He was the fifth child and only son of Herbert and Dora Sims. Herbert was a blacksmith(铁匠), and had a thriving trade making horseshoes. He was determined that his first-born son would follow him into the blacksmith. For this reason, Edward had to leave school at the age of 12,and worked with his father.However, Edward was not cut out to be a blacksmith. Although he has an athletic body, he didn't have strong arms like his father, and he felt dizzy in the heat of the smithy. When he tried to find alternative employment, he found it difficult because he had never learnt to read or write.One day, he went for an interview at a solictior’s office. The job was a runner, taking documents from the office to other offices in the city. The solicitor was pleased to see that Edward was physically fit, but when he discovered that the young man couldn't read or write, he decided against employing him. "How can you deliver documents to other offices," he asked, "if you can't read the addresses on them?" Bitterly disappointed, Edward left the building and went to wait for a tram to take him back to the suburb where his father’s smithy was. Next to the bus stop, a man was selling newspapers from a stand ."Excuse me, son?" he said. "Would you look after my stand for a moment?"For the next 20 minutes, Edward sold newspapers, lots of them. When the man came back, he was so delighted with his new assistant's honesty, that he offered him a job. Edward took it immediately.In the next few months, the two men progressed from working on newspaper stands to selling newspapers, tobacco,confectionery(糖果点心)and other goods in a shop. Then they opened a second shop, and a third. Eventually, they had a chain of 25 shops in three cities.Edward became very rich, so he employed a tutor to teach him to read and write. The tutor was amazed at what Edward had achieved. "Imagine what you could do if you’d been able to read and write when you were younger!" he said.“Yes!” said Edward. “I could have run myself to exhaustion delivering documents for a solicitor!”60.What would be the best title for the text?A.Success of illiterate newsboyB.Local blacksmith becomes famousC.The thriving trade of the blacksmithD.Reading and writing-the road to success61.What can you infer from the underlined expression “not cut out to be” in the second paragraph?A.Edward Sims did not like being a blacksmihtB.Edward Sims did not like working with his father.C.Edward Sims was not strong enough and it made him feel ill.D.Edward Sims was good at it but wanted to do another job.62.When Edward applied for the job as a runner for a solicitor, .A.the solicitor turned him down because he wasn’t intelligent enoughB.the solicitor offered him the job because he was so fitC.the solicitor gave him the job but told him he had to learn to readD.the sol icitor didn’t offer him the job because he couldn’t read63.Which of the following is NOT ture about Edward Sims?A.He was such a good salesman that he went on to own 25 newsagent shops with another man.B.The newspaperman liked him so much he gave him a job.C.He ran himself into exhaustion delivering papers.D.He learnt to read and write.CUganda is a country in East Africa and,as in many such countries,a high percentage of the population,about 80 percent,are village-dwellers living in huts,which are often no bigger than a garage. The walls of the huts are made of mud,which is held together by reeds and sticks,and the roofs of the older ones are thatched(覆盖)with grass,although an increasing number of newer village houses have roofs made from corrugated(波纹形的)iron.Several generations of the same family live together in the huts,which are usually divided into two sections by a curtain. The inner section,the one furthest from the open door of the hut,is where everyone sleeps and food is prepared and served in the outer part. If the family owns chickens or goats,they are kept in a small room attached to the main house.Food is usually prepared on open fires although some people prefer to cook inside. However,this is quite dangerous and also means that the walls of the hut are stained by smoke and the atmosphere is acrid. The family sit in a circle on mats while they eat.Newer village houses are almost always made of corrugated iron and are bigger,with one or two separate bedrooms and the kitchen in a smaller building besidethe main house. But,old or new,the houses are not powered by electricity,and all homes are lit by paraffin(石蜡)candles called “tadobba”.Nor is there any running water in the houses. Some villages have their own well,but in many cases,collecting water involves a long and arduous walk to a river or spring,carrying plastic containers or pots made of clay.Children are the ones who have to fetch water,and they have to do this early in the morning before they go to school,or in the evening when they come home. They often have to climb high hills or walk through valleys with narrow paths through dense vegetation. It is no surprise that they grow up muscular and fit after such daily exercise,walking for several kilometres carrying such heavy weights.64.Most Ugandans live .A.with their whole family in large mud houses in the countrysideB.in towns in small houses made of mud and ironC.in villages in small houses made of wet earth,grass and woodD.With their parents and children as well as their chickens and goats65.Where is food usually prepared?A.In the kitchen.B.On the floor in the middle of the house.C.On fires in front of the hut.D.In a small room attached to the main house.66.How are the old and new houses the same?A.Both of them have roofs made of corrugated iron.B.Neither of them have a garage or kitchen.C.Neither of them have electricity,lights or running water.D.Both of them have water inside but no electric light.67.The majority of Ugandan children have to .A.go to a well or a river and often carry it for a long distanceB.do a lot of work cooking and carrying waterC.collect water on the way home from schoolD.get water out of their own wellDPublished in 1896 and one of the most memorable horror stories ever written, Dracula, by Irish writer Bram Stoker,is the story of a vampire(吸血鬼),someone who lives on human blood. Stoker wrote the book after reading stories about Central European vampires and set his vnovel in Transylvania. Even today,there are readers of the book who believe that Transylvania is a mythical(神话的)country,a figment (虚构)of Stoker’s ima gination. Nothing could be further from the truth. Transylvania is part of modern-day Central European country Romania,and the country does indeed have a history of mythological vampires.However,Romanians are always puzzled by the description of the novel’s central character, Count Dracula,a tall,elegant aristocrat(贵族)with impeccable(完美的)manners who also happens to speak very good English. This is a world away from the images of vampires that they have grown up with. Romanian vampires are half-human creatures who live solitary lives in the forests,not aristocrats living in castles with well-stocked libraries.So where did Stoke get the image for his Dracula? The answer becomes clearer when one learns of his relationship with a man called Henry Irving,the greatest British stage actor of his time.Stoker was working as a civil servant in his home city of Dublin when he first met Irving. Bored with his tedious life and work, Stoker took every opportunity to visit the theatre and for a while was the drama critic for the Dublin Evening Mail. One of the reviews he wrote was of a performance of Shakespeare’s play Hamlet,with Irving in the lead role.Irving was so pleased with Stoker’s review of his performance that he asked to meet him. Stoker couldn’t believe his luck when one night,he was invited to a dinner party where Irving was the guest of honour. Irving entertained the assembled dinner guests with some renditions(表演)of famous poems and speeches from Shakespeare.Stoker was already writing the first chapters of Dracula and began to base the central character on Irving,in the vain hope that if it ever became a stage play, Irving would play the central character. Sadly,Irving never did,but the two men became close friends,and in 1878 Stoker left the civil service and became Irving’s manager in London.68.Bram Stoker set his novel in Transylvania because .A.it is in modern-day RomaniaB.Transylvania is a mythical countryC.he wanted to tell a true storyD.he had read stories about vampires from the area69.The central character of the novel .A.is very similar to the vampires that Romanians know aboutB.Is completely different from the vampires Romanians know aboutC.Has impeccable manners,like a real Romanian vampireD.Is puzzled by the comparison with Romanian vampires70.What was Stoker’s hope?A.That the book would become a stage-play.B.That Irving would play the central character in the stage play.C.That he could live in London.D.That Irving would work for him.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。

河南省郑州智林学校2014-2015学年高二英语12月月考试题A My l4-year-old son, John, and I spotted the coat at the same time in a second-hand clothing store. It stood out among big and old coats. It had beautiful tailoring and an unbelievable price: $28. I looked at my son and we both said nothing, but John’s eyes shone. Dark, woolen topcoats were popular with teenage boys, but they could cost several hundred dollars new. This coat was even better. John tried it on and turned from side to side, eyeing himself in the mirror. The fit was perfect.John wore the coat to school the next day and came home with a big grin. “Did the kids like your coat?”I asked. “They loved it.”he said.Over the next few weeks, John changed. He was polite, less argumentative, more thoughtful, and on the whole much happier. “Good dinner, mom.”he would say every evening. Without a word of objection he would carry in wood for the stove. One day when I suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner, John, who always put things off, said: “You’re right. I guess I will.”When I mentioned this incident to one of his teachers, she joked that the coat must have changed him.John and I both know we should never mistake a person’s clothes for the real person within them. But there is something to be said for wearing a standard of excellence for the world to see, for practicing standards of excellence in thought, speech, and behavior, and for matching what is on the inside to what is on the outside.21.

What message does the author intend to deliver in the article?A. We should not judge people by their appearance.B. Life is full of possibilities when we are young.C. It’s beneficial to try different things in our lives.D.

And making that dream come true often means finding a building no one else seems to want, which is exactly what happened to David Yocum and his partner, Brain Bell. Their building is a former automobile electrical—parts firm in Atlanta. From the outside, it looks too old, even something horrible, but open the door and you are in a wide, open courtyard, lined on three sides with rusting (生锈的) walls.In 2000, Yocum and Bell found this building in the city’s West End. Built in 1947, the structure had been abandoned (放弃) years earlier and the roof of the main building had fallen down. But the price was right, so Yocum bought it. He spent eight months of his off-hours on demolition (拆除), pulling rubbish out through the roof, because it was too dangerous to go inside the building, The demolition was hard work, but it gave him time to think about what he wanted to do, and “to treasure what was there—the walls, the rust, the light,”Yocum said. “Every season, more paint falls off the walls and more rust develops. It’s like an art installation (装置) in there—a slow-motion show.”Since the back building had been constructed without windows, an all-glass front was added to the building to give it a view of the courtyard, and skylights were installed in the roof. The back of the building is a working area and a living room for Yocum and his wife. A sort of buffer (缓冲) zone between the front and the back contains a bathroom, a kitchen and a mechanical (机械的) room, and the walls that separate these zones have openings that allow views through to the front of the studio and the courtyard beyond.Yocum and Bell, who have just completed an art gallery for the city, feel that the experience from the decoration of their building, focusing on the inside rather than the outside, has influenced their work. It has also given these architects a chance to show how they can make more out of less.29. According to the passage, it is for most young architects in big cities towork in a building of their own.A. easyB. unnecessaryC. unrealisticD. common30. Working on the old building, Yocum and Bell .A. pulled rubbish out through the roofB. removed the skylights from the bathroomC. presented a slow–motion show in an art galleryD. built a kitchen at the back part of the old building31. It can be inferred from the passage that Yocum and Bell .A. benefited a lot from pulling down the roofB. turned more old buildings into art galleriesC. got inspiration from decorating their old buildingD. paid more attention to the outside of the gallery32. The main idea of the passage is that .A. people can learn a lot from their failuresB. it is worthwhile to spend money on an old buildingC. people should not judge things by their appearanceD. creative people can make the best of what they haveDEven when you’re extremely busy, you aren’t using your time with 100% efficiency. There are gaps in everyone’s schedule where they aren’t doing anything important. Even if your schedule has no gaps, there is probably lots of time where you aren’t working as fast or as effectively as you possibly could.Why aren’t you completely efficient? It’s because time isn’t the limiting factor. If it were the limiting factor, people could work non-stop without breaks or any unproductive distractions (消遣). Instead, people, even those who are highly productive, need to take breaks, occasionally procrastinate (拖延) and slow down on tasks throughout the day.The real and most important limiting factor for productivity is your energy levels to pay attention. Energy levels limit your productivity because when you’re tired, you can have enough time and still not get everything done. Your attention ability is also limited, because even if there are a million things that need to be done, you can only focus on one or two at a time.You might not be able to add another 4-5 hours into your schedule without making some sacrifices. But even extremely busy people can add an hour or two into their schedule without cancelling (取消) anything. The reason why it’s hard to “find time”isn’t a lack of time. It’s because you don’t have enough energy left to focus on something else that needs to fit into your day.I first suspected time wasn’t the real problem during an extremely busy period in my life over a year ago. I was extremely busy, but at that time I still exercised regularly. I had daily to-do lists with over twenty items, and I still found time to exercise. However, after a few weeks off, due to illness, I stopped exercising. I was not busy by any standards, in fact, my schedule was incredibly light. Despite this free time, I found it hard to find time to exercise. It seemed to get pushed later and later into my schedule until it was gone. How can I explain this strange experience? I believe you have known it.33. If someone can’t work with 100% efficiency, the most important limiting factoris ________.A. a schedule without gapsB. breaks and distractionsC. the limited timeD. the limited energy34. The writer gives the example of himself in the last paragraph in order to________.A. prove what the real limiting factor isB. show us how busily he needs to workC. explain how important a healthy body isD. tell us what an strange experience he has35. What is the best title of the passage?A. Do You Really Lack Time?B. How Can You Work Efficiently?C. What Makes Your Energy Limited?D. When Should You Do Exercise?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。
(本试卷满分150分,考试时间150分钟;选择题按照题号涂卡,主观题均须答在答题纸上)第Ⅰ卷阅读题甲必考题一、(共9分,每小题3分)美国时代生活公司1990年出版的《人类文明史图鉴》一书显示,史学家不可能只是超然物外的旁观者。
就拿鸦片战争来说,作者谈到英国东印度公司对华贸易难以展开时写道:“在马戛尔尼大使扩大英国与中国贸易行动失败的情况下,该公司只好自己想办法来维持贸易平衡。
但东印度公司能用什么商品来打开中国市场呢?答案就是鸦片。
”看来其中的因果关系是很明显的:因为英方一系列要求(增加通商口岸、减低税率、设立租界等)未获应允,东印度公司才不得已求助于鸦片。
其实,即使清政府当初一切照英方的安排行事,不法鸦片贸易仍无法避免。
第一次鸦片战争后,英方的要求悉数满足,鸦片交易还是不能禁绝,这是最能说明问题的例证。
而且,《人类文明史图鉴》一书并不讳言:清朝政府早在1729年就颁布了禁烟诏令,嘉庆皇帝一即位(1796年)就下令再次禁烟,但在“十八世纪末”,每年仍有大约一千二百箱的鸦片运销中国,其中大部分来自孟加拉,东印度公司垄断了那里的鸦片生产。
“十八世纪末”这一表述方式比较模糊。
实际上,在马戛尔尼出使中国(1793年)之前,鸦片走私已很猖獗。
十八世纪七十年代初,东印度公司因经营不善而岌岌可危。
黑斯廷斯在1774年担任英属印度总督之后就采取了以邻为壑的政策:如果听任印度农民吸食当地盛产的鸦片,财政上当然不无小补,但东印度公司的利益最终将受到损害,即失去健壮的劳动力;在他的坚持下,东印度公司垄断的鸦片销往中国,于是偷运“福寿膏”逐渐成为英属印度的支柱产业。
尽管这位黑斯廷斯在1785年遭受弹劾,但他的鸦片走私政策却留给东印度公司滚滚不断的财源,直到二十世纪仍有英国史学家对黑斯廷斯当年的“远见”大加赞赏。
可以毫不夸张地说,到了十九世纪初,英国在印度的统治是靠中国的银两来维持的。
伯克在弹劾黑斯廷斯时称东印度公司是“有史以来最堕落的公共机构”,其成员系“人类的垃圾、渣滓”。

Thi s has been the first obvious increase since 2001.American schools last fall had 583,000 foreign students. The r ecord is 586,000. That was set in 2002 after many years of gain s. But after that the numbers fell. The terrorist attacks on Septe mber 11th, 2001 led to more visa (签证) requirements. Now stronger efforts are being made to get more foreign students to study in the .China remained in second place in front of South Korea but be hind , which sent almost 84,000 students last fall. The number o f Japanese fell sharply by nine percent, although it remained in fourth place.There were three percent drops from Indonesia and , the only African country in the top twenty last year. But there were obvio us increases from Saudi Arabia, Nepal and . The number of Sa udi students more than doubled, rising to nearly eight thousand. For a sixth year, the University of Southern California in had t he most foreign students. Columbia University in was second. Other schools in the top five were New York University, the Uni versity of Illinois and .Unlike American students in other countries, who often choose history and language study, the leading area of study in the wa s business and management. Second was engineering.The new report also says more than 220,000 Americans studi ed in other countries. That was during the 2005-2006 school year. It was a record number, and an increase of ei ght and a half percent from the year before. But only five perce nt of them stayed for a full year.58 . After 2002, the number of foreign students in the fell mainl y because ____.A. Americans were worried that foreign students might attack th emB. few American universities welcomed students from abroadC. their own countries could offer them a better educationD. it was harder for foreign students to get permission to study i n theWhich of the following Asian countries has the largest number o f students studyingin the ?A.

In which section of a newspaper could you most probably re ad this passage?A. Culture.B. Science.C. Education.D. Busine ss.五、任务型阅读:(10分)Don’t complain in the NBAThe NBA has a new rule this season. It’s called “zero tolerance”. NBA referees are not letting players complain too long or too l oudly about a referee’s call. A player who does can be given a t echnical foul (犯规). Two technical fouls, and the player is out of the game.The players don’t like the new rule and want the NBA to change it. They think it’s only natural to get angry during a close, hard-fought game if a call goes against you.But I like the “zero tolerance” rule and wish other sports would f ollow the NBA’s example. Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable if footb all, soccer and tennis players stopped arguing the calls and justplayed the game?The biggest reason I like the new rule is that it sets a good exa mple to younger players. When kids see stars such as Rasheed Wallace of the Detroit Pistons shouting at the referees and arg uing every call, they think it’s part of the game. But shouting at r eferees and arguing calls should never be part of any kid’s gam es. Kids should be taught to forget about the referees’ calls and pay attention to improving their skills and play their best.All players need to learn that you control only one thing in a ga me, and that’s your own performance. You can’t control what th e other players or trainers do. And you certainly can’t control th e calls the referees make.Finally, everyone from NBA all-stars to 8-year-olds should remember that being a basketball referee is a hard j ob. The referee has to make dozens of sudden calls. No hesitat ion. No second chances. Not even the best referee gets every c all right.Maybe if the players, trainers and fans who shout at the referee s had to wear a whistle and call a few games, there wouldn’t be as many complaints about the “zero tolerance” rule.第六部分:完成句子(20×0.5)直到1938年第一个彩色电视节目才播出。
