Yesterday, a firefighter crossed a partly frozen Arizona Lake to rescue two teenagers, who paid no attention to the da nger sign “THIN ICE, STAY AW AY”. The boys hung onto a tree after ice began to crack. A girl stayed on the bank. She noticed them and called for help.Jack, a man on the ice rescue team, moved forward on the ice carefully to save the boys. When he covered half of the 200 feet, the ice broke. He had to make his way through the water. The training he had received worked as designed.It was already dark by the time the boys were taken back to the bank. The boys didn't seem to be frightened, but their hands and feet got pretty cold. They were taken to hospital for treatment. “We often have kids trying to see how far out they can go,” said the spokesman. “That was pretty foolish, Arizona Lake, usually doesn't get cold enough for ice to freeze solidly. There was pr obably an inch of ice in the middle of the Lake.”。

2015年高中三年级教学质量检测英语第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)ARaised in a fatherless home, my father was extremely tightfisted towards us children. His attitude didn’t soften as I grew into adulthood and went to college. I had to ride the bus whenev er I came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home. Dad never met me, even in cold weather. If I grumbled, he’d say in his loudest father-voice. “That’s what your legs are for!”The walk didn’t bother me as much as the fear of walking alo ne along the highway and country roads, I also felt less than valued t hat my father didn’t seem concern ed about my safety. That feeling was canceled one spring evening.It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs. I longed for home. When the bus reached a stop. I stepped off and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home.A row of hedge (篱笆) the driveway that climb the hill to our house. Once I had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, I always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home. On that particular evening, the hedge had just come into view when I saw something gray moving along the top of the hedge, moving towards the house. Upon closer observ ation, I realized it was the top of my father’s head. Then I knew that each time I’d come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived safely. I swallowed hard against the tears. He did care, after all.On later visits, that spot of gray became my watchtower. I could hardly wait until I was close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery. Upon reaching home, I would find my father sitting innocently in his chair “So! My son, it’s you!” he’d say, his face le ngthening into pretended surprise.I replied, “Yes. Dad, it’s me I’m home.”21. What does the underlined word “grumbled” in Paragraph I mean?A. admitted readilyB. whisper carelessly.C. explained clearlyD. spoke unhappily.22. What made the author feel bothered?A. The tiredness after long hours in labsB. The fear of walking home by himselfC. The feeling of being less than valuedD. The loneliness of riding the bus home23. The author’s father watched behind the hedge because ________.A. he felt concern ed about his son’s safetyB. he wanted to help his son build up courageC. he wanted to meet his son at the doorwayD. he thought his son was too young to walk alone24. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. My Father’s SecretB. The Hedge Around MeC. Terrible Journey HomeD. Riding Bus AlongBI have been teaching animal behavior at the Boulder County Prison in Colorado for 10 years.The course is one of the most popular in the prison. Prisoners have to earn the right to attend the course and they work hard to get in.One reason why the course is so popular is that many prisoners find it easier to connect with animals than with people, because animals don’t judge them. They trust animals in ways they don’t with humans.Yet, they hold a misunderstanding of how animals treat one another. Many admit that their own “animal behavior” is what got them into trouble in the first place. I teach that though there is competition and aggression in the animal kingdom, there is also a lot of cooperation, and sympathy.Many of the students want to build healthy relationships, and they find that the class helps them. I use examples of the social behavior of group-living animals such as wolves as a model for developing and maintaining(维持) friendships among people who must work together for their own good and also for the good of the group.It’s clear that science inspires the students here and it also gives them hope. I know some students have gone back into education after their being set free while others have gone to work for humane societies or contributed time and money to conservation organizations. One went on to receive a master’s degree in nature writing.Science and humane education help the prisoners connect with values that they otherwise would at have done. It opens the door to understanding, trust, cooperation and hope. There’s a large population of people to whom science could mean a lot, if only they could have access to it. The class helps me, too. I get as much out of it as the students and it has made me a better teacher.25. The author’s course is welcomed by the prisoners because___A. they have to earn the right to attend itB. they are curious about animals kingdomC. they feel it easier to get along with animalsD. they are more familiar with animal behavior26. The author used wolves as an example to ___.A. provide the prisoners with more knowledgeB. explain the cruel side of group-living animalsC. help the prisoners realize the importance of teamworkD. inform the prisoners that animals bring them trouble27. We can infer from the text that after being set free some prisoners___A. have turned over a brand new leafB. are required to receive the educationC. pay no attention to nature protectionD. prefer humane education to scienceCMelbourne, AustraliaMelbourne is a hot-spot travel destination, and it’s easy to see why with its beautiful beaches and busy city life.Why it’s a great choice: Australia as a whole is considered a safe destination for international travel, and because of that, many solo travelers go there. As an English-speaking country, you won’t be faced with any language barriers. Melbourne is easy to get around because you can walk or bike practically anywhere!ThailandThailand is great for solo travelers—perhaps because it is one of the Buddhist mindsets, which promote equality among the sexes.Why it’s a great choice: Thailand is known for its friendly atmosphere, and as a travel hot-spot, there are plenty of chances to meet other like-minded travelers, Well known for being very cheap, especially in the north.

Thailand has a lot to offer, from the party-central Bangkok to beautiful beaches and tropical jungle.Hong Kong, ChinaHong Kong is a great place to relax for solo travelers, as it is full of “Zen moments” such as beautiful gardens and Tai Chi classes.Why it’s so great choice: Hong Kong is regarded as one of the safest cities in the world. If you’re not well-traveled, or perhaps a bit weary of things like language barriers, Hong Kong is a great place to start, as it mixes both Eastern and Western at the same time.Bali, IndonesiaBali is a spiritual place with yoga, spas, organic, food and beaches. The combination of friendly people and splendidly visual culture has made Bali Indonesia number one tourist attraction.Why it’s so great: You won’t be the only solo traveler in Bali.

A travel journal.B. A business reportC. A travel surveyD. A book reviewDWindows 8, apart from Windows 95, is the biggest surprise and the only version of Microsoft’s operating system has been changed from the core(核心) when compared to its former one. However, a recent study has shown that under 20% of business owners would be willing to upgrade to the new version of Windows. The reason for this remains to be discussed and debated, and we will try to throw light on this research by providing you with some of the most common advantages and disadvantages of Windows 8.Generally speaking, there are a great number of plus sides related to upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 8.Speed—This is the biggest advantage to mention. Boot time has been related to be up to nine times shorter than that with Windows 7.New passwords—Instead of typing you passwords, Windows 8 will let you use gestures onyour favorite photos to enter your password. This is not only practical but also extremely cool!Windows 8 experience—Apart from computers, Windows 8 will be used on all devices, including smart phones, tablet PC’s and so on. Also, owing to the fact that it has been specifically designed with touch screen users in mind, Windows 8, besides using keyboard and mouse, will offer a whole new user experience.However, there are still some disadvantages.The first one that has to be mentioned is that there is no Start Menu from Windows 8. Yes, there is no Start button in the lower left corner, and this might be a real puzzle of many Windows users. Also, many users have had a problem to get used to the new interface(界面) introduced by Windows 8.

About 70% of Americans say being around nonstop complainers sometimes has a bad influence on them. Luckily, here are 4 tips to help form positive patterns.1.

But the less frequently you complain, the better you will feel.2. Distance yourself___38___. Excuse yourself and go somewhere quiet, somewhere outdoors in the fresh air. Think of something pleasant before returning. You have to take this seriously because negative people can and will pull you into the quicksand.3. Don’t try to change complainersIf you find yourself trapped in a group of complainers in a meeting or at a social event, simply choose silence. Let their words bounce off you while you think of something else. Attempting to stop the complaining can make you a target. ___39___. If someone says, “I hate Mondays, weekends are too short,” try to think. “I’m glad I rested up over the weekend, so I’m ready to make some improvement on that big project”.4. ___40___When someone is shouting at you angrily, throw the responsibility back at them by asking, “So what do you intend to do about it?” In most cases, complainers don’t really want a solution. They just want to speak them out. If you make them aware that they themselves have to find the solutions, they will leave you alone and find someone else to complain to. If so, you will be happy.A. Find solutionsB. Change responsibilityC. You have got a lot of companyD. By doing this, it will lead to positive behaviorsE. Whenever possible, escape from negative conversationsF.

AWith two documentaries-All That Breathes and The Elephant Whisperers-making it to the Oscars, there's renewed interest in India's diverse wildlife. However, most popular wildlife parks are usually expensive. Here are four less-known reserves that are not so costly but equally worth exploring.Coringa Wildlife ReserveCoringa is the second largest mangrove forest in the country. It is a birder's paradise and also home to otters, jackals, fishing cats and estuarine crocodiles. Endangered Olive Ridley sea turtles nest here during January-March every year.COST OF RIDE: 400-2, 500 per person by boatBEST TIME TO VISIT: November to FebruaryNational Chambal ReserveThe 5, 400 sq km reserve is the only one in India with three keystone species-Ganges river dolphin, ghariyal and red-crowned roof turtle-along with eight rare turtle species and about 300 species of migratory and resident birds.COST OF RIDE: 1, 800 per person by boatBEST TIME TO VISIT: November to MarchGulf of Mannar Marine National ParkThe park has 21 small islands and three distinct coastal ecosystems-coral reef, seagrass bed and mangroves-with over 4, 200 species of plants and animals. It is the last reserve of the unique “living fossil”Balanoglossus that links vertebrates (脊椎动物)and invertebrates.COST OF RIDE: 200-400 per person in a glass-bottomed boatBEST TIME TO VISIT: October to MarchManas National ParkThis reserve is a UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site. It is home to the threatened Indian Rhinoceros and other rare species like the Red Panda, Golden Langur and Pygmy Hog, and is also a Project Tiger Reserve and an elephant reserve with around 55 species of mammals, 450 species of birds and 50 species of reptiles.COST OF RIDE: 1, 150 per head on elephant, 4, 400 for a jeep with fourpeople, 8, 200 per person to 10, 600 for six people in a boatBEST TIME TO VISIT: October to May1. What is probably the major concern of visitors choosing these less-known reserves?A. Season.B. Security.C. Price.D. Transportation.2. Which attracts tourists who hope to see different turtle species most?A. Coringa Wildlife Reserve.B. National Chambal Reserve.C. Gulf of Mannar Marine National Park.D. Manas National Park.3. How much does it cost for 4 people to explore Manas National Park on elephant?A. 4, 400.B. 4, 600.C. 8, 200.D. 10, 600.BWhen 76-year-old Antoinette-Marie Williams played 17-year-old Emmett Daniels in chess for the first time, she gave Daniels a run for his money. Paired through DOROT, a New York organization which was launched in 1976, they are a. perfect match. “I was a good opponent for him. I don't think he expected it. ”Williams told the CVS Health blog Fortune Well. Their weekly games have led Daniels and Williams to a cross-generational relationship that they both enjoy. Williams and Daniels'relationship disproves the idea that people of different generations have little in common.Since its founding, DOROT has achieved a reputation of excellence and innovation in the fields of aging services. Volunteers of young ages offer critical resources to older adults, in services specific to the person's needs and interests, with the ultimate goal of lessening loneliness of the old.Loneliness has been recognized as a significant social issue for many years, but the classification of loneliness as an epidemic (流行病)has emerged only in recent years. In 2018, the UK government appointed a Minister for Loneliness, highlighting the increasing concern around the issue. This followed the publication of the 2017 report by the Jo Cox Loneliness Commission, which found that loneliness was a growing social epidemic and called for a national strategy to address the issue.Fortunately, there are ways to battle loneliness, including the intervention in the lives of isolated seniors by organizations like DOROT. It advocates building a support network by reaching out to family and friends, joining a community or social group, or volunteering to connect with like-minded people. The connection between Williams and Daniels shows that these inter-generational relationships play an important role in reducing loneliness and adding joy to the lives of all the participants, young and old.Another way to battle loneliness is to use technology to stay connected with loved ones which fosters meaning and purpose through online activities and conversations. Practicing self-care is also encouraged, as is being patient because strong relationships take time and effort to create.4. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 1 probably mean?A. She had a running race with Daniels.B. Daniels felt disappointed.C. Daniels had a tough win.D. She gave Daniels money as a gift of greeting.5. What is the purpose of DOROT?A. To make technological innovation.B. To enhance the living standards of the elderly.C. To offer job opportunities for people of all ages.D. To provide seniors with inter-generational connection.6. What does the author try to stress in paragraph 3?A. The solution to loneliness.B. The root cause of loneliness.C. The classification of loneliness.D. The growing attention to loneliness.7. In which section of a newspaper does this passage probably come from?A. Society Watch.B. News Express.C. Page Turner.D. Science Study.CSeveral years ago, I was at a pre-season football practice at a high school where I was working with the team on. a concussion(脑震荡)research project. The players were lined up in two rows facing each other and with little more instruction from the coach than, “on the whistle, hit the man across from you”, great concern rushed through my mind.Professional sports get the lion's share of attention, but over three million children and teenagers in the United States play the same game. This directly places concussions as a significant public health concern for all.However, for decades, concussion has been considered a temporary injury with no long-term consequences. Many athletes will do just about anything to stay on the field and “play through the pain”as a sign of toughness. In 2005, with the release of the brain tissue pathology (病理学)report of Mike Webstera, a retired National Football League player, our thinking on concussion began to shift. Since then, public attention has focused on this link between brain injury and blows to the head. As our understanding of concussion progressed to understanding its significance as an injury, so too did the development of player equipment.In the early 1900s football was played without helmets (头盔), but severe injuries, like skull fractures, led to the occasional use of leather helmets in the 1920s. The first face mask entered the game in the 1950s. Modern helmets use advanced shel1 materials, have moveable panels to absorb forces, and multi-layered padding that responds todifferent impacts. Companies will continue to improve helmets as new materials become available, guided by the newest science.Sports are an important part of a society's culture and they give millions of children much-needed exercise. Yet, participation in any sport carries injury risk, and concussion will always be part of that. As those children become adults and make sport their hobby or 'even career, ensuring them play safely at all levels is essential.8. What made the author feel concerned?A. The coach's inexperience.B. The physical conflicts among the players.C. Unawareness of the potential injuries.D. Unpredictable outcome of the project.9. What did athletes use to do when meeting with sports-related concussion?A. They tended to ignore it.B. They felt scared about it.C. They quit playing immediately.D. They refused medical assistance.10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about concerning the helmet?A. Its gradual improvement.B. Its widespread influence.C. The discovery of its new materials.D. The difficulty of its mass production.11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Exercise is vital for children.B. Sports safety can't be overemphasized.C. No participation in sports is without injuries.D. Concussion is the most common injury in sports.DPeople generally feel secure with certainty. To be certain is to have power and control. Certainty is often used as a metric(衡量标准)of value, shaping how people view themselves and others. For example, people tend to respect those who present themselves as certain while viewing those who express uncertainty as wishy-washy, anduntrustworthy. Young people growing up in a culture that identifies strongly with certainty are told that to be certain is to be secure, right, and good. It is the idea, more than uncertainty itself, that causes great anxiety.But the reality is that certainty is transient; it is more a feeling than a fact. Too often people act as if certainties are drawn in permanent marker: Thick, clear, definitive, and rigid. But they are not. They are actually drawn with pencil-ready for revision, editing, and change.Springtide's recent report, The State of Religion and Young People: Navigating Uncertainty, allows us to hear how young people are questioning certainty and increasingly rejecting the rules that isolate them from themselves and one another. Milly, a 25-year-old quoted in the report, described her experience in a group discussion where uncertainty was welcomed rather than criticized:“Like, struggling to know what or what not to believe. . . . That's something we talked about in the group. It actually makes me feel a little bit better. It's like, oh, like we can have doubts. We can struggle with these feelings and they're still, we're still accepted, you know? So that was actually kind of refreshing" (Springtide, 2021, p. 46).Young people are not rejecting certainty, but they are not accepting prepackaged answers or one-dimensional solutions. They are reexamining pre-drawn labels, beliefs, and identities and daring to ask “Why?”Their courage to question is an invitation to all of us to reconsider and rediscover uncertainty. We can listen to and learn from young people, embracing(拥抱)this opportunity as a moment of critical self-reflection and growth. If we will accept uncertainties, we might discover the ways that multiple beliefs, practices, values, identities, and communities can coexist and develop together.12. What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A. To explain a concept.B. To advocate a culture.C. To introduce a different opinion.D. To confirm an assumption.13. What does the underlined word "transient”probably mean in paragraph 2?A. Changeable.B. Predictable.C. Popular.D. O bjective.14. What was Milly's attitude towards the group discussion?A. Intolerant.B. Doubtful.C. Unconcerned.D. Positive.15. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. Unmask the Culture of CertaintyB. Embrace the Gift of UncertaintyC. Certainty: Should It Be Rejected by the Young?D. Uncertainty: Should It Be Blamed for Anxiety?第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Money was tight that year and Toby’s parents had told him they would not be able to afford a holiday.Instead of dreaming about foreign travel, he had been reading a book, Letter to New Zealand, where the author explains what happens in an envelope’s journey from England to the other side of the world. As they neared their house, Toby asked his mum, Sabine, if he could write a letter to New Zealand. After a few more steps he was struck by an even better idea. “Can I write a letter to every country in the world?”Sabine says she often wonders what would have happened if she had replied differently that day. “It was just one of those typical questions that five-year-olds have,” she says. “ If he had asked me in the evening when I was tired, I might have refused. But as parents you realize there’s a lot of power in just allowing kids to have a go. Also, it seemed a nice way to do some armchair exploration. So I told him” Let’s see how far you get.”The answer was very far indeed. Toby has since written and posted letters to all 193 UN mumber states, aswell as numerous other bad-conditioned areas with comforting ones.To date he has written 681 letters- the best of which have been selected to appear in a new book called Dear World, How Are You?- although so productive is Toby’ pen that the number will have risen by the time you read this.“Writing these letters has made me realize that the world isn’t actually all that big,” he says with a grin.In the future, part of him would like to be a musical director to turn his beloved Star Wars into a ballet. Of course, he also hopes to travel the globe in person to see some of the countries where his letters have ended up.“We’re so lucky to have this wonderful world, and I hope we can live on planet Earth in peace.”24. Why did Toby want to write letters to other countries?A. He was good at writing.B. He was eager to go abroad.C. He got inspired by a book.D. He wanted others to help his family.25. From Toby’s mother’s words, we know that at first____.A. she thought her son’s idea was of no valueB. she got tired of her son’s requestC. she believed her son would succeedD. she thought she should give her son a try26. What’s the influence of writing letters to Toby?A. He has traveled to 193 UN number states.B. He understands more about the world.C. He becomes productive in writing stories.D. He has to put his letters into a book.27. How can we describe Toby?A. Clever and persistent.B. Ambitious and kind-hearted.C. Hardworking and humorous.D. Brave and strong-willed.CThailand’s capital Bangkok is both attractive and wonderful, a city of glass towers and concrete buildings crowded with nearly 10 million people. The ground beneath is spongy(松软多孔的) and moist. Imagine a brick resting on top of a birthday cake. That’s Bangkok-and it’s sinking into the Earth at an alarming rate.Thailand’s disaster specialists have been warning of this coming disaster for years. One expert has said he’s worried about Bangkok resembling Atlantis. Another previously told Global post that the city will be under five feet of water by 2030. The latest estimates suggest that Bangkok is now sinking as fast as two centimeters per year in parts of the city. The predictions for 2100 are even more terrible. By then , Bangkok will be fully submerged and unlivable.Like global warming, which will accelerate the city’s submersion by raising the sea leavel, Bangkok’s sinking problems are repeatedly shrugged off. But the monsoon season, currently underway, tends to bring this crisis to mind. A nasty storm can suddenly turn Bangkok’s streets into gushing streams. Sewers overflow, taxis move through dirty water and, occasionally, kids can pick up displaced fish.Anond Snidvongs, director of the Southeast Asia Regional Research Center, predicts the city’s outskirts will be the first to go. Parts of the shoreline ebyong Bangkok are already liend with pumps that make noises and help to transform invading seawater. They don’t always work. During heavy rains, salt water flows in the streets of the city. Bangkok is swallowed up a little more each day. Experts tend to offer two solutions. The first is to pu up a massive seawall that could cost nearly $3 billion-nearly 1 percent of Thailand’s current GDP. The second option is to give up entirely and move the capital to higher ground.28. Why is Bangkok sinking into the earth?A. Its buildings are too heavy.B. It has an overlarge population.C. Its underground is too loose.D. It is resting on top of a lake.29. What is the most likely meaning of the underlined phrase “shrugged off” in Paragraph 3?A. ignoredB. valuedC. agreedD. misunderstood30. What information does Paragraph 4 express?A. The optimism and wisdom shown by the city people.B. The present serious situation Bangkok is faced with.C. The weakness of the pumps to transform water.D. The huge power produced by the surrounding seawater.31. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Bangkok is disappearingB. The removal of BangkokC. Thailand’s capital needs a seawallD. An attractive city under waterDAs millions of playthings are recalled, doctors are reminded that the risks of lead exposure continue for young patients.Lead is such a well-known health(危害)- perhaps even contributing to the fall of the Roman Empire- that it came as a shock to discover that toys played by children could contain lead. Doctors are now dealing with the aftershocks.Just how dangerous is this exposure? That’s the question phys icians are being asked by parents who find a lead-polluted Elmo, of Dora. Millions of others toys, lunch boxes and pieces of jewelry manufactured in China have been recalled because they contain lead either in the paint that coats them or as a component of the plastic used to make the item more flexible. The lead content in some of the toys recalled this summer was 180 times the amount allowed by law. Some pieces of jewelry were almost 100% lead.Experts advise that the items do cause a risk and that doctors should urge parents to check the comprehensive lists of recalled products on the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s Web site and return any appearing on those lists to the manufacturers.If exposure is suspected, a blood test is in order . Since there is no safe level of this universal (普遍存在的) element, the risk face by children for lead poisoning and its accompanying threat of learning disabilities and behavior problems is considerable.Doctors who have toys in their waiting rooms also are advised to see if any of them have been recalled and to check for chipped, flaking paint-even on those that haven’t yet been recalled—since new announcements of toy risk continue.32. Why does the author mention “the fall of the Roman Empire”?A. To tell us a strange story.B. To warn us to keep away from lead.C. To explain why the Roman Empire fell.D. To show how terrible lead poisoning is.33. What is Dora according to the passage?A. The name of a kind of metal.B. The name of a girl.C. The name of a toy.D. The name of a toy company.34. What should parents do if they are not sure whether their kids have ever touched such toys or not?A. They should ask the experts for advice.B. They should have a medical examination.C. They should have their children blood-tested.D. They should collect all the toys and check online first.35. From the report we can infer that_____.A. children who are exposed to lead have learning disabilitiesB. the unsafe toys have all been listed on the websiteC. lead is used mainly to make the products flexibleD. some toy and jewelry manufacturers will suffer heavy losses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。
2016年全国2卷高考英语试题及答案(整理后)
Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:”Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have45 minutes today - and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.”A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare,” But I’m just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?”“Nobody. I do it.”“Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”25. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________?A. know more about the studentsB. make the lessons more excitingC. raise the students’ interest in artD. teach the students about toy design26. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. He liked to help his teacher.B. He preferred to study alone.C. He was active in class.D. He was imaginative.27. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probabl y mean?A. Mistake.B. Drawback.C. Difficulty.D. Burden.28. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?A. To help them to see their creativity.B. To find out about their sleeping habits.C. To help them to improve their memory.D. To find out about their ways of thinking.CReading 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 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 an d 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 p eople 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.29. 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.30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2refer to?A. The book.B. An adventure.C. A public place.D. The identification number.31. 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.32. 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 BooksDA new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.Frank Hurl ey’s pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism---if they had been made last week. In fact, they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海滩), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival. Many of the images were stored in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of s eamen and scientists, 27 men in all, to the southernmost shore of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled(雪橇) across the continent. The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done. Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the march back.As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort. Scott’s last journey, completed as be lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the world’s imagination, and a film made in his honor drew crowds. Shackleton, a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography. Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired to make the images, most of which have never before been published.33. What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?A. They were made last weekB. They showed undersea sceneriesC. They were found by a cameramanD. They recorded a disastrous adventure34. Who reached the South Pole first according to the text?A. Frank HurleyB. Ernest ShackletonC. Robert Falcon ScottD. Caroline Alexander35. What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914 voyage?A. Artistic creationB. Scientific researchC. Money makingD.

But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.●___37Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilizers(肥料). 38 . However, there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.●Recall(回忆)your childhood memoriesOur model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood. Grandma’s rose garden and Dad’s vegetable garden might be good or bad, but that’s not what’s important. 39 --how being in those gardens made us feel. If you’d like to build a powerful bond with your garden, start by taking some time to recall the gardens of your youth. 40 then go outside and work out a plan to translate your childhood memories into your grown-up garden. Have fun.A. Know why you gardenB. Find a good place for your own gardenC. It’s our experience of the garden that mattersD. It’s delightful to see so many beautiful flowersE. Still others may simply enjoy being outdoors and close to plantsF. You can produce that kind of magical quality in your own garden, tooG.

Then, handle the most important tasks first so you’ll feel a real sense of 62 (achieve). Leaving the less important things until tomorrow 63 (be) often acceptable.Most of us are more focused 64 our tasks in the morning than we are later in the day. So, get an early start and try to be as productive 65 possible before lunch. This will give you the confidence you need to get you through the afternoon and go home feeling accomplished.Recent 66 (study) show that we are far more productive at work if we take short breaks 67 (regular).

AAway from parents,above the crowd,enjoying total freedom—having a tree house can be every little kid’s dream.Workshops aimed at teaching people how to build tree houses have become widely popular in America in recent years.Three-year-old Mica and her little sister got a tree house this year.This $ 28,000 tree house is a gift from their parents.Roughly three meters above ground,the platform was built into two large trees.“The fancy hide-out has a climbing wall and I wanted them to go in to make it feel more like a secret hideout,”said Mica’s mother Kristin Keenan.This amazing tree house was created by Dan Wright.He’s the founder of Tree Top Builders Inc.and has built more than 400 tree houses since he started the company in 2003.“A sense of freedom and independence…that’s I think why Americans particularly like tree houses.Because itgets you up off the ground and,for kids,their parents can’t reach them anymore.They are up looking down,getting a new perspective on life,”said Wright.According to Wright,installing the special tree bolt(螺栓),which requires both strength and accuracy,is the most important part of the work.“As the tree grows,sometimes you need to move parts of the structure or cut parts of it away to give the tree room to grow each year.It gets ticker,”said Wright.The base is then lifted on top of the tree bolts.It will soon become the foundation of a great tree house,so kids or adults can enjoy playing in the treetops.21.What can we learn about Mica’s parents?A.They are good at building tree houses.B.They love playing hide-and-seek games.C.They have a son and a daughter.D.They seem to be quite well off.22.According to Wright,why do Americans like tree houses?A.Freedom is deeply rooted in American culture.B.They can be special gifts for children.C.They cost less than ordinary houses.D.They’re environmentally friendly.23.What’s the last paragraph mainly about?A.The difficulty of building tree houses.B.The process of building tree houses.C.The fun of building tree houses.D.The popularity of building tree houses.BAlthough most hitchhikers(搭便车的人)are people,passers—by tend to ignore them because they are cautious about giving rides to strangers.But what will they do if they come across a hitchhiking robot? Will they take it to its destination or will they just leave the helpless machine by the wayside?That is the answer Canadian professors,David Harris Smith and Frauke Zeller,who study the relationship between humans and technology,are seeking for after they came up with the idea of building a hitchhiking robot.HitchBOT is built with cheap household items.Thanks to a PC tablet,GPS tracker and camera,hitchBOT not only can send its thoughts and pictures to the general public,but also can answer general questions and keep drivers entertained with small talks.The smart robot is even able to quote(引用)interesting facts about the areas it has passed through.Not surprisingly,many people are doubtful about hitchBOT’s ability.Most people think the cute robot will be damaged by someone.Actually,they are all wrong.The robot hitchhiked all the way from Halifax,Nova Scotia,to Victoria,British Columbia,a distance of 3,700 miles.It was first picked up on July 27th by an elderly couple.It not only reached its destination on August 21st,but also had some amazing adventures along the way.It visited national parks,went fishing,went camping,and even attended a wedding where it experienced its first dance and interrupted the bride’s speech.In addition to helping it get to its destination,its Canadian fans have gone out to ensure its safety-from coveting the robot with a plastic cape(披肩)to help keep it dry to ensuring that it stays healthy with motor oil.24.Why is the hitchhiking robot built?A.To help passers-by reach their destinations.B.To find out how people might

quickly.CA first-time novelist,Viet Thanh Nguyen,has won the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for fiction.He won the prize for his book,“The Sympathizer.”The Pulitzer judges described Nguyen’s book as an immigrant’s story told through the voice of“a man of two minds,and two countries…’’The book is set in both Vietnam,where the author was born,and the United States,where he was raised.Critics(文学批评家)have praised“The Sympathizer”as all exciting spy story with emo- tional depth and humor:It tells about a group of South Vietnamese army officers who escape to the United States at the end of the Vietnam War.Among them is a captain who is secretly loyal to the Viet Cong.He reports to Viet Cong officials about the group and their lives in Los Angeles.Nguyen came to the United States with his family in 1975 when he was very young.They lived for several years in a refugee camp in Pennsylvania.They settled in San Jose,California.Nguyen studied at the University of California,Berkeley,where he earned a doctorate in Eng1ish.Now he is a professor of English and American studies and ethnicity at the University of Southern California.He has published three non-fiction books and some short stories.The writer told the Los Angeles Times that it was important to him when the writers Toni Morrison and Jhumpa Lahiri won Pulitzers.He called their wins landmarks for writers of color and Asian American writers.Nguyen said Morrison’s work influenced his choice to write for,in his words,“people who are intimate to me and not to think that I was writing for a white audience first.”Viet Thanh Nguyen is not the first person to win a Pulitzer for a first novel.But,it is a rare event.Other 2016 Pulitzer winners include the poetry prize for“Ozone

manner to their customers . This is particularly so in the case of companies which do business in areas such as manufacturing,information technology(IT),engineering products and services—companies whose products and services may not be understood by a customer not familiar with its technical aspects.These communication materials are prepared in a company these days by“technical writers”—people who can effectively communicate to an Intended audience.Technical writing and writing text-books are poles apart.The former is aimed at those who do not have an in-depth knowledge about a product and therefore should be direct and easy to Understand.Too many technical terms would only add to the confusion of the customer.Technical writers first need to understand the technical information themselves,before trying to communicate it in easier 1anguage to the customers.Even graduates of English literature are often found wanting when it comes to creative and effective writing.This simply means that those with a Bachelor’s degree in English Literature along with a diploma/degree in Journalism and having a Post Graduate Diploma in Computer Applications (PGDCA)are ideal(理想的)candidates for being employed as technical writers.A career in technical writing is seen as a good choice for women mainly because it is widely held that women are more gifted in creative writing than men and the job does not involve too much travelling or working at night.32.What are“technical writers”supposed to do?A.To write about the company’s products or services in clear,easy language.B.To write about the company’s products using correct technical terms.B.To effectively communicate to an intended audience by writing letters.D.To travel around to persuade people to buy the company’s products or services.33.Which of the following best explains the underlined word“wanting”in Paragraph 3? A.Being needed.B.Wanting to write.C.Hoping to be employed.D.Lacking in ability.34.What would happen if many technical terms are used in technical writing?A.It would sound too formal.B.It would help engineers a lot.C.It would confuse the customer.D.It would produce a better effect.35.Who would be the best candidate for a technical writer?A.A man with degrees in English literature and Journalism and a PGDCA.B.A female with degrees in English literature and Journalism and a PGDCA.C.A male graduate of English literature with a diploma in Journalism.D.A woman with a degree in English literature along with a diploma in Journalism.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。
