2021年高三上学期英语周练试卷12.9 含答案

丰城中学xx学年上学期高三周练试卷英语(1--45班)刘艳红高三英语备课组(2015-12-09)考试时间16:10-----17:20 (重点班不做D篇)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共1 5小题:每小题2分,满分30分)ACoffee is one of the most popular (流行的) drinks throughout the world today. In fact, according to some estimates, over 30% of all adults in the world drink coffee at least once a day on the average.Coffee contains a kind of drug called caffeine (咖啡因). Caffeine is a chemical that stimulates (刺激) the nerves of the body. Drinking coffee tends to make people a little bit more awake-at least for a short time―because of this stimulating effect on the nervous system (系统). A cup of coffee has, on the average, about 3% caffeine in it.One story of the discovery of the coffee plant relates to this effect of caffeine. According to the story, coffee was discovered in East Africa. The story says that coffee was first found by a goat farmer named Kaldi. This was about the year 850. Kaldi was leading his animals through the mountains and the goats were stopping repeatedly to eat the plants near the path. Suddenly, some of the goats started jumping up and down in a very strange way.Kaldi figured out that the goats were acting this way because of the plants they were eating. Kaldi himself tried eating some of the green beans (豆荚) that the goats had been eating. He, too, felt the stimulating effect of the beans. Kaldi wanted to prove what had happened, so he picked some of the beans and took them back to his home village, where he told his story.The green bean got the name "Kaffa" and later "coffee" because the beans were discovered in a place called Kaffa in Africa. Then for years, people used to eat a few of the green Kaffa beans when they were in the mountains and needed extra energy to do their work. It was later found that the coffee beans could be picked and then dried until they turned brown, and then they could be stored. If the beans were dried and stored, they could be used at any time.1. What is the purpose of drinking coffee?A. To bee more awake.B. To bee more healthy.C. To bee more happy.D. To bee more clever.2. How did the goats react after eating the plants?A. They fell asleep.B. They could not find their way home.C. They started jumping up and down.D. They wanted to eat more.3. Why did the green bean get the name "Kaffa"?A. Because Kaldi loved his home village very much.B. Because Kaldi's goats loved the green bean very much.C. Because the beans were discovered in a place by this name.D. Because the beans could be picked and dried.BMalka and Shaindle are sisters. Although they live an hour's drive from each other and don’t see each other often, they are in touch. Malka has a large family. Shaindle, however, has had difficulty having children.Malka had just given birth to another son . Shaindle , married three years and still childless, was receiving fertility(生育) treatments. Involved with work , doctor’s visits, and medical treats, she was unable to make the trip to visit her sister after she had given birth.Malka knew her sister’s problem and was q uite understanding. Shaindle and her husband Feivel would be at the baptismal (洗礼)ceremony,of course.On the day of the baptism , Shaindle and Feivel arrived early, earlier than Malka and her family. Malka’s mother-in-law, Yehudit, was already at the ha ll. “Hello,” said Shaindle cheerfully, never thinking what was about to happen.Yehudit turned to her angrily and said, “What a selfish sister youare! Never once did you see fit to visit Makla this entire week! No wonder you have no children!”Shaindle went into shock at her words. She turned away, her eyes filled with tears. The accusation had cut Shaindle like a knife. She was psychologically bleeding. Poor Shaindle couldn’t calm down. It took a while before she could regain her calmness. She could n’t look at Yehudit; it was just too painful for her to do so.The minute the words had escaped Yehudit’s mo uth, she knew she had crossed a red line. She had stepped on very raw toes and felt regretted for her words –but it was too late. Her attempts to apologize were ineffective. The celebration had suddently turned sour in just a matter of seconds. After all these years, the memory of that happening lingers on …4. Shaindle didn’t visit her sist er after her sister gave birth because .A. she envied her sisterB. she lived too far from her sister.C. she was too busyD. she didn’t feel quite herself5. We can learn from the last paragraph that .A. Shaindle didn’t forgive Yehudit for many years.B. Yehudit didn’t realize how her words could affect ShaindleC . Shaindle couldn’t get rid of the bad memory for many years.D. Shaindle burst out anger at Malka’s mother-in-law.6. The purpose of the passage is to tell us .A. words can really hurt usB. sisters should care for each otherC. we should try to forget unpleasant thingD. two sisters’ different experiences7. The undeflined part “stepped on very raw toes” probably means .A. be impolite to somebodyB. hurt somebody deeplyC. meet somebody by accidentD. make fun of somebody.CPeople laugh and people cry.But it is thought that emotions such as anger, or joy, typically make Americans feel unfortable and embarrassed.The shedder of tears (落泪者) is likely to apologize, even when a great tragedywas the cause.The observer of tears is likely to do everything possible to put an end to the emotional tears.But judging from recent studies of crying behavior, both those responses to tears are often inappropriate and may even be counterproductive (适得其反).Humans are the only animals clearly known to shed emotional tears.Since evolution has given rise to few purposeless physiological responses, it is logical to assume that crying has one or more functions that increase survival.Although some observers have suggested that crying is a way to ask for assistance from others(as a crying baby might from its mother), the shedding of tears is hardly necessary to get help.Vocal (出声的) cries would have been quite enough, more likely than tears to gain attention.So, it appears that there must be something special about tears themselves.Indeed, the new studies suggest that emotional tears may play a direct role in easing stress.University of Minnesota researchers who are studying the chemical position of tears have recently separated two important chemicals from emotional tears.Both chemicals are found only in tears that are shed in response to emotion.Tears shed because of exposure to cut onion ,containing no such substance.Other researchers are looking into the usefulness of tears as a means of diagnosing human ills and monitoring drugs.At Tulane University's Teat Analysis Laboratory Dr.Peter Kast and his colleagues report that they can use tears to detect drug abuse, to study the causes of "dry eye" syndrome(综合征)and the effects of eye surgery, and perhaps even to measure exposure to environmental pollutants.8.What does the phrase "both those responses" in Paragraph 1 refer to ? A.Crying out of sorrow and shedding tears for happiness.B.The embarrassment and unpleasant feelings of the observers.C.Linking illness with crying and finding the chemical position of tears.D.The tear shedder' s apology and the observer' s effort to stop the crying.9.It is known from the first paragraph that____.A.shedding tears gives unpleasant feelings to AmericansB.crying may often result in tragedyC.crying usually wins sympathy from other peopleD.one who sheds tears in public will be blamed10.What does the author say about crying?A.It is a pointless physiological response to the environment.B.It must have a role to play in man' s survival.C.It is meant to get attention and assistance.D.It usually produces the desired effect.11.From the passage we can infer that____.A.it is unnatural for people to shed tearsB.we can reduce our stress by shedding tearsC.shedders of tears can' t get help by crying loudlyD.unlike animals, humans can shed tears for survivalDWhenever people think of charity, the first word that jumps into their mind may be money donated to the needy.However, Wugging, or web-use giving, describes the act of giving to charity at no cost to the user.By using Everyclick., which is being added to a number of university puters across the UK, students can raise money every time they searc h, but it won’t cost them a penny.Research shows that students are extremely enthusiastic about supporting charity —88% of full time students have used the Internet to give to charity.This figure is high considering this age group is often the least likely to have their own ine.19% of 22 to 24 year olds have short-term debts of more than 5,000.With rising personal debt levels in this age group, due to university tuition fees or personal loans and a lack of long-term savings, traditional methods of donating to charity are often not appealing or possible.Beth Truman, a 21-year-old recent university graduate, has used Everyclick. to donate to her chosen charity, the RSPCA, for two years and has seen the "Wugging" grow in popularity with students."When you're at university you bee more socially aware, but it's sometimes hard to give to others when you have little money yourself," says Beth."Wugging is great for people in this age group as it allows them to use the technology on a daily basis to give to charity, without costing them a single penny." Wugging is perfect for people who want to be more socially aware and supportive but don' t feel they have the means to do so.Students using the web can raise money for causes they care about without costing themanything in terms of time or money, and charities get a valuable source of funding.Everyclick. works like any other search engine, allowing users to search for information, news and images but users can decide which of the UK's 170,000 charities they would like to support through their clicks.Everyclick. then makes monthly payments to every registered charity.Launched in June xx, Everyclick. is now the eighth largest search engine and one of the busiest charity websites in the UK.12.According to the passage, "Wugging" is actually____.A.a charityrelated action B.a websiteC.a school organization D.a student movement13.In the case of charity, Everyclick.____.A.receives much money from students B.frees students of the financial worriesC.offers valuable information to students D.praises students for their money-raising14.From the passage, we can conclude that____.A.most full time students do charity on the Internet every day B.Everyclick.is the busiest charity website in the UK C.Everyclick. helps students pay for further education D."Wugging" is a win-win idea for both students and charities15.What would be the best title for the passage?A."Wugging", a popular term on the InternetB.Students collect money for charity by " Wugging"C.More British charities benefit from the InternetD.Charity enjoys increasing popularity with the British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。

2021年高三上学期周考2英语试卷 Word版含答案Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences, 36 . That is a risk. But you can’t be successful when there’s a l ack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.Unfortunately, we’ve all been victims of betrayal. Whether we’ve been suffer from, lied to , misled, or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust. Sometimes people simply can’t trust anymore, 37. It’s understandable, but if you’re willing to build trust in a relationship again, we have some steps you can take to get you there.38 having confidence in yourself will help you make better choicesbecause you can see what the best oute would be for your well-being.39 If you’ve been betrayed, you are the victim of your circumstance.But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a “victim mentality”. At some point in all of our lives, we’ll have our trust tested or violated.You didn’t lose “everything”. Once trust is lost, what is left?Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in yourlife. 40 instead, it’s a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.A.Learn to really trust yourself.B.It is putting confidence in someone.C.Stop regarding yourself as the victim.D.Remember that you can expect the best in return.E.They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happenagain.F.This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their futurerelationships.G.Seeing the positive side of things doesn’t mean you’re ignoringwhat happened.二.完形填空(共20小题;每小题15分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

We were there, as mental health professionals, to offer “psychological first aid” and I was struck by the simple healing power of presence. As we walked in the gate to the shelter, we were greeted with a burst of gratitude from the first person we met. I felt appreciated, but also guilty, because I hadn’t really done anything y et.I first realized the power of presence many years ago when a friend’s mother passed away unexpectedly. I had received a call saying she had just passed away. I wanted to rush down there immediately, but didn’t want to intrude(打扰)on this very personal period of sadness. I was torn about what to do. Another friend with me then said, “Just go. Just be there.” I did, and I will never regret it.Since then, I have not hesitated to be in the presence of others. Once I sat at the bedside of a young man suffering from the pain of his AIDS-related dying. He was not awake, and obviously unaware of others’ presence. However, the atmosphere was by no means solemn. His family, playing guitars and singing, allowed him to be present with them as though he were still fully alive.In my life, I am repeatedly struck by the healing power of presence. In it, none of us are trulyalone. It is not only something we give to others but also changes me for the better.25.Why were the hurricane victims grateful to the author?A. He built shelters for them.B. He gave immediate first aid to them.C. He came to stay with them.D. He brought mental health professionals.26.What did the author do when his friend’s mother passed away?A. He hesitated over whether to go.B. He went to his friends’ at once.C.

Relaxing and delightful.D. Very serious and unhappy.28.What has the author learned from his experience?A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.B. Being present can make a big difference.C. The family harmony is the happiest thing in life.D. Being a volunteer can make one’s life more significant.CAmong the international students in Canada who are struggling to find a job there after graduation, some of them eventually make it with relative ease. They’re the ones who’ve already built up much internship(实习)experience while still attending university, as their majors offer a co-operative program.Co-op programs, a feature(特色)of Canadian university programs, allow academic studies to be combined with work experience. During school years, students get to network with employers, gain internship experience in relevant fields, and earn academic credits that count toward their degree or diploma.Co-op programs are available in most comprehensive universities, like the University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University and York University. These programs are not only open to students majoring in business but also to many science and art majors. Statistics show that nearly 30 percent of recent foreign applicants have chosen majors that also subscribe to the co-op program. “It’s easy to understand,”said a senior education counselor. He noted that working opportunities are provided by employers that build bridges with the university and most of them are well-known companies or local government organizations. Moreover, the average salary for interns is as high as C$30,000 to C$40,000 a year.Students can choose to work during vacations or term-time freely. The required duration of the internship for undergraduates ranges from eight to twelve months, or four to six months forgraduate students. “The programs also benefit those students who want to apply for im mi gration,”added the counselor. “That’s because the policies of many pro vinces in Canada require a certain length of work experience of the applic ants.”29.What's the main characteristic of co-op programs?A. They offer a variety of jobs in all fields.B. They make academic credits easier to gain.C. Employers work with students on their studies.D. Students get work experience while at university.30.What does the example of foreign applicants indicate?A. Co-op programs are becoming more popular.B. The average salary for interns will increase.C. Co-op programs are open to all majors.D. Companies welcome foreign students.31.Which section of a website does the text probably come from?A. Business.B. Education.C. Lifestyle.D. Culture.DIt’s cold and dark outside, and your bed is so warm and comfortable. Going for a run seems like such a bad idea. But before you hide your running shoes, it might be worth giving that crazy idea a go.According to The Huffington Post, an outdoor run in winter, as opposed to one on a treadmill (跑步机), burns more calories because the body is working hard to regulate(调节)its core temperature. Furthermore, research shows that race times are faster in cold weather than in warmer temperatures --- and quicker runs burn more calories. Similarly, cold weather also makes the heart work harder to distribute blood through the body, making that vital muscle even stronger.Outdoor exercise also turns up your energy and rids you of the stress and depression that build up every day. The heat and humidity in the summer can drag you down and tire you faster, but cold weather is refreshing. It adjusts you to your surroundings, making you feel alive.Of course, the threat of smog in some built-up areas is a further hurdle to winter exercise. Heart attacks, stroke, lung cancer and asthma are all dangers of running in smog. The combination of air pollution and exercise increases the potential problems. If you do choose to run outside on smoggy days, take a path in a park or residential area to avoid car exhaust(尾气), and go early in the morning, before rush hour. But staying inside on smoggy days and waiting for the next clear day to run is best.32.How does cold weather benefit runners, compared with warm weather?A. They can run more slowly.B. They can take in more calories.C. Their hearts can function harder.D. Their body temperature can get lower.33.How does summer affect runners?A. It builds up their energy quickly.B. It makes runners tired easily.C. It lessens runners’ stress.D. It causes heart attack.34.What are the runners supposed to do on smoggy days?A. Stop driving cars.B. Do more exercise.C. Avoid outdoor exercise.D. Run late in the morning.35.What can be the best title of the text?A. Refresh with a Winter RunB. Take Outdoor Exercise in SummerC. Go to Run in a ParkD. Follow the Tips to Reduce Stress第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)Correct planting methods can help a tree grow healthily. 36 One of them is choosing an improper planting place, which may be harmful to the tree. Some soils aren’t good for planting some trees. 37 It’ll help you determine the kind of fertilizers necessary for the tree.Digging too deep or too narrow a hole is also a mistake we tend to make while planting a tree. If the hole is dug too deep, the roots don’t get enough oxygen supply, resulting in improper growth of the tree. Besides, a narrow hole won’t allow the roots to expand and support the tree firmly.38 Ideally, the planting hole for a tree should be twice as wide and deep as the root ball.To protect the roots of a tree, we need to put a mulch (护根) on them. First of all, it’s really important to select the right type of mulch. 39 In addition, we must use a proper amount of mulching. Over mulching may cause damage to the roots, while inadequate mulching may result in dryness around the roots.40 Walk around the trees to recognize the problems that have appeared, and fix them before they go out of control.A. Different species require different planting places.B. Most newly planted trees die because of too much water.C. However, there are some mistakes we often make while planting trees.D. We should make our choice based on the plant species and the type of soil.E. So have a soil test before deciding on the planting place would be wiser.F. The most important thing is to monitor the growth of the tree on a regular basis.G. This may weaken the tree and its ability to stand up to unfavorable weather conditions.第三部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)On a bright Friday afternoon in spring, Sumeja Tulic had every reason to enjoy walking in the streets of New York, a c ity she’d41 nine months earlier from London to attend a journalism school. “When the weather is good,it’s very hard to find a reason to be 42 or dissatisfied with the c ity,” she said.Yet her time in New York has coincided with endless ugliness.

How a person reacts to criticism often means the difference between success and failure.Take Ole Bull for example.

He soon gave up the course and,disobeying his father,22 all his time and energy to the violin.Unfortunately,though he had great ability,his teachers were 23 unskilled,so that by the time he was ready to start his concert tour he wasn't prepared. In Italy a Milan newspaper critic(批评家)wrote:“He is a(n) 24 musician.If he is a diamond,he is certainly in the rough and unpolished.”There were two ways Ole B ull could have 25 to that criticism.He could have let it make him angry,or he could learn from it.Fortunately he chose the 26 .He went to the newspaper office and asked to see the critic.The 27 editor introduced him.

课标新卷英语必修2周考卷I答案

课标新卷英语必修2周考卷I答案(c)the process of ageingat the age of twelve years, the human body is at its most vigorous. it has yet to reach its full size and strength, and its owner his or her full intelligence; but at this age the possibility of death is least. earlier, we were infants and young children, and consequently more vulnerable (极易伤势的); later, we shall undergo a progressive loss of our vigour and resistance which, though vague at first, will finally become so steep that we can live no longer, however well we look after ourselves, and however well society, and our doctors, look after us.this decline in vigour with the passing of time is called ageing. it isone of the most unpleasant discoveries which we all make that we must declinein this way, that if we escape wars, accidents and disease we shall eventually “die of old age”, and that this happens at a rate which differs little from person to person, so that there are heavy odds in favor of our dying betweenthe ages of sixty-five and eighty. some of us will die sooner, a few will live longer ---- on into a ninth or tenth decade. but the chances are against it, and there is a virtual limit on how long we can hope to remain alive, however lucky and physically strong we are.normal people tend to forget this process unless and until they are reminded of it. we are so familiar with the fact that man ages, that people have for years assumed that the process of losing vigour with time, of becoming more likely to die the older we get, was something self-evident, like the cooling of a hot kettle or the wearing-out of a pair of shoes. they have also assumed that all animals, and probably other organisms such as trees, or even the universe itself, must in the nature of things “wear out”.most animals we commonly observe do in fact age as we do, if given the chance to live long enough; and mechanical systems like a wound (上发条的) watch, or the sun, do in fact an out of energy in accordance with the secondlaw of thermodynamics (热力学). but these are not similar or equivalent towhat happens when man ages. a run-down watch is still a watch and can be rewound. an old watch, by contrast, becomes so worn and unreliable that it eventually is not worth mending. but a watch could never repair itself — it does not consist of living parts, only of metal, which wears away by friction(摩擦). we could, at one time, repair ourselves — well enough, at least, to overcome all but the most instantly fatal illnesses and accidents. between twelve and eighty years we gradually lose this power, an illness which at twelve would knock us over, at eighty can knock us out, and into our grave. if we could stay as vigorous as we are at twelve, it would take about years for half of us to die, and another for the survivors to be reduced by half again.74. what can be learned from this passage is that ______.a. people usually are unhappy when they are reminded of ageingb. children reach their full intelligence at the age of twelve yearsc. people are usually more likely to die at the age of twelve yearsd. our first twelve years represent the peak of human development75. the underlined word “it” in the last sentence of paragraph tworefers to ______.a. remaining alive until 65b. dying before 65 or after 80c. remaining alive after 80d. dying between 65 and 8076. what does “ageing” mean according to the passage?a. it is a fact that people cannot live any longer.b. it refers to a gradual loss of vigor and resistance.c. it is usually a phenomenon of dying at an old age.d. it is a period when people are easily attacked by illness.77. what do the examples of the watch refer to in the last paragraph?a. normally people are quite familiar with the ageing process.b. the law of thermodynamics functions in the ageing process.c. all animals and other organisms undergo the ageing process.d. human's ageing process is different from that of mechanisms.section cdirections: read the passage carefully. then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.proxemics (空间关系学) is the study of what governs how closely one person stands to another. people who feel close will be close, though the actual distances will vary between cultures. for americans we can detect four main categories of distance: intimate (亲密无间的), personal, social and public. intimate ranges from direct contact to about 45 centimeters. this is for the closest relationships such as those between husband and wife. beyond this comes personal distance. this stands at between 45 and 80 centimeters. it isthe most usual distance maintained for conversations between friends and relatives. social distance covers people who work together or are meeting at social gatherings. distances here tend to be kept between 1.30 to 2 meters. beyond this comes public distance, such as that between a lecturer and his audience.all cultures draw lines between what is an appropriate and what is an inappropriate social distance for different types of relationship. they differ, however, in where they draw these lines. look at an international receptionwith representatives from the us and arabic countries talking and you will see the americans pirouetting (快速旋转) backwards around the hall pursued bytheir arab partners. the americans will be trying to keep the distance between themselves and their partners which they have grown used to regarding as “normal”. they probably will not even notice themselves trying to adjust the distance between themselves and their partners, though they may have vague feeling that their arab neighbors are being a bit “pushy”. the arab, on the other hand, coming from a culture where much closer distance is the pattern, may be feeling that the americans are being “stand-offish”. finding themselves happier standing close to and even touching those they are in conversation with they will persistently pursue the americans round the room trying to close the distance between thethe appropriateness of physical contact varies between different cultures too. one study of the number of times people talking in coffee shops over aone-hour period showed the following interesting variations: london, 0;florida, 2; paris, 10; and puerto rico . not only does it vary between societies, however, it also varies between different subcultures within one society. young people in britain, for example, are more likely to touch andhug friends than are the older generation. this may be partly a matter of growing older, but it also reflects the fact that the older generation grew upat a time when touching was less common for all age groups. forty years ago, for example, footballers would never hug and kiss one another on the field after a goal as they do today.(note: answer the questions or complete the statements in no more than ten words)78. what govern the standing space between two persons in proxemics?79. t he underlined word “stand-offish” in paragraph 2 most probably means “______”.80. why may arabs pursue americans in a conversation at an international reception?81. what can be inferred from the last paragraph is that the appropriateness of physical contact also varies with ______.第ii卷(共47分后)i. translationdirections: translate the following sentences into english, using the words given in the brackets.1、人们的个人信息安全保护意识有待提高。

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AEvery evening, 15-year-old Rashida returns home from school, changes out of her uniform, and rushes to a neighboring farm to help her mother harvest ve getables. Her father is disabled, so the modest profit the two of them earn must cover food, clothing and other necessities for all seven children and their parents. Despite having precious little time to study, Rashida is one of the top students at her junior secondary school. But with so much responsibility on her small shoulders, she admits that it is sometimes hard for her to imagine a more promising future.Last year, Rashida was invited to join 155 other girls at Camfed Ghana‟s first Girls‟ Career Camp, a program designed to inspire girls growing up in the country‟s Northern Region to dream big, and to support them to pursue those dreams. “We organized this camp because we wanted to let girls know that even if they are struggling with poverty, their l ives will not be defined by limitations,” says Dolores Dickson, Camfed Ghana‟s Executive Director.Over the course of five days, the camp led the junior and secondary school students through a range of experiences and career opportunities that were entirely new to them. Dr. Agnes Apusiga, a lecturer from the University of Development Studies, ran the workshop on goal-setting and career choices, describing the universities and training colleges in Ghana that could help them achieve their dreams. Participants then visited the University for Development Studies, where they toured the medical school and science labs. Another highlight was a workshop at the computer lab at Tamale Secondary School. Many of the girls had studied information technology from a book but had never before seen a computer.“When the girls arrived at camp, they were not ambitious, because they didn‟t have any idea what the world held for them,” says Eugenia Ayagiba, Project Officer with Camfed Ghana. “Many had scarcely traveled beyond their own villages.”“I think the most important thing that happened at the camp is that we opened a window of hope for a group of girls coming from backgrounds of poverty,” says Eugenia. For Rashida, who has been laughed at in the past by her schoolmates because of her father’s disability, the experience was important. “She told one of the camp mentors(辅导员) that when she is at school, she often feels like a misfit, and she prefers to keep to herself,”says Eugenia. “But at the camp, it was different. She made friends with girls who have similar struggles. She took part in every singleactivity, every single game. On the last day, she said to her mentor, …The camp has challenged me to study hard. Now I see that there is light at the end of the tunnel.‟56.How many are there in Rashida‟s family?A.Seven B.Eight C.Nine D.Ten 57.According to the passage, Camfed Ghana‟s first Girls‟ Career Camp is.A.a program to help poor girls to have ambitionB.a program to help poor girl students to get university educationC.a program to help poor girls to study hardD.a program to help the poor families58.Why did the camp lead the students to visit universities and training colleges?A.To show they are better than their schoolsB.To encourage them to get good education.C.To show them what they are likeD.To get them to touch the advanced equipment there59.What can we infer from the passage?A.Rashida has become friends with her mentorsB.Rashida‟s mentors has encouraged her a lot.C.Rashida was s ad because of her father‟s disability.D.Rashida has had her new dream since the camp60.The best title of the passage is ___________.A.Poor Girls in Ghana B.Girls‟ Career CampC.Camfed Ghana D.Students in Ghana Dream BigBOn October 19, 1959, the first Special English program was broadcast on the V oice of America. It was an experiment. The goal was to communicate by radio in clear and simple English with people whose native language is not English. Experts said the goal was admirable, but the method would not work. They were proved wrong. The Special English programs quickly became some of the most popular on VOA. And they still are.Forty years later, Special English continues to communicate with people who are not fluent in English. But during the years its role has expanded. It also helps people learn American English. And it provides listeners, even those who are native English speakers, with information they cannot find elsewhere.Today, Special English broadcasts around the world seven days a week, five times a day. Each half-hour broadcast begins with ten minutes of the latest news followed by 20 minutes of feature programming. There is a different short feature every weekday about science, development, agriculture and environment, and on the weekend, about news events and American idioms.Three elements make Special English unique. It has a limited vocabulary of 1500 words. Most are simple words that describe objects, actions or emotions. Some are more difficult. They are used for reporting world events and describing discoveries in medicine and science. Special English is written in short, simple sentences that contain only one idea. No idioms are used. And Special English is spoken at a slowerpace, about two-thirds the speed of Standard English. This helps people learning English hear each word clearly. It also helps people who are English speakers understand complex subjects.Through the years, Special English has become a very popular tool for teaching English, even though it was not designed as teaching program. It succeeds in helping people learn English in a non-traditional way. Individuals record the programs and play them over and over to practice their listening skills. In countries around the world, English teachers assign Special English to their students. They praise it for improving their students' ability to understand American English and for the content of the programs. Universities and private companies in many countries produce packages of Special English materials for student use.61.At the beginning, Special English program was .A.well received B.rejected by native peopleC.doubted by some professionals D.intended for teaching English 62.What kind of English is spoken on Special English?A.British English. B.American English.C.Both British and American English. D.Not certain.63.Which of the following are the elements that make Special English unique?a.limited vocabularyb.short simple sentencesb.good communication methodd.slow speede.interesting feature programmingA.a, b, c B.a, c, d C.a, b, d D.b, d, e 64.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Special English has been founded for less than 50 years.B.Native English speakers don‟t have a great affection for Special English.C.Special English usually starts with 20 minutes of the latest news.D.People can learn some idioms from Special English.65.From the last paragraph we can infer that .A.listening to Special English can be a student‟s homeworkB.listening to Special English can improve the content of the programC.some student record the Special English material for saleD.learning English from VOA is a traditional way for English learner.CRiding a London subway, a person from China will notice one major difference; in London, people do not look at each other. In fact, eye contact is avoided at all time. That's not rudeness— people are just too busy to bother looking.Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they're certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet reflection(沉思).Nor are they reading a book. New technology has replaced quiet habits. Today the only acceptable form of book on the London Underground is an e-book.Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters(乘车上下班的人). Since thelaunch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000-yes, that's 40,000-"apps"(programs downloaded for the iPhone)have been designedCommuters love them because they are the perfect time-filler. One "app",called iShoot, is a game that features tanks. Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination. ISteam clouds the iPhone screen when you breathe into the microphone. Y ou can then write in the "steam" on your phone screen.For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be the distraction(消遣)of choice. It's not just teenagers who "plug in" to their music-iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages.And if games, e-books and music aren't enough to keep you occupied. Then perhaps you would prefer a film? The development of palm(掌上)DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV show or film on the way to work. With all this distraction, it's amazing that people still remember to get off the train. 66.People in London do not make eye contact on the subway because they are busy_____________ .A.going to work B.reading booksC.thinking private thoughtsD.playing games, reading e-books, listening to music or watching films67.In Paragraph 4, the underlined word “them” refers to “___________ ”.A.habits B.“apps”C.iPhones D.films 68.Those who like war games can download _________to their iPhones.A.iShoot B.Tube Exits C.iSteam D.iPod69.The underlined word "occupied" in the last paragraph probably means______ .A.delighted B.busy C.amused D.controlled 70.The article tells us that .A.London commuters are unfriendly to strangersB.Apple has earned a lot of money from selling 40,000 appsC.technology is changing the way London commuters spend their traveling time D.with all the new time-fillers, London commuters often forget to get off the train PART FOUR WRITINGSECTION A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Scientists, doctors and mental health professionals have been studying the connection between color and mood for years. Many now believe that colors can not only cause emotional reactions, but can also correct mood. Colors behave in three basic ways : active, passive and neutral(中和色的).Active colors are warm colors, including yellow, orange and red. These colors bring confidence. Warm colors can also bring cheerful attitudes. Y ellows and golden colors work well in offices, kitchens and study areas. Reds heat up a room. Passive colors or cool colors make people calm, quiet and satisfied. Bedrooms, private areas and bathrooms are great places for blues andgreens. Beige, gray and white are thought of as neutral colors. They help to put the focus on other colors or serve to tone down(使柔和) colors that might otherwise be overpowering on their own. Y ou can easily change the look or feel of a room by making good use of different colors. Mixing and matching colors is an excellent way to balance color and emotion, and provide a welcoming feel for guests.To create a feeling of warmth and comfort in a room, use bright, warm colors like yellow, orange and red. These colors are good choices for rooms that appear cool due to limited sunlight. Y ellow adds cheerfulness to dull rooms. Y ou can add yellows to rooms which are not closely related to happy thoughts, such as kitchens and laundry room. In rooms where there‟s plenty of sunshine, cool colors can provide a calming environment. Sage greens and sky blues are prefect for bedrooms, playrooms and activity areas. Neutral colors, such pale gray, white and beige, send a peaceful message to your brain. It‟s not a coincidence that most doctor‟s offices, coffee shops and mental health centers are decorated in neutrals.To make your wall color choices better, pick out furniture that will provide a visual contrast. Cool colors make a room seem larger than it is and warm colors make rooms feel smallerDirections: Read the following passage. Answer the question according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.According to a new study, preschool boys perform better on tests that measure learning and other important skills when they are in classes that have more girls than boys. This doesn‟t seem to apply to girls, though. For preschool girls, the presence or absence of boys does not affect learning.“The study raises questions about having all-boy or all-girl classes for preschool”, says psychologist Arlen Moller, who led the stu dy. She added, “Previous researches have shown that high-school girls may study better in all-girl schools. In middleschool, however, the effects of same-sex schooling are unclear, and even less is known for very young kids.” To find out, researchers stud ied 70 preschool classes with a total of 806 children who were between 3.5 and 6 years old. For each class, teachers recorded the student‟s progress over a 6.5-month school year.Their data included scores of motor skills, social skills and thinking skills. Researchers found that boys developed each of these skills more quickly when there were more girls in the class than boys.In majority-girl classrooms, boys developed at the same rate as girls. But in classes where boys were the majority, boys developed more slowly than girls. Girls tended to advance in classrooms which had any combination of boys and girls.The study is one of the first to look at how the proportion of boys and girls in a class affects learning. Because it‟s a new finding, researchers don‟t know why this difference exists.“This is an exciting topic, but it‟s too early to draw any conclusion because this area is so under-explored,” says psychologist Lean Malofeeva of the High/Scope Educational Research Foundation in Ypsilanti, Michigan.81.What is the finding of the researchers led by Arlen Moller?(no more than 15 words)(2 marks)82.According to the research , what effect does a majority-boy class have on boy‟s study?(no more than 8 words)(3 marks)83.How does Lean Malofeeva find the study of the researchers led by Arlen Moller?(no more than 6 words)(2 marks)84.List three abilities the researchers focused on. (no more than 7 words)(3 marks)SECTION CDirections: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese 假如你叫李明,你的同学汤姆一年前随父母来中国,现在要回国了,请你代表全班同学起草一篇欢送辞,内容包括:1.在中国逗留期间,你们的经历;2.一年以来汤姆对你们英语学习的影响;3.你们的希望。

After he was put on disability for a bad back, he bought a small farm in the country, just enough to grow food for the family. He planted vegetables, fruit trees and even kept bees for honey.And every week he cleaned Old Man McColgin's chicken house in exchange for manure(肥料). The Smell really burned the inside of your nose. When we complained about the terrible smell, Dad said the stronger the manure, the healthier the crops, and he was right. For example, just one of his cantaloupes filled the entire house with its sweet smell, and the taste was even sweeter.As the vegetables started coming in, Dad threw himself into cooking. One day, armed with a basket of vegetables, he announced he was going to make stew(炖菜).Dad pulled out a pressure cooker and filled it up with cabbages, eggplants, potatoes, corns, onions and carrots. For about half an hour, the pressure built and the vegetables cooked. Finally, Dad turned off the stove, the pot began to cool and the pressure relief valve sprayed out a cloud of steam. If we thought Dad's pile of chicken manure was bad, this was 10 times worse. When Dad took off the lid, the smell nearly knocked us out.Dad carried the pot out and we opened doors and windows to air out the house. Just how bad was it? The neighbors came out of their houses to see if we had a gas leak!Determined, Dad filled our plates with steaming stew and passed them around .It didn’t look that bad, and after the first wave had shut down my ability to smell, it didn’t offend the nose so much, either I took a taste. It would never win a prize in a cooking competition, but it was surprisingly edible, and we drank up every last drop of soup.24. Why did Dad clean Old Man McColgin’s chicken house regularly?A. To earn some money for the family.B. To get rid of the terrible smell.C. To collect manure for his crops.D. To set a good example to us.25. What can we infer about Dad’s stew?A. It tastes quite delicious.B. It contains honey and vegetables.C. It looks very wonderful.D. It is popular among the neighbors.26. What does the underlined word “offend” in the last paragraph mean?A. To attractB. To shutC. To airD. To upset27. What can we learn about Dad from the text?A. He is an experienced cook.B. He has a positive attitude to life.C. He is a troublesome father.D. He suffers a lot from his disabilityCChildren’s lives have changed greatly over the last 50 years. But do the y have a happier childhood than you or I did?It’s difficult to look back on one’s own childhood without some element of nostalgia(怀旧的). I have four brothers and sisters, and my memories are all about being with them, playing board games on the living room floor, or spending days in the street with the other neighborhood children, racing up and down on our bikes, or exploring the nearby woods. My parents scarcely appear in these memories, except as providers either of meals or of severe blame after some particularly risky adventure.These days, in the UK at least, the nature of childhood has changed dramatically. Firstly, families are smaller. It is common for both parents to work outside the home and there is the feeling that there just isn’t time to bring up a large family, or that no one could possibly afford to have more than one child. As a result, today’s boys and girls spend much of their time alone. Another major change is that youngsters today tend to spend a huge amount of their free time at home, inside. This is due to the fact that parents worry far more than they used to about real or imagined dangers, so they wouldn’t dream o f letting their children play outside by themselves.Finally, the kind of toys children have and the way they play is totally different. Computer and video games have replaced the board games and more interesting activities of my childhood. The irony(啼笑皆非的事情) is that so many ways of playing games are called “interactive”. The fact that you can play electronic games on your own further increases the sense of loneliness felt by many young people today.Do these changes mean that children today have a less relaxing childhood than I had? I personally believe that they do, but perhaps every generation feels exactly the same.28. What is the purpose of the direct question given in the first paragraph?A.

The writer’s attitude towards the childhood changing is ________ .A. approvingB. unconcernedC. objectiveD. optimisticDA new pollen (花粉) study showed that drought was responsible for the extinction of civilizations more than 3,000 years ago during the Bronze Age.The reason behind why the civilizations in and around modern-day Israel suddenly broke down more than 3,000 years ago has remained a mystery up until now.A new pollen study by Tel Aviv University researchers finally solved this Bronze Age mystery.Prof. Israel Finkelstein showed that owing to serious climate changes, the entire world of the Bronze Age crumbled in a short period of time. The discovery was made on the basis of a high-resolution analysis of pollen grains taken from sediments (沉淀物) beneath the Sea of Galilee and the western shore of the Dead Sea.Prof. Finkelstein received support from the European Research Council to conduct research aimed at reconstructing ancient Israel. Researchers of the part of the project that dealt with climate change extracted (提取) about 60 feet of samples of gray muddy sediment from the center of the Sea of Galilee in northern Israel. They had to drill through 1,000 feet of water and into 65 feet of the lake bed and were able to recover evidence dating over the past 9,000 years.“Pollen is the most enduring organic material in nature,” explained Dr. Dafna Langgut, a pollen researcher who carried out the actual work of sampling. “These grains tell us about the plants that grew near the lake in the past and therefore prove the climatic conditions in the region.”Researchers noted a sharp decrease in Mediterranean trees like oaks and pines in the Late Bronze Age. According to study experts, this could be because of repeated periods of drought. The droughts may have resulted in long famines(饥荒), forcing people to migrate from north to south.32.
