Boring二、阅读理解（共20题，满分40分）第一节(共30分)AWhat is language for? Some people seem to think it's for practicing grammar rules and earning lists of words—the longer the list, the better. That's wrong．Language is for t he exchange（交流）of ideas and information．It's meaningless knowing all about a language if you can't use it freely. Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they can't speak correc tly or fluently（流利地）．They are afraid of making mistakes．One shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. Native speakers make mistakes and break rules, too．Bernar d saw once wrote, "Foreigners often speak English too correct ly．"But the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that Chinese students make. They're English mista kes in the English language．And if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. What used to be wrong bec omes right．People not only make history, they make langua ge．But a people can only make its own language．It can't m ake another people's language. So Chinese students of Engli sh should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldn't overdo （做过头）it. They should put communication first. 21．Language is used to ________.A. express oneselfB. practise grammar rulesC. talk with foreigners onlyD. learn lists of words22．Generally, when an American or an Englishman speaks English, he ________.A. never makes mistakesB. often makes mistakesC. can't avoid making mistakesD. always makes mist akes23．"Foreigners often speak English too correctly．"This sent ence means that ________.A. foreigners speak correct EnglishB. foreigners speak incorrect EnglishC. foreigners speak English according to the grammar rulesD. foreigners never make mistakes when they speak English 24．When we speak a foreign language, we should ________.A. speak in Chinese wayB. speak by the rulesC. speak to native speakersD. not be afraid of mak ing mistakesBField Trip DayOn Friday, May 16, our class will take a field trip to North Park Zoo. The zoo has lions, elephants, and other interesting anim als. Many of the animals we have been studying will be there f or us to closely examine.Our class will be divided into six teams. Each team will have fi ve students and one leader. The leaders are listed in the table .What You Need to KnowThe cost is $1.00 for students to enter the zoo. We will leave t he school at 9:00 a.m. and return at 2:30 p.m. On the morning of the trip, the students will be divided into teams. One stude nt from each team will receive a camera. The cameraman will take pictures of the team, the animals, and other fun sights at the zoo. All members should wear blue shirts. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes because we will be walking all day. Pleas e bring a bag lunch and a drink. We will have a picnic at the p ark inside the zoo. Bring a healthy snack, such as a piece of fruit and a drink, for later in the day. When we are at the zoo, al ways remain with your team. Do not leave the team without a sking permission from the team leader.Feeding the AnimalsThe ONLY animals that students are allowed to feed are thos e in the children’s Zoo. Special food can be bought at the zoo for 25 cents and given to these animals. Do not feed your lunc h to them.

A photo competition guid eCA new word has suddenly become wildly popular in China —"tuhao" — which loosely translated means "nouveau riche". T here have been more than 100 million references to the word "tuhao" on social media since early September.It's being used to describe everything from the new People's Daily building, to expensive celebrity weddings full of bling, an d the new gold-coloured iPhone.In Chinese "tu" means earth and "hao" means rich. To say so meone is tuhao is to imply they come from a poor peasant ba ckground, and have made it rich quick — but don't quite have the manners, or sophistication to go along with it. It's like the t erm "nouveau riche", says Professor Steve Tsang at the Scho ol of Contemporary Chinese Studies in Nottingham - but has even more negative meanings, suggesting a certain vulgarity(粗俗)."Tuhao" is actually an old word, dating back perhaps as far as the Southern Dynasty 1,500 years ago, but it has always me ant something rather different. During the communist revolutio n, from the 1920s to early 1950s, it was widely used to refer t o landholders and gentry who would bully those beneath them .This new usage of the term took off in September after a wide ly-shared joke about a rich, but unhappy man, who goes to a Buddhist monk for advice, expecting to be told to live a more sim ple life. The monk replies instead with the phrase: "Tuhao, let' s be friends!"Chinese Internet users are highly creative in their use of langu age, and are constantly inventing, and re-inventing words as a way of getting past censorship(审查) rules. But in this case, its popularity seems to be down to t he fact that it expresses China's changing society so well —many people sneer at those with wealth, but are secretly jealo us.28.What is the best title of the passage?A. Tuhao, a new popular word in ChinaB. The long history of TuhaoC. The new usage of TuhaoD. Tuhao, a newl y-invented Chinese word29.Which of the following may NOT be considered “tuhao”?A. A vulgar nouveau richeB. A bully landhold erC. A quick-rich peasant without proper manners D. A Buddhist mon k.30.The last but one paragraph mainly tells us ______.A. what the new usage of the word isB. how the word becomes popular againC. why the unhappy man went to the Buddhist monkD. what advice the monk gave the unhappy man31.What does the underlined word in the last paragraph mean ?A. respectB. envyC. laughD. disbelieveDThere was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages.On the last day of one voyage, the ship was in a small port. It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain sai d to his sailors, “If one of you stays in the water during the wh ole night, I will give him my ship.

But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it. He got into the water, and, though it was very cold, he stayed in it. When i t was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore a bout half a mile away.“You are cheating,” the captain said to the sailor. “The fire’s warming you.”“But it’s half a mile away! ”said the sailor.“A fire’s fire,” answered the captain. “I have won.”The sailor came out of the water, and said, “Perhaps you thin k that you are clever because you have won my wages, but y ou can’t cook a chicken.”“I can, ”answered the captain.“If you cook this chicken,” said the sailor, “I shall work for you without wages for seven years, but if you can’t, you will give me your ship.”The captain agreed, took the chicken and said, “Where’s the fire?”“There it is,” answered the sailor. “On the shore.”“But it’s half a mile away,” said the captain angrily.“‘A fire’s fire’ you said,” answered the sailor. “If it is enough to warm me in the water, it is enough to cook your chicken.”32．The captain got the sailors’ wages ________.A. to buy a chicken for himselfB. and kept the money for f uture useC. by cheating himD. and said he would return the money soon33．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.

AThe Doctor’s CallThere was ice on the road, and the doct or’s car hit a tree and turned over three times. To his surprise, he was not hurt. He got out of the car and walked to the nearest house. He wanted to telephone the garage (汽车修理站) for help. The door was opened by one of his patients.“Oh, Doctor.” she said, “I have only just telephoned you. You must have a very fast car. You have got here very quickly indeed. There has been a very bad accident in the road outside. I saw it through the window. I am sure the driver will need your help.”1.

Why did the woman patient telephone the doctor?A. She needed medical treatment.B. She believed somebody else needed a doctor.C. To ask how quickly the doctor could come.D.

She felt glad that the doctor was not hurt in the accident.D. She was alarmed (惊慌) at seeing the doctor in a bad state after the accidentBAn old friend from California called from the airport to tell me that he had arrived. I was not able to leave the office, but I had made plans for his arrival. After explaining where my new house was, I told him that I had left the key under the doormat (门垫). Since I knew it would be pretty late before I could get home, I suggested that he make himself at home and help himself to anything that was in the refrigerator(电冰箱).Two hours later, my friend phoned me from the house. At the moment, he said, he was listening to some of my records after having had a delicious meal. Now, he said, he was drinking a glass of orange juice. When I asked him if he had had any difficulty finding the house, he answered that the only problem was that he had not been able to find the key under the doormat, but luckily, the living room window by the apple tree had been left open and he had climbed in through the window. I listened to all this in great surprise. There is no apple tree outside my window, but there is one by the living room window of my next door neighbor's house!4. An old friend of mine called ______.A. to tell me to meet him at the airportB. to tell me about his arrivalC. to ask me to leave the officeD. to ask me to make plans for his arrival5. My friend climbed into the room because ______ .A. there was an apple tree outsideB. the living room window was left openC. he had difficulty opening the doorD. he hadn't found the key6. My friend telephoned me two hours later ______ .A. from my homeB. at the airportC. in his officeD. from my neighbor's house7. Why was the author surprised when he listened to all this ?A. There is no apple tree outside his window.B. His friend ate too much.C. His friend is so brave.D. His neighbor helped his friend.CIn choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities (品质) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability .Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person's place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for mistakes in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend!8. Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a friend?A. understandingB. honestyC. reliabilityD. a sense of humor9. If you have “fair weather friends,”(Para.1) ______.A. they will give you all that they have when you need helpB. you will be refused when you get into troubleC. you will become richD. you can be sure that you get real friends10. This passage mainly discuss ______ .A. the qualities of a friendB. where to choose friendsC. how to get along with friendsD. the importance of having a friendDIf you ask some people, “How did you learn English so well?” you may get a surprising answer: “In my sleep!”These are people who have taken part in one of the recent experiments to test the learn-while-you-sleep method, which is now being tried in several countries, and with several subjects. English is among them.Scientists say that this sleep-study method greatly speeds language learning. They say that the ordinary person can learn two or three times as much during sleep as in the same period during the day — and this does not affect his rest in any way. However, sleep teaching will only put into your head what you have studied already while you are awake.In one experiment, ten lessons were broadcast over the radio for two weeks. Each lesson lasted twelve hours — from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. The first three hours of English grammar and vocabulary were given with the students awake. At 11 p.m. a lullaby (催眠曲) was broadcast to send the student to sleep and for the next three hours the radio in a soft and low voice broadcast the lesson again into his sleeping ears. At 2 a.m. a sharp noise was sent over the radio to wake the sleeping student up for a few minutes to go over the lesson. The soft music sent him back to rest again while the radio went on. At 5o’clock his sleep ended and he had to go through the lesson again for three hours before breakfast.11. With the learn-while-you-sleep method, one____ .A. starts to learn a new lesson in sleepB. learns how to sleep betterC. is made to remember his lesson in sleepD. can listen to the radio broadcast while lying in bed12. In the experiment, lessons were given____ .A. in the night timeB. after lullabies were broadcastC. while the student was awakeD. all through the twelve hours without stop13. At the end of the lesson, the student has to____ .A. get up and take breakfastB. be woken up by a loud voiceC. listen to the lesson again in sleepD. review the lesson for three hours14. The sleep-study method is being tried in many countries to teach____ .A. the English languageB. grammar and vocabularyC. a number of subjectsD. foreign languages15. What is t he meaning of “put into your head” in paragraph 3?A. 把头脑放进去B. 使你记住C. 洗脑D. 休息头脑第二节(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15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。

She lost most of her ability to hear when she was 18. As a child and during her teenage years, Harvey was a singer. But she stopped singing for a time after she went deaf.But she decided to start singing again after she learned how to feel a song’s beat through the wooden floor of a stage or theater. She uses visual aids to make sure her musical instruments are tuned correctly and she is singing in the correct pitch (音高).Harvey is now a professional singer. But until Tuesday night, not many people in the United States had heard of her. Of course that changed when she appeared on the television show “America’s Got Talent.” The show has four judges who watch people perform and decide if they should continue in the competition.Mandy Harvey appeared on stage with a small instrument: a ukulele. A sign language interpreter stood next to the judges. One of the judges, Simon Cowell, asked Harvey about the condition that caused her to go deaf. Then she got ready to perform. She sang a piece she wrote,called “Try.” Harvey said: “After I lost my hearing, I gave up. But I want to do more with my life than just give up.” Cowell said: “Good for you,” and clapped his hands loudly.As she was singing，one camera cut away to capture images of people in the theater. Many were seen crying. At one point, everyone stood up and cheered. By Wednesday afternoon, a video of Harvey’s performance had been played 46 million times.Shortly after she finished singing, Cowell smiled, and said “Mandy, I don’t think you’re going to ne ed a translator for this.” And he reached over and hit a button that released golden confetti (五彩纸屑) into the air. That meant Harvey automatically moved on to the final part of the talent competition.4．How does Mandy Harvey sing with her musical instruments as a deaf person?A．By senses of touch. B．By her instrument.C．By experience. D．By sight.5．What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．Harvey is not well-known.B．Harvey is a professional singer.C．Harvey is popular with Americans.D．Harvey is lucky with her childhood.6．What do you know about topic of her song “Try”？A．Showing her hard situation.B．Expressing her perseverance.C．Asking for sympathy from others.D．Proving her success in her career.7．What was the result of Mandy’s performance?A．She got the first place.B．She moved the three judges.C．She succeeded in entering the finals.D．She didn’t satisfy the whole audience.If you look on the Internet, you will see that almost every day of the year celebrates some kind of food. These “holidays” have become very popular across the United States. They give people a chance to enjoy something they might not eat normally, like National Onion (洋葱) Ring Day, for example. Food holidays also give restaurants and other businesses a chanceto promote their products.But where did these American “holidays” come from? Many are the invention of an Alabama man, John-Bryan Hopkins. He writes about food for his Foodimentary. com website. Hopkins told Time magazine that when he began his site in 2006, there were only 175 “holidays.” “I filled in the rest,” he said.The National Day Calendar has a list of all the different food and non-food related “holidays.” In the past, the website used to let anyone create their own day—for a price. But now, the site only accepts requests from businesses and other organizations.While some food “holidays” are indeed made-up, many have historical roots. For example, National Beer Day on April 7 marks the end of a U. S. ban on the production, transport, import and sale of alcoholic drinks. The ban lasted from 1920 until 1933.The Salvation Army, a Christian group, launched U. S. National Doughnut Day on June 1, 1938. It was meant to honor women who served soldiers doughnuts during World War I.But not everyone likes food holidays. Bethany Jean Clement is a food writer for the Seattle Times newspaper. She wrote, “I get that some people might be excited by, say, National Doughnut Day. But you really can have a doughnut any day you want!”Tavi Juarez, also of Foodimentary. com, thinks national food holidays are here to stay. She told the Seattle Times, “In my modest opinion, I believe that food holidays will continue to grow in popularity online because there’s a lot of negativity (消极) out there. Why not choose to celebrate food instead?”8．Why does the website accept others’ own day?A．To promote traditional food. B．To make money.C．To create new holidays. D．To attract more viewers.9．What is National Beer Day related to?A．Law. B．War.C．Right. D．Custom.10．Who dislikes food holidays?A．John-Bryan Hopkins. B．The Salvation Army.C．Bethany Jean Clement. D．Tavi Juarez.11．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．Good Chances to Enjoy Particular Foods.B．Traditional American Foods on the Internet.C．Tricks of Businesses: Promotion of Products.D．National Food Days: An American Tradition.American Rosalie Stoke is one of the millions of college students with a bright future ahead of her. She was born in Baltimore, Maryland. She studies chemical engineering at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, also known as Virginia Tech. But the 22 year-old’s path to college was very different from the majority of Americans like her.In the United States，it is common for young people to complete four years of high school at age 17 or 18. After they finish high school in the spring, those who decide to attend college usually do so two-to three-months later. However, Stoke learned about a different way of doing things from an older student. That student said that before going to college, she worked for a year helping with childcare for a family in Germany. This idea appealed to Stoke very much.Stoke is in her third year of studies at Virginia Tech. She took a gap year in 2013. “It ju st sounded like a really great idea to have a year off to figure out more of what I wanted to do in college and after,” she said. So, after finishing high school in 2013, Stoke decided she also wanted to take a gap year before starting college.In fall 2013, Stoke connected with a family in Barcelona, Spain. They agreed to let her live with them and paid her a small amount to help care for their children for seven months. Stoke studied Spanish during her free time in Barcelona.

cheerfully．"Soon well be observing and counting owls at the state park．"Yawning，Annie nodded and smiled．The time was 4：30a．m．Looking out into thedarkness，Annie remembered learning in school that most owls are active at night，when they hunt for food．During the day they sleep in hard﹣to﹣find spots．"Dad，why do you need to count owls？"she asked．"It's important for the scientists to have current information about bird populations，"he explained．"We want to know which birds have decreased in number and whether any new kinds of birds are coming into a certain area．You and I will write down the kinds of birds that we see today and keep a record of how many times we see each kind．Then we'll send out a report to a scientific organization that is collecting about birds from people all over the county．"Dad pulled into the parking lot of the state park．Then，with a flashlight in hand，they began their hike into the woods．Annie zipped（拉上拉链）up her coat and tried to keep from trembling．She had not expected the morning to be so frigid．Luckily her gloves were in her pocket．Suddenly Annie's father stopped and gestured for her to be still．Obeying，Annie did not take another step．She thought she heard a low crying up head．"That's certainly a screech owl，"her father whispered．"Let's get a look at it．"After looking more closely，Annie could see that it was a small owl．Sensing danger，the owl narrowed its eyes and pulled its feathers tightly against its body．Annie carefully wrote down in her notebook that they had seen a screech owl．Walking a little farther，they came to a tall oak tree．"This looks like a perfect spot to attract owls，"Dad said．"I'm going to play a recording of common call of the barred owl．Maybe we can get one to answer．'Annie could hardly believe her ear．The recorded all sounded as if the bird were asking，"who cooks for you？"Moments later Annie thought she heard a return call in distance．She held her breath and waited．Suddenly a huge bird landed very quietly on a branch above them．Annie had long forgotten how cold it was．She stood in wonder，shining her flashlight on the bird and studying it carefully．The barred owl was nearly two feet tall．Gray feathers were around its dark eyes．The bird did not matter．Annie would never forget the image of the powerful barred owl．25．Why did Annie and her father go to the state park？A．To take a hike in the woods．B．To record the call of barred owl．C．To collect information about birds．D．To protect the environment for wildlife．26．The underline word"frigid"in paragraph 3probably

take down note．28．How did Annie feel when she saw the barred owl？A．BoredB．RelaxedC．FrightenedD．Amazed．13．（8分）More than 20 Chinese and American experts discovered that young people of both countries are facing the same problems of economic and social pressures and lack of confidence．Wayne Meisel，director of the Campus Outreach Opportunity League of Minnesota University，said that under economic pressure American young people have to work hard and most students have to take part﹣time work in order to support themselves．In these circumstances，he said，young people lack confidence，which was not the case in the 1960s when young people thought themselves capable of doing anything．In spite of the different conditions in China，Li Xuequan，director of the higher education section of the All﹣China Youth Federation，said Chinese young people are also facing economic pressure and are worried about inflation（通货膨胀）and corruption（腐败）．In order to solve these problems，the Chinese and American experts agreed that youth organization should call on the whole of society to create favorable conditions for the healthy growth of young people，as well as to encourage them to meet the urgent needs of society．Meisel said that since last year he has sent letters of"challenge to youth"to many young people，urging them to commit themselves to meeting such needs as feeding the hungry，housing the homeless，caring for the lonely and sick，serving the elderly and preserving the environment．The letter says："Through the service，we touch the lives of others and enrich our own．"29．What is the main factor that leads to young people's lack of confidence in both countries？A．Their lazinessB．Their educationC．Part﹣time jobsD．Economic pressure30．What is the possible situation in the 1960s？A．Young people lacked confidence as well．B．Young people in America were able to do anything well．C．Young people were quite confident in America．D．Young Chinese people were very confident．31．The

othersC．challenges for the young peopleD．problems of the young people and ways to solve them．14．（6分）By May，after three months，I had lost 22pounds and reached my goal of 115pounds．My friends would say"Alice，you look great!"or"How did you lose so much weight？"．Those compliments（赞扬）made me feel good and confident．Soon I dropped to 110ponds．A few of my friends told me that I need to stop dieting because I was starting to look sick．They brought me a present﹣a bag of chocolates，which I later gave to my sister．My mum would come to my room，with tears in her eyes，and have long chats about how harmful this diet was and begged me to stop．My dad would leave worried messages on my cell phone at school，telling me that it would do serious harm to my body．By mid﹣June，when school was coming to an end，I was down to an only alive state of 95pounds．All of a sudden，I knew I had to do something．I guessed the number itself scared me．I recalled my doctor．He told me about a girl who was 95pounds and was at the risk of dying．I knew I was putting my life at risk，but for what？To make those who love me worried？Is it worthwhile to be thin？Now I realize that models in magazines，TV and movies are not realistic．The price to pay for the"perfect body"is living with the dangerous and sometimes deadly eating disorder．And there are more important things to think about than how thin you are．33．How did the author feel when she weighed 115 pounds？A．Happy．B．Disappointed．C．Worried．D．Painful．34．The author's mother went to her room to．A．bring her some chocolates．B．tell her she missed her．C．ask her to

AElizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission(录取)to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.In 1849, after graduation from medical school, she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for womenand children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital, she also set up the first medical school for women.1. Why couldn’t Elizabeth Blackwell realize her dream of becoming a surgeon?A. She couldn’t get admitted to medical school.B. She decided to further her education in Paris.C. A serious eye problem stopped her.D. It was difficult for her to start a practice in the United States.2. What main obstacle(障碍) almost destroyed Elizabeth’s chances for becoming fora doctor?A. She was a woman.B. She wrote too many letters.C. She couldn’t graduate from medical school.D. She couldn’t set up herhospital.3. How many years passed between her graduation from medical school and the openingofher hospital?A. Eight yearsB. Ten yearsC. Nineteen yearsD. Thirty-sixyears4. According to the passage, all of the following are “firsts” in the life ofElizabeth Blackwell, except that she ______.A. became the first woman physician.B. was the first woman doctorC. and several other women founded the first hospital for women and childrenD. set up the first medical school for womenBToday most Chinese teenagers are happy to be favored by two parents and four grandparents in their families. But have you ever thought about how to take care of four to twelve old people when you grow up and get married? This could be a problem for most Chinese youths as China is entering a new stage of an aging society.An aging society refers to one where 10 percent or more of its population is over 60. By the end of 2007, Chinese over 60 years old have made up 11.7 percentof the nation’s total population. “China is getting old before becoming rich,” said Cai Chuang, a professor at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. The population increase that has powered Chinese growth for three decades will give way over the next ten years to a rapid aging of the society. This will lead to weaker economic growth, because of a lack of labor resources.As a result of the family planning policy, it is expected that the country's total working population will decrease after 2015.China is not the only country getting old. More than 60 countries have become aging societies and one in three people in the European Union is a senior citizen.However, experts said that China doesn't have a highly developed social security network to support the old. Social security is an insurance program protecting those in need, including the old, the disabled and others.5. An aging society is a society that ___________.A. less than 10% of its population is over 60B. 10% or more of its population is over 60C. there are four old people in a familyD. most of its population is over606. If China enters an aging society, ___________.A. there will not be enough labor resourcesB. the family planning policy will be endedC. everyone needs to take care of four to twelve old peopleD. China will have a highly developed social security network7. The passage mainly talks about ___________.A. an aging societyB. Chinese social problemsC. family planning policyD. aging problem in ChinaCUsing too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger, but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways. You may wonder how paving(铺砌) a road can lead to less usable fresh water. A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwaterdoes not come from lakes or rivers. It comes from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(缺乏). Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall, but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs .Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference, too. In the United States, a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live, but there’s a lot we can do to lower the number.You can take steps to save water in your home. To start with, use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher only when it is full. Help your parents fix any leaks(滴水) in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.8. Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?A. Using river water.B. Throwing batteries away.C. Paving parking lots.D. Throwing rubbish into lakes.9. What can be inferred from the text?A. All water shortages are due to human behavior.B. It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.C. There is much we can do to reduce family size.D. The average family in America makes proper use of water.10. The last paragraph is intended to ________________.A. show us how to fix leaks at homeB. tell us how to run a dishwasherC. prove what drinking glass is best for usD. suggest what we do to save water at home11. The text is mainly about _________________.A. how human activity affects our water supplyB. how much we depend on water to liveC. why droughts occur more in dry climatesD. why paving roads reduces our waterDAlthough English is not as old as Chinese, it is spoken by many people around the world every day. English speakers are always creating new words, and we are often able to know where most words come from.Sometimes, however, no one may really know where a word comes from. Did you ever think about why hamburgers(汉堡包) are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham(火腿)? About a hundred years ago, some men went to America from Europe. They came from a big city in Germany called Hamburg. They did not speak good English, but they ate good food. When some Americans saw them eating round pieces of beef, they asked the Germans what it was. The Germans did not understand the question and answered, “We come from Hamburg.” One of theAmericans owned a restaurant, and had an idea. He cooked some round pieces of beef like those which the men from Hamburg ate. Then he put each between two pieces of bread and started selling them. Such bread came to be called “hamburgers”. Today “hamburgers” are sold in many countries around the world.Whether this story is true or not, it certainly is interesting. Knowing why any word has a certain meaning is interesting. too. This reason, for most English words, can be found in any large English dictionary.12. Hamburg is_____________.A. a kind of foodB. a round piece of beefC. the name of a villageD. a city in Germany13. According to the story, ________________.A. few Americans like hamburgersB. hamburgers are only made with beefC. hamburgers are made with hamD. hamburgers were first sold about a century ago14. According to the writer, which of the following can often be found in any largeEnglish dictionary?A. Where all the new words come fromB. Where those Germans came fromC. The reason why a word has a certain meaningD. The reason why English is spoken around the world15. According to the story, the word “hamburger” comes from_________________.A. China because it has a long historyB. England because Germans don’t speak good EnglishC. the round pieces of beef which those people from Hamburg were eatingD. English speakers because they always create new words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。
