第二部分阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
The practice of magic includes special words, actions, and objects. Most magic involves a person called a magician, who claims to have supernatural powers.
Magic words. To work most magic, the magician sings or speaks special words in a certain order. These words are called incantations or spells. Some spells form prayers to demons(魔鬼), spirits, or other supernatural forces. Many societies believe the magic will not work unless the magician recites the spells perfectly. Other magic words have no meaning, though they supposedly possess power when spoken by a magician.
Magic actions accompany the words spoken in performing much magic. Many of these movements act out the desired effect of the magic. For example, a magician trying to make rain fall may sprinkle(洒) water on the ground. The magician's combined words and actions form a ceremony.
Magic objects include certain plants, stones, and other things with supposed supernatural powers. Any such object may be called a fetish(物神). But this term often refers to an object—for example, a carving or a dried snake—honored by a tribe for its magic powers. Many tribes believe fetishes have magic power because spirits live in these objects.
Many people carry magic objects called amulets(护身符)to protect themselves from harm. Many amulets are stones or rings engraved(雕刻) with magic symbols.
The magician. In some societies, nearly everyone knows how to work some magic. In other societies, only experts practice magic. Magicians may be called medicine men, medicine women, shamans, sorcerers, or witch doctors. In many societies, magic ians must inherit their powers. In others, any person may become a magician by studying the magical arts.
Many societies believe magic ians must observe certain rules and taboos (forbidden actions) for their spells to work. For example, they may be required not to eat various foods or to avoid sexual activity for a certain period before the ceremony.
36．What do magic words mean to people in some society?
A．They have the power to kill devils.
B．They have power if magician recites the right spells.
C．They have no effect at all.
D．They can be used whenever they want.
37．People believe magic actions will have an effect if they are accompanied by________.
A．the spells
B．magic objects
C．stones or rings engraved with magic symbols
D．medicine
38.Why do many people believe in a fetish?
A．Because it is often a ring which is worth a lot of money.
B．Because it is carved with magic symbols.
C．Because people think spirits live in it.
D．Because it can help them with many things.
39．What's the best title of the passage?
A．How Magic Works
B．The Power of Magic
C．How to Practice Magic
D．The Choice of Magicians
B
Every culture has a recognized point when a child becomes an adult, when rules must be followed and tests passed.
In China, although teenagers can get their ID cards at 16, many only see themselves as an adult when they are 18. In the US, where everyone drives, the main step to the freedom of adult life is learning to drive. At 16, American teens take their driving test. When they have their license, they drive into the grown-up world.
“Nobody wants to ride the cheese bus to school，” said Eleanor Fulham, 17. She brought the pressure back to memory, especially for kids from wealthier families. “It's like you're not cool if you don't have a car，” she said.
According to recent research, 41% of 16 to 19-year-olds in the US own cars, up from 23% in 1985. Although, most of these cars are bought by parents, some teens get part-time jobs to help pay.
Not all families can afford cars for their children. In cities with subways and limited parking, some teenagers don't want them. But in rich suburban areas without subways, and where bicycles are more for fun than transportation, it is strange for a teenager not to have a car.
But police say 16-year-olds have almost three times more accidents than 18 to 19-year-olds. This has made many parents pause before letting their kids drive.
Julie Sussman, of V irginia, decided that her son Chad, 15, will wait until he is 17 to apply for his learner's permit.
Chad said he has accepted his parents' decision, although it has caused some teasing from his friends. “They say that I am unlucky，”he said, “But I'd rather be alive than driving, and I_don't_really_trust_my_friends_on_the_road,_either.”
In China as more families get cars, more 18-year-olds learn to drive. Will this become a big step to becoming an adult?
40．Which may serve as the best title of the article?
A．Cars Helping Y ou to Grow-Up
B．Driving into the Grown-Up World
C．Teenagers' Driving in America
D．Recognized Point of Becoming an Adult
41．16-year-old drivers have more accidents possibly because________.
A．they want to show themselves off
B．they are never experienced drivers
C．older people always drive better
D．they never drive carefully on the road
42．Which may NOT be taken into consideration when deciding whether to buy a car?
A．How well off the family is.
B．Whether the kid is old enough.
C．What traffic condition there is around.
D．Whether it's practically needed.
43．When Chad said “I don't really trust my friends…”，he meant that________.
A．he might run into his friends if he drove
B．he didn't agree with his friends
C．he might not be safe if his friends drove
D．he was afraid that his friends might well lie to him
C
I'm usually fairly skeptical about any research that concludes that people are either happier or unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago. While any of these statements might be true, they are practically impossible to prove scientifically. Still, I was struck by a report which concluded that today's children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s. In fact, the analysis showed, normal children aged 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for mental illness 50 years ago.
Why are America's kids so stressed? The report cites two main causes: increasing physical isolation(隔离) brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement in community, among other things and a growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place.
Considering that we_can't_turn_the_clock_back,_adults can still do plenty to help the next generation.
At the top of the list is nurturing(培育) a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. No child is an island. Strengthening social ties helps build communities and protect individuals against stress.
To help kids build stronger connections with others, you can pull the plug on TVs and computers. Y our family will thank you later. They will have more time for face-to-face relationships, and they will get more sleep.
Limit the amount of virtual(虚拟的) violence your children are exposed to. It's not just video games and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news.
Keep your expectations for your children reasonable. Many highly successful people never attended Harvard or Y ale.
Make exercise part of your daily routine. It will help you cope with your own anxieties and provide a good model for your kids. Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable. But it doesn't have to ruin your life.
44．According to the analysis, compared with normal children today, children treated as mentally ill 50 years ago ________.
A．probably suffered less from anxiety
B．were considered less individualistic
C．were less isolated physically
D．were probably less self-centered
45．What does the author mean by saying “we can't turn the clock back”in the third paragraph?
A．It's impossible to forget the past.
B．The social reality children are facing cannot be forgotten.
C．It's impossible to slow down the pace of change.
D．Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten.
46．The author thinks that the conclusions of any research about people's state of mind are ________.
A．illogical B．confusing
C．surprising D．questionable
47．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．To children, anxiety is completely avoidable.
B．TV and computer play an important role in isolating children from the real world.
C．Exercise does not help to lessen children's anxiety.
D．Sometimes local news about crime and murder also affects children a little.
D
Japanese high school students either walk or ride bicycles if the distance is not too great. In other cases, students must take public buses and trains. After junior high school, students attend schools based on their high school entrance examination scores. So some students travel a great distance to attend the school.
◆________
The school day begins at 8：30. Then students assemble in their homeroom classes for the day's studies. Each homeroom has an average of 40—45 students. Students stay in their homeroom classrooms for most of the school day. Only for physical education, laboratory classes, or other subjects requiring special facilities(设备) do students move to different parts of the school. Between classes and at lunch-time, classrooms can be noisy, lively places. Some schools may have a cafeteria(自助餐厅), but most do not. In most schools, students bring a box lunch from home, prepared by the mother in the early morning hours.
Japanese students spend 240 days a year at school, 60 days more than American students. Students in high schools take three years' each of the following subjects mathematics, social studies, Japanese, science, and English. Other subjects include physical education, music, art, and moral(道德的) studies. All the students in one grade level study the same subjects. Given the number of required subjects, electives(选修科目) are few.
◆After-school Activities
Club activities take place after school every day. Students can join only one club, and they rarely change clubs from year to year, so the clubs are relatively stable. Clubs are made up of sports clubs(baseball, soccer, judo, kendo, etc.) and culture clubs(English, broadcasting, science, etc.). New students usually are encouraged to select a club shortly after the school year begins in
April. Clubs meet for two hours after school each day and many clubs continue to meet during school vacations.

51．The best subtitle for the second and third paragraphs may be “________”．

Some say everyday miracles(奇迹) are predestined(注定的)—the right time for the appointed meeting. And it can happen anywhere.
In 2001, 11-year-old Kevin Stephan was a bat boy for his younger brother's Little League Team in Lancaster, New Y ork. It was an early evening in late July. Kevin was standing on the grass away from the plate, where another youngster was warming up for the next game. Swinging his bat back and forth, giving it all the power an elementary school kid could give. The boy brought the bat back hard and hit Kevin in the chest. His heart stopped.
When Kevin fell to the ground, the mother of one of the players rushed out of the stands to his aid. Penny Brown hadn't planned to be there that day, but at the last minute, her shift(换班)at the hospital had been changed to see her son's performance. She was given the night off. Penny bent over the senseless boy, his face already starting to turn blue, and giving CPR(心肺复苏术), breathing into his mouth and giving chest compressions. And he revived in the end.
After his recovery, he became a volunteer junior firefighter, learning some of the emergency first-aid techniques that had saved his life. He studied hard in school and was saving money for college by working as a dishwasher in a local restaurant in his spare time.
Kevin, now 18, was working in the kitchen when he heard people screaming, customers in confusion, employees rushing toward a table. He hurried into the main room and saw a woman there, her face turning blue, her hands at her throat. She was choking.
Quickly Kevin stepped behind her, wrapped his arms around her and clasped his hands. Then, using skills he'd first learned in Scouts. The food that was trapped in the woman's throat was freed. The colour began to return to her face.
“The food was stuck. I couldn't breathe，” she said. She thought she was dying. “I was very frightened.”
Who was the woman?
Penny Brown.
52．The author wrote the passage to show us that________.
A．miracles are predestined and they can happen anywhere
B．whoever helps you in trouble will get a reward one day
C．God will help those who give others a helping hand
D．miracles won't come without any difficulty sometimes
53．Which of the following statements is TRUE of Kevin Stephan?
A．He was hit on the face by a boy and almost lost his life.
B．He was a volunteer junior firefighter, teaching the players first-aid skills.
C．He worked part-time in a local restaurant to save money for college.
D．He saved Penny Brown though he didn't really know how to deal with food choke.
54．The underlined word “revived” in the third paragraph most likely means________.
A．came back to life B．became worse
C．failed D．moved
55.When Kevin knew the woman was Penny Brown, probably he first felt________.
A．happy B．surprised C．sad D．worried
第三部分写作(共两节，满分35分)
第一节任务型读写(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
If your family is like many in the United States, unloading the week’s groceries includes hauling a case or two of bottled water into your home. On your way to a soccer game or activity, it’s easy to grab a cold one right out of the fridge, right?
But all those plastic bottles use a lot of fossil fuels and pollute the environment. In fact, Americans buy more bottled water than any other nation in the world, adding 29 billion water bottles a year to the problem. In order to make all these bottles, manufacturers use 17 million barrels of crude oil. That’s enough oil to keep a million cars going for twelve months.
Imagine a water bottle filled a quarter of the way up with oil. That’s about how much oil was needed to produce the bottle.
So why don’t more people drink water straight from the kitchen faucet? Some people drink bottled water because they think it is better for them than water out of the tap, but that’s not true. In the United States, local governments make sure water from the faucet is safe. There is also growing concern that chemicals in the bottles themselves may leach(过滤) into the water.
People love the convenience of bottled water. But maybe if they realized the problems it causes, they would try drinking from a glass at home or carrying water in a refillable steel container instead of plastic.
Plastic bottle recycling can help—instead of going out with the trash, plastic bottles can be turned into items like carpeting or cozy fleece clothing.
Unfortunately, for every six water bottles we use, only one makes it to the recycling bin. The rest are sent to landfills. Or, even worse, they end up as trash on the land and in rivers, lakes, and the ocean. Plastic bottles take many hundreds of years to disintegrate.
Water is good for you, so keep drinking it. But think about how often you use water bottles, and see if you can make a change.
Betty McLaughlin, who runs an organization called the Container Recycling Institute, says we should try using fewer bottles: “If you take one to school in your lunch, don’t throw it away—bring it home and refill it from the tap for the next day. Keep track of how many times you refill a bottle before you recycle it.”
And yes, you can make a difference. Remember this: Recycling one plastic bottle can save enough energy to power a 60-watt light bulb for six hours.

35．B由后文的“He took some more bags several days later…”可知几天后又多带了几袋大米，可知他的大米卖得快(quickly)，故选B项。其余三项不合语境。
第二部分
A
36．B细节理解题。根据第二段“Many societies believe the magic will not work unless the magician recites the spells perfectly.”可知，很多社会认为只要巫师正确念咒语，巫术就会起作用。
37．A细节理解题。联系第三段“Magic actions accompany the words spoken in performing much magic”可知，巫术的活动要伴随着语言，而这些语言又叫做咒语。
38．C细节理解题。从第四段“Many tribes believe fetishes have magic power because spirits live in t hese objects.”可知，人们之所以相信物神，是因为他们觉得有精神在里面。
39．C主旨大意题。全文讲述了如何实施巫术，这一点从第一段可以看出来。
B
40．B主旨大意题。从第一段和第二段可知，文章的主要内容是通过让孩子学会开车，通过测试拿到驾照让他们明白自己是成年人了。
41．B推理判断题。从第六、七及第八段可推断选B项。
42．C细节理解题。在第五段中讲到了买车的理由，如交通是否便利、家庭开支是否允许等方面的原因，但没有提到交通条件方面的原因，故选C。
43．C句意理解题。由前面的句子“But I'd rather be alive than driving(让我在开车和活着之间作选择，我要活着)”可以看出，他对他的朋友们的驾驶技术很没有信心。
C
44．A细节理解题。根据第一段第三句“…today's children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s”可知答案。
45．B句意理解题。根据上下文可知，孩子们面临的社会现实问题无法淡忘。
46．D推理判断题。根据第一段的内容可知。
47．B推理判断题。根据第五段“To help kids build stronger connections with others, you can pull the plug on TVs and computers.”可知。
D
48．D推理判断题。题目问的是“大多数日本高中生经常在哪里吃午饭”。根据第二段中“In most schools, students bring a box lunch from home…”可知“大多数学校的学生的午饭是从家里带来的”，故排除A、C两项；再根据此句前面的“…at lunch-time, classrooms can be noisy, lively places.”可知“学生是在教室吃午饭的(午饭时教室很吵闹)”。
49．A细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Japanese students spend 240 days a year at school, 60 days more than American students.”可知，美国中学生一年上学的天数为180天。
50．C词义猜测题。根据后半句…so the clubs are relatively stable可知，rarely意为“很少”，与C项(不常，很少)意思一致。
51．A主旨大意题。根据第二、三段所涉及的内容(班级规模、在校吃午饭、上学天数、科目等)可知，该部分主要讲学生在校情况，故A项正确。同时正好与第一部分“上学”和最后一部分“课外活动”相承接。
E
52．A主旨大意题。文章第一段点明了本文的写作目的：奇迹是注定的，无处不在。下文具体讲述了两个人的互救经历以证明这一观点。
53．C细节理解题。由第四段中“He studied hard in school and was saving mon ey for college by working as a dishwasher in a local restaurant in his spare time”可知C项表述正确。
54．A词义猜测题。由本句前句中的“Penny bent over the senseless boy”和下一段的“After his recovery”可以推出revived的意思是“苏醒；醒了过来”，与senseless (昏迷，没有知觉)相对应。
55．B推理判断题。当Kevin知道Penny Brown正是七年前挽救他生命的那个人时，他的第一感觉应该是“惊讶，意想不到”；再结合本文的写作目的：奇迹无处不在，可以推出B项为正确答案。
第三部分
第一节
56．Present根据右栏内容可以推知是目前的形势。
57．most根据文章第二段中的“In fact, Americans buy more bottled water than any other
nation in the world”可以推知美国是世界上消费瓶装水最多的国家，故用most。

Dear_Peter，
I'm_glad_to_receive_your_letter_asking_for_my_advice_on_how_to_learn_Chinese_well.
Here are a few suggestions. First, it is important to take a Chinese course, as you'll be able to learn from the teacher and practice with your fellow students. Then, it also helps to watch TV and read books, newspapers and magazines in Chinese whenever possible.
Besides, it should be a good idea to learn and sing Chinese songs, because by doing so you'll learn and remember Chinese words more easily. Y ou can also make more Chinese friends. They will tell you a lot about China and help you learn Chinese.
Try and write to me in Chinese next time.
Best_wishes.

虎门中学高三周测英语试题1 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） A The small coastal town of Broome, in northwest Australia, is a remote village in the vast countryside. There are no traffic jams and hardly any roads. There is only the massive Australian wild land, where some houses are 500 miles apart and some driveways are 50 miles long. There seem to be only two main sources of entertainment out here: the sunset at the beach and Sun Pictures. Sun Pictures is a very different movie theater：The seats are park benches and deck chairs, but you’re also welcome to sit on the grass. It is the world’s oldest outdoor movie garden. Sun Pictures was built in 1916 on the other side of the globe from Hollywood. All the big films were shipped here and the lonely country was amazed. Broome resident Pearl Hamaguchi has never traveled far from home. But in the Sun Pictures chairs, under the deep blue night sky, she has been almost everywhere. “And we came back excited about Gregory Peck,” she recalled. This is one of the few places left in the world where you can see two sets of stars at the same time-----one set in the sky, the other in the film. Each night, dozens of people from around the world line up at the old wooden stand, with no computer in sight, and buy their tickets to the latest films. Sun Pictures is also a museum, exhibiting projectors(放映机) that date back to the silent films, a portrait gallery of the famous people who never knew about this place---- even though they came here all the time. Every once in a while, I’m told, you might find a non-ticket holder in your seat. That’s why it’s always a good idea to shake out your chair to make sure there are no spiders or scorpions. “We’ve only had a couple of scorpion incidents but no one’s been stung yet,” said Aaron Mestemaker, a tourist visiting from Michigan. Sun Pictures is a holy hall of movie history and a reminder that air conditioning and carpet are no match for grass and fresh air---even when the lizards steal the scene. 21. The first two paragraphs want to show that__________. A. living in Broome is inconvenient B. the life in Broome is boring C. few people like to live in Broome D. Broome is simple but vast 22. Sun Pictures is different from other theaters because _________. A. it is the most historical outdoor theater in the world B. the audience can either sit on chairs or on the grass C. it was built by some constructor from Hollywood D. all the films were imported here from Hollywood 23. Gregory Peck is most probably the name of_________. A. a place B. a film C. a movie star D. a country fellow

I’m walking on a path in the forest in the Central African Republic. Unexpectedly, I’m face-to-face with the gorilla, who begins screaming at 2 top of her lungs. That makes her baby scream, and then a 400-pound male appears. He screams the 3 (loud) of all. The noise shakes the trees as the male beats his chest and charges toward me. I quickly lower myself, ducking my head to avoid 4 (look) directly into his eyes so he doesn’t feel 5 (challenge). My name is Mireya Mayor. I’m a 6 (science) who studies animals such as apes and monkeys. I was searching 7 these three western lowland gorillas I’d been observing.

True to a gorilla’s unaggressive nature, the huge animal 9 (mean) me no real harm.

Making Chinese 1 (dish) is seen as especially troublesome. Many westerners 2 come to China cook much less than in their own countries once they realize how cheap 3 can be to eat out. I still remember 4 (visit) a friend who’d lived here for five years and I 5 (shock) when I learnt she hadn’t cooked once in all that time. While regularly eating out seems to 6 (become) common for many young people in recent years, it’s not without a cost. The obvious one is money; eating out once or twice a week may be 7 (afford) but doing this most days adds up. There could be an even 8 (high) cost on your health. Researchers have found that there is a direct link between the increase in food eaten outside the home and the rise in 9 (weigh) problems. If you are not going to suffer this problem, then I suggest that the next time you go to your mum’s home 10 dinner, get a few cooking tips from her. Cooking food can be fun. You might also begin to notice the effects not only on your health but in your pocket. 1.____________ 2.____________ 3.____________ 4.____________ 5.____________ 6.____________ 7.____________ 8.____________ 9.____________ 10.____________

石家庄二中实验学校2018级英语周考试卷 命题人张建伟做题人殷晓优考试时间8 月23 日 I 阅读理解（共4 小题；每小题2 分，满分8分） Recently, researchers at the University of Toronto figured out a way with a quick video selfie to accurately measure blood pressure with your smartphone’s camera by developing a technology known as transdermal optical imaging (TOI)(透皮光学成像). Cameras on smartphones can catch red light reflected from hemoglobin (血红素）under our skin, which permits TOI to visualize and measure blood flow changes. Researchers measured the blood pressure of 1,328 Canadian and Chinese adults by getting two-minute vide os of their faces on an iPhone. “From the video got by the technology, you can see how the blood flows in different parts of the face and through this flow, you can get a lot of information,” said Kang Lee, lead author of the study. Lee also helped create an app called Anura, which allows people to try out the TOI software for themselves, giving them the ability to record a 30-second video of their face and receive measurements for stress levels and resting heart rate. Lee said more research was needed to make sure that the measurements were as accurate as possible, explaining that the study didn’t test people with very dark or very fair skin. “In order to improve our app to make it usable, particularly for people with hypertension (高血压)，we need to collect a lot of data from them, which is very hard because a lot of them are already taking medicine,”Lee explained. “We cannot tell them not to take medicine, but from time to time, we get participants who don’t take medicine so we can get hypertensive people this way.” The scientists said there were many potential applications of the technology, including providing health services for those who lived in remote areas. 1. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 2？ A. Information offered by TOI. B. New findings on hypertension. C. How TOI is put into smart phones. D. How the TOI technology works. 2. What might people benefit from the new technology mentioned above? A. Living a life free from stress. B. Improving the heart function gradually. C. Accessing health services for free. D. Knowing abnormal blood pressure earlier. 3. What can be done for a better Anura? A. Equipping phones with better cameras. B. Allowing phones to record longer videos. C. Collecting data from more diverse samples. D. Persuading participants not to take medicine. 4. Why does the author write this text? A. To predict future applications of TOI. B. To introduce TOI and an app related. C. To describe functions of cameras on phones. D. To evaluate the quality of an app called Anura. II 单项选择（必修五U1-U5；满分15分，每小题1分） 5.
