山西大学附中2015-2016学年高二第二学期3月(总第七次)模块诊断英语试题(考查时间:100分钟)(考查内容:综合)第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题,每题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AA study found that young people have a stronger and more unpleasant scent (气味) than the elderly,while elderly people’s smell was the most distinctive,less intense and unpleasant. Researchers said the change in our smell is driven by the chemicals we release through our glands (腺) and the bacteria on our skin.To test whether or not it really exists,scientists collected a series of samples from three groups of 12 to 16 donors,aged 20 to 30,45 to 55 and 75 to 95.Volunteers wore special T-shirts fitted with underarm pads (护垫) as they slept for five nights,after which the pads were cut up and put in glass jars. A separate group of 41 people aged 20 to 30 was then asked to smell two jars at a time and asked which group of the donors was old er,as well as rating how strong and unpleasant each smell was.When asked to specify whether a particular sample was from a young,middle aged or old person,they were much more successful at identifying older people. Despite being the most distinctive,the older people’s smell was also rated as being obviously less intense and less unpleasant than those from the other groups.Researchers said their findings appeared to contradict people's negative ideas about the old person’s smell but admitted other factors,like smelly breath or skin,could be to blame for its bad reputation.“Similar to other animals,humans can give off body scents that allow us to identify biological age,avoid sick individuals and pick a suitable partner. Elderly people have a distinctive scent that younger people consider to be not very unpleasant. This was surprising given the popular conception of old age scent as smelly. However,it's possible that other sources of body scents,such as skin or breath,may have different qualities,” said Dr Johan Lundstrom,who led the study.1.What do we know from the study?A.People of different ages give off different scents.B.People's scent can only be changed by the bacteria on their skin.C.People show great interest in old people's scent.D.People's scent can help distinguish a man and a woman.2.Which of the following ages of people have the chance to participate in the study?A.16 B. 77 C.74 D.563.According to the passage, people usually think that________.A.old people's scent is simply from their breathB.old people have a bad reputation mainly for their skinC.old people's scent is terrible and unpleasantD.old people give off a more pleasant scent4.What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A.To tell old people how to remove their terrible scent.B.To prove that people often hold wrong ideas.C.To show how researchers carried out their study about the scent.D.To report the findings of a study about people's scent.BChina Daily Oct.11,2008-TheMinistry Of Health has called for more awareness from the public on the mental health of the young as part of efforts to mark World Mental Health Day which fell on Friday.More than 15 percent of Chinese youths have been found with mental problems and about 30 million young people under 17 are suffering from depression,the Shanghai-based Wenhui Daily reported.The World Health Organization estimates that before 2020,the rate of children with mental problems will increase to 50 percent ,and mental problem will become a major factor behind deaths and illness in the young worldwide.Dang Xianhong,the spokesperson for the Beijing Municipal Health Bureau,said rapid social change is one of the reasons behind the rising number of youngsters with psychological problems.If these mental dispenses are not addressed on time, science of crimes,drug-taking and other dangerous behaviors are expected to rise.Experts said mental diseases could be caused by many factors,such as the inability to handle interpersonal relations well, unstable emotions and pressures from an overload of studies.A number of experts have also said the one child policy is another reason leading to poor mental health in the young.Children are said to be too “spoiled” and “selfish” in a one child family.It’s reported that schools in many cities are rolling out measures to help students maintain their mental well-being.Yin Jingmiao, a teacher of the Beijing No,105 Middle School,told China Daily that the school invites psychologists to provide counseling to students three times a month.“Students can be arranged to have 40-minute counseling sessions.” Yin said.“The school also gives lectures on mental health to senior grade students before they take the national college entrance exams to help ease any anxiety arising from the tests.”5.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.Efforts to Mark World Mental Health DayB.Public Awareness on Youngs ters’ Mental Diseases ExpectedC.How to Maintain Mental Well-beingD.Seriousness of Youngsters Mental Health Problems6.The writer intends to tell us in the second paragraph that _____.A. mental problems will become as serious as deaths and illnessB. only young people are suffering from mental health problemsC. mental health problems of the young are becoming a popular problemD. the rate of children with mental problems will increase to 50 percent7.Which could be the consequence if the problem is left untreated?A.Inability to handle interpersonal relations.B.Unstable emotions.C.Drug taking and other dangerous behaviors.D.Rapid social changes8.Why is Beijing No. 105 Middle School mentioned in the passage?A.To provide the students with counseling sessions.B.To give an example showing how mental problems are dealt with.C.To help ease the anxiety arising from college entrance exams.D.To call on other schools to learn from No.105 Middle Schoo1.CNet Library is a library that lends out digital books. It treats a digital book like a paperback copy. It charges libraries per book per copy and gives publishers a cut of the total income.From the consumer’s point of view, this means that if more than five people want the latest Danielle Steel romance novel, other people who request that book will get a message saying the title is unable to get.Many publishers seem to have embraced its model. More than 350 publishers gave the company rights to hand out their digital works, and McGraw-Hill Corporation and Houghton Mifflin Corporation have put money into the company. The California public libraries and about 1,800 others across the US are trying out the Net Library service.Some librarians criticize the Net Library model. Stanford University librarian Michael Keller argues that the company is creating an unnatural fear of digital works, which is contrary to the ideas of the Internet.Keller and some other librarians argue for the e-book vision set forth by Brary. Brary is starting a service that lets us users read books for free.But it will charge about 25 cents a page when a person tries to point out material or copy and taste it into a different file or tries to download a copy onto a computer.Christopher Warnock, chief executive of Brar y, believes most consumers won’t want to buy entire books, only the parts that interest them.“There is not really a lot of good owning an electronic file and having to store it and manage it. It doesn’t make sense,” he said.9.How do publishers get money from the Net Library?A.They get money from selling their books to the Net LibraryB.They get money from the readers.C.They get money by cutting the cost of the books.D.They share the money with Net Library.10.The underline d word “embraced” in the third paragraph meansA. tried out something hardB. held something tightlyC. disliked something badlyD. taken something willingly11.What does the last paragraph mean?A. Net Library is not a good way for the consumers.B. There is no need for consumers to have a whole book.C. Brary is not a good library for the consumers.D. It’s reasonable to charge the consumers money for copying some pages.DFormer Hollywood child star Shirley Temple died on Monday at home in Woodside, California, from natural causes.

The WTO, with its head office in Geneva, has 135 members with 30 more waiting to join.36. From the passage we know that the GA TT stopped working ________.A. soon after World War II endedB. a little more than 50 years after World War IIC. just in the year 1994D. seven years before the Uruguay Round talk37. Compared with the GATT, the WTO _______.A. didn’t pay enough attention to services and intellectual propertyB. got its members to sign the agreements more easilyC. has got to many areas of international trade to deal with to work effectivelyD. can do better to settle disputes in more areas of international trade38. In the new century the WTO will ________.A. take the place of the World Bank and International Monetary FundB. have more members and settle more problemsC. make complete new rules in every area of international tradeD. have new rules covering trade in services and intellectual propertyBIt was the first snow of winter- an exciting day for every child but not for most teacher. UP until now, I had been able to dress myself for recess (课间休息), but today I would need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher at Princess Elizabeth School near Hamilton, Ontario, had been through first snow days many times in her long career, but I think she may still remember this one.I managed go get into my wool snow pants. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and matching scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots. In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of winter, you will be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence.I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected the adult to do all the work. After much wiggling and pushing, she managed to get first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.I announced, “They’re on the wrong feet.” With the grace that only experience can bring, she struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task o f putting them on again. Then I said, “These aren’t my boots, you know.” As she pulled the offending boots from my feet, she still managed to look both helpful and interested. Once they were off, I said, “They are my brother’s boots. My mother makes me wear them, and I hate them!” Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying little girl. She pushed and shoved, less gently this time, and the boots were returned to their proper place on my feet. With a great sigh if relief, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your gloves?”I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn’t want to lose them, so I put them into the toes of my boots.”39. According to the passage, the little girl got ______ from her brother.A. the wool snow pants and the jacketB. the jacket and the bootsC. the jacket and the hatD. the boots and the gloves40. What made it so hard for the teacher to help the little girl put her boots on?A. The gloves in the toes of the boots.B. The slowness of the teacher.C. The wrong size of the bootsD. The unwillingness of the girl41. It can be inferred that before the little girl finally went out to enjoy the first snow of winter, the teacher had tohelp her put on her boots______ .A. onceB. twiceC. three timesD. four times42. Which of the following sentences from the text BEST indicates that the teacher is very considerate?A. In her calm, motherly voice she, “By the end of winter,…”(Paragraph 2)B. With the grace that only experience can bring, she struggled to…(Paragraph 4)C. …she still managed to look both helpful and interested. (Paragraph 4)D. …she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying little girl. (Paragraph 4)CWhen I was seven my father gave me a Timex, my first watch. I loved it, wore it for years, and haven’t had another one since it stopped ticking a decade ago. Why? Because I don’t need one. I have a mobile phone and I’m always near someone with an iPod or something like that. All these devices (装置) tell the time ―which is why, if you look around, you’ll see lots off empty wrists; sales of watches to young adults have been going down since . But while the wise have realized that they don’t need them, others ―apparently including some distinguished men of our time ―are spending total fortunes on them. Brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe and Breitling command shocking prices, up to £250,000 for a piece.This is ridiculous. Expensive cars go faster than cheap cars. Expensive clothes hang better than cheap clothes. But these days all watches tell the time as well as all other watches. Expensive watches come with extra functions ―but who needs them? How often do you dive to 300 metres into the sea or need to find your direction in the area around the South Pole? So why pay that much of five years’ school fees for watches that allow you to do these things?If justice were done, the Swiss watch industry should have closed down when the Japanese discovered how to make accurate watches for a five –pound note. Instead the Swiss reinvented the watch, with the aid of millions of pounds’ worth of advertising, as a message about the man wearing it. Rolexes are for those who spend their weekends climbing icy mountains; a Patek Philippe is for one from a rich or noble family; a Breitling suggests you like to pilot planes across the world.Watches are now classified as “investments” (投资). A1994 Patek Philipe recently sold for nearly £350,000 while 1960s Rolexes have gone from£15,000 to £30,000 plus in a year. But a watch is not an investment. It’s a toy for self-satisfaction, a matter of fashion. Prices may keep going up ―they’ve been rising for 15 years. But when fashion moves on, the owner of that £350,000 beauty will suddenly find his pride and joy is no more a good investment than my childhood Timex.43.The sales of watches to young people have fallen because they ______A. have other devices to tell the timeB. think watches too expensiveC. prefer to wear an iPodD. have no sense of time44. It seems ridiculous to the writer that ______.A. people dive 300 metres into the seaB. expensive clothes sell better than cheap onesC. cheap cars don’t run as fast as expensive onesD. expensive watches with unnecessary functions still sell45. What can be learnt about Swiss watch industry from the passage?A. It targets rich people as its potential customers.B. It’s hard for the industry to beat its competitors.C. It wastes a huge amount of money in advertising.D. It’s easy for the industry to reinvent cheap watches.46. which would be the best title for the passage?A. Timex or Rolex?B. My Childhood TimexC. Watches? Not for Me!D. Watches ―a Valuable Col lectionD阅读下面短文,用英语回答文后所给的5个问题。

2014/03/20第二部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1.5分,满分22.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中(A、B、C、D),选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.AA few years ago, Paul Gerner began to gather a group of architects in Las Vegas to ask them what it would take to design a public school that used 50 percent less energy, cost much less to build and obviously improved student learning. “I think half of them fell off their chairs,” Gerner says.Gerner manages school facilities (设施)for Clark County, Nevada, a district roughly the size of Massachusetts. By 2018, 143,000 additional students will enter the already crowded public-education system. Gerner needs 73 new schools to house them. Four architecture teams have nearly finished designing primary school prototypes(样品); they plan to construct their schools starting in 2009. The district will then assess how well the schools perform, and three winners will copy those designs in 50 to 70 new buildings.Green schools are appearing all over, but in Clark County, which stands out for its vastness, such aggressive targets are difficult because design requirements like more natural light for students go against the realities of a desert climate. “One of the biggest challenges is getting the right site orientation(朝向),” Mark. McGinty, a director at SH Architecture, says. His firm recently completed a high school in Las Vegas. “You have the same building, same set of windows, but if its orientation is incorrect and it faces the sun, it will be really expensive to cool.”Surprisingly, the man responsible for one of re most progressive green-design competitions has doubts about ideas of eco-friendly buildings. “I don’t believe in the new green religion,” Gerner says. “Some of the building technologies that you get are impractical. I’m interested in those that work.” But he wouldn’t mind if some green features inspire students. He says he hopes to set up green energy systems that allow them to learn about the process of harvesting wind and solar power. “You never know what’s going to start the interest of a child to study math and science,”he says.【小题1】How did the architects react to Gerner’s design requirements?A. They lost balance in excitement.B. they showed strong disbelief.C. they expressed little interest.D. they burst into cheers.【小题2】Which order of steps is followed in carrying out the project?A. Assessment-Prototype-Design-Construction.B. Assessment-Design-Prototype-Construction.C. Design-Assessment-Prototype-Construction.D. Design-Prototype-Assessment-Construction.【小题3】What makes it difficult to build green schools in Clark County?A. The large size.B. Limited facilities.C. The desert climate.D.

AThe most frightening wor ds in the English language are, “Our computer is down.〞 You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.〞“If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.〞“I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.〞I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee an d staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do all you people do?〞“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.〞“So when it goes down, you go down with it.〞“That’s good, sir.〞“How long will the computer be down?〞 I wanted to know.“I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There’s no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down it won’t answer us.〞After the girl told me they had no backup(备用) computer, I said. “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They’re still flying, aren’t they?〞“I couldn’t tell without asking the computer.〞“Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he’s flying to Washington, 〞 I suggested.“I wouldn’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn’t take you if you didn’t have a ticket.〞“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?〞“I wouldn’t k now, 〞she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only ‘IT’ knows. ‘It’ can’t tell me.〞By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.1.

C.Three.D.Four.CA federal agency on Tuesday called for a ban on all cellphone use by drivers --- the most far-reaching recommendation up to now — saying its decision was based on a decade of investigations into distraction-related (与分散注意力有关的) accidents, as well as growing concerns that powerful mobile devices are giving drivers even more reasons to look away from the road.As part of its recommendation, the National Transportation Safety Board is urging states to ban drivers from using hands-free devices, including wireless headsets. No state now has made laws to ban such activity, but the Board said that drivers faced serious risks from talking on wireless headsets, just as they do by taking a hand off the wheel to hold a phone to their ears.However, the concern was heightened by increasingly powerful phones thatpeople can use to send e-mails, watch movies and play games.“Every year, new devices are being on sale.〞she said. “People are attracted to update their Facebook page, to play music with cellphone, as if sitting at a desk. But they are driving acar.〞The agency based its recommendation on evidence from its investigation of numerous crashes in which electronic distraction was a major contributing factor. Ms. Hersman said she understood that this recommendation would be unwelcome in some circles, given the number of drivers who talk and text. But she compared distracted driving to drunken driving and even smoking, which required wholesale cultural shifts to change behavior.“It’s going to be very unpopular with some people.〞she said. “We’re not here to win a popularity contest. We’re here to do the right thing. This is a difficult recommendation, but it’s the right recommendation and it is time.〞The agency’s recommendation is not required for states to adopt such a ban. And it won’t likely be agreed upon by state lawmakers who are unwill ingly to anger those who have grown accustomed to using their device behind the wheel. The ban also deserves attention because it is the first call by a federal agency to end the practice completely, rather than the partial ban that some lawmakers have put in place by allowing hands-free talking.8. The ban on all cellphone use by drivers was put forward ______.A. after a long discussion and recommendationB. after about ten years’ investigation in itC. because of the most powerful mobile devicesD. for the reason of heading away from the road9. We can know from the passage that ______.A. electronic distraction resulted in numerous crashesB. numerous crashes were caused by drunk drivingC. electronic distraction contributed much to the banD. the recommendation was based on electronic distraction10. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Cellphone Ban in CarsB. Valuable Ban for CellphonesC. Drivers Ban CellphonesD. Cellphone Ban while Driving第二节〔共5小题,每一小题2分,总分为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优选项。

AMy parents were in a fierce quarrel, which I felt really upset about. I didn’t know who I should talk wi th about my feelings. So I decided to stay the night at my best friend’s house. Though I knew I wouldn't tell her about my parents’ problem, I was looking forward to getting out of the house. I was in the middle of packing up my things when the power went out in the neighborhood. Mom came to tell me that I should stay with my grandpa until the power came back on.I was really disappointed because I felt that we did not have much to talk about. But I knew he would be frightened alone in the dark. I went to his room and told him that I'd stay with him until the power was restored. He was quite happy and said, “Great opportunity.”“What is?” I asked.“To talk, you and I” he said. “To hold a private little meeting about what we’re going to do with your mom and dad, and what we're going to do with ourselves now that we're in the situation we are in.”“But we can’t do anything about it. Grandpa,” I said, surprised that here was someone with whom I could share my feelings and someone who was in the same “boat” as I was.And that’s how the most unbelievable friendship between my grandfather and me started. Sitting Acre in the dark, we talked about our feelings and fears of life — from how fast things change, to how they sometimes don’t change fast enough. That night, because the power went out, I found a new friend, with whom I could safely talk about all my fears and pains, whatever they may be. Suddenly, the lights all came back on. “Well,” he said, “I guess that means you’ll want to go now. I really like our talk. I hope the power will go out every few nights!”I wished to get out of the house because ____.I was angry about my parents' quarrelI wanted to escape from the dark houseI planned to tell my friend about my troubleI found no one else to share my feelings withGrandpa was happy to see me because _____.he was afraid of darkness B. he had not seen me for a long limehe could discuss the problem with me D. he felt quite lonelyWhat can be inferred from the passage?A. They would have more chats.B. The lights would go out again.C. The grandchild was eager to leave.D. It would no longer be dark.BWhat will power your house in the future? Nuclear, wind, or solar power? According to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US, it might be leaves — but artificial (人造的) ones.Natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy. It is known as photosynthesis (光合作用). Now researchers have found a way to imitate this seemingly simple process.The artificial leaf developed by Daniel Nocera and his colleagues at MIT can be seen as a special silicon chip with catalysts (催化剂). Similar to natural leaves, it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water. The hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell, which uses those two materials to produce electricity, located either on top of a house or beside the house.Though the leaf is only about the shape of a poker card, scientists claimed that it is promising to be an inexpensive source of electricity in developing countries. “One can imagine villages in India and Africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology,” said Nocera at a conference of the American Chemical Society.The artificial leaf is not a new idea. The first artificial leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and unstable for practical use. The new leaf, by contrast, is made of cheap materials, easy to use and highly stable. In laboratory studies, Nocera showed that an artificial leaf prototype (原型) could operate continuously for at least 45 hours without a drop in activity.The wonderful improvements come from Nocera’s recent discovery of several powerful, new and inexpensive catalysts. These catalysts make the energy transformation inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight. Right now, the new leaf is about 10 times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one. Besides, the device can run in whatever water is available; that is, it doesn't need pure water. This is important for some countries that don't have access to pure water.With the goal to “make each home its own power station” and “give energy to the poor”, scientists believe that the new technology could be widely used in developing countries, especially in India and rural China.Which of the following orders correctly shows how the artificial leaf is used to produce electricity?a. artificial leaves split water into hydrogen and oxygenb. the hydrogen and oxygen gases are stored in a fuel cellc. the artificial leaves are put in waterd. the fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricityA . c, a, d, b B. c, a, b, d C. b, c, a, d D. c, b, a, dThe purpose of the scientists at MIT in developing the new artificial leaf is to________.A. offer people in developing countries access to pure waterB. provide cheaper energy for developing countriesC. gain a deeper understanding of the photosynthesis processD. build up more power stations in the worldThe main idea of this passage is about ________.A. saving energyB. a mixture of water power and solar energyC. an invention copying photosynthesisD. an introduction to the history of artificial leavesCJANUARY 15, 2014 KYOTO — A father froze to death while sheltering his eight years old daughter from severe weekend snowstorms that swept northern Japan. Fujita Makoto, one of at least nine people killed as snowstorms swept across Hokkaido (北海道), died as he tried to protect his only child Yumi against winds of up to 113 kilometers per hour in Hokkaido, as temperatures fell sharplyto minus 6 degrees centigrade.Makoto's body was uncovered by rescuers looking for the pair after relatives raised the alarm. Yumi was wearing her father's jacket and was wrapped in his arms. The pair had last been heard from at 4 p. m. on Saturday, after fisherman Makoto picked his daughter up from a school where she was being looked after while he was at work. Makoto called his relatives to say his truck had become stuck in the driving snow, which was several meters deep in places. He told them he and Yumi would walk the remaining kilometers. The two were found just 300 meters from the truck at 7 a.m. on Sunday.Makoto had his body bent over his daughter, gently holding her in his arms and apparently using his body and a warehouse wall to provide shelter. The small girl was taken to hospital, where she was found to have no serious injuries. Her father was officially pronounced dead by doctors at the same hospital.The newspaper Yomiuri said Yumi’s mother had died of illness two years earlier. The paper quoted neighbors as saying Makoto had been an extremely caring father who would often delay the start of his working day to enjoy breakfast with his daughter.His death came as families all over Japan celebrated Girls' Day, a festival in which they gather at home and decorate houses with dolls. “He reserved a cake for his only daughter and was looking forward to celebrat ing Dolls' Festival together,” a neighbor told the Yomiuri.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?Snowstorm takes away 9-year-old girl’s fatherFather dies sheltering daughter from snowstorm8-year-old girl made orphan in snowstormJapanese dad dies in snowstormWhen the disaster happened, the father and daughter were ________.returning home after visiting relativesjust 300 meters away from homedriving home after a visit to a hospitalon their way home from the girl’s scho olWhich of the following doesn’t show the father's love for his daughter?Yumi was wearing her father’s jacket.Makoto had his body bent over his daughter.Makoto had been looking forward to Dolls’ Festival.Makoto called his relatives to say his truck had become stuck.What can we infer from the passage?Makoto had just celebrated Girls’ Day with his daughter before he died.The relatives were not careful enough and raised the alarm too late.No one cared for Yumi at home while her dad was at work.The r escuers’ delay resulted in the avoidable death.DIf your dog or cat is eating grass, it means it’s going to rain.False(错误的)一maybe. There' s no evidence (证据) that when a dog or cat is eating grass in the front yard, it' s going to rain. But then, there’s no evidence that it isn’t going to rain, either. Doctors think dogs and cats eat grass to help make their stomach better or maybe just because they like the taste of it.You’ll get sick if you go outside in cold weather with wet hair.False. You might feel cold, but you can’t catch a cold because you were outside with wet hair. Many churches have prevented people from throwing rice at weddings because the rice grows larger in a bird’s stomach when eaten, causing the bird to explode(爆炸).True and false. It’s true many churches have prevented people from throwing rice, but this is more likely because the rice can become slick(光滑)on a road or street. There’s nothing about rice that will hurt birds. Rice is an important part of many bir d’s food.Chocolate is Poisonous to dogs.True. Chocolate has theobromine, which can make your dog sick. So, if you don’t want to put your dog’s life at risk, don’t feed it with chocolate.The number of people visiting the hospital goes way up during a full moon.False. According to researchers, there is no evidence that more people visit the hospital during a full moon, though more people do seem to get caught by the police during that time. The idea that the moon influences behavior has been studied for thousands of years—even the word “lunacy”, which means crazy behavior, is based on the word “luna” or “moon”.In doctor’s opinion, a grass-eating dog or cat _____.shows animals also have stomach problems.is a sign of rainbehaves like that for personal reasonsshows animals enjoy tasty foodWhy are people prevented from throwing rice at weddings?A. It’s valuable and importantB. It may cause people to fall over.C. It’s hard to clean it off the road.D. It’s a danger to birds.The underlined word “poisonous” in the text can best be replaced by “_____”.A. usefulB. deliciousC. similarD. dangerousAs the moon grows to be full, it may _____.influence human behavior B. cause people to get sick easilyC. help people with their studiesD. make people say bad things about othersWhat’s the main purpose of the text?To give advice on healthTo provide information about certain storiesTo test people on their knowledge of animalsTo report the latest discoveries in science第二节(共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5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。

By 2018, 143,000 additional students will enter the already crowded public-education system. Gerner needs 73 new schools to house them. Four architecture teams have nearly finished designing primary school prototypes(样品); they plan to construct their schools starting in 2009. The district will then assess how well the schools perform, and three winners will copy those designs in 50 to 70 new buildings.Green schools are appearing all over , but in Clark County, which stands out for its vastness, such aggressive targets are difficult because design requirements like more natural light for students go against the realities of a desert climate. “One of the biggest challenges is getting the right site orientation(朝向),” Mark. McGinty, a director at SH Architecture, says. His firm recently completed a high school in Las Vegas. “You have the same building, same set of windows, but if its orientation is incorrect and it faces the sun, it will be really expensive to coo l.”Surprisingly, the man responsible for one of re most progressive green-design competitions has doubts about ideas of eco-friendly buildings. “I don’t believe in the new green religion,” Gerner says. “Some of the building technologies that you get are impractical. I’m interested in those that work.” But he wouldn’t mind if some green features inspire students. He says he hopes to set up green energy systems that allow them to learn about the process of harvesting wind and solar power. “You never know what’s going to start the interest of a child to study math and science,” he says.21.

Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (实业家) in the UK found that 70 percent felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public.Britain is hostile to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy (嫉妒) . As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood”. Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green-eyed monster” and the UK is its home. Scientists at Warwic h University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money. Some were given a little, others a great deal. Those given a little money were given the chance to destroy the large amounts of money given to others—but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.This seems to prove the entrepreneurs were right to complain. But there is also conflicting evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) recently reported that the UK was now the world’s fourth largest economy .That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.“It’s not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a Professor of manage ment at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It’s people using their success in a way that seems arrogant (傲慢) or unfair or which separates them from their roots .”Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem. They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them. It hardly seems worth following their example. If they were friendlier, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.25.

I first met Timothy, a quiet, overweight eleven-year-old boy, when his mother brought him to me to discuss his declining grades. A few minutes with Timothy were enough to confirm that his self-esteem (自尊) and general happiness were falling right along with them.I asked about Timothy’s typical day. He awoke eve ry morning at six thirty so he could reach his school by eight and arrived home around four thirty each afternoon. He then had a quick snack, followed by either a piano lesson or a lesson with his math tutor. He finished dinner at 7 pm, and then he sat down to do homework for two to three hours. Quickly doing the math in my head, I found that Timothy spent an average of thirteen hours a day at a writing desk.What if Timothy spent thirteen hours a day at a sewing machine instead of a desk? We would immediately be shocked, because that would be called children being horribly mistreated. Timothy was far from being mistreated, but the mountain of homework he faced daily resulted in a similar consequence — he was being robbed of his childhood. In fact, Timothy had no time to do anything he truly enjoyed, such as playing video games, watching movies, or playing board games with his friends.Play, however, is a crucial part of healthy child development. It affects children’s creativity, their social skills, and even their brain development. The absence of play, physical exercise, and free-from social interaction takes a serious toll on many children. It can also cause significant health problems like childhood obesity, sleep problems and depression.Experts in the field recommend the minutes children spend on their homework should be no more than ten times the number of their grade level. As a fifth-grader, Timothy should have no more than fifty minutes a day of homework (instead of three times that amount). Having an extra two hours an evening to play, relax, or see a friend would soundly benefit any child’s life quality.33. What did the writer think of Timothy after learning about his typical day?A. Timothy was very hard-working.B. Timothy was being mistreated.C. Timothy had a heavy burden.D. Timothy was enjoying his childhood.34. Which of the following statements best describes the writer’s opinion?A. Children should be allowed enough time to play.B. Playing board games works better than playing video games.C. The more they play, the more creative children will become.D. The depression caused by homework makes children unwilling to play.35. According to the passage, how long should a third-grader spend a day doing homework?A. About ten minutes.B. No more than twenty minutes.C. No more than thirty minutes.D. About fifty minutes.第二节(共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5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。
