She had decided back in December that making new friends was a waste of time. She would join no more clubs. She would add no new names to her phone list.On her first day, the teacher Mrs. Leonard welcomed her to the class and let one of her classmates help her find her way around. This time, it was a girl named Marley, or Carly, or something. Lin had stopped paying attention to kids' names.Lin knew that she would forget them all, just as the other kids from all those other schools had probably forgotten her. As Mrs. Leonard was giving Lin textbooks, Lin made her decision: at this school, she would be memorable.The next day, Tuesday, instead of wearing the usual jeans and T-shirt, she wore a Halloween costume. She didn't brush her hair. On Wednesday, she wore an old dress of her mother's, along with a pair of football boots. “At least they'll remember me after we've moved away, ” she thought on Thursday as she put on a skirt, a T-shirt, and a pile of long necklaces her grandmother had given her to play with.On Friday, Mrs. Leonard called her mother to school. She was a bit worried about what her mom would say when she saw her clothes —a hula skirt (草裙) from a vacation in Hawaii worn on top of a pair of shabby jeans. From inside the principal's office, she heard her mother and Mrs. Leonard talking.“She'll be so excited,” her mother said to Mrs. Leonard in the hallway. “We've moved so often, but this time, we're here to stay. I've got a new job in town. Finally, she'll be able to fit in.”4. Why didn't Lin care about her classmates' names?A. She disliked them.B. She might leave them soon.C. She had a poor memory for names.D. She thought little of people's names.5. At the new school, Lin decided to_______________.A. learn from Mrs LeonardB. play tricks on her teacherC. impress peopleD. make good use of the textbooks6. Why was Lin's mother called to school?A. Because Lin failed an exam.B. Because Lin hurt Mrs Leonard.C. Because Lin wore unusual clothes.D. Because Lin had no Halloween costumes.7. We can infer that Lin's mother_______________.A. didn't care about LinB. thoroughly understood LinC. would criticize Lin sharplyD. would move with Lin againCThe Green Desert garden centre, which covers more than 5,000 square meters of land, contains an impressive collection of over 3,000 palm trees (棕榈树).The centre is owned and run by Ali A1 Hamsa, who started the business nearly 20 years ago. He explained how to grow a palm tree from seed: ‘You have to start before the spring. Place the palm seeds under 3 centimeters of special soil, so that they can start to grow. This should be done early in the year, preferably in January or February, but it depends on the temperature. If you have enough water and good soil, the palm will grow very quickly. ’Palm trees vary greatly in size. You can buy small ones for the house, or grow them larger for planting in the garden. The price varies greatly and is based entirely on the height of the palm tree. Some palms at the garden centre are small, only 30-40 centimeters in height, but nothing under one metre is ever sold. This is because smaller palms are not yet established.Once a palm reaches about 100 centimeters, it will be well established and will be able to survive the move from the garden centre to someone’s home or garden,’ says Ali A1 Hamsa. A tree which is not established may suffer during transportation from the garden centre environment, which it is used to, to its new home, whether indoors or in the garden. People who buy palm trees —in fact, any plant from a garden centre —are often totally unaware of how a plant can suffer when it’s moved.It is no surprise that palm trees have become increasingly popular in the home. Not only do they provide a tropical (热带的)atmosphere, they have also proved to be tolerant of a wide range of indoor conditions, from air conditioning to central heating. Surprisingly, an established indoor palm needs only a little sunlight for its leaves to retain (保持)their colour; also, it needs only a little water once a week to survive. If the roots of a palm drink a lot of water, the plant will grow, but this is not ideal when the palm is grown indoors. Palm trees in a pot in the home are watered to keep them alive, not to make them grow bigger.8. When should palm seeds be planted?A. In spring.B. In summer.C. In autumn.D. In winter.9. The price of a palm tree depends on its__________. .A. ageB. widthC. heightD. weight10. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Who likes to buy palm trees.B. How to transport palm trees.C. Why small palm trees are not sold.D. What kind of palm tree is popular.11. An indoor palm tree__________ .A. needs a lot of sunlightB. needs not much waterC. should be grown without central heatingD. should be grown without air conditioningDAre some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount ofeducation can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of person's intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will dependon his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a numberof ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likelyto be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from population,it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If,on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligentas each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusionis also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.12.Which of these sentences best describes the writer’s point in Para graph 1?A.To some extent, intelligence is given at birth.B.Intelligence is developed by the environment.C.Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.D.Some people are born clever and others born stupid.13.It is suggested in this passage that_______.A.the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likelyto be in intelligenceB.unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligenceC.close relations usually have similar intelligenceD.people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees of intelligence14.The phrase “at random”(Line3, para.2) means _______ .A.purposelyB.frequentlyC.independentlyD.aimlessly15.The best title for this article would be_______.A.On Intelligence.B.What Dose Intelligence Mean ?C.We Are Born with Intelligence.D.Environment Plays a Part in Developing Intelligence.七选五根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2023-2024学年重庆市巴蜀中学高二下学期第一次月考英语试题Enveloped by history, style and culture, the City of Light has more than enough to draw visitors all year around. But there are certain times of year when a trip to Paris can be extra-special.Paris Fashion WeekWhen: Men June/July; women March and September/OctoberIn 1943 the world’s first “fashion week” took place in New York. The idea? To offer the Big Apple’s fashion buyers alternatives to the French dresses they were missing out on during the war. Today Paris can claim to be the world’s style capital, with people pouring to its annual fashion weeks. Wear your best dress around the Tuileries Garden and a street-style photographer may even stop you for a shot.Music FestivalWhen: JuneThe streets of Paris come alive with the sound of music every June as free parties and concerts ring throughout the city. The Arab World Institute, the Louvre and Place Denfert-Rochereau are among the best party spots-though we recommend simply wandering. Expect surprises around every corner. Bastille DayWhen: JulyOn July 14 France marks the storming of the Bastille prison — a turning point in the French Revolution. In the morning crowds gather to watch a military parade along the Champs Elysees. Come evening, up to a million people gather as fireworks are set off from the base of the Eiffel Tower. Advantageous position? The top of the Belville Park. Get down early and bring a picnic chair.Grape Harvest FestivalWhen: OctoberYou may have dropped by the Montmartre Museum. But what about the private grape plantation aro und the back of Paris’s hilliest neighborhood? Every year locals come together to celebrate the distinctive grape wine produced here. There’s a charity wine sale, dance parties and, of course, plenty of tasting.1. What was the purpose of the world’s first“fashion week” in New York?A.To promote American fashion designers. B.To display the upcoming fashioncollections.C.To satisfy the fashion needs of New Yorkers. D.To show the development of fashion industry.2. What can you do at Montmartre Grape Harvest Festival?A.Raise funds for charity. B.Join mask dancing parties.C.Appreciate local artwork. D.Try different kinds of wine.3. At which place can you expect to find free parties in Paris in June?A.The Tuileries Garden. B.Place Denfert-Rochereau.C.The Champs Elysees. D.The Belville Park.In the late 1930s, people could donate blood, but very few hospitals could store it for later use. Whole blood breaks down quickly, and there were no methods at the time for safely preserving it. As a result, hospitals often did not have the appropriate blood type when patients needed it. Charles Drew, a Black surgeon and researcher, helped solve this monumental problem for medicine, earning him the title “Father of the Blood Bank.”In 1938, while obtaining hi s doctorate in medicine, Drew became a fellow at Columbia University’s Presbyterian Hospital in New York. He studied the storage and distribution of blood, including the separation of its components, and applied his findings to an experimental blood bank at the hospital.As Drew was finishing his degree at Columbia, World War II was erupting in Europe. Great Britain was asking the United States for desperately needed plasma (血浆) to help victims. Given his expertise, Drew was selected to be the medical director for the Blood for Britain campaign. Using Presbyterian Hospital’s blood bank as a model, Drew established uniform procedures and standards for collecting blood and processing blood plasma from nine New York hospitals. The five-month campaign collected donations from 15,000 Americans and was considered a success. His discoveries and his leadership saved countless lives.With the increasing likelihood that the nation would be drawn into war, the United States wanted to capitalize on what Drew had learned from the campaign. He was appointed as the assistant director of a three-month pilot program to mass-produce dried plasma in New York, which became the model for the first Red Cross blood bank. His innovations for this program included mobile blood donation stations, later called bloodmobiles.4. What problem did hospitals face in the late 1930s regarding blood donations?A.The shortage of blood donors. B.The inability to preserve blood.C.The challenge of blood infection. D.The failure to identify blood types.5. How did Drew contribute to the Blood for Britain campaign?A.He gathered different standards for the blood collection.B.He worked on the bloodmobiles for easy access to donors.C.He helped send life-saving drugs overseas to aid in the war.D.He organized the collection and processing of blood plasma.6. Which of the following best describes the three-month pilot program?A.Groundbreaking. B.Unpredictable. C.Economical. D.Controversial.7. What can be a suitable title for the text?A.The life of Dr. Charles Drew. B.The inventor of the Blood Bank.C.A Savior of Lives during Wartime. D.A Pioneer in Blood Transportation.Her face is framed by wavy brown hair extensions, her filled lips pursed towards the viewer. It could be a description of an Instagram post, but the touched-up (修改过的) beauty is Diana Cecil, an English noblewoman who belongs to a powerful family at the Jacobean court. Experts at English Heritage have discovered that her portrait had been altered by restorers to enhance certain features, suggesting that our modern beauty standards might not be so modern after all.The great-grand-daughter of William Cecil, Lord Burghley, one of Elizabeth I’s closest advisers, Diana was considered one of the great beauties of her age. Yet it seems a later artist had other ideas.A restorer, probably in the 19th century, worked on the painting after it was damaged from being rolled sideways. It seems they also took the opportunity to alter the noblewoman’s face, enlarging her lips and lowering her hairline to reduce the size of her forehead.Now, following careful conservation work, Cecil’s original appearance has been restored, with the full-length portrait-painted by Cornelius Johnson when Cecil was about 31. The conservation team discovered the changes made to the Johnson painting after removing a yellowing layer of oily liquid that had covered its original, more vivid colors. They also surprisedly found the artist’s signature, and a date that had been signed in the portrait’s curtain suggesti ng it was finished in1634 and not 1638 as previously thought.According to Alice Tate-Harte, a conservator at English Heritage, it was not uncommon for people to ‘sweeten’ old paintings in the 19th and early 20th centuries. ”Conservation wasn’t a professi on, they weren’t working in institutions with salaries,” she said. “They were artist restorers and they had a bit more flexibility to prettify and beautify, whereas we have a lot more ethics today. we must keep our retouching to a minimum. I hope I’ve done Diana justice by removing those additions and presenting her natural face to the world.”8. What does the discovery of experts at English Heritage suggest?A.Prettiness is in the eyes of the viewer. B.Every great artist was once an amateur.C.Past norms may repeat themselves at present. D.Beauty souls shine brighter than appearances.9. What do we know about the original portrait of Diana Cecil?A.The original beauty failed to entertain the restorer B.The portrait was in fact painted for William Cecil.C.The painter intended to hide the beauty of Diana. D.The age of Diana was exposed by her hairline.10. Which of the following is an unexpected finding from the conservation work?A.The addition of the bright color. B.The portrait’s date of completion.C.The removal of the artist’s signature.D.The extent of damage to the painting.11. What does Alice think is the duty of art conservation?A.It means an artistic way of living. B.It depends on artists’ preference.C.It requires ethical considerations. D.It represents the fashion of time.When middle school math teachers completed an online professional development (PD) program that uses artificial intelligence to improve their math knowledge and teaching skills, their students’ math performance improved.This online professional development program relies on a virtual facilitator to present problems and provide feedback, aiming to enhance teachers’ mastery of knowledge and skills required. It covers why mathematical rules and procedures work and focuses on helping students employ instructional tools and strategies to overcome common struggles.An experiment was conducted in which 53 middle school math teachers were randomly assigned to either this Al-based professional development or no additional training. On average, teachers spent 11 hours to complete the program. We then gave 1,727 of their students a math test. While students of these two groups of teachers started off with no difference in their math performance, the students taught by teachers who completed the program increased their mathematics performance by 0.18 points on average. This is a statistically significant gain that is equal to the average math performance difference between sixth and seventh graders in the study.Teachers often have limited access to high-quality PD programs to improve their knowledge and teaching skills. Time conflicts or living in rural areas that are far from in-person professional development programs can prevent teachers from receiving the support they need. Additionally, many existing in-person professional development programs for teachers have little impact on student achievement. AI-based PD programs include opportunities for teachers to observe teaching practices. Teachers also receive real-time support from the program facilitators. The Al-supported virtual facilitator acting as a human instructor gives teachers authentic teaching activities to work on, asks questions and provides real-time feedback and guidance.Advancements in AI technologies will allow researchers to develop more interactive, personalized learning environments for teachers. More importantly, AI-based PD programs can collect rich, real-time interaction data, which help make programs more effective. Despite billions of dollars being spent each year on professional development for teachers, research suggests that how teachers learn through professional development is not yet well understood.12. What was the goal of the online professional development program?A.To create widely accessible methods B.To improve teachers’ teaching skills.C.To solve students’ common problems.D.To analyze students’ math performance. 13. How did the students taught by the teachers of the AI-based PD program perform?A.They exhibited statistically significant improvement.B.They performed even better than the seventh graders.C.They solved the math problem faster than the average.D.They started with lower performance but ended higher.14. How does the author highlight AI-based PD programs in paragraph 4?A.By listing current shortcomings. B.By clarifying essential concepts.C.By providing theoretical models. D.By comparing different trainings.15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.There is a demand for larger investments in professional development.B.AI technologies have helped us figure out how teachers learn in trainings.C.The expected benefits of teacher training programs have yet to be realized.D.It is a must for teachers to complete the professional development programs.JOMO refers to the “joy of missing out” — in short, unplugging from all media, practicing self-care, reconnecting to the present moment, and learning to appreciate the inner peace of being alone. JOMO is especially important for digital natives. 16 They have grown up in a world where social media is an essential part of their lives. Unplugging (拔掉电源插头) from the devices can help by giving us a break from the cruel social comparison that may be at the root of a lot of the anxiety. The following strategies can help you find joy in missing out.Make a list of activities you really enjoy doing.Post it in an accessible place so that at a moment’s notice, you’ve got a reminder of activities that bring you joy. 17Take regular tech breaks.A lot of FOMO (fear of missing out) is generated by scrolling through social media and the resulting social comparisons that inevitably happen. 18 Ground yourself in the present moment.Invest in offline connections with others.This can include family, partners, friends, and neighbors. 19 A brief on-site activity is a better way to build meaningful relationships than investing untold nights in connecting with relative strangers online.20This is often the most difficult thing to do for those with demanding fast-pa ced lives, but it’s essential to stay well and to take care of ourselves. It might be a solo nature walk, a warm bath, meditation, or soothing music — whatever makes you feel more comfortable in your own skin.Mike Huddleston had flown from Maryland to San Francisco and needed to get to a rental car agency.

"And in terms of legal enforcement,only one organization is standing out,and that is the Wildlife Alliance." He noted that the group had carried out a number of successful crackdowns against hunting.But there were few major campaigns on wildlife hunting.as a whole.Protected areas within forests have disappeared at the same rate as forests in other parts of the country Poaching and hunting have led to the loss of animal and plant species in Cambodia.To Chantha Nasak,a wildlife expert,the damage to wildlife habitats is the main reason for the decrease in the number of wild animals.He says the destruction of forests and the use of land for agricultural and other purposes are the biggest threats,as well as the climate change.However.there are already agreements between some NGOs and the Cambodian government to help wild species.Also,Chantha Nasak says some communities are working together to protect wildlife around the country."All Cambodian citizens should join hands in the protection of wildlife,not just the NGOs and the government," he said. "It should be everyone."(1)What problem did Suy meet in his photography work?A.Cambodians have a poor knowledge of protecting wildlife.B.Cambodians are lacking their culture of hunting.C.Cambodians like major campaigns on hunting wildlife.D.Cambodians have limited education about hunting.(2)How do the rich find wild meat in Cambodia?A.It contains high nutrition.B.It is free of chemicals.C.It tastes delicious and fresh.D.It is a symbol of social positions.(3)What is the main factor in leading to the decrease in wild animals Chantha thinks ?A.The climate change.B.The wild meat trade.C.The damage to wildlife habitats.D.The still-not-prohibited hunting.(4)What is the main idea of the text?A.A Cambodian is teaching the hunting culture.B.A photographer has a good knowledge of wildlife.C.A photographer is struggling with poachers.D.A Cambodian photographer urges to protect wildlife.阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Find out in Little Brother by American author Cory Doctorow. It is a fascinating book for a new generation of sci-fi readers.Marcus Yallow, 17, from San Francisco is much more comfortable in front of a computer than obeying the rules of society. Smart, fast and wise to the ways of the networked world, he has no trouble outwitting (骗过) his high school's monitoring system. This way he and his friends get to head off to play a popular online game in real life.While they are playing, a bomb explodes on the Bay Bridge. Marcus stops a military vehicle to get help for his injured friend, but this simple act throws him into a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) secret prison. There he is treated as a possible terrorist. He is eventually let go after four days, but his injured friend disappears.When he returns, Marcus discovers that there are many "security measures" in place and that now all citizens are treated like potential terrorists. While some consider this government action necessary for public safety, Marcus sees this as a complete destruction of the rights he is supposed to have as a citizen.He knows that no one will believe his story, which leaves him with only one thing to do: to take down the DHS himself. He helps organize a large network called Xnet to spread the truth, anonymously (匿名地).The book presents a young man who is irresponsible, but learns about himself, and grows, in the course of the story. As part of this learning and growing he becomes aware of very serious issues about his society.21. What kind of article does this passage belong to?A. A fascinating story.B. A book review.C. News reportD. A TV programme22. The underlined word destruction in the passage means .A. damageB. rewardC. ruinD. protection23. Marcus Yallow was sent to prison because .A. he killed his friendB. he bombed a military vehicleC. he did something that a possible terrorist could doD. his injured friend disappeared24. From the second paragraph we can infer that Marcus Yallow .A. is much more comfortable obeying the rules of societyB. is smart, fast and wise in real lifeC. always plays online games in real lifeD. is expert at the network world25. In the end of the book, Marcus Yallow .A. is supposed to be more irresponsibleB. becomes aware of very serious issues about his societyC. presents a young man who is irresponsibleD. plays a popular online game in real lifeBWhen an emergency situation occurs, observers are more likely to take action if there are few or no other witnesses. This phenomenon is referred to as the bystander effect.The bystander effect is also called the Genovese effect, which is named after Catherine “Kitty" Genovese, a young woman who was cruelly murdered on March 13, 1964. Early in the morning, 28-year-old Genovese was returning home from work. As she approached her apartment entrance, she was attacked and stabbed (刺) by a man later identified as Winston Moseley. Despite Genovese's repeated cries for help, none of the dozen or so people in the nearby apartment building who heard her cries called police for help. The attack first began at 3:20, but it was not until 3:50 that someone first contacted police.Many psychologists were set thinking by the incident, as well as most Americans. As the conclusion, the bystander effect came out and later proved by a series of studies and experiments.There are two major factors that contribute to the bystander effect. First, the presence of other people creates a division of responsibility. Because there are other observers, individuals do not feel as much pressure to take action, since the responsibility to take action is thought to be shared among all of those present. The second reason is the need to behave in correct and socially acceptable ways. When other observers fail to react, individuals often take this as a signal that a response is not needed or not appropriate. Other researchers have found that onlookers are less likely to take action if the situation is ambiguous. In the case of Kitty Genovese, many of the 38 witnes ses reported that they believed that they were witnessing a "lovers' quarrel", and did not realize that the young woman was actually being murdered.26. The bystander effect is also called the Genovese effect because a woman surnamed Genovese.A. it somehow caused the murder ofB. its discovery resulted from the murder ofC. it was actually discovered byD. it always makes people think of27. Genovese was murdered .A. while she was going outB. in her apartmentC. halfway homeD. near he r apartment28. Which can NOT have been a possible reason for the neighbors NOT offering Genovese help?A. They believed in the bystander effect.B. They thought someone else might help her.C. They didn't think they should help.D. They didn't think she needed help.29. Before deciding to offer help, observers may , according to the psychologists.A. wait for sort of a signalB. hesitate and estimate the risk of getting hurtC. want to be sure it's appropriate to reactD. wonder if the victim is worth helping30. The article seems to suggest that, if there had been observers, Genovese might not have been murdered.A. noB. fewerC. moreD. braverCFive years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. "I was a clothes addict, "he jokes." I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled." Today David wears casual clothes – khaki pants and sports shirt – to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. "I'm working harder than ever," David says, "and I need to feel comfortable."More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. In the United States, the change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday, but only on Friday. This became known as "dress-down Friday" or "casual Friday." "What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing." said business consultant Maisly Jones.Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it's easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. "A lot of young people don't want to dress up for work," says the owner of a software company, "so it's hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code." Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves e mployee morale (士气). Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative effect on productivity. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. "Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day," one person said. "For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes."31. David Smith refers to himself as having been "a clothes addict,"because .A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtB. he couldn't stand a clean appearanceC. he wanted his clothes to look neat all the timeD. he didn't want to spend much money on clothes32. David Smith wears casual clothes now, because .A. they make him feel at ease when workingB. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothesC. he looks handsome in casual clothesD. he no longer works for any company33. According to this passage, which of the following statements is FALSE?A. Many employees don't like a conservative dress code.B. Comfortable clothes make employees more productive.C. A casual clothes code is welcomed by young employees.D. All the employers in the U.S. are for casual office wear.34. According to this passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Company workers started to dress down about twenty years ago.B. Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990s.C. "Dress-down Friday" was first given as a favor from employers.D. Many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people.35. In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned except .A. saving employees' moneyB. making employees more attractiveC. improving employees' motivationD. making employees happierDChinese netizens who like to create and use cyber words such as "geilivable" might find a new regulation very "ungeilivable". The new regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication last week banned the use of Chinglish words created by netizens for publishing in the Chinese language."Geilivable", combining the pinyin geili (giving strength) with the English suffix (后缀) for adjectives, literally means "giving power" or "cool". Differen t suffixes and prefixes were then added to the word. "Hengeilivable" means "very cool", and "ungeilivable" means "dull, not cool at all".Cyber language is popular among Chinese netizens, who create Chinglish words to reflect phenomenon in society. One example is "antizen", which refers to college graduates who earn a meager salary and live in small rented apartments, like tiny and laborious ants.David Tool, a professor with the Beijing International Studies University, said it's very interesting to combine Chinese with English to create new words. "English is no longer mysterious to the Chinese people. They can use the language in a flexible way according to their own experiences," Tool said.At the announcement of the regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication, netizens expressed their concern."The administration is totally 'ungeilivable'," said a netizen named laoda1713. "I know other netizens will shed tears with me... it is a good chance to enrich our language". "Language is always developing," said a columnist, Wang Pei. "It needs to be updated to absorb foreign culture and folk wisdom."But an unnamed official with the administration said that, in fact, many senior staff from news media who supported the regulation were worried that years later, the younger generation would forget how to use formal Chinese expressions. The official also pointed out that the regulation was only for formal publications in Chinese language, and it only banned Chinglish words in the publication.36. The new regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication may be aimed at .A. simplifying the Chinese languageB. limiting the development of languageC. banning the use of ChinglishD. making the netizens more serious37. The underlined word meager in the third paragraph probably means .A. poorB. flexibleC. highD. plentiful38. From this passage we can infer that .A. the Chinese people like their own language onlyB. the English words are considered informal in ChinaC. nobody in China will support the new regulationD. "geilivable" will be popular among Chinese netizens39. Which may be the title of this passage?A. New regulation is announcedB. Cyber words make language livelyC. Different views about cyber languageD. New phenomenon in China40. On which column of China Daily can you find this passage?A. EntertainmentB. BusinessC. TravelD. Opinion第Ⅱ卷(共70 分)三.语法填空。
