I took a trip to Gloucester to see some of the world ’s most beautiful and exciting animals-whales in the North Atlantic Ocean.After a long trip by train and bus, we got on the ship called Privateer. On our way to see the whales on that beautiful sunny day, I grew more and more excited.After a while, we stopped and everyone on the shipstarted to shout because we saw whales. It was wonderful!While we were watching the whales, a guide was giving us information about them. She told us that we saw only two kinds of whales-50-foot whales(singing whales) and 70-foot whales(the second largest whales on the earth). She also said wecould easily tell different kinds of whales by their tails(尾巴), since every whale has a different tail, just like people have different fingerprints (指纹) .They all have names, and on the trip, we saw “Salt”and “Pepper”, two whales named by a scientist and a fisherman. They swam together all the time. Sometimes, whales came so close to the ship that we thought we could easily touch them.I took twenty-seven photos, which was a really hard job because they moved so quickly and stayed on the surface of the ocean just for a short time. Having seen the whales was one of the chances few people ever got. I was lucky enough to have that chance.1.The passage is mainly about_______.A. a trip to see whalesB. different kinds of whalesC. a trip to study ocean animalsD. different kinds of animals in the ocean2.We can learn from Paragragh 4 that______.A.70-foot whales are the largest in the worldB. whales have fingerprints as people doC. there are only two kinds of whalesD.whales all have different tails3.Seeing the whales, the author_______.A.got close to touch themB.gave them the namesC.tool photos of themD.swam with then4. Which word can best describe the author ’s feeling about this trip?A. ExcitedB. FrightenedC. BoredD.SurprisedBBessie Coleman was born in Atlanta, Texas, in 1892. Her mother was African American. Her father was part African American and part American Indian. Her family was poor. Bessie had to walk more than six kilometers to go to school.Bessie had to pick cotton and wash clothes to help earn money for her family. She was able to save a little money and went to college in the state of Oklahoma. She was in college only one year because she did not have enough money to competeher studies. But during that year, she learned about flying. She read about the first flight of the Wright Brothers and the first American female pilot, Harriet Quimby.When she was 23, Bessie Coleman moved to Chicago, Illinois to live with two of her older brothers. There, she heard stories from pilots who were returning form World War ?. She decided she was going to learn how to fly airplanes. But she soon found this to be almost impossible. What flight schoolwould admit a black woman? Bessie learned that she would have a better chance in Europe. She began to study French at a language school in Chicago.Soon after the end of World War ?, Bessie Coleman left for France. She attended the famous flight school, Ecole d ’Aviation des Freres Caudron. She completed seven months of flight training. Coleman earned her international permit to fly in 1921 and she became the first black woman ever to earn an international pilot ’s license.Coleman returned to Chicago. She was the only black female pilot in the United States. So her story became popular in African American newspapers. She was asked by the Dallas Express newspaper in Texas why she wanted to fly. She said that women and blacks must have pilots if they are to keep up with the times.1.Bessie Coleman walked to school every day probably because______.A.She couldn’tafford to take the busB.She was stronger than othersC.She wanted to do physical exerciseD.She liked walking2.Bessie Coleman came to know about something about flying_____.A.when she was in high schoolB.after she graduated from collegeC.when she was at collegeD.during the World War ?3.The underlined word “this”in Paragraph 3 probably refers to ______.A.going to EuropeB.Attending flight schoolC.Living with her brotherD.Learning French in Chicago4.what happened during Bessie Coleman’s stay in France?A.

It can be inferred that Bessie Coleman was_______.A.hard-workingB.well-traveledC.warm-heartedD.easy-goingCAfter a particularly busy period at work, I decided to get away from it all by going on a hike in the mountains in southern France.Before I left, I read an interesting story in a magazine. It read, “Once, while I was riding on a crowding bus, the mansitting next to me threw his cell phone out of the window when his phone rang. I was surprised. He looked at me, shrugged and looked away. I had no idea whether it was his or stolen or whether he even knew what a cell phone was or not, but he clearly wanted to be free of it because it clearly troubled him.”Billions of people across the world use cell phones. Thoughcell phones are a wonderful way for communication, they often do the exact opposite. Using cell phones can increase stress within families and friends.So when I recently returned home, I got rid of my cell phone. Now I go outside without taking my phone with me. I ’venoticed things in my neighborhood I never noticed before, such as gardens. I ’ve met new people, started conversations with neighbors I didn ’tspeak to before and talked with some of my friends face to instead of chatting over the phone.Instead of keeping me off from the world, stopping using me cell phone has helped me get even closer to my family and friends.1.According to the story, the man on the bus threw away his cell phone because______.A.

⽜津版⾼⼀英语必修3Unit 1练习试题及答案(2) Ⅲ.阅读理解(共15⼩题;每⼩题2分,满分30分) A My dad was in the hospital battling a serious disease when he was rushed to the operating room.After a hurried talk with Dad's doctors,Mother told my sister and me the worst. Throughout my childhood,my father had survived many serious medical problems,including a heart attack and cancer.He'd seen the four walls of the hospital room more times than anyone should have to.“Lord,” I prayed,“please save him.We can't live without him.” Dad pulled through.As soon as he felt better,he told us something amazing about that day in the operating room. “I was scared.I knew I was dying,”he said.“I moved my head to one side and watched the nurses preparing for the operation.Beyond them I saw a large window which was open.Out of it was a lighted cross.My eyes were fixed upon it.My fears died out.I had the strength to beat the disease and I believed my operation would be successful.The operation started,and then I didn't know anything.” Dad recovered fully and several months later he went to call on a friend at the same hospital.There he looked around for the cross he'd seen.He couldn't find it.He ran into one of the nurses who had taken care of him.“Can I take a quick look at the operating room where I had my operation?” he asked.The room was free so she took him in.My father was very surprised.There were no windows in the room,and the four walls were solid through and through.Why did he see the cross? It was really amazing,but I think he must have had hallucinations (幻觉)at that time. 36.After talking with the doctors,the author's mother ________. A.thought her husband would probably die B.rushed to the operating room C.encouraged the author to stay positive D.didn't know what to do at all 37.From the passage we learn that the author's father ________. A.always had bad luck B.had many good friends C.often suffered from bad health D.lived a very long life 38.The author's father believed his operation would be successful because ________. A.the doctors were excellent and tried their best B.the cross he saw gave him confidence C.his family members encouraged him D.he had recovered from many diseases 39.After recovery,the author's father went to the hospital mainly to ________.A.see the crossB.talk with the nurseC.see the doctorD.visit his friend B This is the story of my dog called Shandy.He was my favorite pet and he was very lively.His main passion in life was to be taken for a long walk,ending with a big run out in his favorite park. I would try to take him on this walk every day,weather permitting.The park itself was about three miles away from our house.To reach the park we had to cross a number of busy roads,and he would never pull or misbehave.He knew where we were heading and seemingly did not want to risk being taken home before he reached his dream destination. But because of my work I had to rent a flat near the coast in Devon.It was nearly a hundred miles away from my home.This obviously meant I was no longer in the position to take Shandy on his walk.I spoke to my parents,who comforted me that they would continue to take him on the walks. Two weeks after I had left,I had a phone call from my mother.She was panicking(惊慌),saying that Shandy had managed to escape from the back garden and that she could not find him.She insisted that she had been looking for hours but that there had been no sign of him.I was quite worried and thought about where he might have gone,“Have you been taking him on his walks to the park every day?”I asked.She replied,“Most days.”I asked her to try at the park.“He would not be there;it's miles away,”she said.I again asked her to try there because running in the park was his habit.Luckily he was there quite happily sniffing(闻) around,unaware of the panic(恐慌) he had caused. 40.The author left the dog home because ________. A.his dog didn't want to go with him B.Devon didn't have a park C.it was not convenient for him to take his dog D.he feared that his mother would feel lonely 41.From the mother's answer on the phone,we can infer that ________. A.she wanted to joke with her son B.she didn't want to look for the dog C.she was very tired of the dog D.she wasn't as familiar with the dog as her son 42.The dog went to the park ________. A.to wait for the author B.to look for something to eat C.to play with his good friends D.to enjoy himself there 43.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.Shandy had a good memory but a bad temper. B.Shandy was heartbroken and was too sad to go home. C.Shandy could not come back if the author's mother didn't find him. D.Though the park was a little far away from home,the author and Shandy went to the park every day if the weather permitted. C A holiday is any day when people lay aside their ordinary duties and cares.The word comes from Old English.At first,holidays honored some holy events or persons.People in Great Britain and other countries speak of holidays as Americans speak of vacations. Every nation has its special holidays.China observes_New Year's Day (January 1),May Day and National Day as legal (法定的) holidays,as it was on Oct.1,1949 that People's Republic of China was founded.The Chinese have long celebrated the Chinese lunar year.In the United States,congress has declared several as legal days such as New Year's Day (January 1),Martin Luther King,Jr.'s Birthday,Washington's Birthday,Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day and so on.Some holidays celebrate special events in the development of a country,such as Greece's Independence Day,Italy's Liberation Day and India's Independence Day. In the United States,banks and schools usually close on a legal holiday.When such a holiday falls on Sunday,the following Monday is usually observed.Schools and organizations often observe daysknown as traditional holidays,although schools and business do not close then.Those holidays include Valentine's Day and Halloween. 44.Which of the following holidays has nothing to do with a country's development? A.China's National Day. B.Valentine's Day. C.Italy's Liberation Day. D.America's Independence Day. 45.From the passage we can infer that ________. A.Chinese will no longer observe the Spring Festival B.students don't have to go to school on any holiday C.Chinese and Americans share at least one holiday D.Americans can easily draw money from banks on legal days 46.In the sentence “China observes New Year's Day (January 1)”,“observes”means ________.A.praisesB.spendsC.celebratesD.cares 47.If a legal holiday falls on Sunday,people usually celebrate on ________. A.Sunday B.the following Sunday C.the following Monday D.the following Tuesday D Everything we know about the world comes to us through our senses.Traditionally,we were thought to have just five of them-sight,hearing,touch,smell,and taste. Although we pay little attention to them,each of these senses is precious and almost irreplaceable-as we discover,to our sorrow,if we lose one.People usually fear blindness above all other disabilities.Yet deafness can be an even more severe handicap,especially in early life,when children learn language.This is why Helen Keller's achievements were so extraordinary. As a result of an illness at the age of 19 months,she lost both sight and hearing and sank into a totally dark,silent world.She was rescued from this terrible separation by her teacher,Anne Sullivan,who managed to explain,by tapping signs into the little girl's palm,that things have names,that letters make up words,and that these can be used to express wants or ideas. Helen Keller later grew into a writer and a wellknown advocate for the handicapped.Her remarkable development owed a great deal to her determination,her teacher,and her family.But it also showed that when a sense(or two,in Helen Keller's case)is missing,another sense(in her case,touch) may be trained to make up for the loss,at least in part. Our nervous system reacts only to a selected range of wavelengths,vibrations,or other properties.It is limited by our genes,as well as our previous experience and our present state of attention. What draws our attention,in many cases,is change.Our senses are finely adjusted to change.Stationary or unchanging objects become part of the scenery and are mostly ual sounds become background noise,mostly unheard.The feel of a sweater against our skin is soon unnoticed. If something in the environment changes,we need to take notice because it might mean danger—or opportunity.Suppose an insect lands on your leg,instantly the touch receptors on the affected leg fire a message that travels up to your brain.There it crosses into the opposite hemisphere(the right hemisphere of the brain controls the left side of the body,and vice versa)to alert brain cells at a particular spot on a sensory map of the body. 48.The author refers to Helen Keller in order to ________. A.prove deafness is a more severe handicap than others B.encourage deaf people to learn from her C.show it is important to learn language in early life D.suggest hearing is precious and irreplaceable 49.Which of the following will draw our attention according to the passage? A.A sweater against your skin when you are working. B.Noise of the air conditioner when you are doing your homework. C.A sudden quake of the room. D.A sleeping cat in your sofa. 50.The underlined word “stationary” in Paragraph 6 means ________.A.changingB.stillC.activeD.quiet Ⅳ.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。

The team of dogs arrived in the Philippines from Spain, and this Tuesday they were just beginning their work. Search officials told CNN they hope the recent rain will wash away the smell of rescue teams so the dogs can do their job more accurately.The dogs were brought in after sound equipment found sounds coming from deep inside the ruins, at a place where a school stood before the mudslide covered it. The sounds could mean people are still alive under all the mud or it could just be the earth resetting.On Monday, rescue workers worked at the school site until three in the morning, trying to locate survivors, and they will begin digging again as soon as the dogs think they find someone.Human teams from the US, Malaysia, and Australia are all trying to help, too. But so far they have yet to locate any survivors. Rescue workers told CNN that an earlier report stating that 50 survivors had been found was false.How did all that mud bury the village in the first place? On Friday, 2,400-foot Mt Kanabag turned into a mudslide after two weeks of constant rain weakened it. The mountain crumbled and the mud fell onto the village Guinsaugon, burying the 1,800 people who lived there. Out of the 300 houses in the village, only 3 were not covered by the mud. The village is on a southern Philippine island called Levte. Rescue efforts have been difficult because the village takes six hours to reach from the nearest airport. Hopefully, the dogs can help their human friends find survivors.()1.What can we learn according to the search officials’ words in the first paragraph?A.The smell of rescue teams can disturb the dogs.B.The dogs can follow the smell of rescue teams.C.The dogs can’t smell the rescue teams.D.The dogs can tell the smells of buried people and rescue teams apart.()2.What is the purpose of this passage?A.To show the way to rescue the victims in the ruins.B.To introduce the instruments to save victims in a disaster.C.To tell readers that dogs can smell out victims buried in the ruins.D.To show how to train dogs to save victims in a mudslide.()3.How many survivors have been found by the dogs?A.50.B.Only a few.C.1,800.D.None.()4.Why didn’t the rescue work go smoothly?A.Because the rain was heavy.B.Because so many people were buried.C.Because it was difficult to reach the village.D.Because there was little chance to save the survivors.Ⅲ.完形填空One sunny afternoon, a seven-year-old girl went for a walk.

On our way to see the whales onthat beautiful sunny day, I grew more and more excited.After a while, we stopped and everyone on the shipstarted to shout because we saw whales.It was wonderful!While we were watching the whales, a guide was giving us information about them. She told us that wesaw only two kinds of whales-50-foot whales(singingwhales) and 70-foot whales(the second largest whaleson the earth).She also said we could easily tell different kinds of whales by their tails(尾巴), since every whale has a different tail,just like people have different fingerprints(指纹).They all have names, and on the trip,we saw“ Salt ” and “ Pepper ” , two whales named by a scientist and a fisherman. They swam together all thetime. Sometimes, whales came so close to the shipthat we thought we could easily touch them.I took twenty-seven photos, which was a really hardjob because they moved so quickly and stayed on thesurface of the ocean just for a short time.

Her father was partAfrican American and part American Indian. Her familywas poor. Bessie had to walk more than six kilometersto go to school.Bessie had to pick cotton and wash clothes to helpearn money for her family. She was able to save a little money and went to college in the state of Oklahoma. She was in college only one year because she did not haveenough money to compete her studies. But during thatyear, she learned about flying. She read about the first flight of the Wright Brothers and the first Americanfemale pilot, Harriet Quimby.When she was 23, Bessie Coleman moved to Chicago, Illinois to live with two of her older brothers. There, she heard stories from pilots who were returning formWorld War ? . She decided she was going to learn howto fly airplanes. But she soon found this to be almost impossible. What flight school would admit a black womanBessie learned that she would have a better chance in Europe. She began to study French at a languageschool in Chicago.Soon after the end of World War ? , Bessie Coleman left for France. She attended the famous flight school, Ecole d ’ Aviation des Freres Caudron. She completedseven months of flight training. Coleman earned her international permit to fly in 1921 and she became thefirst black woman ever to earn an international pilot’s license.Coleman returned to Chicago. She was the only black female pilot in the United States. So her story becamepopular in African American newspapers. She was askedby the Dallas Express newspaper in Texas why she wanted to fly.

He looked at me, shrugged and looked away.I had no idea whether it was his or stolen or whetherhe even knew what a cell phone was or not, but he clearly wanted to be free of it because it clearly troubledhim. ”Billions of people across the world use cell phones. Though cell phones are a wonderful way for communication, they often do the exact opposite.

Bessie had to walk more than six kilometers to go to school.Bessie had to pick cotton and wash clothes to help earn money for her family. She was able to save a little money and went to college in the state of Oklahoma. She was in college only one year because she did not have enough money to compete her studies. But during that year, she learned about flying. She read about the first flight of the Wright Brothers and the first American female pilot, Harriet Quimby.When she was 23, Bessie Coleman moved to Chicago, Illinois to live with two of her older brothers. There, she heard stories from pilots who were returning form World War ?. She decided she was going to learn how to fly airplanes. But she soon found this to be almost impossible. What flight school would admit a black woman? Bessie learned that she would have a better chance in Europe. She began to study French at a language school in Chicago.Soon after the end of World War ?, Bessie Coleman left for France. She attended the famous flight school, Ecole d’Aviation des Freres Caudron. She completed seven months of flight training. Coleman earned her international permit to fly in 1921 and she became the first black woman ever to earn an international pilot’s license.Coleman returned to Chicago. She was the only black female pilot in the United States. So her story became popular in African American newspapers. She was asked by the Dallas Express newspaper in Texas why she wanted to fly.

高中英语必修第三册Unit 3 单元组合练习“阅读理解+完形填空”组合练Ⅰ.阅读理解It’s summer,and school-aged kids are finding all kinds of ways to have fun,from a trip to the pool or playground to playing games with smartphones.As a result,they are also forgetting some of what they learned in school,a phenomenon called “summer slide”.Fortunately,summer slide can be prevented with just a little regular practice of fun.Encourage reading every day.Make a special event out of a trip to the public library,and let your kids pick out whatever interests them.Give your kids a special treat for every book they finish.Help them set up a reading corner in their room that’s quiet,comfortable and free of various electronic distractions.Best of all,give them the gift of your own example as an enthusiastic reader.Another way to make reading fun is to share a poem together.Poems by writers like Dr.Seuss,Shel Silverstein and Maurice Sendak are fun to read aloud,and often have a strong sense of humor that attracts children.Take turns reading them aloud to each other,talk about what they mean,and see if you can memorize your favorites.Then have a contest to see who can write the best poem.Summer is a great time to visit a learning place together.Children’s museums are specially designed to make learning fun and enjoyable for kids and let them practice essential skills.Or just take a walk together on one of our many nature paths,where your children can use their reading skills to learn about the plants,animals and geology around them.And of course,don’t forget the special programs offered by many local public libraries,along with many other learning materials for kids of all ages.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文,介绍了防止“夏季滑坡”的有趣方法。

doctors,Mother told my sister and me the worst.Throughout my childhood,my father had survived many serious medical problems,including a heart attack and cancer.He'd seen the four walls of the hospital room more times than anyone should have to.“Lord,” I prayed,“please save him.We can't live without him.” Dad pulled through.As soon ashe felt better,he told us something amazing about that day in the operating room.“I was scared.I knew I was dying,”he said.“I m oved my head to one side and watched the nurses preparing for the operation.Beyond them I saw a large window which was open.Out of it was a lighted cross.My eyes were fixed upon it.My fears died out.I had the strength to beat the disease and I believed my operation would be successful.The operation started,and then I didn't know anything.”Dad recovered fully and several months later he went to call on a friend at the same hospital.There he looked around for the cross he'd seen.He couldn't find it.He ran into one of the nurses who had taken care of him.“Can I take a quick look at the operating room where I had my operation?” he asked.The room was free so she took him in.My father was very surprised.There were no windows in the room,and the four walls were solid through and through.Why did he see the cross? It was really amazing,but I think he must have had hallucinations (幻觉)at that time.36.After talking with the doctors,the author's mother________.A.thought her husband would probably dieB.rushed to the operating roomC.encouraged the author to stay positiveD.didn't know what to do at all37.From the passage we learn that the author's father________.A.always had bad luckB.had many good friendsC.often

gave him confidenceC.his family members encouraged himD.he had recovered from many diseases39.After recovery,the author's father went to the hospital mainly to ________.A.see the crossB.talk with the nurseC.see the doctorD.visit his friendBThis is the story of my dog called Shandy.He was my favorite pet and he was very lively.His main passion in life was to be taken for a long walk,ending with a big run out in his favorite park.I would try to take him on this walk every day,weather permitting.The park itself was about three miles away from our house.To reach the park we had to cross a number of busy roads,and he would never pull or misbehave.He knew where we were heading and seemingly did not want to risk being taken home before he reached his dream destination.But because of my work I had to rent a flat near the coast in Devon.It was nearly a hundred miles away from my home.This obviously meant I was no longer in the position to take Shandy on his walk.I spoke to my parents,who comforted me that they would continue to take him on the walks.Two weeks after I had left,I had a phone call from my mother.She was panicking(惊慌),saying that Shandy had managed to escape from the back garden and that she could not find him.She insisted that she had been looking for hours butthat there had been no sign of him.I was quite worried and thought about where he might have gone,“Have you been taking him on his walks to the park every day?”I asked.She replied,“Most days.”I asked her to try at the park.“He would not be there;it's miles away,”she said.I again asked her to try there because running in the park was his habit.Luckily he was there quite happily sniffing(闻) around,unaware of the panic(恐慌) he had caused.40.The author left the dog home because ________.A.his dog didn't want to go with himB.Devon didn't have a parkC.it was not convenient for him to take his dogD.he feared that his mother would feel lonely41.From the mother's answer on the phone,we can infer that ________.A.she wanted to joke with her sonB.she didn't want to look for the dogC.she was very tired of the dogD.she wasn't as familiar with the dog as her son42.The dog went to the park ________.A.to

temper.B.Shandy was heartbroken and was too sad to go home.C.Shandy could not come back if the author's mother didn't find him.D.Though the park was a little far away from home,theauthor and Shandy went to the park every day if the weather permitted.CA holiday is any day when people lay aside their ordinary duties and cares.The word comes from Old English.At first,holidays honored some holy events or persons.People in Great Britain and other countries speak of holidays as Americans speak of vacations.Every nation has its special holidays.China observes_New Year's Day (January 1),May Day and National Day as legal (法定的) holidays,as it was on Oct.1,1949 that People's Republic of China was founded.The Chinese have long celebrated the Chinese lunar year.In the United States,congress has declared several as legal days such as New Year's Day (January 1),Martin Luther King,Jr.'s Birthday,Washington's Birthday,Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day and so on.Some holidays celebrate special events in the development of a country,such as Greece's Independence Day,Italy's Liberation Day and India's Independence Day.In the United States,banks and schools usually close on a legal holiday.When such a holiday falls on Sunday,the following Monday is usually observed.Schools and organizations often observe days known as traditional holidays,although schools and business do not close then.Those holidays include Valentine's Day and Halloween.44.Which of the following holidays has nothing to do with a country's development?A.China's National Day.B.Valentine's Day.C.Italy's

________.A.praisesB.spendsC.celebratesD.cares47.If a legal holiday falls on Sunday,people usually celebrate on ________.A.SundayB.the following SundayC.the following MondayD.the following TuesdayDEverything we know about the world comes to us through our senses.Traditionally,we were thought to have just five of them-sight,hearing,touch,smell,and taste.Although we pay little attention to them,each of these senses is precious and almost irreplaceable-as we discover,to our sorrow,if we lose one.People usually fear blindness above all other disabilities.Yet deafness can be an even more severe handicap,especially in early life,when children learn language.This is why Helen Keller's achievements were so extraordinary.As a result of an illness at the age of 19 months,she lost both sight and hearing and sank into a totally dark,silent world.She was rescued from this terrible separation by herteacher,Anne Sullivan,who managed to explain,by tapping signs into the little girl's palm,that things have names,that letters make up words,and that these can be used to express wants or ideas.Helen Keller later grew into a writer and a wellknown advocate for the handicapped.Her remarkable development owed a great deal to her determination,her teacher,and her family.But it also showed that when a sense(or two,in Helen Keller's case)is missing,another sense(in her case,touch) may be trained to make up for the loss,at least in part.Our nervous system reacts only to a selected range of wavelengths,vibrations,or other properties.It is limited by our genes,as well as our previous experience and our present state of attention.What draws our attention,in many cases,is change.Our senses are finely adjusted to change.Stationary or unchanging objects become part of the scenery and are mostly ual sounds become background noise,mostly unheard.The feel of a sweater against our skin is soon unnoticed.If something in the environment changes,we need to take notice because it might mean danger—or opportunity.Suppose an insect lands on your leg,instantly the touch receptors on the affected leg fire a message that travels up to your brain.There it crosses into the opposite hemisphere(the right hemisphere of the brain controls the left side of the body,and vice versa)to alert brain cells at a particular spot on a sensory map of the body.48.The author refers to Helen Keller in order to ________.A.prove deafness is a more severe handicap thanothersB.encourage deaf people to learn from herC.show it is important to learn language in earlylifeD.suggest hearing is precious and irreplaceable49.Which of the following will draw our attention according to the passage?A.A sweater against your skin when you are working.B.Noise of the air conditioner when you are doing your homework.C.A sudden quake of the room.D.A sleeping cat in your sofa.50.The underlined word “stationary” in Paragraph 6 means ________.A.changingB.stillC.activeD.quiet。

He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events. The last time I was there he introduced me by sayi ng: “I want to tell you a story. It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of a mobile horse trainer who would go from stable to stable, race track to race track, farm to farm and ranch to ranch, training horses. As a result, the boy's high school career was continually interrupted. When he was a senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.”“That night he wrote a sevenpage paper describing his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great detail and he even drew a picture of a 200-acre ranch with much information of all the buildings, the stables and the track. Then he drew a detailed floor plan for a 4,000squarefoot house that would sit on a 200acre dream ranch.”“He put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that read, ‘See me after class.’”“The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, ‘Why did I receive an F?’ The teacher said, ‘This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. You have no money. You come from a mobile family. You have no resources. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for the original breeding stock(种马) and later you'll have to pay a large amount of money. There's no way you could ever do it.’ Then the teacher added, ‘If you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.’”“The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, ‘Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very important decision for you.’Finally, after a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no changes at all. He stated, ‘You can keep the F and I'll keep my dream.’”Monty then turned to the assembled group and said, “I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4,000squarefoot house in the middle of my 200acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper on the wall.” He added,“The best part of the story is that two years ago that same school teacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week. When the teacher was leaving, he said, ‘Look, Monty, I'm sorry now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream stealer. During those years I stole a lot of kids' dreams. Fortunately you had strong determination not to give up on yours.’”“Don't let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what,”Monty at last concluded.1. From the teacher's point of view, the real reason why the boy got an F is that ________.A. the boy's family was mobileB. the paper was not well organizedC. his dream was not practicableD. he could not afford to buy a horse ranch2. Why was the boy's schooling continually interrupted?A. He had to help his father to train horses.B. He had to travel along with his father from place to place.C. His father devoted all his time to training horses.D. They lived too far away from the school.3. What is the turning point in Monty's success story?A. He wrote about his dream in the school paper.B. He received his paper back.C. He turned to his father.D. He put up the school paper on the wall.4. What did the teacher mean by saying “he was a dream stealer”?A. He succeeded in stealing his students' dreams.B. The dreams his students had were usually unrealistic.C. He failed to help his students realize their dreams.D. He discouraged his students from keeping their dreams.一、1~5ABADD1. A解析:句意:我们的政府现在非常重视教育,这才使很多人接受到良好的教育。
牛津版高一英语必修3Unit3练习试题及答案(2)
⽜津版⾼⼀英语必修3Unit 3练习试题及答案(2) Ⅲ.阅读理解(共15⼩题;每⼩题2分,满分30分) A It's pretty much common knowledge that Easter is a Christian celebration of Christ's rising.Where did the colored eggs, cute little bunnies, baby chicks, leg of lamb dinners,and lilies come from?They are all symbols of rebirth and the lamb was a traditional religious sacrifice(祭品). Easter falls in the spring, the yearly time of rebirth,when the earth makes good itself after a long,cold winter.The word Easter comes to us from the Norsemen's Eostur, Eastar,Ostara, and Ostar, and the goddess Eostre, all of which involve the season of the growing sun and new birth.The Easter Bunny arose originally as a symbol of fertility (多产), due to the rapid reproduction habits of the hare and rabbit. The ancient Egyptians, Persians, Phoenicians, and Hindus all believed the world began with a large egg,and thus the egg as a symbol of new life has been a long time. The details may be different, but most cultures around the world use the egg as a symbol of new life and rebirth.A system of signs in the household accounts of Edward I of England showed an expense of eighteen pence for 450 eggs to be goldleafed and colored for Easter gifts.The first book to mention Easter eggs by name was written five hundred years ago.Yet,a North African tribe that had become Christian much earlier in time had a custom of coloring eggs at Easter.Long hard winters often meant little food,and a fresh egg for Easter was quite a ter,Christians give up eating meat during the Lenten season before Easter.Easter was the first chance to enjoy eggs and meat after the_long_abstinence. Some European children go from house to house begging for Easter eggs, much like Halloween trickortreaters.Called paceegging, it comes from the old word for Easter, Pasch.Many old cultures also considered the egg to be great healing powers.It is interesting to note that eggs play almost no part in the Easter celebrations of Mexico, South America, and Native American Indian cultures.Eggrolling contests are a symbolic practice of the rolling away of the stone from Christ's tomb.The decoration of small leafbarren branches as Easter egg trees has become a popular custom in the United States since the 1990s. 36.People celebrate Easter in spring because ________. A.it is a time of rebirth B.it is warm C.it is a season of power D.it is a season of little food 37.The underlined part “the long abstinence” in Paragraph 4 is likely to mean ________. A.eating meat for a long time B.refusing to eat meat for a long time C.rest for a long time D.the long celebration 38.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE? A.In all the Easter celebrations, eggs play an important part. B.When celebrating Halloween, children beg for eggs from door to door. C.Most cultures use the egg as a symbol of new life. D.The first book to mention Easter eggs by name was written four hundred years ago. 39.The best title of the passage should be ________. A.Origin of Easter food B.Easter egg history C.Easter food D.Celebration of Easter B It was harvest time, and several farm hands were working for $10 an hour.But they were not common laborers(劳⼯).They were students who had just graduated from colleges.Mr.KraussMalett said he became interested in farming after working in a restaurant and seeing how much food was wasted.They had been in the fields at Hearty Roots Community Farm in the Hudson Valley since 7 a.m.They all said they could not imagine doing any other job.“Farming attracts me, and probably other people, because it's simple work outdoors,” Mr.Bobman said.“It doesn't feel like you're a part of an oppressive (压抑的) company.” For decades, the number of farmers has been decreasing, and farming has often been seen as a backbreaking (⾟苦的)job.But the recent research showed a 4 % increase in the number of farms, the first increase since 1920, and some college graduates are joining in the return to the land. Jordan Schmidt, a manager at Hearty Roots Community Farm, studied environmental science at Wesleyan.Ms.Schmidt did not have so much as a garden growing up, but in college, she worked at a studentrun farm and fell in love with agriculture(农业).So she gave up her scientific research and moved onto a farm in Pennsylvania after graduating.This is her third season at Hearty Roots Community Farm. “Most people who work for me are here for one season and then move onto other farms, so that's actually the biggest challenge,” said Ben Shute, who owns Hearty Roots Community Farm with his wife, Lindsey.“Every year we are busy training new people.But it is worth having such people.A lot of young people want to farm for themselves, so they are motivated(有积极性的)to learn quickly.” On the East End of Long Island, Sean Frazier and other four people who are recent college graduates in their mid20s, work on Quail Hillfarm in Amagansett and have become close friends.Asked if he felt he was missing out on (失去……机会) the city lifestyle, Mr.Frazier replied, “I much more feel the opposite.It would just really bother me to feel like I was inside all day and I was just missing out on everything that happened.” 40.When working in the fields, the college graduates ______. A.were low p aid B.felt free from pressure C.became more interested in farming D.thought their hard work was wasted 41.By mentioning college graduates in the return to the land, the author wants to tell us ________. A.agriculture has been paid more attention to B.it is much easier to make a living on a farm C.more farmers don't like to do farm work D.something is wrong with American agriculture 42.Why did Jordan Schmidt give up her scientific research? A.Because she wanted to be a farm manager. B.Because she moved onto a farm after graduating. C.Because she wanted to study environmental science. D.Because she fell in love with agriculture on a student r un farm. 43.From what Mr.Shute said, we can infer that ________. A.he was fond of training new college graduates B.college graduates shouldn't often move onto other farms C.he spoke highly of college graduates working on his farm D.it was a great challenge for college graduates to do farm work C The city of Pompeii was once part of the largest and most powerful empire the world had ever seen.Behind this city was Vesuvius, a mountain that had been formed by an old volcano.It sometimes trembled as underground gases caused earth tremors(地震)which shook buildings.The people were sometimes alarmed, but never thought there was any real danger in being close to the volcano. Then one day in the year 79, many dogs and farm animals began to act strangely.More tremors began.Unusual rumbling noises came from higher up the mountain until there was a loud explosion.The top of the volcano blew off-showering the city with smoke, hot stones and ashes.A tongue of fire appeared out of the crater(⽕⼭⼝) which had now formed at the peak(顶峰). The hot air and debris (碎⽚) continued to rain down.At first the people locked their doors and windows, hoping that this would only last a short while.They went into cellars (地下室)and underground passages to avoid the poisonous gases that filtered through cracks and openings.But, soon they were choking to death as they gasped for fresh air.Some tried to escape by running away, but the streets became blocked with loaded carts that had overturned, and piles of dead and dying people. In a short while all the houses were totally covered by the debris which piled up over the rooftops.The city lay buried.The volcano subsided and the people gradually forgot about the city and those who lay buried under the ashes.Over the years, winds carried soil over the top and gradually trees and grass grew over where all the streets and buildings lay meters below.The people farmed the land around Vesuvius, which remained dormant(休眠)for hundreds of years. It was not until around 1860 that archaeologists, interested in finding the remains of the buried city Pompeii, started digging.It has taken many years for most of the city to be uncovered.Today you can walk along the paved(铺设好的) streets and see the marks made by wheels of chariots and carts.You can enter many of the houses and shops which are well preserved.There is a museum in which all kinds of possessions are housed.They include tools, cooking utensils (器具), furniture and clothing. 44.Which was the sign of the coming volcano in Pompeii? A.The forming of the crater. B.The strange action of animals. C.Loud noise from under the ground. D.The falling of hot stones and ashes. 45.People went into their cellars because ________. A.they could run away from there B.no poisonous gases could enter there C.they thought the explosion wouldn't last long D.other places were blocked by the hot stone and ashes 46.The underlined word “subsided” in the fourth paragraph means ________. A.disappeared suddenly after explosion B.became quiet after being violent st for some time and disappear slowly D.become active and explode sometimes D When people talk about a “slow boat to China”, they usually mean that something is taking a very long time.The term is often used in reference to movements of people or goods, as in “my package is taking so long to arrive;it must be on a slow boat to China”.This idiom is most commonly used in American English. The origins of the term appear to lie in the game of poker, The player who lost at a slow and steady pace was often referred to as a “slow boat to China”.Therefore the patient player achieved his winnings slowly and steadily.In a way the loser's plight (困境) was beneficial for the winning poker player. In 1948, Frank Loesser used the idiom in a slightly different way in his song “On a Slow Boat to China”.He used it in a romantic sense, referring to the idea of being so in love with someone that you wouldwant to take the person on a slow boat to China to spend as much time with him or her as possible.Both of these meanings referred to the fact that shipping something to China took a long time, and it would have taken even longer to cross the Pacific on a slow boat. People continue to use this term to refer to long trips, or to suggest that they have a great deal of time to do something.For example, one might say,“We can sit and talk as long as you like, because we might as well be on a slow boat to China.” As a matter of fact, the term isn't used as much in the romantic sense anymore, because the famous song has fallen out of favor. 47.Which of the following statements about “on a slow boat to China” is NOT true? A.It's an idiom. B.It's the name of a song. C.It is commonly used in British English. D.It refers to an unexpected long slow voyage. 48.A poker player who is referred to as “a slow boat to China”is someone ________. A.who keeps losing money B.who plays poker well by cheating C.who likes playing poker on a boat D.who dislikes playing poker very much 49.We can infer from the passage that in American people's eyes,ancient China is ________. A.amazing and easy to arrive in B.far away and hard to arrive in C.strange and hard to understand D.uncultured and easy to control 50.Talking about “a slow boat to China” now, people may mean ________. A.they are true fans of classic songs B.they have difficulty in doing something C.they are involved in something romantic D.they will spend a long time achieving their goals Ⅳ.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。

There, she made several revolutionary discoveries that made her one of the greatest field scientists of the 20th century.Born in London in 1934, the expectations for Jane were standard for the time: a marriage to a nice man, followed by a few children. Fortunately, her mother never discouraged her interest: animals and the natural world. Once her mother discovered that little Jane had brought a handful of worms(幼虫) to bed; rather than screaming, she explained that her new little friends needed the soil to live, and together, they took them back to the garden.Jane was a bookworm who admired Doctor Dolittle and loved the Tarzan novels. Reading did its usually quiet but life-changing thing: Jane developed a dream to go to Africa and live among the wild animals.Jane realized her dream on July 14, 1960 when she arrived at Gombe Stream Game Reserve to study the chimps. However, for two months, the chimps escaped when they heard her coming. The only thing she saw was the back of a chimp, running away from her.“The more I thought of the task I had set myself, the more discouraged I became,” Jane wrote in her first book, In the Shadow of Man.Eventually, she became familiar with a male chimp and his big family. She observed them kiss, hug, pat each other on the back, and shake their fingers at each other. She watched them act very human-like.One day, moving quietly through the jungle, Jane saw the male chimp sit beside a large termite mound (白蚁土堆). He kept taking small branches from trees and putting them in the holes to fish the ants.In any case, Jane’s discovery became the talk of the scientific world. Harvard’s Stephen Jay Gould observed, “We must now re-think what the words ‘tool’and ‘man’mean or accept chimps as humans.”()1.What did Jane’s mother do when she found the worms on the bed?A.She studied them carefully.B.She shouted at her daughter.C.She threw them into the garden.D.She explained they liked the soil.()2.Which is the major reason that made Jane dream to work in the wild?A.Doctor Dolittle’s invitation.B.Her interest in chimps.C.The reading in her childhood.D.Her mother’s encouragement.()3.How did Jane feel during the first two months in Africa?A.Lonely.B.Frightened.C.Hopeless.D.Content.()4.What did Stephen Jay Gould’s words imply?A.Chimps should be accepted as humans.B.Jane’s discovery is of great importance.C.Only human beings know how to make use of tools.D.The scientists should confirm the meaning of the words.Ⅲ.完形填空It happened on a rainy Saturday morning last month. My wife Catherine and I were 1 along what some people called moose (麋鹿) alley. It was so 2 that there were few cars on the road. 3, something happened. A moose jumped out across our path. I had been driving for years and was 4 at driving. In order to 5 knocking into the moose, I made a quick 6 to the other lane. If I had not done that, the moose might have been killed, and my wife and I might have got injured, too. A few seconds later, when I 7 and looked back in my rear view mirror, the moose was getting up and then ran into the bush. Shaken but 8, we both looked at each other with a surprised expression.From then on, I often thought about the relationship between humans and 9. We know that animal species have appeared and disappeared 10 since life began on the Earth. This is a(n) 11 phenomenon (现象). However, animal species have been decreasing at a much faster rate for about a century now 12 human factors such as pollution.Certain philosophers and scientists keep repeating that if we don’t save animals, how we will be able to save ourselves. A better 13 of animals gives us a better understanding of our own species. The will to protect animals and nature in general 14 the value of a society. And all animals play roles in nature and have a right to 15.

the colored eggs, cute little bunnies, baby chicks, leg of lamb dinners,and lilies come from?They are all symbols of rebirth and the lamb was a traditional religious sacrifice(祭品).Easter falls in the spring, the yearly time of rebirth,when the earth makes good itself after a long,cold winter.The word Easter comes to us from the Norsemen's Eostur, Eastar,Ostara, and Ostar, and the goddess Eostre, all of which involve the season of the growing sun and new birth.The Easter Bunny arose originally as a symbol of fertility (多产), due to the rapid reproduction habits of the hare and rabbit.The ancient Egyptians, Persians, Phoenicians, and Hindus all believed the world began with a large egg,and thus the egg as a symbol of new life has been a long time.The details may be different, but most cultures around the world use the egg as a symbol of new life and rebirth.A system of signs in the household accounts of Edward I of England showed an expense of eighteen pence for 450 eggs to be gold-leafed and colored for Easter gifts.The first book to mention Easter eggs by name was written five hundred years ago.Yet,a North African tribe that had become Christian much earlier in time had a custom of coloring eggs at Easter.Long hard winters often meant little food,and a fresh egg for Easter was quite a ter,Christians give up eating meat during the Lenten season before Easter.Easter was the first chance to enjoy eggs and meat after the_long_abstinence.Some European children go from house to house beggingfor Easter eggs, much like Halloween trickortreaters.Called pace-egging, it comes from the old word for Easter, Pasch.Many old cultures also considered the egg to be great healing powers.It is interesting to note that eggs play almost no part in the Easter celebrations of Mexico, South America, and Native American Indian cultures.Eggrolling contests are a symbolic practice of the rolling away of the stone from Christ's tomb.The decoration of small leafbarren branches as Easter egg trees has become a popular custom in the United States since the 1990s.36.People celebrate Easter in spring because ________.A.it is a time of rebirthB.it is warmC.it is a season of powerD.it is a season of little food37.The underlined part “the long abstinence” in Paragraph4 is likely to mean ________.A.eating meat for a long timeB.refusing to eat meat for a long timeC.rest for a long timeD.the long celebration38.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.In all the Easter celebrations, eggs play an important part.B.When celebrating Halloween, children beg for eggs from door to door.C.Most cultures use the egg as a symbol of new life.D.The first book to mention Easter eggs by name was written four hundred years ago.39.The best title of the passage should be ________.A.Origin of Easter foodB.Easter egg historyC.Easter foodD.Celebration of EasterBIt was harvest time, and several farm hands were working for $10 an hour.But they were not common laborers(劳工).They were students who had just graduated from colleges.Mr.KraussMalett said he became interested in farming after working in a restaurant and seeing how much food was wasted.They had been in the fields at Hearty Roots Community Farm in the Hudson Valley since 7 a.m.They all said they could not imagine doing any other job.“Farming attracts me, and probably other people, because it's simple work outdoors,” Mr.Bobman said.“It doesn't feel like you're a part of an oppressive (压抑的) company.”For decades, the number of farmers has been decreasing, and farming has often been seen as a backbreaking (辛苦的)job.But the recent research showed a 4 % increase in the number of farms, the first increase since 1920, and some college graduates are joining in the return to the land.Jordan Schmidt, a manager at Hearty Roots Community Farm, studied environmental science at Wesleyan.Ms.Schmidt did not have so much as a garden growing up, but in college, she worked at a studentrun farm and fell in love with agriculture(农业).So she gave up her scientific research and moved onto a farm in Pennsylvania after graduating.This is her third season at Hearty Roots Community Farm.“Most people who work for me are here for one season and then move onto other farms, so that's actually the biggest challenge,” said Ben Shute, who owns Hearty Roots Community Farm with his wife, Lindsey.“Every year we are busy training new people.But it is worth having such people.A lot ofyoung people want to farm for themselves, so they are motivated(有积极性的)to learn quickly.”On the East End of Long Island, Sean Frazier and other four people who are recent college graduates in their mid20s, work on Quail Hillfarm in Amagansett and have become close friends.Asked if he felt he was missing out on (失去……机会) the city lifestyle, M r.Frazier replied, “I much more feel the opposite.It would just really bother me to feel like I was inside all day and I was just missing out on everything that happened.”40.When working in the fields, the college graduates______.A.were lowpaidB.felt free from pressureC.became more interested in farmingD.thought their hard work was wasted41.By mentioning college graduates in the return to the land, the author wants to tell us ________.A.agriculture has been paid more attention toB.it is much easier to make a living on a farmC.more farmers don't like to do farm workD.something is wrong with American agriculture42.Why did Jordan Schmidt give up her scientific research?A.Because she wanted to be a farm manager.B.Because she moved onto a farm after graduating.C.Because she wanted to study environmental science.D.Because she fell in love with agriculture on a studentrun farm.43.From what Mr.Shute said, we can infer that ________.A.he was fond of training new college graduatesB.college graduates shouldn't often move onto otherfarmsC.he spoke highly of college graduates working on his farmD.it was a great challenge for college graduates to do farm workCThe city of Pompeii was once part of the largest and most powerful empire the world had ever seen.Behind this city was Vesuvius, a mountain that had been formed by an old volcano.It sometimes trembled as underground gases caused earth tremors(地震)which shook buildings.The people were sometimes alarmed, but never thought there was any real danger in being close to the volcano.Then one day in the year 79, many dogs and farm animals began to act strangely.More tremors began.Unusual rumbling noises came from higher up the mountain until there was a loud explosion.The top of the volcano blew off-showering the city with smoke, hot stones and ashes.A tongue of fire appeared out of the crater(火山口) which had now formed at the peak(顶峰).The hot air and debris (碎片) continued to rain down.At first the people locked their doors and windows, hoping that this would only last a short while.They went into cellars (地下室)and underground passages to avoid the poisonous gases that filtered through cracks and openings.But, soon they were choking to death as they gasped for fresh air.Some tried to escape by running away, but the streets became blocked with loaded carts that had overturned, and piles of dead and dying people.In a short while all the houses were totally covered by the debris which piled up over the rooftops.The city lay buried.The volcano subsided and the people gradually forgot about the city and those who lay buried under the ashes.Over the years, windscarried soil over the top and gradually trees and grass grew over where all the streets and buildings lay meters below.The people farmed the land around Vesuvius, which remained dormant(休眠)for hundreds of years.It was not until around 1860 that archaeologists, interested in finding the remains of the buried city Pompeii, started digging.It has taken many years for most of the city to be uncovered.Today you can walk along the paved(铺设好的) streets and see the marks made by wheels of chariots and carts.You can enter many of the houses and shops which are well preserved.There is a museum in which all kinds of possessions are housed.They include tools, cooking utensils (器具), furniture and clothing.44.Which was the sign of the coming volcano in Pompeii?A.The forming of the crater.B.The strange action of animals.C.Loud noise from under the ground.D.The falling of hot stones and ashes.45.People went into their cellars because ________.A.they could run away from thereB.no poisonous gases could enter thereC.they thought the explosion wouldn't last longD.other places were blocked by the hot stone and ashes46.The underlined word “subsided” in the fourth paragraph means ________.A.disappeared suddenly after explosionB.became quiet after being violentst for some time and disappear slowlyD.become active and explode sometimesDWhen people talk about a “slow boat to China”,they usually mean that something is taking a very long time.The term is often used in reference to movements of people or goods, as in “my package is taking so long to arrive;it must be on a slow boat to China”.This idiom is most commonly used in American English.The origins of the term appear to lie in the game of poker, The player who lost at a slow and steady pace was often referred to as a “slow boat to China”.Therefore the patient player achieved his winnings slowly and steadily.In a way the loser's plight (困境) was beneficial for the winning poker player.In 1948, Frank Loesser used the idiom in a slightly different way in his song “On a Slow Boat to China”.He used it in a romantic sense, referring to the idea of being so in love with someone that you would want to take the person on a slow boat to China to spend as much time with him or her as possible.Both of these meanings referred to the fact that shipping something to China took a long time, and it would have taken even longer to cross the Pacific on a slow boat.People continue to use this term to refer to long trips, or to suggest that they have a great deal of time to do something.For example, one might say,“We can sit and talk as long as you like, because we might as well be on a slow boat to China.” As a matter of fact, the term isn't used as much in the romantic sense anymore, because the famous song has fallen out of favor.47.Which of the following statements about “on a slow boat to China” is NOT true?A.It's an idiom.B.It's the name of a song.C.It is commonly used in British English.D.It refers to an unexpected long slow voyage.48.A poker player who is referred to as “a slow boat to China”is someone ________.A.who keeps losing moneyB.who plays poker well by cheatingC.who likes playing poker on a boatD.who dislikes playing poker very much49.We can infer from the passage that in American people's eyes,ancient China is ________.A.amazing and easy to arrive inB.far away and hard to arrive inC.strange and hard to understandD.uncultured and easy to control50.Talking about “a slow boat to China” now, people may mean ________.A.they are true fans of classic songsB.they have difficulty in doing somethingC.they are involved in something romanticD.they will spend a long time achieving their goals。

Many people believe everything or almost everything they read in newspapers or hear on radio. A few years ago I 36 a story about a husband and wife who made a 37 mistake. They had gone shopping and had taken their small baby 38 with them. After they had finished their shopping, they returned to their car to go home.39 they reached their car, they put the baby in the plastic baby carrier that 40 rode in for safety. The couple then 41 in their car toward home. After they had driven a few miles, they 42 the back seat to see how the baby was. To their surprise, the baby was not there. According to the 43 , the couple had put the plastic seat and the baby on the top of the car but had 44 to put him inside the car. They had driven away with the baby on the top of the car.The couple drove back 45 the store but did not find the baby. They called the police, and the police said that they 46 the baby and that the baby was 47 . The baby had fallen from the top of the car but had been 48 by his plastic seat. The 49 couple took their baby home and were always careful after that.There was one thing 50 with the story. It was not true. Stories such as this one are often 51 in newspapers and on radio and television. Because they are read and heard 52 that usually report the truth, many people believe them.

( A )Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up.As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.As he got closer he called out, “Good morning! What are you doing?” The young man paused, looked up and replied, “Throwing starfish in the ocean.” “I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?”“The sun is up and the tide is going out. And if I don’t throw them in, they’ll die.”“But, young man, don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it. You can’t possibly make a difference!”The young man listened politely. Then he bent down, picked another starfish, and threw it into the sea, past the breaking waves and said, “It made a difference for that one.”There is something very special in each and every one of us. We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference. And if we can know that gift, we will gain through the strength of our visions the power to shape the future.We must each find our starfish. And if we throw our starfish wisely and well, the world will be better.56. One day, the wise man saw the young man ______.A. dancing along the beachB. walking with a dancerC. picking up starfish for saleD. trying to save as many starfish as possible57. Near the end of the passage, “something very special” refers to ______.A. the gifts from friendsB. the strength of making decisionC. our own starfishD. the ab ility of shaping one’s own future58. From the last two paragraphs, we can learn that ______.A. the wise man realized something new and importantB. the wise man thought it was foolish of the young man to throw starfish in theoceanC. the young man had the ability to make a differenceD. it is necessary for us to save starfish on the beach59. The writer told this story in order to show us ______.A. how and where we can write a good articleB. everyone can do something for the futureC. wise men are sometimes stupidD. young people are actually wiser than old people( B )Have you ever heard of a shamrock? It’s not a rock, it’s a kind of green plant. It’s a symbol of Ireland. Finding one with four leaves brings you good luck..Chinese can now visit Ireland and see shamrocks for themselves. The two countries’ governments agreed on this last week.Ireland is on an island in northwestern Europe, next to England. Dublin, the capital, is its largest city.When people think of Ireland, they think of green plants all over it. In fact, one name for Ireland is the “Emerald Isle(翡翠岛)”.There are lots of old castles on Ireland’s hills, and people tell old stories about them.Ireland is also famous for its folk music and art. The country is known for its harp(竖琴) and flute(长笛) music. Ireland also has some fun dances.Lots of Irish moved to America around 1850 because they were starving. The Irish eat lots of potatoes. But at that time potatoes there were dying.Irish around the world celebrate St. Patrick’s Day every March 17. St. Patrick taught the Irish about Christianity(基督教). People have parades(游行), sing, dance, eat Irish food and drink beer.60. Which of the following can stand for Ireland?A. EmeraldB. ShamrockC. HarpD. Christianity61. Why is I reland also called “Emerald Isle”?A. Because the Irish like green very much.B. Because there’re many emeralds in the island.C. Because the island is covered with green plants.D. Because the Irish are green people.62. Which of the following is Ireland NOT famous for?A. MusicB. ArtC. DanceD. Sports63. Lots of Irish people ______ to move to America around 1850.A. were delightedB. were willingC. were forcedD. were lucky( C )Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.Do you know what a ‘territory’ is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims (声称) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢)season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what w e call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.You can see that birds have a language of their own.

If people go “Dutch treat”, or simply “go Dutch”, it means that they will share the expenses of a social engagement.There are many other “Dutch”expressions in English, many of which were invented in Britain in the seventeenth century, when the Dutch and the English were commercial and military rivals(对手). The British used “Dutch” to refer to something bad, cheap and shameful. A “Dutch bargain” at that time was an uneven, one-sided deal;“Dutch reckoning”was an unitemized account; and “Dutch widow”was slang for prostitute. Later centuries brought in “Dutch courage”, for bravery induced by drink; “Dutch concert”, for discordant music; “Dutch nightingale”, meaning a frog; and “double Dutch”, for incomprehensible language, or unintelligible talk.Some of the expressions are still in use today, but some are not. In fact, in American English, some “Dutch”expressions have nothing to do with the Dutch, but something with the German. It was probably because of the similar spelling and pronunciation that people made a mistake in distinguishing between “Dutch”and “Deutsch” (the German word for German), when German immigrants came to America in the 1700s. For instance,“the Pennsylvania Dutch” refers to the German descendants , instead of the Dutch descendants, living in Pennsylvania.68.If someone invites you to dinner and says “let’s go Dutch”, he means that ____.A.he’ll invite you to a Dutch restaurantB.he’ll buy your dinnerC.you’ll buy his dinnerD.you are expected to pay your own meal69.Many of the “Dutch ”expressions were invented with derogatory(贬义)sense,because _____.A.the Dutch were underdeveloped peopleB.Britain and Holland were competitors at that timeC.the Dutch had many bad habitsD.the British were superior to the Dutch70.With the information you get from Paragraph 2, make a guess at the meaning of thesentence “You are in Dutch”.
