We must learn to __39___risks, because if we can't see the risks were taking, we can't make responsible choices.

I'm just checking my answers, not copying, We must be honest about our actions, and____45____ excuses. If we fool ourselves into believing we,re not doing anything wrong, we can'tsee the real choice we're making--and that leads to bad decisions.To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask how you would feel if.your actions were public, and anyone could be watching over your shoulder.

It covers almost every aspect of millennials’ experiences on their path toward adolescence - their struggles with schoolwork, their relationship with peers, their confusion if a younger brother or sister is born into the family, and their growing desire to keep a distance from their parents. But this five-episode series was different from any other TV program with a similar theme.Post-00s was film over a period of 10 years, during which the show's makers followed a group of kids from when they were infants through to when they became teenagers. In other words, the show's "character" grow older for real, and their stories are all real."Coming-of-age" stories, as they're known, have special appeal. They satisfy our curiosity of looking at someone else' life, and we become more and more attached to the characters as if we truly know them. And while we enjoy the truthfulness of the stories because nothing is set in advance, we also cannot help but feel the cruelty of reality. After all, there's no re-writing of the script (副本) and there's no turning back - this is real life.This realness can also be seen in Boyhood. a 2014 film that won the Silver Bear award for best director at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival. During a period of 12 years, the film follows the life of Mason Jr. played by US actor Ellar Coltrane - from when he was 6 to when he finished high school.One of Boyhood's appeals comes from its "ordinariness". Mason Jr. isn't some child genius....He is a quietly spoken, fairly typical American boy, growing up in the Texas suburbs.He likes riding his bike and playing video games.While coming-of-age stories may look ordinary on the outside, they often allow us to look underneath the surface and see something extraordinary— the power of life itself.69. In the documentary, we see post-00's growing experience EXCEPT .A. how they deal with their studies.B. how they help look after brothers or sisters.C. how they get along with people of their ageD. how much they long to be independent of their parents70. What do Post-00 and Boyhood have in common?A. They're intended to win an award for best director.B. The heroes and heroines are characters themselves.C. They're a kind of reality show of ordinary kids' growth.D. The stories are based on true life but polished by writers.71. Audience are interested in "coming-of-age" stories because .A. they can see the truth of lifeB. they know the characters wellC. they are much fond of gossip.D. they appreciate stories of daily life72. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. Post-00s are different geniuses.B. Actors are ordinary characters.C. Documentary is real lifeD. Life is one big StorySection C(4')Directions: complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can only be used once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.“Any apples today?” Effie asked cheerfully at my window. I followed her to her truck and bought a kilo. On credit, of course. Cash was the one thing in the world I lacked just then 73 .All pretense(借口) of payment was dropped when our funds, food and fuel decreased to alarming lows. Effie came often, always bringing some gift: a jar of peaches or some firewood There were other generosities. 74 Effie was not a rich woman. Her income, derived from investments she had made while running an interior decorating shop, had never exceeded $200 a month, which she supplemented by selling her apples. But she always managed to help someone poorer.Years passed before I was able to return the money Effie had given me from time to time. She was ill now and had aged rapidly in the last year. "Here, daring," I said, "is what I owe(欠) you", 75 "Give it back as I gave it to you - a little at a time.” I think she believed there was magic in the slow discharge of a love debt.The simple fact is that I never repaid the whole amount to Effie, for she died a few weeks late. By now, the few dollars Effie gave me have been multiplied many times. But curious thing began to happen.Whenever I saw a fellow human in financial trouble, I was moved to help him. I can't afford to do this always, but in the ten years since Effie’s death, I have indirectly repaid my debt to her.76 At that time, it seemed that my debt would forever go unsettled. So the account can be marked closed, for Effie’s love will go on in hearts that have never known her.第II 卷(21%)IV.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.The Grasshopper in Van Gogh PaintingArt conservators(管理员) dream of finding hidden secrets in the masterpieces they lookafter. Rarely do they expect to find a dead grasshopper.Conservators at the Nelson-Atkins museum of art in Kansas City said they discovered thedead insect in one of its star paintings, Vincent van Gogh’s Olive Trees, when it (77)_______(scan) as part of the research for a catalogue of its French painting collection.It was spotted by Mary Schafer. She told a local broadcaster that she found it in the work’s lower foreground. Looking at the painting with the microscope,I came across the tiny body of a grasshopper covered in the paint, so it must have occurred in the wet paint back in 1889.“We can connect it to Van Gogh painting outside, so we think of him battling the elements, dealing with the wind, the bugs, and then he’s got to walk back to his studio through the fields. What’s fun is that we can come up with all these stories for (78)_______ the insect landed in the paint.”Schafer said they were curious to know if the grasshopper could be studied further to possibly identify (79) season Van Gogh painted Olive Trees.Michael Engel, a professor at the University of Kansas, was approached to examine the grasshopper further. He discovered that part of the insect’s body was missing and there was no sign (80) movement in the surrounding paint. In other words, it was already dead (81)_______ it somehow landed on the artist’s wet canvas and could not be used for dating purposes.Van Gogh painted Olive Trees in 1889, the year after his falling out with his friend Gauguin, (82)_______ may have led to his famous act of self-mutilation in the history of art: cutting off his own ear.The grasshopper may not help in any art historical research but it has become a talking point for museum visitors, looking closely into the painting to see whether they can spot the dead insect.V.

People who drink alcohol earn more at their jobs than non﹣drinkers, according to a US study that highlighted "social capital(社交资本)"gained from drinking.The study concluded that drinkers earn ten to fourteen percent more than ________, and that men who drink socially bring home an additional seven percent in pay."Social drinking builds social capital, " said Edward Stringham, an economics professor, "Social drinkers are outgoing, building relationships, and keeping in contacts, which results in bigger paychecks."The researchers said the most likely explanation is that drinkers have a wider range of social contacts that help provide better job and business opportunities."Drinkers may be able to socialize more with clients and co﹣workers, giving drinkers an advantage in important relationships. Drinking may also provide individuals with opportunities to learn people, business, and social skills."They also said these conclusions provide arguments against policies aimed at controlling alcohol use in university and public places."Not only do anti﹣alcohol policies reduce drinkers' fun, but they may also decrease earnings, " the study said, "One of the consequences of alcohol restrictions is that they push drinking into private behavior. By preventing people from drinking in public, anti﹣alcohol policies ignores one of the most important aspects of drinking: increased social capital."The researchers found some differences in the economic effects of drinking among men and women. They concluded that men who drink earn ten percent more than non﹣drinkers and women drinkers earn fourteen percent more than non﹣drinkers.However, unlike men, who get a seven percent income increase from drinking inbars, women drinkers who visit bars frequently do not show higher earnings than those who do not visit bars.(1)The underlined word "________" in paragraph two is closest in meaning to________.A pay checkersB non﹣drinkersC co﹣workersD women drinkers.(2)What's NOT the consequence of anti﹣alcohol policy?________A More people drink in private.B There is less alcohol inuniversities.

While income worry is a rather common problem of the aged, loneliness is another problem that aged parents may face. Of all the reasons that explain their loneliness, a large geographical distance between parents and their children is the major one. This phenomenon is commonly known as "Empty Nest Syndrome".In order to seek better chances outside their countries, many young people have gone abroad, leaving their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will returnhome. Their parents spend countless lonely days and nights, taking care of themselves, in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them. The fact that mostof these young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they had not left their countries. Whatever the case, it has been noted that the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually do. This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the grown﹣up children from providing response in time for their aged parents living by themselves.The situation in which grown﹣up children live far away from their aged parents has been described as "distant parent phenomenon", which is common both in developed countries and in developing countries. Our society has not yet been well prepared for "Empty Nest Syndrome".(1)According to the passage, the loneliness of aged parents is mainly caused by________.A their earlier experience of feeling lonely B the unfavorable living conditions in their native countries C the common worry about their income D the geographical distance between parents and children.(2)Many young people have gone abroad, leaving their aged parents behind, to________.A live in the countries with more money B seek a better place for their agedparents C continue their studies abroad D realize their dreams in foreign countries.(3)If young people go abroad,________.A they do not hold to the value of duty at allB they can give some help to their parents back homeC they cannot do what they should for their parentsD they believe what they actually do is right.(4)From the last paragraph, we can infer that________.A the situations in the developed and developing countries are differentB "Empty Nest Syndrome" has arrived unexpectedly in our societyC children will become independent as soon as they go abroadD the aged parents are not fully prepared for "Empty Nest Syndrome".Section CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box. Each sentence can only be used once. Note that there are two sentences more than you need.7. A. It can also be caused by the inappropriate use of fluoride drops or other fluoride supplements.B. It's evident that fluoride has negative effects on teeth, especially children's teeth.C. So you are right ﹣ fluoride can be poisonous if it is swallowed in very large quantities.D. If a deadly amount of fluoride is taken, immediate first﹣aid could save a life.E. That is why they should only have a tiny amount of fluoride toothpaste on their toothbrush.F. Fluoride toothpastes are advertised too extensively in TV commercials.I have heard that fluoride(氟化物)can help stop dental decay, but I recently read that it is poisonous. Which of these is true? How can children use fluoride safely?This question is answered thanks to Dr Marcia M. Rich who practices general dentistry in Newholt. She is also a lecturer at the University and a writer for the monthly magazine Your Dentist Cares.My answer to the first question is to stress that fluoride works well and is safe when users follow instructions. Young children have a tendency to swallow toothpaste.(1)________ If this simple measure is taken, parents can be confident that children will be protected against tooth decay, and come to no harm.Almost all medicines can have a negative effect ﹣ or even be deadly ﹣ if they are not taken as directed.(2)________ It is for this reason that fluoride supplements can only be obtained on prescription from a doctor or dentist.Taking too much fluoride while teeth are growing can lead to a condition called dental fluorosis(氟中毒). The most likely cause is the swallowing of fluoride toothpastes by young children.(3)________For example, when fluoride is already present in drinking water, the overconsumption of it can seldom be avoided. But don't be too worried,since fluoride overdoses are rare. In fact, I have never heard of any fatal incidents related to the fluoride poisoning.Scientific studies have shown that fluoride can help to prevent cavities(龋齿)as long as it is used correctly. But it is also true that if fluoride is abused, there is a risk of illness or even death in extreme cases.(4)________ A person who has swallowed a large amount of fluoride will probably start vomiting. If not, the patient should be given milk or antacid and taken to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment.第II卷(共55分)I. Summary8. Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then write an English summary within 60words in your own words according to the passage given below.In the past two hundred years people have caused many kinds of animals to die out﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣ to become extinct. People keep building houses and factories in fields and woods. As they spread p\over the land, they destroy animal's homes. If the animals can't find a place to live, they die out. Sixteen kinds of Hawaiian birds have become extinct for this reason. Other animals, such as the Florida Key deer, may soon die out because they are losing their homes.Hunters have caused some animals to become extinct, too. In the last century, hunters killed all the passenger pigeons in North America and most of the buffalos. Today they are fast killing off hawks and wolves.Pollution is killing many animals too. As rivers become polluted, fish are poisoned. Many die. Birds that eat the poisoned fish can't lay strong, healthy eggs. New birds aren't born. So far, no animals have become extinct because of pollution. But some, such as the bald eagle and the brown pelican, have become rare and may die out.Scientists think that some animals become extinct because of changes in climate. The places where they live become hotter or cooler, drier or wetter. The food that they eat can't grow there any longer. If the animals can't learn to eat something else, they die. Dinosaurs may have died out for this reason.II.

Grammar and Vocabulary Section AA newly discovered tea plant is caffeine-freeThe world loves tea and some 3m tons of tea are consumed every year. Tea can be good for health, as it contains compounds that help to lower cholesterol(胆固醇)and reduce the risk of heart disease. But there is a downside. Tea contains caffeine which, (21) __________ it improves mental alertness, can also cause anxiety, insomnia and other problems.(22) __________ would be agreeable is that a tea plant that provides all the taste and goodness but with little or (23)__________ of the caffeine has been found.

It may be with somebody who will ___32___ your energy whenever you are with them. Or worse, it could be someone who always cuts youdown. This person may be a family member or even a friend. No matter who it is, it’s necessary that you learn to set boundaries for yourself. Otherwise this kind of relationship can chip away at your self-esteem.Setting boundaries for difficult relationships starts by ___33___ how you are affected by the relationship. Do they bring you closer to your goals or pull you farther away? For example, it’s time to study for tomorrow’s test. But your friend wants to take you to a party. Here, setting boundaries will help protect your ___34___ goals.Next, decide how much time you should spend with these people. It’s easy to overcommit yoursel f. But it’s difficult to help others if you forget to protect your own ___35___.How do you know if a relationship is unhealthy, and it’s time to set boundaries? Here are a few practical questions to ask yourself.1.How does this relationship affect me?Every ___36___ can affect you positively or negatively. For example, someone whopressures you to something you’re not comfortable doing will ____37___ you out. But a friend who considers how you feel will respect your ___38___ to try something new.2.Why am I in this relationship in the first place?People may try to keep you in an unhealthy relationship. By ___39___ you it’s your obligation or duty, you forget about your own needs. Sadly, by remaining ___40___ to these people, you forget who you are. You allow them to take advantage of youor even belittle you.Settling boundaries requires taking a long, honest look at yourself. By saying “no” to harmful patterns in relationships, you say “yes” to a healthier you.III. Reading ComprehensionSection AAccording to German novelist Heinrich Mann (1871-1950), a house without books is like a room without windows. Mann___41___ pointed out the value of books, but some researchers have found evidence that people with books in their homes really do gain a window on the world.A new study in the journal Social Science Research, publishing in October, suggests that people who grow up with more books are more likely to have educational ___42___, and to achieve more in life, than people who grow up without them. In the study, over 160,000 adults from 31 countries and regions were asked about the number of books there were in their homes when they were 16 years old. Then they were_ 43_ in literacy, numeracy (计算能⼒) and information communication technology.The research shows that the number of books for each household 44_ greatly from country to country.45 _, the number of books is 27 in Turkey, 143 in the UK and 218 in Estonia. But "the total 46 _ of home library size on literacy are large everywhere” , according to researcher Joann Sikorn of Australian National University in a paper based on the study.The researcher found that people who had lower levels of secondary eduation but had a large number of books at home got a(n)_47_ score as university graduates who grew up with only a few books.The Guardian newspaper commented that “bookish adolescence makes for a good deal of educational advantage." "Reading books in a young age can _ 48 shortcomings not only in adult literacy but also numeracy; its impacts are __49 to additional years of education." Sikora told Science Alert.Apart from the educational benefits, growing up with more books also plays an important role in adultsuccess."Early _50_ to books in the parental home matters because books are an essential part of routines and practices that 5l_ lifelong cognitive (认知的)abilities", Sikora told Science Alert.

But it can be hard to keep a secret. We're often tempted to “spill the beans”, even if we regret it later来源:ZXXK]According to Asim Shah, professor in the Menninger Department of Psychiatry and Bchavioral Sciences at Baylor College of Medicine, US, keeping a secret may well “become a burden". This is because people often have an "obsessive (⽆法摆脱的) and anxious urge to share it with someone".An earlier study, led by Anita E. Kelly, a scientist at the University of Notre Dame, US, suggested that keeping a secret could cause stress. People entrusted with secrets can suffer from depression, anxiety, and body aches, reported the Daily Mail. But with secrets so often getting out, why do people share them at all? Shah explained that people often feel that it will help them keep a person as a friend. Another reason people share secrets is guilt over keeping it from someone close to them. A sense of distrust can develop when people who are close do not share it with each other. "Keeping or sharing secrets often puts people in a position of either gaining or losing the trust of someone." according to Shah.He added that talkative people could let secrets slip out. But this doesn't mean that it is a good idea only to share secrets with quiet people. A quiet person may be someone who keeps everything inside. Totell such a person a secret may cause them stress, and make them talk about the secret.Shah said that to judge whether to tell someone a secret, you'd better put yourself in their position. Think about how you would feel to be told that you mustn't give the information away. Shah also recommended that if you accidentally give up someone's secret you should come clean about it. Let the person know that their secret isn't so secret anymore.56. The underlined phrase "spill the bean" is closest in meaning to ________.A. let out a secretB. tell the truthC. eat our wordsD. take gossip57. A person who is entrusted with a secret ________.A. is oft often obsessed with a certain threatB. often would rather not have been told about itC. usually has a strong desire to keep it until deathD. may suffer from physical or psychological problems58. What can we learn from the passage?A. Quiet people are more likely to keep the secrets to themselves.B. Sharing secrets helps establish friendship or get over the sense of guilt.C. It's better to inform others of the chances of your leaking secrets beforehand.D. Putting yourself in others' shoes helps realize the difficulty of keeping secrets.59. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Walls have ears.B. Still tongues make wise heads.C. A word spoken is past recalling.D.

But have you ever wonder why it occurs to us that it’s someone else’s footsteps , not ours?According to a new study published in the journal Nature in September, this phenomenon arises from a function in our brain to ignore the noise we make ourselves.In order to explore how our brain does this, a group of scientists carried out an experiment with mice at Duke University. The research entered on an intuition(直觉)---that we are usually unaware of the sound of our own footsteps ---as a vehicle for understanding larger neural(神经系统的) phenomena; how this behavior reveals the ability to monitor, recognize, and remember the sound of one’s own movements in relation to those of their larger environments.In the experiment, research controlled the sounds of a group of mice could hear, reported Science Daily. During the first several days, the mice would hear the same sound each time they took a step. This was just like “running on a tiny piano with each key playing exactly the same note”, senior study author Richard Mooney, a professor of neurobiology at Duke University, told Live Science.Scientists found that their auditory cortex (听觉⽪层) – the area of the brain that processes sound –became active at first but decreased its response to the sound after two or three minutes when the mice became familiar with it.“ It’s almost like they were wearing special headphones that could filter(过滤) out the sound of theirown movements.” David Schneider, an assistant professor at the Center for Neutral Science at New York University, told HuffPost.But once the sound changed, their auditory cortex became active again. This suggests that the “sensory filter” in a mouse’s brain could help it detect new sounds or abnormal noise in the environmenteasily after tuning out familiar sounds.“For mice, this is really important,” said Schneider. “They are prey animals, so they really need to beable to li sten for a cat creeping up on them, even when they’re walking and making noise.Being able to ignore the sounds of one's own movements is likely important for humans as well. Butthe ability to predict the sounds of our own actions is also important for more complex human behaviorssuch as speaking or playing an instrument."When we learn to speak or to play music, we predict what sounds we are going to hear – such aswhen we prepare to strike keys on a piano –and we compare this to what we actually hear, "explains Schneider. “We use mismatches between expectation and experience to change how we play – and we getbetter over time because our brain is trying to minimize these errors.”63. What can be discovered about mice in the experiment?A. Their brain responds inactively to the familiar soundsB. They are able to detect sounds other animals don’t notice.C. They cannot identify different sounds except their own footsteps.D. Different areas of their brain are responsible for different sounds.64. What’s the function of the sensory filter?A. Getting used to abnormal or unfamiliar sounds.B. Ignoring the sounds made by our companions.C. Identifying the sounds from a larger environmentD. Being sensitive to the sounds of our own movement.65. Why can a good symphony conductor immediately recognize it when a wrong note is played?A. He has the ability to match the wrong note with the instrument player.B. He has an intuition that he should ignore the sound of his own movement.C. He has a low expectation and knows where players are likely to make errors.D. He has a good prediction of how each note should be played in the orchestra.66. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Noise-filtering ability ensures us a quiet and undisturbed environment.B. The ability to ignore familiar noises helps to detect potential dangers.C. The activeness of auditory cortex determines our activity performance.D. Sound-predicting ability seems not so important for humans as for animals.Section CA. Pronouns offer an insight into whether people see themselves as individuals or as part of a whole.B. If you are speaking in a person context, you're speaking about something that's of relevance to you.C. Their research also found that "we-talk" is helpful for resolving conflicts.D. Self-centered people are found to be indifferent to many things in society and other people because all their concentration is only on themselves and their needs.E. This analysis of "we-talk" suggested that the frequent use of "we" and "us" is linked to happier and healthier relationships.F. They found that too much "I-talk" was an accurate linguistic marker for the likelihood that someone is feeling stressed or experiencing negative emotions.Building a lasting social relationshipWe all know that friends are special people who we share our lives with, and who share their liveswith us in return. But seeking friends and keeping the friendship going are never easy.According to research recently published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, the key is to use "we-talk". Led by University of California psychologist Megan Robins and her colleagues, the researchers reviewed and analyzed 30 different studies involving over 5, 000 participants.___67____.The word "we" moves people from an indi vidual position into a partnership, which makes us more interdependent."____68____.Word use is a window into what people are thinking and feeling without asking them." Robbins told Science Daily._____69______. The primary point is that interdependence may bring about supportive and relationship-centered behaviors and positive perceptions of the partner--especially important in times of stress and disagreement.Contrary to "we-talk", there is "I-talk", which refers to the frequent use of the first-person singular pronouns, such as "I", "me"and "mine", when writing or speaking. Earlier this year, researcher analyzed a set of data that came from 4,7000 people in Germany and t he US. ______70_____. As you can see from the two studies, too much "I-talk" can make you feel depressed. But "we-talk" can encourage you to become more positive and create a chain effect of healthy interdependence with others.So next time you are talking to a friend, try using more "we-talk". You may find yourself feeling more positive--and the effect it will have on your friend will be positive as well.IV. Summary WritingWhen we wake up feeling sleepy and with dark circles under eyes, many of us often think:” I’m going to go to bed earlier tomorrow!” But however determined we are, chances are that we don’t stick to our promise. This behavior is called “bedtime procrastination(拖延症)”.According to a study carried out by a group of health psychologists at Utrecht University in the Netherlands in 2014, bedtime procrastination is a common problem. In their study, 53 percent of the 2,400 participants said they didn’t follow their sleep schedule, delaying it at least twice a week.It’s found that they delayed bedtime not because they liked to stay up late, but they couldn’t stop doing other unimportant things, which were keeping them up in the first place.“People who generally have trouble resisting temptations and sticking to their intentions are more likely to dela y going to bed.” Floor Kroese, a psychologist at Utrecht University, further explained to HuffPost.Yet, according to scientists, lack of self-control is not the only thing to blame. Our body clock also plays an important role when it comes to bed time. In order to check the influence of the body clock on sleep, psychologists at Ulm University in Germany studied the sleep patterns of 108 people in February. It was found that those who get up late are more likely to postpone their bedtime than those who wake early every morning.“The intention to go to bed earlier is not enough,” Jane Kuhnel, a psychologist at Ulm University, concluded in Popular Science. “Biological processes need to support this intention.”People always think that bedtime procrastination isn’t a big problem, but as Kroese told Popular Science, “the choices we make that affect out sleep could turn out to be pretty important for our health.”V.

2018-2019年度第一学期高一英语期末测试卷附答案
第一学期高一级期末英语试卷(时间:100分钟;满分:120分)本试卷分第Ⅰ卷(选择题)和第Ⅱ卷(非选择题)两部分。
第Ⅰ卷第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题, 每小题2分,满分30分)ATwo brothers, Herbert and James, lived with their mother and a cat named Edgar. James was particularly devoted to the cat, and when he had to leave town for several days, he left Herbert careful instructions about the pet’s care. At the end of his first da y away, James telephoned his brother, “How is Edgar?”“Edgar is dead.” Herbert answered. There was a pause. Then James said, “Herbert, you’re insensitive (漠然的). You know how close I was to Edgar. You should have broken the news to me slowly. When I asked about Edgar tonight, you should have said, ‘Edgar’s on the roof , but I have called the fire department to get him down.’ And tomorrow when I called, you could have said the firemen were having trouble getting Edgar down, but you were hopeful they would succeed. Then when I called the third time, you could have told me that the firemen have done their best, but unfortunately Edgar had fallen off the roof and was at the veterinarian’s (兽医站). Then when I called the last time, you could have said that although everything possible had been done for Edgar, he had died. That’s the way a sensitive man would have told me about Edgar. And, oh, before I forget,” James added, “how is mother?”“Oh,” Herbert said, pausing for a moment, “She’s on the roof.”1. James telephoned his brother at the end of his first day away because he wanted to know _____.A. what he was doingB. whether he was goodC. whether the cat was goodD. where his mother was2. Why did James say his brother was insensitive?A. Because he told him the news directly.B. Because he killed their pet.C. Because his mother was on the roof.D. Because he missed the truth about the cat.3. From the last paragraph of the passage, we can know that the mother was probably _____.A. on the roofB. ill or even deadC. repairing the houseD. playing gamesBIs there anything more important than health? I don’t think so.“Health isthe greatest wealth.”wise people say. You can’t be good at y our studies or work well when you are ill. If you have aheadache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach , if you complain of a bad cough,if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think youshould go to t he doctor.The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, tes t your bloodpressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test y our eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed. After that he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing youhave to do is to follow his advice.Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funn y story.An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill.He told the doctor abouthis weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined himand said there was no medicine for his disease.He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He a lso advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day andtake long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.”The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, heshouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He l ooked cheerful andhappy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.“ But youknow, doctor,”he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”4. The writer thinks that_____.A. health is more important than wealthB. work is as important as studiesC. medicine is more important than pleasureD. nothing is more important than money5. The doctor usually tells his patient what to do______.A. without examining the patientB. after he has examined the patientC. if the patient doesn’t take medicineD. unless the p atient feels pain6. The underlined part means “”.A. he was feeling better than everB. he wasn’t a healthy manC. he was feeling worse than beforeD. he will be w ell again7. From the last sentence of the passage, we learn the man_______ before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day.A. was a heavy smokerB. didn’t smoke so muchC. didn’t smokeD. began to learn to smokeCIt doesn’t matter when and how much a person sleeps , but everyone needs some rest to stay alive. That’s what all doctors thought , until they heard about Herpin. Herpin, it was said , never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.8. The main idea of this passage is that_____rge numbers of people do not need sleepB. a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleepC.everyone needs some sleep to stay aliveD.people can live longer by trying not to sleep9. The doctors came to visit Herpin, expecting_____A.to cure him of his sleeplessnessB.to find that his sleeplessness was not really trueC.to find out why some old people did not need any sleepD.to find a way to free people from the need of sleeping10. After watching him closely, the doctors came to believe that Herpin_____A.needed some kind of sleepB.was too old to need any sleepC.needed no sleep at allD.often sleep in a chair11. One reason that might explain Herpin’s sleeplessness was _____A.his mo ther’s injury before he was bornB.that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habitC.his magnificent physical conditionD.that he hadn’t got a bedDTourism wasn’t as important as it is today. In the past, only people with a good deal of money could travel on holidays to other countries. More people travel today than in the past because there is a growing middle class in many parts of the world; that is to say, people now have more money for travel. Special plane fares(费用) for tourists make travel less expensive and more attractive than ever before. One person doesn’t travel for the same reason as another. But most people enjoy seeing countries that are different from their own. They also like to meet new people and to taste new food.Tourism causes many changes in a country and in people’s lives. People build new hotels and restaurants and train native men and women as guides to show visitors intere sting places. There’re new nightclubs and other amusements. International tourism is clearly a big business.12. In the old days ______ could travel to other countries.A. boys and girls, men or women, young or oldB. either kings or queensC. both the poor and the richD. nobody but those who had money13. What makes travel more attractive than before?A. Travel by air to other countries is much cheaper today.B. More guides are being trained to show beautiful spots.C. Modern telegraph lines make travel less expensive.D. New hotels and restaurants have been built.14. Which of the following statements is true according to the article?A. Tourism won’t bring any changes in people’s minds.B. People have some trouble in making journey.C. With the development of tourism, great changes have taken place in many parts in the world.D. Tourism causes only some changes in clothing.15. What is the best title of the passage?A. The Change of TourismB. TourismC. The Importance of TourismD. The Cause of Tourism Change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。

Charles22.You need to pay _________ if you buy the book A Christmas Carol now .A. $59.60B. $49.60C. $39.60D. $29.6023.Those ads above are most probably from a ___________.A. mapB. dictionaryC. newspaperD. guidebookBMy First Marathon(马拉松)A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was "not athletic".The idea that I was "not athletic"stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!At mile 3, I passed a sign: "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!"By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.By mile 21, I was starving!As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a "marathon winner".24. A month before the marathon, the author ____________.A. made up his mind to runB. felt scaredC. was well trainedD. lost hope25. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year?A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher.B. To amuse the readers with a funny story.C. To show he was not talented in sports.D. To share a precious memory.26. How was the author’s first marathon?A. He quit halfway.B. He made it.C. He got the first prize.D. He walked to the end.27. What does the story mainly tell us?A. A man owes his success to his family support.B. A winner is one with a great effort of will.C. Failure is the mother of success.D. One is never too old to learn.CLast week the British university system offered a record number of places. That sounds like good news—but do we really need more people to go to university? For that matter, does the world need more universities?The answer feels like it should be yes.Education is good, is it not? But everything has a cost.Education takes time. We could insist that everyone study full-time until the age of 45 but that would surely be too much. And perhaps half the population studying until they’r e 21 is also too much. As for universities, they consume financial and intellectual resources—perhaps those resources might be better spent elsewhere.My own personal opinion is strongly in favor both of going to university, and of simply having universities around.The main skill I learnt at university was to write about economics, and I use that skill every day of my professional life, even an abstract education seems practical to me. And I now live in Oxford, one of the world’s most celebrated (著名的) university cities. Oxford’s experience certainly suggests that universities have much to offer.The city’s architecture and green spaces have been shaped—greatly for the better, on balance —by the 900-year-old institution at its heart. The beauty attracts tourists and locals too.But these are samples of one. Many people do not find themselves using the skills and knowledge they accumulated at university. And Oxford’s dreaming spires (尖顶) aren’t terribly representative of global universities as a whole.28. Which of the following is the most proper title?A. Does the world need more universities?B. Is education really necessary?C. Is British university system the best?D. Do you prefer universities abroad?29. Which of the following about the writer is TRUE?A. He is an economist now.B. He likes Oxford’s architecture and green spaces most.C. The skill he learnt at university is practical in his career.D. He holds the view that going to univeristy is a waste of resources.30. The writer develops the passage by ______.A. comparing his experience with others’B. persuading us with his own experience and opinionC. describing and sharing his own university experienceD. informing us of the advantages of universities31. In the following part, the writer is likely to ______.A. list more supporting details about his opinionB. show more disadvantages about going to universitiesC. present some opposite opinions about universitiesD. draw a conclusion about the topicDMore than 10 million Chinese cultural relics have been lost overseas, most of which were stolen and illegally shipped out of China during the times of war before 1949. About 1. 67 million pieces are housed in more than 200 museums in 47 countries, which accounts for 10 percent of all lost Chinese cultural relics, and the rest are in the hands of private collectors.Most of these treasures are owned by museums or private collectors in the United States, Europe, Japan and Southeast Asian countries. There are more than 23,000 pieces in the British Museum, most of which were stolen or bought for pennies more than 100 years ago.The major method to recover these national treasures was to buy them back. In some cases, private collectors donated the relics to the government. Also the government can turn to official channels(渠道) to demand the return of relics.In 2003, a priceless bronze pig's head dating from the Qing Dynasty was returned to its home in Beijing after it was removed by the Anglo-French Allied Army over 140 years ago. Macao entrepreneur(企业家) Stanley Ho donated 6 million yuan to buy it back from a US art collector and then donated it to the Poly Art Museum in Beijing.Although buying-back is the most feasible way to recover the lost treasures, limited funding is always a big headache.In recent years, the Chinese government has improved efforts to recover the precious cultural relics lost overseas. It has started a national project on the recovery of the treasures and has set up a database(数据库) collecting relevantinformation. It has signed several international agreements with many countries onthis matter, and is also looking for international cooperation to recover the relics by working closely with several international organizations.32. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to recover cultural relics.B. The efforts to recover Chinese cultural relics.C. Stanley Ho donated a bronze pig's head to Beijing.D. Chinese cultural relics were stolen by the Anglo-French Allied Army.33. Most of lost Chinese cultural relics .A. have been recovered by the Chinese governmentB. were bought for little money by foreignersC. are owned by private collectorsD. are housed in foreign museums34. Which of the following statements about the bronze pig's head is NOT true?A. It was made in the Qing Dynasty.B. It is now in the Poly Art Museum in Beijing.C. It was donated by the French government to China.D. It was removed by the Anglo-French Allied Army over 140 years ago.35. The underlined word "feasible" in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by " ".A. possibleB. difficultC. popularD. careful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。

I'm just checking my answers, not copying, We must be honest about our actions, and____45____ excuses. If we fool ourselves into believing we,re not doing anything wrong, we can'tsee the real choice we're making--and that leads to bad decisions.To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask how you would feel if.your actions were public, and anyone could be watching over your shoulder.

Sometimes these interactions pass by virtually___47___ like when you find yourself forced to buy the newest cell phone but suddenly stop and ask yourself, Do I even need this thing? and then realize that the latest ad campaign has____48___ you of something without you really knowing it. Sometimes these interactions with others are obvious and deeply felt, like when an emotional argument__49___over why your father won’t quit smoking even though his health is __50____---you only see your desire for him to be OK, he only sees his independence, Then there are those times when these sorts of ___51__-feel delighted. like when you voice your opinion, as you do every year at the Thanksgiving table, about some political issue, and finally- after years of trying-see the ___52___ of hmm, you may be right' on your uncle's face.Advertising, media, novels and even the people you love often aim to___53___ our opinions.

The family lost touch and as the decades passed only a single letter gave a clue to where she might be The clue was enough for a WHT reader to recognize Margery and put the family back in touch.John, 67, said he had been searching for a long time and a friend suggested his writing to the paper.“That's what made it, the letter to the paper was written back a few months ago, he said.” it's as if a dream came true.

It covers almost every aspect of millennials’ experiences on their path toward adolescence - their struggles with schoolwork, their relationship with peers, their confusion if a younger brother or sister is born into the family, and their growing desire to keep a distance from their parents. But this five-episode series was different from any other TV program with a similar theme.Post-00s was film over a period of 10 years, during which the show's makers followed a group of kids from when they were infants through to when they became teenagers. In other words, the show's "character" grow older for real, and their stories are all real."Coming-of-age" stories, as they're known, have special appeal. They satisfy our curiosity of looking at someone else' life, and we become more and more attached to the characters as if we truly know them. And while we enjoy the truthfulness of the stories because nothing is set in advance, we also cannot help but feel the cruelty of reality. After all, there's no re-writing of the script (副本) and there's no turning back - this is real life.12 / 17This realness can also be seen in Boyhood. a 2014 film that won the Silver Bear award for best director at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival. During a period of 12 years, the film follows the life of Mason Jr. played by US actor Ellar Coltrane - from when he was 6 to when he finished high school.One of Boyhood's appeals comes from its "ordinariness". Mason Jr. isn't some child genius....He is a quietly spoken, fairly typical American boy, growing up in the Texas suburbs.He likes riding his bike and playing video games.While coming-of-age stories may look ordinary on the outside, they often allow us to look underneath the surface and see something extraordinary— the power of life itself.69. In the documentary, we see post-00's growing experience EXCEPT .A. how they deal with their studies.B. how they help look after brothers or sisters.C. how they get along with people of their ageD. how much they long to be independent of their parents70. What do Post-00 and Boyhood have in common?A. They're intended to win an award for best director.B. The heroes and heroines are characters themselves.C.

Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. Our baby was not doing well, so Effie financed my wife's trip to New York for consultation with a specialistB.

"Pay me whenever you like," said Effie, climbing back into her truck.AC. "Don't give it to me all at once," she said.14 / 17“Any apples today?” Effie asked cheerfully at my window. I followed her to her truck and bought a kilo. On credit, of course. Cash was the one thing in the world I lacked just then 73 .All pretense(借口) of payment was dropped when our funds, food and fuel decreased to alarming lows. Effie came often, always bringing some gift: a jar of peaches or some firewood There were other generosities. 74 Effie was not a rich woman. Her income, derived from investments she had made while running an interior decorating shop, had never exceeded $200 a month, which she supplemented by selling her apples. But she always managed to help someone poorer.Years passed before I was able to return the money Effie had given me from time to time. She was ill now and had aged rapidly in the last year. "Here, daring," I said, "is what I owe(欠) you", 75 "Give it back as I gave it to you - a little at a time.” I think she believed there was magic in the slow discharge of a love debt.The simple fact is that I never repaid the whole amount to Effie, for she died a few weeks late. By now, the few dollars Effie gave me have been multiplied many times. But curious thing began to happen.Whenever I saw a fellow human in financial trouble, I was moved to help him. I can't afford to do this always, but in the ten years since Effie’s death, I have indirectly repaid my debt to her.76 At that time, it seemed that my debt would forever go unsettled. So the account can be marked closed, for Effie’s love will go on in hearts that have never known her.第II 卷(21%)IV.

Rarely do they expect to find a dead grasshopper.Conservators at the Nelson-Atkins museum of art in Kansas City said they discovered thedead insect in one of its star paintings, Vincent van Gogh’s Olive Trees, when it (77)_______(scan) as part of the research for a catalogue of its French painting collection.It was spotted by Mary Schafer. She told a local broadcaster that she found it in the work’s lower foreground. Looking at the painting with the microscope ,I came across the tiny body of a grasshopper covered in the paint, so it must have occurred in the wet paint back in 1889.“We can connect it to Van Gogh painting outside, so we think of him battling the elements, dealing with the wind, the bugs, and then he’s got to walk back to his studio through the fields. What’s fun is that we can come up with all these stories for (78)_______ the insect landed in the paint.”Schafer said they were curious to know if the grasshopper could be studied further to possibly identify (79) season Van Gogh painted Olive Trees.Michael Engel, a professor at the University of Kansas, was approached to examine the grasshopper further. He discovered that part of the insect’s body was missing and there was no sign (80) movement in the surrounding paint.
