The world is filled with talented people. A few days ago, my car was not running well. I drove it into a garage(修车厂), and the young mechanic had my car 21 in just a few minutes. What 22 me most
was that he knew what was wrong by simply listening to its 23 .
But I am 24 shocked at how little money those talented people earn. Once a business consultant(顾问) in the 25 trade told me so many doctors and dentists are struggling 26 , which surprised me so much because I used to think that after they graduated, the 27 would pour in. The business consultant then gave me the phrase, “They’re some skills away from great wealth.” It means that most people need to learn and 28 some skills of money management before their income increases 29 . Unfortunately, schools 30 consider developing students’financial intelligence(财务智商) as intelligence, and after graduation, most people just work hard to pay their 31 .
When asked“How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonald’s?”, almost all my students raised their hands. I then asked, “So, why does McDonald’s make more money than you?” Without doubt, the answer is 32 : McDonald’s is excellent at bus iness systems. The reason why so many talented people are poor is that they focus on building a good hamburger, but know little or nothing about business systems. So this world is filled with talented but 33 people. Too often, they struggle financially or earn less than they are 34 of, because they just focus on 35 their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger.

第一节阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
After a terrible car accident, the whole world had been completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years, for he became both blind and deaf. The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such a sorrow that he tried several times to put an end to his life.
His wife did her best to tend and comfort him. By and by he finally regained the courage to live on.
On a hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. He stood under a large tree in order not to get himself wet. Unfortunately he was struck down by a lightning. The witnesses thought him dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water below the tree. He felt that he was trembling badly, but when he opened hi s eyes, he didn’t dare to believe that he saw a plough（犁）lying near the wall. When Mrs. Edwards came running up to him, she shouted for help. He saw her and heard her voice for the first time in nearly 10 years.
The news of Robert’s regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread. Many doctors came to prove the truth of the news. Most of them said that he gained sight and hearing again obviously from the knock of lightning; none of them could give convincing reasons，however. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Edwards lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock in a terrible accident, perhaps the only way for them to regain was by another sudden shock.
46. What was Edwards doing when he was struck by the lightning？
A. He was taking a walk with a stick near his house.
B. He was hiding from the rain under a tree.
C. He was lying on the ground in the muddy water.
D. He was trembling badly on the ground.
47. Which of the following is NOT true？
A. Edwards had been blind and deaf for nearly ten years.
B. Edwards woke up with his face in the mud.
C. Doctors held the belief that Edwards was never really blind or deaf.
D. Edwards lost all his senses for about 20 minutes after the lightning had struck him down.
48. What did Edwards see first after being struck down by the lightning？
A. His wife
B. The larger tree
C. A plough
D. The lightning itself
49. How did Edwards get his sight and hearing once more according to the doctor？
A. He regained them from a head injury when he fell from a tree.
B. His wife’s first visit after almost ten years made him so happy that he regained them.
C. The lightning took the feeling from his legs and gave the senses of sight and hearing to his head.
D. The blow that made him blind and deaf was very severe, so it took another severe blow to regain
them.
50. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Every coin has two sides
B. Regaining the long-lost sight and hearing
C. A splendid thunderstorm
D. A thunderstorm in need
B
First aid means what it says: the aid, or help that can be given to an injured person first which is before any other help. Usually the first thing we should do if a serious accident happens is to telephone for an ambulance, b ut sometimes quick actions by us may save someone’s1ife.
Shock:people often suffer from shock after receiving an injury. The face turns grey, and the skin becomes damp and cold. They breathe quickly. They should be kept warm. Cover them with a blanket and give them a warm drink.
Broken Bones: Don’t move the person. Send for an ambulance at once.
Poison: A person who has swallowed poison should be taken to hospital at once. With some poisons, sleeping pills, for example, it is a good thing to make the person sick by pushing your fingers down his throat. But if he has swallowed some kind of acid, or anything that burns, it would be a bad thing to make the person sick by pushing your fingers down his throat. The poison would burn his throat as it came up. It is, therefore, best to find out what the person has taken so that you can call to tell the doctor.
Suffocation: This means not being able to breathe. For example, a drowning person will have his lungs full of water. Lay him down with his head lower than the rest of his body so that the water will drain out. If a person has something stuck in his throat, try to remove it with your fingers, or by hitting him on the back. When a person has stopped breathing because of drowning, electric shock, breathing in a poisonous gas, etc, you can help him to begin breathing again.
Remember: When an accident happens, send someone to telephone for an ambulance at once. Keep the injured person warm and quiet. Give him plenty of air. Do not let other people crowd around him. If you see an injured person who is being looked after, keep away.
51. T he underlined word “drain out” in paragraph 5 probably means _______.
A.leave out
B. squeeze out
C. flow away
D. let out
52. When someone is injured, what should we do first?
A. Keep him warm with a blanket.
B. Send for an ambulance at once.
C. Make him sick by pushing your fingers down his throat.
D. Lay him down with his head lower.
53. The passage is mainly about ___________.
A. the importance of first aid
B. the symptoms of shocks
C. the types of injuries
D. how to offer first aid
54. Where would this article probably appear?
A. In a safety pamphlet(小册子)
B. In an advertisement
C. In a newspaper
D. In a popular magazine
55. Which of the following statements about first aid is mentioned in this passage?
A. First aid is always offered to the injured by the doctors.
B. Leave the person with broken bones alone before a doctor comes.
C. Give enough water to the person breathing in a poisonous gas as soon as possible.
D. Put down the injured with his head higher than the rest of his body.
C
American society is not nap(午睡)friendly. In fact, says David Dinges, a sleep specialist at the University of Pennsylv ania School of Medicine. “There’s even a ban against admitting we need sle ep.” Nobody wants to be caught napping or found asleep at work. A proverb says: “Some sleep five hours, nature requires seven, laziness nine and wickedness(邪恶) eleven.”
Wrong! The way not to fall asleep at work is to take naps when you need them. “We have to totally change our attitude toward napping,” says Dr William Dement of Stanford University, the godfather of sleep research.
Last year a national commission(委员会) led by Dement put forward an “American sleep debt” which one member said was as important as the national debt. The commission was concerned about the dangers of sleepiness: people causing industrial accidents of falling asleep while working. This may be why we have a new sleep policy in the White House. According to recent reports, our President is trying to take a half-hour nap every afternoon.
About 60 percent of American adults nap when given the opportunity. We seem to have “a mid-afternoon quiet state”, or “a secondary sleep gate”. Sleeping 15 minute s to two hours in the early afternoon can reduce stress and make us refreshed. Clearly, we were born to nap.
We Superstars of Napping don’t nap just to make up for the lost sleep after a night shift(夜班). Rather, we take it, whenever, wherever and at whatever time we feel like it. I myself have napped in buses, cars, planes and on boats; on floors and beds; and in libraries, offices and museums.
56. It is commonly accepted in American society that too much sleep is ________.
A. unbearable
B.unfit
C.harmful
D.unfriendly
57. The research done by the Dement commission shows that _________.
A. Americans who sleep too much usually get into debts
B. the commission blamed the national debts on people’s sleep
C. not enough sleep is no good for Americans and their country
D. napping at work has caused America many industrial and traffic accidents
58. The writer writes this passage in order to _________.
A.warn us of the risks of napping
B.show us the dangers of sleeplessness
C.introduce a national commission on sleepiness in America
D.convince the readers of the necessity of napping
59. From the passage, we can learn that “American sleep debt” is the result of _________.
A.the wrong attitude the Americans traditionally hold toward sleep
B.the sleep policy made by the American government
C.the rapid development of American industry
D.the Americans’ worry about the dangers of sleepiness
60. The last paragraph tells us that it is________ .
A.preferable to have a sound sleep after a night shift
B.good practice not to nap at work
C.essential to make up for lost sleep
D.natural to take a nap whenever we feel the need for it
D
The environment is everything that surrounds us: plants, animals, buildings, country, air, water--- everything that can affect us in any way. The environment of a town, with its buildings and its noise and smells, is a far cry from that of the countryside, with its fields and crops, its wild and domestic animals and its feeling of spaciousness(辽阔). And the environment differs in different parts of the world.
Ecology is the science of how living things exist together and depend on each other and on the local environment. Where an environment is peaceful, the ecology of an area is in balance.
Man is a part of the environment and has done more to upset the ecology than any other living things. He has poisoned the atmosphere and polluted both land and water. He has wasted the earth’s natural resources with no thought for the future, and has thought out the cruel ways of killing his fellow men--- and every other sort of life at the same time.
Since man has done so much damage, it is up to man to try to put matters right--- if it is not already too late. If there is to be any solutions for our ills, that solutions lie in the hands of the young, and the sooner they start doing something about it, the better.
One of the main causes of the earth’s troubles is that the world is overpopulated and that this overpopulation is growing at an ever increasing speed. At the same time we are using up our natural resources at an ever increasing speed with no hope for replacing them.
For many years the earth has been unable to provide enough food for these rapidly growing populations and the position is gradually becoming worse since the areas that were once rich have turned into deserts.
Even at this moment many of the earth’s natural treasures are being destroyed, many valuable animals and plants are being killed off, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to grow enough food to prevent much of the earth’s population from hunger. The situation is getting out of hand. Time is running out. But with your help, we may be able to save ourselves. Who cares?
61. What is the main theme of the passage?
A. Environment
B. Overpopulation
C. Environment protection
D. Ecology and science
62. The environment is __________.
A.almost the same in the world
B.different in different towns
C.almost the same in different towns
D.different from place to place
63. It can be inferred from the passage that_________.
A. man can do little to keep the ecological balance
B.the environment in town is worse than that in the countryside
C.to control the population is also a necessary way to keep the ecological balance
D.no one really cares about the earth.
64. The underlined word “upset” is closest in meaning to _________?
A. worry
B. pollute
C. break
D. possess
65. It is not clearly stated but implied in the passage that _________.
A. we can do something to save the earth
B. we can grow more food to save ourselves
C. we can do nothing about the natural resources
D. we can not make good use of our time

首先，请阅读下列的应用文：
A. Chapter 1:…you probably have an image in your mind of what the “perfect’ or “ideal” body looks like. Try not to press yourself to look that way. Each person is born with genes that control the shape of his / her body. Everyone is different. It’s important to be com fortable with the body you have.
B. Chapter 2:…You use energy for everything you do. That energy comes from the food you eat. Too much food or too little regular exercise causes your body to store the extra energy in fat cells. But, if you exercise regula rly and eat a healthy diet, you’ll feel healthier and stronger not to mention look great.
C. Chapter 3:… Your body runs best on foods high in carbohydrates and low in fat and sugar. Eating a healthy diet will provide your body with everything it needs to run smoothly. Your body breaks down proteins into amino acids(氨基酸), so you don’t need to take in the amino acids separately.
D. Chapter 4:…Exercise does more than just burn calories. For instance, regular exercise makes your muscles strong and flexible, and increases the amount of muscle you have. It also makes your heart stronger and lowers your blood pressure; …
E. Chapter 5: …Always warm up and stretch for 5-10 minutes before you do strength or endurance exercises. Afterwards, take 10 minutes to cool down. Your heart should beat normally when you stop. Exercising with a group may help you to exercise regularly.
F.Chapter 6:…Supplementation of a mixture of essential amino acids will increase protein synthesis (蛋白质综合体). While supplementing with either carbohydrate or amino acids may limit muscle damage and stimulate (激励) protein synthesis, there is increasing evidence that the combination can have an addictive effect.

选修6 Unit 1 Art-Reading A SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING Art is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. As there are so many different styles of Western art, it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones, starting from the sixth century AD. The Middle Ages (5th to the 15th century AD) During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was to represent religious themes. A conventional artist of this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. A typical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created feeling of respect and love for God. But it was evident that ideas were changing in the 13th century when painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way. The Renaissance (15th to 16th century) During the Renaissance, new ideas and values graduallv replaced those held in the Middle Ages.People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess t heir own paintings, so they could decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements. One of the most important discoveries during this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the roles of perspective had not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such realistic pictures. By coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces for which this period is famous. Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century) In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal. from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly industrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes. Naturally, these changes also led to new painting styles.

西方绘画艺术简史 艺术是受一个民族的风俗和信仰影响。西方艺术风格经历了多次变革。因为西方艺术多种多样，在短短的一篇课文里不可能进行全面的描述。因此，本书只谈及从公元六世纪开始以来最重要的几种艺术风格。 中世纪(5到15世纪) 在中世纪时期,画家的主要目的是把宗教主题表现出来。这一时期传统的艺术家无意于如实地展现自然和人物。这时的典型绘画充满了宗教的特征，体现出了对上帝的爱戴和敬重。但是，13世纪时绘画观念在改变是显而易见的，像乔托这样的画家开始以一种更现实的方式来画宗教场景。 文艺复兴时期（15世纪到16世纪） 在文艺复兴时期,新的思想和价值观逐渐取代了中世纪的思想和价值观。人们开始较少关注宗教主题而采取一种更人性化的生活态度。同时画家们回到罗马、希腊的古典艺术理念上。他们力争如实画出人物和自然。富人们想拥有自己的艺术品，这样就可以装饰自己的高级宫殿和豪宅。他们出价聘请著名艺术家不仅让他们画他们的活动和成就，还要他们画自己的肖像、房子和所有物。 在此期间，最重要的发现之一就是如何用透视法来画出事务。这一手法是1428年由马萨乔第一次使用的。当人们第一次看到他的画时，还以为是透过墙上的小洞来观看真实的场景，并对此深信不疑。如果没有发现透视法，就没有人能画出如此逼真的画。巧合的是，这一时期油画颜料也得到了发展，使得绘画的色彩看上去更丰富、更深沉。没有新的颜料和新的手法，我们就不能看到很多使这一时期著名的杰作。 印象派(19世纪后期到20世纪初期) 19世纪后期，欧洲发生了巨大的变化，从以农业为主的社会转变成了以工业为主的社会。许多人从农村迁入到新城市。有许多新发明和社会变革。这些变革也自然地促成了新的绘画风格。在那些突破传统画法的画家中有生活和工作在法国巴黎的印象派画家。 印象派画家是第一批室外写景的画家。他们急切地想把一天中不同时间投射到物体上的光线和阴影呈现出来。然而由于自然光的变化很快，印象派画家们必须很快地作画，因此，他们的画就不像以前那些画家们的画那样细致了。起初，很多人不喜欢这种画法，甚至还怒不可遏。他们说这些画家作画时漫不经心，粗枝大叶，而他们的作品更是荒谬可笑。 现代艺术(20世纪到今天) 在印象派作品的创建初期，他们是存在着争议的，但是如今已经被人们接受而成为我们现在所说的“现代艺术”的始祖了。这是因为印象派鼓励画家用一种崭新的视角看待他们的环境。如今，现代艺术风格有好几十种，然而如果没有印象派，那么这许多不同的风格也许就不可能存在。一方面，有些现代艺术是抽象的，也就是说，画家并不打算把我们眼睛看到的东西如实地画出来，而是集中展现物体的某些品质特征，用色彩、线条和形状把它们呈现出来。而另一方面，有些现代派的艺术作品却是那么真实，看上去就像是照片。这些风格如此不同。谁能预言将来会有什么样的绘画风格？

高中英语选修6 Unit 1 A SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING Art is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. As there are so many different styles of Western art, it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones. Starting from the sixth century AD. The Middle Ages(5th to the 15th century AD) During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was to represent religious themes. A conventional artist of this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. A typical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created a feeling of respect and love for God. But it was evident that ideas were changing in the 13th century when painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way. The Renaissance(15th to 16th century) During the Renaissance, new ideas and values gradually replaced those held in the Middle Ages. People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess their own paintings, so they could decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements. One of the most important discoveries during this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the rules of perspective had not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such realistic pictures. By coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces for which this period is famous. Impressionism(late 19h to early 20th century) In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal, from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly industrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes also led to new painting styles. Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists, who lived and worked in Paris. The Impressionists were the first painters to work outdoors. They were eager to show how light and shadow fell on objects at different times of day. However, because natural light changes so quickly, the Impressionists had to paint quickly. Their paintings were not as detailed as those of earlier painters. At first, many people disliked this style of painting and became very angry about it. They said that the painters were careless and their paintings were ridiculous. Modern Art(29th century to today) At the time they were created, the Impressionist paintings were controversial, but today they are accepted as the beginning of what we call "modern art". This is because the
