Reading Comprehension (30’)AGrowing up in Philadelphia, Lieberman started cooking with his stay-at-home dad when he was seven. His food-loving family had two kitchens, and he quickly learned what was the best way to bake his cakes. Lieberman improved his kitchen skills during a year abroad before college, learning from a cook in Italy and study local specialties in Germany, Spain and France. At Yale, he was known for throwing dinner parties, single-handedly frying and baking while mixing drinks for dozens of friends. Just for fun, he and some friends decided to tape a show named Campus Cuisine about his cooking. Lieberman was a real college student showing his classmate how to do things like making drinks out of dining-hall fruit. That helped the show become very popular among the students. They would stop Lieberman after classes to ask for his advice on cooking. Tapes of the show were passed around, with which his name went beyond the school and finally to the Food Network.Food Network producer Flay hopes the young cook will find a place on the network television. He says Lieberman’s charisma is key. ― Food TV isn’t about food anymore.‖ says Flay, ― It’s about your personality and finding a way to keep people’s eyeballs on your show.‖But Lieberman isn’t putting all his eggs in one basket. After taping the first season of the new show, Lieberman was back in his own small kitchen preparingsandwiches. An airline company was looking for someone to come up with a tasteful, inexpensive and easy-to-make menu to serve on its flight. Lieberman got the job.31. We can learn from the text that Lieberman’s fami ly________.A. have relatives in EuropeB. love cooking at homeC. often hold partiesD. own a restaurant32. The Food Network got to know Lieberman________.A. at one of his partiesB. from his teacherC. through his taped showD. on a television program33. What does the word ― charisma‖ underline d in the text refer to ?A. A natural ability to attract others.B. A way to show one’s achievement.C. Lieberman’s after-class interestD. Lieberman’s fin e cooking skill34. Why did the airline company give Lieberman the job?A. He could prepare meals in a small kitchen.B. He was famous for his shows on Food TV.C. He was good at using eggs to make sandwiches.D. He could cook cheap, delicious and simple meals.35. What can we learn about Lieberman from the text?A. He is clever but lonely.B. He is friendly and active.C. He enjoys traveling around.D. He often changes his menus.BAdvice to ―sleep on it‖ could be well founded, scientists say. After a good night’s sleep a problem that seemed impossible to solve the night before can often appear easier, although no evidence has proved this by now. But researchers at the University of Luebek in Germany have designed an experiment that s hows a good night’s sleep can improve insight(洞察力)and problem-solving. ―If you have some newly acquired memories in your brain, sleep acts on these memories, restructures(重构)them, so that after sleep the insight into a problem which you could not solve bef ore increases,‖ said Dr. Jan Bom, a neuroscientist, at the university. To test the theory, they taught volunteers two simple rules to help them put a string of numbers into a new order. There was also a third, hidden rule, which could help them increase their speed in solving the problem. The researchers divided the volunteers into two groups, half were allowed to sleep after the training while the remainders were forced to stay awake. Bom and his team noticed that the group that had slept after the training were twice as likely to figure out the third rule as the other group. ―Sleep helped,‖ Bom said in a telephone interview. ―The important thing is that you have to have a memory representation in your brain of the problem you want to solve and then you sleep, so it can act on the problem.‖ But Bom admitted that he and his team don’t know howrestructuring of memories occurs or what governs it or in which stage of sleep it works. Pierre Marquette and Pierre Ruby of the University of Liege in Belgium said the experimental evidence supports the suggestions that sleep can promote creative thinking. Although the role of sleep in human creativity will still be a mystery, the research gives people good reason to fully respect their periods of sleep, they added.36. The underlined phrase ―sleep on it‖ in the first line probably means _____.A. to put something aside to be solved until the next dayB. to get as much sleep as possibleC. to go on sleeping without being disturbedD. to sleep till you get up the next morning37. Jan Bom and his team carried out the experiment through _____A. comparisonB. interviewC. surveyD.imagination38. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.A. people should sleep so long as they have timeB. sleep is the only way to solve hard problemsC. people have various periods of sleepD. people know how sleep restructures memories39. What would be the best title for the passage?A. How Sleep WorksB. Sleep Helps Solve ProblemsC. No Evidence, But Well FoundedD. Bom’s Dis covery On Sleep40. Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?A. A science fiction.B. A book review.C. An advertisement.D. A newspaper.CIt’s food scarcity (短缺), not dietary preferences, that motivates birds to migrate thousands of miles back and forth between breeding and non-breeding areas each year, new research shows.―It’s not whether you eat insects, fruit, nectar or candy bars or where you eat them —it matters how reliable that food source is,‖ said study leader W. Alice Boyl e of the University of Arizona.To figure out the pressures that drive some birds to leave home for the season, Boyle examined 379 related species of flycatchers and compared their sizes, food types, habitats, migratory behaviors and whether or not they fed in flocks.To compare the birds, the researchers constructed a ―supertree‖ showing the exact evolutionary (演化的) relationships among different species.A computer analysis then determined whether a particular species was migratory(迁移的) because it ran in the ―family‖ or whether something in the bird’s environment was forcing it to leave each season.Boyle and her colleagues found that food scarcity was the number one issue that predicted a species’ migratory behavior.An alternative strategy that birds use to deal with food scarcity is to forage (四处搜寻) in flocks, because a group is more likely to find a new source of food than a lone individual.―If you are faced with food scarcity, you have two options,‖ Boyle said. ―You can either forage with other birds, or you can migrate.‖41. The passage mainly tells us ________.A. the real reason for birds’ migrationB. food scarcity that birds face todayC. how birds search for foodD. when birds migrate42. The scientists used to believe that birds migrate because ________.A. they want to search for the food they likeB. they can find more food in a different placeC. they can breed their young in a different placeD. the weather turns too cold43. The researchers constructed a ―supertree‖ mainly to ________.A. compare the sizes of different birdsB. make out the relationships between different birdsC. find out what causes birds to leave each seasonD. predict when the birds were migratory44. Which of the following is true?A. All birds fly to non-breeding areas each year.B. There are 379 species of birds migrating.C. Two related species have the same behavior.D. Computers are used in the research work.45. The passage suggests that ________.A. different kinds of birds have different ways to migrateB. different kinds of birds migrate for various reasonsC. some birds can survive without migrating each seasonD. birds’ food sources are becoming rare all over the worldIV.

They looked atmen from traditional families, men with children from a previous relationship, men whose partners had children by a former partner, and men who were not living with their partners.All 7018 participants filled out a questionnaire on depression, and answered questions about their age, education level and employment status. Details about the quality of their relationships with their partners, networks of friends and previous life events were also recorded.About 3.5 per cent of the men and 13 per cent of their partners suffered depression around the time their child was born. While men in step-families or who were not living with their partners were twice as likely to get depressed as those in traditional families, this could be explained by other factors that are more common in non-traditional families, such as poor education and relationship conflicts.Even allowing for all these factors, however, the partners of women who were suffering from prenatal (产前的) depression were significantly more likely to become depressed themselves, the researchers report in an American Journal. Ten per cent of women who were depressed had depressed partners. For the healthy women, the figure was only 2.6 per cent.Previous research suggests that families with two depressed parents may need special attention. A researcher in Atlanta has found that primary schoolchildren with two troubled parents have difficulty relating to theirpeers. "It's extremely important to look at the whole family," she says.46. What can we conclude from paragraphs one and two of this passage?A. Men often beat their children.B. Depressed women often have depressed partners.C. All young children are vulnerable to social problems.D. Women with children often have depressed partners.47. Why did researchers in London and Bristol carry out such and investigation?A. To see what kind of family environment is ideal for children to grow up in.B. To study whether family structure affects depression in men when their child is born.C. To investigate why so many men get depressed when a child is born.D. To see whether it is true that behind every depressed man there is a depressed woman.48. What kind of men were NOT included as objects in the study?A. Men from traditional families.B. Men with children from a previous relationship.C. Men who were not living with their partners.D. Men who have no children.49. What kind of men are least likely to get depressed when their childwas born?A. Men in stepfamilies.B. Men who were not living with their partners.C. Men in traditional families.D. Men in nontraditional families.50. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Ten per cent of women who were depressed had depressed partners.B. 2.6 per cent of healthy women were depressed.C. Special attention should be paid to families in which both thefather and the mother were depressed.D. Primary schoolchildren whose parents were both depressedcouldn't get along well with their peers.BEvery day we lace our talk with measurement words. We ask, “How much?”“How many?” and “How far?” At the store we buy meat by the pound, clothing by the size, and cloth by the yard. All athletic events are played on measured fields or surfaces. Rules are also filled with words of measurement. For example, in football we know that a first down means a gain of at least 10 yards. Words of distance, weight, and size help us understand and visualize what is seen and said.In ancient times, people used parts of the body as units of measurement. The Romans used uncia to name the distance equal to the width of a thumb. The English picked up this word and renamed it an inch. They did not, however, accept the thumb as a unit of measure. They decided instead that an inch should be “three barley corns, round and dry, placed end-to-end lengthwise(纵长).”After this inch was accepted and used, the English then joined 12 inches and called it a foot. As it happened, 12 inches was roughly the length of a man’s foot, so the foot unit was widely used. To measure a room, all you had to do was put one foot in front of the other and count.The inch and foot worked so well that the English introduced a large unit. They put together three lengths of a man’s foot and called it a yard. Again, man had another useful unit---in this case, one he could use to pace off a large field quickly.Then the English made a unit for the women, one especially for measuring cloth. They called this unit a yard too. The distance was from aman’s nose to the tip of his middle finger.Of course, there is a flaw in all this. Not all men are the same size. But no one seems to care.51. This article is mainly concerned with ________.A. Roman measurementB. the development of common units of measurementC. what an inch and a foot are equal toD. understanding measurement52. The Romans decided that________A. thumbs were about an inch wide.B. barley corns were always the same size.C. people are not all the same size.D. a man’s foot measures exactly 12 inches..53. Many units of measurement were developed ________A. to make it easier to figure out common lengths.B. because men were considered more important than women.C. for no particular reason.D. so the English could prove their superiority to the Romans.54. In the first paragraph the author gives ________A. a history of measurement.B. examples of how often we use measures.C. an explanation of football rules.D. a way of figuring out which measures are useful.55. The word “flaw”in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to________A. defect.B. difference.C. change.D. danger.CFive years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict.”he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clothes----khaki pants and a sports shirt---to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “I am working harder than ever.” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.”More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. In the United States, the change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday(but only on Friday. This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”.“What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing,” said business consultant Maisly Jones.Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people don’t want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company,“so it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale(心境,士气). Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative influence on productivity. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,”one person said, “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”56.David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict,”because _____.A.he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtB.he couldn’t stand a clean appearanceC.he wanted his clothes to look neat all the timeD.he didn’t want to spend much money on clothes57.David Smith wears casual clothes now, because_____.A.they make him feel at ease when workingB.he cannot afford to buy expensive clothesC.he looks handsome in casual clothesD.he no longer works for any company58.According to this passage, which of the following statements is FALSE?A.Many employees don’t like a conservative dress code.B.Comfortable clothes make employees more productive.C.A casual clothes code is welcomed by young employees.D.All the employers in the U. S. are for casual office wear. 59.According to this passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Company workers started to dress down about twenty years ago.B.Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 90s.C.“Dress-down Friday” was first given as a favor from employers.D.Many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people. 60.In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT_____.A.saving employees’ moneyB.making employees more attractiveC.improving employees’ motivationD.making employees happierDEvery year thousands of people are arrested and taken to court for shop-lifting. In Britain alone, about HK$3,000,000’s worth of goods are stolen from shops every week. This amounts to something like HK$150 million a year, and repre sents about 4 percent of the shops’ total stock. As a result of this “shrinkage” as the shops call it, the honest public has to pay higher prices.Shop-lifters can be divided into three main categories: the professionals, the deliberate amateur, and the pe ople who just can’t help themselves. The professionals do not pose much of a problem for the store detectives, who, assisted by closed circuit television, two-way mirrors and various other technological devices, can usually cope with them. The professionals tend to go for high value goods in parts of the shops where security measures are tightest. And, in any case, they account for only a small percentage of the total losses due to shop-lifting.The same applies to the deliberate amateur who is, so to speak, a professional in training. Most of them get caught sooner or later, and they are dealt with severely by the courts.The real problem is the person who gives way to a sudden temptation and is in all other respects an honest and law-abiding citizen. Contrary to what one would expect, this kind of shop-lifter is rarely poor. He steals not because he needs the goods and cannot afford to pay for them. He steals because he simply cannot stop himself. And there are countless others who, because of age, sickness or plain absent-mindedness, simply forget to pay for what they take from the shops. When caught, all are liable to prosecution, and the decision whether to send for the police or not is in the hands of the store manager.In order to prevent the quite incredible growth in ship-lifting offences, some stores, in fact, are doing their best to separate the thieves from the confused by prohibiting customers from taking bags into the store. However, what is most worrying about the whole problem is, perhaps, that it is yet another instance of the innocent majority being penalized(宣告有罪)and inconvenienced because of the actions of a small minority. It is the aircraft hijack situation in another form. Because of the possibility of one passenger in a million boarding an aircraft with a weapon, the other 999,999 passengers must subject themselves to searches and delays. Unless the situation in the shops improves, in tenyears’ time we may all have to subject ourselves to a body-search every time we go into a store to buy a tin of beans!61. Why does the honest public have to pay higher prices when they go tothe shops?A. There is a “shrinkage” in market values.B. Many goods are not available.C. Goods in many shops lack variety.D. There are many cases of shop-lifting.62. The third group of people steal things because they _____.A. are mentally illB. are quite absent-mindedC. can not resist the temptationD. can not afford to pay forgoods63. According to the passage, law-abiding citizens _____.A. can possibly steal things because of their povertyB. can possibly take away goods without payingC. have never stolen goods from the supermarketsD. are difficult to be caught when they steal things64. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the main typesof shop-lifting?A. A big percentage of the total losses are caused by the professionals.B. The deliberate amateurs will be punished severely if they getcaught.C. People would expect that those who can’t help themselves are poor.D. The profession als don’t cause a lot of trouble to the storedetectives.65. The aircraft hijack situation is used in order to show that ____.A. “the professionals do not pose much of a problem for the stores”B. some people “s imply forget to pay for what they take from theshops”C. “the honest public has to pay higher prices”D. the third type of shop-lifters are dangerous(二)七选五:根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
2015—2016学年上学期高中一年级第二次阶段性考试英语试题第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共20小题,每小题2分,满分40分)AOur need to communicate with each other has been a driving force(力量)in the development of technology.In the 20th century we have seen the invention of the radio,television,telephone and fax,and today the Internet has opened up a whole new way of communicating.We now have instant (即刻的)messaging services such as ICQ or China's QQ and chat rooms where people can join group discussions.They mean increasing choices for when,where and how to communicate,and more importantly, with whom.While most people use the Internet to keep in touch with friends and family, a growing number of people use QQ and chat rooms to meet and chat with strangers.Because the Internet allows a certain amount of anonymity, users can be more open making it easier to make new friends.One user said that everyone is equal online,and age and appearance become unimportant.This makes it easier for peopleto communicate with each other.Finding new friends is not the only reason people use chat rooms.The Internet can bring together like-minded (志趣相投的)people who want to discuss their favourite topics.There are chat rooms for certain sports,types of music,styles of art,in fact,just about any interest you can imagine,and many that you can't! Whatever unusual interest you might have, if you search on the Internet,there is a good chance that you will find someone.somewhere in cyberspace,willing to talk to you about it-right now.However, there are problems with going online.It is possible for cyber-criminals to steal information such as credit card details while you are online,and there is always the chance that a new friend is not who he or she claims(声称)to be.One girl was really disappointed when she discovered that her new cyberfriend who wrote poems for her, was actually copying all the poems from magazines.But for all the problems that might come up,instant messaging services and chat rooms are here to stay, putting in touch with friends,family and strangers of similar interests1.People use the Internet to .A.chat to friends and meet family B.meet strangers and write poemsC.chat to friends,family and strangers2.What does anonymity (para.2)mean?A.The state of being unknown.B.The state of being friendly.C.The state of being on Line.3.What types of topics will people discuss on the Internet?A.Sports,types of music,styles of art.B.All kinds of topics.C.Only topics that the Internet allows.4.What is an example of problems with going online?A.Some people may send you poems copied from magazines.B.Your credit card details could be stolen.C.There might be no one to chat with.B“China now has 350 million smokers,accounting for (占)one-third of the world total.Chinese smokers now become addicted to nicotine at the age of 19,five years earlier than the average starting age of 24 in 1 997,”a report said a couple of years ago.Of the 1.1 billion smokers all over the world.more than 800 million are in developing countries.And as the world's largest developing country, China also has the largest number of smokers.Some frightening facts start to appear when we examine who China’s smokers are.Of the 350 million addicts(瘾君子),more than 100 million are under the age of 18,while more than 50 percent of male teachers and doctors are smokers.Such a high rate of addicts among male teachers and doctors will certainly have a bad impact (影响)on the young generation.Teachers are usually expected to be role models for students who tend to consider whatever they do is fight and follow their example.It is very likely that the number of teenage smokers will increase in the near future unless measures are taken to forbid teachers from smoking in front of their students or designate (指定)schools as no-smoking zones.What is truly puzzling is why so many doctors smoke.They are aware of(意识到)theresults of the habit,such as high blood pressure and lung cancer.Their example only helps justify (证明…合理)the addiction of so many others.If educated people set an example by stopping smoking at least in public places.it would be much easier to drive home the notion(观点)that it is uncivilized(不文明的)to smoke in public places.。
2015-2016学年高一英语3月月考试题第 I 卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分30分)(共15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。
AOne of my favorites as a young girl was writing. I found that it was a great way to express what I was feeling. I actually wr ote journals as early as my first grade. I find them amusing to look at now. I even read some to my son. I noticed that he act ually started doing the same thing. He came to me the other day and wanted to read me a story he had written—Sponge Bob Square Pants.As he sat there and read it aloud to me, it brought a big smi le to my face, for I saw myself in him. Recently his school held auditions(试演) for a talent show and he was really interested in it. I reme mbered him asking me, “Mum, what is my talent?” I asked hi m to list all of the things that he enjoyed doing. He said readin g was at the top, followed by drawing, writing and playing Super Mario Brothers. So I asked him, “What can you do to combi ne some of those things that people would enjoy watching?” He disappeared into his room for a while and I began to get a little worried. I know how embarrassed he got performing in fr ont of the big crowds. I heard him rushing down the stairs with excitement.“I can do a puppet(木偶) show, Mum!” He showed me what he had come up with w hile in his room. He called it, Yoshi Goes to Africa. What a great idea I thought to myself. I fou nd a puppet show tent online and cleaned up some old puppe t friends for him. My son was the only boy who entered the tal ent show at his school and he won the second place. I was so proud of him.1. What can we infer from the first paragraph?A. The author felt sorry for her son’s experiences.B. The boy forgot all about his mother’s journals.C. The boy rushed out of the room after finishing a story.D. Both the author and her son were interested in writing.2. Which of the following did the boy like most?A. Writing.B. Drawing.C. ReadingD. Playing..3. Hearing what the boy had come up with about the talent sh ow, the mother was ______.A. pleasedB. discouraged C. embarrassedD. nervous4. According to the passage, we can learn that _______.A. the mother asked her son to join the talent showB. the author’s son took great interest in the talent showC. it was the second time for the boy to enter the talent showD. the boy got nervous in front of the big crowdsBGetting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thin g. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thou ght to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor inEurope lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of Fran ce, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had ta ken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of diseas e, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor eve r since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning awa y dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventingdisease. Yet, it seems thatstandards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to s hine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching d irt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On t he contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家),encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong im mune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.5.The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because .A. they lived healthily in a dirty environment.B. they believed disease could be spread in public bathsC. they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay inD. they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease6.Which of the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing?A. Uninterested.B. Curious.C. Approving.D. Afraid.7.How does the passage mainly develop?A. By following the order of time.B. By making comparisons.C. By providing examples.D. By following the order of importance.8.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To stress the role of dirt.B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To present the change of views on dirt.D. To call attention to the danger of dirt.CThe world’s strangest competitionsCamel hairdressing, Bikaner, IndiaIn Rajasthan, India, camels are kings. They carry goods, wo rk at wells and are necessary for getting from place to place. So a three-day festival, celebrates camels with a fur-cutting competition. Owners spend up to two years preparing t heir camels’hair for the competition. They then cut the fur into beautiful traditional Indian patterns.Tuna(金枪鱼) throwing, Port Lincoln, AustraliaEvery January since 1961, the Tunarama Festival—a celebration of the sandwich-friendly sea creature in the fishing town of Port Lincoln—has attracted up to 25000 visitors for the tuna throwing compe tition. Twenty-pound fish are tied to the ends of a rope, swung around the h ead and thrown as far as possible.Nut-tree climbing, IndonesiaIndonesia’s Dutch colonisers (殖民者) could be cruel. On days of celebration, they would tie a wh eel of prizes to the top of a nut-tree, cover the tree with oil, and invite young locals to try to cli mb it. Indonesia has been independent since the mid-1940s, but the tradition of pole climbing, known as Panjat Pinang, is still popular. Since it's nearly impossible to get to the to p of a pole by yourself, people now work in groups to reach th e prizes.The vertical marathon, SingaporeThe 73-storey Swissotel is the tallest hotel in Southeast Asia, so the b est choice for getting to the top is the lift. But since November 2004, athletic types have been going to the building once a ye ar to race up its 1336 steps. The winners are rewarded with a breath-taking view of the garden city of Singapore from the hotel’s ro of.9. The fur-cutting competition in Bikaner is held to ______.A. show respect for camelsB. increase tourism in BikanerC. protect traditional Indian artD. encourage India’s fur-cutting industry10. What can we learn about Panjat Pinang?A. it was invented by Indonesians.B. it is for young people only.C. it requires teamwork.D. it was once a punishment.11. If you want to have a bird’s eye view of a city, you should win ____.A. the camel hairdressing competitionB. the nut-tree climbing competitionC. the tuna throwing competitionD. the vertical marathonBYou're busy filling out the application form for a position you r eally need; let's assume you once actually completed a coupl e of years of college work or even that you completed your de gree. Isn't it highly attractive to lie just a little, to claim on the f orm that your diploma represents a Harvard degree? Or that y ou finished an extra couple of years back at State University? More and more people are turning to complete deception like this to land their job or to move ahead in their careers, for per sonnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from fam ous schools. A job applicant may have a good education any way, but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are b etter with a diploma from a well-known university. Registrars at most well-known colleges say they deal with deceitful claims like these at the rate of about one per week.Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on applicatio n forms, then. If itturns out that an applicant lying, most colleges are unwilling t o accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy League school calls t hem impostors(骗子); another refers to them as special cases. One well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phras e of all, says that these claims are made by no such people. To avoid outright(彻底的)lies, some job-seekers claim that they attended or were associated with a co llege or university. After carefully checking, a personnel officer may discover that attending means being dismissed after one se mester. It may be that being associated with a college means that the job-seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend.If you don't want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are companies that will sell you a phony(假的)diploma. One company will put your name on a diploma from any number of non-existent colleges. The price begins at twenty dollars for a diploma, which seems rather high for one sheet of paper.Job seekers’ lying is a social phenomenon, and therefore, the whole society should take its responsibility to deal with the pro blem.12. The main idea of this passage is that ________.A. employers are checking more closely on applicants nowB. lying about college degrees has become a widespread pro blemC. college degrees can now be purchased easilyD. employers are no longer interested in college degrees13. According to the passage, special cases refer to cases wh ere ________.A. students attend a school only part-timeB. students lie about their diplomas on their applicationsC. students purchase false degrees from commercial firmsD. students attend a famous school14. We can infer from the passage that ________.A. performance is a better way to judge abilities than a colleg e degreeB. experience is the best teacher for job seekersC. past work histories influence personnel officers more than degrees doD. a degree from a famous school gives an applicant an adva ntage over others15. What can we learn from the passage?A. Buying a false degree is not moral.B. Personnel officers only consider applicants from famous sc hools.C. Most people lie on applications because they were dismiss ed from school.D. Society should be greatly responsible for lying on applicati ons.第二节(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Because of anxiety and malnutrition, he became very weak and before long fell 19 ,and a doctor was sent for. The doctor was not rich enough, but 20 literature.

This visually striking and finely made life-size portrait(肖像)records Washington’s 6-foot-2-inch figure in a pose highlighting strength, composure(沉着), and elegance(高雅). It is put up in a room neighboring to the Powel House parlor(客厅), a period room from one of Philadelphia’s greatest eighteenth-century private homes, where Washington was frequently entertained by his friends, Samuel and Elizabeth Powel. Both spaces contain important examples of furniture by Philadelphia’s finest craftsmen, such as Thomas Affleck and Aitken. Among these is a side chair specially ordered by the Washingtons when living in Philadelphia.Painted in Philadelphia in 1779, Peal’s painting was immedi ately sent to Europe to promoteWashington’s reputation as a leader and the cause of the American Revolution, then in progress. Later , during Europe’s Napoleonic Wars, a Spanish duke(公爵) with strong sympathies with American Revolution owned the picture. At that time he added the complicated carved caption(标题) to it, which describes Washington as “ a liberator of his country who abandoned absolute power.”Curators馆长,监护人American Art Department Staff, website commentary by Carol SoltisLocation位子Galleries 286 and 287, second floor46.

In the world of digital technology, e-mail, social networking and online video games, information is meant to be 11 . Solitude can be hard to discover 12 it has been given up. In this respect, new technologies have 13 our culture.The desire to be connected has brought solitude to a(n) 14 as we‟ve known it.

Reading (30’)ATeenagers at one German school are learning how to achieve happiness alongside other traditional subjects such as math and languages.The class sit in a circle with their eyes shut and they count from one to ten, someone starts,the next voice comes from the far right,a third from the other side.The aim of the game is to listen for an opportunity to shout out the number without clashing(冲突)with another voice or leaving a pause.On the first try,most of the young Germans try to be first,while a few are too shy to join in,but by the fifth time round, they develop a rhythm.The message:give other people space but also confidently claim your own.This is a requirement for social well--being.The Willy Hellpach School in Heidelberg is the first in the nation to develop a happiness course---It is intended for students preparing for university entrance exams.“The course isn‟t there to make you happy,”Ernst Fritz Sehubert.the school principal warned pupils,“but rather to help you discover the ways to become happy.”Cooking a meal together is one of the class exercises.Improving body language under theguidance of two professional actresses is another.The course is taught for three periods a week.Despite the happy subject,the pupils themselves insist it is no laughing matter.“In the fi rst period,we had to each say something positive about another member of the class and about ourselves.No laughing at people,”said Fanny,17.Research by the school shows it is not the first to start happiness classes:they also exist at some US universities,but are mainly based on positive thinking,using findings from studies of depression.“That would be too one-sided for us.We want to show how delicious food or exercise can help,too,”the principal said.26.What‟s the purpose of this passage?A.To introduce the happiness courseB. To describe all the traditional coursesC. To arouse the readers‟ interest in happinessD. To help students struggle against being sad27. The game intended for the students in the 2nd paragraph is mainly to _____________.A. give other people opportunityB. practice how to speak in front of peopleC. confidently speak out one‟s opinionsD. equip them with required social skills28. According to the passage,the happiness course is______________.A. created by the Willy Hellpach SchoolB. to make all the students happy at the timeC. required to be taken by the first year studentsD. to help students discover the way to happiness29. It can be inferred from the passage that_______________.A. the students‟ self-respect can also improve happinessB.the students just took the course as a laughing matterC.the students all certainly become happy after the courseD.the students waste time learning something without value30. What would be the best title of this passage?A. Basic things for happiness B.Having a try to be happyC. Learning how to be happy D.Laughing a lot at schoolB“When one of the doctors criticizes (批评) me, I get defensive. I feel like a child again, being scolded, and I want to explain that I‟m not wrong.” Says Viola, a nurse. This is a common reaction to criticism, but not a good one. There are better ways of dealing with criticism.When Sol was criticized by his new empl oyer for not having made a sale, Sol‟s reaction was to feel sorry for himself. “I had put everything I had into making that sale,” Sol says, “and I felt that I had failed as a person. I had to learn through experience not to react like that to each failure. Rather than reacting immediately to criticism, take some time to think over what was said. Your first question should be whether the criticism is fair from the other person‟s position. The problem may be a simple misunderstanding of what you did or your reasons for doing it.After you cool down, consider what you can do about the situation. The best answer may be “nothing”. “I finally realized that my boss was having personal problems and taking them out on me because I was there,” says Sheila. “His criticism didn‟t really have anything to do with my work, so nothing I said or did was going to change them.” In Sheila‟s case, the best way to deal with it was to leave her job. However, that‟s an extreme reaction. You may simply explain your opinion without expecting an in-depth discussion. You may even decide that the battle isn‟t worth fighting this time. The key, in any case, is to have a reasonable plan.31. When Sol was criticized by his employer, he __________.A. was sad and self-pityingB. was angry and gave up his job.C. was sorry for what he didD. argued bitterly with his employer32. According to the writer, you should take time to think about criticism because _________.A. people may have a mistaken idea of what you didB. you should welcome other people‟s opinionsC. people may discuss it with you in depthD. you need time to understand yourself33. When the writer says that “the best answer may be …nothing‟, he means you may decide __________.A. to take no notice of the criticismB. to argue with your bossC. you need to change your job.D. you‟ve done nothing wrong34. The writer thinks Sheila can decide to leave her job because her boss _______.A. didn‟t like her appearanceB. refused to change his opinionC. made an unreasonable criticismD. refused to talk to her about the criticism35. The last paragraph mainly tells us to _________.A. take time to cool down.B. react to criticism quickly.C. take action quickly.D. take positive action.CAmericans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform (制服)of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people theylook more professional than civilian clothes. People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity than to step out of uniform?Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deductible (可减税的). They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least. Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.36. It is surprising that Americans who worship variety and individuality ________.A. still judge a man by his clothesB. hold the uniform in such high regardC. enjoy having a professional identityD. will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform37. People are accustomed to thinking that a man in uniform ________.A. suggests quality workB. loses his social identityC. appears to be more practicalD. looks superior to a person in civilian clothes38. The chief function of a uniform is to ________.A. provide practical benefits to the wearerB. make the wearer catch the pubic eyeC. in spire the wearer‟s confidence in himselfD. provide the wearer with a professional identity39. According to the passage, people wearing uniforms ________.A. are usually helpfulB. have little or no individual freedomC. tend to lose their individualityD. enjoy greater popularity40. The passage is mainly about _____________.A. uniforms and societyB. the importance of wearing a uniformC. practical benefits of wearing a uniformD. advantages and disadvantages of uniformsIV.

From my experience, one of the most important factors 11 make forming a new habit hard is that a lot of willpower 12 (require), at least in the beginning, and that alone can prevent many people correctly developing their desired habits.Now instead of just using willpower and reminding 13 (you) to start the new habit each day, why don’t you just link it to an existing one? I have done 14 experience. It started with just 20 pushups (俯卧撑), something easy. So before I showered each day, I would do the pushups. 15 a couple of days, I increased the amount just to make it a bit more challenging.Gradually, over the course of about 3 months, I’m now doing 100 pushups. And as the habit grew stronger, it got easier to do so 16 (natural). Now I know the habit is pretty much ingrained (根深蒂固), for I feel like something is missing17 I don’t do this before showering. I found it pretty easy 18 (create) this habit and not much willpower was involved.I think the key, apart from using an 19 (exist) habit, is to start out with something really easy. Once that starts becoming part of your 20 (day) routine, add on to it.III. Cloze (20')I stopped to watch my little girl busy playing in her room. In one hand was a plastic 21 ; in the other a toy broom. I listened as she was speaking to her make-believe little friend and I’ll never forget the words she said, even 22 it was a pretense.She said, “Suzie’s in the corner because she’s not been very 23 . She didn’t listen to a 24 I said or do the things she should.” In the corner I saw her baby doll all dressed in lace and pink. It was 25 she’d been put there to sit alone and 26 .My daughter 27 her “conversation”, as I sat down on the floor. She said, “I’m all fed up. I ju st don’t know what to do with her any more. She cries whenever I have to work and wants to play games, too. She never 28 me do the things that I just have to do.She tries to help me with the dishes, but her arms just cannot 29 . And she doesn’t know30 to fold towels. I don’t have the 31 to teach. I have a lot of work to do and a big house to keep clean. I don’t have the time to sit and play—32 what I mean?”And that day I thought a lot about making some 33 in my life, as I listened to her 34 words that cut me like a knife. I hadn’t been paying enough attention to what I hold most 35 . I’d been caught up in responsibilities that increased throughout the year.But now my 36 has changed, because, in my heart, I realize that I’ve seen the world in a different 37 through my little darling’s eyes. So, let the cobwebs (蜘蛛网)38 the corners and the dust bunny rabbit rule the floor. I’m not going to worry about keeping up with them 39 .I’m going to fill the house with 40 of a child and her mother, for we are granted only one childhood, and we will never get another.21.A.lamp B.camera C.hammer D.phone 22.A.then B.as C.though D.so 23.A.gentle B.good C.happy D.helpful 24.A.word B.story C.joke D.sentence 25.A.possible B.obvious C.common D.unusual 26.A.recover B.pretend C.think D.regret 27.A.continued B.stopped C.repeated D.interrupted 28.A.has B.helps C.makes D.lets29.A.reach B.settle C.arrive D.handle 30.A.what B.whether C.why D.how 31.A.ability B.duty C.energy D.reason 32.A.mind B.see C.feel D.learn 33.A.influences B.changes C.plans D.troubles 34.A.innocent B.casual C.generous D.humorous 35.A.clever B.heavy C.dear D.lovely 36.A.purpose B.principle C.destination D.attitude 37.A.glance B.light C. focus D.impression 38.A.have B.manage C.make D.stop 39.A.either B.any more C.neither D.anywhere 40.A.conversations B.messages C.imaginations D.MemoriesIV. Reading comprehension (20')AIn my living room, there is a plaque (匾) that advises me to “Bloom (开花) where you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy. I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s, when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville, Kentucky. The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program. Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who “bloomed” in her remote ar ea.Dorothy taught in a school In Harlan County, Kentucky, Appalachian Mountain area. To get to her school from the town of Harlan, I followed a road winding around the mountain. In the eight-mile journey, I crossed the same railroad track five times, giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times. Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains, I found it depressing. The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.From the moment of my arrival at the little school, all gloom (忧郁) disappeared. Upon arriving at Dorothy’s classroom. I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen. The children had been prepared to show me their latest projects. Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for “dinner” (lunch). In case you don’t know, poke greens are a weed-type plant that grows wild, especially on poor ground.Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students. Her enthusiasm never cooled down. When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification, Dorothy was ready. She came to the assessment and passed in all areas. Afterward, she invited me to the one-and-only steak house in the area to celebrate her victory, as if she had received her Ph. D. degree. After the meal, she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand. She said it was a family heirloom (传家宝), but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things. (360 words)41. “Early Childhood Development” in Paragraph 1 refers to __________.A. a program directed by DorothyB. a course given by the authorC. an activity held by the studentsD. an organization sponsored by Union college42. In the journey, the author was most disappointed at seeing __________.A. the long trackB. the poor housesC. the same trainD. the winding road43. Upon arriving at the classroom, the author was cheered up by __________.A. a warm welcomeB. the sight of poke greensC. Dorothy’s latest projectsD. a big dinner made for her44. What can we know about Dorothy from the last paragraph?A. She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant.B. She got a pen as a gift from the author.C. She passed the required assessment.D. She received her Ph. D. degree.45. What does the author mainly intend to tell us?A. Whatever you do, you must do it carefully.B. Whoever you are, you deserve equal treatment.C. However poor you are, you have the right to education,D. Wherever you are, you can accomplish your achievement.BIt’s such a happy-looking library, painted yellow, decorated with palm-tree stickers and sheltered from the Florida sun by its own roof. About the size of a microwave oven, it’s pedestrian-friendly, too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach country Estates, along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.It’s a library built with love.A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsin-based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “That’s what we’re going to do for our spring break!”Son Austin, now a 10th-grader, didn’t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51-year-old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he’d built years earlier for daughter Abbie’s toy horses, and made a door of glass.After adding the library’s final touches (装点), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book,” and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.They stocked it with 20 or so books they’d already read, a mix of science fiction,reference titles, novels and kids’ favorites. “I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again,” said Janey, a stay-at-home mom.Since then, the collection keeps replenishing (补充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day.The project’s best payoff, says Peter, are the thank-you notes left behind. “We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.” (317 words)46.
