A1A report from the American Academy of Arts and Sciences' Commission reveals that, due to a job market which disproportionately rewards graduates in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) fields, more and more students are seeking degrees in business and hard-science subjects.Some institutions have responded by cutting budgets in the arts and humanities and directing those funds elsewhere. That's the wrong thing to do. The humanities study of languages, literature, history, philosophy, religion, ethics, etc.-and the arts are vital to our future. We should be investing more funds, more time and more expertise, not less, into these endeavors.What detractors（诋毁者）of the "soft" subjects miss is that the arts and humanities provide an essential framework and context for understanding the wider world. Studying the humanities strengthens the ability to communicate and work with others. It allows students to develop broad intellectual and cultural understanding; it nurtures creativity and deepens participation in public discourse and modem democracy.The commission's report points out that "at the very moment when China is seeking to adopt our model of broad education in the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences as a stimulus to invention, the United States is instead narrowing our focus and abandoning our sense of what education has been and should continue to be our sense of what makes America great."These are the telling statistics: First, federal funding for helping American students include international training in their education has been cut 41 percent in four years. Second, the National Assessment of Educational Progress test shows that only less than a quarter of eighth- and 12th-grade US students are proficient in reading, writing and civics.How can we possibly equip the US for its leadership role in an increasingly connected world if we are not adequately teaching students to communicate and helping them understand and encounter diverse perspectives? If we fail to invest in the arts and humanities, our country's future leaders will not have the ability to connect on an emotional level with others. This ability is developed by studying the humanities, and in the global community this skill is not optional - it's essential.In a word, we must enthusiastically support and fund the study of the arts and humanities. For anyone concerned with how this translates into a sound economy and a sound financial future,simply recall what Steve Jobs told graduates of Stanford University in 2005: One of the most influential experiences in his brief time at Reed College was his exposure to the fine art of calligraphy（书法）．It taught him the important lesson of the relationship between discipline and creativity.1. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Business and hard-science subjects are based upon the arts and humanities.B. At present too much emphasis and investment are put on science in America.C. More students will learn the arts and humanities instead of science in the USA.D. China has spent more money in the humanities and social sciences than the USA.2. The author mentions Steve Jobs in the last paragraph to prove that _____.A. science has a close relationship with the arts and humanitiesB. investment in the arts and humanities promotes economic developmentC. calligraphy plays a determining role in Steve Jobs' accomplishmentD. Reed College supports and funds the study of the arts and humanities3. Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage?A. Significance of arts and humanitiesB. Key qualities of future leadersC. Decline of arts and humanitiesD. Rise and fall of hard sciences答案：1.B 2.B 3.A解析：1.B，推断题，根据第一段最后一句话：more and more students are seeking degrees in business and hard-science subjects.越来越多的学生学习理科和商业说明现在国家把重点和投资投在了这些方面。

（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AWhen I was a kid，I used to spend hours listening to Adam Carolla and Dr.Drew Pinsky on their Sunday night radio show Loveline.I listened so often that I began to use one of their wellknown phrases—“good times”—in my daily conversations.Scientists have a name for this phenomenon：behavior mimicry．You’ve probably experienced this before：after spending enough time with another person，you might become familiar with his or her behavior or speech habits.You might even start to develop your friend’s habits without realizing it.There is a large body of literature about this sort of phenomenon，and it regularly happens for everything from body postures to accents to drink patterns.For example，one study found that young adults were more likely to drink their drinks directly after their samesex drinking partners，than to drink at their own paces.And the effect isn’t only limited to facetoface activities of real life .Another study found that the same “youdrinkthenIdrink” pattern held even when watching a movie! In other words，people were more likely to take a drink of their drinks in a theater after watching the actors on the screen enjoy a drink.As for most experiments，these results raise a lot of questions.The finding that behavior mimicry may at least partly account for eating behavior is still important,and has real effects on health.The researchers explain that “as long as people don’t fully recognize such important influences on intake，it will be difficult to make healthy food choices and keep a healthy diet，especially when people are exposed to the eating behavior of others”．1．The author takes his own example of using“good times”to ________．A．express his love for the show B．prove the popularity of the showC．draw the reader’s attention D．introduce the topic of the passage2．The underlined word “mimicry”in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”．A．copying B．Adjusting C．recognition D．observation3．Which of the following is NOT an example of behavior mimicry?A．A boy eats his popcorn after watching the actor eats.B．A boy buys a Nike shirt when he finds his classmate has one.C．A girl unconsciously sits straight just as others do.D．A girl takes on the London accent after a month’s stay.4．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.A．behavioral mimicry is beneficial to our healthB．behavioral mimicry decides our eating behaviorC．there are doubts on the research resultsD．there are people always exposed to bad eating habitsBWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question，you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology (生物技术). With the help of new medicine，the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents，murder and war. Today's leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself，will become distant memories.In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells are the basic units of all living things，and until recently，scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100，medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so，people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life，will build new brain cells，heart cells and so on, in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future. 5．According to the passage，human death is now mainly caused by ________.A．diseases and aging B．accidents and warC．accidents and aging D．heart disease and war6．In the author's opinion，today's most important advance in technology lies in ________.A．brain cells B．the InternetC．medicine D．human organs7．Humans may live longer in the future because ________.A．heart disease will be far away from us B．human organs can be repaired by new medicineC．human brains can decide the final death D．the basic materials of cells will last foreverCBesides calling 911，here is what to do in some life-threatening emergencies when no one is around to help.Lost in the wildernessFirst，you've got to acknowledge you're in trouble. Stay where you can be seen clearly and remember to rest. Keeping a sense of humor helps too—it reduces stress and helps creative thinking. In a wide open area，make a colorful cross out of rocks to show your present position.ChokingAim to hit the top of the chair against your stomach，in the soft part below the bony upside-down V of the ribs (肋骨)．Make a sudden push against the chair. If you still can't breathe after six tries，call 911，even if you can't talk. Write the word choking somewhere nearby，and leave the line open until help arrives.Severe bleedingUse your hand or clean cotton，or paper towels，or a scarf，or any cloth you can find，and push down on the wound until the bleeding stops. But if you put a band around your leg tightly，you're going to close the vessels (血管) to the entire leg.In this way，you could lose your foot.Bear attackIf you surprise a bear，don't run away. That invites an attack. Instead，stand up and back away slowly，without looking the bear in the eyes. If it does charge (猛冲) at you，stick out your chest，raise your arms，and spread your legs. Shout at the bear，to frighten it. If it's going to attack，lie facedown，with your hands held firmly behind your neck. Play dead until you're sure the bear is gone.8．When you see a colorful cross made of rocks in the wilderness，you know________.A．someone is bleeding B.someone is chokingC．someone is lost D.someone is attacked by a bear9．If you are still choking after six tries，you should________.A．keep a sense of humor B．call 911 and leave the line openC．use your hand or clean cotton D．lie down with your hands behind your neck10．Don't tie around your bleeding leg tightly，or you could ________.A．stop bleeding B. cause breathlessnessC．reduce stress D. lose your foot11．The passage is mainly teaching us how to________.A．survive the emergencies B.avoid a bear attackC．deal with a choke D．find our wayDBig Ben is the nickname for the great bell of the clock in London. The name was given in honor of Sir Benjamin Hall，who was in charge of the work when the bell was built in 1856. It didn't strike until 3 years later.The clock has become a landmark of the United Kingdom and London, particularly in the visual media (可视媒体). When a television or film-maker wishes to quickly show a non-UK audience a certain location in Britain，a popular way to do so is to show an image of the Clock Tower.The Clock Tower is a focus of New Year celebrations in the United Kingdom, with radio and TV stations tuning to its chimes (钟声) to welcome the start of the year.Londoners who live a proper distance from the Clock Tower and Big Ben can, by means of listening to the chimes both live and on the radio or television, hear the bell strike thirteen times on New Year's Eve. This is possible because the speed of sound is a lot slower than the speed of radio waves.Big Ben has appeared in many films. In the 1978 version of The Thirty-Nine Steps, the hero attempted to halt the clock's progress to prevent a linked bomb blowing up by hanging from the minute hand of its western face. It was also used in the filming of Shanghai Knights starring Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson, and was described as being partially destroyed in the 2012 film Doctor Who. An animated version (卡通版) of the clock was also used as the setting in the Walt Disney film The Great Mouse Detective，and was shown being destroyed by a UFO in the film Mars Attacks!12．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．The radio and TV make a mistake about the clock's chimes.B．The clock strikes 13 times to welcome the New Year.C．Benjamin was responsible for the work when the bell was built.D．The nickname of the clock was given by Benjamin.13．The second paragraph mainly wants to show us that Big Ben is ________.A．a most popular scene for film-makers B．popular place to have pictures takenC．a must-see sight for tourists to London D．a symbol of UK and London14. What would be the best title of the text?A. The origin and development of Big BenB. Sir Benjamin Hall - the founder of Big BenC. Big Ben - significance in popular cultureD. Big Ben and New Year’s celebrations15．In which of the following movies was the clock destroyed?A．The Thirty-Nine Steps and Shanghai Knights. B．Mars Attacks and Doctor Who.C．Shanghai Knights and Doctor Who. D．The Great Mouse Detective and Doctor Who.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

They also think teenagers should help parents do some housework, such as cleaning up, cutting grass in the garden, and so on.As far as I ’m concerned, we teenagers should be allowed to hang out with our friends for fun and relaxation on weekends.

2015.3信丰中学2015届高三下学期英语学科强化训练（一）ATeary Joe was a boy with a special ability：he could make himself cry in less than a second. If he disliked something，or things became difficult，Teary Joe would not hesitate to put on a pitiful face and set great big tears running down his cheeks. In this way he managed to get practically everything he wanted，because no one could resist the pity inspired by his tearful little face.But one day，Teary Joe met Pipo. Pipo was asking people in the street for some change，in return for him helping them in any way he could. Pipo was very poor；he had no home and no family，so he made a living however he could .Even so，Pipo always had the biggest smiles on his face.Joe took to Pipo，so he decided to help him out in making some money. He went over next to Pipo，took off his hat，put it face-up on the ground，and started crying with the most pitiful of expressions. In a few minutes，Joe’s hat was full of coins and sweets，but when Joe offered all this to Pipo，Pipo declined.“I pr efer deserving what I receive，” answered Pipo with his usual smile，“It’s much more fun making an effort to get things. Maybe I haven’t gotten everything I’ve wanted，but I’ve done a load of interesting things.” Teary Joe didn’t answer；he just walked sadly away. Joe had got everything he wanted，but he’d done practically nothing of interest the who le day.That evening，having returned home，Joe requested a delicious cake for his supper. When his mother said no，Joe tried to cry but，remembering Pipo and how joyful he was，he tried to get the cake in some other way. Joe spent the whole evenin g helping his mother to water the plants and organize the library books.In the end there was no cake. But that wasn’t so bad，because Joe discovered it had been much more fun doing all those things that evening rather than just sitting crying to get a piece of cake that，in the end，wouldn’t have been worth it.1．According to the passage，Teary Joe .A．relied on others’ sympathy before B．was joyful in his lifeC．hated working hard D．was a naughty boy2．Teary Joe sadly walked away because he .A．considered that Pipo was very poor B．realized he shouldn’t change his life style C．didn’t get delicious cake for supper D．got everything he wanted without delight 3．Joe’s attitude towards Pipo’s getting things by making efforts was .A．ridiculous B．faulty C．doubtful D．admirable4．What can be inferred about Teary Joe?A．He doesn’t have home and is poor.B．He still prefers crying to get things.C．H e built up true friendship with Pipo. D．He was profoundly influenced by Pipo.BThe first step in exercising for most people is determining whether or not they should. This is particularly true with anyone over thirty-five，especially if they have been heavy smokers. Likewise，young adults who have been very inactive should proceed slowly and with caution. A physical evaluation from a physician is recommended，preferably one that includes an exercise stress test. While a person is exercising，a stress test detects cardiovascular(心血管的) problems that might not show up when the body is at rest. This is done by monitoring blood pressure，pulse rate，oxygen consumption，and the heart’s electrical activity while exercising.Whatever exercise program is selected，it is important to start with warm-up periods. These should include stretching exercises，jumping jacks，or active walking. The idea is to increase heart rate and circulation slowly without placing a sudden strain on the heart or the muscles that are starting to work.The next phase in developing an exercise program is to determine the amount of exercise that is enough to condition the muscles and cardiovascular system without excessively exhausting the body.This involves taking one’s pulse and finding one’s target zone. This target zone，or safetraining pulse rate，is established by subtracting one’s age from 220 and then taking 60 percent to 80 percent of that total.If you are just starting to exercise,60 percent is recommended；80 percent is recommended if you are already in good c ondition.5．Who is the intended reader of the passage?A．A social worker. B．A physician who is in charge of physical checkups.C．Any would be sportsman. D．Anyone who wants to take up exercise.6．What is NOT mentioned as a part of a stress test in Paragraph 1?A．Watching the heart’s electrical activity.B．Examining the blood pressure. C．Observing oxygen consumption. D．Increasing blood circulation.7．The underlined word “excessively” in Paragraph 3probably means “”．A．slightly B．overly C．attentively D．physically8．The author writes the passage mainly to recommend .A．that heavy smokers should quit smoking for the sake of their healthB．that we should do warm-up periods either before or after doing exercisesC．that young adults should live an inactive li fe instead of doing exercisesD．that we should take up physical exercises according to our physical conditionCEvery year many students went to the college bookstore to purchase the different textbooks that they need for their classes. Little do these students realize that，in doing so，they are throwing good money away. It may sound unbelievable but textbooks，in some cases，actually cost as much as，if not more than college fees.Many people think that college bookstores are the most convenient source for textbooks. Titles are usually kept and students may purchase new textbooks or choose to buy secondhand books and save money. But the money saved by purchasing secondhand textbooks from college bookstores is small compared to the amount they could save by shopping online.More and more online booksellers have begun selling textbooks at heavily discounted prices. Online secondhand bookstores are another source for college books as they keep a large number of textbooks，which means sizable savings for students. Students should avoid purchasing their textbooks at the first store that they surf online since there are so many “unreal” booksellers on the Net. Price isn’t the only facto r to consider when making an online purchase. Students should also consider shopping costs and delivery time when making their decision.Online auctions(拍卖) are another option for students seeking a bargain. This option，however，has its pros and cons. A plus is that students can get incredibly cheap books. One problem is that while online bookstores have a system in place that ensure you receive your order within a reasonable amount of time，with an auction purchase，however，you must depend on the auction sell er’s timetable.One way that students can really save is by getting books for free. Project Gutenberg is one resource that English majors will find invaluable. Here students can legally download a huge collection of clas sic novels. In the past students needing help with their studies would often have to spend a lot of money buying expensive study guides. Today that is no longer the case.
