2014新课标I高考压轴卷 英语(含解析)
2014新课标高考压轴卷英语第Ⅰ卷第二部分: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) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A,B,C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.AA rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below l6℃. Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate. Without the forest cover，these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere，warming the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns，potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.In the past hundred years，humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources（资源）：land for crops，wood for paper and other products，land for raising farm animals. This action affects the environment as a whole. For example，a lot of carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）in the air comes from burning the rainforests. People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit.There are two main reasons for this. Firstly，when people cut down trees，generally they can only use the land for a year or two. Secondly，cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now，but in the long run it actually reduces the world’s wood supply.Rainforests are often called the world’s drug store. More than 25％of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests. However，fewer than l％of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value. It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the world’s shrinking rainforests.21. What does the word “this” underlined in the third paragraph refer to?A. We will lose much more than we can gain.B. Humans have begun destroying rainforests.C. People have a strong desire for resources.D. Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests.22. It can be inferred from the text thatA. we can get enough resources without rainforestsB. there is great medicine potential in rainforestsC. we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained landD. the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns23. What might be the best title for the text?A. How to Save RainforestsB. How to Protect NatureC. Rainforests and the EnvironmentD. Rainforests and Medical DevelopmentBLike any good mother; when Karen found out that another baby was on the way, she did what she could to help her 3 - year - old son, Michael, prepare for a new baby．They find out that the new baby is going to be a girl, and day after day, night after night, Michael sings to his sister in Mommy's stomach．Finally, Michael's little sister is born．But she is in serious condition．With alarm in the night, the ambulance rushes the infant to the neonatal (初生的) intensive care unit at St．Mary's Hospital, Knoxville, Tennessee．The days go by．The little girl gets worse．The pediatric (儿科的) specialist tells the parents, “There is very little hope．Be prepared for the worst．”Karen and her husband contact a local cemetery about a burial plot．They have fixed up a special room in their home for the new baby , but now they plan a funeral．Michael, keeps begging his parents to let him see his sister, "I want to sing to her," he says．Karen makes up her mind．She will take Michael whether they like it or not．If he doesn’t see his sister now, he may never see her alive．She dresses him in an oversized suit and marches him into ICU．He looks like a walking laundry basket, but the head nurse recognizes him as a child and shouts, " Get that kid out of here now! No children are allowed．Never disturb patients here．The mother rises up strongly and said?" He is not leaving until he sings to his sister!"Karen leads Michael to his sister's bedside．He gazes at the tiny infant losing the battle to live．And he begins to sing．In die pure hearted voice of a 3 - year - old, Michael sings: " You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray．．．" Instantly the baby girl responds．The pulse rate becomes calm and steady．The next day, the very next day, the little girl is well enough to go home! Woman's Day magazine called it " the miracle of a brother's song．" The medical staff just called it a miracle．Karen called it a miracle of Gods love!Never give up on die people you love．24．What may the underlined words "the infant" refer to?A．The baby．B．Karen．C．Mary．D．Michael25．What do we know about the little sister after she was born?A．She was driven to St．Mary's shop． B．A doctor came to see her in her house．C．She was very thin and couldn't speak．D．She was in great danger．26．What do we know about the head nurse?A．The head nurse was careful．B．The head nurse was rude．C．The head nurse was responsible．D．The head nurse had no sympathy．27．What is the general idea of the text?A．A boy' s singing saved his sister' s life．B．The little girl is well enough to go home．C．Michael's little sister is born with a serious disease．D．No children are allowed to enter the intensive care unit．CThe opera house in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is one of the most beautiful in the United states. It is small and open, with one roof over the stage where singers perform and another roof over part of the audience. This opera house in the mountain is one of the best in the country, which may seem surprising because performances are only given during the seven weeks in summer, and because Santa Fe is a very small city.One reason why the Santa Fe Opera is so good is that it attracts many excellent young singers. They all hope to sing in famous opera houses like Metropolitan in New York someday, and they work hard to become well-known during the summer. The musicians and directors are experts who come from the best orchestras(管弦乐队) and operas in the country during their vacations. They enjoy working there because they like to live in Santa Fe, which is near both the mountains and the desert. It is very beautiful there in summer.The state government of New Mexico advertises the Santa Fe Opera in newspapers all over the country, and a great many tourists come to New Mexico because of the opera. Still, most of the audience does come from Santa Fe and other nearby cities, and all the seats in the theater are sold for every show.There is only one thing that some people do not like about the Santa Fe Opera, and that is the cold weather. Because the theater is open, performances cannot start before it gets dark at nine o’clock in the evening, and then the mountain air becomes very cool. Sometimes people complain about the cold air, but because the operas are good, these people come back again wearing warm coats.28. This passage mainly introduces _______.A. a mountain cityB. young musiciansC. an opera houseD. the tourism in Santa Fe29. Yong singers come to perform in Santa Fe Opera because _______.A. the music quality is highB. they enjoy the climate thereC. they want to be famousD. they like the scenery there30. It seems surprising that Santa Fe becomes famous because _______.A. it is only a very small placeB. it is between the mountain and desertC. all the seats are sold for every showD. musicians there are from the best orchestras31. From the passage, we can learn that _______.A. the opera house is open without any roofsB. musicians always spend vacations in Santa FeC. the government advertises to attract more musiciansD. performances are held in Santa Fe only after it is darkDMy father was 44 and knew he wasn’t going to make it to 45. He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in my heart. One part always stands out. “Right now, you are pretending to be a time-killer. But I know that one day, you will do something great that will set you among the very best.” Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe in myself. “You will do something great.” He didn’t know what that would be, and neither did I, but at times in my life when I’ve felt proud of myself, I remember his words and wish he were here so I could ask. “Is this what you were talking about, Dad? Should I keep going?”A long way from 12 now, I realize he would have been proud when I made an y progress. Lately, though, I’ve come to believe he’d want me to move on to what comes next: to be proud of and believe in, somebody else. It’s time to start writing my own letters to my children. Our children look to us with the same unanswered question we had. Our kids don’t hold back because they’re afraid to fail. They’re only afraid of failing us. They don’t worry about being disappointed. Their fear ----as mine was until my father’s letter----is of being a disappointment. Give your children permissio n to succeed. They’re waiting for you to believe in them. I always knew my parents loved me. But trust me: That belief will be more complete, that love will be more real, and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts; “Don’t worry; you’ll do something great.” Not having that blessing from their parents may b e the only thing holding them back.32. We learn from the text that the author .A. lost his father when he was youngB. worked hard before he read h is father’s letterC. asked his father permission to believe in himselfD. knew exactly what great thing his father wanted him to do33. What does the author tell us in the 3rd paragraph?A. Children need their parents’ letters.B. Children are af raid to be disappointed.C. His children’s fear of failure held them back.D. His father’s letter removed his fear of failing his parents.34. Which of the following is true of the author?A. He got no access to success.B. He wrote back to his father at 12.C. He was sure his parents loved him.D. He once asked his father about the letter.35. The main purpose of the text is to _______.A. describe children’s thinkingB. answer some questions children haveC. stress the importance of communicationD. advise parents to encourage their children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 expands your imagination out of the real world and to some place where your true talent can be found.I am one of those who have gained a lot from reading. When I was young, all in my mind were the blue sky and the carefree life and it never occurred to me what I wanted to be in the future. However, everything changed when I curiously openedthe biography of Madame.

Britain?s relationship with tea is much shorter, but tea enjoys pride of place as the UK?s national drink. According to the UK Tea Council, British people drink an average of three cups a day or a national total of 165 million cups every day.With figures like these, it is no surprise that time spent taking tea affects the working day in Britain. A recent survey found that 24 minutes a day are lost to making, buying and drinking tea and coffee. That is, ￡400 a year is lost in working hours per employee, or 190 days over a lifetime. So, should employers be worried about this lost working time, or does the tea break make up in other ways?One argument is that caffeine improves mental state: a drink of tea or coffee can make you active and focus on work.Professor Rogers of the University of Bristol disagrees. After years of studying caffeine he sees nothing can prove that. “Workers would perform equally well if not drinking it at all,”he says. “But if they?re often drinking it and then go without, they?ll feel tired and won?t work well.” Psychologist Cooper instead emphasizes the role tea breaks play in office life, and in building social relationships. “We need to make people more active and see other people. The tea break is one way of doing this,” says Cooper.And Professor Rogers also points out the comfort effect of a hot drink: “We warm our handson them on a cold day; they?re comforting and play a big role in our everyday life. Whatever the caffeine?s doing, I?d say these 24 minutes aren?t wasted.”21. What is the passage mainly about?A. Tea Breaks cannot make people more active at work.B. British people drink more tea than people in other countries.C. Tea break plays an important role in people?s life in Britain.D. A lot of time has been wasted drinking tea in the working day.22. We learn from a recent survey that in Britain _______.A. ￡400 is lost in working hours for each personB. tea breaks take up 24 minutes in a working dayC. people spends 190 days drinking tea and coffee each yearD. people drink 165 million cups in working hours every day23. What?s Psychologist Coopers? attitude towards tea break?A. Doubtful.B. Uncertain.C. Negative.D. Positive.BI suddenly heard an elephant crying as though frightenedLooking down I immediately recognized that something was wrong and ran down to the edge of the near bank There I saw Ma Shwe with her three-month-old calf struggling in the fast-rising water and it was a life-and-death struggle Her calf was floating and screaming with fear Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get, holding her whole body against the rushing water and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body . Every now and then the rushing water would sweep the calf a way.There was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean over the mother?s body and was gone Ma Shwe turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk （象鼻）against the rocky bank Then with a huge effort she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to place it on a narrow shelf of rockJust at this moment she fell back into the river If she were carried down it would be certain death I knew as well as she did ,that there was one spot（地点）where she could get up the bank but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf While I was wondering what I could do next I heard the sound of a mother?s love Ma Shwe。

(新课标1)2014高考英语压轴卷(含解析)
2014新课标1高考压轴卷英语第1卷第一局部：听力〔共两节，总分为30分〕略第二局部:阅读理解(共两节,总分为40分)第一节 (共15小题; 每一小题2分, 总分为30分)阅读如下短文，从每题所给的四个选项〔A,B,C和D〕中，选出最优选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.AA rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below l6℃. Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate. Without the forest cover，these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere，warming the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns，potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.In the past hundred years，humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources〔资源〕：land for crops，wood for paper and other products，land for raising farm animals. This action affects the environment as a whole. For example，a lot of carbon dioxide〔二氧化碳〕in the air comes from burning the rainforests. People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit.There are two main reasons for this. Firstly，when people cut down trees，generally they can only use the land for a year or two. Secondly，cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now，but in the long run it actually reduces the world’s wood supply.Rainforests are often called the world’s drug store. More than 25％ of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests. However，fewer than l％of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value. It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the world’s shrinking rainforests.21. What does the word “this〞 underlined in the third paragraph refer to?A. We will lose much more than we can gain.B. Humans have begun destroying rainforests.C. People have a strong desire for resources.D. Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests.22. It can be inferred from the text thatA. we can get enough resources without rainforestsB. there is great medicine potential in rainforestsC. we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained landD. the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns23. What might be the best title for the text?A. How to Save RainforestsB. How to Protect NatureC. Rainforests and the EnvironmentD. Rainforests and Medical DevelopmentBThe brown widow spider became established in Southern California in early 2000 and has become part of the local spider family in urban Los Angeles and San Diego. The brown widow spider is continuing its expansion in Southern California and could possibly move northward into Central California.The brown widow is suspected to have evolved in Africa although it was first described from South America, which adds confusion as to where it might have originated. Itis a tropical and subtropical spider having established populations in Hawaii, Florida, parts of Australia, South Africa and Japan. In North America, the brown widow was restricted for many decades to the Florida peninsula. However, around the year 2000, it started showing up in other GulfCoast states. Brown widows are now known from Texas to Georgia and South Carolina.The brown widow builds its web in protected sites around homes and in woody vegetation with branches. Some typical sites selected by brown widows for web building are empty containers such as buckets and nursery pots, mail boxes, entry way corners, under eaves, storage closets and garages, undercarriages of motor vehicles that are stationary for long periods, and the undersides of outdoor furniture. They choose places that are more exposed than sites chosen by black widows and therefore, appear to be at higher risk for interactions with humans as far as bites are concerned. One recent study demonstrates that the brown widow spider is less poisonous than other widow species. The reason for the weaker effect of brown widow bites on humans is possibly because the brown widow does not have much poison as its larger relatives, but it is really a threat to humans as to its poison. The two major symptoms of a brown widow bite were that the bite hurt when it was given and it left a red mark. These two symptoms are not much different from the bite of normal household spiders. There is no specific information regarding the control of brown widows by farm chemicals. Most current advice is what is used for controlling spiders in general. Therefore, most commercially available farm chemicals should work on brown widows. Avoiding a mess of the house and the garage should reduce nest sites for them. Also, one should store garage items in plastic bags where there might be interactions with spiders. These items include rarely worn garments such as gardening clothes and gloves, recreational items like sports equipment (i.e., baseball gloves) and other items where spiders can crawl up into holes where fingers can be inserted.24. The author wrote this article to _______.A. announce the result of a research on spidersB. introduce the ways to get rid of the spidersC. report a new finding of the widow speciesD. warn readers against the brown widow25. From the passage we can conclude that _______.A. brown widows are spreading northwardB. the brown widow originated from AfricaC. brown widows now can be found in all countriesD. there used to be no brown widows in North America26. The third paragraph is mainly about _______.A. the brown widow’s web buildingB. the characteristics of the brown widowC. the habitat preferences of the brown widowD. the brown widow’s threaten to human beings27. It can be inferred that _______.A. brown widows can be killed with any farm chemicalsB. at present people can only control brown widow spidersC. the brown widow has more poison than the black widowD. victims bitten by the brown widow needn’t see the doctorCThe opera house in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is one of the most beautiful in the United states. It is small and open, with one roof over the stage where singers perform and another roof over part of the audience. This opera house in the mountain is one of the best in the country, which may seem surprising because performances are only given during the seven weeks in summer, and because Santa Fe is a very small city.One reason why the Santa Fe Opera is so good is that it attracts many excellent youngsingers. They all hope to sing in famous opera houses like Metropolitan in New York someday, and they work hard to become well-known during the summer. The musicians and directors are experts who come from the best orchestras(管弦乐队) and operas in the country during their vacations. They enjoy working there because they like to live in Santa Fe, which is near both the mountains and the desert. It is very beautiful there in summer.The state government of New Mexico advertises the Santa Fe Opera in newspapers all over the country, and a great many tourists come to New Mexico because of the opera. Still, most of the audience does come from Santa Fe and other nearby cities, and all the seats in the theater are sold for every show.There is only one thing that some people do not like about the Santa Fe Opera, and that is the cold weather. Because the theater is open, performances cannot start before it gets da rk at nine o’clock in the evening, and then the mountain air becomes very cool. Sometimes people complain about the cold air, but because the operas are good, these people come back again wearing warm coats.28. This passage mainly introduces _______.A. a mountain cityB. young musiciansC. an opera houseD. the tourism in Santa Fe29. Yong singers come to perform in Santa Fe Opera because _______.A. the music quality is highB. they enjoy the climate thereC. they want to be famousD. they like the scenery there30. It seems surprising that Santa Fe becomes famous because _______.A. it is only a very small placeB. it is between the mountain and desertC. all the seats are sold for every showD. musicians there are from the best orchestras31. From the passage, we can learn that _______.A. the opera house is open without any roofsB. musicians always spend vacations in Santa FeC. the government advertises to attract more musiciansD. performances are held in Santa Fe only after it is darkDMy father was 44 and knew he wasn’t going to make it to 45. He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in my heart. One part always stands out. “Right now, you are pretending to be a time-killer. But I know that one day, you will do something great that will set you among the very best.〞 Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe in myself. “You will do something great.〞He didn’t know what that would be, and neither did I, but at times in my life when I’ve felt proud of myself, I remember his words and wish he were here so I could ask. “Is this what you were talking about, Dad? Should I keep going?〞A long way from 12 now, I realize he would have been proud when I made any progress. Lately, though, I’ve come to believe he’d want me to move on to what comes next: to be proud of and believe in, somebody else. It’s time to start writing my own l etters to my children. Our children look to us with the same unanswered question we had. Our kids don’t hold back because they’re afraid to fail. They’re only afraid of failing us. They don’t worry about being disappointed. Their fear ----as mine was until my father’s letter----is of being a disappointment.Give your children permission to succeed. They’re waiting for you to believe in them.I always knew my parents loved me. But trust me: That belief will be more complete, that love will be more real, and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts; “Don’t worry; you’ll do something great.〞 Nothaving that blessing from their parents may be the only thing holding them back.32. We learn from the text that the author .A. lost his father when he was youngB. worked hard before he read his father’s letterC. asked his father permission to believe in himselfD. knew exactly what great thing his father wanted him to do33. What does the author tell us in the 3rd paragraph?A. Children need their parents’ letters.B. Children are afraid to be disappointed.C. His children’s fear of failure held them back.D. His father’s letter removed his fear of failing his parents.34. Which of the following is true of the author?A. He got no access to success.B. He wrote back to his father at 12.C. He was sure his parents loved him.D. He once asked his father about the letter.35. The main purpose of the text is to _______.A. describe children’s thinkingB. answer some questions children haveC. stress the importance of communicationD. advise parents to encourage their children第二节〔共5小题；每一小题2分，总分为10分〕根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最优选项。

Dr. Christopher Wilk is a member of a small group of elevator experts who consider this a misunderstanding. Without the elevator, they point out, there could be no downtown skyscrapers or tall buildings, and city life as we know it would be impossible. In that sense, they argue, the elevator’s role in American history has been no less significant than that of cars. In fact, according to Wilk, the car and the elevator have been locked in a “secret war” for over a century, with cars making it possible for people to spread horizontally (水平地), and elevators pushing them toward life in close groups of towering vertical (垂直的) columns.If we tend to ignore the significance of elevators, it might be because riding in them tends to be such a brief, boring, and even awkward experience—one that can involve unexpectedly meeting people with whom we have nothing in common, and a n unpleasant awareness of the fact that we’re hanging from a cable in a long passage.In a new book, Lifted, German journalist and cultural studies p rofessor Andreas Bernard directed all his attention to this experience, studying the origins of elevator and its relationship to humankind and finding that riding in an elevator has never been a totally comfortable experience. “After 150 years, we are still not used to i t,” Bernard said. “We still have not exactly learned to cope with th e mixture of closeness and displeasure.” That mixture, according to Bernard, sets the elevator ride apart from just about every other situation we find ourselves in as we go about our lives.Today, as the world’s urban population explodes, and cities become more crowded, taller, and more crowded, America’s total number of elevators—900,000 at last count, according to Elevator World magazine’s “2014 Vertical Transportation Industry”—are a force that’s becoming more important than ever. And for the people who really, really love them, it seems like high time that we looked seriously at just what kind of force they are.67. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. The general view of elevators.B. The particular interests of experts.C. The desire for a remarkable machine.D. The enthusiasm for transport vehicles.68. T he author’s purpose in mentioning cars is ______.A. to contrast their functions with elevators’B. to emphasize the importance of elevatorsC. to reveal their secret war against elevatorsD. to explain people’s preference for elevators69. According to Prof. Bernard, what has made the elevator ridedifferent from other life experiences?A. Vertical direction.B. Lack of excitement.C. Little physical space.D. Uncomfortable conditions.70.

with children with disabilities．I learned that shouting and threats of punishment would result in a disaster．Coming up against their behaviour could only make the job harder and their behaviour more extreme．I found something that worked，though．There was a very naughty boy in the nursery and a teacher who was generally very confident with the children was asked to take charge of him．One day the boy joined a session in the room next to mine．His appearance created an atmosphere of tension．He spent the entire session running around，hitting and kicking，and destroying property．I was in the craft room working with some other children when my co﹣worker told me that this boy's teacher was in tears，and could not get control of the situation．As we were talking，the boy ran in．I told my co﹣worker that I would take care of him．I closed the door．He was full of energy，throwing things around and making a huge mess．But I could see that he was doing all these to annoy me．He needed connection，and this was the only way he knew how to ask for it．So I sat back down and kept quiet．Then he slowed down and began making a rocket．I talked to him about it．We continued like this for a few minutes before I slipped into the conversation："So what happened today？"It was purely a question，no blame or anger in my tone．I believe that if I had criticized him，the gate that was slowly opening would have shut firmly closed．He told me that the teacher didn't let him do what he knew well due to safety but asked him to do what he disliked．He also admitted that he had enjoyed making her runaround and saw it as a game．I explained that his teacher had not seen it as a game and was very upset．This again was stated simply as a fact．I suggested that next time he had a session，he talk about what he hoped to do at the start，which might be easier for everyone．He agreed and was quiet for a moment．Then he looked at me with tears in his eyes before quietly asking if he could go to find his teacher to apologize．51．The boy made trouble for his teacher because he．A．was accused of destroying propertyB．was told not to yell at other childrenC．was made to do things against his willD．was blamed for creating an air of tension52．Why didn't the author do anything about the boy's bad behavior at first？A．She didn't want to make it worse．B．She didn't mind the huge mess at all．C．She was tired of shouting and threats．D．She hadn't thought of a coping strategy．53．The author managed to get the boy to talk to her by．A．playing games with himB．giving him a good suggestionC．describing his teacher's feelingsD．avoiding making critical remarks54．Why did the boy have tears in his eyes in the end？A．He was sorry about his reputation．B．He was regretful about his behavior．C．He was fearful of the author's warning．D．He was sad for the author's misunderstanding．55．（8分）London's newest skyscraper （摩天大楼）is called the Shard and it cost about 430 million pounds to build．At a height of almost 310metres，it is the tallestbuilding in Europe．The Shard has completely changed the appearance of London．However，not everyone thinks that it is a change for the better．The Shard was designed by the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano．When he began designing the Shard for London，Piano wanted a very tall building that looked like a spire （尖顶）．He wanted the glass surfaces to reflect the sky and the city．The sides of the building aren't regular．So the building has an unusual shape．It looks like a very thin，sharp piece of broken glass．And that is how the building got the name：the Shard．Piano says that the spire shape of the Shard is part of a great London tradition．The shape reminds him of the spires of the churches of London or the tall masts （桅杆）of the ships that were once on the river Thames．The Shard has 87floors．At the top，there is an observatory．At the moment the building is empty，but eventually there will be a five﹣star hotel．There will also be top quality restaurants，apartments and offices．Before building work began，a lot of people didn't want the Shard though the plans were approved．Now they are still unhappy about the Shard．Some critics say that such a tall skyscraper might be good in a city like New York，but not in London．They say that the best thing about the Shard is its spire shape．But that is the only thing．There is no decoration，only flat surfaces．The Egyptians did that 4，500years ago．They also think the Shard is too big for London．It destroys the beauty of the city．Other critics don't like what the Shard seems to represent．They say that the Shard shows how London is becoming more unequal．Only very rich people can afford to buy the expensive private apartments and stay in the hotel．But the people who live near the Shard are among the poorest in London．So the Shard seems a symbol of the division in society between the very rich and the poor．The Shard now dominates the London skyline．It is not certain，however，that ordinary London citizens will ever accept it as a valuable addition to the city．55．London's newest skyscraper is called the Shard because of．A．its costB．its sizeC．its shapeD．its height56．When he designed the Shard，Piano wanted it to．A．change London's skylineB．inherit London's traditionC．imitate the Egyptian styleD．attract potential visitors57．The critics who refer to social division think the Shard．A．is only preferred by the richB．is intended for wealthy peopleC．is far away from the poor areaD．is popular only with Londoners58．Which would be the best title for the passage？A．The Shard：Cheers and ClapsB．The Shard：Work of a Great ArchitectC．The Shard：New Symbol of London？D．The Shard：A Change for the Better？59．（8分）Working with a group of baboons （狒狒）in the Namibian desert，Dr．Alecia Carter of the Department of Zoology，Cambridge University set baboons learning tasks involving a novel food and a familiar food hidden in a box．Some baboons were given the chance to watch another baboon who already knew how to solve the task，while others had to learn for themselves．To work out how brave or anxious the baboons were，Dr．Carter presented them either with a novel food or a threat in the form of a model of a poisonous snake．She found that personality had a major impact on learning．The braver baboons learnt，but the shy ones did not learn the task although they watched the baboon perform the task of finding the novel food just as long as the brave ones did．Ineffect，despite being made aware of what to do，they were still too shy to do what the experienced baboon did．The same held true for anxious baboons compared with calm ones．The anxious individuals learnt the task by observing others while those who were relaxed did not，even though they spent more time watching．This mismatch between collecting social information and using it shows that personality plays a key role in social learning in animals，something that has previously been ignored in studies on how animals learn to do things．The findings are significant because they suggest that animals may perform poorly in cognitive （认知的）tasks not because they aren't clever enough to solve them，but because they are too shy or nervous to use the social information．The findings may impact how we understand the formation of culture in societies through social learning．If some individuals are unable to get information from others because they don't associate with the knowledgeable individuals，or they are too shy to use the information once they have it，information may not travel between all group members，preventing the formation of a culture based on social learning．59．What is the first paragraph mainly about？A．The design of Dr．Carter's research．B．The results of Dr．Carter's research．C．The purpose of Dr．Carter's research．D．The significance of Dr．Carter's research．60．According to the research，which baboons are more likely to complete a new learning task？A．Those that have more experience．B．Those that can avoid potential risks．C．Those that like to work independently．D．Those that feel anxious about learning．61．Which best illustrates the"mismatch"mentioned in Paragraph 4？A．Some baboons are intelligent but slow in learning．B．Some baboons are shy but active in social activities．C．Some baboons observe others but don't follow them．D．Some baboons perform new tasks but don't concentrate．62．Dr．Carter's findings indicate that our culture might be formed through．A．storing informationB．learning from each otherC．understanding different peopleD．travelling between social groups．63．（8分）You've flown halfway around the world；you've sniffed out this place that nobody in Falongland or Thailand seems to have ever heard of；so what on earth is there to do here？You consider this question as you sink into an old wooden beach chair that holds you above the sand．It was a long journey from Bangkok to Huaplee．By the time you found the bus station and got yourself sorted out，it took almost as long as the flight from Falongland．Huaplee is located just south of Hua Hin，about two hundred kilometres from Bangkok，down the west side of the Gulf of Thailand．Not many tourists find this place，and the ones that do wonder if finding it has been their purpose all along．There's an apparent laziness that surrounds you here．It's what this place offers，and it's free of charge．The small waves that tap the shoreline seem to slow everything down．You settle into your beach chair in preparation for a long rest．You sit there and watch the sea．It's early afternoon，so the cook comes out and asks what you'd like to eat this evening．Before long he's rushed off to the market to buy the ingredients for whatever it was that you ordered﹣every meal fresh and to order．No menu here．There is no poolside noise here but just that wonderfully warm，clear blue sea．There's no street noise．The only sounds are the murmurs of nature．For now you just count your blessings （福祉），listing them in the sand with your toe（脚趾）．You don't have to worry about being late for work．You don't have to do anything．The beach to your right stretches off to the horizon （地平线），slowly narrowing to nothingness only to re﹣emerge again on your left，now steadily widening until it covers the chair beneath you．Sand to your left and sand to your right；it's unbroken，endless．No start，no end，just sand，sun，and peace．Step off it，and you re﹣enter the world of traffic，stress，work，and hurry．Normally you're the type who can't sit still for more than ten minutes，but you're on Huaplee Lazy Beach now and，in the right frame of mind，it stretches all the way around the world．"How could it take me so long to find it？"you wonder．63．When the author first went to Huaplee Beach，．A．he found it unworthwhileB．he failed to sort himself outC．he became sensitive to smellD．he had difficulty in finding it64．What is special about the food service at Huaplee Beach？A．No menu．B．Free food．C．Self service．D．Quick delivery．65．In the author's opinion，a tourist can enjoy Huaplee Beach most when he．A．sits in a beach chairB．forgets his daily routineC．plans a detailed scheduleD．draws pictures in the sand66．What does the author imply by his question at the end of the passage？A．He shouldn't have counted his blessings．B．He should have understood the wonder of nature．C．He shouldn't have spent so much time on the trip．D．He should have come to the place earlier．67．（8分）For most city people，the elevator is an unremarkable machine that inspires none of the enthusiasm or interest that Americans afford trains，jets，and even bicycles．Dr．Christopher Wilk is

with children with disabilities．I learned that shouting and threats of punishment would result in a disaster．Coming up against their behaviour could only make the job harder and their behaviour more extreme．I found something that worked，though．There was a very naughty boy in the nursery and a teacher who was generally very confident with the children was asked to take charge of him．One day the boy joined a session in the room next to mine．His appearance created an atmosphere of tension．He spent the entire session running around，hitting and kicking，and destroying property．I was in the craft room working with some other children when my co﹣worker told me that this boy's teacher was in tears，and could not get control of the situation．As we were talking，the boy ran in．I told my co﹣worker that I would take care of him．I closed the door．He was full of energy，throwing things around and making a huge mess．But I could see that he was doing all these to annoy me．He needed connection，and this was the only way he knew how to ask for it．So I sat back down and kept quiet．Then he slowed down and began making a rocket．I talked to him about it．We continued like this for a few minutes before I slipped into the conversation："So what happened today？"It was purely a question，no blame or anger in my tone．I believe that if I had criticized him，the gate that was slowly opening would have shut firmly closed．He told me that the teacher didn't let him do what he knew well due to safety but asked him to do what he disliked．He also admitted that he had enjoyed making her runaround and saw it as a game．I explained that his teacher had not seen it as a game and was very upset．This again was stated simply as a fact．I suggested that next time he had a session，he talk about what he hoped to do at the start，which might be easier for everyone．He agreed and was quiet for a moment．Then he looked at me with tears in his eyes before quietly asking if he could go to find his teacher to apologize．51．The boy made trouble for his teacher because he．A．was accused of destroying propertyB．was told not to yell at other childrenC．was made to do things against his willD．was blamed for creating an air of tension52．Why didn't the author do anything about the boy's bad behavior at first？A．She didn't want to make it worse．B．She didn't mind the huge mess at all．C．She was tired of shouting and threats．D．She hadn't thought of a coping strategy．53．The author managed to get the boy to talk to her by．A．playing games with himB．giving him a good suggestionC．describing his teacher's feelingsD．avoiding making critical remarks54．Why did the boy have tears in his eyes in the end？A．He was sorry about his reputation．B．He was regretful about his behavior．C．He was fearful of the author's warning．D．He was sad for the author's misunderstanding．55．（8分）London's newest skyscraper （摩天大楼）is called the Shard and it cost about 430 million pounds to build．At a height of almost 310metres，it is the tallestbuilding in Europe．The Shard has completely changed the appearance of London．However，not everyone thinks that it is a change for the better．The Shard was designed by the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano．When he began designing the Shard for London，Piano wanted a very tall building that looked like a spire （尖顶）．He wanted the glass surfaces to reflect the sky and the city．The sides of the building aren't regular．So the building has an unusual shape．It looks like a very thin，sharp piece of broken glass．And that is how the building got the name：the Shard．Piano says that the spire shape of the Shard is part of a great London tradition．The shape reminds him of the spires of the churches of London or the tall masts （桅杆）of the ships that were once on the river Thames．The Shard has 87floors．At the top，there is an observatory．At the moment the building is empty，but eventually there will be a five﹣star hotel．There will also be top quality restaurants，apartments and offices．Before building work began，a lot of people didn't want the Shard though the plans were approved．Now they are still unhappy about the Shard．Some critics say that such a tall skyscraper might be good in a city like New York，but not in London．They say that the best thing about the Shard is its spire shape．But that is the only thing．There is no decoration，only flat surfaces．The Egyptians did that 4，500years ago．They also think the Shard is too big for London．It destroys the beauty of the city．Other critics don't like what the Shard seems to represent．They say that the Shard shows how London is becoming more unequal．Only very rich people can afford to buy the expensive private apartments and stay in the hotel．But the people who live near the Shard are among the poorest in London．So the Shard seems a symbol of the division in society between the very rich and the poor．The Shard now dominates the London skyline．It is not certain，however，that ordinary London citizens will ever accept it as a valuable addition to the city．55．London's newest skyscraper is called the Shard because of．A．its costB．its sizeC．its shapeD．its height56．When he designed the Shard，Piano wanted it to．A．change London's skylineB．inherit London's traditionC．imitate the Egyptian styleD．attract potential visitors57．The critics who refer to social division think the Shard．A．is only preferred by the richB．is intended for wealthy peopleC．is far away from the poor areaD．is popular only with Londoners58．Which would be the best title for the passage？A．The Shard：Cheers and ClapsB．The Shard：Work of a Great ArchitectC．The Shard：New Symbol of London？D．The Shard：A Change for the Better？59．（8分）Working with a group of baboons （狒狒）in the Namibian desert，Dr．Alecia Carter of the Department of Zoology，Cambridge University set baboons learning tasks involving a novel food and a familiar food hidden in a box．Some baboons were given the chance to watch another baboon who already knew how to solve the task，while others had to learn for themselves．To work out how brave or anxious the baboons were，Dr．Carter presented them either with a novel food or a threat in the form of a model of a poisonous snake．She found that personality had a major impact on learning．The braver baboons learnt，but the shy ones did not learn the task although they watched the baboon perform the task of finding the novel food just as long as the brave ones did．Ineffect，despite being made aware of what to do，they were still too shy to do what the experienced baboon did．The same held true for anxious baboons compared with calm ones．The anxious individuals learnt the task by observing others while those who were relaxed did not，even though they spent more time watching．This mismatch between collecting social information and using it shows that personality plays a key role in social learning in animals，something that has previously been ignored in studies on how animals learn to do things．The findings are significant because they suggest that animals may perform poorly in cognitive （认知的）tasks not because they aren't clever enough to solve them，but because they are too shy or nervous to use the social information．The findings may impact how we understand the formation of culture in societies through social learning．If some individuals are unable to get information from others because they don't associate with the knowledgeable individuals，or they are too shy to use the information once they have it，information may not travel between all group members，preventing the formation of a culture based on social learning．59．What is the first paragraph mainly about？A．The design of Dr．Carter's research．B．The results of Dr．Carter's research．C．The purpose of Dr．Carter's research．D．The significance of Dr．Carter's research．60．According to the research，which baboons are more likely to complete a new learning task？A．Those that have more experience．B．Those that can avoid potential risks．C．Those that like to work independently．D．Those that feel anxious about learning．61．Which best illustrates the"mismatch"mentioned in Paragraph 4？A．Some baboons are intelligent but slow in learning．B．Some baboons are shy but active in social activities．C．Some baboons observe others but don't follow them．D．Some baboons perform new tasks but don't concentrate．62．Dr．Carter's findings indicate that our culture might be formed through．A．storing informationB．learning from each otherC．understanding different peopleD．travelling between social groups．63．（8分）You've flown halfway around the world；you've sniffed out this place that nobody in Falongland or Thailand seems to have ever heard of；so what on earth is there to do here？You consider this question as you sink into an old wooden beach chair that holds you above the sand．It was a long journey from Bangkok to Huaplee．By the time you found the bus station and got yourself sorted out，it took almost as long as the flight from Falongland．Huaplee is located just south of Hua Hin，about two hundred kilometres from Bangkok，down the west side of the Gulf of Thailand．Not many tourists find this place，and the ones that do wonder if finding it has been their purpose all along．There's an apparent laziness that surrounds you here．It's what this place offers，and it's free of charge．The small waves that tap the shoreline seem to slow everything down．You settle into your beach chair in preparation for a long rest．You sit there and watch the sea．It's early afternoon，so the cook comes out and asks what you'd like to eat this evening．Before long he's rushed off to the market to buy the ingredients for whatever it was that you ordered﹣every meal fresh and to order．No menu here．There is no poolside noise here but just that wonderfully warm，clear blue sea．There's no street noise．The only sounds are the murmurs of nature．For now you just count your blessings （福祉），listing them in the sand with your toe（脚趾）．You don't have to worry about being late for work．You don't have to do anything．The beach to your right stretches off to the horizon （地平线），slowly narrowing to nothingness only to re﹣emerge again on your left，now steadily widening until it covers the chair beneath you．Sand to your left and sand to your right；it's unbroken，endless．No start，no end，just sand，sun，and peace．Step off it，and you re﹣enter the world of traffic，stress，work，and hurry．Normally you're the type who can't sit still for more than ten minutes，but you're on Huaplee Lazy Beach now and，in the right frame of mind，it stretches all the way around the world．"How could it take me so long to find it？"you wonder．63．When the author first went to Huaplee Beach，．A．he found it unworthwhileB．he failed to sort himself outC．he became sensitive to smellD．he had difficulty in finding it64．What is special about the food service at Huaplee Beach？A．No menu．B．Free food．C．Self service．D．Quick delivery．65．In the author's opinion，a tourist can enjoy Huaplee Beach most when he．A．sits in a beach chairB．forgets his daily routineC．plans a detailed scheduleD．draws pictures in the sand66．What does the author imply by his question at the end of the passage？A．He shouldn't have counted his blessings．B．He should have understood the wonder of nature．C．He shouldn't have spent so much time on the trip．D．He should have come to the place earlier．67．（8分）For most city people，the elevator is an unremarkable machine that inspires none of the enthusiasm or interest that Americans afford trains，jets，and even bicycles．Dr．Christopher Wilk is a member of a small group of elevator experts who consider a misunderstanding．Without the elevator，they point out，there could be no downtown skyscrapers or tall buildings，and city life as we know it would be impossible．In that sense，they argue，the elevator's role in American history has been no less significant than that of cars．In fact，according to Wilk，the car and the elevator have been locked in a"secret war"for over a century，with cars making it possible for people to spread horizontally （水平地），and elevators pushing them toward life in close groups of towering vertical （垂直的）columns．If we tend to ignore the significance of elevators，it might be because riding in them tends to be such a brief，boring，and even awkward experience﹣one that can involve unexpectedly meeting people with whom we have nothing in common，and an unpleasant awareness of the fact that we're hanging from a cable in a long passage．In a new book，Lifted，German journalist and cultural studies professor Andreas Bernard directed all his attention to this experience，studying the origins of elevator and its relationship to humankind and finding that riding in an elevator has never been a totally comfortable experience．"After 150years，we are still not used to it，"Bernard said．"We still have not exactly learned to cope with the mixture of closeness and displeasure．"That mixture，according to Bernard，sets the elevator ride apart from just about every other situation we find ourselves in as we go about our lives．Today，as the world's urban population explodes，and cities become more crowded，taller，and more crowded，America's total number of elevators﹣900，000at last count，according to Elevator World magazine's"2012Vertical Transportation Industry"﹣are a force that's becoming more important than
