Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.If this summer you pay a visit to Milan, the fashion center of Italy, make sure you’re not caught eating ice cream in the streets after midnight as doing so is now ___41___.A new law was passed by Milan’s city council banning the sale of take-away food and drinks after midnight in some districts which are famous for their nightlife ___42___. The purpose of this unusual move is, according to the city council, to discourage night gathering in downtown areas.The law inevitably has given rise to a number of protests, accusing that the government has ___43___ people’s normal lives. However, if you take into consideration the country’s ___44___ economy and its high unemployment rate, the local government’s fear of ‘night assembling’may be reasonable.In fact, Milan’s law is only the strangest of a host of restrictions on nightlife that have ___45___ up in European cities recently. Madrid’s citycenter was declared a ‘low-noise zone’ last September and the city council has been refusing to ___46___ bar and club licenses ever since.Why do European cities deal so strictly with nightlife? It may be because Europe’s population is getting older and can no longer ___47___ late night activities within the neighborhood.In the past, bars and clubs bloomed in European city centers, which were ___48___ to working class populations. But gradually, these people began to move out of the city centers and into the suburbs. Only the wealthy and the upper-class people can afford to live in ___49___ centers now. But these people don’t go to bars and clubs to socialize. Instead, they consider fun-seekers who wander in their neighborhoods annoying. They also worry that bars and clubs will make their neighborhoods less ___50___ and devalue their housing property.III. Reading prehension(47%)Section ADirections:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Many of us have characteristics that are inherited from our families. Maybewe have our father’s eyes or our grandmother’s hair color – __51__ features that result from the genes we inherit. But there are other elements of our personalities such as behaviors and viewpoints that we pick up by __52__ our parents. Perhaps we have picked up our mother’s love of cleaning or our dad’s sense of humor. Now, researchers at the University of Michigan believe there may be a specific viewpoint we can thank our parents for: the way we __53__ work.The researchers referred to previous studies that identified three main ways of viewing work.First, there are job-oriented (以求职为目的的)people, those who __54__ to see their job as simply a way to make money. They __55__ to clocking out(打卡下班)every day and pursuing fun activities __56__ the office. If you have a job-oriented father, you may view work this way. __57__, if you grew up close to your mother you probably will not hold this viewpoint. One possible __58__ cited by the study: Youngsters that grow up close to their mothers are less likely to view work as just a job.Second, there are career-oriented(追求事业型的)people who see their job as a place to find __59__ and gain a sense of __60__. These are the people who don’t __61__ working overtime. In fact, some people love their jobs so much that they bee workaholics! They are more fortable in the office than at home. According tothe study, being close to a career- oriented father while growing up means there’s a good chance you’ll share his perspective. Oddly, having a mother with this viewpoint seems to have little __62__.Third, there are calling-oriented workers – folks who view their job as a way to make a (n) __63__ impact upon the world. They are more __64__ with improving the world around them than earning a large salary. In the study, those who expressed a strong calling (天职)orientation came from homes where both parents were calling-oriented. This suggests that adolescents need the support of both parents in order to have the confidence to put __65__ first and career success second.The good news is –we still have choice. Whether we share our parents’views of work or not, we can still find a career that suits us.51. A. medical B. physical C. biological D. mental52. A. stimulating B. neglecting C. implying D. modeling53. A. view B. think C. evaluate D. ment54. A. attempt B. manage C. tend D. offer55.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)On “Super Bowl Sunday”, millions of Americans are glued to their TVs. They are eating pizza, chicken wings and chips and cheering every move. They’re watching the Super Bowl.Why are Americans so crazy about American football? Well, it is more exciting than other sports. One team can lose possession of the ball in a minute, which may allow their opponents to make a touchdown(触地得分). Then that team may win the game unexpectedly.The Super Bowl also entertains its audience with a great halftime show. The football field is turned into a stage. Then an impressive performance of dancing and singing with special effects occurs.Since the Super Bowl is the most-watched TV program in America, mercial airtime is also very expensive. Big money is also spent on mercials. They draw the viewers’attention and advertise their image or products during the mercial break.After football season, the “March Madness”begins. The NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) petitions begin with 68 men’s collegebasketball teams. They play until the field is reduced to the “Final Four”. The winning team bees the national champion. The NBA (National Basketball Association) All-Star game is also held in February. The best players from all the teams play in this game.Baseball is no doubt American’s national sport. From grandpas to young kids, whole families go to ball games together. They wear their favorite team’s caps or even carry their mascot(吉祥物). Our family went to watch Wang Chien-Ming play in D.C. once. We ate hot dogs, waved flags and sang during the 7th inning(棒球的一局) stretch.If you are not a sports fan yet, e and pick a sport or a team. Go to a ball game with your family, and cheer your team on. Sports are definitely a part of American culture one should not miss.66.

With all this ing and going, you’d expect greater understanding to develop between the nations of the world. Not a bit of it! Superb systems of munication by air, sea and land make it possible for us to visit each other ’s countries at a moderate cost. What was once the ‘grand tour ’, reserved for only the very rich, is now within everybody ’s grasp? The package tour and chartered flights are not to be sneered at. Modern travelers enjoy a level of fort which the lords and ladies on grand tours in the old days couldn’t have dreamed of. But what ’s the sense of this mass exchange of populations if the nations of the world remain basically ignorant of each other? Many tourist organizations are directly responsible for this state of affairs. They deliberately set out to protect their clients from too much contact with the local population. The modern tourist leads a cosseted, sheltered life. He lives at international hotels, where he eats his international food and sips his international drink while he gazes at the natives from a distance. Conducted tours to places of interest are carefully censored. The tourist is allowed to see only what the organizers want him to see and no more. A strict schedule makes itimpossible for the tourist to wander off on his own; and anyway, language is always a barrier, so he is only too happy to be protected in this way. At its very worst, this leads to a new and hideous kind of colonization. The summer quarters of the inhabitants of the cite universitaire: are temporarily reestablished on the island of Corfu. Blackpool is recreated at Torremolinos where the traveler goes not to eat paella, but fish and chips.The sad thing about this situation is that it leads to the persistence of national stereotypes. We don’t see the people of other nations as they really are, but as we have been brought up to believe they are. You can test this for yourself. Take five nationalities, say, French, German, English, American and Italian. Now in your mind, match them with these five adjectives: musical, amorous, cold, pedantic, native. Far from providing us with any insight into the national characteristics of the peoples just mentioned, these adjectives actually act as barriers. So when you set out on your travels, the only characteristics you notice are those which confirm your preconceptions. You e away with the highly unoriginal and inaccurate impression that, say, ‘Anglo-Saxons are hypocrites’ of that ‘Latin peoples shout a lot ’. You only have to make a few foreign friends to understand how absurd and harmful national stereotypes are. But how can you make foreign friends when the tourist trade does its best to prevent you?Carried to an extreme, stereotypes can be positively dangerous. Wild generalizations stir up racial hatred and blind us to the basic fact—how triteit sounds! – That all people are human. We are all similar to each other and atthe same time all unique.74.The passage mainly wants to tell us________A.tourism contributes nothing to increasing understanding between nations.B.Tourism is tiresome.C.Conducted tour is dull.D. tourism really does something to one’s country.75.What is the author's attitude toward tourism?A.apprehensive.B.negative.C.critical.D. appreciative.76.The word”cosseted” (para 2 line 3) probably means_____A.over-protectedB.variedC.limitedD.luxurious77.What is ‘grand tour’ now?A. moderate cost.B. local sight-seeing is investigated by the tourist organization.C.people enjoy the first-rate forts.D.everybody can enjoy the ‘grand tour’.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or plete the statements in the fewest possible words.Yes, but what did we use to do before there was television? How often we hear statements like this! Television hasn’t been with us all that long, but we are already beginning to forget what the world was like without it. Before we admitted the one-eyed monster into our homes, we never fond it difficult to occupy our spare time. We used to enjoy civilized pleasures. For instance, we used to have hobbies, we used to entertain our friends and be entertained by them, we used to go outside for our amusements to theatres, cinemas, restaurants and sporting events. We even used to read books and listen to music and broadcast talks occasionally. All that belongs to the past. Now all our free time is regulated by the goggle box. We rush home or gulp down our meals to be in time for this or that programme. We have even given up sitting at table and having a leisurely evening meal, exchanging the news of the day. A sandwich and a glass of beer will do – anything, providing it doesn’t interfere with the programme. The monster demands and obtains absolute silence and attention. If any member of the family dares to open his mouth during aprogramme, he is quickly silenced.Whole generations are growing up addicted to the telly. Food is left uneaten, homework undone and sleep is lost. The telly is a universal pacifier. It is now standard practice for mother to keep the children quiet by putting them in the living-room and turning on the set. It doesn’t matter that the children will watch rubbishy mercials or spectacles of sadism and violence – so long as they are quiet.There is a limit to the amount of creative talent available in the world. Every day, television consumes vast quantities of creative work. That is why most of the programmes are so bad: it is impossible to keep pace with the demand and maintain high standards as well. When millions watch the same programmes, the whole world bees a village, and society is reduced to the conditions which obtain in preliterate munities. We bee utterly dependent on the two most primitive media of munication: pictures and the spoken word.Television encourages passive enjoyment. We bee content with second-hand experiences. It is so easy to sit in our armchairs watching others working. Little by little, television cuts us off from the real world. We get so lazy, we choose to spend a fine day in semi-darkness, glued to our sets, rather than go out into the world itself. Television may be s splendid medium of munication, but itprevents us from municating with each other. We only bee aware how totally irrelevant television is to real living when we spend a holiday by the sea or in the mountains, far away from civilization. In quiet, natural surroundings, we quickly discover how little we miss the hypnotic tyranny of King Telly.78.What does a mother usually do to keep her children quiet?_______________________________________________________________________ ___79.what’s the author’s suggestion to forget TV?_________________________________________80.&81Please smmerize at least two harms of TV80.__________________________________________________________________________ __81.__________________________________________________________________________ __第II卷I.

One way in which adults can develop their interest in a new subject is to search the Internet. A potentially much richer way is to wander through a learning environment, such as a science museum, _____31 _____out in a systematic way to introduce visitors to particular subjects. With the help of audiovisual aids, computer-_____32_____ instruction and other devices, a museum can bring a subject alive in ways that compare _____33_____ with a television programme, or a book. The kind of help that museums can give to adults can equally well be given to children, and to teachers whose pupils have come to the museum for specific _____34_____ .At a time when the demand for public accountability has never been greater, it is worth remembering that many museums receive substantial grants towards what is supposed to be stimulating educational _____35_____ for the general public.Museums accepting these grants, yet offering little more than the_____ 36_____ public lecture, or very minimal help to schoolteacher arriving at the museum with their pupils, therefore risk having such financial support severely cut back, or even _____37_____.Why is this done? The idea is that museums should not simply be aiming to be popular and entertaining, they should also be truly _____38_____ learning environments. Given that this is their aim, they should not just spread facts and theories. They should show the visitor exactly what to do with the information provided. Isolated pieces of information, _____39_____ as they may be. do not encourage museum visitors to use their intelligence. For example, if told that some fleas can jump 130 times their own height, visitors simply have no idea of how to apply this _____40_____ unless they are clearly pointed in the right direction.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.At a time when scientists know more than they ever have before about the inner lives of animals and when concerns about animal rights become large—many experts think that zoos need a major change if they're going to last.To some leaders in the field, the Philadelphia Zoo is the best model out there, but on the other side of the country; a _____41_____ vision of the future is playing out. At Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo, the elephant exhibit, where countless children have watched elephants play, now sits _____42_____ . The zoo, long _____43_____ as a world leader in innovative design, built a $3 million state-of-the-art facility for the species in the 1980s. But in recent years, animal-rights advocates had criticized the exhibit as inhumane for being too small and not _____44_____ the elephants' natural living area. Under pressure from activists following the death of an elephant in 2014, and thanks to new guidelines from the nation's main zoo organization, Woodland Park officials decided to _____45_____ one of its most popular exhibits and place the elephants elsewhere.Nearly two centuries after the first modern zoo opened in London's Regent's Park, the very concept of a place where families can visit and observe animals is being _____46_____ like never before. Across the US and around the world, zoos are finding that balancing the demands of entertainment, education and conservation is increasingly _____47_____. Ethical(伦理的)concerns have been coupled with _____48_____ fears—both for people and for animals—following an incident in May when officials at the Cincinnati Zoo shot and killed a 17-year-old gorilla named Haram be to protect a child who'd fallen into the exhibit. More _____49_____, there's a greater sensitivity to the environmental implications of zoos.Ask a dozen zoo directors why these places should exist today and you'll get a different answer every time. Education, conservation and science all _____50_____. But the _____51_____ answer -cultivating sympathy for animals—is becoming harder to do while providing humane care to these animals.Study after study has shown that many animal species are far smarter and more _____52_____ than previously understood, giving new insights into how they may suffer from anxiety and depression when they are removed from _____53_____. That has forced a difficult existential question: If we acknowledge that creatures suffer when they're trapped, should they be kept in zoos? Not even those who have _____54_____ the cause for more humane exhibits have an answer. "Even the best zoos today are based on captivity and coercion(囚禁与胁迫)”,says Jon Coe, the legendary zoo designer "To me. that's the _____55_____ fault.”41.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)A 27-year-old graphic designer from Oxfordshire in England completed a record-breaking journey across Australia yesterday. It was a 5,800 kilometre journey—and he travelled the whole distance on a skateboard. David Cornthwaite, who started skateboarding less than two years ago, decided on his journey after waking up one morning and realising he hated his job. 'I thought the only thing keeping me going is the skate to and from work. I was looking for something new/ he said. "I saw a Lonely Planet guide to Australia. There was a map on the back. Perth was on one side and Brisbane on the other and I thought, 'that'll do”.He decided to prepare by skateboarding from John O'Groats to Lands End: the two points further apart on the British mainland. That 1,442 kilometre journey, which he finished in June, took just over a month, during which an infected blister (水泡)swelled to the 'size of a tennis ball’. Crossing Australia on a skateboard brough unique challenges. The wind caused by huge road trains, the lorries that thunder across the Outback, was so powerful that he was sometimes blown off his board. Multiple blisters and aching ankles, toes and feet, have kept him in almost constant pain for the last six weeks. ,I feel like an old man. I'm not sure that anyone has ever had this many blisters/ he said. Temperatures of 40cC and above mean that he has used more than a dozen tubes of factor 30 sunscreen. 'There have been moments where I thought "this is ridiculous. I have to rest”,but I never considered giving up.’Skating an average of 50 kilometres a day and hitting speeds of up to 50kph on downhill runs, he left Perth. Western Australia, and skated across the fearsome Nullarbor Plain into South Australia. After reaching Adelaide he made his way to Melbourne and from there to Sydney A support team of seven people trailed from all the way in a four-wheel drive vehicle, which included camping equipment for night shops. The journey has smashed the previous record for a long-distance skateboard, set by an American, Jack Smith, who covered 4,800 kilometres across the US in 2003. David Comthwaite was less than three kilometres from the end of his epic journey when he hit a hole and was thrown off his skateboard, suffering cuts and bruises to his shoulders, knees, hips and elbows. ‘I was only going to 40km at the time, so although it wasn't pretty; it could have been a lot worse,’ he said.56. Why did David Comthwaite decide to skateboard across Australia?A. He wanted to break a world record.B. He was an experienced skateboarderC. He wanted to try something different.D. He was given a guidebook about Australia.51. What made David fall of his skateboard several times in Australia?A. The injuries on his feet.B. The thunderstorms in the Outback.C. The trains that race across the Outback.D. The wind created by huge lorries going past.58. Which of the following statements is true of David while he was on the journey?A. He slept in a tent during the journey.B. He skated at an average speed of 50 kph.C. He thought of giving up the journey halfway.D. He was sunburned due to the misuse of sunscreen.(B)Often enough the craft worker's place of employment in ancient Greece was set in rural isolation. Potter, for instance, found it convenient to locate their workshops near their source of clay, regardless of its relation to the center of settlement. At Corinth and Athens, however, two of the best-known potters' quarters were situated on the cities’ outskirts, and potters and makers of terra-cotta figurines (陶制俑)were also established well within the city of Athens itself Athenian black-figure and red-figure decoration, which emphasized human figures rather than animal images, was adopted between 630 and 530 B.C.: its distinctive color was the result of the skillful adjustments of the kiln’s (窑) temperature during an extended three-stage period. Whether it was the potters or the vase-painters who initiated changes in firing is unclear; the functions of making and decorating were usually divided between them, but neither group can have been so specialized that they did not share in the concerns of the other.The broad use of terra-cotta was such that workers in clay could generally afford to limit . themselves to either decorated ware and housewares like cooking pots and storage jars or building materials. Some sixth-and fifth-century B.C. Athenian pottery establishments are known to have concentrated on a limited range of fine ware, but a rural pottery establishment on the island of Thasos produced many types of pottery and roof tiles too, presumably to meet local demand. Molds were used to create particular effects for some products or to facilitate mass production. There were also a number of poor-quality figurines and painted pots produced in quantity by easy, inexpensive means, as numerous featureless statuettes and unattractive cases testify.60. The passage mainly discusses ancient Greek pottery and its__________.A. unusual materialsB. production techniquesC. similarity to other craftsD. resemblance to earlier pottery61 . Which of the following advantage did terra-cotta have?A. It had a lasting shine on the surface.B. It could be used for many purposes.C. It did not break during the firing process.D. It was less expensive than other available materials.62. Which of the following statements is true of ancient Greek potters and vase painters?A. They seldom produced inferior ware.B. They stuck to their way of producing pieces.C. It is almost impossible to draw a clear line between them.D. It is hard to explain why they didn't make any human images’(C)How does one protect elephants from ivory poachers (象牙偷猎者)in an African reserve the size of a small country? This task typically falls to park rangers who may spend weeks patrolling the bush on foot sometimes lacking basic devices such as radios, tents or even socks. They are largely losing to poachers.To stop the losses, conservationists are increasingly turning to technology. The latest tools include real-time tracking collars, developed by the Kenya-based nonprofit Save the Elephants and currently being used on more than 325 animals in 10 countries--- The organization's researchers wrote algorithms (算法)that use signals from the collars to automatically detect when an animal stops moving (indicating it may be dead), slows down (suggesting it may be injured) or heads toward a danger zone, such as an area known for poaching. Unlike traditional tracking collars, many of which send geographical coordinates infrequently or store them onboard for later retrieval, these devices' real-time feeds enable rangers to react quickly. In several cases, they have led to arrests.The amount of data produced by the new collars quickly became overwhelming, however. So Save the Elephants partnered with Vulcan- a company created by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen—which engineered an open-source tracking application for iOS and the Web called the Domain Awareness System. The DAS app sends alerts when a potential problem arises—if field sensors pick up on human intruders, for example. It also integrates a wealth of other information, including the positions of nearby rangers, vehicles and aircraft, as well as detected gunshots, camera trap feeds, arrest and crime-scene records, weather, and more.Some of the technologies used in the collars—GPS, onboard data storage, phone or satellite receivers—are found in everyday devices, including smartphones. Yet in this case these tools are being applied in an exceptional way, according to Jake Wall, geospatial science adviser for Save the Elephants. It is the first time all the data that DAS uses have been presented in one neat feed and map, he says.An early version of the program is being tested at four sites in Africa, with a 10-site expansion planned for September. At Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya, DAS is already seen as a game changer after its launch less than a year ago, says Batian Craig, director of 51 Degrees, a private company that oversees security operations at Lewa.63. The latest tracking collars are different from traditional ones in that __________.A. they can send signals immediatelyB. they withdraw information at any timeC. they can store more information onboardD. they send geographical coordinates infrequently64. Why did Save the Elephants partner with Vulcan?A. It has met with financial problems.B. It hopes to make a big profit in the future.C. It doesn't know how to advance its collar.D. It can't handle the collected data very well.65. What does Batian Craig say about DAS?A. It will make a big difference.B. It was launched in September.C. It will have a new version soon.D. It needs to be tested at more sites.66. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. How Elephants LiveB. Find My ElephantC. Elephant-Friendly AreasD. Elephants VS PoachersSection CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once.

Discovered accidentally in 1974, in Xi'an Province, in China, when local farmers were digging for water, over 8.000 baked clay figures have since been found.__________67__________ Emperor Qin was one of the most important rulers in Chinese history. After becoming emperor of the state of Qin at the age of 13. he conquered six other states over the next 25 years, and became the first emperor of a united China.In Qin's time, the ancient Chinese believed that their "afterlife" was very similar to the life on earth. Consequently, when they died and were buried, objects which would be useful to them in the next life were buried with them. __________ 68__________ In addition, the emperor ordered an army to be built so that his palace would be protected.__________69__________ In ancient China, however, they used a completely different method.A huge production line was established to make the tens of thousands of individual human and animal statues which Emperor Qin demanded. All the different pails of the body such as legs, arms, and heads were made separately and then assembled. The same process was also used for other pieces such as ears, beards, and armour. When the whole figure was completed, it was baked in an oven.The terracotta figures are life-like and life-sized. Each one has a different facial expression and hairstyle, as well as uniforms which indicate their job and rank. Among the figures there are ordinary soldiers, archers, and officers, together with horses. They were discovered arranged in military formation ready to protect the emperor in the afterlife.In 1987, the tomb and army of Emperor Qin were declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO. __________70__________ The Terracotta Army clearly deserves this honour, as nearly two million people from all over the world visit it each year.IV.

Since people told stories instead of writing them, the stories changed in between places and with each storyteller. Each new storyteller made changes to the stories based on his own traditions and culture. For example, many cultures have stories like the raven tale about how people got light. In these tales, though, the main character is another type of animal.Next the characters in folktales are similar They are usually ordinary characters who do extraordinary things. They usually have only one or two strong characteristics. For instance, thechief in the Raven story is selfish and not very smart. But Raven is very generous—he wants to help people. And he's very clever as he finds a way to get the light . In addition, often the characters in folktales are not people but animals with human qualities. They talk, make plans, and have strong emotions. Small animals such as the popular spider and turtle play this role in West African stories. In summary, the characters of folktales are simple but often clever in achieving their goals. Finally, the plot, or what happens in the folktale, is usually exciting. Most folktales begin with an expression like “a long time ago" and then move very quickly into the story, which starts with a problem. For instance, a strong, bad character often gives a weaker character a task and promises something if he completes the task. The weaker character often uses clever tricks, special skills, or magic to complete the task. In the end of a folktale, the good characters usually win and the bad characters lose. In conclusion, the plot of a folktale is interesting.So, in summary, we know that the tradition of folktales is very old. They are told all over the world, but they share several of the same features, as said above.V.

第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AIt’s rare that you see the words “shyness” and “letter” in the same sentence.After all,the common viewpoint is that those outgoing and sociable guys make great public speakers and excellent networkers and that those shy people are not.A survey conducted by USA Today referred to 65 percent of executives who believed shyness to be a barrier to leadership.Interestingly,the same article stresses that roughly 40 percent of leaders actually are quite shy—they're just better at adapting themselves to situational demands.Bill Gates,Warren Buffet and Charles Schwab are just a few "innies".Unlike their outgoing counterparts who are more sensitive to rewards and risk-taking,shy people take a cautious approach to chance.Rather than the flashy chit-chat that defines social gathering,shy people listen attentively to what others say and absorb it before they speak.They're not thinking about what to say while the other person is still talking,but rather listening so they can learn what to say.Along the same lines,shy people share a common love of learning.They are intrinsically(内在地)motivated and therefore seek content regardless of achieving an outside standard.Being shy can also bring other benefits.Remember being in school and hearing the same kids contribute,until shy little Johnny,who almost never said a word,cut in?Then what happened? Everyone turned around to look with great respect at little Johnny actually talking.This is how shy people made good use of their power of presence: they "own" the moment by speaking calmly and purposefully,which translate to a positive image.Shyness is often related to modesty.Not to say that limelight-seekers aren't modest,but shy people tend to have an accurate sense of their abilities and achievements.As a result,they are able to acknowledge mistakes,imperfections, knowledge gaps and limitations.Since shy people have a lower sensitivity to outside rewards than outgoing ones,they're more comfortable working with little information and sticking to their inner desires.Shy people are alsomore likely to insist on finding solutions that aren't primarily apparent.Don't believe me?Maybesuccessful person.The myth that shy people are less effective leaders than their outgoing fellows is just a misunderstanding.Make wise use of your personality strengths to lead your business no matter what side of the range you fall on.1.We can learn from Paragraph 2 that_______.A.shy people are sensitive to rewardsB.shy people care more about contentC.outgoing people are more careful about chancesD.outgoing people consider what to learn while listening2.The example of Johnny shows______.A.shy people are likely to be modestB.hardworking students speak little in publicC.some students keep silent on purpose at schoolD.shy people may have an advantage in discussion3.We can learn from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 that______.A.shyness results in successB.shyness contributes to popularityC.outside reward leads to insistenceD.uncertainty counts more than certainty4.The author supports his ideas mainly by______.A.giving definitions and presenting research resultsB.explaining problems and providing solutionsC.quoting authorities and making evaluationsD.making contrasts and gibing examplesB“Can’t hold a candle to”is a popular expression.When there wasn’t electricity,someone would have a servant light his way by holding a candle.The expression meant that the person who cannot hold a candle to you is not fit even to be your servant.Now,it means such a person cannot compare or compete.Another expression is “hold your tongue.”It means to be still and not talk.“H old your tongue”is not something you would tell a friend.But a parent or teacher might use the expression to quiet a noisy child.“Hold out”is an expression one hears often in sports reports and labor news.It means to refuse to play or work. Professional football and baseball players “hold out” if their team refuses to pay them what they think they are worth.The expression “hold up” has several different meanings.One is a robbery.A man with a gun may say,“This is a hold up.Give me your money.”Another meaning is to delay.A driver who was held up by heavy traffic might be late for work.Another meaning is for a story to be considered true after an investigation.A story can hold up if it is proved true.“Hold on”is another expression,which means wait or stop.As you leave for school,your brother may say,“Hold on,you forgot your book.” It is used to ask a telephone caller to wait and not hang up his telephone.Our final expression is “hold the line.”That means to keep a problem or situation from getting worse—to hold steady.For example,the president may say he will “hold the line on taxes.”He means there will be no increase in taxes.5.The expression “can’t hold a candle to” can be used when _______.A.some footballers refuse to play a gameB.someone else is wanted on the phoneC.someone is not qualified for a positionD.someone was delayed by heavy traffic6.The tune of the phrase “hold your tongue” is probably a little_______.A.amusingB.politeC.unfriendlyD.offensive7.If some teachers “hold out”,they probably______.A.change their attitudeB.refuse to workC.make a compromiseD.show their devotion8.Which of the following sentences can convey positive meanings?A.I was late as I was held up by a hold up.B.Hold on!You have to pay the bill,sir.C.You can’t even hold a candle to Michael.D.I promise to hold the line on house prices.CHow can we reduce the risk?There are four general approaches to dealing with volcanic(火山似的)dangers.We can try to keep the danger from occurring—often an impossible task.We can try to change its path or reduce its impact on existing development. We can take steps to protect future development.We can also do our best to have disaster response plans in place before they are needed.Removing the ThreatClearly,there is no way to stop an eruption.We can,however,attempt to reduce the eruption’s effects by strengthening structures,for example,building protective works such as walls to make lava(熔岩)flow away from developed areas.Such efforts can be and have been successful,but are of limited use in a large-scale(范围)eruption.Planning for the FutureProtecting future development from volcanic dangers is a simple task.Before building houses,we should judge the risk.If the risk seems too great,a safer location should be found.This type of planning is very effective,but all too often,people are drawn to the lush(葱郁的),rolling land of a quiet volcano.Disaster Preparedness(预案)When a volcano comes to life,a few weeks may not be enough to avoid a tragedy.Planning is the key to saving lives.Well before the warning signs occur,people must be educated about volcanic dangers.Escape plans must be in munication between scientists,officials,the media,and the general public should be practiced.Emergency measures must be thought out and agreed upon.If you doubt the importance of these efforts,take another look at past volcanic tragedies,such as the eruption of Nevado del munication failures left the town of Armero unprepared for escape.When a deadly mudflow came down the slope(斜坡),21,000 people—90 percent of the town’s people—died.9.The passage is intended for_______.A.the general publicB.architectsC.adventurersD.geographers10.When building houses,people tend to______.A.judge volcanic dangers carefullyB.take volcanic dangers seriouslyC.live near a quiet volcanoD.find a safer place far away from a volcano11.The writer mentioned Nevado del Ruiz to prove______.A.the failure to keep volcanic dangers from happeningB.the importance of preparing for a volcanic eruptionC.the bravery of the people in Armero TownD.the uncertainty of volcano’s damageDI was born and raised in Minnesota,the USA,but us an adult I have mostly lived in Europe and Africa.I teach cross-cultural management at the International Business School near Paris.For the last 15 years,I’ve studied how people in different parts of the world build trust,communicate,and make decisions especially in the workplace.While traveling in Tokyo recently with Japanese colleague,I gave a short talk to a group of 20 managers.At the end,I asked whether there were any questions or comments.No hands went up,so I went to sit down.My colleague whispered to me,“I think there actually were some comments,Erin.Do you mind if I try?”I agreed,but I guessed it a waste of breath.He asked the group again,“Any comments or questions?”Still,no one raised a hand,but this time he looked very carefully at each person in the silent audience.Gesturing to one of them,he said,“Do you have something to add?”To my amazement,she responded “Yes,thank you.” and asked me a very interesting question.My colleague repeated this several times,looking directly at the audience and asking for more questions or comments.After the session,I asked my colleague,“How do you know that those people had questions?”He hesitated,not sure how to explain it,and then said,“It has to do with how bright their eyes are.”He continued,“In Japan,we don’t make as much direct eye contact as you do in the West.So when you asked if there were any comments,most people were not looking directly at you.But a few people in the group were looking right at you,and their eyes were bright.That indicates that they would be happy to have you call on them.”I thought to myself I would never have learned from my upbringing in Minnesota.Since then,I try to focus on understanding behavior in other cultures I encounter,and keep finding the bright eyes in the room.12.What can we conclude from the first paragraph?A.Life in Minnesota has made the author worn out.B.The author enjoys traveling around the world.C.Different cultures are kind of familiar to the author.D.The author may start his own business in the future.13.Hearing the colleague whispering,the author______.A.went back to his seat and got seatedB.knew his colleague had some questionsC.owed a big debt of gratitude to his colleagueD.thought his colleague would get nowhere14.Where does the author’s colleague probably come from?A.Japan.B.America.C.Africa.D.France15.Which is the proper title for the passage?A.Focusing on Behavior in Cultures.B.Looking at Another Culture in the Eye.C.Sharing Different Cultures in Tokyo.D.Admiring the Beauty in the Eye.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。

The fruits that made it to the UK were green on the outside and, more often than not, hard with an unpleasant taste within. Then in 1966, the Del Monte Gold pineapple produced in Hawaii first hit our shelves.The new type of pineapple looked more yellowy-gold than green. It was slightly softer on the outside and had a lot of juice inside. But the most important thing about this new type of pineapple was that it was twice as sweet as the hit-and-miss pineapples we had known. In no time, the Del Monte Gold took the market by storm, rapidly becoming the world’s best-selling pineapple variety, and delivering natural levels of sweetness in the mouth, up until then only found in tinned pineapple.In nutrition it was all good news too. This nice tasting pineapple contained four times more vitamin C than the old green variety. Nutritionists said that it was not only full of vitamins, but also good against some diseases. People were understandably eager to be able to buy this wonderful fruit. The new type of pineapple was selling fast, and the Del Monte Gold pineapple rapidly became a fixture in the shopping basket of the healthy eater.Seeing the growing market for its winning pineapple, Del Monte tried to keep market to itself. But other fruit companies argued successfully that Del Monte turned to law for help, but failed. Those companies argued successfully that Del Monte’s attempts to keep the golden pineapple for itself were just a way to knock them out the market.24. We learn from the text that the new type at pineapple is __________.A. green outside and sweet insideB. good-looking outside and soft insideC. yellowy-gold outside and hard insideD. a little soft outside and sweet inside25. Why was the new type of pineapple selling well?A. It was rich in nutrition and tasted nice.B. It was less sweet and good for health.C. It was developed by Del Monte.D. It was used as medicine.26. The underlined word “fixture” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to something _________.A. that people enjoy eatingB. that is always presentC. that is difficult to getD. that people use as a gift27. We learn from the last paragraph that Del Monte _________.A. slowed other companies to develop pineapplesB. succeeded in keeping the pineapple for itselfC. tried hard to control the pineapple marketD. planned to help the other companiesCEssentially, everyone has two ages: a chronological(按时间计算的)age, how old the calendar says you are, and a biological age, basically the age at which your body functions as it compares to average fitness or health levels.“Chronological age isn’t how old we really are. It’s merely a number,” said Professor David Sinclair at Harvard University. “It is biological age that determines our health and ultimately our lifespan. We all age biologically at different rates according to our genes, what we eat, how much we exercise, and what environment we live in. Biological age is the number of candles we really should be blowing out. In the future, with advances in our ability to control biological age, we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one.To calculate biological age, Professor Levine at Yale University identified ninebio-makers that seemed to be the most influential on lifespan by a simple blood test. The numbers of those markers, such as blood sugar and immune measures, can be put into thecomputer, and the algorithm(算式)does the rest.Perhaps what’s most important here is that these measures can be ch anged. Doctors can take this information and help patients make changes to lifestyle, and hopefully take steps to improve their biological conditions. “I think the most exciting thing about this research is that these things aren’t set in stone,” Levine said. “People can be given the information earlier and take steps to improve their health before it’s too late.”Levine even entered her own numbers into the algorithm. She was surprised by the results. “I always considered myself a very healthy person. I’m physically activ e;I eat what I consider a fairly healthy diet. But I did not find my results to be as good as I had hoped they would be. It was a wake-up call,” she said.Levine is working with a group to provide access to the algorithm online so that anyone can calculate their biological age, identify potential risks and take steps to improve their health in the long run. “No one wants to live an extremely longlife with a lot of chronic(慢性的)diseases,” Levine said. “By delaying the development of mental and physical functioning problems, people can still be engaged in society in their senior years. That is the ideal we should be pursuing.”28. Biological age depends on ______.A. whether we can adapt ourselves to the environmentB. when we start to take outdoor exerciseC. how well our body works compared with our peers’D. what the calendar says about our age29. By saying “we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one.” in Para. 2, the author means ______.A. we are chronologically older than last yearB. we might be less happy than the previous yearC. we don’t have to celebrate our birthday every yearD. we may be biologically younger than the year before30. What does the author want to tell us by Levine’s example in Pa ra. 5?A. It is necessary to change our diet regularly.B. The test results may give us wrong information.C. Waking up early in the morning is good for our fitness.D. The algorithm can reveal our potential health problems.31. The ultimate g oal of Levine’s research is to ______.A. provide people with access to scientific theoryB. work out a solution to genetic problemsC. keep people socially active even in old ageD. free people from chronic diseasesDEnough “meaningless drivel”. That’s the message from a group of members of the UK government who have been examining how social media firms like LinkedIn gather and use social media data.The House of Commons Science and Technology Committee’s report, released last week, has blamed firms for making people sign up to long incomprehensible legal contracts and calls for an international standard or kitemark (认证标记) to identify sites that have clear terms and conditions. “The term and conditions statement that we all carelessly agree to i s meaningless drivel to anyone,” says Andrew Miller, the chair of the committee. Instead, he says, firms should provide a plain-English version of their terms. The simplified version would be checked by a third party and awarded a kitemark if it is an accurate reflection of the original.It is not yet clear who would administer the scheme, but the UK government is looking at introducing it on a voluntary basis. “we need to think through how we make that work in practice,” says Miller.Would we pay any more attention to a kitemark? “I think if you went and did the survey, people would like to think they would,” says Nigel Shadbolt at the University of Southampton, UK, who studies open data. “We do know people worry a lot about theinappropriate use of their i nformation.” But what would happen in practice is another matter, he says.Other organizations such as banks ask customers to sign long contracts they may not read or understand, but Miller believes social media requires special attention because it is so new. “We still don’t know how significant the long-term impact is going to be of unwise things that kids put on social media that come back and bite them in 20 years’ time,” he says.Shadbolt, who gave evidence to the committee, says the problem is that we don’t know how companies will use our data because their business models and uses of data are still evolving.Large collections of personal information have become valuable only rec ently, he says.The shock and anger when a social media firm does something with data that people don’t expect, even if users have apparently permission, show that the current situation isn’t working. If properly administered, a kitemark on terms and conditions could help people know what exactly they are signing up to. Although they would still have to actually read them.32. What does the phrase “meaningless drivel”in paragraphs 1 and2 refer to?A. Guidelines on how to use social media websites properly.B. Warnings from the UK government against unsafe websites.C. Legal contracts that social media firms make people sign up to.D. Insignificant data collected by social media firms.33.It can be inferred from the passage that Nigel Shadbolt doubts whethe r _______.A. social media firms would conduct a survey on the kitemark scheme .B. people would pay as much attention to a kitemark as they think.C. a kitemark scheme would be workable on a nationwide scale.D. the kitemark would help companies develop their business models.34. Andrew Miller thinks social media needs more attention than banksmainly because ______A. their users consist largely of kids under 20 years old.B. the language in their contracts is usually harder to understand.C. the information they collected could become more valuable in futu re.D. it remains unknown how users’data will be taken advantage of.35. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Say no to social media?B. New security rules in operation?C. Accept without reading?D. Administration matters!第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)36 You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how: Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular timefor studying. 37 A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you realize what is happening to your time.Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television. When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.Make good use of your time in class. 38 Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material.39 If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you’ll remember it longer.Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be over worried.40 You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.A. There are other methods that might help you with your studying.B. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.C. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says.D. No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard.E. Make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in class.F. Maybe you are an average student.G. This will help you understand the next class.第三部分语言知识运用第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)In the summer before I entered middle school, I read the book They Cage the Animalsat Night.

A[2019·武汉市质检]Sometimes we start a day with the previous day still in mind. We think about the mistakes we made in the previous day, how things went wrong, and how we felt bad about it. No wonder it becomes difficult to focus on the current day.Here are some steps on how to start your new day:1.Take time to evaluate your dayAt the end of a day, take some time to think about it. The purpose of this thinking time is not to regret how bad your day was, how things went wrong, or how people treated you badly. This won't do you any good. Instead, the purpose of this thinking time is to extract (获得) lessons which you can bring to the following day.2.Make a commitment to apply the lessonsAfter you extract the lessons, you should make a commitment to apply them. To do so, find some actionable things you can do to apply the lessons. Next, remind yourself to do them. You may write them down if you want to.3.“Close” your dayAfter you have spent the time thinking about the day and extracting the lessons, make a decision to “close” the day. You are done with it; don't think about it anymore.4.Bring only the lessons to the next day and nothing elseAfter you “close” a day, you should not bring anything out of it to the next day except for the lessons you extract. Focus on applying the lessons to the present. This way you will be able to start your day without the burden of yesterday.【文章大意】本文是一篇应用文,主要介绍了如何开始你新的一天。
高三英语周测卷(阅读1)
高三英语周测(阅读1)命题人:王东福AAs a boy growing up in India,I had longed to travel abroad. I used to listen to the stories my father would tell me about his stay in Canada and tours to Europe in the 1970s,with great interest.My big moment finally came in the summer of 1998 when I was able to accompany my parents to Europe,where my father was to attend a meeting. We planned to travel to Belgium,Netherlands and West Germany.I have vivid memories even today of going to Mumbai airport at night all excited about finally going abroad. I had heard several great things about Lufthansa till then but now I finally got to experience them first hand,during the flight to Frankfurt. We flew business class and even today I can remember the excellent service by the Lufthansa crew. The flight was really smooth and thoroughly enjoyable,even for someone like me,who is otherwise scared of flying.After spending almost two weeks in Europe,we took the Lufthansa airport express from Dusseldorf to Frankfurt airport,for our return flight. What a journey that was! All along the Rhine (莱茵河),it was simply an unforgettable experience. I was in a sombre mood on the flight back to Mumbai as it marked the end of a wonderful vacation,but the Lufthansa crew members were able to change it into a most enjoyable experience yet again,with the quality of their service.Being the first airline to take me overseas,Lufthansa will always hold a special place in my heart. Even today,I continue to enjoy flights on Lufthansa and simply cannot dream of choosing any other airline. Flying,in general,for me,has always been an ordeal (terrible and painful experience).Flying on Lufthansa,however,is something I always have and always will look forward to.1.Which country does the author live in now?A.India. B.Canada. C.Belgium. D.Germany.2.What made the author so interested in traveling abroad?A.Growing up in India. B.Once staying in Canada.C.Once traveling to Canada with his father.D.His father's stories about his traveling experiences.3.Which of the following is TRUE about the author's trip to Europe in 1998? A.The author traveled with one of his parents.B.Both their going and return are by air.C.They traveled in spring that year.D.They stayed in Europe for nearly two months.4.It can be inferred from the passage that Lufthansa is ________.A.a city in India B.a city in EuropeC.an airline company D.a travel agency5.The underlined word “sombre” in the 4th paragraph probably means “________”.A.happy B.sad C.angry D.enjoyableBAlthough the United States covers so much land and the land produces far more food than the present population needs,its people are by now almost entirely an urban society . Less than a tenth of the people are engaged in agriculture and forestry(林业),and most of the rest live in or around towns,small and large.Here the traditional picture is changing:every small town may still be very like other small towns,and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country,but most Americans do not live in small towns any more.Half the population now lives in some thirty metropolitan areas(1arge cities with their suburbs、of more than a million people each—a larger proportion than in Germany or England,let alone France).The statistics(统计)of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live in areas classified as rural travel by car to work in a nearby town each day.As the rush to live out of town continues, rural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled with houses,so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb. But more and more the typical American lives in a metropolitan rather than a small town environment.6.If now America has 250 million people.how many of them are engaged in agriculture and forestry?A.About 25 million.B.More than 25 million.C.Less than 25 million. D. Less than 225 million7.Which of the following four countries has the smallest proportion of people living in metropolitan areas?A.United States B.Germany C.France.D.England.8.What’s the meaning of the word “metropolitan” in the middle of the passage?A . Of a large city with its suburbs.B.Of small and large towns.C.Of urban areas.D.Of rural areas.9. According to the passage,what can we learn about small towns in theUnited States?A.Most small towns become gradually crowdedB.Small towns are still similar to each other.C.As the traditional picture is changing,towns are different.D .Small towns are turning into large cities10.Why is it hard to say when a piece of country becomes a suburb?A .Because they are the same.B.Because the rush takes place too quicklyC.Because the process is gradual.D.Because more and more Americans live in metropolitan areas.CIf we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago,we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day,we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history .Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them .Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country,but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war.Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write.For example,we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them.But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write.Sometimes, of course,even if the people cannot write,they may know something of the past.They have heard about it from older people,and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings,and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations, for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past.This we may call “remembered history”.Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is,because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing.But where there are no written records,such spoken stories are often very helpful.11. Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage?A.“Remembered history”,compared with written history,is less reliableB.Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history.C.A written account of our daily activities helps US to be able to answer many questions.D.Where there are no written records.there is no history.12.We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because ___ A.there was nothing worth being written down at that timeB .the people there ignored the importance of keeping a recordC.the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fireD.the people there did not know how to write13.“Remembered history” refers to ___.A.history based on a person’s imaginationB .stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouthC .songs and dances about the most important eventsD .both B and C14.“Remembered history” is regarded as valuable only when ____.A. it is written down B .no written account is availableC.it proves to be time D.people are interested in it15 .The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now if the ancient people had _____A.kept a written record of every past eventB. not burnt their written records in warsC.told exact stories of the most important happeningsD.made more songs and dancesDWhen Mrs.Joseph Groeger died recently in Vienna,Austria,people asked the obvious question, “Why did she live to be 107?” .Answers were provided by a survey conducted among 148 Viennese men and women who had reached the age of 100.Somewhat surprising was the fact that the majority had lived most of their lives in cities.In spite of the city’s image as an unhealthy place,city living often provides benefits that country living can lack.One factor seems to be important to the longevity(长寿)of those interviewed.This factor is exercise.In the cities it is often faster to walk short distances than to wait for a bus.Even taking public transportation often requires some walking.Smaller apartment houses have no elevators(电梯),and so people must climb stairs.City people can usually walk to local supermarkets. Since parking spaces are hard to find,there is often no alternative to walking.On the other hand,those who live in the country and suburbs do not have to walk every day.In fact,the opposite is often true.To go to school,work,or almost anywhere else,they must ride in cars.16.The Vienna survey may help to explain _____A.the complaints of people in apartment housesB.the cause of Mrs Groeger’s deathC.the longevity of people like Mrs.GroegerD. the image of cities in general17.The purpose of the second paragraph is to list some _____ A.benefits of walking B.occasions for walking in city lifeC. comments made by city people D.problems of city living 18.To reach the third floor of a building, it would probably be most healthful __A. to take the elevator B.to walk up the stairsC.to ride in a car D.to find an alternative to walking 19.People who live in the country probably do more driving than walking because __ .A.they don’t live near business areasB. they don’t need the exerciseC.they never have parking problemsD.they can’t afford to take the bus20. A conclusion that can be drawn from this passage is that__________ . A.air pollution is not serious B.anyone can live to be 107 C.country people should move to the cityD.walking is a healthful exercise高三阅读理解专练答案第一组56-60 ADBCB 61-65 CCABC 66-70 DDDBA 71-75 CBBAD。

高三英语晚练2017-5-28一阅读理解You probably know you should say “please” and “thank you” at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should respect and be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners?Keep It Down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Usually, when you play the music loud on an MP3 player, other people can’t hear the words of the song. They just hear a loud sound. No one wants to listen to this. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears. So even if you are alone when listening to our MP3 players, you shouldn’t turn it up too high.Take Them Off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 off and put it away. Libraries, and schools don’t allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums, that don’t have rules, but it would be rude to have your MP3 player on. Sometimes, it doesn’t make sense to listen on your MP3 player at event. Why would you listen to music at a play, a movie or a sporting event? You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came.Take One Out! Once in a while it’s okay just to take out one earphone and not other. Imagine you are listening on your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would not be rude to take out one earphone, tell him the way, and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast-food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it’s not for you.It’s Your Choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. F or example, some people can listen to music on their MP3 players when reading books, while others think it is disturbing. In cases like this, you need to do what seems right for you.1.The underlined word “volume” in Paragraph Two probably means “_________.”A. the type of musicB. the amount of a soundC. the length of a songD. the colour of an MP3 player2.No one wants to listen to_________from others’ MP3 players.A. a loud soundB. sad storiesC. a long movieD. the words of a song3. We should turn down the mu sic when we are alone because loud music_________.A. is not enjoyableB. makes us tiredC. is bad for MP3 playersD. hurts our ears4.If we listen to our MP3 player a t a play, _________.A. the theatre won’t allow itB. the actors will get angryC. others won’t hear the p lay wellD. we will miss part of the play5.We can take one earphone out when we _________.A. show others the wayB. talk to friends on the phoneC. watch a sporting eventD. have dinner with our parents二完形填空(共20小题;每题1. 5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
