AMore than 3 million people worldwide are giving up their time to help search for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370.However, they are not on the 57 ships and 48 aircraft but at home on their computers. The volunteers are part of the crowdsourcing appeal on the Tomnod website -- the online search party scanning more than 24,000 square kilometres of satellite imagery in hopes of finding a clue that will lead to the discovery of MH370, reports The Guardian.Tomnod is run by commercial satellite company DigitalGlobe, which soon after the plane’s disappearance repositioned two of its five satellites over the plane's last known location in the Gulf of Thailand, and uploads high-resolution satellite images to its site.Tomnod users are provided with a randomly chosen map from the search area and are told to drop a pin if they see signs of aeroplane wreckage, life rafts, oil slicks or anything that looks “suspicious”.Experts then find where there is overlap in tags from people who tagged the same location, and the most notable areas are shared with authorities. A Tomnod spokesperson said that up to Thursday every pixel（像素）had been looked at by human eyes at least 30 times, The Guardian report said.The Tomnod hunt has so far proved inconclusive. However, for those taking part in the search for MH370, sacrificing their time is worth it if their efforts unearth some clues.1. What does this text mainly tell us?A. DigitalGlobe is appealing for search for MH370.B. The biggest plane crash has occurred in world history.C. Over 3 million join in search for missing MH370.D. MH370 has become biggest mystery of the century.2. According to the passage which is true of the volunteers?A. They can access the Tomnod website for possible signs of the lost plane.B. They are helping hire more people for the Tomnod website.C. They are serving on the 57 ships and 48 aircraft.D. They have pictured over 24,000 square kilometres of satellite imagery.3. Which of the following shows the corect order of the crowdsourcing hunt for the missing plane ?a. DigitalGlobe uploads satellite images to Tomnod site.b. Tomnod users scan the imagery to find something suspicious with the plane.c. Experts identify the most notable areas and share them with authorities.d. Tomnod users download satellite images.A. a-b-d-cB. a-d-b-cC. d-b-a-dD. d-a-b-c4. The volunteers’ attitude towards the crowdsourcing program is __.A．critical B．neutral C．casual D． supportive【文章大意】本文是新闻报道。

Here is a list of colors, which can change your life.Blue/PurpleBlue is considered to be peaceful and calming and it has the same effect on our health. The blue / purple color in food is due primarily to their anthocyanins which are antioxidants (抗氧化剂) that are particularly heart healthy and may help support healthy blood pressure. Out of all the blue and purple foods available, blueberries are considered to have the highest antioxidant level. An analysis of the latest data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Study found that people who eat purple and blue fruits and vegetables are at a reduced risk for high blood pressure and are less likely to be overweight.A food and health expert says that blue and purple color foods can prevent blood mass formation, and they also lower the risk of cancer.Foods that contain blue and purple colors are: reddish eggplant (especially the skin), blueberries, blackberries, purple grapes, etc. GreenWe all know that we should eat green as green symbolizes nature. The green foods are rich in isothiocyanates, which help resist cancer.Dr. Ashok Agarwal, a food and nutrition specialist, explains, "They are excellent sources of folic acid, vitamin K, as well as carotene （胡萝卜素）. Diets high in those above are associated with lowered blood pressure."Foods that contain the green color are: broccoli, cabbage, cucumbers, etc.RedLycopene (番茄红素) in reddish fruits and vegetables is a powerful antioxidant that has been associated with a reduced risk of some cancers, and also provides protection against heart attacks.Dr. Smiths says, "Cooked tomato sauces are associated with greater health benefits as pared with the uncooked version as the heating process allows lycopene to be more easily absorbed by the body. Obtaining the most benefit from food depends on proper selection, storage and cooking of theproduce."Foods that contain red color are: Tomatoes and tomato products, watermelon, guava, red onions, red chili, red apples, red grapes, cherries, etc.OrangeThe orange foods are also rich in carotene, which are particularly good antioxidants. These foods are monly considered eyesight foods because they contain vitamin A."Orange fruits and vegetables also play a part in preventing cancer, particularly of the lungs and stomach. Foods that contain the color orange are: Carrots, mangoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, etc.16.

But he did something different -he actually listened to people． Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversations．I thought it was odd, but I guess I had grown accustomed to people asking how I was doing simply out of a robotic conversational habit． After a while, you don't give any thought to the question and just mumble（咕哝,含糊地说） something back． I could say, "I just found out I have six months to live," and someone would reply, "Have a great day!"This old cashier seemed genuine about wanting to know how people were feeling． Meanwhile, the high-tech cash register rang up their purchases and he announced what they owed. Customers handed money to him, he hit the appropriate keys gently, the cash drawer opened, and he counted out their change．Then magic happened． He placed the change in his left hand, walkedaround the counter to the customer, and extended his right hand in an act of friendship．As their hands met, the cashier looked the customers in the eyes．"I surely want to thank you for shopping here today,“ he told them, "You have a great day． Bye-bye．" The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless．All had been touched by his simple gesture． Now it was my turn, I glanced down at the name tag on his red vest, the kind experienced Wal-Mart cashiers wore．It read, "Marty．"' Marty told me how much I owed and I handed him some money．The next thing I knew he was ,standing beside me, offering his right hand and holding my change in his left hand．His kind eyes locked onto mine, smiling, and with a firm handshake．21．While the author stood in checkout line, maybe she felt a little A． calm B．nervous C． impatient D． relaxed 22．In the opinion of the author, people would ________.A．remain silent while shopping B．have a conversation on bad newsC．think carefully before a response D．have a mechanical chat with each other23．What made Marty different from other cashiers?A．He treated his customers friendly and sincerely．B．He calculated without using the cash register．C．He was interested in other's life．D．He used the change to do some magic．24． From the passage, we can infer that MartyA．didn't know how people were feeling B．devoted himself to his jobC．wasn't skilled in doing his job D．was familiar to all his customers25．What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A．Shopping for fun B．The Conversation at a ShopC．The Handshake D．An Old CustomerCThe crisis at Japan’s Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear energy center has raised questions about the future of the nuclear energy industry. Arjun Makhijani is president of the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research in the United States. He says the disaster in Japan is historic.This week, the chairman of America’s nuclear agency said there is little chance that harmful radiation from Japan could reach the United States. Nuclear Regulatory mission Chairman Gregory Jaczko also said America has a strong program in place to deal with earthquake threats. No new nuclear power centers have been built in the United States since 1979. That was when America’s worst nuclear accident happened at the Three Mile Island center in Pennsylvania. The accident began to turn public opinion against nuclear energy.To support more clean energy production, the Obama government has been seeking billions of dollars in government loan guarantees to build new centers. Presently, about twenty percent of electricity in the United States es from nuclear energy. But critics say nuclear power is too costly and dangerous to be worth further expansion.German prime minister Angela Merkel said Germany would close all seven nuclear power centers for a moment while energy policy is reconsidered. The European Union is planning to test all centers in its twenty-seven member nations.Developing nations are less willing to slow nuclear expansion. China said it will continue with plans to build about twenty-five new nuclear plants. And India, under a cooperation agreement with the United States, plans to spend billions on new centers in the ing years.Japan has made nuclear energy a national priority since the 1970s. Unlike many major economies, Japan imports eighty percent of its energy. The Nuclear Energy Institute says twenty-nine percent of Japan’selectricity came from nuclear sources in 2011. The government planned to increase that to forty percent by xx.Nuclear plants supply fourteen percent of global electricity. Nuclear energy is a clean resource, producing no carbon gases. But radioactive waste is a serious unresolved(未解决的) issue. So is the presence of nuclear power centers in earthquake areas like the one near Bushehr, Iran.26. Which of the following countries is the least likely to expand its use of nuclear energy?A. China.B. India.C. Iran.D. Germany.27. The government of Japan intended to increase its nuclear energy inxx by ______ pared with 2011.A. 29%.B. 40%.C. 69%.D. 11%.28. Which of the following statements about the use of nuclear power in the U.S. is TRUE?A. Most of the electricity es from nuclear energy in the U.S.B. The Obama government is against building nuclear power plants.C. A small number of nuclear power plants have been built since 1979.D. A serious nuclear accident happened in America at the end of the 1970s.29. What’s the main idea of this passage?A. The nuclear crisis in Japan has spread to other parts of the world.B. The situation of the world nuclear power development after the crisis in Japan.C. Japan’s nuclear disast er will slow the expansion of nuclear plants all over the world.D. Japan’s nuclear disaster won’t affect the nuclear energy production in other countries.30. From the last sentence of the passage, we can see the writer’sattitude towards building a nuclear power plant near Bushehr, Iran is .A. supportiveB. optimisticC. negativeD. uncertainSection C (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions : Fireworks are crackling through the night skies across the globe as revelers celebrate the first moments of xx.Crowds gathered in public spaces in major cities across the Asia-Pacific region to ring in thenew year with music, fireworks and revelry. As clocks marched toward midnight around the world, crowds massed in Moscow, Dubai, London, New York and other major cities ahead of their celebrations.Dubai created what it called the world's largest fireworks show. About a million people are expected to gather in New York's Times Square to watch a giant ball drop at the stroke of midnight, the best known of the American New Year's Eve rituals.Fireworks erupted from Auckland's Sky Tower as people danced in the streets of New Zealand's biggest city. In Sydney, Australia, more than a million people watched fireworks launched for the first time in more than a decade from the sails of the city's famed waterfront opera house. Billowing fireworks soared over Hong Kong's skyscrapers.In Japan, some celebrators ate noodles and seafood - thought to bring good luck in xx --- and offered prayers at Buddhist shrines and temples.However, celebrations were somewhat muted in the Philippines, where officials say about 260 people were injured by fireworks or stray bullets(流弹) in the days leading up to New Year's Eve. The mood also was somber in areas still recovering from Haiyan, a November typhoon that killed thousands of people.Cape Town, South Africa, was set for a particularly poignant celebration to include a tribute to anti-apartheid leader Nelson Mandela, who died December 5.31．How did crowds in public spaces in major cities across the Asia-Pacific region celebratethe New Year?

Here’s a chicken wrap,’’her pal said. “But be careful, it’s kind of wet.” They weren’t in the food store. They were in front of the store, digging through three overflowing trash bins. Hashimoto Dumpster-dives(拾荒) for all her food, doesn’t use toilet paper or do laundry, and hasn’t bought makeups in 10 years. She doesn’t have to live this way — she’s an employed CPA(注册会计师). “I’ve always been money-saving, but it was when I was fired that I became extreme,” Hashimoto explained.“No job is guaranteed, so I live as if I could be fired at any time.”Manhattan, she said, is a gold mine for dumpster divers.“Consumers in wealthy areas expect their products to be perfect, so upscale stores throw out a lot of items that are still good.“New York can be the most expensive place to live, but it can also be the least expensive if you know how to work the system.”Hashimoto let the reporter of a newspaper spend a day with her learning how to work the system. She lives in Harlem, where she bought a studio in xx and paid it off in nine months, but walks down to the Upper West Side three times a week for good, free food. Her other money-saving methods include using soap to wash herself after using the toilet, taking surveys online to earn gift cards, participating in medical trials, testing products for free samples, cutting her own hair, washing her clothes while she showers, and running to work to avoid using subway. “I was very angry about the latest round of subway fare rises,” she said.Hashimoto does have her limits. Her furniture is a collection of found free gifts — but she won’t take an old mattress for fear of bedbugs, and sleeps instead on used yoga mats. And she won’t stay in a relationship with a boyfriend for free meals.“I’ve been in a relationship where I stayed because I was getting free gifts, but I got out of it,” she says. “It’s better to be single and dumpster-diving than to be with someone you can’t stand.”21．The author mentions Kate’s friend at the beginning to ______.A. show there are too many dumpster diversB. introduce the topic of the textC. show they have the same lifestyleD. show the close relationship between them22．The underlined word “upscale”(in Para.3) is closest in meaning to_______.A. largeB. high-classC. farawayD. fortable23．How does the author develop the fourth paragraph?A. Offering the sufferings of Kate.B. Making parisons.B. Discussing the high living cost in New York.D. Providing details of Kate’s daily life.When I was sixteen years old, I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn’t the first time I had been abroad. Like most English children I learned French at school. And I had often been to France, so I was used to speaking a foreign language to people who didn’t understand English. But when I went to America I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language barriers.（障碍）How wrong I was! The misunderstandings(误解) began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to give my American friend Penny a call and tell her that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.“Yes,” I said, “I want to give my friend a ring.”“Well, that’s nice,” he said. “Are you getting married? But aren’t you a bit （点） young?”“Who is talking about marriage?” I replied. “I only want to give my friend a ring to tell her I’ve arrived. Can you tell me where there’s a phone box?”“Oh!” he said, “There’s a phone downstairs.”When at last we met, Penny explained the misunderstandings to me.“Don’t worry,” she said to me. “I had so many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from British. You’ll soon get used to all the funny things they say.

The songs that are sung or played by instruments （乐器） are beautiful to all people everywhere.Popular music in America is what every student likes. Students carry small radios （收音机） with earphones and listen to music before class, after class and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers (扬声器) and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports, the weather, politics(政治), and activities of the American people. But most of the radio broadcast(广播) is music.Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in every state. Once the popular singer is heard throughout the country, young people buy his or her tapes. Some of the money from these tapes es to the singer. Wherever the singer goes, all the young people want to meet him or her. Now the singer has bee a national star.Besides pop music, there are two other kinds of music that is important to Americans. One is called folk music. It tells stories about the mon（平凡的）life of Americans. The other is called western or country music. This was started by cowboys who would sing at night to the cows they were watching.

International LanguageRecently a professor of philosophy(哲学)in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day to day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he has asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value(重视)in life．The professor says our relation with others often bees clearly defined(明确)when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money．If he does，it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. Otherwise it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t． Since money is so important to us, we consider those who are rich to be very important. The professor interviews some rich people in his research for his book．Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich? Answer : The most surprising thing is why people give me so much respect(尊重).I am nothing．I don’t know much．All I am is rich．People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much money do I need for any given purpose in my life? In his book，the professor uncovered an important need in modern society：to bring back the idea that money is a tool rather than the end．Money plays an important role in the material world，but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.32．The students are asked to keep a record of every penny they spend to______.A. learn how to spend moneyB. learn how to make more moneyC. know what to write in a recordD. know what is important in life33．In the second paragraph, the professor mainly tells us ________.A. never to borrow money from a friendB. friendship disappears when it es to moneyC. money can influence friendshipD. money can weaken friendship34．Through his book，the professor seems to tell us ．A. money is very important in the material worldB. the purpose of our life is to make moneyC. money does not surely mean happinessD. we should value money in our life35．Which of the following might the author disagree?A. Money is important in modern society.B. The meaning of life does not pletely lie in money.C. Wealth will surely bring the owner happiness.D. Happiness is not necessarily the result of wealth.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Though much eco talk has centered on biofuels from corn and soybeans, the biofuel that looks more likely to replace petroleum comes from a most unlikely source: algae (藻类). Algae, like corn, soybeans, and other crops, grow via photosynthesis (光合作用) and can be processed into fuel oil. However, they yield 30 times more energy than land crops such as soybeans, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Many algae species also can grow in saltwater and polluted water — while corn and soy require arable land and fresh water that will be in short supply as the world s population balloons.“If you replaced all the diesel (柴油) in the U.S. with soy biodiesel, it would take half the land mass of the U.S. to grow those soybeans,〞 says Matt Caspari, chief executive of Aurora Biofuels, a Berkeley, Calif based private firm that specializes in algae oil technology. On the other hand, the Energy Department says that if algae fuel replaced all the petroleum fuel in the United States, it would require 15,000 square miles, which is a few thousand miles larger than Maryland (12,407 square miles), the 42nd state in land area.Another bonus: Because algae can be grown just about anywhere in a closed space, they re being tested at several power plants across the nation as a carbon absorber. Smokestack emissions (烟囱排放物) can be pumped directly into the ponds, feeding the algae while keeping greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere.Although processing technology for algae fuel—also known as “oilgae〞 in some environmentalist circles—is improving, it s still years away from reaching your local gas pump. “It s just a question of cost, because no large scale facilities have been built yet.〞 Caspari says.21. The underlined word “yield〞 in the second paragraph can be replaced by .A. controlB. requireC. produceD. grow22. Compared with corn and soybeans, algae .A. may pollute water and soilB. can grow in poor conditionsC. provide much less energyD. need more special care23. According to the third paragraph, one of the advantages of algae fuel is that .A. it can be used more widelyB. it is more easy to produceC. it needs much less landD. it costs much less money24. What do we learn about algae from the fourth paragraph?A. Algae help protect the environment.B. People can grow algae anywhere.C. Fish can get more oxygen from algae.D. A lgae produce less waste.25. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Environmental protection.B. Biofuels from corn and soybeans.C. The false hope of biofuels.D. A promising oil alternative.BPrince Charles yesterday promised to reduce the royal impact on the environment through sweeping changes to his personal lifestyle and official schedule. The prince will replace carbon-heavy private jets and helicopters with scheduled flights and train services.The move came as Pr ince Charles urged business leaders to publish the environmental impact of their activities. He said, “Few accountants and business decision-makers ask, ‘How much of our critical natural resource is left? How many miles of polar ice cap has our business helped melt this year? By how many inches have we raised sea levels? How many species have we put at risk? How many homes will be flooded, how many people will die of thirst or starvation because of our activities?’ These are not comfortable questions, but, by God, they need to be asked.〞He added, “At the moment these costs do not appear in anyone’s books. Yet they are real, they are incurred (遭受) now and in a relatively short time, the damage being caused may be beyond remedy(补救). 〞He said the world was “running up the biggest global credit card debt in history, but with little or no thought for how the bill will ever be paid〞.Flanked by (两侧有) the prime minister and business and community leaders at St James Palace, the prince said his new “accounting for sustainability (可持续性)〞 project would give consumers the power to choose products that caused less damage to the planet.Duchy Originals, the Prince’s food company, is taking steps to quantify how much carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas is emitted in growing, processing and distributing its products.The changes to the Prince’s travel arrangements announced yesterday are part of a wider review of the carbon footprint associated with activities at all three of his residences Clarence House in London, Highgrove and Birkhall on the Balmoral estate, as well as the activities of his 21 personal and 105 full-time staff.Measures incl ude a review of electricity use, commuter(通勤者) and other staff travel and are intended to identify further reductions in carbon dioxide emissions. The review will report in June, when Clarence House will announce annual targets to reduce carbon emissions.26. One of the moves Prince Charles will take to reduce the royal impact on the environment is .A. taking private jets that are not carbon-heavyB. taking helicopters instead of private jetsC. taking trains instead of scheduled flightsD. taking scheduled flights instead of helicopters27. How does Prince Charles feel about business leaders in terms of environmental protection?A. Dissatisfied.B. Disappointed.C. Doubtful.D. Impatient.28. Duchy Originals will in response to Prince Charles-calls.A. make as much green food as possibleB. cut down on its electricity useC. figure out its greenhouse gas emissionD. reduce its greenhouse gas emission29. The underlined phrase “the biggest global credit card debt〞 in the third paragraph probably refers to .A. the great amount of waste produced by industryB. the great damage caused for the environmentC. the great amount of debts of the royal familyD. the high cost of industry in the producing process30. What would be the BEST title of the passage?A. Prince Charles promises greener royal lifestyleB. Better late than neverC. Prince Charles and his concern for the environmentD. The royal family has a role to play in environment protectionCWith the advent of fast food chains from the West such as McDonald’s, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Pizza Hut, the Chinese are being introduced to a diet that markedly increases the death rate from certain diseases in any population．Scientific studies from all ov er the world show that a diet high in animal foods such as pork, beef, including sugar, white flour, white noodles and even white rice, undermines one’s health．Deposits of animal fat cling to the walls of arteries(动脉), blocking the blood supply to various organs．This causes diseases in almost every organ, but in particular it damages two of the most vital ones, the heart and brain．Compare these problems with the excellent health one may enjoy if one consumes good Chinese food．The cook goes out every day, procures great-tasting, fresh vegetables, then cooks them for just a few minutes so that their nutritional value is preserved and afterwards serves them in a most artistic and elegant fashion．Please cling to your traditional ways of eating．They are far superior to those of the West．Certainly the fast food chains make lots of money, but who wants to fill the pockets of a foreign food chain that proceeds to ruin the health of the Chinese people?Another reason Western fast food restaurants make money is that the food they serve, which comes from assembly lines, will not attract bugs or spoil easily．How the Chinese could patronize these fast food places when Chinese cook such delectable food, not just in this country but over the entire world, is beyond my comprehension．Western restaurants are clean and tastefully decorated．Moreover, these restaurants also do indeed have“good service and an inviting dining atmosphere〞．However, Chinese food chains could do likewise if they would organize themselves as the Western chains do．These lessons in management and decoration are the only ones worth learning from the invasion of this country by the Western fast food chains．In other words only imitate the style of the restaurants, not the content of the food or the menus in any way, shape or form．Do not let the desire for money destroy the wonderful tradition that China has established in producing absolutely fantastically tasty as well as healthful food．31. The following are fast food chains from the West except .A. McDonald’sB. Kentucky Fried ChickenC. Pizza HutD. Chinese food32. A diet high in anima l foods and refined foods will cause diseases, particularly damage .A. the heart and brainB. the walls of arteriesC. all organsD. the blood33. The underlined word“undermines〞in the 2nd paragraph may have the similar meaning with“〞 .A. improvesB. damagesC. affectsD. strengthen34. What will be worth learning from the Western fast food chains?A. The content of the food.B. The menus.C. The lessons in management and decoration.D. Shape or form of the food.35. In the passage, the author thinks .A. Chinese should learn everything from Western fast food restaurants.B. Chinese should say no to Western fast food.C. Western fast food restaurants offer healthy diets.D. Chinese food don’t contain enough nutrition.第三局部阅读表达〔共5小题；每题2分，总分值10分〕阅读下面的短文，并根据文章后的题目要求答复36-40小题。

They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They will give you two shouts or two whistles. When a signal is given twice, it is an answer to a call for help.If you don’t think that you will get help before night es, try to make a little house with branches(树枝). Make yourself a bed with leaves and grass.When you need some water, you have to leave your little branch house to look for it. Don’t just walk away.

A short time ago, a test was given in the United States. People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had different kinds of breakfasts.The rules show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit , eggs, bread and milk before going to school ,he or she will learn more quickly and listen more carefully in class.The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help them lose weight. This is because they are so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight instead of losing it. You will lose weight if you reduce your other meals.24.

Kids are turning to the internet for everything from hanging out with friends to shopping, which makes it harder for parents to keep track oftheir online activities. Fortunately, there are many choices for controlling what your kids see on their puters, laptops, and mobile devices.Content blockers and filters are great tools to use for younger kids. They allow you more control over where they go and what they do online. A content blocker can block some unhealthy websites or limit a child’s search to the kind of sites. A content filter can scan sites and pictures and block those sites that contain certain words, key phrases, or content.Consider tracking software for older teenagers. This software enables you to see which sites your children have visited, tracking their path online. This tool gives young people more freedom to explore the Internet, but it also allows you to check that they are using the internet responsibly. Let your teenagers know that you trust them, but that you will be regularly checking that they are visiting appropriate sites online.Even if you use content blockers, filters, and trackers, you know that a lot of kids figure out ways to get around these, so it’s important to remain alert(警惕的). Remember that not all adult sites can be identified by blocker, filter, or tracker software. That’s w hy it’s important to talk to your kids about what to do when something inappropriate or scary es up. Nothing can replace involvement and supervision(监督) by adults. Keep monitoring how your kids use the internet on a regular basis without getting into the role of internet traffic police.32. How should parents monitor and control younger kids’ internet use?A.

高三英语下学期第7周周练试题高三全册英语试题
位敦市安定阳光实验学校度下学期周练（第七周）高级英语试卷CWe are often unable to pay close attention to what we hear. But sometimes we try to remember everything a speaker say. We turn into sponges, taking in a speaker’s every word as if every word was equally important. We try to remember all the names, all the dates, and all the places. In the process we often miss the speaker’s main point.Erik Waldman works at a design company. Knowing he had never been good at budgeting his money, he was determined to begin thinking about his economic future. When his employer circulated an e-mail announcing a financial planning seminar, Erik signed up right away.The first period was about retirement planning. Simone Fisher, the lecturer, explained that 7 of 10 Americans between the ages of 22 and 35 do not have a regular savings plan. Erik wrote down every number Simone mentioned.“If you want to have a retirement income equal to 75 percent of your current salary,”Simone continued, “you will need to invest at least of 6 percent of your present earnings, and beyond that you need to consider future inflation rates(通货膨胀率). I will helpyou calculate your individual savings needs soon. In the meantime, I want to stress that the most important thing is to start saving now.”Erik recorded all the statistics Simone used. When she opened the floor for question, Erik raised his hand and said, “I have two question. When is the best time to start saving for retirement ? And how am I supposed to figure out my savings target if I don’tknow what inflation ra tes will be in the future?”This is a typical example of losing the speaker’s point by concentration on details. Erik had fixed his mind on remembering all the statistics in Simone’s presentation, but he blocked out the man message. Rather than trying to remember everything, efficient listeners usually concentrate on main ideas and evidence.28. What does the underlined part “We turn into sponges”in Paragraph 1 mean?A. We sometimes become other persons.B. We often fail to focus our attentionC. We refuse to agree with the speaker.D. We find it difficult to remember key things29. During the first period of the seminar, Erik______.A. focused on the lecture’s detailsB. got Simone Fisher’s main ideaC. showed little interest in the lectureD. knew how to calculate inflation rates30. When hearing Erik’s questions, Simone might think______.A. they were very good questionB. Erik was an excellent partnerC. they had just been discussedD. they were hard to answer31. What do we know about Erik?A. His boss asked him to attend the lectureB. He does badly in managing his moneyC. He has a good memoryD. He is still a studentDScientists said they have found evidence of a giant planet far out in our solar system. In a statement, the California Institute of Technology(Caltech) said this planet travels a strange “highly elongated orbit in the distant solar system”.The discovery was made by two researchers at Caltech; Konstantin Batygin and Mike Brown. They used mathematical modeling and computer simulations (模拟)to find the planet. So far, there have not been any direct observations of the planet. “My jaw hit the floor,”said astronomer Mike Brown, the moment he realized there might be a ninth planet.The scientists said it would take this planet 10,000to 20,000 years just to make one full orbit around the sun. The new planet,called “Planet Nine”has a mass about 10 times the size of Earth.It is believed that the planet orbits, or travels, around the sun from a great distance. The planet Neptune’s average distance to the sun is about 4.5 billion kilometers. But “Planet Nine”could be 20 times farther away from the sun than that. While they did not get a picture of “Planet Nine”yet, the scientists say they are using the biggest and best telescopes on Earth to try to find it.Brown and Batygin reported their finding in The Astronomical Journal. They say that this new planet is so large that there should be no doubt that it is a true planet, once they confirm it.Robert Massey is with the Royal Astronomical Society in London. He told AFP that planets have been predicted before, and then were not found.

A great life is the result of allocating your time, energy, thoughts, and hard work towards what you want your life to be. 36A great life is the result of simplifying your life. People often misunderstand what simplify means. It's not a way to remove work from your life. 37 . When you focus on simplifying your life, you free up energy and time for the work that you enjoy and the purpose for which you are here. In order to create a great life, you will have to make room for it in yours first.A great life is the result of your best effort. 38 It may mean re-evaluating how you spend your time, or choosing to spend your money in a different way. It may mean looking for new ways to spend your energy that coincide with your particular definition of a great life.___39 It's easy to spend your days just responding to the next thing that gets your attention, instead of intentionally using the time, energy and money you have in a way that's important to you. Focus on removing the obstacles that get in the way of you making sure you are doing things of greater significance.A great life is the result of starting. There’s the old saying everyone’s familiar with “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a s ingle step.” In order to even move from the couch to the refrigerator, you have to start. There’s no better time to start than today. 40 Today, right now, is the right day to start to take a step in the direction of your heart’s desires.A. Look around a t someone’s life you admire.B. It’s not a way to remove work from your lifeC. A great life is the result of doing important thingsD. Don’t wait for a raise, or until the kids get older.E. A great life is the result of controlling your thoughts.F. Use these “secrets” to start creating your own great life today!G. Creating a great life requires that you make some adjustments.第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）Once upon a time in a far-away place lived an old doll-maker.

(2021·苏锡常镇四市二调，C)Global Positioning Systems are now a part of everyday driving in many countries. These satellitebased systems provide turnbyturn directions to help people get to where they want to go. But they can also cause a lot of problems, sending you to the wrong place or leave you completely lost. Many times, the driver is to blame. Sometimes a GPS error is responsible. Most often, says Barry Brown, it is a combination of the two.Barry Brown is with the Mobile Life Centre in Stockholm, Sweden. The center studies human-computer interaction, or HCI, especially communications involving wireless devices. We spoke to Mr Brown by Skype. He told us about an incident involving a friend who had flown to an airport in the eastern United States. There he borrowed a GPSequipped car to use during his stay.Barry Brown：“And they just plugged in an address and then set off to their destination.” And, then it wasn't until they were driving for thirty minutes that they realized they had put in adestination back on the West Coast where they lived. They actually put their home address in. So again, the_GPS_is_kind_of_“garbage_in_garbage_out”．Mr Brown says this is a common human error. But, he says, what makes the problem worsehas to do with some of the shortcomings, or failures, of GPS equipment.Barry Brown：“One problem with many GPS units is they have a very small screen and t hey just tell you the next turn. Because they just give you the next turn, sometimes that means that it is not really giving you the overview that you would need to know that it's going to the wrong place.”Barry Brown formerly served as a professor with the University of California, San Diego. While there, he worked on a project with Eric Laurier from the University of Edinburgh. The two men studied the effects of GPS devices on driving by placing cameras in people's cars. They wrote a paper b ased on their research. It is called “The Normal, Natural Troubles of Driving with GPS.”Barry Brown: “One of the things that struck us, perhaps the most important thing was that you have to know what you're doing when you use a GPS. There are these new skills that people have developed. There are these new competencies that you need to have to be able to use a GPS because they sometimes go wrong.”Barry Brown says this goes against a common belief that GPS systems are for passive drivers who lack navigational (导航) skills.“The Normal, Natural Troubles of Driving with GPS” lists several areas where GPS systems can cause confusion for drivers. These include maps that are outdated, incorrect or difficult to understand. They also include timing issues related to when GPS commands are given.Barry Brown says to make GPS systems better we need a better understanding of how drivers, passengers and GPS systems work together.文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。

removing moisture from food helps to store it，and that the easiest way to do this is to expose the food to sun and wind.All foods，including water-cabbage and other leaf vegetables，contain as much as 93% water，potatoes and other root vegetables 80%，lean(瘦的)meat 75% and fish，anything from 80% to 60%，depending on how fatty it is.If this water is removed，the activity of the bacteria which causes food to go bad is controlled.Nowadays most foods are dried mechanically.The conventional method of such dehydration (脱水) is to put food in chambers (室) through which hot air is blown at temperature of about 110℃ at entry to about 43℃ at exit.This is the usual method for drying such things as vegetables，minced meat and fish.Liquids such as milk，coffee，tea，soups and eggs may be dried by pouring them over a heated steel cylinder(圆筒)，then put into a chamber through which a current of hot air passes.In the first process，the dried material comes off the roller as a thin film which is then broken up into small flakes.In the second process it falls to the bottom of the chamber as small powder.Where recognizable pieces of meat and vegetables are required，as in soup，the ingredients are dried separately and then mixed.Dried foods take up less room and weigh less than the same food packed in cans or frozen，and they do not need to be stored in special conditions.For these reasons they are invaluable to the climbers，explorers and soldiers in battle，who have little storage space.They are also popular with housewives because it takes so little time to cook them.1．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A．a fat fish contains as much water as a lean oneB．the fattier a fish is，the more water it may containC．a fatty fish holds less water than a lean oneD．the water content of fish has nothing to do with the content of their fat2．The underlined word “conventional”in Paragraph 3 can most probably be replaced by ________.A．particular B．scientificC．usual D．special3．Which of the following statements is NOT true about drying food?A．The removal of water in food helps prevent it from going rotten.B．The open-air method of drying food has been known for hundreds of years.C．In the course of dehydration，the temperature of hot current coming from entry to exit is gradually going up.D．The process of drying liquids is much more complex than that of drying solid food.4．The last paragraph mainly talks about ________.A．the reason why housewives like dried foodB．the general convenience of dried foodC．the methods of storing foodD．the advantages of dried，canned and frozen food1．Finally，the doctor in charge told us our daughter was brain dead.(完形填空第一段) 最后，主治医生告诉我们女儿已是脑死亡。

AWe live in a sweet world. The average American kid consumes more than 20 teaspoons of sugar per day, and adults eat 50% more sugar today than they did in the 1970s. We all know that too much sugar isn’t good for you. But did we know it could be toxic? A team of researchers at the University of Utah used mice to conduct a study on the negative effects of sugar. They found it could have serious effects on people’s health.Sugar is found not only in sweets and candies, but also in many household items like pasta and crackers.During the 58-week-long study, mice were fed a diet containing 25% more sugar. This percentage is equivalent to a healthy human diet along with three cans of soda daily. The team found that these mice were twice as likely to die as mice fed a similar diet without the sugar. Though the mice did not show signs of obesity or high blood pressure, male mice were 26% less territorial and produced 25% fewer offspring than the other mice.Scientists often use mice for research because they have a similar genetic structure to humans. “Since most substances that are toxic in mice are also toxic in people, it’s likely that those underlying physical problems that cause those mice to have increased mortality are at play in people,” says study author James Ruff of the University of Utah. Findings from this study reveal negative effects that are not as detectable as weight gain or heart problems. Sugar can contribute to long-term changes in the body that can alter development and even shorten lives.Cutting sugar out of the American diet altogether may be difficult. But making the effort to control our nation’s s ugar cravings will provide for a truly sweeter future.1.The study in the passage aimed at learning about______A. the Americans’ dietB. the negative effects of sugar on miceC. the advantages and disadvantages of sugarD. the negative effects of sugar on people’s health2.According to the study, which of the following is NOT true?A. Sugar can shorten lives.B. Sugar’s negative effects can’t be seen easily.C. Eating much more sugar can give mice high blood pressure.D. Mice are likelier to die when having a diet containing 25% more sugar.3.From the last paragraph we can know______.A. it’s wise for Americans to cut down the amount of sugar in their dietB. it’s easy for Americans to have a truly sweeter futureC. the Americans will make no effort to get a bright futureD. the Americans have controlled their desire for sugar4.What’s the best title of the passage?A. The Genetic Structure of HumansB. Kids Take Much More SugarC. Living a Sweet LifeD. The Danger of Sugar1. D.细节理解题。

B．Raise. C．Love. D．Lead.3．Which of the following opinions doesn’t the author agree with?A．It’s natural that the elders should take care of themselves.B．It’s our duty to take care of the elders when they are old.C．We should take care of the elders even if a long distance separates us from them.D．Looking after the elders is as important as raising our children.4．In which of the following columns would you most probably read this passage?A．Education. B．Parenting.C．Family. D．Society.5．The passage was written to ________.A．explain what elders are likeB．criticize those who don’t respect eldersC．call on people to respect and love eldersD．explain why we should love elders1．The scientist was bored and said to the poet...(完形填空第一段第二句) 科学家感到无聊，便对诗人说……(1)I don’t think I will be bored in Ms Shen’s class!我认为我从没对沈老师的课感到厌倦过！(2)He is such a boring man!他就是这么一个讨人烦的人！(3)Will it bore you to hear the story again?再听一遍这个故事你会烦吗？2．...in a word，any relative who is older than you.(阅读理解第一段第二句) ……总之，是任何一个年龄比你大的亲人。

高中英语学习材料（灿若寒星*制作整理）高考真题周周练（1）阅读理解AI suddenly heard an elephant crying as though frightened. Looking down, I immediately recognized that something was wrong, and ran down to the edge of the near bank. There I saw Ma Shwe with her three-month-old calf struggling in the fast-rising water, and it was a life-and-death struggle. Her calf was floating and screaming with fear. Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get, holding her whole body against the rushing water, and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body. Every now and then the rushing water would sweep the calf away.There was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean over the mother's body and was gone. Ma Shwe turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk (象鼻) against the rocky bank. Then with a huge effort, she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to place it on a narrow shelf of rock.Just at this moment, she fell back into the river. If she were carried down, it would be certain death. I knew, as well as she did, that there was one spot (地点) where she could get up the bank, but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf.While I was wondering what I could do next, I heard the sound of a mother's love. Ma Shwe had crossed the river and got up the bank and was making her way back as fast as she could, roaring (吼叫) all the time, but to her calf it was music.21. The moment the author got down to the river bank he saw ______.A. the calf was about to fall into the riverB. Ma Shwe was placing the calf on the rockC. the calf was washed away by the rising waterD. Ma Shwe was holding the calf against the rushing water22. How did Ma Shwe manage to save her calf from the fast-flowing water?A. By putting it on a safe spot.B. By pressing it against her body.C. By taking it away with her.D. By carrying it on her back.23. How did the calf feel about the mother elephant's roaring?A. It was a great comfort.B. It was a sign of danger.C. It was a call for help.D. It was a musical note.24. What can be the best title for the text?A. A Mother's LoveB. A Brave ActC. A Deadly RiverD. A Matter of Life and DeathBComputer programmer David Jones earns £35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank ready to let him have a credit card (信用卡). Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18．The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David's firm releases (推出) two new games for the fast growing computer market each month.But David's biggest headache is what to do with his money．Even though he earns a lot, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage (抵押贷款), or get credit cards. David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs,” he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.“Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school,” he said. “But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway.”David added: “I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement (退休) is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”25. In what way is David different from people of his age?A. He often goes out with friends.B. He lives with his mother.C. He has a handsome income.D. He graduated with six O-levels.26. What is one of the problems that David is facing now?A. He is too young to get a credit card.B. He has no time to learn driving.C. He has very little spare time.D. He will soon lose his job.27. Why was David able to get the job in the company?A. He had done well in all his exams.B. He had written some computer programs.C. He was good at playing computer games.D. He had learnt to use computers at schoo1.28. Why did David decide to leave school and start working?A. He received lots of job offers.B. He was eager to help his mother.C. He lost interest in school studies.D. He wanted to earn his own living.阅读七选五Getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables.36 Make a study time and have it at the same time every day. This will help your kids to learn to schedule their day and will give them a sense of control over how they spend their time.Allow them to study in blocks of time, such as for half an hour with a five-minute break in the middle. 37 Ideal (理想的) study times are after dinner or right after school before dinner.Never allow your children to study in front of the television, as that will encourage passive activity. 38You'll also need to help your kids find the right place to study. After you've set up a good study time for little learners, set up a good place where they can get those creative juices flowing.39 Make sure there is a table or a desk and a comfortable chair.40 This includes helping them out with their homework sometimes and being there for them with the answers to any questions. The input you give your children during study periods will help form a bond and help make studying enjoyable.A. Pick a place where your children can study properly.B. Hold them to the schedule they create for themselves.C. Finally, spend time with your kids when they're studying.D. Keep the atmosphere light and offer lots of encouragement, too.E. Instead, use TV as a treat or a reward when the homework is completed.F. Try to stop this bad habit by offering some sort of reward.G. One of the best ways to form good study habits for your kids is to design a schedule that they keep to.短文改错Dear Mrs Winthorp,So my first week at college is over!
