According to a recent survey by the Symantec Corporation, which makes many kinds of security software for home and business computers, there’s a “significant digital(数字的)divide between parents and their kids.”Parents of children under the age of 18 were asked to estimate(估计)how much time their kids spent online each week. The parents said about three hours a week on average. The kids – ages 8 to 17 –who took the survey said they’re spending an average of seven hours online each week.“I really think that’s due to the time they spend on their mobile phones and computers, when their parents don’t even know they’re online,” says Symantec’s Bill Rosenkrantz. "Remember, cell phones, PDAs and video game m achines all make it possible to access the Internet. You don’t have to sit in front of a computer screen."And what are the kids doing on the Web? “They're doing things like downloading music, they're going to social networking sites, they're actually shopping online when parents don't think they're doing those kinds of activities,” says Rosenkrantz. “They're also, we think, doing some things with research papers and other kinds of activities with homework maybe where they're getting content online and they really shouldn't be.” Nearly a quarter of the kids (23 percent) admit to doing things their parents would not approve.So how does a modern parent deal with this type of situation? “The first thing we strongly recommend is that parents spend time wi th their children online,” Rosenkrantz says. “Sit down with them and understand what they're doing. Secondly, have a dialog about it. Have a dialog about what's an acceptable activity, what'san unacceptable activity, and set some ground rules -- time online, things you can and can't do. Really have those conversations. That's the most important.” There are a lot of bad people on the Internet. That’s why it’s so important for parents to know what their kids are doing online.4. The figures in the second paragraph are used to show _______.A. children always spend too much time onlineB. time spent online changes with children's agesC. parents don't exactly know kids' online activitiesD. children spend more time online than their parents5. We can learn from the passage that _______.A. special home computers are being made by SymantecB. kids talk less with their parents due to computersC. all the kids surveyed don't obeyed their parents' rulesD. parents are too busy to pay attention to their kids6. In Rosenkrantz's opinion, the key to the situation is that parents should _______.A. shorten their kids' time spent onlineB. have a talk with their kidsC. use security software in computersD. know their kids' online activities7. What's the purpose of the passage?A. To advertise a new security software.B. To give reasons for kid's Internet addiction.C. To warn children of the danger online.D. To give a short introduction to a survey.CThe health benefits of staying active are already well-known. It can help you manage weight, keep blood sugar levels down and reduce risk factors for heart disease.Now, a new study suggests that regularly playing sports, especially badminton or tennis, is not only healthy but also reduces your risk of death, at any age, by approximately 50%. This is a big scale population study to explore the health benefits of sports in terms of death rate. The studyevaluated responses from 80, 306 adults aged 30 and above in England and Scotland, who were surveyed about their health, lifestyle and exercise patterns.After adjusting factors such as age, sex, weight, smoking habits, alcohol use, education and other forms of exercise besides the named sports, the researchers compared the risk of death among people who took part in a sport to those who didn’t. The percentage of reduced risk of death was found to be: 47% for racket(球拍)sports, 28% for swimming and 15% for cycling.In addition to this, the study didn’t find any significant reduction in the risk for sports like running and football. The findings also exposed that over 44% of the participants met the guidelines for the recommended exercise levels to stay fit and healthy, which amounts to 150 minutes of moderate(适度的) physical activity in a week.Does this mean you stop running or playing football and switch to tennis instead? Every kind of sport and physical activity has different physical, social and mental benefits attached to it. The apparent lack of benefits of running and football could result from several variables (变量) that were not taken into account.Being active helps you feel happier and live longer. So, the most important step is to take part in any kind of sport that you are likely to enjoy and follow in the long term.8. How is the study conducted?A. By doing comparative experiments.B. By analyzing previous data.C. By evaluating survey information.D. By tracking participants for a long time.9. What does the underlined part “the named sports’” refer to?A. Water sports.B. Racket sports.C. Individual sports.D. Traditional sports.10. What can we infer from Paragraph 5?A. Few people will play football.B. Tennis will become more popular.C. The result of this study is wrong.D. The study could be further improved.11. What does the author advise people to do?A. Stick to any sport that you like.B. Play badminton and tennis only.C. Stop running and playing football.D. Do any sport according to guidelines.DAt Mrs. Jennings’ handsome house, in London.While waiting for dinner, Marianne Dashwood wrote a letter very quickly. Elinor Dashwood noticed a large “W” in the address. Marianne rang the bell to have someone post it immediately.After dinner, there was a loud knock at the door. Marianne cried, “Oh, it’s Willoughby!” and seemed to throw herself into his arms when Colonel Brandon came in. She was so surprised that she immediately left the room.Elinor made the tea for Colonel Brandon. He did not stay long.The next morning, upon arriving at home after shopping, Marianne flew upstairs.“No letter has been left here for me since we went out. How strange!” she said, in a low and disappointed voice.About a week later, they saw Mr. Willoughby’s card on the table when they came in from morning’s drive. He had been there while the ladies were out.“He will call again tomorrow,” said Elinor.Marianne decided to stay behind the next morning, when the others went out. One look at her sister when they returned was enough to tell Elinor that Willoughby had not called.Colonel Brandon came again to tea and had short private conversation with Elinor.“Your sister’s engagement to Mr. Willoughby is very well known.”“It cannot be well known,” returned Elinor, “for her own family does not know it.”“I am sorry but I did not realize it was a secret. I came to ask, is everything decided? Is it possible to? Excuse me, Miss Dasnwood. I believe I have been wrong in saying so much.”From these words Elinor was sure of something, yet she knew he could never be successful with her.Over the next three or four days, Willoughby neither came nor wrote.One evening at a party, Marianne suddenly saw Willoughby standing in deep conversation with a young woman, whose name was Grey, a rich lady.“He is there! Oh! Why does he not look at me? Why can’t I speak to him?”“Marianne,” said Elinor, “perhaps he hasn’t seen you yet.”At last he came to them.“Willoughby, what’s wrong? Did you not get my letters? Won’t you look at me?”After a moment’s pause, he spoke. “I came by last Tuesday but unfortunately did not see you. My card was not lost, I hope.”“Have you not received my notes?” cried Marianne. “Tell me, Willoughby; tell me, what’s the matter?”Quiet and embarrassed, he said nothing more and turned quickly away to Miss Grey. Marianne, turning white and unable to stand, fell into her chair.12.Before the party, Marianne badly desired .A.to write a letter to Willoughby B.to receive Willoughby's cardC.to be visited by Willoughby D.to be invited by Willoughby13.The underlined word “something” in Para.14 refers to_______.A.Marianne’s love for Brandon B.Brandon’s love for Marrianne C.Willoughby’s love for Marianne D.the Dashwoods’ love for money 14.What do you know about Willoughby?A.He didn’t call Marianne until the party to give her a surprise.B.He was too shy to declare in public his deep love for Marianne.C.He was already on the side of another woman with more money.D.He felt disappointed that Brandon was between him and Marianne.15.How do you find Marianne in the story?A.More selfish than kind.B.More strong than weak.C.More calm than impatient.D.More sensitive than sensible.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AEve was waiting in the corridor outside her class. She was feeling sick. She had two exams that day and physics was first. She really hated physics. It was her worst subject.

The purpose of this passage is to _______.A. make an advertisement for the museum B. encourage adults to bring their children thereC. show what is on display in the museum D. attract people to explore the universeCFashion refers to the styles of dress that are currently popular. Fashion goes beyond just clothes, though. It’s important for some people to wear only the latest fashions and styles. For others, though, keeping up with trends (潮流) isn’t that important. The one thing that stays the same with fashion is this: it always changes!In the 1960s and 1970s, hippies made bell-bottomed blue jeans popular. In the 1980s, Michael Jackson made parachute pants all the fashion. Now try to find these items in today’s clothing stores!Why do fashions change? The answer is probably as12345678910下一页simple as the fact that people change. Over time, the new replaces the old. People are influenced greatly by popular culture, including athletes, musicians, movie stars, as well as popular films, televisions shows, books and music. We are also influenced by the fashion industry’s advertising.The stars of popular culture are always searching for a new angle to maintain (保持)their popularity. Often these new angles come in the form of new clothing or hairstyles. When people see these new styles, they often want to imita tetheir favorite stars. To do so, they seek out the latest fashions to make themselves look like the people they want to imitate. In this way, fashions evolve and change over time.For years, clothes have been used to separate people into groups. Even today, brand-name clothing that is more expensivethan other types of clothing can be used by some people to distinguish themselves from others. Unfortunately, this can often have the effect of distancing certain groups from others.Don’t forget that it’s always OK to develop your own sense of style that is unique and separate from what the fashion world determines! Stay true to yourself and let your personality ―not your clothes ― speak for who you are.28. The examples of be ll-bottomedblue jeans and parachute pants in Paragraph 3 are used to show that _______.A. people often have different dressing stylesB. trends of fashion are changingall the timeC. people are always affected greatly by the starsD. hippies and Michael Jackson are good designers29. Fashion change mainly because _______.A. new films and shows replace the old B. movie stars are changing over timeC. popular culture influences people D. advertisements change rapidly30. We can learn from the text that _______.A. clothes may separate and distance peopleB. people like imitating others’ dressing styleC. the author has clearly goneout of fashionD. fashion is all about clothes people wear31. In the last paragraph, t12345678910下一页he author mainly wants to stress _______.A. the advantages of staying unique and separateB. the bad effects of following fashions and stylesC. the good benefits of popular styles to peopleD. the importance of having one’s own personalityDDarek Fidyka, a 38-year-old Bulgarian, had been paralyzed (瘫痪的) from the chest down for four years after a knife attack. Scientists from Britain and Poland took c ells from his nose, transplanted (移植) them into his back and re-grew his spinal cord (脊髓). Now he can walk and even drive a car. The doctors were delighted but said it was the first step in a long journey.The breakthrough came after 40 years of research by Professor Geoff Raisman, who found that cells had the possibility to repair damage to nasal (鼻腔的) nerves, the only part of the nervous system that constantly re-grows. “The idea was to take something from an area where the nervous system can repair itself and put it into an area that doesn’t repair itself,” Professor Raisman said.Polish doctors injected (注射) the nasal cells into Mr Fidyka’s spinal cord above the injury and used some nerves from his ankle to form a bridge across the damaged tissue. The nasal cells appear to have caused the spinal nerves to repair themselves.Professor Raisman achieved this with ratsin the late 1990’s, but this is his greatest success. “I think the moment of discovery for me was Christmas in 1997 when I first saw a rat, which couldn’t control its hand, put its hand out to me. That was an exciting moment, because I realized then that my belief that the nervous system could be repaired was true.”Doctors chose the easiest case for their first attempt―it might not work for others. But there is a real sense of hope that an idea once thought impossible has been realized.David Nicholls, who helped provide money for the breakthrough, said information about the breakthrough would be made available to researchers across the globe.“What you’ve got to understand is that for three m12345678910下一页illion paralyzed people in the world today, the world looks a totallybr ighter place than it did yesterday,” he said.32. Why did Professor Geoff Raisman choose cells from the nose?A. The nervous system in the nose canrepair itself.B. Cells from the nose can be easily transplanted.C. The nervous system in the nose has more cells.D. Cells in the nose are able to re-produce rapidly.33. How did the operation work for Darek Fidyka?A. The nervous systemin the spinal nerves can repair itself.B. The nerves from his ankle cured the patient of the injury.C. The nasal cells re-produced and spread over very quickly.D. The nasal cells helped the spinal nerves to repair themselves.34. What made Professor Geoff Raisman begin to believe the nervous system can be repaired?A. His former study with other people. B. His operation on aparalyzed patient.C. His sudden thought about Christmas. D. His unusual experience with a sick rat.35. David Nicholls’ words suggest that _______.A. the world will become a better and brighter placeB. paralyzed people of today have the hope of recoveryC. the report of the breakthrough will be published soonD. researchers across the world will carry out the operation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。

A lady from our new church was dying of cancer, and I had volunteered to help her with the house-work.“Annie has a tumor肿瘤 in her head, which has disfigured损毁…的外形her face,” I warned.I struggled for the words to describe Annie’s appearance to my son and daughter. Then I remembered a movie I’d seen with my son. I wanted him to understand that disabled people are likeanyone else—their feelings can be hurt, too.“David, rem ember the movie Mask about the boy with the facial deformity畸形?”“Yes, Mom.

It sticks out from under her tongue and makes it hard for her to talk. You’ll see it as soon as you meet her, but there’s nothingto be afraid of. Remember, don’t stare.” Diane nodded. I knew she was trying to picture a tumor in her mind.We entered the living room, where Annie was sitting in her chair. At the sight of my children, Annie’s face brightened. “Oh, I’m so glad you came to visit,” she said toughly.David walked across the room to Annie’s chair, put his arms around her shoulders and pressed his cheek to her face. Smiling, he looked into her eyes and said, “I’m happy to meet you.” Justwhen I didn’t think I c ould be more proud, Diane copied her big brother and gave Annie the precious, accepting hug of a child. My throat tightened with emotion as I saw Annie’s eyes well upwith grateful tears.24. From the mother’s description, we know that________ .A. Annie was optimisticB. Annie liked childrenC.

Deforestation speeds up climate change, which is worsening droughts in the Horn of Africa, including Kenya, where rains have failed for five seasons in a row. So the government has set aside more than $ 80 million this year, managing to augment tree coverage to more than 10%.“It is a moment for Kenyans to stand together in the defense of our environment,” said Soipan Tuya, the Environment Minister. He referred to the day as “a ‘hummingbird(s)’ contribution day”. Hummingbirds are small birds, but they play an important part in the environment by pollinating(授粉)flowers.He added, “H aving been planting trees for most of my life, I thought I was doing ratherwell, but the government’s plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032 was ‘an unprecedented(史无前例的)show of promise by the government towards our climate action duties.’”8.What is the purpose of the public holiday?A.To increase economic income.

D.It is time to protect hummingbirds. 11.What is the best title for the text?A.Kenya Is Taking Action to Protect WildlifeB.Kenya Is in Face of Environmental ProblemsC.Kenya Improves Relationships with Their NeighborsD.Kenya Surprises the Public with a Holiday to Plant TreesDAre you a fan of birds? If so, you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs. But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that?A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the home or outdoors, can boost people’s moods.Researchers at King’s College London used a smartphone app built by the school’s Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeing or hearing a bird. A total of 1,292 people living in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States participated in the study which was conducted between April 2018 and October 2021.The app asked participants three times a day whether they could see or hear a bird followed by a series of questions on their mental well-being. Participants were also asked questions about whether they could see trees, plants or hear any water to see if people were experiencing better mental well-being due to being in or seeing nature, and not just because of exposure to birds.According to the study, the mental well-being of study participants with and without depression was significantly improved after seeing a bird or hearing birdsong compared to not seeing or hearing a bird.There is a growing number of studies that link spending time outdoors (either in green leafy places or next to bodies of water) to improved mental health. But there are few studies that look at how different aspects of nature can play into humans’ me ntal well-being.And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health, the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time, according to Ryan Hammoud, lead author of the study.“They kind of examine nature as a single object when nature includes many different characteristics and features like trees, plants, water, birds,” said Hammoud, “We choose to focus on bird life to try and understand which specific characteristics of nature benefit mental well-being.”12.What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A.To introduce a phenomenon. B.To bring in the topic.C.To ask an interesting question. D.To provide background information. 13.How did the researchers conduct the study?A.By analyzing previous studies. B.By observing the behavior of birds.C.By gathering feelings of participants. D.By studying people’s effect on birds. 14.What does Hammoud think of the new study?A.Pioneering. B.Interesting. C.Conventional. D.Practical. 15.What is the main idea of the text?A.Bird watching has become a popular hobby.B.Exposure to birds can improve mental well-being.C.Nature is the best medicine for mental health issues.D.Spending time outdoors can impact mental health positively.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Now then, we agreed on thirty dollars a m onth... ”“Forty. ”“No, thirty. I made a note of it. I always pay our governess thirty.Well, um, you’ve been here two months, so...”“Two months and five days.”“Exactly two months. I made a special note of it. That means you havesixty dollars coming to you. Take off nine Sundays... you know you didn ’t work with Tom on Sundays, you only took walks. And three holidays...”Julia was biting her finger nail nervously, her face red, but--- not aword.“Three holidays, therefore take off twelve dollars. Four days Tomwassick and there were no lessons, as you were occupied only with Dick. Three daysyou had a toothache and my wife gave you permission not to work after lunch. Twelve and seven - nineteen. Take nineteen off ... that leaves.hmm.... forty one dollars. Correct ”Julia ’ s left eye reddened with tears welling up. Her chin trembled;she coughed nervously and blew her nose, but --- still not a word.“Around New Year’ s Day you broke a teacup and a saucer; take off two dollars. The cup cost more, it was a treasure of the family, but---forget(大意) , Tom it. When didn ’t I take a loss! Then, due to your neglect climbeda tree and tore his jacket; take away ten. Also due to yourcarelessness the maid stole Dick ’s shoes. You ought to watch everything! You get paid for it. So, that means five more dollars off. The tenth ofJanuary I gave ten dollars. ”“You didn ’ t.” sobbed Julia.“But I made a note of it. ”“Well... if you say so. ”“Take twenty seven from forty one -that leaves fourteen.”Both her eyes were filled with tears. Beads of sweat stood on the thin pretty little nose. Poor girl!“Only once was I given any money,” she whispered, her voice trembling,“ and that was by your wife. Three dollars, nothing more.”“Really You see now, and I didn ’t know that! Take three from fourteen.. leaves eleven. Here’ s your money, my dear. Three, three, three, one and one. Here it is !”I handed her eleven dollars. She took them and pocketed them.“Merci (法语 : 感谢) , ”she whispered.I jumped to my feet and started pacing the room. I was overcome with anger.“For what, this‘merci’” I asked.“For the money. ”“But you know I ’ve cheated you - robbed you ! I have actually stolen from you ! Why this‘merci’”“In my other places they didn’ t give me anything at all.”“They didn ’t give you anything No wonder! I played a little joke on you, a cruel lesson, just to teach you... I m going to give you all theeighty dollars! Here they are in the envelope all ready for you...

It ’s a ring tone that manyAccording to a recent report from the NewYork Times,in some Manhattan schools , students have begun using the technology. Cellphone use isusually forbidden in class. But using the high-pitched(频次)ring tone ,students can successfully exchange phone messages without being found by their teachers.The technology relies on the fact that most adults gradually lose the ability to hear high-pitched sounds, It was developed in Britain but has recently spread to America by the Internet.However ,the technology was originally aimed at annoying teenagers,not the other way around.Called the Mosquito,it was marketed last year by a Welsh security company. It is an ear-splitting17-kilohertz buzzer (蜂鸣器) designed to help shopkeepers get rid of young people hanging around in front oftheir stores.

So he invented a very simple cameras. He putit in a window of his house and took a picture of his yard. That was the first photograph.The next important date in the history of photography was 1837. That year, Daguerre, another French, took a picture of his studio. He used anew kind of camera and a different process. In his pictures, you couldsee everything very clearly, even the smallest details. This kind ofphotograph was called a daguerreotype.Soon, other people began to use Daguerre ’s process.Travelers brought back daguerreotypes from all around the world.People photographed famous buildings, cities and mountains.In about 1840, the process was improved. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. The process was not simple. The photographers had to carry lots of films and processing equipment. Butthis did not stop the photographers, especially in the United States. After1840s daguerreotype artists were popular in most cities.Mathew Brady was a well - known American photographer. He took many pictures of famous people. The pictures were unusual because they werevery life - like and full of personality.Brady was also the first person to take pictures of war. His 1862 Civil War pictures showed dead soldiers and ruined cities. They made the warseem more real and more terrible.In the 1880s, new inventions began to change photography---Photographers could buy films ready-made in rolls (卷) . So they did not have to make the film themselves. Also, they did not have to process the film immediately. They could bring it back to their studios and develop it later meaning that they did not have to carry lots ofequipment. And finally, the invention of the small handheld cameramade photography less expensive.With the small camera, anyone could be a photographer. People beganto use cameras just for fun. They took pictures of their families,friendsand favorite places. They called these pictures“ snapshot” .Photographs became very popular in newspapers in the 1890s. Soon magazines and books also used documentary photographs. These pictures showed true events and people. They were much more real than drawing.Photography also turned into a form of art by the end of the 19thcentury. Some photographs were not just copies of the real world.They showed ideas and feelings, like other art forms.72.The passage is mainly about ________.A. the invention of camerasB. a kind of new art - photographyC. the development of photographyD. the important dates in the history of photography73.The first pictures of a war were taken by________.A. a French photographer in the 1840sB. an American photographer in the 1860sC. a German reporter in the 1880sD. a French artist in the 1890s74.Photography can also be an art form because artists can ________.A. take anything they likeB. keep a record of real lifeC. take photos of the famousD. show ideas and feeling in pictures75.According to the passage, which of the followings shows the correctordera.Photographs became popular in newspapers.b.Photographers carried processing equipment while taking pictures.c.The invention of small handheld cameras made photography easier.d.Daguerre invented a kind of photograph called daguerreotype.e.Brady took pictures of famous people.A. e, a, d, b, cB. d, b, e, c, aC. b, e, c, a, dD. d, c, e, a, b第二卷(共35 分)第一节:短文改错(共10 小题,满分10 分)orange tree on his garden .

AMy Favourite BooksJo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series(系列) of lifestyle books. Here she picks her top reads.MatildaRoald DahlI once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl’s writing and it gave me a new appreciation for his strange and delightful words. Matilda’s battles with her cruel parents and the bossy headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, are equally funny and frightening, but they’re also aspirational.After DarkHaruki MurakamiIt’s about two sisters—Eri, a model who either won’t or can’t stop sleeping, and Mari, a young student. In trying to connect to her sister, Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse “night people〞 who are hiding secrets. Gone GirlGillian FynnThere was a bit of me that didn’t want to love this when everyone else on theplanet did, but the horror story is brilliant. There’s tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and Amy battle for your trust. It’s a real whodunit and the frustration when you realise what’s going on is horribly enjoyable.The StandStephen KingThis is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around. After a serious flu outbreak wipes out 99.4% of the world’s population, a battle unfolds between good and evil among those left. Randall Flagg is one of the scariest characters ever.1.

( 共 15 小题,总分值 30 分)AAs a boy I was always small for my age. I was also fiveyears younger than one of my brothers and seven yearsyounger than the other. As a result I often felt left out when theirfriends came over to play. I was either too small or tooyoung for whatever they were doing and they didn't wanttheir younger brother listening to their conversations either.More often than not I found myself outside playing alone andfeeling forgotten.I remember one spring afternoon feeling especially lonely asI sat in the yard behind our house. We lived miles from townand I hardly saw my own friends outside of school. I heardmy brothers laughing from inside the house and felt a singletear coming down my cheek. At that moment I saw a largebrown dog walking over to me. He looked happy and his tail was wagging as well. Even though he didn't know me he greeted melike a long lost friend, licking( 舔) my chin and sitting besideme on the spring grass. It must have been at least an hourthat I patted and talked to this four-legged angel. Helet me pour out all my troubles and share my deepest thoughtsbefore he kissed my cheek goodbye and ambled off either toHeaven or his home. I went back inside feeling happy, knowingthat no matter what life may hold I was loved. Now over 40years later I still remember that angel with a smile.I believe that God sent him at that moment of sadness toremind me just how much he loved me. There is nothingmore important than knowing we are loved. When we areloved, we will learn to love others. Learning to love helps usto understand ourselves and other people better.1.How did the writer feel when his brothers’ friends came?A. Proud.B. Worried.C. Lonely.D. Happy.2.The writer shared his troubles and thoughts with thedog because ______.A. it was his friendB. it could understand himC. it looked like an angelD. it was friendly to him3.From Paragraph 2, we can learn that ______.A. the boy met a long lost friendB. the boy had no friends at schoolC. the dog spent the afternoon with the boy and his brothersD. the dog helped the boy realize that he was loved4.The author wrote the story to______.A. encourage people to talk about their troublesB. show knowing you are loved is the most importantC. tell people they should treat animals friendlyD. share his unforgettable experience with usBI am a good mother to three children. I have tried never tolet my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.I no longer consider myself the center of the universe. Ishow up. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to myhusband. I have tried to make marriage vows ( 誓约 ) mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me.Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.So here's what I wanted to tell you today real life, not a desire of the next promotion ( :get a life. A提升 ), thebigger paycheck, the larger house.Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love ,and who love you. And remember that love is not leisure( 休闲 ) but work. Pick up the phone. Send an e­mail. Write aletter. And realize that life is the best thing and that youhave no business taking it for granted.It is so easy to waste our lives,our days,our hours,andour minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of living. Ilearned to live many years ago. Something really,really bad happened to me ,something that changed my life. If I had mychoice ,it would never have been changed at all. And what Ilearned from it is what,today,seems to be the hardestlesson of all.I learned to love the journey,not the destination. Ilearned to look at all the good in the world and tried togive some of it back because I believed in it,completely and totally. And I tried to do that,in part,by telling otherswhat I had learned.By telling them this :read in the backyard with the sun on your face. Learn to be happy. And think of life as a deadly illness ,because if you do ,you will live with joy and passion( 激情 ) as it ought to be lived.5.How did the author form her view of life?A.Through social experience.B.By learning from her friends.C.Through an unfortunate experience.D.

It may be a difficult thing forsome people, but for me, it is an easy thing. Mom lovedflowers, so every year I sent her flowers. Actually she had abed of irises (鸢尾花) in the backyard of her small, Indianafarm. They were beautiful.“Take some,〞she said,“Dig some up and plant them on the side of your own house.〞But in my yard they became lacking in energy. A year passed,then two, but not one flower appeared. I cut back all their green leaves. I was tired of seeing them so lonely. Finally,I dug the irises up and threw them away.About that time Mom died unexpectedly. My sister and I soldthe farm. I never went back to see the irises. I justcouldn ’t stand seeing another family living in our home—Mom’s home. Autumn came, then winter. T he following spring,as Mom’s birthday approached, I struggled with the questionof how to remember her. I stared out of the window and saw afew stubborn irises in my side yard sprouting (发芽),—tall, thin but flowerless. Because of seeing them, I decided toorder flowers as I always did on Mom’s birthday, and send them to my sister. I wished so badly I could still sendflowers to Mom. But that was impossible.On the morning of Mom ’s birthday, I was in my car ready to work. Something in the yard caught my eye. The irises! Onehad bloomed with flowers, big, showy and purple, as lovely asthey ever had been on Mom ’s farm. I smiled and turned myeyes upward. I could no longer send flowers to Mom. But somehow, she’d been able to send them to me.9.According to the first paragraph, Mom ________.A. didn ’t like the presents from the authorB. wanted to give the author some flowersC. lived with the author on an Indiana farmD. got different birthday presents from the author everyyear10.At first, the irises in the author ’s yard ________.A. all died quicklyB. grew as well as on Mom ’s farmC. didn ’t bloom at allD. grew better than those on Mom ’s farm11.What troubled the author?A.

She didn ’t know what to do in memory of Mom.12.What can be learned from the last paragraph?A. All the irises in the author ’s yard bloomed.B. The author went to see the irises in Mom ’s yard.C. It was Mom who took care of these irises in the author’s yard.D. The author thought the blooming irises were gifts fromMom.DThe following are letters to the editor of a schoolnewspaper.Dear editor,I ’d like to expr ess my opinion about grades. Studentsshould be allowed to study without worrying about grades. Fortunately, most educators are becoming aware of the factthat students have different interests and abilities. Iunderstand that grades are useful, but grades often limitcreativity. Competing for better grades causes many studentsto turn down opportunities to pursue music, dramatics andsports. Grades force an arbitrary(武断的) standard of successon everyone. I do not demand as some extremists do, thatgrades be removed immediately. However, I do believe that less emphasis should be placed on grades. I hope that somedaygrades will become optional at Village High School.Magdalena SmithDrama ClubDear editor,I ’d like to say something about grades. Let ’s fa ce the factsabout grades. Grades perform three basic functions. First, grades motivate( 激发 ) students to work at theirhighest level of competence(水平). Second, they act as areward for hardworking students and as a punishment tostudents who do not work hard. Finally, grades are used as aneffective standard by which to measure students’ achievement. Good grades help students to get jobs and to get intouniversity. I've spoken with a number of students who havejobs, and most of them say that they were hired primarily onthe basis of their grades. My grades helped me land a part-time job and will help me get into university next year. Ithink grades are extremely important at Village High School.Simon HarperScience Club13.Which of the following is not M agdalena Smith ’s opinion?A. Grades should not be used to measure a person ’s success.B. Students may give up the chance to learn music andsports for grades.C. Students ’ creativity may not be developed for grades.D. Grades should be taken away at once.14.We can learnSimon Harper _____.A. is concerned about students' creativityB. believes in the benefits of good gradesC. doesn't work too hard at his studiesD. supports students' interests and abilities15.From the second letter, we can infer that Simon Harperis a/an_____.A. studentB. teacherC. headmasterD. advertiser第二节 ( 共 5 小题 ; 每题 2 分,总分值 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选项。

The most unfortunate people in the world are those who have never discovered how satisfying it is to read good books.I am most interested in people and in finding out about them. Some of the most outstanding people I’ve met existed only in a writer’s imagination, then on the pages of his books, and then, again, in my imagination. I’ve found in books new friends, new society, an d new world.Reading is the pleasure of the mind, which means that it is a little like a sport: your eagerness and knowledge and quickness make you a good reader. Reading is fun, not because the writer is telling you something, but because it makes your mi nd work. Your own imagination works along with the author’s or even goes beyond his. Your experience, compared with his, brings you to the same or different conclusions, and your ideas develop as you understand his.Every book stands by itself, like a one-family house, but books in a library are like houses in a city. Although they are separate, together they all add up to something. They are connected with each other andwith other cities. The same ideas, or related ones, turn up in different places; the human problems that repeat themselves in life repeat themselves in literature, but with different solutions according to different writings at different times. Books influence each other; they link the past, the present and future and have their own generations, like families. Wherever you start reading, you connect yourself with one of the families of ideas, and in the long run, you not only find out about the world and the people in it; you find out about yourself, too.Reading can only be fun if you expe ct it to be. If you concentrate on books somebody tells you “you ought to” read, you probably won’t have fun. But if you put down a book you don’t like and try another till you find one that means something to you, and then relax with it, you will almost certainly have a good time—and if you become, as a result of reading, better, wiser, or kinder, you won’t have suffered during the process.44. What kind of people are the most unfortunate in the writer’s eyes?A. Those who only know how to get the most from his books.B. Those who exist only in a writer’s imagination.C.

Instead, people will choose a progra m from a “menu” and a computer will send the program directly to the television. Today, we can use the World Wide Web to read newspaper stories and see pictures on a computer thousands of kilometers away. By 2050, music, films, programs, newspapers, and books will come to us by computer.Cars will run on new, clean fuels and they will go very fast. Cars will have computers to control the speed and there won’t be any accidents. Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are.

Today, the United States Space Shuttle can go into space and land on Earth again. By 2050, space planes will fly all over the world and people will fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just 2 hours.Robots will have replaced people in factories. Many factories already use robots. Big computers prefer robots—they don’t ask for pay rises or go on strike, and they work 24 hours a day. By 2050, we will see robots everywhere—in factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.Medical technology will have conquered many diseases. Today, there are devices(设备)that connect directly to the brain to help people hear. By 2050, we will be able to help blind and deaf people to see and hear again.Scientist will have discovered how to control genes(基因). Scientists have already produced clones (克隆)of animals.
