At that time, the French dreamed of discovering and controlling more land across the world. In 1535 Francois I, King of France, ordered a navigator (航海家) named Jacques Cartier to explore the New world and search for a passage to India.Cartier first arrived at the Gulf of the St. Lawrence, which he wanted to explore. He did not knowwhat to expect but he hoped that this Gulf was just an arm of the ocean between two islands. If it was, he would soon be on his way to the Far East. So he sailed upwards along the St. LawrenceRiver. However, instead of reaching Asia he arrived at Quebec or Stadacona, as the Indians calledit. It was at this point that the term “Canada” entered the country’s history. Clearly the word“Canada” came from an Indian word “Kanata”, which means village. Cartier first used it when hereferred to Stadacona or Quebec. What a huge “village” Canada is!57. What was Cartier ordered to do?A. To build a new countryB. To find the New WorldC. To get in touch with the American IndiansD. To know more about America and find a new way to Asia58. When Cartier reached the Gulf of St. Lawrence he hoped ________.A. he had got to the Far EastB. it was a water way to the New WorldC. it was a water way to the Far EastD. he had sailed into the Pacific59. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Quebec and Stadacona were tow islands.B. The Indian language for village is Stadacona.C. Quebec and Stadacona were two villages in Canada.D. Stadacona was what the Indians called Quebec.60. Canada was first used to refer to __________.A. AsiaB. the New WorldC. a villageD. Quebec Olivia and Jack are the most popular names in Britain for babies born in 2008, according to a survey made by the website Bounty. Jack has been top for 14 years since it took over from Thomas.Grace — made famous by the Hollywood star Grace Kelly — slipped back into third place behind Ruby, the name of singer Charlotte Church’s daughter.Summer climbed 28 places from 44th to 16th. Ava — the name of singer Myleene Klass’s daughter — also leapt 15 places to 19th.The troubles of the singer Amy Winehouse perhaps had an effect on the popularity of the name. It dropped three places to 23rd. Rebecca is also on the wane(变弱), ranking 48th. So is Courtney, which ranked 88th. Theo, obviously inspired by England’s teenage football hero Theo Walcott, is among the biggest climbers in the boy’s list, rising from 70th to 58th.An employee of Bounty said, “Baby names have witnessed the biggest changes over the last decade as parents are increasingly influenced by celebrities. The Bounty baby name poll also shows parents are continuing to be creative and inspirational about the names they choose for their children. Some parents want a name that’s totally unique, and names such as Zebedee, Selim and Zenon are now emerging and growing in popularity. Others are simply breaking with convention and becoming bolder in their choice of names.”“While politicians’ names may be growing in popularity in America, British politicians don’t influence our choice of names in the UK. Traditional royal names continue to be supreme(最高的) in the boys’ top 100,” The employee said.6．Which of the following girl names ranks the second?A. Grace.B. Ruby.C. Kelly.D. Charlotte.7．Baby names changed a lot mainly because of the influence of ______.A. starsB. parentsC. mediaD. politicians8．What kind of names covers the most in the top 100 boys’ names?A. Unique names.B. Creative names.C. Famous people’s names.D. Traditional royal names.9．It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. Thomas was the first in boy names in 1994B. Summer ranked 28th in the girls’ list in 2007C. Rebecca might be 50th in the girls’ list in 2007D. Courtney climbed in the boy’s list in 2008 compared with 2007 A dog can’t speak words, but it can “talk”. It has feelings just as you do. At times it may feel angry or afraid. Watch a dog closely. Youcan see what it is trying to tell you. When you are afraid, you may look down shyly. A fearful dog looks away from you. It may run away too. When you are angry with people, you stare at them and press your lips together. An angry dog also stares. Sometimes the hair along its back stands up. Do you feel guilty when you have done something you shouldn’t? Dogs can feel guilty, too. At times when I come home, my dog gives me a guilty look. Then I know he’s done something wrong.Dogs need love and attention. Some dogs are very unhappy when they are left alone for a long time. Some dogs even snap(撕咬) if they don’t get enough attention.You may have a dog or you may know a dog. Treat it well if you want to have fun with it. Play with it. Take it on wa lks. Don’t order it round too much. Try not to punish it one time and not the next for doing the same thing. Always remember, a dog has needs and feelings just as you do.

When they go into action, you may not even see a fire truck.The Hotshots are firefighters who battle fires in wildness areas. But don’t think you’ll only find them in their home state California. Wherever there is a national wildfire emergency, the Golden Eagles Hotshots could be there.But these firefighters don’t work the same way as firefighters in a big city. They work in areas where there are a large number of trees, bushes,and grass. They climb up and down steep hills to clear brush and burnable debris（残骸）. They sometimes use water, but they often fight fire with fire!They do that by lighting what are called “backfires,”which are small, controlled fires that burn up fuel in the path of large wildfires. That way, when the wildfire gets there, it has nothing to burn and nowhere to go, because all the burnable fuel has already gone up in smoke. The Hotshots also clear away fuel using old-fashioned hard work. For example, they use a saw to cut away trees and heavy brush that could catch fire.Of course there are times when the Golden Eagles Hotshots do have trucks to supply water to the fires. But the water is limited, and these guys have to rely on hard work more than anything. Physical fitness is very important. They have to be in great physical shape to handle steep hills and difficult terrain(地形) while carrying a 60-pound pack.The Golden Eagles Hotshots definitely work hard for their pay. But thanks to their efforts, many lives have been saved, many houses have not burned, and countless trees are still standing.15．67. The firefighters mentioned in the passenger.A. do much of their work in CaliforniaB. avoid climbing steep hills in their workC. do their work equipped with advanced tools.D. carry out their work mostly in forests and mountains.16．68. According to the passage, why do the firefighters light “backfires”?A. To signal for help.B. To remove obstacles.C. To protect trees and bushes.D. To prevent the fire from spreading.17．69. What can we learn about the Golden Eagles Hotshots?A. They are firefighters working in big cities.B. Their work requires physical strength.C. They are voluntary firefighters working for free.D. They usually hold a hose to put out the fires.18．70. What is the author’s attitude towards the Golden Eagles Hotshots?A. AppreciativeB. DoubtfulC. WorriedD. Critical Pregnancy(妊娠) and childbirth kill more than 536,000 women a year. More than half of the cases happened in Africa, according to the World Health Organization. In fact, most of the deaths are preventable with basic medical care.The five leading causes are bleeding, infection, high blood pressure, long­time labor and bad abortions (流产). Mothers' deaths from such causes were largely reduced nearly a century ago in developed countries. Experts say that what kill many women are “the three delays”— the woman's delay in deciding to go to the hospital, the time she losestraveling there and the hospital's delay in starting treatment. Only about 15 percent of births have dangerous complications(并发症)．Women lack education and information about birth control. Husbands and in­laws, may decide where a woman gives birth and insist that she stay at home to save money. However, there is no single solution to a problem with so many factors—shortages of doctors, nurses, drugs, equipment, roads and transportation—though hospital officials are trying many things now.One stopgap measure to solve the problem for the present has been to train assistant medical officers, to perform certain operations. Some African countries are now struggling to train more assistants and midwives (接生婆) , and provide places for pregnant women to stay near hospitals. But there is a long way to go. Only 20 percent of women in the continent give birth at the hospital. More than 50 percent stay at home to give birth, and the rest go to local clinics that cannot handle emergencies. 19．Which is not included in the five leading causes of women's deaths during pregnancy and childbirth?A. Infection.B. High blood pressure.C. Traveling long distances.D. Bleeding.20．The underlined word “stopgap” probably means “________ ”in the passage.A. finalB. temporaryC. effectiveD. instant 21．What can we learn from this passage?A. The governments of African countries have to take more effective measures to save pregnant women.B. Developed countries should help African countries reducemothers'deaths.C. The husbands in poor countries should take responsibility for their wives'deaths.D. Most problems that cause women's deaths during pregnancy and childbirth can be treated or prevented.22．What is the author's attitude towards the future of preventing women's deaths during pregnancy and childbirth?A. Positive.B. Negative.C. Objective.D. Subjective.参考答案1．B2．C3．D4．C【解析】1．由performances and popular Chinese foods. Daily 11 am- 2 pm, 5 pm-11pm.找到。

AIn Singapore, most of us love window-shopping while some others enjoy having a picnic at East Coast Park or Changi Beach on sunny days. Singaporeans are never bothered by the occasional thunderstorm. However, we know that if it rains for long continuous periods, there will be more serious effects. Just recently the main shopping street of Orchard Road was flooded and some part of Bukit Timah was impassable to traffic. People reacted by writing in to the newspaper to complain about this! We forget that other countries suffer much worse effects. Elsewhere, heavy tropical（热带的）storms often result in floods that ruin crops especially in Thailand and Malaysia. This in turn usually means that the price of rice and vegetables here in Singapore will rise because we import these products from them. If there is a typhoon or tsunami, thousands of lives are lost too. This happened in Indonesia and Phuket in Thailand in 2004 and it serves to remind us of how Mother Nature can cause great damage.Weather patterns in general have changed dramatically in recent years. Scientists believe that global warming and the resulting melting of the polar ice-cap has caused the level of the ocean to rise. This in turn causes flooding of low-lying areas in countries where the land is rather flat and some parts of which is below water level. It is believed that human activities have caused Mother Nature to show her extreme anger, so it is now important that we really work together to cut down on harmful activities, for example, illegal logging（伐木）or irresponsible forest-burning to clear land for farming.56.From Paragraph 1, we can see that most Singaporeanslove________.A. making complaintsB. going out for picnicsC. doing window-shoppingD. traveling along the coast【答案】C【解析】根据第一段第一句可知。

AEach morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table, reading his book. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to copy him in every way he could.One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa, I try to read the book just like you, but I don’t understand it, and I forget what I understand as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the book do?”The grandpa quietl y turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, “Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water.”The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandpa laughed and said, “You’ll have to move a little faster next time,” and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again.This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned. Out of breath, he told his grandpa that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, so he went to get a bucket instead.The grandpa said, “I don’t want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough.”The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandpa the basket was empty again. Out of breath, he said, “Grandpa, it’s useless !”“So, you think it is useless?” the grandpa said, “Look at the basket.”The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean.“Grandson, that’s what happens when you read the book. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you’ll be changed, inside and out.”【文章大意】本文是篇记叙文，讲述的是一个小男孩模仿他爷爷读书，可是每次合上课本后都不知道读了些什么，于是他就去问他爷爷，读书有什么好处?他爷爷让他带着装煤的篮子去打水可是每一次无论他跑多快到家篮子里面都没有水，于是他给他爷爷说用竹篮打水是没有用的，他爷爷让他看看篮子，这才发现篮子比以前干净了。

阅读提速练(三)(限时40分钟)对应学生用书(单独成册)第160页Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2020·合肥教学质量检测)The following four famous paintings—from Jan van Eyck's portrait to Pablo Picasso's masterpiece—have stood the test of time.The Arnolfini PortraitJan van Eyck's Arnolfini Portrait，an oil painting on wood produced in 1434，in which a man and a woman hold hands with a window behind him and a bed behind her，is undoubtedly one of the masterpieces in the National Gallery，London.This painting is not only visually interesting but also famed.It is also an informative document on fifteenth­century society，through Jan van Eyck's heavy use of symbolism—while husbands went out to engage in business，wives concerned themselves with domestic duties.The Starry NightVincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night，oil on canvas(油画布)，a moderately abstract landscape painting of a night sky over a small hillside village，during his 12­month stay at the mental hospital in Saint­Remy­de­Provence，France between 1889 and 1890.When the Museum of Modern Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941，it was not well known，but it has since become one of Vincent van Gogh's most famous works.The HarvestersThe Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565.It depicts(描绘)the harvest time which most commonly occurred within the months of July and August.Nicolaes Jonghelinck，a merchant banker and art collector from Antwerp，once held this painting.The painting has been at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City since 1919.GuernicaGuernica，a large oil painting，was painted by the Cubist(立体派的)Spanish painter，Pablo Picasso in 1937.The title “Guernica”refers to the city that was bombed during the war.The painting depicts the horrors of war and as a result，has come to be an antiwar symbol and a reminder of the tragedies of war.T oday，the painting is housed at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid.[语篇解读] 本文介绍了四幅世界绘画名作的相关情况，包括其创作时间、画作内容等。

However, I did love to run because I felt as if I was flying but this all changed two years ago when I suffered a knee injury. I was bedridden for two weeks and I had a difficult time moving even short distances. I literally cried myself on my way to the car for a few days.When therapy wasn't working well for me, I signed up for a hot yoga class for girls, Bikram Yoga to be exact. Starting a yoga practice was truly a godsend because it helped me gain strength in my knees but, most importantly, yoga helped me attain a more peaceful state of mind, body and spirit.Since each class was heated to 105°F, every time I stepped foot in the yoga studio, I'd feel a surge(涌起) of negative thoughts come upon me like a big ocean wave. Some of these thoughts were, in the beginning of my practice, so strong that I walked out of the class several times. However, as the months passed by, I noticed that when I didn't get swayed away by my negative thoughts, I could stay in the hot room for longer.After 3­4 months of practicing hot yoga, my arms and legs were beginning to get definition. I also woke up with so much more energy than I had before starting my yoga practice and I gradually started shedding the pounds from my body. Yoga literally made me feel as if I'd taken a shot of energy drink and just gave me that burst that helped my knees heal and made my overall health better.As I saw some of my classmates do poses that looked appealing to me, I started to think maybe I could do them too. Therefore, yoga helped show me that I have no real limitations physically unless I set those limitations myself through eating junk and thinking in negative limiting terms.Also, practicing yoga in front of a mirror helped me connect with myself and practicing with a group of people really helped me to feel a greater sense of connection with humanity whereas before I didn't. Overall, this yoga practice has helped me to see I'm part of a bigger picture in life!4．What made the author sign up for the yoga class?A．Her currently disabled knee.B．Her being uncoordinated.C．Her failure to find her car.D．Her serious mental disease.5．What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 3?A．Lack of confidence prevented her doing yoga.B．The temperature was difficult to bear in yoga classes.C．She couldn't stand the pain the knee injury brought.D．She was greatly impacted by negative thoughts at first.6．What effect did yoga have on the author?A．She did better than her classmates at school.B．Her physical and mental states have improved a lot.C．She has developed many healthy eating habits.D．Her social circle was widened in the yoga classes.7．What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A．To share her experience in taking yoga classes.B．To call on readers to sign up for yoga courses.C．To present the benefits of practicing yoga regularly.D．To show readers the necessary skills needed to do yoga.CAnimal and plant species are disappearing at frightening rates. The problem has led to efforts to “rewild” places where such life existed before human development, pollution and climate change forced it out. The American city of Detroit is an example of how human actions can increase rewilding, which generally means helping natural systems in damaged locations, removing dams or building tunnels to reconnect animal pathways cut by roads.Detroit's population reached a high of 1.8 million in the 1950s. Then the population began dropping. By 2000, there were fewer than one million people living in the city. Thousands of houses and other buildings were left empty over the years. Some structures were destroyed, leaving empty areas that plants and animals regained as habitats. Nonprofit groups have also planted trees and community gardens in these areas. Bald eagles found their way back as bans on DDT and some other insect poisons were put in place nationwide. Anti­pollution laws and government­supported cleanups made nearby rivers better for fish and native plants.Now, Detroit is home to 300 bird species and is a busy visiting place for ducks and others during migration. Additionally, this city offers a special way to study plants and animals in urban settings. Unlike most big cities, its population is decreasing but its streets and buildings remain in place. And there are many kinds of habitats, including large lakes, rivers and human neighborhoods. Detroit's parklands are so quiet that people don't even know they're in the city.“It used to be that you had to go to some remote location to get exposure to nature，” said John Hartig, a professor of University of Windsor. “Now that's not the case. Like it or not, rewilding will occur. The question is how we can prepare communities and environments to anticipate the presence of more and more wildlife. After all, many city people have lost their tolerance to live with wildlife. To really make a difference in dealing with the biodiversity crisis, you're going to have to have people on board.”8．What might have happened in Detroit at the beginning of 21st century?A．The city was overpopulated.B．More community gardens were built.C．Many buildings were deserted.D．The environment was badly damaged.9．What does the example of Detroit mainly tell us?A．It's government­supported efforts that really matter.B．Humans' efforts can make a difference in rewilding.C．Humans are to blame for the worsening environment.D．It's hard to humans and wildlife to live in harmony.10．What can we infer about current Detroit from the text?A．It is a big city crowded with tourists and bird species.B．Tourists don't show any interest in the quiet surroundings.C．It's turned into a place where people can get close to nature.D．It's become a center for those who study animals and plants.11．What does the underlined word “anticipate” in the last paragraph mean?A．Protect. B．Expect.C．Imagine. D．Delay.DThe Front Porch Center for Innovation and Wellbeing (FPCIW) launched a Bear Robotics ‘Servi’ pilot in June 2022 to help ease the challenges for senior dining services. In senior care, difficult as having a major change can be, the FPCIW took strategic steps to maximize the chances of the robotics pilot being a success. Davis Park, vice president at FPCIW, feels the pilot's success was largely due to the pre­deployment conversations and focus group discussions held. “We strongly believe that a little investment in the groundwork can make all the difference in a successful or failed technology project in senior living communities，” he says.Clear, open, and honest conversation around the pilot helped to prepare staff and residents for the robots' introduction. “Change is always hard，” says Park. “The open discus sions we had weeks in advance were helpful to make sure residents and staff felt heard about concerns they had about how ‘the robots are taking over’ or ‘this is going to take my job away.’” He notes that the FPCIW worked to reach out directly to those individuals who disagree or feel uncomfortable and to understand their pain points.The focus on deliberate and clear messaging also helped to address concerns surrounding the pilot. Messaging was delivered in person as early as eight weeks before the robots were introduced to the community dining rooms. Multiple open forums leading up to the “go­live” kickoff created the opportunity to answer questions and address concerns. “We also distributed digital and physical copies of flyers and letters to all residents. And with that, we were able to head off many of the concerns and worries before they became problems and barriers to adoption.”When it comes to using robots in dining services, Park has a word for senior care operators. “Listen. Make sure to create the time and space for residents and staff to air their concerns, and also be prepared for those who may not be ready，” he says. “And just as importantly, if not more: Make it fun! During our go­live event, we covered the dining room with robot­themed decorat ions and had the robots pass out robot­themed candies and champagne (香槟).”12．What is the key to the pilot's being successful?A．Putting in much time.B．Investing massive money.C．Providing chances of research maximally.D．Having sufficient communications beforehand.13．Why do some people object to the pilot?A．They find robots unfriendly.B．They fear their unemployment.C．They consider robots unreliable.D．They think the robot hard to operate.14．What's Paragraph 3 mainly about?A．Concerns on the pilot.B．Ways of delivering messages.C．Means of writing letters to residents.D．Barriers to accepting the dining robots.15．What's Park's advice for operators?A．To be sociable and grateful.B．To be cautious and generous.C．To be tolerant and optimistic.D．To be patient and considerate.第二节(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。

AWe live in central Phoenix, near the canal. Every day I used to see a homeless old man and his scruffy little dog hanging out down there.I would tell my husband we should give him food for the little dog. It wouldn't have been a problem; we have our own "mini farm" of animals! But he would say "OK!" and then blow the idea off because of our business.Being in Phoenix, Arizona, you can just imagine how hot it gets here, but his winter was really chilly! I had just come from KFC with take-out food for dinner. As I was turning by the canal, the man and his dog were sitting right there all bundled up. Even the doggy had a coat on! Not even thinking about it, I pulled into the parking lot along the canal and piled up a plate of chicken with al the fixings for the man and his little buddy. I gave it to him with a soda and a bottle of water for the little dog. He said, "Thank you, sweetie. You are an angel." And there were tears welling up in his eyes! I told him he ws so welcome, and then went home.When my husband dug into the KFC gag he asked, "Were you hungry, or what?" I told him what I did and he said, "Only you!" Then he told me I had done a good thing.A few weeks later, we were walking along the canal and found the man walking to me, with his little dog. He asked whether I would mind adopting the dog. With tears in eyes, he said it had gotten too hard for him to care for the dog. He added that he was planning on heading to Washington State but his dog wouldn't have been up to it, so he hoped to give it to me. "Only you! In this city, you are the only person I can believe in!"Now, every time I watch and pat the puppy lying near the fireplace,I will recall the old man's words and wish him good luck.26.The author and her husband didn't kelp the old man at the beginning because _______A.they had a farm of animals to feedB.they didn't have food even for themselves.C.they worked busily and often forget it.D.they were unwilling to help a man with a dog.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。
