Life could not go if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. So animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering plants.Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit. Most non-flowering plants don’t grow from seeds. They grow from spores. Spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as the seeds. When these spores fall on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.50. The main idea of the passage is that __________.A. plants are important for lifeB. plants cannot grow without airC. there are many plants around usD. we cannot live without water51. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. Plants can be divided into main types: flowering plants and non-flowering plants.B. All fruits have seeds in themC. Seeds are protected by the fruits.D. Some plants grow from spores.52. The word “non-flowering ” in this passa ge means __________.A. 开花的B. 有花的C. 多花的D. 不开花的53. In “shady” place there is __________.A. a lot of sunshineB. a lot of waterC. no waterD. little sunshine参考答案46-53 CDDAABDD******************************************************结束LLetter t o Editor of TV Weekly Dear Sir/Madam,I read Alison Burnham's review of When we were 12, and I do not agree with her.I thought the programme was wonder- ful--I found the old news pictures really interesting--they helped to bring to life the stories the people were telling.The programme reminds me of many things from my own childhood. For example, one day when I was about five, I was going to school on the bus by myself (this was the late 1960s). My mother had given me exactly the right money for a return ticket.I held out my hand with the money in it--one big coin on top of one little coin. The bus conductor took the big top coin only and she gave me a ticket, but it was a pink one for a single journey. I needed a white one for a return journey, but I was too frightened to say anything. When school finished for the day, I couldn't catch the bus home--I had to walk. As a grown-up, whenever I've been in a situation where I need to say something or take some action, this early memory of my bus ride comes back to me, and I'm able to take control of the situation.I would like to say to the director, Bret Ctfrysler, carry on making this kind of programme. Too much TV these days is quiz shows and so-called "reality programmes".I appreciate the human story that can make me laugh and cry. Yours faithfully, Chris Daniels1. What is Chris Daniels' purpose of writing this letter.A. To persuade Bret Chrysler to turn away from quiz shows.B. To entertain other readers with old news pictures.C. To express his appreciation of the programme.D. To have his story told on the programme.2. Chris Daniels tells the story about the bus ticket to_______.A. describe how painful his early experience wasB. draw a direct response from Alison BurnhamC. show how the programme made him thinkD. teach the readers of TV Weekly a lesson3. According to the passage, Chris Daniels had to walk home because_______.A. he hadn't got a return ticketB. he had lost his bus ticketC. he didn't like big crowdsD. he missed the bus home4. What does Chris Daniels now think about his experience on the bus?A. He should have told the conductor then.B. He should have been well treated.C. He regrets going to school alone.D. He wishes it hadn't happened.【解析】本文是作者为感谢TVWeekly节目而给编辑写的一封信,信中谈到自己童年时的真实经历和感受。

2012高考英语二轮复习专题限时训练专题3 任务型阅读10(25分钟)(A)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格中填入最适当的单词。
每空格1个单词。
Everyone needs a break, and vacations are not meant for serious study. Instead, they’re a great way to take a break and enjoy a good book. The Spring Festival is coming up so this is the perfect time to discuss some great English language literature to take on a long train journey or while you’re hanging out with the family.Before getting into the recommendations, we need to determine your English reading comprehen sion level so you don’t pick a book which is so challenging that it’s stressful or so simple that it’s boring.If you’re at the beginner level, there are two options: reading a children’s book or reading a book that you’ve read in Chinese translation. Thi s will help you get over any unfamiliar words or phrases, since you’re already familiar with the story. If you’re at the intermediate level, popular books like pop fiction, mysteries and thrillers are good options, as they’ll be guaranteed page turners and that will increase the possibility of your getting all the way through the book. For advanced readers, science fiction, classic works of literature or contemporary prize winners (Booker, Nobel, Pulitzer)are good options.The most important thing is to pi ck a book that you’re really interested in. When I pick up a new book in Chinese, the first few chapters are always really hard to get through, as I have to get accustomed to the way the individual author uses the language. But after the first few chapters, things get a lot easier, especially if I get involved in the story. Some of my favorite Chinese-language eye candy are books that are series like Brothers by Yu Hua or The Dancer by Hai Yan. I like them because there’s always a lot of action and story de velopment to keep me involved, which helps me make it through those first few chapters.Another great way to keep yourself motivated over the holiday is to find a friend who’s interested in reading the same book. You can make goals that you both want to achieve anddiscuss plot lines or vocabulary issues with each other by SMS or e-mail. I’m currently doing that with my friend Laura. We’ve been doing this since we were classmates in Chinese at college. Some quick recommendations: Harry Potter, start with the first book and go on from there; the Narnia series; anything by US writer Michael Crichton or British writer Agatha Christie; and if you like horror, US writer Stephen King is always unusual and fun. But really you should just find a topic or author that you’re interested in, and the rest will go from there. Happy reading!-from 21st Century(January 21, 2009)(B)Ambition is a necessary quality in life. It is the force which drives us on to use whatever talent we have got. If we haven’t got some degree of ambition, these talents will not be used for our own and other’s benefit. We must continually want to be better than we are. Without ambition we are just jellyfish that flop through life. We only react to events; we don’t try to control them.Ambition, however, can have several defects.First of all it can be unrealistic. We may not be able to see the limits of our own abilities, so we do ambitious things that are completely beyond us. Our career masters can see our good qualities and our limitations objectively. They may tell us that we haven’t th e ability to deal with people and would make good businessmen. We refuse to take their evaluation. We keep on trying. Many years and many disappointments later we are forced to accept their judgment. But what a waste of time our ill-founded ambition has caused us!Secondly, our ambition can be too concentrated. We devote our attention to one narrow aim, such as getting distinctions in our science subjects. Everything that may draw us away from this aim is cut out of our lives. In the end we get our distinctions. But what damage we have caused ourselves in the process! We are isolated beings who only care about a particular examination. And we probably won’t make good scientists. We lack the breadth of view necessary for success in higher studies.Thirdly, our ambition can be limited to lifeless objectives. We want to gain money, or power, or membership of some circles. Persons who feel inferior try to make up by seeking the respect of others through possessions of these artificial signs of worth.Fourthly, our ambition may be self-centered. Instead of directing some of our ambition towards community improvement we may exploit members of the community in the interests of self-advancements. In later life we may be ambitious for the success of our children but we regard this success as only a further mark of our own success.Ambition is necessary in the lives of individuals---necessary for their own improvement and for the improvement of the community in which they live. But, like all blind forces, it must be directed if it is not to cause disaster. It must be tightly controlled by the head and the heart. Otherwise ambition may demand too high a price in terms of human qualities.1.improve2. benefiting3. enable4. lacking5. greater6. reputation/fame7. selfish8.others’9. Conclusion 10.master。

Where is this text most likely from?A.A diary. B.A guidebook.C.A news report. D.A story book.(二)During the COP27 climate conference (会议) in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, an important deal on “loss and damage” was reached. This was a big step forward because at COP26 conference in Glasgow, Scotland, there were no talks on loss and damage at all. The plan is that richer countries will pay money into a special fund that will be used to help poor countries.Loss and damage means the damaging impact of climate change on developing countries. For nearly 30 years, poorer countries have been asking richer countries formoney to help to protect communities from the effects of climate change. Richer countries have produced the most greenhouse gases, but poorer countries are often the worst affected by extreme weather conditions because they are less well equipped to face extreme climate events.Brazil’s newly elected President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva made a speech about preserving the largest rainforest on Earth, the Amazon. During the last 50 years, more than 17% of the Amazon rainforest has been destroyed to make way for farms and towns. However, in his speech, Lula promised that there would be zero deforestation (伐树) in the Amazon by 2030. The conference didn’t just focus on world leaders. It brought together more than 45,000 people to discuss how climate change is affecting their lives. Climate refugees (难民) also had their voices heard. Tshilombo from the Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya said, “Refugees don’t only flee becaus e of war or conflict. It’s also about drought, the effects of climate change.”Some countries weren’t happy with the overall outcome of COP27 because decisions weren’t made on cutting the use of fossil fuels, such as coal, gas and oil, etc. The UK Governme nt’s Alok Sharma said, “I’m incredibly disappointed.”However, this deal was a great achievement for developing countries. Sherry Rehman, the climate minister for Pakistan, said, “I am confident we have tuned a comer in how we work together to achieve clim ate goals.”;4. What is a successful outcome of the COP27 climate conference?A.The deal on loss and damage.B.The deal on using fossil fuels.C.The deal on rainforest preservation.D.The deal on helping climate refugees.;5. What has made it difficult for developing countries to fight against climate change? A.More greenhouse gases.B.Massive deforestation.C.Shortage of money and supplies.D.Terrible weather conditions.;6. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A.Climate change is influencing people’s live s.B.17% of the Amazon rainforest was destroyed.C.Many factors lead to the appearance of refugees.D.There will be less deforestation in the Amazon by 2030.;7. What would Sherry Rehman probably agree with?A.Never put off till tomorrow.B.Many hands make light work.C.Knowledge starts with practice.D.No way is impossible to courage.(三)What are you doing this weekend? Perhaps you're spending time with family, hanging out with friends, or maybe you're going to play a sport. All around the world, people chill out at the end of the working week and take part in leisure activities. In many countries, the weekend consists of Saturday and Sunday, while in others Friday and Saturday are the days of rest. In Afghanistan, Thursday and Friday form the weekend, while in one country, Brunei, Friday and Sunday are the days off.Have you ever stopped to wonder, though, exactly where it originated? And how is the concept going to change? The modern weekend took shape during the Industrial Revolution. In the early 19 century, in areas such as the north of England, people began to leave the countryside to work in towns and cities. There, new factories were springing up. Their working lives were once ruled by nature, with the amount of work depending on the changing seasons. Now, their employers demanded a different rhythm-a six-day week of up to 12 hours a day, followed by one day of rest.Campaigns for workers' rights appeared. By the end of the century they had managed to reduce the working week to five and a half days. This meant that working people could take an interest in hobbies such as photography, which was very new at the time. In the US in the 1920s, the industrialist Henry Ford helped to create the weekend. He gave all his workers Saturday and Sunday off work. His factories manufactured cars, and he wanted to allow his employees time to purchase and enjoy the cars they were producing.These days, in many countries, working a 40-hour week is normal. Many people have a nine-to-five job, but even that is rapidly changing. Technology enables more people to work from home and plan their own use of time. This means that an official period away from work is becoming less important. Perhaps in the future we will work fewer hours altogether. If we become more productive, we should be able to afford the same lifestyle by working fewer hours. It has been estimated, for example, that a worker in the US can achieve a 1950s standard of living by working just 1l hours a week. Some people have recommended a 21-hour working week to help with unemployment, climate change and inequality. However, a change like that may mean more leisure time but it will probably limit people's ability to earn money to enjoy it.8. What does the underlined word “originated” in the second paragraph me an? A.Relaxed. B.Started. C.Appeared suddenly. D.Stopped. 9. What happened as a result of campaigns on behalf of workers?A.People became more inventive.B.People worked fewer hours per day.C.People worked fewer hours overall.D.People found employment in leisure industries.10. The writer says an American businessman gave his workers time off so that A.he could produce more cars.B.they could spend money on cars.C.he didn’t have to pay them to drive.D.they would enjoy working with him.11. Why does the writer suggest the weekend may be less important now? A.Because we start work later than we used toB.Because nobody works over 40 hours a week.C.Because technology empowers individuals to arrange their own time. D.Because people are out control of their working week.二、七选五阅读Mondays are kind of annoying. 12 A recent survey says that most people get the pre-work “Sunday blues”. Starting your Monday feeling sad, anxious and unorganized is hardly the way to kick off a healthy week.The solution? Set aside a little time on Sunday to purposefully prepare yourself for the five days ahead, suggests women’s health expert Marsha Hudnall. 13Do some meal preparations.Figuring out what to have for dinner on weeknights can be surprisingly stressf ul. Stretching out a menu plan on Sunday and swinging by the grocery store for ingredients will help you eat well. Go a step further by chopping and cooking vegetables and a protein (like a roast chicken or scrambled eggs). 14 Or finally attempt a di fferent diet you’ve been meaning to try. For easy dinner planning, just order, and you’ll have a week’s worth of raw materials for delicious and healthy meals.Start a Sunday stress-relief habit.“To be healthy, we have to take care of body and mind,” says Hudnall. Stress has a major impact on health and our ability to concentrate. 15 Four ideas to try: a guided meditation with the help of an app; forest bathing-a practice known as shinrin-yoku in Japan, which basically means taking a long walk or hik e in a wooded area; gentle exercise like yoga; or time cuddling and playing with your pet.16Why not prepare your favorite clothes for Monday?

高三英语限时训练三答案

What do you want to be when you grow up A teacher A doctor How about an ice-cream tasterYes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice-cream. Just ask John Harrison, an “Official Taste Tester” for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufactu rers to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream — as well as for developing over 75 flavors (味道).Some people think that it would be easy to do this job:vc after all, you just have to like ice cream, right No —there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this “cool” field.In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses 60 ice-cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12℉. Harrison explains, “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating ice-cream soup.”While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance. “Tasting begins with the eyes,” he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, “Does the product have the color expected from that flavor” Next it’s time to taste!Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors, and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy — working at one cool job.65. What is John Harrison’s jobA. An official.B. An ice-cream taster.C. A chemist.D. An ice-cream manufacturer.66. According to John Harrison, to be qualified in the “cool field”, it is helpful to ______.A. keep a diary of workB. have a degree in related subjectsC. have new ideas every dayD. find out new flavors each day67. What does Harrison do first when testing ice creamA. He stirs the ice cream.B. He examines the color of the ice cream.C. He tastes the flavor of the ice cream.D. He lets the ice cream warm up.68. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passageA. Tasting with EyesB. Flavors of Ice CreamC. John Harrison’s LifeD. One Cool Job答案65. B解析:这是一道推断题。

限时训练3完形填空I can still remember the first day when I met my best friend. I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother, 36 to look at each other. But we soon lost the 37 and started playing with each other. In the 7th grade, I first lost touch with her. She was 38 family problems and I deserted her to be with the “cooler people”. 39 of my new friends like her as much as I did 40 they knew she had “problems”. However, every summer we would 41 sit at each other’s house and watch soap operas and talk about everything we liked.It was last year when I 42 the problem. I guessed I was just too busy to catch up in high school to realize she 43 someone there for her. Well, she made a new “best friend” and so did I. Then I didn’t know why, but she started cutting herself!She was diagnosed with clinical depression(抑郁症. I was very 44 at first, but with the late night calls, we still stayed in 45 . I wanted to be there for her since her new best friend 46 deserted her, since people were calling her 47 , and I knew I still 48 her like a sister.Yesterday she came 49 me and said this, “I never knew what a best friend was 50 you were the only person that would stop me from cutting; the only person that ever made me feel better about myself and my 51 . You don’t know this but I was trying to kill myself one night when you 52 me and I was crying. I 53 you so much, and you didn’t even know you were 54 me.”We both cried. And I guess a kind of lesson from my life so far is to never 55 your friends.36.A.pleased B.excited C.afraid D.disappointed37.A.happiness B.kindness C.shyness D.sadness38.A.working out B.answering for C.helping with D.going through 39.A.All B.None C.No D.Every40.A.because B.though C.while D.yet41.A.sometimes B.seldom C.just D.always42.A.solved B.noticed C.faced D.understood 43.A.asked B.needed C.had D.left44.A.mad B.careless C.hopeful D.upset45.A.touch B.bed C.hospital D.love46.A.luckily B.successfully C.basically D.calmly47.A.selfish B.crazy C.brave D.lonely48.A.believed in B.waited for C.cared about D.replied to49.A.with B.after C.upon D.to50.A.until B.when C.since D.if51.A.mistakes B.parents C.friends D.problems52.A.visited B.encouraged C.called D.prevented53.A.tell B.owe C.give D.show54.A.helping B.reminding C.cheating D.praising55.A.give up on B.look back at C.drop in at D.look down on阅读理解Imagine a worker who never gets tired. This employee needs no lunch hours or holidays. Working 24 hours a day is no problem. Best of all, he or she is both accurate and efficient. There are few mistakes and tasks are finished quickly.Any manufacturer would want a worker like this in a factory. Many more products could be made and sold if workers never stopped. That’s why there are more and more robots at work today. Robots do a wide variety of tasks. They weld (焊接), drill, and paint new cars. They locate underwater pollution sites. Robots handle poisons. Most of their work is too dangerous, difficult, or unpleasant for people to do. Bydoing the dirty work, a robot is a worker’s helper, or aide.Few robots look anything like people. They are machine. Like otherpieces of machinery, they come in different shapes and sizes. The way theyare built depends on the jobs they do. Most have a single arm that can liftthings. Most are built to handle tools.Each robot has a computer inside it. The computer tells it what to do.Skilled technicians enter directions into this computer. They are trained for this job.The years ahead may be the era of robots. People are using them more and more. Already robots have explored active volcanoes and the ocean floor. Modern robots can maneuver in space. With their skillful movements, they can serve satellites that cannot be reached by humans. Some new uses will include harvesting crops and working in open pit mines. Robots can help us to live better and learn more about our world. 71.What mentioned in this passage is really .A.a hard-working worker B.a day-dreamerC.an advanced machine D.a manufacturer72.Robots can do everything accurately and efficiently because.A.they have brains B.there are computers in themC.they are technicians D.the manufacturer is helping them73.Why do we regard the years ahead as the era of robots? Because .A.no human beings will live on earthB.robots will dominate the earthC.robots will do more and more jobs which people aren’t supposed to doD.humans needn’t do anything that robots can do74.The underlined word “maneuver” means .A.to keep still B.to walk carefullyC.to move skillfully D.to do everything perfectly 75.The best title for this passage is .A.An Unbelievable Story B.What a Machine!C.What a Worker!D.Robot-the Last Creature in the World阅读表达If you are worried about things and are under a lot of stress at work or school, then you are probably not sleeping well. Worry can keep you awake, tossing and turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually fall asleep. When you wake up, you don’t feel refreshed, but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day.Dr. Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper article entitled Stress and Sleep, indicates that . Dr. Winkle says, “The more we worry, the less we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with stress. If we can find a way to get a good night’s sleep,” he adds, “we can often find the energy to deal with what’s worrying us.”So, what is a good night’s sleep? Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy varies a lot. Seven hours in about the average amount, though strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache instead of making you feel more refreshed.Dr. Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselves a short break and do something restful before going to bed. This could be watching TV or listening to music. Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically as well as mentally tired. A bedtime drink can also help, but coffee or tea should be avoided as they contain caffeine and will keep you awake. “When you put the light out,” Dr. Winkle says, “concen trate on relaxing your muscles, working slowly up from your feet, and you’ll be asleep before you know it.”1. What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words)2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?People shouldn’t go to sleep immediately but should take a break after working late in the night.3. Please fill in the blank in the second paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence. (Please answer within 10 words)4. Someone says that the longer you sleep, the better you feel. Try to find some arguments from the passage against the idea. (Please answer within 30 words)5. Translate the underlined sentence in the first paragraph into Chinese.0136. C 【解析】由“我藏在妈妈的身后”“她藏在她祖母的身后”可知,两个小孩不敢看对方。
