Grammar and vocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. 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 biggest house of cards, the longest tongue, and of course, the tallest man: these areamong the thousands of records logged in the famous Guinness Book of Records. Created in 1955 after a debate ___21___ (concern) Europe's fastest game bird, ___22___ began as a marketing tool sold to pub landlords ___23___ (promote) Guinness, an Irish drink, became the bestselling copyright title of all time (a category that excludes books such as the Bible and the Koran). In time, the book would sell 120 million copies in over 100 countries— quite a leap from its humble beginnings.In its early years, the book set its sights on ___24___ (satisfy) man's inborn curiosity about the natural world around him. Its two principal fact finders, twins Norris and Ross McWhirter, moved wildly around the globe to collect facts. It was their task to find and document aspects of life that can be sensed or observed, things that can be quantified or measured. But not just any things. They were only interested in superlatives: the biggest and the best. It was during this period ___25___ some of the remarkable Guinness Records were documented, answering such questions as "What is the brightest star?" and "What is the biggest spider?"Once aware of the public's thirst for such knowledge, the book's authors began to branch out to cover increasingly doubtful, little-known facts. They started documenting human achievements as well. A forerunner for reality television, the Guinness Book gave people ___26___ chance to become famous for accomplishing odd, often pointless tasks. Records were set in 1955 for consuming 24 raw eggs in 14 minutes and in 1981 for the fastest solving of a Rubik's Cube (which took a mere 38 seconds). In 1979 a man yodeled(用真假嗓音交替唱) non-stop for ten and a quarter hours.In its latest appearance, the book has found a new home on the internet. No longer ___27___ (restrict) to the limits of physical paper, the Guinness World Records website contains seemingly innumerable facts concerning such topics as the most powerful combustion(燃烧) engine, or the world's longest train. What is striking, however, is that such facts are found sharing a page with the record of the heaviest train to be pulled ___28___ a beard.Originating as a simple bar book, the Guinness Book of Records ___29___ (evolve) over decades to provide insight into the full range of modern life. And although one may be ___30___ (likely) now to learn about the widest human mouth than the highest number of casualties in a single battle of the Civil War, the Guinness World Records website offers a telling glimpse into the future of fact-finding and record-recording.【答案】21. concerning22. what 23. to promote24. satisfying25. that 26. a27. restricted28. with 29. has evolved30. more likelySection BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Like many people acting on the desire to eat healthy and local, Acropolis resident Eduardo Jimenez decided to plant a garden in his backyard. He ploughed the soil, he planted the seeds, and he even set up a fence to keep out the deer. Eduardo did everything right. Or so it seems. However, when ___31___ time has come, he has not one tomato, bean, or leaf of lettuce to show for his hard work. How did this happen? The answer comes in the form of a small, brown, particularly smelly insect: the stink bug.Unlike their picky cousins, stink bugs feed on some 300 species of plants, including figs, blueberries, corn, and kiwi fruits as well as soybeans, peas, and weeds. Although they do little damage to the plant itself, they make the fruits and vegetables ___32___. For this reason, stink bugs pose the most serious threat to the big agriculturalists and macro farm operators. Macro farmers have more ___33___ in their produce, and therefore have more to lose. While hobbyists like Eduardo are left to face the disappointment of an unsuccessful garden, macro farmers are forced to live with the loss of entire tracts of cash crops—a fact that has left many ___34___ able to clothe their children or put food on the table.Last season alone, several New Jersey pepper farmers saw 75% of their crops damaged. Pennsylvania lost half of its peach population, and, according to the US Apple Association, apple farmers in the mid-Atlantic states lost $37 million. This year could be worse. As a result of this ___35___ in the supply of fresh fruits and vegetables, shoppers have seen ___36___—sometimes quite dramatic—in prices at the grocery store. Prices of apples in Maryland are up 8%. In the north-Atlantic states, prices for peppers shot up an astonishing 14%. Not only are these items becoming more expensive, but they are also getting harder to find. Last week, Marge Jenkins ofAthens, Georgia reported having to check three different stores before encountering a decent batch of peas. And this, she assures us, is a regular ___37___. Accidentally brought from Asia, the stink bug has no natural ___38___ in America, and thus its population is rising sharply. Reported sightings of stink bugs are becoming increasingly numerous, as the dried, brown, trapezoidal(不规则四边形) shells of the dead bugs are everywhere in some areas. This has farmers and scientists alike ___39___ their heads in search of a remedy. Hope, they believe, may lie with an Asian parasitic wasp(黄蜂), which helpfully lays its eggs inside stink bug eggs.The larvae(幼虫) of the wasp consume the stink bug from the inside. But the ___40___ of such a solution is still several years away, as scientists must first determine if it is safe for the wasp to be introduced into America. Until then, some farmers are resorting to homemade traps. Others have even contemplated the use of peacocks and praying mantises, which, they imagine, will gulp down the little stinkers.【答案】31. D 32.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Students in Caldwell, Idaho, can attend class in their pajamas(睡衣)! At Vallivue Virtual Academy, courses are taught online. Students work at home with parents, who serve as learning coaches. A certified teacher ___41___ the students’ progress.The cyber school was ___42___ as a free option for students in kindergarten through grade 8 who have trouble succeeding in the district’s ___43___ public school. Supporters of the program say that virtual schools help students avoid the social pressures that can ___44___ with learning. In addition, supporters argue, online courses provide kids with more focused ___45___ and course options than they can get in a typical school.Not everyone gives cyber schools a passing grade, however. Some educators argue that online learning makes it hard for students to make friends. Many parents also feel that cyber schoolsput ___46___ time demands on them because they have to oversee their kids’ daily work.Technology can benefit education, but it shouldn’t ___47___ education. Students who go to virtual schools will miss many of the benefits of being in a real school.If kids attend school online, they will miss out on important social ___48___. Payton Mcdonough, 13, a seventh grader from Glencoe, Ill., agrees. “I don’t know how I could sit at a computer all day without ___49___ interacting with my peers and teachers,” he says.In addition, virtual schools don’t have enough structure. Students who take online courses can set their own schedules, which will cause problems for students who have trouble staying ___50___.Furthermore, online schooling puts stress on parents because they have to ___51___ what their kids do at home. Many parents have full–time jobs. How are they going to run their children’s education, ___52___ in their jobs, and take care of their other responsibilities at home?Virtual schools will make it harder for students to learn and will put too much pressure on parents.Virtual learning does not need to replace classroom learning ___53___, but it can help students work at their own pace. If students struggle with subjects, they can take those courses online and spend more time on them. Virtual schools can also offer students much more ___54___ schedules. Students often handle extracurricular activities, sports, and schoolwork, and cyber schools could help them manage everything.Finally, attending virtual school can prepare students for college and for work after___55___. “We need to be responsible for working on our own,” says Angela Goscilo, a senior from Pound Ridge, N.Y. “We need to develop technology skills that will help us in whatever we do. Getting an early start is a good idea.”41. A. oversees B. suspected C. admitted D. predicted42. A. tolerated B. launched C. undergone D. transformed43.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.ABeing able to land safely is a critically important skill for all flying animals. Whereas terrestrial animals face no particular challenge when they need to stop running or crawling, flying animals move at much higher speeds, and they must be careful about how they land. Hitting the ground, or even water, at full flight speed would be quite dangerous. Before touching down, they must decrease their speed in order to land safely. Both bats and birds have mastered the skillof landing, but these two types of flyers go about it quite differently.In the past it was believed that, in terms of flying mechanics, there was little difference between bats and birds. This belief was based only on assumption, however, because for years nobody had actually studied in detail how bats move their wings. In recent years, though, researchers have discovered a number of interesting facts about bat flight. Bats are built differently from birds, and their wings incorporate(结合) both their front and hind limbs (后肢). This makes their limbs working together more difficult for bats and, as a result, they are not very good at flying over longer distances. However, a bat can quickly change its direction of flight or completely reverse it, something a bird cannot easily do.Another interesting characteristic of bat flight is the way in which bats land—upside down! Unlike birds, which touch down on the ground or on tree branches, bats can be observed flying around and then suddenly hanging upside down from an object overhead. How do they do it? A group of researchers recently used video cameras to film bats landing on nets suspended from the ceiling of their laboratory and studied the recordings in slow motion. They pain ted spots on the bats’ wings to see in detail what happens to the wings in flight and during touchdown. It turns out that the bats flew in a straight line up to the net and then quickly flipped over and attached themselves to it upside down. One disadvantage to this landing routine is that the bats often slam into their landing spot with some force, which probably causes pain. However, not all bats hit their landing spots with the same speed and force; these will vary depending on the area where a bat species makes its home. For example, a cave bat, which regularly rests on a hard stone ceiling, is more careful about its landing preparation than a bat more accustomed to landing in leafy treetops.56. In line 1, the word terrestrial is closest in meaning to _______.A. high-flyingB. fast-movingC. tree-climbingD. ground-living57. According to the passage, what skill is crucial for flying animals?A. Diving underwater.B. Slowing down to land.C. Flying over great distances.D. Balancing on high branches.58. According to the passage, what is an advantage that bats have over birds?A. Bats can land on a greater variety of surfaces.B. Bats can turn in the air more quickly.C. Bats can eat while flying.D. Bats are lighter59. What is the main topic of the passage?A. Places where flying animals choose to land.B. Why scientists have difficulty observing bats.C. Differences in the eating habits of bats and birds.D. Ways in which bats move differently from birds.【答案】56. D 57. B 58. B 59. D B Milton Hershey was born near the small village of Derry Church, Pennsylvania, in 1857. Heonly attended school through the fourth grade; at that point, he was apprenticed(做学徒) to a printer in a nearby town. After a while, he left the printing business and was apprenticed to a Lancaster, Pennsylvania candy maker. And at the age of eighteen, he opened his own candy store in Philadelphia. In spite of his talents as a candy maker, the shop failed after six years.After the failure of his Philadelphia store, Milton headed for Denver, where he learned the art of making caramels(焦糖). Then in Denver, Milton once again attempted to open his own candy-making businesses, in Chicago, New Orleans, and New York City. Finally, in 1886, he went to Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where he raised the money necessary to try again. This company—the Lancaster Caramel Company—established Milton’s reputation as a master candy maker.In 1893, Milton attended the Chicago International Exposition, where he saw a display of German chocolate-making implements. Fascinated by the equipment, he purchased it for his Lancaster candy factory and began producing chocolate, which he used for coating his caramels. By the next year, production had grown to include cocoa, sweet chocolate, and baking chocolate. The Hershey Chocolate company was born in 1894 as a subsidiary(子公司) of the Lancaster Caramel Company. Six years later, Milton sold the caramel company, but reserved the rights, and the equipment, to make chocolate. He believed that a large market of chocolate consumers was waiting for someone to produce reasonably priced candy. He was right.Milton Hershey returned to the village where he had been born, in the heart of dairy country, and opened his chocolate manufacturing plant. With access to all the fresh milk he needed, he began producing the finest milk chocolate. The plant that opened in a small Pennsylvania village in 1905 is today the largest chocolate factory in the world. The sweets created at this facility are favorites around the world.The area where the factory is located is now known as Hershey, Pennsylvania. Within the first decades of its existence, the town of Hershey thrived, as did the chocolate business. A bank,a school, churches, a department store, even a park and a trolley system all appeared in short order; the town soon even had a zoo. Today, a visit to the area reveals the Hershey Medical Center, Milton Hershey School, and Hershey’s Chocolate World—a theme park where visitors are greeted by a giant Reeses Peanut Butter Cup. All of these things— and a huge number of happy chocolate lovers—were made possible because a caramel maker visited the Chicago Exposition of 1893!60. The mention of the 1893 Exposition indicates that _______A. the exposition in Chicago is held once every three years.B. the theme of the exposition of 1893 was “Food from Around the World.”C. the exposition contained displays from a variety of countries.D. the site of the exposition is now a branch of the Hershey Chocolate Company.61. According to the passage, Milton Hershey sold his caramel company in _______A. 1894.B. 1900.C. 1904.D. 1905.62. What can you infer from the passage?A. Chocolate is popular in every country in the world.B. Reeses Peanut Butter Cups are manufactured by the Hershey Chocolate Company.C. Chocolate had never been manufactured in the United States before Milton Hershey did it.D. The Hershey Chocolate Company now makes more money from Hershey’s Chocolate World than from the manufacture and sale of chocolate.63. The author wrote this passage mainly to _______A. recount the founding of the Hershey Chocolate Company.B. describe the process of manufacturing chocolate.C. compare the popularity of chocolate to other candies.D. explain how apprenticeships work. 【答案】60. C 61. B 62. B 63. A C Like their ancient toga-wearing counterparts, modern philosophers continue to disagree onthe nature of freewill. Do we really have any control over the choices we make and the things we desire, and if so, to what degree?Theories of freewill vary, but the ancient words of Plato still line up with our modern perceptions(概念) of temptation and willpower. The respected Greek philosopher argued that thehuman experience is one of constant struggle between the intellect and the body, between rationality and desire. Along these lines, true freedom is only achievable when willpower unchains us from bodily, emotional, instinctual slavery.You can find similar thoughts throughout world religions, most of which offer a particular and often difficult path to rise above our darker natures.And science? Well, science mostly agrees with all of this. Willpower is all about overcoming your natural desires to eat cupcakes, skip your morning workout, play games on mobile phone, hit the snooze alarm and check your e-mail during a funeral.Your willpower, however, is limited. If life were a video game, you'd see a glowing "willpower" or "ego"(自我) meter at the top of the screen next to your "life" meter. Successfully resist one temptation, and the meter drains a little. The next temptation drains the "willpower" meter even more, until there's nothing left at all.Our modern scientific understanding of willpower in large part stems from a 1996 research experiment involving chocolate and radishes(小红萝卜). Psychologist Roy Baumeister led a study in which 67 test subjects were presented with tempting chocolate chip cookies and other chocolate-flavored treats before a persistence-testing puzzle. Here's the catch: The researchers asked some of the participants to withdraw from sweets and snack on radishes instead.Baumeister's results told a fascinating story. The test subjects who resisted the sweet stuff in favor of radishes performed poorly on the persistence test. They simply didn't have the willpower left to resist slacking off(松懈).The research inspired more than a thousand additional studies discussing everything from the influence of positive messages to the ego-sapping power of daily decisions Studies also show that cognitive capacity also affects our ability to hold out against temptation. Cognitive capacity is essentially your working memory, which you employ when resisting a temptation or holding a string of numbers in your head. A 1999 study from the University of Iowa professor Baba Shiv found that people tasked with remembering a two-digit number held out better than people remembering a seven-digit number when tempted with chocolate cake.64. What do you understand by ‘freewill’?A. The control we have over the choices.B. The choices we make and the things we desireC. The choices that philosophers force us to makeD. Our perception of temptation.65. According to Plato, when is true freedom available?A. When there is a struggle between the intellect and the bodyB. When our willpower helps us to overcome our basic instinctsC. When we desire that which we cannot achieveD. When we have no control over our ego66. What is meant by ‘cognitive capacity’?A. Willpower to realize one’s own ego.B. Our ability to overcome temptationC. Our ability to remember things.D. The desire to give in to temptation【答案】64. A 65. B 66.

Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Many people know that trash is a big problem on planet Earth. What many people don’t know is that trash has become a problem in outer space too. _________67_________ Statistically, there are more than 22,000 pieces of junk in space around the earth. And these are just the items that we can see from the surface of the earth by telescopes or radars. ____68____ Objects, like bits of old space rockets or satellites, move around the planet at very high speeds, so fast that even a very small piece can break important satellites or become dangerous to people, particularly astronauts. If the tiniest piece of junk crashed into a spacecraft, it could damage the vehicle. That’s because the faster an object moves, the greater the impact if the object collides with something else.To help minimize additional space junk, countries around the world have agreed to limit the time their space tools stay in orbit to 25 years. Each tool must be built to fall safely into the earth’s atmosphere, or the mass of gases t hat surround the earth, after that._________69_________Many scientists are also proposing different ways to clean up space junk. The Germans have been planning a space mission with robots that would collect pieces of space trash and bring them back to Earth so that they can be safely destroyed."In our opinion the problem is very challenging, and it's quite urgent as well," said Marco Castronuovo, an Italian Space Agency researcher who is working to solve the problem.____________70____________ Many of these objects are tools that help people use their cell phones or computers."The time to act is now; as we go farther in time we will need to remove more and more fragments," he says.A. One reason that it’s urgent is that countries are sending more and m ore objects into space.B. There are also millions of smaller pieces of junk that we can’t see.C. Blowing up older satellites with a missile may create thousands of smaller pieces!D. In the upper parts of the atmosphere, it will burn up.E. When two objects in space collide, the two objects break into many smaller pieces.F. Years of space exploration have left tons of “space junk” in orbit around the planet.【答案】67. F 68. B69. D 70. AIV. Summary Writing71.Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Should some books be banned from school libraries?Are there Harry Potter books in your school library? Many kids all over the world are reading J. K. Rowling's books in school. But some parents think their children shouldn't be able to find those and other books in school libraries. Should school libraries keep books that some parents don't approve of? Should they take those books off the shelves? All over the country, schools are wrestling with those questions.It’s true that some hold their argument that some books should be banned from school libraries! "We need certain limits," said one student in Denver, Colorado. He said some books have no place in school libraries. Many people believe that books that contain violence or bad words shouldn't be in schools. Some people want the Harry Potter books removed because they contain talk about wizards and magic.Most parents know what's good for kids. They have a right to decide which books should or should not be in school libraries.Books should meet certain standards before they are put in schools. Is this a good book for kids to read? Is it full of violence? Does it contain bad words or ideas kids shouldn't learn about? If a book is not good for all kids, it should not be in a school library. Most parents。

上海市2019年初三下学期中考英语二模汇编：阅读回答问题(含答案)
上海市2019年中考英语二模之阅读回答问题宝山They exist in every school. Some use words, and others use physical violence (暴力）.No matter what the methods are, the result is the same: bullies make you feel bad and make going to school a lot more difficult. What can you do about them? Luckily, dealing with bullies is not as hard as you think. Just follow these simple steps, and there is a good chance you will survive the bullies at your school without getting hurt.The first step to take when dealing with bullies is to understand them. Most bullies make others feel bad so they feel better about themselves. Their main goal is to make you upset so they feel in control. The best way to deal with this is to avoid them all together. Don't walk near them, change your seat in class, or if they come up to you, walk away. If you can successfully ignore(对…不予理踩）a bully for a few days, you will probably be left alone.When it is impossible to ignore the bully, you will have to take further steps. Bullies prefer to target kids who they think are weak and vulnerable. The next time you see a bully, pretend to feel very brave and confident. If the bully says something to yo u, say “Stop it! "in a strong voice and walk away. If you see a bully picking on someone else, do the same. Bullies normally do not like confrontation(对抗).If they still pick on you, the next step is to report the bully to a teacher. Bullies have been around for a long time, so experienced teachers will know how to deal with them. The bully will get into trouble and the teacher will get ready to be on watch all the time.Bullies can give you big trouble. However, if you act quickly, you can almost always keep them from bothering(烦扰）you. Just remember to never get in a fight with a bully. Fighting will almost always make the situation worse. Be smart when dealing with bullies and you should survive without getting hurt!88. Is there a good chance to survive the bullies if you follow the simple steps?89. What is the main goal of the bullies?90. Why do we need to pretend to be brave and confident?91. What is the next step if the bullies still pick on you?92. What will make the situation worse when dealing with bullies?93. Are there any bullies at your school? What will you do if you meet with a bully?崇明It was a Friday morning. I felt too lazy to drive my car, so I called a taxi. The taxi arrived at my door at 6:00 a.m. and I got into it. I was so busy looking for something in my bag that I didn’t pay any attention to the driver. I just said, “Please go right now! I’m in a hurry!”A voice replied, “Yes, madam!”I was surprised when I heard a female voice. I stopped what I was doing for a second and looked at the driver. The driver was a young lady of about thirty. It was my first time seeing a young lady driving a t axi!”The car was running smoothly towards my destination. It was quite a distance from my home. The driver was driving perfectly well. I had travelled in taxi many times, but I had never seen a young lady driver! I was curious about the reason why she had chosen this job, so I started aconversation, “If you don’t mind, can I ask you some questions?”“Yes, madam, no problem.”“I guess you are well-educated.”“Yes, madam, I have completed my education. I have done my MBA courses.”“Oh, wow! Why did you ch oose this job then, instead of going for a business or financial career?”I should see her face in the rear view mirror（后视镜）. She smiled and expressed her opinion.I was really amazed.Very politely, she said, “I have been enthusiastic（感兴趣的）about driving since I was a child.I have fulfilled my childhood dream. I do respect each and every job. I don’t mind whether a job is good or bad in other people’s eyes. I want a job where I can get satisfaction. I received offers from big companies but I preferred thi s one because I like it. Although I can’t earn much money from this job, I love driving! That’s it!”88. When did the taxi arrive at the writer’s home that morning?89. At first, the writer didn’t notice that the taxi driver was a woman, did she?90. Why did the write start a conversation with the taxi driver?91. What information did the writer get about the young lady driver’s education?92. Why did the lady driver refuse job offers from big companies?93. What have you learned from this story?奉贤Many of the world’s successful people were once failures. Here are the stories of a few of them.Michael Jordan (born 1963) is one of the greatest basketball players of all time. However, he himself admits that it hasn’t been easy. In a famous advertisement for Nike, he says, “I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted（委托）to take the game winning shot, and I missed. I have failed over and over again in my life. And that is why I succ eed.”Albert Einstein (1879-1955) won the Nobel Prize in physics in 1921. However, he wasn’t always considered a “genius”. He didn’t speak until he was four, and couldn’t read until he was seven. His teachers and parents thought he was slow, and he was expelled （开除）from school. He later famously said, “Success is failure in progress”Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) was one of America’s greatest leaders, taking the country through the Civil War （美国南北战争）. However, his life was never easy. He started numerous business that failed, he went bankrupt（破产）twice and was defeated in 26 campaigns（竞选）for public office. He later said, “My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.”J.K. Rowling (born 1965) is the author of the hugely successful Harry Potter books, and one of the richest women in the world. But before publishing the books, she was penniless, depressed and trying to raise a child on her own. In a speech at Harvard in 2008, she said, “I had failed so greatly. After a short-lived marriage, I was jobless, a lone parent, and as poor as it is possible to be in modern Britain, without being homeless. The fears that my parents had had for me, and that I had had for myself, had both come to pass, and by every usual standard, I was the biggest failure Iknew.”So you see, just keep going!88. How many times has Michael Jordan missed the game winning shot?89. What happened to Albert Einstein in 1921?90. Which did Abraham Lincoln care more about, whether he failed or how to face with his failure?91. J.K. Rowling is one of the richest women in Britain, isn’t she?92. What was J.K. Rowling’s life like before Harry Potter Books were published?93. What do you think of failure? How do you overcome failure in your life? (Please give an example to explain)黄浦My mother often asked me, “What is the most important part of the body?” Through the years I would guess at what I thought was the correct answer.When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as huma ns, so I said, “My ears, Mommy.”She said. “No. Many people are deaf. But try to use your head and I will ask you again soon.”Then last year, my grandma died. Everybody was hurt. Everybody was crying. My mum looked at me when it was our turn to say our f inal goodbye to Grandpa. She asked me, “Do you know the most important body part yet, my dear?“I was surprised when she asked me this now. I always thought this was a game between her and me. She saw the conclusion on my face and told me, “This questions is very important. It shows that you have really lived your life.” I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, “My dear, the most important body part is your shoulder(肩膀)。

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)“Just relax,” I said, “and let the water support you!”Of course, such things are usually easier said than done.When I discovered that the university I work at has a swimming pool,I was quite pleased. Swimming is a great way to exercise. So I suggested toEllen that we should go for a dip. She declined. At first, I thought it wasbecause she thought it might be too cold to go swimming, but as thesummer heat rolled in, she continued to resist my offers.Eventually, I asked her what was stopping her, and was surprised to hear, “I can't swim!”Most Australians learn to swim fairly early on, with school programs teaching it. With the population of Australia mostly gathered around the edge of the continent, going to the beach and swimming in the sea are incredibly popular things to do, so someone who can’t swim is fairly uncommon.Ellen’s confession drove me to make a foolish offer — that I would teach her to swim.If I’d foreseen the problems that were to come, I would probably have never set foot in the pool.Once we got past the initial hurdle of the water being “too cold”, “too scary” and having “a funny smell”, I persuaded Ellen to put her arms around my neck, and try to let her legs float out behind her, while I gently pulled her along.That night, I tried to sleep w ithout moving my neck, as Ellen’s tight grasp had almost torn my head from my shoulders. Shepanicked after a small wave splashed some water up her nose, and nearly drowned the pair of us in the resulting waving of arms and legs.I think it was at that point I decided to buy her a large life ring, so that she could float along without holding me tight. And I hope, in that way, Ellen will be a little more confident in the water.65. Ellen refused to go swimming with her husband because ______.A. it was too cold at that timeB. there was no swimming pool aroundC. she couldn’t stand the summer heatD. she did not know how to swim66. Which of the following CANNOT be learned according to the passage?A. Swimming is a required course in many Australian schools.B. Most of the Australians learn to swim at a fairly early age.C. It is convenient for most Australians to go to the seaside.D. Swimming is the most popular activity among Australians.67. The underlined word “hurdle” in the passage probably means ________.A. frameB. excitementC. obstacleD. jump68. How did the author probably feel after teaching his wife to swim for the first time?A. Surprised and tired.B. Exhausted and regretful.C. Energetic and confident.D. Disappointed and angry.(B)The following articles are extracts from editorials.WORKING HOURSThe proc ess of “downsizing”─ in other words, reducing workforces ─ has continued persistently over the last ten years. One of the major effects of this process has been the increase in number of hours worked. Often employees have to take over the work previously done by now redundant（被解雇的）colleagues. Working days of twelve hours or more are not unusual. You have to ask yourselves whether this is an efficient way to run a company, and if it is worth the damage it causes to family life.TOWN CENTRES DIEArguably on e of America’s most destructive exports to the rest of the world has been the out-of-town shopping mall. Shopping centres, usually located on ring roads two or three kilometers from the centre of towns, have sprung up everywhere. As consumers have flocked to them, village shops have closed and town centres have become full of streets with boarded-upshop windows and “For Sale” signs.PROFESSIONALISM RULESThere are few sports where the amateur ideal survives and flourishes. Athletics is normally amateur but all the top athletes are, to all intent and purposes, professionals. Rugby Union(英式橄榄球联合会) has now officially gone professional and the Olympic Games, the supposed symbol of amateurism, has allowed professional sportsmen like tennis players to compete. Standards have certainly improved, but at what cost? Sport is now seen by many as an activity for a few highly skilled and well-paid individuals, rather than as a source of enjoyment for millions, whatever their ability.69. According to the passages, reducing workforces may result in ______.A. the enhancement of work efficiencyB. the increase of employees’ workloadC. better chances of promotionD. the cutdown of employees’ income70. According to the passages, the Olympic Games should ______.A. include more highly skilled and well-paid individualsB. choose rugby when considering the addition of new sportsC. aim at providing more enjoyment for ordinary peopleD. improve their standards of candidates at any cost71. What is in common among these three articles?A. They all quote exact figures to illustrate their points.B. Each of them expresses a strong opinion about a current issue.C. Each of them reflects a different voice about the same problem.D. They all offer constructive suggestions to the authority.(C)One often hears that children should arrive at school “ready to learn.” For most children, the acquisition of reading and math skills starts in the first grade. In states where kindergarten is compulsory, it begins even earlier.Many parents, teachers, and politicians maintain that preschool is the best way to prepare children to learn. There is no real consensus(⼀致), however, about how this preparation should be achieved.For some, early childhood education relates to the development of the whole child. They think that preschool should encourage exploration and discovery. Group activities teach positive social behaviors such as sharing, kindness, and patience. Time spent alone encourages independence. Learning letters and counting is important only for children who show an interest in them. Advocates（提倡者）of this approach stress that each child is unique and should learn at his or her own pace.Other people refer to research showing that children are ready to absorb basic academic concepts by age 3 or 4. They claim that early introduction to letters and numbers lays the foundation for later academic excellence. Since the 1980s, many people have stressed the value of preschool and point to the success of programs －such as Head Start －that target low-income children.Is there proof that an academic curriculum in preschool will lead to academic success? Studies have not been conclusive. In the short term, evidence suggests that middle-class childrenwho attend preschool are ahead of their peers in maths and language skills, as well as in social skills, when they enter school. However, the same studies show that the gap narrows considerably by the time children reach age 8.Children living in poverty are a different matter. Those enrolled in programs such as Head Start seem to do better than impoverished(穷困的) children who do not attend a preschool. For instance, youngsters in one group enrolled in the program, tracked until the age of 21, earned higher scores on intelligence tests, were more likely to graduate from high school, and demonstrated more interest in higher education.The idea of public preschool raises many issues. Providing Head Start for all children would be a financial burden on communities that already struggle to fund current school programs. Also, where would a sufficient number of teachers trainedin early childhood development be found?72. Advocates of the development of the whole child believe school readiness is _______.A.showing eagerness in exploration and discoveryB.learning basic skills, such as knowing letters and countingC.Showing great interest in basic academic conceptsD.demonstration of intellectual, social and emotional skills73. According to the passage, Head Start is most probably _________.A. a preschool program that supports disabled childrenB. a program that helps impoverished children attend a schoolC.an organization that aims to improve current school programsD. a program that helps design the academic curriculum in preschool74. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Preschool benefits middle-class children more than poor children.B.Most children start school with similar language and social skills.C.Providing Head Start for all children has encountered great difficulties.D.All children are ready to absorb basic academic concepts by age 3 or 4.75. Which of the following may best summarize the main idea of the passage?A.An academic curriculum in preschool will lead to academic success.B.Preshool is helpful, despite the disagreement about what it should offer.C.Children enrolled in preschool demonstrate more interest in learning.D.Preschool education shouldn’t be a financial burden on communities.Section CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.76.If your work schedule sets your teeth to grinding, make a list of projects you need to get done and front-load it with tasks you can accomplish quickly. As you check off accomplishments, you’ll beginto feel in control,and yourstress will ease. Try scheduling daily chores so that you can attack the most difficult ones when your energy level is highest. And delegate the chores not just 77. A weekend at the beach can restore your equilibrium. Distract yourself with something you find soothing: Cook, knit, or break out the watercolors. And, if you can’t take off for the afternoon when you feel your stress rising at the office, just get out for a walk. Even a short stroll can make 78. networks than men do, and when they’re stressed, they turn to these networks for support. They’re more likely to seek out the company of other women and less likely to flee or to fight. A stress response mitigated by the support of friends might help explain why women live five years longer, on average, than men. So indulge in the pleasure of family and friends. Invite old pals to a women’s night out. Call your sister. It ma y help you live 79. your body’s supply of available energy in fending off an impending threat also tell your brain that you need to replenish that energy once it’s used up. The result: Your cortisol-crazed psyche sends you on the prowl for all-too-fattening pizza, potato chips, and ice cream in an effort to refuel quickly. If you’re going through a stressful period, fight the urge to snack endlessly. Preferably, eat small low-fat meals. And try to exercise regularly. The exercise doesn’t have to be strenuous. Walking releases endorphins that can soothe a jangled mind. 80. Physiologically, relaxation is the opposite of stres s. When you’re relaxed, your breathing and heart rate slow and your mind clears. Mindfulness is a way to achieve this level of relaxation using a variety of techniques, including yoga, meditation, and simple relaxation exercises. It trains you to use your breathing and an awareness of your body to focus on the here and now.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.In the wild, winter is a stressful season, and to escape the biting cold and shortage of food, many animals migrate. But there are some species that stay where they are, and these brave creatures do so by relying on various strategies, including adaptation through external change, such as growing thick coats, and adaptation through behavioral or physiological change, such as entering a state of hibernation (冬眠).Hibernation is a state of inactivity, in which an animal's heart rate, body temperature, andbreathing rate are decreased in order to conserve energy through the cold months of winter. A similar state, known as estivation, occurs in some animals during the hot and dry period in summer.When food is scarce, an animal may use up more energy maintaining its body temperature and in searching for food than it would receive from consuming the food. Hibernating animals use 70 to 100 times less energy than when active, allowing them to survive until food is once again plentiful.Many animals sleep more often when food is scarce, but only a few truly hibernate. Hibernation differs from sleep in that a hibernating animal shows a drastic reduction in metabolism(新陈代谢), and then awakes relatively slowly. By contrast, a sleeping animal decreases its metabolism only slightly, and can wake up almost instantly if disturbed.Bears, which many people think of as the classic hibernating animals, are actually just deep sleepers. They do not significantly lower their metabolism and body temperature. True hibernation occurs only in small mammals and a few birds. Some species of insects show periods of inactivity during which growth and development cease and metabolism is greatly reduced. This state is generally referred to as diapause(滞育), although when correlated with the winter months, it would also fit the definition of hibernation.（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN ELEVEN WORDS.）81. According to the first paragraph, animals rely on different ways to _______.82. What kind of inner changes do animals go through when they enter the state of hibernation?83. According to the passage, the word “estivation” probably refers to _______.84. Why aren’t bears considered true hibernators according to the passage?第⼆卷（45分）I.

Owing a bike was a big deal to our children when they were little. They spent hours and hours, day after day. on their bikes, riding up and down the footpath, and at the front of the house. We also rode together as a family a lot.Bicycling was a great way to get the kids out of the house and into the fresh air without spending any money.Bradley discovered that his bicycle had been stolen from our backyard, when he and his sister went outside for a morning ride. He couldn't believe that someone would do this.He got a large piece of cardboard, painted a sign begging for the bicycle to be returned, and tied the sign to the letterbox. The following morning when I went out to collect the mail, I found a white envelope with the magical words "Buy yourself a new bike”. It was a $100 banknote inside.We were very moved that someone had the heart to do this. We've never been able to thank the person but we think that it may be one of our wonderful neighbors. Bradley painted a big “Thank you” on the s ign and we left it outside for a couple of weeks afterwards in case it was someone who drove down our street.A delighted Bradley was able to buy a new bicycle. As the years went on, bicycles became bigger and more expensive but were still important for those family bicycle riders. Now the kids have grown up and cars have taken the place of their bicycles. Bradley is 25. Sometimes I miss the days when receiving a bicycle was the best thing in the world to them.All these years later, we are still thankful to that amazingly kind stranger who made Bradley 's wish come true.

It seemed that they were planning to build a nest. The next morning, we came home to find a construction had started on the hanging basket, right front of our front door.

In last week's free chat, we asked our readers how they get rid of it during their busiest times.Forget your worries@TinaFor me, the best way to relax is to watch comedy( 喜居lj), which brings lots of flin. After watching and laughing aloud, I forget all my worries!@JaneWhen I'm unhappy or sad I like listening to music and going to bed early. Music has magic that lifts my spirits and getting a good night’s sleep helps me forget my stress. I tell myself: tomorrow will be wonderfulRecharge with exercise@ShawThe first year after I graduated, I worked as a translator, mainly responsible for translating all kinds of materials. I wanted to show not only my boss but also the whole world what I could do.I asked for much more tasks than I could really do, which made me so stressed every single day. I didn't know how to solve my troubles. Thanks to team building exercises we organized every month, I decided to follow my boss and become a marathon runner.@DinerAs an English teacher since 1981, whenever I find myself under pressure, I choose to walk around the campus, listening to the BBC and VOA, which never fails to make me feel better.Keep working under pressure@CleanAs a final-year university student, I am not busy preparing for final exams as I have taken most courses in the first three years.Some may think Pm fortunate, but the truth is that I really miss the busy days gaining knowledge, taking exams, getting good grades, and winning prizes. I believe real happiness comes when one is busy.@ChipsWith winter holidays drawing near, I feel stressed as a teacher in senior school. Making to-do lists is a good way.
