Pruning involves the cutting away of overgrown and unwanted branches , and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged by the thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way .First , pruning may be done to make sure that trees have desired shape or size . The object may be to get a tree of the right height , and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches , which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape . Secondly , pruning may be done to make the tree healthier . You may cut out diseased or dead wood , or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus cause wounds . The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the center and so preventing the free movement of air .One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entry for disease , but it is a wound that will heal (愈合) . Often there is a race between the healing and the disease as to whether the tree will live or die , so that there is a period when the tree is at risk . It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce that risk of death as far as possible . It is important to make the area , which has been pruned , smooth and clan , for healing will be slowed down by roughness . You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hours and then paint it with one of the materials available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose . Pruning is usually done in winter , for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without interference (妨碍) from the leaves and also it is very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed . If this does happen , it is , of course , impossible to paint them properly .26.Why should running be done ?A.To make the tree grow taller . B.To improve the shape of the tree .C.to get rid of the small ranches . D.To make the small branches thicker . 27.Trees become unhealthy if the gardener .A.To help a wound to dry .B.To cover a rough surface .C.damages some of the small side branchesD.Allows too many branches to grow in the middle28.Why is a special material painted on the tree ?A.To help a wound to dry . B.to cover a rough surface .C.To make a wound smooth . D.To prevent disease entering a wound . 29.A good gardener prunes a tree .A.several times throughout the year B.as quickly as possibleC.occasionally when necessary D.regularly every winter30.What was the author’s purpose when writing this passage ?A.To discuss different methods of pruning .B.To introduce some common knowledge of pruning .C.To explain how trees develop disease .D.To give practical instruction for pruning a tree .第二节信息匹配(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)下面是一篇报纸上的文章,请将标有A—E的段落插入文章中标号为61—65的适合位置,使这篇文章意义完整,结构连贯。

B.Kept. C.Introduced. D.Deserted.18.Why does an English speaker find French easy to learn?A.Because English and French share similar pronunciations.B.Because English grammar and French grammar are similar.C.Because a large number of English words have French origins.D.Because English has great influences on the French language.19.French grammar is distinct from English grammar in that________.A.no words have the same pronunciationsB.all words have the same pronunciationsC.English nouns have a male or female genderD.French nouns have different adjective forms20.What conclusion can we draw from the text?A.Language is closely related to history and culture.B.French and English words have nothing in common.C.Language is controlled by the upper classes of society.D.English combines French and the native Anglo-Saxon.BOne bitterly cold day,a snowstorm blew into ourarea.Needing firewood,I quickly set out with my bestfriend,Bruce,to look for a tree to cut down.I was glad to haveBruce along with.Cutting down a tree in a snowstorm can bedangerous.So it was important to have a friend who could warnme of danger.When I chose a big tree about 23 meters tall and preparedto cut it down,my best friend suddenly warned me,“Don’t cutdown that tree!It’s too close to the power line!”I wasn’t sure about it.So I decided to disregard his warning.I wanted to finish the job quickly and go home.So I began cutting down thetree.When the tree fell,there was no longer any doubt that my friend was right.The tree caught the power line,bringing it to the ground.I considered cutting the tree off the line.After all,electricity can’t travel through wood,so I could safely remove the tree.As I reached out my finger to touch the tree,pain ran up my arm and through my head.I was shocked!After I returned home and told my mother what had happened,she quickly called the power company.The workers from the power company soon arrived on the scene.One of them asked if I had touched the tree,and when I told him I had,his face turned pale.“You should have been killed,” he said.So why am I still alive?It was my boots that saved my life.Within two hours,the workers removed the tree.Soon the snowstorm calmed down—but not my mother.Even though she was glad I wasn’t hurt,my mother was still serious.After all,I shouldn’t have brushed off my friend’s warning.Through this experience,I learn it’s important to listen to people who offer a different perspective.Taking time to listen might actually save a lot of time and trouble.It certainly would have kept me from getting the “shock” of my life.21.The underlined word “disregard” in the second paragraph means “________”.A.pay no attention to B.take notice ofC.consider D.follow22.In spite of Bruce’s warning,the author still cut down the tree because________.A.he was sure there would be nothing to happenB.he wasn’t sure if Bruce was right and was anxious to go homeC.he didn’t hear his friend’s warning at all because of the blowing windD.he knew electricity can’t travel through wood23.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A.But for his boots,the author would have died.B.The author regretted having brushed off his friend’s warning.C.The author knew nothing about electricity.D.When the tree was cut down,the author realized his friend was right.24.The underlined part “the snowstorm calmed down—but not my mother”means “________”.A.my mother was still angry with me for not listening to my friend’s warningB.my mother was still in fear of the terrible accidentC.my mother was still comforting meD.my mother was still worried about my safety25.The author wrote the passage mainly to________.A.give an account of one of his terrible experiencesB.make us know it’s important to listen to people who offer a different perspective through his experienceC.tell us not to cut trees down any moreD.remind us to be careful while we are working1.D2.D3.C4.A5.A6.B7.C8.D9.C 10.B 11.C 12.A 13.B 14.C15.D 16.C 17.B 18.C 19.D 20.A 21.A 22.B 23.C 24.B 25.B。
单元检测(三)Unit 3 A healthy life(满分:120分限时:10()分钟)I .阅读理解AFew laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled 一to $1.01 per pack 一smokers have jammed telephone "quit lines" across the country seeking to kick the habit.This is not a surprise to public health advocates・ They" ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health・ They raise money and most particularly, and they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted・ Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost $10.06 at one drugstore Wednesday・ Charleston, S, C・, where the 7-cent-a-pack tax is the lowest in the nation. The price was $4.78・The influence is obvious・In New York, high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys 一13.8%, far below the national average. By comparison, 26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky, Other low-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smoking records.Hal Rogers, Representative from Kentucky, like those who are against high tobacco taxes, argues that the burden of the tax falls on low-income Americans “who choose to smoke.”That" s true, but there is more reason in keeping future generations of low-income workers from getting hooked in the first place. As for today' s adults, if the new tax drives them to quit, they will have more to spend on their families, cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better.1 • The text is mainly about _______ ・A ・ the price of cigarettesB ・ tie rate of teen smokingC・ the effect of tobacco tax increase D. the differences in tobacco tax rate2. The underlined word “deter" in Paragraph 3 most probably means _________ .A. prevent B • removeC. benefitD. free3. Rogers' attitude towards the low-income smokers might be that ofA. tolerance B • unconcernC. doubtD. sympathy4.Whcit can we learn from the last paragraph?A.The new tax will be beneficial in the long run.B- Low-income Americans are more likely to fall ill.C.Future generations will be hooked on smoking・D.Adults will depend more on their families.BAsk any group of teenagers in the UK what they most like to eat, and foods like pizzas, curries, pasta, burgers and chips are bound to get a mention 一and many young people would probably also list hanging out at the local fast-food restaurant as one of their favorite pastimes (V肖遣)•But what teenagers like to eat is not necessarily what they should be eating. According to the National Diet and Nutrition Survey, far too many young people in the UK between the ages of 4 and 18 consume too much fat, sugar and salt in their diet and take in too many calories• Meanwhile their intake of starchy carbohydrates (含淀粉的碳水化合物),fibre, iron, vitamins and calcium is too low.For a growing body, eating foods containing plenty of calcium, such as milk, yoghurt and cheese, is particularly important as calcium is essential for the development of healthy, strong bones. Similarly, foods that are rich in iron are good for young, rapidly developing bodies, so red meat, bread, green vegetables, dried fruit and fortified (营养强化白勺)breakfast cereals are also recommended.It is during our teenage years that lifestyle habits can become entrenched (确立的),so it is crucial that young people are educated about what foods are good for them. In 2005, and in an attempt to change eating habits and open teenagers' minds to new flavours and new tastes, celebrity chef Jamie Oliver launched a "Feed Me Better^ campaign. As a part of television series, "Jamie" s School Diners", he worked with teachers and cooks in a number of schools across the UK to provide more healthy, nutritious school meal options. Although there was initial resistance from some teenagers and parents, the campaign was generally hailed as (被赞为)a huge success and helped to influence governmental policy on nutritional standards for school meals.No one expects to end the teenage love affair with fast and junk food but, hopefully, if projects like “Feed Me Better^ and the Government,s own "Change 4 Life" campaign continue to give out the right messages, more young people will understand the importance of balancing occasional treats with healthier food options・5.What can we conclude from the first two paragraphs?A・ British teenagers eat too much junk food・B.British teenagers need to take in more calcium・C.What British teenagers like to eat is probably what their bodies need・D・ British teenagers should reduce their intake of starchy carbohydrates・6・ Young people need calcium and iron_______ .A.to improve their brainpower B ・ to build healthy strong bodiesC. to provide energy for their bodyD. to help change their eating habits7・ According to the article, Jamie Oliver launched a campaign at schools to _______A.show off his excellent cooking skillsB • teach stud ents how to cook nutritious mealsC・ introduce governmenfal policy on nutritional standards for school mealsD.draw the public' s attention to the importance of nutritious school meals8.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the article?A.Teenagers shouldn,t eat any junk food at all.B.It is difficult to make children understand the importance of a healthy diet.C.It is OK to eat a little bit junk food, as long as you eat healthily most of the time・D.Our eating habits are developed in our teenage years and then influence our lifestyle・cRetail therapy (购物疗法)really does exist, and the desire to shop could be caused by a fear of death・ It has long been considered as the ultimate (终极的)way to let off stress by some members of the women. Now, U・ S・ scientists have discovered not only does retail therapy exist, but that it could be caused by an individual s fear of sudden death.Researchers found materialistic people thought terrorism and war morestressful than others.Psychologists believe the rise of materialism around the world and its treatmenteffect on extreme stress might be a response to fear of deathcaused by acts of terrorism, disease and natural disasters.The scientists from Michigan State University said people with possession obsessions often have lower self-esteem than others so are more likely splurge following severe psychologicaltrauma.Ayalla Ruvio, a business professor studying people' s shopping habits while rockets fell in Israel, said: "When the going gets tough, the materialistic go shopping. This compulsive and impulsive spending is likely to produce even greater stress and lower well-being・ Essentially, materialism appears to make bad events even worse. ”D匚Ruvio led a two-part study of Israeli citizens living in a town that came under extreme rocket attacks for about six months in 2007. She compared 139 residents of the southern town with 170 from another town that was not under attack to see how their symptoms of post-traumatic stress andshopping habits varied. De Ruvio analyzed the psychological condition of the two groups and found that, when faced with a mortal threat, those who are highly materialistic suffered much higher levels of post-traumatic stress, while their tendency to buy impulsively and compulsively was increased・D E Ruvio said: 'The relationship between materialism and stress may be more harmful than commonly thought."The second stage of their research, published in the Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, surveyed 855 Americans about their materialistic nature and fear of death. They found shopping was used to relieve feelings of stress and anxiety about death among more materialistic people, but this was in response to fear of a variety of life-threatening events like car accidents, criminal attacks and natural disasters・9.Which of the following opinions is NOT right according to the text?A.The materialistic believe terrorism and war more stressful than others.B.Psychologists believe acts of terrorism, diseases and natural disasters cause the rise of materialism ・C・ The scientists think people with possession obsessions often have higher self-respect.D・ The scientists think people with possession obsessions have more severe mental trauma>10.What,s the result about D匚Ruvio" s research?A. The impulsive spending does good to people? s health・B ・ The impulsive spending may produce even greater stress and lower happiness・C.Faced with great stress, people feel hopeless for life.D・ Faced with a deadly threat, people" s wish to shop will decrease・11 • Which is NOT the event threatening life that people are afraid of?A ・ Greater stress. B. Car accidents.C. Criminal attacks・D. Natural disasters・DStudents who date (约会)in middle school have significantly worse study skills, are four times more likely to drop out of school and report twice as much alcohol and tobacco use than their single classmates, according to new research from the University of Georgia・"Romantic relationships are a trademark of adolescence, but very few studies have examined how adolescents differ in the development of these relationships> ” said Pamela Orpinas, study author and professor in the College of Public Health and head of the Department of Health Promotion and Behavior.Orpinas followed a group of 624 students over a seven-year period from 6th to 12th grade・Each year, the group of students completed a survey indicating whether they had dated and reportedthe frequency of different behaviors, including the use of drugs and alcohol. Their teachers completed questionnaires (调查表)about the students' academic efforts.

A(2016·抚州高二模拟)Fading beautyShe is widely seen as proof that good looks can last for ever. But, at nearly 500 years of age, time is catching up with the Mona Lisa.The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum where it is housed.“The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago,”the museum said. Visitors have noticed changes, but repairing the world's most famous painting is not easy. Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current chemical state.Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year, many attracted by the mystery of her smile. “It is very interesting that when you're not looking at her, she seems t o be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops,”said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University. “It's because direct vision is excellent at picking up detail, but less suited to looking at shadows, Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”However, the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile.Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it was eventually sold to France's King Francis Ⅰin 1519.In 1911, the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, whotook it out of the museum hidden under his coat. He said he planned to return it toItaly.The painting was sent back to France two years later.During World War Ⅱ,French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out ofthe hands of German forces.Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.?1.What does the writer mean by “time is catching up with the Mona Lisa”A.The painting woman is not so beautiful any more.B.Aging is something that affects us all.C.At such an old age, she is no longer popular.D.The painting needs repairing.句意理解题。

Sometimes I treated children who had been poisoned by medicine for older family members. The children didn’t know the medicine was dangerous; they just knew it tasted sweet. Children easily open the bottle that we now use in China.Some days ago I talked about medicines with an American. He showed me a sort of plastic bottle. The design was quite simple and I’m sure our Chinese factories could produce these bottles. The top of the bottle licks but can be opened by pressing down on it while turning. This is difficult for most you7ng children to do, though grown-ups can open these bottles very easily.I’m certain that the expense of making such tops would be very small.
