After all, this is the 1990s and the idea of children working is just unthinkable. That is, until you are told that they are all pupils of stage schools a nd that the “work” they go off to is to go on the stage in a theatre.Stage schools often act as agencies(代理机构)to supply children for stage and television work. More worthy of the name “stage school” are those few places where children attend full time, with a training for the theatre and a general education.A visit to such schools will leave you in no doubt that the children enjoy themselves. After all, what lively children wouldn't settle for spending only half the day doing ordinary school work, and acting, singing or dancing their way through the other half of the day?Then of course there are times for the children to make a name and make a little money in some big shows. Some stage schools give their children too much professional work at such a young age. But the law is very tight on the amount they can do. Those under 13 are limited to 40 days in the year; those over 13 to 80 days.The schools themselves admit that not all children will be successful in the profession for which they are being trained. So what happens to those who don't ma ke it? While all the leading schools say they place great importance on children getting good study results, the facts seem to suggest this is not always the case.1. People would stop feeling uneasy when realizing that the children they're talking to ________.A. attend a stage schoolB. are going to the theatreC. have got some work to doD. love singing and dancing2. In the writer's opinion, a good stage school should ________.A. prod uce star performersB. help pupils improve their study skillsC. train pupils in language and performing artsD. provide a general education and stage training.3. “Profess ional work” as used in the text means ________.A. ordinary school workB. money-making performancesC. stage training at schoolD. acting, singing or dancing after class4. Which of the following best describes how the writer feels about stage schools?A. He thinks highly of what they have to offer.B. He favors an early start in the training of performing arts.C. He feels uncomfortable about children putting on night shows.D. He doubts the standard of ordinary education they have reached.BPlease, pay attention to difference of free registration and paid premium(额外费用)account.

And indeed, every single senior that day was a star of the once-in-a-lifetime moment—the commencement. Seated, I waited anxiously for the opening address. As a foreign exchange student, I was not able to receive a diploma. However, I still had the wonderful feeling of being part of things. Like the other graduates, I was dressed in marron cap and gown(方帽长袍).Our principal, Mr. Glover, delivered a short, warm greeting. The US national anthem followed and then, hands on chests, a solemn Pledge of Allegiance(对美国的忠孝宣誓).Students who had excelled academically gave farewell speeches. Then came the core (核心) of the commencement. Hundreds of names were announced. Each graduate walked across the stage to receive his or her diploma from the principal. From the different cheers each graduate got, we had the funny sense that it was a kind of competition of who could cheer the loudest.To be honest, the presentation of diplomas got boring. But it wasn't boring for those receiving the diploma: they would treasure the moment the principal placed the sacred brown document in their hands for the rest of their lives.A new page in the book of that person's life had turned. They were glimpsing their futures: futures of challenge, hardship, perhaps loneliness too, which would take all of their courage.8. What's the article mainly about?A. An American high school's graduation ceremony.B. The opening ceremony of a sports meeting.C. A presentation of college diplomas.D. A US college's farewell party.9. Which of the following statements about the author is FALSE?A. She was one of the graduates.B. She was a foreign exchange student.C. She was excited to receive her diploma.D. She felt it great to be at the ceremony.10. From the text, we can conclude that_______.A. a diploma ensures a good jobB. a diploma guarantees a bright futureC. the commencement symbolizes the beginning of a new stage in lifeD. everyone felt excited at the presentation of the diplomaIV 单词填空1.

It's fun to come home. It looks the same. It smells the same. You'll realize what's changed is you. Home is where we can remember pain, love,and some other experiences: We parted here; My parents met here; I won three championships here.If I close my eyes, I can still have a clear picture in mind of my first home.I walk in the door and see a brown sofa surrounding a low glasstop wooden table. To the right of the living room is my first bedroom. It's empty, but it's where my earliest memories are.There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays,and where I cried on Halloween—when I didn't want to wear the skirt my mother made for me. I always liked standing on that table because it made me feel tall and strong. If I sit at this table,I can see my favorite room in the house,my parents' room. It is simple:a brown wooden dresser lines the right side of the wall next to a television and a couple of photos of my grandparents on each side. Their bed is my safe zone. I can jump on it anytime—waking up my parents if I am scared or if I have an important announcement that cannot wait until the morning.I'm lucky because I know my first home still exists. It exists in my mind and heart,on a physical property(住宅) on West 64th street on the western edge of Los Angeles. It is proof I lived, I grew,and I learned.Sometimes when I feel lost, I lie down and shut my eyes, and I go home. I know it's where I'll find my family, my dogs, and my belongings. I purposely leave the window open at night because I know I'll be blamed by Mom. But I don't mind, because I want to hear her say my name, which reminds me I'm home.31.Why does the author call her parents' bed her “safe zone” (Paragraph 3) ?A.It is her favorite place to play.B.Her needs can be satisfied there.C.Her grandparents' photos are lined on each side.D.Her parents always play together with her there.32.What can be learned from the passage?A.The old furniture is still in the author's first bedroom.B.The author can still visit her first physical home in Los Angeles.C.The author's favorite room in her first home is the dining room.D.Many people of the author's age can still find their first physical homes.33.Sometimes when she feels lost, the author will________.A.open the window at nightB.lie down in bed to have a dreamC.try to bring back a sense of homeD.go to Los Angeles to visit her mom34.What is the author's purpose of writing this passage?A.To express how much she is attached to her home.B.To declare how much she loves her first house.C.To describe the state of her family.D.To look back on her childhood.BFarmers are being told more needs to be done to stop them injuring at work.One in five British workplace deaths happens in agriculture even though farmers are only a small part of the working population.During the year 2010/11 there were 1,061 injuries in total and it is thought many more go unreported.Jim Chapman from Warwickshire had his arm torn off by farm machinery seven years ago when he was 23.“You don't realize how much you rely on your second arm until it's gone,”he said.He fell against a PTO shaft(传动轴),a spinning metal bar at the back of a tractor.“It catapulted(猛力掷出) me from one side of the machine to the other,”he said.“I landed on the flo or,minus all my clothing.My left arm had been ripped off.”He admits that the machinery was missing part of its proper safety guard.“But again,”he added,“it was a rushed day.There were a few machines that didn't work.Also,I was getting behind with the jobs.”Over the last 10 years,other industries that you'd think of as dangerous,like building or quarrying(矿采),have lowered the number of workplace deaths and injuries.In the farming industry though,deaths remain high with 34 deaths in 2010/11.Judith Hackitt,the chair of the Health and Safety Executive(HSE) says it is“not acceptable” that the accident statistics for farming are still high.“People in farming don't have minor(较小的) injuries.When they get injured,it's bad.”she said.“When I said to the National F armers' Union(NFU) that if I had sons I would not want them to work in agriculture,it really made them sit up and take notice.”There's a whole host of reasons why farming is as dangerous as it is.It is a very rough industry.Also,it's often because people are left alone.They could be young and inexperienced,or older people,who would have retired maybe 5 or 10 years ago in other industries.Jim wants others to learn from his experience.“Look at what you're doing before you go running in,”he said.“You could ma ke a mistake that you'll live with for the rest of your life.”35.Jim Chapman was injured in the workplace mainly because ________.A.he crossed the machineryB.the safety guard of the machinery was goneC.he was standing at the back of the tractorD.he didn't notice the PTO shaft36.In British farming industry,________.A.farmers take up a large part of working populationB.the number of injuries is bigger than what the public knowC.old machinery was not replaced in timeD.being a farmer is the most dangerous37.Judith thought ________ were (was) not acceptable.A.the injuries of farmersB.the high deaths for farmingC.her son's hope to work in agricultureD.farmers' retiring 5 or 10 years later38.From the whole text,we can see that Jim feels ________.A.regretful B.angryC.shocked D.confusedCOur culture has caused most Americans to assume not only that our language is universal but that the gestures we use are understood by everyone.We do not realize that waving goodbye is the way to summon a person from the Philippines to one's side,or that in Italy and some LatinAmerican countries,curling the finger to oneselfis a sign of farewell.Those private citizens who sent packages to our troops occupying Germany after World War Ⅱ and marked them GIFT to es cape duty payments did not bother to find out that“Gift” means poison in German.Moreover,we like to think of ourselves as friendly,yet we prefer to be at least 3 feet or an arm's length away from tins and Middle Easterners like to come closer and touch,which makes Americans uncomfortable.Our linguistic(语言的)and cultural blindness and the casualness with which we take notice of the developed tastes,gestures,customs and languages of other countries,are losing our friends,business and respect in the world.Even here in the United States,we make few concessions(让步) to the needs of foreign visitors.There are no information signs in four languages on our public buildings or monuments;we do not have multilingual (多语的) guided tours.Very few restaurant menus have translations,and multilingual waiters,bank clerks and policemen are rare.Our transportation systems have maps in English only and often we ourselves have difficulty understanding them.When we go abroad,we tend to stay in hotels and restaurants where English is spoken.The attitudes and information we pick up are conditioned by those natives—usually the richer—who speak English.Our business dealings,as well as the nation's diplomacy (外交),are conducted through interpreters.For many years,America and Americans could get by with cultural blindness and linguistic ignorance.After all,America was the most powerful country of the free world,the distributor(分发者)of needed funds and goods.But all that is past.American dollars no longer buy all good things,and we are slowly beginning to realize that our proper role in the world is changing.A 1979 Harris poll reported that 55 percent of Americans want this country to play a more significant role in world affairs; we want to have a hand in the important decisions of the next century,even though it may not always be the upper hand.39.It can be inferred that Americans being approached too closely by Middle Easterners would most probably________.A.stand still B.jump asideC.step forward D.draw back40.In countries other than their own,most Americans ________.A.are isolated by the local peopleB.are not well informed due to the language barrierC.tend to get along well with the nativesD.need interpreters in hotels and restaurants41.According to the author,Americans' cultural blindness and linguistic ignorance will________.A.affect their image in the new eraB.cut themselves off from the outside worldC.limit their role in world affairsD.weaken the position of the US dollar42.The author intends to make Americans realize that it is ________.A.dangerous to ignore their foreign friendsB.important to maintain their leading role in world affairsC.necessary to use several languages in public placesD.time to get familiar with other culturesDWe're in the middle of winter.It's cold and we're suffering from cold wind and rain.The sun,even when it does show its face,is setting at 4 p.m.It's no wonder people in the street look sad.But according to most of the research on the connection between weather and mood(情绪),they shouldn't be.Weather has little effect on mood.When you tell people this,though,they don't believe it.Most of us think the weather has quite a strong effect on our mood.Many think that the rain and cold weather dejects us and the sun and warmth cheers us up.So why don't we see this effect in the research?That's the question a new study by Klimstra et al.tries to answer with a group of young people and their mothers.In fact,Klimstra et al.found four different groups:1.Unaffected:about half the people in their study fell into this group.For these people it didn't matter that much whether it was raining or sunny,hot or cold,their mood was mostly unaffected.2.Summer lovers:here's the group you'd expect.For these people,their mood improved with less rain,more sun and higher temperatures(15% of young people and 30% of their mothers).3.Summer haters:here's the group of people you hear less about.These were theexact opposite of the summer lovers so they were happier when there was more rain,less sun and lower temperatures (27% of the young people and 12% of their mothers).4.Rain haters:this group's mood didn't change with the temperature,sunshine or the wind;they just hated the rain(8% of young people and 12% of their mothers).This helps explain why studies keep finding that weather doesn't have much effect on mood:it's because we're different and these differences are mostly being averaged out.43. It's found in the study that ________.A.weather has a strong effect on moodB.cold wind and rain makes us look sadC.the sun and warmth cheers us upD.mood is little affected by weather44. In which group people like dry and hot weather?A.Unaffected. B.Summer lovers.C.Summer haters. D.Rain haters.45.From the four different groups we can learn ________.A.about half the people belong to summer loversB.more than one third of the people are summer hatersC.few of young people and their mothers like the rainD.more young people are unaffected than rain haters46.What is the BEST title for the passage?A.Does the weather really affect your mood?B.Why do people feel sad in cold winter?C.How many different groups are there?D.Do different people have different mood?E(2013·重庆高考)It is widely known that any English conversation begins with The Weather. Such a fixation with the weather finds expression in Dr. Johnson's famous comment that “When two English meet, their first talk is of weather.” Though Johnson's observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago, most commentators fail to come up with a convincing explanation for this English weatherspeak.Bill Bryson, for example, concludes that, as the English weather is not at all exciting, the obsession with it can hardly be understood. He argues that “To anoutsider, the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it.” Simply, the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable weather is almost unknown in the British Isles.Jeremy Paxman, however, disagrees with Bryson, arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive. Bryson is wrong, he says, because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do with the natural phenomena. “The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty.” According to him, the weather in England is very changeable and uncertain and it attracts the English as well as the outsider.Bryson and Paxman stand for common misconceptions about the weatherspeak among the English. Both commentators, somehow, are missing the point. The English weather conversation is not really about the weather at all. English weatherspeak is a system of signs, which is developed to help the speakers overcome the natural reserve and actually talk to each other. Everyone knows conversations starting with weatherspeak are not request s for weather data. Rather, they are routine greetings, conversation starters or the blank “fillers”. In other words, English weatherspeak is a means of social bonding.47.The author mentions Dr. Johnson's comment to show that________.A.most commentators agree with Dr. JohnsonB.Dr. Johnson is famous for his weather observationC.the comment was accurate two hundred years agoD.English conversations usually start with the weather48.What does the underlined word “obsession” most probably refer to?A.A social trend.B.An emotional state.C.A historical concept.D.An unknown phenomenon.49.According to the passage,Jeremy Paxman believes that________.A.Bill Bryson has little knowledge of the weatherB.there is nothing special about the English weatherC.the English weather attracts people to the British IslesD.English people talk about the weather for its uncertainty50.What is the author's main purpose of writing the passage?A.To explain what English weatherspeak is about.B.To analyse misconceptions about the English weather.C.To find fault with both Bill Bryson and Jeremy Paxman.D.To convince people that the English weather is changeable.Ⅳ.完成句子(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)51.An idea occured to me ________________ to finish the task.(team)我忽然想到了一个主意,我可以找一个同学来完成这项任务。

The Olympic debutant (初次参赛者) led all the way to clock 44.345 seconds, winning the nation's third winter Olympic gold medal after Yang Yang's two in 2002.Bulgarian Evgenia Radanova, world record holder and 2002 silver medalist, had to settle for a silver again with a time of 44.374 seconds. Canada's Anouk Leblang-Boucher got the bronze in 44.759 with Chinese Fu Tianyu disqualified for cross tracking.The 20-year-old Wang, who has won four World Cup races over 500m, proved herself as the most consistent short tracker in the world. Her victory helped ease China's pain of losing an expected gold in the women's 500m long-track speed skating when World Cup leader Wang Manli came second to Russia's Svetlana Zhurova on Tuesday. Like China's Athens Olympic champion Liu Xiang, Wang jumped onto the podium and waved excitedly to the cheering crowd. "Until Ijumped onto the podium did I know my name had not yet been announced," Wang said, laughing. "I was just so excited and anxious to get onto the podium."South Koreans Kang Yun-Mi and Jin Sun-Yu, tipped as biggest threats to Chinese skaters before the competition, were edged out in the semifinals.41. Which of the following statements is true?A. Wang Manli had been expected to win the women's 500m long track speed skating but she failedB. Evgenia Radanova became world record holder in 2002.C. Wang Meng won the first gold medal in the Turin Winter OlympicGames.D. Svetlana Zhurova came second together with Wang Manli.42.Why did Wang Meng jumped onto the podium before her name was announced?Because Liu Xiang had done so before.Because she didn't understand the language.Because the cheering crowd wanted her to do so.Because she was so excited and anxious.43. How many skaters are mentioned in this passage?A. 10B. 9C. 11D. 844. Which of the following explanations is closest in meaning with theunderlined word “edged out” in the last paragraph?A. forbidden to take partB. kicked outC. chosenD. picked outBWith the number of college graduates climbing to a record high this year—some 2.12 million are entering the job market, an increase of 670,000, or 46.2 percent, over last year, many people are asking if China's first “McDonald's generation", born in the early 1980s,can stand the intense competition and find a place in the job market. They say this will be a test of both China's job market and its carefree younger generation.“Do not worry. We'll get whatever we want",they tell each other to ease their own anxiety.Born in the early days of the country's reform and opening to the outside world, growing up in the market economy, the youngsters, familiar with McDonald's and Mickey Mouse, love to eat hamburgers, and wear foreign brand jeans and T-shirts and worship Bill Gates. Compared with their parents, they enjoy more freedom in looking for a job—and with that freedom coming burdens.These college graduates are seen scouring recruitment information in newspapers and journals, the Internet and job markets nationwide.Shortly after hotel management major, Hao Wenhua, a young woman from Chongqing in Southwest China, failed the recruitment test of a five star hotel in Guilin, South China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. She appeared at a job market in Nanning, approximately 300 kilometers from Guilin, looking rather tired.Many businesses and companies say that they would take on experienced staff rather than the new graduates who are short of the experience of how to succeed in today's fast paced society.45. Which of the following groups of people belongs to China's first McDonald's generation?A. People who were born in the early days of China's reform and opening to the outside world.B. People who like to eat hamburgers and wear foreign brand clothes.C. People who admire Bill Gates.D. People who lack the experience of how to succeed in today's fast46.What can we infer from the story of Hao Wenhua in the passage? We can infer______ .A. that there are many chances to find jobs in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous RegionB. that hotel management is not a good major in collegeC. that there is intense competition in the job marketD. that many businesses and companies don't like new college graduates47.What is the best title for the passage?A. Fierce Competition in the Job MarketB. McDonald's Generation Has Grown up.CYour mobile phone rings, and instead of usual electronic signals, it's playing your favorite music. A friend sends you a favorite song to cheer you up. One day, a record company might forward new records and music videos to your phone.The mobile business is getting into the music business. For the moment, the interest is in pleasant ring tones, but some companies are hoping to take full advantage of the next generation of mobile phones---all –purpose gadgets that blend phone, personal stereo, video player and Internet browser into one. Finally, record companies might send new records and videos to fans who register their cell phone numbers.The fans could pass music or songs along to friends--- a kind of musical trading card. Unlike Internet tracks, mobile phone downloadswould be easy for record companies to control, said former record industry official Ralph Simon, who is now chairman of your mobile, based in Santa Monic, California. “If you pass a song along to other phones through a network, each phone can be charged,” said Simon. “It's like going through a toll (收费)gate. There's more possibility for copyright control than there is on the Internet.”Massachusetts-based converse is offering a service in Portugal and the Netherlands that let people record tunes on their voice mail or send music as presents to friends. Finally, people might be able to sing karaoke and pass them along. The company is sure that people will want to use music to reach out and touch someone.“A mobile phone is not a listening machine, and you'll be disappointed if you think you can change it into a radio,” said Ohad Ouziel, a creative manager for Converse in Israel. “But if someone sends you a song while you are on vacation, you appreciate the feeling.”48. The title of this passage should be _______.A. Wonderful Mobile PhonesB. The Music BusinessC. The Internet, A Modern InventionD. Music On Your Phone49.The underlined word “blend” (in Paragraph 2)probably means _______.A. sendB. becomeC. combineD. compare50.Record companies _______ the idea of passing songs and music along mobile phones.A. are worried aboutB. are interested inC. try hard to stopD. take no notice of51.According to Ralph Simon it would be easier to______ through the mobile phone network than on the Internet.A. protect the copyright of music worksB. send personal messagesC. pass music to friendsD. send voice mailDJune 26,2000—the Human Genome Project, a great 3 billion,15-year task aimed at drawing the genetic map of humans, is now more than 90 percent completed. The scientific and medical communities are very excited about the chances genetic research provides for getting rid of diseases and prolonging human life. But those communities and policy makers also are careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project uncovers the mysteries of life.For the last few years, the genetic advances in fast developing field of biotechnology(生物学) have provided material for all kinds of work, but the developments of modern science in unlocking the secrets of the human genetic code have opened a world of possibilities forhuman health, as well as for the popular imagination。
