(题目序号仿新高考I卷阅读理解D篇)Passage 1(2023秋·辽宁沈阳高三校联考期末)What may well be the oldest metal coins in the world have been identified at an ancient abandoned city known as Guanzhuang in China. Like many Bronze Age(青铜时代)coins from the region, they were cast in the shape of spades(铲)with finely carved handles. These ancient coins existed during an in-between period between barter(以物易物)and money, when coins were a novel concept, but everybody knew that agricultural tools were valuable.Reading about this incredible discovery, I kept thinking about the way modern people represent computer networks by describing machines as having “addresses”, like a house. We also talk about one computer using a “port” to send information to another computer, as if the data were a floating boat with destination. It’s as if we are in the Bronze Age of information technology, grasping desperately for real-world reference to transform our civilization.Now consider what happened to spade coins. Over centuries. metalworkers made these coins into moreabstract shapes. Some became almost human figures. Others’ handles were reduced to small half-circles. As spade coins grew more abstract. people carved them with number values and the locations where they were made. They became more like modern coins, flat and covered in writing. Looking at one of these later pieces, you would have no idea that they were once intended to look like a spade.This makes me wonder if we will develop an entirely new set of symbols that allow us to interact with our digital information more smoothly.Taking spade coins as our guide, we can guess that far-future computer networks will no longer contain any recognizable references to houses. But they still might bring some of the ideas we associate with home to our mind. In fact, computer networks — if they still exist at all — are likely to be almost the indispensable part of our houses and cities, their sensors inset(嵌入)with walls and roads. Our network addresses might actually be the same as our street addresses. If climate change leads to floods, our mobile devices might look more like boats than phones, assisting us to land.My point is that the metaphors(比喻)of the information age aren’t random. Mobile devices do offer us comfort after a long day at work. In some sense, our desire to settle on the shores of data lakes could change the way we understand home, as well as how we build computers. So as we cast our minds forward, we have to think about what new abstractions will go along with our information technology. Perhaps the one thing we count on is that humans will still appreciate the comforts of home.32.Why were many Bronze Age coins made into the shape of a spade?A. These coins also served as agricultural tools.B. This stylish design made the coins valuable.C. A lot of emphasis was put on agriculture.D. The handles made the coins easily exchanged.33.Why does the author relate computers to spade coins?A. To show they both used to be new concepts when first invented.B. To highlight their same importance in our civilizational transformation.C. To suggest computers will experience dramatic changes as coins did.D. To explain abstract digital worlds are different from concrete coins.34.What does the underlined word “indispensable” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Flexible.B. Wasteful.C. Essential.D. Alternative.35.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. How Agriculture Loses to Digital IndustryB. What Coins and Computers Bring UsC. What Bronze Age and Information Age Have In CommonD. What Ancient Money Tells Us About the Future Digital WorldPassage 2(2023秋·天津市天津中学高三期末)When I was young, a friend and I came up with a “big” plan to make reading easy. The idea was to boil down great books to a sentence each. “Moby-Dick” by American writer HermanMelville, for instance, was reduced to: “A whale of a tale about the one that got away.” As it turned out, the joke was on us. How could a single sentence convey the essence(精髓)of a masterpiece with over five hundred pages?Blinkist, a website and an app, now summarizes nonfiction titles in the form of quick takes labeled “blinks.” The end result is more than one sentence, but not by much. Sarah Bakewell’s “At the Existentialist Café” is broken into 11 screens of information; Michelle Obama’s “Becoming” fills 13.Blinkist has been around since 2012. It calls its summaries “15-minute discoveries” to indicate how long it takes to read a Blinkist summary. “Almost none of us,” the editors assure us, “have the time to read everything we’d like to read.” Well, yes, of course, “So many books, so little time,” declares a poster I once bought at a book market. But I judge the quality of someone’s library by the books he or she has yet to read.That’s because a book is something we ought to live with, rather than speed through and categorize. It offers an experience as real as any other. The point of reading a book is not accumulating information, or at least not that alone. The most essential aspect is the communication between writer and reader. The idea behind Blinkist, however, is the opposite: Reading can be, should be, measured by the efficient uptake(吸收)of key ideas. No, no, no. What’s best about reading books is its inefficiency.When reading a book, we need to dive in, let it take over us, demand something of us, teach us what it can. Blinkist is instead a service that changes books for people who don’t, in fact, want to read. A 15-minute summary misses the point of reading; speed-reading with the app isn’t reading at all.32.What does the underlined part “the joke was on us” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. We were actually joking.B. We were laughed at by others.C. We were underestimating ourselves.D. We were just embarrassing ourselves.33.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. What Blinkist is.B. Why Blinkist is popular.C. How to use Blinkist.D. Where you can use Blinkist.34.What is mentioned as a problem about reading in paragraph 3?A. There are few new books of quality.B. Many books are hard to understand.C. People do not have enough time to read.D. People do not like reading as much as before.35.What is an ideal pattern of reading according to the author?A. Obtaining key ideas efficiently.B. Further confirming our beliefs.C. Accumulating in formation quickly.D. Deeply involving ourselves in books.Passage 3(2023春·河北高三联考)Even though people have been paralyzed(瘫痪的)playing sports like rugby and football, extreme sports take the whole ordeal(磨难)to the next level. Sports like downhill cycling are very dangerous because one would be going downhill, over rocky or dirt zone, through forests, even at potentially deadly speeds. A slip up could be your downfall.Nobody who gets into extreme sports goes with the desire to do harm to themselves. With that, athletes train for years and years before they attempt anything extreme. To most people, extreme sports are extreme simply because they take more skill than what an average person has. An athlete with skill and training makes an extremething become a daily routine. That does not wipe out the danger, but it greatly reduces it.Even when there is a lot of skill involved, things might not go the athlete’s way, not at all. Luck and circumstances have a lot to do with how things develop, whether above 8000 meters or in a wood, going downhill. In some places, crossing the street is an extreme sport, considering how wild traffic can get.Some view parkour—the sports of running, jumping and climbing under, around and through buildings — as an extreme sport, while it is more of a life philosophy, where the athlete does not have to do anything remotely dangerous. Free soloing, which means climbing a rock or ice face without safety gear, is absolutely deadly, where one slip means almost certain death, depending on the height, of course. Skateboarding is relatively safe, but if you constantly find ridiculous places to practice on, like the fence of a bridge, then things can get very complicated. The extreme part depends on the athlete.To summarize, yes, extreme sports are dangerous, but the danger depends on the athlete, their choice of sport, direction in which they take it, as well as the circumstances. Some things are out of our reach of control, while others we can influence through exercise and healthier risk choices.32.Why is downhill cycling mentioned in Paragraph 1?A. To call for attention to extreme sports.B. To introduce the origin of extreme sports.C. To illustrate the danger of extreme sports.D. To show the complexity of the extreme sports.33.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about regarding extreme sports?A. Extreme sports differ from one another.B. Skill matters a lot in maintaining safety.C. Athlete’s luck is a key factor that influences safety.D. Extreme sports are more dangerous than regular sports.34.Which would best describe the author’s attitude towards the danger of extreme sports?A. Doubtful.B. Objective.C. Intolerant.D. Uninterested.35.Which of the following is the best title of the text?A. Do Extreme Sports Test Your Courage?B. Why Should Extreme Sports Be Banned?C. Why Do We Love Extreme Sports so Much?D. Are Extreme Sports Really That Dangerous?Passage 4(2023·福建漳州统考三模)This month, the Internet was flooded with wonderful digital art portraits, thanks to the work of the latest artificial intelligence-assisted application to go viral: Lensa. Users uploaded their photographs to the App and then—for a small fee—it used AI to transform their profile pictures into, say, a magical warrior princess version of themselves, in no time at all.This year has seen a breakthrough for AI-driven image generators, which are now better than ever in quality, speed and affordability. If that sounds great to you, you might not be one of the millions of humans whose livelihoods depend on being able to exchange those skills for money.Some artists predicted that a computer would recreate the aura of a masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci in the near future. As long as there are enough data for the AI to train itself, it can copy numerous masterpieces just in several minutes. It seems unavoidable that a large number of artists would lose their jobs.“I see it less as a threat and more of an opportunity,” the UK-based illustrator Michelle Thompson said, adding, “Like everything else, there will always be artists who can use the tools better.”These tools are only as good as the data sets they are trained on. Human imagination, on the other hand, has no limit. For Dryhurst, an artist from Germany, AI models “could attempt to make a pale version of something we did years ago”, but that “doesn’t account for what we might do next”.The kind of artificial intelligence we might imagine replacing artists—an entirely autonomous creative robot—does not yet exist, but it is coming. And as AI becomes more universal, artists, illustrators and designerswill ultimately be set apart not by if, but by how, they use the technology.32.Why does the author mention Lensa in Paragraph 1?A. To recommend the new App.B. To inform latest news.C. To lead in the AI topic.D. To introduce its new function.33.What is Michelle Thompson’s attitude towards AI?A. Concerned.B. Favorable.C. Unclear.D. Critical.34.What might be a weakness of AI in creating art works?A. Accuracy.B. Diversity.C. Creativity.D. Efficiency.35.Which can be the best title for the text?A. Is AI coming into our daily life?B. Can AI copy masterpieces of great artists?C. Shall we welcome new AI technology?D. Will AI replace artists in the future?Passage 5(2023·福建福州统考二模)In August, Jason M. Allen’s piece “Theatre D’opéra Spatial”-which he created with Al image generator Midjourney -won first place in the emerging artist division’s “digital arts photography” category at the Colorado State Fair Fine Arts Competition. The definition for the category states that digital art refers to works that use “digital technology as part of the creative process”.Allen’s award-winning image has led to debates about what, exactly, it means to be an artist and whether AI can truly make art. “It felt bad for the exact same reason we don’t let robots participate in the Olympics, “ one Twitter user wrote. ”This is the literal definition of ‘pressed a few buttons to make a digital art piece’, “ another tweeted.Yet while Allen didn’t use a paintbrush, there was plenty of work involved, he said. First, he played around with phrasing that led Midjourney to generate images of women in elegant dresses and space helmets, in an attempt to mix Victorian-style costuming with space themes. Over time, with many slight changes to his written prompt(提示符), he created 900 different versions of what led to his final image. Then he improved its resolution through Gigapixel AI and finally had the images printed.Allen is glad the debate over whether AI can be used to make art is attracting so much attention. “Rather than hating on the technology, we need to recognize that it’s a powerful tool and use it for good so we can all moveforward, ” Allen said.Cal Duran, one of the judges for the competition, said that while Allen’s piece included a mention of AI, he didn’t realize that when judging it. Still, he sticks by his decision to award it first place. “I think the AI technology may give more opportunities to people who may not find themselves artists in the conventional way, ” he said.32.Why has Jason’s work led to debates?A. It was a copy of a photograph.B. He challenged the older artists.C. It was created with the help of AI.D. He broke the rule of the competition.33.What can best describe Allen’s creating process?A. Cooperative.B. Energy-consuming.C. Straightforward.D. Imagination-lacking.34.What can we learn about AI from the last paragraph?A. It is a double-edged sword.B. It attracts conventional artists.C. It strikes art judges as no surprise.D. It may open a new world to artists.35.What is the text mainly about?A. A trend to be AI artists.B. An AI-generated art contest.C. Responses to a winning AI artwork.D. Curiosity about an image generator.Passage 6(2023·湖北武汉高三统考)It’s no surprise that Jennifer Senior’s insightful magazine cover story “I love My Children, I Hate My Life” is arousing much chatter — nothing gets people talking like the suggestion that bringing up a child is not a completely fulfilling, life-enriching experience. Rather than concluding that children make parents either happy or miserable, Senior suggests we need to redefine happiness: instead of thinking of it as something that can be measured by moment-to-moment joy, we should consider being happy as a past-tense condition. Even though the day-to-day experience of raising kids can be extremely hard, Senior writes that “the very things that in the moment damage our moods can later be sources of intense content and delight.”The magazine cover showing an attractive mother holding a cute baby is hardly the only Madonna-and-child image on newsstands this week. There are also stories about newly adoptive—and newly single-mom Sandra Bullock, as well as the usual “Jennifer Aniston is pregnant” news. Practically every week features at least one celebrity mom, or mom-to-be, smiling on the newsstands.In a society that so persistently celebrates procreation(繁衍), is it any wonder that admitting you regret having children is equivalent to admitting you support kitten-killing? It doesn’t seem quite fair, then, to compare the regrets of parents to the regrets of the children. Unhappy parents rarely are encouraged to wonder if they shouldn’t have had kids, but unhappy childless folks are bothered with the message that children are the single most important thing in the world: obviously their misery must be a direct result of the wide-open baby-size holes in their lives.Of course, the image of parenthood that celebrity magazines like US Weekly and People present is hugely unrealistic, especially when the parents are single mothers like Bullock. According to several studies concluding that parents are less happy than childless couples, single parents are the least happy of all. No shock there, considering how much work it is to raise a kid without a partner to lean on; yet to hear celebrities tell it, raising akid on their “own”(read: with round-the-clock help)is a piece of cake.It is hard to imagine that many people are stupid enough to want children because it looks so fantastic — most adults understand that a baby is not a haircut. But it is interesting to wonder if the images we see every week of stress-free, happiness-enhancing parenthood aren’t in some small, subconscious way contributing to our own dissatisfactions with the actual experience, in the same way that a small part of us hoped getting a part of the way celebrities live might make us look just a little bit like them.32.Jennifer Senior suggests in her article that raising a child can bring _______.A. very temporary delightB. great enjoyment in progressC. happiness in one’s memoryD. concern over love and hatred33.Paragraph 2 is intended to show that _______.A. celebrity moms are a permanent source for gossip.B. single mothers with babies deserve greater attention.C. news about pregnant celebrities is entertaining.D. having children is highly valued by the public.34.According to the passage, those childless folks _______.A. are less likely to be satisfied with their lifeB. are largely ignored by the media.C. fail to fulfill their social responsibilities.D. are constantly exposed to criticism.35.Which of the following can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Having children contributes little to the glamour of celebrity moms.B. Celebrity moms have influenced our attitude towards child raising.C. Having children intensifies our dissatisfaction with life.D. We sometimes neglect the happiness from child raising.Passage 7(2023春·广东省广东实验中学高三校考)Early fifth-century philosopher St. Augustine famously wrote that he knew what time was unless someone asked him. Albert Einstein added another wrinkle when he theorized that time varies depending on where you measure it. Today’s state-of-the-art atomic(原子的)clocks have proven Einstein right. Even advanced physics can’t decisively tell us what time is, because the answer depends on the question you’re asking.Forget about time as an absolute. What if, instead of considering time in terms of astronomy,we related time to ecology? What if we allowed environmental conditions to set the tempo(节奏)of human life? We’re increasingly aware of the fact that we can’t control Earth systems with engineering alone, and realizing that we need to moderate(调节)our actions if we hope to live in balance. What if our definition of time reflected that?Recently, I conceptualized a new approach to timekeeping that’s connected to circumstances on our planet, conditions that might change as a result of global warming. We’re now building a clock at the Anchorage Museum that reflects the total flow of several major Alaskan rivers, which are sensitive to local and global environmental changes. We’ve programmed it to match an atomic clock if the waterways continue to flow at their present rate. If the rivers run faster in the future on average, the clock will get ahead of standard time. If they run slower, you’ll seethe opposite effect.The clock registers both short-term irregularities and long-term trends in river dynamics. It’s a sort of observatory that reveals how the rivers are behaving from their own temporal frame(时间框架), and allows us to witness those changes on our smartwatches or phones. Anyone who opts to go on Alaska Mean River Time will live in harmony with the planet. Anyone who considers river time in relation to atomic time will encounter a major imbalance and may be motivated to counteract it by consuming less fuel or supporting greener policies.Even if this method of timekeeping is novel in its particulars, early agricultural societies also connected time to natural phenomena. In pre-Classical Greece, for instance, people“corrected”official calendars by shifting dates forward or backward to reflect the change of season. Temporal connection to the environment was vital to their survival. Likewise, river time and other timekeeping systems we’re developing may encourage environmental awareness.When St. Augustine admitted his inability to define time, he highlighted one of time’s most noticeable qualities: Time becomes meaningful only in a defined context. Any timekeeping system is valid, and each is as praiseworthy as its purpose.32.What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A. Timekeeping is increasingly related to nature.B. Everyone can define time on their own terms.C. The qualities of time vary with how you measure it.D. Time is a major concern of philosophers and scientists.33.The author raises three questions in Paragraph 2 mainly to _______.A. present an assumptionB. evaluate an argumentC. highlight an experimentD. introduce an approach34.What can we learn from this passage?A. Those who do not go on river time will live an imbalanced life.B. New ways of measuring time can help to control Earth systems.C. Atomic time will get ahead of river time if the rivers run slower.D. Modern technology may help to shape the rivers’ temporal frame.35.What can we infer from this passage?A. It is crucial to improve the definition of time.B. A fixed frame will make time meaningless.C. We should live in harmony with nature.D. History is a mirror reflecting reality.Passage 8(2023·广东汕头统考一模)“Medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits, and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. ” This is dedicated to my first-year self four years ago, who was addicted to getting good grades, and failed to seek the happiness found in everything else that college has to offer.Like some people, I grew up with a family that valued academics over all else, who gave you a little extra love when you were doing great in your classes, and took it away when you didn’t. As a result, my self-worth became tied to my academic success. As an international student, I sometimes felt our parents didn’t quite understand the heavy academic weight.There is a difference between trying to always better yourself for yourself, and simply putting too much on your plate until you burn out from attempting to live up to certain expectations. We should all strive to do the former, but unfortunately our mindsets have been always wired to follow the latter.I used to believe school killed the creative spirit inside all of us, but as I get older and further into my academic career, I find that it is we who make the choice to kill that creative spirit. I am definitely not saying that you should throw your GPA out of the window and go painting all day. However, we should all try to develop a long-sighted perspective on how we want to shape our lives. Take some classes on topics that you’re genuinely interested in learning about, not just passing. Join clubs or work on projects that resonate with you and push you beyond your boundaries. And most of all, accept the fact that failure and loss are sometimes inevitable in life.I promise you, when you look back at these four years, you will not remember the good grades or the bad grades, but you will hold in your memory the connections you made with people, the things that inspired you to create and the times you learned something special. And so I ask you now, what do you want to get out of college?32.Who is the author of the passage?A. A professor.B. A freshman.C. A parent.D. A graduate.33.What did the author’s parents stress most on his college life?A. Seeking happiness.B. Getting good grades.C. Building self-worth.D. Developing various interests.34.What is bettering ourselves for according to the author?A. To be a better self.B. To realize our dreams.C. To push our boundaries.D. To live up to others’ expectations.35.Which of the following may the author probably agree with?A. Academic growth helps to promote creativity.B. Students themselves have a say in their hobbies.C. Failures can be avoided with more efforts put in.D. School is to blame for killing students’ creativity.Passage 9(2023·山东济南统考一模)According to a study done by University of Michigan, shopping to reduce stress was 40 times more effective at giving people a sense of control and shoppers were three times less sad than those only looking at items.More than half of the 1,000 consumers surveyed by Credit Karma, head researcher of the study, said they have shopped to deal with feelings of stress or depression. About 48 percent of men and 31 percent of women who have stress shopping said they had purchased alcohol when stressed. About 82 percent of women spend on clothing compared to 52 percent of men. Women also lead shopping for jewellery, 42 percent, compared to 22 percent for men.In some sense, stress shopping can actually help you live a healthier life by making sure that your blood pressure is lowered. The survey found 82 percent had only positive feelings about their purchases and that the positive mood was long-lasting. However, stress shopping, for many, could grow into a drive that uses up money, causes conflict, and therefore adds great stress to life.Despite the in-time joy from purchases, stress shopping never proves a long-lasting cure to stress or depression. Actually it needs to be avoided anyhow. Whether you’re purchasing Christmas presents or buying groceries having the items you need written down will provide you with brightness while shopping. Reward yourself for sticking to your list and you’ll be more likely to commit to it.In addition always think about what you struggle with most financially. Do you spend too much money at the mall? Eating out? Vacations? Make a list of where your money is going and take necessary steps to resist your desire. For example, if you spend too much money on dining out on weekends, stuff your cupboard with food on Friday. So you’ll be more likely to stay in and cook. And you need to give up the need to keep up with others. Everyone’s financial situation is different and comparison may lead to debt and dissatisfaction with what you already have.32.Why does the author mention those numbers in Paragraph 2?A. To support an idea.B. To attract readers.C. To call for actions.D. To introduce a topic.33.Which of the following may help deal with stress shopping?A. Stimulating desires.B. Recording spendings.C. Turning to medicines.D. Comparing with others.34.What is the author’s attitude to stress shopping?A. Unclear.B. Doubtful.C. Objective.D. Negative.35.What is a suitable title for the text?A. Does shopping benefit us?B. More stressed, women or men?C. Should we compare with others?D. Can stress shopping reduce stress?Passage 10(2023秋·山东青岛高三统考期末)“Practice makes perfect” is a very popular expression. However, can we take this saying literally? Many scientific studies have sought to either prove or disprove this idea.One popular theory is that if a person practises for at least 10,000 hours, they will reach “perfection”, or become an expert in their field. This theory was made famous by Malcolm Gladwell in his 2008 best selling book, Outliers: The Story of Success. He mentioned the music group The Beatles and Microsoft co-creator Bill Gates. Although they all seemed to have lots of natural talent, they also clearly put in over 10,000 hours of practice before they became successful.Gladwell’s work was largely based on research done by Anders Ericsson, who argued that Gladwell misinterpreted his research. Firstly, Ericsson stated that 10,000 hours was an average figure. Some people needed far fewer than 10,000 hours, and others many more. More importantly, Ericsson said that just practising a lot was not enough; the type and quality of practice was also essential. He went on to explain the importance of “deliberate practice”, which is when a person practises a specific part of a skill in depth rather than practising a skill as a。

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.（A）Being alone in outer space can be frightening. That is one reason why astronauts on solo（单独的）space flight were given plenty of work to keep them 45 . They were also in constant communication with people on the earth, 46 , being with people from whom you cannot get away might be even harder than being alone. This is what happens on long submarine（潜水艇）voyages. It will also happen on 47 space flights in the future. Will there be special problems of adjustment under such conditions?Scientists have studied the reactions of men to one another during long submarine voyages. They have found that the longer the voyage lasts, the more serious the problem of 48 is. When men are 49 together for a long period, they begin to feel uneasy. Everyone has little habits of speaking and behaving that are ordinarily acceptable. In the limited space over a long period of time,however, these little habits may become very 50 .Apparently, although no one wants to be 51 all the time, everyone needs some degree of privacy. When people are enclosed together, they are in what is called a stress situation. That means that they are under an unusual amount of 52 or stress.People who are well-adjusted are able to 53 stress situations better than others. That is one reason why so much care is taken in 54 our astronauts. These men undergo a long period of testing and training. One of the things tested is their behaviour under stress.45．A．tiredB．asleepC．consciousD．busy46．A．So farB．After allC．HoweverD．Therefore47．A．longB．fastC．dangerousD．direct 48．A．fuelB．entertainmentC．adjustmentD．health 49．A．shut upB．held upC．brought upD．picked up 50．A．pleasingB．annoyingC．commonD．valuable 51．A．noisyB．aloneC．personalD．sociable52．A．emphasisB．conflictC．powerD．pressure53．A．handleB．createC．affectD．investigate54．A．becomingB．choosingC．orderingD．promoting（B）One topic is rarely mentioned in all the talk of improving standards in our schools: the almost complete failure of foreign-language teaching. As a French graduate who has taught formore than twenty-five years, I believe I have some idea of why the failure is so total. 55 the faults already found out in the education system as a whoie-such as child-centred learning, the “discovery”method, and the low expectations by teachers of pupils-there have been several serious 56 which have a direct effect on language teaching.The first is the removal from the curriculum（课程）of the thorough teaching of English57 . Pupils now do not know a verb from a noun, the subject of a sentence from its object, or the difference between the past, present, or future.Another important error is mixed-ability teaching, or teaching in ability groups so 58 that the most able pupils are 59 and are bored while the least able are lost and 60 Bored. Strangely enough, few head teachers seem to be in favour of mixed-ability school football teams.Progress depends on memory, and pupils start to forget immediately they stop having 61 lessons. This is why many people who attended French lessons at school, even those who got good grades, have forgotten it a few years later. 62 they never need it, they do not practice it.Most American schools have accepted what is inevitable and 63 modem languages, even Spanish, from the curriculum. Perhaps it is time for Britaio to do the same, and stop 64 resources on a subject which few pupils want or need. 55．A．Due toB．In addition toC．Instead ofD．In spite of56．A．errorsB．situationsC．systemsD．methods57．A．vocabularyB．cultureC．grammarD．literature58．A．wideB．similarC．separateD．unique 59．A．kept outB．turned downC．help backD．left behind 60．A．surprisingly B．individuallyC．equallyD．regular 61．A．extraB．traditionalC．basicD．regular 62．A．AlthoughB．BecauseC．UntilD．Unless63．A．restoredB．absorbedC．prohibitedD．withdrawn64．A．wastingB．focusingC．exploitingD．sharingIV．Reading ComprehensionDirections：Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.（A）What do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? How about an ice-Cream taster?Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste icecream. Just ask John Harrison, an “Official Taste Tester”for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufacturers to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream –as well as for developing over 75 flavors （味道）.Some people think that it would be casy to do this job; after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No –there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food –science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this “cool”field.In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses 60 ice-cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12 F. Harrison explains, “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating ice-cream soup.”While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance. “Tasting begins with the eyes,”he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, “Does the product have the colour expected from that flavor?”Next it’s time to taste!Continuing to think up new ideas、try out new flavors、and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrisonbusy but happy –working at once cool job.65．what is John Harrison’s job?A．An official.B．An ice-cream taster.C．A chemist.D．An ice-cream manufacturer.66．According to John Harrison, to be qualified in the “cool field”, it is helpful to .A．keep a diary of workB．have a degree in related subjectsC．have new ideas every dayD．find out new flavors each day67．What does Harrison do first when testing ice cream?A．He stirs the ice cream.B．He examines the colour of the ice cream.C．He tastes the flavor of the ice cream.D．He lets the ice cream warm up.68．Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?A．Tasting with EyesB．Flavors of Ice CreamC．John Harrison’s LifeD．One Cool Job（B）（You may read the questions first.）69．The Fresh Water series at 9 PM .A．explores the lakes, rivers and the creatures in themB．is devoted to the freshwater creatures in the worldC．explains the relationship among inhabitants on the earthD．focuses on the deepest river on the planet70．The phrase “stow away”most probably means“”A．hide secretlyB．talk excitedlyC．operate easilyD．guide successfully71．A mystery story adapted from Agatha Christie’s novel will be shown on .A．BBC1B．BBC2C．ITV1D．Channel 4（C）Mail carriers will be delivering some good news and some bad news this week.The bad news: Stamp prices are expected to rise 2 cents in May to 41 cents, the Postal Regulatory Commission announced yesterday. The good news: With the introduction of a “forever stamp,”it may be the last time Americans have to use annoying 2-or 3-cent stamps to make up postage diffcrences.Beginning in May, people would be able to purchase the stamps in booklets of 20 at the regular rate of a first-elass stamp. As the name implies, “forever stamps”will keep their first-class mailing value forever, even when the postage rate goes up.The new “forever stamp”is the United States Postal Service’（USPS）answer to the complaints about frequent rate increases. The May increase will be the fifth in a decade. Postal rates have risen because of inflation （通货膨胀），competition from online billpaying, and the rising costs of employee benefits, including healthcare, says Mark Saunders, a Spokesman for USPS.The USPS expects some financial gain from sales of the “forever stamp”and the savings from not printing as many 2-or 3-cent stamps. “It’s not your grandfather’s stamp,”says Mr. Saunders. “It could be your great-grandchildren’s stamp.”Other countries, including Canada, England, and Finland use similar stamps.Don Schilling, who has collected stamps for 50 years, he’s interested in the public’s reaction. “This is an entirely new class of stamps,”Mr. Schilling says. He adds that he’ll buy the stamps because he will be able to use them for a long period of time, not because they could make him rich-the volume printed will be too large for collectors. “We won’t be able to send our kids to college on these,”he says, laughing.The USPS board of governors has yet o accept the Postal Regulatory Commission’s decision, but tends to follow its recommendations. No plans have been announced yet for the design of the stamps.72．The main purpose of introducing a “forever stamp”is .A．to reduce the cost of printing 2-or 3-cent stampsB．to help save the consumers’cost on first-class mailingC．to respond to the complaints about rising postal ratesD．to compete with online bill paying73．By saying “It could be your great-grand children’s stamp”, Mr Saunders means that forever stamps .A．could be collected by one’s great-grandchildrenB．might be very precious in great-grandchildren’s handsC．might have been inherited from one’s great-grandfathers D．could be used by one’s great-grandchildren even decades later74．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．The investment in forever stamps will bring adequate reward.B．America will be the first country to issue forever stamps.C．The design of the “forever stamp”remains to be revealed.D．2-or 3-cent stamps will no longer be printed in the future. 75．What can be concluded from the passage?A．With forever stamps, there will be no need to worry about rate changes.B．Postal workers will benefit most form the sales of forever stamps.C．The inflation has become a threat to the sales of first-class stamps.D．New interest will be aroused in collecting forever stamps.（D）The traditional tent cities at festivals such as Glastonbury may never be the same again. In a victory of green business that is certain to appeal to environmentally-aware music-lovers, a design student is to receive financial support to produce eco-friendly tens made of cardboard that can be recycled after the bands and the crowds have gone home.Major festivals such as Glastonbury throw away some 10,000 abandoned tents at the end of events each year. For his final year project at the University of the West of England, James Dunlop came up with a material that can be recycled. And to cope with the British summer, the cardboard has been made waterproof.Taking inspiration from a Japanese architect, who has usedcardboard to make big buildings including churches, Mr Dunlop used cardboard material for his tents, which he called Myhabs.The design won an award at the annual New Designers Exhibition after Mr Dunlop Graduated from his product design degree and he decided to try to turn it into a business.To raise money for the idea, he toured the City’s private companies which fund new businesses and found a supporter in the finance group Mint. He introduced his idea to four of Mint’s directors and won their support. Mint has committed around ￡500,000 to MyHab and taken a share of 30 per cent in Mr Dunlop’s business. The first Myhabs should be tested at festivals this summer, before being marketed fully next year.Mr Dunlop said that the design, which accommodates two people, could have other uses, such as for disaster relief and housing for the London Olympics.For music events, the cardboard houses will be ordered online and put up at the sites by the Myhab team before the festival-goers arrive and removed by the company afterwards, They can be Personalized and the company will offer reductions on the expense if people agree to sell exterior（外部的）advertising space.The biggest festivals attract tens of thousands of participants,with Glastonhury having some 150,000 each year. Altogether there are around 100 annual music festivals where people camp in the UK. The events are becoming increasingly environmentally conscious. 76．“Eco-friendly tents”in paragraph 1 refer to tents .A．economically desirableB．favorable to the environmentC．for holding music performancesD．designed for disaster relief77．Mr Dunlop established his business .A．independently with an interest-free loan from MintB．with the approval of the City’s administrationC．in partnership with a finance groupD．with the help of a Japanese architect78．It is implied in the passage that .A．the weather in the UK. Is changeable in summerB．most performances at British festivals are given in the open airC．the cardboard tents produced by Mr Dunlop can beuser-tailoredD．cardboard tents can be easily put up and removed by users 79．The passage is mainly concerned with .A．an attempt at developing recyclable tentsB．some efforts at making full use of cardboardsC．an unusual success of a graduation projectD．the effects of using cardboard tents on music festivals（E）Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.An interview with Wynton Marsalis, a noted jazz musician80．There were the older jazz musicians who hung around our house when I was young. I saw how much they practiced, how serious they were about their art. I knew then I had to work just as hard if I wanted to succeed. Of course, my father inspired me a lot, and many teachers took the time to nurture my latent and the talents of other students in our school.81．Yes. We’ve done such a poor job with music education because, as a society, we haven’t maintained the kind of education that a true artist and musician needs. Young people haven’t been able to equate romance and talent with music. For instance, most of the people who make it in the music industry today have to look good. How they sound is secondary. Sarah Vaughan, Bessie Smith, Ella Fitzgerald —those big, romantic queens of jazz music wouldn’t make it in today’s music industry, and that’s a shame. We need to teach youngpeople about the alternatives.82．Around the would people make music that, if you listen carefully to it, sounds a little like the cadence of their language. I’d call it folk music. When I’m away from home, I make a point of listening to regional folk music, not what’s on the radio.83．The same music is on the radio all over the world, and the American sound is overwhelming. Even the pop music that’s produced and created in foreign countries has that American beat, that underscore of funk. As a musician, I’m not interested in hearing recycled versions of the same genre over and over. Any music that doesn’t have a development section just isn’t interesting to me.84．The music press has so much to introduce these days, and jazz is just a small fraction of it. Because some people are intimidated by jazz, they don’t cover it unless it’s a big name. New jazz musicians don’t get much of break. A lot of editors don’t say anything about jazz these days unless it’s Marsalis. That’s a shame. What VH1 is doing with their Save the Music campaign is phenomenal. They’re gettingall these instruments out to needy kids. It’s the kind of thing all networks should be doing.第Ⅱ卷（共45分）I．TranslationDirections:：Translate the following sentences into English using the words given in the brackets.1．他们的新房子离学校很远。
