In reality, people today are 11 than ever before and getting the whole family together for an evening meal is often 12 , as all members of the family have their own activities to get on with. For most of us, sitting down together at the 13 table is a thing of the past, but what effect does this have on family members and the relationships between them?One of the most important 14 of eating together as a family is that the family has a chance to communicate 15 with one another in a social environment. Many families 16 that the evening meal is the be st time to discuss problems and share experiences. “Eating together makes us feel 17 , and we often have our most useful conversations at these times,” says Jane Digby, mother of three. So, although organizing a family meal everyday can be a(n) 18 , it can benefit family relationships.In addition, family meals help to improve children‟s19 skills. They learn how to talk, how to listen and how to show consideration for other 20 in the conversation. Furthermore, eating together gives 21 a sense of security. Family psychotherapist (心理治疗专家) Sue Taylor believes that children who eat with their 22 are far more confident as well as much more faithful to their families than children who don‟t.In spite of the many advantages of eating together, the 23 of modern life make it almost impossible for many people to do so. However, Sue Taylor insists that we should try to make 24 for family meals. “Mealtimes are the most valuable time a family can spend together,” she says. “If you can‟t eat together every day, why not25 and eat together three or four times a week? It really is worth the effort.”11. A. smarter B. busier C. luckier D. happier12. A. convenient B. necessary C. impossible D. important13. A. corner B. dinner C. window D. problems14. A. advantages B. challenges C. adventures D. problems15. A. slowly B. calmly C. instantly D. regularly16 A. doubt B. worry C. find D. hope17. A. relaxed B. close C. special D. tired18.

During the flight, passengers _______.A. have to keep their seat belt fastened all the timeB. can read all kinds of newspapers and booksC. can listen to music, watch video or use mobile phonesD. may have beer, wine or other drinks for free2. The purpose of the passage is to _______.A. teach the passengers how to use the seat beltsB. tell the passengers what kind of entertainment they can enjoy during their flightC. encourage the passengers to give comments on the serviceD. introduce the good service of the Finnair and attract more passengers3. You may find this passage in _______.A. a newspaperB. a bookC. a magazineD. an official documentBDown went the drills! Up went the hopes of Darby and Uncle! Then something happened! The vein (矿脉) of gold ore (矿石) disappeared! The pot of gold was no longer there! They drilled on, desperately trying to pick up the vein again, but they found nothing.Finally, they decided to quit. They sold the machinery to a man for a few hundred dollars, and 揭阳市2014-2015学年度高中二年级学业水平考试英语试题第2页（共10页）took the train back home. That man asked a mining engineer to look at the mine and do a little calculating. The engineer said that the project had failed because the owners were not familiar with ―fault lines (裂纹线)‖. His calcula tions showed that the vein would be found just three feet from where the Darbys had stopped drilling! That is exactly where it was found.The man took millions of dollars in ore from the mine, because he knew enough to ask for expert advice before giving up.R. U. Darby was struggling for years to pay back the money from his relatives and neighbors. He went into the business of selling life insurance.Remembering that he lost a huge fortune because he stopped three feet from gold, Darby profited from the experience in his chosen work, by the simple method of saying to himself, ―I stopped three feet from gold, but I will never stop because men say ‗no‘ when I ask them to buy insurance.‖Darby is part of a small group of fewer than 50 men who sell more than a million dollars in life insuranc e every year. His ―stickability‖ comes from the lesson he learned from his ―quitability‖ in the gold mining business.4. Darby and his uncle stopped digging for gold because ______.A. they didn‘t have the machinery to dig for the oreB. they didn‘t have enough money to manage the mineC. they had tried to find the vein of gold again, but in vainD. they had already gotten lots of gold from the ore and made big profits5. What was a good quality of the man who worked on the mine after Darby and his uncle?A. He knew the machinery well.B. He knew the importance of seeking expert advice.C. He had very strong stickability and never gave up.D. He was good at calculations and familiar with fault lines.6. What happened to Darby in the end?A. He became a very successful businessman.B. He worked as an ordinary salesman selling life insurance.C. He lived an easy life with all the money he had earned from the gold.D. He struggled for the rest of his life to pay back the money he had borrowed.7. What is the main message that the author intends to convey with the story?揭阳市2014-2015学年度高中二年级学业水平考试英语试题第3页（共10页）A. One is never too old to start a new career.B. Never give up and you will succeed eventually.C. It is important to have knowledge about everything.D. Don‘t hesitate to ask for help when you are in need.CImagine a stranger walking past you on a cold, rainy day. ―Lovely weather, isn‘t it?‖ the stranger says. Do you laugh, or even smile? If not, you may not have a dry sense of humor.British people, and particularly the English, are well-known for our dry sense of humor. We often say the opposite of what we mean in order to be funny, and tell jokes in a tone of voice that makes it sound like we are being completely serious. As US writer Julian Tan put it on the HuffPost Students blog: ―It is as if it is ‗Opposite Day‘ every day in Britain.‖If the people of Britain are known for having a ―stiff upper lip‖ and not showing emo tion, then our dry sense of humor shows this through jokes. Often it will take a long time or several beers, to get a British person to tell you what they actually think about something and get behind the wall of humorous sarcasm (讽刺) that they have in front of them.English comedian Ricky Gervais put it like this: ―We play jokes on our friends. We use sarcasm as a shield (护盾) and a weapon. We avoid being serious until it‘s absolutely necessary.‖It can be annoying and confusing if you haven‘t been raised with these types of jokes: ―Why did he just say such a ridiculous thing? Is he making fun of me?‖ But it is also true that understanding this type of humor is a good way to make friends with people in the UK, even if you don‘t find it funny.It‘s important to remember that the person telling the joke may actually be making fun of himself or herself, not you. One of the characteristics of British humor is ―its strong theme of self-deprecation‖ (making fun of oneself), according to Tan. So don‘t worry – often, English people, and British people in general, just want to make fun of themselves!8. According to the passage, we can know that someone with a dry sense of humor can ________.A. not use sarcasm as a shield and a weapon.B. not make friends with people in the UKC. pretend to play jokes on their friendsD. say funny things in a serious way9. Which of the following words best describes British humor according to Julian Tan?揭阳市2014-2015学年度高中二年级学业水平考试英语试题第4页（共10页）A. Opposite.B. Annoying.C. Ridiculous.D. Funny.10. The underlined phrase ―stiff upper lip‖ in Paragraph 3 refers to a quality of _________.A. remaining calmB. communicating feelingsC. taking a positive attitudeD. focusing attention11. The passage is mainly about __________.A. why British people like laughing at themselvesB. some tips on how to make British people laughC. the importance of humor in British cultureD. what British humor is likeDAfter moving to the United States, immigrant groups trying to fit in tend to choose high-calorie, fatty foods in an attempt to appear more American, a new study finds. That's one reason why immigrants approach U.S. levels of obesity within 15 years of moving to America.The researchers also did an experiment that measured whether or not the threat of appearing un-American influenced respondents' food choices．After being questioned about their ability to speak English, 75 percent of Asian-Americans identified a typical American food as their favorite. Only 25 percent of Asian-Americans who had not been asked if they spoke English did the same.When their American identity was called into question during a follow-up study, Asian-American participants also tended to choose typical American dishes, such as hamburgers and grilled cheese sandwiches, over more Asian fare. In that experiment, 55 Asian-Americans were asked to choose a meal from a local Asian or American restaurant. Some participants were told that only Americans could participate in the study. Those who chose the more typical American fare ended up consuming an extra 182 calories, including 12 grams of fat and seven grams of saturated fat(饱和脂肪)."People who feel like they need to prove they belong in a culture will change their habits in an attempt to fit in," said Sapna Cheryan, an author of the study and assistant professor of psychology at the University of Washington. "If immigrants and their children choose unhealthy American foods over healthier traditional foods across their lives, this process of fitting in could lead to poorer health," Cheryan added.Social pressures, the study concluded, are at the heart of the problem. ―In American society today, 揭阳市2014-2015学年度高中二年级学业水平考试英语试题第5页（共10页）being American is associated with being white. Americans who don't fit this image even if they were born here and speak English feel that pressure to prove that they're American,‖ said Cheryan.12. According to the survey, ________.A. Asia-Americans care less about their healthB. 25 percent of Americans like junk foodC. choosing food is related to Asian-American‘s situationD. immigrants are forced to eat junk food13. The underlined word ―fare‖ in Paragraph 3 most probably means ―________‖.A. food offered as a mealB. a person taking a taxiC. money spent on foodD. an arranged thing to do14. Sauna Cheryan thinks that ________.A. what immigrants have done is ridiculousB. American traditional foods are healthierC. immigrants risk their health in order to fit inD. American culture affects immigrants deeply15. Which of the following should take the blame for the bad eating habit?A. The situation of employment.B. The traditional culture.C. The American government.D. The pressures from society.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A wheelchair user may need help to enter .A. the HouseB. the gardenC. the Visitors’ CentreD. the exhibition hallBWhen the dog named Judy spotted the first sheep in her life, she did what comes naturally. The four-year-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and, being a city animal, lost both her sheep and her sense of direction. Then she ran along the edge of cliff( 悬崖) and fell 100 feet, bouncing off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden panicked and called the coastguard of Cornwall, who turned up in seconds . Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90-minute search.Three days later, a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall. Mr. Holden returned home from his holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead. He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the next two weeks, the Holdens were heartbroken . Then, one day, the phone rang and Steve Tregear, the coastguard of Cornwall, asked Holder if he would like his dog bark.A birdwatcher, armed with a telescope, found the pet sitting desperately on a rock. While he sounded the alarm, a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.The dog had initially been knocked unconscious(失去知觉的)but had survived by drinking waterfrom a fresh scream at the base of the cliff. She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge. “The dog was very thin and hungry,” Steve Tregear said , “It was a very dog. She survived because of a plentiful supply of fresh water,” he added.It was ,as Mr. Holden admitted, “a minor miracle(奇迹)”.4. The dog Jody fell down the cliff when she wasA. rescuing her ownerB. caught in a hurricaneC. blocked by a rockD. running after a sheep5. Who spotted Judy after the accident?A. A birdwatcherB.

Luck plays a vital role in Judy's survival.D. Holden cared little where Judy was buried.7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Miracle of the Coastguard.B. Surviving a Hurricane.C. Dangers in the WildD. Coming Back from the DeadCIn the mid-1950s, I was a somewhat bored early-adolescent male student who believed that doing any more than necessary was wasted effort. One day, this approach threw me into embarrassmentIn Mrs. Totten’s eighth-grade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson, Indiana, we were learning to add and subtract decimals (小数).Our teacher typically assigned daily homework, which would be recited in class the following day. On most days, our grades were based on our oral answer to homework questions.Mrs. Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had appeared on our homework sheets. She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work toward the other end.Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer. This particular time, I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate. As Mrs. Totten made her way from the beginning of the class，I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get. I tried to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and couldn’t function.When Mrs. Totten reached my desk，she asked what answer I’d got for problem No. 14. “I (I)didn’t get anything,” I answered，and my face felt warm.“Correct,” she said.It turned out that the correct answer was zero.What did I learn that day? First, always do all your homework. Second, in real life it isn’t always what you say but how you say it that matters. Third，I would never make it as a mathematician.If I could choose one school day that taught me the most, it would be that one.8. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 indicate?A．It is wise to value one’s time. B. It is important to make an effortC．It is right to stick to one’s belief. D. It is enough to do the necessary.9. Usually, Mrs. Totten asked her students to _______.A．recite their homework together B．grade their homework themselves C．answer their homework questions orally D．check the answers to their homework questions 10. The author could work out which questions to answer since the teacher always _______. A．asked questions in a regular way B. walked up and down when asking questions C．chose two or three questions for the studentsD．requested her students to finish their usual questions11.The author failed to get the questions he had expected because _______.A. the clas s didn’t begin as usualB. several students didn’t come to schoolC. he didn’t try hard to make his estimateD. Mrs. Totten didn’t start from the back of the classDThere are many places to go on safari（观赏野生动物）in Africa, but riding a horse throughthe flooded waters of Botswana's Okavango Delta must rank as one of the world's most exciting wildlife journeys.Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure, providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta. The camps have excellent horses, professional guides and lots of support workers. They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience.The morning ride, when the guides take you to beautiful, shallow lakes full of water lilies, tends to be more active. It is unlike any other riding experience. With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face. It is truly exciting. You are very likely to come across large wild animals, too. On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants, giraffes and many other animals. The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though, as does your heart rate, as you move closer to them.In the evening, rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace. With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink. Sedate though they are, rides at this time of day are still very impressive. As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses, the romance of Africa comes to life.Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine. Looking back on your day, you will find it hard to deny that a horseback Safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild.12.
