about except catching a ball．It's a time when words move asseamlessly（准确不误地） as the ball itself，back and forth，easy and relaxing．It's an excuse to（20） time together．Because baseball is an American sport，and a big part of being American，playing catch is kind of an all﹣American dad activity．In the suburbs（郊区），most people have backyards﹣not（21） enough to play baseball in，but just big enough for a game of catch．Those who have no（22）can play in the street or in the park．When adults are asked to talk about the good（23）of their dads，many of them will say something about playing catch．Why？Probably

Bloomberg．They are based on his experience of building a company from the ground up，leading New York City as mayor（市长），and so on．Take RisksLife is too short to spend your time avoiding failure．In 1981，at the age of 39，I lost my job．The next day I took a big risk and began my own company．In 2001，when I was debating whether to run for mayor，most people advised me not to do it．But one person said，"If you can imagine yourself giving a concession（败选）speech，then why not go for it？"That was the best advice I received，and I followed it．In order to succeed，you must first be willing to fail﹣and you must have the courage to go for it anyway．Make your own luckLuck plays a part in success．The harder you work，the luckier you get．Whatever you choose to do，even if it's not the job of your dreams，always work hard at it．Be the first person at work in the morning and the last to leave at night．Hard work creates chances．Never stop learningThe most powerful word in English language is"why"．There is nothing so powerful as an open，inquiring mind（探究精神）．Whatever field you choose for starting a business﹣be a lifelong student．Give backYou are responsible for your success and failure，but you only succeed if you share the reward with others．My first donation was a 5check to my alma mater （母校）．And while the checks （支票）may be bigger today，they come with the same spirit．You don't have to be wealthy to give back．You can give back by giving your time and talents．36．In this passage，Michael Bloomberg is the name of a ．A．newspaperB．placeC．companyD．person37．What did the writer do at the age of 59？A．Lost his job．B．Ran for mayor．C．Built a company．D．Became a teacher．38．From the passage，we can infer that the writer．A．is a young mayorB．seldom cares about othersC．is lucky all the

you by looking at your eyes!The program works because everyone's eyes are different．So in the future you won't have to remember the number of your credit card when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank．You'll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are．The eye﹣recognition（眼睛识别）program has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA，Britain，Spain，Italy and Turkey．Soon this technology will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are．Eye﹣recognition is a course of recognizing iris（虹膜），which includes the following steps．First，a kind of machine needs to collect different examples of one's iris from his eyes and store them．Second，when this person goes to the bank to take out money，this machine will have iris feature extraction（采集）．Then，this machine will compare the examples kept in it with iris feature extraction．Once the examples and the feature extraction are the same，this person will be identified，and he will take out the money from the bank successfully．However，scientists are also working on other systems．Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell!We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger．Eye﹣recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don't change as you get older，and don't get dirty like hands or fingers，and even twins have different eyes．So the eye﹣recognition program can be up to 94% correct，depending on how good the technology is．However，some other programs may only be 51% correct now．In Britain，it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea ofeye﹣recognition．In the future your computer will be looking you in the eye．So smile!41．The program has been tested in shops and banks in ．A．America and ChinaB．Spain and JapanC．Britain and TurkeyD．Italy and German42．According to the steps in Paragraph 3，which picture

people．45．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？A．All the eye﹣recognition programs can be up to 94% correct．B．In Britain，91% of people said that they liked the idea of eye recognition．C．Everyone's eyes are different，even twins have different eyes．D．Some other programs used to be 51% correct．第二节阅读填空（共1小题；每小题5分，满分5分）阅读短文及文后选项，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．46．March 20th is

He then made non-harmful plastic molds (模子) around them to make 12 sets of braces.Dudley, who does not recommend attempting any of this at home said that he didn’t ask a dentist for his project. But the student did get information from journal articles and textbooks. And though this was a perfectly friendly choice to buy braces. He didn’t accept the project just to save money--he was also up for the challenge.“When I realized that I could do something that was a little bit special, while proving my skills as a designer and a maker, and fixing something that was making me self-conscious for actually free, I felt it was more than worth the risk.” he said.36.

广东省广州市XX中学2016年中考一模英语试题含答案广州市2015学年下学期初三综合测试英语科测试试题一、语法选择（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分）Humankind ___1___ to improve ___2___ standard of living since the very beginning of civilization. Back then, as well as today, providing food and security was the basic task for a per-son. However, nowadays the range of required goods has expanded significantly. People feel the need for not only some primary things, such as a piece of bread and a roof over their heads, but also for various facilities and luxuries. Providing humanity ___3___ these things is connected to the use of natural resources, which requires energy. In turn, the common sources of energy we use today cause pollution, so economic growth is almost unavoidably associated with environmental damage.Economic growth is the increase in numbers of goods and services produced over time by an economy, and it is calculated in terms of real Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Before growth is calculated, inflation (通货膨胀)is adjusted in order to take into account its misleading effect on the price of goods and services. Economic growth can also be explained as the increase in expected output, which results from an increase in ___4___ output, or total demand.There are certain aspects of economic growth which affect the environment. The first of these is the fact that in order to produce more goods and products, at ___5___ faster rate, the construction of large industrial plants is required. These plants produce ___6___ waste, ___7___ to the pollution of water and the atmosphere, which may cause negative long term health effects to nearby ___8___ of animals, or people. They also lead to global warming.Industrial manufacturing leads to the constantly increasing energy consumption. The traditional energy sources, which ___9___ commonly used nowadays, are considered ___10___ the greatest polluters to the environment. There also exist so-called ecofriendly sources of energy. They are ___11___ preferred but replacing the traditional sources with them also requires time, ___12___ people have to make some sacrifices to support these undertakings.In order to produce economically practical energy, a sometimes significant transformation of the natural site is often inevitable. This is expensive and, has harmful effects on the environment. Application of wind energy would block airflows' natural speed which is the reason for their decrease in strength, after crossing the windmill. Consequently, the pres-sure balance that is brought about by this current ___13___ , and it is important to remember ___14___ the environment and weather conditions are ___15___ affected by atmospheric pressure.For these reasons, bringing about economic growth without any resulting environmental damage, whatsoever, is impossible.( )1．A. has tried B. had tried C. tried D. have tried ( )2．A. their B. its C. his D. our( )3．A. for B. with C. about D. to( )4．A. expected B. expecting C. expectment D. being expected ( )5．A. the B. an C. a D. /( )6．A. many B. a large number of C. a little D. plenty of ( )7．A. leading B. led C. leads D. is leading( )8．A. population B. populations C. a population D. an population ( )9．A. is B. are C. was D. were( )10．A. being B. be C. to be D. was( )11．A. some times B. some time C. sometime D. sometimes ( )12．A. where B. that C. which D. during which ( )13．A. will effect B. will be effected C. is affected D. affects ( )14．A. that B. which C. how D. when( )15．A. direct B. directly C. indirect D. indirectly第二节、完形填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分）In Britain, people have different attitudes to the police.Most people generally ___16___ them and the job they do-although there are certain people who do not believe that the police ___17___ have the power that they do.What does a policeman actually do? It is not an easy job to describe. After all, a policeman has a number of jobs in one. A policeman often has to control traffic, either on foot in the center of a town, or in a police car on the roads. Indeed, in Britain, he might be in the Traffic Police and spend all, or a lot of, his time ___18___ up and down main roads and motorways. A traffic policeman has to help keep the traffic moving, stop speeding motorists and help when there is an accident.A policeman has to help keep the ___19___ , too. If there is a fight or some other disturbance, we expect he police to come and restore order. And they often have to deal situation at great risk to their own ___20___ .We expect the police to solve crimes, of course, so an ordinary policeman, ___21___ he is not a detective, he will often have to help look for and arrest criminals.And who do we call when there is an emergency-an air crash, a ___22___ , a road accident, or a robbery? We call the police. So a policeman has to be ___23___ to face any unpleasant emergency that may happen in the modern world.The police do an absolutely necessary job, they do it ___24___ well and I support them, but I do not envy policemen.

With any relationship, you need to let other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn't solve anything.Communication begins with the concerns (关心) of another. It means that you can't just come home from school, go up to your room and ignore (不理睬) everyone. Even if you just say"Hi", and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.If you looked up the word "communication" in a dictionary, it would say"the exchange of ideas, the conveyance (表达) of information, correspondence (通信), means of communication: a letter or a message". To maintain (保持) a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it's just by writing a note.When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you'll listen to what they have to say, but ask them politely to listen to you. Yelling or walking away only makes the situation worse.This is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn't feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, not when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren't as mad and let the incident go. Communication is the key factor here. If Sophie's parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble. Communication isn't a one-way deal: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie's, telling the other person how you feel-listening is the key factor to communication. ( ) 26. In the writer's view, dealing with parents is _____ than with children.A. more difficultB. easierC. more uninterestingD. more interesting( ) 27. The main idea of the second paragraph is _____.A. the importance of friendshipB. to make your feeling known to othersC. the importance of communicationD. the disagreement between generations ( ) 28.When parents and children are in communication, the key to a happy relationship is that _____.A. children should always obey their parentsB. they should be equalC. parents play the leading partD. both make the opposite know their feelings( ) 29.The example in this passage proves that _____.A. Sophie's parents are willing to listen to herB. Sophie is very polite to her parentsC. Sophie did well in explaining her being lateD. communication is the solution (解决办法) to misunderstanding( ) 30. All the following statements are correct except "_____".A. If you don't agree with others, you'd better let them knowB. It is better to say "Hi" to others than say nothingC. If you are not able to communicate, walk awayD. Communication is a two-way deal( B )When I asked my daughter which item she would keep; the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said"the phone". Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual. Because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone. "The mobile saved my life, "says Crystal Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车) to her rescue. Point 3 The mobile removes our secret. It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are , where they are going, and how their last meeting went.Point 4 The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, "We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near——but we didn't meet for the first two weeks!"Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously (同时地) on chat lines (at least my daughter does. I wouldn't know what to talk about). We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts (if you know any) while they're space-walking. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access(进入) the Internet, the biggest library on Earth.( ) 31.How do you understand Point 1-The telephone creates the need to communicate,6…?A. People don't communicate without telephone.B. People communicate because of the creating of the telephone.C. People communicate more since telephone has been created.D. People communicate more because of more traffic.( ) 32.Which of the following best shows people's attitude towards mobile phones?A. Mobile phones help people deal with the emergency.B. Mobile phones bring convenience as well little secret to people.C. Mobile phones are so important and should be encouraged.D. Mobile phones are part of people's life.( ) 33.Which points do you think support the idea that phones improve people's life?a. Point 1.b. Point2.c. Point3.d. Point 4.e. Point 5.A. c, dB. a, eC. a, cD. b, e( ) 34.It is possible to talk to several complete strangers simultaneously through .A. the TV screenB. a fax machineC. the phone line hooked up to the computerD. a microphone( ) 35.The best heading for the passage is .A. The power of PhoneB. Kinds of PhoneC. How to Use PhonesD. Advantage of Phones( C )I came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet, I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the car accident I had to see a doctor-and go to court (法庭).After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I'd have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had help me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.But every time I want to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines and it cost me $215.My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him. And he made me pay him $770.Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I told the insurance (保险) company the date I was leaving American. Knowing that, they played for time and I left without getting a cent.( ) 36. The author's roommate offered to help him because _____.A. he felt sorry for the authorB. he thought it was a chance to make some moneyC. he knew the doctor was a very good oneD. he wanted the author to have a good lawyer( ) 37. A good doctor is essential for the author to _____.A. to be properly treatedB. talk with the person responsible for the accidentC. recover before he leave AmericaD. eventually get the responsible party to pay for his injury( ) 38. The word "charge"in this passage means ______.A. be responsibleB. accuseC. ask as a priceD. claim ( ) 39. Both the doctor and the lawyer in the passage are very _____.A. friendlyB. selfishC. professionalD. busy( ) 40. What conclusion can you draw from the story?A. Going to court is something very common in AmericaB. One must very careful while driving a carC. There are more bad sides in America than good sidesD. Money is more important than other things in America( D )When we think of leadership, we often think of strength and power. But what are these really, and how do they operate?Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. If this is even possible, it isshort-term, and tends to backfire. If you order someone to do something against their will, they may do it because they feel they must, but the anger they feel will do more harm in the long-term.They will also experience fear.Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to function at his or her best. If they associate you with this emotion of fear, they will become less functional around you, and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot, but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively. Fear has no place in leadership.The way we influence people in a lasting way is by our own character, and our understandingand use of emotion. We can order someone to do something, which may be part of the work day; or we can employ them at the emotional level, so they became fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivation (积极性). Today's work place is all about relationships. Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which they are recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker.Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like. Leaders understand the way things work. They know the pay check is not the single most motivating factor (因素) in the work life of most people.The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligence-knowing your own emotions, and how to handle them, and those of others. Developing your emotional intelligence is the single best thing you can do if you want to develop your relationships with people around you, which is the key to the leadership skills.( )41.The underlined phrase "shooting oneself in the foot" means ______ in the passage.A. throw or walk in a specific direction or towards a specific objective.B. to injure or harm one's own interestsC. to move or pass suddenly or swiftlyD. to grow forth from the ground( )42. An employee may have a feeling of fear in the work place when _____.A. he is forced to do thingsB. be cannot work at his bestC. he feels his brain shut downD. he thinks of his work as too heavy( )43. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. People tend to associate leadership with fearB. Working conditions affect people's physical healthC. Good relationship is the key to business successD. Smart people are more functional in the work place.( )44. To positively influence employees a leader should first of all ______.A. provide better suggestionsB. develop his own personalityC. five his employees a pay raiseD. hide his own emotion of fear( )45. Good leadership is mainly seen in a leader's ability to ______.A. provide a variety of project for employeesB. help raise employee's living standardsC. give employees specific instructionsD. deal wisely with employees' emotions第二节阅读填空（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）阅读短文，从短文后的ABCDE五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

company from the ground up，leading New York City as mayor（市长），and so on．Take RisksLife is too short to spend your time avoiding failure．In 1981，at the age of 39，I lost my job．The next day I took a big risk and began my own company．In 2001，when I was debating whether to run for mayor，most people advised me not to do it．But one person said，"If you can imagine yourself giving a concession（败选）speech，then why not go for it？"That was the best advice I received，and I followed it．In order to succeed，you must first be willing to fail﹣and you must have the courage to go for it anyway．Make your own luckLuck plays a part in success．The harder you work，the luckier you get．Whatever you choose to do，even if it's not the job of your dreams，always work hard at it．Be the first person at work in the morning and the last to leave at night．Hard work creates chances．Never stop learningThe most powerful word in English language is"why"．There is nothing so powerfulas an open，inquiring mind（探究精神）．Whatever field you choose for starting a business﹣be a lifelong student．Give backYou are responsible for your success and failure，but you only succeed if you share the reward with others．My first donation was a 5check to my alma mater （母校）．And while the checks（支票）may be bigger today，they come with the same spirit．You don't have to be wealthy to give back．You can give back by giving your time and talents．36．In this passage，Michael Bloomberg is the name of a．A．newspaperB．placeC．companyD．person37．What did the writer do at the age of 59？A．Lost his job．B．Ran for mayor．C．Built a company．D．Became a teacher．38．From the passage，we can infer that the writer．A．is a young mayorB．seldom cares about othersC．is lucky all the timeD．is a hard﹣working man39．Which of the following isn't mentioned in the tips？A．Failure is the mother of success．B．It's never too old to learn．C．Money is everything．D．Luck comes from hard work．40．In which of the following columns（栏目）can you find the article？A．Family LifeB．Interesting StoriesC．Experience SharingD．Adventures．41．Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes!The program works because everyone's eyes are different．So in the future you won't have to remember the number of your credit card when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank．You'll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are．The eye﹣recognition（眼睛识别）program has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA，Britain，Spain，Italy and Turkey．Soon this technology will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are．Eye﹣recognition is a course of recognizing iris（虹膜），which includes the following steps．First，a kind of machine needs to collect different examples of one's iris from his eyes and store them．Second，when this person goes to the bank to take out money，this machine will have iris feature extraction（采集）．Then，this machine will compare the examples kept in it with iris feature extraction．Once the examples and the feature extraction are the same，this person will be identified，and he will take out the money from the bank successfully．However，scientists are also working on other systems．Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell!We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger．Eye﹣recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don't change as you get older，and don't get dirty like hands or fingers，and even twins have different eyes．So the eye﹣recognition program can be up to 94% correct，depending on how good the technology is．However，some other programs may only be 51% correct now．In Britain，it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea ofeye﹣recognition．In the future your computer will be looking you in the eye．So smile!41．The program has been tested in shops and banks in．A．America and ChinaB．Spain and JapanC．Britain and TurkeyD．Italy and German42．According to the steps in Paragraph 3，which picture shows how the eye recognition happens？43．According to

people．B．Some special things of other programmes．C．The places where other programmes are tested．D．Some old machines used to identify people．45．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？A．All the eye﹣recognition programs can be up to 94% correct．B．In Britain，91% of people said that they liked the idea of eye recognition．C．Everyone's eyes are different，even twins have different eyes．D．Some other programs used to be 51% correct．第二节阅读填空（共1小题；每小题5分，满分5分）阅读短文及文后选项，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．46．March 20th is World Water Day every year．According to a report from the

Only one city —Beijing— had a population of over a million. Most people lived in rural areas, and never saw a city in their lives. In 1900, just a hundred years later, roughly 150 million people lived incities, and the world’s ten largest cities all had populations exceeding one million. By 2000, the number of city dwellers exceeded three billion; and in 2008, the world's population crossed a tipping point — more than half of the people on Earth lived in cities. By 2050, that could increase to over two-thirds. Clearly, humans have become an urban species.In the 19th and early 20th centuries, many people viewed cities negatively — crowded, dirty environments full of disease and crime. They feared that as cities got bigger, living conditions would worsen. In recent decades, however, attitudes have changed. Many experts now think urbanization (城市化) is good news, offering solutions to the problems of Earth’s growing population.Harvard economist Edward Glaeser, author of The Victory of the Cir, is one such person. Glaeser argues that cities are very productive because “the absence of space between people” reduces the cost of transporting goods, people, and ideas. While the flow of goods has always been important to cities, what is most important today is the flow of ideas. Successful cities enable people to learn from each other easily, and attract and reward smart people with higher wages.Another urbanization supporter is environmentalist Stewart Brand. Brand believes cities help the environment because they allow haft of the world’s population to live on about four percent of the land. This leaves more space for open country, such as farmland. City dwellers also have less impact per person on the environment than people in the countryside. Their roads, sewers, and power lines need fewer resources to build and operate. City apartments require less energy to heat, cool, and light. Most importantly, people in cities drive less so they produce fewer greenhouse gases per person.So it’s a mistake to see urbanization as evil; it’s a natural part of development. The challenge is how to manage the growth.4. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?A. The history of modern cities.B. Changes taking place within cities.C. How cities have grown over time.D. Why modern cities are changing.5. How have experts’ attitudes towards cities changed in recent decades?A. They now view the weaknesses as strengths.B. They no longer see city- living asattractive.C. They accept city life in spite of its problems.D. They think city- living provides more benefits.6. Which of the following would Edward Glaeser agree with?A. Cities provide more economicopportunities.B. City people get along better with eachother.C. Over-crowded cities result in problems.D. Cities limit the flow of ideas.7. According to Paragraph 4, what would be the result of moving people out of cities?A. Economic production would be reduced.B. There would be less farmland available.C. People would travel less frequently.D. House values would fall greatly.CIt was December 25, 1914, only months into World W arⅠ. German, British, and French soldiers, already sick and tired of the senseless killing, disobeyed their superiors and started socialising with “the enemy” along two-thirds of the Western Front.German troops held up Christmas trees with signs, “Merry Christmas”. Thousands of troops ran across the battlefields covered with dead bodies. They sang Christmas songs, exchanged photographs of loved ones back home, shared food and even played football. Soldiers hugged men they had been trying to kill a few short hours before. They agreed to warn each other if their officers forced them to fire their weapons, and to aim high.Fear ran through the military leaders on both sides. They felt that their power was being challenged: soldiers declaring their brotherhood with each other and refusing to fight. Generals declared this unexpected peacemaking illegal and said that participating soldiers would face a military court. Those found guilty would be imprisoned or even shot. By March 1915 the socialising movement had been destroyed and the killing machine was back in full operation. Over the next three years more than fifteen million people died in the war.Not many people have heard the story of the Christmas Truce (休战). On Christmas Day, 1988, a local radio host in Boston played “Christmas in the Trenches”, a song about the Christmas Truce, several times and was stunned by his listeners’ response. Thousands of people called in, praising the song, with many moved to tears by the amazing events it described.You can probably guess why the callers were in tears. The Christmas Truce story goes against most of what we have been taught about people. It lets us see the world as it can be and says, “This really happened once.” It shows us the potential we have as humans, and contradicts all of those TV and newspaper stories that tell us how mean and heartless people are. It is like hearing that our deepest wishes really are true: the world really can be different.8. The soldiers began socialising with the enemy because ________.A. they couldn’t bear the meaninglessB. it was the best way to avoid being killed killingbackgroundsC. they feared that they would be caughtD. their enemies were from similar9. How did the generals finally put an end to the soldiers’ socialising?A. They sent the soldiers’ loved ones to prison.B. They moved the two groups of soldiers further apart.C. They increased the number of officers to control the soldiers.D. They warned the soldiers that they would face severe punishment.10. The underlined word “stunned” in Paragraph 4 most probably means ________.A. satisfiedB. shockedC. amusedD. confused11. The author uses the story of the soldiers to imply that human beings ________.A. are not trustworthy under stressB. are naturally aggressive and war-likeself-interestC. are basically caring and kindheartedD. will always do what is in their ownDEarlier this year, the social media website Facebook announced that it would work with several news organization — including The New York Times, The Guardian, and the BBC— to place newsstories directly into users’ personal Facebook webpage. Stories published using Facebook Instant will load more quickly and keep the style of the original publisher, who will keep all the advertising income the stories earn — at least for now. The deal shows how important social, media has become to news organisations, and is a clear sign of how the world of news is changing — and has been for a while.When Google News began in 2002, many saw it as the death of the newspaper. It had no human editor. Instead Google used, and still uses, a secret computer program that selects and displays news stories according to the reader’s personal interests. More recently, Associated Press and Yahoo!have been punishing computer-written articles. Both use special software to automatically produce stories about company financial results and sports reports — areas where the quality of writing is felt to be of secondary importance to the accuracy of the data.Should we be worried about such developments? I think we should. One concern is that Facebook, Google and other social media websites see journalism as a sideline, a way of putting people in front of advertisements. It isn’t their primary function — so if it stops making them lots of money, they're likely to stop doing it.There’s also a concern that computer-written articles are not actually journalism at all, because what a human news team produces is actually quite complex. A well-written news story puts information in context, offers a voice to each side of an argument and brings the public new knowledge.Though economics and speed of delivery mean readers will probably choose a computer-written story over a carefully shaped article — at least for daily news — I don't think the computers will be writing any in-depth articles for a while yet.12.What is the main purpose of the article?A. To report on a new computer service offered by Facebook..B. To advise readers against reading computer-written news.C. To express concern about recent trends in online news.D. To describe the process of online news reporting.13. Computer-written news reports have so far focused on sports and finance because ________.A. these are the most popular topics for online readersB. there are fewer journalists specialising in these areasC. information on these topics is more easily availableD. writing style is less important than accuracy in these areas14. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Journalism.B. Advertising.C. Facebook.D. Business.15. In Paragraph 4, which of the following is mentioned as a characteristic of a well-written news article?B. The author's opinion is clear.A. The information presented isup-to-date.D. The language used is vivid.C. Different views on the topic arepresented.第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
