AHere are some pet-friendly universities in the UK and US.University of IllinoisStudents are allowed up to two pets in each apartment, as well as a fish tank of no more than 50 gallons.To keep a pet, you will need to get approval from the Family & Graduate housing department at the University of Illinois. You will have to provide proof that your pet is up to date with its vaccinations(疫苗), and pay a monthly US$30 pet fee, which is non-refundable(不可退款的).Your pet can’t be left for extended periods of time, and if there’s evidence that you’ve left it alone due to vacation or illness, the university may remove it.Harvard UniversityWith as many as 12 pet-friendly apartments, Harvard is a very pet-friendly university. It allows students to have fish in a tank of no more than 50 gallons, except for Harvard’s Cronkhite Graduate Center.In Harvard’s pet-friendly apartments, you’re allowed: one cat or one dog, which can’t be over 40 pounds when fully grown. At most, two pet birds.University of British Columbia Students can take advantage of the university’s B．A．R. K program, which uses the calming power of therapy dogs to help them.B．A．R. K started at the University of British Columbia, after an assistant professor called Dr. John-Tyler Binfet noticed that he couldn’t walk across campus without students running over to play with his dog, Frances. The students told him they were homesick and missed their pets, which encouraged Binfet to establish B．A．R. K as a way of fighting their loneliness.University of OxfordThe University of Oxford is famous for its resident pets, who happily wander around college grounds. Many Oxford colleges have their own tortoise and take part in the annual Corpus Christi tortoise race.Although you are not allowed to keep your own pet as a student, several Oxford colleges hold dog petting and walking therapy sessions.1．What is one of the rules for keeping pets at the University of Illinois?A．Pet keepers should pay a monthly US$ 30 pet fee which will be returned.B．Pets can’t be left alone in the apartments due to vacation or illness.C．Students have to keep fish in a fish tank of no more than 20 gallons.D．The cat or dog can’t be over 40 pounds when fully grown.2．Why did Dr. John-Tyler Binfet start B．A．R. K?A．To help students to fight against homesickness.B．To do research on dogs and train them to be pets.C．To help more professors to do exercise on campus.D．To give assistance to the pet dogs by offering them foods.3．Which university doesn’t allow students to keep pets?A．Harvard University. B．University of Oxford.C．University of Illinois. D．University of British Columbia.BA survey by the American Psychological Association shows that one in ten adults reads online news at least once an hour. A lot has been written about the mental health influence from news addiction, and in particular from reading negative reports. Just like junk food, “junk” news can be bad for our health.In recent years, things have been getting increasingly more negative. A study of the content of New Zealand’s largest newspaper showed that while in 1973 the average number of stories about death on the front page was 0.75, by 2013 it was 4.1(and no, there weren’t five times more people dying).What’s more, online news, and the stories we read on mobile phones in particular, tend to be even more negative than print. A 2019 study of 50 U.S. newspapers showed that mobile versions of newspapers report three times more stories about disasters and accidents than paper ones.Such negative reports lead people to believe that things are worse than they really are. They can lead to stress, worry and lower spirits.Experiments also suggest that loneliness and poor relationships have been connected with reading negative reports. After reading negative reports, people are less likely to help others. Even worse, when we check news on smart phones, we may “phub” our loved ones, which leads to lower relationship satisfaction.Negative reports attract our attention far more than positive ones. That’s a global happening. I hope, however, that if we realize that negative news is spoiling our moods, we might all be more willing to change. 4．Why is “junk food” mentioned in the first paragraph?A．To entertain readers.B．To introduce the topic.C．To make an advertisement.D．To keep readers away from it.5．What can we learn about the study in Paragraph 2?A．The death rate in New Zealand is very high.B．Print newspapers have become less popular.C．Stories about death have become less popular.D．Negative reporting has been increasing over years. 6．What may negative reports lead people to do?A．Live a hopeful life.B．Become more careful.C．Become less likely to help others.D．Pay more attention to their physical health.7．What does the underlined word “phub” in Paragraph 5 mean?A．Ignore B．Hate C．Laugh at D．Care about8．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．A Survey on News Reading Habits B．Negative Effects of Mobile PhonesC．Is Online News Better Than Print?D．Is Junk News a Danger to Health?CThere was once a boy called Mario who loved to have lots of friends at school. However, he wasn’t sure whether or not his classmates were his true friends, so he asked his grandpa. The old man answered, “I have just exactly what you need; it’s in the attic (阁楼). Wait here for a minute.”Grandpa left, soon returning as though carrying something in his hand, but Mario could see nothing there. “Take it. It’s a very special chair. Because it’s invisible (无形的) it’s rather difficult to sit on, but if you take it to school and you manage to sit on it, you’ll be able to tell who your true friends are.”Mario took the strange invisible chair and went to school. At break time he asked everyone to form a circle, and he put himself in the middle, with his chair. “Nobody move. You’re about to see something amazing,” Mario said.Then Mario tried sitting on the chair. He missed and fell straight onto his backside. Everyone had a pretty good laugh. Mario wouldn’t be beaten. He kept trying to sit on the magic chair, and kept falling to theground... until, suddenly, he tried again and didn’t fall. This time he sat, hovering (悬停) in mid-air.Looking around, Mario saw George, Lucas, and Diana — three of his best friends — holding him up, so he wouldn’t fall. At the same time, many others he had thought of as friends were doing nothing but make fun of him, enjoying each and every fall.Leaving with his three friends, Mario explained to them how his grandpa had so cleverly thought of such a good idea. Now he knows that those who take joy in our misfortunes (不幸) when we are in difficulty are not our true friends.9．What did Mario’s grandpa take from the attic?A．An invisible chair.B．An old chair.C．A real chair.D．Nothing.10．Why did Mario’s grandpa give him the invisible chair?A．To see whether Mario could sit on it. B．To test who were Mario’s true friends.C．To let Mario have fun with his classmates.D．To test whether Mario was popular at school. 11．How was Mario able to hover in mid-air?A．He saw the invisible chair suddenly. B．He managed to sit on the chair finally.C．His friends held him up with their hands. D．His classmates gave him a chair to sit on.12．What does the story tell us?A．Never laugh at our friends. B．True friends can help us do magic.C．True friends are those who care for us. D．Having too many good friends isn’t a good thing.DSure, it’s good to get along well with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.And yes, it’s good to get along well with your teacher because, in general, it’s smart to learn how to get along well with the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.In fact, kids who get along well with their teachers not only learn more, but they’re more comfortable with asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier for them to understand new materials and makes them do their best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school issues (问题).Here is a question：What if you don’t get along with your teachers? In fact, teachers want to get along well with you and enjoy seeing you learn. But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes (个性冲突), which can happen between any two people. If you show your teacher that you want to make the situation better, he or she will probably do everything possible to make that happen. By dealing with a problem like this, you learn something about how to get along with people who are different from you.However if a certain teacher isn’t your favorite, you can still have a successful relationship with him or her especially if you fulfill (履行) your basic responsibilities as a student.Here are some of those responsibilities (责任)：Attend class ready to learn.Be prepared for class with the right stationery, books, and completed assignments (作业).Listen when your teacher is talking.Do your best, whether it’s a classroom assignment, homework, or a test.13．According to the passage, what will happen to you when getting along well with your teachers ?A．We will have no problems with studyB．We will get a better seat in the classroomC．We will get the best scores in the examsD．We will have more pleasant time in the classroom14．What does the underlined word “that” refers to in the fourth paragraph?A．The happy time you have in the classroomB．Getting along very well with classmatesC．A better relationship between you and your teacherD．The disappearance of personality differences15．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．The importance of friendship in schools.B．The importance of a good relationship with your teachers.C．Studying skills for students.D．Useful skills to get along well with your teachers.16．As a student, what will you do if you don’t like a certain teacher ?A．You fulfill (履行) your basic responsibilities as a studentB．You are thought of as a good studentC．You know some basic social skillsD．You are easygoing and helpful第二节七选五(每小题1分，共5分，根据短文内容，选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

In late September or early October, falling fruits as hard as baseballs threaten the skulls (头骨) of you, your children, your neighbors and those that reside next door to them. Umbrellas in the yard are a must while dining in early August, and as for me, I wear my bike helmet while working in the garden.The black walnut also releases a chemical substance through its roots as a competitive strategy. It’s poisonous to several common plants. There have been many new plant varieties tha t I brought home with hopes that maybe the black walnut would accept them, but they failed toflourish.What does work are native plants that naturally grow in the area. Native plants are important to have around since they provide beneficial pollinators (传粉者) like birds, bees and butterflies with seeds and contribute to a healthy and biodiverse environment. Native plants for this area are generally easy to grow, so they experience less stress.Have I thought of getting rid of this giant pain in my tiny backyard? Yes, however, getting rid of this tree standing at 50 feet with an 87-inch trunk is next to impossible. It’s also protected under the law. Rightfully so. Trees are important to the urban forest and for all of those that inhabit it.Sometimes I think about my life without the black walnut. I can’t imagine a spring without the birds who arrive every year and loudly sing their songs before dawn. I’d miss falling asleep on lazy weekend afternoons as I look up into its leaves.Every spring, I wonder what the season holds: What are the chances of being knocked unconscious while barbecuing? Like any good relationship, I’ll never be pleased. I’m stuck with this tree, so I’ll listen to its needs and give it the space it requires. In return, my walnut offers a habitat for wildlife and a reminder.19．Why does the author wear a bike helmet while working in the garden?A. To protect the injured skull.B. To prevent herself from sunburn.C. To avoid being hit by the nuts.D. To reduce the chance of getting bitten by bees.20．What is the tree’s survival strategy?A. It attracts beneficial pollinators.B. It lets out poison to drive away pests.C. It produces a chemical fatal to some plants.D. It competes for nutrition with similar species.21．Which of the following DOESN’T account for the author’s love-hate relationship with the tree?A. The volume of its fruits may bring inconvenience.B. The tree outcompetes the native plants in the garden.C. The tree is home to numerous birds and other creatures.D. The presence of the tree takes up much space of the garden.22．The author most probably got a reminder from the tree that ________.A. it’s better to give than to takeB. trees and plants have their own ways to flourishC. even a good relationship is not always trouble-freeD. acceptance, instead of resistance, is the better way to beCIt was raining like nothing before when Ehdaa Bujeldain, an English teacher living with her family in the mountains of Derna in eastern Libya , heard a loud noise that sounded like an explosion (爆炸). Later they learned that a dam (大坝) in Derna had broken down under the pressure of running water. For the next four days, they had no power or internet, and it was only recently that they started to fully understand of the damage caused by the floods.“Half of the city has been destroyed. My mom’s relatives, my friends, my coworkers ——they are all gone. Now we, the survivors, are just ghost s in shells,” says Bujeldain, whose sadness can be easily told from her blank expression.Five days have passed since the terrible flooding in Derna, Libya’s Red Crescent organization estimated that 11,300 people have died, while the city’s mayor believes the number of deaths could be as high as 20,000.Derna is a coastal city with a seasonal river called the Wadi Derna. Despite the abnormally heavy rain, people living near the river had little warning before the floodwaters came rushing in on that terrible morning. United Nations aid chief Martin Griffiths described the scale of the flood as “appalling” (令人惊骇的) and blamed the flood partly on sudden climate change.Now international aid teams are arriving in Derna, but they face challenges due to damaged roads, lack of access to power, water, and fuel. Tarhoni, doctor of the rescue team, warns that the most difficult weeks lie ahead. “One disaster is done and there is another to come,” he says. “The thousands and thousands of people who lost everything these people now need comfort, they need company, t hey need psychological support.”23．What do we know about Bujeldain’s family from paragraph 1?A. The explosion they heard led to the destruction of the dam.B. Bujeldain saved her family from the floods with her bravery.C. Bujeldain immediately recognized the outbreak of the floods.D. For several days, they didn’t fully realize the seriousness of the floods.24．What does Bujeldain mean by saying they are “just ghosts in shells” in paragraph 2?A. They run out of energy and are very tired.B. They feel lucky as they are safe and sound.C. They are completely saddened and shocked.D. They are sorry for the loss of their homeland.25．According to the passage, which of the following does NOT contribute to the loss of lives?A. The absence of warning.B. The extraordinary rainfall.C. Unexpected climate change.D. The damage to environment.26．What might be the main focus of international aid efforts in Derna?A. Addressing mental problems.B. Providing immediate medical care.C. Conducting climate change research.D. Rebuilding roads and access to resources.DBy the end of the century, if not sooner, the world’s oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny microorganisms (微生物) in the ocean called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colorful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean color varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, leading to changes in the ocean’s appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate (调控) the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean’s warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3C, it found that multiple changes to the color of the oceans would occur. The model projectsthat currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions more suitable for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing.” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to live on.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain.Whatever color changes the ocean experiences in the coming future will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “It’ll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happe ning because of climate change,” Dutkiewicz said, “but the change in the color of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals that we really have changed our planet.”27．What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?A. The cause of the changes in ocean color.B. The various patterns at the ocean surface.C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.28．What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. beneficialB. sensitiveC. significantD. unnoticeable 29．What can we learn from the passage?A. Dutkiewicz’s model aims to project phytoplankton changes.B. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate.C. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the ecosystem.D. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.30．What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans.B. To assess the consequences of ocean color changes.C. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton.D. To analyze the organization of the ocean food chain.The Chubby Diaries creator is part of a community of larger-bodied travelers who are showing the world that they can do anything. Following them helps because you can be like, “Oh, this place works with larger bodies.” 31 .Second plane seats and belt extendersSouthwest is one of the few airlines to offer plus-size passengers a free second seat. To ensure the extra space, Southwest recommends booking both seats beforehand, then making a request to get your money back. 32 Southwest states: “The armrest is t he definitive gauge (测量仪) for a customer of size. If you’re unable to lower both armrests, you need a second seat.” Even if your frame fits between the lowered arms, you may still need a seat-belt extender.33 .Finding size nclusive tripsFor Natalie Robinson, ziplining (压缩) in Costa Rica determined her bucket list. “Literally for the last 10 years, that’s all I talked about,” said the co-owner of Fat Girls Travel. 34 . Her fortunes changed completely on an August trip to Costa Rica, when a friend found an outfitter without weight restrictions. The guide said Robinson could dash through the rainforest as long as she could reach the starting point high in the tree tops.35When researching a trip, ask about weight restrictions as well as the availability of equipment that can accommodate your size. If you have concerns, bring your own equipment. Plus-size travelers emphasize the importance of being self-sufficient. Finding special clothes and equipment can be challenging in unfamiliar destinations.A. Pack your own equipmentB. Find supportive travel groups and tripsC. Their extra efforts are paying off as they discover how to travel comfortably andconfidentlyD. Ziplining provides much convenience for those fat girlsE. Many airlines use the armrests to determine whether a passenger requires more spaceF. Air-lines provide this extra piece of equipment free, and you can request it at the time ofboardingG. But ziplining generally has a weight limit, so she hadn’t been able to do itYou might say I found marathoning, step by step. Or perhaps it found me. I was 36 an athlete growing up. In fact, I have a hard time 37 that term to myself even today.It started when I joined a group of women in my neighborhood for a daily three-mile walk. At first it was 38 . But soon, my body adjusted and I wanted 39 . Before long, I was running 5 miles. Then I set a goal to run a half marathon. And I did complete the Covered Bridges Half Marathon. I thought, “Now what?” I started to 40 a marathon.It so happened that I 41 a meeting one night and listened to the speaker and coach, Rick Muhr, and was so 42 by his words. I told him that I had signed up for the Ocean State Marathon, just a week away, and that I really didn’t believe I could 43 . Rick locked eyes with me and said, “Trish, you’ve done enough training. You’ll finish!”I never had someone 44 me like that, let alone a real, live coach. He gave me the45 I needed. I set out to run my 46 marathon and completed it in 4:25:00. Little did I know that this would be the beginning of nearly a decade of marathon and distance running. Running a marathon isn’t for everybody. But it is for anybody, anybody who wants to47 the unreachable and to take that 48 into the rest of their life.

14-15学年新课标高一上学期期中测试ⅠClass: Name: Marks: 满分（120）第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AA poor boy was selling goods from one door to another to pay for his studies. One day he found that he had almost no money, and he was hungry. So he decided to ask for a meal.But when a woman opened the door, he only dared to ask for a glass of water. To his surprise, she gave him a large glass of milk. He drank it and then asked how much he should pay her. She said, “You don‟t have to pay me anything. Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness” He was deeply moved and was determined to help those in need. The boy‟s name was Howard Kelly.Many years had passed. One day that woman became seriously ill. The local doctors could not help her. So they sent her to a big city where her rare (罕见的) disease would be studied by specialists (专家). Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for advice. When he entered her room in the hospital, he immediately recognized the woman. Howard Kelly was determined to do his best to help her.The struggle was long, but together they succeeded in the end. After some time the woman received a bill for her treatment. She was worried that the amount would be so large that it would take the rest of her life to pay for it. However, when she looked at the bill, she found words on the side of the bill. They were, “Paid in full witha glass of milk.”1. The woman came to a big city because .A. she was ill and no local doctors could help herB. she was invited by a group of specialists to a studyC. she wanted to visit the poor boy whom she had helpedD. her rare disease could only be dealt with by Dr. Howard Kelly2. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to .A. the rest of her lifeB. a glass of milkC. her illnessD. the bill for her treatment3. What can we know about Howard Kelly according to the passage?A. He earned a lot of money.B. He was an experienced doctor.C. He opened his own hospital in the city.D. He became the best friend of the woman.BWhat if you had only three minutes to grab whatever you could take from your home and the rest would be lost forever? What would you take?As the disasters in Japan changed from the earthquakes and tsunamis (海啸) to nuclear radiation (核辐射),many people that have been forced to leave their homes are facing the fact that they may not be able to return for a long time.With this in mind, let‟s discuss the value of a Bug Out Bag. This bag is a collection of goods t hat you would need to survive (生存) if you have to escape from your home with no shelter, food or water during the unexpected situations.A good B.O.B. should include things that are needed for life:● A sleeping bag, or at least a blanket.● Drinking wate r.● High-calorie, no-cook foods like protein bars, peanut butter, etc.● First-aid supplies.● Fire-starting methods, and a small pot to boil water or cook.● A few basic tools like a knife, some rope, etc.● Flashlight with extra batteries.● Cash.● A d igital backup (备份) of all your important documents and family treasures.You could keep a B.O.B. by the front door, or even have several bags at home, at the office and in your car. This might seem like more than needed to some of you, but just imagine what a difference this kind of preparation would have made to the people of Japan. Then think of the difference a B.O.B. will make if those disasters happen to you.4. The author asks the questions in the first paragraph to .A. test the readers‟ common s enseB. show the importance of a B.O.BC. attract the readers‟ interestD. encourage the readers to ask questions5. What is the main purpose of preparing a B.O.B?A. To find out the causes of disasters.B. To help people protect their treasures.C. To prevent disasters from happening.D. To help people survive unexpected disasters.6. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. aB.O.B. should be as light as possibleB. we can prepare more than one B.O.BC. a B.O.B. is only necessary for the JapaneseD. a B.O.B. should contain all the valuable things7. Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?A. What aB.O.B. isB. How to escape from disastersC. Preparations for outdoor lifeD. Dangerous disasters on the earthCFor one week, books will be everywhere in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. That‟s because from May 3 to 10, the city will become a “Reading Town”. It‟s a project to grow a society in which everyone has an equal chance to become a lifelong reader.During the special reading week, the 35,000 people there will have reading made into every part of their lives through several amazing events, accor ding to the Reading Town website. For example, the town‟s popular Crescent Park will set up a number of reading corners with chairs, blankets and of course books and magazines. People are encouraged to drop by the park and get a book.When someone orders a pizza that week, they‟ll get a poem along with their pepperoni pie. All of the babies born at the Moose Jaw Union Hospital during the city‟s reading week will be given a gift bag with books sent by Canadian publishers.There will be a “Caught Reading” con test on Twitter. People can take a photo of someone who is reading and post it on Twitter for a chance to win prizes.On the town‟s Main Street, a short story by Margaret Atwood will be posted page by page in shop windows so people walking along can read Death by Landscape.Even the town-criers (公告传报员) will be getting in on the act. During the reading week, instead of crying out the latest news, they will read popular poems. Moose Jaw was selected for the program because it has an interesting books, music and arts scene (现场), according to the Reading Town website.8. The writer explains the special reading week by .A. telling several storiesB. doing some researchC. answering some questionsD. giving examples9. Who will probably be given prizes according to the passage?A. Parents who are reading with their children.B. People who show pictures about reading online.C.

The reading week is held in Moose Jaw in order to .A. provide people with free booksB. introduce people to lots of latest booksC. help people get into the habit of readingD. make Moose Jaw a well-known reading cityDExperts say with just a little bit of planning and creativity (创造力), parents can make their children eat healthy foods, and their children will develop healthy eating habits.A trip to the grocery store with 15-year-old Zarea Adams is an education on healthy eating. She learned her healthy ways at Children‟s Healthcare of Atlanta‟s Camp Strong 4 Life. She first attended the camp as an overweight 12-year-old.“By going to the camp, they teach you new habits and show you how much sugar or how much fat is in something. It changes the way you think,” Adams said.Change isn‟t always easy. For parents who want to change their kids‟ eating habits, Professor Josh Spitalnik said, “Don‟t be afraid to fail. The best way to make changes is to make small steps in which you make mistakes and learn lessons.”One of those lessons could be patience. Dietitian (营养学家) Trisha Hardy stressed, “It takes 10 to 20 times for kids to like a new food. So one of the things is: don‟t give up.”Experts said a healthy plate is one that is half fruits and vegetables. Parents should also watch what their children drink. Most pa rents know soda water is full of sugar, but don‟t realize sports drinks and fruit juices are as well. It‟s best to drink water.“At the camp, they teach you how to make flavored water. And that‟s by using fresh fruit and adding it to your water. I like st rawberries, watermelon and pineapple,” Adams said.Adams is proof that exercise and healthy eating lead to a strong future for a child. “I actually feel healthier and more confident about myself,” said Adams.12. The passage mainly talks about .A. healthy eating for kidsB. how to form good eating habitsC. the importance of good habitsD. the Camp Strong 4 Life13. According to the passage, we can know that Adams .A. succeeded in losing weight in the campB. started to change her living habit on purposeC. had developed her love for fruits and vegetablesD. refused to take in any sugar and fat after going to the camp14. What should parents do to change their kids‟ eating habits?① Try to be as patient as possible.② Be creative and good at making plans.③ Send their kids to the Camp Strong 4 Life.④Keep a watch on their kids‟ food and drink.⑤ Avoid providing their kids with too much food high in sugar.A. ①④⑤B. ①②④C. ①②④⑤D. ②③④⑤15. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.A. it is hard for all parents to change their kids‟ eating habitsB. all of the grocery stores should tell parents what to buy for their kidsC. it may take a long time for some parents to change their kids‟ eating habitsD. kids should be provided with their favorite food and drink to keep healthy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。

14-15学年新课标高一上学期期中测试ⅡClass: Name: Marks: 满分（120）第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AThere is an old Chinese tale about a woman whose only son died. In her grief (悲痛), she went to the holy man (圣人) and asked, “What magical things do you have to bring my son back to life?”Instead of sending her away or saying a few words to comfort her, the holy man said to her, “Bring me a mustard (芥菜) seed from a home that has never known sorrow. We will use it to drive the sorrow out of your life.” The woman went off at once in search of that magical seed.She first came to a beautiful castle, knocked at the door, and said, “I am looking for a home that has never known sorrow. Is this such a place? It is very important to me.”They told her, “You’ve certainly come to the wrong place.” And then they began to describe all the bad things that had recently happened to them.The woman said to herself, “Who is better able to help these unfortunate people than I?” So she stayed to comfort them, and then went on in search of a home that had never known sorrow. But wherever she turned, in hotels or in other places, she found one tale after another of sadness and misfortune.The woman became so busy helping others to deal with their sorrows that she finally let go of her own. She would later come to understand that it was the search for the magical mustard seed that drove away her suffering.1. Leaving the holy man, the woman .A. was full of hopeB. was filled with sadnessC. was determined to try againD. became discouraged2. The “magical seed” refers to “”.A. a cure for sorrowB. being open to othersC. showing respect to othersD. a home that has never known sorrow3. We can learn from the passage that .A. the holy man was playing a trick on the womanB. the woman didn’t go to the right place for the seedC. a mustard seed would bring the woman’s son back to lifeD. the woman was curing herself of sorrow while looking for the seed4. What does the author want to tell us by writing this passage?A. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.B. Time passed cannot be called back again.C. You can’t feel happy unless comparing with others.D. You can’t expect to know the result until you have tried.B5. Whom would the magazine Zootles most probably attract?A. Young kids who like simple rhymes.B. Young kids who are fond of animals.C. Children who love interesting stories.D. Teenagers who want to gain basic skills.6. What do we know about the magazine Thomas & Friends?A. It mainly tells young kids about friendship.B. It cannot help children who want activities.C. It tells stories that happen in a magical world.D. It publishes stories written by Thomas and his friends.7. If a parent wants his/her kids to know different cultures, he/she should buy .A. ZoobiesB. BabybugC. Highlights High FiveD. National Geographic Little Kids8. We can infer that the activities, puzzles and non-fiction given in Highlights High Five are aimed at helping kids .a. know how to reasonb. solve problems betterc. find their favorite animalsd. express themselves clearlye. recognize colors, shapes and sizesA. abdB. bcdC. abcD. cdeCReading is important, but getting kids to enjoy reading can be quite difficult. There are two steps you can take to help kids to enjoy reading. Firstly you need to find something they actually want to read. Then, you need to get them to read school books, but this is not the place to start.So how do you choose something for your kids to read? You have to find out what your kids enjoy. It doesn’t matter what you buy, so long as your kids will find it interesting. A book given as a reward (奖励) will often be more enjoyed by kids. If your kids have just done well at something, this is a good time to give them a new book.The second thing you need to consider is where your kids are going to read. I strongly suggest creating a “reading space” in their room and also a time for them to read on their own, ideally just before bed time.There is another way to really speed up your kids’ reading. It is to get them writing. When you set up their “reading space”, be sure to give them a diary and a pen. Just by writing a few sentences each day they will improve their skills.So to successfully get your kids to enjoy reading you need to create them a space in which they read, give them something fun to read, and improve their skills through writing. Before you know it, their abilities will have moved forward and you will be amazed at their progress. Of course, remember all the time to reward good reading with more books.9. The author wrote this passage to .A. show us how to speed up our readingB. tell us the benefits of reading for kidsC. give us some tips on how to get kids to enjoy readingD. give us examples of how to choose proper books for kids10. Whom is this passage intended for?A. Teachers.B. Kids.C. Parents.D. Workers.11. Which of the following methods will most probably get kids to value their books?A. Giving them books as a reward.B. Reading books together with them.C. Choosing books they like.D. Giving them a reading space.DResearchers found that a “name pronunciation effect” played an important role in how people were perceived (感知) by others. They concluded that the easier a person’s name was to say, the better their successwas in the workplace and the quicker career advancement (提升) they enjoyed. Their study also found that a simple name improved people’s ability to make new fr iends.Dr. Simon Laham, who led the study, said people with simple names were generally judged more positively (积极地). “The effect is not because of the length of a name or how foreign-sounding or unusual it is, but rather how easy it is to pronounce,” he said.In their study the team studied the way names can influence a person’s impressions and decision making. They looked at lots of names of 500 university student volunteers from British, Asian, and European backgrounds and a field of 500 lawyers in America. The team found that people with more pronounceable names were more likely to achieve success. They found that American lawyers with easier sounding names got career advancement faster within their law firms. Names including Sherman, Jenkins, Benson, and Angus ranked among the easiest to pronounce, while Farquharson and Loughnane and European names such as Leszczynska were found to be difficult to pronounce. They concluded that a simple name was the key to success.Dr. Laham said the results could have important implications (意义) for how managers dealt with bias (偏见). “It’s important to treat the biases that shape our choices and judgments about others,” he said. “It may help remove bias, leading to fairer, more objective treatment of others.”12. What factor of a name plays the key role in deciding its effect?A. The length of the name.B. The pronunciation of the name.C. The meaning of the name.D. Whether the name is unusual or not.13. The underlined part “pronounceable names” in Para. 3 refers to names that .A. can be spelled easilyB. can’t be pronounced easilyC. can be pronounced without difficultyD. sound like foreign names14. Which of the following would Dr. Laham most probably agree with?A. People should use simple names to avoid biases.B. Foreign names are considered to be hard to pronounce.C. The name effect can be found only in English-speaking countries.D. The study can help people treat those with hard-to-say names more fairly.15. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Having an easy-to-say name will help you get quicker career advancement.B. People with hard-to-say names should struggle for fairer treatment.C. People with hard-to-say names should avoid unfair treatment from others.D. The importance of changing hard-to-say names to easy-to-say ones.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。

We all 21 times when we’re not the most popular person to be around. Perhaps we’v e done something 22 or we’re in a bad mood. Good friends are loyal and 23 you for who you are during the good and bad 24 .Good friends are 25 honest. Some people would like to stay with people who will tell them what they want to 26 . Good friends will tell you what you need to hear, 27 you don’t want to hear it.Along with good friends who are present, loyal, and 28 , most people want friends who are trustworthy (可信赖的). If you can’t 29 a person, it’s hard to consider him as a good friend. Mutual (相互的) trust between friends is a building block of a solid 30 that can last a lifetime.11.

At the age of ten, she moved with her family to Webster County, Nebraska, and lived on a farm there for two years before moving into th e town of Red Cloud. Many of Cather’s characters and Red Cloud area scenes can be recognizedin her writings. Cather graduated from the University of Nebraska in 1895.She worked for Home Monthly and The Daily Leader in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and later taught English and Latin at Allegheny, Pennsylvania. She moved to New York and served as a managing editor of McClure’s Magazine from 1906 to 1912.

Other well-known Cather’s novels include My Antonia, O Pioneers! , Death Comes for the Archbishop, and The Professor’s House.Cather died on April 24, 1947 in New York.

Why would you feel so? Because it is a town built underground.The town is located in Australian outback about 846 km north of Adelaide. It was founded in 1915, following the discovery of opals (蛋白石). People from across the country and the world rushed to mine (开采) the precious stone. They realized that while working under the ground was easy, living above it was difficult because of the extreme temperature. They chose to adapt to (适应) it. In this case, it meant living underground, by turning old mines into homes.As years go by, the homes become bigger. There are now also several hotels and inns for the tourists who come here to see this unusual town. And while hotels and inns may be located underground, they are in no way less comfortable than houses that lie above. Not only do the indoor walls take full advantage of the beautiful red rock hues (色彩), but they also contain all modern equipment like walk-in closets, modern kitchens and televisions. And if that is not enough, the town also has gift shops selling opal jewelry, a couple of museumsand even a church. For those who need some physical activities, the town offers a golf course.Besides being the opal capital of the world and a popular tourist destination (目的地), Coober Pedy is also a favorite among filmmakers and it has been featured in movies such as Pitch Black, Red Planet and Opal Dream. The second season of the CBS television show The Amazing Race was also filmed in the town.35. According to Paragraph 1, walking into Coober Pedy, you would probably feel .A. peacefulB. relaxedC. excitedD. scared36. What can we learn about the town of Coober Pedy?A. It is extremely hot there.B. It has existed over 100 years.C. It was built by opal miners.D. It was built by local people.37. What does the author want to tell us in Paragraph 3?A.

The houses in the town are quite different from others.38. What would be the best title for the passage?A. How to get to Coober PedyB. Why people in Coober Pedy live undergroundC. Coober Pedy —Australia’s underground townD. To find the opals in Coober PedyCEven though e-commerce (电子商务) has been around for a long time only 5% of all goods are bought online. But e-commerce is still growing. It is becoming a part of the market. Not just books, CDs and holiday trips are bought online, but all sorts of other products and services that were hardly possible in the past. Today, more and more online shops get their customers from social networks like Facebook and mobile phones.In the past going shopping was fun, something that you did with your friends or relatives. It was a social event. Today, Facebook and other social media networks are the driving force behind online shopping. Companies aim at potential(潜在的) customers and online communities. If they advertise their brands or products in the right way people will talk about them, and news spreads throughout the online world much faster than in the real world.Over 75% of all customers buy products after they have read reviews about them on the Internet. They ask their friends about quality and design of certain products. An American-based cosmetics (化妆品) company, for example, has asked female customers to exchange beauty tips on the Internet.Companies also encourage online shoppers to play games that relate to their products. A British-based firm lets users play a game with game money in which they can buy virtual (虚拟的) versions of products and have their friends comment on them.The new generation smartphone is likely to have an even greater impact on online shopping. While in a real store, customers often get reviews and price comparisons directly on their mobile. In many cases, when they see something they want to buy they leave the shop and buy online or go to a nearby place where they get it for a lower price. There are even apps(应用程序) which show you if there is a certain product on salewithin a short distance of your location.39. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A.

People who dislike going shopping.42. The new smartphone can help customers .A. do what they want toB. communicate with others more easilyC. win more money by playing gamesD. buy cheaper productsDTaking a mountain biking vacation is an excellent way to relax and to explore America. There are several companies that offer mountain biking tours that go through scenic routes(风景优美的路径), and they often arrange any accommodations(住宿) for travelers as well. For lots of people, these types of vacations offer the perfect way to relax and to do some exercise together.Each and every region(地区) in the United States has some truly awesome mountain biking trails(小路). It is not just the major mountain ranges(山脉) that offer these trails, as any hilly and scenic trail can provide riders with the adventure they seek. Some of the best areas for mountain bike ride in the United States are the Pacific Northwest, Southwest, and Southeast states such as Louisiana and North Carolina. Even though the entire American West area is great for a mountain biking vacation, the Southwest area is rapidly becoming a popular area for such a sport as well. In the Southwest, some of the best trails include Pinery Canyon Road in Arizona, South Boundary Trail in New Mexico, and Flume Trail in Nevada.Each one of these trails is over 20 miles in length, with Pinery Canyon Road being the longest, at over 50 miles! Keep in mind though, just because you go to a trail it doesn’t mean you have to ride the entire length. The Pacific Northwest is also a great place for a mountain biking vacation. The three best trails in the entire region are Surveyor’s Ridge Trail in Oregon, Mount Tamalpais Trail in California, and the Methow Trial System in Washington.A mountain biking vacation is perfect for athletic people who want to explore regions at their own pace. These trips are much less expensive than other trips, yet they can easily be the adventure of a lifetime.43. What does the underlined word “awesome” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Very dangerous.B.

This passage is written mainly to ______.A. tell us the mountain biking sport is very popularB. tell us the mountain biking sport is good for visitorsC. tell us where these good mountain biking trails areD. ask more people to take part in the mountain biking sportEIt has been known that high-powered careers can prevent or delay (延迟) women’s plans to have children. But a new study shows the challenges are especially big for women of Generation X. About 43% of skilled Gen-X white-collar women, aged 33 to 46 years old, haven’t yet had children based on a study of 2,952 college-educated white-collar workers.The study suggests work pressure, strong career ambitions (目标), heavy debt loads and the sluggish (萧条的) economy, are among the reasons.Of course, women in general are starting families later than they did in the past, using the extra years to further their education or build a career, the Census Bureau says. The average (平均的) age of U.S. women giving birth for the first time rose from 25 years old to 40 years old between 1970 and 2006, according to the National Center for Health Statistics. More recently, the sluggish job market has also played a role in people’s delaying plans to start a family, as we have posted before.The childbearing (生育) patterns of these white-collar workers differ from those of the population as a whole. Only 18.8% to 29.7% of women aged 30 to 44 years old haven’t yet had children, based on the most recent Census Bureau data from 2010. That suggests workplace pressure may indeed be a reason. Also, Gen-Xers, born between 1965 and 1978, shouldered a heavier burden of student loans after college, compared with old generations. These factors may have made starting a family and providing such basics as housing and education seem more difficult.As a result of the pressure, however, Gen-Xers are also more resilient(适应力强的), researchers say. They set big goals for themselves. 75% of Gen-X women and 72% of Gen-X men describe themselves as ambitious. But many are not satisfied with their career. Nearly half of Gen-Xers feel stalled (停滞的) in their careers, the study says. Also, 43% say their ability to repay student loans plays an important role in their career choices.47. According to the passage, Generation X women refers to those who .A. once received high educationB. refuse to have childrenC. were born between 1965 and 1978D. shoulder great pressure from work48. Some Gen-X white-collar women haven’t yet had children for the following reasons EXCEPT .A. work pressureB. strong career ambitionsC. heavy student or debt loadsD. no belief in the happy marriage49. The underlined word “That” in Para. 4 probably refers to .A. the recent Census Bureau data from 2010B. about one third of women aged 30 to 44 years oldC. different childbearing patterns of white-collar workersD. some middle-aged white-collar women having no children50. From the passage, we can learn that .A. Gen-Xers shoulder a heavier burden than old generationsB. Gen-Xers are more resilient and successful in their careersC. some Gen-X white-collar women have to work for a long timeD. women generally start education later than they did in the past第三部分书面表达（共两节，满分50分）第一节完成句子（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）阅读下列各小题，根据汉语提示，用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。

It is necessary to give him a blood transfusion (输血) because he has lost a great deal of blood in the accident. However, special care must be taken in selecting new blood for him. If the blood is too different from his own, the transfusion could kill him.There are four basic types of blood: A, B, AB and O. A single test can tell us a person’s blood type. Everybody is born with one of these four types of blood. Blood type, like hair color and height, is inherited (继承) from parents. Because of the substances（物质）contained in each type, the four groups must be transfused carefully. Basically, A and B cannot be mixed. A and B cannot receive AB, but AB may receive A or B. O can give to any other group; so it is often called the universal donor. For the opposite reason, AB is sometimes called the universal recipient (领受者). However, because there can be so many reactions in transfusions, patients usually receive only salt or plasma (血浆) until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of the hospital. In this way, it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to the transfusion.There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality. Among the Europeans, about 42 percent have type A while 45 percent have type O. The rarest is type AB. Other races have different percentage. For example, some American Indian groups have nearly 100 percent type O.36. Which of the following diagrams shows the correct relationship in blood transfusions?(→=giving blood to)37. Usually, a person who has been injured and lost too much blood should be given ablood transfusion _____.A. after he has a good restB. after he receives salt or plasmaC. right after the accident happensD. before there are so many reactions38. If the blood is too different from the injured, the transfusion _____.A. can help him greatlyB. could save himC. could kill himD. can injure him39. The writer suggests that the third most common blood type among the Europeans is _____.A. BB. AC. ABD. O40. The passage mainly tells us that _____.A. there is only one type of blood in a person’s bodyB. a person’s blood type is decided by hair and heightC. a person’s blood type can be changed into anotherD. there are four basic types of blood in a person’s bodyBDear editor（编辑）,I have some problems now. My new Chemistry teacher is a strange man who doesn’t believe that girls can do well in Chemistry. He never asks a girl to answer a question in class, nor does he ever answer girls’ questions after class. My Chemistry studies are not going as well as before. Is there any way for me to prove that girls can also do well in Chemistry without his help?CathyDear Cathy,It seems that you are angry with your new Chemistry teacher. The one way for you to prove that girls also can do well in Chemistry is to work extra hard and be the best in your class. Use your anger to drive you on to even better. But it might also be worth asking him if you could have a meeting with him to discuss what you think about him. From the meeting you should be able to know exactly how he feels towards you. Say that you feel left out in class and let him know how much you like Chemistry. Good luck!Editor41. What problem does Cathy have?A. She has got some difficulty in her studies.B.

This means that cities with large populations have the biggest problem of dirty air. Air pollution is caused by many different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes from cars. Statistics show that 93 percent of all auto trips are within cities. Another major source of dirty air is the burning of coal and oil for energy. This energy is needed to make electricity. Of course，much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.On the average, we throw away more trash and garbage than the year before. The burning of garbage contributes to air pollution. Many major industries are also responsible for the dirty air in the around cities. The fumes of iron，steel，chemical，and petroleum production add particles to the air.The effects of air pollution range from mild headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy traffic may cause headaches or loss of clear vision. Wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants and cause metal to corrode. In some of the larger cities，these fumes endanger the life of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.46. The key point of the passage is that _________.A. the cause of air pollution is peopleB. the causes and the effects of air pollution are both found in citiesC. the effects of air pollution range from headaches to deathD. air pollution is caused by dirty air47. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To persuade people to stop polluting the airB. To tell the causes of air pollutionC. To tell why cities are bad places to liveD. To describe why cities are bad places to live48. Why is air pollution more grave in the city than in the country?A. Because there larger populations in citiesB. Because the air in the city is dirtyC. Because there are more cars in the cityD. Because there are much more gas fumes from cars and burning of coal and oil for energy in the city than in the country.49. The fumes from coal and oil may cause metal_________.A. to turn blackB. to become rustyC. to corrodeD. to twist50. In larger cities，the fumes from coal and oil may contribute to_________.A. heart diseaseB. lung diseasesC. loss of clear visionD. serious headache**DGreat changes have been made in family life because of science and industry. In the past, when more Americans lived on farms, the typical(典型)family had many children. In a farm family, parents and their children often lived with grandparents. Often, too, uncles and aunts lived nearby. But when industry becomes more important than agriculture in American life, families become smaller because industry requires workers who are ready and able to move off the land and to move again whenever necessary. And large families cannot be moved from place to place as easily as smaller families can. So, at present people tend to have smaller families.In the future, because of industrialization, a typical family will be required to move even more often than now, so families will be even smaller. The typical families may remain childless and consist only of a man and a woman. A small number of families may take raising children as their chief work. At the same time they may also raise other people’s children, leaving those families free to move job to job.51. The main topic discussed in the passage is _______.A. the development of science and industry in AmericaB. the influence (影响) of science and industry on America families.C. the harmful effect of industrializationD. the social problems resulting from (因……而引起) the highly developed science and industries in America52. _______ are described in the passage.A. Families of the pastB. Families of the present and of the futureC. Families of the past and of the futureD. Families of the past, the present and the future53. According to the writer, one of the reasons that families are getting smaller in American is that _____.A. children tend to leave their parents and grandparents when they grow upB. people stop caring for having childrenC. the need for workers who are able to move any time has been increasingD. both old and young people like to live by themselves54. ________ will be in charge of raising children in the future.A. Most familiesB. All familiesC. Social workersD. A small number of families55. From the passage, we can conclude(概括) that ________.A. science and industry have caused thousands of families to separateB. children do not like to live with their parents or grandparentsC. large families can hardly exist in modern societyD. Americans are very careful in choosing their jobs第三部分：书面表达（25分）许多欧洲国家将9月22日定为“无车日”。
