AMy newlywed husband said the same thing every morning. "You're beautiful today."One glance in the mirror revealed that it was far from the truth.A skinny girl with mashed hair on one side of her head and no makeup smiled back at me. I could feel my sticky morning breath."Liar," I shot back with a grin.It was my usual response. My mother's first husband was not a kind man and the harsh words we heard growing up took root. I had trouble seeing myself as someone of value. I had been married two years when I surprised myself. My husband wrapped his arms around me and told me I was beautiful."Thank you," I said.The same thin girl with the mousy brown hair still stared back at me in the mirror, but somehow the words had finally blossomed in my heart.A lot of years have passed. My husband has grey in his hair. I'm no longer skinny. Last week I woke up and my husband's face was inches from mine."What are you doing?" I asked.I covered my mouth, trying to hide my morning breath. He reached down and kissed my face."What I do every morning," he said.He leaves in the early hours of the morning while I sleep. When he left, I rolled over and hugged my pillow. I envisioned the picture of me lightly snoring with my mouth open and giggled.What a man! My husband understands my past. He's been beside me as I've grown from an unsure young girl to a confident woman, mother, speaker and author.But I'm not sure that he understands the part he played in that transition. The words I heard growing up pierced my soul, yet his words pierced even deeper.This Anniversary Day I plan to wake early. I want to tell Richard how much I love him. He may look in the mirror and see an extra pound or two, or wish for the day when his hair was dark and curly, but all I'll see is the man who saw something in me when I couldn't see it myself, and who leaves butterfly kisses, even after twenty three years of marriage.21. Why did the author give “liar” as a usual response?A. She developed such a habit.B. She was not beautiful actually.C. Her husband always cheated her.D. Her childhood made her unconfident.22. How did the author feel when her husband told her she was beautiful ?A. Pleased.B. Cheated .C. Proud .D.Strange .23. What does the underlined word “pierce” mean?A. To make a hole.B. To influence deeply.C. To break through.D. To see suddenly.24.Which can be the best title for the passage?A. Pretty WomanB. Butterfly KissesC. A Perfect MarriageD.

Birds , fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time . They mover for different reasons : most of them move to find food more easily , but others move to get away from places that are too crowded .When cold weather comes , many birds move to warmer places to find food . Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed . The most famous migration（迁移）is probably the migration of fish , which is called “salmon ”. This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water . There it spends its life . When it is old , it returns to its birthplace in fresh water . Then it gives birth and dies . In northern Europe , there is a kind of mouse . They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded . They move down to the low land . Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside , and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea .Recently , scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster（龙虾）. Every year , when the season of the bad weather arrives , the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean . Nobody knows why they do this , and nobody knows where they go .So , sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another , but at other times we don’t . Maybe living things just like to travel .29.

I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama’s Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President . A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was , in his words , “ a brilliantly written book ” . However , he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all . I sensed that I was talking to a book liar .And it seems that my friend is not the only one . Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t . In the World Book Day’s “ Report on Guilty Secrets ” , Dreams From My Father is at number 9 . The report lists ten books , and various authors , which peopl e have lied about reading , and as I’m not one to lie too often ( I’d hate to be caught out ) , I’ll admit here and now that I haven’t read the entire top ten . But I am pleased to say that , unlike 42 percent of people , I have read the book at number one , George Orwell’s 1984 , I think it’s really brilliant .The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it . It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen , Charles Dickens , Fyodor Dostoevsky ( I haven’t read him , but haven’t lied about it either ) and Herman Melville .Asked why they lied , the most common reason was to “ impress ” someone they were speaking to . This could be tricky if the conversation became more in-depth !But when asked which authors they actually enjoy , people named J.K.Rowling , John Grisham , Sophie Kinsella ( ah , the big sellers , in other words ) . Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story ( I’ll come clean : I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so ) .33. How did the author find his friend a book liar ?A. By judging his manner of speaking .B. By looking into his background .C. By mentioning a famous name .D. By discussing the book itself .34.

2016高三英语模拟卷新课标全国卷

2016高三英语模拟卷（一）第二部分阅读理解(共20题，每题2分，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。

AWhile income worry is a rather common problem of the aged, loneliness is another problem that aged parents may face. Of all the reasons that explain their loneliness, a large geographical distance between parents and their children is the major one. This phenomenon is commonly known as “Empty Nest Syndrome”(空巢综合症).In order to seek better chances outside their countries, many young people have gone abroad, leaving their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will return home. Their parents spend countless lonely days and nights, taking care of themselves, in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them. The fact that most of these young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they had not left their countries. Whatever the case, it has been noted that the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually do. This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the grown-up children from providing response in time for their aged parents living by themselves.The situation in which grown-up children live far away from their aged parents has been described as “distant parent phenomenon”, which is common both in developed countries and in developing countries. Our society has not yet been well prepared for “Empty Nest Syndrome”.21. According to the passage, the loneliness of aged parents is mainly caused by _______.A. their earlier experience of feeling lonelyB. the unfavorable living conditions in their native countriesC. the common worry about their incomeD. the geographical distance between parents and children22. If young people go abroad, _________.A. they do not hold to the value of duty at allB. they can give some help to their parents back homeC. they cannot do what they should for their parentsD. they believe what they actually do is right23. From the last paragraph, we can infer that ________.A. the situations in the developed and developing countries are differentB. “Empty Nest Syndrome” has arrived unexpectedly in our societyC. children will become independent as soon as they go abroadD. the aged parents are not fully prepared for “Empty Nest Syndrome”BWhen people were building houses, they used to consider not only the climate of the areas but also the building materials and the fashions for their houses. However, since electricity became more and more expensive, people began to pay much more attention to the energy they could get for their houses and the new ways they could find to protect their houses from both cold and heat.Now, houses of an old yet new type have been widely built. In some parts of the world, people share their houses with their livestock (家畜).During cold weather, they gather their cows, goats, or other animals and keep them on the first floor of their houses. The reasons are that the animals can be protected from the cold and that they can help to heat the houses as well. The body heat given off by the animals rises to the second floor of the houses, where people live. By sharing their houses with their livestock, people gain a source ofheat.People who live in or near cities do not usually keep livestock. However, home builders use the fact that heat rises. This natural law can be used in building houses in these areas. Instead of keeping livestock on the first floor, builders fill it with large rocks. As they are open to the sun’s rays during cold weather, these rocks take in heat. They also give off the heat, and, of course, the warm air rises into the living areas of the houses. So these houses are energy-saving.House-building becomes a great challenge to building designers and energy engineers. They try to meet this challenge by learning from old traditions and by using modern technology. And someday in the future, people will be able to live in more energy-saving houses.24. What did people begin to consider as electricity was no longer cheap?A.The climate of their areas.B.The energy for their houses.C.The fashions for their houses.D.The building materials for their houses.25. People in some areas gain a source of heat by ________.A.keeping their livestock downstairsB.protecting their livestock from the coldC.sharing their houses only with their cowsD.living on the second floor with their livestock26. The underlined words “natural law” in the third paragraph refer to the fact that ________.A.heat raises the temperature in the housesB.heat goes in the upward directionC.heat goes up if temperature is raisedD.heat increases the temperature of rocks27. From the passage, we can conclude that ________.A.people will no longer consider building materials in the futureB.almost all people will move into the houses heated by large rocksC.energy-saving buildings will become more popular in the futureD.energy engineers will devote themselves only to modern technologyCPlanning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.A VOID BIG EVENTS Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.) cost £169.15 at . A week later, the same room cost £118.15.If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid—or you’re looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as , which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.STAY AW AY FROM THE STA TION If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.Don’t be too choosy about th e part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge’s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was £95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was £75.75. And at Farringdon, a double room cost just £62.95.LOOK AFTER YOURSELF Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune, especially at weekends and during big events. As an alternative consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen. Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city center buildings. A great example is the historic O’Neill Flat on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, available for £420 for five days in late September, with rooms for four adults.GET ON A BIKE London’s ‘Boris bikes’ have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmers that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transportor car parking costs.Among the smaller cities with their own programmers are Newcastle (casual members pay around £1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or £5 per day).28. The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events may ________.A. help travelers pass timeB. attract lots of travelers to the UKC. allow travelers to make flexible plansD. cause travelers to pay more for accommodation29. The passage shows that the O’Neill Flat ________.A. lies on the ground floorB. is located in central LondonC. provides cooking facilities for touristsD. costs over £100 on average per day in late September30. Cardiff’s program allows a free bike for a maximum period of ________.A. half an hourB. one hourC. one hour and a halfD. two hours31. The main purpose of the passage is _______.A. to tell visitors how to book in advanceB. to supply visitors with hotel informationC. to show visitors the importance of self-helpD. to offer visitors some money-saving tipsDArt is considered by many people to be no more than a decorative means of giving pleasure. This is not always the case, however, at times, art may be seen to have a purely functional side as well. Such could be said of the sandpaintings of the Navaho Indians of the American Southwest; these have a medicinal as well as an artistic purpose.According to Navaho traditions, one who suffers from either a mental or a physical illness has in some way disturbed or get in touch with the supernatural--perhaps a certain animal, a ghost, or the dead. To break away f rom this, the ill person or one of his relatives will employ a medical man called a “singer” to perform a curing ceremony which will attract a powerful supernatural being. During the ceremony, which may last from 2 to 9 days, the “singer” will produce a sa ndpainting on the floor. On the last day of the ceremony, the patient will sit on this sandpainting and the “singer” will rub the sick or injured parts of the patient’s body with sand from a specific figure in the sandpainting. In this way the patient absorbs the power of that particular supernatural being and becomes strong. After the ceremony, the sandpainting is destroyed so its power won’t harm anyone.The art of sandpainting is handed down from old “singers”. The materials used are easily found where the Navaho settle: brown, red, yellow, and white sandstone, which is ground(研磨) much as corn is made into flour. The “singer” holds a small amount of this sand in his hand and lets it flow between his fingers onto a clean, flat surface on the floor, with a steady hand and great patience. He is thus able to create designs of stylized people, snakes and other creatures that have power in the Navaho belief system. The traditional Navaho doesn’t allow copying sandpaintings, since he believes the supernatural po wers that taught him the craft have forbidden this; however, such reproductions can in fact be purchased today in tourist shops in Arizona and New Mexico. These are done by either Navaho Indians or by other people who wish to preserve this craft.32. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. The Navaho IndianB. The Ancient “Singer”C. Functions of ArtD. The Navaho Sandpaintings33. How did the “singer” treat the patient according to the passage?A. By passing his supernatural power on to the patient.B. By applying a magic substance to the patient’s body.C. By rubbing the patient’s sick parts with sand from a sandpainting figure.D. By destroying the sandpainting figure.34. The traditional Navaho does not allow copying of sandpaintings because _______.A. anything copied has no effectB. the craft only belongs to the supernaturalC. it’s against Navaho belief systemD. the copying may do harm to other Navahos35. That the reproductions of sandpaintings are now commercially available shows ________.A. people have realized the artistic value of sandpaintingsB. patients have benefited from the powerful effect of sandpaintingsC. more people have come to believe in supernatural powerD. modern technology has helped the production of sandpaintings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。

Sherrard had passion for carpentry(木工) and showed promise at a very young age. “I first got interested in wood -making when I was in Grade 10,”he says. “I had taken wood shop before but it never became a hobby of mine until my school started to get hard wood into the shop classes.”“I real ized how much fun woodworking was and took all the wood-shop classes I could and started spending time in the shop after school,”he says. “I got a summer job working with my uncle and used most of the money I made to buy woodworking tools and quickly turn ed my dad’s little shop into my own woodworking shop.” His skills and knowledge were sharpened and tested in the woodworking program.All this went a long way in preparing him for full-time employment and taught him what to expect when he started working.“The biggest challenge to secure a good job with my training and skill set would be to keep up with all the different products and new designs,” he says. “I have only been in the industry for a few years but even my boss , who has been doing this for many years, is still learning new things all the time.”Sherrard’s passion for his skill has brought him this far but his thirst for learning keepspushing him further. He’s already planning to go back to school to study engineering.61. What can we know about WorldSkills Competition?A. It provides professional training.B. It is a top event for skilled youth.C.

Confidence.C. Honour.D. Interest.65. What might Dustin Sherrard do next?A. Retum to school to study.B. Find a’ better job.C. Take part in more competitions.D. Work together with his uncle.CDo you forget to turn off the lights and heaters when you go out of a room? In 2040 it will not matter. They will turn themselves off and on again when you return. You will choose the temperature for each room, the lighting and the humidity. A sensor will detect the presence of a human ( and, with luck, ignore the dog!) and turn the systems on, and when the humans leave it will turn them off again.The sensors will work through the central home computer, and they will do much more than just turn the fires and lights on and off. They will detect faulty electrical appliances, plugs or switches, isolate (切断) them so that they cannot harm anyone, and then warn you that they need repair. They will detect fire and if you are out of the house, the computer will call the fire brigade. It will also call the police if the sensors should detect an intruder (不速之客). This will not be too difficult because the locks on the outside doors will be electronic. You will open them using your personal card — the one you use for shopping — maybe using a number known only to you.It will be impossible to lose the key, and a housebreaker will have to tamper (拨弄) with the lock or with a window. It is not very difficult to make such tampering send a signal to the computer.The computer will be more than a fireman-policeman-servant. It will be an entertainer, and most of your entertainment will come right into your home. It does now, of course, but by 2040 “entertainment” will mean much more. For one thing, you will be able to take part actively, rather than just wat ching…66. The author intends to tell us that ________.A. in 2040 we will live without the lights and heatersB. in 2040 we will use much more lights and heatersC. in 2040 lights and heaters will be on and off automaticallyD. in 2040 there will be no switches of lights and heaters67. Which of the following statement is NOT true?A. You can be taken for an intruder if you tamper with the lock or with a window.B. The sensor will detect fire and make an emergency call.C. Without a computer, the sensor can not do much.D. The sensor is multi-functional.68. According to the author, in 2040, new technology _______ .A. will turn everything into sensorsB. will free us from the keys we use todayC. will make the lock out of dateD. will remove all crimes69. Thanks to computers, in 2040 people ________.A. will have no entertainment outsideB. will replace TV with computersC. will be controlled by computersD. will have more fun at home70.

2016年高考英语全国模拟卷

高考英语模拟题第I卷第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分60分）第一节（共15小题;每小题3分，满分45分）ATo avoid becoming the lead story on the evening news, be prepared. Before you head out on a hike, check the weather, take plenty of water, and make sure someone knows where you’ll be and when you’ll be back. Bring clothes to keep you warm when wet. Avoid cotton, which is easy to take in moisture(潮气).“To avoid getting lost, check often to make sure you’re still on the trail(路线),” says John Dill, a search-and-rescue worker at Yosemite National Park in California. “The minute you think you might not be on the trail, stop.” If you’re not alone, focusing on the needs of others can help you get rid of your own fears. Other keys to survival: staying observant and remembering to rest. The surest way to get out alive is to take basic precautions(预防措施), such as taking a set of survival equipment. It includes waterproof matches for starting a fire, a folding knife for cutting branches, and a plastic tarp(防水布) for making shelter.Generally, people who try to find their own way out get along worse than those who stay, says Richard N. Bradley, MD, of the American Red Cross. Find shelter before dark, and try to keep dry. Stay visible so that anyone searching can see you. In a wide-open area, make a signal with colorful tools, make a big X out of rocks, or dig a long shallow hole.You can go several days without eating, so in most cases, you’d better not search for food, since there are lots of poisonous plants in the wild, says Dr Bradley. You cannot survive without water, so if you run out of water, it’s usually better to drink from a stream with suspect water than to go without. 21. By saying “becoming the lead story on the evening news” in Para. 1, the author really means ______.A. you will be interviewed by the journalistB. you will become famous for your survival in a forestC. the news that you are lost will spread around quicklyD. your experience in the wild will be reported in the evening news22. According to the writer, how can you avoid getting lost when you are alone?A. Make sure you don’t leave the trail.B. Remember not to stop onthe trail.C. Try to look for others’ help.D. Overcome the fear of getting lost.23. According to the passage, you may get into trouble if you ______.A. try to find food to fill your stomach in the wildB. stay in the shelter before darkC. remain where you get lost and wait for helpD. drink water from the stream24. Why does the author suggest digging a long shallow hole in a wide-open area when you get lost?A. To find some water to drink.B. To store some food you’ve brought along.C. To attract the rescuer’s attention.D. To use it as a shelter.BMany New Zealand children are being studied for sleep disorders(紊乱) after overloading on technology before bedtime. Specialists say computers and televisions disturb sleep patterns and cause learning, concentration and growth problems.Dr Alex Bartle, director of the Sleep Well Clinic, said that different sorts of technology were keeping children awake. Computer games and social networking sites such as Bebo and Facebook were worse than TV for exciting young minds because they were more interactive(互动的). They should be switched off at least an hour before bedtime. “To fall asleep, you need to have a certain amount of calmness in the brain,” said Bartle. “being excited doesn’t help those brainwaves settle.”Professor Philippe Gander, director of Massey University’s Sleep / Wake Research Centre, said poor sleep had been linked to learning, behavioral and growth problems.Bartle said parents should make sure that children were well-rested and not kept awake by the technology surrounding them. “They need to encourage kids to get out during the day. Watching TV or playing on computers as soon as they get home isn’t good from a sleep point of view. Parents need to be strong enough to remove TVs or computers.”In Britain, National Health Service data show almost 3,000 under-11s werereferred to specialists for problems such as sleeplessness and sleep-walking(梦游) in 2007, up 26 percent from 2002.While there are no figures in New Zealand, experts have no doubt that the number of children in need of help is on the increase. “We have the same sorts of technology, the same lifestyles,” said Bartle.The Child Health Research Foundation in New Zealand has funded(资助) studies on sleep problems and is waiting for the results.25. What does “technology”mainly refer to according to the passage?A. pianos and guitarsB. televisions and computersC. learning machinesD.MP3s and MP4s26. According to Dr Alex Bartle’s opinion, we can learn that ______.A. Children should not watch TV or play online games in the eveningB. Watching TV does more harm to children than playing computer gamesC. Some parents fail to set a limit on the time their children spend on technologyD. About 3,000 New Zealand under-11s have sleep problems in 200727. Experts are sure that the number of New Zealand children with sleep problems is increasing because _____.A. New Zealand children play more online games than British childrenB. They have exact data from National Health ServiceC. New Zealand children are in the same situation as the British childrenD. They have exact data provided by hospitals28. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Children like computer games.B. Technology disturbs children’s sleep.C. The ways of dealing with sleep disorders.D. New Zealand parents should prevent children from watching TV.CTo “sacrifice” means to give up something in exchange for something better. My husband and I decided to make a sacrifice and exchange city life and move to a seaside village with our children aged 9 and 3 years. We had a beautiful home in the city and plenty of money but little real safety because crime was on the increase every day. We never knew if we would all make it safely home at night. I hoped my children would be brought up in a peaceful and friendly environment.We were very happy in our new town, but life was very difficult economically. Income was based on the tourist seasons and jobs were few. Although many of the long- standing residents(居民) were well off in the town, it was a very competitive environment for newcomers. We had to adapt to the difficult new life over the past four years.Reading the newspapers from the big cities made us better believe that we had made the right choice. But it was not always easy to explain to the children why they could no longer have what they used to have.However, our little daughter proved to me she had the ability to think about problems in a reasonable way. The son of a visiting friend preferred riding in the back of our old little truck to his father’s big car.Our little daughter called me and said, “Mom, please help me to explain to James that he is wrong. He says that ‘Today, if you don’t have money you are nothing.’ I know that is not true. If you do have money you share it with your friends and if you don’t have money and they do, they share it with you. That is what makes us all rich.” It made me realize that the sacrifice was well worth it.29. Why did the family move away from the city?A. They were tired of the city life.B. The city was not safe enough.C. Pollution in the city was serious.D. Life in the city was expensive.30. What was the worst to the author’s family in their new town?A. They couldn’t get used to the weather.B. It was hard for them to get a steady and satisfying income.C. Their neighbors were richer than them.D. They had few friends in the new environment.31. The author realized that their sacrifice was well worth it because _______.A. they had a beautiful home in the seaside villageB. they made a lot of money in the tourist seasonsC. their children could receive good educationD. their children could form a good value concept in the new environmentD.2014 Good Neighbor Dream Vacation PackageStay close to the magic and make your dreams come true.

Usually she can only finish two paintings a night, for either of which she charges 10 yuan. Tough as life is , the old lady has her pride and refuses to beg money from others.The old lady’s optimistic attitude towards life has left a deep impression on me. In addition, She would rather make a living by working hard than be a beggar.

Besides, when faced with difficulties, I will choose never to give up and make the greatest efforts.听力读稿Text 1W: What is that you are listening? It is too noisy.

AI got invited to go with some friends to a game at anotherschool. A senior will be driving us, and I think she’s a gooddriver, but it’s someone my parents don’t know. I want to tellmy parents where I’m going, but what if I ask and they say“no”? I’ll end up wishing I never mentioned it and just wentahead and did it anyway.If you want more privileges, it’s best to build a track record of honesty and trust. Letting a parent know where you’re going is always a good idea.You may worry that telling your parents puts you at risk of getting “no” for an answer. Butthere’s a good chance your parents might be OK with you going. If you go but don’t tell them, you risk losing something more important —your parents’ trust.Parents who find out their kids did something behind their backs may be less likely to give permission to do things in the future. When trust is broken like this, parents wonder if teens are trying to hide something — and what they imagine can be far worse than the reality.Before you talk to your parents about the game, think about which approach will help them feel most comfortable with giving you more freedom. Maybe they’d like to meet the person driving or talk to friends who have driven with her in the past. If your parents have questions or hesitate about letting you go, find out what their worries are and then do your best to answer them.21. From Paragraph 1 we know that the writer _________.A. appears nervousB. looks worriedC. feels confusedD. seems discouraged22. What is the best way to get parents’ permission according to the passage?A. To get more privileges from them.B. To risk gaining their permission.C. To keep off the track of reality.D. To be honest and win their trust.23. What does the writer really want to tell us?A. How to win over parents.B. How to deal with strict parents.C. Which effective approach to use.D. How to get freedom from parents.24. Who do you think the passage is intended for?A. Parents.B. Friends.C. Drivers.D. Teenagers.BWhat are you feelin g right now as you start to read this? Are you curious? Hope that you’ll learn something about yourself? Bored because this is something you have to do for school and you’re not really into it —or happy because it’s a school project you enjoy? Perhaps you’re attracted by something else, like feeling excited about your weekend plans or sad because you just went through a breakup.Emotions（情感）like these are part of human nature. They give us information about what we’re experiencing and help us know how to r eact.We sense our emotions from the time we’re babies. Young children react to their emotions with facial expressions or with actions like laughing or crying. They feel and show emotions, but they don’t yet have the ability to name the emotion or say why they feel that way.As we grow up, we become more skilled in understanding emotions. Instead of just reacting like little kids do, we can identify what we feel and put it into words. With time and practice, we get better at knowing what we are feeling and why. This skill is called emotional awareness.Emotional awareness helps us know what we need and want, or don’t want! It helps us build better relationships. That’s because being aware of our emotions can help us talk about feelings more clearly, avoid or settle conflicts better, and move past difficult feelings more easily.Some people are naturally more in touch with their emotions than others. The good news is that everyone can be more aware of their emotions. It just takes practice. But it’s worth the effort. Emotional awareness is the first step toward building emotional intelligence, a skill that can help people succeed in life.25. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A. Types of emotions.B. The topic to discuss.C. Part of human nature.D. Ways to react to things.26. How do young children react to emotions?A. With laughter and shouts.B. With signs and expressions.C. With gestures of different kinds.D. With facial expressions and actions.27. From the passage we know that emotional awareness actually _________.A. enables us to live in society more easilyB. lets people understand others betterC. brings about conflicts between peopleD. smooths away difficulties in our life28. Where is the passage probably taken from?A. A science fiction.B. An advertisement.C. A science magazine.D. A television show.CThough for many of us the year ahead may look pretty depressing, 2016 promises one greatbreakthrough —a major step toward ending Africa’s particular and backward form of the great Digital Divide.Poor connectivity has bedeviled much of the continent’s internet access but now a huge improvement is coming. It’s a new sub-sea cable, to be laid off Africa’s eastern coastline, enabling a reliable and affordable international connectivity service to both coastal and landlocked countries in Eastern, Central and Southern Africa.The project is being developed by Liquid Sea, an offshore branch of Liquid Telecom, which already runs a pan-African network based on land cable supported by satellite links for rural and remote areas. Altogether, with offices from South Africa and Botswana in the south to Kenya in the East, taking in Democratic Republic of Congo in the center, it makes up the continent’s largest single connecting network crossing multiple national borders.Africa has benefited in many ways from the digital revolution, but internet coverage still differs from place to place.And the unpleasant truth is that, despite some great advance in African development over the last decade and more, its effects are unequal and taken as a whole, less than 16 percent ofAfricans have access to the Internet, which compares that with 63 percent of Europeans and 79 percent of North Americans.It’s obvious what a disadvantage is placed upon Africans by such digital inequality. The economics of the entire process is skewed（歪的）by poor network performance in Africa, with the total bandwidth available to shuttle data back and forth between African countries and the rest of the world amounting to less than 1 terabit per second. That’s about one-seventieth of Europe’s international bandwidth capacity（容量）.Now Liquid Sea’s underwater cable stretching from eastern South Africa to the Middle East, with onward connections to Europe, aims to contribute much more in building Afr ica’s better connected digital future.29. What does “bedeviled” most probably mean in Paragraph 2?A. attractedB. troubledC. worsenedD. contributed30. What would the Internet be like in Africa in the future?A. Dependable and inexpensive .B. Accessible and comfortable.C. Central and controllable.D. Possible and comparable.31. What is implied in the passage?A. International bandwidth capacity makes no difference.B. Internet connections improve the equality in Africa.C. Poor internet access limits the economy of Africa.D. Africa is now far beyond developed countries.32. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Unsafe Internet access in AfricaB. Digital-gap narrowing in AfricaC. Bandwidth available in AfricaD. Great Digital Divide in AfricaDHere are some of the best TV shows in Britain, on Wednesday, February 17th, 2016.33. What kind of person is Mary Portas？A. A woman of big trouble.B. A woman of new fashion.C. A woman with great love.D. A woman with strong determination.34. The on-going drama Dickensian is pieced together by _________.A. Tony Jordan’s novel opinionB. Charles Dickens’s booksC. Inspect Bucket’s murder chargeD. Stephen Rea’s particular treat35. What can be concluded from “Three Days of Terror”?A. The survivors will no longer live in Paris.B. Cartoons are not to be drawn in the magazine.C. Islamist fanatics may commit more crimes.D. The witnesses helped catch the killers.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。

What does the underlined word compensation probably mean?A. SalaryB. JobC. Working conditionsD. FoodCMedia Selection for AdvertisementsAfter determining the target audience for a product or service, advertising agencies must select the appropriate media for the advertisement. We discuss here the major types of media used in advertising. We focus our attention on seven types of advertising: television, newspapers, radio, magazines, out-of-home. Internet, and direct mail.TelevisionTelevision is an attractive medium for advertising because it delivers mass audiences to advertisers. When you consider that nearly three out of four Americans have seen the game show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? you can understand the power of television to communicate with a large audience. When advertisers create a brand, for example, they want to impress consumers with the brand and its image. Television provides an ideal vehicle for this type of communication.But television is an expensive medium, and not all advertisers can afford to use it.Television's influence on advertising is fourfold. First, narrowcasting means that television channels are seen by an increasingly narrow segment of the audience. The Golf Channel, for instance.is watched by people who play golf. Home and Garden Television is seen by those interested in household improvement projects. Thus, audiences are smaller and more homogeneous(具有共同特点的) than they have been in the past. Second, there is an increase in the number of television channels available to viewers, and thus, advertisers. This has also resulted in an increase in the sheer number of advertisements to which audiences are exposed. Third, digital recording devices allow audience members more control over which commercials they watch. Fourth, control over programming is being passed from the networks to local cable operators and satellite programmers.Newspaper?After television, the medium attracting the next largest annual ad revenue is newspapers. The New York Times, which reaches a national audience, accounts for $1 billion in ad revenue annually, ii m increased its national circulation (发行量) by 40% and is now available for home delivery in ion ciues. Locally, newspapers are the largest advertising medium.Newspapers are a less expensive advertising medium than television and provide a way for advertisers to communicate a longer. more detailed message to their audience than they can through 48 hours,meaning newspapers are also a quick way of getting the massage out.Newspapers are ofen the most important form of news for a local community, and they develop a high degree of loyalty from local reader.RadioAdvertising on radio continues to grow Radio is often used in conjunction with outdoor bill-boards (广告牌) and ihe Internet to reach even more customers than television. Advertisers are likely to use radio because it is a less expensive medium than television, which means advertisers can afford to repeal their ads often. Internet companies are also turning 10 radio advertising. Radio provides a way for advertisers to communicate with audience members at all times of the day.Consumers listen to radio on their way to school or work, at work, on the way home, and in the evening hours.Two major changes—satellite and Internet radio—will force radio advertisers to adapt their methods. Both of these radio forms allow listeners to tune in stations that are more distant than the local stations they could receive in the past. As a result, radio will increasingly attract target audiences who live many miles apart.MagazinesNewsweeklies, women’s titles, and business magazines have all seen increases in advertising because they attract the high-end market, magazines are popular with advertisers because of the narrow market that they deliver. A broadcast medium such as network television attracts all types of audience members, but magazine audiences are more homogeneous, if you read sportsillustrated, for example, you h ave much in common with the magazine’s other readers. Advertisers see magazines as an efficient way of reaching target audience members.Advertiser using the print media-magazines and newspapers-will need to adapt to two main changes. First, the internet will bring larger audiences to local newspapers, these second. Advertisers will have to understand how to use an increasing number of magazines for their target audiences. Although some magazines will maintain national audiences, a large number of magazines will entertain narrower audiences.Out-of-home advertisingOut-of-home advertising. Also called place-based advertising, has become an increasingly effective way of reaching consumers, who are more active than ever before. Many consumers today do not sit at home and watch television. Using billboards, newsstands, and bus shelters for advertising is an effective way of reaching these on-the-go consumers. More consumers travel longer distances to and from work, which also makes out-of-home advertising effective, technology has changed the nature of the billboard business, making it a more effective medium than in the past.Using digital printing, billboard companies can print a billboard in 2 hours, compared with 6 days previously. This allows advertisers more variety in the types of messages they create because they.Can change their messages more quickly.InternetAs consumers become more comfortable with online shopping, advertisers will seek to reach this market As consumers get more of their news and information from the Internet, the ability of television and radio to get the word out to consumers will decrease. The challenge to Internet advertisers Is to create ads that audience members remember.Internet advertising will play a more prominent role in organizations' advertising in the near ftuture. Internet audiences tend to be quite homogeneous, but small. Advertisers will have to adjust their methods to reach these audiences and will have to adapt their persuasive strategies to the online medium as well.Direct mailA final advertising medium is direct mail, which uses mailings to consumers to communicate a client's message Direct mail includes newsletters. postcards and special promotions.

They are the place of the scientific discoveries that move economies forward, and the primary means of educating the talent required to obtain and maintain competitive advantage. But at the same time, the opening of national borders to the flow of goods, services, information and especially people has made universities a powerful force for global integration, mutual understanding and geopolitical stability.In response to the same forces that have driven the world economy, universities have become more self-consciously global: seeking students from around the world who represent the entire range of cultures and values, sending their own students abroad to prepare them for global careers, offering courses of study that address the challenges of an interconnected world and collaborative (合作的) research programs to advance science for the benefit of all humanity.Of the forces shaping higher education none is more sweeping than the movement across borders.Over the past three decades the number of students leaving home each year to study abroad has grown at an annual rate of 3.9 percent, from 800 000 in 1975 to 2.5 million in 2004. Most travel from one developed nation to another, but the flow from developing to developed countries is growing rapidly. The reverse flow, from developed to developing countries, is on the rise, too.Today foreign students earn 30 percent of the doctoral degrees awarded in the United States and 38 percent of those in the United Kingdom. And the number crossing borders for undergraduate study is growing as well, to 8 percent of the undergraduates at America's best institutions and 10 percent of all undergraduates in the UK. In the United States, 20 percent of the newly hired professors in science and engineering are foreign-born, and in China many newly hired faculty members at the top research universities received their graduate education abroad.Universities are also encouraging students to spend some of their undergraduate years in another country. In Europe, more than 140 000 students participate in the Erasmus program each year, taking courses for credit in one of 2 200 participating institutions across the continent. And in the United States, institutions are helping place students in summer internships (实习) abroad to prepare them for global careers. Yale and Harvard have led the way, offering every undergraduate at least one international study or internship opportunity—and providing the financial resources to make it possible.Globalization is also reshaping the way research is done. One new trend involves sourcing portions of a research program to another country. Yale professor and Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator Tian Xu directs a research centre focused on the genetics of human disease atShanghai's Fudan University, in collaboration with faculty colleagues from both schools. The Shanghai centre has 95 employees and graduate students working in a 4 300-square-meter laboratory facility. Yale faculty, postdoctors and graduate students visit regularly and attend videoconference seminars with scientists from both campuses. The arrangement benefits both countries; Xu's Yale lab is more productive, thanks to the lower costs of conducting research in China, and Chinese graduate students, postdoctors and faculty get on-the-job training from a world-class scientist and his US team.As a result of its strength in science, the United States has consistently led the world in the commercialization of major new technologies, from the mainframe computer and the integrated circuit of the 1960s to the Internet infrastructure(基础设施) and applications software of the 1990s. The link between university-based science and industrial application is often indirect but sometimes highly visible: Silicon Valley was intentionally created by Stanford University, and Route 128 outside Boston has long housed companies spun off from MIT and Harvard. Around the world, governments have encouraged copying of this model, perhaps most successfully in Cambridge, England, where Microsoft and scores of other leading software and biotechnology companies have set up shop around the university.For all its success, the United States remains deeply hesitant about sustaining the research-university model. Most politicians recognize the link between investment in science and national economic strength, but support for research funding has been unsteady. The budget of the National Institutes of Health doubled between 1998 and 2003, but has risen more slowly than inflation since then. Support for the physical sciences and engineering barely kept pace with inflation during that same period. The attempt to make up lost ground is welcome, but the nation would be better served by steady, predictable increases in science funding at the rate of long-term GDP growth, which is on the order of inflation plus 3 percent per year.American politicians have great difficulty recognizing that admitting more foreign students can greatly promote the national interest by increasing international understanding. Adjusted for inflation, public funding for international exchanges and foreign-language study is well below the levels of 40 years ago. In the wake of September 11, changes in the visa process caused a dramatic decline in the number of foreign students seeking admission to US universities, and a corresponding surge in enrollments in Australia, Singapore and the UK. Objections from American university and business leaders led to improvements in the process and a reversal of the decline, but the United States is still seen by many as unwelcoming to international students.Most Americans recognize that universities contribute to the nation's well-being through their scientific research, but many fear that foreign students threaten American competitiveness by taking their knowledge and skills back home. They fail to grasp that welcoming foreign students to the United States has two important positive effects: first, the very best of them stay in the States and—like immigrants throughout history—strengthen the nation; and second, foreign students who study in the United States become ambassadors for many of its most cherished (珍视) values when they return home. Or at least they understand them better. In America as elsewhere, few instruments of foreign policy are as effective in promoting peace and stability as welcoming international university students.32. In the United States, how many of the newly hired professors in science and engineering are foreign-born?A. 10%.B. 20%.C. 30%.D. 38%.33. How do Yale and Harvard prepare their undergraduates for global careers?A. They organize a series of seminars on world economy.B. They offer them various courses in international politics.C. They arrange for them to participate in the Erasmus program.D. They give them chances for international study or internship.34. An example illustrating the general trend of universities' globalization is__________.A. Yale's collaboration with Fudan University on genetic researchB. Yale's helping Chinese universities to launch research projectsC. Yale's student exchange program with European institutionsD. Yale's establishing branch campuses throughout the world35. What do we learn about Silicon Valley from the passage?A. It houses many companies spun off from MIT and Harvard.B. It is known to be the birthplace of Microsoft Company.C. It was intentionally created by Stanford University.D. It is where the Internet infrastructure was built up.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。

ABefore leaving work, Steve Lee likes to use his cell phone to turn on his heat and air conditioner system at home.So by the time he gets through traffic into his front door, the temperature inside is perfect.You may wonder what a socalled smart home can do inside.Lee works for a company called Smart , testing and living with many of his company's home automation gadgets(自动化小配件), like this multifunction touch screen that controls devices around the house and even connects to the Internet traffic cameras.“I have cameras, and they follow all the way down the freeway to work, ”said Lee with pride, “What's going on at home when you are away? No problem, install some wireless cameras and controllers and from any computer in the world with an Internet connection, you can watch your house.”“You can check on the house, and I ca n look at the temperature. Believe it or not, if I want to turn on lights ahead of time, I can, ”added Lee.We sat in Steve's California kitchen and with the right password,_turned on the kitchen counter lights at his boss' house in Wisconsin.Steve did have permission to log on(登录).“If you do know the password and you want to play a trick on your wife, you could turn lights on and off remotely.”This new technology, which can automatically turn on water sprinklers when humidity is low, or turn off a pool pump when it is not in use, is no longer expensive.Several hundred dollars for a basic system is enough and it is not hard to install.Sure the convenience is nice but many people who like the security advantages like making sure kids are safe with the help of camera monitors and bedside alerts.“I can notice that maybe one of my children wakes up in the middle of the night once the light switch is turned on.”What a smart home can't do is get you a snack and you have to leave the couch for that.1.What does the underlined word “password” in Paragraph 5 mean?A.Security code.B.Crossword.C.Passport.D.Touch screen.解析：词义猜测题。

2016年高考英语全国模拟卷

高考英语模拟题第I卷第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分60分）第一节（共15小题;每小题3分，满分45分）ATo avoid becoming the lead story on the evening news, be prepared. Before you head out on a hike, check the weather, take plenty of water, and make sure someone knows where you’ll be and when yo u’ll be back. Bring clothes to keep you warm when wet. Avoid cotton, which is easy to take in moisture(潮气).“To avoid getting lost, check often to make sure you’re still on the trail(路线),” says John Dill, a search-and-rescue worker at Yosemite National Park in California. “The minute you think you might not be on the trail, stop.” If you’re not alone, focusing on the needs of others can help you get rid of your own fears. Other keys to survival: staying observant and remembering to rest.The surest way to get out alive is to take basic precautions(预防措施), such as taking a set of survival equipment. It includes waterproof matches for starting a fire, a folding knife for cutting branches, and a plastic tarp(防水布) for making shelter.Generally, people who try to find their own way out get along worse than those who stay, says Richard N. Bradley, MD, of the American Red Cross. Find shelter before dark, and try to keep dry. Stay visible so that anyone searching can see you. In a wide-open area, make a signal with colorful tools, make a big X out of rocks, or dig a long shallow hole.You can go several days without eating, so in most cases, you’d better not search for food, since there are lots of poisonous plants in the wild, says Dr Bradley. You cannot survive without water, so if you run out of water, it’s usually better to drink from a stream with suspect water than to go without.21. By saying “becoming the lead story on the evening news” in Para. 1, the author really means ______.A. you will be interviewed by the journalistB. you will become famous for your survival in a forestC. the news that you are lost will spread around quicklyD. your experience in the wild will be reported in the evening news22. According to the writer, how can you avoid getting lost when you are alone?A. Make sure you don’t leave the trail.B. Remember not to stop on the trail.C. Try to look for others’ help.D. Overcome the fear of getting lost.23. According to the passage, you may get into trouble if you ______.A. try to find food to fill your stomach in the wildB. stay in the shelter before darkC. remain where you get lost and wait for helpD. drink water from the stream24. Why does the author suggest digging a long shallow hole in a wide-open area when you get lost?A. To find some water to drink.B. To store some food you’ve brought along.C. To attract the rescuer’s attention.D. To use it as a shelter.BMany New Zealand children are being studied for sleep disorders(紊乱) after overloading on technology before bedtime. Specialists say computers and televisions disturb sleep patterns and cause learning, concentration and growth problems.Dr Alex Bartle, director of the Sleep Well Clinic, said that different sorts of technology were keeping children awake. Computer games and social networking sites such as Bebo and Facebook were worse than TV for exciting young minds because they were more interactive(互动的). They should be switched off at least an hour before bedtime. “To fal l asleep, you need to have a certain amount of calmness in the brain,” said Bartle. “being excited doesn’t help those brainwaves settle.”Professor Philippe Gander, director of Massey University’s Sleep / Wake Research Centre, said poor sleep had been linked to learning, behavioral and growth problems.Bartle said parents should make sure that children were well-rested and not kept awake by the technology surrounding them. “They need to encourage kids to get out during the day. Watching TV or playing on computers as soon as they get home isn’t good from a sleep point of view. Parents need to be strong enough to remove TVs or computers.”In Britain, National Health Service data show almost 3,000 under-11s were referred to specialists for problems such as sleeplessness and sleep-walking(梦游) in 2007, up 26 percent from 2002.While there are no figures in New Zealand, experts have no doubt that the number of children in need of help is on the increase. “We have the same sorts of technology, the same l ifestyles,” said Bartle.The Child Health Research Foundation in New Zealand has funded(资助) studies on sleep problems and is waiting for the results.25. What does “technology”mainly refer to according to the passage?A. pianos and guitarsB. televisions and computersC. learning machinesD.MP3s and MP4s26. According to Dr Alex Bartle’s opinion, we can learn that ______.A. Children should not watch TV or play online games in the eveningB. Watching TV does more harm to children than playing computer gamesC. Some parents fail to set a limit on the time their children spend on technologyD. About 3,000 New Zealand under-11s have sleep problems in 200727. Experts are sure that the number of New Zealand children with sleep problems is increasing because _____.A. New Zealand children play more online games than British childrenB. They have exact data from National Health ServiceC. New Zealand children are in the same situation as the British childrenD. They have exact data provided by hospitals28. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Children like computer games.B. Technology disturbs children’s sleep.C. The ways of dealing with sleep disorders.D. New Zealand parents should prevent children from watching TV.CTo “sacrifice” means to give up something in exchange for something better. My husband and I decided to make a sacrifice and exchange city life and move to a seaside village with our children aged 9 and 3 years. We had a beautiful home in the city and plenty of money but little real safety because crime was on the increase every day. We never knew if we would all make it safely home at night. I hoped my children would be brought up in a peaceful and friendly environment.We were very happy in our new town, but life was very difficult economically. Income was based on the tourist seasons and jobs were few. Although many of the long- standing residents(居民) were well off in the town, it was a very competitive environment for newcomers. We had to adapt to the difficult new life over the past four years.Reading the newspapers from the big cities made us better believe that we had made the right choice. But it was not always easy to explain to the children why they could no longer have what they used to have.However, our little daughter proved to me she had the ability to think about problems in a reasonable way. The son of a visiting friend preferred riding in the back of our old little truck to his father’s big car.Our little daughter called me and said, “Mom, please help m e to explain to James that he is wrong. He says that ‘Today, if you don’t have money you are nothing.’ I know that is not true. If you do have money you share it with your friends and if you don’t have money and they do, they share it with you. That is wha t makes us all rich.” It made me realize that the sacrifice was well worth it.29. Why did the family move away from the city?A. They were tired of the city life.B. The city was not safe enough.C. Pollution in the city was serious.D. Life in the city was expensive.30. What was the worst to the author’s family in their new town?A. They couldn’t get used to the weather.B. It was hard for them to get a steady and satisfying income.C. Their neighbors were richer than them.D. They had few friends in the new environment.31.

Manners nowadays in big cities like London are particularly non-existent. It’s 21 for a big, strong schoolboy to push an elderly woman aside for the last 22 seat on the bus, much less stand up and offer his seat to her, as he ought to. In fact, it is a 23 to note that if a man does offer his seat to an older woman, it is nearly always a man of the older 24 .This question of 25 seats in public transport is much argued by young men, who say that, since women have claimed 26 , they no longer deserve to be treated 27 and that those who go out to work should take their turn in the rat race like anyone else. Women have never claimed to be 28 as strong as men. Even if it’s not 29 that young men should stand up for older women, however, the fact remains that good manners should be shown to the old, the 30 and the burdened. Are we really so lost to all ideals of 31 that we can sit there calmly reading the paper or a book, saying to ourselves “First come, first served”, while a gray-haired woman, or a mother with a young child stands? 32 this is too often seen.Older people, tired and easily 33 from a day’s work, aren’t angels, either. Many a sudden argument or a fierce quarrel 34 as the tired people push and pull each other to get on buses or tubes.If cities are to remain pleasant places to 35 in at all, however, it seems necessary, not only that communication in 36 should be improved, but also that communication between human beings should be kept smooth and 37 . Shop assistants won’t bother to 38 , taxi drivers shout at each other as they drive dangerously round corners, bus conductors pull the bell 39 their desperate passengers have had time to get on or off the bus, and so on. It seems to us that it’s up to the young and strong to do their small 40 to stop such “worsening”.21. A. something B. nothing C. anything D. everything22. A. good B. comfortable C. ideal D. remaining23. A. pity B. pleasure C. surprise D. sight24. A. kind B. race C. generation D. tradition25. A. taking up B. handing over C. putting away D. giving up26.
