The question of whether our government shoul d promote science and technol ogy or the liberal arts in higher education is not an either/ or proposition(命题)，although the current emphasis on preparing young Americans for STEM (science, technol ogy, engineering, maths)-related fields can make it seem that way.The latest congressional report acknowl edges the critical importance of technical training, but also stresses that the study of the humanities and social sciences must remain central elements of American’s educational system at all levels. Both are critical to producing citizens who can participate effectively in our democratic society, become innovative lead ers, and benefit from the spiritual enrichment that the refl ection on the great id eas of mankind over time provides.Parents and students who have invested heavily in higher education worry about graduates’ job prospects(前景) as technol ogical advances and changes in d omestic and global markets transform professions in ways that reduce wages and cut jobs. Und er this circumstances, it’s natural to look for what may appear to be the most “practical” way out of the probl em. “Major in a subject designed to get you a job” seems the obvious answer to some, though this ignores the fact that many disciplines in the humanities characterized as “soft” often, in fact, lead to empl oyment and success in the l ong run. Indeed, according to surveys, empl oyers have expressed a preference for stud ents who have received a broadly-based education that has taught them to write well, think critically, research creatively, and communicate easily.Moreover, students shoul d be prepared not just for their first job, but for their fourth and fifth jobs, as there is littl e reason to d oubt that people entering the workforce today will be call ed upon to play many different rol es over the course of their careers. The ones who will do the best in this new environment will be those whose educations have prepared them to be flexibl e. The ability to draw upon every available tool and insight-picked up from science, arts, and technol ogy- to solve the problems of the future, and take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves, will be helpful to them and the United States.8．What does the latest congressional report suggest?A．Higher education shoul d be adjusted to the practical needs of society.B．The liberal arts in higher education help enrich stud ents’ spiritual life.C．STEM-related subjects help students find jobs in the information society.D．The humanities and STEM subjects should be given equal importance.9．What does the author say about the so called soft subjects?A．They are essential to stud ents’ healthy growth.B．They improve stud ents’ communication skills.C．They broaden students range of interests.D．They benefit stud ents in their future life.10．What is the main concern of students when they choose a major?A．The academic value of the courses.B．Their interest in relevant subjects.C．Their chances of getting a good job.D．the quality of education to receive.11．What advice does the author give to college stud ents?A．Try to take a variety of practical courses.B．Prepare themselves for different job options.C．Ad opt a fl exible approach to solving problems.D．Seize opportunities to tap their potential.School Counseling（咨询）In our grandparents' time, it was unthinkable．In our parents' time, it was unusual and nobody spoke openly about counseling．These days, more and more schools are asking for this service and it is consid ered a necessity for most．Why is it? What has changed in the last fifty years to have mad e counseling at schools so important?“One reason is that we expect schools to d o more to protect their pupils than we did in the past," says school counselor, Mike Hudson．“ Also, our society d oesn't work as well as it should．Many parents are either und er pressure of work or face the economic problems of unempl oyment, whil e children are under more and more pressure to do well at school．Many pupils feel they are pushed to their limits by their parents and teachers．"Most school children face some kind of relationship problem at some stage with family members, teachers or other pupils, so．it helps to have somebody to talk to．From the pupil' s point of view, it is easier to talk to a counsel or in confidence rather than a family member or teacher．This solution is less embarrassing to pupils, who are not forced to face the person that they had problems with in the first place．They can calmly talkthings through without arguments．School counsel ors advise not only students but also their teachers and parents, and offer other services as well, such as deciding learning disabilities or assisting parents and guardians to make the correct decisions about their children' s education．Counsel ors can help stud ents with probl ems ranging from the most serious, like a death in the family, to what an adult would consider really trivial, like an argument with a friend．In a society that is becoming more and more stressful, this service is providing children with a supportive way to express their fear and worries．12．Why is school counseling becoming important?A．Pupils are not well protected in school．B．Parents can't help their children in learning．C．Parents and pupils are under too much pressure．D．The relationship between parents and schools is worse．13．According to the passage, school counselors________．A．bear high pressure themselvesB．are the guarantee of school successC．have more responsibilities than teachersD．are more likely to be accepted when pupils have problems14．The underlined word "trivial" in Para．5 probably means________．A．unimportant B．puzzlingC．difficult D．urgent15．What d oes the passage mainly talk about?A．The development of school counseling．B．The reaso ns for school counseling’s popularity．C．The advantages and disadvantages of school counseling．D．The comparison of the past and present school counseling．In America, when the eighth graders leave the mid dl e school, they are often worriedabout moving to the high school. It is a hard time for them, but it can be an exciting one as well. To make it easier, stud ents need to get familiar with their school.Even though they’ve done this already in the mid dl e school, it’s still important to find where their classrooms are. Most schools take stud ents to the high school for a visit at the end of their eighth grad e year. And, most schools also have a freshman (新生) speech for parents and students before the first year begins. Sometimes the main office will give away a map of the school. This can help stud ents and parents to find different places in the school.One way to know your high school more and make new friends is to join a club or play a sport. Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports. Fall activities begin in August before the first day of school. If you are not interested in sports, there are clubs for any interest, such as drama, dance, chess, photography, community service, etc. These clubs all ow students from different grad es. By joining an activity, stud ents can find new friendships, not to mention improving their chances in future college applications (申请). The school office will have a list of activities offered at the school and information on how to join them.What’s more, to have a great start to a high school year, students can write d own some of their worries, and ask for help from teachers and school workers.16．According to the text, most stud ents feel ________ when entering the high school.

Because of the silliness, creativity, and repetition involved, TPRS all ows students to learn easily and remember information effortlesslyMemorizing vocabulary and listening to lectures on grammar are sl ow, inefficient ways to learn a new language. The best way to truly learn and commit new material to memory is through conversation. In our Spanish classes, students can expect to speak up to 80% of each class. By speaking in the new language freely and consistently, stud ents can see progress faster because they are using the new grammar and vocabulary that they have l earned at the same time. This helps the brain remember the new words and grammar structures for future use, making it much easier to progress.24．What d oes the program do?A．It offers weekly Spanish classesB．It focuses more on outd oor activitiesC．It gives teachers a chance to receive trainingD．It provides activities about the Spanish culture25．What is the best way to learn a language according to the text?A．Memorizing a larger vocabularyB．Speaking more in the new language.C．Mastering more grammar structuresD．Writing stories to share with others26．What is the purpose of the text?A．To empl oy experienced Spanish teacherB．To hire foreign volunteers for a programC．To attract teen foreigners to a programD．To introduce language l earning methodsIf a trip to Rome or Paris is in your future, be prepared: The European Union Parliament is calling for an end to visa-free travel Americans. EU lawmakers passed a resolution urging the EU Commission to impose (推行) visas on US citizens traveling into the 28-nation bl oc.The dispute (争论) centers on reciprocal treatment of travelers from EU nations and the United States. While Americans have been able to travel throughout EU member nations without a visa, the US still requires citizens of five EU countries—Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Poland and Romania—to apply for entry visas when visiting the US, Reuters reports. Citizens of the other 23 EU member nations can use the US visa waiver program to enter America. The EU lawmakers are calling for mutual treatment for all EU citizens, says Reuters. They've given the EU Commission two months to respond.The trans-Atlantic visa dispute first came to light in April 2014, according to an EU Parliament news rel ease. At that time, five countries—Australia, Brunei, Canada, Japan and the US—required visas for some EU citizens. Since then, Australia, Brunei and Japan have lifted their visa requirements for all EU citizens. Canada, which currently imposes visa requirements on Bulgarian and Romanian citizens, plans to foll ow suit in next December, leaving just the United States at odds with the issue of reciprocity of visa-free travel with the EU.The EU says if a visa requirement for Americans is introduced, it would be temporary, according to a story in Money, which did not give a time frame.27．Which of the foll owing can replace the und erlined word “reciprocal” in Paragraph 2? A．Cruel. B．Equal.C．Unfair. D．Different.28．Which countries have removed visa requirements for all EU citizens according to the text? A．Australia, Brunei and Japan.B．Australia, Brunei, Canada and Japan.C．Brunei, Canada, Japan and America.D．Australia, Brunei, Canada, Japan and America.29．What may be the best title for the text?A．Americans may soon need a visa for traveling to EuropeB．Americans are limiting the EU citizens to enter AmericaC．The EU citizens can go to America for traveling without visasD．The EU government asks for visa requirement from AmericansIn 2016, China released guidelines forbid ding weird(古怪的) construction, shifting their focus to the “economic, green and beautiful”. Now a new plan certainly fits the bill—Liuzhou Forest City, designed by the Italian firm Stefano Boeri Architetti, will be under construction in southern China.The 175-hectare, self-contained neighborhood will contain more than 70 buildings—including homes, hospitals, hotels, schools and offices—all of which will be covered with 40, 000 trees and almost a million plants.This is the first experiment of the urban environment that's really trying to find a balance with nature.The id ea behind the project is to combine as many plants with the architecture as possible. The plants are expected to absorb almost 10, 000 tons of carbon dioxid e and 57 tons of pollutants per year, and produce 900 tons of oxygen a year, while also decreasing the air temperature and providing a new habitat for displaced wildlife. Solar panels(控制板) on the roofs will collect renewable energy to power the buildings.The project comes on the heels of Stefano Boeri Architetti's Vertical Forest, tworesid ential towers in Milan covered in the equivalent(等同物) of five acres of forest.“We started to imagine if it was possibl e to create an urba n environment by planting many trees in the city, ”Boeri said. China, in his eyes, provided the perfect background for such an ambitious project.But the project's completion is a long way off.Construction is set to begin in 2020.Boeri said there is still a lot of planning and research required before a projected compl etion date can be set. He remains, however, optimistic about the project, and confident about its aim. “I really think that bringing forests into the city is a way to reduce climate change, ”h e said. 30．What can be concluded from the first two paragraphs?A．A ban will be stopped quickly.B．An Italian company will pay for the new plan.C．A new neighborhood will satisfy the guidelines.D．All strange buildings in China have been torn d own.31．What benefit will this project bring about?A．Purifying the air around. B．Controlling the climate of the area. C．Providing habitats for all the wildlife. D．Supplying solar energy to the world. 32．Which of the foll owing can replace the und erlined part in Paragraph 4?A．Looks like. B．Foll ows. C．Differs from. D．Equals. 33．What is the text mainly about?A．A future forest city. B．Liuzhou's devel opment.C．China's city-building policy.

Und er the ban students are not abl e to use their phones at all during school hours, including meal breaks.“I think it’s a good thing. School is not about being on your phone,” Paris mumMarie-Caro line Madel eine tol d AFP. “It’s hard with kids. You can’t control what they see and that’s one of the things that worry me as a parent.”There is no law like this in Australia, but some Australian schools have banned phones.McKinnon Secondary School in Victoria introduced a total ban in February and Principal Pitsa Binnion said this has been a success.McKinnon students still have a Chromebook to use in every class for day-to-day l earning but they’re not all owed to use social media. Ms Binnion said at first“teachers cheered and students moaned (抱怨) ,” but now they’re seeing the advantages. “They come to school and they’re not all owed to use phones at all during the school day, including lunch breaks,” she said.“It’s been wond erful in terms of students comm unicating with each other at lunchtime and not looking at their screen,” she said.Ms Binnion also leads by exampl e and doesn’t use her mobile phone in school. “I think anyone can do it if we’ve done it.”Not everyone agrees with the bans. Western Sydney University technology researcher Dr Joanne Orland o wrote in online magazine The Conversation earlier this year that Australia should not ban phones in schools because it’s important to educate kids to live in the age they are raised in.“A good education fo r students today is knowing how to use technol ogy to learn, communicate and work with ideas,” she wrote. “Banning students from using smartphones is a 1950s response to a 2018 state-of-play.”34．Why did Madeleine welcome the ban?A．School is for studying. B．Kids behave badly nowadays. C．Teachers find it hard to control kids. D．Her kids depend too much on phones. 35．What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?A．Some teachers were against it at first.B．Students can now see the good of the ban.C．Students can use their phones at lunch beaks.D．Teachers have stopped using phones at school as well.36．What d oes the underlined word “Chromebook” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to?A．A book. B．A notebook.C．A learning website. D．A kind of computer.37．What d oes Dr Joanne Orlando think of banning phones in schools?A．It will disconnect parents and kids. B．It will cause kids to communicate less. C．It will prevent kids being tech-minded. D．It will make education go back 60 years.On the day the tornad o(龙卷风) hit, there was no sign fierce weather was on its way— the sky was blue and the sun had been out. The first warning my husband, Jimmy, 67, and I, 65, got came around 9 p.m., from some text on the TV Jimmy was watching. He ran upstairs to find me in our third-fl oor bedroom, and we changed the channel from the national television to our local Pensacola, Fl orida, station.Soon the tornad o was on top of us. It was the l oudest thing I have ever heard. The bones of the house shook, and the power went out. And the wind began to roar(咆哮) through the house, most likely through bl own-out wind ows and the door to our garage. Everything was moving. And the back wall of the house came off and fl ew into the darkness outsid e. We had three flights of steps to get to the storeroom d own there, the relative safety of the first floor.I didn’t know how or if we woul d make it d own the steps. It felt as if there were no fl oor underneath me as the wind lifted me off my feet. As we finally reached the last flight of steps, our front door blew out. Sudd enly, a three-foot-long tree branch flew over our heads, missing us by inches.By the time I reached the storeroom, the tornado had been over us for about a minute. Jimmy pushed me d own to the storeroom floor, but he couldn’t g et inside himself because of the wind. I held Jimmy’s arm as the tornad o blew the d oor open. My knees were full of glass, but I felt no pain. If I had let go, Jimmy would have fl own right out the back of the house.All of a sud den, Jimmy lifted off his feet. I thought he was gone. And then everything stopped. He landed on his feet. In those first quiet moments, I couldn’t believe it was over. Our neighbor says the storm lasted four minutes. In that time, four of the twelve town houses in our unit were completely d estroyed. Amazingly, none of us were seriously injured. 38．Where did the couple l earn about the coming fierce weather?A．From the dark sky. B．From the national station.C．From the l ocal news report.

AThe sun was rising when Daryl's delivery truck reached the highway. This was the best time of day to drive, when the roads were wide open and empty. He felt sure he was going to make it to Los Angeles before midnight. It looked like it was going to be a good day.Then he saw it, a large lump in the middle of the road. Daryl often passed dead animals on the roadside but he knew that this was something different. He slammed on his brakes and the truck screeched to a halt.The lump was a girl. He tried shaking her awake but she wouldn't move, so he picked her up and carried her to the side of the road. At least she wouldn't be run over there.Now she was someone else's problem. He had to make it to Los Angeles by midnight and didn't have time to be a hero. He climbed back into his truck but as he looked in his mirror and saw the girl lying still by the side of the road, he knew he couldn't leave her. Daryl put her into his truck and drove to the next town.An hour later he pulled up at the police station. After explaining what had happened, he prepared to leave, only for the policeman to say that he needed to make a report. Daryl knew this would take several hours, but he had no choice. There was no way he'd get to Los Angeles on time now.Three hours later the report was done and the girl had recovered somewhat.

And the Good Morning Britain presenter says she's been able to put a lot of what she's learnt into practice in her own home, preparing meals for sons, Sam, 14, Finn, 13, and Jack, 11.“We love Mexican churros, so I buy them on my phone from my local Mexican takeaway restaurant，”she explains. “I pay ￡5 for a portion(一份), but Matt makes them for 26p a portion, because they are flour, water, sugar and oil. Everybody can buy takeaway food, but sometimes we're not aware how cheaply we can make this food ourselves.”The eight­part series(系列节目), Save Money: Good Food, follows in the footsteps of ITV's Save Money: Good Health, which gave viewers advice on how to get value from the vast range of health products on the market.With food our biggest weekly household expense, Susanna and Matt spend time with a different family each week.

Why do we often assume that more__is__more when it comes to kids and their belongings? The good news is that I can help my own kids learn earlier than I did how to live more with less.I found the pre­holidays a good time to encourage young children to donate less­used things, and it worked. Because of our efforts, our daughter Georgia did decide to donate a large bag of toys to a little girl whose mother was unable to pay for her holiday due to illness. She chose to sell a few larger objects that were less often used when we promised to put the money into her school fund(基金)(our kindergarten daughter is serious about becoming a doctor)．For weeks, I've been thinking of bigger, deeper questions: How do we make it a habit for them? And how do we train ourselves to help them live with, need, and use less? Yesterday, I sat with my son, Shepherd, determined to test my own theory on this. I decided to play with him with only one toy for as long as it would keep his interest. I expected that one toy would keep his attention for about five minutes, ten minutes, max. I chose a red rubber ball—simple, universallyavailable. We passed it, he tried to put it in his mouth, he tried bouncing it, rolling it, sitting on it, throwing it. It was totally, completely enough for him. Before I knew it an hour had passed and it was time to move on to lunch.We both became absorbed in the simplicity of playing together. He had my full attention and I had his. My little experiment to find joy in a single object worked for both of us.() 1. What do the words “more is more” in paragraph 1 probably mean?A.

Raising money for a poor girl.C. Adding the money to her fund.D. Giving the money to a sick mother.() 3. Why did the author play the ball with Shepherd?A. To try out an idea.B. To show a parent's love.C. To train his attention.D. To help him start a hobby.() 4. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Take It or Leave ItB. A Lesson from KidsC. Live More with LessD.

As a result of that, I decided to try to understand what happiness was and how best to achieve it. It was not surprising, then, that I decided to study psychology.On arrival at the university, I was disappointed to find that academic psychologists were trying to understand human behaviour by studying rats in a lab. I felt that there must be other more useful ways of learning how we think and feel. I decided to build my career on trying to discover what made others happy. I started out by studying creative people such as musicians, artists and athletes because they were people who devoted their lives to doing what they wanted to do, rather than things that just brought them financial rewards.Later, I expanded the study by inventing a system called “the experience sampling method”. Ordinary people were asked to keep an electronic pager(传呼机) for a week which gave out a beeping sound eight times a day. Every time it did so, they wrote down where they were, what they were doing, how they felt and how much they were concentrating. This system has now been used on more than 10，000 people, and the answers are consistent: as with creative people, ordinary people are happiest when concentrating hard.I found that the most obvious cause of happiness is intense concentration. This must be the main reason why activities such as music, art, literature, sports and other forms of leisure have survived. In order to concentrate, whether you're reading a poem or building a sandcastle, what you need is a challenge that matches your ability. The way to remain continually happy, therefore, is to keep finding new opportunities to improve your skills. This may mean learning to do your jobbetter or faster, or doing other more difficult jobs. As you grow older, you have to find new challenges which are more appropriate to your age.() 1. What led the author to study psychology?A. His determination to become rich.B. His observation of adults.C. His unhappy childhood.D. His interest in strangers.() 2. Who were the author's study subjects at the start of his career?A. People having deep affection for their career.B. People very aware of their personal life.C. People successful in acquiring wealth.D. People with more freedom.() 3. The author used his system to show that ________．A. people's happiness depends on who they are withB. people are happier when they focus on an activityC. creative people are happier than ordinary peopleD. ordinary people find it hard to concentrate() 4. According to the text, people concentrate more when they are doing ________．A. something strange and enjoyableB. something difficult but possibleC. things appropriate to their agesD. many things at the same time答案A1—3 BACB1—3 BCDC1—4 ACACD1—3 CADE1—4 BABB详解A【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

The poor ant almost exhausted was still bravely doing her best when a dove saw her. Moved with pity, the bird threw her a blade of grass, which supported her like a raft, and thus the ant reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in the grass, she heard a man come near. He was walking along barefooted with a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the dove, he wished to kill it. He would certainly have done so, but the ant bit him in the foot just as he raised his gun to fire. He stopped to see what had bit him, and the dove immediately flew away.

I tried to hear all this as long as I could. 4 , I became very angry. I ran to my father with 5 in my eyes.He 6 to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever 7 what you’re really like? Well, you now have that girl’s 8 . Go and 9 a list of everything she said and mark the points that are 10 . Pay no attention to the other things she said.”I did 11 he told me. To my great 12 , I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t 13 (like being very thin), but a good number I could, and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I went to a fairly 14 picture of myself.I brought the list back to daddy. He 15 to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know 16 than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to 17 , not just close your ears in 18 , feeling hurt when something said about you is true. You’ll find it of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your affairs. Don’t 19 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 always 20 me at many important moments.

It seemed as if it were laughing after every good m ove.I know I should have beaten it for the sake of mankind(为人类着想），but I just couldn't win," he announced and shook his head sadly.Prozorov's disappointment was shared by several grand masters who were pres ent,some of whom were so upset that they shouted at the machine.Many chess play ers said that this meant the end of chess championships(锦标赛）around the worl d,since the fun had been taken out of the game.The computer walked－or rather,rolled-away with 5,000 dollars in prize mone y and limited its remarks to a set of noises and light.56.Which of the following best gives the main idea of this newspaper articl e?A.5,000 dollars goes to a computer!B.New invention a laughing computer!C.World's best chess player beaten!puter

soun ds60.Many chess players felt that playing with a computer would_____.A.make the game tougherB.make the game less interestingC.make man appear foolishD.make man lose lots ofBExtract 1A computerA computer is an "information processor".It is given information,called "da ta",instructed to do certain things and then show us the results.The data put i nto the computer is called the"input" and the results which come out are the "o utput".Some people say the circle of large standing stones at Stonechenge is a kind of computer.Prehistory people worked out their calendar from the position of the shadows made by the sun shining on the stones.Extract 2Teach yourself new subjects and skills at your own pace with a home compute e it to help with schoolwork,for self-improvement,even to improve your care er skills.Learn touchtyping.Foreign languages or computer programming.A home computer can help children of all ages learn classroom subjects such as spelling,geography and others.In fact it makes learning fun.So if you want to teach yourself,or help your childr en teach themselves-get a home computer.It can also help you manage your person al finances(经济）or help you to work taxes and plan household budgets(预算）.Y ou can make business a pleasure with a home computer.61.The writer introduces the words such as "input" and "output" in order to _____.A.introduce people to computer languageB.show computer language is the sam e as EnglishC.help people some scientific languageD.give people some scientific langu age62.Why does the writer talk about Stonechenge in Extract 1?A.To

advertisementC.a teach-yourself computer bookD. a children's guide to computersCWhen did you last see a polar bear(北极熊）?On a trip to a zoo,perhaps?If y ou had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago,you would have se en a whole polar bear club.These "Polar Bears" are people who meet frequently i n the winter to swim in freezing cold water.That day,the air temperature was 3℃,and the water temperature was a little higher.The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island,New York are usually about the age of 60.Members must sat isfy two requirements.First,they must get along well with everyone else in the group;this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club.Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a mon th from November through February.Dcotors don't agree about the medical effects of cold-winter swimming.Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body's temperature dr ops so low that finally the heart stops.Other doctors,however,point out that th ere is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the differe nce between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter.The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits of cold-water sw imming.They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circu latory system(循环系统）because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the bo dy warm.Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water.A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and s hould not try cold-water swimming.The main benefits of cold-water swimming are probably mental.The Polar Bear s love to swim all year round;they find it fun and relaxing.As one 70-year-old woman says,"When I go into water,I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away."65.The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements except that_____.A.they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold monthsB.they must reach the age of 60C.they should be easy to make friends withD.they must agree to swim outdoors from November through February66.According to the passage,some doctors believe it is true that_____.A.Polar Bears are bears swimming in freezing waterB.cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously highC.you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blueD.cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winter67.The Polar Bears like to swim year-round,for_____.A.it is an easy way ot keep the body warm in winterB.they can remain youngC.they find it enjoyable and interestingD.they might meet fewer troubles in life68.The passage is mainly about_____.A.the requirements of the Polar Bear ClubB.a group of cold-water-swimming liversC.the Polar Bears' life in New YorkD.doctors' ideas about cold-water swimmingDSwimming is one of those activities that can be learned early in life.Littl e children can learn to swim as soon as they walk.In fact,you need the same ski lls in walking as in swimming. However,I believe that five is the best age to l earn.By five or six,a child knows fear of water,a very important thing to know. It's wise to be afraid,to recognize true danger.Young ones understand that the water can sometimes be very dangerous.To really benefit from swimming,every swimmer should learn,as soon as possi ble,these four basic strokes;butterfly,backstroke,breastroke,and crawl.I feel t hat one of these-the breaststroke-is different from the others,since some young swimmers use this stroke naturally,without any training.In swimming there are certain rules every swimmer should follow:1.Never swim alone!No matter how good you are in the water,don't risk drown ing by swimming alone.If you swim by yourself,with no life guards or friends wi th you,you may get into trouble.2.Don't go beyond your abilities.Most swimmers know enough not to swim too far from the bank or the beach,Showing off by doing dangerous tricks is no goo d.Swim safely and you will continue to swim and alive.3.Don't smoke.Swimming depends on a healthy body;good lungs are part of it.4.Work at any activity that builds muscles.69.Little children can learn to swim as soon as _____.A.they can talkB.they start walkingC.they have no fear of the waterD.they are five or six years old70.The author believes that fear of water is_____.A.stupidB.sensibleC.dangerousD.not smart71.The stroke that some young swimmers use first is_____.A.Picture(1)B.Picture(2)C.Picture(3)D.Picture(4)72.According to the passage,you should not swim alone because_____.A.the water is too coldB.your parents would not be happyC.something in the water might attackD.you might drownEIs there a difference in meaning between"It's too late to make a telephone. Mary is asleep now." and "It's too late to telephone.Mary will be asleep now？"Yes.The difference is in the reason given for it being too late to telephon e.In the first sentence"Mary is asleep now",the speaker is stating a fact.In th e second sentence"Mary will be asleep now," the speaker is saying what Mary usu ally does.In fact,it's possible that Mary isn't asleep,but she is usually aslee p at this time.So let's take two situations.In the first case,imagine Mary's mother answer s the telephone.You:"May I speak to Mary,please?"Mother:"No.It's too late.Mary is asleep now."You:" Are you sure?It's only 10 o'clock."Mother:" Yes.I went to her room and she was asleep."The mother knows that Mary is asleep because she went into her room and saw her.Here is another case.Two friends decide to telephone Mary.Jack:"Let's telephone Mary.It's 10 o'clock."Jill:"No,It's too late.She will be asleep now."Jill knows that Mary always goes to bed before 10 o'clock ,so now she'll pr obably be asleep.But it is also possible that she is staying up late.73.In the first situation,Mary's mother_____.A.wants to tell you that she knows Mary is asleepB.knows that Mary was asl eepC.has no idea whether Mary is asleep or notD.wants to know if she can take a message for Mary74.In the second situation,Jill_____.A.knows that Mary has gone to bedB.doesn't know that Mary is asleepC.thinks it's likely that Mary cannot answer the telephoneD.is sure that M ary can not answer the telephone75.According to the teacher,in which situation do you think the word "will" is used in the same way Jill uses it?A.It's too heavy,I think.I'll help you.B.Don't get into his office.He will be angry now.C.You won't have to come to my office.I will send it to you.D.Will you ple ase do me a favor?56~60 DDCDB 61~65 ADBBB 66~70DCBBB 71~75 ADACB。

高中阅读理解专项训练附答案解析1篇There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills, you should first master the skills of reading and listening.Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentence, the meaning of the unfamiliar words, etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across. but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example, in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening. For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve quickly, and you can be a fluent English speaker one day.1．According to the writer, which should you improve first among the four skills?A．Reading and listening.B．Reading and writing.C．Writing and speaking.D．Speaking and listening.2．To improve your reading, when you read you should ________.A．look up all the new words in the dictionaryB．think about what you are reading activelyC．spend more time studying grammarsD．copy as many words and sentences as possible3．The underlined phrase “come across” in Paragraph 2 can probably be replaced by “________”. A．meet B．discoverC．hear D．look for【答案】1．A2．B3．A【分析】这是一篇说明文。

高中阅读理解专项训练附答案解析1篇Drrinnggg! That’s the sound that kids all over the country hate to hear-the alarm bell. The new school year has just started and children across the UK have to wake up early in the morning to go to school.But students at one school in northeast England are lucky. They can lie in bed for an extra(额外的)hour before they go to school. Monkseaton High School has been allowing its pupils to come into school an hour later than other schools.The headmaster, Dr Paul Kelley, says that this new approach(方式) helps students pay more attention to their lessons in class. He feels that young people are more energetic and can perform better for the rest of the day. And he adds that for their school students, a late start at school may be better than an early one.Dr Kelley tells the BBC that teenagers don’t perform very well in the morning and their need to sleep is biological(生物的). It seems that this new approach to teaching shows positive(积极的) results. The number of students who sleep in class drops quickly. Besides, the school has already seen a drop in the number of pupils who play truant(逃学) by 27%. More importantly, Dr Kelley also says that exam results have improved by 20%-30% over the past year.Classes at Monkseaton High School begin at 10 a.m. and finish at 3:40 p.m. However, the school opens from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The students can come early and leave late if they want.1．What is this passage?A．A news report. B．A speech.C．A story. D．A notice.2．What is Dr. Paul Kelley’s opinion of the new appro ach?A．He gives no opinions about it.B．He has his doubts about it.C．He disagrees with it.D．He agrees with it.3．Which is NOT the positive result about the new approach?A．The exam results have improved.B．Fewer and fewer students sleep in class.C．Most students get to school earlier.D．The number of pupils who play truant drops.4．When do classes usually begin in schools in the UK according to the passage?A．At 8:00 a.m. B．At 9:00 a.m.C．At 10:00 a.m. D．At 11:00 a.m.【答案】1．A3．C4．B【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。

人教版高一英语必修一《阅读理解》专项练习题（含答案）The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we've never been before. But just as in face - to - face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on - line. 1．Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes.For anything you re about to send: ask yourself, ''Would I say this to the person's face?'' If the answer is no, rewrite and reread.2．If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. 3．If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.4．Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it& a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it's a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything.

Then yoga may be the perfect choice for you. Yoga can be practiced by people of all ages and levels of fitness.6．It's a great way to strengthen your muscles and become more flexible.In the 1930s, Indian Sri Tirumali and K. Pattabhi developed one of the most popular forms of yoga practised worldwide today. They worked together using an ancient Sansknt text called Yoga Korunta to create a set routine of yoga movements and breathing exercises. 7．Ashtanga is different from other forms of yoga. It is a very powerful form of aerobic (有氧的)exercise which creates deep heat in the body. 8．In other forms of yoga, however, the routine can change each time and the stretching exercises aren't aerobic.9．As well as making you stronger and more flexible, it can also help you to stay calm. By focusing on your breathing while doing physical exercise, you are able to get a balance between mind and body. In addition, yoga helps to make us healthier so we are less likely to get common illnesses like colds.Furthermore, yoga encourages you to think about what you're doing. Often you will close your eyes while doing certain movements.10．After a few lessons you'll stop looking at what the others around you are doing.

But while the exact origins of puppet theatre are unknown, it has been popular in many cultures and may have been the very first kind of theatre,” he explains.Roberts’ shows are highly original. “A puppet show can involve a nything from clowning(傻逗) to storytelling,” he says. Equally diverse are the audiences he performs for. “Some are attracted by the puppets themselves, while others enjoy the dialogue.” Roberts believes that this form of entertainment can be appreciated by people of all ages and cultures.Roberts’ interest in puppets started when he received some beautiful glove puppets one Christmas. He started putting on shows with these for family and friends and then moved on to handmade Chinese string puppets. Learning mostly from books and personal experience, he explains, “I was already spending most of my free time carving puppets and putting on shows, so I hardly noticed the change from students to full-time professional puppeteer.”The puppets are designed specifically for each show, which is extremely time consuming. According to Roberts, “Sometimes what you expect and what you actually create in the end are two very different things. I’ve made some of my best puppets ‘accidentally’.”When most people hear the word “puppetry”, they more than likely think of a way of keeping children entertained at birthday parties. Certainly the subject matter will be expected to belight-hearted rather than serious. However, Roberts wants to point out that puppets convey serious messages sometimes.” he says.11．What do we know about puppetry in the first paragraph?A．It is a most popular form of entertainment.B．It cannot give people pleasure any more.C．It was first brought to life by Peter Roberts.D．Its value as an art form is not fully recognized.12．In Roberts’ eyes, his puppet shows .A．usually attract people full of humorB．are most something for old aged audienceC．display something meaningful for different peopleD．involve hard work and great intelligence13．Roberts developed an interest in puppets because of .A．the puppet show books B．his university majorC．a Christmas gift D．some Chinese string puppets14．What does Roberts want people to think of puppet theatre?A．It is just a kind of entertainment for kids.B．It can be educational as well as entertaining.C．It is only a kind of serious art form.D．It should be kept light-hearted.A family is a collection of people who share the same genes but cannot agree on a place to pull over for lunch. Ed and I, plus his parents and sister Doris and eight-year-old niece Alisha, are on a road trip to Yosemite. Ed wants Subway, I want. In-N-Out Burger, Doris wants Sonic. In the end, we compromise on McDonald’s, where Alisha will get an action figure.It’s a three-hour drive to Yosemite, bu t we’re taking a little longer, as we’re working in a tour of Highway 80’s public restrooms. As the saying goes, “Not one bladder（膀胱）empties but another fills.” Many of these restrooms belong to gas stations. I prefer them to the high-tech ones on planes.We get back on the road. Ed is driving now. When all the tabloids（小报）have been read, the travel has grown tedious and anyone unde r age 12 asks “Are we there yet?” at ever-shortening internals. Just outside Manteca, California, we stop for coffee. At a Starbucks checkout, Ed buys a CD of Joni Mitchell’s favorite musical picks. The hope is that it will have a calming effect.As we pull back onto the highway, it starts to pour. Then something amazing happens. As we climb the mountain, the rain turns to snow. The pines are spotted with white. We’re struck dumb（说不出话）by the scene outside. For a solid 15 minutes, everyone forgets about their bladder, their blood sugar and the temperature. Alisha has never seen snow, so we pull over to make snowmen and catch snowflakes on our tongues. Then Ed realizes we need tire chains, and we have to turn back and drive 30miles to Oakhurst. “Good,” says Doris. “There was a very nice restroom there.”15．Where does the family have lunch?A．At Sonic.B．At Subway.C．At McDonald’s.D．At In-N-Out Burger.16．Why does the family spend so much time going to Yosemite?A．They stop a few times for gas.B．They go to the toilet frequently.C．They are affected by the bad weather.D．They need to rest and refresh themselves. 17．What does the underlined word “tedious” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Boring B．Difficult.C．Educational.D．Comfortable.18．How does the family feel when it snows?A．Sorry.B．Excited.C．Worried.D．Relaxed.As we know, at present many students in many countries including China are learning English. Some of these students are small children. Others are teenagers. Many are adults. Some learn at school, others by themselves. A few learn English by learning the language over the radio, on TV, or in film. One must work hard to learn another language besides one’s native langu age.Why do all these people want to learn English? It is difficult to answer this question. Many boys and girls learn English at school because it is one of their subjects required for study. They study their own language and maths and English: Some people learn it because it is useful for their work. Many people learn English for their work. Many people learn English for their higher studies, because at college or university some of their books are in English. Other people learn English because they want to read newspapers or magazines in English.Therefore, as a middle school student, you must work harder at English. It is a good habit to read English aloud and practise speaking English every day. It is important to learn some useful expressions by heart. If you have a good knowledge of English, you will get a good future. 19．People learn English_________.A．not all in the same way B．over the radioC．on TV D．at school20．From this passage we know that_________.A．we can learn English easilyB．English is very difficult to learnC．English is learned by all the people in the worldD．English is a useful language, so one must work hard to learn it21．Which of the following is right?A．We don’t need to learn any foreign languages.B．We can do well in all our work without English.C．English is the most important subject in schools.D．We should learn English because we need to face the world.Recently, as I watched my son Nathan play basketball for his school team, I was feeling sorry for myself and for him. His team was facing adversity(困境) on the court, trailing for three quarters of the game. As for me, I had just been dismissed from my job.As I watched what my son was experiencing, I recalled the events earlier in the day—packing up everything in a box and saying goodbye to my colleagues. During the drive home, I kept telling myself that I will find work again—I am confident in my experience and abilities, but self-doubt was still sticking its foot in the door.The game entered the fourth quarter with Nathan’s team still trailing. I saw the determination on his back to not only tie the game, but then go ahead by three points. Then, a player from the other team made an unbelievable shot to tie the game up again. With a tie game and seconds on the clock, Nathan found himself with the ball and with skill and confidence, he made the basket with a defender hanging all over him. The other player was called for a foul(犯规).As Nathan stood preparing for a shot that would put his team up by three points, I saw the focus and determination on his face, with no room for self-doubt. After he made the free throw, his team managed to stop the other team from scoring, winning the game and moving on to the finals.As I sat there, my heart bursting with pride, it dawned on me. I had taught him perseverance(毅力) in the face of adversity, and he had just taught me the same lesson. That brief moment ofself-doubt and feeling sorry for myself was blown away by the actions of my son on the basketball court. He will play in the finals, but it doesn’t matter if he w ins or loses. At this moment, we both won.22．We can learn from the text that ________.A．I lost my job for lack of experience and abilities.B．Nathans team won a narrow victory in the basketball game.C．I was proud of Nathan because he won the game in the finals.D．Nathan had never doubted himself whenever he was in trouble.23．The underlined word “trailing” in the first paragraph probably means ________.A．losing B．falling behindC．being defeated D．winning24．What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．My son would win in the finals and I would find a job soon.B．I had once taught my son face to face that we should never give up.C．It was my encouragement and help that made my son win the game.D．I would become more confident about my future after this experience.25．What is the best title for the text?A．An Inspiring Game B．A Moment of Self-doubtC．Lesson from My Son D．An Unforgettable ExperienceUniversity Room RegulationsApproved and Prohibited ItemsThe following items are approved for use in residential(住宿的)rooms: electric blankets, hair dryers, personal computers, radios, televisions and DVD players.

Whatever you think about London, visiting as a tourist is very different from living there. Each part of London has its own character. Some parts are richer than others, or more industrial, or have better housing.Let’s start with the centre, the “Square Mile”. This is the oldest part of London. In the past, it was where all financial business was done. Not many people live here, but 300,000 people work here every day.Moving west, we come to the West End. This busy shopping and entertainment district is bursting with things to do. Take a walk down Oxford Street, and you will see big department stores like Selfridges and Harrods. Rents here are very high; a one-bedroom apartment may cost around 1,000 pounds a week. Further away is West London. This area is more residential(住宅的)and very fashionable.The East End contains the Port of London, which historically is where many immigrants first arrived. Waves of French, Belgians, Jews, Pakistanis and Bangladeshis have all lived here. This makes the culture of this area very various. London won the bid to hold the Olympics in 2012, so many Londoners hope that housing, education and employment for many people in this area will improve.It is difficult to be general about London. The city is made up of a " collection of villages”, each area with its own character and community. Put them all together, and you have London, an international capital.36．Which of the following descriptions about Square Mile is NOT true?A．It is the oldest part of London.B．It is the center of London.C．All financial business was once done there.D．300, 000 people live there.37．Tom, an American, wants to go shopping in London.

The International Federation of Competitive Eating (IFOCE) holds events for competitive eating all around the world. One of the most popular contests (竞赛) is held every 4th of July on Coney Island in New York. Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest started in 1916 and the event has been dominated (占据优势) by Takeru Kobayashi. The Japanese competitor set his first record in 2001, when he ate 50 hot dogs in 12 minutes and has won the contest six years in a row.The main types of food eaten in the contests are fast food. Hot dogs, chicken wings, pickles, corndogs and pizza are main foods of the contests. The contests usually last from around 8 to 12 minutes. Now most of the competitors are men, but there are also women who take part in competitive eating.Being large and overweight isn’t necessarily an advantage in competitive eating. The biggest advantage a competitor can have is the ability to actually stretch (扩张) their stomach. Many competitors will drink plenty of water over a period of time in order to achieve this. Apart from having an unusually stretchable stomach, another important thing seems to be hand to mouth speed.The IFOCE has very strict safety guidelines laid out regarding competitive eating. Competitions must take place in a controlled area and only competitors over the age of 18 are allowed to enter. They also advise against any type of home training. There has been much talk regarding the inclusion of competitive eating as an Olympic sport. Although the IFOCE has talkedabout that with the Olympic committee, it seems that they will not agree to it at present. 40．Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest _____.A．has a history of over 200 yearsB．takes place once a year in JapanC．is becoming less popular than beforeD．has made Takeru Kobayashi famous41．What do we know about eating contests?A．Fast food is the only type of food.B．They usually last ten minutes or so.C．Only men are allowed to enter a contest.D．They are open to competitors of all ages.42．What is the third paragraph mainly about?A．How to win an eating contest.B．The history of competitive eating.C．Safety guidelines from the IFOCE.D．The disadvantages of eating too much.43．What’s the main purpos e of the text?A．To report.B．To advertise.C．To introduce.D．To warn.The year before the first modern Olympic Games，Greece invited China to send a team.But the Qing government(政府)didn’t send any athletes to the Games.China did not take part in the Olympics until the 10th Games，held in Los Angeles in 1932.There，Liu Changchun took part in the men’s 100­metre and 200­metre races.He did not win any medals.China won her first gold medal at the 23rd Olympics in Los Angeles in 1984，when Xu Haifeng won the men’s free shooting event.China came in fourth with 15 gold medals in all.At the 2000 Olympics in Sydney，Australia，China won 28 gold medals，entering the top three of the medal chart for the first time.September 22nd,2000 was named China Day because China won six gold，three silver and one bronze medals that day.In 2004，the 28th Olympic Games were held in Athens，Greece.Two hundred and two countries took part in the Games.China got the second place with thirty-two gold，seventeen silver andfourteen bronze medals.We all know that in 2008，the Olympic Games were held in Beijing，where China won the first place.44．When was China first invited to the Olympics?A．In Tang Dynasty(朝代)．B．In Song Dynasty.C．In Ming Dynasty.D．In Qing Dynasty.45．Which Olympics did China take part in?A．The tenth Olympics.B．The eighth Olympics.C．The fifth Olympics.D．The first Olympics.46．Who won the first gold medal for China in the Olympics?A．Liu Changchun.B．Xu Haifeng.C．Zhuang Yong.D．Liu Xiang.47．How many medals did China win at the 28th Olympics?A．Thirty-two.B．Seventeen.C．Fourteen.D．Sixty-three.48．In 2008 China hosted________Olympic Games.A．the 28th Winter B．the 28th SummerC．the 29th Winter D．the 29th SummerForeign visitors to the UK might be disappointed when they learn that not everyone there speaks like Harry Potter and his friends. Usually, there’s an assumption by many non-Brits that everyone in Britain speaks with what’s known as a Received Pronunciation (RP, 标准发音) accent, also called “the Queen’s English”. However, while many people do talk this way, most Britons speak in their own regional accents.Scouse, Glaswegian and Black Country – from Liverpool, Glasgow and the West Midlands – are just three of the countless non-RP accents that British people speak with. There are even differences in accents between towns or cities just 30 kilometers apart. What is even more disappointing is that not speaking in a RP accent may mean a British person is judged and even treated differently in their everyday life.In a 2015 study by The University of South Wales, videos of people reading a passage in three。

高中阅读理解专项训练附答案解析1篇It’s hard to avoid looking like a fool on April Fool’s Day. On April 1 each year, people play tricks on each other. These tricks are usually silly rather than mean. Classmates sometimes tie each other’s shoelaces to their chairs. Teachers might hand out an impossibly difficult surprise test that scares students before they realise it’s only a joke. Newspapers announce fake contests (such as “Win an elephant!”) and report on fake stories (like “UFO” lands in New York City).Forget gifts, songs and special foods-those are for the other holidays of the year. On April Fool’s Day, the only tradition is to laugh (and maybe to cause a little bit of trouble).One April Fool’s Day, when I was in high school, a group of students in my class played a very clever and funny trick on the teachers. They bought some chickens and set them free in our school cafeteria. The chickens ran all round the school, in and out of classrooms and under our feet. Feathers were flying everywhere.Teachers began running after the chickens, trying to catch them. Finally, they caught four of them. But the chickens were wearing numbered tags around their necks, and the teachers discovered that they had only caught chickens NO. 1, 2, 3, and 5. Where was chicken No. 4?The te achers looked and looked. They couldn’t find another chicken. After a few hours, they realised that the students had played another joke on them: There were only four chickens in the first place! They’d been tricked by the numbers on the chickens.It’s been a long time since I was in high school, but that April Fool’s Day remains one of my favourite memories from those years.1．What can we infer from the first paragraph on April Fool’s Day?A．Everyone is hard to avoid being fooled on April Fool’s Day.B．Students play jokes on teachers on April Fool’s Day.C．Teachers play tricks on students on April Fool’s Day.D．Newspapers often cheat people.2．Why did students set chickens free?A．They wanted to let chickens free. B．They wanted to let chickens run all round the school.C．They wanted to see feathers flying. D．They wanted to play a trick on the teachers. 3．How many jokes did the students play on the teachers?A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four.【答案】1．A2．D3．B【分析】这是一篇记叙文。
