Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees' nest(巢)and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper一a little bird called a honey guide.The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax (蜂蜡) in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees’ nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as itleads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share.Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit. 【1】Why is it difficult to find a wild bees' nest?A．It's small in size.B．It's hidden in trees.C．It's covered with wax.D．It's hard to recognize.【2】What do the words "the follower" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．A bee.B．A bird.C．A honey seeker.D．A beekeeper.【3】The honey guide is special in the way____________。

浙江高二高中英语月考试卷班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解1.When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Doctor Gibbs. He didn't look like any doctor I'd ever known. He never yelled at us for playing in his yard, but was always very kind.When Doctor Gibbs wasn't saving lives, he was planting trees. He had some interesting theories about planting trees. He believed in the principle: "No pain, no gain". He hardly watered his new trees, which flew in the face of conventional wisdom. Once I asked why and he told me that watering plants spoiled them because it made them grow weaker. He said you had to make things tough for the trees so that only the strongest could survive. He talked about how watering trees made them develop shallow roots and how, if they were not watered, trees would grow deep roots in search of water. So, instead of watering his trees every morning, he'd beat them with a rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree's attention.Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I'd watched him plant some twenty five years ago. They were all tall and strong.I planted a couple of trees myself a few years ago. Two years of attending these trees meant they grew up weak. Whenever a cold wind blew, their branches trembled. Adversity(逆境) seemed to benefit Doctor Gibb's trees in ways comfort and ease never could.Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I often pray that their lives will be easy. But lately I've been thinking that it's time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to meet with hardship. There's always a cold wind blowing somewhere. What we need to do is to pray for deep roots, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we won't be torn apart.【1】With the trees planted, Doctor Gibbs often ________.A．kept watering them every morningB．beat them to make them grow deep rootsC．talked to them to get their attentionD．paid little attention to them【2】Which prayer does the author wish for his sons?A．Have an easy life, without too much to worry about.B．Be able to stand the rain and wind in their lives.C．Have good luck, encountering less hardship in their life.D．Meet people like Dr Gibbs in the future.【3】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A．Prayers for my sons B．Doctor Gibbs and his treesC．Growing roots D．Watering trees2.A recent documentary produced by the British Broadcasting Corporation has caused a stir in China and in the UK.The documentary, titled Are Our Kids Tough Enough? Chinese School revolves (以……为主题) around five Chinese teachers who are sent to teach 50 UK teens at a school in Hampshire.The teachers instruct the students for a month. The pupils are then tested, and the results are compared to the ones of those who have continued in the regular UK education system. The idea is to see if the Chinese method improves academic performance.The Chinese teachers use their own teaching methods but receive strong resistance from the students. A clip from the documentary online shows some problems, with Chinese teachers calling their students lazy and lacking in discipline(纪律), while the students say the high pressure and harsh teachers are driving them crazy. This has aroused a new debate in both China and the UK, with some arguing the teenagers need more regulation and discipline. Others say Chinese methods encourage note learning instead of independent thinking. For instance, Chinese language teachers should do more than pass on knowledge about words and characters. They should inspire students, helping them feel the sentiment from Chinese literature. This is a higher level of teaching.Yang Dongping, dean of the 21st Centu ry Education Research Institute, says, “The Chinese teaching methodsare designed to strictly train the majority. Foreign teaching methods, however, are more natural and relaxing, and designed to inspire students' interest in learning. Education methods are based on culture. That is why a successful education method in one place may not work that well when simply 'transplanted' into another place.”Yang Dongping says, “The documentary does reflect some problems rooted in traditional Chinese teaching methods. Nobel Prize winner, Yang Zhenning, gave a very fair comment on this issue. He said the Chinese-style education method works for most ordinary qualified students effectively, helping them reach high standards. However, it may compromise the training for high-potential outstanding students.”【1】What is the purpose of 50 UK teens' being instructed by five Chinese teachers?A．To test the effectiveness of Chinese teaching method.B．To help the school improve their teaching efficiency.C．To do some practical research into the UK education system.D．To test the intelligence of the UK teens.【2】What's the meaning of the underlined work "harsh" in the fourth paragraph?A．Very attractive.B．Quite friendly.C．Rather cold.D．Extremely strict.【3】According to the report, Chinese teaching methods should focus more on ________.A．passing on knowledge B．encouraging independent thinkingC．regulation and discipline D．training the majority strictly【4】Yang Zhenning's comment implies that traditional Chinese teaching methods are ________.A．good for Chinese students of all levelsB．helpful to students of high standardsC．good for most ordinary qualified studentsD．helpful to high-potential outstanding students3.Parents who help their children with homework may actually be bringing down their school grades. Other forms of parental involvement, including volunteering at school and observing a child's class, also fail to help, according to the most recent study on the topic.The findings challenge a key principle of modern parenting where schools expect them to act as partners in their children's education. Previous generations concentrated on getting children to school on time, fed, dressed and ready to learn.Kaith Robinson, the author of the study, said, “I really don't know if the public is ready for this but there are some ways parents can be involved in their kids' education that leads to declines in their academic performance. One of the things that was consistently negative was parents' help with homework.” Robinson suggested that may be because parents themselves struggle to understand the task. “They may either not remember the material their kids are study ing now, or in some cases never learnt it themselves, but they're still offering advice.”Robinson assessed parental involvement performance and found one of the most damaging things a parent could do was to punish their children for poor marks. In general, about 20% of parental involvement was positive, about 45% negative and the rest statistically insignificant.Common sense suggests it was a good thing for parents to get involved because “children with good academic success do have involved parents”, adm itted Robinson. But he argued that this did not prove parental involvement was the root cause of that success. “A big surprise was that Asian-American parents whose kids are doing so well in school hardly involved. They took a more reasonable approach, conveying to their children how success at school could improve their lives.”【1】The underlined expression “parental involvement” in Paragraph 1 probably means ________.A．parents' participation in children's educationB．parents' expectation on children's healthC．parents' control over children's lifeD．parents' plan for children's future【2】What is the major finding of Robinson's study?A．Modern parents raise children in a more scientific way.B．Punishing kids for bad marks is mentally damaging.C．Parents are not able to help with children’s homework.D．Parental involvement is not so beneficial as expected.【3】The example of Asian-American parents implies that parents should ________.A．spend more time improving their own livesB．set a specific life goal for their childrenC．help children realize the importance of schoolingD．take a more active part in school management二、其他Even if you think that your parents are mean-spirited at times, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life. You love them for the fact that they created you, raised you, and are in part a source of who you are. Here are some ways to love your parents.【1】A gentle “good morning” and “I love you” will warm a coldest heart. Remember that they brought you into this world. Without your parents, you might still wander at unknown corner in an unknown world.Respect them more and cherish these moments. You can use these moments to learn from them when you are off on your own. It’s OK to get angry but angry actions don’t help you or your parents. Act calmly, cool off, or talk to a friend.【2】Obey their requests. It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them. It may seem like you are going through hell when you don’t get what you want or you have to clean. However, you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it’s cold, raining, snowing, or too hot. Understan d that parents are human beings and make mistakes.【3】 Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents.Keep company with them. Do things with your parents like watching TV, or go somewhere with them.【4】 Listen to their old stories and learn from them. You will find they are your teachers in this way or another. Some people simply may not be able to love their parents.【5】 Seek help if you are being abused in any way. Parents do not have the right to harm you. A．Forgiveness is the key.B．Tell them you love them every morning.C．Parents will in turn express their love to you.D．After this, share your feelings with your parents.E. Anyway, spend as much time with them as you can.F. Please remember parents are as important as friends.G. There can be realistic reasons for this, family violence for example.三、完形填空As the saying goes, roses given, fragrance in hand.

For thousands of years, we have been polluting the environment, making it hard for animals to live on the planet. We have been killing animals for their fur, feathers or meat, or simply because they are dangerous. As a result, many kinds of animals have disappeared forever. Hundreds more are on the endangered list today.Should we care about animals? Of course we should. If animals of a certain kind all disappear, they will never come back again. Animals are more than just resources of things we need. Every kind of animal has its place inthe balance of nature. Destroying any kind of animal can lead to many problems. For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks, the corn and grain that the farmers stored were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice. With less and less hawks to keep down their numbers, rats and mice multiplied quickly. And if people kill too many birds, more and more insects will eat the crops.Luckily, we’ve realized that we shouldn’t kill animals any more. And people are working hard to save those animals that would disappear soon. The government also passed laws to protect the endangered animals. In fact, quite a few countries have passed such laws. These laws forbid the killing of any kind of animal on the endangered list. We should try our best to protect and save the endangered animals.【1】The text calls on us to__________.A．keep animals at home B．protect the environmentC．protect the endangered animals D．know more about the balance of nature.【2】Why do people kill animals?A．Animals cause many serious problems.B．They kill animals for something they need.C．Animals destroy their natural resources.D．They kill animals to protect the environment【3】The example that farmers killed hawks shows that__________.A．there were too many rats and miceB．hawks are the most important in the natureC．animals are good food resourcesD．every kind of animal is important in nature3.Bungee jumping is not a new activity. Men on Pentecost Island in the South Pacific have been doing land jumping for hundreds of years. The men tie long vines(藤) from plants around their ankles（踝关节）. They spend days building tall towers out of vines and logs(圆木). Then they jump off them.According to their beliefs, the first land diver was a woman. She decided to run away from her rude husband. So she climbed up a tall tree and tied some vines around her feet. Her husband also climbed up the tree and tried to catch her, but the woman jumped and the man followed. The vines saved her life, but her husband died.This ancient custom caught the interest of some students at Oxford University in England. In the late 1970s, they formed a group called the Dangerous Sports Club. They were some of the first people to test several of what are now called extreme sports. They are said to have invented modern bungee jumping.In the spring of 1979, members of the group jumped off the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol, England. They were attached to the bridge by a bungee cord, a long elastic rope that stretches. The group soon received even more attention when they organized a bungee jump off the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, California.A man named A. J. Hackett of New Zealand decided to make the sport into a business. He started developing bungee ropes and material with a friend. They held a major jump in 1987 off the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris, France. They later got permission to open the first bungee jumping operation on the Kawarau Bridge in Queenstown, New Zealand. Many people paid 75 dollars to jump off the bridge with a bungee cord attached to their ankles.【1】The second paragraph tries to tell us________________.A．a story about a woman land diverB．the beginning of modern bungee jumpingC．the beginning of land jumping on Pentecost IslandD．a story about a brave woman and her rude husband【2】The underlined word them in the first paragraph refers to__________.A．plants B．tall towers C．vines D．logs【3】The Dangerous Sports Club first caught people’s attention when they jumped off_________.A．the Eiffel Tower B．the Kawarau BridgeC．the Golden Gate Bridge D．the Clifton Suspension Bridge四、信息匹配【1】I had a very happy day today because we had no school though it is Tuesday today. I played football with my friends on the playground in our school. Then we had a big dinner with a lot of our friends.【2】Today was a special day. After the bell rang for the lesson, we all sat up straight, waiting for our maths teacher. Today in former years we would place something on the top of the door so that when someone entered, it would fall onto that person. But this year, we put nothing on the top of the door. But as our maths teacher was entering, we all shouted “Take care”. The teacher got a surprise and raised his head but saw nothing. We all laughed and said “April fool”.【3】Early this morning I got up and woke up my sister Jane. Together we went from door to door to call on my friends. It was a day for us t o play. We gathered on the square of the town with our New Year’s gift. We exchanged our gifts and played all kinds of games on the square. How happy we were!【4】This evening we had a Halloween party in the open. We were all dressed in witch’s outfit and wore masks. We sang and danced happily. We couldn’t figure out who was who though we were all such close friends or neighbors.【5】Today I gave a kiss to the girl I love most in front of all my classmates. I didn’t say anything before. But today I was brave enough to kiss her on the face with my classmates and my history teacher near at hand. A．Near Year’s DayIt falls on the first day of the year. The year should begin happily, they say, so that it will end happily. And on the first morning of the New Year, children in Scotland, Wales and the English border countries rise early so that they may make the round o f their friends and neighbors. “On January 1st,” writes a 13-year-old Scottish girl, “I always go New Year’s Gifting with my sister and friends, about four of us. I get up about 7 o’clock and call for my friends and go round the houses and farms.”B．Shrove TuesdayFor centuries Shrove Tuesday has been a day of high festival for apprentices (学徒) and schoolchildren. It has been a day of feasting, and cock fighting, a day for football , and rowdiness (吵闹). And it is pleasing to find that it is still a special day for children in some parts of England, where “Pancake Day (薄煎饼日),” as they call it, is kept as a school holiday.C．Kissing FridayA teacher writing to the Yorkshire Post tells how after Ash Wednesday, comes Kissing Friday. A few days ago, when she arrived at a country school and was taking a mixed class of 13-year-old children in country dancing, she saw the leading boy suddenly lean across and kiss his partner, who showed no sign of embarrassment. When, as teacher, she expressed her surprise, the boy said, “It’s all right, Miss. You see, it’s Kissing Friday”. And he explained that on Friday following Shrove Tuesday any boy had the right to kiss any girl without being resisted.D．April Fool’s DayThe first day of April ranks amongst the most joyous days in the juvenile (青少年) calendar. It is a day when you hoax (愚弄) friends of yours with jokes like sending them to the shop for some pigeon’s milk, or telling them to dig a hole because the dog has died; when they come back and ask where the dead dog is, you say “April fool” and laugh at them.E. May DayOn the first of May, in country districts, young maidens (少女) rise early and go out into the dawn, as they have done for centuries, to wash their faces in the May dew (露水). In Somerset children call this “kissing the dew”. In most places, the girls do so to ensure that they shall have a beautiful complexion (肤色) for the rest of the year. F. HalloweenIt falls on October 31. Many children attend Halloween parties. “The best thing about the party is that you should go in fancy dress, ” says a girl. The most popular dress is a Witch’s outfit, or something to do with lucky charms.It is said that one of the luckiest things at a Halloween party is for a person to come in with a lump (块) of coal.五、单词拼写单词拼写(共5小题, 满分5分)【1】The couple a_________ a child last year , so they do not feel lonely now.【2】Sports shoes are not a______________ for a formal wedding.【3】As we all know, smoking has a harmful e__________ on all of us.【4】Father is strongly o________ to doing shopping on Sunday because the streets and supermarkets are fullof people.

The Maya were so bright that they achieved a lot. They had farms, temples and cities with many buildings. They knew much about nature and the world around them. This knowledge helped them to live a better life than most people of that time.In ancient Mexico there were many small clearings in the forest. In each clearing was a village with fields of crops around it. The Maya planted seeds after they cleared the land. A farmer was able to grow crops that produced for several people. But not every Maya had to be a farmer. Some were builders or priests (祭司).The Maya believed in many gods. They built large temples to honor them. Skillful workers built cities around these temples. It was difficult because they had to carry all of the building materials themselves. Today, many of these ancient Mayan cities and temples are still standing.Although the Maya worked hard to build the beautiful cities, very few of them lived in them. Usually, only the priests lived in the cities. The other people lived in small villages in the forests. Their houses were much simpler. Most Maya lived a simple life close to nature.Measuring time correctly was important to the Maya, so Mayan priests made a system to keep track of time. They wrote numbers as dots ( … ) and bars ( — ). They also made a calendar (日历). The year was divided into 18 months of 20 days each with five days left over.Around the year 800, the Maya left their villages and beautiful cities, never to return. No one knows why this happened. They may have died from a deadly disease. They may have left because the soil could no longer grow crops. The lost secrets of the Maya are still beyond the reach of modern people. They are still one of our greatest mysteries (神秘).【1】The Maya lived better than most people of their times because _____.A．they had skillful workersB．they believed in many godsC．they knew better about natureD．they could measure time correctly【2】It can be inferred from the passage that _____.A．the calendar was first invented by the ancient MayaB．the ancient Mayan cities and temples were well builtC．the ancient Mayan people led a happy life in the citiesD．the priests were not highly respected by the ancient Maya【3】The underlined word “they” in the passage refers to _____.A．the Mayan people B．the Mayan villagesC．the Mayan cities D．the lost secrets of the Maya【4】Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A．The Life of the Maya B．The Cities of the MayaC．The Mystery of the Maya D．The Belief of the Maya2.Christmas Eve means a warm get-together with friends, a candlelight dinner, or perhaps a celebration at a pub for students. But, for Cai Yingjie, the night has a different meaning: helping beggars（乞丐）and thehomeless(people without homes).Cai, who is a st udent in journalism at Tsinghua, could be found at Beijing’s Wudaokou Light Railway Station that special evening. When she saw an old beggar, she took the cold, rough hands of the woman with her warm, clean hands, and gave the woman some warm bread and helped her put on a pair of new gloves.The woman was surprised for a few seconds, then burst into tears, saying “for the first time I feel respected”.Cai said, “A beggar’s life is very hard. That’s why I want to help them.”Cai was one of 14 Tsinghua students spending Christmas Eve among the poor. They walked in the cold wind along the streets from 4 to 7 pm on Friday, visiting 15 beggars in Beijing’s Haidian District.They brought bread and gloves with them, and stopped to greet beggars and offer them some of the warm food. Each beggar greeted them with a look of surprise.“I know the activity can’t help much, but it’s meant to show our respect and care for beggars and the homeless who have been neglected for so long,” said Sun, head of the group. “And Christmas is a good time for that.”【1】What does Christmas Eve mean to the 14 Tsinghua students?A．Taking 15 beggars to Tsinghua.B．Getting together with friends.C．Showing care to the beggars and the homeless.D．Selling bread and gloves to the beggars.【2】What does the beggar mean by saying “for the first time I feel respected”?A．The beggar has been waiting for Cai for long.B．The beggar hasn’t been shown care for so long.C．The beggar has been respecting Cai for a long time.D．This is the first time the beggar has seen Tsinghua students.【3】What did each beggar feel when they received greetings?A．Sad.B．Amazed.C．Frightened.D．Proud.【4】The word “neglected” in the last passage means _______.A．protected B．foundC．taken care of D．given no enough care3.I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat doing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the more wonderful thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she’d said again, “it’s for Elizabeth.”I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface”.As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me.I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace— it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.Now the present of her desk tol d, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside —a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times.Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.【1】The passage shows that ______.A．mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughterB．mother was too serious about everything her daughter had doneC．mother cared much about her daughter in wordsD．mother wrote to her daughter in careful words【2】The word “gulf” in the passage means ______.A．deep understanding between the old and the youngB．different ideas between the mother and the daughterC．free talks between mother and daughterD．part of the sea going far in land【3】What did mother do with her daughter’s letter asking forgiveness?A．She had never received the letter.B．For years, she often talked about the letter.C．She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in all her life.D．She read the letter again and again till she died.【4】What’s the best title of the passage?A．My letter to Mother B．Mother and ChildrenC．My mother’s Desk D．Talks between Mother and Me4.Abby, Steven, Jonathan, 和 Tina都想去电影院看电影。

I home and was brushing my teeth when I , and there on the bathroom mirror was a note in the of a heart. It said, “Hi, Mom! I Love You.

It was obvious that her scribbles, being lovely art objects, showed a lot about her of the world of writing.Gradually, our family began writing a great deal. I sensed that writing helped Laurel learn to read. As a matter of fact, by observing my own child and her friends and by reading professional books, I became more and more about how writing develops and how can help children become eager writers.【1】A．1eft B．returned C．missed D．headed【2】A．turned up B．turned down C．looked up D．looked on【3】A．size B．shade C．model D．shape【4】A．picture B．composition C．note D．page【5】A．found B．imagined C．dreamed D．doubted【6】A．relative B．useful C．daily D．personal【7】A．important B．ordinary C．fortunate D．skilled【8】A．learned B．regarded C．considered D．discussed【9】A．Yet B．Though C．But D．So【10】A．disappointed B．attracted C．puzzled D．worried【11】A．apart from B．because of C．instead of D．rather than 【12】A．arguments B．fear C．understanding D．dislikes【13】A．when B．how C．where D．whether【14】A．particular B．clear C．anxious D．crazy【15】A．teachers B．friends C．books D．parents三、阅读理解1.I made a pledge (誓言) to myself on the way down to the vacation seaside cottage(别墅). For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting a Biblical（圣经的）passage about husbands being thoughtful of their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks thatwould change.And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks great on you.”“Oh, Tom, you noticed.” she said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled.After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk along the seaside. I started to refuse, but then I thought, “Evelyn’s been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me.” We walked along the seaside while the children flew their kites.So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that's how the whole vacation passed. I made a new pledge to keep on remembering to choose love.There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. On the last night at our seaside cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.“What’s the matter?” I asked her.“Tom,” she said in a voice filled with sadness, “do you know something I don’t?”“What do you mean?”“Well…that checkup（体检）I had several weeks ago…our doctor…did he tell you something about me？Tom, you’ve been so good to me…am I dying?”It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I burst out laughing.“No, honey,” I said, hugging her in my arms. “You’re not dying; I’m just starting to live.”【1】In the first paragraph, “No ifs, ands or buts” probably means “_________.”A．unconditionally B．by chanceC．unfortunately D．in advance【2】 During the two weeks on the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife because __________.A．she looked lovely in her new clothesB．he had made a lot of money in his Wall Street firmC．he was determined to be a good husbandD．she was seriously ill【3】The author says, “There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment.” What was the one thing that went wrong?A．He praised her sweater, which puzzled her.B．She insisted on visiting a museum, which he hated.C．He knew something about her illness but didn’t tell her.D．He was so good to her that she thought she must be dying.【4】By saying “I’m just starting to live,” Tom means that __________.A．he is just beginning to understand the real meaning of life.B．he is just beginning to enjoy life as a loving husband.C．he lived an unhappy life before and is now starting to change.D．he is beginning to feel regret for what he did to his wife before2.The meaning of the word “volunteer” may be a little different in different countries, but it usually means “one who offers his or her services”．Volunteers don’t expect any kind of pay．Tracy, a good friend of mine, however, recently came back from India with a new idea of what being a volunteer means．She worked for two and a half weeks in one of Mother Teresa’s homes in Calcutta．The following is her story．“I watched a video（视频） about her．I was so moved by her spirit to help others and her endless love for every human being that, after I graduated from a high school, I wanted to try her kind of work．So with two friends I flew to Calcutta for a few weeks．”“I was asked to work in a home for sick people．I helped wash clothes and sheets, and passed our lunch．I also fed the people who were too weak to feed themselves and tried to cheer them up．I felt it was better to share with them than to think that I have helped them．To be honest, I don’t think I was helping very muc h．It wasthen that I realized that I had not really come to help, but to learn about and experience another culture that helped improve my own understanding of life and the world．”【1】Why did Tracy choose to be a volunteer?A．She liked to work with Mother Teresa．B．She had already had some experience．C．She was asked to do so by Teresa.D．She wanted to follow Mother Teresa’s example．【2】Tracy started her work as a volunteer _______．A．after she met Mother TeresaB．after she finished high schoolC．when she was touring CalcuttaD．when she was working in a hospital【3】What is Tracy’s “new idea” of being a volunteer?A．Going abroad to help the sick．B．Working in Mother Teresa’s home．C．Doing simple things to help the poor．D．Improving oneself through helping others．3.When Ann, a grade two student at a well-known school, was pestered (纠缠) by her classmates to join their group to steal from shops, she was shocked. She was a quiet, well-behaved girl and she did not understand why the girls had approached her.They showed her some of the things they had stolen and said that shop theft was great fun and very exciting. Then they threatened to beat Ann if she did not join them.Ann was deeply troubled. She did her best to avoid the group of the girls after class-es, but they often waited for her outside the school and tried to persuade her to come with them.This problem is one which many school students in Hong Kong face. We asked the chairman（主席） of the local-fight-crime committee（委员会） what Ann should do in these cases.“First of all, she could try to talk the other girls out of the whole thing. Being caught stealing from shops could ruin their futures and it is simply not worth the risk,” he said.“Young people may think that it is easy to get away with stealing from shops, but more and more stores now have plain clothes detectives who are dressed like customers. I would say shop thieves have a more than ninety percent possibility of being caught.“If they won’t listen to her, Ann should turn to someone in charge in school, who can then decide if the matter can be dealt with by her.”【1】 From the first three paragraphs we can learn that ________.A．Ann didn’t know what to do with the caseB．Ann faced the group bravelyC．the group stole a lot of valuable thingsD．the group were short of money【2】The underlined part “talk the other girls out of the whole thing” in the fifth paragraph most probably means ________.A．discuss the possible result with themB．tell them about their futuresC．persuade them to stop theftD．warn them not to disturb her【3】 One of the suggestions to Ann is to ________.A．report the situation to the policeB．ask the local-fight-crime committee for adviceC．hire a detective to catch themD．turn to her teacher for help四、信息匹配【1】Ms Robson’s students are studying French and German.

Because the school system is running out of funding, it needs to make sure that students pass the mastery test or even more money will be lost. If students fail the state standardized test，it is not the fault of drama and music classes—they are failing because the “academic” classes are not sufficient.It is painful to think of how many students will be discouraged from singing, acting, and playing instruments because school programs are no longer offered. Many families cannot afford private music lessons，and many potential musicians and artists may not find their calling if they are not exposed to it in school. The fact that the school committee thinks the arts are not worth the investment will certainly make some students believe the arts are not worth their time or support and the cycle will continue.Teaching for a test does not shape students into complete，well-rounded people. It blocks the natural sense to create and express feelings through art—there is more to life than the analytical thinking that math and English provide. What happens after a test? Sure, a student might graduate, but they will have limited knowledge—certainly not a good preparation for the real world.【1】Music and drama are not included in the high-school curriculum mainly because ________.A．the school committee pays no attention to themB．the school is afraid of losing financial supportC．the students are not interested in both of themD．the state standardized test is more important【2】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．The sufficiency of the classes determines students' performance in the mastery test.B．Quite a few students are discouraged from learning music and art in today's school system.C．Students can be musicians and artists only if they can afford private music lessons.D．The school committee completely influences students' attitude towards the arts.【3】We can learn that music and art can ________.A．motivate students in creativity and expressionB．make students round-shaped people in futureC．provide students with analytical thinkingD．prevent students graduation from high school【4】The best title of the passage can be ________.A．“Who killed music and drama？”B．“Can curriculum go without music？”C．“Why is music so important？”D．“How to prepare for the real world？”2.Many people in the world live in big cities, which are often dirty and difficult places to live. So, some cities will get bigger. They will also get higher, and lower, because people will begin to live under the ground as well as in tall buildings. Scientists also say that men can begin to live in cities under the sea, when there is not enough space on the land. Of course, these new cities will be very expensive, and difficult to build, but they are not impossible. Already, some countries are building places to live under the ground so their people can go there if there is a new war. There are underground cities in Switzerland（瑞士）and China, built by the government（政府）to help some of the people live during a great war.But will people change if they live under the ground for a long time？For example some fish go blind if they live in the dark sea for a long time. People will not go blind, because there will be light underground, but they may change in some way. Scientists say that people who live in cities today are losing their senses of smell, touch and taste. They can’t smell the dirty air, they can’t taste the chemicals（化学制剂）in their food. These senses are not as strong as before, when people lived in the country and grew their own food. The city has changed that. What will the underground city change in everyone？【1】People will live under the ground because _________．A．it’s neither hot nor cold thereB．they’ll be afraid of the warC．there’ll be less space on the groundD．they’ll make their life comfortable【2】Some countries try to build some places under the ground so that people will be able to live there _____．A．when summer comesB．when a war breaks outC．because they think it’ll be safer for themD．when they’re fed up with the life on the land【3】_________, so people who will live there won’t go blind．A．There’ll be enough light under the groundB．It’ll be easy to go upstairsC．Glasses will be sold under the groundD．Medicine will be supplied for free【4】People will lose some senses under the ground because _______．A．the world are pollutedB．it’s dark thereC．the air is dirty and there are a lot of chemicals in their foodD．they can’t grow their own food in the sun3.British researchers have found that children’s IQ predicts their probability of becoming vegetarians (素食者) as young adults.Recent studies suggest that vegetarianism may be associated with lower cholesterol (胆固醇), reduced risk of overweight and heart disease.“We know from other studies that brighter children tend to behave in a healthier fashion as adults—they’re less likely to smoke, less likely to be overweight，less likely to have high blood pressure and more likely to take exercise.” lead author Catharine Gale said, “This study provides further evidence that people with a high IQ tend to have a healthier lifestyle.”In the study, Gale’s team collected data on nearly 8,200 men and women aged 30, whose IQ had been tested when they were 10 years of age.“C hildren who scored higher on IQ tests at age 10 were more likely than those who got lower scores to report that they were vegetarian at the age of 30.”Gale said.The researchers found that 4.5 percent of participants were vegetarians. Of these, 2.5 percent were vegan, and 33.6 percent said they were vegetarian but also ate fish or chicken.There was no difference in IQ score between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarian but also ate fish or chicken，the researchers added.One expert sai d the findings weren’t the whole answer，however.“We don’t know the beliefs or attitudes of the parents of the children，nor do we know if there was a particular event that led these children to becoming vegetarian in their teens or adulthood.” said Lona Sa ndon, and assistant professor at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas.【1】From the article，we know that ________.A．brighter children are likely to become vegetarians when they are ten.B．people with a higher IQ will not be overweightC．brighter children are likely to have a healthier lifestyleD．overweight may cause high blood pressure【2】What does the underlined word “vegan” in the sixth paragraph mean?A．Someone who only eats vegetables.B．Someone who chooses not to eat meat or fish.C．Someone who likes eating meat and fish.D．Someone who likes eating vegetables.【3】This study left some unanswered questions EXCEPT “________”．A．Did the vegetarian children grow up in a family with a vegetarian parent?B．Did the children eat a primarily vegetarian diet at the age of 10?C．Were meatless meals regularly served in the participants’ families?D．Did the vegetarian children really have a high IQ?【4】The main idea of the passage is that ________.A．the low IQ children will be unhealthier when they grow upB．being vegetarians can reduce the risk of overweight and heart diseaseC．IQ is important to vegetariansD．high IQ children are more likely to become vegetarian when they grow up4.That year, in the local school, there was a new math teacher, as well as some new pupils. One of the new kids was the stupidest child that anyone had ever seen. It made no difference how quickly or how slowly they tried explaining numbers to him; he would always end up saying something enormously stupid. Like two plus two was five, seven times three was twenty-seven, or a triangle had thirty corners...Before this boy arrived, math lessons had been the most boring of all. Now they were great fun. Encouraged by the new teacher, the children would listen to the pieces of nonsense spouted by the new kid, and they would have to correct his mistakes.Whenever the new teacher asked questions, the stupid kid would stand up but made the wrong answers, the other students all wanted to be the first to find his mistakes, and then think up the most original ways to explain them. To do this they used all kinds of stuff: sweets, playing cards, oranges, paper planes, etc. It didn't seem like any of this bothered the new kid.However，little Lewis was sure that it was bound to make him feel sad inside. Lewis was sure he would see him crying. So，one day, he decided to follow the new kid home after school. On leaving school, the new kid walked a few minutes to a local park, and there he waited for a while, until someone came along to meet him...It was the new teacher!The teacher gave the new kid a hug, and off they went, hand in hand. Following from a distance, Lewis could hear they were talking about math.【1】The math lessons became interesting because of the new teacher's ______.A．creativity B．imagination C．responsibility D．curiosity【2】The passage implies that the stupidest child ______.A．was in great need of the math teacher's help after classB．was by no means slow in mathC．had no gift for math and was slow to learn itD．disliked both the new math teacher and his lessons【3】According to the passage, Lewis followed the stupid kid in order to ______.A．learn about where he lived B．find out if he felt upsetC．say something to comfort him D．make friends with him【4】What does the underlined word “this” in the third paragraph refer to?A．To find the new kid's mistakes.B．To think up the most original ways to explain.C．To use all kinds of stuff.D．To follow him home after school.5.Six Chinese surveillance ships have entered waters near islands claimed by both China and Japan.China said the ships were carrying out "law enforcement" to demonstrate its jurisdiction(管辖权) over the islands, known as Diaoyu in China and Senkaku in Japan.At least two of the vessels left after the Japanese coast guard issued a warning, Japanese officials say.The move came after Japan sealed a deal to buy three of the islands from their private Japanese owner. Japan controls the uninhabited but resource-rich East China Sea islands, which are also claimed by Taiwan.The Japanese Coast Guard said the first two Chinese boats entered Japan's territorial waters at 06:18 local time (21:18 GMT Thursday), followed by another fleet of four other ships just after 07:00. The first two ships then left the area. A third ship left later on Friday morning, one report said. No force was used, Japanese officials added. "Our patrol vessels are currently telling them to leave our country's territorial waters," the coastguard said in a statement.The Chine se foreign ministry confirmed that its ships were there. “These law enforcement and patrol activities are aimed to demonstrate China's jurisdiction over the Diaoyu Islands and its affiliated(附属的) islets and ensure the country's maritime(海事的) interests,” a statement said.The US has called for ''cooler heads to prevail'' as tension intensifies between China and Japan over the islands, which lie south of Okinawa and north of Taiwan. US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta is due to visit both Japan and China from this weekend as part of a tour of the region that also includes New Zealand.The dispute has seriously marred diplomatic relations between China and Japan and threatens to damage the strong trading relationship, says the BBC's John Sudworth in Beijing. The row(争端) has also generated strong nationalist sentiment on both sides that observers say now makes it very difficult to be seen to be backing down, says our correspondent.The Japanese government says it is buying the islands to promote their stable and peaceful management. Its move followed a bid by right-wing Tokyo Governor Shintaro Ishihara to buy the islands using public donations - an action that would likely have further provoked(触怒) China.China, on the other hand, says the islands have historically been its territory and fishing grounds.Meanwhile Japan's newly-appointed ambassador to China, Shinichi Nishimiya, remains in hospital in Tokyo after he was found unconscious near his home in Tokyo on Thursday. No details have been given on his condition. He was appointed on Tuesday to replace Uichiro Niwa, who has been criticized for his handling of one of the worse diplomatic rows between Japan and China in recent years.【1】The Diaoyu Islands are actually inhabited by .A．Japan B．China C．America D．Nobody【2】Which of the following is true?A．Japan fired at the 6 Chinese ships to warn them to leave the waters.B．China admitted that the 6 ships had been forced to leave the waters.C．The US called on both sides to calm down.D．Shinichi Nishimiya was unconscious in the hospital because somebody attacked him.【3】Why was Uichiro Niwa replaced?A．He is not iron enough in handling the diplomatic rows between Japan and China.B．His health condition is not good enough to work there.C．He didn’t do a good job in dealing with the dispute about the Diaoyu Islands.D．He criticized the Chinese government publicly in an improper way.【4】This news report is most likely to be selected from the newspaper.A．British B．Chinese C．Japanese D．American四、其他1.Directions: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.A. Illegal hunting has caused a decrease in the number of sea turtles.B. Most turtles are eaten by Mexicans and Mexican Americans.C. A campaign to protect sea turtles.D. Many people kill and eat turtles in a religious observance.E. Government should prevent sea turtle being hunted to increase the number of the species.F. A letter was written to Pope to save endangered sea turtles.【1】 ___________Environmental groups in the United States are leading a campaign to save thousands of endangered sea turtles. They have asked Pope John Paul the Second to ban turtle meat during the Christian religious observance known as Lent. Christians observe Lent in preparation for the holiday of Easter.【2】 ___________Environmental groups say illegal turtle hunting is one of the major threats to endangered sea turtles in southern California and Mexico. It has been illegal to harvest and eat sea turtle meat in Mexico for more than ten years. However, demand for sea turtle meat is widespread in both Southern California and Mexico. Biologists believe that illegal hunting is one of the main reasons for the sharp drop in sea turtle populations during the past thirty years.【3】 ___________The week before Easter Sunday is an especially deadly time for the turtles. As many as 5,000 turtles are killed during this time each year. Many Mexicans and Mexican Americans eat turtle meat during the days before Easter. Many people do not eat meat during this holy time in order to obey the rules of Lent. Because sea turtles swim, many people consider them to be fish. Fish is permitted during Lent.【4】 ___________The Sea Turtle Conservation Network is a union of fishermen, environmental activists and researchers. They sent a letter to Pope John Paul, urging the Roman Catholic Church leader to officially declare that sea turtle flesh is meat, not fish or seafood. They say thousands of these endangered animals would be saved if people did not eat them during this religious period. The letter also asked members of the Catholic Church to obey laws banning the capture of turtles in Mexico and the United States.【5】___________About 35,000 endangered sea turtles are killed illegally near the coasts of Baja, California each year. Studies have shown a sharp drop in the numbers of females. They travel from as far away as Japan to lay their eggs on local beaches. Environmental activists say hunting sea turtles for their meat is the main barrier to the recovery of the species. They have urged the governments of the United States and Mexico to improve enforcement of the ban on sea turtle harvesting.2.单句填空：【1】Dr Yuan___________________ his life.

Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear allthis as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.He listened to me quietly, and then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a l ist of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I got a fairly clear picture of myself.I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feel hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments.

But just a few days ago, it took the life of a pop singer in China. Wang Bei, 24, a former singer on Super Girl, died on Nov 15 during plastic surgery in Wuhan, Hubei province. The young singer’s jaw suddenly started bleeding during the procedure, blocking her throat and causing her to suffocate.The Ministry of Health stepped in on Nov 27, calling on health authorities all over China to increase supervision of the country’s medical plastic surgery industry. It also told the Hubei health department to look into Wang’s death and “to make the results of the investigation public as soon as possible”Wang’s death has raised concerns about the dang ers of plastic surgery in China. In China, people, especially youngsters, are becoming more and more conscious of their looks and are willing to go to great lengths to make themselves look more attractive. Today, many young people see plastic surgery as the key to love, wealth and success.Ding Xiaobang, a plastic surgeon at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital, said that in the past decade, he had seen a growing number of patients, like Wang Bei, who were young and naturally good-looking. “They want t o improve their appearance to find better opportunities in work and in marriage,” said Ding.Zhao, 23, a student at the Beijing International Studies University, spent 3,000 yuan on a eyelid tuck before graduating this year. She said: “ Of course I want to look prettier. I want to make a good impression on potential employers.”Ding also owed this trend to frustration. “Some are frustrated with life and use surgery as a way to try and recover,” said Ding.But a lot of people ignore the risk and danger of plastic surgery. In 12 years as a doctor, Zhu Wenbo from Chengdu has often seen unsuccessful plastic surgeries.“ I’ve met several people whose faces were ruined by plastic surgery, and helping them recover is difficult,” said Zhu.Being yourself is the most beautiful thing in the world. But if you are considering plastic surgery, here is some advice from experts:1. Choose qualified hospitals, especially those with a good reputation for plastic surgery. Avoid beauty salons.2. Do not expect too much from changing your appearance. It can only change your face or another body part in certain ways.

But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately：the air you breathe.Previous studies have linked high exposure（暴露）to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problems, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can cause heart attack or stroke（中风） within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one report of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants（污染物）were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. Another study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency（EPA）considers to be of “moderate”(良好) quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.【1】 The text mainly discusses the relationship between _________.A．heart problems and air quality B．heart problems and exercisingC．heart problems and smoking D．heart problems and fatty food【2】The underlined word “modest” in Paragraph 3 most probably means _________ .A．relatively high B．extremely lowC．relatively low D．extremely high【3】 We can learn from the text that __________？A．eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.B．the EPA conducted many studies on air quality.C．moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking.D．stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.【4】The author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to _________ .A．inform B．persuadeC．describe D．entertain四、信息匹配Love, success, happiness, family and freedom ---- how important are these values to you?
