高三英语周练试卷2017.9.16
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）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Nikenson’s dad died when he was 3, and his mom often couldn’t afford his school fees, so he got kicked out of school sometimes. But Nikenson would steal back onto the school grounds and stand outside the open classroom windows to listen, day after day. He studied on his own, keeping pace so that when his mom earned a few dollars, he could enter class again.
Against all difficulties, Nikenson graduated from high school this year, first in his class, with straight A’s, and was elected class president. Nikenson is a reminder of the basic saying of life today: gift is universal, but opportunity is not.
Fortunately, with the help of some American people, Nikenson is now receiving a university education. He’s benefiting from a program started by Bohan, a young American who was teaching in a Haitian high school. Bohan asked his family and friends to help other Haitians go to college. The program grew and became the Haitian Education and Leadership Program, or HELP, sending hundreds of young men and women to Haitian universities.
“Education works,” Bohan said simply. “Good education works for everybody, everywhere. It worked for you, for me, and it works for Haitian. Over time, I’ve concluded that education may be the single best way to help people help themselves, whether in America or abroad. Yet, as a nation, we don’t put enough money in education. So, in this holiday season, I’d suggest a mom ent to raise a glass and celebrate those who spread the gift of education.”
One clever new high school graduate, Elice, was working as a worker in a village and earning just $50 a month. HELP sent him to college to study industrial engineering, and he just graduated and found a job at a European company as an engineer for $1,500 a month.
“The only difference is his access to education.” said Bohan.
21. Why couldn’t Nikenson continue to study in school?
A. Because he liked standing outside the open classroom.
B. Because his family was too poor to afford school fees.
C. Because he often stole things in the school.
D. Because his father died at an early age.
22. What does the underlined sentence in the second paragraph refer to?
A. P eople with gift don’t need opportunity.
B. Gift is more necessary than opportunity.
C. Chances are also important to gifted people.
D. Gifted people can succeed in everything they do.
23. What’s the purpose of Bohan starting HELP?
A. To raise money for Americans.
B. To build more high schools in Haiti.
C. To help Haitians receive a university education.
D. To send poor American students to study abroad. 24. According to the passage, Bohan thinks ________.
A. Elice ought to be one of the HELP’s members
B. everyone should work for education
C. more people will spread the gift of education soon
D. education can make a big difference in life

C
Since she was a young girl, Virginia Neves has been working in the fields, but when a USAID-supported project introduced the benefits of growing orange-fleshed sweet potatoes in 2003, her business flourished （兴旺）and her life started to change.
Growing crops like cabbage and maize （玉米）made supporting four small children and a large family a challenge for Nerves, who lived in a small bamboo hut and worked a full day on a tiny plot of land.
USAID （U.S. Agency for International Development）support for the International Potato Center led to a national campaign to promote the various benefits of orange-fleshed sweet potato, saying that it is high in Vitamin A and easy to plant in diverse soil conditions. In addition, sweet potato is a new market choice and is being used as a new ingredient （原料）in baked goods, such as breads and cakes.
Experts from the International Potato Center worked with Mozambique National Agriculture Research Institute and 120 different national and international partners including farmers’ associations to reach and teach farmers like Nerves about the benefits of the crop and its market possibilities. They also linked farmers to potential clients （客户）and new markets.
Neves’ outstanding success in growing and selling sweet potatoes made her stand out from the community. She eventually started an independent partnership with her own clients who bought her crop under contracts.
“Thanks to the inc ome I receive from my sweet potato crop, I have been able to build a house and provide my children with food, clothes, and school.” Neves said. In the future, Neves hopes to renew her new home, including adding more rooms and possibly painting the house orange in honor of her favored crop.
28. The national potato campaign attracted Neves mainly because the sweet potato ________.
A. was high in Vitamin A
B. was very easy to plant
C. could be used widely
D. might bring great benefits
29. Which shows the correct order of the events?
①Neves grew cabbage to support her large family.
②Neves succeeded and planned to renew her house.
③Neves had an independent partnership with her own clients.
④Neves learned about the benefits of planting sweet potatoes.
A. ①②③④
B. ②③④①
C. ③①②④
D. ①④③②
30. Which saying can best describe Neves’ experience?
A. Easier said than done.
B. Something attempted, something done.
C. Well begun is half done.
D. Better late than never.
31. What could be the best title for the text?
A. Neves, a Great Mother
B. A New Material for Food
C. Orange Potatoes Change Life
D. A Better Hope for the Future
D
The tree fruits on its trunk. No, this isn’t an April Fool’s trick. They look as if they may have been pinned there by an over-enthusiastic gardener to impress the neighbors, but the fruit of the Jabuticaba really does grow off the trunk of the tree.
Known as the Brazilian Grape Tree, this plant is native to South America, especially Paraguay, Argentina and mostly from Brazil. The fruit, a juicy-looking purple color, can be plucked and eaten straight from the tree.
It is also a popular ingredient in jellies and is also juiced to make a refreshing summer drink. What is more, it can be made into wine.
If you want one of these in your garden, then you have to be patient. The tree takes an age to grow, but once it reaches maturity, it is worth it. However, it’s proven to be very adaptable and, although it prefers wet and slightly acid soils, it will even grow well in an alkaline （碱性的）type soil.
The flowers themselves appear on the tree twice a year at most. They look like some strange creatures from other planets that have fixed themselves on the trunk and branches. The habit of flowers doing this makes them cauliflorous（茎生花的）. Instead of growing new branches, these plants flower direct from the woody trunk. Why? The answer is that it’s developed in this manner so that animals that cannot climb very high can reach it, eat it and then spread the seeds everywhere.
If the tree is well watered, it will flower and fruit all the year round. The fruit itself is about four centimeters wide and has up to four large seeds. As well as being used as food, the skins can be dried out and used to treat some diseases.
32. The text mainly talks about ________.
A. the way to grow the Jabuticaba
B. the Jabuticaba, a strange tree in South America
C. the way the Jabuticaba spreads its seeds
D. the usage of the Jabuticaba’s fruits
33. What does the underlined word in paragraph 4 mean?
A. variety
B. height
C. adulthood
D. period
34. Which of the following information about the tree is TRUE?
A. It is highly adaptable to the environment.
B. Its flowers can be used in medicine.
C. It is mostly from Argentina.
D. The skin of its fruit can’t be eaten.
35. It can be inferred that ________.
A. animals are the main distributors of the Jabuticaba’s seeds
B. the fruit of the Jabutieaba produces small seeds
C. the flowers of the Jabutieaba look beautiful
D. the Jabuticaba grows quickly

Family love is one of the most valuable gifts in life and one that you cannot buy anywhere. __36
Here are four ways for you to become closer to your family:
Increase Your Love
You’ve probably heard the song lyric, “37 ” What changes a house into a home is true love. Love strengthens the connection, while anger tears it apart.
Give Freedom
It doesn’t matter whatever position you have in a family; you need to give freedom to the other members of it. 38 Freedom is one of the most basic needs of humanity and one of the greatest gifts in life.
Learn to Forgive
There will always be differences in personalities and preferences between family members. Because of these differences, disagreements happen. And it’s unwise to react straight away, to jump to conclusions and start an argument. 39 This gives you a better understanding and the ability to forgive more easily.
Look for Solutions
Family life is not a battlefield. Do not focus on problems; instead, focus on the solutions. Although we are all expected to be responsible for our actions, it still feels more comfortable for some to put the blame on others.
40 This is one of the fastest ways lo bring you closer to your family.
A. No one likes to be ruled all the time.
B. Stop the blame game, and look for solutions.
C. A house is not a home, when there is no one there to hold you tight.
D. When disagreements happen, put yourself in the other person’s shoes.
E. Whether you have a close relationship with your family depends on you.
F. In a close relationship there will definitely be a lot of arguments, disharmony and disagreements.
G. Spending some time with family members is one of the factors that can strengthen our family connections.

高三英语周练（1）试题 命题人：考试时间：50分钟总分：89分 Ⅰ. 阅读理解(满分39分) A Food festivals around the world Stilton Cheese Rolling May Day is a traditional day for celebrations, but the 2,000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include cheese rolling in their annual plans. Teams of four, dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes, roll a complete cheese along a 50-metre course. On the way, they must not kick or throw their cheese, or go into their competitors' lane(赛道). Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly, but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones). All the competitors are served with beer or port wine, the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese. Fiery Foods Festival—The Hottest Festival on Earth Every year more than 10,000 people head for the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. They come from as far away as Australia, the Caribbean and China, but they all share a common addiction—food that is not just spicy(辛辣),but hot enough to make your mouth burn, your head spin and your eyes water. Their destination is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three days every March. You might like to try a chocolate-covered habanero pepper—officially the hottest pepper in the world—or any one of the thousands of products that are on show. But one thing's for sure—if you don't like the feeling of a burning tongue, this festival isn't for you! La Tomatina—The World's Biggest Food Fight On the last Wednesday of every August, the Spanish town of Bunol hosts La Tomatina—the world's largest food fight. A week-long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week's events. The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes—official fight-starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd. The battle lasts little more than half an hour, in which time around 50,000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves, runs, or fights back. Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again—and for a much-needed wash! 1. In the Stilton cheese rolling competition, competitors on each team must________. A. wear various formal clothes B. roll a wooden cheese in their own lane C. kick or throw their cheese D. use a real cheese weighing about four kilos 2. Where is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival held? A. In New Mexico. B. In the Caribbean. C. In Australia. D. In China.

高考真题周周练（4） 阅读理解 A Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona. He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends. My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A's and unhappy with m y boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard. On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father's friends for lunch at an outdoor café. We talked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son's funny facial expressions. Gone was my father's critical (挑剔的) air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before? The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I'm at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I'm delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was. 21. Why did the author feel bitter about her father as a young adult? A.

The fruits that made it to the UK were green on the outside and, more often than not, hard with an unpleasant taste within. Then in 1966, the Del Monte Gold pineapple produced in Hawaii first hit our shelves.
