She was carrying her handbag in one hand and a plastic carrier bag in the other. There was nobody else in the street except two youths. They were standing in a dark shop doorway. One of them was very tall with fair hair, the other was short and fat with a beard.The youths waited for a few moments, and then ran quickly and quietly towards Mrs Riley. The tall youth held her from behind while the other youth tried to seize her handbag.Suddenly, Mrs Riley threw the tall youth over her shoulder. He crashed into the other youth and they both landed on the ground. Without speaking, Mrs Riley struck both of them on the head with her handbag, and walked calmly away.The two surprised youths were still sitting on the ground when Mrs Riley crossed the street towards a door with a lighted sign above it. Mrs Riley paused, turned round, smiled at the youths and walked into the South West London Judo（柔道） Club.56. The two youths were standing in a dark shop doorway because ________.A. they had nothing to doB. they were homelessC. they were waiting for a victimD. they were guarding the shop57. What did Mrs Riley do to the two youths?A. She hurt them seriously.B. She taught them a lesson.C. She reported them to the police.D. She sent them to a judoclub.58. The story tells about an elderly woman who ___________.A. went shopping at nightB. was on her way homeC. had just left a shopping centerD. had a skill of self-defenceBDear Customers,I love slipping into a comfortable chair for a long read－as I relax into the chair, I also relax into the author’s words, stories, and ideas. The physical book is so elegant that it disappears into the background, and what remains is the author’s world.Today, we at Amazon are excited to announce Mindle, a wireless, portable reading device with instant access to more than 90,000 books, magazines, and newspapers.We’ve been working on Mindle for more than three years. Our top design objective was for Mindle to disappear in your hands－to get out of the way－so you can enjoy your reading. We also wanted to go beyond the physical book. Mindle is wire less, so whether you’re lying in bed or riding a train, you can think of a book, and have it in less than 60 seconds. No computer is needed－you do your reading directly from the device. We chose the same wireless technology used in advanced mobile phones. But unlike mobile phones, there are no monthly wireless bills, no service or data plans, and no yearly contracts. There is no software to install. We want you to get lost in your reading and not in the technology. Mindle uses a new kind of display called electronic paper. Sharp and natural with no strong light, reading on Mindle is nothing like reading from a computer screen. Mindle weighs only 10.3 ounces－less than a paperback－but can carry two hundred books.Enjoy learning about Mindle and many thanks!Leff BezosFounder & CEO59. This passage most probably is a（n） _______.A. advertisementB. news storyC. lab reportD. letter of thanks60. From the passage we learn that Mindle is a device which _______.A. has neither wires nor weightB. is operated by a computerC. disappears while you readD. can find a book within one minute61. With the device, the reader is able to ___________.A. enjoy reading when driving a carB. improve reading skillsC. gain access to free softwareD. get rid of heavy books made of paper62. Different from mobile phones, Mindle ________.A. has a much more friendly screenB. can work in the absence of electricityC. doesn’t involve regular feesD. is wireless and can be used anywhereCSome people bring out the best in you in a way that you might never have fully realized on your own. My mom was one of those people.My father died when I was nine months old, making my mom a single mother at the age of eighteen. While I was growing up, we lived a very hard life. We had little money, but my mom gave me a lot of love. Each night, she sat me on her lap and spoke the words that would change my life, “Kemmons, you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it.”At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never walk again. Every day, my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me that no matter what those doctors said, I could walk again if I wanted to badly enough. She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her. A year later, I returned to school —walking on my own!When the Great Depression （大萧条） hit, my mom lost her job. Then I left school to support the both of us. At that moment, I was determined never to be poor again.Over the years, I experienced various levels of business success. But the real turning point occurred on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951. I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they charged an extra $2 for each child. That was too expensive for the average American family. I told my wife that I was going to open a motel （汽车旅馆） for families that would never charge extra for children. There were plenty of doubters at that time.Not surprisingly, mom was one of my strongest supporters. She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style. As in any business, we experienced a lot of challenges. But with my mother’s words deeply rooted in my soul, I never doubted we would succeed. Fifteen years later, we had the largest hotel system in the world — Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1,759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $ 1 billion a year.You may not have started out life in the best situation. But if you can find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you.63. What Kemmons’ mom often told him during his childhood was ______.A. caringB. movingC. encouragingD. interesting64. What caused Kemmons to start a motel by himself?A. His terrible experience in the hotel.B. His previous business success of various levels.C. His mom’s support.D. His wife’s suggestion.65. Which of the following led to Kemmons’ success according to the passage?A. Self-confidence, hard work, higher education and a poor family.B. Mom’s encouragement, clear goals, self-confidence and hard work.C. Clear goals, mom’s encouragement, a poor family and higher education.D. Mom’s encouragement, a poor f amily, higher education and opportunities.DIf English means endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Haven’t you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.The study also found the effect is greater the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of“early bilinguals”who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.Scans showed that grey matter density（密度）in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference.“Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,”said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills.“Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible（灵活的），”he said.“You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and 34. Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better.“Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,”explained the scientists.66. The main subject talked about in this passage is_________________.A. science on learning a second languageB. man’s ability of learning a second languageC. language can help brain powerD. language learning and maths study67. In the second paragraph, the writer mentions“exercise”in order to ______________.A. say language is also a kind of physical laborB. prove that one needs more practice when he（she）is learning a languageC. to show the importance of using the language when you learn the languageD. make people believe language learning helps grey matter work well68. The underlined word“bilingual”probably means________________.A. a researcher on language learningB. a second language learnerC. a person who can speak two languagesD. an active language learner69. We may know from the scientific findings that______________.A. the earlier you start to learn a second language the higher the grey matter density isB. there is no difference between a later second language learner and one who doesn’t know a second languageC. the experience of learning a second language has bad effect on people’s brainD. the ability of learning a second language is changing all the time 70. In the last two paragraphs, the author wants to tell ustha_________________.A. learning a second language is the same as studying mathsB. early learning of a second language helps you a great deal in study other subjectsC. Italian is the best choice for you as a second languageD. you’d better choose the ages between 2 and 34 to learn a second language.五、任务型阅读请认真阅读下面短文, 并根据所读内容在文章后图表中的空格里填入最适当的单词。

During those years I was much taller than most of my peers (同龄人). To keep others’ attention off my unusual height, I usually went along with the crowd who liked playing jokes, some of which were hurtful and even harmful, on other kids at school.Having seen my behavior, my parents constantly reminded me of the golden rule: To treat others as I would like to be treated. Many times, I was criticized for the hurtful things that I did to others. My parents wanted me to be a leader who could set a good example to others — to be a noble person. They taught me to set my own goals and do the best at everything that I set out to do. My father told me over and over again to be a great man and a leader that I was supposed to be. I knew that he was right, so I tried my best to follow his advice.Once I focused on being the best that I could be at basketball and became the leader of my team. I took the responsibility to set a good example more seriously. I sometimes made mistakes, but humans are sure to make mistakes. I continued to look for opportunities to set a good example because of my father’s advice.“Be a leader, not a followe r. Since people have to look up to you, give them a good reason to do so.”40.

Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment. As a big plant-eater, it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原)surroundings in which it lives, therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat.It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas. In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other plant-eaters.Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants make open spaces, allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor. In such situations, the forests become suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well.What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species. If the elephant disappears, scientists say, many other animalswill also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.5.What is the passage mainly about?A.Disappearance of African elephants.B.Forests and savannas as habitats for African elephants.C.The effect of African elephants' search for food.D.The eating habit of African elephants.6.What does the underlined phrase “setting the terms〞 most probably mean?A.Fixing the time.B.Worsening the state.C.Improving the quality.D.Deciding the conditions.7.What do we know about the open spaces in the passage?A.They result from the destruction of rain forests.B.They provide food mainly for African elephants.C.They are home to many endangered animals.D.They are attractive to plant-eating animals of different kinds.8.The passage is developed mainly by _____.A.showing the effect and then explaining the causesB.pointing out similarities and differencesC.describing the changes in space orderD.giving examplesCChina's first space-based science fiction blockbuster (大片) The Wandering Earth has stood out among the Lunar New Year's films, winning both the box office and reputation and regarded as a milestone (里程碑) in the development of China's science fiction industry.The film was adapted from the original work of Chinese science fiction writer Liu Cixin and tells the story of human beings fleeing the solar system with the Earth.The New York Times said that after years of hard work, China has joined the global competition for sci-fi movies. In the past, Hollywood had an unbreakable leading position in this field. The Wandering Earth is expected to open the dawning of a new era in science fiction films, breaking the monopoly (垄断) of sci-fi movies by Hollywood.The sci-fi movie featuring outer space is considered the spire (塔尖) of film-making. Such films require advanced visual effects to create realistic space scenes, with grand narrative themes to immerse the audience in the film, and also need to be carefully designed by the manufacturer to avoid logical and scientific mistakes. Therefore, such films usually require huge capital investment, the formation of advanced technical teams and excellent management teams. Even if these conditions are complete, accomplishing such movies will be a high-risk challenge.Liu Cixin said that 75 percent of the special effects in the movie were completed by the Chinese team. From the audience reaction, the Chinese team's work was not inferior to the top team in Hollywood. The film has been released in North America and has an 8/10 rating on movie website IMDb, which is already a good result.In addition to special effects, what is even more surprising is the progress of Chinese film narrative skills, containing both universal concerns and thecharacteristics of Chinese culture. Science fiction movies generally require a sudden global crisis and a creative solution.Since the release of the film 2021: A Space Odyssey (1968), space-type sci-fi movies have gone through more than 50 years of history. Almost all of this half-century belongs to the U.S. From the Star Wars series to the recent years of Gravity (2021) and Interstellar (2021), Hollywood has always been at the forefront of creativity and technology in this field, constantly shocking the audience. However, an new era may be opened by China.9. The author mentions the opinions of The New York Times in Paragraph 3 to show _______.A. the leading position of the USA in sci-fi moviesB. the great impact of the Chinese movie The Wandering EarthC. the difficulty in making outstanding sci-fi moviesD. The Wandering Earth has won great box-office and reputation10. According to the text, why sci-fi movies are considered the spire of the film-making industry?A. Because they often need huge investment.B. Because they can attract a large number of audience by the special effects.C. Because they are always about a global disaster and a related creative solution.D. Because they are most demanding in special effects, technical and managementteams.11. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. The first ice-breaking Chinese sci-fi movieB. How to make a successful sci-fi movieC. The monopoly of the US in sci-fi movie fieldD.

I joinedWeight Watchers, attended their meetings and started following their Weight-Loss System.I focused on the plan with determination and never missed a weekly meeting! I discovered that I enjoyed the benefits of having the help and support of others.I also read the weekly online e-newsletter and was inspired by the stories, recipes and information offered there, I also read magazines produced by Weight Watchers, which have great tips and new ideas in each issue.It’s hard for me to even remember the person I was before my amazing change.I didn’t walk anywhere and couldn’t wash my car or walk my dog. Today I do these simple tasks without even thinking about them. But the change didn’t happen overnight. I had to exercise with patience and perseverance (坚持). I decided to take it one day at a time and stick with if for good.The “new me〞 is more self-confident and healthier. I love how I feel now. I have more energy and feel like I’m 25 again.

Which of the following word will you use to describe the writer?A. Weak.B. Calm.C. Patient.D. Silent.CGood music in the life of a child provides many benefits. Music has the ability to change a child’s mind, soul and body. Because music can create deep feelings and it can have a calming effect on a stressful child. According to many classroom teachers, children perform better under the influence of appropriate music. This is true even for older children. According to the Profiles of the SAT Program, students who take part in music scored much higher on the standardized test than those not involved in a music program.Children can benefit from many types of music. Nursery songs, songs of nature, holiday songs and religious songs all teach children different things about the worldaround them. These songs should be incorporated (使并入) into a child’s life. In this way, music becomes more than just rhythms and sounds---it becomes a means for learning about different aspects of life.Music helps develop a child’s intellectual abilities. On the left side of the brain are areas responsible for reasoning and language acquisition (知识技能的获得). These are areas that music can influence. Therefore, music can help children process language more efficiently. As a result, a child’s intelligence is improved through music.Different styles of music can help children understand the culture of others. Each culture has a unique style of music. For example, a child who is exposed to music from AFRIC, India, China, and Europe will come to understand and respect those cultures as well as enjoy the difference forms of musical creativity. This also helps children understand how music can reach across the world and unite cultures.Music has the ability to produce skills within children that will benefit them throughout their lifetime. Success in life requires such skills as problem-solving, creative thinking, risk-taking, effective communication and good teamwork. Participation in music requires study skills and communication skills.9. Why is music able to influence children’s mind and soul?A. Because music can calm down stressful children.B. Because music makes children have a good impression on everything.C. Because music teaches children how to relax.D. Because background music makes children get high scores in exams.10. Good music in the life of a child provides many benefits, because ________.A. one kind of music can teach children different things about the world around them.B. music can affect the right side of the brain to improve intelligence.C. different styles of music can help children understand their own culture.D. music helps children develop different skills.11. What’s the pur pose of the author listing the example of the boy in Paragraph 4?A. To let children know the uniqueness of music among different countries.B. To prove the effect of music on helping children understand world cultures.C. To make children enjoy worldwide music.D. To explain how to learn different cultures.12. What is the main idea of the passage?A. An introduction to different kinds of music.B. Music has a positive effect on culture.C. Music benefits children a lot.D. Advice on how to create music.DThere once lived in China a very foolish king and queen. One day the queen had a baby daughter. When they saw their baby, they both cried out, “My goodness! How small it is! It’s hairless and toothless! It’s a monster!〞 they sent for all the doctors in the country and ordered them to prepare some medicine for her.“When she drinks your medicine, she must grow to the right size and have hair and teeth,〞the king said, “If you don’t do this, you’ll have a beating.〞The doctors thought it impossible, but they dared not say anything against the king’s order. Just then and old doctor stepped forward. “Oh, we shall certainly obey your order,〞he said, “but it takes time. We have to dig a mineral from the KunLun Mountains when the snow melts for the second time. The snow melts on those mountains only once in six years. So we need twelve years.〞At last the king agreed and the doctors took away the little princess. On her twelfth birthday, they brought her back to her parents with long black hair and beautiful teeth. The king and queen were very happy and gave the doctors expensive presents.13.
