Crowds lined the streets, cheering and waving. Fry rode west for 90 miles at full speed. He then passed a leather bag full of letters to another rider. Eventually a chain of riders carried the letters across nearly 2,000 miles of wilderness, and the Pony Express was born.Between California and the rest of the U.S. lay a vast wilderness. Mail service was slow and often delayed. As war among the states seemed likely, people wanted news more quickly.In December 1859, William Russell, owner of a transport company, decided to meet that need. He and partners William Waddell and Alexander Majors worked constantly for months. They selected a route from St. Joseph, Missouri, to Sacramento, California. Then they purchased 400 horses, hired workers and set up relay stations (导站)every 10 to 15 miles. Riders would change horses at these stations, and every 90 to 120 miles a new rider would take over.Shortly before Jonny Fry set out, another Pony Express rider set off from Sacramento for St. Joseph. These first deliveries reached their destinations in close to the 10 days Russell had promised.But the route was far from safe. On April 18, 1860, a rider’s horse stumbled (绊倒)and fell on the rider, killing him. Riders faced rivers, mountains, extreme temperatures-and very unfriendly natives.In May 1860,tensions between the settlers and Native Americans turned into fighting. Native Americans attacked several Pony Express stations, forcing some of them to close temporarily.Despite the risks, the Pony Express lost only one delivery during its one and a half years in operation. And when Abraham Lincoln was elected president, the Pony Express carried the news to California in only five days. It also spread news of the beginning of America's Civil War.The Pony Express service ended in October 1861 after a telegraph line across the U.S. was completed.Yet the riders' courage and accomplishments still hold a place in legend(传奇).56. The passage is mainly about the _____ of the Pony Express.A. functionB.influenceC. historyD. operation57. To _____, William Russell decided to set up the Pony Express.A. shorten the time of sending mailB. deliver mail farther and more safelyC. meet people's different needsD. help people keep in contact in war58. What might Russell have promised about the first deliveries?A. To make the destinations closer.B. To make the deliveries within 10 days.C. To ensure the deliveries with two riders.D. To complete the deliveries before the war.59. What can be learned from the passage?A. The Pony Express had an insignificant position in the development of mail service.B. The fighting between the settlers and Native Americans ended the Pony Express.C. The Pony Express became successful as a result of the dangers on the route.D. The Pony Express not only delivered mail but spread news as well.(B)Please Choose Cloud ServicesFinding the Cloud service can be difficult as there are so many available.Consumers need to consider and compare each service’s features, storage possibilities, free space and best price. You may be unsure, or you do not know where to begin. Trying every Cloud service would take a lot of time and work. But, the website might help.CloudDrop-box Google-Drive One-DriveBoxBest For LightweightUsersTeams AndCollaborationDevotedWindowsUsersEnterpriseSolutionsFree Storage Space2GB15GB15GB10GBCheapest PremiumOption1TB100GB100GB100GB One valuable feature is the protection of digital files, including photos, videos, documents, music and more. If the worst happens and your computer crashes, or gets lost or damaged, your files can still be found in the Cloud.Cloud services let you access your files from almost anywhere. No need to worry about a file stored on your computer when you are away from your desk. If you have an Internet connection, you can open your files from any computer, or from a phone, when they are stored using a Cloud service.Using a Cloud service makes sharing files easier. If you send documents to a group using emails, you may then wonder which version everyone is working with. When sharing files using a Cloud service, everyone will see the same document and the latest version.The first thing to consider is the amount of storage space you need. Check how much space you are currently using on your computer and mobile devices. If your computer or phone is filled with photos and you have little free space, you may want to move your photos to the Cloud. Some Cloud services are free. But, if you need a lot of space, you will probably need one that costs money.Even if everyone you have ever met is a Windows user, you still probably want a Cloud service that works with many platforms. You might become friends with anAndroid user or start a job with a company that computes on Apple!60. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Google-Drive users can obtain 100GB for free.B. Most Cloud services can send files to both the Cloud and the local computer.C. It's hard to transfer your file when you turn on the computer if it is stored in the Cloud.D. Never worry about finding your files in the Clouds if the computer system crashes.61. What will you have to do if you need more space to store more files in the Cloud?A. To use your own Cloud services.B. To share Cloud space with others.C. To spend money buying space.D. To buy the latest version of the service.62. How can consumers find the Cloud service that suits them best?A. By learning more information about the space occupied by files.B. By comparing Cloud’s function, storage, available space and prices.C. By sending files to a group of people via e-mail inquiring about the Cloud service.D.By making friends with Android users who use Apple computers.(C)Every day, Lucy Dong and her best friend Amy Zhu wake at 7 a.m. -- 7.10 a.m.If they are lucky---rush through their breakfast of steamed buns and noodles, and head off to what may be the best schooling system in the world.The 10-year-olds, who are natives of Shanghai, study in 35-minute bursts from around 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., with a small break for lunch -- and a class meeting --- sandwiched in the middle.Outside school hours, the girls' lives are lots of extra-curricular activities: English class, flute class, drumming class, handwriting class, calligraphy class, Taekwondo training, modelling lessons and choir practice.Shanghai was crowned --- for the second time …the champion of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA., which compares the maths, reading and science skills of some 510,000 secondary school students around the world).Some experts question the value of comparing cities and countries. Others point out that Shanghais relatively well-funded schools and well-paid teachers are not representative of the Chinese education system as a whole.Even so, the latest results are likely to see more and more educators flock east in search of the mega-city's magic formula.Professor Kong Lingshuai of the College of Education at Shanghai Normal University has studied the city'sPISA successes. He says that the secret is a mix of "traditional elements and modern elements". The former is related to the high expectations of "tiger" parents, and a belief in Chinese children from a young age that effort is crucial to gaining a good education. The "modern elements" include Shanghai's willingness to constantly adapt its curriculum and teaching practices; its focus on improving under-achieving schools by pairing them with those that excel; its openness to foreign ideas; and the introduction of performance-related pay.An obsession with training has also been the key, says Prof. Kong. As of last year, new teachers have to undergo a standardized, one-year training course before starting in the classroom. Once qualified, they are required to complete at least 240 hours' training in their first five years, including online learning, paper reading, essay writing and so on. Teachers are also encouraged to attend each other's classes to promote a culture of "idea sharing, exchanging and positive competition".Outsiders often dismiss China's education system as a pressure-cooker-style craze of exams that places too much emphasis on rote-learning and does little to stimulate creativity. But in Shanghai at least, that may be starting to change. Authorities are attempting to move away from testing that relies too heavily on memorizing facts and figures, and some schools are also giving students more time to play, rather than just study.63. The author mentions Lucy Dong and Amy Zhu in the first 3 paragraphs to ________.A. praise the industriousness of these two girlsB. give readers the whole picture of Chinese educationC. illustrate what education in Shanghai looks likeD. criticize the burden the education brings on them64. Why do some experts challenge the result that Shanghai ranked 1st in PISA test?A. Because the value of PISA, which only tests 510,000 students globally, is cast doubt on.B.Because Shanghai has drawn more attention and resources from the central government.C. Because only maths, reading and science skills are compared in PISA test, which is not enough.D. Because Shanghai has a better system of financial support for schools as well as for teachers.65. Which of the following is closest in meaning to "dismiss"in the last paragraph?A. To consider something inferior.B. To stop thinking about something.C. To give the credit for something.D. To claim the features of something.66. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Strict parents contribute little to the academic success of their children.B. Students have more free time to spend on their interest across China.C. Many education researchers are getting to Shanghai to study the phenomenon.D. Under-achieving schools are usually substituted by those academically superior schools.(D)A. Holidays are when my family gathers and has a good time together,B. School education has civilized me with a mind for peace and calm.C. My parents raised me with a lot of beliefs that have had an effect on who I am today.D. Summer is the time when we always organize some special events as a big family.E. However, I know that it is important to follow the golden rule and to treat others with dignity and respect.F. We take care of each other and try to treat others with respect.What Makes Me "Me"?My culture comes from where I am from and where I was raised. I am an American.I was born and raised in Alaska. My ethnic background is German, English, and Scottish. Culture is all about family. It is a family's belief systems, the cultural traditions that are celebrated, and the special holidays and events that occur in the year._____67_____These are the beliefs that don't just belong to my culture, but they come straight from the values of my family. I believe that women are more intelligent than men because my mother is a strong woman. I was raised to believe that through hard work I could become successful and have a good life. I strive to do this every day and to be good at my life and my jobs. I'm not really religious. _____ 68_____ I believe that if you are a good person to others you will be rewarded for it in many ways.There are a lot of cultural traditions that my family has. Some are from my cultural background and some are from the place where I was raised. I raise my son to have manners and to be well behaved. I raise him to know that hard work is important and that he is expected to put his best effort into things._____69_____We gather every summer in Haines so that all the cousins can grow up together. Birthdays were always important events while growing up. My mom was excited to celebrate every holiday. Trick or treating on Halloween, hiding baskets on Easter, passing out cards to classmates on Valentine's Day, wearing green on St. Patrick's Day, and of course loads of presents under the tree on Christmas morning. My parents always made holidays a big deal so now my son also gets to be excited for them every year.My culture makes me a person that celebrates life. My family has a lot of good friends and we are usually a good part of the community. ______70____ We like to go outdoors and have adventures. My belief systems, cultural traditions, and special events have made me a happy person who is fun to be around and who can have a positive impact on others.Keys31-35 JAFKE36-40 GCBHICloze41-45 ACDCB46-50 ADBDA 51-55 ACBDAReadingA:56-59 CABD B:60-62 DCB C:63-66 CDAC D:67-70 CEAF。

limitations live independently in their own homes.The Robot Activity Support System,or RAS,uses sensors installed in a WSU smart home to determine where its residents are,what they are doing and when they need assistance with dailyactivities.It navigates(定位)through rooms and around obstacles to find people on its own, provides video instructions on how to do simple tasks and can even lead its owner to objects like their medication or a snack in the kitchen.“RAS combines the convenience of a mobile robot with the activity detection technology of a WSU smart home to provide assistance in the moment,as the need for help is detected,”said Bryan Minor,a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.Currently,an estimated50percent of adults over the age of85need assistance with every day activities such as preparing meals and taking medication and the annual cost for this assistance in the US is nearly$2trillion.With the number of adults over85expected to triple by2050, researchers hope that technologies like RAS and the WSU smart home will relieve some of the financial strain on the healthcare system by making it easier for older adults to live alone.RAS is the first robot that researchers have tried to incorporate into their smart home environment.They recently published a study in the journal Cognitive Systems Research that demonstrates how RAS could make life easier for older adults struggling to live independently.“While we are still in an early stage of development,our initial results with RAS have been promising,”Minor said.“The next step in the research will be to test RAS’performance with a group of older adults to get a better idea of what prompts,video reminders and other preferences they have regarding the robot.”8.How does RAS serve elderly people?A.Through sensors.B.Through objects.C.Through a mobile robot.D.Through their daily activities.9.What can we know about RAS?A.It is the first robot used in daily life.B.Its function remains to be tested.C.It can locate people and do any task.D.It can cook for owners on its own.10.What’s Minor’s attitude toward the future of RAS?A.Doubtful.B.Negative.C.Optimistic.D.Uncertain.11.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Elderly people leave the nursing home.B.Smart Home Tests first elder-Care robot.C.RAS,the first robot to make home smart.D.Older adults have benefited from RAS.DWhat kind of amusing activities will you participate in during your life?Will you be spending your free time doing safe sports with little danger or will you always be one of the first people to try the next popular extreme activity?Scientists have been interested in finding out why some people seem to prefer dangerous activities.Although there are exceptions,researchers have found that in most cases men are less cautious than women.Men often try to impress women by proving that they are courageous andfearless,and they are more likely to take risks when women are watching them or when they are competing against other men.Research also shows that as people get older they usually behave more responsibly and avoid taking unnecessary risks.In addition,when people are in stable relationships,they seem to be less attracted to daring activities.Some people seem to be more daring than others,but there are many different types of risks and some people take one type of risk,but not another.Psychologists have identified a number of categories of risk.These include financial risks,risks related to health and safety,amusing risks and social risks.Psychologists discover that some people will take risks in one area,but not in another.Just if a person enjoys bungee(蹦极)jumping,it doesn’t mean he or she will take chances when investing(投资)money or that he will tell a joke to a group of strangers.Interestingly,research shows that women take more social risks than men.They are more likely to make career changes as they get older and to express unpopular opinions in business meetings.Yet,at the end of the day,the likelihood of particular people taking a risk depends on their personalities.In general,optimistic people are more likely to take risks because they focus on the possible positive outcomes of their actions.On the other hand,those with opposite personality are much more likely to avoid taking a chance.12.Why do men try to prove they are brave according to the research?A.To attract people’s attention.B.To take on more responsibility.C.To make favorable impressions on people.D.To develop stable relationships with others.13.What does the example of bungee jumping indicate?A.People take one type of risk but not another.B.There are more than one type of risk.C.Bungee jumping is dangerous but popular.D.Some people are more courageous than others.14.What have researchers discovered about women?A.They are willing to take social risks.B.They are always changing Jobs.C.They are good at doing business.D.They are usually more conservative than men.15.What mainly determine whether people take risks possibly?A.Their personalities.B.Their financial conditions.C.Their social relationships.D.Their expectations of outcomes.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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,选项中有两项为多余选项。
河南省镇平县第一高级中学2024-2025学年高一英语上学期第一次月考试题第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的A B C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
AMiddle School Laboratory(试验室) Safety RulesScience is about discovering and exploring the natural world.Explorations (探究)can occur (发生)in the classroom,laboratory or field. As part of your science lessons, you will take part in many activities using many different materials, equipment and chemicals, which can be dangerous if not used correctly. As a result, you may be faced with biological(生物学的),chemical or physical hazards.Safety is THE MOST IMPORTANT thing. The following safety rules have been developed for the protection and safety of everyone.★Behave yourself in a responsible way at all times. Risky (危急的)behavior such as throwing things and doing experiments without teachers' instructions (指令) is not allowed.★Eating, drinking, chewing gum(口香糖),wearing make﹣up(化妆品),touching contact lenses(隐形眼镜) or other unsafe activities are not allowed.★Do not enter or work in the laboratory unless an instructor(老师) is present.★Never enter areas where chemicals are kept.★Taking any chemicals or equipment away from the classroom or laboratory is not allowed.The safety rules must be followed at all times.Review these rules with your teacher and parents, then sign and get the signature(签名)of a parent. Thesignature shows that you understand the lab can be dangerous,and that you have read the rules and agree to follow them at all times. Signatures are needed before you can go on with any lab or science classroom activity.(1)What does the underlined word "hazards" probably mean in Paragraph 1?A. Illnesses.B. Examinations.C. Dangers.D. Experiments.(2)Which of the following might be allowed in the lab?A. Drinking soda.B. Wearing glasses.C. Having breakfast.D. Taking away chemicals.(3)What should students do after reading the rules?A. Sign to agree to the rules.B. Get a teacher's signature.C. Take a test on safety rules.D. Go on with lab activities.BMost heroes are not super. They don't appear in comic books(漫画书), on television,or in movies. They just do what they believe needs to be done to make their worlda better place. Bike Batman is one of them.Bike Batman is a 30﹣year﹣old married engineer who lives in Seattle,Washington. He's a cyclist who also buys and sells bikes as a hobby.About three years ago, he was looking for a bike for his wife. He found one on Craigslist, a website where people list things they want to sell. As he often does, he also looked on Bike Index, a popular website that allows users to register (登记)their bikes and post reports when they're stolen. The bike,which he was considering purchasing(购买), clearly matched the one reported stolen on Bike Index.Then he called the person who claimed(声称) to be the bike's owner and arranged (支配)to meet him一supposedly (可能)to complete the sale. When the two men met, Bike Batman told the thief, "You've got two choices. You can wait until a police officer gets here, or you can just get out of here." You can imagine what the thief did.After that first success,Bike Batman developed a safer routine(常规).When he sees questionable(可疑的) bike ads on Craigslist, he cross﹣refers(相互参照) the images with bikes reported on Bike Index.Once he confirms(证明)the bike with the owner,he will arrange(支配) a meet﹣up with the thief and will call the Settle police department so that officers can participate (参与)in the action. In more than half of the 22 cases in which he has got back and returned bikes, the thieves have been arrested(逮捕).In one case, Bike Batman even helped a family recover (重新获得)a wide range of prized possessions (财产) that suspects(嫌疑犯) had stolen during a home burglary(入室盗窃).His nickname(外号) came from a discussion with a police officer who suggested he be called "Robin Hood".Since he wasn't exactly stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, "Batman" seemed a better fit.The idea of a superhero punishing criminals(罪犯) feels pretty silly to him, but the main reason he continues his work is to keep up Seattle's reputation (名声)as a friendly city.(1)Who is Bike Batman?A. He is a superhero.B. He is a website manager.C. He is a Seattle citizen(市民).D. He is a police officer.(2)When Bike Batman discovers a questionable bike,he will first .A. contact the owner of the stolen bikeB. look up the bike's informationC. call the police departmentD. arrange to meet the thief(3)Why does Bike Batman help find the lost bikes?A. To become famous.B. To help poor people.C. To punish bike thieves.D. To build a friendly city.(4)What can we learn from the passage?A. Bike Batman felt grateful to see the thieves arrested(逮捕).B. Bike Batman began his good deeds by accident.C. The police failed to perform their duties.D. The thieves refused to return the bikes.CIf your child has mobile Internet access,it will be more difficult to monitor (监督)and control his or her Internet use. Kids are turning to the Internet for everything from hanging out with friends to shopping,which makes it harder for parents to keep track of their online activities. Fortunately,there are many choices for controlling what your kids see on their computers,laptops,and mobile devices(设备).Content blockers(内容拦截器) and filters (过滤器)are great tools to use for younger kids. They allow you more control over where they go and what they do online. A content(内容) blocker can block some unhealthy websites or limita child's search to the kind of sites. A content filter can scan sites and pictures and block those sites that contain certain words,key phrases,or contents.Consider tracking (追踪)software(软件) for older teenagers. This software enables you to see which sites your children have visited,tracking their path online. This tool gives young people more freedom to explore the Internet,but it also allows you to check that they are using the Internet responsibly. Let your teenagers know that you trust them,but that you will be regularly checking that they are visiting appropriate (适当的)sites online.Even if you use content blockers,filters,and trackers,you know that a lot of kids figure out (想出)ways to get around these,so it's important to remain alert(警惕的).Remember that not all adult sites can be identified(识别) by blocker,filter,or tracker software. That's why it's important to talk to your kids about what to do when something inappropriate or scary(可怕的) comes up. Nothing can replace involvement and supervision(监督)by adults. Keep monitoring how your kids use the Internet on a regular basis without getting into the role of the Internet traffic police.(1)What is the passage mainly about?A.More and more kids have mobile Internet access.B.Some choices for monitoring and controlling kids' Internet use.C.It is difficult to monitor and control kids' Internet use.D.Kids are turning to the Internet for everything.(2)How should parents monitor and control younger kids' Internet use?A.With tracking software.B.With tracking software and content blockers and filters.C.With content blockers and filters.D.With filters and trackers.(3)The third paragraph is about .A.how to monitor and control older teenagers' Internet useB.how to monitor and control younger kids' Internet useC.tracking softwareD.content blockers and filters(4)Parents should remain alert when they monitor kids' Internet usebecause .A.content blockers,filters,and trackers are uselessB.lots of kids figure out ways to get around content blockers,filters,and trackersC.not all adult sites can be identified by blocker,filter,or tracker softwareD.nothing can replace involvement and supervision by adultsDWe are what we eat.That is an old expression,but one worth knowing.A recent look at diets around the world shows that people who eat healthy food﹣and not too much of it﹣live longer.But which areas of the world have the best diets?Researchers found that foods in some of the healthiest diets﹣ Mediterranean diet,New Nordic diet,Japanese diet and French diet﹣may be very different,but they are all heavy on local and seasonal foods,which include more vegetables and seafood and less red meat.Mediterranean diet contains lots of fruits,vegetables,whole grains(谷物),nuts (坚果)and olive oil.The diet has proper amounts of fish and poultry (家禽肉).Red meat and foods high in sugar and salt are not big parts of this diet.New Nordic diet has whole grains like oats and rye,vegetables such as carrots,broccoli and eggs,seafood,fruits,oil,low﹣fat milk and cheese.Sugary desserts are not common in this diet.Japanese people are some of the longest living people on the planet,with women up to 87 years old and men up to 80.The Japanese diet is the reason for such lengths of life.The diet has many foods that are low in calories(卡路里) and high in nutrients(养分物).Japanese people eat a lot of seaweed,tofu,vegetables and fish.The tradition there is to stop eating when your stomach feels 80 percent full.However,French people eat fatty foods but do not get fat.And they live a long time.This phenomenon is called the "French Paradox".The reason why the French eat fatty foods without getting fat may be simple.They eat less.Serving sizes in French restaurants and of products sold in stores are smaller than those in most countries.And generally speaking,most French people do not snack(吃点心).This means they do not eat food between meals.(1)What do we know about the healthiest diets around the world?A.They contain(包含) abundant (丰富的)calories.B.They tend(倾向) to be expensive.C.They share certain similarities.D.They reflect(反映) popular tastes.(2)What is considered as a harmful eating habit in Japanese tradition?A.Going low in calories.B.Eating to the fullest.C.Having much seafood.D.Picking many foods.(3)How does the author(作者) develop the central idea in the last 4 paragraphs?A.By building connections(联系).B.By exploring reasons.C.By listing examples.D.By analyzing(分析) figures(数字).(4)Which can be the most suitable title for the text?A.What is the healthiest diet on earth?B.How does the old expression serve?C.Why is a healthy diet so important?D.Where can we feed ourselves well?其次节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Where is the material probably from?A. Health magazineB. Scientific reportC. Education journalD. Travel guideBPeople love Shakespeare’s vocabulary and creativity. He used at least 15,000 words in his writing! But Bible’s Old Testament (旧约圣经) only contains 5,642 words, Shakespeare also invented many new terms and phrase.If someone’s behavior suggested they were not honest and should not be trusted, Shakespeare called them suspicious. If someone was ridiculous and perhaps looked like a fool, Shakespeare found their actions laughable. And for those who offered their opinions on something’s quality, Shakespeare called them critics (评论家). Today, for instance, food critics and film critics give their opinions on food and film.The familiar phrase “break the ice” comes from Shakespeare’s play The Taming of the Shrew. The “ice is broken” when people in a group, who have never met before, begin to talk to each other by doing some activities. More common words were first used by Shakespeare including “road”, “gossip”, “lonely”, “bump” and “hurry”.Four hundred years after his death. Shakespeare surely lives on, in everyday speech, as the most famous writer of all time.5.Shakespeare’s writings contain ________.A.over 15,000 words B.less than 15,000 wordsC.only 5,642 words D.less than 5,642 words6.Which of following can replace the underlined word “suspicious” on Paragraph 2?A.meaningful B.doubtful C.thoughtful D.powerful 7.Whose actions are considered laughable from Paragraph 2?A.Dishonest people’s B.Silly people’sC.Food critics’D.Film critics’8.What may be the best title for the text?A.Famous Words in English PlaysB.Shakespeare’s Influence on EnglishC.The Famous Writer --- ShakespeareD.Shakespeare’s Great LifeCPeople believe that every word has its correct meaning(s). When we are not sure, we usually check online, or turn to our teachers or dictionaries. But do you know how dictionaries were made in the past?First, dictionary writers read the important books of the period or the subject that the dictionary was about. As they read, they copied necessary information on cards: interesting words, common words—both in their daily uses and unusual uses, and also the sentences where they were used. That is to say, the words, along with the uses of each word, were collected. Fora really big dictionary, millions of such cards were collected. This task could last for years. After the cards were collected, they were put in alphabetical order(A—Z). When this was done, there would be several hundred cards for each single word.Then, to define(定义)a word, the dictionary writer placed its hundreds of cards before him. He read the cards closely, threw away some, read the rest again, and divided up the cards according to what he thought were the common uses of the word. Finally, he wrote the definitions, following the hard-and-fast rule: each definition must come from an example on a certain card in front of him.So, the writing of a dictionary was not a task of inventing meanings of words, but a task of recording their meanings. The writer of a dictionary was a historian, not a law maker.As time develops, the way of producing dictionaries has greatly changed. Nowadays, we can use online dictionaries too. When choosing dictionary.Howevering or writing, we can be guided by the dictionary.However, we cannot be controlled by it, because new situations, new experiences, new inventions, and new feelings are always pushing us to give new uses to old words.9. Which shows the correct steps of how dictionaries were made in the past?A.①—③—④—②B.①—②—④—③C.③—①—④—②D.③—④—②—①10. What can we learn from the passage about dictionary writing in the past?A. It was long-time hard work.B. It was a task of inventing and recording.C. It should be done by historians.D. It had to use the law-making rules.11. What does the writer advise us to do when we choose words in communication?A. Try to create new words.B. Follow the dictionary strictly.C. Use online dictionaries instead.D. Be open to the new uses of words.DWhen I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticedthis one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note — “Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery” — and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically (魔术般) appear.All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house. Sometimes when it was too cold outside, we just put the box indoors so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch (门廊) . Every so often my son’s friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.12. Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer to __________.A. show a magic trickB. pay for the deliveryC. satisfy his curiosityD. please his mother13. What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy’s house?A. He wanted to have tea there.B. The milk had to be put indoors every time.C. He was related to the family.D. He was trusted by the family.14. Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?A. Nobody wants to be a milkman now.B. It has been driven out of the market.C. Its service is getting poor.D. It is not allowed by law.15. Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?A. He missed the good old days.B. He wanted to tell interesting stories.C. He needed it for his milk bottles.D. He planted flowers in it.第二节七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

After many hoursof waiting patiently in the hall of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready.As she walked slowly to the elevator, I provided a true description of her tiny room, including the old sheets that had been hung on her window. "I love it. " she said with the happiness of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy."Mrs Jones, you haven't seen the room…, just wait. ""That doesn't matter. " she replied. "Happiness is something you decide ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged. It's how I arranged my mind. I have already decided to love it. It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open, I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away. "She went on to explain, "Old age is like a bank account. You take what you've put in. So, my advice to you would be to put in a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories. Thank you for your part in filling my memory bank. "And witha smile, she said," All my memories are happy ones. "21.

However, have you ever thought whether it is the right way of cooking instant noodles?When we first took out the noodles, we can notice that the noodles are joined together nicely as a piece. However, few people know that when the instant noodles are made, wax coating (蜡涂层) will be put on the noodles. The wax coating on the instant noodles is used to prevent the noodles from sticking together. It makes the noodles look very nice.Researches have shown that the wax coating on the noodles is quite harmful (有害的) to our health. If you eat the instant noodles today, you'd better wait for several days before you eat instant noodles next time since our bodies need about 3 days to clear the wax coating away from our bodies. Do you know the consequence (结果) of having too much wax coating inour bodies? It will lead to cancer if the wax coating is stored in our bodies for a long time.So it is very important to wash away the wax coating on the instant noodles if we don't want our bodies to be in danger. You can do like this: 1. Wash the instant noodles with warm water first, and then pour away the water containing the wax coating. 2. Repeat Step 1 and try to stir (搅动) the noodles to wash away the wax coating on the noodles before cooking it in a new pot of water.I hope this passage will make those who enjoy eating instant noodles and eat the instant noodles often know about the hidden danger of instant noodles. Although the instant noodles are very easy to cook and help us save a lot of time, I still don't think it healthy to eat them too often or too much. Why not say "No" to instant noodles and have some healthy food?28. People use wax coating when making instant noodles to .A. make the instant noodles more deliciousB. stop the noodles from sticking togetherC. help keep the noodles from going badD. make it easy to cook the instant noodles29.

Because enjoying instant noodles will take the bodies a long time.C. Because their bodies will need instant noodles several days later.D. Because doing this can prevent people getting tired of instant noodles.30.

What does the author call on people to do?A. Learn how to choose the right instant noodles.B. Take instant noodles as breakfast every morning.C. Eat instant noodles as soon as they buy them.D. Have healthy food instead of instant noodles.DMany people turn to doctors or self-help books, but they ignore (忽视) a powerful thing that could help them fight illness: their friends.Researchers are only now starting to pay attention to the importance of friendship in health.A 10-year Australian study found that old people with a large circle of friends were 22 percentless likely to die during the study period than those with fewer friends. A large 2007 study showed an increase of nearly 60 percent in the risk (风险) for obesity (肥胖) among people whose friends gained weight. And last year, Harvard researchers reported that strong social ties could improve brain health as we age."In general, the role (作用) of friendship in our lives isn't well realized," said Rebecca, a professor at the University of North Carolina. "Friendship has a bigger effect on our psychological (心理的) health than family relationships. "While (尽管) many friendship studies are about the close relationships of women, some research shows that men can benefit, too. In a six-year study of 736 middle-aged men, having friendships reduces the risk of heart attack. Only smoking was as important a risk factor (因素) as having little social support.Exactly why friendship has such a big effect isn't entirely (完全) clear. While friends can send a sick person to the hospital or pick up medicine, the benefits go well beyond physical assistance. Friendship clearly has a big psychological effect. "People with stronger friendships feel like there is someone they can turn to," said Karen, a doctor. "The message of these studies is that friends make your life better. "32. The three studies in the second paragraph show that .A. old people need friends the mostB. friends can help us lose weightC. social ties are connected to healthD. more friends make us healthier33.
