named the salmon(大马哈鱼)．There are many different kinds of salmon，but almost all of them mate(交配) in a very strange way.They are born in small，fresh water rivers.They live in the river for a year，and then swim downstream to a bigger river and eventually to the ocean.In the salt water，they eat constantly and grow very quickly.While they live in the ocean，salmon are silver colored.After several years at sea，the salmon grow very long and heavy.Then，as_if_by_magic(魔法)，they all begin to swim home.Each salmon somehow remembers where it was born and swims to the very same area in the small river.It is a long，difficult journey home.Once the salmon enter fresh water，they stop eating.They also change colors.Some salmon turn red，others brown and grey，and some turn pink.Some salmon grow a large bulge on their back，called a hump.These salmon fight to swim upstream against the current(水流) of sometimes very powerful rivers.They jump over waterfalls and have to avoid bears，birds，and fishermen.Finally，the salmon that survive mate in the same river in which they were born.Then，after all that work，they die！These salmon still play an important role.Their dead bodies help to provide nutrition to the animals that live in and around the river.When their eggs hatch，the cycle will start again.1．In Paragraph 2，the clause “as if by magic〞 suggests that________.A．a magician helps salmonB．nobody knows how salmon find their way homeC．the author doesn't know much about salmonD．salmon are magic2．Which of the following do salmon not do when they reenter fresh water?A．They change colors.B．They stop eating.C．They grow bulges on their backs.D．They grow teeth.3．Inferring from the passage，why do salmon eat a lot while they are in the ocean？Because________.A．they need to have enough energy to return homeB．they never stop swimmingC．they are afraid of bearsD．the different water makes them hungry4．Salmon return to fresh water in order to________.A．mateB．provide nutrition to other animalsC．mate and provide nutrition to other animalsD．make a difficult journey课时作业(二)Ⅰ.1.energetic cated 3.effective 4.realistic5．intelligence 6.up­to­date7.attracted8.discount9.measure

Where was the lost continent of Atlantis？In 1956 a Greek seismologist (地震学家) suggested that the great continent lay in the eastern Mediterranean Sea.More specifically south of Greece on the island of Santorini，which was called Thera in 1650 BC.Plato，a great Greek poet and historian，was interested in an ancient Egyptian story of a civilization，which Plato called Atlantis.He described Atlantis as the greatest civilization of its time.The people were famous for their beauty and their culture.Plato wrote about this beautiful place one thousand years after it was destroyed.His translation of the language of those ancient Egyptian writings was questionable.He also put the time of the disaster to be about 9,000 years，about 10 times earlier than it could have really occurred according to most historians.What happened to wipe this great civilization off the face of the Earth？A great volcanic eruption was the cause.A volcano named Santorini exploded and it blew most of the island into the heavens.When the caldera(火山口) formed，the tsunamis (海啸) produced by the crashing of the top of the volcano wiped out many cities and towns in the eastern Mediterranean.This tsunami was reported to have reached the height of over 300 feet.The earthquakes produced knocked down walls 100 miles away！Historians believe these sea waves were what caused the end of the great civilization in the Mediterranean.Archaeologists have recovered artifacts(史前古器) from the island lately that show a great ancient civilization was present on Thera about 3,800 years ago.It helps us to believe that Santorini may be the “Lost Continent of Atlantis〞！1．When was Atlantis destroyed by most historians?A．2,000 years ago.B．9,000 years ago.C．900 years ago.D．3,800 years ago.2．What caused the production of a huge tsunami over 300 feet tall?A．The form of caldera.B．The crashing of the top of the volcano.C．The great earthquake.D．The great sea waves.3．In the last paragraph，“it〞 probably refers to ________.A．the island of SantoriniB．the ancient Egyptian historyC．Plato's descriptionD．the discovery of these artifacts4．The passage is most likely to be found in ________.A．a history reportB．a story bookC．a travel guideD．a technological reportBThe Roman Empire was so big that there were a lot of different people with different cultures living in it，so you can't really say there was one way of living in the Roman Empire.People of minority races or cultures would probably feel lucky to have lived under the Roman Empire.There were people of so many different cultures travellingaround the empire interacting with each other that there had been in general a lot of tolerance(容忍) for other cultures.On the other hand，this contact did also cause tensions，which sometimes broke into violent killings of minority groups.People were forced into slavery in every corner of the Roman Empire，but the way slaves were treated depended on where you were and also on when.Big farms were usually worked by slave field­hands.But other slaves were house servants，like nurses，cooks，and boys who took care of the horses and they were generally better treated.A lot of slaves also worked for the Roman government，or for private businesses，as managers，or running a shop，or in small factories.All over the Roman Empire，many boys in cities seem to have gone to school，but most girls had to stay at home.Out in the countryside, probably hardly anyone could read or write.Very few people went to college，but those that did often travelled far from home，to Athens or Alexandria in Egypt，for a good education.Partly at school，and partly through their families or just playing ball games outside，kids all over the Roman Empire did have lots of friends.Girls and boys from rich families，however，were not allowed to get romantic together.Most marriages among the upper classes were arranged by the parents，but case was probably different for the poor.5．What life was like for people of minority races in the Roman Empire?A．Life for them was too hard to bear.B．They couldn't communicate with people of other cultures.C．They were forced to give up their own culture.D．Life for them was comfortable in a way.6．Of the following kinds of slaves，which group may be badly treated?A．House servants.B．Slaves working on farms.C．Boys taking care of horses.D．Slaves running a small shop.7．Which of the following statements is TRUE to education in Roman Empire?A．Education was open to both rich and poor people.B．In the countryside，only boys could receive education.C．People could not get college education in Roman Empire.D．Most of the girls were not allowed to go to school.8．What would be the BEST title of the passage?A．Ancient Roman EmpireB．Ancient Roman SlaveryC．Ancient Roman PeopleD．Ancient Roman EducationⅣ.翻译句子1．这对老夫妻每天都去同一个公园，从不厌烦。

If two teams play 28 game, one team must lose. 29 a dozen teams attend an athletic competition, one team will get the most points and all the 30 eleven teams will get 31 points. If a school team comes out last, that is no loss of face.32 that team and that school must do is to admit that it loses. The only intelligent reaction 33 defeat must be: next year we will do our best to come out on top, because from now on we will devote 34 to a stricter course of training under competent instructors(有能力的教练)．Lessons learned in sports can help us in our dealing with other people. 35 even more valuable are the lessons learned in extra­curricular activities in school: in speech, dramatic and musical contes ts, in “house〞 activities, and, especially, in the student council.Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (30 marks)AMatt grows the best vegetables in the village.He grows fruit too—big，sweet

Principles with TykoonCThe first settlers to come over to America needed to become good farmers in order to survive.The agricultural industry was grown greatly and now the agricultural job market can be very rewarding.Many of the new agricultural jobs these days deal with the new types of technology that are needed to produce the crops that America needs.The days of a family working their land by hand and producing a small amount of crops are over.Now many large plantations(种植场)are to harvest a larger amount of crops in a shorter period of time.If you would like to get one of these new types of jobs in the agricultural industry，then you will need to make sure that you stay on top of the new technologies.Many of these new jobs in the agricultural field have included these new technologies.Two of the new technologies that have brought many new jobs in the agricultural industry are Global Positioning System and biotechnology.The GPS systems really have the ability for farmers to seed and get in their crops in the best possible way.The biotechnology field has really allowed better and safer fertilizers to be used on crops.Biotechnology has also helped farmers to better understand what helps to make their crops better.Both of these new technologies are very interesting and offer many new opportunities.The agricultural industry still needs quite a bit ofhard work to bring in a good crop，but now many people can take advantage of these improvements to make the industry a much better experience.46．What's the main idea of the passage?A．New technologies have brought many new jobs to Americans.B．Farmers should try to stay on top of the new technologies.C．The agricultural industry in America has grown greatly.D．New technologies are greatly involved in the new agricultural jobs.47．From the first paragraph，we know that ________.A．people came to live in America a long time agoB．people have to be farmers in order to make a livingC．technology is important for the new agricultural jobsD．the American people are in great need of crops48．If you want to get an agricultural job，you should ________.A．learn about the newest technologiesB．go to the agricultural job marketC．stay in the industry all the timeD．have a large amount of experience49．According to the third paragraph，the new technologies ________.A．have encouraged farmers to make more moneyB．have created a number of new jobsC．have forced farmers to harvest a lotD．have developed rapidly in the past years50．The Global Positioning System helps farmers to ________.A．choose the best seeds in timeB．find the crops wherever they areC．harvest the crops in the best wayD．use the safer fertilizers on cropsPart Ⅲ Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)(2012·洞口高一上期末)Why do people play sports and games? Because they are fun and a lot more besides: building up our health...following the rules...acting as a team membe r.... These are all “game〞 ideas that you will meet with throughout your life.Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope­jumping,hide­and­seek (捉迷藏) and playing soldiers. Such games are entertaining and a lot of fun. But perhaps more importantly, they teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow in the rest of their lives, such as obeying the rules, taking turns and cooperating (合作)．Many children's games have a practical side. Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as grown­ups. For instance, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones, which sharpens the hand­eye coordination (协调) needed in hunting.When we grow up, we don't play those “silly〞 games any more. We begin to play basketball, football, tennis and chess and so on. We may play them for fun, for a better health and even for honor. Some even play them to make a living.Many sports and games encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games, bring athletes (运动员) from around the world together to take part in friendly competitions. People who watch the event will wave flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country, not just for the athlete who earns it. For countries experiencing natural disasters(灾难) or a war, an Olympic win can mean a lot more.Sports are also an event that unites people. Football and basketball are the most popular sports in the world. People on all continents play them. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian football player, has discovered a way to spread hope through football. He created a foundation to provide poor children with not only football balls but also a promising future.To conclude, we say that sports and games can do a lot of good to us as well as to our society. Next time you play your favorite game or sport, think about why you enjoy it, what skills are needed, and whether these skills will help you in other aspects (方面) of your life.51．________(2012·凤凰县华鑫中学高一下月考)It seems that the Englishman just cannot live without sports of some kinds. A famous French humorist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children and grown­ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men always remains boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?Taking all amateur(业余的) and professional(职业的)sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the US. The game started in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or association football, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.The next is rugby, which is called football in the US. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players rather than eleven. In rugby, an oval­shaped(椭圆形的)ball is used which can be held by hand as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to almost every country in the world.Table tennis, or ping­pong, surely is not played as much as it is in China and Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horse­back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.61．What's the main purpose of Paragraph 1?

It was a strange place. Martin and Tom wished that they had not accepted Jack's dare.They liked camping，but not near this swamp.“So，〞Martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. “How did this place get its name？〞“Are you sure you want to hear it? It's a scary s tory，〞warned Jack.“Of course！〞cried out Tom. “If there were anything to be scared of，you wouldn't have chosen this place！〞“Ok，but don't say I didn't warn you，〞 said Jack, and he began his tale.“Way back in time, a man called Dennis tried to start a far m here. He built that cottage over there to live in. In those days, the area looked quite different—it was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal­clear river. After three hard years, Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. He was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice.〞“‘You are clearing too much land，’ warned one old man. ‘The land is a living thing. It will hit back at you if you abuse it.’〞“‘Silly fool，’ said Dennis to himself.‘If I clear more land，I can grow more crops.I'll become wealthier.He's just jealous！’〞“Dennis continued to chop down trees. Small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed. He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. He did not notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.〞“What happened？〞Martin asked.It was growing colder.He trembled，twisting his body closer to the fire.“The land hit back—just as the old man warned，〞Jack shrugged. “Dennis disappeared. Old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. His body was never found.〞“What a stupid story，〞laughed Tom. “Plants can't...〞 Before he had finished speaking, he screamed and fainted(晕倒). The other two boys jumped up with fright，staring at Tom. Suddenly, they burst out laughing. Some green swamp ivy(常春藤) had covered Tom's face. It was a while before Tom could appreciate the joke.36．The under lined word “dare〞 in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to________.A．courage B．assistanceC．instruction D．challenge37．Why did Jack tell Tom and Martin the story?A．To frighten them.B．To satisfy their curiosity.C．To warn them of the danger of the place.D．To persuade them to camp in the swamp.38．Why did Tom scream and faint?A．He saw Dennis's shadow.B．He was scared by a plant.C．His friend played a joke on him.D．The weather became extremely cold.39．What lesson can we learn from the story of Dennis?A．Grasp all, lose all.B．No sweat, no sweet.C．It is no use crying over spilt milk.D．He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.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 s aid.“I landed on the floor，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 Farmers' 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 couldbe 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 make a mistake that you'll live with for the rest of your life.〞40．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 shaft41．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 dangerous42．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 later43．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 oneself is a sign of farewell.Those private citizens who sent packages to our troops occupying Germany after World War Ⅱ an d marked them GIFT to escape 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 makesAmericans 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.44．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 back45．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 restaurants46．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 dollar47．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 the exact 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 averagedout.48. 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 weather49. In which group people like dry and hot weather?A．Unaffected. B．Summer lovers.C．Summer haters. D．Rain haters.50．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 haters51．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·安徽高考)Argentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place.Around 1870，it was experiencing an economic(经济的) boom，and the capital，Buenos Aires，attracted many people.Farmers，as well as a flood of foreigners from Spain and Italy，came to Buenos Aires seeking jobs.These jobs didn't pay well，and the people felt lonely and disappointed with their new life in the city.As the unhappy newcomers mixed together in the poor parts of the city，the dance known as the tango (探戈舞) came into being.At the beginning the tango was a dance of the lower classes.It was danced in the bars and streets.At that time there were many fewer women than men，so if a man didn't want to be left out，his only choice was to dance with another man so that he could attract the attention of the few available women.Gradually，the dance spread into the upper classes of Argentinean society and became more respectable.In Europe at this time，strong interest in dance from around the world was beginning.This interest in international dance was especially evident inParis.Every kind of dance from ballet(芭蕾舞) to belly dancing could be found on the stages of the Paris theaters.After tango dancers from Argentina arrived in Europe，they began to draw the interest of the public as they performed their exciting dance in cafes.Though not everyone approved of the new dance，saying it was a little too shocking，the dance did find enough supporters to make it popular.The popularity(流行)of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world.Soldiers who returned to the United States from World War Ⅰ brought the tango to North America.It reached Japan in 1926，and in 2003 the Argentinean embassy in Seoul hired a local tango dancer to act as a kind of dance ambassador，and promote tango dancing throughout South Korea.52．The origin of the tango is associated with ________.A．belly dancersB．American soldiersC．a Spanish cityD．the capital of Argentina53．Which of the following is true about the tango?A．It was created by foreigners from Spain and Italy.B．People of the upper classes loved the tango most.C．It was often danced by two males in the beginning.D．A dancer in Seoul became the Argentinean ambassador.54．Before World War Ⅰ，the tango spread to ________.A．America B．JapanC．France D．South Korea55．What can be the best title for the text?A．How to Dance the TangoB．The History of the TangoC．How to Promote the TangoD．The Modern Tango BoomⅣ.任务型阅读(共10小题；每一小题1分，总分为10分)Third­generation mobile phones，known as 3G，are the next big step for the telecom industry.Data speed in 3G networks is much quicker than that in presentt echnology.This means users can have high­speed Internet access and enjoy video and CD­quality music on their phones.“Mobile data is not a dream；it's not an option(选择) but a requirement，〞said Len Lauer，head of a US communications company，Sprint PCS，at a 3G conference in Bangkok earlier this month.With 3G，you can forget about text messages telling you yesterday's news；a 3G phone can receive video news programs，updated four times a day.Internet access will also be much quicker，making it easier to surf the Web on your phone than on your computer at home.Face­to­face video callsDon't worry about getting lost.3G phones offer map services so you can find a new restaurant just by pressing a few keys on your handset.However，the most impressive part of 3G technology is video calling.With live two­way video communication，you can have face­to­face talks with friends and many European countries have already launched the service.In May 2000 the US government issued five license to run 3G wireless services，while the first 3G phones arrived in Italy in March this year.International telecom companies can't wait to sell 3G in China，the world's largest mobile telecommunications market.But they will have to be patient.At the moment，China is working on testing its 3G­based technologies，networks and services.This will be followed by a trial period before the phones can finally hit the shops.“We need to create a pool of 3G customers before the large­scale commercial launch of the service，〞said Fan Yunjun，marketing manager for Beijing Mobile.“We expect that the 3G licenses will be issued late next year.〞近几年，中国的文化和其他国家的文化呈现融合的趋势。

Homecoming Day.Many high schools and colleges with a football team have a homecoming game.This can be the most important event of the year except graduation or commencement day(毕业典礼)．Students plan Homecoming Day for many weeks in advance.Several days before Homecoming，students start to decorate the school.There are signs to wish luck to the team，and many other signs to welcome all the graduates.Many people still come to Homecoming twenty or thirty years after their graduation.The members of school clubs build booths(摊位) and sell lemonade(柠檬)，apples and sandwiches.Some clubs help to welcome visitors.During the day people like to look for teachers that they remember from long ago.Often they see old friends and they talk together about those happy years in school.Everyone soon comes to watch the football game.When the game is half over，the band comes onto the field and plays school songs.Another important moment is when the Homecoming Queen or King appears.All the students vote a most popular student.It is a great honor to be chosen.Homecoming is a happy day，but it is not perfect unless the football team wins the game.Even if the team loses，the students still enjoy Homecoming.Some stay at the school to dance，and others go to a party.For everyone it is a day worth remembering.36．The most important event of the year in American high schools and colleges is

old mid­winter festival in pre­Chri stian times，around the time of the longest night and the shortest day.Christmas in the 21st century has many traditions：Christmas trees，cards and presents.Presents and shoppingShops can make about 60 per cent of their year's income in the three months before Christmas.So most shops get ready for it in October.The shopping centres are beautifully decorated and stay open late at night.The first time this happened was in 1867 when Macy's，a famous shop in New York，stayed open until midnight on Christmas Eve(24th December)．TreesBy mid­December，almost every house，shop and street has a Christmas tree.Thistradition was started by the Germans as early as 700 AD.In the northern countries of the world，winter is cold and dark and most trees lose their leaves.The beautiful green trees decorated with lights and coloured glass balls give people hope that spring will come again.CardsThe tradition of sending cards to friends was started in 1840 in the UK and now millions of Christmas cards and emails are sent all round the world.Cards are a good way of keeping in touch with family and friends who live far away.Father ChristmasFather Christmas is known across the world with his white hair，red coat and big bag of toys.Young children are told that he lives in the north of Finland and makes toys for them.By tradition，he brings the toys to children at midnight，on the night before Christmas.FoodOn Christmas day a traditional meal is eaten，usually turkey(like a big chicken)and a rich，spicy cake.Some people hate Christmas.Others feel it is a magical and exciting time.They love seeing family and friends；they also love the traditions.Love it or hate it，Christmas is a time to look back over the old year—and forward to the new one.40．Christmas has been celebrated________.A．for over 3000 yearsB．since the start of the 21st centuryC．for about 1600 yearsD．for about 2400 years41．Christmas is important for shops

February 21 and March 4，carnival(狂欢节) hits the streets.For most people，carnival means large parties and feasting(盛宴)．But in Venice，it also means traditional masks and clothes.These costumes were first meant to hide personal identities.Then，differentsocial classes could mix in a sea of happiness.Along the waterways，people greeted each other with：“Good morning Ms Mask！〞Today，people in Venice still dress up in the strangest ways as armed soldiers，butchers and fishermen，for example.Bars and cafés are filled with party­goers who come to show off their beautiful clothes.Their designs an d creations are made by special studios.Ready­made costumes are not acceptable.“In the months before the carnival we work overtime to meet the demand，〞said a mask­maker.“Many kilometres of silk and lace(花边) are made into costumes.For shopkeepers，carnival is the best time of year.〞The Venice carnival dates back to the Middle Ages.At that time，the city was one of the wealthiest in Europe.The tradition of celebrating with masks and costumes is thought to have been started by the“Stocking Companies〞．These were groups of young men who organized parties and festivals and wore colorful stockings to distinguish(区分) themselves.By the 18th century，the carnival had reached its top.It all came to an end when Napoleon controlled Venice in 1797.But in 1979 ，local people brought the old traditions back to life.Now the Venice carnival attracts huge crowds from all over the world.This year，about 700,000 people are taking part.Hotels were fully booked months in advance，and bars and restaurants overflow every day.The city certainly benefits—a whole industry has been built up around the carnival's masks and clothes.“The Venice carnival is a magical time! It's such a great experience，〞said one French tourist.48．What might you infer from the article?A．People in Venice like parties.B．Venice was a happy city.C．There used to be strong feelings of social class in Venice.D．Venice was a city of silk and lace.49．When was the carnival the biggest?A．In the middle ages.B．In the 18th century.C．In 1797.D．In 1979.50.Who started the tradition of wearing masks and costumes?A．Napoleon.B．Young men.C．The hotel industry.D．The silk and lace makers.51．What is the main idea of the article?A．How the carnival is celebrated in Venice.B．The story of how the carnival began in Venice.C．The history of the carnival in Venice.D．What to see and do during the carnival time in Venice.E(2013·新课标全国卷Ⅱ)Given that many people's moods (情绪) are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate，it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drugstore of Chinese medicine.Looking like a setting from the film Charlie & theChocolateFactory，Singapore's Chocolate Research Facility (CRF) has over 100 varieties of chocolates.Its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents' corner store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.If the CRF seems to be a smart idea，that's because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony.That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored (味道) chocolates.The CRF's produce is “green〞，made within the country and divided into 10 lines，with the Alcohol Series being the most popular.The Exotic Series－with Sichuan pepper，red bean(豆)，cheese and other flavors－also does well and is fun to taste.And for chocolate_snobs，who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate thanothers，the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo，Cuba，Venezuela，and Ghana，among others.52．What is good about chocolate?A．It serves as a suitable gift.B．It works as an effective medicine.C．It helps improve the state of mind.D．It strengthens business relations.53．Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?A．He knows the importance of research.B．He learns from shops of similar types.C．He has the support of many big names.D．He has a lot of marketing experience.54．Which line of the CRF produce sells best?A．The Connoisseur Series.B．The Exotic Series.C．The Alcohol Series.D．The Sichuan Series.55．The words “chocolate snobs〞 in Paragraph 3 probably refer to people who ________.A．are particular about chocolateB．know little about cocoa beansC．look down upon othersD．like to try new flavorsⅣ.任务型读写(共10小题；每一小题1分，总分为10分)(2013·宿州市泗县第二中学高一月考)Do we need an “Ivy League〞？China may soon have its own “Ivy League〞， with a union of top universities.The term originally referred to an athletic conference of eight top universities in the northeastern US. The Chinese version, which was officially started in mid­October, consists of nine famous universities, including Peking, Tsinghua, Zhejiang and Fudan. The union is supposed to result in student exchange programs,recognition of academic achievements, and other joint programs.The news of this Chinese “Ivy League〞 has received mixed responses from the public and press. Some negative critics have dismissed it as yet another example of the wishful copying of international practices without fully understanding them. Others say that the “Ivy League〞 is not necessary but that the union is a good idea, one that could promote academic development.So what's your opinion on a Chinese “Ivy League〞？ Do we need one?Yes. Ivy League or not, nine of China's best universities cooperating is a good thing.These universities combining resources could create a better environment for students and for research. It could also save a lot of time and resources because it would mean fewer unnecessary investments for some of the universities.Allowing students to move to or have exchanges with other universities could broaden their horizons, improve their social skills and create more employment opportunities. The results could be more important than lessons and achievements.The te rm “Ivy League〞 carries a sense of academic excellence, tradition and reputation. If borrowing such a term could encourage students' and professors' mental state and improve Chinese higher education, then there's no reason not to do it.No. Universities should do some work on increasing cooperation instead of copying an “Ivy League〞 model.Many Chinese universities already have such cooperation with each other. If this cooperation were associated with the “Ivy League〞， it would just distract(分散) attention and resources and have a negative effect.These Chinese universities are all state­run and most get their funding from the government. They're quite similar to each other in many ways and more cooperation wouldn't bring about as much potential ability as between, say, public and private, or Chinese and foreign universities.China should find its own way to develop world­class universities instead of by copying some foreign practices. We have our own unique conditions and foreign lessons often don't apply well here.Ⅴ.书面表达(总分为25分)请写一篇120词左右的日记。
