I found a chained sliding door that was wide enough for me to pass through.Inside, there was a heavy smell of dead mice in the dark. After my eyes adjusted, I noticed a shaft (升降机井) that rose all the way to the top of the barn. On one side was a one-man elevator with a long rope and roller.I stepped onto the platform and gave the rope a drag and the elevator began sliding up the shaft, but stopped halfway. After a brief panic attack, I noticed holes in the wall at regular intervals, forming a ladder. For reasons known only to an 11-year-old, I decided it would be better to go up than down. So, with shaking hands, I began climbing the wall.After what seemed like forever, I reached the top of the shaft. I stood up, dusted myself off and found absolutely nothing of interest. It was just an empty room with a ladder leading up to the roof. I climbed all the way up here for this? Then I noticed a fire extinguisher（灭火器）, which I’d always wanted to shoot off. So this was the chance of a lifetime. I tried it, and much to my surprise, the thing worked! It shot out a thick cloud of powder that in stantly filled the room. I couldn’t breathe. I was going to choke to death, and they’d probably never even find my body.Luckily, I remembered the ladder to the roof. I climbed up, popped the straw roof and saw a bright blue sky.I suddenly realized the dust and powder pouring out of the top could draw attention. So when the dust had settled, I climbed down and slipped out of the chained door. I’m not sure if I was more excited about being alive or about not being caught, but I ran all the way back home.21. When the author got inside the barn, he _______.A. noticed a man on the elevatorB. opened the chained sliding doorC. saw many dead mice in the darkD. found a shaft leading to the top22. After getting out of the chained door, the author might feel _______.A. inspiredB. relievedC. surprisedD. disappointed23.

The genius went to a grammar school when he was only 6 years old and graduated just within 7 months. At the age of 11, he became the youngest student of the Harvard University. He graduated with high scores at the age of 16 and entered Harvard Law School at 18.Gifted with an amazing IQ between 220 and 230, Terence Tao makes it to this list of the people with the highest IQ in the world. Born in Adelaide, Australia in 1975, this genius first displayed his incredible intelligence at a mere age of 2, when he managed to solve basic arithmetic questions on his own. At the age of 16, he graduated with both Master' s and Bachelor' s degrees at the Flinders University. He has been considered as '' Mr. Fix it " by Charles Fefferman, who is a professor of Mathematics at Princeton University, and many other mathematicians want to interest him in their problems.This 31-year-old Japanese-American astrophysicist lands him third in this list. At the age of 12, Christopher Hirata already worked on college-level courses, around the time most of us were just in the 7th grade. At the age of 13, this gifted kid became the youngest American to have ever won the gold medal in the International physics Olympiad.At the age of 16, he was already working with NASA on its project to conquer planet Mars. After he was awarded the Ph. D. at Princeton University, he went back to California Institute of Technology.The next person with very high IQ is Albert Einstein. With an IQ between 160 and 190, Albert Einstein is the genius behind the theory of relativity, which has had great impact on the world of science. He possessed such an amazing ability that after his death, researchers were eager to preserve and make research on his brain in search for clues to his exceptional brilliance, which to this day, has remained a mystery.28. About William, which of the following is true?A. His IQ reached between 220 and 230.B. At the age of 16, he graduated from a grammar school.C. At the age of 6, he graduated with both Master' s and Bachelor' s degrees.D. At the age of 11, he became the youngest student at the Harvard University.29. How many people with remarkable IQ are mentioned in the passage?A. 3B. 4C. 5D. 630. Who once worked on the project to conquer planet Mars?A. WilliamB. Terence TaoC. Christopher HirataD. Albert Einstein31. From the passage we can know that______.A. when William graduated from the Harvard Law School, he got the highest scoresB. at the age of 2, Terence solved basic arithmetic questions on his ownC. Christopher Hirata is a JapaneseD. researchers have found out why Albert Einstein was so brilliant32. What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A. The most gifted college students in the world.B. The most famous people in the world.C. People with the highest IQ ever recorded.D. The most famous inventors.(D)Until last spring, Nia Parker and the other kids in her neighborhood went to school on Bus 59. But as fuel prices rose, the school district needed to find a way to cut its transportation costs. So the school’s busing company redrew its route map, canceling Nia’s bus. Now Nia and her neighbors travel the half mile to school via a “walking school bus”—a group of kids, supervised (监护) by an adult or two, who make the walk together.Many parents are delighted to see their kids walking to school, partly because many did so themselves. According to a 1979 survey, nearly half of school kids walked or biked to school, compared with only 16 percent in 2011. Modern parents have been unwilling to let kids walk to school for fear of traffic, crime or simple bullying, but with organized adult supervision, those concerns have reduced.Schools and busing companies are finding other ways to save. In rural areas where busing is a must, some schools have even chosen four-day school weeks. Busing companies instruct drivers to cancel extra stops from routes and to turn off the engine while idling(挂空挡). They are also using computer software to determine the most fuel-efficient routes, which aren’t always the shortest ones.There could be disadvantages, however, to the busing cutbacks（削减）. If every formerly bused student begins walking to school, it’s an environmental win—but if too many of their parents decide to drive them instead, the carbon footprint can grow. Replacing buses with many more parent-driven cars can also increase safety risks. A 2011 report concluded students are 13 times safer on a school bus than in a passenger car, since buses have fewer accidents and with stand them better due to their size. And some students complain about the long morning hikes, particularly when the route contains a really big hill.33. In regards to walking to school, modern parents seem much concerned with the _____.A. safety of their kidsB. kids’ physical strengthC. time spent on the wayD. changes in the route34. To save money, some schools choose to _____.A. shorten the school weekB. take the shortest routesC. stop using school busesD. use fuel-efficient buses35. Busing cutbacks may lead to _____.A. fewer complaints about long morning hikesB. more students taking public transportationC. an increase in carbon dioxide emissionsD. a decrease in the safety of school buses第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)Although problems are a part of our lives, it certainly doesn’t mean that we let them rule our lives forever.

While driving, drive on the right side of the road. On one-way, multiple lanes(车道) road, the right-most lane would be slowest and left-most lane is fastest.Hand SignalsThough indicators(车的指示灯) are used for the purpose of showing which direction you are going, knowing some hand signals is very important and are usually always asked in a driving test. When you want to turn right, you can put your left hand out of the window and point upward. When you want to make a left turn, you can reach your left arm out of the window and point to the left. If you want to slow down or stop, you can just point downward.School BusesYellow school buses have flashing red l ights and stop signs that reach out from the driver’s side. The drivers use these warning signals when letting pupils on and off. No matter which side of the road you are traveling on, if you come upon a school bus with its lights flashing and a stop sign used, you must stop. It’s the law. Remain stopped until the lights stop flashing or the stop sign is removed.Using the HornUsing horns is not common in America. Actually they are very rarely used. You may use your horn to warn walkers or other drivers of possible trouble or to avoid accidents. Do not use your horn to express anger or complain about other drivers’ mistakes or to try to get a slow driver to move faster.41. If Freddy is asked to go to Florida in the shortest time from Missouri, on which lane in the picture belowshould he drive his car according to Paragraph 1?A. Lane ①.B. Lane ②.C. Lane ③.D. Lane ④.42.

Drivers.BWhat will power your house in the future? Nuclear, wind, or solar power? According to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US, it might be leaves – but man-made ones.Natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy. It is known as photosynthesis (光合作用). Now researchers have found a way to copy this seemingly simple process.The man-made leaf developed by Daniel Nocera and his partners at MIT can be seen as a special chip with catalysts (催化剂). Similar to natural leaves, it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water. The hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell (电池), which uses those two materials to produce electricity.A man-made leaf is not a new idea. The first man-made leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and changeable for practical use. The new leaf, on the contrary, is made of cheap materials, easy to use and highly stable. In laboratory studies, Nocera showed that a man-made leaf prototype (原型) could operate continuously for at least 45 hours without a drop in activity.The wonderful improvements come from Nocera’s recent discovery of several powerful, new, inexpensive catalysts. These catalysts make the energy change inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight. Right now, the new leaf is about 10 times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one. Besides, the machine can run in whatever water is available; that is, it doesn’t need pure water. This is important for some countries that don’t have enough pure water.With the goal to “make each home its own power station” and “giving energy to the poor”, scientists believe that the new machine could be widely used in developing countries, especially in India and rural China.45. What will give power to our house in the future, according to MIT?A. Man-made leaves.B. Nuclear.C. Solar power.D. Wind.46. Which of the following orders correctly shows how the man-made leaf is used to produce electricity?a. man-made leaves split water into hydrogen and oxygenb. the hydrogen and oxygen gases are stored in a fuel cellc. the man-made leaves are put in waterd. the fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricityA. cbad.B. bcad.C. cabd.D. cadb.47. What does the underlined “stable” in the 4th paragraph mean?A. Secure.B. Powerful.C. Unnatural.D. Unchangeable.48. The aim of the scientists at MIT in developing the new man-made leaves is to .A. build up more power stations in the worldB. provide cheaper energy for developing countriesC. offer people in developing countries access to pure waterD. gain a deeper understanding of the photosynthesis processCThe elephant was lying heavily on its side, fast asleep. A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety.That didn't stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.Parbati Barua's father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up -- how to catch wild elephants.Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life. "Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase," she says.But Parbati doesn't catch elephants just for fun. "My work," she says, "is to save man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man." And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. "Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans," she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!49. For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to .A. get long lasting excitementB. keep both man and elephants safeC. send them back to the jungleD. make the angry elephants tame50. Before Parbati studied in a boarding school, .A. she spent her time hunting with her fatherB. she learned how to sing love songsC. she had already been called an elephant princessD. she was taught how to hunt tigers51. Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they fight back because __________.A. they are caught and sent for heavy workB. illegal hunters capture them and kill themC. they are attacked and their land gets limitedD. dogs often bark at them and chase them52. The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in India _________.A. people easily fall victim to elephants' attacksB. the man-elephant relationship is getting worseC. elephant tamers are in short supplyD. dogs are as powerful as elephantsDShe turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall. No way could I have sent her away. No way, notme anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. "We're moving house.” "No space for her any more with the baby coming." "We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present." People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her former owner's. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. "We didn't know what had happened to her," said the woman at the door. "I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared." "She must have tried to come back to them and got lost," added a boy from behind her.I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I've got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I've learnt a good lesson not to judge people.53. In her first few days at the author's house, Goldie .A. felt worriedB. was angryC. ate a littleD. sat by the fire54. Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she .A. saw her puppiesB. heard familiar barkingC. wanted to leave the authorD. found her way to her old home55. The passage is organized in order of .A. timeB. effectivenessC. importanceD. complexity（二）七选五Everyone knows that fish is good for health. 56. But it seems that many people don’t cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult.57 This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.58 F resh fish should smell sweet you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh.59 When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.There are many common methods used to cook fish. 60 First, clean it and season it withyour choice of spices(调料). Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10minutes if it weighs about one pound. (A larger one will take more time.) Then, it’s ready to serve.A. Do not buy it.B. The easiest is to steam it.C. This is how you can do it.D. It just requires a little knowledge.E. The fish will go bad within hours.F. When buying fish, you should first smell it.G.

AHave you ever heard of an old saying? Intelligence is a born ability while goodness is a choice. Gifts are easy—theyre given after all. Choice can be hard.I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2300 percent per year. Id neverseen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and Id been married for a year. I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldnt work since most start-ups dont and I wasnt sure what to expect.MacKenzie told me I should go for it.As a young boy，Id been a garage inventor.Id always wanted to be an inventor，and she wanted me to follow my passion.I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park，listened carefully to me，and finally said，“That sounds like a really good idea，but it would be an even better idea for someone who didnt already have a good job.” That logic made some sense to me，and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision.Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice，but finally，I decided I had to give it a shot.I didnt think Id regret trying and failing.And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.After much consideration，I took the less safe path to follow my passion，and Im proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choice.21.What inspired the author with the idea of building an online bookstore?A. His dream of being an inventor.B. The support of his wife.C. The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.D. Millions of exciting titles.22. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A. The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.B. He would be very excited if he tried it out.C. He would be always having a doubt if he didnt try.D. The decision to not try the online bookstore would terrify him.23. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Cleverness and KindnessB. The Starting of AmazonC. Following My PassionD. We Are What We Choose24. We can know from the passage that_______.A. the boss thought the idea was suitable for the authorB. the author wanted someone else to try the ideaC. the author might not regret if he failed the ideaD. the author might go back to his boss if he failedBWith the development of modern society, human beings are increasingly invading wild animals habitat as well as the wild plants. Nearly a third of the worlds cacti (仙人掌) are facing the threat of extinction, according to a shocking global assessment of the effects.Cacti are an important provider of food and water to desert wildlife ranging from wolves and deer to tortoises, bats and birds, and these fauna spread the plants seeds in return.But the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN)s first worldwide health check of the plants says that they are coming under huge pressure from human activities such as land use changes, commercial and residential developments and shrimp farming. But the paper said the driver of cacti species extinction was the “uncontrolled collection of live plants and private decorating collections, and annual agriculture.”The findings were described as “disturbing” by Inger Anderson, the IUCNs director-general. “They confirm that the scale of the illegal wildlife trade, including the trade in plants is much greater than we had previously thought, and that wildlife illegal trade concerns many more species than the elephants which tend to receive global attention.”Cacti are almost always delicious but unlike most others, they store water in their stems alone, enabling them to survive extreme draughts. The plants can be as small as one centimeter in diameter and grow above 19 meters in height. Well over half of the species are used by humans for display decoration, food or medicine. Almost 1,500 types of cacti were surveyed by the IUCN specialists over a five-year period, mostly in America.Dealing with the illegal trade is a hard task as they can be hidden in suitcases or even socks. While countries such as Peru have made progress in blocking the illegal trade, the IUCN is calling for more strictly carrying out the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (Cites) in the “hotspots of Uruguay, Brazil and Chile. Mexico has made advances but still has work to do, according to Goettsch.25. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?A. What causes cacti species extinctionB. What gives people pressureC. What IUCN has foundD. What farmers have planted26. In Inger Andersons opinion, _____________.A. the findings of the IUCN are not disturbingB. the illegal plant trade is less serious than we had thoughtC. cacti have received much global attentionD. the illegal plant trade threatens lots of wildlife27. Why is it hard to fight against cacti trade?A. Because cacti can be made into socks.B. Because cacti are easy to carry secretly.C. Because many countries carry out Cites strictly.D. Because some countries made advances to trade cacti.CIt is widely acknowledged that nearly every kid might come across some kind of school bullying, however, the age at which kids first fall victim to bullying (欺侮) could influence how strongly they are affected, suggests a new study. And, surprisingly, it is not the youngest kids who are hurt the most in the long term.Bullying can have long-lasting effects, but particularly when it begins in adolescence, the researchers say. People subjected to either verbal ( 口头的)or physical bullying are known to be at greater risk of developing depression, anxiety disorders or to behave violently. But not everyone reacts in this way.Children bullied for the first time before they hit adolescence seem to get over it, but those who are bullied for the first time later on in adolescence seem to become more aggressive or are more likely to turn to drink as a means of coping. These are the conclusions of psychologist Matthew Newman and colleagues from the University of Texas at Austin, US.The team gave questionnaires to nearly 1, 500 college students regarding their experience of physical and psychological bullying before adolescence -- before high school-- and in late adolescence -- at high school. They assessed mood and mental state, judging by signs of anxie-ty or depression, such as sleeplessness. The group was also questioned about how they would react to certain challenges, such as humiliation.People who were bullied all revealed slightly higher levels of stress. But while those bullied earlier in life seemed to respond normally to provocation (煽动), people bullied for the first time late in adolescence are more withdrawn and sensitive to violence.There are also sex differences between those bullied for the first time during adolescence， with females more likely to react aggressively when provoked and males are much more likely to turn to alcohol to escape bad situations.The best solution in all cases was strong social support, whether from friends, family or school. Those with no one to share their problems with suffered the most.So perhaps it is best not to shelter children completely from bullying early on, suggests Newman. “They may get stressed，but unhealthy coping really jumps out when they are bullied for the first time later on. ”28. What determines the degree of bullyings effect on people according to the study?A. The reason why they are bullied.B. The place where they are first bullied.C. The age at which they are first bullied.D. The person who first bullies them.29. What may happen to those first bullied later on in adolescence according to Newman and his colleagues?A. Some are likely to be more aggressive.B. They seem to easily get over the effect of bullying.C. Most of them will respond to bullying normally.D. Most of them are afraid of sharing their problems.30. What does the underlined word “humiliation” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Carrying out an important plan.B. Being made to feel ashamed.C. Trying hard to survive an accident.D. Feeling hopeless in an emergency.31. The sex differences between people bullied for the first time during adolescence are reflected in .A. the support they get from the societyB. the effect bullying has on themC. the way they react to provocationD. the type of bullying they receiveDAccount Manager (Sales)Company Name: Hiap Moh ( H.

Players of board games．B. Kids for self-service banking．C. Parents for online banking．D. Travelers in the zoo．2.Rewards will be paid if ______ ．A. the kids fulfil your created missionsB. your kids get enough locked medalsC. you keep the account balancedD. you approve the request via Kidz APP3.Which of the following animals is related to spending？______A. Rhino．B. Leopard．C. Lion．D. Buffalo．BWhile staring out of the window during a flight，not everyone will think carefully about the question why airplaneshave rounded windows rather than square ones．Over the years，aerospace engineering has made huge steps in airplane technology，meaning planes can carry more passengers and go faster．The planes have also changed shape to increase safety-including the windows．As commercial air travel took off in the mid-20th century，airline companies began to fly at higher altitudes to lower their cost-the air density（密度）is lower up there，creating less drag（阻力）for airplanes．However，higher altitudes came with problems，like the fact human beings can't really survive at 30，000 feet．T o make that possible，the cabin was changed to a cylindrical（圆柱体）shape to support the pressure inside．But at first，plane builders left in the standard square windows and this expansion meant disaster．The deHavillandComet came into fashion in the 1950s．With a closed cabin，it was able to go higher and faster than other aircraft．However，where there's a corner，there's a weak spot．Windows，having four corners，have four potential weak spots，making them likely to crash under stress-such as air pressure．By curving the window，the stress that would eventually break the window corner is distributed and the chance of it breaking is reduced．Rounded shapes are also stronger and resist deformation（变形），and can thus survive the extreme differences in pressure between the inside and outside of the aircraft．Fortunately，designers figured out the lack of design pretty quick．Now we have nice，rounded airplane windows that can resist the pressure of traveling altitude．It gives being able to gaze out of your window to the world from 35，000 feet a whole new outlook，doesn't it？4.Why did airlines aim to fly at higher altitudes？______A. To increase safety of the plane．B. To help the plane to take off．C. To save money for less drag．D. To carry more passengers and go faster．5.What does the underlined words "de Havilland Comet" in Paragraph 2 refer to？______A. A planet．B. A band．C. An aircraft．D. A design．6.Which is the advantage of the rounded window？______A. It reduces the possibility of breaking up．B. It weakens the strength of air pressure．C. It increases the air pressure．D. It helps to survive the extreme weather．7.Where does this text come from？______A. A newspaper on safe driving．B. A magazine on fashion design．C. A website on survival skills．D. A science book on flying．CThe hemlock（铁杉）trees along the Wappinger Creek，New York，look healthy．However，scientist Gary Lovett says the white balls which provide protection for the bugs are created by a tiny insect．It's hard to believe the tiny bug could kill a tree．However，trees can end up with millions and millions of the pests．When there are that many，it ends up killing the tree．The bug from East Asia is slowly killing trees across the USA．The trouble-making bug is just one of many invasive（入侵的）pests that have slipped into the United States．They canhurt other living things in their new home．Many invasive pests arrive on wooden pallets piled inside shipping containers．They support and separate goods，and keep them from sliding around．Invasive pests often tunnel into the pallets．How can we stop pests from riding on pallets？Lovett says new rules are needed．The companies that make pallets don't want more rules．Congress has added an amendment（修正案）in the 2018 Farm Bill to try and prevent this problem．However，Lovett is not hopeful it will make much of a difference．Pallets are checked by inspectors．Many are sprayed with bug-killing pesticide．"I believe in the system，" said Brent McClendon，president of The National Wooden Pallet and Container Association．He also said shipping containers are checked very carefully．Still，each year 13 million containers are shipped to the U．S．Each is full of wooden pallets ．Lovett says："Inspectors can't possibly check everything．All it takes are a few bad pallets ；we should get rid of wooden pallets．" He believes pallets should be made of plastic or eco-composite wood．Eco-composite wood is a mix of wood fiber and plastic．Insects cannot hide into it．One problem is that these choices cost more．They may be worth the extra money，though．Invasive pests cost the U．S．﹩5 billion a year．Trees don't just die in forests．They also die in cities and our yards．Then，they need to be replaced．That costs money，too．8.All the statements are TRUE except that ______ ．A. pesticide has been applied to bug-killingB. invasive pests are native to Wappinger CreekC. invasive pests hide in pallets used in shippingD. the companies making pallets don't want more rules9.What can we infer from the passage？______A. Bugs can be easily spotted by eyes．B. Bugs ruin the shipping goods slowly．C. Bugs won't bother the tree if just in few numbers．D. Bugs cover trees with white soft balls for protection．10.Why does Gary Lovett want to get rid of wooden pallets？______A. Because insects mostly die in them．B. Because plastic pallets are eco-friendly．C. Because they are not worth extra money．D. Because they are the major pest carriers．11.What does the passage mainly talk about？______A. Invasive pests are harming plants in the USA．B. Effective measures have stopped the pest invasion．C. Congress contributes a lot to dealing with invasive pests．D. Ecosystem in the USA is poorly damaged by invasive woods．DHave you ever spent an afternoon in the backyard，maybe grilling or enjoying a basketball game，when suddenly you notice that everything goes quiet？There is an old phrase "calm before the storm"，often used in a situation-a quiet period just before a great activity or excitement．According to our own experience，we know there is actually calm before the storm．But what causes this calm？And is it always calm before the storm？Let's hear what scientists have to say．A period of calm happens in a particular kind of storm，the simplest kind of storm-asingle-cell thunderstorm．In this type of thunderstorm，there is usually only one main updraft，which is warm，damp airand drawn from places near the ground．Storms need warm and damp air as fuel，so they typically draw that air in from surrounding environment．Storms can draw in the air that fit their need from all directions-even from the direction in which the storm is traveling．As the warm，damp air is pulled into a storm system，it leaves a low-pressure vacuum（真空）coming after．The rising air meets the cold dry air that has already existed in the storm clouds，thus the temperature of the warm，damp air drops，and the water vapour（水蒸汽）in it changes into tiny drops that are a precondition of rain．These drops accumulate and build on larger particles like dust，until they grow large enough to form raindrops．This warm，damp air keeps moving upwards，but it becomes cooler and drier during its trip through cloud．When it reaches the top of the cloud，the air gets spit out（被挤出）at the top．This air is sent rolling out over the big thunderclouds．From there，the air goes down．Warm and dry air is relatively stable，and once it covers a region，that air，in turn ，causes the calm before a storm．Most thunderstorms，though，don't start with calm．That's because most are actually groups of storms with complex wind patterns．There's so much air moving up and down storm groups that the calm before the storm never happens．Instead，before the storm，it might be really windy!12.Which best fits the description of a particular kind of storm？______A. A thunderstorm with a single shape．B. A thunderstorm without strong winds．C. A storm with air drawn from every direction．D. A storm fueled by moving air from the ground．13.What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refer to？______A. Cold and dry air．B. Warm and dry air．C. Cold and damp air．D. Warm and damp air．14.Which does the writer most likely agree to？______A. Presence of the calm relies on stable air．B. Not all thunderstorms start with the calm．C. The drier the air is，the bigger the storm will be．D. Storm happens without air moving up and down．15.What is the passage mainly about？______A. Causes and effects of a heavy storm．B. A brief description of a peaceful storm．C. A personal experience of a heavy storm．D. An explanation of the calm before a storm．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）We are surrounded by messages trying to get our attention．Advertisers，politicians and other groups all try to get us to agree with them．(1) ．Propaganda is not always a bad thing ，but it often hides the truth about a topic．It's very similar to advertising，whose goal is to get people to buy something，while propaganda is to change what people believe．Propaganda TechniquesTo create propaganda，a common technique is name-calling．A politician might call someone a traitor or liar，which makes the other person look bad．Another is the trend technique．People want to be on the side in the favor．(2) ．Some propaganda is based on fear．It scares peopleinto choosing a certain side or taking action，which might not be bad ．Anti-smoking campaigns are one example．They may scare people into thinking that if they smoke，they will get cancer．(3) Propaganda is used by many groups，such as businesses，politicians and thegovernment．It is spread through posters，television and radio．The Internet makes it easy to send messages to the whole world．Types of PropagandaPolitical propaganda has been around as long as there have been politicians．(4) ．People have used it for many years．War propaganda began during World War I，more than 100 years ago．To see if propaganda is saying the truth，people need to do extra work．For example，ads might always sound like they're true．But before you believe them，try to think about who created and paid for them．Find out why they did it．(5) ．A．Propaganda TargetsB．Propaganda MediumsC．Another word for this is propagandaD．So most people will agree with those politiciansE．Then，you can decide if they're being honest or notF．However，religious propaganda was actually the first official oneG．People might join someone who claims to be popular or winning16.

on sth ．以及句意可知，difference虽然可以表示影响，但是短语搭配是make a difference to/in ．答案为A．3．D．考查副词及语境理解．句意：但是，我不知道这会对我产生什么样的影响．instead 替代；however然而；therefore因此；regardless不管．根据上文中的no

挑战；insisting坚持；recovering恢复．第二段对John的描述可得知，John是一个垂死患者，所以选struggling，故选C．5．B．考查动词及语境理解．句意：他的心脏正在衰竭，医疗团队正在让他舒适，减轻症状．striking袭击；aging使变老；beating打败；failing衰竭．John已经垂死，所以心脏衰竭，failing可以表示器官衰竭的含义，故选B．6．D．考查动词及语境理解．句意：他的心脏正在衰竭，医疗团队正在让他舒适，减轻症状．comforting安慰；relieving减轻；disappearing消失；decreasing减少．根据上下文，医护人员可以做的只能是让他舒适以及减轻他的症状．decrease侧重大小数量上的减少，语意不符．comfort宾语通常是人．disappear为不及物动词，不带宾语，故选D．7．C．考查名词及语境理解．句意：之前就已经不说话了，但是时不时的醒来，当我们对他说话的时候，他的笑容很美．smile微笑；eyes眼睛；face脸；expression表情．下文中有提到睁开眼睛朝作者微笑，再根据句子的谓语动词was可知答案是smile，8．A．考查名词及语境理解．句意：当我早上到医院的时候，上夜班的同事说John病情恶化，并且陪John走过了生命的最后几个小时．hospital医院；classroom教室；ward 病房；department部门．由后文可知，作者被告知John病情恶化，并且陪John走过了生命的最后几个小时，这一切只能是发生在John的病房里，既ward，故选A．9．B．考查名词及语境理解．句意：当我早上到医院的时候，上夜班的同事说John病情恶化，并且只有生命的最后几个小时．days 天；seconds秒；minutes分钟； hours 小时．后文有提及几个小时后，John便离开了人世，故选B．10．A．考查动词及语境理解．句意：我握着John的手陪他说了六个小时的话．hugged 拥抱；reached达到；held握着，持有；touched触摸．作者是握着John的手陪他说了六个小时的话，故选A．11．C．考查形容词及语境理解．句意：医生按时进入病房，问他是否需要止痛药，但是大多数时候他似乎很平和．peaceful和平的；painful 痛苦的； silent寂静的；anxious

away离开．从后文可知，几分钟后，John就去世了，所以可得知医护人员对他说的话是"放手，安心地离去吧"．let go有放手、放开之意．其余选项均不符合上下文意思，故选C．15．D．考查形容词及语境理解．句意：作为护士看见了不计其数的死亡．priceless无价的；countless无数的；considerate 体贴的；constant持续的．John死后的二十年里，作者作为护士看见了不计其数的死亡，即countless．constant表示动作的持续，不符合文意，故选D．16．C．考查名词及语境理解．句意：我看到护士为了确保临死的患者可以走得安详舒坦，做了很多工作范围之外的事情．expectations期望；ability能力；qualifications合格；exception例外．作者的实习经历讲述了医护人员对患者的关心和照顾，所以此处应该是医护人员帮助患者，做了很多工作范围之外的事情，即超出了工作的预期，故选C．17．D．考查动词及语境理解．句意：我看到护士为了确保临死的患者可以走得安详舒坦，做了很多工作范围之外的事情．pretend 假装；ensure确保；believe相信；assume 假设．医护人员做出超出工作预期的事情是为了确保临死的患者可以走得安详舒坦，故选D．18．B．考查形容词及语境理解．句意：我还记得其他一些病人的脸庞，但是对John依旧记忆犹新． beautiful美丽的； scary恐怖的；pale苍白的； vivid生动的．此处描述的是作者对John的记忆，这么多年过去了，作者对John依旧记忆犹新，John的一切依旧历历在目．所以选vivid表示"生动清晰的"．前文中的beautiful是用来形容John的笑容，放在这里不合适，故选B．19．A．考查动词及语境理解．句意：他和照顾他的专业人员教会了我对待垂死患者的方式是一件非常重要的事情．bringing up抚养；looking for寻找； caring for照顾；cheering up使振奋．由作者对实习经历的描述可知医护人员对患者是进行照顾，即care for，故选A．20．D．考查动词及语境理解．句意：对待垂死患者的方式是一件非常重要的事情．trains 训练；matters重要；influences影响；works工作．作者的实习经历教导了作者：医护人员对待垂死患者的方式是一件非常重要的事情，即matter表示"要紧、重要"，故选D．本文属于叙事说理文，讲述作者当护士的时候，遇见一个叫John 即将死亡的人，护士精心照顾他，使他能够走的安详平静，这也让作者领悟了：对待垂死患者的方式是一件非常重要的事情．近几年高考试题中的完形填空有新的变化，试题所涉及的知识面不断拓宽，综合难度不断提高．做完型填空首先要通读全文，了解大意．一篇完形填空的文章有许多空格，所以，必须先通读一至两遍，才能大概了解文章的内容．千万不要看一句，做一句．其次要逐句分析，前后一致．选择答案时，要考虑整个句子的内容，包括搭配、时态、语法等．答案全填完后，再通读一遍文章，检查是否通顺流畅了，用词得当，意思正确．41.【答案】【小题1】to【小题2】its 【小题3】shows【小题4】are【小题5】where【小题6】creativity 【小题7】being read【小题8】published【小题9】naturally【小题10】has beencommitted【解析】（1）to．介词考查．《见字如面》这档电视节目正将这一保持联系的老方式带回到现代人的视野．bring…to…固定搭配．所以填to．（2）its．代词考查．《见字如面》其想法源于一档类似的英国节目Letters Live，该节目于2013年首播．故填its．（3）shows．考查上下文语篇理解，此处缺名词，feature为谓语动词，且有both修饰则应该填复数形式．所以填shows．（4）are．主谓一致就近原则考查．两档节目均无惊人的视觉效果或是常规的娱乐活动．所以填are．（5）where．连词考查．先行词在定语从句中充当状语．所以填where．（6）creativity．考查词性转换．例如，节目里有一封30年前著名画家黄永玉写给剧作家曹禺的充满激情的信件，批评他缺乏创造力．所以填creativity．（7）being read．非谓语动词考查．听信时，我们仿佛回到过去，身临其境．现在分词作hear的宾语补充说明，与下文中as if we are being sent back呼应表示正在被听．所以填being read．（8）published．非谓语动词考查．过去分词作定语修饰texts．表示与其他出版文字相比，信件中自然地流露出个人感触．所以填published．（9）naturally．副词考查．此处用副词修饰动词，naturally是副词"自然地"，所以填naturally．（10）has been committed．动词时态考查．《见字如面》从开播至今还致力于推广中国文学．由since可知此处应用现在完成时．所以填has been committed．本文为说明性记叙文，介绍电视节目《见字如面》．语法填空是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识的运用能力，在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意，在读懂短文的基础上，结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析．要解决好语法填空，离不开坚实的语法知识，有了坚实的语法知识才能对语言进行正确的分析和判断，从而。

河南高三高中英语高考模拟带答案解析
河南高三高中英语高考模拟班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解1.The House at Pooh Corner by A. A. MilneI bought a box set of four Winnie the Pooh books while on holiday when I was eight years old. I adored Pooh, Piglet, Tigger and Eeyore. They became very real to me and I credit them with starting a lifelong love of reading.I still have the box set, and loved reading the stories to my children when they were small. Part of me secretly believes A. A. Milne’s wonderful characters are all alive and well and still having their adventures in the Hundred Acre Wood.-----Roberta SmithJane Eyre and Wuthering Heights by Charlotte and Emily BronteI can never separate Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre and Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights when I think about books that have stayed with me. Both had a deep impact on me when I read them as a teenager.They were the first classic books I read purely for pleasure, rather than because I had to for school.I grew up in Yorkshire, not far from where the Brontes lived, so part of me really understood the depressing landscape. That close geographical connection led to a lifelong interest in the authors as much as in the books themselves.I wrote a high-school essay on the contrasts and similarities between Charlotte and Emily and their heroines. I’d be fascinated to read that essay now to see what conclusions I reached as a 17-year-old.----Jane Lee【1】What do we know about the Winnie the Pooh books?A．They are very romanticB．They are designed for childrenC．They describe summer holiday storiesD．They encourage people to have all kinds of adventures【2】One reason why the writer likes Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights is that __________.A．the stories are in the background of an area that the writer knows wellB．the stories helped the writer with her essay writingC．they were recommended by the teachers in her schoolD．they were easy-to-find classic novels【3】The text intended to tell us _________.A．to introduce the books’ authorsB．to improve some classical literatureC．to explain the influence of these books on the writersD．to make comments on the books’ le ading characters2.Young people in the United States do not have a strong understanding of the world and their place in it.Two U. S.—based groups, the Council on Foreign Relations and the National Geographic, Society commissioned an online survey earlier this year. They wanted to know what young people educated in American colleges knew about geography, U. S. foreign policy, recent international events, and economics.The survey was given to over 1,200 Americans between the ages of 18 and 26 years. All of them presently attending, or having previously graduated from, a 2-or 4-year college or university.The average test score, out of 75 total possible answers, was 55 percent. The study identifies a few important problems. For example, only 30 percent knew that the only part of the U. S. government that can declare war is Congress. Only 60% of those taking the survey could identify Brazil on a world map.Part of the problem, argue the organizers of the survey, is the internet. They say it is becoming harder to find high-quality information about world events amongst all the fake news and trivia which swamp the web. Forty-three percent of those questioned said they read about the news on Facebook.Another problem is that most college courses do not require students to learn about international issues. If such information is not required, Richard Haass from the Council on Foreign Relations said, then the United States could have leaders like Gary Johnson. He was a recent presidential candidate who did not know about the Syrian city of Aleppo when a reporter asked him about it.The survey results were not all bad. The young people also demonstrated a good understanding of climate change and renewable energy. And the majority of them said that international issues were becoming more important to them.Haass says these findings suggest the need to find was to get good information to students, both in school and online. To help, the Council on Foreign Relations is creating a new program called CFR Campus, designed to help build knowledge about global issues.【1】What can we learn about the survey?A．All the participants were recent university graduatesB．It was an online survey conducted by two US universitiesC．Its aim is to figure out what the young people know about AmericaD．It was given to over 1,200 American people aged from 18 to 26【2】What’s one reason survey organizers give for young people’s lack of knowledge?A．Young people are unwilling to travel abroadB．The sources from which they get their informationC．The US university system is of poor qualityD．Their lack of interest in knowing more about the world【3】According to the survey, what topic did the young Americans understand best?A．Environmental matters B．Geographic informationC．Foreign relations D．Government organizations【4】In which column of a newspaper could we find this article?A．Economics B．EntertainmentC．Politics D．Education3.Many Shopping malls now have special areas that offer shoppers their first chance to experience “VR technology”. You may have entered one out of curiosity, or you may think it is just another piece of useless technology. Whatever your opinion, VR, or virtual(虚拟的)reality, is going to become a big part of our lives very soon.2016 saw the introduction of many fancy products in the world of VR, including Microsoft's HoloLens and Samsung's Gear VR. All of them offer an exciting look at the new realities” and op portunities that VR brings. These, however, are the early days of a technology that is expected to go from strength to strength. And 2017 looks like it is going to be the year in which VR technology really takes off.For a start, using VR will become more normal in 2017. Microsoft and Intel have already discussed their plans for simpler and less expensive VR headsets.The idea of VR will stop being a sci-fi (science-fiction) idea, and instead it will turn into an industry of real products used as ways to sh ow off imagination.” said Andrew, a designer at US VR Company, Survios.It is also expected that VR products will play a part in more common and real-life fields like fashion and film. For example, to enjoy the atmosphere and energy of the front row experience at a fashion show, fans will no longer have to go along in the flesh. Instead people will be able to enjoy the experience by just wearing a VR headset at home.You can also expect VR mirrors and fitting-rooms sooner rather than later. '' This is an especially good opportunity for brands looking to offer very personalized experiences.'' said Roy DeYoung from US-based marketing agency, PMX.As time goes on, there will be less discussion about whether people will accept VR technology. It will simply be a discussion of when.【1】Why do many shopping malls have areas for VR experiences?A．To collect shoppers' opinions.B．To meet the demands of shoppers.C．To introduce the new technology to shoppers.D．To entertain shoppers with new technology.【2】The underlined phrase “in the flesh” can be replaced by_____________.A．in time B．in personC．in line D．in order【3】What can we learn about VR products from the passage?A．They are cheap for the time beingB．They are being used almost everywhere.C．They won't be accepted for many years.D．They will meet more personal demands.【4】What may be the best title for the passage?A．VR Takes over FashionB．VR Mirror are around the cornerC．VR is Becoming RealD．VR Meets our Life Goal4.Can training Your Working Memory Make You Smarter?We would all like to increase our cognitive(认知的)ability beyond the limits set by Mother Nature. So it’s no wonder that brain-training programmes—which typically focus on training our working memory—are a multibillion-dollar industry. But can this kind of training really make us smarter?Cognitive training sees the brain as a kind of muscle that can be made stronger with the right kind of practice. It consists of tasks or games carried out on computers or smart phones. Despite much research, there has so far been no agreement about its effectiveness. Some think that cognitive training increases a broad range of cognitive abilities, while others less optimistic.Yet we do know that some cognitive skills, such as working memory and intelligence, tend to go together and are predictors of real-life skills such as work performance. Thus, training one cognitive skill might lead to an improvement in many other cognitive and non-cognitive skills. That is exactly the underlying hypothesis(假设)on which working-memory training is based.To test this hypothesis, we examined all the studies about working-memory training we could find with normally developing children: 26 experiments and 1,601 total participants. Children represent an ideal test group: during childhood, skills are still at the beginning of their development. Thus, cognitive training is more likely to succeedwith children than adults.The results were very clear. Working-memory training did not show any effect on children’s fluid intelligence, a person’s ability to solve new problems and adapt to new situations. It didn’t influence their academic achievement or other cognitive abilities, either. The only reliable effect was that children got better at what they trained to do. No more, no less. So performing working-memory tasks does seem to make you better at doing them. Nonetheless, the fact that participants got better at such tasks does not necessarily mean that their working-memory ability increased. They may just have learnt how to perform that particular type of task.The results do indicate that the use of working-memory training programs as an educational tool is fruitless. More generally, together with other research, the results contribute to disproving cognitive training companies promises of a better brain.The results have even more important implications theoretically. They question the hypothesis that training general cognitive mechanisms can affect other cognitive or real-life skills. Beyond working-memory training, other recent studies have shown the improving cognitive skills outside music-including academic skills.However, these negative results must not discourage us from training our cognitive and non-cognitive skills. We just have to be aware of the actual limitations of such practice in areas outside what we are actually training. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do it-the most efficient way to develop a skill is, after all, to train that skill.【1】To find out the effect of working memory training, the author ________.A．made some scientific studiesB．reviewed the previous researchC．compared different test groupsD．got some children involved in the experiment【2】Children joining in the experiments were able to __________.A．do better in the field where they are trainedB．obtain greater academic achievementsC．adjust to new situations quicklyD．succeed when they deal with real life problems【3】What is th e author’s attitude toward the cognitive training?A．Pessimistic B．DisapprovingC．Objective D．Optimistic【4】Cognitive training is likely to _______ according to the passage.A．discover the secrets of human mindsB．make one’s brain stronger by way of practiceC．earn a good name for the training companyD．bring much profit to the training companies二、其他Parents Model Healthy EatingIt should come as no surprise that the more stressed parents are not work, the greater the burden on their family is. 【1】After all, the more time parents spend working, the less time and energy they have to plan and prepare healthful meals.For years, mos t studies have focused on the role of working mothers while fathers were ignored. They didn’t look at the family as a whole,【2】, adds a new wrinkle to the relationship between work stress and family nutrition.Moms’ work related stress is still a centra l factor in how well families eat because they typically do most of the food shopping and cooking.【3】The study found that when mom or dad experience high levels of work related stress, their families are eating one-and-a-half fewer family meals per week, and the parents themselves report eating fewer fruits andvegetables, more fast food, and are less likely to eat breakfast regularly.It’s worth noting that the study looked mainly at low income families who belonged to ethnic or minority groups.【4】 But the implications are wide ranging.【5】Teaching kids, especially teenagers, to help with grocery shopping and to cook actual meals, instead ofjust putting a frozen pizza in the microwave, could be an important piece of the puzzle in helping families improves their eating habits.A．When it comes to family nutrition, the entire family plays a role even kids.B．so the findings don’t necessarily apply directly to other types of familiesC．But dad’s work related stress has a large impact, too.D．Yet, the kids’ stress may influence the families’ nutrition, tooE. and at the role of fathers in particularF. It’s also probably not a surprise that his can negatively affect a family’s nutritionG. It is parents who give their kids a good model to develop a good eating habit.三、完形填空I had just arrived in this Asian country for a one-year teaching position.

河南高三高中英语高考模拟带答案解析
河南高三高中英语高考模拟班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解1.Soon enough, we will lose some of the most amazing sites on Earth!The Great Barrier Reef---Rising air temperatures will cause sea temperatures to rise as well. All life supported by the oceans will be affected with this shock to their ecosystem. Coral are some of the most vulnerable marine animals and we are already watching whole reefs disappear. The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is no exception and will continue to shrink as the temperatures rise! These reefs are some of the best in the world for diving, but they will soon disappear!Venice---Sprawing across(横跨)hundreds of small islands in Northeast Italy, Venice is at extreme risk of sinking into the Adriatic Sea. Rising sea levels are in fact a serious threat to many coastal cities located at sea level. Lucky for us, however, Venice is developing a series of sea walls to protect the city in times of high tide.Glacier(冰川)National Park---Glacier National Park was once covered by over 150 glaciers, but by 2005 it only had about 27! Located in Montana, Canada, this park is over a million acres and has a huge plant and wildlife population. As temperatures rise, the glaciers and ice melt, which will upset the ecosystems sustaining over a thousand plant species and hundreds of animals.The Amazon---The cause behind the disappearance of these fantastic places ultimately comes down to humans. Our expansion usually requires cutting down forests for land, fuel and materials, but rarely considers the consequences. These forests are sources of food and medicine for just about everyone on the planet!What will happen if we lose these valuable places and beautiful destinations?!【1】According to the text, what is causing coral’s death?A．Rising sea levelsB．Humans’ diving activitiesC．Rising sea temperaturesD．The shrinkage(缩小)of their habitats【2】What can we infer from the par t of “Venice”?A．Venice is the only coastal city of ItalyB．Many places are in the risk of sinking below the sea levelC．Venice will never sink because of the protection of sea wallsD．Italy consists of hundreds of small islands in the Adriatic Sea【3】What can we learn about Glacier National Park from the text?A．It covers a large area in MontanaB．It is covered by over 150 glaciersC．Plant species and animals in it have died outD．It doesn’t support any living thing for its cold【4】Which si te’s shrinking reason differs from the other sites?A．The Great Barrier Reef B．VeniceC．Glacier National Park D．The Amazon2.Learning new cultures is one of my favorite things to do.College is a time for new and exciting experiences as well as a time to explore diverse and innovative(创新的)ideas. What could be better than traveling to China to learn about their ideas, history, and culture? I believe studying abroad is something that every college student should do to help to expand his or her horizons, and to appreciate everything the world has to offer. I spent the first eight of my early years living abroad in two countries. From this rich period of growth, I acquired an identity as a global citizen, and the skills to independently navigatelife in a foreign culture. It seems appropriate to support my next jump in life with an abroad experience that will show the directions in which I have grown since my early years, as well as provide a unique context for exploring the limits of my education.Here is an undeniable advantage to living and studying in China; to be submersed in (投入)the Chinese life is the only way to fully understand and learn about how the country impacts and is impacted by the rest of the world. Not only am I learning about China, but I have also come to appreciate other countries in the world from a different point of view. Being in China has given me the change to learn in a different environment, and I do not think there is any better way to learn the culture than to actually be there. I have a very strong admiration for the Chinese language, people, and culture. I will continue to apply my newfound knowledge to my entire life and the way I look at the world around me.【1】What does the author say about studying abroad?A．College can be barrier to study abroadB．Studying abroad can replace the college educationC．Not every college student suits for studying abroadD．Studying abroad can enrich the experiences of living abroad【2】What did the author benefit from living abroad?A．Skills to live independentlyB．All nationalities of the worldC．Growing to be a strong personD．Unlimited education chances【3】What does the author advise students to do about learning foreign cultures?A．Learn foreign cultures locallyB．When in Rome, do as the Romans doC．Appreciate cultures from different point of viewsD．Try to impact foreign cultures with their own ones3.I used to believe courtesy was a thing of the past. Very seldom have I encountered a courteous human being in this modern era.Recently, I had to change my thinking, when I came face to face with just such a human being in a coffee place, with my two daughters. The place was crowded as usual and we had to climb steep(陡峭)stairs in order to find an empty table. After enjoying coffee and snacks, we went down the narrow stairs, where there was hardly any space for another person to either climb up or come down.Just as I was in the middle of the stairs, a gentleman entered the main entrance of the restaurant which was right in front of the staircase(楼梯). I was sure I would be pushed roughly by this man going up. I kept coming down as fast as I could. My daughters were already down, looking up at me worriedly, hoping I would reach them before the stranger started walking up the stairs, knowing I was a nervous sort.Nearly reaching them, I noticed the man still standing near the door. I reached my daughters and passed the stranger at the entrance door which he kept holding open. I looked back thinking he was still at the door, deciding whether to go in or find another less crowded place. I saw him going up the stairs, two at a time. I told my daughters about it and all three of us felt bad that we did not even thank the courteous gentleman who was actually holding the door open for us ladies to pass through before going up.Such well mannered people are hard to find these days, when pushing is very common in our advanced but aggressive society. We applauded for his chivalry(骑士精神).【1】What is the meaning of the underlined word “courtesy” in Paragraph 1?A．A brave action B．Sacrifice spiritC．A considerate action D．Selfish behavior【2】What did the author think of the man at the first sight of him?A．He was in a hurryB．He would wait for herC．He would cross her rudelyD．He was a man with good manners【3】Why did the author’s daughters worry about her?A．She was easy to be nerviousB．She took up too much spaceC．She was too old to walk fastD．She focused too much on the man【4】What can we learn about the man from Paragraph 4?A．He might be a waiter of the caféB．He might have an urgent business to doC．He loved a daughter of the authorD．He would hold the door open for all4.In my opinion, classical music is a bit like mushrooms! You don’t see the link? Let me explain. When I was younger, I didn’t like mushrooms. They had a horrible texture(质地)and no taste at all, and I used to pick them out of every dish in which my mum tired to hide them. But gradually, as I got older, my view changed. I started to enjoy mushrooms-flavoured things like soups and sauces, and eventually I found I could eat mushrooms without grimacing(痛苦的表情). And now I even quite enjoy them! So my mum’s prediction that I would “grow into them” was proved quite correct.Similarly, I always thought of classical music as this boring genre(类型)that only boring grown-ups liked. Whenever my parents played it in the car, I would count down the minutes until we could change it to my preferred genre: pop. But while at university, I found that calming orchestral music was just the thing for library revision playlists---it had no lyrics to stop me concentrating on my study, and the pieces tended to be very long; perfect for long work sessions!Recently, my developing relationship with classical music reached a new level when I voluntarily chose to go to a ballet. Admittedly, it was the dancing that originally attracted me, but once there I thoroughly enjoyed the music too. It was The Nutcracker, and I was surprised by just how much of music I recognized! The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, The Russian Dance, The Waltz of the Flowers—they all sounded familiar. I didn’t know how I knew them, I just knew that I did! And I loved them. My parents would be proud.【1】Why did the author first hate eating mushrooms?A．The author’s mother always cooked themB．The mushrooms had terrible look and no tasteC．Some mushrooms had bad effects on healthD．Some mushrooms tasted terrible【2】How does the writer connect classical music with mushrooms?A．By comparison B．By the order of timeC．By telling facts D．By imagination【3】What did the author’s parents think of classical music?A．Uninterested B．FavoriteC．Curious D．Bored【4】What’s the best title of the passage?A．The Art and LifeB．The Change of HobbiesC．Classical Music and Mushrooms!D．Music or Mushrooms?二、其他How to Communicate With a Deaf PersonCommunicating with a deaf person doesn’t have to be as difficult as it might seem. The trick is to be patient, straightforward, and to remember that deaf people communicate visually. Before you know it, you’ll forget you were ever worried!Method 1: Staring Your Conversation【1】You can do this by moving into the person’s field of vision and waving from a polite distance, or by tapping the person gently on the shoulder. If it’s a real emergency, you can also turn the lights off and on quickly. Position yours elf carefully. Make sure that the light in the room is shining directly onto your face, and that you’re not standing with your back to a light.【2】Find out how the person prefers to communicate. Some deaf people are better lip-readers than others. Some deaf people may prefer to write back and forth or to use an interpreter. Man interactions between the deaf and the hearing require a combination of these methods.【3】Method 2: Communicating through Lip-reading.Keep your sentences simple and use plain language.【4】The more complex your phrasing and vocabulary, the more likely your deaf companion is to miss something. Try to avoid using slang or expressions that aren’t widely known.When someone else is speaking, don’t turn away from the deaf person in your group.【5】You don’t have to look at the deaf person while someone else is talking, but try to make sure your face is visible.A．Get the person’s attention.B．It’s important not talk too quickly.C．Or, they’ll miss parts of the conversation.D．If so, it’ll make them feel left out of the conversation.E. Stand directly in front of the person, at a normal distance.F. The best way to know which methods are most effective is to ask.G. Try not to be too difficult when using your words in the beginning.三、完形填空For the past two years I have been travelling and living abroad. ______ has become more of a feeling than a place.

"The response speed after watching 3D was almost three times as quick as that gained from watching 2D; in other words,3D helps children process aspects of their environment more quickly.This is likely because 3D is a mentally exciting experience which 'gets the brain's juices flowing'."【1】How do we know the benefits of watching a 3D film?A．Through introduction.B．By taking an exam.C．Through research.D．By watching TV shows.【2】What's the meaning of the underlined word "stimulation" ?A．Excitement.B．Contents.C．Cost.D．Time.【3】Why does 3D have an advantage over 2D?A．The time of watching 3D is short.B．3D can increase the reaction speed.C．3D can make children adapt the surroundings more quickly.D．3D can make more brain's power【4】What may be the best title for the text?A．How 3D forms B．What are 3D filmsC．A study on 3D films D．3D films benefit children3.In the traffic lights,red means "stop",green means "go",and yellow means "hurry": Why those colors, though? Why not blue,purple,and brown?The following are transponded from others WeChat.●Red is an inherited symbol from railroadsRed symbolizes danger in many cultures,which makes sense,considering it has the longest wavelength of any color,meaning you can see it from a greater distance than other colors.Red has meant "stop" since long before cars existed,with railway signals use of red dating bake to the days when mechanical arms lifted and lowered to indicate whether the rail ahead was clear.So that one's simple.●Green meant "caution" at firstGreen's role in lights has actually changed dramatically over time.Its wavelength is next to (and shorter than) yellow's,meaning it's still easier to see than any color other than red and yellow.Back in the early days of railway lights,green originally meant "caution",while the "all-clear" light was,well,clear or white.Trains,of,course,take an unlimitedly long time to stop,and legend has it that several disastrous collisions happened after an engineer mistook stars in the night horizon for an all-clear.Thus,green became "go",and for a long time,railways used only green and red to signal trains.●Yellow means "caution" because it's almost as easy to see as redFrom the earliest days of motoring up until the mid-1900s,not all stop signs were red-many were yellow, because at night it was all but impossible to see a red stop sign in a poorly lit area.The yellow stop-sign craze began in Detroit in 1915,a city that five years later installed its first electric traffic signal,which happened to include the very first amber traffic light,at the corner of Michigan and Woodward Aves.【1】What are the earliest traffic signals designed for from the passage?A．Cars.B．Trains.C．Motorcars.D．Not mentioned.【2】Which statement is true according to the passage?A．Green means "go" all the time.B．Red is the easiest color to be noticed.C．All yellow things need dealing with carefully.D．All the three colors were once used as "caution".【3】What's the main idea of the passage?A．What is your favorite color?B．Why are "Red,Yellow,Green" used as traffic signals?C．How can we figure out the wavelength of colors?D．What color can green,yellow and red make?【4】Where is the passage from?A．A diary.B．A scientific magazine.C．A newspaper.D．The Internet.二、其他Why Walking Your Dog Is Great ExerciseHaving trouble sticking to an exercise program?Research shows that dogs are actually nature's perfect personal trainers-loyal,hard-working,energetic and enthusiastic.Your friends may skip an exercise session because of appointments,extra chores or bad weather.【1】Is dog walking really effective exercise?Many people are becoming interested in exercise to help lose excess weight.【2】Dog owner-ship and obesity were evaluated in Seattle,Wash.,and Baltimore,Md.,in a study published in the journal Preventive Medicine in September 2008.Dog owners who reported walking their dogs were almost 25 percent less likely to be obese than people without dogs.What are the benefits of regular exercise?Dr.Joanna Kruk reviewed medical literature describing the health benefits of exercise.Her research showed that the risk of developing a number of serious health problems is reduced by physical activity and exercise.【3】It's easy to forget about healthy walking plans,so set the stage for a successful program: Establish a walking schedule; plan to walk 30 minutes total each day.This might include a 10-minute neighborhood walk in the morning and a 20-minute romp at the dog park after work.Or maybe three 10-minule walks or one 30-minute walk fit in better with your day.If dog walking is "scheduled" each day,you'll feel more responsible for sticking with your program.【4】Most importantly,daily walking your dog will keep it fit and give it an opportunity to utilize their senses while also engaging their mind.So,grab a leash,whistle to the pup,and go for a walk-today and every day! Take action!【5】A．Plan for success.B．Track your progress.C．This will reinforce your good behavior.D．Dog walking is a great way to start a healthy lifestyle program.E.However,dogs never give you an excuse to delay exercising.F.Plus,your dog will also get used to the routine and remind you when "it's time"!G.Obesity is affecting about one in every three to four adults in the United States and Europe.三、完形填空"There once was a beggar who loved to hear himself sing.He lived______a dustbin next to a supermarket.He had the most amazing voice.No one would listen to him,______.Cats and dogs would come to sing along.All animals would come to hear this sound.No______though.His______audience were the animals.Even without people to sing to.the man was filled with______for he loved his voice.Then one day,a little girl was on her way to the supermarket.The man was singing one of his favorite songs.The little girl______him and wondered what that noise was.She began______around every corner until she found him. The girl's eyes began to grow wide as she saw the man in his______clothes.She asked him to sing,withno______of danger in her voice.This shocked the man.He sang for the girl with joy in his eyes.Although it was nice to be _____to sing,it was also nice to have an audience.He sang until they heard the girl's mother______for her.The girl quickly said______and ran off.The girl returned the next day and asked him to sing.______he sang for the little girl.After a few songs,sheleft____the call of her mother.She came the day after,with an older woman.This was the girl's______.She did not seem to mind being led behind a______dustbin.The girl asked the beggar to sing.The man sang his heart out for the_____of them to hear.The mother's frown began to______and a smile began to appear.The days after were full of cheerful singing and the audience of two______,they would bring more people to listen.The beggar continued to sing until he could not sing anymore.______he loved his voice anymore.【1】A．over B．under C．beside D．behind【2】A．although B．but C．though D．still【3】A．cats B．audience C．animals D．humans【4】A．only B．devoted C．enthusiastic D．excited【5】A．regret B．joy C．pain D．sorrow【6】A．saw B．noticed C．heard D．made【7】A．looking B．researching C．searching D．finding【8】A．tidy B．clean C．dirty D．cheap【9】A．fear B．signal C．expression D．noise【10】A．awake B．alone C．aware D．ashamed【11】A．phoning B．crying C．appealing D．calling【12】A．goodbye B．okay C．sorry D．hello【13】A．Once B．Again C．More D．Often【14】A．in B．on C．at D．over【15】A．friend B．mother C．sister D．teacher 【16】A．big B．deserted C．smelly D．beautiful 【17】A．both B．none C．all D．either 【18】A．replace B．ruin C．fade D．break 【19】A．Later B．Earlier C．Sooner D．Otherwise 【20】A．A part from B．Thanks to C．Not just D．In addition四、其他Many people believe small talk is very【1】(bore).Although that is true,there are many places where small talk is very important.In Western culture,strangers talk to other strangers【2】(frequent).On the other hand,small talk is not so common in Eastern culture.Strangers are【3】(friend)to one another in Western culture,and small talk is very important to English learning.One other place where small talk is important is in【4】interview.Besides,the best way to learn small talk is to provide many examples.Here are some【5】(suggest)about how to use examples.Small talk【6】(involve)many different topics.In other words,students can learn several lessons,【7】(cover)other subjects,such as sports,jobs,schools,etc.Once we have started the small talk,【8】is your responsibility to keep the conversation【9】(focus)on your work and study.In order to do so,you can talk about anything【10】is not too personal.五、短文改错假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下短文。

If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer，we would find it full of fatigue toxins at and fatigue products．But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein，it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day.So far as the brain is concerned，it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning．The brain is totally tireless．So what makes us tired?Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional attitudes．One of England’s most outstanding scientists，J．A．Hadfield，says，“The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin．In fact，fatigue of purely physical origin is rare．”Dr．Brill，a famous American scientist，goes even further， He declares，“One hundred percent of the fatigue of sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems．”What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired?
