Then he noticed some people who were busy stealing (偷) his things.He called the police right away. The policeman asked: “Are there any thieves (小偷)in your house?”Charlie replied “no” and explained what was happening.The police said: “All patrol cars (巡逻车) have gone out, and a policeman will go to your house when one is free.”Charlie hung up, waited 30 seconds, and then called the police again.“Hello, I just called a short while ago because there were people stealing things from my shed.I want to let you know that they’re not a problem anymore because I’ve just shot every one of them.”Charlie then hung up the phone.

Many people have a special number that they hope will bring them good luck.In Chinese culture, some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.For example, the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the word for “making a fortune”. So, people consider it a very lucky number. Some people will even spend a lot of money to have 8s in their phone numbers or vehicle license plate (车牌照) numbers. The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics began at 8:08 p.m. on August 8, 2008.The number 9 is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China. There were nine dragons on emperors’ robes (龙袍) and Chinese myth held that the dragon has nine children. The number 9 also stands for “long lasting”. That’s why a man always proposes to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.So what’s a “bad luck” number in China? It might be 4. Many Chinese people see 4 as a “bad luck” number because it sounds similar to the character for “death”.Because of this, many buildings skip the fourth floor, and simply call it the fifth floor. In Hong Kong, some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4, such as, 4, 14, 24, 34 and all 40-49 floors. Some buildings also skip the 13th floor, as this is considered an unlucky number in many Christian countries. As a result, a building whose highest floor is 50 may have only 35 physical floors.53. How do lucky or unlucky numbers come in Chinese culture?They come mostly of __.A. people’s hope for good luckB. people’s belief in certain numbersC. similar sounds of Chinese numbers and wordsD. Chinese traditions54. What can we learn from the passage?A. Many people like the number 8 because it can bring them much money.B. Much money is som etimes spent on 8s in people’s car numbers in China.C. 9 is a lucky number in Chinese culture for only one reason.D. 4 is an unlucky number because it predicts death to the Chinese.55. What is the passage mainly about?A. Good luck and bad luck in China.B. Lucky and unlucky numbers in China.C. Some facts with lucky or unlucky numbers.D. Lucky and unlucky numbers in culture.DThe webs that spiders build to catch insects seem weak. However, the strength of spider thread is greater than steel. Webs can even stand up to very strong storms.Now a team, headed by Markus Buehler, a scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has worked out why the spider web is so strong. It is not just the strength of the thread, but the clever design of the web. The key to a web’s success is its ability to keep its shape and strength even after some of the threads break, says Buehler. The scientists found the thread itself has the ability to become softer or firmer. So it can hold different types of heavy things and bear a localized damage (损坏). This localized damage can simply be repaired, rather than replaced, or even left alone if the web continues to work as before.Buehler’s research is mostly theoretical (理论上的), based on computer modeling of material properties (特性) and how they respond to stresses. But in order to test the findings, he and his team literally went into the field. They tested actual spider webs by poking and pulling at them. In all cases, damage was limited to the immediate area they disturbed.In tests, scientists also used three other strong materials made into the same webs. The spider thread was six times stronger than any other material. More surprisingly, when the scientists took away up to 10 percent of the threads from different places, t he web didn’t become any weaker. Actually, it became up to 10 percent stronger.The spider web’s clever design gives scientists many new ideas. The findings might be used not just for physical objects such as safer buildings, but also in the design of networked systems. For example, a computer experiencing a virus attack could be designed to shut down at once, before its problems get worse. “It’s a really good chance,” said Buehler. “It may give us some new ideas for engineering.”56. Where does the strength of the web threads come from?A. Their high stickiness.B. Their high firmness .C. Their clever design.D. Their ability to change in quality.57. Which word is closest in meaning to the word “disturb” in the 3rd paragraph?A. Upsetting.B. Changing.C. Moving.D. Hitting.58. How many different experiments did Buehler’s team do to test their findings?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.59. What can be the best title for the passage?A. Spider Webs Are Stronger than SteelB. Spider Webs Hold Valuable SecretsC. How Spider Webs Get Their StrengthD. What Strong Spider Webs Mean to Us七、阅读还原句子Two men are in the same room of a hospital. 60_______. One man has to lie on his back all day.Every day, the man sitting up by the window tells the other about things outside.“Some children are throwing bread to the ducks on the lake.”“61_______.” The other man is happy to hear about all the activities and colors of the world outside.Days and weeks pass. 62_______.

What is it? Many people have a special number that they hope will bring them good luck．In Chinese culture, some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chines e word that the number sounds similar to．For example, the word for the number 8sounds similar to the word for"making a fortune"．So, people consider it a very lucky number．Some people will even spend a lot of money t o have 8s in their phone numbers or vehicle license plate （车牌照） numbers．The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics began at 8: 08p．m．on Aug ust 8, 2008．The number 9is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China．There were nine dragons on emperors'robes （龙袍） and Chinese myth held that the dragon has nine children．The number 9also stands for "long lasting"．That's why a man always proposes to a woman with 99or 999roses．So what's a"bad luck"number in China? It might be（1）Many Chinese people see 4as a"bad luck"number because it sounds similar to the character for"death"．Because of this，many buildings skip the fourth floor，and simply call it the fifth floor．In Hong Kong，some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4，such as，4，14，24，34and all 40-49floors．Some buildings also skip the 13th floor，as this is considered an unlucky number in many Christian countries．As a result，a building whose highest floor is 50may have only 35physical floors．53．How do lucky or u nlucky numbers come in Chinese culture？They come mostly of________．A people's hope for good luck.B people's belief in certain numbers．C similar soun ds of Chinese numbers and words ．D Chinese traditions．（2）What can we learn from the passage？________A Many people like the number 8because it can bring them much money．B Much mon ey is sometimes spent on 8s in people's car numbers in China．C 9is a lucky number in Chinese culture for only one reason．D 4is an unlucky number because it predicts death to the Chinese．（3）What is the passage mainly about？________A Good luck and bad luck in China．B Lucky and unlucky numbers in China．C So me facts with lucky or unlucky numbers．D Lucky and unlucky numbers in culture．28.The webs that spiders build to catch insects seem weak．However, the strength of spider thr ead is greater than steel．Webs can even stand up to very strong storms．Now a team, headed by Markus Buehler, a scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Techn ology, has worked out why the spider web is so strong．It is not just the strength of the threa d, but the clever design of the web．The key to a web's success is its ability to keep its shape and strength even after some of the threads break, says Buehler．The scientists found the th read itself has the ability to become softer or firmer．So it can hold different types of heavy t hings and bear a localized damage （损坏）．This localized damage can simply be repaired, rather than replaced, or even left alone i f the web continues to work as before．Buehler's research is mostly theoretical （理论上的）, based on computer modeling of material properties （特性） and how they respond to stresses．But in order to test the findings, he and his team lite rally went into the field．They tested actual spider webs by poking and pulling at them．In all cases, damage was limited to the immediate area they disturbed．In tests, scientists also used three other strong materials made into the same webs．The s pider thread was six times stronger than any other material．More surprisingly, when the scientists took away up to 10percent of the threads from different places, the web didn't becom e any weaker．Actually, it became up to 10 percent stronger．The spider web's clever design gives scientists many new ideas．The findings might be us ed not just for physical objects such as safer buildings, but also in the design of networked sy stems．For example, a computer experiencing a virus attack could be designed to shut down at once, before its problems get worse．"It's a really good chance, "said Buehler．"It may gi ve us some new ideas for engineering．"（1）Where does the strength of the web threads come from？________A Their high stickiness．B Their high firmness．C Their clever design．D The ir ability to change in quality．（2）Which word is closest in meaning to the word"disturb"in the 3rd paragraph？________ A Upsetting． B Changing． C Moving． D Hitting．（3）How many different experiments did Buehler's team do to test their findings？________ A One． B Two． C Three． D Four．（4）What can be the best title for the passage？________A Spider Webs Are Stronger than Steel．B Spider Webs Hold Valuable Secrets．C H ow Spider Webs Get Their Strength ．D What Strong Spider Webs Mean to Us．七、阅读还原句子（共8分，每小题8分）阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项．29.

He wrote stories about the interesting people he met. On her fifteenth birthday, Inez could hardly believe it when her father announced that she was old enough to go with him on one of his trips! He said his next story would be about salt mining in Europe. Inez had never thought much about salt, she didn't know what to expect, but she knew she would love being with her father.Months later, when Inez and her father arrived at the salt mine, they found themselves walking into the middle of a busy workday. Mrs. Walker, the owner, said she would not be available to talk until the workday was over. She suggested that Inez and her father should help out so Inez's father would have first-hand experience for his story. Before Inez realized what was happening, she was in the factory.This was not what she had imagined her trip would be like.People rushed past her carrying hammers, nails, and wood to make boxes for the salt. Everyone seemed to be in such a hurry. As another newly constructed box was pushed at her, Inez spread a label with glue and stuck it on the side of the box. When she had agreed to go with her father on his newspaper assignment, she had pictured an adventure, not hard labor.Inez looked at the salt covering her father's once-blue pants and sighed. She could taste the salt in her mouth and smell it in the air. Inez had been using salt all her life, but she had never imagined that it existed in such quantities or that it was so hard to package.Inez's father rubbed his hands together and grinned at her. "I know this probably isn't what you had in mind, " he said, "but sometimes the best days are the ones that don't go as planned."Best? she wondered. She had learned two lessons today. One was to value every grain of salt to fall from a shaker. The other was to hear the details before agreeing to go on a job with her father!(1) Why does Inez's father travel around the world?A. He relaxes after he finishes writing.B. He enjoys moving around from place to place.C. He likes to take his family on adventure trips.D. He needs to collect information for stories.(2) What job does Inez help to do in the salt mine?A. To attach labels to the box.B. To interview the workers.C. To carry salt packages.D. To package the salt.(3) How does Inez feel while working at the salt mine?A. Happy.B. Inspired.C. Disappointed.D. Annoyed.(4) Why does the author most likely write this story?A. To discuss what it is like when a child travels with a parent.B. To describe how places around the world are different.C. To explain which tools are used when packaging salt.D. To show that sometimes events turn out differently than expected.18、【来源】 2012年北京丰台区高三二模第18~20题Dear Mr. Whitman,I am writing to thank you for allowing Maria and me to use your office as a workspace as well as to praise your wonderful organizational skills.

Every time we needed office supplies, such as pens, highlighters, envelopes, or paper, we were able to find them with ease. Your donations of the materials and postage needed to send over one hundred letters are most appreciated. We could not have done this without you.You have helped us greatly this past week. Your generosity will not only provide us with the opportunity to make this trip possible, but will also be a great benefit both to the children in Pucallpa and us.

With all that traffic in and out, exotic species（外来物种） have plenty of opportunities to reach the islands. According to biologists, exotic species are the number one threat to the state's economy, environment, and way of life.The question in Hawaii is, can the invaders be stopped?Quarantines are one way to do this. Quarantine is the process of isolating animals or products. In Hawaii, pet dogs and cats coming into the state remain in a special holding facility for four months tomake sure they don't have rabies（狂犬病）. Many agricultural products are also quarantined to see if they are carrying insect pests or plant diseases.Inspection is a second way to stop biological invaders. At airports, borders, and shipping ports, inspectors examine passengers and their baggage to see if they are carrying exotic species. The inspectors also destroy fruits, vegetables, or other goods that might be carrying harmful pests or diseases. Specially trained dogs also smell goods in the ship for exotic species.What if an exotic species slips by inspectors? Then efforts are made to control the invader. In Hawaii, government agencies control invaders by setting live traps around wildlife shelters and other places. At Haleakala National Park employees have built miles of fences to keep out exotic pigs and goats. For years these animals ate and walked over native rainforest plants, but the fences have helped reverse（逆转）this damage. Now native plants grow in places that were bare rock only a short time ago.In some cases biological control helps to solve the exotic species problems. It is the science of controlling one invader with another. In the early 1900s, several exotic predators（肉食动物） were imported to Hawaii to eat a harmful exotic pest called the sugarcane leafhopper. The insect was destroying 70, 000 tons of sugar a year, but the predators brought it under control.The efforts of these scientists and other people are vitally important. In Hawaii alone, 10, 000 different species of native plants and animals still need to be protected. Many of these are found nowhere else on earth.

On the first day the professor marched up to the blackboard, looked through his notes, cleared his throat, and began. Fowkes was the only student in the course. Once Fowkes fell ill and missed a class. When he returned, to Fowkes's astonishment, the professor began to deliver not the next lecture in the sequence but the one after. Had he lectured to an empty hall in the absence of his only student? It was perfectly possible. This story happened in 1930s, when books were short and expensive.Today, professors continue to lecture and students to listen much as they did. It's time for us to abandon the lecture system and turn to methods that really work.Attending lectures is passive learning, at least for inexperienced listeners. Active learning, in which students write essays or perform experiments and then have their work evaluated by an instructor, is far more beneficial for those who have not yet fully learned how to learn. Most students learn best by engaging in debate. They need small discussion classes that demand a joint effort of teacher and students rather than classes in which one person, however learned, expresses his or her own ideas.The lecture system harms professors as well. It reduces feedback to a minimum, so that the lecturer can neither judge how well students understand the material nor benefit from their questions or comments. Questions that require the speaker to clarify unclear points and comments that challenge inadequately constructed arguments are indispensable to scholarship.Without them, the liveliest mind becomes dull.If lectures make so little sense, why have they been allowed to continue? The truth is that lectures are easier on everyone than debates. Lectures give some students an opportunity to sit back and let the professor run the show. In a classroom where everyone contributes, students are less able to hide and professors have less room to show off how smart they are.Worse still, the lectures too frequently come at the wrong end of the students' educational careers --during the first two years, when they most need close, even individual, instruction. If lecture classes were restricted to junior and senior undergraduates and to graduate students, who are more academically independent and more capable of working on their own, they would be far less destructive of students' interests and enthusiasms.

The snack came about because of a complaint and an argument. An American named George Crum is credited with inventing potato chips.1In 1853, Crum worked in Saratoga Springs as the chef. One day a customer sent his serving of fried potatoes back to the chef, complaining that they should have been sliced thinner. Chef Crum prepared another serving of thinner fried potatoes. The customer again returned them. By this time, Crum was angry. He thinly sliced a large number of potatoes and then salted and friedthem.2To Crum's surprise, the customer loved them. The man even requested more. Afterwards, the customer left the restaurant to tell everyone about the delicious new food.3What is known is that Crum named his new dish potato crunches, " although locally they became known as Saratoga Chips. When Crum opened a new restaurant, he put baskets of his chips on all the tables. Some people claimed, however, that potato crunches were not even on the menu. People who are aware of the success of the potatochip industry think it strange that Crum never patented his Saratoga Chips.An important advance in the potato chip industry came in 1926, when Laura Scudder developed the waxed paper bag at her potato chip factory. Scudder had her workers take home sheets of waxed paper to make into small bags. The workers used their clothing irons to iron the sheets of paper. The heat from the irons quickly melted the wax, causing the sheets of paper to sticktogether.4The tops were then sealed with heated irons. The bags kept the chips fresher so they could be shipped to customers far away.Three years later, a new type of fryer allowed further development in the cooking of potato chips. With the continuous fryer, many more chips could be cooked at the same time. Today, people all over the country enjoy the tasty snack.5A. In the early 1900s, things changed, and several companiesaround the United States began making potato chips.B.

It felt like my heart 39 in the moment ofthose icy words.That evening I broke the news to my parents. Seeing how 40 I was and how sincere I was in wanting to go to college, they offered to help. Later, they found a small college whose financial status would permit anyone to41 . In other words, they would take anyone with a pulse. I feltlike such a 42 .

In fact, deep down in my heart I knew that I truly wanted to be a social worker, but that 46 require a college degree.What should I do? I simply had to 47 again. With all the 48 I could gather, I enrolled in acommunity college and took one course in their night school. I was49 when I received my grade. I got an A!

On her fifteenth birthday, Inez could hardly believe it when her father announced thatshe was old enough to go with him on one of his trips! He said his next story would be about salt mining in Europe. Inez had never thought much about salt, she didn’t know what to expect, but she knew she would love being with her father.Months later, when Inez and her father arrived at the salt mine,they found themselves walking into the middle of a busy workday. Mrs. Walker, the owner, said she would not be available to talk until the workday was over. She suggested that Inez and her father should help out so Inez’s father would have first-hand experience for his story. Before Inez realized what was happening, she was in the factory. This wasnot what she had imagined her trip would be like.People rushed past her carrying hammers, nails, and wood to make boxes for the salt. Everyone seemed to be in such a hurry. As anothernewly constructed box was pushed at her, Inez spread a label with glue and stuck it on the side of the box. When she had agreed to go with her father on his newspaper assignment, she had pictured an adventure, not hard labor.Inez looked at the salt covering her father’s once-blue pants and sighed. She could taste the salt in her mouth and2smell it in the air. Inez had been using salt all her life, but she had never imagined that it existed in such quantities or that it was so hard to package.Inez’s father rubbed his hands together and grinned at her. “I know this probably isn’t what you had in mind,” hesaid, “but sometimes the best days are the ones that don’t go as planned.”Best? she wondered. She had learned two lessons today. One was to value every grain of salt to fall from a shaker.The other was to hear the details before agreeing to go on a job with her father!56. Why does Inez’s father travel around the world?A. He relaxes after he finishes writing.B. He enjoys moving around from place to place.C. He likes to take his family on adventure trips.D. He needs to collect information for stories.57. What job does Inez help to do in the salt mine?A. To attach labels to the box.B. To interview the workers.C. To carry salt packages.D. To package the salt.58. How does Inez feel while working at the salt mine?A. Happy.B. Inspired.C. Disappointed.D. Annoyed.59.Why does the author most likely write this story?A. To discuss what it is like when a child travels with a parent.B. To describe how places around the world are different.C. To explain which tools are used when packaging salt.D. To show that sometimes events turn out differently than expected.BDear Mr. Whitman,I am writing to thank you for allowing Maria and me to use youroffice as a workspace as well as to praise your wonderful organizational skills. Maria and I, as you know, have been in your office many times in the past few days writing letters to raise money for our community service trip to Pucallpa, Peru, where we will work with poor children. Not only did you allow us to use your office space, but also you helped us greatly by providing us with a list of possible contributors. Without your assistance, I don’t think we would have been able to raise enough money for such a trip.We recognize that accepting our request for office space required flexibility on your part, but because of your excellent organizationalskills and assistance we were able to accomplish our objectives without disrupting your daily routine. Every time we needed office supplies, such as pens, highlighters, envelopes, or paper, we were able to find them with ease. Your donations of the materials and postage needed to sendover one hundred letters are most appreciated. We could not have done this without you.You have helped us greatly this past week. Your generosity will not only provide us with the opportunity to make this trip possible, but will also be a great benefit both to the children in Pucallpa and us. Again, we thank you for your help.Sincerely,Amy Fynmore60.

The purpose of this letter is ________.A. to request informationB. to express appreciationC. to offer assistanceD. to ask forgivenessCHawaii is an important trading center and about six million tourists visit there every year. With all that traffic in and out, exoticspecies(外来物种) have plenty of opportunities to reach the islands. According to biologists, exotic species are the number one threat to the state’s economy, environment, and way of life.The question in Hawaii is, can the invaders be stopped?Quarantines are one way to do this. Quarantine is the process of isolating animals or products. In Hawaii, pet dogs and cats coming into the state remain in a special holding facility for four months to make sure they don’t have rabies(狂犬病). Many agricultural products are also quarantined to see ifthey are carrying insect pests or plant diseases.Inspection is a second way to stop biological invaders. At airports, borders, and shipping ports, inspectors examine passengers and their baggage to see if they are carrying exotic species. The inspectors also destroy fruits, vegetables, or other goods that might be carrying harmful pests or diseases. Specially trained dogs also smell goods in the ship for exotic species.What if an exotic species slips by inspectors? Then efforts are made to control the invader. In Hawaii, government agencies control invaders by setting livetraps around wildlife shelters and other places. At Haleakala National Park employees have built miles of fences to keep out exotic pigs and goats. For years these animals ate and walked over native rainforest plants, but the fences have helped reverse(逆转) this damage. Now native plants grow in places thatwere bare rock only a short time ago.In some cases biological control helps to solve the exotic species problems. It is the science of controlling one invader with another. In the early 1900s, several exotic predators(肉食动物) were imported to Hawaii to eat a harmfulexotic pest called the sugarcane leafhopper. The insect was destroying 70,000 tons of sugar a year, but the predators brought it under control.The efforts of these scientists and other people are vitally important. In Hawaii alone,10,000 different species of native plants and animals still need to be protected. Many of these are found nowhere else on earth. By stopping the spread of the biological invaders, we not only protect ourselves, but we also protect the many other native speciesthat make our planet such a special place to live.64. This passage is mainly about ________.A. the methods for preventing exotic speciesB. the effects of exotic invasion on HawaiiC. the problems faced by the Hawaiian economyD. the role of biologists in controlling native species65. Hawaii is at a great risk of invasion by exotic species, because ________.A. many agriculture products grow thereB. regular inspections of animals are uselessC. millions of people go to Hawaii each yearD. biological control efforts have not worked66. Which of the following statements is true?A. Animals and products are put in quarantines before entering Hawaii.B. Trained dogs are used to examine passengers and their baggage.C. Livetraps and fences are set to protect exotic pigs and goats.D. Some exotic predators are imported to destroy invaders’ food.67. What argument does the author make in the last paragraph?A. Hawaii has the most unknown species of plants on earth.4B. Humans have a responsibility to control exotic species.C. Scientists make the difference to the species protection.D. Species should be allowed to exist without human interruption.DMy friend Fowkes, tells a story of a class he took.
