吉林省实验中学2015届高三上学期第二次模拟考试英语试题及答案

吉林省实验中学2015届高三上学期第二次模拟考试英语试题Me ier, 43, a marketing director in Beaver Falls, prefers her books on paper, not screens. After working on a computer all day, she says, “I want a book in my hand. Turning over its pages is my way of knowing it's time to rela x and slow down.” Meier, who's sticking with physical books, doesn't consider herself any kind of digital “resister.” “I'm comfortable with all forms of technology,” she says. “However, when it comes to books, I suppose I'm a traditionalist. My preference will always be the real thing.”To her, part of the joy of reading is the book itself: “pulling it from the shelf, inspecting the cover, letting it fall open to a random page.”Both have lots of company. Statistics show that e-book sales grew 43% last year, but that's a slowdown compared with the triple-digit increases in recent years. E-books remain the fastest-growing part of the book market but account for only about 20% of all sales, reported by publishers.Miscioscio and Meier are at opposite ends of a book business in transition. Even though e-book sales have grown more than 4,000% since 2008, it's unlikely that physical books will disappear the way records did in the music industry.21. Miscioscio will ______ when a book is not available digitally.A. give up reading such kind of booksB. switch to the book of lower priceC. buy the book on paperD. take an e-reader onto the loungers22. According to Meier, her “preference” refers to ______.A. paper bookB. part of joyC. a random pageD. an e-book23. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Records are unlikely to disappear in the music industry.B. Miscioscio and Meier are two opponents in book business.C. The market share of e-books is bigger than that of paper books.D. Physical books will remain to be accepted to some people.24. What is the passage mainly concerned with?A. E-books will dominate the book industry eventually.B. Readers go their own way in choosing books.C. New technology brings more benefits for readers.D. Physical books will disappear gradually in the future.BGetting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家),encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.25. The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because .A. they lived healthily in a dirty environment.B. they believed disease could be spread in public bathsC. they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay inD. they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease26. Which of the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing?A. Uninterested.B. Curious.C. Approving.D. Afraid.27. How does the passage mainly develop?A. By following the order of time.B. By making comparisons.C. By providing examples.D. By following the order of importance.28. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To stress the role of dirt.B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To present the change of views on dirt.D. To call attention to the danger of dirt.CIt all began with a stop at a red light.Kevin Salwen was driving his 14-year-old daughter, Hannah, back from a sleepover in 2006 . While waiting at a traffic light, they saw a black Mercedes Coupe on one side and a homeless man begging for food on the other.“Dad, if that man had a less nice car, that man there could have a meal.” Hannah protested. The light changed and they drove on, but Hannah was too young to be reasonable. She pestered(纠缠)her parents about inequity, insisting that she wanted to do something.“What do you want to do?” her mom responded. “Sell our house?”Warning! Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager. Hannah seized upon the idea of selling the luxurious family home and donating half the proceeds to charity, while using the other half to buy a more modest replacement home.Eventually, that’s what the family did. The project —crazy, impetuous (鲁莽的)and utterly inspiring — is written down in detail in a book by father and daughter scheduled to be published next month: “The Power of Half.” It’s a book that, frankly, I’d be nervous about leaving around where my own teenage kids might find it. An impressionable child reads this, and the next thing you know your whole family is out on the street.At a time of enormous needs in Haiti and elsewhere, when so many Americans are trying to help Haitians by sending everything from text messages to shoes, the Salwens offer an example of a family that came together to make a difference — for themselves as much as the people they were trying to help. In a column a week ago, it described neurological (神经生物学的)evidence from brain scans that unselfishness lights up parts of the brain normally associated with more primary satisfaction. The Salwens’experience confirms the selfish pleasures of selflessness.Mr. Salwen and his wife, Joan, had always assumed that their kids would be better off in a bigger house. But after they downsized, there was much less space to retreat to, so the family members spent more time around each other. A smaller house unexpectedly turned out to be a more family-friendly house.29. What does the underlined word “inequity” most probably mean in Paragraph 3?A. Unfairness.B. Satisfaction.C. Reasonable statementD. Personal attitude.30. What does the underlined sentence “Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealisticteenager.” means? ______A. Don’t respond to a child's demands firmly without consideration.B. Unless a child is realistic, never give an answer immediately.C. Give an answer if the child is reasonable.D. Never give a quick answer to an idealistic teenager.31. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The Salwens regretted selling their house.B. The relationship between the family members of the Salwens is much closer.C. Small houses can bring happiness.D. The Salwens intend to buy another big house.32. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Mercedes Coupe is only an ordinary car which is quite cheap.B. Unselfishness has nothing to do with people’s primary satisfaction.C. Hannah asked her parents to do something charitable and they sold their house.D. The writer’s children asked him to sell their house.DHumans have sewn by hand for thousands of years. It was said that the first thread was made from animal muscle and sinew (腱). And the earliest needles were made from bones. Since those early days, many people have been involved in the process of developing a machine that could do the same thing more quickly and with greater efficiency.Charles Wiesenthal, who was born in Germany, designed and received a patent on a double-pointed needle that eliminated the need to turn the needle around with each stitch (缝合) in England in 1755. Other inventors of that time tried to develop a functional sewing machine, but each design had at least one serious imperfection.Frenchman Barthelemy Thimonnier finally engineered a machine that really worked. However, he was nearly killed by a group of angry tailors when they burned down his garment factory. They feared that they would lose their jobs to the machine.American inventor Elias Howe, born on July 9, 1819, was awarded a patent for a method of sewi ng that used thread from two different sources. Howe’s machine had a needle with an eye at the point, and it used the two threads to make a special stitch called a lockstitch. However, Howe faced difficulty in finding buyers for his machines in America. In frustration, he traveled to England to try to sell his invention there. When he finally returned home, he found that dozens of manufacturers were adapting his discovery for use in their own sewing machines.Isaac Singer, another American inventor, was also a manufacturer who made improvements to the design of sewing machines. He invented an up-and-down-motion mechanism that replaced the side-to-side machines. He also developed a foot treadle (脚踏板) to power his machine. This improvement left the sewer’s ha nds free. Undoubtedly, it was a huge improvement of the hand-cranked machine of the past. Soon the Singer sewing machine achieved more fame than the others for it was more practical, it could be adapted to home use and it could be bought on hire-purchase. The Singer sewing machine became the first home appliance, and the Singer company became one of the first American multinationals.However, Singer used the same method to create a lockstitch that Howe had already patented. As a result, Howe accused him of patent infringement(侵犯). Of course, Elias Howe won the court case, and Singer was ordered to pay Howe royalties(版税). In the end, Howe became a millionaire, not by manufacturing the sewing machine, but by receiving royalty payments for his invention.33. Barthelemy Thimonnier’s garment factory was burned down because _____.A. people did not know how to put out the fireB. Elias Howe thought Thimonnier had stolen his inventionC. workers who feared the loss of their jobs to a machine set fireD. the sewi ng machines couldn’t work finally34. Why did the court force Isaac Singer to pay Elisa Howe a lifetime of royalties?A. Because the judge was against Singer for his surly attitude.B. Because Howe had already patented the lockstitch used by Singer.C. Because Singer had borrowed money from Howe and never repaid it.D. Because Singer and Howe had both invented the same machine.35. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. The Early History of the Sewing MachineB. The Case between Howe and SingerC. Patent Laws on the Sewing MachineD. A Stitch in Time Saves Nine第二节(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
英语_2016年吉林省长春市某校高考英语二模试卷含答案

2016年吉林省长春市某校高考英语二模试卷第二部分阅读理解第一节(满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.1. My 17﹣year﹣old daughter went off to college and having her away from home brought back memories of watching Peter Pan when she was little. In the classic TV production, one scene in particular impressed me: when Mrs. Darling puts her children into bed. As she turns off the last of the night light, she takes one last look at the bedroom and says, "Dear night lights, protect my sleeping children." As a mother, I know how much she loves her children.It has been several weeks since we took our daughter to college and she seems to be adjusting well after a short period of homesickness. For us, though, it's another story. Like most parents, I love checking in on my children at night. But now she's gone, and I find nighttimes the hardest. I miss her most at night.In my neighborhood, most of the parents whose kids are off to college are dealing with similar ________. My husband is filled with anxiety. One friend talked about getting this sick feeling in her stomach as she prepared for the college drop﹣off. We complained that many of us were too busy to truly enjoy being with our children while we had them.For us moms, seeing Toy Story 3 only made the sadness worse as we watched the character Andy, who is the same age as our kids, say goodbye to his childhood as he prepares to leave for college. And it's not just "first﹣time" parents like me. Two moms who have kids already well into college said the separation didn't get any easier. "You feel like something has been taken away from inside you, " said one of them.I imagine things will get easier with time, especially as I see my daughter adjust to college life. Meanwhile, as I keep my cell phone close to me in bed and text my daughter goodnight and sweet dreams every night, I like to think at messages serve as a night light that keeps her safe.(1)The writer was deeply impressed by the scene in Peter Pan because________.A she watched the scene with her daughterB the scene was very exciting and interestingC the scene taught her and her daughter a good lessonD the scene showed a mother's deep love for her children.(2)After her daughter went to college, the writer________.A didn't get used to the change for a long timeB often cried as she missed her daughter so muchC realized she hadn't done enough for her daughterD failed to have a good sleep every night.(3)What is the underlined word "melancholy" in Paragraph 3 similar in meaning to?________A Happiness.B Anger.C Sadness.D Excitement..(4)According to the last paragraph, why did the writer keep her cell phone close to her in bed?________A To call her daughter any time.B To wait for her daughter's calls.C To say good night to her daughter.D To wait for her daughter's messages.2. Television has turned 88 years old on September 7, 2015, and it has never looked better.In its youth, television was a piece of furniture with a tiny, round screen showing unclear pictures of low budget programs.In spite of its shortcomings, it became well﹣received.Between 1950 and 1963, the number of American families with a television jumped from 9% to 92% of the population.As the audience got larger, the technology got better.Television sets became more reliable through the 1960s.Both of the reception and the picture improved.The major networks started broadcasting programs in color.Even greater improvements were coming according to Sanford Brown, who wrote an article for the Post in 1967.Surprisingly, just about every prediction he made in the article became a reality.For example: All sets in the not distant future will be color instruments.He also predicted that TV sets would become smaller, simpler, more reliable and less expensive and may forever put the TV repairman out of work.Smaller sets donot, of course, mean smaller screens.TV engineers expect screens to get much bigger.However, today's 3D TV is even farther away, if it's coming at all.There is some doubt whether the public would be eager to pay for it, in view of people's cold reception given to 3D movies.But the technology with the greatest potential, according to Brown, was cable television(有线电视), which was still in its early stages then.As he predicted, the future of cable television was highly interactive.It wasn't cable television that gave Americans their electronic connection to the world, however.It was the Internet.He even foresaw the future office: using picture phones, big screen televisions for conferences, and computers providing information, at the touch of a button.Brown ever said, "The future of television is no longer a question of what we can invent.It's a question of what we want."(1)What can we infer about television sets in the 1960s?________A They were very popular with Americans.B The reception showed no improvementC They showed black﹣and﹣white picturesD They were out of order now and then.(2)Which of the followings did Sanford Brown fail to predict?________A Television's good quality.B The invention of 3﹣D TV.C The future office's modelD The potential of cable TV..(3)What is the text mainly about?________A The shortcomings of television.B The bright future of television.C The development of television.D The invention of television.3.

An environmental group called the Food Commission is unhappy and disappointed because of the sales of bottled water from Japan. The water, it angrily argues in public, has traveled 10, 000 "food miles" before it reached Western customers. Transporting water halfway across the world is surely the extremely stupid use of fuel when there is plenty of water in the UK. It is also worrying that we were wasting our fuel by buying prawns from Indonesia (7, 000 food miles ) and carrots from South Africa (5, 900 food miles).Counting the number of miles traveled done by a product is a strange way of trying to tell the true situation of the environmental damage due to industry. Most food is transportedaround the world on container ships that are extremely energy efficient. It should be noticed that a ton of butter transported 25 miles in a truck to a farmers' market doesn't necessarily use less fuel on its journey than a similar product transported hundreds of miles by sea. Besides, the idea of "food miles" ignores the amount of fuel used in the production. It is possible to cut down your food miles by buying tomatoes grown in Britain rather than those grown in Ghana. The difference is that the British ones will have been raised in heated greenhouse and the Ghanaian ones in the open sun.What is the idea of "food miles" does provide, however, is the chance to cut out Third World countries from First World food markets. The number of miles traveled by our food should, as I see it, be regarded as a sign of the success of the global trade system, not a sign of damage to the environment.(1)The Food Commission is angry because it thinks that________.A UK wastes a lot of money importing food productsB some imported goods causes environmental damageC growing certain vegetables causes environmentaldamage D people wasted energy buying food from other countries.(2)The phrase "food miles" in the passage refers to the distance________.A that a food product travels to a marketB that a food product travels from one market to anotherC between UK and other food producing countriesD between a Third World country and a First World food market.(3)By comparing tomatoes raised in Britain and in Ghana, the author tries to explain that________.A British tomatoes are healthier than Ghanaian onesB Ghanaian tomatoes taste better than tomatoes onesC cutting down food miles may not necessarily savefuel D protecting the environment may cost a lot of money.(4)From the passage we know that the author is most probably________.A a supporter of free global tradeB a member of a Food CommissionC a supporter of First World food marketsD a member of an energy development group.第二节(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.选项中有两项为多余选项.5. 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A 、B 、C 和D )中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AGrowing up in Philadelphia, Lieberman started cooking with his stay-at-home dad when he was seven. His food-loving family had two kitchens, and he quickly learned what was the best way to bake his cakes. Lieberman improved his kitchen skills greatly during a year abroad before college, learning from a cook in Italy and studying local specialties (地方特色菜)in Germany, Spain and France. At Yale, he was known for throwing dinner parties, single-handed frying and baking while mixing drinks for dozens of friends. Just for fun, he and some friends decided to tape a show named Campus Cuisine about his cooking. Lieberman was a real college student showing his classmates how to do things like making drinks out of dining-hall fruit. That helped the show become very popular among the students. They would stop Lieberman after classes to ask for his advice on cooking. Tapes of the show were passed around, with which his name went beyond the school and finally to the Food Network. Food Network producer Flay hopes the young cook will find a place on the network television. He says Lieberman’s charisma is key.“Food TV isn’t about food anymore,” says Flay. “It’s about your personality and finding a way to keep people’s eyeballs on your show.”But Lieberman isn’t putting all his eggs in one basket. After taping the first season of the new show, Lieberman was back in his own small kitchen preparing sandwiches. An airline company was looking for someone to come up with a tasteful, inexpensive and easy-to-make menu to serve on its flights, Lieberman got the job. 21. We can learn from the text that Lieberman’s family __________.A. love cooking at homeB. have relatives in EuropeC. often hold partiesD. own a restaurant 22. The Food Network got to know Lieberman __________.A. at one of his partiesB. from his teachersC. on a television programD. through his taped show23. What does the underlined word “charisma” in the text refer to?A . A way to show one’s achievement. B. A natural ability to attract others. C. Lieberman’s after -class interest. D. Lieberman’s fin e cooking skill. 24. Why did the airline company give Lieberman the job?A. He could prepare meals in a small kitchen.B. He was famous for his shows on Food TV.C. He could cook cheap, delicious and simple meals.D. He was good at using eggs to make sandwiches. BWomen are friendly. But men are more competitive. Why? Researchers have found it’s all down to the hormone oxytocin (荷尔蒙催生素). Although known as the love hormone, it affects the sexes differently.“ Women tend to be social in their behavior. They often share with others. But men tend to be competitive. They are trying to improve their social status,” said Professor Ryan.Generally, people believe that the hormone oxytocin is let out in our body in various social situations and our body creates a large amount of it during positive social interactions (互动) such as falling in love or giving birth.But in a previous experiment Professor Ryan found that the hormone is also let out in our body during negative social interactions such as envy.2016年吉林省高考英语预测卷Further researches showed that in men the hormone oxytocin improves the ability to recognize competitive relationships, but in women it raises the ability to recognize friendship.Professor Ryan’s recent experiment used 62 men and women a ged 20 to 37. Half of the participants received oxytocin. The other half received placebo (安慰剂).After a week, the two groups switched with participants. They went through the same procedure with the other material.Following each treatment, they were shown some video pictures with different social interactions. Then they were asked to analyze the relationships by answering some questions. The questions were about telling friendship from competition. And their answers should be based on gestures, body language and facial expressions.The results indicated that, after treatment with oxytocin, men’s ability to correctly recognize competitive relationships improved, but in women it was the ability to correctly recognize friendship that got better.Professor Rya n thus concluded: “Our experiment proves that the hormone oxytocin can raise people’s abilities to better distinguish different social interactions. And the behavior differences between men and women are caused by biological factors that are mainly hormon al.”25. What causes men and women to behave differently according to the text?A. Oxytocin.B. Placebo.C. The gesture.D. The social status.26. What can we learn from Professor Ryan’s previous experiment?A. Oxytocin affects our behavior in a different way.B. Our body lets out oxytocin when we are deep in love.C. Oxytocin improves our abilities to understand people's behavior differences.D. Our body produces oxytocin when we feel unhappy about others’success.27. Why did Professor Ryan conduct the recent experiment?A. To know the differences between friendship and competition.B. To test the effect of oxytocin on the ability to recognize social interactions.C. To know the differences between friendship and competition.D. To know pe ople’s different abilities to answer questions.28. The author develops the text by __________.A. explaining people's behaviorsB. describing his own experiencesC. discussing research experimentsD. distinguishing sexual differencesCIf doctors want to test you for something, they’ll usually take a blood or urine sample (尿样). But wouldn’t it be much more convenient if they just asked you to breathe through a special instrument?In fact, your breath can say a lot about you. In traditional Chinese medicine, doctors draw a conclusion about the health state of a patient based on the smell of his or her breath; trained dogs and rats can identify the smells of the breaths of people suffering from certain cancers; traffic police also monitor drivers’ alcohol consumption by testing their breaths.Just like blood and urine, your breath contains lots of “metabolites ”--- the waste chemicals that the body produces, which vary from person to person. They are like personal health fingerprints, which is why scientists sometimes call them “ breath prints”, according to Science Daily.Compared to blood or urine testing, breath testing takes only seconds instead of hours, and it requires neither a needle nor a container to hold the body fluids (体液). This means the test can be taken frequently to better detect early signs of diseases and monitor the progress of a medical treatment.On the other hand, as an identifier, you might think that breaths are not as reliable as fingerprints since they might change based on what you eat. However, researchers in Zurich, Switzerland mapped 11 healthy volunteers’ chemical patterns by having them breathe through a special instrument, and they found that each pattern was unique and the patterns didn’t change much throughout the day, reported BBC.“Our goal is to develop breath analysis to the point where it becomes competitive with the established analysis of blood and urine,” said Malcolm Kohler, professor at the University Hospital Zurich.29. According to the text we know that __________.A. breath varies from person to person based on foodB. your breath may give you away if you are not carefulC. doctors can test one’s breath to find about his illnessD. dogs can identify people with certain cancers30. In comparison with blood or urine testing, breath testing is __________.A. comfortable and convincingB. traditional and reliableC. accurate and competitiveD. quick and convenient31. What is the author’s attitude toward breath testing?A. Doubtful.B. Approving.C. Unconcerned.D. Worried.32. What can we infer from the text?A. Breath testing is reliable and may have a bright future.B. Blood or urine testing will be less used in medical treatment.C. Doctors have found the best way to detect early signs of diseases.D. Traditional Chinese medicine is becoming more and more popular.DEvery year, the fascinating tourist destinations below are attracting travelers from home and abroad to St. Louis, which, founded in 1764 by French traders, today is the fifteenth largest urban area in the United States.★American Kennel Club Museum of the DogDog lovers who visit St. Louis won’t want to miss this 14,000-square-foot museum.

AEveryone, please imagine, a big explosion breaks out as the plane takes us high in the sky. The plane is full of smoke and the engine sounds scary. To minutes later, the engines are turned off. We are no sitting in a plane ith no sound. And e can see: Life is over.That really happened. In January 2016, I had a front-ro seat on Flight 1549, the plane that crash-landed in the Hudson River in Ne York.No let me tell you the three things I learned hen the silence came.First, I thought about all the people I anted to reach out to but didn t. I thought about all the experiences I anted to have but never did. I no longer anted to put off anything in life. Second, I really regretted the time I asted on things that did not matter. I decided to remove negative energy from my life. Third, I realized, o, dying as not scary. But it as very sad just because I only ished I could have seen my kids gro up. Fortunately, I as given the gift of a miracle of not dying thatday. I as given another gift, ith hich I as to see into the future and e back and live differently.About a month later, my ife and I ere at a performance by my daughter, not much artistic talent. Yet, I m crying. I realized that above all, the only goal in my life as to be a good father. Audience, again, imagine the same thing happening on your plane. Ho ould you change? What ould you get done? And more than anything, are you being the best parent you can?Thank you.21. Which of the folloing can be the best title for the text?A. Air crash is alays a tragedy.B.

I can t find blue food I can t find the flavor of blue! I mean yello is lemon; orange is orange and red is cherry. Where is the blue food?Well, Carlin pretty much has it right there s not no blue food, but there s certainly not a lot of it. Fresh-picked blueberries are blue, though they bee purple hen they are turned into jam. The blue in blueberries like the purple in grapes and the red in tomatoes is found in nature. But it isn t a hot color for food. People don t seem to prefer blue food. Some diet programs even suggest that those determined to lose eight should make their food blue.Eating, in part, begins ith our eyes. Charles Spence an experimental psychologist from Oxford University points out that color can change our taste experience. Commonly, e consider red-colored foods up to 20% seeter than they actually are; and green foods as being more sour. Spence suggests: human expectations may be influenced by our long history of atching - green fruits can bee seet as they gro up and turn red. But hat about blue? Except blueberries, much of the blue food e see these days is dyed blue artificially. Food producers argue that artificial color doesn t do much harm to health. A lot of research shos that some physical problems of kids are related to food dyes hile other studies sho no effects at all. Blue birthday cake or even blue-dyed chicken can be served on the dinner table. So hat?25. George Carlin s ords are placed at the beginning of the passage to _______.A. sho the author s opinionB. introduce a TV shoC. tell a famous personD. lead in the topic26. Which of the folloing statements of blue is true?A. Blueberries are alays blue, hether fresh or not.B. The blue in blueberries is found unnatural.C. Blue is not a very popular color for foods.D. People often feel cold hen they eat blueberries.27. Eating sometimes begins ith our eyes because _______.A. our taste experience can be influenced by colorB. red-colored food are 20% seeter than green foodC. people prefer red-colored food to green foodD. before eating, people atch food for a long time28. The underlined ords is dyed in Para. 4 are closest in meaning to _______ .A. is eaten upB. has gron upC. is changed in colorD. is harmful to。

AWhat is the most important day of your life? For many people the answer is your Wedding Day—the day when you marry another person and promise to live together as husband and wife for the rest of your lives.Wedding celebrations differ from country to country —in China the bride wears red while in India the wedding continues for three days. However, in Britain the bride wears white and wedding usually only lasts for one day.In the UK it is possible to get married in a religious or civil ceremony. A religious ceremony takes place in a church. A civil ceremony, on the other hand, can be held in an office, in a hotel, or even on a boat.On the day of the wedding the bride and groom are kept separate until the ceremony. It is said to be bad luck if the groom sees the bride in her dress before the wedding. The bride arrives at the ceremony accompanied by her fatherand bridesmaids. They officially give her away to her new husband. During the ceremony the happy couple exchange vows and give each other wedding rings which they will wear forever. At the end of the ceremony they kiss.Afterwards they go outside where friends and family throw rice or color papers over them and then they go on to the reception where there is a lot of food and drink. After the meal the father of the bride and the best man make speeches. Then the bride and groom take the first dance. It is a lot of fun. Finally, at the end of the party the newly-weds leave to go on honeymoon, usually to a very romantic destination.21.What function is the first two paragraphs?A .To tell us that we have most important day in our life.B. To tell us Wedding day is the day when you marryanother person and promise to live together.C. To tell us that people hold wedding.D. To attract reader’s attention to the topic weddings in Britain.22.What does the underlined word ‘newly-weds’ (Para 5) mean?A. The bridegroom.B. The bride.C. The newly-married couple.D. The best man.23.What can we infer from the passage?A. People all over the world pay a great deal attention to Wedding Day.B. In Britain the bride wears white.C. Wedding celebrations differ from country to country.D. In India the wedding can continue for three days.24. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.

The bride’s father will give her away to the bridegroom.D.

It’s time to enjoyyourselves!There are many ways to celebrate this special month of graduation. You can have photos taken with your classmates and teachers, or dine out together and exchange gifts.High school students in western countries such as the United States and Canada usually have a party to mark their graduation. It is to mark the time when kids turn into young men and women. After the party, teenagers either go to college or find a job. It means they will no longer depend on their parents as before.At the party, boys usually dress in dinner jackets and bow ties, though many different types of formal clothes are worn. Girls traditionally wear formal dresses, or dress to shock or be noticed, in shiny or brightly colored materials.Common party activities include dining, dancing, crowning of a ball king and queen, and just talking to friends. In some cases, high school students collect funds for their class party through the four years of their high school.High schools in or near large cities may rent big rooms at expensive hotels or, to be unusual, on a pleasure boat. But often costs are cut by simply using the school gym. Students make a lot of efforts to decorate the gym to make the event special. The music played at the party will be the most popular kinds, like rock and hip-hop.Sometimes teachers and parents also go to the party. But others like to go with friends, to whom they are soon going to say good-bye.If you like the idea of a party, why don’t you and your classmates organize one for your graduation?25.The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is to ________.A. tell an interesting experience of high school studentsB. tell how the western students spend the last days of high schoolC. tell how western high school students usually celebrate graduationD.introduce several ways of the western students’killing time26.What does the party mean for western high schoolstudents that are about to graduate?A. They have finished high school and will go to college.B. These teenagers can find a job to support themselves.C. They have grown up and need friends’ help.D. They are adults and will not depend on parents.27.What does the underlined word “mark ” in paragraph 3 mean?A.rememberB. celebrateC.signD.show28.From the fourth paragraph ,we can infer that ________.A. the party is very interestingB. girls like to make themselves beautiful at all hoursC. boys wear as usual to attend the partyD. graduates pay much attention to the partyCAustralian scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in order to cut the greenhouse gases they send out, which is thought to be responsible for global warming.Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangarooflatulence (肠胃气胀)contains no methane(甲烷) and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who produce large quantities of the harmful gas. While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a billowing smokestack, pushing out carbon dioxide, farm animals’passing wind contribute a surprisingly high percentage of total emissions (排放物)in some countries.“Fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in Australia are from enteric methane from cattle and sheep,”said Athol Klieve, a senior research scientist with the greensland state government.“And if you look at another country such as New Zealand, which has got a much higher agricultural base, they are actually up around 50 percent,” he said.Researchers say the bacteria also make the digestive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers. But it will take researchers at least three years to isolate (分离) the bacteria before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.Another group of scientists, meanwhile, have suggestedAustralians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos. And about 20 percent of health-conscious Australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.It’s low in fat, it ’s got high protein levels and it is very clean in the sense that basically it is free-range(放养的) animal,”said Peter Ampt of the University of New South Wales’institute of environmental studies.29. Scientists intend to put bacteria into cattle and sheep________.A. to help Australian farmers to earn more moneyB. to prevent them from sending out harmful gasesC. so that they can protect Australian ecosystemD. so that they can make full use of special bacteria30. Athol Klieve seems to believe that _________.A. farm animals are to blame for greenhouse gasesB. less cattle and sheep are raised in New ZealandC. cattle and sheep produce less carbon dioxideD. New Zealand has the most animals in the world31.The advantages Peter Ampt lists about kangaroos don’tinclude ________.A. it is rich in proteinB. it is low in fatC. it is cheaper than beefD. it is cleaner than sheep32.The main idea of the passage is to ________.A. discuss a better way to protect the earthB. warn farmers of the danger of animal wasteC. explain the possible solutions to pollutionD. present a recent study on global warmingDA gentle breeze blew through Jennifer’s hair. The golden red sun was setting. She was on the beach, looking up at the fiery ball. She was amazed by its color, deep red in the middle, softly fading into yellow. She could hear nothing but the waves and the seagulls flying up above in the sky.The atmosphere relaxed her. This was what she needed.“It is getting late.”she thought,“I must go home. My parents will be wondering where I am.”She wondered how her parents would react, when she got home after the three days she was missing. She kept on walking, and the road was deserted. She walked slowly and silently. Just in a few hundred meters she would have been safe in her house.It was really getting dark now. The sun had set a few minutes before and it was getting cold, too. She wished she had her favorite sweater on: it kept her really warm. She imagined having it with her. This thought disappeared when she finally saw her front door. It seemed different. Nobody had taken care of the outside garden for a few days. She was shocked: her father was usually so strict about keeping everything clean and tidy, and now... It all seemed deserted. She couldn’t understand what was going on.She entered the house. First she went into the kitchen where she saw a note written by her father. It said:“Dear Ellen, there is some coffee ready. I went looking.”Ellen was her mother, but where was she? On the right side of the hallway was her parents’ room. She went in. Then she saw her. Her mother, lying on the bed, was sleeping. Her face looked so tired, as if she had not slept for days. She wasreally pale. Jennifer would have wanted to wake her up butshe looked too tired. So Jennifer just fell asleep beside her. When Jennifer woke up, something was different...she wasn’t in her mother’s room and she was not wearing theold clothes she ran away in. She was in her cozy bed in her pajamas.It felt so good being back home. Suddenly she heard a voice,”Are you feeling better now, dear? You know you gotus very, very scared.”33.Three days later Jennifer came back home _________.A. at sunsetB. at sunriseC.at nightD.at midday34.Her father didn’t take care of the garden because________.A. he had to look after his wifeB. he was busy looking for herC. he was not strict with his jobD. he no longer enjoyed working in the garden35.What can we infer from the passage?A. In fact Jennifer’s mother had been sick for days.B. As Jennifer walked towards home, she becameincreasingly scared.C. When she found the garden deserted, she realized she was wrong.D. Having experienced a lot outside, Jennifer felt home was safer for her.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
