模块综合测评(二)(时间:100分钟;满分:120分)Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AMichael Fish may soon be replaced as a weather forecaster by something truly fishier—the shark (鲨鱼).Research by a British biology student suggests that sharks could be used to predict storms.Lauren Smith,24,is close to completing her study on shark's ability to sense pressure.If her studies prove the theory,scientists may be able to monitor the behaviour of sharks to predict bad weather.Miss Smith had previously studied the behaviour of lemon sharks in the Bahamas.She then used their close relatives, lesser spotted dogfish,for further research at Aberdeen University.Her work—thought to be the first of its kind to test the pressure theory—resulted from the observation that juvenile (幼年的) blacktip sharks off Florida moved into deeper water ahead of a violent storm in 2001.Miss Smith said:“I've always been crazy about travelling and diving and this led me to an interest in sharks.”“I was delighted to have been able to research in the area for my degree.I know there's so much more we need to understand—but it certainly opens the way to more research.”It has been discovered that a shark senses pressure using hair cells in its balance system.At the Bimini Shark Lab in the Bahamas,Miss Smith fixed hi-tech sensors to sharks to record pressure and temperature,while also tracking them using GPS (Global Positioning System) technology.In Aberdeen,she was able to study the effects of tidal(潮汐的)and temperature changes on dogfish—none of which were harmed.She also used a special lab whichcan mimic(模拟)oceanic pressure changes caused by weather fronts.She is due to complete her study and graduate later this year.She says she will be looking for a job which will give her the chance to enrich her experience of shark research.1.The passage is most probably taken from ________.A.a short-story collectionB.a popular science magazineC.a research paperD.a personal diary2.What do we learn from the first four paragraphs of the passage?A.Sharks may be used to predict bad weather.B.Sharks' behaviour can be controlled.C.Michael Fish is not qualified for his job.D.Lauren Smith will become a weather forecaster .3.Lauren Smith conducted her research by ________.A.removing hair cells from a shark's balance systemB.measuring the air pressure of weather frontsC.recording sharks' body temperatureD.monitoring sharks' reaction to weatherchanges4.What is the passage mainly about?A.A popular way of forecasting weather.B.A new research effort in predicting storms.C.Biologists' interest in the secrets of sharks.D.Lauren Smith's devotion to scientific research.B【导学号:28820044】The people who built Stonehenge in southern England thousands of years ago had wild parties, eating barbecued pigs and breaking pottery.This is according to recent work by archaeologists—history experts who investigate how human beings lived in the past.Archaeologists digging near Stonehenge last year discovered the remains of a large prehistoric village where they think the builders of the mysterious stone circle used to live.The village is about 4,600 years old,the same age as Stonehenge and as old as the pyramids in Egypt.It is less than two miles from the famous ancient landmark and lies inside a massive manmade circular dirt wall,or“henge”,known as the Durrington Walls.Remains found at the site included jewellery,stone arrowheads,tools made of deer antlers,wooden spears and huge amounts of animal bones and broken pottery.“These finds suggest Stone Age people went to the village at spec ial times of the year to feast and party”,says Mike Parker Pearson from Sheffield University in England.He said many of the pig bones they found had been thrown away half-eaten. He also said the partygoers appeared to have shot some of the farm pigs with arrows,possibly as a kind of sport before barbecuing them.An ancient road which led from the village to the River Avon was also found. Here,the experts think,people came after their parties to throw dead relatives into the water so the bodies would be washed downstream to Stonehenge.Parker Pearson believes Stonehenge was like a cemetery where ancient Britons buried the dead and remembered their ancestors.“The theory is that Stonehenge is a kind of spirit home to the ancestors.”The recent discovery of the village within the Durrington Walls shows that Stonehenge didn't stand alone but was part of a much bigger religious site,according to Parker Pearson.People still come to worship and celebrate at Stonehenge today.They meet there when the sun sets on the shortest day of winter and when it rises on the longest day of summer.But the days of barbecuing whole pigs there and throwing family members into the river are a thing of the past.5.The underlined word“It”(Paragraph 2) refers to ________.A.the village B.StonehengeC.the pyramid D.the dirt wall6.From the text we can infer that the people who came to the village ________.A.liked to drink wineB.knew how to huntC.were from EgyptD.lived by the River Avon7.What do experts think people did after the village parties?A.Returned to live at Stonehenge.B.Prayed for good luck in the new year.C.Hunted farm pigs as a sport.D.Put their dead relatives into the river.8.When do people most often go to Stonehenge today?A.When a new discovery is made.B.At the beginning of summer and winter.C.On the longest and shortest days of the year.D.When they want to have a barbecue.C(2016·杭州第二中学高一期中) Do you ever wonder why the English have one word for some animals and a different one for their meat? Why do they use pig and pork, cow and beef, and sheep and mutton?To find out, we have to go back to 1066, when the Norman French invaded England and put a French king on the English throne (王位), which not only changed the government but also changed the language.French became the language of the upper classes of society.And it remained that way for 300 years.Only these high society people could afford to eat meat.As a result, French words like porc(pork)and beouf (beef) came into the English language.However, poor English farmers raised the animals.So the English language retained the words pig and cow from the Native Anglo-Saxon.The Norman French added about 10,000 French words to the English language.Seventy-five percent of them are still in use today.According to language experts, English speakers who have never studied French may already know 15,000 French words! Between one-third and two-thirds of all English words have French origins.Some words such as “possible” and “avenue” are the same in French and English; only the pronunciations change.Other words such as “ballet” keep their French pronunciations in both languages.In French grammar, nouns have either a male or female gender (性别), so adjectives take different forms for each.English has only one adjective that does this, and it came from French.The word “blond” describes someone with lightcolored hair.“Blond” is used for men, and “blonde” describes women.And they are also nouns.Some French words that entered the English language have completely different meani ngs.The French phrase “a la mode” means “in style”.In English, the phrase means “with the ice cream”.Someone must have decided something eaten with ice cream was in style!Now, as you learn English, you're on your way to learning French!9.French was once popular among the upper classes of the UK because ____________.A.too many French moved to BritainB.French brought animals with themC.the king and his officials spoke FrenchD.the king allowed French to be spoken10.Why does an English speaker find French easy to learn?A.Because English and French share similar pronunciations.B.Because English grammar and French grammar are similar.C.Because a large number of English words have French origins.D.Because English has great influences on the French language.11.What conclusion can we draw from the text?A.Language is closely related to history and culture.B.French and English words have little in common.C.Language is controlled by the upper classes of society.D.French combines English and the Native Anglo-Saxon.DStore scent(香味)What is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop? The products displayed(展示)at the entrance? Or the soft background music?But have you ever noticed the smell? Unless it is bad,the answer is likely to be no.But while a shop's scent may not be outstanding compared with sights andsounds,it is certainly there.And it is proved to be an increasingly powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase.A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance,via scent machines.A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air.One sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores,customers' intention to purchase increased by 80 percent.When it comes to the best shopping streets in Paris,scent is just as important to a brand's success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sale.That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be.Some years ago,the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants' disproving attitude and don't-touch-what-you-can't-afford displays.Now the rise of electronic commerce (e-commerce) has opened up famous brands to a wider audience.But while e-shops can use sights and sounds,only bricks-and-mortar stores (实体店) can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave.Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop,but rather a destination.And scent is just one way to achieve this.Now,a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department,and coconut(椰子) scent in the swimsuit section.A department store has even opened a new lab,inviting customers on a journey into the store's windows to smell books,pots and drawers,in search of their perfect scent.12.According to the passage, ________ is an increasingly powerful tool in the success of some brand stores.A.friendly assistantsB.soft background musicC.unique scentsD.attractive window display13.E-shops are mentioned in the passage to ________.A.urge shop assistants to change their attitudeB.show the advantages of bricks-and-mortar storesC.push stores to use sights and soundsD.introduce the rise of e-commerce14.The underlined word“destination”in Paragraph 5 means “________”.A.a platform that exhibits goodsB.a spot where travelers like to stayC.a place where customers love to goD.a target that a store expects to meet15.The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A.compare and analyzeB.examine and concludeC.argue and discussD.inform and explainⅢ.阅读填句(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)(2016·安阳市第三十六中学高一期中)Some people learn a second language easily.__16__How can you help yourself learn a new language, such as English?

become smarter since you started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power.Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter.This is the area of the brain which processes(处理)information.It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles(肌肉).The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr.Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English.They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.Scans showed that grey matter density (密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language.But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference.“Our findings suggest that the structure(结构)of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,” said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills.“Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible (灵活的),”he said.“You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”The findings had the same result in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four.Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested.The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better.“Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,” explained the scientists.36.The main idea of this passage is ______.A. science on learning a second languageB.man's ability of learning a second languageC.that language can help brain powerD.language learning and maths study37.The underlined word “bilingual” probably means ______.A.a researcher on language learningB.a second language learnerC.a person who can speak two languagesD.an active language learner38.We may know from the scientific findings that______.A. the earlier you start to learn a second language, the higher the grey matter density isB.there is no difference between a later second language learner and one who doesn't know a second languageC.the experience of learning a second language has bad effect on people's brain D.the ability of learning a second language is changing all the time39.In the last two paragraphs, the author wants to tell us that ______.A. learning a second language is the same as studying mathsB.early learning of a second language helps you a great deal in studying other subjectsC.Italian is the best choice for you as a secondlanguageD.you'd better choose the ages between 2 and 34 to learn a second languageBJingjing Wu greets her American students as they enter the classroom.“Ni hao,”she says in Chinese.For the next hour, Chinese is all the children will hear.They're learning the language through songs, games and lots of talking.“They learn it really fast,”Wu says.“Kids remember so much.”The students go to Lomond Elementary School, in Shaker Heights, Ohio.Each week, all students in grades 1-5 in this school attend a one-hour Chinese class.Other US schools are too.The number of schools where Chinese is taught has grown, according to a report.Ten years ago, about 300 schools had Chinese programs.Today, about 1,600 schools teach Chinese.“Schools are looking to the future,” says Nancy C.Rhodes, one of the authors of the report.“China is becoming a real powerful nation, and it makes sense that we have young people who not only know the language but understand the culture.”Some US schools are working with the Chinese government and the College Board, a not-for-profit educational group, to bring Chinese teachers to this country.Teachers can stay in the US for one to three years.They give lessons in their language and teach about China.Other schools offer more intensive (加强的) language programs.Yinghua Academy is a Chinese school in Minneapolis,Minnesota.Instead of studying only the language itself, students learn all of their subjects in Chinese.They don't begin to learn in English until they're in the second grade.Students are expected to know both languages.“The goal is to develop true bilingual (双语的) students,”says Yinghua's academic director, Luyi Lien.More people speak Chinese than any other language.Students who learn Chinese may have greater chances in the future.“If you know how to speak Chinese, you open a huge door for yourself,” says Lien.40.What can we learn about the Chinese class in Lomond Elementary School?A.It lasts for one hour each day.B.It is taught by Chinese experts.C.It pays the most attention to listening.D.It is taught to students in grades 1—5.41.We can learn from the passage that______.A. more than half of Americans are learning ChineseB.more US schools teach Chinese now than in the pastC.Chinese is greatly needed in many careers in

The ways in which American kids study Chinese.B.The reasons why Chinese teachers go to America.C.The fact that kids in America are learning Chinese.D.An American school that teaches Chinese very well.CIn 1812, in a village near Paris, France, a little boy had a terrible accident.He hit himself in the eye with one of his father's sharp tools, and became blind.His name was Louis Braille, and he was only four years old.He was a clever little boy, and he soon learned to “see” without his eyes.He touched things, or smelled them, or tasted them.His family described things to him.Although he couldn't see people's faces, he learned to recognize their voices.After his seventh birthday, Louis went to the little school in the village.But there weren't any books for him.His classmates read his lessons to him and his sisters helped him with his homework.He learned his lessons well, but he couldn't learn to read or write.In 1819, the village priest (牧师) told Louis Braille's story to the director of a famous school for blind boys.At this school, boys learned math, grammar, geography, history, and music.And they learned to read!Louis went to the school in Paris in February,1819.He loved his classes and received high grades.He learned to play the piano and to knit (编织) hats and sweaters.And he learned to read—with his fingers!The raised-print letters in the books at school stood up from the surface of the paper.Louis could feel them with his fingers.He was able to recognize some of them easily, but some of them were difficult.The letters had to be very large, and sometimes there were only a few letters on a page.The books were huge and heavy. And they were expensive.There were only fourteen books in the school library!Louis read the three or four books for his class again and again.He tried to thinkof a better way to make books for blind people. He experimented with new alphabets.After about three years, Louis invented a system of raised dots.The other students thought Louis's system was wonderful.They were able to read it easily, and they learned to write, too.Today, there are thousands of Braille books for blind people.Louis Braille was only fifteen years old when he invented his wonderful system!44.Louis went to ______ in February, 1819.A.a school for blind people in ParisB.a music school for blind peopleC.a private school for blind peopleD.a school for blind people far away from Paris45.Louis Braille became famous because he invented______.A. the English alphabetB.a system of raised dots to make books for blind peopleC.books for blind people to learn mathsD.grammar books for blind people46.The main idea of this passage is that______.A. Louis was a good student at the school in ParisB.Louis learned to “see” with the help of booksC.Louis invented a system of raised dots to make books easier for blind people to readD.there are thousands of Braille books for blind peopleDWicked! Note the intonation (语调).It means“wonderful”,“great”,“cool”,“splendid”.It came into English from the United States' slang in the 1980s or maybe earlier.Certainly it arrived in Britain in the late 1980s.It was part of a trend which goes back decades to use bad words to mean good concepts,or the other way round.I mean you might remember saying,“That's great.” meaning “It isn't great.”And always there's been this use of the word “naughty” to mean “nice”.So it's part of a general trend.It's mainly used as an adjective in front of a noun, for example “We had awicked time!” Or, of course, you can use it on its own by just saying “Wicked!”as a reaction—that's how youngsters use it.And youngsters, of course, knowing that grown-ups are now using it as well, have decided to use other bad words in the same sort of way—I've heard young people in recent years use words like “evil” meaning “good”,or “brutal” meaning “good”.“Wicked” is still around.This means, of course, that the tradit ional sense of “wicked” is now being squeezed out(挤出).So with “wicked”,tone of voice is the only way to tell the old meaning from the new meaning, and even that's ambiguous (模糊的) sometimes, so you have to be careful, and pay very careful attention to the context.And notice that the word is extending its use.The other day, for the first time, I heard somebody say “wicked cool”,meaning “very cool”.47.What does the passage mainly tell readers?A. The changing meaning of English words.B.The change of the w ord “wicked” in meaning.C.The way to use English words.D.English words from American slang.48.The author tells readers to pay attention to the intonation of the word “wicked” because______.A. the word is easy to misunderstandB.its intonation decides its meaningC.there is another word with the same pronunciationD.there are many meanings of the word49.According to the passage, which of the following words is often used to express its opposite meaning?A.Cool.B.Wonderful.C.Splendid. D.Evil.50.Ac cording to the passage, we know that the word “wicked”______.A.has been used in Britain for about 30 yearsB.is only used in front of a nounC.has lost its old meaningsD.was first used by American childrenⅣ.任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)Sometimes it's easy to go into a lazy state when you leave work.You might hit the sofa and turn on the TV as soon as you get home.Instead,you know you should do useful things like reading or shopping.The following are some tips to avoid getting lazy after a long day at work.Go somewhere else.Keep moving and avoid sitting for too long when you get home.If you want to start your personal projects,you should go out and find a place where you can work or learn new things.For example,a coffee shop is an ideal place to catch up on the news.Being outside your house will make you stay away from unwanted distractions (干扰) like the TV and bed.Being in a public place will also help you stay awake longer.Practice the 10-minute rule.When working on your side projects,start by spending ten minutes on them,never less.When your time is up,you can stop and congratulate yourself on your good job.If you feel like continuing with your task,then do so.The important thing is you got started.Ten minutes is valuable when spent on taking steps towards your goal.Choose projects close to your heart.Projects you are attracted to are easier to work on.Working on something close to your heart gives you the energy and drives you to achieve your goals.If the project isn't very exciting,give yourself a reward you're passionate (有激情的) about.Write down your schedule.Writing down your schedule will make you feel encouraged and excited throughout the day.Have your evening planned even before you leave the office.Having specific goals makes it easier to get started and finish them.Keep a check-list in your workplace to keep record of all your goals.Keep your goals realistic (现实的) so you won't get discouraged; you can create more goals as you go along.Remember,you also have other duties to take care of.Get up early for your projects.Sometimes taking on side projects can feel like a difficult task especially if no ideas are coming in.When this happens,you can go to bed and wake up early instead.You can spend some time reading before going to work.Waking up early will also help you avoid the stress of rushing to work.阅读下面的短文,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。

D.In his eighties.45.Miyazaki took up 100-meter sprint as a hobby because .A.he was tired of practicing calligraphyB.no one wanted to play chess with himC.all of his friends died of old ageD.he could do it all by himself46.According to Kiyono,.A.the doctor advises Miyazaki not to do too much sportB.Miyazaki takes what the doctor says seriouslyC.old people are not fit to do 100-meter sprintD.Miyazaki practices hard every day in the park47.What could be the best title for the passage?A.105yearold Japanese became the world's oldest manB.105-year-old Japanese ranked No.1 in the worldC.105yearold Japanese completes the 100meter race in 42 secondsD.105yearold Japanese has many kinds of hobbiesDA private group of scientists has announced plans to make an exact copy of a human being.An American member of the team says he and the others will soon begin a serious effort to clone humans.Panos Zavos says the team hopes to manufacture the world's first cloned baby within the next two years.In recent years,scientists have produced exact genetic copies of sheep and a few other animals.They created these clones from a single cell of an adult animal.Three years ago,another American doctor,Richard Seed,announced plans to clone a human being.However,there is no evidence that he has been successful.Doctor Zavos says the new international group plans to offer human cloning only to women who are currently not able to become pregnant or produce children.He says the aim is to assist peoplewho want to have their own biological child.The technology would be similar to that used to clone animals.It would involve cleaning genetic material from a woman's egg.Doctors then would place genetic material from the woman's husband into the egg before putting it into the woman's uterus(子宫).Doctor Zavos says his group plans to do the work in a country near the Mediterranean Sea.He did not name the country.He says an Italian reproductive expert,Sevorino Antinori,is leading the team.Doctor Antinori has led the efforts to help many older women become pregnant.He is known for establishing pregnancies in women as old as sixty.Many medical experts and other groups are opposed to the idea of cloning humans.Several countries ban or restrict work on human cloning.Several doctors criticize the announcement by Doctor Zavos.They say doctors do not know if cloning humans is possible or safe.They say it would be irresponsible to attempt to clone a human being.That is because the chances of success are too small and the risks are too great.48.The underlined wo rd “manufacture” in the first paragraph means “”.A.produce B.opposeC.attempt D.experiment49.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.In theory,scientists are unlikely to clone humans.B.Richard Seed has fallen behind other scientists in cloning humans.C.Cloning human beings is good for men.D.People have different ideas about cloning humans.50.How do many medical experts and other groups like the idea of cloning humans?A.They are in favour of the idea.B.They are against the idea.C.They have an optimistic attitude to the idea.D.They think it is none of their business.3.任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后图表中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

be used to predict storms.Lauren Smith,24,is close to completing her study on shark's ability to sense pressure.If her studies prove the theory,scientists may be able to monitor the behaviour of sharks to predict bad weather.Miss Smith had previously studied the behaviour of lemon sharks in the Bahamas.She then used their close relatives, lesser spotted dogfish,for further research at Aberdeen University.Her work—thought to be the first of its kind to test the pressure theory—resulted from the observation that juvenile (幼年的) blacktip sharks off Florida moved into deeper water ahead of a violent storm in 2001.Miss Smith said:“I've always been crazy about travelling and diving and this led me to an interest in sharks.”“I was delighted to have been able to research in the area for my degree.I know there's so much more we need to understand—but it certainly opens the way to more research.”It has been discovered that a shark senses pressure using hair cells in its balance system.At the Bimini Shark Lab in the Bahamas,Miss Smith fixed hi-tech sensors to sharks to record pressure and temperature,while also tracking them using GPS (Global Positioning System) technology.In Aberdeen,she was able to study the effects of tidal(潮汐的)and temperature changes on dogfish—none of which were harmed.She also used a special lab which can mimic(模拟)oceanic pressure changes caused by weather fronts.She is due to complete her study and graduate later this year.She says she will be looking for a job which will give her the chance to enrich her experience of shark research.36.The passage is most probably taken from ________.A.a short-story collectionB.a popular science magazineC.a research paperD.a personal diary37.What do we learn from the first four paragraphs of the passage?A.Sharks may be used to predict bad weather.B.Sharks' behaviour can be controlled.C.Michael Fish is not qualified for his job.D.Lauren Smith will become a weather forecaster .38.Lauren Smith conducted her research by ________.A.removing hair cells from a shark's balance systemB.measuring the air pressure of weather frontsC.recording sharks' body temperatureD.monitoring sharks' reaction to weatherchanges39.What is the passage mainly about?A.A popular way of forecasting weather.B.A new research effort in predicting storms.C.Biologists' interest in the secrets of sharks.D.Lauren Smith's devotion to scientific research.B【导学号:28820044】The people who built Stonehenge in southern England thousands of years ago had wild parties, eating barbecued pigs and breaking pottery.This is according to recent work by archaeologists—history experts who investigate how human beings lived in the past.Archaeologists digging near Stonehenge last year discovered the remains of a large prehistoric village where they think the builders of the mysterious stone circle used to live.The village is about 4,600 years old,the same age as Stonehenge and as old as the pyramids in Egypt.It is less than two miles from the famous ancient landmark and lies inside a massive manmade circular dirt wall,or“henge”,known asthe Durrington Walls.Remains found at the site included jewellery,stone arrowheads,tools made of deer antlers,wooden spears and huge amounts of animal bones and broken pottery.“These finds suggest Stone Age p eople went to the village at special times of the year to feast and party”,says Mike Parker Pearson from Sheffield University in England.He said many of the pig bones they found had been thrown away half-eaten. He also said the partygoers appeared to have shot some of the farm pigs with arrows,possibly as a kind of sport before barbecuing them.An ancient road which led from the village to the River Avon was also found. Here,the experts think,people came after their parties to throw dead relatives into the water so the bodies would be washed downstream to Stonehenge.Parker Pearson believes Stonehenge was like a cemetery where ancient Britons buried the dead and remembered their ancestors.“The theory is that Stonehenge is a kind of spirit home to the ancest ors.”The recent discovery of the village within the Durrington Walls shows that Stonehenge didn't stand alone but was part of a much bigger religious site,according to Parker Pearson.People still come to worship and celebrate at Stonehenge today.They meet there when the sun sets on the shortest day of winter and when it rises on the longest day of summer.But the days of barbecuing whole pigs there and throwing family members into the river are a thing of the past.40.The underlined word“It”(Paragraph 2) r efers to ______.A.the village B.StonehengeC.the pyramid D.the dirt wall41.From the text we can infer that the people who came to the village ________.A.liked to drink wineB.knew how to huntC.were from EgyptD.lived by the River Avon42.What do experts think people did after the village parties?A.Returned to live at Stonehenge.B.Prayed for good luck in the new year.C.Hunted farm pigs as a sport.D.Put their dead relatives into the river.43.When do people most often go to Stonehenge today?A.When a new discovery is made.B.At the beginning of summer and winter.C.On the longest and shortest days of the year.D.When they want to have a barbecue.C(2016·杭州第二中学高一期中) Do you ever wonder why the English have one word for some animals and a different one for their meat? Why do they use pig and pork, cow and beef, and sheep and mutton?To find out, we have to go back to 1066, when the Norman French invaded England and put a French king on the English throne (王位), which not only changed the government but also changed the language.French became the language of the upper classes of society.And it remained that way for 300 years.Only these high society people could afford to eat meat.As a result, French words like porc(pork)and beouf (beef) came into the English language.However, poor English farmers raised the animals.So the English language retained the words pig and cow from the Native Anglo-Saxon.The Norman French added about 10,000 French words to the English language.Seventy-five percent of them are still in use today.According to language experts, English speakers who have never studied French may already know 15,000 French words! Between one-third and two-thirds of all English words have French origins.Some words such as “possible” and “avenue” are the same in French and English; only the pronunciations change.Other words such as “ballet” keep their French pronunciations in both languages.In French grammar, nouns have either a male or female gender (性别), so adjectives take different forms for each.English has only one adjective that does this, and it came from French.The word “blond” describes someone with lightcolored hair.“Blond” is used for men, and “blonde” describes women.And they are also nouns.Some French words that entered the English language have completely differentmeanings.The French phrase “a la mode” means “in style”.In English, the phrase means “with the ice cream”.Someone must have decided something eaten with ice cream was in style!Now, as you learn English, you're on your way to learning French!44.French was once popular among the upper classes of the UK because ________.A.too many French moved to BritainB.French brought animals with themC.the king and his officials spoke FrenchD.the king allowed French to be spoken45.Why does an English speaker find French easy to learn?A.Because English and French share similarpronunciations.B.Because English grammar and French grammar are similar.C.Because a large number of English words have French origins.D.Because English has great influences on the French language.46.What conclusion can we draw from the text?A.Language is closely related to history and culture.B.French and English words have little in common.C.Language is controlled by the upper classes of society.D.French combines English and the Native Anglo-Saxon.DStore scent(香味)What is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop? The products displayed(展示)at the entrance? Or the soft background music?But have you ever noticed the smell? Unless it is bad,the answer is likely to be no.But while a shop's scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds,it is certainly there.And it is proved to be an increasingly powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase.A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance,via scent machines.A smell may beattractive but it may not just be used for freshening air.One sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores,customers' intention to purchase increased by 80 percent.When it comes to the best shopping streets in Paris,scent is just as important to a brand's success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sale.That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be.Some years ago,the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants' disproving attitude and don't-touch-what-you-can't-afford displays.Now the rise of electronic commerce (e-commerce) has opened up famous brands to a wider audience.But while e-shops can use sights and sounds,only bricks-and-mortar stores (实体店) can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave.Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop,but rather a destination.And scent is just one way to achieve this.Now,a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department,and coconut(椰子) scent in the swimsuit section.A department store has even opened a new lab,inviting customers on a journey into the store's windows to smell books,pots and drawers,in search of their perfect scent.47.According to the passage, ________ is an increasingly powerful tool in the success of some brand stores.A.friendly assistantsB.soft background musicC.unique scentsD.attractive window display48.E-shops are mentioned in the passage to ________.A.urge shop assistants to change their attitudeB.show the advantages of bricks-and-mortar storesC.push stores to use sights and soundsD.introduce the rise of e-commerce49.The underlined word“destination”in Paragraph 5 means “________”.A.a platform that exhibits goodsB.a spot where travelers like to stayC.a place where customers love to goD.a target that a store expects to meet50.The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A.compare and analyzeB.examine and concludeC.argue and discussD.inform and explainⅣ.任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)As a saying goes, “If you have a good friend, your joys are doubled and your sorrows are halved”. Friends are a helping hand, a comforting shoulder to lean on, a patient ear to listen to you and most importantly, a warm and loving hug to embrace (拥抱) you. Man is a social animal by nature. We all need friends, as they are there for us when we need support, just as we are there for them whenever they need us. Therefore, it is necessary for you to know how to make friends.The first step is to open yourself up. If you want to make good friends, you should be able to share your thoughts and feelings with other people first. Only when you share something of yourself with others, can you begin making friends. When your friends open a conversation with you, they are usually expecting you to share information in return. That is to say, when you are in a conversation, you'd better express your own thoughts and feelings. If a conversation is one-side, the person doing all the talking may think the other person is not interested in what he is saying. So, when talking with your friends, be sure that the conversation is a two-way street.One of the most important keys to building a solid (坚固的) friendship with other people is to listen to them—really listen. When your friends tell you something that happened to them or complain(埋怨) about a situation, they are usually not looking for agreement but just want to be heard. So don't try to change their mind or solve their problems, just let them know that you are listening to them.Respecting your friends is also important to keep your relationships healthy and strong. Looking at your friends while they are talking to you is one way to show your respect, as they will feel that what they are saying is important to you.Unconditional support and encouragement is one of the things which friends have. True friendship means offering a shoulder when they need it, crying with them when they are sad, and laughing with them when they are happy. Only in this way, can the tree of friendship last for a long time.(2015·江苏高考)阅读下面文字及图表,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
