AHow to see London like a proWe’ve explored London thoroughly and come away with quite a few lessons. Here are our tips.Visiting Buckingham PalaceBeing London’s most iconic landmark, this grand 775-room building is where Queen Elizabeth hosts feasts and meets heads of state. But if you’re dreaming of taking a visit to it, you’ll need to plan your trip carefully. The palace is typically only open during the summer months from July 23rd to October 3rd. Visiting hours are from 9:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. If you’re visiting when the palace isn’t available to tour, you can still see the Changing of the Guard.Hitting the London EyeThe London Eye is a playful addition to the city skyline. Standing near centuries-old architecture, this enormous Ferris wheel goes round slowly over the left bank of the Thames, serving up views over the London Bridge and the Shard to the west, plus a wide perspective of the Palace of Westminster. Buy your tickets in advance online, choose a clear day and go first thing in the morning to avoid crowds peak.Drinking afternoon teaAfternoon tea—a sacred, buttery ritual (仪式)—is reason enough to come to London. The British have taken a simple tea break and turned it into a luxurious ceremony, complete with patterned china, layered plates of finger sandwiches and scones in cream and jam. And we haven’t mentioned the cakes, which are often brought around on a wheeled cart. When making a reservation, remember that afternoon tea isn’t a snack but a full meal with sweet and salty elements, and you’ll be stuffed. The s mart move is to skip lunch and maybe even dinner.1. Which is a proper time to visit Buckingham Palace?A. July 18, 10:00 a.m.B. Aug. 23, 8:30 a.m.C. Sep. 27, 3:00 p.m.D. Oct. 2, 7:30 p.m.2. The attraction of the London Eye lies in the fact that ______.A. it provides a good view of some places of interestB. it makes London’s skyline seem more harmoniousC. it spins quickly over the left bank of the ThamesD. it is more historic compared to the nearby buildings3. What do we know about British afternoon tea?A. It is a short break with light snacks.B. It is a full meal with various tasty foods.C. It combines sour and sweet flavours well.D. It is complete with delicate silver dishware.B“When one door of happiness closes, another opens. ”“The best and most beautiful things in the world must be felt with the heart. ”“Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it. ”Who will you think of when hearing these inspirational sayings? People consider deafness, blindness, and other disabilities as weaknesses but that is not often the case, and it certainly wasn’t the case for Helen Keller. When she was a child, she was described as a “ Monster ” by her family members, because she would lose her temper at any time, and always behave at will. All of that changed within a year and she transformed fully. She became one of the greatest inspirations that the world has ever seen, because she didn’t just change herself, even others.This famous American author, was born on June 27th, 1880, in Alabama, America. She was born normal, with normal sight and hearing abilities. His father Arthur was a soldier of the Civil War. All was good until Helen had a rare disease called “ Brain Fever ”. She recovered from the disease but at the cost of her sight and hearing abilities.This did not stop her from the amazing accomplishments she would achieve. Her teacher, Anne Sullivan helped her and made her increase the ability to communicate properly so that Helen graduated from college in 1904 and won many awards. She became one of the best humanitarians the world has seen, along with becoming the founder of the ACLU. Among her most famous books is The Story of My Life, The World I Live In, and The Open Door.4. Which is probably Helen’s saying?A. Alone we can do much; together we can do little.B. No effort that we make to attain beauty is ever lost.C. Keep your back to the sun and you’ll see the shadows.D. The happiest person is someone who has sight but no vision.5. Why was Helen seen as a “ Monster ” by her families?A. Because she was a disabled kid.B. Because she conducted unbearably.C. Because she fought against weakness.D. Because she changed rapidly in a year.6. What can we know about Helen?A. She was born with disabilities.B. Her hearing was lost in the Civil War.C. Disabilities prevented her from achievements.D. She gained honors with the aid of her teacher.7. Which word best describes Helen Keller?A. Persevering.B. Straightforward.C. Modest.D. Sympathetic.COf the many safety measures that Disney Parks had to set up to operate during the Covid-19 pandemic, requiring guests to keep a six-foot distance from the costumed characters must have been one of the hardest.For kids or kids at heart, running into the waiting arms of Mickey Mouse and other beloved characters had been such a fascinating and essential part of the experience, which makes hanging back terribly tough.But finally, hugs are back on the horizon at US Disney sites.As early as April 18, “Disney will s tart reintroducing traditional character greetings at Disneyland in California and Walt Disney World Resorts, as well as aboard Disney Cruise Line and at Aulani Resort in Hawaii,” according to a new post on the official Disney Parks blog. Getting autographs, shooting photos close up and sharing a laugh face-to-face with characters such as Mulan, Goofy, and Donald Duck will all be back on the table.“During the past two years, we’ve taken a very gradual, intentional approach to health and safety protocols,” wrote Shawn Slater, senior communications manager for Disney Live Entertainment, in the blog. “Recent trends and guidance have provided opportunities for us to bring back some of our most beloved magic, like character greetings and dining experiences. While not all locations will be available immediately, we anticipate reopening in stages throughout the spring and early summer.”It’s not just character interactions that will be returning later this spring. At Disneyland in California, guests can look forward to the return of several nighttime spectaculars, including fireworks and Main Street Parade.However, Disney still isn’t 100% back in some ways. Take face masks, for instance. Disney asks that visitors who are not fully vaccinated (接种疫苗) continue wearing face masks in all indoor locations. You can click here for their latest safety updates.8. What makes it hard for Disney Parks to operate during the Covid-19 pandemic?A. They have to require their fascinating characters to be costumed.B. They have to ban visitors from getting close to beloved characters.C. They have to ask guests to keep a six-foot distance from each other.D. They have to make kids or kids at heart wait to meet Micky Mouse.9. According to official Disney Parks blog, what will be brought back to Disneyland?A. Taking pictures next to Donald Duck.B. Having face-to-face conversations with Mulan.C. Dining on the table with Goofy.D. Watching performances given by characters.10 Where can we probably find the text?A. A magazine.B. A website.C. A textbook.D. A novel.11. What does the text mainly talk about?A. Disney takes safety measures for guests to keep a distance from characters.B. Traditional character greetings will be back at all Disney Parks worldwide.C. Disney asks visitors who are not fully vaccinated to wear face masks.D. Character hugs and other interactions will return soon at US Disney sites.DAnyone watching the Winter Olympics in Beijing, China over the last few days has seen man-made snow. Since the area gets little natural snow, the Winter Olympics took place on almost 100% man-made snow for the first time. This year’s Winter Olympics were held in Beijing, China, and in two areas northwest of Beijing, Yanqing and Zhangjiakou. The areas get cold in the winter, but they don’t get a lot of snow. That’s because they’re not far from the Gobi Desert, and are generally very dry.China took water from a reservoir (水库) which helped supply Beijing’s drinking water and sent it to a nearby river. To carry the water to the mountains for making snow, China ran miles and miles of pipes. China says making the snow took about 49,000 gallons ( 185,500 liters ) of water. China hired a company called TechnoAlpin to create the snow. TechnoAlpin created man-made snow at several earlier Winter Olympics. For the snow in this year’s Olympics, TechnoAlpin laid over 40 miles ( 64 kilometers ) of pipes and brought in hundreds of snow-making machines. With all equipment, making the snow for this year’s Games to ok seven weeks.Man-made snow isn’t the same as natural snow, which has more air and less water. Still, the advanced machines can make several different kinds of snow depending on what’s needed for each sport. China says that the snow at this year’s Winter Olympics was produced by using wind and solar energy.Man-made snow was used in the Winter Olympics in 2010 and 2014 because of warm weather. In the 2018 Games in PyeongChang, South Korea, approximately 90% of the snow was also made by machine.12. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The classification of skiing.B. The necessity of creating artificial snow.C. The significance of the Olympics.D. The characteristics of the Gobi Desert.13. What is needed for transporting water?A. Reservoirs.B. Machines.C. Equipment.D. Pipes.14. What can we infer about man-made snow?A. Its types vary in every sport.B. It has no difference from natural snow.C. It became uncommon in winter sports events.D. It can’t be made in environment-friendly ways.15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. The Dry ConditionsB. Snow-making MethodsC. The Artificial SnowD. China’s Winter Olympics第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后面的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

And I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt: “The trouble with you is that you won’t put y ourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook myhead stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”I took my puree and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn't he as busy as the others?In the dentist's office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, "Don't worry. The dentist is very good. ""How long do I have to wait for him?" I asked impatiently."Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork," the assistant said."The artwork?" I was puzzled.The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it: on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.What a relief!4. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling that morning?A. Cheerful.B. Nervous.C. Satisfied.D. Upset.5. What made the author begin to doubt about the dentist?A. The dentist's agreeing to treat her at very short notice.B. The dentist's being as busy as the other dentists.C. The surroundings of the dentist's office.D. The laughing assistant of the dentist.6. Why did the author suddenly smile?A. Because the dentist came at last.B. Because she saw a picture on the ceiling.C. Because she could relax in the chair.D. Because the assistant kept comforting her.7. What did the author learn from her experience most probably?A. Strike while the iron is hot.B. Have a good word for one's friend.C. Put oneself in other's shoes.D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.CYou might think that “global warming” means nothing more than a rise in the world’s temperature. But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation（撤离）of an island nation—the citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.During the 20th century, sea level rose 8—12 inches. As a result. Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt w ater which has polluted the country’s drinking water.Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official , reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusaually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years .Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms.Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions（导致温室效应的气体排放）,which are a main cause of global warming . “By refusing to sign the agreement, the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years,” Laupepa told the BBC.Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries .Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable （易受影响的）to rising sea levels. Maumoon Gayoon, president of the Maldives, told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311,000 an “endangered nation”.8．The text is mainly about .A．rapid changes in the earth’s temperature B．bad effects of global warming C．moving of a country to a new place D．reasons for lowland flooding 9．According to scientists ,the DIRECT cause of more and fiercer storms is .A．greenhouse gas emissions in industrialized nationsB．higher surface water temperatures of the seaC．continuous global warmingD．rising sea levels10．Laupepa was not satisfied with the United States because it did not . A．agree to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions B．sign an agreement with Tuvalu C．allow Tuvaluans to move to the US D．believe the problems facing Tuvalu were real11．The country whose situation is similar to that of Tuvalu is . A．Australia B．New Zealand C．the Maldives D．the United StatesDMany Americans think of driverless cars as a futuristic technology that will revolutionize travel in cities and along state highways. But recent experiments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have the potential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans underserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long as lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for innovation.A retirement community in San Jose, Calif. , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows the potential of self-driving cars to transform people’s lives. Built by a tech start-up called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limited to a two-mile road, but residents are already having the benefits of these autonomous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activities they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because they could not get to them.When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these residents—whose average age is 76—will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is easy to understand why California is moving to simplify regulations for the industry.In Michigan, forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden benefits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physical disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalition has strongly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, independent lives.Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future cannot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forced to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places like California and Michigan, and pass rules and regulations to unlock these hidden benefits of driverless cars.12. What’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomous vehicles?A. uncertainB. doubtfulC. indifferentD. optimistic13. What is the modified Ford Fusion?A. The collection of social activities.B. The name of a retirement community.C. A kind of autonomous vehicle.D. A two-mile road for self-driving cars.14 Examples are given in the third and forth paragraphs to prove______A. what are preventing the development of the technologyB. why driverless cars are restricted in many states in AmericaC. how driverless technology benefits the aged and disabledD. when driverless cars can enter people’s life eventually15. What does the author attempt to inform us in the last paragraph?A. The concept of autonomous vehicles has been widely recognized.B. The weak groups are often overlooked despite technology advances.C. The benefits of driverless cars have been fully unlocked.D. Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technology.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。

ACould your best friend make you fat?Researchers who have studied“networks”of obesity(肥胖) think so：they found that if someone's friend becomes obese, that person's chances of becoming obese increase by more than half.Brothers or sisters and a husband or a wife also have an influence, although reduced people whose brothers or sisters became obese were 40 percent more likely to grow obese, while people whose husband or wife became obese were 37 percent more likely to.“This is the first study to show how obesity spreads through the social network from person to person，”James Fowler of the University of California, San Diego, whoworked on the study, told in a telephone interviewing.The researchers said their findings show that obesity is contagious—not like a virus which is contagious, but in a social sense.It may help explain why obesity is worsening across the United States, with twothirds of Americans overweight and almost a third technically obese.“It has become very popular to speak of the obesity epidemic. We began to wonder if it is truly an epidemic，”Dr.Nicholas Christakis, a professor of medical sociology at Harvard Medical School in Boston, told the briefing.“We think that these findings reinforce(加强) the idea that obesity is not just an individual problem but a collective problem，”Christakis said.“People look around them and see people gaining weight and it might change their attitude about what constitutes an acceptable body size，”he added. “You might say it's OK to be heavier.”1．What's the new finding of researchers in the passage?A．Obesity spreads from person to person.B．Obesity is popular with Americans.C．Obesity can be spread like a virus.D．Obesity is becoming an epidemic.2．In what aspect do your fat friends have an impact on you?A．They may influence you how to choose a lover.B．They may assist you in forming a life value.C．They may change your attitudes towards obesity.D．They may help you understand what obesity is.3．From the passage, we can infer that________.A．it's better not to make friends with fat personsB．obesity is a kind of disease that can spreadC．most Americans think obesity is a kind of beautyD．it needs a collective effort to deal with obesityBNow many young people are travelling around the world on their own, not becausethey have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.Kristina Wegscheider from California first travelled alone when she was at college and believed that it was something everyone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go travelling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He says he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30-year-old.Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”, which “makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything”. He said, “The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said, “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”4.

Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled(贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me.I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.CA friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office，a street urchin (顽童) was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car，Paul？”he asked.Paul answered，“Yes，my brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it cost you nothing？Boy，I wish...”He hesitated (犹豫)．Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.“I wish，”the boy went on，“that I could be a brother like that.”Paul looked at the boy in surprise，then he said again，“Would you like to take a ride in my car？”“Oh yes，I’d love that.”After a short ride，the boy turned and with his eyes shining，said，“Paul，would you mind driving in front of my house？”Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are？” the boy asked.He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back，but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled (残疾的) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.“There she is，Buddy，just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent.And some day I’m going to give you one just like it. Then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car.

It is always on a Tuesday in February or March and celebrated in English-speaking countries like the UK, Ireland, Australia and Canada. In some countries, like France and the USA, it is called "Mardi Gras" or "Fat Tuesday". In other countries, like Spain, Italy or Brazil, Pancake Day is at the end of Carnival(狂欢节). On this day many people eat pancakes, a thin, flat cake made in a pan.A tradition on Pancake Day in the UK is pancake racing. People run in a race with a pancake in a pan. As they run, they have to toss the pancake (throw the pancake in the air and catch it in the pan) several times. In some races people dress up in fancy clothes. The most famous pancake race takes place in a town called Olney, in the middle of England, which has been celebrating pancake races since 1445.Pancakes are very easy to make. Try our recipe(食谱).What you need: One cup of flour; One cup of milk; One large egg; Some salt; Some butter or oil; Lemon juice; Some sugar.Instructions: Fill one cup with flour and put into a bowl. Fill another cup with milk and pour into the bowl. Crack(敲碎) the egg into the bowl and mix the flour, milk and egg until the mixture is smooth. Put a very small amount of butter or oilin a pan, and when it is hot, put some mixture in the pan and move the pan to make a thin pancake. After one minute hold the pan carefully and throw or toss the pancake in the air to turn it over. Now cook the pancake on the other side.When the pancake is ready, squeeze some lemon juice and put some sugar on it and eat it immediately. If you don't like lemon juice, eat them with jam, chocolate sauce or ice cream. Mmm, delicious!12. Among the following countries, which are mentioned in the passage to have celebrated Pancake Day?A.

广东省普宁市华美实验学校2021-2022学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Many people like traveling, but they cannot take their dogs wherever they go. Some people let their dogs stay alone at home while others ask someone else to take care of their pets. If you’re leaving your beloved pet at home for a holiday, it can turn into a bad experience. Luckily, you don’t have to worry about your dogs anymore because Rover can cover for you while you are on leave. Rover is the latest service to offer at•home dog boarding. It’s a good alternative (替代物) to boarding your dog at a dog boarding kennel (狗舍) or your neighbor’s house.The way Rover works is sort of like Airbnb. Dog owners surf the Rover website or app for pet sitters (照看者), which can be organized by zip code (邮政编码) and available dates. Information of pet sitters is provided, complete with many reviews, specific services and rates. Now Rover has over 25,000 pet sitters in more than 5,000 US cities. And they’re all experienced pet sitters.After finding someone that meets your needs, just send messages to the pet sitter to arrange a meeting. Then, like Rover says, all that is left to do is relax! Rover’s pet sitters are encouraged to send text and picture information throughout the day, and if there’s a medical emergency, the site will send a vet (兽医). Besides, don’t worry about a pet sitter who fails to help you, because someone else will soon take his or her place.Happy doggie, happy travels—that sounds good to us. To learn more about Rover, click here.1．What kind of service does Rover mainly provide?A．Helping people take care of their dogs.B．Helping parents look after their kids. C．Telling people where to travel to.D．Providing information about dogs. 2．According to Paragraph 2, we can know about a pet sitter through .A．sending emailsB．making phone callsC．asking other dog ownersD．looking at information on Rover3．What is a Rover pet sitter encouraged to do?A．Walk the dog every day.B．Learn some first aid skills.C．Call the pet owner anytime.D．Provide the latest information about the dog.Last July, my 12-year-old car died on California’s Santa Ana Freeway. It was an hour before sunset, and I was 25 miles from home. I couldn’t reach anyone to pick me up, so I decided to take a bus. Not knowing the routes, I figured I’d just head east. A bus pulled up, and I asked the driver how far she was going. “Four more lights,” she said. There was another bus I could take from there. This clearly was going to be a long night. She dropped me off at the end of her route and told me which bus to look for.After waiting 30 minutes, I began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home. Then a bus pulled up. There was no lighted number above its windshield (挡风玻璃). It was out of service. But the door opened, and I was surprised to find that it was the same driver. “ I just can’t leave you here,” she said. “ This isn’t the nicest place. I’ll give you a ride home.” “You’ll drive me in the bus?” I asked, perplexed(困惑的). “No, I’ll take you in my car,” she said. “ It’s a long way,” I protested. “Come on,” she said. “I have nothing else to do.” As we drove from the station in her car, she began telling me a story. A few days earlier, her brother had run out of gas. A good Samaritan picked him up, took him to a service station and then back to his car.“I’m just passing the favor along,” she said. When I offered her money as a thank-you, she wouldn’t hear of it. “That wouldn’t make it a favor,” she said. “Just do something nice for somebody. Pass it along.”4．Judging from its context, the place where the writer waited for the second bus was________.A．very quiet and peaceful B．dark without street lightsC．neither clean nor beautiful D．a little unsafe5．Why did the writer change his mind after waiting for 30 minutes at the end of the route? A．No bus would come at the time.B．A taxi ride would be more comfortable.C．He became impatient and a bit worried.D．He knew the driver would never return.6．The bus driver drove the writer home later because ________.A．she happened to go in the same directionB．she wanted to do something good for other peopleC．her brother told her to do soD．she wanted to earn more money7．The bus driver hoped that the writer ________.A．would do as she did B．would keep her in memoryC．would give the money to others D．would do her a favorWhen asked why he or she wears clothes, some people will probably answer “to keep warm and to cover my body”. These are the basic reasons why clothes are worn, but people also want to look attractive and appear successful to others.If people only wore clothes for warmth and to cover their bodies, most clothes would be simple and cheap. In most Western countries, however, clothes are sometimes very expensive. The main reason for this is not the cost of the cloth or the cost of making the clothes. The clothes are expensive because of fashion.Successful businessmen, for example, often wear very expensive suits, shirts and ties. Sometimes they pay thousands of dollars for a suit and hundreds of dollars for a tie. It’s just a suit and a tie but they pay these prices because of the famous name of the designer. A suit costing much less would be just as warm and would cover the wearer’s body just as well.Fashion is always changing, which means those who want to be fashionable have to buy new clothes every few months, even if last month's clothes have only been worn once or twice. Some people have wardrobes full of clothes that have hardly been worn but are no longer in fashion. Being fashionable, therefore, can be a very expensive pastime!8．What do people basically wear clothes for?A．Keeping warm and covering bodies.B．Following the fashion.C．Looking attractive to others.D．Appearing successful to others.9．We can learn from the passage that _______.A．fashion is not always changing B．fashion is an expensive pastime. C．fashion designers like expensive clothes D．expensive clothes are warmer 10．What does the underlined word “wardrobes” in Paragraph 4 mean?A．Fashionable clothes shops.B．Cupboards for storing clothes.C．The clothes that some people have.D．Shelves used for keeping books. 11．What is the passage mainly about?A．Clothes and fashion.B．Suits and ties.C．Cost and pastime.D．Beauty and success.When I was young, my mother didn't have the money to send me to school, but she thought it was important for me to keep up with education.So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself.But because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was at 4：30 in the morning.We need every one of you to develop your talents and your skills so that you can help us old folks solve our most difficult problems. If you quit on school—you're not just quitting on yourself, but you're quitting on your country. No one's written your destiny(命运) for you, because you write your own destiny. You make your own future.That's why today I'm calling on each of you to set your own goals for your education and do everything you can to meet them.Your goal can be something as simple as doing all your homework, paying attention in class,or spending some time reading a book.But whatever you decide to do, I want you to commit to it.I want you to really work at it.I know that sometimes you get that sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star.No one's born being good at all things. You become good at things through hard work.You're not a good athlete the first time you play a new sport.You don't hit every note the first time you sing a song.You've got to practise.12．What can we learn from the first paragraph？A．The writer's home was very rich.B．The writer's mother was a teacher.C．The writer was born in a poor family.D．The writer didn't like reading books.13．What does the writer want everyone to do by improving their talents and skills？A．To quit on their country to earn more money.B．To help solve the most difficult problems.C．To write their own new destiny by working as a TV star.D．To spend some time writing books about their own life.14．Why does the writer call on everyone to set his/her own goal？A．Because everyone's future is determined by themselves.B．Because eyeryone's future is to do simple work.C．Because everyone should do their homework.D．Because everyone should pay attention in class.15．How can people realise their great dreams？A．By rapping.B．By playing basketball.C．By being a reality star.D．By working hard.Planting trees contribute to a good environment. And correct planting methods can help a tree grow healthily. 16 One of them is choosing an improper planting place, which may be harmful to the tree. Some soils aren’t good for planting some trees.17 It’ll help you determine the kind of fertilizer necessary for the tree.Digging a hole too deep or too narrow is also a mistake we tend to make while planting a tree. If the hole is dug too deep, the roots don’t get enough oxygen, resulting in bad growth of the tree. Besides, a narrow hole won’t allow the roots to expand or support the tree family.18 Ideally, the planting hole for a tree should be twice as wide and deep as the root ball.To protect the roots of a tree, we need to put a mulch(护根) on them. First of all, it’s really important to select the right type of mulch. 19 In addition, we must use a proper amount of mulch. Too much mulching may cause damage to the roots, while less mulching may result in dryness around the roots.20 Walk around the trees to recognize the problems that have appeared, and fix them before they go out of control.A．Different species require different planting places.B．Most newly planted trees die because of lack of mulch.C．However, there are some mistakes we often make while planning trees.D．We should make our choice based on the plant species and the type of soil.E．So having a soil test before deciding on the planting place would be wiser.F．The most important thing is to monitor/watch over the growth of trees on a regularbasis.G．This may weaken the tree and its ability to stand up to unfavorable weather conditions.二、完形填空On a trip back from Boston, my two girls and I stopped at a gas station. It wasn’t until we got home that I realized my wallet had been 21 there.I tried to 22 my depression and anxiety over this and focused on taking 23 . First, I had to find the phone number of the gas station. Just a quick Google search, right? Unfortunately, the number had been recently 24 due to new ownership; hence, I called the restaurant across the street. The hostess warmly set down my number and had a waiter deliver it to the gas station manager, who then called me. He 25 me that a regular customer had found my wallet and turn it over to him for safekeeping. We arranged that I would drive back to the gas station the next day to 26 my wallet.My 27 that the situation was heading in the right direction was obvious, as was my 28 for the kindness and thoughtfulness of others — from the 29 who found my wallet to the restaurant hostess to the manager, who was 30 to mail me my wallet if that was easier for me.At every step of the way, a 31 spirit was shown, which was inspiring in a world where we often witness self-focused thinking and self-serving behaviour.Much good fortune 32 me after I left my wallet behind on that trip back from Boston — including a powerful reminder of the goodness and generosity of others. My world was righted and made more joyful, not just by being33 with my wallet, but by others’ helping me 34 .As Marianne Williamson wrote, “ 35 is what happens when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.”21．A．exchanged B．obtained C．stolen D．left 22．A．cut off B．take apart C．set aside D．crowd into 23．A．action B．care C．effect D．place 24．A．lost B．occupied C．combined D．changed 25．A．commanded B．convinced C．informed D．warned26．A．took up B．summed up C．insisted on D．picked up 27．A．behaviour B．relief C．doubt D．belief 28．A．appreciation B．regret C．worry D．attraction 29．A．customer B．visitor C．waiter D．performer 30．A．potential B．willing C．hesitant D．particular 31．A．distinct B．brave C．relevant D．generous 32．A．entertained B．supported C．opposed D．accompanied 33．A．armed B．reunited C．shared D．connected 34．A．accurately B．constantly C．selflessly D．particularly 35．A．Joy B．Courage C．Respect D．Freedom三、用单词的适当形式完成短文四、其他应用文46．假定你是李华，国庆假期期间你到一所山区初中做了两天志愿者。

And I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt: “The trouble with you is that you won’t put yours elf in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till mydentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”I took my puree and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn't he as busy as the others?In the dentist's office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, "Don't worry. The dentist is very good. ""How long do I have to wait for him?" I asked impatiently."Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork," the assistant said."The artwork?" I was puzzled.The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it: on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.What a relief!4. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling that morning?A. Cheerful.B. Nervous.C. Satisfied.D.

But rising sea lev els caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation（撤离）of an island nation—the citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.During the 20th century, sea level rose 8—12 inches. As a result. Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water which has polluted the country’s drinking water.Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official , reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusaually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years .Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms.Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions（导致温室效应的气体排放）,which are a main cause of global warming . “By refusing to sign the agreement, the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have liv ed for thousands of years,” Laupepa told the BBC.Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries .Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable （易受影响的）to rising sea levels. Maumoon Gayoon, president of the Maldives, told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311,000 an “endangered nation”.8．The text is mainly about .A．rapid changes in the earth’s temperature B．bad effects of global warming C．moving of a country to a new place D．reasons for lowland flooding 9．According to scientists ,the DIRECT cause of more and fiercer storms is .A．greenhouse gas emissions in industrialized nationsB．higher surface water temperatures of the seaC．continuous global warmingD．rising sea levels10．Laupepa was not satisfied with the United States because it did not . A．agree to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions B．sign an agreement with Tuvalu C．allow Tuvaluans to move to the US D．believe the problems facing Tuvalu were real11．The country whose situation is similar to that of Tuvalu is . A．Australia B．New Zealand C．the Maldives D．the United StatesDMany Americans think of driverless cars as a futuristic technology that will revolutionize travel in cities and along state highways. But recent experiments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have the potential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans underserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long as lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for innovation.A retirement community in San Jose, Calif. , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows the potential of self-driving cars to tra nsform people’s lives. Built by a tech start-up called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limited to a two-mile road, but residents are already having the benefits of these autonomous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activities they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because they could not get to them.When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these residents—whose average age is 76—will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is easy to understandwhy California is moving to simplify regulations for the industry.In Michigan, forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden benefits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physical disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalition has strongly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, independent lives.Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future cannot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forced to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places like California and Michigan, and pass rules and regulations to unlock these hidden benefits of driverless cars.12. What’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomou s vehicles?A. uncertainB. doubtfulC. indifferentD. optimistic13. What is the modified Ford Fusion?A. The collection of social activities.B. The name of a retirement community.C. A kind of autonomous vehicle.D. A two-mile road for self-driving cars.14 Examples are given in the third and forth paragraphs to prove______A. what are preventing the development of the technologyB. why driverless cars are restricted in many states in AmericaC. how driverless technology benefits the aged and disabledD. when driverless cars can enter people’s life eventually15. What does the author attempt to inform us in the last paragraph?A. The concept of autonomous vehicles has been widely recognized.B. The weak groups are often overlooked despite technology advances.C. The benefits of driverless cars have been fully unlocked.D. Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technology.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。
