The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers tried to conquer(征服) Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, is part of the United Kingdom. The republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.In the 1840s ,the main crop, potatoes, was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died of hunger. This, and a shortage of work, forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result of these problems, the population of Ireland fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.For many years, the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers. Today, many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things move at a quieter and slower pace.The Irish are famous for being warm-hearted and friendly. Oscar Wilde, a famous Irish writer, once said that the Irish were “the greatest talkers since the Greeks”. Since independence, Ireland has revived(复兴) its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments. Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc.1.What does the author tell us in Paragraph 1?A.How the Irish fought against the English.B.How Ireland gained independence.C.How two “Irelands”came into being.D.How English rulers tried to conquer Ireland.2.The last paragraph is mainly about________.A.the Irish characterB.the Irish cultureC.the Irish musical instrumentsD.a famous Irish writer3.We learn from the text that in Ireland ________.A.different kinds of old Irish songs are all sung with instrumentsB.people are moving to the cities for lack of work in the countrysideC.it is harder to make a living as a farmer than as a factory workerD.food shortages in the 1840s led to a decline in population4.What can be the best title for the text?A.Life in IrelandB.Ireland, past and presentC.A very difficult historyD.The independence of IrelandⅣ. 语法填空阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词) 或括号内单词的正确形式。

shipment of twelve thousand “Smart” watches wasreceived by our company this morning.However,we wish to makea number of complaints concerning the serious delay in thedelivery and your failure to carry out our instructions.It was stressed from the beginning that the delivery date hadto be less than six weeks.While we appreciate that delays inproduction are occasionally unavoidable,we must point out that the major reason why the order was placed with your company was that we were assured by you that your existing stocks ensure immediate te delivery of the goods has caused us to disappoint several of our most valued customers,and is sure to have a negative effect on the future orders.The second complaint concerns the difference in colour.Only half of the watches in the delivery received are of the colours we ordered.Our Hong Kong agent assures us that she stressed to you the importance of following our instructions,since we consider there to be only a limited market in this country for watches of other colours.Any watches that are not of the specified colours will,of course,be returned to you.We are also somewhat concerned about the rather poor quality of the goods received,since itis obvious that the watches that finally arrived have been produced from inferior materials and have been made to a lower standard than those in the sample.We have also found that a number of the watches do not appear to be functioning.We should like to point out that we feel this matter to be entirely your responsibility.As a result of the above problems,therefore,we feel that the most suitable course of action is to return to you unpaid any of the goods considered unsatisfactory,and to deduct(扣除) any costs from our final settlement.We shall also be forced to reconsider whether any further orders should be placed with your company.We look forward to your immediate reply.Yours sincerely,John Smith16.How many complaints does John Smith make with the “Smart” watch producer?A.Five.B.Four.C.Three.D.Two.17.The producer of “Smart” watches was given the order because________.A.it produced the best watches of its kind in the worldB.the watches would be easy to make and the designs were already preparedC.it promised to produce enough stocks quite quicklyD.it claimed the order would be easy since the watches were already in stock18.Receiving watches in the wrong colours is a problem because________.A.the Hong Kong agent stressed the need to fulfill the order exactlyB.these watches will be difficult to sellC.these watches will not be able to get into the limited marketD.people will not buy the watches at present19.The underlined sentence in the passage suggests that________.A.the company may stop trading with the watch producerB.the company will probably reduce the orders in the futureC.the writer is afraid that their company might go out of business soonD.the company is probably willing to give the producer another chanceⅢ.书面表达假如你叫李华,是高三学生,昨天你们班开讨论会,主题是高三学生要不要参加体育活动。
人教版高一英语必修四Unit4检测试题及答案(2)第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节 (共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
ASome kids start to drink alcohol (酒精) at a young age. They think it is part of becoming an adult.They also think drinking is not that bad because so many people do it.They feel it is not as bad as taking drugs (毒品). It is easy for kids to get liquor(酒精饮料)by using fake identification (伪造证件).Parents may start to notice a change in their child’s behavior if the child starts drinking. Kids who drink sometimes stop doing things they normally liked to do.They may keep telephone calls and meetings a secret and not want anybody to touch their things.They act moody(喜怒无常) and do not have the same eating and sleeping habits.Parents need to stay involved (牵涉) in their kids’ lives. They should talk to their children about their problems to be aware of any changes.Parents can be the best protection. Children who get a lot of love can feel good about themselves. It helps them resist(抵抗) doing bad things even when other kids are doing them. Parents can also help set a good example by not drinking and driving. They can have firm rules in the home that everyone follows.Give the children good ideas on how to say “no” to drinking, even when they are at a party. Try not to overreact or panic (惊慌) if the child tries alcohol. How you handle it can affect their attitude. It may be helpful to talk to other parents aboutsetting up curfews (宵禁令) and rules about parties or other events.46.Which of the following is NOT the reason why some kids have an early start of drinking?A. They want to show their maturity (成熟) by drinking alcohol.B. Drinking alcohol is much cooler than taking drugs.C. They are affected by many other people around them.D. They can get liquor easily.47.According to the passage, what changes may happen to the kids who start drinking?A. Nothing serious will happen to them.B. They keep the same eating and sleeping habits.C. They can control their moods quite well.D. Sometimes they act secretly.48.According to the writer, if parents find their children try alcohol, they had better ________.A. punish them at onceB. ask the police for helpC. a sk their children’s friends for helpD. set up curfews and rules about parties or other events with other parents49.Which is the main subject discussed in the passage?A.Teen health.B. T een education.C.Teen drinkingD. Parents’ worries.BAre some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes.To some degree our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amountof special education 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 a person's intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment.This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some degree something we are born with.The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence.Thus if we take two unrelated people at random(随机地) from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different.If on the other hand we take two identical (完全相同的) twins they will very likely be as intelligent as 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 conclusion is 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 degrees of intelligence.50.Which of these se ntences best describes the writer’s point in Para.1?A.To some degree, intelligence is given at birth.B.Intelligence is developed by the environment.C.Some people are born clever and others born stupid.D.Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.51.It is suggested in this passage that_______.A.unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligenceB.close relations usually have similar intelligenceC.the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligenceD.people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees of intelligence52.In Para.1, the word "surroundings" means_______.A.intelligenceB.lifeC.environmentsD.housing53.The best title for this article would be_______.A.On IntelligenceB.What Intelligence MeansC.We are Born with IntelligenceD.Environment Plays a Part in Developing IntelligenceCRead the following advertisements and then choose the correct answers.(China Daily, March 3, 1996) the biggest shopping center will open on March 8. Every body with today's China Daily will get a small present that day. You are welcome.Telephone: 38990688; address: No. 6 Xidan Road ……(ENGLISH NEWSPAPER, March 19) English Newspaper needs a foreign editor. He (She ) must have worked in China for more than 2 years. British nationality is necessary. The salary is $ 100,000 a year. The term is 3 years. In ten days this piece of advertisement will not be useful.Telephone: 3890666; addreses: No. 6 Xinling Road …(CHINA FOOTBALL, February 3, 1996)Shanghai Shenhua Team Vs Beijing Guo'an TeamTIME: February 8. Sunday (3:00) PLACE: Hongkou Stadium TICKET PRICE; RMB 25 yuan (for adults ) RMB 15 yuan (for students)NAME: China Cup Football ContestCOACHES: Xu Genbao, Jin Zhiyang …54.If an Englishman who has worked in China for 3 years comes to English Newspaper office to ask for the job in April, he will _____.A. get the jobB. not get the jobC. be a good editorD. not be useful55.If three adults and six students went to watch the match, the tickets would cost them _____ yuan.A. 165B. 135C. 196D. 25556. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. The shopping center is at NO. 6 Xidan road.B. The telephone number of English Newspaper is 3890666.C. The match was between Beijing Team and Guo'an Team.D. Xu Genbao is a coach.DAre you happy? Do you remember a time when you were happy? Are you seeking happiness today?Many have sought a variety of sources for their feelings of happiness.Some have put their hearts and efforts into their work.Too many have turned to drugs and alcohol.Meanwhile, untold numbers have looked for it in the possession of expensive cars, exotic(异国的) vacation homes and other popular “toys”.Most of their efforts have a root i n one common fact: people are looking for a lasting source of happiness.Unfortunately, I believe that happiness escapes from many people because they misunderstand the journey of finding it.I have heard many people say that, “I’ll be happy when I get my n ew promotion.” Or “I’ll be happy when I lose that extra 20 pounds.” It is dangerous because it accepts that happiness is a “response” to having, being or doing something.In life, we all experience stimulus(激励) and response.T oday, some people think that an expensive car is a stimulus, and happiness is a response; a great paying job is a stimulus, and happiness is a response; a loving relationship is a stimulus, and happiness is a response.This belief leaves us the thinking and feeling: I’ll be happy when …It has been my finding that actually the opposite is true.I believe that happiness is a stimulus and a response is what life brings to those who are truly happy.When we are happy, we tend to have more success in our work.When we are happy, people want to be around us and enjoy loving relationships.When we are happy, we more naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health.Happiness is not a response but a stimulus.Happiness is a conscious choice we make every day of our lives.For unknown reason to me, many choose to be painful, unsuccessful and angry most of the time.Happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we want--we usually get things we want AFTER we choose to be happy.57.From the second paragraph, we know too many people ______________.A.are not happy when they work hardB.are not happy when they drink or take drugsC.are happy when they possess their own expensive carsD.all desire exotic vacation homes58.Generally speaking, most people feel happy because ______________.A.they think happiness is rooted in their deep heartsB.they get what they want to haveC.they get a great paying jobD.they get an expensive car59.Which of the following is right according to the author?A.If you want to get what you want, you first choose to be happy.B.We should try to get more and then we’ll be happy.C.Most people today are happy.D.Work is a necessary part in our daily life60.From the viewpoint of the author, happiness is _______________.A.based on our needsB.unconditionalC.out of reachD.limited第二节(共5小题,每题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。

Despite the warning, prison officials moved Strait to the prison’s blacksmith (铁匠) shop.One day during the week before Christmas, Strait disappeared.Searchers found all his doors were well locked.Strait had managed to make a set of keys and let himself out.Not to freedom, though.After crossing into Bavaria, Strait attracted the suspicion (怀疑) of German customs police on purpose and got himself arrested."I want to be in a German prison, "he explained to the surprised police."As German courts give much milder (温和的) sentences for crimes like mine and will reduce the time I would otherwise have served in Stein Prison."In prison, Strait persuaded his keepers to let him make a Christmas Eve telephone call to his former keeper, Karl Schreiner of Stein Prison."I’m sorry if I caused trouble.I didn’t want to embarrass anybody by escaping.Conditions weren’t that bad.In fact the food was better than it is here."48.The underlined word "safecracker" in the first paragraph means "_________".A.prisonerB.criminalC.stealerD.Robber49.What’s the correct order of the following events?a.Strait was caught by German customs police.b.Strait left a note in the bank.c.Strait was sent to Stein Prison.d.Strait worked in a blacksmith shop.e.Strait escaped from prison.A.d-b-a-c-eB.b-a-c-d-eC.b-c-d-e-aD.d-b-c-e-a50.What helped Strait escape from prison?A.His living alone in prison.B.His good relations with the prison officials.C.His cooperation with other prisoners.D.His working in the blacksmith shop.51.Strait was finally caught because _______.A.his car was recognized by someoneB.he left a note in the bank safeC.he was recognized by customs policeD.he made a phone call to his former keeper52.Strait preferred to serve his time in Germany because _______.A.he hated working in the blacksmith shop in the Austrian prisonB.the life of prisoners in Germany was better than those in Austria’sC.he wouldn’t have to stay that long in a German prisonD.he could escape more easily from a German prisonDA Scotsman and an Englishman lived next door to each other.The Scotsman owned a hen and each morning he would look in his garden and pick up his hen’s egg for breakfast.One morning he looked into his garden and saw tha t the hen had laid an egg in the Englishman’s garden.He was about to go next door when he saw the English-man pick up the egg.The Scotsman ran up to the English-man and told him that the egg belonged to him because he owned the hen.The Englishman disagreed because the egg was on his property(财产).They argued for a while until finally the Scotsman said, "In my family we normally settle disputes by the following actions: We kick each other and we compare the time how long it takes us to get back up.Whoever gets up quicker wins the egg."The Englishman agreed to this, so the Scotsman found his heaviest pair of boots and put them on.He took a few steps back, then ran toward the Englishman and kicked as hard as he could in his stomach.The Englishman fell to the floor, holding his stomach and howling in pain for 10 minutes.Eventually the English-man stood up and said, "Now it’s my turn to kick you." At this time, the Scotsman said, "Aye Lad, maybe you should just keep the egg."53.What do we know about the hen?A.It belonged to the two men equally.B.It laid an egg every other day.C.Its eggs were usually cooked by the Scotsman as breakfast.D.It usually laid eggs in the Englishman’s garden.54.The underlined word "disputes" in Paragraph 3 means "_______".A.argumentsB.warsC.plansD.Debts55.What’s the real purpose of the Scotsman’s proposal (提议)?A.He wanted to get his egg back from the Englishman.B.He wanted to solve their dispute.C.He wanted to teach the Englishman a lesson.D.He wanted to find out who was the stronger of them.EDiving around Halaveli Island was a really unforgettable experience.I participated in a day diving trip that had lunch on the boat.We went to Maalhoss Thila first.The current (水流) can be very strong here but we were lucky and had a mild one.We enjoyed all the different colors of coral and fish.The maximum depth of this dive was 30m, and we stayed for about 40 minutes.The water was reasonably warm, so I was not cold only wearing a short-sleeved wetsuit.I was a bit worried about having lunch on the boat, as sometimes my stomach feels bad, but it was perfectly fine this time —perhaps because the boat had not stopped and was moving toward the other dive place, or because the size of the boat was reasonably large.Our next diving place was called Manta.And as expect-ed, the huge Manta was soon around us.It is one of the most exciting moments I have had in my life.We only dove to 14m this time, which allowed us to stay a bit longer —almost 50 minutes.On the way back all the women took strategic position on the deck, sunbathing and relaxing, while the men were getting bored and ate the leftovers from lunch.No matter how different we were, we all enjoyed our trip.Another dive I would like to recommend(推荐)is called Maaya Thila, and it is the best night dive I have ever had.We saw a huge turtle sleeping in a cave, and sharks playfully chasing each other.They did not look friendly at all, but fortunately they did not decided to have us for dinner.But anyway what happened that night under water will remain a fond memory to be retold on special occasions by all the participants.It will be told with a smile on our faces.56.What information can we get from the passage?A.The author enjoyed different colors of fish in Manta.B.Diving in Maaya Thila is one of the most unforgettable experience for the author.C.The author dove into Maaya Thila and stayed there for 50 minutes.D.There were no dangerous sharks in Maaya Thila.57.The author was worried about having lunch on the boat because __________.A.the boat was not stoppedB.it was moving toward the other dive placeC.the boat was not big enoughD.he / she felt sick when eating on boats58.How many diving places are mentioned in the passage?A.1.B.2.C.3.D.4.59.We learn from the last paragraph that ________.A.Maaya Thila was only suitable for a night diveB.many people had been killed at Maaya ThilaC.Maaya Thila is popular among all the participantsD.few people have the courage to dive at Maaya Thila60.The author wrote this passage to ________.A.share some wonderful experiences of diving with readersB.make an attractive advertisement for a famous parkC.give you some tips when you go out for a diveD.tell the readers how to spend a weekend or a long holiday四、补全对话(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)根据对话内容,从对话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。

More than 215 million people now call America “home”, but most of them can trace their families back to other parts of the world.If you look at the names on shop windows, you will see that Americans come from many different lands.The idea that these people, who once were strangers to the United States, have lost the customs and cultures of their original countries and have become “American” is really not true.In fact, what exists in America is mo re often a kind of “side-by-side” living in which groups of people from other countries often have kept many of their customs and habits.They join the general American society only in certain areas of their lives—such as in schools, business, and sports—but they keep many of their own native customs and manners socially and at home.This living “side-by-side” has both advantages and disadvantages.Sometimes it may cause disagreements to develop between groups whose ways of life are very different from one another.however, there are also great advantages that come from the variety of cultures brought by settlers from other lands.There is great freedom of choice among ideas and dress, food, and social customs in America.Everyone can find some part of his or her familiar world in the United States, in churches, music, food, national groups, or newspapers.46.More than 215 million people call America “home” because_______.A.they have their houses thereB.they settle there nowC.they want to make their home thereD.they like that land very much47.“Side-by-side” living style means _______.A.to make friends with native peopleB.to keep their own customs while sharing American ones in certain areasC.the groups of people who live nearbyD.that they get closer to American society48.according to the passage, people in the USA ________.A.share American customs and cultureB.live in a kind of “side-by-side” societyC.keep their own customs and habits firmlyD.make no choice to accept American customs49.Which of the following statements is true?A.They always stick to their own customs and habits.B.“Side-by-side” living style is not suitable.C.They face the society they are not familiar with.D.The advantages coming from the variety of cultures make life in America colorful.50.Which is the best title for this passage?A.Advantages and Disadvantages.B.Different Customs and Habits.C.Home for the People.D.“Side-by-side” Living Style in America.BToyota Motor Corp, Japan’s biggest carmaker, said on Friday it will recall 1,489 Lexus sedans (高级轿车) sold in China."It will take us some time to ship the fuel tanks and vent pipes to China to change those in these Lexus sedans for customers free of charge, if problems are found," said Yang Hongjian, a spokes- woman of Toy ota’s China representative office.The expected recall will affect Lexus LS430 sedans made in Japan from July 29, 2003 to January 14, 2004, the representative office said in a statement.Toyota has not received complaints from Chinese customers,

October.China’s auto market is forecast to reach 10 million units by 2010.Automakers, especiallyChinese producers, will face greater pressure from automobile recalls, which could be very costly sometimes, and should be in full preparations, according to the expert.The Japanese carmaker sold 1, 549 Lexus vehicles on the Chinese mainland during the first five months of this year, according to Yang.Lexus sales on the mainland reached 4,000 units last year, up from 1,600 units in 2002.(China Daily July 3, 2004)51.What can we learn from the text?A.Chinese customers are not satisfied with

第Ⅰ卷(选择题共60分)Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节;满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AMany of the 85 million people in Irene's path—from the Carolinas to Maine—had not experienced hurricanes, or had only been through storms that were weaker, smaller and less damaging. For those unfamiliar with severe hurricanes, Irene was either abstract or not particularly frightening, but something to get excited about more than to fear.Given that the way we perceive(感觉) and respond to risk is affective—not merely objectively analytical, but the sum of the facts and how scary those facts feel—it was likely that many people might be ignorant of the storm's threat.So it was heartening to see how many people did in fact take the warnings to heart and prepared. The long lines at grocery stores, the high demand for batteries and bottled water, and even the patience and understanding about local government orders to evacuate(撤离) or shut down mass transit systems, show that people took the potential danger seriously.There are two possible lessons from this storm. As much as our affective risk perception system can sometimes produce a dangerous “perception gap”between our fears and the facts—when we sometimes fear more than we need to, or less than we should—it's also reasonably good at recognizing risk when it's_staring_us_in_the_face. Though most of us didn't lose power, we know that 7 million people did. Though most of us did not suffer property damage, we know that millions did. Most of us did not lose loved ones, but we know that at least 21 families did. We know hurricanes can be dangerous, even if for many of us this one wasn't.The other lesson is that rare risks do hide and can spring up with little or no warning, and few of us are prepared for those. Remember the East Coast earthquake last week?It might have been annoying to wait in line for hours for those extra batteries or food supplies, but it was careful to do so, and it's a good idea to keep them on hand. Just because a risk might not be staring us in the face or feel all that scary, it doesn't mean that it doesn't make sense to be ready. Just in case.1.From the passage, we can know that Irene________.A.is the way people respond to riskB.is the order to evacuate or shut down mass transit systemsC.is the name of a hurricaneD.is the author of the passage2.The underlined sentence “it's staring us in the face” in the fourth paragraph probably means“________”.A.we are faced with risk that is unavoidableB.we'll have to take a riskC.we are likely to experience riskD.we are at risk of suffering property losses3.According to the passage, one of the lessons learnt from this storm is that ________.A.people fear the storm more than they need toB.a dangerous storm will become less damaging if forecast accuratelyC.people are always prepared for risks that happen without warningD.it's reasonable to be aware of risk facing us4.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that________.A.it's not essential to be ready for the possible riskB.it doesn't make sense to take the potential danger seriouslyC.it's worthwhile to take proper measures to avoid possible riskD.it's wise to keep batteries or food supplies at homeBTwo American scientists told the people in industrial nations that they would be much healthier if they ate more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.The scientists say that the human body has changed very little since human first appeared on earth, but the way we live has changed greatly. Our body has not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this has led to new kinds of sicknesses. These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times. So they are called “diseases of civilization(文明)”. Many cancers and diseases of the blood system, including heart attacks and strokes(中风), are examples of such diseases.Scientists noted that early stoneage people used very little alcohol(酒精) or tobacco, probably none. Ancient people also got a great deal of physical exercise, but a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and life today. Stoneage people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than farm animals. They also ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruit. They did not use milk and other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains. But today, we eat a large amount of dairy products and grain food. We eat six times more salt than stoneage people. We eat more sugar. We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein(蛋白质) and much less vitamin C.People today probably do not want to live as people thousands of years ago did, but scientists say that we would be much healthier if we ate as those ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.5.The people in industrial nations would be much healthier if they ate ________.A.more food as humans living 10,000 years ago didB.as humans living 10,000 years ago didC.more kinds of food eaten by people living over 10,000 years agoD.more of the same kind of food eaten by people over 10,000 years ago6.New kinds of sicknesses have been found because ________.A.the human body has changed compared with humans that first appeared on earthB.the way we live has changed a littleC.our body can't deal with the changes in lifestyleD.the way we live today is proper for the human body7.What is the main reason mentioned in the article why people suffer from a lot of new sicknesses?A.Ancient people did a great deal of physical exercise.B.People today have a lot of alcohol.C.People today have more tobacco.D.Food is quite different between life today and life in ancient times.8.Stoneage people were much healthier than people today because they ate a lot of ________.A.milk and other dairy productsB.grain food and farm animalsC.salt and sugarD.wild animals, fresh wild vegetables and fruitCWelcome to Language upon Thames.

Sometimes it looked like an ordinary object. Sometimes it looked like a donkey or a goat.One evening, as an old woman went along the path, she saw an old iron pot lying in the ditch. “Fancy that,”she said. “Nobody seems to want this old pot. I will take it home and plant pretty flowers in it.”When she tried to lift it, she saw that it was full of gold pieces. “Well, now, if that doesn't beat all,”she said. “I'm rich! I can buy a fine house and fancy clothes.”The pot was heavy, so she tied her shawl around it and began to drag it home. After a while, she stopped to rest. When she looked in the pot, she was amazed to see that it was full of silver pieces!“Oh, my God!”she said. “Aren't I the lucky one! If it were gold, thieves would have been after me. My friends might have been jealous. But I can hide these silver pieces, take out a few at a time, and live like a queen.”On she went, pulling the pot after her. She was nearing home now. At her gate, she looked into the pot. What a surprise! The silver had changed into a lump(块) of iron. “Iron,” she said. “Well, now! No one will be jealous or want to steal this from me. I can use this iron to prop my door open and let fresh air and sunlight in. Lucky me!”As soon as she said that, the pot began to grow and later it became a goat. Then it jumped up and ran off down the road laughing.“Fancy that!” said the old woman. “I believe I have seen the Hedley Kow! Not many folks can say that, and that's a fact. I'll just sit up by my fire tonight thinking about how lucky I was to see it for myself. I truly must be the luckiest person in the world!”13.Which of the following sayings can best describe this story?A.All good things come to an end.B.The early bird catches the worm.C.Content is better than riches.D.All bad luck goes away.14.What does “the Hedley Kow” stand for in the eyes of the old woman?A.Glory.

第Ⅰ卷(选择题共60分)Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节;满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AMany of the 85 million people in Irene's path—from the Carolinas to Maine—had not experienced hurricanes, or had only been through storms that were weaker, smaller and less damaging. For those unfamiliar with severe hurricanes, Irene was either abstract or not particularly frightening, but something to get excited about more than to fear.Given that the way we perceive(感觉) and respond to risk is affective—not merely objectively analytical, but the sum of the facts and how scary those facts feel—it was likely that many people might be ignorant of the storm's threat.So it was heartening to see how many people did in fact take the warnings to heart and prepared. The long lines at grocery stores, the high demand for batteries and bottled water, and even the patience and understanding about local government orders to evacuate(撤离) or shut down mass transit systems, show that people took the potential danger seriously.There are two possible lessons from this storm. As much as our affective risk perception system can sometimes produce a dangerous “perception gap”between our fears and the facts—when we sometimes fear more than we need to, or less than we should—it's also reasonably good at recognizing risk when it's_staring_us_in_the_face. Though most of us didn't lose power, we know that 7 million people did. Though most of us did not suffer property damage, we know that millions did. Most of us did not lose loved ones, but we know that at least 21 families did. We know hurricanes can be dangerous, even if for many of us this one wasn't.The other lesson is that rare risks do hide and can spring up with little or no warning, and few of us are prepared for those. Remember the East Coast earthquake last week?It might have been annoying to wait in line for hours for those extra batteries or food supplies, but it was careful to do so, and it's a good idea to keep them on hand. Just because a risk might not be staring us in the face or feel all that scary, it doesn't mean that it doesn't make sense to be ready.
