并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．AA newly-published study has shown that loneliness can spread from one person to another, like a disease. Researchers used information from the Framingham Study, which began in 1948. The Framingham Study gathers information about physical and mental health, personal behavior and diet. At first, the study involved about 5,000 people in the American state of Massachusetts. Now, more than 12,000 individuals are taking part.Information from the Framingham Study showed earlier that happiness can spread from person to person. So can behaviors like littering and the ability to stop smoking.University of Chicago psychologist John Cacioppo led the recent study. He and other researchers attempted to show how often people felt lonely. They found that the feeling of loneliness spread through social groups.Having a social connection with a lonely person increased the chances that another individual would feel lonely. In fact, a friend of a lonely person was 52% more likely to develop feelings of loneliness. A friend of that person was 25% more likely. The researchers say this shows that a person could indir ectly be affected by someone’s loneliness.The effect was strongest among friends. Neighbors were the second most affected group. The effect was weaker on husbands and wives, and brothers and sisters. The researchers also found that loneliness spread more easily among women than men.The New York Times newspaper reports that, on average, people experience feelings of loneliness about 48 days a year. It also found that every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about five percent, or two and a half fewer lonely days.Loneliness has been linked to health problems like depression and sleeping difficulties. The researchers believe that knowing the causes of loneliness could help in reducing it.The study suggests that people can take steps to stop the spread of loneliness. They can do this by helping individuals they know who may be experiencing loneliness. The result can be helpful to the whole social group.1. What is TRUE about the Framingham Study?A. It was only conducted in 1948.B. It involves more than 12,000 participants.C. It was led by John Cacioppo.D. It showed that any behavior could spread.2. Which statement about the spread of loneliness is true?A. The spreading effect was the second strongest among friends.B. No spreading effect was found on husbands and wives.C. Women are more likely to be affected than men.D. Brothers are more easily affected than neighbors.3. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Actions should be taken to help lonely people.B. People feel lonely for many reasons.C. Ways to fight against loneliness.D. Lonely people can affect others.BEveryone would like to be a millionaire , a person with a lot of money, but can you imagine having over $30 million and only being 20 years old? Britney Spears from Kentwood, a small town in Louisiana, is only 20 years old. She is a world famous film star with not only $30 million but also a $2 million house in LA. At her young age, she can look after her family financially (经济上) all her life. This year is a big year for Britney. She is now on a 31-day tour of the US and every concert is a sell-out. That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000 people every time. It’s a tiring schedule but brings her a lot. When touring, she goes to bed around 1 a.m. and then has a lie-in until 1 p.m. the next day. Her philosophy (人生观) is to take care of the body and relax but always make sure you work hard and have fun.Spears is not pleased with only touring and selling nearly 40 million records so she decided to step into the movie business and try a bit of acting. She made an appearance in “Austin Power 3”this year and she is filming a teenage light play that will come out in March 2003. In this movie, she has a starring role.For Britney, acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic (热心的) about it all. If her movies are successful, her money in the bank is sure to grow by another few million dollars but she does it for the love, not the money, as she herselftells the reporters .1. We can infer (推断) from the text that most millionaires are __________.A. older than 20B. around 20C. in their 30sD. in their 40s2. The underlined word “you”in the first paragraph refers to __________.A. a person in generalB. a special personC. Britney SpearsD. a person interested in money3. Which of the following is not true according to the text?A. Though young, Britney can support her family now.B. While touring, Britney sleeps about 12 hours a day.C. The teenage comedy movie was based on Britney’s own story.D. Britney will be even richer with her movies successful.4. According to Britney Spears, she works __________.A. to be a great actressB. for the enjoymentC. for moneyD. to be more famousCBecause I am extremely vulnerable to both slick advertising and peer pressure, I’ve been thinking about getting an iPad. But here’s the problem: I’m cheap, and the iPad’s not. If I’m going to fork over at least $499 for a new device, I want to try it out and make sure it’s not just a larger, shinier version of my iPhone. But if I went to my local Apple Store, I’d get to spend only a few minutes testin g out the machine. I wanted more time than that, so I rented one for $15 a day from a guy on SnapGoods.The Internet start-up in Brooklyn runs on simple reasoning: there are people who want to borrow stuff –camping equipment, food processors, robot vacuums, etc. –and there are people who have stuff they want to lend. SnapGoods helps these two groups connect over the Web. SnapGoods is one of many sites that have sprung up to facilitate offline sharing. Some sites have a narrow, obvious focus (like ) while others are more obscure (Neighborhood Fruit helpspeople share what’s growing in their yards or find fruit trees on public land). But regardless of whether the sharing is free or involves a fee, these transactions often come with a stick-it-to-the-man attitude. ―Borrow these things from your neighbors,‖ reads one earnest request on , ―The owner-ship has SAILED!‖All of these sites are encouraging something academics call collaborative consumption – in other words, peer-to-peer sharing or renting. Renting something you don’t need to use very often makes a lot more sense than buying it and letting it collect dust in your garage. There’s a green aspect as well, since sharing helps cut down on overall use of resources. But one of collaborative consumption’s most surprising benefits turns out to be social. In an era when families are scattered around the country and we may not know the people down the street from us, sharing things –even with strangers we’ve just met online –allows us to make meaningful connections.―This isn’t just about saving the environment or saving a dollar,‖ says SnapGoods CEO Ron Williams, who came up with the idea after renting a stranger’s motorcycle via Craigslist. ―This is about saving yourself by makin g informed consumer decisions.‖I’m not sure if I got a thrill when I borrowed Goodwin’s iPad, but it did feel good to make a connection. In the end, though, I decided not to purchase an iPad. Sorry, Steve Jobs. I’m just not that into owning things anymore.1. Which of the following is NOT a reason for the author’s renting an iPad instead of buying one?A. The iPad is expensive and the author wants to make sure an iPad is worthy.B. He has already got an iPhone and expects to test the better quality of iPad.C. The local Apple Store only offters limited time to test out the machine.D. The iPad is so expensive that he cannot afford it.2. SnapGoods is a website which________.A. facilitates online sharingB. helps people borrow things from their neighborsC. connects borrowers and lenders for stuff sharingD. sells iPad online3. What is Ron Williams’ attitude towards collaborative consumption?A. FavorableB. CriticalC. IndifferentD. Not known4. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. SnapGoods: a Good Place For ShoppingB. Borrow, Don’t Buy: Websites That Let Strangers ShareC. Why Do I RentD. Tips For Selling Things On the InternetDHigh school dropouts earn an average of $9,000 less per year than graduates. Now a new study denies a common belief why they quit. It’s much more basic than flunking out(不及格).Society tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can’t make it. They are lazy, and perhaps not too bright. So researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450 kids who quit school about why they left.―The vast majority actually had passing grades and they were confident that they could have graduated from high school.‖John Bridgeland, the executive researcher said. About 1 million teens leave school each year. Only about half of African-American and Hispanic(美籍西班牙的)students will receive a diploma, and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision. So, if failing grades don’t explain why these kids quit, what does? Again, John Bridgeland: ―The most dependable finding was that they were bored.‖―They found classes uninteresting；they weren’t inspired or motivated. They didn’t see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom to their own lives, or to their career aspirations.‖The study found that most teens who do drop out wait until they turn sixteen, which happens to be the age at which most states allow students to quit. In the US, only one state, New Mexico, has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high school until they graduate. Only four states: California, Tennessee, Texas and Utah, plus theDistrict of Columbia, require school attendance until age 18, no exceptions. Jeffrey Garin, another researcher, says raising the compulsory attendance age may be one way to keep more kids in school.―As these dropouts look back, they realize they’ve made a mistake. And anything that sort of gives these people an extra push to stick it out and see it through to the end, is probably help ful measure.‖New Hampshire may be the next state to raise its school attendance age to 18.But critics say that forcing the students unwilling to continue their studies to stay in school misses the point—the need for reform. It’s been called for to reinven t high school education to make it more challenging and relevant, and to ensure that kids who do stick it out receive a diploma that actually means something.【小题1】Most high school students drop out of school because_______.A.they have failing gradesB.B. they take no interest in classesC. they are mistreatedD. they are lazy and not intelligent【小题2】According to the passage, which state has a law requiring school attendance until they graduate?A.New HampshireB. UtahC. New MexicoD. The District of Columbia【小题3】The underlined words ―stick it out‖probably means―________‖.A. complete schoolingB. solve the problemC. love having classesD. believe in themselves【小题4】In the last paragraph, the writer is trying to________.A. analyze the reason why students quit schoolB. suggest raising the compulsory attendance ageC. raise awareness of reforming high school educationD. wish to make laws to guarantee no dropout第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）【题文】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。

Knowing what to do before and during a tornado can save your life and the life of your loved ones. When you hear that you are in a tornado watch,it means that tornadoes or other kinds of dangerous weather are on the way. You need to be ready to go to a safe shelter if tornadoes do happen or if there is a warning. Listen to local radio or TV programmes for the update so that you have information to make decisions about your safety.Tornado warnings mean that a tornado has been seen, or that radar has shown there would be a tornado. When a tornado warning is issued for your town or county, take shelter immediately. Tornado sirens(警报器) warn people who are outdoors. Do not expect to hear sirens if you are indoors. Listen to weather reports and watch TV if you are indoors. Remember to have fresh batteries for your radios and flashlights.Plan ahead for tornado watches and warnings. Talk to your family, friends and neighbours so that you know safe places to go to get out of danger. Here are some important tips: • Take shelter in a basement, away from any windows.If you are in a house or building with no basement, go to the lowest floor, a small centre room such as a bathroom or closet, under the stairs, or in an inside hallway with no windows.• If you are in a mobile home or trailer, plan ahead and get out!It is not safe to be in a mobile home or trailer during a tornado. You need to make plans with family, friends or neighbours to go to a safer, stronger home or another building to take shelter.• It is very risky to be in a car or truck during a tornado.Know if there are tornado watches in the area and avoid driving into dangerous situations. Instead, take shelter in a basement or strong building.• Have an emergency kit ready and keep it in your safe area.A few ideas for things to have in an emergency kit would be water, a flashlight, food (like crackers, peanut butter,granola bars),a radio that uses batteries, any medications you need, and a first-aid kit.If you need any further information about preparing for the tornado season or making an emergency kit, call the Four Corners Health Department at (402)362-2621 or click here to view the website http://www. yorknewstimes. com.1.If you are told that you're in a tornado watch, __________.A.it means that you should wear your watchB.it means tornadoes are possible in the areaC.it means that you have found a safe shelterD.it means tornadoes will leave where you are2.What should you do when you are in a trailer and a tornado comes?A.You should remain still in the running trailer.B.You should find a bathroom to hide in.C.You should turn to friends or neighbours for help.D.You should get into a building to shelter yourself.3.What is the passage mainly about?A.How tornadoes come about.B.What tornadoes lead to.C.What to do before and during a tornado.D.When and where tornadoes occur.4.Where can we probably read the passage?A.In a magazine.B.In a newspaper.C.On a website.D.In an advertisement.三、阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

So try to praise your friends, including your general ones.Friends can be loyal (忠诚的) and trustworthyTrust and loyalty go hand in hand for friends. Friends can share secrets with you, because good friends never break confidence (信心) and are loyal forever.36. From Joy Steven’s words, we can conc lude that ________.A. a friend in need is a friend indeedB. it is never too late to make a friendC. it is late to make a friend when you need oneD. everyone needs a friend in his life37. To make and keep many friends, you need to do the following EXCEPT ___________.A. get in touch with peopleB. understand your friendsC. praise your friendsD. quarrel with your friends38. The passage mainly tells us ______________.A. how to communicate with a friendB. how to develop friendshipC. when to make a friendD. how to praise a friendBLiving and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.Communication begins with the concerns (关心) of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and ignore (不理睬) everyone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance(表达)of information, correspondence(通信), means of communication: a letter or a message”. To maintain (保持) a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it’s just by writing a note.When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make the m see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, but ask them politely to listen to you. Yelling or walking away only makes the situation worse.This is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, not when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let the incident go. Communication is the key factor here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.Communicati on isn’t a one-way deal: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s, telling the other person how you feel---listening is the key factor to communication.39. In the writer’s view, dealing with parents is __________ than wi th children.A. more difficultB. easierC. more uninterestingD. more interesting40. The main idea of the second paragraph is __________.A. the importance of friendshipB. to make your feeling known to othersC. the importance of communicationD. the disagreement between generations41. When parents and children are in communication, the key to a happy relationship is that __________.A. children should always obey their parentsB. they should be equalC. parents play the leading partD. both make the opposite know their feelings42. The example in this passage proves that ___________.A. Sophie’s parents are willing to listen to herB. Sophie is very polite to her parentsC. Sophie did well in explaining her being lateD. communication is the solution to misunderstandingCWhen I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called “Brownie”. My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around.One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up (咬破) one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl,” she looked down at the groun d and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet, she went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she’d let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we’d be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. The funny thing is that she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone.Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss days when she was with us.43. What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family?A. Look at them sadly.B. Keep them company.C. Play games with them.D. Touch them gently.44. We can infer from Paragraph 2 that Brownie__________.A. would eat anything when hungryB. felt sorry for her mistakeC. loved playing hide-and-seekD. disliked the author’s dad45. Some people got frightened by Brownie when she__________.A. smiledB. barkedC. rushed to themD. tried to be funny46. Which of the following best describes Brownie?A. ShyB. PoliteC. BraveD. CaringDI grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives (观点) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.With this unshakable belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world. He cannot wri te without loving to read, because only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction (文学作品). As a law student, my reading is in fact limited to subject matter—the volume (量) of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else. Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life. Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.47. What can be inferred about the author as a child?A. He never watched TV.B. He read what he had to.C. He found reading unbelievable.D. He considered reading part of his life.48. The underlined word “voice” in the second paragraph most probably means “”.A. an ideaB. a sound qualityC. a way of writingD. a world to write about49. What effect does reading have on the author?A. It helps him to realize his dream.B. It opens up a wider world for him.C. It makes his college life more interesting.D. It increases his interest in worldwide travel.50. Which of the following can be the best title of this text?A. Why do I read?B. How do I read?C. What do I read?D. When do I read?四、单词拼写（共10小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分）51.

It kidnaps our peace of mind, tortures our evenings when we return home from work and murders those beautiful moments. But like all enemies, this enemy can also be got rid of !Put your body in motion.Moving from the chair to the couch while watching TV is not being physically active! Physical activity is one of the most important ways to keep stress away by clearing your head and lifting your spirits. Physical activity also increases endorphin levels--- the natural “feel-good” chemicals.LaughSome say that laughter is the best medicine---well, in many cases, it is! Do you know that it takes 15 facial muscles to laugh? Lots of laughing can make you feel good--- and, that good feeling can stay with you even after the laughter stops. So, head off stress with regular doses of laughter by watching a funny movie or cartoons, reading a joke book, or even make up your own riddles…laughter can make you feel like a new person!Everyone has those days when they do something really silly or stupid. Instead of getting upset with yourself, laugh out loud! No one’s perfect! Life s hould be about having fun. So, lighten up! Have fun with friends.Being with people you like is always a good way to get rid of your stress. Get a group together to go to the movies or play a board game---or just hang out and talk. Friends can help you work through your problems and let you see the brighter side of things.Spill(发泄) to someone you trust.Instead of keeping your feelings bottled up inside, talk to someone you trust or respect about what’s bothering you. It could be a friend, a parent, someone in your family, or a teacher. Talking out your problems and seeing them from a different view might help you figure out ways to deal with them. Just remember, you don’t have to let it alone!Lend a hand.Get involved in an activity that helps others. It’s almost impossible to feel stressed out when you’re helping someone else. It’s also a great way to find out about yourself and the special qualities you never knew you had! Signing up for a service project is a good idea, but helping others is as easy as saying hello, holding a door, or volunteering to keep a neighbor’s pe t. The feeling you will get from helping others is greater than you can imagine!In conclusion, remember, you’re not alone---everyone has stresses in their lives…it’s up to you六、书面表达（20分）据调查，人们对学生网上交友持不同意见。

You must first go where there are people. You won’t make friends staying home alone.Joining a club or a group, talking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier. Or join someone in some activity.Many people are nervous when talking to new people. After all meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it’s human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about unknown. Most of our fears about dealing with new people comes from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are judging us, finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept your self as you are, and try to put the other person at ease. You’ll both feel more comfortable.Try to act self-confident even if you don’t feel that way. When you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall and straight, look directly at other people and smile.If you see someone you’d like to speak to, say something. Don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation.Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person—friendship is based on mutual liking and “give and take”. It takes time and effort to develop.21. The best topic of the passage may be ________.A. FriendshipB. Making friendsC. Meeting New PeopleD. Facing the Unknown22. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. Making friends needs practicing.B. Making friends needs to be more active in getting in touch with people.C. When meeting someone, make him feel nice and easy.D. Before making friends with someone, judge him if he’s too thi s or too that.23. The development of friendship needs ________.A. a lot of moneyB. lots of conversationC. time and effortD. carefully judgingBWell, when the huge wave hit the boat, my safety belt br oke and I was swept overboard. I don’t really understand how it happened, but I heard someone yell out, but then my boat, Wild One, went off into the darkness and I was alone in a very rough sea. I then spent five and a half hours in the water. The place where it happened was, oh, about 50 kilometers from shore. It was likely that I wouldn’t see another day, but I always thought I’d overcome the difficulties. At first I was watching out for Wild One. The rest of the crew knew I was gone, so they were sure to come back and look for me. After a while, I saw the boat’s lights when it came looking for me. They were within about 300 meters of me, but the spotlight just missed me. The reason why they didn’t see me was because of the huge waves. You know, I started sailing when I was seven, and started ocean racing when I was about eighteen, but I’d never been overboard before. I believed I was going to survive, but it was very cold, and as the hours passed I started to get desperate—and frozen! It was around 5 am when I saw the lights of a tanker coming towards me. I figured it was probably my last chance. At first, I thought they were going to miss me, and then they made a slight turn and I yelled out “Help!” and they heard me. They covered me with as much dry clot hes as they could, and a guy with me stayed to transfer his body heat to me.24. The author of the passage was alone in the sea NOT because ________.A. the wind was too strongB. the wave hit the boatC. the safety belt was brokenD. his boat was in the darkness25. He was not saved by his crew because ________.A. he didn’t yell out “Help!”B. 300 meters was long distanceC. he was not foundD. he didn’t see the spotlight26. It was inferred from the passage that ________.A. he was swept overboard at about midnightB. Wild One was the name of a crew memberC. he started ocean racing at about tenD. he was too hopeless to take the last chance27. One of the guy who saved him stayed with him in order to ________.A. cover him with more dry clothesB. warm him with his body heatC. comfort himD. congratulate himCAustralia is famous for its beautiful beaches. And Australian people love swimming and going to the beach. But it wasn't always that way.Different Climate, Different habitsWhen Europeans first invaded Australia, the only people here who were good at swimming were the Aboriginal people. The Europeans came from climates where it was too cold to swim. Also some people worried that they would get sick if they wet their whole body.However the warm climate of Australia soon changed their attitude to swimming. At first, only men swam. They swam naked - there were no women to see them.Cover up!By the 1880’s and 90’s visiting the beach was very fashionable and a lot of people went there, especially in warm weather. They wore everyday street clothes - much more than people wear at the beach today.In those days, people believed they should cover most of their body so it would not be seen by the opposite sex. Special bathing costumes were designed for women. These costumes used a lot of cloth and were very heavy when wet, making it difficult to swim.Laws Made and Laws ChangedThe government decided to stop men swimming naked. It passed a law which forbade bathing between 6am and 7pm. Many people objected to this law and wrote letters to the government asking it to change the laws. In 1903, the laws changed; people could swim in the daytime, but they had to wear neck-to-knee costumes.The Shrinking CostumeAs time passed, swimming costumes became smaller and more convenient.At first men and women were covered from neck to knee. Then the arms became bare. Then more of the legs were uncovered. Each new change was regarded by many as shocking and rude and people wrote letters to the newspapers complaining about the new costumes. Nowadays some people go to special "nude (裸的) beaches" to swim naked.However, most people cover their bodies more than they did ten years ago -- not because they think bare skin isshocking -- but to protect their skin from the harmful rays of the sun.28.The climate of Australia _____.A.made European setters think differently about swimmingB.change Eu ropean setters’ swimming costumeC.made European setters hotterD.made European setters swim naked29．During the late 19th century, swimmers should _____.A.hide when they see a person of the opposite sexB.cover their bodiesC, wear many heavy clothes D.take no notice of their clothes30．According to the law just before1903, people must _____.A.not swim in the main daylight hoursB.only swim between 6am and 7pmC. have a bath at 6am and 7pmD.swim with neck-to-knee costumes between 6am and 7pm 31．The last paragraph of the passage states that _____.A.people worry about getting skin cancer from too much sunB.people protect their ten-year-old sons from bare skinC.people are shocked by the sunD.people think it rude to swim with the smaller costumesDChina, known as the “kingdom of bicycle”, will see a quick growth in electric bicycle production in the next five years thanks to the country’s effort s to save energy and improve the environment.The output of electric bikes is expected to maintain an annual growth rate of at least 80 percent in the coming five years. China will churn out 30 million electricity-driven bikes in 2010, compared to 9 million bikes last year, according to a report from the Development Research Center under the State Council and other ministries such as the National Development and Reform Commission.The central government wants to reduce the amount of energy consumption (消耗) by as much as 20 percent within the next five years. That would be achieved through the introduction of new sources of energy and encouraging people to save energy, China Daily reported.The smoke from car exhausts (尾气) is a major cause of pollution darkening the sky in Chinese cities, especially Beijing. Industrial experts on Monday, called on the government to come up with more preferential (优先的) measures to spread the use of electric bikes in China.Electric bike production in China accounts for about 90 percent of the world’s total, making China the world’s biggest producer, consumer and exporter of the energy-efficient vehicle, the report indicated. The country last year sold about 3 million electric bikes to foreign countries, a figure expected to double to 6 million in five years. By 2010, the production value of the electric bike industry in China is expected to be 70 billion Yuan (8.6 billion US dollars), almost four times the current level.32. Why will there be a quick growth in electric bicycle production in the next five years in China?A. Because electric bicycles can save the consumer more money.B. Because the central government encourages people to save energy.C. Because most people in China can’t afford cars.D. Because the Chinese government limits the development of bicycle production.33. The underlined phrase “churn out” in the second paragraph has the same meaning as “_____”.A. makeB. sellC. designD. export34. According to the report, ________.A. China will produce 9 million electricity-driven bikes in 2010B. the central government of China wants to increase the amount of energy consumptionC. China is the world’s second biggest producer, consumer and exporter of the energy-efficient vehicleD. the output of electric bikes is expected to increase at least 80 percent in the coming five years35. What is the best title for the passage?A. How to make electric bicyclesB. The world’s biggest producer of electric bicyclesC. China’s q uick growth in electric bicycleD.

高二英语寒假作业（七）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。
并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．ARobert Spring, a 19th century forger (伪造者), was so good at his profession that hs was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans. Spring was born in England in 1838 and arrived in Philadelphia in 1858 to open a bookstore. At first he prospered(繁荣)by selling his small but genuine collection of early US autographs (亲笔签名). Discovering his ability at copying handwriting he began imitating the signatures of George Washington and Benjimin Franklin and writing them on the title pages of old books. To lessen the chance of detection (被发现). He sent his forgeries to England and Canada for sale, Forgers have a hard time selling products. A forger cannot approach a respectable buyer but must deal with people who don’t have much knowledge in the field. Forgers have many ways of making their works look real. For example, they buy old books and use the aged paper of the title page, and they can treat paper and ink with chemicals.In Spring’s time, right after the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the southern states, so Spring invented a respectable young lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General “Stonewall” Jackson. For several years Miss Fanny’s financial problems forced her to sell a great number of letters and manuscripts (手稿) belonging to her famous father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand. However, all this activity did not prevent Spring from dying in poverty, leaving sharp-eyed experts the difficult task of separating his forgeries from the originals. 1．Robert Spring spent 15 years ________.A．running a bookstore in Philadelphia B．as owners of old books C．selling real signatures of famous Americans D．as a forger2．Why did Spring sell his false autographs in England and Canada?A．There was less chance that his forgeries would be discovered there.B．The prices were much higher in England and Canada.C．There was a greater demand there than in America.D．Britan was Spring’s birthplace.3．After the Civil War there was a great demand in Britain for ________ A．Civil War battle plansB．southern manuscripts and lettersC．the signatures of George Washington and Ben FranklinD．southern moneyBAdvertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why they’re always coming in for criticism. Their critics seem to resent them because they have a gift for self-promotion and because they have so much money to throw around. “ It’s unfair,” they say, “ that this entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each year. It only goes to show how much profit the big companies are making. Why don’t they stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, it’s the consumer who pays.”The poor old consumer! He’d have to pay a great deal more if advertising didn’t create mass markets for products. It is precisely because of the heavy advertising that consumer goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea that the only purpose of advertising is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the knowledge we have about household goods comes largely from the advertisements we read.Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more likely that you would obtain details about performance, price, etc., from an advertisement.Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading only closely-printed columns of news in your daily paper? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a dull wall or a newspaper full of the daily amount of great disasters.We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. Newspapers, commercial radio and television companies could not survive without this source of income. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy so many broadcast programs is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!Another thing we mustn’t forget is the “small ads”, which are virtually in every newspaper and magazine. What a tremendously useful service they perform for the community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns! For instance, you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to be called the “hatch, match and dispatch” column but so far the most fascinating section is the personal or “agony” column. No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining reading or offers such a deep insight into human nature. It’s the best advertisement for advertising there is.1. What is the main idea of the text?A. Advertisements create mass markets for all products.B. Advertisers perform a useful service to communities.C. The criticisms for advertisements.D. Advertisements are fun to read.2. The attitude of the author towards advertisers is ________.A. trustfulB. appreciativeC. criticalD. dissatisfactory3. In what way does the writer try to support his view?A. Comparison.B. Description.C. Narration.D. Definition.4. Which of the following is most likely to appear in the “personal column”?A. An announcement of marriage.B. An advertisement of a laptop.C. A letter from a reader about his experience.D. A review of a film.CCar companies are developing vehicles that will plug into electric sockets，just like many laptops，digital cameras，cell phones and Mp4 do．Called“plug-in vehicles”，these cars will get most of their power from electricity. Their drivers won't have to stop at gas stations as often as usual．The technology is more than just cool. In our car-filled world，plug-in vehicles could reduce the amount of gas we use，which keeps rising in cost now and then. Besides，driving around in these vehicles may even help the environment．Gas-burning cars produce a lot of greenhouse gas，which causes globe warming.The first company-produced plug-in vehicles could hit the roads by 2010. But engineers still have a lot of work to do to make the technology practical and inexpensive．Batteries(电池) are the biggest challenge. In the plug-in-vehicle world，Li-ion(锂离子)batteries are getting the most attention．These batteries can store a large amount of energy in a small package，and they last a longer time between charges．Li-ion batteries can fit laptops，cell phones，heart instruments and other similar pocket ones.But because cars are so big and heavy, it would still require a suitcase-sized Li-ion batteries to power about 12km of driving．What's more，the batteries are much expensive．“A car filled with batteries could go a long distance，”says T ed Bohn, an electrical engineer in Chicago．“But it couldn't pull any people．and it would cost $100,000．”So researchers need to work out how to make batteries smaller and cheaper，among other questions.“The answers don't exist yet，”Bohn says，“As a kid，I thought someone someplace knows the answer to everything．All of these questions haven't been decided．That's what engineering is about-making a guess，running tests and getting fine results．”1．The passage mainly talks about of a new carA．the developing B．the speed C．the appearance D．the batteries 2．Which is true according to the passage?A．The“plug-in vehicles”will use electricity completely as driving power．B．The new technology will help protect our environment．C．The technology of using electricity as driving is quite practical now．D．The biggest challenge of the new technology is that it will cost us more energy．3．How does Bohn feel about the future of the technology according to the last paragraph?A．Confident B．Puzzled．C．Worried．D．Disappointed．4．According to the passage，the new technology is facing the following problems except that ．A．the new technology cannot come into use at presentB．the cost of the new technology is quite highC．the government won't support the technologyD．the size of the batteries is too big at presentDMany facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime (消遣), it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.1. According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?A. Those who often watch television.B. Those who often take exercise.C. Those who often have meals at home.D. Those who often walk to school.2. The word “steering” underlined in the last sentence most probably means ________.A. forcingB. drivingC. guidingD. moving3. The main purpose of the text is to ________.A. tell a storyB. provide factsC. compare opinionsD. give advice4. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. How many children get overweight.B. What is healthy eating.C. Why children get overweight.D. How to prevent children from getting overweight.第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）【题文】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。
高三英语寒假作业（七）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。
并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．ASome people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know?Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbooks (平装本), which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia (百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books., science textbook, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets.1. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. TV programs are a chief provider of knowledgeB. cinemas are the best choice in getting informationC. reading is a cheap way of learning and having funD. newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself2. What does the sentences “Television has not killed reading, however ” underlined in the second paragraph suggest?A. People only need reading, though.B. Reading is still necessary today.C. Reading is more fun than television.D. Watching television doesn‟t help reading.4. What can we learn from the passage?A. Fewer and fewer people will buy books.B. A good dictionary should be kept in every home.C. Books with hard covers sell better than paperbooks.D. More people like TV programs about famous men.BDomestic (驯养的) horses now pull ploughs, race in the Kentucky Derby, and carry police. But early horses weren‟t tame (驯服的) enough to perform these kinds of tasks. Scientists think the first interactions humans had with horses were far different from those today.Thousands of years ago, people killed the wild horses that lived around them for food. Over time, people began to catch the animals and raise them. This was the first step in domestication.As people began to tame and ride horses, they chose to keep those animals that had more desirable characteristics. For example, people may have chosen to keep horses that had a gentle personality so they could be ridden more easily. People who used horses to pull heavy loads would have chosen to keep stronger animals. Characteristics like strength are partly controlled by the animals‟ genes. So as the domesticated horses reproduced, they passed the characteristics on to their young. Each new generation of houses would show more of these chosen characteristics.Modern day horse breeds come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. This variety didn‟t exist in the horse population before domestication. The Shetland horse is one of the smallest breeds—typically reaching only one meter tall. With short, strong legs, the animals were bred to pull coal out of mine shafts (矿井) with low ceilings. Huge horses like the Clydesdale came on the scene around 1700. People bred these heavy, tall horses to pull large vehicles used for carrying heavy loads.The domestication of horses has had great effects on societies. For example, horse were important tools in the advancement of modern agriculture. Using them to pull ploughs and carry heavy loads allowed people to farm more efficiently. Before they were able to ride horses, humans had to cross land on foot. Riding horses allowed people to travel far greater distance in much less time. That encouraged populations living in different areas to interact with one another. The new from of rapid transportation helped cultures spread around the world1. Before domestication horses were ______.A. caught for sportsB. hunted for foodC. made to pull ploughsD. used to carry people2. The author uses the Shetland horse as an example to show ______.A. it is smaller than the Clydesdale horseB. horse used to have gentle personalitiesC. some horses have better shaped than othersD. horses were of less variety before domestication3. Horses contributed to the spread of culture by ______.A. carrying heavy loadsB. changing farming methodsC. serving as a means of transportD. advancing agriculture in different areas4. The passage is mainly about _______.A. why humans domesticated horsesB. how humans and horses needed each otherC. why horses came in different shapes and sizesD. how human societies and horses influenced each otherCA new study has found no evidence that sunscreen, commonly used to reduce the risk of skin caner, actually increases the risk.Researchers from the University of lows based their firdings on a review of 18 earlier studies that looked at the associstion between sunscreen use and melanoms(黑素瘤). They said that they found flaws in studies that had reported associations between sunscreen use and higher risk of melanoma.Most health experts believe that by protecting the skin from the harmful effects of the sun, sunscreen helpsprevent skin cancer, which is increasing in incidence (发生率) faster than any other cancer in the United States.But questions have been raised about sunscreen and whether it may have the opposite effect, perhaps by allowing people to remain exposed to the sun longer without burning.The researchers said that among the problems with some earlier studies is that they often failed to take into account that those people most at risk for skin concer—people with fair skin and freckles （雀斑）,for example—are more likely to use sunscreen. As a result, it may appear that sunscreen users get cancer more often.The studies, which generally relied on volunteers to recall their sunscreen use, were also unable to prove how well the products had been applied, said the new study.1. The underlined word “flaws” in the 2nd paragraph most probably means .A.evidencesB.factsC.faultsD.failures2. People with fair skin and freckles .A.seldom use sunscreenB. are more in danger of skin concerC. can be free from the harm of the sunD. often expose themselves to the sun3. We can learn from the passage that .A. sunscreen users get skin cancer more oftenB. the volunteers have proved the effect of sunscreenC. the new study was based on the experiences of volunteersD. the number of skin cancer patients is increasing in America4. Which of the following can be the beat title for this passage?A. Sunscreen to Prevent Skin CancerB. Sunscreen to Increase Skin CancerC. Skin Cancer Caused by SunscreenD. Skin Cancer Caused by FrecklesDDespite the fact that it has never been seen almost everyone is familiar with the legendary unicorn(独角兽). Descriptions of unicorns have been found dating from ancient times. The great philosopher Aristotle theorized that there were two types of unicorn--- the so-called Indian Ass and the Oryx, a kind of antelope.Unicorns are often used in the logo of a noble family, town council or university as their special sign. EvenScotland is represented by a unicorn.According to the legend, anyone attempting to catch a unicorn had to be extremely cautious as it has a reputation for being very fierce. A clever trick suggested by unicorn-trappers, in order to catch this magnificent beast without being hurt by its horn, was for the hunter to stand in front of a tree and then to move quickly behind it as the unicorn charged. Hopefully, the creature could then be captured when its horn was stuck in the tree.When hollowed out and used as a drinking-cup, the unicorn‟s horn was said to have the power to offer protection against person. It was believed that nobody could be harmed-by drinking the contents of a uni corn‟s horn. Right up until the French Revolution in 1789, the French court was said to have used cups made of “unicorn” horn in order to protect the king. In addition, the horn was said to have medicinal value, so much so that it could be sold for more than ten times the price of the same weight of gold. What, then, was “unicorn” horn? We know at times the rhino(犀牛) was confused with this legendary creature. A drinking-cup supposedly made of “unicorn” horn was discovered to be made of the horn of a rhino.1. Which of the following is TRUE of the unicorn?A. It was not historically recordedB. Its horn was first used in FranceC. It was similar to the Indian Ass and the OryxD. It could be the symbol of a university2. To catch a unicorn, the unicorn-trappers had to try all of the following EXCEPT ____.A. tempting the unicorn to attackB. making use of the tree as a protectionC. hiding quickly behind the unicornD. having the unicorn horn stuck in the tree3. The last paragraph is mainly about ____.A. the properties of the unicorn hornB. the users of the unicorn hornC. the price of the unicorn hornD. the comparison between the unicorn horn and the rhino horn4. In the last paragrap h, the word “unicorn ” is in quotation marks (引号)because _____.A. the cup is designed only for a royal familyB. the unicorn does not exist in realityC. the unicorn is the rarest animal in the worldD. the medicinal value of the horn is appreciated第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）【题文】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 kids are udner great need of vitamins for growth. As they use their energy in playing, they need lots of vitamins.Children usually choose certain foods above the others and often do not eat those with important nutrients(营养). Sothough the food they are eating is nutritious, it may not always provide all the nutrients the child needs.One nutrient can not balance the shortage(缺乏) of another. Foods like grains, vegetables, fruits and meats should be eaten daily, because different foods in the child’s diet can balance against taking too much or too little of any nutrient.Kids grow slower in their childhood than when they were babies or when they develop into adults. Energy output is high, with hard paly perids that include plenty of running, jumping, and testing of new physical skills. So they need a lot of vitamins.Here are some important vitamins and their functionsVitamin D in milk helps your bones.Vitamin A in carrots helps you see at night.Vitamin C in oranges helps your body heal if you get a cut.B vitamins in leafy vegetables helps your body make protein(蛋白质).The children, who are suffering from a sickness called cystic fibrosis, lose vitamin A, D and E. These are main body-building vitamins. Therefore, vitamin supplements(添补剂) may be necessary. Blood tests will telll you whether a child needs vitamin supplements.If babies over nine months of age are receiving whole cow’s milk, they’ll need a daily vitamin C supplement till their diet provide enough vitamin C.Vitamin D is added to all milks so babies drinking them need no extra vitamin D.Children are greatly in need of vitamin C. If you are 18 years of age or younger, you should get 115 millgrams of vitamin C per day. Those over 19 should get 120 milligrams per day.1. We can learn from the passage that _______.A. it is necessary for kids to eat different foods for all nutrientsB. it is necessary for one to exercise if he needs more vitaminsC. is it unnecesssay for babies to take a vitamin D supplementD. it is unnecessary for elderly people to take in any vitamins.2. When do kids have to take a vitamin supplement?A. When they are not full of energy.B. When they eat only some foods.C. When they suffer from various illnessesD. When they don’t have normal food.3. What is it expecially necessary for high school students to have daily?A. . MilkB. Orange.C. Carrots.D. Vegetables.4. The proper title for the passage is _______.A. Diets of all nutrientsB. Vitamins for childrenC. Balance of daily dietsD. Functions of vitaminsCThe Taxi & Limousine Committee agreed Wednesday to carry out a 30-cent extra charge on every city taxi fare —part of a historic plan to make half the city’s yellow cabs wheelchair-accessible.The 30-cent extra charge will be assessed starting next January on all metered(用仪表计量的)yellow and green cab fares. The money will be put in a fund to help yellow cab owners make their vehicles wheelchair-accessible.Only about 400 of the more than 13,000 yellow cabs now on city streets can accommodate wheelchairs. Hopefully, that number will rise to more than 7,500 by 2020.Mayor de Blasio in the city Washington proposed the 30-cent charge to support the upgrades.Consequently, disabled New Yorkers said the addition of more accessible cabs would be life-changing.“We can’t go anywhere more conveniently,” said Jean Ryan of Brooklyn, who uses a wheelchair.For the birth of her grandson, she had to wheel a mile and a half in a snowstorm to get to the hospital, she said.Ronnie Raymond of Manhattan wept as she described spen ding “hours trying to get somewhere that takes everybody else 20 minutes.”Some supporters for the disabled said more was needed to be done.“I dream of a world where it’s 100% accessible and we have cabs just like anyone else,” said Jason DaSilva, a Brook lyn filmmaker who suffers from multiple sclerosis and uses a wheelchair.It’s particularly important because the city’s subway system is absolutely inaccessible to wheelchair riders.Some other cities, including London, with its famous black cabs, require that all its taxis be fully accessible.Some citizens expressed sympathy for the wheelchair-using riders, many of whom carried neon signs(霓虹灯招牌) that read “Taxi” next to a wheelchair symbol.“The goal of this committee should be 100% accessibility — and I hope sooner rather than later,” said Frank Carone from the Taxi & Limousine Committee.1. For what purpose will a 30-cent extra charge be applied on every city taxi fare?A. To found a Taxi & Limousine Committee on Wednesday.B. To encourage the locals to use wheelchairs properly.C. To help the disabled with wheelchairs take a taxi conveniently.D. To attract more tourists to use wheelchairs to get around.2. Who was Jean Ryan in the passage?A. Mayor of Washington.B. A wheelchair user.C. A cab driver.D. A taxi owner3. What is “sclerosis” in Paragraph 10 according to the passage?A. The name of a vehicle.B. The name of a filmmaker.C. The name of a sort of wheelchairsD. The name of a disease.4. It can be safely inferred from the passage that ________.A. The 30-cent extra charge on every city taxi fare is already quite popular.B. About 1300 yellow cabs now on city streets are accommodating wheelchairs.C. Wheelchair riders are absolutely content with the city’s subw ay system.D. There is a long way to go before the plan can be applied successfully.DOffering a powerful new tool against terrorism, researchers have found a way to detect lies in the liar’s blushing(脸红) face. The technique, described in the journal (期刊) Nature, uses a thermal camera (热感照相机) to detect the sudden shift of blood flow in the face. The system performed as a traditional polygraph (测谎仪), the scientists report.Pushed by technological advances and with fresh interest since Sept.11, the discovery is part of the development in the scientific study of detection. Although the lie remains a mysterious phenomenon, researchers in recent years have found a number of new methods that might take the place of the polygraph, from brain scans, to slight changes in eye movement, to sparks of electrical activity that signal a person has seen a victim or a crime scene before. The new finding says, when a person tells a lie, there is a sudden change of blood to the area around the eyes. Although the change is not ordinary visible, the blood warms the skin, causing bands of color to appear through a camera sensitive to heat.One advantage of the camera can provide answers quickly, and doesn’t require a highly trained expert to operate it or explain its results. In theory, this new technology could be used anywhere large numbers of people need to be quickly screened.But some scientists say the technology would need to be improved before it is ready for use, for it is possible that there are other reactions that cause a sudden change in blood flow in the face and there is also the danger that people will learn to fool the machine, the same way they try to fool polygraph examiners by controlling their breathing or taking drugs to relax themselves.1. Compared with a traditional polygraph, the new tool’s progress lies in the fact that_______.A. it is moveableB. it is easier to operateC. it gives correct conclusionD. it can only be used in public places.2. Different from the other tried ways, this new technology studies ______ to detectlies.A. brain wavesB. eye movementsC. electrical sparksD. change in facial blood flow3. We can infer that _________ inspires the finding of the new way of detection.A. the need of personal securityB. the data collected in the tried waysC. the threaten from terrorismD. the desire for public use4. It is NOT true that this new technology _________.A. is incomparable as a result of perfect development and necessary restsB. is likely to be used widely to screen large number of peopleC. faces the danger of being fooled by experienced and drug-taking liarsD. needs to be improved before being put into use第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）【题文】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。

A. world B. feeling C. possession D. love35. A. expensive B. precious C. comfortable D. interestingASocial customs differ from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn’t it matter? What about table manners? Should you use both hands when you are eating? Should you leave one in your lap, or on the table?The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a doorfor a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness is important both in England and in America. That is, if a dinner invitation is for 7 o’clock, the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay.The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable –especially if they are your guests. There is an old story about a man who gave a formal dinner party. When the food was served, oneof the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.36. If one has accepted a dinner invitation, what should he do if he is to be late for the dinner?A. He should find an excuse.B. He should ask for excuse.C. He should say “Sorry”.D.

Even though global warming may have made our climate, more mild, many animals are still hibernating(冬眠). It’s too bad that humans can’t hibernate. In fact, as a species, we almost did.Apparently, at times in the past, peasants in France liked a semi-state of human hibernation. So writes Graham Robb, a British scholar who has studied the sleeping habits of the French peasants. As soon as the weather turned cold, people all over the France shut themselves away and practiced the forgotten art of doing nothing at all for months on end. In line with this, Jeff Warren, a producer at CBC Radio’s The Current, tells us that the way we sleep has changed fundamentally since the invention of artificial lighting and the electric bulb.When historians began studying texts of the Middle Ages, they noticed something referred to as “first sleep”, which was not clarified, though. Now scientists are telling us our ancestors most likely slept in separate periods. The business of eight hours’ uninterrupted sleep is a modem invention.In the past, without the artificial light of the city to bathe in, humans went to sleep when it became dark and then woke themselves around midnight. The late night period was known as “The Watch”. It was when p eople actually kept watch against wild animals, although many of them simply moved around or visited family and neighbors.According to some sleep researchers, a short of insomnia（失眠）at midnight is not a disorder. It is normal. Humans can experience another state of consciousness around their sleeping, which occurs in the brief period before we fall asleep or wake ourselves in the morning. This period can be an extraordinarily creative time for some people. The impressive inventor, Thomas Edison, used this state to hit upon many of his new ideas.Playing with your sleep rhythms can be adventurous, as anxiety may set in. Medical science doesn’t help much in this case. It offers us medicines for a full night’s continuous sleep, which sounds natural; how ever, according to Warren’s theory, it is really the opposite of what we need.40. The example of the French peasants shows the factthat .A. people might become lazy as a result of too much sleepB. there were signs of hibernation in human sleeping habitsC. people tended to sleep more. Peacefully in cold weatherD. winter was a season for people to sleep for months on end [ ]41. What does the author advise people to do?A. Sleep in the way animals do.B. Consult a doctor if they can’t sleep.C. Follow their natural sleep rhythm.D. Keep to the eight-hour sleep pattern.42. The late night was called “The Watch” because it was a time for people .A. to set traps to catch animalsB. to wake up their family and neighborsC. to remind others of the timeD. to guard against possible dangers43. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To give a prescription for insomniaB. To urge people to sleep less.C. To analyze the sleep pattern of modern peopleD. To throw new light on human sleep.CI entered high school having read hundreds of books. But I was not a good reader. Merely（仅仅地） bookish, I lacked a point of view when I read. Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, ideas, themes—anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a “complicated idea” until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing either its irony (嘲讽) orits very complicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times. (How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be a book?) w*w*There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the “hundred most important books of Western Civilization.” “More than anything else in my life,” the professor told the reporter with finality , “these books have made me all that I am.” That was the kind of words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato's The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition () of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text. And by the time I reached the last word, pleased, I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic, and seriously crossed Platooff my list44. On heating the teacher's suggestion of reading, the writer thought __ _____.A. one must read as many books as possibleB. a student should not have a complicated ideaC. it was impossible for one to read two thousand booksD. students ought to make a list of the books they had read45. The underlined phrase “with finality” probably means ___ ____.A. firmlyB. clearlyC. proudlyD. pleasantly46. The writer's purpose in mentioning The Republic is to ___ ____.A. explain why it was included in the listB. describe why he seriously crossed it off the listC. show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understandD. prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every wordDWhen Russell Lyons volunteered for the first time, he read Goodnight Moon to a class of San Diego preschoolers. And it wasn’t reading－he’d memorized the book and was reciting it out loud. He was 4. Still, he said it felt good up there, in front of the other kids, lending a hand. He wanted more of that feeling.The University City resident has spent time at an animal reserve in Utah, a women’s shelter in St. Louis, a soup kitchen in New York, a retir ement home in Tucson. This week he’s in Los Angeles, at a program that supports disabled youth.“I just like helping people and feeling that something I do is making a difference,” he said. He resists the idea that his “Do Good Adventure” is all that unusu al. It bothers him that the media often describes young people as lazy, self-centered and materialistic. So he sees his trip as a chance to make a statement, too. “About 55 percent of teens do volunteer work, higher than the rate of adults,” he said, according to a 2002 study. “Not everybody knows that.”Of course, some teens do volunteer work because it looks impressive on their college applications. Lyons said he mentioned his trip on his submissions. But charity work is a habit with him. Even before the cross country trip, he was volunteering abut 200 hours a year at various places. He’s made sandwiches for homelessfamilies in Washington D.C.. He’s taught math to fifth-graders in Cuernavaca, Mexico.He gets some of that drive from his mother, Leslye Lyons, who has been involved in nonprofits for much of her life. She was there when her son “read” to the preschoolers－a memory of hers “that will never go away.”47. What did Russell Lyons think of his first volunteering?A. Creative.B. Impressive.C.Persuasive.D. Imaginative.48A. indicate Russell Lyons is working as a volunteerB. introduce some tourist attractions across AmericaC. appeal to volunteers to offer help to those in needD. show volunteers are needed in all parts of America49. According to Paragraph 4, Russell Lyons is against the idea that ______.A. what he has done is commonB. most teens do volunteer workC. young people don’t work hardD. adults prefer to be volunteers50. Russell Lyons has been doing volunteer work because ______.A. it is necessary for college applicationsB. he ought to keep his promise to MomitC. he likes the feeling of being praisedD. has become a natural part of his life__51___ People use money to buy food, furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of other things they need or want． When they work, they usually get paid in money．Most of the money today is made of metal or paper．____52__ One of the first kinds of money was shells．Shells were not the only things used as money．In China, cloth and knives were used． In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money for a long time．Elephant tusks, monkey tails and salt were used as money in parts of Africa．The first metal coins were made in China．They were round and had a square hole in the centre． _____53_____Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money．___54___ Sweden and Russia used copper （铜） to maketheir money． Later some countries began to make coins of gold and silver．But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive． Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money． _____55___ The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than the paper money used today．Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today．A．The first coins in England were made of tin （锡）．B．But people used to use all kinds of things as money．C．No one knows for certain when people began to use money．D．People strung （串连） them together and carried them from place to place．E．Money, as we know, is all made of paper．F．They began to use paper money．G．Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods andservices．Mrs Smith was walking near a playground.

信息匹配46~50 CAEFD基础写作One possible version:On December 24, more than 2,000 students and teachers of our school, including 5 foreign teachers, participated in the English Culture Festival and Christmas Carnival on the school playground. The celebration lasted from 3 pmtill 5:30 pm, and on the scene, we could find over 30 tents were put up, whichformed a Global Village. In the Village were built over 20 exhibition halls representing different countries such as US and UK. All the participants were wearing foreign costumes, singing foreign songs and selling a range of souvenirs as well as traditional food. At 4:30, a great Christmas performance was put on, which offered a great opportunity to display our talents and let us achieve a better understanding of western cultures and customs.读写任务One possible version:This passage lists some of the causes for the decline of Chinese students health and discusses one possible solution to the problem—including P.E. in the Gaokao.In my opinion, it s unreasonable to include P.E. in the Gaokao. While students may spend more time doing physical exercise to prepare for the test,this doesn t mean they will improve their health. On the contrary, additional test pressure and excessive exercise may make their health worse. Moreover, it s unfair to students born with health problems and to those not gifted in sports.It is often said that “a healthy mind needs a healthy body.” With good health, you have enough energy to perform at your best. I think the core issue is how to get students healthier. Besides a test, I think schools should do things such as stopping selling the soft drinks and junk food, as well as giving students less homework and more time for outdoor activities.选修6(一)完形填空一把小提琴的美妙音乐理应被世人欣赏,同样,我们的生活也要过得有意义。
