在明白题意和文章的基础上仔细阅读后面的题目要求,根据实际情况去完成所要求的任务。
具体答题策略如下:1.认真审题,读懂题意由于目要求形式多样,在同一篇阅读材料中会要求完成不同的任务,因此解题前要先明确任务,做到心中有数。
2.快读阅读,掌握大意在做影时要快速扫视一下文章的大意,然后结合前面的题目的要求,大致明白所要完成的任务。
3.细读题目,完成任务在明白题意和文章意思的基础上,仔细阅读后面的题目要求,在原文中找出问题题干所包括的信部分,这样就可以快速准确地抓住有效信思,确保答题的佳确性。

Sometimes peo ple will say bad words about your work. You can’t be angry with these people. You have to try to take no notice of them and keep working.You have to be good at talking to people too.

It can fly at a speed of about 200 miles per hour. You might think a bird that could fly so fast would be safe from most types of danger. Unfortunately, that is not true. By the 1970s, they had already been endangered. What was causing the number of falcons to drop so quickly?In America, a pesticide, a chemical, called DDT was harming the falcon eggs. Luckily, DDT is no longer used. The number of falcons is rising now.One unusual thing about falcons is that they like to make their nests (巢) in high places. In nature, they often nest on mountaintops and on the sides of cliffs (悬崖). Falcons have also got used to life in cities. They nest on tall buildings and bridges in cities. The height of these nests is from 50 to 200 feet in the air.They also like to return to the same nesting place every year. Both the mother and father falcons help to raise the babies. The mother stays more time in the nest. The father hunts and brings back food for her and the babies.Many people all around the country work very hard to help falcons live to adulthood. There are even video cameras fixed up in many places. This way, people can make sure the birds and their eggs stay protected.

New research now suggests that has already happened over the past years.A study coming out in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science found that in most poor countries, higher temperatures are more than 90% likely to have resulted in a fall in economic output(经济产量), compared to a world without global(全球的)warming. The influence has been less big in richer countries—with some even benefiting(获益)from higher temperatures.“We’re not saying that global warming created inequality(不公平),” says Noah S. Diffenbaugh, the writer of the study and a professor at Stanford University who studies climate change. But “global warming has slowed down the improvement”. The poore st countries are facing the worst influence of rising temperatures—for which they are least responsible, he adds.The new study builds on past research. A 2015 study in the journal Nature predicted that the average income(平均收入))in the poorest countries will be 25% lower by 2100 compared to aworld without warming, while some of the richest countries—like the USA—could experience an increase in income. And a report from IPCC, the UN’s climate science body, showed that if global temperatures rise more than 1.5℃ by the end of the century, poor countries will likely face very serious challenges, including the disappearance of whole communities and millions of early deaths. “They will suffer the most, as they are already,” said Mary Robinson, who used to be a UN Special Envoy on Climate Change and a president of Ireland.The influence is greater elsewhere, especially in Sub-Saharan, African countries including Sudan, Burkina Faso and Niger, where climate change has driven the average income more than 20% lower. “There are a number of ways by which temperature influences economic activities,” says Diffenbaugh What’s clear is that, for poor countries, the news is all bad.24.According to the text, warmer temperatures ________.A.are mainly caused by poor countries B.may bring advantages to rich countries C.had no influence on the world before D.can improve the poorest people’s health 25.What does “suffer” underlined in Paragraph 4 most probably mean in Chinese?A.供应B.犹豫C.遭受D.谋利26.Which of the following will face great economic problems caused by climate change? A.The UN. B.The USA.C.Ireland. D.Burkina Faso. 27.What is the main idea of the text?A.Climate change will make poor countries poorer.B.We must take action to deal with climate change.C.Climate change can cause millions of early deaths.D.People make good predictions about climate change.28.From which is the text most probably taken?A.A geography textbook. B.A health magazine.C.A research paper. D.A storybook.Passage 7Christmas was coming. There was a man in rags (衣衫褴褛) walking in a hurry on the road. You might think he was a beggar (乞讨者), but actually he was an artist. His name was Vincent Willem Van Gogh. With a painting he had just finished, the poor Vincent entered a painting store.“Can you buy this painting to help me pay the rent (房租)?” Vincent asked in a low voice. “I don’t really like your painting, but it is said that you are hard-working and I want to help you, Here is five francs (法郎),” the storekeeper answered.Although it was only five francs, Vincent was very happy. He took the money and said thanks, thinking that he could buy some food and pay the rent.Near his home, Vincent saw a little girl in old clothes standing in the snow.The girl smiled sadly at the artist asking for some help. Clearly, the girl was hungry and cold.“Poor child! I should help her,” he thought.Vincent put the five francs into the girl’s hands, completely forgetting that he still needed money to pay the rent. Before the girl said thanks to him, Vincent had hurried away with his empty stomach.29.The story happened in ________.A.spring B.summer C.autumn D.winter 30.Vincent Willem Van Gogh was a(n) ________.A.beggar B.artist C.farmer D.storekeeper 31.The storekeeper gave Vincent five francs because ________.A.he thought Vincent was a beggar B.he liked Vincent’s painting very much C.he wanted to help the hardworking man D.he wanted to make friends with Vincent 32.What did Vincent do to help the poor girl?A.He painted a picture for her.

1. 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(选项中有两项为多余选项)。
The envelope(信封)is designed to protect letters. It is so common today that we pay little attention to it. 1 The history of the envelope may be much longer than you think.It’s believed the envelope first appeared in ancient China. It was used to protect royal messages. However, the early envelope was nothing like what we use today. 2 After the message was put into it, the envelope would be closed with more clay. To read the message, one had to break the “envelope”.3 It was also invented by the Chinese. However, at first, people used it only to send money to each other as gifts. The design of the earlypaper envelope was very simple, but it was made completely by hand. 4In the 19th century, printing methods improved greatly. The machine could produce about 12,500 envelopes every day. 5Today, e-mails have become more popular than handwritten letters. But billions of envelopes are used around the world every year. They are still part of modern life.A.It looked like a ball.B.So it was very expensive.C.And the design also became popular.D.Could it be used for sending messages?E.The first paper envelope appeared around 200 BC.F.With these technologies, the cost of envelopes went down.G.But did you know when and where the envelope first appeared?2. Teenage life ― better now, or in the past?Does this situation sound familiar (熟悉的)?Y ou are complaining (抱怨) to your parents about something. Maybe your computer isn’t powerful enough to play the latest games. 1 Then you hear ….“When I was your age, there weren’t any computers or video games. I didn’t get a bike until I was sixteen. And it was second-hand. 2 ”So is it really true that life is better for teenagers now? It is certainly true that many teenagers have got more things nowadays. 3 So parents have got more money to spend on each child. And many things are cheaper than they were when our parents were children.4 Forty years ago, no one could imagine a world with tiny computers and amazing smartphones. And now these things are necessary ― wecan’t imagine living without them!However, technology often means we spend more time at home. And often it’s just us, with our computer or television. Teenagers don’t do enough exercise. 5 And, although young people still get on well with their friends, some people think teenagers today don’t have so many social activities as they did in the past.What do you think? How is teenager life better these days?A.And it was too big for me.B.A typical (典型的) family is smaller now.C.Or your friends’ bikes are better than yours.D.So they aren’t as healthy as they were in the past.E.Technology is probably the greatest change in our life.F.You can make your own decisions.G.They have more time to do outdoor activities.3.

It always plays a necessary role in our childhood which is a traditional Chinese form of folk art, and it used hot, liquid sugar to create figures. This delicious snack was the most popular among the children in the past.In and around the southwestern part of China, one can often find folk artists producing sugar paintings with liquid sugar along the streets, in the parks and around the schools.The artists sit before a table on which there is a board in the middle. On the side of the table is another board painted with different kinds of pictures in a circle such as a dragon, bird, dog and so on.After paying about 5 jiao, or 1 to 2 yuan, the customers, usually kids, can choose one from the pictures for the sugar painting artist to make with sugar.Before painting, the painter cooks white sugar to get liquid sugar for sugar painting. Then, the liquid sugar falls down from a big spoon as a thin line onto the board and after a short while an “animal” appears. At last the painter puts a wooden stick on the painting and gives it to the customer. Most kids would be excited to see the sweet art shining in gold under the sun.As a special art for producing pictures of sugar, sugar painting is very different from common painting. First, since the hot liquid sugar could be hard if it cools, the painter has to produce his/her work very quickly. So the painter has to draw a continuous line into a picture of an animal. To learn the whole thing, the painter has to do some practice of common painting in the first place.6.The underlined word “liquid” in Paragraph 1 means “________” in Chinese.A.奶油的B.陈年的C.液体的D.固体的7.________ liked sugar painting most in the past.A.Teachers B.Artists C.Parents D.Children8.The last step in sugar painting is to ________.C.put a stick on the sugar painting D.draw an animal on the board9.Where is the material probably from?A.A cultural introduction.B.A weather report.C.A travel guide.D.A sugar advertisement.10.Which can be the best title for the passage?A.A Sweet Art—Sugar Painting B.How to Make Sugar PaintingsC.Customers’ Favorite Paintings D.An Art in the Southwest of China(2023·云南昆明·统考二模)Do you want to see the world?

Most adults in the area work in the city, leaving their children behind at home. The children could hardly meet their parents in a year.Several years ago, Kang Yu arrived at the village school as a teaching volunteer. He found these children didn’t know how to express their emotions (情绪) properly. To give an outlet (发泄途径) for their emotions, Kang began to teach them to write poetry (诗). At first, the children didn’t even know what poetry was. After a few months, more and more students fell in love with writing poems.Kang was surprised that when writing poetry, students were a little different. In the past, they liked making trouble in class. But gradually they became quiet in poetry class. In their poems, sometimes they wrote about loneliness and sadness when missing their parents. And sometimes they wrote happy memories around them. A boy who spent little time with his father handed in a poem: “Ten years later, I want to be a father like the sea, and I’ll let my children sit on my back, which is like a boat for them.” These young poets (诗人) became better at writing poems.Poetry cannot help children solve their problems in life, but at least students can take poetry writing as a way to express their emotions and see the beauty in life. “When children love life, it is possible for them to reduce pain or find new happiness,” said Kang.16.A lot of ________ are left behind at home in Mangshui village.A.workers B.adults C.children D.teachers17.Why did Kang Yu teach kids poetry writing?A.Because students knew much about poetry.B.Because students were good at writing poetry.C.Because students could express themselves well.D.Because students needed to express their emotions.18.Kang Y u felt ________ about the changes of the students.A.surprised B.worried C.angry D.sad19.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Students became noisy in the poetry class.C.Students only wrote about loneliness and sadness in their poems.D.Poetry is a good way to help children solve their problems in life.20.Which can be the best title of the passage?A.Young poets in a village B.Poems written by Kang YuC.The history of Chinese poetry D.Different ways to write a poem(2023·云南昆明·统考二模)To stay healthy, people often do exercise. But let us be honest: exercising daily can be difficult. Some people find it easier to exercise each day if they join in organized sports — sports managed by a school or community. Let’s take a look at two important advantages of organized sports.Taking part in sports makes it easier for your CVS—Cardiovascular System (心血管系统) to bring oxygen (氧气) to the whole body. Researchers find kids who take part in organized sports perform better on CVS tests. And better CVS can improve kids’ schoolwork performance and lead to a healthier adulthood and a longer lifetime.Organized sports are also good for your mind. First, the sports help you to have a better self-esteem (自尊). Higher self-esteem means you feel better about who you are and try harder to become a better self. You may be more likely (倾向于) to face problems bravely and take action to solve them. Second, researchers also find that kids in organized sports are more likely to ask their friends and family for help when they feel stressed. This can help reduce their stress and anxiety.Although organized sports are not the only way of exercise, they are fun to keep your body and mind healthy. Choose an organized sport you love so you can have fun and experience the advantages of exercise now and into the future.21.It’s ________ to exercise every day by joining in organized sports.A.more difficult B.more boring C.less difficult D.less boring22.Which of the following is NOT the advantage of having better CVS?A.Higher self-esteem.B.A longer lifetime.C.A healthier adulthood.D.Better schoolwork performance.23.Kids in organized sports ________.A.feel bad about themselves B.perform worse on CVS testsC.cannot solve problems bravely D.are more likely to ask others for help24.The underlined word “anxiety” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________” in Chinese.A.兴奋B.焦虑C.感激D.嫉妒A.The ways of exercise.B.The introduction of CVS.C.The advantages of organized sports.D.The importance of a healthy mind.(2023·云南昆明·统考二模)It was the final of the national high school basketball game. It was the first time in their history, a team from a small town faced last year’s best team. The players thought they couldn’t win and wanted to give up. Seeing this, the coach told them a story.Peter was a woodcutter. He was afraid he would fall ill and die. His wife told him that as long as his hands and feet were warm, he was not dead.One day, Peter went out to cut down trees. It was snowy and cold. After finishing his work, he noticed that his hands and feet were frozen. He thought he was dying, so he stopped working and lay down on the ground.After Peter had been lying for a while, some wolves came over. They ate all the food in Peter’s food bag. The wolves then noticed Peter lying quietly on the ground. They were getting near to Peter. Peter thought, “If I weren’t dead, I would kill you all.” When the wolves saw Peter doing nothing, they ate him.As the coach finished the story, the players talked about how silly Peter was. At the same time, they realized what their coach wanted them to understand: the opposite team was like the wolves, and they were like the woodcutter. They should fight till the end, whether they were “alive or dead”.26.The coach encouraged his players by ________.A.giving them advice B.sharing a story with themC.playing basketball with them D.cheering them on the court27.When did Peter’s story happen?A.In spring.B.In summer.C.In autumn.D.In winter.28.What do we know about Peter’s death?A.He died after a long illness.B.He froze to death because of the cold weather.C.He was eaten by wolves while lying on the ground.D.He died of hunger because the wolves ate all his food.29.The players thought Peter was ________.A.stupid B.poor C.honest D.lazy30.What did the players learn from the passage?A.Death is not the worst thing.B.Teamwork is very important.C.They shouldn’t give up without trying.D.There’s always someone better than them.(2023·云南昆明·统考二模)The Fuxing train has started running in southwest China’s Tibet along the Lhasa-Nyingchi (拉萨—林芝) Railway.The 435-kilometer railway links Lhasa and Nyingchi. It’s a great achievement in China, because it’s the first electrified (电气化的) railroad on the “Roof of the World”. It shortens the journey between Lhasa and Nyingchi from over five hours to about 3.5 hours.The new railway covers an area of 226,000 square kilometers. It goes through 47 tunnels (隧道) and crosses 121 bridges. The train has a top speed of 160 kilometers per hour. It is the fastest train on the high land, but it’s a bit slower than some other Fuxing trains in our country because of the special environment. The railway not only makes local people’s life easier, but also brings more tourists to the area.“The railway trip is so relaxing and fast. The new train has brought our family members closer than ever before,” said a teacher who lives in Nyingchi. She used to drive more than five hours from Nyingchi to Lhasa to visit her parents during the summer vacation.Besides carrying passengers, the railway also provides good chances for farmers to sell local products to more places.

Some fish live in the ocean. These are called saltwater fish. Some fish live in freshwater. Rivers, ponds and most lakes are freshwater.All fish are cold-blooded animals. This means that their body temperature changes with the temperature around them. They are as warm or as cool as the water they live in. But fish will get weak if the water becomes hotter or colder than they are used to. They will move to where the water is the just right temperature for them. Snakes and cocktails are reptiles (爬行动物). They are cold-blooded animals too. People, cows and seals are warm-blooded animals. Birds are warm-blooded animals, too. The body temperature of a warm-blooded animal doesn’t change with the temperature in the environment.Many fish have eyes on the sides of their heads and can see very well. They can see what is in front, behind, to the left, to the right, above and below-all at the same time! Fish sleep with their eyes open. Their eyes are kept clean and moist because of the water.Fish do not have outside ears like we do, but they can still hear sounds by feeling the vibrations (振动) in the water. The vibrations tell the fish if there is a motor boat passing or if there is a big hungry fish nearby looking for something to eat.36.Cold-blooded animals ________ in the environment.A.feel cold all the time B.don’t like hot temperatureC.change their body temperature D.don’t like moving around37.The underlined word “moist” in Paragraph 3 means “________” in Chinese.A.干燥的B.湿润的C.柔软的D.坚硬的38.In which part of a magazine may we read the passage?A.Travel.B.Nature.C.Sports.D.Culture.39.Which is TRUE according to the passage?A.Fish can’t hear any sound in the water.B.Fish sleep with their eyes closed all the time.C.If the water becomes hotter,the fish will die at once.D.Fish can see things in every direction at the same time.40.Which can be the best title for the passage?A.An Introduction to Fish B.Saltwater and FreshwaterC.Cold-blooded Animals D.The Body Temperature of Fish(2023·云南曲靖·统考二模)A livestreaming platform(直播平台)once tried to broadcast(播出)classroomstudents’ opinions.Student A: I agree with it. When I watched the videos, I saw some comments(评价)from adults like “I admire the way they focus on studying. I want to go back to my school time.” The livestreaming show reminds adults of their wonderful memories of school. It’s a good thing.Student B: I support the idea. Students’ parents can see what they are doing at school. It will help them know their children better. What’s more, I think if students know they are on a live show, they will behave themselves. Teachers will try to make their classes more interesting.Student C: In my opinion, it’s bad to show students’ performances in the classroom on the Internet. It’s a violation(侵犯)of privacy. Not only can the parents of these kids watch it on their computers or mobile phones, but also other people in society can watch it. It’s a safety threat(威胁), because bad people may make use of the videos illegally(非法地)and hurt these students.Student D: This act doesn’t respect students. Through the live broadcast, people across the country can see the students’ acts without those students even knowing about it. If it is an open class and the school has got the students’ permission, it will be fine.

Two years ago, my parents decided to move to the countryside. I was scared. How could I leave all my friends? How could I live somewhere with no cinema, with no parks, where the nearest shop was more than 3 kilometers away?But Mum and Dad didn’t listen to me. They were tired of the city life. Mum is a singer so she can live anywhere and Dad looks after me and my two younger brothers.

Do you think they are giving you too much help?Du Peng, 18, from Hebei Province, has a story to share. He said that while in middle school, his mother often encouraged him to go to English speaking competitions. To help her son win, Du’s mother once asked an English teacher to write the speech for his son. “Although I got good results at the contest, I didn’t feel proud,” Du said.Du is not the only one. Nearly 90 percent of Chinese parents said that they have helped their kids too much in school, according to a survey of 1,504 parents done by China Youth Daily. At the same time, 70 percent of parents agreed that doing too much for their children could lead to their children losing independence.Children also want to do things by themselves. “Doing things ourselves gives us a strong sense of achievement,” said Liu Jiawei, 13. “We will leave our parents one day. So it’s better to develop skills and live independently as early as possible.”Some, however, think parents have good reasons to help. Jiang Qi, 12, from Beijing, said that his parents would sometimes help him by making PPTs. “Our teachers have high expectations for us,” Jiang said. “If my parents didn’t help me while other students still got help from their parents, I would not do as well as others.”61.Why didn’t Du Peng feel proud after the competition?A.He didn’t get good results.B.His mother wrote the speech for him.C.He didn’t like English competitions.D.The speech was prepared by an English teacher. 62.What will happen if parents do too much for their children?A.Children will feel proud.B.Children will not be independent.C.Parents will leave their children.D.Parents will have a sense of achievement.63.Who thinks parents have good reasons to help?A.Du Peng.B.Liu Jiawei.C.Jiang Qi.D.Nobody.64.What does the underlined word “expectations” probably mean?A.期望B.专家C.接受D.反对65.Where can you probably read this passage?A.In a textbook.B.In a newspaper.C.In a storybook.D.In a speaking guide.(2023·云南·统考三模)ChatGPT, a smart AI tool, has swept the education world in the past months.

But now, a group of bicyclists are trying to get people out of their cars and on bikes.Devon Fitzgerald says he has to be careful when he rides his bike in the streets. “A lot of people are in a rush, and it's very difficult to keep careful, for they would rather care for their speed than your safety.” Although riding a bike to work can b e dangerous, he prefers it to a car. “It's much simpler than driving a car. For example, I don't have to worry about parking.”Roger Rosas drives to work. "You always have to make sure you look to the other side because someone would rush across by bike. Or you can easily get into an accident. "To make bicycling safer, some people who live and work near each other are riding to work together, which they call a "bike train".

Girls talking. Boys trying to kill each other.I took some paper and a pencil, picked a desk, and went to work. Minutes later, a girl came over and sat on top of my desk.“What're you doing?” she said.“Writing to 100,” I replied.“Is that you can do?”“No,” I said.Then I rose from my seat to get my pencil sharpener. I had no idea that when I stood, the desk would fall over and hurt her leg.Her name was Jane. From that day on--she was my best friend. Wherever we went--to school or church or basketball games, Jane saved me a seat or I saved one for her.Many years later, after college, I moved to California and married. Jane stayed in our hometown to be a social worker. We were friends for more than 50 years. After her death seven years ago, I still think of her often, especially at the start of the school year.TV ads try to tell us what children need for school—new shoes, clothes, backpacks. But really, children's needs are simple. Besides the basics—to be fed, cared for, and loved—they need the gift of friendship.For years, I feared how people saw me. But one day, I finally understood. I didn't need to be smart or pretty or popular. I just needed to be kind.My grandson Henry recently finished his preschool and received a prize for “Friendship”. Even an Olympic medal wouldn't make me prouder! I think children need to know that they are loved. They need to know that they have all they need and the best way to win friends is to be one.5.

My Best Friend JaneB. How to Choose FriendsC. My First Day at SchoolD. Friendship ValuesCThe winter of 1948 was very difficult for our family of eight living in Knoxvile, Tennessee. Unfortunately, Dad became ill and soon was out of a job. I was only 8 years old and my younger brother, Buddy was 7. After school we went to pick coal(煤) that fell from the coal train along the railroad near our home. When the train slowed down, we ran alongside it. After the train passed, we picked up the fallen coal.One day, the train stopped for a short time unusually. My brother and I were digging around in the snow when the train's fireman came to the window and shouted to us, “Why are you boys digging in the snow? Are you looking for gold?” he laughed.“No, sir,” I replied, “We are finding coal.”“Why doesn't your daddy buy coal? It's really dangerous here.”“Our daddy is very sick and we have no money to buy food and coal,” I answered.The fireman turned and went inside. After a moment, he shouted again. “Hey! Bring that coal bucket(桶子) here. I got something for you.” Then the fireman filled our bucket with clean coal. We were happy with his gift, and we knew we could go home early that day.He smiled the kindest and warmest smile I had ever seen. “You two boys come here the day after tomorrow and I'll throw off some coal.”Two days later, Buddy and I stood by the railroads as the train slowed down. The fireman waved to us, then disappeared. Suddenly, some coal and a piece of red cloth came out. In the red cloth were two pieces of bubble gum(泡泡糖) and a new one-dollar bill.All that winter, three days a week, we received a bucket of coal, a gift and, sometimes, money.I never knew the person's full name, but to our family, he was a guardian angel.9.

In exchange, they get some money or other computer time.Paying kids for housework is one of the most popular topics, especially at a time when everyone is more careful about money. Some parents think since adults are paid to do their jobs, we should pay kids for everyday housework.But some people don't think kids should get rewards(报酬) for doing housework. Susie Walton, an expert, believe that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return. “Running any kind of housework is a team effort,” Walton said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and families decide how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like what they want.”Other people believe that getting a reward encourages kids to do housework, and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to get money. There are also apps(程序) that gives kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed(兑现) either online or in the real world. “Our goal is to give kids lawful power so they can get rewards,” says Chris Bergman. “And kids need rewards to help encourage them. ”6. Which of the following housework is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1?A. Washing the dishes.B. Cooking meals.C. Folding the clothes.D. Making the bed.7.

Doing Housework Is Good for Children's StudyCLast summer I went to one of the world's most famous historical places, the Forbidden City in Beijng, China. It was the home of the emperors of the last two dynasties (朝代) in China, the Ming and Qing Dynasties.The Forbidden City was built in 1420. The palace has over 10,000 rooms. It was where the emperors dealt with the official business with their ministers.In Mandarin, The Forbidden City is called the Purple Forbidden City. However, the color of the palace itself is not purple. The color purple stands for power of the great emperors of China. It was so sacred(神圣的) that the commoners could not even dream of ever going in.The emperors also had some of the largest festival celebrations at the Forbidden City. During Chinese New Year, the emperor would invite all the members of his family and his officials to a banquet. The banquet had a hundred and eight Chinese dishes. It was such an expensive banquet that it could feed a commoner's family for three generations(代).Right now The Forbidden City is known as a historical site for tourists from all over the world. Everyone can go in there. It is a museum with priceless Chinese antiques (古董) and treasures in it.I really learned a lot about the Chinese culture and its history from this trip to The Forbidden City. It was like a dream come true to go on the trip and see the things that I have always wanted to see.11. How long is the history of the Forbidden City?A. About 600 years.B.

Not only is she a high school student, but she has also set up her own organization, Beary Merry Christmas. She volunteers(自愿)to serve poor kids and families in Orange Country in California, US.To remember her best friend who died of cancer nearly 10 years ago, Fredette decided to serve those in Orange Country who are less lucky than she is.She began with the simple idea of collecting donated(捐赠的)Build-A-Bears,the popular toy animal that is made by children themselves in the stores' workshops. Fredette then gave them as gifts to the homeless children in California during the holiday season.With donations at more than 100 bears a year, Fredette and volunteers host activities every year, where volunteers not only give out the bears, but also clothing, meals, and other things.Not wanting to limit(限制)the giving to just the holiday months, Fredette now hosts other activities for Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and Halloween, providing the chance for her volunteerteam to make a difference through the year.“I love making relationships with the people I serve,” Fredette said. “The thanks they have, hearing their stories and seeing how happy they are, it's so cool.”Future plans for Fredette include building a public food bank and providing aself-development class for students in her school who will soon attend college.Heading to college herself in the fall, Fredette is looking to stay local and continue to help out in her hometown. In f act, she was regarded as a “Dreamer & Doer” not long ago for her work in improving her community, along with 32 other high school students.4.

Improving community collegesCMore Chinese universities are opening their libraries to the public, allowing people to enjoy reading during normal time and the vacations.But for some students, including Wang Ling, 21, in Sun Yat-sen University, this practice has caused headaches. “Members of the public come to our libraries more for sightseeing than reading,” said Wang.“They somet imes even bring their kids along, and take photos as if it were a place of interest.”Wang has found it hard to get a seat during busy times. Being short of space is a common problem for university libraries in China.However, this is not the only reason why students dislike their libraries being open to members of the public. They fear that the quietness of the libraries will be influenced because of visitors' rude behavior.Chen Jie, 18, a student in Tongji University, is one who would be against opening to the public. “I have been to a public library before. People were chatting loudly or speaking on cell phone so you can hardly read,” Chen said. She notices teachers doing serious reading and feels their concentration(专注)has influenced her. “If too many s trangers stay here, the whole library will be a noisy place and it's difficult for us to study quietly,” she said.Will there be alternative(可替代的)ways to share those libraries? Some experts consider that university libraries can prevent the public from ent ering certain areas. “We might keep magazines for academic research only for teachers and students,” said Zhu Lina, library director in Jinan University.Working together with the community library is another solution. “It's possible that a member of the public can order a book in our library over the Internet,” Ge Jianxiong, the library director in Fudan University said. “We'll send it to a public libraries close to their home.”8. We can see from the passage that Wang Ling .A. hates to study in the libraryB. prefers sightseeing to readingC. feels good to play with kidsD. is a university student aged 219. In Chen Jie's opinion, visitors to university libraries may .A. take up too much spaceB. break the peace thereC. make teachers relaxedD. get students to read more10. The writer mentions two libraries directors' words to help explain how to .A. manage libraries onlineB. keep the public politeC. share university librariesD. do scientific research11. Where is the passage most probably taken from?A. A newspaper.B. A library guide.C. A story book.D. A notice board.DHave you ever seen a car without a driver? It sounds crazy, but these computer-driven driverless cars will soon be filling roads near you. Companies like Google and Tesla have been designing and testing these cars, and the technology is there.So how? The cars have sensors(感应器)all around which can find other cars and objects in the road. Road signs are read by cameras, and satellite navigation systems(卫星导航系统)are used so the car knows how to get where you want to go. All you have to do is type in the address! Finally, a central computer system takes in all the information that it receives from the sensors and cameras and works out when to speed up, stop and turn.Sound like your idea of heaven(天堂)? Sitting back, looking out of the windows and even watching a film or reading a book while ‘driving' would be possible with this new technology. You wouldn't have to worry about remembering directions to where you're going. In addition, computers would also drive more safely than people — they would obey the rules and have quicker action times when in dangerous situations.However, there are many drawbacks of driverless cars. Computers would have difficulties making ethical(道德的)decisions: if a child ran into the road, would the computer choose to hit the child or turn suddenly and potentially kill the car's passengers? Moreover, I personally find driving fun –I'd miss never driving a car myself. There would also be many other decisions to be made –should children, or drunk people, be allowed in a driverless car by themselves? Or would there need to be a person with a driving license in the car at all times?I'm not certain I'd want a driverless car – but it's only a matter of time before they'll become more affordable and popular on our roads.12. When using a driverless car, you need only .A. read the road signs carefullyB. check the camerasC. put the address into the computerD. remember the directions13. The third paragraph mainly tells us about the of driverless cars.A. instructionsB. standardsC. advantagesD. tests14. The underlined word “potentially” in Paragraph 4 means ““.A. possiblyB. successfullyC. especiallyD. naturally15. What's the writer's opinion about future driverless cars?A.

A group of children were waiting for us. A boy walked toward me. He held my hands and pulled me to the ground. I kissed the earth and tasted nature.I could not understand what he was doing at first, then I was very angry. Though I was very angry, I controlled my anger.A teacher stopped this awkward(尴尬的)silence when she shouted at t he boy. “What are you doing right here, right now?” she said. “You will never see your mom again if you keep doing this. Now, say sorry!” “Sorry,” he cried fearfully and nervously. I said nothing, but I realized something about t his child. After lunch I asked the teacher for information about the child's parents.She said that the child was very different from other students because of an illness.
