But your primary concern is to let them know they are valued.Skills and Experience Required:You will have the right values and great listening skills. You will be honest and patient. You will have the ability to drive a car and to communicate in fluent written and spoken English since you'll have to help those people with different learning disabilities. Previous care-related experience will be a great advantage for you.21. The text is meant to ______ .A. leave a noteB. send an invitationC. present a documentD. carry an advertisement22. What does the underlined part mean?A. You'll make others' lives more meaningful with this job.B. You'll arrive home just in time from this job.C. You'll earn a good salary from this job.D.

Which of the following can first be chosen as a volunteer?A. The one who can drive a car.B. The one who has done similar work before.C. The one who has patience to listen to others.D. The one who can use English to communicate(B)Some people are lucky enough to be born with a good sense of direction and even if they have only visited a place once, they will be able to find it again years later.I am one of those unfortunate people who have poor sense of direction and I may have visiteda place time after time but I still get lost on my way there. When I was young I was so shy that I never dared ask complete strangers the way and so I used to wander round in circles and hope that by some chance I would get to the spot I was heading for.I am no longer too shy to ask people for direction, but I often receive replies that puzzle me. Often people do not like to admit that they didn’t know their hometown and will insist on telling you the way, even if they do not know it; others, who are anxious to prove that they know their hometown very well, will give you a long list of directions which you cannot possibly hope to remember, and still others do not seem to be able to tell between their left and their right and you find in the end that you are going in the opposite direction to that in which you should be going.If anyone ever asks me the way to somewhere, I always tell them I am a stranger to the town in order to avoid giving them wrong direction but even this can have embarrassing results. Once I was on my way to work when I was stopped by a man who asked me if I would direct him the way to the Sunlight Building. I gave my usual reply, but I had not walked on a few steps when I realized that he had asked for directions to my office building. However, at this point, I decided it was too late to turn back and search for him out of the crowd behind me as I was going to meet with someone at the office and I did not want to keep him waiting. Imagine my embarrassment when my secretary showed in the very man who had asked for directions of my office and his astonishment when he recognized me as the person he had asked.25. What is the writer going to do when someone asks him for direction?A. He will direct the right way to the person willingly.B. He will reply to it by the means of being a stranger to the town.C. He will give the very person long list of direction.D. He is going to show the man an opposite direction.26. Why did the writer consider himself to be an unlucky dog?A. Because of his poor sense of direction.B. Because he always forgot the way home.C. Because he did not have any friend.D. Because he used to be shy and dared not ask others the way.27. How did the visitor feel when he was showed into the very room?A. He felt strange.B. He felt embarrassed.C. He felt very sad.D. He felt astonished.28. Who showed the right way to the interviewee according to the passage?A. Someone we don’t know.B. The writer did it for himself.C. The secretary did so.D. A warm-hearted old lady did such a thing(C)OF course, Ms Cratty wasn’t really my aunt and, out of fear, I never called her that to her face. I only called her “My Aunt Fannie (俚语)” because the name always made my fatherchuckle (轻声地笑) and caused my mother to look seriously at both of us – at me for being disrespectful of my elder, and at my father for encouraging my bad behavior. I enjoyed both reactions so I looked for every opportunity to work the name into as many conversations as possible.As a young woman, my mother had worked in the kitchen of a large farmhouse owned by Ms Cratty and her twin brother. Neither had married, and they had no children. My father once told me that it was because they were both too mean to share their family’s money or pass it on. Ms Cratty was famous for her jam and for never sharing the recipe with another one. Even though my mother knew the recipe , she never made the jam without Ms Cratty kitchen to direct the process and keep the secret.Each August, my mother would prepare me for Aunt Fannie’s visit. One year, after I had been particularly helpful with the jam process Aunt Fannie gave me a quarter and then made me promise that I would never spend it. “Hold onto this quarter,” she said, “and someday you will be rich. I still have my very first quarter, given to me by my grandfather.” It had obviously worked for her. So, I put the quarter in my dresser drawer, and waited to become rich.I now have the jam recipe and the quarter from Aunt Fannie. Neither has made me wealthy, but I keep them as reminders to hold onto the valuable things in life. Money can make you feel rich for a while, but it is the relationships and the memories of time spent with friends and family that truly leave you wealthy. And that is a fortune that anyone can build.29.Why did the author prefer to call Aunt Fannie “My Aunt Fannie”?A. Because she wanted to show respect for her.B. Because she believed that made her seem closer to her.C. Because she loved to see her parents’ responses to it.D. Because she didn’t like her and thus m ade fun of her.30.According to the second paragraph, the author’s mother _______.A. owned the large farmhouse with Aunt FannieB. disliked Aunt Fannie’s meanness and the way she would never shareC. didn’t know the exact way to make the jamD. tried to make Aunt Fannie believe that the secret recipe was safe31.The author used to believe that the quarter given to her by Aunt Fannie ______.A. was a reminder of the valuable things in her lifeB. would bring her good luck and make her richC. was a small reward for her help with the jam processD. was the exact one that Aunt Fannie had received from her grandfather32.The author thinks that we can feel wealthy if we _______.A. have a certain secret recipeB. have lasting love and friendshipC. share our wealth with othersD. have good fortune and money(D)Worried about how many calories you will get in that piece of pizza, chocolate cake or bag of chips? A new iPhone application (应用程序) MealSnap may help. Users just need to take a picture of the meal with the phone, and it will give a calorie read-out almost immediately.MealSnap was developed by DailyBurn, a health social network that focuses on helping its users lead healthier lifestyles. It has created several other health and diet-related iPhone applications. The application gives users a quick reply. To do that, it matches the taken picture to a databank (数据库) with the calorie information of nearly 500,000 kinds of food. Users then get the range of calories for the meal that is photographed.We started with something simple—an apple. A couple of minutes later, the application replied that it was an apple and between 64 and 96 calories. More impressive was the reply we received after sending a photo of a mixed salad bowl. MealSnap replied that the bowl contained “yellow rice with corn, boiled eggs and beans” and that the food was between532 and 789 calories.Mr. Smith, director of DailyBurn, said that usual calorie counting needed a long time, but that the application made it easier to know the calories in food. That is why it is so popular among those who are trying hard to lose weight.In addition, MealSnap can act as a food diary. No need to write down what they’ve eaten, the photoes will be stored. The users can keep a visual log (视觉的记录). Mr. Smith said, “it’s like a food journey, but easier. All you do is to take the picture. The simple act of recording something can cause a psychological (心理的) change that can help people on their health journey. Knowing the calorie range makes me think more about what I’m eating.”MealSnap is available on the iTunes for £1.79 or $2.99 in the US .33.The purpose of DailyBurn is to________.A．help people find ways to lose weightB．make iPhone more popularC．persuade people to buy iPhone productsD．help people have a healthy life34.What can be learned from the third paragraph?A．MealSnap is only useful for simple things.B．The result of MealSnap isn’t always right.C．MealSnap can also tell what the food is.D．MealSnap needs a long time to show the calorie range.35. Which of the following statements about MealSnap is TRUE?A．It has been put into the market.B．People will have a physical change by using it.C．It’s popular because it was developed by DailyBurn.D．People have to link iPhone with the Internet to use it.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。
河南省鹤壁市淇滨高级中学2020学年高一英语4月月考试题
淇滨高中2020学年下学期高一年级英语5月月考试卷第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题;每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A 、B 、C 和 D ）中，选出最佳选项，并在题卡上将该项涂黑。
AWhen you’re on the go（四处奔走）, your best friend and resource（资源） can be your phone. In the age of smart phones, apps are like guiding stars （指路明灯）: They can point you in the right direction for a hotel, list expenses（花费）, send postcards, and much more. When used together, these apps can be the basic travel tool, placing a wealth of（很多的） information at your fingertips（指尖） no matter where you are on the planet（星球）. U.S. News Travel has picked the essential（重要的） travel apps, known for their utility（实用性）and reliability（可靠性）. Best of all, they cost absolutely（绝对地） nothing.Trip ItYour Personal Travel Agent（代理人）Be your own travel agent and plan every detail（细节） of your trip-- from car rental（租赁） to accommodating（住宿的） restaurants-- with Trip It. You can make travel schedule（日程安排） by hand, or simply forward（转寄）the email confirmations（确认书） of your flight, rental car, train tickets, and hotels to plans.Weather FreeYour Go-To Meteorologist(气象学者)Stop trying to explain the weather forecast（预报）on the evening news (particularly when it's in aforeign language.) The Weather Free app informs（告知） you (in English) of the climate in various（不同的） locations（地点）. It features（以...为特色）the local weather, and other key factors（因素）that will inform your decision about what to wear before stepping outside（外出）.GobyYour Event GuruWhen you're in a foreign（外国的）city, you sometimes look around and ask: Where are all t hepeople? Goby has the answer. This app pinpoints（准确地指出）the neighborhood （附近的）hot spots（热闹的地区）(including museums, hotels, eateries（餐馆）, and more) in yourneighborhood. But its true value（价值）comes in finding nearby events（大事件）. You'll discover concerts, plays, and more right around the corner.21.What is the advantage of using travel apps picked by the U.S. News Travel?A. They cannot solve any problem you come across.B. They increase（增加） your travel budget（预算）.C. They exercise your fingertips.D. They are reliable and free of charge（收费）.22.With the help of the travel apps used together, travelers can do the following things EXCEPT__________.A. rent a carB. decide what to wearC. look for a friend while travelingD. find the nearby museums23.W here are the readers likely to read the passage above?A.In a geography textbook（课本）.B. In a medicine（医学）magazine.C. On a popular website.D. In a business report（商业报告）.BEarly in the 16th century men were trying to reach（到达） Asia by traveling west from Europe（欧洲）. In order to find Asia they had to find a way past South America（南美洲）. The man who finally found the way from the Atlantic Ocean（大西洋） to the Pacific（太平洋） was Ferdinand Magellan (麦哲伦). Magellan sailed from Seville in August, 1519 with 5 ships and about 280 men. Fourteen months later, after spending（度过） the cold winter on the coast of Patagonia, he discovered（发现） the channel（河道） which is now called Magellan Strait (海峡). In November, 1520, after many months of dangers from rocks and storms, the 3 remaining（剩下的） ships entered the ocean on the other side of South America. They then continued（继续）, hoping to reach Asia. But they did not see any land until they reached the islands off the coast of Asia. Before they arrived at these islands, later known as thePhilippines (菲律宾), men were dying of starvation (饥饿). While they were staying in the Philippines, Magellan was killed in battle. The remaining officers then had to get back to Spain. They decided to sail round Africa. After many difficulties, one ship with eighteen men sailed into Seville three years after leaving. They were all that remained of Magellan’s exploration. However, their achievement（成就） was great. They were the first men to sail round the world.24.T he purpose of Magellan’s ex ploration was to ________.A. find a seaway（海路） from the Atlantic to the Pacific.B. sail round the world.C. carry men to Philippines.D. make a voyage to Asia.25. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage concerning（与...有关） the exploration?A. Cold winter in Patagonia.B. Lack of equipment（缺乏装备）.C. The death of Magellan.D. Dangers from rocks and storms.26. The number of the ships lost on the WHOLE exploration was ________.A. twoB. threeC. fourD. five27. The best title for this passage is ________.A. The First Exploration to Sail round the WorldB. The Most Dangerous ExplorationC. The Discovery of the PhilippinesD. The Discovery of Magellan’s StraitCHave you ever found yourself in this situation（情形）: You hear a songyou used to sing when you were a child –a bit of nostalgia(怀旧) or “blast （冲击波）from the past,” as we say. But it is not a distant（遥远的）childhood memory（童年回忆）. The words（歌词） come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago.Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages.Here is what they did. Researchers took 60 adults（成年人） and randomly （随机地） divided（划分） them into three groups of 20. Then they gave the groups three different types of “listen-and-repeat（听及重复）” learning conditions. Researchers had one group simply speak the words. They had the second group speak the words to a rhythm（伴着节奏）. And they asked the third group to sing the words.All three groups studied words from the Hungarian（匈牙利的） language for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series of（一系列的） language tests （测试） to see what they remembered.Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people know the language. It does not share any roots（根系） with Germanic（德国的） or Romance（罗马的） languages, such as Italian or Spanish. After the tests were over, the singers came out（出现） on top. The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overall （全面的） performance（表现）. They did the best in most of the tests. They also performed two times better than those who simply（仅仅） learned the words by speaking them.Dr. Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are contained（包含） in a catchy（易记的） 3, or memorable（值得纪念的） 4, tune（曲调） 5.Dr. Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle（挣扎） to learn foreign languages. On the University of Edinburgh’s website Dr. Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experimental（实验的） evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for future research in this area（领域）.”28. The “song” mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to__________.A. recall（回忆） the pastB. attract the readersC. introduce（引进） the topicD. compare the childhood with the present29. According to the passage which language doesn’t share the same root withGermanic or Romance languages?A. Hungarian.B. Spanish.C. Italian.D. English.30. Based on the last two paragraphs, we can conclude（总结） that __________.A. singing is not the best way to learn a language.B. the brain probably works best when the foreign language learners sing the words.C. a listen-repeat method is very complex（复杂的） for any language learner.D. Dr. Katie Overy and Dr. Ludke disagree（不同意） with each other.31. In which situation can the finding（发现） of the research be applied （应用）?A. A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak.B. A child is going to have his first music lesson.C. A student is going to learn a new English song.D. An American is going to learn some Chinese.DThe average（平均） American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch television at age three, however, today it is nine months. Yet, most parents think that television has a bad influence（影响） on their children. For example, in the early 1970s, my parents believed that my bad eyesight（视力） was the result of sitting too close to the screen（屏幕）, and they therefore made my stay at least six feet（英尺） from it. Today, most people have no such worry, but many new ridiculous （荒谬的）sayings have appeared:* TV makes kids stupid（愚蠢的）. Many children watch more educational（教育性的） programs（节目） when they are pre-schoolers（学龄前儿童）. When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children.* TV makes kids violent（暴力的）. The real story is not so simple. Hundreds of studies show that watching violence on TV makes children more aggressive （好斗的）. But a study of over 5000 children also finds that some positive programs make children kinder. The problem is that kids are increasingly （越来越） watching shows with violence instead of those suitable（合适的）for their age.* Sitting around watching TV makes kids overweight（超重）. An experiment finds that when children watch less television, they do lose extra（额外的） weight; however, reducing their television time does not make them more active. The real problem lies in（在于） snacking, a widespread（广泛传播的） habit for kids, and junk food（垃圾食品） advertisements.* TV helps kids get to sleep. The opposite（相反的） is true. The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular（不规律的） sleep and nap （小睡）patterns. Allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution.32 . Which one is the advantage of educational TV programs?A. They will make children solve difficult problems better than others.B. They will improve children’s ability（能力）to get along with others.C. They are likely to make children more aggressive.D. They will make sure of children’s success in the future.33.Why are children spending much time watching TV likely to be fat?A. Watching TV makes children lazy（懒散的）and inactive（不积极的）.B. Children are attracted by the advertisement on TV.C. Watching TV doesn’t burn up（燃烧）as much fat as doing sports.D. Children like to snack while watching TV.34.What influence does watching TV have on a child’s sleep?A. Children are likely to sleep deeper after watching TV.B. Children’s sleep time will be greatly increased（增加）.C. It will make children form a bad habit（习惯）of sleeping.D. It will make children sleep easier.35.What is the purpose of this text?A. To reduce（减少）people’s knowledge of watching TV.B. To inform（告知）parents of the advantages（优点）of watching TV.C. To explain the bad influences that watching TV has on children.D. To correct parents’wrong ideas of television’s effect on children.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。

AXiaofan, a smart boy from Shenzhen, used to have difficulty in getting up on time, and his alarm clock was of no use at all. It made him very upset.

After that, he took out a tool box and connected his tape player with the new tape to his alarm clock. A special alarm clock was born. At a certain time in the morning, the tape player would play soft music with a low and sweet voice of a young girl, “Wake up, please.”Five minutes later, the tape player would play again, and it might be loud music. At the same time, he could hear a recording of his parent, “Wake up at once, or you’ll be late!”Several days later, Xiaofan got used to the sound of the recordings. After the recordings, he was still sleepy, and even felt asleep again. That was terrible!

So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t s ell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry.” the salesman said with a smile.“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more.

Then we went on our way after saying goodbye.Later in the kitchen at home, as I cooked our meal, my daughter Betty walked up to me. When I turned around, I nearly knocked her down. “Get out of the way!” I shouted angrily. She ran away, crying.That night, when I lay in bed, my husband said to me. “You were so rude to Betty. Go and look around on the kitchen floor, and you’ll find some flowers there. Betty brought those for you. She picked them herself pink, yellow, and your favourite blue.”When I heard this, I thought deeply. “While meeting with a stranger, I was calm and polite, but with my daughter, I was not patient.” I felt sad and tears began to fall.I quietly went to Betty’s bed, “Wake up, my dear!” I said, “Are these the flowers you picked for me?” she smiled. “I found them by the tree.

I still love you anyway.”I kissed her and said, “I love you too and I do love the flowers.”That day Betty gave me a lesson on how to get along with each other in the family.

AIt’s clear that we have an interest in artifi cial intelligence, and kids in particular seem to love a good robot movie. If you have little (or big) robot fans in your house, here are some movies that will interest them.※Sid the Science Kid: The MovieSid the Science Kid: The Movie follows Sid and Gabriella on an exciting trip to the Super Ultimate Science Museum. They tour the museum going from one exciting scientific adventure to another with an amazing robot tour guide Bobbybot. But when a program error in Bobbybot occurs, Sid and his friend have to work together to stop him before he destroys the museum. In addition to Bobbybot, there are several other silly robots that go about making trouble around the museum.$8 from AmazonRecommended for kids aged 2-6※Robots (2005)Rodney Copperbottom decides to move to Robot City to follow his dream of becoming a great inventor in the movie Robots. However, life in the big city isn’t all that Rodney expected, and he meets many challenges and makes friends along the way. As Rodney fights a giant and helps old broken-down robots, he helps everyone realize that shiny and new things are not always best.$5 from AmazonRecommended for ages 5 and up※Real Steel (2011)Robot boxing is the super sport in this slightly futuristic (幻想未来的) world in the movie Real Steel. A young boy who has lost his mother spends some time with the father he never knew, and the two bond over making a robot that may have a chance to win in the ring.

All the three movies.B. Robots (2005).C. Real Steel (2011).D. Sid the Science Kid: The Movie.BWe walked slowly through the wet grass, our eyes searching for the enemy. I wondered why our army wasn’t throwing bombs (炸弹) when we knew they were there that Normandymorning. Suddenly, machine-gun fire broke the quiet. We hit the ground, sheltered from the shots by a low stone wall a few feet ahead.My radioman called the commander (指挥官) to report as I asked two soldiers to help me find the enemy and knock out the machine gun. While I was on one knee to talk to my guys, I heard an explosion (爆炸声) — and then I was on my back.“Lieutenant! Lieutenant! You’ve been hit!” the radioman shouted.Two doctors took me to an aid station. A doctor put a bandage on my bloody knee; then the doctors drove me to a nearby field hospital. They carried me into a tent where a great number of wounded soldiers were lined up on the ground. I watched the nurses give me a shot (注射) before things went black. When I woke up, I was lying on a bed, wearing nothing but my dog tags and a blanket.“Wake up, Lieutenant!” a nurse shouted. “You’ve got to get on a plane —you’re flying to a hospital in England!”I felt frightened and nervous. All my things lay in piles of equipment. Everything could be superseded by new ones except the photo of my new bride, Ellen, which I always carried with me. “I’m not going until I get my wife’s picture,” I said. “It’s in the gas mask cover you took away from me.”The nurse looked at me for a while. I must look very concerned to her. I knew the nurse could make me go, but instead she said, “OK. I’ll see if I can find it.” Then she ran out to search through the piles. Time stood still until finally she came running out of breath back into our tent.“I’ve got it!” she shouted, waving the pic ture in her upraised hand.How she found it I’ll never know, but I’m glad she did. That photograph comforted me through tough times. Now — 69 years later — it sits on my bedside table.25. What was the author doing according to the first two paragraphs?A. Training new soldiers.B.

What does the underlined word “superseded” in Paragraph 6 mean?A. created.B. destroyed.C. replaced.D. discovered.28. Why did the nurse agree to go to find the picture for the author?A. Because she was sure she could find it.B. Because she knew it meant a lot to the author.C. Because it was her fault that it was gone.D. Because she was curious about the picture.CBefore I started college, a lot of older people gave advice to me. Make sure that you go to class, get enough sleep, wash your clothes and, most importantly, be particular about with whom you spend time. Your friends in college m atter and they’ll end up being the most important and best friends you ever make.From what I’ve seen, people seem to end up closer with their college friends than with ones from other stages of their lives. Sure, your high school friends will always hold a special place in your heart, along with your youth. But those times included stricter rules, more parental control, less self-discovery and, probably fewer embarrassing( 令人尴尬的)adventures.The friends you make in college are the ones who get to stand by your side while you break away from childhood and push into adulthood. You know that bad time in your life when your parents aren’t around to make sure your dentist(牙医)appointments are scheduled, but you really need to have that bad tooth out. Well, It’s fine. Your friends understand how afraid you are to talk to your dentist’s secretary over the phone because you have no idea how your insurance works. They’ll help you.T here’s something special about being together through the disorganized times. Enjoy it and grow together. When you go through this confusing and messy period of your life, your college friends become your family, see you through everything-the good, the bad and the ugly.College is a difficult, yet beautiful experience. When your family and childhood friends are far away, your new friends matter more than ever. You laugh, cry and singtogether and through it all you develop a bond unique to your college experiences and young adulthood. It’s one that will last a lifetime.29. What should a college student do in older people’s eyes?A. Mind his manners.B. Make more friends.C. Learn to organize his life.D. Be particular about his goals.30.What is the example of dentist appointments used to show?A. One needs his family when he is ill.B. College students also fear to see dentists.C. One can learn a lot from his college friendsD. College friends help one through a hard time.31.What’s the best title of the text?A. Help friends outB. College friends matterC. How to start a college lifeD. Laugh, cry and sing with friendsDI once did an Internet search for how many studies have been done on sadness and depression. The number was about 40,000. Then I did a search for studies on happiness. There were only about 40 studies that came up. I smiled and then said to myself, “It’s almost like we all need to smile on purpose.”Now, I can hear some of you saying, “Well, what if I don’t feel like smiling? What do you want me to do?” Well, I believe that if we make ourselves smile on purpose, or even force ourselves to smile, then we have done something positive instead of negative in that moment. Besides, we may also improve the value of our faces and ourselves. Remember, nobody wants to be around someone who is wearing a frown.In addition, not only will we be making this world a better place, with our purposeful smiles, and encouraging more happiness and less sadness studies, but we will actually use fewer facial muscles by smiling instead of frowning. That’s right, my young, good-looking folks (人们). Using fewer facial muscles will help us keep a younger looking face that hopefully will never be marked by the lines of hardness and depression.What’s more, not only does smiling on purpose help improve the value of our facesand make us more attractive to others, but it also helps our whole body. Smiling causes the release of the feel-good matter from our brains, which then runs joyously through our little bodies. As a side benefit, this sort of joyfulness within us is also likely to improve our soci al lives. Now that’s something to smile about, isn’t it?Now teens, go to learn, lead, and lay the way to a better world for all of us. Remember to practice the habit of smiling on purpose. It will improve your looks, your social life, health, and eventually your career. And once again, thanks in advance for all you do, and all you will do.32. The author mentions the Internet search to .A. explain why people feel sadB. bring out the topic of the passageC. introduce researchers’ study resu ltsD. prove the convenience of the Internet33. Why can smiling make us look younger according to the text?A. Because fewer muscles on the face are used.B. Because people tend to have a younger heart.C. Because the muscles on the face are exercised.D. Because people who smile are really beautiful.34. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A. All people have colorful social lives.B. All people feel their smiles are valuable.C. Smiling can be very beneficial.D. Smiling too much isn’t healthy.35. What is the text mainly about?A. How to study smiles.B. The purpose of smiling.C. How to practice smiling on purpose.D. The advantages of smiling on purpose.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。

AUnusual Ways to Ring In the New YearDenmark: Smashing platesIf you came out of your front door to find a lot of smashed (破碎的）plates, you might be a bit confused. But that’s exactly what people in Denmark hope to find after midnight, as it means good luck. So, if you were Danish, you might go and smash a plate on a friend’s doors tep to bring good luck to him or her over the next 12 months. Finland: Fortune telling with metalIn countries, including Finland, there is a tradition of melting a special metal and then dropping it into cold water. The metal will form a shape when it cools. People then try to read the shape of the metal that tells them something about their future. For example, if it makes the shape of a flower, it could mean the person will have an unknown admirer in the next year.Spain: Eating grapesWhen the clocks hit midnight in Spain, you'11 find people reaching for grapes. This is because there is a tradition of eating one grape each time the clock strikes at midnight. The idea is that this will bring you twelve lucky months in the year ahead.South America：Walking with an empty suitcaseIn some South American countries, on New Year's Eve you might see some people walking around with an empty suitcase. Some believe that taking what is called a“suitcase walk” means they will have a year full of adventure s ahead.21. What will the Spanish do when the clock hits midnight in the New Year?A. To walk with an empty suitcase.B. To eat twelve grapes.C. To melt a special metalD. To smash a plate on the doorstep.22. Who will melt a special metal and drop it into cold water when the new year comes?A. DanishB. SpanishC. FinnishD. South Americans23. What can we learn from the text?A. In the world, ways are various to welcome the new year.B. New Year's Day is a festival which is worth celebrating.C. People hope for luck when the clock strikes at midnight.D. There are some unusual ways to ring in the new year.BBeing blind is tough in any case. But things were even harder for Srikanth Bolla who was born in a small village in India, where the common belief was that kids with disabilities were “of no use” and therefore, better off dead. Fortunately, Srikanth's parents loved their son and refused to give him up. Instead, they encouraged the blind boy to dream big and reach for the star.Srikanth did not disappoint his parents. The now twenty-four-year-old is the founder CEO of Bollant Industries.Of course, getting here was not easy. Being both blind and poor meant that Srikanth had to face hard challenges. As a young boy, Srikanth attended a regular school near his home. Unfortunately, the students and teachers didn't quite like him because of his disability. As a result, the young boy was largely ignored and often spent the entire day alone.Concerned this would hold back Srikanth' s development, his family decided to send him to a special needs school in Hyderabad. Sure enough, the young boy soon rose to the top of his class, earning awards in speech and debate competitions. But Srikanth was prevented from studying sciences when he reached l0th grade, because it wasthought too “dangerous” for a blind student. Not one to give up, Srikanth took legal action and became the first blind student in the country allowed to study sciences.Later, after graduating from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Srikanth set up Bollant Industries in 2012. For just four years, it has become a powerhouse with over 450 employees, 70% of whom are physically challenged.Being disabled doesn't mean being unable. “If the world looks at me and says, ‘Srikanth, you can do nothing,’ I will look back at the world and say I can do anyhing.” the young man says.24.

He could not u nderstand the teacher’s explanations. Even when the teacher explained something a second time, Donald stillcould not understand it. “Never mind,” Donald told himself, “I’m quite good at other subjects. I’ll cheat in the maths exam, and then I won’t be in trouble.’’“I will sit next to the boy who’s good at maths,’’ he thought, “and copy down his answers. ” The day of the exam came, and Donald sat next to Brian Smith, who was always at the top of the class in maths. Donald carefully copied Brian’s answers onto his own exam paper. At the end of the exam, the teacher collected the papers and graded them. Then she said, “Well, boys and girls. I’ve decided to give a prize to the student who got the highest grade. However, it’s difficult for me to decide who to give the prize to, because two students, Donald and Brian, got the same grade.”“Let them share it,’’ one of the other students said.“I have thought about that,’’ the teacher said, “but I have decided to give the prize to Brian.’’ Donald was angry when he heard this. He stood up and said, “That is not fair. I got the same grade as Brian.” “That is true,’’ the teacher said. “However, Brian’s answer to Question 18 was ‘I don’t know’, while yours was ‘Neither do I’.”28. Which of the following is TRUE?A.

It has been demonstrated (证实) that rats will, when given a choice over a period of time, prefer water with vitamins to water without vitamins, even though there is no difference in taste or smell between the two water bottles. When a fragrant flavor (香味) was added to the vitamin—enriched liquid, the rats did seem to develop a taste for it and kept drinking it, even after the vitamins were switched to the clear water. In time, however, they broke the habit and went back to where the necessary vitamins were.In an experiment, babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a cafeteria (自助食堂) with a wide selection of baby food before them. They were given whatever food they pointed to or appeared interested in. We are told that at first they showed some unusual eating patterns, but over a period of time they managed to select a well-balanced diet (饮食).So, in selecting food, rats and babies do seem to know and act on what's best for them. Clearly, there is a kind of "body wisdom" which humans soon lose. Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could. Many of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced (影响) by long-established habits. Some people eat fox, dog and blackbirds, while we eat cows and pigs. So what people eat and how much they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going on around them.32. In the experiment on rats, a fragrant flavor was added to the rat's drinking water to___.A. encourage rats to drink itB. find out what kind of flavor rats preferC. test whether rats know which drink is with fragrant flavorD. demonstrate that vitamins are tasteless33. The expression "the habit" in the first paragraph refers to drinking water which _____.A. has no smellB. is tastelessC. has vitaminsD. is flavored34. As far as their eating habits are concerned, babies and rats are similar because _____.A. both have the wisdom to choose a balanced dietB. both prefer flavored food and drinkC. both have the same eating patternsD. both develop a taste for the same kinds of flavors35. According to the passage, adults' (成年人) eating habits differ from those of babies because ____________.A. adults know better than babies what kinds of food are good for their healthB. adults usually cannot resist the temptation of various delicious foodsC. adults' eating habits are closely related to the social and cultural customsD. adults have more choices of food than babies in eating patterns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。
