AYou probably know who Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton is, but you may not have heard of Margaret Munnerlyn Mitchell if you are not interested in foreign literature. Of the outstanding ladi es listed below, who is your favorite?Jane Austen (16 December, 1775-18 July, 1817)Jane Austen, a famous English writer, was born at Steventon, Hampshire. She began writing early in life, although the preju dices (偏见) of her times forced her to have her books published anony mously (匿名).She wrote many books of romantic fiction about the gentry (贵族). Her works made her one of the great masters of the Engli sh novel. Only four of her novels were printed while she was alive. They were Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Preju dice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814) and (1816).Charlotte Bronte (21 April, 1816-31 March, 1855)She first published her works, including Jane Eyre, under the f alse name of Currer Bell. Her first novel, The Professor, was r ejected by many publishers. It was not printed until 1857. She is famous for her novel Jane Eyre (1847), which was very po pular when it was printed. Jane Eyre was a strongstory of a plain, brave, clever woman struggling with her pass ions, reasons, and social condition.Margaret Munnerlyn Mitchell (8 November, 1900-16 August, 1949)She was an American author and journalist, a lifelong resident and native of Atlanta, Georgia. One novel by Mitchell was pu blished during her lifetime, the American Civil-War-Era novel, Gone with the wind, for which she won the National Book Award for Most Distinguished Novel of 1936 and the Pu litzer Prize for Fiction in 1937. In more recent years, a collecti on of Mi tchell’s girlhood writings and a novel she wrote as a te enager, Lost Laysen, have been published. A collection of arti cles written by Mitchell for The Atlanta Journal was republished in book form.21. Why did Jane Austen publish her books with a false name?A. She lacked confidence.B. She was not well educated.C. Women were discriminated.D. Women were well protected.22. Which novel was set in the background of war?A. Sense and Sensibility.B. Gone with the Wind.C. Lost Laysen.D. The Professor.23. Who won the most prizes for her works?A. Margaret Munnerlyn Mitchell.B. Charlotte Bronte.C. Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton.D. Jane Austen.24. What can we infer about the women mentioned in the text ?A. They were all fond of poetry.B. They all died in their forties.C. Their works were once rejected.D. They are famous for their great works.BA year after graduation, I was offered a position teaching a wri ting class. Teaching was a profession I had never seriously co nsidered, though several of my stories had been published. I accepted the job without hesitation, as it would allow me to w ear a tie and go by the name of Mr. Davis. My father went by t he same name, and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused. “Wait a minute,” someone might say, “are you talking about Mr. Davis the retired man, or Mr. Davis the resp ectable scholar?”The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given t wo weeks to prepare, a period I spent searching for briefcase and standing before my full-length mirror, repeating the words, “Hello, class. I’m Mr. Davis .” Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice. Someti mes I would sound experienced. But when the day eventually came, my nerves kicked in and the true Mr. Davis was there. I sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a 12-year-old boy.I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the sh ape of maple leaves. I had cut them myself out of orange con struction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I hand ed out the cards, and the students wrote down their names an d fastened them to their breast pockets as I required.“All right then,’’ I said. “Okay, here we go.” Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never thought beyond this m oment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, offering their thoughts and opinions on the events of t he day. I had imagined that I would sit at the edge of the desk , overlooking a forest of hands. Every student would shout. “C alm down, you’ll all get your turn. One at a time, one at a time!”A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opinion s, I asked the students to pull out their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.25. The author took the job to teach writing because .A. he wanted to be respectedB. he had written some storiesC. he wanted to please his fatherD. he had dreamed of being a teacher26. What can we learn a bout the author from Paragraph 2?A. He would be aggressive in his first class.B. He was well-prepared for his first class.C. He waited long for the arrival of his first class.D. He got nervous upon the arrival of his first class.27. Before he started his class, the author asked the studentsto .A. cut some cards out of the construction paperB. write dow n their names on the paper cardsC. cut maple leaves out of the construction paperD. write down their suggestions on the paper cards28. What did the students do when the author started his clas s?A. They began to talk.B. They raised their hands.C. They kept silent.D. They shouted to be heard.CYou know the feeling-you have left your phone at home and feel anxious, as if you have lost your connection to the world. “Nomophobia” (无手机恐惧症) affects teenagers and adults alike. You can even do an on line test to see if you have it. Last week, researchers from Hong Kong warned that nomophobia is inf ecting everyone. Their study found that people who use their phones to store, share and access personal memories suffer most. When users were asked to describe how they felt about their phones, words such as “hurt” (neck pain was often repor ted) and “alone” predicted higher levels of nomophobia.“The findings of our study suggest that users regard smartpho nes as their extended selves and get attached to the devices,” said Dr. Kim Ki Joon. “People experience feelings of anxiety and unpleasantness when separated from their phones.” Mea nwhile, an American study shows that smartphone separation can lead to an increase in heart rate and blood pressure.So can being without your phone really give you separation a nxiety? Professor Mark Griffiths, psychologist and director of t he International Gaming Research Unit at Nottingham Trent U niversity, says it is what is on the phone that counts-the social networking that creates Fomo (fear of missing out).“We are talking about an internet-connected device that allows people to deal with lots of aspec ts of their lives,” says Griffiths. “You would have to surgically r emove a phone from a teenager because their whole life is ro oted in this device.”Griffiths thinks attachment theory, where we develop emotion al dependency on the phone because it holds details of our liv es, is a small part of nomophobia. For “screenagers”, it is Fo mo that creates the most separation anxiety. If they can’t see what’s happening on Snapchat or Instagram, they become pa nic-stricken about not knowing what’s going on socially. “But theyadapt very quickly if you take them on holiday and there’s no i nternet,” says Griffiths.29. Which of the following may Dr. Kim Ki Joon agree with?A. We waste too much time on phones.B. Phones have beco me part of some users.C. Addiction to phones makes memories suffer. D. Phones and blood pressure are closely linked.30. According to Giffiths, we get nomophobia because .A. we are accustomed to having a phone on usB. we need our phones to help us store informationC. we worry we may miss out what our friends are doingD. we fear without phones we will run into a lot of trouble31. Where can you probably find the above passage?A. In a research report.B. In a fashion brochure.C. In a science textbook.D. In a popular science magazine.DUS scientists say they have poured cold water on the theory t hat washing hands with hot water kills more germs (细菌) than unheated water. The small study of 20 people found using water at 15C (59F) left hands as clean as water heatedto 38C (100F).National Health Service (NHS) recommends that people wash their hands in either cold or warm water. In this study, scienti sts at Rutgers University-New Brunswick wanted to find out if popular assumptions abo ut the benefits of warm or hot water and official guidance on h ot water —given to the food industry in the US - held true. They asked 20 people to wash their hands 20 times each with water that wa s 15C (59F), 26C (79F) or 38 degrees (100F). Volunteers wer e also asked to experiment with varying amounts of soap. Bef ore they started the tests, their hands were covered in harmle ss bugs. Researchers say there was no difference in the amo unt of bugs removed as the temperature of the water or the a mount of soap changed.Prof Donald Schaffner said: “People need to feel comfortable when they are washing their hands but as far as effectiveness goes, this study shows us that the temperature of the water u sed did not matter.”However, the researchers accept their study is small and say more extensive work is needed to determine the best ways to remove harmful bacteria.In the UK, NHS experts say people can use cold or hot waterto wash their hands. They say hands should be washed for at least 20 seconds and stress the importance of using enough s oap to cover the whole surface of the hands. Their guidance f ocuses on rubbing hands together in various .ways to make s ure each surface of each hand is clean.32. What does the underlined phrase “poured cold water” in P aragraph 1 probably mean?A. Proved.B. Created.C. Contradicted.D. Accepted.33. After they washed their hands with either hot or cold water , .A. volunteers nearly had the same amount of germ removedB. volunteers all talked about American food industryC. volunteers still had much germ on their handsD. volunteers all didn’t feel very comfortable34. How do researchers feel about their study?A. It is popular.B. It is incomplete.C. It is convincing.D. It is abstract .35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Using Cold Water Instead of Hot WaterB. How to Use C old Water to Wash HandsC. It Is Better to Wash Hands in Cold WaterD. Washing Han ds in Cold Water as Good as in Hot Water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。

But there are hundreds of microorganisms in the mouths and your toothbrush probably won’t make you sick unless there is an unhealthy balance of bacteria. Our immune system can usually take care of bacterial invaders. However, if others u se your toothbrush, or you use someone else’s, bacteria can be spread.They have also found the toothbrush holders are the third-most dirty household items , thus advocating cleaning the toothbrush holder regularly.The storage of your toothbrush in your bathroom is also important. Here are some storage tips from the researchers to keep your toothbrush as healthy as possible:Put your toothbrush as far away as possible from the toilet flushing.Let your toothbrush dry thoroughly between brushings.Don’t use toothbrush covers, which can create a perfect breeding ground for bacteria.Keep your toothbrush upright in a holder rather than lying down.Keep toothbrushes separate. If toothbrushes touch, they can exchange and spread bacteria.There are products available that claim to sanitize(消毒)your toothbrush. While some of these products do kill some bacteria, there is no evidence that using them will reduce your risk of illness, according to the researchers.They recommend replacing your toothbrush every three to four months or more often if you are sick or if you have a weakened immune system. Children’s toothbrushes may need to be replaced more often than adult brushes.(1)Who will probably find this text helpful?A . People concerning their heathB . People decorating their houseC . People caring about their dietsD . People carrying out experiments (2)What can we infer from the text?A . Products of sanitizing the tooth brush are of no use at all.B . Adults need to replace toothbrushes more often than children.C . Sharing your toothbrush with others may be harmful to your health.D . Your toothbrush will probably make you sick if there is a healthy balance of bacteria.(3)What are people advised to do in the text?A . Clean the toothbrush holder regularly.B . Keep the toothbrush covered after the use.C . Keep the toothbrush lying down after using it.D . Have the toothbrush dry partly between brushings.(4)Which might be the best title for the text?A . How to Replace Your Toothbrush Economically?B . How to Clean Your Toothbrush Correctly?C . How to Store Your Toothbrush Healthily?D . How to Use Your Toothbrush Properly?3. 阅读理解On a cold morning in 2015, five-year-old Lucas stood on the bank of Blue Star River, hugging a dead salmon(鲑鱼)against his thick yellow coat. He looked up at his father, Steve, who nodded encouragingly. “Go ahead,” he said. “Put it in.” The young boy dragged his feet forward and held the fish as far as he could into the shallow water. “It’s floating!” Lucas yelled, delighted. For a mom ent, it’s almost as if the handsome salmon could come back to life.Lucas’ salmon was just one of 100 or so dead bodies that will land in Blue Star River in a half-hour activity this morning, delivered by dozens of volunteers. None of the salmon will rise from the dead, but Andy, president of the Fish Rescue Society, who has promoted this gathering, is carrying out the resurrection (复活)project of salmon.Andy led the group’s campaign to recover this urban waterway’s salmon population. “The Fish Rescue Society started exploring the possibility of recovering the salmon in the river in the mid-1990s, and they also focused on river recovery in cities worldwide.”Andy and his group are devoted to giving the river a full make-over. This monumental repair job, supported by approximately $95,000 of funding from the Pacific Salmon Foundation over the past 15 years, has involved recovering the river-habitat of salmon and preventing it from wearing away.

She tripped upon men’s clothing “hidden” around her house.The 38-year-old woman says, at the beginning, she was confused to see quite a few photographs in her phone that she did not remember taking. She was the subject but something was different. Her friends started falling away and she did not know why. Her long-term relationship with her boyfriend also ended suddenly.Now she knows those men’s clothing belonged to one of her “alternatives” and the same person was responsible for her closest friends’ leaving her.In an intervie w, Emily said she was not allowed to name “the man” who takes over her body. She was not allowed to name any of her six alternative persons. She said, “I am aware that they are not real people, not physical people. They exist in an imaginative world. However, all those alternatives should be treated with dignity and respect.”Emily has what’s call ed Dissociative Identity Disorder(DID分离性身份识别障碍), a condition characterized by the presence of two or more split personalities that have power over a person’s behaviour.Her condition resulted from a car accident five years ago. It was August, 2012, when her vehicle broke down on the side of the road. A speeding driver crashed into her car. She wasn’t physically injured but she suffered a mental condition caused by severe brain injury. Shortly after that, she discovered she wasn’t alone inside her head. Swi tching between personalities happens frequently but there is no real pattern. It can be weeks between incidents then, for whatever reason, it happens more regularly.One of her alternatives is a smoker, even though she is not. Upon waking, she says there are messages in her head that she is a smoker. She describes her lifestyle as “isolated”.“People consider DID as tragedy” she says, “I just want to make an effort to tell others that we deserve respect, that we are legally accepted members of society, an d we hope to live a normal life. I’m not stupid, I’m not spiting or running around people with knives. I have a mental problem but try to live a normal life. I completed a course at Harvard, I wrote a book, I’mable to communicate well. I mother my two kid s well. I’m not on welfare.”Actually, she volunteers for an organization helping children. She also spends time speaking out about her condition and has written a book on the subject, hoping to help others who are experiencing the same trouble.(1)Why di d Emily’s boyfriend break up with her?A . Because all his friends didn’t like her.B . Because she remained a heavy smoker.C . Because she had changeable characters inside her.D . Because she was physically disabled in a car accident.(2)What does Emily think of her personalities inside her?A . They also deserve respect.B . They are gifts given by God.C . They are too strong to resist.D . They make her life interesting.(3)What can we know about Emily from the passage?A . Her mental illness prevented her from attending Harvard.B . She can control her regularly changing personalities.C . Her physical injury from a car accident caused DID.D . She tries to live a positive life and help others.(4)What’s the main idea of the text?A . It intended to explain what a DID is all about in detail.B . It introduced a woman suffering DID after a car accident.C . It reported a car accident and its severe consequence.D . It described what a terrible life a lonely woman lived.二、任务型阅读5. 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空处的最佳选项。

Seven years ago,back in 2010,some reports covered a story that the world's longest railway tunnel was under construction in Switzerland.At that point it had already been under construction for over a decade.It had been voted to be built nearly a quarter of a century ago!The idea to build it could date back to nearly 70 years ago—about as old as some of your grandparents!Yesterday,it was finally ready!It's 35 miles long and runs 7,500 feet beneath the Swiss Alps,a famous mountain range in Switzerland.It even runs under an old tunnel that was there before.It took a total of 17 years to build at a cost of $12 billion.128 million tons of rock were dug.Two million truckloads of earth were removed!The tunnel connects northern and southern Europe.The opening of this runnel was such a big deal that the Germany's leader,Chancellor AngelaMerkel,France's president,Francois Hollande,and Italy's prime minister,Matteo Renzi,were an there to celebrate,as was Austria's chancellor Christian Kern.It's called the Gotthard Base Tunnel.Eventually,325 freight and passenger trains will go through the tunnel,relieving a lot of traffic on the roadways there and making it a more environmentally friendly option.The Gotthard Base Tunnel is a wonder of engineering!Make us want to visit it!1.

Many editors have a rule that they will not even read stories that are not formatted and presented as requested in their Submission(投稿)Guidelines.Even if this policy is not stated,it affects their decision-making.There are a few reasonable reasons.A good editor likes to read all stories for the first time in the same format (格式)as the publication standard.A consistent format between manuscripts (手稿)removes distractions like unusual presentation and puts each manuscript on the same starting level,with the focus on content.Leading publications get thousands of submissions a year.Editor time is extremely valuable.Most editors enjoy finding gems among the manuscripts,but they really dislike reformatting(don't you prefer eating an elegant meal to washing dishes?).When an editor sees he will have to spend an extra half hour of precious time in reformatting,he subconsciously marks that submission down compared to other submissions of equal quality.Publications need to have consistency in formatting for all their published stories: letterform,type size,spacing, paragraph structure etc.This keeps the reader’s focus on the words and not their structu re.Since editors don't have a choice to just accept a weirdly(古怪的)formatted story as it is,they are forced to either reformat or decline the submission.Publications use different software and other tools in theiroperations.Editors know what makes their system go smoothly.Many invisible software formatting structures between types of documents create disasters.Editors are not pedantic(迂腐的).Their job is to find great material and expose those works to appreciative readers.Differently formatted manuscripts steal time away from that responsibility,which is bad for everyone.Editors love nothing more than finishing a read and thinking “Wow.A great story-AND it's cut and paste!"1. What does the underlined word "gems" refer to in the third paragraph?A. Precious Jewels.B. Creative formats.C. Great stories.D. Amazing characters.2. What kind of manuscript is most likely to be refused?A. One with no special structures.B. One with a general letterform.C. One with attractive plots.D. One with a weird format.3. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. How the editors usually work.B. Why publications need consistent format.C. Why the manuscript's format can influence the editor's decision.D. The ways on how to format manuscripts.4. Drive through any suburb in the U.S. today,and it's hard to miss the bins that have become companions to America's trash cans.Recycling has become commonplace,as people recognize the need to care for the environment. Yet most people's recycling consciousness extends only as far as paper,bottles,and cans.People seldom find themselves facing the growing problem of e-waste.E-waste rapidly increases as the techno-fashionable frequently upgrade to the most advanced devices,and the majority of them end up in landfills(垃圾填埋地).Some people who track such waste say that users throw away nearly 2 million tons of TVs,VCRs,computers,cell phones,and other electronics every year.Unless we can find a safe replacement,this e-waste may get into the ground and poison the water with dangerous toxins(毒素),such as lead, mercury,and arsenic.Burning the waste also dangerously contaminates the air. However,e-waste often contains reusable silver.gold.and other electrical materials.Recycling these materials reduces environmental problems by reducing both landfill waste and the need to look for such metals,which can destroy ecosystems.A growing number of states have adopted laws to ban dumping e-waste.Still,less than a quarter of this refuse will reach lawful recycling programs.Some companies advertising safe disposal(处置)in fact merely ship the waste to some developing countries,where it still ends up inlandfills.These organizations prevent progress by unsafely disposing of waste in an out-of-sight,out-of-mind location.However,the small but growing number of cities and corporations that do handle e-waste responsibly represents progress toward making the world a cleaner,better place for us all.1. What can we infer from the first paragraph?A. Most Americans have realized the dangers of e-waste.B. E-waste cannot be put into trash cans in the U.S.C. Many Americans now have access to recycling bins.D. Most of America's trash cans are made of recycled material.2. What can best replace the underlined word "contaminates" in Paragraph 2?A. Pollutes.B. Heats.C. Absorbs.D. Reduces.3. How does the author feel about burying e-waste m landfills?A. It's important.B. It's unsafe.C. It's acceptable.D. It's uncommon.4. What's the author's purpose in writing this text?A. To tell us how to recycle e-waste.B. To talk about the future of e-waste.C. To discuss if it's necessary to recycle e-waste.D. To encourage us to deal with e-waste properly.二、七选五5. Ways to Worry LessDo you want to worry less? Of course you do,fight? That's like me asking if I could send you free bacon.Worry is like black mold—it appears in damp conditions and spreads uncontrollably.And often times we don't realize it's there until it's killing us.We must get rid of worry before it destroys us.But how? 1.Do what you need to do.2. You ought not to avoid tough projects or hard conversions until the last moment.If you don't do what you should be doing,you will end up spending the rest of the time worried about the must-to-do things.Believe it or not, the anxiety that comes from worrying is much worse than the task we're worriedabout.3.I think many of us act like we're puppets(木偶)in a play and we're waiting for something or someone to put us in the right place.You just react to whatever is going on. 4. We need to live on purpose.Nothing can cause worry like purposelessness.Make plans.You can't have intentionality without making plans.Making plan will enable you to achieve your aims more smoothly.Yet,don't place your plans in stone.You can adjust your plans flexibly.Accept changes. 5.There are other ways to lessen worry.As long as you are determined to take action,you will live a worry-free life.A.Worry ruins creativity.B.Get more intentional.C.Do what you should be doing.D.We need to stop letting life just happen.E.Make new plans and then move forward.F.You do the same as people around you do.G.Here are some effective ways to deal with it.三、完形填空6.

2019届高三上学期英语开学考试试卷一、阅读理解1. 阅读理解One night about nine o’clock, Dr. Eyck, a surgeon, had a phone call from Dr. Haydon at the hospital in Clens Falls. The surgeon was asked to go there at once to operate on a very sick boy who shot himself while playing with a gun.The doctor was soon on his way to Clens Falls. It was 60 miles away. And it was snowing heavily in the city. The surgeon thought he could get there before12 o’clock.A few minutes later, the doctor was stopped by a man in an old black coat. Gun in hand, the man ordered the doctor to get out. Then the man drove the car down the road, leaving the doctor in the falling snow.It was after 2 o’clock in the morning when the doctor arrived at the hospital in Clens Falls. Dr. Haydon told him that the boy had died an hour before. The two doctors walked by the door of the hospital waiting room. There sat the man in the old black coat with his head in his hands“Mr. Cuninghan,”said Dr. Haydon to the man, “This is Dr. Eyck.

Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed.The most famous migration is probably the migration of the fish, which is called “salmon”. This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many mil es to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies there. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster. Every year, when the season of bad weather arrives, the lobster get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go.So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other times we don’t. Maybe l iving things just like travel.(1)Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to _____.A . give birthB . enjoy warmer weatherC . find food more easilyD . find beautiful places(2)The mice in northern Europe move when _____.A . they need fresh waterB . the weather is badC . the place gets too crowdedD . they haven’t enough food(3)This passage is mainly about _____.A . why animals move from one place to anotherB . how animals can find food easilyC . new discoveries of animals travelingD . some problems withtraveling3. 阅读理解It was a warm April day when a big fat envelope came in the mail from the only college I had ever imagined attending. I tore open the packet. My eyes were fixed on the word “congratulations”. I don’t remember ever smiling so wide.Then I looked at my financial package.The cost of Dream School’s tuition, room and board was around $40,000 ? An impossible sum! How could I afford to attend? What good reasons did I have to go there when three other fine colleges were offering me free tuition? My othe r choices were good, solid schools even if they weren’t as famous as my first choice.In my mind, attending my dream university would be the only way to realize my dream of becoming a world-class writer. My parents understood how I felt. They told me that even though it would be a financial problem, I could go wherever I would be happiest. But as I was always careful with money, I wasn’t sure what to do.One of the schools that offered me a full ride had an informational dinner one night in the spring. Co nsidering my parents’ financial difficulties, I decided to drive the 45 minutes and attend. At first, all I had planned to do was smile politely, eat free food, listen quietly. But I surprised myself.At dinner the president of the university talked about the wonderful activities on campus including guest lectures and social gatherings. He alsomade it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all future events. He continued with explanations of professors, class sizes, activities, and sporting events on campus. As he spoke, I began to realize that this school, though not as good as my first choice, might be the best one for me. It seemed small yet with many great programs. It seemed challenging yet caring.As the president ended his speech, we clapped politely and pushed back our chairs. As I walked out of that door, a feeling of comfort washed over me. Looking at the campus that night, I realized that I would be spending the next four years right there.In all honesty, my university is not as well-known as my “dream” university. However, it turned out to be the right choice of schools for me.(1)How did the author feel when he started to read the letter?A . He was full of joy.B . He was lost in his dream.C . He was worried about the money.D . He was uncertain which school to go to.(2)We can learn from the passage that the parents were ______.A . honestB . strictC . supportiveD . decisive(3)In Paragraph 5, “offered me a full ride” can be replaced by “______”.A . would pay for transport to the schoolB . would show me around the campusC . would offer free meals at all eventsD . would charge me nothing for tuition(4)What does the author mainly want to say?A . Your second-choice college may actually be your best fit.B . You shouldconsider comfort in your choice of schools.C . You should try your best to attend your dream school.D . Your choice of schools should be based on their fame.4. 阅读理解In general, people talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. Researchers in psychology think that there are also two groups of people: people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool colors.The warm colors are red, orange and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people usually want to be active. People think that red, for example, is exciting. Sociable people, those who like to be with others, like red. The cool colors are green, blue and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue.Red may be exciting, but one researcher says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggests that a warm color, such as red or orange is a good color for a living room or restaurant. People who are talking or eating do not want time to pass quickly. Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass quickly.Researchers do not know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool. However, almost everyone agrees that red, orange, and yellow are warm and that green, blue, and violet are cool. Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days.Because in the north the sun is higher during summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow.(1)Which of the following colors belong to cool colors?A . Yellow, green.B . Blue, violet.C . Black, blue.D . Brown, white.(2)Which of the following statements is not true?A . Sociable people like warm colors.B . Warm colors can make people excited.C . People who like to be with others don’t like red.D . Where there are warm colors, people want to be active.(3)Which is the right color for different rooms?A . Red or orange for offices.B . Orange for dining-rooms.C . Blue for bedrooms.D . Red for studies.(4)What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A . It shows the reason why people think some colors are warm and others are cool.B . Warm colors remind people of warm days.C . Cool colors remind people of cool days.D . People have an agreeable opinion of warm colors and cool colors.二、任务型阅读5. 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。

AOne family, which moved from Japan and settled at the turn of the century near San Francisco, had built a business in which they grew roses and trucked them into San Francisco three mornings a week.The other family also marketed roses. For almost four decades the two families were neighbors, and the sons took over the farms, but then on December 7, 1941, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. Although the rest of the family members were American, the father of the Japanese family had never been naturalized. As they planned to leave the country,hisneighbor made it clear that, if necessary, he would look after his friend’s nursery(花圃).

Once a major American colonial city, it is the home of America’s first library, its first hospital, and its first zoo. Now it is also the first US city to be named a World Heritage City. On November 6, 2015, Philadelphia joined more than 260 other cities that have been recognized for their influence on the world. These cities include Paris, France, Florence, Italy, and Cairo, Egypt.“Today marks the start of a new and exciting chapter in the history of Philadelphia,” remarked Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter when the announcement was made. “As a World Heritage City, Philadelphia is being officially recognized on the global stage for its wealth of contributions to the world.To be named a World Heritage City, a city must be home to a UNESCO World Heritage site. UNESCO World Heritage sites are selected for their universal value and significance. For Philadelphia, the site is Independence Hall.Independence Hall is where two of the most important documents in US history—the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution—were adopted. The Declaration of Independence, approved on July 4, 1776, united the 13 former British colonies and declared them independent from British rule. The US Constitution, signed in 1787, established the American democratic system of government. A democracy is a system of government in which the people elect their leaders. The Constitution later spelled out the basic freedoms American citizens have.Philadelphia Deputy Mayor Alan Greenberger says the city’s selection as a World Heritage City also reflects its educational, cultural, and economic achievements. The city is home to dozens of colleges and universities, and many museums, such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art. “Philadelphia has rightfully earned its place as one of the greatest cities in the world.” Greenberger says.24. We can learn from Paragraph 1 that Philadelphia ________.A. as contributed a lot to the global economyB. has been famous as a World Heritage CityC. has the best American hospitalD. is known for many America’s firsts25. In Paragraph 2, Michael Nutter is talking about _________.A. the World Heritage CityB. the history of PhiladelphiaC. the significance of the city’s selectionD. the contributions of the city26. What opinion does Alan Greenberger hold?A. The city really deserves the honor.B. The honor will bring the city a better future.C. It won’t be long before the city takes off.D. It’s easy for the city to win the honor.27. What could be the best title for the text?A. Philadelphia Makes a DifferenceB. Philadelphia Makes HistoryC. Philadelphia Develops a LotD. Philadelphia Wins Global Respect【答案】24-27 DCABCThe values of artistic works, according to cultural relativism(相对主义), are simply reflections of local social and economic conditions. Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.History has witnessed the endless productions ofShakespearean plays in every major language of the world. It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries. Unique works of this kind are different from today’s popular art, even if they began as works of popular art. They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume argued that because“the general principles of taste are uniform(不变的) in human nature,”the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent. He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years. Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art. For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction. The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before. Research findings seem to indicatethat the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.28.According to the passage, what do we know about cultural relativism?A. It introduces different cultural values.B. It explains the history of artistic works.C. It relates artistic values to local conditions.D. It excites the human mind throughout the world.29.In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned in order to show that .A. great works of art can go beyond national boundariesB. history gives art works special appeal to set them apartC. popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great arts30.According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because .A. they are results of scientific studyB. they establish some general principles of artC. they are created by the world’s greatest artistsD. they appeal to unchanging features of human nature31.Which of the following can best serve as the title of thepassage?A. Are Artistic Values Universal?B. Are Popular Arts Permanent?C. Is Human Nature Uniform?D.Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?【答案】28-31 CADADThe idea that you can use humor, laughter, and play to make you healthier probably seems too simple to be true. However, it is really true and simple. The sense of humor, laughter and play has an important part in keeping you healthy.Use "the best medicine" to treat the blues with a sense of humor, which is closely tied to laughter. Laughter is infectious. Have you ever heard a big laugh of a young child and been able to keep yourself from smiling? When laughter is shared between people, it makes them closer to each other and increases their happiness. Smiling is the beginning of laughter and a smile is also just as infectious as laughter is. You can experience something by smiling at everyonearound you, and you will feel happier just by sharing a smile, even with a stranger.Play is an important part of making sure that we stay healthy. We are often encouraged to make sure our children play, and are told of the benefits of being out playing. However, what we often forget is that it is just as important for old people to ma ke play be part of their life as it’s for children. Physical play is important for the old and it certainly helps prevent illness. While the studies are still in the early stages, the studies that have been done have shown that physical play certainly plays a part in preventing cognitive(认知的) falling.Anyway, adding humor, laughter, and play to our life will influence us mentally, physically and socially and bring us many advantages. So we should make full use of humor, laughter and play to make our life more active, interesting and happier.32. What does the underlined word "infectious" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Playing an important role.B. Keepingpeople in high spirits.C. Quickly influencing other people.D. Preventing illness from spreading.33. What can laughter increase according to the author?A.

They should play like children.C. They should prevent cognitive falling.D. They should take part in physical play.35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Humor, Laughter and Play for HealthB. Always Keep Our Body HealthyC. Have an Active and Happy LifeD. Let Our Body and Mind Relax【答案】32-35 CBDA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。
