ADuring my high school years, the most important thing was what I was wearing to the Friday night dance and who I was taking. Although college was talked about, it was the least of my worries.When I was graduating eighth grade and starting high school, my older brother was graduating twelfth grade and going onto college. For my graduation, he gave me a card in which he wrote, “Enjoy your four years…, they go by fast.” I remember not believing him then, but looking back…, he was right. Those four years shaped who I was as a person, pushed me to my limit and encouraged me to become an adult.However, I was so completely absorbed in my junior and senior years of high school, that when someone spoke of college I brushed it off. I wasn't ready to leave my comfort zone of having all of my closest friends together and knowing what every single day was going to be like . Studying was something I did only AFTER I nailed my half-time dance performance. I knew my parents wanted me to go to college, so I told them I would go to commuity college and I didn’t worry about my SAT scores.When my senior year passed and everyone graduated and went off to their own college ,I started to wish I had done the same. My friends were living away, meeting new people, discovering new places, and I was living at home and driving to and from class every day. It seemed exactly like high school. I hated it! I thought college was supposed to be different! Why didn’t I take more time to research colleges and do the same? I ended up loving college and wishing I had four years to enjoy the campus atmosphere instead of two.My advice to anyone thinking about attending college is to think about it very seriously and look into all of your choices well ahead of time. Now I have graduated and I am working full time and I would do anything to go back to my high school days for a second chance!21．Why didn’t the author worry about his SAT scores?A．He had a gift for dance..B．He wanted to go to community collegeC．He was well prepared for the exam.D．He believed his brother would help him.22．When in high school, the author .A．buried himself in his study all the timeB．drove to and from class every dayC．enjoyed talking about future college lifeD．lived in the school except on holidays23．What did the author’s brother mean by “Enjoy your four years…, they go by fast.”?A．He wished the author to have more dance.B．He encouraged the author to leave his comfort zone.C．He advised the author to value the years.D．He suggested the author aim at a community college.24．Talking of his high school years, the author feels .A．regretful B．lonely C．angry D．pleasedBLiverpool, with its half a million citizens, is a big city. It's a city with variety and options.Every year, tourists from all over the world go to Liverpool, most of whom head straight for the stadium to catch the city's two football teams in action. Liverpool and Everton are both world－famous clubs with fans from all corners of the World, as well as a good number of home grown supporters.Another big draw to the city is the four local boys. Paul, John, George and Ringo, collectively famous as The Beatles. The pop quartet (四重唱表演小组) first put Liverpool on the world map in the 1960s. The Beatles Story, situated at the Albert Dock, is a huge draw for fans, and you'll find the Beatles shop and ever－popular Cavern Club, the “birthplace of the perfect Four”, in the Cavern Quarter of the city. Fans can also join one of the coach trips around the sights associated with the band, from the houses they grew up in, to the places including Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields.But Liverpool is about more than music and sport. It is rich in history, with some of the most shocking architecture in the UK. The city has two great cathedrals(教堂): Anglican－the largest of its kind in Europe; and themore modern－styled Metropolitan. The famous waterfront, with the Pierhead and the Albert Docks, is also worth a visit. Many of the city's great museums are situated here, including the Walker Art Gallery, the Liverpool Maritime Museum, and the Tate Gallery, which is home to the largest modern art collection in the North. The nightlife in the city also has a lot to offer. With more than 250 bars, pubs and restaurants, there is always something for everyone to do in Liverpool. Music, museums, shopping, history, pubs and bars——it's all there. It is the world in one city, a place truly deserving of the Capital of Culture title.25．Liverpool and Everton are___________clubs.A．architecture B．music C．tourist D．football26．What made Liverpool first known to the world?A．The Beatles.

Get aboard if you want to learn more about this underground transportation system. This is an unusual form of transportation, because it is a tunnel that trains travel through and not an actual form of transportation.The Chunnel is actually the English nickname for the Channel Tunnel. In French, it is called le tunnel sous la Manche. It is a rail tunnel beneath the English Channel at the Straits of Dover. It connects Cheriton in Kent, England with Sangatte in northern France. It is the second longest rail tunnel in the world.Did you know that the British and the French had a race whi1e they were building the Chunnel? The race was to see who could get to the middle of the tunnel first. The British won by a little bit. It took 15,000 workers over seven years to dig the tunnel. The tunnel was finished in 1994.The completed Chunnel cost about $ 21 billion. But it all paid off, because it became very popular, very quick.Millions of people use it. Now it is getting even more popular.There are three complete tunnels in the Chunnel. The two outside ones are the passenger trains. The small inner one is a guidance train. The guidance train is not used for transportation. Each track is exactly parallel to each other.There are four different train systems in the Chunnel. The Eurostar is a high speed passenger service that connects London, Paris, Brussels, and Lille. The Eurotunnel shuttle is a rail ferry service. These shuttles carry cars. These are railcars that allow drivers to drive their vehicles on and off. There are also two Eurotunnel goods service trains.Now you know more about the Chunnel. Everybody off, this is the last stop.29．The Channel Tunnel connects ______ with _______.A. Dover; KentB. London; ParisC. Cheriton; SangatteD. Lille; Brussels30．Which of the following shows the structure of the tunnels in the Chunnel?31．The Eurotunnel shuttle is intended to carry _________.A. passengersB. goodsC. drivers and their vehiclesD. staff members of the Chunnel32．The text can most probably be __________.A. found in a textbookB. broadcast on a trainC. read in a magazineD. heard in a railway stationDTo get cash out in the 21st century, you won’t need a bank card, a PIN or even have to move a finger. You will simply have to look the cash machine straight in the eye, declares National Cash Registers, a multinational company that makes automated teller machines, or A TMs. NCR has shown its first example machine that is believed to be the future of banking. Instead of asking you for your PIN on a screen, the Super Teller-Stella for short, asks you orally through a loudspeaker to look straight ahead while an infrared camera turns to your head, then your eye, and finally takes an infrared photograph of your iris . For identification purposes, an iris picture isbetter than a fingerprint, with around 256 noticeable characteristics compared with 40 for fingerprints. This means that the chances of someone else being recognized in your place is about 1 in 1020. Once you’ve been identified, Stella gree ts you by name and says: “Would you like cash or a statement?” An infrared port allows the machine to send a bank statement straight to your pocket computer.33．What does this passage mainly talk about?A．A new type of cash machineB．A new medical instrumentC．A new type of talking machineD．National Cash Register34．What is this new machine called?A．PIN B．A TM C．Stella D．NCR35．When you want to get cash out in the 21st century, you will _______.A．need a bank card B．have to put in your PINC．move your finger D．just look directly at the teller machine第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分l0分) 将答案填涂在答题卡上根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，有两项为多余选项。

AAn artist in Oakland, California is using his skills to help the homeless. Greg Kloehn builds very small shelters that make life on the streets a little more comfortable. The structures offer the homeless some safety and protection from bad weather. Each little house also has wheels on the bottom so it can go wherever its owner goes.Greg Kloehn has given away at least 20 tiny houses. Several are on the roadside near an active railroad. On a recent day, Mr. Kloehn stops at one to visit Oscar Young. The two men hug. Inside his little shelter Mr. Young gets relief from cold nights on the streets. Mr. Kloehn also visits Sweet-Pea, another friend who also lives in one of the little homes the artist built. She says it keeps her safe and protects her belongings.In the mornings, Mr. Kloehn searches the streets for building materials. He gathers what he can and takes it to his studio. There, he puts the houses together. Empty coffee bags become roof material. A washing machine door and refrigerator part become windows. Nails, screws and the sticky glue hold all the pieces together. The artist also attaches a small electrical device to the house. The device is powered by the sun.Some of the people living on the streets once had normal houses of their own. But some of the people say they have learned to live with less and they are thankful to that man.Mr. Kloehn says his work is not a social project. He says he is just someone using his skills to help his homeless neighbors.21. The following are the advantages of the small shelters except ________.A. saving power and energyB. protecting possessions of the homelessC. decorating the streets where they areD. keeping the homeless safe and comfortable22.

The government has got involved in the action23. The passage is likely taken from ________.A. An official reportB. An art reviewC. A science magazineD. A news report24. Wha t’s the main idea of the passage?A. An artist creates homes for the homeless.B. A more comfortable shelter on the streets.C. A successful social project in Oakland.D. An artist makes a living by designing small shelters.BResearchers in Hungary have confirmed something many dog owners have long suspected: that canines understand our feelings.Using a Magnetic Resonance Scanner, or MRI, scientists found that when it comes to emotions, dogs’ brains are similar to those of humans. Dogs are usually not relaxed in a lab environment, but with a little petting and lots of treats they can be trained to sit still even in an MRI scanner. That’s how researchers in Hungary’s ELTE University were able to get images of their brains at work.Research fellow Attila Andics says it helped them better understand the dogs’ relationship with humans. “We have known for a long time that dogs and humans share similar social environment, but now our results show that dogs and humans also have similar brain mechanisms（大脑机制）to process social information,”said Andics.After training 11 dogs to stay motionless while their brains were scanned, the researchers checked their neurological（神经系统的）responses to about 200 emotionally significant sounds, from whining and crying to playful barking and laughing. They then compared the responses from human subjects. They found striking similarities.Andics says it opens new possibilities for research. “It establishes a foundation of a new branch of comparative neuroscience, because until now it was not possible to measure the brain activities of a non-primate（非人灵长类动物）and the primate brain in a single experiment,” said Andics.And what that tells ordinary dog owners, the Hungarian scientists say, is to treat your canine companions as friends, not mere animals, because they evidently understand human feelings.25. Which of the following statements is true?A. Dog’s behaviors are the same as those of humans.B. Usually dogs can sit still in a lab environment.C. Dog owners shouldn’t treat dogs as their friends.D. The emotions of dogs are similar to those of humans.26. What does the underlined word “canines” mean in the first paragraph?A. DogsB. AnimalsC. dog ownersD. researchers27. How do researchers get the dogs to sit still?A. By force.B. By injection.C. By comforting and treating.D. By ignoring.CHave Fun at UK’s Most Famous Theme ParkAlton Towers Theme Park re-opens with selected rides and attractions for Half-Term from 19th to 27th of February 2011, and then again for the main season, starting on 26th March, 2011.There’s something for the whole family at Alton Towers, with lots of terrific rides, amazing live shows, and wonderful costume characters.

Users of social-networking sites have on average 121 online friends as compared with physical ones. The study also claims that people tend to be more open, confident and honest with their virtual friends than their “real” ones.“For most people , the Internet is a way of keeping in touch with loved ones and friends, but for people who are isolated（隔离的）due to illness, it plays a more vital role, and can often act as a lifeline.”says Helen Oxley, a psychologist at Wythenshawe hospital.“People with illnesses often rely on the Internet to facilitate（促进）friendships, since they blog and use networking sites as a way of dealing with their illness. It can foster（培养）a sense of social connection for those who frequently feel isolated, which is important to psychological well-being.”In wider society, the ways in which friendships are formed are changing, with people recognizing that they can develop deep and meaningful connections with others that they’ve never met, and may never meet. About one in 10 people has either met their best friends online, or believes they can make lifelong friends on the Web.The findings highlight how social introductions are also changing. Only five percent would ask for someone’s phone number, while 23 percent are now likely to ask for an email address or a full name with the intention of adding the person to their social network.At the same time, however, a questionnaire completed by 4,427 suggests that 20 percent of parents believe their children’s education is affected by surfing the Net. They think their children are doing poorly at the school due to the amount of time they spend on non-educational websites.32. The underlined word “it” in Para 1 most probably refers to ________.A. people spending too much time surfing the NetB. people having more virtual friends than real onesC. people relying on the Internet to connect with friendsD. people making meaningful connections with strangers33. We can infer from the text that________.A. sick people can recover more quickly by surfing the NetB. students get important information onlineC. people tend to trust their virtual friends more than their real onesD. students who surf the net always perform not so well34. What percentage of parents believe that the Internet has a bad effect on their children?A. About 5 percent.B. About 10 percent.C. About 23 percent.D. About 20 percent.35. In the next part, the author will probably discuss ________.A. how children make use of the Internet to studyB. how much time children spend on the InternetC. how children learn about the world through the NetD. how parents feel about their children’s studies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。

ASometimes two very different individuals (个体)become the best friends. For example,, who could have thought that a spider would become friends with a pig? But in American writer E.B.White’ novel Charlotte’s Web, this is exactly what happensWibur the pig grows up in a barn(谷仓) and makes many friends, including a spider called Charlotte. One day a sheep tells Wibur that he will finally be served up as dinner. But Charlotte decides to save her friend. To help Wibur，Charlotte writes words like “terrific”, “radiant” and “humble” on her web to praise Wibur. This makes the farmer believe that is too important to kill.Wibur is saved, but Charlotte is so tired that she dies.The book was first published in 1952. In over 60 years Charlotte has become one of the most famous spider s of all time. She teaches us about love and promise. “She is very, very loving under that crusty(暴躁),that ugly look,” Peter Neumeyer, writer of The Annotated Charlott’s Web The book’s success drew the attention of Hollywood filmmakers , however, they wanted a happier ending. White was strongly against this idea and as a result the film, like the book, ends with Charlotte’s death.Jen Doll, reporter with The Atlantic, believe that “death is a part of life”. She says this is one of the main messages of the book.As Charlotte tells Wibur, “You have been my frien d. That in itself is a wonderful thing. I wove(纺织)my webs for you because I like you. After all, what’s a life, anyway? We’re born, we live a little while and then we die. A spider’s life can’t help being something of a mess(杂乱), with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a little. God knows anyone’s life can stand a little of that.”21.Which of the following about the story is TRUE?A.It’s a good example of how differences make us differentB.It encourages children to love their family and friendsC.The farmer kills Wibur as dinnerD.Charlotte is loving and helpful although she is ugly22.What is the disagreement about Charlotte’s Web between Hollywood filmmaker and White?A.How Charlotte makes friends with WiburB.How to make Charlotte lovelyC.Whether Charrlotte should dieD.Whether Wibur should be killed23.In the last paragraph, Charlotte’s main message is that _________A.life could be boring and troublesomeB.friendship is more important than lifeC.dying for a good cause is worthwhile(值得的)D.life is like a webBElizabeth and I are 18 now, and about to graduate. I think about our elementary school friendship, but some memories have blurred(模糊). What happened that day in the fifth grade when Beth suddenly stopped speaking to me? D oes she know that I’ve been thinking about her for seven years? If only we could go back, and discover what ended our relationship.I have to speak with Beth. I see her sometimes, and find out school is “fine”. It’s not the same. It nvever will be. Someone says that she’s Liz now. what happened to Beth?I can’t call her. Should I write? What if she doesn’t answer me? How will I know what she’s thinking?Yes, I’ll write her a letter. These things are easier to express in writing. “Dear Be-,” no, “Dea r Li-” no, “Dear Elizabeth,” I begin. The words flow freely, as seven-year-old memories are reborn.I ask her all the questions that have been left unanswered in my mind, and pray she will answer. I seal my thoughts in the perfect white envelope, and imagine Beth looking into the mailbox. Will she know why I’m writing? Maybe she once thought of writing the same letter.As the mailman takes my envelope from me forever, I wonder if I’ve made the right decision. Do I have the right to force myself into Bet h’s life again? Am I simply part of the past? I have taken the first stop. Beth has control of the situation now.One day has passed. Are my words lying on the bottom of the post office floor.Two days are gone. I’m lost in thought and don’t even he ar the phone ring.“Hello? It’s Elizabeth”24.What can we learn about Beth?A. She had a quarrel with the author in the fifth gradeB. She moved to another school in the fifth gradeC. She is now called Liz instead of BethD. She hasn’t seen the autho r for seven years25.Why does the author decide to write a letter instead of calling?A. She is sure that Beth will not answerB. She’s afraid that they’ll quarrel on the phoneC. She doesn’t know Beth’s telephone numberD. It is easier to express her feelings in writing26.What does the underlined sentence mean in the fifth paragraph?A .It’s up to Beth to decide what to do nextB .Beth is to be blamed for the ending of their friendshipC.

The letter doesn’t reach Beth at allC. They make up their friendshipD. Beth refuses to make peace with herCThere are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are worth a try. How? Packaging is the silent but persuading salesman.There on the shelves, each bottle, can ,box, and jar has been carefully designed and measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer, because he/she is buying not only a product but also his/her belief in life. Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect o n the “quality” of the product and on how well it sells, because “consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products.”, as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers’ feelings for packaging, noticed.Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colours draw human attention quickly. Take V8 for example. For many years, the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that is it very good for your body. And the word“green” today can keep food prices going up.Shapes are another attraction. Circles often suggest happiness and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to both the eye and the heart. That’s why the round yellow M signs of McDonald’s are inviting to both young and old.This new consumer response to the colors and shapes of packages reminds producers and sellers that people by to satisfy both body and soul.28.According to the passage, _____ seems to be able to persuade a consumer to buy the product.A.the pleasing color of the packageB. he special taste of the productC. the strange shape of the packageD. the belief in the product29.If a package or a product is round in shape, it can ____________.A. bring excitement to the consumersB. attract the consumers’ attentionC. catch the eye movement of the consumersD produce a happy and peaceful feeling30.“And the word green today can keep food prices going up ” This sentence suggests thatconsumers today are _________.A. starting to notice the importance of new foodB. enjoying the beauty of nature more than beforeC. beginning to like green vegetablesD. paying more attention to their health31.It can be inferred from the passage that V8 is a kind of ________.A vegetable dish B. healthy juice C. iced drink D red vegetableDTayka Hotel de SalWhere：Tahua，BoliviaHow much：About $95 a nightWhy it’s cool：You’ve stayed at hotels m ade of brick or wood，but salt？That’s something few can claim.Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt—including the beds (though you’ll sleep on regular mattresses(床垫) and blankets)．The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni，a prehistoric dried-up lake which i s the world’s biggest salt flat.Builders use the salt from the 4,633squaremile flat to make the bricks，and glue them together with a paste (糊) of wet salt that hardens when it dries.When rain starts to dissolve the hotel，the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.Green Magic Nature ResortWhere：Vythiri，IndiaHow much：About $240 a nightWhy it’s cool：Taking a pulley(滑轮)-operated lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure.As you look out of your open window—there is no glass！—you watch monkeys and birds in the rain forest canopy(罩篷)．Later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel，or just sit on your bamboo bed and read.You don’t even have to come dow n for breakfast—the hotel will send it up on the pulley-drawn “elevator”．Dog Bark Park Inn B&BWhere：Cottonwood，IdahoHow much：$92 a nightWhy it’s cool：This doghouse isn’t just for the family pet.Sweet_Willy is a 30-foot-tall dog with guest rooms in his belly.Climb the wooden stairs beside his hind leg to enter the door in his side.You can relax in the main bedroom，go up a few steps of the loft(阁楼) in Willy’s head，or hang out inside his nose.Although you have a full private bathroom in your quarters，there is also a toilet in the 12-foot-tall fire hydrant(消防栓) outside.Gamirasu Cave HotelWhere：Ayvali，TurkeyHow much：Between $130 and $475 a nightWhy it’s cool：This is caveman cool！Experience what it was like 5,000 years ago，when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash.But your stay will be much more modern.Bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel，and the white volcanic ash，called tufa，keeps the rooms cool，—there is heat in winter.)32．What do we know about Tayka Hotel de Sal?A．It is located on a prehistoric lake.B．It should be protected against the rain.C．Everything in the hotel is made of salt.D．You have to cross a rope bridge to the hotel.33．What is the similarity of the four hotels?A．Being expensive.B．Being comfortable.C．Being natural.D．Being unique.34．What does the underlined words “Sweet Willy” refer to?A．The name of the hotel.B．The name of the hotel owner.C．The building of Dog Bark Park Inn B&B.D．The name of a pet dog of the hotel owner.35．Which of the hotels makes you have a feeling of living in the far past?A．Tayka Hotel de Sal.B．Green Magic Nature Resort.C．Dog Bark Park Inn B&B.D．Gamirasu Cave Hotel.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

ADuring my high school years, the most important thing was what I was wearing to the Friday night dance and who I was taking. Although college was talked about, it was the least of my worries.When I was graduating eighth grade and starting high school, my older brother was graduating twelfth grade and going onto college. For my graduation, he gave me a card in which he wrote, “Enjoy your four years…, they go by fast.”I remember not believing him then, but looking back…, he was right. Those four years shaped who I was as a person, pushed me to my limit and encouraged me to become an adult.However, I was so completely absorbed in my junior and senior years of high school, that when someone spoke of college I brushed it off. I wasn't ready to leave my comfort zone of having all of my closest friends together and knowing what every single day was going to be like . Studying was something I did only AFTER I nailed my half-time dance performance. I knew my parents wanted me to go to college, so I told them I would go to commuity college and I didn’t worry about my SAT scores.When my senior year passed and everyone graduated and went off to their own college ,I started to wish I had done the same. My friends were living away, meeting new people, discovering new places, and I was living at home and driving to and from class every day. It seemed exactly like high school. I hated it! I thought college was supposed to be different! Why didn’t I take more time to research colleges and do the same? I ended up loving college andwishing I had four years to enjoy the campus atmosphere instead of two.My advice to anyone thinking about attending college is to think about it very seriously and look into all of your choices well ahead of time. Now I have graduated and I am working full time and I would do anything to go back to my high school days for a second chance!21．Why didn’t the author worry about his SAT scores?A．He had a gift for dance..B．He wanted to go to community collegeC．He was well prepared for the exam.D．He believed his brother would help him.22．When in high school, the author .A．buried himself in his study all the timeB．drove to and from class every dayC．enjoyed talking about future college lifeD．lived in the school except on holidays23．What did the author’s brother mean by “Enjoy your four years…, they go by fast.”?A．He wished the author to have more dance.B．He encouraged the author to leave his comfort zone.C．He advised the author to value the years.D．He suggested the author aim at a community college.24．Talking of his high school years, the author feels .A．regretful B．lonely C．angry D．pleasedBLiverpool, with its half a million citizens, is a big city. It's a city with variety and options. Every year, tourists from all over the world go to Liverpool, most of whom head straight for the stadium to catch the city's two football teams in action. Liverpool and Everton are both world－famous clubs with fans from all corners of the World, as well as a good number of home grown supporters.Another big draw to the city is the four local boys. Paul, John, George and Ringo, collectively famous as The Beatles. The pop quartet (四重唱表演小组) first put Liverpool on the world map in the 1960s. The Beatles Story, situated at the Albert Dock, is a huge draw for fans,and you'll find the Beatles shop and ever－popular Cavern Club, the “birthplace of the perfect Four”, in the Cavern Quarter of the city. Fans can also join one of the coach trips around the sights associated with the band, from the houses they grew up in, to the places including Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields.But Liverpool is about more than music and sport. It is rich in history, with some of the most shocking architecture in the UK. The city has two great cathedrals(教堂): Anglican－the largest of its kind in Europe; and the more modern－styled Metropolitan.

Get aboard if you want to learn more about this underground transportation system. This is an unusual form of transportation, because it is atunnel that trains travel through and not an actual form of transportation.The Chunnel is actually the English nickname for the Channel Tunnel. In French, it is called le tunnel sous la Manche. It is a rail tunnel beneath the English Channel at the Straits of Dover. It connects Cheriton in Kent, England with Sangatte in northern France. It is the second longest rail tunnel in the world.Did you know that the British and the French had a race whi1e they were building the Chunnel? The race was to see who could get to the middle of the tunnel first. The British won by a little bit. It took 15,000 workers over seven years to dig the tunnel. The tunnel was finished in 1994.The completed Chunnel cost about $ 21 billion. But it all paid off, because it became very popular, very quick. Millions of people use it. Now it is getting even more popular.There are three complete tunnels in the Chunnel. The two outside ones are the passenger trains. The small inner one is a guidance train. The guidance train is not used for transportation. Each track is exactly parallel to each other.There are four different train systems in the Chunnel. The Eurostar is a high speed passenger service that connects London, Paris, Brussels, and Lille. The Eurotunnel shuttle is a rail ferry service. These shuttles carry cars. These are railcars that allow drivers to drive their vehicles on and off. There are also two Eurotunnel goods service trains.Now you know more about the Chunnel. Everybody off, this is the last stop.29．The Channel Tunnel connects ______ with _______.A. Dover; KentB. London; ParisC. Cheriton; SangatteD. Lille; Brussels30．Which of the following shows the structure of the tunnels in the Chunnel?31．The Eurotunnel shuttle is intended to carry _________.A. passengersB. goodsC. drivers and their vehiclesD. staff members of the Chunnel32．The text can most probably be __________.A. found in a textbookB. broadcast on a trainC. read in a magazineD. heard in a railway stationDTo get cash out in the 21st century, you won’t need a bank card, a PIN or even have to move a finger. You will simply have to look the cash machine straight in the eye, declares National Cash Registers, a multinational company that makes automated teller machines, or ATMs. NCR has shown its first example machine that is believed to be the future of banking. Instead of asking you for your PIN on a screen, the Super Teller-Stella for short, asks you orally through a loudspeaker to look straight ahead while an infrared camera turns to your head, then your eye, and finally takes an infrared photograph of your iris . For identification purposes, an iris picture is better than a fingerprint, with around 256 noticeable characteristics compared with 40 for fingerprints. This means that the chances of someone else being recognized in your place is about 1 in 1020. Once you’ve been identified, Stella greets you by name and says: “Would you like cash or a statement?” An infrared port allows the machine to send a bank statement straight to your pocket computer. 33．What does this passage mainly talk about?A．A new type of cash machineB．A new medical instrumentC．A new type of talking machineD．National Cash Register34．What is this new machine called?A．PIN B．ATM C．Stella D．NCR35．When you want to get cash out in the 21st century, you will _______.A．need a bank cardB．have to put in your PINC．move your fingerD．just look directly at the teller machine第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分l0分) 将答案填涂在答题卡上根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，有两项为多余选项。

辽宁省朝阳市重点高中协作校2015届高三英语上学期期中试题
〔英语〕考试时间：120分钟总分为：150分I. 阅读理解( 共两节，总分为40分)第一节〔共15小题，每一小题2分，总分为30分〕阅读如下短文，从每题所给的四个选项〔ABCD〕中，选出最优答案APlan ahead to make your family trip run smoothlyFamily vacations are cherished memories. Keeping children entertained on the road or during a flight, however, can be challenging. The best way to cut down on anxiety? Plan ahead.Avoid giving children snacks that contain sugar and caffeine. Sweet treats keep them happy and quiet for five minutes, as it fills them with unusable energy that will turn into crankiness (脾气坏) when the sugar wears off. Bring fun, small snacks like flavored baked chips, apple sauce, raisins, granola bars—and top it off with a little protein like and cheese sticks to keep the blood sugar levels nice and steady.Bring plenty of plastic or paper bags. This is the perfect time to put those spare bags around the house to use. Store them in your purse or pocket, as well as in the car. This is a quick solution for garbage, diaper wrapping or motion sickness.Avoid extra costs on bulk items you will need during the trip. When flying, purchase bulk items like diapers, formula, wipes at your destination. In the past it was convenient and free to check these items. Now each checked luggage item costs $25 or more on average. When driving, do the opposite; take your bulk items to avoid extra trips to the store when you arrive, which can help you avoid impulse travel purchases.Bring a full change of clothing for each child. Keep these items within fairly easy reach. When a spill or mess happens, this will help parents avoid unexpected (and unbudgeted) clothing purchases.Travel planning can help make family vacations what they are supposed to be: Fun!1．Which of the following can keep the blood sugar levels nice and steady?A．Coffee. B．Apple pie with sugar in it. C．Candies. D．Cheese sticks.2．Why should you bring plenty of plastic or paper bags during vacation?A．Because you can use them to keep garbage, vomit (呕吐物) and wrap diaper.B．Because they can prevent you from being stolen.C．Because big bags can hold more items, which brings you much convenience.D．Because they can save you $25.3．Which is the proper place for you to buy bulk items when driving?A．At the destination.B．At wherever you can buy cheaper ones.C．At the place you just go out of the things you need.D．In the stores near your house.4．What should parents do to avoid unexpected clothing purchases during their vacation?A．Do not let children make their clothes dirty.B．Bring a full change of clothing for each child.C．Wash the dirty clothes frequently.D．Do not allow children eat during their vacation.BFor several years, Americans have enjoyed tele-shopping—watching TV and buying things by phone. Now tele-shopping is starting in Europe (欧洲). In a number of European countries, people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes, jewelry, food, toys, and many other things.Tele-shopping is becoming popular in Sweden, for example. The biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries, and in one year it made ＄100 million. In France there are two tele-shopping channels, and the French spend about ＄20 million a year to buy things through these channels.In Germany, until last year tele-shopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hour every day. Then the government allowed(允许) more tele-shopping. Other channels can open fortele-business, including(包括) the largest American tele-shopping company and a 24 hour tele-shopping company. German businessmen are hoping this new tele-shopping will help them sell more things.Some people like tele-shopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities, this is an important reason. But at the same time, other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. They call tele-shopping “junk (垃圾) on the air〞. Many Europeans usually worry about the quality (质量) of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them, and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.The need for high quality means that European tele-shopping companies will have to be different from the American companies. They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.5. People like tele-shopping because it is __________.A. AmericanB. cheaperC. easierD. more popular6. Some Europeans don’t like tele-shopping because they __________A. don’t like to buy thingsB. don’t watch TVC. believe the things sold on TV are expensiveD. think the things sold on TV are bad quality7. In Germany, tele-shopping may __________A. help businessmen get more moneyB. keep the shops open longerC. have fewer buyersD. bring better TV programmes8. The best title of this passage is __________A. American Tele-shoppingB. Tele-shopping CompaniesC. Tele-shopping in EuropeD. Tele-shopping—Junk on the AirCIf you’re tired of the Mediterraneanand don’t want to head to Disney again, perhaps it’s time for a summer holiday in space. Russia has declared plans for its first floating hotel, 217 miles above earth, and it is something of an offering with good service.Hosting just seven guests in a four cabins, the accommodation will boast huge windows with views back to earth and tasty microwave meals will be served instead of the ones often used by astronauts.Just getting there will be an adventure in itself—it will take two days aboard a Soyuz rocket—and it won’t exactly be a budget holiday: A five-day stay will cost you￡100, 000 to￡500, 000 for your journey. The hotel is due to open by 2016 and, according to those behind it, will be far more comfortable than the International Space Station (ISS) used by astronauts and cosmonauts. In the weightlessness of space, visitors can choose to have beds that are either vertical(垂直的) or horizontal. Tourists, who will be accompanied by experienced crew, will dine on food prepared on Earth and sent up on the rocket, to be reheated in microwave ovens. Many kinds of delicacies will be available.Iced tea, mineral water and fruit juices will be available, but alcohol will be strictly prohibited. Toilets will use flowing air instead of water to move waste through the system. Waste water will be recycled.Sergei Kostenko, chief executive of Orbital Technologies which will construct the hotel, said: “Our planned module inside will not remind you of the International Space Station. A hotel should be comfortable inside, and it will be possible to look at the Earth. The hotel will be aimed at wealthy individuals and people working for private companies who want to do research in space.〞The hotel can also be used as an emergency bolthole (避难处) for astronauts aboard the International Space Station if there is a crisis.9. Which can be the best title of the passage?A. Russia declares the design for its first space hotelB. The first space hotel is under construction nowC. The astronauts will have a second home in spaceD. Russia has the advanced technology in exploring space10. What does the underlined word “budget〞in the 3rd paragraph mean?A. expensiveB. worthwhileC. economicD. uncomfortable11. What kind of accommodation will the guests have in the space hotel?A. They will have the same food as the astronauts have.B. Many kinds of drinks are available including alcohol.C. Guests can have beds that are either vertical or horizontal.D. Tourists are accompanied by the astronauts from the ISS.12. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. The space hotel is built to remind you of the International Space Station.B. The hotel is constructed with big windows so that tourists can see the earth.C. The company, Orbital Technologies, has already begun to build the spacehotel.D. In the near future, a space trip for most of the people can be realized.DI wish there would be a way to describe China in simple terms but that’s impossible. For the most part Chinese people are friendly, easy-going and optimistic. They are curious and unusually patient and they are also the hardest-working people I have ever met.In China, family is everything. In my English classes when the students were asked what they would do if they only had a few hours to live, most students told me how they would spend their last few hours with their families and parents. Many times the subjects in the classes center on families and friends. I teach many students a year, talking to them freely.The cost of living here is very low compared with that of the US. The city of Xiang Fan I live in isn’t large and I live better. Non-imported(非出口的) foods are very cheap, so are clothing andarticles of everyday use. The cost of public transportation is very low, too. Chinese value education. However, it is reported that many children can’t afford the expenses of schooling and are forced to leave school in some poor areas in China. But they organized Project Hope many years ago. It creates conditions for the poor children to go back to school. In my opinion, Project Hope is of great importance to the development of the rural education.When we read news of China in the west, rarely, if ever, will we see anything mentioned of the positive changes China has gone through. While it is true that economic miracles have not reached many areas of China, but we also have the same problems.When I am asked which country I consider better, China or the US, my answer has always been the same, “We are not worse or better than each other, we are only different.〞13. What does the author think of Chinese people?A. He thinks most Chinese people hardly work.B. He thinks most Chinese people are proud.C. He praises most Chinese people a lot.D. He dislikes most Chinese people.14. What are not cheap in China in the author’s opinion?A. Clothes and shoes made in China.B. Local foodsC. Public transportation tickets.D. Imported foods15. We can infer from the passage that the author thinks __________.A. the westerners have got to know China wellB. China’s economic miracles have appeared everywhereC. the progress of China is seldom reported in the USD. the education in rural areas is never cared about in China第二节〔共5小题；每一小题2分，总分为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优选项。

阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从21-35各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AAs a kid，I felt my happiness would be based on whether I could fulfill(实现) all my needs and wants. If I was rich，I would definitely be content（满足的） with my life.My father always stressed （强调）his belief in happiness. I can remember him lecturing me about how money does not make one happy and how other things in life such as health，family，friends，and memorable experiences make a person genuinely happy. At that time in my life，I did not put any thought into his words as usual.At a young age，I noticed the media seemed to portray(描绘) the wealthy as happy people that add value to our society. At high school I still sought a career that would produce a high salary.After my second year of college，I started my first job in an accounting department，where I found myself extremely bored. Every day I had to do boring work. In addition，I had to live away from friends and family. I noticed having money to spend when you are by yourself was not satisfying.I began to think back to what my dad always said. After two months on the job，I truly realized that a more satisfying experience for me would have been doing an ordinary parttime job for far less money. No matter how high the salary of this position was，I would never be capable of fulfilling a happy life and making a career out of this job.As the summer drew to a close，I truly understood the meaning of my dad’s words. The term “wealth” is a broad term，and I believe the key to happiness is to become wealthy in great memories，friends，family，and health.21．When the author was a kid，________.A．he suffered a lot from being poorB．it worried him whether he could live happilyC．he didn’t take his father’s advice seriouslyD．his attitude to life was greatly influenced by his father22．Through his experience，the author wanted to tell us that________.A．young people should listen to their parentsB．money cannot always bring you real happinessC．one should be careful in choosing his first jobD．one can learn much by doing a parttime job23．What do we know about the author and his first job?A． He decided to make it his lifelong career.B．He got the job with the help of his friends.C．He didn’t earn enough money to support himself.D．He got no happiness although it was well-paid.BHer attractive lips seemed to speak words of kindness, while her eyes appeared to seek（寻找）out the good in people. “You have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.” She used to say.It was for this rare charm and inner beauty that British movie star Audrey Hepburn (1929-1993) was named the most naturally beautiful woman of all time in June, 2004. “Her skin looks fresh in all her films and her warm and lively personality really shines through,” said one beauty expert.Life was never easy for Hepburn. Shortly after her parents’ painful divorce when she was nine, she found herself in the Netherlands at the start of World War II. Hepburn watched helplessly as several of her relatives were killed. She survived by eating tulip bulbs and carried secret messages for the resistance in her ballet shoes. She dreamed of becoming a ballet dancer but was told she was too tall and not talented enough to be a success.Hepburn then turned to musicals and spent most of her time as a chorus girl (舞女). She had some small movie roles but it was not until Roman Holiday (1953) that she became a star. With her good manners and delicate figure, she was perfect in the role of a European princess. She took the Best Actress Oscar for her performance.In 1988 Hepburn began her most important role—as a Goodwill Ambassador(大使) for UNICEF(United Nations Children’s Fund). She traveled to the poorest places, doing her best to provide care and create awareness of the difficult situations in which some children live.When Hepburn passed away, a message displayed a t her funeral read, “In losing Audrey, the world not only lost a movie star, we lost a princess, an angel, a person who inspired us all and whose selfless and loving examples shall always be remembered.”24. When Hepburn began to act as a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF, how many yearshad passed since her parents’ divorce? _________A. 50B. 52C. 38D.4625. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?_________A. To tell readers about Audrey Hepburn’s death.B. To think highly of Au drey Hepburn’s whole life.C. To tell readers the message displayed at Audrey Hepburn’s funeral.D. To say goodbye to Audrey Hepburn.26. Which of the following best describes Audrey Hepburn’s life? _______A. Difficult and lucky.B. Miserable and smooth.C. Hard and successful.D. Easy and smooth.27. What would be the best title for the passage?_______A. Beauty Is Not Just Skin Deep.B. Beauty Is Just Skin Deep.C. Beauty Never Stays Forever.D. A World-famous Beauty expertCGroup –buying in ChinaModeled after US hot website , group buying websites are now popularin China. These websites use the power of group buying to get competitive discounts （打折）for a daily deal on some best stuff to do, see, eat and buy in the cities across China. Discounts（打折） are available within just one click. Zhao lei, a software engineer in Beijing, loves the one-hour lunch break at noon,as it is the best time for him to check “today`s special” at his favorite group buying websites . Sometimes he searches for great deals at directory sites devoted to the new shopping space. Zhao spends around 800 yuan($117.65) on group buying every month, mostly to buy food coupons （优惠劵）for eating at some nice restaurants and occasionally （偶尔的）to find something fun to do. “ I love group buying. In addition to the competitive discounts it offers, it helps me get something fun, exciting and new, and such surprises give me a reason to try something new,” he said. Whe n he finds a really good bargain, he will send the link to friends or colleagues through MSN,QQ, or e-mail, or share the information at some social networking websites. In doing so, he often gets a certain cut off the price. At some sites, buyers are invited to leave notes about what they want to buy and the website will consider it if similar applications （申请）reach a certain number. That is how Zuo got her digital camera after waiting for two months. “It is cool. I want to buy a new digitgal camera for my trip to Switzerland this winter, but I never expected such cheap prices!” Zuo said.28.We can learn from the passage that________.A.

Zhao Lei can`t buy food coupons to eat at a nice restaurant.30.What is the passage mainly about?A. Zhao Lei`s online purchasing life.B.Group buyingC.The US hot websitesD. A new digital camera31.Zhao Lei succeeded in getting a certain cut off the price by__________.A. bargaining face to faceB.discussing with the sellersC.providing the link to othersD.inviting others to talk about the priceD.I was in a terrible mood. Two of my friends had gone to the movies the night before and hadn’t invited me．I was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in. “Want to go for a ride，today，Beck? It’s a beautiful day.”“No ! Leave me alone!”Those were the last words I said to him that morning．My friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later．Iforgot to be mad at them and when I came home to find a note on the table. My mother put it where I would be sure to se e it. “Dad has had an accident. Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital”．When I reached the hospital，my mother came out and told me my father’s injuries were extensive.“Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911，thank God! If he had moved Daddy，there’s no telling what might have happened．A broken rib（肋骨）might have pierced（穿透）a lung….”My mother may have said more，but I didn’t hear．I didn’t hear anything except those terrible words：Leave me alone．My dad said them to save himself from being hurtmore．How much had I hurt him when I hurled those words at him earlier in the day? It was several days later that he was finally able to have a conversation．I held his hand gently, afraid of hurting him．“Daddy… I am so sorry….”“It’s okay，sweetheart．I'll be okay．”“No，”I said，“I mean about what I said to you that day．You know, that morning?”My father could no more tell a lie than he could fly．He looked at me and said．“Sweetheart,I don’t remember anything about that day， not before，during or after the accident.I remember kissing you goodnight the night before，though．”He managed a weak smile．My English teacher once told me that words have immeasurable power．They can hurt or they can heal．And we all have the power to choose our words. I intend to do that very carefully from now on.32．The author was in bad mood that morning because .A．his father had a terrible accident B．he couldn’t drive to the mall with his friendsC．his friends hadn’t invited him to the cinemaD．his father didn’t allow him to go out with his friends33．Why did the author say sorry to his father in the hospital?A．Because he didn’t go along with his father．B．Because he was rude to his father that morning．C．Because he failed to come earlier after the accident．D．Because he couldn’t look after his father in the hospital34.The reason why the author’s father said he forgot everything about that day isthat .A．he had a poor memory B．he didn’t want to comfort his sonC．he just wanted to comfort his son D．he lost his memory after the accident 35．What lesson did Beck learn from the matter?A．Don’t treat your parents badly． B．Don’t hurt others with rude words．C．Don’t move the injured in an accident． D．Don’t be angry wit h friends at small thin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。

ASometimes two very different individuals (个体)become the best friends. For example,, who could have thought that a spider would become friends with a pig? But in American writer E.B.White’ novel Charlotte’s Web, this is exactly what happensWibur the pig grows up in a barn(谷仓) and makes many friends, including a spider called Charlotte. One day a sheep tells Wibur that he will finally be served up as dinner. But Charlotte decides to save her friend. To help Wibur，Charlotte writes words like “terrific”, “radiant”and “humble”on her web to praise Wibur. This makes the farmer believe that is too important to kill.Wibur is saved, but Charlotte is so tired that she dies.The book was first published in 1952. In over 60 years Charlotte has become one of the most famous spiders of all time. She teaches us about love and promise. “She is very, very loving under that crusty(暴躁),that ugly look,”Peter Neumeyer, writer of The Annotated Charlott’s Web The book’s success drew the attention of Hollywood filmmakers , however, they wanted a happier ending. White was strongly against this idea and as a result the film, like the book, ends with Charlotte’s death.Jen Doll, reporter with The Atlantic, believe that “death is a part of life”. She says this is one of the main messages of the book.As Charlotte tells Wibur, “You have been my friend. That in itself is a wonderful thing. I wove(纺织)my webs for you because I like you. After all, what’s a life, anyway? We’re born, we live a little while and then we die. A spider’s life can’t help being something of a mess(杂乱), with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a little. God knows anyone’s life can stand a little of that.”21.Which of the following about the story is TRUE?A.It’s a good example of how differences make us differentB.It encourages children to love their family and friendsC.The farmer kills Wibur as dinnerD.Charlotte is loving and helpful although she is ugly22.What is the disagreement about Charlotte’s Web between Hollywood filmmaker and White?A.How Charlotte makes friends with WiburB.How to make Charlotte lovelyC.Whether Charrlotte should dieD.Whether Wibur should be killed23.In the last paragraph, Charlotte’s main message is that _________A.life could be boring and troublesomeB.friendship is more important than lifeC.dying for a good cause is worthwhile(值得的)D.life is like a webBElizabeth and I are 18 now, and about to graduate. I think about our elementary school friendship, but some memories have blurred(模糊). What happened that day in the fifth grade when Beth suddenly stopped speaking to me? D oes she know that I’ve been thinking about her for seven years? If only we could go back, and discover what ended our relationship.I have to speak with Beth. I see her sometimes, and find out school is “fine”. It’s not the same. It nvever will be. Someone says that she’s Liz now. what happened to Beth?I can’t call her. Should I write? What if she doesn’t answer me? How will I know what she’s thinking?Yes, I’ll write her a letter. These things are easier to express in writing. “Dear Be-,” no, “Dea r Li-” no, “Dear Elizabeth,” I begin. The words flow freely, as seven-year-old memories are reborn. I ask her all the questions that have been left unanswered in my mind, and pray she will answer. I seal my thoughts in the perfect white envelope, and imagine Beth looking into the mailbox. Will she know why I’m writing? Maybe she once thought of writing the same letter.As the mailman takes my envelope from me forever, I wonder if I’ve made the right decision. Do I have the right to force myself into Bet h’s life again? Am I simply part of the past? I have taken the first stop. Beth has control of the situation now.One day has passed.

Packaging is the silent but persuading salesman.There on the shelves, each bottle, can ,box, and jar has been carefully designed and measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer, because he/she is buying not only a product but also his/her belief in life. Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect on the “quality” of the product and on how well it sells, because “consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products.”, as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers’ feelings for packaging, noticed.Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colours draw human attention quickly. Take V8 for example. For many years, the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that is it very good for your body. And the word“green” today can keep food prices going up.Shapes are another attraction. Circles often suggest happiness and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to both the eye an d the heart. That’s why the round yellow M signs of McDonald’s are inviting to both young and old.This new consumer response to the colors and shapes of packages reminds producers and sellers that people by to satisfy both body and soul.28.According to the passage, _____ seems to be able to persuade a consumer to buy the product.A.the pleasing color of the packageB. he special taste of the productC. the strange shape of the packageD. the belief in the product29.If a package or a product is round in shape, it can ____________.A. bring excitement to the consumersB. attract the consumers’ attentionC. catch the eye movement of the consumersD produce a happy and peaceful feeling30.“And the word green today can keep food prices going up ” This sentence suggests thatconsumers today are _________.A. starting to notice the importance of new foodB. enjoying the beauty of nature more than beforeC. beginning to like green vegetablesD. paying more attention to their health31.It can be inferred from the passage that V8 is a kind of ________.A vegetable dish B. healthy juice C. iced drink D red vegetableDTayka Hotel de SalWhere：Tahua，BoliviaHow much：About $95 a nightWhy it’s cool：You’ve stayed at hotels made of brick or wood，but salt？That’s something few can claim.Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt—including the beds (though you’ll sleep on regular mattresses(床垫) and blankets)．The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni，a prehistoric dried-up lake which is the world’s biggest salt flat.Builders use the salt from the 4,633-square-mile flat to make the bricks，and glue them together with a paste (糊) of wet salt that hardens when it dries.When rain starts to dissolve the hotel，the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.Green Magic Nature ResortWhere：Vythiri，IndiaHow much：About $240 a nightWhy it’s cool：Taking a pulley(滑轮)-operated lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure.As you look out of your open window—there is no glass！—you watch monkeys and birds in the rain forest canopy(罩篷)．Later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel，or just sit on your bamboo bed and read.You don’t even have to come down for breakfast—the hotel will send it up on the pulley-drawn “elevator”．Dog Bark Park Inn B&BWhere：Cottonwood，IdahoHow much：$92 a nightWhy it’s cool：This doghouse isn’t just for the family pet.Sweet_Willy is a 30-foot-tall dog with guest rooms in his belly.Climb the wooden stairs beside his hind leg to enter the door in his side.Youcan relax in the main bedroom，go up a few steps of the loft(阁楼) in Willy’s head，or hang out inside his nose.Although you have a full private bathroom in your quarters，there is also a toilet in the 12-foot-tall fire hydrant(消防栓) outside.Gamirasu Cave HotelWhere：Ayvali，TurkeyHow much：Between $130 and $475 a nightWhy it’s cool：This is caveman cool！Experience what it was like 5,000 years ago，when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash.But your stay will be much more modern.Bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel，and the white volcanic ash，called tufa，keeps the rooms cool，’t worry—there is heat in winter.)32．What do we know about Tayka Hotel de Sal?A．It is located on a prehistoric lake.B．It should be protected against the rain.C．Everything in the hotel is made of salt.D．You have to cross a rope bridge to the hotel.33．What is the similarity of the four hotels?A．Being expensive.B．Being comfortable.C．Being natural.D．Being unique.34．What does the underlined words “Sweet Willy” refer to?A．The name of the hotel.B．The name of the hotel owner.C．The building of Dog Bark Park Inn B&B.D．The name of a pet dog of the hotel owner.35．Which of the hotels makes you have a feeling of living in the far past?A．Tayka Hotel de Sal.B．Green Magic Nature Resort.C．Dog Bark Park Inn B&B.D．Gamirasu Cave Hotel.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
