He had stopped his car to have some food when he started to hear strange noises. Turning on the headlights, he saw an 8-foot-tall creature covered in thick, dark hair. The creature stared at him for a minute, turned in the road and walked off slowly into the woods.In the past 50 years alone, there have been thousands of reported sightings of similar creatures in the US, Canada, the Himalayas(喜马拉雅山)and even Hubei Province in China. The creature is known as bigfoot.Bigfoot is said to be a very tall(between 2 and 4. 5 metres), ape-like(类人猿似的)creature that is covered in hair and walks upright on two legs. It is very wary(警惕的)of human beings.Believers think bigfoot is a direct descendent(后代)of ancient gigantopithecus(巨猿). But it remain s one of the planet’s undiscovered secrets. There is a little evidence(证据)to support the believers’ theory: traces of hair, footprints and body prints as well as the reported sightings. Some people have even showed what they say with photos or films of bigfoot.But so far, no one has found bones or any other definite proof that the giant creature exists.As a result many people believe the evidence is just part of a big trick. The footprints are easy to make and they say: all you need to do is to make two large feet out of plaster(石膏), attach them to the bottom of your shoes and walk with big steps. As for the photos and films, they are just people dressed in ape suits.They also say the sightings are not real, just people making mistakes. For example, bigfoot could be a bear living in the wild that sometimes stands up on its back legs.5．So far what we can be sure about is that_______.A. there exist savages(野人)in several places in the worldB. there are some traces of hair, footprints and body prints of the “bigfoot”C. bigfoot is a direct descendent of ancient gigantopithecusD. all the big foot discovered have the same look6．It was in______ that man first found the ape-like creature.A. 1999B. the 1960’sC. the 1950’sD. the 1940’s7．We can infer from the article that some people _______bigfoot’s existence.A. may fool the world into believingB. have definite evidences to proveC. refuse to believeD. will soon offer proofs of8．If bigfoot is just a misunderstanding, what they saw might NOT be________.A. apesB. bearsC. gigantopithecusD. people dressed in animal skinsNew Way to Experience DentistryHave you ever had your hand held during a dental procedure you feel uneasy about? What about a dental office that mimics（模仿） the spirit of Disneyland? If you're looking for a dental office that provides the best care and the best environment, you're looking for Dr．Licking's office in Sunnyvale.Officer manager Judy, who has worked with Dr．Licking for 38 years, speaks highly of his kindness．She believes that the office is “the Disneyland of dentistry”．Everyone from children to their grandparents loves the environment and care they receive from this welcoming office. Dr．Licking is known as the best dental care provider for anyone who fears facing appointments with the dental office．The staff goes out of their way to make patients feel comfortable and at ease．Dr．Licking and Judy set the standard with their saying, “when someone comes to your home, you stand up and welcome them, like an old family friend.”Dr．Licking's office has all．They recently relocated to put the new equipment into their practice．The office is equipped with an intra-oral video camera, and as a patient you can get pictures of your teeth as you're walking out the door.Setting himself apart from other dentists, Dr．Licking continues his education beyond what is required．For this reason, he is one of few dentists in the country who offers ozone treatment．Ozone can naturally stop decay (蛀蚀) in its tracks．For more information on this new technology, visit their website at . Dr．Licking's office is Diamond Certified, an honor given only to companies with the higher quality after extensive and continual research．Dr．Licking's office extends an invitation to you to meet their gentle staff and offers you a free office visit, including x-rays and an exam.The office holds extended hours ranging from 7 a．m．to 8 p, m., Monday through Thursday．Don't worry if you have an emergency．Dr．Licking’s office responds to all emergencies and urgent calls.JOHN LICKING, D.D.S.Cosmetic & Family Dentistry since 1970408—736—6235877 W.Fremont Ave．Suite C3, Sunnyvale9．What is special about the dental office?A．It has a caring environment.B．It is decorated like Disneyland.C．It uses the most advanced equipment.D．It provides service for both kids and old people.10．What do we know about Dr．Licking?A．He has developed ozone treatment.B．He is the best dentist all over the country.C．He has been studying dentistry continuously.D．He has worked as a dentist for nearly 38 years.11．The passage is written to ______.A．introduce a famous dentistB．show a new treatment for tooth decayC．advise people to have their teeth examed D．invite people to visit Dr．Licking's officeIn Los Angeles, drivers spend sixty-one hours every year stuck in traffic. These drivers know all too well how bad the traffic can be. “There’re too many cars, and you can’t move around a lot.”Professor Cyrus Shahabi also knows about traffic jams. He lives more than 65 kilometers from his office at the University of Southern California, in Los Angeles. He is always late even with the help of a navigation (导航) system.He decided to develop a program called ClearPath for that. He says his program uses historical data to predict traffic conditions even before the driver leaves the house. “What’s unique (独特的) isthat we use a lot of data that’s currently become available including traffic data, weather data, and we analyze that so that we can predict what’s going to happen in front of you when leave home.”Professor Shahabi says his system does more than just answer current traffic conditions. With ClearPath, he says, a driver can decide what time he wants to leave, and ClearPath will give thefastest route. It looks at the entire road network, including surface streets as well as highways, before the driver hits the road. Professor Shahabi hopes to have ClearPath available nationwide and overseas once they can collect traffic data from other cities.“I always thought that Los Angeles had the worst traffic, but now I know that Shanghai, Beijing, Seoul, Tokyo, believe it or not, Singapore,Hong Kong certainly are examples that can immediately use this.”Professor Shahabi hopes to share this new technology with companies that already have navigation systems, such as Google and Apple. 12．Professor Cyrus Shahabi is often late for work because of ________.A. his living far awayB. his car’s navigation systemC. bad traffic conditionsD. too many cars in his university13．What is unique about ClearPath?A. It helps drivers know the road conditions ahead of time.B. It can make sure that you will never be late for work.C. It helps drivers see clearly what happens on the road.D. It can use a lot of information and data all over the world. 14．The underlined word “ hits” in the fourth paragraph probably means ________.A. has accidentB. gets toC. turns left or rightD. collects traffic data15．What’s Professor Shahabi’s attitude toward his invention?A. Proud.B. Worried.C. Disappointed.D. Optimistic.完形填空My heart beat with that feeling, like blood to my body as my fingers flew across the piano keys．As the piece neared the end, I up to take my final bow．For a second, the room was ．Yet, even in that one second, I had enough time to whether I had done perfectly．Then, , the applause (掌声) came.“Thank you… so much,” I said, to the person standing on my other side．Olga, my piano teacher for six years, smiled back at me．“You’ve been an . student all these years,” she said, “I hope that whatever you do, you never stop .”I leaned forward, I would keep playing because I loved piano, and hugged her.As it , the promises weren’t as meaningful as I’d hoped． Right after the , I kept up my strict practicing schedule every day． , it began slipping away from me．The reason I had stopped taking was because of my busy schedule with homework．Not long after, I stopped practicing altogether．It was not to have to stress about piano anymore．But something was inside of me．I was empty inside.One day I met Michelle, who had also taken piano lessons from Olga.“Are you taking lessons from Olga?” she asked.“Actually I just quit a while ago,” I replied.“That’s a ,” she responded, “I remember your performance a year ago; it was .”Two days after talking to Michelle, I was at a what to do．I moved slowly into the living room unconsciously, but in fact I knew what I was doing.As the music , a familiar feeling rose inside me.16．A． showed B． sat C． stood D． looked 17．A． light B． quiet C． colorful D． nervous 18．A． expect B． remind C． know D． doubt 19．A． immediately B． successfully C． hopefully D． suddenly 20．A． turning B． waving C． running D． pointing 21．A． easy-going B． imaginative C． amazing D． honest 22．A． practising B． learning C． competing D． gaining 23．A． telling B． promising C． admitting D． speaking 24．A． carried on B． brought up C． turned out D． taken in25．A． performance B． final C． presentation D． play 26．A． Soon B． Besides C． Thus D． Instead 27．A． lectures B． parts C． lessons D． pieces 28．A． disappointing B． pleasing C． inspiring D． puzzling 29．A． beating B． rising C． changing D． shining 30．A． still B． even C． much D． yet 31．A． shame B． relief C． pleasure D． deal 32．A． challenging B． breathtaking C． demandingD． embarrassing33．A． time B． heart C． dream D． loss 34．A． normally B． exactly C． unclearly D． badly 35．A． ended B． hit C． covered D． spread 36．短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）假英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

( 共10小题；每小题3分，满分30分)How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments－mostly for entertainment purposes－is fair and respectful?Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats. Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.Zoos claim(声称) to educate people and save endangered species, but visitors leave zoos w ithout having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range(分布区). The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs.The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusual and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis (动物精神病). A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered．Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats, Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild．Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.21．How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoos?A．Dangerous.B．Unhappy.C．Natural.D．Easy.22．In the state of zoochosis, animals _________.A．remain in cagesB．behave strangelyC．attack other animalsD．enjoy moving around23．What does the author try to argue in the passage?A．Zoos are not worth the public support.B．Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.C．Zoos should treat animals as human beings.D．Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.24．The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _________.A．pointing out the faults in what zoos doB．using evidence he has collected at zoosC．questioning the way animals are protectedD．discussing the advantages of natural habitats25．Although he argues against zoos, the author would still agree that __________.A．zoos have to keep animals in small cagesB．most animals in zoos are endangered speciesC．some endangered animals are reproduced in zoosD．it’s acceptable to keep animals away from their habitats任务型阅读（E =AB. F=BC. G= CD）Is technology making us unhealthy? 26 Many people think high—tech products have affected us because we spend more time playing on computers, watching TV and using our mobile phones to talk, text and play games.Our bodies: Levels of obesity are rising, especially young children. 27 Many people, especially teenagers, like sitting in front of TV sets or computers for hours, just watching or playing games. As a result, they do less exercise.Our brains: Research into the effects on the human brain while playing computer games is ongoing. Recent studies have looked at the impact on beta brainwave activity, which is important for emotional development, planning and self-control. Though we haven’t evidence to show how it affects us, researchers think that tiredness may affect the levels of beta brainwave activity, and sitting in front of a TV set or computer for a long time easily causes one to feel tired. 28__Communication: As leading computer game consumers, are we spending too much time in front of computers? 29__What effect does this have on our lives?It certainly seems that children today are spending more time indoors than their parents did when they were young. 30__Today, empty parks clearly show how “play time” has changed because of advances in affordable technology like home computers.班级__________ 姓名__________ 学号__________ 分数________________A.Are computers affecting our health?B.But thi s isn’t just a problem about what we eat.C. We have no evidence to show how it affects us though.D. Children used to play in the streets or in parks regularly.E. We can only use computers to play games instead of doing other things.F. So parents should control the time their children spend on the computer.G.

The Pierces，Australian experts in body language，give an amusing explanation of the question in their newly published book Adam’s Brain, Eve’s Brain．■ Why do women like chatting while men prefer “saying to themselves”?It is because a man’s brain is so well districted(分区)that all the input information is sorted and stored in certain areas while a woman’s doesn’t keep information this way，so that all the problems come forth at once．Consequently，when required to solve a problem，a man will say “Let me think it over” and then sit silently(or “talking inside”)and emotionlessly until he finds the answer；on the other hand，the only way out for a woman is to pour it out．■ Why does a man often hide his feelings?It is from a traditional custom and continuously strengthened by the social circumstances that a man should be brave and not show weakness，that is，a man should be “manly”．If a man shows his feelings such as shedding tears or complaining of his bad luck，or jumping and shouting with joy，he is considered sissy or womanly．The education a man receives from a child is that he should control his feelings．This always puzzles a woman，who takes it for granted that one cries when sad, laughs when happy．When a woman sees a man down，she will go up to help，which is almost sure to hurt him because he thinks he is considered weak or pitiful．■ The woman likes hearing“I love you”, but why is the man unwilling to say it?It is not so difficult for a woman to say “I love you”, because her brain structure fills her world with feelings，emotions，communication and language．A woman can easily sense whether her feeling is friendship or love while a man can’t tell desire from love．Maybe what he does now is that he can’t quit this girl．A man do esn’t know he falls in love until several years passes．A woman is always the first one to know whether love exists，so in most cases it is the woman who ends the relationship．56．What causes men to keep silent but women to talk a lot?A．That men’s brain is well-organized while women’spoorly-organized．B．That men hate showing weakness while women are rich in emotions．C．That men are slow in expression while women strong in oral language．D．That men like saying to themselves while women like sharing their feelings．57．The underlined word “This” (in Para．4)refers to__________．A．men’s controlling their feelings B．the traditional custom C．men’s being considered sissy D．men’s strange behavior(行为)58．In which aspect can we infer a woman is stronger than a man according to the Pierces?A．Thinking independently B．Controlling her feelings C．Communication D．Telling different feelings 59．According to the Pierces，once a man says “love” to a girl，___________．A．it is certainly not love B．it is not necessarily love C．it shows he really loves her D．he knows he can’t quit her60．The purpose of this passage is_____________．A．to explain an interesting phenomena B．to introduce a bookC．to present a new research D．to tell strange stories BI found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk. Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked asif I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.72. The story took place exactly ________.A. in the teacher’s officeB. in an exam roomC. in the schoolD. in the language lab73. The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because ________.A. she had not brought a pen with herB. she had lost her own on her way to schoolC. there was something wrong with her ownD. her own had been taken away by someone74. The thing(s) emphasized in her talk was (were) ________.A. honestyB. sense of dutyC. seriousnessD. all of the above75. The boy knew everything ________.A. the moment he was asked to stay behindB. when the teacher started talking about honestyC. only some time laterD. when he was walking out of the room Unit8 Tuesday—Oct2People from different cultures sometimes do things that make each other uncomfortable without meaning to or sometimes without even realizing it .

It is oneof the most important natural and historical areasin Florida. Paynes Prairie is located nearGainesville. It is large, 21,000 acres. Thisprotected land is called a preserve. The Florida ParkService manages the preserve.The Paynes Prairie basin was formed when limestone dissolved and the ground settled. It is covered by marsh（沼）and wet prairie vegetation. There are areas of open water. During brief periods it has flooded enough to be considered a lake. Except for that, the basin has changed little through time.Man has lived on Paynes Prairie a very long time. He lived there as far back as 10,000 B. C. At one time, the Seminoles lived there. The prairie is thought to have been named after King Payne, a Seminole chief. During the late 1600s, the largest cattle ranch in Florida was on Paynes Prairie . Today , Paynes Prairie is preserved land . It is occupied byvisitors and Florida Park Service employees.Willam Bartram visited Paynes Prairie. Bartram was the first person who portrayed（described）nature through personal experience as well as scientific observation. He lived 200 years ago. He visited Paynes Prairie in 1774. At that time he described it. He called Paynes Prairie the “great Alachua Savannah.”Most of the animal life, which Bartram described, is still here. A large number of sandhill cranes, hawks and waterfowl are here in winter. The animal diversity is increased by the presence of pine flat woods, hammock, swamps and ponds.The Paynes Prairie Preserve State Park is open year round. The Florida Park Service works hard so that the park will appear as it did in the past. It offers many opportunities for recreation. At the Park you can camp and picnic. You can hike and bike. You can boat and fish. You can ride on horse trails. And you can see lots of nature and wildlife. You can see Florida as it was in the early days.Paynes Prairie is a part of our Florida history. It is an example of our Florida natural resources. It is a place for recreation. Paynes Prairie is an important experience of the Real Florida.64．How was the Paynes Prairie basin formed?A．By the Seminole IndiansB．By the Florida Park Service.C．From dissolved limestone and the ground settling.D．From lost of flooding and wet prairie vegetation.65．The underlined word“diversity”means“”.A．variety B．society C．population D．area66．All of the following are true EXCEPT that .A．Paynes Prairie has changed little through timeB．Paynes Prairie is covered by wet prairie grassesC．there used to be a big cattle farm on Paynes Prairies.D．William Bartram was the first person to visit Paynes Prairie. 67．The purpose of the passage is to .A．call on people to protect wildlifeB．attract people to this preserved parkC．show you the formation of Paynes PrairieD．introduce the recorded history of Paynes PrairieBAlthough emailing is very convenient, there are a number of problems to be in mind. For example, many business people receive more than 100 emails every day. Because they must also make telephone calls, attend meetings, write reports and so on, they may not be able to spend much time reading and replying to emails.It is necessary to keep your emails short and to the point.Make sure that you have a suitable heading in the subject line sothat the reader will want to read your message. Many emails are left aside unread because of the lack of time.Make sure that you have given all the time and place of a meeting.Do answer emails immediately and exactly. If you can not give the information requested, then reply with “Thanks for your message. I’ll get back to you yuiop.” Then make sure that you do!Use the subject line to indicate what the message is about. Because emails already have the person’s name in the heading, it is not necessary to start your message with “Dear…”. Although the language in emails is often quite informal, writing in sentences and correct use of grammar and punctuation(标点)，including capital letters, is important. For example, “the meeting in Harbin on Monday 11th December”does not givea good impression.67. What do we get mainly from the text after reading?A. Suggestions for writing emails.B. Ways of replying to emails.C. Examples of writing emails.D. Useful information about emails.68. When writing an email, you should do the following except __________.A. keeping it short and informativeB. writing the subjectC. starting with “Dear…”D. writing correct sentences 69.The last example in the passage doesn’t give a good impressionbecause _________.A. it is quite informalB. readers cannot understand it at allC. it pays no attention to punctuation and capital lettersD. it gives readers wrong use on grammar and spelling70. The underlined word “yuiop” means ______.A. laterB. quicklyC. clearlyD. latelyUnit8 Thursday—Oct4The __1__ picked up the thermos and poured some hot water into the tea-cup and placed it on the small table in front of his __2__, who werea father and daughter, and put the lid on the cup with a clink.

Yes, cold is hot.Many doctors believe they can reduce the lasting forever damage after a stroke by quickly dropping patient body temperatures for a day or two, basically storing their brains on ice. “It's like putting food in the refrigerator. It doesn't go bad. You slow down all the processes.” says Dr David Tong of Stanford University.The approach is new, but the understanding behind it—that coldprotects the brain like a fridge keeps tomatoes--has been recognized for centuries.Everyone knows a story of a child who falls into an icy pond is fished out after 45 minutes and then is warmed up and is perfectly OK. The cold water stops biological processes that ordinarily would kill brain cells almost immediately. Performed occasionally in surgery, cooling the sick is still considered too risky and unpleasant and impractical for the 700, 000 strokes in the US each year. Instead, researchers put their faith in medicines. But that goal has been all too difficult to catch as dozens of supposedly brain-protecting drugs failed testing over that past ten years.Now, supported by fresh science and new technology, doctors are looking again at cold. They hope soon to prove it a workable and valuable first step for treating stroke victims.In theory, doctors say, cooling the head should slow or even stop the destruction of weak brain cells. Several experiments have indicated this might be the case.Currently the whole body must be cooled, using air-cooled blankets and sometimes packing in ice or rubbing with alcohol. Deep-cooling is already sometimes used to minimize (减到最低) damage during some surgery. It was also the way in the early days of open-heart surgery before the invention of the movement of blood machines that pump the blood while the heart is stopped. For these operations, doctors often took patients to such low temperatures that dangerous complications (并发症 ) occurred, such as irregular heartbeats and blood clotting.64. The writer thinks that refrigeration in stroke treatment___________.A. is a wonderful methodB. will produce high temperatureC. has been used for centuriesD. is too simple to carry out65. In the USA, cooling the sick in surgery_______.A. is popular but risky for patientsB. has been proved to be safer than brain-protecting drugsC. is considered helpful for treating stroke patientsD. is still considered dangerous66. From this passage we can conclude that___________.A. doctors should treat all kinds of patients in an old wayB. doctors should treat all kinds of patients in a strange wayC. medical science is developing with other sciencesD. medical treatment is based on theory67. From the last part of this passage, we know that_________.A. doctors can't operate on a patient if his body temperature is highB. doctors should try their best to reduce a patient's temperatureC. a patient's body can work normally without the movement of his bloodD. a patient's body temperature can't be reduced too lowBImagine going to your doctor with frequent headaches. Your doctor takes a prescription pad and writes a word on it. The word isn’t “aspirin”, it’s “Mozart”.The idea isn't so far-fetched. Many kinds of music can stir the imagination and produce strong feeling. Scientists have found Mozart's music to be remarkable in its ability to calm its listeners.Many amazing cases have been known using Mozart as a healing(治愈的) aid. For example, a tiny newly-born baby named Krissy, who weighed just 1.5 pounds at birth, was on total life support. Doctors thought she had little chance of survival. Her mother insisted on playing Mozart for Krissy, and thinks it saved her daughter's life. Krissy lived, but she was very small for her age and slower than the average child. At the age of four, she showed an interest in music and her parents gave her violin lessons. To their astonishment, Krissy was able to play musical pieces from memory that were far beyond the ability of an average four-year-old. Playing music helped her improve in all areas of her life.And there are other stories. Officials in Washington State report that new arrivals from Asia learn English more quickly when they listen to Mozart. Even animals respond to Mozart. In France, cows listening to Mozart give more milk.Why Mozart, rather than Bach or the Beatles? Any kind of music can have an effect on some people. But Mozart has more balance. It isn't too fast or too show; it's just right. Don Campbell, who wrote a book called The Mozart Effect, says, "It's like food. A hot spicy meal will affect you differently than a sweet dessert. And while you might love these foods, they aren't good for you to eat every day. You need simple, nutritious (营养的 ) food on a steady basis. That's the way Mozart is. It's likea nutritionally balanced meal that does good to your body."68. Scientists find Mozart's music has a special effect on__________.A. stirring people's imaginationB. curing certain illnessesC. increasing the growth of a newly-born babyD. calming down its listeners69. From the third paragraph, we can conclude that Krissy __________ ifshe had not listened to Mozart.A. would probably have diedB. couldn’t have showed any interest in music at allC. would have stayed in hospital longerD. would have stopped growth70. Which of the following is not true about the effect of Mozart's music?A. It can help people learn foreign languages more easily.B. It can help people sleep more peacefully.C. It can make cows give more milk.D. It can be used as medicine.71. The author mentioned Don Campell and his book_____________.A. as a good support to his own ideaB. to show the relationship between food and musicC. to give some new explanations about Mozart's musicD. to ask people to listen to Mozart moreUnit8 Saturday—Oct6AA: Look!

位敦市安定阳光实验学校高三英语下学期第8周周练试题考试时间：3月28一，阅读理解（每小题2.5分）共20分AFor the first time in modern history, less than half of the U.S. adult population now reads literature, according to a recent survey. Reading at Risk: A Survey of Literary Reading in America presents a detailed review of the decline of reading’s role in the nation’s culture.Reading at Risk is a survey of national fashion in adult literary reading. The data source for Reading at Risk is as reliable and objective as any such survey can be. The key results of the survey are presented in the “Summary”, but the report can be further explained as: literary reading in America is not only declining rapidly among all groups, but the rate of decline has been speeded up, especially among the young. Reading at Risk merely shows a great cultural change that most Americans have already noted —our society’s great turn to electronic media for entertainment and information.Reading a book requires a degree of active attention and devotion. Indeed, reading itself is a progressive skill that depends on years of education and practice. On the contrary, most electronic media such as television, recordings, and radio make fewer demands on their audiences, and indeed often require no more than passive participation. While oral culture has a rich reality and electronic media offer the considerable advantages of variety, print culture affords irreplaceable forms of focused attention and thought that make various communications and views possible. The decline in reading, therefore, equals a larger retreat (减少) from participation in public and cultural life.What is to be done? There is surely no single solution to the present problem, just as there is no single cause. The important thing now is to understand that America can no longer take active and devoted reading for granted.Reading is not a timeless, common ability. As more Americans lose this ability, our nation becomes less informed, active, and independent minded. These are not qualities that a free, inventive, or productive society can afford to lose.28. The main purpose of the survey is to _____.A. focus on the role of electronic media and readingB. show that American young people read less and lessC. give a report of the national fashion of literary readingD. review that less than half of the population now reads literature29. According to the passage, reading _____.A. requires less attention and devotionB. demands nomore than passive participationC. limits various communications and viewsD. means active participation in public and cultural life.30. The underlined phrase “cultural change” in Paragraph 2 refers to the change _____.A. from oral culture to electronic mediaB. from print culture to electronic mediaC. from electronic media to oral cultureD. from electronic mediate print culture31. The author of the passage ______.A. misunderstands oral cultureB. doubts the results of the surveyC. encourages the Americans to read moreD. agrees to the solution to the present problem in readingBIf you can only do three things, do these to get a good night’s sleep, says Helene A. Emsellem, director of the Center for Sleep && Wake Disorders in Chevy Chase, Maryland, and an associate clinical professor of neurology at George Washington University Medical Center in Washington, DC.1. Allow one hour before bedtime for a relaxing activity. Watching the news or answering e-mails does not count! Better choices are reading or listening to soft music.2. If your mind is relaxed but your body is tense, do some low-intensity stretches and exercises to relax your muscles, especially those in your upper body, neck, and shoulders. Before you get into bed, use light weights (3 to 5 pounds for women, 5 to 10 pounds for men) to calmly exercise these muscles. Do one set of 8 to 10 repetitions of a basic exercise for each upper body muscle. We call this automassage.3. Allow at least three hours between dinner and bedtime. The brain does not sleep well on a full stomach. If you know that you have a busy day planned the following day, have your big meal at lunchtime and a lighter meal as early as possible in the evening. If you find you are still hungry before bedtime, try one of the many protein-enriched power bars (without chocolate) for your bedtime snack.32. The writer’s main purpose is to ______.A . tell the readers some ways to get a good night’s rest B. warn people not to eat too much before going to bedC. help the readers to know the importance of sleepingD. remind people to get ready for tomorrow’s busy work33 We can know from the passage that ______.A. watching TV is a good way to relax ourselvesB. doing much exercise can help people sleep wellC. having dinner as early as possible is good for your sleepD. eatingtoo much has an effect on your sleep34. The underlined word “this” here refers to ______.A. doing some low-intensity stretches and exercises to relax your musclesB. using light weights to calmly exercise muscles before getting into bedC. doing one set of 8 to 10 repetitions of a basic exercise for each upper body muscleD. relaxing your muscles in your upper body, neck, and shoulders35. Which of the following can NOT help you relax before going to bed?A. Relaxing your muscles.B. Reading some books.C. Eating some chocolates.D. Listening to some soft music.二，七选五（每小题2.分）共10分I f you feel depressed, it’s best to do something about it—depression doesn’t just go a way on its own. In addition to getting help from a doctor or counselor, here are four things you can do to feel better.Exercise. Take a 15-to-30-minute walk every day —or dance, jog, or bike if you prefer. People who are depressed may not feel much like being active. 36 Once you get in the exercise habit, it won’t take long to notice a difference in your mood.Cherish yourself with good nutrition. Depression can affect appetite. One person may not feel like eating at all, but another might overeat. If depression has affected your eating, you’ll need to be extra mindful of getting the right food. 37 So eat plenty of fruits arid vegetables and get regular meals （even if you don’t feel hungry, try to eat something light, like a piece of fruit, to keep you going）.Identify troubles. 38 When you know what’s got you feeling blue and why, talk about it with a caring friend. Talking is a way to release the feelings and to receive some understanding. If there’s no one to tell, pouring your heart out to a journal works just as well.39 Depression affects a person’s thoughts, making everything seem dark, negative, and hopeless. If depression has you noticing only the negative, make an effort to notice the good things in life. Try to notice one thing, and then try to think of one more. Consider your strengths, gifts, or blessings. Most of all, don’t forget to be patient with yourself. 40 _A. Look on the bright side.B. Take action to solve problems.C. But make yourself do it anyway.D. Depression takes time to heal.E. Proper nutrition can influence a person’s mood and energy.F. With depression, a person’s creativity and sense of fun may seem blocked.G. Try to make out any situations that have contributed to your depression.三，完型填空（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）I would like to suggest that for sixty to ninety minutes each evening all television broadcasting in the United States be forbidden by law.Let us take a __41___, reasonable look at what the results might be if such a(n) _42___were accepted: Families might use the time for a real family hour.

There is more entertainment in _52___ than in a TV program. _53___ report that the generation growing up with television can hardly write an English sentence, ___54___ at the college level. _55__is often learned from reading.

When the quiet hour _57___, the TV net works might be forced to _58__ with better shows in order to get us back from our newly discovered activities.At first glance, this idea seems radical. How will we spend the time then? The fact is: it has been only twenty-five years _59___television came to control American free time.
