2014河南方城高二英语5月月考试卷(含答案)第一部分:阅读理解(每题2分,满分40分)AThe other day I heard a few local musicians talking“I hate all the terrible pianos in this town. I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They can’t even understand a bit of music.”“I’m never playing in that club again. Too many drunks and nobody listens to us.”But, one younger musician said, “There are a few clubs that book my band a few nights a month, and I’m trying to find other places to play. I’m also looking to book a few summer festivals this year.”I’ve heard that you are the average of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are.Attitudes are important. Whether they’re positive or negative, they’re rubbing off on you. If you’re around people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians, or blame (责怪) others, and you play the role of victim (受害者), chances are you will start to as well. So it’s time to take a look at the people you call “friends”.This is an easy exercise Make a list of the people who you hang out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard (标准) for yourself and don’t become friends with people who fall below that standard. Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it. Ask if they will help you get the work you’re looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.21. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. A friend in need is a friend indeedB. How to make friendship last for everC. You are who your friends areD. Friends are the most important in one’s success22. The underlined sentence “they’re rubbing off on you” in Paragraph 6 m eans ______.A. they’ll push you aheadB. they’ll influence youC. they’ll cover your shortcomingsD. they’ll help you achieve your goal23. The musicians’ words at the beginning are written mainly to show ______.A. the musicians’ living conditions are q uite poorB. people have poor taste in musicC. people have different attitudes towards the same thingD. young people have greater chances of succeeding24. By taking the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 7, you can ______.A. improve a lot in making more friendsB. come to the right way of making friendsC. develop a better relationship with your friendsD. arrange the time with your friends properlyBIn the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses”is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbours.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way if life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses”because “Jones”is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr Jones always seems to be ahead.25.Some people want to keep up with the Joneses bacause they _______.A.want to be as rich as their neigboursB.want others to know or to think that they are richC.don’t want others to know they are richD.want to be happy26.It can be inferred from the story that rich people like to _______.A.live outside New York CityB.live in New York cityC.live in apartmentsD.have many neighbours27.Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because “Jones” is ______.A.an important nameB.a popular name in the United StatesC.his neighbour’s nameD.not a good name28.According to the writer, it is _______ to keep up with the Joneses.A.correctB.interestingC.impossibleD.goodCReal Christmas trees on farms would not exist if people stopped buying them. Just one acre of growing Christmas trees produces the daily oxygen requirements for at least eighteen people.Christmas tree farms protect water supplies, stabilize soil, and help protect wildlife. The forests of North America spread over roughly the same area of land as they did a century ago and in the past ten years have in fact expanded by almost ten million acres. Furthermore, to guarantee a steady supply, one to three new seedlings are planted for every tree they harvest.With global warming being such a major concern, developing woodlands is an essential part of the fight. While potted trees are a better alternative than artificial, they require a certain amount of care. Bur it would be a better choice than a plastic tree which will remain under the ground for centuries once it’s discarded.On average, it takes a Christmas tree five to sixteen years to become mature. Before the Christmas tree industry appeared, people used to cut trees from forests, sometimes unlawfully, and usually with no concern for the possible harm to the forest. But today, Christmas tree growers plant as many as fifty million trees per year.Several districts have recycling programs that turn Christmas trees into mulch (覆盖物).For a small fee, the Boy Scouts will deal with it. Fake Christmas trees can’t be recycled, while real Christmas trees support life. We shouldn’t add more pollution to our earth.If you know a needy family in need of a Christmas tree, buy them a real one. Give a live Christmas tree to someone this Christmas and what you do will help protect the environment.29 .The underlined word “discarded”(in Paragraph3) can be replaced by _______.A.plantedB. moved C .transported D. deserted30 .We may infer from the passage that the Boy Scouts will _______.A. buy artificial Christmas treesB. sell real Christmas treesC. make artificial Christmas trees D .recycle real Christmas trees31 .The purpose of the passage is to call on people to _______.A. plant real Christmas treesB. stop cutting down Christmas treesC. stop buying fake Christmas treesD. deal with plastic Christmas treesDBeijing’s markets will soon be flooded with more and cheaper colourful fruit such as orange mangos and green durian (榴莲) all year round.Thanks to a new free trade agreement signed last Monday between China and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations(ASEAN), more and more tropical Southeast Asian fruit will enter the country.The agreement means that from July 1,2005, China and ASEAN countries will begin to cut tariffs. There are about 7,000 products included in the cuts.As global communication develops, countries are trading more and more goods with each other. When products are sold across national borders, countries put a tax on them. This type of tax is called a tariff.Just like removing an obstacle from the path of these goods, the reduction of tariffs will encourage trade between China and ASEAN countries. It means more products and lower prices.The agreement will bring real benefits for Chinese customers, said a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman. “In the Beijing markets you will easily find more tropical fruit like durian, which used to very, very, very expensive. Now they will be cheaper.” The current tarif f rate on durian is 22 per cent but will fall to zero in 2005.In the first 10 months of this year China did US$84.6 billion of trade with ASEAN countries. Experts believe this may reach US$100 billion next year.Founded in 1967, ASEAN now includes Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Thailand, Brunei, Viet Nam, Myanmar, Cambodia and Laos.32.A tariff is money paid .A.when buying goodsB.to sell or buy products of foreign brand namesC.to sell or buy goods across the border of the countryD.to go through the customs33.Which of the following statements about the agreement is NOT true?A.It will result in an increase in trade between China and ASEAN countries.B.In might cause the prices of ASEAN products to fall.C.It may greatly benefit the Chinese customers.D.It won’t bring any benefits to producers of ASEAN countries.34.We can infer from the story that .A.China lacks fruitB.tariffs are an important factor in foreign tradeC.tropical countries have cheaper fruitD.China prefers to trade with ASEAN countries35.The best title for this passage is .A.Tariff Cut Boosts TradeB.Best Ways To Sell FruitsC.Tropical Fruit To ChinaD.China Joins ASEANETaking good notes is a time-saving skill that will help you to becomea better student in several ways36 Second, your notes are excellent materials to refer to when you are studying for a test. Third, note-taking offers variety to your study time and helps you to hold your interest.You will want to take notes during classroom discussions and whilereading a textbook or doing research for a report.37 Whenever or however you take notes, keep in mind that note-taking is a selective process.38The following methods may work best for you.●Read the text quickly to find the main facts and ideas in it.●Carefully read the text and watch for words that can show main points andsupporting facts.● Write your notes in your own words.● 39● Note any questions or ideas you may have about what wa s said or written.As you take notes, you may want to use your own shorthand(速记).

(A)Survey Studies Internet Use in ChinaA typical(典型的) Chinese Internet user is a young male who prefers instant messaging to e-mail, seldom makes online purchases and favors news, music and games sites.According to a study, about two-thirds of survey participants(参与者) use the Internet for news — often entertainment-related —or for online games.About half download music and movies.They also tend to prefer instant messaging to e-mail, and they are depending on the Internet more frequently than before to communicate with others who have the same professions, hobbies and political interests.Online purchases still remain unpopular inChina.Three-quarters of users surveyed have never bought anything over the Internet, and only 10 percent make purchases even once a month.Among those who do buy online, most pay for entertainment while others buy phone cards, or computer hardware or software.“Many people don’t trust the quality of goods bought online,〞 Guo said Wednesday.“If they buy it in a store and don’t like it, they can easily bring it back.〞The survey(调查) was done in five major cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu and Changsha.Results do not necessarily project countrywide because Internet use in rural areas is lower than in cities.Guo describes the typical netizen(民) in the five cities surveyed as young, male, richer and more highly educated.Males make up two-thirds of the Internet community, and more than 80 percent of users are under 24.Among people ages 25 to 29, 60 percent to 80 percent go online.China has more than 100 million people online, second in the world to the United States.56.A typical Chinese Internet user will be the one who _________.A.likes to send e-mails B.likes to buy goods online C.likes to pay for entertainment D.likes the games sites 57.Online purchases still remain unpopular in China mainly because _________.A.it is more difficult for sales returns B.people haven’t computersC.people can’t have a look at the goods D.goods bought online are of low quality58.Which of the following words fails to describe the typical netizensin the five cities?A.well educated B.richer C.female D.young 59.According to the text, which of the following shows the right relation between online people and their ages?A .B .C .D .(B)Beldon and Canfield are two seashore towns, not far apart.Both towns have many hotels, and in summer the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other tourists.Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon.The next day, this news appeared on page two of the town’s newspaper.The Beldon Post:FIRE AT SEABREEZELate last night firemen hurried to the Seabreeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom.The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire.We say again to all our visitors:“Please don’t smoke cigarettes in bed.〞This was Beldon’s first hotel fire for five years. The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one: ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRELast night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Seabreeze Hotel.An angry holiday-maker said, “An electric lamp probably started the fire.The bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotels.When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp.〞 We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in Canfield.What are the facts, then? It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident.There was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel last August: that is one fact.Do we know anything else? Yes, we know that firemen went to the hotel.Now what do you think of the rest of the “news〞 ?60.Which of the following best gives the main idea of this text?A.Beldon and Canfield are both good places for tourists in summer.B.A fire broke out night in Seabreeze Hotel last summer.C.It was not easy to find out exact truth from newspapers.D.Two newspapers gave reports on the same matter.61.Which of the following are probably facts?a.The fire broke out in a bedroom at the hotel.b.A cigarette started the fire.c.An old lamp started the fire.d.The fire broke out at night.e.There has never been a fire in Canfield.A.b and c B.a and d C.c and e D.a and c62.The Canfield Times used the headline like this in order to make its readers think _____________.A.hotels in Beldon often catch fireB.hotels in Beldon don’t often catch fireC.this was the second fire at the Seabreeze HotelD.Beldon was a good place except that hotels there are not quite safe63.The Canfield newspaper gave a report just the opposite to the Beldon Post by saying that _______.A.the bedroom lamps were very old at the Seabreeze HotelB.the bedroom lights made funny noise when the fire took place C.the firemen failed to save clothing, bedclothes and other things D.such accidents never happened in Canfield for the past 5 years〔C〕Centuries ago, man discovered that removing moisture (湿度,水分) from food helps to store it, and that the easiest way to do this is to expose the food to sun and wind.All foods including water—cabbage and other leaf vegetables contains as much as 93% water, potatoes and other root vegetables 80%, lean (瘦的) meat 75% and fish, anything from 80% to 60%, depending on how fatty it is.If this water is removed, the activity of the bacteria which cause food to go bad is controlled.Nowadays most foods are dried mechanically.The conventional method of such dehydration (脱水) is to put food in chambers (室) through which hot air is blown at temperature of about 110℃ at entry to about 43℃at exit.This is the usual method for drying such things as vegetables, mincemeat and fish.Liquids such as milk, coffee, tea, soups and eggs may be dried by pouring them over a heated steel cylinder (圆筒), then put them into a chamber through which a current of hot air passes.In the first process, the dried material comes off the roller as a thin film which is then broken up into small, though still relatively flakes (薄片).In the second process it falls to the bottom of the chamber as small powder.Where recognizable pieces of meat and vegetables are required, as in soup, the ingredients (成分) are dried separately and then mixed.Dried foods take up less room and weigh less than the same food packed in cans or frozen, and they do not need to be stored in special conditions.For these reasons they are convenient to the climbers, explorers and soldiers in battle, who have little storage space.They are also popular with housewives because it takes so little time to cook them.64.It can be inferred from the passage that _______________________.A.the fattier fish contain as much water as the lean oneB.the fattier the fish is, the more water it may containC.a fatty fish holds less water than a lean oneD.the water content of fish has nothing to do with the content of their fat65.The underlined word “conventional〞 in Paragraph 3 can most probably be replaced by _______.A.particular B.scientific C.usual D.special66.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE about drying food?A.The removal of water in food helps prevent it from going rotten.B.The open-air method of drying food has been known for hundreds of years.C.In the course of dehydration, the temperature of hot current coming from entry to exit is gradually going up.D.The process of drying liquids is much more complex than that of drying solid food.67.The last paragraph mainly talks about ____________________.A.the reason why housewives like dried foodB.the general convenience of dried foodC.the methods of storing foodD.the advantages of dried, canned and frozen food (D)Nate suffered a hard blow when he lost his job.His boss had spoken rudely, “Your services are no longer needed.〞 Nate left the building filled with despair.By the time he reached home, he was in a deep depression.When he entered his house, he blurted out to his wife Sophia, “I lost my job.I am a complete, utter failure.〞 A tense silence followed.Then a smile crept across Sophia’s face.“What great news!〞she responded.“Now you can write the book you have always wanted to write.〞“But I have no job and no prospect of a job,〞 YC he objected, completely without hope.“If I struggle to be an author, then what will we live on? Where will the money come from?〞 Sophia took her husband by the hand and led him to the kitchen.Opening a drawer, she took out a box that was full of cash.“Where on earth did you get this?〞 Nate gasped.“To whom does it belong?〞“It’s ours!〞 Sophia replied.“I always knew that one day you would become a great writer if only you were given the chance.From the money you gave me for housekeeping every week, I have saved as much asI could so you would have your chance.Now there is enough to last usa whole year.〞What a surprise! What encouragement! What a wife! The unemployed husband did concentrate on writing that year, and the novel he wrotebecame a literary masterpiece.The book is The Scarlet Letter.Sophia had an even greater achievement, and she turned Nathaniel Hawthorne from a poor clerk into a world famous master.68.Which of the following can be inferred from the first paragraph?A.Sophia was very disappointed to hear the newsB.Nate was too sad to speak any moreC.Sophia was thinking of how to encourage NateD.Neither husband nor wife had any idea what to do 69.Sophia saved money because _______________________.A.she knew her husband would lose his job one dayB.she knew their life would be in difficultyC.she was very careful with moneyD.she was trying to help her husband in every possible way70.From the passage we can know that Sophia was__________________________.A.kind and brave B.careful and encouragingC.friendly and warm-hearted D.honest and determined 71.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Sophia’s Achievement B.A Great Writer’s Struggle to SuccessC.Great Encouragement in Hard Times D.Failure is the Mother of Success(E)BRITAIN is a popular tourist place.But tours of the country have pros and cons.GOOD NEWSFree museums.No charge for outstanding collections of art and antiquities.Pop music.Britain is the only country to rival (与…匹敌) the US on this score.Black cabs.London taxi drivers know where they are going even if there are never enough of them at weekends or night.Choice of food.Visitors can find everything from Ethiopian to Swedish restaurants.Fashion.Not only do fashion junkies love deeply and respect highly brand names such as Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen; street styles are justly loved, too.BAD NEWSPoor service.“It’s part of the image of the place.People can dine out on the rudeness they have experienced,〞 says Professor Tony Seaton, of Luton University’s International Tourism Research Center.Poor public transport.Trains and buses are promised to defeat thekeenest tourists, although the over crowded London tube is inexplicably (难以理解的) popular.Lack of languages.Speaking slowly and clearly may not get many foreign visitors very far, even in the tourist traps (圈套).Rain.Still in the number one complaint.No air-conditioning.So that even splendidly hot summers become as unbearable as the downpours.Overpriced hotels.The only European country with a higher rate of tax on hotel rooms is Denmark.Licensing hours.Alcohol (酒) is in short supply after 11 pm even in “24-hour cities〞.72.What do tourists complain most?A.Poor service.B.Poor public transport.C.Rain D.Overpriced hotels.73.What do we learn about pop music in Britain and the US through this passage?A.Pop music in Britain is better than that in the US.B.Pop music in Britain is as good as that in the US.C.Pop music in Britain is worse than that in the US.D.Pop music in Britain is quite different from that in the US.74.When is alcohol not able to get?A.At 12: 00 pm B.At 10: 00 pmC.At 11: 00 pm D.At 9: 00 pm 75.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.You have to pay to visit the museums.B.It’s very cheap to travel by taxi there.C.You cannot find Chinese food there.D.The public transport is poor there.参考答案56—60DACBC 61—65BACBC 66—70CBCDB 71—75ACBAD。

AMy six—year-old granddaughter stares at me as if she is seeing me for the first time.“Grandma, you are an antique,” she says.“You a re old.Antiques are old.You are my antique.”I am not satisfied to let the matter rest there.I explain,“An antique is not only just old; it’s an object existing since or belonging to earlier times such as a work of art or a piece of furniture.Antiques are valuable.”We look around the house for antiques.There is a large desk that was handed down from an aunt to our family.“It’s very old,” I tell Jenny.“I try to keep it polished, and I show it off whenever I can.You do that with antiques.” When Jen ny gets older and understands such things, I might also tell her that whenever I look at the desk or touch it, I am reminded of the aunt who was dear to me and gave me the desk as a gift.I see her face again,though she is no longer with us.I remember myself as a little girl standing against this antique,listening to one of her stories.Our tour of antiques continues.There is a picture on the wall purchased at a yard sale.It is dated 1867,and it is not in very good condition.There is a vase on the floor.I’m not certain where it came from, but I didn’t buy it new.And then there is an old—style bed,sent to me forty years ago form an uncle who slept in it for fifty years.“The one thing about antiques,” I explain to Jenny,“is that they usually have a story."For a moment Jenny looks thoughtful.“I don’t have any antiques but you,” she says.Then her face brightens.“Could I take you to school for our antiques show?"“Only of I fit into your backpack,” I answer.And then her antique lifts her up and gives her a big hug that will last through the years.56.The author shows Jenny many antiques to ________.A.let her learn to value thingsB.tell her the stories behind themC.show her the meaning of the word “antique”D.help her know more about the family's past57.What do the picture and the vase have in common?A.Both came from the author's uncle.B.Both are still in good condition.C.Both were received as a gift.D.Both were bought old.58.It can be inferred from the text that ______.A.Jenny loves the author very muchB.the author agrees to Jenny's requestC.Jenny doesn’t like the author's antiquesD.the author’s explanation confuses Jenny59.What would be the best title for the text?A.Jenny’s antique B.A tour of antiques C.My love of antiques D.Stories behind my antiquesBThe Canada’s Most Interesting Towns Contest is started by Reader's Digest Association (Canada) and is open to all Canadians.All entries (参赛作品) must be submitted by December 18,2012.Entry requirementsParticipants must submit a story in English or in French and one photo that tell why their town is the most interesting town in Canada.The story must not be over 250 words and the photograph must not be over 2M B.The story is a must but the photo is optional.Submission will require your full name and the name of the city you are recommending.You must write clearly which of the following categories you are covering:Best Destination;Greenest; Healthiest;Best Cuisine;Most Community Spirit;Most Artistic.VotingSubmissions will be voted by people entering the contest.During theVoting Period anyone may vote for their favorite submission by clicking the vote button online.Each person may vote for as many submissions as they wish in any given day.The Voting Period begins on September 18,2012 and ends on December 18,2012.You may vote for your own submission.Prize and awardsAt the end of the Voting Period, the top 20 entries will be judged by a group of judges.The entry with the highest score from the judges will be the Grand Prize winner,who will receive a $5,000.00 cheque.And the city featured in the Grand Prize winner’s entry will be awarded a prize as well, a $5,000.00 cheque.The entries with the next seven highest judges’scores will be the seven Runners Up (亚军) each deserving a $1,000.00 cheque.On January 17,2013 at our Montreal office,the prizes will be awarded to winners.60.The Canada’s Most Interesting Towns Contest____.A.lasts one month B.is a writing contest C.includes many categories D.allows anyone to take part61.It can be learned that a participant____.A.must submit a photograph B.can vote for his own submissionC.must write the story in English D.can only vote for one submission62.The total prize money for this contest is worth____.A.$6,000.00 B.$11,000.00C.$12,000.00 D.$17,000.00CEvery so often,birds, just like humans, do what it takes to feel really, really good.The bird version is to sit on an anthill(蚁穴)so that hundreds of ants climb all over their bodies,or even better,some birds pick up mouthfuls of pressed ants and rub themselves all over.Afterwards,the birds either eat the ants or set them free.Scientists call this “anting.” It’s a common bird practice, and is especially done by the smarter birds.Ravens do it.Magpies do it.However,birds aren't the only animals that use anting —-- squirrels,cats,and hedgehogs have all been observed doing the same sort of thing!Why birds “ant”is something of a mystery, but one thought is acceptable.Ants have defensive secretions(分泌物),chemical weapons they use to fight off other insects and bacteria.So pressed ants help the birds drive the insects away.Similarly, if you cover your body with them,you can move through the forest without worrying about being bitten by insects.Plus, ants are cheap.They are around.However,we have a better explanation.Birds “ant" a lot in spring and summer.For ma ny birds, that’s the season for birds to change feathers.So maybe ant secretions are like bath oil;they comfort the skin during feather replacement. A British scientist once declared “the purpose of anting the stimulation(刺激)and comfort of the body,”andthat the general effect “is similar to that gained by man from the use of outside stimulants, and perhaps also smoking.”And like cigarettes,anting can become a habit.Another study compares anting to “the human habits of smoking and drug taking,” and says,“it is enjoyed for the feeling of excitement it results in.So once experienced,it is difficult to stop.” That’s why you often see mother birds shouting at their babies who come near their first anthill.“Stay away from there, child… Don’t touch those ants!” they cry.I don't speak Raven.Or Magpie.But I have been a parent.So some things I know.63.The practice of anting _______.A.is unique to birds B.is a rare phenomenon C.makes birds feel comfortableD.provides a main food source for birds64.Some birds ant because ant’s secretions ______.A.prevent them from being ill B.have a smell that they favorC.can remove unwanted insects D.help them smooth their feathers65.It is implied in the text that _______.A.only adult birds use antingB.the author knows a lot about birdsC.birds can become addicted to antingD.too much anting does harm to birds' health66.The text is most probably taken from a ______.A.popular science magazine B.short—story collection C.research paper D.personal diaryDMany parents try hard to protect their kids from TV and Internet advertising.But how can you protect a child from a large fast—food ad painted on her school locker(衣物柜)?Or a toy ad on the side of his school bus?As school budgets get smaller,a growing number of schools in the US are selling advertising space on lockers and buses and in gyms and cafeterias.It is an easy way for schools to make money.And ads may provide relief for parents exhausted by making cash donations to support schools.While parents can always turn off the television or the computer,they can’t keep advertising out of schools.This isn't the first time the issue has come up.For example,a news program for teens has been criticized for including ads in its 12-minute classroom broadcasts.And parents’ groups successfully fought a plan by a company called Bus Radio to put music and ads into school buses.But now things are different.Just last month, Los Angeles approved a plan to allow companies to advertise in the district's schools.Officials say the plan could provide as much as $18 million for the schools.In St.Francis, Minn.,school recently agreed to cover 10%to 15% of their lockers with ads.Edward Saxton, a teacher in the school,says,“So far,parents are accepting this as a way to bring in needed money.The money pays for programs like arts, sports, and music.Parents don't like to see programs getting cut.Neither do I.Besides, schools are thinking about the effects on kids all the time.”However, Susan Linn, an educational expert,says, “Kids have already seen enough ads on TV,in magazines and on products they use daily.School is no place for advertisements at all.”Readers,what about you? Would you rather help run yet another school fundraiser,or expose your child to ads on lockers and buses?Is keeping ads out of schools worth raising taxes,or increasing your own cash support for schools through donations?67.Schools allow ads into schools to _____.A.reduce parents' burdens B.solve their financial problemsC.offer kids a wide choice of goodsD.improve their students' living conditions68.Edward Saxton holds the view that _______.A.schools choose ads carefullyB.ads in schools should not be too muchC.schools should be a place free from adsD.in—school ads do no harm to young kids69.What does the text mainly talk about?A.The bad effects of ads on kids.B.Efforts to stop in-school advertising.C.Whether ads should be allowed in schools.D.Whether parents should run fundraisers for schools.70.Who are the intended readers of the text?A.Parents.B.Teachers.C.Educators.D.Businessmen.第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
