M: Well, no...I came back late yesterday and found John sleeping in the chair. He'd been writing a report all day long and he was too tired to go out again, so we gave the lesson a miss.
W: You've missed quite a lot of the lessons lately, haven't you? Are you losing interest?
M: Yes, I'm afraid so. Neither John nor I have a gift for language. People just laugh at us when we try to speak German. How did you and Jane pick it up so quickly and easily? You've hardly been in Germany a month.
W: It was neither quick nor easy. We'd both studied the language before we came, and we only needed to review it.
M: Anyway, all our friends here speak English very well, so we don't really need to learn German.
听下面一段独白，回答第18至第20三个小题。现在，你有15秒钟的时间阅读这三个
小题。
(Text 10)
W: Today I'd like to talk about some of the ideas we've studied about living in foreign countries. People often have trouble getting used to a new culture. They're usually very happy when they first arrive in a foreign country. However, if they stay a long time, they may start to feel the different stages of culture shock. They can get lonely or sad because they can't deal with the local people.
How quickly you get used to cultural differences may depend on the way you learn. People need to interact with others to learn well. That's a problem if they can't speak the language. On the other hand, some can study the situation and make good guesses about the culture. When people finally begin to understand some of the language and make some new friends, they'll gradually enjoy themselves and feel satisfied.

第二部分：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4个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
Paracutin was born in Mexico in February 1943. At the end of one week Paracutin was 500 feet high，and it is now over 9,000 feet high. Today Paracutin is asleep.
What is Paracutin? It was the first volcano (火山) in the world which was seen from its birth right up to the present day. On February 20,1943, a peasant and his wife set out to work in their cornfields from the Mexican village of Paracutin. They were suprised to find the earth warm under their feet. Suddenly they heard noises deep in the earth and a small hole appeared in their field. In the afternoon there was a sudden loud noise and stones were thrown high in the air. The peasants ran from the field and turned to watch. They saw the birth of a volcano.
Large quantities of stone and lava (岩浆) broke out and a little hill began to form. By evening this hill was 100 feet high and hot ashes were falling on the village. At night the strong light of the hot lava lit up the countryside. The trees near the village were killed and the villagers had to leave their houses.
When the village was destroyed, its name was given to the volcano. The news quickly reached Mexico City, far to the east. Many people came to watch the scene. The volcano grew and grew for ten years and hundreds of square miles of forest were destroyed. Then Paracutin went to sleep.
21．In this passage the writer is trying to ________.
A．tell us an interesting happening
B．explain a scientific theory
C．make us believe something
D．make up an interesting story
答案：A主旨大意题。通读全文可知作者要告诉我们一件有趣的事情，一座火山竟然从脚底下冒了出来。
22．What can we learn about volcanoes from this passage?
A．New volcanoes may appear in places where people do not expect them to be.
B．Volcanoes are always growing.
C．Volcanoes are active from time to time.
D．New volcanoes are active for only ten years.
答案：A推理判断题。从第二段第四、五句话“They were su rprised to find...Suddenly they heard noises... in their field”可以推知火山也许会在人们没有预料到的地方冒出来。
23．What was destroyed in the growing up of the volcano?
A．The little hill of stones.
B．The villagers living nearby.
C．The forests and fields around Paracutin.
D．The Mexican peasant and his wife.
答案：C细节理解题。由第三段最后一句话可知。
24．Paracutin was once the name of ________.
A．a peasant B．a village
C．an old mountain D．a Mexican
答案：B细节理解题。由最后一段第一句话可知，“当这个村子被毁之后，它的名字就成了火山的名字”。故Paracutin曾经是个村名。
B
During a small earthquake，you will feel a little shaking. Pictures hanging on the walls might move back and forth.Dishes might rattle ( 发出响声) inside the kitchen cabinet. A lamp might possibly fall and break.
In a very strong earthquake, you might be thrown upward or down to the ground. Cracks might appear in the ground. Windows might be broken. Buildings and bridges might fall down. People might be injured or even killed.
Strong earthquakes often suddenly break electric wires. That means electric lights and machines will not work. Water pipes sometimes break, so people have no water to drink. Pipes that carry natural gas, and tanks that hold petrol and dangerous chemicals, can break and start fires.
Aftershocks (余震) are mini－quakes that come after the main part of an earthquake. They can cause even more damage. Aftershocks are especially dangerous for rescue workers who have gone into ruined buildings to help people who are trapped inside.The buildings can
collapse,_trapping the rescue workers along with the people they are trying to help.
Very strong earthquakes can cause tsunamis in the ocean, which may bring great damage.Earthquakes can cause landslides where dirt and rocks slide down the sides of a mountain and damage buildings and hurt people. Earthquakes can also cause avalanches (雪崩) and heavy snow slide down a mountainside. An avalanche can be just as dangerous as a landslide.
25．All the following may be the results of a strong earthquake EXCEPT that ________.
A．strong bridges fall down
B．people have no water to drink
C．some dangerous chemicals flow out
D．dishes in the kitchen shake and make sounds
答案：D细节理解题。根据第一段对轻微地震及第二、三段对强震的描述可知，D项(厨房内餐具晃动并发出响声)是在轻微地震中出现的状况。
26．What can we learn from the passage?
A．Aftershocks are not as dangerous as the main part of an earthquake.
B．Aftershocks are even more dangerous than big earthquakes to rescue workers.
C．Aftershocks always cause more serious harm than the main part of an earthquake.
D．Aftershocks are strong earthquakes following the main part of an earthquake.
答案：B细节理解题。根据第四段对余震的介绍可知，对救援人员而言，余震比强震更危险。
27．The underlined word “collapse” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.
A．fall down B．shake out
C．set up D．break through
答案：A词义猜测题。第四段主要介绍了余震的危害，其中之一就是会导致建筑物倒塌。结合画线词后面的“trapping the rescue workers along with the people they are trying to help”可知，画线词意为“坍塌，倒塌”。
28．This passage is mainly about ________.
A．how earthquakes take place
B．what causes strong earthquakes
C．strong earthquakes and light ones
D．the types of earthquakes and their damage
答案：D主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了轻微地震及强震的表现及它们可能造成的破坏，因此D项(地震的种类及其会造成的破坏)符合题意。
C
The ground we walk on seems firm, but deep under the earth and under the sea the rocks change and move. In some parts of the world there are“fire mountains”，which we call
volcanoes.From time to time they burst open and throw out fire and burning ash. These volcanoes are very dangerous.
Hong Kong does not have any volcanoes but there are many in Indonesia and Philippines. There is also a famous mountain near Tokyo, Japan, which is a volcano too.Its name is Mount Fuji.For much of the year, it is covered with snow.
One of the most famous volcanoes which erupted(喷发)in recent times was Krakatoa, on an island in Indonesia.The first explosions(爆发)took place on 20th May, 1883, but the big eruption did not come until the 26th and 27th August of that year. The people on the island were used to the explosions by that time, and so they were completely unprepared for this terrible happening. Almost all the people on the island died and the explosion also made huge waves in the seat, which drowned (淹死)many people on the other island nearby. After the eruption was over, people saw that the whole northern part of the island had completely disappeared. Scientists say that 15 cubic(立方)kilometers of rocks and ash were thrown up in the explosion. The noise of the explosion was heard nearly 5,000 kilometers away in the middle of the Indian Ocean, and the city of Jakarta was completely dark for about two and a half hours.
文章大意：本文以日本的富士山为重点，介绍了世界火山的一些情况。
29．There are many volcanoes ________.
A．everywhere in the world
B．under the earth and the sea
C．in Hong Kong
D．in Indonesia
答案：D从第一段第二句中“In some parts of the world there are fire mountains, which we call volcanoes.”和“Hong Kong doe s not have any volcanoes but there are many volcanoes in Indonesia and Philippines.”看出火山并不是到处都有，排除A项和B项，香港没有火山，排除C项，故选D项。
30．Mount Fuji is famous just because ________.
A．it is covered with snow for much of the year
B．it is a volcano
C．it is near Tokyo
D．it is in Japan
答案：B从第二段第二句“There is also a famous mountain near Tokyo, Japan, which is a volcano too. Its name is Mount Fuji.For much of the year, it is covered with snow.”看出富士山出名主要是因为它是一座火山。
31．The people near Krakatoa were unprepared when it had its biggest explosion because people there ________.
A．had never met any explosions of the volcano before
B．were used to the explosions of the volcanoes by that time
C．didn't want to leave their island
D．could do nothing but wait
答案：B从第三段第三句“The people on the isl and were used to the explosions by that time, and so they were completely unprepared for this terrible happening.”看出当地的人们已经习惯了它的爆发，因此，当最大的爆发发生时，人们没有准备。
D
A California family drives a car that could help protect the environment.
When Jon and Sandy go to the store or to their daughters' soccer games, they drive in high-tech style. They drive a $1 million, fuel-cell-powered car. It may be the world's most expensive car and one of the most environmentally friendly cars.
The FCX is the first fuel-cell-powered car to be used by a family anywhere in the world. The FCX uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel.
Car makers have been working to develop vehicles that are better for the environment. They are developing cars that use fuel other than gasoline.
What is fuel cell technology?
Fuel cell technology works by changing the chemicals hydrogen and oxygen into water. This process produces electricity, and water vapor which comes out of the exhaust pipe. Most cars release dangerous gases such as carbon monoxide (一氧化碳) and carbon dioxide. Many scientists say these gases are major contributors to global warming.
”The FCX is driven just like any other vehicle on the road, but without the gases which pollute the environment, ”scientists say.
Fuel cell technology has been around since the 1800s, but scientists have yet been to perfect it. They say it may take years before the technology is ready for widespread use.
Creating environmentally friendly cars
Another earth-friendly car is already on the market. Hybrid cars use both gasoline and an electric motor. They are becoming more popular with customers because they cut pollution and improve fuel efficiency.
32．Which of the following about the FCX is not true?
A．It may be the most expensive car in the world.
B．It is one of the most environmentally friendly cars.
C．It releases dangerous gases to pollute the air.
D．It uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel other than gasoline.
答案：C细节理解题。从第二段中的“It may be... one of the most environmentally friendly cars.”和第六段中的“... but without the gases which pollute the environment...”等处可判断答案
为C项。
33．According to the passage, what is the major cause for global warming?
A．Gases from FCX.
B．Water vapor from cars.
C．Hydrogen and oxygen.
D．Gases from cars.
答案：D细节理解题。由第五段尾句“很多科学家声称这些气体(一氧化碳和二氧化碳)是造成全球变暖的主要因素”可知答案。
34．From the passage, we know that fuel cell technology ________.
A．works by water
B．has a history for over two hundred years
C．works by electricity
D．has been widely used since the 1800s
答案：B细节理解题。由倒数第二段“燃料电池技术19世纪始就已存在，但科学家们却一直在完善它”可判断出该技术“有200余年的历史”。
35．We can infer from the passage that ________.
A．future cars will be environmentally friendly
B．there will be no gasoline for cars
C．people can't afford to buy cars in the future
D．global warming has been stopped
答案：A推理判断题。从短文最后一句话“They are becoming more popular with customers...”可推断A项正确，其他选项在文中没有依据。

Don't forget last-minute preparation.
Have your sharpened pencils and other things in your bag ready the night before the test. It's important to get a good night's sleep and then eating a healthy breakfast the next morning. __40__ Also, studying all the way up until test time can only create more anxiety.

选修6 Unit 1 Art-Reading A SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING Art is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. As there are so many different styles of Western art, it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones, starting from the sixth century AD. The Middle Ages (5th to the 15th century AD) During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was to represent religious themes. A conventional artist of this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. A typical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created feeling of respect and love for God. But it was evident that ideas were changing in the 13th century when painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way. The Renaissance (15th to 16th century) During the Renaissance, new ideas and values graduallv replaced those held in the Middle Ages.People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess t heir own paintings, so they could decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements. One of the most important discoveries during this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the roles of perspective had not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such realistic pictures. By coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces for which this period is famous. Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century) In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal. from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly industrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes. Naturally, these changes also led to new painting styles. Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists, who lived and worked in Paris.

西方绘画艺术简史 艺术是受一个民族的风俗和信仰影响。西方艺术风格经历了多次变革。因为西方艺术多种多样，在短短的一篇课文里不可能进行全面的描述。因此，本书只谈及从公元六世纪开始以来最重要的几种艺术风格。 中世纪(5到15世纪) 在中世纪时期,画家的主要目的是把宗教主题表现出来。这一时期传统的艺术家无意于如实地展现自然和人物。这时的典型绘画充满了宗教的特征，体现出了对上帝的爱戴和敬重。但是，13世纪时绘画观念在改变是显而易见的，像乔托这样的画家开始以一种更现实的方式来画宗教场景。 文艺复兴时期（15世纪到16世纪） 在文艺复兴时期,新的思想和价值观逐渐取代了中世纪的思想和价值观。人们开始较少关注宗教主题而采取一种更人性化的生活态度。同时画家们回到罗马、希腊的古典艺术理念上。他们力争如实画出人物和自然。富人们想拥有自己的艺术品，这样就可以装饰自己的高级宫殿和豪宅。他们出价聘请著名艺术家不仅让他们画他们的活动和成就，还要他们画自己的肖像、房子和所有物。 在此期间，最重要的发现之一就是如何用透视法来画出事务。这一手法是1428年由马萨乔第一次使用的。当人们第一次看到他的画时，还以为是透过墙上的小洞来观看真实的场景，并对此深信不疑。如果没有发现透视法，就没有人能画出如此逼真的画。巧合的是，这一时期油画颜料也得到了发展，使得绘画的色彩看上去更丰富、更深沉。没有新的颜料和新的手法，我们就不能看到很多使这一时期著名的杰作。 印象派(19世纪后期到20世纪初期) 19世纪后期，欧洲发生了巨大的变化，从以农业为主的社会转变成了以工业为主的社会。许多人从农村迁入到新城市。有许多新发明和社会变革。这些变革也自然地促成了新的绘画风格。在那些突破传统画法的画家中有生活和工作在法国巴黎的印象派画家。 印象派画家是第一批室外写景的画家。他们急切地想把一天中不同时间投射到物体上的光线和阴影呈现出来。然而由于自然光的变化很快，印象派画家们必须很快地作画，因此，他们的画就不像以前那些画家们的画那样细致了。起初，很多人不喜欢这种画法，甚至还怒不可遏。他们说这些画家作画时漫不经心，粗枝大叶，而他们的作品更是荒谬可笑。 现代艺术(20世纪到今天) 在印象派作品的创建初期，他们是存在着争议的，但是如今已经被人们接受而成为我们现在所说的“现代艺术”的始祖了。这是因为印象派鼓励画家用一种崭新的视角看待他们的环境。如今，现代艺术风格有好几十种，然而如果没有印象派，那么这许多不同的风格也许就不可能存在。一方面，有些现代艺术是抽象的，也就是说，画家并不打算把我们眼睛看到的东西如实地画出来，而是集中展现物体的某些品质特征，用色彩、线条和形状把它们呈现出来。而另一方面，有些现代派的艺术作品却是那么真实，看上去就像是照片。这些风格如此不同。谁能预言将来会有什么样的绘画风格？

Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists, who lived and worked in Paris. The Impressionists were the first painters to work outdoors. They were eager to show how light and shadow fell on objects at different times of day. However, because natural light changes so quickly, the Impressionists had to paint quickly. Their paintings were not as detailed as those of earlier painters. At first, many people disliked this style of painting and became very angry about it. They said that the painters were careless and their paintings were ridiculous. Modern Art(29th century to today) At the time they were created, the Impressionist paintings were controversial, but today they are accepted as the beginning of what we call "modern art".
