Let's take Jenny as an example. As the monitor, she spends a lot of timeworking for our class, but she still gets good grades in all subjects. How can she do that? Here is some of her advice. Hard work is not the whole story. It's not how long you sit at the desk. It's 1 you do while you are sitting.Studying is a matter of personal preference(偏爱). Some people like working late at night when the house is 2 ,while others like doing their work 3 in the morning. No matter which way you use, try to do your best.Studying is your business and business comes after entertainment(娱乐). When you are studying, phone calls should go unanswered, TV shows unwatched, snacks uneaten. Studying is the only thing in your mind. 4 should pull you away from what you are studying.Studying is like 5 . You chew(咀嚼)it one bite at a time. You can plan what to do today, but don't do too much. On the other hand, you will not study well without a good plan. It all depends on how you 6 your time.Maybe she is right, so why not have a try?1.A.what B.why C.how D.that2.A.clean B.beautiful C.quiet D.big3.A.alone B.lonely C.quickly D.early4.A.Something B.Anything C.Nothing D.Everything5.A.drinking.

If you’re wondering about the connection, the dish is composed of white truffle croquettes (油炸丸子).And in case you’re not into truffles, Quince also serves frog legs on top of iPads playing videos of frogs in a pond.“The idea is simply about taking the guest on a voyage,” Michael Tusk, who runs the restaurant, told Inside Scoop SF. “Living in San Francisco for over twenty years, I have seen the technological development, and I want to combine (结合)food industry with technology and a Me bit of education.” Local chef Richie Nakano attracted the attention of social media after showing a photo of the UA Dog in Search of Gold” that a friend had ordered. Some people complained about the high price of the dish, but most wondered whether it was healthy.Tusk said, “We asked local wood worker Luke Bartels to create a housing (防护外壳)for the iPad — a glass cover that protects the screen. The food does not directly sit on top of the iPad. The cover is washed after ev ery use.”Interestingly, Quince is reportedly the first U.S. restaurant to use iPads as plates, but definitely not the first in the world. The Daily Mail reports that restaurants in the UK have been using them for the last two years.1.The underlined phras e “is composed of” means ____.A.is known as B.is famous for C.is close to D.is made up of2.Why did the writer write the second paragraph?A.To introduce the owner of Quince to us.B.To tell us something about the food industry.C.To tell us why Michael Tusk came up with the idea.D.To tell us how Michael Tusk started the restaurant.3.What did people think of the dish “A Dog in Search of Gold”?A.It was expensive. B.It was unhealthy. C.It was funny. D.It was educational.4.What’s the best title for this p assage?A.A Dog in Search of Gold. B.A famous restaurant in the US.C.Serving food on iPads. D.Cooking food on iPadsB14、JOINING A CHOIRI’ve always loved singing, but singing hasn’t always loved me. Iwould open my mouth with a beautiful song in my head, fully expectingmy voice to follow suit — only to get an awful tone (音调)in return.Still, without a second thought, I continued to try to sing wheneverpossible. On car journeys, when my now twenty something sons weresmall, they would make a great play ( hands over their ears,shouting‘ No,Mum,stop!’) of going through punishment as I sang along to the radio.Never in a hundred years would I have thought about joining a choir. And when I did finally become a member of my first choir 15 years ago, something fantastic happened to my life. From the first time I experienced my voice as something special but also comfortable, in harmony (和谐)with the other singers, I lost my heart to singing. It was like falling in love. And everyone in the choir had the same shining smiles and bright eyes — singing made them feel happy, too.Although it is singing itself that makes me happy,it is also how a choir works together. There is something magical about breathing together.

The British actress played the beautiful girl Belle in Disney’s new live-action movie Beauty and the Beast(野兽). She also sang for the role, the first time she has done so in her career. The movie came out in China on March 17. Originally an animation film, it tells how a cursed man-beast is changed into a handsome prince by the love of Belle.To play the lead role in Beauty and the Beast, Watson turned down the offer of La La Land, which won six awards besides the Best Actress at this year’s Oscars. However, she does not regret it. She told Vanity Fair that she believes the movie say s something that is important for people to hear.This is not her first time being invited to play a Disney princess. She refused the offer to play Cinderella. But she happily took on Belle because she saw her as a better role model. Belle doesn’t mind Beast’s ugly appearance and sees his good heart within. “She remains curious, compassionate (有同情心) and open-minded,” she told Total Film. “She’s not easily swayed by other people’s ideas.”But to build her own version of Belle, Watson had a hand in shaping the character. She wanted Belle to be busy instead of justplaying in the castle all day. So she had the idea of turning Belle into an inventor, like her father. And Belle even made a washing machine herself, though people broke it. She wanted it to free girls from chores (杂务) and allow them to learn how to read. She told Entertainment Weekly that people who broke the washing machine was symbolic (象征的) of people who broke Belle’s spirit and pushed her to become the woman they wanted her to be.1.According to the passage, what does the movie Beauty and the Beast tell us?A.The reason why the beast has an ugly appearance.B.Beauties always fall in love with the ugly beasts easily.C.Belle loves the beast and doesn’t care about his appearance.D.A cursed man-beast is changed into a handsome prince by love.2.Why did Watson play the lead role in Beauty and the Beast?A.Because she refused to play Cinderella.B.Because she had no chance to play in La La land.C.Because she saw Belle as a better role model.D.Because she thought the movie was important for people.3.Why did people break Belle’s washing machine?A.Because they thought the machine was useless.B.Because they had an idea of turning her into an inventor.C.Because they wanted to push her to be the woman they liked.D.Because they wanted her to be busy instead of playing in the castle.4.Which may be the best title for this passage?A.A Disney’s Princess.

They liked working in the restaurant, but they got tired of the customers(顾客) ordering so many different things to eat.“If we gave customers a smaller menu(菜单), we could make some of the food before they came, and they wouldn’t have to wait so long for their meals,” said one of the brothers. The other brother agreed and said, “If we made the customers come to the counter(柜台), we wouldn’t need any waiters and waitresses(女服务员). We could also use plastic plates so there wouldn’t be any washing-up.”These were such good ideas that the McDonald’s brothers used them, and the customers were very pleased. They got their meals very quickly – in less than a minute – and they paid only 15 cents(分) for hamburgers and 10 cents for fries(油炸食品).The first McDonald’s restaurant had no seats fo r customers to sit on. This meant that people had to take their food away, and that no one had to clean up any tables after them.Then a man called Ray Kroc came to the brothers and asked to buy their business. They agreed to sell it to him for $27 million. After that, people paid Ray Kroc to open their own restaurants using the McDonald’s name and menu. Before long, there were McDonald’s restaurants all over the United States, and nowadays, they are all over the world – even in China and Russia. The most s uccessful McDonald’s business is in Hong Kong of China. The Hong Kong McDonald’s sells more hamburgers every day than any other McDonald’s anywhere else in the world.McDonald’s restaurants are so successful because children love going to them. They like t he food, and they like the toys and games they can get at McDonald’s.1.The McDonald brothers offered customers fewer kinds of foods so that _____.A.they didn’t need waiters or waitressesB.they could use plastic platesC.customers could get their meals quicklyD.customers would pay less.2.Customers“paid only 15 cents for hamburgers”means the hamburgers were___.A.expensive B.newC.cheap D.worth a lot less3.The first McDonald’s customers took their food away because_____.A.They wanted to eat it quicklyB.they did not want a large menuC.There were no seats in the restaurantD.they wanted to eat at home4.Nowadays, the owners of McDonald’s restaurants pay for ____.A.the McDonald’s name and menuB.children to play gamesC.people to take the food awayD.customers to eat quickly5.This story mainly tells us ____.A.a restaurant in California in 1948.B.how Ray Kroc made money for the McDonald brothers.C.where McDonald’s restaurants are in the world.D.how the McDonald’s business started and grew.F18、On Christmas Eve—the night before Christmas Day—children all over Britain put a stocking at the end of their beds before they go to sleep. Their parents usually tell them that Father Christmas will come during the night. Father Christmas is very kind and hearted. He gets to the top of each house and climbs down the chimney into the fireplace. He fills each of the stockings with Christmas presents. Of course, Father Christmas isn’t real. In Jim and Kate’s house, “Father Christmas” is really Mr Green. Mr Green doesn’t climb down the chimney. He waits until the children are asleep. Then he quietly goes into their bedrooms and fills their stockings with small presents. When they were very young, Mr Green sometimes wore a red coat. But he doesn’t do that now. The children are no longer young, and they know who “Father Christmas” really is.

Rather, a man ' s eyes often find nothing to focus on in abroad space of snow-covered land. So his gaze continually moves and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding something, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become tired and the eye muscles ache. Nature makes up for this discomfort by producing more and more fluid (液体) which covers the eyeball. The fluid covers the eyeball in increasing quantity until it makes eyes difficult to see clearly, and the result is total, even though for a short time, snow blindness.Experiments led the army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts (侦察员) ahead of the troops are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark-colored objects ahead on which they can focus too. The men following can then see something. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to look at, stop searching the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the men can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snow-blind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a continuous white land is overcome.34.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The whiteness from snow.B.Snow light and snow blindnessC.The need for dark glassesD.Headaches and watering eyes35.Snow-blindness can be avoided _____________ .A. by covering the eyeballs withe more and more tearsB.by walking ahead and keep looking aroundC.by making up for the discomfort of one 's eyesD.by providing the eyes with something to focus on36.What is the best title for this passage?A.

Plants are very important living things.Life could not go on if there were no plants.T his is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight.Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight.Animals get their food by eating plants and other an imals.Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live.This is why we find that the re are so many plants around us.If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plant s: flowering plants and non-flowering(不开花的) plants.Flowering plants can make seeds(种子).The seeds are protected by the fruits.Some fruits have one seed, some have two, thre e or four, and some have many seeds.But a few fruits have no seeds at all.An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit.Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds.They grow from spores(孢子).Spores are very, very small.Some spores are so small and light that they can float in t he air.We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds.When these spores fall on wet and shady(阴凉的) places, they usually grow into new plants.(1)What fact does the passage lead you to believe?________A Of all living things,animals are most important. B Spores are seeds. C All fruits of flowering plants h ave seeds. D Without plants,man will die out.(2)The paragraph following the passage will be about________.A how plants can make food from air.B how spores grow into new plants.C why some plants have no seeds.D why non-flowering plants are more important than flowering plants.(3)This passage is most likely to be taken from________.A a story book .B a novel.C a science magazine.D a laboratory report.17.Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and probably no food is more popular in the USA than a hamburger made from beef. In the 1960s a businessman named Ray Kroc began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers quickly, so people in a hurry could buy and eat them without waiting. By the end of the 1960s the McDonald's Company was selling hamburgers in a lot of restaurants from California to Maine. Not surprisingly, Ray Kroc became one of the richest businessmen in America.Other business people watched his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company, called "Wendy's" began to compete(竞争)with McDonald's. Wendy's said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonald's or anyone else's. The Wendy's Company created the expression "Where's the beef?" to make people believe that Wendy's hamburgers were the biggest. It produced a television advertisement to sell this idea. The Wendy's television advertisement showed three old women eating hamburgers. The bread that covered the meat was very big, but inside there was only a tiny(极小的)bit of meat. One of the women said she would not eat a hamburger with such a little piece of beef. "Where's the beef?" she shouted in a funny voice. These advertisements for Wendy's hamburger restaurants were a success from the first day they appeared on television. As we said, it seemed that everyone began using the expression "Where's the beef?" It was one of the most popular expressions in the USA.(1)From the passage, we know that the McDonald's Company was first run by ______.A McDonaldB WendyC Ray Kroc's good friendsD Ray Kroc(2)The underlined expression "Where's the beef?" in Paragraph 2 means "______".A the beef in the hamburgers is lostB the beef is as good as it is said to beC the ham burger is not as good as describedD the beef cannot be found(3)The passage implies(暗示)that some other people wanted to open hamburger restaurants because ______.A hamburgers were easy to makeB they wanted to make a lot of moneyC they could sell hamburgers from California to MaineD they thought hamburgers were good to eat 18.Bill Fuller, the postman, whistled(吹口哨)cheerfully as he pushed his bike up the hill towards Mrs Dunley's house. His work for the day was almost finished. His bag, usually quite heavy when he set out on his road, was empty now except for the letter that he had to deliver (递送)to Mrs Dunley. She lived over a mile from that village so that, when Bill had a letter for her, he always finished his day's work much later. He did not mind this, however, because she never failed to ask him in for a cup of tea.When Bill entered the gate of Mrs Dunley's house, he was surprised not to find her working in the garden. She usually spent most afternoons there when the weather was fine. Bill went straight round to the back of the house, thinking that she might be in the kitchen. The doorwas locked and the curtains were drawn. He returned to the front of the house and knocked hard on the door. There was no answer. Bill thought that this was very strange because he knew that Mrs Dunley hardly left the house.Just then, he noticed that her bottle of milk, which was delivered early in the morning, was still on the doorstep. This worried him. If Mrs Dunley had not taken in her milk, perhaps she was ill. Bill walked round the house until he found an open window. He squeezed(挤)through it. Then he went into the hall. There he almost fell over Mrs Dunley, who was lying at the foot of the stairs unconscious(昏迷不醒的). Realizing that there was little he could do for her, Bill rushed out of the house, stopped a passing car and told the driver to telephone for an ambulance(救护车)as soon as he got to the village.(1)What did Mrs Dunley usually do with Bill? ______A She usually asked him to have a cup of tea.B She usually had a talk with him.C She usually asked him to dinner.D She usually asked him to buy some tea.(2)The thing that especially worried Bill was ______.A finding the back door locked and the curtains drawnB seeing the bottle of milk on the doorstepC not getting any answer when he knocked on the doorD not finding Mrs D unley in the garden(3)How did Bill get help for Mrs Dunley? ______A He stopped a passing car and took her to the hospital.B He himself telephoned for an ambulance.C He stopped a car and asked the driver to telephone for an ambulance.D He asked the driver to take her to the hospital.19. For a long time being happy was considered something that just happened, and there w as nothing special about it.Now we know that getting along with other people is something that we can work at.It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better .One way is being unselfish, not wanting everything from our friends.Another way is to lo ok for good points, not bad points in other people.It is surprising how successful this treas ure hunt can be.You do not have to be spineless (优柔寡断的) in order to be popular.In fact, you will be liked or loved if you are not afraid to stand u p for your rights (正当行为).But do it politely and pleasantly.Being friendly and polite to your group, to other peo ple and to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you is one way to develop a good character.You cannot expect to be perfect, and you must learn not to be unhappy when you make mis takes.Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed if he does not refuse to learn fr om them.Many young people become discouraged (灰心丧气的) when they know in themselves qualities that they do not like-selfishness, laziness, and other unpleasant qualities.Just remember that we all have some o f these faults (缺点) and have to fight against them.At the same time, it is important to remember that while you are probably no worse than o thers, the best way to be happy is to think yourself above other people.When something iswrong, it is good sense to try to make it right.Perhaps you do not like a teacher or a classma te.Try to see why, and look at yourself, too, to be sure that you are not doing anything to ma ke that person dislike you.Some day, things may turn out all right when you have to learn to get along the best with the situation, without thinking too much about it.Worrying never h elps in a situation you cannot change.(1)One of the two ways the writer suggests for us to get along with others is to________.A work hard at everything we do. B enjoy the best share of everything. C look for treasure in order to be successful. D pay more attention to their strong points.(2)If a person wants to be popular,he or she has to________.A be polite and friendly.B give up some rights.C get away arguing with other peop le.D be ready to change his or her character.(3)There is no person but someone should be blamed if he or she________.A is modest and generous.B is selfish and lazy.C does not draw a lesson from hi s or her own fault.D is very happy with unpleasant quality.(4)The purpose for the writer to write the passage is to________.A train you to be perfect.B show you the way to be happy.C tell you how to act when you dislike a person.D teach you how to be popular among your friends.四、词汇运用(本大题共8分,每小题1分)(A)根据句意和汉语注释,在答题卡标有题号的横线上,写出单词的正确形式.20.
