It was 10 p.m.—two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy. ―You’ll have to put it back, son,‖ he said.―Dad!‖ cried the boy. ―There will be other fish,‖ said his father. ―Not as big as this one,‖ cried the boy. He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were in sight in the moonlight. He looked again at his father.Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed. He threw the huge bass into the black water. The big fish disappeared. The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish.That was 34 years ago. Today the boy is a successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place.And he was right. He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. But he does see that same fish ... again and again ... every time he has an ethical (道德的) decision to make. For, as his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.56. From the text we know that the father _________.A. didn’t love his sonB. always disagreed with his sonC. disliked the huge fishD. was firm and stubborn57. The successful architect went fishing with his children at the same place because _____.A. they might catch a big fish thereB. it was a most popular fishing spotC. he was taught a moral lesson thereD. their children enjoyed fishing there58. What does the story imply (suggest)?A. It is easy to say something, but difficult to do.B. An ethical decision is always easy to make.C. It’s hard to tell right from wrong sometimes.D. Fishing can help one to make right decisions.BLooking for Teens Interested in Child CareThis is a chance for teens to accompany a child through projects and activities, play with them indoors and outdoors, help with arts and crafts, deliver flyers to homes in the neighborhood,and so on.When: We welcome teen volunteers whenever they are available.How often: Our volunteers determine the amount of time they give and their schedule.Where: Wilder Child Development Center, 911 Lafond Ave. St. PaulLibrary Intern (实习生)Part-time, Temporary$12.48一$13 .87 /per hourProgram: Wilder ResearchResponsibilities: Help with moving to new buildings, record reports and other documents using a specialized library database, get items from area libraries, help library users, help with literature searches, other everyday library chores, and so on.Qualifications: Bachelor's Degree with some library experience or a current Master of Library and Information Science student.

They were examined at the start of the study and again one year later. If kids’ mothers expected them to take more risks and be more rebellious,higher chances of risky behavior were seen. This was also true when kids had bad expectations of themselves.―Sometimes parents expect more negative behavior from their children than they should based on the children’s history of behavior, ‖ Buchanan said.―Parents shouldn’t be naive (无知的) about the possibility of bad behavior,‖ she said,―but it’s also a mista ke to think that children who are well-behaved will naturally become rebellious at the age of 13. ‖―By thinking risktaking or rebelliousness is normal for teenagers and showing that to their children,parents might add to other messages from society that make teenagers feel that they are strange if they are not willing to take risks or break laws,‖ she said.―This can mean,for example,that when parents expect teens to drink before they turn 21 or to do other risky behaviors,kids are less likely to refuse to do so later in their lives.‖On the other hand,parents’ expectations that teens can exhibit good behaviors and refuse to behave badly or to take risks could help reduce the possibility of bad behavior,Buchanan said.―Asa parent,you should put expectations on your children carefully.‖63.What do we know about the study?A.Only mothers were examined.B.Participants were examined twice.C.250 people were examined in the study.D.Christy Buchanan was the only author of the study.64.What does the underlin ed part ―This was also true‖ in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.The kids were more likely to take dangerous behavior.B.The kids would have bad expectations of their parents.C.The kids were likely to go against their mothers.D.Mothers expected their kids to behave badly.65.Children may be more rebellious if________.A.they know parents think risk-taking is normalB.parents put little expectation on themC.they behave well before they turn 13D.they are asked not to take risks66.What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A.Risk-taking is normal for teens.B.Why are my teens behaving badly?C.Don’t expect too much from your teens.D.Bad expectations lead to bad-behaving teens.DAmong various programs, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television.And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one is different in style(风格).But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows.Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of ―rubbish talk‖.The contents on his show are as surprising as can be.For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level.Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people’s lives.Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its top.But Oprah goes in the opposite direction.The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality(质量)of life.Contents are from teaching your children lessons, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society.Jerry ends every show with a ―final word‖.He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show.Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone.The show’s main viewers are middleclass Americans.Most of these people have the time, money, and ability to deal with life’s tough problems.Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of a connection with the young adults of society.These are 18-to-21-year-olds whose main troubles in life include love, relationship, sex, money and drug.They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show’s exploitation.pared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey are __.A. more interesting.B. unusually popular.C. more detailed.D. more formal.68.Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear unpleasant, people who watch the shows____.A.remain interested in them.B.are ready to face up to them.C.remain cold to them.D. are willing to get away from them.69. Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?A.A new type of robot.B.Nation hatred(憎恨).C.Family income planning.D.Street accident.70. We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows_____.A.have become the only ones of its kind.B.exploit the weaknesses in human nature.C.appear at different times of the day.D.attract different people.第三节任务型读写(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)Of the hundreds of self-change techniques that have been suggested over the centuries, perhaps only a dozen are totally different. Researchers have tried to see which ones work best. Three techniques deserve special mention: they’re powerful, simple and easy to learn. what’s more, individuals who have made successful changes in their lives—changes in eating habits, career paths, coping strategies, and so on—often rely on one or more of the three techniques.To get yourself started in a new direction, try the Three M’s:Modify(改变)your environmentThe power of modifying one’s space has been well displayed in studies since it was reported in the 1960s for the first time. Psychologist Richard Stuart showed in the 1960s that overweight women could lose pounds by mo difying both their eating behavior and ―stimulus environment‖ —for example, eating from smaller plates and confining all food to the kitchen. People who have never tried this are astonished by the enormous effect it often has. I’ve known several people wh o have overcome nail-biting simply by buying 50 nail files and distributing them everywhere: in their pockets, their desks and their bedrooms. With a nail file always within reach, they tended to groom rather than bite. To change yourself, change your world.Monitor your behaviorI’ve been reading research studies on self-monitoring for 20 years, and I’ve conducted some myself. The fact is, if you monitor what you do, you’ll probably do better.Weigh yourself regularlyand you may well start to lose weight. Keep a record of what you eat and you’ll probably start eating more wisely. A study by Canadian researchers showed that teenagers arrived more promptly at a swim practice when they were given an attendance sheet to record their arrival times. Sonya Carr and Rebecca Punzo reported that self-monitoring improves academic performance of emotionally disturbed children in reading, mathematics and spelling. Dozens of studies have similar results, all inspired by heightening our awareness of our behavior.Make commitmentsWhen you commit yourself to another person, you establish a possibility of reinforcement (后效强化);you’ve automatically arranged for a reward if you stick to it and a punishment if you don’t. It puts some pressure on you, and that’s often just what yo u need. For instance, if you want to exercise more, arrange to do it with a friend. If you don’t show up, your friend will get angry, and that may be just the ticket to keeping you punctual (准时的). In 1994 Dana Putnam and other researchers showed that patients who made written commitments were far more likely to take prescribed medicine than patients who hadn’t There’s good news here for all of us. We can meet many of the demands and overcome many of the challenges of life with simple skills that anyone can master and that don’t requirewillpower-in other words, with skill, not will.单项:Keys: 21 – 25 BCADD 26 – 30 CABCA 31 – 35 AACCA完型:Keys: 36 –40BCACD 41–45 ACBBD 46–50ADCBA 51– 55CBDAD阅读:56 – 58 DCA 59 – 62 DDCB 63 – 66 BAAD 67 – 70 BACD任务型读写:81.similar 82. successful 83. environment 84. benefit 85. within86.

My marriage was in trouble, I was pregnant (怀孕的) and not particularly well and I didn’t have much money. Looking back I think I was also a bit depressed, but I had to get on with taking care of my daughter the best I could.One day I thought I would take my daughter to the park for a nice day as she liked there, and I thought it was a nice thing to do. I decided to walk because the bus was expensive, so it took us a long time to get there. When we finally got there, immediately my daughter began to cry. She was cold, she was thirsty, and she wanted to go home. To be honest, I had not prepared properly. I didn’t even have any money to buy a drink or to take the bus back home. I was so frustrated and cross with myself that my dream of a nice day failed. I started walking back home (it was nearly 2 miles), and my daughter would not stop crying. I felt so miserable and cross with(生…的气)myself and my life that I started crying too.At that point a car stopped and a gentleman offered us a lift. He took us home, and seemed really concerned-he even offered me all his change! The kindness of this stranger to a stranger like me really made me feel better. I never saw him again and I don‘t know who he is but he really helped me out that day, so I just want to say thank you.21.The writer writes the passage in order to________.A.tell us how she got through her difficult timeB.tell us what kind of life she and her daughter once livedC.tell us a journey she and her daughter had without moneyD.express her sincere thanks for the driver who once helped her22.Why did the writer go through a difficult time when her daughter was about 2 years old? A.Because her daughter was too young and noisy and she didn’t know how to care for her. B.Because she loved her daughter too much and took care of her as best as she could. C.Because she was worried about her own health.D.Because there is something wrong with her marriage, health and money.23.What finally caused the writer to cry?A.Her own poor situation.B.Her feeling sorry to her daughter.C.The lack of money.D.The failure of her dream of a nice day.24.According to the passage, we can infer that________.A.the writer could afford a bus ticket at that timeB.the writer will never forget the kindness given by the driverC.the writer received the driver’s change and bought drinks for her daughterD.the driver knew the writer and her daughterB篇There are stories about two U.S. presidents,Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren,which attempt to explain the American English term OK. We don’t know if either story is true,but they are both interesting. The first explanation is based on the fact that President Jackson had very little education. In fact,he had difficulty reading and writing. When important papers came to Jackson,he tried to read them and then had his assistants explain what they said. If he approved of a paper. he would write “all correct” on it. The problem was that he didn’t know how to spell. So what he really wrote was “ol korekt”. After a while,he shortened that term to “OK”.The second explanation is based on the place where President Van Buren was born,Kinderhook,New York. Van Bnren’s friends organized a club to help him become President They caned the clubthe Old Kinderhook Club,and anyone who supported Van Buren was called “OK”.25.The author __________.A. believes both of the storiesB. doesn’t believe a word of the storiesC is not sure whether the stories are trueD. is telling the stories just for fun26. According to the passage,President Jackson_________A. couldn’t draw up any documents at allB. didn’t like to read important papers by himselfC. often had his assistants sign documents for himD .wasn’t good at reading,writing or spelling27.According to the first story, the term “OK”___________A. was approved of by President JacksonB. was the title of some Official documentsC. was first used by President JacksonD. was an old way to spell “all correct’’28. According to the second story,the term ‘‘OK”____________A. was the short way to say ‘‘old Kinderhook Club”B. meant the place where President Van Buren was bornC. was the name of Van Buren’s clubD. was used to call Van Buren ’s supporters in the election三、短文改错(每小题2分,满分20分)Christine was just a girl in one of my classes.

高二英语限时训练I、阅读理解AFrom little hummingbirds (蜂鸟) to big wild geese, roughly half of the world’s more than 10, 000 bird species migrate. Longer wings and strong flying muscles often help these birds fly in the air for a long distance. But a new study of nearly all bird species suggests many migrators share another unexpected flight aid: lighter-colored feathers.Researchers say that having more lightly colored feathers than non-migrating birds may help these long-distance flyers stay cool as they work hard under the hot sun to fly.It’s known that color can help birds hide from some dangerous animals which can hunt them as food, or attract mates by standing out. But color has delicate effects too, including regulating temperature by absorbing or reflecting light, says Kaspar Delhey. For example, bird eggs laid in colder climates tend to be darker, which may help keep them warm.Migrating birds push their bodies to the physiological limit, which creates more heat. Some species dealing with the problem by flying to cooler air during daytime. “If overheating is a problem in migratory birds, another way of dealing with that would be to evolve lighter colors that absorb less heat,” Delhey says.Delhey and his colleagues analyzed over 20, 000 pictures of 10, 618 bird species, ranking wing lightness for each species and comparing that with how far the birds fly. On average, lightness slightly increased with migratory distance, the team found. The longest-distance migrators were about 4 percent lighter than no-migrators, an effect that wasn’t explained by size, climate or habitat type for different species.“It’s not a big difference,” Delhey says, noting that many migrators are darkly colored, perhaps for reasons unrelated to flight. But the trend was significantly consistent.1.What advantage of the migrators is beyond people’s knowledge?A.They have large groups. B.They have longer wings.C.They have strong bodies. D.They have lighter-colored feathers.2.Why does the author mention the example of the bird eggs?A.To indicate that the dark colors can reflect light.B.To explain why birds keep eggs warm in cold climates.C.To prove that color plays a role in adjusting temperatures.D.To show how color helps birds avoid being seen by hunters.3.What problem do migrators have to deal with during migration?A.The lack of food. B.The long distance.C.The cooler and cooler climate. D.The increasing body temperature.4.How did the researchers get their conclusion?A.By checking figures. B.By making comparisons.C.By making questionnaires. D.By drawing pictures.BIn principle, it sounds simple: eat less and move more. This dietary advice for handling obesity has been around for decades. Yet, despite all the calorie counting, dieting and exercising, worldwide obesity rates just keep soaring up. In a recent paper, researchers question the basic assumption of whether taking in more calories than you burn really is the primary cause of obesity. They argue that the evidence actually points the other way: we are driven to overeat because we are getting fatter.This may seem incredible, but consider the rapid adolescent growth. As their growth rate speeds up, teenagers may eat much more than they used to. Does this “overeating” cause the rapid growth?Or does the rapid growth make teens hungrier so they eat more? Clearly the latter, as adults won’t grow taller, no matter how much they eat. A few hours after eating a high-carb meal, the number of calories in the blood stream drops dramatically, so we get hungrier sooner. From this perspective, the difficulty resisting hunger that so many dieters have isn’t a sign of poor discipline, but rather a biological problem involving how our bodies distribute the calories we consume. A low-calorie, low-fat diet further restricts an already limited supply of energy, worsening hunger without addressing the underlying tendency to store too many calories in body fat. Consequently, weight loss becomes a battle between mind and metabolism (新陈代谢) that most people will probably lose.Although much more research will be needed to test this controversial idea, it is time to question the basic assumptions about cause and effect, calories and weight gain that have dominated our thinking for decades.5.What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A.It is extremely tough to deal with overweight.B.Eating less and moving more will make you lose weight.C.We are forced to eat more food because we are getting fatter.D.Taking in more calories than you burn is the main cause of obesity.6.Why is it difficult for dieters to resist hunger according to the text?A.Because the dieters are fond of eating a high-carb meal.B.Because some of the dieters are weak in self-discipline.C.Because the number of calories in the blood drops dramatically.D.Because the case is more related to the distribution of calories taken in.7.What can we learn about a low-calorie, low-fat diet according to Paragraph 3?A.It causes people to feel hungrier. B.It solves the tendency for too much fat.C.It provides the energy people need. D.It makes people lose their metabolism.8.What is the author’s attitude towards the cause and effect between calories and weight gain?A.Supportive. B.Doubtful. C.Objective. D.Indifferent.II、七选五Speaking with people who are suffering is difficult. ____1___ Sometimes it’s just difficult to know what to say. Words fail us. Here are some tips for talking about illness with loved ones.____2___ Visit them, or if that’s not possible, just call them. Don’t worry if you weren’t there in their exact hour of need. It’s important to let them know you’ve been thinking of them and that you regret the delay.Ask specific open questions. Your friend will no doubt have a routine response to “How are you feeling?” So steer away from routine politeness by asking specific open questions, such as, “So much has happened since we last spoke, tell me what’s been going on with you.” ____3____Don’t argue with them. You may indeed believe that drinking herb tea is a cure-all, or a friend of your friend might well have benefited from a dietary change. ____4____ Your friend is likely exhausted and sensitive, so there is no need to contradict their lived experience. Let them lead the conversation about their health, which is a small concession that you should make.Know how to assist them. If you’ve given them enough room to talk, you should have a wealth of information about how to help them. ____5____ Do they like being in the garden? Maybe you’ve been cutting your own lawn and could bring the mower round before you put it away.A.Reach out to your unwell loved one.B.Approach the situation in a gentle manner.C.But remember where you are and why you are there.D.People in pain can often be bad-tempered, distant or greatly in need.E.Your sick friend or relative is literally an expert in what it’s like to live with sickness.F.Specific information such as diagnosis and symptoms is what they are willing to share.G.Make suggestions to your friends based on your close listening and knowledge of their history.III、语法填空Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan Province in China, ____1____ (recognise) as “the land of abundance” for a long time. With rich cultural heritage, Chengdu is one of the ____2____ (hot) destinations for tourists in China. For tourists like me, pandas are its top ____3____ (attract).So it was a great honour to be invited to the non-profit Panda Base, ____4____the ticket money helps pay for research. I was allowed to get up close to these ____5____ (adore) animals at the 600-acre centre. From tomorrow, I will be their UK ambassador. The title will be officially given to me at a ceremony in London. But I made a connection with pandas earlier, ____6____ (date) back to my days on a TV show in the mid-1980s, when I was the first Western TV reporter permitted ____7____ (film) a special unit caring for pandas rescued from starvation in the wild. My ambassadorial duties will include introducing British visitors____8____ the 120-plus pandas at Chengdu and others at a research centre in the misty mountains of Bifengxia.Chengdu is home to the rare giant panda and famous for ____9____ (it) gorgeous scenic spots and numerous historical sites. So if you want to see both the lovely pandas and the breathtaking scenery in one shot at the same time, you should visit Chengdu and enjoy ____10____ it could ever offer.IV、告知信/通知假设你是李华,你的英国笔友John对中国的传统节日非常感兴趣,清明节将至,他发来邮件询问有关清明节的信息,请你用英文给他回一封电子邮件,内容包括:1.节日的时间;2.节日的活动;3.节日的意义。

高二英语40分钟限时训练(提高练)01 解析版一、阅读理解第一节阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
My daughter was being thrown out of the sixth grade. The teacher said, “She may not be up to what we’re trying to accomplish.” He was really saying she didn’t have the intelligence. I got mad because I knew she was smart, just as my father had known I was smart when I was failing in school. We had her tested. I decided to get myself tested as well, and found that the troubles she was having were exactly what I had had — dyslexia. By then I was a successful television writer, and had won an Emmy Award for “The Rockford Files.”If I had known earlier that something beyond my control could explain why I was a low achiever, I may not have worked so hard in my late 20s and early 30s. I was writing and writing. I was working for no other reason than to hear people praise me, because I did badly in all my courses.I once asked a friend who had always gotten an A, “How long did you study for this?” He said, “I didn’t. I just glanced at it.” So he must be smarter. I began to ask, “What will happen to me when I’m not good at anything?” Despite my doubts, I did become successful, and people now say to me, “So you’ve overcome dyslexia.”No. You don’t overcome it, you learn to compensate for it. Some easy things are very hard for me. Most people who go through college read twice as fast as I do. I avoid dialing a phone if I can, because I sometimes have to try three times to get the number right.Despite my weaknesses I view dyslexia as a gift, not a curse (诅咒). Many dyslexics are good at right-brain, abstract thought, and that’s what my kind of creative writing is. And I can write quickly, and can get up to 15 pages a day. Writing is my strength.The real fear I have for dyslexic children is not they have to struggle in school, but that they will quit on themselves before they get out of school. Parents have to create victories for them, whether it’s music, sports or art. You can make your dyslexic child able to say, “Yeah, reading is hard. But I have other things I can do.”1.The writer decided to get himself tested as well because he________.A.wanted to know if they had the same problemB.didn’t believe his daughter had the problemC.had to take a regular medical examinationD.accepted that his daughter was not smart2.We can learn from the second paragraph that the writer________.A.struggled and got better gradesB.didn’t work hard when he was youngC.was praised for overcoming dyslexiaD.was thankful not knowing of dyslexia earlier3.According to the passage, a dyslexic person________.A.is less intelligent B.always fails in schoolC.reads more slowly than normal people D.performs worse in left-brain activities4.What can we learn from the story?A.Clumsy birds have to start flying early.B.God shuts one door but opens another.C.Never judge a person by his appearance.D.No one can make a good coat with bad cloth.【答案】1.A 2.D 3.C 4.B【分析】本文是记叙文。

Moved with pity, the bird threw her a blade of grass, which supported her like a raft, and thus the ant reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in the grass, she heard a man come near. He was walking along barefooted with a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the dove, he wished to kill it.

It teaches people how to face changes in their lives. Now its author Spence Johnson has written a book just for teens. The book tells us that when facing change in our lives, like a new school or new friends, don't be afraid. Instead, use this change to make a better life. The book gives an example of a change at school. A school is changing from having two terms to three terms because there are too many students.Several teens are talking about this. Most of them are unhappy and worried. But Chris is not. He laughs and tells a story about two mice, two “little people” and some cheese.The four are in a maze looking for the cheese. Here, cheese means something important in life, like moving to a new class or getting into college. But they find the cheese is gone. The mice realize that they can’t change what has happened and have to find more che ese. This means finding different dreams. The little people, however, can’t do this. They are afraid of change so they find no cheese.After Chris finishes the story, the friends understand one thing: to get more cheese, move in a new direction quickly. His friends understand how this can be used in the changes all teens face, such as doing well at school or having good relationships or just feeling good about yourself.1.The book Who Moved My Cheese is __________.A.written all over the world B.read across the worldC.sold only in America D.loved only by teens2.What does the text mainly discuss?A.Never change in our life.B.Change whenever you like .C.Change with the changes.D.Pay attention to the changes,3.The underline word “four”(paragraph 3)refers to __________.A.mice and little people B.studentsC.cheese D.readersBOn a freezing cold day, a couple had to move into a small apartment because of their failure in business.The husband worked day and night to support the family butwith no care of his wife.So she thought, “He doesn't love me any more, he just cares about his business ...not me”.One day, she was about to take a shower when he stopped her at the door, “Let me take it first, okay?” “Why not me first?” she asked.“I am tired, honey, you take it later, okay?”She was entirely unhappy.One day, she found nothing to do and turned on his computer.A few words came into her sight.Reading them, she burst into tears.It was his diary:Today, I was quite sad.She asked me why I was always taking the shower first, and I said to her, I was exhausted.She was unhappy.In her mind, I treated her not as well as usual, but what could I do? I was not as rich as before! We moved to the small apartment, and there was only one shower in the bathroom.It was so cold to take a shower in such a cold winter.But I found that if one person took the shower first, the room could get a little warmer.So every day I rushed to the bathroom first.I was thinking that, when she took the shower, the room would get warmer, even if it was only 1℃.Now I cannot give her a comfortable life, take her to good restaurants, or buy expensive dresses for her, but at least, I can give her 1℃ love.4.Why did the couple move to the small apartment?A.Both of them were out of work.B.They wanted to live a better life.C.The man could take better care of his business.D.They were too poor to live in the former house.5.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “exhausted”?A.Devoted.B.Worried.C.Tired.D.Injured.6.What can be inferred from the passage?A.They would live a richer life soon.B.The woman misunderstood her husband.C.The man would care less about his business.D.The woman would get angry after reading the diary.7.What's the best title of the passage?A.A Love Story B.1℃ LoveC.A Suffering Couple D.Fight for the BathroomCSome people will do just about anything to save money.And I am one ofthem.Take my family’s last vacation for example.It was my six-ye arold son’s winter break from school, and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip.The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day.I had meetings in New York, so I had to get back.But that didn’t mean my husband and my son couldn’t stay.I took off for home.The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight.Yes, I encouraged — okay, ordered — them to wait it out a t the airport, to “earn” more Delta Dollars.Our total take: $1,600.Not bad, huh?Now some people may think I’m a bad mother and not such a great wife either.But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar.And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.I’ve made a living looking for the best deals and exposing the worst tricks.I have been the consumer reporter of NBC’s Today show for over a decade.I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide.And I really do what I believe in.I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’s worth.I’m also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants.But I wouldn’t hesitat e to spend on a good haircut.It keeps its shape longer, and it’s the first thing people notice.And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture.Quality lasts.8.Why did Delta give the author’s family credits?A.They took a later flight.B.They had early bookings.C.Their flight had been delayed.D.Their flight had been cancelled.9.What can we learn about the author?A.She rarely misses a good deal.B.She seldom makes a compromise.C.She is very strict with her children.D.She is interested in cheap products.10.What does the author do?A.She’s a teacher.B.She’s a housewife.C.She’s a media person.D.She’s a businesswoman.11.What does the author want to tell us?A.How to expose bad tricks.B.How to reserve airline seats.C.How to spend money wisely.D.How to make a business deal.II. 七选五Have you ever felt sick to your stomach during a test? Have you ever been so worried about something that you ended up with a terrible headache?If so, then you know what it's like to feel stress.You've probably heard people say, “Wow, I'm really stressed out.”12 But children have lots of things going on in their lives that can cause stress, too.What is stress?Stress is what you feel when you are worried or uncomfortable about something.This worry in your mind can make your body feel bad.You may feel angry, frustrated, scared, or afraid --- which can give you a stomachache or a headache.What causes stress?Plenty of things can cause stress in a child's life.13 Good or normal stress might show up when you're called on in class or when you have to give a report.Have you ever gotten butterflies in your stomach or sweaty hands? Those can be signs of good stress.14 For example, you may do a better job on your book report if the anxiety inspires you to prepare well before you get up and read it to the class.But bad stress can happen if the stressful feelings keep going over time.You may not feel well if your parents are fighting, if a family member is sick, if you're having problems at school, or if you're going through anything else that makes you upset every day.15Once you recognize that you're feeling stressed, there are several things you can do.You can try talking about what's bothering you with an adult you trust, like a parent or teacher.16 An adult may have ideas about how to solve whatever is worrying you or making you uncomfortable.A.This kind of stress can help you to get things done.B.Maybe you hear adults say those kinds of things all the time.C.Bring up what's been on your mind and how it makes you feel.D.Everyone experiences stress at times --- adults, teens, and even kids.E.There are ways to reduce stress and manage the stress that's unavoidable.F.That kind of stress isn't going to help you, and it can actually make you sick.G.The trick is to remember that some types of stress are good and others are bad.高二年级英语限时训练三答题时间:30分钟I完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,共30分)An old man had been working for many years for a town.

Gu also organizes a small workshop to teach knitting (编织) to children.Artist Wang Xuejun sets up a stainless-steel mirror at the mall's gate leading to Zizhong Lu. Visitors, including men, are invited to put on lipstick and kiss the mirror, thus kissing themselves.The Beast Floral Shop, a flower shop in Shanghai, contributes two walls of flowers that are made into the shape of a book, named Kiss Book. Artifacts (⼿⼯艺品) of bees and butterflies are fixed among the blossoms, kissing the flowers. The work represents love and harmony in nature.Architect Ma Ke creates a Kiss Bridge with transparent (透明的) acrylic boards and ceramic (陶瓷的)fishbowls. Bridges are often spots for dating lovers in traditional Chinese folk stories and the goldfish in the bowls are witnesses of the lovers' kisses.In the south plaza, an18-meter-high interactive tree-shaped light equipment encourages people to kiss. Each kiss turns a certain light on, reminding audiences of their sweet childhood memories of kisses.At the side of the tree is a counter, in which each kiss is counted and represents a donation to charity organizations.21. What is the main idea of the article?A. It tells people how important kisses are to life.B. It describes what Shanghai Xintiandi Style Mall looks like.C. It introduces an exhibition under the theme “kiss”.D. It introduces various activities in Shanghai Xintiandi Style Mall.22. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?A. people encourage themselves to express their emotions.B. people discourage themselves from expressing their emotions.C. people teach themselves to express their emotions.D. people learn a lot from expressing their emotions.23. What can we learn from the article?A. Most people are interested in Jiang Shan’s artpiece, which brings about a feeling of warmth.B. Most visitors will kiss each other in front of the stainless steel mirror at the gate.C. All the decorations in the mall are aimed at encouraging lovers to express their love bravely.D. The 18-meter-high interactive tree-shaped light equipment will be on for each kiss.24. The article above probably is taken from a ____________.A. text bookB. science and technology magazineC. news websiteD. travel leafletBMarc Briol started his career at the age of 17 as an apprentice (学徒) at a hotel in Germany, but his experience in the kitchen started at 12, when he had to cook his own meals after school. The young chef with Belle-Vue, the European restaurant at the Grand Hyatt Shenzhen, believes a chef has to be honest and true to his food."If you look at the plate, it says exactly what I have done. You cannot cheat. If you try to take a shortcut, you will affect the taste," he says. "It is also what I appreciate in my job ---- direct communication with my customers."At just 23, Briol was appointed chef of Belle-Vue in September, when his enthusiasm and inspiration won recognition."I am so pleased to welcome Marc to lead the culinary (烹饪) team at Belle-Vue. His creativity and passion will bring new inspiration to the restaurant, and create exciting dining experiences that are approachable and fun," says Martin Riehl, executive chef of the hotel.Briol creates and combines classic dishes with his own understanding and his signature dishes are featured in the Best of Belle-Vue selection. Most of the dishes are presented in two colors ---- green and red."It is a nice contrast with the white plate at the moment. And it reminds me of something happy and merry."The colors are updated according to season, and also on request from regular customers. Although Briol has only been in Shenzhen about three months, he has fallen in love with Cantonese food."I love dim sum ---- all the steamed vegetables, chicken soup and black tea."One interesting thing about Shenzhen is how people treat food, he says. "If you go to the local market, you will see things such as snakes, which would belong to the zoo back in my country."He says that in China, everything has a reason. People respect food, which is not always done in Europe."In China, if you eat something, it is because it is healthy for your body."As for the cooking, he says, it is not easy to get raw materials for a European restaurant in Shenzhen."It took me about a month to get the fish I want for my cooking. We had to call Shanghai or Hong Kong to ship the food here," he says. "When I worked in London, the process was much easier."He gets much of his inspiration from food blogs and friends."About 80 percent of my friends come from restaurants, and they are bakers, chefs. We will meet and talk to get new ideas for food." Other sources of inspiration are traveling and cookbooks.During his day off, he will also try to explore new restaurants in Shenzhen."Food is all my life. You have to pay lots of effort to get it done, to improve yourself."25. Marc Briol has ever worked in _________ according to the article.A. France, Germany and ChinaB. Germany, England and ChinaC. France, China and EnglandD. Germany, England and France26. Which sentence can best reflect that Marc Briol loves his career?A. “If you look at the plate, it says exactly what I have done.”B. “It’s also what I appreciate in my job ---- direct communication with my customers.”C. “It’s a nice contrast with white plate at the moment.”D. “Food is all my life.”27. Why is Martin Riehl pleased to have Marc Briol lead the culinary team at Belle-Vue?A. Because he appreciates Marc’s enthusiasm and creativity.B. Because Marc has much experience in cooking.C. Because Marc is honest to his food.D. Because Marc was an appointed chef.28. Marc Briol gets much of his inspiration from many sources EXCEPT ________.A. food blogsB. travelingC. cookbooksD. food colorsCChina faces $176bn bill to clean up air pollutionCleaning up China’s air pollution will cost 1.75 trillion yuan ($176b) between2013 and 2017, a high-ranking environmental official has estimated.Wang Jinnan, deputy head of the Chinese Academy for Environmental Planning, said that the investment ---- part of an anti-pollution "action plan"announced by China's cabinet in September ---- “would drive up GDP by nearlytwo trillion yuan ($202b) and create over two million jobs,” China’s official newswire Xinhua reported.The total cost will be higher than the 2012 GDP of most countries, including Finland, Israel and Portugal.“36.7 percent of the investment, or 640 billion yuan ($64.5b) should go on cleaning up industry, followed by 490 billion yuan (28.2 percent) on cleaner energy sources. Cleaning up motor vehicles will absorb 210 billion yuan,” Xinhua re ported, citing (引⽤) Wang.In 2013, broad areas of China recorded their highest air pollution levels in 52 years, causing widespread anger over the massive environmental disaster shaped by decades of unchecked economic growth.While Beijing has long been known for its pea-soup air, a number of traditionally clearer cities, including Shanghai and Harbin, have registered pollution levels high enough for local authorities to ground flights, close schools and pull cars from the roads.On Friday, Shanghai’s con centration of airborne PM 2.5 – particulate matter small enough to stay deep within the lungs –rose to 214 micrograms per cubic meter, three times China’s national limit. The official Shanghai Environmental Monitoring Center warned children and the elderly to stay indoors.In its five-year action plan, China's State Council promised to reduce the level of airborne particulate matter by at least 10% in major cities by 2017.Yet many smog-related government measures, such as controlling street-side barbecues, have drawn criticism for polishing over the problem. In October, one Beijing official blamed the smog on “the traditional way of cooking Chinese dishes.”In response, many Chinese people have taken measures into their own hands. Face masks have become a fashionstatement; air purifier sales have rapidly increased. An elementary school in north China’s Shijiazhuang, one of the country’s most polluted cities, has begun teaching its students a smog-defying aerobics (健美操) routine involving acupuncture points associated with respiratory(呼吸)health. Last week, a hospital in the southwestern Chinese city Chengdu opened a “smog clinic” to treat air pollution-related diseases such as coughs and asthma; it has been treating roughly a dozen patients a day. "We should not fear smog. It's preventable and curable," says a poster hung by its entrance.29. What is the major cause of the heavy smog in China according to the article?A. The investment in an anti-pollution "action plan" is not enough.B. The economic development has not been carefully checked in the past years.C. Environmental Planning has not been carried out for decades of years.D. The traditional way of cooking Chinese dishes has produced too much smoke.30. To avoid the harm on their health, people suffering from the smog in China are doing the following EXCEPT _______.A. wearing face masks and use air purifiersB. warning children and the elderly not to go outdoorsC. criticizing many smog-related government officialsD. opening “smog clinics” to t reat air pollution-related diseases31. After reading the article, most readers may feel ___________.A. Angry but hopelessB. Tired and indifferent (漠不关⼼)C. Concerned but positiveD. Depressed and annoyedDHi, everybody. Over the past couple months, most of the political headlines you’ve read have probably been about the government shutdown and the launch of the Affordable Care Act(平价医疗法案). And I know that many of you have rightly never been more frustrated with Washington.But if you look beyond those headlines, there are some good things happening in our economy. And that’s been my top priority(优先考虑)since the day I walked into the Oval Office.After decades in which the middle class was working harder and harder just to keep up, and a punishing recession(衰退)that made it worse, we made the tough choices required not just to recover from crisis, but to rebuild on a new foundation for stronger, more durable economic growth.Five years later, we have fought our way back. Our businesses have created 7.8 million new jobs in the past 44 months. Another 200,000 Americans went back to work last month.The American auto industry has come back with more than 350,000 new jobs –-- jobs putting out and selling the high-tech, fuel-efficient cars the world wants to buy. And they’re leading the charge in a business that has added jobs for the first time since the 1990s –-- a big reason why our businesses sell more goods and services “Made in America” than ever befor e.We decided to stop our addiction to foreign oil. And today, we produce more renewable energy than ever, more natural gas than anybody, and for the first time in nearly 20 years, America now produces more oil than we buy from other countries.We decided to fix a broken health care system. And even though the task has been rough, so far, about 500,000 Americans gain health coverage starting January 1st. And by the way, health care costs are growing at the slowest rate in 50 years. And one more thing: since I took office, we’ve cut our deficits (⾚字) by more than half. And that makes it easier to invest in the things that create jobs –-- education, research, and so on.Imagine how much farther along we could be if both parties were working together. Think abo ut what we could do if the few didn’t hold the economy hostage (⼈质) every few months, or waste time on dozens of votes to repeal the Affordable Care Act rather than try to help us fix it.In the weeks ahead, I’ll keep talking about my plan to build a bette r bargain for the middle class. Good jobs. A good education. A chance to buy a home, save, and retire. And yes, the financial security of affordable health care. And I’ll look for any willing partners who want to help.Because of your hard work and tough s acrifices over the past five years, we’re pointed in the right direction. But we’ve got more work to do to keep moving that way.And as long as I’m President, I’ll keep doing everything I can to create jobs, grow the economy, and make sure that everyone who works hard has a chance to get ahead. Thanks, and have a great weekend.32. Which of the following is not the reason for people’s frustration with the government?A. The government shutdownB. Unemployment rateC. The addiction to foreign oilD. Cancelling the Affordable Care Act33. Why does the president mention more goods and services “Made in America”?A. To show that American goods and services are very popular.B. To indicate that American people should be dependent on themselves.C. To show that the employment rate has been increased.D. To show that American auto industry enjoys high technology.34. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “repeal”?A. put an end toB. try hard to fixC. make strongerD. get accustomed to35. According to the speech, which of the following can be implied?A. American people have every reason to feel frustrated with the government.B. Health care costs are growing at the slowest rate in 50 years.C. The president feels sorry that the economy is not moving in the right direction.D.

In my own experience, the people I respectthe most and think about the most are the teachers who demanded (要求) the most discipline (纪律) from their students.I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school. I think she was a good teacherbecause she was a very strict person. I remember very vividly (清晰地) a sign over her classroom door. It was a simple sign that said, “Laborato ry—in this room the first five letters of the word was emphasized (强调), not the last seven.” In other words, I guess, labor(工作) for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches.She prepared her work very carefully and demanded of us to do the same. We got lots of homework from her. Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced, but it continued just the same. She checked our work by stamping her name at the bottom of the papers to show that she had read them.I think sometimes teachers who demand the most are liked the least. But as time goes by, thisdiscipline really seems to benefit (有益于) the students.21. Which of the following is considered a good teacher by the writer?A. A patient teacher.B. An honest teacher.C. A strict teacher.D. A hard-working teacher.22. The teacher put up the sign over her classroom door .A. to remind the students that this room was a laboratoryB. to advise the students to follow the disciplinesC. to warn the students not to be carelessD. to tell the students to work hard in the classroom23. When the teacher’s arm wa s broken, she .A. gave her students the usual amount of homeworkB. gave her students less homeworkC. asked her students to check the homework themselvesD. gave her students more homework24. What’s the writer’s opinion of dis cipline?A. It makes the students dislike their teachers.B. It does good to the students in the long run.C. It’s too much for young children.D. It does more harm than good to the students.BOur surroundings are being polluted faster than man's present efforts to prevent pollution. Time is bringing us more people, and more people will bring us more industry, more cars, larger cities and the growing use of man-made materials.What can explain and solve the problem? The fact is that pollution is caused by man--by his desire for a modern way of life. We make “increasing industrialization” our chief aim. So we are often ready to offer everything:clean air,pure water,good food,our health and the future of our children. There is a constant(连续不断的)flow of people from the countryside into the cities, eager for the benefits of our modern society. But as our technological achievements have grown in the last twenty years,pollution has become a serious problem.Isn't it time we stopped to ask ourselves where we are going--and why? It makes one think of the story of the airline pilot who told his passengers over the loudspeaker, “I've some good news and some bad news. The good news is that we are making rapid progress at 530 miles per hour. The bad news is that we are lost and can't know where we are going.” The sad fact is that this becomes a true story when we speak of our modern society.25. According to the writer,more and more people crowd into large cities because they _______.A. are tired of their present lifeB. want to help find a comfortable place to work inC. hope to change their way of lifeD. wish to enjoy the achievements of the society26. According to the passage,now man values _______ most in their life.A. healthB. the future of the societyC. industryD. beautiful surroundings27. The story about the airline pilot tells us that _______.A. the writer is worried about the future of our societyB. man can hardly know the future of the societyC. people are not satisfied with the development of the societyD. little can be done to get rid of pollution三:语法填空If you want to be successful in changing your habits, you should think about changing your inner beliefs about your habits. For example, your old belief was: “I love cigarette because __1__ makes me feel good and __2__(relax). I need cigarette to be happy and relaxed.” If you keep this belief, you won’ t be able to keep your resolution __3__(stop)smoking for very long.

高二英语限时训练(一)第一节:阅读AThe US will have a new president this fall. Voters will decide between the Democratic candidate (候选人), Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump of the Republicans.But the voting is not a must for each person in the US. So quite a lot of people choose not to vote , especially the young generation. According to Fox News, one-in-five young voters between the ages of 18 and 35 said clearly that they wouldn’t vote for either of the two candidates. Just 12 percent of voters aged 35-54, and only nine percent of voters aged 55 and older said the same thing.This is not only because young people don’t like Clinton or Trump, according to the Fortune magazine. The truth is that they are traditionally less likely to vote than their parents.“Young peopl e are not at an age in their life when they think politics or government has anything to do with them,” said Rodd Freitag, a political science professor at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, US. “But for the older age groups, they have a home, they pa y taxes (税), they care about schools and the community.”Many believe that the civic (公民的) education of an American youth is another reason why they don’t vote.Students usually just do community services like cleaning the neighborhoods. This means they ha ven’t learned how to link real life problems to politics through voting, according to Christopher Beem, a politics professor at the Pennsylvania State University.He said the country needs to help young people learn how to take part in politics and get them to see that they can make a difference.21. What percentage of young voters wouldn’t go to vote?A. 9 percent.B. 12 percent.C. 20 percent.D. 55 percent.22.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. US Young Not VotingB. US Young and Their PresidentC. Young People’s PowerD. Voting for the New US PresidentBA private sixth grade is set to start its lessons at 1.30 pm every day because the school’s teacher thinks his students will study better after a morning lie-in (懒觉).Instead of rising early for a 9 am start, students at the £15,000-a-year Hampton Court House, in East Molesey, Surrey, will get to enjoy a lie-in and work from 1.30 pm until 7.pm. Head teacher Guy Holloway says the move for all sixth grade students, set to begin from September, has been made according to research by scientists. He predicts (预测) that not only will his students a ged 16 and upwards get great night’s sleep, but their productivity (效率) will also be improved.The co-educational school will have the latest start time in the UK, and will be the only one to begin lessons in the afternoon.Experts say young people are programmed to get up later, and that rather than laziness it is simply a shift (转变) in their body clocks.“There are 168 hours i n a week and how productive they are depends on how they choose to use those hours,” said Mr Holloway, “At Hampton Court House we don’t think we have the answer for everybody; it’s about what works in our school. We want to get them into a condition where they can get great sleep and study well.” He said students would also benefit from reduced journey times as they travel to and from school after rush hour (上下班高峰时间).Year 10 student Gabriel Purcell-Davis will be one of the first of 30 A-level students to start at the later time. “I want to wake up in my bed, not in my maths lesson,“said the 15-year-old. Lessons for all other students at the school will still begin at 9 am as usual.23. Why did the school decide to start the class at 1.30 pm?A. It may be good for students’ study.B. Students wanted a morning lie-in.C. Students were often late for school.D. Teachers wanted to have a good sleep in the morning.24. What can we learn about the new start time?A. It’s suitable for every student.B. It was based on scientific research.C. Students are following the new school time now.D. Only the sixth grade students will use the new school time.25.. Experts think young people’s getting up later .A. is a bad habitB. is a natural thingC. is because of lazinessD. is helpful to their study26. In Mr. Holloway’s eyes, students can improve their productivity by .A. working harderB. not wasting timeC. using time wiselyD. learning new study methods27. What’s Gabriel Purcell-Davis’ attitude towards the new school time?A. Doubtful.B. Supportive.C. Worried.D. Objective.第二节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)After thirty years in the classroom, I have come to realize that teacher’s behavior can make a world of difference for a child.

He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.We cautiously began a conversation and spoke about a wide rang of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked,“My I get you something ?〞“A coffee would be nice.〞Then I bought him a cup of coffee, We talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee, Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked,“How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath?〞“Who?〞“The man you were sitting with. He is chairman of the Boar d of Churchill Downs.〞I could hardly believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world’s richest and most powerful men!My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life. Now I try to treat everyone with respect, no matter who I think they are, and no matter another human being with kindness and sincerity.56. What does the underlined word “disheveled〞 mean?A. Unfriendly.B. Untidy.C. Gentle.D. Kind.57. The author bought coffee for the old man becauseA. he thought the old man was poorB. he wanted to start a conversationC. he intended to show his politenessD. he would like to thank the old man58. How did the author probably feel after he talked with his friend?A. Proud.B. Pitiful.C. Surprised.D. Regretful59. What is the message mainly expressed in the story?A. We should learn to be generous.B. It is honorable to help those in need.C. People in high positions are not like what we expect.D. We should avoid judging people by their appearances.BIt is hardly surprising that clothing manufacturers(生产商) follow certainuniform standards for various features(特征) of clothes. What seems strange, however, is that the standard adopted for women is the opposite of the one for men. Take a look at the way your clothes button. Men’s clothes tend to button from the right, and women’s form the left. Considering most of the word’s population----men and women----are right-handed, the men’s standard would appear to ma ke more sense for women. So why do women’s clothes button from the left?History really seems to matter here. Buttons first ap peared only on the clothes of the rich in the 17th century, when rich women were dressed by servants. For the mostly right-handed servants, having women’s shirts button from the left would be easier. On the other hand, having men’s shirts button form the right made sense, too. Most men dressed themselves, and a sword drawn from the left with the right hand would be less likely to get caught in the shirt.Today women are seldom dressed by servants, but buttoning form the left is still the standard for them. Is it interesting? Actually, a standard, once set, resists change. At a time when all women’s shirts buttoned form the left, it w ould have been risky for any single manufacturer to offer women’s shirts that buttoned from the right. After all, women had grown so used to shirts which buttoned from the left and would have to develop new habits and skills to switch. Besides, some women might have found it socially awkward to appear in public wearing shirts that buttoned from the right, since anyone who noticed that would believe they were wearing men’s shirts.64.What is surprising about the standard of the clothing industry?A. It has been followed by the industry for over 400 years.B. It is different for men’s clothing and women’s.C. It woks better with men than with women.D. It fails to consider right-handed people.65. What do we know about the rich men in the 17th century?A. They tended to wear clothes without buttons.B. They were interested in the historical matters.C. They were mostly dressed by servants.D. They drew their swords from the left.66. Women’s clothes still button from the left today because .A. adopting m en’s style is improper for womenB. manufacturers should follow standardsC. modern women dress themselvesD. customs are hard to change67. The passage is mainly developed by .A. analyzing causesB. making comparisonsC. examining differencesD. following the time orderCHumans are naturally drawn to other life forms and the worlds outside of our own. We take delight in the existence of creatures and even whole societies beyond our everyday lives.This sense of wonder is universal. Look at the efforts that scientists have madeto find out whether life of some kind exists on Mars, and the popularity of fantasy(梦想) literature or movies like The Lord of the Rings. This sense of wonder draws usto each other, to the world around us, and to the world of make-believe. But havewe gone so far in creating worlds of fantasy that we are missing the pleasure ofother worlds that already exist all around us?Human beings, as biologists have suggested, possess an inborn desire to connectwith and understand other life forms. However, people, especially in big cities,often lead rather isolated lives. In a study of British schoolchildren, it was foundthat children by age eight were much more familiar with characters from televisionshows and video games than with common wildlife. Without modem technology, a smallpond could be an amazing world f illed with strange and beautiful plants, insects,birds, and animals. When we lack meaningful interaction(交互) with the world aroundus, and sometimes even with our families and friends, we seek to understand and communicate with things that exist only in our imaginations or on a computer screen。

Now before we go to the st ation here’s a note I was asked to hand you. You may read it here at the window. It’s from Jimmy Wells.?" The man from the West opened the little piece of paper handed him. His hand was steady when he began to read, but it trembled(发抖; 颤动) a little by the time he finished. The note was rather short. Bob: I was at the right place on time.

Grandma and Uncle Henry lived on a farm some 15 miles out of town. They had no electricity or running water and 36 what I considered the “good things〞 in life. They 37 made no plans for Christmas. When Christmas Eve arrived, Mom told me in her best “I-mean-it〞 voice to 38 all the decorations from our tree. She packed those up, along with all the trimmings(装饰物) for a complete turkey 39.Christmas morning 40 perfectly, with the sun shining brightly across a fresh blanket of snow. 41 I sulked(生气) silently in the backseat of the car as we madeour 42 to grandma’s. This was going to be the 43 Christmas ever! Grandma was 44 to see us as we walked up to her door. “What on earth are you doing here?〞 She stammered. “We weren’t expecting 45. It’s Christmas, and I don’t even have a turkey to 46 for you.〞“I knew that,〞 Mom said as we set boxes of goodies on the kitchen table. “That’s 47 we brought one with us.〞“We must have a 48,〞 Mom insisted. “ 49, what will we do with all these decorations?〞 Uncle Henry quickly caught Mom’s spirit. He called me to join him, and we 50 a perfect Christmas tree in the woods. Soon the 51 smelled fresh and piney as we decorated the tree, and the day 52 a festive air.

I was actually beginning to enjoy this unusual Christmas day!Dessert was forgotten 53 Mom came out with the final surprise—a flaming pudding! “Merry Christmas, Mother,〞Mom said. “Dear me!〞Grandma gasped. “I haven’t seen a flaming pudding since I left England before I was married.〞 Tears of 54 filled her eyes.I could not keep the tears rolling 55 my eyes, either.

This is one of the questions I am frequently asked. There is no hard and fast rule, for no two are alike, and it would be wrong to set a time when all should start being taught the intricacies (难懂之处) of reading letters to form words.If a three-year-old wants to read (or even a two-year-old for that matter), the child has the right to be given every encouragement. The fact that he or she might later be “bored〞 when joining a class of non-readers at child school is the teacher’s affair. It is up to the teacher to see that such a child is given more advanced reading material.Similarly, the child who still cannot read by the time he goes to junior school at the age of seven should be given every help by teachers and parents alike. They should make certain that he is not dyslexic(诵读困难的). If he is, a specialist’s help should immediately be sought.Although parents should be careful not to force youngsters aged two to five to learn to read (if badly done it could put them off reading for life), there is no harm in preparing them for simple recognition of letters by labeling (标明) various items in their room. For instance, tie a nice piece of cardboard to their bed with BED written in neat, big letters.Should the young child ask his parents to teach him to read, and if the parents are capable of doing so, such an attraction should not be ignored. But the task should never be made to look like a hard job and the child should never be forced to continue, should his interest start to flag(消退).31. This passage is mainly about _______.A. what qualities people teaching children reading should haveB. different age groupings of children to be taught readingC. when and how children should be taught readingD. various problems of children who start learning to read32. In the writer’s opinion, children st art learning to read _______.A. early and fastB. at different rulesC. by a certain ruleD. from word games33. A three-year-old child who wants to read should _______.A. be encouragedB. go to an infant schoolC. start from fun storiesD. join a class of non-readers34. The purpose of labeling items in the room is to _______.A. make it more colorfulB. teach children to write neatlyC. help children recognize simple lettersD. force children to develop the habit of reading35. The writer suggests that _______.A. children should ask their parents to teach them to readB. children should not feel bored if given advanced reading materialC. children starting to read should ask specialists for helpD. children should be taught with patience, care and a sense of humorBWe all know that the normal human daily cycle of activity is of some 7-8 hours’ sleep alternating (交替) with some 16-17 hours’ wakefulness and th at, broadly speaking, the sleep normally coincides with (与……相符) the hours of darkness. Our present concern is with how easily and to what this cycle can be modified.The question is not only an academic one. The case, for example, with which people can change from working in the day to working at night, is a question of growing importance in industry where automation calls insistently for round-the-clock working of machines. It normally takes from five days to one week for a person to adapt to a reversed(颠倒的) routine of sleep and wakefulness, sleeping during the day and working at night. Unfortunately, it is often the case in industry that shifts are changed every week; a person may work from 12 midnight to 8 am one week, 8 am to 4 pm the next, and 4 pm to 12 midnight the third and so on. This means that no sooner has he got used to one routine than he has to change to another, so that much of his time is spent neither working nor sleeping very efficiently.One answer would seem to be a longer period on each shift, a month, or even three months. Recent research by Bonjer of the Netherlands, however, has shown that people on such systems will revert to their normal habits of sleep and wakefulness during the weekend and that this is quite enough to destroy any adaptation to night work built up during the week.The only real solution appears to be to hand over the night shift to a crop of permanent(永久的) night workers whose nocturnal〔夜间的〕 wakefulness may last through all weekends and holidays. An interesting study of the domestic life and health of night-shift workers was carried out by Brown. She found a high incidence of disturbed sleep, digestive〔消化的〕disorder and domestic disruption (扰乱) among those on alternating day and night shifts. But no abnormal occurrence of these symptoms〔病症〕 among those on permanent night work.36. The article is mainly about _______.A. how the normal human daily cycle worksB. how to deal with the problem of shift workC. a research on the normal human daily cycleD. how to work better37. According to the passage, the main problem about night work is that _______.A. your life is disturbed by changing from day to night routines and backB. people hate the inconvenience, the main problem on night shiftsC. not all industries work at the same hoursD. it is difficult to find a crop of good night workers38. It can be inferred that the best solution to the problem seems to be _______.A. not to change shifts from one week to the nextB. to make periods on each shift longerC. to employ people who will always work at nightD. to find ways of selecting people who adapt quickly39. If something works round the clock, it works _______.A. all day longB. all the timeC. all night longD. at a regular pace40. Which of the statements is TRUE?A. Automation helps solve the problem of working at night.B. A person can work more efficiently by frequent changes between day shifts andnight shifts.C. The adaptation to night work can be destroyed if the person reverts to theirnormal habits for even one day or two.D. Those permanent night workers are more likely to have such a symptom asdigestive disorder.[参考答案]1-5AABCB 6-10DDACB 11-15 BACBA 16-20 ABDCA21-25 CBDDA 26-30 BCABD 31-35 B AADD 36-40BACBC。

But designer Mikhail Belvacv doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. That’s why he created lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella.The designer says he come up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street ad saw the street lamps lighting up peopletrying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy(伞蓬)built into a street lamp.” he said.The lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand. Sensors(传感器)then ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians shelter whenever it starts raining.In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360°motion sensor on the biberglass street lamp which detects whether anyone’s using the lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed.According to the designer, the lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lighting strike. Each lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.While there are no plans to take lampbrella into production, Belyacv says he recently introduced his creation one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be installed on my street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.26. For what purpose did Belyacv create the lampbrella?A. To predict a heavy rainB. To check the weather forecastC. To protect people from the rainD. To remind people to take an umbrella27. What do we know from Belyacv’s worlds in Paragraph2?A. His creation was inspired by an experienceB. it rains a lot in the city of Saint PetersburgC. Street lamps are protected by canopiesD. He enjoyed taking walks in the rain28. Which of the following show how the lampbrella works?A. motor →canopy→ sensorsB. Sensors→motor→ canopyC. motor→sensors→ canopyD. canopy→motor→ sensors29. What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about the lampbrella?A. Its moving speedB. Its appearanceC. Its installationD. Its safety30. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The designer will open a company to promote his productB. The lampbrella could be put into immediate productionC. The designer is confident that his creation is practicalD. The lampbrella would be put on show in Moscow五、单词拼写(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)根据下列各句句意和空白之后的汉语提示词,在横线上写出对应单词的正确、完整形式,每空只写一词。

About five minutes later, the bus they wanted came along. They were just going to get on when suddenly there was a loud noise behind them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way . Someone shouted at them. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreigners seem all at sea and looked embarrassed. No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus that the first person who arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus .Learning the language of a country isn't enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the mannersand customs of your host country. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man shaking his head at another to show that he doesn't agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head means agreement. Nodding your head when you are given a drink in Bulgaria will most probably leave you thirsty .In that country, you shake your head to mean 'yes'—a nod means 'no' . At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that your glass is repeated refilled as soon as you drink up . If you think that you have had enough , you should take the cup or glasses in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.In Europe it quite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this in Thailand, however, could bring about trouble . Also, you should try to avoid touching the head of an adult ——it's just not done in Thailand .21. The British people tried to push the three gentlemen out of the way, because the gentlemen _________ .A. were foreignersB. didn't have ticketsC. made a loud noiseD. didn't line up for the bus22. According to the article, if you want to have a pleasant journey ina foreign country, you should _________.A. learn the language of the countryB. understand the manners and customs of the countryC. have enough time and moneyD. make friends with the people there23. In India it is considered impolite ___________.A. to use the right hand for passing food at table.B. to pass food with the left hand.C. to eat food with your hands.D. to help yourself at table.24. To cross one's legs at an important meeting in Europe is _______.A. a common habitB. an important mannerC. a serious troubleD. a bad manner25. The best title for this article is ________.A. People's Everyday LifeB. Mind Your MannersC. Shaking and Nodding HeadD. Taking a Bus in EnglandBChina has recently been faced with serious issues of product safety. In Panama, it is said that medicine made with a poisonous chemical sickened some people. A Chinese company had identified it as diethylamide glycol ([化]乙二醇), a low –cost substitute commonly used in automobile antifreeze(防冻剂).Some countries have banned Chinese-made toothpaste(牙膏) containing diethylamide glycol. China has now told companies to discontinue its use, even though it says the toothpaste is safe. Another industrial chemical, melamine, was found in wheat flour used to make pet food in North America. Thousands of dogs and cats became sick.The United States has restricted some imports of Chinese seafood because they contained banned substance. And questions have been raised about other products, including children’s toys covered with lead paint.Chinese officials promised to provide the European Union, the biggest trading partner, with detailed reports on enforcement efforts against unsafe goods.Meglena Kuneva, commissioner (理事) for consumer protection of第3页共24页◎第4页共24页the European Union said China should have kept its promise.China recently closed three companies linked to the Panama and the pet food scare. And it dismissed the former head of its food and drug administration. He was found guilty of corruption (腐败) for approving unsafe drugs. This week, a conference of the State Council approved a proposed special measure on the supervision of food safety. The Xinhua News Agency said it calls for stronger controls over producers, greater responsibilities for government and more serious punishment for illegal activities.But Chinese officials have accused some foreign media of overstating (夸大)problems with goods made in China. They say food imports from the United States also fail inspection sometimes. Next Week, American and Chinese food safety officials are planning to hold 5 days of meetings in Beijing to discuss cooperation.26.

Anyone who's a doctor is right out of luck, I thought. Anyone who's studying medicine should have his head examined.You may think I want to change my job. Well, at the moment I do. As one of my friends says-even doctors have a few friends-it's all experience. Experience! I don't need such experience. I need a warm, comfortable, undisturbed bed all my own. I need it badly. I need all telephones to be thrown down the nearest well, that's what I need. All these thoughts fly round my head as I drive my Mini(微型汽车) through the foggy streets of East London at 3:45 a.m. on a December morning. I am a ministering angel in a Mini with a heavy coat and a bag of medicines. As I speed down Lea Bridge in the dark at this horrible morning hour, the heater first blowing hot then cold, my back aching from the car-seat, I do not feel like a ministering angel. I wish I were on the beach in southern France. Call me a bad doctor if you like. Call me what you will. But don't call me at half past three on a December morning for an ear-ache that you have had for two weeks.Of course, being a doctor isn't really all bad. We do have our moments. Once in a while people are ill, once in a while you can help, once in a while you get given a cup of tea and rock-hard cake at two o'clock in the morning-then you worry if you have done everything. But all too often 'everything' is a repetitious rule:look, listen, feel,tap, pills, injection, phone, ambulance, away to the next.And then there is always the cool, warm voice of the girl on the switchboard of the emergency bed service who will get your patient into hospital for you-the pleasant voice that comes to you as you stand in the cold, dark, smelly, dirty telephone box somewhere in a dangerous section of town. Oh, it has its moments, this life does. 31.According to the sentence "Anyone who's studying medicine should have his head examined," we know that ___________.A.a medical student should have a very good memoryB.a doctor must be mentally strong so that he can meet any difficult situationC.the writer thinks that those who want to be doctors are crazy D.to be a doctor is a challenge for people's mental health 32.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.The writer wishes he could have a quiet, undisturbed night in bed at home.B.One of his friends says that being a doctor helps one gain all sorts of experience.C.He hates the telephone as a modern means of communication.
