第一节：阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

As a boy growing up in India，I had longed to travel abroad.I used to listen to the stories my father would tell me about his stay in Canada and tours to Europe in the 1970s，with great interest.

My big moment finally came in the summer of 1998 when I was able to accompany my parents to Europe，where my father was to attend a meeting.We planned to travel to Belgium，Netherlands and West Germany.

I have vivid memories even today of going to Mumbai airport at night all excited about finally going abroad.I had heard several great things about Lufthansa till then but now I finally got to experience them first hand，during the flight to Frankfurt.We flew business class and even today I can remember the excellent service by the Lufthansa crew.The flight was really smooth and thoroughly enjoyable，even for someone like me，who is otherwise scared of flying.

After spending almost two weeks in Europe，we took the Lufthansa airport express from Dusseldorf to Frankfurt airport，for our return flight.What a journey that was! All along the Rhine (莱茵河)，it was simply an unforgettable experience.I was in a sombre mood on the flight back to Mumbai as it marked the end of a wonderful vacation，but the Lufthansa crew members were able to change it into a most enjoyable experience yet again，with the quality of their service.

Being the first airline to take me overseas，Lufthansa will always hold a special place in my heart.Even today，I continue to enjoy flights on Lufthansa and simply cannot dream of choosing any other airline.Flying，in general，for me，has always been an ordeal (terrible and painful experience)．Flying on Lufthansa，however，is something I always have and always will look forward to.

The Beatles were the most influential band in pop history. In their 8-year, 12-album history, Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr altered (改变) popular culture dramatically. And it wasn't just the suits and changing lengths of hair the four Liverpool boys wore that had such an impact, but what they seemed to stand for. The world saw them as the voice of a new generation, one with a very different attitude to life.

Their influence was at its height in the 1960s, but their music continues to stir listeners today. However, up until recently one aspect of the Beatles was struck in Yesterday: The music had never been remastered (重新灌录). But on September 9 that situation came to an end, with the release of the entire band's music in a digital makeover. It is probably the biggest reissue (重新发行) in pop music history, said British newspaper the Financial Times.

The albums were remastered at Abbey Road Studios in London, the location where the band produced much of their work. The cover of their last album, Abbey Road of 1969, featured the four young men striding (大步行走) across a zebra crossing on Abbey Road itself. It is one of the most famous of all

Beatles images.

Recently, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the album, hundreds of Beatles lovers gathered there to show their appreciation.

Pop groups come and go. The boy band pursued by screaming fans one year will be forgotten the next. But the Beatles are one of the few groups whose music seems to have endured (持久). Why? Paul McCartney's biographer Barry Miles has an explanation: “They were the first rock band… and they just happened to be the best. They were the first band to play stadiums, to have their own products. They were ground-breaking in every way，” he says.

6．Why did the Beatles change popular culture?

A．Because of the suits of the four Liverpool boys.

B．Because of changing lengths of hair the four Liverpool boys wore.

C．Because of their albums.

D．Because of their different attitude to life.

7．Which of the following statements is FALSE according to the second paragraph?

A．The Beatles influenced people at its height in the 1960s.

B．Their music Yesterday had never been remastered.

C．The entire band's music in a digital makeover will be remastered.

D．On September 9, their music came to an end.

8．What is their last album?

A．Yesterday. B．Abbey Road of 1969. C．Come Together. D．In My life.

9．What is NOT the reason why their music can endure?

A．They were the first rock band. B．They were the best one.

C．They were the first band to play stadiums and to have their own works.

D．They wore special suits.

“What is the most important thing you've done in your life？” The question was put to me during a presentation I gave to a group of lawyers.

The answer came to me in an instant. It's not the one I gave, because the situation was not right. As a lawyer in the entertainment industry, I knew the audience wanted to hear some amusing stories about my work with well-known people, but here's the true answer：

The most important thing I've ever done occurred on October 8,1990. I began the day playing tennis with an old friend I hadn't seen for a while. Between points we talked about what had been happening in each other's lives. He and his wife had just had a baby boy, who was keeping them up at night.

While we were playing, a car came screaming up the road toward the courts. It was my friend's father, who shouted to my friend that his baby had stopped breathing and was being rushed to the hospital. In a flash my friend was in the car and gone, disappearing in a cloud of dust.

For a moment I just stood there, paralyzed(呆若木鸡). Then I tried to figure out what I should do. Follow my friend to the hospital? There was nothing I could accomplish there, I convinced myself. My friend's son was in the care of doctors and nurses, and nothing I could do or say would affect the outcome. Be there for moral support? Well, maybe. But my friend and his wife both had large families, and I knew they'd be surrounded by relatives who would provide more than enough comfort and support, whatever happened. All I could do at the hospital, I decided, was to get in the way. Also, I had planned a full day with my family, who were waiting for me to get home. So I decided to head back to my house and check in my friend later.

As I started my car, I realized that my friend had left his truck and keys at the courts. I now faced another problem. I couldn't leave the keys in the truck. So I decided to go to the hospital and give him the keys.

When I arrived, I was directed to a room where my friend and his wife were waiting. As I had thought, the room was filled with family members silently watching my friend comfort his wife. I went in and stood by the door, trying to decide what to do next. Soon a doctor appeared. He approached my friend and his wife, and in a quiet voice told them that their son had died.

For a long time the two held each other and cried, unaware of the rest of us standing around in pained silence. After they had calmed themselves, the doctor suggested they spend a few moments with their son.

My friend and his wife stood up and walked past their families. When they reached the door, my friend saw me standing in the corner. He came over and hugged me and started to cry. My friend's wife

hugged me, too, and said, “Thanks for being here.”

For the rest of that morning, I sat in the emergency room of that hospital and watched my friend and his wife hold the body of their infant son, and say goodbye.

It's the most important thing I have ever done. The experience taught me two lessons.

First: The most important thing I've ever done happened when I was completely helpless. None of the things I had learned in university, in three years of law school or in six years of legal practice were of any use in that situation. Something terrible was happening to people I cared about, and I was powerless to change the outcome. All I could do was standing by and watching it happen. And yet it was critical that I do just that—just be there when someone needed me.

Second: The most important thing I've done almost didn't happen because of things I had learned in classroom and professional life. Law school taught me how to take a set of facts, break them down and organized them. These skills are critical for lawyers. When people come to us for help, they're often stressed out and depend on a lawyer to think logically. But while learning to think, I almost forget how to feel. Today I have no doubt that I should have leapt into my car without hesitation and followed my friend to the hospital.

From that experience I learned that the most important thing in life isn't the money you make, the status you attain or the honors you achieve. The_most_important_thing_in_life_is_the_kids'_team_you_coach_or_the_poem_you_write—or_the_time _when_you're_just_somebody's_friend.

10. When he was asked about the most important thing he had done in life at a presentation, the author ________.

A. felt it was not an interesting question

B. thought for a while and spoke his mind

C. gave an answer from a lawyer's point of view

D. didn't give the real answer

11. When he saw his friend rush to the hospital, the author could not decide whether to follow mainly because he thought ________.

A. he had to stay with his family

B. his friend did not need his help

C. he would not be of much help

D. the baby would be in the doctor's care

12. What can we infer from the author's description of the scene at the hospital?

A. He found out that he was in the way.

B. He would have felt guilty if he had not been there.

C. He regretted that he went too later.

D. His friend would have felt better if he had not been there.

13. Which of the following is conveyed in this story?

A. Family and relatives can not take the place of friends.

B. More people are a great comfort when one is in trouble.

C. It is best to be here when someone needs you.

D. You can certainly help a friend if you want to.

14. The author learned from his own experience that________.

A. what is taught in school is usually of no use

B. a lawyer cannot learn much in classrooms

C. a lawyer should know people's feeling first

D. he needs to be able to feel as well as think logically

15. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph suggests that the author________.

A. is fond of writing poems

B. is going to coach the kid's team

C. is determined to make friends with everybody

D. is fully aware of the importance of being helpful to those in need

You love Jay Chou's songs and you can sing some quite well. So you make a video of your performance and post it online for your friends to see. But what if this led to something beyond your wildest imagination—a career in music?

Canadian teenager Justin Bieber, 16, has just had the magical experience: He posted homemade videos of his versions of songs by American singer Chris Brown online for his relatives. He received a phone call from Brown, telling him how much he liked his performance. His singing eventually earned him a fan base and a record contract. After releasing a popular EP (extended play密纹唱片) record in November 2009, his album My world 2.0 came out last Tuesday.

Bieber sings ballads and songs about puppy love. But is he just another gooey (甜腻的) teen idol? David Malitz, a columnist with the Washington Post, doesn't think so. “If we truly want the best for American children, let us pause and give thanks for Justin Bieber，” he writes. “After years of humdrum bubblegum (乏味的摇滚舞曲) from Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers, the 16-year-old has thrown a candy-coated wrench (扭转) into Disney's heartthrob (甜心) assembly line (生产线) by giving young fans something worth screaming their lungs out for: lovable pop songs.”

From a boy who grew up below the poverty line with his divorced mom to a star who caused near-riots (近乎失控) in shopping malls, even Bieber himself can't believe his overnight fame, although his kind of success is becoming more and more common in the Internet era.

Interested in hockey (冰球), the national sport of Canada, the boy once put up pictures of players on the walls of his bedroom. He dreamed of being a hockey star and used to practice signing his autograph (签名). He doesn't need practice now. He signs autographs, if the girls can get close enough, as a music star. 16．What did Chris Brown think of Justin Bieber's singing?

A．He didn't like it. B．He liked it very much.

C．He didn't say anything. D．He supported Justin Bieber.

17．Who is a columnist?

A．Chris Brown. B．Jay Chou. C．David Malitz. D．Miley Cyrus.

18．What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?

A．He had a happy family. B．His family was very poor once.

C．His family was rich. D．His family helped him a lot.

19．What's Justin Bieber's hobby?

A．Singing. B．Hockey. C．Signing. D．Making records.

20.What's the best title of the passage?

A．Justin Bieber's overnight singing online. B．Justin Bieber's common experience.

C．Justin Bieber's life. D．Justin Bieber's records.

第二节：下面文章中有5处(第61～65题)需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出符合各段意思的小标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。

A. Using expensive testing equipment

B. Staffing a modern hospital

C. Testing becoming a great help

D. Cost of medical accidents

E. Cost of training medical workers

F. Measures of reducing medical costs

21．________

Physicians? fees are only one reason for rising health costs in the United States. Medical research has produced many tests to diagnose, or discover patients? illness. Physicians usually f eel obliged to order enough tests to rule out all likely causes of a patient?s symptoms. A routine laboratory bill for blood tests can easily be more than $100.

22．________

Sophisticated new machines have been developed to enable physicians to scan body organs with a clarity never before possible. One technique involves the use of ultrasound—sound waves beyond the frequencies that human beings can hear—to produce images. Others use computers to capture and analyze images produced by X-rays or magnetic fields. These machines are extremely expensive: The price of a single machine can exceed one million dollars.

23．________

New technologies also mean new personnel. Physicians, nurses and orderlies can no longer staff a hospital alone. Hospitals now require a bewildering number of technical specialists to administer new tests and operate advanced medical equipment.

24．________

Physicians and hospitals also must buy malpractice insurance to protect themselves should they be sued for negligence by patients who feel they have been mistreated or have received inadequate care. The rates for this insurance have been raised very steeply in the last ten years, as patients have become more medically knowledgeable, and as juries sometimes awarded very large amounts of money to injured patients.

25．________

As a result, hospital costs and physicians? fees rose steadily through the 1990s. Government agencies became convinced that it was necessary to limit rising medical costs. One approach is to require hospitals to prove that a need exists for new buildings and services. Hospitals also have faced pressure to run their operations more efficiently, and to decrease the duration of hospital stays for patients receiving routine treatment or minor surgery.

参考答案：A

本文是一篇记叙文。作者给我们讲述了他第一次去欧洲的难忘旅行。

1．A细节理解题。根据第一段首句以及最后一段“Being the first airline to take me overseas”可分析，作者生活的国度是在印度(India)。

2．D细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可推知，父亲经常讲其在加拿大居住和欧洲旅行的经历，这激发“我”希望走出国门看看的强烈愿望。

3．B细节理解题。A项错在与事实“和父母双亲一起去的”不符；C项错在与事实“他们是在夏季去的”不符；D项错在与事实“在欧洲呆了两个星期”不符。B项与文章吻合。

4．C推理判断题。通过后三段内容不难看出，此为一家航空公司的名称(德国汉莎航空公司)。

5．B词义猜测题。想到愉快的旅行就要结束，其心情自然不好，故选B项。根据后半句“但德国汉莎航空公司却以其高质量的服务使得…我?这一返程旅行转变为a most enjoyable experience”也可推知。

6．D细节理解题。从第一段的And it wasn't just the suits and changing lengths of hair the four Liverpool boys wore that had such an impact, but what they seemed to stand for. The world saw them as the voice of a new generation, one with a very different attitude to life.得出答案。

7．D细节理解题。从第二段可得出答案。

8．B细节理解题。从第三段的The cover of their last album, Abbey Road of 1969, featured the four young men striding across a zebra crossing on Abbey Road itself.可找到答案。

9．C细节理解题。从最后一段的They were the first rock band… and they just happened to be the best. They were the first band to play stadiums, to have their own products.看出答案。

10. D细节理解题。由第二段的“The answer came to me in an instant. It?s not the one I gave, because the situation was not right.”可以看出，当被问到这个问题的时候，由于作者考虑到当时的情形不对，他并没有给出真实的答案。

11. C细节理解题。第五段作者解释了看到朋友冲向医院而自己没有跟去的理由：My friend?s son was in the care of doctors and nurses, and nothing I could do or say would affect the outcome，也就是说，他认为朋友的孩子有医生和护士看护，自己不能干什么，也不能说什么，也改变不了结果。也就是选项C所概括的：帮不上什么忙。

12. B推理判断题。作者本以为去了医院也改变不了最后的结果，只是去送钥匙的，但是医院里的一幕：朋友的很多亲人都在那里，安慰他们夫妻俩，分担他们的忧愁，尤其是“He came over and hugged me and started to cry. My friend?s wife hugged me, too, and said , “Thanks for being here.”可以看出，作者意识到自己来帮了很大的忙，朋友是需要的，由此可以看出，作者意识到要是不来医院的话，他会很内疚、很后悔的。下文的“And yet it was critical that I do just that— just be there when someone needed me.”，“Today I have no doubt that I sh ould have leapt into my car without hesitation and followed my friend to the hospital.”也可以证明这一点。

13. C细节理解题。由倒数第三段的“…just be there when someone needed me.”可知答案。

14. D推理判断题。由倒数第二段的“When people come to us for help, they?re often stressed out and depend o n a lawyer to think logically. But while learning to think, I almost forget how to feel.”可知答案。

practice signing his autograph.可找到答案。

20．A主旨大意题。纵览全文可得出答案。

第二节

21. C该部分向我们讲述了检验、检查是医生诊断病情的一大帮助，也就构成了医生诊疗费之外的另一部分费用。也就是C的内容。

22．A该部分向我们分析了医疗费高涨的另外一个原因：使用先进、昂贵的设备检查。A项所说的“Using expensive testing equipment”最能概括本段。

23．B购买了现代化的仪器，医院就需要更先进的人员来操作这些仪器，所以B项所说的“Staffing a modern hospital.”最能概括本段。

24．D由该部分的最后一句话中的“…and as juries sometimes awarded very large amounts o f money to injured patients.”可以看出，该部分是讲医疗事故的，所以选Cost of medical accidents。

25．F该部分说的是政府决心抑制医疗费用的上涨以及抑制的具体措施，所以F项所说的“Measures of reducing medical costs”最能概括全文。

I’m walking on a path in the forest in the Central African Republic. Unexpectedly, I’m face-to-face with the gorilla, who begins screaming at 2 top of her lungs. That makes her baby scream, and then a 400-pound male appears. He screams the 3 (loud) of all. The noise shakes the trees as the male beats his chest and charges toward me. I quickly lower myself, ducking my head to avoid 4 (look) directly into his eyes so he doesn’t feel 5 (challenge). My name is Mireya Mayor. I’m a 6 (science) who studies animals such as apes and monkeys. I was searching 7 these three western lowland gorillas I’d been observing.

Making Chinese 1 (dish) is seen as especially troublesome. Many westerners 2 come to China cook much less than in their own countries once they realize how cheap 3 can be to eat out. I still remember 4 (visit) a friend who’d lived here for five years and I 5 (shock) when I learnt she hadn’t cooked once in all that time. While regularly eating out seems to 6 (become) common for many young people in recent years, it’s not without a cost. The obvious one is money; eating out once or twice a week may be 7 (afford) but doing this most days adds up. There could be an even 8 (high) cost on your health. Researchers have found that there is a direct link between the increase in food eaten outside the home and the rise in 9 (weigh) problems. If you are not going to suffer this problem, then I suggest that the next time you go to your mum’s home 10 dinner, get a few cooking tips from her. Cooking food can be fun.

华美实验学校高三英语限时训练（六）第一部分阅读理解（共9小题；每小题2分，满分18分）第一节: 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs. AVOID BIG EVENTS Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.) cost ￡169.15 at https://www.360docs.net/doc/e810453017.html,. A week later, the same room cost ￡118.15. If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid—or you?re looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as https://www.360docs.net/doc/e810453017.html,, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category. STAYAWAY FROM THE STATION If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday. Don?t be too choosy about the part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge?s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was ￡95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was ￡75.75. And at Farringdon, a double room cost just ￡62.95. LOOK AFTER YOURSELF Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune, especially at weekends and during big events. As an alternative consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen. Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city center buildings. A great example is the historic O?Neill Flat on Edinburgh?s Royal Mile, available for ￡420 for five days in late September, with rooms for four adults. GET ON A BIKE London?s …Boris bikes? have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmers that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs. Among the smaller cities with their own programmers are Newcastle (casual members pay around ￡1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or ￡5 per day). 1. The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events may ________. A. help travelers pass time B. attract lots of travelers to the UK C. allow travelers to make flexible plans D. cause travelers to pay more for accommodation 2. The passage shows that the O?Neill Flat ________. A. lies on the ground floor B. is located in central London

His mother had kept on hinting that there would be a big surprise for him during the vacation. Kevin took out his scrapbook (剪贴簿). The exams had just finished, and summer vacation had just started. Now he was free as a bird — free to draw, paint, play basketball, and watch television…anything he wanted to do. Suddenly, the doorbell rang, startling (使惊吓) him. It was his pain of a cousin, Max. “Hi!” screamed Max as he jumped on Kevin’s bed. “I have come to stay here for the holidays.” Kevin had never expected his mother’s surprise to be this bad. If this was the start of his vacation, then the next few weeks were going to be the worst experience of his life. The next few days were horrible for Kevin. After breakfast, Kevin decided to make a painting. Luckily, Max was not around. Kevin spread out all his art supplies and started painting some beautiful scenery. When he was doing the finishing touches, Max entered the room with a Pepsi bottle. He slipped on some water, spilling Pepsi all over the painting and totally ruining it. The next day was even worse. Everything was peaceful until the evening. It all started when Max put the dirty clothes in the washing machine. After some time, Kevin heard some strange sounds from the washing machine.

One day, Kevin was looking through the newspaper when some interesting news caught his attention. He read it aloud: “The world famous philatelist (集邮家) Dick Brown’s stamps were stolen last week from his house. Several other stamp robberies also have taken place, and police suspect that all the robberies are linked.” This piece of news concluded by warning all stamp collectors to keep their stamps safe.
