Some re aders even jumped to an absurd conclusion that “EI accounts for 80 percent of success.”I never made the claim that EI matters more than IQ for acade mic achievements. My argument is actually that emotional an d social skills give people advantages in areas where such ab ilities make the most difference, like love and leadership. EI d oes better than IQ in “soft” areas, where intelligence matters r elatively little for success.IQ is a much stronger predictor (预测指标) than EI of which jobs or professions people can enter. However, having enough intelligence to hold a given job does no t by itself predict whether one will be a star performer or rise t o management or leadership positions in one’s field. In part th is is because everyone at the top level of a given profession h as already been examined for intelligence. At those top levels a high IQ becomes a basic ability, one needed just to get into and stay in the game.The one place, I expect, we will be seeing more data showing a relationship between skills in the emotional and social area and school performance, will be in studies of children who hav e gone through social/emotional learning (SEL) programs. Th ese courses give students the self-management skills they need to do better on academic achiev ement scores. A study from the University of Illinois finds arou nd a 10 percent increase in achievement test scores among t hese students. Probably, the SEL programs would also have meant higher scores on the particular assessment of EI used i n the Australian study, and so if they had tested such children , there may well have been a positive connection. Therefore, learning seems to be another area where EI may matter — whether more than IQ is a question based on experi ence. This is what I want to explain on this website.4. The author writes the passage to ________.A. state his new opinion on IQ and EIB. explain the importance of IQ and EIC. argue for his study into school learningD. clear up some misunderstandings of his book5. According to the author, EI matters more than IQ for ______ __.A. winning a quiz; becoming a star performerB. being a leader; receiving an MBA degreeC. family relations; being promoted at workD. becoming an accountant; getting an interview6. The author might agree that ________.A. IQ determines one’s basic ability to enter a certain fieldB. the subtitle of his book is seldom misunderstoodC. EI matters more than IQ for academic achievementD. success has everything to do with intelligence7. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that ________.A. the two same studies have opposite findingsB. the SEL programs attempt to promote learning with EIC. studen ts’ school performance is decided by their EID. the SEL programs improve students’ scores rapidlyCHave you ever noticed tiny raised areas on the branches of a tree? These may have been insects. These small insects feed on tree sap (汁液). Insects on urban trees are notably more abundant than th ose on rural trees. As a result, urban trees suffer from heavy i nfestations (害虫横行), and are often unhealthy or die. To protect and restore urb an trees’ health, we need to determine the factors that make t hese tree pests more successful in urban habitats.Living organisms interact closely with their environment. The warmer, more drought-stressed trees harbor more successful pests than cooler, less drought-stressed trees. As cities and natural habitats become hotter a nd drier, damaging insects will become more abundant on urb an trees.Trees within urban forests are valuable economically and for t he environmental sustainability (可持续性) of the region. More than half of the world’s population lives in cities. Across the globe, people are moving into cities at a f aster rate than ever.Rapid growth may turn cities into places with harder conditions. Although cities are primarily made of buildings, roads, parki ng lots, and vehicles, there are still plants in them. The trees within a city are referred to as the urban forest. Urban forests offer very big benefits to human and environmental health. Th ey improve air and water quality, provide habitat for wildlife. c ool down temperatures air and water quality, provide habitat f or wildlife, cool down temperatures and beautify our environm ent. They make cities livable.However, being a city tree is not easy. Heat released by hum an activities is trapped in cities. As a result, temperatures in ur ban areas are often warmer than their surrounding rural areas . We call this urban warming or the urban heat island effect. U rban habitats are mostly made of surfaces of asphalt (沥青 ) and concrete. These surfaces reduce the amount of rainw ater that reaches tree roots. As a result, urban forests may suf fer, which can negatively affect people and the environment. What can we do to restore urban forests? Regular irrigation w hen possible may help keep pest populations under control. P lanting tree species that are suitable to handle heat and droug ht stress would also reduce the occurrence of insect pest outb reaks.8. Why do urban trees suffer from heavier infestations?A. Because urban insects are more abundant.B. Because more people have come to cities.C. Because cities become hotter and drier.D. Because more tree sap can be fed on.9. What causes the urban heat island effect according to the t ext?A. The use of asphalt and concrete.B. The heat that is trapped in urban areas.C. The lack of unban forests.D. The lower temperatures in rural areas.10. Which of the following word can replace the underlined wo rd in Paragraph 5?A. Watering.B. Inspection.C. Pest killing.D. Tree planting.11. What would be the author’s purpose of writing the text?A. Show how to solve the urban warming.B. Display the importance of urban trees.C. Tell us methods to protect urban trees.D. Call for people to protect urban trees.DChildren of all ages gathered in New York City recently for the International Toy Fair. Hidden among already popular toys were new, high-tech educational products. Toymakers are working to create t hese products for improving a child’s emotional intelligence. Companies showed off their products last week at New York’s Jacob Javitz Convention Center.PleIQ is a set of plastic toy blocks. It uses visual reality techno logy to teach words, numbers and other things, Edison Durán directs the company that makes PleIQ. She showed people at the toy fair how virtual images appear on the blocks when the y are held in front of a tablet camera, PleIQ has children act a s teacher or guide to a companion character.On the other side of the convention center, Karen Hu from an other company demonstrated an educational robot called Wo obo. The robot comes programmed with educational games a nd activities. Children use its touch screen face to get them st arted. Hu described how the robot can help a child who has a utism (自闭症). “The child can communicate with Woobo and follow some of the instructions Woobo is giving because he thinks of this as a companion instead of a parent or someone else telling hi m to certain things.”At the EQtainment stand，sales director Jonathan Erickson explained the company’s toys. “The purpose of all of our products is to develop emotional and social intelligence•” he said Erickson showed off a board game called “Q’s Race to the Top”. He said the game got his 4-year-old daughter to open up. “The biggest thing is her talking. And that’s the key of all this—getting her feelings expressed out. Like, ‘Hey, what does it fe el like to be sad? Or how does it feel like to be happy?’”It remains to be seen whether a game or toy can improve em otional intelligence. But toymakers are doing what they can to help parents in their efforts to raise well-rounded children.12. How does PleIQ instruct children to learn?A. By playing the role of a companion.B. By giving dire ct guidance.C. By taking photos with a camera.D. By presenting visual images.13. What can be inferred about Woobo from Paragraph 4?A. It is programmed to replace teachers.B. It may be goo d company for kids.C. It can get started automatically.D. It is intended to d esign games.14. What does Jonathan Erickson think of his toys?A. They are quite easy to operate.B. They can teach children numbers.C. They help kids express themselves well.D. T hey can show their emotions clearly.15. What is the best title of the text?A. Toys help to build emotional intelligenceB. Educational toys sell well in the Toy FairC. Toymakers are making profits in educationD.

Grammar and vocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passages below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Your comfort zone is basically all of the situation in which you feel confident and “at home”; for example, doing the job you’ve done for a long time, (21)________（socialize）with a group of people you know well or living in a place you (22)________(live）all your life. Stepping out of your comfort zone, for example, starting a new job, going to a party where you don’t know anyone or moving to another part of the country, can be frightening, but (23)________ you do so, your confidence grows.Confident people also have comfort zones, but the difference between them and people (lack) (24)________confidence is (25)________they are willing to take risks and try new things (26)______ ______ ______ their fears.Confidence comes from taking action, not from inaction; each time you succeed in doing something (27)________ you fear, your comfort zone will expand.

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.It is a familiar scene these days: employees taking newly laid-off co-workers out for a drink for comfort. But which side deserves 31 more, the jobless or the still employed? On March 6, researchers at a conference at the University of Cambridge heard data suggesting it's the latter: compared with people who are straight-up laid off, those who keep their job but under a constant threat of losing it suffer a great 32 _ in mental well-being.Brendan Burchell, a Cambridge sociologist, presented his analysis based on various surveys conducted across Europe. The data suggest that employed people who feel insecure in their jobs show 33 levels of anxiety and depression as those who are unemployed. Although a newly jobless person’s mental health may “bottom out” after about six months, and then even begin to improve, the mental state of people who are 34 worried about losing their job “just continues to get worse and worse”, Burchell says.Evolutionary psychologists support this theory by arguing that human beings feel more stress during times of 35 because they sense an immediate but invisible threat. Patients have been known to experience higher levels of anxiety, for example, while waiting for examination results than knowing what they are suffering from—even if the result is cancer. It's better to get the bad news and start doing something about it rather than wait with anxiety. When the 36___ con tinues, people stay in a nonstop “fight or flight” response, which leads to 37 stress.But not every employee in insecure industries has such a 38 view, Burchell says. In general, women get on better. While reporting higher levels of anxiety than men when directly __39 , women scored lower in stress on the GHQ 12, even when they had a job they felt insecure about losing. As Burchell explains, “For women, most studies show that any job— it doesn't matter whether it is secure or insecure —gives p sychological improvement over unemployment.” Burchell supposes that the difference in men is that they tend to feel pressure not only to beemployed, but also to be the 40 breadwinner, and that more of a man’s self-worth depends on his job.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.As computer technology has improved, today’s onl ine environments have become more complex and realistic. One website that has 41 over six million Internet users is Second Life. Second Life is a three-dimensional (3-D) online world where people work, shop, sell and trade items, meet others, go to con certs and much more. Users, who are called “residents,” create their own characters, or “avatars,” They use their avatars to 42 Second Life’s virtual world.Just like any country, Second Life has its own 43 . Using a credit card, users can buy “Linden Dollars,” the official currency of Second Life. With Linden dollars, they can 44 land or even an entire island where they can build and decorate their own house. Land is treated as a valuable commodity （商品） in Second Life. Residents can choose to rent or sell their land to other users, and they can earn real money from these 45 _ .When residents want to be 46 , they can use their avatars to interact with others. There are games, shopping malls, clubs, and many kinds of stores 47 to residents. With so many opportunities for interesting things to do and see, it’s easy to see why so many users devote so much time to the site.Second Life offers users a quick and easy 48 from the real world. Many residents see this as one of the main 49 of using the site. Spending time on Second Life allows them to escape the stresses and problems of their daily lives. If a user is having a stressful day at work, she can visit a beautiful island, go skiing, or even fly to another planet during her lunch break.50 escaping the stress of their daily lives, users can also escape who they are in the real world and live out their fantasies. 51 , residents can change their occupations, physical appearance, and even their nationalities. A doctor from the United States can be a Brazilian musician on Second Life. 52 , Second Life lets users live in a world without 53 .Although Second Life started as a way for people to escape the real world, it has become more and more 54 to the real world in many ways. Now on Second Life, some countries have virtual embassies, businesses have meetings in 55 rooms, and universities have places wherestudents can view the campus and take classes. Today, Second Life allows users to experience both fantasy and reality in the same place.41. A. persuaded B. devoted C. attracted D. contacted42. A. explore B. create C. fight D. approach43.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. （A）Behind most of the bad things we do to our bodies as adults, eating more than we should is the idea we carry with us from childhood. On one hand, we assume that we are indestructible. On the other hand, we think that any damage we impose on ourselves can be undone when we finally clean up our act.If the evidence for how wrong the first idea is isn’t apparent when you stand naked in front of the mirror, just wait. But what if you eat right and drop all your bad habits? Is there still time to repair the damage?To a surprising degree, the answer is yes. Over the past five years, scientists have collected a wealth of data about what happens when aging people with bad habits decide to turn their lives around.The heartening conclusion: the body has an amazing ability to heal itself, provided the damage is not too great.The effects of some bad habits —smoking, in particular—can haunt you for decades. But the damage from other habits can be largely healed.“Any time you improve your behavior and make lifestyle changes, they make a difference from that point on.” says Dr. Jeffrey Koplan. “Maybe not right away. It’s like slamming on the brakes. You do need a certain distance. ”But the distance can be remarkably short. Consider the recent announcements from the front lines of medical research:—A study concluded that women who consume as little as two servings of fish a week cut their risk of suffering a stroke to half that of women who eat less than one serving of fish a month. —The day you quit smoking, the carbon monoxide levels in your body drop dramatically. Within weeks, your blood becomes less sticky and your risk of dying from a heart attack starts to decline…Adopting healthy habits w on’t cure all that bothers you, of course. But doctors believe that many chronic diseases—from high blood pressure to heart disease and even some cancers—can be warded off with a few sensible changes in lifestyle.Not sure where to start? Surprisingly, it doesn’t matter, since one positive change usually leads to another. Make enough changes, and you’ll discover you’ve adopted a new way of life.56. Most people with bad habits of eating more than they should believe that ______.A. they can never change the habits that have haunted them for decadesB. their bodies cannot be damaged by the bad habitsC. their bodies can heal all the damage without the help from outsideD. they can force themselves to clean up the had habits later57. The evidence against the assumption that we are indestructible_____.A. is seldom apparentB. is clearly shown in the mirrorC. will appear obvious sooner or laterD. is still a question58. According to the recent announcements______.A. women should eat as much fish as possibleB. women are at a higher risk of suffering a stroke than menC. men don’t have to eat as much fish as womenD. eating a little more fish can improve women’s health59. It is implied in the passage that______ .A. smokers have lower levels of carbon monoxide than non-smokersB. the blood of smokers is more sticky than that of non-smokersC. smokers will be unlikely to die from heart attack if they quit smokingD. chronic diseases can be cured if we drop our habit of smoking（B）Beijing is hardly alone in its air pollution problems. The world Health Organization has said that roughly half of the world’s urban population is exposed to pollution at least 2.5 times higher than it recommends.While it may take years to fix this global problem, innovative minds in the Asia region have come up with creative solutions for living with air pollution.DIY PurifierThomas Talhelm started worrying about the air inside his Beijing home during “airpocalypse”(空气末日) in 2013 wh en Beijing’s air quality index skyrocketedto a terrifying 755.The scholar couldn’t afford the luxury of an expensive air purifier. “Filters (过滤器) are actually very simple—a high efficient filter is all you need to get over96% of the PM2.5,” he said.With three of his friends, Talhelm created Smart Air, an air purifier consisting of a basic household fan with a high efficient filter attached to it.It works as efficiently as the big brands selling for thousands of dollars, removing more than 90 p ercent of PM2.5 in your room, according to Talhelm’s research. Invisible MaskInfipure’s “nose mask”claims to cut 99% of PM2.5 without the trouble ofa surgical face mask.The filters, made from special materials, are inserted into your nose and aim to be undetectable.“People care about their health, but don’t want all the downsides that comewith a traditional face mask,” Infipure co-founder Francis Law explained. Plant BackpackTaiwanese artist Chui Chih has designed a survival device for an apocalyptic world. Named Voyage on the Planet, a potted plant is housed inside a clear backpackhooked up to two tubes to bring fresh air to a face mask. It’s a bold, abstract idea from an oxygen tank.Smog VacuumDaan Roosegaarde has been working on a smog vacuum that will suck pollutants from the sky to the ground like a vacuum, making way for clean air.A byproduct of this smog vacuum, namely The Smog Free Tower, is the “smog ring”—a piece of jewelry made from smog particulates(微粒).“The pollution we suck up, the small particulates, we don’t throw them away.We put them under pressure for a couple of weeks and they crystallize(结晶),creating something like a diamond,” Roosegaarde explains.60. Thomas Talhelm invented Smart Air for all the following reasons except _______.A. the high price of the big brandsB. the poor quality of the indoor airC. the help from three of his friendsD. the simple principle behind the device61. If someone wants to travel around in those polluted days, which product will he mostprobably choose for the sake of convenience?A. Smart Air.B. The Smog Free Tower.C. Voyage on the Planet.D. Infipure’s nose mask.62. In which solution the inventor also makes use of the dust collected from the polluted air?A. Invisible Mask.B. Smog Vacuum.C. Plant Backpack.D. DIY Purifier.（C）A scientist working at her lab bench and a six-month-old baby playing with his food might seem to have little in common. After all, the scientist is engaged in serious research to uncover the very nature of the physical world, and the baby is, well, just playing…right? Perhaps, butsome developmental psychologists have argued that this“play”is more like a scientific investigation than one might think.Take a closer look at the baby playing at the table. Each time the bowl of rice is pushed over the table edge, it falls to the ground—and, in the process, it brings out important evidence about how physical objects interact; bowls of rice do not float in mid-air, but require support to remain stable. It is likely that babies are not born knowing this basic fact of the universe; nor are they ever clearly taught it. Instead, babies may form an understanding of object support through repeated experiments and then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how objects interact. Though their ranges and tools differ, the baby’s investigation and the scientist’s experiment appear to share the same aim(to learn about the natural world), overall approach (gathering direct evidence from the world), and logic (are my observations what I expected?).Some psychologists suggest that young children learn about more than just the physical world in this way—that they investigate human psychology and the rules of language using similar means. For example, it may only be through repeated experiments, evidence gathering, and finally overturning a theory that a baby will come to accept the idea that other people can have different views and desires from what he or she has, for example, unlike the child, Mommy actually doesn’t like Dove chocolate.Viewing childhood development as a scientific investigation throws light on how children learn, but it also offers an inspiring look at science and scientists. Why do young children and scientists seem to be so much alike? Psychologists have suggested that science as an effort —the desire to explore, explain, and understand our world—is simply something that comes from our babyhood. Perhaps evolution provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds, and adult scientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children. The same cognitive (认知的) systems that make young children feel good about figuring something out may have been adopted by adult scientists. As some psychologists put it, “It is not that chi ldren are little scientists but that scientists are big children.”63. According to some developmental psychologists, _________.A. a baby’s play is nothing more than a game.B. scientific research into babies’ games is possibleC. the nature of babies’ play has been thoroughly investigatedD. a baby’s play is somehow similar to a scientist’s experiment64. We learn from Paragraph 2 that_______.A. scientists and babies seem to observe the world differentlyB. scientists and babies often interact with each otherC. babies are born with the knowledge of object supportD. babies seem to collect evidence just as scientists do65. Children may learn the rules of language by________.A. exploring the physical worldB. investigating human psychologyC. repeating their own experimentsD. observing their parents’ beh aviors66. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. The world may be more clearly explained through children’s play.B. Studying babies’ play may lead to a better understanding of science.C. Children may have greater ability to figure out things than scientists.D. One’s drive for scientific research may become stronger as he grows.Section CDirections: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable sentences to fill in the blanks and complete the passage. There are two extra sentences you do not need.Who Writes the President's Speeches?The president of the United States must be an orator. The president gives an annual address on the State of the Union and speaks at the inauguration and other special events. ____67____In his Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln spoke fewer than 300 words, but those words have become immortal. Franklind. Roosevelt set the standard for later presidents in his 30 “fireside chats”, which aired on the radio and dealt with the Great Depression and World War II.Beginning with George Washington, American presidents often sought assistance with the content and wording of their speeches, although they may have done the writing themselves.____68____ The first President to assign the task of speechwriting to an aide, however, was Calvin Coolidge(1923-1929), the laconic president whose nickname was "Silent Cal”. The aides name was Judson Welliver. (Today, there is a bipartisan organization for former presidential speechwriters, the Judson Welliver Society.) Since the middle of the twentieth century, the role of such speechwriters has expanded; the Executive branch now includes an Office of Speechwriting as part of its Department of Communications, Speechwriting and Media Affairs.____69____ In his inaugural speech, John F. Kennedy urged Americans “Ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country”. George H. W. Bush, in his inaugural speech, imagined community volunteers and organizations as “a thousand points of light”. Both of these phrases originated with the gifted men and women who worked as the president's speechwriters.The process of drafting a presidential speech is long and complicated, and different presidents make different contributions. Some write large portions of the text and invite criticism from aides and advisers; others ask speechwriters to draft a speech in its entirety, and then they edit it to their own satisfaction. ____70____ The final product, whatever the process, must “sound” like the person who speaks the words. As one speech writer recently said, “Our concern was not to write a good speech, but to write a good speech that is also his speech”.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.These days our society develops rapidly and forces people to rush. It appears that people have got used to being in a hurry. However, it’s better for people to take their time and live their life at a slower pace than to hurry to get things done.The main reason that convinces us to oppose doing work in a hurry is the possibility of doing wrongs in a rush. When people do their jobs or take action in a hurry, they can’t make a sound decision and probably regret later. As the say ing goes, “Haste makes waste.” We should think carefully before making a decision and do our work less quickly. We should not make mistakesby doing work hurriedly.Slowing down the pace of life helps people enjoy their life better. For example, taking a train to some place certainly will take more time than taking a plane. However, taking a train makes people have enough time to get to know a lot of new friends. Besides, it allows people to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. On the contrary, being in a hurry will make us lose chances of enjoying our lives.Finally, slower life pace provides better health conditions for us. As is known to all, taking action in a hurry bothers people and raises their stress. People think if they are not in a hurry, they will become a loser and that annoys them. But being in a hurry can hurt people both physically and mentally. According to some studies, people who have a slower pace suffer fewer diseases, tend to be happier and live much longer than those whose life is tense, even if the former finish jobs more slowly than the latter.In short, working quickly will bring about more material benefits to make our society more advanced. Yet, much stress can’t bring enjoyment, friends and health, which are muc h more important than money and other material advantages. Therefore, take your time and live your life at a slower pace.第 II 卷（共40分）I.

高二英语下学期第一次月考2018/04/03二．阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）AAfter giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke a bout winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever wou ld. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Dick,My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doc tors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.Your friend,Matthew21. The boy looked forward to meeting the author because _________.A. he was also good at weight liftingB. he wanted to get to the Olympics and win a medalC. he was one of the author’s fansD. he admired the author very much22. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that _______.A. the boy never complained about how unlucky he was to have this diseaseB. the boy never complained about not being able to go to schoolC. the boy never complained why the author had never come to see him beforeD. the boy never complained about not getting a medal23. Matthew didn’t accept the author’s medal because _________.A. he thought it was too expensiveB. he was sure that he could win one in the futureC. he thought it was of no use to him as he would die soonD. he would not be pitied by others24. What would be the best title for this passage?A. A sick boy.B. A special friend.C. A real champion.D. A famous athlete.BIf parents bring up a child with the aim of turning the child into a genius(天才), they will cause great damage to him. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is one of the biggest mistakes which some parents make. Generally, the child will understand very well what the parents ex pect, and will fail. Unrealistic parents’ expectations can cause great damage to children.However, if parents are not unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are hopeful in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well – especially if the parents are very supportive to their children.Michael Li is very lucky. He is very fond of music and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for him. They even drive him 50 kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Although Michael’s mother knows very little about music. Michael’s father plays the trumpet (小号) in a large orchestra. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling.Michael’s friend, Wist on Chen, however, is not so lucky. Although both his parents are successful musicians, they set too high a standard for Wiston. They want their son to be as successful as they are and so they enter him for every piano competition held. They are very unhapp y when he doesn’t win. “When I was at your age, I used to win every competition I entered.” Wiston’s father tells him. Wiston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.25. Michael is lucky because _______.A. his parents are rich enough to have a carB. his father is a musician in an orchestraC. he doesn’t do anything that his parents allow him to.D. his parents help him in a sensible way26. Wiston’s parents set so high a standard for him that ________ .A. he is afraid he may disappoint themB. he has to do his best do everythingC. he had made greater progress in musicD. he often wants to kill himself some day27. According to the author’s opinion, _________ .A. it is unimportant to let the children develop in the way they wantB. parents should be supportive to their childrenC. all sensible parents can train their children to succeed in everythingD. unrealistic parents should arrange private lessons for their childrenCIn the future, when robots can be used both in homes and in other areas, they could improve the living standards of people. Many people burn their energy on their day-to-day tasks like cooking, cleaning after work, etc. When robots can complete such jobs, people can spend more time with their family and friends. Experts say that many major problems in the modern world are caused by miscommunication. When people have more time, they can talk freely to solve such issues and eventually create a happy society.Robots can be used on certain jobs to avoid accidents caused by careless behavior of some people. When robots are used on such work, it does not risk any human life due to accidents at the workplace. Human resources can be efficiently used by performing tasks which demand human skills like critical thinking and problem solving. Robots can be used on low-end jobs like moving heavy things and heavy weight lifting.While some people talk about how robots can be useful to humans, others voice their concerns about reduction in human value and the creation of a lazy society due to heavy dependency on robots. When robots become cheaper to produce, employers may prefer to use more robots than humans. As the technology constantly improves the abilities of robots, it could weaken the value of humans. Many people may rely on robots heavily. Some may even develop the habit of using robots on tasks that they can easily do. This could create a lazy society.As an aging society, Japan sees it as a must to build robots that take care of elderly people at their homes, because without them, the nation's health care system can't cope. There will simply be too many elderly people to care for as the nation faces a decreasing birth rate, an aging population, and the loosening of family ties. However, many of Japan's elderly people would prefer human helpers rather than robots. Above all, Japan wants, if not “needs”，its dreams of robots in the home to come true because its immigration (移民) policy is anti-immigration.In conclusion, robots can be used on anything that can eventually improve humans' living standards but we can't depend on them too much. Robots can be used to help humans live in harmony and form a happy society. 28．According to the first paragraph, when robots can be used in homes, ________.A．people will spend more time on their workB．there would be more misunderstandings between humansC．people's living standards will be improvedD．people may communicate more with robots than human beings29．Compared with humans, robots are better at ________.A．problem solving B．communicating with othersC．critical thinking D．working safely30．Some people worry that with more robots being used ________.A．people will be unwilling to work hardB．human resources won't be needed at the workplaceC．it will be harder to improve the abilities of robotsD．robots will be beyond our control31．What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A．Japan will try to develop robots to be used in the home.B．The robots are well received by elderly people in Japan.C．The Japanese government encourages foreigners to move to Japan.D．Most Japanese citizens are against robots in the home.DMichael Fish may soon be replaced as a weather forecaster by something truly fishier---the shark(鲨鱼).Research by a British biology student suggests that sharks could be used to predict storms.Lauren Smith, 24, is close to completing her study on shark’s ability to sense pressure. If her studies prove the theory, scientists may be able to monitor the behaviour of sharks to predict bad weather.Miss Smith had previously studied the behaviour of lemon sharks in the Bahamas.She then used their close relatives, lesser spotted dogfish, for further research at Aberdeen University. Her work---thought to be the first of its kind to test the pressure theory ---- resulted from the observation that juvenile blacktip sharks off Florida moved into deeper water ahead of a violent storm in 2001.Miss Smith said: “I’ve always been crazy about traveling and diving and this led me to an interest in sharks.”“I was delighted to have been able to research in the area for my degree. I know there’s so much more we need to understand ---- but it certainly opens the way to more research.”It has been discovered that a shark senses pressure using hair cells in its balance system. At the Bimini Shark Lab in the Bahamas, Miss Smith fixed hi-tech sensors to sharks to record pressure and temperature, while also tracking them using GPS (Global Positioning System) technology.In Aberdeen, she was able to study the effects of tidal(潮汐的) and temperature changes on dogfish----none of whichwere harmed. She also used a special lab which can mimic(模拟) oceanic pressure changes caused by weather fronts. She is due to complete her study and graduate later this year. She says she will be looking for a job which will give her the chance to enrich her experience of shark research.32. The passage is most probably taken from _____.A. a short-story collectionB. a popular science magazineC. a research paperD. a personal diary33. What do we learn from the first four paragraph of the passage?A. Sharks may be used to predict bad weather.B. Sharks’ behaviour can be controlled.C. Michael Fish is not qualified for his job.D. Lauren Smith will become a weather forecaster.34. Lauren Smith conducted her research by _______.A. removing hair cells from a shark’s balance systemB. measuring the air pressure of weather frontsC. recording sharks’ body temperatureD. mo nitoring sharks’ reaction to weather changes35. What is the passage mainly about?A. A popular way of forecasting weather.B. A new research effort in predicting storms.C. Biologists’ interest in the secrets of sharks.D. Lauren Smith’s devotion t o scientific research.七选五The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet，chat and go where we've never been before．But just as in face to face communication，there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line．（36）______ Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes．For anything you're about to send：ask yourself，"Would I say this to the person's face？"If the answer is no，rewrite and reread．（37）______ If someone in the chat room is rude to you，your instinct （本能）is to fire back in the same manner．But try not to do so．（38）_______ If it was caused by a disagreement with another member，try to fix the situation by politely discussing it．Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room．（39）_____ Offer advice when asked by newcomers，as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate．When someone makes a mistake，whether it's a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer，be kind about it．If it's a small mistake，you may not need to say anything．Even if you feel strongly about it，think twice before saying anything．Having good manners yourself doesn't give you license to correct everyone else．（40）_____At the same time，if you find you are wrong，be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended．It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age，sex and marital status．Unless you know the person very well，and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information，don't ask such questions．A．It's natural that there some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online．B．Repeat the process till you feel sure that you'd feel comfortable saying the words to the person's face．C．Everyone was new to the network once．D．The basic rule is simple：treat others in the same way you would want to be treated．E．When you send short messages to a person online，you must say something beautiful to hear．F．You should either ignore the person，or use your chat software to block their messages．G．If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake，point it out politely．三．完形填空（共2小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）When I came out of my office, it was dark. In order to get home as soon as possible, I hired a taxi. The car was 41along the road, now well-lit, now sank in darkness. I broke the 42 on purpose, 43 that the driver might be too tired to drive. “When do you go back home in the evening?”“9 o’clock. I’ll go after this trip.”“Then when do you come out in the morning?” I 44 another question.“9 o’clock, too. And I go home for lunch and dinner, just as if I worked at an office.” His easiness surprised me, because every time I ride in a taxi, what I hear from the 45 are only complaints (抱怨). They complain that they 46 work 47 , that it is 48 to earn money, that they are bullied (欺侮) by the policeman, or that the corporation leaders are seated 49 and enjoy the 50 of others’ work. It seems that they have a grievance (不满意) against everything. But this driver told me, “I find it 51 to be a section chief as I w as before. I don’t like management work. I like driving, just for 52 . It’s 53 that I 54 drive without a passenger. So I can earn two or three thousand yuan a month with ease. Any 55 ? Yes, I never follow an empty taxi. If it goes 56 , I go northward. If it goes along the highway, I turn into a 57 street. In this way I always get customers.His words showed his satisfaction with his life and the pride he 58 in his job. Such feelings are so 59 among people nowadays as oxygen in high mountains. As an ancient saying 60 , “Neither joy in material gains nor grieve over personal setbacks (挫折).” How many people nowadays can show high ideals by simple living and go far with a calm mind?I couldn’t help feeling curious when I found such a state of mind in a stranger on a cold winter night.41.
