Swimming and English LearningCan you swim? Do you like swimming? Yes? Well, how can you learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I'm afraid you'll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others swimming. It's the same with the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. The children in English - speaking countries first listen to others. Then they try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English programs on radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn't matter. Just be relaxed, and try to catch every word.Somebody may be a good listener. But he dare not speak. He's afraid of making mistakes. You know we sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don't be afraid. We must be brave. If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone so long as he knows English. Whether you know him or not is not important. When there's nobody to talk with, you can talk to yourself in English. It's interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English. Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you'll make.Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First we must choose the books we're interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. This is the most important.Keep writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to English magazines. Don't be afraid of failure. Failure is the mother of success.Easier said than done. Well, let's do more practice from now on. I'm sure you'll learn English well in this way.（1）We should learn English by ________.A.listening and speakingB.reading and writingC.A and BD.swimming（2）What will you do with mistakes when you speak?A.Don't make mistakes.B.Study hard.C.Try not to speak English.D.Don't be afraid.（3）We can listen to English ________, according to the passage.A.by trainB.on the radioC.every minuteD.now and then【答案】（1）C（2）D（3）B【解析】你会游泳吗?你喜欢游泳吗?是吗?那么，你是怎么学会游泳的呢?我认为最好的方法是下水去学习。

Whether she wantsto or not, she's ready to start each day between1:30 and 3:00 a.m."I'm wide awake and ready to clean thehouse," the 49-year-old woman said. "I don'tneed a cup of coffee to get going, not at all. Butbetween 4:00 and 5:00 p.m. you might have to nudge (轻推) me with an elbow."Middlebrook suffers from what is knownas Familial Advanced Sleep Phase Syndrome, or FASPS. Her body's clock is out of sync (同步) with the sleep-wake rhythm, which most ofthe world lives by. She goes to bed each nightbetween 5:30 and 7:30 p.m. and wakes in theearly hours of the morning."The result is that you can feel very lonely," Middlebrook said. “Who wants to have a party at three in the morning? Nobody I know, and I don’t want to go to the local bar to see who’s still there.〞About three-tenths of the world’s population lives like this, including two of Middlebrook’s sisters, her daughter, and her mother. “Their whole clock is shifted,〞said Fu Yinghui, a researcher at the University of California, San Francisco.In the science journal Nature, Fu and his colleagues reported a newly-discovered mutation 〔变异〕of a single gene that they say causes FASPS.There are more than a dozen genes thatcontrol the human body clock, according to Fu.That clock controls a variety of physical and behavioral cycles. These include fluctuations (波动) in heart rate, blood pressure, and the immune system. Collectively, these cycles are known as circadian rhythms (生理节奏) and are generally tied to the 24-hourday-night cycle.1. What is Susan Middlebrook's problem?A. She can't get enough sleep.B. She feels very lonely.C. She has quite a different sleep-wake rhythm.D. There is something wrong with her familygene.2.

第一周周练习阅读+完形061.阅读理解I owe my father a huge thank you! Sure, I need to thank him for all those years of paying my bills, fixing my bikes, and providing a shoulder to cry on. But this year I realized that his contributions to my childhood were much more than that.I grew up as Daddy's Little Girl. If I had a problem that needed fixing or a question that needed answering, he was the one I ran to. He helped me get through everything from math homework as a high school student to career choices as a young adult. He always expected that I do my best in whatever I did, and he believed I could succeed in anything I put my mind to. As a result, I learned to hold myself to those same standards. He always showed me unconditional love, which helped me learn to love myself. It was something I'd taken for granted until I realized from talking with my friends that they had no similar view of their self worth. Having fathers that didn't believe in them left them to grow up not believing in themselves.As I was growing up, my father also modeled how a woman should be lavished. He treated my mom with love and respect. As a result, I grew to expect nothing less than that from the men I dated and from the man I would eventually marry. Dad was a living picture of godliness (虔诚) , honesty and responsibility. It was only recently that I realized what a deep effect fathers have on their daughters' lives. That is why I want to thank my dad for the godly example of love that he has been to me throughout my life.（1）From the second paragraph，the author thinks it is the most valuable that .A.her father was very strict with her.B.her father helped her a lot in every way.C.nothing was difficult if her father was on her side.D.Father's trust deeply influenced her self-confidence.（2）What does the underlined word "lavished" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Loved.B.Respected.C.Treated.D.Spoiled.（3）Who would the author turn to when in trouble?A.Her friends.B.Her mother.C.Her husband.D.Her father.（4）The feeling the author wants to express to her father in this text is .A.gratefulB.sadC.proudD.pitiful【答案】（1）D（2）C（3）D（4）A【解析】当然，我需要感谢他这么多年来为我支付账单，为我修理自行车，为我提供一个可以依靠的肩膀。

ATaj Mahal, Agra, IndiaAs many as 28 different varieties of precious stones were used to decorate the outside of the Taj Mahal. Construction took around 20 years. The building, which was made from white marble from the quarries(采石场) of Rajasthan, appears pink in the morning, white in the day and golden in the moonlight.Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, Akashi Strait, JapanIt took 10 years to construct the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge. It connects the city of Kobe, on Japan’s mainland, with Iwaya on Awaji Island. Before it opened, the only way to get between the two cities was by ferry. However, the waterway was at the mercy of severe storms and when two ferries overturned in 1955, killing 168 people, public anger convinced the government of the need for a bridge. It's the longest suspension bridge in the world, with a length of 1,991 meters. Panama Canal, PanamaMore than 4. 5 million cubic yards of concrete were used in the construction of this canal’s locks and dams. The Panama Canal is a 47-mile long waterway that connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The earth and rubble dug to make way for it was enough to bury Manhattan to a depth of four meters. A series of locks allows ships to pass through the water. Each lock door weighs 750tons and each lock fills with 52 million gallons of water to accommodate the 15,000 ships that use the canal every year.Grand Canyon Skywalk, ArizonaThe Skywalk’s foundation is strong enough to support 71 million pounds , Located 1,219 meters above the Colorado River, the Grand Canyon's Sky Walk consists of one million pounds of steel and 83,000 pounds of glass. It was the creation of Las Vegas businessman David Jin, who approached the Hualapai Tribe with the idea of a glass walkway over the Grand Canyon in 1996. The Sky walk was assembled on site.1. The Japanese government decided to build the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge ___________A in the year of 1955B following public opinionC to show its national powerD to develop Japan’s economy2.

高三第1周周练英语试题
换兑市暧昧阳光实验学校中学高三英语第1周周练一The octopus’s（章鱼）reputation as a human-killer isn’t simply an exaggeration（夸张）—it is a total myth. The octopus can indeed be a deadly hunter, but only of its natural victims. Some shellfish（壳类动物）and an occasional sick or incautious fish have reason to be frightened of this multi-armed hunter, but a person is much too large to interest even the biggest octopus. Even the largest among octopi is much smaller than most people imagine. Far from being large enough to swallow a ship, as monster octopi in movies have been known to do, the largest octopus, found on the Pacific coast, weighs around 110 pounds and grows to no more than ten feet in width.The hard, parrot-like beak（喙）of an octopus is not used for attacking deep-sea divers, but for cutting open shellfish. Indeed, the octopus possesses such a tiny throat that it cannot swallow large pieces of meat. Instead, it feeds by pouring digestive juices into its victims, and then sucking up the soupy remains. A shellfish that finds itself in the grasp of an octopus has only a short time to live. But human beings are perfectly safe. Still, people rarely care to go close enough to these careful creatures to get a good look at them.1．This passage is mainly about .A．the horrors of the octopusB．the largest octopus in the worldC．the octopi and their behaviourD．the octopus’s deadly hunting method2．It is implied but not stated in the passage that .A．people have unreasonable fears about the octopusB．the octopus is not interested in human beingsC．the octopus is afraid of human beingsD．the octopus is a very cruel sea animal3．What does the underlined part “careful creatures” refer to in the last paragraph?A．Octopi. B．Shellfish. C．Fish. D．The victims.4．The hard beak of the octopus is used for .A．attacking deep-sea diversB．cutting up large pieces of meatC．cutting open its victimsD．defending itself5．From the passage, we can conclude that .A．the octopus is not dangerous to manB．people often fear creatures that are not dangerous to themC．the octopus only hunts its natural victimsD．things described in movies are not to be believed二We all hate speed cameras, don’t we? They’re not there to slow drivers down and lower the road accidents; they just make money for the government. They trick us, cost us cold hard cash, disturb us from driving properly and are unfair.Well, here’s a surprising thing: what if there were facts that the boring cameras actually saved lives? It’s a conclusion difficult to ignore when you look at what’s happening in France, a country with a historically poor record of road safety.There were 16,617 road deaths in 1972 in France for example, but that dropped to 8412 by 1995 following rules such as compulsory seat belt wearing in 1990 and a lowering of the blood alcohol limit to 0.05 in 1995.Last year, the road deaths dropped below 5,000 for the first time, or 4.9 per cent less than 2004. Comparing road deaths to population in 2005, that’s about 817 per million people compared with Australia’s 806.And guess what? Last year the number of speed cameras on French roads reached 1,000 and the government plans to double that within the next three years.Okay, you know the arguments regarding increased traffic safety and cameras-for-income, but it seems in France there’s been a major cultural change brought on by radars and other laws. A three-hour, wine-soaked lunch with a quick rush back to the office is no longer on.Travelling on the highways, it is rare to see anyone breaking the 130km/h speed limit when once few traveled below it. The speed cameras are clearly signed so drivers know when they are coming. There’s even an official web site listing fixed and mobile camera locations and it is updated regularly.Maybe it is because of such transparency by government, rather than the concealment too often used by authorities in many other countries that more French can enjoy la joi de vivre thanks to speed cameras. 6．Generally, it seems to most people that speed cameras are used to .A．make money for the governmentB．slow down the trafficC．lower the road accidentsD．help us drive properly7．From the passage we can learn that .A．France has a very poor record of road safetyB．we’d better ignore the evidence that speed cameras save lives C．France had less road deaths than Australia in 2005D．France does successfully in controlling road accidents 8．Which seems more effective in lowering road deaths in France according to this passage?A．Compulsory seat belt. B．Lowering blood alcohol limit.C．Placing more speed cameras. D．Eating in a shorter time. 9．Now you can seldom see in France .A．people drive at a speed of less than 130km/hB．lunch time lasts long hours with drunk people rushing back to office C．drivers drive according to the traffic lightsD．police conduct traffic in streets10．What does the underlined word “concealment”in the last paragraph mean?A．Secrecy. B．Openness. C．Strictness. D．Harmony.三Sometime early in the next century, human beings will move to Mars. They will live there for about a year, and then will be replaced with another group of pioneers. Building the base on Mars will advance our knowledge of the solar system and aid in our understanding of the earth.We already know that Mars resembles the earth in many aspects: general size, presence of water, length of day, range of temperatures. These resemblances have caused many people to consider a centuries-long project: to terraform Mars. Terraforming means altering a planet’s surface so that Earth’s life forms can survive there. This concept, previously found only in science fiction is now being seriously considered by scientists.Terraforming Mars is theoretically simple: add nitrogen and oxygen to the atmosphere; pump water to the surface; and add the earth’s plants and animals in the order in which they developed on Earth. But it will take at least 300 years.Some people think that such a project is too huge for humans to undertake, but there are very good reasons to make the attempt. The earth now contains some 6 billion people, and no one has any idea of how many humans the earth can support. Our very existence and numbers are threatening many other species. We also have had some experience with terraforming our own planet: altering the landscape, the atmosphere and the climate. Currently terraforming earth has become a wiser activity as we try to control global warming, air and water pollution, and preserve some natural living places.While the possibility of such a project is small, it is not impossible. Even if earth-bound societies come and go in the next 300 years, the project can continue through the work of the Mars settlers without the need for constant backing from the earth.The future existence of all the people in our world may very well depend upon our ability to terraform Mars.11．What would be the best title for this passage?A．Terraforming Mars. B．Saving the Earth.C．Travelling to Mars. D．A Newly-found Place.12．What does the underlined word “altering” mean in the secondparagraph?A．Warming. B．Changing. C．Planting. D．Building.13．According to the passage the main purpose of terraforming Mars is to .A．do some scientific research workB．find out its similarity to earthC．avoid the dying away of many other speciesD．find on Mars living place for the increasing human beings 14．The main reason for causing many people to consider terraforming Mars is that .A．there are some resemblances between Earth and Mars.B．terraforming Mars is theoretically simpleC．we have had some experience with terraforming our own planet: Earth D．the development of science and technology is very rapid 15．What’s the author’s attitude towards the project?A．Optimistic. B．Negative. C．Sceptical. D．Objective.四When six the very best students from different cities in Guandong province all together chose universities in Hong Kong; when the very best student of Beijing picked up HK University while giving up the nearby Peking or Tsinghua University; when the highest enrollment （录取）rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48:1, it’s the high time to ask where the real education heaven for students in China is.Years ago, the answer certainly would be “Peking or Tsinghua University”. But now no one could give the exact reaction without hesitation. The only sure thing is that HK universities have gradually showed an unusual attraction to a great many mainland students.It’s no doubt to call this HK craze（狂热）,which is even out of the expectation of those HK universities themselves.How can HK universities shake the steady foundations of Peking and Tsinghua and attract so many mainland students?First, Hong Kong universities offer large-amount scholarship, especially for the top students who can receive the sum scholarship as much as 400,000 HK dollars. Since higher education has become a kind of heavy burden of many families, it’s easy to understand why the reaction to the generous offering of HK universities is great.Second, most HK universities receive professors and students from all over the world and carry out bilingual（）education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is another attraction for mainland students.Further more, university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as exchange students.Can mainland top universities like Peking or Tsinghua University calm as before when facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will theytake relevant measures to win back the top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation? Time will explain it.The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a good thing for an entire improvement of education in China. After the awakening and action taking of mainland universities, they can perform better together with HK universities.At least, it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees （学费）are among students’ top concern when they are choosing universities. It’s time to move.16．What is the passage mainly talking about?A．Some thought brought by the enrollment of HK universities.B．Higher education in Hong Kong.C．The competition between HK University and Peking University.D．The fall of mainland universities.17．Top students from mainland apply for HK universities because .A．many students now would love to study aboard to get a better experienceB．they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing universities C．HK universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further studyD．Peking university has lost its worldwide reputation 18．What is the author’s attitude toward the competition brought by HK universities?A．The government should take relevant measures to stop this unfair competition.B．Mainland universities had better lower their tuition fees and win back the top students.C．Universities both in mainland and in HK would get an entire improvement during the competition.D．It may probably cause a complete loss both sides in the end. 19．From the passage we can see HK universities .A．didn’t mean to enroll top students from mainlandB．didn’t expect their enrollment of mainland students would be so popularC．have strict enrollment rules and only 1 out of 48 students can get the chance to study thereD．are proud of their teaching staff and facilities20．What does the author mean by saying “It’s time to move” in the last paragraph?A．Mainland universities should take measures as soon as possible to attract students.B．The opportunities come for top students to study abroad.C．Mainland universities should make full preparations to challengemainland universities.D．Top students should be offered further education free of charge.五Allen: I’ve never been a big fan of the bears, especially the vacation show. On my last trip to Disneyland (1999) we passed it by, because we didn’t want to spend the time on something we didn’t really enjoy. If we’d known it would be closed by our next visit. I’m sure we would have watched it one more time. I was just making the point that it wasn’t until Disney announced the closing that this feeling suddenly sprang (弹跳) up for the Country Bear show at Disneyland.But I think the idea of keeping some attractions open forever regardless of the number of visitors it gets is a mistake. We all have great memories of the Bears, but clearly very few kids today (or I should say families today) are making those same memories from this show. That may be a sad fact, but it’s a fact. For whatever reason, the show doesn’t pull in the numbers. Isn’t it right to use the Country Bear space to bring in a more popular attraction so that more kids today can make those magic memories of an attraction they like? Otherwise aren’t we just telling kids today that they “have to”make great memories of the Bears, when it’s obvious that the kids themselves are not enjoying the Bears like we did?Roger: I am very disappointed that they have decided to retire the Country Bear Playhouse. I remember going to the show as a child, and still enjoyed it as a teenager, and now young adult. It is true that there aren’t a lot of shows left at DL and with this one closing even less. Being at DL does require a lot of walking, and it is nice to have a few attractions that are a place to sit and enjoy a good show. I understand that DL has to develop, but there has to be some history to the Disneyland that Walt Disney first designed. There should be some parts of DL that just never go away, and this is one of them. By the time I have children it looks like there won’t be any attractions that I can say I went to as a child at the rate they are going.Now the Bears are leaving. What I want to say is: stop trying to compete with everyone! DL is the best, because of attractions like the Country Bears. If DL insists on destroying all of its magic to make way for the latest, well, then it might as well be just another theme park. 21．What news might get people talking about the problem of the Country Bears?A．The Country Bear Playhouse will be closed.B．There will be a new attraction for our guests at Disneyland.C．The number of visitors to the Country Bear Playhouse is falling.D．The Bears will retire because of old age and can’t give shows any more.22．Allen spoke mainly to get his point across that ________.A．the Bears will be missedB．we should tell kids today that they “have to ” make great memories of the BearsC．the longtime attraction ought to make way for a future attraction D．people never care about what they have until all is lost 23．Which is the best choice to complete Roger’s idea: “The Country Bears have been a part of Disneyland for nearly 30 years,__________.”A．and I feel it is time to give our bears a good restB．but anyway, the attraction has lost interestC．but I know that Disneyland will always be changing, and I accept thatD．and I am sad that the Bears will be leaving24．Which of the following is not in the same group as the other three?A．an attraction B．the latest magic C．the Bears D．a theme park25．Where can this passage be found?A．In a Web discussion zone.B．In a suggestion book.C．In a report on the popularity of the Country Bears.D．In high school students’ compositions.中学高三英语第1周周练答案一．CAACA 二.

2021年高三下学期周练(1)英语试题 含答案
2021年高三下学期周练（1）英语试题含答案一、阅读理解If you look at the night sky, you’ll often see stars moving very quickly. In fact, they move much more quickly than they should according to their size and the laws of physics.Scientists do not pletely understand why the speed of these stars is so high. But many believe the reason is that much of the universe is made of something called “dark matter”. Groups of stars called galaxies, such as the Milky Way, might even be made up of 90 percent dark matter.How much something weighs depends on where it is. The same object weighs only half as much on Mars as it does on Earth and almost three times as much on Jupiter. So scientists prefer to talk about the mass (质量) of something rather than how much it weighs, because mass does not change. They can work out the mass of galaxies by measuring the distance between them and the speed they move at. Recently, Jorge Peñarrubia, a senior academic at Edinburgh University, UK, and his team discovered something interesting: The mass of the Milky Way is only half as much as the mass of another nearby galaxy, Andromeda. This seems strange, and dark matter may explain why.Finding out more about dark matter could help us understand how the universebegan, but this is not easy. Lots of scientists with different types of expert knowledge are working on the problem.We can’t see dark matter, it’s very difficult to measure and we can’t find out its mass. Unlike stars, dark matter doesn’t produce or reflect light. But we can make a good guess that it is there because of the way things move and the way light bends. Experts now think dark matter may be very different from the matter that we find on Earth. There may also be five times as much dark matter in the universe as ordinary matter.1．Something that weighs 15kg on Earth weighs about _____ on Mars and _____ on Jupiter.A. 7.5 kg, 45 kgB. 30 kg, 45 kgC. 45 kg, 7.5 kgD. 5 kg, 30 kg2．The author mentions the masses of the Milky Way and Andromeda mainly to _____.A. explain why the same object has a different weight on different starsB. pare the distance between the Milky Way and AndromedaC. show that studying dark matter could help to answer some scientific questionsD. support the idea that scientists prefer to talk about mass instead of weight 3．Dark matter is difficult to investigate because _____.A. it travels at a very fast speedB. we can’t see where it is or measure its massC. it’s hard to measure the light it produces and reflectsD. it is much bigger than ordinary matter in size4．According to the text dark matter _____.A. could accelerate the speed of starsB. could lessen the mass of objects in galaxiesC. makes up the entire universe and its starsD. may help us identify the origins of the universeWhat's the most important thing in life?People's answers vary greatly. For British scientist Robert Edwards, the answer is having a child. "Nothing is more special than a child," he told the BBC.Edwards, the inventor of the In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) technology—more monly known as "test-tube (试管) baby" technology—passed away on April 10, xx at the age of 87."Edwards changed the lives of millions of ordinary people who now rejoice (高兴) in the gift of their own child," said Peter Braude, a professor at King'sCollege London. "He leaves the world a much better place."Edwards started his experiments as early as the 1950s, when he had just finished his PhD in genetics. At that time, much of the public viewed test-tube babies as "scary", according to Mark Sauer, a professor at Columbia University, US.Edwards and his colleague Patrick Steptoe faced opposition from churches, governments and media, not to mention attacks from many of their fellow scientists. "People said that we should not play God and we should not interfere with nature," Edwards once told Times. He said that he felt "quite alone" at the time."But Edwards was a fighter, and he believed in what he was doing," said Sauer. Without support from the government, the two struggled to raise funds to carry on. And in 1968 they finally developed a method to successfully fertilize human eggs outside the body.The first test-tube baby was born on July 25, 1978. Her name was Is Louise Brown. Despite people's safety concerns, Brown was just as healthy as other children."IVF had moved from vision to reality and a new era in medicine had begun,"BBC mented.Ever since then, public opinion has evolved considerably. Couples who were unable to have babies began thronging (拥向) to Edwards' clinic. Nowadays, Reuters reports, some 4.3 million other "test-tube" children exist. Edwards received a Nobel Prize in xx and was knighted (封为爵士) by Queen Elizabeth in the following year.Before his death, Edwards was still in touch with Louise. "He is like a granddad to me," she said in an interview with the Daily Mail.He is a granddad to millions, in fact.5．What’s the article mainly about?A. The first test-tube baby.B. A new era in medicine.C. The inventor of IVF technology.D. The changes IVF technology has brought.6．The writer mentioned Peter Braude to .A. show how difficult it was for Edwards to do his workB. describe what kind of person Edwards wasC. explain why he is loved by all childrenD. ment on his achievement7．The underlined word "opposition" in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to " "A. attackB. supportC. testD. influence8．What is the correct order of events in Edwards' life?a. He received a Nobel Prize.b. He struggled to raise funds.c. The first test-tube baby was born.d. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.e. He succeeded in fertilizing human eggs outside body.f. He started his experiments on IVF technology.A. f-e-b-c-a- dB. f-b-e-c-d-aC. f-b-e-c-a-dD. f-e-d-a-c-bA warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off—if it is milked from a cow at night.Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety. The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed withdried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food. Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer. While the effect of cows milk harvested at different times has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax.Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists remending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night. 9．According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk_______.A. started sleep more easilyB. were less activeC. were more anxiousD. woke up later10．Which of the following is TRUE of melatonin according to the text?A. It’s used in sleeping drugsB. It exists in milk in great amountC. It can make people more energeticD. It’s been tested on mice for ten years11．What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Milk Drinking and HealthB. Fat, Sugar and HealthC. An Experiment on MiceD. Night Milk and Sleep12．How does the author support the theme of the text?A. By giving examples.B. By providing research results.C. By explaining statistical data.D. By stating argumentsIs it possible that the sinking of the Titanic was caused by a ghost? A lot of the story below is true… but did it really happen quite like this?Our story begins not in the icy cold waters of the North Atlantic, but rather thousands of miles away in Egypt. It is here, perhaps, that we can find the startof the mystery of the Titanic, in the year 1910, in the great city of Cairo.One day, a famous professor of Egyptian history called Douglas Murray was staying in Cairo, when he was contacted by an American adventurer.The American had something unusual to offer Murray, something that was certain to thrill him: a beautiful ancient Egyptian mummy case, containing the mummy of an Egyptian queen. It was over 3000 years old, but in beautiful condition ------ gold, with bright paintings on it. Murray was delighted with both the object and the asking-price. He gave the man a cheque immediately.The cheque was never cashed. That evening the American adventurer died. For his part, Murray arranged to have the treasure sent back to Britain. However, it was not long before he learnt more about the beautiful mummy case: On the walls of the tomb in which it had been discovered, there were messages which warned of terrible consequences to anyone who broke into the tomb. Murray was disbelieving of these warnings until a few days later, when a gun he was holding exploded in his hand, shattering his arm. The arm had to be cut off.After the accident, Murray decided to return to his homeland. On the return journey, two of his panions died mysteriously, and two servants who had handled the mummy also passed away. The now-terrified Murray decided he would get rid of the cursed case as soon as he arrived in London. A lady he knew named JanetJones said she would like it, so he gave it to her. Shortly afterwards, Jones’ mother died, and she herself caught a strange disease. She tried returning the mummy, but naturally Murray refused it. In the end, it was presented to the British Museum.Even in the museum, the mummy apparently continued to cause strange events.A museum photographer died shortly after taking pictures of the new exhibit; and a manager also died for no apparent reason. In the end, the British Museum decided to get rid of the mummy too. They sold it to a collector in New York. At the start of April 1912, arrangements for the transfer were plete, and the mummy began the journey to its new home. But the New Yorker never received the mummy or its case. For when the Titanic sank, one of the objects in its strong room was the mummy case. Or so they say.13．In Paragraph 5, the underlined word “cursed” is closest in meaning to ______.A. forgottenB. unmonC. unluckyD. expensive14．In what order did the following events occur?a. The case was given to the British Museum.b. Janet Jones caught a mysterious illness.c. Murray’s arm was cut off.d. The mummy case was sold to an American.e. A man who took a picture of the case died.f. Warnings were written on the tomb’s walls.A. f, c, b, a, e, dB. c, f, b, a, e, dC. d, f, b, c, a, eD. f, a, c, b, e, d15． According to the passage, where is the Egyptian mummy now?A. At the British MuseumB. In New YorkC. In EgyptD. Under the sea16．What’s the main purpose of this passage?A. To introduce an important historical event to readers.B. To entertain readers with a story of mystery.C. To warn readers about the dan gers of mummies’ curses.D. To inform readers about the true cause of the Titanic’s sinking.二、完形填空阅读下面短文，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。

Henry went to Texas, where he tried different jobs. He first worked on a newspaper, and then had a job in a bank, when some money went missing from the bank O. Henry was believed to have stolen it. Because of that, he was sent to prison. During the three years in prison, he learned to write short stories. After he got out of prison, he went to New York and continued writing.

The couple had decided that instead of hosting their friends and family for a traditional feast reception, they would feed the victims from an earthquake-stricken area.The idea came from the bridegroom's father, Ted, who volunteers for a Turkish relief organization. For the past few years, the organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of people who've suffered from natural disasters. He approached a representative of the organization and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding themfor the day.Then he told his son, who was surprised by the suggestion, but soon won over. When he told that to the bride, she was really shocked but finally accepted because in southeastern Turkey there is a real culture of sharing with people in need. They love to share their food, their table and everything they have. And afterwards she was quite amazed about it. So, they arrived at the distribution center on Thursday to spend the day serving food and taking photographs with their grateful recipients（接受者）．On Tuesday evening, the newly married couple were still pleased with their decision to quit a personal celebration for one with a greater good. "It's like sharing a dinner with your friends and family who have this kind of thing on a daily basis - or sharing something with people who don't even have the most basic things," Michael said. "Hopefully, this will also give the start for other wedding dinners to be held here with our brothers and sisters in need."25. Why did so many people crowd in Kilis?A. To attend Michael and Linda's wedding.B. To support the organization.C. To escape the damaging earthquake.D. To help distribute free daily meals.26. How did the couple celebrate their wedding?A.

Michael doubted if more new couples would follow him二．七选五Do you want to improve your quality of life? Here is some advice.1. Make it a point of doing something brave every day. 36 This might mean talking to someone that you generally wouldn’t talk to or starting a project that you feel afraid of. There is no need to plan it in advance.2. Learn something new. Pick a topic, especially something you know nothing about and learn something from it. 37 It helps to keep it if you have time to make a note of what you have learned.3. Debate something. If you think you know about something, nothing will prove it like arguing it with someone who’s smarter than you. 38 This is easier said than done, but it can provide you with some of the best mental stimulation.4. Spend time with a child. 39 If you don’t, I bet you have friends who would be happy to let you borrow theirs for a few minutes.It doesn’t matter what age they a re—children see the world entirely differently. Look at it from their eyes. Be their hero. Appreciate what they appreciate. Enjoy the simple things again. You’ll love it and they’ll love you for it.5. Recognize what makes you happy. 40 Everyone is working towards something, but what makes you happy now? Think of it and try to incorporate (并入) more of what made you happy yesterday into today.A. If you have one, consider yourself lucky.B. Talking with little children keeps you young.C. Spend some time each day alone with your thoughts.D. A good source of inspiration for this can be the newspaper.E. Find a friend you can debate with who has different ideas.F. Step out of your comfort zone, and leave the routine for a second.G. Reflect on the parts of your day that bring you real happiness.三．完形填空One day on the way to school, a little boy found a cocoon(茧) of a butterfly and watched it almost every day.

高三英语上学期第1周周练高三全册英语试题
领兑市安插阳光实验学校中学高三英语上学期第10周周练一、阅读理解第一节AAs the world prepares to mark the 100thanniversary of International Women’s Day on March8,2010, a new report details the progress andchallenges girls face in getting an education.The report—from the Education for All Fast Track Initiative—highlights the importance of girls’ education for economic and social development. It follows progress in Ethiopia, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Guinea, Mauritania, Mozambique and Niger.Prema Clarke, author of Fasttracking Girls’ Education, says, “Progress for girls’ education is that they can leave their homes, leave their families and come to a place to study and to learn. And that’s a big achievement because otherwise these girls have to stay at home, looking after their brothers and sisters, doing the cooking or doing the cleaning.”She says progress toward the Millennium Development Goals and those of Education for All is “allowing and enabling girls and forcing countries to look at this issue(问题)and to ensure that interventions(干预)help girls attend school.”BenefitsImproving education for girls brings many benefits, says Clarke. “It means that girls can then enter the workforce. They can look after their own families much more effectively. They can prevent child death rate. They can educate their own girl children when they begin to expand their own families.” Studies show that having an educated female population helps to improve a country’s health and economic wellbeing.WarningsThe report says, “In developing countries, too many girls are not in school, and many girls face continuing health risks and danger just walking to class.”“Especially in the fragile and postconflict countries and in many of the African countries, this is a real issue，” she says. Till now, the interventions have been so focused on providing schooling and providing teachers, etc. And now I think there is much more expanded focus on looking at specific communities of girls within atrisk groups that now need much more specific attention and much more creative solutions to help them attend school.21. The underlined word “highlights” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”．A. reducesB. stressesC. remarksD. improves22. According to Clarke, improving education can provide girls with all the opportunities EXCEPT________.A. to educate their own girl childrenB. to prevent child death rateC. to enter the workforceD. to study abroad23. This passage is intended to________.A. promote the progress in girls’ educationB. talk about the benefits of improving girls’ educationC. talk about the problem girls are facing in educationD. sing high praise for girls’ education24. It can be inferred from the passage that________.A. the girls’ educational situation in developing countries is still seriousB. girls were free to go wherever they wanted in the pastC. there are enough teachers in most of the African countriesD. International Women’s Day was first celebrated on March 8 in 1900BThe smiling face of Santa Claus appears all across China. Local governments are decorating trees and lamp posts with lights and ornaments. At first glance visitors would think they were in Europe.Despite the fact that most Chinese are not Christians, Christmas season has become increasingly popular.“If you ha d walked around major Chinese cities 15 years ago, you wouldn’t have seen many signs of Christmas. However, if you were to visit those same Chinese cities again today, you’d be surprised to see signs of Christmas almost everywhere，” says Cai Jiming, a pro fessor with Tsinghua University, who has served as an expert in developing China’s holiday schedule.Although Christmas is not a public holiday, many Chinese cities are still getting into the Christmas spirit.Cai says his email inbox and cellphone have b een flooded with messages wishing him a merry Christmas. The greetings have been coming in since the end of November.In his view, Christmas seems like a “warmup” for the truly important monthlong Spring Festival, which begins on Feb. 3 next year.However, despite the prevalence(流行)of Christmas celebrations, for most Chinese, it neither means a religious celebration nor an occasion for family reunions. Instead, it is a time for relaxing with friends, a time to shop, a time to have a party and it is especially a time for romance.“It seems to me that everything associated with Christmas time is romantic.”On the streets, rose and chocolate peddlers are competing for their business.Christmas has become another Valentine’s Day, and at the same time, more people feel it is a time to reward themselves with good food anda good time.25. From the first paragraph, we know________.A. Christmas has become the most important festival in ChinaB. Christmas is celebrated by most of people in ChinaC. Santa Claus doesn’t appear in Europe any more on ChristmasD. The smiling faces of Santa Claus are hung on the trees in local governments26.

The smiling face of Santa ClausCThe City Bike program rolled into New York last spring and proved a hit, with nearly 12,000 New Yorkers signing up for annual memberships. Since 2010, over a dozen US cities have introduced bike-share programs.There’re plenty of bike stations near parks and other car-free areas. The programs we looked at in major cities work the same way. You buy a 24-hour pass. During the time, you get an unlimited number of 30-minute rides. If you go over your given half-hour ride time, you start paying fees for each following 30-minute period. Here are some of the biggest bike-share program in America.Minneapolis: Nice Ride MinnesotaStation : Minnehaha Ave. & Minnehaha PkwyHow much: $ 6 for a 24-hour pass.How it works: The first 30 minutes are included in the pass; $ 1.50 for the second 30 minutes; $ 4.50 for the third 30 minutes; later $ 6 for every half an hour.Chicago: Divvy BikesStation : Lakeshore Drive and Monroe St; also Museum CampusHow much: $ 7 for a 24-hour pass, with unlimited 30-minute trips.How it works: The first 30 minutes are included in the pass; $ 2 for the second 30 minutes; $ 6 for the third 30 minutes; later $ 8 for every half an hour.New York City: Citi BikeStation : Central Park So. & 6th Ave; also Broadway & W.57th St.How much: $ 9.95 for a 24-hour pass.How it works: The first 30 minutes are included in the pass; $ 4 for the second 30 minutes; $ 9 for the third 30 minutes; later $ 12 for every half an hour.Boston: HubwayStation : Tremont St. & West St.How much: $ 6 for a 24-hour pass.How it works: The first 30 minutes are included in the pass; $ 2 for the second 30 minutes; $ 4 for the third 30 minutes; later $ 8 for every half an hour.We are volunteers.

In the past, people preferred a hand-written application letter．However, nowadays it is becoming more and more common to apply for a job through the Internet．You can find information on the Internet about how to apply for jobs．Information can be found about how to fulfill your application letter, the clothes that you should wear and how to carry out the interview itself．The importance of body language is often mentioned，but doesn’t always get the attention it deserves．After all，before a word has even been spoken，your body language will have already given people their first impression of you．Additionally, your body language will also give out a lot more information．Based on your body language it can be seen if you are self-confident．It can also show if you are a busy or a quiet type and it helps give an impression of whether you are speaking truthfully or not．Body language can show how enthusiastic you are and if you are a nice person．someone who will take his work seriously, but also someone who has a sense of humor and can enjoy a joke from time to time．The members of the application committee will ask you questions，but your answers won’t only be oral．The committee will not only pay attention to what you say, but also to how you say it! Body language will determine first if it ‘clicks’，and sometimes all it takes is just a few seconds．Everybody uses body language，but it takes place mostly at a subconscious（下意识的） level．Using body language appropriately, you can definitely increase your chances of getting a job．32.What kind of people is the text mainly meant for?A.

But how do you get the best from people and encourage them to be at their most creative.Stress the importance of creativity. 36 If they do n’t understand innovation can keep your firm competitive, your efforts at encouraging creative thinking risk falling flat.Make time for brainstorming. Find some time for new ideas to come out. For example, set aside time for brainstorming, hold regular group works hops(研讨会) and arrange team days out. A team involved in a brainstorming session is likely to be more effective. 37 You should also give individuals the space to reflect privately on their work ifyou think they need it.Challenge the way staff work. 38 Ask people whether they have considered alternative waysof working and what might be achieved by doing things differently.39 Motivate individuals or teams who come up with winning ideas by actively recognizing creativity, for example through an award scheme. You can reward those who just have a rich flow of suggestions, regardless of whether they are put into action at work.Act on ideas. Creative thinking is only worthwhile if it results in action. Provide the time and resources to develop and carry out those ideas worth acting on. 40 In addition, the flow of ideas may well dry up if staff feel the process is pointless.A. Reward creativity.B. The problem is that our minds are lazy.C. Be willing to make mistakes.D. Make sure all your employees know that you want to hear their ideas.E. Individuals within the team can test and improve the ideas together.F. Encourage employees to keep looking at the way they approach their work.G. Failure to do so means that your firm may fail to benefit from innovation.二、完形填空In my dual(双重的)profession__41__an educatorand health care provider, I have worked with manychildren infected with HIV.

第一周周练习阅读+完形011.阅读理解Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight.Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us. If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and nonflowering plants. Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit. Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores (胚芽) , Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.（1）The main idea of the first paragraph is that ________.A.plants are important for lifeB.plants cannot grow without airC.there are many plants in the worldD.we can not live without water（2）Plants can make food from ________.A.flower, water and airB.water, sunlight and airC.air, water and soilD.air, sun and light（3）What can we infer (推断) from the passage?A.Of all living things animals are most important.B.Spores are seeds.C.All fruits of flowering plants have seeds.D.Without plants, man will die out.【答案】（1）A（2）B（3）D【解析】植物是非常重要的生物。

高三英语第一周周练-阅读+完形23(解析版)
第一周周练习阅读+完形231.阅读理解Returning to a book you've read many times can feel like drinks with an old friend. There's a welcome familiarity — but also sometimes a slight suspicion that time has changed you both, and thus the relationship. But books don't change, people do. And that's what makes the act of rereading so rich and transformative.The beauty of rereading lies in the idea that our bond with the work is based on our present mental register. It's true, the older I get, the more I feel time has wings. But with reading, it's all about the present. It's about the now and what one contributes to the now, because reading is a give and take between author and reader. Each has to pull their own weight.There are three books I reread annually The first, which I take to reading every spring is Emest Hemningway's A Moveable Feast. Published in 1964, it's his classic memoir of 1920s Paris. The language is almost intoxicating (令人陶醉的), an aging writer looking back on an ambitious yet simpler time. Another is Annie Dillard's Holy the Firm, her poetic 1975 ramble (随笔) about everything and nothing. The third book is Julio Cortazar's Save Twilight: Selected Poems, because poetry. And because Cortazar.While I tend to buy a lot of books, these three were given to me as gifs, which might add to the meaning I attach to them. But I imagine that, while money is indeed wonderful and necessary, rereading an author's work is the highest currency a reader can pay them. The best books are the ones that open further as time passes. But remember, it's you that has to grow and read and reread in order to better understand your friends.（1）Why does the author like rereading?A.It evaluates the writer-reader relationship.B.It's a window to a whole new world.C.It's a substitute for drinking with a friend.D.It extends the understanding of oneself.（2）What do we know about the book A Moveable Feas!?A.It's a brief account of a trip.B.It's about Hemingway's life as a young man.C.It's a record of a historic event.D.It's about Hemingway's friends in Paris.（3）What does the underlined word "currency" in paragraph 4 refer to?A.DebtB.Reward.C.Allowance.D.Face value.（4）What can we infer about the author from the text?A.He loves poetry.B.He's an editor.C.He's very ambitious.D.He teaches reading.【答案】（1）D（2）B（3）B（4）A【解析】回到一本你读了很多遍的书中，感觉就像和老朋友一起喝酒一样。

Over the loudspeakers we were 19 the plane was readyto leave and were asked to walk 20 to it. Everybody moved quickly in order to get the seats they wanted.

This seems far from the truth. Young people today as a whole are better, more informed, more ambitious, healthier, and more alert than ever before. Why then, it may be asked, do we witness such restlessness and such anti-social behavior among our young people?For the answer the citizens of this community must look at themselves. What have they done to improve the life of our youth? How many playgrounds have been built in the last fifteen year? How many swimming pools? How many vocational training projects have been started? How many community-organized youth parties and picnics have been held?The average citizen will answer that the responsibility for these activities belongs to the schools. But the schools cannot be held responsible for all the free-time activities of all the young people of this community. The job of the schools is formal education, not freetime entertainment.This community needs a youth center suitable for such activities as picnics, camping, sports, music, art, and theatricals. There could be social and entertaining activities to meet the needs and interests of every member of out school age youth.Mayor Elmo D. Greely has proposed the formation of a Youth Club as the first step in the direction of a Youth Center. Mayor Greely has called a meeting at the City Hall on Friday, August 15.36. What does the writer think of the underlined sentence?A. He thinks it is true.B. He thinks it is not true.C. He thinks it is partly true.D. He thinks it is nonsense.37. The main idea of paragraph 2 and 3 is ________.A. to give us lots of questions to show that the problem is seriousB. that schools should hold the responsibility for education rather than entertainmentC. to analyze the reasons why the youth are anti-socialD. that schools should take more activities or star many vocational training projects38. The solution to the problem of the youth's anti-social behavior is___________.A. enriching the life of the youthB. taking part in picnics, campingC. attending a meeting held by MayorD. needing support from youth39. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. The anti-social problem,B. The duty of formal education.C. A Youth Club is Needed.D. A Youth Center is Needed.BAustralia has very strict lawsrelating to the importation andpossession of certain goods. Food, plantmaterial and animal products fromoverseas--including many commonsouvenirs -could introduce some of the world's most serious pests and diseases into Australia. Failing to declare quarantine items (需要(xūyào)检疫的物品) on arrival could destroy our agriculture, tourism industries and special environment.Every piece of luggage will be screened or x-rayed on arrival in Australia. So you must declare for inspection of all food, plant material and animal products to check that they are free of pests and diseases.You must tick YES on the Incoming Passenger Card(IPC) to declare if you are carrying any food, plant material or animal products. In signing the IPC, passengers are making a legal declaration and failure to answer all questions truthfully can have serious consequences.If you fail to declare or dispose of any quarantine items, or make a false declaration:* you will get caught;* you could be fined over A $ 200 on-the-spot; or* you could be prosecuted and fined more than A $ 60,000 and risk up to 10 years imprisonment;If you are not sure about the items you are carrying, ask a quarantine officer who will determine whether they are allowed into Australia.40. The reason why you are asked to declare quarantine items on arrival is that _________.A. too many overseas products could destroy Australia's tourism industry.B. animal products are often the cause of various diseases.C. as is known to us all, bad food can spread diseases easily.D. these items may carry dangerous pests or diseases into Australia.41. You need to declare the following things EXCEPT _______ if you have them in your luggage.A. some metal hairclipsB. dried flowersC. some moon-cakesD. a bottle of honey42. For what purpose is the passage written?A. To inform the passengers of the law on the exportation of goods.B. To warn the passengers not to take unsafe goods.C. To tell the passengers to Australia to have their quarantine items declared.D. To urge the passengers to protect the agriculture, tourism and environment.43. If you don't declare quarantine items, ________.A. you can probably get away with itB. you are sure to be discovered and punishedC. you can turn to the customs officers for helpD. you can give them away to a quarantine officerCToday every independent country has a flag that gives them a unique identity. Usually there is a story and meaning behind each flag. The colours used on a national flag are not used simply because they look good--they usually symbolize something about the growth, values and culture of that country. Sometimes colours mean the same thing in different cultures, but they can often mean different things to people in different cultures.The French flag, sometimes called the "Tricolore", was first used in 1789, after the French Revolution The conclusion of the French Revolution led up to big changes throughout the country. Before the Revolution, there was great unrest because people did not have freedom and had often been treated unfairly. Many people died of starvation. After the Revolution,people had far more freedom, and people were considered equal, and large numbers of people were no longer starving.The colours red, white and blue used on the flag represent the principles of the Revolution-liberty, equality and friendship. Red represents bravery, revolution strength and blood. All these things were needed to change the country. Blue stands for liberty and justice while white represents peace.Strengthened by the Revolution, France became a different country soon after, and today, it is still guided by those beliefs. That France's revolution which was successful in ridding society of inequality had a big effect on many other countries, especially in Europe. Some countries elected to substitute their flags with tricolor flags, after the French. In this way, the French Tricolor has become one of the most influential national flags in history.The USA was also born from revolution, and its flag, the "Stars and Stripes", represents this. The USA was originally an area owned and occupied by Britain. At that time, there were thirteen states, which is far fewer than the fifty that make up today's USA. Some people are very unhappy with the bureaucratic way Britain ruled the country, and were quite outspoken about this. American taxpayers could no longer toleratethat they had no say in the government. They desired independence, but the British opposed this. The Americans saw that their freedom was no longer optional and that their independence would not be won by being passive. On 4 July 1776, the American Declaration of Independence was signed. With this, the USA split from Britain and became an autonomous nation with a federal government.The colours red, white and blue and the stars and stripes on the American flag are all very symbolic. Red represents strength and bravery; white represents purity and innocence; blue stands for hard work and justice. There are fifty stars on the American flag, one for each state. The thirteen stripes represent the original thirteen states that joined together to fight for independence.Each year, on 4 July, the USA celebrates Independence Day when the Stars and Stripes" can be seen all over the country, lit by fireworks in the night sky.44. The passage is mainly aboutA. national flags, colours and culturesB. different colours and culturesC. colours and national flagsD. revolution, cultures and colours45. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Red represents bravery and strength both in France and the USAB. Blue stands for liberty and justice in the USA but hard work and justice in France.C. Colours on national flags usually stand for special things of the countries.D. Generally every national flag has its own story.46. If a country is newly born in Europe from revolution, how would it be likely todesign its national flag?A. In three colours, after the USAB. With stars and stripes.C. In three colours with stars and stripes.D. In three colours, following France.DThere are so many different plastic cards that adults have to carry around—library cards, savings cards for different banks, credit cards, just to name a few... So why not have one to replace them all?Scott Barnhill, an 1l-year-old fifth-grade student in the US, has come up with an idea for a "Security One Card".Sound smart? The US Patent(专利(zhuānlì)) Office thought so, and it approved a patent for his idea in April.Here's an example of how Barnhill's idea would work.Let's say you have the three cards mentioned above. Instead of carrying them all, you could have just one by having additional magnetic strips(磁条) added to it.The magnetic strips can be added to any plastic card, even a blank one.Companies could add their information to one of the strips. For example, you could ask a library to add a strip to your bankcard.Barnhill has a lot of hobbies, including designing websites. He got the idea at the age of 9 when he saw his father using a keycard to enter their hotel room. He thought, "The hotels are wasting money with the key cards." So, instead of using a hotel-issued key card, guests could use their credit cards--if the hotel added a special magnetic strip. At check-out, the strip would simply be removed.Now that he has his patent, his next step is a letter-writing campaign to get support from major credit card companies."I'm going to be writing letters to credit card companies to ask if they can co-operate. I hope they'll give me money every time someone puts a strip on the back of another card, or every time the idea is used, " Barnhill said. "I'll write the letters and see what they say. If they say no, I'll ask someone else, another credit card company."He is hoping to make money from his patent and has decided it would be better to collect royalties(专利(zhuānlì)使用费)if the idea takes off rather than sell his patent."The ATM person who invented that sold it totally, and if he'd chosen royalties he'd get like 2 cents for every transaction (交易) and he'd be a billionaire now," Scott said.47. the advantage of “Security One Card〞 is that it ___________.A. could remove the burden of taking all kinds of plastics cardsB. would be very safeC. could save your moneyD. could have a lot of magnetic strips on it48. The immediate cause of Scott's invention was that _________.A. he found that adults have to carry around so many plastic cardsB. he realized it's big waste to make so many plastic cards instead of only oneC. he found even a hotel issued its own cards--keycardsD. he realized it would be a good chance to make big money49. To use a "Security One Card", ___________.A. one has to add additional magnetic strips to it oneselfB. one has to pay Scott Barnhill each time a magnetic strip is addedC. all the companies need to add their information to a magnetic strip by themselvesD. one has to get the permission of the credit card company first50. The underlined phrase "takes off" in the last but one paragraph probably means ______.A. makes moneyB. wins a lot of supportC. is worth a lotD. is practical51. From the story, we can see Scott is ___________.A. more magic than smartB. clever but lazyC. creative, determined and wiseD. far-sightedEUnited States President George W. Bush is expected to issue a directive in the next few weeks. It will give the US Air force a green light for the development of space weapons, US media reported last week.This would potentially trigger a new global arms race, some experts have warned.To keep that from happening, last Wednesday the White House explained that it was not considering putting weapons in space. It said it was making a shift in US space policy to allow for protection of satellites.But some defense analysts and arms control advocates argue that the policy will pave the way for the US to put both defensive and offensive weapons in space."No one should be fooled," said Theresa Hitches, an American weapons expert.The US is now restricted by a 1996 directive signed by President Bill Clinton. Plans for space weapons were vetoed by the Clinton cabinet. The directive emphasized the peaceful use of space, in agreement with almost unanimous(一致(yīzhì)的) global opinion.The US military has placed importance on space and has sent up numerous satellites for troop communications and to provide intelligence and data to guide bombs to their targets.The US Air force wants to develop space-based weapons that could strike targets any where in the world within 90 minutes of receiving the order to open fire.These new weapons under development cover a wide range. They include hunter-killer satellites(HY卫星) and orbiting weapons(沿轨道运行的武器系统). And they use lasers, radio waves, or even dense metal tubes, known as "Rods from God", dropped from space to do the damage.There are many barriers to the setting up of this kind of program, experts say.First is the cost. It is estimated that the budget may be US $ 220 billion to US $1 trillion. The technical difficulties of developing reliable space weapons are also a problem. And, the move will draw strong criticism from around the world. Experts worry about triggering a space arms race.52. The news report mainly deals with ______.A. US Military Plans.B. The Global Arms RaceC. A Comparison between Two presidents.D. President George W. Bush and the World Peace53. Which of the following statements are mentioned in the passage above?a. President George W. Bush supports space weapon development.b. The US space weapon project is very costly.c. The American space-based weapons to be developed will be able to target any place on the earth.d. The US military has few difficulties with the development of space weapons.e. The space weapon program will threaten world peace.f. Clinton government was poorer than Bush government.A. b,d,e,fB. a,c,d,fC. b,c,d,eD. a,b,c,e54. After reading this passage, it can be inferred that _________.A. George W. Bush's directive to be issued will be against global opinions.B. The White House is right in explaining that US new space policy aims to protect satellites.C. US government has little difficulty in developing new weapons.D. President George W. Bush and Bill Clinton share a lot in common.55. The author's attitude towards the upcoming space weapon development is ________.A. supportive and optimisticB. critical and worriedC. excited and contentD. indifferent but a little encouraged第四节：对话(duìhuà)填空〔一共10小题，每一小题1分，满分是10分〕第五节：书面表达(biǎodá)(满分是25分)周笔畅宣布退出“超女〞演唱会巡演，重返校园。

二、阅读理解满分训练Around twenty years ago I was living in Seattle and going through hard times. I could not find a satisfying job and I found this especially difficult as I had a lot of experience and a Master‟sdegree.To my shame I was driving a school bus to make ends meet (收支平衡) and living with friends. I had been through five interviews with a company and one day between bus runs they called to say I did not get the job. Later that afternoon, while doing my rounds (当班，出勤) through a quiet neighborhood I had an internal (inside) wave-like a scream (尖叫) —come up from deep inside me and I thought “Why has my life become so hard?”Immediately after this internal scream I pulled the bus over to drop off a little girl and as she passed she handed me an earring saying I should keep it in case somebody looked for it. The earring was stamped withwords …BE HAPPY‟. At first I got angry. Then it hit me. I had been putting all of my energies intowhat was wrong with my life rather than what was right! I decided then and there to make a list of 50 things I was thankful to. At first it was hard, and then it got easier. One day I decided to up it to 75. That night there was a phone call for me, asking if I would do a one-day training for 200 hospital workers. I said yes and got the job. My day with the hospital workers went very well. I got a standing welcome and many more days of work. To this day I KNOW that it was because I changed my attitude (态度) to gratitude. By chance, the day after I found the earring the girl asked me if anyone had looked for it. I told her no and she said “I guess it was meant for you then.” I spent the next year doing training workshops all around the Seattle area and then decided to risk everything and go back to Scotland where I had lived before. I closed my one man business and bought a plane ticket One month later I met my wonderful English wife and best friend of 15 years now. We live in a small beautiful house in Scotland.…THE ONL Y ATTITUDE IS GRA TITUDE‟has been my motto (座右铭) for years now and yes, it completely changed my life.1.What is the underlined word it mean in the passage?A.To make a list of things he was thankful toB.The words “BE HAPPY”C.To forget that his life became so hardD.The special earring the girl gave to the writer2.The underlined word gratitude means being?A.thankfulB.openC.carefulD.kind3.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A.The writer made a list of 75 things he was thankful to.B.The writer‟s wife has been his best friend for 15 years.C.The writer has lived in Seattle since 20 years ago.D.The writer did the training for 200 hospital workers.4.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Attitude and GratitudeB.The Girl and IC.Be HappyD.The Earring一、翻译句子1. 他写下了我的地址，以便能够记住它。

They have a need to make decisions, manage their environment and lead rather than follow. Too much rule in the hands of the young isn‟t healthy forchildren or the family. Family expert John Taylor says, “Children have secret feelings of weakness. They are always trying to feel safe. ”It‟s the parents‟duty-not the child‟s-to provide safety. When a “boss child‟‟doesn‟t learn limits(限制)at home, troubles will appear outside the family. Thechild may have trouble obeying(遵守)teachers, for example, or keeping friends. It can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your ruling ways. Bossy kids are often unusually bright. Their parents need to be especially careful to manage them. Bossy kids usually work more on the mother.It‟s important for both parents to know their child‟s weakness, to agree on key rules and to back each up.Even as you try to be kind—to a point—don‟t give up your parental ruling post. Instead, stand your ground by using body language that tells your child who the boss is.Good manners are important to family. Show a child by example how to ask for something rather than shout orders. Try asking your child to do things that are not too difficult. Then reward(奖励)him with a hug(拥抱)and words such as “Thank you. I like it when you listen to me.”Over time good manners will become associated(联结)with pleasure.1. Is the passage mainly about how to teach children?_______________________________________________________________2. Do bossy children usually feel lonely or have a lot of friends?_______________________________________________________________3. Which of the parents should know their child‟s weakness?_______________________________________________________________4.
