At least that’s what 21 European teenagers think.The students, 18 from Germany and 3 from France, are exchange students. They are studying in the US for a year. After a few days in the US, they said what they thought about the country.Most talked about the amount of fast food US people eat. It’s not that the students don’t eat fast food. They just don’t eat as much.Laetitia Villeneuve from Fr ance said she eats fast food, usually McDonald’s, only once or twice a year.“I like it,” said Nora Koeberle from Germany. “But I couldn’t eat it every day. I’d get fat.”Students are surprised at how big US people seem.“There are fat people in Germany,” said Antonia Greimel from Germany. “But not as many as there are here.”They also spoke about the animals. Silvana Wolfram from Germany said she had heard about how people had lots of pets in the US.Other ways of US high schools interested the students.F or example, Koeberle said she wouldn’t be able to play an instrument or sports as part of her classes in Germany. She can in the US.But the best thing about US high schools is something the European kids can’t get back home. “I do wish we had parties,” Ko eberle said.4.Where do the 21 students come from?A.Germany and France. B.Germany and England.C.France and Greece. D.England and Greece.5.Which of the following about the students is TRUE?A.Greimel thinks there Ve more fat people in Germany.B.Villeneu ve eats McDonald’s once or twice a week.C.Koeberle has music class or PE class in Germany.D.Wolfram has learned something about pets in the US.6.According to the last paragraph, we know ________.A.Koeberle will go to parties before she leaves the USB.there are not parties in Keoberle’s school in GermanyC.Koeberle wants to hold a party with her classmatesD.Koeberle doesn’t like the parties in the US7.The passage is mainly about ________.A.why US people eat so much fast foodB.why US people are overweightC.what the 21 European students think of US peopleD.how people have lots of pets in the USI owe (欠) my father a huge thank -you! Sure, I need to thank him for all those years of paying my bills, fixing my bikes, and providing a shoulder to cry on. But this year I realized that his contributions to my childhood were much more than that.I grew up as Daddy’s Little Girl. If I had a problem that needed fixing or a question that needed answering, he was the one I ran to. He helped me get through everything from math homework as a high school student to career choices as a young adult. He always expected thatI do my best in whatever I did, and he believed I could succeed in anything I put my mind to. Asa result, I learned to hold myself to those same standards. He always showed me unconditional love, which helped me learn to love myself. It was something I,d taken for granted (认为是想当然的) until I realized from talking with my friends that they had no similar view of their self worth. Having fathers tha t didn’t believe in them left them to grow up not believing in themselves.As I was growing up, my father also showed to me how a woman should be lavished. He got along with my mom with love and respect. As a result, I grew to expect nothing less than that from the men I dated and from the man I would finally marry. Dad was a living picture of godliness (虔诚), honesty and responsibility. It was only recently that I realized what a deep influence fathers have on their daughters, lives. That is why I want to thank my dad for the example of love that he has been to me throughout my life.8.From the second paragraph, the writer thinks it is the most valuable that ________. A.her father was very strict with herB.her father helped her a lot in every wayC.nothing was difficult if her father was on her sideD.Father’s trust deeply influenced her self-confidence9.The underlined word “lavished” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by ________?A.loved B.respectedC.treated D.calmed10.Who would the writer turn to when in trouble?A.Her .friends. B.Her mother.C.Her husband. D.Her father.11.The feeling the writer wants to express to her father in this text is ________. A.grateful B.sadC.proud D.pitifulThe Internet plays a big part in human life. We use it for work and pleasure. We use it to learn a new language. We find advice on it. We use it to connect with family and friends. We use it to stay in touch with events we care about. The list goes on and on.As far as the Internet being a part of our lives, — well, that train has left the station. There is no going back to an Internet-free life. But can using the Internet too much be bad for our health? It might be, say researchers. A new study finds that heavy Internet use may be connected to high blood pressure (血压) in a young group: teenagers.The study results show that teens who spend at least 14 hours a week only online may cause high blood pressure, which makes your heart and blood vessels (血管) work too hard. Over time, this extra pressure increases your risk of a heart attack. High blood pressure can also cause heart and other diseases.The Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan did the study. 335 young people, from 14 to 17 years old, took part in it. 134 of the teens were described as “heavy Internet users”. And researchers found that out of these 134 teens, 26 had high blood pressure. The researchers say the study is the first to connect heavy web use with high blood pressure.The lead researcher is Andrea Cassidy Bush row. She said, “Using the Internet is pa rt of our daily life, but it shouldn’t ruin us.” Ms. Cassidy-Bushrow adds that it is important for teensto stop to have a rest regularly from their computers or smartphones and do some kind of physical activity. She also suggests that parents shouldn’t le t their children use the Internet for more than two hours a day, five days a week.12.What does the underlined part “that train has left the station.” mean in paragraph 2? A.the train has stopped at the wrong stationB.life without the Internet is nowhere to be foundC.the train has changed its courseD.there is something wrong with the station13.What is Para. 3 mainly about?A.The advantages of Internet use. B.The harm of high blood pressure. C.The disadvantages of Internet use. D.Ways to prevent high blood pressure. 14.Andrea CassidyBushrow would agree that ________.A.teenagers shouldn’t use the InternetB.the Internet will ruin human life in the futureC.regular breaks are necessary when using the InternetD.smartphones are more harmful than computers15.What can be used as the best title of the passage?A.Heavy Internet users are mostly teenagers.B.How to prevent teenagers from the Internet.C.Every coin has two sides - so does the Internet.D.Too much Internet use may be bad for teenagers.二、七选五We all know that exercise is good for our health. But some kinds of exercise may be better than others. Running, for example, may help to protect against heart disease and other health problems. Running is good exercise, but it can be hard on the body. 16..Take It easy.Do not run too much, too soon or too fast. Most people get running injuries when they push themselves too bad. The body needs time to get used to increase in distance or speed. 17.Listen to your body.Most running injuries do not come unexpectedly (意外地). 18.. They may include body aches, sore muscles (肌肉) and pain that does not go away.19.There is no single best shoe for every runner. You should find the shoe that offers the best fit and support for your feet. More importantly, you should replace your shoes every 500 to 800 kilometers.Take good notes.Take time after each run to write down what you did and how you felt. Look for things that happen over again. These notes will help you find the best exercise for you.Cross train.As we said earlier, running is hard on your body. So physical fitness experts suggest some form of cross training to improve muscle balance and to help you stay injury free. They say, besides running, swimming, yoga, and riding a bicycle are good exercises. 20..A.Get good running shoesB.Usually, there are warning signsC.These exercises are easier on the bodyD.Running may also help you live longerE.Muscles and joints (关节) need time to recoverF.Here are five ideas to make injuries less likelyG.As advertisem ents for the running shoe Nike say, “just do it”.三、完形填空Paen Long has had a dream ever since he saw a plane for the first time at the age of six.

This isRenia’s Diary, a journal that was hidden for years in a safe box. Now it’s coming to light with the help of Renia’s sister and niece.For a long time, Elizabeth didn’t even know that her older sister Renia had kept a diary as a teenager in Poland. Then suddenly one day in the 50s, Elizabeth got the diary and started to read it. She was totally stunned and couldn’t get very far. “It was too painful to read it,” Elizabeth recalls. “I just put it in the basement and didn’t think about it.”Alexandra, Elizabeth’s daughter, grew up knowing about the locked diary. As Alexandra got older, she was more interested in it. “If I could read this diary, maybe I’ll explore some things from the past,” she thought.She got the diary from its hiding place. When she read it, Alexandra was shocked. “It’s the description of a wonderful girl who showed great courage in terrible times. My aunt’s world comes to life as the diary shifts between a teenage girl’s daily life and the war.”Elizabeth and her daughter Alexandra are excited that the diarywill be published. “It is a story that needs to be heard now more than ever.

Even if they enter a formal school, their dropout rates are veryhigh. Door Step School (DSS) aims tobridge the hugegap between these kids and education.True to its name, Door Step Schoolsets up a school right at the doorstep of kids who can’t get formal education due to a variety of reasons.The team at DSS follows a direct model—they set up a classroom in any area, a footpath, construction site, or underpass, where they foresee the greatest need. They look for proper locations, and after making sure that enough resources are in place, they accept students in the area. DSSprovides lessons of different levels. The organizationeven triesto provide classes in the local language, or whateverthe students choose.Another interesting project of DSS is a school on wheels. It uses a bus that has been changed into a classroom, which holds about 25 kids at a time.Since it was started in 1988, Door Step School has spread from Mumbai to the neighbouring city of Pune in Maharashtra, covering a larger area and number of kids. Now DSS has a team of more than 1,000 volunteers and teacherswho change more than 70,000 lives each year.DSS doesn’t end at kids. The organisation educates parents on theimportance of sending their kids to school. Its efforts have brought education to thousands of students in the last two decades. Their belief in education for all has not only changed children’s lives but also continued the fight against one of the biggest problems India faces. All children have the right to an education, and DSS is providing just that.1.Why is the organization named “Door Step School”?A.It is different from formal schools.B.It is usually built near students’ houses.C.It sets up schools in areas with large populations.D.It provides education wherever children can easily go.2.What can we learn about the lessons provided by “Door Step School”?A.They are better than formal school lessons.B.They include whatever a school can provide.C.They suit children at different levels.D.They are easy for kids to learn by themselves.3.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A.The development of Door Step School.B.The foundation of Door Step School.C.The management of Door Step School.D.The future of Door Step School.4.It can be inferred that one of the biggest problems India faces is that _______.A.there are no formal schoolsB.many children receive no educationC.children refuse to attend schoolsD.the country is short of teachersSnow leopards (豹) are so hard to photograph that scientists aren’t even sure how many of these endangered animals still live in the wild.The Snow Leopard Conservancy(SLC) set up 20 cameras in Russia in 20xx to learn more about the big cats. After a full six months, they had exactly zero picture! That’s when the organization understood they needed help. And the only people who could help them in finding the leopards were the very people from whom they wanted to protect the animals—local hunters (猎人).Hunting snow leopards is against the law in Russia, but in the terrible climate of Siberia, the few people living there had to turn to poaching (盗猎) to feed their families.In 20xx,Russian naturalist Sergei Spitsynapproached Mergen Markov, a local hunter, and told him his project. Markov agreed to set up the camera where he knew he would find leopards, and it worked.Markov, once a poacher, works full time for the conservationists now and has 10 cameras monitoring leopards. “I visit each camera once a month. I have known this whole region since I was a child,” he said proudly.The World Wildlife Fund (WWF)began working with other local villagers in 20xx. The village would be paid 40,000 rubles at the end of the year if the image of a snow leopard is caught. WWF also rents horses from the villagers so that they do not need to make money by poaching anymore. “Today there are far fewer leopard poachers but leopards still get caught in traps set for other animals, so I have to stay watchful,” said Markov.Changing guns for cameras has made a big difference in the lives of these former poachers, the village, and the Russian snow leopards. The number of snow leopards has been rising and their population is expected to recover to normal levels within 10 years.1.Why was no picture of snow leopards taken in six months?A.SLC’s 20 cameras failed to work properly.B.The number of snow leopards in the wild was too small.C.The local poachers destroyed these cameras on purpose.D.The researchers knew little about the animal’s living habits.2.What did Sergei Spitsyn persuade Markov to do?A.Find the poachers.B.Repair cameras in the forest.C.Catch more leopards.D.Work for SLC.3.Why did the WWF begin working with local villagers?A.To get some pictures of snow leopards.B.To help villagers make a living.C.To prevent villagers from hunting animals.D.To rent their horses at a low price.4.How can we describe the WWF’s cooperation with the villagers?A.Practice makes perfect.B.Curiosity kills the cat.C.Kill two birds with one stone.D.Old habits die hard.二、七选五Some people feel they don’t have time tovolunteer, seeing it as an activity that only benefits others. 1. This is how volunteering can change your own life.★When you volunteer, you are making a direct influence on the people affected by volunteering, but the impact goes far beyond the fact that you are helping people. When you volunteer, you provide connection for others and yourself. 2.★V olunteering helps learn new skills to improve your career outlook.It might be discovering how to use one program well. 3. Whatever volunteer experience you gain, there will be many chances to learn new practical, social and communication skills. They will help you grow as a human being.★4.

Find an organization involved in something you are crazy about and sign up as a volunteer. You never know just how much it will benefit you in the long term.A. So what are you waiting for?B. However, it can have a huge influence on yourself as well.C. When you volunteer, you easily make friends with other volunteers.D. Good connection with others is the most necessary thing all people need.E. Studies show lasting happiness and lower sadness rates among volunteers.F.

It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, ''Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it. ''She glanced down at me through her glasses, ''You are not different from your classmates, young man. '' I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Lous Braile. He lived in a time when the blind couldn't get much education. But Louis didn't give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots (点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.Wasn't I the ''blind'' in my class, being made to learn like the ''sighted'' students? My thoughts, spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was not different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problem, why should I ever give up?I didn't expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day-with an ''A'' on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words, ''See what you can do when you keep trying? ''4.Why didn't the author finish the reading in class?A.Because he didn't like the teacher.B.Because he was not fond of literature.C.Because the class room was too noisy.D.Because he got a kind of attention disorder.5.What can we learn about Louis Braille from the passage?A.He couldn't see and read for the whole life.B.He got a good education at school.C.He made an invention which helps the blind.D.He managed to cure his blindness.6.What's Mrs. Smith's attitude to the author in the classroom?A.She encouraged him. B.She looked down on him.C.She sympathized(同情) him. D.She was angry with him.7.What can we learn from the passage?A.Keep trying, and you can do it.B.Ways to overcome attention disorder.C.How to be a great teacher.D.What should you do as a blind.What is an accent (口音)? An accent is a flavoring to you that influences the sounds of words and sentences. In Birmingham you might hear ''lake'' sounding close to ''like'', and in Ireland you might hear ''this'' sounding close to ''diss''.Accents are related to social group. Everyone has an accent, and for every accent there are groups of people who react badly to it. These reactions are the result of prejudice (偏见)-an unreasoned jumping to conclusions.Everybody has prejudices about accents. I certainly do. I have held prejudices about other people's accents. But over the years, my experience of working with people from all kinds of backgrounds has led me to give up these prejudices. However, I still have prejudices that I find difficult to control.Studies tell us that no accent is better than any other. But the reality is that many people judge others according to accents.Jacob, Member of Parliament (议会), remembers when he first stood unsuccessfully for election in Fife, Scotland, ''I gradually realized that whatever I happened to be speaking about,the number of voters in my favor dropped as soon as I opened my mouth. ''And some people change their accents to sound more refined (文雅的) when talking to people outside their circle of family and friends.Sky News ran a report recently in which an 18-year-old woman was trying to sound less posh (上等人的), that is speaking non-standard English, because she didn't like the strangers telling her that she must be rich and from a famous family.Lastly, it's worth being reminded that people can have an accent and still be recognized. 8.What does the author think of accent prejudice?A.It is reasonable. B.It should be banned(禁止).C.It is hard to avoid. D.It causes serious social issues. 9.Why did Jacob fail in the election?A.What he said was unwise.B.He spoke with an accent.C.He broke the election rules.D.He was unable to make himself understood.10.What did the 18-year-old woman try to do according to Sky News?A.To keep her ways of speaking.B.To change her accent.C.To pretend to be a well-educated person.D.To learn the upper-class British accent.11.What does the last sentence of the passage mean?A.The accent tells what kind of people you are.B.It is easy to recognize people with accent.C.People with accent can also be successful.D.It is important to recognize one’s accent.A few years ago, my sister-in-law started to feel concerned about her teenage daughter. What was she doing after school? Where was she spending her time? My niece was an excellent student, and took part in all kinds of after-class activities. Even so, her mom decided to put a tracking app (跟踪应用程序) on the kid's phone.At first, this made my sister-in-law ''feel better''. Then the good situation suddenly ended. She recalled, ''I found out that she was someplace that she said she wasn't. I went out in themiddle of the night and found her walking without shoes in the middle of the street with some friends. '' Things went quickly downhill for the mother and the daughter after that.With 73% of teens having their own smartphones now, according to a 2015 Pew study, more and more of their parents are facing the question: To watch or not?Ana Homayoun, founder of Green Ivy Educational Consulting, has advised many parents and their kids about this. ''I've found teens are more acceptable to tracking apps when it is included as part of a family agreement to improve safety than when it is placed as a secret tool to watch them, '' she said.Mark Bell, a father of a teenage girl, said, ''We don't have tracking apps, but we have set some ground rules that my daughter must follow in exchange for us providing a smart phone, ''he said. For example, his daughter must ''friend'' him on social media so that he can read posts, and must share all passwords.When you're trying to build trust, you need to create an environment that encourages it. So, to win their trust, you always need to be straight with your children. ''Parents must let children know how and when they'll be watching them, '' said Doctor Pauleh Weigle. If they're not open about it, he warns, it can ''greatly damage the parent and child relationship''.12.What’s result of the author's sister-in-law using the app?A.She felt good with knowing her daughter's after school activities.B.She wasn't worried about her daughter any more.C.She had more communication with her daughter.D.She had more conflicts with her daughter.13.What can we learn about today's teens from Homayoun?A.They doubt family agreements.B.They are worried about online safety.C.They dislike being watched secretly with tracking apps.D.They welcome the use of tracking apps.14.Why are Mark Bell and his daughter mentioned in Paragraph 5?A.To show how to use smart phone safely.B.To give an example of being straight with children.C.To teach how to put tracking app on phones.D.To tell the importance of being children's friend.15.What should be done before using a tracking app according to Weigle?A.Teach the kid how to use it. B.Check the kid's phone.C.Tell the kid about it. D.Advise the kid to use his phone less.二、七选五From old times, crows (乌鸦) have been famous for their cleverness. They use tools, work out problems, and even enjoy playing. 16.To make tools, crows cut off leaves with their ''mouths'', shape them, and use them to look for bugs in wood or plants. 17.When the leaf isn't needed for the moment, the bird stores the tool at its feet or somewhere else.To test wild crows' abilities to work out problems, scientists placed food outdoors in covered bowls. They watched with interest as the birds smartly opened the bowls to get the food. Scientists also found out that crows can make use of the traffic. 18..19.Young crows will carry a stick or nut into the air, drop it, and fly to catch the object as it falls.So just how smart are crows? Perhaps a crow will never do tricks as a dog will. 20.A.Many people don't like crows.B.Just as a carpenter (木匠) carries his tools with him, a crow will carry its tool around. C.Crows are cleverer than many other birds.D.For example, crows would drop a nut on the road and wait for a car to run over the nut to break it.E.Besides, crows seem to enjoy playing.F.Scientists have studied carefully how crows go about these activities.G.But scientists agree that there's a lot going on in the brain of a clever crow.三、完形填空I always wanted to look like the slim girls on TV even though I knew that it was impossible. I worried about my 21 and tried every new diet I read about online. I tried no-fat, low-fat, only bananas, no bananas-I almost went bananas, too.Then I read an article that said 22 asking ''Am I fat? '' I should be asking ''Am I 23 ?'' I had no 24 a letter could make such a 25 ! Once I started thinking about fitness rather than weight, things began to 26 . Instead of saying ''I want to lose three kilos'', I would say ''I want to 27 two kilometers in eight minutes'' or ''I want to do30 push-ups''. Rather than 28 the foods I enjoyed, I added healthy foods to my meals.

安徽省蚌埠市2022-2023学年高一上学期期末学业水平监测英语试卷学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解America’s Most Beautiful Places to Visit in SpringWashington, D.CEvery spring, Washington, D.C.is blanketed in pink with cherry blossoms. To celebrate the event, come to the National Cherry Blossom Festival, which takes place from the last week in March to the second week in April. You can view the flowers or take part in festival events.Charleston, South CarolinaNo list of beautiful spring cities would be complete without mention of Charleston, South Carolina. Delight in hanging plants, cobblestone streets, and historic castles. And because of year-round pleasant temperatures, you might even hit a beach day in March or April.North Caseades National Park, WashingtonThe North Caseades is home to everything from mountains to forests to grassland, and the scenery changes seasonally. In spring, the snow disappears to bring strong waterfalls, and wildflowers spot the land. Different areas will present totally unique plants, so give yourself a few days to take in the sighs.Central Park, New YorkNew York is the city that never sleeps, no matter what the season, but springtime is the best time to take a walk through Central Park. It is one of the most filmed locations in the world. A springtime walk past Victorian houses a brief visit to ancient shops, and of course long walks by the lake.1.Which is the right time to attend the National Cherry Blossom Festival?A.March 8.B.March 15.C.April 3.D.April 28. 2.What is special about Charleston, South Carolina in spring?A.Wonderful cherry blossoms.B.Year-around pleasant temperatures. C.Victorian houses and old shops.D.Strong waterfalls and wildflowers. 3.Where will you go if you are interested in movies?A.Washington, D.C.B.Central Park, New York C.Charleston, South Carolina D.North Caseades National ParkMost people in their eighties would consider themselves lucky not to have health problems, but this is not the case with Toshisuke Kanazawa. The 82-year-old Japanese bodybuilder is not only in perfect physical condition, he also looks better than a lot of men a quarter his age.Kanazawa is living proof (证明) that you’re never too old to hit the gym and achieve the body you’ve always dreamed of. A champion bodybuilder in his youth, Kanazawa stopped exercising completely after he retired at age 34, drinking, smoking and eating whatever he liked. It wasn’t until he turned 50 that he got his motivation to regain the perfect body of his younger years.Kanazawa’s wife felt sick frequently, and the former bodybuilder remembered that she had never been happier than when he won the national championship. So to please her, he decided to return to the gym and completely change his diet.His workout schedule had to be adjusted to his age as well. In his youth, he would spend up to six hours training in the gym every day, and his body would recover within two days after a particularly intensive (强化的) workout, but that was not the case anymore. He cut the daily gym time to three hours and started giving his body one week to recover after exercising every muscle group.Kanazawa’s efforts paid off. In 2016, at the age of 80, Kanazawa defeated many opponents and placed sixth in the world in a contest for bodybuilders over 65, and won the admiration of the crowd.Sport keeps this elderly man healthy, as he claims not to have suffered so much as a cold since he started bodybuilding again at age 50.“I want to be a super old man in the bodybuilder community,” Kanazawa said, “If I have a goal, I can continue moving forward. I have to work much harder.”4.What can we learn about Kanazawa from Paragraph 2?A.He started bodybuilding at the age of 34.B.He seldom exercised when he was young C.He had serious health problems in his childhood.D.He developed an unhealthy lifestyle after he retired.5.Why did Kanazawa decide to take up exercise again?A.To help change his diet.B.To cheer up his wife.C.To stand to his promise.D.To recover from illness.6.What did old Kanazawa do while rebuilding his body?A.He took the same workout schedule.B.He turned to the doctors for advice. C.He combined relaxation with exercise.D.He spent over six hours training every day.7.What can be the best title for the text?A.Bodybuilding: No Age Limit B.Champion: The Result of Workout C.Exercise: The Best Medicine for Illnesses D.Understanding: A Guarantee of HappinessAstronauts get to experience many interesting attractions. When astronauts go to space, they can become weightless. They get to see Earth as a little blue dot. Astronauts get to experience shooting up into space at 20,000 miles per hour. That is more than three times faster than an airplane. Sill, food is not one of the interesting parts of being an astronaut. Space travelers have had to eat strange foods. One example is liquid salt and pepper.However, the menu for astronauts is going to grow. Scientists have been growing lettuce in outer space. The lettuce is just as safe, nutritious(有营养的) and tasty as lettuce grown on Earth Gioia Mass works at the NASA Kennedy Space Center in Florida. She is the lead scientist on the lettuce growing project. She said that growing food in space could be pivotal for astronauts on long missions(任务). Massa says that today’s space food may not work for these longer missions. This packaged food is stored for a long time. The quality and taste of the food goes down. In addition, the vitamins in the food start to breakdown. Massa says the astronauts may not get enough nutrition from these foods during long missions.She also added that there could be another benefit to growing food in space. Looking after plants could help astronauts emotionally. Space food has improved in recent years. Many astronauts visit the International Space Station (ISS). It is a research station in outer space. Anything sent to ISS has to be perfect on a taste test. Even so, astronauts can grow tired of eating the same old meals. Massa says many of the astronauts end up losing weight.The space-grown lettuce was similar to Earth-grown lettuce. In fact, some of the space-grown plants had more nutrients than Earth-grown lettuce. The space lettuce also had higher levels of bacteria(细菌). This was possibly because the lettuce grew in a warmer, morehumid system. However, none of this bacteria was dangerous.8.Why does the author mention some strange foods space travelers have had to eat?A.To draw a conclusion.B.To prove an idea.C.To introduce the topic.D.To give explanations.9.What does the underlined word “pivotal” probably mean in the second paragraph? A.Important.B.Unbelievable.C.Adventurous.D.Impossible.10.Which of the following may Massa agree with?A.Astronauts get little nutrition from growing food in space.B.Growing food in space gives astronauts a more varied diet.C.Astronauts get help physically by looking after plants in space.D.Astronauts never grow tired of eating the same old packaged food.11.What may happen in the following days according to the text?A.NASA will grow other produce on the ISS.B.More and more astronauts will end up losing weight.C.Astronauts will stop their missions and tum to growing space food.D.More Earth-grown food will be sent to ISS to keep astronauts from getting sick.二、七选五Welcome to your fresh year of high school! Junior high is now behind you, and now youanxiety.Seniors seem really big. The seniors will walk in with a swagger(趾高气扬). They have an understanding of the school that you don’t, and you can see it in their excitement about being at the top of the high school ladder. 13 They were once where you were and one day you will be one of those seniors.14 Your coursework will increase significantly, and expectations from your teachers will be much greater.

So we decided to try making a few tables andchairs.”John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $ 280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $ 420. “I was deeply upset about it.

A short time ago, a test(试验)was given in the United States. People of different ages, from 12to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all, Scientists(科学家)wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfast.The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he or she will learn more quickly and listen more carefully in class. The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight(减轻体重). This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat to much for lunch. They will gain weight(增加体重)instead of losing it.

And a story can be told about each of them. “Hot” is a simple, easily-understood word. So are most of the expressions made with the word “hot”. But not always, as we shall see.Take the phrase “hot potato” for example. The potato is a popular vegetable inthe United States. Many people like baked potatoes, cooked in an oven or fire. Imagine trying to carry a hot, baked potato in your hand. It would be difficult, even painful, to do so. One such hot potato is taxes. Calling for higher taxes can mean defeat for a politician. And yet, if taxes are not raised, some very popular government programs could be cut, which can also make a politician very unpopular.Another expression is “not so hot”. If you ask someone how she feels, she may answer: "Not so hot." What she means is that she does not feel well. “Not so hot” is also a way of saying that you do not really like something.“A hot shot” is a person, often a young person, who thinks he can do anything. At least he wants to try. He is very sure he can succeed. But often he fails. The expression came from the army. A hot shot was a soldier who fired without aiming carefully.A person who becomes angry easily is called “a hothead”. An angry person's neck often becomes red. We say he is “hot under the collar”. You could say that your friend is no hothead. But he got hot under the collar when someone took his radio.The hot line was a direct communication link between the leaders of the Soviet Union and the United States. The hot line had an important purpose: to prevent accidental war between the two competitors during the period known as the Cold War.

Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the day. The rest that you get while sleeping makes it possible for your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your body relaxes little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts(变换) back and forth from one level to the other.Although your mind slows down, you will dream from time to time. Scientists who study sleep point out that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend(建议) breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep.49.
