And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses”is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbours. The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money inthose days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses,Momand went horseback riding every day.When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it "Keeping up with the Joneses”because “Jones”is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses”came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Jonses”in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.5. It can be inferred (推断) from the story that rich people like to ________.A. live outside New York CityB. live in New York cityC. live in apartmentsD. have many neighbours6. From the text, we know that .A. All the neighbors of Momand like to keep up with the Joneses.B. All of his neighbors don’t want to keep up with rich lifestyle.C. Momand never seems to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses.D. Momand became very rich and returned to the wealthy neighborhood.7.

Here are some tips.Start With Your Interest. 9 . You can pick something that you love to read, not for school. They can be ancient martial (武术) arts, computers, or fashion design. You name it, there are books about it. What’s Your Type? Do you prefer fiction(科幻小说) or nonfiction (or both)? Fiction books, like novels, can transport you to another world or help you imagine something beyond your own experience. Nonfiction books give you the who, what, when, and why of something. 10 . Many of them read like novels from start to finish.Read the description（描述）. The reviews and quotes（引语）on the back and inside covers of many books give you an idea of what the book is about. They can also help you pick future books, too. If you find a book you really like, take a minute to read the quotes and see which authors praised the book. 11 .Find a Family Favorite. Which book did your mother love best when she was at your age? 12 . Find out and give them a read — then you can share your thoughts about the book.Finally, you’ll probably enjoy what you’re reading a lot more if you find a quiet place and make time for the book. 13 . You can put on some good music, get yourself some tea and let yourself be carried away by the book. You’ll see that time does fly when you’re reading something you love!A. How about your brothers and sisters?B. They tell stories using facts —but that doesn’t mean they’re boring.C. Reading is a good way to improve your English.D. Most reading is best enjoyed when you can concentrate (全神贯注) on it.E. Often, they’ll have similar styles and you might find books you like by those authors, too.F. So you should read as much as possible when you are free.G. Reading on your own isn’t like reading for school.第三部分完形填空(共20小题，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选。

I was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works. A young couple ahead of me chatted nonstop between themselves. I watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk. I admired the husband’s patience for her continuous talk. Distracted(心烦意乱的) by their noise, I moved on. I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her constant words, I moved away quickly.I was standing at the counter(收银台) of the museum gift shop when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended it into a long stick and then carefully went into the coatroom to get his wife’s jacket.“He’s a brave man.” The clerk at the counter said,“Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. But he made a promise that his life wouldn't change. So, as before, he and his wife come in whenever there’s a new art show.”“But what dose he get out of the art?” I asked,“He can’t see.”“Can’t see? You're wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do.” The clerk said, “His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head.”I learned something about patience, courage and love that day. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. And I saw the love shared1. “…I moved away quickly.” in Paragraph 3 shows that the writer ________.A. was in the hope of visiting more roomsB. was in a hurry to buy some giftsC. was tired of the nonstop talkingD. was not interested in the art show2.

The passage is mainly about ___________.A. the importance of artB. good manners in publicC. patience of a husbandD. love between a coupleBThe Channel is the name given to the stretch of water（一片汪洋）which separates England and France. Ferries（摆渡）operate all year round to carry people across the Channel, and they are busy most of the year. January is the only quiet month nowadays. As well as summer holiday-makers, there are day trippers and coach traffic, not to mention lorries and other commercial vehicles. Some ferries carry cars and their passengers, while others also connect train passengers with the Continental rail network.The biggest hazard for the ferry is the wind. The crew listens to BBC weather reports four times a day. Or they sometimes get gale（大风）warnings from local radio station.Crossing the Channel by ferry is a bit like trying to cross Oxford Street on a busy afternoon, according to one ferryboat captain. The ferries from Folkstone and Dover to Calais and Boulogne have to cross the main flow of traffic. This consists of ships traveling through the Channel to and from Northern Europe. There may be four hundred ships making the journey at any one time,and they all pass through a “choke point” which is only fifteen miles (twenty-five kilometers) wide. The cross-channel ferries have to sail right through the middle of all this traffic.4. The passage is mainly concerned with _____.A. the English ChannelB. the weather on the ChannelC. cross-channel ferriesD. what crossing the Channel by ferry is like5. The word hazard is closest in meaning to ________.A. troubleB. dangerC. enemyD. problem6. We can infer from the passage that _______.A. if there is a gale warning from the BBC, the ferries will stop operating.B. the traffic on the Channel is very busy only in winterC. ferries are busiest in the afternoonD. the crew of the ferry listens to the weather reports four times a day28. Where does this passage most probably appear?A. In a dictionary.B. In a novel.C. In a transportation magazine.D. In a geography textbook.第三部分英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文。

AAllen goes everywhere with Brigitta Anderson, a 54 year-old secretary. He moves around her office at work and goes shopping with her. “Most people don’t mind Allen,” says Brigitta, who thinks he is wonderful. “He is my fourth child,” she says. She may think of him and treat him that way, buying him delicious food, paying his health bills and his taxes, but in fact Allen is only a dog.Brigitta and Allen live in Sweden, a country where everyone is expected to lead an orderly life according to the rules laid down by the government, which also provides a high level of care for its people. Yet, this level of care costs a lot of money.People in Sweden pay taxes (税) on everything, so they aren’t surprised to find that owning a dog means some more taxes. Some people are paying as much as 500 Sweden kronor in taxes a year for the right to keep their dogs. Money from dog taxes is spent by the government on dog hospitals and sometimes medical treatment for a dog that falls ill. However, such a treatment is expensive, so dog owners often decide to pay health insurance (保险) and some even buy life insurance for their dogs.In Sweden, dog owners must pay for any damage their dogs do. A Swedish kennel (养狗场) club official explains what this means: if your dog runs out on the road and gets hit by a passing car, you, as the owner, have to pay for any damage done to the car, even if your dog has been killed in the accident.1. What is the passage about?A. Owning dogs is not allowed in Sweden.B. Owning dogs costs a lot more in Sweden.C. You are required to pay life insurance for your dog by law if you own one in Sweden.D. Allen is a good dog.2. The money paid as dog taxes is used to .A. keep a high level of care for peopleB. pay for any damage done by dogsC. provide medical care for dogsD. buy insurance for dog owners3. From the text it can be inferred that in Sweden .A. people care much about dogsB. dogs are not allowed to go out without their ownersC. many car accidents are caused by dogsD. dogs are not welcome in public places4. If a dog causes a car accident and gets killed, who should pay for the damage done to the car?A. The owner of the car.B. The owner of the dog.C. The insurance company.D. The government.5. What does the underlined word “he” in the first paragraph refer to?A. Brigitta.B. Secretary.C. Anderson.D. Allen.BHolding a cell phone against your ear or storing it in your pocket may be dangerous to your health. This explains a warning that cell phone manufacturers include in the small print that is often ignored when a new phone is purchased. Apple, for example, doesn’t want iPhones to come closer to you than 1.5 centimeters; Research In Motion, BlackBerry’s manufacturer, recommends 2.5 centimeters.If health issues arise from cell phone use, the possible effects are huge. Voice calls -Americans chat on cell phones 2.26 trillion(万亿)minutes annually - earn $109 billion for the wireless carriers.Devra Davis, an expert who has worked for the University of Pittsburgh, has published a book about cell phone radiatio n, “Disconnect.” The book surveys scientific research and concludes the question is not settled.Brain cancer is a concern that Ms. Davis examines. Over all, there has not been an increase in its incidence since cell phones arrived. But the average masks an increase in brain cancer in the 20-to-29 age group and a drop for the older population.“Most cancers have multiple causes,” she says, but she points to laboratory research that suggests low-energy radiation could damage cells that could possibly lead to cancer.Children are more vulnerable（易受伤的）to radiation than adults, Ms. Davis and other scientists point out. Radiation that penetrates only five centimeters into the brain of an adult will reach much deeper into the brains of children because their skulls are thinner and their brains contain more absorptive fluid（易吸收的液体）. No studies have yet been completed on cell phone radiation and children, she says.Henry Lai, a research professor in the bioengineering department at the University of Washington, began laboratory radiation studies in 1980 and found that rats exposed to radiation had damaged DNA in their brains.Ms. Davis recommends using wired headsets or the phone’s speaker. Children should text rather than call, she said, and pregnant women should keep phones away from the abdomen（腹部）.6. According to Ms Davis, brain cancer increase ____.A．among children B．among old people C．in the twenties D．among pregnant women7. Why do children easily be affected by radiation?A．Because they haven’t grown up.D．Because their skulls are thinner and their brains are easily hurt.C．Because they use cell phones more often than adults.B．Because they are too young to protect themselves.8. What can we conclude from the last paragraph?A．Pregnant women should keep cell phones away.B．People should use cell phones in the correct way.D．When you use a cell phone, use a wired headset or the phone’s speaker.C．If you are a child, you’d better text than make phone calls.9. What does the passage mainly talk about?A．Be careful when using cell phones.B．Low-energy radiation could damage cells that could lead to cancer.C．Rats exposed to radiation have damaged DNA in their brains.D．Don’t hold your cell phone against your ear.第二节（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。

For example, the tomato is a kind of very delicious vegetable. It is one of useful plants that can be prepared in many ways. It has rich nutrition and vitamin in it. But in the 18th century, Americans never ate tomatoes. They grew them in their gardens because tomato plants are so pretty. But they thought the vegetable was poisonous (有毒的). They called tomatoes “poison apples.”President Thomas Jefferson, however, knew that tomatoes were good to eat. He was a learned man. He had been to Paris, where he learned to love the taste of tomatoes. He grew many kinds of tomatoes in his garden. The President taught his cook a way for a cream of tomato soup. This beautiful pink soup was served at the President’s party. The guests thought the soup tasted really good.

What might the man be?A. a teacherB. a soldierC. a robberD. an actorBSince the first Earth Day in 1970, Americans have gotten a lot “greener”toward the environment. “We didn’t know at that time that there even was an environment, let alone that there was a problem with it,” says Bruce Anderson, president of Earth Day USA.But what began as nothing important in public affaris has grown into a social movement. Business people, political leaders, university professors, and especially millions of grass-roots Americans are taking part in the movement. “The understanding has increased many, many times,” says Gaylord Nelson, the former governor from Wisconsin, who thought up the first Earth Day.According to US government reports, emissions（排放）from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 million tons. The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been rced from 40 to 9. Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealth with, the world is a safer and healthier place. A kind of “green thinking” has become part of practices.Great improvement has been achieved. In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs; today in 1995 there are about 6600. Advanced lights, motors, and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution.Twenty-five years ago, there were hardly any cation programms for environment. Today, it’s hard to find a public school, university, or law school that does not have such a kind of program. Until we do that, nothing else will change!” says Bruce Anderson.6. According to Anderson, before 1970, Americans had little idea about _______.A. the social movementB. recycling techniquesC. environmental problemsD. the importance of Earth Day7. Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from?A. The grass-roots level.B. The business circle.C. Government officials.D. University professors.8. What have Americans achieved in environmental protection?A. They have cut car emissions to the lowest.B. They have settled their environmental problems.C. They have lowered their CO levels in forty cities.D. They have rced pollution through effective measures.二：语言运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完形填空（共20个小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

ADo you ever do homework while listening to music, or watch TV while texting friend? It may seem like an obvious question since most of us multitask(做多个任务) all the time.But according to a recent study published in the journal PLOS ONE, using a number of media devices(媒体设备) at the same time could be changing our brains.The report was carried out by Sussex University in the UK. Researchers first asked 75 adults about how often they spent time multitasking between different kinds of media. Then they checked their brains with an MRI machine. Those who reported heavier media multitasking had less gray matter in their brains. Gray matter is the part of the brain that helps to deal with information and control emotions(情感).So is multitasking really rotting our brains and making us stupid? We can’t be sure, according to researchers.They say that the results only show a link. They are unsure whether multitasking reduces gray matter or if people with less gray matter are simply more likely to multitask.“Media multitasking is becoming more popular in our lives today and there is increasing concern about its influence(影响) on our well-being,” said British scientist Kep Kee Loh, who directed the study.Loh says that more study is needed to support the idea that our behaviors are changing our brains. But if it’s true, it could support earlier studies about media multita sking.In 2012, a study by Michigan State University in the US found that people using several media devices at the same time were more likely to be anxious or depressed.It seems that more research into the issue is needed. But no matter what, you should consider limiting(限制) yourself to one screen at a time, the Huffington Post reported.For one thing ,Multitasking doesn’t actually work if you are trying to be more efficient(有效率的). You’re going from one action to another instead of truly doing two th ings at a time. It wastes your energy and slows you down. And once you’ve slowed down, it can be hard to pick back up where you left off.If you want to finish a list of jobs, “set goals, establish a routine(常规), and take regular breaks”, suggested The H uffington Post.1. What did the recent study by Sussex University find?A. Most people have the ability to multitask.B. Multitasking can help to improve efficiency.C. There are several reasons behind media multitasking.D. There is a link between more media multitasking and less grey matter.2. The underlined word “rotting” is closest in meaning to _____.A. harmingB. controllingC. improvingD. recovering3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?A. Many studies have proven that peo ple’s behaviors change their brains.B. Scientists are concerned about the bad influence of media multitasking.C. Depressed people use more media devices than other people to relieve stress.D. People are advised to stop using media devices in the future.BModern zoos are very different from zoos built fifty years ago. At that time, zoos were places where people could go to see animals from many parts of the world. The animals lived in cages with iron bars, which were easy to keep clean. However, for the animals, the cages were small and impossible to hide in. Although the zoo keepers took good care of them, many of the animals did not feel comfortable, and they often became ill.In modern zoos, people can see animals in more natural conditions. The animals are given more freedom in larger places so that they can live more as they would in nature. Even the appearance of zoos has changed. Trees and grass grow in the cages, and water flows through the places that the animals live in. There are few bars; instead, there is often a deep ditch filled with water, which surrounds a space where several sorts of animals live together as they would naturally. In an American zoo, the visitor can walk through a huge special cage that is filled with trees, some small animals and many birds, and the cage is large enough for the birds to live naturally. In a zoo in New York, because of special night, people can observe certain animals that are active only at night, when most zoos are closed. Some zoos have special places for visitors to watch animals that live in the desert, or under water. Some other zoos have special places for animals that live in cold conditions like the bear from the Arctic.Modern zoos not only show animals for visitors, but also keep and save rare animals. For this reason, fifty years from now, the grandchildren of today's visitors will still be able to enjoy watching these animals.4. Fifty years ago, animals in zoos often became ill because they ________.A. were from different countriesB. lived in dirty cagesC. were not taken good care ofD. lived in unnatural conditions5. According to the passage, in modern zoos ________ feel more comfortable than in old ones.A. the animals, not the visitorsB. the visitors, not the animalsC. neither the animals nor the visitorsD. the animals and the visitors6 The main idea of this passage is that ________.A. zoos are now places where animals can live naturallyB. zoos are places where people can see animals from all over the worldC. there are different kinds of modern zoosD. rare animals are also kept in modern zoos二完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AChristmas Eve was tomorrow. I hoped one of the packages that held a camera had already been placed under the Christmas tree. It was the only thing I wanted. I had been dropping hints to my parents.

姓名班级学号完成日期家长签字2017-2018学年暑假作业11一阅读理解AJack Brown, an office worker, lives in Washington. He inherited(继承) a million dollars when he was 23, but he wasn’t happy at all. When his college friends are l ooking for their jobs, he didn’t have to. Jack decided to keep living a simple life like everyone else.
