临阵磨枪不快也光,那基本是歪理邪说。

参加考试需要的是“硬”道理。

让应试教育尽快见鬼去吧……Passage 1No one is glad to hear that his body has to be cut open by a surgeon(外科医生)and part of it taken out.Today,however,we needn't worry about feeling pain during the operation.The sick person falls into a kind of sleep,and when he awakes,the operation is finished.But these happy conditions are fairly new.It is not many years since a man who had to have operation felt all its pain.Long ago,operation had usually to be done while the sick man could feel everything.The sick man had to be held down on a table by force while the doctors did their best for him.He could feel all the pain if his leg or arm was being cut off,and his fearful cries filled the room and the hearts of those who watched.Soon after 1770,Josept Priestley discovered a gas which is now called “laughing gas”.Laughing gas became known in America.Young men and women went to parties to try it.Most of them spent their time laughing,but one man at a party,Horace Wells,noticed that people didn't seem to feel pain when they were using this gas.He decided to make an experiment on himself.He asked a friend to help him.Wells took some of the gas,and his friend pulled out one of Well's teeth.Wells felt no pain at all.As he didn't know enough about laughing gas,he gave a man less gas than he should have.The man cried out with pain when his tooth was being pulled out.Wells tried again,but this time he gave too much of the gas,and the man died.Wells never forgot this terrible event.1.It is ____since a man being operated felt all the pain.A.a few more years B.not longC.few years D.two thousand years2.Long ago,when the sick man was operated on,he ____.A.could feel nothing B.could not want anythingC.could feel all the pain D.could do anything3.Using the laughing gas,the people did not seem to ____.A.be afraid of anything B.feel painC.want to go to the parties D.be ill4.If a man took less laughing gas than he should have when an operation went on, he __.A.felt nothing B.felt very comfortable(舒服的)C.still felt pain D.would die5.One who took too much of the laughing gas ___.A.would laugh all the time B.would dieC.would never feel pain D.would be very calm参考答案:CBCBPassage 2Modern zoos are very different from zoos that were built fifty years ago. At that time, zoos were places where people could go to see animals from many parts of the world. The animals lived in cages that were made of concrete (混凝土) with iron bars, cages that were easy to keep clean. Unfortunately for animals, the cages were small and impossible to hide in. The zoo environment was anything but natural. Although the zoo keepers took good care of the animals and fed them well, many of the animals did not thrive (茁壮成长) ; They behaved in strange ways, and they often became ill. In modern zoos, people can see animals in more natural habitats (家园).The animal was given more freedom in large areas so that they can live as they would in nature. Even the appearance of zoos has changed. Trees and grass grow in the cages, and streams of water flow through the areas that the animals live in. There are few bars; there is often only a deep ditch (沟渠), filled with water, surrounding an area where several species of animals live together as they would naturally.注:本段文字很方便设计完形填空题目,可以让学生认真阅读熟悉其内容。

The smoke also contains many gases, most of which cannot be seen. Altogether, they make up the serious problems of air pollution. In so many places it keeps us from seeing the sun, irritate(刺痛) our eyes, causes us to cough and makes us ill.Air pollution can spread from city to city. It even spreads from one country to another. Some northern European countries have had "black snow" from pollutants that have traveled through the air from other countries and have fallen with the snow. So air pollution is a global problem. It can kill babies, older people and those who have respiratory(呼吸) disease. In 1952, four thousands people die in one week as a result of a serious air pollution breakout in London. In 1948 in a small town of Pennsylvania, 20 people died in a four - day period of air pollution. As often found in cities, air pollution increases the risks of lung disease, such as bronchitis and asthma. Of course, smoking and other factors help to cause these illnesses, too, but these causes have increased greatly during recent years as air pollution has become worse.(1)、Which of the following is NOT true about the "black snow" incident?A:It happened in the northern European countries.B:It happened there because air pollution in these countries was most serious.C:Pollutants that fell with snow made it dirty.D:It is a global problem.答案: B评析:空(2)、Who can be killed by air pollution?A:Earth and plants.B:Stones and birds.C:Those who suffer from respiratory illnesses.D:Both A and C.答案: C评析:此题没有评析(3)、How many people died of air pollution in Pennsylvania in 1948?A:4,000.B:20.C:None.D:4020.答案: B评析:此题没有评析(4)、What are bronchitis and asthma?A:Different types of headaches.B:Lung disease.C:Heart diseases.D:Different types of stomach aches.答案: B评析:此题没有评析(5)、According to the passage, air pollution increases people's chance of getting ______?A:Headache.B:A lung disease.C:Stomachache.D:Nervous breakdown.答案: B评析:空2、 Paper is one of the most important products ever invented by man. Wide spread use of written language would not have been possible without some cheap and practical material to write on. The invention of paper meant that more people could be educated because more books could be printed and distributed. Together with the printing press, paper provided an extremely important way to communicate knowledge. How much paper do you use every year? Probably you cannot answer that question quickly. In 1900 the world's use of paper was about one kilogram for each person a year. Now some countries use as much as 50 kilograms of paper for each person a year. Countries like the United States, England and Sweden use more paper thanother countries.Paper, like many other things that we use today, was first made in China. In Egypt and the West, paper was not very commonly used before the year 1400. The Egyptians wrote on a kind of material made of a water plant. Europeans used parchment for many hundreds of years. Parchment was very strong; it was made fromthe skin of certain young animals. We have learnt of the most important facts of European history from records that were kept on parchment.(1)、What's the meaning for the word 'parchment'? ________A:The skin of young animals.B:A kind of paper made from the skin of certain young animals.C:The paper used by European countries.D:The paper of Egypt.答案: B评析:空(2)、Which of the following is not mentioned about the invention of paper? ________ A:More jobs could be provided than before.B:More people could be educated than before.C:More books could be printed and distributed.D:More ways could be used to exchange knowledge.答案: A评析:此题没有评析(3)、When did the Egyptians begin to use paper widely? ________A:Around 1400.B:Around 1900.C:Around 400.D:Around 900.答案: A评析:此题没有评析(4)、Which of the following countries uses more paper for each person a year?________A:China.B:Sweden.C:Egypt.D:Japan.答案: B评析:此题没有评析(5)、What is the main idea of this short talk? ________A:More and more paper is being consumed nowadays.B:Paper enables people to receive education more easily.C:The invention of paper is of great significance to man.D:Paper contributes a lot to the keeping of historical records.答案: C评析:此题没有评析三、词汇与语法1、Tom is so talkative.

让应试教育尽快见鬼去吧……Passage 1No one is glad to hear that his body has to be cut open by a surgeon(外科医生)and part of it taken out.Today,however,we needn't worry about feeling pain during the operation.The sick person falls into a kind of sleep,and when he awakes,the operation is finished.But these happy conditions are fairly new.It is not many years since a man who had to have operation felt all its pain.Long ago,operation had usually to be done while the sick man could feel everything.The sick man had to be held down on a table by force while the doctors did their best for him.He could feel all the pain if his leg or arm was being cut off,and his fearful cries filled the room and the hearts of those who watched.Soon after 1770,Josept Priestley discovered a gas which is now called “laughing gas”.Laughing gas became known in America.Y oung men and women went to parties to try it.Most of them spent their time laughing,but one man at a party,Horace Wells,noticed that people didn't seem to feel pain when they were using this gas.He decided to make an experiment on himself.He asked a friend to help him.Wells took some of the gas,and his friend pulled out one of Well's teeth.Wells felt no pain at all.As he didn't know enough about laughing gas,he gave a man less gas than he should have.The man cried out with pain when his tooth was being pulled out.Wells tried again,but this time he gave too much of the gas,and the man died.Wells never forgot this terrible event.1.It is ____since a man being operated felt all the pain.A.a few more years B.not longC.few years D.two thousand years2.Long ago,when the sick man was operated on,he ____.A.could feel nothing B.could not want anythingC.could feel all the pain D.could do anything3.Using the laughing gas,the people did not seem to ____.A.be afraid of anything B.feel painC.want to go to the parties D.be ill4.If a man took less laughing gas than he should have when an operation went on, he __.A.felt nothing B.felt very comfortable(舒服的)C.still felt pain D.would die5.One who took too much of the laughing gas ___.A.would laugh all the time B.would dieC.would never feel pain D.would be very calm参考答案:CBCBPassage 2Modern zoos are very different from zoos that were built fifty years ago. At that time, zoos were places where people could go to see animals from many parts of the world. The animals lived in cages that were made of concrete (混凝土) with iron bars, cages that were easy to keep clean. Unfortunately for animals, the cages were small and impossible to hide in. The zoo environment was anything but natural. Although the zoo keepers took good care of the animals and fed them well, many of the animals did not thrive (茁壮成长) ; They behaved in strange ways, and they often became ill. In modern zoos, people can see animals in more natural habitats (家园).The animal was given more freedom in large areas so that they can live as they would in nature. Even the appearance of zoos has changed. Trees and grass grow in the cages, and streams of water flow through the areas that the animals live in. There are few bars; there is often only a deep ditch (沟渠), filled with water, surrounding an area where several species of animals live together as they would naturally.注:本段文字很方便设计完形填空题目,可以让学生认真阅读熟悉其内容。
