Where can we read the above information most probably A.In an English bookstore. B.In a newspaper.C.In a hotel magazine. D.In a English TV channel.BWhen you set a foot outside of your door to drop litter, go to a social event or go for a walk, thoughts like “I hope I don’t see anyone I know” or “please don’t talk to me may run through your mind”. I’ve also said such things to myself. Sometimes the last thing you want to do is to talk with someone, especially someone new. Why do we go out of our ways to avoid people Do we think meeting new people is a waste of time Or are we just lazy, thinking that meeting someone new really is a trouble Communication is the key to life. We have been told that many times. Take the past generations, like our parents, for example. They seem to take full advantage of that whole “communication” idea because they grew up talking face to face while Generation Y grew up staring at screens.We spend hours of our days sitting on Facebook. We send messages to our friends and think about all of the things we wantto say to certain people.Nowadays, we are so caught up in our little circle of friends—our comfort zone. We love it that they laugh at our jokes, understand our feelings and can read our minds. Most importantly, they know when we want to be alone. They just get us.Holding a conversation with someone new means agreeing with things that you don’t actually believe and being someone you think they want you to be — it is, as I said before, a trouble. It takes up so much energy, and at some point or another, it is too tiring.But meeting new people is important. Life is too short, so meet all the people you can meet, make the effort to go out and laugh. Remember, Every “hello” leads to a smile — and a smile is worth a lot.;4. What do we learn about the authorA.He likes to be alone.B.He feels stressed out lately.C.He’s active in attending social events.D.He’s afraid of talking to others at times.;5. What’s the problem of Generation Y in the author’s eyes A.They rely on the Internet to socialize.B.They are less confident about themselves.C.They have difficulty in communicating.D.They are unwilling to make new friends.;6. Why do many young people avoid meeting new people A.They think it is troublesome.B.They are busy with their study.C.They fear to disappoint their old friends.D.They want to take time to do meaningful work .;7. Why does the author write the textA.To tell about the importance of friends.B.To give tips on how to meet new people.C.To encourage people to meet new people.D.To introduce the disadvantages of Generation Y.CYou should always support your kids and their natural talents. And if you nurture them, great things will happen. That's what 9-year-old Joe Whale's parents thought when they encouraged their son to keep drawing, even though he got into trouble for doodling (涂鸦)during class.They sent Joe to an after-school art class and his artistic abilities were quickly noticed by those around him. In fact, Joe was invited to decorate the dining room of the “Number 4” restaurant in Shrewsbury, England. Now, Joe is known as The Doodle Boy and has his own website, as well as social media pages showing off hisawesome art.According to Greg, Joe's dad, his son has always loved drawing and "was added to the Gifted register in primary school aged 4”. Greg also revealed how long it took Joe to finish his drawings on the dining room walls in the restaurant. "Joe spent about 12 hours illustrating the wall.”What's more, Greg had some proposals for parents who want to encourage their kids to develop their talent: "I would advise parents to encourage their children to always follow their passion and dreams - research local workshops or groups within your local community ”Joe's teacher recognized his talent and posted his work on Instagram. His drawings caught the eye of the “Number 4" restaurant which asked him to come over and decorate their walls with his doodles. Now, his dad drives him there so he can draw his heart out. Who knew that drawing in an after-class program would lead Joe to get his first job at barely 9 years old8. What did Joe do in his classA.Supported other naughty children.

While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do.A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend's. Wechatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池)was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership - a shop selling cars - was right next door.I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom."Just how friendly is Friendly Ford " I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said."Thank you" - two powerful words. They're easy to say and mean so much.12.

My name is Linda. I am from Isla de Maipo, Chile. I live with my dad, my mom and a rabbit happily. But I was born with a cleft lip(唇裂).I don’t remember anything about my first years with my cleft lip. All I know is that when I was young, my parents found Fundación Gantz in Santiago, where I had been for free treatment.Every time when I went to Fundación Gantz, my heart was full of thanks to my parents. It was not easy to arrive on time for medical examination. We had to get up at six in the morning to drive for more than an hour and be careful not to get hit by other cars, but my parents never complained about such busy and tiring days.Doctors at Fundación Gantz helped me a lot. First, they healed my cleft lip. Then, with orthodontic treatment(正畸治疗), they managed to correct my bite, and later they performed an operation on my jawbone.I thank the doctors there who treated me, and Dr. Angus is my favorite—he has known me since I was born. When I was in the waiting room waiting for my operation on my jawbone, I was sweating all over in fear. Dr. Angus came to my side and talked to me endlessly about the things I was interested in, such as Kayros’ music and Bolano’s books, making me feel relaxed.In the past, before the treatment, I had no confidence, and children made jokes on my cleft lip at school. I started training in Taekwondo(跆拳道)at the age of four in a gym next to my kindergarten and it was just whatI needed at that time. It changed me and the children around me —before, children played tricks on me, but later they respected me. Today, when people talk about something on my lip, I will tell them the little mark never bothers me because it is so small that it can hardly be seen.I want to tell the medical experts at Gantz to keep it up because their work is admirable, and they help a lot of people in need.1. Which of the following can best describe the author’s parents?A.Selfless. B.Impatient. C.Fair. D.Outgoing.2. How did Dr. Angus help the author reduce her fear of the operation?A.He read to her. B.He talked about interesting things withher.C.He played music for her. D.He changed her operation plan.3. How did Taekwondo change the 4-year-old author?A.It made her school time colorful. B.It built her confidence.C.It improved her school performances. D.It prepared her for her future career.4. What does the underlined word “something” refer to in paragraph 6?A.The color. B.The cost. C.The operation. D.The mark.3. The return of sports during the pandemic(大流行病)has been one of the fewest saviors for many people over the last year. It offers a sense of hope that, one day, things will return to some sort of normality.The same is true in the world of esports(电子竞技), an industry that has played some of its biggest and most great games behind closed doors over the past 12 months,René Romann is a huge fan of Team Liquid* a leading worldwide professional esports organization. Following my favorite organization has provided relief during such difficult times. It’s interesting to see this online family, this Liquid family, and how we can help each other in certain situations, especially in this pandemic,” Romann told CNN Sport.Studies show the number of esports fans rose rapidly and, with everyone stuck indoors due to the lockdown(封控), TV viewers increased again. “Keeping fans attrac ted is important for an organization like Team Liquid, which says its supporters are at the heart of everything it does,”Team Liquid’s CEO, Steve Arhancet, said. His team regularly sent handwritten letters and called fans over the phone in order to encourage that community feeling. It was something that he said had been extra important during such tough times.“When you’re able to provide that kind of care and consideration for a family member or a friend or someone that you just care about, why is it different for a relationship between the sports team and its fans? It should be the same,” Arhancet told CNN Sport, “I think a lot of other teams take it for granted. They just assume that fans could just watch the content and that’s enough. It isn’t. Sportst eams have to care, to listen and to remember. ”1. What does René Romann think of Team Liquid?A.It is rich. B.It is large. C.It is helpful. D.It is small.2. What is the most important for an esports organization according to Arhancet?D.Its size.A.Its supporters. B.Its equipment. C.Its members’skills.3. How did Team Liquid give its fans a sense of community?A.By changing its game rules. B.By providing difficult contents.C.By keeping in close contact with them. D.By helping look after their familymembers.4. Which is the most suitable title for the text?A.How Team Liquid Became ProfessionalB.What Role Team Liquid Played in EsportsC.Why Sports Returned to Daily Life During LockdownD.How Team Liquid Made a Difference During the Pandemic4. We always hear that text ing, which refers to the communicative practice of sending brief messages on cell phones or other personal digital devices, is a disaster. The idea is that text ing leads to the fall of writing ability among young people because it is full of informal language. As a matter of fact, it isn’t true. In order to see that text ing is actually a whole new way of writing that young people are developing, we have to look at what language really is.Basically, if we think about language, it has existed(存在)for centuries, and it appears as speech. W. talked. That’s what we’re probably genetically determined. That’s how we use language most. Writing is something that came along much later. But writing has its advantage, When you write, you can make the content smooth, colorful and elegant with language, which is much less likely if you’re just talking. . It is because writing is a conscious(有意识的)process and you can look backwards.Informal speech is something quite different. Linguists have actua lly shown that when we’re speaking informally in an unmonitored way, we tend to speak in words 7 to 10 as a group. You’ll notice this if you ever have an occasion for recording yourself or a group of people talking. That’s what speech is like. Speech is much looser and less reflective(反思的)-very different from writing. Texting is a new way of writing, because texters use writing skills before texting. People will process information in more creative uses of language during texting. When they use informal language in their texts, many understand there are different communicative situations. They try shortening language for correct spelling of a word or a phrase. Texting also allows texters much time to form their thoughts and provides many opportunities for them to revise their ideas Moreover, texting positively exercises texters’ rhetorical(修醇的)skills. Since texts are written in various styles, people must know how to match the style of a text with its message.Now we have an overall understanding of text ing.1. How does writing differ from speech?A.It came before talking. B.It is an unconscious process.C.Its style is less strict. D.It can be improved again and again.2. What does the underlined word “looser” in paragraph 3 mean?A.Stricter. B.Richer. C.Freer. D.Harder.3. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A.What is speech exactly.B.How text ers learn to write.C.How text ers send message successfully.D.The relationship between writing and text ing.4. Which statement about text ing does the author agree with?A.It is another form of writing. B.It is less reflective.C.It is the same as speaking. D.It is a disaster.5. Important Travel Safety TipsNothing ruins an adventure more quickly than getting sick, cheated or robbed when you travel abroad! 1 .Register at your embassy(大使馆)The Smart Traveller Enrollment Program, from the US Department of State, is designed to make a destination’s local embassy aware of your arrival and keep you constantly updated with the latest safety information. I t’s also a great way to get reliable and up-to-date safety information as you travel along with an extra level of security in case of emergencies. Don’t worry about the cost. 2 .3Once you’ve worked out when and where you’re going, make sure someone el se knows it as well. The best way is to email the full route to a few family members and double check with them that they received it. Then, if you can, check in from time to time.Get travel insurance(保险)Everyone should carry some kind of health and property insurance when travelling. 4 . It is because some accidents happen, whether you think they will or not. It doesn’t matter how careful you think you are.Ask locals for adviceLocals actually can be excellent sources for good information. If you want to know which neighborhoods are safe and which might be not, you can ask a local resident of the area. Most locals are friendly and will warn you not to go into dangerous areas. 5 , it’s wise to get a second opinion—just in case they don’t really know what they’re talking about but simply want to help.6. Let me talk about the traffic jam(堵塞)I met last time. A couple of weeks ago, I was planning to go on a busine ss trip by ________ to another city.

Since Art History class in college, I had always admired his works and I was lucky to see a large exhibition of his works when I was in my early 30s. It was at this event that I bought a print of his painting. “Snap the Whip.” I had it framed and until I retired from teaching it always hung in my classroomI thought it truly captured(捕捉) the freedom and fun of childhood. In the painting, a group of young boys are playing a game arm in arm on grass ground in front of a farm house. They are jumping and laughing wildly with great joy. One of the boys is falling down to the ground. They are not even wearing shoes!During my last year of teaching, there was a young woman in her first year of teaching right next door to me and we got to be good friends. She had been an art student before taking up education. Her eyes were drawn immediately to this print when she entered my room. So on my last day of teaching, after the students had left, I took the painting off the wall and walked next door and gave it to her.She was really surprised, but very pleased to have it. I was pleased that she liked it and all the students she would have would treasure(珍爱) it as much as I had. We found the perfect place for it on one of her walls and hung it together.

Studies have shown that people who live in warm, sunny climates are no happier than those in chilly, wet climates, he says. So the British talking about the weather may be making us gloomier(沮丧的) than the weather itself.He said: “A study was done that measured the happiness levels of people in California compared to the North West. “They expected that people in California would be happier because it is more sunny, but they found that levels of happiness were exactly the same. If it is sunny every day you get used to it and the sunshine doesn’t make you any happier. Most of the time the wea ther doesn’t influence our well-being at all. But when we think about it, and think that it does, that’s when we get miserable.”In his new book, Happiness By Design, Dolan argues that we can think ourselves happy by taking our attention away from what makes us sad.“Most of our anxieties come from what might be,” he argues. “If you want to be happier, pay attention to the things that make you feel good.”He also claimed that a problem shared was not always a problem halved(减半). He believed that humans are actually very good at being able to get over tragedy(悲剧) and loss.Professor Dolan also admitted for the first time that he had a stammer(口吃), which had made his early life miserable. He added it only got better when he learned not to pay attention to his speech problem.“Things are never as bad as you imagine them being,” he said.8.What has the research found?A.British people don’t like to chat about the weather.B.Cold days make people feel less happy.C.People are more likely to be happy when the sun is shining.D.Rainy days have no influence on people’s mood.9.What does the underlined word “miserable” in the second paragraph mean?A.Good. B.Unhappy.C.Cheerful. D.Confident.10.What is Dolan’s suggestion for being happy?A.Don’t think too much about yo urself.B.Avoid comparing yourself to others.C.Don’t focus on what makes you sad.D.Avoid doing many miserable things.11.What do we know about Professor Dolan from the text?A.Once he couldn’t speak fluently.B.Once he didn’t want to share his problems w ith others.C.He has the ability to get over bad things.D.He has written many books about happiness.Dogs are likely to have complex emotions such as jealousy(嫉妒)and pride, according to a new scientific research.Dogs feel very jealous when they find that they are unfairly treated. And they do not like seeing their owners being kind to other creatures, especially other dogs. They often react negatively(消极地)when their owners bring home new pets, the research found. “Dogs show a strong aversion to unfai r treatment,” Dr. Friederike Range of the Vienna University said.At first, people believed most animals lack(缺少)the “sense of self” , which is needed to experience so-called secondary emotions such as jealousy, embarrassment or guilt. These emotions are more complex than feelings such as anger or joy.Besides dogs research, another research includes cows, horse, cats and sheep, and all the results have shown that animals are far more self-aware than we thought.Dr Paul Morris, a psychologist at the University of Portsmouth who studies animal emotions, told The Sunday Times, “We are learning that dogs, horses, and perhaps many otherspecies are far more emotionally complex than we ever realized. They can suffer simple forms of many emotions we once thought only primates (灵长类) could experience.”In research among dog owners, Dr Morris found almost all of them reported jealous behavior by their pets. The dog often tried to keep their owner away from a new lover in the early days of a relationship.Behavioral experts suggest that owners should keep a close relationship with the dog as usual when a new pet or child comes along in order to prevent jealous activity from the dog such as interruptions with barking.12.What is the new discovery about the relationship between dogs and human?A.Dogs usually have more emotions than humans.B.Dogs are often treated unfairly by humans.C.Humans are angry about their dogs’ negative reactions.D.Dogs feel unhappy when their owners show kindness to other creatures.13.What does the underlined word “aversion” in the second paragraph mean?A.Internet B.DislikeC.Concern D.Fear14.What does the “the sense of self” in the third paragraph probably mean?A.It is a complex feeling that belongs to humans.B.It is a kind of ability to fe el other people’s emotions.C.It is a necessary awareness to feel some complex emotions.D.It is a kind of emotion which is based on anger or joy.15.Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the fourth and fifth paragraphs? A.The research includes four kinds of animals.B.Animals are more self-aware than humans.C.Dogs experience more emotions than primates.D.Animals are emotionally complex.二、七选五How do I know if my older computer is worth repairing?

I founded a company that I loved. Everything changed when I broke up with my girlfriend.Sadness pushed me to my breaking point. It took me around three months after the break-up to finallymake the decision to leave and travel the world. It was one of the hardest things I had ever done, but it was also the best choice I ever made in my life.To this day, I still remember the day I called my parents, who are also deaf, to discuss my plans to travel the world. Both of my parents gave me their full support. They told me to go ahead and helped book my flight to Thailand.I chose Southeast Asia as my first, and I was fortunate to spend it with my good friend Mic Dolan. We spent about six weeks backpacking through Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia, having fun with tiger cubs and riding elephants. There was a new adventure every day. We paused long enough in Thailand to get certified in scuba diving, which turned out to be my favorite part. After that trip, I flew to Europe to meet another friend, John Hathaway. In this part of the journey, John and I turned our travels into a full-time adventure and we shared all of our stories on the Vlog platform Seek The World.Showing the people that I met and my readers who I am makes me more confident with what I want for my life. After meeting many deaf people, I realized that I have done one thing that everybody wants to do: I'm reaching my dream by breaking down communication barrier(障碍)and overcoming different challenges.

Today, one should not feel surprised if someone steps out to show off their uniqueness with a rope on a salamander (蟆嫄),just as others walk their dogs. However, the owners might cause a challenge to the nation's biological security(生物安全).Many of these unique pets are often caught in the wild, requiring hunters to enter nature reserves illegally to catch these protected species. So when some people pay money in advance to get these rare pets, their crime is no less than that of the hunters. Never thought one could spend a few years in jail for buying a pet, right?In fact, lots of rare pets were thrown away. The pet owners are likely to throw them away because of a little trouble. Some pet lovers raised crocodile turtles(鳄鱼龟)without realizing that when the animal grows its neck could stretch 40 centimeters long, causing greater challenges. However, when pet owners give up these rare pets, they increase the risks for local species. That is because many of these “pets" are foreign species. They have almost no natural enemies in China. As a result, when they are thrown into the wild, they will destroy the local ecology(生态).Some of the abandoned "pets" might also be dangerous. In 2014, there were reports that someone hadput poisonous snakes into the wild in Shenzhen, Guangdong province.One way of strengthening monitoring of these rare pets is by strengthening the regulation of online platforms. As most of these rare pets and their food are sold online, it is time the online platform honor their duties and strengthen monitoring, so that the rare pets don5t cause anyone any problem.There is a reason why humans traditionally pick cats or dogs for pets. Maybe, one should just stick to that simple choice.28.Why do some people keep rare pets?A.They dislike the traditional pets.B.They want to show off their uniqueness.C.They feel traditional pets are very limited.D.They try to challenge the biological security.29.Which behavior is likely to destroy the local ecology?A.Keep rare pets at home.B.Buy pets on online platforms.C.Put a poisonous snake into the wild.D.Throw the foreign species into the wild.30.Who is most likely to solve the problems mentioned in the passage?A. The ecologists.B. The sellers of rare pets.C. The online platform.D. The owners of rare pets.31.What can be the best title for the passage?A.Keeping Traditional Pets Is BetterB.Walking Rare Pets Becomes popularC.Biological Security Faces ChallengesD.The Rare Pets Cause a New ProblemDAfter 20 years of development, Chinese online literature has become one of the main resources of popular culture consumption(消费)in China. While it began with prevalent themes such as romance, fantasy, time travel and history, in recent years, online literature has turned from common themes to realism, which marks a new page in the development of the medium.A report by the China Audio-Video and Digital Publishing Association shows that, in 2020, the market value of Chinese online literature reached nearly 25 billion yuan with a domestic(国内的)reader base of 460 million people, of which around 7.58 million are active, daily users. By 2020, more than 21 million online writers had created about 29 million works.Huo Yan, an assistant researcher with the Institute of Literature of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said “Reader s like online literature because it satisfies what people currently most desire. On the surface, people want to be entertained and to relax, so that, in their free time, they don't want serious thinking, but simply some pleasure from reading. Exactly, people desire to experience the past and the present. In real life, our identities and classes are definite, but online, we can have other identities. For example, if given another life, can a person who lives passively improve their lot in life? In literature, they can feel the pleasure from actively seizing opportunities, becoming stronger and better.”“The writers of online literature are from all walks of life and each has a unique life experience and passion for literature. Their professional experience and love for writing greatly enrich their works.However.” Huo continued: "online literature, despite its vitality(活力), should learn from traditional literature to care more about reality, in addition to improving its language and plotting.”32.What does the underlined word “prevalent“ in the first paragraph mean?A. Fresh.B. Serious.C. Creative.D. Common.33.What can we know about online literature from Paragraph 2?A.It is becoming very popular in China.B.It has defeated traditional literature.C.The market value is gradually reduced.D.It has attracted about 460 million foreigners.34.Why is online literature so attractive to readers?A.It makes readers happy.B.It satisfies readers' desires.C.It makes readers think deeply.D.It improves readers5 writing skill.35.Which statement will Huo Yan probably agree with?A.Online literature should focus more on reality.B.All writers of online literature are professional.C.The ideas of traditional literary writers are out of date.D.The language and plotting of online literature are perfect.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。
【市级联考】河北省邯郸市2020-2021学年高一上学期期末考试英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择CREATIVE KIDS-FILM MAKING◆Become a director, scriptwriter(编剧), editor(编辑)and more…ll in a week?◆Six half days of film making + six half days of fun activities.What's it all about?Imagine yourself as the new Steven Spielberg or Ridley Scott? Love the cinema, but think you could do better? Or do you dream of being the next Keira Knightley or Johnny Depp? If so, then this is your holiday! You and your group will choose the type of film to make-adventure, fantasy, thriller or comedy. Then you'll create your own film to show at the end of the week. What's more, you'll also take your film home on DVD too!Can I do other activities as well?Yes, every day there's also half a day of activities from our great activity programme, and different entertainment(娱乐)every evening. So you can pack in lots of other new experiences too!What do I learn?You'll learn the basics of film and sound recording, performing, and script-writing;and how to use sound effects, visual effects and music.You'll also learn about the work of a director, before editing your own film.Do I need any experience?No, our fantastic trained instructors and film industry experts will guide you through the whole process, and give you tips from the professionals.Do I need any specialist equipment?No, we'll provide all the equipment, from top digital video cameras and editing equipment, to costumes and make-up. Just bring your imagination!Only £695 per child!1.Why are Steven Spielberg and Ridley Scott mentioned?A.To show they are really great.B.To make the course attractive.C.To show the popularity of films.D.To introduce the course's teachers.2.What will the kids do in the evening?A.Show their films.B.Enjoy themselves.C.Learn how to make films.D.Take part in outdoor activities.3.The kids who want to have the course are expected to.A.wear make-upB.bring camerasC.be film-loversD.be experienced4.What is the text type of the passage?A.A lecture.B.An instruction.C.A poster.D.An advertisement.Other cultures can be different from ours in many aspects! They can cat different foods and live in different types of houses. People probably speak different languages and have beliefs and customs very different from yours. However, they can also be similar in ways of connecting with each other. We sometimes call these means of communication universal languages.Some legends hold that, thousands of years ago, there was a single language spoken by everyone on Earth. It is fun to think about a time when everyone may have been able to communicate in the same language though historical evidence does not support this, of course.Today, there are thousands of languages spoken around the world. Yet, there are some means of communication that go beyond words and allow people of wildly different backgrounds to communicate and share emotions and feelings. For example, some people believe music is a universal language. There may be some scientific support for this idea, too. Experts have learned that, across cultures, people can recognize three common emotions in music; happiness, sadness and fear.So what other types of universal languages might there be? Some people believe dance is a universal language. Along with music, dancing seems to be a common interest shared by peoples all over the world. Do you think you could see a dance from another culture and make some reasonable guesses about the ideas and emotions behind it? We bet you could!Another universal language that you might not have thought of is math! If you think about it now, though, it just makes sense. The value of pi is roughly 3. 14159 no matter where you are on Earth, likewise, figuring out the value of something involves the same mathematical calculations, regardless of whether you' re counting in dollars, pesos or coconuts.5.What does the underlined word "this" in paragraph 2 probably refer to?A.The view that people only used one language.B.The fact that there used to be many languages.C.The evidence that proves old languages funny.D.The doubt that people didn't understand each other.6.Why is music regarded as a universal language?A.It can be enjoyed by people from all walks of life.B.It can be understood more easily than languages.C.It usually comes from different backgrounds.D.It helps people to share common feelings.7.What are the universal languages according to the passage?A.Math, English and music.B.Music, dance and math.C.History, culture and music.D.Emotion, pi and music.8.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Various Differences Between CulturesB.Music Helps People Show FeelingsC.Universal Languages Connect Different CulturesD.Cross-cultural Communication HistoryBe careful on January 8th —It's officially the most dangerous day of the year. The insurance(保险)company Hyperion has studied accident statistics(统计数字)and has found that there are more accidents on January 8th than on any other day.Accidents are certainly more likely to happen at particular times of the year. One general rule is that more accidents happen in winter months, because risk increases in bad weather.In 2004 and 2005 Hyperion found that the worst day was January 8th , with 298 accidents reported to them. March 3th was the safest day, with only 89 reports. Six of the ten worst days for driving were in January.It's clear that icy and snowy conditions are dangerous, but some other statistics are puzzling. A British Medical Journal report in 2001, for example, found that hospital admissions were always higher than usual on Friday the 13th .But it is not only when Friday falls on the 13th that it is a dangerous day. Four of the top ten worst days for accidents last year were Fridays-perhaps because everyone is rushing home for the weekend-while Thursdays are the safest day of the week.At what time of the day is an accident most likely to happen? The Health and Safety Authority found that people are most likely to have an accident at 11:00 a. m. , while the safest time of day is between 4: 00 and 5: 00 a. m. —probably because most people are in bed!Finally, good news for Harry Potter fans. Doctors at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford noted that fewer children were in hospital on the weekend when Harry Potter books were available to the public. Deaths fell by over 50% when the last two books went on sale. So if you want to be really safe, you should read a Harry Potter book in bed. at around 5: 00 on a Thursday morning, in summer.9.What is special about Janua, 8th according to Hyperion?A.The weather is often the worst.B.More accidents happen on the day.C.More people are rushed to hospital.D.It's the best day to buy insurance.10.Why are Fridays considered to be dangerous days?A.Fridays often fall on the 13th .B.Busy weekdays tire people out.C.Everyone is in a hurry to go home.D.It's easy for people to stay up.11.What happened when there was a new Harry Potter book?A.It became the safest day of the year.B.People were more likely to go out.C.Fewer children ended up in hospital.D.The driving conditions turned the worst.12.What is the purpose of this text?A.To solve a problem.B.To give practical advice.C.To tell an interesting story.D.To show some study results.二、七选五Develop Better Relationships with NeighborsGood neighbors are a lot like electricity or running water: We don't know how much we depend on them until we don't have them. They make our lives more pleasant and give us a sense of who we are, both as an individual and as a member of the community. 13..Strike up a conversation. Often neighbors don't even know each other’ s names. But it's okay to be the one to break the ice, even if you’ve lived next door for years. 14.. So as you see them at work in their yards, smile, wave, and say hello. Ask how their kids are, whether they could use an extra cucumber from your garden, or what they think of the price at the local supermarket.Reach out to the newcomers. These days, the old Welcome Wagon is a thing of the past. But your new neighbors may be feeling lonely and unsure, especially if they' re far from home, and might appreciate a friendly face bearing fresh-baked chocolate cakes. 15.. Recommend the best places to eat and sleep. Invite them over for coffee or tea when they get settled, give them your number, and point to your house as you say goodbye. Avoid causing inconveniences. 16.. Replace anything that belongs to your neighbor. Make sure that your car is not blocking their doorway. Such random acts of consideration will have your neighbors talking and the talk will be good.17.. In a good relationship, it's really the little things that count. Help to bring in the mail for the elderly neighbor when there is a heavy rain. When your neighbor forgets to take in his rubbish cans, roll them back into his yard.

Different functions of passportsBI began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's house,and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America.We were on the bus then.I was crying,and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me.I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again.In fact,I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives.When we were leaving,I thought about all the places I was going to see - the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.The country I was leaving and never to come back was hardly in my head then.The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism(乐观),but the idea did not come to me at once.For the first two years in New York I was really lost - having to study in three schools as a result of family moves.I did not quite know what I was or what I should be.Mother remarried,and things became even more complex (复杂的)for me.Some time passed before my stepfather (继父)and I got used to each other.I was often sad,and saw no end to "the hard times."My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home.I wrote letters,filled out forms,translated at interviews with immigration officers,took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there,and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives (代表).From my experiences I have learned one important rule:Almost all common troubles go away at last!Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up,and just wait a little!I believe that my life will turn out all right,even though it will not be that easy.19.How did the author get to know America?______A.

From her relatives.20.For the first two years in New York,the author ______ .A. couldn't study in a fixed schoolB. often lost her wayC. did not think about her futureD. performed badly in school21.What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4?______A.

"It was something out of a horror movie," Elisa posted on Facebook.For 3 minutes, "Matt threw his body in front of me and the boys and fought the wolf." At one point,Matt got the upper hand,pinning the wolf to the ground.But the wolf fixed its jaws onto Matt's arm,and began pulling him outside.It was then that Russ entered the picture.He ran at the beast,kicking it "like I was kicking in a door," he told ABC New York.The wolf dropped Matt and came out from the tent. " I felt like I had hit someone that is way out of my weight class," Russ added.Before the wolf could turn its anger on Russ,Matt,whose arms bloodied,flew out of the tent to continue the battle.The men threw rocks at the wolf,forcing it back,and then the Fees and the Rispolis ran into the Fees' minivan.An ambulance was called,and Matt was taken to a local hospital suffering bad injuries.He now has fully recovered.The wolf was tracked down by park officials and euthanized (实施安乐死).As for Russ,whom Elisa called their guardian angel,he does admit to a fleeting (转瞬即逝的)thought,if less-than-heroic,during the heat of battle.The moment the wolf locked eyes with him,"I immediately regretted kicking it."23.When did Russ join the fight?______A. When he saw a wolf pulling a man.B. When he saw a wolf tearing into a tent.C. When Matt pinned the wolf to the ground.D. When Matt threw his body in front of his wife.24.What can we learn from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?______A. The wolf was out of Russ' way.B. Russ once hit someone very huge.C. The wolf was far heavier than Russ.D. Russ wanted to beat the wolf to death.25.What kind of person did Elisa think Russ is?______A. a person who is positive in life.B. a person who always protects them.C. a person who is less-than-heroic.D. a person who recovers easily.26.What is the best title for the passage?______A. A Narrow Escape.B. Wolves in Banff.C. Two Lucky Families.D. An Exciting Adventure.DWhen a storm is coming,most people leave the area as quickly as possible and head for safety.But there are a few people who will get into cars and go straight for the center of the storm.These people are willing to risk being killed by floods or 100-kilometer-an-hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up."Storm chasing (追逐)" is becoming an increasingly popular hobby,especially in the Midwest of the United States,where there are frequent storms between March and July.A storm chaser begins the day by checking the Internet for the latest weather reports,and then drives up to 1,000 kilometers to where the storm will be and waits for it to develop.Although anyone can do it,storm chasing is extremely dangerous.The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds.Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain.If you are a beginner,it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm seasons.Even then,storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement. "Storm chasing is 95% driving," says Daniel Lynch,who spends most of his summer storm-chasing. "Sometimes you can sitaround for hours waiting for something to happen,and all you get is blue sky and a few light showers."However,for storm chasers,it is all worth it. "When you get close to a storm,it is the most exciting sight you will ever see in your life," says Jasper Morley. "Every storm is an example of the power of nature.It is the greatest show on Earth."27.For storm chasing,the first thing storm chasers do is to ______ .A. leave the area quickly for safetyB. collect information about a coming stormC. head straight for the center of the stormD. Patiently wait for the storm to develop28.It's recommended that beginners of storm chasing should ______ .A. not drive in a heavy rainB. spend much more time on itC. not get into the center of a stormD. do it in an organized way29.By saying "it is all worth it" in the last paragraph,the author means that ______ .A. efforts in storm chasing are well paidB. storm chasing is a waste of moneyC. storm chasing is worth seeingD. storm chasing shows the power of nature30.What can we infer from the text?______A. Storm is too dangerous to chase.B. Storm chasers are driving all the time.C. Sometimes it's nothing but disappointment that storm chasers get.D. Storm chasing is becoming popular around the world.三、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共12.5分)Have you ever started a fitness program and then quit?(1) .Many people start fitness programs,but they may stop when they get bored,they don't enjoy it or results come too slowly.Here are four tips to help you stay motivated.Set goalsStart with simple goals and then progress to longer range goals.Remember to make your goalsrealistic and achievable.For example,if you haven't exercised in a while,a short-term goal might be to walk 10 minutes a day five days a week.
