I remember it like it was yesterday though. We were just eating breakfast when we received a phone call. We received phone calls all the time, so it was nothing new to me. However, this phone call was an important one. I soon heard and saw my mother crying on the couch(沙发)with my father comforting her. My brother, sister, and I didn’t know what had happened, as they had not told us yet. Later, I was told that my grandfather was in the hospital because he had a heart attack. I did not know what to think. I had never heard of a heart attack, but I figured (认为) that it must be serious if he was in the hospital.My grandfather and grandmother lived far away from us and we did not get to see them often. It was a long trip. My mother rushed to the hospital while my father stayed at home with my brother, sister and me.I do not think my young sister was really understanding it all yet. My mother returned a little later with bad news. My grandfather had died before she got there. I was speechless. I had loved my grandfather greatly. He was the one who taught me how to fish and enjoy the outdoors.36. W hy didn’t the morning phone call surprise the autho r?A. Because he/she was only 6 years old.B. Because the phone call was a case as usual.C. Because he/she was just eating breakfast.D. Because it was a normal Saturday morning.37. T he author’s mother began to cry .A. after the father comforted her on the couchB. before she received the important phone callC. when she knew her father was in the hospitalD. as her children didn’t understand what had happened38. T he author’s family seldom got to see the grandparents because .A. they had no spare timeB. the old couple lived too far awayC. the old couple were often in hospitalD. they didn’t have a private car39. W e can know from the passage that .A. both the father and the mother went to the hospitalB. the author cared much about his/her grandfatherC. people with a heart attack should be in hospital at onceD. the mother was in time for having a word with her father40. I t can be inferred from the passage that .A. the author’s family was poor in 2000B. the author’s father wasn’t sad at allC. the author’s sister knew a heat attack was a serious diseaseD. there were three children in the author’s familyBLi Denghai, with his muddy boots and tanned(晒黑的) face, may not look like he is one of China’s famous agricultural pioneers. But the 61-year-old man from Shandong Province has made scientific breakthroughs(突破), which made great contributions to China’s food security(安全). His main work has been in achieving the higher output of corn production.Li, who holds the world record for the highest output of summer corn, once says, “Corn has a life; it sings and dances. If you listen clearly, it can speak to you.” He started his research in 1969 when he was 20 and just dropped out of a high school. He then read an article which pointed that corn output per mu in the USA was six times higher than that in China. He was shocked and set out to work on just a small piece of land round the clock to see if he could increase the output. He often went to the field with a flashlight late at night, if he had been away during the day. By careful nurturing (照料) he managed to double the output.Li Denghai was awarded the “China Award for Significant Contr ibution to the Maize (玉米) Industry” in 2005, and the same year the company named after his own name came into the market on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Li, however, is never happier than when he is in the middle of his cornfields. “I can forget my tiredness when talk to my corns,” he says.41. W hen Li Denghai began the study of corn,.A. he just graduated from an ordinary high schoolB. he was shocked that the corn output in China was so lowC. he was only in his thirtiesD. he wasn’t really f ond of his work42. I n 1960s’, if the corn output of 10 mu was 2,000kg in China, the same size field in America could produce .A. 4,000kgB. 8,000kgC. 12,000kgD. 20,000kg43. T he underlined phrase “round the clock” means.A. day and nightB. sooner or laterC. face to faceD. now and then44. F rom Mr. Li’s words in this passage, we can learn that.A. he is not good at communicating with peopleB. he is too tired to go to the corn fieldsC. he talks to his corn when feeling lonelyD. he loves his career deeply45. B y mentioning the company on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, the author means that Mr. Li.A. has become very richB. has changed into a businessmanC. has succeeded in enlarging his careerD. has been too busy to go on his corn studyCCleaning became an obsession (使人痴迷的事) with Will Palmer after he had a operation of a cornea (角膜) transplant. Before the operation, Mr. Palmer was happy to leave the housework to his wife. However, since he had a cornea transplant, he has become liking to do the dusting and washing up, and developed the good habit he didn’t have before.Mr. Palmer said, “Since having the transplant operation, my vision is almost 20/20. I can now notice every spot of dust and dirt, and can’t help but have a go at cleaning it up. For some reason seeing the grime(尘垢) gets on my nerves and I have to do something about it. It started as a joke that I must have been given the cornea of a woman. There’s a reason why men don’t clean like this and I think it’s because we just don’t see the dirt, but I see it everywhere I go.”Mr. Palmer developed corneal disease Fuchs Dystrophy six years ago. The condition caused the inner surface of the cornea — the thin layer that covers and protects the iris (虹膜) and pupil (瞳孔) that is responsible for two thirds of the eye’s vision — to slowly die. This meant that over time, the sight of Will’s right eye had dropped so much that everything appeared unclear. It was also sensitive to light. Later, Mr. Palmer got the cornea transplant.Scientific studies have suggested that up to a third of organ transplant patients have inherited changes in their personalities, preferences and skills from their donors. Researchers have proposed various theories, including the idea that memories are stored in organ tissue as well as the brain and can therefore be passed on to transplant patients.46. W ill Palmer almost lost his vision as a result of.A. an incidentB. a kind of cancerC. an eye diseaseD. the short-sight47. W hy did Will Palmer think his cornea was from a woman?A. Because he was more anxious than beforeB. Because he became obsessed with cleaningC. Because he developed a habit of fast readingD. Because he could see things more clearly48. S ome memories can be passed on to transplant patients from the donors for .A. they are sensitive to choose the bodyB. they are likely to live in the donors for everC. they are unchangeable once they came into beingD. they are stored well in organ tissue49. W hich of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Will Palmer’s vision recovered well after the operation.B. Will Palmer can see nothing except the dirt around him.C. Will Palmer develops all the same preferences as the donor.D. Will Palmer used to do housework together with his wife.50. T he passage intends to.A. warn us to protect our sightB. give an example of transplantC. introduce a new cure for eye diseaseD. offer us some news on medicineDDolphins are the second brightest creatures after humans in the world — even more clever than chimpanzees(黑猩猩). Experts say it is now time for dolphins to be treated as “non-human persons” after research showed their brains have many features connected with high intelligence. Just like us: A bottlenose dolphin shakes hands. They believe it is cruel to keep such intelligent animals in amusement parks, or to kill them for food or by accident when fishing. Some 300,000 whales and dolphins die in this way every year.A study carried out by Lori Marino, a zoologist at Emory University in Atlanta, scanned (扫描) the brains of dolphin species and compared them to the brains of humans, monkeys and chimpanzees. She said, “Many dolphin brains are l arger than our own and second in whole only to the human brain when corrected for body size.”Dolphins have long been known for their intelligence. However it had been believed that chimpanzees —who can achieve the intelligence levels of three-year-old children —were the brighter of the two.New studies suggest that in fact dolphins —especially species such as the bottlenose — are more intelligent. They have particular personalities, a strong sense of the self and can think about the future. They are al so “cultural” animals, with new types of behavior being picked up by one dolphin from another. In one piece of research, bottlenose dolphins were shown to be able to recognize themselves in a mirror and use it to observe various parts of their bodies.Dolp hins’ famous intelligence has also made its way into fiction. In Douglas Adams’s story, the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, dolphins escape from Earth after humans fail to understand their warnings that the planet is about to be destroyed.51. W hy are do lphins considered as “non-human persons”?A. Because they are highly intelligent creatures.B. Because they can shake hands like humans.C. Because they can amuse humans in parks.D. Because they are more lovely than chimpanzees.52. T he brains of dolphins are smaller than those of.A. whalesB. monkeysC. chimpanzeesD. humans53. A ccording to the research, bottlenose dolphins can .a. think about the futureb. learn from each otherc. recognize themselves in mirrorsd. help humans protect the earth betterA. a, b, dB. a, c, dC. a, b, cD. b, c, d54. W hat can we infer from the passage?A. People haven’t treated dolphins well enough.B. Whales are just as intelligent as dolphins.C. Monkeys have larger brains than chimpanzees.D. Dolphins will develop more human behaviors.55. D ouglas Adams let dolphins appear in the story to .A. draw people’s attentionB. show their intelligenceC. prove humans’ intelligenceD. express their warnings四、书面表达(共两节，满分45分)第一节阅读表达(共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分)Many international students choose large schools. But a growing number of them are attending smaller ones.Douglas Bennett, the president of Earlham College in Indiana, has written several articles aimed at helping students choose a college that best fits their needs. He says one of the important things for the international students to consider is the size of a school. He says Earlham College is small for a reason. “We’re that small because we think we educate much more e ffectively and much more powerfully because we stay small. It stretches everyone more. It draws everyone into more different kinds of activities.”Of course, there are also good arguments for attending a larger school. Many big schools are widely recognized. And in some cases that might lead to more job interviews than a degree from a lesser known college. Larger schools also have more money, which can mean more resources for education and research.In addition to size, Douglas Bennett says there are other important things to consider. For example: Which programs at the school are the strongest? Some schools have stronger programs in the sciences. Others are stronger in the liberal arts. Also, what do the school’s top students go on to do after they graduate? What kinds of activities are offered that might add to the educational experience? Are there sports teams? What about a radio station or newspaper?But Douglas Bennett says . “The most important choice you make is who you choose to be yourself. If you’re prepared to bring your best self to the college, then it matters where you go to college. On the other hand, if you choose not to prepare to work very hard, it doesn’t matter where you go.”56. W hat’s the best title of the passage? (within 8 words)57. W hich sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?A graduate from a larger school may get a job more easily than one from a school of smaller size.58. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 5 with proper words. (within 6 words)59. Which kind of school will you choose if you are an international student, a large one or a smaller one? Why? (within 20 words)60. Translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 into Chinese.第二节写作(满分30分)请根据下列要点提示写一篇关于一则交通事故的英语短文：时间：上午9点40分地点：邮局附近十字路口经过：一红色卡车闯红灯后与一白色轿车相撞结果：轿车司机受轻伤入院，卡车及司机被带往警察局处理词数：120左右。

Module2 单元能力测评第一部分阅读理解第一节阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A（2018吉林长春外国语学校高二月考）People aren't walking any more-if they can figure out a way to avoid it.I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn't in any hurry, either. I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis.It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune（免疫的），for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as a good day's walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as a sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting.When I was 45 years old I raced-and beat-a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Statue of Liberty.Such exercise today is regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrhams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise. A person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise-the most familiar and natural of all.It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flowers, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, and the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. He cannot learn in a car.The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don't dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turngreen. I say that the green of forests is the mind's best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.【1】What is the national sickness?A. Walking too much.B. Travelling too much.C. Driving cars too much.D. Climbing stairs too much.【2】What was life like when the author was young?A. People usually went around on foot.B. People often walked 25 miles a day.C. People used to climb the Statue of Liberty.D. People considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship.【3】The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove thatA. middle-aged people like getting back to natureB. walking in nature helps enrich one's mindC. people need regular exercise to keep fitD. going on foot prevents heart disease【4】What's the author's intention of writing this passage?A. To tell people to reflect more on life.B. To recommend people to give up driving.C. To advise people to do outdoor activities.D. To encourage people to return to walking.B（2017北京四中高一期中）Singapore's public transport system is one of the best in the world, so you have no problem finding your way around like a local.

It's very convenient for visitors to travel in Singapore.C（2018河北衡水中学高三一调）The Indian government may use 3D paintings as virtual speed breakers on major highways and roads, in an attempt to check speeding and careless driving, andeventually make its deadly roads a little safer. “We are trying out 3D paintings used as virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary requirements of speed breakers,” India's transport minister Nitin Gadkari tweeted.The visual illusions（幻象）are supposed to encourage drivers to slow down automatically. Earlier this month, India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways, which are considered to be a danger to safety for high-speed vehicles.India has the highest number of road accident deaths in the world. According to the World Health Organisation, over 200,000 people are killed by road accidents due to poor application of road safety laws. This is considerably higher than its official figures of 141,526for 2014.The use of visual illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American city of Philadelphia in 2008, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings.In India, cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai have already experimented with 3D zebra crossings in the last one year. In Ahmedabad for instance, two artists, mother and daughter have painted 3D crosswalks in the first few months of this year. The artists say their motto is" to increase the attention of drivers", and that the concept has been successfully tested in zones where accidents easily occur on a highway.However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India's decision does not consider the safety of a large number of walkers. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.【8】What caused the high number of road accident deaths in India?A. Speeding motorists.B. Floating 3D crossings.C.

ADenver's bus system (RTD) works best if you are based in thedowntown area. For any information, see the phone number and websitebelow. To pick up schedules or talk to an RTD employee in person you cango to the Civic Centre station or the Market Street station. The Civic Centre station is located at the south end of the 16th Street Mall (take the free bus to the south end of the line). The Market Street station is located at the 16th Street Market (take the free bus to the north end of the line). You'll be able to find all schedules for buses in the RTD system. You'll also be able to buy any pass,_etc.. All monthly passes and 10 ticket coupon (优待券) books (pay for 10 bus rides at a time) can be bought at any King Sooners store in the Denver subway area. All buses have bike holders on the front of the bus. These can be used at no extra charge, but it is your responsibility to load and unload your bike. The driver is not allowed to assist you. You can bring a bicycle on the light rail trains during off peak hours (非高峰时间)—it doesn't cost extra. They just ask that you board at the back of the train. All buses are wheelchair accessible.The trains go from 30th & Downing streets to Santa Fe & Mineral every 15 minutes or so—depending on the time of day. Fares $1.25 for all stops between downtown and Hampden Ave and $ 2.50 for any trip further south than that. Bicycles are allowed on the trains, but only in the back cars and only during non-peak hours.Theme: BusPhone: 303-299-6000Website：www. rtd. denver. com语篇解读：本文为旅行指南。
主要介绍了Denver交通系统的整体情况。
21．According to the passage, the underlined word “pass” in Paragraph 1 may refer to ________.A．the ticket for entering or leaving the bus stationB．the book for 10 ticket coupon or for free chargeC．a long time ticket for admitting a passenger to a busD．the book containing all the service information答案：C词义猜测题。
由第一段“All monthly passes...”可知实际上指的是月票，故pass 在文中应当是指车票，故选C项。
22．The biggest advantage of the RTD bus service may lie in the fact that ________.A．the driver may actively help you set your bike on the trainB．passengers can ask for the driver to get their bikes off the busC．the driver can make room for the bikes any timeD．the passenger can carry his bike to the train during some time答案：D细节理解题。
由第一段中的“You can bring a bicycle on the light rail trains during off peak hours...”可知，在非高峰时间，乘客可以将自行车带到轻轨火车上去，故选D项。
根据上文，司机是不允许帮助乘客搬动或卸下自行车的，故A、B两项不对；在高峰时间车上不得装载自行车，故C项不对。
23．From the passage，we can infer that ________.A．many people turn to riding bikes during rush hoursB．many people prefer sitting on wheelchairs on busesC．it takes 15 minutes to go to Santa Fe & Mineral from 30th & Downing streetsD．the fare for the trip from Downing streets to Hampden Ave is $ 1.25答案：A推理判断题。
由文章的内容可知，在高峰时间一般是不允许将自行车带到汽车或火车上的，那么更多的人就会改骑自行车，故选A项。
轮椅并不是任何人都可以坐的，故B项错误，由第二段的内容可知，从30th & Downing streets到Santa Fe & Mineral的火车每15分钟一班，并不是坐车15分钟就到了，故C项错误；D项不能从原文中得到答案。
24．The best title for this passage may be ________.A．Denver Travel Guide B．RTD Works BestC．Denver Light Rail D．RTD Special Service答案：A主旨大意题。
纵观全文，文章介绍了Denver交通系统的运作、服务及票价情况，是一篇旅行指南。
故选A项。
BRush hour traffic is a problem in many big cities around the world. Commuters(道勤者)rush to and from their jobs in cars, buses, subways, trains, and even on bicycles. Large cities in the United States have two rush hours—one in the morning and one in the evening. But in cities in other parts of the world, there are four rush hours. In Athens and Rome, for example, many workers go home for lunch and a nap. After this midday break, they rush back to their jobs and work for a few more hours.In Tokyo, there's a big rush hour underground. Most of the people in Tokyo take the subways. The trains are very crowded. Subway employees called packers wear white gloves and help pack the commuters into the trains when the doors close. They make sure that all purses, briefcases,clothes, and hands are inside the trains.In Seoul, many commuters prefer to take taxis to get to work. To hail_a_cab,_many people stand at crossroads and raise two fingers. This means they'll pay the cab driver double the usual fare. Some people even raise three fingers! They'll pay THREE times the normal rate.Streets in Rome are very crowded with automobiles and mopeds(摩托自行车)during rush hours. The city can't make its streets wider, and it can't build new highways, because it doesn't want to disturb many historic sites in the city, such as the Forum and the Colosseum. It took the city fifteen years to construct a new subway system. Construction had to stop every time workers found old artifacts and discovered places of interest to archaeologists(考古学家)．In many big cities, there are special lanes on highways for carpools. These are groups of three or more people who drive to and from work together. They share the costs of gas and parking and take turns driving into the city.Getting to work and getting home can be difficult in many places around the world. Rush hour traffic seems to be a universal problem.25．Big cities have traffic problems during rush hours because there are________.A．special lanes on highwaysB．many commutersC．four rush hoursD．many cars on the street答案：B从文中第一句话“Rush hour traffic is a problem in many big cities around the world. Communters...in cars, buses, subways...”可找出答案。
