ALast year, I was on a plane with my friend, waiting for it to take off. The pilot’s voice was heard throughout the plane: “Sorry for the delay, ladies and gentlemen. Our engines don’t work. We are going to jump-start them. Once we get them going, we’ll get up in the air and see what happens.”That was all he said. “See what happens? Shouldn’t we have had a better plan than that?” At that point, I could only laugh nervously. One woman started crying: “Oh, no! We are going to crash!” There are sighs of desperation and anxiety, and we hadn’t even taken off yet.The pilot even seemed unhappy. He told us our one engine was working double time, and his plan was to get up in the air and see what happens! Then we did. We got up in the air, and what happened? Nothing. We arrived in Norfolk, and no sooner had the wheels touched down than applause burst out as everyone on the airplane breathed a sigh of relief.All too often, people stop achieving their goals just because they don't have a guaranteed result. But success will never be guaranteed. The best thing that you can do is to just get up in the air, and see what happens.If your aim is to build a business, then get up in the air and see what happens! Don't give yourself all the reasons why you can’t. Do not wait until you have everything you need. You never will.If your goal is to start a friendship, say “Hello”, get up in the air and see what happens! The results could be very rewarding. If your goal is to learn a new skill, get up in the air and see what happens! It might not be as difficult as you think. It could be fun!1. H ow did the author feel when the pilot said the engines didn’t work?A. DisappointedB. AnxiousC. CuriousD. Relieved2. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The passengers began crying after the plane took off.B. The engines often worked double time to get started.C. The pilot tried to comfort the nervous passengers.D. The passengers reached the destination safe and sound.3. The underlined sentences in the last paragraph means “______________”.A. think carefully before you make friends.B. start to fly the plane to see what will happen.C. make an effort even if the result is uncertain.D. get up from the chair and greet somebody.4. What can be the best title for the passage?A. We Will See What HappensB. I Survived an Adventurous FlightC. The Pilot Risked Our LivesD. Making Plans Is Better Than Taking ChancesBIt was a comfortable sunny Sunday. I was going to meet an old university friend I hadn't seen for years, and was really excited to hear all his news.My train was running a little late, but that was no big problem - I could text him to say I would be delayed. He would understand. But… where was my mobile phone?I had that familiar sinking feeling. Yes, I'd forgotten it at home.No mobile phone. I'm sure I'm not alone in feeling anxious, on edge and worried when I don't have my phone with me. In fact, I know I'm not alone: two-thirds of us experience ‘nomophobia’, the fear of being out of mobile phone contact. That's according to a study from 2012 which surveyed 1,000 people in the UK about their relationship with mobile phones.It says we check our mobile phones 34 times a day, that women are more ‘nomophobic’ than men, and that 18-24 year-olds are the most likely to suffer fear of being without their mobiles: 77% of them say they are unable to be apart from their phones for more than a few minutes.Do you have nomophobia ?• You never turn your phone off• You obsessively (着魔地) check for texts, missed calls and emails• You always take your phone to the bathroo m with you• You never let the battery run outIt's funny to think that around 20 years ago the only people with mobile phones would be businessperson carrying their large, plastic ‘bricks’. Of course, these days, mobile phones are everywhere. A UN study from this year said mobile phone subscriptions(订购;订阅) would outnumber(数量上压倒) people across the world by the end of 2014.And when there are more phones than people in the world, maybe it's time to ask who really is in charge? Are you in control of your phone, or does your phone control you?So, what happened with my university friend? When I arrived a few minutes late he just laughed and said: "You haven't changed at all – still always late!" And we had a great afternoon catching up, full of jokes and stories, with no interruptions and no nagging(唠叨的) desire to check my phone.Not having it with me felt strangely liberating(自由). Maybe I'll leave it at home on purpose next time.5. What does the passage talk about ?A. The history of mobiles.B. The story of meeting an old university friend.C. The addiction of playing mobile phone.D. The terrible feeling of being without their mobiles.6. The underlined phrase “on edge”in the third paragraph probably means_______.A. nervousB. energeticC. crazyD. surprised7. Which word is used to describe old mobile phones according to the passage?A. digital phoneB. cell phoneC. bricksD. smart phone8. According to the passage who is most likely to be addicted to mobiles ?A. A successful managerB. A 21-year-old girlC. A 21-year-old boyD. A lonely middle-aged personCWhen people introduce themselves, I always hear them say "I'm just a housewife".I don't understand why their introduction is always filled with regret and self - pity. Is it really a crime to be a housewife? Is it really embarrassing when you choose not to work outside and instead choose to work in your home?How could you be "just a housewife" when the basic social unit of society depends on you and your service? A housewife works for the longest hour, supporting your husband, child studies, caring for elders, managing finances, paying bills, grocery shopping, cooking according to individual taste, cleaning, etc. A housewife could be anyone: daughter, wife, mother, teacher, financial adviser, fashion designer and nurse, gardener, driver, cook, and so on. Don't think you are not being paid for it. You get the reward that no money can offer — the love and affection of your family, their trust in you, a happy home and your own satisfaction.It is you who choose to be in this occupation, willingly or for any other reason. After a busy day, all wait to return to the comfortable home set by you. They know you will be there to absorb all their stress and tiredness and relax them. Would the life have been the same had you been working outside to earn some money? Wouldyou along with your family have been able to buy all the content in life that you are enjoying now with that money?Respect yourself for what you are. Introduce yourself to the world with the same dignity. The world understands the importance of your job; it's time to make them accept it. Introduce yourself with pride and with twinkle in your eyes "I am a housewife". Kick that "just" out.9. How do people feel when they say "I'm just a housewife"?A. Satisfied.B. Proud.C. Regretful.D. Anxious.10. Listing the housewife's duties,the author implies a housewife______________.A. usually leads a terrible lifeB. plays a more important roleC. does not always get her rewardD. makes a great contribution to the family11.

Try to make others understand their life.DTHE BOOKING NOTES OF THE PLAY THE AGE OF INNOCENCE:Price: $10BOOKINGThere are four easy ways to book seats for performance:------ In personThe Box Office is open Monday to Saturday, 10 a. m. -8 p. m.------ By telephoneRing 01324976 to reserve your tickets or to pay by credit card(Visa, MasterCard and Amex accepted)------ By postSimply complete the booking form and return it to Global Theatre Box Office.------ On lineComplete the on-line booking form at www.

AACADEMIC ACTIVITIES AND LEARNING TRIPSNACA (Native American Community Academy) involves students in academic activities and learning trips in order to strengthen the classroom learning experience. Some examples of our commitment to academic activities include:☆ Student DemonstrationsAt the end of every school year, NACA celebrates student learning and growth through Student Demonstrations. Each student chooses a project that reflects their best work and demonstrates it publicly for family and community members. Through this process students also practice the skills of giving a proper introduction, sharing content knowledge, making a personal connection, bettering their visual and oral presentation skills and interacting with their community.☆ Student CouncilStudent Council is a group of peer-elected representatives. They serve as leaders of their grade level and promote NACA Core Values. They model positive relationships among each other and staff. Student Council will facilitate school wide events to foster school spirit.☆ Potential Leaders Development Trip to Washington DCEvery summer, about thirty 8th grade students take part in a Potential Leaders Development. A trip to Washington DC is an important opportunity that promotes youth leadership for students while engaging them on a deeper academic level. It provides an experience-based understanding of the endless opportunities that higher education can provide and encourages the pursuit of academic success. Students who attend this trip are greatly impacted, long for completing their high school education in a more focused and determined manner and begin making plans for college. The trip also creates awareness of the significance of Washington DC/US government and importance of government to government relationships.1.What’s the aim of NACA trips?A. To equip students with social experience.B. To help students strengthen what they learn in class.C. To promote the awareness of protecting nature.D. To help students with learning difficulties to catch up.2.How does NACA celebrate the end of a school year?A. By organizing trips for students to Washington DC.B. By choosing model students for their good relationships.C. By getting students to present their best work publicly.D. By making personal connections with the community.3.What does the passage say about Trip to Washington DC?A. Its participants are future leaders of all fields.B. Its teachers are all experts at presentation skills.C. It sets models for students to socialize in real life.D. It aims to inspire students for higher education.BNow many young people are traveling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He says he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30-year-old man.Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”, which “makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything”. He said, “The feeling of having overcome something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said, “Only by going alon e in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”4.Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?A. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.C. It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.D. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.5.Traveling alone is challenging because ________.A. you have to make things on your ownB. it is hard for you to prove yourself to othersC. you can only depend on yourself whatever happensD. it will finally build your character6.What can we infer about Chris Richardson?A. He started traveling alone at an early age. B. He was once shot in the arm. C. He used to work as a salesman. D. His website inspires others a lot. 7.What is the best title for the passage?A. Travel Abroad B. Travel Alone C. Travel Light D. Travel Wide and FarCWhat do you usually do to comfort your friends when they are feeling sad or depressed?You probably pat them on the back or shoulder,or maybe you give them a big,warm hug.We used to think that knowing when and how to comfort others was an ability that only humans have.But scientists have discovered that apes(猩猩)have this ability,too,according to a study published in the Journal of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.Two researchers from Emory University in Atlanta,US,went to an Ape Protection Centre in Congo to study bonobos(倭黑猩猩),which are closely related to humans.The researchers analyzed the bonobos' reactions after more than 370 cases of stressful situations,such as fights and losing temper,and found that some bonobos rushed to hug those that were screaming after being attacked,just like humans would have done.However,researchers noted that not all bonobos were capable of comforting others.In the protection centre,many bonobos are orphans whose mothers were killed by hunters.They were found to be more anxious in times of tension and have greater difficulty controlling their own emotions,making them worse at reaching out to help friends in need.“Orphans,who have not had the benefit of a mother helping them handling their emotions,are much worse at comforting others,”Professor Frans de Waal,one of the researchers,told The Telegraph.“Bonobos with moms were able to curb their negative emotional reactions more quickly.Therefore,they pay more attention to others.”This pattern mirrors the way that human children have been found to react.Those who seem more capable of handling their own emotions—for example,the ones who can calm themselves down more quickly after upsetting experiences—are usually better at expressing their concerns for others.8.The 5th paragraph is mainly developed by________.A. making comparisons B. following time orderC. giving examples D. presenting causes and effects9.The underlined word“curb”in the 6th paragraph probablymeans“________”.A. express B. observe C. hide D. control 10.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Orphan bonobos never give a hand to friends.B. There were 370 bonobos involved in the research.C. Moms play a significant role in handling kids' emotions.D. The ability to comfort others is unique to human beings.11.What's the main purpose of this passage?A. To provide better protection for Apes. B. To inform readers of a new study. C. To uncover the mystery of Apes. D. To compare human behaviors with Apes'.DA new course on world heritage and its conservation offers a good opportunity for the young people to learn about the legacy(遗产) of humanity and gain a sense of responsibility to help protect the planet we live on.According to a world heritage education programme jointly launched by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and China's Ministry of Education, the course will first be offered at several schools in Beijing before being included as a mandatory course (必修课) for high school studentsnationwide.The new course covers photos, slide shows and documentaries on the magnificence of the world heritage sites. The class aims to tell children what world heritage is and why and how it should be protected. A total of 177 nations, including China, have signed the Convention Concerning the Protection of World Cultural and Natural Heritage. Listed are 754 sites all over the world, of which 29 are in China—the third most after Spain and Italy. Currently, protection of the country's cultural and natural resources leaves much to be desired. Education is undoubtedly the best way to cultivate people's sense for protecting cultural and natural resources. The introduction of such a programme in Chinese classrooms will certainly help our young people realize the significance of common heritage, learning about world heritage sites, the history and traditions of different cultures, ecology, and the importance of protecting biological and cultural diversity.More importantly, it will help cultivate a sense of responsibility in the minds of young participants. This is critical in protecting these cultural and natural legacies, as well as our living environment and the limited resources for sustainable development.12.Which of the statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. The world heritage education programme was jointly launched by the United States and China's Ministry of Education.B. The course will first be offered at all the schools in Beijing.C. Protection of the country's cultural and natural resources has been perfect thanks to people's efforts.D. China ranks high among the countries with 29 sites listed on the list. 13.What can you expect to learn at the class?A. What world heritage is. B. Why we should protect world heritage. C. How world heritage should be protected. D. All of the above.14.The underlined word "cultivate" in the third paragraph probably means " ".A. distribute B. exploit C. develop D. improvise15.What's the purpose of the passage?A. To inform us of the reason for protecting the heritage.B. To tell us the way to protect the heritage.C. To tell us a new course.D. To tell us heritage preservation starts with education.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。

AVisiting Joshua Tree National Park, CaliforniaJoshua Tree National Park is nearly 800,000 acres (英亩) large and surrounds parts of the Mojave and Colorado Deserts in South-central California. Although deserted at first sight, the park is full of wildlife and provides a variety of entertainment activities from hiking to climbing. Within a three-hour drive, Joshua Tree National Park takes at least a full day to visit.Things to doHiking opportunities within the park include several choices, from 12 self-guided nature routines to all-day back-country hikes.Joshua Tree NP has nine camping grounds, and back-country camping is also allowed.Rock climbing is a popular activity in the park, which has 10 mountains greater than 5, 000 feet in height.When to visitJoshua Tree NP is open 365 days a year, although the best time to visit is October through April, when temperature is milder.

There are guides for nature trails.B. The camping fees at the nine camping grounds are different.C. Tourists can easily visit the whole park within a day.D. Tourists must take park and trail maps with them when they visit the parkBMy First Marathon(马拉松)A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn't do either well. He later informed me that I was "not athletic".The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!At mile 3, I passed a sign: "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!"By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.By mile 21, I was starving!As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a "marathon winner".4. A month before the marathon, the author ____________.A. was well trainedB. felt scaredC. lost hopeD. made up his mind to run5. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year?A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher.B. To amuse the readers with a funny story.C. To share a precious memory.D. To show he was not talented in sports.6. How was the author's first marathon?A. He made it.B. He quit halfway.C. He got the first prize.D. He walked to the end.7. What does the story mainly tell us?A. A man owes his success to his family support.B. Failure is the mother of success.C. A winner is one with a great effort of will.D. One is never too old to learn.CThe meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, or worry. Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable; therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap(间隙) with conversation. Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person's needs.Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops, what maybe implied(暗示) is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing. In these cultures, silence is a call for reflection.Other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. For example, Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion. However, Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. In still another use, persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in authority.Nurses and other care-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing. Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient’s silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily. A nurse who understands the healing(治愈) value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures.8.What does the author say about silence in conversations?A. It implies anger.B. It promotes friendship.C. It is culture-specific.D. It is content-based.9.Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought?A. The Chinese.B. The French.C. The Mexicans.D. The Russians.10.What does the author advise nurses to do about silence?A. Let it continue as the patient pleases.B. Break it while treating patients.C. Evaluate its harm to patients.D. Make use of its healing effects.11.What may be the best title for the text?A. Sound and SilenceB. What It Means to Be SilentC. Silence to Native AmericansD. Speech Is Silver; Silence Is GoldDIf we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago,we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history.Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war.Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write.For example,we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago,because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them.But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in Central Africa,because they had not learned to write.Sometimes,of course,even if the people cannot write,they may know something of the past.They have heard about it from older people,and often songs, dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung,acted and told for many generations,for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past.This we may call “remembered history”.Some of it had been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is,because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing.But where there are no written records,such spoken stories are often very helpful.12. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?A. “Remembered history” , compared with written history, is 1ess reliable.B. Where there are no written records of the past, there is no history.C. A written account of our daily activities helps us to remember the events thathappened in the past.D. Written records of the past play a most important role in our learning the humanhistory.13. Why do we know little about what happened in Central Africa 200 years ago?A. People there had not known how to write in those days.B. There was nothing worth being written down at that time.C. The written records were perhaps destroyed in a fire.D. People there ignored the importance of keeping a record.14. “Remembered history” is regarded as valuable only when .A. it is writtendownB. it proves to be trueC. people are interested in itD. no written account is available15. It can be inferred from the passage that we could have learned much more about our past than we donow if our ancestors had .A. told exact stories of the most important happeningsB. not burnt their written records in warsC. kept a written record of every past eventD. made more songs and dances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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

ASmart Cameras to Help You Take Better PhotosGoogle ClipsOne of the latest to launch (发布) is Google Clips. It is designed to be put somewhere in a room to take pictures by itself.

Interested buyers can join a waiting list to be informed when it is on the market.GoPro HeroGoPro also uses machine learning to power its QuikStories characteristic. This tool takes existing photos and videos and automatically (自动地) creates a finished video piece, complete with music and effects.Snap SpectaclesMessaging app Snapchat sells a pair of sunglasses with a built-in camera that can record short videos with the push of a button. Snap Inc. says the product, called Spectacles, is designed to "catch the moment, without taking you out of it."The glasses can record short video clips that can be shared with Snapchat users. Snap Inc. has started selling its Spectacles sunglasses online in the United States.Apple iPhone XApple's new iPhone X is being launched with its new Face ID system that it says will unlock the phone just by having the user look at it. This replaces the TouchID on previous ones that used a fingerprint to unlock the phone.Apple says the system works by projecting more than 30,000 dots on the face to create a kind of map. Apple says its facial recognition is even secure enough to allow payments through its Apple Pay service.21. What is the special function of Google Clips?A. It can play videos by itself.B. It can take pictures automaticallyC. .It can change photos into videos.D. It can provide music and effects.22. Which of the following can now be bought on the Internet?A. Google ClipsB. GoPro HeroC. Snap SpectaclesD. Apple iPhone X23. How is Apple iPhone X unlocked?A. By facial recognition.B. By a fingerprint.C. By pushing a button.D. By making a map.BIt is generally accepted these days that reading a book will help you relieve stress. And it may actually make you a more thoughtful person as you learn to connect with the various characters. But there’s more. A new study discovered that reading more than 3.5 hours per week actually increased a person’s lifespan(寿命)by 23 percent — about 12 years for the people involved in the study.The study was led by a group of researchers at Yale University. It looked at 3,635 people, both men and women but all older than 50. The researchers divided them into three categories: those who didn’t read books; those who read up to 3.5 hours a week; those who read more than 3.5 hours a week.After the researchers adjusted for factors like education, health and income, the data showed that, on average, those who read about 3.5 hours a week were 17 percent less likely to die.In addition, the study examined people who read newspapers and magazines and found that they were 11 percent less likely to die than non-readers, but only if theyspent more than seven hours reading each week. That may be due to the different forms of these items. When people read newspapers or magazines, they tend to skim the material rather than read it fully. Avni Bavishi, the study’s leader, said, “We believe people need to know, learn and understand more things when they are reading books, beca use they’re longer and there are more characters, more plots to follow, and more connections to make.”From all of this, the authors concluded that, as with a healthy diet and exercise, books appear to promote a “significant survival advantage.”Clearly, there is a need for more study. We’re certain that book lovers all around the world will be glad to provide the data needed to make further conclusions.24. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. A few people think that reading can help them relax.B. Reading can make a person more sensitive.C. Reading can help a person to live a longer life.D. Most people think that reading can help them to live a better life.25. What can we learn about the people in the study from the text?A. All of them were older than fifty.B. Most of them were women readers.C. More than half of them were college students.D. They were divided into four groups by the researchers.26. Generally speaking, those who read newspapers and magazines ______ than those who readbooks.A. live longerB. are more likely to be positiveC. have a better ability to understandD. get fewer benefits in terms of the lifespanCDid you know that the Navy trained dolphins to find mines(地雷) which often blow up? Apparently, it was a cost-effective method; now, the Navy are preparing to replacethe dolphins with robots, not because they were doing a bad job or because they want to do a more human job, but because, guess what? Robots are more cost effective.Not particularly known for being humans, they’re also not planning to release or retire the dolphins, but they’re considering what other jobs they could be assigned to — probably some just as dangerous.“Everyone is familiar with security patrol dogs. You may even know that because of their exceptionally keen sense of smell, dogs like beagles are also used to detect (发现)drugs and bombs, or land mines. But a dog would not be effective in finding a sea mine,” reads the Navy’s site. “But just as the dog’s keen sense of smell makes it ideal for detecting land mines, the U.S. Navy has found that the biological sonar(声呐) of dolphins, called echolocation, makes them uniquely effective at locating sea mines so they can be avoi ded or removed.”The Navy will now equip underwater robots which will do the same job at a bigger distance, without needing constant rest and manned monitor. I, for one, hope the dolphins will be given a break and assigned to a safer task.27. Why will robots take the place of dolphins to find mines?A. Because dolphins do very bad jobs.B. Because dolphins are endangered animals.C. Because scientists want to be friendly to dolphins.D. Because using robots is cheaper.28. Dogs can be used to detect drugs due to ______.A. excellent sense of smellB. higher IQ compared with dolphinsC. echolocationD. biological sonar29. The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refers to ______.A. security patrol dogsB. dolphinsC. sea minesD. the US Navy30.What is the main idea of the passage?A. Robots are going to take the place of dolphins to find mines.B. Dolphins are good at finding mines.C. Robots are welcome by humans because of their efficiency.D. Compared to security patrol dogs, dolphins do well in finding sea mines.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。

To introduce special exhibits.D. To tell about the Center's history.BI first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn't want me for the film-it wanted somebody as well known as Paul-he stood up for me. I don't know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft(技艺)and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors:humorous,aggressive,and making fun of each other-but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core (核心)of our relationship off the screen.We shared the belief that if you're fortunate enough to have success,you should put something back-he with his Newman's Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn't see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.I last saw him a few months ago. He'd been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal was, and we didn't talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn't need a lot of words.24.Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to the author at first?A. Paul Newman wanted it.B. The studio powers didn't like his agent.C. He wasn't famous enough.D. The director recommended someone else.25.Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?A. They were of the same age.B. They worked in the same theater.C. They were both good actors.D. They had similar characteristics.26.What does the underlined word "that" in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Their belief.B. Their care for children.C. Their success.D. Their support for each other.27.What is the author's purpose in writing the test?A. To show his love of films.B. To remember a friend.C. To introduce a new movie.D. To share his acting experience.CAs you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now!With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future. You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine!Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you.Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. You will probably want to be independent. But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself. Your family have been with you since you came into this world.It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens. This period is part of the life cycle. There are some people who will be with you throughout lifeˈs journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again.You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices. So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely!28.The best title for this passage would be ________.A. The Choices in LifeB. The Key to SuccessC. Say Goodbye to the PastD. Becoming a Young Adult29.Who do the underlined words “some people” (Paragraph 4)probably mean?A. your parentsB. your classmatesC. true friendsD. your relatives30.As far as the author is concerned, teenage years are___.A. a period of complete freedomB. too hard for young people to get throughC. an important time for the young to make the right choicesD. a very important period for young students to leave their parents31.Who is the passage mainly intended for?A. Teenagers.B. Teachers.C. Young parentsD. Adults.DReading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website BookCrossing. com BookCrossing. com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both. ”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E﹣mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the“real”and not the virtual (虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty﹣five countries.32.Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A. To explain what they are.B. To introduce BookCrossing.C. To stress the importance of reading.D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.33.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The book.B. An adventure.C. A public place.D. The identification number.34.What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A. Meet other readers to discuss it.B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.C. Pass it on to another reader.D. Mail it back to its owner.35.What is the best title for the text?A. Online Reading:A Virtual TourB. Electronic Books:A new TrendC. A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD. A Website Links People through Books.第二节(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15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。

AFinding a summer job often shows that you’re growing up, and it’s also a way to earn money to pay for what you dream of. It’s never too early to start considering the future. Now, here are some good choices for you!Retail (零售) SalesRetail offers plenty of chances for teens who are looking for a job. This type of work can pay from $ 10 to $ 15 an hour depending on the duty you are expected to take on. For more information, call us at 4005075.Food ServiceA job in the food service industry is a natural fit for sociable teens who enjoy communicating with the public.

Just call 4005077 for more information.Babysitter (保姆)This job requires someone who is highly responsible. Though it pays generally between $ 6 and $ 8 hourly, it also requires a lot of patience.

If a teen wants to learn how to keep public organized, he/she may call .A. 4005075B. 4005077C. 4005076D. 4005079BOne form of social prejudice against older people is the belief that they cannot understand or use modern technology. Activities like playing computer games, going o n the Net and downloading MP3s are only for the youngsters. Isn’t it unfair that older people enjoying a computer game should be frowned(皱眉)upon by their children and grandchildren?Nowadays older people have more control over their lives and they play a full part in society. Moreover, better health care has left more people in their sixties and seventies feeling fit and active after retirement. Mental activity, as well as physical exercise, can contribute to better health. Playing computer games is a very effective way of exercising the brain.When personal computers were first introduced, most older people didn’t believe they would ever familiarize themselves with it. Now computers have been around for a few generations and retired people have gradually become more relaxed about using them for fun. Gamers over 65 prefer playing puzzle games and card games. Kate Stevens, aged 72, says: 揑 find it very relaxing. It’s not very demanding, but you still need to concentrate.”Another development that has favored 揼rey games? is a change in the type of videogames available on the market. There’s a greater variety of games to choose from, including more intellectual and complex strategy(策略)and simulation(模拟)games. Internet Chess and Train Simulator are among the most popular of these. Train Simulator is based on real-world rail activities. Players can choose from a variety of challengers, such as keeping to a strict-timetable and using helper engines during a winter storm.Some people argue that 揼rey gamers? simply don’t have the skills required for computer games, and that teenagers are better. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Most computer games require the kind of analytical thinking that improves with practice, which means that the 揼rey gamers may well be far better than gamers halfa century younger than them.24. The second paragraph is intended to ________.A. show the best way to exercise the brainB. stress the importance of good healthC. explain why grey gamers existD. teach how to play videogames25. What was older people’s attitude towards their using personal com puters at first?A. DoubtfulB. IndifferentC. EnthusiasticD. Supportive26.

About 6 percent said they are targeted by bul lies on campus every day. The survey also found that students from ordinary schools experienced morebullying than peers from key institutions, and children from poor families are more likely to be bullied at school.Being bullied can have a negative impact on a child’s personal development and academic performance, according to Zhou Jinyan, a researcher who led the study at Beijing Normal University. 揅hildren being bullied will find it hard to trust others,? Zhou said. 揟hey may often feel anxiety, anger, resentment or depression. These emotions will further undermine their ability to control their own life.”In recent years, bullying on Chinese campuses has been frequently reported and has attracted widespread attention and concern. The most recent incident to arouse heated discussions took place in December at Beijing’s Zhongguancun No.2 Primary School. A fourth-grade student was bullied and laughed at by classmates, causing him acute stress disorder.The Supreme People’s Procuratorate (最高人民检察院) received about 1,900 cases related to school bullying in 2016. Meanwhile, there was a notable increase in bullying reports involving middle school students from 14 to 18 years old.Zhou came up with some ways to solve the problem, including boosting communication between teachers, parents and students and trying to establish more harmonious relationships among children. She said it was strongly suggested that parents try to be involv ed in their children’s educational experience, as their presence and companionship have proved effective in reducing bullying and its negative effects.28.Who is the most likely to become the target of bullying?A. A 10-year-old boy from a poor familyB. A 17-year-old boy from a rich familyC. A 17-year-old girl from an ordinary schoolD.

Negative effects on children caused by bullyingB. Is anything we can do about bullying?C. The reasons for bullying on campusD. Bullying affects half of the studentsDA typical lion tamer (驯兽师) in people’s mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭子)and a chair. The whip get all of the attention, but it’s mostly for show. In reality, it’s the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion’s face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided , the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achiever (e,g. lose weight, start a business, travel more ) –only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress ?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we’re focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less progress, and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn’t have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing. You just needto get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you w ant to accomplish, someone you want to become ?.take immediate action. If you’re clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out the way . 32.Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A. To trick the lion.B. To show off his skill .C. To get ready for a fight.D. To entertain the audience.33.In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A. They feel puzzled over choices.B. They hold on to the wrong things.C. They find it hard to make changes.D. They have to do something for show.34.What is the author’s attitude towards the experts mentioned in paragraph 3? A. TolerantB. DoubtfulC. RespectfulD. Supportive35.When the world is 搘aving a chair in your face?, you’re advised to_____. A. wait for a better chanceB. break your old habitsC. Concentrate on your goalD. ask for clear guidance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。

——————————教育资源共享步入知识海洋————————2019年高二上学期第二次月考英语试卷第I卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。
ATears ran down from my eyes as I saw the essay my high school English teacher had just handed back. A big F was written on top. I was hopeless. I was stupid! My face burned with shame when my classmates called me stupid.“I’m the only one who doesn’t know my ABCs!” I sobbed to Mom.“I’ll help,” she promised.Every day I sat with her, but to me, cat looked like cta and red was reb. Frustrated(感到挫败的), I would return to my bedroom and draw, filling the paper with houses, restaurants and offices.“When I grow up, I want my own store,” I told Mom, pointing to my drawings.“That’s great!” she said, “but first you have to learn to read.”Later, I was diagnosed with dyslexia (失读症). So Mom took me to a learning centre, where I was given reading exercises. But I still had a hard time. Finally, I graduated, but I was afraid of my reading skills.“I’ll never get a job!” I cried to Mom later again.“Don’t focus on what you can’t do,” she comforted, “Concentrate on what you really can.”But what can I do? I wondered. Suddenly, I thought of the drawings I’d made as a child and my dream of having my own store. I enjoyed sales so much that over the next few years, I tried my hand at other businesses. Today, I watch over seven branches. We have 187 employees and $15 million in sales.While I’ll never be what my teachers might have wanted, I am a success--on my own terms. The other day a student sent me a card, reading: You gave me so much confidence. I hope to be like you when I am big. Tears of joy filled my eyes. This was my A, and I smiled.1. Why did the author feel so ashamed at school?A. His teacher ignored him in class.B. His teacher didn’t grade his essay.C. He failed to finish his essay in time.D. His classmates looked down upon him.2. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling to his mother?A. Grateful.B. Guilty(内疚的).C. Doubtful.D. Regretful.3. Which of the following can match the text?A. No pains, no gains.B. Never too old to learn.C. Every man has his value.D. Two heads are better than one.BChinese scientists report they have made a simple printer that uses water instead of ink. The printed characters last for a day on special paper, which can then be reused.“Every time you print it’s fresh,” said Professor Zhang at Jilin University in Changchun, China. “We are using an inkjet printer(喷墨打印机). We just fill the cartridges (墨盒) with water and put it back. It’s like normal printing. The magic is in the paper.”Printing typically involves large amounts of waste paper and expensive ink to prepare documents often read only once. This new method allows the paper to be reused numerous times at possibly cheaper running costs.Zhang and his team developed a special coating(涂层) on the paper that responds to the water. So far, they have been able to print various Chinese and English characters using four colors, with water as a key that activate the dye molecule (染料分子). The next step is to combine colors to get black. The possibility of reusing paper instead of throwing it away is rousing interest, according to Kia Barton, an expert in high-performance printing technology.“Going toward greener techniques of printing is helpful,” Baton said, “For standard typing, I think it’s an interesting idea and something worth exploring.”Zhang foresees advances in printing technology that will allow users to have entire newspapers or magazines printed at home with paper that could be recycled over and over again. Based on 10 yuan per sheet of water-jet paper, Zhang estimates the cost at one-seventeenth the present price of inkjet printing.That may not be cheap enough, however.“Technology for making rewritable paper is exciting as a new approach for avoiding the problem of single-use paper,” said Norman Marsolan. “Because the present paper products are inexpensive, however, this new technology will have to be cost-competitive, even if it can be rewritten may times.”4. Compared with traditional printing, the new tech ______.A. is more paper-savingB. attracts more usersC. uses a special printerD. produces longer-lasting characters.5. The under lined word “estimates” in Paragraph 7 means ______.A. reducesB. valuesC. checksD. controls6. Marsolan is more concerned about the new tech’s ______.A. effect on human lifeB. printing performanceC. typing problemsD. cost advantage7. What can be the best title of the text?A. The Rising Cost of InkB. The Importance of Reusing PaperC. New Ink-less Tech Prints with WaterD. The Magic of PaperCI came to Rio, Brazil to work one year ago. So what have I found here?●You need to learn PortugueseI started studying Portuguese about two years ago. I didn’t end up improving my Portuguese as much as I’d hoped before I came here. While Spanish and Portuguese are structurally quite similar, there are huge differences between the two. You can’t just magically understand Brazilians if you speak Spanish.●I didn’t need to bring heelsGoing out in cities like Buenos Aires is a big deal. You get dressed up, you do your hair, and you definitely wear heels--at least if you’re going out to dance.I had no idea how wrong I was. Yes, Rio is a city, but it’s a city on the beach. Of course, there are fancy clubs that probably expect everyone to show up in dress shoes(时装鞋), but most of the places I’ve been to are fine with sneakers(运动鞋), even for dancing.●Learning about pop music is a mustWhenever I go out and a pop song comes on, every single other person there sings along to all the words. I still haven’t understood if there are only 25 songs that get played in public or if people really do just have a fantastic memory for lyrics, but either way, I wish I’d spent a bit more time practicing Brazilian pop music soI wouldn’t look like such a lost foreigner.●Airplanes are a surprisingly sensitive subjectIn Brazil, the credit for modern flight goes to Alberto Santos Dumont. Brazilians say the Wright Brothers’use of a catapult(飞机弹射器) was technically cheating and point to their man as the real pioneer of the plane. Therefore, be careful before bringing up the subject of planes in Brazil unless you’re re ady for a lecture.8. What language do Brazilians speak?A. SpanishB. PortugueseC. EnglishD. French9. What can we infer about Brazilians?A. They are fond of dancing.B. They understand Spanish.C. They are informally dressed.D. They have a good memory.10. What topic should you avoid in Rio?A. The history of planes.B. Dressing styles.C. Pop music.D. Spanish.11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To tell us something about Portugal.B. To share her life in Rio as a foreigner.C. To give foreigners in Rio some suggestions.D. To encourage us to learn a foreign language.DA schoolgirl saved her father’s life by kicking him in the chest after he suffered a serious allergic(过敏的) reaction which stopped his heart.Izzy, nine, restarted father Colm’s heart by stamping(踩) on his chest after he fell down at home and stopped breathing.Izzy’s mother, Debbie, immediately called 999 but Izzy knew doctors would never arrive in time to save her father, so decided to use CPR.However, she quickly discovered her arms weren’t strong enough, so she stamped on her father’s chest instead.Debbie then took over with some more conventional(常见的) chest compressions(按压) until the ambulance arrived.Izzy, who has been given a bravery award by her school, said:“I just kicked him really hard. My mum taught me CPR but I knew I wasn’t strong enough to use hands.I was quite scared. The doctor said I might as well be a doctor or a nurse. My mum said that Dad was going to hospital with a big footprint on his chest.”“She’s a little star,” said Debbie. “I was really upset but Izzy just took over.I just can’t believe what she did. I really think all children should be taught first aid. Izzy did CPR then the doctor turned up. Colm had to have more treatment on the way to the hospital and we’ve got to see an expert.”Truck driver Colm, 35, suffered a mystery allergic reaction on Saturday and was taken to hospital, but was sent home only for it to happen again the next day. Thesecond attack was so serious that his airway swelled(气道肿胀), preventing him from breathing, his blood pressure dropped suddenly, and his heart stopped for a moment.He has now made a full recovery from his suffering.12. Izzy kicked her father in the chest _______.A. to express her helplessnessB. to practice CPR on himC. to keep him awakeD. to restart his heart13. What’s the right order of the events?① Izzy kicked Colm.② Debbie called 999.③ Izzy learned CPR.④ Colm’s heart stoppedA.③①②④B.④②③①C.③④②①D.④③①②14. What does Paragraph 8 mainly talk about?A. What Colm suffered.B. Colm's present condition.C. What caused Colm’s allergy.D. Symptoms of Colm’s allergic reaction.15. Why does the author write the news?A. To describe a serious accident.B. To prove the importance of CPR.C. To report a 9-year-old girl’s brave act.D. To call people’s attention to allergic reaction.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。

It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theater’s location(位置) was also a reason. "This used to be the center of town," he said. "Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses."Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater had shown its last movie. The theater will be missed.4. In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?A. It made room for new equipment.B. It signaled the closedown of the theater.C. It was done with the help of the audience.D. It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.5. Why was The Last Picture Show put on?A.

It will be repaired.B. It will be turned into a museum.C. It will be knocked down.D. It will be sold to the city government.7. What can we infer about the audience?A. They are disappointed with Bradford.B. They are sad to part with the old theater.C. They are supportive of the city officials.D. They are eager to have a shopping center.CSpring is a wonderful season to celebrate rebirth and new life. The long,cold winter is over. The weather is warmer and sunnier. The trees again have leaves and the flowers are blooming. The season represents hope,joy and beauty. At this time,many people think of this classical music piece—Spring,which shows happiness. Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi wrote it in the seventeen hundreds.However,not all songs about spring are happy. This song written and sung by K.D. Lang is about dreaming of spring in cold dark places. She recorded I Dream of Spring in 2008.Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein wrote It Might as Well Be Spring for the movie State Fair in 1945.Frank Sinatra sings it. It is a feeling of restlessness or excitement brought on by the coming of spring. Richard Rodgers also wrote Spring Is Here,this time with Lorenz Hart. Ella Fitzgerald sings this song about feeling lonely during this season.Frank Loesser wrote the sad song,Spring Will Be a Little Late This Year. Why has the season been delayed? Because the singer's lover has left her. Sarah Vaughn released(发行) her version of the song in 1953.By now you may be thinking,“Enough with the sad songs,already!”OK,then how about a cowboy song? Gene Autry was one of the America's most famous singing cowboys.He recorded When It's Springtime in the Rockies in 1937.And finally,we'll leave you with a sunny song called Up Jumped Spring. Freddie Hubbard wrote this jazz song in 1977 and Billy Taylor Trio performs it.8. If you are in a bad mood,you'd better listen to________.A.Up Jumped SpringB.I Dream of SpringC.Spring Is HereD.Spring Will Be a Little Late This Year9.

Sometimes you get the interview, but don't quite seem to land the job because you don't have related experience. Don't despair! Here are a few tips that might give you an edge.★ Get connected to your network and try to expand it. Talk to friends, family and acquaintances. Let everyone know you are looking for a job.★ Prepare your resume (个人简历) carefully and be sure it's perfect. Have someone else read it over for typos (打字错误) and grammatical errors. Get professional help. It's worth the money to present yourself well. If money is tight, read books on resume writing from your public library or search for free help on the Internet.★ When you apply for a job, be sure you match and list any skills listed on the posting with the skills you have. If you get an interview, be sure to describe those skills thoroughly. Just having the skills is not enough.

I got a taste of that dream in 2001, when my husband arranged for me to ride in a hot air balloon for my birthday. But the experience turned out to be very dull. Around that time, I told my husband that I wanted to skydive. So when our retirement community(社区)announced that they were having an essay competition and the topic was an experience of a lifetime that you wanted to have, I decided to write about my dream.In the essay, I wrote about my desire to skydive, stating George Brush Sr. did it at age 80. Why not me? I was just 84 and in pretty good health. A year went by and I heard nothing. But then at a community party in late April 2009, they announced that I was one of the winners. I just couldn’t believe it. Inspired by this. I decided to realize my dream, even though some of my family members and my doctor were against it.On June 11, 2009, nearly 40 of my family and friends gathered in the area close to where I would land while I headed up in the airplane. My instructor, Jay, guided me through the experience. The plane was the noisiest one I had ever been in, but I wasn’t frightened—I was really just looking forward to the experience. When we reached 13,000 feet, Jay instructed me to throw myself out of the plane. When we first hit the air, the wind was so strong that I could hardly breathe. For a second I thought, “What have I gotten myself into?” But then everything got calmer. We were in a free fall for about a minute before Jay opened the parachute(降落伞), then we just floated downward for about five minutes. Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I have ever felt—much better than the hot air balloon. I was just enjoying it.Skydiving was really one of the greatest experiences of my life. I hope other people will look at me and realize that you don’t stop living just because you are 84 years old. If there’s something you want to experience, look into it. If it’s something that is possible, make it happen.60. What happened to the author in 2001?A. She went on a hot air balloon rideB. She entered a competitionC. She flew an airplaneD. She moved into a retirement community61 The author mentioned George Bush Sr. in her essay to .A. build up her own reputationB. show her admiration for himC. compare their health conditionD. make her argument persuasive62. How did the author feel immediately after she jumped out of the plane?A. ExcitedB. ScaredC. NervousD. Regretful63. What did the author enjoy most when she was skydiving?A. The wonderful viewB. The one-minute free fallC. The company of JayD. The beautiful cloudsCGetting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ. A dvertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家),encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.64. The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because .A. they lived healthily in a dirty environment.B. they believed disease could be spread in public bathsC. they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay inD. they considered bathing as the cause of skin diseaseof the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing?A. Uninterested.B. Curious.C. Afraid. D Approving.66. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A To present the change of views on dirt. B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To call attention to the danger of dirt.D. To stress the role of dirt.第二部份: 从后面所给的5个句子当选出可以填在文中空缺部份的选项,其中有一个句子是多余的If you are worried about things and are under a lot of stress at work or school, then you are probably not sleeping well.

Nearly half the competitors in the 26.2-mile race will be women. But for most of the race’s 119-year history, only men were officially allowed to compete.A woman named Roberta “Bobbi” Gibb helped change that in 1966, when she secretly ran the marathon and finished ahead of most of the men. “Word went out around the world that a woman had done the impossible,” says Gibb. “It changed the way men thought about women.”Gibb saw her first Boston Marathon in 1964, while running through her neighborhood. She was inspired to run the race herself. For nearly two years, Gibb trained to build the energy and strength she’d need to finish. But when she sent in an application for the 1966 race, it was turned down.At the time, the longest official races for women were only 1.5 miles. Many people didn’t think women were physically capable of running longer distances. Running a marathon was also seen as “unladylike.”But the 23-year-old Gibb refused to let go of her dream. She came up with a plan to run the race anyway. On April 19, she showed up at the marathon wearing her brother’s shorts and a sweatshirt to hide the fact that she was a woman.Gibb hid in the bushes near the starting line. When the race began, she jumped into the pack. Shortly into the race, Gibb took off her sweatshirt. To her surprise, the crowd cheered when they realized she was a woman. Gibb finished the race in 3 hours and 21 minutes — faster than two thirds of the male runners.Gibb opened the door for future female long-distance runners. In the years that followed, she and other women ran in the Boston Marathon, even though the rules still prohibited (禁止) women from running in the race. Finally, in 1972, the marathon was officially opened to women.4. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably refers to the thoughts that women couldn’t _____.A. win a long-distance raceB. take the place of menC. complete a marathonD. compete with men5. What happened to Gibb when she was found running the 1966 Boston Marathon?A. She ran back to the starting line.B. She got support from the crowd.C. She was driven away from the race.D. She took off her brother’s sweatshirt.6. Which of the following can best describe Gibb?A. Easy-going.B. Soft-hearted.C. Strong-willed.D. Open-minded.7. What’s probably the best title for the text?A. Leading a new lifeB. Running into historyC. Long-distance runnersD. The world’s oldest raceCFrom self-driving cars to carebots for elderly people, rapid development in technology has long represented a possible threat to many jobs normally performed by people. But experts now believe that almost 50 percent of occupations existing today will be completely unnecessary by 2025 as artificial intelligence continues to change businesses.“The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work, and a revolution will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces,” said Peter Andrew, Director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific.A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.The report is based on interviews with 200 experts, business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific, Europe and North America. It shows that in the UStechnology already destroys more jobs than it creates.But the report states: “Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs —just changing what people do.” Growth in new jobs could occur as much, according to the research.“The growth of 20 to 40 person companies that have the speed and technological know-how will directly challenge big companies,” it states.A 2014 report by Pew Research found 52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years. The optimists pictured “a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create,” according to Aaron Smith, the report's co-author.“Technolog y will continue to affect jobs, but more jobs seem likely to be created. Although there have always been unemployed people, when we reached a few billion people there were billions of jobs. There is no shortage of things that need to be done and that will not change,” Microsoft's Jonathan Grudin told researchers.8. We can infer from the text that in the future _____.A. people will face many difficultiesB. people will take up more creative jobsC. artificial intelligence will threaten people's livesD. most jobs will be done in traditional workplaces9. According to the report, _____.A. people won't necessarily lose jobsB. big companies will face fewer challengesC. small companies will win against big companiesD. most people will become interested in technology10. What is the attitude of most experts in artificial intelligence and robotics to the future?A. Mixed.B. Worried.C. Hopeful.D. Doubtful.11. Jonathan Grudin's words in the last paragraph suggest that _____.A. there will be enough jobs for peopleB. things will change a lot in a few yearsC. many people will become unemployedD. technology will totally change future jobs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。

I washed dishes and cooked from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm and then went on stage and sang until 2:00 in the morning.It wasn’t long before I became known as a singing cook.I had been rejected so many times by record companies that it was hard not to be discouraged.One night, a woman executive (董事)from a company named Warner Brothers Records came to hear me sing.When the show was over, we sat down and talked and after she left, I said to myself it was one more rejection.A few weeks later, my manager received a phone call—Warner Brothers wanted to sign me to a record deal.Soon after, I released my first record in June 1986.It sold over 2 mil lion copies.My best efforts had gone into every job I’ve ever held.It was the sense of responsibility that made me feel like a man.Knowing that I had done my best filled me with pride.I still feel that way today, even though I have become a well-known singer.25.

It is known that some people can not spend long enough on the task or brushing too hard. Now help is at hand for the problem, just in your smart-phone.The Kolibree eiectric toothbrush can be linked to your iPhone by Bluetooth, with an app (应用程序) allowing you to follow instructions on the screen. It can send information to your phone as you brush. Your phone then shows the messages which tell you how you’re doing it and suggestimprovements.If you brush too hard or too quickly, the phone receives signals from the brush and shows a warning to prevent you from damaging your gums (牙龈). In the end, the smart-phone shows a summary of how well you brushed your teeth, and rsome tipson what you could do better next time. The smart toothbrush will guide users in terms of how to brush, and they will be able to fully personaliz e (使个性化) the brushing method for them. Users can program the app to six modes which change the way of the brush - daily cleaning, deep cleaning, whitening, gum care, sensitive cleaning, or tongue cleaning. The app also stores the users data, so you can view your brushing habits in a graph by day, week or month. It's said to be useful for parents who want to keep an eye on their children's brushing. When it's time to visit the doctor, the app will show a change and a list of operations in the user's area to the doctor. Besides,because many people get bored while brushing, the app has a feature which allows the user to watch the news. In tests, the app can extend average brushing time from less than a minute to two rrunutes and 16 seconds, according to the scientists.Nowadays, a lot of people are interested in the toothbrush. If you are interested in it, you can have a try.28. What does the underlined phrase "the problem" in Paragraph l refer to?A. Many people don't get good toothbrushes.B.

How to brush your teethC. How to operate the toothbrushD. A new way to clean your toothbrushDStores, farmers markets, gas stations, and restaurants have been interested in the organic (有机的) food. According to the Organic Trade Association survey, sales of organic food in the US are growing and are now a 23-billion-dollar industry. However, it can be difficult to tell natural foods from organic foods. Most people don't know that there is a major difference between the two foods. No one seems to be able to determine which is which, creating a lot of confusion for people who are truly concerned with buying the best and healthiest products.In 2000, the United States Department ofAgpculture (USDA) published its official position on organic foods and made its production controlled by a strict law. While there are several standards for orgrnic foods, foods must have been grown without the use of antibiotics(杭生素), growth hormones (激素), chemical things and so on. The leaves of plants are one of the best choices.On the other hand, natural foods have no legal rules, and are not controlled by any law. The USDA does require that seller should list the parts of natural foods, but there are no official rules for the amormt of natural parts a food must contain. A natural food is usually considered to contain less chemical things, though there is no way tokeep an eye on the product.The USDA has guidelines for organic production. When considering buying organic foods, you must take into consideration that the organi c meat, eggs and milk products must come from animals that are given no antibiotics or growth hormones. Organic foods fall into one ofthe three kinds: "100% organic", "organic" and "made with organic parts."Due to higher labor costs, organic prod ucts cost 40% to 120% more compared with their natural foods. The most important thing to remember is to eat a variety of healthy foods, organic or natural foods. Eating more fruits, vegetables, low-fat and whole grains will be good for our health.31. People feel confiised when buying organic foods because______.A. the price of organic foods is too highB. they have no idea of what organic foods areC. they have never known the parts of organic foodsD. it is difficult to tell organic foods from natural foods32. What can be used in growing organic foods ?A. Chemical things.B. Antibiotics.C. The leaves of plants.D. Growth hormones.33. What is the attitude of the author towards the quality of natural foods?A. Worried.B. Interested.C. Unconcemed.D. Positive.34. The passage is developed _______.A. by spaceB. by comparisonC. by processD. by time35. What may be the main idea of the text?A. The advantages of organic foods.B. The function oforganic foods.C. The differences between natural foods and organic foods.D. The importance of organic foods and natural foods.第二节(共5小题;共10分)No matter what problem we're facing, we always find solutions.36 If you need a boost of happiness to help you t hrough the day, be sure to remember these things:Accept it.Although it may seem challenging to accept a negative situation, it's your best bet in moving toward a resolution. 37 What you can do is only focus on how to improve the circumstances now.Don't waste time considering it.Working on a problem a long time can only make it bigger than it already is.
