She wants me to be her friend and nobody else’s. You talk to Marcy. You tell her that I want to be her friend, but I can have other friends, too!”Oh! I looked at her for a few moments, wondering how I got into this mess (困境), when suddenly an idea came to me.Picking up two baskets from the living room, I explained, “When everyone is born, he or she has a little basket. This little one here is yours. The big one is mine. As you grow, so does the basket. You can see your little basket is inside mine because when you were born, there were too many things you couldn’t do for yourself. I did everything you couldn’t do on your own.”She nodded.“Well, as you grew older and began to do som e things on your own, I began placing a few more things in your basket. When you learned to tie your shoes, that went in your basket.”She said softly, “I can tie my own shoes.”“Right. As you grow older, there will be more and more things you must do on your own.” As I spoke, I gradually took her basket out of mine and handed it to her. “You will finally carry your own basket with things only you can do.”She looked up at me and said, “I understand. There are some things that I have to do for m yself because they are in my basket.”25. What was Sara’s problem?A. She didn’t have a basket.B. She didn’t want her own basket.C. She couldn’t deal with her friendship.D. Her mother was too hard on her.26. What did the autho r feel when she heard her daughter’s problem?A. Angry.B. Crazy.C. Proud.D. Helpless.27. We can infer that Sara ________.A. would talk to Marcy herselfB. wouldn’t make friends with KathyC. was too young to deal with anythingD. managed to persuade her mother to help her28. The baskets mentioned in the passage refer to ________.A. gifts given by God when everyone is bornB. something that people use to keep vegetablesC. growing abilities as you grow upD. friendship that needs repairingCAs computers become more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input (输入) Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes（笔画）of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more wide-spread among university students. Almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer. All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.It’s faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that’s why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education.“When I’m writing with a pen, I find I often can’t remember how to write a character, though I feel I’m familiar with it.”“I’m not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.”Many students don’t feel this is something to worry about. Now that it’s more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, the headmaster of a famous primaryschool in the capital, said, “Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic （审美的）value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer’s emotion. Through one’s handwriting, people can get to know one’s th inking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them. ”To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory（必修的）and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.29. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. To Type or to Handwrite.B. The Importance of Handwriting and Typing.C. Writing by Computer Will Replace Writing by Hand.D. Practical and Aesthetic Value of Chinese Characters.30. The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because _____.A. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essaysB. they find it not easy to remember how to write a characterC. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and convenientlyD. computers have become a trend and fashion in China31. Which of the following statements is NOT true about advantages of handwriting?A. Handwriting contains the writer’s emotion.B. Handwriting can impress people well and build their self-confidence.C. The writer’s thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.D. Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.32. We can draw the conclusion from the passage that _____.A. more and more students will give up writing on a computerB. writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one dayC. the typing article better expresses one’s feelings and qualityD. more and more students will pay attention to handwritingDThe meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, uneasiness, or worry. Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable; thus efforts may be made to fill every gap(间隙) with conversation. Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person’s needs.Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops, what may be implied(暗示) is that the person wants the listener to think about what has been said before continuing. In these cultures, silence is a call for thinking.Other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with disagreements among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. For example, Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion. However, Mexicans may use silence when instructions (指示，命令) are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. In still another use, persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in authority.Nurses and other care-givers need to notice the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal worries their patients may be experiencing. Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient’s silence is not disturbed too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily.A nurse who understands the healing(治愈) value of silence can use this understandingto help in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures.33. Which of the following people might take silence as a call for careful thought?A. The Chinese.B. The French.C. The Mexicans.D. The Russians.34. What does the author advise nurses to do about silence?A. Let it continue as the patient pleases.B. Break it while treating patients.C. Evaluate its harm to patients.D. Make use of its healing effects.35. What may be the best title for the text?A. Sound and SilenceB. What It Means to Be SilentC. Silence to Native AmericansD. Speech Is Silver; Silence Is Gold第二节（共5小题；每小题2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处的最佳选项。

[中学联盟]湖北省宜昌市葛洲坝中学2018届高三11月阶段性检测英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读选择Must-read Books that Are Hitting the Big Screen This Year The Zookeeper’s Wife by Diane AckermanStarring: Jessica Chastain and Johan HeldenberghRelease Date: July 31, 2017This true story is both heartbreaking and heartwarming. Ackerman artfully retells the story of Jan and Zabinski and how they used their zoo to save over three hundred people from the Nazis. After their zoo was bombed, they managed to hide people in animal cages, giving animal names to their guests and human names to their animals. This is one story we truly hope lives up to the hope on film.The Lost City of Z by David GrannStarring: Sienna Miller and Robert PattinsonRelease Date: August 14,2017Looking for adventure? This story is just what you need. The book(and film) tells the tale of British explorer Percy Fawcett and how he ventured into the Amazon jungle in 1925, never to return. It's an enchanting mystery that we can’t wa it to see play out on screen.The Dinner by Herman KochStarring: Richard Gere and Rebecca HallRelease Date: October 5,2017We always say we'd do absolutely anything for our kids, right? The story begins with two couples politely, eating dinner together, avoiding a conversation about their children who have committed a horrific act. As the story goes on, you'll see just how far these parents will go to protect the ones they love.The Circle by Dave EggersStarring: Emma Watson and Patton OswaltRelease Date: November 28,2017A young woman, Mae, is hired to work for a powerful Internet company and Feels like she's hit the job jackpot. The facility is very advanced, lively, and a bit wild. Mae's story beginsas one of ambition but soon tums into a heart-racing story of suspense.1．Why did Jan and Zabinski put people in animal cages?A．To offer them living places B．To treat them as animalsC．To avoid being bombed D．To hide from the Nazis2．Who plays the role of a modern white-collar woman?A．Emma Watson B．Rebecca HallC．Sienna Miller D．Jessica Chastain3．When can you go to see the film if you enjoy adventure stories?A．In July B．In AugustC．In October D．In November4．Which of the following is related to parents' raising kids?A．The Zookeeper's Wife B．The Lost City of ZC．The Dinner D．The CircleChina used to be called the “Kingdom of Bicycles”, but since then, cars have taken over the country. There are too many vehicles and pedestrians in the street now, so the roads are crowded nearly all the time, and even going a few kilometers can take up to an hour, which can explain the fact that it’s very difficult to travel across major Chinese cities.Now, new apps that help people register and find bikes are being used more and more across cities like Beijing. The new apps that let people share bicycles are easing traffic, and reducing pollution. Cheng Li started using bike share services about six months ago. He said now he is using the car less and the bike more. For Zhang Jian, the bike share revolution makes him recollect the old days. “Now, when we’re riding home from work, especially in the evening, when it’s not rushed, it feels like we’re reliving the past,” Zhang said.However, there is now a lot of competition among bike share providers because of their popularity. Some providers are trying to flood the streets with bikes to be more visible. Sometimes there are so many bikes that they completely block the sidewalks. This has become a problem for city governments. It is not uncommon for bike users to leave bikes in the middle of the street or on the sidewalk. This blocks cars and people in already crowded cities.In Beijing’s southern district of Daxing, officials have been trying to fix the problem by seizing illegally parked bikes. VOA spoke to a woman wh o said, “Bike sharing is really convenient, but no one is taking care of the problem of illegally parked bikes.” Behind her wereseveral thousand seized bikes.Many people in China feel that bike shares are helping reduce the country’s transportation problems and polluted air. However, they also hope companies will do more to improve their service and avoid flooding the streets with bikes.5．Which is the cause of traffic jams in major Chinese cities?A．The booming of cars. B．Lack of bike share services.C．Poor road conditions. D．Lack of parking lots.6．What does the underlined word “recollect” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Step forward. B．Back off.C．Look back. D．Slide away.7．What does paragraph 3 mainly want to tell us about the bike shares?A．Their popularity. B．Their problems.C．Their competition. D．Their advantages.8．What do you think will be discussed about the bike shares in the following paragraph? A．They create bike revolution. B．They solve the traffic problems. C．They bring about polluted air. D．They need further improving.My grandmother Rosalind Einhorn was born exactly fifty-two years before I was, on August 28, 1917. Like many poor Jewish families in New York City, hers lived in a small, crowded apartment close to their relatives. Her parents, aunts and uncles addressed her male cousins by their given names, but she and her sister were referred to only as “Girlie”.During the Depression, my grandmother was pulled out of Morris High School to help support the household by sewing fabric flowers onto undergarments that her mother could resell for a tiny profit. No one in the community would have considered taking a boy out of school. A boy’s education was the family’s hope to move up the financial and social ladder. Education for girls, however, was less significant both financially, since they were unlikely to contribute to the family’s income, and culturally, since boys were expected to study the Torah while girls were expected to run a “proper home”. Luckily for my grandmother, a local t eacher insisted that her parents put her back into school. She went on not only to finish high school but to graduate from U.C．Berkeley.After college, “Girlie” worked selling pocketbooks and accessories at David’s Fifth Avenue. When she left her job to ma rry my grandfather, David’s had to hire four people toreplace her. Years later, when my grandfather’s paint business was struggling, she jumped in and took some of the hard steps he was unwilling to take, helping to save the family from financial ruin. She displayed her business ability again in her forties. After being diagnosed（诊断）with breast cancer, she beat it and then devoted herself to raising money for the clinic that treated her by selling some watches. Girlie ended up with a profit that Apple would envy. I have never met anyone with more energy and determination than my grandmother.When my grandmother had children of her own — my mother and her two brothers — she emphasized education for all of them. My mother attended the University of Pennsylvania. When she graduated in 1965 with a degree in French literature, she surveyed a workforce that she believed consisted of two career options for women: teaching or nursing. She chose teaching. She began a Ph. D．programme, got married, and then dropped out when she became pregnant with me. It was thought to be a sign of weakness if a husband needed his wife’s help to support their family, so my mother became a stay-at-home parent and an active volunteer. The centuries-old division of labor stood.Even though I grew up in a traditional home, my parents had the same expectations for me, my sister, and my brother. All the three of us were encouraged to do well in school, do equal routine tasks, and participate in after-school activities. We were all supposed to be athletic too. My brother and sister joined sports teams, but I was the kid who got picked last in gym, despite my athletic shortcomings. I was raised to believe that girls could do anything boys could do and that all career paths were open to me.When I arrived at college in the fall of 1987, my classmates of both genders seemed equally focused on academics. I don’t remember thinking about my future career differently from the male students. I also don’t remember any conversations about someday balancin g work and children. My friends and I assumed that we would have both. Men and women competed openly and aggressively with one another in classes, activities，and job interviews. Just two generations removed from my grandmother, the playing field seemed to be level.But more than twenty years after my college graduation, the world has not evolved nearly as much as I believed it would. Almost all of my male classmates work in professional settings. Some of my female classmates work full-time or part-time outside the home and just as many are stay-at-home mothers and volunteers like my mom. This mirrors the national trend. In comparison to their male counterparts（相同能力者）, highly trained women are scaling back and dropping out of the workforce in high numbers.9．Why were the writer’s grandma and her sisters called “Girlie”?A．They had not yet got their given names.B．They were highly valued by their elders.C．They shared apparent similarities in many ways.D．They were regarded as less important than boys.10．What conclusion can we draw about the writer’s grandmother?A．She was an extraordinarily able and tough woman.B．She was full of ideas for solving various problems.C．She benefited greatly from her family background.D．She had special ways of teaching her own children.11．By writing the passage the writer intends to reveal ________.A．the necessity of women’s educationB．the importance of women’s liberationC．the existence of gender discriminationD．the lives of three generations of womenGiven how valuable intelligence and automation (自动化) are, we will continue to improve our technology if we are at all able to. At a certain point, we will build machines that are smarter than we are. Once we have machines that are smarter than we are, they will begin to imp rove themselves. And then we risk what the mathematician IJ Good called an ‘‘intelligence explosion”. The process could get out of control.The concern is really that we will build machines that are much more competent than we are. And the slightest divergence (分歧) between their goals and our own could destroy us.Just think about how we relate to ants. We don’t hate them. We don’t go out of our way to harm them. In fact, sometimes we take pains not to harm them. We step over them on the sidewalk. But whenever their presence seriously conflicts with one of our goals, we will kill them without hesitation. The concern is that we will one day build machines that, whether they’re conscious or not, could treat us with similar disregard.The bare fact is that we will continue to improve our intelligent machines. We have problems that we desperately need to solve. So we will do this, if we can. The train is already out of the station, and there’s no brake to pull. If we build machines that are more intelligent than we are, they will very likely develop in ways that we can’t imagine, and exceed us in waysthat we can’t imagine.So imagine we hit upon a design of super intelligent AI that has no safety concerns. This machine would be the perfect labor-saving device. It can design the machine that can build the machine which can do any physical work, powered by sunlight, more or less for the cost of raw materials. So we’re talking about the end of human labour. We’re also talking about the end of most intellectual work. So what would apes like ourselves do in this circumstance?What would some nations do if they heard that some company in Silicon Valley was about to deploy a super intelligent AI? This machine would be capable of starting war, whether terrestrial or cyber, with unbelievable power.Given that the companies and governments building super intelligent AI are likely to perceive themselves as being in a race against all others, and that to win this race is to win the world, it seems likely that whatever is easier to do will get done first unless it is destroyed in the next moment.But the moment we admit that information processing is the source of intelligence, we have to admit that we are in the process of building some son of god. Now would be a good time to ma ke sure it’s a god we can live with.12．What message does Paragraph 3 convey?A．Intelligence and automation are very valuable.B．The improved machines will get away from us.C．The presence of machines does conflict with our goals.D．Future intelligent machines could treat us without mercy.13．Which of the following sayings has similar meaning with the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4?A．Time and tide wait for no man.B．Rome wasn’t built in a day.C．Tomorrow is another day.D．Shot arrows will not come back.14．How is the passage mainly developed?A．By making comparisons.B．By giving assumptions.C．By showing valid evidence.D．By analyzing statistics.15．Which of the following statements can best summarize the author’s viewpoint towards AI? A．Human beings will no doubt be destroyed by AI in the future.B．Super intelligent AI will put an end to human labour eventually.C．We should keep the development of AI within humans’ control.D．Human beings should stop the development of super intelligent AI.二、七选五What Type of College is Right for You?When deciding what colleges to apply for, you may feel stressed about what type of campus you want to live and study on. 16．Do you want to know everybody at your school, or are you looking for more of a college town experience where you meet new people every day?17．Are you looking for a liberal arts (文科) school or a more STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) focused college? Maybe you want to attend a school more specific to what you may want to do in the future, like a music or art based school. Another aspect or factor into your decision is the kinds of activities the college offers. 18．Once you start collecting a list of places you are thinking about, the next thing to do is to consult your college counselors and start your applications. When applying to college, make sure to get help and advice from the college counselors, who always have their doors open to keep students on track when it comes to the college process. 19．Keeping them up to date on how far along you are in the process will help the college counselors get their job done and make your application a success.Once those applications are in, the hardest part comes next: waiting. 20．As soon as the results come out, you will know which school is right for you, whether it is your top choice or something else down your list.A．The next step is finding what college suits you academically.B．They also invite students to email any question they may have.C．One of the first things that colleges look at is your past school record.D．This is also the time to reflect on which college you are hoping to get into.E.Sports, the arts and other interests can be a huge part in determining the right school.F.Choosing between a larger or smaller campus is the first step to narrow down which college is right for you.G.You should be thinking well in advance about which teachers you want to writerecommendations to.三、完形填空For most people, graduation is an exciting day, but my graduation day was not. I remember that weekend two years ago. Family and friends had flown in from across the country to 21 the celebration. But just like everyone else in my class, I had watched the 22 turn from bad to worse in my senior year. Almost all of us graduates had degrees, but very uncertain 23 .The weeks ahead weren’t 24 . I knew my small university town couldn’t offer me any opportunities, 25 I packed up my car and drove to Southern California to find work. But what I thought would take a 26 dragged into two, and then four, and 100 job applications later, I found myself in the exact same 27 as I was before.You know that feeling when you wake up in 28 ? That feeling became a constant in my life. Days felt like weeks, weeks like months, and those many months felt like everlasting 29 . And the most annoying part was no matter how much I tried, I just couldn’t seem to make any 30 .So what did I do to keep my good sense? I decided to 31 . Something about putting words on a page made everything seem a little clearer — a little brighter. Something about writing gave me 32 . And if you want something 33 enough, sometimes a little hope is all you 34 !I put my thoughts into a children’s book. Beyond the River was the story of an unlikely hero, a little fish, who 35 to give up his dream.And then one day, without any sort of writing degree or contacts in the writing world —just a lot of hard work and determination —I was offered a 36 contract for my first book! After that, things slowly began to fall into 37 . I was offered a second book deal. Then, a few months later, I got an interview with the Walt Disney Company and was 38 shortly after.Don’t give up. Even if things look 39 now, don’t give up. If you work hard, things will always get better. Often times our dreams lie in wait just a little further upstream ... all we need is the 40 to push beyond the river.21．A．hold B．attend C．prepare D．enjoy 22．A．environment B．climate C．opportunity D．economy23．A．choice B．danger C．desire D．future 24．A．quiet B．busy C．easy D．short 25．A．so B．but C．for D．or 26．A．day B．week C．month D．year 27．A．town B．direction C．situation D．habit 28．A．surprise B．delight C．peace D．fear 29．A．pain B．complaint C．love D．glory 30．A．appointment B．progress C．commitment D．decision 31．A．read B．think C．write D．paint 32．A．hope B．wisdom C．pleasure D．inspiration 33．A．hardly B．badly C．easily D．well 34．A．lack B．find C．bury D．need 35．A．refused B．managed C．failed D．decided 36．A．writing B．translating C．publishing D．reviewing 37．A．ruin B．place C．pieces D．despair 38．A．rewarded B．paid C．hired D．fired 39．A．different B．unimportant C．strange D．tough 40．A．courage B．chance C．time D．dream四、用单词的适当形式完成短文Recently a really strange thing happened in a middle school in China’s Hubei Province. Over 600 students there too k part in a “caring for an egg like a baby” 41．(active) in which they were asked to keep an egg close at hand for a month 42．breaking it.“It’s hard for parents to bring up their children, 43．many students just ignore it,” said Liu Kang, the school’s director. “They should44．(teach) to be grateful to their parents, who have given them life but ask for nothing in return.”Li Ming is one of the students.

The author’s purpose of writing the passage is to ________ .A. entertainB. informC. persuadeD. describeBPhil White has just returned from an 18,000-mile, around-the-world bicycle trip. White had two reasons for making this epic journey. First of all, he wanted to use the trip to raise money for charity, which he did. He raised ＄70,000 for the British charity, Oxfam. White's second reason for making the trip was to break the world record and become the fastest person to cycle around the world. He is still waiting to find out if he has broken the record or not.White set off from Trafalgar Square, in London, on 19th June 2004 and was back 299 days later. He spent more than l,300 hours in the saddle(车座)and destroyed four sets of tyres and three bike chains. He had the adventure of his life crossing Europe, the Middle East, India, Asia, Australia, New Zealand and the Americas. Amazingly, he did all of this with absolutely no support team. No jeep carrying food, water and medicine. No doctor. Nothing! Just a bike and a very, very long road.The journey was lonely and desperate at times. He also had to fight his way acrossdeserts, through jungles and over mountains. He cycled through heavy rains and temperatures of up to 45 degrees, all to help people in need. There were other dangers along the road. In Iran, he was chased by armed robbers and was lucky to escape with his life and the little money he had. The worst thing that happened to him was having to cycle into a headwind on a road that crosses the south of Australia. For 1,000 kilometres he battled against the wind that was constantly pushing him. This part of the trip was slow, hard work and depressing, but he made it in the end. Now Mr. White is back and intends to write a book about his adventures.24.When Phil White returned from his trip, he________.A. broke the world recordB. destroyed several bikesC. collected money for OxfamD. travelled about 1,300 hours25. What does the word "epic" in Paragraph l most probably mean?A. Very long and difficult.B. Very slow but exciting.C. Very smooth but tiring.D. Very lonely and depressing.26. During his journey around the world, Phil White _______.A. fought heroically against robbers in IranB. experienced the extremes of heat and coldC. had a team of people who travelled with himD. managed to ride against the wind in Australia27. Which of the following words can best describe Phil White?A. determined.B. independent.C. modest.D. imaginative.CReducing plastic waste isn't easy because the cheap material is found in almost every household item. Now, a delicious and nutritious solution has come up to helpreduce our dependence on this environmental hazard.David Christian, the co-founder of Evoware, says the idea of creating the biodegradable (生物降解的) products came from concern at the country's high pollution rate. Indonesia is home to four of the world's worst polluted rivers. Since single-use packaging is a large contributor to the problem, Evoware decided to deal with that first.After investigating various materials, the company settled on seaweed. Unlike corn, commonly used for biodegradable containers, seaweed does not require resources like water or large amounts of space. Since Indonesian farmers already harvest more seaweed than they can sell, it's easy for the company to find the material.Though they will not reveal their production process, Evoware says the seaweed packaging contains no chemicals and is safe to consume. The company has also invented single-use cups, which can break down 30 days after they're thrown away.While replacing plastic with the seaweed products may seem appealing to most of us, it is a hard-sell in Indonesia. According to Christian, “The awareness to reduce single-use plastic is still very low. This makes our bi oplastic unnecessary.” Also a factor is the cost, which is higher than using plastic. Hopefully, Evoware will succeed in convincing Indonesians and people worldwide that switching to their products will be helpful to protecting our beautiful planet.28.What problem did Evoware decide to deal with first?A.Ways to clean the four worst polluted rivers.B.How to deal with single-use packaging.C.Means to contribute to the country's economy.D.What nutritious materials for people to use.29.Why did Evoware choose seaweed?A.It could be found everywhere in his country.B.It was most commonly used for packaging.C.It didn't require much space and was easy to get.D.It grew thickly in most of the polluted rivers.30.What can we infer from Christian's words?A.Sometimes it's hard to get people to reduce the use of plastics.B.Their seaweed products have won government support.C.Their new products have received worldwide popularity.D.The cost of making seaweed products will be lowered soon.31.What does the underlined word “hard-sell” (in Para. 5) re fer to?A. Something lasting long.B. Something commonly seen.C. Something easy to get.D. Something hard to accept.DWhy do you go to the library? For books, yes—but you like books because they tell stories. You hope to get lost in a story or be transported into someone else’s life. At one type of library you can do just that—even though there's not a single book.At a Human Library, instead of books, you can "borrow" people. People with unique life stories volunteer to be the "books." For a certain amount of time, you can ask them questions and listen to their stories, which are as fascinating as any you can find in a book. (If you attend, make sure to review the habits that make you a good listener.) Many of the stories have to do with some kind of depressing topic. You can speak with a refugee, a soldier suffering from PTSD (创伤后遗症), a homeless person and a woman living with HIV. The Human Library encourages people to take time to truly get to know and learn from someone they might otherwise make a snap judgement about. According to its website, the Human Library is "a place where difficult questions are expected, appreciated and answered."The Human Library Organization came to be in Copenhagen, Denmark in 2000. Romni Abergel and his colleagues hosted a four-day event during a major Northern European festival. After the success of this event, Abergel founded the Human Library Organization, hoping to raise awareness among youth about depression, which has been growing ever since.Though there a few permanent human libraries, most aren’t place at all, but events. Though many do take place at physical libraries, you don't need a library card—anyone can come and be part of the experience. There have been human library events all over the globe, in universities and in pubs, from Chicago to Tunis to Edinburgh to San Antonio. Check out the organization's Facebook page to see when the Human Library might be arriving near you.32. What shall we do before going to the Human Library?A. Go over some listening habits.B.Get a library card.C. Make an appointment.D. Bring a book.33. What does the underlined word “snap" in paragraph 2 mean?A. True.B. Quick.C. Obvious.D. Wrong.34. Why did Ronmi Abergel found the Human Library Organization?A. He expected to answer different questions.B. He wanted young people to pay attention to depression.C. He successfully held an event in Northern Europe.D. He had set up the Human Libraries all over the world.35. What is the best title of the text?A. A Library in DenmarkB. Human Library OrganizationC. Human Library Is Near YouD."Borrow" People Instead of Books第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分。

一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解One of my favorite hobbies is exchanging old-fashioned, paper-with-a-stamp-on-it postcards with random strangers around the world.The Postcrossing Project was created by Paulo Magalhaes in 2005. He liked getting mails—especially postcards. He thought others did, too—but how could he connect with them? That's when he came up with the idea of an online platform (): There, postcard lovers like me can sign up to send a postcard to someone who has registered online, and receive a postcard in return.Along with a randomly selected address, participants get a unique code to put on the postcard. When the postcard arrives, the recipient registers that code with the site, which then causes the sender's address to be given to another postcrosser in turn. In practice, this means that for nearly every postcard I send (a few get lost in the mail) I get one back. And since I never know who will send me a card or where in the world they live, every trip to the mailbox holds the potential for a wonderful surprise.Privacy-conscious Americans might worry about sharing their address with strangers overseas. But postcrossers are friendly, polite, respectful folks—in more than 450 cards exchanged, I've yet to have a bad experience.On days when the international news is depressing, postcrossing is my comfort. There's nothing like getting a card from a child in China just learning to write in English, or a grandmother in Belarus describing her most recent gardening success to remind me that we truly are members of one global family, far more similar than we are different.It seems like such a small thing to send out a postcard. But as travel and communication technology continue to shrink the world, it's important to remember that it isn't just for diplomats and politicians to represent our country anymore. All of us have the power—and perhaps the responsibility—to be ambassadors, to show the best of your country to the world.And it's good to know that what you need to accomplish this is not necessarily complicated or expensive. It can be as simple as a postcard.（1）Why did Paulo set up ?A. To discuss personal hobbies with strangers.B. To exchange postcards with others in the worldC. To collect different postcards from other countries.D. To provide a platform for communication online.（2）According to the passage, postcrossers __________.A. don't know who will send them postcardsB. are sure to get a postcard back immediatelyC. often choose a receiver's address carefullyD. register every postcard they receive online （3）What did the writer learn from postcrossing?A. The international news is usually depressing.B. Americans are more conscious about privacy.C. Postcrossers sometimes describe their bad experience.D. The whole world is actually a big family.（4）What does the underlined word "this" refer to?A. Choosing a diplomat to represent a country.B. Having the responsibility to be an ambassador.C. Showing the best of your country.D. Shrinking the world with communication technology.【答案】（1）B（2）A（3）D（4）C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇应用文，介绍了网站，一个可以让世界各地的陌生人交换老式的、带有邮票的明信片的网站，由Paulo Magalhaes 在2005年创立。
