both acting and San Francisco. I had 4 too much of city life.As I walked down the 5 streets under the tall buildings, I felt very small and cold, so I began 6 both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few homeless people under blankets.About a block from my 7 , I heard a sound behind me. I 8 quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me 9 ,so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I 10 what the noise had been. It had been my wallet 11 to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk 12 for 15 minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to quit the 13 , I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an 14 look in his eyes. “Is this what you’re looking for?” He asked, holding up a wallet.It was already 3 a.m. by the time I got int o bed. I couldn’t get much sleep, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some 15 of city life. I realized the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.1.A.comfortable B.serious C.tiresome D.fortunate 2.A.comfort B.desire C.pain D.trouble3.A.setting up B.giving up C.holding up D.picking up 4.A.expected B.changed C.controlled D.possessed 5.A.deserted B.crowded C.busy D.wild6.A.running B.jumping C.moving D.marching7.A.bank B.theatre C.apartment D.office8.A.stood B.walked C.turned D.left9.A.satisfied B.confused C.frightened D.annoyed10.

But now as grown-ups, some adults find they cannot leavechildhood behind. They become "kidults" (kid+adult). Being a kidult has become a lifestyle-choice among young people across Asia.Some kidults collect toys they once played with. Hello Kitty, Garfield, and Snoopy have many adult fans around the world. It is not unusual to see a 20-something woman with a big, Garfield-shaped cushion on her sofa or a Hello Kitty mobile phone accessory.Other kidults still enjoy children's stories and fairy tales. For example, Bloomsbury even published the Harry Potter novels with an adult cover. That way, no one else on the subway will know that an adult is actually reading a children's book!“Kidults can be like vitamins to society. Adults who value their childhood and hold on to pure, child-like emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society,” said Lee Sojung, professor of Foreign Studies at Hankuk University(韩国外国语大学). He added that kidult culture may fill the generation gap between adults and kids. It could give children and their parents books, movies, and cartoon shows to enjoy together. He may be right.Tim Greenhalgh, a professor, explained that some kidults just refuse to grow up. They value childhood because life in a busy and stressful city frightens them. Kidults would like to forget their age and openly show their fear of society and adulthood.1. We can infer from the article that _________.A. Kidults miss their childhood so much that they can't give up their toysB. Bloomsbury knows some kidults don't want people to know that they are kidultsC. Kidults like to have vitamins very muchD. Some toys are so interesting that even adults like them very much2. According to the author, being a kidult is good in some way except that _______.A. it can improve the relationship between parents and their kidsB. it can help kidults feel relaxedC. it is helpful to solve some social problemsD. it can make people loyal to one's parents3. According to the writer, _______.A. being a kidult is nothing wrongB. kidults have mental problemsC. our society is very dullD. some people can never grow upBNovember 17 is an important day for black cats in Italy. An animal rights group has named that day as “ Black Cat Day ” to stop the killing of thousands of the cats.Why do people hate this animal so much? It is because people believe black cats bring bad luck if you see them walking across your path.The black cat is just one of the symbols of superstition(迷信). You may already know that Western people don’t like the number 13.Besides knocking over a salt bottle,they also believe that walking under a ladder, opening an umbrella indoors and breaking a mirror can also bring bad luck.According to Andrew Mac skill.who works for Teens.British people believe it is unlucky to see one magpie(喜鹊).But two bring good luck.“In Britain,people like to have a horseshoe over the door.They believe it can bring good luck."Mac skill said.“But the horseshoe needs to be the right way up.The luck runs out if it is upside down.”In the US.people usually spit on a new baseball bat before using it for the first time.They think this can bring good luck.Also.it is believed that good spirits live in trees.So by knocking on anything made from wood,people can call upon those spirits for protection against.People in the US also believe there are devils in brooms(扫帚).So don’t lean a broom against a bed.The evil spirits will cast a spell on the bed.5. In Italy, people hate black cats because the people thinkA.an animal rights group try to protect them B.they walk on people’s pathC.“Black Cat Day”is a bad day D.it is unlucky to see them6. How many things that mean bad luck are mentioned in the second paragraph? A.4.B.5.C.6.D.7.7.

From this passage,we can infer thatA.many black cats are killed in Italy each yearB.all the people in the world hate the number of thirteenC.magpies are the symbol of good luck in BritainD.in the US, the things living in the trees can bring good luck9. What is the best title of this passage?A.Black Cat Day B.Western Superstition SymbolsC.Bad Luck and Good Luck D.Western People’s BeliefCI arrived late one night on a business trip, so I decided to have dinner in the hotel. As I was finishing my meal, an elderly couple came in to dine. They were holding hands and had lovely smiles on their faces. They sat three tables from me. I was amazed at the love they showed for each other. It seemed to strike home all the more, because it was shortly after ending a 20-year marriage and I still had pain in my heart.My waiter was also their waiter. As I paid my bill, I inquired as to what their bill was. He informed me, and I gave him $40 to pay their bill. He asked if I knew them and I told him "No, I just wanted to repay them for the love that they were showing to each other," and then I departed.The next day I entered the restaurant to dine before my departure. After I had been seated, the waiter who served me the night before told me that the strangest thing happened after I left the restaurant.When the elderly couple went to pay for their meal, they were informed that it had been paid. When they inquired who had done this, the hostess told them they had no idea who I was, just retelling what I said.The couples were amazed. They looked around, asked for the bill of two young couples who were seated together, paid their bill and departed, saying "Love begets Love" to the amazement of the hostess and waiter.I smiled and said "That's nice," and proceeded to order my meal.About 45 minutes later, I finished my meal and was about to head out, but my waiter was nowhere to be found. I waited and waited and finally walked over to the hostess stand and explainedthat I needed to pay for my meal and hurry to the airport. She smiled and explained that I would not have to pay for my meal, because both the waiter and she felt compelled to pay my bill due to the joy that was brought to the faces of the elderly couple and the amazement of the young couples.When I told her that they didn't have to do that, she said with a smile "Love begets Love."10.

Love me, love my dog.D.In the fall of 1985, I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later, I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopted and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic -- and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No.3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 8! Our home was a complete zoo -- a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each semester.The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree!I am not special, just single-minded. It always strikes me that when you're looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you're in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won't arrive in your life on one day. It's a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.15.

She wanted to remain a full-time housewife.D. She was too confused to make a correct choice.18. What does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph?A.

I had feltD. had I felt【答案】D【解析】答案:D 句中含有否定副词hardly,所以要部分倒装.第一句"I finally got the job I dreamed about."因为是got暗含是发生在过去.在"这"之前我从没感到这么高兴.表示是发生在过去的过去.故用过去完成时态.所以选D.最终,我得到了我梦想的工作.在我生命中,我几乎没有感到这么高兴过.熟悉各种倒装句型的情况,掌握表示否定含义的单词或短语.2.This book is said to be special which ____ many events not found in other history books.()A. writesB. coversC. printsD. reads【答案】B【解析】答案:B write写;which指the book,和write是被动关系,A是错的;cover 覆盖,涉及;print印刷;read读;根据句意和各个选项的含义可知答案,故选B.据说这本书很特别,它涉及在其它历史书中没有被发现的很多事件.本题考查动词词义的辨析,理解语境结合各个选项的含义答题.3.---Would you come to see me tomorrow?---_____________.()A.

Should Bob knowB. Had Bob knownC. Were Bob to knowD. Have Bob known【答案】B【解析】答案:B 考查虚拟语气.根据主句的时态wouldn't have helped可以判断本句是对过去时态的虚拟,所以条件句应该用过去完成时,本句中省略了if,所以had 提前,故答案选B.如果Bob了解真相,他根本就不会帮助她.虚拟语气在高考命题中不是重点,但是难点.考点常集中在含蓄条件句以及主语、宾语从句等特定句型中虚拟语气的使用上,因此考生应熟练掌握含蓄条件句中主从句的时态要求以及一些典型句型中虚拟语气的具体形式.16.________ that even people in the next room could hear him.()A. So loudly did he speakB. Such loudly did he speakC. So loudly he spokeD. Such loudly he spoke【答案】A【解析】答案:A 根据句意可知这里使用such/so…that…"如此…以至于…"句型,当such/so…位于句首时,其后的句子需倒装,故排除C、D两项.在此句型中用so修饰形容词或副词.故选A.他说话声音是如此大以致于甚至隔壁的人都能听见他的声音.本题考查such/so…that…这个句型的倒装句,注意区别so和such用法不同.17.Not until Mr. Smith came to China _______ what kind of a country she is.()A. did he knowB. he knewC. he didn't knowD. he could know【答案】A【解析】句意:直到斯密斯先生到了中国他才了解到中国是一个怎样的国家。

ALots of students know what a marathon(马拉松赛跑) is, but perha ps they don’t know what triathlon is. The triathlon is a sport that has three parts — swimming, bicycling and running. It is not an easy sport, but a man named Joe Salter is very good at it. A few months ago, he finished a special triathlon—he juggled(抛起接住) three balls all the time during the triathlon. That is to say, he kept on throwing and catching three balls while he was swimming, riding a bicycle and running.31-year-old Joe is from Florida, the USA. He loves juggling and he started at the age of 8. Joe did well in juggling. Later, he got the idea to do a triathlon and juggle at the same time to make it more fun. Many juggling fans laughed at his idea and thought it was just a joke. But Joe didn’t give up and he kept practicing it. Because of his hard work, he made it at last.Talking about his triathlon, Joe said swimming was the hardest part. “It was difficult and complex,” he said. “I basically only used my legs, so it took quite a lot of work. Also, swimming in open water made it a little harder. It was not like in a pool. ”1. According to the writer, the common triathlon ______.A. is a difficult sportB. is more famous than the marathonC. includes the three parts and jugglingD. includes the marathon and swimming2. Joe’s triathlon was spe cial because ______ during the triathlon.A. he picked up three ballsB. he played jugglingC. he carried his bicycle on his shoulderD. he threw away all his balls3. Many juggling fans thought Joe’s idea ______.A. could not be realizedB. should not be laughed atC. should be realized as soon as possibleD. could make triathlon more exciting4. The underlined part “made it” in the 2nd paragraph probably means “______”.A. forgotB. failedC. succeededD. leftB“BANG!” the do or caused a reverberation (回声). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and me on the other side.We were both in great anger. “Never set foot in this house again!” stormed father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I wandered aimlessly.A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.But now … I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened. I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise ap artment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.. I thought to myself: “Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?” In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps. All the lights were off except father’s. Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret. This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.The light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered, maybe… With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been.

The hope is that someone in outer space may be trying to get in touch with us. Scientists also have sent radio and television messages on spaceships travelling through space, on the chance that someone may be receptive to such messages.Scientists are using powerful radio telescopes to listen to signals from about 1,000 stars, all within 100 light ye ars of Earth. In addition, they scan the entire sky to “listen” for radio messages from more distant stars. Using a computer, they will be able to monitor more than eight channels at a time. Scientists are looking for any signal that stands out from the background noise.Of the 200 billion stars in the Milky Way Galaxy (银河星系), scientists find that five percent are like our sun. Perhaps half of them have a planet like Earth. Such a planet would be a reasonable distance from the star for temperatures to be right for the evolution (进化) of life. Based on the inhabitable (that can be lived in) planets in our Galaxy, most scientists agree that chances are likely that one or more of these planets support some life.However, many scientists wonder whether intelligent life exists on other planets. Some believe that twenty years of searching without any intelligible messages shows that no one is out there. They say that the evolution of intelligence comparable to ours is unlikely.Other scientists believe that our search hasn't been long enough to rule out the possibility that intelligent life exists in our Galaxy. Although our sun family is only about five billion years old, our Galaxy is about 20 billion years old. In that case, some scientists think that it is likely that civilization much more advanced than ours have developed. Perhaps these civilizations send us no signals, perhaps we have not recognized the signals they have sent us. If we hope to find intelligent life, these scientists believe that we have to keep looking.9.The first two paragraphs in the text are mainly about ________ scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets.A. whenB. whyC. whereD. how10.According to the text, how many planets in our Galaxy might be inhabitable?A. 5 billion.B. 10 billion.C. 15 billion.D. 200 billion.11.Why do some scientists think there might be more advanced civilizations on other planets?A. They are good at observing everything in the sky.B. Some planets in our Galaxy are much younger than Earth.C. They have been to some of the other planets in our Galaxy.D. Some planets in our Galaxy are much older than Earth.12.It can be learned from the text that ________.A. the sun is one of the oldest planets in our GalaxyB. some scientists think that we should continue the searchC. scientists don't believe that there might be life on other planetsD. most scientists believe that there is intelligent life on other planetsDIf you're ever apart from your children, a new study says just talking on the phone will help just as much as a hug.If you're a parent who spends long hours on the job, you probably feel sorry for spending so much time away from your kids. But the results of a new study show that a mother's voice alone can be just as comforting to an anxious child as physical contact .In an experiment, researchers from the University of Wisconsin Madison asked a group of girls between the ages of 7 and 12 to solve math problems in front of judges — a stressful situation for anyone. Before the girls were set to give their answers, the researchers measured their levels of two hormones (荷尔蒙): cortisol, which goes up during stressful periods, and oxytocin, the "love" hormone, which goes down at the same time.After the girls finished the problems, some of them got to meet up with their mothers right away. The moms came in and hugged the girls. Another group of the girls didn't see their mothers, but received phone calls from them, in which their mothers told them how well they'd done. The final group had no contact with their mothers, but instead watched an animal movie, March of the Penguins.Finally, the girls' hormone levels were measured again. Although the movie was interesting, it did nothing to reduce the children's anxiety — but, surprisingly, both the physical contact and phone calls from their mothers had the same effect on reducing the girls' stress levels.So, no matter how old you are, if you're feeling stressed about something in your life, a phone call to Mom might be just the key to help you feel better.13. If a girl is under stress, .A. she can't solve math problemsB. she will have high levels of hormoneC. oxytocin will remain at a high levelD. cortisol will go up with oxytocin down14. From the passage, we can infer that .A. it is easy for girls to solve math problemsB. the girls who had watched the movie remained anxiousC. mothers should hug their kids as often as possibleD. older girls have higher cortisol than younger ones15. What's the main idea of the passage?A. Mother's voice can comfort her anxious kids.B. Mothers should often hug their kids.C. Mothers should spend enough time caring about their kids.D. Scientists discovered why kids become stressed when having tests.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

In fact, he's one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.Your reporter gave me a copy of his resume (简历)and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues (问题), approaches them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. I'm sure you would hate to lose him. Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He said he has a great assignment (分工), and you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you've given him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.So why is he looking for a way out?He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, where it can be played, and what the budget is.He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he's doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down andinside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for your paper. That's what you want for him, too, isn't it?So your reporter has set me thinking.Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists—everyone—is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. If we can't do it, they'll find someone who can.36. What does the writer think of the reporter?A. Optimistic.B. Imaginative.C. Ambitious.D. Proud.37. What does the reporter want most from hiseditors in their talks?A. Finding the new value of his stories.B. Giving him financial support.C. Helping him to find issues.D. Improving his good ideas.38. Who probably wrote the letter?A. An editor.B. An artist.C. A reporter.D. A reader.39. The letter aims to remind editors that they should__________.A. keep their best reporters at all costsB. give more freedom to their reportersC. be aware of their reporters' professionaldevelopmentD. appreciate their reporters' working styles andattitudesBBrave Frenchman Found Half-way Around theWorld(NEW YORK)A French tourist highly praised for rescuing a two-year-old girl in Manhattan said he didn’t think twice before diving into the freezing East River.Tuesday’s Daily News said 29-year who left the spot quickly after the rescue last Saturday.He lifted the little girl out of the water after she fell off the bank at the South Street Scaport museum. He handed the girl to her father, David Anderson, who had dive in after him.“I didn’t think at all,”Duret told the Daily News. “It happened very fast. I reacted very fast.”Duret, an engineer on vacation, was walking with his girlfriend along the pier(码头)when he saw something falling into the water. He thought it was a doll, but realized it was a child when he approached the river. In an instant, he took off his coat and jumped into the water.When he reached the girl, she appeared lifeless, he said. Fortunately, when she was out of the water, she opened her eyes.Anderson said his daughter slipped off the bank when he was adjusting his camera. An ambulance came later for her, said Duret, who was handed dry clothes from onlookers. Duret caught a taxi with his girlfriend shortly after.The rescue happened on the day before he left for France. Duret said he didn’t realize his tale of heroism, and had greatly moved New York until he was leaving the next morning.“I don’t really think I’m a hero,”said Duret.“Anyone would do the same thing.”40. Why was Duret in New York?A. To meet his girlfriend.B. To work as an engineer.C. To spend his holiday.D. To visit the Andersons.41. What did Duret do shortly after the ambulancecame?A.

The day when he rescued the girl.B. A couple of days after the girl was rescued.C. The first day when he was in New York.D. The same day when he was interviewed.CWho says Americans worship the almighty dollar?It's not true. Having enough free time is more important to most Americans than being rich, according to a new poll.Only 13 percent of more than 2,400 people questioned in the telephone poll ranked beingwealthy as most important to them, while 67 percent ranked free time as their top priority, higher than having a successful career, getting married, and having children. "Everyone wants free time to do the things they want to do, young, middle-aged or old," said Richard Morin, of the Pew Social & Demographic Trends Project, which conducted the survey. "So our desire to play unites us. "The poll also showed that people who were university educated valued career success over wealth, so did middle-aged people. Not surprisingly, those who didn't have money, ranked wealth very highly. This included minorities, first generation Americans and less educated people. The survey also revealed that a disproportionate(不成比例的)number of people under the age of 30 and retirees in the group made $20,000 or less a year. But the emphasis on wealth lessens with age, with younger people putting value on it but hardly any seniors. "It just diminishes with time as the reality sets in that you would never be rich," Morin said. "But also, the reality sets in that you don't have to be rich to lead a very comfortable and fulfilling life. "While wealth was not at the top of people's list of priorities, 43 percent still said it was somewhat important.44. The poll showed that the majority of Americanpeople ranked ________ as the most important.A. wealthB. a successful careerC. marriageD. free time45. Who cares least for wealth, according to thepassage?A. Young people.B. Middle-aged people.C. Old people.D. Well-educated people.46. According to the poll, middle-aged peopleregarded ______ as more important.A. success in careerB. education levelC. wealthD. comfort47. The underlined word "diminishes" in the thirdparagraph probably means __________.A. increasesB. decreasesC. changesD. staysDResearchers, policy makers and activists are busy preparing for the International AIDS Conference. The next conference begins Sunday in Vienna, Austria. On Tuesday, the Obama administration announced its National HIV/AIDS Strategy. The plan aims to reduce new HIV infections by twenty-five percent within five years. It also aims to make sure infected patients get treatment more quickly.HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. The government says sixty-five percent of Americans who discover they are infected get treatment within three months. The new plan calls for increasing that to eighty-five percent. Thirty million dollars from the health care reform law is to go to support prevention activities, including expanded HIV testing.Over one million Americans are living with the virus, out of an estimated thirty-three million people worldwide.Last week, government scientists in the United States announced the discovery of two antibodies (抗体)that raise hopes for an AIDS vaccine(疫苗). They say these antibodies can stop more than ninety percent of all known strains of HIV. Antibodies are proteins that the body makes to help protect itself against infection. Researchers made the discovery at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. The director of its Vaccine Research Center, Gary Nabel, says each antibody blocks the virus from attaching to white blood cells.The UN AIDS agency gives credit to proper measures. It says young people in Africa are waiting longer to have sex. They are also having fewer sexual partners. And they are increasingly using condoms(安全套). The agency says with the methods HIV rates are falling in sixteen of the twenty-five hardest-hit countries in Africa.48. All of the following about the Obamaadministration’s National HIV Strategy is true EXCEPT __________.A. It aims to cut down the number of newinfections on a large scaleB. It aims to put 65% of infected Americans intothe quick treatment systemC. It ensures the quick treatment of the Americanswho get infectedD. It supports prevention activities, includingexpanded HIV testing49. Americans suffering from HIV make up about__________ of all the people living with the virusworldwide.A. 1 / 10B. 1 / 20C. 1 / 30D. 1 / 4050. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The preventive measures and its result inAfrica.B. The appropriate age to sex in Africa.C. The legal number of sexual partners in Africa.D. The proper ways of using condoms.Ⅳ.单词拼写(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分) 51. The police __________ (控告)him of bribingothers.52. While visiting Xi’an, he __________ (拍照)manyancient soldier statues.53.
