Even thousands of years ago, groups of people gathered to watch skilled athletes(运动员).Over 2,000 years ago in Greece, some days in the year were festival days. These were holidays when people stopped their work and enjoyed themselves. During festivals, people liked to watch athletes take part in races and other games.The most important festival was held every four years at the town of Olympia. It was held in honor of the Greek god Zeus. For five days, athletes from all corners of Greece took part in the Olympic Games.At the Olympic Games, people could watch athletes run, jump and so on. They could also watch exciting races, which included a relay race between two teams in which a lighted torch(火炬) was passed from runner to runner.The Olympic Games were thought to be so important that cities throughout Greece which were at war with one another had to stop fighting. During the time, people were allowed to travel to the Games safely.Thousands of people came to the Olympic Games from cities in Greece and from its colonies(殖民地) in Africa, Asia, and Italy. They met as friends to cheer their favorite athletes and to enjoy themselves.1. What did people do at the Olympic Games?A. They fought for their freedom.B. They just talked to friends.C.

What was the Olympic in the ancient.C. what People did in the Olympic.D. When and where the Olympic startedBOne day a student went to see his teacher. He had been given an important position and now was coming to say goodbye to his teacher. The old man asked him how he would live among high officials. The student answered, “ I will be all right. I have prepared a hundred high hats, one for each official I will meet. I am sure I will succeed.” The teacher got angry on hearing this. “What?” he cried. “Is this what ten years of my teaching has made of you? Nothing but flatterer(拍马屁的人)?” “Excuse me, honored(尊敬的) master,” the student rose to his feet andapologized hurriedly. “But you have always been absorbed in your studies and don’t kn ow how vulgar(庸俗的) the world has come to be. There are few men in the world who are above flatterers like you.” “There is something true in what you said,” the teacher nodded, smiling with one of the student’s “high hats” on.6.

Radio announcers give the correct time during the day. People there think that it is important to know the time. Most Americans have watches. They want to do certain things at certain times. They do not want to be late.Not all people all over the world value time. Suppose you visit a certain country in South America. You would find that people living there do not like to rush. If you had an appointment （约会）with someone, he would probably be late. He would not care for arriving on time. In some countries in South America, even the radio programs may not begin right on time, nor do the radio announcers think it important to announce the right time. Many people regard a clock as a machine. It seems to them that a person who does everything on time is controlled（控制）by a machine. They do not want a clock or any machine to have that much power over their lives.11. There are clocks in most stores in the US cities because ______.A. people in the stores want to sell these clocksB. bosses want to make their stores beautifulC. people think it important to know the timeD. they needn't wear watches when they are away from home12. The underlined word "rush" in the passage most probably means ______.A. “run”B. “race”C. “hurry”D. “move”13. If you had an appointment with someone in some place in South America, he might not arrive on time, and this is because ______.A. he didn't have a watch with himB. he forgot to have a look at a watch or a clockC. he didn't think it important to arrive on timeD. he didn't like an appointment with someone14. In some countries in South America ______.A. the radio announcers do think it important to announce the exact timeB. the radio programs many start a bit early or lateC. many people think a clock has much powerD. most people do not want to be controlled by others15. From the passage we can see ______.A. most Americans like to have an appointment with othersB. radio announcers all over the world give the correct timeC. people in some countries in the South America are very poorD. people in the US value time more than those in some countries in South AmericaDHow the land has changed, not only down on the ground but from way out in space. There are many latest pictures produced by the sharp eyes of a government satellite known as Landsat 7. Darrel Williams works on the NASA Landsat 7 Project. “We can see the conditions sh ortly after the eruption, when just a huge area was totally deforested, burned off. Now, 15 years after the fact, we can see light, pinkish view, which says vegetation is growing back. It’s starting to reforest.” he says.Twenty-seven years of pictures have tracked the loss of rain forests in South America, as well as the clear-cutting of forests in the US Northwest.Darrel Williams says, “Clearcut areas show up quite readily, and it shows we need to look at what’s going on in our own backyard, as far as deforestation.”Landsat satellites have watched from space as glaciers have shrunk more than four miles over the past decade or so. This is a computer-animated view of Glacier Bay, Alaska, based on new pictures from Landsat 7.Floyd and Irene show the heavy deposits of silt and farm runoff in coastal waters.“And these show the increasing summer temperatures around Atlanta, Georgia”, scientists say, “ the condition is related to the loss of trees.”Darrel Williams says, “It’s the most unique record of its type. It’s like having a family photo album of anywhere on the globe. And if you don’t think you’ve changed over time, just look at your pictures of the last 20 to 25 years.”Now, as Landsat 7 begins its work as the last in a series of earth observers, NASA readies an even more sophisticated satellite, Terra, due to be launched Thursday. Once it’s working, Terra is expected to take the vital signs of the globe, including ocean temperatures, energy loss, and even the state of the atmosphere, every day.16. Which of the following statements about the changes that Landsat 7 shows is NOT true?A. Changes are shown by a government satellite called Landsat 7.B. Land has changed on the ground and in space.C. An eruption caused only a small part of the forest to lose all of its trees.D. Vegetation is finally growing again after fifteen years.17. The effect of clear-cutting and loss of rain forests is that ______________.A. for twenty-seven years, pictures have been taken from groundB. rain forests have been lost in South AmericaC. northwest forests in Atlanta have been clear-cutD. the US needn’t look at deforestation18. What does the underlined word “sophisticated” in the last paragraph mean?A. Easy.B. Complicated.C. Expressive.D. Important.19. Terra is expected to take the vital signs of the globe, not including ______________.A. ocean temperaturesB. the state of the atmosphereC. energy lossD. having a family photo album20. Which of the reasons is mainly related to the increasing summer temperature around Atlanta, Georgia?A. Loss of trees has caused hotter weather in the south.B. Hurricanes Floyd and Irene have damaged the North Carolina coast.C. Farm run-off and silt have gone into the ocean.D. Glaciers in Alaska have shrunk four miles in the past ten years.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项是多余选项。

This process sharpens theirability to think critically, an essential skill for problem-solving and decision-making. Lastly, reading provides a window to different cultures and perspectives.

You may use your own experiences or examples from others to illustrate your point.Example Essay:In today’s fast-paced world, perseverance often serves as the key to unlocking the door to success. Achieving goals, whether academic,professional, or personal, requires unwavering dedication and resilience.I personally have witnessed the power of perseverance in my journey to mastera foreign language. Initially, the task seemed daunting, with its complexgrammar rules and vast vocabulary. However, through consistent effort and perseverance, I gradually overcame these challenges. Each day, I dedicated myself to reading, listening, and speaking, never giving up despite the difficulties. Over time, my efforts paid off, and I found myself fluent in the language.This experience taught me that perseverance is not just about enduring hardship; it’s about turning challenges into opportunities. It’s about believing in oneself, even when the going gets tough. In conclusion, perseverance is a vital trait for anyone aspiring to achieve their goals, as it transforms dreams into realities.(Note: This is a sample essay to illustrate the structure and content of the writing task. Students should write their own essays based on their own experiences and insights.)。

高一英语人教新课标必修一上学期期中考试试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共10小题，共25.0分）AThe boss of a big company needed to call one of his employees abouta serious problem with one of the main computers．He dialed the employee's home phone number and was greeted with a child's whisper，"Hello？" The boss asked， "Is your daddy at home？" "Yes，" whispered the small voice．"May I talk with him？" the man asked．To the surprise of the boss， the small voicewhispered， "No．"Wanting to talk with an adult， the boss asked， "Is your mommy there？" "Yes，" came the answer． "May I talk with her？" Again the small voice whispered， "No．"Knowing that it was impossible that a young child would be left home alone， the boss decided he would just leave a message to the person who should be there watching over the child． "Is there anyone besides you？" the boss asked the child． "Yes，" whispered the child， "A policeman．"Wondering what a policeman would be doing at his employee's home， the boss asked， "May I speak with the policeman？""No， he's busy，" whispered the child． "Busy doing what？" asked the boss．"Talking to daddy and mommy and the fireman，" came the whispered answer．Growing concerned and even worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter（直升机）through the earpiece on the phone， the boss asked， "What is the noise？" "A helicopter．" answered the whispered voice． "What is going on there？" asked the boss，now alarmed．In a serious whispering voice the child answered， "The search team just landed the helicopter．" Alarmed and concerned and more than just a little disappointed， the boss asked， "Why are they there？" Still whispering， the young voice replied along with an unclear giggly（窃笑）， "They are looking for me．"1.

They must watch TV with their children．B. They should stop the children from watching TV．C. They should pay attention to nutrition in diets．D. They can't do what they don't want their children to do．CHuman beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more than two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone against another. Inthis way, they broke off pieces from one ofthe stones. These chips of stone were usually sharp on one side. People used them for cutting meat and skin from dead animals, and also for making other tools out of wood. Human beings needed to use tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily.Working with tools also helped to develop human intelligence. The human brain grew bigger, and human beings began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the first tools that people used, and perhaps it is the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key to success of mankind.Since 1960 a new kind of tool has appeared. This is the silicon chip (硅芯片). It is smaller than a finger nail, but it can store lots of information. It is an electronic brain. Every year these chips get cleverer, but their size gets smaller, and their cost gets less. They are used in watches, calculators and intelligent machines that we can use in many ways. In the future we will not need to work with tools in the old way. Machines will do everything for us. People will have plenty of spare time. But what will they do with it?Human beings used stone chips for more than two million years, but human life changed very little in that time. We have used silicon chips for only a few years, but life is changing faster every day. What will life be like twenty years from now? What will the world be like two million years from now?7. From paragraph 1, we can know ________.A. why early human beings cut skin from dead animalsB. how early human beings discovered the toolsC. what early human beings used the tools forD. what food early human beings stored8. The stone chip is thought to be the most important tool because it ________.A. was very important to the development of mankindB. led to the invention of machines in the early timeC. developed cooking abilities of mankindD. was one of the first tools of mankind9. The silicon chip is mentioned in the passage to ________.A. show the changes of toolsB. introduce a new kind of toolC. give an example of using toolsD. compare the effects of two kinds of tools10. At the end of the passage the author seems to suggest that life in future is ________.A. out of orderB. less colorfulC. hard to predictD. full of meanings二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Sometimes even though you're paying attention in class， studying for tests， and doing your homework， certain classes seem toohard． Although you may hope that things will get easier， most of the time this doesn't happen．What does happen for many people is that they work hard as they fall further behind．___11___If you need extra help， the most important thing to know is that there's noghint embarrassing about it． No one is expected to understand everything， and people have very different learning styles．___12___He or she may be able to work with you before or after school and explain things more clearly． But what if you don't feelcomfortable with your teacher？ If so，you can speak to other teachers directly．___13___You might also be able to get some help from other students． If there's a good student， think about asking that person if you can study together．___14___However，keep in mind that this might not get you the results you need．Another option for extra help is a tutor， either on weekends， or in the evenings．You'll need to tell your parents about this because it costs money to hire a tutor． Tutors sometimes come to your home， but there are also tutoring centers across the country．___15___Tutors help review and further explain things taught in the classroom． The advantage of having a tutor is that it gives you the opportunity to ask questions directly and work at your own pace．A．Naturally， this makes them hate a class and everything to do with it．B．Working hard means you can succeed．C．The first place to turn for help is your teacher．D．This might help because you'll hear the information from your peers．E．However， you may be refused in most cases as no one wants to help you．F．Sometimes it just helps to have someone new explain something in a different way．G．A tutor may have broad knowledge of many things or may be trained in just one subject．then， I remembered the____33____woman． I ran as fast as I could until I finally crossed that finish line． I had just____34____my first race!

The widespread availability of the Bible and other religious texts led to a significant increase in religious literacy among the common people.The printing press also had a profound impact on the spread of science andtechnology. It allowed scientists to share their discoveries more quickly and widely, which accelerated the pace of innovation. The printing press was instrumental in the Renaissance, a period of great cultural and intellectual growth in Europe.1、What was the main impact of Johannes Gutenberg’s invention of the printing press?A、It increased the cost of book production.B、It made books more expensive for the general public.C、It significantly changed the way books were produced and distributed.D、It decreased the literacy rate among the common people.答案：C2、How did the printing press affect the production of books?A、It made books more difficult to produce.B、It required more manual labor to produce books.C、It allowed for the mass production of books.D、It made books more expensive to produce.答案：C3、Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a consequence of the printing press?A、An increase in religious literacy.B、The spread of science and technology.C、The decline of the Renaissance.D、A faster pace of innovation.答案：C4、What was the first book printed using Johannes Gutenberg’s printing press?A、The QuranB、The Declaration of IndependenceC、The Gutenberg BibleD、The Magna Carta答案：C第四题Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.The Rise of Social MediaIn the last decade, social media has become an integral part of our daily lives.

The killer storm carried winds of 135 miles per hour. The high winds and heavy rains, together with the force of the Atlantic Ocean, created extremely dangerouswaves. It is not yet known how many people died or were hurt in this storm, but it is said that the numbers will be very high. The damage to homes, business and crops will run into billions of dollars. Now that the storm is over, the long, slow rebuilding will begin.With the arrival of the tornado season,the National Weather Service is again telling people how to protect themselves from these deadly storms. The winds from tornadoes are the most violent winds on earth. They can blow up to 400 miles per hour. A tornado looks like a funnel（漏斗）. It is also very loud. It may sound like a train coming at you. In fact, the winds from a tornado can pick up a train and throw it around. If a tornado is seen in your area, it is very important that you protect yourself. A basement （地下室） is the safest place to go. Try to wait under a table in the basement. If your building does not have a basement, stay on the ground floor but lie flat under a bed or table. Stay away from windows. If you are outside or in your car, try to find a narrow place to lie down in.As the area tries to deal with the worst flood of the century, there are many heartwarming stories of people helping other people. From all over the world people have sent food and clothes to help the thousands who have had to leave their homes. Many volunteers have come to help to make sandbags and use them to build walls against the overflowing river. While the result of this disaster will be terrible for many, it is beautiful to see people coming together to help others and save lives, and property （财产）.56.

Until that time, scientists had mostly observed and studied chimpanzees in laboratories and zoos. Few scientists had gone to study chimpanzees in the remote areas of Africa where the chimps live. When scientists had studied the chimpanzees in the wild, they hadn't spent long periods of time observing them. Jane Goodall planned to watch chimpanzees in Africa over a ten-year period and see exactly how they behaved. She was not a professional scientist when she started out. Her book, "In the Shadow of Man", tells how she began her project and what shediscovered.As Goodall said in 1973, "I had no qualifications at all. I was just somebody with a love of animals". Her love of animals drew her to Africa where she met Dr. Louis S. B. Leakey. Leakey was a world-famous scientist who was studying how prehistoric people lived. Since chimpanzees are humans' closest living relatives, Leakey thought prehistoric people might have lived in the same ways that chimpanzees live today. Leakey told Goodall that studying chimpanzees might give clues about the way that early people lived.Leakey asked Goodall to study the chimpanzees on the shores of Lake Tanganyika in Africa. The chimpanzees were very shy and the country was very difficult to travel through. Goodall took on the difficult job of finding and watching the chimpanzees.61. Jane Goodall decided to study chimpanzees __ .A. because she was working in a laboratoryB. when she was doing research for a bookC. because of her scientific work in EnglandD. out of her love for animals62. Jane Goodall was different from other people who had studied chimpanzees because she ________ .A. was a professional scientist and had been trained by Dr. LeakeyB. observed the animal both in the wild and in laboratories and zoosC. observed chimpanzees in their natural surroundings over a long period of timeD. was more qualified than most other scientists63. The word closest in meaning to "remote" is ___ .A. famousB. suitableC. criticalD. distant64. According to the information, finding chimpanzees in Africa would be a difficult task for Jane because _________ .A. the animals would stay away from humansB. the chimpanzees may not remain in the area for ten years.C. Jane would have to identify areas where prehistoric people had lived.D. Dr. Leakey was not aware of the conditions in which the chimpanzees lived.65. The title of Jane Goodall's book _____ .A. reflects Jane's passion for her workB. hints at the difficulties that Jane facedC. emphasized the link between chimps and mankindD. indicates her experience mirrored that of other scientistsCBEIJING, Sunday, March 5，2006—China's new "historic task" is to narrow the gap between rich and poor and improve the economy of the country's vast but still poor rural areas, Prime Minister Wen Jiabao said in a national address Sunday morning.Wen said officials must find a way to make sure that the two-thirds of China's 1.3 billion people who live in rural areas share the quick economic growth that has mostly taken place in urban regions."We need to see clearly that there are many hardships and problems in economic and social life," he said in the televised address before the National People's Congress. Some deeply seated problems that have built up over a long time have yet to be solved, and new problems have occurred that cannot be ignore忽视）."Wen focused a large section of his speech on the recently announced effort to build a "new socialist countryside", in which the central government has promised to spend more on agricultural and rural basic construction and social services for the country's 800 million farmers and rural residents.He said the government had decided to put US$42.3 billon in such spending this year, an increase of 14.2 per cent over 2005. That rate of growth is not particularly high fora country that recorded 9.9 per cent economic growth last year.66.

"Are they South Americans?""All I know about them so far is what Officer Tall told me before he went off duty," said Sergeant Zupp. "He understands Spanish and that's what they speak, though they seem to know some English. From what he heard by chance, two of them are brothers named Malo, and the other is called Bueno.""I've heard of the Malo brothers," said the Inspector."I don't know which two are the brothers," continued the Sergeant, "but Officer Tall told me he'd heard the Malos agree not to give a truthful answer to any question we asked. Bueno said it was hopeless and he was going to tell the truth. I guess the Malos are going to be out to confuse us."The Inspector had the men brought in. He asked the bald one whether his name was Bueno or Malo. The man mumbled a reply and before the Inspector could repeat the question, the others answered."He says his name is Bueno," volunteered the thin one."He says his name is Malo," said the fat one.The Inspector turned to Sergeant Zupp. "They're clearly keeping to their plan about who is telling the truth and who is lying. Take the brothers back to their cell and leave Bueno here with me."Which one was Bueno, the thin one, the fat one or the bald one?71. Who knows Spanish?A. The Inspector.B. Sergeant Zupp.C.

But in skipping and canceling some of his scheduled appearances at the Nobel festivities, he unintentionally offended many Scandinavians.Most Nobel winners, for instance, sit for a lunch with the Norwegian King Harald V. Obama skipped it. Winners are also asked to take part in a press conference, enjoy a concert, and appear at a children’s event. Obama also reportedly passed up on these events.“In Norwegian culture, it’s very important to keep an agreement,” Norwegian public-relations expert Rune Morck-Wergeland told The Daily website. “We’re religious about that, and Obama’s actions have been clumsy. You just don’t say no to an invitation from a European king. Maybe Obama’s advisers are not very educated about European culture, but he’s coming off as rude, even if he doesn’t mean to.”A headline in the Norwegian daily Aftenposten called Obama “a bit arrogant（傲慢的）—a bit bad”. The daily tabloid VG reported that 44 percent of Norwegians polled considered Obama’s skipping lunch with the king “rude”, though 34 percent said it was ac ceptable.The Nobel Prize committee, meanwhile, cut Obama some slack. He is, after all, a sitting president with two wars and an economic recession（经济衰退）to worry about. “We always knew that there were too many events in the program,” Geir Lundestad, secret ary of the committee, told the Guardian. “Obama has to govern the US and we were told early on that he could not commit to all of them.”61. Obama went to Norway in order to________.A. accept his Nobel PrizeB. have lunch with the Norwegian KingC. take part in a press conferenceD. enjoy a concert62. Who considered Obama’s behavior rude?A. The Norwegian King Harald V.B. Norwegian public-relations expert Rune Morck-Wergeland.C. Most of Norwegians.D. Geir Lundestad, secretary of the The Nobel Prize committee.63. Which of the following is true according to what Rune Morck-Wergeland said?A. Norwegians take agreements very seriously.B. One can never say no to a European king.C. Obama’s advisers are uneducated.D. Obama is forgivable because he does n’t mean to be rude.64. Obama skipped the lunch with the King because.A. he wasn’t invitedB. he didn’t respect the Norwegian cultureC. he was very arrogantD. he was too busy and had a lot to worry about65. What does the underlined phrase “cut Obama some slack” mean?A. The committee was very angry with Obama.B. The committee reduced some events for Obama.C. The committee was less strict with Obama.D.

My good friend is Diana . she is a rich and proud girl . She often thinks that she is too good for anyone, so nobody wants to be her friend.One day after school, I was waiting for Diana when Vivien came up to me. She gave me a biscuit. I accepted it. We talked and joked, and from then on, I began to spend more time with Vivien than with Diana. I felt a little uneasy.After a few days, I went to see Diana for some snacks when Vivien came and sat with me. She offered me a sandwich. She also offered one to Diana, but Diana refused it. She walked away. I was angry with Diana for being so rude and thoughtless."Never mind," Vivien said, "I'm used to it."After school, I tried to catch up With Diana. While walking home, I tried to correct her attitude, but she would not listen to me. She said, "Go and join your 'dear' Vivien. I know you make new friends and forget the old ones."For the next few weeks, we did not talk to each other. Then, one day, Diana came to Vivien and me, saying, "I'm really sorry about what I did. I'm a spoiled (宠坏的) girl, but I also need good friends just like you. Would you please forgive (原谅) me?" Vivien and I looked at each other and smiled. From then on, Diana, Vivien and I have been best friends.1. The writer was angry with Diana ______.A. because she was too good for anyoneB. so Diana walked awayC. though she asked the writer to forgiveD. when Diana refused Vivien's sandwich2. According to the passage, it is clear that ______.A. Diana didn't like sandwichesB. Diana and the writer had been good friendsC. Vivien didn't want to make new friends at allD. the writer forgot her old friends after she had new ones3. Vivien's saying "I'm used to it" shows that ______.A. she liked to be refusedB. Vivien used to be rude to othersC. someone refused to give her thingsD. some people were rude to her before4. Diana asked Vivien and the writer to forgive because ______.A. she realized she was wrongB. they didn't spend much time with herC.

The reading is mainly about ______.A. the mistake among the three friendsB. three friends at a schoolC. two best friends at a schoolD. the trouble between Diana and VivienBWelcome to Death Valley. The very name of this national park in eastern California might fill some people with dread, but you’re not afraid. You’re just out enjoying the desert sunshine. Besides, there’s nothing out here but some rocks.Some of the rocks in Death Valley weigh hundreds of pounds. And in the ground behind each rock is a mysterious trail (痕迹), as if the rock had been pushed along in the dirt.So who is moving the rocks? Nobody. It was nearly 100 years ago when these unusual “sailing stones” were first reported. People have been trying to find out the stones’ secret ever since. One early explanation was that winds were moving the stones. Other explanations have included animals, and, of course, aliens (外星人).Until the 1990s, one widely held theory was that the rocks were stuck in sheets (片) of ice that were being blown across the desert. (Death Valley does get cold enough for ice to form on some winter nights.) However, research later showed that to move such large ice sheets, the wind would have to blow at hundreds of miles per hour. There are strong winds in Death Valley — but not that strong.Then, in 2006, a scientist named Ralph Lorenz came up with a new theory. He suggested that in the winter, thick ice forms around the rocks. When the ground begins to thaw (解冻), the rocks, wearing ice, sail along, leaving trails behind them. Lorenz put his theory to the test in his own kitchen. He dropped a rock into a dish, added a little water, and stuck the dish in his fridge. Later, he took out the rock and placed it in a dish of water with sand at the bottom. Sure enough, with just a breath, Lorenz was able to send the rock moving across the water —leaving a trail in the sand as it moved.Has Lorenz solved the mystery of the sailing stones at last? Perhaps. On the other hand, neither Lorenz nor anyone else has ever actually seen the stones move. Maybe aliens are responsible after all.6. The underlined word “dread” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_____”.A. angerB. fearC. surpriseD. excitement7. According to the theory in the late 20th century, the rocks were probably moved by _____.A. the iceB. animalsC. aliensD. the wind8. What did Ralph Lorenz find?A. Water helped the rocks in Death Valley move.B. The rocks in Death Valley couldn’t move by themselves.C. Death Valley could get cold enough for ice to form.D. The wind in Death Valley could reach a speed of 100 mph.CHow do young children learn to have good values? How can parents teach their children about the importance of kindness and patience? At a time when more and more parents worry about the violent images (暴力形象) their children see on TV, some are turning to fairy tales (童话).It is believed that fairy tales have a great influence on children because they describe the two sides of good and evil (邪恶) very clearly. When children hear the stories, they learn to care about others' feelings. In each tale, they can see that there are many different kinds of people in the world and that we all have a choice about what kind of person we want to be. We can choose to do good actions, rather than bad ones, in our lives.What kind of values can children learn from fairy tales? In The Princess and the Pea (《豌豆公主》), a poorly dressed girl, who insists she is a princess, is given a difficult test by the Queen. When she passes the test, we learn that her dream comes true because she stays true to herself. In The Little Mermaid (《小美人鱼》), the mermaid, who lives under the sea, wishes to be with the humans on land. Through her experiences, we learn about the importance of living with and accepting other cultures. In Pinocchio, a wooden puppet (木偶) turns into a boy when he finally learns how to tell the truth.Teaching values is the reason most often given for encouraging children to read stories. These fairy tales can teach children lessons about human relationships that are accepted around the world for many centuries. This might be the reason why they have been around for so long and will not disappear any time soon.9. Why do fairy tales have a great influence on children?A. Fairy tales can teach them how to make a choice.B. Fairy tales can help them get higher scores at school.C. Good and evil are shown in a way they can easily understand.D. They can learn how to avoid most difficulties in their lives.10. The Little Mermaid may be helpful when children _____.A. are given a difficult testB. are going to lie to their parentsC. wish to be a princess or princeD. make friends with foreigners11. The author writes the text mainly to _____.A. introduce some fairy talesB. show how fairy tales help children shape valuesC. discuss how to improve human relationshipsD. talk about the history of fairy talesDSequoyah was born in the 1770s and grew up in the Cherokee village of Tuskeegee, Tennessee. He was skilled at working with silver jewelry (首饰). One day Sequoyah was advised to put his name on the silver jewelry he made. However, he could not write his name because Cherokee was only a spoken language. Sequoyah decided to learn how to write his name, so he asked one of his customers (顾客) to teach him, who knew English very well. From that time on, Sequoyah signed (签名) his work in English.Then Sequoyah realized that a written language was necessary for his people. In 1809, he started by making small drawings, and then he experimented with creating a letter for each sound in the Cherokee language. First, Sequoyah picked out all the sounds in the Cherokee language. Then he gave each sound a symbol. Unlike English, however, no two sounds shared the same symbol.Sequoyah's work was difficult and took him a lot of time. Worse, those around Sequoyah didn't understand what he was doing with all those strange symbols. Some raised doubts about his work. However, Sequoyah didn't stop working. In 1821, Sequoyah completed his alphabet (字母表). Each symbol in the alphabet symbolized one of the eighty-five sounds in the Cherokee language. By saying the name of each symbol, a person could read the spoken word.Sequoyah taught the symbols to his six-year-old daughter, Ayoka. One day, they went to visit the elders of the Cherokee Nation. Sequoyah asked Ayoka to leave while he wrote down what the elders said. When Ayoka returned, she read out loud what Sequoyah had written. The elders were stunned. Ayoka was able to repeat their words without being present! Sequoyah's alphabet was soon accepted as the written language of the Cherokee Nation.12. Sequoyah learned to sign his work _____.A. so that he would become famousB. when he moved to a Cherokee villageC. with the help of one of his customersD. in order to save the Cherokee language13. What can we learn about Sequoyah's alphabet?A. It was the same as the English alphabet at first.B. It uses at least two letters to symbolize a sound.C. It was created in the early eighteenth century.D. It is made up of eighty-five letters.14. The underlined wo rd “stunned” in the last paragraph probably means “_____”.A. surprisedB. thankfulC. regretfulD. worried15. What would be the best title for the text?A. The Cherokee NationB. A gift beyond priceC. A popular languageD.

Here are some easy ways for you to impress your classmates or teachers.● 16Before you shake hands with somebody, make sure that your hands are clean. The handshake should not be too strong or weak. Most people use their right hands, unless they have a reason to use the left. 17● Be on timeWhen meeting someone for the first time, arriving on time is as important as breathing. You may have an excuse, but that will leave the person who hardly knows you with a bad impression. 18 It’s better to be hanging around the place than be stuck in traffic.● Introduce yourself and ask for namesMake sure you properly introduce yourself. Ask for their name in a polite way. 19 This will increase the chances of their remembering your name in the future. Always remember to stand up w hen greeting someone and be sure to introduce them to anyone you’re with.● Make good conversationTo get the most out of your discussion, try to find something common between the two of you. 20 A person will feel more comfortable with someone they can relate to (产生共鸣).A.

However, don’t have your left hand in your pocket because this appears impolite.E. Use body languageF. Repeat the name and use it later in conversation.G. As a general rule, plan to arrive about 30 minutes early.第二部分：语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）Each of us has goals (目标) for life. Some of these may be long-term (长期的)or 21 lifetime ones, and other dreams or wishes for more immediate satisfaction.Just as you 22 great pleasure when you’re trying to 23 short-term goals, there’s also power in having long-term and lifetime goals. Both 24 are valuable and serve each other. In order to be 25 in achieving a short- or long-term wish or goal, you must place your focus on the 26 result and train your mind on either a moment-to-moment, day-to-day,month-to-month, or year-to-year level.For example, 27 a farmer is to plow (耕地) a straight line, he must keep his eye on a faraway point. If his attention is 28 just a few feet in front of him, he will not plow straight.
