2020年贵阳一中新世界国际学校高三英语月考试卷及参考答案
2020年贵阳一中新世界国际学校高三英语月考试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AMy mother and her best friend Martha were in their mid-80s when they saw each other for the last time.They had been friends since they were 18, both of them students atWesleyanCollegeinMacon,Georgia. My mother was the dreamy one, who loved to read and dream herself as an actress. Martha, however, was more practical. I’m not sure what they had in common except that they trusted each other, helped each other, and stayed in touch even when life separated them.Martha spent most of her adulthood inAtlanta, where she raised three kids. My mother, meanwhile, raised eight children, and moved many times during her financially and emotionally troubled marriage, which included several months living with her family inseedymotels.I sensed my mother hid her troubles from most people, but not from Martha, and I knew from my mother that Martha carried her own sorrows. Their willingness to share sorrow without judgment was part of what bond them.The best friendships can also withstand (抵挡) periods without communication. They didn’t communicate a lot — this was before the ease of emails and texts and yet I knew they were always in each other’s minds.One day in 2008, 1 drove my mother to Martha’s house for their final visit. The moment my mother hobbled (蹒跚) into Martha’s house, they threw their arms around each other and went to sit out in the garden, laughing until they were dizzy. I snapped a photo, and spotted something joyous, young and free on my mom, which existed only in the presence of her best friend.Two years later, my mother died. Of all the people I had to tell, Martha was the hardest because I felt it erased her past. After that, we lost touch. But I still think of her and how that friendship strengthened my mother.1. What does the underlined word “seedy” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. largeB. dirtyC. urbanD. bright2. The author’s mother and Martha had a lasting friendship partly because they________.A. were willing to shareB. were constantly in touchC. had much in commonD. had a likeness in personality3. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To tell the importance of friendship.B. To express his gratitude to his mother.C. To share his standard of choosing a friend.D. To praise the friendship between Martha and his mother.BJules Verne was born on 8 February1828 inthe French city of Nantes. From an early age, he had a fascination with exploration and discovery. When he was six, his teacher, Madame Sambin, told him stories about her husband, who disappeared while traveling the world on a ship 30 years before. She told her class that he was like Robinson Crusoe, a fictional castaway who lived on a desert island. Verne would later write stories about similar characters.In 1847, Verne was sent by his family to study law at a university in Paris, but he preferred to write novels, poems and plays. After graduating, he realized he wanted to write adventure stories based on science and technology.Thishad never been done before, but Verne was sure that it would be a success. His first story, Five Weeks in a Balloon, was published in September 1862. His career lasted for more than 40 years, during which time he wrote more than 60 gripping stories.To begin with, Verne wrote positive and optimistic books. Many of these were to be his most popular creations. Although some included fantastical elements, they were usually based in scientific fact, making them believable. These happy stories weren’t to last. As he got older, Verne became less confident in the idea that science and technology were always good for the planet. His books started to include more scientists who used technology for their own-sometimes evil - purposes. Verne died on 24 March 1905, but new books continued to be published until 1919. These stories were based on ideas Verne had written about while he was still alive, but featured new characters and plots created by his son, Michel.In the 20th century, his books were translated into more than 140 languages and several successful film versions were released. His creations have been recognized as an inspiration for many scientists and inventors. Many of the futuristic ideas from his most popular books have since come true.4. What is the purpose of Paragraph 1?A To show Verne’s discovery.B. To offer the background information of Verne.C. To tell of the adventure of Sambin’s husband.D. To explain how Verne began his writing career.5. What does the underlined word “This” refer to in Paragraph 2:A. Writing novels, poems and plays.B. Studying law.C. Graduating from university.D. Wring adventure stories.6. What can be learned about Verne’s late works?A. They covered happy elements.B. They were unbelievable stories.C. They revealed Verne’s doubt on science.D. They were partly written by Berne’s son.7. Which of the following best describes Verne?A. Talented and productive.B. Popular and caring.C. Optimistic and generous.D. Friendly and honest.CEveryone can be angry. But if you take the time to actually examine your anger instead of just “feeling” angry, you’ll have a better understanding of yourself. Knowing why you feel so angry can provide you with some surprising answers. These answers can enable you to suddenly grow spiritually and mentally.I can give you a personal example. I went to a meeting once and I was verbally attacked over an application I supported at my workplace. Various people went on and on about how terrible this system was and that it never worked. That didn’t bother me that much. I was used to that but one of the comments that was said was, “Your job is pointless.” This really upset meand at the time, I was ly furious(发怒地) with that comment.I was so angry and upset that they would treat me that way. Once I took the time to think about what was really making me so mad. I learned a lot. I realized that the comment was more truethan I wanted to admit. In the big scheme of things, my job was pointless. It wasn’t what I really wanted to be doing with my life and this was what frustrated me the most. Here I was pouring part of my heart and soul into a job I didn’t even really want to do. I was using it as a crutch(拐杖) because I didn’t have the confidence in myself to take the scary road towards what I really wanted to do. As soon as I realized that, a lot of my anger just melted away. I also realized that I needed to start focusing on what I really wanted to do.I now consider this incident as a great gift It got me back on track to moving in the direction I wanted to go with my life. I probably wouldn’t be where I am today if I hadn’t taken the time to figure out why I was really so angry.8. What made the author angry at the meeting?A. The system of the company was terrible.B. Someone said his job is insignificant.C. The policy of the company didn’t work.D. The application he supported was of no effect.9. What brought down the anger of the author?A. The apology someone made at the meeting.B. The crutch he used to take the scary road.C. His awareness of the fact that the comment was true.D. The courage he had to overcome the challenges.10. Why did the author consider the incident as a gift?A. It brought him back on track to the goal.B. It helped him get promoted to a higher position.C. It helped him change his character since then.D. It provided him with confidence in his career.11. What can be the best title of the passage?A. How to Cope with Verbal Attack in a CompanyB. Avoid Being Pointless at WorkC. Anger Is Harmful to HealthD. Understanding Yourself Better Through AngerDFor centuries , tea has been used for far more than quenching thirst. Around the world people drink it to relax, reinvigorate and relieve, and it's something we need now more than ever.Even in the United States, a long coffee-dominated country, tea drinking is growing in popularity, with the country consuming 0.4 kilograms (14 ounces) of tea leaves per person a year compared with 0. 36 kilograms(12. 7 ounces) in 2007 according to the United Nations, as people switch away from soda，milk and fruit drinks.Scientists are beginning to look into just how tea might affect mood and cognition. Specifically, they're investigating whether its relaxing and refreshing effects are a direct biological outcome of the compounds in tea or whetherthey come from the context in which the drink is consumed—preparing your tea, choosing your favoritecup and sitting down for a brief break from the world. Or both.Drinking green tea has been found to improve brain function in healthy people, said Stefan Borgward, chair and director of the department of psychiatry and psychotherapy at the University of Lubeck, Germany.In a 2014 study, he gave one or two cups of green tea to 12 healthy volunteers and imaged their brains to analyze changes in connectivity inside certain brain regions.“We noticed an increased connectivity in regions of the brain associated with working memory,” he said via email.And a 2017 review of more than 100 studies he coauthored found that green tea can impact the brain in three ways: It can influence psychopathological state such as reducing anxiety; cognition by benefiting memory and attention; and brain function, specifically memory.That review concluded that "it would be desirable" for more Westerners to consume at least 100 milliliters(3.3 fluid ounces) of green tea each day “to protect neurocognitive function.”However, Borgward, cautioned that the effects aren't large, and the evidence is mainly provided by small-scale studies.12. How does the author introduce the tendency of drinking in the U.S.?A. By showing examples.B. By explaining reasons.C. By making a comparison.D. By checking existing facts.13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Scientists are looking into why tea makes people relaxed and refreshed.B. The context in which the drink is consumed is very important.C. People's relaxation is the direct biological outcome of the ingredients in tea.D. Preparing tea, choosing a cup and sitting down for a brief rest is amazing.14. What can we conclude from Stefan's research?A. Tea is a cure for a neurocognitive disease.B. Green tea is particularly beneficial to our memory.C. Drinking tea every day can prevent us from getting ill.D. Westerners drink less than 100 milliliters of green tea.15. What is the researcher'sattitude towards the finding?A. SupportiveB. Doubtful.C. Unclear.D. Objective.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The Fusses were at the risk of joining the millions of Americans who have 37 their homes in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely 38 —$7,000, a legacy(遗产) from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, who died in an accident. “Itreally made a difference when we were meeting difficulty.” says Dave.But the Fusses weren’t the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to 39 unexpected legacy from the Hatches.

Agreement on this important step in ongoing cooperation between the two sides was reached by media representatives attending a media forum on September 19 in Abuja, Nigeria.The agreement es in the wake of increasing attention being paid by the international munity on Africa's deepening relationship with China. "This presents an important opportunity for media in China, Nigeria and other African countries.

It formedpart of the "Experience China" program, which aims to increase cultural exchanges and mutual understanding between China and other parts of the world.In the past, due to poor munication facilities, China and African countries could only learn about each other through third parties, in particular Western media, which may have given rise to and perpetuated misunderstandings."China is still not a constant feature or subject on the front page and prime time in the news media in Nigeria unless there are disasters and alleged human rights abuses to be reported," said Martins Oloja, Editor of The Guardian.Major Western media continue to promote a Cold War mentality and view Sino-African ties through the lens of geopolitics, framing everything as petition between East and West, Chinese and Nigerian media professionals said at the forum. Some Western media outlets accuse China of ignoring mutually beneficial solutions or sustainable development of African people, while robbing the continent of its natural resources. "Nigerians cannot expect Aljazeera or BBC to report on Africa, and indeed Nigeria and China relations, the way we want," said Oloja.Mutually objective coverage will generate more cooperation and better understanding between China and Nigeria, said Li Xiaohua, a representative from China. , a leading multi-language website in China.56.

What is the attitude of the major western media towards the Sino-African relationship?A. They think highly of it.B. They report it as it is.C. They view it through the angle of geopolitics.D. They view it as a petition between two countries.60. What is the best title for this passage?A. Having a bigger sayB. A Media Forum between China and NigeriaC. Helping the African MediaD. Improving our report in AfricaBOne of my China Dialogue colleagues in Beijing recently bought a Philips energy-saving light bulb to replace a standard one．He was happy with his choice．It may have cost 30 yuan （just under US$4．50） - ten times the price of a filament （灯丝） bulb - but he wanted to save energy as part of his low-carbon lifestyle．And according to the shopkeeper, he would save, in the long run, much more than the 30 yuan he was spending．Yet only one month later, his expensive light bulb blew up, before he had saved even a small part of the purchase price．Will he stick to his high-cost, low-carbon lifestyle?China's environmental organizations have started to advocate low-carbon lifestyles and the decrease of carbon footprints to help fight against climate change．But they have overlooked one fact: in China, low-carbon living es at a high cost．It means buying energy-saving bulbs and appliances, and environmentally friendly building materials and daily goods．Cost can no longer be the only standardfor purchases．An energy-saving and environmentally friendly product is more expensive than a standard alternative - whether it's a simple light bulb or the house it shines．For average consumers, even buying an ordinary bulb is a huge burden．How can we persuade ordinary people to choose an energy-saving residence? This is not a trend they can afford to follow; perhaps this fashion is only for the rich．） emissions．Their Most consumers today do not cause huge carbon dioxide （CO2responsibility lies not in choosing a low-carbon lifestyle today, but in avoiding a high-carbon life in the future．The principle of "mon but differentiated responsibility" - a basis of sustainable development - can be applied here as well．In China, low-carbon living still is resisted by a lack of social infrastructure （基础设施）. Even if your salary allows you to make that choice, nobody is there to help you acplish it．Consider energy-saving homes. You need to find out whether or not the developer has used natural materials wherever possible; how effective the insulation（绝缘物、隔热物） is; and what the green credentials of installed equipment are．You can read up a little, but you'll still be lucky to avoid being puzzled by the developers' marketing．Many so-called energy-saving buildings are nothing of the sort, and some are even more energy-hungry than the average home - as Li Taige warned in his article "Energy-efficient buildings? Not always", on China Dialogue last August．61. What may probably be the best title of this passage?A. To purchase a cheap bulb - your wise alternative．B. To choose an energy-saving residence - a must of your lifeC. To learn a low-carbon lifestyle - each citizen's responsibilityD. To learn a low-carbon lifestyle - a promising but difficult purpose62. Why does the writer say this fashion is only for the rich in the fourth paragraph?A. Because the cost is a very important standard for purchases.B. Because buying an ordinary bulb is very expensive.C. Because energy-saving products are more expensive than the mon alternatives.D. Because rich people like to follow this trend.63. What does the writer think of energy-saving homes?A. Most of them are environmentally friendly.B. They are musts of low-carbon lifestyle of Chinese.C. They are huge burdens for Chinese people.D.

What is the writer's attitude towards the low-carbon lifestyle?A. informative and entertainingB. supportive but cautiousC. negative but wiseD. positive and activeCYou feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving. If you give and give without making time to fill your own needs, the n it’s likely you will burn out, or feel upset .When you take and take without giving anythingback ,you never feel fulfilled, so you are always searching for ways to fill the void in your life.The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your values .I break values up into two groups which I call being and having values. Your being values are the character traits of the ideal person you would like to be. I suggest to my clients that they choose three being values that they are willing to make a mitment to live by. An example of some being values are: kind, loving, generous, inspirational, peaceful, wise and even powerful. By acting on these values you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model. Mastering being these character traits bees your life purpose.Your having values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be panionship, achievement, support, being valued or financial security. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life.When you make a mitment to live by your being values, it bees easier to make conscious choices rather than reactionary ones. If your usual pattern is to talk about your problems, you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calmperson might go for a walk, meditate, or set a time limit before responding. If your usual pattern is to worry, you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. In other words, you would act like the person you choose to be—this is the key to personal power.When you choose to act on your values, you not only feel good about yourself, you reinforce your chosen beliefs. Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world, and in turn the way other people think of you.66. The main purpose of this passage is to ___________.A．persuade the readers to make a mitmentB．inform the readers how to be truly happyC．explain to the readers what personal values areD．instruct the readers how to make wise choices67. According to the text, living by your being values ,you would ___________.A．gain a lot of power B．fill your own needsC．seek all human virtues D．form positive personality68. The underlined word “void” in Paragraph 1 means___________.A．a feeling of emptiness B．an absence of one’s mindC．a break of continuity D．a state of confusion69. Which of the following does not belong to “your having values”?A. your success in the petitionB. the help from your friendsC. your own peaceful mindD. the friendship70. What can be inferred from the text?A．Having values are better than being values.B．The way other people think of you decides who you are.C． A calm person does not choose to plain.D．A responsible person does not care about financial security.PART Ⅳ WRITING (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blankets by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Like our body, our memory needs regular exercise to be in good condition. Like the sportsman who must train to allow the body to respond to difficult times, the memory needs its own special training in order to stay in “shape” and improve.There are many factors that can cause poor memory like insomnia (失眠), depression and alcohol. However, there are simple ways which you can follow to keep your memory in shape and actually help you to improve your memory’s condition and performance.Never stop learning. Look for topics that interest you and really get involved in learning new information about them. Reading and attending lectures or programsare sources of continuous education of your brain with beneficial results to your memory.Develop your social and family relationships. The more social you are, the better it is for your brain. Studies have shown that the brain and heart have a lot to gain from good family and social relationships.Exercise your mind with games. The more you use your brain, the more you help your memory stay in shape. There are many games that can make you an intelligent person as well as entertain you such as chess, puzzles and board games.Exercise physically can improve your memory. This type of exercise improves the circulatory （血液循环的） system. Even the simple but regular daily exercise such as fast walking can improve the heart and oxygenation（供氧） of the brain. The benefits of exercise affect positively many body systems, as well as our memory and other cognitive（认知的） capabilities.Eat more fruit and vegetables. What we eat every day affects the performance and long-term condition of our memory. Fruit and vegetables are an excellent source of antioxidants（抗氧化剂） and vitamins that can help and benefit the nervous system. So our memory is like a sportsman. The more we practice our brains and memory, the better their performance will be.Title: How to improve memorySection B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.The tasty cream-filled golden sponge(海绵) cakes have been an American favorite for decades. These are just a few of the sugary treats made by the beloved Hostessbrand. But after more than 80 years, Americans have to say goodbye to these iconic (标志性的) desserts. Early last week, Hostess announced it is going out of business. "Many people have worked unbelievably long and hard to keep this from happening," said Hostess CEO Gregory F. Rayburn. "Hostess Brand has no other alternative than to begin the process of getting down and preparing for the sale of our iconic brands." Along with Twinkles (奶油蛋糕) and Wonder Bread, cupcakes and other sugary treats may disappear from the shelves.In the past decade, Hostess has experienced difficulties with its management and high labor costs. The pany had money troubles in the past, but this time there was no way to recover. Along with the loss of sugary treats es the loss of nearly 20,000 jobs. Hostess fans hope that another pany will buy out the Hostess.The downfall of Hostess is due not just to the pany's financial problems, but also to a changing America. Our country's tastes and lifestyles are not the same as they were eighty years ago. Americans have bee more health-conscious, and they are demanding more healthful food products. As a manufacturer of high-calorie products, Hostess does not fit into this new way of life.To make matters worse for Hostess, Americans do not eat as much bread as they once did. "More and more people are choosing one-dish meals," said Harry Balzar. "The tradition of bread as a side dish is going out." Americans are finding alternatives to their morning toast too. Instead they’re choosing quick snacks like yogurt and energy bars.Will Twinkles bee an image of a bygone(过去的) America? Hostess fans hope that it will secure its spot on supermarket shelves for years to e. We can only wait. And maybe eat fruit for dessert instead.81. What caused Hostess to be in trouble in the last 10 years? (no more than 7 words) _____________________________________________________________________82. Can you list three disappearing sugary desserts by Hostess? (no more than 5 words) _____________________________________________________________________83. What makes Hostess's situation more severe?

There, a school teacher asked the youth his name. “J.C” he replied. She taught he had said “Jesse”, and he had a new name.Owens ran his first race at age 13. After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part-time so as to pay for his education. As a second –year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event . He did try, and the results are in the record book.The stage was set for Owens’ victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African American winners.“It was all right with me, ”he said years later. “I didn’t go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone call from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.Owens’ Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles, and dogs.“Sure, it bothered me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”In time, however, his gold medals changed his life. “They have kept me alive over the years,” he once said, “Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard. ”56. Owens got his other name “Jesse” when ________.A. he went to Ohio State UniversityB. his teacher made fun of himC. his teacher took “J. C.” for “Jesse”D. he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet57. In the Big Ten meet, Owens _______.A. hurt himself in the backB. succeeded in setting many recordsC. tried every sports event but failedD. had to give up some events58. We can infer form the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that timebecause_______.A. he was not of the right raceB. he was the son of a poor farmerC. he didn’t shake hands with HitlerD. he didn’t talk to the US president on the phone59. When Owens says “They have kept me alive over the years,” he means thatmedals_____A. have been changed for money to help him live onB. have made him famous in the USC. have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in lifeD. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs60. Which of the following is a suitable title for the test?A. Jesse Owens, a Great American AthleteB. Golden Moment, a Life-time StruggleC. Making a Living as a SportsmanD. How to Be a Successful AthleteBA “dark horse” is one that shows unexpected racing speed and comes in first, even though the experts said he had little chance of winning.In politics, an unknown candidate (候选人)for office who wins a nomination (提名) or election is called a “dark horse”.British Prime Minister Benjamin Disrael is believed to have been the first to use the phrase. In his novel, “The Young Duke” published in1831. Disrael described a horse race and told how the two top choices fell behind, while “a dark horse” which had never been thought of rushing past the grandstand in a sweeping triumph.From racing to politics was a short step. As a political phrase, “dark horse ” appeared for the first time in the national Democratic Party congress of 1844. The “dark horse ” was James Knox Polk who became the 11th President of the United States.Polk had been the leader of the House of Representatives from 1835 to 1839. He had also been Governor of the state of Tennessee. But as a national leader he was considered a political nobody.Nevertheless, he surprisingly won the Democratic nomination and was elected President.Martin Van Buren of New York, a former President, seemed sure of getting the nomination. But he opposed making the territory (领土) of Texas part of the United States as another state. He was against it because there was slavery in Texas. Van Buren did not want another slave state in the Union. As a result, he lost support among those Democrats who supported slavery.At the 1884 congress, Van Buren could not get enough votes to win the nomination. The congress got into trouble. Therefore, the Democratic leaders decided that the only wise thing would be to run a “dark horse”, a man who could unite the party.And so, one of the party leaders, George Bancroft, proposed the name of James Knox Polk. He won, and the party united behind him, And he defeated his opponent, Henry Clay ofthe Wing Party.After the 1844 congress, the “dark horse ”candidates became an established fact of national political life.One historian said, “The invention of the dark horse was in itself a remarkable product of our professional politics.” This made it possible for party leaders to choose candidates who were not tied to certain ideas. Therefore, they represented nothing and had developed few enemies.61. The term “dark horse ” is often used to refer to _______.A. a horse that can be in the lead all the timeB. a horse that can attracts attention for its dark colorC. a person that people think the first to succeedD. a person who achieves some goal unexpectedly62. The author introduced the novel “The Young Duke” with the intention that_____.A. he would come to tell us about a “dark horse” in politics.B. he would point out how the nobleman appreciated horse racingC. he would tell us how the dark horse rushed past the two top horsesD. he would describe the fierce competition in the party63. The failure of Martin Van Buren in the nomination lay in the fact that_______.A. he opposed the territory of Texas becoming a part of the United StatesB. he had already been president of the United States for yearsC. he couldn’t get support from the Democrats who would keep slaveryD. he had made few achievements during his presidency64. According to the author, Polk’s being nominated and elected President is consideredentirely_______ .A. a good choiceB. a lucky chanceC. a difficult processD. an expected resultCThe atmosphere and oceans are not the only parts of the environment being damaged. Rain forests are being quickly destroyed as well, and their survival is questionable. E.O. Wilson, a biologist at Harvard, called the depletion(枯竭) of rain forest areas “the greatest extinction since the end of the age of dinosaurs”.Unlike some environmental issues, rain forest depletion has fortunately received significant public and media attention. Despite the opposition to the cutting down of rain forests, the problem continues. Every year, Brazil chops down an area of forest the size of the state of Nebraska. In addition to the Amazon’s rain forests, many other forests are being cut down as well. In Indonesia, Zaire, Papua-new Geinea, Malaysia, Burma, the Philippines, Peru, Colombia, Bolivia, and Venezuela, rain forests that were once great have been lost.According to some estimates, 50 million acres of rain forests are cut down every year.The United Nations says the figure is closer to 17 million acres. The World Wildlife Fund says every minute, 25 to 50 acres are cut or burned to the ground.The world’s growing population has been a primary reason of rain forest destruction. More people need land to live on and wood products to consume. Limiting population growth may be the first in a series of steps that would limit the destruction of the rain forests.65．In the opinion of the author, _______ are being destroyed terribly at present.A. the rain forestsB. the oceansC. the atmosphereD. all the above66. Why did Wilson regard “the greatest extinction since the end of the age of dinosaurs” tobe the depletion of rain forest areas?A. The rain forests’ survival is questionable.B. The writer did not give explanation in detail.C. Many wild animals and beasts will extinct as a result of the depletion of rain forests.D. It will become warmer and warmer with the depletion of rain forests.67. The word “chop down ” in the second paragraph means _______.A. cut downB. clearC. make room forD. destroy68. Why did the depletion of rain forests result from the world’s growing population?a.People liked cutting down large amounts of rain forests to make all kinds offurniture.b. People need more land to live on.c. People must make more room to build all kinds of buildings to live in .d. People need more wooden products to use.A. a and cB. a and bC. b and dD. c and d69. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. The author thought the oceans’ survival is questionable.B. Luckily people and mass media all paid special attention to the depletion of rainforestsC. People have stopped cutting down rain forests because of the opposition of mostpeople .D. The United Nations says about 50 million acres of rain forests are cut down everyyear.DWeekly WatchAnti-Japanese War marked nationwideChinese people throughout the country held activities on September 18 in remembrance of the outbreak of the Anti- Japanese War (1937-1945).For three minutes, loud air-defense sirens simultaneously sounded at 21:18 on the night of September 18 in the cities of Harbin, Changchun and Shenyang in northeastern China.A symposium was held in Nanjing, where Japanese troops killed 300,000 soldiers and civilians during the Nanjing Massacre in December 1937.Rainstorm kills 19Rainstorm hit Sichuan Province recently, leaving 19 people dead and 11 missing. The storms, which have affected 22 cities and counties, have brought rainfall ranging from 50mmto 250mm.Traffic and power supplies were shut off in some affected areas, forcing local factories, shops and schools to close. A number of roads, farmlands, bridges, storage and irrigation facilities were damaged by the storm.A group of U.S. police officers visited Guizhou Province on September 17 and exchanged views with local police officers on anti-drug addiction work.The delegation visited an anti-drug addiction center under the Guiyang City Police Bureau, and talked with people who voluntarily came to the center to overcome their addictions.Sheriff Harry Lee, head of the delegation , said China has had some experiences that the United States can learn from in assisting and educating people who want to stop using drugs.70.

Chinese people will never forget what Japanese troops did to them at that time.D. The Anti-Japanese War lasted 10 years.71. The second piece of news mainly tells us that_______.A.

To stay healthy , we must eat more fruits and vegetables and sweet potatoes are a great source of beta carotene(胡萝卜素)and other carotenoids. According to a study of the diets of almost 90,000 nurses, eating about one cup a day of fruits and vegetables rich in carotenoids (which the body turns into vitamin A) can cut you risk of stoke in half and reduce your risk of heart disease by 22 percent. Other research suggests beta carotene protects against breast, lung and stomach cancers.Beta carotene is the most famous member of the carotenoids family. In fact, a medium-sized sweet potato contains nearly 12mg of beta carotene(anti-aging experts usually suggest 6 to 11 mg per day). Sweet potatoes are also a low-fat source of vitamin E. Research has linked high E diets with a lower risk of heart disease. This vitamin pill in an orange jacket also packs a vitamin C punch--- it has more C than apricots (a kind of fruit). Research suggests that vitamin C protects against ailments ranging from cataracts (an eye disease) to cancer. In addition, a UCLA(University of California, Los Angeles) study linked high vitamin C dietswith a longer life . Recent studies have showed that antioxidant vitamins C, E and beta carotene fight a fierce battle against free radicals(自由基)，which cause cell damage and lead to various illness. Therefore, to keep fit, eat more sweet potatoes.73. According to the test, there exists a lot of _______ in sweet potatoes.A. fiber, beta carotene, other carotenoids, vitamin E and C.B. beta carotene, other carotenoids, fiber, vitamin A and EC. vitamin A, beta carotene, fiber, vitamin E and CD. beta carotene, other carotenoids, vitamin A and E74.
