Ferry fees for group visitors can be reduced.BIs there anything more important than health？I don’t think so. You can’t be good at your studies or work when you are ill.If you have a headache，or a bad cough，if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold，I think you should go to the doctor. The doctor will examine your throat，feel your pulse，take your temperature，sound your heart and lungs. After that he will advise some treatment，or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.Speaking of doctor’s advice，I can’t help telling you a funny story. An old man came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness，memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat，drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words，the doctor advised him to follow the rule：“Eat at pleasure，drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again，he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man. “But you know，doctor，”he said，“it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”4．The writer thinks that ________.A．health is more important than wealthB．work is as important as studiesC．medicine is more important than pleasureD．nothing is more important than money5．The doctor usually tells his patient what to do ________.A．without examining the patientB．after he has examined the patientC．if the patient doesn’t take medicineD．unless the patient feels pain6．The underlined part means“________”.A．he was feeling better than everB．he wasn’t a healthy manC．he was feeling worse than before D．he will be well again7．From the last sentence of the passage，we learn the man ________ before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day.A．was a heavy smokerB．didn’t smoke so muchC．didn’t smokeD．began to learn to smokeCI once had an unforgettable experience that has influenced and directed the way I think and act now.When I was about seven years old, my grandfather took me to a fish pond on a farm and told me to throw a stone into the water. He told me to watch the circles created by the stone. Then he asked me to think of myself as that stone. “You may create lots of circles in your life, but the waves that come from those circles will disturb the peace of all your fellow people,” he said thoughtfully. “Remember that your circle may touch many other circles, meaning that your thoughts or actions may disturb others’ lives. You are responsible for what you put in your circle. You will need to live in a way that allows the good or peace that comes from your circle to be sent to others. At the same time, the anger or jealousy(嫉妒) coming from your circle also spread to other circles. You are responsible for both.”That was the first time I had realized that each person’s inner peace or discord(不和谐) can flow out into the world. If we are filled with inner conflict, doubt or anger, we cannot create world peace. We spread the feelings and thoughts that we hold inside, whether we speak them or not. Whatever circles are inside us, they are spreading into the world, creating beauty or discord with all other circles of life.8. The author’s grandfather took him/her to the fish pond to_______.A. go fishing togetherB. teach him/her a meaningful truth of lifeC. play a fun game with the authorD. correct his/her wrong doings9.What does the author want to say by telling us his unforgettable experience?A. We cannot control our feelings that disturb othersB. We shouldn’t keep in touch with other people.C. What we think and do can influ ence others’ lives.D. It’s difficult to keep a good relationship with other people.10. The author would probably agree that we should________.A. send our anger to other peopleB. share our happiness with other peopleC. complain about the misfortune in our livesD. hide our feelings and never express them to others11.What is the purpose of writing this passage?A. To teach the young people how to hold their feelings and thoughts.B. To indicate the importance of an unforgettable experience.C. To recall the experience of fishing.D. To tell people to create beauty and harmony.DWhen a storm is coming, most people leave the area as quickly as possible and head for safety. But there are a few people who will get into their cars and go straight for the center of the storm. These people are willing to risk being killed by floods or 100-kilometer-an-hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up.“Storm chasing (追逐)”is becoming an increasingly popular hobby, especially in the Midwest of the United States, where there are frequent storms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by checking the Internet for the latest weather reports, and then drives up to 1,000 kilometers to where the storm will be and waits for it to develop.Although anyone can do it, storm chasing is very dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain. If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season. Even then, storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement. “Storm chasing is 95% driving,”says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing. “Sometimes you can sit around for hours waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few light showers. ”However, for storm chasers, it is all worth it. “When you get close to a storm, it is the most exciting sight you will ever see in your life,” says Jasper Morley. “Every storm is an example of the power of nature. It is the greatest show on Earth”.12. For storm chasing, the first thing storm chasers do is to _____.A. head straight for the center of the stormB. get into the car for safetyC. wait patiently for the storm to developD. collect information about a coming storm13. Beginners of storm chasing are advised _____.A. not to drive in a heavy rainB. to do it in an organized wayC. not to get too close to a stormD. to spend more time on it in summer14. By saying “it is all worth it” in the last paragraph, the author means that _____.A. storm chasing costs a lot of moneyB. storm chasing is worth hours of waitingC. efforts in storm chasing are well paidD. a storm present is the greatest show on Earth15. What can we learn from the text?A. Sometimes storm chasers get nothing but disappointment.B. Many storm chasers get killed in the storms.C. Storm chasing is becoming popular around the world.D. Storm chasing is only fit for young people.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出的最佳选项。

英语_2018年河北省某校高考英语五模试卷含答案
2018年河北省某校高考英语五模试卷第二部分阅读理解（共两节）第一节（满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．1. We ate on the go more than ever before．Here are three health apps that can help you better manage your health when you pursue your dreams．（1）Doctors On DemandDoctors On Demand enables you to visit a doctor without ever leaving your home，helping you use a computer，tablet or smart phone to have a doctor video chat with you．The service will help you locate and connect you to licensed doctors，psychologists，pediatricians （儿科医生） and more．Fees can be paid with HAS&FSA．It costs ﹩40 for 15 minutes with a doctor or ﹩50 for 20 minutes with a psychologist．（2）Text 4 babyI'm a big fan of Text4baby for a few reasons．The free service for pregnant（怀孕的） women and new moms works by sending text messages to your smart phone three times a week with information about how to have a healthy pregnancy and baby．And the messages are timed to the pregnant woman's due date or the baby's date of birth，sending tips that are relevant to where a mother is in her pregnancy or where a baby is in stages of development．Tips range from breastfeeding to car seat safety to reminders about exercise，nutrition and more．The service combines interactive text messages，an app，video and web content in English and Spanish．Sign up by texting BABY to 511﹣411 or by downloading the app．（3）RISERISE，an app available on iPhone（coming to Android in 2016），pairs you up with （与…绑定） a registered dietitian（营养师） to improve your diet and reach health goals．You share photos of your meals and your exercise for the day with your coach，who then looks for areas where you can improve and gives advice，helps you set goals and is there to pat you on the back virtually（虚拟地） when you hit a milestone．What's also great is that you can text as much as you want with your dietitianand there is no need to go into an office．Fees for this service range from﹩9 per month to﹩50 a month．There is a free 7﹣day trial so you can try it out for a week to see if it's fit for you．（1）How much will you pay if you have a video chat with your psychologist for anhour using Doctors On Demand？________A ﹩50．B ﹩80．C ﹩100．D ﹩150．（2）We can infer that the author in Text 4 baby is probably a________．A famous pediatrician．B software engineer．C pregnant woman or new mother．D registered dietitian．（3）What do you know about Text4baby？________A It is an app available only on iPhone．B You can sign up by texting BABY to 511﹣411．C People can't use Text4baby for free．D Text messages are sent in three languages．2. 54﹣year﹣old Abdul has a special job． He has been working as a living statue for over three decades, standing perfectly still for six hours a day and resisting people's attempts to make him move or smile, anything that proves he is a living person．Abdul, known as "India's Statue Man, " has been performing his daily routine ever since1985, soon after getting a job as a security guard． His boss had recently traveled to the UK, where he was so impressed by the statue﹣like members of the Royal Guard outside Buckingham Palace that he wanted to do something similar back home． So he had his guards receive three months of training, where they would sit perfectly still for around four hours． They weren't allowed to talk or smile, eat, drink, or even shoo away a fly if it sat on their faces． In the end, Abdul proved the best of the group, so he got the strange job．Abdul isn't the only person in the world acting as a living statue, but what makes him special is the fact that he can do it for as long as six hours without even blinking his eyes． Once, a ﹩155 prize was put up for anyone who can make him move a muscle． But try as they might, no one has ever succeeded．Actually, Abdul tries to move about as much as he can in his spare time, and only eats healthy home﹣cooked food, to keep his body in shape． But he claims yoga has been the biggest help． In the 32 years, Abdul has become a celebrity in India and other Asian countries． Many Bollywood celebrities Abdul earns about 10, 000 rupees （﹩156）a month, which is enough to support his family, but definitely not enough to encourage his children to follow in his footsteps． It's just too stressful and taxing on the body． "Despite all the hardship and health problems, I love my job and I am thankful to people for the love and respect they have showered on me…he says． "When the time comes, I want to die playing a statue．"（1）What is Abdul's daily routine？________A Performing as a living statue．B Proving to be a living person．C Smiling at his customers．D Keeping his body in shape．（2）Why could Abdul get the strange job given by his boss？________A He had his special ambition．B He was most familiar with the job．C He stood out among the group．D He knew the boss more than others．（3）What does Abdul do in his spare time？________A He eats a lot of snacks．B He practices yoga for 12 hours a day．C He cooks for his family．D He always moves a lot．（4）How does Abdul feel about his job according to the text？________A It's overpaid．B It's satisfying．C It's boring．D It's instructive．3. Cycling or even walking in city areas can be a little dangerous, thanks to the fact that one is sharing the road with vehicles that are increasingly getting larger and heavier． A recent study proves that of the 1.27 million people that die in road traffic crashes each year, about half are walkers, motorcyclists and cyclists． Now there may be a solution that could provide at least some help to protect this helpless group…an airbag!If you are worried that this safety measure will involve you taking around a heavy package or worse still, wrapping yourself inside an ugly plastic bag, the bag is fitted not on the human, but on the outside of the vehicle． And, while there are several versions of the idea in the works, the one most recently unveiled （揭露） by Dutch car company TNO, seems to be the most advanced and ready to go into production．In the works since 2011, the airbag covers only the lower part of the windshield． Thiswill provide the much needed buffer （缓冲） between the person's head and the pane of glass he/she would otherwise meet．The chain of events leading to an airbag cause are quite simple﹣﹣﹣A camera fitted beneath the rear﹣view mirror monitors the vehicle's closeness to a walker or cyclist． Any contact with either one of them sets off the sensors in the car's bumper and quickly blows up the airbag． In addition to that the sensors also set off the car's automatic brake, reducing the chances if an even worse injury．In tests conducted using a model, the success of not getting injured after being hit by a car travelling at about 40km/h was about 50﹣50! While not perfect, it will still result in reducing the number of deaths by a huge amount．With TNO ready to license its technology to car makers and many more companies trying to develop similar concepts, we would not be surprised if outer airbags become a standard feature in every car pretty soon．（1）Why does the airbag cover the lower part of the windshield？A． To protect the windshield from being destroyed．________B To make the vehicle look beautiful．C To reduce the weight of walkers．D To prevent people's head crashing on the glass．（2）The fourth paragraph is mainly about________．A how the airbag works．B where the airbag is fixed．C why the airbag is safe．D what the airbag is made up of．（3）The writer thinks the airbag of TNO________．A perfect．B practical．C expensive．D useless．（4）What is the main idea of the passage？________A Airbags are a new standard feature in cars．B Airbags are much safer for drivers now．C Airbags are practical for walkers and cyclists．D Airbags are a solution to higher car accident rates．4. As any plane passenger will confirm, a crying baby is almost impossible to ignore, no matter how hard you try． Now scientists believe they may have worked out why． A baby's cry pulls at the heartstrings （扣人心弦） in a way while other cries don't, researchers found．Researchers found that a baby's cry can ________ unique emotional responses in the brain, making it impossible for us to ignore them﹣﹣﹣whether we are parents or not． Other types of cries, including calls of animals in great pain, fail to get the same response﹣﹣﹣suggesting the brain is programmed to respond specifically to a baby's cry． A team of Oxford University scientists scanned the brains of 28 men and women as they listened to a variety of calls and cries． After 100milliseconds, two parts of the brain that respond to emotion lit up． Their response to a baby's cry was particularly strong． The response was seen in both men and women﹣even if they had no children．Researcher Dr, Christine Parsons said, "You might read that men should just notice a baby and step over it and not see it, but it's not true． There is a special processing in men andwomen, which makes sense from an evolutionary view that both men and women would be responding to these cries, " The study involved people who were not parents, yet they are all responding quickly to these particular cries so this might be a fundamental response present in all of us regardless of parental status．Researcher Katie Young said it may take a bit longer for someone to recognize their own child's cries because they need to do more "fine﹣grained analysis"． The team had previously found that our reactions speed up when we hear a baby crying． Adults performed better on computer games when they were played the sound of a baby crying than after they heard recordings of adults crying or high﹣pitched （高音的）birdsong． The findings could help shed light on post﹣natal （产后的） depression﹣﹣﹣where mothers struggle to bond with their newborn﹣﹣﹣by showing how a healthy brain responds to a baby's cries．（1）A baby's cry is difficult to ignore because it________．A keeps on crying．B cries harder than adults．C causes people greatpain． D makes people feel strong emotions．（2）The underlined word "trigger" in Paragraph 2 probably means "________"．A remove．B avoid．C cause．D cure．（3）What may Christine Parsons agree to？________A Almost everyone makes certain response to a baby's cries．B A crying baby makes no sense to people without children．C Men pay less attention to a crying baby than women．D Parents can hardly recognize their own babies' cry．（4）Computer games are mentioned in the text to show________．A players' different reactions to a crying baby．B baby's crying contributes to quicker reactions．C the influence of baby's and adult's crying on performance．D it's hard to keep one's concentration with a crying baby nearby．第二节（共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．选项中有两项为多余选项．5.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

them.However,using one of these phrases correctly when speaking or writing to an English speaker is very impressive and shows that you are comfortable with the language.Here are some wonderful and interesting British e them wisely.When pigs fly!This expression is one of my favorites and I use it all the time.It is used primarily when speaking, meaning that something is extremely unlikely or impossible.For example,“I will forgive him when pigs fly!”“When do you think you will get a gym membership,Lucy?”“When pigs fly!”A penny for your thoughts?This question is used in a situation where someone appears thoughtful or is very quiet seeming lostin thought.But remember that you don't actually have to pay them a penny if they do tell you what is going on!For example,“You've been a bit quiet this evening,Pete.A penny for your thoughts?”It's the bee's kneesThe phrase dates back to the1920s,and refers to an extraordinary person,thing,idea,and so on.For example,“Try this chocolate.It's the bee's knees.”To feel a bit under the weatherI use this expression in many different situations but most use it to refer to feeling ill,or unwell.You would not use this phrase if you were feeling extremely unwell.It is only for those times when you are feeling a little ill or suffering from something slightly like a cold or a cough.However,this can also be used to refer to feeling emotionally low.（1）（2分）What will you say if you think something is special?A．When pigs fly!B．A penny for your thoughts?C．It's the bee's knees D．To feel a bit under the weather.（2）（2分）Which of the following sentence can replace“A penny for your thoughts?”A．What can I do for you?B．What are you thinking about?C．How are you feeling?D．How do you like it?（3）（2分）Why does the author write the passage?A．To introduce some useful idioms.B．To show how to remember idioms.C．To tell people the importance of idioms.D．To arouse the interest in idioms.3．（8分）阅读理解I look around and can't recognize where I am.It seems familiar but distant.I see my friends gather by a stage where music is playing and I run over.As I begin running towards them,they become further and further away.I keep calling them,but no one hears me.I start hearing a distant alarm-like sound and I am transported away.I woke up in a daze sitting in my bed.“Oh,it was only a dream,”I said to myself.I have always had vivid and intense dreams.It feels like I haven't even slept because I have been living out my dreams during my sleep.Today,dreaming is being studied even more than ever.Some say that dreams are how your receptors make sense of random thoughts while you sleep.Some say that you can't dream of a face you have never seen before,so everyone you see in your dreams you have at least laid eyes on at one time or another.Other people think dreams are ways of expressing stress or internal feelings you may be experiencing.A lot of people say that they have dreams about being chased.A common interpretation of the“being chased”dream is that you are feeling threatened.Some dream interpretation websites say you should try to reflect on what or who is chasing you to get a better idea of what is making you feel this way.Another dream that is often experienced is flying.This dream has a much more positive interpretation,which is that you are feeling free or have broken out of a bad situation such as a relationship turned sour or a job you hate.Unfortunately,you may forget half of your dream within five minutes of waking up and within10 minutes,you usually forget90percent of it.Dreamologists,people who devote time to the study and interpretation of dreams,suggest if you want to try to remember and study your dreams you should keep a journal beside your bed and write down what you dreamt as soon as you wake up so you can reflect on it later.（1）（2分）What does the author think of his dreams?A．They have influenced his sleep.B．They reproduce his real life scene.C．They are just his random thoughts.D．They are unbelievable and ridiculous.（2）（2分）In which situation do dreams of“being chased”probably occur?A．You are feeling free.B．You just quit a job you hate.C．You lack the sense of security.D．Your friends keep you at a distance.（3）（2分）Why should we keep a journal beside our bed?A．To reflect on our dreams.B．To avoid forgetting our dreams.C．To help us sleep well without dreams.D．To help us get out of the tense dreams.（4）（2分）Where is the passage probably taken from?A．A news report.B．A fiction book.C．An ad website.D．A science newspaper.4．（8分）阅读理解When we think of a generation gap we usually think of conflicting tastes in music,or pastimes.But now the generation gap is handwriting.After one teacher in Tennessee discovered that she had students who couldn't read the assignments she was writing on the board,she posted it on the Internet saying handwriting should be taught in schools.Opponents claim that handwriting has become out of time in our modern world.Typed words have become a primary form of communication.Once a practical skill,handwriting is no longer used by the vast majority of Americans.It is no longer taught in schools,and some claim that the time that it would take to teach it could be put to better use,for instance,by teaching the technical skills.But even in today's world there are still plenty of reasons to pick up a pen and apply it to paper. Many American institutions still require original signatures,for instance,signing for a registered letter and buying a house.And original signatures are much more difficult to forge（伪造）than their digital counterparts. There is also strong evidence that writing by hand is good for the mind.It activates a different part of the brain,and improves fine moving skills in young children.People also tend to remember what they write by hand more than what they type,and the process of writing by hand has been shown to stimulate ideas.Not only that,studies have shown that kids who write by hand learn to read and spell earlier than those who don't. Not to mention,handwriting is pleasing,as is evidenced by the fact that no one has ever typed a love letter. And handwriting remains popular as an art form.Yes we live in a modern world,but we live in a modern world that is based on fundamental values.（1）（2分）What did the teacher find in her class?A．Her students had a big generation gap with her.B．Her handwriting was too terrible to understand.C．Some students could not recognize her handwriting on the blackboard.D．Some students'handwriting on the blackboard was too difficult to tell.（2）（2分）Why do some people agree to teach handwriting in school?A．Handwriting is very easy to remember.B．Handwriting is beneficial to the brain.C．Handwriting can help one buy a house.D．Handwriting is an art form out of time.（3）（2分）What can we infer from the passage?A．What people write by hand is not easy to fake.B．Lovers often write love letters to each other.C．Handwriting is unnecessary in our modern society.D．Technical skills are more important than handwriting.（4）（2分）What is the authors attitude towards teaching handwriting in school? A．Opposed.B．Objective.C．Unconcerned.D．Supportive.5．（8分）阅读理解China officially informed the World Trade Organization on Tuesday that it will ban the import of24 different types of solid waste by the end of this year as part of a campaign to deal with environmental pollution and protect people's health.In response to growing public concerns over the potential environmental and health danger caused by the increasing amounts of solid waste imported into the country for recycling and treatment,China passed a special law in1995to control imports of waste materials,such as plastics,slag from steelmaking,unsorted scrap paper and discarded textile materials.A year later,the country published a list for solid waste imports and began implementing a permit system to control the import volumes and types of waste imported.However,due to the lack of effective supervision（监管）and the failure of relevant departments to fulfill their duties,solid waste imports have not been effectively controlled.So far,China is the world's largest importer of solid waste.According to the Ministry of Environmental Protection,China imported7.3million metric tons of plastic waste worth$3.7billion in2016, accounting for56percent of global imports of solid waste.Correct recycling of solid waste materials is an important part of the global economy,and moderate imports of scrap plastic,scrap paper and scrap rubber products,such as vehicle tires,can to some extent, make up for China's shortage of various raw materials.However,the lack of supervision has resulted in the country's severe soil and environmental worsening.Given that China's continuing efforts to push for industrial transformation and upgrading have resulted in a noticeable decline in the demand for the materials recycled from solid waste imports.It is right for the country to restrict such imports for the sake of the environment and public health,and to better adapt to the changed industrial structure.（1）（2分）Why will China ban the import of some waste materials?A．The amount of imported solid waste is increasing.B．The demand for imported solid waste is in decline.C．Some solid waste has damaged the environment and public health.D．People are more concerned about the environment and health now.（2）（2分）Which phrase has the same meaning as the underlined word?A．Carrying out.B．Putting off.C．Calling off.D．Fighting against.（3）（2分）What is the problem when China deals with the imported waste?A．Some imported waste is difficult to control.B．The environment can't afford the imported waste.C．Some departments haven't shouldered their duties.D．Some useful materials are also among the solid waste.（4）（2分）What can we learn from the passage?A．China will not rely on importing solid waste any more.B．Solid waste plays an important part in the global economy.C．People are against importing solid waste from developed countries.D．Some imported waste can release the urgent need for raw materials.三、任务型阅读(共1题；共10分)6．（10分）任务型阅读While everyone overthinks situations once in a while,some people are troubled by thinking all the time.Overthinkers rethink conversations they had yesterday,second-guess every decision they make,and imagine disastrous outcomes-all day.Their minds are like a movie where they imagine their car going off the road or they replay distressing events over and over again.Keep the focus on problem-solvingKeeping the focus on your problems isn't helpful-but looking for solutions is.If it's something you have some control over,consider how you can prevent the problem or challenge yourself to identify five potential solutions.If it's something you have no control over-like a natural disaster—think about the strategies you can use to cope with it.Schedule time for reflectionWorrying about your problems for long periods of time isn't productive,but brief reflection can behelpful.Thinking about how you could do things differently or recognizing potential traps to your plan, could help you perform better in the future.Add15minutes of“thinking time”into your daily schedule.During that time let yourself worry,or think about whatever you want.Learning mindfulness skillsIt's impossible to rehash（反复推敲）yesterday or worry about tomorrow when you're living in the present.Mindfulness will help you become more aware of the here and now.There are classes,books,apps,courses,and videos available to help you learn mindfulness skills.Do this in your brain by changing your activity.Exercise,engage yourself in a conversation on a completely different subject,or work on a project that draws away your attention.Doing something different will put an end to the negative thoughts.A.Change the channel.B.Change your attitude.C.Focus on the things you can control,like your attitude and effort.D.Just like any other skill,mindfulness takes practice,but over time,it can decrease overthinking.E.Overthinking can become such a habit that you don't even recognize when you're doing it.F.There are four tips that can help you stop overthinking.G.When your time is up,move onto something else.四、短文改错(共1题；共5分)7．（5分）假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

Other days of the week she would spend two hours on three buses from her apartment to get to the other work, for a four-hour round trip.That was the “before” part of her life. The “after” part of her life was started by the community Police Officer Trevor Arnold, who delivered a used car to her with the help of a car dealer and other donors.Arnold, who spotted Meade, red and sweaty, riding her bike in the worst heat this summer, decided he would het her a car. He intended to quietly buy her a used car out of his own pocket so he turned to his friend Kody Slaght, a car salesman to ask about a car priced $1,000. That wasn’t enough f or a reliable ride, Slaght said, but the dealership said they would find a good car for her at a good price. Soon others were donating.

Some are sweet but some are nightmares.Almost all researchers in sleep explain that nightmares are a reaction to negative experiences that happen during waking hours. However, some of them believe that nightmares do have some real benefits. One 2017 study, for example, found that frequent nightmare sufferers rated themselves as more empathetic（共鸣的）.They also displayed more of a tendency to unconsciously mirror other people through things like yawning. People who have constant nightmares also tend to think further outside the box on psychoanalysis tasks. Some other researchers have found support for the idea that nightmares might be linked to creativity.People seeking cure for nightmares were not necessarily more fearful or anxious, but rather had a general sensitivity to all emotional experience. Sensitivity is the driving force behind intense dreams. Heightened sensitivity to threats or fear during the day results in bad dreams and nightmares, whereas heightened passion or excitement may result in more intense positive dreams. And both these forms of dreams may feed back into waking life, perhaps increasing suffering after nightmares, or promoting social bonds and empathy after positive dreams.The effects go further still. This sensitivity overflows over into perceptions and thoughts: people who have a lot of nightmares experience a dreamlike quality to their waking thoughts. And this kind of thinking seems to give them a creative edge. For instance, studies show that such people tend to have greater creative talent and artistic expression. And people who often have nightmares also tend to have more positive dreams than the average person.The evidence points towards the idea that, rather than disturbing normal activity, people who are unfortunate in having a lot of nightmares also have a dreaming life that is at least as creative, positive and vivid as it can be distressing and terrifying. What’s more, this imaginative richness is unlikely to be limited to sleep, but also is filled with waking thought and daydreams. Even after people wake up and shake off the nightmare, in other words, a mark of it stays behind, possessing them throughout the day.（1）What do most sleep researchers think of nightmares?A . They have no advantages at all.B . They make people more empathetic.C . They can prom ote human’s creativity.D . They are a reflection of waking behaviour.（2）How can nightmare sufferers probably stop nightmares in theory according to the text?A . Try to reduce sensitivity to threats or fear.B . Be more fearful or anxious to nightmares.C . Avoid excitement as much as possible.D . Promote social bonds and empathy.（3）What does the underlined word “perception” in Paragraph 3 mean?A . Content.B . Awareness.C . Intelligence.D . Determination.（4）What can be the best title for the text?A . The Benefits of NightmaresB . The Solution of NightmaresC . The Empathy of NightmaresD . The Tendency of Nightmares5. 阅读理解Sometimes I have to admire people’s imagination but what I admiremost is the businessmen’s sense of smell. China’s Singles Day, which falls on Nov. 11 every year, has far surpassed its U.S. counterparts of Black Friday and Cyber Monday—combined. Last year, Americans spent a record $12.8 billion online between Thanksgiving Day and Cyber Monday. It’s impressive until you compare it to the $17.6 billion in sales made by Chinese consumers in a single 24-hour period during 2016’s Singles Day.Singles Day is known as “Bare Sticks Day” or “Bare Branches Day” in Chinese—because the date “11/11” looks like bare branches and “one” is the loneliest number. Singles Day began in the early 1990s in the dorm rooms of Nanjing University when a group of single friends were sorry about the lack of significant others and decided to mark the day by organizing activities as a group of singles and reducing their loneliness by buying themselves a gift.Then in 2009, sensing s break between the sales period of China’s National Day on Oct. 1 and Chinese New Year in late January or early February, Alibaba’s Jack Ma saw an opening: sell to comfort lonely hearts.The first year did only $7.5 million in sales, but just 8 years later, shoppers spent $25.3 billion, or 168.2 billion yuan, this year—a 40 percent jump from last year’s $17.6 billion. Foe comparison, Black Friday and Cyber Monday in the U.S. only netted $6.79 billion in 2016. Amazon doesn’t release sales figures for July’s Prime Day, but it’s pretty safe to believe the not-quite-national-holiday doesn’t come close to $25 billion.“More than $25 billion in one day is not just a sales figure,” Alibaba Group CEO Daniel Zhang said in a statement. “It represents the desire forquality consumption of the Chinese consumer, and it reflects how merchants and consumers alike have now fully accepted the combination of online and offline sales.”（1）What does the underl ined word “pothers” refer to in Paragraph 2?A . Roommates.B . Good friends.C . Boyfriends or girlfriends.D . Relatives.（2）What is the original purpose of China’s Singles Day?A . To promote the online sale of goods.B . To reduce loneliness of singles in China.C . To create a holiday for all Chinese youth.D . To find boyfriends or girlfriends for singles.（3）China’s Singles Day became consumers’ day in ______.A . 2009B . 2016C . 2017D . the early 1990s（4）Which of the following words can describe Daniel Z hang’s attitude to online sales?A . Confused.B . Optimistic.C . Worried.D . Indifferent.三、任务型阅读6. 任务型阅读Moving to a foreign country is an amazing, life-changing experience. There are some practical decisions that need to be made.________For me, choosing to live with a French with a French family was the best choice I made, and here is why.________When you’re in a new environment with people you don’t know who are speaking a language you’re still not fluent in, you might feel lost, tired and homesick—I know I did.________They showed me which buses totake to get to work, cooked dinner for me so we could eat together, and took me with them on trips to the beach, the theatre and even a bullfight. These were great opportunities to experience French culture and build relationships. They helped me feel more comfortable and welcome.Living with French people has improved my language skills. Being constantly exposed to real French conversation has allowed me to learn new phrases, widen my vocabulary and even improve my accent. My host family are happy to answer my questions and correct me when I say things wrong.________ The experience of living abroad is one that you will remember forever. Perhaps the friendships, like the memories, will also last.________You might return for their birthdays, weddings, holidays, and much more. I hope to remain in contact with my host family long after I leave France because when I was away from my friends and loves ones, they welcomed me and made me part of their family.A. One such decision is choosing where to live.B. You can stay in your own space and privacy.C. Your host family might become your life-long friends.D. It makes me a better and more confident French speaker.E. However, my host family was wonderful and welcoming.F. A family can help you settle in, stopping you from feeling lonely.G. It’s an opportunity to meet new people, a different culture and another language.四、短文改错7. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

You get anxious if there’s no wi﹣fi in the hotel or mobile phone signal up the mountain． You feel upset if your phone is getting low on power, and you secretly worry things will go wrong at work if

more autonomy（自主权）in their working lives and enabled them to spend more time with their friends and families． For many others though, smart phones have become tyrants（暴君）in their pockets, never allowing themto turn them off, relax and recharge their batteries．Pittsburgh﹣based developer Kevin Holesh was worried about how much he was ignoringhis family and friends in favour of his iPhone． So he developed an app ﹣ Moment ﹣ to monitor his usage． The app enables users to see how much time they’re spending on the device and set up warnings if the usage limits are breached（突破）．“Moment’s goal is to promote balance in your life, ” his website explains．“Some time on your phone, some time off it enjoying your loving family and friends around you．”Dr． Christine Grant, an occupational（职业的）psychologist at Coventry University, said, “The effects of this ‘always on’ culture are that your mind is never resting, and you’re not giving your body time to recover,so you’re always stressed． And the more tired and stressed we get, the more mistakes we make． Physical and mental health can suffer．”And as the number of connected smart phones is increasing, so is the amount of data． This is leading to a sort of decision paralysis（瘫痪）and is creating more stress in the workplace because people have to receive a broader range of data and communications which are often difficult to manage．“It actually makes it more difficult to make decisions and many do less because they’re controlled by it a ll and fell they can never escape the office, ” said Dr． Christine Grant．（1）What’s the first paragraph mainly about？________A.The popularity of smart phones．B.The progress of modern technology．C.The signs of “always on” stress．D.The cause of smart phone

iPhone． So he developed an app ﹣ Moment ﹣ to monitor his usage．” 可知Kevin Holesh 发明了“Moment”是为了帮助人们控制使用手机．故选B．（3）D．态度观点题．根据文章第四段可知Dr． Christine Grant说的话：这种总是在线文化使你的大脑得不到休息，不能给你的身体时间去回复，所以你总是处于紧张状态．这样有损你的身心健康．可知他抱有批判的态度．故选D．（4）A．推理判断题．根据文章最后一段This is leading to a sort of decision paralysis（瘫痪） and is creating more stress in the workplace

Beijing’s Forbidden City, once home to royal families of the Ming and Qing dynasties, isa place full of wonder．From its thousands of rooms to its many beautiful artifacts（工艺品）, no wonder it’s one of China’s most popular tourist destinations now．But even more than 600 years after it was built, it’s still managing to serve up surprises．Since it was built during the Ming Dynasty, it’s estimated that the Forbidden City has survived more than 200 earthquakes．And while most structures aren’t made t o survive natural disasters, let alone ones built hundreds of years ago, it seems that the Forbidden City was built to stand anything．A recent television documentary（纪录片）by UK broadcaster Channel 4explored the skills of the ancient building’s designer s．A group of Chinese carpenters and engineers were shown building a model of one of the Forbidden City’s palaces, at one fifth of the size．To show how strong ancient Chinese architecture really is, the model was put to the test．It was subjected to a simulated（模拟的）earthquake of 9.5 on the Richter scale（里氏震级）﹣the largest ever recorded quake﹣and survived．Instead of falling apart, the model was just moved gently during the test．According to experts, the answer to the Forbidden City’s strength, as well as other ancient Chinese structures’, lies in brackets or dougong﹣a centuries﹣old building method invented in China．Despite being held together without any nails or glue, the brackets are perfect at keeping structures together when the weather gets rough．“Dougong design is an important earthquake﹣resistant feature of classical Chinese structures because the framework changes in shape when under pressure, much like the shock absorbers（减震器）of a car．”according to Chinese National Geography．“Ancient Chinese craftsmen created structures that were both strong and pleasing to theeye, showing their advanced understanding of mathematics, architecture, materials, and structural science．”The Forbidden City draws visitors because of its rich history and cultural significance, but perhaps it should add one more thing to its list of attractions: earthquake shelter．（1）What happened to the model during the test？________A.It fell apart．B.It was destroyed．C.It moved slightly．D.It remained unchanged．（2）What made the Forbidden City resist earthquake？________A.The shock absorbers．B.Special building materials．C.Beautiful artifacts．D.Dougong design．（3）What can be inferred from the text？________A.Dougong design was thought highly of by the author．B.The Forbidden City will serve as an earthquake shelter soon．C.Dougong design can date back to the Ming Dynasty．D.The Forbidden City has been a tourist destination since it was built．【答案】CDA【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文介绍了紫禁城可以抵御地震侵袭而保持结构稳定的原因﹣﹣一种斗拱的建筑方法．【解答】（1）C．细节理解题．由第四段Instead of falling apart，the model was just moved gently during the test．．模型在测试期间只是轻轻地移动，而不是分崩离析．故选C．（2）D．细节理解题．由第五段the answer to the Forbidden City’s strength，as well as other ancient Chinese structures’，lies in brackets or dougong﹣a centuries﹣old building method invented in China．紫禁城的力量，以及其它中国古代建筑抗震的答案，都在中国发明的一种有几百年历史的建筑方法﹣﹣斗拱中．故选D．（3）A．理解推断题．由倒数第二段Dougong design is an important earthquake﹣resistant feature of classical Chinese structures ，斗拱设计是中国古典建筑的重要抗震特征．可知斗拱设计深受作者推崇，故选A．第二节（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．选项中有两项为多余选项．Nothing is more important to academic achievement than being a good

There’s no denying that outdoor play helps a lot!Times when children have to wait for their turns on playground equipment and following the playground rules by sharing, all these form components of a healthy social-emotional development. Young children develop their social-emotional skills through practice and small steps over time.As parents or caregivers, it is fairly simple to support your child’s social-emotional skills. Acts like holding him, touching him, and speaking to him and giving him loving care and attention are all helping factors. When you allow them freedom to play, it is important to follow their interests in helping build their social-emotional skills.Difficulties in social-emotional skills can often lead to children having trouble when playing with other children. Becoming easily angry or not empathizing with other children are all signs that may point in this direction. This can in turn lead to them not empathizing with the needs of other children.As for the development of cognitive skills, these develop through practice and opportunity over time. And while some cognitive skills may be genetic, most are learned through real life situations. In other words, learning and thinking skills can be improved through experiences.To enable them to learn, it is important that we are mindful of what our children are interested in. And this realization is only set in place once the child is given enough room and time to grow and explore.Depriving children of such experiences can mean that they might struggle with higher- level thinking skills. And while it is normal to keep them safe, we forget that by rushing them and cutting down on play time, we’re actually causing more harm than good.（1）What can playing with other children greatly help children do?A . Learn from other children.B . Develop their social emotion.C . Promote their personal hobbies.D . Help them to control their emotion.（2）What usually brings trouble to a child while playing with other children?A . Not understanding others.B . Caring too much about others.C . Lacking social emotional skills.D . Being more selfish than selfless.（3）What does the underlined word “depriving” in the last paragraphmean?A . Taking away.B . Providing for.C . Referring to.D . Focusing on.（4）What is the main purpose of the text?A . To call on us to promote children’s interest.B . To show us the importance of social emotions.C . T o tell us how to improve children’s social emotions.D . To persuade parents to allow their children to play outdoors.4. 阅读理解After spending three months in and out of the hospital with numerous health issues, Donald Austin had his leg partially cut off. He was relieved to finally be able to go home after just four days recovering from the operation. When he reached his porch, though, the joy drained away.Donald thought he’d be able to make it up the steps to the front door on crutches, but his strength and balance weren’t as strong as he’d hoped. The wheelchair was too heavy for his wife, Jennifer Austin, to lift up the steps, even when his mom offered a hand to help. Donald ended up on the concrete, the family feeling totally at a loss. They were out of strength and out of options. Just then, a car caught the family’s eyes. It had driven past once bu t was slowly circling back. The stranger, Steven Smith, pulled up and asked if he could help. Relieved, the family watched Smith lift Donald inside and lay him safely on a couch.But the Good Samaritan knew there was more to do. Smith figured this wasn’t the only time Donald would need to climb those steps. So the next day, Smith, who’s an ordinary worker, came back and asked if he could build aramp in front of the house. With his dad and a couple more helping hands, Smith set up a ramp over the steps to make the home wheelchair accessible. The act of kindness brought the family to tears.“This stranger has saved the day for us twice within 24 hours. He also brightened our spirits that had become increasingly dimmed over the difficult months,” Jennifer wrote on Facebook. “There is a sense of optimism back in our home because of his kindness.”（1）Why did Donald have his leg cut off?A . He fell off his wheelchair.B . He received a bad operation.C . He was caught in a traffic accident.D . He suffered from different diseases.（2）How did Austin feel when they returned home?A . Sad.B . Excited.C . Hopeful.D . Interested.（3）What’s the trouble for the Austin’s when they got back home?A . No one came to offer the family a helping hand.B . They couldn’t get Donald to stand up on his two legs.C . It was impossible for them to get the wheelchair into the house.D . After the operation Donald was still too weak to move by himself.（4）What did Steven Smith bring to the Austin family?A . Happiness and love.B . Comfort and happiness.C . Spirits and Confidence.D . Optimism and convenience.5. 阅读理解If you want to slow aging, you might want to eat less. This finding is good news—if you were a mouse. The researchers studied mice, not people.John Price and other researchers studied two groups of mice. One group was able to eat as much as it wanted. The researchers limited what the mice in the other group ate. Their diet had 35 percent fewer calories than the first group of mice.Price says the mice with the diet restrictions were “more energetic and suffered fewer diseases.” They were not just living longer but seemed to stay younger for a longer period of time.The researchers found that fewer calories slow down a natural mechanism in cells called ribosomes. Price explains that ribosomes are responsible for making important proteins in the cells. But with fewer calories, they slow down. This gives the cells more time to repair themselves.The researchers say ribosomes use from 10 to 20 percent of the cell’s energy to make those proteins. Price wrote that “because of this, it is impractical to destroy an entire ribosome” when it starts to break down. However, “repairing individual parts of the ribosome on a regular basis enables ribosomes to continue producing high quality proteins for longer than they would otherwise. This top quality production, in turn, keeps cells and the entire body functioning well.”Price said, “ribosome is a very complex machine, like a car.” They need “maintenance to replace the parts that wear out the fastest. When tires wear out,” he explained, “you don’t throw the whole car away and buy a new one. It costs less to replace the old tires.”“Food,” he said, “isn’t just material to be burned—it’s a signal thattells our body and cells how to respond.” Price said the findings help to explain how exactly our bodies age. And this may “help us make more educated decisions about what we eat.”（1）What can we know about the mice with limited calories from the study?A . They can keep healthy easily.B . They need more energy to be active.C . They can look younger than they are.D . They will live a longer life like humans.（2）What will happen to ribosomes if there are fewer calories?A . They will completely break down.B . They make proteins in the cells slowly.C . They will produce high quality proteins more.D . They may need more time to repair themselves.（3）Price explain ed the ribosomes’ role of repairing themselves by .A . telling a storyB . listing basic dataC . making comparisonsD . experimenting on mice（4）What does the text mainly deal with?A . Food decides how long you live.B . Can you slow down your aging process?C . Eating less may help you live longer.D . Should your diet be reduced for your health?三、七选五6. 任务型阅读Do you remember the last time you read a book, or a magazine? Is checking e-mails or updating microblog your daily reading habit? If you’re one of th ose who don’t make a habit of reading regularly, you might be reallyout.________Stress ReductionNo matter how much pressure you have at work, in your personal relationships, or other issues in daily life, it all just slips away when you lose yourself in a great story.________KnowledgeEverything you read fills your head with new information, and you never know when it might come into use.________Besides, you might lose everything else—your job, your money, even your health, but knowledge can never be taken from you.Vocabulary Expansion________As a result, this will gradually enlarge your everyday vocabulary. Then you might become more knowledgeable and well-spoken, which can increase your self confidence and even help you get promotions more quickly.Better Writing SkillsExposure to well-written work has a great effect on your own writing.

Here are some benefits of reading.B. Here are some suggestions for your health.C. The more you read, the more words you gain exposure to.D. This goes hand-in-hand with the expansion of your vocabulary.E. A well-written novel can bring you pleasure, and allow you to relax.F. The more knowledge you have, the better-equipped you are for your life.G. That is why beginners always learn how to write by reading the works of others.四、短文填空7. 语法填空Classical Chinese poetry is traditional Chinese poetry written in Classical Chinese and typified by certain traditional ________.

Other days of the week she would spend two hours on three buses from her apartment to get to the other work, for a four-hour round trip.That was the “before” part of her life. The “after” part of her life was started by the community Police Officer Trevor Arnold, who delivered a used car to her with the help of a car dealer and other donors.Arnold, who spotted Meade, red and sweaty, riding her bike in the worst heat this summer, decided he would get her a car. He intended to quietly buy her a used car out of his own pocket so he turned to his friend Kody Slaght, a car salesman to ask about a car priced $1,000. That wasn’t enough for a reliable ride, Slaght said, but the dealership said they would find a good car for her at a good price. Soon others were donating. Slaght and Arnold wouldn’t say how much the car cost, but the value is about 4,000.Arnold said he was motivated by Meade’s work ethic（职业道德）to help. “I see a lot of hardworking people nut that’s when they are at work. Can you imagine spending four hours of your day getting to and from work?” he said.Meade’s boss said she was awesome and really reliable when she worked and s he got along with others. “She’s willing to rise the three buses to get in here on her day off if we need her too.”Meade said she was planning to buy a car, “but I haven’t been able to afford it,” she said. “Trevor, he is a very good guy. I did not expect this.”（1）What can we learn about Jo Meade’s work?A . It’s free but low-paid.B . It’s not worth her devotion.C . It’s competitive and high-paid.D . It’s time-consuming on the road.（2）Why did Slaght disagree to Arnold’s buying a car priced $1,000?A . The car wa s too expensive for Meade.B . The car was beyond Arnold’s affordability.C . The car had been donated to another person.D . The car was not in good condition of driving.（3）What inspired Arnold to buy a car for Meade?A . His sympathy for Meade.B . His duty as a policeman..C . Her commitment to work.D . Her desire for a better life..（4）What’s Meade’s feeling for the donated c ar?A . Normal.B . Surprised.C . Embarrassed.D .

S. counterparts of Black Friday and Cyber Monday—combined Last year,Americans spent a record $ 12.8 billion online between Thanksgiving Day and Cyber Monday. It’s impressive until you compare it to the $ 17.6 billion in sales made by Chinese consumers in a single 24-hour period during 2016’s Singles Day.Singles Day is known as “Bare Sticks Day” or “Bare Branches Day” in Chinese-because the date “11/11” looks like bare branches and “one” is the loneliest number. Singles Day began in the early 1990s in the dorm rooms of Nanjing University when a group of single friends were sorry about the lack of significant others and decided to mark the day by organizing activities as a group of singles and reducing their loneliness by buying themselves a gift.Then in 2009, sensing a break between the sales period of China’s National Day on Oct. 1 and Chinese New Year in late January or early February, Alibaba’s Jack Ma saw an opening: sell to comfort lonely hearts.The first year did only $7.5 million in sales, but just 8 years later, shoppers spent $ 25.3 billion, or 168.2 billion yuan, this year—a 40 percent jump from last year’s $ 17.6 billion. For comparison, Black Friday and Cyber Monday in the U. S. only netted $ 6.79 billion in 2016. Amazon d oesn’t release sales figures for July’s Prime Day, but it’s pretty safe to believe the not-quite-national-holiday doesn’t come close to $ 25 billion.“More than $ 25 billion in one day is not just a sales figure,” Alibaba Group CEO Daniel Zhang said in a statement. “It represents the desire for quality consumption of the Chinese consumer, and it reflects how merchants and consumers alike have now fully accepted the combination of online andoffline sales.”（1）What does the underlined word “others” refer to in Paragraph 2?A . Roommates.B . Good friends.C . Boyfriends or girlfriends.D . Relatives.（2）What is the original purpose of China’s Singles Day?A . To promote the online sale of goods.B . To reduce loneliness of singles in China.C . To create a holiday for all Chinese youth.D . To find boyfriends or girlfriends for singles.（3）China’s Singles Day became consumers’ day in .A . the early 1990sB . 2016C . 2017D . 2009（4）Which of the following words can describe Daniel Zhang’s attitude to online sales?A . Optimistic.B . Indifferent.C . Worried.D . Confused.5. 阅读理解Almost all researches in sleep explain that nightmares are a reaction to negative experiences that happen during waking hours. However, some of them believe that nightmares do have some real benefits. One 2017 study, for example, found that frequent nightmare sufferers rated themselves as more empathetic . They also displayed more of a tendency to unconsciously mirror other people through things like yawning. People who have constant nightmares also tend to think further outside the box on psychoanalysis tasks. Some other researches have found support for the idea that nightmares might be linked to creativity.People seeking cure for nightmares were not necessarily more fearful oranxious, but rather had a general sensitivity to all emotional experience. Sensitivity is the driving force behind intense dreams. Heightened sensitivity to threats or fear during the day results in had dreams and nightmares, whereas heightened passion or excitement may result in more intense positive dream. And both these forms of dreams may feed back into waking life, perhaps increasing suffering after nightmares, or promoting social bonds and empathy after positive dreams.The effects go further still. This sensitivity overflows over into perceptions and thoughts: people who have a lot of nightmares experience a dreamlike quality to their waking thoughts. And this kind of thinking seems to give them a creative edge. For instance, studies show that such people tend to have greater creative talent and artistic express.
