He had become financially successful by growing sugarcane at Las Manacas farm in Biran, Oriente Province. Aged six, Castro was sent to live with his teacher in Santiago be Cuba, before being baptized(洗礼)into the Roman Catholic Church at the age of eight. Being baptized enabled Castro to attend the la Salle boarding school in Santiago, where he regularly misbehaved, so he was sent to the privately funded Dolores School in Santiago. In 1945 he transferred to a more famous school, De Belen in Havana. Although Castro took an interest in history, geography and debating at Belen, he did not excel academically, instead devoting much of his time to playing sport.In 1945, Castro began studying law at the University of Havana, where he became involved in student activism, and the violent gangsterism culture within the university. Passionate about anti-imperialism and opposing U.S. interference in the Caribbean, he unsuccessfully campaigned for the presidency of the Federation of University Students on a platform of “honesty, decency and justice”. Castro became critical of the corruption and violence of President Ramon Grau’s government, delivering a public speech on the subject in November 1946 that received coverage on the front page of several newspapers.In 1947, Castro joined the Party of the Cuban People, founded by Eduardo Chibas. Chibas advocated social justice, honest government, and political freedom, while hisparty exposed corruption and demanded reform. Though Chibas lost the election, Castro remained devoted to working on his behalf. Social situation becoming worse, Castor soon received a death threat urging him to leave the university; refusing, he began carrying a gun and surrounding himself with armed friends.25.

With a group of famous judges and a wide range of talents, it is clear that the competitive atmosphere of American Idol will remain unrivaled by any other show. After all, its success has been“unmatched in broadcasting history.”American Idol came from the British series Pop Idol. Through an application, contestants came into the competition and thereafter, were chosen to audition(试音)for the show. Each candidate would have to perform a piece to the judges, and participate in a strict selection process. Not only would contestants have to sing in groups, they were sometimes tasked to perform pieces without musical instruments. At the end of this stage, only 24 o 36 artists were chosen to enter the semi-final stage. Soon, the fate of the contestants would be decided by the public. During the candidate’s live performance, a free telephone number was displayed on the screen for viewers to dial, to cast their vote. At the end of the night, only 13 lucky singers would be left in the competition; by the finals, only 8 contestants would remain. Finally, a runner-up(亚军)and a winner were announced every season. Though only the winner would receive a million dollar reward and a significant record deal, other contestants would have had a chance to be known by the public. As the famous producer Simon Cowell once said, “The point of the show is not to be mean to loser, but to find a winner.”As the final season of the program begins, past winners will return to the stage to say goodbye and a new winner will be announced. With amazing performances and an excellent cast of singers, the show’s conclusion will leave audiences nostalgic(怀旧的), but more satisfied than ever.29. Those who enter American Idol will _______.A. share the one million dollar reward togetherB. be asked to perform in pairs in the semi-finalsC. experience at least three rounds of performancesD. have the chance to become famous even if they fail30.

The author thinks the conclusion of American Idol will _________.A. change its historyB. be worth watchingC. not be the last seasonD. pick her favorite singer32. In which section of the newspaper may you probably find the passage?A. AdvertisementB. FinanceC. EntertainmentD. BusinessDA new study suggests that washing dishes by hand is healthier than using a dishwasher.Nobody likes doing the dishes, but it turns out that doing this task might pay off in an unexpected way. According to a new study publishe in the Journal of Pediatrics, washing dishes by hand instead of using a dishwasher might prevent the development of allergies(过敏).Researchers in Sweden surveyed the parents of 1,189 children aged 7 and 8. They discovered that children whose families hand-washed the dishes instead of using a machine were less likely to have allergies.Earlier research has shown that dishes washed by machine are cleaner than those washed by hand. So why would kids who eat off of slightly dirtier plates be better off when it comes to preventing allergies? One explanation is based on a theory known as the “hygiene hypothesis,” which says the reason kids develop allergies is that their surroundings are actually too clean. Your immune system keeps you healthy by fighting germs(细菌)like bacteria and viruses. But when you have allergies, it overreacts and tries to fight ordinary things like pollen(花粉)or certain foods. Being exposed to germs, especially early in life is good training for the immune system, says the lead author of the study, Dr. Bill Hesselmar of Queen Silvia Hospital in Sweden. “You stimulate the immune system in various ways and it becomes tolerant.” This study shows that while using the dishwasher might be easier, the old-fashioned method of cleaning up could be better for your health.33. What is the benefit of washing dishes by hand?A. It can improve our immune systemB. It is easier than washing by machineC. It costs less time than washing by machineD. It might reduce the chance of developing allergies34. What can we learn from paragraph 4?A. Our health depends much on our immune systemB. Children in clean environment must have allergiesC. Our immune system can only fight bacteria and virusesD. Hand-washed dishes are as clean as those washed by machine35. What do we know about germs from the passage?A. Without germs, people won’t get sickB. There are no germs in clean environmentC. Exposure to germs can improve our immune systemD. Germs like bacteria and viruses do harm to our health第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。

AOne day, I received a call from a colleague. He was about to give a student a zero for his answer to a physical problem, while the student claimed a perfect score.I was elected as their arbiter (仲裁人). I read the examination problem: “Show how it is possible to determine the height of a tall building with the aid of a barometer (气压计).” The student had answered, “Take t he barometer to the top of the building, attach a long rope to it, lower it to the street, and then bring it up, measuring the length of the rope. The length of it is the height of the building.”The student had really answered the question completely, but the answer didn’t confirm his competence in physics. I suggested the student try again. I gave him six minutes to answer the question, warning that the answer should show some knowledge of physics. Five minutes later, he said he had many answers and dashed off one, which read “Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean over the edge of the roof. Drop the barometer, timing its fall with a stopwatch. Then, use the physical formula (公式) to calculate the height of the building.”At this point, my colleague had to accept it, and then the student made almost full marks. I couldn’t help asking the student what the other answers were. He listed many others and then added, “Probably the best is to take the barometer to the administrator and said to him, ‘Sir, here is a fine barometer. If you tell me the height of the building, 1 will give it to you.”‘Then, I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question. He admitted that he did, but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think.The name of the student was Bohr who later was famous all over the world. He won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922.1. The student got a zero at the beginning because .A. the teache r wasn’t satisfied with him.B. his answer wasn’t complete or correctC. his answer didn’t show his knowledge of physicsD. the teacher didn’t fully understand his answer2. We know from the passage that .A. the administrator told Bohr the heightB. the student knew the expected answerC. the author preferred Bohr’s last answerD. the teacher was a very stubborn person3. We can learn from the passage that .A. instructors can teach students how to thinkB. arbiters can help students to get high scoresC. teachers should make students use physical formulasD. students should be given more freedom in thinking4. What was Bohr’s attitude toward his schooling?A. CriticalB. OptimisticC. ObjectiveD. Ambiguous【答案】1. C 2. B 3. D 4. A【解析】本文主要讲了Bohr在一次物理测验中，虽然答案也对，但是因为没有涉及物理学的知识，起初被给予零分，他其实在一开始的时候就知道老师所期盼的答案。

河南省林州市2017-2018学年高一英语12月调考试题（普通班）第I卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn't fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model, I realized this a day late, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid, The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night, Fortunately, I didn't get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电)noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉)shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.21. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A. He got an older model than he had expected.B. He couldn't return it when it was broken.C. He could have bought it at a lower price.D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.22. How did the author finally get his TV set working again?A. By shaking and hitting it.B. By turning it on and off.C. By switching channels.D. By having it repaired.23. How does the author sound when telling the story?A. CuriousB. AnxiousC. CautiousD. HumorousBIt's a warm summer afternoon. You're cooking up the catch of the day over a campfire.Suddenly, a few raindrops fall on your arms, and before you know it, thesky is opened up. Then you hear what sounds like thunder in the distance.What should you do? Your tent is close by and would offer shelter(遮蔽)from the pouring rain. There's a campsite picnic shelter a few minutesdown the path. And then you remember that your car is parked down theroad. What's your safest choice to make sure you and your families are safe?It's a common question for many hikers and campers, especially when they are camping during summer months. Heading to your car is almost always the safest choice. Your tent and a picnic shelter will keep you dry, but they offer little or no protection against lightening. Your car, on the other hand, will keep you dry and protect you from lightening strikes. Protecting yourself against possible lightening strikes is very important; lightening kills an average of 62 people in the US each year. If you keep all of the windows and doors closed in your car, you'll be able to return to your campsite safely.Of course, if you're backpacking (背包旅行), not car camping, and you're deep in the woods, your car won't be a good choice. So, what should you do if your car is far away and there's no other safe shelter nearby? First, you'll have to make sure that tree limbs or other objects don't fall on you or your campsite. Then you'll have to get in a safe position to avoid lightening, or flash flood conditions. What else should you do?24．The passage aims to tell us ________.A. what's campingB. how to camp safelyC. car camping is the safest way when campingD. how to survive a storm when camping 25．To avoid lightening in a storm, you'd better ________.A. go into your tent quicklyB. cook up the catch of the day over a campfireC. get into your car and return to your campsiteD. run into a campsite picnic shelter at once26．From the last paragraph we can infer ________.A. when camping learning to protect oneself is very importantB. people should never camp deep in the woodsC. backpacking is not a good choice for campersD. people should not go campingalone27．Which of the following is TRUE?A. Campers like car camping best.B. Young people like backpacking best.C. Lightening is a danger for campers.D. Camping during summer months is the most popular.CAs is known to us, WashingtonUniversity in St. Louis became the first college in the United States to ban (禁止) selling bottled water in 2012. Since then, more than a dozen small colleges and schools have done the same. The ban isn't because the schools don't want students to have easy access to water. Instead, the goal is to encourage students to bring reusable bottles to save money and, more importantly, to save the environment.Many people believe that producing and using bottled water not only wastes money but also harms the environment. They say that bottled water is unnecessary because public water supplies in the U. S. are among the best in the world. These people believe that water fountains and reusable bottles with easy access to filling stations are a better choice.But the makers of bottled water argue that plastic bottles make up a small part of the nation's total waste. They say it's unfair to single out (单独挑出) their product when so many other items are packaged (包装) in plastic containers, and what's more, water is a healthy choice compared to some sodas and juices that are also sold at school.What do you think: Should sales of bottled water be banned from schools? We want to hear your opinion. Write a 200­word response. Send it to tfkasks4you@. Your response may be published in a future issue of Time For Kids. Please include your grade level and contact information for your parent or teacher if you want your response to be published. The deadline (截止时间) for responding is August 31, 2014.28．Some colleges and schools ban selling bottled water in order to ________.A. save waterB. encourage students to bring water from homeC. reduce pollutionD. keep students away from bottled water29．The main disadvantage of bottled water is probably that ________.A. it is too expensiveB. it is not freshC. it's not convenient to carryD. its bottle can't be reused30．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Bottled water is healthier.B. Sodas and juices are of great harm.C. Students think it unfair to ban selling bottled water.D. The makers of bottled water are against banning selling bottled water. 31．The purpose of the passage is to ________.A. ask for students' opinionsB. tell people a piece of newsC. call on students to save the environmentD. wish more schools to ban selling bottled waterDStillseekingadestinationforyourweekendbreak?Therearesomeplaceswhichareprobab lyamerewalkawayfromyourcollege.King' s Art CentreA day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere. This weekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.You could attend a class teaching you how to ‘learn from the masters’ or get more creative with paint — free of charge.The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.The Botanic GardenThe Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for CambridgeUniversity.The multi­branched Torch Aloe here is impressive. The African plant produces red flowers above blue­green leaves, and is not one to miss.Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.The Garden is also a place for wildlife­enthusiasts. Look for grass snakes in the lake. A snake called ‘Hissing Sid’ is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.Byron' s PoolMany stories surround Lord Byron's time as a student of CambridgeUniversity. Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of “mess and drunkenness”. However, it seem s as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough. I'm not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms. He spent a greatdeal of time walking in the village.It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, which is now known as Byron's Pool. A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields. The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea. If you don't trust me, then perhaps you'll take it from Virginia Woolf over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.32．As is mentioned in the passage, there is a small charge for ________.A. attending the masters' classB. working with local artistsC. learning life drawingD. seeing an exhibition33．“Torch Aloe” and “Venus Flytrap” are ________.A. common insectsB. impressive plantsC. rarely-seen snakesD.wildlife-enthusiasts34．We can infer from the passage that Byron seemed ________.A. to fear pet bearsB. to like walkingC. to be a heavy drinkerD. to finish university in 180535．What is the passage mainly about?A. Some places for weekend break.B. A way to become creative in art.C. The colorful life in the countryside.D. Unknown stories of CambridgeUniversity.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。
