John Urschel was living a life many athletes only dreamed of. He was a player in the National Football League(NFL). Until Thursday, the 26-yearold Urschel played for the Baltimore Ravens football team. But not anymore. He announced he was giving up football to study math at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Urschel played in the NFL for three years. He came to the Ravens after playing in college at Penn State University in State College, Pennsylvania.Urschel was well-known among American sports fans for being both a good football player and also a mathematician. Urschel studied complex math, like advanced algebra and machine learning. He wrote about his studies in a 2015 article in The Players Tribune. It was called "Why I Still Play Football ". He wrote that he loved math, but also loved to play football.Urschel was an offensive lineman. That means he used his large body--over 1.9 meters tall and 136 kilograms--to keep the opposing team's players from tackling his teammates. But also means that he ran into other players over and over again. A study was released about the1/ 26brains of American-style football players. Researchers examined the brains of 1ll former NFL players who had died. All but one of them showed signs of chronic traumatic encephalopathy. That is the brain disease known as CTE. It is linked to hits to the head that are common in football.The Baltimore football team posted the news on Twitter. The team just started practicing for the new season. Baltimore's coach is John Harbaugh. He said, "We wish him all the best in his future efforts.”Urschel is not the only football player to announce his retirement this week. Andrew Hawkins retired on Tuesday at the age of 31, announcing his plans to study business and economics. 1.What can be known about John Urschel?A.He risked getting a brain disease in some way because of his team roleB.He was popular with world-wide players and mathematiciansC.He preferred learning maths to playing football.D.He was the cleverest one among his teammates. 2.CTE is a kind of disease which _________.

It’s responsible for winter tourism as we know it today. It was a small band of English holidaymakers that changed Switzerland forever. In 1864 a bet took place between hotelier Johannes Badrutt and the vacationers on a damp September evening in St Moritz. As they sat around the fire at the Engadiner Kulm Hotel, concerned about returning to the foggy London winter, the Swiss manager saw a golden opportunity.“You holiday here in summer,” he challenged them over a bottle of red wine. “Why not enjoy the mountains year-round? Winter is so pleasant that on fine days you can even walk without a jacket.” Attracted by the promise of clean skies against a backdrop of towering peaks, the Englishmen were pleased to accept it; up until then, St Moritz had been a modest hiking destination in July and August. But if Badrutt’s promise proved false, the hotelier would pay for their journey and winter-long stay. How could they lose?Come mid-December, the group of men returned to Switzerland. Towards the end of their week-long journey, sitting on a horse-pulled---------------------------------------------------------------最新资料推荐------------------------------------------------------ sledge and wrapped head-to-toe in furs, they went through the 2,284m Julier Pass in southeastern Switzerland. But by the time of their arrival in St Moritz, the skies had cleared, they were sweating abundantly, and Badrutt, jacketless and with his shirt sleeves rolled up, was there to greet them.Of course, Badrutt won the bet. Word quickly spread throughout Britain about St Moritz’s distinctive climate—dry and sunny with a high degree of snow certainty. Year-round tourism landed the Alpine town of St Moritz.That Badrutt almost single-handedly marketed this undeveloped winter wonderland is a little unbelievable. The first tourist office in Switzerland had been established in the same year as the bet. Other resorts like the ones in Davos and Grindelwald were also popping up then. The story of St Moritz is, in some ways, also a tale of social transformation. But what Badrutt did made the Swiss mountains accessible in a way that no one else had done before, so his role as pioneer cannot be downplayed. 1.What can we infer about Johannes Badrutt? A.He had a good sense of business. B.He was a man with some disabilities. C.He disliked living in mountains. D.He was addicted to gambling. 2.How did the British vacationers react to the bet? A.They refused it because they thought it was unfair.7/ 26B.They’d rather pay for their winter journey by themselves.C.They thought that a jacket-free walk was possible.D.They were sure that Badrutt would lose the bet. 3.What finally made Badrutt the winner of the bet? A.His warmest welcome. B.The hotelier’s courage and wealth. C.The vacationers’ passion for travelling.3---------------------------------------------------------------最新资料推荐------------------------------------------------------ D.The unique climate of St Moritz.4.What does the author think of the success of St Moritz?A.Davos and Grindelwald helped a lot.B.He owes it completely to the bet.C.Badrutt played an important role.D.The success was made by tourist office.4、Michelin inspectors, the super secret spies of the restaurant industry, are the anonymous(匿名的) keepers of the famous Michelin star rating. They’ve been writing anonymous reports ofrestaurants for over 100 years.“We say it’s a little like th e CIA,” said inspector “M” with a laugh. She asked that heridentity not be revealed. “My whole life is staying under the radar, staying away from cameras,using fake names, trying to steal in and out of restaurants quietly.”Along with their boss, Jean Luc Naret, the director of the Michelin Guide, about 90inspectors around the world decide which restaurants will win the cooking equivalent (等价物) ofan Oscar, the Nobel Prize and Megamillions jackpot (百万彩票) all at once. The Michelin Guidecovers 23 countries, and out of the 45,000 rated restaurants, less than 100 have the top rating —only nine American restaurants carry three stars.If the name “Michelin” brings the tires on your car to mind, you’re not too far off. TheMichelin rating began in France in 1900 as a9/ 26marketing trick. The Michelin brothers thought theircustomers would bum more rubber if given a list of hotels and restaurants to explore.Inspector “M” admitted being an inspector leads to a lonely dining life. “Most of the time wedine alone,” she said. “It gives us the ability to really focus on the food and t he atmosphere andcapture the entire experience.” To cover their tracks, “M” said sometimes two inspectors will dinetogether and write two separate papers. It’s better than saying “table for one”, right?“When you’re really, really into food and very crazy about food, everything else that’s goingon around you isn’t so important,” she said.1.The underlined words “under the radar” in Paragraph 2 mean.A.living in dangerB.being the focus of the mediaC.trying to be unnoticedD.making programs on the radio2.The Michelin rating was first carried out in order to .A.open more hotels and restaurantsB.bring more convenience to driversC.make people familiar with “Michelin”D.make a profit by selling more tires of a certain brand3.Sometimes two inspectors dine together so that they can.A.cut the expense on the foodB.protect their identitiesC.save trouble by sharing a paperD.talk about the food over the meal4.What would be the best title for the text?A.M’s experience as a CIAB.The legend of---------------------------------------------------------------最新资料推荐------------------------------------------------------ Michelin brothers411/ 26C.Michelin inspectors: food industry spiesD.Michelin — a giant in tire and restaurant industry 5、 It can be truly terrifying to fall into a frozen lake. ①__________In fact, there is more time to help you survive than you think.As you first enter the freezing water, you should breathe quickly at once. Remember to get control of your breathing and not to move around. ②__________This means that it takes about one minute to gain control of your breathing, and ten minutes to move before you get too cold. The final one is to remind you that it will take one hour before you become unconscious.Take the first minute to fully focus on your breathing.

When you locate the ice, stretch your arms over the surface, and then begin the flutter kick(浅打水)until your body becomes horizontal with the surface. ③__________It is possible that you can live for several hours after passing out. This, however, does require some planning. \ou only have about 10 minutes before your muscles and nerves become too cold to work. Besides, what if you feel too weak to go on and you cannot get out? ④__________The point is to make sure your coat can freeze to the ice, so that if you lose consciousness, you will keep your head out of the water. ⑤__________ A. It can help---------------------------------------------------------------最新资料推荐------------------------------------------------------to remember the “1-10-1 principle”. B.

2020年浙江省某校高考英语仿真模拟试卷第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分22.5分)第一节(共10个小题;每小题2.5分,满分22.5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.1. Jules is now in his sixties, and is one of the many homeless people who live on the streets; he buys a newspaper most days. Today, with his fellow tramps, he reads about yesterday's student demonstrations.Like many of the tramps who live under the bridges, Jules was not always so poor. A long time ago he was in the Navy, and like many who have been to sea for a long time, he has stayed slim and fit. Despite the strict organization on board ship, he loved his life, and had the opportunity to see many countries. He visited Poland and Russia; in South Africa he realized what he valued in each country was the people he met. He was always astonished and delighted by the ways in which the people he met differed from one country to another. Some day, he hopes, everyone will see the world as he does.After many happy years in the Navy, he had to retire. The good things in life always come to an end. His mother and father had long since died and he'd lost touch with his other relatives. He became an industrial designer. He was happy, although it wasn't the sameas the sea. He never wanted to get married and have children.And then there was the period of darkness. He smiles sadly. He shrugs his shoulders and looks at his hands. There are tears in the corners of his eyes. This is something thathe cannot bring himself to talk about. "It all went wrong, " he whispers.He was silent for a while, then recovered. He began to talk more loudly."Look at me now﹣﹣it makes me angry. And what about the President? He's been in power for years, and look what he's done for us. Nothing! I am still out on the streets and live the lifeof a dog."(1)What can we learn about Jules' life in the Navy?________A He only visited three countries.B He enjoyed the life on board ship.C He was very well paid for the job he did.D He liked meeting people from different countries..(2)Why did Jules change his job according to the passage?________A He wanted to start a family.B He wanted to be near his relatives.C He didn't enjoy the work any more.D He was too old to stay in the Navy..(3)What is Jules's opinion of the President?________A The President should increase pensions for old people.B The President had nothad enough time to change things. C The President should have done more to help people like him. D The President should not allow homeless people to stay on the streets.2. If you cut in line, you might just be a bad person. The queue is a regulation where the reward (the ice﹣cream stand/dining room/ticket booth) is earned through patience. Your choice to avoid this time﹣honored process will be bound to draw the anger of those you pass by, drawing remarks like "Whoa there, Chief, " the passive﹣aggressive "There's a line, you know!" and of course, the incredibly common "Hey, Copernicus, whydon't you guide yourself to the back of the line? "But, in the moment in which you really cannot wait, for example, the entire royal family has prepared a dinner party upon you last minute, then there is a way to cut the line correctly.There are a few different ways to consider and a few different methods to employ. The regularity of the situation is very important. If you're waiting to use the photocopier at work, you might be more likely to manage a successful cut than if you were waiting for a lifeboat on the Titanic. Sure, that might be an extreme example. But the importance of the event does matter.For those requests in normal situations, emphasizing either the urgency of your task or the simplicity of your task proved to be effective: experimenters who said "Excuse me, I have five pages. May I use the photocopier? " had a cut rate of 60 percent and experimenters who said "May I use the photocopier because I need to make copies? " saw a success rate of 90 per cent when queuing for the copy machine.If you have a couple of extra dollars lying around, bribing members of the line also proved to be effective. And most of the time, the person being bribed didn't end up accepting the money, because even the offer showed that the briber had a sense of desperation.(1)Why does the author use the remarks about Chief and Copernicus in paragraph 1?________A To illustrate the reaction from members in line.B To encourage those who want to cut in line.C To praise the behavior of cutting in line.D To provide advice which helps cut in line..(2)Which of the following is not a wise way to cut in line?________A Giving the members in line money.B Stating the emergency of theevent. C Considering the regularity of the situation. D Defending the right of cutting in line..(3)What is the best title for the text?________A Be Patient When Queuing.B Acceptable Ways to Cut in Line.C Time and Tides Waits for No Man.D Special Rights under Emergency.3. Summer is here, and with it comes a chance you'll get too much sun. While there's no cure for sunburn, a small but fascinating new study suggests taking large amounts of vitamin D after exposure may prevent the associated redness and inflammation (发炎). In the paper, researchers exposed 20 volunteers to a light resembling solar radiation to induce a sunburn on a small piece of skin. They then gave the "burn victims" large amounts of vitamin D, and followed up with participants one, two and three days (and a week)later to measure skin redness and thickness. The researchers found that vitamin D decreased inflammation and redness, compared with taking a placebo(安慰剂). And this effect increased in proportion to how much was consumed. Vitamin D also appears to increase the activity of a gene called arginase﹣1, which is involved in tissue repair and healing. Taking 50, 000 international units (IU) of vitamin D﹣﹣125 times the recommended daily allowance﹣led to a significant reduction in redness andinflammation, compared with the placebo. Those who took 100, 000 IU had even less redness and pain; and those who took 200, 000 IU had the greatest reduction in inflammation.This is the first study to show vitamin D can reduce inflammation, and suggests that it "could potentially help prevent sunburn, " says senior author Kurt Lu, a physician scientist and assistant professor at Case Western Reserve University.It used to be thought vitamin D was primarily involved in building healthy bones and muscles, but recent research has found it has many more roles, including influencing inflammation, such as the kind associated with sunburns.So, if you get burned, should you take a lot of vitamin D? The study authors don't recommend it. "I think that's probably not a good idea and not well established by this study, " says Barbara Gilchrest, a physician scientist at Massachusetts General Hospital. Such large amounts, if taken repeatedly, have the potential to cause vitamin D toxicity(毒性).(1)What does this passage mainly talk about?________A An unusual method for relieving sunburn.B Tips for how to travel safely in summer.C A suggestion on taking vitaminD properly. D Advice on how to take medicine effectively..(2)How do the researchers confirm the healing effect of taking vitamin D?________A By observing the inflammation of skin every day.B By measuring the thickness of skin after a week.C By increasing the daily volume of vitaminD By comparing the effect with that of placebo..(3)Figures are used in paragraph 2 in order to________.A recommend the daily intakeB argue against the benefits of more VitaminD C show the more Vitamin D, the greater benefits D(4)What can be inferred about the function of vitamin D?________A Repeatedly taking large amounts of Vitamin D is beneficial.B Vitamin D may bring more advantages to us than what has been found out.C Don't take vitaminD unless your doctor approves you to do it. D Vitamin D is more useful for curing sunburn than building healthy bones.第二节(共1小题;每小题10分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.4. It is amusing that yogurt, which was invented to make milk last longer before the days of refrigeration, now makes grocery shopping last longer. Full﹣fat, or nonfat? Greek,or regular?(1)_______A key recommendation when it comes to fat is to choose low﹣fat or fat﹣freeyogurt. That's because dairy fat is mostly saturated (饱和的), the type linked with increased risk of heart disease. Besides, full﹣fat dairy has more calories than nonfat.This view, however, has been challenged by a few recent studies. Researchers think that full﹣fat dairy might offer some as﹣yet﹣unknown health benefits. It might also help with weight management because the fat in it makes it more satisfying, helping keep our appetite in check.(2)_______ Until there are further findings, it might be wiser to choose low﹣fat or fat﹣free yogurt and add healthy fat by topping it with nuts.(3)_______ Many of them also have a hard time deciding whether to buy Greek yogurt or regular yogurt. Greek yogurt, which was rare about a decade ago, dominates the store shelves with dozens of flavors today. It has become popular partly because it features a thick, creamy texture (口感) and contains more protein and less sugar than regular yogurt.Greek yogurt has these qualities because of its unique liquid﹣removingprocess. Unfortunately, lots of nutrients, including calcium (钙), are sometimes drained, too. Therefore, thickened yogurt and regular yogurt offer different nutritional benefits.(4)_______Finally, it is worth mentioning that it's the added sugar, not the naturally﹣ occurring sugar (which is removed in Greek yogurt), that should be the cause of our concern. Fruit﹣flavored yogurts that appear to be healthy may have little actual fruit and plenty of added sugar instead.(5)_______A. Consumers, however,are not confused only about fat.B. Mixing them up and enjoying both might be a good idea.C. With so many conflicting headlines about fat these days, it's no wonder people are confused when buying dairy products.D. Our best bet might be to buy plain yogurt and sweeten it ourselves using fresh fruit.E. There are so many choices that we often find it hard to decide which yogurt to buy.F. They're naturally "packaged" with so many important nutrients that it would be misguided to avoid them.G. Yet more research needs to be done for us to fully understand dairy fat's health impact.第三部分:语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节:完形填空(共1小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面材料,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项.5.

2020届高考英语仿真模拟试卷(2)1、Everyone at Pacsafe is always eager to get out in the world and enjoy new cultures, food, and experiences. With that in mind we asked a few of our top travel bugs for their best travel destination recommendations for 2019. They also included their favorite Pacsafe bag to take on the trip. Enjoy and hopefully get some ideas for your own globe-trotting adventure.Sri Lanka---Alison Hanko, Global Marketing DirectorI’m going to Sri Lanka this summer holiday and can’t wait. It’s close to Ho ng Kong where I live and I’ve always wanted to go. The food is supposed to be amazing. It seems really relaxing and I really want to do the Kandy to Badulla train ride, which looks just stunning. We’ve booked a good mix of beaches, some time in a safari tent to hopefully see elephants in the wild.For my bag, I’ll most likely take the Quiksilver 40L Pack because it has the built-in wet pack for my swimming suit. It’s also a great size for a week-long trip in a warm climate.Japan---Ben Barras, Creative DirectorJapan is definitely my best travel destination recommendation. The culture, the streets, the architecture, the inspiration you get from all of that is amazing. The food is also fascinating. It’s where I’m most planning to go. Tokyo obviously, but als o visiting the mountains. You can go snowboarding, which I haven’t done for years.I have a Vibe 25L Backpack which you can pack a lot in. The thing I like most about it is that it’s compact, but still fits plenty in. I’ll pair that up with a larger travel bag for the rest of my things and use the backpack to get around day to day.Berlin---Phil Hayes, Executive VP of Global DesignFor me, it’s definitely Berlin. I’m particularly excited about the fashion, which I hear is pretty full on. Also the art galler ies and history. Food, nightlife. Everything I’ve heard about Berlin is pretty cool, so I’m going to suck as much as I can out of it. World’s Global Style Network had the Berlin shopping list that came out recently, so I’m going to follow that through as well.Bag wise, it will be the Quiksilver X Collab Bag. It’s the 25L Anti-theft Backpack. It’s normally my go-to bag for city trips because it’s super easy to lock on the plane and in bars, and it’s just the right amount of space.1.Which of the Pacsafe bag is a good choice for beach travel?A.The Quiksilver 40L Pack.B.The Vibe 25L Backpack.C.The Quiksilver X Collab Bag.D.25L Anti-theft Backpack.2.If you are interested in fashion, which destination should you choose?A.Sri Lanka.B.Japan.C.Berlin.D.Hong Kong.3.The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A.share personal travelling experiencesB.offer practical tips on taking adventureC.present cultures in different countriesD.recommend favorable travel destinations2、Surfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee, according to an Australian study.The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive than those who do not. Study author Brent Coker said, "Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employee's attention.""People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention," Coker said on the university's website. "Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day's work, and as a result, increases productivity(生产效率)," he said.According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos. "Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching videos, using social networking sites or shopping online," said Coker. "That's not always a good idea."However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation(适度), or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office."Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without," he said.(1).What does the University of Melbourne study mainly show?A.People who surf the Internet are good employees.B.Not everyone surfs the Internet for fun during office hours.C.The Internet is becoming more and more important in people's life.D.Surfing the Internet for fun at times during office hours increases productivity.(2).Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as one of the most popular surfing activities?A.Watching videos.B.Reading online news.C.Reading online novels.D.Playing online games.(3).The underlined word "block" in Paragraph 4 means "_______".A.stopanizeC.protectD.separate(4).What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Those who never surf the Internet have the lowest productivity.B.Spending too much time surfing the Internet reduces productivity.C.Most people don't surf the Internet in moderation during office hours.D.People should spend as little time as possible surfing the Internet.3、It probably won’t surprise you that teens are texting more than ever before. Experts show great concern for teen texting. Students might not learn correct grammar and spelling if they write a lot of text messages. Also all that texting takes away from hours that could be spent studying, exercising, pursuing hobbies, or talking with others face to face. Some kids even sleep with their phones beneath their pillows and wake up several times during the night to text.Dr. Elizabeth Dowdell points out teens need to learn that they can—and should—turn off their phones sometimes. She and her team had two teenagers, Kenny and Franchesca, carry out an experiment. They should obey the rules: No phone for 48 hours. No computer or Internet either, unless it was for schoolwork. Would these two teenagers be able to do it?“ I think I’m going to feel really alone,” Kenny worried. Franchesca was nervous but brave. “I’m excited for the challenge,” she said. “I don’t know what’s going to happen.” They handed their phones to their mothers for safekeeping. The challenge was on.The team caught up with Kenny and Franchesca after 48 phone-free hours. “Wow, it was pure suffering,” Kenny joked. “Though life with no phone wasn’t easy,” he admitted, “it had benefits. I felt less stres sed because I didn’t have to be involved.” Sure, Kenny missed his friends, and he was sad at times. But he also felt relief from the constant texting. Instead of texting, Kennywent to the gym and caught up on schoolwork. He said that the first night he slept for 10 hours. He also spent time sitting with his family and talking. “I felt closer to my parents,” said Kenny.Franchesca had an even happier result when she put away her phone. “I loved it!” she said. “I was going to the gym and hanging out with fri ends and playing basketball. I had a wonderful experience.” She slept better too, and she decided to continue the experiment for a while. “I think I’ll be so much smarter and healthier,” she explained. “Everybody in the world should try it.”Kenny doesn’t plan to give up his phone again. But he now knows that he can live without it. “It was a reality check,” said the teen.1.Experts are concerned about teens’ texting because it ______.A.leads to learning disabilitiesB.takes up their learning timeC.develops the habit of staying up lateD.causes misunderstandings with each other2.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Teens will live a healthier life without phones.B.Expecting teens to live without phones is not realistic.C.Experimenting with phone use is popular among teens.D.Teens don’t realize how different their lives are without phones.3.How were the two teens’ reactions to the 48-hour challenge different?A.Only Kenny participated in physical activities.B.Only Kenny spent time talking with his parents.C.Only Franchesca benefited from a really good sleep.D.Only Franchesca appreciated the freedom of having no phone.4.Which is the best title for the passage?A.Giving up TextingB.Rules for Using PhonesC.Two Days with No PhoneD.Problems Caused by Texting4、Children in rural areas of Cambodia often suffer from or even die of preventable illnesses because there is not any soap available.In 2014, Samir Lakhani, an American college student, saw the issue while volunteering in a Cambodian village. "I remember quite vividly a mother bathing her newborn baby with laundry powder, which is so harmful to the skin," said Lakhani. "It's difficult for rural Cambodians to access soap. First is affordability. If you earn only $1.50 every day, you won't spend $1 on a bar ofsoap. Then comes access. The demand is so low that local shops don't stock soap. The last reason, because many Cambodians don't really understand where diseases come from, they don't know how to prevent them, including using soap."After figuring out a solution to the problem: the barely used soap in hotels, Lakhani started asking hotels to donate leftover soap. "They were all eager to help," he explained.Lakhani registered Eco-Soap Bank shortly afterwards. Soon, he received enough funds to hire disadvantaged Cambodian women to collect and reproduce the used soap.Today, the organization has four recycling centers across the country, providing jobs to 35 local women. And so far, some 174,000 bars of soap have been donated, about 24,000 pounds of soap has been recycled, and hygiene (卫生) has been improved for about 661,000 people. "We are killing three birds with one stone," Lakhani said.When it comes to the future of Eco-Soap Bank, Lakhani said, "We've just scratched the surface. Lack of hygiene is not something unique to Cambodia. The demand for improved hygiene in the developing world is huge, and much remains to be done. We're looking at seven countries to expand to in the near future."(1).Which of the following is not mentioned as the reason why rural Cambodians don't use soap?A.Poverty.B.Inaccessibility.C.Unawareness.D.Tradition.(2).What does the underlined part "killing three birds" in Paragraph 5 refer to?A.Saving soap, curing diseases and providing education.B.Stopping pollution, providing jobs and inspiring donation.C.Reducing waste, providing employment and improving health.D.Recycling waste, helping charity and improving community hygiene.(3).What can we infer about Eco-Soap Bank?A.It won't be long before it expands to the whole world.B.There's little it can do without other countries' assistance.C.It will make greater contributions to the developing world.D.It will soon settle the problem of poor hygiene in Cambodia.(4).What do we know about the text?A.Eco-Soap Bank helps improve hygiene.B.Cambodian women have a bright future.C.A US young man calls for helping poor countries.ck of hygiene remains a serious problem in the world.5、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。

And yetthe more necessary does it become to relieve my heartwith some message of love, even if it be only written.Please go to ride with us this evening, precious little girl, so that I can whisper something in your ear --something of my happiness and love, and accept this,in the meantime, as a piece out of my very heart, which is all yours but cannot be sent as I wish to send itby letter. It has to be presented in person. I cannotexpress in written words, either, the happiness yougave me last night. How unspeakably lovely and delightful you are, and how altogether satisfying --and how empty and lonely the house is without you. Youcarry away its light and its home-likeness whenever you leave it. It seems to yearn(思念) for you as I do.I love, love, love you.Your own56. When he was writing the letter, we can infer thatthe writer’s mood was _____.A. nervousB. joyfulC. depressedD. calm57.

The hotel will be 40 feet down in the Mediterranean. As all theworld opened to tour operators, there was still a frontier behind which lay three quarters of the globe’s surface, the sea; in whose cool depths light fades;no winds blow; there are no stars. There even the mostbored travelers could catch their sense of romance,terror or beauty again. For a submerged(水下的) hotelis such a beautiful idea.The hotel will cost $170,000 and will be able toaccommodate(提供住宿) up to ten people a night. Up till now only scientists and professional divers have lived under the sea, but soon, for the first time, the public will be able to go down into the darkness. They willhave to swim down in diving suits, but at 40 feet there would be no problem about decompression (解除压力). Design of the hotel was the most important. Most ofthe underwater structures used before had been in theshape of a diving bell or submarine. Professional divers could deal with such things successfully butordinary people would run the risk of violent claustrophobia(幽闭恐怖).Then an Austrian architect had the idea of making three interconnecting circular structures, 18 feet in diameter, and looking much like flying saucers. Theywould be cast in concrete(混凝土铸造物) and launched from the shore. Towed into position they would then besunk. A foundation of cast concrete would already bein place on the sea-bed. Pylons would attach the structures to this. Once in position the structureswould be pumped dry. The pylons made to withstand anuplift pressure of 350 tons, would then take the strain.Cables linking the underwater structures to the hotel on shore would connect it with electricity, fresh water, television, and an air pump, and also get rid of wastewater. Entry would be from underneath, up a ladder;because of the pressure inside there would be no needof airlocks or doors.60. From the passage we understand that tour operators and travelers will be interested in the submerged hotel as _________.A. it is a quiet place for research workB. it is an ideal sea-food restaurantC. it will offer new possibilitiesD. it will have unchanging weather61. What design was finally considered most suitablefor the new hotel?A. Three separated circles.B. Three linked discs.C. Three connected circlesD. Three interlocked cylinders62. The hotel would be able to float under water because it would be _______.A. made of light materialB. 350 tons in weightC. filled with airD. attached to pylons63. The purpose of this passage is _______.A. to introduce the design of a submerged hotelB. to advertise the tour underwaterC. to tell people it’s very interesting to travel underwaterD. to describe a submerged hotel which has already been builtCCitizens of War-Torn Congo Await outcome of HistoricElectionsBy Jerilyn WatsonBroadcast: Saturday, August 05, 2006Citizens of the Democratic Republic of Congo had towait a long time for the elections last Sunday.

As China becomes an industrialized society, universities should not only educate researchers and managers, but also train skilled workers to support new industries. Hai pointed out that most majors focus on theory and lack practical applications. As a result,universities lag behind in economic reform .President Hai also said that junior communitycolleges in the United States, which were establishedto help citizens find jobs after World War Two, provide a good example of how China could produce more blue-collar workers; students attach little value toChina's junior colleges, while in the US junior community colleges have lower tuitions, are easily accessible, provide more job opportunities for graduates, and consist of 41 percent of the country's3,000 post-secondary educational facilities.But only 31 percent of netizens support Hai ---according to statistics posted on , believing that if universities took on the job of trade schools, not only would skilled workers be better trained, they would also have the same status as whitecollar workers, which, as pillars(栋梁) of society, is something they deserve.Sixty five percent of netizens opposed Hai, believing that training blue collar workers is a task for tradeschools, as it would be a waste of time and money forstudents to pay high tuition fees to attend universityto end up with a blue collar job.Still others said universities should focus on theneeds of society, and if various schools are responsible for different tasks, and then students ofall levels can be trained to meet the needs of society. 68.According to the Vice President Hai, what’s the most important task of university education?A passing on the theoretical educationB training well—educated scholars and managersC training practically skilled workersD training white-collar workers69.

As you can see from the chart,…70 percent of those polled in a survey, held in Guangzhou, Shanghai and Beijing, claimed to have dreamed of winning a fortune of 5 million yuan. About80 percent of those polled in Guangzhou had had sucha dream, while the number in Shanghai and Beijing is60 percent respectively.The explanation for the phenomenon involves several factors. First of all, more and more peopleregard personal wealth as a positive thing. In addition, as the market economy and the living standards of thepeople improve in China, people find themselves in greater need of money to deal with all kinds of expenses. As the survey shows, if they win a big lottery, 81.3%of people would buy a new house, 61.9% would buy a car, and 61.7% would save the money for their kids’education. And a great part of people would put the money in the bank or use it for investment or touring.In my opinion, the desire for money is not the bad thing. Actually, it may push many people to work hard and thus to contribute to the national progress.。
