【关键字】学期横峰中学2016-17学年度上学期周练（第十八周）高三年级英语试卷考试日期：一、阅读理解（每小题2.5分，共20分）AIn the Pacific Northwest there is a kind of owl (猫头鹰) that serves as a unique piece to the Northwest habitat (栖息地) — the northern spotted owl.Northern spotted owls are known to be curious. When seeing you, these owls will come down close and check you out.The northern spotted owl has been a savior of old-growth forests. Old-growth forests are forests that have been around for a long time without significant disturbances. One way the spotted owl has become a protector of old-growth forests is simply by being there. The northern spotted owl has become endangered, and so to protect them from dying out, the government has to protect their habitat. So now any destruction of old-growth forests is illegal. Another way the owls help their habitat is by eating small animals. This helps create a balance in the forest.So, if the northern spotted owl is in a habitat that is protected by laws, why are they still endangered?Unfortunately, a cousin of the northern spotted owl has moved into its neighborhood. The bigger, more aggressive “barred owl” has grown in population and due to loss of the forests they li ved in on the East Coast of the United States, they have begun to move to the west coast.These owls are taking the food source and pushing northern spotted owls out of their own home. Although the barred owl is able to live in different habitats, the northern spotted owl can only live in old-growth forests.Many government officials have been at a loss to find an answer to the difficult question, “What do we do with the non-native barred owls?” Some methods include shooting them. It is a difficult pro blem to deal with. Can you think of any possible solutions?28. The northern spotted owl _______.A. is particular about its foodB. has difficulty adapting to a new habitatC. seems dangerous and aggressiveD. is a common bird in the USA29. Old-growth forests seem to _______.A. become less safe for the owlsB. benefit from northern spotted owlsC. be in danger of dying outD. regrow at a fast speed30. Northern spotted owls are in danger mainly because of _______.A. illegal huntingB. the destruction of the forestsC. another kind of owlD. environmental pollution31. The methods being used to help northern spotted owls are _______.A. creativeB. far-sightedC. unbearableD. ineffectiveBBy the time I was in second grade, Dad had become a professor. We moved to a small university town in Illinois and found ourselves living next to a lot of young students. Almost every morning, as Dede would walk me to my school, we’d walk through the stude nts’ party wasteland covered with things I was too you ng to know about and Dede was too old to care about.One day, a group of guys started shouting “Ali Baba” at us and laughing. I turned red and begged Dede to cross the street with me. But she refused. Instead, she laughed in her usual way, yelled “Ali Baba”and waved at them as we walked by. They just watched us in shocked silence and never said anything to usagainDede set an example for me that day and forever after, because she taught me to be always proud of who I was. Her stories were like a movie that was rich and imaginative and she never sugarcoated anything .While Dede preferred the Queen’s English, her vocabulary was just as alive. The landscapes she created in her stories were so vibrant(充满活力的) and filled with a wild cast of characters.Almost every day, I would interrupt Dede, whatever she was busy with, and beg her to tell me a story.She would silently stare at me through the large glasses that took up half of her face. Whether it was only 10 minutes or several hours, I would barely speak as Dede took me to places I never wanted to come back from.My mother died while I was a child. Without the care and guidance of Dede in every aspect of life, I couldn’t have lived happily. Dede taught me so much, not only in daily life, but also in her attitude to dealing with unpleasant things that I don’t want to confront.32. How did the author feel when the boys shouted “Ali Baba” at them?A. Shocked.B. Ashamed.C. Afraid.D. Excited.33. Why was the author always asking Dede to tell stories?A. Her stories were lively and interesting.B. The author had no friends and felt lonely.C. The author liked Dede to speak in the Queen’s English.D. She could make a dull landscape seem beautiful.34. From the text, we can infer that Dede was the author’s_________.A. motherB. neighbourC. auntD. housekeeper35. We can learn from the text that the author__________.A. appreciated Dede very muchB. didn’t like her fatherC. was very selfishD. thought of Dede as her teacher2、七选五（每小题2分，共10分）Today we eat on the go, at our desks and even in front of computers. We eat takeout, delivered and packaged meals. 36“Over the past three decades, people have started eating out more than ever before and purchasing more prepared foods at the grocery store, which tend to contain more fat, salt and sugar than their home-made foods,” noted US healthy living website Spark People.37 It encourages us to valu e the time we spend preparing, sharing and consuming food, as a recent USA Today article put it. It all started in 1986 with the efforts of Slow Food’s founding father, Italian activist Carlo Petrini, who wanted to bring back food varieties and flavors that had gone dark in the face of industrialization. 38 Now, his idea is almost the mainstream.Starting at the table, the movement promotes an unhurried way of life founded on the idea that everyone has a right to cooking pleasure, and that everyone must also take responsibility to “protect the heritage(遗产）of food, tradition and culture that make this celebration of the senses possible”, wrote The Phnom Penh Post.“39 It means turning down the speed at which we eat and increasing the amount of time we spend dining together with other people,” Althea Zanecosky, spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association, told The Huffington Post,“ 40 Dinner table conversations keep families together,” noted the Belgian non-profit organization Greenfudge.A. It is a way to bring back the social togetherness of yesterday.B. It seems that we have adapted our foods to our fast-paced lives.C. So, the Slow Food Movement has occurred against this fast-food trend.D. Slow Food doesn’t n ecessarily m ean food that takes a long time to cook.E. It is based on the idea that we should spend as much time as possible on cooking.F. It’s not only the food itself but also the time we spend dining together that matters.G. At tha t time, he asked people to follow a more sustainable(可持续的）living model.三、完型填空（每小题2分，共40分）I work as a volunteer for an organization that helps the poor in Haiti.

上海市2019-2020年上海中学高三英语十月周练七(含答案)
2019-2020学年上海中学高三英语十月周练Ⅱ.Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.The cancer ward at my local hospital has become an adopted home. I can maneuver the hallways to radiotherapy with my eyes __21__ ( glue) to a phone; I know which seat to occupy in the specialist waiting area to catch the oncologist’s eye as they emerge from their dens; and I remember that only the ground-floor cafeteria stocks the fruit – flavored water that quells the numbness in my mother’s mouth after a chemotherapy session.__22__ this tenuous（缥缈的，脆弱的）acceptance of the new normal that sickness brings, what rarely feels familiar are the relationships with the people entrusted to alleviate your suffering -- __23__in charge of delivering the worst news of your life: the doctors.Which begs the question, how would you want the news of your mortality __24__ (deliver)?My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer twice in the span of three years. Like most women, she’s no stranger to pain: and growing up in the throes of political upheaval and later __25__(immigrate) to aforeign country with no language or cultural knowledge, she is powered by struggle and wears trauma like a second skin. But cancer was a new beast.So when the oncologist called us in and proceeded to dispassionately plow through the treatment plan -- surgery, debilitating side effects and odds of recurrence, my mother’s fear was palpable. I tried my best to voice concerns: what will the drugs do to her body? Why was all this happening?Our question were met with defensive words __26__ __26__ to say, it’s cancer, haven’t you heard? He seemed to view her questions as direct challenges to his expertise. The oncologist __27__ not understand why my mother failed to grasp the details of his well-rehearsed monologue, one he __28__ (give) hundreds of times before: Moreover, he was disappointed that she hadn’t accepted her fate. She was being “difficult”.While I translated these grievances, he took a personal call, and glanced furiously at his watch. We had overstayed our welcome, the obligatory 15minutes per patient. That was how long it took to deliver the worst news of my mother’s life and __29__ it was going to cost her.My mother’s story is not unique. Numerous global studies have explored the harmful effects of corrosive doctor-patient relationships, including the challenges faced by those with language and cultural barriers, many of __30__, unlike my mother, don’t have loved onehelping to ask the pertinent questions, who don’t have people fighting for them.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.What really are proverbs, where do they come from, how are they __31__and what function do they have in modern society? Those are question that are often asked when people reflect on the wisdom expressed in these short statements.They appear so simple and obvious when heard, read or used, yet they __32__ to very effective modes of communication in interpersonal relationships, in political discourse, in the mass media, in literary works, in advertisements and in cartoons. Obviously people need such traditional sound bytes to add metaphorical（隐喻性的）__33__ to their utterances and writings. This has been true since antiquity, and there is absolutely no need to fear the extinction of proverbs as our lives become ever more complex.In many ways, proverbs are not so different from short quotations that have gained a/an __34__ currency of usage. The biggest difference is, of course that the originator of a famous quotation is almost always known, while the __35__ of most proverbs is lost in anonymity. But one thing both verbal expressions __36__ have in common is that they both start with an individual who formulates memorable statements that __37__ on among people.Quotations are often cited together with naming the person who came up with it, while proverbs are __38__ without such specific references. However, proverbs are __39__ surrounded by such general introductory remarks as “as the proverb says,”“as my grandmother used to say”,or “as the old truth says”to add credence to the traditional bit of wisdom contained in the proverb.As would be expected, some quotations might well become proverbs, a good example being Theodore Roosevelt’s 1901statement “Speak softly and carry a big stick.”There are some American speakers and writers who will “quote”this piece of advice always referring to Roosevelt, while others have long forgotten this __40__, citing it was an anonymous folk proverb. Another example would be Calvin Coolidge’s “The chief business of the American people is business”from 1925, which has long become proverbial in the slightly altered form of “The business of America is business.”Ⅲ. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.On Toronto’s Eastern waterfront, a new digital city is being built by Sidewalk Labs -- a firm owned by Google’s parent Alphabet.It hopes the project will become a model for 21st-Century __41__. However, the deal has been controversial, __42__ one of the biggest ever tie-ups between a city and a large corporation. And that,__43__ with the fact that corporation __44__ is one of the largest tech firms in the world, is causing some __45__.Sidewalk Labs promises to transform the disused waterfront area into a bustling mini __46__, one built “from the internet up,”although there is no timetable for when the city will actually be built. The firm has some pretty __47__ ideas for the city, including self-driving cars, re-imagining of buildings and weather control. Dan Doctoroff, the company’s head and former deputy mayor of New York, claimed the project was “about creating healthier, safer, more convenient and more fun lives.”“We want this to be a model for what urban life can be in the 21stCentury,”he said.The area will have plenty of sensors collecting data -- from traffic, noise and air quality -- and __48__ the performance of the electric grid and waste collection. And that has __49__ some in the city, including. Toronto’s deputy mayor Denzil Minnan-Wong, to question exactly what Sidewalk hopes to achieve. “What data will be gathered and what is it going to be used for? These are real and prescient issues for the city of Toronto,”he remarked. Sidewalk Labs responded that the sensors will not be used to monitor and collect information on citizens, but __50__ it will be used to allow governments to be flexible about how neighborhoods are used.Mr. Minnan-Wong is also concerned that the firm has not been very open with it’s own data. “Sidewalk talks about open data, but from the very start the one thing that they are not making __51__ is their agreement with Waterfront Toronto.”Waterfront Toronto is the organization __52__ revitalize the area around the city’s harbor. __53__Sidewalk’s deal with the organization will __54__ a 12-acre site, but it is believed it wishes to expand this to the whole area, which at 325 acres will represent a huge land-grab. “Even the idea of what land we are talking about, even something as __55__ as that is unclear,”said Mr. Minnan-Wong. “Is this areal-estate play or is it a technology project? We just don’t know.”41. A.productivism B.industrialism C.internationalism D.urbanism42. A.portraying B. representing C. concealing D. regulating43. A.constricted B. competing C. coupled D. comparing44. A. in return B. in question C. under constructionD. under control45.

Additionally B. ComparativelyC. InitiallyD. Consequently54.A. build B. cover C. maintain D. possess55.A. visual B. roughC. fundamentalD. theoreticalSection BDirections: Read the following three passage. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them thereare four choices marked A, B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Mime（哑剧）opens up a new world to the beholder, but it does so insidiously（隐匿地）,not by purposely injecting points of interest in the manner of a tour guide. Audiences are not unlike visitors to a foreign land who discover that the modes, manners, and thoughts of its inhabitants are not meaningless oddities, but are sensible in context.I remember once when an audience seemed perplexed at what I was doing. At first, I tried to gain a more immediate response by using slight exaggerations. I soon realized that these actions had nothing to do with the audience’s understanding of the character. What I had believed to be a failure of the audience to respond in the manner I expected was, in fact, only their concentration on what I was doing; they were enjoying a gradual awakening -- a slow transference of their understanding from their own time and place to one that appeared so unexpectedly before their eyes. This was evidenced by their growing response to succeeding numbers.Mime is an elusive art, as its expression is entirely dependent on the ability of the performer to imagine a character and to re-create that character for each performance. As a mime, I am a physical medium, the instrument upon which the figures of my imagination play their dance of life. The individuals in my audience also haveresponsibilities-- they must be alert collaborators. They cannot sit back, mindlessly complacent, and wait to have their emotions aroused by mesmeric musical sounds or visual rhythms or acrobatic feats, or by words that tell them what to think. Mime is an art that, paradoxically, appeals both to those who respond instinctively to entertainment and to those whose appreciation is more analytical and complex.Between these extremes lie those audiences conditioned to resist any collaboration with what is played before them, and these the mine must seduce despite themselves. There is only one way to attack those reluctant minds -- take them unaware! They will be delighted at an unexpected pleasure.56.The author most likely considers the analogy（类比）of mine artist and tour guide appropriate because both _______.A. bring others to strange placesB. explore new means of self-expressionC. employ artistic methods to communicateD. help others perceive a new situation57. The author most likely includes the incident described in paragraph 2 in order to _______.A. indicate the adjustments an audience must make in watching mimeB. show how challenging the career of a mime can beC. portray the intensity required to see the audience’s point of viewD. dispel（驱散）some misconceptions about what a mime is like58.The underlined word “elusive”in paragraph 3 most nearly means _______.A. active and conclusiveB. difficult to describe or graspC. passive but vividD. inherently successful59. According to the passage, which of the following is important to the artistic success of mime?A. Effective fusion of disparate dramatic elements.B. Incorporation of realistic details.C. Audience involvement.D. Large audiences.(B)Cinema ticket SolutionsBoost business on the big screenAt EVENT Cinemas we offer a fantastic rate for bulk（大批的）ticket purchases, which are good for businesses, social clubs and large groups.

In addition, young people are starting companies at sharply lower rate than in the past.A new report from the National Association of Manufacturers shows a major cause: The cost of obeying government regulations has risen to more than $2 trillion (12.26 trillion yuan) annually, or 12 percent of the GDP, and this cost falls disproportionately on smaller, newer businesses.It’s risky, difficult and expensive to start a business, and getting more so. Governments are imposing various new rules on a seemingly daily basis: health insurance, minimum wage increases and, most recently in California, compulsory paid sick days for even hourly employees. These regulations shift huge social welfare costs directly onto often-struggling small businesses, while being proportionally much less costly for larger companies.This is partly an unintended issue of resources - established companies can cope with new costs more easily –but it’s also deliberate. For instance, big insurance companies got a seat at the table to help write Obamacare, but less politically powerful firms – like medical device manufacturers - got squeezed.Mature, successful corporations can employ ex-lawmakers with connections, distribute campaign contributions and even write regulations for themselves. They are also more likely to want to protect steady revenue streams than revolutionize their industry.Major companies that have been so ill-managed they would otherwise collapse -- airlines, car companies and banks--- stagger（蹒跚）on because politicians ride to the rescue with bags of taxpayer money.The genius of our unique system of government is the determination to protect and defend the rights of the individual over the rights of the nation. As such, the rise of a well-connected oligarchy （寡头政治）that protect big business at the expense of small business, and the established over the new, is opposite to American ideals. Income inequality - which is directly caused by faulty government policy -- is being promoted as the reason to impose more of that bad policy. But let’s be perfectly clear, we do not have a free market but one where government picks winners and losers through regulations and financial aids.Politics is, and always has been, about balancing competing interests seeking to benefit themselves, and that’s as it should be, but the force of government should never be used to reduce competition, kill innovation or support and extend artificial monopolies by harming the consumer, the taxpayer and the economy. Policy must breed our new and small business or see the as-yet undreamed of innovations that could be our bright future die in infancy.63.We can learn form the passage that _______.A. over several decades, new companies have grown steadilyB. The cost of obeying government regulations falls equally on all businessesC. less politically powerful firms also have their voice in making regulationsD. mature, successful corporations prefer to maintain their stable incomes64. We can infer from the last three paragraphs that _______.A. the rise of a well-connected oligarchy is contrary to American idealsB. the state economy may depend on those innovative businessesC. income inequality is what the government should take action to resolveD. the government picks winners and losers through the law of free market65. It can be concluded from the passage that _______.A. Larger and older firms have a command of resources of various aspectsB. most of the ex-lawmakers work in mature, successful corporationsC. politicians like providing financial aids to the companies of worse operationD. big insurance companies have better relationship with Obama66. As to the development of smaller businesses, the writer is _______.A. contentedB. confidentC. concernedD. convinced Section CDirections: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable sentences to fill in the blanks and complete the passage. There are two extra sentences you do not need.More and more corporations are taking an interest in corporate social responsibility (CSR). CSR is made up of three broad layers. The most basic is traditional corporate charity work. Companies typically spend about 1% of pre-tax profits on worthy projects. (67) _______ In some companies, shareholders want to know that their money is being put to good use, and employees want to be actively involved in good works.Money alone is not the answer when companies come under attack for their behavior (68) _______. Starting in the1980s, with environmental disasters such as the explosion at Bhopal and the Exxon Valdez oil spill, industry after industry has suffered blows to its reputation.So, companies often responded by trying to manage the risks. They talk to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and to governments, create codes of conduct（行为准则）and devote themselves to more transparency（透明）in their operations. (69)_______.All this is largely defensive, but there are also opportunities for those that get ahead of the game. The emphasis on opportunity is the third layer of CSR: the idea that it can help to create value. (70) _______. That is just the sort of thing chief executives like to hear. The idea of “doing well by doing good”has become popular.Ⅳ.TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1.他意识到只有把电子游戏放在一边，才能在学习中游刃有余。

The message: Many of the machines are a major fire risk.The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced the recall (召回) of more than a half million hoverboards. The safety commission said that the battery powered machines had been the cause of at least 60 fires. The announcement affects 10 companies that make or sell the products, including Razor and Swagway, two of the leading manufacturers.Hoverboards, which do not actually hover or fly and bear a slight resemblance to a skateboard, have been the subject of regulatory examination in recent years. Officials have banned them from airplanes and sidewalks, and the safety commission opened an investigation last fallbecause of reports of fires and explosions.The risk of fires from the machine’s electrical system and battery pack has attracted the most attention from the safety commission, which says it will now turn its focus toward the risk of falls and other accidents. The agency is worried that flaws (缺陷) in the board’s design could lead riders to lose their balance.There is no federal safety standard specific to hoverboards. Underwriters Laboratories(UL), a standards setting and testing organization, came up with voluntary electrical requirements for self-balancing hoverboards as a result of the safety commission’s invest igation, said Elliot F. Kaye, the chairman of the CPSC．He urged consumers to return any hoverboard that did not reach the standards set by the company. However, part of the problem, he explained, was that many hoverboards had been sold by temporary stands such as those in malls or college campuses—fly-by-night sellers that can be harder to track down or contact. “That is a deeply frustrating aspect of it,” Mr. Kaye said. “Somebody can just put up a stand, order a bunch of products, disappear, and there’s nobody there to take responsibility when things go wrong.”1．Why will so many hoverboards be recalled?A．They are likely to cause fires. B．They aren’t easy to use.C．They don’t actually ho ver or fly. D．They caused many traffic accidents. 2．What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 mean?A．standard B．similarity C．tendency D．response3．What will the CPSC pay attention to?A．The recycling of hoverboards. B．The popularity of hoverboards.C．The price controls of hoverboards. D．The balance risk of hoverboards.4．What was Kaye’s attitude to the temporary hoverboard sellers?A．sympathetic B．neutral C．disapproving D．indifferent答案解析A【文章大意】本文是新闻报道。

江西省上高县第二中学2017届高三英语10月第二周周练试题（无答案）第一节：阅读理解（共15小题，每题2分共30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
ASchools across the world are trying to come up with solutions to keep students active. Some are replacing traditional classroom chairs with exercise balls or standing desks. At Ward Elementary School in Winston, North Carolina students have adopted a new program that requires riding fixed bikes while reading.‘Read and Ride’ is the creation of school counselor Scott Ertl, who came up with the idea while he was exercising and reading at the gym. Believing it would be a fun way to convince students to become more active, he placed one in the corner of his classroom and encouraged them to use it during independent reading classes.It was so popular that Ertl decided to add more bikes and offer the Read and Ride program to the entire school. Today Ward Elementary has a dedicated exercise room filled with bikes th at can be used by students while completing their daily reading assignments.Besides making reading more fun, the program also helps students exercise at a comfortable pace without the pressure that comes with regular sports-related activities. It is also a perfect way to release energy during days when the weather is not helpful to outdoor activities.Mo st importantly, however, are the program’s academic benefits. A year after Read and Ride was introduced at Ward Elementary School, students actively involved in the programdemonstrated an astonishing 83% reading proficiency. Those that had not taken advantage of the exercise bikes tested at a much lower, 41%.Though the substantial improvement in academic achieveme nt cannot all be attributed to programs like Read and Ride, experts believe they are a significant contributor. That’s because studies have sh own that physical activity stimulates（刺激）brain cells and helps prepare it for learning. As word of the difference made by this easy to execute exercise program spreads, don’t be surprised to find schools across the country adopt “Read and Ride” for their students.1. What is the new program at Ward Elementary School?A. Kids ride bikes as they read.B. Kids excise balls and read at the gym.C. Kids sit at desks for long while reading.D. Kids do outdoor activities during lessons.2. How do the students at Ward Elementary School benefit from the program?A. They exercise with high pressure.B. They feel reading fun and learn better.C. They improve their sense of competition.D. They are instructed to read at the same pace.3. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The program will be more and more popular.B. Schools doubt whether the program is available.C. Physical activities prevent kids from learning more.D. The school achievement depends wholly on the program.4. What would be the best title of the passage?A. Standing desks help school kids focus on their studies.B. Traditional teaching should be banned in the near future.C. ‘Read And Ride’ aims to make students healthier and smarter.D. Kids need release energy during independent reading classes.BRecently, when I was reading a book in a café, a man came to talk to me. This had happened to me several times before. I don’t know when reading a book in public has become a signal that we’re desp erate for attention and conversation. But nine times out of ten, it’s the exact opposite. As strange as it is to hit on someone much younger than you, interrupting them while they are out reading is rude, selfish, and hateful behavior.You are dong this un der two false thoughts: that the person isn’t doing anything important, and that you desire to talk is more important than their desire to read. If someone is out reading in public, it means that they specifically spare this chunk of time out of their day to dedicate to a book. It could likely be the only part of their day when they are ab le to sit quietly and do something entirely for themselves. Even if they are reading on the metro, it is a decision—they could stare out the window if they want to. But they don’t.The worst part is that almost every time I’ve been approached in public while reading, the person uses my book as a conversation starter. They’ve clearly noticed that I am preoccupied, but chosen to ignore it. They’ve made the conscious decision that theirdesire for conversation and entertainment is more important.I’m sorry, but your failure to bring anything to entertain yourself is not my fault. Interrupting someone who is reading—especially a stranger—is as rude as interrupting someone who’s on the phone, or deep in a conversation.5．By “nine times out of ten, it’s the exact opposite” in paragraph 1, the author means those reading in public_______.A．usually attract much attentionB．want no conversation with othersC．are often unable to read efficientlyD．can inspire others’ enthusiasm for reading6．According to the author, reading in public means the person__________.A．has a strong desire to show offB．really needs the time to readC．knows what is truly importantD．doesn’t like dealing with others7．If a person uses the author’s book as a conversation starter, the author will_________.A．pretend to be very busy B．go away without a wordC．consider them rude and hateful D．explain the contents of the book 8．The author mainly wants to tell us___________.A．it’s right for people to read in publicB．we shouldn’t interrupt those reading in pubicC．his annoying experiences of reading in publicD．ways to make use of free time to read in publicCAt first glance, Ronny looked like every other kid in the first-grade classroom where I volunteered as the Reading Mom. However, he arrived at school dirty every morning, and along with his outward appearance, Ronny stood apart from his classmates in other ways, too. His home was a mess and his parents never settled in one place. He had yet to live a full year in any one place.Every time when it was Ronny’s turn to read, he would sit close to me. I watched his fingers move slowly under each letter as he struggled to sound out “Bud the Sub.”It sounded m ore like “Baw Daw Saw” when he said it because of his speech impediment and his difficulty with the alphabet.The year passed quickly and Ronny had made some progress but hardly enough to bring him up to grade level. A few weeks before the school year ended, I held an award ceremony. It took me a while to figure out where Ronny fit; I needed something positive, but there wasn’t really much. I finally decided on “Most Improved Reader.”I presented Ronny with his certificate and a book.A few days later, I returned to the school to visit. I saw Ronny read the book. His teacher appeared beside me.“He hasn’t put that book down since you gave it to him. It’s the first book he’s ever actually owned.”Fighting back tears, I approached Ronny and asked, “Will you rea d me your book, Ronny?”He glanced up and nodded.And then, for the next few minutes, he read to me with more expression, clarity, andease than I’d ever thought possible for him. When he finished reading, Ronny closed his book and said with great satisfact ion, “Good book.”At that moment, I knew I would get serious about my own writing career and do what that author had done, and probably still does—care enough to write a story that changes a child’s life, care enough to make a difference.I want to be that author.9.The underlined word “impediment” in Paragraph 2 probably means .A. styleB. anxietyC. disabilityD. technique10.The author gave a book to Ronny because .A. she wanted to encourage RonnyB. Ronny had made great progressC. she k new Ronny didn’t have any booksD. the book could help Ronny improve his reading11.How did the author feel when Ronny read the book to her?A. Proud and curious.B. Moved and surprised.C. Satisfied and relieved.D. Confident and excited.DScientists study the ocean in many different ways. Although many marine(海洋的) scientists focus on animals in the ocean, others seek to gain a better understanding of the ocean’s chemical and physical components (组成部分). Scientists are learning a great deal about the natural and human-caused processes that shape the ocean and its many life forms.Much of the present research focuses on how human activity influences the ocean.Clean water is a limited resource, and ocean pollution does harm to plant and animal health. Some scientists are now studying ocean water to find out just how contaminated it is. Scientists are also working on new methods to estimate the presence of poisons in the ocean, which will help them develop better techniques for cleaning up the water. Others look at how sea living things get used to poisons because poisonous sea life has an effect on humans too. For example, some seafood is poisoned, which may cause a threat to humans who eat it.Another type of marine scientist tries to learn more about the history of the ocean. Understanding the ocea n’s past tells scientists more about its patterns and cycles today and in the future. The ocean’s past, which is recorded by deposits (沉淀物) in the ocean floor, helps scientists understand such important matters as global climate change and other environmental differences. The more researchers learn about the history of the ocean and its relation to climatic and environmental changes, the more likely that they will one day understand what causes such changes.Other scientists are concerned with understanding how ocean systems work. The word systems refers to all the conditions and elements that are continually changing the ocean. Understanding these systems is necessary to protect the ocean and ensure the safety of its life forms. The cycles of ocean life also have an enormous effect on human life; for example, studying coastal waters is important because they provide much of the fish that humans eat.Marine geologists are earth scientists who work along the ocean floor. The Ocean Drilling Program, a 20-nation effort, drills the ocean floor and removes material for study.Among other achievements, this program has found evidence of a giant meteorite impact (流星撞击)，which supports the theory that dinosaurs died out after the earth suffered a climate change caused by a crash with a large meteor. Other marine geologists focus on more recent events, such as the destruction of shorelines.12. The word “contaminated” in paragraph 2 probably means “_______”.A. powerfulB. enormousC. limitedD. polluted13. We know from the passage that ocean waters are important to human life because they_____.A. mirror the history of the mighty oceanB. show climatic and environmental changesC. are so urce of the fish people consumeD. are the evidence of the changes of the ocean14. According to the passage, we can know that one focus of marine geology is ______.A. the destruction of the ocean plantsB. the form of the ocean floorC. the development of ocean living thingsD. the history of the ocean15. Which of the following can best summarize the main idea of the passage?A. Saving the ocean from destructionB. Learning about the oceanC. Finding out the history of the oceanD. Researching the floor of the ocean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。
