Her spine(脊柱) become bent as she grew older.Then,in 1925,her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident.Throughout the rest of her life,the artist had many operations,but nothing was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering,Kahlo taught herself to paint.In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera,another famous Mexican artist.Rivera’s strong infl uences on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works,show less influence from her husband.Unfortunately,her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and 1940s, even in her home country.Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953. For more than a decade after her death in 1954,Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world,but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.()4.What does th e phrase “a much bigger name” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?A.A far better artist.B.A far more gifted artist.C.A much stronger person.D.A much more famous person.()5.The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused by.A.polioB.her bent spineC.back injuriesD.the operations she had()6.Kahlo’s style had become increasingly independent since the.A.1930sB.1940sC.1950sD.1970s()7.What is the author’s attitude toward Kahlo?A.Devotion.B.Sympathy.C.Worry.D.Encouragement.CJane Clarke,My daughter is coming up to her finals.She eats reasonably well but less so in term time,as getting out to buy fresh fruit and vegetables is time-consuming.She has recently often had flu.Can you offer guidance on what to eat and drink when under pressure?Mary King,She should mainly take in the B vitamins,the group largely responsible for the smooth running of the nervous system,and vitamin C,which experts believe we need in much greater quantities when we are stressed than the usual.B vitamins are found in many foods but especially pork,bacon,nuts,dairy products,lean meat,fish,eggs and whole grains-so even if your daughter can’t shop regularly,other foods can work in her favor.Tinned oily fish are good,which can help to block production of the enzyme(酶)that makes us feel tense when under pressure.Fresh produce usually has the highest and best all-round levels of nutrients such as vitamin C,but if your daughter has a freezer she could buy frozen vegetables,which contain good levels.Fresh juice is another good source of vitamin C.She should avoid caffeine,as it increases the adrenaline(肾上腺素) generated at times of stress; water would be better.Frequent small meals can help concentration.High-sugar foods such as biscuits and sweets could make people feel excited,and patients often feel the same; better avoid eating them.Pasta,rice or a jacket potato,will help to calm us down. And drinking plenty of water can also help concentration.()8.If lacking vitamin C,one had better eat.A.dairy products and oily fishB.fresh vegetables and fruitsC.caffeine and biscuitsD.lean meat and fresh vegetable()9.We can learn that the daughter of Mary King .A.doesn’t have enough time to go shoppingB.is fond of buying frozen vegetablesC.is getting on well with her classmatesD.is too stressed to prepare for the finals()10.According to the passage,why should high-sugar foods be avoided?A.Because it increases the adrenaline.B.Because it can make students more stressed.C.Because it can excite people.D.Because it can make people fat.()11.We can infer from the passage that .A.the more water one drinks,the betterB.Jane Clarke knows Mary King very wellC.eating is closely related to people’s mental healthD.the daughter of Mary King takes in too much caffeineDEveryone talks about the “five” senses of man. And it is true that we get our information about the outside from our sense of sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste. Researchers tell us that the sense of sight — our visual sense — gives us up to 80% of what we know about the world outside our bodies; while the other senses,the auditory (hearing), the olfactory (smell), the tactile (touch),and the gustatory (taste) bring into our brains information about the other 20% of what is happening. But there are two other senses that we cannot get along without,though they are little noticed. These are the senses of balance (平衡),without which we would act like a drunk after a heavy drink,and the kinesthetic sense(动觉), which gives us our ideas about our own motion (运动).()12.Which is the best title for this passage?A.The Five Senses of ManB.The Senses of ManC.Senses and InformationD.Important Senses()13.The sense of sight supplies us with.A.about half of our information about the worldB.about 20% of our information about the worldC.80% of our information about the worldD.all the needed our information about the world()14.The senses of hearing,smell,touch and taste supply us with.A.about half of our information about the worldB.about 20% of our information about the worldC.about 80% of our information about the worldD.all the needed our information about the world()15.According to the passage,one misses most about the world when one.A.is blindB.is deafC.has no sense of taste and touchD.has no sense of balance and motionⅢ.完形填空(共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从每题所给的A,B,C和D项中选出最佳选项。

AThe country is India. A large dinner party is being given in an up-country station by acolonial official and his wife. The guests are army and government officers and their wives, and anAmerican naturalist.At one side of the long table, a spirited discussion springs up between a young girl and an armyofficer. The girl insists women have long outgrown thejumping-on-a-chair-at-the-sight-of-a-mouseera, and that they are not as anxious as their grandmothers were. The officer says they are,arguing women haven't the actual nerve control of men.“A woman's reaction in any crisis," the officer says,“is to scream. And while a man mayfeel like it, he has that ounce more of control than a woman has."The American scientist does not join in the argument but sits and watches the faces of theother guests. As he stares, he sees a slight, though strange look of anxiety come over the face of thehostess. With a small gesture she summons the servant standing behind her chair. She whispers tohim. The servant's eyes widen. He turns quickly and leaves the room. No one else sees this, nor theservant when he puts a bowl of milk on the balcony outside the glass doors.The American understands. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing. It is bait fora snake. He realizes there is a cobra in the room. The American's eyes move across the roombut he sees nothing. He realizes the snake can only be in one place - under the table.His first reaction is to jump back and warn the others. But he knows any sudden movementwill frighten the cobra and it will strike. He speaks quickly, the quality of his voice so arrestingthat it quietens everyone.“I want to know just what control everyone at this table has. I will countthree hundred - that's five minutes - and not one of you is to move a single muscle. Now! Ready!"The 20 people sit like stone images while he counts. He is saying ..o.. hundred and eighty.."when, out of the corner of his eye, he sees the snake emerge and make for the bowl of milk. Four orfive screams ring out as he jumps to slam shut the balcony doors.“There is your proof!" the host says.“A man has just shown us real control."“Just a minute," the American says, turning to his hostess,“How did you know that cobrawas in the room?"A faint smile comes across the woman's face as she repli es. “Because it was lying across myfoot.""21.What is the argument between the army officer and the young girl about?A. Whether women are afraid of mice.B. Whether men are calmer than women.C. Whether men are cleverer than women.D. Whether women would make suitable soldiers.22. Why is the servant asked to put out some milk?A. To play a trick.B. To serve the guests.C. To attract the snake .D. To feed the hostess's pet.23. Why does the scientist suggest the guests play a game?A. He doesn't want anyone to panic.B. He intends to test the officer's theory.C. He sees there was a snake in the room.D. He wants to entertain the other guests.24. What does the author imply through the hostess's final statement?A. The army officer's opinion is wrong.B. The hostess understood the American's intention.C. The American was surprised by the snake's presence.D. The hostess has had previous experience dealing with snakes.B25. What caused musicals to move in a new direction during the 1930's?A. The development of new musical instruments.B. The audience s demand for more realistic art forms.C. The rising popularity of other types of entertainment.D. The greater acceptance of black performers by white audiences.26. In which period did musical theatre become more complex and dramatic?A. Pre - 1900.B. 1900- 1929.C.1940- 1949.D.1950- 1959.27. What can be reasonably inferred about the musical West Side Story?A. It told its story in a new way.B. It was based on a true story.C. It was a non-Broadway show.D. It was not very successful at first.CIn 1874 Francis Galton, a British professor, analysed a sample of English scientists and foundthe vast majority to be first-born sons. This led him to theorise that first-born children enjoyed aspecial level of attention from their parents that allowed them to advance intellctually. Half acentury later Alfred Adler, an Austrian psychologist, made a similar argument relating to personality.First-born children, he suggested, were more diligent, while the later-born were more outgoing andemotionally stable. Many subsequent studies have explored these ideas, but their findings have beenvaried - some supporting and some rejecting the original conclusions.The main problem with the previous studies is that they were too small - often limited to afew dozen individuals. This would be true even if the statistical methods needed to analyse the datawere simple, but they are not. Distinguishing birth-order effects from those caused by family sizecomplicates matters, meaning still bigger samples must be analysed to obtain meaningful results.To overcome the limitation of these earlier studies, German social scientist Dr. HelmetSchmukle and his colleagues analysed three huge sets of data from America, Britain and Germany.These data sets, though collected for other purposes, included personality and intelligence tests on20, 186 people at different stages of their lives. The American tests were on individuals aged between29 and 35. The British tests were conducted on 50-year-olds. The German tests ran the whole span ofadult life, from 18 to 98.Birth order, they found, had no effect on personality: first-borns were no more, nor less,likely than their younger siblings to be hardworking, outgoing or anxious. But it did affectintelligence. In a family with two children, the first child was more intelligent than the second60% of the time, rather than the 50% that would be expected by chance. On average, thistranslated to a difference of 1.5 IQ points between first and second siblings. That figure agreeswith previous studies, and thus looks confirmed.It is, nevertheless, quite a small difference - and whether it is enough to account for Galton'soriginal observation is unclear. In any event, it is certainly not deterministic. Galton was theyoungest of nine.28. Alfred Adler concluded that first-born children were.A. more stableB. more sociableC. more intelligentD. more hardworking29. What does the underlined“they" in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The data.B. The analyses.C. The previous studies.D. The statistical methods.30. Why was Schmukle's study considered superior to previous research?A. It involved a wider age range.B. It had a much larger sample size.C. It included a larger number of countries.D. It was conducted over a longer period of time.31. Why does the author mention Galton's family background in the last paragraph?A. To confirm Galton's difficult upbringing.B. To suggest Galton's theory may not be correct.C. To compare his experience with Galton's parents.D. To explain why Galton was interested in birth order.DPhotography has opened our eyes to a multitude of beauties, things we literally could nothave seen before the invention of the frozen image. It has greatly expanded our notion of whatis beautiful, what is aesthetically(审美上) pleasing. Items formerly considered trivial, and notworth an artist's paint, have been revealed and honored by the photograph: things as ordinary as afence post, a chair, a vegetable. And as technology has developed, photographers have exploredcompletely new points of view: those of the microscope, the eagle, the cosmos.What is it that delights the human eye and allows us to claim that a photograph is beautiful?Photography depends on the trinity of light, composition, and moment. Light literally makes therecording of an image possible, but in the right hands, light in a photograph can make the image soar. The same is true with composition. What the photographer chooses to keep in or out of theframe is all that we will ever see - but that combination is vital. And the moment that the shutter ispressed, when an instant is frozen in time, provides the whole image with meaning. When thethree - light, composition, and moment - are in balance, there is visual magic.Light, composition, and moment come together in a photograph to bring us the ultimatereality: a view of the world unknown prior to the invention of the camera. Before photography, thebasic artistic rules of painting were rarely broken. Images were made to please, not to capturereality. But as photography evolved, painterly rules were often reacted in the pursuit of fresh vision.Photographers became interested in the real world, good and bad, and it was the accidental detail thatwas celebrated. Photography invited the world to see with new eyes - to see photographically - andall of the arts have drawn new inspiration from this change.With these basic aesthetic tools, photographers have evolved from scientists longing to“fix"an image - any image - to artistic revolutionaries. Photographs have created a new way of seeing,changed our ideas of beauty and, most importantly, made art more democratic. They have given usvisual proof that the world is grander than we imagined, and that there is beauty, often overlooked,in nearly everything.32. Before the invention of photography, which of the following was least likely to appear in an artistic work?A. A great person.B. A lovely insect.C. A grand building.D. A beautiful landscape.33. What is the function of paragraph 2?A. To argue that photographic beauty is subjective.B. To explain the evolution of the concept of beauty.C. To describe the elements that make a successful photo.D. To illustrate different types of photographic techniques.34. How has photography affected other art forms?A. It has reduced their popularity.B. It has forced them to change their rules.C. It has changed their methods of composition.D. It has provided them with new points of view.35. What does the author mean by saying photography has“made art more demo cratic" ?A. It has expanded the concept of artistic beauty.B. It has challenged the status of traditional art forms.C. It has enabled the development of new artistic tools.D. It has allowed more people to take part in creative activities.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。

The Founding of Red Apple Lunch CompanyCThe Mona Lisa effect describes the phenomenon where the eyes in a portrait seem to follow the person looking at it, no matter where the person stands in the room. The effect was obviouslynamed after Leonardo da Vinci s famous painting featuring the woman with the mysterious smileand the steady stare. But ironically (讽刺地), a new study/ finds that Mona Lisa may not be allthat interested in tracking her observers. Two researchers from Bielefeld University in Germanyfound that the famous subject of the painting, also known, as "La Gioconda"，is actually lookingjust over your right shoulder.For the experiment , Horstmann and his research assistant Sebastian Loth gathered two dozenparticipants to take a look at the eyes of the painting. But they didn't just ask them if they thoughtMona Lisa was looking their way. Instead they displayed part of her face on a computer screen,then asked volunteers to measure her stare using a carpenter's ruler that was held horizontallybetween them and the screen.Although the computer screen and the participants stayed in the same spot, the ruler wasmoved closer and farther from the screen during the trial. In addition, the researchers modified thesize of Mona Lisa 's face and how much of her features were visible to see if that changed theperception of her stare. I he images showed varying degrees of rise一from 30 to70 percent withsome showing her entire face and others showing just her eyes and nose.The researchers also moved the images several centimeters to the left and to the right, so theParticipants wouldn’t just pick the same measurement on the ruler each time.Horstmann and Loth published their results in the journal i-perception where they were veryclear in their conclusion.“We conclude from the measurements that the; lack of evidences due tothe declaration being objectively false: Mona Lisa does not stare at the viewer ,” they bt about the existence of the Mona Lisa effect---it just does not occur withwrote.“There is no douMona Lisa herself.28.

In a rush to leave the house we grab ou phone6 a head out of the door, realizing all too late that the battery is dead because we forgot 1oprog it into the table cloth. Orperhaps we have not. But this could be be future that scientists hope to explore with eletr6nicsheets that charge our Mobile phones, laptops and other equipment by harvesting energy from theworld around us.In a step in that direction, scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( MIT)havecreated super- thin，bendy materials that absorb wireless Internet and other electromagnetic wavesin the air and turn them into electricity. The lead researcher, Tomas Palacios, said thebreakthrough smoothed the way for energy- harvesting covers ranging from table cloths to giantpacking for buildings that catch energy from the environment to power sensors and otherelectronics.Palacios and his colleagues connected a bendy antenna(天线)to a flexible semiconductor(半导体)layer only three atoms thick. The antenna picks up wifi and other radio frequency signalsand turns them into a current. This flows into a special semiconductor, where it is changed into adirect electrical current. Researchers have made energy-harvesting“rectennas ( rectifyingantenna )”before,but existing equipment is made from conventional semiconductors which are inflexible, fragile and practically impossible to make in large sheets.The wi-fi signals can fill an office with more than 100 microwatts of power that is ripe to becollected by energy-harvesting equipment. The MIT system has an efficiency (效率) of between30% and 40%，producing about 40 microwatts when exposed to signals bearing 150microwatts ofpower in laboratory tests.“It doesn't. sound like much compared with the 60watts that a computergn a wide range of sensors,needs, but you can still do a lot with it,” Palacios said. “ You can desifor environmental monitoring or chemical and biological sensing, which operate at the singlemicrowatt level.”Medical equipment is another potential application. Because wi-fi and similarradio-frequency signals pass through people, energy-harvesting covers could be applied toimplanted sensors to provide them with enough power to send out health data to an outsidereceiver.32. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. The phoneB. The door.C. The sheetD. The table.33. What is special about the new breakthrough?A. It can harvest wi-fi energy.B. It is super thin and flexible.C It can power all the electronicsD. It smooths the way of receiving signals34. What can be inferred from paragraph 4?A The team will focus on improving efficiency of the new equipment.B. A single device can harvest half of the energy in an office.C. Palacios is pleased with the fie of the new。

deaths．What's more，while George VI's death was not announced until four hours after he died，news of the Queen's death will be far more instant．A footman in mourning clothes will be sent out of the

made his life a misery．I teased，tricked，embarrassed，and fought with him．often leaving him in floods of tears．Our little sister was born when I was 11．and instantly she and Mark could not be separated．They pushed me aside．Was this because I was becoming a monster，or did I grow into an uglier green ﹣eyed monster because they loved each other so much？Thankfully，Mark quickly grew tall and

suffered he has implied that he has forgiven me，or even that there is nothing to forgive，although I have never brought up the subject in too much detail．I would like to； however，it would be a selfish

AThe country is India. A large dinner party is being given in an up-country station by acolonial official and his wife. The guests are army and government officers and their wives, and anAmerican naturalist.At one side of the long table, a spirited discussion springs up between a young girl and an armyofficer. The girl insists women have long outgrown the jumping-on-a-chair-at-the-sight-of-a-mouseera, and that they are not as anxious as their grandmothers were. The officer says they are,arguing women haven't the actual nerve control of men.“A woman's reaction in any crisis," the officer says,“is to scream. And while a man mayfeel like it, he has that ounce more of control than a woman has."The American scientist does not join in the argument but sits and watches the faces of theother guests. As he stares, he sees a slight, though strange look of anxiety come over the face of thehostess. With a small gesture she summons the servant standing behind her chair. She whispers tohim. The servant's eyes widen. He turns quickly and leaves the room. No one else sees this, nor theservant when he puts a bowl of milk on the balcony outside the glass doors.The American understands. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing. It is bait fora snake. He realizes there is a cobra in the room. The American's eyes move across the roombut he sees nothing. He realizes the snake can only be in one place - under the table.His first reaction is to jump back and warn the others. But he knows any sudden movementwill frighten the cobra and it will strike. He speaks quickly, the quality of his voice so arrestingthat it quietens everyone.“I want to know just what control everyone at this table has. I will countthree hundred - that's five minutes - and not one of you is to move a single muscle. Now! Ready!"The 20 people sit like stone images while he counts. He is saying ..o.. hundred and eighty.."when, out of the corner of his eye, he sees the snake emerge and make for the bowl of milk. Four orfive screams ring out as he jumps to slam shut the balcony doors.“There is your proof!" the host says.“A man has just shown us real control."“Just a minute," the American says, turning to his hostess,“How did you know that cobrawas in the room?"A faint smile comes across the woman's face as she repli es. “Because it was lying across myfoot.""21.What is the argument between the army officer and the young girl about?A. Whether women are afraid of mice.B. Whether men are calmer than women.C. Whether men are cleverer than women.D. Whether women would make suitable soldiers.22. Why is the servant asked to put out some milk?A. To play a trick.B. To serve the guests.C. To attract the snake .D. To feed the hostess's pet.23. Why does the scientist suggest the guests play a game?A. He doesn't want anyone to panic.B. He intends to test the officer's theory.C. He sees there was a snake in the room.D. He wants to entertain the other guests.24. What does the author imply through the hostess's final statement?A. The army officer's opinion is wrong.B. The hostess understood the American's intention.C. The American was surprised by the snake's presence.D. The hostess has had previous experience dealing with snakes.B25. What caused musicals to move in a new direction during the 1930's?A. The development of new musical instruments.B. The audience s demand for more realistic art forms.C. The rising popularity of other types of entertainment.D. The greater acceptance of black performers by white audiences.26. In which period did musical theatre become more complex and dramatic?A. Pre - 1900.B. 1900- 1929.C.1940- 1949.D.1950- 1959.27. What can be reasonably inferred about the musical West Side Story?A. It told its story in a new way.B. It was based on a true story.C. It was a non-Broadway show.D. It was not very successful at first.CIn 1874 Francis Galton, a British professor, analysed a sample of English scientists and foundthe vast majority to be first-born sons. This led him to theorise that first-born children enjoyed aspecial level of attention from their parents that allowed them to advance intellctually. Half acentury later Alfred Adler, an Austrian psychologist, made a similar argument relating to personality.First-born children, he suggested, were more diligent, while the later-born were more outgoing andemotionally stable. Many subsequent studies have explored these ideas, but their findings have beenvaried - some supporting and some rejecting the original conclusions.The main problem with the previous studies is that they were too small - often limited to afew dozen individuals. This would be true even if the statistical methodsneeded to analyse the datawere simple, but they are not. Distinguishing birth-order effects from those caused by family sizecomplicates matters, meaning still bigger samples must be analysed to obtain meaningful results.To overcome the limitation of these earlier studies, German social scientist Dr. HelmetSchmukle and his colleagues analysed three huge sets of data from America, Britain and Germany.These data sets, though collected for other purposes, included personality and intelligence tests on20, 186 people at different stages of their lives. The American tests were on individuals aged between29 and 35. The British tests were conducted on 50-year-olds. The German tests ran the whole span ofadult life, from 18 to 98.Birth order, they found, had no effect on personality: first-borns were no more, nor less,likely than their younger siblings to be hardworking, outgoing or anxious. But it did affectintelligence. In a family with two children, the first child was more intelligent than the second60% of the time, rather than the 50% that would be expected by chance. On average, thistranslated to a difference of 1.5 IQ points between first and second siblings. That figure agreeswith previous studies, and thus looks confirmed.It is, nevertheless, quite a small difference - and whether it is enough to account for Galton'soriginal observation is unclear. In any event, it is certainly not deterministic. Galton was theyoungest of nine.28. Alfred Adler concluded that first-born children were.A. more stableB. more sociableC. more intelligentD. more hardworking29. What does the underlined“they" in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The data.B. The analyses.C. The previous studies.D. The statistical methods.30. Why was Schmukle's study considered superior to previous research?A. It involved a wider age range.B. It had a much larger sample size.C. It included a larger number of countries.D. It was conducted over a longer period of time.31. Why does the author mention Galton's family background in the last paragraph?A. To confirm Galton's difficult upbringing.B. To suggest Galton's theory may not be correct.C. To compare his experience with Galton's parents.D. To explain why Galton was interested in birth order.DPhotography has opened our eyes to a multitude of beauties, things we literally could nothave seen before the invention of the frozen image. It has greatly expanded our notion of whatis beautiful, what is aesthetically(审美上) pleasing. Items formerly considered trivial, and notworth an artist's paint, have been revealed and honored by the photograph: things as ordinary as afence post, a chair, a vegetable. And as technology has developed, photographers have exploredcompletely new points of view: those of the microscope, the eagle, the cosmos.What is it that delights the human eye and allows us to claim that a photograph is beautiful?Photography depends on the trinity of light, composition, and moment. Light literally makes therecording of an image possible, but in the right hands, light in a photograph can make the image soar. The same is true with composition. What the photographer chooses to keep in or out of theframe is all that we will ever see - but that combination is vital. And the moment that the shutter ispressed, when an instant is frozen in time, provides the whole image with meaning. When thethree - light, composition, and moment - are in balance, there is visual magic.Light, composition, and moment come together in a photograph to bring us the ultimatereality: a view of the world unknown prior to the invention of the camera. Before photography, thebasic artistic rules of painting were rarely broken. Images were made to please, not to capturereality. But as photography evolved, painterly rules were often reacted in the pursuit of fresh vision.Photographers became interested in the real world, good and bad, and it was the accidental detail thatwas celebrated. Photography invited the world to see with new eyes - to see photographically - andall of the arts have drawn new inspiration from this change.With these basic aesthetic tools, photographers have evolved from scientists longing to“fix"an image - any image - to artistic revolutionaries. Photographs have created a new way of seeing,changed our ideas of beauty and, most importantly, made art more democratic. They have given usvisual proof that the world is grander than we imagined, and that there is beauty, often overlooked,in nearly everything.32. Before the invention of photography, which of the following was least likely to appear in anartistic work?A. A great person.B. A lovely insect.C. A grand building.D. A beautiful landscape.33. What is the function of paragraph 2?A. To argue that photographic beauty is subjective.B. To explain the evolution of the concept of beauty.C. To describe the elements that make a successful photo.D. To illustrate different types of photographic techniques.34. How has photography affected other art forms?A. It has reduced their popularity.B. It has forced them to change their rules.C. It has changed their methods of composition.D. It has provided them with new points of view.35. What does the author mean by saying photography has“made art more democratic" ?A. It has expanded the concept of artistic beauty.B. It has challenged the status of traditional art forms.C. It has enabled the development of new artistic tools.D. It has allowed more people to take part in creative activities.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。

Yet we lose countless hours to daily activities that bring us little joy like taking buses and waiting in line. What if we could turn these little blocks of unoccupied time into precious and rewarding moments for learning and reflection?Founded in 2012, iReader, a micro-learning app on mobile phones, brings the biggest ideas from best-selling books through 15-minute audio (音频) and text. So far, more than 3,000 books have been included, ranging from psychology and parenting to management and economics, with new titles added every day.iReader is pioneering a new method of reading, with over 9 million users enjoying the benefits already. According to the Pew Research Center (PRC), the British read just 4 paper books a year and over 25% haven’t read a single paper book this year, but reading isn’t dying.There are now more ways for the British to read than ever before, due to the widespread use of e-books and audio books.The books in iReader are rewritten to ensure it is easy to remember the main content. The way the content is edited has been specifically designed to ensure it is useful in practice. Besides, the content is rewritten with relevant examples in real life, which means users are more likely to remember and apply what is helpful to them.Holger Seim, German co-founder of this app, declares, “iReader gives you the biggest ideas in the shortest possible time. It transforms great ideas into little packs you can listen to or read in深圳市2019年高三年级第二次调研考试英语试题第3页（共8页）just 15 minutes.”24.What does the author suggest people do in the unoccupied time?A.Read and think.B.Write and share.C.Avoid taking buses.D.Bring joy to daily routines.25.What can we infer from the PRC findings?A.The British benefit a lot from reading.B.Reading methods are more important than before.C.Digital technology are taking the place of paper books.D.New forms of books are changing the way the British read.26.How does iReader make the content easy to remember?A.By bringing fun to it.B.By making it useful.C.By using artistic designs.D.By taking users as examples.27.What is the best title for the text?A.iReader Prevents Reading from DyingB.iReader Unites Worldwide Book-loversC.iReader: The Best New App CreationD.iReader: Big Ideas in Small PackagesCI visited Elba last June, joining Mary and John on a bicycling vacation. They made the arrangements for the car, hotel and bicycles. I studied the history of the island, which of course particularly features Napoleon.深圳市2019年高三年级第二次调研考试英语试题第4页（共8页）Napoleon (now I know) picked Elba as a place for peace when he was forced to give up the throne (王权) as Emperor of France in 1814. Far from being a prison island, Elba is beautiful with towering mountains, thick forests and sweeping bays and beaches.It is also an island filled with treasure. Very early on this island, locals discovered rich deposits of iron. Soon outsiders, too, discovered the iron and 150 other valuable minerals on this little piece of land. Long before Etruscans and other Greeks set foot on it, Dorians had moved in by the tenth century B. C. and were mining the island. The Romans ruled next, obtaining the minerals and building grand houses overlooking the sea. From the twelfth century until the nineteenth, the island was traded back and forth and was passed to France in 1802. Then came Napoleon, the new ruler of Elba.I was eager to visit his house in Portoferraio. The Emperor lived with his court and his mother,Emperor of Austria. She lived safely there and showed little interest in visiting her husband in his mini-kingdom. Apparently, Napoleon wasn’t troubled much by this. He was too busy riding everywhere on horseback, building roads, modernizing agriculture and, above all, sharpening his tiny army and navy into readiness for his escape.In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to me that I could imagine the exiled (流放的) conqueror’s anxious thoughts. He might gaze over where I stood now, toward the lighthouse of the Stella fort, the sandy bay, and across it, the green mountains of the Tuscan coast. Napoleon spent only ten months here before making his victorious return to France and the throne.28. What did the author do for the visit to Elba?A. He did research on its past.B. He arranged transportation.C. He planned bicycling routes.D. He booked accommodation.29. Who might be the earliest outsiders to Elba according to the text?A. Napoleon and his army.B. Etruscans and other Greeks.C. Dorians.D. Romans.30. What does the underlined word “ensconced” probably mean?A. Settled.B. Locked.C. Cured.D. Controlled.深圳市2019年高三年级第二次调研考试英语试题第5页（共8页）31. What came to the author’s mind during his v isit to Napoleon’s gardens?A. Beautiful views on Elba.B. Terrible living conditions on Elba.C. Napoleon’s ambition to regain power.D. Hardship of Napoleon’s return to France.DAn international team of researchers from the University of Oxford have found that the way people use the Internet is closely tied to the seasonal movements in the natural world. Their online species searches follow the patterns of seasonal animal migrations (迁徙).Migratory birds (候鸟) flood back to where they reproduce every spring. That migratory behavior is accompanied by some human behavior. “In English-language Wikipedia (维基百科), the online searches for migratory species tend to increase in spring when those birds arrive in the United States,” said the lead author John Mittermeier.And not just birds. Mittermeier and his team surveyed nearly 2.5 billion Wikipedia search records, for 32,000 species, across 245 languages. They also saw variable search rates for insects, horsetails and flowering plants. Seasonal trends seemed to be widespread in Wikipedia behavior for many species of plants and animals.This finding suggests new ways to monitor changes in the world’s biological diversity. It also shows new ways to see how much people care about nature, and which species and areas might be the most effective targets for conservation.Mittermeier is encouraged by the search results. He commented, “I think there’s a concern among conservationists (生态环境保护者) that people are losing touch with the natural world and that they’re not interacting with native species anymore.

rising when Daryl's delivery truck reached the highway．This was the best time of day to drive，when the roads were wide open and empty．He felt sure he was going to make it to Los Angeles before midnight．It looked like it was going to be a good day．Then he saw it，a large lump in the middle of the road．Daryl often passed dead animals on the roadside but he knew then this was something different．He slammed on his brakes andthe truck screeched to a halt．The lump was a girl．He tried shaking her awake but she wouldn't move，so he picked her up and carried her to the side of the road．At least she wouldn't be run over there．Now she was someone else's problem．He had to make it to Los Angeles by midnight and didn't have time to be a here．He climbed back into his truck but as he looked in his mirror and saw the girl lying still by the side of the road，he knew he couldn't leave her．Daryl put her into his truck and drove to the next town．An hour later he pulled up at the police station．After explaining what had happened，he prepared to leave，only for the policeman to say that he needed to make a report．Daryl knew this would take several hours，but he had no choice．There was no way he'd get to Los Angeles on time now．Three hours later the report was done and the girl had recovered somewhat．She explained that she had fallen on the highway，weak from hunger，but could remember nothing else．She also thanked Daryl for saving her life．Daryl told her that he had been happy to help，but as he got back into his truck he knew his boss wouldn't be．Just as he was about to pull back onto the road，his mother called．"Have you seen？" she said，" A bridge collapsed two hours ago，the one that you drive over on the way to Los Angeles．"Daryl's blood run cold．If he had been on time，he

deliveries have become part of college life．However，a university in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region is trying to put a stop to this trend on its campus．On Nov 1，Guangxi University of Foreign Languages banned food delivery services and disposable food boxes，both to its campus and dormitories．The ban immediately received fierce criticism from the university's students，as well as internet users．Some complained that the ban made campus canteens very crowded．"There are not enough seats in the canteen，which forces us to eat standing up or squatting，" a student in the university surnamed Tan told Guangxi Television．The crowded canteens also mean that extra time is spent dining，which could have been used to nap during the lunch break．Some even complained that the canteen only provides a few dishes，most of which don't taste so great．Su Junlv，from the university's student affairs office，explained that the ban was carried out because off﹣campus food posed safety risks for students．It's believed that take﹣away food had created a serious garbage problem，as there were often a large number of used food boxes found in campus garbage cans after students had finished their meals．According to Su，the ban was also brought in to help students develop a healthy lifestyle．"While food delivery services bring convenience，they let students form some lazyhabits，" Su told Xinhua．"They spend a whole day in the dorm playing video games，watching TV soap operas and ordering food online．"However，in the eyes of Liu Junhai，a professor at Renmin University of China，there are other approaches that universities could take to improve their students' meal times．"Universities should explore how to improve the dining experience in the canteens，such as the queuing and variety of dishes，" he told Xinhua．（1）What does the passage mainly talk about？A．The convenience brought by food delivery．B．The effect of crowded canteens on students．C．A solution to stop students becoming lazy．D．A ban on food delivery in campus．（2）In students' opinion，what would be caused after the ban was carried out？A．It would take students less time to eat in the canteen．B．Students would enjoy various tasty dishes in the canteen．C．Some students may have their meals without seats in the canteen．D．Students would have a longer nap during lunch break．（3）According to Su Junlv，the ban is intended toA．tell the students all off﹣campus food is unhealthy．B．rid the campus of used food boxes．C．force students to spend less time on entertainment．D．improve the dining experience in the canteens．（4）What can we infer about Liu Junhai's attitude to the ban？A．NegativeB．SupportiveC．IndifferentD．Skeptical4．（8分）A survey of university backgrounds of heads of major global companies found that Harvard in the United States was the most likely place to have studied in．The Times Higher Education magazine ranked the universities attended by chief executiveofficers （CEO）of Fortune Global 500 companies．There are four US universities in the top 10，with three from France，two from Japan and one from South Korea．The highest ranked UK university is Oxford in 21st place．This league table，described as the Alma Mater Index，shows which universities around the world taught the bosses of some of the world's biggest companies．One in 20 had a degree from a single institution，Harvard．This included Margaret C．Whitman of Hewlett﹣Packard，Jeffrey R．Immelt of General Electric and Vittorio Colao of V odafone．But the top 10 for producing business leaders does not contain all the usual names that appear at the top of university rankings．Oxford and Cambridge are absent，but the University of Pennsylvania in the US and Keio University in Japan are included，along with three French universities，headed by the Ecole Polytechnique．Across the top 100，universities from the US dominate，followed by universities in China，Japan，France and Germany．There are more CEOs who went to university in Asia than in Europe．In terms of national comparisons，UK universities produced the sixth highest number of global chief executives，with Oxford in 21st place and Cambridge in 45th place．But even though Harvard might have taught the biggest number of bosses from the top 500 companies，it was not attended by any of the heads of the biggest 10 companies，who were from a more diverse range of universities．Royal Dutch Shell is headed by a graduate of Zurich University of Applied Sciences；Walmart is headed by a student of Georgia Tech and Exxon Mobil has a chief executive from the University of Texas，Austin．Three of the leaders of these biggest companies went to university in China and the head of Volkswagen went to university in Stuttgart．（1）How many Asian universities are among the world's top 10 universities for global CEOs？A．One．B．Two．C．Three．D．Four．（2）What does the underlined word "dominate" in Paragraph 5 probably mean？A．Decrease．B．Accelerate．C．Take the lead．D．Make great progress．（3）What can we learn about the UK universities？A．Cambridge University ranks highest among them．B．None of them are among the top 10list of the survey．C．They performed better than French universities on the list．D．They produced the second most number of global CEOs．（4）Which of the following can be the best title for the text？A．The Rankings of the Famous Universities in the WorldB．Which Is Described as the Best University in the World？C．Students Are Currently Entering Various Top﹣class UniversitiesD．Which University Tops the League Table of Where Bosses Studied？第二节（满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．5．（10分）Taking on a part﹣time job while pursuing a degree is hard work，but there are great benefits from that．Students with part﹣time jobs can eam their own money，develop good time﹣management skills，and gain experience in the workplace．（1）As they come into adulthood，earning an income can increase their confidence．Some students need to work through school to afford tuition．（2）Still，the money will be theirs to spend as they wish，and they may appreciate it more because they worked for it．Students taking on a job on top of their studies will have less free time than non﹣working students．（3）They learn to skip fun activities to finish their responsibilities．This prepares them for life after school when they can't find excuses for work that's not finished in time，Often，students take jobs that introduce them to their preferred career after school is over．（4）Even students who work in places not connected to their majors will look more impressive to potential employers．Employers look for employees who understand thework environment and work well as part of a team．（5）That will make it much easier for them to change their roles after leaving school．A．Others will set the money aside to pay back student loans．B．Other students may have to get help from their parents．C．Students having part﹣time jobs usually get employed easily after graduation．D．Having a part﹣time job helps students to get accustomed to the professional world．E．They tend to be better planners as they make sure they complete every task on deadline．F．Students who take part﹣time jobs will have more money than they would have otherwise．G．This allows them to gain experience in the business and begin meeting people in that field．第二部分英语知识运用（共两节）第一节完形填空（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．6．（30分）What I Learned From The Homeless Man Under The BridgeI was out for my usual morning run and

highway．This was the best time of day to drive，when the roads were wide open and empty．He felt sure he was going to make it to Los Angeles before midnight．It looked like it was going to be a good

to Los Angeles before midnight 可找到题中提到的地点Los Angeles，而从前文第一段第一句中The sun was rising when Daryl's delivery truck reached the highway 出现的delivery truck（运货卡车）可以知道他是送货去Los Angeles 的．故正确答案为B．2．A．细节理解题．根据第四段第二句He had to make it to Los Angeles by midnight and didn't have time to be a here 可知，Daryl 一开始只是把女孩放到路边是因为他没有时间在这里停留，他不想迟到．故正确答案为A．3．D．推理判断题．根据第六段第四句Daryl told her that he had been happy to help，but as he got back into his truck he knew his boss wouldn't be 可知，Daryl 自己很乐意去帮助那位女士，但同时为此而迟到了，他也明白自己的老板不会和他一样（高兴）．老板不会高兴，即是Daryl 之后会担心自己老板发怒．故正确答案为D．4．C．推理判断题．根据第七段中最后一句A bridge collapsed two hours ago，the one that you drive over on the way to Los Angeles 以及本段第二句If he had been on time，he would have been on that fallen bridge about two hours ago 可知，就在Daryl 运货路上的那座桥断了，而要是Daryl 途中没有帮助人而按时路过的话，他就会掉下去．Daryl 有种不寒而栗的感觉，是因为得知劫后余生的真相后受到了极大的震撼．故正确答案为C．【点评】考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．3．（8分）When ordering food only

2019届广东省广州市高三英语二模试题和答案详细解析及高分经验
高考家长做生活保障员相较于前两个角色，“生活保障员”的角色听起来似乎寻常些，“考爸考妈”往往会忽视其重要性。
殊不知，小角色要想演出彩更要多费心思。
刚卸任“考妈”头衔的刘女士表示，自己和丈夫最初也因用力错位给孩子造成了困扰。
刘女士夫妇都是医生，工作较忙，孩子自小由老人照顾起居。
去年孩子临开学前，刘女士与爱人出于过往对孩子疏于照顾的愧疚心理，商量后决定搬回父母家打理孩子每天的起居。
结果却是好心办坏事，一家五口的正常作息被打乱。
开学不到一个月，一家老小都疲惫不堪。
科学、规律的作息是具备良好精神面貌的前提。
对于高三生而言，稳定的家庭氛围、父母给予的适度关注是保持平常心的基础。
北京东直门中学心理教师张依雯表示，父母最好不要在孩子大考之年随意改变以往的起居规律。
另外，在生活方面也无需刻意提高孩子的待遇。
维持正常的生活习惯，在季节更替时提醒孩子注意穿着，一日三餐在兼顾孩子口味的同时做到按时令、按能量供应即可。
各省高分考生经验谈：不是靠聪明，而是这9个习惯同学们在进入高三之前，一定要调整自己的状态，为总复习提前打好基础。
那么如何才能做到这一点呢？又该如何准备呢？有这么一个公式：作文=1/2语文。
在各级语文考试中，作文分数在语文卷面分中所占比重最高，而且所占分数比重还在逐渐加大。
小学阶段，作文分数占语文总分30%左右，初中和高中已经占到一半。
同时，作文也一直是很多孩子无法攻克的难题之一。
很多同学经常绞尽脑汁也写不出几行字，好不容易凑够了字数，要么是文不对题，要么是内容空洞。
怎么才能写好作文呢？今年的浙江双科高分考生王雷捷同学给出了答案——大量的阅读。
作文不好，只有一个原因，那就是读书太少。
读的书多了，词语、素材和情感的储备丰富了，在写作上才会有异于常人的用词和构思，写出来的文章才会有深度有力量。
吉林文科高分考生曹宇涵最大的秘籍就是上课好好听讲，高效利用课堂时间。
她说自己上课特别认真，哪怕是已经会的知识也不敢忽视。

Beethoven,a famous musician in the world,was born in Germany in 1770.
In his childhood(童年)Beethoven didn't have a happy life. His father was a singer.When he was only four,his father began to make him practice hour after hour on different musical instruments.If he did not put his heart into it,his father would beat him or make it hard on him.
Beethoven loved music and he learned so fast that he was able to go around to give concerts,when he was only a boy of eleven.At the age of seventeen,he won high praise from Mozart,the great musician at that time.
Beethoven was often poor and ill during his life.After one illness,he suddenly found himself deaf.At that time he was only thiry－one.It was a real blow to him.But he still went on working and writing music pieces.To people's surprise,some of his best pieces were written。
