2014届各区二模英语试卷阅读理解（C篇14套）Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words:（1）We are now living in the modern city. Most of the energy which we are using for heating lighting, transportation and manufacturing (工业生产) is from fossil fuels (化石燃料). These are carbon-based (碳基燃料) fuels from oils, coal and natural gas. When we burn these fuels we release (释放) heat which p___1____ the energy.There are three major disadvantages to using these fuels. Firstly, they are causing climate problems because of the g___2____ effect. When we burn fossil fuels they produce carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) which causes global warming. Secondly, when we have used up all our coal, oil and natural gas, we will have n___3____ left to burn. Thirdly, they are not very efficient. The internal combustion engine that we use in most cars, trucks and buses, for example, is only about 14% efficient.Scientists are working on an alternative (替代的) fuel—hydrogen (氢). There are a number of advantages to using hydrogen as a fuel. Firstly, because two thirds of the e___4____surface is water and water is made of hydrogen and oxygen (氧). There is an almost unlimited (无限的) supply of hydrogen. Secondly, burning hydrogen does not cause global warming. Thirdly it is much more efficient than carbon-based fuels.Unfortunately there are problems with hydrogen at the present time: there is the problem of separating it from water c___5____, if it is too expensive, we can not afford to use it; and there is the difficulty of storing it. It can be stored under pressure but high pressure tanks are far from sage. It can also be stored as a liquid but only at extremely（非常）low temperatures. It seems likely, therefore, that there will have to be completely new technologies before hydrogen replaces fossil fuels. S___6____ these problems is an urgent matter. Although China, India and Australia have huge quantities（大量）of cheap coal, and there are still l___7____ oil and gas reserves（储备）elsewhere, the e ffects on the planet’s climate will be catastrophic（灾难性的）if they are used.1. p______________2. g________________3. n_____________4. e_____________5. c____________6.

Sometimes makeup artists have only fifteen minutes to p____3____ twenty actors for a crowd scene. Their work must always be careful and good, so you don’t notice it when you watch the movie.Special effects coordinator (协调人): Making impossible things look realAfter a movie, people often ask, ―How did they do that?‖In films, people can fly, dinosaurs walk through cities, and spaceships travel to other p____4_____ in outer space. These are all the work of the special effects coordinator. Some special effects, especially in science fiction movies, are made with computers. O___5____ are made by machines, which can make a rainy day or a snowy night at any time of the year. Fires and explosions in movies are all created with special effects.Foley artist: Creating the sounds of the cinemaThink of your favourite scary movie and its sounds – footsteps, loud rain, and creaking doors.

A short distance ahead of me was a mom and her three-year-old daughter.

As the little girl turned to watch her balloon rise into the sky, she h 3 shouted: ―Wow!‖I didn’t realize it at that moment, but that little girl had taught me something.Later that day, I r 4 a phone call from a person with news of an unexpected problem. I felt like saying:―Oh no, what should we do?‖ But thinking of that little girl, I found myself saying: ―Wow, that’s interesti ng!

But a lot of my friends did very l 1 work. Some just did enough to pass the exam. Others didn’t do quite enough. Fred Braines was such a student. He spent more time drinking in the T 2 House than working in the library.Once at the end of the term, we had to take an important test in Chinese. The test had 100 questions. Beside each question we had to write ―True‖ or ―False‖. While I was studying in my room, Fred was watching TV. Fred usually worried a lot the night before a test. But on that night he looked very e 3__ . Then he told me of his idea.―It’s very simple. There are 100 questions and I have to get 50 right to pass the test. I will take a coin into the examination room. I haven’t studied a Chinese book for months, so I will toss the coin. In this way, I’m sure I’ll get h 4 of the questions right.‖The next day, Fred came happily into the examination room. As he sat tossing a coin for half an hour, he wrote down his answers. Then he left, half an hour b 5 the rest of us.The next day, Fred met his Chinese teacher at the school gate. ―Oh, good,‖ he said. ―I am sure you have got the r 6 of the test. Did I pass the test?‖The teacher looked at him and smiled, ―Ah, it’s you, Braines. Just a minute.‖ Then the teacher reached his pocket and took out a coin. He threw it into the air, caught in his hand and looked at it. ― I am sorry, Braines, you f 7 !‖1. l______________2.

When he reached the middle of the bridge, he thought he could hear someone coming near b 1 him. He looked back but could see no one. However, the sound continued and Frank began to walk more quickly. Then he slowed down again, feeling ashamed at having acted so foolishly. There was n 2 to fear in a town as quiet as this.Just then, he heard short, quick steps. By the time he reached the other side of the bridge, he could almost feel someone at his heels. He turned round and there stood a man dressed in a large overcoat. A hat was pulled down over his eyes and very l 3 of his face could be seen. Frank said something about the weather, trying to sound friendly and c 4 .

ActiveThe sports utility vehicle (SUV多用途车辆) was invented in the early 1990s. It quickly became very popular in the United States. There are several r 1 for this. It is larger than most of cars. It can carry lots of people, bicycles, toys, dogs and other things. This makes it popular with families. It also has four doors and a big back door, so getting in or out is e 2 . Since an SUV is taller than most cars, the driver can see above other cars and have a better sight of the road. With a lot more p 3 , an SUV can go faster than most cars. It can also go on very rough roads where other cars cannot go.The SUV is popular with many people, but other people do not like these cars. First, they are larger than most other cars. This means that drivers of other cars may not be able to see the road w 4 . Also, SUVs are very heavy. If an SUV gets into an accident with a small car, the small car may be in s 5 trouble. Another problem with SUVs is that they are very expensive. They are expensive to buy --- about 50 percent more expensive than an average small car. They are also expensive to use, since they use a lot more gasoline (汽油) than smaller cars.There are two ways to solve these problems. One way is to change the way we think about them. Now they are sold as large cars. In the future, maybe they should be sold as trucks. Then people with just a car license could not d 6 them. They would have to get a truck license. These licenses are more expensive and difficult to get, so p 7 fewer people would buy SUVs. The other way to solve SUV problems is to make them differently. Some people think that car companies should make big SUVs smaller and less dangerous. They should also make SUVs with less powerful engines. Then they would not use so much gasoline.1. r_____________2. e_______________3. p______________4. w____________5. s_______________6. d_____________7. p______________Key:1. reasons2. easier/easy3. power4. well5. serious6. drive7. probably/perhapsLibraries give kids a quiet and safe place to read and to learn. For more than 100 years, libraries have played an important role in Americans’ e 1 . But how are these book-filled buildings changing with the times? You may be surprised to find out.Benjamin Franklin famously founded America’s first lending library in 1731. But the public library system got its b 2 development in the American history in the late 1800’s. Businessman Andrew Carnegie donated (捐赠) millions of dollars to help build free public libraries across the country. Between 1886 and 1919, Carnegie’s donations helped build 1,679 new libraries.Carnegie believed in the chances that libraries could o 3 Americans, young and old. He knew that the more libraries there were, the more people would have access（接触的机会）to books, lectures, news and more.Chances are that there is a public library in or near your c 4 . You can easily find one close to your home. After all, the United States has 9,225 public libraries. Today, libraries keep growing. Seven out of ten libraries have free Internet. This opens many doors for people who cannot go online at home,i 5 the opportunity to apply for jobs online.Libraries are also teaching kids about the fun of reading. The new program Read! Build! Play! adds reading into playtime. As kids listen to a book being read aloud, they use Legos (乐高积木) to build images from the story h 6 . Today’s libraries are always looking for creative programs to bring people into the library.Benjamin Franklin once said, ―The doors of wisdom are never s7 .‖ As long as the doors of public libraries are open, what he said is most certainly correct!1. e_____________2. b_______________3. o______________4. c____________5. i_______________6. h_____________7. s______________Key:1. education2.biggest3.offer4. community5. including6.happily7. shutI didn’t think I had a passion (激情).

I was bored. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, s 1 on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed in rags (衣衫褴褛). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, for I had seen many like him b 2 .But in some ways he was d 3 . This man was not sitting down with a sad expression. He had a radio in his hand and was dancing h 4 to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious (珍贵)thing he had.― Mum, why does that man have a radio even thought he’s homeless?‖ I asked.―He bought it,‖ she replied.―But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He w 5 it on something he doesn’t need.‖―Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important things. We need happiness, too.‖That man must c 6 enough music to buy a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that happiness is the k 7 to life.Without it, there’s nothing to look forward to.

The topic for it was "Should digital textbooks be used to replace traditional paper textbooks in Senior High School?" The representatives have offered their opinions, and one that almost all agreed with was that digital books were cheaper than traditional ones. They agreed that digital textbooks would change the nature of classes and that teachers would become students' partners rather than instructors in the learning process. However, it has especially been pointed out that students would become even more electronic-device-dependent as digital books would accompany them all the time.读写任务：（One possible version）Typhoon Usagi struck Guangdong China just after the Mid-autumn Festival and caused 25 deaths. It damaged houses, stopped traffic and transports and cut off electricity supply. It also kept fishermen onshore and students off school.As is described in the passage, typhoon is also a common natural disaster in my hometown. When it is here, there are often strong winds and heavy rains. Young trees break and water floods into low-lying houses.When Usagi hit my hometown that evening, I was on my way home. A very strong wind slapped me in the front and tried to sweep me up into the sky. I had been told typhoon was coming but never thought it would cause much damage. I became scared and sheltered myself in a shop doorway. Suddenly with an ear-splitting “bang”, an air-conditioner fell down on the ground just in front of me! I was so frightened that I ran home as fast as I could.So I suggest that we should always take the warning seriously and make good preparations. Stay at home and fasten firmly everything in the house. In this way we can minimize the loss the disaster will cause beforehand.评分说明（主观题部分）语法填空评分说明：按照所给答案给分。

Personally, that is what I agree with. Because success never comes easily and the stricter a teacher is, the more likely a student will be to make progress.I still remember the time when I couldn’t swim like other boys. What’s worse, I even dared not jump into the water. It was my swimming teacher, Mr. Liu, who insisted on training me every day regardless of my tears and crying. Gradually, my fear of water was gone and my confidence arose. But for him, I would never enjoy the fun that swimming brings to me.Therefore, I am convinced that a teacher’s strictness best helps his students to achieve success. (110 words)。

AIt’s such a happy-looking library, painted yellow, decorated with palm-tree stickers and shelter ed from the Florida sun by its own roof. About the size of a microwave oven, it’s pedestrian-friendly, too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach country Estates, along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.It’s a library built w ith love.A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsin-based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “That’s what we’re going to do for our spring break!”Son Austin, now a 10th-grader, didn’t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51-year-old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he’d built years earlier for daughter Abbie’s toy horses, and made a door of glass.After adding the library’s final touches (装点), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book,” and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.They stocked it with 20 or so books they’d already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids’ favorites. “I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again,” said Janey, a stay-at-home mom.Since then, the collection keeps replenishing (补充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day.The project’s best payoff, says Peter, are the thank-you notes left behind. “We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”【文章大意】文章主要讲述了Janey Henriksen一家建立微型图书馆的故事。

Lifeis short. Are you doing what you love? Are you living your passion? If not, why?I am guessingmost people will answer that questionwith "I have a loan, a lover and three kids to support". In thereal world people have responsibilities. They have to makesacrifices (牺牲). You aren't supposed to be happy with yourjob but you do it because you have to.With all due respect, they are wrong. You can take care of yourresponsibilities and be happy with your job. We spend over 1/3 ofour day, at least five days a week performing or jobs. This is alot of time to bewasted/wasting on something we don'tenjoy, isn't it? Why not spend that time doing something youtrulyare passionate about for 50 hours a week instead ofsomething that lacks meaning?I think there is one main reason peopledon't follow their passion: Fear. Fear of how others will react,fear of failure, and fear that they can't do it themselves.I thinkthe first part is for people to realize that they can conquer (战胜)their fear. You will fail at times and others willthink you are crazy at times, but if you believe that you willsucceed then you finally will.I understand that it is not easy. I am in the middle ofgoing through it right now. But understand that there are otherpeople out there who have been through what you are going throughand can help yougreatly. They have failed, been ridiculed,and comeout on the other end extremely successful. They areliving proof that you can do what youlove.人生短暂。

阅读理解26—30 CAACD 31—35 DBACA 36—40 CBCAD 41—45 ACDAB信息匹配46—50CFBAD基础写作：（One possible version）On October 9, 2013, a discussion about "Digital Textbook" was conducted in the School Lecture Hall, in which 10 teachers as well as 60 students from Senior 1, Senior 2 and Senior 3 presented themselves as representatives. The topic for it was "Should digital textbooks be used to replace traditional paper textbooks in Senior High School?" The representatives have offered their opinions, and one that almost all agreed with was that digital books were cheaper than traditional ones. They agreed that digital textbooks would change the nature of classes and that teachers would become students' partners rather than instructors in the learning process. However, it has especially been pointed out that students would become even more electronic-device-dependent as digital books would accompany them all the time.读写任务：（One possible version）Typhoon Usagi struck Guangdong China just after the Mid-autumn Festival and caused 25 deaths. It damaged houses, stopped traffic and transports and cut off electricity supply. It also kept fishermen onshore and students off school.As is described in the passage, typhoon is also a common natural disaster in my hometown. When it is here, there are often strong winds and heavy rains. Young trees break and water floods into low-lying houses.When Usagi hit my hometown that evening, I was on my way home. A very strong wind slapped me in the front and tried to sweep me up into the sky. I had been told typhoon was coming but never thought it would cause much damage. I became scared and sheltered myself in a shop doorway. Suddenly with an ear-splitting “bang”, an air-conditioner fell down on the ground just in front of me! I was so frightened that I ran home as fast as I could.So I suggest that we should always take the warning seriously and make good preparations. Stay at home and fasten firmly everything in the house. In this way we can minimize the loss the disaster will cause beforehand.评分说明（主观题部分）语法填空评分说明：按照所给答案给分。

AVisitors to London's Millennium Dome building on the morning of November 7, 2000 would have seen much more than they had expected. The Dome, a building which was built to celebrate the beginning of the new millennium, had a special display, called “Money”, containing some of the world’s most famous diamonds.Shortly after opening time, four men disguised as workmen drove a large digging machine past security guards at the entrance. After coming near the exhibition, they put on masks and released smoke bombs.Their target was the Millennium Star, a 203-carat perfect blue diamond, thought to be the most beautiful large diamond in the world, and the third largest ever discovered.Unfortunately for the thieves, the police had been keeping an eye on them for months, after seeing two gang members videotaping the diamonds two months earlier. As the thieves used hammers to break into the glass case containing the diamonds, police dressed as cleaners quickly surrounded and arrested them. The police had also swapped the diamonds for fakes a few hours before the robbery attempt.The gang had planned to get away by speedboat along the river outside the exhibition. The two drivers of the boat were also arrested after a high-speed chase along the river. If the robbery attempt had succeeded, it would have been the largest in history-----worth 5, 000 million. The thieves were given a total of 71 years in prison, with the two main leaders receiving 18 years each.Two years later, in February 2002, another gang of thieves succeeded in stealing millions of dollars’ worth of diamonds in Antwerp, a diamond-dealing city in Belgium. They used copied stolen keys and security passes to get into the area containing the diamonds on Sunday night. The robbery wasn’t discovered until Monday morning. The four thieves might have gotten away with the robbery, except for their carelessness----they were captured after they left a garbage bag containing security passes, videotapes, and documents with their names on the side of a road.大意：本文讲述了两起著名的钻石抢劫（盗窃）案,一详一略，语言地道，可满足学生的好奇心。
