Two members and one non﹣member should pay for the program.A.$690B. $710C. $730D. $750BMy challenge for you is this: to read a book for 15minutes every single day for a month.Let me explain a bit, by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isn't one of them.I can happily spend a whole day with a book, but my dad can't read a book for longer than about5 minutes. He reads emails, websites and papers for work, but not books. He's busy, so I think sitting down to read for just 15minutes a day is a good way to relax and to introduce him to reading.My dad is not the only person who avoids books. I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but Ithink there are lots of benefits to reading, which screen﹣based activities don't have.Firstly, it's better for your eyes. Looking at screens can be very stressful for your eye muscles, and clearly you should avoid looking at screens for an hour before bed, to get a good night's sleep.One thing I personally love reading, is being transported to another world﹣I often forget the time or things around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed, because you think more about the world of the book, rather than the real world, so you can truly relax.I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show, but I think books do it better.I also enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what they think. Reading gives me the chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see things from other people's point of view, and understand other people's decisions or opinions. With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feeling﹣you really can be inside someone else's head!So give it a go! Take 15 minutes when you are waking up, going to bed, eating lunch, or having a coffee. If you read a lot, why not try 15 minutes of an English book, or pass the challenge on to someone else？Good luck, and happy reading!24.The author mentions his father in the text to show .A. his father is busyB. reading is importantC. his father likes readingD. many people have no habit of reading25.The author writes the text mainly basing on .A. his personal experienceB. some scientific experimentsC. his father's personal adviceD. knowledge from books26.The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 5 refers to .A. helping readers sleep wellB. making readers feel relaxedC. transporting readers to a different worldD. reminding readers of the real world27.What is the author's attitude to reading？A. Negative.B. Uncertain.C. Supportive.D. Doubtful.CKathy could still remember the night she had to leave her home in Hungary. It was the beginning of World War II and her family had to leave their country as soon as possible. She quickly filled a bag with a few pieces of clothing. her diary. and her treasure﹣a beautiful silk scarf.Kathy and her best friend. Monica. had asked their parents to buy them matching scarves. They each would wear the scarves as a symbol of their friendship. Kathy had no idea that she was going to America that night and would not be returning.Kathy kept that special silk scarf for many years. One day she decided to give it to her granddaughter. Eliza. to wear to her first job interview for good luck. Kathy was afraid that Eliza would lose the scarf. but the granddaughter promised. "Don't worry. Grandma. nothing's going to happen to your scarf. You'll see. It is going to bring both of us luck today." And with that. Eliza kissed her grandmother and left for the interview.That afternoon Eliza left the interview. feeling sure that she had got the job. So she decided to celebrate by going to a restaurant. As she was sitting at her table. she felt someone looking at her. Sitting next to her was an old woman. who could not take her eyes away from her."I'm sorry. do I know you？" Eliza asked."I'm sorry. dear. but you make me think of someone I once knew." the old woman replied. "My best friend looked like you and used to wear a scarf just like the one you're wearing around your neck." Eliza listened carefully. with her eyes and mouth wide open. She had heard stories of her grandmother's best friend and knew the meaning of the scarf. Could this be Monica. her grandmother's childhood friend？Eliza introduced herself and waited to hear the name of the other woman."My name's Monica. dear. I lived in Hungary as a child. but my family had to leave when I was fourteen years old. I've been living here in California ever since." said the old woman.Eliza could not believe her ears ……28.Kathy and her family left their country because .A. Kathy found a job in the USAB. Kathy would study in CaliforniaC. they had no friends in EuropeD. they wanted to get away from the war29..From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 6. we can infer（推断）that Eliza felt .A. surprisedB. thankfulC. sorryD. nervous30.What would Eliza most probably do after the dinner？A. She gave the silk scarf to Monica.B. She went for another job interview.C. She showed Monica around California.D. She took Monica to meet her grandmother.31.The best title for this passage can be .A. A Gift from ParentsB. A Scarf of LuckC. A Successful InterviewD. A Story in the WarDCan dogs and cats get along well in the same home？People who are thinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog. and if they are introduced when still young （less than 6 months for cats. a year for dogs）. it is highly probable that the two pets will get along smoothly. In two﹣thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship.However. it wasn't all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes. while aggression（侵略.好斗）and fighting were found in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different. For example. when a cat turns its head away it means aggression. while a dog doing the same means submission（顺从）.In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully. researchers found a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other's language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk "Dog". and dogs can learn how to talk "Cat".What's interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter. They can learn to read each other's body languages. suggesting that the two may have more in common than was expected. Once familiar with each other's body language. cats and dogs can play together. and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa.The importance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets ﹣to people who don't get along well. including neighbors. colleagues at work. and even countries. If cats and dogs can learn to get along. surely people have a good chance.32.Some cats and dogs may fight when .A. they are cold to each otherB. they look away from each otherC. they are introduced at an early ageD. they misunderstand each other's body languages33.What is found surprising about cats and dogs?A.They learn to speak each other`s language.B.They watch each other`s behaviors.C.They eat and sleep together.D.They know something from each other`s voices.34. It is suggested in Paragraph4 that cats and dogsA.have common interests.B.are less different than was thought.C.have a common body language.D.are not so smart as was expected.35.What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs？A. We should learn to get along well with others.B. We should know more about animals.C. We should live in peace with animals.D. We should learn more body languages.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.选项中有两项为多余选项。

人教版高中上学期12月份月考综合检测高一英语试卷I听力II阅读理解AJames Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and grandson of black slaves. His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9. There a school teacher asked his name.“J.C.,” he replied. She thought he had said “Jesse”, so he had a new name.Owens ran his first race at age 13. After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part-time so as to pay for his education. As a second year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.A week before the Big Ten meet, Ovens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event. He did try, and the results are in the record book.The stage was set for Ovens victory at the Olympic Games inBerlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African American winners.“It was all right with me,” he said years later. “I didn’t go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone call from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four year before his death.Ovens’ Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles and dogs.“Sure, it bothered me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”In time, however, his gold medals changed his life. “They have kept m e alive over the years,” he once said. “Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard.”21.Ovens got his other name “Jesse” when ______.A. he went to Ohio State UniversityB. his teacher made fun of himC. his teacher took “J.C.” for “Jesse”D. he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet22. In the Big Ten meet, Ovens ______.A. hurt himself in the backB. succeeded in setting many recordsC. tried every sports event but failedD. had to give up some events23.When Ovens said “They have kept me alive over the years” in the last paragraph, he means that the medals ______.A. have been changed for money to help him live onB. have made him famous in the USC. have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in lifeD. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs24.What would be the best title for the text?A. Jesse Ovens ― a great American sportsmanB. Golden moment ― a lifetime memoryC. Making a living as a sportsmanD. Why was Jesse Ovens successful?BOne of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap.On September 11th, 1958, mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my arms, saying, “I promised you a gift, and here it i s.” What an honor! I became four years old a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told stories. I told it again and again how much I loved it!One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept(哭泣) and told me that the poor littlething had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days, I heard mum and dad whispering such words as “hopeless”, “pitiful”and “dying”, and all these words sounded ominous.Christmas was coming. “Don’t expect any presents this year,” Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living rooms. “If your baby brother lives, that’ll be Christmas enough.” As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears. I had never seen him cry before.The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say, “What? He’s all right?”He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home!”“Thank God!” I hea rd mum cry.From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty：they were filled with love!25. What happened to the author on September 11th, 1958 ?A. He got a baby brother.B. He got a Christmas gift.C. He became four years old.D. He received a doll.26. What does the underlined word “ominous” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Impossible.B. BoringC. FunnyD. Fearful27. Which word can best describe the feeling of the father when Christmas was coming?A. ExcitementB. HappinessC. DisappointmentD. SadnessCRemember that goals are dreams with a timetable. Our goals are important for us to create what enriches our life. A very common attitude among people who are successful is that their success lies in their ability to provide themselves goals that are both numerous and exciting. When you think about your future,you are helping to feed a long-term goal of what you want to create.To realize your dreams,you must translate your vision into a series of actions you can take as soon as possible. You should be able to measure these results,to make sure they take you wherever you want. And this step should not be viewed lightly! Indeed,very few people set goals and concrete actions for themselves to achieve. Very few people note what they want to accomplish,and know each day whether they have indeed advanced in the direction of their dreams.Therefore one of the secrets that you can get results from is to write down your goals on paper first. When you give your dreams a form,they become more concrete,and you can refer to them often and easily. Whenever you read the dreams that you note down,you fill your mind with positive and motivational thoughts.Unfortunately,many people stop there. They just simply make wishes, hope and wait. These people do not bring positive difference in their lives,because that sort of behavior is just wishful thinking. Success is not at all a miracle. It depends on clear and realistic targets through serious thoughts:concrete actions and perseverance(毅力). Don’t forget,your past does not determine your future. Only your now is your potential!28. People can achieve success commonly in that they__________.A. have many dreamsB. are well-informed of how goals goC. think a lot about their bright futureD. know what the goals are in their life29. If you put down your goals on the paper,you can__________.A. know clearly what should be doneB. make them accomplished smoothlyC. measure the results of the goals easilyD. mention them easily to others30. The last paragraph mainly tells that__________.A. having dreams is very important to everyoneB. to translate goals into concrete actions is important for successC. what people did in the past affects what the are todayD. most people can make a difference in their life31. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Path towards Your TargetsB. The Process ofMaking GoalsC. The Power of Your GoalsD. The Importance of Your SuccessDThe universe looks like a pretty quiet place to live. But the universe is filled with dangerous things, all struggling to be the one to wipe us off the planet. Happily for us, they’re all pretty unlikely, but if you wait long enough, one of them is certain to get us. But which one?1. Death by Asteroid (小行星)Of all the ways we might meet our untimely death, getting wiped out by an asteroid is the most likely. Why? Because we sit in a universal shooting gallery, with 100 tons of material hitting us every day. The problem, though, occurs every few centuries when something big this way comes. If you could ask a dinosaur, I’d imagine they would tell you to take this seriously.2. Death by Exploding StarWhen a huge star ends its life, it does so with a bang, which sends death spreading across space in the form of high-energy radiation. Many studies show that the bang would have to be closer than about 75 light years to do us any harm. The good news: no stars so close are able to do the deed.3. Death by Dying SunThe sun is imp ortant to us; without it, we’d freeze. But the sun isalso middle-aged, already halfway to running out of fuel, expanding into a red giant, and cooking us to a fine crisp. Even long before then, it’ll warm up enough to raise our average temperature and cause a runaway greenhouse effect, boiling our oceans.Happily, that’s a long time from now.4. Death by Black HoleBlack holes are misunderstood. They don’t wander the galaxy looking for tasty snacks in the form of planets and stars; they turn around the Milky Way just like the hundreds of billions of other stars do. But it’s possible that one could wander too close to us. If it did, planetary paths would be disturbed, causing the Earth to drop into the sun or be thrown out into deep space.Given that it could be trillions of years or more before even that happens, we don’t have to worry too much about black holes.My advice? Go outside, look up, enjoy the sun, the moon, and the stars. They may be there forever as far as any one of us is concerned…and forever is a long, long time.32.The underlined word “this” probably refers to ________.A. getting wiped out by a dinosaurB. an untimely deathC. a cosmic shooting galleryD. 100 tons of material33.Which of the following will cause the earth’s aver age temperature to go up dramatically?A. The dying sun.B. The black hole.C. The asteroid.D. The exploding star.34.Which of the following statement is possible about black holes?A. They wander the galaxy.B. One of them wanders very close to the earth.C. They turn around the galaxy.D. They look for planets and stars.35.While the author is introducing the ways the universe could wipe out humankind, he is ________ us.A. warningB. comfortingC. entertainingD. ignoring七选五Ireland now has one of the best education systems in the world. Class sizes are small, exam results are good and most children are happy to stay at school after the minimum(最低的)leaving age of sixteen. 36For years, Ireland had one of the most complicated(复杂的) education systems in the world. 37 Classes were large and the teaching was very traditional. As in many countries, teachers used to hit the children if they made mistakes. Fortunately, the punishment was not allowed in 1982.38 As a result, there were schools for the rich and schools for the poor. Boys and girls went to different schools. Nowadays, most schools are free and only about half the schools are either forgirls or boys. 39 Girls do better than boys in their exams; more girls go to university and most teachers are women.At the end of secondary school, students take their final exams. Compulsory(必修的)subjects are maths, Irish and English. 40 Some of these, like business organization, help to prepare them for the world of work. This is very different from the past when Latin and Greek used to be the most important subjects.A. In many ways, education is now a woman’s world.B. Parents used to pay for their chi ldren’s education.C. In addition, they must choose two or three extra subjects.D. Public schools in Ireland are not run by the government.E. It is easy to forget that the picture used to be very different.F. Here, children do not learn any subjects but some basic skills.G. There were many different kinds of school, but most of them had a lot in common.III完形填空When we talk about a wolf, we tend to describe it as a kind fierce creature. But is it really true that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness?Have you read the book “The Wolf Totem” (《狼图腾》) by a famous writer Jiang Rong, which tells the story of the relationship between wolves and human beings? Have you ever 41 the wolves' world? If you had, you would 42 the wolves. In the book, wolves are heroes on the large grassland. They know moreabout 43 than humans. They can attack lambs without disturbing their mothers. They also know how to 44 full use of the shape of land to 45 sheep. I believe that if wolves were humans, they would be 46 at fighting.The wolf is a kind of special creature that can deeply understand 47 . Each wolf serves its group with its heart and soul. A 48 wolf has little power, but a pack of wolves 49 nothing. All the wolves obey the rules. 50 they are defeated, they run away together. It is their teamwork 51 makes wolves powerful.The wolves also have great self-preservation and won't 52 to anyone. The writer, who wrote the book “The Wolf Totem” , 53 stole a one-month-old baby wolf and raised it very carefully. To his 54 , he found the little wolf still wanted to go back with 55 wolves. The little wolf bit through the iron chain that limited it. The wolf was 56 and never gave up fighting 57 its death. It seemed that the little wolf died as a glorious fighter.I was shocked by this kind of 58 wolves which are one of the most respected creature on the earth. I want everyone to look at wolves in a 59 way. They are our teachers. They show us how to survive and 60 this not simple but dangerous world. Please honor the wolves, please honor all these heroes of nature! 41. A. talked about B. walked into C. thought about D. cared for42. A. hunt B. watch C. draw D. admire43.

AAnn was on her first package trip in Rosas, Spain.At the hotel, she checked in, and then went to her room to change before dinner. She was just ready to go downstairs when she found that her Spanish money wasn’t in her handbag. She carefully looked in all her luggage, but she couldn’t find it. All she had was a small purse钱包with ten English pound notes in it!Ann found a place to change her English money. She had very few pesetas (西班牙货币单位), and she would be here for two weeks. On her way back to the hotel, Ann bought some cheese, some bread and some oranges. When she got back, she told the manager that her doctor had told her not to eat Spanish food; she’d just have breakfast each day, as she knew the price of hotels included breakfast.For the rest of her holiday, Ann swam in the hotel swimming pool, or lay onthe beach and got a sunbath. When the other tourists went to interesting places, she always said she wasn’t well. In fact, her holiday wasn’t bad, except that she was always hungry.

Almost 20 percent of this area is well below sea level, and Badwater, a salt water pool, is about 280 feet below sea level and the lowest point in the United States.Long ago the Indians called this place “Tomesha”—the land of fire. Death Valley’s present name dates bac k to 1849, when a group of miners coming from Nevada became lost in its unpleasantness and hugeness and their adventure turned out to be a sad story. Today Death Valley has been called a National Monument (遗迹) and is crossed by several well-marked roads where good services can be found easily. Luckily the change created by human settlement has scarcely (几乎没有) ruined the special beauty of this place.Here nature created a lot of surprising sights, almost like the sights on the moon, ever-changing as the frequent (频繁的) wind moves the sand about, showing the most unusual colors. One of the most astonishing and changeable parts of Death Valley is the Devil’s Golf Course, where it seems hard for one to tell reality from terrible dreams. Sand sculptures (沙雕) stand ona frightening ground as evening shadows move and lengthen.25. According to the first paragraph, ______ is the lowest place in the UnitedStates.A. TomeshaB. Death ValleyC. NevadaD. Badwater26. Devil Golf Course is famous for _______.A. the frequent windB. the colors of the sandC. dream-like sightsD. the sand sculptures27.

Perhaps you can’t answer that question quickly. In 1900 the world’s use of paper was about one kilogram for each person in a year. Now some countries use as much as 100 kilograms of paper for each person in a year. The amount of paper a country uses shows how far advanced the country is, some people say. It is difficult to say whether this is true: different people mean different things by the word “advanced”. But countries like the United States, England and Sweden certainly use more paper than other countries.Paper, like many other things that we use today, was first made in China. In Egypt and the West, paper was not very commonly used before the year 1400.The Chinese first made paper about 2,000 years ago. China still has piecesof paper which were made as long ago as that. But Chinese paper was not made from the wood of trees. It was made from the hairlike parts of certain plants.Paper was not made in southern Europe until about the year 1100. Scandinavia — which now makes a great deal of the world’s paper —did not begin to make it until 1500. It was a German named Schaeffer who found out that trees could be made into the best paper. After that, the forest countries of Canada, Sweden, Norway, Finland, and the United States became the most important in paper making. Today in Finland, which makes the best paper in the world, the paper industry is the biggest in the land.28. The underlined word “advanced” in the first paragraph probably means ________.A. bigB. smallC. developedD. beautiful29. Paper was first made in ________.A. ChinaB. EgyptC. the WestD. southern Europe30. The man who first made paper from trees was a (an) ___.A. ChineseB. EgyptianC. CanadianD. German31. Which country makes the best paper in the world today?A.

But no one knows whether the action will work. After all, bird flu has been there for more than two years and killed so many people.32.

马营中学2015—2016学年度第一学期阶段性考试2019-2020年高一上学期12月阶段性考试英语试题含答案第 卷第一部分阅读理解（共两节，共40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡将该项涂黑.ASome people say that the best way to reduce the size of your waist is to do stomach exercise. Many people believe that when specific muscles are exercised, the fatty tissues (组织) in the immediate area are burned up. The truth is that exercise burns fat from all over the body and not from one specific area. Of course, if you reduce the fat throughout your body, you will certainly see results around your waist too.Some people believe that you need to exercise twice a week in order to keep a sufficient level of physical fitness. However, studies directed by American scientists show that unexercised muscles lose their strength very quickly. Within 48 to 72 hours, you must use the muscles again to reestablish (重建) the good physical effects. And what does that mean to you? American scientists concluded that while daily exercise is most helpful, exercising every other day or three days a week will keep a sufficient level of physical fitness.Is it true that you burn more calories running one mile than walking the same distance? The answer is no. The truth is that you use the same amount of energy whether you walk or run the mile, since in both cases you are moving the same weight the same distance. The speed does not matter. Of course, if you run rather than walk for 30 minutes, you will cover more distance, and therefore burn more calories.If your breathing doesn’t return to normal within 5 minutes after you finish exercising, you have exercised too much. Five minutes or so after exercising, your breathing should be normal, your heart shouldn’t be beating loudly, and you shouldn’t be tired.1. If you want to reduce the fat around your waist, you should _______.A. do stomach exerciseB. exercise all the muscles of your bodyC. run fast for 30 minutesD. exercise the waist2. From the second paragraph, we learn that _______.A. we only need to exercise twice a weekB. we should exercise three times a weekC. muscles lose their strength after 48 hoursD. we should exercise every other day, or three days a week3. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that _________ .A． you will lose more weight running one hour than walking one hourB. whether you run one mile or walk the same distance, you use the same amount of energyC. you will lose more weight running one mile than walking the same distanceD. both A and B4. If you have exercised too much, _______.A. your breathing will take longer than 5 minutes to return to normal after youfinish exercisingB. your breathing will return to normal within 5 minutes after finishing exercisingC. your heart will not be beating loudlyD. you will be too tired to moveBAs we all know， the Dragon Boat Festival is our country’s traditional festival，but do you know there is also a Dragon Boat Festival in South Korea， which also falls on May 5 of the lunar calendar(阴历)？ It has been reported that South Korea will apply to United Nations Educational， Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO 联合国教科文组织) to make the celebration of the Dragon Boat Festival its own intangible cultural heritage (非物质的文化遗产). If successful， people from other countries may see the Dragon Festival as a Korean creation.As the birthplace of the yearly event more than 2,000 years ago， China is not happy with the situation. “It would be a shame if another country successfully made a traditional Chinese festival part of its own cultural heritage ahead of China，”said Zhou Heping， deputy(副) culture minister. The Chinese Ministry of Culture is even thinking of making its own application(申请) to UNESCO， covering all traditional Chinese festivals， including the Dragon Boat event. It is thought that the festival is held in memory of the great poet Qu Yuan (340－278 BC)， who lived in the State of Chu during the Warring States Period. Qu was known to be a patriot (爱国者) and admired by ordinary people.He is said to have jumped into Miluo River， because he had lost hope in his country’s future. When people heard about Qu,s death， they sailed up and down the river searching for his body. They also beat the drums to frighten away the fish and threw Zongzi into the water to stop the fish touching Qu. Dragon boat racing is said to come from this search for the poet’s body.Over the years， the Dragon Boat Festival has spread throughout the world. In Japan and Vietnam， as well as South Korea， the festival has mixed with and become part of the local culture.5. The Dragon Boat Festival_________.A. was created by South KoreaB. comes from South KoreaC. is also kept by South KoreaD. is South Korea’s cultural heritage6. What is the reaction(反应) of the Chinese Ministry of Culture to South Korea’s planning to make the Dragon Boat Festival its own cultural heritage？A. Fighting against South Korea.B. Telling South Korea it’s not right to do so.C. Considering to do the similar thing.D. Asking South Korea not to do so.7. What is the purpose of holding the Dragon Boat Festival？A. In honor of QuYuan’s birthday.B. In memory of all the patriots of China.C. To frighten away the fish.D. In memory of Qu Yuan.8. After QuYuan’s death， Zongzi was thrown into the water to ________.A. feed himB. protect his body from going badC. prevent the fish biting his bodyD. attract his soulCLaptop computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.West lake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a＄10 million computer program at West lake, a 110-year-old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e-mail to“speak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees-anywhere at all!Because of the many changes in computer technology , laptop use in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. In addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.At West lake College, more than 60 percent of the staff use computers. The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one West lake teacher said,“ Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we’re giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything.”9. The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each student a laptop to ________.A.work at homeB. access the InternetC. use for their schoolworkD. connect them to libraries10. Why is the word “speak” in the second paragraph in quotation marks(引号)?A.They can't speak in public.B. They don’t really talk.C. Laptops have speakers.D. They use body language11. A window on the world in the last paragraph means that students can ________.A. attend lectures on information technologyB. travel around the worldC. get information from around the worldD. have free laptops12. What can we infer from the passage?A.We don’t know the result yetB. The program is not workable.C. The program is too expensive.D. The program is successful.DAfter giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a spe¬cial student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”La st summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before: Dear Dick,My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me.I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.Your friend,Matthew13.

AVery soon the Rabbit noticed Alice, as she went hunting about, and called out to her, “What are you doing out here? Run home this moment，and fetch me a pair of gloves and a fan! Quick, now!”Alice was so much frightened that she ran off at once in the direction it pointed to. She saw a little house, on the door of which was a plate with the name “W. RABBIT”. She went in and hurried upstairs.By this time she had found her way into a tidy little room with a table in the ^window, and on it a fan and two or three pairs of tiny white kid gloves：she took up the fan and a pair of the gloves，and was just going to leave the room, when her eye fell upon a little bottle that stood nearthe looking-glass. There was no label (标签）this time with the words % DRINK ME’9 but she opened it and put it to her lips. “I know something interesting is sure to happen，”she said to herself. Before she had drunk half the bottle，she found her head touching the ceiling. She went on growing and very soon had to get down on her knees on the floor. Still she went on growing, and as a last resource, she put one arm out of the window，and one foot up the chimney(烟)，and said to herself，“Now I can do no more，whatever happens. What will happen to me?”Luckily for Alice, she grew no longer：still it was very uncomfortable, and as there seemed to be no sort of chance of her ever getting out of the room again, no wonder she felt unhappy.21.

It is also a beautiful village with shops, restaurants ,and hotels.It is well-known as the place of the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympics. While many travelers visit here for outdoor activities, others come to this beautiful town simply to get away from cities and enjoy the clean mountain air. Whether you come to Lake Placid for adventure or rest，you’ll surely enjoy your stay here.Old ForgeLocated(坐落于）in New York State, Old Forge is a deeply-wooded town with many rivers and lakes. It is a place where many people come to spend their summers. Biking, boating 9 and skiing are all popular sports in Old Forge. And on rainy days, the town’s small shops become the best places for people to look for special local gifts. If you are looking for a quiet place to keep away from trouble, Old Forge is a good choice.LeavenworthThis comfortable mountain village is just a few hours drive to the east of Seattle. Many people from Seattle and from the rest of the country come here to enjoy the local shops and delicious German food. Outside of Leavenworth, you will find some of the best views in Washington.

The person on the other end has a sad tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to. You are still in a wonderful mood(心情）？Impossible!Communicating with negative people can wash out your happiness. It may not change what you think, but communicating long enough with them will make you feel unhappy for a moment or a long time.Life brings ups and downs, but some people are trapped in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer. They only feel glad when they make others feel bad. It is not strange that they can hardly win others’ pity or respect.When you communicate with happy people, you will stay happy. When the knife of a negative person is put in you, you feel the heavy feeling that, all in all，brings you down.Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. This could be a co-worker, or relative. In this situation, say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the negative person, but all this cannot reduce your bad feelings and they won’t feel ashamed(羞愧）of themselves about that.Unhappiness often influences happiness without even being realized. The depressing(令人沮丧的）words of another at the start of the day canbe with you throughout the rest of your day, which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness. Life is too short to feel unhappy.28. The purpose of the first paragraph is to .A. make a comparison(比较）B. offer an evidence(证据）C. introduce the topicD. describe a daily scene29. How can negative people have an effect on us?A.By influencing our feelings.B.By telling people the nature of life.C.By changing our way of thinking.D.By comparing their attitude to life with ours.30.Some negative people base their happiness onA. other people’s pity for themB. making other people unhappyC. holding an active attitudeD. other people’s respect for them31.According to the passage，to reduce negative people’s effect on us，we are advised"A.to change negative people’s attitude to lifeB.to show our dislike to negative peopleC.to make negative people feel ashamed of themselvesD.to communicate with negative people as little as possibleDModeled after US hot website Groupon. com, group buying websites are now popular in China. These websites use the power of groupbuying to get competitive discounts (打折）for a daily deal on some best stuff to do, see, eat and buy in the cities across China. Discounts are available within just one click. Zhao lei, a software engineer in Beijing，loves the one- hour lunch break at noon，as it is the best time for him to check “today’s special”at his favorite group buying websites . Sometimes he searches for great deals at directory sites devoted to the new shopping space. Zhao spends around 800 yuan ( $ 117. 65) on group buying every month, mostly to buy food coupons (优惠券）for eating at some nice restaurants and occasionally to find something fun to do. “I love group buying. In addition to the competitive discounts it offers，it helps me get something fun, exciting and new, and such surprises give me a reason to try something new，”he said. When he finds a really good bargain, he will send the link to friends or colleagues through MSN, QQ，or e-mail, or share the information at some social networking websites. In doing so，he often gets a certain cut off the price. At some sites, buyers are invited to leave notes about what they want to buy and the website will consider it if similar applications （申请）reach a certain number. That is how Zuo got her digital camera after waiting for two months. “It is cool.
