一、阅读理解（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）AFriend is better than fortune. A friend is worse than poison in some cases.The two sentences above have opposite meanings and seem to be unreasonable, but they can be explained as follows: the first refers to all good friends who drive us towards good while the second all bad ones who lead us into bad ways.My ideal friend is of course a good friend whose goodness is shown below — he has no bad habits, such as smoking and drinking. He lives in frugality (节俭) He studies hard so as not to waste his golden time. At home he honors his parents and loves his brothers; at school he respects his teachers and shares the feelings of his classmates. He treats those truly who are true to him. In a word, he has all the good characteristics that I don’t have. I can follow him as a model. With his help I can be free from all difficulties.Indeed, if I have such a person as my friend, I shall never fear difficulty and I shall never know the existence of the word “failure”.1: This passage tells us ____.A．how to make friends with othersB．how to help friendsC. what ki nd of person the writer’s friend isD．what kind of person we should make friends with2: According to the writer, an ideal friend refers to _______.A．a friend without bad habits B．a famous manC．a perfect man D．a respectable man3: From the passage we can learn that ________.A.the writer and his ideal friend have a lot to learn from each otherB.the writer has a lot to learn from his ideal friendC.the writer’s ideal friend has a lot to learn from himD.the writer has only a little to learn from his ideal frien4:From the second paragraph, we can infer the writer is sure that _______.A.friendship means a great deal to him B .nothing can be done without friendsC. he who does not smoke or drink must be a good friendD good friends should always help each otherBMy first day of school was very interesting and couldn't be easily forgotten.I hurried to my science class in the morning and found a seat in the back. I waited there for 15 minutes before the bell rang. The science teacher told us about some class rules. No one talked to me nor did I talk to anyone else. I was one of those very shy girls. After the science class, I had an English class. I thought it would be boring but it turned out to be very funny. When the classes of the morning ended I went to lunch. I sat outside the diningroom with no one to talk to and no food because I was too nervous to jointhe lunch line. I kept looking around hoping to see someone I knew but I never saw anyone.Lunch ended and I went to have my art class. I was the first one thereand not even my teacher was there yet. So I sat at my desk and starteddrawing some pictures. I didn't notice the rest of the class walking in or the girl that was standing behind me till I was surprised by the voice, “So what are you drawing？”It was a girl who had really long hair. She ended up being my best friend and one of the kindest and liveliest girls I know.In the next class meeting, the teacher asked us to talk about the past holiday. I was glad to make some new friends in the class. The first day of high school was hard for me but I got through it5. What do we know about the writer's science class?A.

Help please.”I had nothing on me, so I did my shopping and just hoped he would stay there by the time I finished what needed to do.I did my shopping quickly and bought him some chocolate and prepared a bank note for him. When I left the shop, he was still there so I started a little conversation. He said he was from Glasgow, Britain, and that he was homeless here without any relatives or friends. My heart went to him. No one should be homeless. We should all have the right to own a shelter in some shape of form.I gave him the chocolate and some money and when he looked at the bank note, he said, “Are you sure?” I said, “Yes, it is your birthday gift.”Moved deeply, he said, “You know it is really my birthday, I was born on the 16th of August 1970, and this is the best present I have received today. “In my heart I knew that he was tellingthe truth despite just a few words written carelessly on a piece of cardboard. These are things one just knows in their heart. While I am writing this story, I realize that my brother was born in 1970. He could be my brother. He probably is someone’s brother. My wish for him is that he gets his life organized and finds a place he can call home.12．Why didn't the author help the homeless man when she first saw him？A．She had no time to offer help． B．She had nothing to give him．C．She didn't notice the sign． D．She didn't know about him．13．What did the author do in the shop besides shopping？A．She waited until the man left． B．She enjoyed all kinds of goods．C．She relaxed herself in the shop． D．She prepared a bank note for the man．14．We can know from the last paragraph that．A．the man told a lie about his birthdayB．the author disliked the hand writingC．the author didn't doubt the man's words D．the man was the author's brother 15．What did the author wish the man to do in the future？A．To get married． B．To live with relatives．C．To live a normal life． D．To return home．EAdvice to English learnersLearners of English, especially self-taught learners may have trouble in understanding speeches by native speakers. The following ways might help improve their ability.First of all, do things step by step. It is not good to listen to something beyond your level. Better choose a suitable course and start with the first book. Go on to the second book only after you are sure you understand the first one.Secondly, stick to one course of study. Don’t change books often. Never let your attention be attracted by another course just because it seems to be more “ fashionable”(时髦).Thirdly, listen to the English news programme over the radio from time to time. Better go through the news stories in the Chinese-language newspaper first. That will make it easy for you to understand the English news on the radio.Fourthly, if you have time, listen to some interesting stories in “special English” from the VOA or other listening materials of the same level as that of your textbook.16.This is a piece of advice to learners of English in how to_____.A．improve their listening ability B．read fastC．write better English and read fast D．speak correctly17. If you want to understand the English news programme on the radio, you should_________.A .read the Chinese-language newspaper carefullyB.read again and again the Chinese-language newspaperC.go through the Chinese-language newspaperD.be able to recite the Chinese-language newspaper18.“Beyond your level” means something_______.A．easy for you B．too difficult for youC．not too easy and not too difficult for you D．just all right for you19.. The author advised that once you have taken up a course, you should_______.A.stick to itB. begin with the last bookC. take up other courses if you are more fashionableD. not do anything else20..In this passage, VOA stands for______.A．a book B．a magazine C．a textbook D．a radio station二、完形填空（共20 小题，每题1.5分，满分30 分）It's nice having a friend,” said Mole to Rabbit as they sat talking in the sun one day.“Oh, it is!” said Rabbit.“Very useful, too,____21___ if you need help. ____22___, I think I'd like Bull(公牛) to be my friend.”“But I'm your friend!” said Mole, feeling _____23____.“Oh, yes,” said Rabbit.“You are good for talking to a nd laughing with, ___24__you are too small.

A news report.BOpen Letter to an EditorI had an interesting conversation with a reporter recently –one who works for you. In fact, he’s one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.Your reporter gave me a copy of his resume （简历）and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues （问题）, approaches them, and writesabout them, which tells me he is one of your best. I’m sure you would hate to lose him. Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He has a great assignment （分工）, and said you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you’ve given him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.So why is he looking for a way out?He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, when it will be in, where it can play, and what the budget is.He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he’s doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down and inside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for your paper. That’s what you want for him, too, isn’t it?So your reporter has set me thinking.Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists- everyone- is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. If we can’t do it, they’ll find someone who can.25. What does the writer think of the reporter?A. Optimistic.B. Imaginative.C. Ambitious.D. Proud.26. What does the reporter want most from his editors in their talks?A. Finding the news value of his stories.B. Giving him financial support.C. Helping him to find issues.D. Improving his good ideas.27. Who probably wrote the letter?A. An editor.B. An artist.C. A rep orter.D. A reader.28. The letter aims to remind editors that they should ________.A. keep their best reporters at all costsB. give more freedom to their reportersC. be aware of their reporters’professional developmentD. appreciate their reporters’working styles and attitudesCPacing and PausingSara tried to befriend her old friend Steve’s new wife, but Betty never seemed to have anything to say. While Sara felt Betty didn’t hold up her end of the conversation, Betty complained to Steve that Sara never gave her a chance to talk. The problem had to do with expectations about pa cing and pausing.Conversation is a turn-taking game. When our habits are similar, there’s no problem. But if our habits are different, you may start to talk before I’m finished or fail to take your turn when I’m finished. That’s what was happening with Betty andSara.It may not be coincidental （巧合）that Betty, who expected relatively longer pauses between turns, is British, and Sara, who expected relatively shorter pauses, is American. Betty often felt interrupted by Sara. But Betty herself became an interrupter and found herself doing most of the talking when she met a visitor from Finland. And Sara had a hard time cutting in on some speakers from Latin America or Israel.The general phenomenon, then, is that the small conversation technique s, like pacing and pausing, lead people to draw conclusions not about conversational style but about personality and abilities. These habitual differences are often th e basis for dangerous stereotyping （思维定式）. And these social phenomena can have very personal consequences. For example, a woman from the southwestern part of the US went to live in an eastern city to take up a job in personnel. When the Personnel Department got together for meetings, she kept searching for the right time to break in –and never found it. Although back home she was considered outgoing and confident, in Washington she was viewed as shy and retiring. When she was evaluated at the end of the year, she was told to take a training course because of her inability to speak up.That’s why slight differences in conversational style-tiny little things like microseconds of pause –can have a great effect on one’s life. The result in this case was a judgment of psychological problems –even in the mind of the woman he rself, who really wondered what was wrong with her and registered for assertivenesstraining.29. What did Sara think of Betty when talking with her?A. Betty was talkat ive.B. Betty was an interrupter.C. Betty did not take her turn.D. Betty paid no attention to Sara.30. According to the pa ssage, who are likely to expect the shortest pauses between turns?A. Americans.B. Israelis.C. The British.D. The Finns.31. We can learn from the passage that ________.A. communication breakdown results from short pauses and fast pa cingB. women are unfavorably stereotyped in eastern cities of the USC. one’s inability to speak up is culturally determined sometimesD. one should receive training to build up one’s confidence32. The underlined word “assertiveness”in the last paragraph probably means ________.A. being willing to speak one’s mindB. being able to increase one’s powerC. being ready to make one’s own judgmentD. being quick to express one’s ideas confidentlyDWhen something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’sso-and-so’s fault.”or “I know I’m late, but it’s not my fault; the car broke down.”It is probably no t your fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on the person. You should aecept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner is all about-creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and apportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is.”Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.33. According to the passage, winners _________.A. deal with problems rather than blame othersB. m eet with fewer difficulties in their livesC. have responsible and able colleaguesD. blame themselves rather that others34. When your colleague brings about a problem, you should ________.A. find a better way to handle the problemB. blame him for his lack of responsibilityC. tell him to find the cause of the problemD. ask a more able colleague for help35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Winner’s Secret.B. A Winner’s ProblemC. A Winner’s Opportunity.D. A Winner’s Achievement.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ADry ice is CO2 in solid form, with a temperature of about -78.5℃.Unlike c ommon ice, dry ice doesn't melt into a liquid . When dry ice melts, it turns into a gas. So when you see dry ice "smoking", it's frozen CO2 melting into its gaseous state. Dry ice is a popular matter in scientific experiments. It creates projects that look cool.Experiment: Healthy dry ice popsicles（棒冰）This dry ice experiment will catch people's eye, especially little kids' because the dry ice is going to be used to make what the young love to eat. It should take you about 10 minutes or less to have a frozen treat to enjoy.MaterialsOne large block of dry iceA large spoonPopsicle sticksOne cup of your favorite juiceA tall glass filled with waterDirectionsUse the large spoon to make a popsicle-shaped space in a block of dry ice. You can set the ice on a piece of cloth on your table to do this work. Of course, keep in mind that it's okay if it's not exactly popsicle-shaped.Add a popsicle stick to the middle of the space so that when you pour in the liquid, it will freeze around the popsicle stick.Hold the popsicle stick in place and wait a few minutes for your popsicle to harden. After several minutes, take away the popsicle from the block of dry ice and put it into a tall glass of water for a few seconds. Do this to warm up the popsicle just a bit. Otherwise, it will be too cold.21.According to the text, what's the main difference between dry ice and common ice?A. Their forms.B. Their shapes.C. Their temperatures.D. Their states when they melt.22. What's the first step to do the experiment?A. To fill the tall glass with juice.B. To pour the juice into the space.C. To make space in the dry ice for juice.D. To put a stick to the middle of the dry ice.23. How does the dry ice work in the experiment?A. It gives out "smoke".B. It is mixed in the juice.C. It makes the juice freeze.D. It makes the popsicle look cool.BSome of Australian cyclists have used "GPS art" to turn a 202 km (125- mile) ride into the outline of a goat, which interests many people greatly.The four men marked their route on an app before using it track their journey around Perth. When uploaded to the computer, it was shown as a picture. Cyclist Ben Jones said the group settled on a goat because it was an easy animal to draw. He said the ride lasted more than six hours, with the four men stopping only for food, and flat tyres . "Except for riding 202km, it's relatively simple," Mr. Jones told the BBC. "You mainly mark your route on the app and it plans directions out."GPS art has also been widely used by runners and other cyclists when they travel out. Mr. Jones said his group wanted to shake up their normal weekend ride. "We all ride l0,000km to 15,000km a year," he said. "Mostly we just ride together as mates and have a good time － that's what this was about."The group received much attention after posting their map to social media this week. Others described Mr. Jones as a goat guy in an interview on Australiantelevision. For their next piece of GPS art, the group plans to draw a local animal such as the koala.

Everyone has received an unwanted gift at least once in his or her life. That doesn’t mean the item is bad or useless. It simply means that it doesn’t work for you.If you find yourself with something nice but that doesn’t fit into your lifestyle, consider regifting it. Before you do that, make sure you understand the manners of this practice that is more and more common as people find it difficult to make ends meet to a great extent.There are specific things you should do to an item. Failure to do any of them may create an awkward situation. You never have to lie about what you are doing, butyou don’t want to be in the position of having to explain anything. For example, remove the original wrapping paper and rewrap it in your own; make sure the box is in good condition so the item doesn’t appear used; check the item and make sure there are no cards or names on the packaging; inspect the item and make sure it is in excellent condition.for your next celebration. This removes all the embarrassment of being caught regifting because that’s the whole purpose of the event. In order to prevent hurting feelings, provide everyone with a guest list and ask them not to bring anything given by the people on that list.28. Why does the author begin the passage with a question?A. To share a hot phenomenon.B. To introduce the following part.C. To ask for readers’ answers.D. To point out a common opinion.29. What most contributes to the growing regifting?A. People’s lack of money.B. People’s dislike of the gifts.C. People’s reduced desire for gifts.D. People’s understanding of its manners.30. What’s mainly t alked about in Paragraph 3?A. What to do before regifting.B. How to make use of unwanted gifts.C. What kind of gifts to be regifted.D. Why regifting can cause embarrassment.31. What does the underlined phrase in the last paragraph mean?A. Suitable but valueless.B. Expensive and useful.C. Packaged and invaluable.D. Nice but unsuitable.DThe idea that you can use humor, laughter, and play to make you healthier probably seems too simple to be true. However, it is really true and simple. The sense of humor, laughter and play has an important part in keeping you healthy.Use "the best medicine" to treat the blues with a sense of humor, which is closelytied to laughter. Laughter is infectious. Have you ever heard a big laugh of a youngchild and been able to keep yourself from smiling? When laughter is shared between people, it makes them closer to each other and increases their happiness. Smilingis the beginning of laughter and a smile is also just as infectious as laughter is.You can experience something by smiling at everyone around you, and you will feel happier just by sharing a smile, even with a stranger.Play is an important part of making sure that we stay healthy. We are often encouraged to make sure our children play, and are told of the benefits of being out playing. However, what we often forget is that it is just as important for old peopleto make play be part of their life as it’s for children. Physical play is importantfor the old and it certainly helps prevent illness. While the studies are still inthe early stages, the studies that have been done have shown that physical play certainly plays a part in preventing cognitive(认知的) falling.Anyway, adding humor, laughter, and play to our life will influence us mentally, physically and socially and bring us many advantages. So we should make full use of humor, laughter and play to make our life more active, interesting and happier.32. What does the underlined word "infectious" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Playing an important role.B. Keeping people in high spirits.C. Quickly influencing other people.D. Preventing illness from spreading.33. What can laughter increase according to the author?A. Cognitive ability.B. Good relationships.C. A sense of humor.D. Happiness and trust.34. What does the author think the old should do?A. They should have a good rest.B. They should play like children.C. They should prevent cognitive falling.D. They should take part in physical play.35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Humor, Laughter and Play for HealthB. Always Keep Our Body HealthyC. Have an Active and Happy LifeD. Let Our Body and Mind Relax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。

2019届高三年级英语期中考试卷及答案(附答题卡）本试卷分第I卷和第II卷两部分第Ⅰ卷第一部分听力(略)第二部分阅读理解(共2节，满分40分)第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项中(A、B、C和D)中, 选出最佳选项。
AWill it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class.Opposite to what many people believe, if you don't eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.21. During the test, those who were tested were given .A. no breakfast at allB. different breakfasts or noneC. little food for breakfastD. very rich breakfast22. The results of the test show that .A. breakfast has great effect on work and studiesB. breakfast has little to do with a person’s workC. a person will work better if he has a simple breakfastD. those working with brains should have much for breakfast23. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Poor breakfasts affect those who work with brains.B. Morning diet may cause one to get fatter.C. Eating less in lunch and supper may help to lose weight.D. Reducing breakfast is of great value in weight losing.B。

2019学年度第一学期期中考试高三年级英语试题第一部分：听力（见第 11页）第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题 2分，共30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的ABCD四个选项中，选出最佳。
AFive of the most beautiful villagesSidi Bou Said in TunisiaThis village seems to disappear into the sky. All the houses are painted white and the skies are clear. It's not surprising that the life here is very relaxing, and it is also home to plenty of cafes and art galleries.Wengen in SwitzerlandDo you ever wonder how the world was before cars were invented? The village called Wengen might just help you realize your dreams. Cars have been banned from this area for close to 100 years, and everything looks like it was taken right out of Heidi. The locals have kept their Swiss culture undamaged. Shirakawa-go in JapanThis village is certainly known for its unusual houses with triangular roofs which seem to resemble hands joined in prayer. It's designed to keep snow from piling up on top of houses. These houses are the symbol of the area but there aren't many of them left anymore.Eze in FranceFrance in itself is pretty, but its most attractive village is Eze. This community seems to be frozen in time. This village is the perfect melting pot of cultures because of its closeness to Nice. During the Middle Ages, it was desired by invaders(侵略者),and while this was a cause of sadness for the local people in the past, today the village enjoys its rich heritage(遗产).The architecture here is so diverse. Bibury in EnglandLocated on the River Coln in the West of England, Bibury was described as "the most beautiful village in England”.Honey-colored 17th-century stone cottages, the Church of St.Mary and a still-working 1902 farm are some of the ancient village’s must-sees. The most photographed spot is Arlington Row, whichis a collection of 14th-century stone buildings.21.Where can visitors enjoy paintings?A.In Sidi Bou Said.B.In Shirakawa-go.C.In Wengen.D.In Eze.22. What's the similarity between Wengen and Bibury?A. They both sit by a long river.B. They both have an ancient view.C. They are home to many inventions.D. They are located in the same country.23. What do we know about Eze?A. Its people look sad.B. It forbids cars to enter.C. Its architecture is modern.D. It was attacked in the past.BIt is curious that Stephen Koziatek feels almost as though he has to explain about his efforts to give his students a better future.Mr Koziatek is part of something pioneering. He is a teacher at a New Hampshire high school where learning is not about books and tests and rote memorization(死记硬背),but something practical. As Koziatek knows, there is learning in just about everything. Nothing is necessarily gained by forcing students to learn geometry at a desk. They can also learn geometry by putting together a bicycle.But he's also found a kind of prejudice. Working with your hands is seen as almost a mark of inferiority(低等).Schools in the family of vocational(职业的) education “have that opinion...that it's for kids who can't make it academically,” he says.On one hand, that viewpoint is a logical product of America's evolution. Manufacturing(制造业)is not the economic engine that it once was. The job security that the US economy once offered to high school graduates has largely disappeared. More education is the new way. We want more for our kids, and rightfully so.But the headlong push into bachelor's degrees for all—and the devaluing of anything less—misses an important point: That's not the only thing the American economy needs. Yes, a bachelor’s degree opensmore doors.But even now, 54 percent of the jobs in the country are middle-skill jobs, such as construction and high-skill manufacturing, according to the National Skills Coalition. But only 44 percent of workers are adequately trained. There is a gap in working-class jobs, but the workers who need those jobs most aren't equipped to do them. Koziatek's Manchester School of Technology (High School) is trying to fill that gap.Koziatek's school is a wake-up call. When education becomes one-size-fits-all, it risks overlookinga nation's diversity of gifts.24. What's the characteristic of Mr. Koziatek’s school?A. Paying attention to practical learning.B. Letting students do many tests.C. Encouraging students to read books.D. Forcing students to learn by rote.25. What does the underlined phrase "that viewpoint” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Vocational education is for academically challenged students.B. Vocational education is undoubtedly a good choice.C. Not all students can be admitted to college.D. Not all students can do physical work.26. How are people reacting to the disappearance of manufacturing?A. They lower their expectations.B. They try to improve their skills.C. They turn to the government.D. They continue their education.27. What does the author think of the school's goal?A. It needs lots of effort.B. It is worth achieving.C. It is unpractical.D. It is adventurous.CWhen I was eleven, my parents gave me the first book I ever owned—“The Tales of Edgar Allan Poe”.I distinctly remember opening it, reading the first lines of "The Cask of Amontillado,” and remarkingto myself, "So this is what reading is!”My delight was unbounded. Little did I know at the time that I was at the beginning of a lifelong journey.So, if I read my first real book at the advanced age of 11, what was I reading before then? In a word, readers: relatively plotless, repetitive if well-intentioned attempts to teach children to recognize letters and their sounds and to build their vocabularies. Being a dutiful boy, I went through the motions and I learned what words were. But I had no idea what writing was. Until Poe. In Poe's stories, the sentences were more complex and stylish than anything I had ever read before.Poe, in short, was a start. My parents gave me that first book, but then I went off on my own. I liked science, which led me to discover Jules Verne and H.G. Wells. Other writers followed quickly one after another: Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Arthur C. Clarke. But I didn't limit myself to science fiction. Other titles that deeply impressed me early on, and which I have carried on my life's journey, include: “The Yearling,"“Shane”“Ivanhoe,"“Of Mice and Men," "To Kill a Mocking bird," and “The Good Earth”.It went on from there. I became that kid who, long after his parents told him to turn the lights off, hid under the covers with a flashlight and a book, his greatest fear of being discovered and having his flashlight taken away. I realize that my parents must have known I was defying (违背) them. But in their wisdom they pretended to be ignorant of it. And so I owe my start as a reader to my parents.28. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?A. The author's good memories.B. The author's childhood before 11.C. The author's parents' reading habits.D. The author's affection for his first book.29. What was the influence of plotless reading on the author?A.He didn't accumulate enough vocabularies.B. He didn't know what real writing was.C. He couldn't read complex sentences.D. He couldn't write a good article.30. What is the attitude of the author's parents to his reading under the covers?A.Indifferent.B. Tolerant.C. Anxious.D. Objective.31. What is the best title for the text?A. How I wrote a good bookB. How I found my favorite booksC. How I learned from my parentsD. How I became a reader of booksDAt one recently-opened restaurant in Japan, diners are warned that they very well might not get what they ordered—but surprisingly, it seems few customers are complaining.That's because waiters at the restaurant, which is called“The Restaurant of Order Mistakes, all have dementia and Alzheimer's(痴呆和阿尔茨海默症). The founders of the unique dining spot hope that eating there will help change opinions about dementia and teach customers to be more patient with those who suffer from it.Yahoo! Japan first reported that the restaurant opened in Tokyo's Toyosu district on June 2 and closed after June 4, but will re-open around World Alzheimer's Day in September. The restaurant’s name is a twist on the title of a 1924 story by Kenji Miyazawa called The Restaurant of Many Orders.The restaurant idea was originally thought of by a few like-minded people, including the owners of Maggie's Tokyo. The founders hope to spread a message about inclusivity(包容), and teach people to be more understanding toward elders with dementia. The restaurant also serves to point out that dementia and Alzheimer's sufferers can still be functioning members of society. It's also a fun way to celebrate human mistakes.It doesn't all run smoothly, though. The restaurant readily warns that waiters may bring customers the wrong order. They also may forget to bring drinks or other items.Mizuho Kudo, a Japanese food editor, tweeted(发推特) about her stop at the restaurant. She ordered a hamburger steak but was given gyoza dumplings instead, but everything turned out to be unexpectedly delicious and she said she "laughed a lot” during the meal. She also noted that the waiter were full of smiles and seemed to be having a lot of fun, laughing and excitedly attending to their customers with delicious food. Her tweet about the experience has been liked over 160,000 times, and many commenters seemed impressed by the idea.32. In what way is the restaurant special?A. Its waiters all suffer from a brain disease.B. It only provides traditional foods.C. Its service is the best in Japan.D. It opens only in September.33. What’s one purpose of the restaurant?A. To show dementia sufferers can still contribute to society.B. To raise money for people suffering from mental illness.C. To educate the young to understand the elders.D. To show people a new type of restaurant.34. What did Mizuho Kudo do after having a meal in the restaurant?A. She brought her friends to the restaurant.B. She opened a similar restaurant.C. She volunteered to work in the restaurant.D. She shared her experience with others.35. How did Mizuho Kudo feel about her experience in the restaurant?A．Surprising. B. Unusual.C．Pleasant. D. Necessary.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。
