To enter a better university, I must study hard. I know my advantages and weakness. I am good at Chinese and English while I am weak in math and geograph. So I pay special attention to improve the subjects that I am weak in. Even though I have tried hard to listen to my teacher and practise so hard, my math is still so weak. So I decide to ask my classmate who is good at math, and she is very excited to teach me. During our communication, I find her mind is very active and she has a special way to solve the questions. I realize that the best way to learn konwledge is to share opinions with others, so that we can broaden our mind and find more ways to solve the problem.双语报英语高二27期作文2Join the ActivityHigh school is the very important stage for students, even the turning point of their lives. Once they learn well, they can enter the ideal university and fulfill their dreams. So a lot of students pay all their attention to the study and ignore joining the after-class activity. They think it is a waste of time to do it, instead they’d rather put more time to make up their lessons. It is the common misunderstanding of after-class activity. On the one hand, taking the activity can help students reduce their pressure. When students face the lessons all the time, they are nervous and easy to stuck in the difficulty. The activity brings students the happy hour and forget their worries. On the other hand, the activity can broaden students’ vision and enrich their knowledge, which are useful in their lessons. So after-class life is also the part of students’ lives, don’t refuse it.双语报英语高二27期作文3The Unfinished StoryMany years ago, the movie The Pirates of the Caribbean was very popular around the world. Many kids were so crazy about the captain Jack, who was sly but reliable. When the third episode came out, it seemed that the story had came to its end, because the ending was perfect though a little sad for the two main charaters. What’s more, captain Jack had got what he wanted. If the movie continued, it may probably sucked. But the producers had proved that the story wasunfinished, and captain Jack kept his adventure in the fourth episode. It still caught people’s attention and won many praise. Recently, the preview of the fifth episode came out, the fans could find many attractive riddles. We still believe that the story has its charm and can attract people to buy tickets.双语报英语高二27期作文4The Amazing SummerLast summer, my friend asked me to go to his hometown to spend the summer vacation. I asked my parents for permission and they said yes. When I got to his place, I was so surprised because there was a beach near his house. It was so beautiful, many kids played there. The water was so blue under the sunshine. It was so fun to swim in the water. In the morning, I woke up early and took a walk along the beach, and I could hear the sea water’s coming voice. I saw a lot of people traveled here and took pictures. In the evening, when the sun was down, we played the games and sometimes we swam. It was such a good memory for me. I liked the leisure lifestyle. When summer comes, I will always think of the happy days in the beach.双语报英语高二27期作文5How to Use CellphoneMany years ago, cellphone was not allowed to used for high school students. Teachers would take away students’ cellphone once they saw it.But now the phone has been part of people’s life and almost every student uses it. It is just the popular communication tool. For many high school students, they are easy to be addicted to keeping chatting with their friends and not pay attention to the class. For me, I have controlled myself not to play it in the class, so I will turn off the phone and not to think about it. Some parents believe that using cellphone is not good for students, the fact is that students can learn a lot from the cellphone, they can search the Internet for more information, so as to get better solutions.双语报英语高二27期作文6The Importance of Enough SleepEnough sleep is very important. It affects we are happy or not. We can easily find if we sleep enough in the night, we usually have a good mood next day. But, if we do not have enough sleep, sometimes we will feel depressed without a reason. What’s more, sleep also affects our study or work. Try to imagine that a sleepy person how can he listen to the teacher in class or work in their position. It must be a hard job or in low efficiency. Thus, if a person sleep enough, he can do better in their life. In addition, do you find that a person with good sleep usual do not have acne, because enough sleep balance their internal secretion and detox. Knowing the importance of enough sleep, do you still stingy about sleep Do you still dare to sleep late。

It provides different kinds of Italian food. There are refrigerator cases full of prepared foods and desserts, and shelves filled with olives and various pasta.There's some traditional Italian music and the smell is of olive oil and garlic (大蒜). Above the largest refrigerator case, there's a chalk board covered with descriptions of more Italian sandwiches than I could remember.I stepped into Frigo's almost by accident when I had to stay in Springfield into the evening for an open house at the school where I work. Frigo's is the perfect place to find something quick to go. There are no tables, so all food is taken out. I also thought it would be a great place to pick up some already-prepared food to bring home for dinner.I ordered the easiest meal possible: a chicken sandwich and a salad. It cost $4.75 for the sandwich. The salad was $4.99 and didn't have salard dressing on it. I must have missed the choice of salad dressing on the way out. The sandwich was great 一great chicken, excellent tomato sauce and not too much cheese.I wish I had tried one of the many other sandwiches which include Joe's Favorite ($5.25-$6.75) and the Dante (King) which is made of turkey breast, roasted red peppers, asiago cheese and choice of dressing.I have a feeling that I'II be picking up dinner for me and the kids at Frigo's soon.26.

People who are fond of Italian food.27. Which of the following cannot be seen at Frigo's?A. A chalk board covored with descriptions of sandwiches.B.

How much did the writer pay for his first meal at Frigo's?A. $4.75B. $5.25C. $9.74D. $4.9929. We can infer that "Joe's Favorite" and "Dante" are the names of __________.A. sandwichesB. saladsC. cheeseD. peppers30. We can infer from the passage that the writer __________.A. seldom eats out in a restaurant with his familyB. feels very happy that he has found Frigo'sC. dislikes eating sandwichesD. lives a very relaxing lifeBEngland has been the birthplace of most of the great English-language theater written throughout history. Most of the plays in England that are truly famous have something in common. They usually come from a playwright(剧作家)with several famous plays.ShakespeareWilliam Shakespeare is considered the.most famous British playwright. Shakespeare has a large catalog(目录) of tragedies, comedies and history plays, and each category is home to some of the most famous plays ever written. Hamlet, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Othello and Julius Caesar are all tragedies and performed in theaters around the world every year. Famous comedies include: A Midsummer night's Dream and Much Ado About Nothing. In the history category, Richard Ⅲ and Henry V are very famous.Oscar Wilde and George Bernard ShawSeveral hundred years after Shakespeare, English people began to enjoy the works of Oscar Wilde and George Bernard Shaw. Wilde's plays are still popular now, and The importance of Being Earnest is both performed and studied extremely frequently. A Woman of No Importance and An Ideal Husband are among his other famous works. Shaw and Wilde were born within a few years of each other, but Shaw was a much more productive writer. His most famous plays include Pygmalion and Candida. Shaw's plays are loved so much that an entire theater company is devoted to performing his work in Niagara-on-the-Lake in southem Ontario.Harold PinterThe plays of Harold Pinter certainly have an international presence. His writing was so widely recognized for its importance that he was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 2005. Pinter is especially known for his style of writing. Many of his plays such as BetrayaL, The Dumb Waiter and his first play, The Room, are extremely well known.31.

William Shakespeare.B. Oscar Wilde.C. George Bernard Shaw.D. Harold Pinter.CDo you enjoy watching beautiful sunsets and seeing wildlife in somc of the best parts of Wisconsin? Do you like being around people who share the same respect and love for natural resources? If you say "yes", then a fisheries biologist is a great career choice for you.As you can probably guess, education is very important. A Bachelor of Science degree in fisheries or biology is strongly recommended. Many biologists have a Master's degree. But it's not only good education that prepares you for a career as a fisheries biologist —field experience is also important. Volunteer work, internships (实习) and short-term fish technician positions are good ways to gain valuable training that can give you an edge in the competitive job market.In addition to good education and field experience, a fisheries biologist needs other skills. You'll spend a lot of time working with the public, so it's important to feel comfortable talking to a variety of people. Good communication, listening, and presentation (陈述) skills are a must.A common misconception among many people is that fisheries biologists get to fish all the time. Most biologists wish that were true. But as a fisheries biologist, you are especially busy during the fishing season, which leaves little time for you to actually go fishing. It's sad, but true.Each day brings something different in the life of a fisheries biologist. In the spring and fall, you spend a lot of time on the water shocking fish in order to sample the population, studying fish, and talking with people. The winter is spent analyzing (分析) fish data and communicating with the public.So if you find fish interesting and fun to leam about, and like working both outside and inside, consider a career as a fisheries biologist. You'II never be bored!36. We can infer this passage was written to __________.A. advise us to respect and protect wildlifeB. encourage us to spend more time working outsideC. explain why education is important for our careerD. introduce a good career to those who are interested in wildlife37. What are Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly about?A. Education needed to find a good job.B. Requirements for becoming a fisheries biologist.C. The benefits of being a fisheries biologist.D. Some good ways to gain valuable training.38. To be a good fisheries biologist, which of the following is NOT necessary?A. You shoulcl be good at communicating with others.B. You should have rich knowledge of biology.C. You should havc ricld experience.D. You should be a good swimmer.39. The underlined word "misconception" in Paragraph 4 probably means "__________".A. questionB. misunderstandingC. dreamD. explanation40. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.A. fisheries biologists like working in winter mostB. fisheries biologists can easily get bored of their workC. fisheries biologists get to fish all the time all year roundD. fisheries biologists spend a lot of time working outside in spring and fallDOnce upon a time, there was a scholar wbo wanted to gain more knowledge each day even though he had already gained enough knowledge. One day, he came to visit a saint and wanted to be his student. The saint provided some tea. He slowly filled the scholar's cup: the cup was full. yet he kept pouring and pouring. The scholar burst out, "Stop! You can't add anything to something that's already full!" The saint set down the teapot and replied, 'Exactly."Whether it's the silence between notes in music, or some open time in your schedule, you need space to act effectively. Yet most of us, myself included, tend to stuff as much as possible into whatever room is available —closets, schedules, budgets, relationships, and even the mind itself.However, some people know how to avoid overstuffing their life. For example, in Australia, it seemed that most people there operated at about 85% of their capacity(能力), unlike Americans pushing as close to l00% as possible. So when you run into Australians you know in the street, they have time to hang out and talk with you.Remember the cup: its value is in the space, the emptiness it holds. How to empty you "cup"?Be mindful of the element of space, openness, and emptiness in your life. This includes room in a drawer, the volume of air in a kitchen, and open-mindedness in a friend. Sometimes you're just stuck with a big bucket of tasks yet to do. But at least empty the bucket faster than you fill it with new tasks. Put some spacc between finishing one thing and starting another. For example, after sending one email, take a breath before replying to another one. Drop the stuff you can no longer afford to lug around. At sea level, you can run with a brick in your backpack, but if you're hiking on a mountain, that brick has got to go.41. By pouring water into the cup, the saint most probably wanted the scholar to know that __________. .A. he should pay attention to detailsB. he should keep learning every dayC. he had already gained enough knowledgeD. he should be very careful in order to succeed42. We leam that compared to Americans, Australians __________.A. work much harderB. know less about their capacityC. spare more time for themselvesD. spend less time with their friends43. The underlined word "lug" in the last paragraph probably means "__________".A. reachB. carryC. seeD. show44. What's the stucture of the passage?A. Example →advice →conclusion →story.B. Topic →example →advice →story.C. Story →topic →example →advice.D. Reason →topic →advice →example.45. What would be the best title for the passage?A. The art of life.B. Value every minute.C. The art ofdrinking tea.D. Empty your "cup" at times. .第二节信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。

I'd go to bed early for a class beginning at 8:00 am and my roommate would turn on the lights, leave the door open and invite friends over after I'd be trying to sleep. After a month, I changed the room.Over four years I managed to have six roommates in total. The one that was my least favorite was my old friend. This is common. Friends think that because they get along so well, sharing a room or an apartment should be OK. But the fact that they don't share a room or an apartment is part of the reason why they get along so well. That separation of space, at the end of the day, can be the friendship saver.Living with friends can oflen hinder you from meeting new people. It means graduating from college with the same friends you went in with. S. ome people I knew when I was in college all went to the same high school and all of them lived together in college. By the time we graduated, they were still living together and had not really made any new friends.More often than not, I've seen friendships end by the decision to become roommates. Two friends of mine were friends when they went into college and shared a room but hardly spoke to each other by the end of the school year.My advice: move out and make a new friend.26. According to Paragraph 2, why did the writer move out?A. Because he wanted to live with an old friend.B. Because his roommate didn't like living with him.C. Because he was not allowed to invite his friends over.D. Because his sleep was seriously affected by his roommate's actions.27. What does the underlined word "hinder" in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Prevent.B. Encourage.C. Lead.D. Teach.28. The writer probably does NOT think that it is a good idea to __________.A. live with a s ranger in collegeB. share a room with a friend in collegeC. go to sleep early at night in collegeD. keep in touch with old friends in college29. The writer makes his point clear mainly by __________.A. referring ro dataB. asking questionsC. giving examplesD. following the order of time30. In which section of a website can we most probably read this passage?A. Life in the city.B. College life lessons.C. Plans for high school life.D. Apartment information.BVariations(变化) caused by the body's 24-hour clock may mean that it offers more protection from harmful UV rays in the early hours than later on in the day.A study on mice, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences journal, found that their vulnerability to UV light depended on the time of the day.The body's levels of a protein called XPA, which helps repair the DNA that has been damaged by UV light, change over the course of 24 hours. Researchers foundthat mice were five times more likely to develop cancer when exposed to UV light at 4:00 am, when their XPA levels were the lowest, while at 4:00 pm they reached their peak.Humans and mice have almost the same biological clocks which.are tied to a 24-hour cycle, except that we are active during the day while mice are nocturnal.This means that if the same variation in protection from the sun occurs in humans as in mice, the effect would be the opposite, giving us more protection during the moming and less in the afternoon.Dr Aziz Sancar of the University of North Carolina, who led the research, said, "Our research would suggeat that limiting sunbathing or visits to the tanning booth io morning hours would reduce the risk of skin cancer in humans."Dr Kat Amcy of Cancer Research UK said, "Over the past few years, scientists have been gathering evidence showing that the DNA repair is linked to the celll's biological clock, and these new findings in mice just support this idea."But we don't know exactly whether this research will hold up in humans, and we would still advise people to avoid using sunbeds or getting sunburnt at any time of the day to reduce the chances of developing skin cancer."31. What can we leam about XPA?A. Its levels don 't change during the day.B. It can be easily damaged by UV light.C. It is not very helpful to our body.D. It can repair some damaged DNA.32.

Its reddish color and changes in brightness over time make the planet an unforgettable sight.In Cosmos, the television science series from the 1980s, scientist Carl Sagan talked about some traditional ideas about Mars. Some of these ideas are from the English science fiction writer H.G. Wells' The War of ihe Worlds. Others are from the mistaken science of Percival Lowell, the American astronomer who believed intelligent beings lived on Mars. Wells described Martians as threatening. Lowell imagined them as the hopeful engineers of great works. Carl Sagan said that both ideas influenced the public deeply.Today, Mars continues to excite humans —not as the object of science fiction but of scientific study. Space scientists have collected a wealth of information from spacecrafts that have orbited, landed on and dug into theMartian surface.The Smithsonian's "Mars Day" offered a chance for people of all ages to touch Mars, or at least a piece of it. Allison and Alycia from Silver Spring, Maryland, brought their children, Grace, Sam, Ryan and Emma. They heard about Mars and its geology from experts. They could see a test version of the Viking landers that reached Mars in July of 1976. They also saw meteorites (陨星) known to have come from the red, or reddish planet. Eight-year-old Sam learned that the ancient description of Mars as red is not exactly right. He said, "It's actually orangish more than red and it's also kind of brown." Emma is six. She learned about the volcanic activity that has shaped the surface of Mars. She said, "The closest thing to Mars —the stuff —is from volcanoes mostly.""Mars Day" offered Allison and Alycia's children a chance to learn more about a world that they are very likely to set foot on within their lifetimes.36. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. Why Martians wcre considered threatening.B. Why Mars has captured the world's imagination.C. What people generally thought of Mars in the past.D. How H.G. Wells got the idea for his science fiction.37. It is implied in Paragraph 3 that __________.A. today's space scientists still know nothing about MarsB. today's space scientists are very interested in MarsC. science fiction films are no longer set in MarsD.spacc scientists haven't made any progress in knowing Mars38. Sam would probably agree that __________.A. Mars is not really redB. no meteorites have come from MarsC. Mars cannot be described as a little brownD. the ancient description of Mars' color is true39. What is the writer's attitude toward the idea that humans will set foot on Mars?A. He thinks it may happen in this year.B. He thinks it will always remain a dream.C. He thinks it will come true within hundreds of years.D. He thinks it may happen in the following decades.40. The Smithsonian's "Mars Day" might NOT offer people a chance to __________.A. learn about the surface of MarsB. see a test version of some Viking landersC. see meteorites known to have come from MarsD. sit in a spacccraft to experience the life of an astronautDThe largest conference on AIDS vaccine (疫苗) development is being held in Bangkok, Thailand. Organizers of the conference said, "A safe and effective AIDS vaccine would be one of the greatest public health advances ever." But they also admit it's one of the "greatest scientific challenges".In recrnt months, the public has tutned their attemion on AIDS vaccine research to what's happening in prevention. Studies show that antiretroviral drugs, when taken by an infected person, can prevent HIV transmission (传染) to a non-infected person. They also show that non-HIV-infected people can take the drugs as a preventive measure.But while there have been prevention advances, vaccine researchers are beginning new work to find what are called broadly neutralizing antibodies (杭体). If successful, they would be able to block the many, many different strains of HIV that now exist.Warren, head of the AIDS Vaccine Advocacy Coalition (A V AC), said there was success in 2009 of the RV-144 trial in Thailand. It proved that an AIDS vaccine is possible. It was the largest AIDS vaccine trial ever, with thousands of people taking part in it. "We got the result two years ago, but it's not as if that trial ended. For the last two years, an international team has been looking at the samples that were collected at that time. They have been trying to find out why that vaccine worked," he said.In the early days of AIDS vaccine research, cooperation was not as common as it is today. In fact, many believed the sharing of data could hurt a researcher's chances of publishing the work and receiving credit for it. Warren said, "Now people who might be seen as competitors in some ways are all working together to try to understand why that vaccine worked."41. Organizers of the conference think that __________. .A. inventing a safe and effective AIDS vaccine is impossibleB. AIDS vaccine development is going very wellC. a safe and effective AIDS vaccine will exist in no timeD. inventing a safe and effective AIDS vaccine is difficult42. What' s the function of antiretroviral drugs?A. It can kill HIV.B. It can cure people with AIDS.C. It can prevent HIV fiom spreading.D. It can make people wiih HIV healthier.43. What does the underlined word "they" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Vaccine researchers.B. Neutralizing antibodies.C. Prevention advances.D. Different strains of HIV.44. According to Pardgraph 4, it is still unknown __________.A. whether an AIDS vaccine is possibleB. how many people took part in the RV-144 trial in 2009C. when the result of the RV-144 trial came outD. why the AIDS vaccine used in the RV-144 trial worked45. We can leam from the last paragraph that __________.A. the competition among researchers on AIDS vaccine is fiercer than beforeB. researchers on AIDS vaccine now don't think it's a good idea to share dataC. researchers on AIDS vaccine are now more willing to work togetherD. no rescarchcrs on AIDS vaccine are trying to publish their work第二节信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。

He was 5 at the time. For some reason, he took a liking to my husband. Every time he saw him, Jacob would wave, dash across the street and come to visit. Jacob would always ask so many questions. They would ride bikes together. They really seemed to get along well.My husband had a sick cat that died at that time. It literally broke his heart and he grieved deeply for so long that even I was getting worried about him. He had no energy, cried and even quit his bike riding.Five-year-old Jacob immediately noticed and asked me what was wrong. I told him about the loss of our cat and how my husband didn't want to ride, or visit his friends. Jacob listened carrfully without a word and ran back home.The next day, the door bell rang. There was Jacob and his mom with a huge plate of homemade chocolate cookies. On top of that, Jacob had a huge paper card in his hand. Jacob's mom explained, "Jacob came home yesterday and told me about your husband's situation. He wanted to do something immediately to cheer him up and asked me to help him make chocolate cookies with the material left at home." Jacob also asked his mom to write down a message on a piece of paper so he could copy it in hts own handwriting. He drew a picture of my husband and the cat on the card and signed his name.I gave him a hug before he ran off to find his friend and present his gift. After they left, I noticed tears in my husband's eyes. Five-year-old Jacob's thoughtfulness left a great impression on him.26.

Annoyed.D. Moved.BSeveral years ago, a student working on a research project in my laboratory approached me with concern. "I'm doing something wrong,"she exclaimed. I had seen her research results and knew she was making good progress, so I was surprised to hear that she was having a problem. Over the next several days we went through her experiment; yet I could not find a pmblem. Finally, I asked her, "Why do you think you're doing something wrong?" "Because I'm not getting what you said I should get," she replied with some confusion.Her response shocked me. I had not told her what she "should get”, but we had discussed some published hypotheses(假说) several weeks earlier. On seeing the research data that did not fit these predictions, I recognized that she had a new finding and came to change my hypmheses. But she was interpreting her results as a mistake. With almost four years of a college science major behind her, this student still had the common misunderstanding that science is a boring exercise in proving something we already know to be true.But how can this happen? Throughout school, science is often described in textbooks as a series of "known" facts and figures; for example, DNA is a double helix; earthquakes occur at plate boundaries, etc. Unfortunately, the process by which these discoveries were made and how they fit into scientific progress are often ignored in the classroom. These details help show the nature of scientific discoveries and the skepticism (质疑) that goes with new discoveries before they are accepted.Understanding science is more than memorizing that DNA is a double helix. It is to have the ability to take in new information on diet, exercise, or disease and apply it to our own lives. Understanding the process of science and scientific problem-solving can help us make better decisions every day.31. The student thought her research project had gone wrong because __________.A. she was not making progressB. her teacher told her soC. she couldn't get enough dataD. she had some unexpected findings32. How did the writer feel when he found out the reason for the siudent's confusion?A. Contused.B. Surprised.C. Excited.D. Pleased.33. What is to blame for the siudent's misunderstanding about science?A. Her own carelessness.B. Her teacher's lack of experience.C. The method of science education.D. The publication of some wrong hypotheses.34. According to the third paragraph, new scientific discoveries __________.A. are based on what has already been proved trueB. can change the world in a great wayC. are mostly proved wrong by later studiesD. may not be easily accepted35. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The meaning of undcrsmnding science.B. How to use known facts.C. The best way to make scientific discoveries.D. How to use scientific knowledge in daily life.CI am the third daughter in a family of five. I was born at Malden hospital and wasimmediately sent to Floating Hospital in Boston. I had a hole in my heart and a low platelet count (血小板计数), which are common problems of people with TAR syndrome (综合症). I came home for a short stay after my birth and then went back and did not return home until just before Thanksgiving, My parents have told me that after I was hom our family doctor had a very important conversation with them. He said, "Y ou have two choices with your daughter. One is that you do everything for her now, in the future, and after you die; the other is that you do nothing." My parents picked the former.I do not have a great many memories of my childhood but I do remember I spent the first ten years in and out of hospitals. I do remember I stayed in the Boston hospital until I was around 2 years old and then I went to Shriners. I guess few children can bear that.I've grown up with great determination. I think that was a personality trait that I was born with and then my family developed that in me as I grew up. I had to deal with a lot of people making fun of me, staring at me, and pitying me. At a young age I realized that I could hide my pain with laughter. So I used that method when other children made fun of me and they stopped a lot faster than if I cried. Laughter was not the expected response so I guess they didn t feel it was fun to continue. There was emotional and physical pain. I required the aid of a walker until I was about five years old. I had about ten major operations before the age of ten. I had to relearn to walk several times. I think having TAR syndrome has made me a strong person physically and emotionally. Despite these difficulties and challenges, I have gone on to be awarded a Master's Degree and a black belt in Tae Kwon Do (跆拳道), and I am now an inspirational speaker.36. From the first paragraph, we can learn that __________.A. the writer's parents knew ahout her disease before she was bornB. the writer didn't go back home until she was two years oldC. the writer's parents found that they could do nothing for herD. the writer's parents were brave enough to accept the cruel reality37. What was the writer's childhood like?A. It was hopeless.B. It was hard for her.C. It was quite enjoyable.D. It was fun.38. What does the underlined word "that" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A The author's born disability. B. The author's childhood memory.C. The author's great determination.D. The author's ability to deal with others.39. When other children made fun of her, the writer would __________.A. remain silentB. shout backC. laughD. cry loudly40. According to the passage, we can infer that __________.A. the writer has a positive attitude towards lifeB. the writer does little exerciseC. the writer receives little educationD. the writer doesn't like to show her true feelingsDAuthorities in India warn that the world-famous Taj Mahal desperately needs repairs. Some say that this architectural landmark could eventually collapse (倒塌) unless efforts are made to protect and preserve it.The Taj Mahal, completed in the 17th century, was built in Agra, India, on the edge of the Ydmuna River. The wooden foundation that holds up the building stays strong because of the moist environment around the river. If the river were to dry out, the wooden foundation could crack and fall apart. Unfortunately, over the past decade, the Y amuna River has been shrinking,especially during the summer months. This is partly because of overuse of the river water in daily life and in industry.Some officials have said the building may collapse in as little as five years. Other experts disagree and question whether the building really faces any danger. Certain politicians and historians, however, are pushing the government to begin preservation efforts, or work to repair and take care of the building.This is not the first time that the Taj Mahal has been threatened. In 1996, officials thought air pollution was turning the building yellow. The Indian government ordered nearby factories to stop burning coal or leave the area.The Taj Mahal was built by a former emperor of India in honor of his dead wife. Many architects say the building is a masterpiece of symmetry. Symmetry is a visual technique where the right side of an object looks the same as the left side of the object.The Taj Mahal has been named as one of the Seven Wonders of the World, a list of amazing human-made landmarks. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) lists the Taj Mahal as a World Heritage Site and helps preserve the hmous structure.41. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Taj Mahal, the symbol of Indian culture.B. Seven Wonders of the World.C. History of the Taj Mahal.D. Trouble at the Taj Mahal.42. The underlined word "moist" in Paragraph 2 probably means "__________".A. slightly wetB. very coolC. smokyD. clean43. We can learn from the third paragraph that __________.A. no repair work has ever been done with the Taj MahalB. some experts believe the Taj Mahal doesn't need repairsC. the government has decided to repair the Taj Mahal recentlyD. the Taj Mahal will be closed within five years44.What did the government do to protect the Taj Mahal from protection?A. Cleabed the Yamuna River.B. Closed nearby factories.C. Painted the building yellow.D. Asked nearby factories to stop burning coal.45.According to the passage, the Taj Mahal __________.A. has a history of more than 500 yearsB. was built in memory of a kingC. is of great architectural significanceD. now belongs to the UNESCO第二节信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。

People text in movie theaters, in class and even while driving. But one woman was caught texting in a really unusual place —her own wedding.After making her way down the aisle(过道) with her father, the Califomia bride stopped, pulled a cellphone out of the top ofher dress alnd began to text under her veil. She used one hand to text as the other held her father's hand."This is part of a weedding video I shot in August, 2008 at the Mission Beach Women's Club in San Dicgo, CA," videographer James Costa wrote on his YouTube page." It was perfectly normal except for this funny clip of the bride texting.""At one point, I noticed her doing it through my lens(镜头) and I had to pull away from the camera to make sure I was seeing what I thought I was seeing," Costa wrote.The preacher could be heard in the background beginning the ceremony. The bride's back was to her guests, but Costa caught the moment with his camera. "The preacher was busy reading his opening comments and the bride's back was to the guests who were there," Costa wrote. "I was the only one to see her. Her dad glanced at her and then saw me taking a video!"The bride's father appeared embarrassed and at one point opened his mouth and began to move his arm as though he was going to say something to her, but he stopped himself from doing so, and let the bride do —or text —whatever she wanted on her special day.26.

On 15 December, 2010, I started a challenge to spend a year without shopping for clothes. It hasn't been easy. Why did I decide to take a year off from shopping for clothes?Financial reasonsIn 2010, my financial circumstances changed, but my spending habits didn't. I was eaming less but not spending less. Tired of working in a company, I started an online business in early 2010. While the experience helped me in many ways, it didn' t increase my income. . Practical reasonsMost women wear only 20-30% of their clothes. A year without shopping for clothes gave me a chance to increase the percentage. I wasn't adding any new pieces to my wardrobe (衣橱), so I was forced to reach for those I hadn't worn for ages. Over the past year, I found myself wearing items that had hung for months. You know sometimes children get so many toys that they can't play with them all. After a few weeks they "discover" the old toys and it's almost like having new ones. I found all sorts of new toys in my wardrobe.Creative reasonsShopping is nearly a sport for many women, me included. I'm great at it. I could have represented Australia in the shopping Olympics, if such a thing existed. But when you look at the bigger picture, it's rather sad to consider all that creative energy going into shopping. I learned to use that creative energy for other purposes.Now as the end of my challenge gets close, I have mixed feelings. To help me deal with things, I've been thinking about what I've leamed over the past year.31. What can we leam from Paragraph 2?A. The writer thought highly of her job in the company.B. The wnter became tired of operating an online business.C. The writer benefited in some ways from her online business.D. Starting an online business allowod the writer to spend more money.32. The underlined part "new toys" in Paragraph 3 refers to __________.A. toys for kidsB. unworn clothesC. things used for shoppingD. shopping habits33. By saying "I could have represented Australia in the shopping Olympics", the writer means __________. .A. she wants to take part in the Olympic GamesB. she is proud of Australian shoppersC. she is good at shoppingD. she does well in sports34. Which of the following reasons for giving up shopping is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. To save money.B. To spare energy.C. To wear the unworn clothes.D. To spend more time with friends.35. What would be talked about in the following paragraph?A. What the writer has learned from that experience.B. How to form good shopping habits.C. Why the writer has mixed feelings.D. How to avoid shopping.CSearch efforts are continuing in south-eastern Turkey for survivors of Sunday's powerful 7.2 magnitude earthquake. The number of the dead reported has exceeded (超过) 200 and the number is expected to continue to increase. Rescue workers are racing against time to final the hundreds of people believed to be trapped under the rubble(碎砖) of buildings that fell after the quake.The 7.2 magnitude quake severely damaged thousands of buildings. Despite battling against the numerous aftershocks, rescue efforts have been successful. A woman was dug out of her fallen apartment block afler being trapped for 10 hours. Then she called out for her mother, who was injured. The survivors are from the town Ercis, one of the worst hit areas where as many as l00 buildings were reported collapsed.Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan visited Van, the main city in the quake-stricken region. He warns there may still be worse news to come. He says the biggest concern is for the villages because the buildings are made of mud and are more vulnerable to quakes. He says almost all buildings in such villages are destroyed. With the telephone system failing in many places, there has been little news from the area. Many of the roads have also been cut off, adding to the difficulties of rescue efforts.The mountainous south-eastern region of Turkey, where the quake struck, is one of the poorest parts of the country. Weather conditions worsened late Sunday, with freezing temperatures and forecasts for snow.Turkey sits on major geological fault lines. In 1999, two earthquakes registering more than 7,0 on the Richter scale killed almost 20,000 people in populated parts of the north-western region of the country.36.

She's flying from London to Tallinn, where a little boy will be waiting to greet her at the airport. "It's his fourth birthday." she said, smiling. "I haven't seen him for three months and I can't wait to see how much he has grown."From the way she's talking, you'd imagine Rebecca is going to visit a nephew or a fiiend's child. Instead, this tall, attractive 28-year-old woman from London is going to spencl a long weekend with her son, whom she left two years ago when she walked away from him and her husband. "He has a very good father and grandmother. I feel he's better off living with them than with me," she said calmly. "I want him to be with me, but I just can't be sure that would work."Yet public attitude towards women like Rebecca, who have chosen to live away from their children, is that they are at some level irresponsible. In our society women who fail to put their children before themselves are seen as unnatural. Whispers follow, "What's wrong with her? I would never do that."Sarah Hart is the co-chairperson of Match, a charity for mothers who don't live with their children, and the author of A Mother Apart, a book for the 200,000 or so British women in this situation. She says that there is still a hug discrepancy in how we view mothers and fathers not living with their children. "We usually think that it's very painful for men to be separated from their kids but that this is just how things work out. But when a woman does it, our judgment is unforgiving," she says. "People usually think that she must have done something wrong and that in some way she must be unfit." .41. How does the writer lead to the topic of the passage?A. By telling Rebecca's story.B.

And here he was in my class trying to leam a(n) 9 language, which he had never touched before.When he was in my class, onc thing that stood out was that he had a(n) 10 time speaking English. But when he walked in my room yesterday, all of that was missing. In walked a calm, 11 boy who spoke and understood English far better than when he left me in June. He even 12 to speak to my class in the sixth grade in English. He told me he remembered doing sign language and the video I made to help him 13 his English.His visit 14 a lot to me not only because he has made great progress, but also because it reminded me what it means to be a teacher —to have a lasting influence on 15 .l.

The very first call I had was from 16 single mother. She was weeping. She told me she had got into a terrible car accident 17 made her lose her job, so she fell behind with her rent.

The doctors feared she might become too weak to fight the illness, so they suggested giving her a shot which would energize her spirit for a while.Today was the day when the family might briefly have their mother back. Since she was ill, there has been a void(空虚感) which no one else could fill. She was a stay-at-home mom in her whole life. Being an only child, she wanted to have a dozen children, but her health only allowed for six to be born. She was always there keeping the house clean and cooking for the family. The mother was satisfied with her life, though she was the type of person who probably could have been succcssful no matter what she chose to do.After the shot, the mother opened her eyes, and gestured that she was getting up. Gaining her strength, she began walking to the kitchen.Everyone stared in disbelief as she placed a pot on the stove. The eldest son asked his mother what she was doing. In a loud voice she said, "I am cooking supper." "You should do something special with your time instead of wasting it on us," said a child. "You could go and take the boat out on the lake," another child said loudly.The mother patiently listened to the many possibilities, and then said, "No ... I don't want to do any of those things. My true joy in life has always been serving my family."After the supper, she fell asleep forever with a smile on her face.26. The shot given to the mother could __________. .A. completely cure herB. help reduce the pain caused by the cancerC. bring her energy back for a short timeD. help her fight the cancer for a long time27. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the mother?A. She had no sister or brother.B. She was happy with her life.C. She gave birth to six children.D. She had a good job in a company.28. When the mother said she was cooking supper, her children most probably were __________.A.angryB.shockedC.happyD.relaxed29. The mother's truc happincss lied inA. leaving the hospitalB.staying at home aloneC. cooking different foodD. doing things for her family30. What would be the best title for this passage?A. A poor decision.B. A mother's last supper for her family.C. A strong mother.D. A fight against cancer.BNutrition influcnces not only students' grades at school but their growth and development. Improper nutrition is one of the causes of childhood obesity. What can you do to help your childavoid childhood obesity?My first piece of advice is to look in your fridge. What are you buying at the grocery store? Think about it: if you don't buy junk food or snacks, your kids won't eat them at home. Now if you're like me —both of your kids are at school, you'II know you can't police them every second of the day. This is the time when you'II need to talk to your children about their food choices. If you don't know the right food choices, there are so many free resources on-line to guide you.Try new things. I was very surprised to find out my 4-year-old daughter likes balsamic vinegar —she calls it the "black saucc". She likes to have it with tomatoes and cucumbers. You just nevcr know what your kids might like.Don't get stressed if you can't always prepare something healthy. You may sometimes leave the house and forget to take something out for dinner, or you are running late and there's no time to cook before you have to take one of the kids somewhere. However, you can still make healthy choices while dining out. Many of the fast food restaurants offer fruit and milk instead of soda. I like to buy organic frozen pizzas fiom the organic market —for a quick dinner solution(解决办法). All the ingredients are natural. What I do is to serve the pizra with something raw: letruce, cucumbers, tomatoes, or fruit to try to give the kids something healthy with that meal.In closing, take baby steps. Don't try to change your family's eating habits in one go, or you'll go nuts.31.

The storm weakened as it moved north. But Irene brought heavy rains and strong winds to the populated (人口稠密的) east coast.Hundreds of thousands of people were told to leave areas likely to suffer flood. That included parts of New York City where Mayor Michael Bloomberg ordered over two hundred and fifty thousand people to evacuate.Irene is blamed for more than forty deaths in the United States. Five deaths were reporwd in the Caribbean. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo estimated his state suffered one billion dollars in damage. Estimates place the total damage from the storm at about seven billion dollars. Insurance (保险业) companies are expected to pay forty to fifty percent of these costs. But costs of lost trade in the travel industry, especially in North Carolina, will be high at a time when the nation's economy is struggling.High winds and flood from Irene brought down electrical lines, causing about four million people to lose power. Days after the storm, hundreds of thousands were still without electricity.Many states in the path of Irene have reported disasters. Governors in several states asked over four thousand National Guard members to help in rescue. In North Carolina, some communities near the ocean were flooded and cut off from the mainland. And the small northeastern state of Vermont was especially hard hit. Emergency workers have had to airlift food and supplies to thousands of people trapped by flood waters. Officials said it was the worst flood in Vermont in almost one hundred years.A man described what he saw in the community of Woodstock in Vermont. He said, "The water in the yard was almost up to the house, which is another ten feet above this level. It is probably fifteen or twenty feet above the normal river level.
