Many people believe that confident people think more highly of themselves， while those who have low self﹣esteem （自尊） think less of their good qualities． However， a new study says it might not be true， reported The Guardian．The study was done by Jonathan Freeman， a psychology （心理学） professor from the University of London， UK． He found that 98 percent of British people consider themselves to be among the nicest 50 percent of the population．In the study， Freeman first asked some people to rate （评级） their own niceness． Then he got people to answer questions like "Do you give directions to strangers？" and "Have you ever donated blood？"． The results showed that people are not as nice as they think theyare． Two thirds of them seldom helped others carry heavy shopping bags， and only a quarter of them donated blood．In another study by psychologists from universities in Chicago and Virginia， US， some people were shown pictures of themselves． Some pictures had been slightly changed to make them appear more attractive． When asked to pick the unchanged pictures， people usually chose the more attractive ones．So， why do we think we're nicer than we actually are？There are many theories （理论）． A popular one says we unconsciously （无意识地）deceive （欺骗） ourselves， so that we can get confidence without knowingly lying to ourselves or each other．How can we solve it？ Other studies show that there is a simple way： feedback （反馈）． Compare others' opinion toward yourself with your own and you will see a clearer picture．六、缺词填空（共10空，每空1分，共10分）根据短文内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入恰当的词使短文完整．（每空一词）32.

As the old saying goes, "A new broom sweeps clean．" Donald Trump, the 45th president of the United States, took office on Jan 20． Soon after that, the new president began using his power to make changes to the country by signing several executive orders（总统行政令）．The orders include the travel ban （禁令） on refugees （难民） and people from seven mainly Muslim countries, like Iraq and Syria． Trump believes this helps keep terrorism （恐怖主义） out of the US． He also signed an order to build a wall alongthe southern border, aiming to stop smugglers （走私者） and Mexicans moving to the US illegally （非法地）．Trump pointed out on his Facebook that this is about keeping the USsafe． However, many people, both from the US and other countries, are against the orders． Judges in the US say that Trump's travel ban is unconstitutional （违背宪法的）, as it is a kind of discrimination （歧视） against Muslims． And worldleaders, groups and businesses including those from the United Nations and European Union are also against or have criticized the ban．Trump also signed another controversial （有争议的） order about the economy． He decided to quit the Trans﹣Pacific Partnership （TPP, 跨太平洋伙伴关系协定）． It was a free trade agreement between 12 countries around the Pacific, includingAustralia, Singapore and Japan． TPP was the product of seven years of work under former US President Barack Obama． It aims to make trade easier among the 12 countries． But Trump wants to do trade deals with one country at a time, instead of in a big group like the TPP, according to The Independent．（1）According to Trump， he signed the travel ban on refugees to________．A solve the refugee problemsB fight against MuslimsC keep his countrysafe D stop foreigners entering the US．（2）What do many US people think of Trump's orders， according to the second paragraph？________A They think the orders are helpful．B They don't support the orders．C They think the orders follow the law．D The orders are against the rules of the UN and EU．．（3）Trump decided to leave the TPP， because________．A he preferred to trade with one country at a time rather than a groupB he didn't want to make trade deals with Australia and JapanC he thought the TPP group was not big enoughD he didn't like the former US president．（4）What does the passage mainly talk about？________A Trump's new orders．B Trump's travel ban．C The Trans﹣Pacific Partnership．D Different leadership styles of US presidents．20. Have you ever felt a strong emotion （情绪）, but not been able to find the right word to describe it? Maybe there is a word for it, but you just don't know it yet． One man is trying to help fix this problem． University of East London psychology researcher Tim Lomas is making a list of words from different languages around the world． The words have no exact equivalent（对等的） words or phrases in the English language． Perhaps the most famous example is "________", the German word describing pleasure at the bad luck of others．Borrowing from as many languages as he could, Lomas searched for "untranslatable" experiences and published them in The Journal of Positive Psychology last year． His study is called the Positive Lexicography Project． Lomas has focused mostly on happy moments． He hopes that learning these words will enrich （使丰富） people's lives． So now, thanks to the Portuguese（葡萄牙语）, when you run your fingers through a loved one's hair you can call it "cafune"． Or you can use the Spanish word "estrenar" to describe the feeling when you wear or use something for the first time． The Germans describe the good mood at the end of a working day as "feierabend", while the Norwegians describe the feeling of sitting around a warm fireplace as "________"．"The limits of our language are said to define the boundaries of our world, " Lomas wrote for The Conversation． "If we lack （缺乏） a word for a particular positive emotion, we are far less likely to experience it．"（1）What is psychology researcher Tim Lomas working on？________A He is studying people's strong emotions．B He is improving the old English dictionaries．C He is making a list of words to describe people's emotions．D He is trying to explain the differences between languages in the world．．（2）What does the underlined word "schadenfreude" in the first paragraph mean in Chinese？________A 乐极生悲B 幸灾乐祸C 苦尽甘来D 火上浇油．（3）Which of the following is NOT true about Lomas' study？________A He borrowed from many languages for his study．B His studied "untranslatable" experiences．C His study is called the Positive Lexicography Project．D His study focused on sad moments in people's daily life．．（4）The word "peiskos" describes the feeling________．A when you push your fingers through a loved one's hairB when you wear or usesomething for the first time C when a long working day comes to an end D whenyou're sitting around a warm fireplace．四、词汇运用（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）21.

We don't know how different our life will be in the future． We can only try to imagine it．At first we think about human relationship． In the year 2050， we will use computers almost every day． We will be making new friends through the Internet﹣even husbandsand wives will meet in this way． It will be much faster and easier for us． However，human relationship won't be as important as it is today﹣we will feel a little lonely．Computers will also help us in many other activities in 2050． For example， they will be used by the children at school to make their learning easier． Moreover， there will be much more other machines which will play a similar role as computers， like robots，which will help children with their homework．Spending holidays will also be completely different． Travelling to other planets or to the Moon will be possible for everyone． Means of transport will， of course， change too． We will be using solar﹣ powered（太阳能） cars， which will be much cleaner．We could expect that the faster technology progress would lead to a more polluted environment． But it isn't true． We will pay more attention to protecting the environment． And scientists will probably find cures for many dangerous diseases， like cancer or AIDS． Therefore， our environment as well as health will be in better condition．九、书面表达（共1小题；满分25分）34. 每年的4月23日是世界读书日，这个纪念日的意义在于推动更多人去阅读．假如你校将开展"读好书，促成长"活动，请你根据这项活动的主题，向全校同学发出倡议．注意：1．词数90左右．短文的开头已为你写好，不计入总词数；2．短文须包括所有要点，不要逐词翻译，可适当发挥，使短文连贯、通顺；3．短文中不得出现真实的人名、校名等相关信息．Dear classmates，Reading is very important in our daily life．Let's start reading now!要求：（1）条理清楚，语意连贯，句式规范，字迹工整；（2）文中不得出现真实的人名、地名、校名，否则以零分计算．2017年江苏省连云港市连云区中考英语二模试卷答案1.

Peru．Only one person survived．She was a 17﹣year﹣old German girl called Juliane Koepke．When the plane crashed，Juliane fell through the trees and landed on the ground．She did not wake up for a day．When she did，she had a terrible headache and a bad cut on her arm，but she could walk．She stood up and started to look for help，Soon Juliane realized that she was by herself in the jungle．She needed to find her way to a town or village，but how could she do that？She knew that the aeroplane had crashed in the middle of the largest jungle in the world．Luckily，Juliane knew something about the jungle．Her parents were scientists．They were studying the jungle in Peru，and that is where Juliane grew up．She knew that the most important thing was to find fresh water．When Juliane found a stream，she followed it in the direction that the water was moving．She knew that the stream would become a river，and there were often villages near a river．It wasn't an easy journey for her．She walked for days．She often had to walk or swim through dangerous water full of crocodiles．When the animals attacked her，she fought them with stick．Rescue planes were looking for people who were still alive after the

want to know more about society，we can look at traditional clothing．The continent of Africa has a long history and a rich culture，and this is shown in traditional dress．You often find three colours一red，gold and green in the clothing．The first colour stands for the blood of millions of people who suffered as slaves（奴隶）；the second is for the rich resources of the African earth；and the third represents the grasslands of home．The patterns（图案）on the clothing also have a meaning．A common pattern is in the form of a cross "×"，which stands for "unity"．Another pattern is a rectangular box，which represents "strength"．Because clothing has a strong social meaning，people are very careful in choosing what to wear．It wouldn't be good to wear the wrong clothing，or to wear clothes in the wrong way．For instance，in Ghana，a woman should wear her waistband differently according to the importance of the social event．Traditional dress also tells us about everyday life．African designs are famous for loose（宽松的）clothing．The climate，with the hot sun and wide temperature changes，requires that the clothes are comfortable for daily life．Although many people wear western clothes，particularly in the big cities in Africa，traditional dress is very highly valued．This is because it has deep cultural meanings．32．According to the passage，red．A．represents the setting sunB．stands for African unityC．is chosen because it is a bight colourD．is a reminder（暗示）of the sad history in Africa33．According to the passage，which sentence is NOT RIGHT？A．The rectangular box in the pattern represents"strength"．B．Africa has a long history and a rich culture．C．African dress has deep cultural meanings．D．Afrian people seldom wear loose clothing because of the climate．34．The passage is mainly about in Africa．A．the history of clothesB．modern fashion stylesC．the meanings of traditional dressD．the materials used in traditional dress35．（6分）Why think of road safety？It is because of the accidents that happen every day on the road．These accidents mean losing life or wealth and more than traffic jams．So if people aren't educated on the importance of road safety，the situation can't be avoided．Accidents have many causes．The simplest is people slipping down on the road caused by a banana skin．Without meaning any harm，a person may throw away the banana skin on the road．When a person steps on，he or she will slip down ending in broken bones and sometimes even more dangerous．So people must take care and throw them in a bin．In some countries，the offenders are seriously punished．The second cause is careless crossing in busy road instead of crossing along zebra crossings．One should keep to the sidewalk of the road while walking and the vehicles（车辆）must keep to their lanes（车道）in busy streets．Also，there are many causes for the accidents about vehicles．One is trying to overtake．Another is not noticing the signals．"Stop，look and go" is the basic rule，it will save vehicles from accidents．Riding two or three side by side is always dangerous．Very often the cause of accidents is the failure of the brake system which means the owner of the vehicle does not have the machine checked regularly．Road safety is a matter of education in which schools can share responsibility．Through class meetings，children can be taught the importance of following the rules of the road．As soon as the bell goes，children rush out andaccidents do happen．Therefore，teachers must feel it their duty to control the traffic near the school．The police can help schools at rush hours．To make people aware of road safety，media（媒体）can play a useful role．The newspaper，the wall poster and the cinema and now the TV can deliver information．There may be talks over the radio by the police officials or advertisements about being careful on roads before films or TV programs．35．What does"offenders" in Paragraph 2refer to？A．people who step on banana skinsB．people who throw banana skins on the roadC．people who walk on zebra crossingsD．people who keep their lanes while driving36．How many causes for the accidents about vehicles are mentioned in Paragraph 3？A．twoB．threeC．fourD．five37．According to the article，schools should take actions to help kids on roads．Which one of thefollowing statement is not mentioned？A．schools invite the police to give talksB．schools educate students in classC．schools mange the traffic near schoolD．schools get help from the police during rush hours三、单词拼写（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）根据下列句子及所给汉语注释或对话情景提示，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式．每空只写一词．38．（1分）It'll take three

The most important thing that leads to success is what you do every day．Your habits wi ll decide whether you are successful or not．If you have strong positive （积极的） habits，you will succeed in the long term．On the other hand，if you have strong negative （消极的）habits，you will fail in the long term．It does not matter whether you succeed today or not．Why are habits so important？A positive action will not change your life，but the same action repeated 1，000times will have a great effect on your life．For example，if you go to the gym one time，you won't see some differences．However，if your go there 1，000time over a five-year period，you will see a big difference in your body．The same is true of health，relationships，work，and school．How to develop positive habits？There's nothing easier than developing positive habits．You simply have to do it every day．If you want to develop the habit of reading，read every day．Habits are created by repetition （重复）．The more you do an action，the easier it becomes in the long run．How to get rid of negative habits？You can destroy （破坏） negative habits only by stopping them．If you are a smoker，stop smoking．Yes，it will be very difficult at the beginning．The first week will be very hard．After three weeks，you will feel a lot better．It's hard to get rid of negative habits because you got a lot of pleasu re from these habits in the past．You can do it!Everybody can change．All it takes is courage and determination（决心）．Take action right now!Don't be afraid．Yes，you will probably make mistakes along the way．But never forget that success is waiting for you if you have positive habits in your life．If you refuse to give up，success will be yours．he put it at a crossing on a busy street．And below it a board read，"Gentlemen，I have painted this piece．S（67）________I'm new，I might make some mistakes in it．Please put a cross （叉号） wherever you see a mistake．"When he came back in the evening to c（68）________ his picture，he was shocked to see that the whole picture was filled with crosses．And some people e （69）________wrote something on his picture．Sadly，he ran to his master and said，"I failed．And if this is what I have learned，I'm not w（70）________teaching．"The master smiled and suggested，"I'll let you know that you're a great artist．Now go to paint the same picture again and give it to me．"Then they went to the same street the next morning and put the new picture exactly at the sa me place．Now the master took out another board w（71）________said，"Gentlemen，I painted this piece．There might be some mistakes in it．I have put a box with colors and b rushes just below．Please give me a h（72）________．If you see a mistake，pick up the brush and correct it．"Two days later，they came back to the place．The young painter was s（73）________to see that actually there was not a single correction done!It's easy to say but difficult to do．If you want to help people i（74）________their behavior，you'd better learn how to help people change their attitudes （态度） or skills．Also，always remember not to judge （评判） y（75）________by someone else's words and feel bad．七、书面表达（每小题2分，计30分）33. 俗话说，患难见真情．________．34. 你在下雪天开车这么快是很危险的．________．35. 如果新能源更加广泛地被使用，环境污染将会大大减少．________．36. 进房间前，别忘了先敲下门．________．37. 你能想象我理想的大学是什么样子的吗？________．38. 假如你是Ivy，你们学校正在开展"爱心传递，从我做起"主题教育活动．请你根据所列提示问题谈谈你对这个活动的认识，用英语写一篇短文给某英文网站投稿．提示问题：（1）Why do you show your kindness to others？（At least one reason）（2）What do you usually do when someone needs help？（At least two examples）（3）How do you feel？写作要求：（1）表达清楚，语法正确，上下文连贯；（2）必须包括所有相关信息，并作适当发挥；（3）词数：100词左右（开头已给出，不计入总词数）；（4）不得使用真实姓名、校名和地名等．At my school，we are talking about what we can do to give hands to others in trouble．2017年江苏省扬州市宝应县、高邮市中考英语二模试卷答案1.

It seems that your mobile secretly calls your name all the time，even when you are with real people．So，next time you go out to have dinner with your family or friends，how about not taking photos of food？Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you．Trust me．It will be a wonderful time．69．What happens a lot at the dinner table nowadays？70．What does the recent study tell us about taking photos of food？71．将文中括号内的单词连成一个句子，使短文意思通顺、完整．72．What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about？73．What does the writer advise us to do while we're having dinner with others？六、书面表达（满分20分）74．（20分）乐于助人是我们中华民族的传统美德．作为一名中学生，在日常生活中要学会帮助他人．假如你叫张华，最近正在和美国笔友Tonny通过邮件讨论"帮助"的话题，他想了解在日常生活中你是怎样帮助他/她人的．请你根据他的问题回复邮件．注意：1．词数90左右，已给出部分不计入总词数．2．可适当发挥，使短文通顺、连贯．3．文中不得出现真实姓名和校名．Dear Tonny，Nice to hear from you．As a middle school student，I'm always ready to help others．Yours，Zhang Hua2017年江苏省徐州市部分学校中考英语二模试卷参考答案与试题解析一、选择填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分）1．（1分）﹣______ can we go on a school trip，Mr．Smith？﹣Every two months．（）A．How long B．How many timesC．How often D．How soon【解答】考查疑问词组．how long多久，对一段时间或长度提问．How many times 多少次．how often多久，对频率提问．how soon "多快/多久以后"，其后用in 加一段时间来回答．根据回答"每两个月"可知，对频率提问用疑问词how often 多久．故选：C．2．（1分）﹣Could you give me some advice on travelling？﹣Take a map with you while travelling _____ you have a guide or you know the city verywell．（）A．if B．unless C．although D．because【解答】答案：B．本题考查的是从属连词的辨析．根据题意，从主句句意"旅游时要带一幅地图"和从句句意"你有导游或是很熟悉那座城市"来看，这里需要一个表假设的连词，结合选项，unless可以引导一个表假设的条件状语从句，意为"除非"，相当于if not．故选B．3．（1分）﹣Nora published her first poem when she was only seven!﹣At seven？What a !I knew few words at her age．（）A．mess B．pity C．surprise D．shame【解答】答案：C．首先明确选项中每个单词的意思，A：混乱；B：遗憾；C：令人吃惊的事/惊喜；D：羞愧；根据题干推测答语的句意是"七岁时？太令人吃惊了，我在她那个年龄还不大识字．"，由此判断句子中缺少"令人吃惊的事"一词，故答案为C．4．（1分）This photo reminds me the things and persons we met at college．（）A．of；that B．about；which C．to；/ D．on；what【解答】答案：A考查词语固定用法，remind sb．of sth．使某人回想起某事，所以前一空填介词of，后一空是定语从句填that，因为先行词既有人也有物时，要用that，所以本题选A．5．（1分）﹣Excuse me，I want to have my watch fixed，but I can't find a repair shop．﹣I know ______ nearby．Come on，I'll show you．（）A．one B．it C．some D．that【解答】答案：A 结合上一句的句意"对不起，我想把手表修好，但我找不到修理店．"和下一句的后面部分"来，我会告诉你．"可以推测出我知道附近有一个修理店，one表示有一个，指代不确定的修理店；it代指上面提到的事物，指代确定的那一个修理店；some指一些修理店；that指的是那个修理店．结合句意可知是不确定的修理店，故选：A．6．（1分）﹣Susan，why are you still here？They are all ready to start．﹣I'm sorry，but I ______ when to start．（）A．didn't tell B．don't tell C．wasn't told D．haven't told【解答】根据I'm sorry，but I ______ when to start，可知这里说的应该是过去没有被告知，这里用一般过去时，而I是动作的承受者，这里使用被动语态，构成were/was+动词的过去分词，否定形式在be动词后面加not．故选：C．7．（1分）﹣What language is that guy speaking？I can't catch a word．﹣．He's from India，so I guess it is Hindi．（）A．so can I B．so I canC．neither can I D．neither I can【解答】答案：C．Neither+系动词/助动词/情态动词+主语表达否定，意为"另一者也不…"．So+系动词/助动词/情态动词+主语表达肯定，表示"另一者也…"．这两种倒装结构都是前面的情况也适用于另一个主语．从对话来看，可知是两者之间的对话，另外根据句意"so I guess it is Hindi"可知后者也没听懂，所以要用neither引起的倒装，结合上一句中的"can't"，要用情态动词can．故选C．8．（1分）﹣I'd like to speak to Mrs．Zhao．Could you ______ me ______？﹣Sure．Hold on，please．（）A．put；up B．put；through C．put；off D．put；out【解答】分析句子，结合选项，推测意思是我想和赵夫人讲话，你能帮我接通吗？当然，请稍等．考查短语put sb．through．A张贴，B接通，C推迟，D扑灭．故选：B．9．（1分）﹣Look!

It's my birthday today!" However，the old man in front of her didn't show he was（20）by my talkative child．He（21）with a smile，"Well，little lady! And how old are you today？" After a few minutes' chat，Norah offered to take a photo with the old man called Mr．Dan，his expression changed from surprised to delighted．We exchanged our phone numbers．There was magic happening in the store that day，and we could （22）feel it．During our first visit in Mr．Dan's home，We walked with him to his front door．He pulled out a knife and（23）the only blooming red rose．He spent ten minutes cutting every thorn（刺）（24）the stem（茎）before handing it to his new friend．Norah keeps that rose，now（25）as a bone，under her pillow for a long time．Norah asks about Mr．Dan every day．She worries about him．She wonders if he's （26），or cold．She wants him to be OK．She wants him to feel loved．Mr．Dan thinks about Norah too．After （27）recent visit，he said that he had （28）had a whole night's sleep since his wife died．"Norah has healed me since meeting her．" he said．That left me（29）and my eyes wet with tears．Somehow，their hearts and souls seem to recognize each other from long ago．Sometimes talking to strangers can（30）beautiful new beginnings．16．A．broken B．beautiful C．boring D．busy17．A．what B．that C．if D．when 18．A．hello B．no C．yes D．thanks 19．A．excitedly B．sadly C．luckily D．carefully 20．A．treated B．trained C．trapped D．troubled 21．A．realized B．replied C．repeated D．recorded 22．A．neither B．both C．all D．none 23．A．let B．get C．put D．cut 24．A．off B．down C．into D．away 25．A．wet B．white C．dry D．red 26．A．relaxed B．excited C．lonely D．silly 27．A．the other B．another C．other D．others 28．A．never B．always C．often D．usually 29．A．useless B．meaningless C．careless D．speechless 30．A．belong to B．lead to C．thanks to D．speak to三、阅读理解（共4小题；每小题6分，计30分）31．（6分）：31．What difficulty did Sara Crewe face in her life ？A．The American Civil WarB．The loss of her parentsC．Adventures in Never﹣Never LandD．Her strong character32．We can learn from the passage that．A．we can buy all the above books in bookstores B．two of the books are written by J．M BarrieC．all the books have children as their main charactersD．Peter Pan is ¥3cheaper online than in bookstores33．If you want to buy all the three books，you have to pay at least online．A．¥30B．¥12C．¥48D．¥4234．（8分）I arrived in Cali，the second largest city in Colombia．The sun was truly shining．Cali was great，the people were friendly and helpful．One thing I knew about Colombia before I came was the coffee．I drank it every day while dreaming about South American adventures in my cold，wet hometown of England．What I wasn't prepared for was the beauty there．Even the bus ride was a pleasure．I never thought I would say like this in South America．The landscape was so unexpected，I didn't imagine Colombia to have this much beauty．There lay fresh mountain waterfalls as well as luminous green hills at every turn，it was so amazing!Bogota was my next stop．In the beginning，I thought it was a boring city with nothing different from any other．Then I opened my eyes and my heart．It attracted me．The smiles from the locals were infectious（有感染力的），love poured from their hearts．For me，Bogota and the Colombian people changed my view on everything．I took a walk alone one night to pick up some goods．It was dark，and I was in a strange neighborhood．Yet all I could think about was how safe I felt，I almost felt like I was in my local town．People smiled and carried on with their own business．I walked more slowly and stayed for longer，that moment，I knew I had to change foreigners' opinion on Colombia．Thinking about the last month in Colombia，I couldn't believe how much I had fallen in love with it．I've done seven countries in seven months and over twenty﹣five in my lifetime，and Colombia is right up there at number one!

read stories of Sherlock Holmes﹣﹣﹣a famous detective？Here is one of his cases．Stapleton，Charles' younger brother，found that he would inherit （继承）the Baskerville lands if Charles and his nephew（侄子）﹣﹣﹣Henry both died．Charles who had a weak heart believed super natural stories．After knowing this，Stapleton had the idea of buying a huge hound，and of using the phosphorus（磷）to make it shine like the hound in one story．Then Stapleton asked his friend Laura to write a letter to bring Charles to the moor gate on that sad night．The hound，which was shining with phosphorus，chased Charles down the Yew Alley．Charles' fear was so great that his weak heart stopped，and he died but the animal did not touch the dead body．There was no sign of murder．It was difficult for Holmes to fine the murderer．Two weeks later，Stapleton learned that Henry had reached England．He took his wife and the hound with him．He wore a false beard and followed Henry in London．He wanted to use the same way to murder Henry there．He needed something to give the hound Henry's smell，so he paid a woman at Henry's hotel to steal one of his shoes．The first one was a new one，which was no use for the hound，so it was put back．And then another older shoe was stolen．Before he was ready to murder Henry，he wasn't sure if his wife would keep his secret，so he did not tell her the truth．He locked her up in their hotel．She knew that he must have some evil plans．She sent Henry a letter which was made of words cut from a newspaper．After receiving the letter，Henry realized he was in great danger and it must have something to do with his uncle Charles' death．So he asked Holmes for help．…38．What does the underlined word " hound" in Paragraph 3mean？A．魔兽B．猎犬C．匕首D．猎枪39．Paragraph 4is mainly about．A．how Stapleton

easily．42．（8分）California Gov．Jerry Brown on Tuesday signed a law for driverless cars to travel on public roadways，showing once again that Left Coast has a way of making car﹣makers develop faster．It is not that smart minds in Japan and Germany aren't already working on driverless cars．But with most new technologies，engineers want to make sure that they are safe enough before large production．The California law will allow them to travel on the state's roadways if there is an experienced driver sitting in the driving seat to take over if needed．"Today，we're looking at science fiction becoming tomorrow's reality，" Gov．Brown said during a news conference at Google's headquarters．"This driverless car is another step forward in this long march of California and leading not just the country，but the whole world．"The state often uses stricter laws to control greenhouse gases and global warming，which was strongly against by most car﹣makers in other states，saying it would be impractical for each state to make its own fuel standards．However，the U．S．EPA （环境保护署）sided with California．At last all sides reached an agreement，but the push from California undoubtedly influenced the EPA's sharply higher fuel standards，which require car﹣makers to achieve an average of 54.5miles per gallon by 2025．When it comes to driverless cars，California is actually the third state to authorize （批准）them，behind Nevada and Florida．But by far it is the most influential．"It's meaningful because California is a big state ，a first mover and really a big player，" Ryan Calo，a law professor at the University of Washington who studies autonomous transport law，told the New York Times．42．The sentence"California，of course ，has led the way towards cleaner transport．"is the topic sentence of．A．Paragraph 2B．Paragraph 3C．Paragraph 4D．Paragraph 543．From the whole passage，what are the advantages of driverless cars in California？A．They are green and safeB．They are fast and bigC．They are green and bigD．They are fast and safe44．The last paragraph is written mainly to．A．introduce a new law signed by CaliforniaB．California is a big state and really a big playerC．California is the third state to authorize the lawD．show the influence of California's law on driverless cars45．According to the passage，we can learn．A．engineers in other countries aren't working on driverless carsB．California and the EPA reached an agreement on fuel standardsC．the developing of driverless cars in California will lead the world D．California is the first state that allows driverless cars to travel on roads四、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1分，计10分）（每空一词）46．（1分）The more you work ，the fewer mistakes you will make．（careful）47．（1分）We teenagers should use every chance to improve（we）．48．（1分）Wu Gang remained an

"hygge"．Coming from Danish culture，but popularized by the British in 2016，hygge is much more than just a word，it's becoming a feeling around the world．The hygge refers to the sense of happiness you get when your family is gathered together at new year or Christmas．It is all about the pleasant feelings of home：the smell of your mother's cooking，your partner's arm around your shoulder and so on．Hygge is an antidote（良药）to stress．You know when you've got it，a gentle warmth starts spreading through your body．Another important part of hygge is that it has nothing to do with modern technology．It's a period time to relax your tired mind and eyes．So，put down that smartphone and turn off the computer．You should also know that hygge is not about healthy eating or more exercise．In fact，it's just the opposite．You're supposed to be lost in what you like：enjoy sweet snacks and calorie﹣laden cakes freely．Let yourself be carried on a wave of nostalgia（怀旧）back to your birthplace，and remember the childhood songs of your distant youth with a smile．If it helps，wrap yourself in a warm blanket and sleep with one of your favorite books （not a pill or e﹣reader）．If Denmark seems too far，then think of old Beijing with its hutong and courtyard houses．Picture yourself sit around a traditional stove with your loved ones，eating dumplings and chatting about the old days．Let yourself drift back in time to a period where everything is relaxing，and there is no need to reply to any e﹣mails or text messages．They did not exist（存在）back then．Now you've really understood hygge without even having to set foot in Copenhagen．六、缺词填空（共10空；每空l分，计10分）（每空一词）66．（10分）Sam and Tom were identical（同样的）twins．They were so identical that even their mother found it （66）d to tell one from the

stronger would have to get a （70）b share of the wealth．Sam agreed．Their father decided to organize a competition（71）b the two．He asked the two sons to walk as long as they could，and return home before

father's wealth．Sam knew that it would be ideal to walk as far as possible till noon，and start for home at noon，as it would take the same amount of time to walk back home．（73）K this，Sam decided to turn back for home at noon so as to reach home on time．However，Tom，with his greed to earn more （74）w，didn't try to return home even after mid﹣noon．He walked twice as long as Sam，and thought he would

How can you change ________ thoughts? Many people suggest changing your attitude（态度） by thinking of something bright and happy．However, scientists from Queen's University in Canada said that there might be another way: by walking like a happy person．"It is not surprising that our mood and the way we feel affects （影响） how we walk, but we want to see whether the way we move also affects how we feel, " explained Nikolaus Troje, the lead scientist, to The Independent．Scientists believed that the way we remember emotional （令人动情的） messages is affected by our mood． Those who suffer from depression （抑郁） remember negative information far more easily than positive messages, especially when the information isabout them．In order to prove this, Troje and his team used cameras to observe 47people walking onthe treadmill （跑步机）． Half of the people were encouraged to mimic （模仿） a depressive walking style, while the other half moved like a happy person． Walking speed was kept equal for both groups．During the time on the treadmill, the scientists read out a list of positive and negative words, asking people to decide whether or not each word described themwell． Afterwards, people were asked to recite as many of the words as they could remember．As expected, those who had been mimicking a depressed walk recalled more negative words than those that had been walking in a happy manner．This finding means that our walk influences the way we process information． And the scientists believe that using a happy walking style could help with treatment for depression．（1）． Which of the following is closest in the meaning to the underlined word "negative" in the first paragraph？________A sad and inactive．B angry and nervous．C patient and straight．D lonely and boring．（2）． What new way did scientists from Queen's University possibly find to change negative thoughts？________A Doing something happy．B Walking like a happy person．C Thinking of something bright．D Thinking about being a happy person．（3）． Which of the following is NOT true about Troje's test？________A The 47people walked on the treadmill．B The two groups walked at different speeds．C Half of the people walked in a happy walking style．D Another half walked in a depressive walking style．（4）． According to the story， the finding can help ________．A improve one's living skills．B record people's happy memory．C change a person's walking habit．D treat patients with depression．19. Do you know electricity can change the way we taste food? Don't feel surprised at the fact． A special electric fork invented by Japanese researchers could make any dish taste salty．According to Hiromi Nakamura, a Post Doctor Researcher at Meiji University of Japan, the technology can be very useful for people with special eating habits． For example, the sick with high blood pressure （高血压） can easily develop a low﹣salt eating habit and still enjoy delicious food． And with the fork, there's totally no risk of over﹣salting their food． Luckily, the voltage （电压） is so small that it is safe to use the fork．The idea of adding electricity to food was first shown to public as an experiment at the Computer Human Interaction Conference in Austin, Texas, in 2012． Nakamura and her team connected a wire （导线） to a 9﹣volt battery （电池） and passed it through a straw （吸管） placed in a cup of sweet lemonade． Volunteers reported that the lemonade tasted not as sweet as it usually was, because the electricity created the taste of salt．Nakamura has improved the technology to be able to make the electricity reach the food through forks and chopsticks． "The metallic part of the fork is one electrode （电极）, and the handle is the other, " Nakamura explained． "When you take a piece of food with the fork and put it in your mouth, you connect the circuit． When you take the fork out of your mouth, you disconnect the circuit． So it actually works as a switch．"Simon Klose, TV presenter of food program Munchies, who recently visited Nakamura to try out the fork himself, then said it was one of the greatest eating experiences he'd ever had． "When I first heard of electric food, it sounded terrible．" he said． He later continued to use the fork to eat pieces of fried chicken, and found that the saltiness greatly increased as the electricity was connected．Nakamura has been eating "electric" food for the past three to four years in order to understand it better． "For me, " she said, "it may seem like we're cooking but we're actually working on the human taste．"（1）． The electric fork may be good for people who ________．A need to lose weight．B work as researchers．C show interest inphysics． D have high blood pressure．（2）． Paragraph 4mainly tells us ________．A what creates the taste of salt．B how the electric fork works．C where the electric fork was invented．D when the technology was known to public．（3）． What can we learn from the passage？________A The electric fork can create unreal taste．B A researcher from the USA invented the electric fork．C People can use the electric fork by pushing the switch．D The idea of adding electricity to food was first shown in a TV program．（4）． Which of the following would be the best title for this passage？________A A Famous Researcher．B An Interesting Experiment．C A New Invention．D A Great Eating Experience．20. You need some bread and milk． But half an hour later, you leave the supermarket with a trolley （手推车） full of food． What games do supermarkets play to make us spend so much money?The tricks usually start before you walk in． Outside the supermarket door, anybody who walks past can smell warm, fresh bread． That makes us hungry and ready to buy lots of food, not just bread．Now you're inside and, of course, a small basket would be fine, but in some supermarkets, all they have are trolleys． And of course the problem with a trolley is that it looks sad and lonely with just one or two products inside． So we may fill it with something． In fact, supermarket trolleys are actually getting bigger so that we buy more． Of course, many people shop in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in other shops． So supermarkets offer very cheap prices on some things but then have higher prices for other products． One new trick is to put red stickers （标签） on products． Customers usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red stickers are easy to be noticed, even when there is no reduction （降价）! Interestingly, this trick appears to work more with men than with women．There is a story behind the position of everything in the supermarket． Forexample, customers often go only to buy milk． So they put it right at the back, forcing you to go past hundreds of shelves full of other products． The position of products on each shelf is also important． The most expensive products are usually at eye﹣level so you see these at once． The exception is anything that children might like． These products are on lower shelves so that kids see and even reach them．Except what you see and smell in a supermarket, how about what you listen to? In most supermarkets they have soft, slow music． It's so relaxing that you slow down and spend more time （and money） in the store． You also move more slowly when the supermarket is busy． Experts suggest it's better to shop when it's quieter, on a Monday or a Tuesday for example． And be careful at the checkouts when you pay for the things you buy． These aresometimes on purpose, to make you buy something from the checkout shelves while you wait for your turn．So, next time you go into your local supermarket, remember these tricks and see if you can come out with just the things you want．（1）． Many supermarkets put red stickers on products to________．A make them look more beautiful．B make them different from cheaperones． C make people think the stickers are for men． D make people think they could save money．（2）． According to the passage， toys for children are usually placed________．A on the lower shelves．B on the back shelves．C on the front shelves．D on the higher shelves．（3）． What is the passage mainly about？________A Several rules that every business should follow．B Several ways supermarkets use to sell more products．C Some advertisements that make customers buymore． D Some advice when people go shopping in supermarkets．（4）． The writer probably agrees that ________．A people like soft and slow music in supermarkets．B things are cheaper in supermarkets than in other shops．C people should just buy things they need in supermarkets．D people should leave the supermarket with a trolley full of things．四、词汇（本题共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）A. 请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺．21. We can't imagine________ （现代的） life without cooked food and cars．22. Think twice before you buy that robot． Let's________ （比较） the prices in another store．23. Parents should teach their children to behave________ （in a right way） in public．24. Neil Armstrong was the first person to set foot on the________ （the outside or top part）of the moon．25. Liu Tao was________ from school yesterday because of illness．五、B. 请根据句意从方框中选择合适的单词，并用其适当形式填空，使句子通顺．26.（51）． In summer， we have two________ holiday． It is in July and August．（52）． Finally the two sides have reached an________．（53）． This pair of shoes is a bit too small for me． I feel________．（54）． Look!

psychologists（心理学家）say this is one of the biggest mistakes that can cause great problems to children．However，if parents are a little gentler，the child may act successfully ﹣especially if the parents can support him．Michael Li is very lucky．He is very fond of music，and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and inviting a teacher to give him personal piano lessons．They even drive him 59kilometers twice a week for violin lessons．Although Michael's mother knows very little about music，Michael's father plays the piano very well．However，he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling．Michael's friend，Winston Chen，however，is not so lucky．Although both his parents are successful musicians，they set too high a standard for Winston．They want their son to be as successful a s they are，so they enter him in every piano compeition held．They are very unhappy when he does not win．"When I was at your age，I used to win every competition I entered，" Winston's father tells him．Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint（使失望）his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy．23．One of the worst mistakes any parent can make is to．A．pay much attention to their child's educationB．push the child into trying to achieve too muchC．make their child become a musicianD．help their child to succeed in the future24．Michael Li is lucky because．A．his father knows music and teaches him muchB．his parents are rich enough to support himC．his mother doesn't know much about musicD．his parents help him in a wise way25．The two examples show that．A．it is important to let children develop in their own wayB．it is successful to let children develop without others' helpC．successful parents often have unsuccessful childrenD．the more you help your children，the less they can achieve26．（6分）Can dogs and cats get along well in the same home？People who arethinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight．A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog，and if they are introduced when still young （less than 6months for cats，a year for dogs），it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly．In two﹣thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship．However，it wasn't all sweetness and light．There was a reported coldness between the cat and the dog in 25% of the homes，while aggression （侵略，好斗）and fighting were found in 10% of the homes．One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different．For example，when a cat turns its head away it means aggression，while a dog doing the same means submission （顺从）．In homes with cats and dogs living in peace，researchers found a surprising behavior．They are learning how to talk each other's language．It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk "Dog"，and dogs can learn how to talk "Cat"．What's interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter．They can learn to read each other's body languages，suggesting that the two may have more in common than was expected．Once familiar with each other's body language，cats and dogs can play together，and enjoy sleeping together on the sofaThe importance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets ﹣to people who don't get along well，including neighbors，workmates，and even countries．If cats and dogs can learn to get along，surely people have a good chance．26．The underlined word swimmingly in Paragraph 1is closest in meaning to．A．earlyB．mostlyC．quicklyD．smoothly27．Some cats and dogs may fight when．A．they are cold to each otherB．they look away from each otherC．they misunderstand each other's body languagesD．they are introduced at an early age28．What can we humans learn from cats and dogs？A．We should learn to get along well with others．B．We should know more about animals．C．We should live in peace with animals．D．We should learn more body languages．29．（6分）Maybe it is true that we do not know what we have got until we lose it，but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives．Giving someone all your love never means that they will love you back．Do not expect love in reurn；but if it does not，be glad it grows in yours．It takes an hour to like someone，and a day to love someone，but it takes a lifetime to forget someone．Do not depend on one's appearance，it may not be true．Do not depend on wealth，even that disappears slowly．Depend on someone who makes you smile，because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright．There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug（拥抱）them．Dream what you want to dream；go where you want to go；be what you want to be，because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do．May you have enough happiness to make you sweet，enough trials（尝试）to make you strong，enough sadness to keep you human，enough hope to make you happy．Always put yourself in others' shoes．If you feel that it hurts you，it probably hurts the other person，too．The happiest people do not necessarily give the best of everything；they just make the most of everything that comes along their way．Happiness waits for those who cry，those who have been hurt，those who have searched，and those who have tried，for only they can enjoy the importance of people who have touched their lives．The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past．You cannot go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off．When you were born，you were crying and everyone around you was smiling．Live your life so that when you die，you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying．29．If you put yourself in another's position（位置），．A．you should depend on wealthB．you shouldn't do those things that will hurt you and other peopleC．you will do what you want to do however dangerous it is to peopleD．you should depend on other people30．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？A．If you give someone your love，you are sure that she will give her love to you in return．B．We often don't know what we have lost until it happens．C．If someone accepts your love and he doesn't give you his love in return，you should be angry with him．D．If it takes you an hour to love someone，you will easily forget her．31．In the last paragraph of the passage，the writer is actually telling us that a man in the world should be one who．A．can accept the suggestions made by othersB．can live happily and forget the pastC．does good to the people and wins their respectD．has made a lot of money for himself when he dies32．（8分）A popular saying goes，"Sticks and stones may break my bones，but words will never hurt me．" However，that's not really true．Words have the power to cheer us up or let us down．It doesn't matter whether the words come from someone else or ourselves ﹣the positive and negative （正面和负面）influences are just lasting．We talk to ourselves sometimes．We're usually too shy to admit（承认）it，though．In fact，we really shouldn't be because more and more scientists believetalking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit．This "self﹣talk" helps us make ourselves active，remember things，solve problems，and calm ourselves down．It is said that as much as 77% of self﹣talk is likely to be negative．So in order to stay positive，we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves．We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back．The next time you finish a project，do well in a test，or finally clean your room，join me in saying "Good job!"Often，words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the influence they will have．But we should realize that ou words cause certain influence in others．For example，when returning what we bought to a store，we might use warm，friendly language during the exchange．And the salesperson will probably answer in a similar manner．Otherwise you may get into trouble．Words have power because of their lasting influences．Many of us feel sorry for something we once said．And we remember unind words said to us! Before speaking，we should always ask ourselves：Is it true？Is it loving？Is it needed？If what we want to say doesn't pass this test，then it's better left unsaid．Words have power：both positive and negative．Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively．We can offer hope，build self﹣confidence and encourage others to do their best．Negative words destroy（毁坏）all those things．Will we use our words to hurt or to cure？The choice is ours．32．There is no need for us to feel shy when we talk to ourselves because．A．almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselvesB．talking to ourselves always gives us courageC．we may gain quite a few advantages of talking to ourselvesD．it does no harm to have "self﹣talk" when we are alone33．The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also in time．A．remind ourselvesB．praise ourselvesC．make ourselves relaxedD．give ourselves fun34．The writer would probably hold the view that．A．it is better to think twice before talking to othersB．negative words may encourage us to make more progressC．people prefer to remember friendly wordsD．encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers35．In which column（版面）of the newspaper can you most likely read this passage？A．News．B．Nature．C．Health．D．Culture．四、阅读表达（共5小题；每小题5分，满分9分）阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后的表格中填入恰当的单词，每空一词．36．（5分）Remembering names is an important social skill．Here are some ways to master it．Recite and repeat in conversation．When you hear a person's name，repeat it．Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips．You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial．Ask the other person to recite and repeat．You can let other people help you remember their names．After you've been introduced to someone，ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you．Most people will be pleased by the effort you're making to learn their names．Admit you don't know．Admitting that you can't remember someone's name can actually make people relaxed．Most o them will feel sympathy if you say，"I'm working to remember names better．Yours isright on the tip of my tongue．What is it again？"Use associations．Link each person yon meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual．For example，you could make a mental note，"Vicki Cheng ﹣﹣tall，black hair．" To reinforce the associations，write them on a small card as soon as possible．Limit the number of new names you learn at one time．When meeting a group of people，pay attention to remembering just two or three names．Free yourself from remembering every one．Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names．Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names．Last names can come later．Go early．Consider going early to conferences（会议），parties and classes．Sometimes just a few people show up on time．That's fewer names for you to remember．And as more people arrive，you can hear them being introduced to others ﹣an automatic review for you．（36）of remembering namesRecite and repeat in conversation．When you hear a person's name，say it several times．Remember （37）to move your lips．Ask the other person to recite and repeat．After others introduce you to someone，ask the person to spell the name and pronounce it in a （38）way．Admit you don't know You'd better say，"I'm working to remember namesbetter．Your name is right on the tip of m tongue．Whatis it again？"Use associations Link each person yon meet with one thing you findinteresting or unusual，e．g．Vicki Cheng ﹣tall，black hair．It means Vicki Cheng is a tall

Many of us feel uneasy when someone stands too close to us, talks to us too loudly or makes eye contact（接触） with us for too long．But have you ever wondered why those things make you uncomfortable?It's all about personal peace, which means not only an imaginary space around thebody, but also the space around all the senses．People feel that their space is being violated （侵犯） when they meet with an unwelcome sound, smell or look．This is probably why a man on a crowded bus shouting into his mobile phone or a woman next to you putting on strong perfume（香水） makes you feel angry．Whether people have had a stronger wish to protect their personal space in recent times is hard to say．Yet studies of airlines show that people have a strong desire（渴望） to have space to themselves．In a survey by TripAdvisor, a travel website, people said that if theyhad to pay more for some extra service, they would rather have larger seats than extra food． Although people may need their personal space, some hardly realize it．Forexample, people on a bus who hold newspapers in front of their faces to read in fact keep a distance from strangers．Go and watch a library table．You will notice that one of the corner seats will usually be taken first, because they are the farthest way．What if someone sits opposite to you?
