The light changed and they drove on, but Hannah was too young to be reasonable. She pestered (纠缠)her parents about inequity, insisting that she wanted to do something.“What do you want to do?” her mom responded. “Sell our house?”Warning! Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager. Hannah seized upon the idea of selling the luxurious family home and donating half the money to charity, while using the other half to buy a smaller replacement home.Eventually, that’s what the family did. The project —crazy, impetuous(鲁莽的) and utterly inspiring —is written down in detail in a book by father and daughter scheduled to be published next month: The Power of Half. It’s a book that, frankly, I’d be nervous about leaving around where my own teenage kids might find it. An impressionable child reads this, and the next thing you know your whole family is out on the street.At a time of great needs in Haiti and elsewhere, when so many Americans are trying to help Haitians by sending everything from text messages to shoes, the Salwens offer an example of a family that came together to make a difference — for themselves as much as the people they were trying to help. In a newspaper a week ago, it described neurological(神经学的) evidence from brain scans(扫描) that unselfishness lights up parts of the brain normally associated with more primary satisfaction. The Salwens’ experience confirms the selfish pleasures ofselflessness.Mr. Salwen and his wife, Joan, had always supposed that their kids would be better off in a bigger house. But after they downsized, there was much less space, so the family members spent more time around each other. A smaller house unexpectedly turned out to be a more family-friendly house.41．What does the underlined word “inequity” most probably mean in Paragraph 3? _______A．Unfairness.B．Satisfaction.C．Personal attitude.D．Reasonable statement.42．What is suggested in the underlined sentence “Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager. ” in Paragraph 5? _______A．Never advise an idealistic child to make a grand gesture.B．Unless a child is realistic, never give any promise.C．Give an immediate answer if the child is reasonable.D．Don’t respond to a child's demands without consideration.43．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? _______A．The Salwens donated a lot to charity though they weren’t rich.B．Unselfishness comes from people’s primary satisfaction.C．Hannah’s parents sold their house at Hannah’s request.D．The writer’s children asked him to sell their house.44．What can we learn from the last paragraph? _______A．The Salwens regretted selling their house.B．The family members got much closer.C．People living in small houses are happy.D．The Salwens intend to buy another big house.45．The best title for the passage should be “_______”.A．The Less, the BetterB．An Expected SatisfactionC．Something We Can Live WithoutD．Somewhat Crazy but InspiringCIf your preschoolers turn up their noses at carrots or celery, a small reward like a sticker(贴画) for taking even a taste may help get them to eat previously disliked foods, a UK study said.Though it might seem obvious that a reward could encourage young children to eat their vegetables, the idea is actually controversial, re searchers wrote in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. That’s because some studies have shown that rewards can backfire and cause children to lose interest in foods they already liked, said JaneWardle, a researcher at University College London who worked on the study. Verbal praise, such as “Brilliant! You’re a great vegetable taster”, did not work as well.“We would recommend that parents consider using small non-food rewards, given daily for tasting tiny pieces of the food—smaller than half a lit tle finger nail, ” Wardle said in an email.The study found that when parents gave their small children a sticker each time they took a “tiny taste” of a disliked vegetable, it gradually changed their attitudes. The children were also willing to eat more of the vegetables—either carrots, celery, cucumber, red pepper, cabbage or sugar snap peas—in laboratory taste tests, the study said.Researchers randomly assigned 173 families to one of these groups. In one, parents used stickers to reward their children each time they took a tiny sample of a disliked vegetable. A second group of parents used verbal praise. The third group, where Parents used no special vegetable-promoting methods, served as a “control”(控制组,对照组).Parents in the reward groups offered their c hildren a taste of the “target” vegetable every day for 12days. Soon after, children in the sticker group were giving higher ratings to the vegetables—and were willing to eat more in the research lab, going from an average of 5 grams at the start to about 10 grams after the 12-day experience. The turnaround also seemed to last, with preschoolers in the sticker group still willing to eat more of the once-disliked vegetable three months later.Why didn’t the verbal praise work? Wardle said the parents’ words may have seemed “insincere” to their children.46．The purpose of writing the passage is _______.A．to show the procedure of an experiment on children’s dietB．to introduce a practical method of making children eat vegetablesC．to explain why children hate to eat vegetablesD．to present a proper way of verbal praise to parents47．The underlined word “backfire” in Paragraph 2probably means “_______”.A．shoot from behind the backB．make a fire in the backyardC．produce an unexpected resultD．achieve what was planned48．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? _______A．Most children are born to dislike carrots or celery.B．Rewarding isn’t always a good way to get children to eat vegetables.C．Oral praise works quite well in encouraging children to eat vegetables.D．Children in the sticker group will never lose interest in eating vegetables.49．How did the researchers get their conclusion from the experiment? _______A．By comparison.B．By asking questions.C．By giving examples.D．By discussion.50．What can we learn from the last paragraph? _______A．Children like rewards, not verbal praise.B．Parents should give up verbal praise.C．Children are very difficult to inspire.D．Parents’ tone is important to their kids.DGoing shopping seems easy, but actually it takes a lot of learning, especially in America. In fact, many Americans who are not so well-off often shop at “sales” or at special stores that sell things at low prices, which you may find interesting. In America, the important rule of dressing is that one should change his or her clothes every day. For example, in an American college, neither professors nor students are seen in the same clothes two days in a row. So you may find it necessary to buy more clothes than you have in China. While you are shopping in the States, you will discover that prices range considerably from time to time. The purchase of used, second-hand clothing, furniture, or other household articles may be an excellent way of saving money. Most second-hand clothes are of pretty good quality. If you are going to settle down in the States and want some furniture, you may go to a “loan closet”, where furniture rents at low cost, or you may also go to a “furniture exchange” place in the community.Sheets, blankets, and other bedclothes go on sale in most communities twice a year. Advertisements for “white sales” on bed linen, towels, etc., often appear in January, as well as in May, June or July. Once or twice every season, there will be “garage sales”, where you can get almost anything, from a yacht to a pair of shoes, at low prices. Prices at “discount stores” and “thrift shops” are also as low as you can imagine.When shopping for food, you should look for special prices for various items that are put on sale weekly. To economize, it would be a good idea for you to plan the weekly menu according to what is on sale, including in it the meats, vegetables, fruits, etc. that can be bought at special prices that week.Exchange and return policies vary from store to store. You should also keep in mind that exchange and return policies for sales items can be different from standard store policies, especially if the price of the items has been reduced. Ask the merchant about their exchange and return policies before making your purchase. Obtaining an exchange or a return without a store receipt is often difficult. So, to save yourself the headache, you’d better hold on to any paper or other proof of purchase.51．People shopping in America will discover _______A．American goods are excellentB．most clothes come from ChinaC．prices vary much sometimesD．used clothes are of poor quality52．A person who needs furniture can _______A．exchange their goods for furnitureB．settle in a place that has furnitureC．get some free of chargeD．rent some at low cost53．At a “white sale”, one can buy _______A．almost anythingB．meats, vegetables, fruitsC．bed linen, towelsD．shoes at low prices54．Garage sales are held _______A．once or twice every three monthsB．once or twice every yearC．from time to timeD．in January, May, June or July55．What does “any paper or other proof” in the last paragraph refer to? _______A．The exchange and return policy.B．A store receipt.C．A sales item.D．The standard store policy.第Ⅱ卷第三部分写作第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题.Most 20-year-olds are still trying to figure out what they want to do in life. Boyan Slat is not like that. Ever since he was 16-years old, the Dutch teenager has had one mission— to clean up the trillions of pieces of plastic that are polluting our oceans and killing precious marine life. What's amazing is that this young man who started with what sounded like an outlandish dream may actually be able to pull off this gargantuan task!Slat's first exposure to ocean garbage came during a diving vacation in Greece. The teenager was stunned to see that there was more plastic on the beaches than fishes in the sea. Upon completing high school, he started to pursue his lifelong dream of becoming an Aerospace Engineer. However, he could never erase the images of the plastic debris from his mind.So in 2013, Slat dropped out of college and established The Ocean Cleanup Foundation. Its mission was to create an environmentally friendly large-scale and efficient way to remove the plastic pollution from aquatic ecosystems(水生生态系统), while increasing awareness by simultaneously communicating this processintensively.Within a year, the determined youngster and his team of 100 volunteer scientists and engineers from all around the world managed to come up with a 530-page feasibility study that laid out the technology and the financial needs for such a concept to be practical.Called the “Ocean Cleanup Project,” it did not entail chasing after every piece of floating plastic. Instead, the plan focused on the five "garbage" patches that have been accumulated by rotating ocean currents or gyres(涡流) in specific areas. According to experts, the five harbor about 5.25 trillion of the 8 trillion pieces of plastic estimated to be floating around the world's oceans today.Slat's team hypothesized that if we create a stationary(固定的) collection area around each one, the plastic could be picked up in an economical and efficient manner. The plan was convincing enough to raise the team close to $2．2million USD in a crowd funding campaign.56．What has Boyan Slat dreamed of doing since he was 16?

高中英语真题：高级中学2015届高三第一次模拟考试试题.doc一、阅读理解(共4题)1.Samuel Osmond is a 19-year-old law student from Cornwall, England. He never studied the piano. However, he can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them. He learns a piece of music by listening to it in parts. Then he thinks about the notes in his head. Two years ago, he played his first piece Moonlight Sonata（奏鸣曲）by Beethoven. He surprised everyone around him.Amazed that he remembered this long and difficult piece of music and played it perfectly, his teachers say Samuel is unbelievable .They say his ability is very rare, but Samuel doesn’t even reali ze that what he can do is special. Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents, but music teachers told him he should study music instead. Now, he studies law and music.Samuel can’t understand why everyone is so surprised. “I gr ew up with music. My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar. About two years ago, I suddenly decided to start playing the piano, without being able to read music and without having any lessons. It comes easily to me ---I hear the notes and can bear them in mind---each and every note,” says Samuel.Recently, Samuel performed a piece during a special event at his college. The piece had more than a thousand notes. The audience was impressed by his amazing performance. He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can’t play it. Samuel says confidently,” It’s all about super memory---I guess I have that gift.”However, Samuel’s ability to remember things doesn’t stop with music. His family says that even when he was a young boy, Samuel heard someone read a story, and then he could retell the story word for word.Samuel is still only a teenager. He doesn’t know what he wants to do in the future. For now, he is just happy to play beautiful music and continue his studies.21. What is special about Samuel Osmond?A. He has a gift for writing music.B. He can write down the note he hears.C. He is a top student at the law school.D. He can play the musical piece he hears.22. What can we learn from Paragraph 2 ?A.Samuel chose law against the wish of his parents.B. Samuel planned to be a lawyer rather than a musician.C. Samuel thinks of himself as a man of great musical ability.D. Samuel studies law and music on the advice of his teachers.23. Everyone around Samuel was surprised because he _________.A. received a good early education in musicB. played the guitar and the piano perfectlyC. could play the piano without reading musicD. could play the guitar better than his father24. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. The Qualities of a MusicianB. The Story of a Musical TalentC. The Importance of Early EducationD. The Relationship between Memory and Music.2.I fell in love with England because it was quaint (古雅)—all those little houses, looking terri­bly old-fashioned but nice, like dolls’ houses. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London. I’ve slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it’s an ugly town now.Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, and good man­ners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good man­ners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You’re forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public trans­port after 10 p. m. I used to use it , but now I’m afraid.The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that’s typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbor who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.25. The writer doesn’t like London because she ______.A. is not used to the life there nowB. has lived there for seventeen yearsC. prefers to live in an old-fashioned houseD. has to be polite to everyone she meets there26. Where do people usually meet their friends in England?A. In a cafe.B. In a restaurant.C. In a nightclub.D. In a pub.27. The underl ined part “it” (in Para. 4) refers to______.A. a taxiB. the moneyC. a bombD. public transport28. The writer took her neighbors to France for Christmas because he ______.A. felt lonely in EnglandB. had never been to FranceC. was from a typical French familyD. didn't like the British idea of family3. Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family.Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea. But I was about to find out.After completing my training, I was sent to the village that wassmall and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and I returned to the United States a different man. The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.29. According to the Paragraph 2, it is most likely that the authorA. discussed his decision with his family.B. asked previous volunteers about voluntary workC. attended special training to perform difficult tasksD. felt sad about having to leave his family and friends30. In his application for the volunteer job, the authorA. participated in many discussionsB. went through some interviews and presentationsC. wrote quite a few papers on voluntary workD. faced strong competition from other candidates31. On arrival at the village, the author wasA. asked to lead a farming teamB. sent to teach in a schoolhouseC. received warmly by local villagersD. arranged to live in a separate house.4.Still seeking a destination for your weekend break? There are some places which are probably a mere wall away from your college.King’s Art CentreA day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere. Thisweekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.You could attend a class teaching you how to ‘learn fr om the masters’ or get more creative with paint – free of charge.The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.The Botanic GardenThe Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.The multi-branched Torch Aloe here is impressive. The African plant produces red flowers above blue-green leaves, and is not one to miss.Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.The Garden is also a place for wildlife-enthusiasts. Look for grass snakes in the lake. A snake called ‘Hissing Sid’ is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.Byron’s PoolMany stories surround Lord Byron’s time as a student of Cambridge University. Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of “mess and drunkenness”. However, it seems as though Byron did man age to pass the time pleasantly enough. I’m not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms. He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, which is now k nown as Byron’s Pool. A couple of miles past GrantChester in the south Cambridge shire countryside, the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields. The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea. If you don’t trust me, then perhaps you’ll take it from Virginia Woolf – over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.32. As mentioned in the passage, there is a small charge for ____.A. attending the masters’ classB. working with local artistsC. learning life drawingD. seeing an exhibition33. “Torch Aloe” and “Venus Flytrap” are ____.A. common insectsB. impressive plantsC. rarely-seen snakesD. wildlife-enthusiasts34. We can infer from the passage that Byron seemed ____.A. to fear pet bearsB. to like walkingC. to be a heavy drinkerD. to finish university in 180535. In the passage Byron’s Pool is described as a lake ____.A. surrounded by fieldsB. owned by Lord ByronC. located in Grant ChesterD. discovered by Virginia Woolf二、阅读填空(共2题)1.All over the world people enjoy sports.

What global warming is doing to the environment.D. Why cars and buses pollute the air a lotCWater runs downhill from mountaintops to streams to rivers to oceans. But downhill isn’t the only way that water moves .A new study measures how water travels from country to country for human consumption. This flow isn’t the type we usually think about .These scientists looked at the water used to grow and make the products which get shipped from nation to nation as imports or exports. They call this a flow of“virtual water（虚拟水）”.We typically think about water as the liquid that flows from a tap. However,92％of the water used by people goes into growing crops，according to water researcher Arjen Hoekstra. He recently studied the hidden travels of virtual water used in products made from things like crops and meats .These products are shipped around the world.For example．consider a sugary soft drink. Hoekstra estimated that to produce one half-liter of the drink requires between 170 and 310litersofthewater—about 95％—is used to grow and process the ingredients(原料).Another 4％goes into the packaging and labeling. In Hoekstra’s calculation, when one country produces a half-liter of soda and sells it abroad，it exports as much virtual water as would fill a large refrigerator．According to Hoekstra’s new report，dry countries like Israel and Kuwait，both in the Middle East,get the majority of their virtual water from other countries，through imported products. More surprisingly,some wetter countries，like theNetherlands and the United Kingdom,also get the majority of their virtual water from other places. That means that most of the water used to grow or produce the products and food consumed in those countries came from other countries.In the United States most of the virtual water used comes from American sources .In China even less of the water associated with its products51. What is the best title for the passage?A. Crops and Virtual WaterB. Import and Export of WaterC. Benefits of Virtual WaterD. Water’s worldwide travels52. The first paragraph is intended to talk about__________.A. how water flowsB. what virtual water isC. where virtual water existsD. why water is imported and exported53. The example of a sugary soft drink in Paragraph 3 is given to show_________.A. how drinks are madeB. how virtual water is usedC. how virtual water is exportedD. how drinks are shipped54.In which countries does most part of virtual water come from outside?A. lsrael and AmericaB. America and the NetherlandsC. China and the United KingdomD. Kuwait and the Netherlands55. The passage is most probably a_________.A. science news reportB. book reviewC. newspaper advertisementD. science fiction storyDHow to deal successfully with a child showing outstanding musical ability? It’s not always clear how best to develop and encourage his gift. Many parents may even fail to recognize and respond to their children′s need until discouragement explodes into uncooperative(不合作的)behavior. And while most schools are equipped to deal with children who are especially able in academic subjects，the musically gifted require special understanding which may not always be available in an ordinary school. Such children may well benefit from the education offered by a specialist music school.The five music schools in Britain aim to provide all environment where gifted children can develop their skills under the guidance of professional musicians. Children here spend about half of a day on musical activities，for example，individual lessons，orchestras，chamber(室内音乐的)groups，voice training，conducting and theory. They also spend several hours a day practicing in private rooms .The rest of their time is taken up with the subjects：English，maths and basicsciences.What are the disadvantages? An obvious problem is that the fees are high .However,each school will often scholarships and other forms of financial aid. Secondly,not all parents want to send their children to boarding school, especially at an early age .Almost all the directors of the specialist schools express doubts about the wisdom of admitting children as young as seven into such a tense and disciplined（守纪律的)environment. They stress，however, that their main aim is to turn out “well-rounded and well—balanced individual.”56. If a child’s musical ability is not recognized___________.A. the child may behave badlyB. the ability may fade awayC. the child may lose interestD. the parents may become anxious57. What probably may musically gifted children face in ordinary schools?A. Their academic work may suffer．B. Schools lack musical equipmentC. Music is not seen as an important subjectD. Parents and teachers don’t work together．58. What makes specialist music schools different from other schools?A. Their working day is longer．B. A range of musical training is offeredC. More than half the day is spent on musicD. The children have mostly one-to-one lessons59. According to school directors，what is a possible disadvantage for pupils?A. Poor children may not be includedB. They may lose their individualityC. There may be a discipline problemD. They may be too small on arrival60 The passage mainly talks about__________.A. education and development about childrenB. disadvantages of music schoolsC. music schools for children with music gift D how to deal with music talented childrenEA job is more than a job，especially to the old. “It’s not the money that matters，but the sense of self-worth．”56-year-old Cbeng Wonlan said. So，every day Ms Cheng carries a bag of parcels，letters and documents and does her rounds in North Point. She’s a courier(快递员)Five years ago．Ms Cheng was a nurse at a private clinic. She had worked there for 30 years but was Jobless when the doctor migrated. It was difficult for her to find another job as a nurse. “People do not trust my ability when they learn howold I am，”she said. After two years of searching, she eventually found another nursing job. But then after two years，she quit Why?‘My colleagues were young and they didn′ t understand me because of my age. They often asked me ‘You are so old what are you working for? I was very unhappy”She said. So while the rest of her family left for work，she was left to lonely boredom at home .Then her neighbours told her about Employee’s Retraining Board(ERB)offering retraining courses for older people. These courses are specifically designed to encourage the older people back to work.“I was interested in courier work. I didn’t think my age was a barrier because I was fit.”She said .Upon graduating，Ms Cheng was offered a job by the Speeding Shuttle Courier Service Company. But then Ms Cheng was faced with a conflict：she was caught between honour and employment“I felt embarrassed about carrying and delivering letters and parcels.”she said. It took Ms Cheng 24 hours to make up her mind：there was nothing wrong or embarrassing about doing the job. So she went off to work as a courier．Ms Cheng’s employer is delighted with her responsible attitude and said．“I hired older people because they were able and reliable .Age is not an important factor but attitude is Many old people will not run from difficulties but the young ones will”61. Why was it difficult for Ms Cheng to find another nursing Job?A. Nursing clinics were hard to findB. She found it difficult to trust othersC. People thought she was too old to workD. People didn’t think she had enough work experience62. Ms Cheng left her second nursing job because___________.A. she was bored with change less jobsB. it was too difficultC. she was too old to do the jobD. the other staff made her feel uncomfortable63 Employee“Retraining Board is a plan for___________.A. finding jobs for older peopleB. teaching new skills to older peopleC. training older people to be healthierD. providing older people with chances to earn money64.
