When the studio didn't want me for the film-it wanted somebody as well known as Paul-he stood up for me.I don't know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft (技艺)and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors:humorous,aggressive,and making fun of each other-but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core (核心)of our relationship off the screen.We shared the belief that if you're fortunate enough to have success,you should put something back-he with his Newman's Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn't see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.I last saw him a few months ago. He'd been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal was, and we didn't talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn't need a lot of words.24.Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to the author at first?A. Paul Newman wanted it.B. The studio powers didn't like his agent.C. He wasn't famous enough.D. The director remended someone else.25.Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?A. They were of the same age.B. They worked in the same theater.C. They were both good actors.D. They had similar characteristics.26.What does the underlined word "that" in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Their belief.B. Their care for children.C. Their success.D. Their support for each other.27.What is the author's purpose in writing the test?A. To show his love of films.B. To remember a friend.C. To introduce a new movie.D. To share his acting experience.CAs you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now!With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future. You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine!Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you.Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. You will probably want to be independent. But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself. Yourfamily have been with you since you came into this world.It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens. This period is part of the life cycle. There are some people who will be with you throughout lifeˈs journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again.You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices. So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely!28.The best title for this passage would be ________.A. The Choices in LifeB. The Key to SuccessC. Say Goodbye to the PastD. Being a Young Adult29.Who do the underlined words “some people” (Paragraph 4)probably mean?A. your parentsB. your classmatesC. true friendsD. your relatives30.As far as the author is concerned, teenage years are___.A. a period of plete freedomB. too hard for young people to get throughC. an important time for the young to make the right choicesD. a very important period for young students to leave their parents31.Who is the passage mainly intended for?A. Teenagers.B. Teachers.C. Young parentsD. Adults.DReading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website BookCrossing. BookCrossing. turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing bines both. ”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E﹣mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back tothe“real”and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty﹣five countries.32.Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A. To explain what they are.B.

A Website Links People through Books.第二节(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15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。
2018-2019学年上海市控江中学高二上学期期中考试英语试题(Word版)
2018-2019 杨浦区控江中学高二英语第一学期期中试卷Section A(20’)Directions:After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.(A)Physed (physical education) is making a comeback as a part of the school core curriculum(核心课程),but with a difference. While group sports are still part of the curriculum, the new way is (21)(teach) skills that are useful beyond gym class. Instead of learning how to climb a rope, children are taught to lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance(忍耐力). In this way,kids are given the tools and skills and experiences (22)they can lead a physically active life for the rest of their life.(23)(consider) that 15 percent of American children aged 6 to 18 are overweight, supporters say more money and thought(24)be put into physed curriculum. In many cases, that may mean not just replacing the old gym-class model with fitness programs but also (25)(start) up physed programs (26)school boards often “put P.E. on the chopping block (砧板), cutting (27)entirely or decreasing its teachers or the days it is offered,” says Alicia Moag-Stahlberg, the executive director of Action for Health Kids. The difference in physed programs is partly due to the lack of (28)national standard.“Physical education needs to be part of the core curriculum,” she added.The wisdom of the new approach has some scientific support. Researchers at the University of Wisconsin have showed (29)effective the fit-for-life model of gym class can be. They observed how 50 overweight children lost more weight when they cycled and skied cross-country (越野) (30)when they played sports. The researchers also found that teaching sports like football resulted in less overall movement, partly because some reluctant students were able to sit on the bench.【答案】21. to teach 26. because 22. so that23.Considering24.must/should27.it28.a29.how25.starting30. than(B)The problem with much mobile technology is that it’s not really designed to be used while you’re actually mobile. The human brain can only pay attention to about three things at a time –and concentrate effectively on just one of them. Even though the consequences of smartphone distraction are sometimes (31) _____ (amuse), they can also be serious.The number of children (32) _____ (admit) to hospitals after accidents in public playgrounds climbed by about a third in five years, according to NHS data. Experts in both Britain and the US, (33)_____ a similar rise has occurred suggest some of the increase may be a result of parents being too distracted by their phones (34) _____ (take) care of their children properly.And now (35)comes evidence showing that 11-year-old children are three times more likely to be hurt or seriously injured on the way to and from school than 10-year-olds, since 11 is the average age (36)children receive their first mobile phone, six times (37) _____ (likely) to be sending a text when it happens.A quarter of children surveyed admitted that they (38)(distract) by personal technology (39)crossing the road. “There is,” the report concluded, “a clear connection (40) _____ the use of technology and the time of serious accidents with children.”【答案】31. amusing32. admitted33. where34. to take35. comes36. at which37. more likely38. had been distracted39. while/when40. betweenSection BDirections: Complete the passage with the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.English has become the dominant language for worldwide communication business. For many people this is a convenience. Increased use of English is regarded as a(an)41that simply developed gradually over time. Others see the use of English quite42. For them, it is a form of economic, social and political domination and control. It is, they argue, a form of imperialism(帝国主义).If English were used only for diplomacy, probably few would43. But it is used for more than international relations. Because the use of English and other world languages is so widespread, especially in schools, the worry is that languages with fewer speakers will be44. Over several generations, the most useful language45the others.Are there ways for speakers of other languages, particularly “minor” languages, to oppose the domination of “major” world languages if they so choose? One kind of46is to work with others to see that local languages are taught in schools. Perhaps there can be meetings of speakers in the same way that there have been summits for major languages such as Arabic, French, and Spanish. In order to47linguistic, economic and political cooperation, the French-speaking countries set up an international organization,much like the British Common-wealth. These are all ways to deal with a perceived threat of cultural uniformity. Groups cope with this threat by working together.However, the difficulties faced by minority languages are quite different from those faced by languages such as French. French is a major language that is losing speakers, but minority languages are on the48of disappearing completely. Linguicide(语言灭绝), some people argue, is the49of ethnocide(种族文化灭绝), the death of a culture, and that has typically been a tool of colonization( 殖民地化). The loss of a minority language can make a community feel like it’s been taken over by others. The dangers to minority language do not come from English alone. Around the world minority languages are50by both local and international events.【答案】41-45 J B K I A46-50 F D C H GIII.Reading Comprehensionsection A (15 分)Directions: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Learning to live as friendsThe human race seems to be faced with a crisis after ourbest go players were defeated one by one by the artificialintelligence (AI) Alpha Go, We lost our pride of being at thetop of the intelligence chain. And in October when SaudiArabia gave citizenship to a robot named Sophia anotherprivilege of being human was taken away. It looks like every sing that separates humans and AI is at risk.But we keep hoping that instead of “everything ”,there’s still something left in us that makes us irreplaceable.To Hao Jingfang,winner of the 2016 Hugo Award for Best Novelette,that “something” is our consciousness.“AlphaGo is intelligent in a certain way , but not intelligent enough to ask the important questions – Do I like playing Co? Do I want to play Go today? Why do I have to play Go when you tell me to?” she once said.In other words,computer programs don’t have a choice to say “no”.They probably don’t even know what a “choice” is – all they ever do is calculate. And to He Huaihong,a philosophy professor at Peking University,imagination andcreativityare also what make us special. A machine couldn’t have come up with the theory of gravity just because it was hit by a falling apple,he said.It’s human imagination that connects what seem to be completely random and irrelevant concepts,something that a machine—which works by fixed rules only—can't do,at least for now.This is why BBC reporter Viktor Mayer-Schonberger suggested that instead of focusing on how computers have overshadowed us on calculating abilities than humans,we should probably “consider ou r quality at a different end of the spectrum(光谱):creativity,originality,even plain illogical craziness,instead of hard-nosed(顽固的)logic”,he wrote.So maybe in the future,as artificial intelligence becomes even more intelligent,humans and A1 will learn to u se each other’s talents for good.If AI can handle the boring tasks like calculating and driving for us,we’11 have more time to create,think,and be busy with “being human”.66.According to Hao Jingfang,AlphaGo______.A.It will be taught to say no in the future.B.It will be more intelligent than humans one day.C.It has difficulty answering personal questions.D.It is unable to think independently as humans do.67.What does He Huaihong believe is unique to humans?A.Intelligence. B.Originality. C.The ability to make rules.D.The ability to make choices.68.What does the underlined word “overshadowed”in paragraph 5 probably mean?A.Competed with B.Taken control of C.Been more successful than D.Influenced 69.What could be the future of AI according to the author?A.It will be used to help humans,rather than compete with us.B.It may develop creativity besides better logical thinking.C.It might be very dangerous to humans in different fields.D.It will be applied to provide driving service for humans.【答案】66-69 D B C A(B)Forget Cyclists,Pedestrians are Real DangerWe are having a debate about this topic.Here are some letters from our readers.■Yes , many cyclists behave dangerously . Many drivers are disrespectful of cyclists . But pedestrians are probably the worse offenders.People of all ages happily walk along the pavement with eyes and hands glued to the mobile phone,quite unaware of what is going on around them.They may even do the same thing while crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing or elsewhere.The rest of us have to evade (避让) them or just stand still to wait for the unavoidable collision.The real problem is that some pedestrians seem to be,at least for the moment,in worlds of their own that are,to them,much more important than the welfare of others.--Michael Horan ■I love the letter from Bob Brooks about cyclists(Viewpoints,May 29).I am afraid they seem to think they own the roads.I was walking across Altrincham Road one morning when a cyclist went round me and on being asked what he was doing he shouted at me.The government built a cycle lane on the road but it is hardly used.The police do nothing.What a laugh they are!The cyclists should all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets ,fluorescent (发荧光的) jacket and lights at night and in the morning they should pay some sort of tax and be fined for not wearing them.--Carol Harvey ■Cyclists jump on and off pavements (which are meant for pedestrians),ride at speed along the pavements,and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red. I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the pavement when there was a cyclelane right next to him.Other road users,including horse riders,manage to obey the rules so why not cyclists?It's about time they had to be registered and insured , so when they do hit a pedestrian or a vehicle,or cause an accident,at least they can be treated and there might be an opportunity to claim.--JML Write to Viewpoints of the newspaper..70.Michael Horan wrote the letter mainly to show that_____A.drivers should be polite to cyclists B.road accidents can actually be avoidedC.some pedestrians are a threat to road safety D.walking while using phones hurts one's eyes 71.Carol Harvey suggests that cyclists should______.A.be provided with enough roads B.be asked to ride on their own lanesC.be made to pay less tax for cycling D.be fined for laughing at policemen72.What is a complaint of JML?A.Very few drivers are insured.B.Cyclists ride fast on pavements.C.Pedestrians go through red traffic lights. D.Horse riders disrespect other roadusers.73.The three letters present viewpoints on______.A.real source of road danger B.ways to improve road facilitiesC.measures to punish road offences D.increased awareness of road rules.【答案】70-73 CDBA(C)Hepburn and Givenchy: a Fashion Love StoryParis was already the fashion capital of the world by the 1950’s.It was the home of Coco Chanel, the revolutionary designer who was popular for wearing her string of pearls. It was a center for artists from all walks of life. Hubert de Givenchy, an unknown designer in his twenties, opened his first house in Paris in February 1952. Little did he know that a new year later, his life would change after meeting a girl named Audrey Hepburn.Hepburn, fresh from success of her fit film Roman Holiday, was on journey to Paris in the summer of 1953. She was there to purchase French clothing for her upcoming film Sabrina (《龙凤配》). Having heard of Givenchy’s modern designs, the 24 hour-year-old actress soon scheduled a visit to his house.When the designer heard that a movie actress with the surname Hepburn was due to pay hima visit, he assumed that he would be meeting Katharine, the Hollywood legend. He was confusedwhen a girl appeared at his door with large, attractive eyes and wearing a plain stripped T-shirt and trousers. Givenchy was busy preparing for his fall presentation, so he told Hepburn that he had no time to design a wardrobe (全部服装)for Sabrina.Despite being turned down, Hepburn would not give up. She invited him to dinner, whichwas unusual for a woman to do back then. Givenchy accept her call and it was at dinner that he was taken by her charm.Their fruitful professional and lifelong personal friendship began.For the next four decades, Hepburn wore Givenchy with great devotion. Most famously, in the opening scene of Breakfast at Tiffany’s, she wore a “little black dress” made out of silk when having a croissant(羊角面包)outside Tiffany’s window of Fifth avenue.The dress is said to be one of the most famous and influential pieces of 20th century.Many designers have a muse (灵感的源泉), but the Hepburn-Givenchy relationship was something more symbiotic. With Hepburn at his muse, Givenchy drew inspiration for his designs from her slender body, elegance and movie star charm. On the other hand, Hepburn was so fascinated by Givenchy’s work that she kept loyal to him over the years. Most of her casual wear was designed by Givenchy as well.It may not be a traditional love story, but love may come in different forms. For Hepburn and Givenchy, the friendship endured the test of time because of their respect for each other., fueled by the two things they loved: fashion and the movies.74.According to the article, it was in the early 1950s that Herbert de Givenchy ______________.A. Rose to fame with Coco ChannelB. started his own business in ParisC.met Katharine Hepburn for the first timeD. designed the wardrobe for Roman Holiday75.Which words best describe Audrey Hepburn when she first met Givenchy?A. Good-looking and persistentB. attractive and nervousC.Bad tempered and stubbornD. Ordinary and shy76.The underlined word in the 6th paragraph probably describes a relationship between people who ______________.A. Take advantage of each otherB. are totally different from each otherC.Knownothing about each other D. depend on each other equally77.According to the article, Givenchy formed a lifelong friendship with Hepburn mainly because ______________.A. he was taken by her charmB. she served as his museC. they had common interestD. they cared for each other【答案】74-77BADC(D)A new survey by Harvard University finds more than two-thirds of young Americans disapprove of President Trump’s use of Twitter The implication is that Millennials(千禧一代)prefer news from the White House to be filtered(过滤)through other source, not a president’s social media platform.Most Americans rely on social media to check daily headlines. Yet as distrust has risen toward all media, people may be starting to beef up their media literacy skills Such a trend is badly needed. During the 2016 presidential campaign, nearly a quarter of web content shared by Twitter users in the politically critical state of Michigan was fake news, according to the University of Oxford And a survey conducted for Buzz Feed News found 44 percent of Facebook users rarely or never trust news from the media giant.Young people who are digital natives are indeed becoming more skillful at separating fact from fiction in cyberspace.A Knight Foundation focus-group survey of young people between ages 14and24 found they use “distributed trust”(分布式信任)to verify stories They cross-check sources and prefer news from different perspectives—especially those that are open about any bias “Many young peo ple assume a great deal of personal responsibility for educating themselves and actively seeking out opposing viewpoints,” the survey concluded.Such active research can have another effect A 2014 survey conducted in Australia,Britain,and the United States by the University of Wisconsin-Madison found that young people’s reliance on social media led to greater political engagement.Social media allows users to experience news events more intimately and immediately while also permitting them to re-share news as a projection of their values and interests.This forces users to be more conscious of their role in passing along information A survey by Barna research group found the top reason given by Americans for the fake news phenomenon is”reader error,” more so than made-up stories or factual mistakes in reporting About a third say the problem of fake news lies in “misinterpretation or exaggeration(夸张)of actual news” via social media In other words, the choice to share news on social media may be the heart of the issue “This indicates there is a real personal responsibility in counteracting(抵消)this problem,” says Roxanne Stone, editor inchief at Barna Group.So when young people are critical of an over-tweeting president, they reveal a mental discipline in thinking skills – and in their choices on when to share on social media.78.According to the Paragraphs 1 and 2, many young Americans cast doubts on_________.A.the justification of the news-filtering practiceB.people’s preference for social media platformsC.the administrations ability to handle informationD.social media was a reliable source of news79.The underlined word in paragraph 2 probably means _________.A. strengthenB.boastC.defineD.share80.According to the knight foundation survey, young people __________.A.tend to voice their opinions in cyberspaceB.check news by referring to diverse resourcesC.have s strong sense of responsibilityD.like to exchange views on “distributed trust”81.The Barna survey found that a main cause for the fake news problem is __________.A. readers outdated valuesB. journalists’ biased reportingC. readers’misinterpretation D. journalists’ made-up stories82.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A.A Rise in Critical Skills for Sharing News OnlineB.A Counteraction Against the Over-tweeting TrendC.The Accumulation of Mutual Trust on Social MediaD.The Platforms for Projection of Personal Interests【答案】78-82 DABCASection C (8%)Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. For me, this has struck home (触及痛处).B. for in its best form, this kind of travel has very little impact, or indeed has a positive effect, on the environments where it takes place.C. In doing so we are therefore assured of decreasing our impact on the delicate environments.D. And the incident is probably the result of a terrible systemic failure.E. The feeling was that of complete disregard (漠视)for the bear and the environment in which it lived.F. This is not something that is taken lightly.Should Ecotourism Be AllowedThe image was shocking, and the response was entirely predictable. The sight of a polar bear lying stricken (受严重侵害的)on a beach --blood matting the fur of its neck, with one huge paw folded under its body -- received immediate criticism globally. By the shore in the background stand a group of guides, talking to each other. One of them had a rifle hanging casually on his shoulder. ________83__________. The reality, however, is considerably more complex.This powerful image has thrown into question the motivation for this kind of tourism, or ecotourism. Should we be in these environments at all?Are there regions in the world where nature should be left completely untouched? Does our proximity ( 接近)to large animals in the wild, frequently fuelled by a desire for sensational images, lead to such animals becoming accustomed to human contact? If that is the case, surely the losing side will end up paying the ultimate price for such proximity.Before answering these questions, we should first consider the incident that has caught global attention. _______84________. I have recently returned from a trip to Svalbard(斯瓦尔巴群岛), and indeed stood two weeks ago on the very beach where the bear was shot.To put it simply, the bear's death should never have happened. _______85____________. Was the beach examined from the ship offshore beforehand? Were the clients themselves closely supervised to prevent one becoming isolated? Was there access to flares (照明弹)to scare off a bear that appeared suddenly? These are standard measures for any respected operator.Nevertheless, the image and the incident should not be used to criticize the concept of ecotourism, _______86_______. This can be by making financial donations to conservationgroups, providing income to local communities, or ensuring protection of certain areas or animals. In the case of Svalbard, visitors often become ambassadors for the endangered polar bear, increasing awareness of the fact that the far greater danger facing them is the recession (后退)of ice in the Arctic Ocean.Ecotourism is an expanding market that brings benefits as well as challenges to the regions around the world in which it operates. Simply closing off these regions is not the answer. The key is responsibility and research before booking. When ecotourism is conducted correctly, the benefits are direct, immediate and long-lasting.【答案】E A D BIV. SummaryDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Marathons can be bad for your health, scientists have warned after a study found 80 per cent of competitors suffer kidney(肾) injury because of dehydration(脱水).Researchers said that although the kidneys of the participants in the 26.2 mile race fully recovered within two days, their findings raise questions concerning the potential long-term impact at a time when marathons are increasing in popularity.The findings were published by the American Journal of Kidney Diseases, as thousands of people prepare for next month's London Marathon.Previous research has shown that engaging in unusually vigorous activities - such as military training - in warm climates can damage the kidneys, but little is known about the effects of marathon running.A team of researchers led by Professor Chirag Parikh, of Yale University in the US, studied a small group of participants in the 2015 Hartford Marathon.They collected blood and urine( 尿液 ) samples before and after the event. They analysed a variety of markers of kidney injury, including serum creatinine levels, kidney cells on microscopy, and proteins in urine.The researchers found that 82 per cent of the runners that were studied showed Stage 1 AcuteKidney Injury (AKI) soon after the race. AKI is a condition in which the kidneys fail to filter waste from the blood.Prof Parikh said: "The kidney responds to the physical stress of marathon running as if it's injured, in a way that's similar to what happens in hospitalised patients when the kidney is affected by medical and surgical complications(并发症)."The researchers stated that potential causes of the marathon-related kidney damage could be the sustained rise in core body temperature, dehydration, or decreased blood flow to the kidneys that occur during a marathon.While the measured kidney injury resolved within two days of running the marathon, the researchers said the study still raises questions about the effects of repeated strenuous( 剧烈的 ) activity over time, especially in warm climates.【答案】Researchers of Yale University found marathon might cause kidney injury. The analysis of blood and urine samples shows most runners’ kidneys can’t filter waste very well within two days after the race. The rise in core body temperature, dehydration, or decreased blood flow may account for the problem. The finding raises concern about excessive vigorous activities in warm climate.I. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.88.科学家们提议通过使用先进技术是灭绝的动物复活,但他们遭到巨大的挑战。

The man in the Mercury(水星) capsule(宇宙飞行容器)was alone, but friendly voices reached him by radio. On the dark land 100 miles below, he saw a sprinkling of light. They marked the city of Perth, where people had turned on their lights as a greeting to him.In Friendship7, Glenn radioed, “The lights show up very well. Thank for everybody for turning them on.” His capsule raced on to the east.During his three orbits of the earth, Glenn could always reach one of eighteen tracking stations. Some of them were on ship at sea. Others were in the United States.Many of the stations had been built with the help of other countries. These countries allowed Americans to bring in radio equipment and set it up. Without the help of such lands as Nigeria(尼日利亚), Zanzibar(尚巴西,坦桑尼亚领土的一部分), and Mexico, there would have been breaks in the worldwide radio network.John H. Glenn. Jr., was the first America to orbit the earth. For his flight, the tracking network(跟踪网络) covered 60,000 route miles. Five hundred men worked in the stations al ong the route. Since his flight, the network has grown. Today, it covers more than 100,000 route miles and has about one hundred stations. One-third of these stations are outside of the United States.26.This passage is mainly about .A.talking to ships at sea around the worldB. a satellite which fell intothe oceanC.the first American to orbit the earthD. breaks in the worldwidenetwork27.

Countries must work together to track satellites.B. Nobody has orbited the earth besides Glenn.C. The tracking network covers many more route miles now than before.D. There are now about 70 tracking stations in the United States.Thomas Edison was one of ten said to be the greatest genius of his age. There are only a few men in all of the history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be happy only because someone said he was a genius. “There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He said that what people called genius was mostly hard wor k.But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. Nature, he often said, is full of secrets. He tried to understand them; then, he tried to learn what could usefully be done with them.Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people will do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking can give men enjoyment and pleasure.Edison could not understand how anyone could be uninterested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what ideas he h ad about life. “Work,” he answered. “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.31.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.Edison invented the electric light.B.Few men in history can change other people’s life.C.Edison has changed the life of many other people.D.Many other people have changed Edison’s life.32.Edison thought .A. he could be happy if he was a geniusB. genius could do better than hard workC. hard work could do better than geniusD. genius plays the most important part in one’s success33.Edison was .A. very much interested in natureB. uninterested in making people happier by discovering the secrets of natureC. interested in changing people’s ideasD. interested in discovering the secrets of nature34.In Edison’s op inion, .A. thinking can supply people with enjoyment and pleasure as well as helpB. there are few secrets for him to discover laterC. hard work is the second important thing in making people successfulD. people’s successs lies mostly in genius35. The last sentence in the passage most probably implies .A. life is too short for Edison to invent more for human beingsB. People of his time were ready to give Edison another 100 years’ workC. Edison was able to live and work for 100 yearsD. Edison made 100 inventions in his lifeCWhen I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother’s Chi nese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not toUnderstand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.My mother has realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人).I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing, “This is Mrs. Tan.”And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he doesn’t send me cheek already two week lone.”And then, in perfect English I said: “I’m getting rather concerned .You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived.”Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I e to New York tell him front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t tolerate any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural.It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.36.Why was the author’s mother poorly served?A.She was unable to speak good English.B.She was often misunderstood.C.She was not clearly heard.D.She was not very polite.37.From Paragorph 2, we know that the author was .A.good a pretendingB.rude to the stockbrokerC.ready to help her motherD.unwilling to phone for her mother38.After the author made the phone call, .A.they forgave the stockbrokerB.they failed to get the checkC.they went to New York immediatelyD.they spoke to their boss at once39.What does the author think of her mother’s English now?A.It confuses her.B.It embarrasses her.C.It helps her understand the world.D.It helps her tolerate rude people.40.We can inter from the passage that Chinese English .A.is clear and natural to non-native speakersB.is vivid and direct to non-native speakersC.has a verv bad reputation in AmericaD.may bring inconvenience in America四、英语知识运用(满分45分)第一节完型填空(每小题1.5分,共30分)阅读下面短文,将从短文后各题所给的A,B,C,D四个选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项There are more than forty universities in Britain—nearly twice as many as in 1960.

AYou probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?Jane Addams(1860-1935)Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addans helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community(社区) by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need In 1931,Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.Rachel Carson(1907-1964)If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today.Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.Sandra Day O’Connor(1930-present)When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator(参议员) and ,in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.Rosa Parks(1913-2005)On December 1,1955,in Montgomery, Alabama, Rasa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set lff the Montgmery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired lr giving in,” said Parks.21.What is Jane Addams noted for in history?A. Her social workB. Her lack of proper training in lawC. Her efforts to win a prizeD. Her community background22. What is the reason for O’Connor’s being rejected by the law firm?A. Her lack of proper training in lawB. Her little work experience in courtC. The discrimination against womenD. The poor financial conditions23. Who made a great contribution to the civil-rights movement in the US?A. Jane AddamsB. Rachel CarsonC. Sandra Day O’Connor24. What can we infer about the women mentioned in the text?A. They are highly educatedB. They are truly creativeC. They are pioneersD. They are peace-loversBParents in Spain are being urged to go on a weekend homework strike this month in protest against the unacceptable amount of after-school tasks their children are given. The homework load of Spanish children has long been a sore point with some parents, who argue that the burden is too great, places too much pressure on pupils and eats into family time.According to a study by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development(OECD), Spanish 15-year-olds have 6.5 hours of homework a Week compared with an average of 4.9 across the 38 OECD countries. The Spanish Confederation of Associations of Mothers and Fathers of Students (Ceapa)is calling on parents whose children attend Spanish state schools to boycott weekend homework in November."We've lost a bit of common sense in this country when it comes to talking about education and we've got a system in which boys' and girls' free time has disappeared", said Jos Luis Pazos, president of Ceapa. "Schools are passing on tasks to families that they shouldn't be. It starts with children from the ages of three to six doing half an hour's homework every day. For us, that's an unacceptable situation".Pazos said Ceapa disagreed with the belief that children should endure huge amounts of homework in the hope that it would ensure them a better future. They should be. happy when they're little and that life isn't just about someone telling you that you have to suffer inexplicably(难以理解地). The model needs to change because society has changed.Schoolchildren have to fit their homework around the school day, which varies from region to region and school to school, but starts early from around 8 am or 9 am and finishes anywhere between 2 pm and 5 pm. However, schools are increasingly using an 8 am-2 pm timetable to save money and in the face of evidence that suggests the longer hours do not yield better results.A spokesman for the education department of Madrid said homework was a matter for individual schools rather than regional governments. They're the ones who know best what the need is in each case.25.Why are parents in Spain being called on to go on a strike?A. To stop school violenceB. To ask for longer school timeC. To say no to heavy homework loadD. To request equal education for their kids26.Which of the following would Ceapa agree to?A. Longer school hours will ensure better gradesB. Happiness is the most important thing for a childC. Huge amounts of homework means a better futureD. The 8 am-2 pm timetable is suitable for most children27.Which of the following should be responsible for students' homework according to the spokesman?A. CeapaB. The OECDC. Regional governmentsD. Each individual schoolCGrowing up in Wyoming everyday life was an adventure-I spent my time camping, and exploring mountains. When I was little my mom became the state's first female U.S. Marshall. I'll never forget how the local newspaper praised her for her success in a field that's traditionally run by men. Under her influence I made up my mind to achieve something great. Now I've become famous for sailing, a sport often considered "a man's world".Sailing is considered a hard-to-break-into sport. And generally, there are only two ways to get into it-either through a strict sailing education that leads to experience or by growing up on the water and racing in the Olympics. Most of my teammates became professional sailors in one of these two ways but I skipped both.In the summer of 2008, I went to St. Croix through a college internship(实习) program focusing on educating locals about HIV and AIDs. There I discovered my love for sailing. Then SCA a global hygiene(卫生保健) company, made the decision to support an all-female team and when they began accepting applications, I knew it was the chance of a lifetime. I made it my task to become a part of the team. Even when it seemed like there were no positions left, I never gave up. After a stressful, two-year application process, I finally got the call. I moved to Lanzarote in the Canary Islands and began training with the team immediately. The process was physically, mentally and emotionally exhausting, but I finally achieved my goal. I sailed in the "Everest of sailing" with only six years' experience. Later there was an all-female team competing and I was lucky enough to be a part of it.As women, we need to approach our dreams as if we deserve to achieve them as much as men, because we do. There are plenty of professions, including sailing, in which women are absent or have a minor presence-but that's not because they shouldn't be there. We need to push the boundaries and focus on obtaining our goals and passions, no matter how unobtainable and challenging they may seem.28.Why does the author mention her mother in Paragraph 1?A. To compare with her motherB. To describe women's strugglesC. To analyze her mother's successD. To show her mother's influence on her29.What does the underlined word "both" in Paragraph 2 probably refer to?A. Two traditional ways to become professional sailorsB. Two important persons in the author's lifeC. Two basic stages of being a sailorD. Two famous professional sailors30.What is the correct order of the following events?a. I began training with the sailing teamb. I attended a college internship programc. I took part in competing in an all-female teamd. I discovered my love for sailing as a womanA. b-d-a-cB. d-a-c-bC. a-c-d-bD. a-d-c-b31.Which can best describe the author?A. HumorousB. GenerousC. PessimisticD. DeterminedDThe oddness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples.First consider something as simple as sleep. Its position presents its own challenges. The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float free in zero gravity, often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny balled(芭蕾) dancer. “I’m an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station. “I like to be wrapped up.”On the station, the ordinary becomes strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars. It also has no seat. With no gravity, it’s just as easy to pedal violently. You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want. But station residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help circulate air, the carbon dioxide you exhale(呼气) has a tendency to form an invisible(隐形的) cloud around you head. You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache.Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat, ”Your inner ear thinks your’re falling. Meanwhile your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying-that’s why some people feel sick.” Within a couple days-truly terrible days for some-astronauts’ brains learn to ignore the panicky signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears.Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That’s why exercise is considered so vital that National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is asmuch about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronauts return home, and, more importantly, how to maintain strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars.32.What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space?A. Deciding on a proper sleep positionB. Choosing a comfortable sleeping bagC. Seeking a way to fall asleep quicklyD. Finding a right time to go to sleep33.The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when .A. the y circle around on their bikesB. they use microcomputers without a stopC. they exercise in one place for a long timeD. they watch a movie while pedaling34.Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because .A. their senses stop workingB. they have to stand up straightC. they float out of their seats unexpectedlyD. their brains receive contradictory messages35.One of the NASA’s major concerns about astronauts is.A. how much exercise they do on the stationB. how they can remain healthy for long in spaceC. whether they can recover after returning homeD. whether they are able to go back to the station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。

(A)At thirteen, I was diagnosed (诊断)with kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.In my first literature class, Mrs.Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said,“Mrs.Smith, you see, th e doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.” She glanced down at me through her glasses, “you are no different from your classmates, young man.”I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home. In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots(点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind. Wasn’tI the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; Ijust needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?I didn’t expect anything when I handled in my paper to Mrs.Smith, so it wasquite a surprise when it came back to me the next day- with an“A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words:“ See what you can do when you keep trying?”21. The author didn’t finish the reading in class because.A. He was new to the classB.He was tried of literatureC. He had an attention disorderD. He wanted to take the task home22. What was Mrs.Smith’s attitude to the author at the end of the story?A. AngryB. ImpatientC. SympatheticD. Encouraging23. What is the main idea of the passage?A.The disabled should be treated with respect.B.A teacher can open up a new world to students.C. One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.D. Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.( B )China’s new term,tuhao,may be in next year’s Oxford English Dictionary.The word caug ht the attention of the dictionary’s editing team after BBC’s recent program on influential Chinese words.“If its influence continues,it is very likely to appear on our updated list of words,”said Julie Kleeman,project manager with the editing team.In Chinese tu means uncouth(粗鲁的) and hao means rich.It has traditionally been referred to rich people who throw their weight around in China’s countryside.The word became more popular with the launch of Apple’s new gold-colored iPhone,which is loved by Chi na’s r ich people.The color became known as “tuhao gold”.The word is now also used by the online community to refer to people who have the cash but lack the class to go with it.Kleeman also mentioned other Chinese word—dama, which means middle-aged women, was first used in the Western media by the Wall Street Journal in May when thousandsof Chinese women were buying up record number of gold. They were the driving force in the global gold market between April and Julywhen the gold prices had dropped.People can have an intuitive(直觉的)grasp of the meanings if they see pinyin,Kleeman said,adding that people avoid using an English word to keep the original meaning.“We have nearly 120 Chinese-linked words now in Oxford English Dictionary,”she said.Som e of them are:guanxi,which means “connection”;taikonaut,a mix of taikong,meaning outer space,and astronaut.The new words will be first uploaded on the official website before the dictionaries arrive.The online version is also renewed every three months.“I t at least broke our old rules.It used to take 10 years to include a new word but now we keep pace with the time,” according to a statement from ex-chief-editor John Simpson.24.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A.Dama and tuhao have made it into Oxford English Dictionary.B.Some influential Chinese words appeared on one of BBC’s recent programs.C.Tuhao refers to people who have both the cash and the class.D.John Simpson thinks that it is not good to break old rules.25.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Give orders to others.B.Get ready to help others.C.Go on a diet.D.Put on weight.26.Tuhao became more popular partly because______________.A.it is very likely to appear in Oxford English DictionaryB.it is often used by the online communityC.people use Chinese pinyin to keep the original meaningD.Apple launched a new gold-colored iPhone27. What’s the similarity between “tuhhao” and “dama”?A.Both take new meanings.B.Both were created in British.C.Both will be uploaded in the next dictionary versionbefore the official website.D.They have the same meaning.( C )The China Daily newspaper group is looking for English-language senior business editors,senior copy editors,copy editors and graphic designers to strengthen its international team.We offer a competitive salary package,accommodation with furniture paid for 90 percent medicalreimbursement(报销),a seven-day paid leave,eleven-day public holidays and a return ticket to the country of residence.Senior Business EditorYou must: (1)assist the business editor in setting goals and working on achieving them; (2)bean excellent team person who can generate ideas and think creatively and be able to rewrite articles totally if needed; (3)ideally have been working or have worked in a position of responsibility and understand what leadership intends; (4)have had at least five years’ editing experience working on editing The Business Desk and be familiar with industry software.Senior Copy EditorYou must: (1)work on shifts in The Business Desk and usually have the last word before the page is sent to print; (2)edit or rewrite copies and give smart headlines and captions(说明文字); (3)have had at least two years’editing experience working on editing desks and be familiar with industry software.

AThere are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are worth a try. Ho w? Packaging is the silent but persuading salesman .There on the shelves, each bottle, can, box, and jar has been carefully designed and measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer, so that his buying notonly a product but also his belief in life. Scientists have studi ed consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect on the “quality” of the pr oduct and on how well it sells, because “Consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many product s are packages and many packages are products,” as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers’ feeling fo r packaging, noticed.Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colors draw human attention quic kly. Take V8 for example. For many years, the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that it is very good for your body. And the word “green” today can keep food prices going up.Shapes are another attraction. Circles often suggest happines s and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to bo th the eye and the heart. That’s why the round yellow M signs of McDonald’s are inviting to both young and old.This new consumer response (反应) to the colors and shapes of packages reminds producers and sellers that people buy to satisfy both body and soul.1.According to the passage, ________ seems to be able to pers uade a consumer to buy the product.A. the pleasing color of the packageB. the special ta ste of the productC. the strange shape of the packageD. the belief in t he product2.

It can be inferred from the passage that V8 is a kind of ____ ____.A. vegetable dishB. healthy juiceC. iced drinkD. red vegetableBLying within, the inner London Borough of Southwark, this hu gely improved non-selective Secondary Academy School is looking to recruit (招募) and appoint a talented Science Teacher in April 2016 or s ooner.POSITION:Science Teacher | KS3 —5| All Science specialists welcomeDEPARTMENT:Popular & Ambitious Science Department LOCATION:Borough of Southwark — Zone 2 — Inner PERSON:Qualified Science Teacher required — experience in or overseas trainedSTART DATE:April 2016 or sooner — full time & permanent contract on offe rSALARY:Inner London Pay Scale —£29,270~£37,862 a yearPERSON REQUIREMENT:All applicants will need to be suitably skilled, trained and quali fied to be considered for this Science Teacher position.

The next m oment, metal, flesh and bone were spreading against the pav ement in a thunderous crash. Another cyclist, biking carelessl y, had cut me off and sent me supermanning toward oncomin g traffic.As if to symbolize the accident that had hit my life, another dis aster also occurred on April 14th, 2010. It cost the airline indu stry $l.7 billion. Ten million travelers were stuck for days. Eco nomies all over the world were disturbed. This was the eruptio n of Eyjafjallajokull, one of ’s many volcanoes.However, volcanoes are not all bad. In fact, they are necessar y. They are responsible for the birth of new earth, and for the creation of rich soil. This eruption gave off 0.15 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere daily. But cancelling 48% of the world’s flight travel saved about 2.8 million tons of CO2 from entering the atmosphere, temporarily decreasing our car bon footprint.Similarly, the accident had badly affected my emotion but it al so allowed me to look more closely inside myself and discover things about myself I never would have realized. I learned h ow not to judge myself for my new limitations.In 1973, another Icelandic volcano, Eldfell, broke out. Iceland ers decided to bomb it with cold water until it froze and chose a different path. After their plan worked, they used the geother mal (地热) energy for the next 15 years to heat their homes. A good e xample of life bringing lemons, and making lemonade! One m ust move on from misfortunes, focusing only on the present m oment and being hopeful for the future.I ran from April 14th, 2010, to every kind of escape. Eventuall y I ended up in university for a new-found love in Earth sciences.8. What happened to the writer on April 14th, 2010?A. He was involved in a car crash.B. He was stuck in ’s ai rport.C.

Carbon dioxide was increased temporarily.C. Most of the world’s planes were held up.D. The earth in was terribly polluted10. Why did the writer mention the Eldfell volcano?A. It broke out in on April 14th as well.B. It symbolized the accident that changed his life.C. It told us to make the most of given situation.D. It encouraged him to know more about himself11. What is the best title for the passage?A. Escape from VolcanoesB. Inspiration from DisastersC. Love for Earth ScienceD. Attitude towards NatureDBillboard Music Awards of the Year of 2015 goes to Taylor Sw ift, a singer-songwriter, who has shaped and inspired the American music industry with her success.When Taylor Swift first came to public notice, she was a 17-year-old newcomer who loved singing to her own guitar.

She followed that up in 2008 with Fearl ess, which established her as a skilled songwriter with several hits, including Love Story, You belong with me and White Hor se.Not surprisingly, the 6-time platinum Fearless is the most awarded album in country music history in the and her overall worldwide sales now reac h 20 million albums and 40 million songs downloads. Swift ha s spent the past year on the Speak Now World Tour in suppor t of her third album, and now she’s getting ready to go further.According to a recent interview with The New Yorker magazine, Swift has so far written about 10 songs for a 2016 album. S he said the new album is about feelings of growing up and be coming an adult.“They’re sad if I’m being honest.” Swift told The New Yorker. “They’re about my heartbreaks and my moving on.

He was a quiet child who spent much of his time alone. He was slow to talk a nd had difficulty learning to read. When Albert was five years old, his father gave him a compass. The child was filled with wonder when he discovered that the compass needle always pointed in the same direction — the north. He asked his father and his uncle what caused the needle to move.Albert did not like school. The German schools of that time we re not pleasant. Students could not ask questions. Albert said he felt as if he were in prison.In 1905, Albert Einstein published some important papers in a German scientific magazine. They included one of the most i mportant scientific documents in history. It explained what ca me to be called his “Special Theory of Relativity”. Ten years la ter, he expanded it to a “General Theory of Relativity”.In 1921, he won the Nobel Prize in Physics. It was given to hi m not for his theories of relativity, but for his discovery of the l aw of the photoelectric effect.Albert Einstein left Germany when Adolph Hitler came to pow er in 1933. He moved to the United States to continue his res earch. Einstein became a citizen of the United States in 1940. Einstein was a famous man, but you would not have known that by looking at him. His white hair was long and wild. He wor e old clothes. He showed an inner joy when he was playing hi s violin or talking about his work. Students and friends said he had a way of explaining difficult ideas using images that were easy to understand.Einstein spent the last twenty-five years of his life working on what he called a “unified field t heory”. He hoped to find a common mathematical statement t hat could tie together all the different parts of physics. He did not succeed.Albert Einstein died in 1955 at the age of seventy-six.5.

How Albert Einstein won success.CLast Thursday, Michael and Linda stood behind large food tru cks distributing meals to 4,000 homeless people for their wed ding reception on the border town of Kilis. The couple had dec ided that instead of hosting their friends and family for a traditi onal feast reception, they would feed the victims from an eart hquake-stricken area.The idea came from the bridegroom’s father, Ted, who volunt eers for a Turkish relief organization. For the past few years, t he organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of pe ople who have suffered from natural disasters. He approache d a representative of the organization and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding them for the day.Then he told his son, who was surprised by the suggestion, b ut soon won over. When he told that to the bride, she was real ly shocked but finally accepted because in southeastern Turk ey there is a real culture of sharing with people in need. They love to share their food, their table and everything they have. And afterwards she was quite amazed about it. So, they arriv ed at the distribution center on Thursday to spend the day ser ving food and taking photographs with their grateful recipients (接受者).On Tuesday evening, the newly married couple were still plea sed with their decision to quit a personal celebration for one w ith a greater good. “It’s like sharing a dinner with your friends and family who have this kind of thing on a daily basis or shari ng something with people who don’t even have the most basi c things,” Michael said. “Hopefully, this will also give the start f or other wedding dinners to be held here with our brothers and sisters in need.”8.Why was there so many homeless people in Kilis?A. To attend Michael and Linda’s wedding.B. To support the organization.C. To escape the damaging earthquake.D. To help distribute free daily meals.9. How did the couple celebrate their wedding?A. They treated their friends and relatives to a big dinner.B. They afforded the entire cost of the day for feeding victims.C. They shared their happiness with the relatives in Kilis.D. They took photos with the grateful victims.10.What does the underlined word “approached” in Paragraph2 mean?A. took inB. moved toC. came acrossD. consulted with11.We can know from the text that __________________..A. Kilis is a place which lies in southeastern TurkeyB. Ted was a representative of the organizationC. Linda adopted the suggestion immediately she heard itD. Michael doubted if more new couples would follow himDEnglish songs have been very popular for people around the world for many decades. Songs from Elvis Presley to Ricky M artin, from the Beatles to Eminem and from Natalie Cole to Bri tney Spears have all been enjoyed by people around the worl d, even for people who don’t speak English, and even for peo ple who don’t speak English.From my experience, some people listen to English songs for 20-30 years but still don’t achieve any good English skills. Some people choose English songs to be their main learning metho d, but most of them fail.Listening to English songs does not help you to speak English fluently. It does help you gain some vocabulary, but most of t hese words are unusual ones that you don’t use in everyday li fe. You won’t learn the sentence “It is a difficult project. We re ally need to meet the deadline.” in any English songs.
