Long before, there was a large mountainside, where rested an eagle’s nest with four large eagle eggs. One day 1 earthquake rocked the mountain, causing one of the eggs to roll down the mountain to a chicken farm 2 (locate) in the valley below. The chickens were kind enough to care for the eagle’s egg, and an old hen volunteered to nurture (哺育) and raise the large egg.

One day, the egg hatched and a beautiful eagle was born. Sadly, 3 , the eagle was raised to be a chicken. Soon, the eagle believed he was nothing more 4 a chicken. The eagle loved his present family, but his spirit cried out 5 more. While playing on the farm one day, the eagle happened to notice a group of mighty eagles soaring in the skies. “Oh,” the eagle cried, “I wish I could soar like those birds.”

The chickens roared with 6 (laugh), “You cannot soar with those birds. You ar e a chicken and chickens do not soar.”

The eagle continued staring at his real family up above, 7 (dream) that he could be with them. Each time the eagle would let his dreams 8 (know), he was told it couldn’t be done. That is 9 the eagle learned to believe. The eagle, after time, stopped dreaming and continued to live like a chicken. Finally, after a long life as a chicken, the eagle passed away.

You become what you believe you are. So, if you ever dream of becoming an eagle, follow 10 dreams... not the words of a chicken.

【2015届湖北省黄冈中学高三上学期期中考试】

My mother is the only living person who has never communicated via email or text. She has never turned on a computer, registered an email account, used data storage media or searched the Internet. Since 1955, she has settled in Silicon Valley, married to an extremely technical specialist in applied physics and engineering, designing photometric systems for NASA. Only when Dad suffered from cancer could we convince her she needed a cell phone. Mom’s being separated from the information age is voluntary and deliberate.

Mom is still that farm girl, and she takes the most pride in it. She sees her n eighbor and her community “real”. She shows no interest in the digital and virtual

life. My mother saw Depression, World War II and the beginning of the Cold War before reaching voting age. She enjoyed country music on “The Sons of the Pioneers”, a Canadian broadcast. The battery was so precious a resource that radio was limited to the barn because Grandma thought it helped cows produce milk. In the age when Churchill moved millions for the first time with radio broadcasts, she only experienced live m edia monthly, if at all.

In her early twenties, Mom completed nurses’ training and worked in that field before marriage, f amily and church became her life’s concerns. She never really warmed up to television, though I think she appreciated a few of the series we watched, comedies like All in the Family. Computers, the Internet and mobile apps are simply not part of her experience.

Mom disagrees with the opinion that technology simplifies life. I n her life, she sees online records, email and paperless systems as mysteries in which no written reference can assist her.

However, I can partly understand: I like such kind of experience and relationship one has with physical books. I am a child of television who only recently switched to online viewing. I’ve written down my awkward, love-hate relationship with my devices. Mom’s technophobia surely played a role here, but it works for her. She’s happiest as she is.

1. The author’s mother began to use mobile phone when .

A. she found it hard to contact with her husband

A. Having so many close neighbors.

B. Experiencing too much all her life.

C. Living simply and in her own style.

D. Being involved in modern technology.

3. What is the author’s attitude towards his mother’s such kind of experience?

A. Critical.

B. Positive.

C. Neutral.

D. Negative.

4. It is implied in the underlined sentence that .

A. the author should make efforts to learn from his mother

B. the author prefers watching movies online to watching TV

C. M om’s attitude towards technology has an effect on the author

D. Mom should also set down the relationship with physical books

A famous doctor once received a little child who was badly ill. Thanks to his skill and care, his young patient got well and was soon able to get up and run about again.

【2015届云南省玉溪一中高三上学期期中考试】

This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers（young people aged from 13 —19）from all over the world will spend about ten months in U. S. homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.

Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.

Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study, the language began to come to him. The school was completely different from what he had expected — much harder. Students rose respectfully(尊敬地) when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.

Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.

“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”

At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize(批评) American schools,”he says. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”

9. This year teenagers will take part in the exchange programme between

America and other countries.

A. twenty-three hundred

B. thirteen hundred

C. over three thousand

D. less than two thousand

10. The whole exchange programme is mainly to .

A. help teenagers in other countries know the real America

B. send students in America to travel in Germany

C. let students learn something about other countries

D. have teenagers learn new languages

11. What is particular in America schools is that .

A. there is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings

B. there are a lot of outside activities

C. students usually take fourteen subjects in all

D. students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car

12. After experiencing the American school life, Mike thought .

A. a better education should include something good from both American and Germany

B. German schools trained students to be better citizens

C. American schools were not as good as German schools

D. the easy life in the American school was more helpful to students

【2015届辽宁省沈阳二中高三上学期期中考试】

The extraordinary Eastgate Building in Harare, Zimbabwe’s ca pital city, is said to be the only one in the world to use the same cooling and heating principles like the termite mound(白蚁堆).

Architect Mick Pearce used precisely the same strategy when designing the Eastgate Building, which has no air-conditioning and almost no heating. The building—the country’s largest commercial and shopping mall—uses less than 10% of the energy of a traditional building of its size. The Eastgate’s owners saved $3.5 million on a $36 million building because an air-conditioning plan t didn’t have to be imported.

The mall is actually two buildings linked by bridges across a shady, glass-roofed atrium(天井) open to the air. Fans suck fresh air in from the atrium, blow it upstairs through hollow spaces under the floors and from there into each office through baseboard vents(通风口). As it rises and warms, it is drawn out via ceiling vents and finally exists through forty-eight brick chimneys.

During summer’s cool nights, big fans blow air through the building seven times an hour to cool the empty floors. By day, smaller fans blow two changes of air an hour through the building to circulate（流通） the air which has been in c ontact with the cool floors. For winter days, there are small heaters in the vents.

This is all possible only because Harare is 1600 feet above sea level, has cloudless skies, little dampness and rapid temperature swings （摆幅）—days as warm as 31℃ commonly drop to 14℃at night. “You couldn’t do this in New York, with its fantastically hot summers and fantastically cold winters,” Pearce said.

The engineering firm of Ove Arup&Partners monitors daily temperatures. It is found that the temperature of the building has generally stayed between 23℃ and 25℃, with the exception of the annual hot period just before the summer rains in October and three days in November, when a doorkeeper accidentally switched off the fans at night. And the air is fresh—far more so than in air-conditioned buildings, where up to 30% of the air is recycled.

13. Why was Eastgate cheaper to be built than a traditional building?

A. It was designed in a smaller size.

B. No air conditioners were fixed in.

C. Its heating system was less advanced.

D. It used rather different building materials.

14. What does “it” refer to in Paragraph 3?

A. Fresh air from outside.

B. Heat in the building.

C. Hollow space.

D. Baseboard vent.

15. Why would a building like Eastgate Not work efficiently in New York?

A. New York has less clear skies as Harare.

B. Its dampness affects the circulation of air.

C. New York covers a larger area than Harare.

D. Its temperature changes seasonally rather than daily.

16. The data in th e last paragraph suggests Eastgate’s temperature control system_____.

A. allows a wide range of temperatures

B. functions well for most of the year

C. can recycle up to 30% of the air

D. works better in hot seasons
