Sunday 29 AprilTuesday 22 May. D. On Tuesday 29 May21--23 AADBI first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director ofButch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn’t want me for the film—it wanted somebody as well known as Paul— he stood up for me. I don’t know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craftand focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other—but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core of our relationship off the screen.We shared the brief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back—he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.I last saw him a few months ago.

【广东省广州市】2017年高考二模英语试卷(附答案与解析)

广东省广州市2017年高考二模英语试卷第二部分阅读理解(30分)AMany people would love to leave their jobs behind and have a life-changing adventure overseas. They imagine lying under palm trees as the sun goes down. However, life overseas is not always easy, and many are not prepared for the shock of living in an alien culture.The honeymoon periodAt first, or those who actually decide to move abroad, life is an exciting adventure. They enjoy exploring their new sur roundings, and life seems like an extended holiday. They don’t mind trying the local cuisine and discovering the local culture. They can even afford to practice their foreign-language skills without fear of making mistakes.Trouble in paradiseIn many cases, when people consider moving to another country, they often fail to realize how different life will be. As time goes by, they become frustrated when language and cultural misunderstandings become a daily headache. In this stage, the visitors begin to withdraw from life in the host country and avoid spending time with local people in favor of mixing with others from their own cultural background.The road to recoveryGradually, most visitors realize they must accept the differences and not fight against them. This change encourages them to improve their language skills and slowly they manage to do the things they could easily do at home, such as opening a bank account. This new-found confidence enables them to see a side of life which very few tourists get to witness.Adjusting to life abroad can often be a real problem. The secret to overcoming it is to stop trying to change your host country: you will not succeed. If not, you risk losing your dream and having to return to the old life you wanted to leave behind.21.Why do people moving abroad feel excited at first? ________A.They find foreign living much easier.B.They have the necessary language skills.C.They love the adventure and exploration.D.They enjoy meeting people from different cultures.22.According to the author, what is the main problem many people moving abroad face? ________ A.Homesickness.B.Culture shock.C.Health problems.D.Lack of employment.23.What would the author suggest people moving abroad do? ________A.Study the local language.B.Go on holidays frequently.C.Learn how to open a bank account.D.Seek out people from their home country.BAustralia loves interesting money. In 1988,it was the first country to replace paper money with special plastic banknotes. Now it’s introduced a n ew five-dollar bill so technologically advanced that many experts are calling it the money of the future!At first glance, the new note looks much like the old one. It has the same pink color and main pictures on the front and back. But look closer, and you will notice a clear window running down the middle, surrounded by images of the yellow Prickly Moses, a type of Australian plant.Tilt(使倾斜)the note a little and you will see the Eastern Spine bill, an Australian bird, beating its wings as if trying to fly away. Turn the bill from side to side, and you will notice the picture of a small building at the bottom of the note spins, and the image of “5”changes position. While these moveable features are impressive and entertaining, that was not the reason Australian government officials spent ten years developing them. Their primary purpose was to make it impossible for criminals to produce their own fake notes.The new five-dollar note also has something to help blind people easily identify the money. It has s raised bump alongside the top and bottom, enabling blind people to quickly determine its value.The credit for persuading the Australian government to add this all-important bump goes to 15-year-old Connor McLeod. The blind Sydney teenager came up with the idea in 2014 after being unable to tell how much money he had received for Christmas. Connor says he was so embarrassed at not being able to see the difference between notes that he only carried coins to pay for food at not being able to see the difference between notes that he only carried coins to pay for food at the school cafeteria. To convince the government officials of his idea, Connor started a website that got huge public attention.The government will add this feature to the new 10 bill which comes out in late 2017, as well as the updated 20, 50, and 100bills that are still being designed.24.Which picture does NOT move when the banknote is tilted? ________A.The bird. B.The number. C.The plants. D.The building. 25.What was the main reason the Australian government created the new banknote? ________A.To make the note more difficult to copy.B.To show the country’s advanced technology.C.To help blind people more easily use money.D.To make the not’s appearance more attractive.26.What can we guess about Australian coins? ________A.They are different in size or shape.B.They are required in school cafeterias.C.They are more frequently used than notes.D.They are more convenient for young people.27.What did Connor do to persuade the government? ________A.He wrote a letter to the leaders.B.He organized an online meeting.C.He sought support on the Internet.D.He requested a special Christmas gift.CAt this year’s Technology Forum, speakers include world-famous people, such as Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple Computer, and lesser-known individuals with great ideas to change the world. One of the latter is Jonny Cohen, a high school senior, green businessman and creator of Green Shields.Since Cohen was a child, he has been innovating and inventing. When he was 12 and took science classes at Northwestern University, he saw a school bus and had an idea: what if the shape of school bus was improved to make it more fuel efficient? This would greatly reduce the amount of pollution it produced. He set about making a wind tunnel in his parents’ garage and placed small metal plates or shields on toy school buses to test them. The result: his shields redirected the airflow over and around the bus, decreased wing drag, and produced better fuel economy and less pollution.Cohen went through various experiments to improve his Green Shields invention. With the help of MIT and Cook-Illinois Bus Company, which donated a full-sized bus for Cohen’s experiments, he now has a shield model that is inexpensive and easy to attach, enabling widespread adoption.How much of an impact can these shields have on climate change? Fuel consumption for the average US school bus is seven miles per gallon. Green Shields increases fuel efficiency by 10-20%,saving about 600 per bus per year, and costs only 30 to attach. Cohen and his partners are now trying to persuade the government to put Green Shields on all school buses.With almost half-a-million school buses in America using nearly 2.5 billion of fuel per year, a consumption reduction of 10-20% would make a big difference in pollution. Not to mention the roughly 285 million in annual savings on fuel.28.What can we learn about Jonny Cohen from the text? ________A.He has produced Green Shields independently.B.He has been employed to improve school buses.C.He is a world-famous businessman and inventor.D.He has a talent for finding and solving problems.29.How does Green Shields make a bus more fuel efficient? ________A.By reducing the amount of wind drag.B.By improving the quality of fuel used.C.By providing a wind tunnel for the bus.D.By changing the shape of the bus engine.30.Where did Cohen begin testing his shields? ________A.At Northwestern University.B.In his parents’ garage.C.At a local bus company.D.In an MIT lab.31.What’s the intended benefit of Cohen’s invention? ________A.To provide school buses with cheaper fuel.B.To reduce the cost of producing school buses.C.To increase the profits of the school bus industry.D.To make school buses more environmentally-friendly.DWe all know the feeling: looking at the computer screen, pretending to be interested in our homework, even though we really feel bored. But such feelings may soon be at an end, says Dr. Harry Witchel, head of the Essex Medical School. He believes that computers of the future will notice when people feel bored and even take action to stop it.Before you get concerned, the machine won’t be reading your mind. It will be observing the many movements you make while using a computer. It’s not interested in the big movements needed to use the machine—like moving a mouse or touching a screen-but small, barely noticeable movements like closing your eyes, moving in your seat or rubbing your face. Witchel calls these “boredom movements” and says they show how interested the person is in what they are reading or watching. The higher the interest level, the less movement!To test his theory, Witchel invited 27 people to perform various computer-based tasks. The activities ranged from playing online games (an interesting task)to reading documents like government laws that most people would find boring.A special video camera followed the participants’ movements as they completed each task. Just as the researcher expected, the “boredom movements” greatly decreased, by as much as 42%, when the subjects were very interested in what they were reading or seeing.Fortunately, Dr. Witchel isn’t planning to use his results to create machines that report students who are not paying attention at school. I nstead, he wants “movement sensing” technology to be built into future computers in order to improve students’ computer-based learning experience.The scientist says that by measuring the students’ interest level as they work, educators will be able to adj ust their materials in real-time to keep students focused. Witchel also believes that the technology can provide filmmakers with honest audience opinions and in the future, help to develop more intelligent robots.32.What does the underlined word “it” in P aragraph 1 refer to? ________A.Homework. B.A computer. C.Boredom. D.The future.33.Why did Dr. Witchel carry out his research? ________A.To discover how bored people move.B.To find out what makes people bored.C.To see if interested people are more active.D.To test the link between boredom and movement.34.Which movement would Witchel’s technology most likely pay attention to? ________A.Turning off the machine.B.Typing words on a keyboard.C.Surfing quickly between webpages.D.Moving one’s head fr om side to side.35.How will the new technology help education, according to Witchel? ________A.By reducing teachers’ workload.B.By maintaining students’ learning interest.C.By reporting students’ misbehavior in class.D.By making learning more like a computer game.第二节(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.选项中有两项为多余选项.Philadelphia is a city known for many things.

That’s more murals than any other city on Earth.(37)More than 20years ago, a New Jersey artist named Jane Golden started a program pairing troubled youth with artists to paint murals on a few buildings around the city. (38)The teenagers involved helped to create magnificent pieces of art, and there were other, even more important, benefits. The young people learned to cooperate and get along with many different kinds of people during the painting. They learned to be responsible, because they needed to follow a schedule to make sure the murals were completed. (39)It is hard for anyone to see the spectacular designs and not feel proud to be a part of Philadelphia.Take a walk around some of the poorest neighborhoods in Philadelphia and you will find beautiful works of art on the side and fronts of buildings. Of course the murals are not just in poor neighborhoods, but richer ones as well. Special buses take tourists to different parts of the city to see the various murals, which show the diverse ethnic groups that call Philadelphia home.(40)It is also a model for other cities throughout America seeking to help troubled youth.A.How did this come to be?B.What happened to the murals on Earth?C.They also learned to take pride in their community.D.But one fact about Philadelphia is not so well-known.E.From this some project, something magical happened.F.The program encouraged troubled youth to paint together with their teachers.G.As a result of its success, the murals program has now become the nation’s largest public art program.第三部分英语知识运用第一节完形填空When you give thanks for help, everyone benefits.

But there’s another classical dance form with a long history (61)has only recently burst onto the world scene. It is called classical Chinese dance.Classical Chinese dance is (62)incredibly demanding, refined, and expressive dance form. Alongside ballet, it is also one of the most comprehensive dance systems (63)(know)to humankind.(64)recently, few people outside China had ever heard of classical Chinese dance. One major reason was that when Chinese companies performed abroad, they often mixed Chinese dance with western dance style. And so the audience left the theater not sure exactly (65)they had just seen.In 2006,however,the Shen Yun Performing Arts Company(66)(establish)in New York. Its mission was to promote (67)(tradition)culture, and this included (68)(present)classical Chinese dance in its pure form. Not quite a decade later, classical Chinese dance has become much (69)(well)recognized and is starting to influence western ballet.Although they have significant differences, both ballet and classical Chinese dance have the ability to vividly tell (70)(story)and move us through beautiful art.第四部分写作第一节短文改错(满分10分)71.(10分)假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文.文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处.每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改.增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词.删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉.修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词.注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分.Dear Chris, Are you interested in coming with me to see a famous opera?

意为"测试",均不符合文意.故正确答案为A.55.D考查名词.结合上文,作者看到Karli 的生活发生积极的改变之后,自己也决定开始尝试向别人写感谢信这种方法.所以推断这里意为"他选择了一个以前从没(never)感谢过的人".nearly 意为"几乎,差不多",frequently 意为"频繁地",already 意为"已经",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.56.C考查动词.结合后半句句意,但是"我"最终还是发现了他的住址,推断出这里是"我"不知道"我"是否能找到他.locate 这里意为"定位,查找…的地点",符合文意.remember 意为"记住",recognize 意为"认出;识别",reward 意为"奖励",不符合文意.故正确答案为C.57.D考查名词.结合文意,在信中,"我"对于老师在前些年给"我"的指导(guidance)和支持表示了感谢.这里的guidance 是对于教师这个职业来说,给予学生的指导.degree 意为"程度",money 意为"金钱",gift 意为"礼物",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.58.C考查介词短语.结合文意,反过来(in

interested in coming with me to see a famous opera? It will∧performed at the Guangzhou Opera House at 2pm in May Day. I know you took great interest in Chinese culture, especially local opera. I think the perform will not only leave you with an unforgettably impression, but satisfy your interest in Chinese opera as well. If you can come, I suggest us should visit the Guangzhou Museum near the Opera Housebefore and after the opera. You decide. The museum is hosting a exhibition on Cantonese opera. If we go, I believe you can learn many about Chinese opera in there.详解:1.performed前面加be;考查动词的语态,主语it指代前一句中的a famous opera,与动词perform是动宾关系,故在情态动词will后面加be构成被动语态.2.in改为on;考查介词,表示时间时当具体到"在某一天"时要用介词on.3.took改为take;考查动词的时态,本句陈述一个事实,要用一般现在时.4.perform改为performance;考查名词,此处用名词形式作宾语从句的主语.5.unforgettably改为unforgettable;考查形容词,此处用形容词作定语修饰名词impression.6.us改为we;考查人称代词,这里I suggest后面跟一个从句做suggest的宾语,人称代词在从句中做主语,故用主格形式we.7.and改为or;考查连词,分析句意可知此处要用or表示选择关系,意为"在看戏剧之前或者之后".8.a改为an;考查不定冠词,此处用不定冠词泛指"一个",exhibition 以原因因素开头,故用an.9.many改为much;考查近义词辨析,用作代词时many指可数名词复数形式,much指不可数名词,此处指"学到很多",应该用much.10.去掉in;考查介词,there是副词,前面不能用介词.81.There are many options available getting around Guangzhou. When you just want to travel around the downtown area, I suggest that you hire a street bike. They are everywhere and best of all when you finish you can leave the bike where you like. We also have an excellent metro system and bus service. I recommend that you avoid using the buses as much as possible, as traffic jams are pretty common, especially during rush hour. The metro should be perfect for most places. If you want to go to the suburbs or countryside my father can drive us or you can even use one of the many car﹣hire services available. Looking forward to seeing you in Guangzhou.Yours, Li Hua. 亮点句型一:I recommend that you avoid using the buses as much as possible, as traffic jams are pretty common, especially during rush hour.我建议你尽量避免使用公共汽车,因为交通堵塞很常见,尤其是在交通高峰期.本句是一个虚拟语气的句子,recommend that sb should do 其中should 可以省略.亮点句型二:If you want to go to the suburbs or countryside my father can drive us or you can even use one of the many car﹣hire services available.如果你想去郊区或乡下,我的父亲可以开车送我们,或者你甚至可以使用许多租车服务之一、if引导的是条件状语从句,主句是一个并列句由my father can drive us 和you can even use one of the many car﹣hire services available构成.。

He started out collecting insects as a hobby , but eventually his longing for adventure led him to explore the world .Luckily for Wallace , Victorian Britain was discovering an interest in weird and wonderful insets ,so the demand from museums and private collections for these bests was growing . Wallace was able to make a living doing what he loved : collecting beetles and other insects .But his first trip of exploring the world ended in disaster . Wallace proceeded to the Amazon in South America . Its giant forests promised a wealth of new species , sure to put him on the scientific map . The trip took 6 weeks and involved every mode of transport in existence at the time . After four years Wallace had to watch in despair as his samples went up in flames ----including live animals he was bringing home that were trying to jump free of the flames . But he did not let it stop him .In 1854, Wallace set off on another adventure , this time to the Malay Archipelago . Wallace found himself humbled by the new and exciting things he saw. He later recalled : “ As I lie listening to these interesting sounds , I think how many besides myself have longed to see with their own eyes the many wonderful and beautiful thingswhich I am daily encountering .”In 1858, Wallace wrote what became as the …Temate essay “: a piece of writing that was to change our understanding of life forever . In his essay , Wallace argued that a species would only turn into another species if it was struggling for existence . Henry W. Bates was one of many scientists delighted by the idea of evolution by natural selection . In a letter to Wallace , he wrote :” The i dea is like truth itself , so simple and obvious that those who read and understand it will be stuck by its simplicity , and yet it is perfectly original .”56. __________finally caused Wallace to explore the world ?A.

There is a some equipment you can purchase to enhance the exper ience , but if you …ve already got a PS4 you can enter the world of VR for just $400. Other high –end offerings like the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift , as well as mobile options like Samsung‟s Gear VR, will get your head in the game .Wireless headphonesCombining ease of use with the ability to move wild around your home , gym or workplace , wireless headphones just make sense . And there are plenty of practical options to suit any budget . The Boss QuietComfort 35 wireless headphones are definitely worth a test drive , though . The full-size , around –ear Bluetooth headphones highlights active noise cancellation and double as a headset for making phone calls . They …ve earned the Editor …s Choice award at and can be purchased for less than $400 online.Digital camerasWhile your phone is a worthy assistant , there‟s no substitute for a real camera when it comes to taking the perfect picture .

Olympus PEN-FD. Yi Mi(C)Naquela Wright‟s life took an unexpected turn when she lost her eyesight as a teenager, but even when her world became immersed in darkness, the New Jersey resident didn‟t want to quit social media.Using Facebook was a challenge at first. Diagnosed in 2010 with pseudotumor cerebri, a rare health condition in which pressure increases around the brain and can result in the loss of vision, Wright learned how to use ascreen reader to read the site through the touch of keyboard and sound of a robotic voice. Still, when a friend sends her in a photo, Wright often has no clue what the image shows.Now Facebook is trying to solve this problem by exploiting the power of artificial intelligence to create new tools that not only describe items in a photo but allows users to ask what‟s in an image.“I can have a basic picture in my mind of what‟s going on in the picture and now I can comment on my own,” said Wright, who got to try out the new tools that are still being tested. “Of course, it‟s different, but it‟s something more than I had.”An estimated 285 million people are visually disabled globally, according to the World Health Organization, and research conducted by Facebook showed that blind users have trouble figuring out what‟s in a photo because the description isn‟t clear or doesn‟t exist.Facebook has made it easier to skim through the content on its website with a screen reader by improving HTML headings, adding alternative text for images, launching keyboard shortcuts, and more. Using artificial intelligence to describe photos is only a part of these ongoing efforts.With 1.5 billion users, Facebook isn‟t the only social media company that wants to improve its website for the visually impaired. Along with Facebook and other major tech firms, Twitter and LinkedIn have their own accessibility teams and belong to an initiative called “Teaching Accessibility.”Jeff Wieland, Facebook‟s head of accessibility engineering, said the group wants to educate more engineers, especially early on in college, about designing products that are compatible with the disabled and others. “We really don‟t want accessibility to be the luxury of a handful of companies,” Wieland said. “We want everything around the world to be built with accessibility in mind.”63. What tool helps the visually disabled to read Facebook?A. A screen readerB. A special keyboardC. A helpful robotD. HTML headings64 What can be inferred from the passage about the new tool created by Facebook?A. It adds a lot of shortcuts on the keyboard.B. It helps users to employ their senses other than sightC. It meets no competitors with its advanced technology.D. It inspires more engines to explore artificial intelligence65. The underlined phrase in the last paragraph “are compatible with” most probably means ________.A. are unaffordable toB. bring harm toC. keep company ofD. well suit66. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. Screen reader: tool to access social mediaB. Ongoing effort: strength to improve websitesC. Artificial intelligence: power to help the blindD. Teaching accessibility: initiative to educate engineerSection CDirections:Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentenceYour Own Best FriendTalking to yourself may seem a little shameful. If you‟ve ever been overheard criticizing yourself for a foolish mistake or practicing a tricky speech ahead of time. you‟ll have felt the social restriction against communicating with yourself in words. According to the well-known saying, talking to yourself is the first sign of madness.___67___ Talking to ourselves, whether out loud or silently in our heads, is a valuable tool for thought. Far from being a sign of foolishness, self-talk allows us to plan what we are going to do, manage our activities, regulate our emotions and even create a narrative of our experience.Take a trip to any preschool and watch a small child playing with her toys. You are very likely to hear her talking to herself: offering herself directions and giving voice to her frustrations. ___68___ We do a lot of it when we are young – perhaps one reason for our shyness about continuing with it as adults.As children, according to the Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky, we use private speech to regulate our actions in the same way that we use public speech to control the behavior of other. ___69___.Psychological experiments have shown that the distancing effect of our words can give us a valuable perspective on our actions. One recent study suggested that self-talk is most effective when we address ourselves in the second person:“you”rather than “I”.We internalize the private speech we use as children – but we never entirely put away the out-loud version. ___70___ You‟re sure to see an athlete or two getting themselves ready for a sharp phrase or scolding themselves after a bad shot.Both kinds of self-talk seem to bring a range of benefits to our thinking. Those words to the self, spoken silently or aloud, are so much more than lazy talk.Ⅳ. Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Moustache(胡子)for Cash“Movember”, as the annual event is known, sees men in countries including the UK, US and Australia grow out their facial hair while collecting sponsorship money from friends, family and colleagues, with the money going to cancer charities.The month of no shaving began unofficially in 2003, when a pair of men from Australia persuaded their family to join them in growing a moustache in order to encourage men to get themselves checked for cancer, which is seen as distasteful by some males. A year later, the group decided to set up the Movember Foundation, asking friends and colleagues to offer donations of money to support their efforts, and raised a massive A$54,000 which was shared between a number of health projects. With thanks most likely a social media, Movember soon went global and the foundation now operates worldwide. having raised over £440 million since 2004. Theeffects of the fundraising are wide-reaching, which had made a significant discovery in the treatment of cancer.The issue of some men being too self-willed to visit their doctor for a checkup, or perhaps being raised in a culture of “touch it out”,has led some males to neglect their health, which may mean it could be too late if something potentially deadly did develop. However, Movember is helping to break down the shame of male to appeal to men in a way that other campaigns just don‟t – with a sort of blokey①jokiness.①blokey:behaving in a way that is supposed to be typical of men, especially men enjoying themselves in a group.V. TranslationDirection:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72. 永远不要对你孩子的缺点熟视无睹。

When the studio didn't want me for the film - it wanted somebody as well known as Paul - he stood up for me, I don't know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sring four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft〔技艺〕and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other - but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core〔核心〕of our relationship off the screen.We shared the belief that if you're fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back - he with his Newman's Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and l didn't see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.I last saw him a few months ago. He'd been in and out of the hospital. He and 1 both knew what the deal was, and we didn't talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn't need a lot of words.4. Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to the author at first?A. Paul Newman wanted it.B. The studio powers didn't like his agent.C. He wasn't famous enough.D. The director recommended someone else.5. Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?A. They were of the same age.B. They worked in the same theater.C. They were both good actors.D. They had similar characteristics.6. What does the underlined words “that” i n paragraph 3 refer to?A. Their belief.B. Their care for children.C. Their success.D. Their support for each other.7. W hat is the author's purpose in writing the text?A. To show his love of films.B. To remember a friend.C. To introduce a new movie.D. To share his acting experience.CTerrafugia Inc. said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight, bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year. The vehicle–named theTransition–has two seats, four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and burns 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don't expect it to show up in too many driveways. It's expected to cost $279,000. And it won't help if you're stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway.Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, an airline Industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. The government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly. The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards.Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration's decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes. Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition, a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet.8. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The basic data of the Transition.B. The advantages of flying cars.C. The potential market for flying cars.D. The designers of the Transition.9. Why is the Transition unlikely to show up in too many driveways?A. It causes traffic jams.B. It is difficult to operate.C. It is very expensive.D. It bums too much fuel.10. What is the government's attitude to the development of the flying car?A. Cautious.B. Favorable.C. Ambiguous.D. Disapproving.11. What is the best title for the text?A. Flying Car at Auto ShowB. The Transition's First FlightC. Pilots' Dream Coming TrueD. Flying Car Closer to RealityDWhen a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn't sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds, VOCs for short.Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked, It's a plant's way of crying out. But is anyone listening? Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbors react.Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to theattackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don't know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to "overhear" the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn't a tree, intentional back and forth.Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(亲密的)than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There's a whole lot going on.12. What does a plant do when it is under attack?A. It makes noises.B. It gets help from other plants.C. It stands quietly.D. It sends out certain chemicals.13. What does the author mean by "the tables are turned" in paragraph 3?A. The attackers get attacked.B. The insects gather under the table.C. The plants get ready to fight back.D. The perfumes attract natural enemies.14. Scientists find from their studies that plants can .A. predict natural disastersB. protect themselves against insectsC. talk to one another intentionallyD. help their neighbors when necessary15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The world is changing faster than ever.B. People have stronger senses than before.C. The world is more complex than it seems.D. People in Darwin's time were more imaginative.第二节(共5小题;每题2分,总分值10分)根据短义内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

Raised in a fatherless home, my father was extremely tightfisted towards us children. His attitude didn’t soften as I grew into adulthood and went to college.

informationD.care about employment trends.24.They say necessity is the mother of invention.While that might not be the case for every invention,most of coolest inventions are definitely useful.The levitating LightbulbThe US artist and scientist Simon Morris got the idea of making lightbulb float from hoverboards(悬浮滑板).But the floating is not the most amazing part.It was done simply by putting magnets in the bottom of the bulb and in the wooden base.The rejection force between the opposite ends of the magnets does the job.What's new here is a technology called induction(电磁感应).It allows the ligtbulb to get power from the base even when they aren't in contact.Shoes that tie themselvesThey're not what you think﹣shoelaces that tie themselves in the way we tie them.Instead,the new shoes have small motors that control their laces.When you step in them,your feet will hit a sensor in the shoes and the motor will automatically tighten the laces.There are also two buttons on side of the shoes to tighten and loosen them so you can control the laces by yourself.They could actually give athletes an advantage during competitions.They are also useful for people who cannot move their arms or fingers easily.The no﹣touch thermometerMaybe,it's an impossible task for little kids putting a thermometer in their armpits and staying still for minutes.Now,using infrared(红外线) technology,scientists have invented thermometers that take the body's temperature without contacting the body.Users can simply put the thermometer 2.5 centimeters form a patient's forehead and press the button,and it can get the reading in two seconds.Not touching the body also means cleaner processes,since patients needn't worry about whether someone else has used the thermometer before.24.Which of the following about the levitating Lightbulb is true?A.It runs only by contacting the base.B.It gets power by floating from hoverboards.C.It works by the rejection force from magnets.D.It operates by using infrared technology.25.Who do you think possibly use self﹣tying shoes?A.Coaches participating in the sports meeting.B.The elderly whose fingers cannot move.C.Athletes who cannot run fast enough.D.Persons who are injured in feet.26.When used,the no﹣touch thermometer is .A.quick and cleanB.modern but complexC.neat but inconvenientD.portable and fashionable27.What page of a magazine does the passage come from?A.Culture.B.Life.C.Medicine.D.News.28."Freelance retail consultant"refers to daigou in Chinese,or overseas people who buy goods for customers in the Chinese mainland.It's estimated that there are 40,000 daigou in Australia,most of whom are young migrants or international students looking for ways to help cover their rent and university cost.These freelance retail consultants have created thousands of trading routes,both small and big,into China.Shops in Australia sold out of instant formula(婴儿配方奶粉),leaving many Australia parents unable to buy their preferred brands.The Sydney Morning Herald reported last year that half of Australia's infant formula sold went to China through customers selling to other customers.Because of this,daigou have received criticism from Australia media.The Sydney Morning post even suggested that the Australia government should put a limit on instant formula exports.However,not everyone dislikes daigou."We think daigou are good for both the local economy…and they are very good for our business,"Peter Nathan,the chief executive of A2 Milk,a New Zealand infant formula maker,told Reuters."We clearly believe they are a positive force."Others agree that nothing is wrong with the practice."People are buying these products legally on the Australia market…they're not illegally being exported to China,"Tim Foulds,head of research at Euro monitor Australia and New Zealand,told The Washington Post.28.Why do most daigou in Australia buy goods for Chinese customers?A.To improve living conditions.B.To satisfy import demand.C.To pay their expenses.D.To get sales experience.29.According to the passage,which of the following is right?A.Australian parents criticize daigou.B.Consumers prefer milk made in Australia.C.Australian government has limited exports.D.Different ideas about daigou exist in Australia.30.We can infer from the last two paragraphs that .A.the practice of daigou will balance supply and demandB.daigou will probably be welcomed in New ZealandC.infant formula will grow in popularity in ChinaD.daigou will be a legal job in Australia soon31.What's the attitude of the author to Daigou?A.Supportive.B.Doubtful.C.Negative.D.Objective.32.Famous people have a lot of influence on cultural trends,like it or not.When Amal Clooney wears a Stella McCarney dress,sales go way up.However,one trend that seems harmless﹣﹣﹣but is actually damaging﹣is the pressure on stars to have their photos taken with rare animals.Famous people who are asked to have photos taken with wild animals for a magazine spread or who do so while on vacation always have good intentions and even love animals.This makes them easy targets for the often greedy amusement parks and fake animal centers.These businesspeople love the thought of sharing pictures of a star hugging a baby tiger or a whale.Kind people are naturally drawn to places that claim to offer rare animals safety and are eager to see elephants paint,to hug baby bear or to swim with dolphins.However,it has shown that many of these businessmen are breeders,dealers or exhibitors that are using Hollywood's goodwill for their own ends.In some Asian countries,elephants are kept in camps.A few camps are working to help elephants in trouble,but the vast majority are not,and training methods are barbaric.As soon as the cameras are gone after someone like Prince William takes a photo with an elephant,the chains go back on.Fans,tell the stars:Stay away from rare animal photos,and the animals will be grateful.Of course,you don't have to be famous to make a difference.Whether right here at home or at a place abroad,every one of us must fight the temptation to take a photo with an elephant or hug a baby tiger.32.Why are Oprah and Amal Clooney mentioned in Paragraph 1?A.To introduce the topic of the passage.B.To promote the cultural influence on stars.C.To remind people how important the trend is.D.To show famous people's pressure from wild animals.33.What can we learn from the passage?A.The businesspeople offer chances to stars to get close to animals.B.Famous stars use photos with rare animals to make a difference.C.Businessmen take advantage of stars'goodwill to earn money.D.The kind and rich people are easily attracted to visit wild animals.34.What does the underlined word"barbaric"in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Effective.B.Cruel.C.Scientific.D.Kind.35.What is the passage mainly about?A.The number of elephants and tigers is increasing.B.Keeping away from animal pictures can protect them.C.People will be encouraged to take photos with animals.D.The famous may have a negative influence on cultural trend.36.Anger is a completely normal,usually healthy,human emotion.(36)The problems are at work,in your personal relationships,and in the overall quality of your life.This brochure is meant to help you understand and control anger.You can't get rid of,or avoid the things or the people that cause you angry,nor can you change them.(37)There are psychological tests that measure the intensity(强度)of angry feelings.(38).But chances are good that if you do have a problem with anger,you already know it.If you find yourself acting in ways that seem out of control and frightening,you might need finding better ways to deal with this emotion.(39) A number of things.One cause may be genetic or physiological:(40)And these signs are present from a very early age.Another may be sociocultural.Anger is often regarded as negative.We're taught that it's all right to express anxiety,depression,or other emotions but not to express anger.As a result,we don't learn how to handle it or channel it constructively.Research has also found that family background plays a role.A.How can you control your anger?B.What makes people become angry?C.You can use the measure to control your anger.D.However,you can learn to control your reactions.E.But when it gets out of control,it can lead to problems.F.There is evidence that some kids are born touchy and easily angered.G.You can know how likely you are to get angry,and how well you handle it.第三部分英语知识运用第一节完形填空(共1小题;每小题1.

caused a lively debate.China has long been considered a conservative country where talking about sex is embarrassing,especially among kids.Such closed﹣minded and backward attitudes have led (62) a
