湖北省武汉市武钢三中2024-2025学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题一、阅读理解Short stories are amazing. You can get something useful out of them.The Bogey BeastFlora Annie SteelA woman finds a pot of treasure on the road. Pleased with her luck, she decides to keep it. As she is taking it home, it keeps changing. However, her enthusiasm(热情)refuses to fade away. Her positive personality tries to make every terrible situation seem like a gift.There Will Come Soft RainsRay BradburyEarth has been destroyed by war. However, machines continue to function and serve humans who have long ago died. The title is taken from a poem describing how nature will continue its work long after humanity is gone. But in this story, we see that nature plays a supporting role and machines have taken its place.The Tale of Johnny Town-MouseBeatrix PotterTimmie is a country mouse accidentally taken to a city. He finds himself at a party and makes a friend. When he can’t bear the city life, he returns to his home. When his friend visits him, something similar happens. Village and city life are recent inventions and we need to decide their costs and benefits.The Night Train at DeoliRuskin BondWhile taking the train, Ruskin Bond always has to pass through a small station called Deoli. One day he sees a girl selling fruit and he is unable to forget her. This is about our attachment to strangers and why we treasure them even though we do not meet them ever again.1.What does There Will Come Soft Rains want to teach us?A.Nature works in its own way.B.Humans shouldn’t break natural law.C.Technology can still function without humanity.D.Technology should be developed to serve our life.2.What happened to Timmie’s friend?A.He settled down in the village.B.He made many friends in the village.C.He couldn’t get used to the village life.D.He couldn’t bear the life in the city anymore. 3.Whose story tries to show the connections between people?A.Flora Annie Steel’s.B.Ray Bradbury’s.C.Beatrix Potter’s.D.Ruskin Bond’s.I want to share with you a story from 28 years ago. My dad was a used car salesman. Every Thursday night, he would head off to Shreveport, LA for an auction (拍卖会). Most of the time, I drove a car over there for him so he could sell it at the auction.One day I was riding with my dad when he noticed a hitch-hiker (搭便车的人) with a backpack. Without hesitation, he pulled the car over and offered him a ride. Dad asked him his name, and proceeded to talk to him about all sorts of things. Dad asked him where he was going. The hitch-hiker told him that he was heading for the west. I can’t recall why but he told Dad a lot of things that had occurred to him and that persuaded him to make that decision. He talked about the tragic events that occurred to him several years before. He was in low spirits, but I could see that the hitch-hiker’s attitude was changing as someone was really listening to him.We drove 45 minutes before the hitch-hiker got off. We pulled over and Dad told him to keep his head up and things would start looking up for him soon. He reached into his pocket and handed the hitch- hiker a twenty-dollar bill. The guy smiled. He nearly lit up right there on the cold, dark highway.We drove on and my dad did not say a single thing. I was still completely surprised by what I had just witnessed. I was always told by everyone never to pick up a hitch-hiker and yet my dad did it every single time he saw one. While reflecting upon that story I came to understand that just one single kind act could change someone’s life. And I am sure that my father’s deed made that poor man’s day.4.What made the hitch-hiker become less upset?A.The writer’s father talking to him about all sorts of things.B.The writer’s father offering him a free ride.C.The writer’s father really listening to him.D.The writer’s father agreeing to drive him to his destination.5.When his father helped the hitch-hiker, the writer ___________.A.was deeply moved B.strongly disagreedC.admired his father D.couldn’t understand6.Which of the following words can be used to describe the father?A.Wealthy.B.Warm-hearted.C.Far-sighted.D.Adventurous.7.What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing this text?A.To tell a story of his father.B.To show his respect for his father.C.To prove his father is the best teacher.D.To advise people to learn from the hitch-hiker.New research suggests that dogs might be able to help save diseased citrus trees.A group of scientists trained dogs to use their sense of smell to detect a crop disease called citrus-greening. The disease has affected orange, lemon and grapefruit trees in the American states of Florida, California and Texas.The dogs can detect the disease weeks to years before it appears on tree leaves and roots, the researchers report. A study on their findings was published recently in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The report says using dogs is also faster, less costly and more exact than having people collect hundreds of leaves for lab analysis.Timothy Gottwald is a researcher with the U. S. Department of Agriculture and a co-writer of the study. He told The Associated Press, “This technology is thousands of years old-the dog’s nose. We’ve just trained dogs to hunt new prey.”Citrus-greening is caused by a bacteria (细菌) that is spread by a tiny insect that feeds on the leaves and stems of citrus trees. Once a tree is infected (感染), there is no cure. The disease has also hurt citrus crops in Central and South America and Asia. In one experiment involving grapefruit trees in Texas, trained dogs were correct 95 percent of the time in telling the difference between newly infected trees and healthy ones. “The earlier you detect a disease, the better chance you have at stopping an epidemic (流行病) by removing infected trees,” Gottwald said.Matteo Garbelotto studies plants at the University of California, Berkeley. He says the new research shows that dogs can detect an infection well before current methods. Garbelotto has been involved in similar research but had no part in the new study.Laura Sims is a plant scientist with Louisiana Tech University. She praised the steps taken to find out if the dogs were detecting the bacteria itself or a plant’s reaction to an infection. To do that, the researchers infected different kinds of unrelated plants with the bacteria in a laboratory. The dogs were still able to pick out the infected plants.Gottwald said, “You’ve seen dogs working in airports, detecting drugs and explosives. Maybe soon you will see them working on more farms. ”8.According to the research, trained dogs can ________.A.help infected trees recover from diseases B.recognize a crop disease in its early stage C.cause fruit trees to grow faster than usual D.reduce the cost of planting some fruit trees 9.What does the underlined part “new prey” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.Infected plants.B.Fruit trees.C.Tiny insects.D.Favourite foods. 10.Why did the researchers do experiments on unrelated plants?A.To further prove the findings.B.To explore the plant diseases.C.To present different opinions.D.To discover a plant’s reactions.11.How does Gottwald feel about the future use of this new method?A.Doubtful.B.Positive.C.Indifferent.D.Curious.The idea that richer countries are happier may seem intuitively (直觉地) obvious. However, in1974, research by economist Richard Easterlin found otherwise. He discovered that while individuals with higher incomes were more likely to be happy, this did not hold at a national level. In the United States, for example, average income per person rose steadily between 1946 and 1970, but reported happiness levels showed no positive long-term trend.; in fact, they declined (下降) between 1060 and 1970. These differences between nation-level and individual results gave rise to the term “Easterlin paradox”: the idea that a higher rate of economic growth does not result in higher long-term happiness.Having access to additional income seems to only provide a temporary surge (激增) in happiness. Since a certain minimum (最小的) income is needed for basic necessities, it’s possiblethat the happiness boost from extra cash isn’t that great once you rise above the poverty line. This would explain Easterlin’s findings in the United States and other developed countries. He argued that life satisfaction does rise with average incomes but only in the short term.Recent research has challenged the Easternlin paradox, however. In 2013, sociologists Ruut Veenhoven and Floris Vergunst conducted a study using statistics (统计数据) from the World Database of Happiness. Their analysis revealed a positive correlation between economic growth and happiness. Another study by the University of Michigan found that there is no maximum wealth threshold (门槛) at which more money stops contributing to your happiness: “If there is a satiation point, we are yet to reach it.” The study’s findings suggested that every extra dollar you earn makes you happier. With a much debate about the relationship between money and happiness, it’s clear that happiness itself is a complex concept and depends on many factors.According to psychologists (心理学家) Selin Kesebir and Shigehiro Oishi, happiness also depends on how your income compares to the people around you. They argue that a country’s economic growth only makes its citizens happier if wealth is evenly distributed (分配). In developing countries with high income inequality — where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer — average happiness tends to drop because only relatively few people benefit from the economic growth. This suggests that governments should consider conducting policies to ensure more equal distribution of wealth. The happier people are, the more productive they are likely to become, thus leading to improved economic outcomes at the individual and national levels.There is continuing debate about the link between wealth and happiness, with arguments both for and against the belief that richer countries are happier. However, it is clear that wealth alone isn’t enough to make us happy. The effect of income inequality on happiness shows that happiness is a social responsibility. We need to remember the positive effects of generosity, selflessness, and building social connections. Perhaps our focus should be less on how much money we have, and more on how we use it.12.According to the passage, Easterlin Paradox refers to ______.A.the fact that the more money, the happier people will feelB.the suggestion that money should be given the top priority(优先)C.the question how economic outcomes are distributed nationwideD.the opinion that higher income doesn’t necessarily generate happiness13.The word “satiation” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “________”.A.satisfaction B.anxiety C.survival D.confidence 14.What is the major reason for people’s unhappiness related to money?A.Money not enough.B.Money not fairly distributed.C.Rich people richer D.Unequal money paid for equal work. 15.Which of the following might be best title of this passage?A.It’s all relative B.Easternlin paradoxC.The economics of happiness D.Rising income, rising happinessHow to Choose Extracurricular ActivitiesFrom sports to clubs to outside organizations, there are many activities to take part in outside the classroom. 16 Fortunately, it becomes quite easy once you figure out what you enjoy doing in general. With a little more careful thought, you can also choose an activity that interests you.Think about your interests and know your advantages. Before you start considering specific(具体的)activities, take a step back. Think about what excites you and find your passions(热情). 17 Now that you have a better idea of what you like to do in general, decide on those that you are good at. Ask yourself what skills they show. Then find activities that require the same ones. Make sure that you will enjoy yourself by choosing an activity that lets you shine.18 In addition to your interests and advantages, know what you would like to improve about yourself. Use activities as a way to make yourself better. Find out new challenges, without the added stress of having to earn good grades at them. You can use activities to develop general skills that you may not have.Find out what activities are available(可用的)and look into each one. 19 If the website seems incomplete, talk with your teacher or parents. Also look for calendar details, such as start-and-end dates, plus event schedules, to make sure it won’t get in the way of anything else going on in your life. Once you have a list of activities that match your interests, do a little research. 20A.Think about skills you want to develop.B.This can make choosing one a little difficult.C.Use your freshman year to explore your choices.D.In this way, you will have a better idea of what to expect.E.Also make sure that their culture is a good match for your own personality.F.Use those to decide on activities that will keep you interested for a long time.G.Search your school’s website for a complete list of all the activities it provides.二、完形填空Some of us regret that we no longer have parents to serve after their passing away. Then21 not pay more attention to them when they were alive and with us?A few days ago, when I went to a park for my evening walk, I came across an old couple sitting on a bench and talking to each other.

They practice putting on ice suits, working with ropes, and using hand signals to communicate. And once the lake freezes, then practice ice rescue.On a training day, a firefighter puts on his ice suit. He then pushes air out of the ice suit. If not, the trapped air bubble could make him float. He walks out onto frozen lake to play the role of the “victim (受害者)”. He shakes, not from cold, but worries about not knowing when he’ll fall through! His first several steps feel solid. The ice seems thick. But 28 steps in: Crack! Water begins to come in through the ice. He slows down. At 31 steps-Plunk! He falls through the ice. He keeps him mouth shut so he doesn’t swallow any water. It’s time for him to pretend to be a victim, calling for help and struggling in the lake.Two more firefighters, attached to the onshore team with ropes, walk onto the lake. They stay on different parts of the ice in case it breaks, both carrying protective equipment like a belt or a board. Meanwhile, onshore team members, wearing life vests, talk to the “victim” to keep him calm. Near the ice hole, a rescuer drops to her belly and moves slowly. The second rescuer rolls. Both methods spread out the weight so they don’t also fall through the ice.The firefighter with the board explains that they’re there to help. She hands the board to the victim and tells him to catch it. The second firefighter enters the water and ties the belt securely to the victim. He gives a signal and the onshore members pulls the rope. As the rope tightens, the rescuer lifts the victim’s legs so he’s on his belly. Together, they sail across the ice.Once they’re on land, firefighters exchange roles. When every firefighter has had a turn at rescuing and playing “victim”, they all put on warm, dry clothes and head back to the station for hot chocolate.4.Why does the “victim” push air out of his ice suit before entering water?A.To walk in the water.B.To sink beneath the ice.C.To float on the surface.D.To approach firefighters.5.What shouldn’t the rescue members do during the practice?A.Stay apart’on the ice surface.B.Walk as fast as possible on ice.C.Be careful in their each step.D.Carry protective equipment.6.What can we learn from the text?A.Ice rescue only requires excellent individual skills.B.The rescue group perform such rescue practice daily.C.The firefighters take turns to play the part of “victim”.D.It is unnecessary to talk to the “victim” during the rescue.7.What is the best title for the passage?A.Rescue on the iceB.Practice on ice landC.Ways of saving peopleD.Bravery of firefightersSome children are natural-born bosses. They have a strong need to make decisions, manage their environment, and lead rather than follow. Stephen Jackson, a Year One student, “operates under the theory of what’s mine is mine and what’s yours is mine,” says his mother. “The other day I bought two new Star Wars light sabers (剑). Later, I saw Stephen with the two new ones while his brother was using the beat-up ones.”“Examine the extended family, and you’ll probably find a bossy grandparent, aunt, uncle or cousin in every generation. It’s an inheritable trait,” says Russell Barkley, a professor at the Medical University of South Carolina. Other children who may not be particularly bossy can gradually gain dominance (支配地位) when they sense their parents are weak, hesitant, or in disagreement with each other.Whether it’s inborn nature or developed character at work, too much control in the hands of the young isn’t healthy for children or the family. Fear is at the root of a lot of bossy behavior, says family psychologist John Taylor. Children, he says in his book From Defiance to Cooperation, “have secret feelings of weakness” and “a desire to feel safe.” It’s the parents’ role to provide thatprotection.When a “boss child” doesn’t learn limits at home, the stage is set for a host of troubles outside the family. The overly willful and unbending child may have trouble obeying teachers or coaches, for example, or trouble keeping friends. It can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways.“I see more and more parents giving up their power,” says Barkley, who has studied bossy behavior for more than 30 years. “They bend too far because they don’t want to be as strict as their own parents were. But they also feel less confident about their parenting skills. Their kids, in turn, feel more anxious.”8.Bossy children like Stephen Jackson ______.A.make good decisions B.show self-centerednessC.lack care from others D.have little sense of fear9.The underlined phrase “inheritable trait” in paragraph 2 means ______.A.inborn nature B.developed character C.accepted theory D.particularenvironment10.The study on bossy behavior implies that parents ______.A.should give more power to their children B.should be strict with their childrenC.should not be so anxious about their children D.should not set limits for their children 11.Bossy children may probably become ______.A.relaxed B.skillful C.hesitant D.lonelySports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses (球场)in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you couldtake up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.12.Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of?A.Cycling around a lake.B.Motor racing in the desert.C.Playing basketball in a gym.D.Swimming in a sports center.13.What do we know about golf from the passage?A.It is popular in Portugal and Spain.B.It causes water shortages around the world.C.It pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes.D.It needs water and electricity to keep its courses green.14.The author uses power walking as an example mainly because _________.A.it is an outdoor sportB.it improves our healthC.it uses fewer resourcesD.it is recommended by experts15.The author writes the passage to _________.A.show us the function of major sportsB.encourage us to go in for green sportsC.discuss the major influence of popular sportsD.introduce different types of environment-friendly sportsThe Most Important Day of Your LifeWhat’s the most important day of your life? The answer to that question is simple — Today.16 You can’t do anything about things that have already happened, and trying to live in the future will take your focus away from the present. So the helpful strategy for anyone is to make the most of the moment that is right in front of us.Doing our best today may make things easier for us later on, or at least help us to deal with whatever situation we are in. 17 We will still be dealing with the same challenges tomorrow.Each morning I ask myself what I can do to make today memorable. 18 In Hebrew school we were asked what we had done to help other people the previous week. Did we help an older person cross the street? Did we encourage someone who had a promising idea? 19 All of these things represent a worthy deed because they involve doing something to help someone else.Even if today is not that meaningful for you, something you do for someone else may be very meaningful for them. You never know how much a good deed for someone else will impact that person. The greatest meaning that today brings may not be for you, it may be for someone else.20 You can deal with tomorrow next week, or next year when it gets here. A.The answer involves doing something kind for someone else.B.Did we hold the door for someone whose hands were full?C.Is today still the most important day?D.The past cannot be changed, and the future has not happened yet.E.Ignoring today and hoping it will go away certainly won’t work.F.If you wash it away, someone else may not get the benefits.G.So make the most of today.二、完形填空I’ve had cerebral palsy (CP) (大脑性瘫痪) since I was born.

They tell us that the earth travels over a thousand miles a minute on its journey round the sun.The sun is really a star. It is much bigger than the earth and it is very hot.

Yes, I encouraged—okay, ordered—them to wait it out at the airport, to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar.

I’m also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut.

Let’s get started by checking out Student Guide for your academic journey!Signing up for ESL (English as a Second Language)ESL courses are designed to help international students improve academic English language skills. Enrollment (课程注册) priority is given to degree students. If space is available, you may enroll. You will then be asked to take an ESL Placement Test. The test results will help you choose the class that is appropriate for vou.Changing Your Course Enrollment ListYou may change your class schedule during the first two weeks of the term by adding or dropping courses from your enrollment list. After the second week of classes, there will be a charge for each schedule change. Students often attend classes in which they are not enrolled on the first day of instruction to try adding this new course to the list, as other students may have dropped it.Withdrawing from CoursesIf you choose to drop a course, you must follow the UCLA procedures for removing it from your schedule. If you forget to officially drop that course, a “F” (Fail) grade will be registered on your record at the end of the term. If, at a later date, you wish to apply for a job or graduate school where an official copy of your UCLA record is required, it will be to your advantage to provide an impressive academic record.Taking ExamsSome instructors choose to put previous test papers on library reserve, making themavailable to all students. These exams, which students commonly use for practice, can give you an idea of how instructors ask questions and what they regard as relevant material. You can also access the exams online.16.An ESL Placement Test is aimed to ________.A.improve the students’ language skillsB.encourage the students to answer questionsC.put the students in a class that fits themD.help the students apply for a degree17.What is the deadline for a free enrollment list change?A.The day when the class is full.B.The first day of instruction.C.The first week of the class.D.The end of the second week.18.What should exchange students do if they choose to stop taking a course?A.Seek assistance from UCLA officials.B.Go through the procedures to drop it.C.Present past academic records to UCLA.D.Make a request to the Registration Office.19.Working on previous tests helps students ________.A.imitate the way that their instructors write test questionsB.learn how questions are asked and what they are based onC.come up with new ideas about how testing relates to teaching X.D.narrow down to what has not yet been covered in online testsMy grandma passed away last week. My mum began the painful yet necessary task of sorting through her belongings.“Is there anything you want from grandma’s flat?” Mum texted me.“Her aloe (芦荟), please.” I required zero thinking time.Sometime around 1975, Grandma, always believing good things would happen in the future, received this plant as a gift, which she appreciated and placed in her doorway. It came from thelocal butcher. Five years later, my mum married the butcher’s son and had me. Grandma revealed to me this particular plant was a living relationship between the two families. And so was I.Recently, whenever we visited Grandma’s flat, I attempted to fix this concept in my children’s minds. “That was a gift your great-grandma bought your other great-grandma! It’s older than me!” Then my kids would nod and ask Grandma for a sweet.Numerous times, Grandma gave me cuttings or clippings of the plant, hoping I might raise my own and continue the legend. Yet, every time, my new branch died with my awful gardening skills. But that didn’t used to matter, because I could turn to Grandma, who would wait and accept my disturbance without becoming upset. Then I got another clipping and tried again. But now I can’t. So, I decided that the plant will go and live with Ann, my mother-in-law, who is a genius with a greenhouse.The plan is for Ann to keep hold of the original plant. In time, she can teach me how to deal with its cuttings properly, and then maybe one day I can settle the plant in my place.In the meantime, Ann will allocate (分配) clippings among my relatives, as Grandma used to do. My wife’s two sisters, for example, are both better at tending plants than I am, so it is quite imaginable that they, too, will offer cuttings of the plant to their partners, spreading this loving plant across my entire extended family.20.Why did the author want his grandma’s aloe?A.He wanted to pass it down to others.B.He showed a preference for gardening.C.He had a pleasant memory of the plant.D.He received it as a gift from his grandma. 21.Which of the following best describes the author’s grandma?A.Optimistic and patient.B.Generous and helpful.C.Honest and fashionable.D.Humorous and skillful.22.The author took the aloe to his mother-in-law toA.display his skills in gardening B.have the plant better cared forC.announce his grandma’s death D.protect the plant from dying out23.What may be the best title for the text?A.Aloe: my family bond B.Aloe: a mysterious plantC.Grandma: my life coach D.Grandma: a lovely gardenerLanguages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages. Often spoken by many people while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 Languages: the Americas about 1,000, Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150). Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival. 24.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patters.D.They were closely connected25.Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2?A.Complex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.26.How many languages are spoken by less than 6, 000 people at present?A.About 6,800 .B.About 3,400C.About 2,400D.About 1,200.27.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.Peoples lifestyles are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.The kids are hanging out. I pass small bands of students, on my way to work these mornings. They have become a familiar part of the summer landscape.These kids are not old enough for jobs. Nor are they rich enough for camp. They are school children without school. The calendar called the school year ran out on them a few weeks ago. Once monitored by teachers and principals, they now appear to be “self care”.Passing them is like passing through a time zone. For much of our history, after all, Americans arranged the school year around the needs of work and family. In 19th-century cities, schools were open seven or eight hours a day, 11 months a year. In rural America, the year was arranged around the growing season. Now, only 3 percent of families follow the agricultural model, but nearly all schools are scheduled as if our children went home early to milk the cows and took months off to work the crops. Now, three-quarters of the mothers of school-age children work, but the calendar is written as if they were home waiting for the school bus.The six-hour day, the 180-day school year is regarded as something holy. But when parents work an eight-bour day and a 240-day year, it means something different. It means that many kids go home to empty houses. It means that, in the summer, they hang out.“We have a huge mismatch between the school calendar and realities of family life,” says Dr. Ernest Boyer, head of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.Dr. Boyer is one of many who believe that a radical revision of the school calendar is inevitable. “School, whether we like it or not, is educational. It always has been.”His is not a popular idea. Schools are routinely burdened with the job of solving all our social problems. Can they be asked to meet the needs of our work and family lives?It may be easier to promote a longer school year on its educational merits and, indeed, the educational case is convincing. Despite the complaints and studies about our kids lack of learning,the United State still has a shorter school year than any industrial nation. In most of Europe, the school year is 220 days. in Japan, it is 240 days long. While classroom time alone doesn’t produce a well-educated child, learning takes time and more learning takes more time. The long summers of forgetting take a toll.The opposition to a longer school year comes from families that want to and can provide other experiences for their children. It comes from teachers. It comes from tradition. And surely from kids. But the most important part of the conflict has been over the money.28.The current American school calendar was developed in the 19th century according to ______.A.the growing season on nation’s farmB.the labor demands of the industrial ageC.teachers’ demands for more vacation timeD.parents’ demands for other experiences for their kids29.Why is Dr. Boyer’s idea unpopular?A.He thinks that school year and family life should be considered separatelyB.He argues for the role of school in solving social problems.C.He strongly believes in the educational role of school.D.He supports the current school calendar.30.“The long summers of forgetting take a toll” in the last paragraph but one means that ______.A.long summer vacation changes the way of learningB.long summer vacation has been abandoned in EuropeC.long summers result in less learning timeD.long summers are a result of tradition31.The author thinks that the current school calendar ______.A.is still appropriate B.is out of dateC.is inevitable D.cannot be revised三、单词拼写32.At first I disagreed, but on (反思),I realized she was right.(根据汉语提示单词拼写) 33.Children have a natural c (好奇心) about the world around them. .
