I thought to myself she-d just got off the bus and was on her way to her daughter's house which is next door to me.I thought I’d give her a lift to her daughter's house.Then from across the busy road I could see the elderly lady I thought was Margaret going in a different direction down a different side street.I was surprised because I was really sure it was Margaret.In fact,I was so sure that I took the trouble of waiting to drive across the busy road to go to Margaret.By the time I caught up with the elderly lady she was at the bottom of a dead end and looked confused as she didn't recognize where she was.It was indeed Margaret.Though I have spoken to her before and given her a lift,she needed reminded of who I was.Margaret got in my car.We arrived at her daughter's house,it seemed in darkness and I didn’t think Julie was in.I told Margaret to go and check.I had to take Lauren to the train station.If Julie wasn’t at home I’d bring Margaret back to her own house.I went to my house and Lauren got in the car,then I saw Julie with Margaret.Margaret thought I was kind to her today.Truth is though that her thankful words will stay with me for a long time.I'm so happy too that the first shop I went to didn't have what Lauren wanted otherwise I' d never have got this beautiful compliment or more importantly, to help Margaret.【1】What was the author doing when she saw

paragraph?A.excitement.B.apology.C.praise.D.reward.2.A disease called “Panama” is threatening supplies of the world's most popular fruit—banana.Two years ago,the United Nations warned that the "Panama disease" could destroy "much of the world's banana crop."Since then,things have not gotten better.A new outbreak was discovered last year in Australia.The disease started in Asia in the 1990s, and later spread to Africa and the Middle East.World health officials worry the disease could travel to Latin America,one of the top banana producers in the world.All this is a big concern because bananas are an important source of income and nutrients for millions of people.They are grown in 135 tropical nations.The United Nations lists bananas as one of the most important foods, along with rice,wheat and corn.Randy Ploetz is a professor at the Tropical Research & Educational Center at the University of Florida.Many consider him as America's top banana expert.As he explained,Panama disease affects the Cavendish banana.The Cavendish is one of more than 500 kinds of bananas.But it is the most popular.“The industry is waking up to the problem,”Ploetz said.“They are pretty scared.”He was speaking Thursday by telephone from Miami,Florida,where he is among 1,000 people attending the International Banana Congress.The meeting was supposed to take place in Costa Rica,but was moved at the last minute.There were concerns banana growers could spread Panama disease from dirt collected on their shoes,Ploetz said.Ploetz said reports that Cavendish banana production could end are not correct.But if the disease spreads to Latin America,it could hurt the world’s economy along with food supplies for millions of people.Still,he said there is reason for hope.Scientists in Australia are working on a genetically engineered banana that might not be at risk of getting Panama disease.【1】What makes World health officials worried about the disease?A.Making the banana disappear.B.Spreading to another continent.C.No effective medicine to kill it.D.No ways to stop it spreading.【2】What do you know about professor Randy Ploetz?A.He is the best scientist studying banana in America.B.He helps farmers grow various bananas.C.He found more than 500 kinds of bananas.D.He will find a better way to protect bananas.【3】What’s the possible measure to defeat the disease?A.Using clone technology to kill the disease.B.Inventing new medicine to prevent the disease.C.Looking for effective ways to make banana healthy.D.Developing a new type of banana free of the disease.【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Scientists Try to Protect Banana Trees.B.Disease Spreads Quickly to Latin America.C.Disease Threatens World Banana Supplies.D.Banana Plays an Important Role in Economy.三、其他There is no way to make somebody stop smoking,and just like with users of any drug,it is very unlikely a person will stop unless he or she wants to.【1】Step One: Make ObservationsSmoking use can affect memory and make it difficult for people to do well at work or school.Other bad effects that you may notice include:【2】Is she getting sick more often than she used to?Write down your concerns using “I” statements,such as “I feel sad that when you smoke you give up your artwork.”【3】Step Two: Approach the PersonBring up your concerns to your friend at a relaxing time.Express your concerns using the statements you wrote down.Tell him you will be there to support him if and when she decides to give up smoking.He will likely give you one of three responses:He wants to quit.【4】He wants to stop,but not yet.You must be willing to calmly accept any of these responses.If he says he does want to stop,go on with the next step.If not,they will have to be visited later when he is ready.Step Three: Prevent Him Giving Up Halfway【5】However,symptoms only appear after some time of quitting smoke.This causes some who are addicted to believe that they are not actually addicted and to start using again.A.He doesn’t want to quit.B.Does this person appear more nervous?C.Are you lazy because you smoke too much?D.It’s best to approach the person in this manner.E.People can become physically dependent on smoking.F.The drug can stay in the system for a long period of time.G.But there are steps you can take to support a friend or family member.四、其他Ever since humans lived on the earth,they have made use【1】various forms of communication.In general,the major form of expressing thoughts and feelings【2】(be) spoken language.【3】there is a language barrier, communication is completed through body language.Smile is the most universal【4】(face) expression,which shows happiness and puts people a ease.But sometimes,it is likely to hide other feelings,like【5】(angry) and worry.There【6】(be) different ways to greet someone in different countries.People from Columbia like approaching others and kiss them on【7】cheek.In France,if adults meet people they know,they can kiss each other twice on each cheek. Being polite to others is【8】(object),but we'd better not give a hug to a person with higher rank.Body language is【9】(real) complex, so we should study international customs【10】(avoid) difficulties in today's world of cultural crossroads.五、短文改错假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下短文。

新疆高一高中英语期末考试班级:___________ 姓名:___________ 分数:___________一、阅读理解1.After returning from her round trip, the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station. “The railway owes me 12 pounds,” she said to Harry Jenks, the young man working at the office. “You sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me 12 pounds.”Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, Madam,” he said politely. “I'll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd.”The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn't have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look sunburnt.” he said to her. “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?”“Yes,” she answered, shyly. “The beach was lovely. And I can swim too!”“That's fine,” said Harry. “My little girl can't swim a bit yet. Of course,she's o nly three ...”“I'm four,” the child said proudly. “I'll be four and a half.”Harry turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket, Madam.” he said. “But you didn't get one for your daughter, did you?”“Er, well ...” the woman looked at the child. “I mean .., she hasn't started school yet. She's only four.”“A four­year­old child must have a ticket, Madam. A child's return ticket from Jersey costs .., let me see ... 13.50 pounds. The law is the law, but since the mistake is mine ...”The woman stood up, took the child's hand and left the office.【1】The woman was angry because ________.A.she couldn't use the ticket for her round tripB.she had to return home a day earlier than she had plannedC.she spent more money than she had expectedD.Harry had sold her a ticket to Jersey where there was no sailing【2】Harry started talking to the little girl ________.A.because he was in trouble and did not know what to doB.because he had a little girl about the same age as this girlC.because he wanted to be friendly to the little girl who looked so niceD.when he suddenly realized that he could find a way out from the little girl【3】When Harry said,“The law is the law, but since the mistake was mine ...” he meant that ________. A.they must follow it, even though the mistake was hisB.he had to be strict with the woman because of the law, although he didn't want toC.the woman had to pay him 1.50 pounds and the railway would pay her for the hotelD.she should pay 1.50 pounds,but he had made a mistake, she could go without paying【4】The woman left the office without saying anything because ________.A.she wanted to go home and get money for the child's ticketB.she was so angry that she didn't have anything to do with the young manC.she was moved by Harry's kindnessD.she knew she would have to pay the railway if she insisted2.The weather is very important to farmers. The calendar might say “August”, but the weather's more like October. For some farmers the cool weather is a good thing. For others, it's a cause for concern.At Apple Hill, the cooler weather was giving the Boeger Winery a chance to concentrate on bottling instead of picking. “Things were really maturing, it has just been a welcome relief to have more time to prepare.” said Greg Boeger of Boeger Winery.But down in the Delta, the earlier hot weather has them two weeks ahead of schedule. Their harvest actually started on Tuesday, and this cooling trend is a worry. There have been no problems yet, but for each of the last two years heavy rain right after Labor Day was a problem, one that Don Pylman would not like to see repeated. “If it doesn't start raining, we're in good shape,” said Pylman. “If the sun comes out and clears up we can get right back to work, but if we do get rain, the rots will start.”The kind of grape makes a difference as well. Thin-skinned grapes like the chardonnay variety are much more sensitive to rain than some of the others. They're also more difficult to dry off.【1】The weather change ________.A.shows that the calendar lacks scienceB.does good to farmersC.shows that the globe is more and more warmingD.doesn't always make farmers worried【2】From the second paragraph we know the Boeger Winery ________.A.isn't prepared for the weather changeB.has his wine bottled earlier than usualC.has no chance to pick the grapeD.in fact,doesn't welcome the weather change【3】The underlined “them” in the third paragraph refers to “________”.A.the grapesB.the family of WineryC.the farmers at Apple HillD.the farmers in the Delta3.A thief entered the bedroom of the 30th President of the United States, who met him and helped him escape punishment.The event happened in the early rooming hours in one of the first days when Calvin Coolidge came into power, late in August, 1923. He and his family were living in the same third-floor suite (套房) at the Willard Hotel in Washington that they had occupied several years before. The former President's wife was still living in the White House.Coolidge awoke to see a stranger go through his clothes, remove a wallet and a watch chain.Coolidge spoke, “I wish you wouldn't take that.”The thief, gaining his voice, said, “Why?”“I don't mean the watch and chain, only the charm (表坠). Take it near the window and read what is impressed on its back.” the President said.The thief read, “Presented to Calvin Coolidge.”“Are you President Coolidge?” he asked.The President answered, “Yes, and the House of Representatives (众议院) gave me that watch charm. I'm fond of it. It would do you no good. You want money. Let's talk this over.”Holding up the wallet, the young man said in a low voice, “I'll take this and leave everything else.”Coolidge, knowing there was $80 in it, persuaded the young man to sit down and talk. He told the President he and his college roommate had overspent during their holiday and did not have enough money to pay their hotel bill.Coolidge decided to offer the man and his roommate two rail tickets back to the college. Then he counted out $32 and said it was a loan (借款).He then told the young man, “There is a guard in the corridor.” The young man nodded and left through the same window as he had entered.【1】Why did Calvin Coolidge live at the Willard Hotel in those days?A.Because the former President was still living in the White House.B.Because the former First Lady hadn't left the White House.C.Because the First Lady liked to live there.D.Because he liked there.【2】The young man and his roommate went back to the college ________.A.by air B.by waterC.by bus D.by train【3】What is NOT the character of President Coolidge?A.Considerate.B.Kind.C.Generous.D.Selfish.【4】Which of the following might happen afterwards?A.The young student repaid the $32.B.The thief was put into prison.C.The President told many reporters the thief's name.D.The President ordered the young man to repay the money.4.This day three foreign gentlemen came to a bus stop in England and waited. About five minutes later, the bus they wanted came along. They were just going to get on when suddenly there was a loud noise behind them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted at them. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what the trouble was about. The three foreigners seemed all at sea and looked embarrassed. No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus — the first person who arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus.Learning the language of a country isn't enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your host country. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well if he/she knows that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man shaking his head to show that he doesn't agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head means agreement. Nodding your head when you are given a drink in Bulgaria will probably leave you thirsty.At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that your glass is repeatedly refilled as soon as you drink up. If you think that you have had enough, you should take the cup or glass in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this in Thailand, however, could cause trouble. Also, you should try to avoid touching the head of an adult — it's just not done in Thailand.【1】The British people tried to push the three gentlemen out of the way because the gentlemen ________. A.were foreignersB.didn't have ticketsC.made a loud noiseD.didn't line up for the bus【2】According to the article, if you want to have a pleasant journey in a foreign country,you should ________. A.learn the language of the countryB.understand the manners and customs of the countryC.have enough time and moneyD.make friends with the people there【3】In India it is considered impolite ________.A.to use the right hand for passing food at tableB.to pass food with the left handC.to eat food with your handsD.to help yourself at table【4】The best title for this article is ________.A.People's Everyday LifeB.Mind Your MannersC.Shaking and Nodding HeadD.Taking a Bus in England二、其他For a long time, I have been thinking about the idea of going abroad to do something worthwhile(值得做的), such as doing some voluntary work, working with kids or animals. However, I had been stopped for different choices with the kind of things I could do and different countries where I could do them. 【1】 And I had been puzzling over how I was able to afford the flights, costs and everything.I thought I couldn't wait to do something.【2】 So I just got up off my bed and went downstairs. I started making sandwiches, and then put some crisps, some biscuits and an apple into about six little picnic bags. I called a couple of friends and told them my idea that I was going into the city to give these foods out to the homeless.【3】While we were buying some other things in the supermarket, we saw a whole cooked chicken that was on sale, so we bought it. We gave it to the first homeless man we came across.【4】 What a feeling like no other!【5】 But I was very sad because I knew I had only helped one person out of thousands. Actually, it made me cry. But still at least I felt good to have helped others and the excitement got me satisfied, so I just had to keep doing that!I think we don't need to look too hard or travel too far for the things that are always on our own doorsteps. A.He was really shocked and grateful.B.He seemed glad to share the story with others.C.They don't need to travel far for voluntary work.D.Besides, it's very expensive to prepare for that.E. I said to myself, “I have to do something worthwhile NOW!”F. My friends loved my idea so much that they decided to join me.G. I felt very happy because I did something making someone's day.三、完形填空All kinds of people come in to have their shoes shined. Most folks are friendly. But this man was different. “How much do you make a week, boy?” he asked me. I felt he was ______ at me. He kept giving a sharp______ around every now and then. All the time I kept ______ where I'd seen his face. Suddenly I knew. I'd seen his ______ in the post office many times. He was the big robber ______ by the police in three states!“You know,” he was saying, “it's imagination that people lack. You'll never get anywhere as a ______ boy.”I kept brushing away on his shoes as ______ as I could. The sooner I finished, the better. He said, “When I was sixteen, I had ______ $2,500 of my own.”That reminded me of something. Was it $2,500 or $5,000 or $7, 500? I wasn't ______. I knew a big reward was ______ for him.But what could I do about it? ______ him with a can of shoe polish? A man of his ______ could grind (碾碎) me into the floor. If only someone would come in!He kept talking away. “Along with ______, it takes courage. The courage to take a chance. Start something on a sho estring.”Suddenly I saw Officer Dailey ______ across the street. Then, real fast, I began tightening the man's shoestrings.

浙江高一高中英语期末考试带答案解析

浙江高一高中英语期末考试班级:___________ 姓名:___________ 分数:___________一、阅读理解st summer I got a real taste of Swiss life when I spent six weeks with a host family in the Bernese Alps.On arriving in Erlenbach where my host family live,I knew I couldn't have asked for a better setting: it was such a beautiful mountain village.And I couldn't have asked for a better host family,either.They made me feel like part of their family,rather than a tourist—I joined in my host family's day-to-day activities,whether helping pick berries in the garden or going to friends' houses.I wasn't only traveling around Europe seeing the major sights,but I lost myself in a different culture.While many Swiss cultures are similar to America's,there are lots of differences,too.For example,most Swissleave their windows open—without screens—all the time.At first I thought all the bugs(虫子)were going to getin and eat me alive,and wondered why they didn't close the windows and turn on the air conditioner.But then I realized there weren't many bugs and I really enjoyed the fresh air.Probably my biggest shock was the language.I expected the Swiss to speak German,but they spoke a dialect called Swiss German,which has hardly anything in common with German.At times I was very frustrated(受挫的)because my three years of German did not help,but my bad mood did not last.Anyhow,many people knewEnglish and were extremely willing to speak it.Signing up for a cultural exchange was probably the biggest risk I ever took,but it was also the most rewarding. When I left,I promised I would return to Erlenbach.There is more to Switzerland than cheese and watches.【1】What the writer liked best about his stay in Switzerland was probably that .A.he made lots of friends in the villageB.he felt a great sense of belonging thereC.he enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the AlpsD.he played a part in the host family's housework【2】How did the writer feel at first when he found his host family always kept the windows open? A.Relaxed.B.Disappointed.C.Excited.D.Worried.【3】Why was the language the writer's biggest shock during his exchange visit?A.Because he had thought that the Swiss spoke German.B.Because he found his German not good enough for communication.C.Because the Swiss spoke English so well that he needn't have learned German.D.Because the locals told him that Swiss German was almost the same as German.2.It may appear strange to hear that crops are making headlines.But this is no ordinary produce—these fruitsand vegetables have been grown in simulated(模拟的)Martian and lunar soils!Though the possibility of growing crops in outer space only gained widespread interest after Matt Damon grew potatoes in the movie "The Martian",scientists have been testing the idea for many years.Fresh produce will after all be the key to setting up space colonies(殖民地).Among the pioneers in this effort is a team led by Wieger Wamelink,a scientist at Netherland's Wageningen University.In 2013,they planted fourteen varieties of plants in simulated Martian and lunar soils.Though the "Mars" plants did not bear any produce,they grew better than the "lunar" plants,most of which died shortly after being ck of vapor in the soil,according to the scientists,might have accounted for the failure.The second experiment began in late 2015.The researchers selected the same crops,while this time they used larger containers and added grass to them.In March 2016,their efforts were rewarded with a variety of produce including the vegetable that kept "The Martian" alive: potatoes.However,the researchers were still not sure if the produce was safe to eat.That's because the Martian and lunar soils contain heavy metals like lead and arsenic,which do not affect plants but are poisonous to humans.After months of testing,earlier this week,the team finally confirmed that the produce was safe for human consumption.Some of the crops even contained lower levels of heavy metals than plants grown in the "ordinary" earth soil.To celebrate the success,the scientists held a dinner party that centered ground the crops.While there is no word on how the food tasted,it sure looks delicious.【1】Scientists are trying out the idea of growing crops in outer space because .A.the movie "The Martian" has opened up the possibility for the ideaB.soils on the Mars and the moon are similar to the earth soilC.it is of great importance to space exploration in the futureD.it is a good solution to the world's growing population【2】What change was made in the second experiment?A.The shape of the containers.B.The types of the plants.C.The conditions of the soil.D.The temperature of the lab.【3】Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A.Wieger Wamelink—a Pioneer in Space Crop GrowingB.Space Colonies—Far from PossibleC.Food Safety—a Main Public ConcernD."Martian" and "Lunar" Crops—Safe for Humans3.For centuries people have hunted animals for food and pleasure.The invention of the gun made it so easy for humans to hunt that some animals were lolled by the thousands and even became extinct(绝种的).This brings up some serious problems since breaks in the food chain upset the balance of nature.Large animals like tigers are being killed by the hundreds every year in India.The Royal Bengal tiger is the only type that exists in India and their number is greatly reduced every year because of poaching(偷猎).The present number is about 2,000,all of which live in tiger reserves.Two hundred years ago the population was23,000 or more.During the British rule of India,many of the so-called English gentlemen killed tigers for pleasure and to show their bravery.This seems stupid because killing an innocent(无辜的)creature with a gun is not a brave deed. Today the tiger skin is very popular.Rich people and fashion designers have no idea what they are doing. Competition between the rich to show off makes them blind to the serious effects.People persuade villagers to kill tigers to get money,and they do it because they are poor and need to feed their families.We must educate them,and the government should give them proper jobs to help solve this problem.The people to blame are those who buy animal products like ivories,furs,tiger bones for medicine and handbags made of animal skins.They must be put behind bars to stop this kind of trade.The earth is home for everyone on it. The trees,animals,birds,and fish of all kinds belong here as much as we do.Only we have the power to change their fate.【1】What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A.The balance of nature has long been broken by human beings.B.It is a tradition for people to hunt animals for food and fun.C.The gun is the leading cause of the extinction of many animals.D.Overhunting can lead to a series of problems in nature.【2】According to the writer,the English gentlemen who played hunting games were .A.brave B.cruelC.confident D.careless【3】What does the underlined word "them" in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.Rich people.B.Fashion designers.C.Poor villagers.D.Government officials.【4】What is the writer's opinion on poaching?A.No buying,no lolling.B.Keep wildlife in the wild.C.Cage the cruelty,not animals.D.Shoot animals with cameras rather than guns.二、其他Looking back at my younger years,I am sometimes amazed at how life has turned out.【1】The only thing that stays the same is who I am,my values,and my interests.If I could go back in time and hang out with my younger self for a day,here's what I would tell her.●Everything happens for a reason.Without mistakes and failure,you would never have learned.Without pain,you would never have grown.Once you understand this,you will know that everything comes in to serve a purpose.So don't think that life is unfair, because everything happens for a reason.【2】●Focus on one thing at a time.It is not surprising that many of us are doing too many things at once.We need to make ends meet.But if you are working three jobs at a time,it is not likely that you will succeed at any of them.You have to keep your eyes on the big picture.You have to ask yourself: What exactly do you want to achieve for the next 10 years?Focus on one thing at a time.【3】●【4】You might be graduating or have hit a turning point with your career.You might feel a bit lost and unsure of where to go.It's okay.Go out there and try as many different things as you can.Don't ever feel like you're wasting your time.Enjoy the journey.Every little path will lead you somewhere.And looking back,you will be able to connect the dots.It will all make sense.●Don't try too hard with people.Don't worry if you feel like it's hard to make new friends.【5】It might take a while until you find new best friends and a mate for life,but when you do,you will know it.It's not hard work.So,just do your things and be yourself.A.Achieve your goals one by one.B.You can plan everything ahead.C.Only time will tell what life will teach us.D.Just be yourself and be as open as you can.E.It's okay to be unsure about your purpose in life.F.Nothing is exactly what I had originally planned for.G.Don't worry too much about a decision you have to make.三、完形填空In February last year,my wife lost her job.Just as suddenly,the owner of the Green House,where I worked as a manager,____a heart attack.His family announced that they were going to____the business because no one in the family wanted to run it.Things looked pretty____.My wife and I read the____in the newspaper each day.

浙江高一高中英语期末考试带答案解析

浙江高一高中英语期末考试班级:___________ 姓名:___________ 分数:___________一、阅读理解1.You drive down the highway with your family or friends in the car,camping equipment and spare clothes in the back.Your windows are down and the wind is hitting you in the face.These are the makings of a classic US road trip.Road trips are quite common in the country,especially during the Thanks-giving holiday,which is the busiest travel time of the year in the country for families and friends who want to get together.And for students,going on a road trip is traditional after graduating from high school or college with their schoolmates.It usually involves traveling great distances across the US and camping out whenever possible. Destinations are different depending on where in the country someone is located.But they all show the same kind of adventure.Popular spots to travel to include Yellowstone National Park,the Grand Canon.However,the most famous of all road trip journey is travelling across the US on Route 66.Route 66 begins in Chicago and ends in Los Angeles.The route goes past many of the lesser-known states.However,it's the bizarre (稀奇古怪的)and wonderful small attractions that draw many road trippers to them.The attractions one sees on these trips are quite strange and very difficult to explain to non-American.They are filled with gas stations that still look like they did back in the 1950s and small restaurants known as "mom and pop restaurants" where you can eat a greasy cheeseburger with a delicious milkshake.Route 66 is also filled with quite unusual,but still fascinating wonders.Deep down,US road trips show the spirit of freedom and openness.The idea is that if you have a car,you have freedom to escape,to discover,to find yourself,to lose yourself.It's a powerful call,one that is part of the US' identity and culture.It is a must-do for anyone who plans to spend time in the US to see the country and all of its wonders.An old saying—"It's not the destination,it's the journey"—best explains what the experience of a road trip truly offers.【1】The first paragraph is designed to .A.present the topic B.list some factsC.raise a question D.give an example【2】What attracts US road trippers most on Route 66?A.Lesser-known states.B.Mom and pop restaurants.C.Gas stations and delicious foods.D.Strange attractions and fantastic wonders.【3】What is the author's purpose in writing the text?A.To introduce US road trips.B.To spread American culture.C.To stress the importance of a road trip.D.To attract US road trippers to Route 66.2.I am a working woman with a secret life: I keep house.An off-an-on lawyer and professor in public,in private I launder and clean,cook and devote serious time and energy to a domestic(家务的)routine,not so different from my grandmothers did as "housewives."When I want a good read,I reach for my collection of old housekeeping handbooks.I enjoy housekeeping and the comforts it provides.I have almost entirely hidden this passion for housekeeping though I am writing a long story about it.No one meeting me for the first time would doubt that I spend my time knitting and remembering household facts.I knew I would not want this information about me to get around.After all,I belong to the first generation of the women who worked more than they stayed home.Being viewed as over domestic can get you socially ostracized.When I made hand-rolled pasta(意大利面)for a dinner,I learned the hard way that some guests will find this annoying,as they do not feel comfortable eating a meal that they regard as the product of too much trouble.When my son was in nursery school,I made the mistake of spending a few hours sewing for him a Halloween dressing,receiving hard stares of many fellow parents who had bought a Batman or Esmeralda costume.Many times my courage in writing the story failed me when painfulsilences followed my confession(坦白)about the long book,"NO,not a history of housework,an explanation of it—a practical book on how you make the bed and make a comfortable home."I managed to hold on partly because not everyone responded with that stare;there was support as well.And I was struck that no one responded with coldness.The topic was clearly hot-too hot for some people to handle,heartwarming to others. 【1】What makes the author enjoy housekeeping?A.The joy and comfort from housekeeping.B.Her wish to be different from others.C.The influence of her grandmothers.D.Her love to her family.【2】Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word in Paragraph 3?A.Interested.B.Rejected.C.Accepted.D.Concerned.【3】We can learn that the author .A.gives up writing her story at times B.does housekeeping as her full jobC.receives some unfair treats D.thinks her book useful to all3."A photograph that one has taken of oneself,typically with a smart phone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website."This is the definition(定义)of the word "selfie" in the Oxford English Dictionary.In fact,it wasn't even in the dictionary until August,2013.It earned its place there because people are now so obsessed(着迷)with selfies—we take them when we try on a new hat,play with our pets or when we meet a friend whom we haven't seen in a while.But does this obsession actually make sense?Is there any scientific explanation for it?Well,you should probably ask James Kilner,a neuroscientist at University College London.Through our lifetime we become experts at recognizing and interpreting other people's faces and facial expressions.In contrast,according to Kilner,we have a very poor understanding of our own faces since we have little experience of looking at them—we just feel them most of the time.This has been proved in previous studies in which participants were shown images of themselves and asked to match their facial expressions in the pictures.In most cases,they failed to accurately produce the same facial expressions without being able to see themselves in the mirror,according to BBC.To further test how we actually sense our own faces,Kilner carried out another study.He showed people different versions(版本)of their own image—the original which had been edited to look less attractive and one that was made more attractive—and asked them to pick the version which they thought looked most like them.Kilner found that most people chose the more attractive picture.This suggests that we tend to think of ourselves as better-looking than we actually are.But what does it say about selfies?Well,isn't that obvious?Selfies give us the power to create a photograph—by taking it from various angles,with different poses,using filters(滤镜)and so on—that better matches our expectations with our actual faces."You suddenly have control in a way that you don't have in non-virtual(非虚拟的)interactions,"Kilner told the Canada-based CTA News.Selfies allow you "to keep taking pictures until you manage to take one you're happy with", he explained.【1】According to Kilner's studies,it can be learned that we .A.know about our own faces wellB.tend to recognize our own faces easilyC.become poor at reading others' facial expressionsD.believe we have better images than we actually do【2】What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 2 refer to?A.Selfie.B.This obsession.C.The history of selfie.D.The rise of selfie.【3】According to Kilner,why do people like taking selfies?A.It enables them to improve their skill of taking a photograph.B.It meets their needs to know their own faces better.C.It makes them possible to reach their expectation.D.It offers them a way to control the virtual world.【4】What might be the best title of the passage?A.What Is SelfieB.Selfie Beautify YourselfC.How Do People Take SelfiesD.Selfies Improve Your Confidence二、其他Your beliefs are very powerful and have the power to create or to destroy your life.【1】If you believe that you are loser,that you never get a break in life or that you can't accomplish anything,these things will be your reality. Believe you are unlimited and that you can do anything you commit to doing.When you do,your accomplishments will know no doubts.You control your beliefs,and that is how you finally control your life.This is a very important point.【2】Many of our beliefs come from our environment,the world we live in on a daily basis.【3】If you are constantly around people who are negative and limiting,find other people to hang out with.Get around positive and successful people.【4】That is why it is so important to experience on a regular basis.Set small,achievable goals,and try your best to reach them."I will finish this project by early afternoon.""I will exercise for 20 minutes tonight."When you experience success,you will believe in success,and that leads to more successes.Beliefs come from knowledge.The more you learn,the more things you will know to be possible.Always take advantage of opportunities to learn something new.It will bring new possibilities into your beliefs and your life. Most importantly,you can develop new beliefs by setting new goals for your life.【5】Then,in your mind,see yourself achieving them in all of their sensory details.Mentally live the experience,see the sights,hear the sounds, smell the aroma and feel the feelings.Your developed beliefs will lead you to their reality.A.If your environment is limiting your beliefs,work hard to change it.B.Set your goals in your mind and attempt to reach them.C.Whatever you believe is what you will become.D.Beliefs also come from past experience.E.Define your goals clearly and exactly.F.Belief comes from achievable goals.G.So how do you develop beliefs?三、完形填空It was summer vacation.Our son,Jack,felt free.He____ride his bike,play his drums,or do nothing at all.I let him enjoy this I'm-on-vacation feeling for several days.But soon,I noticed that____he was enjoying sitting around,weeds were____in the garden,dirty clothes lying here and there and paint coming off in the old farmhouse.So I said to Jack,"I would like you to____at least two hours a day during summer vacation.""What?"Jack asked,____."We need your help and we'll____you,"I went on.The boy got quite____and cried, "I'm only a kid!""You'll____have plenty of time to play.Two hours a day isn't too much to____of a 12-year-old."I pointed out.____,the work became part of Jack's daily routine.Halfway through the summer,the $1 and $5 bills began to____in his drawer.One day he came to me."Mum,do you have any more work I can do today?"he asked."____?"I was surprised."I____if I work extra,I might be able to buy a new____by the end of the summer,"he explained.
