He explained th at he wished to buy a pearl（珍珠）for his wife’s birthday. The price didn’t matter, since business had been very good for him that year. After examining a nice black one that cost $5, 000, he paid for the pearl in cash, sho ok hands with the jeweler and left.A few days later the man returned and said that his wife like d the pearl so much that she wanted another one just like this. It had to be exactly the same size and quality, as she wanted a pair of earrings made. "Can you give me any advice on ho w to get such a pearl?" said the man. The jeweler regretfully r eplied "I would say it’s absolutely impossible to find one exactl y like that pearl".The rich man insisted that the jeweler advertise in the newsp apers, offering $25,000 for the matching pearl. Many people a nswered the advertisement（广告） but nobody had a pearl that was just right.Just when the jeweler had given up hope, a little old lady cam e into his store. To his great surprise, she pulled the perfect p earl from her purse." "I don’t like to part with it”, she said sadly . “I got it from my mother, and my mother got it from hers.

They c ome and visit some of the most famous places in England: Bi g Ben, the Tower of London and the River Thames.You can see some of the most interesting places in London b y getting on the tour buses. Or you can take a ride on the Lon don Eye. This large wheel slowly takes you 135m above the River Thames.The River Thames is London’s main waterway. It has shaped the capital’s landscape, history and geography. So one of the best ways of making sense of the city is to take a trip along th e river.The clock tower of the House of Parliament, Big Ben, has bec ome one of the main symbols of London. The sound of the bel l, which you can hear at the beginning of many television and radio programmes has become well-known throughout the nation.No visit to London is complete without a look at the Tower of London, in the eastern part of the city. After Big Ben, the Tow er may be London’s most visited tourist spot. Directly south is Tower Bridge, which is more than 100 years old.Among all the palaces in London, Buckingham Palace is the most famous. It has been the main London home of the royal family since Queen Victoria moved there in 1837. You can visi t some of the rooms in August and September. And most mor nings of the year you can watch the soldiers outside changing the guard.About one hour by train out of London is the town of Windsor. Here you can visit another of the Queen’s homes---Windsor Castle. There was a fire in 1992 and many of the roo ms were badly burned. But now they are full of beautiful pictur es, tables and chairs again.Sightseeing in London is great, but it can get very tiring. So, t he best way to start the day is to fill up with an English breakf ast.You can buy an English breakfast in nearly every hotel, and at many restaurants and cafes. An English pub is a good place t o stop for lunch and a drink. You can get hot or cold food and try one of England’s many ales (浓啤酒). Fish and chips are also a traditional English meal. So look out for fish and chip shops in cities as well as by the sea. Or you can sit outside one of the many roadside pubs and caf es in London, and simply watch the busy world go by.27. The underlined word “landscape”(paragraph3) is closest i n meaning to ______.A. sightsB. interestC. growthD. travel28. Which place may be London’s most visited tourist spot?A. The River ThamesB. The Tower of LondonC. Buckingham PalaceD. Big Ben29. If you go to London in December, you will not be able to _ _____.A. visit Windsor CastleB. tour the Buckingham PalaceC. tour the city along the River ThamesD. watch the soldiers outside changing guards30. We can learn from the text that _______________.A. the sound of the Big Ben can be heard everywhereB. Windsor Castle has been rebuiltC. only some of the hotels in England serve breakfastD. the London Eye can carry you where you like to go第二节（共5小题，每题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

2016-2017学年第二学期高一英语期中考试本试卷共120分,考试时间100分钟。
第Ⅰ卷( 共85分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,共40分)第一节(共15小题,每小题2分,共30分.)AMobile phones are in the hands of many kids and teenagers . However ,are they really necessary at school? Here are the pr os and cons(赞成和反对的理由).PROSThey can get in touch when necessary . The main benefit of h aving a phone is that your child can get in touch with you whe never they need to . This allows you to feel they are safe. They can ring the emergency services if necessary. If your chi ld is in immediate danger, they can use their phone to call not only you but the emergency services. This is of great benefit a nd could potentially save your child’s life.Mobile phones can be turned off or on to silent. As long as yo ur child remembers to do this their phone won’t cause a distra ction(分心) in class, but they will have a way to contact you if they nee d to. Giving them a standard rather than a smartphone will als o reduce the risk of distraction.CONSThe latest smartphones can almost double as a computer . It means they offer far more of a distraction to kids than they us ed to. Nowadays, children can not only text and make calls wi th their mobiles, they can also play games, surf the Internet a nd listen to music. All these features could disturb your child’s concentration if they play with them in class.It could interrupt lessons. Many children, even though they ar e asked to do so, forget to turn off their phones during lessons and their phones may make sounds. This not only annoys ot her pupils but also prevents them from learning.Besides the distraction problem, access to the Internet can al so be used to look up answers and mobile phones have some other functions---a calculator and the ability to save notes. The possibility of chi ldren having access to this information during exams could be too tempting(诱惑人的)for pupils not to take advantage of. 1. We can infer that many parents give their kids phones main ly to_____.A. enrich their school lifeB. make sure they are safeC. improve their performance at schoolD. help them communicate with friends2 To reduce the risk of distraction from phones, which sugges tion is given?A. Parents shouldn’t contact their children in class.B.There should be enough public phones in school.C.Teachers ask students to turn off their phones in class.D.Children use ordinary phones instead of smartphones.3. According to the last paragraph, for students, using mobile phones at school_____.A. has many advantagesB. helps them take notesC. makes cheating easierD. inspires their exploration spiritBFifty-two endangered sea turtles were brought back to good health and returned to the wild earlier this month. Teams of research ers drove the turtles all the way from Massachusetts to Florid a, where they were put back into the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean.The turtles’ story began last fall, when a large number of them got stuck near Cape Cod in . These tough turtles had to be n ursed back to good health for about six months before they co uld swim in the sea again.Sea turtles generally live south of the Carolinas in the Atlantic Ocean. But during the summer months, they take a ride on th e Gulf Stream-----a strong ocean current of warm water that runs north along th e east coast. The Gulf Stream brings the turtles plenty of tasty food to eat.When summer turns to fall, sea turtles head south again as th e water turns colder. That’s because sea turtles are cold-blooded. That means they cannot produce their own body hea t. They need the seawater to provide them with heat.Some turtles don’t get to warmer waters fast enough. When th e waters of the northern Atlantic turn cold in the fall, many turtl es can’t stand the cold. They can not move and become unab le to find their way. The turtles can drift only where the wind a nd tides take them.Many of these turtles are washed up on the shore near Cape Cod. Last year , 242turtles were rescued there.Scientists are unsure why so many needed to be helped. The turtles spent the winter getting better at aquariums along the east coast.As the weather grew warmer, 52 turtles were ready to return t o their natural habitat. It was a great success for the turtles an d the people who nursed them back to health.“It’s an exciting day for all these organizations,” said Connie Merigo of the New England Aquarium.“This is what we work f or. These are endangered species. So every turtle that gets b ack out in the wild and has a potential to contribute to the pop ulation is really important.”4.How do the sea turtles come to the northern Atlantic?A. They are carried there by a strong ocean current.B.Some researchers attract them there to do a study .C.Some fishermen bring them there and set them free.D.They are washed up there by a stream of cold water.5.Sea turtles head south when ____.A. they are tiredB. the temperature dropsC. they have had enough foodD. there is no tasty food for them6.Why are some turtles in need of help?A.They are starving.B.They are freezing.C.They are hurt by other animals.D.They are suffering from a disease.7. What does the underlined word “This” in the last paragra ph refer to?A. The turtles are shown to the public.B.The turtles are studied by scientists.C.Some turtles are returning to the wild.D.Some turtles will be kept in the aquariumCDoctors are known to be terrible pilots. They don’t listen be cause they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical scho ol. I didn’t realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a bette r surgeon(外科医生). I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather, I learned about crew resource management (机组管理资源),or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that cre w members should listen and speak up for a good result, rega rdless of positions.I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that , an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller ha d us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doct or was flying ; I was safety pilot. He was so busy because of t he bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear(起落架) down. He was a better pilot--and my boss ---so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in d anger. I put aside my uneasiness and said,“We need to put th e landing gear down now!” That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I have used it in the operating room ever since.CRM requires that the pilot\surgeon encourage others to sp eak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opp osite, the doctor does not overreact, which might prevent fello w doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I’m in the ope rating room,I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes t hey are not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from “landi ng gear up”.8.What does the author say about doctors in general?A.They are unwilling to take advice.B.They like flying by the mselves.C.They pretend to be good pilots.D.They are quick learne rs of CRM.9.The author deepened his understanding of the power of CR M when____.A.his boss operated on a patientB. he was in charge of a flying taskC. his boss landed the plane too lateD. he saved the plane by speaking up10. In the last paragraph “landing gear up” probably means__ _____.A. following flying requirementsB. making a mistake that may cost livesC.overreacting to difference opinionsD.listening to what fell ow doctors say11 Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.CRM:A New Way to Make Flying SafeB.Flying Makes Me a Better DoctorC.The Making of a Good pilotD. A Pilot--Turned DoctorDJimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has a good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to att end a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he w as supposed to be interviewed,he saw an elderly man wildly k icking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wron g with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand . When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said ther e was no need to pay him;he just helped someone in need, a nd he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said,“We ll, I could take you to the office for your interview. It is the leas t I could do. Please, I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting t o be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease(油迹) on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applic ants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed looks on the ir faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitti ng on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked,“Do you really need to be interviewe d?”Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turn ed out he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I mad e the right decision to have you as part of our workforce befor e you even stepped in this office. I just know you would be a tr ustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well--deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.12.Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?He was bored with his job.

at lunch time，phoning instead to tell me he was fine and had found a few days'work helping out at an exhibit．He turned up for supper as usual however after he finished work．I asked him how he had managed at lunch and he told me he had made some new friends at the carnival，some young men who were twin brothers，and their mom and dad．They had paid him a few dollars and invited him for lunch in return for helping them set up their exhibit and wanted him to return the next day to help with other chores （杂务）．I was glad he had found new friends but a little worried about the type of people who might be traveling in a carnival．"Oh，Mom，these are just normal everyday people like anyone else．They just work at a carnival instead of in a store or something"．"Comedown tomorrow and meet them yourself，"he said．So the next day I went to the carnival and to the exhibit he had directed me to．The twin brothers turned out to be Siamese （连体的） twins，joined at the chest．He hadn't thought this fact was noteworthy（重要的） enough to mention．When I brought it to him，he said，"Yes，I noticed that too．Do you know that their mom has to make all their clothes because it's so difficult to find anything to fit them？They're also really good cooks．Today，Joe，the one on the right，made me spaghetti （意大利面条） for lunch．"What others see first in a person is not what a child considers important．Where I saw

AThere was a park near my home. But I didn’t go there very oft en. Many people said there was nothing special. One afternoo n, I went into the park and found it was really small. I walked q uickly because there wasn’t much to see. I walked for some time and found myself standing in front of two paths. “Which w ay should I go?” I asked myself. I looked at one way, then the other. I found that the two paths were different from each othe r.The left one was wide and clean. There were lots of flowers o n both sides of the path. Though they weren’t that beautiful, th ey made me feel good. I decided to take this path. But wait! I l ooked at the right one. The path didn’t look nice. It was narro w and dirty. It looked as if it had not been cleaned for months. Grass grew everywhere. For a long time, I couldn’t make up my mind. After a while a strange feeling made me follow the d irty path. It wasn’t nice, but I didn’t want to give up. At last, I c ame to the end of the path.Ah! There was a small garden there. It was beautiful, perhaps the most beautiful garden I had ever seen. There were trees, flowers and chairs. I thought it was the nicest part of the park. Many people told me that there was nothing much to see in th e park. Now I’d like to tell them that if they had followed the rig ht way, they would have felt differently.

And many of today's word experts can t hank a famous Englishman for his creation of the way in whic h they develop many new words. His name was Charles L. D odgson. Besides working with numbers, Dodgson wrote book s. His stories and poems have made Dodgson popular with a l ot of readers. We know him, however, not by the name of Dod gson but by his pen name, Lewis Carroll.Lewis Carroll has made so many readers happy, young and old, with Alice in Wonderland, Through the Looking Glass, and a lot of poems. In these works, Carroll developed lots of wor ds such as "chortle" and "galumph". Many of these words are combined naturally with more common words in the English la nguage. Carroll referred to his made-up words as "portmanteau" words, named after a kind of leath er suitcase that opens into two parts. The name was just right for Carroll's words, because most of his words had two parts. They were usually made from the combined parts of two differ ent words. A "snark", for example, clearly came from a snake and a shark.Although Carroll died long ago, his way to create new words c ontinues to be used today. We clearly see his influence in such words as “smog” and “brunch”.8. What does the underlined sentence probably mean accordi ng to the passage?A. Dictionaries are open to the public.B. Dictionaries are helpful to the public.C. New words can be added to dictionaries.D. The words in dictionaries are always changing.9. From the passage, we know that Charles L.

Many famous museum s throughout the world can offer you good chances to enjoy ar t. Florida International University (FIU) in Miami also shows ar t for people to see, but it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.FIU has opened the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the University to see the art. W hat you need is just a computer connected to a telephone. Th at’s enough.You can call the telephone number of a University computer a nd connect your own computer to it. All of the art is in the school computer. It is computer art, produced by artists on their o wn computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can recei ve and copy all the pictures and drawings.Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he started the museum because computer artists had no place to show their work. A computer artist could only record his pictures on the computer and send the records to others t o see on their computers. He could also put his pictures on pa per. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist wi ll have to need a very expensive printer(打印机).Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art o r computer students at schools and universities. Many of the p ictures in the museum are made by students. Mr Shostak said the FIU museum will make computer art more fun for comput er artists because more people can see it. He says artists enj oy their work much more if they have an audience. And the gr eat number of home computers in America could mean huge audience for the electronic museum.12.

AThe London Eye 4D Film Experience started in August and is included in the London Eye ticket price. It is a fantastic 4D film to entertain you before your trip on the London Eye. The 4D effects are great.No Extra Cost to YouThat’s right; you buy your ticket for the London Eye and 4D cinema experience. Merlin Entertainments, the London Eye owners, spent 5 million creating the film and building the 4D cinema and wanted to improve the value for money of the London Eye.What to ExpectThe 4D Cinema entrance is in the ticket hall. So after buying your ticket, go straight to it, where you’ll be given a pair of glasses. About 160 visi tors will pass through the 4D cinema every 8 minutes so don’t worry about waiting time. People in the bright pink cinema are all standing on four levels. The top level is designed for wheelchairs.London Eye 4D FilmPut on your glasses and enjoy yourself. The story is about a little girl visiting London with her father and she wants to be higher to get a better view so she comes to the London Eye. It differs from watching the 3D film for all your senses are involved. When it snows on screen, you feel it snows in the cinema. And when you watch the fireworks, you can really smell them.For a short film, less than four minutes, before the main attraction you think you’ ve come for, you are going to love this free extra. I stood there with my mouth wide open at the end as many others did. It’s fantastic! The effects are the Hollywood standard as no expense is spared. I was lucky enough to try the film three times on the first day and I still want to go back again.1. What does the author mainly tell us in this passage?A. He mainly introduces the 4D film of Merlin Entertainments.B. He mainly introduces the London Eye entertainment centre.C. He mainly tells us his experiences while creating the 4D film.D. He mainly introduces to us how to take part in the 4D film.2. Where could people get into the 4D film cinema?A. Under the London Eye.B. In the Hollywood.C. In the ticket hall.D. In the ticket centre.3. While seeing a 4D film, people will feel ________.A. greatly frightenedB. much worriedC. sweet smellD. as if they were on the scene4. According to the passage, a 4D film probably lasts about ________.A. 4 secondsB. 8 secondsC. 4 minutesD. 8 minutesBWilliam Purkey, a well-known professor of education, said ,“Dance like no one is watching, love like you’ll never be hurt, sing like no one is listening, and live like it’s heaven on earth.” It seems like the perfect life philosophy（哲学）, and one I’ve learned to apply to running over the year. But I didn’t always feel this way. In m y early days, when I weighed 240 pounds, I ran like everyone was watching, and judging. If I was on a run and saw a car approaching, I’d stop and pretend I was looking for something I'd lost. I bought the high-tech gear（装备）and clothes that I thought would make people believe I was a runner. And I didn't have a clue if the expensive shoes I was wearing were the right kind for me. I just want to look I fit in with this group.To be honest, I felt a certain satisfaction in believing that someone was watching. I really thought that other people cared about my performance. The best example of this was a combined, two-lap marathon in Florence, Italy. As I neared the finish line, the crowd began to cheer. I was surprised. Here I was, thousands of miles from home, and the Italians were shouting for “II Penguino ”About 20 yards from the finishing, the truth set in when the dinner of the full marathon went past me as I was finishing the half—marathon. No one was cheering for me. No one probably even noticed that I w as finishing. I couldn’t help but smile at my own illusion（幻象）of self-importance.That’s when I realized I had been running for every reason except the right one. I ran to make other people happy and to live up to their expectations. But no one was watching —no one cared. So I decided I was going to run for me — just me — and gained a new enjoyment from the sport 1 hadn't truly experienced yet. I've learned to run like on one is watching.So if you see me at a race, and I look like a 60-year-old guy saddling (蹒跚) along, don’t worry. I’m fine. The miracle isn’t that it is finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start.5. It can be inferred from paragraph 2 that the writer .A. used sports clothes and shoes to attract attentionB. was concerned about what others thought of herC. liked to be the focus of other runnersD. struggled to find the right shoes to fit her6. When the writer was near the finishing line .A. she felt her own achievementB. the crowd cheered for her madlyC. nobody really cared about her runningD. she realized the importance of confidence7. Now the writer thought the reason for running is to .A. live up to others' expectationB. create a miracle in her own fifeC. run like no one is watchingD. enjoy the pleasure of running8. By telling her own story, the writer wanted to .A. tell us to live a life of our ownB. inspire more people to runC. improve our health by runningD. stress the importance of determinationCOne day, Jack threw s ome papers on my desk. “What’s wrong?” I asked. “Next time you want to change anything, ask me first,” he said, and left. I had made just one small change. But it’s not that I hadn’t warned. My colleagues had said he was responsible for the resignations（辞职）of the two previous secretaries. As the weeks went by, I came to look down on Jack.After another of his episodes(片段) had left me in tears, I stormed into his office. “Jack, the way you’ve been treating me is wrong. I’ve never had anyone speak to me that way. As a professional, it’s wrong for me to allow it to continue,” I said. Jack smiled nervously, “Susan, I make you a promise that I will be a friend. I will treat you as you deserve to be treated, with respect and kindness.”Jack avoided me the rest of the week, and never questioned my work again. I brought cookies to the office one day and left some on his desk. Another day I left a note: ”Hope your day is going great. ” Over the next few weeks, there were no more Jack episodes. One year later I discov ered I had breast cancer, and was scared. The statistics（数据）were not great for my long-term survival. One day, however, Jack visited me in the hospital and silently handed me a bundle with several bulbs inside. “Tulips(郁金香),” he said. I smiled, not understanding. “If you plant them when youget home, they’ll come up next spring. I think you will be there to see them when they come up. Next spring you will see the colors I picked out for you.” Tears clouded my eyes and he left. I have seen those red and white striped（有条纹的）tulips push through the soil every spring for over ten years now. This past September the doctor declared me cured. At a moment when I was praying for just the right word, a man with very few words said all the right things. After all, tha t’s what friends do.9. Jack became angry that day because__________.A. he was feeling unwellB. Susan had failed to keep his office cleanC. he felt Susan changed too much about the papersD. Susan had changed something without his permission10. Which of the following describes Susan?A. Moody but friendly.B. Shy and demandingC. Confident and friendly.D. Tough and troublesome.11. From the passage, we can conclude that__________.A. Jack cares about his employeesB. Jack gets along well with his employeesC. Jack is always particular about his workD. Jack doesn’t care about the feelings of others12. We can infer from the passage that__________.A. a friend in need is a friend in deedB. a few words can be as meaningful as manyC. a friend who says little must be a good friendD. we must treat disrespectful people with disrespectDI am truly frustrated by the way my teenage children behave with me. It is a roller coaster(过山车)ride each day dealing with their moodiness and argumentative nature. But I do appreciate the courage they project at times and goals they undertake. They make me feel that they really aim high in life.” This could be the feeling of most parents with teenage children.I understand these parents. They are not alone. Children start their journey into the broad world and are greatly influenced by what others have to say, especially their peers（同辈）that theyconsider closer than even their parents and family.The brains of teenagers in the ages of 13 to 19 experience a lot of changes that bring about these effects that most parents like us fail to understand. One of the main changes is what takes place due to the beneficial pruning (修剪)that takes place in the branches of the prefrontal cortex(前额皮质). All these changes eventually help build clear judgment, plan and control impulses （冲动）. It is best that we just recall how we behaved as a teenager and you would surely come across some of our mums that support their teenage grandchildren and say we were much worse. Taking a positive look by realizing that it is a part of the growing process would help.We may tell our teenage children to have confidence in their abilities and not be influenced by what others say of them, but this anxiety of what society says of them can be overwhelming. It could be real huge pressure that teens can never tell parents, but it would pay to build up trustworthy relationships with them. This would help keep a watch and monitor some of their wrong activities and avoid their getting into trouble due to peer pressure.13. What does the underline word in the last paragraph mean?A. poor.B. smallC. big.D. good14. According to the passage, teenagers’ personality is most affected by .A. parentsB. teachersC. friendsD. peers15. What is the best title for the passage?A. Understand Your TeenagersB. Why do Teenagers Change?C. Give Confidence to TeenagersD. Learn to Love Your Teenagers第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

From birth, Moana is a respected part o f her community, and her parents and grandmother are proud of who she is and the fact 29________ she will one day make a fantastic chief, just like her father and his father before him. There is no love interest for Moana – she doesn’t need one.More importantly, 30________ mothers and fathers tell their da ughters what it means to be a princess, the words “adventuro us,”“*tenacious” and “compassionate” can now be added to t he definition.(B)The “space race” took place between the United States and th e former Soviet Union.

However, the prize wasn’t give n for his 2004 self-penned autobiography but “for having created new poetic exp ressions within the great American song tradition.”It is certainly a(n) 42________choice. According to Steve Johnson of the Chicago Tribune, arts awards have almost always exclusively had an inherent bias toward so-called “high culture”, a category 43________ not to include pe ople who got their start singing in coffeehouses.With that said, the Swedish Academy has made a bold 44___ _____ to expand the definition of “literature”. It has, effect, ope ned the doors to popular culture, often 45_______ to as “low c ulture”.We live in a world where people who read comic books, watc h television shows, listen to podcasts and pop music, are ofte n also those who enjoy poetry and opera. And the Nobel, in 4 6 __________ Dylan’s work as literature, acknowledges that ar tists create works of popular culture with just as much care, c ontrol, courage and 47________ as Ernest Hemingway did sitti ng down at his typewriter.Dylan experts can battle over whether or not the singer indee d writes poetry- he was given the prize for his lyrics and music .If music and lyrics count as literature, as plays have done, co uld not other forms? Could we, someday, see a Nobel in litera ture go to US TV producers David Simon, Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki, or even US singer Beyonce?As Los Angeles Times pop music 48________ Robert Hilburnsaid about Dylan’s work: “He’s great cultural figure because of his words and his ideas.”And for all the flash and bang of any performed art or filmed project, it’s the words that 49 _________, wrote Carolyn Kellog g of the Los Angeles Times.American TV series Breaking Bad (2008-2013) didn’t exist without US actor Bryan Cranston’s brilliant p erformance--but he couldn't have gotten there without the words on the pa ge.Dylan’s Nobel says that words don't have to be bound within 50. ________ to be literature. It’s possible the Swedish Acade my will back off its radical choice. But for now, literature is all around us.

Flowering plants us ually produce seeds that are 51. __________ in fruits. The scie ntific name for such a plan is angiosperm (被子植物). The fruit covering makes seeds more likely to be scattere d over a wide area by animals, wind, or water. A plant that gro ws in many area is less likely to become 52. ________ than on e that grows in only one area. The fruit of an angiosperm is no t necessarily something that people can eat. In this case, the word fruit simply refers to the mass of plant tissue that surrou nds the send. Some angiosperm fruits are actually poisonous. Angiosperms depend on male and female flower parts to prod uce their seeds and fruits. At the center of the flower is the pis til, a female part that 53________ of a long column with a roun d base called an ovary (子房). Inside the ovary are the tiny ovules (胚珠) that become seeds if they are fertilized. 54__________occ urs when pollen from a stamen, a male flower parts, joins the ovule inside the ovary. Pollen that reaches the tip of the pistil grows a long tube down into the ovary. Once pollen joins the ovule inside the ovary, a seed begins to form, the ovary beco mes fruits, and the other flower parts wither and die.The form of a fruit 55__________ the manner in which seeds a re scattered. For example, birds and other animals may eat s oft, fleshy fruits, such as berries. These animals deposit the s eeds in their 56_________, usually far from the parent plants. Some hard-shelled fruits that 57________- such as coconuts- are carried by water to faraway regions. Some other types of fruits rely on the wind to scatter their seeds. The milkweed 58. _________ f ruit in the form of dry seedpods that grow until they burst. Onc e the seedpods burst, hundreds of seeds, each attached to m any light, silken threads, are carried off by the wind.No matter how much angiosperm fruits and seeds may differ, each seed contains the same blueprint for 59. ________. Unde r the right conditions, the tiny embryo within the seed grows in to a new plant. The embryo is made up of a root, a shoot, and one or two seed-leaves called cotyledons (子叶), which provide food for the sprouting plant. As the seed sp outs, the root anchors the seeding in the earth, and the shoot grows up through the soil. As soon as the seeding penetrates the soil’s 60. _________, it begins to grow its first true leaves.IV.

Reading ComprehensionSection A.Directions: Read the following four passage. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For e ach of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Ch oose the one that fits best according to the information given i n the passage you have just read.(A)As has been all too apparent in recent days at Balcombe, few issues cause greater concern than energy policy. Many villag e communities feel their countryside is being ruined by the po wer-producing machines of wind farms; yet they never take "direct action", even though the planning laws put them at a severe disadvantage. And the generous subsidies (财政补贴) , which encourage the expansion of wind power, are not favorable to the village communities and set landowners in confl ict with other residents (居民) .Those who disagree with the rapid expansion of wind farms state that the damage they cause is out of proportion(比例) to the benefits they bring, because their energy output can not match that of the carbon-based power stations they are supposed to replace. Supporte rs insist that wind must be part of a mix of renewables, nuclea r and carbon, and that the country is committed to meeting E U ( European Union) targets for non-carbon energy generation.Against this background, the fact that there is an argument within the Government over whether to publish an official repo rt on wind farms" impact on the countryside becomes even m ore extraordinary. The two parties in the coalition (联合) government are in disagreement over what it should say. We have some advice for the two parties: publish the report , and let the country be the judge. Even if it contains evidenc e that wind farms are harmful, it will hardly be a pleasant surp rise to people who do not like them. Equally, supporters must argue their case by acknowledging the concerns and explaini ng why they are either misplaced or worthy of much attention. The suggestion that further negotiations are to take place t o produce an "acceptable" report suggests that the politics ofcoalition government are doing the country harm in a certain way. Given the sensitivities involved, all the information shoul d be available so that people can reach their own conclusions , rather than being left with the suspicion（猜疑）that facts are being replaced by political beliefs.76. We can learn from the first paragraph that__________.A．energy policy catches much attention of the publicB．the residents are in favor of the expansion of wind farmsC．many village communities are satisfied with the s ubsidiesD．the planning laws offer great benefits to the residents77. Supporters think that the expansion of wind power____. A．is more rapid than that of carbon-based power B．guarantees an increase in energy outputC．is expected to be much better than that of nuclearpowerD．agrees with EU targets for non-carbon energy generation78. It can be inferred from the passage that____. A．an official report will settle the energy problemB．the two parties are divided over the issue of wind farmsC．the two parties have agreed on a further negotiati onD．political beliefs concerning energy issue go again st facts79. Which of the following reflects the author’s opinion? A．Increase political impact on energy policy.B．Release a statement of supporters on wind farms .C．Let the nation judge the facts about wind power. D．Leave the two parties to reach their own conclusi ons.(B)HOLIDAY FUN AT THE FOWERHOUSE500 HARRIS STREET ULTIMO TELEPHONE (02)9270111 Join in the holiday fun at the powerhouse this month linked to our new exhibition, Evolution & Revolution: Chinese dress 17 00s to now.

Never before have we seen people working together who represent such different ba ckgrounds and experiences. This difference of age, race, gen der, and work style makes it very difficult to organize and run a company.As a result, companies are looking for individuals who can ma nage a wide range of employees effectively. Increasingly, ma nagers are discovering that age differences among workers ar e a major cause of concern.This has been an important realization. The management diffi culties and challenges have led some experts to study interge nerational differences for an understanding of problems in the workplace. What they have discovered is interesting and may provide ways of improving working conditions in companies t hat employ individuals from different generations.The first thing to realize, they say, is that differences of opinio n about the importance of work and how to get work done are not a coincidence. That is, it is not an accident that young em ployees will be different from older employees. In fact, if empl oyers do not pay attention to these differences, it is possible t hat anger will build up between people and lead to difficulties i n the company.Resentment (仇恨) between members of different generations, if not attended to, can lead to extreme anger and unhappiness and even last ing enmity if people are not careful. That individuals from diffe rent generations should come to view each other as if they we re from different sides of warring countries should not be surp rising.It is natural for individuals from the same generation to form al liances (联盟), to come together for protection. Different generations repr esent different experiences in life, and these lead naturally to different opinions about oneself and one’s approaches to wor k.If you were raised in a time of plenty, when products were rea dily available and relatively inexpensive, you would believe th at prosperity is natural and expectable. If, on the other hand, y ou were raised in a time of scarcity, you would always be care ful not to waste things for fear you would not have enough. Yo u would make angry people who seem to believe that problem s will always solve themselves. Such optimism in the face of d ifficulties would be a source of unhappiness between you and them. It is difficult, in such circumstances, to achieve a happy, agreeable atmosphere in the workplace.84. What most possibly makes it difficult to organize or run a c ompany?A. Employees are in different generations.B. Employees are of different backgrounds.C. Employees work in different styles.D. Employees are in different races.85. Employers should pay attention to ______ if they want to a void anger between employees.A. the different understanding of problems in the workplaceB. the different views on value of work and working methodsC. the different generations of employees in the workplaceD. the different ways of expressing anger in the company86. The word “enmity” is closet in meaning to ______.A. hatredB. sorrowsC. ignoranceD. forgiveness87. What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage?A. Employees should be cooperative and friendly with each ot her.B. It is difficult for employers to have workers work in a friendl y way.C. The weakness of human nature causes the anger betweenemployees.D. The generational differences cause the disharmony among employees.(D)Charles Dickens’ novel A Tale of Two Cities is set in the years before and during the French Revolution (1789 - 1799). Durin g its course, French revolutionaries brought down the empire and established a republic of free and equal citizens.In reading the work, one sees that Dickens distorted some det ails of the French Revolution. At the beginning, Dickens notes that, in 1775, France was busy spending money. This mentio n of France’s spending touches briefly on what is perhaps the major cause of the French Revolution. Before the revolution, t he government often borrowed money because it spent more than it raised in taxes. The increased spending and borrowing made many people’s blood boil, yet Dickens focused instead on the nobility’s oppression and exploitation of the working cla ss, including peasants, as the causes of the revolution.The Marquis, one of the book’s characters, ill-treats and kills many people. Thus, he represents the nobles who mistreat the lower classes. One reviewer criticized this pi cture as an unfair representation of French society in the mid-1700s. The reviewer pointed out that the government would have punished nobles who mistreated or murdered. Nobles ma y have been guilty of other evils, however, such as not feedin g the starving masses after bad weather ruined crops in 1789.Dickens’ account of the storming of the Bastille fails to mentio n that the gang that stormed the prison was looking for bullets and bombs to use in defense against a possible attack by the king’s troops. Dickens does include some accurate details, h owever, such as the crowd’s finding only seven prisoners and freeing them and the pack’s executing (处决) the prison administrator and sticking his head on a post. T he scene that the women knit (编织) as they watch the executions may seem to be an odd deta il, but actually many women did knit stockings for the war effor t as they watched the killing machine at work.Dickens’ descriptions of the steady stream of sentenced peopl e into prison and the carts taking them to their deaths give rea ders some idea of the frequency with which officials jailed and executed people during the Rule of Terror, which lasted abou t a year. During the Terror, the government jailed about 250 th ousand people, tried (审判) and killed about 17 thousand, and executed about 12 thou sand without a trial. Those executed included people who opposed the revolution, people who offended the revolutionaries, and even some revolutionaries. About 15 percent were memb ers of the ministry or nobility.8 8 .What does the word “distorted” in Paragraph 2 mos t probably mean?A. Discussed.B. Revealed.C. Provided.D. Twisted.8 9 .Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. A wild crowd rushed into the Bastille to fight with the royal soldiers.B. The nobles’ mistreating and killing people is the main cause of the revolution.C. About thirty thousand people lost their lives in th e course of the Rule of Terror.D. Women were forced to work for the war supplies while watching people killed.9.What can be inferred from the passage?A. Dickens was once among the revolutionaries sto rming the Bastille.B. There was an extreme disorder and horror durin g the revolution.C. Nobles of those days in France were loaded with heavy social responsibilities.D. Classic literary works may serve as history textb ooks to a great degree.9 1 .Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. The Collapse of the French EmpireB. Unknown Facts during the Rule of TerrorC. Dickens’ Description of the French RevolutionD. A Critical View on A Tale of Two CitiesSection BDirection: In the following article, 4 sentences have been rem oved. Choose the most suitable ones from the list A-AC to fit into each of the numbered gaps. There are TWO whi ch do not fit in any of the gaps.A. Therefore, what economists try to do is to persuade people to reduce missed opportunities to save the cost.B. For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another, or be sleeping or watching a film.C. The biggest restriction on our resources is the number of h ours we can devote to something, so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time.D. We should weigh the choices of opportunities, learning to g ive up for better ones and obtaining what we want besides pro fits.AB. For economists, every decision is made by knowledge of what one must forgo—in terms of money and enjoyment –in order to take it up.AC. Yet, in a sense it’s human nature to do precisely that –we assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time.。

ASmoking is harmful. But as soon as you quit the habit, everything will be OK, right?Wrong.New research has found that even if you give up smoking, the damage it has done to your genes (基因) will stay there for a much longer time.In the research, a team of US scientists studied the blood of 16,000 people. Among them, some were smokers, some used to smoke, and the rest were non-smokers. Scientists compared their genes and found that more than 7,000 genes of smokers had changed--a number that is one-third of known human genes.According to NBC News, both heart disease and cancer are caused by genetic changes. Some people may have had the changes when they were born, but most people get them in their day-to-day lives while doing things like smoking.When you stop smoking, a lot of these genes will return to normal within five years.This means your body is trying to heal (治愈) itself of the harmful effects of smoking. But the changes in some of the genes stay for longer. They can stay for as long as 30 years, It’s almost like leaving a footprint on wet cement (水泥)----it will always be there, even when you’ve walked away and when the cement becomes dry.Although the study results may make people unhappy, there is a bright side: the findings could help scientists invent medicine to treat genetic damage caused by smoking or find ways to tell which people have heart disease or cancer risks.1. The function of Paragraph 1 is to_________ .A. introduce the topic of the passageB. give an exampleC. make an argumentD. show the main idea of the passage2. Most genetic changes happen because of___________ .A. people’s condition at birthB. environmental pollutionC. people’s bad living habitD. heart disease and cancer3. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refers to__________ .A. the footprintB. the cement...C. the harmful effectD. the genetic change4. Which of the following statements is true?A. The findings are the fruit of more than three years’ research.B. The findings have prevented more people from starting smokingC. The findings offer evidence that a damaged gene can heal itself.D. The findings help to find cures for genetic damage caused by smoking.【答案】1. A 2. C 3. A 4. D【解析】抽烟有害健康，停止抽烟就会一切好起来吗？文章给出了科学的证据陈述这是一种错误的观点。

The truth is that everyone has a great love for designer clothes. However, the important thing is to have a positive attitude towards them. Here are some useful tips:First, have a direct talk with your parents about why you want the clothes and how much they cost. You never know, they might change their minds. If not, change your view on designer clothes. Clever people never judge a person by the clothes he wears. In my opinion, clothes are part of life, not all. People don’t think too much of it. There are other thin gs in life besides fashion. Don’t you think so?All the best!YoursLi Hua。
