It's 26 heavily. A 9-year-old boy was in the car with his mother, who was 27 him to school. Suddenly, the car went off the road, 28 several times, and came to rest upside down in a ditch(沟渠) filled with water.Luckily, both the mother and son were 29 seatbelts. The mother suffered a blow to her head and was unable to move. The boy was frightened but 30 . As water came through broken windows in the car, he 31 unbuckled (解开) himself, climbed out of the 32 window, made his way around to the driver's side, and reached inside the 33 to free his trapped mother. With great effort, he managed to 34 her, pull her through the window and up to the road, where they were soon 35 .His mother later recalled her experience of the 36 .

She recalled 39 her boy saying out loud as he pulled her through the water, “I think I can, I think I can!”It seemed 40 that this little boy's act of courage was from one of his favourite books: The Little Engine that Could. In that 41 , when everyone else had 42 hope, the Little Engine carried the heavy load of toys and good things to eat over the hill to the children waiting on the other side.

Psychologists say that if children go through a disturbing event before the age of ten, they are three times as likely to suffer psychological problems as so teenagers. After a disaster children may become easily upset, shy, aggressive, or afraid of wind, rain, noises, or darkness. They may have trouble letting go of their parents and resist going to school or daycare. Some children may even feel guilty thinking that they somehow caused the disaster through their bad behavior. Because of such common reactions, parents and others should begin as soon after the event as possible helping these children.Some suggestions include talking to the children about what happened, letting the children express their own feelings, spending extra time with them doing activities together and reassuring them that you love them and won't leave them. For some children expressing themselves through drawing pictures or writing can be useful. Do everything possible to help children get back to a normal routine; however, don't be afraid to "spoil" these children for a while after the disaster. Let them have extra privileges and more attention than usual. Encourage the children to grieve after a loss. It should be OK for them to cry. Caring families and friends can do much to heal children victims of disasters.46. This passage is mainly about_______.A. how to help traumatized children to get overB. the bad effects disasters bring to childrenC. the psychological problems children before ten are likely to sufferD. the importance of caring families47. According to the passage, a child who has just experienced a devastating disaster may become______.A. more matureB. less dependentC. willing to helpD. ready to attack48. Which is NOT advisable when dealing with the traumatized children?A. Allowing them freedom for some time.B. Asking them to hold their feelings.C. Encouraging them to show their grief.D. Talking them into taking care of others.B篇The English policeman has several nicknames but the most frequently used are “copper” and “bobby”. The first name comes from the verb to “cop”, meaning to “take” or “capture”, and the second comes from the first name of Sir Robert Peel, the nineteenth-century politician, who was the founder of the police force as we know it today. An early nickname for the policeman was “peeler”, but this one has died out.Whatever we may call them, the general opinion about the police seems to be a good one except, of course, among the criminal part of the community where the police are given more bad nicknames which came from America, such as “fuzz” or “pig”. Visitors to England seem, nearly always, to be very impressed by the English police. It has, in fact, become a standing joke that the visitor to Britain, when asked for his views of the country, will always say, “I think your policemen are wonderful.”Well, the British bobby may not always be wonderful but he is usually a very friendly and helpful sort of character. A music-hall song of some years ago was called, “If You Want To Know The Time, Ask A Policeman”. Nowadays, most people own watches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions to ask the policemen. In London, the policemen spend so much of their time directing visitors about the city that one wonders how they ever find time to do anything else! Two things are noticeable to the stranger, when he sees an English policeman for the first time.The first is that he does not carry a gun and the second is that he wears a very special type of helmet(头盔). His helmet, together with his height, enables an English policeman to be seen from a long distance, a fact that is not without its usefulness. From time to time it is suggested that the policeman should be given a gun and that his helmet should be taken from him, but both these suggestions are not accepted by the majority of the public and the police themselves.49.The nickname that is not used now is ___________.A.pig B.peeler C.fuzz D.bobby50.Which of the following statements is true?A.There are fewer criminals in America than in Britain.B.The English police usually leave a deep impression on visitors.C.The British bobby is friendly but not helpful.D.The English police enjoy having guns.51.If you see an English policeman for the first time, you will probably notice at once that ___________.A.he often tells people timeB.he is usually trying to tell others the timeC.he has a helmet on his headD.he wears special clothes52.In London, what do the policemen often do during their work-time nowadays?A.Direct anyone in the city B.Tell others the timeC.Nothing D.Show visitors the right way in the city 53.Visitors praise the English police because ___________.A.they are armed with modern equipmentB.they wear special helmetsC.they are often given thanks by peopleD.they are polite and helpful1-5 ADDDA 6-10.CAADC11-15.DDCBB16-20BAACA 21-25 ACAAA26—45 DBACD ABCDB ACDBA CDABC46-53 ADB BBCDD。

ASuppose you’re in a rush, felling tired, not paying attention to your screen, and you send an email that could get you in trouble.Realization will probably set in seconds after you’ve clicked “send”. You freeze in horrors and burn with shame. What to do? Here are four common email accidents, and how to recover.Clicking “send” too soonDon’t waste your time trying to find out if the receivers has read it yet. Write another email as swiftly as you can and send it with a brief explaining that this is the correct version and the previous version should be ignored. Writing the wrong timeThe sooner you notice, the better. Respond quickly and briefly, apologizing for your mistake. Keep the tone measured: don’t handle it too lightly, as people can be offered, esp ecially if your error suggests a misunderstanding of their culture(i.e. incorrect ordering of Chinese names).Clicking “reply all” unintentionallyYou accidentally reveal(透露)to entire company what menu choices you would prefer at the staff Christmas dinner, or what holiday you’d like to take. In this instance, the best solution is to send a quick, light-hearted apology to explain your awkwardness. But it can quickly rise to something worse, when everyone starts hitting “reply all” to join in a long and unpleasant conversation. In this instance, step away from your keyboard to allow everyone tocalm down.Sending an offensive message to its subjectThe most awkward email mistake is usually committed in anger. You write an unkind message about someone, intendi ng to send it to a friend, but accidentally send it to the person you’re discussing. In that case, ask to speak in person as soon as possible and say sorry. Explain your frustrations calmly and sensibly—see it as an opportunity toclear up any difficulties you may have with this person.1. After realising an email accident, you are likely to feel _______.A. curiousB. tiredC. awfulD. funny2.If you have written the wrong name in an email, it is best to ________.A. Apologize in a serious mannerB. tell the receiver to ignore the errorC. learn to write the name correctlyD. send a short notice to everyone3. What should you do when an unpleasant conversation is started by your “reply all” email?A. Try offering other choices.B. Avoid further involvement.C. Meet other staff members.D. Make a light-hearted apology.4. How should you deal with the problem caused by an offensive email?A. By promising not to offend the receiver again.B. By seeking support from the receiver’s friends.C.

B.Noisy.C.Discouraged. D.Annoyed.CParents and kids today dress alike,listen to the same music,and are friends.Is this a good thing?Sometimes,when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter,Elizabeth,listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy,such as pop culture,he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.“I would never have said to my mom,‘Hey,the new Weezer album is really great.How do you like it?’”says Ballmer.“There was just a complete gap in taste.”Music was not the only gulf.From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations,earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.Today,the generation gap has not disappeared,but it is getting narrow in many families.Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago.Now they are comfortable and common.And parent-child activities,from shopping to sports,involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood.No wonder greeting cards today carry the message,“To my mother,my best friend.”But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents.“There’s still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents,but there is a change happening,”says Kerrie,a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College.“In the middle of that change,there is a lot of confusion among parents.”Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving roles and attitudes.They see the 1960s as a turning point.Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say.“My parents were on the ‘before’ side of that change,but today’s parents,the 40-year-olds,were on the ‘after’ side,”explains Mr.Ballmer.“It’s not something easily accomplished by parents these days,because life is more difficult to understand or deal with,but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”10.The underlined word gulf in Para.3 most probably means ________.A.interest B.distance C.difference D.separation11.The change in today’s parentchild relationship is ________.A.more confusion among parentsB.new equality between parents and childrenC.less respect for parents from childrenD.more strictness and authority on the part of parents12.By saying “today’s parents,the 40-year-olds,were on the ‘after’ side,”the author means that today’sparents ________.A.follow the trend of the changeB.can set a limit to the changeC.fail to take the change seriouslyD.have little difficulty adjusting to the changeDWorking from home is more and more popular as a means of escaping the nine-to-five office life. Why do you work under the eye of your boss when you can work in front of the TV in your slippers?Armed with all the necessary things—telephone,computer,e-mail and fax,many workers believe they can work as effectively as their colleagues in the office. Being able to work wherever you like:from a busy city to a village,and not having to stand the daily things,make working from home an attractive choice. If you wish,you can even work on a river boat.So what will become of the office tomorrow?It is possible that many could go into computer space creating a new wave of virtual(虚拟的) offices. To minimize office in inner-city areas,companies will have a work force made up of a network of home workers linked by an advanced communication and information system. A central processing computer would be controlled by the manager who sends out work schedules and oversees(监视) the activity of each employee.A video screen would be created,as the need for e-mail or telephone becomes greater. Seeing the mood and expressions of work colleagues,managers would have the ability to view several employees at once on their screen. Employees would be encouraged to feed any information that may be useful to fellow workers into the computer to ma ke the company work more effectively. As the company’s lifeblood,the computer would contain a record of all conversations and communication for future reference and hold secret information such as accounts in password(口令) protected areas.13.The passage is mainly about ________.A.the importance of working in the futureB.how to escape your officeC.how to work with a computerD.virtual offices in the future14.According to the passage, which of the following things is NOT necessary for a virtual office?A.A manager. B.An office building.C.A telephone. D.A central processing computer.15.From the passage we can learn that ________.A.a computer is the only necessary thing in a virtual office.B.in a virtual office, all information is open to workers.C.managers can observe their employees in a virtual office.D.the number of employees will be smaller in a virtual office.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。

Sadly, she went to the holy man and asked, “What magical things do you have to bring my son back to life?”Instead of sending her away or reasoning with her, he said to her, “Fetch me a mustard (芥菜) seed from a home that has never known sadness. We will use it to dr ive the sadness out of your life.” The woman happily went off at once in search of that magical mustard seed.She first came to a splendid house, knocked at the door and said, “I am looking for a home that has never known sadness. Is it such a place? It i s very important to me.”They told her “You’ve certainly come to the wrong place” and began to describe all the tragic things that had happened to them recently.The woman said to herself, “I have had misfortune of my own. Who is able to help these poor, unfortunate people?” She stayed to comfort them, and then went on in search of a home that had never known sadness. But wherever she went, she found one tale after another of sadness and misfortune. She became so involved in other people’s sorrow that fin ally she forgot about her search for the magical mustard seed, never realizing that it had, in fact, driven the sadness out of her life.40.

A nice surpriseC. The holy man’s faithD. Cure for sadnessCGwendolyn Brooks wrote hundreds of poems during her lifetime. She was known around the world for using poetry to increase understanding of black culture in America.During the 1940’s and the 1950’s, Gwendolyn Brooks used her poems to describe conditions among the poor, racial(种族的) inequality and drug use in the black community. She also wrote poems about the struggles of black women.But her skill was more than her ability to write about struggling black people. She combined traditional European poetry styles with the African American experience.Gwendolyn Brooks once said that she wrote about what she saw and heard in the street. She said she found most of her materials through looking out of the window of her second-floor apartment in Chicago, Illinois.In her early poetry, Gwendolyn Brooks wrote about the South Side of Chicago, where many black people live. In her poems, the South Side is called Bronzeville. It was “A Street in Bronzeville” that gained the attention of literary experts in 1945. Critics praised her poetic skills and her powerful descriptions about the black experience during the time. The Bronzeville poems were her first published collection.In 1950, Gwendolyn Brooks became the first African American to win the Pulitzer Prize for Literature. She won the prize for her second book of p oems called “Annie Allen”. “Annie Allen” is a collection of poetry about a Bronzeville girl as a daughter, a wife and a mother. She experiences loneliness, loss, death and poverty (贫穷).Gwendolyn Brooks said that winning the prize changed her life.Her ne xt work was a novel written in 1953 called “Maud Martha”. “Maud Martha” attracted little attention when it was first published. But now it is considered an important work by some critics. Its main ideas about the difficult lives of many women are popular among female writers today.44. Gwendolyn Brooks became world-famous because .A. she was an expert on the language of poetryB. she introduced black culture by writing poemsC. she fought for black rights by writing poemsD. her poems showed the lives of black women45. Which of the following can we learn from the text?A. Gwendolyn Brooks’ poems focused on black people in Africa.B. Winning the Pulitzer Prize for Literature was important to Brooks.C. Gwendolyn Brooks used to suffer a lot from drugs.D. Gwendolyn Brooks was very strict with herself.46. How did Gwendolyn Brooks get ideas for most of her poems?A. By observing life.B. By having talks.C. By reading widely.D. By traveling.47. We can infer that the book “Annie Allen” mainly deals with .A. family lifeB. inequalityC. adventureD. failureDTraditionally poems would be recited and passed from poet to poet through the ages. It is only recently that poetry is something that one reads alone, rather than reciting to an audience. At some point in the education of any student majoring in poetry, one will attempt to memorize a poem, and possibly recite it to someone else.Chances are that you have already memorized thousands of lines of verse in the form of lyrics. How did you memorize the lyrics of songs? You simply listened to songs you liked over and over again until you almost couldn’t help but have them memorized. Memorizing poetry isn’t much different. You start with a poem you like, recite it to yourself over and over again, and you get to know it.One of the best aspects of learning a poem by heart is that you get to take a poem inside of yourself. It becomes a part of you. When you m emorize a poem, it is no longer just a poem, but yours. It’s in your head, and you can call it up from memory as you would in any other experience.Also, memorizing a poem is a great way to truly get to understand languages, and consider every phrase, line, and word. You can practice varying the sounds, adding pauses and emphasis in different spots to try to find the most accurate tone for the poem. In a way, you never really know a poem until you’ve memorized it. Once you know it, you’ll be able to recite it, like a jazz musician improvising(即兴创作) inside a song’s boundaries –adding his own words or re-wording a section to make it his own.48. According to the text, in the past poems were .A. usually written in the form of songs by some musiciansB. mainly circulated among poets by oral communicationC. seldom chosen as teaching materials in most universitiesD. only something that people enjoyed alone by themselves49. Memorizing the lyrics of songs is mentioned in the text to .A. emphasize the importance of repetition in memorizing poemsB. describe the similar characteristics of poems and popular songsC. correct students’ wrong idea that reciting poems is very boringD. encourage students to develop the habit of listening to music50. What can we infer from the text?A. Varying the original sounds can damage the beauty of poetry.B. Readers can change the language of a poem to remember it.C. Many college students choose to major in literature at present.D. Memorizing poems can pave the way for writing poems.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。

In 35 years of smoking a pack a day, nothing else could make her at ease.Until ear seeds.Last June, her acupuncturist(针灸医生), Karen Kurtak, started attaching tiny black seeds of a special plant to specific points on her ears, to relieve her desire twice a week with needles.It is hard to say which aspect of her program helped Ms Fenzl stop smoking, but she believed her success belonged to the seeds she calls “life savers”.Long part of traditional Chinese medicine, “auricular therapy”,as it is called, includes stimulating key points of the outer ear with seeds or needles as in traditional acupuncture.Ear seeds have long been used in America for addiction treatment. But today, with the growing demand for alternative ways, there has been an increase in the practice of using ear seeds for health issues from anxiety to pain.“They are used for peop le in situations of trauma(外伤),” said Cynthia Neipris, a professor of the Pacific College of Chinese Medicine, which trains students to use ear seeds. “And, because the seeds are worn home, it's an added plus because it involves the patient in their own healing process.”It is not known precisely how ear seeds work nor has enough research been done to prove which ailments(小病) they help relieve. But licensed acupuncturists as well as doctors from world-class hospitals recommend them. Dr P. Grace Harrell, an anesthesiologist and an acupuncturist said, “We don't know exactly what the ear seeds do. What I do know is that more people are wearing them. I have patients coming in and asking for the seeds.”Do the wonderful seeds draw unwelcome attention? “No one has ever commented on them,” said Laura Soncrant, 32, who wears the seeds because of her insomnia(不眠症). She said that pressing on them throughout the day has improved her sleep to the point that she can't live without them now. “There are even those days when the seeds have fallen off and I want to go to the acupuncturist just for them.”16. The passage is mainly about________.A. the negative effects of ear seedsB. the uncertainty of ear seedsC. the modern uses of ear seedsD. the way of using ear seeds17. Michele Fenzl uses ear seeds to________.A. help relieve the ailments from smokingB. reduce her dependence on smoking so muchC. stimulate the key points of the outer earD. save her life from smoking18. It can be inferred from the passage that________.A. people haven't accepted the use of ear seedsB. ear seeds have long been used for health issuesC. ear seeds can save life in an emergent situationD. doctors from world-class hospitals think highly of ear seeds19. The unde rlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to________.A. ear seedsB. ailmentsC. all kinds of attentionD. acupuncture20.

ANo poem should ever be discussed or “analysed”, until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student.Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end, so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally, the most telling “interpretation” of it, suggesting the tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once.Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on records or on films, is obviously a special reward.But even those aids to teaching cannot replace the student and teacher reading it or, best of all, reciting it.I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analysing” it, if there isn’t time for both.I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry.Poetry is “a criticism of life”, and “heightening (提升) of life”.It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”, and it “can save your life”.It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry.Those who don’t like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else.But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.1.To have a better understanding of a poem, one should .A.discuss it with othersB.analyse it by oneselfC.copy it down in a notebookD.practise reading it aloud2.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a function of poetry?A.Extending your life.B.Saving your life.C.Criticizing life.D.Heightening life.3.The underline d phrase “make room” in the last paragraph could be best replaced by “”.A.build a roomB.provide equipmentC.leave a certain amount of timeD.set aside enough spaceBOne early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again. My interest was aroused only by the fact that theword “Poems” appeared in big, hot pink letters.“Is it good?” I asked her.“Yeah,” she answered. “There’s one I really like and you’ll like it, too.” I leaned forward.“‘Patty Poem’,” she read the title. Who is Patty? I wondered. The poem began:She never puts her toys away,Just leaves them scattered(散乱的) where they lay…The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:When she grows and gathers poise(稳重),I’ll miss her harum-scarum(莽撞的) noise,And look in vain(徒劳地) for scattered toys.And I’ll be sad.A terrible sorrow washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock.“It’s you, honey,” my mother said sadly.To my mother, the poem revealed a parent’s affection when her child grows up and leaves. To me, the “she” in the poem was a horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible that I burst out crying.“What’s wrong?” m y mother asked.“Oh mama,” I cried. “I don’t want to grow up ever!”She smiled. “Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll still love you, okay?”“Okay.” I was still weeping. My panic had gone. But I could not help thinkin g about that silly poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was confused. It all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple that I could plainly understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated by the idea of poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.I have since fallen in love with other poems, but “Patty Poem” remains my poem. After all, “Patty Poem” gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my spirits, but because it was the one that hurt me the most.4.Why was the writer attracted by the book Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again?A. It was a thick enough book.B. Her mother was reading it with interest.C. Something on its cover caught her eye.D. It had a meaningful title.5.After her mother read the poem to her, the writer felt at first.A. excitedB. sadC. horrifiedD. confused6.The writer’s mother liked to read “Patty Poem” probably bec ause.A. it reflected her own childhoodB. it was written in simple languageC. it was composed by a famous poetD. it gave her a hint of what would happen7.It can be concluded from the passage that “Patty Poem” leads the writer to .A. discover the power of poetryB. recognize her love for puzzlesC. find her eagerness to grow upD. experience great homesicknessCEven if you don’t have to work,eat or sleep,you won’t be able to get through all information on blogs and social networks.The problem we face is that much of this information seems very interesting at first glance. Actually,much of the information is unimportant,disposable and it distracts(分心) us from more meaningful pursuits.Worse still,when we spend lots of time consuming information from our social media streams,we may find it hard to concentrate on what we’re doing and we have a tendency to forget what we have consumed anyway.A new study from Sweden’s KTH Royal Institute of Technology has found that too much social media exposure actually reduces your ability to process information and depletes your short-term working memory.Our working memory plays a critical role in our capacity to filter information and remember what is valuable but it is not a limitless resource.Erik Fransén,a professor in computer science at KTH and the leader of this new study on social media overload, says this can explain why our capacity for processing information begins to fail when we attempt to stuff more information in the working memory.In fact,when you try to process the information like the speech or video,you are going to need partly the same system of working memory,so you are reducing your own working memory capacity.And when you try to store many things in your working memory,you get less good at processing information.It is the periods of downtime of your brain—preferably disconnected from the distractions of your computer or smartphone—that are needed for memory consolidation and transferring important information to your exposure to new information.Besides,you can empty your mind of thoughts quickly to relax completely,go for a short walk or spend a few minutes listening to music.This will help you improve your capacity to process information and increase your productivity.8.What can we learn about social media overload from Paragraph 1?A.It distracts our attention.B.It is beneficial to us.C.It brings us whatever we want.D.It keeps us informed of everything.9.Why does your capacity for processing information begin to fail sometimes?A.Much of the information is unimportant.B.You don’t make the most of your brain.C.You’re less good at processing information.D.Your working memory is a limited resource.10.What does the underlined word “downtime” in the last paragraph proba bly mean?A.Support.B.Relaxation.C.Increase.D.Loss.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。

AOne day I saw Harold, my neighbor, putting some metal sheets around the base of his tree where he kept his bird feeder.I didn't understand why until another neighbor explained to me that Harold was trying to keep the squirrels from eating the bird food.By putting the metal sheets around the base, Harold thought the squirrels wouldn't be able to climb up the tree.The next morning, the food was gone.The following week Harold figured he'd put the bird feeder on a string and hang it from the tip of one of the branches.I believe his thinking was that the squirrel couldn't go out to the edge of the branch because the branch wouldn't support the weight therefore not allowing the squirrel to get to the feeder.Next day, you got it, the food was gone, too.I felt sorry for Harold.Although Harold was stronger and smarter than the squirrel, he lacked the one quality that would guarantee him victory—focus.You see Harold thinks about ways of preventing the squirrel from getting the food on occasion, when he has time.The squirrel, on the other hand has its mind on getting that food 24 hours a day.The squirrels'survival depends on it.Survival brings about, not just focus but an intense focus on solving a problem by removing an obstacle.Success is not about who is stronger.Success is not about who has a better GPA(平均分数).Success is about who is more focused and committed to achieving their objectives.You, the reader, can compete with any person no matter who they may be.The only thing you have to do is commit yourself to focusing on the very subject that interests you.1.Harold was worried because the squirrel .A.ate his bird foodB.hurt many of his birdsC.could climb the tree quicklyD.reached the end of the branches【解析】细节理解题。

AAnimal Farm by George OrwellAnimal Farm is probably one of the most popular school reads in the world. George Orwell wrote it as a political allegory (讽喻) and has since then inspired the minds of not only adult revolutionaries but also the younger ones who start feeling the spark of being right and free for all of the humanity in their hearts.Persepolis by Marjane SatrapiThis is a wise, funny, and heartbreaking memory of Marjane Satrapi’ s years growing up in Iran during the Islamic Revolution, and how she dealt with life while experiencing the ruinous effects of the war with Iraq. The mistakes she felt she made opened her eyes and shaped her into being the influential individual she is today.To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper LeeRegarded as a masterpiece of literature — it is no wonder it won the Pulitzer Prize. The plot and characters are based on the author’ s observations of her family and neighbors, as well as on an event that occurred near her hometown in 1936, when she was 10 years old. The novel is famous for its warmth and humor, despite telling a story of innocent Tom Robinson being accused of raping (强暴) a white woman because he was black.The Harry Potter series by J. K. RowlingA story showing the absolute courage of a young boy, who was never afraid to speak his mind in the face of injustice and would always defend the helpless. A boy shows us the importance of believing in ourselves and others. Harry Potter reminds us that the true power to defeat any enemy is not found in others, but found within each of us.语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。

D.Six.45.One benefit the participants get from poem recitation competitions is that they can ________.A.become skilled in speaking in publicB.write good poems themselvesC.change their attitudes towards lifeD.make friends with many great poets46.What's the main idea of the passage?A.Reciting poems improves your memory.B.Remembering a lot of poems is fun.C.Poets have a great time.D.Poetry competitions freshen us up.DRome wasn't built in a day, and the Internet didn't come out of a golden egg.Many of today's creations were born of people who had creative ideas, but who did not stop at simply having an idea.They took one brick of capital (资本), another brick of knowledge, perhaps a brick or two of family and friends, and built their empires brick by brick.If you want to build an online empire, you cannot settle for simply having a website full of articles, or a website full of pictures—there are already thousands of sites like that,so you need to come up with something new and creative.So if you are starting to build something up, ask yourself: what do you really want to do, and what are you really good at? Believe it or not, you can make money at something that you are an expert in, and you need to know what that is.Remember, having an online empire does not mean that you have to do it alone.You can take your_friends along with you.Having a friend advertise your services online is a good way to attract more visitors to your empire.Building an online empire, you will have to be prepared to not only come up with creative ideas, but to carry your ideas through.Talk to people who have already succeeded in building their own empires.Talk to people who are struggling.Join a mailing list that will help you get through your struggle to achieve your goal.As you move forward, you will find that you can help other people, and you will have a good many stories to tell—not to mention a lot of money in the bank.If you learn the real secrets of creating a long term stable online business then you will have enough money to retire on.47.Which of the following would be the BEST title for this passage?A.Never get addicted to the InternetB.Building an online empire of your ownC.How to get help from an online empireD.How to offer help through an online empire48.The proverb “Rome wasn't built in a day” applies to a situation where________.A.expert knowledge is badly neededB.you are short of money at the beginningC.online wealth has to be gained bit by bitD.family and friends will oppose your idea49.In the 4th paragraph “your friends” are mentioned because________.A.they can buy what you are sellingB.they can help make your website popularC.your friends know more about the WebD.you have a good relationship with your friends50.Joining a mailing list is a good way to________.A.get a lot of helpB.write many emailsC.make more e friendsD.talk people into purchasing your productⅣ.阅读填句(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)(2013·新课标全国卷Ⅰ)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。
人教版选修6Unit2单元综合检测学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择Do people travel to the other side of the globe with a one-year-old baby? I wondered if I was crazy.Before this trip, I had had various adventures — but this trip would he different. The South American adventure would be a unique life experience of mine. I had given up many activities in order to appease a new little person, because Anders’ needs had to come first. At the age of 34, it was a difficult change for me, and I was occasionally annoyed when I realized that my son had stripped (剥夺) so much from me.Argentina is a long way from my home. It seemed even longer when I was on the plane, sharing a seat with such an active boy, but Anders and I made it without angering any other passengers or getting any dirty looks. And we also took naps on a regular schedule.I wanted to do some hikes in the Andes in Argentina. I wanted to drive ten hours to the coast to see penguins. However,when I thought about my travel partner, I gave up these ideas. Instead, we just hung out by lakes, picking up stones and throwing them in the water. I took short hikes through the forests of Los Alerces National Park, running with Anders in the backpack, knowing that I had two hours before his tolerance gave out and complaints started.As I discovered later, traveling with a baby opens new doors that aren’t there for a traveler. Anders helped me to slow and look at the landscape more closely. I got to see the forests through someone else’s eyes. The traveling wasn’t as crazy or as fast-paced as it would have been if I had been alone, but the details were amazing. Now I just have to incorporate (使并入) that into our life back home.1.Why did the writer say that this trip was different?A.Because she had never been to South America before.B.Because she thought she wasn’t very young any more.C.Because she traveled with her little baby.D.Because Argentina was far from her home.2.The un derlined word “appease” in the second paragraph probably means “_______”. A.satisfy B.astonishC.confuse D.excite3.During the trip, the author and her baby ________.A.made other passengers angryB.made sure they got regular restC.shared a seat with other peopleD.had a very pleasant time on the plane4.What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A.Activities that the author wanted to do with her baby.B.Things the author’s baby liked to do.C.Activities the author shared with her baby.D.Things the author’s baby could not tolerate.5.The author wrote the passage in order to tell readers that ________.A.it is tiring to travel with a babyB.people should learn to enjoy details in their livesC.visitors should see Argentina through a baby’s eyesD.the details in life are more important than the resultsYour peers are people your age or close to it who have experiences and interests similar to yours. You and your friends make dozens of decisions every day, and you influence each other’s choices and behavior. This is often ________ —it’s human nature to listen to and learn from other people in your age group.Sometimes, though, the stresses in your life can actually come from your peers. They may pressure you into doing something you’re uncomfortable with, such as shoplifting, doing drugs or drinking, or taking dangerous risks when driving a car.The pressure to conform (随潮流) can be powerful and hard to resist. A person might feel pressure to do something just because others are doing it. Peer pressure can influence a person to do something that is relatively harmless — or something that has more serious consequences. People may feel pressure to conform, so they fit in or are accepted, or so they don’t feel awkward or uncomfortable. When people are unsure of what to do in a social situation, they naturally look to others for cues (暗示) about what is and isn’t acceptable.The people who are most easily influenced will follow someone else’s lead first. Then others may go along, too — so it can be easy to t hink, “It must be OK. Everyone else is doing it. They must know what they’re doing.” Before you know it, many people are going along withthe crowd — perhaps on something they might not otherwise do.Responding to peer pressure is part of human nature — but some people are more likely to give in, and others are better able to resist and stand their ground.It’s not always easy to resist negative peer pressure. But when you do, it is easy to feel good about it afterwards. And you may even be a positive influence on your peers who feel the same way — often it just takes one person to speak out or take a different action to change a situation.6.Which of the following is a kind of peer pressure?A.Your teachers give you a lot of homework.B.Your classmates persuade you to cut class.C.Your parents expect high scores from you.D.Your relatives invite you to attend a party.7.Which is most likely to be filled in the blank in Paragraph 1?A.positive B.negativeC.impossible D.uncertain8.Most people tend to do what others are doing in order to _________.A.get a feeling of being acceptedB.feel a sense of achievementC.set a good example for othersD.stand out in a crowd9.What can we know according to the author?A.Giving in to peer pressure is unavoidable.B.Peer pressure usually leads to serious results.C.Everyone can make a difference by resisting negative peer pressure.D.Going along with the crowd usually means making a right choice.10.This passage is mainly about _______.A.different types of peer pressureB.ways to deal with peer pressureC.thoughts on peer pressureD.the influence of peer pressure on peopleHere is some good news for people who are worried about great white sharks. USresearchers say that the number of great white sharks off the coast of California is likely to rise. They also say that they are not at risk of dying out. It’s really exciting, isn’t it? The findings suggest that there are around 2,000 white sharks swimming in the eastern North Pacific, not 219 as the research done three years ago suggested.“It’s a delightful thing to find that the largest and most powerful group in the sea are in good shape,” said George Burgess, director of the Florida Program for Shark Research. “That we found these sharks are doing OK and better than OK, makes us believe that other shark populations might also be doing well,” Mr. Burgess added.The earlier count was based on the research carried out in two places. These places are the Farallon Islands, west of San Francisco, and nearby Tomales Point. But sharks are difficult to count,and their populations are not stable at the two sites. As a result, researchers widened their research scope (范围) to include other known gathering spots, from Mexico to British Columbia and Alaska. By considering all life stages of sharks there, researchers found that their numbers were more likely around 2,000, not 219.The US National Marine Fisheries Service has declined to add white sharks to the endangered species list, estimating (估计) about 3,000 sharks in the eastern North Pacific. But, not all wild animals are so lucky. Some are still at risk of dying out. We all should do what we can to protect wild animals.11.From Paragraph 1, we can know that ________.A.great white sharks are still at risk of dying outB.great white sharks in the Pacific are rising fast in numberC.there are about 2,000 white sharks in the eastern North PacificD.there are about 219 white sharks in the eastern North Pacific12.George Burgess thinks the news is _______.A.disappointing B.surprisingC.worrying D.pleasing13.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A.Where white sharks mainly stay.B.What white sharks mainly feed on.C.Why white sharks like going to Tomales Point.D.How researchers get the number of while sharks.14.What does the underlined word “declined” in Paragraph 4 mean?A.Forgot. B.Agreed.C.Refused. D.Decided.15.The last paragraph is used by the author to _______.A.call on us to protect wild animalsB.tell us how to protect wild animalsC.call on us to keep protecting white sharksD.tell us about some other endangered animalsReading can be a social activity.Think of the people who belong to book groups.They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them.Now the website BookCrossing.com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share.BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book.Then the person leaves it in a public place,hoping that the book will have an adventure,traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson,the managing director of BookCrossing,says,"The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read.BookCrossing combines both."Members leave books on park benches and buses,in train stations and coffee shops.Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it.E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossers to keep them updated about where their books have been found.Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the"real"and not the virtual(虚拟).The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.16.Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?______A.To explain what they are.B.To introduce BookCrossing.C.To stress the importance of reading.D.To encourage readers to share their ideas.17.What does the underlined word"it"in Paragraph 2 refer to?______A.The book.B.An adventure.C.A public place.D.The identification number.18.What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?______A.Meet other readers to discuss it.B.Pass it on to another reader.C.Keep it safe in his bookcase.D.Mail it back to its owner.19.What is the best title for the text?______A.Online Reading:A Virtual TourB.Electronic Books:A new TrendC.A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD.A Website Links People through Books二、七选五To become a flexible reader, you need to know how to select and use a reading style that is consistent with your purpose reading. 20.Each has its own purpose.
