They go to college or find full-time jobs, and they often rent their own apartments. Some get married and start families. This independence (独立性) is learned from childhood. From an early age, American children learn responsibility. Children as young as 2 begin to put away their toys and dress themselves. At 3, many children do simple chores（家务）like setting the table.Using money wisely is also taught early. As soon as a child understands the value of money, he or she receives a weekly allowance(零花钱). This is used for things the child wants, like toys or treats. The child can spend or save it, usually with little guidance(指导) from parents. If the child wants money besides his or her allowance, it must be made by doing extra chores.Children are taught early in life to think for themselves. They are allowed to make some decisions and make mistakes. Failure often teaches more than success.4．Many American young people begin to live on themselves ________.A．at eighteen years oldB．from childhoodC．after they get marriedD．from an early age5．An American child learns to ________ at the age of 2.A．find a full-time jobB．make decisionsC．put away his or her toysD．do lots of chores6．A child can get some more money by ________.A．understanding the value of moneyB．helping the richC．reading many booksD．doing extra chores7．The passage is mainly about ________.A．the independence of American childrenB．the value of moneyC．the guidance from parentsD．failure and success of American childrenCCan you imagine what 680,000 tons of food look like? That's the amount of food wasted in Britain each year, and at the top of the list of wasted food is bread. In the British diet, bread appears in every meal. It is eaten for breakfast, used for sandwiches for lunch and put in soups at dinner. Almost everyone in Britain buys bread.Bread is so important to the British that they use the word “bread” to mean “money” and the word “loaf”(一条面包) to mean “head”. So let's use our “loaves” tounderstand why so much “bread” is wasted!Even though bread is still sold in such a popular way and in such a large amount, that doesn't mean it's made full use of. It seems people are simply buying much more than they need, so they throw away the bread that they don't need.Baker Chris Young explains that the British aren't valuing their bread because bread is no longer respected. “None of the bread that is thrown away is ‘real’bread—homemade or carefully­made bread, but is bought from the bread shop.”Another baker Mark Boyle agrees. “If you make something by yourself, you don't want to waste it because you know how much energy you've put into it. But although home baking is a nice idea, for many it's out of their ability because they have to work such long hours every day that they don't have time to make bread by themselves at home. So they simply buy bread and just bring it home to eat.”Perhaps the British should try to bake bread by themselves, which can probably make their dustbins (垃圾箱) lighter.8．What can we infer from the passage?A．Bread plays an important part in British diet.B．Different British people like different foods.C．Bread will become less popular in Britain.D．Bread is the favorite food for the British.8．If a British boss says to his workers “Please bring your loaves here，” he ________.A．wants his workers to eat healthilyB．advises his workers to buy more breadC．asks his workers to work more cleverlyD．promises to give his workers more money10．Mark Boyle believes that the British throw away much bread mainly because________.A．they are tired of eating breadB．they are too rich to value breadC．they don't like the taste of breadD. they don't put any energy into making bread11．Many British people fail to make bread by themselves at home because________.A．they are very busyB．they don't earn much moneyC．they become lazier than beforeD．they don't know how to bake breadDWhen we talk about intelligence we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests oreven the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or upsetting situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do.For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can do, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn’t sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And if he can’t make things work out right, he doesn’t feel ashamed that he failed; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life, a special feeling about life, and a special way of how he fits into it.If you look at children, you’ll see great differences betwee n what we call brightchildren and non brightchildren. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence.For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life --- he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream-world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.12. In a new situation, an intelligent person ___________.A. knows more about what might happen to himB. is sure of the result he will getC. is ready to face and fit himself in the situationD. cares more about himself13. If an intelligent person failed, he would _________.A. try not feel ashamedB. learn from his experiencesC. try to find all he could doD. make sure what result he would get14. The difference between bright children and non bright children lies in _______________.A. their attitude towards lifeB. the degree of clevernessC. the amount of knowledge about the worldD. their way of thinking15. The author of this passage will probably continue to talk about _________.A. how to determine what intelligence isB. how an unintelligent person should be taughtC. how to solve intelligent problemsD. how to educate children to deal with different situations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，选项中有两项为多余选项。

一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Scientists at the University of Oxford have developed new artificial intelligence(AI) software to recognize and follow up the faces of chimpanzees(黑猩猩)in the wild. The new software will allow researchers and wildlife conservationists to significantly cut back on time spent analyzing videos, according to the new paper published in Science Advances.For species(物种)like chimpanzees which have complex social lives and live for many years, getting photos of their behavior taken from short-term field research can only tell us so much," says Dan Schofield, researcher and DPhil student at Oxford University's Private Models Lab, School of Anthropology. "By taking advantage of the power of machine learning to unlock large video files, it makes it possible to measure behavior over the long term."The computer model was trained using over 10 million images(影像):from Kyoto University s Primate Research Institute(PRI) video files of wild chimpanzees in Guinea, West Africa. The new software is the first to continuously track and recognize individual a wide range of poses, performing with high accuracy in difficult conditions such as low lighting and poor image quality. "Access to this large video file has allowed us to use deep neural networks to train models to a degree that was previously not possible," says Arsha Nagrad, co-auther of the study and DPhil student at the Department of Engineer Science, University of Oxford." Additionally, our new software differs from previous primate face recognition software in that it can be applied to videos with limited manual intervention(人工干预), saving hours of time."The technology can be potentially used to monitor species for conservation Although the present application focuses on chimpanzees, the AI software provided will be applied to other species, and help drive the adoption of AI systems to solve(解决)a range of problems in the wildlife sciences.（1）What is the purpose of developing the new soft?A.To save wildlife researchers' time spent in the labs.B.To keep track of wildlife conservationists' behaviors.C.To protect chimpanzees and help them to live longer.D.To recognize and track the faces of wild chimpanzees.（2）What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 2 refer to?A.Getting photos.B.Analyzing videos.C.A powerful machineD.The new AI software.（3）What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A.The working principle of the new software.B.Some limitations of using the new software.C.The unique advantages of the new software.D.Controversial attitudes to the new software.（4）What can be known from the last paragraph?A.Technology advance is the final goal of scienceB.The new software won't just be applied to chimpanzees.C.AI systems are widely used in the wildlife sciences.D.The application of the new technology isn't easy.【答案】（1）D（2）D（3）C（4）B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一种新的人工智能软件，这种软件可以识别和追踪黑猩猩的面孔,大大节省了研究者和野生动物保护者的时间，而且它还可以应用到其他的物种研究。

AThe first modern Olympic Games were held in Athens in 1896.There were nine sports： cycling，tennis，gymnastics，swimming，track and field，weightlifting，rowing，wrestling and shooting.Sailing was also to have taken place，but had to be cancelled because of bad weather atsea.In the first Olympics there were no real team sports.Then，slowly，a few team sports joined the program.Football and hockey were the first team sports introduced into the Olympics in London in 1908.Then in 1936，at the Berlin Olympics，the Germans brought in handball and theAmericans had basketball accepted as an Olympic sport.It often happens that the country that introduces a new sport into theOlympics then goes onto win the gold medals.In 1904，at the Olympics in St.Louis，the Americans introduced boxing and won all seven events.Five horse riding events were introduced into the 1912 Stockholm(斯德哥尔摩) Olympics，and Swedish riders won four of them.And in 1964，at the Tokyo Olympics，two sports which are very popular in Japan were introduced：judo and volleyball.The Japanese won all three gold medals in the judo，and also won the first women’s volleyball competition.Some new sports have recently been added to the Olympics.In Los Angeles，in 1984，baseball was introduced and became an Olympics sport.InSeoul(汉城)，Korea in 1988，table tennis was introduced for the first time，and tennis returned as an Olympics sport.Unlike tennis，some sports，such as golf and rugby(橄榄球)，have been tried in the Olympics but have never returned.1．Football was first introduced into theOlympics in . A． 1988，in SeoulB．1936，in BerlinC．1904，in St.Louis D．1908，in London2．Judo and volleyball are the two sports which are verypopular in . A．Britain B．America C． JapanD．Korea3．Which of the following sports is NOT a team sport? A．Basketball. B． Judo. C．Football. D．Baseball.4. The text is mainly about. A．the Olympic sportsB．the ancient Olympic GamesC．the ancient and modern Olympic GamesD．how many events are in the Olympic GamesBA computer virus is a computer program that is written by a malicious (怀有恶意的) author. They spread by copying themselves, then transferring onto other computers. There are around53,000 computer viruses in existence, with a new one detected every 18 seconds.A computer virus can do everything, from popping up a short message to wiping key files, so that your computerdoesn’t work. The “I LOVE YOU” virus infected up to 45 million computers, causing ￡7 billionworth of damage worldwide.How to avoid catching a virus?Stay calm. A computer virus isn’t dangerous until the infected e-mailis opened. Deleted items folder. Don’t open any attachment (附件) you are not sure about, even if you have a virus scanner . Read the e-mail and check that the contents of the message make sense before you openany attachment. Don’t forward any attachment to a friend without being sure it is safe.Look out for hoaxes. There are many e-mails warnin g of “the most destructive virus ever”, but often these viruses don’t exist. Don’t sendan e-mail about a “new vir us” without checking it out. Visit sites like to check for hoaxes.Send any e-mail that you think is infected to an anti-virus company. They can tell you whether it is a virus to anyone except the official virus companies. Mail filtering system will probably delete it anyway.If you get a computer virus you’ll need to use a virus scanner to get rid of it. Don’t be careless just because you have a virus scanner. You will still need to keep your eyes open in case a new virus appears.5. The computer virus can do everything except .A. attack the computer users directlyB. pop up a short messageC. wipe key filesD. copy out itself.6. The best way to check whether it is a virus or not is to .A. check it by yourselfB. send the e-mail to an anti-virus companyC. use the virus scannerD. ask your friend for help7. This passage mainly tellsus .A. what is a computer virusB. what is the damage of a computer virusC. how to delete a computer virusD. how to avoid getting a computer virusCA Wolf in DangerWhat is happening to the timber wolf today?Native Americans and early settlers often went to sleep to the sound of a lonely lullaby(催眠曲). It was the song of the wolf howling in a distant forest. There were many wolves then. Onekind was the North American timberwolf.Wolves are important to the balance of nature because they eat sick and weak animals. In Colorado, people tried to help deer by shooting wolves. But then there were so many deer that many of them starved to death.The timber wolf is on the endangered special list. Animals on this list are in danger of disappearing from the earth. People drove the wolves away by cutting down the forests to build houses, towns, and highways. Timber wolves are now found only in Canada, Alaska, Michigan, and Minnesota.This special animal may soon disappear from our forests forever. Then, its lonely howl will never be heard again.8. Wolves help the balance of nature because they .A. are an endangered speciesB. no longer live in forestsC. eat sick and weak animalsD. help the farmers9. At one time, the timber wolf was found _.A. in many parts of AfricaB. only in Colorado and CanadaC. in towns and cities in AlaskaD. in many parts of North America10. Which of the following happenedfirst? A. People cut down theforests.B. The timber wolf was driven away fromits home. C. People built towns andhighways.D. Timber wolves are endangered species.11. When people in Colorado shot the wolves, they made a mistake because _.A. wolves never attacked other animalsB. the wolves kept down the number of deerC. the wolves were starving and would have died anywayD. they kept the balance of natureDJust like rice and Noodles are different from bread, snacks in China are a world apart from those in the UK and the US. For one thing, I never imaginedthat sunflower seeds(葵花籽) would be so popular here. I found people havingthem while waiting for tables outside restaurants, beforedinner and, of course, while watching TV. I also saw that a plate of sunflower seeds is always on tables during the Spring Festival holidays.I had seldom tried sunflower seeds when I came to China. In the UK, young people love their snacks. In fact, young people in Britain eat more snacks than people of the same age in other European countries. A recent Survey has discovered that 64% of under 20-year-olds snackbetween meals, according to an article on a British website. In comparison(对比), 58.7% of youngpeople snack in Germany, 53% in France, and only 40.7% in Spain.In Britain, we always looked forward to our favorite potato chips and chocolate bars after school. In U.S. One of things that I found the mostwonderful when I first visited the US was the number of snacks in their supermarkets; I was surprised to find huge shelves just for snacks were bigger than some stores in the UK. Snack tastes in the US are much the same as inthe UK.All in all, it’s probably best for your health if you like sunflower seeds rather than potatochips and chocolate. But eating these delicious snacks sometimes couldn’t be wrong, could it?12. What is the article mainlyabout? A. The most popularsnack in China. B. Snacks youngWestern people like. C. Snacksin the UK and the US.D. Some tips for choosing snacks in the UK.13. According to the British Council, snacks are most popular amongyoung people in _.A. GermanyB. BritainC. FranceD. Spain14. What surprised the author when he went to supermarketsin the US? A. The large number of snacks.B. The size of the snacks’ packages.C. The lack of choice when it came tosnacks. D. How the snacks tasted.15. What does the author think of potato chips andchocolate? A. They don’t taste as good assunflower seeds.B. They are unhealthy, so people should stop eating them.C. I t’s fine to enjoy them sometimes although they are unhealthy.D. I t’s better eat them with sandwiches and fruit.第二节（共5 小题，每题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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

贵州省湄潭县湄江高级中学2018-2019学年高二英语上学期第一次周考试题（无答案）第一卷：选择题阅读理解（每小题2分）：ARight! Next, I’ll tell you something about my childhood. Although we have always lived in the same city, my family and I moved a lot since I was old enough to remember. We don’t have our own house. We have always rented them. For eight years, we lived downtown in a large 10-story building with no less than 30 apartments in it. The conditions were very good. But on the other hand, we had a lot of problems. Imagine how difficult and colorless life was for a nine-year-old boy, full of life, having no place to play freely. No sun, no open air, no football games. School’s from 7:30 to noon and the afternoon’s spent in a room studying, reading, or playing indoor games with a friend or two. No outdoor activities because the streets were too dangerous, and the parents are much too afraid to let a young boy go out. How I wished for the weekends to come. I could then burst out with joy and happiness when we went out for a visit to some friends or relatives, a picnic, or even a car ride. I think that’s one of the reasons why I became such a strong nature lover.1. How long did the speaker and his family live in the downtown apartment?A. 8 years.B. 10 years.C. 30 years.D.9.years2.

They say that there are several kinds of food that people should eat every day, they are: (1) green and yellow vegetables of all kinds; (2) citrus (柑桔) fruits and tomatoes; (3) potatoes and other fruits and vegetables; 4) meat of all kinds, fish and eggs; (5) milk and foods made from milk; (6) bread or cereal (谷类), rice is also in this kind of food;(7) butter, or something like butter.People in different countries and different places of the world eat different kinds of things. Foods are cooked and eaten in many different kinds of ways. People in different countries eat at different times of the day. In some places people eat once or twice a day; in other countries people eat three or four times a day. Scientists say that none of the differences is really important. It doesn’t matter whether foods are eaten raw or cooked, canned (罐装的) or frozen . It doesn’t matter if a person eats dinner at 4 o’clock in the afternoon or at eleven o’clock at night. The important thing is what you eat every day.There are two problems, then, in feeding the large number of people on the earth. The first is to find some way t o feed the world’s population so that no one is hungry. The second is to make sure that people everywhere have the right kinds of food to make them grow to be strong and healthy.6. According to the scientists，which of the following groups of food is the healthiest for your lunch？A. Chicken, apples, cereal and cabbages.B. Potatoes, carrots, rice and bread.C.

Which of the following is not true？A. People in some places don’t have enough to eat.B. There are too many people in the world.C. The scientists are trying to make people grow to be strong and healthyD. . One of the problems is that no one is hungry.10. If there is Paragraph 4, what do you think is going to be talked about？A. What to do with the two pro blems.B. When people eat their lunch.C. How to cook food in different ways.D. Why people eat different kinds of food.CGood health is the most valuable thing a person can have, but one cannot take good health for granted. It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape: eat right food, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.Proper nutrition (营养) is important for good health. Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of “fuel”(燃料). Don’t eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of foods high in protein (蛋白质), like meat, fish, eggs and nuts. Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins (维他命) and minerals. However, don’t overeat. It is not helpful to be overweight.Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you don’t get enough sleep, you feel tired and easily get angry. You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality (人的个性). Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise firms the body, strengthens the muscles, and prevents you from gaining weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your life-span (寿命). Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shape: basketball, swimming, bicycling, running and so on are good examples. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too.If everybody were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.11. According to the passage, _________.A. we should always keep fitB. if we were healthy, we could spend our days in doing things with less sleepC. one can eat a lot to stay in good shapeD. one needn’t take any exercise if he is healthy12. In order to keep good health, _________.A. we shoul d eat a lot of sweetsB. one needs a large amount of fatC. people should eat according to the foods nutritionD. we must try to sleep now and then13. Eating more and sleeping less _________.A. can keep healthyB. is no good for youC. gets you more energyD. will keep your personality14. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Eating too much sugar and fat is not good for our health.B. We have no energy if we don’t have enough sleep.C. If we sleep five hours each night, we will feel strong.D. Exercise is good for our body.15. The title of the article should be _________.A. Eating and ExercisingB. How Vitamins Work in Man’s BodyC. Staying HealthyD.

湄潭中学高二年级英语第一次月考试题第一节阅读理解（2*20=40分）When Mary Moore began her high school in 1951, her mother told her, "Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn't work out, you'll have something to rely on." Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, "the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course," she recalls.The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom," I don't know how to use a computer," she admits.Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. "I felt there was a need for a book like this," she says. "I didn't want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we're self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease."But she hasn't always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up--again---and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. "Everybody on earth can ask, 'why me?' about something or other," she insists. "It doesn't do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I've come to realize the importance of that as I've grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be."1. Why did Mary feel regretful?A. She didn't achieve her ambition.B. She didn't take care of her mother.C. She didn't complete her high school.D. She didn't follow her mother's advice.2. We can know that before 1995 Mary .A. had two books publishedB. received many career awardsC. knew how to use a computerD. supported the JDRF by writing3. Mary's second book Growing Up Again is mainly about her ______.A. living with diabetesB. successful show businessC. service for an organizationD. remembrance of her mother4. When Mary received the life-changing news, she ______.A. lost control of herselfB. began a balanced dietC. tried to get a treatmentD. behaved in an adult way5. What can we know from the last paragraph?A. Mary feels pity for herself.B. Mary has recovered from her disease.C. Mary wants to help others as much as possible.D. Mary determines to go back to the dance floor.BValencia is in the east part of Spain. It has a port on the sea， two miles away on the coast. It is the capital of a province that is also named Valencia. The city is a market centre for what is produced by the land around the city. Most of the city‘s money is made from farming. It is also a busy business city, with ships, railways, clothes and machine factories. Valencia has an old part with white buildings, colored roofs， and narrow streets. The modern part has long， wide streets and new buildings. Valencia is well known for its parks and gardens. It has many old churches and museums. The university in the centre of the city was built in the 13th century. The city of Valencia has been known since the 2nd century. In the 8th century it was the capital of Spain. There is also an important city in Venezuela （委内瑞拉） named Valencia.6.From the text， how many places have the name Valencia？A. oneB. twoC. threeD. four7. What is the main difference between the two parts of Valencia？A. The color of the buildingB. The length of the streetsC. The age of the buildingsD. The color of the roofs8.

The main income of the city of Valencia is from its ______.A. marketsB. businessC. factoriesD. farmingCA newspaper reporter’s job can be very interesting. He meets all types of people and lives quite a busy life. He is on the rush for news all the time, then after several years he may get a desk job, and life becomes a bit more settled. Let’s look at his work a little more closely. In a day he may have to interview the prime minister of a foreign country, and the next day he may be writing about a football match. Sometimes he may be so busy that he has hardly any time to sleep. And at other times he may go on for days looking out for news materials yet return empty-handed.In the beginning, a reporter has to cover a very wide field. After the early years he becomes more specialized in his work. For example, he may finally be asked to write only on court cases or politics or sports. Some reporters may become so specialized that they are asked only to write on a special thing: horse racing, for example. In most newspaper houses there is at least one special racing correspondent. Some newspapers have book reviews. Their job is delightful. They read the latest book and then write reviews on the ones they like. Then there are those who write on films, so they get to see them even before they are shown in the cinema. How lucky, you would say!A reporter’s job can also be very dangerous. A number of them have died rushing from one assignment to another, and if there is a flood or a riot(暴乱) they may get hurt or even be killed. Three years ago there was a reporter whose camera was smashed by a group of men, because they were angry with him for taking their picture. Dangerous or not, one thing is certain, and that is, their job is never dull!10. What does the underlined phrase “on the rush” mean in the passage?A. on the beachB. in a hurryC. on the spotD. in no time11. Reporters who write on films are said to be lucky because they _____.A. can see the films before most people see them in the cinemaB. can see more film starsC. can pay less than other peopleD. can write anything they like12. A reporter’s work becomes dangerous when _____.A. there is a flood or a riotB. there is an interview with the prime ministerC. there is a football matchD. he is seeing a horror filmDMore than 6,000 children were expelled(开除) from the U. S. schools last year for bringing guns and bombs to schools, the U. S. Department of Education said on May 8.The department gave a report on the expulsions(开除) as saying handguns accounted for 85 percent of the 6,093 expulsions in 1996-97, against 7 percent for rifles(步枪) or shotguns and 25 percent for other types of firearms.“The report is a clear sign that our nation’s public schools are cracking down(严惩) on students who bring guns to school.” Education Secretary Richard Riley said in a statement. “We need to be tough-minded about keeping guns out of our schools and do everything to keep our children safe.”In March 1997, an 11-year-old and a 13-year-old boy using handguns and rifles shot dead four children and a teacher at a school in Jonesboro, Arkansas. In October, two were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school. Two months later, a 14-year-old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Daducah, Kentucky.Most of the expulsions, 56 per cent, were from high schools, which have students from about age 16. Nearly 34 per cent were from junior high schools and 9 per cent were from elementary schools, the report said.13. From the first paragraph we can infer that in the U. S. schools _____.A. students enjoy shootingB. students are eager to be soldiersC. safety is a problemD. students can make guns14. The report from the U. S. Department of Education shows that _____.A. the number of the expulsions is not largeB. the number of the expulsions is wrongC. there are soldiers hiding among the studentsD. guns are out of control in the U. S. schools.15. The main idea of Paragraph 4 shows us _____.A. some examples of shooting in the U. S. schoolsB. the American’s feelingC. some terrible accidentsD. that some teachers were killed by students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。

It was the song of the wolf howling in a distant forest. There were many wolves then. Onekind was the North American timberwolf.Wolves are important to the balance of nature because they eat sick and weak animals. In Colorado, people tried to help deer by shooting wolves. But then there were so many deer that many of them starved to death.The timber wolf is on the endangered special list. Animals on this list are in danger of disappearing from the earth. People drove the wolves away by cutting down the forests to build houses, towns, and highways. Timber wolves are now found only in Canada, Alaska, Michigan, and Minnesota.This special animal may soon disappear from our forests forever. Then, its lonely howl will never be heard again.8. Wolves help the balance of nature because they .A. are an endangered speciesB. no longer live in forestsC. eat sick and weak animalsD. help the farmers9. At one time, the timber wolf was found _.A. in many parts of AfricaB. only in Colorado and CanadaC. in towns and cities in AlaskaD. in many parts of North America10.

For one thing, I never imaginedthat sunflower seeds(葵花籽) would be so popular here. I found people havingthem while waiting for tables outside restaurants, beforedinner and, of course, while watching TV. I also saw that a plate of sunflower seeds is always on tables during the Spring Festival holidays.I had seldom tried sunflower seeds when I came to China. In the UK, young people love their snacks. In fact, young people in Britain eat more snacks than people of the same age in other European countries. A recent Survey has discovered that 64% of under 20-year-olds snackbetween meals, according to an article on a British website. In comparison(对比), 58.7% of youngpeople snack in Germany, 53% in France, and only 40.7% in Spain.In Britain, we always looked forward to our favorite potato chips and chocolate bars after school. In U.S. One of things that I found the mostwonderful when I first visited the US was the number of snacks in their supermarkets; I was surprised to find huge shelves just for snacks were bigger than some stores in the UK. Snack tastes in the US are much the same as inthe UK.All in all, it’s probably best for your health if you like sunflower seeds rather than potatochips and chocolate. But eating these delicious snacks sometimes couldn’t be wrong, could it?12. What is the article mainlyabout? A. The most popularsnack in China. B. Snacks youngWestern people like. C. Snacksin the UK and the US.D. Some tips for choosing snacks in the UK.13. According to the British Council, snacks are most popular amongyoung people in _.A. GermanyB. BritainC. FranceD. Spain14.

AHealthy Habits，Healthy BodyFeeling tired lately？Has a doctor said he can’t find anything wrong with you？Perhaps he sent you to a hospital，but all the advanced equipment there shows that there is nothing wrong with you.Then，consider this：you might be in a state of subhealth (亚健康)．Subhealth，also called the third state or gray state，is explained as a borderline state between health and disease.According to the investigation (调查研究) by the National Health Organization，over 45 percent of subhealthy people are middle-aged or elderly.The percentage is even higher among people who work in management positions as well as students around exam time.Symptoms (征兆) include a lack of energy，depression (压抑)，slow reactions，insomnia (失眠)，agitation (焦虑)，and poor memory.Other symptoms include shortness of breath，sweating and aching in the waist and legs.The key to preventing and recovering from subhealth，according to some medical experts，is to form good living habits，alternate work and rest，exercise regularly，and take part in open-air activities.As for meals，people are advised to eat less salt and sugar.They should eat more fresh vegetables，fruit and fish because they are rich in nutritional (营养的) elements—vitamins and trace elements (微量元素)—that are important to the body.Nutrition experts point out that it is not good to eat too much at one meal because it may cause unhealthy changes in the digestive tract (消化道)．They also say that a balanced diet is very helpful in avoiding subhealth.1．According to this passage，which of the following is right?A．When you are in a state of subhealth，you should stay home and keep silent.B．When you are in a state of subhealth，you should find out the reasons and relax yourself. C．When you are in a state of subhealth，you should go to see a doctor and buy some medicine. D．When you are in a state of subhealth，you should have yourself examined in foreign countries. 2．Middle-aged people may be easy to feel subhealthy because________.A．they have more pressure in life and workB．they have lost their living hopesC．they have used to their energyD．they begin to get older3．As for food，experts suggested that________.A．we should never eat meatB．we should eat less than usualC．we should have meals with less salt and sugarD．we should have meals without salt or sugar4．The underlined word “alternate” in the sixth paragraph is closest in meaning to “________”．A. take up B．cause to take place C．keep up D．arrange by turnsBSay sorry to your wife—it may help her live longer, according to scientists.“Sorry” may be the hardest word, but scientists say it could be one of the healthiest. Researchers have discovered that women who receive an apology for hurtful behavior suffer less stress and possible damage to their heart than those who don't.It is said that the heartbeat of a wronged woman returns to normal 20 percent quicker after a well-timed “sorry” than without it. But for men, their heartbeat takes longer to recover, according to the research.The research was undertaken by American scientists using 29 men and 59 women whose diastolic blood pressure was measured throughout an experiment. Diastolic blood pressure is a measure of pressure in the blood vessels(血管) between heartbeats—if it is continuously high it can increase the chances of heart attacks.The men and women were asked to undertake a difficult mathematical task. They were told they had five minutes to complete it but were disturbed after a minute and told rudely to carry out the task more quickly. They were disturbed twice more before five minutes had passed and told to speed up. Finally they were told, “You're obviously not good enough.” Two minutes later researchers said sorry to half of the men and women.The researchers found that, on average, the women's diastolic blood pressure dropped back to normal 20 percent—quicker if they received an apology from the researchers, while the men's took 20 percent longer to return to normal. One of the researchers said, “Results indicates that the effects of apology and forgiveness on women are greater.”5. The term “sorry” is considered as one of the healthiest words because it .A. can reduce pressure and damage to the heartB. can cure heart diseaseC. helps people forget hurtful behaviorD. is the most powerful6. We can know from Paragraph 3 .A. women's hearts beat faster than men'sB. men stay angry for a longer time than women after receiving an apologyC. men can forgive others' mistakes more easily than womenD. women are quicker at making apologies7. The research confirmed(证实) that .A. men are unwilling to apologize to others for their mistakesB. men's chances of getting heart attacks are higher than women'sC. people can also get healthy benefits from giving apologiesD. women can benefit more from receiving apologies than menCHe is regarded as having one of the brightest minds on the planet. But outstanding astrophysicist(天体物理学家) Stephen Hawking has admitted that he did not learn to read until he was eight years old.In a public lecture at the Royal Albert Hall，Professor Hawking also admitted that he was not active in studying while at Oxford University，where he studied physics，and that only the diagnosis that he might die young from motor neurone(神经元) disease made him concentrate on his work.Professor Hawking said: “My sister Philippa could read by the age of 4 but then she was definitely brighter than me.”He said that he was unexceptional at school and was never further than halfway up his class.“My classwork was very untidy，and my handwriting was the despair of my teachers，”he said.“But my classmates gave me the nickna me Einstein，so presumably they saw signs of something better.”But he said that it was when doctors told him that he probably only had a few years to live at the age of 21 that galvanized him into focusing on his work and a period of productivity that resulted in some of his early breakthroughs. He said，“When you are faced with the possibility of an early death，it makes you realize that life is worth living and there are lots of things you want to do.”8．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．Stephen Hawking's handwriting was once terribly bad.B．Stephen Hawking couldn't read at the age of 7.C．Stephen Hawking is the second Einstein in the world.D．Stephen Hawking's sister once performed much better than him.9.What made Stephen Hawking devote himself to his work?A．Patience. B．Disease. C．Knowledge. D．Laziness.10．What can we learn from the last paragraph?A．Stephen Hawking didn't realize his dreams in physics.B．His life might be taken away by long hard work.C．The purpose of the doctor's diagnosis was to encourage him to work hard.D．It was possible for Hawking to face the early death.11．From whom did Hawking get a relatively just estimation(估计、评价) when he was at school? A．His classmates. B．His sister. C．His teachers. D．His parents.DWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today's leading killers, such as heart diseases, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memory.In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells(细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs(器官). The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on---in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic conditional human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way tothis wonderful future.12. According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by _______.A. heart diseases and warB. accidents and warC. accidents and agingD. diseases and aging13. In the author's opinion, today's most important advance in technology lies in _____.A. brain cellsB. the internetC. medicineD. human organs14. Humans may live longer in the future because ______.A. heart disease will be far away from usB. human organs can be repaired by new medicineC. the basic materials of cells will last foreverD. human brains can decide the final death15. We can learn from the passage that _____.A. much needs to be done before humans can have a longer lifeB. human have to take medicine to build new skin cells nowC. human life will not last more than 120 years in the futureD. we have already solved the technical problems in building new cells.第二节（共5小题，每题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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
