高中英语真题：2015届高三上学期期中考试试卷试题.doc一、阅读理解(共5题)1.When Paul was a boy growing up in Utah, he happened to live near a copper smelter (炼铜厂), and the chemicals that poured out had made a wasteland out of what used to be a beautiful forest. One day a young visitor looked at this wasteland and called it an awful area. Paul knocked him down. From then on, something happened inside him.Years later Paul was back in the area, and he went to the smelter office. He asked if they had any plans or if they would let him try to bring the trees back. The answer from that big industry was “No”.Paul then went to college to study the science of plants. Unfortunately, his teachers said th ere weren’t any birds or squirrels to spread the seeds. It would be a waste of his life to try to do it. Everyone knew that, he was told. Even if he was knowledgeable as he had expected, he wouldn’t get his ideaaccepted.Paul later got married but his dream would not die. And then one night he did what he could with what he had. As Samuel Johnson wrote, “It is common to overlook what is near by keeping the eye fixed on something remote. Attainable good is often ignored by minds busied in wide range s.” Under the cover of darkness, he went secretly into the wasteland and started planting.And every week, he made his secret journey into the wasteland and planted trees and grass. For fifteen years he did this against the plain common sense. Slowly rabbits appeared. Later, as there was legal pressure to clean up the environment, the company actually hired Paul to do what he was already doing.Now the place is fourteen thousand acres of trees and grass and bushes, and Paul has received almost every environmental award Utah has. It took him until his hair turned white, but he managed to keep that impossible vow (誓言) he made to himself as a child.21. When Paul was a boy, _______.A. he had decided never to leave his hometownB. the economy of Utah depended wholly on the copper smelterC. he hit a young visitor because of his comments on the wastelandD. he stopped the copper smelter polluting the area22. Paul went to college to study the science of plants, because _______.A. he wanted to find out the best way to save the area himselfB. he was interested in planting trees since he was youngC. he wanted to get more knowledgeable people to help himD. he thought his knowledge would make his advice more convincing23. W hat does the underlined phrase “the plain common sense” probably mean?A. It was impossible for trees to grow on the wasteland.B. His normal work and life would be greatly affected.C. No one would like to join him in the efforts.D. He had to keep everything he did secret.24. The company hired Paul to plant trees and grass because_______.A. they realized the importance of environmental protectionB. what Paul was doing moved themC. Paul persuaded them to help himD. they had legal pressure2.Music died here last spring, or rather, it was killed by members of the school committee who ignored the importance of music and drama as part of the high-school curriculum (课程).The committee decided that teaching students how to take a standardized test is more important than a curriculum in which students can explore their interests in the arts as well as academics. Because the school system is running out of funding, it needs to make sure that students pass the test or even more money will be lost. If students fail the state standardized test，it is not the fault of drama and music classes—they are failing because the “academic” classes are not sufficient (充足的).It is painful to think of how many students will be discouraged from singing, acting, and playing instruments because school programs are no longer offered. Many families cannot afford private music lessons, and many potential musicians and artists may not find their calling if they are not exposed to it in school. The fact that the school committee thinks the arts are not worth the investment will certainly make some students believe the arts are not worth their time or support and the cycle will continue.Teaching for a test does not shape students into complete,well-rounded people. It blocks the natural sense to create and express feelings through art—there is more to life than the analytical thinking that math and English provide. What happens after a test? Sure, a student might graduate, but they will have limited knowledge—certainly not a good preparation for the real world.25. Music and drama are not included in the high school curriculum mainly because ________.A. the school committee pays no attention to themB. the school is afraid of losing financial supportC. the students are not interested in both of themD. the state standardized test is more important26. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The sufficiency of the classes determines students’ performance in the mastery test.B. Quite a few students are discouraged from learning music and art in today’s school system.C. Students can be musicians and artists only if they can afford private music lessons.D. The school committee completely influences students’attitude towards the arts.27. We can learn that music and art can ________.A. motivate students in creativity and expressionB. make students round-shaped people in futureC. provide students with analytical thinkingD. prevent students graduation from high school28. The best title of the passage can be ________.A. Who killed music and drama?B. Can curriculum go without music?C. Why is music so important?D. How to prepare for the real world?3. For more than 40 years, scientists have sought to learn how wellhuman beings can adapt to long periods in space. The International Space Station continues to provide valuable knowledge about spaceflight. But an earlier space station, Skylab, helped make the current space project possible.Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield sang aboard the International Space Station on May 12, 2013. His music video has become extremely popular. The astronaut played his own version of David Bowie’s so ng Space Oddity. He performed while floating weightlessly, with images of planet earth and space appearing in the window behind him.Chris Hadfield recently returned home after nearly five months on the space station. For him, the long flight produced a hit video on YouTube and no major physical problems. But 40 years ago, scientists did not know how humans would react to long-term spaceflight. To find out, NASA, the American space agency, launched Skylab in May, 1973. Over nearly a year, three teams of astronauts visited Skylab for stays of between 28 to 84 days. They learned how people react to extended periods in space.Gerald Carr commanded Skylab 4. He spoke at a NASA event marking the 40th anniversary of Skylab’s launch. He s aid that the loss of the body’s muscle mass was a main concern. Astronauts on Skylab used exercise equipment to stay strong. The astronauts spent their workdays carrying out experiments, including biomedical (生物医学的) research.Marshall Porterfie ld is the director of NASA’s Space Life and Physical Sciences Division. He says the Skylab astronauts’ understanding of their own ability to deal with long-term spaceflight continues to help current astronauts. NASA says the next step for life away from Earth is a year-longspace station mission, set for 2015.29. Why was Chris Hadfield’s song so special?A. It was performed in space.B. It was created by an astronaut.C. It was a very familiar song.D. It was first sung by a famous singer.30. Which of the following best describes the physical condition of Chris Hadfield after his return?A. Worse.B. Better.C. Normal.D. Weaker.31. For what purpose did NASA launch Skylab?A. To research on whether human beings could stay in space.B. To gather up information on setting up a space station.C. To study the changes in the body when staying long in space.D. To find out the possibility of doing experiments in space.32. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Skylab is still in use to explore the space.B. The research results on Skylab are still valuable.C. Skylab is more advanced than the International Space Station.D. The Skylab astronauts made great contributions to biomedical research.4.Suppose you are thinking about attending college in the United States, but perhaps you might not be ready for a university with a four-year program. About 88,000 international students have found solution. They are attending U.S. community colleges. Such colleges are sometimes called junior colleges. They offer two years of education above the secondary or high school level.Community college students can choose from subjects like medical assistance, computer science or law. At the end of their study program, they receive a document of completion, called a certificate. Some students work toward an associate degree in traditional academic subjects like science or history. After getting it, the students can move on to a four-year college or university. They may have only two years of study left before they receive abachelor’s degree.Many educational experts agree that saving money is the major reason to consider a community college. The American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) says that a public two-year college costs 3,000 dollar a year on average. That is true if the student lives in the same state as the school. A student at a four-year public college may pay 8,500 dollars a year for classes and user fees. That does not include books and other materials.Some international students may need more preparation in English before entering a community college in the United States. For example, Istrif Montgomery came to the U.S. from Kosovo in 2006. First, he worked to improve his English at Montgomery College for a year. Then for the next two years, he attended classes in basic subjects in a community college.The international students at two-year colleges need to find a place to live. Most community colleges do not provide student housing on their grounds. But Mr Montgomery had a home nearby. He was able to ride the bicycle, and he was able to walk if he wanted. In fact, most community college students live within five to ten miles off the college.33. What’s the biggest advantage of a community college?A. The classes are free of charge.B. The students can save much time.C. The students can save a lot of money.D. It is convenient for students to live in the college.34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Mr Montgomery usually goes to school on foot.B. Most students in community colleges don’t live far away.C. 8,500 dollars covers all the cost of a four-year public college.D. International students often attend a community college directly.35. What’s the main purpose of the passage?A. To encourage students to study abroad.B. To tell the international students how to save money.C. To tell us it’s a good choice to study in public colleges.D. To give some information about community colleges.5.36 The answer is that the government needs money for many things, for example to pay its army, to build public facilities and to buy goods from abroad, and only the people of the country can supply the money.37 That is, a person pays according to the amount of his income. Whether he is a merchant, a doctor, a lawyer, a shopkeeper, a miner, or anything else, he must pay tax if his income is more than a certain amount. This is called a “direct” tax, because it is paid in money direct to the government.Another tax is paid on goods such as watches, jewelry, tobacco, wine, etc. When they are brought into a country, such a tax is paid as part of the price of these goods if they are later sold in shops. 38People usually complain about having to pay taxes, but they forget that the money is spent on things that they and their families need. We need policemen to catch thieves, and they must be paid what they earn; children need education and there must be schools and teachers; we want our streets to be kept clean, and the wages of men who do this kind of work have to be paid. 39 And we cannot have an army without paying for it.40 We have no real cause to complain when we are asked to pay taxes for the good of ourselves and for our fellow citizens.A. Why must we pay taxes?C. Taxes, therefore, cannot be avoided.D. Taxes, however, should be cancelled.E. One of the most important taxes is income tax.F. We call it “indirect” tax, because it is paid indirectly through the shopkeeper.G. Above all, the country must always be ready to defend itself against attacking enemies.二、完型填空(共1题)1.Starbucks is the biggest coffee shop network in the world with more than 15,000 shops in 44 countries. It was first 41 in Seattle, Washington in 1971 by three people with just a 42 shop that sold selected coffee beans.

An English padre(神父) wanted to become a member of a certain club in Africa. In order to become a member, each person had to 1 at least one lion. The padre had never shot an animal for his life.

I always felt 36 from everybody else at school. As hard as I tried to keep myself 37 , I started getting bullied(霸凌). I 38 who I was, wore really plain clothes, and tied up my bright red hair and 39 I wouldn’t attract as much attention. Eventually, I 40 to an arts high school, which was much more 41 . There, I felt brave enough to show off the unique sides of my 42 and made friends who loved me for who I was.More recently, I’ve 43 with confidence in my skin. When I moved to L.

I tell them, whoever is treating you that way is 53 something, and it has nothing to do with you. Like for Cheryl, every time her 54 erupts, it has to do with how she’s feeling a bout herself rather than the other characters.

Some Native American Indians gave it the name.C. The street got its name due to the original architecture there.D. The English adopted the name in memory of the original wall.57. Among the important landmarks, which used to stage certain political events?A. Trinity Church.B. Federal Hall National Memorial.C. The New York Stock Exchange.D. Bankers Trust Company Building.BDo you like cholocate? It’s popular all over the world, but why? Scientists have been trying to discover its secrets.The main thing is that chocolate makes us happy. This may have something to do with the 380 known chemicals found in it. The problem is that many of these chemicals appear in other types of food too. So, it’s difficult to know why the ones in chocolate make us feel g ood. But we aren’t all lost. Adam Drewnowski at the University of Michigan found that chocolate makes the human brain produce natural opiates, called opioids(鸦片). These can stop pain and make us feel good.Others think that we feel good after eating chocolate because of a chemical called anandamide. This occurs naturally in the brain and seems to give us a feeling of happiness. Normally, our levels of anandamide are very low and our body uses it quickly. But two scientists, Emmanuelle di Tomaso of Harvard University and Daniele Piomelli of the University of California believe that the anandamide in chcocolate raises levels of the chemical in our brain. And other substances in chocolate slow down the speed at which we use it. So, chocolate helps us feel happier for longer! Great!But which chocolate is the best? Well, for a start, there’s more anandamide in dark chocolate than milk chocolate. So, you need to buy some dark chocolate. Then, you should follow these five tips from connoisseur chocolate makers Ghirardelli. They say that when choosing chocolate, you need to use all five senses:1.Sight: good chocolate has a shine to it.2.Smell: rub the chocolate with your finger to release the aroma. It should have a deepchocolate smell.3.Sound: when you break a piece of chocolate it should snap crisply, creating a soundsimilar to that of a thin piece of wood being broken.4.Touch: the chocolate should melt easily in your mouth becoming a thick liquid.5.Taste: good chocolate should not taste too sweet or too bitter.58. Why does the author mention opioids in Paragraph 2?A. To prove chocolate contains the same chemicals as opioids.B. To show the sharp contrast between chocolate and opioids.C. To suggest that chocolate is as highly addictive as opioids.D. To help explain the reason why chocolate brings pleasure.59. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to _______.A. anandamideB. chocolateC. opiateD. Brain60. Which of the following best suits “perfect chocolate” according to cho colate makers?A. Milk chocolate that produces a dull sound when broken.B. Milk chocolate that has shiny appearance and bitter taste.C. Dark chocolate that is easy to melt and of moderate taste.D. Dark chocolate that gives off a sweet and deep fragrance.CLandscapes are not only the setting for history; they are also a major ssource of our sense of history and identity. Read them right, and historical landscapes can be more informative than any other kind of source. This is even more the case with sacred landscapes, which were reflection of our ancestors’ beliefs about their relation to the cosmos and can still today seem to hold a spiritual influence.Over the years, I’ve had the good fortune to have spent tim e in many historical landscapes, hoping to picture something of the spirits of the people who shaped them over the centuries. I still remember years ago walking along the Inca sacred lines around Cuso, Peru. In this ancient landscape, old sites that once belonged to Incan royals had become torn Spanish mansions. Or many years ago, before the Gulf Wars, I took a journey through south Iraq, the heart land of civilization, where the desert is still crossed by dried-up riverbeds of the Euphrates and canals that once sustained the world’s first cities.Britain also has its own magical ancient landscapes. From the Mesolithic to the Bronze andIron Ages, rich layers of the past are still present in the landscape surrounding Stonehenge, even as traffic rushes down the A303. It is the A303 that is the problem. As the main road to the south west from the home counties, the road runs right past Stonehenge. One of humanity’s most famous monuments, Stonehenge is an archaeological landscape without parallel in Europe, and perhaps the world. The first circle at Stonehenge was made 5,000 years ago, and the great stone circle itself in a round 2,500 BC ----the age of the pyramids! And the mysteries of this amazing monument and the complex prehistoric societies that produced it are by no means exhausted, as new discoveries continue to show.All the more worrying to me then, this unique landscape is currently at the centre of a projected plan by Highways England, which aims to relieve congestion on the A303 by creating a four-lane road with a 1.8-mile tunnel, and an expressway interchange 1.5 miles to the west. While the National Trust and English Heritage have offered qualified support for the plan, UNESCO has expressed its opposition. Meanwhile, the Stonehenge Alliance, a group of archaeologists and environmental campaigners, says the plan is based on inadequate and obsolete information. In the end, the argument is about the totality of an ancient landscape, and that includes the ancient astronomical alignment that was purposefully chosen by our ancestors, and that will, in my view, be werecked by the xpressway interchange. Time perhaps for a rethink in the name of future generations?61. What can historical landscapes offer us?A. Details of ancient lifestyle.B. Sacred writingsC. Rich historical informationD. Breathtaking sights.62. What did the author want to explore when touring historical landscapes?A. Different archcitecture.B. His sense of belonging.C. The rise of ancient citiesD. The spirits of ancestors.63. Which of the following is True about Stonehenge?A. The first stone circle has a longer history than the pyramids.B. New discoveries have solved the mysteries of the monument.C. The ancient monument must have been the heart land of civilizaiton.D. The landscape surrounding Stonehenge has rich layers of the present.64. What is the author’s attitude towards the projected plan by Highways England?A. He is for it because it will benefit the future generations.B. He keeps cool but believes a better solution could be adopted.C. It should be stopped because it will destroy the totality of the monument.D. It is rather practical especially with qualified support from the government.D.The news one day reached Gabriel that Bathsheba had left the neighborhood. Her abrupt departure is more emphatic than her verbal refusal of his offer. It may have been observed that there is no regular path for getting out of love as there is for getting in. All that Gabriel learnt of Bathsheba’s movements was done indirectly. It appeared that she had gone to a place called Weatherbury, which, whether as a visitor or permanently, he could not discover.Gabriel had two dogs. George, the elder, had originally belonged to a shepherd (牧羊人) of inferior morals and dreadful temper. Long experience had so precisely taught the animal the difference between different orders. Though old, he was clever and trustworthy still. The youngdog, George’s son, might possibly have been the image of his mother, for there was not much resemblance between him and George. He was learning the sheep-keeping business. So earnest and yet so wrongheaded was this young dog that if sent behind he did it so thoroughly that he would have chased them across the whole country with the greatest pleasure if not called off.One night, when Gabriel had returned to his house, he called as usual to the dogs, previously shutting them up in the outhouse till next morning. Only one responded----old George; the other could not be found. ①Gabriel then concluded that the young one had not finished his meal, and he went indoors to the luxxury of a bed.It was a still and wet night. Just before dawn he was woken by the abnormal reverberation of familiar music. To the shepherd, the note of the sheep-bell is beating with unusual violence and rapidity. The experienced ear of Gabriel knew the sound was caused by the running of the flock with great speed. ②He jumped out of bed and ascended the hill. These two hundred ewes( female sheep) seemed to have absolutely vanished from the hill. Gabriel called at the top of his voice:‘Ovey, ovey, ovey!’He called again: the valleys and furthest hills resounded but no sheep. He passed through the trees and along the ridge of the hill. ③He advanced: at one point the rails were broken through, and there he saw the footprints of his ewes. The dog came up, licked his hand, and made signs implying that he expected some great reward. Gabriel looked over the side of the mountain. The ewes lay dead----a pile of two hundred dead bodies.As far as could be learnt, it appeared that the poor young dog, still under the impression that since he was kept for funning after sheep, the more he ran after them the better, had at the end of his meal off the dead lamb, which may have given him additional energy and spirits, collected all the ewes into a corner and driven the timid creatures through the hedge, breaking down a portion of the rotten railing. ④Gabriel was an intensely humane man; his first feeling now was one of pity for the untimely fate of these gentle ewes and their unborn lambs. It was a sxecond to remember another stage of the matter. All the savings had been gone at a blow; his hopes of being an independent farmer were laid low. Gabriel’s energies, patience, and industry had been so severely taxed during the years of his life, to reach his present stage of progress, that no more seemed to be left in him. He leant down upon a rail, covered his face with his hands and uttered in thankfulness: “Thank God I am not married: what would she have done in the poverty now coming upon me!”Gabriel found that the value of remaining lambs, plant, and implements which were really his own would be about sufficient to pay his debts, leaving himself a free man with the clothes he stood up in, and nothing more. Two months later, Gabriel was discovered at the hiring fair in Casterbridge. Though he was not hired, he earned a few pennies at the hiring fair and learned that another fair would be held at Shottsford, 10 miles beyong Weatherbury.65. How did Gabriel feel after Bathsheba’s departure?A. He was consumed with anger.B. He quickly adapted and moved on .C. He decided to stick to his first love.D. He was at a loss to grasp the reasons.66. What can we learn about the young dog?A. He was more than capable of doing a shepherd dog’s duty.B. He was slow in responding to Gabriel’s different orders.C. He bore a striking resemblance to the old dog George.D. He belonged to those of terrible temper and behavior.67. Where should the sentence “ On the extreme summit, he saw the younger dog standing against the sky----dark and motionless.” Be put in the passage?A.①B. ②C. ③D. ④68. Two hundred ewes died mainly due to ______.A. Gabriel’s carelessness.B. the absence of old GeorgeC. the young dog’s wrong impressionD. the unpleasant weather conditions69. Why did Gabriel utter such words in thankfulness after such a blow to him?A. He eas greatly relieved to know that no villager got hurt in the disaster.B. He felt lucky that he oculd pay off his debts with the remaining things on the farm.C. He was convinced that with patience and industry such a situation would improve.D. He had such a considerate and sympathetic nature that he didn’t want ot bother others.70. What might happen in the following paragraphs?A. Gabriel decided to see Bathsheba on his way to Shottsford.B. Gabriel found a good job in Casterbridge and succeeded again.C. The young dog was abandoned for his failure ot perform his duty.D. Good neighbors gave Gabriel a hand and restored the rotten railing.第四部分任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

In the story, Mavis, a teenager vampire, feels very depressed about his life because his caring father forbids her to explore the human world.As a teenager myself, I feel to some extent the same way Mavis does. With much school work to cope with, I feel very stressed and don’t know how to schedule work and play. I love to stay up late when I feel very energetic and highly productive, but the sch ool sticks to the “early to bed early to rise” rule, which makes me sleepy in the early morning like a fool. Besides, due to the lack of outdoor activities, I have been gaining weight, which makes me really ashamed.I sincerely hope that the school can allow me more freedom to decide on my self study time. Also, I will appreciate it if my teachers can give me guidance to help improve my efficiency so that I can afford the time to work out to keep fit. Thus, I will look good and feel good.书面表达评分要点：1. 评分时，先根据文章的语言和内容初步确定其所属档次，然后以该档次的要求来衡量，确定或调整档次，最后给分。

Police and the FBI are investigating a possible lead into the 33-year-old case of Etan Patz, the first missing child to appear on the side of a milk box.The child disappeared on the way to school on the morning of May 25, 1979. It was the first time he was allowed to walk the two blocks to the bus stop alone.A tip seemed to have led officials to the basement of a building on the corner of Prince and Wooster streets, about a block and a half from where Etan had lived with his family.The name Etan Patz has become a hot topic on Twitter as people weigh in on the case. Shirley Brady noted: “As mom to a 6 years old in Soho, it’s still held out by locals as cautionary tale (警示故事).” Another wrote, “Boy who disappeared on his way to school in 1979 has been REOPENED! Crazy.” One wondered, “Why is FBI and NYPD searching for a kid that disappeared in 1979?”Good question. This is a case that Stuart Gra Bois, as an assistant U.S. lawyer under Rudolph Giuliani, followed for years. It became the most famous missing-person case in New York City, turned a nationwide spotlight on missing children, and created headlines around the globe. No one was ever stated guilty of the crime.The cas e led to the creation of National Missing Children’s Day, marked on May 25, the day the blond-haired, blue-eyed child went missing.The case has even pointed to a suspect, charged with child molester (猥亵者) Julio Antonio Ramos, who is currently in prison. Patz’s babysitter had been dating the man, and Ramos did know the kid, but has denied taking him away.New evidence in the case suggests another suspect who lived in the apartment at the time: a local handyman named Othniel Miller, who gave Etan $1 for helping him the night before the disappearance.The man’s name had come up in an earlier investigation, but he was a friend of the Patz family, and the NYPD did not follow the lead.Investigators plan to be at the site, 127 B Prince St., which is now a Lucky Brand jeans store, for the next two to three days to search for human remains. The Associated Press reports that the excavation (挖掘) has been the result of a recently ordered review of the case by Manhattan’s police.41. We can learn from the first three paragraphs that ________.A. The 6-year-old missing boy was found by the side of a milk boxB. Police and the FBI have not been following the case of Etan Patz for 33 yearsC. The investigation into the disappearance of boy has worked fruitlessly for decadesD. Etan Patz went missing from the Soho area of New York city in 1979 and diedin 200142. What does the underlined phrase “weigh in on the case” mean?A. ignore the caseB. feel stressed on the caseC. reopen the caseD. begin to discuss the case43. What was a possible cause of reopening the case of Etan Patz？A. Local lawyers strongly demanded the reopening of the case.B. The Associated Press reported the result of the review of the case.C. New evidence appeared which led officials to the basement of a building.D. Local people realized the importance of the case without criminal being charged.44. Which of the following statements is true in the text?A. The National Missing Children’s Day was created on May 25, 1979.B. The search for human remains will be carried out at 127 B Prince Street.C. The NYPD didn’t follow the lead of Julio Antonio for he had been dating Patz’babysitter.D. Othniel Miller, a local handyman assisted Etan and gave him $1 before the disappearance.45. We can learn from the passage that ________.A. People air the same view about the case on the InternetB. People reject the reopening of the case of the missing boyC. The missing-person case still has a long-lasting influence on peopleD. Twitter is the only place for people to discuss about missing-person casesBGeneric Name: ASPIRINPronunciation: ['æspərin]Why it is prescribed (开药方)：1.Aspirin relieves mild to moderate pain.2.It reduces fever, redness, and swelling.3.It prevents blood from clotting (凝结).When it is to be taken:1.Aspirin is often taken without a prescription.2.Follow the instructions on the label and package.3.If your doctor prescribes aspirin for you, you will receive specific instructionsfor how often you should take it.4.Keep in touch with your doctor.How it should be taken:1.Aspirin comes in the form of suppositories (栓剂), capsules, and regular, coated,extended-release, and chewable tablets.2.Regular, coated, and extended-release aspirin tablets and capsules should beswallowed with a full glass of water or milk after meals to avoid stomach upset.3.Chewable aspirin tablets may be chewed, crushed, dissolved in a liquid, orswallowed whole; a full glass of water, milk, or fruit juice should be drunk immediately after taking these tablets.Special Instruction:1.Children should not take aspirin for fevers associated with flu or chickenpox(水痘) because such use has been linked with a serious illness known as Reye’s syndrome.2.Adults should not take aspirin for pain for more than 10 days (five days forchildren) without consulting a doctor.3.Aspirin should not be taken by adults or children for high fever, fever lastinglonger than three days without a doctor’s supervision (监管).4.Do not give more than five doses (剂量) to a child in a 24-hour period unlessdirected to do so by a doctor.5.If you miss a dose, take the missed dose as soon as you remember it and resumethe prescribed schedule.Side Effects:1.Although side effects from aspirin are not common, they can occur.2.Nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, indigestion and heartburn are common.

In a research paper.B. In the package of a medicineC. In a medical textbook.D. In a scientific and technological magazineCThe practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的)skill. However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful---both in school and in life.Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(转换) “those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,”the study said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye”helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot(发现) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct then over time.“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”51. What makes writing by hand a thing of the past?A. The absence of blackboard in classroom.B. The use of new technologies inteaching.C. The lack of practice in handwriting.D. The popular use of smartphones.52. Berninger’s study published in 2009 ___________.A. focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.B. indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.C. found that good essays are made up of long sentences.D. discussed the importance of writing speed.53. Which of the following best shows the role of spelling?A. Spelling improves one’s memory of words.B. Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.C. Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.D. Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas.54. What does “mind’s eye” in paragraph 5 mean?A. Window.B. SoulC. Picture.D. Imagination.55. What conclusion could be drawn from the passage?A. Computers can help people with their choice of words.B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.C. Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms.D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.DMy grandson, Daniel, and I have always bee n very close. When Daniel’s father remarried after a divorce, Daniel, who was eleven, and his little sister, Kristie, came to live with us. My husband and I were more than happy to have kids in the house again.Things were going along just fine until the diabetes (糖尿病) I’ve lived with most of my adult life started affecting my eyes, and then more seriously, my kidneys (肾). Then everything seemed to fall apart.Three times a week, I had to go to the hospital to be hooked up to a dialysis machine (透析机). I was living, but I couldn’t really call it a life --- it was an existence. I had no energy. I dragged myself through daily chores and slept as much as I could. My sense of humor seemed to disappear.Daniel, seventeen by then, was really affected by the change in me. He tried as hard as he could to make me laugh, to bring back the grandma who loved to clown around (开玩笑) with him. Even in my sorry state, Daniel could still bring a smile to my face.But things were not improving. After a year on dialysis, my condition was deteriorating (恶化) and the doctors felt that if I didn’t receive a kidney transplant within six months, I would surely die. No one told Daniel this, but he knew --- he said all he had to do was look after me. To top it off, as my condition worsened, there was a chance that I would become too weak to have the transplant surgery at all, and then there would be nothing they could do for me. So we started the tense and desperate wait for a kidney.I was adamant (坚决的) that I didn’t want a kidney from anyone I knew. I would wait until an appropriate kidney became available, or I would literally die waiting. But Daniel had other plans. The time that he took me to my dialysis appointments, he did a little secret research on his own. Then he announced his intention to me.“Grandma, I’m giving you one of my kidneys. I’m young and I’m healthy …” He paused. He could see I wasn’t at all happy with his offer. He continued, almost in whisper, “And most of all, I couldn’t stand it if you weren’t around.” His face wore an expression of appeal mixed with determination. He can be as stubborn as a mule (驴) once he decides on something --- but I’ve been told many times that I can out-stubborn any mule!We argued. I couldn’t let him do it. We both knew that if he gave up his kidney, he would also give up his life’s dream; to play football. It was all he ever talked about. And he was good, too. Daniel was co-captain and star defensive tackle (防守阻截队员) of his high school team; he expected to apply for a football scholarship and was looking forward to playing college football. He just loved the sport.“How can I let you throw away the thing that means the most to you?” I pleaded with him.“Grandma,” he said softly, “compared to your life, foo tball means nothing to me.”After that, I couldn’t argue anymore. So we agreed to see if he was a good donor (捐赠者) match, and then we’d discuss it further. When the tests came back, they showed Daniel was a perfect match. That was it. I knew I wasn’t going to win that argument, so we scheduled the transplant.Both surgeries went smoothly. As soon as I came out of the anesthesia (麻醉) , I could tell things were different. I felt great! The nurses in the intensive care unit had to keep telling me to lie back and be quiet --- I wasn’t supposed to be that lively! I was afraid to go to sleep, for fear I would break the spell (魔法) and wake up the way I had been before. But the good feeling didn’t go away, and I spent the evening joking and laughing with anyone who would listen. It was so wonderful to feel alive again.The next day they moved me out of ICU and onto the floor where Daniel was recuperating (复原) three doors away. His grandfather helped him walk down to see me as soon as I was moved into my room. When we saw each other, we did not know what to say. Holding hands, we just sat there and looked at each other for a long time, overwhelmed by the deep feeling of love that connected us.Finally, he spoke, “Was it worthwhile, grandma?”I laughed a little ruefully (懊悔). “It was for me! But was it for you?” I asked him.He nodded and smiled at me. “I’ve got my grandma back.”And I have my life back. It still amazes me. Every morning, when I wake up, I thank God --- and Daniel --- for this miracle. A miracle born of the purest love.56. Gran dma’s diabetes brought about all the following EXCEPT that _______.A. her eyes and her kidneys were affectedB. grandma became quite a different personC. Daniel had to be sent back to his fatherD. everything was thrown into confusion57. When grandma was at her lowest, what did Daniel do to bring her back to her usual life?A. He tried his best to make her laugh.B. He helped her with the daily chores.C. He gave up his dream of going to college.D. He searched desperately for a good donor match.58. How did grandma feel when Daniel announced his intention to give her one of his kidneys?A. She was moved by his selfless decision.B. She wasn’t at all happy with his offer.C. She felt relieved that an appropriate kidney was available.D. She was enthusiastic about having a kidney of someone she loved.59. How was grandma when she came out of the anesthesia after the surgery?A. She was feeling low.B. She was full of life.C. She was exhausted.D. She was the way she had been before.60. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. Grandma got her life back thanks to Daniel’s selfless donation.B. Grandma thought her returning to life was a miracle of pure love.C. Daniel agreed with grandma that the transplant was worthwhile for her, not for him.D. Much as he loved football, grandma’s life meant the most to Daniel.第二节：根据短文内容，从A、B、C、D、E,F中选出最适合放入短文空缺处的选项，并将序号及相应答案写在答题纸上。
