Larry Ellison came from the slums to co﹣found Oracle.Larry Ellison was born on the Lower East Side of New York and that district was poor and filled with immigrants(移民)fighting to survive. At an early age, Ellison was ill and was sent to the South Side of Chicago to live with relatives.Though there were somedifficulties, he was able to educate himself and join Software Development Laboratories, in 1977.This was an important move, because in 1982 the company became Oracle. This is a company that brings in $38 billion every single year and along the way, Ellison managed to own over $46.2 billion. He stepped down as CEO in 2014.Zdenek Bakala leaves Communist Czechoslovakia with$50.Zdenek Bakala left Czechoslovakia for Lake Tahoe in the United States with just$50 in his pocket when he was just 19.0nce there, he got a job washing dishes.Bakala attended the famous University of California﹣Berkeley.

That period lasted for three years before he founded the company and opened its first clothing store, in 1984.This family business grew quickly and Forever 21 has 480 locations across the world. It has also managed to bring in$3 billion per year.

Ned wanted to escape from the Nautilus while we were in theMediterranean. However, he had no chance. The submarine raced into the Atlantic in two days mostly staying deep under the water. I saw many shipwrecks along the way. Some were very old. Others were more recent. As it surfaced, the submarine turned north.Ned came to my room. "Tonight!" he said. "Tonight? " I wasn't ready for this. "Tonight, " he repeated, "we are a few miles off the Spanish coast. It will bedark, and the wind is blowing in the right direction. You agreed, Dr. Aronnax, to escape with me. Remember your promise!" I said nothing. "At nine, I will go to the staircase with Conseil. You will wait in the library for our signal.Everything is ready.""The sea is quite rough." I said."Yes, but if ________ don't go tonight, we will soon be too far from land!"As I waited for Ned's signal, the Nautilus's engines stopped. I felt a bump as the submarine came to rest on the ocean floor.The library door opened and Captain Nemo entered. He took me to the window. I found the crew of the Nautilus were gathering some gold from the sand and bringing it to the submarine. Now I knew how the Captain became so rich. "But of what use is all this gold to you? " I asked. "It's of no use to me!" he replied, "but it can help people who are suffering."Ned came to my room the next morning. "We were unlucky, the Nautilus stopped just as we were about to escape."I told him what I had learned about Nemo and the gold. I hoped that Ned would change his mind, but he didn't. The Nautilus was going away from the land. Escape was impossible now. Ned was disappointed, but I was not.At eleven that night, I was surprised that Captain Nemo invited me to go for a night walk under the sea.(1)Which of the following is right according to the passage?________A Ned Land didn't want to escape any more.B Dr. Aronnax didn't want to escape that night.C They failed to escape because of the winddirection.

Honesty is a good thing. But does Mother Nature agree? Animals can't talk, but can they lie in other ways?Animal experts may not call it lying, but they do agree that many animals, from birds to chimpanzees(⿊猩猩), behave dishonestly to fool other animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps them survive.Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. For example, a bird called the plover sometimes pretends(假装) to be hurt in order to protect its young. When a predator (猎⾷动物) gets close to its nest, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. How? It pretends to have a broken wing. The predator follows the "hurt" adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest.Another kind of bird, the scrub jay, hides its food so it always has something toeat. Scrub jays are also thieves. They watch where others hide their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them. So they go back later, dig the food, and hide it again somewhere else.________After a fight, the losing chimp will give its hand to the other. When the winning chimp puts out its hand, too, the chimps are friendly again. But an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winner's hand and start fighting again.Chimps are sneaky in other ways, too.When chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is natural for them to cry out. Then other chimps come running. But some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimps don't hear them, and they don't need to share their food.As children, many of us learn the saying "You can't fool Mother Nature." But maybe you can't trust her, either.(1)A plover protects its young from a predator by________.A getting closer to its youngB driving away the adult predatorC leaving its young in another nestD pretending to be injured.(2)By " Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky ", the writer means________.A chimps are ready to attack othersB chimps are sometimes dishonestC chimps envy the winners of the fightD chimps can be selfish too.(3)Which of the following is true according to the passage?________A All the animals survive by fooling other animals.B Some clever scrub jays often steal their food back.C Some chimps lower their cry to keep food away from others.D The losing chimp won the fight by taking the winner's hand..(4)Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?________A Do animals lie?B Does Mother Nature fool animals?C How do animals learn to lie?D How does honesty help animals survive?.20. Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the population of the world was hunter﹣gatherers, small, closely connected groups developed their own speech different from each other. Some language experts believe that 10, 000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12, 000 languages between them. Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation﹣state and the spread of education, especially globalization and better communications in the past few years, all have caused many languages to disappear, and ________ languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6, 800 languages. The distribution(分布) of these languages is hugely unbalanced.The general rule is that warm, pleasant areas have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet areas havelots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about 1, 000; Africa 2, 400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3, 200, of which Papua New Guinea alone has well over 800. The median number (中位数) of speakers is only 6, 000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already over 400 of the total of 6, 800 languages are close to extinction (消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. For example, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question﹣mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.(1)What can we learn about languages in hunter﹣gatherer times?________A They were developing very fast.B They were similar to each other.C They were large in number.D They were closely connected..(2)Which of the following best explains " dominant " underlined in paragraph 2?________ A Powerful. B Traditional.C Simple. D Modern..(3)How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?________A About 6,800.B About 3,400.C About 2,400.D About 1,200..(4)What is the main idea of the text?________A New languages will be created.B People's lifestyles are seen inlanguages. C Language development depends on geography. D Human development leads to fewer languages.四、词汇运⽤(计10分)根据句⼦意思,⽤括号中所给汉语提⽰或英语单词的适当形式填空.在答题卡标有题号的横线上,写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式.(每空⼀词)21.

Hess is the director of education policy studies at the AmericanEnterprise Institute. He says that a long summer vacation is meaningless in today's world.Can American students afford to take a summer vacation? In a summer vacation, millionsof kids spend valuable time sending messages, watching TV, playing video games and doing shopping in the mall.They will also be putting their academic(学业的) futures at risk.Summer vacation once made sense in the past when you didn't need an education to get a good job. But now things have changed. For today's students, academic skills are important to students' future success, but such skills are influenced in the summertime. Many nations don't give kids an American﹣style summer vacation. They offer no more than seven consecutive(连续的) weeks of vacation. Most American school offer up to thirteen weeks. To take part in the competition in the global marketplace,Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors.Summer vacation also causes challenges for today's families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of families had a stay﹣at﹣home Mom. Now two﹣thirds of American children live in families where every adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be a burden(负担). Someone must watch the kids.But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academicachievement. Researchers have found that disadvantaged students lose basic ground in the summertime.A longer school year does not have to cause hard boring work. Instead, it should allow time﹣pressed teachers to have richer and more imaginative lessons. Schools would have more time to devote to sports, languages, music and the arts. Summer vacation can be a great thing. But in the 21st century, it may also be out of date.Title: Summer Vacation六、缺词填空(计l0分)根据短⽂内容和⾸字母提⽰,在下⽂空格处填⼊适当的词使短⽂完整.在答题卡标有题号的横线上,写出空缺处各单词的正确形式.(每空⼀词)32.

Are Training Classes Necessary ?Nowadays more and more students attend different kinds of training classes or hire tutors to improve their grades at the weekends.(开篇点明题意)Some of the students think it is necessary to do so. Firstly, it's more effective to study with a teacher's help than by themselves. Secondly, students can make up for what they miss or fail to understand in class on weekdays.Besides,they can have more chances and time to communicate with teachers(⾼分句型⼀).(陈述⼀⽅观点)However, others don't think so. For one thing, students can easily develop the habit of dependence causing some students not to listen attentively in their regular classes. For another, students need time for rest and recreation at weekends. What's worse,attending training classes means costing them much money.(陈述另外⼀⽅观点)In my opinion, whether a training class or a tutor is needed ,it depends. If you are really very weak at or interested in a subject, maybe it's necessary for you(⾼分句型⼆).But be sure to choose a suitable class or teacher.Otherwise, it would be a waste of time and money.(总结陈述⾃⼰观点)。

A fire had broken out her room and woke her. Hearing her, my older brother jumped into action, running from room to room quickly waking everyone in the house. The house, however, was over 50 years old and made of wood. Before we could do anything, the fire burned it out. Luckily, we all ran outside before the firetook hold of every room.I stood there shivering (发抖). I watched helplessly while my mom cried and my dad sighed (叹气). I wondered what was going to happen to us now that we lost all of our things.The things that matter aren’t things. I saw my older brother running across the bridge near our house to get help.I saw my oldest brother who was on his walking stick standing unsteadily on one leg. I saw my grandma and dad wrapped in each other’s arms and my mom holding our l ittle dog. I realized at that moment that we were all alive. Everything that was meaningful survived the fire. Our lives would continue. We would all be around to love each other for many years to come. And that was all that mattered.I still think of that fire in the night. It helped me to become who I am today. It showed me for the very first time what is truly meaningful in this life. It helped me to learn that the love we share is far more important than the things we own.Live your life for the things that matter, not for the things you own. Love others. Let the fire inside of you make this world a warmer place.34.

It will be dark, and the wind is blowing in the right direction. You agreed,Dr. Aronnax, to escape(逃跑)withme. Remember your promise!” I said nothing. “At nineo’clock,” continued NedLand, “I will go to the stairwith Conseil. You will wait in the library for our signal(信号). Ihave already put some food in the dinghy(小艇). Everything is done!”“The sea is quite rough,” I said.“Yes, but if we don’t go tonight, we will soon be too far from land!” I knew that he was right. I was also frightened. What would Captain Nemo do if he discovered our plan, or if we failed? I had notseen him for several days. Now, I did not want to see him. He might notice that I was nervous. I stayed in my room as the hours slowly passed.At seven o’clock, I had dinner in my room. Only twohours to go! I was so nervous that I felt sick. I had a headache. I walked up a nd down in my room. As I looked around, I saw that Captain Nemo’s bedroom door was open. The room was empty.It was eight o’clock, and I went to the dark library. As I waited, I felt a bump as the submarine(潜水艇)came to rest on the ocean floor.The library door opened, and Captain Nemo entered. He told me that we were in Vigo Bay. A Spanish admiral(海军上将)had burned his own ships there in 1702 to prevent the British Navy from taking the huge amount of gold they were carrying. He took me to the window.

From the passage, we know Dr. Aronnax was _________ that night.A. relaxedB. hopefulC. patientD. nervousDParrots have been known to repeat words, but have you ever thought how theycommunicate? New research has found that wild parrots are actually given names by theirparents.According to a study led by Karl Berg of Cornell University in the US, nestlings (雏鸟) are given a special sound of their own, which stays with them through their lives. In the study, the team placed hidden cameras in the nests of 17 different wild parrots. After studying their sounds, the team found the differences in the calls parents used to communicate with each baby parrot. And the baby birds seemed to know the calls.Sounds very similar to humans, doesn’t it?The study also proved that these different calls are made socially not genetically (基因上地).To do this, scientists switched th e eggs in nine of the 17 nests, so that half of the parrots were raising nestlings that weren’t theirs. Using the recordings, the scientists are sure that the nestlings all used names similar to those the parents (whether biological or non-biological) called them for the first weeks of their lives.Lucie McNeil, from National Geographic, said, “this would be the first proven example of a non-human species teaching acoustical (声学的)communication.”Karl Berg told National Public Radio of the US, “Most people say all those calls are just noise, but I think they’re having conversations.”Fox News also asked Berg what else the parrots might be saying. He replied, “They may decide where the food is or if they should go 3 km North-Northwest. These are sorts of argu ing or discussing.”You never know, if the science of animal translation keeps developing, we might one day be watching a reality show about parrots.42.What did Karl Berg and his team find in their study?A. Parents use different sounds to call each baby parrot.B. Parrots can repeat what people say easily.C. Parrots are similar to humans in many ways.D. Each parrot has a special sound for birth.43.
