The carmaker has tested a special system which uses a camera to film drivers to monitor their facial expressions.If the system detects (探测)a driver who is stressed, it can automatically turn on calming mood lighting. The car could respond to a driver who was tired by lowering the car’s temperature, or by beginning to play a specific playlist of music. The carmaker has also developed headrest cameras to monitor the facial expressions of passengers. If the cameras detect sleepiness, then the car can automatically dim (使变暗) the passenger lighting to help people go to sleep. Jaguar Land Rover said that the system also uses artificial intelligence to learn people’s preferences, so that it could automatically adjust a car’s settings based on their previous interactions with the car.Dr Steve Iley, Jaguar Land Rover chief medical officer, said, “As we move towards a self-driving future, the focus for us remains as much on the driver as it ever has.”“By considering the overall behavior of drivers, and using much of what we’ve learned from the advances in research around personal well-being over the last 10 or 15 years, we can make sure our customers remain comfortable, involved and alert behind the wheel in all driving situations, even motorway journeys.”The system is still being developed and is not yet available in cars, Jaguar Land Rover said.In 2015, the company released a similar system which monitors drivers to detect signs of sleepiness. The system is now in use in Jaguar cars, and alerts drivers when they become too sleepy.28. What is Jaguar Land Rover’s new invention?A. An automatically adjusted headrest.B. An intelligent alarm system.C. A mood-detection system.D. A self-driving car.29. How is Paragraph 2 developed?A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following time order.D.

It should focus greatly on passengers.31. What is the present situation of the new invention?A. It has already been banned.B. It is doubted by customers.C. It still needs to be improved.D. It is widely used in Jaguar cars.第二节七选五(共5小题;每小题5分,满分25分)Stress-eating happens when you’re not hungry and eating more than necessary to be full. Often, we’re piling on the junk food.

Citizens of prosperous, essentially middle class republics—whether ancient Romans, 17th century Dutch people, or 19th century Americans—have always shown a marked taste for portraiture. Starting in the late eighteenth century, the United States contained increasing numbers of such people, and of the artists who could meet their demands.The earliest American folk art portraits come, not surprisingly, from New England—especially Connecticut and Massachusetts—for this was a wealthy and populous region and the center of a strong craft tradition. Within a few decades after the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, the population was pushing westward, and portrait painters could be found at work in western New York, Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois, and Missouri.Midway through its first century as a nation, the United States' population had increased roughly five times, and eleven new states had been added to the original thirteen. During these years the demand for portraits grew and grew, eventually to be satisfied by the camera. In 1839 the photograph takenby an early photographic process was introduced to America, announcing the age of photography, and within a generation the new invention put an end to the popularity of painted portraits. Once again an original portrait became a luxury(奢侈品),commissioned by the wealthy and executed(执行)by the professional.But in the time of greatest prosperity of portrait painting—from the late 18th century until the 1850's—anyone with small amount of artistic ability could become a limner,as such a portraitist was called. Local craftspeople—sign, coach, and house painters —began to paint portraits as a profitable sideline(副业);sometimes as talented man or woman who began by sketching family members gained a local reputation and was besieged(包围)with requests for portraits; artists found it worth their whole to pack their paints, canvases, and brushes and to travel the countryside, often combining house decorating with portrait painting.36.In Paragraph 1 the author mentions 17th century Dutch people as an example of a group that________.A.consisted mainly of selftaught artistsB.appreciated portraitsC.influenced American folk artD.had little time for the arts37.According to the passage, where were many of the first American folk art portraits painted?A.In western New York.B.In Illinois and Missouri.C.In Connecticut and Massachusetts.D.In Ohio.38.How much did the population of the United States increase in the first fifty years following independence?A.It became three times larger.B.It became five times larger.C.It became eleven times larger.D.It became thirteen times larger.39.According to the passage, which of the following contributed to a decline in the demand for painted portraits?A.The lack of a strong craft tradition.B.The westward immigration of many painters.C.The growing preference for landscape paintings.D.The invention of the camera.40.The author implies that most limners________.A.received instruction from travelling teachersB.were womenC.were from wealthy familiesD.had no formal art trainingBTwo studies are suggesting that some overweight people do not face an increased risk of developing heart disease. Researchers also found that some individuals of normalbody weight have an increased risk of the disease.Being overweight does increase your risk of medical problems, but the studies found that not all heavy people are less healthy than thin people.In one study, American researchers examined medical records from over 5000 men and women. Each person had taken part in a separate study from 1999 to . The searchers found that about 51% of them were overweight or obese. About 32% were obese, but considered metabolically(关于新陈代谢的)healthy. This means they had no evidence of problems in tests for high blood pressure or other factors linked to heart disease. However, more than 23% of people who were at a healthy weight were unhealthy in two or more aspects Judith WylieRosett helped carry out the American study. She says the finding show that all obese person can still be healthy. She believes that having body fat is not as important as where the fat is found on body. It's reported that twothir ds of Americans are considered overweight or obese.A second study is suggesting that fat in the liver(肝)may be an important health risk. Norbert Stefan and his team closely examined 314 people.They measured how much body fat each person had, and where it was on the body. To do this ,they used medical imaging tests. They discovered that obese people could have healthy hearts. Their results suggest that fat in the liver is more dangerous than fat in other areas. The results of both studies were published recently in the Archives of Internal Medicine.Professor WylieRosett says the findings don't mean that people shouldn't be concerned about obesity. Experts say there are several diseases linked to obesity that make it more dangerous to be fat than thin. They say people should see their doctor to learn what health risks they may be facing and what behaviours should be changed to improve health.41.What was found in 23% of the healthy people examined?A.No factors linked to heart disease.B.They were unhealthy in two or more aspects.C.High blood pressure.D.No evidence of problems.42.Professor WylieRosett agrees that people should________.A.avoid becoming obeseB.not worry about becoming obeseC.worry about becoming thinD.not be afraid of several diseases43.The underlined word“obese〞in the third paragraph probably means “________〞.A.being too thin B.being healthyC.being too fat D.being unhealthy44.The text is mainly about evidence that some people can___ _____.A.be both fat and healthyB.develop heart diseaseC.increase weightD.have too much fat in the liver11、B12、D13、C14、A15、B16、B17、B18、A19、C20、D21、B22、D23、C24、A25、D26、A27、C28、B29、D43、C44、 A。

Pushed to the limit by the fast pace of life (生活的步伐)? Frightened by the possible war? Well, you're not alone. Men and women in France are seeking relief using the world's best medicine — laughter.In the past year more than 25 laughter clubs have been set up across the country. People of all ages go to release their stress(释放压力) with an hour of group laughs. "People telephoned me and said they have forgotten what it is to laugh. They want to find a place where they can escape all their problems for a while. So they come," said 40-year-old Jocelyne Le Moan. She usually takes a class of around 60 people through a series of laughter techniques.Her pupils range from teenagers to 70 year olds, but most are middle-aged white collars (白领) seeking 60 minutes of relaxation (放松) at the end of a busy day.Le Moan takes them through the "lion laugh" and the "laugh contest", where participants approach(接近) each other in different ways. And instead of talking, theybreak into fits of laughter. At the end there are 15 minutes of "meditation" (沉思), when they lie on their backs and let the laughs burst out of their mouths."I love it. It's an experience that has changed my life. Through it I rediscovered the child's laugh inside me," said Romain Jouffroy, 24. "US President George W. Bush should give it a try. He has lost his laugh," she joked.Like Jouffroy, many laughter-club members find themselves changed into children again, and why not? The average preschooler laughs up to 400 times a day. The average adult (成年人) only a sad seven to 15.The physical benefits of laughter are already well-recognized. Doctors say the act of laughing releases good chemicals into the blood-stream, while the quick breathing that accompanies (伴随) it helps massage (按摩) the digestive organs (消化器官) and strengthens the heart."A full hour is like having your insides go jogging(慢跑)! One finishes out of breath, but feels revitalized (产生新的活力). And on top of that, you've had a laugh," said doctor Alexis d'Estaing.And many participants in Paris also emphasize the psychological(心理上的) benefits. They believe that laughter is a way of making oneself feel more confident."Maybe it is because we are surrounded by so many troubles that we feel the need to keep laughing," said Anne Maurigiano, a 29-year-old filmmaker.51.What is the article mainly about?A. In France many people are surrounded by so many troubles that they feel the need to keep laughing.B. Many laughter clubs have been set up across France.C. People in France enjoy laughing in laughter clubs.D. People in France get relaxation through group laughs.52. From the passage, we can see Le Moan is ______.A. a member of a laughter club.B. a psychiatrist(精神科医生).C. a teacher in the club.D. a doctor.53. From Romain Jouffroy’s joke about President Bush, we can infer she probably ______ him.A. hatesB. cares forC. cares aboutD. pities54. In the last but two paragraphs (倒数第三段),the sentence: “A ful l hour is like having your insides go jogging. One finishes out of breath but revitalized,” means ______.A. Laughing for one hour is like exercising. You feel both tired and refreshed at the same time.B. Laughing makes your stomach move up and down. It is really exciting.C. After laughing for one hour, you will find it hard to breathe.D. Laughing for one hour is both tiring and refreshing.55. What does “on top of that” in the last but two paragraphs (倒数第三段) mean?A. Besides.B. On the top of tiredness.C. Above all.D. On the top of your energy.IV. 短文改错(共10小题,满分10分)One afternoon , Tommy was on his way home from the school. 56. _When he was passing by Mr. All’s house , he happened see thick smoke 57. _ coming out of the window , which made him frightening .

They 37 that cities will become more and more crowded.38 the number of people increases, there will be less space for each person. This39 will cause other problems -- more crimes, dirtier streets, and worse problems with traffic 40 we have now. How will people find enough drinking water, energy (such as gas and electricity), and housing? 41 life will be hard, people who live in cities will worry more, and they may become sick. 42 these reasons, some say that nobody will want to live in urban areas.How can we 43 such problems as overcrowding, crime, and traffic? In some cities, thousands of people are already 44 in the streets because there is so little suitable housing — and because 45 are so high. The crime rate isn’t going down.46 , it is 47 so fast that many people are afraid to go out at night. Traffic jams are so bad that cars don’t move at all for several blocks. These 48 problems have been getting worse, not better, so many people see no 49 for the future of the city.However, not all people believe in the horrible 50 for cities of the future. Instead, they feel that they can solve present urban problems and 51 future ones.The disadvantages of any modern city are not unique to that city.52 , all the cities in the world have to solve the problems of traffic jams, crime, housing, energy, drinking water, and overcrowding. Yet many cities have found answers to one or more of these difficulties. Some European cities, such as Stockholm, Sweden, or London, England, have planned communities that 53 people with apartments, jobs, shopping centers, green space, entertainment, and transportation. Many U.S. cities are building their downtown areas. Urban 54 can learn from one another. They can 55 solutions that have been successful in other parts of the world.36.

The town offered a reward of thousand dollars for anyone who would kill the lion.One day an excited hunter came to the town to say that he had killed the mountain lion. As proof that he had killed the right animal, he showed a ball of human hair. He said he had taken the hair from the stomach of the mountain lion.However, another hunter soon showed up to claim (索要) the reward. He too had a ball of human hair that he said he had taken from the dea d lion’s stomach. The town did not know which man to pay. Maybe neither one had killed the right mountain lion. To settle the argument, they decided to turn the whole thing over to Dr. Hausman.Dr. Hausman studied the hair and reported that the second hunter should be paid. The hair in the stomach of the mountain lion he had killed matched the hair of the boy. The whole town was relieved〔感到轻松〕to know for sure that the killer had been found.There are other kinds of detectives who do not wear a uniform, like Hausman, solve endless mysteries every year. There is, for example, the dust detective. Tiny bits of dust stick to your clothes, your fingernails, your hair, or your shoes. They catch in your nose and in your ears. They tell where you have been and what you havedone lately. The dust detective often helps catch a criminal by proving that he has been on the scene of the crime (犯罪现场) .Then there is the wood detective. By studying a piece of wood he can tell what kind of tree the piece of wood came from. He can tell where it was grown, and how old it is. He can even tell you what the weather was like at a certain place the year Columbus landed in America. The growth rings on a tree tell him.56. According to the selection, by studying a piece of wood, a wood detective can tell you ______.A. what the weather was like the year Columbus landed in AmericaB. what the weather was like last year in the mountainC. what the weather was like last month in your hometownD. what kind of tree the piece of wood came from57. Endless mysteries are solved every year by ______.A. detectives who like HausmanB. detectives like HausmanC. other kinds of detectives who like HausmamD. detectives Dr. Hausman likes58. What does the underlined word “they〞 mean?A. Your clothes.B. Your fingernail.C. Tiny bits of dust.D. Your shoes.59. It is implied in the selection that it is most important ______.A. for a detective to prove that a criminal has been on the scene of the crimeB. for a detective to prove that a criminal has not been on the scene of the crimeC. for a criminal to tell the detective what he has done lately.D. for a criminal to show the detective his nose and his earsBEarly in the 16th century men were trying to reach Asia by traveling west from Europe. In order to find Asia they had to find a way past South America. The man who finally found the way from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific was Ferdinand Magellan. Magellan sailed from Seville in August, 1519 with five ships and about 280 men. Fourteen months later, after spending the cold winter on the coast of Patagonia, he discovered the channel which is now called Magellan Strait. In November, 1520, after many months of dangers from rocks and storms, the three remaining ships entered the ocean on the other side of South America.They then continued, hoping to reach Asia. But they did not see any land until they reached the islands off the coast of Asia. Before they arrived at these islands, later known as the Philippines, men were dying of starvation. While they were staying in the Philippines, Magellan was killed in battle. The remaining officers then hadto get back to Spain. They decided to sail round Africa. After many difficulties, one ship with eighteen men sailed into Seville three years after leaving. They were all that remained of Magellan’s expedition. However, their achievement was great. They were the first men to sail round the world.60. The purpose of Magellan’s expedition was to ________.A. sail round the worldB. find a seaway from the Atlantic to the PacificC. make a voyage to AsiaD. carry men to Philippines61.

At the other end, a “mother〞 is described as a woman who puts her home and family first, and if she is tired, she never lets it show.What will other people say? To find out about that, on this Mother’s Day (May 14, 2006), Insparenting. com launches a new survey “What is a mother to you?〞According to the editor of Insparenting , Adwina Jackson, Mother’s Day is a special day for everyone! That is why her team uses this day to honor mothers all over the world by launching a survey about “mother〞. “This survey is also to express thanks or gratitude and to show appreciation for friends, family who are mothers, as well as other important women who have had a mothering influence,〞 said Jackson.Insparenting will publish the answer to “What is a mother to you〞 once responses to its survey have been tabulated (制成表格) from around the world. This survey is for everyone, all age, all gender and all status. All participants in the survey will be added to a special notification list alerting when survey results are published.64. Insparenting. com observes〔庆祝〕Mother’s Day of 2006 by ________.A. sending cards to mothers all over the worldB. launching a theme survey around the worldC. publishing people’s different opinions about “mother〞D. designing cards with praising words on both sides65.

How to Celebrate Mother’sDayC. Making Cards for Mother’s DayD. What Is a Mother to YouDPeople diet to look more attractive. Fish diet to avoid being beaten up, thrownout of their social group, and getting eaten as a result. That is the fascinatingconclusion of the latest research into fish behavior by a team of Australian scientists.The research team have discovered that subordinate (下级的) fish voluntarily (志愿地) diet to avoid challenging their larger competitors. “In studying gobies wenoticed that only the largest two individuals, a male and female, had breeding〔繁殖〕rights within the group,〞explains Marian Wong. “All other group members arenon-breeding females, each being 5-10% smaller than its next largest competitor. Wewanted to find out how they maintain this precise size separation.〞The reason for the size difference was easy to see. Once a subordinate fish growsto within 5-10% of the size of its larger competitor, it causes a fight which usuallyends in the smaller goby being driven away from the group. More often than not (往往, 多半), the evicted fish is then eaten up.It appeared that the smaller fish were keeping themselves small in order to avoid challenging the boss fish. Whether they did so voluntarily, by restraining how muchthey ate, was not clear. The research team decided to do an experiment. They triedto fatten up some of the subordinate gobies to see what happened. To their surprise,the gobies simply refused the extra food they were offered, clearly preferring toremain small and avoid fights, over having a feast.The discovery challenges the traditional scientific view of how boss individualskeep their position in a group. Previously it was thought that large individuals simplyused their weight and size to threaten their subordinates and take more of the foodfor themselves, so keeping their competitors small.While the habits of gobies may seem a little mysterious, Dr. Wong explains that understanding the relationships between boss and subordinate animals is importantto understanding how hierarchical〔等级的〕societies remain stable.The research has proved the fact that voluntary dieting is a habit far fromexclusive (独有的) to humans. “As yet, we lack a complete understanding of how widespread the voluntary reduction of food intake is in nature,〞 the researchers comment. “Data on human dieting suggests that, while humans generally diet to improvehealth or increase attractiveness, rarely does it improve long-term health and malesregularly prefer females that are fatter than the female s’ own ideal.〞68. When a goby grows to within 5-10% of the size of its larger competitor, it_________ .A. faces dangerB. has breeding rightsC. eats its competitorD. leaves the group itself69. The experiment showed that the smaller fish ___________.A. fought over a feastB. went on diet willinglyC. preferred some extra foodD. challenged the boss fish70. What is the text mainly about?A. Fish dieting and human dieting.B. Dieting and health.C. Human dieting.D. Fish dieting.任务型阅读The International Space Station will establish a huge laboratory complex in space, more than four times the size and with almost 60 times the electrical power for experiments. Examples of the types of U.S. research that will be performed aboard the station include:More pure protein crystals may be grown in space than on Earth. Similar experiments have already been conducted on the Space Shuttle. This type of research could lead to the study of possible treatments for cancer, immune system disorders and other diseases.Living cells can be grown in a laboratory environment in space where they are not affected by gravity (引力). Growing cultures for long periods aboard the station will further advance this research. Such cultures can be used to test new treatments for cancer without risking harm to patients.The effects of long-term exposure to reduced gravity on humans will be studied aboard the station. Studies of these effects may lead to a better understanding of the body systems and similar illnesses on Earth and may provide information useful for future space travels.Fluids (液体), flames, metal and other materials will be the subject of basic research on the station. Scientists plan to study this field to create more perfect materials for applications. The study of all of these areas may lead to developments that can develop many industries on Earth.Some experiments aboard the station will take place on the outside of the station. Such outer space experiments can study the space environment and how long-term exposure to space affects materials. This research can help better understand the nature of space, improve spacecraft design and help explain how the universe developed.Observations of the Earth from space help the study of large-scale, long-term changes in the environment of the earth. Studies in this field can increase understanding of the forests, oceans and mountains. The effects of volcanoes, hurricanes and typhoons can be studied. In addition, changes to the Earth that are caused by the human race can be observed.As part of the Commercialization of space research on the station, industries will participate in research by conducting experiments and studies aimed at developing new products and services. The results may benefit those on Earth not only by providing new products as a result, but also by creating new jobs to make the products.单词拼写81.

But which one is the cleverest?”He called his three sons to him. “Here is some money,” he told them, “you must each take one coin to buy something that will fill this room. Anyone who can do this shall have my fortune.”“It is a big room,” said the eldest son.“One coin will not buy very much,” said the second son. But the youngest son said nothing. He stood and thought, and then he smiled, “Come, brothers,” he said, “let us go to the market.” The eldest son bought straw with his coin. But one coin bought only a bit of straw. Even when he had spread it as much as he could, the straw covered only a corner of the room.The second son bought sand with his coin. But one coin bought only a bit of sand. Even when he had spread it as much as he could, the sand covered only half of the floor.“What did you buy?” the eldest son angrily asked the youngest son. “You don't have any straw.”“Yes, what did you buy?” the second son asked angrily. “You don't have any sand.”“I bought this,” said the youngest son.“A candle!” cried his brothers. “What good is a candle?”“Watch”,said the youngest son.He lit the candle, and all at once the room was filled from wall to wall, from ceiling to floor. It was filled with light!“Although you are the youngest, you are indeed the cleverest of my sons,” the old merchant said.And that is how, the old merchant left his fortune to his youngest son, the one who could fill a room with light.36.

One of the biggest is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, Man moved to another place. But this is no longer true. Man is now slowly pollutin g the whole world.Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air.Pollution by carb on dioxide is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. It is true that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That mean s keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in population at the same time.36. Hundreds of years ago, the pollution was _________it is today.A. much easier thanB. as easy asC. as hard asD. much less than37. Our world is becoming much smaller_________.A. because the earth is being polluted day and nightB. because science is developingC. because of the rise in populationD. because the earth is blown away by the wind every year38. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution because_________.A. it does harm to all living things in the worldB. it makes much noiseC. it makes our rivers and lakes dirtyD. it makes us angry more easily39. Which of the following is NOT the possible way to reduce air pollution?A. Stop people from burning coal in the houses and factories in the cityB. Stop putting dirty smoke into the airC. Encourage people to go to work by bike or on foot instead of driving a carD. Don’t throw rubbish into the river.40. Which of the following is NOT true?A. The problem of pollution is not so serious because there are not so many people living on the earth.B. The pollution o f the earth grows as fast as the world’s population does.C. If people could go to work by bike ,it would be helpful against the problem of carbon dioxide.D. Many countries are making rules to fight against pollution.BMotorists who used to listen to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves, after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface.A team from the Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of “melody roads,”which use cars as tuning forks to play music as they travel.The concept works by using grooves(凹槽).They are cut at very specific intervals in the road surface. The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes.Depending on how far apart the grooves are, a car moving over them will produce a series of high or low notes, and designers are able to create a distinct tune.Paten documents for the design describe it as notches “formed in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melody-like tones”.There are three musical strips in central and northern Japan—one of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song. Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda. He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer before driv ing over them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tones.The optimal speed for melody road is 44kph,but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound.“You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well,”wrote one Japanese blogger.“Driving too fast will sound like playing fast forward, while driving around 12mph[20km/h]has a slow-motion effect, making you almost car-sick.”41. According to the passage, melody roads use to create different notes.A. carsB. groovesC. spaces between intervalsD. bulldozers42. We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes is depended on .A. how far the grooves areB. how big the grooves areC. the number of the groovesD. the speed of the car43.The underlined word “optimal” in the passage might mean .A. fastestB. possibleC. bestD. suitable44.In order to hear the music well, you have to .A. drive very fastB. drive slowlyC. open the windows wideD. keep the windows closed45.What’s the best title of the passage?A. A New Type of MusicB. Melody Roads in JapanC. A Musical Road SurfaceD. A New Invention in JCCrossroads International1. How does Crossroads work?Crossroads is a resource network. We take goods Hong Kong doesn’t want and give them to people who badly need them. We collect those goods and give them out in the welfare arena in Hong Kong, Mainland China, elsewhere in Asia, Eastern Europe and Africa. 462. Who do we help?47 They are grass-root groups who have seen a need and tried to meet it. They can’t get the job done without back-up, though, so our task is to help them do their task. Our warehouse is full of goods, from computers to high chairs, clothing to books, stationery to medical provision, cupboards to dining sets. They se nd us a list of their needs and we try to match it with the resource we have in stock.3. 48Crossroads itself also operates on a low budget. We do not buy the goods we send. They are donated. 49 Nobody in our organization receives a salary. Even our full-time staff work on a voluntary basis.Those that donate goods and services:●Factories●Manufacturers●Hospitals●Hotels●Educational Institutions●Householders●Transport Compani es ●Offices●Other Charities50 While we receive large quantities of goods and there is never a short supply of requests for them, we are always in need of hands to help sort and prepare them for shipping.A. One resource that we are always in need of is people.B. So Crossroads is just that: a Crossroads between need and resource.C. What can I do?D. The welfare agencies we help do not run on large budgets.E. How do we operate?F. All volunteer work is done at our warehouse.G. Similarly, rather than raising funds for freight (货运), we ask transportcompanies to donate their services.四、短文改错(共10小题, 每小题1分,满分10分)假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌的以下作文。

高二周练英语试题第一部分:阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AMuch has been written about body language during a job interview. Experts from across many fields are full of advice on just how to present your best performance in an interview using conscious (自觉的) body language choices. While many of these experts say there is a “secret” system for making the most of an interview, the reality is that most of them focus on a few general types of behavior that have the greatest effect during a job interview.Entering the interview location —Your walk should be active and confident. Keep your shoulders straight, head up, and make eye contact with the people around you. Maintain (保持) an active facial expression and be confident when shaking hands and greeting people to whom you are introduced.During the interview —Sit in a straight and attentive posture. Never let your shoulders drop or your head hang down, but rather keep your head up and make eye contact with the interviewers. Don’t play with any papers or notes you have in front of you, and don’t lean (倚靠) your arms heavily on the table. Keep your body position open and make eye contact while listening to and answering questions.Leaving the interview location—No matter how you feel about your performance during the interview, carry yourself with confidence till you leave the interview location. Be confident when shaking hands and making eye contact as you say goodbye, and keep your body posture straight as you walk all the way to your car.Remember, the more you make active and confident body language a part of your daily life, the more it becomes a habit that follows you wherever you go.1. We can learn from the text that the “secret” system mainly refers to ______.A. body languageB. habitsC. language skillsD. advice2. During the interview, which of the following is NOT mentioned?A. Eye contact.B. Clothing style.C. Sitting posture.D. Facial expression.3. What’s the purpose of the text?A. To show the general steps of an interview.B. To explain the meaning of body language.C. To persuade people to use more body language.D. To give advice on how to carry yourself in an interview.4. It can be inferred from the text that ______.A. knowledge plays a key role in an interviewB. active body language helps a lot in an interviewC. advice from experts makes a good result in an interviewD. communication skills are necessary for a good interviewBI was an introvert (性格内向的人) by nature. For as long as I remember, showinga sincere smile when meeting someone had never been easy. When meeting people, instead of being excited, I often felt upset or self-disturbed.But we all know having friends is important. The more friends you have, the more opportunities you get, no matter whether it’s a job opportunity, a romanticrelationship, or a business partner. So a smile is important to making others feel comfortable. Mother Teresa said, “Every time you smile at someone, it is a n action of love, a gift to that person and a beautiful thing.”The smile I’m talking about is not to make a face to someone. I’m talking about those wide smiles you make when meeting old friends. So I’ve discovered a trick. I call this technique “Oh, it’s Jamie!” When I meet someone, I imagine him as an old friend of mine called Jamie. He was my first friend when we were still kids. It’s no secret why my smile is as wide as I can possibly make.And the best part, whenever you’re friendly to others, they are friendly in return. You’re not hearing this from me. A research which was done early by scientists actually backs (支持) this claim. So do remember to give it a try.5. According to the author, showing a sincere smile is ______.A. an easy thingB. to make a faceC. to be humorousD. very difficult6. From the text, we can learn that a few years ago the author ______.A. was an easy-going young manB. was really hard to deal withC. was always ready to be aloneD. liked making a lot of friends7. What is the key to the author’s trick?A. Supposing someone is your old friend.B. Making more friends when you were young.C. Making friends with someone like Jamie.D. Not forgetting the friends you first made.8. The author writes the text mainly to tell readers ______.A. how he gets successB. to show their perfect smileC. what a sincere smile isD. how to make friendsCRainy days may ruin some cheerful plans for outdoor activities, but it doesn’t have to be boring inside. On the next rainy day, try some of these ideas for a day full of fun: Tell stories. You might tell old stories you heard when you were growing up, or you might make up some really fascinating stories just for the kids. Let them all have a turn at making up stories of their own.Play in the kitchen. Let the kids help you cook a pizza or maybe some cookies. Give them a chance to help you in the kitchen and make something delicious. Just make sure they remember that part of cooking is cleaning up.Write a story together.Let the kids come up with a story of their own. They might want to write stories individually and then read them aloud to others, or they might want to get together and write a story together.Play “let’s pretend” games. Let the kids pretend to be teachers, doctors, nurses or policemen. Let them dress up in whatever you may have. Then let them play the roles. You might even volunteer to be the student or the patient.Have a party.Let the kids pick out some music and dance around the room. Then,let them fall all over themselves with laughter, when you show them how it was done when you were a kid.Use these ideas to get you started, and the kids may actually start wishing for morerainy days.9. From the text we can know ______.A. what we can do to make rainy days interestingB. why rainy days are boringC. the children never like rainy daysD. the ways to play games with children10. The children will feel ___ when you try the ideas mentioned in the text on rainy days.A. sadB. happyC. tiredD. bored11. You may need some special clothes when ______.A. in the kitchenB. telling storiesC. playing “let’s pretend” gamesD. making up stories12. When playing in the kitchen, the children should ______.A. make more pizzasB. clean the kitchen after cookingC. cook food on their ownD. do anything they want toDAccepting and understanding other cultures is something that everyone needs to learn. Think of the world as a giant pizza. Without all the different vegetables, cheeses and meats, all you get is a tasteless pizza crust (面包皮). But when you put them all together, you get something ve ry interesting, tasty, and good. So let’s break down the walls between cultures.One way to help break down the walls between us is to understand that many of our ancestors may come from the same place. Do you know what cultures you are from? Are you part Irish or mostly German? Did your grandparents or great-grandparents immigrate (移民) to your country?There is really no way to be completely sure where your first ancestors came from, but some scientists think that all people came from Africa. So how did they get all over the world? Well, back then there was a land bridge connecting Asia and North America, so they walked to Asia, Europe, and the Americas! Over time, the land bridge split up, and there was no way for people like Columbus to know that the Americas existed. Isn’t it cool thinking that maybe we’re all from the same contin ent? Even though we all came from the same place, now there are differences in the way we look depending on where our recent ancestors came from and who our parents are. If you find out where your parents and grandparents came from, you just might discover that you are from the same culture that you might be trying to avoid!63. The author tries to prove that ______.A. we should respect people from other culturesB. all the continents were connected a long time agoC. Columbus found the new continentD. the land bridge did exist64. The author takes a pizza for example in order to show that ______.A. we need different materials to make a pizzaB. the differences of cultures make our world beautifulC. people from different cultures all like eating pizzaD. a pizza will be tasteless without vegetables65. What does the text mainly talk about?A. How to make a pizza.B. How to break down the walls between us.C. How to understand and accept other cultures.D. Where our ancestors came from.第二节:七选五填空(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I was so seriously injured that I was in a coma for more than two months at Prince Georges Hospital.I suffered a lot from the experience of dying eight times during my coma and I couldn’t open my mouth to talk or to communicate when I eventually came around. At that time, it seemed that walking was never going to happen again due to all the extreme injuries. Just like my body, my dreams were completely destroyed. But I was not going to let my injuries stop me from realizing my dreams.After receiving, a total of 15 operations and 36 blood transfusions, I had to make every great effort to learn to talk, eat, walk, shower, and live on my own again. When I was out of hospital, I still had to go to outpatient therapy in Waldorf, Maryland. After I spent a few months in a wheelchair, I took baby steps to walk in my own. It was a miracle that I was able to walk again, but I still wanted to prove that I could not only walk, but also run. When it came true, I wanted to get back into the pool again. After having a few lung tests, I was able to go in a pool a little bit each week. After a few months of swim training, I began my freshman year at St. Mary’s College of Maryland and then became a proud member of the swim team.By telling my story, I want to make a positive influence on the world. I am just trying to live every day to the fullest and inspire other people never to give up their dreams no matter how bad the situation is to them. I remember when I was still in my hospital bed, I would have my mom and dad push me round in my wheelchair to the other rooms to see the other rooms to see other patients and chat with them and their family members. I wanted to let them know that everything was going to be okay. Somehow, things wouldwork out of the best.31.

高中英语周练第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)ADear Santa,What do I ask this year? I have read each ad carefully in my mailbox, and looked through the colorful ads in the newspaper. There are so many lovely things, but I need nothing.I realize this as I walk up the hill on my strong legs. I can hear the air fill my lungs. I feel the cold on my cheeks. I smell the smoke of the fire that warms my home. I see the snow-covered mountains and the small river dotted with fat geese.I need nothing. There are people who love me. There are people who forgive my sometimes bad temper and who touch me with loving hands. There are neighbors who smile in the store. There are shopkeepers who tolerate me when I don‟t have enough money. There are kind faces in public places.There is a fat cat who often slides into my garage. Dogs and other cats share my hearth (炉床); I love to feel their fur with my feet. There are hawks that teach their young how to fly, right there behind my house. There are deer that wander into my yard and smell apples.Green beans, tomatoes, peas and carrots color my kitchen. And a full bucket (桶) of hand tools and neatly dried seeds promise next year‟s rich harvest. I need nothing.Today I discovered a hole in my jeans. I felt the December air flow down my leg. How powerful the hand is that sweeps the wind along the mountains! Santa, dear old soul, just give me another day like this one in my life.1. The author has read each ad in his mailbox in order to .A. find something as a present for himselfB. find something as a present for his kidsC. get the news about vegetable pricesD. get the news about pet animals2.

We can learn from the text that the author .A. is very old and in bad healthB. lives alone and has few friendsC. is too poor to pay for good clothesD. may live close to mountains and riversBI want to become a journalist and I wonder what makes a good journalist. In order to find the answer, I talked to Mary Harte who worked with the BBC for over 20 years as a journalist.“You‟ve got to have the interest. If you don‟t like it, you will not persist because journalism is a very dif ficult job,” Mary said.Out of experience Mary told me that it was very important for a journalist to watch and talk to people. She said, “What a journalist does is painting a little picture of a story. The information has to be accurate. Therefore, you re ally have to be watching and listening.”Mary also emphasized(强调) the importance of experience. “It is important to collect as many skills as possible to be able to stand out of the crowd. A lot of the skills come from experience, so you won‟t walk in th e street and be a good journalist. You will be a good journalist because you‟ve done it long enough,” she said.Mary said, “You will not get a job handed to you. You will have to be prepared to put in long hours; you will have to be prepared to ring people, and you will have to be prepared to have no money for quite a while. In a word, you will have to work hard for it. Then it gets to the stage where you love your job and you think …Why is somebody paying me to do something that I really love?‟”From what an experienced journalist said, I learn that it is not just about the skills, but also the passion required to work in the field of journalism.4. The underlined part “not persist” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “”.A. stay upB. stand outC. give upD. keep up5.

Bathing in mud from the Volcan de Lodo El Totumo can be best described as a primal (原始的) experience. The volcano is small, looking more like a little hill. If you reach the very top, you‟ll discover gray mud. It‟s believed that the mud has a curing effect in cleaning your skin.La Tomatina, SpainIt‟s possibly the most famous food fight in the world. So if you think tomatoes are only for salads, you are on a wrong track. In a small Spanishvillage named Bunol, on the last Wednesday of August every year, trucks dump(倾倒) about 120 tons of tomatoes in the streets of the town and tomato juice flows from there.El Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), MexicoIn early November each year Mexicans gather in cemeteries(墓地) to hold a c elebration. That‟s a celebration of the dead. People smoke cigars and eat festive foods to show life goes on as they honor those who have died.

Living in a group is something I couldn‟t tolerate. I‟d kill myself before I have to do that.” Many elderly Americans, who can no longer manage on their own, spend their final years in a nursing home. However, the vast majority of seniors would prefer to live in their own homes as long as possible.Theil says he and his wife manage pretty well right now. But the couple can feel their advancing age and realize they will soon need more help with basic household chores, like changing the light bulb at the top of the stairs.m “To change that tube, I have to bring in a stepladder (折梯) and put it pa rtly on the landing and partly on the stairs and climb up,” Theil says. “It‟s frightening.” In the old days, the Theils could ask their children to help them. But those young helpers have grown up and gone. “We have kids and we call them sometimes, but one lives in Munich, Germany, another lives in London and the third lives in New York,” Theil says. “They‟re not going to visit us for a weekend.”So the Theils would like to join a virtual(虚拟的) village, which provides a local network of volunteers helping the elderly people in place. They help seniors with anything from transportation to home repairs and dog walking. The concept came into being in Boston a decade ago and has since grown into a national movement. In most cases, the villages charge a membership (会员) fee from about $100 to more than $1,000 per year. Once you‟re a member, some of the services are free.12.

What can we learn about Theil‟s family?A. The old couple can‟t depend on their kids helping them.B. Their children all live in foreign countries.C. Their children are too busy to go home.D. Theil‟s wife can‟t manage on herself.15.
