him，and he was always proud of my success．If I won a spelling contest at school，he was on the top of the world．Later in life whenever I got a promotion，I would call my father right away and he would hurry to tell all his friends．In 1970，when I was named President of the Ford Motor Company，I don't know which of us was more excited．Like many native Italians，my parents were very open with their feelings and their love﹣﹣﹣not only at home，but also in public．Most of my friends would never hug their fathers．But I hugged and kissed my dad at every opportunity﹣﹣﹣nothing could have felt more natural．He was a curious man who was always trying new things．He was the first person in Allentown to buy a motorcycle．Unfortunately，my father and his motorcycle didn't get along too well．He fell off it so often that he got rid of it just a month after buying it．As a result，he never again trusted any vehicle with less than four wheels．Because of that motorcycle，I wasn't allowed to have a bicycle when I was growing up．Whenever I wanted to ride a bike，I had to borrow one from a friend．On the other hand，my father let me drive a car as soon as I turned sixteen．21．When I won a contest at school，my father would．A．tell all his friends about itB．feel most happy over itC．get very surprised itD．hug and kiss me22．Which of the following statements shows that my father liked to know about new things．A．He was always proud of my success．B．He was the first person in town to buy a motorcycle．C．I wasn't allowed to have a car when I was growing up．D．He was very open with his feelings and his love．23．My father trusted no vehicle with less than four wheels because．A．he had trouble in riding his motorcycle．B．he thought that cars were faster than motorcycle．C．he liked every new model made by the Ford Motor Company．D．he did not like the way I always borrowed bicycles from friend．24．Which of the following sentences is NOT true．A．My father was always proud of what I did．B．When I was just 16I was allowed to drive a car．C．My father rode his motorcycle in the streets of Allentown every day．D．My father bought a motorcycle，but got rid of it because he fell off it so often．25．（8分）Keeping fish as pets is a popular hobby．Fish take up very little room，are inexpensive to feed，and provide an interesting and colorful display in any room．A tank，or an aquarium，must be chosen carefully．Many new aquarium owners buy too many fish for their tanks．Fish can't be crowded．Two fish can live comfortably in each gallon of water，only ten fish can live in a five﹣gallon tank．Can you see why a goldfish would not live long in a tiny，round bowl？If too many fish are kept together，they will not have enough oxygen or room to swim about freely．They will have more diseases．Also，some kinds of fish can't bekept together．As your interest in fish grows，the number of fish you have may grow，too．Then you may want to invest in another tank．If you start with a ten﹣gallon aquarium，what kind of fish would be best？The two major groups of tropical fish are those that lay eggs and those that give birth to live young．If you want to raise young fish，guppies would be the best choice because they can produce many babies in a short time．You can buy fish and aquariums in most pet stores．Ask the owners to help you choose the right fish．You can also find many books about tropical fish in the library．25．If nine fish live in three gallons of water，the fish may．A．breathe easilyB．swim about freelyC．get illD．not get enough to eat26．The underlined phrases"invest in"in Para 3is closest in meaning to．A．buyB．borrowC．makeD．sell27．In the passage the author provides us with some useful tips on how to keep fish well EXCEPT．A．selecting a suitable tank sizeB．feeding enough oxygen into the tankC．choosing the right group of fishD．reading some books about fish28．From the passage we can know．A．very few people are interested in keeping fish．B．the size of your tank decides how many fish you can keep．C．guppies are a kind of fish that are good at laying eggs．D．you can raise different kinds of fish together．29．（8分）Malls are popular places for Americans to go．Some people spend so much time at malls that they are called mall rats．Mall rats shop until they drop in the hundreds of stores under one roof．People like malls for many reasons．They feel safe because malls have police stations or private security guards．Parking is usually free，and the weather inside is always fine．The newest malls have beautiful rest area with waterfalls and large green trees．The largest mall in the United States is the Mall of America in Minnesota．It covers 4.2million square feet．It has 350stores，eight night clubs，and a seven﹣acre park!There are parking spaces for 12，750cars．About 750，000people shop every week．The first indoor mall in the United States was built in 1965in Edina，Minnesota．People loved doing all their shopping in one place．More malls were built all over the country．Now，malls are like town centers where people come to do many things．They shop，of course．They also eat in food houses that have food from all over the world．They see movies at theatres．Some people even get their daily exercise by doing the new sport of mall walking．Others go to malls to meet friends．In some malls，people can see a doctor or a dentist and even attend church．In other words，people can do just about everything in malls．Now residents can actually live in their favorite shopping centre．29．Those are called mall rats．A．who are busy stealing in the mallB．who have visited the biggest mallsC．who are often found busy shopping in mallsD．who live under the roof of the mall30．Why have malls become so popular？A．Because people can do everything there．B．Because people can do many other things besides shopping for all they need．C．Because people believe that malls are much safer places．D．Because people enjoy the fresh air and can have a good rest there．31．Nowadays，malls are．A．large shopping centers which also act as town centersB．large parks with shopsC．the most popular place Americans go toD．town centers32．According to the passage，people CANNOT find in a mall in America．A．a police stationB．a churchC．a restaurantD．a sports centre．33．（6分）"Long time no see"is a very interesting sentence．When I first read this sentence from an American friend's email，I laughed．I thought it was a perfect example of Chinglish．Obviously，it is a word﹣by﹣word literal translation of the Chinese greetings with a ruled English grammar and structure!Later on，my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting．I was too thrilled to believe her．Her words could not convince me at all．So I did a research on google．com．To my surprise，there are over 60 thousand web pages containing"Long time no see．"This sentence has been widely used in emails，letters，newspapers，movies，books，or any other possible places．Though it is sort of informal，it is part of the language that Americans use daily．Ironically，if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word，the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected．Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence．Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan's movies．In the 1930s，Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a worldwide famous Chinese detective named"Charlie Chan"on wide screens．Detective Chan likes to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius．"Long time no see"was his trademark．Soon after Charlie Chan，"Long time no see"became a popular phrase in the real world with thanks to the popularity ofthese movies．Some scholars refer to America as a huge pot of stew．All kinds of culture are mixed in the stew together，and they change the color and taste of each other．American Chinese，though a minority ethnic（少数民族的成员）group in the United States，is also contributing some changes to the stew!Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed stew．You can have some other examples than adoptions from Chinese，such as pizza from Italian，susi from Japanese，and déjà vu from French etc．There is a long list!Americans do not just simply borrow something from others．They will modify it and make it their own，so you would not be surprised to find a tofu and peanut butter hamburger in a restaurant，or to buy a bottle of iced Chinese green tea with honey in a grocery store．Since Americans appreciate Chinese culture more and more nowadays，I believe more Chinese words will become American English in the future．In this way the American stew keeps adding richness and flavor．33．The writer himself felt surprised at．A．the Chinglish expression"Long time no see"B．"Long time no see"used as standard American EnglishC．so many literal translation of the expressions used in AmericaD．finding out Americans use the expression every day34．The word"stew"in the 4th paragraph probably means．A．mixed cultureB．Confucius'wordsC．a kind of cooked dishD．American changing literature35．The main idea of the passage is that．A．some Chinese expressions are introduced into EnglishB．you'll not be surprised at a tofu in a restaurant in AmericaC．some American expressions can be used in ChinaD．American English keep being enriched from different cultures．根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．36．（10分）A simple life means getting rid of many of the things you do so that you can spend more time with people you love and do the things you love．（36）It's often a journey of two steps forward and one backward．Evaluate your time．（37）What things do you do from the time you wake up to the time you go to sleep？Make a list，and evaluate whether they're in line with your priorities．If not，remove them and focus on what's important．Redesign your day．Limit your communications．Our lives these days are filled with a vast flow of communications：email，cell phones，paper mail，Twitter，forums，and more．（38）Instead，set a limit on your communications：only deal with emails at certain times of the day．Limit phone calls to certain times too．It is the same with other communications．Set a schedule and stick to it．Try living without a car．OK，this isn't something I've done，but many others have．（39）Walk，bike，or take public transportation．It reduces expenses and gives you time to think．A car is also very complicated，needing not only car payments，but insurance，maintenance，repairs，gas and more．（40）If you rid your home of stuff，you might find you don't need so much space．I'm not saying you should live on a boat （although I know some people who happily do so），but if you can be comfortable in a smaller home，it will not only be less expensive，but easier to maintain，and greatly simplify your life．A．Consider a smaller home．B．Have a place for everything．C．How do you spend your day？D．It's something I would do if I didn't have kids．E．They can take up your whole day if you let them be．F．However，getting to simplicity isn't always a simple process．G．Most people don't know what"enough"is，and thus they keep buying more．第三节：完形填空阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白的最佳选项．41．（30分）I lost my sight when I was 4 years old in an accident．Now I

break（允许他们中途休息喝咖啡）"的"目的"是"改善工人的工作环境"，所以需要的是表示目的非谓语动词；在非谓语动词中只有动词不定式可以做目的状语，故选B．【点评】首先判断选项中的动词在句中是以谓语还是非谓语形式出现，然后根据选项在句中的功能结合非谓语的基本用法做出合理的判断．要关注常见非谓语动词的搭配．20．（1分）（2017春•东安区校级期中）It is recommended that the project _____ until all the preparations have been made．（）A．is not started B．will not be startedC．not be started D．is not to be started【分析】据建议，这个项目要等到所有的准备工作都做好了再开始．【解答】答案是C．本题考查recommend 与名词性从句中连用时从句中的虚拟语气．英语中表示"建议、要求、命令"的词与名词性从句连用，从句中的动词用"should+动词原形"，should 可以省略，本句动词recommend 表示"建议"，that 引导了主语从句，所以本题答案是C；【点评】在掌握虚拟语气的规则的基础上，判断题干属于什么类型的虚拟，然后根据语境，选用恰当的动词形式表达虚拟．第二节：阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项．并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．21．（8分）（2017春•东安区校级期中）My father and I were very close，I loved pleasing him，and he was always proud of my success．If I won a spelling contest at school，he was on the top of the world．Later in life whenever I got a promotion，I would call my father right away and he would hurry to tell all his friends．In 1970，when I was named President of the Ford Motor Company，I don't know which of us was more excited．Like many native Italians，my parents were very open with their feelings and their love﹣﹣﹣not only at home，but also in public．Most of my friends would never hug their fathers．But I hugged and kissed my dad at every opportunity ﹣﹣﹣nothing could have felt more natural．He was a curious man who was always trying new things．He was the first person in Allentown to buy a motorcycle．Unfortunately，my father and his motorcycle didn't get along too well．He fell off it so often that he got rid of it just a month after buying it．As a result，he never again trusted any vehicle with less than four wheels．Because of that motorcycle，I wasn't allowed to have a bicycle when I was growing up．Whenever I wanted to ride a bike，I had to borrow one from a friend．On the other hand，my father let me drive a car as soon as I turned sixteen．21．When I won a contest at school，my father would B．A．tell all his friends about itB．feel most happy over itC．get very surprised itD．hug and kiss me22．Which of the following statements shows that my father liked to know about new things B．A．He was always proud of my success．B．He was the first person in town to buy a motorcycle．C．I wasn't allowed to have a car when I was growing up．D．He was very open with his feelings and his love．23．My father trusted no vehicle with less than four wheels because A．A．he had trouble in riding his motorcycle．B．he thought that cars were faster than motorcycle．C．he liked every new model made by the Ford Motor Company．D．he did not like the way I always borrowed bicycles from friend．24．Which of the following sentences is NOT true C．A．My father was always proud of what I did．B．When I was just 16I was allowed to drive a car．C．My father rode his motorcycle in the streets of Allentown every day．D．My father bought a motorcycle，but got rid of it because he fell off it so often．【分析】本文叙述了作者的父亲是个开朗的人，讲述了父亲的一些故事，并交代了自己和父亲的关系很融洽．【解答】21 B 细节理解题．根据文章第一段I loved pleasing him，and he was always proud of my success．If I won a spelling contest at school，he was on top of the world可知当作者赢得比赛胜利的时候，他为我而自豪，故选B．22．B 细节理解题．根据文章第二段He was a curious man who was always trying new things．He was the first person in Allentown to buy a motorcycle．可知他是第一个买摩托车的人，总是想尝试新的东西，所以他是一个好奇心比较重的人，故选B．。

牡一中2017级高三学年3.14测试英语试题本试卷分第I卷（选择题）和第II卷（非选择题）两部分，满分120分，考试时间90分钟。

第Ⅰ卷第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AChristmas is a time for eating great food, giving and receiving presents, and most importantly spending time with your family watching some classic Christmas movies.The Grinch (2000)This is a Christmas must-watch and one of Jim Carrey's best performances. It was also originally a nursery tale book written by Dr Seuss. It's the story of a green monster who wants to ruin Christmas but who in the end discovers the power of love and generosity. I promise it's a great film with plenty of laughs along the way.Love Actually (2003)While this is not a personal favourite of mine, people in the UK absolutely love this film. It has many featuring actors and actresses. It might be a little difficult to follow as there are complex plots, so I recommend watching a translated version or enabling subtitles (字幕) in your native language. However, the heart-warming elements of the film make it worth watching. Home Alone (1990)This amusing masterwork is one of my favourite films of all time. It tells the story of a boy, Kevin, who is left alone in his house when his large family forgets to take him on vacation with them. While the families are away, burglars try to rob the house and Kevin must protect his home by setting traps. The trips, falls and traps will have you laughing out loud as you watch a 10-year-old boy beat two grown men.Miracle on 34th Street (1994)You can't have Christmas in an English-speaking country without watching this movie. It's not funny like Home Alone or The Grinch, but it is incredibly touching. It's about a man who claims to be Santa, but nobody believes him except a lawyer anda little girl. The story-line may seem a little childish but you can enjoy it at any age.21. Which film is adapted from a fairy tale?A. The Grinch.B. Home Alone.C. Love Actually.D. Miracle on 34th Street.22. What is Home Alone mainly about?A. An unsuccessful family vacation.B. A boy protecting home by himself.C. A terrible suffering to a little boy.D. A 10-year-old boy's practical jokes.23. Why is Miracle on 34th Street so popular?A. Owing to its moving plots.B. Because of its funny story.C. Due to its childish storyline.D. For its famous actors and actresses.BLearning any language is hard, but learning English can be especially challenging. Why? Because native speakers use the language in some ways that textbooks could never describe. In particular, words that British people use cause many language students to scratch(抓) their heads.Here’s an example: You overhear(无意中听到) an Englishman calling someone a “wazzock”. But what exactly is a wazzock? This word, in fact, means a foolish person, although there’s nothing about it that would help you guess that. There are many strange terms like this in British English – the Oxford English Dictionary would be much smaller without these odd (古怪的) usages filling its pages.How can these odd words be explained? Part of the answer is the British sense of humor. The British don’t like to take things too seriously, and this is obvious through many British words and phrases. For example, to “spend a penny” means to use the bathroom. It refers to the days when people had to pay a penny to use a public toilet.In an interview for the BBC’s website, British linguist David Crystal suggested there may be historical reasons for the number of odd words and phrases in British English. He thinks that they began in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. This was a great age for the theater, when Shakespeare and other writers worked hard to keep up with the demand for new plays. The theat er’s popularity also created an incentive (刺激) to invent new words.With this in mind, perhaps Shakespeare and his peers are to blame for unusual British words such as “codswallop” and “balderdash” –which both mean “nonsense”.While these strange words may be confusing to non-native speakers, they certainly make studying English a lot more interesting.24. According to the text, why may non-native speakers find it hard to learn English?A. Dictionaries don’t explain odd usages of many words.B. A great many strange words make no sense to them.C. The English textbooks they study are usually out of date.D. They are unable to understand the humor in conversations.25. With the example of “spend a penny”, the author intends to _________.A. explain one reason of how some strange phrases were createdB. complain about the meaning and background of the phraseC. show what typical British sense of humour isD. show British people’s attitude toward strange words26. According to David Crystal, _________.A. many of the words that Shakespeare invented were nonsenseB. Shakespeare’s works are bo ring because of the odd words involvedC. the theatre’s success in the 17th century inspired the birth of many odd wordsD. the odd words in Shakespeare’s plays contributed a lot to the theatre’s popularity27. What is the text mainly about?A. The development of the British English.B. Shakespeare’s influence on British English.C. The origin and meanings of British humour.D. Some reasons for the large number of odd words in British English.CWhen I was in the fourth grade, I worked part-time as a paperboy. Mrs. Stanley was one of my customers. She'd watch me coming down her street, and by the time I'd biked up to her doorstep, there would be a cold drink waiting. I'd sit and drink while she talked.Mrs.Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband, "Mr. Stanley and I went shopping this morning." she'd say. The first time she said that, soda (汽水) went up my nose.I told my father how Mrs. Stanley talked as if Mr. Stanley were still alive. Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile, and maybe she'd work it out of her system. So that's what I did, and it turned out Dad was right. After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery (墓地).I finally quit delivering newspapers and didn't see Mrs. Stanley for several years. Then we crossed paths at a church fund-raiser(募捐活动). She was spooning mashed potatoes and looking happy. Four years before, she'd had to offer her paperboy a drink to have someone to talk with. Now she had friends. Her husband was gone, but life went on.I live in the city now, and my paperboy is a lady named Edna with three kids. She asks me how I'm doing. When I don't say "fine", she sticks around to hear my problems. She's lived in the city most of her life, but she knows about community. Community isn't so much a place as it is a state of mind. You find it whenever people ask how you're doing because they care, and not because they're getting paid to do so. Sometimes it's good to just smile, nod your head and listen.28. Why did soda go up the author's nose one time?A. He was talking fast.B. He was absent-minded.C. He was in a hurry.D. He was shocked.29. Why did the author sit and listen to Mrs. Stanley according to Paragraph 3?A. He took the chance to rest.B. He wanted to be helpful.C. He enjoyed the drink.D. He tried to please his dad.30. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase "work it out of her system"?A. speak out about her pastB. move out of the neighborhoodC. turn to her old friendsD. recover from her sadness31. What does the author think people in a community should do?A. Care about one another.B. Depend on each other.C. Pay for others’ helpD. Open up to others.D. The driverless cars.DThe University of Birmingham is the first excellent UK Russell Group university to announce that it will accept the "Gaokao" exam for high-flying Chinese students wishing to join its. undergraduate courses in 2019. High school students who complete the "National Higher Education Entrance Examination", or Gaokao, with top grades will be able to apply for direct entry onto Birmingham degree programmes without first completing a foundation year which is a routine for the freshman.Gaokao is usually taken by students in their last year of senior high school and, every year, each province in China sets the grades required to gain admission to its universities. It is usually held across China in early June. Students are tested in Chinese, Mathematics, a Foreign Language and social sciences or natural sciences.University of Birmingham Vice-Chancellor Professor Sir David Eastwood said: "The University of Birmingham has been challenging and developing great minds for more than a century. We welcome people from around the globe to study at Birmingham and Chinese students form an integral part of our education and research community. We are further opening access to Birmingham's wealth of education opportunities for the brightest and most dedicated Chinese students by accepting this strict and important qualification. I look forward to welcoming these high-flying students to the University of Birmingham. "Gaokao is increasingly accepted by universities in Australia, the USA, Canada and mainland Europe. Birmingham will only be considering high quality students who achieve a minimum 80% Gaokao score and meet additional academic and English language requirements.Professor J on Frampton, Director of the University of Birmingham's China Institute said:"The University of Birmingham has a long history of educating students from China and one of our most famous graduates is Li Siguang-the founding father of Chinese geology. I am delighted that the University is now accepting the Gaokao. This gives the brightest and best Chinese students an opportunity to move straight into the first year of our undergraduate programmes and experience the benefits of studying at a global Top 100 university, such as Birmingham. "32. What do Chinese students have to do to enter the University of Birmingham before 2019?A. Go through a foundation year.B. Prepare Birmingham degree programmes.C. Acquire the right to permanent residency.D. Score over 800% of the university's qualification examination.33. Who is the announcement intended for?A. The foreign students in China.B. All people living in the UK.C. The students of the UK.D. Chinese students.34. Which of the following best explains "integral" underlined in paragraph 3?A. complete.B. necessary.C. indifferent.D. unimportant.35. What does the text mainly talk about?A. The introduction to the "Gaokao" of China.B. The history of the University of Birmingham.C. The high quality students accepted by top universities.D. The University of Birmingham's admission to Gaokao.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Michael Sessions, 18, beat former mayor Douglas Ingles, 51, by just two votes and became the new mayor of Hillsdale. He is America's youngest mayor.As Sessions was too young to enter the election in the spring of 2005, he registered to vote on Sept. 22, one day after his 18-year-old birthday. The day after that he started his write-in campaign, which means he should persuade voters to remember his name and write it by hand on the voting ballots（选票）.To help get his name known, Sessions earned＄700 by selling apples over the summer. He spent the money on posters and put them on the Hillsdale's lawns.Sessions' month-long campaign included going door to door, explaining his ideas of the town's future in the kitchens of his neighbors. "They'd look at me, and say‘How old are you again? How much experience do you have?' And I say ‘I'm still in high school', " he said. Sessions promised Hillsdale's voters he would renew local economy. “I was hopeful the whole time, ” he explained. One day he spent so long out on the streets knocking on the doors that he ended up in a hospital emergency room.Sessions said that his schoolwork will not get in the way of his job as a mayor. “From 7:50 a.m. to 2:30p.m., I'11 be a student. From 3 to 6, I'11 be the mayor of Hillsdale," he said.“He did a very brave thing that couldn't have been easy for him to do, "said Jack Vettel, a councilman in Hillsdale, a city of 8,200 about 75 miles southwest of Detroit.

His clothes were torn, his hands bleeding. Before we reached him, we saw him fall. He lay a moment. Then he pulled himself to his feet, walked unsteadily a few yards through the woods and fell again.After we got him out, we went back to find the gun that he had thrown down. His tracks showed that for two days he had circled in the forest, within 200 yards of the road. His senses were so dulled by fear and tiredness that he did not hear the cars going by or seethe lights at night.We found him just in time.This man, like others before him, had simply been frightened when he knew he was lost. What had been a near disaster might have turned out as only a pleasant walk, had he made a few preparations before he stepped from the highway or off a known path.Whatever sense of direction that a man may have, it’s still largely a question of observation. A skilled woodsman always keeps an eye on his surroundings. He notes that the shape of a mountain, the direction water flows through a swamp, and the way a tree leans across a path. With these in mind, he may be turned around many times, but he is seldom lost.There are exceptions, of course, and once in a while a man does come across some strange problem that puts him into the “lost” situation. A rainstorm or sudden blizzard may catch him without a compass (指南针) in his pocket. Darkness may find him in a rough area, where travel is dangerous without a light.When this happens, the normal first reaction (反应) is the fear of being laughed at as a result of his poor knowledge in the woods. He may also be concerned about the inconvenience that he will cause his friends when he doesn’t show up. This false prid e may lead him to keep on the move in a false effort to find his way against all difficulties.The person who thinks ahead is seldom in great danger. He’ll be safe if he observes carefully, thinks ahead, and remains calm.8. The author suggested that if the man had not been found, he would have ________.A. been shot by a gunB. become confusedC. been attacked by wild animalsD. been in great danger9. According to the passage, if a person gets lost in the forest, at the very beginning, he would _______.A. worry about being laughed atB. push himself to find his way outC. feel it is convenient to ask for help from his friendsD. be concerned about being frightened by wild animals10. When a person tries to find his way in the woods, _________ is the most important.A. intelligenceB. observationC. directionD. chance11. The author tells the story of the lost man as an example of people who _________.A. go into the woods by themselvesB. don’t know how to signal for help properlyC. are frightened when they think they are lostD. notice everything when stepping from the highwayDAt one time, computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documents(文件) because they could be stored electronically. But for all the texts that are written, stored and sent electronically, a lot of them are still ending up on paper. It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of use of Internet-connected computers, although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that when e-mail is introduced, the printers start working overtime. “I feel in my bones this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down ,” says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organization.Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for paper comes from the high-tech industry itself, which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets. Several Internet companies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a computer. Earlier this week Hewlett-Packard Co. announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document, a medical record or just a one-line e-mail, even if they are nowhere near a computer. As the company sees it , the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers .Does all this mean environmental concerns (环境问题) have been forgotten? Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a lot of dangers to the environment have gone away.“I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of, because of recycling（回收利用）,” said Kelly Quirke, director of the Rainforest Action Network in San Francisco. Yet Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful. He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity.The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials other than wood, such as agricultural waste.12. The growing demand for paper in recent years is largely due to .A．the rapid development of small businessesB．the opening up of new marketsC．the printing of high quality copiesD．the increased use of the Internet13. Environmentalists believe one possible way of dealing with the paper situation is .A．to encourage printing more quality documentsB．to develop new printers using recycled paperC．to find new materials for making paperD．to plant more fast-growing trees14. Hewlett-Packard Co. has decided to develop new technologies because .A．people are concerned about the environmentB．printers in many offices are working overtimeC．small companies need more hard copiesD．they see a growing market for printers15. What would be the best title for the text ?A．Computers and Printers B．E-mail and the Business WorldC. Internet Revolution and EnvironmentD.

few months ago the potato was considered an enemy in the obesity battle but a new study shows the food isn't that bad after all．In June，researchers from Harvard University found that eating some of the potato[]every day，whether mashed（被磨碎），deep fried or baked，caused more weight gain than an extra can of drink or red or some kind of meat．The conclusion was that it happened because potatoes were always cooked﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣making it easier for the body to change the starch（淀粉）which would increase the blood sugar levels．The body then had to work extra hard to get levels down but falling blood sugar made people hungry，which led to eating more food．But a University of Otago study showed today brought some good news for spud lovers．It found it was hard to tell the glycemic index（GI）（血糖指数）level of mixed meals for persons．"In general，different foods are tested for GI and it is less usual to test the GI for a whole meal，"one of the study's authors，Hayley Dodd，said．"However，in this study，the GIs of three meals were tested．The meals all contained chicken，peas，carrots and mutton together with a lot of food includingpotato，white rice or spaghetti．"It found the GI for each meal lower than thought；researchers had expected the potato meal would have a GI of 65，but it came in at 53，which was low．"Although potato is high﹣GI food into their meals﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣our work suggests that having a small amount of potato with a meal isn't going to drive your blood sugar high．The study involved 30healthy people aged 18﹣50．The research has been published in the October issue of the American．8．The underlined word"spud"in the third paragraph may mean．A．chickenB．peaC．carrotD．potato9．The potato will make people fat easily when．A．it is eaten rawB．it is cookedC．it has blood sugarD．it is eaten[]with drinks10．If a person has a low blood sugar，he will．A．feel angry quicklyB．become hungry easilyC．get thin soonD．eat food slowly11．From the study of the University of Otago we can know．A．people will get fatter and fatter if they eat potatoesB．potatoes won't make people fat if eaten with othersC．he glycemic index in the potatoes is very lowD．potatoes are the main enemy in the obesity battle．12．The iPhone，the iPad and the iPod．Each of Apple's products sounds cool and has become a fashion．Apple has cleverly taken advantage of the power of theletter"i"and many other brands are following suit．The BBC's iPlayer，which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet，adopted the title in 2008．A lovely bear （popular in the US and UK ）that plays music and video is called"iTeddy"．A slimmed﹣down version of London's Independent newspaper came out last week under the name"i"．In general，single﹣letter prefixes have been popular since the 1990s，when terms such as e﹣mail and e﹣commerce first came into use．Most"i"products are aimed at young people and considering the major readers of Independent's"i"，it is no surprise that they've chosen this fashionable name．But it's hard to see what's so special about the letter"i"．Why not use"a"，"b"or"c"instead？According to Tony Thorne，head of the Language Center at King's College，London，"i"works because its meaning has become ambiguous．When Apple uses"i"，no one knows whether it means Internet，information，individual or interactive，Mr．Thorne told BBC Magazines，"Even when Apple created the iPad，it seems it didn't have one clear definition．""However，thanks to Apple，the term is now associated with portability （轻便），"adds Thorne．Clearly the letter"i"also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual．Each person believes they have their own needs，and they love personalized products for this reason．Along with"Google"and"Twitter"，readers of BBC Magazines voted"i"as one of the top 20words that have come to define the last decade．But as history shows，fashions come and go．From the 1900s to 1990s，products with"2000"in their names became fashionable as the year was associated with all things advanced and modern．However，as we entered the new century，the trend inevitably disappeared．12．People use the iPlayer to．A．listen to musicB．make a callC．read newspapersD．watch TV programs online13．From the passage，we know that the Independent's"i"is aimed at．A．old readersB．young readersC．fashionable womenD．engineers14．Nowadays，the"i"term often reminds people of the products which are．A．portableB．advancedC．recyclableD．environmentally friendly15．The author of the passage would probably agree that．A．"i"products are often of high qualityB．all"i"products have something to do with InternetC．the popularity of"i"products may not last longD．the iTeddy is a live bear．根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．16．Weekend at last!Something you're looking forward to after a tiring week

found that eating some of the potato[]every day，whether mashed（被磨碎），deep fried or baked，caused more weight gain than an extra can of drink or red or some kind of meat．The conclusion was that it happened because potatoes were always cooked﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣making it easier for the body to change the starch（淀粉）which would increase the blood sugar levels．The body then had to work extra hard to get levels down but falling blood sugar made people hungry，which led to eating more food．But a University of Otago study showed today brought some good news for spudlovers．It found it was hard to tell the glycemic index（GI）（血糖指数）level of mixed meals for persons．"In general，different foods are tested for GI and it is less usual to test the GI for a whole meal，"one of the study's authors，Hayley Dodd，said．"However，in this study，the GIs of three meals were tested．The meals all contained chicken，peas，carrots and mutton together with a lot of food including potato，white rice or spaghetti．"It found the GI for each meal lower than thought；researchers had expected the potato meal would have a GI of 65，but it came in at 53，which was low．"Although potato is high﹣GI food into their meals﹣﹣﹣﹣﹣our work suggests that having a small amount of potato with a meal isn't going to drive your blood sugar high．The study involved 30healthy people aged 18﹣50．The research has been published

the iPod．Each of Apple's products sounds cool and has become a fashion．Apple has cleverly taken advantage of the power of the letter"i"and many other brands are following suit．The BBC's iPlayer，which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet，adopted the title in 2008．A lovely bear （popular in the US and UK ）that plays music and video is called"iTeddy"．A slimmed﹣down version of London's Independent newspaper came out last week under the name"i"．In general，single﹣letter prefixes have been popular since the 1990s，when terms such as e﹣mail and e﹣commerce first came into use．Most"i"products are aimed at young people and considering the major readers of Independent's"i"，it is no surprise that they've chosen this fashionable name．But it's hard to see what's so special about the letter"i"．Why not use"a"，"b"or"c"instead？According to Tony Thorne，head of the Language Center at King's College，London，"i"works because its meaning has become ambiguous．When Apple uses"i"，no one knows whether it means Internet，information，individual or interactive，Mr．Thorne told BBC Magazines，"Even when Apple created the iPad，it seems it didn't have one clear definition．""However，thanks to Apple，the term is now associated with portability （轻便），"adds Thorne．Clearly the letter"i"also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual．Each person believes they have their own needs，and they love personalized products for this reason．Along with"Google"and"Twitter"，readers of BBC Magazines voted"i"as one of the top 20words that have come to define the last decade．。
