Thanks to modern technology, we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force. New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expense while increasing overall output. This has meant more production and a higher standard of living. For most of us in America, modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food available to us, by means of modern farming machinery and animal breeding techniques, and has extended our life span via medical technology.Will mankind continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life? In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it widely. If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. The advancement of technology depends upon research and development, and the latest statistics show that the United States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually into such efforts. So while we are running out of some scarce resources we may well find technological substitutes for many of them through our research programs.Therefore, in the final analysis the three major factors of production (land, labor and capital) are all influenced by technology. When we need new skills on techniques in medicine, people will start developing new technology to meet those needs. As equipment proves to be slow or inefficient, new machines will be invented. Technology responds to our needs in helping us maintain our standard of living.43. What is the best title for the passage?A. The definition of technologyB. Modern technologyC. The application of technologyD. The development of technology44. From the passage, we can infer that this article is probably _________.A. a part of the introduction to American businessB. followed by the passage talking about factors of productionC. taken from a learned journalD. Both A and B45. Which is the main idea of the passage?A. Modern technology is the key to the improvement of standard of living.B. The three major factors of production-land, labor and capital are all influenced by technology.C. Technology is the response to our needs.D. The United States is making great efforts to advance its technology.46. According to the passage, people can live a long life with the help of _________.A. higher quality of lifeB. medical technologyC. modem farming machineryD. technological substitute限时训练七答题卡（时间：40分钟满分：100分）姓名_________________ 得分_________________ 一．语法填空（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）1. _______________2. _______________3. _______________4. _______________ 4. _______________ 6. _______________ 7. _______________ 7. _______________ 9. _______________ 10. _______________二．单项选择。

I didn’t know initially the baby was in danger and there wa s an AMBER Alert,” Blevin said.Even though everything appeared pretty normal, Blevin’s insti ncts told him something was wrong. After parking his car, a lo cal woman walked over and confirmed his suspicions. The lad y told him quietly, “Help me save this baby.” She said, “You h ave to save this baby.

The females have the same pattern, b ut they are a little duller in color.RangeThe American robins can be found in all of the United States and Canada except for Hawaii and the northernmost parts of Alaska and . They can also be found in parts of Mexico and C entral America.

A female robin ma y breed two or three times a season. A female robin builds a c up－shaped nest with soft tree branches, grass and feathers. She spreads mud on the inside of the nest with her breast. After s he lines the nest with the mud, she will add grass and other s oft materials. Sometimes a male robin helps to collect materia ls for the nest. The nest is built five to fifteen feet above the gr ound in a tree or bush. Sometimes a robin builds its nest on a window ledge. A female robin will lay three to five eggs at a ti me and it will take about two weeks before the baby robins are born.5. What is the color of male American robins' chest feathers?A. Dark gray.B. BrownC. Gray.D. Reddish－orange.6. What do we know about American robins' life cycle，according to the last paragraph?A. Robins only mate in April and July.B.

The passage is most likely to be taken from ________．A. a news reportB. a nature magazineC. a history bookD.a learning websiteCIn fairy tales, it's usually the princess that needs p rotecting. At Google in Silicon Valley, the princess is the one defending the castle. Parisa Tabriz is a 31-year-old with perhaps the most unique job title in engineering- “Go ogle Security Princess”. Her job is to hack into the most popul ar web browser on the planet, trying to find weaknesses in the system before the “black hats” do. To defeat Google's attack ers, must firstly think like them.'s role has evolved dramatically in the eight years since she fir st started working at Google. Back then, the young graduate f rom was one of 50 security engineers---today there are over 500.Cybercrime（网络犯罪）has come a long way in the past decade - from the Nigerian P rince Scam to credit card theft. Tabriz's biggest concern now is the people who fi nd bugs in Google's software, and sell the information to gove rnments or criminals. To fight against this, the company has s et up a Vulnerability Rewards Program, paying anywhere fro m $100 to $ 20, 000 for reported mistakes.It's a world away from Tabriz's computer-free childhood home in . The daughter of an Iranian-American doctor father, and Polish-American nurse mother, had little contact with computers unti l she started studying engineering at college. Gaze across a li ne-up of Google security staff today and you'll find women like Ta briz are few and far between（稀少的）--- though in the last few years she has hired more female tech geniuses. She admits th ere's an obvious gender disequilibrium in Silicon Valley. Funnily enough, during training sessions first asks new collea gues to hack into not a computer, but a vending machine. Tab riz's job is as much about technological know-how（专门知识）as understanding the psychology of attackers.8. What can we learn about from the passage?A. She was the first female engineer at Google.B. She must think differently so as to defeat the attackers.C. Her job relates to not only technology but also psychology.D. Her frequent contact with computers in childhood benefits her a lot.9. Why has Google set up a Vulnerability Rewards Program?A. To protect Google against cybercrime.B. To monitor the normal operation of Google.C. To help the government locate the cybercriminals.D. To raise people's awareness of personal information safety .10. What does the underlined word “disequilibrium” in Paragra ph 4 refer to?A. Imbalance.B. Preference.C. Difference.D. Discrimination.11. Which of the following could be the best title of this passa ge?A. What leads to cybercrimeB. The “Security Princess” who guards GoogleC. Measures taken by Google to protect its usersD. How to become an excellent security engineerDI READ mostly fiction before I was introduced to CaMalcolm Gladwell's work.In his TED talk called "Choice, Happiness, an d Spaghetti Sauce "，he used the examples of Pepsi and spaghetti sauce to argue t hat giving people choices makes them happy. If I had only he ard his conclusion statement and missed the evidence that he employed，I would have been wondering how he could argue such an int eresting point. But he structured his argument like a detective story, with each puzzle piece contributing to the conclusion. Fascinated,I borrowed his book Outliers: The Story of Succes s from the library. Each chapter had its own story and argume nt,and all of the arguments were about factors that contribute d to an individual' s success in the world.The depth of his research was amazing. In the first chapter,he analyzed the reasons behind the crash of Korean Air Flight 8 01 in 1997，which killed more than 220 people. The disaster took place pa rtly because the co-pilot didn't point out the mistakes that the pilot was making. InSouth Korea，it' s disrespectful to disagree with higher ups even if they are doing something wrong.Perhaps most interesting of all，Gladwell explained why Asians are so good at math. He said Asians get an advantage when they learn how to count becau se their language has fewer syllables (音节) and makes numbers easier to remember.But Gladwell is mostly interested in answering my favorite que stion，"Why?” And that’s exactly why I love his works. After reading Outliers: The Story of Success and other books like it，I found myself questioning my commonly-accepted beliefs much more often. After all，why should we take anything for granted?12. Why does the author write this article?A.To promote some of Gladwell’s books.B.To introduce Gladwell and his books.C. To show how Gladwell did research for his books.D. To explain why he enjoys Gladwell’s books.13. How did the author feel about Gladwell’s TED talk?A.Surprising but persuasive.B. Refreshing but puzzling.C. Interesting but doubtful.D. Funny but conclus ive.14. What can we know from the passage?A.Eating spaghetti sauce can make you happy.B. Carelessness caused the Korean air crash in 1997.C.Fewer syllables give Asians an advantage in learning math.D.The Story of Success is about Gladwell’s personal success.15. What really makes the author fall in love with Gladwell’s works?A. His strong arguments. C. His amazing research.B. His detective-like stories. D. His questioning spirit.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共1 0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。

I’m greatly thankful to the students of Southridge High School.”Todd Corsetti, the headmaster at Southridge High School said that seeing Katie as prom queen and the energy and help of his students is one of his “proudest moments.”“I think teenagers have great hearts and are really looking to make the world a better place,”Todd said. “As we finish our school year, it’s a great legacy(遗产) to leave the other classes who come after them.”24.

Unlike you, they also studied Greek and Latin. Actually, students spent more than half their time studying Greek and Latin.The same was true for most students in Europe. Until the seventh century, all educated Europeans knew Latin. It did not matter if they lived in England, Italy, France or Spain. If they were educated, they knew Latin.During the seventh century, educated Europeans began to study Greek as well as Latin. Greek and Latin had been the leading languages of the ancient Greeks and Romans. All educated Europeans were expected to know these languages.To educated Europeans, the languages of the Greeks and the Romans were important. The ideas of the Greeks and Romans were also important. People knew that many of their own ideas had come from the Greeks and the Romans. To understand their own culture, they must understand its origin. They knew that those beginnings lay in the classical world.Today we have so many things to study that few people have time to learn Greek and Latin. Few of you will study either language in school. Yet the ideas of the Greeks and the Romans are still important to us. These ideas still help to shape Western culture today. To understand our own culture, we must understand the culture of the classical world.28.Two hundred years ago, in American schools _______.A. there were many educated GreeksB. Greek and Latin were very popularC. students paid little attention to mathD. students knew little about geography29. Europeans thought _______ according to the passage.A. the origin of their culture was unknownB. the ideas of the Greeks were unacceptableC. Greek was much more important than LatinD. the Romans had a great effect on their culture30. Where does the author of the passage probably come from?A. Japan.B. Greece.C. America.D. China.31. The last paragraph suggests that _________.A. it’s of great value to learn Greek and Latin.B. it’s quite difficult to learn Greek and Latin.C. the culture of the classical world is of no use nowadaysD. Western culture is different from Greek and Roman culturesDThe food chain is the order in which animals and plants eat each other in order to survive. Every living creature needs to eat other creatures below it. Every ecosystem has a different food chain, depending on which animals and plants live there.The lowest part of the food chain are the plants. They are called producers because they produce their own food by using the sunlight's energy. This process is called photosynthesis(光合作用). Animals are the consumers of the food chain. They eat other plants and animals.Some animals only eat plants. Among this group of herbivores are rabbits, mice and cows. Carnivores are animals that eat other animals, like wolves, foxes and lions.Each food chain has a predator, the strongest animal that is not eaten by others. Hawks or polar bears are such predators that dominate（支配）their habitats.Many creatures belong to more than one food chain. Grass, for example, is eaten by many other animals. Food chains that are connected to each other are called food webs.When an animal dies it is eaten up by worms, bacteria and other organisms. These so-called decomposers break down dead animals and plants into small parts and enrich soil so that other plants can grow better. The nutrients of dead animals and plants are converted back to the soil so that plants can use them again.The balance of plants and animals within a food chain is determined by nature. For example, if there are too many zebras in a tropical habitat, many of them will die because they cannot get enough food to feed on. This also means that there is less food for predators, like lions, to eat. And when there are fewer lions the zebra population will grow again.32. What does the food chain of a certain ecosystem depend on?A. Which animals and plants live there.B. Whether animals and plants eat each other.C. How many kinds of plants are living there.D.

高三A部英语周练试卷2017.10.18第一部分：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AI was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg last night, a distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left, and I was clinching (紧握）my fists with impatience.At one point along an open highway, I came to a crossroads with the traffic light. I was alone on the road by now, but as I approached the light, it turned red and I braked to stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of headlights, but there I sat, waiting for the light to change, the only human being for at least a mile in any direction.I started wondering why I refused to run the light. I was not afraid of being arrested，because there were obviously no police around, and there certainly would have been no danger in going through it.Much later that night, the question of why I'd stopped for that light came back to me. I think I stopped because it's part of an agreement we all have with each other. It's not only the law, but it's an agreement we have, and we trust each other to honor it: we don't go through red lights.It's amazing that we ever trust each other to do the right thing, isn't it? And we do, too. Trust is our first tendency. We have to make a deliberate decision to mistrust someone or to be suspicious or skeptical. Those attitudes don't come naturally to us.It's a very good thing too，because the whole structure of our society depends on mutual trust, not distrust. This whole thing around us would fall apart if we didn't trust each other most of the time. We do what we say we'll do; we show up when we say we'11 show up;we deliver when we say we'll deliver;and we pay when we say we'11 pay. We trust each other in these matters, and when we don't do what we've promised, it's far from the normal. It happens often that we don't act in good faith and in a trustworthy manner, but we still consider it unusual, and we're angry or disappointed with those badly-behaved people. Anyway I was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night.1. Why did the author feel impatient while driving?A. Because he had already driven for a long time.B. Because it was too far away from his destination.C. Because he could not overpass a truck on a narrow road.D. Because something urgent happened in his family.2. The author stopped at the traffic light because_____.A. there were passers-by crossing the roadB. some policemen were on duty just at that pointC. there was potential dangerD. the trust between people influenced the author3. What would happen if people didn't trust each other in most cases?A. The social system would be thrown into disorder.B. All the things would run normally.C. the social traditions would be abandoned.D. Strict rules and laws would be made.4. What is the theme of the passage?A. A bird in hand is worth two in the bush.B. Mutual Trust is the best policy.C. Actions speak louder than words.D.
