第Ⅰ卷Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)AIt was a Saturday morning,a day I believed would end in victory.For weeks,I had been preparing for the match at the county fairgrounds,sponsored(赞助) by our local riding club.My horse,Tonka, and I could run faster than any other kid in the county, and I hoped to bring home a blue ribbon.My mother usually drove me to the riding events, but on this day, my father planned to drop us off at the fairgrounds with the horse trailer(马车).Although we never discussed it, my father's struggle with alcoholism had become the silent centre of our family life.My mother was paralyzed with fear and indecision.Her salary as a part-time nurse couldn't possibly support four children.No one talked about alcoholism in those days,and it was my family secret.We climbed on the trailer and my father pulled out of our driveway and headed towards the fairgrounds,picking up speed once we hit the main road.It wasn't until we felt a big bump that I realized the trailer was out of control.The dream of my riding winner disappeared.Tonka lay on the floor, completely still.No words were possible.I knew he was dead.Suddenly a man appeared.“Are you all right?” he asked.“Yes.”I answered,although I knew that nothing was all right.“Sit here on the grass,”he said.He bent down to look into the trailer.Tonka remained still.He touched Tonka and then turned to face me.“He is going to be OK.He has just been knocked unconscious.” He rub bed Tonka's cheeks and gently pulled his ears.Tonka rose to his feet.Our father was talking to a police officer.He was upset and in pain and took little notice of me.I looked back;the man was gone.I never forgot him.He gave me strength and a sense of hope in a dark and frightening moment.1.The writer went to the fairgrounds because he wanted to ________.A.take part in a horse racingB.buy Mum a blue ribbonC.join the local riding clubD.train his horse there2.We can learn from the third paragraph that ________.A.the family kept silent at homeB.the family lived a secret lifeC.Father was addicted to alcoholD.Mother was physically disabled3.What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?A.Once formed,bad habits are difficult to break.B.Unexpected kindness is a light that shines in the darkness.C.However mean your life is,meet it and live it.D.Family is a place of encouragement, a safe harbour in the storms.BSince I became a full-time freelancer(自由职业者), I've found one of the hardest things to do is to get up early. Without the danger of being fired, there just hasn't been a lot of motivation(动机) to get out of bed.I've quickly learned that getting up is the key to success and better yet: waking up early is really just a habit.The most important thing to keep in mind is that you must have strong reasons to get out of bed. Motivation is the only thing keeping us from lying in bed all day.Writing down all the big and important things you'll do the next day can give you an extra push in your goal to wake up early and quickly.Don't read in bed. Spending as little time as possible in bed will actually help your body realize that the bed is for sleeping, and not for lying awake for hours. The goal of reading in bed is just to help you fall asleep within 10 minutes.Stress is one of the main causes of poor sleep. Relax yourself before getting into bed. Try controlling breathing exercises or taking yoga exercises to lower your stress level.These are just a few ways you can use to wake up earlier. Finding the best way is the most important, and it requires a little work. The key thing is that waking up should be a pleasantexperience. If you can make waking up something you are looking forward to, you're already halfway on your journey towards becoming an early riser.4.What do we know about the author?A.He has a full-time job outside. B.He likes lying in bed all day.C.He was once fired by a company. D.He has difficulty getting up early.5.The author gives us some tips to help us________.A.find the key to success B.become an early riserC.fall asleep within 10 minutes D.relax after a day's hard work6.Which of the following is NOT true about doing yoga?A.It is a good way to reduce stress. B.It can help you sleep.C.It can make you worried. D.It will help you wake up earlier.CWhat an athlete eats before, during and after exercise is important for comfort and performance during exercise. While eating soon before exercise doesn't provide the fuel needed for the activity, it can prevent hunger during exercise. The major source of fuel for muscles is stored in the days before exercise. This is one reason that the post-exercise meal is very important to recovery and being ready for the next exercise.Exercising on a full stomach is not a good idea. Food that remains in your stomach during an event may cause stomach upset. To make sure you have enough energy, yet reduce stomach discomfort, you should allow a meal to fully digest before the start of the event.If you have an early morning race or exercise, it's best to get up early enough to eat your pre-exercise meal. If not, you should try to eat or drink something easily digestible about 20~30 minutes before the event. The closer you are to the time of your event the less you should eat. You can have a liquid meal closer to your event than a solid meal because your stomach digests liquids faster.Because glucose(葡萄糖) is the energy source for most exercise, a pre-exercise meal should include foods that are high in carbohydrates and easy to digest. This includes foods such as fruit, bread, energy bars and drinks.Planning is necessary if you are competing in an all-day event, such as track meets or other tournaments. You should plan ahead and prepare meals and snacks that you have tried before. Do not experiment with something new on the event day.7.Fully digesting before an event may________.A.cause stomach upset B.give enough energy and stomach discomfort C.give comfort and good performance during exercise D.lead to hunger during exercise 8.From the passage we can learn________.A.you'd better have your pre-exercise meal after an early morning raceB.fruits and bread are high in glucose and easy to digestC.planning is not necessary for track meetsD.you can try something new for your meals on the event day9.What does the underlined word “digest” mean?A.Absorb. B.Interest. C.Disappear. D.Recover.10.What is the best title for the passage?A.Tips for eating before exercise B.What to eat during exerciseC.Fully digesting before exercise D.Planning for your exercise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。

When Liu Xiang, China's track hero, pulled out of the Beijing Olympics due to injury, he greatly disappointed many Chinese sports fans.But things are different now. In the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, we saw a healthier Chinese attitude towards the sports people, fully in line with the Olympic spirit.China didn't win any gold medals on the first day. But, instead of criticizing (批评)the athletes who failed to win, most of the fans were happy with their efforts. “Looking at the results in the right way when an athlete misses out on gold shows the maturity(成熟) of a person, and is also a challenge for a country to face up to in the process of development,” commented CRI.Swimmer Fu Yuanhui won fans' hearts, even if she only won the third place in the 100mbackstroke final. Her fans on her Sina Weibo have increased 100,000 to over 6 million.

单元综合测评uni t 2 Book 1(时间:100分钟分值:120分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)AWhat is the most valuable title for Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade—being named seven-time NBA All-Star or an Olympic gold medalist?Neither of the above.Being “a good father” is the most important thing to the 30yearold, according to Wade's new book, A Father First: How My Life Became Bigger than Basketball.The book was released last month, and is now among The New York Times best-seller list.It talks about Wade's life in and out of basketball and his relationship with his two sons, Zaire, 10, and Zion, 5.“I'm blessed every day with the joy of hearing fans and announcers call my name.Not to mention various nicknames—from ‘DWade’ to‘Flash’ to just ‘No.3’.But none of that comes close to the thrill of hearing my sons call out my most favourite name of all, ‘Daddy!’ Anytime, anywhere, any day,” he writes in his new book.Wade says he was determined to be a good father because of his experience growing up with divorced parents on the South Side, Chicago's poor neighbourhoods.When he was a kid, his mother was addicted to drugs.His sister could do nothing but take 10-year-old Dwyane to live with his father, away from the drug deals and police raids(搜捕) he had grown accustomed to.Wade admits the new environment allowed him to play basketball with his stepbrothers and their friends.After divorcing Siohvaughn Funches-Wade, his high school sweetheart and the children's mother, in 2010, Wade gained joint(共同的) custody(监护权) of the kids.However, he had a bitter court battle before gaining full custody of them the next year.For Wade, breaking the cycle of “babies__having__babies”—one that he says ran in his family and his African-American community—was at first a priority(优先事项) and then a challenge.He wanted to be the best full-time dad he could be.As an NBA exception without a tattoo(文身), Wade says he wishes to be his kids' role model and that fatherhood helps him mature.“Living in Miami, and playing in the NBA, everything moves quickly, but my kids slow things down.Becoming a dad matured me.I was already a mature kid, but it has made me grow up a little faster so I am ready for the responsibilities of being a father,” he told the USA Today.1.What does the article mainly talk about?A.An introduction of Wade's new book.B.Wade's deep love for his children.C.How Wade's parents influenced his development.D.What Wade has learned from his early experiences.2.What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?A.Wade takes his nicknames to his heart.B.Wade wants to thank his fans.C.Wade is more concerned with his career.D.Wade cares more about his sons.3.What did Wade think of the cycle of “babies having babies”?A.He wished he could get away from it.B.He thought it was reasonable in African-American community.C.He thought it was a challenge to adapt to it.D.He wanted to follow the tradition that ran in his family.BAre you looking for an exercise programme that's easy to learn, wants little or no equipment, and relaxes your mind while building your body? If so, please keep reading to learn more about yoga.Yoga seems like a hot new trend(趋势), but yoga actually began more than 3,000 years ago in India.The word yoga means to unite mind, body, and spirit.Although yoga includes physical exercise, it is also a lifestyle of which exercise is just a part.Training your mind, body, and breath, as well as connecting with your spirituality(精神性) is the main goal of the yoga lifestyle.Yoga has lots of benefits.It can improve strength, balance and patience.In addition, many people who practise yoga say that it reduces anxiety and stress, and even helps them sleep better.Many gyms and community centres offer yoga classes.Your neighbourhood may also have a yogatraining centre.Some yoga teachers offer private classes for students who want more professional training.You could also try using a yoga DVD. Websites, DVDs, and books can't compare to learning yoga from a teacher, but they can help you find out more.They can be especially helpful if you have already taken yoga classes and want to practise at home.Dress comfortably in clothing that allows you to move your body fully.Shorts or pants and a T-shirt or tank top are best.Yoga is practised bare foot, so you don't have to worry about special shoes.Before you begin any type of exercise programme, it's a good idea to talk to your doctor, especially if you have a health problem.4.From the passage we can learn many facts about yoga EXCEPT that ________.A.it's easy to learnB.it needs little or no equipmentC.it can build your body and relax your mindD.physical exercise is the most important part of yoga lifestyle5.If you want to get more professional training, you'd better ________.A.have your own yoga training centreB.take private classes offered by yoga teachersC.learn yoga from yoga DVDs and booksD.go to India for further learning6.Before you do yoga, you should ________.A.wear your best clothesB.wear special shoes for yogaC.ask your doctor for adviceD.read a lot of yoga booksCChocolate is good for your heart, skin and brain.People early think that chocolate is bad for their health.They describe chocolate as “something to die for” or say “death by chocolate”.Now they should __bite__their__tongues! Evidence(证据) is showing that some kinds of chocolate are actually good for you in the following ways:A happier heartScientists at Harvard University recently examined 136 studies on cocoa—the main ingredient(成分) in chocolate and found that it does seem to strengthen the heart.Studies have shown heart benefits(受益) a lot from cocoa in chocolate.Better blood pressure(血压)If yours is high, chocolate may help.Jeffrey Blumberg from Tufts University recently found that people with high blood pressure who ate 3.5 ounces of dark chocolate per day for two weeks saw their blood pressure drop quickly.Muscle magicChocolate milk may help you recover after a hard workout(锻炼).In a small study at Indiana University, people who drank chocolate milk between workouts did better than those who had some sports drinks.Better for your skinGerman researchers gave 24 women a half-cup of special cocoa every day.After three months, the women's skin was smoother(平滑的).The research shows that chocolate helps protect the skin.Brain gainsIt sounds almost too good to be true, but research suggests that chocolate may improve your memory, attention span and problem-solving.7.What's the meaning of “bite their tongues” in the first paragraph?A.Think of it. B.Speak up.C.Stop talking. D.Listen to it.8.Which of the following is WRONG?A.Studies have shown heart benefits a lot from cocoa in chocolate.B.Chocolate may help you lower your blood pressure.C.People early know chocolate is good for their health.D.Chocolate may improve your memory, attention span and problem-solving.9.The idea that chocolate may help lower blood pressure was given by________.A.scientists at Harvard UniversityB.Jeffrey Blumberg from Tufts UniversityC.scientists at Indiana UniversityD.German researchers10.What's the best title for the text?A.Chocolate, a healthy foodB.More chocolate, less healthC.Chocolate and blood pressureD.Advice on eating chocolate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。

ALiving abroad requires a small adjustment and balancing of cultures.Moving from Scotland to Austria,the differences aren't so great,perhaps,as moving to Asia or Africa.But things are still different enough to be unsettling (使人不安的).One of the first differences I noticed was the opening hours of shops here.During the week,supermarkets close at 7:30 p.m.,at the latest.On Sundays,they aren't open at all.On my first weekend here,I wasn't at all prepared for this.I planned to go into town to pick up things I'd forgotten to bring.I wanted to get some groceries,too,after a few days of eating out.A friend had warned me that nothing was open on Sundays,but I didn't realize she was serious.So,I wandered around town,coming across shop after shop with doors closed.I ate out again that Sunday,and I learned my lesson.To begin with,I thought it was highly inconvenient.What if I ran out of milk in the evening,or wanted to buy biscuits before bed?In the UK,I was so used to large supermarkets,which stayed open until at least 10 p.m.,if not for twenty-four hours.But now,I have to buy food every Saturday.“What do people do here on Sunday s?” I asked my flatmate.She just looked at me.“Nothing,” she replied.If it's inconvenient,then there's also something nice about it.Who needs to be able to buy soup or soap or bread twenty four hours a day?No one really needs to of course.But it's nice,too,to have Sundays completely free from material worries.Sundays here are all about relaxing for hours in coffee shops and spending time with friends.Sunday is a day of rest.People in the UK often complain,“I thought Sundays were meant to be a day of rest!”,while rushing to work,doing chores(家庭杂务) or standing in queues inshops.Well,here in Austria,it really is a day of rest.It's different,but it's a difference I can definitely get used to.1.Where does the writer probably come from?A.Britain.B.Austria.C.Asia. D.Africa.2.How did the writer feel when he was told shops didn't open on Sundays?A.Unhappy. B.Unbelievable.C.Delighted. D.Bored.3.What do Austrians usually do on Sundays?A.Do some shopping.B.Eat out with families.C.Work hard at home.D.Do nothing but rest.BShakespeare once called the English countryside “the precious stone set in the silver sea”—and he is not the last to sing high praises of its beauty and historical charm.The countryside is particularly beautiful during the summer,especially in August and September.As one travels the countryside,you'll find more of its treasures:so many plants and animals,romantic castles,secret gardens,and villages so unchanged in the last decades that they seem to have been caught under a fairy's spell.Must-sees include Derbyshire,called “the heart of England” and home to the National Park.The great peaks were the muse (创作灵感) of the Bronte sisters (and if you love the book Jane Eyre,you can visit North Lees hall,where the real Eyre family once lived).History lovers will enjoy a visit to Lincoln city (its most famous son is Lord Alfred Tennyson).It is also known for its cathedral,the charming tea shops,a small castle.One would never guess its violent past—built by the Romans,it was once a center for arrow (箭) making.Harry Potter fans shouldn't miss a visit to Alnwick,which is better recognized as the “Hogswarth” in the movies.Let's not leave out the Wessex region,where one can see one of England's greatest mysteries,Stone Henge.You can also go to the City of Bath,which has been famous for its medicines springs since the Roman times.Other popular attractions include Salisbury Cathedral,the landscaped gardens of Stourhead,and the cobbled (用鹅卵石铺的) streets of Shaftesbury.This is also home to Oxford,one of the world's most famous universities.Art lovers will also like a visit to East Anglia,whose landscapes inspired the painter Constable (he was born in Dedham village).This is also home of the University City of Cambridge,and the famous architectural attraction,King's College Chapel.Be sure to visit the aircraft museum of Duxford.4.The text is most probably taken from .A.a travel guide B.a book reviewC.a history paper D.a newspaper report5.What was Shakespeare's attitude towards the English countryside?A.Uninterested.B.Dissatisfied.C.Surprised. D.Admiring.6.According to the text,Lincoln city .A.produced arrows in the pastB.will be enjoyed by music loversC.was the place where the Eyre family once livedD.has one of the world's most famous universities7.When travelling the countryside,Harry Potter fans are advised to visit .A.the Wessex region B.DerbyshireC.Yorkshire D.AlnwickCDenmark is one of the happiest nations on earth with some of the best quality of life.You don't need statistics to understand the Dane's happy lot.Walk around any Danish town and you'll experience some of the most harmonious civic spaces anywhere.Their intimate scales and perfect transport systems combine the rich history and bold modern lines of the built environment to delight the eye,and the locals'manners and sense of humor is refreshing.Denmark's capital Copenhagen is a remarkable city with well-preserved medieval streets,renowned art galleries,Michelin-starred restaurants and a healthy business center.Finding something to do is never a problem and if all else fails,just admiring the streets with a hotdog in hand is an enjoyable way to spend a few hours.Beyond the capital and the bigger cities,Denmark offers a mix of lively towns such as Ribe and Odense plus rural countryside,medieval churches,Renaissance castles and tidy 18th-century villages.The coastline of Denmark with its sand dunes and greenery is a sight that always attracts visitors.So,no matter what time of year you're in Denmark,you shouldn't miss out on a trip to the nearest beach.It's hard,in short,to find fault with the place.The visitor's most heartfelt complaint is usually the cost of visiting Denmark.True,it is not a cheap destination,but no more so than the UK,and which nation's public transport system would you rather use?Cheer yourself up by thinking of the country's remarkable organization and clockwork railway timetable as being financed by the extremely high taxes paid by your hosts.When viewed in this way,this first-rate destination seems like good value,and you get the fairy tales thrown in for free:the Danish royal family is genuinely loved and respected by the vast majority of its citizens,not least handsome Prince Frederik,his beautiful Australian-born princess-bride,Mary,and their young family.8.The writer implies in the last two paragraphs that .A.visiting the UK will cost less than travelling in DenmarkB.the transport system in the UK can't equal that in DenmarkC.people in Denmark pay high taxes to welcome visitorsD.the Danish royal family plays an important role in politics9.How does the passage mainly develop?A.By providing examples.B.By making comparisons.C.By giving descriptions.D.By following time order.10.What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?A.To introduce Danish culture.B.To show the attractions of Denmark.C.To share experiences of travelling in Denmark.D.To describe the happy life people live in Denmark.11.Which of the following words can best describe Danes?A.Polite and humorous.B.Happy and romantic.C.Kind and friendly.D.Outgoing and humorous.DWhen I began planning to move to Auckland to study,my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India,where we lived.She worried particularly about the lack of jobs,the cultural differences and the chance that I would face racism.Despite these worries,I came to New Zealand in July 2009.I have found the place and people very nice and supportive.Soon after I arrived,I realized the importance of getting a job to supply my living expenses.Determined to do this on my own,I spent a whole day going from door to door asking for a job.However,I received little or no response.This became my routine every day after college for a few weeks.One afternoon,I walked into a

It is also usually the most exciting. As the leader comes into the stadium to run the last few meters of the 42-kilometre race,the crowd rises to its feet to shout and cheer. The name of the race comes from a battle in Ancient Greece. According to the story,a soldier ran from the scene of the battle,Marathon,to Athens,to bring the news of a Greek victory against the Persians. He died just after arriving.The marathon has been an Olympic event since the modern games started in 1896.At first the distance was 40 kilometers—the distance between Marathon and Athens. In 1908,however,at the London Olympics,it was changed. The King of England wanted therunners to leave from his castle in Windsor and arrive in a new stadium in central London. The distance was 26 miles—about 42 kilometers. In fact,the 1908 marathon ended dramatically(戏剧性地).When the leader,an Italian,entered the stadium he turned the wrong way and fell onto the ground. Officials picked him up and helped him to the finishing line,just as the second runner,an American,entered the stadium. The Americans protested(抗议)and in the end the American runner was declared(宣布)the winner. Since then,there have been many more exciting marathons.In fact,you don't have to wait for the Olympic Games to run or watch a marathon,as there are marathons in over sixty countries and hundreds of cities around the world today. One of the most famous marathons is in New York,and is watched by two million people around the streets and across the bridges of the city's five boroughs(纽约市的行政区),and past New York's famous landmarks. But perhaps one of the most beautiful and extraordinary(最特别的)marathons ever is the Great Wall Marathon,which most competitors find is the toughest course to run.The marathon is the final Olympic event because it is thought to be the hardest. But experts believe that most people—even people who are not particularly good at sport—can run a marathon,if they train for it.36.When the leader comes into the stadium,the crowd________.A.run to his or her feet happilyB.shout with excitementC.carry him or her to the finishing lineD.sing and dance37.Who ran to the finishing line first in 1908?A.The American runner.B.The leading runner.C.The Greek winner.D.The Italian soldier.38.Which is the most special of the marathon events in the world? A.The Marathon in New York.B.The Marathon in the Beijing Olympic Games.C.The Great Wall Marathon.D.The Marathon in London in 2012.39.What's the main idea of the passage?A.Marathon is the most important event.B.Marathon is the most popular event.C.Marathon is the hardest event.D.Marathon is the final Olympic event.BWhen a child is told he is“uncool”,it can be very painful. He may say he doesn't care,and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending it's not there.Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say,“Why are you worried about what other children think about you?It doesn't matter!”,children know that it does matter. Instead,an active way may be best. You could say,“I'm going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school.”If a boy is having trouble making friends,the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child's popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child,or let him be a partner with that child in activities,etc.There are things that parents can do at home,too. Be friendly when your child brings others home to play. Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider delicious. When you plan trips,picnics,movies,and other shows,invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may beshutting him out. Then,if he has good qualities,he can start to build real friendship of his own.40.A child who has been informed of being “uncool” may ________.A.care nothing about itB.do something uncool on purposeC.develop a sense of angerD.pretend to get hurt very much41.A teacher can help an unpopular child by ________.A.seeing the child as the teacher's favorite.B.asking the child to do something for partners.C.forcing other children to make friends with the child.D.offering the child chances to show his good qualities.42.How can parents help their child fit in better?A.By cooking delicious food for him.B.By being kind to his schoolmates.C.By forcing him to invite friends home.D.By taking him to have picnics in the park.43.The text is mainly about ________.A.how an unpopular child can be helpedB.why some children are unpopularC.what good qualities unpopular children haveD.who care about unpopular childrenCI used to know nothing about fairy tales. To improve my reading skills, my mother gave me books that are a little bit difficult for me to understand. I didn't even know that fairy tales existed until I attended public school at the age of eight. Of course once I found out about books of this type, I would read them as quickly as I could.Again and again, I begged my mother to take me to the library and let me choose a few. Finally, my request was granted. After our return from the library, I started reading them eagerly and energetically, one after another. And I tried to put myself in the female character's shoe. I found she had to suffer before the handsome prince came to her rescue, and then they would live happily ever after.I asked my mother why she never let me know about fairy tales. Looking straight in my eyes, she told me that life is not like a fairy tale. There are good and bad things that will happen through life. At the end though, there is not a man that will come and “save”us. We do not need saving; we instead want someone in our lives to share those good moments and bad ones; we want someone we can rely on and also they can rely on us. Life is not about “happily ever after”.What then is life about mom? Life is the boy finding he loves every little thing about you, even the annoying things. He holds your hands and says “come with me” and you live, laugh and love together. Butthings are not going to be perfect. You still have to face difficulties together, working hard for your relationship.44.Before the age of eight, the author________.A.received no formal educationB.took no interest in reading booksC.didn't read any books of fairy talesD.was forced to improve her reading skills45.What happened to the author after she attended public school? A.She started to like reading.B.She was crazy about fairy tales.C.Her mother always took her to the library.D.Her mother didn't allow her to read books of fairy tales.46.How does the author's mother like fairy tales?A.A must for her kid.B.Unnecessary for her kid.C.Easy for her kid to understand.D.Helpful in building her kid's character.47.The author's mother intends to explain that__________.A.life is not perfectB.no pains, no gainsC.life is about sharingD.one needs to live on his/her ownDAmerica is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while-then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don't show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time.Sometimes,we,as hosts,will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however,express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their dailyroutine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!48.The writer of this passage must be ________.A.a Chinese B.an American C.a professor D.a student 49.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A.Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.B.Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.C.Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy. D.Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives. 50.The underlined words “generous with our time”in paragraph 3 probably mean ________.A.strict with time B.serious with timeC.willing to spend time D.careful with time51.A suitable title for this passage would probably be“________”.A.Friendships between ChineseB.Friendships between AmericansC.Americans' and Chinese people's views of friendships D.Americans' hospitalityEIs early childhood education really necessary? Early childhood education primarily focuses on learning through playing to develop the child's physical, sensory, communicational and social development. Early childhood education has become a concern of the government, who pushes poor children to be formally trained before they are old enough for kindergarten.There are good reasons for the government to push early childhood education. Studies have shown that orphaned children who did not receive good care and education become developmentally delayed causing failure in school, and even in life. Further studies show that poor children who take part in Head Start programs are more prepared for school, less likely to end up in Special Education classes, and are less likely to receive public help or go to jail.There are also negative parts to putting a child in formal education programs too early. Time Magazine Online explains that “the younger the child is, the less his chances of catching up with first-grade work.”I have personally witnessed many children of my generation who went to Head Start programs become frustrated and bored with schoolbefore they finished high school. Yet parents have been sure that the earlier the child starts school, the better off he or she is, so they push to start children earlier.Actually while early formal education of poor children does show great gains in the early elementary years, studies also show that this head start is really a “false start”,as the gains are lost in middle and high school years. It seems that environment is a bigger factor on life's success than early education. Head Start programs have not achieved its original goal in closing the achievement gap in poor and middle school children. Perhaps it is time to find other ways to close that gap. 52.The government values the early childhood education in order to________.A.develop the children's communicationB.help the children to learn by playingC.get the children prepared for the kindergartenD.train the children formally and regularly53.According to the studies,________.A.children with good early education may have a rich lifeB.the orphaned children are usually unhappy in their life C.children without early education can do well at schoolD. Head Start programs are helpful to the poor children54.The underlined word “frustrated” in Paragraph 3 means________.A.dissatisfied B.unsuccessfulC.disappointed D.dishonest55.The main idea of the last passage is that________.A.the early childhood education is very necessaryB.Head Start programs have helped the children a lot C.environment is the most important to life's successD.better ways should be found to help the poor childrenⅣ.书面表达(满分25分)众所周知,体育运动在人们生活中的作用越来越重要了。

Unit 2第一节阅读理解阅读下面的短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。
AOn a hot evening in September, the Highland High School team was pronouncing to win its first game of the season. “I was really excited,” said Highlanders linebacker Ryan Ferrini. “This was the game when it finally cameHighlanders had to do was go one yard for a touchdown to seize a dramatic come-from-behind victory.On the previous play, after the Highlanders had driven the ball deep into the Tompkins' territory (防守区), quarterback Will Gentry had connected with receiver Austin Brauweiler at the three-yard line. As Brauweiler turned upfield, a Tompkins' defender delivered a hit, knocking them both to the ground at the one-yard line.“There was a huge force, as if a truck had hit me,” said Brauweiler, who suffered from the collision (撞击). But it was the Tompkins' player who got the worst of it. He lay still on the ground and a doctor had been called. That's when the Tompkins' coach walked across the field and told Highlanders' coach Colschen that his players were too upset to finish the game and they would lose the game.“In life, the wellbeing of others is what's important, not the scoreboard,” sa id Colschen. He gathered his Highlanders and told them it was time to support their grieving (悲伤的) competitors. They agreed.After the injured player was airlifted to a hospital, the two teams took the field again. The Highland team's teammates took a knee and didn't start any action, only waiting for the game clock to strike zero. Game over.“What my players did was amazing,” said Colschen. “I was surprised and encouraged that they were thinking not about themselves but about others.”【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了在一场比赛中发生了双方队员相撞事件后,其中一方的队员为了尊重对方队员将最后的比赛时间耗尽的故事。

More than two thirds of the world's polar bears will be wiped out by2050,according to a shocking new study.By then,scientists say,global warming will have melted42percent of the Arctic sea ice.By2100, only a very few of these important creatures will be left.The report has been produced by the US Geological Survey.The scientists have publicized their findings in the hope of influencing US Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne,who has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals,which are their main food. Without enough ice,polar bears would be forced to go onto the land,where they are killed by hunters,and would be unlikely to adapt to the life on the land in time.Experts say few little bears would survive and the stress could make many females unable to get pregnant.The team of American and Canadian scientists spent six months studying bears:on the ground,from spotter planes and in the lab,using computer models.Some team members fear the result is even worse for the bears than what their report says.They say the Arctic is warming faster than anywhere in the world and much faster than their computer had been forecasting,Satellite observations have showed that the ice has decreased to an all-time low.However,not everyone in the scientific community believes that global warming is happening on such an alarming scale.Another investigation has found that polar bears are still being hunted by wealthy "sportsmen"who want their skins and heads.At least ten international companies offer bear-hunting trips.(1)(2分)What do we know about Dirk Kempthorne according to the passage?A.He is an animal scientist.B.He is a protector of animals working for the US government.C.He was asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.D.He offered to put polar bears on the endangered species list.(2)(2分)Why will polar bears die out if there is not enough sea ice?A.Because polar bears can't catch enough food without sea ice.B.Because polar bears eat ice when they feel thirsty.C.Because polar bears will be easily found by hunters without ice.D.Because most female bears are used to giving birth under ice.(3)(2分)After a six-month study,some scientists fear that.A.there is something wrong with their computersB.polar bears will disappear even faster than they ever expectedC.their computer models are not as accurate as they expectedD.global warming will destroy everything in the Arctic2.(6分)阅读理解The British are known for their sense of humor.However,it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes.The main point to remember is that the British often use understatement.Understatement means saying less than you think or feel.For example,if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain,he might say,"It's a little damp(潮湿的)outside."Or,if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person,someone else might say,"She isn't exactly friendly."Understatement is often used in an unpleasant situation or to make another person look silly.Understatement plays an important part in British humor.Another key to understanding British humor is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others.They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life when someone accidently falls over in the street.They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society.They like to make jokes about their accents,the way they dress and the way they behave.What's more,the British love to watch comedies(喜剧)about people who do not know how to behave in society. The comedies series Mr.Bean is a good example of this kind of humor.Mr.Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in1990.Mr.Bean doesn't talk often,and instead he uses his body movement and facial expressions to make people laugh.Perhaps what makes Mr.Bean so funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do.Mr.Bean is popular in many countries around the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humor. Because of this,many people have become familiar with the British sense of humor.(1)(2分)Why is it difficult for foreigners to understand British jokes?A.The British often enlarge the fact.B.British jokes are connected with many different cultures.C.British jokes are not as funny as jokes in other countries.D.The British try to make out that something is less important than it is.(2)(2分)The author explains understatement by.A.describing a process B.making comparisonsC.following time order D.using examples(3)(2分)What can be the best title for the text?A.British Humor in Comedy B.Humor in Different Cultures C.Understanding British Humor D.Developing Your Sense of Humor3.(8分)阅读理解Where do the turtles go?Every summer,thousands of endangered green sea turtles climb onto beaches around the world. Each mother sea turtle produces100or more eggs in a hole,and covers the hole with sand before she swims away.Two months later,the eggs hatch,and the baby turtles climb out of the sand and swim into the ocean. They don't reappear until they have grown as large as dinner plates.Until now,no one knows where the baby turtles go or what they do."If we don't know where these little turtles are,we can't protect them,"says Kim Reich,who helps solve part of the mystery.Her teacher,Karen Bjorndal,has studied green sea turtles for more than30years.Every year, Bjorndal goes to the Bahamas Islands.Many young sea turtles come here to live and eat at the end of their childhood.These turtles are the only sea turtles that live as plant eaters.In fact,their name may be a result of what they eat.The turtles don't look green but they do have green fat.Scientists learned that the turtles eatgreen sea plants,which may turn their fat green.Between2002and2004,Bjorndal caught44green sea turtles in the Bahamas.After testing them, she found something to support the20-year-old idea:baby green sea turtles eat meat before they turn to a diet of plants.In fact,they eat animals that live in the open ocean.Scientists still need to find where exactly green sea turtles grow.We now know that baby green sea turtles are out in the open ocean,but the open ocean is a big place."It is really a problem,"says Bjorndal.The discovery may help us do a better job of protecting this sea animal.(1)(2分)What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A.Baby turtles go to the ocean when they are three months old.B.Mother turtles leave the eggs alone after they produce them.C.No one knows when turtles appear on the beach.D.Mother turtles are as large as dinner plates.(2)(2分)Kim Reich does research on where baby turtles go because she wants to. A.help her teacher B.prove an ideaC.protect turtles D.become a scientist(3)(2分)What does Karen Bjorndal's research prove about green sea turtles?A.The young live in the Bahamas Islands.B.The young eat meat before turning to a diet of plants.C.They live in the open ocean for a lifelong time.D.They are the only sea turtles that live as plant eaters.(4)(2分)What does the underlined word"It"in the last paragraph refer to?A.Finding out where young turtles grow.B.Protecting this endangered sea animal.C.Changing young turtles'eating habits.D.Living in the open ocean.二、任务型阅读(共1题;共5分)4.(5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。

AAnger is a kind of feeling. Many things can make you angry. When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game, when a friend borrows your favorite thing and then breaks it, you may get really angry.Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red, and you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes, you hide your anger. For example, you may hide it in your heart. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt.In fact, it's not good to hide your anger, and it's normal for you to get angry sometimes. But anger must be let out in the right way, without hurting others or yourself.When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people. It's helpful to talk about your anger with an adult, such as parents, a teacher, etc. When you talk about anger, those bad feelings can start to go away. Here are some other things you can do when you start to feel angry: talk to a good friend; count from 1 to 100; give someone a hug; go for a bike ride ; think about good things, etc.Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse. Don't let your anger control you.21.You may not get angry when ________.A. there is too much homework this weekendB. your favorite basketball team wins the gameC. a friend breaks your favorite thingD. your parents don't let you watch TV22.________ doesn't show that you're angry.A. Taking a faster breathB. Getting a headacheC. Getting a stomachacheD. Wanting to protect someone23.According to the passage, you can do everything when you get angry EXCEPT ________.A. go for a bike rideB. think about good thingsC. talk to a good friendD. say bad things to the people around you答案:本文是一篇说明文,作者说明了生气时人的外在表现和内在影响,告诉人们应该尽量控制自己的情绪,尽量避免生气,同时给出了排解怒气的方法。

Upon arrival in the West, many Chinese find they have to firstly put on the brakes. Li Feng, raised in northern China and now based in England, agrees. "The only thing Chinese people would be shocked by in Britain is how long it takes to do things," he says. "For instance, in China if you want to open a bank account, you don't wait, you just do it at the counter." Out-of-hours and weekend work is standard in China, but in Britain, the weekend is for family and friends.Jack Chen, who left his homeland 12 years ago and is now a lawyer in Belgium says office politics are simpler in Europe, partly because the hierarchy (等级制度) is less rigid than in China, where the boss really is the boss and social class in the office is very obvious and important. As a result, staff in a Chinese company think very carefully about how to present their views and ideas. Employees in the West can share their opinions more freely. In China you should have the wisdom to say something in an appropriate way. But in Europe you can just say what you want.The newest Chinese arrivals have a very different view to previous generations, according to Sharon Jin, who moved to the US 20 years ago and is now an American citizen. "Almost 100% of the people of my generation who came to the United States want to get a green card," she says. "But today younger Chinese plan to work for 10 years here and then return to China to buy a house or look after their parents." While a record number of 523,700 students left China to study elsewhere in 2015, roughly 70%—80% of the students abroad have been returning in recent years because of the attractive job market at home, according to the Chinese Ministry of Education.1.What do many Chinese find surprising while in Britain?A.That they drive faster than the drivers in Britain.B.That they can open a bank account at any time.C.That working extra hours in Britain is very common.D.That working pace in Britain is less fast than at home.2.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A.Jack Chen has been a lawyer in Belgium for 12 years.B.Employees in the West show less respect for their boss.C.Chinese employees are cautious when presenting ideas.D.People in Europe express themselves in a modest way.3.Why do most students return to China according to the Chinese Ministry of Education?A.It's hard for them to get a green card.B.It's easy for them to buy a house at home.C.They will have to look after their parents.D.There are more job opportunities in China.4.How does the writer organize the text?A.By interviewing students abroad.B.By comparing the differences.C.By discussing some facts.D.By listing some figures.CFinding a suitable name for a baby is a big deal in China. When picking out a Chinese name, parents usually select two or three characters that have a carefully thought-out meaning, but when deciding on an English name, many of them struggle. That's where Jessup and her company, Special Name, come in. In the last few years, Jessup has helped name 677,900 Chinese babies, and earned over $400,000 in the process, more than enough to pay her college fees.Jessup came up with the idea for Special Name in 2015, after accompanying her father on a business trip to China. One of her dad's business partners, a Mrs Wang, asked her to help choose an English name for her daughter. Jessup felt honoured and quickly realised the importance of choosing a proper name in Chinese culture. The woman wanted people to be surprised by the things her daughter could achieve, so Jessup suggested the name "Eliza" after the character Eliza Doolittle from the playPygmalion. Mrs Wang seemed delighted with Jessup's choice. "If Mrs Wang needed this service, maybe other parents would as well," Jessup thought.After returning to UK, Jessup borrowed £1,500 from her parents and paid a web designer to build a website. She then spent her free time filling up a database with around 4,000 English names, associating them with five major characteristics, like honesty and optimism.In the beginning, Jessup offered the service for free to promote the website, but later, she started charging fees. The business is almost completely self-sufficient, requiring only a small team in China that manages the technical operation. She updates the database each month, allowing her to focus full-time on her studies.1.What's the purpose of Special Name?A.To help Chinese teens go abroad.B.To strengthen children's personalities.C.To pick an English name for a Chinese baby.D.To make a deal with Chinese parents.2.What inspired Jessup to set up Special Name?A.A suggestion from a business partner.B.Her interest in Chinese culture.C.A Chinese mother's request.D.A character from a play.3.What did Mrs Wang want her daughter to be in the future?A.A woman with achievements.B.A famous actress.C.A successful businesswoman.D.A western culture expert.4.What can we infer from the last paragraph about Special Name?A.It offers a free service.B.It's updated every day.C.It's operated completely by itself.D.It is easy to manage.DJennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than the typical college student to pursue her goal of earning a nursing degree. That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor's degree.Mauer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm in a family of 10 children. Her dad worked at a job away from the farm, and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college, working to pay her tuition(学费), because there was no extra money set aside for a college education. After graduation, she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own. She decided to go back to college to advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves: nursing. She chose the UW-Eau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four-year degree close to home. She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids. Jennifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree: Her husband worked two jobs to cover the bills, and her 68-year-old mother helped take care of the children at times.Through it all, she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors. Jennifer sacrificed(牺牲) to achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study. "Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers," she says. However her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree. Jennifer is a first-generation graduate and an inspiration to her family—and that's pretty powerful.1.What did Jennifer do after high school?A.She helped her dad with his work.B.She ran the family farm on her own.C.She supported herself through college.D.She taught her sisters and brothers at home.2.Why did Jennifer choose the program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield?A.To take care of her kids easily.B.To learn from the best nurses.C.To save money for her parents.D.To find a well-paid job there.3.What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal?A.Her health.B.Her time with family.C.Her reputation.D.Her chance of promotion.4.What can we learn from Jennifer's story?A.Time is money.B.Love breaks down barriers.C.Hard work pays off.cation is the key to第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

Unit 2 单元测试题 2第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,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。
AThe idea behind Facebook is to make us feel connected all the time. But in my research, I’ve found that the truth is quite different.Technology, it turns out, has made being alone seem like a problem that needs solving. When young people are alone, even for a minute or two, they feel the need to connect, to get on Facebook or some other social networks and chat. But in connecting, they often end up feeling more isolated. Why? Because by being in constant (不断的) connection, they lose the ability to feel satisfied with their own company (独处).Facebook can help us keep in touch with our friends, but we too often use it instead of spending face-to-face time with them. And since we feel the need to keep up with them online, we don’t have moments of loneliness where we can collect our thoughts and learn how to be comfortable being alone.— Sherry Turkle, Professor Facebook connects more of us to more of our friends and family in more places than we have ever been connected before. Yes, Facebook is a huge time sink — maybe the biggest ever. Many people post useless stuff. Andseeing too much of your friends’lives can make you jealous (嫉妒的), but it won’t make you lonely.Jane, a former student of mine, who is back in New York after living abroad for ten years, told me that Facebook helps her a lot. The first time she moved back to New York from abroad, she felt disconnected from her family and friends. Now, because of lots of photos and information updates (更新), she knows what is happening with her friends all the time.In fact, if you are lonely in real life, you will be lonely online as well.— Sree Sreenivasan, Chief Digital Officer21. The underlined word “isolated” in Paragraph 2 means _____.A. freeB. selfishC. carelessD. lonely22. According to Sherry Turkle, we should _____.A. feel satisfied with our lifeB. avoid using social networksC. keep in touch with our friendsD. enjoy moments of loneliness23. What’s Jane’s attitude towards Facebook?A. Hopeful.B. Doubtful.C. Thankful.D. Regretful.BDear friends,How exciting it is to host this year’s Ontario Special Olympics in York Region from July 11 to 14. With events taking place across York Region, including track and field events in the city of Markham, I encourage everyone in our city to come out to cheer on the athletes.My special thanks go to the athletes, and their coaches and families, for all their hard work preparing for the Games. And they go to the manypeople who’ve organized and supported the Special Olympics. The warm-up events in support of the Games have been highly successful.Our city is welcoming over 900 athletes, coaches and family members to York Region for the Games, which are part of many Special Olympics events, in which 35,000 people across Canada are competing.I’ll be there, and I invite you to join in as well.Mayor (市长) Frank ScarpittiCity of Markham***Dear Ontario Special Olympics,Dylan Eisner is a special needs student at North Lambton Secondary School in Forest, Ontario. He couldn’t climb the stairs at North Lambton before he began training with the cross-country team. He is working very hard on his running. He took part in the 2013 season and completed the races in SWOSSA and OFSAA. His family, friends, running mates, coaches and all the staff felt proud of what he had achieved. One of Dylan’s goals is to someday be a player at the Special Olympics, which is especially held for people with intellectual (智力的) disabilities.Dylan was a special guest at the Lake Smith Conservationists Yearly Dinner this year. The Lake Smith Conservationists, a local environmental organization, decided to give a donation of $1,000 to the Special Olympics in honor of the young runner’s achievements. They hope that the money will be used to help players like Dylan achieve their dreams.Yours truly,Lake Smith ConservationistsMember Dianne Russell24. What kind of feeling is expressed in Paragraph 2 of Scarpitti’s letter?A. Worry.B. Praise.C. Doubt.D. Anger.25. How do people around Dylan probably look at him?A. He is a bit proud.B. He used to be a lazy boy.C. He has very poor social skills.D. He is a person with a strong will.26. The Lake Smith Conservationists _____.A. strongly supported Dylan in achieving his goalB. helped organize the Ontario Special OlympicsC. are made up of players with special needsD. received a thousand dollars from DylanC“Sam’s Journey” is the main attraction of an exhibition to be staged at Bugis+ shopping mall. The show, organized by five Singaporean college students, will start the yearly Anti-Drug Abuse Campaign (反毒品滥用运动) of this year. Besides the main attraction, there are many kinds of anti-drug games for people to play.“Sam’s Journey” takes visitors through a maze (迷宫) of activities and information that lets them experience how “Sam’s” life was destroyed by drug abuse.The maze starts with how “Sam” first started using drugs and became heavily dependent on them. In the middle of the maze, visitors get to wear a specially-designed pair of glasses trying to copy what it is like to be under the influence of drugs. Then visitors go through a dark room withlights flashing (闪烁) that give them an experience similar to the side effects of using drugs.“Sam’s” life goes further downhill once police officers catch him. Visitors get to experience what it is like in prison as one of the maze checkpoints is a prison cell (a small room built for prisoners).“We did not want to feed information through experts. We wanted people to walk through this maze to learn about drug abuse and its bad influences,” said Mr Jenson Seah, one of the five Singaporean students.As the student organizers hope visitors will learn valuable lessons from the show, they too realize that putting the event together was an enriching experience.“By working with officers from the National Council Against Drug Abuse, I learned a lot about drug abuse and it stretched (延伸) beyond my degree course learning experience,” said Mr Seah.The show, which will be given from June 21-22, is just the first of a series of events for the yearly Anti-Drug Abuse Campaign. Thetwo-month-long campaign will include an online photography competition and an Anti-Drug School Corner Competition.27. The students organized the show to _____.A. help a person called SamB. win an important competitionC. help people stay away from drugsD. show the harmful effects of using medicines wrongly28. What can we learn about the show?A. It will last two days.B. It is to be held in a college.C. It receives no official support.D. It includes a series of events.29. Jenson Seah believed that _____.A. it was better to let experts explain the harmful effects of drugsB. organizing the show let him know more about drugsC. the students’ teamwork was the key to the show’s successD. the courses offered at the show would help visitors a lot30. The author writes this text mainly to _____.A. introduce the yearly Anti-Drug Abuse CampaignB. describe five amazing college studentsC. provide some tourist informationD. report a special anti-drug abuse eventDIt started as a special day for Wesley Autrey, a 50-year-old construction worker in New York City. It was about 12:45 P.M., and he was waiting on a subway platform (月台) to take his daughters home before he went to work. He suddenly noticed a man nearby have convulsions (抽搐) and fall down suddenly. Mr. Autrey and two women went to help the stranger. The man, Cameron Hollopeter, managed to get to his feet, but then stumbled (绊倒) at the edge of the platform and fell onto the subway tracks. Mr. Autrey looked up and saw the lights of the subway train coming near through the tunnel.Mr. Autrey jumped onto the track immediately. He realized that he didn’t have time to get Mr. Hollopeter and himself back up on the platform before the train arrived, so he lay on top of the man and pressed down as hard as he could. Although the driver tried to stop the train before it reached them, he couldn’t. Five cars passed over them before the train finally stopped.

AOn the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You’re nervous and that’s okay. Everyone is afraid of high school." I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn’t figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didn’t think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it!Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.Since then, I’ve been elected(选举)the vice monitor of my class, which wasn’t much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.It is normal to be scared of a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is not so frightening. Make sure you participate in some out- of- class activities because you’ll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isn’t straight A’s.Most important of all, be who you are, whether you’re a "fool", an athlete, or a lower grader. Don’t try to pretend to be someone you’re not. Now you know the secret of my success.1. The main reason for the author’s fear on his first day in high school is that________.A. he was not familiar with the new surroundingsB. his schoolmates were unfriendly to himC. he was unable to work out the puzzleD. his schoolbag was too heavy for him to carry2. From the author’s first day’s experience we can infer that________.A. he didn’t know the right way to classB. he got to school before classes beganC. he was fond of the school immediatelyD. his home was far from the school3. After his first week at school, the author________.A. was still not accustomed to the scheduleB. was gradually used to the new schoolC. found high school not so challenging as he had imaginedD. ran for monitor of his class against three other students4. According to the passage, the secret of the author’s success lies mainly in________.A. making more friendsB. getting straight A’s at schoolC. being who he really isD. joining in out-of-class activitiesBIf you are like most students, you probably sit still while learning a new language. However, sitting still may not always be the best way to learn. English learners can improve their language skills through movement, says Tamara Jones. She works at the English Language Center at Howard Community College in Maryland.So, what is the relationship between physical movement and the brain? The idea is that the brain and the body are joined together. This means that one affects the other.Many people are familiar with the idea that the brain tells the body to move. And many people are familiar with the idea that repeating an action over and over again helps your brain to remember. However, some research, such as a study by Morsella and Krauss, suggests that your body might help your brain to find memories. Specifically, movements we make with our body, such as hand gestures, may help us to remember and use the correct words.This idea is part of the reason why experts on learning strategies, which are ways to improve the learning process, suggest using movements. One learning approach, the Cognitive Academic Language Learning Approach, or CALLA, calls the use of movements “Using Your Kinesthetic (动觉的)Sense”.Beyond helping the brain to find memories, movements also aid in learning, says Tamara Jones. There’s a lot of research that suggests what you do with your body, you remember with your brain. And also, a lot of these physical movements will encourage us in class or in life, when we are practicing on our own, to repeat and repeat and repeat the word as we are doing the physical movement, and this also helps us remember the word."5. Why does the author refer to Morsella and Krauss?A. To measure their achievement.B. To prove Jones’ opinion right.C. To introduce the theme of the passage.D. To present a commonly- held idea.6. How can physical movements affect one’s learning?A. By shortening the repeating process.B. By motivating the brain to remember things.C. By helping one to study in a relaxed state.D. By enabling one to use advanced words.7. Which statement may Tamara Jones agree with?A. Knowledge starts with practice.B. The body can control the brain deeply.C. Movements help the brain work better.D. Language learners must be more active.CLearning Chinese could be one of the most important decisions you have ever made. Chinese is becoming the language to learn in the 2lst century. With the world’s largest population and a rapidly growing middle class, China stands to become the engine of the world’s economy in the coming years. This will make learning Chinese very important for people in many industries, or for those of us who wish to visit China or learn from its culture and history.There is an ongoing effort to modernize the writing system and standardize the language. An increasing number of people learning Chinese are learning Mandarin, so unless you absolutely need to learn a dialect (such as Cantonese), be sure you are studying Mandarin.For native speakers of English, Chinese is one of the most difficult and most different languages to learn. The vocabulary is wholly unfamiliar and unlike anything we know. In addition, in the Chinese tone system, words are spoken in rising or falling tones, which help to distinguish between them. Furthermore, there is the Chinese writing system-a collection of thousands of individual ideograms(表意文字或符号), which represent a word or an idea. These ideograms have no phonetic value—that is to say, we can’t tell how the word is pronounced by how it is written. There is a method to present written Chinese in a phonetic script called Pinyin. If you are learning Chinese, you’ll be working with this Pinyin system, but the beauty of the traditional writing system shouldn’t be passed up. All these factors make learning Chinese difficult for us. Yet, for a determined learner, there’s always a way to overcome it.8. Learning Chinese is becoming more and more important, because ________.A. Chinese engines are very welcomeB. China has the world’s largest populationC. there are more and more rich people in ChinaD. China has become important to the world’s economy9. The last paragraph mainly tells us about ________.A. the difficulties of learning ChineseB. the advantages of learning ChineseC. the Chinese tone systemD. the Chinese writing system10. What would be probably written following this text?A. The sources of Chinese characters.B. The importance of learning Chinese.C. The advice on how to learn Chinese.D. The difficulties of learning other languages.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。

Following a successful three-month training period in the United States, the 31-year-old will chase a third title on Sunday after her first victory in 2002 and again 12 months later.Radcliffe clocked a time 2:18:56 in her first 42.2-kilometre race three years ago. Afterwards she set a “mixed course”mark of 2:17:18 five months later in Chicago before lowering that to a time of 2:15:25 in the 2003 London event.46. Radcliffe’s failure in Athens made her ______.A. face criticism calmlyB. rest for five monthsC. love people around her moreD. develop respect for Liz47. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Radcliffe broke the world record in the New York City marathon.B. Radcliffe didn’t fully recover before the New York City marathon.C. Radcliffe won her first marathon title in the New York City marathonD. Radcliffe had a 3-month training before the New York City marathon.48. By saying “I can’t put a number on it “, Radcliffe means she’s not sure ______.A. if she has the ability to set a new world recordB. if she can win another race though she has won many timesC. how many times a marathon runner can set the world recordD. if she has the ability to produce four or five world-class times49. According to the text, Radcliffe has won_____ London marathon title(s).A. oneB. twoC. threeD. four50. What can we learn from Radcliffe’s story?A. Practice makes perfect.B. Well begun is half doneC. A friend in need is a friend indeedD. Where there is a will, there is a way.BAthens will welcome the 2004 Olympic Games with open arms. Not only will the Games be returning to their birthplace, but they’ll also be entering a new period of Olympic history.The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has been looking for ways to make the world’s largest sporting event a bit smaller and easier for cities to host. Mexico is the only Latin American nation to have hosted the Olympics. And the games have never been held in Africa.It costs well over$4 billion t host the Olympic Games. And this is stopping many poorer countries from trying to win the bid. Cities in Africa and Latin America, with great social and money problems, cannot even begin to make the bid.So, the IOC has suggested 117 ways to make the Games smaller and easier for cities across the world. These ideas are to be put into practice soon---maybe in time for the Beijing 2008 Olympics. The IOC wants to save up to $400 million.The suggestions include limiting the number of sports to 28 and the number of athletes to 10,500.“Imagine a bus with 28 seats and some sports need to get off to give their places to other sports,”said an IOC official. Sports that might not appear in the 2008Beijing Olympic Games included baseball, softball and the modern pentathlon(五项全能)(shooting, fencing, horse, jumping, swimming and running).“We think that the Olympic Games have to be made smaller, and the less costly so that they can be organized by all continents and subcontinents(次大陆),”said IOC president Jacques Rogge.“Our dream is that a continent such as Africa will be able to organize the Olympic Games.”51. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. The Olympic Games have to be made smaller and less costlyB. The Olympic Games have to increase the number of sports.C. The Olympic games have to increase the number of athletes.D. The Olympic Games have to enlarge their global attraction.52. From the passage, we can know that the Olympics have been held in four continents EXCEPT____________.A. AsiaB. AmericaC. EuropeD. Africa53. The events which are most probably limited include ______ according to the passage.A. basketball, baseball and footballB. baseball, softball and volleyballC. softball, baseball and the modern pentathlonD. softball, fencing and pentathlon54. The purpose of writing the article is to ______.A. think highly of the Athens Olympic GamesB. make many poorer countries be able to organize the Olympics.C. increase the events of the Athens Olympic GamesD. make Athens enter a new period of Olympic historyCIt seems that some people go out of their way to get into trouble. That’s more orless what happened the night that Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty.“I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. As I got onto Highway 40, blue lights and siren(警笛) going, I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway. The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me. He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder.”But Hyde couldn’t go after him. Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident. But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove, hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car. As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult. Every turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene. Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination(目的地). At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene. His help wasn’t needed. Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the firebird, who by this time had developed something new to panick about.“Just about that time,” Hyde says, “ I saw fire coming out from under that car, with blue smoke and oil going everywhere. He’s blown his engine. Now he had to stop.”“After I arrested him, I asked him why he was running. He told me he didn’t have a driver’s licenseThat accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty—a thousand dollars for the new engine—not to mention the charges for driving without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving.55. The meaning of “panicked” in paragraph 2 is related to _______.A. happyB. fearC. angerD. hate56. Why did the driver of the Firebird suddenly speed down the highway?A. Because he was racing with another driver on the road.B. Because he realized he had to hurry to the accident scene.C. Because he thought the police officer wanted to stop him.D. Because he wanted to overtake other cars on the shoulder.57. Which of the following statements is true?A. Someone else was taking care of the injured person.B. The Pontiac reached its destination at the accident scene.C. Hyde knew where he was going by following the right car.D. The policeman was running after a speeder on Highway 40.58. The driver of the Firebird _________.A. took a wrong turn on the wayB. had some trouble with his carC. was stopped by the police officerD. paid for the expenses of the accident59. What is probably the best title for the article?A. Losing His Way?B. Going My Way?C. Fun All the Way?D. Help on the Way?IV. 短文改错High school in the United States is usually dividing into 60._________Two periods—the first two and three years is called “junior 61.__________high school”and other is “senior high school”.
