AIt was about 11:15 pm on the passenger ship California. The night was freezing cold and the water was filled with ice from the North Pole, making it difficult for the ship to sail on .In the radio room, operator Cyril Evans listened to the radio-talk between a nearby passenger ship and the telegraph station on the Canadian island of Newfoundland. Evans interrupted it and said, ―We’re stopped and surrounded by ice. Be careful as you pass through these waters.‖ The radio operator on the nearby ship replied, ―I’m too busy to talk now. I have many messages to send to the telegraph station. ‖ Twenty minutes later, as he turned off his radio and went to bed, Evans could still hear the ship sending its passengers’ telegrams.Earlier in the evening t he California’s captain, Stanley Lord, had seen another ship approaching. It looked about the size of his own, but attempts to contact the ship failed. It lay dark and mysterious about 10 miles away. At 12:40 am there appeared a sudden flash of light just over the mysztery ship. Captain Lord, thinking the ship might need help, ordered his officers to signal the ship by lamp. There was no reply. Three more rockets then exploded, none appeared to go higher than halfway up the mast of the mystery ship. Then at about 2:00 am it turned and slipped into the darkness.In the light of the sawn there was no mystery ship, but 20 miles away was the scene of a great disaster. Unfortunately, the mystery ship had stopped directly in front of the California, preventing people on board from seeing clearly. If this ship had not been there, Captain Lord would have recognized that the rockets were SOS rockets that came not from the mystery ship but from a more distant ship which the California could not see. If Cyril Evans had kept his radio on for just 30 minutes more he would have heard SOS signals coming from that distant ship he spoke with the night before. That ship was the Titanic which was sinking fast, leaving 1,500 of its passengers dead. It was April 14,1912.26．From whose point of view is the story told?A．People on the Titanic.B．People on the California.C．People at telegraph station.D．People on Newfoundland.27．Why were the rockets really fired?A．To celebrate the journey.B．To signal for help.C．To contact the Titanic.D．To warn other ships.28．What is the main function of the last paragraph of this passage?A．It shows how unlucky the Titanic was.B．It describes how the Titanic sank.C．It indicates that the people on the California were careless.D．It lists how many people died in the disaster.29．How many ships are mentioned in the passage?A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four.30．From the passage we know that .A. the rockets were fired from the mystery shipB．Cyril Evans went to bed earlier than usual that nightC．the Titanic started sinking at dawn the next dayD．the Titanic sent out many telegrams that nightBCritical thinking is an important skill that can increase students’ ability to learn in any situation. This can be applied to traditional education, online education, or directly in a career related role. Many teachers find it such a valuable skill that they give their students a critical thinking question every day. Developing this ability can mean the difference be tween ―just passing a course‖ and ―understanding the material well enough‖ so that what students learn from it will follow them throughout their life.Some characteristics of a critical thinker that teacher should encourage are;-asking questions as a reaction to something read or discussed;-determining the ―deeper meaning‖ of particular passage or topic;-providing input and opinions to topics as a direct result of analysis and research; and-reasoning in an effort to develop an argument of your own opinion.It is important for a student to understand more than definition（定义）One way to truly understand an idea is to have hands-on practice, and to apply concepts learned in a textbook. Such ―mini-examples‖ will interest a student and improve their understanding of a topic. This is how life-long skills can be developed.Teac hers that use critical thinking practices in the classroom can ―go above and beyond‖ by asking questions that promote a greater comprehension of the material. Instructors should be able to challenge students and create an environment where they are analyzing material and gaining a better understanding. This will make the classroom move in a direction for learning. It can also help students to stay interested in the course material, as they always have a new concept to consider.At the same time, students benefit greatly from developing critical thinking skills. When learned early on, these skills can be used throughout their college education. Students can understand how to consider a topic, analyse it, and discuss it from different points of view. These are skills that will benefit them when they are part of the workforce as well.31．Critical thinking can best be described as .A．a system to improve people’s memoryB．a method to expand people’s knowledgeC．a way to increase people’s ability to understandD．a process to make people more critical of others32．The under lined word ―it‖ in Paragraph 1 refers to .A．the ability B．the difference C．the course D．the material33．According to the passage, a critical thinker should .A．ask questions before reading the materialB．be able to develop their own opinionsC．predict the deeper meaning of a topicD．do more analysis and research34．The author thinks ―mini-examples‖ are useful because they .A．assist students to better remember definitionsB．give students hands-on practiceC．help to keep students interestedD．help students develop concepts35．Who are the intended reader of the passage?A．Teachers. B．Parents. C．Examines. D．Headmasters.CWe all remember seeing hitchhikers, standing by the side of the road, thumb, sticking out, waiting for a lift. But it is getting rare nowadays. What killed hitchhiking? Safety is often mentioned as a reason. Movies about murderous hitchhikers and real-life crime have put many drivers off picking up hitchhikers. That no single women picked me up on my journey to Manchester no doubt reflects the safety fear: a large, strangely dressed man is seen as dangerous.But the reason may be more complex: hitchhiking happens where people don’t have cars and transport services are poor. Plenty of people still hichhike in Poland and Romania. Perhaps the rising level of car ownership in the UK means the few people lift hitchhiking are usually considered strange. Why can’t they afford cars? Why can’t they take the coach or the train? Three-quarters of the UK population have access to a car; many of the remainder will be quite old. The potential hitchhiking population is therefore small. Yet my trip proves it’s still possible to hitchhike. The people who pickes me up were very interesting-lawyer, retired surgeon, tank commander, carpenter, man who live in an isolated farmhouse and a couple living up in the mountains. My conclusion is that only really interesting people are mad enough to pick up fat blokes in red, spotted scarves. Most just wanted to do someone a good turn; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn’t help stopping.The future of hitchhiking most likely lies with car-sharing organized over the Internet, via sites such as hitchhikers. org. But for now, you can still stick your thumb out(actually, I didn’t do much of that, preferring just to hold up my destination sign) and people-wonderful, caring, sharing, unafraid people-will stop.In the UK, with its cheap coaches and reasonable rail service, I don’t think I’ll ma ke a habit of it. But having enjoyed it so much, I’m ready now to do a big trip across Eurpe and beyond. In the 1970s a female friend of my wife’s hitchhiked to India. How wonderful it would be to have another go, though Afghanistan might be a challenge. I wish I’d got that tank commander’s mobile number.36．The author tried to hitchhike but was rejected by single women drivers because .A．they were not heading towards ManchesterB．they thought most hitchhikers were dangerousC．hitchhiking h ad been handed and they didn’t want to break the lawD．he was a strong man in strange clothes who seemed dangerous37．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A．Movies have discouraged people from hitchhikingB．Car ownership levels are lower in Romania than in the UK.C．25% of UK people don’t have access to cars.D．Increased car ownership has reduced the need for hitchhiking.38．The ―fat blokes in red, spotted scarves‖ in Paragraph 3 most likely means .A．murderous hitchhikers B．friendly and talkative hitchhikersC．typical hitchhikers D．strange hitchhikers like the author39．According to the author, future hitchhikers are more likely to .A．visit websites and find people to share cars withB．stand by roads with their thumbs sticking outC．stick out signs with their destinations written onD．wait for some kind people to pick them up40．From the last paragraph, we know that the author .A．frequently hitchhikes in BritainB．plans to hitchhike across EuropeC．thinks public transport is safer for travelD．is going to contact the tank commanderDHe says the problem with teachers is, ―What will a kid learn from someone who chose to become a teacher?‖ He reminds the other dinner guests that it’s true what they say about teachers: Those who can , do; those who can’t teach.I decide to bite my tongue instead of biting his and stop myself from reminding the other dinner guests that it’s also true what they say about lawyers—that they make money from the misfortune of others.―I mean, you’re a teacher, Taylor,‖ he says to me. ―Be honest. What do you make?‖I wish he hadn’t asked me to be honest, because now I have to teach him a lesson.You want to know what I make?I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could.I can make a C+ feel like a great achievementand an A－feel like a failure.How dare you waste my time with anything less than your very best?I make parents tremble in fear when I call them:I hope I haven’t called at a bad time,I just wanted to talk to you about something Billy said today.Billy said, ―Leave the kid alone. I still cry sometimes, don’t you?‖And it was the bravest act I have ever seen.I make parents see their children for who they are and what they can be.You want to know what I make?I make kids wonder.I make them question.I make them criticise.I make them think.I make them apologies and mean it.I make them write, write, write.And then I make them read.I teach them to solve math problemsthat they once thought impossible.I make them understand that if you have brains then you follow your heartand if someone ever tries to judge you by what you make, you teach them a lesson. Let me make this simple for you, so you know what I say is true;I make a great difference! What about you?41．What do we know about the man that the author is speaking to?A ．He is respectful to teachers.B ．He is in the author’s home.C ．He is actually a lawyer.D ．He dislikes lawyers.42．The underlined phrase ―bite my tongue‖ in Paragraph 2 is closest in mean ing to .A ．say something which is wrongB ．speak out honestly but carelesslyC ．keep silent about myselfD ．stop myself saying what I really think43．The author called Billy’s parents to .A ．let them tremble in fearB ．ask why Billy cried that dayC ．praise what Billy did that dayD ．advise them to leave Billy alone44．What is the tone of the passage?A ．Angry and proud.B ．Upset and disappointed.C ．Humourous and light-hearted.D ．Cheerful and positive.45．What’s the best title of this p assage?A ．An Argument between Two GuestsB ．What Teachers MakeC ．Requirements of a Good TeacherD ．A Dinner Conversation第二节：信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）请阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息，请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。

It has been argued by some that gifted children should be grouped in special classes, The 1 has been on the belief that in regular classes these children are held back in their intellectual (智力的) growth by 2 situation that has designed for the 3 children.There can be little doubt that 4 classes can help the gifted children to graduate earlier and take their place in life sooner. However, to take these 5 out of the regular classes may create serious problems.I observed a number of 6 children who were taken out of a special class and placed in a 7 class. In the special class, they showed little ability to use their own judgment, relying 8 on their teachers’ directions. In the regular class, having no worry about ke 〔:// unjs 〕eping up, they began to reflect 9 on many problems, some of which were not on the school program.Many are concerned that gifted children become 10 and lose interest in learning.

But now I don't think it is advisable to continue following that living style," said Pasang, a young Tibetan girl who practices Yoga everyday at a fitness club in the eastern suburbs of Lhasa city.Today, the conception to live in a healthy way has become more popular in Tibet's general public. When the night falls, crowds of aged citizens dancing "Guozhuang," a traditional Tibetan group dance, to vigorous folk music can be seen in many residential communities. Among them, Pasang's mother Tseden Wangmo, 63, is undoubtedly one of the enthusiasts in such an outdoor team activity: "I like dancing Guozhuang very much, for it can make my body strong, bring me good mood and carry forward Tibetan ethnic culture as well."Different from their elder generations, a swarm of teenagers play skateboard or roller-skating shuttle among groups of strollers on the squares in front of the Potala Palace and Norbulingka, the Dalai Lama's permanent residence.The stylish dress, colored hairs, an earring on a single ear or an obscure tattoo -- all these signals have highlighted Tibet's younger generation's personality and their view on fashion.Lhakpa Tashi, 16, will become a high-school student in the second half year. This adolescent is a typical fan at various kinds of modern novelties, such as surfing the net, online shopping and foreign Rap music.1.Which activity is not mentioned in the passage?.A. shoppingB. dancing “Guozhuang”C. playing skateboardD. singing2.Which of the following phrase has the same meaning as the underlined phrase “mingled with”?A. along withB. mixed withC. together withD. connected with3.After reading the whole passage, do you think which of the following is NOT TRUE?A.

The passage does not tell usD.

He took the initiative after the Japanese carmaker recalled 75,552 of the SUVs in China last month to fix gas pedals that may stick."I heard the situation in the US is pretty bad for Toyota," Hu said. "The recall has impacted us as well."Toyota, which grew more slowly than competitors in China in 2009, will likely lose more market share and see a decline in local profit margin this year, analysts say. The carmaker has relied on a reputation for quality and safety to sell high margin, mid- to large-size models even as the world's biggest auto market shifts to cheaper, smaller cars, encouraged by government incentives.With Toyota's brand damaged by global recalls of millions of vehicles, profit margins for its SUVs and Camry and Crown sedans may shrink, said Ashvin Chotai, London-based managing director of Intelligence Automotive Asia Ltd, an industry consultant."With this recall saga, Toyota's premium pricing power in China is gone," Chotai said. "Toyota's cars don't have enough good value for money."Toyota has lost $24.5 billion in market capitalization this year as it recalled over 8 million cars globally to fix defects linked to unintended acceleration. The company faces at least 118 class actions in the US and at least 36 individual lawsuits claiming deaths and injuries caused by sudden acceleration of Toyota or Lexus vehicles.Toyota President Akio Toyoda flew directly to Beijing on March 2 to apologize for the vehicle defects, after attending US Congressional hearings about the recalls in Washington. He skipped Europe's Geneva auto show, underscoring the growing importance of the Chinese market. Toyota rose for a fifth straight day in Tokyo, advancing 0.9 percent to 3,580 yen as of 9:44 am local time. The carmaker's shares have fallen 7.7 percent this year.The company's February China sales rose 30 percent to 45,400 vehicles, underperforming the overall passenger-car.1.According to the passage, why did Toyota carmaker recall their cars in China last month? _____________A. Because it faced law suits in the USB. Because there were problems with the cars.C. Because of the importance of the Chinese marketD. Because the customers are not satisfied with the charging of a 5,000 Yuan premium.2.What does the underlined phrase“take the initiative” mean?A. took the adviceB. changed his mindC. took the actionD. made the decision3.Why did Toyota president Akio Toyota skip Europe’s Geneva auto show?A. Because he did not think it importantB. Because he was not satisfied with the hearing in the USC. Because he attached importance to the Chinese MarketD. Because he needed to make an apology to Chinese4.After the global recalls of millions vehicles, Toyota will be impacted in the following aspects, EXCEPT_________.A. Its brand will be damagedB. Its profit margins will shrinkC. It will have to face law suitsD.

Somesuggested solutions to these problems include a reduction in the use of private cars and an increasein the practice of car-pooling, where one car is shared by several workmates or friends. In addition,the government could improve the public transport system in order to make it more convenient forpeople. The government should also encourage cycling by building more green lanes. This willhelp save money, time and energy as well as improve the environment.Version 2The problems of traffic jams and air pollution have aroused increasingattention recently.Some of the possible solutions to these problems are as follows. First, car owners could share theircars with their friends and workmates, thus reducing the use of private cars. S econd, thegovernment could make it more convenient for its citizens to use public transportby improvingthe public transport system and encourage cycling by building more green lanes. By taking theabove measures, we could surely save money, time and energy as well as improve t heenvironment.第二节任务型写作Version 1In his speech Li Hua spoke of an overseas Chinese student who couldn’t find a job becauseof his dishonesty. The story shows us that honesty really is the best policy.After reading this speech, I felt really sorry for the student who had thrown away his years ofhard work, great academic achievements and a promising future just for some short-term benefits.Now, he knows better than anyone that dishonesty costs dearly.My classmate Wang Tao once made a similar mistake. During a math quiz, he was havingtrouble working out a problem. When the teacher looked away, he peeked and copied the answerfrom his classmate. He was glad that he had a high mark in the quiz. But when he came across asimilar question in the final exam, he didn’t know how to solve it and eventually failed the test.While dishonesty helped him in the short term during the quiz, it hurt him in the long termbecause he didn’t revise that typeof problem for the final exam. I shall always remember thislesson and be an honest person.Version 2Today I read an instructive speech, in which the speaker argues honesty is the best policy bytelling the story of an overseas Chinese student who couldn’t find a job because of his dishonesty.After reading this speech, I felt really sorry for the student who had ruined his own promisingfuture just for some short-term benefits. On the other hand, I also thought it was correct to punishsomeone who had been dishonest.I once read another story about dishonesty. In that story the author found himself alone in hisheadmaster’s office, where he accidentally found the writing contest paper. He was going to takepart in the competition and so couldn’t resist the temptation to read it. As he prepared wellbeforehand, he won the first prize in the contest. But instead of feeling happy and proud, he feltguilty. This feeling started the moment he decided to read the paper and it followed him all hislife.From these stories, I really learned the lesson that honesty is the best policy. In life we areoften tempted to be dishonest, but for a happy and guilt-free life we know what the best choice is.2011广州市普通高中毕业班综合测试-英语（一模）深度点评完形填空本次完形填空难度较大，原因在于内容比较抽象，理解需要一定时间。
