In 2003，America said Iraq had weapons of mass destruction （大规模杀伤性武器)and decided to go to war with Saddam again.试卷第2页，共11页The US-led army occupied （占领)Iraq in April.But they could not find Saddam.Saddam had around 30 hiding places in the country and he moved among them every four hours.The US-led army only found him after being told where he was by one of his former workers.America and Britain now want to put Saddam on trial for “war crimes （罪行）”,such as killing Kurds in the 1990s.George W.Bush ，the US President ，wants Saddam to “pay the ultimate penalty （终极惩罚）” for such crimes.By that ，he means the death penalty.The UN and European countries ，though ，do not want Saddam to be put to death. 1、 Richardo Sanchez is . A ．the US top administrator B ．the leader of IraqC ．the US‟s top army official in IraqD ．the US president2、Saddam Hussein led （领导)Iraq for years. A ．20 B ．11 C ．12 D ．243、When Saddam was found ，he .A ．had 750 000 pounds with himB ．had a gun with himC ．had some soldiers with himD ．shot one soldier 4、Which of following is Not true?A ．America thought Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.B ．The US led army couldn‟t find Saddam until his former worker told them.C ．Saddam moved among 30 hiding places other three hours.D ．The UN and European countries agree with George W.Bush on how to deal with Saddam.In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly ，believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity.Others say that competition is bad ；that it sets one person against another ；that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self worth relied (依赖)on how well they performed at tennis and other skills.For them ，playing well and winning are often life and death affairs.In their single minded pursuit(追求)of success ，the development ，of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However，while sonic seem to be lost in die desire to succeed，others take an opposite attitude.In a culture which values only die winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players，they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society.Teaching these young people，I often observe in them a desire to fail.They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success.By not trying，they always have an excuse：“I may have lost，but it doesn‟t matter because I really didn‟t try.”What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost，that would mean a lot.Such a loss would be a measure of their worth.Clearly，this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves.Both are based on the mistaken belief that one‟s self respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others.Both are afraid of not being valued.Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve(缓解) can we discover a new meaning in competition.5、What does this passage mainly talk about?A．Competition helps to set up self-respect.B．Opinions about competition are different among people.C．Competition is harmful to personal quality development.D．Failures are necessary experiences in competition.6、Why do some people favor competition according to the passage?A．It pushes society forward.B．It builds up a sense of duty.C．It improves personal abilities.D．It encourages individual efforts.7、The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means .A．those who try their best to winB．those who value competition most highlyC．those who are against competition most stronglyD．those who rely on others most for success8、What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a “desire to fail”? A．One‟s worth lies in his performance compared with others.B．One‟s success in compet ition needs great efforts.C．One‟s achievement is determined by his particular skills.D．One‟s success is based on how hard he has tried.试卷第4页，共11页A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms, though my teacher emphasized(强调) the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be astonished. Gently shaking his head, shrugging his shoulders, he said, “You don‟t say!” “You don‟t say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not an appropriate topic(适当的话题). “Well, I‟d better change the topic.” So I said to him. “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wa ll? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was magnificent.” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted again by his words ：“You don‟t say!” I couldn‟t help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didn‟t request you to do so, ” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didn‟t you say‟ you don‟t say?” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, …You don‟t say‟ actually means …really!‟ It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don‟t pay attention to English idioms.” Only then did I know I had made a fool of my self. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students.9、A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms because _______.

The newest products are designed to make our lives easier, fun and more productive.A car with legsOne of this year’s presentations was by South Korean carmaker Hyun-dai. The company introduced a small model of a “ walking car,” which is called Elevate. It has four movable legs that can raise the main part of the vehicle high off the ground. The electric-powered vehicle is designed to be used in search-and-rescue operations during emergencies or natural disasters.Changeable people moverGermany's Mercedes presented an experimental self-driving vehicle that it claims can revolutionize transportation for people and goods.

The company says the bike will be able to go 177 kilometers between charges. It can reach 96 kilometers per hour in under3.5 seconds. Although Harley is known for building powerful bikes with huge, loud motors, the LiveWire will be unusually quiet.Personal robotsOne of the new robots, called Temi, is really just a computer tablet on wheels.

To ease traffic jam.B. To help us socialize.C. To improve our life.D. To protect the environment.BA lot of us lose life’s tough battles by starting a frontal attack—when a touch of humor might well enable us to win．Consider the case of a young friend of mine，who hita traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum about beinglate on the job．Although there was a good reason for Sam’s a being late—serious illness at home—he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldn’t work any longer．His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech．Yes，the boss was．Sam entered the office at 9：35．The place was as quiet as a locker room；everyone was hard at work．Sam’s supervisor came up to him．Suddenly，Sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand．“How do you do！” he said．“I’m Sam Maynard．I’m applying for a job，which，I understand，became available just 35 minutes ago．Does the early bird get the worm？”The room exploded in laughter．The supervisor“clamped off”a smile and walked back to his office．Sam Maynard had saved his job—with the only tool that could win，a laugh．Humor is a most effective，yet frequently neglected，means of handling the difficult situations in our lives．It can be used for patching up differences，apologizing，saying “no”，criticizing，getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losingface．For some jobs，it’s the only tool that can succeed．It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel．For example，many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerancethan people in any other forum．4. Why was Sam late for his job？A. Because he was ill．B. Because he got up late．C. Because he was caught in a traffic jam．D. He was busy applying for a new job．5. The main idea of this passage is ________．A. Sam Maynard saved his job with humorB. humor is important in our livesC. early bird gets the wormD. humor can solve racial discriminations6. The phrase “clamped off” in Paragraph 3 means ________．A tried to hold back B. tried to setC. chargedD. gave out7. Which of the following statements can we infer from the passage？A. Many lose life’s battles for they are lacking in a sense of humor．B. It wasn’t the first time that Sam came late for his work．C. Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8：30．D. Humor is the most effective way of solving problems．C“Your mind is a garden; your thoughts are the seeds. The harvest can either be flowers or weeds,” William Wordsworth wrote. In the above quote, William suggests that the process of gardening mirrors human life. Depending on what we “plant” in our lives, we bloom (生长茂盛) or don’t. Before you start to work in your garden, it’s necessary to have a vision for it. Thinking of what youwant to grow in your garden and how to lay it out is a good first step in making your vision a fruitful reality. In life, you should consider what you want to create and what you want to achieve, because your mind-garden is like the white paper and the possibilities are endless. Regardless of what you choose to plant, poor soil isn’t suitable for growth. This is why gardeners take the time and energy to upgrade the soil before planting. So, creating the right soil is important to the realization of your goals and dreams. Fortunately, there are countless ways to make your personal bedrock better. Getting an education is one of the most effective ways, which can help you enrich your life’s soil.You don’t have to be an enthusiastic gardener to understand the meaning of “You reap(收获) what you sow.” When a gardener wants tomatoes, they just need to plant tomato seeds. It’s a very clear act that produces an expected result. Each of us has the power to decide which “life seeds” to plant. For example, if you plant ill seeds, it's likely that you’ll experience pain in return. Contrarily, if you plant seeds of kindness and understanding, your life will bloom with happiness and love.A gardener’s trulyarduouswork begins after the seeds are in the ground because a garden requires a lot of care and attention. Regular watering and weeding are required for a healthy garden. So, to ensure your dreams take root, you should be devoted, aware, and present. After countless hours and energy spent, the crops have grown well and are finally ready to be harvested.8. What is important before gardeners break ground in their gardens?A. Receiving some training in planting.B. Drawing up a good plan for their gardens.C. Having the courage to accept the worst outcome.D. Doing research on the common local garden plants.9. What is compared to getting education by the author?A. Improving the condition of the soil.B. Growing your most favorable plants.C. Taking care of the plants in your garden.D. Selecting proper goals in gardening work.10. What does the author want to express in Paragraph 3?A. Your quality of life depends on your positive action.B. Your experience can help you understand plants better.C. Your choice of soil is an important part in your gardening.D. Your knowledge of planting will make you a successful gardener.11. What does the underlined word “arduous” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. BeneficialB. CreativeC. Boring.D. ToughDA nurse has fulfilled (实现) a promise she made to her patient four years ago to one day attend her daughter's graduation from nursing school.Edina Habibovic, 22, graduated from Chamberlain University's College of Nursing in 2020. Her mother, Sevala Habibovic, 46, died in2017 after a two year fight with breast cancer.“I thought the medical field wasn't for me. Then, my mom got sick and I had all the experience going in and out of the hospital, ” Edina toldGood MorningAmerica. “When my mom passed away, I thought, ‘I want to dothis.’”she said.Sanja Josipovic, who at the time worked as a home health nurse with Northwestern Medicine in Winfield, Illinois, cared for Sevala inside her home.

She was a powerful and strong minded woman. She wasn't scared to die; she was just worried about her kids and husband.”Edina said her mother lived for being with her family and taking care of people. “When Sanja was working, my mom would still try to make her something to eat, no matter how sick she was, ” Edina added.

Edina's graduation, ” said Sanja, who is a mother of three herself. She agreed.Due to COVID -19, there was no graduation or pinning ceremony.

Large numbers of people from all over the world come to visit famous places, such as the Great Wall of China and the Sistine Chapel（西斯廷教堂）in Vatican City. These visitors contribute (贡献)a lot to the local development, but at the same time they have caused many problems. They’ve thrown rubbish everywhere, brought more traffic and even done serious damage（破坏）to these places.As for the damage, there are many different causes. For example, the paintings in the Sistine Chapel are being damaged because people breathe onto them when they visit. Damage in other places such as the Great Wall is serious partly because tourists climb on delicate（脆弱的）areas. Even though some of the walls were built of stone, after so many years, they are already in poor condition and need to be rebuilt.▲On the one hand, we have to cut down tourist numbers, because fewer visitors will result in less damage. On the other hand, we should make strict rules about which areas people can visit and what they can do when they get there. For example, special paths（路径）can be built and people will not be allowed to walk off the paths. Visitors to indoor places can be asked to wear masks（面罩）to protect the paintings.It is necessary to control tourism at famous places. If we do not do this, these places will disappear from our planet. And people who live hundreds of years later will have no chance to see these great places.1．What does the underlined word “tourism” in Parag raph 1 mean in Chinese?A．交流B．污染C．购物D．旅游2．What causes the Sistine Chapel to be damaged?A．People’s writing their names on its walls.B．People’ s breathing onto the paintings.C．People’ s drawing on the paintings.D．People’ s climbing up its wa lls.3．Which of the following can be put in ?A．Why are these places so popular?B．What has been done to protect these places?C．What can we do to deal with these problems?D．How much money is needed to rebuild these places?4．What is the writer’s pur pose of writing this passage?A．To predict the future of famous places.B．To call on people to protect famous places.C．To ask people to travel less during holidays.D．To explain why international tourism is popular.B14、“The brat（捣蛋鬼）！” Said Alice.

Did I turn the coffee maker off? Did I lock the door? Are the kids doing their homework or watching television? With a smart home, you can quiet all of these worries.A smart home is a home with a communication network. This network connects devices(装置), such as lights and TV sets, and allows them to be controlled from far away through electrical wiring, mobile phone communication or WiFi over the internet.More and more people may start to consider owning a smart home, because it makes life much more convenient. It can help keep your room at a certain temperature. It can record what happens inside the home and send the video to your phone. When you are on vacation abroad, you can use a smart home controller to switch on or off the electricity when necessary. Some smart homes can receive a visitor, allowing him to come in and offering him a drink. They can even feed the cat and water the plants.Besides, smart homes are easy to fix. Most smart home technology and devices are wireless and can be set up with a minimum of tools, using only the guiding information. When a problem appears, you can deal with it yourself without paying a professional.However, for home-users, the smart home technology is far from perfect. It can be rather expensive to own the technology and the devices. Also, because the smart home system allow its owner to get home information from anywhere, it leaves the home easy to be attacked by hackers(黑客),who may secretly use or change the information inthe system.Now, many scientists are excited at the future of smart home technology. Imagine being able to get fashion advice from your mirror, or receive food shopping suggestions from your refrigerator. While there are others who worry that those smart devices will make people lazier and lonelier. Whatever it is, one thing is for sure---smart home technology will change the way we live and work.1．According to the passage, nowadays a smart home can lock the door through______________.A．electric lights B．mirror technologiesC．mobile phones D．shopping programs2．The third paragraph of the passage is mainly about _________.A．the steps to use smart systemsB．the prices of smart programsC．the advantages of a smart homeD．the tools for setting up smart devices3．What’s the writer’s opinion according to the passage?A．People will become less happy in the future.B．People’s life style will be different in the future.C．Mobile phones are the most important in smart homes.D．Smart homes are much better than other smart systems.D16、阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D项中，选出最佳选项。
