My work as a woman photographer was considered as a serious shame to local traditions. The man-ruled job made me feel unwelcome by all possible means. They made it clear that a woman must not do a man‘s job. Photo agencies in Gaza refused to train me.Three of my co-workers went as far as to drive me to an open air strike(空袭)area where explosions(爆炸)were the only thing I could hear. I only realized we weren‘t there to document (记录)the event when the three of them got back into the armored(装甲)Jeep and drove away, waving and laughing, leaving me behind in the open air strike zone.For a moment, I fel t terrified, ashamed, and sorry for myself…I started paying closer attention to women‘s lives in Gaza. As a woman, I could go where myco-workers were forbidden to go. Beyond the obvious pain and suffering, there were healthy amounts of laughter and joy.In front of a police station in Gaza City, an Israeli air strike destroyed the station and broke my nose. For a moment, all I saw was bright white. I thought I had either gone blind or I was in heaven. By the time I managed to open my eyes, I had documented this moment.Mohammed Khader is a Palestinian worker who spent two decades in Israel. When he retired, he built a four-floor house. But his house was destroyed in this air strike. Nothing was left but a bathtub. Mohammed put the bathtub on the top of the ruins and started giving his kids a bubble bath every morning.My work is not meant to hide the scars of war, but to show the full unseen stories of Gazans. As a Palestinian female photographer, the journey of struggle, survival and everyday life has inspired me to overcome the community taboo(禁忌)and see a different side of war and its aftermath. I became a witness with a choice: to run away or stand still.1. The author was not welcome by her co-workers in the Gaza Strip because ________.A. she hadn‘t r eceived the training offered by the photo agencyB. the local traditions didn‘t allow a woman to do a man‘s jobC. her co-workers were going to take part in the battleD. she was terrified of explosions in the air strike area2. During the air strike on the police station, what happened to the author?A. Her nose was broken.B. She went blind.C. She went to heaven.D. She felt dizzy for a long time.3. The author used Mohammed Khader as an example to show __________.A. there was pain as well as laughter during the warB. how dangerous the surroundings were in GazaC. she could document common people‘s lives at the warD. how the war had influenced her life4. From the passage, it can be inferred that the author _________.A. woul dn‘t like to reveal the cruel side of warB. had to leave Gaza because of the community tabooC. decided to document more unseen scenes in the warD. was determined to run away from the war in Gaza【答案】BAAC【解析】【试源】2015-2016学年湖北省武汉华中师范大学第一附属中学高一上学期期中考试英语试题【结束】3.【题文】I use the public library weekly and on the shelf at this moment is The Child in Time, a novel about a three-year-old girl taken away by force and the disclosing of her parents‘ marriage—guilt, anger, grief, loneliness. I‘m a quarter of the way through this tidy novel but may return it to the library unfinished. Words are underlined in pencil by one of the previous readers who, I suspect, was trying to improve her vocabulary.The underlined words have stopped my progress and not because of annoyance. As a poet,sometimes searching for the right words myself, I began to consider the author of these pencil strikes. She was female, near my age (early 60s), and thoughtful about the years lost on a no-good husband. Like the graceful (优雅的) pencil marks, she was controlled in every way—touch, voice, makeup, and clothes. Perhaps a nurse attracted to the novel‘s theme? Or an inexperienced bookworm on her way to the morning shift by bus?I gave her the details of a life story, but one fact remained: A reader had underlined words. In doing so, she had accepted the view that learning doesn‘t end. She might have been a mail carrier(this is how I saw her by page 180), but she was not about to give up, now capped with gray hair.There are thousands of words we don‘t know, seen in print or heard in conversation. We can just let them go, and be none the worse because of it. But we can also give new words a try. The attempts are interesting.I might finish the novel—it‘s very good, after all. But as I read, I can‘t help thinking of the previous reader—nurse or mail carrier. She turned the page and, through reading glasses as thick as mine, made marks on her self-improvement.1. What do we know about the girl in the novel The Child in Time?A. She was upset because of wearing thick glasses.B. She was cheated at home by her parents.C. She grew up in a family lacking love and care.D. She loved to read novels at an early age.2. How did the underlined words affect the author?A. They have encouraged her to go on reading the novel.B. They have made her annoyed and she‘s stopped reading.C. She is determined to be a graceful reader like the former one.D. She began to imagine what the former reader is like.3. What does the passage say about the author?A. She‘s in her 60‘s and doesn‘t have a good family life.B. She has been interested in literature since childhood.C. She goes to work at the post office each morning by bus.D. She wants to become a attractive nurse through learning.4. What does the author think about new words she meets?A. They should be ignored to avoid feeling worse.B. By learning new words she can improve herself.C. She may give up reading because of the new words.D. They suggest how graceful and lonely the writer is.【答案】CDAB【解析】【试源】2015-2016学年湖北省武汉华中师范大学第一附属中学高一上学期期中考试英语试题【结束】4.【题文】Imagine this. You are visiting a beautiful mountain somewhere in the countryside.

It could be any event in your life. Perhaps your meeting at work did not go as well as you expected. Your new job was not what you expected. Maybe your relationship did not work out the way you hoped it would.Disappointments are dissatisfactions that arise when your expectations are not met byoutcomes. In short, a) you had an expectation, b) things did not unfold against the expectation.Every day, people deal with disappointments. Depending on how big the disappointment is and how you choose to deal with it, the feeling of disappointment may disappear after a short while or hang over your life for an extended period of time. If not handled properly, disappointments can lead to depression and eventually lack of concern.Contrary to what people may think, disappointments are actually positive phenomena, for two main reasons.1. Passion toward a causeDisappointment is the reflection of your passion toward something, whether it is a certain goal, dream, desire or outcome. Wherever there is a cause, there will be an effect--- in this case, the passion is the cause and disappointment is the effect. If you don‘t care about something, you wouldn‘t be feeling disappointed, would you? The very presence of disappointment suggests that this is something you care about so much that you would feel bad over it. The higher your disappointment, the stronger your passion for this is.As Martin Luther King Jr puts it, “There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love.”This deep love is what drives you toward your goals, dreams and desires. This deep love will be what fuels you in life, bringing you to places you have never been before. This deep love is what makes life worth living. Remember that disappointment is always a better emotional state than neutrality where the individual feels indifferent toward anything. I would much rather be feeling a negative emotion any day than feeling absolutely nothing. The ability to feel is what sets us apart from non-living beings. To feel nothing is to be a robot or a machine.2. Representing an opportunity for progressDisappointment also signals an opportunity for progress and growth. If you are disappointed in an outcome, it means there is actually a certain error in your framework of thought which needs correcting.Whenever you are disappointed, it means you have certain mental illusions (错觉) about reality which you need to address. If your understanding of reality are always right, you will never feel disappointed at all. By correcting your illusions and getting a more accurate picture of the reality, you are equipped with more knowledge. This knowledge is a source of power, power for you to act toward your goals.Think of disappointment as a troubleshooting tool which helps you iron out the twists in your understanding of reality. By using the knowledge from your previous experience, you can act more accurately toward your desires. The more you deal with disappointment and learn from it,【答案】1 Definition/Meaning/Concept 2. improperly 3. phenomena 4. reflects5.Passion6. better7. from8. signal9. corrected 10. understand【解析】【试源】2015-2016学年江苏省高邮市高二上学期期中调研英语试题【结束】8.【题文】Dentists often ask questions when it is possible to answer.

But in today‘s economy with airlines adding new fees almost daily and ticket prices sharply on the rise , many have written off travel as too expensive . However , with a few saving tricks and a little research , there are still lots of great deals to be had on airline tickets and more .Early Bird Gets the Deal .Travel experts say that there are certain times of day when more deals are available . Airfares can change three times a day as airlines adjust their prices to fill up flights . Early morning is when the fares tend to be lowest .What Wouldn‘t a Business Traveler do ?Flying when business travelers don‘t can save you big money . Most business travelers fly on Mondays and Fridays , so Tuesday and Wednesday are the best days . Airlines will usually lower their prices on these day to aggressively try and fill empty seats ._______________________________________Fly to popular places at unpopular times . The slowest time of the year for travel is in the Fall between Labor Day and Thanksgiving . Again , to try and fill more empty seats , the airlines will lower prices and offer better deals to get people to fly during this time of the year .Package DealsMany times the best deals on airfare can be found as part of a package rate . Most travel sites have package rates available . Often , the entire package ( hotel , airfare , rental car ) is cheaper than just the plane ticket on another site . Even if you don‘t need the rental car , with the money you‘ve saved on the flight , you can afford to take a taxi . These deals are especially good on last minute bookings .With a little inside knowledge and some good timing , you can get yourself a steal on a ticket to the vacation you thought was out of reach .1. What is the purpose of the passage ?A. To enlarge the knowledge of travelling .B. To share the tricks of finding a bargain .C. To recommend some prestigious scenic spots .D.

Psychologists usually use the Big Five personality model --- openness , conscientiousness , agreeableness , neuroticism(神经质)and extroversion(外向).Soto says people who are more conscientious tend to do better in the workplace and school . People who score high on agreeableness and low on neuroticism tend to have more satisfying and stable relationships . Extroverts do better in social and business occupations . According to Soto , even small changes in a person‘s personality can produce important effects on relationships , health and happiness . But change takes time . ― You start by changing the behavior and then , if you can maintain that new behavior over time , it gets cultivated , ‖ Soto says .Where do you start ? ― First , we have to recognize which pieces of our personality affect us , ‖says Richard Levak , a well-known personality expert . ― If I am always getting fired because I get into arguments with co-workers and always blame others , then I have to realize that I have to change something , ‖ he says .Don‘t set your expectation too high . Be patient . Warren Kennaugh , a behavioral strategist in Sydney , says it‘s important so start small . Identify a first step and then practice it without worrying about the primary results .1. The underlined word ― innate ‖ is closest in meaning to __________ .A. instructiveB. inbornC. indifferentD. informative2. If Steve is a successful sales manager , who always gets well along with others , he probably has the personality model of __________ .A. agreeableness and extroversionB. conscientiousness and opennessC. agreeableness and neuroticismD. openness and neuroticism3. We can learn from the passage that both Soto and Kennaugh think that __________ .A. adequate time and patience are needed in developing new personalitiesB. when in trouble , one always needs to reflect on his own behaviorsC. one must begin with small things to cultivate new personalitiesD. we are often not sure of the impact of our personalities on our life4. What is this passage mainly about ?A. People tend to be changeable as they mature .B. We can easily alter our personalities in a short time .C.

He wrote passionately about the great questions of life and death , the struggle to survive with honor and honesty , and he put these basic ideas into stories of high adventure with his own life at sea , or in Alaska , or in the fields and factories of California . As a result , his writing appealed not to the few .Along with his books and stories , however , Jack London was widely known for his personal exploits . He was a celebrity who was often in the news .

His decision to cast Marlon Brando in the lead also met with fierce opposition from the studio bosses. Good sense became popular, and The Godfather went on to become one of the most memorable movies ever. Critics may point out that he has become less creative after his seventies, but try as one might, no one can possibly take the place of this great director's work.Stanley Kubrick's movies focus on the themes like sci-fi, horror, dark humor and war. He used symbolism in most of his movies, giving us some wonderful screen visuals, as shown in 2001: A Space Odyssey. His actors in Hollywood complained about the endless number of retakes, but they appreciated the performance he milked out of them. People argue about films like Lolita, A Clockwork Orange and Paths of Glory, but these are now seen as classics.Steven Spielberg is a great success at the box office, and he is one of the world's most popular filmmakers today. As the creator of classics like Schindler's List, Jurassic Park, ET, Indiana Jones series, Jaws, Saving Private Ryan, no one can win his hold over the audience. His critics accuse him of being emotional and over the top, but the fact remains that his movies attract the audience and set the cash registers ringing.Woody Allen is a director who directs movies full of crime and hate. This comic genius has given us Annie Hall, Hannah and Her Sisters and Midnight in Paris, which have also become classical. His movies constantly include characters who arouse the audience's sympathy and laughter at the same time, as they set out on a journey of self-discovery. Hollywood star power has never fazed Allen. Thankfully, awards and honors do not interest him, which results in creativity that is original.1. What do the directors mentioned in the passage have in common?A. They are interested in awards for their works.B. They have created a lot of movies taken as classics.C. They are members of the New Hollywood gang.D. They focus their themes on the negative side of society.2. Stanley Kubrick's works include the following except _____.A. Midnight in ParisB. 2001: A Space OdysseyC. A Clockwork OrangeD. Paths of Glory3. It is implied in the underlined sentence that Steven Spielberg _____.A. was successful in amusing the audienceB. had set a cash register working for himselfC. became much better at creating classicsD. succeeded in making a great box office4. What will be discussed in the paragraph that follows this passage?A. Their contribution to society.B. Another famous movie director.C. The difference between the directors.D. More great movies of the directors.【答案】BADB【解析】【试源】2015届省市部分重点中学高三第二次联考【结束】4.【题文】____________________ is whether the newcomer can get along well with his new classmates.

I wondered briefly why they were there but then forgot about them as I couldn‟t wait to see my gifts.Once I got home, there was hardly any time to enjoy my gifts. My grandparents were still waiting for us to have Christmas dinner together at their house. As we drove down the highway, I noticed that the family was still there.The closer we got to my grandparents‟house, the slower the car went. Suddenly, my father U-turned and said, “I can‟t stand it!”“What?” asked my mother. “It‟s those people back there at the gas station, standing in the rain.”When my father pulled into the station, I saw there were five of them: the parents and three children—two girls and a small boy.

Winborn‟s just a few miles away, and there is a shed(棚) with a cover there,” my father advised. “I will run you up there.”Then they climbed into our car,. My father looked back and asked the children if Father Christmas had found them. Three sad faces gave him his answer.“Well, Father Christmas said he was having trouble finding you, so he just left your toys at my house this morning. Let‟s go to get them first,” my father said.

The Kinema showed its first film in 1922 and the first six rows were deckchair (折叠帆布躺椅). Today, it‟s more richly decorated.“People come here because it‟s a fantastic experience,”says manager Philip Jones. “Many rooms in the Kinema are simple and not attractive, but we try to remain everything that makes it special.”The Cube, BristolIt‟s not really a cinema. It is a not-for-profit cooperative run by volunteers, which has been operating for the last 15 years.They are “unique for what we do, which is to operate seven nights a week and with no funding.” They make many things themselves, such as cola and yogurt.The Broadway, NottinghamA cinema has been here since the 1960s, when local fashion designer Paul Smith would come to see arty foreign films, which heavily influenced his career choice. Later, he designed the stripy(条纹的) sofas.The Broadway was previously used as a church, but locals love it for its independent, art house, and DIY spirit. The Broadway also has a right-on restaurant, with locally sourced vegetables and salads, and even serves its own beer.The Rex, HertfordshireIt opened to the public in 1938 and has been named the most beautiful cinema in the UK. There‟s a varied program with different films every night. Hot dogs and popcorn are banned. And a real person answers the phone when you call.People speak very highly of the Rex.

With no end in sight, Jewish refugee(难民) agencies requested the British government to allow them to bring in only Jewish children under17 years of age. This was to be only temporary, until the situation in their home countries was improved.Kindertransport, meaning “children transport” in German, was then born. Children from Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland and other Nazi-occupied regions were transported to the United Kingdom. There they were either placed with other families or in hostels. Later, it was found that many of these children were the only survivors of their families. Nicholas Winton wasamong those people who helped to save Jewish children. He managed to rescue 669 children from Czechoslovakia and bring them safely to England. In 1938 around Christmas, 29-year-old Nicky was about to leave for a skiing holiday. Suddenly, Martin Blake, one of his good friends, contacted(联络) him from Czechoslovakia, asking him to travel there to help political refugees on the run from the Nazis. And Nicholas agreed.Nicky spent his entire holiday of 3 weeks in the capital city of Prague where he saw the situation first-hand. Once back in England, he immediately started organizing the evacuation(撤离) of children from the Czech region. From advertising for the necessary permits, Nicky worked tirelessly. By August 1939, 669 children had been helped by Nicky and his friends. Haplessly, the last group of children due to leave Prague in the beginning of September could not do so—World War Ⅱbroke out, and swallowed them up.Nicky did not discuss his particular task with his wife, Grete. It was only when she found a scrapbook in 1988, with names of the rescued children, their (lost) parents and the foster families that had taken them in, that his heroism came to light. Nicky has received several awards in Britain and the Czech Republic.1.Kindertransport aimed to_____.M.help the homelessN.transfer the affectedO.stop German attacksP.save Jewish children2.We can learn from the text that Nicholas Winton_____.Q.knew nothing about what happened in PragueR.did a lot to help Jewish children out of dangerS.always told his wife what he was doingT.saved 669 children and their parents3.The underlined word “Haplessly” in Paragraph 4 can best be replaced by “___”.U.Unfortunately B.

I knew I’d have been beside myself if my own salary was not in my account, so I tried to get the money back to the right person. Easier said than done.The bank couldn’t help as it wasn’t a bank problem. The human resources department at the company that paid me was unable to help as I didn’t have enough details. I rang the bank again. Thankfully I had a sympathetic call operator who gave me a name, so I again rang the company “Daniel” worked for.I expected the bank would contact me to arrange to take the money from my account and repay Daniel. I heard nothing for a month and the money remained in my account when Daniel called, explaining he’d tried to get back his money but had been unsuccessful as neither the bank nor his company felt it was their error. He had rung to ask if I could speak to the bank, but after chatting for a few minutes we realized we could probably fix this problem ourselves.We decided I would take the money from my account and he would pick it up from me. Due to my busy job I was unable to meet Daniel personally but he left me a lovely bottle of wine in exchange for what was rightfully his. I never had any intention of keeping Daniel’s pay but red tape(繁琐手续) made it difficult to do the right thing. It all came down to two people being able to do what a huge bank and a large company couldn’t do—admit a mistake has occurred and fix it.1. What was the attitude of the author towards the extra money in his bank account?A. He didn’t know what to do with it.B. He felt lucky to get it.C. He thought of keeping it for himself.D. He wanted to return it to the right person.2. The underlined phrase “beside myself”(inParagraph1) probably means___________.A. very fortunateB. very angryC. really thankfulD. at ease3. How was the problem solved in the end?A. The author and Daniel solved the problem themselves.B. It cost Daniel a lovely bottle of wine to get back his money.C. The author gave the money back to the company.D. The call operator offered to solve their problem.4. From the passage we can infer that___________.A. the bank could solve the problem soon and easily with the red tapeB. some large organizations usually have troublesome official rulesC. Daniel didn’t know the error before he contacted the authorD. the company gave the wrong account to the bank【答案】DBAB【解析】【试源】2015-2016学年福建省四地六校高二上学期第三次联考(12月)英语试卷【结束】20.【题文】It was a sunny but cold winter here in the mountains.

First-time hunter Beth Trammell initially broke the record when she caught a 723-pound 13-foot gator with a team of six hunters, but Bockman stole her thunder hours later.

9.【题文】―Holding girls back from an education is robbing them of their dignity (尊严),‖ says Mariam, a teacher,in an interview with Action Press. ―I feel proud when I tell people that I’m from Swat in Pakistan, with its green and mountainous valley. But I don't feel proud about the number of women and girls where I'm from who are still being unable to enjoy the right for an education. ―I have taught many students — including Malala, the young education activist who was shot in the head as travelling to school in Pakistan after campaigning for girls' education. Among them I see the dignity that education can offer. This is why I have long been devoted to teaching, and why I am doing what I can to make sure that all girls have the chance to go to school. ―At the Khushaal school and college in Mingora, many girls are prevented from going to school because of poverty (贫困) and fights. However, the most common reasons for girls not attending classes are cultural. People fear that females will become too independent if educated. Instead, parents prefer to marry off girls early. Girls and young women are considered a financial burden if left dependent on their parents.‖ ―In the school where I have been teaching for over ten years, I have seen how this discrimination plays out. Parents regard an educated and independent female as being too clever for her own. Even if parents agree to give a girl an education, a limit is set to the number of years for her to attend classes and it is common for girls to make it through only primary school. This is why I have been working tirelessly to change these damaging views and cultural practices. These are crimes against humanity (人道),which I have no choice but to strongly accuse of.‖ ―Malata was right to fight for her education.‖ says Mariam, who will be in New York with UNESCO (联合教科文姐织),delivering a speech calling for world leaders to make sure every child gets a chance to go to school. 1. What does Mariam take pride in? A. Her dignity from education. B. Her lifelong devotion to teaching. C. Her hometown with fantastic scenery. D. Her experience as a speech maker. 2. What is the major reason to prevent girls from going to school?
