2017-2018学年北京四中高二（下）期末英语试卷一、单选题（本大题共20小题，共20.0分）1.Don't be ____________ by products promising to make you lose weight quickly．（）A. taken offB. taken outC. taken inD. taken away【答案】C【解析】该句考查动词短语的词义辨析．take off脱下，起飞；take out除去，拔掉，把……带出去；take in吸收，理解，被欺骗；take away带走．结合句意可知应该选C．故选：C．不要被能让你快速减肥的产品蒙骗了．本题考查动词短语的辨析．在高中的学习中平时要多积累动词及动词固定搭配的用法，考试时只能凭借记忆力来答题，尤其是单项选择很难推出某个搭配的意思，所以平时的积累记忆是尤其重要的．2.At last， people ___________ in the collapsed building were rescued．（）A. were trappedB. are trappedC. trappedD. being trapped 【答案】C【解析】考查过去分词．people与trap之间是动宾关系，用过去分词短语trappedin the collapsed building作后置定语．故C项正确．D项being trapped是现在分词的一般被动式，强调正在发生，不符合题意．故选：C．最后，困在倒塌的大楼里的人们获救了．非谓语动词中的现在分词主要起形容词和副词的作用，在句中作定语、表语、补语或状语，弄清楚现在分词的构成，时态与语态，然后根据题意及上下文选择最合适的答案．3.The police have ___________ tourists ___________ leaving the main tourist centers because they may get lost．（）A. warned； againstB. reminded； ofC. informed； ofD. warned； of【答案】A【解析】考查动词词义辨析．warn sb．against doing sth．警告某人不要做某事；remind sb．of sth．提醒某人某事；inform sb．of sth．通知某人某事；warn sb．of sth．警告某人某事．根据句意，A项正确．故选：A．警察已经警告游客不要离开主要的旅游中心因为他们可能迷路．考查动词词义辨析．弄清楚各个动词的词义，准确地翻译句子及备选答案，然后选择最符合题意的选项．4.He asked me ___________．（）A. whether I knew where his brother has goneB. if I knew where his brother had goneC. that if I knew where his brother had goneD. whether I knew where his brother went【答案】B【解析】本题考查宾语从句．根据句意和结构可知He asked me 后面是宾语从句，宾语从句用if引导，从句中I knew后面接宾语从句，宾语从句用过去完成时．故选：B．他问我是否知道他的哥哥去哪里了．本题考查名词性从句，首先判断属于哪种名词性从句，再判断从句缺少什么成分，如果缺少主宾表，用what，不缺少成分和意思用that，缺少疑问词根据句意判断．5.____is known to everybody，the moon travels round the earth once every month．（）A. ItB. AsC. ThatD. What【答案】B【解析】答案是B．考查定语从句，本题考查as引导的非限制性定语从句，as指代主句the moon travels round the earth once every month的句意内容，as在定语从句中做主语置于句首，故答案选B．众所周知，月亮每月绕地球旋转一周．宾语从句属于名词性从句中的一种，也是学生们需要掌握的一种基本的英语句型，引导名词性从句的连接词选择是考试的重点，学会分析从句的句子成分是解决名词性从句的解题关键．6.They are teachers and don't realize __________ to start and run a company．（）A. what takes itB. what they takeC. what takes themD. what it takes【答案】D【解析】答案D 考查宾语从句．分析句子可知__________ to start and run a company是动词realized的宾语从句，从句中缺少缺少take的宾语，所以用what来引导，语序用陈述语序，所以答案选D．他们是教师，不知道创办和经营公司需要什么．宾语从句属于名词性从句中的一种，也是学生们需要掌握的一种基本的英语句型，引导名词性从句的连接词选择是考试的重点，学会分析从句的句子成分是解决名词性从句的解题关键．7.In order to encourage the workers to work hard，the manager decided to award ____ produced the most in the factory．（）A. whoB. whoeverC. whomeverD. whom【答案】B【解析】答案为B．本题考查名词性从句中引导词的运用．题干中动词award后面为宾语从句，从句中缺少的是主语，故排除做宾语的C和D；whoever任何人，who 谁，表疑问；根据句意，奖励"任何产量最高的人"，故选B．为了鼓励工人努力，经理决定奖励厂里任何产量最多的人．名词性从句考查的关键是连接词的选用和语序，因此，我们首先要搞清从句的性质，掌握各连接词的用法，在此基础上判断．此外，关注名词性从句用陈述语序．8.The new equipment ___________ the disabled during the Rio 2016Olympic Games．（）A. was intended forB. was intended toC. intended forD. intended to【答案】A【解析】本题考查短语be intended for意图是，时间是during the Rio 2016 Olympic Games 用一般过去时．故选：A．新设备是为2016年里约奥运会期间的残疾人设计的．本题考查时态．注意通过上下文语境中判断动作发生的时间．9.The book is said ________ into several languages．（）A. to have been translatedB. having been translatedC. to have translatedD. being translated【答案】A【解析】答案是A．本题考查非谓语动词；题干中包含句式sb．/sth be said+动词不定式，排除B和D；the book和translate之间是被动关系，并且书已经被翻译，故用不定式完成式的被动语态，选择A．据说这本书已经被翻译成几种语言．首先判断选项中的动词在句中是以谓语还是非谓语形式出现，然后根据选项在句中的功能结合非谓语的基本用法做出合理的判断．10.After he stayed in the mountain village for five days without a bath， his clothes really needed ___________．（）A. to washB. washingC. being washedD. be washed【答案】B【解析】考查动名词．当need的主语是物时，后接动词用动名词主动式或动词不定式的一般被动式．故B项正确．故选：B．他在山村里呆了五天没有洗澡，他的衣服确实需要洗了．英语中的动名词是由动词变化而来，动词ing形式的一种，兼有动词和名词特征的非限定动词．它可以支配宾语，也能被副词修饰．动名词有时态和语态的变化．另一方面动名词在句子的用法及功能与名词类同：在句子可以作主语、宾语、表语、定语．它也可以被副词修饰或者用来支配宾语．11.Seeing the terrible situation of the children， he thought he finally found something worth ___________．（）A. fighting forB. fightingC. being foughtD. to fight for【答案】A【解析】考查动词短语词义辨析．worth doing意为"值得做"，fight for意为"为…而战斗[竞争]"，故A项正确．故选：A．看到孩子们的糟糕处境，他认为他终于发现了为之值得战斗的事情．考查动词短语词义辨析．弄清楚各个动词短语的词义，准确地翻译句子及备选答案，然后选择最符合题意的选项．12.-You have made great progress in your English study，haven' t you？-Yes，but much_______．（）A. remains to doB. is remained to doC. remains to be doneD. is remained to be done【答案】C【解析】答案C．固定结构"sth remain to be done"意为"某事留待以后去做"，不定式的被动形式，表示主语是不定式的承受者，因此C项符合语境，故选C．----你在英语学习中已经取得了巨大的进步，是吗？---是的，但很多事情要留待以后去做．remain一词，用法较为复杂，将remain的用法归纳如下：一、用作联系动词，指某人或某事物仍保持某种状态，意为"仍然；依旧"，"留；呆；住；待"，后面可接名词、代词、形容词、介词短语、分词作表语．1．接名词作表语Peter became a manager，but Jack remained a worker．彼得成为了一个经理，而杰克仍然是个工人．2．接形容词作表语Whatever achievements you've made，you should remain modest．无论你取得多么大的成就，你都该保持谦虚．3．接介词短语作表语He had to remain in hospital until he was better．他不得不一直住院直到身体好些．4．接分词作表语接过去分词作表语，表示主语所处的状态或已经发生的被动动作；现在分词作表语，表示正在进行的主动动作．The guests came in，but she remained sitting at the desk reading．客人们都来了，但她还坐在写字台旁读书．二、用作不及物动词，意思是"剩下；剩余；遗留"，此时不能用进行时态，也没有被动语态．After the fire，very little remained of his house．火灾过后，他的家所剩无几．After the earthquake，very little remained of the city of Tangshan．地震过后，唐山这座城市所剩无几．三、指某事"尚待、有待于以后被处置"，后面常接不定式的被动形式，表示主语是不定式的承受者．Many problems remain to be solved．有好多问题尚待解决．It remains to be seen whether you are right．你是否正确，以后见分晓．四、remain作名词remain作名词时表示"剩余物"，一般用其复数形式．例如：The archeologists found some remains of the Song Dynasty．考古学家发现了一些宋代遗迹．五、remaining的用法remaining是形容词，意为"剩余的"，常作前置定语；而left则只能作后置定语．例如：There are still some apples left．还剩余一些苹果．I bought a gift for her with the remaining money．我用剩余的钱给她买了一件礼13.______， his ideas was accepted by all the people at the meeting．（）A. Strange as might it soundB. As it might sound strangeC. As strange it might soundD. Strange as it might sound【答案】D【解析】本题考查as引导倒装句，使用形容词strange+as/though+主谓的句型，意为"虽然"，是让步状语从句．故选：D．虽然他的意见听起来很奇怪，但是会议上所有人都接受了它．As，though引导让步状语从句时，为了语气或者正式文体的需要，通常可以改为倒装的句式．具体变法是把从句中作状语或者表语的"名词/动词/形容词/副词/动词（分词）"提到句首，形成倒装结构．14.Hearing the dog barking fiercely，away _____．（）A. fleeing the thiefB. was fleeing the thiefC. the thief was fleeingD. fled the thief【答案】D【解析】答案：D away副词在句首引起倒装，AC排除，flee意为"逃跑"，是说一个瞬间的事，不用进行时，所以答案为D听到狗凶猛的叫，小偷逃跑了．熟悉各种倒装句型的情况，出于修辞或某种特殊的语法结构的需要，需要将谓语动词放在主语之前，这种语序则叫倒装语序．主语和谓语完全倒置叫完全倒装．15.-My room gets very cold at night．-______．（）A. So is mineB. So mine isC. So does mineD. So mine does【答案】C【解析】答案：C考查倒装句．so+助动词/情态动词/系动词+主语，这种结构表示…也是这样，即主语也这样，前边的情况也适用于后者，如：--I like rock music．我喜欢摇滚乐．--So do I．我也喜欢．so+主语+助动词/情态动词/系动词，表示…确实是．是对前半句的再次肯定，如：-He studies hard．他学习很努力．-So he does．确实如此．第一句话的谓语动词是get，应用助动词do，故排除AB．根据句意可知，对方说房间晚上冷，说话者的晚上也冷，故用so的倒装句，故答案是C．--我的房间到了晚上会变得很冷．--我的房间也是．表示前边的情况也适用于后者时，肯定句用：so+助动词/情态动词/系动词+主语；否定句用neither/nor+助动词/情态动词/系动词+主语，如：I don't like smoking．Neither does he．16.Never before seen anybody who can play tennis as well as Robert．（）A. had sheB. she hadC. has sheD. she has【答案】C【解析】题干中never为否定词，置于句首时句子要部分倒装，其结构为"never+be/助动词/情态动词+主语+谓语剩余部分"，所以排除选项B和D．再者根据定语从句中的一般现在时态，可排除选项A，因为A选项表示"过去的过去"，所以此题选C她之前从未见过谁打网球打得和Robert一样的好．此题考查否定词或短语置于句首，句子部分倒装．当具有否定的词或短语置于句首时，句子部分倒装，其结构为"否定词或短语+be/助动词/情态动词+主语+谓语剩余部分"．常见否定词或短语有：seldom，hardly，rarely，little，few，not，no，never，at no time，in no way，in no case，in no sense，on no account，on no consideration，by no means，not only…but also…（前倒后不倒），not until…（主倒从不倒），no sooner…than…（主倒从不倒，且主句用过去完成时式），hardly…when…（主倒从不倒，且主句用过去完成式）17.His emotional problems ___________ the day when his father walked out of the home and never came back．（）A. date back toB. dated fromC. are dated fromD. dated back【答案】A【解析】考查动词短语词义辨析．date back to=date from意为"可追溯到，始于（某时期）"，一般指从现在往前追溯，要用一般现在时态，没有被动语态．故A项正确．故选：A．他的情感问题追溯到他父亲离家出走从来没有回来的那一天．考查动词短语词义辨析．弄清楚各个动词短语的词义，准确地翻译句子及备选答案，然后选择最符合题意的选项．18.Digging in the garden， he ___________ a piece of broken pottery that looked as if it might be Roman．（）A. came outB. came acrossC. came down toD. came up with 【答案】B【解析】考查动词短语词义辨析．come out出现；显露；出版；come across遇到；无意中发现；come down to可归结为；come up with提出；想出．根据句意，B项正确．故选：B．在花园里挖掘时，他无意中发现一片破的看起来好像是罗马人的陶器．考查动词短语词义辨析．弄清楚各个动词短语的词义，准确地翻译句子及备选答案，然后选择最符合题意的选项．19.Fast-food restaurants are ___________ all over the town．（）A. springing upB. bringing upC. taking upD. setting up【答案】A【解析】考查动词短语词义辨析．springing up出现，涌现；bringing up抚养，培养；taking up占用，开始从事；setting up设立．根据句，A项正确．故选：A．快餐店如雨后春笋般在这个镇上出现．考查动词短语词义辨析．弄清楚各个动词短语的词义，准确地翻译句子及备选答案，然后选择最符合题意的选项．20.The flames ___________ dancing shadows on the walls．（）A. committedB. squeezedC. castD. underwent【答案】C【解析】考查动词词义辨析．committed承诺；squeezed挤压；cast投，投射；underwent 经验，遭受．根据句意，C项正确．故选：C．火焰在墙上投下跳舞的影子．考查动词词义辨析．弄清楚各个动词的词义，准确地翻译句子及备选答案，然后选择最符合题意的选项．二、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）ANew Jersey Botanical Garden Membership It's easy to join New Jersey Botanical Garden （NJBG）Membership or renew your membership online，by phone or by mail．And it's so important to the Botanical Garden!Your membership dollars help to improve the Garden，and provide educational and recreational （娱乐的）activities for the general public．Thank you for your support!To join or renew，please click on the appropriate section and membership category below for safe and convenient online payment processing by PayPal．If you prefer to join by phone or mail，call the NJBG office at （973）962-9534or download and send in our membership brochure （Adobe Acrobat PDF file）．Join NJBG Todayfor a 44-room Tudor Revival granite （公馆）designed by John Russell Pope．Skylands has 96 acres of formal and naturalized gardens and is surrounded by over 1，000 acres of meadows （草坪）and woodlands．Purchased by the State in 1996 and officially named as the New Jersey State Botanical Garden in 1984，the gardens contain approximately 5，000 species and varieties of trees and flowers．For you，the NJBG is an exciting and beautiful place to visit where you may enjoy each season's best．Members enjoy special events，festivals，lectures，and rewarding educational opportunities for both city and country gardeners．Your NJBG membership offers you discounts at participating nurseries，garden centers and other fine businesses．Simply present your NJBG membership card when beginning your purchase：•Goffle Brook Farm and Garden Center，（201）652-754010% off your purchase•Metropolitan Plant Exchange，（973）683-761312% off your purchase•Rohsler's Allendale Nursery & Florist，（201）327-315615% off your purchase21.The NJBG membership dollars can be used to ______ ．A.

Start the car the moment everyone is seated．B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron working．C. Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better．D. Move an object out of the way before it trips someone．26.The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to ______ ．A. keep her appointment with the eye doctorB. meet her father who was already an old manC. join in the holiday celebration of the companyD. finish her work before the deadline approached27.The underlined word "foregone" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______ ．A. abandonedB. lackedC. avoidedD. abused28.What is the best title for the passage？______A. The Emotional Well-beingB. The Two Saddest WordsC. The Most Useful RuleD. The Peace of Mind【答案】【小题1】D 【小题2】B 【小题3】A 【小题4】B【解析】1．D．推理判断题．根据第二段When my children were young and likely to cause accidents，I always thought about what I could do to avoid an"if only"，当我的孩子还很年轻，很可能会导致事故时，我总是想我能做些什么来避免"要是……多好"，可知D项在某物拌倒人之前把它移走，符合，故选D．2．B．细节理解题．根据第三段 I realized that I shouldn't give up an opportunity to see him．I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all，我意识到我不应该放弃去看他的机会．我给他打了电话，告诉他我决定在我休假的那天去上班．可知作者决定在耶稣受难节去办公室见他父亲，故选B．．3．A．词义猜测题．根据第三段We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunit y to say"I love you"or"I forgive you可知我们都知道失去亲人的人，后悔他们已经放弃了说"我爱你"或"我原谅你"的机会，故选A．4．B．主旨大意题．据首尾段的第一句话及文章大意，可知本文主要针对if only，如果当时…多好，展开话题进行讲解，故选B．本文主要讲述了作者认为英语中最悲伤的两个词语是"if only"．因为他们表达了遗憾，父亲在我小的时候经常让我提前做一些能防止意外发生的事，因此我懂得珍惜现在所拥有的一切，而且我知道我正在做对的事．题目涉及到细节理解题，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要联系上下文根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据，词义猜测题需要我们推测出单词所在句子的意思后，再进行选择．CPhoneSoap：Charge and Clean Your Phone You may charge your phone every day，but do you clean your phone as much？Whatever your hands touch，your phones touch．It has been discovered that some phones have 18 times more bacteria and viruses than any surface in a public restroom．So it probably won't surprise you that a 2011 University of London study found that one in six of our phones have bacteria and viruses on them-specifically，the bacteria called E．coli．The research on bacteria and viruses led to the invention of PhoneSoap．It is not actually liquid like dishwasher soap．It is a phone charger that uses the electromagnetic radiation used in hospitals to kill 99.9 percent of bacteria and viruses，cleaning your phone while it charges．"There are really certain types of bacteria and viruses that we should not be in touch with，and they are really on our phones，" says Wes Barnes，the PhoneSoap co-founder．It all started while his cousin and co-founder，Dan LaPorte，was in his cancer research lab at college．"He realized he got the idea of getting rid of bacteria and viruses on the phones，" said Barnes．"In the lab they used UV-C light for destroying them．He realized this would be the fastest，mostpowerful way to kill any bacteria and viruses living on electronic machines．"PhoneSoap looks like a little metal suitcase．Your phone rests in to charge and get cleaned at the same time．Instead of plugging your phone into the wall，you'd plug it into the PhoneSoap charger box．The process only takes a few minutes but，Barnes says，"The idea is that you can leave it in there overnight if you want to keep charging．Reflective paint keeps the light completely around the phone so it cleans the phone fully．"The co-founders spent 2013 finding the right companies and they started shipping the product in late November．By last week's International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas，PhoneSoap was all grown-up．Both co-founders have left their previous jobs and are selling PhoneSoap nonstop．"We're shipping almost more than we can handle each day，" Barnes says．"It's been a great adventure．"29.We can learn from the first paragraph that ______ ．A. phones can be very dirtyB. phones are where bacteria are bornC. most phones are attacked by bacteriaD. phones store more bacteria in a restroom30.According to the passage，PhoneSoap ______ ．A. takes a whole night to kill bacteriaB. deals with bacteria with radiationC. is a kind of liquid like dishwasher soapD. has to be plugged into the wall to work31.From what Barnes said in the last paragraph，we can infer that ______ ．A. PhoneSoap is in great demand nowB. PhoneSoap is really hard to handleC. they can't produce enough PhoneSoapD. they'll make improvements to PhoneSoap32.What's the passage mainly about？______A. Methods of cleaning phones．B. Tips on charging phones quickly．C. Soap killing harmful bacteria on phones．D. A phone charger keeping your phone clean．【答案】【小题1】A 【小题2】B 【小题3】A 【小题4】D【解析】1．A．推理判断题．根据第一段的内容，尤其是It has been discovered that some phones have 18 times more bacteria and viruses than any surface in a public restroom．可知，手机上也有很多的病毒和细菌，所以手机可能会很脏，故选A．2．B．细节理解题．根据第二段的It is a phone charger that uses the electromagnetic radiation （辐射）used in hospitals to kill 99.9 percent of bacteria and viruses，cleaning your phone while it charges．可知，手机清洁皂用辐射来给手机边充电边杀菌．故选B．3．A．推理判断题．根据最后一段的Phone Soap was all grown-up推断，手机清洁皂现在大量需要．供不应求，故选A．4．D．主旨大意题．本文是在介绍一种能让手机干净的手机充电宝．故选D．手机上也会有很多的病菌和细菌，现在有一款新型的充电宝，能一边给手机充电一边还能用辐射杀死手机上的细菌和病毒．现在的销售很火爆．做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据．DBritish anthropologists Russell Hill and Robert Barton of the University of Durham，after studying the results of one-on-one boxing，taekwondo，Greco-Roman wrestling and freestyle wrestling matches at the Olympic Games，conclude that when two competitors are equally matched in fitness and skill，the athlete wearing red is more likely to win．Hill and Barton report that when one competitor is much better than the other，colour has no effect on the result．However，when there is only a small difference between them，the effect of colour is enough to tip the balance．The anthropologists say that the number of times red wins is not simply by chance，but that these results are statistically significant．Joanna Setchell，a primate （灵长目动物）researcher at the University of Cambridge，has found similar results in nature．She studies the large African monkeys known as mandrills．Mandrills have bright red noses that stand out against their white faces．Setchell's work shows that the powerful males-the ones who are more successful with females-have a brighter red nose than other males．As well as the studies on primates by Setchell，another study shows the effect of red among birds．In an experiment，scientists put red plastic tings on the legs of male zebra finches and this increased the birds' success with female zebra finches．Zebra finches already have bright red beaks （鸟喙），so this study suggests that，as with Olympic athletes，an extra flash of red is significant．In fact，researchers from the University of Glasgow say that the birds' brightly coloured beaks are an indicator of health．Jonathan Blount，a biologist，and his colleagues think they have found proof that bright red or orange beaks attract females because they mean that the males are healthier．Nothing in nature is simple，however，because in species such as the blue footed booby，a completely different colour seems to give the male birds the same advantage with females．Meanwhile，what about those athletes who win in their events while wearing red？Do their clothes give them an unintentional advantage？Robert Barton accepts that "that is the implication" of their findings．Is it time for sports authorities to consider new regulations on sports clothing？33.According to their research，Hill and Barton conclude that ______ ．A. the colour of clothing has an effect on most sport eventsB. red should be the choice of colour for clothing in sportsC. red plays a role when competitors are equally capableD. athletes perform better when surrounded by bright red34.The underlined word "tip" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______ ．A. achieveB. seekC. keepD. change35.The example of the blue footed booby proves that ______ ．A. male birds use different body parts to draw attentionB. red is not the only colour to attract female birdsC. blue gives female birds the same advantageD. blue can indicate how healthy a bird is【答案】【小题1】C 【小题2】D 【小题3】B【解析】1．C．细节理解题．根据第一段……conclude that when two competitors are equally matched in fitness and skill， the athl ete wearing red is more likely to win．可知Hill和 Barton通过研究得出结论：当竞争对手的能力相当时，红色起了胜利作用．故选C．2．D．猜测词义题．句意：然而，当它们之间只有很小的差别时，颜色的影响就足以打破这种平衡．此处指当竞争对手的能力相当时红色能够帮助取胜，改变原来的平衡．句中"tip"和change同义，故选D．3．B．推理判断题．上文介绍一些动物中，红色对鸟类的影响．红色能够使它们更成功，更有魅力．而蓝脚鲣鸟，一种和红色完全不同的颜色似乎给雄性鸟儿和雌性鸟儿同样的优势．作者用这个例子是为了说明红色不是唯一能够吸引雌鸟的颜色．故选B．研究表明：当竞争对手的能力相当时，红色起了胜利作用．红色对鸟类、对运动员的成功都起着重要作用．做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据．三、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）People Are People Globalization has brought different cultures together in a way unimaginable one hundred years ago．Today，Chinese，Indians，Arabs，Africans，Anglos，and Hispanics may all work in the same offices，attend the same schools or live in the same neighborhoods．(1) And our society has lately emphasized the importance of diversity．(2) Take the following old proverbs for example．"Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom．" Thomas Jefferson，American President．"One falsehood spoils a thousand truths．" African proverb"Be honest to those who are honest，and be also honest to those who are not honest．" Lao Tzu，Chinese philosopher．"A sacrifice is written off by a lie and the merit of devotion by an act of cheat．" Hindu saying (3) There seems to be a sort of cultural unity．We don't wish to imply all cultures are the same．Cultural diversity is real，and people from different cultures view many situations in different ways．However，historically，different cultures seem to share many common values．They are justice，courage，patience，generosity，equality，mercy and kindness，respect for the elders，and many more．Lying and stealing appear to be wrong no matter where you go．Perhaps some cultures make room for extenuating（情有可原）circumstances more than others；perhaps cultures apply these virtues in different ways；and when values disagree，different cultures may place different levels of importance on them．(4) But both cultures may still value both．To us，it seems as if there is some sort of code of right and wrong that everyone everywhere seems to understand，regardless of culture．It is almost as if，behind all of the diversity，one finds a common understanding-a human culture，if you will-that goes beyond racial，social，and political boundaries．(5) ．A．Each value supports many more quotes from different cultures．B．As cultures rub shoulders with each other，many differences stand out．C．These quotes from four separate cultures all support the same value-honesty．D．In other words，one culture may lean more toward justice and another culture more toward mercy．E．It is almost as if，despite all our differences，we are all still the same-we are just people．F．We want to show，however，that there is more to these cultures than diversity．G．All people seem to agree that we should tell the truth．36.

AAll you have is what you bring with youI've always felt a need to be prepared for whatever situation I've found myself in.My mother once took me to a store when I was seven years old. She and I got to the checkout counter, and she realized she had forgotten a couple of things on h er shopping list. She left me with the cart and ran off to get what she needed."I'll be right back." she said.She was gone just a few minutes, but in that time, I had loaded all the things on the belt and everything was rung up. I was left staring at the cashier, who was staring at me. "Do you have money for me, son?" she said. "I'll need to be paid."I didn't realize she was just trying to amuse herself. So I stood there, ashamed and embarrassed.By the time my mom returned, I was angry. "You left me here with no money! This lady asked me for the money, and I had nothing to give her!"Now that I'm an adult, you'll never catch me with less than $200 in my wallet. I want to be prepared in case I need it.I've always admired people who are over-prepared. In college, I had a classmate named Norman. One day he was giving a presentation on an overhead projector and in the middle of his talk, the light bulb (灯泡) on the projector blew out. We would have to wait ten minutes until someone found a new projector."It's Okay." he announced. "There's nothing to worry about."We watched him walk over to his bag and pull something out. He had brought along a spare bulb for the overhead projector. Who could even think of that?I often told my students, "When you go into the wilderness, the only thing you can depend on is what you take with you." And essentially, the wilderness is anywhere but your home or office. So take money. Pack a light bulb. Be prepared.66. Why was the boy angry with his mother?A. His mother left him alone.B. He lost face in front of the cashier.C. His mother forgot to buy something.D. He had just quarreled with the cashier.67. Why did Norman bring a spare bulb with him?A. He was always well-prepared.B. His presentation was about bulbs.C. He knew the classroom equipment was of poor quality.D. He predicted the bulb on the projector would blow out.68. What do the two stories tell us?A. Accidents happen almost every day.B. Money is the key that opens all doors.C. In fair weather, prepare for a rainy day.D. Chances favor those who are well-prepared.Keys: 66-68 BAC第三部分：阅读理解（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。

DText messaging is a surprisingly good way to receive candid responses to sensitive questions, according to a new study to be presented this week at the annual meeting of the American Association for Public Opinion Research. "The preliminary (初步的) results of our study suggest that people are more likely to disclose sensitive information via text messages than in voice interviews," says Fred Conrad, a psychologist at the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research."This is sort of surprising," says Conrad, "since many people thought that texting would decrease the likelihood of disclosing sensitive information because it creates a persistent, visual record of questions and answers that others might see on your phone and in the cloud."With text, the researchers also found that people were less likely to engage in "satisficing"－a survey industry term referring to the common practice of giving good enough, easy answers. "'We believe people give more precise answers via texting because there's just not the time pressure in a largely asynchronous (非同步的) mode like text that there is in phone interviews," says Conrad. "As a result, respondents are able to take longer to arrive at more accurate answers."Conrad conducted the study with Michael Schober, a professor of psychology at the New School for Social Research. "We're in the early stages of analyzing our findings," says Schober. "But so far it seems that texting may reduce some respondents' tendency to shade the truth or to present themselves in the best possible light in an interview, even when they know it's a human interviewer they are communicating with via text. What we cannot yet be sure of is who is most likely to be disclosive in text. Is it different for frequent texters, or generational, for example?"For the study, the researchers recruited approximately 600 iPhone-users through Google Ads, offering them iTunes Store rewards to participate in the study. Their goals were to see whether responses to the same questions differed depending on several variables: whether the questions were asked via text or voice, whether a human or a computer asked the questions, and whether the environment, including the presence of other people and the likelihood of multitasking, affected the answers.75. The underlined word "candid" in Para. 1 probably means ________.A. straightforwardB. appropriateC. ambiguousD. objective76. Compared with phone interviews, texting has the strength that people could ________.A. present their best to the interviewersB. have more time to make a replyC. pay less for sending a messageD. enjoy more freedom of speech77. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Texting Downs ResponsesB. Texting Exposes IdentityC. Texting Benefits IntervieweesD.

They can be a little frightening as we step into the unknown, but they can also inspire us as they give us fresh hope for the future. First days are powerful as we can leave our mistakes and failures in the past and make a new start.I want to share a story that perfectly illustrates this point. It is a story about a little girl named Trisha.Trisha was born into a family of teachers who had taught her that reading was the key to knowledge. She watched her older brother as he read his schoolbooks and could hardly wait for the day when she would learn to read.But when Trisha finally started school, she found that she was not able to understand the words like the other boys and girls. No matter how hard she tried, the letters mixed up together, and she saw only confusion. Trisha fell further behind, the other children laughed and made fun of her, and she began tobelieve that she was not smart. By the time Trisha entered fifth grade, she had lost all confidence I herself.That was the year she met Mr. Falker. He was different. He praised Trisha's talents, and he wouldn't tolerate the other children teasing her. Mr. Falker realized that Trisha didn’t know how to read, but he knew she could with some help.He recruited（招聘）a reading specialist, and together they worked with Trisha after school. They helped her to write letters ad hear the sounds until one day Mr. Falker handed her a book and she read it all by herself.Shedidn't even notice the tears in his eyes.This is a true story. The little girl is Patricia Polacco, the famous children’s author, and thank you Mr. Falker is the twenty-sixth book that she has written.Mr. Falker gave her a fresh new start when she walked into his fifth grade class on that first day of school.And he made a difference in her life.We can all make a difference in the world—one student at a time by using "first days" with wisdom and grace, and giving each individual the chance to start over and become the best that they can be.（1） Trisha fell far behind in school because she .A. was not confidentB. was looked down upon by othersC. did not know how to readD. did not try her best（2） The passage is probably intended for .A. teachersB. studentsC. children’s authorsD. reading specialists（3） How does the writer make his point?A. By giving an example.B. By making suggesting.C. By arguing.D.

Work sharing requires more workinghours．B. Work sharing is aimed at creating more jobs．C. Work sharing provides a more satisfactory salary．D. Work sharing depends on the employer's decision．（2）According to Paragraph 4, young mothers preferred job sharing to conventional part-time work mainly because ．A. they sought higher social statusB. they were over ideal working agesC. they had difficulty finding full-time jobsD. they had to take care of both work and family（3） In job sharing the partners should ．A. enjoy equal social statusB. have similar work experienceC. keep in touch with each otherD. know each other very well（4） The main purpose of the passage is to ．A. describe job sharing in generalB. discuss how to provide more jobsC. recommend job sharing to womenD. compare job sharing with work sharing25.DA Good Night's SleepSleep plays a vital role in good health and well-being throughout your life. While you're sleeping, your brain is forming new pathways to help you learn and remember information. Although we all know the best way of getting a good night's sleep, not all of us know the best way of getting it. A sleep expert, Phil Atherton, gave some top tips for getting the most out of the night, which will leave you ready for action in the morning.According to Phil Atherton, not eating a large meal before bedtime is important for getting a good night's sleep. The time difference between eating any food three hours before bed, as it will lower your blood sugar during sleep and help minimize damage from too much sugar floating around.It's also important to find ways to prepare your body for sleep. You can follow a routine like trying not to expose yourself to too much artificial light within 1 hour before bed, as your brain uses light to help set internal "body clock". Although it might seem unnatural to schedule your sleep, the purpose is to send a signal to your body and mind that it's time to sleep.Another way to prepare your body for sleep is to get into a relaxed state by taking a bath or listening to soft music. Both of them will help to take the minds off the daytime pressures.Having a suitable bed, especially a suitable mattress（床垫）, is necessary for a good night's sleep. Sleep is a personalized activity, and we all adopt different sleeping positions. Finding the mattress that suits you will reduce back pains that can result from a poor sleeping position. The bed should be four to six inches longer than its tallest user, allowing for space to move around.The recent research is pretty clear that a good night's sleep is a major component of good health. Since the start of the 21st century, studies have linked a lack of sleep to many diseases, such as diabetes and obesity. Taking action now will lead to long-term benefits for you and those around you.（1） What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?A. When to start a sound sleep.B. How to get a good night's sleep.C. What to do with sleep problems.D. Why to form a good habit of sleeping.（2） According to the author, before going to sleep, you'd better .A. free yourself from tensionB. check your blood sugarC. relieve your pain in the backD. record your biological clock（3） What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Not eating food.B. Taking a meal.C. Not sleeping well.D. Having a good sleep.（4） Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?CP: Central Point P:Point Sp: Sub-point（次要点）C:ConclusionA. B.C. D.26. EAs computers become all the more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly depending on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes （笔画） of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more widely spread among university students.Almost all their assignment and essays are typed on a computer.All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.It's faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that's why computers are being applied moreand more often to modern education. But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear."When I'm writing with a pen, I find I often can't remember how to write a character, though I feel I'm familiar with it.""I'm not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper."Many students don't feel this is something to worry about. Now that it's more convenient andefficient towrite on a computer, why bother to handwrite?Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said, "Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic（审美的）value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer's emotion. Through one's handwriting, people can get to know one's thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them."To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory （必修的） and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework andessays written by hand.（1） The underlined expression "taking stock in" in paragraph 4 probably means .A. getting bored withB. getting dependent onC. becoming crazy aboutD. getting curiousabout（2） The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because .A. computers have become a trend and fashion in ChinaB. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essaysC. they find it not easy to remember how to write a characterD. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently（3） Which of the following statement is NOT true of the advantage of handwriting?A. Handwriting contains the writer’s emotions.B. Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.C. Handwriting can impress people well and build one's self-confidence.D. The writer's thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.（4） Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. To Type or to Handwrite?B. The Importance of Handwriting and TypingC. Writing by Computer Will Replace Writing by HandD. Practical and Aesthetic Value of Chinese Characters七选五27. SelfieSocial media and the mobile web have given rise to a strange phenomenon called the selfie.But not everyone is familiar with the term, so here's a brief definition. 1 Everyone takes selfies, but the younger crowd seems to be especially involved in the trend.Some selfies are extreme close-ups, other show part of an arm held straight outward and a few of the greatones even feature the subject standing in front of a bathroom mirror so that they can get a full body shot of their reflection. 2 Since social media is the driving force of most selfie activity, younger kids interested in staying connected to their friends, boyfriends, girlfriends, etc. are more active in sharing selfies on a regular basis.Who knows what kind of psychological factors drive any specific person to take a selfies and upload it to asocial networking site.3Here's one. Not only are young people plugged into the web at all times, but they also have more self-esteem issues---and many of these teens or college kids might upload selfies to deal with their own self- consciousness. 4 When you feel good or look good about yourself, it's far too easy to reach for you phone and document it all through one or several selfies. Kids who are connected on a social network to someone they admire may be more driven to upload attractive selfies as a way to seek attention, especially if they're too shy to do it in person.Besides, there are people who are bored at work, bored at school, etc. So they will take selfies because they have nothing else better to do. Last but not least, social media is about being social! If that means uploading as many selfies as possible, then so be it. 5 They just do it because they like to do it, it's fun, and it’s a coolway to sort of document yourown life.A. Some people don't need a real reason to do it.B. There's so much more meaning behind why we do it.C. It's about getting attention from as many people as possible.D. There are lots of selfie styles, and these are some of the most common.E. Selfie is a picture of yourself, usually shared on any social network website.F. What's more, it's human nature to want to show off your own great achievement.G. Everyone's own situation is different, but here are some of the most common theories.语法填空28. 请根据情态动词、虚拟语气、状语从句及名词性从句的基本用法进行填空。
