第二组(建议用时：35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2015·济南3月模拟)If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock.According to a recent scientific study, people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1，000 joggers and nonjoggers for 12 years.The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a moderate pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die.The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour.The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as nonjoggers.The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries(动脉)．Over time, this can cause serious injuries.Peter Schnohr, a researcher in Copenhagen, said, “If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy, jogging a few times a week at a moderate pace is a good strategy.Anything more is not just unnecessary, and it may be harmful.”The implications of this are that moderate forms of exercise such as t’ai chi, yoga and brisk walkin g may be better for us than “iron man” events, triathlons and longdistance running and cycling.According to Jacob Louis Marott, another researcher involved in the study, “You don’t actually have to do that much to have a good impact on your health.And perhaps you shouldn’t actually do too much.”1．The underlined word “strenuous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “________”．A．hard B．regularC．practical D．flexible2. The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2 to________.A．suggest giving up joggingB．show risks of doing sportsC．provide supportive evidenceD．introduce the research process3．According to the scientists, why is too much exercise harmful?A．It may injure the heart and arteries.B．It can make the body tired out.C．It will bring much pressure.D．It consumes too much energy.4．What can be inferred from the text?A．No exercise at all is the best choice.B．More exercise means a healthier life.C．Marathon runners are least likely to die.D．Proper exercise contributes to good health.BBig Ben，the Queen，a plate of ham and eggs—no，no，no.If you’re looking for a symbol of Britain，only one thing passes the test—the umbrella.Now，I know what you’re thinking—we have rain in China and we have umbrellas too.Certainly，I will never forget the way it rained when I lived in Beijing: The streets became rivers at once and the sky was full of lightning for hours on end.People ran for cover under bin bags，the shops were emptied of their plastic raincoats within seconds and I found myself soaked from head to foot，my poorly chosen skirt and Tshirt turned totally seethrough.This would never have happened in Britain.For one thing，during my year in Beijing，it only really rained about 10 times.But although we never get a Beijingstyle washout in London，the drizzle that does fall is there all the time.Even when the sky is perfectly blue，you can be sure it’s going to cloud over and start drizzling again within the hour.And when it does，there is chaos.Trains stop and buses break down as if this were the first time the local authorities had seen this wet stuff coming out of the clouds.So—as with so many things in the UK—it’s up to ordinary people to sort themselves out.No selfrespecting Briton will ever leave home without his or her “brolly”—as the umbrella is known to us.A brolly has hundreds of uses，even on rare rainfree days.A real gentleman of London will use his umbrella as a walking stick.A traditional game of cricket(板球) can be played using an umbrella as a bat(球棒)．Nor do you ever have to be afraid of robbers—your umbrella doubles as a defensive weapon.There is no brolly more British than m y own.But it’s not from London or Manchester or anywhere in the UK.It was a gift from my Chinese teacher—in Beijing.How fitting that my No.1 symbol of Britishness—like almost everything in Britain nowadays—was made in China.5．The author mentioned her rainy weather experience in Beijing to show that ________．A．many foreigners have embarrassing moments living in BeijingB．the rain in Beijing is usually much heavier than the rain in LondonC．British people are more used to rainy weather than Chinese peopleD．both Beijingers and Londoners have unpleasant experiences with sudden rain6．The underlined word “This” in the third paragraph refers to “________”．A．people getting extremely wet on rainy daysB．sudden rain leading to traffic troublesC．people being wellprepared on rainy daysD．it only raining a dozen times per year7．The tone of the article is ________．A．humorous B．optimisticC．objective D．annoyed8．What is the main idea of the article?A．Beijingstyle rain and Londonstyle drizzles both bring chaos.B．Everything in Britain was made in China.C．Why the umbrella is the best symbol of Britain.D．What British people use a brolly for.Ⅱ.七选五(2015·云南师大附中适应性考试)1.________ However, sometimes resigning is the best way for you to move forward.

细节理解题A(2015·山东省实验中学一模)Three decades ago，Steve McCurry took arguably the most famous picture of all time.Yet even after all this time，the photographer is filled with enthusiasm when he talks about Afghan Girl.“I knew she had an incredible look，a sharp gaze，”he recalls.“It was before digital camera and with the big crowd and dust all around，you never knew what would happen with the film.When I developed the picture，I knew it was special.I showed it to the editor of the National Geographic，and he jumped to his feet and shouted，‘That’s our next cover’．”Not only did Afghan Girl become the magazine’s next cover，but the most successful in its distinguished history.The striking portrait of 12－year－old Sharbat Gula，in a refugee camp，was taken in December 1984 and published the following year.When McCurry reflects upon its popularity，what excites him most is the impact that this single image has had on the real world.“People volunteered to work in the refugee camps because of that photograph，”he says.“Afghans are incredibly proud of it，as the girl is poor but shows great pride，strong will and self－respect.It drew attention to their poor situation，and inspired a lot of people.” It also led the National Geographic to set up the Afghan Children’s Fund—and meant that to this day，McCurry is never charged a fare by appreciative Afghan taxi drivers.The portrait forms the centerpiece of a major exhibition of McCurry’s work，which opened recently in Monza，Italy，and will run until 6 April.The famous photograph is just one of thousands of extraordinary pictures that McCurry has taken over a 40－year career，during which he has won dozens of awards.For many years，frontline war photography like this was McCurry’s stock in trade.Indeed，it enabled him to make his name.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。

B．Times New Roman.C．Verdana. D．Century Gothic.8．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________．A．Suvir feels regretful that the school district shows no interest in his idea B．Suvir is uncertain whether the school district will accept his ideaC．Suvir believes that the school district will agree with himD．Suvir is unhappy that the school district refused himⅡ.七选五(2015·辽宁五校联考)Smoggy weather has become common in China.But these days，air pollution levels in the northeastern city of Harbin surpassed the previous record levels.The city was essentially shut down after PM 2.5，fine particulate(微粒的)pollution that is considered dangerous，reached levels of 1，000 micrograms per cubic meter—1.________ Schools，motorways and an airport were closed on Tuesday as visibility in some areas of the city dropped to less than 10 meters.2．________ It stated that there is “sufficient evidence” that exposure to outdoor air pollution causes lung cancer.3.________ Moreover，it’s said that exposure has increased significantly particularly in“rapidly industrial countries with large populations”．On the Chinese social media site Weibo，many users complained about the pollution and shared their concerns.4.________ Nowadays，there is a sarcastic play on the expression “serve the people”，as the two have a similar pronunciation.“5.________ There won’t be a sudden outbreak of symptoms，but normally three to five days after the smoggy weather occurs，there is a peak in the number of people seeing doctors，”Deng Ying，a doctor at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University was quoted as saying.A．The impact of air pollution on people will be gradual.B．Smog has been regarded as the biggest killer nowadays in China.C．Just days previously，the World Health Organization classified air pollution as a carcinogen(致癌物)．D．The faster smog comes，the faster it goes away.E．R eferences to “feed people with smog” have become popular on Weibo.F．40 times the safety level reminded by the World Health Organization.G．And meanwhile，the risk of bladder cancer is also closely connected with it.Ⅲ.短文改错(2015·沈阳质量监测一)Dear Tom，How are you?

主旨大意题主旨大意题(一)A(2015·石家庄二模)We don’t always get a second chance to achieve our dreams.But some people are lucky，like Matthew McConaughey.Once almost unknown，the actor has recently found himself back on the list of the best actors in Hollywood.His new movie Interstellar is just another sign that his career reinvention has been an incredible success.“The film relies on McConaughey’s performance to hold together the emotional story of a father and his daughter against the background of space travel at the end of the world，”Forbes commented.But only years ago，the Texas native was often the butt of jokes(笑柄) about being too handsome.In 1993，after meeting with director Richard Linklater，McConaughey starred in Dazed and Confused.And a Hollywood career was born，mostly in romantic comedies.For a long time，the whole world believed McConaughey was just a handsome guy with comic talent.But McConaughey stopped starring in that type of movie，and began to use his looks differently.Slowly he built up his reputation as a serious actor.In 2013，McConaughey was offered to play an AIDS activist in Dallas Buyers Club.The role saw the normally muscular actor losing 50 pounds in order to appear sick.His performance won him an Oscar for Best Actor.The actor gave thanks to someone he has always looked up to as a hero during his Oscar acceptance speech.When he was 15，the actor said，he decided that his hero would be himself in 10 years.But 10 years later，he pushed the deadline ahead another decade.Then 10 years later，another decade.“My hero’s always 10 years away，”he said.“I’m never going to attain that.That keeps me with somebody to keep on chasing.”Or perhaps constantly chasing the chance to be his own hero has given him a second chance to pursue his dreams.【解题导语】本文是一篇人物介绍，主要讲述了演员McConaughey因不满足自己所取得的成绩，不断挑战自我，努力向前，最终成为闻名好莱坞的著名演员，成就了自己梦想的故事。

第十二组(建议用时：30分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2015·陕西质量检测二)Dear Mr.Wolfson，The purpose of this letter is to inform you of one of our citizens who I believe should receive some special recognition for dedicated(敬业的) community service.The person I recommend is Elizabeth Samuelson.I believe you know her in your position as volunteer coordinator(协调员)．I have known Elizabeth for more than 20 years as both a friend and a neighbor.During that time I have seen her work tirelessly on scores of community projects and committees.As far as I know，she has never received any kind of recognition from the community for her work.I believe she should be given some sort of special recognition.Just last year alone，she worked on at least six different community projects including the Park Renewal Project and the Heritage Homes FundRaising Banquet.In addition，she is a weekly driver for the MealsonWheels program and she visits patients in the care unit on a regular basis.Whenever a project or committee needs her，she will put herself into the work wholeheartedly.I’m sure that if you check with a few of your staff members who have been there over the years，they will confirm Elizabeth’s community service record and probably be able to add many examples to the few I have given here.By the way，Elizabeth has no idea that I am writing this.She is a humble(谦虚的) person，and if she were aware of it，she would not allow me to send it.I thought about writing such a letter about her a number of times in the past but just never took action.Then last week，I noticed in the paper that you sponsor(主办) an annual dinner at which dozens of awards are given out to people with much less community service than Elizabeth.In fact，I checked with her and she has never even been invited to that annual event!I urge you to correct that omission(疏忽) now and take action to see that Elizabeth is properly recognized for her many years of silent but outstanding service to this community.Sincerely，Linda Sullivan 1．Linda is Elizabeth’s ________．A．friend and colleague B．neighbor and leaderC．neighbor and worker D．friend and neighbor2．From the letter we know that Linda ________ Elizabeth much.A．depends on B．looks down uponC．ignores D．respects3．According to the letter，Elizabeth ________．A．wants to be asked to take part in the annual eventB．contributes much to the communityC．has been invited to the annual dinnerD．has been given a lot of honors4．What can we learn about Mr.Wolfson from the letter?A．He knows Linda quite well.B．He is a careless person.C．He tries something to reward those who have done much community service.D．He tries his best to find Elizabeth and do something to reward her.B(2015·河南省实验中学检测)Being an astronaut sounds cool，doesn’t it？In space，they get to do some pretty amazing things，like floating in zero gravity.However，there are also plenty of things that astronauts can’t do because of their weightless environment，and that’s very sad.What’s worse，they can’t even let their sadness show—because it’s impossible to cry in zero gravity.Of course，astronauts can still produce tears.But crying is much more difficult in space，reported The Atlantic in January.Without gravity，tears d on’t flow downward out of the eyes like they do here on Earth.This means that when you cry in space，your tears have nowhere to go—they just stick to your eyes.Astronaut Andrew Feustel experienced this during one of his spacewalks.“Tears，”he said，“don’t fa ll off your eyes...They just kind of stay there.”Besides making your vision unclear，this can also cause physical pain.Back on Earth，tears are supposed to bring comfort to the eyes.But that’s not the case in space.The space environment dries out astronauts’ eyes，and when tears suddenly wet the eyes，it can cause pain rather than comfort.“My right eye is painful like crazy.”Feustel told his teammate during the walk.Since gravity doesn’t work in space，astronauts need some extra help to get rid of the tears.Feustel chose to rub his eyes against his helmet to wipe the tears away.Another choice is to just wait—“When the tears get big enough they simply break free of the eye and float around，” astronaut Ron Parise told The Atlantic.There are lots of small things—things like crying—that we are so used to on Earth.We usually take them for granted，until they become a problem in a totally different environment，like space.There，astronauts can’t talk to each other directly.They also can’t eat or drink in normal ways.T hey can’t even burp(打嗝)，because there is no gravity to hold the food down in their stomach.If they do burp，they just end up throwing up(呕吐) everything in their stomach，according to the UK National Space Center.Thus，perhaps it’s only space explorers who can honestly say，“Gravity，you’re the best.”5．What can we conclude from Paragraphs 2 and 3?A．Astronauts are unable to feel sad in space.B．Astronauts produce fewer tears in space.C．Tears produced in space flow down more slowly.D．Tears produced in spa ce don’t flow downward.6．What effect do tears have on astronauts?A．They cause physical pain.B．They bring comfort to them.C．They make their vision clearer.D．They float around and cause trouble.7．What can the astronaut do to get rid of the tears?A．Rub his eyes against his helmet to let the tears float forward.B．Rub his eyes by hand to let the tears float around.C．Get the tears big enough to fall off of his eyes.D．Get the tears big enough to break away from his eyes.8．What’s the last but one paragraph mainly about?A．Suggestions on how astronauts can stay comfortable in space.B．Other basic things that are difficult to do in space.C．Why burping is impossible in space.D．Things that human s can’t do without gravity.Ⅱ.完形填空(2015·河南三市第二次调研)Please Dress Me in RedI have worked with numerous children infected
