I got a free airplane ticket, but had to pay the hotel in cash, which 1 really couldn't afford. I found a travel website where a discounted 3-night stay was purchased from a recently opened hotel.About three weeks before the trip, I had to regretfully cancel and only then realized the room, while transferable (可转手的) to another person, couldn't be changed to a later date and wasn't refundable. For the next two weeks I tried selling it on Craig's list with no success. Five days before the "big weekend", I gave up trying to get any money back and decided I'd contact some acquaintances who live in Chicago and offer someone a free "staycation". After trying a handful of people all of whom already had their own plans,! was determined to have the room not go to waste.That's when it suddenly occurred to me that I was looking at the rooms in the wrong way. Instead of viewing them for vacation purposes, surely there must be a way to put them to good use, and that was when the idea that some sort of shelter might be able to use it. I eventually found one whose focus is aiding victims of domestic violence. This particular one was willing to listen to my out-of-left-field story and made it easier to transfer the rooms. The shelter was working with a desperate woman and her daughter, who were fortunately able to make use of the room. I was later told by the shelter "they had a blast".56.What did the author decide to treat himself to?A.A big meal in ChicagoB.A 4-day travel.C.A holiday abroadD.A get-together with family57.The author purchased a 3-night stay from a newly opened hotel_____.A.to act as a promoterB.to experience e-businessC.to get a free air ticketD.to save some money58.The room the author booked could only be______.A.cancelled within 24 hoursB.changed to a later dateC.transferred to another personD.refunded half of the money59.What did the author decide to do with the room at last?A.Sell it onlineB.Let it go to wastee it help strangers in needD.Offer it one of his friendsBOnce Upon a WishIn the last 30 years, the Make-A-Wish Foundation has granted nearly 300,000 wishes worldwide to children battling life-threatening illnesses, throwing light on worlds darkened by diseases and bringing hope to children and their families.With a foreword（序）by Make-A-Wish cofounder Frank Shankwitz, Once Upon A wish shares the wishes and stories of eight children.

They make the teaching or training activities more interesting. They areuseful in all fields of teaching and training.Help your child discover just how much more is going on in the world around themwith this listening game. It will also provide a few minutes of peace and quiet in what is probably a very noisy and busy day.A discussion of the sounds you each hear will also assist in language development and an ability to articulate that which was heard. The sit-and-listen game is especially helpful if your child is at the stage of developing language skills: listening, speaking and so on.Method: This is a very relaxing activity in which you both need to sit still and silentfor about 30 seconds and just listen to the world around you. You are both trying to hear as many different things as you can, whether they are cars, people, airplanes, water running, the wind in the trees or any other kinds of daily sounds.After the given time is up, having a chat about what you both could hear. It is a goodidea to ask your little one some open ended questions to promote their language development, such as: "What were the loudest sounds you heard""What were the closest sounds you heard""How many cars did you hear""How far away do you think that barking dog might live""What sounds did you hear which you did not expect to hear"Note: As an extension activity you may wish to draw a picture of all the things youcould hear.63. The sit-and-listen game is intended to develop____.A. your child's curiosityB. your child's imaginationC. your child's patienceD. your child's language ability64. During the game, the child _.A. is given more time than the parentB. tries to catch any sound that is going onC. can go and explore outdoors if necessaryD. can ask the parent any question he/ she has65. After a discussion of the sounds, you can ask your childA. to write a diaryB. to dictate the new words learntC. to draw a picture of the happeningsD. to imitate the sounds he/ she has heard66. The underlined word “articulate” in the 2nd paragraph probably means _.A. describeB. ignoreC. imitateD. imagineDFor anyone still doubting the belief that our emotions impact our physical health, a new study from New Zealand should be able to settle the matter. It reports that the physical wounds of healthy seniors healed more quickly if they wrote about their most upsetting experiences.This confirms the results of a 2010 study, and extends those findings to cover older adults-a group that is likely to suffer wounds (as from surgery), and one with less access to other ways of lowering tension (such as exercise).Reported in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, a research team led by theUniversity of Auckland's Elizabeth Broadbent made a study featuring 50 healthy adults ranging in age from 64 to 97. They were assigned to write for 20 minutes per day for three consecutive(连续的) days.Half were asked to write about the most upsetting experience in their life,describing their deepest thoughts, feelings, and emotions about the events, ideally not previously shared with others. The others were asked to write about their daily activities without mentioning emotions, opinions or beliefs.Two weeks after the third day of writing, all participants received a standard 4mm skin biopsy（皮下活体组织检查）on their inner arm. The very tiny wounds caused by the biopsy were photographed regularly over the following days to determine the rate at which they healed.On the 11th day after the biopsy, the wounds completely healed on 76.2 percent of those who had done the expressive writing. That was true of only 42.1 percent of those who had written about everyday activities."The biological and psychological mechanisms (机体) behind this effect remain unclear," the researchers wrote, noting that those who had done the expressive writing did not report lower stress levels or fewer depressive symptoms than the others in the control group. Even if they weren’t consciously aware of feeling more relaxed or positive, the expressive writing appeared to have caused some sort of bodily reaction- probably involving their immune systems-that hastened their recovery.67. What was the difference between the two groups of participants in the study?A. When they wrote.B. Where they wrote.C.When they wroteD.How often they wrote.68.According to the text, the experiment lasted_____A.about three daysB.about a monthC.about two weeksD.about ten days69.The underlined”hastened”in the last paragraph is closeest in meaning to_____.A.speededB.showedC.limitedD.ruined70.What would be the best title of the text?A.Sharing with others can reduce stress.B.Skin biopsies are likely to cause woundsC.Expressive writing heals physical wounds.D.Upsetting experiences influence our emotions.第二节七选五Parents and the YoungIt is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents.___71___. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways, that they are too serious and too strict with their children, and they seldom give their children a free hand.It is time th at parents often find it difficult to win their children’s trust and they tend to forget how they themselves felt when young.__72___. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Older people worry more easily. Most of them plan things ahead, at least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected. When you want your parents to let you do something, you will have better success if you ask before you really start doing it.Young people often make their parents angry with their choice in clothes, in entertainment and in music．But they do not mean to cause any trouble: it is just that they feel cut off from the older people’s world, into which they have not yet been accepted into their world．___73__, and if their parents do not like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the young people extremely happy.Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your paren ts to say, “ Yes” to what you do. __74___. It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents’ control.___75___. If your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility, they will certainly give you the right to do what you want to do.A.Parents should understand young peopleB.young people like to live with their parentsC.Young people like to act without much thinkingD.They say that their parents don’t understand themE.All you want to be left alone and do what you likeF.If you plan to control your life, you’d better win your parentsG.That’s why young people want to make a new culture of their own.第四部分.书面表达假设你是红星中学高三学生李华，你收到美国朋友Jim的来信，得知他的Twitter(社交)账号被盗。

This section of the Employee Handbook will tell you how to organize videos.Each Main street Movies store has three main sections:1.New Releases Wall.2.Film library.3.Video Games.New Releases Wall. Al most 70 percent of movie rentals are new releases, and that is the first place where most customers go when they enter the store. The center section of shelves on this wall holds Hottest Hits.

The New Releases Wall, including the Hottest Hits and Recent Releases shelves, holds about 350 titles.Film Library. The thousands of titles in the Film Library are organized into categories. The films within each category are displayed alphabetically. Here are the categories and their two-letter computer codes:AC Action DR Drama HO HorrorCH Children FA Family MU MusicCO Comedy FL Foreign Language SC SCIENCE Fiction*Foreign Language titles include films that were originally made in a foreign language and films with foreign language subtitles. A sticker on the back of each box tells which type of film it is.Video Game. All the video games in Main street Movies are arranged in alphabetical order. Although video games represent only a small percentage of our inventory(库存), they are stolen more often than any other type of goods in our store. Therefore, video games are never displayed on the shelves. Shelves in the Video Game section hold cardboard with pictures and information about each game. When a customer wants to rent a particular game, you then find the game from the locked case behind the counter.56. Whom do you think this passage is most probably addressed to?A．The readers in the store.B．The manager of the store.C．The customers in the store.D．The salespersons of the store.57. In which order are the new movies moved in the store?A．From Hottest Hits to Film Library to Recent Releases.B．From Film Library to Hottest Hits to Recent Releases.C．From Recent Releases to Film Library to Hottest Hits.D．From Hottest Hits to Recent Releases to Film Library.58. Why can’t video games be seen on the shelves?A．Because they’ve been sold out.B．Because they’re in the store house.C．Because they’re in a locked case behind the counter.D．Because they represent a small percentage of the inventory.59. How can a customer find a film with foreign language subtitles?A. Check the computer.B. Look at the back of the box.C. Check the center section.D. Watch a few minutes of the film.BHearing VoicesWould you like to be an actor, but aren’t the right age or physical type for the part? Don’t give up: there may be a place for you in the world of voice-acting.Twenty-year-old Rickey Collins brings Tucker Foley to like in the cartoon Danny Phantom. In addition to many appearances on television and in movies, Rickey is a voice-over actor, someone we hear but don’t see. Rickey has acted since he was 6, both on and off camera. After school, his grandmother-a manager and acting coach-helped his develop his skills by doing voice exercises and reading aloud.Voice-over actors do many kinds of acting. They are the voices of cartoon characters on television, in movies and video games, and for communicating toys. In films, they replace the foreign language conversation with English version. They create crowd noises, make commercials, act in radio plays, and record telephone instructions and public announcements. They read books on tape and even record museum tours.Like other actors, voice-over actors need to understand scripts, interpret characters, and breathe correctly. They have to master voice techniques, such as pacing, volume, and range. Sometimes they use their normal voices; other times they change their voices to create different characters or noises. Rickey receives his Danny Phantom scripts only a few days before he tapes each episode(集). He rites helpful notes on the script to guide himself on speaking his part.Rickey practices, then tapes at the record ing studio. He and the other cast members sit in a soundproof booth, acting out their characters as they read their lines into the microphones. “The cartoon gets created after we record the words, so we have to imagine everything in our mind,” days Rick ey. Later, the recorded words, music, and sound effects are combined with the cartoon art to create the cartoon we enjoy on TV. Sound interesting? Maybe you can have a “voice” in acting after all!60. The sentence underlined in paragraph 2 means _______.A. Rickey draws the characterB. Rickey names Tucker FoleyC. Rickey makes the character seem realD. Rickey decides the future of Tucker Foley61. From the passage we can infer that _______.A. it’s very complex to become a cartoon film voic e-over actorB. Rickey has been involved with acting most of his lifeC. Rickey was an actor when he was sixD. many people have nice voices62. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us that _______.A. a voice-over actor works very hardB. being a voice-over actor needs talentsC. being a voice-over actor requires skillsD. a voice-over actor has many techniques63. The information in this article would be most valuable to people _______.A. who want to build a career around their voicesB. who need to develop their stage-acting skillsC. who want to understand scriptwritingD. who need to practice voice exercisesCBasketball, Past and PresentIn 1891, a teacher invented a new exercise in Springfield, Massachusetts. A particularly cold winter meant that Dr. James Naismith’s students couldn’t exercise outdoors, and he needed to find a way that would both entertain them and make sure they got enough exercise. He nailed a peach basket up at one end of the gym and began to develop the rules of what is now one of the most popular sports in the world: basketball.As colleges began to adopt the game at the turn of the 20th century, basketball undertook a number of rapid changes. Five-person teams became the norm around 1898. Metal hoops replaced peach baskets in 1906. Though it was short lived, the first basketball league was formed in 1898. Under the direction of President Roosevelt, in the 1930s college sports were reorganized to change the rules, largely to prevent injury to players. This organization became the National Collegiate Athletic Association, or NCCA. The first professional league, later to become the National Basketball Association, or NBA, was put together in 1948.The game as we know it is still standardized very carefully. In the NBA and the NCAA, games are played for four quarters of 12 minutes each. A regulation court is 94 feet by 50 feet, though international basketball leagues sometimes use a somewhat smaller court. It has been suggested that because the athleticism of professional players has increased so much since 1891 the sport might be best served by increasing court size, though this change seems unlikely given the large amount of money that would be required to improve courts.Outside of the professional and collegiate leagues, there seems to be no end to the introduction of new varieties of basketball from very corner of the world: water basketball, wheelchair basketball, even a new form called slamball(极限篮球). One might even say that Dr. James Naismith’s creative achievement to sport exists in each one. And the basketball is significant for another reason: women have been playing al most since its inception: the first game of women’s basketball was played in 1891, the same year the sport was invented.64. What purpose does the first paragraph serve?A. To provide the origin of basketball.B. To stress the importance of basketball.C. To offer basic knowledge of basketball.D. To catch the reader’s attention by telling a story.65. Which of the followin g statements reflects the basketball inventor’s spirit?A. Basketball is now making a large profit.B. Many new, creative varieties of basketball exits.C. Americans are still very successful at basketball.D. Basketball has become an international sport now.66. The underlined word “inception” probably means _______.A. golden ageB. beginningC. boomingD. fading periodDThe past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists(人类学家). Descriptions like “Paleolith ic(旧石器时代)Man”，“Neolithic(新石器时代)Man”, etc, neatly sum up whole periods. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twenty-first century, they will surely choose the label “Legless Man”. Histories of the time will go something lik e this:“In the twenty-first century, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. And the surprising thing is that th ey didn’t use their legs even when they went on holiday. They built cable railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top of very huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were ruined by the presence of large car parks.”The future history books might also record that we lost the right of using our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird’s-eye view of the world or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way. When you travel by car or train, the unclear picture of the countryside constantly slides over the window. When you mention the most impressive place-names in the world, the typical 21st century traveler always says “I’ve been there.”—meaning“I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else.”When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By traveling like this, you skip all experience. The travel er on foot, on the other hand, lives in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his cars and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical tiredness. Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers.67. Anthropologists name man nowadays “Legless Man” because _______.A．people prefer cars, buses and trains B．people travel without using legsC．lifts prevent people from walking D．people use their legs less and less68. According to the passage, what might make people lose the right of using their eyes?A．The modem means of transportation. B．A bird’s-eye view of the world.C．The unclear sight from the vehicles. D．The fast-paced life style.69. From the passage, we know traveling at high speeds means _______.A．appreciating beautiful scenery B．experiencing life skillsC．focusing on the next destination D．feeling physical tiredness70. What does the author intend to tell us?A．Modem transportation devices have replaced legs.B．Traveling makes the world a small place.C．Human’s history develops very fast.D．The best way to travel is on foot.七选五Cold-Hearted YouthLaughter is a great thing. It has been proven to be physically and mentally effective on people ___71___. The reason for this is that people are laughing at the wrong things, particularly the youth. They find humor in things that people wouldn’t have generally found funny in the past. More an d more young people respond to negative situations with laughter. Their responses to negative situations are becoming increasingly worrying, and this needs to be addressed.___72___ You can find hundreds of clips showing people falling off from things or getting hurt so badly that they break bones or suffer major injuries. Unfortunately, not rushing to their aid or calling an ambulance, they double over in laughter.To make matters worse, many teens laugh not just at physical accidents; they are also failing to take important topics seriously, such as the government or the state of our world. Children and teens nowadays show alarming indifferenceand insensitivity toward things that should arouse serious thought and emotion. ___73___ The sad thing is, it’s not their fault.Teaching youth that violence is okay and entertaining, or teaching them that the state of our world is not a big deal is telling them not to be caring and concerned. They are the next generation, and they’re not going to be able to contribute to be world if important issues do not matter to them anymore. ___74___.As a whole, society heeds to concentrate on bringing back natural human emotion and easing up on the confirmation of indifference, violence, and carelessness. ___75___.A. Search online for videos of some accidents.B. Don’t try to laugh by putting someone else down.C. However, laughter can be bad, and is increasingly becoming so.D. We are humans, not cold machines, and we need to start acting that way.E. How can they help ot hers when they don’t take their physical or emotional pain seriously?F. The fact that the youth are always laughing at the wrong things have nothing to with education.G. I believe youth are laughing at serious subjects because they think important topics don’t matter to them anymore.第四部分书面表达（共两节，35分）第一节（15分）假如你是红星中学高三（1）班的学生李华，你将参加学校举行的英语口语，请根据以下提示写一篇竞选稿。

This section of the Employee Handbook will tell you how to organize videos.Each Main street Movies store has three main sections:1.New Releases Wall.2.Film library.3.Video Games.New Releases Wall. Almost 70 percent of movie rentals are new releases, and that is the first place where most customers go when they enter the store. The center section of shelves on this wall holds Hottest Hits. When new titles come into the store, place them on this wall in alphabetical order. The shelves beside Hottest Hits are called Recent Releases. The New Releases Wall, including the Hottest Hits and Recent Releases shelves, holds about 350 titles.Film Library. The thousands of titles in the Film Library are organized into categories. The films within each category are displayed alphabetically. Here are the categories and their two-letterwith foreign language subtitles. A sticker on the back of each box tells which type of film it is.Video Game. All the video games in Main street Movies are arranged in alphabetical order. Although video games represent only a small percentage of our inventory(库存), they are stolen more often than any other type of goods in our store. Therefore, video games are never displayed on the shelves. Shelves in the Video Game section hold cardboard with pictures and information about each game. When a customer wants to rent a particular game, you then find the game from the locked case behind the counter.56. Whom do you think this passage is most probably addressed to?A．The readers in the store.B．The manager of the store.C．The customers in the store.D．The salespersons of the store.57. In which order are the new movies moved in the store?A．From Hottest Hits to Film Library to Recent Releases.B．From Film Library to Hottest Hits to Recent Releases.C．From Recent Releases to Film Library to Hottest Hits.D．From Hottest Hits to Recent Releases to Film Library.58. Why can’t video games be seen on the shelves?A．Because they’ve been sold out.B．Because they’re in the storehouse.C．Because they’re in a locked case behind the counter.D．Because they represent a small percentage of the inventory.59. How can a customer find a film with foreign language subtitles?A. Check the computer.B. Look at the back of the box.C. Check the center section.D. Watch a few minutes of the film.BHearing VoicesWould you like to be an actor, but aren’t the right age or physical type for the part? Don’t give up: there may be a place for you in the world of voice-acting.Twenty-year-old Rickey Collins brings Tucker Foley to like in the cartoon Danny Phantom. In addition to many appearances on television and in movies, Rickey is a voice-over actor, someone we hear but don’t see. Rickey has acted since he was 6, both on and off camera. After school, his grandmother-a manager and acting coach-helped his develop his skills by doing voice exercises and reading aloud.V oice-over actors do many kinds of acting. They are the voices of cartoon characters on television, in movies and video games, and for communicating toys. In films, they replace the foreign language conversation with English version. They create crowd noises, make commercials, act in radio plays, and record telephone instructions and public announcements. They read books on tape and even record museum tours.Like other actors, voice-over actors need to understand scripts, interpret characters, and breathe correctly. They have to master voice techniques, such as pacing, volume, and range. Sometimes they use their normal voices; other times they change their voices to create different characters or noises. Rickey receives his Danny Phantom scripts only a few days before he tapes each episode(集). He rites helpful notes on the script to guide himself on speaking his part.Rickey practices, then tapes at the recording studio. He and the other cast members sit in a soundproof booth, acting out their characters as they read their lines into the microphones. “The cartoon gets created after we record the words, so we have to imagine everything in our mind,” days Rickey. Later, the recorded words, music, and sound effects are combined with the cartoon art to create the cartoon we enjoy on TV. Sound interesting? Maybe you can have a “voice” in acting after all!60. The sentence underlined in paragraph 2 means _______.A. Rickey draws the characterB. Rickey names Tucker FoleyC. Rickey makes the character seem realD. Rickey decides the future of Tucker Foley61. From the passage we can infer that _______.A. it’s very complex to become a cartoon film voice-over actorB. Rickey has been involved with acting most of his lifeC. Rickey was an actor when he was sixD. many people have nice voices62. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us that _______.A. a voice-over actor works very hardB. being a voice-over actor needs talentsC. being a voice-over actor requires skillsD. a voice-over actor has many techniques63. The information in this article would be most valuable to people _______.A. who want to build a career around their voicesB. who need to develop their stage-acting skillsC. who want to understand scriptwritingD. who need to practice voice exercisesCBasketball, Past and PresentIn 1891, a teacher invented a new exercise in Springfield, Massachusetts. A particularly cold winter meant that Dr. James Naismith’s students co u ldn’t exercis e outdoors, and he needed to find a way that would both entertain them and make sure they got enough exercise. He nailed a peach basket up at one end of the gym and began to develop the rules of what is now one of the most popular sports in the world: basketball.As colleges began to adopt the game at the turn of the 20th century, basketball undertook a number of rapid changes.

The parrot has learned to copy sounds that people make. Birds are not the only animals that can copy the noises they hear. Dolphins, bats, and some apes also copy sounds. Now we can add elephants to this list of copycats.Dr. JoycePoole is a zoologist. She studies the sounds of elephants. While she was in Kenya, she would hear strange noises made by Mlaika after sunset. Mlaika was a 10-year-old African elephant.Mlaika l ived near a highway. Dr. Poole says, “I could not tell the difference between Mlaika’s call and the distant truck noise.” She and other scientists studied Mlaika’s sounds. It turned out that Mlaika was copying the sounds of the trucks driving by. Why would Mlaika copy trucks that she heard going by on the highway? Animals that are able to copy sounds may enjoy practicing new sounds. When they are kept outside of their natural environment, they may copy unusual sounds. That may be why an elephant would copy the sound of a truck.“Mlaika was not the only copycat elephant,” Dr. Poole says. Calimero is a 23-year-old male African elephant. He spent 18 years with two female Asian elephants. Asian elephants make chirping sounds (sounds made by birds) to talk with one another. African elephants usually do not make chirping sounds. But Calimero now does. He is copying his Asian elephantfriends. Dr. Poole says that elephants need to form bonds with their family and friends. She says, “They make sounds to communicate with each other. When they are separated, they use sounds to keep in contact.”Parrots, dolphins, humans, and elephants show that being a copycat is one way that animals and people make new friends and keep old ones.56. According to the passage, what does Mlaika copy?A. The sound of people.B. The sound of trucks.C. The sound of Calimero.D. The sound of birds.57. Why is Calimeromentioned in the passage?A. To clarify the meaning of copycat elephants.B. To show the cleverness of African elephants.C. To add another example of copycat elephants.D. To introduce a special life skill of Asian elephants.58. From paragraph 4, we can know________.A. how long it takes for an elephant to learn a new soundB. why the African elephant can make chirping soundsC. why the Asian elephants make noises after sunsetD. how Asian and African elephants are alike59. According to the passage, why do some animals like to be copycats?A. To keep in touch with nature.B. To please people and other animals.C. To make new friends and keep old ones.D. To avoid the danger from the outside world.BMatthew Henson—Arctic ExplorerIn 1880, fourteen-year-old Matthew Henson loved to hear sailors tell tales of their exciting lives at sea. The travel, the adventure, the danger, and the steady pay were all attracting young Henson. One day, hefound a job as a cabin boy on a beautiful ship called the Katie Hinds.For the next five years, Henson sailed around the world. With the help of the ship’s captain and other members of the crew, Henson learned mathematics, navigation, history, geography, and many other subjects. By the time he left the Katie Hinds in 1885, Henson was well educated and had become an excellent seaman.Unable to find work anywhere else, Henson took a job in a hat shop in Washington, D.C. One day in 1887, a man came in to buy a hat. The man, Robert Peary, asked the owner if he knew anyone with experience at sea. Peary would soon travel to South America for the U.S. government. He needed experienced men to accompany him. The shop owner knew about his young employee’s skills and experience on ocean journeys, so he introduced Peary to Henson.Using his map-reading and sailing skills, Henson proved himself to be a worthy and smartseaman. Peary soon made Henson his assistant, and they became close friends. One day Peary told Henson about his real dream: to be the first man to stand on “the top of the world” at the North Pole. He asked Henson to help him make his dream come true. Over the next five years, the two explorers made two trips together to the Arctic. However, they were not able to reach the pole either time. The cold, wind, and ice were worse than either of them had ever imagined.In 1908, Peary and Henson were ready to make their final attempt at reaching the North Pole. Both men were over forty years old. The years of hardship in the arctic cold had made them suffer a lot. This would be their last chance. With four Inuit guides, they made a mad rush straight across the ice toward the pole. Peary’s feet were injured and he had to be pulled on a dogsled. In April 1909, Henson’s instruments showed they were standing at the North Pole. Together Henson and Peary planted the American flag in the snow.In later years, Robert Peary and Henson were greatly honored for their achievements. Today, the two friends and fellow explorers lie in heroes’ graves not far apart in the Arlington National Cemetery.60. In paragraph1, the author shows how Henson became________.A. a skilled seamanB.a highly educatedcaptainC. employed in a restaurantD. interested in helping others61. Paragraph 2 mainly tells us ________.A. how Matthew Henson met Robert PearyB. why Matthew Henson went to the hat shopC. why Matthew Henson stopped working on the Katie HindsD. how Robert Peary knew that Matthew Henson had sea experience62. On their trip to the North Pole, Henson and Peary could best be compared to________.A. treasure hunters seeking big fortunesB. generals seeking power over another countryC. soldiers going to war to fight for their freedomD.fighters performing a task in anunknown land63. The information presented in this passage is mainly organized________.A. by cause and effectB. by comparing and contrastingC. in the order thatthe events happenedD. with main ideas and supporting examplesCHuman beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more than two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone against another. In this way, they broke off pieces from one of the stones. These chips of stone were usually sharp on one side. People used them for cutting meat and skin from dead animals, and also for making other tools out of wood. Human beings needed touse tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily.Working with tools also helped to develop human intelligence. The human brain grew bigger, and human beings began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the first tools that people used, and perhaps it is the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key to success of mankind.Since 1960 a new kind of tool has appeared. This is the silicon chip (硅芯片). It is smaller than a finger nail, but it can store lots of information. It is an electronic brain. Every year these chips get cleverer, but their size gets smaller, and their cost gets less. They are used in watches, calculators and intelligent machines that we can use in many ways. In the future we will not need to work with tools in the old way. Machines will do everything for us. People will have plenty of spare time. But what will they do with it?Human beings used stone chips for more than two million years, but human life changed very little in that time. We have used silicon chips for only a few years, but life is changing faster every day. What will life be like twenty years from now? What will the world be like two million years from now?64. From paragraph 1, we can know ________.A. why early human beings cut skin from dead animalsB. how early human beings discovered the toolsC. what early human beings used the tools forD. what food early human beings stored65. The stone chip is thought to be the most important tool because it________.A. was very important to the development of mankindB. led to the invention of machines in the early timeC. developed cooking abilities of mankindD. was one of the first tools of mankind66. The silicon chip is mentioned in the passage to________.A. show the changes of toolsB. introduce a new kind of toolC. give an example of using toolsD. compare the effects of two kinds of tools67. At the end of the passage the author seems to suggest that life in future is________.A. out of orderB. less colorfulC. hard to predictD. full of meaningsDNo one should be forced to wear a uniform under any circumstance. Uniforms are controlling the human spirit and totally unnecessary in a democratic(民主的) society. Uniforms tell the world that the person who wears one has no value as an individual but only lives to function as a part of the whole. The individualin a uniform loses all self-worth.There are those who say that wearing a uniform gives a person a sense of identificationwith a larger, more important concept. What could be more important than the individual himself? If an organization is so weak that it must rely on cloth and buttons to inspire its members, that organization has no right to continue its existence.Others say that the practice of making persons wear uniforms, say in school, gets rid of all envy and competition in a matter of dress, such that a poor person who cannot afford good-quality clothing is not to be looked down upon by a wealthy person who wears expensive clothing. Those persons ignore the concepts as freedom of choice, motivation, and individuality. If all persons were to wear the same clothing, why would anyone struggle to be better? It is only a short step from forcing everyone to drive the same car, have the same type of food. When this happens, all motivation to improve one’s life is removed. Why would parents bother to work hard so that their children could have a better life than they had when they know that their children are going to be forced to have exactly the same life as they had?Uniforms also hurt the economy(经济). Right now, billions of dollars are spent on the fashion industry yearly. Thousands of people are employed in designing, creating, and marketing different types of clothing. If everyone were forced to wear uniforms, artistic personnel would be unnecessary. Salesmen would be extra as well. Why bother to sell the only items that are available? The wearing of uniforms would destroy the fashion industry which in turn would have a wave effect on such industries as advertising and sales promotion. Without advertising, newspapers, magazines, and television would not be able to remain in business. Our entire information and entertainment industries would collapse.68. Why does the author discuss forcing everyone to buy the same car or eat the same food?A. To show that freedom of choice is absolute in modern society.B. To suggest what would happen if uniforms became compulsory.C. To predict the way the society will be in the next few generations.D. To show that the government has too much control over people’s lives.69. The last word of the passage “collapse” probably means________.A. failB. riseC. disappearD. struggle70. The author’s primary purpose in writing this passage was to________.A. show that uniforms are not possible in a democratic societyB. advise the government to change the rules of wearing uniformsC. advocate stronger governmental controls on the wearing of uniformsD. convince the reader that uniforms have more disadvantages than advantages第二节（共５小题；每小题２分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
