Our teachers treated us like __8__；never did we have to play “stand up” “sit down” “speak out”. I don't __9__one student who didn't try his best.The subjects were the same as those in __10__schools, but what a difference in the approach (方式)! For example，in botany(植物学)we had __11__ classes in the spring or fall, but instead we __12__ two gardens，a vegetable garden and a flower garden. __13__in winter we each studied a few particular things about what we had grown. In maths the students built three different kinds of store-rooms—small ones __14__，but usable. They did this instead of having lessons in the classroom.

Believe it or not, the Great Wall is being destroyed by people. Less than 20 percent of the Great Wall built in the Ming Dynasty is still perfect, but about 80 percent is in danger. The Great Wall can be called “great” mostly because of its amazing length. But we should realize that the length was made up of one brick at a time. If we do nothing to save the Great Wall, it will become a series of separate wasteland rather than a historic site.The Great Wall is actually a series of walls built and rebuilt by different dynasties over the past 2, 000 years. It began in t he rule of China’s first emperor, in Shihuang of the Qin Dynasty (221 BC~206 BC), and lasted into the Ming Dynasty. The parts built before the Ming Dynasty have nearly disappeared. People are familiar with sections such as Badaling in Beijing and Jiayuguan Pass in Gansu because they have been open to tourists for many years. But those sections far away from the public eyes have been almost forgotten.Few local people knew the 3-meter-high walls made of earth and stones beside them are part of the Great Wall. The lack of knowledge is considered as one of the main reasons behind human.The bricks on the Great Wall are carried off by countryside people to build their houses, sheep corral(畜栏)and pigsties(猪圈). Some were taken away to build roads. Bricks carved with people’s names are put away as remembrance. Rubbish is spread over the battlements(城垛). The bricks can be sold for 15yuan per tractor load. Those who destroyed and are destroying the Great Wall know its name, but are not clear about its cultural meaning. It will take a long time to let them know this. The local farmers not only carried off the body of the Wall but dug out the entire base.It is necessary to protect the Great Wall. First of all, the officials should be aware of the importance of the Great Wall. Young Chinese should know more about the nation’s great civilization and learn to love it.21. The main reason for which the Great Wall can be called “great” is .A. it was very longB. it was very wideC. it had a long historyD. it was made of bricks22. Why does the author say the Great Wall might disappear?A. It is useless from now on.B. It’s too old to be used again.C. It will be replaced by a new one.D. Some parts of it are being destroyed.23. The underlined part “those sections far away from the public eyes” refers to the parts of the Great Wall .A. nobody can watchB. that are too far to been seenC. that are too difficult to understandD. that are not well known to the public24. What’s the main reason of the Great Wall’s being destroyed?A. The local people are against the government.B. The local people are short of culture knowledge.C. The local people need bricks and stones to build houses.D. The local people think that the Great Wall is not important.三．语法填空（共10小题，每题1分，共10分）Dear Li Hua,I am 25 high school student in the UK.

四川省宜宾市一中高2014级2015-2016学年上学期第10周英语试题一、阅读理解Have you ever noticed advertisements which say “Learn a foreign language in 6 weeks, or your money back! From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send…” and so on? Of course, it never happens quite like that. The only language that is easy to learn is one’s mother tongue. And think how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War people usually learnt a foreign language in order to read the literature of the country.Now speaking a foreign language is what most people want. Every year millions of people start learning one. How do they do it? Some people try at home, with books and records of tapes; some use radio or television programs; some use computers and network; others go to evening classes. If they use the language only 2 or 3 times a week, learning it will take a long time, like learning a foreign language at school. A few people try to learn a language fast by studying for 6 or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn the language in the country where it is spoken.However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary. They need the language in order to do their work better. For example, scientists and doctors chiefly need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language. Whether the language is learnt quickly or slowly, it is hard work. Machines and good books will help, but they cannot do the student’s work for him.1. According to some advertisements, you ______.A. have to pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeksB. needn’t pay your money if you cannot learn a foreign language in 6 weeksC. must pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeksD. will be paid much money if you cannot learn a foreign language in 6 weeks2. Now most people try to learn a foreign language in order to ______.A. read the literature of the countryB. read books and reportsC. do their work betterD. go to foreign countries3. Learning a foreign language is a hard job ______.A. only for scientists and doctorsB. only for the students atschoolC. for those people at homeD. for most peopleBIf you go into the woods with your friends, stay with them. If you don’t, you may get lost. If you do get lost, this is what you should do.Sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends — let them find you. You can help them to find you by staying in one place.There is another way to help your friends or other people nearby to find you. Give them a signal by shouting or whistling three times. Stop. Then shout or whistle three times again. Any signal given three times is a call for help. You will be helped by others.Keep up the shouting or whistling, always three times together. When people hear you, they will know that you are not just making noise for fun. They will let you know they have heard your signal. They will give two shouts, two whistles or two gunshots. When a signal is given twice, it is an answer to a call for help.If you don’t think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house and cover up the holes with branches with lots of leaves and grass. What should you do if you get hungry or need to drink some water? You should have to leave your little branch house to look for a brook. Don’t just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk so that you can find your way back.The most important thing to do when you are lost is — stay in one place.4. How do you let people believe that you are not just making noise for fun?A. Stop now and then.B. Go on shouting or whistling.C. Shout over and over at the top of voice.D. Shout or whistle three times once a while.5. If nobody answers you after your signal, what should you do then?A. Give two gunshots.B. Shout louder.C. Stop shouting.D. Make a house.6. If you feel thirsty when you are lost in the forest, what should you do?A. Go and find a brook.B. Light a fire and make yourself some tea．C. Go to find a brook and leave marks behind you.D. Find something to hold the water.7. What’s the best title for the passage?A. What Do Three Shots And Two Shots Mean In A ForestB. How To Find Your Friends When You Are Lost In The WoodsC. What To Do If You Get Lost In A ForestD. The Most Important Thing To Do Is To Stay In One PlaceCPeople seem to have a natural need for friends and with good reason. Friends increase your enjoyment of life and relieve feelings of loneliness. They even can help reduce stress and improve your health. Having good friends is especially helpful when you are going through any kind of hard time such as when you are experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, or depression.When you are with good friends you feel good about yourself, and you are glad to be with them. A friend is someone who —●you like, respect, and trust, and who likes, respects and trusts you●doesn’t always understand you, but accepts and likes you as you are, even as you grow and change●allows you the space to change, grow, make decisions, and even make mistakes●listens to you and shares with you both the good times and the bad times●respects your need for secrets, so you can tell them anything●let s you freely express your feelings and emotions without judging, teasing, or criticizing you●accepts the limitations you have put on yourself and helps you to remove themA person once said, “Friendship is a continuing source of bonding, releasing, and creating in yourself and with the other person. There is an emotional bond between the two people.”A good friend or supporter may or may not be the same age or the same sex as you, and may not have the same educational, cultural, or religious background, or share interests that are similar to yours. Friendships also have different depths. Some are closer to the heart and some more superficial, but they’re all useful and good.8. Which of the following is NOT a function of a friend?A. He brings you some happiness.B. He helps you feel less lonely.C. He helps you get over the difficulties.D. He helps you cheat on the exam.9. The underlined word “superficial” means _______.A. deepB. hardC. shallowD. close10. Which is the best title for the passage?A. A Friend in Need Is A Friend IndeedB. What Kind of Person A Friend Should BeC. To Be A Good FriendD. How to Get on with Your FriendDMy friend’s grandfather came to America from a farm in Thailand. After arriving in New York, he went into a cafeteria in Manhattan to get something to eat. He sat down at an empty table and waited for someone to take his order. Of course nobody did. Finally, a woman with a big plate full of food came up to him. She sat down opposite him and told him how a cafeteria worked.“Start out at that end,” she said, “Just go along the line and choose what you want. At the other end they’ll tell you how much you have to pay.”“I soon learned that’s how everything works in America,” the grandfather told my friend later, “Life’s a cafeteria here. You can get anything you want as long as you want to pay the price. You can even get success, but you’ll never get it if you wait for someone to bring it to you. You have to get up and get it yourself.”11．My friend’s grandfather came from .A．Thailand B．Manhattan C. New York D. China12．The grandfather went into a cafeteria to .A. wait for someoneB. get something to eatC. meet my friendD. buy something13．The woman in the cafeteria might be .A. a waitress B .a friend of grandpa’s C．a customer D. an assistant14．What should we do to get food in a cafeteria?A.

AHummingbirds (蜂鸟) are very small birds. This small bird is quite an acrobat (杂技演员). Only a few birds, such as kingfishers and sunbirds, can hover, which means to stay in one place in the air. But no other bird can match the flying skills of the hummingbird. The hummingbird can hover, fly backward and fly upside down!Hummingbirds got their name because their wings move very quickly when they fly. This causes a humming sound. Their wings move so fast that you can’t see them at all. This takes a lot of energy. These little birds must have food about every 20 minutes to have enough strength to fly. Their favorite food is nectar (花蜜). Nectar is the sweet water deep inside a flower. Hummingbirds use their long, thin bills to drink from flowers. When a hummingbird drinks nectar, it hovers in front of a flower. It never touches the flower with its wings or feet.Of all the birds in the world, the hummingbird’s colors are among the brightest. Some are bright green with red and white markings. Some are purple. One kind of hummingbird can change its color from reddish-brown to purple to red!The hummingbird’s nest (巢) is special, too. It looks like a small cup. The inside of the nest is very soft. This is because one of the things the mother bird uses to build the nest is the silk from a spider’s web (蜘蛛网).21. What is special about hummingbirds?A. They are the only birds that can hover.B. They have excellent flying skills.C. They can walk on water.D. They can fly very high.22. Hummingbirds got their name from _____.A. theirfoodB. their small bodiesC. the sound theymakeD. the color of their wings23. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A. Hummingbirds’ markings are dark.B. A kind of hummingbird has one color.C. The hummingbird is one of the prettiest birds.D. Some hummingbirds change their colors for protection.24. According to the text, a hummingbird’s nest is _____.A. difficult to findB. hard and strongC. made by the father birdD. built partly from spider silkBWe just love giving cards in Britain. If there’s a sp ecial occasion coming up, there’s no doubt that we’ll be there, card in hand, to celebrate it.And this isn’t just for birthdays; we also give cards when people are ill or when they have got a new job. And even if you forgot somebody’s birthday, there are even “sorry it’s late” cards. So you can pretty much find a card for any occasion.Before coming to Italy I had never even considered that our love for card giving might not be shared by other countries. In fact, my workmates told me that hardly anyone sendsChristmas cards in Italy and that they actually don’t really give birthday cards either! Unbelievable! In the UK, if a close friend or family member didn’t get me a card I’d feel upset! However, the only place you can buy cards in Italy is in a shop which sells school things. In comparison, we have whole shops that sell them in the UK and we even have different types of card shops.Although cards can take up your time, from choosing the perfect one, to thinking up the personal message inside, I think it’s a really nice gesture. And especially with Christmas cards, it adds to that festive feeling. When I sit down to write countless cards to friends and family, I get that little bit happier that it will be Christmas soon! Especially when I see my own Christmas cards, proudly sitting on my desk wishing me a very merry Christmas.Of course, the problem comes when they’re no longer needed, when Christmas is over. It makes me sad just to throw them all away, so I try and hang on to my favorite ones.25. According to Paragraph 1, in the UK card giving _____.A. is very popularB. is changing people’s livesC. is mainly carried out on birthdaysD. is more common between family members26. After arriving in Italy, the author found that _____.A. Italians seldom send cardsB. cards are sold in card shopsC. the relationship between people is badD. card giving is losing its attraction slowly27. Which of the following may the author agree with?A. Self-made cards make Christmas happy.B. Giving cards doesn’t take up any time.C. Throwing cards away is a bad gesture.D. There is no need to save every card.28. What’s the author’s attitude towards card giving?A. He supports it.B. He doubts it.C. He disagrees with it.D. He is uninterested in it.CPeople are always looking for lost cities and occasionally one is found: Borobudur in Indonesia, for example. But perhaps some of the places people look for never existed — or did they? Here are just a few famous mythical (传说中的) cities.El DoradoEl Dorado is a story that began in 1537, when Spanish explorers found the Muisca people in the mountains of what is now Colombia. They heard the story of a man who covered himself with gold and dived into a lake. Then people began to talk of El Dorado —‘the golden man’. Soon people started to think of El Dorado as a place, too — a city of gold and amazing riches. Nowadays, the name ‘El Dorado’ is still used to mean ‘a place where you can get rich quickly’.AtlantisThere was once an island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. It was the mythical island of Atlantis. The people of the island were very rich, thanks to the natural resources on their island. For hundreds of years, they lived simple lives. But slowly they began to change. They started to want power. So the gods decided to destroy Atlantis.

Should there be a compulsory age limit?Many old people work well into their 70s and 80s, running families, countries or corporations. Other people, however, despite being fit and highly talented, are forced to retire in their fifties or even earlier because of the regulations of a company or the nation. This essay will examine whether people should be allowed to continue working as long as they want or whether they should be encouraged to retire at a particular stage.Some people think there are several arguments for allowing older people to continue working as long as they are able. First of all, older employees have a large amount of knowledge and experience which can be lost to a business or organization if they are made to retire. A second point is that older employees are often extremely loyal employees and are more willing to carry out company policies than younger less committed staff. However, a more important point is regarding the attitudes in society to old people. To force someone to resign or retire at 60 indicates that the society does not value the input of these people and that their useful life is over. Age is irrelevant to a working life, surely if older employees are told they cannot work after 60, this is age discrimination. That they become old does not necessarily mean they are going to be sick. Old people could be more aware, experienced and committed than some youngsters.Others, however, think that allowing older people to work indefinitely is not a good policy. Age alone is no guarantee of ability. Old people are only ambitious workaholics who are too selfish and self­centered to believe that a younger person could do better. Actually, many younger employees have more experience or skills than older staff, who may have been stuck in one area or unit for most of their working lives. Having compulsory retirement allows new ideas in an organization. In addition, without agelimits, however, many people would continue to work purely because they did not have any other plans or roles. A third point of view is that older people should be rewarded by society for their life's labor by being given generous pensions and the freedom to enjoy their leisure. We now have youngsters who can't find jobs because old people are choosing not to retire. Old people are not retiring because this new generation of “old people” think they will never die due to modern advances in medicin e.With many young people unemployed or frustrated in low­level positions, there are often calls to compulsorily retire older workers. However, this can affect the older individual's freedom and right to work and can deprive (剥夺) society of valuable experience and insights. I feel that giving workers more flexibility and choice over their retirement age will benefit society and the individual.5．What is the purpose of this passage?A．To explain the compulsory age limit.B．To discuss the retirement age.C．To examine people's working life.D．To introduce a particular stage.解析：选B6．Which of the following is NOT a reason for allowing old people to continue working according to the passage?A．Their contributions should be valued.B．Their experience should be made use of.C．They can help the youngsters.D．They are loyal employees.解析：选C7．It can be inferred in the fourth paragraph that ________.A．the young people have more creative spiritsB．modern advances in medicine make old people never dieC．pensions and freedom are not given to the old nowD．old people believe that a younger person could do better解析：选A8．The passage is arranged as follows：________.解析：选A三.语法填空(2016·广西桂林一模)Our experience at the Children's Medical Care Center was eye­opening.

四川省宜宾市一中高2014级英语教研组2016-2017学年上期第11周周训练题第一节：阅读理解In ancient Egypt, a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making changes to its environment. Modem businesses have been following his lead, with more tactics (策略).One tactic includes where to display the goods. For example, stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food later in their trip. In department stores, the women's shoe section is generally next to the women's cosmetics (化妆品) section, while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later.Besides, businesses seek to attractive customers' senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan(煽动) the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wines went up.When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding （优惠）tactics. They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The immediate view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.1. Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?A. To show they are high quality foods.B. To help sell junk food.C. To sell them at discount prices.D.To save customers time.2. According to Paragraph 3, which of the following encourages customers to buy?A. Filling the store with the smell of fresh breadB. Opening the store early in the morning.C. Displaying British wines next to French ones.D. Inviting customers to play music.3. What is the California builder's story meant to prove?A. A good first impression increases sales.B. The house structure is a key factor customers consider.C. The more costly the house is, the better it sells.D. An ocean view is much to the customers' taste.4. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To show dishonest business practices.B. To explain how businesses turn people into their customers.C. To introduce how businesses have grown from the past.D. To report researches on customer behavior.第二节：完形填空Dad had a green comb.
