2018-2019学年甘肃省平凉市静宁一中高三(上)期末英语试卷一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AI was waiting for my train and on the subway station's floor was a man just sitting there.I looked around and nobody stopped so I just went my way.After a few steps,I turned and asked him whether he needed help.He told me his house was one station further and he would only need to take the train there.So I reached for his hand to help him stand up.He wanted to take the stairs but I feared that he would hurt himself since he seemed too weak to walk,so I asked him to take the elevator.Even though my mind was trying to turn the danger lights on,I put the thought that I should not go alone with a drunken man out of my mind and accompanied him on the elevator.We arrived on the platform with no incidents.The man's knees seemed to soften,so I asked him to rest on a bench.While sitting there,he thanked me,telling me that I saved him.No,I said,I really did nothing;he saved himself as he walked on his own feet.At the next station,we said our goodbyes,Before I knew it,he left 100 dollars and dashed out of the train.There was no way to give him back his money.I wanted to leave it on the seat,but a young woman who thought it belonged to me ran after me and gave me the note.My initial reaction to getting that money was of shame and I even felt offended.Then I thought he just wanted to thank me,the best way he knew how.Now,my question is--what act of kindness shall I do with these 100 dollars?1.Why was the man sitting on the subway stations floor?______A.

Drexel University's youngest studentC. the world's youngest college professorD. American's youngest bachelor of science5.What does the author mean by saying "she might have more luck" in Paragraph 3?______A. Sabur is lucky to be hired by Konkuk University.B. Sabur will be permitted to drink in Korean bars.C. Sabur would be allowed to attend parties in South Korea.D. Sabur is old enough to teach at Konkuk University.6.What does the author mainly want to show in the last paragraph?______A. Sabur has her own way of relaxing.B. Sabur spends little time on her studies.C. Sabur is talented in a lot of ways.D. Sabur likes music more than sports.7.It can be inferred from the passage that ______ .A. Sabur went to college when she was ten years oldB. by aged 14,Sabur got a bachelor of science degreeC. the drinking age in South Korea is twenty years oldD. Alia Sabur was born in February 1989 in the United States【答案】【小题1】C 【小题2】B 【小题3】C 【小题4】D【解析】1.C 细节理解题.根据文章第二段This distinction(差异)made her the youngest college professor in history,according to the Guinness Book of World Records,beating the previous record held by Colin Maclaurin,a student of physicist Isaac Newton,in 1717.可知根据《吉尼斯世界纪录大全》,这种区别使她成为历史上最年轻的大学教授,超过了物理学家伊萨克牛顿的学生Colin Maclaurin1717年所保持的纪录.由此可见,Sabur是世界上最年轻的大学教授.故选C.2.B 根据第三段内容可知,尽管Sabur要到下个月才开始工作,但她已经在新奥尔良的南方大学教授数学和物理课程了.萨布尔已经长大了,可以教书了,但下班后不能和她的其他教授一起去酒吧.在传统的韩国文化中,孩子出生时被认为是1岁,并且在每个新年增加一岁,而不是他们的实际生日,所以在韩国是这样的被认为是20.由此可见,他就到了可喝酒的年龄,所以说是幸运的,故选B.3.C 细节理解题.根据最后一段内容可知,在她空前的学术成就之外,Sabur在跆拳道有一条黑带,她也是一个有才华的单簧管演奏家,曾与郎朗和粉碎的嘴等音乐家一起演奏,那么Sabur有什么不能做的吗?由此可见,Sabur有很多才能.故选C.4.D 推理判断题.根据第一段Alia Sabur,from North,NY,US,went to college at the age of 10.和第二段She was three days short of her 19th birthday in February,2008,when she was hired to become a professor at Konkuk University in Seoul,South Korea.可知,Alia Sabur于1989年2月出生在美国.故选D.本文主要介绍了一个世界上最年轻的大学教授Sabur的生平及他的天才传奇故事.此题主要考查学生的细节理解和推理判断能力.做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确选择.在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.CJuana,who came to America from Guatemala used to take the bus to and from cleaning jobs.Walking to the bus stop after a long day at work was exhausting,especially when it rained,as it occasionally does in Los Angeles.Now Juana drives everywhere.She had two aspirations,to learn English and to get a car.She has accomplished both.Although Los Angeles has organized itself around the car since the Second World War,it has tried harder than many other American cities to change this.However,public transport users are dwindling(逐新减少).In the past five years the number of trips taken in metropolitan Los Angeles has dropped by 19%.The American Public Transportation Association's figures show that the number of journeys in the country as a whole has fallen in each of the past three years.In 2016-2017 every kind of mass public transport became less busy.New Yorkers took 2.8% fewer weekday trips on public transport.In 2018the number of Tube Journeys fell by 1.4%.That was despite annual population growth in Landon of about I% and a 3.3% rise in employment in the past year,The Paris Metro carried only as many passengers in 2017as it did in 2012.In Berlin,public transport journeys are growing about half as quickly as employment.Exceptions are that more and more people are taking public transport in Sydney and Tokyo.Demand for mass public transport has weakened in so many rich-world cities at the sametime.Something seems to be driving people off the public transport.But what is it?One explanation,which is convincing in some cities,is that public transport has become worse.London and Paris have suffered terrorist attacks.New York's subway is creaking (嘎吱作响的)---a consequence of prolonged underinvestment in repairs.Elsewhere,bad weather or road works are said to prevent people from taking buses.8.Los Angeles is a city ______ .A. whose government would like citizens to take public transportB. where many immigrants like Juana have achieved their dreamsC. where everyone like Juana prefers to drive private carsD. where more and more people turn to public transport9.In Paragraph 3 the data show us public transport ______ .A. has declined in all the mentioned citiesB. has declined in most cities in America from 2016to2018C. became busier in each cityD. has attracted more and more users10.What is the main reason for people not taking public transport?______A. Public transport is unsafe.B. Taking public transport is a waste of timeC. Public transport disappoints people in many ways.D. Public transport is noisy,making people uncomfortable.11.Why does the author mention Juana in Paragraph 1?______A. To tell us she has achieved her dreams.B. To show us she's a hard working woman.C. To introduce the topic of the passage.D. To tell us what she does in America.【答案】【小题1】A 【小题2】B 【小题3】C 【小题4】C【解析】1.A.细节理解题.根据第二段Although Los Angeles has organized itself around the car since the Second World War, it h as tried harder than many other American cities to change this.可知,洛杉矶政府一直在鼓励人们乘坐交通工具,但是效果一直不理想;故选A.2.B.根据第三段In 2016-2017 every kind of mass public transport became less busy.以及 In 2018the number of Tube Journeys fell by 1.4%.可知,在美国的大多数城市里,公共交通的利用率一直在下降;故选B.3.C.推理判断题.根据最后一段London and Paris have suffered terrorist attacks. New York's subway is creaking以及bad weather or road works are said to prevent people from taking buses(嘎吱作响的)---a consequence of prolonged underinvestment in repairs可知,公共交通在很多方面是令人失望的;故选C.4.C.写作意图题.分析句子的内容可知,作者开头提到Juana的生活状况是为了引出话题;故选C.大型公共交通需求同时在如此多的发达国家的城市里减少,公共交通出行方式的衰退甚至更加剧烈.阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力,要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系,对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断;或根据作者所阐述的观点理论,对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释.考生首先要仔细阅读短文,完整了解信息,准确把握作者观点.DFor its outsize reputation,Silicon Valley is a narrow thing.America's innovation capital mainly consists of many small towns and cities on the San Francisco Peninsula(半岛)squeezed between the coastal mountain range to the west and the bay to the east.It is traditionally made up of the top of Santa Clara County as well as the very bottom of San Mateo County.Not long ago,this place was known as the Valley of Heart's Delight,famous for its plentiful fruit yards.The circumstances that turned the countryside into a technological center have been studied carefully,and many have attempted to replicate the magic in Silicon Valley.But for the past two decades,photographer Beth Yarnelle Edwards has been documenting the one aspect often unnoticed by these observers:Silicon Valley's fundamentally suburban(郊区的)character.Edwards' Suburban Dreams project was born in 1997."I felt lonely and trapped,but I realized that the people around me really loved being there,"she recalled.She began by photographing friends and acquaintances near her home in San Carlos.The project grew as she interviewed her subjects to understand how their environment shaped their hopes and dreams."It is really important to me that the pictures are true to what is happening in the home," she says.In 2016,Edwards began revisiting her subjects to see the effects of the growth and the wealth.But she was surprised by how little had changed in the lives of those still there.Many Silicon Valley natives do not recognize much of what they see there nowadays.It is true that modest bungalows(平房)have been replaced by very large houses.Almost everything is more crowded and more expensive.But a lot will never change.The main roads-Highway 101,El Camino Real-are the same.So are the freestanding oak trees and gentle hill surrounded by golden grass.And at the heart of them all,as Edwards photos illustrate,the suburban dream is still alive.12.Where is Silicon Valley?______A. In the center of San FranciscoB. On the San Francisco PeninsulaC. On top of Santa Clara County.D. At the bottom of San Mateo County13.Which of the following best explains the underlined word"replicate" in Paragraph 2?______A. Copy.B. Replace.C. Study.D. Report14.What did the project focus on later?______A. People's hopes and dreamsB. The wish of the acquaintances.C. The true life of the local people.D. Silicon Valley's influences on the local.15.What can be a suitable title for the text?______A. Crazy Changes,Crazy FollowersB. Wild Dream,Successful ProjectC. Lively City,Major InnovationD. Unchanging Life,Unchanging Dream【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】A 【小题3】D 【小题4】D【解析】1.B.细节理解题.根据文章第一段America's innovation (创新)capital mainly consists of many small towns and cities on the San Francisco peninsula (半岛)squeezed between the coastal mountain range to the west and the bay to the east.可知,硅谷位于旧金山半岛上.故选B.2.A.词义猜测题.根据文章第二段The circumstances that turned the countryside into a technological center have been studied carefully,and many have attempted to replicate the magic in Silicon Valley.把农村变成技术中心的情况已经仔细研究过了,许多人试图在硅谷复制魔法.根据句意可以猜测出replicate为"复制"之意.故选A.3.D.细节理解题.根据文章倒数第二段可知,Edwards所做的"郊区的梦想"这个项目是为了关注硅谷对当地人的影响.故选D.4.D.主旨大意题.根据文章大意:文章讲述摄影师Beth Yarnelle Edwards通过记录硅谷郊区近20年发现,郊区的生活几乎没有任何变化,郊区的梦想依然存在着.故选D.本文是一篇社会类短文阅读.文章讲述摄影师Beth Yarnelle Edwards通过记录硅谷郊区近20年发现,郊区的生活几乎没有任何变化,郊区的梦想依然存在着.阅读理解考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)College is the time when you're expected to focus on your path in life.But it's also the time you're the least equipped to have any long-term plan.(1) .The whole process can be divided into three stages.The first is "gathering fuel".This means building up your skills,learning from different experiences and developing a network of people who you trust and who trust you.And this is a stage that requires patience and willingness to identify your own weaknesses and work on them.If you complete this stage with a growing sense of what you love to do and what you are good at,(2) .The second stage is " burning fuel".This is the time to improve the skills you've obtained through experiences,the relationship with the people you've met along the way and the recognition of what you should do.(3) .We want to get there in a hurry,but that hardly works.(4) .Simply speaking,it's about staying strong,while turning an eye towards what lies ahead.It's a surprisingly long journey and most people underestimate it.You can't expect an ideal life to happen by itself.You must recognize that no matter where you are on the path,each step is there to teach you something,feeding you that fuel.If you're not doing what you want,you need more fuel - so go out and get it.(5) .A.you are winningB.that will come trueC.The last part is "saving fuel"D.The final part is "filling fuel"E.Here are some tips on how to aim your sight into the futureF.It seems that most of us try to jump straight to the next stageG.And if you're doing what you want,keep moving and don't settle16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G18. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G19. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G20. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G【答案】【小题1】E 【小题2】A 【小题3】F 【小题4】D 【小题5】G【解析】1.E.考查上下文推理能力.根据上文 College is the time when you're expected to focus on your path in life. But it's also the ti me you're the least equipped to have any long-term plan.以及文章第三、四段段首部分 The first is "gathering fuel".和 The second stage is "burning fuel".可知,文章就针对大学生活制定长期计划提出建议.E项意为"这里有一些关于如何瞄准未来的建议",承上启下,符合语境.故正确答案为E.2.A.考查上下文推理能力.根据上文中 This means building up your skills, learning from different experiences and developing a network of people who you trust and who trust you. And this is a stage that requires patienc e and a willingness to identify your own weaknesses and work on them. If you complete thi s stage with a growing sense of what you love to do and what you are good at 可知,这一阶段的主要目标是提高自身的技能、从不同的经历中学习,发现自己的弱点,如果你在这一阶段对自己喜欢做什么、擅长什么有了越来越多的认识,就意味着你成功地达成了这一阶段的目标.即通过这一过程学会了很多东西.A项意为"你赢了",承接上文,符合语境.故正确答案为A.3.F.考查上下文推理能力.根据下文 We want to get where we're going in a hurry,but that hardly works.可知,人人都希望早点到达目的地,但这很难奏效.F项意为"似乎我们大多数人都想直接跳到下一个阶段",引出下文,符合语境.故正确答案为F.4.D.考查上下文推理能力.根据该段最后一句 You must recognize that no matter where you are on the path, each step is there to teach you something, feeding you that fuel.可知,你必须认识到,无论你在这条道路上的什么地方,每一步都是为了教会你一些东西,为你提供燃料.若将这一过程与 fuel 联系起来,应为 fill fuel,意为"填充燃料",即你走的每一步都是"燃料"的来源,而非 save fuel.D 项意为"最后一部分是‘加油'",引出下文,符合语境.故正确答案为D.5.G.考查上下文推理能力.根据上文 If you're not doing what you want, you need more fuel - so go out and get it.可知,如果你没有做着你想做的事,你需要更多的燃料--所以出去寻找吧.G项意为"如果你正在做着你想做的事,那就继续前进,不要停下来",承接上文,符合语境.故正确答案为G.本文是一篇说明文,文章讲述的是就针对大学生活制定长期计划提出建议.七选五阅读是完成性阅读,和完形填空很类似,不同的是一个选词,一个选句子.解题时,要注意上下文语境,充分考虑信息词(选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词),选出最符合语境的句子.三、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共30.0分)Body language is the quiet,secret and most powerful language of all!It speaks (21) than words.According to specialists,our bodies send out more (22) than we realize.In fact,non-verbal communication(非言语交际)takes up about 50% of what we really (23).And body language is particularly (24) when we attempt to communicate across cultures(文化).Indeed,what is called body language is so (25) a part of us that it's actually often unnoticed.And misunderstandings occur as a result of it.(26),different societies treat the (27) between people differently.Northern Europeans usually do not like having (28) contact(接触)even with friends,and certainly not with (29).People from Latin American countries,(30),touch each other quite a lot.Therefore,it's possible that in (31),it may look like a Latino is (32) a Norwegian all over the room.The Latino,trying to express friendship,will keep moving (33).The Norwegian,very probably seeing this as pushiness,will keep (34)-which the Latino will in return regard as (35).Clearly,a great deal is going on when people (36).And only a part of it is in the words themselves.And when parties are from (37) cultures,there's a strong possibility of(38).But whatever the situation,the best (39) is to obey the Golden Rule:treat others as you would like to be (40).21.

A★Money and Happiness★A Guide to Living the Good LifeAuthor: Laura RowleyPublisher: Wiley (March 1, 2016)Laura Rowley helps us all understand the money-happiness connection in our own lives so that we spend our time and efforts wisely. She offers insights that every reader can use to make smarter decisions that will lead to living a rich life in every possible definition of the term.★Happiness★The Science Behind Your SmileAuthor: Daniel NettlePublisher: Oxford University Press (July 1, 2016)This is the first book to look thoroughly at what happiness is and how it works.

J. RyanPublisher: Broadway (May 10, 2016)Ryan’s own desire to be happier first led her to study what is known about happiness from brainscience, psychology, and the wisdom traditions of the world.The Happiness Makeover draws onthis wide-ranging knowledge and presents a plan that will help you:Clear away happiness problems like worry, fear, envy, and dislikes.Learn to think confidently.Find daily ways to truly enjoy, even relish, the moments of your life.★Health and Happiness★Hormones and Qualities LlivesAuthor: Steven F.

Unlikethe popular medical way of treating individual symptoms(症状) with the familiar “anti” drugs, Dr Hotze deals with the basic causes of poor health.In Hormones, Health, and Happiness you are shown how to reach and keep the best body functioning.Based on a process of biologically the same hormones(荷尔蒙) and other natural treatments, it canhelp you enjoy a better quality of life.1.According to the passage, which of the following books was the first to come out?A.A Guide to Living the Good LifeB.Hormones and Qualities LlivesC.How to Teach Yourself to Be Happy and Enjoy Every DayD.The Science Behind Your Smile2.If you want to know more about whether happiness has something to do with success, you should turn to _______.A.Money and Happiness B.Health and HappinessC.The Happiness Makeover D.Happiness3.Whose model will possibly help readers obtain health and wellness naturally?A.Laura Rowley’s. B.Steven F. Hotze’s.C.Daniel Nettle’s. D.M. J. Ryan’s.BAs soon as you meet, or even see, a person, you form an impression of him based on hisposture, gestures and facial expressions. This is why it is important to make a good firstimpression on the person who will be interviewing you. Within the first 60 seconds of meetingyou, the interviewer will have formed an impression about what type of person you are and whatkind of employee you would become, and 55% of this will be based only on your body language.Here are some tips to make that impression a good one.First of all, relax. Think positive thoughts and you are more likely to come across as apositive, confident person during the interview. Dress smartly, as your appearance is one of thefirst things an interviewer will notice you. Stand up straight, and walk in with your shoulders backand your head up. Try to avoid slowing down as you walk into the room because this suggests fearand uncertainty. Shake hands with the interviewer firmly. You should have a positive handshakeand a warm smile. Opening your coat or jacket as you sit down shows that you, too, are open.Posture is important. You should be sitting well back in your seat. Sit up straight and leanforward slightly, but not too much. Sitting at too much of an angle (角度) expresses discomfortand distrust. Two of the most common defensive (防卫的) signals are crossing your arms and legs,so try to avoid them.Another important issue is eye contact. Looking someone in the eye shows confidence inyourself and trust in the other person. However, don’t overdo it, as too much eye contact or staring will make the other person uncomfortable. Use more eye contact when listening than when talking,and when you look away, look down. Looking up at the ceiling will make you seem bored or rude.4.The purpose of the first paragraph is to tell readers __________.A.what a good first impression isB.the importance of making a good first impressionC.how long it takes to make a first impressionD.how to make a good first impression5.Which of the following does the author advise you to do when you are being interviewed?A.Cross your arms or legs.B.Go into the room more slowly than usual.C.Open your coat or jacket when sitting down.D.Avoid looking at the eyes of the interviewer directly.6.If you lean forward too much, it means _____.A.you are very bored B.you are too nervousC.you don’t have confidence D.you don’t trust others7.What is the best title for the text?A.How to use body language to win an interviewB.How to answer questions in an interviewC.How to understand body languageD.How to deal with an interviewerCWe do not know when man first began to use salt, but we do know that it has been used inmany different ways throughout history. Historical evidence shows, for example, that people wholived over 3,000 years ago ate salted fish. Thousands of years ago in Egypt, salt was used topreserve (保存) the dead.Stealing salt was considered a major crime (罪行) during some periods of history. In theeighteenth century, for example, if a person was caught stealing salt, he could be put in prison andhis ears could be cut off.In the Roman Empire, one of the most important roads was the one that carried salt from thesalt mines to Rome. Guards were stationed along the route to protect against salt thieves, and theyreceived their pay in salt, thus bringing the English word, salary. Any guard who fell asleep whileon duty was thought to be “not worth his salt”, and as a result he would get a little less salt on histill used today in English.next payday. The expression, “not worth his salt”, is sIn the modern world salt has many uses beyond the dining table. It is used in making glassand airplane parts, in the growing of crops, and in the killing of weeds (杂草). It is also used tomake water soft, to melt (融化) ice on roads and highways, to make soap, and to fix colors incloth.Salt can be got in various ways besides being taken from mines underground. Salt water fromthe ocean, salt water lakes or small seas can be used to make salt. Yet, no matter where it comesfrom, salt will continue to play an important role in the lives of people everywhere.8.According to the text, salt can be used in the following EXCEPT _____.A.keeping dead bodies B.protecting cropsC.punishing thieves D.making industrial products9.In the Roman Empire many people were employed as guards to _____.A.prevent thieves from stealing salt B.watch people carrying saltC.protect the city of Rome D.carry salt from the mines to Rome10.The expression “not worth his salt” used today refers to the one who _____.A.doesn’t want to work at all B.should not be paid in saltC.fails to do his work well D.should use less salt11.The main purpose of the text is to tell readers ________.A.how salt was found and got B.salt is important in people’s lifeC.salt was difficult to get in the past D.what salt brings to the EnglishlanguageDOnce when I was facing a decision that involved high risk, I went to a friend. He looked atme for a moment, and then wrote a sentence containing the best advice I’ve ever had: Be bold a brave — and mighty (强大的) forces will come to your aid.Those words made me see clearly that when I had fallen short in the past, it was seldombecause I had tried and failed. It was usually because I had let fear of failure stop me from tryingat all. On the other hand, whenever I had plunged into deep water, forced by courage orcircumstance, I had always been able to swim until I got my feet on the ground again.Boldness means a decision to bite off more than you can eat. And there is nothing mysteriousabout the mighty forces. They are potential powers we possess: energy, skill, sound judgment,creative ideas — even physical strength greater than most of us realize.Admittedly, those mighty forces are spiritual ones. But they are more important than physicalones. A college classmate of mine, Tim, was an excellent football player, even though he weighedmuch less than the average player. “In one game I suddenly found myself confronting a hugeplayer, who had nothing but me between him and our goal line,”said Tim. “I was so frightenedthat I closed my eyes and desperately threw myself at that guy like a bullet — and stopped himcold.”Boldness — a willingness to extend yourself to the extreme—is not one that can be acquiredovernight. But it can be taught to children and developed in adults. Confidence builds up. Surely,there will be setbacks (挫折) and disappointments in life; boldness in itself is no guarantee ofsuccess. But the person who tries to do something and fails is a lot better off than the person who tries to do nothing and succeeds.So, always try to live a little bit beyond your abilities—and you’ll find your abilities are greater than you ever dreamed.12.Why was the author sometimes unable to reach his goal in the past?A.He faced huge risks. B.Fear prevented him from trying.C.He lacked mighty forces. D.Failure blocked his way to success.13.What is the implied meaning of the underlined part?A.Swallow more than you can digest. B.Learn to make creative decisions.C.Develop more mysterious powers. D.Act slightly above your abilities.14.What was especially important for Ti m’s successful defense in the football game?A.His spiritual force. B.His basic skill.C.His real fear. D.His physical strength.ge?15.What is the author’s purpose in writing this passaA.To tell people the ways to guarantee success.B.To advise people to build up physical power.C.To encourage people to be courageous.D.To recommend people to develop more abilities.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。

2018-2019甘肃省宁县高二上学期期末联考英语试题

2018—2019 学年度第一学期全县期末联考试题高二级英语一、阅读理解(每道题2分,共40分)第一节(每小题2分共30分)AAre there any foreigners in your city? How do you address(称呼) them in English when you want to talk to these foreigners? The following may be some simple rules the beginners should follow.1. When talking to strangers there is often no special form of address in English. In most cases, if you want to catch the attention of a stranger it is necessary to use such phrases as “Excuse me”.2. In Briti sh English “Sir” and “Madam” are considered to be too formal for most situations. They are used mostly to customers in shops or restaurants .While in American English “Sir” and “Madam” are not so formal and are commonly used between strangers, especially w ith older people whose names you don’t know.3. When you talk to some people you know, you can use their names directly. If you are friends, use their first names; if your relationship is more formal, use “Mr.”, “Mrs.”, “Ms.”, etc, before their family names.4. There are many other forms of address which can be used between friends and strangers. However, many of these are limited in use. For example, “pal” and “mate” can be used between strangers, but are usually only used by men talking to other men.If you meet foreigners, do remember not to address them in wrong ways.1.According to the passage, “Excuse me” is mainly used to _______.A. address a person you don’t knowB. apologize to othersC. catch the attention of a strangerD. suggest good manners2.If John Smith is your best friend, according to the passage you should often call him______.A. JohnB. SmithC. Mr. JohnD. Mr. Smith3.What is the title of this passage?A. Foreigners in Your CityB. How to Introduce OthersC. Politeness EducationD. How to Address ForeignersBThe United States is full of cars. There are still many families without cars, but some families have two or more. However, cars are used for more than pleasure. They are a necessary part of life.Cars are used for business. They are driven to offices and factories by workers who have no other way to get to their jobs. When salesmen are sent to different parts of the city, they have to drive in order to carry their products. Farmers have to drive into the city in order to get supplies.Sometimes small children must be driven to school. In some cities school buses are used only when children live more than a mile away from the school. When the children are too young to walk too far, their mothers take turns driving them to school. One mother drives on Mondays taking her own children and the neighbors' as well. Another mother drives on Tuesdays, another on Wednesday, and so on. This is called forming a car pool. Men also form car pools, with three or four men taking turns driving to the place where they all work.More car pools should be formed in order to put fewer cars on the road and use less gas. Too many cars are being driven. Something will have to be done about the use of cars.4.The United States is filled with cars, but .A. not every family has a carB. few families have two cars or even moreC. every American has a carD. every family has a car5.Which statement is true according to the third paragraph?A. Small children are driven to school.B. All children go to school by bus in some cities.C. Mothers drive their children who can't walk to school.D. School buses pick up all children.6.Mothers form car pools in order that .A. they can drive to schoolB. they can take turns driving their children to schoolC. they reach school quicklyD. they can drive their children to school in time7.The traffic in and around cities is a great problem because .A. too many cars are being drivenB. there are too many car poolsC. people put fewer cars on the roadsD. there is less gasCNearly everyone is bullied (欺负) at some time in their lives. If you are being bullied, you may feel scared, but you owe it to yourself to try and sort out the situation so that the bullying stops.It is surprising that all sorts of people who are now very successful adults were bullied when they were young. It is encouraging to know that it is possible to succeed, in spite of being bullied at school. All of these well–known people were bullied at school: Phil Collins, Harrison Ford, Tom Cruise and many others.WHAT CAN I DO IF I AM BEING BULLIED?If your school has an anti–bullying system, use it to get help. If you’re not sure how it works, then talk to a teacher. Some schools ignore bul lying, but don’t become resigned (听天由命) to being a victim. You can still help yourself and ask others to help you.Tell a friend what is happening. Ask him or her to help you. It will be harder for the bully to pick on you if you have a friend with you for support.Don’t fight back if you can avoid it. Most bullies are bigger or stronger than you. If you fight back you could make the situation worse, get hurt or be blamed for starting the trouble.Try to avoid being alone in the places where you know the bully is likely to pick on you. This might mean changing your route to school, avoiding parts of playground, or only using common rooms when other people are there.Keep a diary of what is happening. Write down the details of the incidents and your feelings. When you do decide to tell someone, a written record of the bullying makes it easier to prove what has been going on.8.What could be the best title of the passage?A.What to do if bulliedB.How bullying occursC.Fight back when bulliedD.Bullying—whose fault?9.From the first two paragraphs we can infer that_____ .A.bullying seldom happens among peopleB.bullying is very common among peopleC.well–known people used to be bullied when youngD.ordinary people are not likely to be bullied10. When would a person be likely to be bullied?A.When he is with a friend.B.When he is going home by himself.C.When in a room full of people.D.When he is playing on the playground.11. By writing down the details of the incidents, you can______A.change the bad situationB.avoid being bulliedC.easily prove what is happeningD.make the bully scaredDYou may be familiar with the following famous people, but have you heard of their graduation speeches, in which they either share their unforgotten experiences or give you some great inspiration(启迪).●Michael Dell, University of Texas at AustinAnd now you've accomplished something great and important here, and it's time for you to move on to what's next. And you must not let anything prevent you from taking those first steps ... You must also commit to the adventure. Just have faith in the skills and the knowledge you've been blessed (赐予)with and go.●J.K. Rowling, Harvard UniversityHalf my lifetime ago ,I was striking an uneasy balance between my ambition and the expectation from my parents who were not rich...But what I feared most for myself at your age wasnot poverty(贫穷), but failure. The fact that you are graduating from Harvard suggests that you know little about failure, you might be driven by a fear of failure quite as much as a desire for success.●Steve Jobs, Stanford UniversitySometimes life's going to hit you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith...Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work, and the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking, and don't settle.●Bill Gates, Harvard UniversityWe need as many people as possible to have access to the advanced technology to lead to a revolution in what human beings can do for one another.

It is run by a comedy club.BFive years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said: “Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 min utes today - and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.”A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, “ But I’m just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would t ell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you? ”“Nobody. I do it.”“Really-at night, when you’re asleep? ”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay? ”4. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________?A. raise the students’ interest in artB. make the lessons more excitingC. know more about the studentsD. teach the students about toydesign5. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. He liked to help his teacher.B. He preferred to study alone.C. He was imaginative.D. He was active in class.6. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mea n?A. Drawback.B. Mistake.C. Difficulty.D. Burden.7. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?A. To find out about their ways of thinking.B. To find out about their sleeping habits.C. To help them to improve their memory.D. To help them to see their creativity.CI am peter Hodes, a volunteer stem courier. Since March 2012, I've done 89 trips of those , 51 have been abroad, I have 42 hours to carry stem cells(干细胞)in my little box because I've got two ice packs and that's how long they last. In all, from the time the stem cells are harvested from a donor(捐献者) to the time they can be implanted in the patient, we’ve got 72 hours at most. So I am always conscious of time.I had one trip last year where I was caught by a hurricane in America. I picked up the stem cells in Providence, Rhode Island, and was meant to fly to Washington then back to London. But when I arrived at the check-in desk at Providence, the lady on the desk said: “Well, I’m really sorry, I’ve got some bad news for you-there are no fights from Washington.” So I took my box and put it on the desk and I said: “In this box are some stem cells that are urgently needed for a patient-please, please, you’ve got to get me back to the United Kingdom.”Sh e just dropped everything. She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for me, re-routed(改道)me through Newark and got me back to the UK even earlier than originally scheduled.For this courier job, you’re consciously aware that in that box you’ve got something that is potentially going to save somebody’s life.8.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “courier” in Paragraph1?A. providerB. medical doctorC. collectorD. delivery man9.Why does Peter have to complete his trip within 42 hours?A. The ice won't last any longer.B. The donor can only wait for that long.C. The operation needs that very much.D. He cannot stay away from his job too long.10.Which flight did the woman put Peter on first?A. To LondonB. To WashingtonC. To ProvidenceD. To NewarkDIn its early history, Chicago had floods frequently, especially in the spring, making the streets so muddy that people, horses, and carts got stuck. An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this: A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street. Asked if he needs help, he replies, “No, thanks. I've got a good horse under me.”The city planner decided to build an underground drainage (排水) system, but there simply wasn't enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level. The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city.An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced me the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt. This raised the level of the city's streets by as much as 12 feet.This of course created a new problem: dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago. Building owners were faced with a choice: either change the first floors of their buildings into basements, and the second stories into main floors, or hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level. Small wood-frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily. But what about large, heavy structures like Tremont Hotel, which was a six-story brick building That's where George Pullman came in. He had developed some house-moving skills successfully. To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel, Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews (螺旋千斤顶) beneath the building's foundation. One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews. At Pullman's signal each man turned his jackscrew the same amount at the same time, thereby raising the building slowly and evenly. Astonishingly, the Tremont Hotel stay open during the entire operation, and many of its guests didn't even notice anything was happening.Some people like to say that every problem has a solution. But in Chicago's early history, every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem. Now that Chicago's waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River, the city's next step was to clean the polluted river.11. The author mentions the joke to show ______.A. Chicago's streets were extremely muddyB. horses were fairly useful in ChicagoC. Chicago was very dangerous in the springD. the Chicago people were particularly humorous12.The city planners were convinced by Ellis Chesbrough to_______.A. get rid of the street dirtB. lower the Chicago RiverC. build the pipes above groundD. fight against heavy floods13.The underlined word “hoist” in Paragraph 4 means “_______”.A. changeB. decorateC. repairD. lift14.What can we conclude about the moving operation of the Tremont Hotel?A. It interrupted the business of the hotel.B. It went on smoothly as intended.C. It involved Pullman turning ten jackscrews.D. It separated the building from its foundation.15.The passage is mainly about the early Chicago's ______.A. engineering problems and their solutionsB. environmental disasters and their causesC. popular life styles and their influencesD. successful businessmen and their achievements第二部分完形填空(每小题1.5分,满分30分)The journey my daughter Cathy has had with her swimming is as long as it is beautiful.Cathy suffered some terrible 16 in her early childhood.

Last summer, she wanted to 18 our local swim team. She practiced hard and finally 19 it. The team practice, 20 was a rough start. She coughed and choked and could hardly 21 her first few weeks. Hearing her coughing bitterly one night, I decided to 22 her from it all. But Cathy woke me up early next morning, wearing her swimsuit 23 to go! I told her she shouldn’t swim after a whole night’s coughing, but she refused to 24 and insisted she go .From that day on, Cathy kept swimming and didn’t25 a single practice. She had a 26 intention within herself to be the best she could be. My ten—year—old was growing and changing right before my eyes, into this 27 human being with a passion and a mission. There were moments of 28 of course: often she would be the last swimmer in the race. It was difficult for Cathy to accept that she wasn’t a29 ---ever. But that didn’t stop her from trying.Then came the fi nal awards ceremony at the end of the year. Cathy didn’t expect any award but was still there to 30 her friends and praise their accomplishments. As the ceremony was nearing the end, I suddenly heard the head coach 31 , “The highest honor goes to Cathy!” Looking around, he continued, “Cathy has inspired us with her32 and enthusiasm. 33 skills and talents bring great success, the most valuable asset (财富) one can hold is the heart.”It was the greatest 34 of my daughter’s life.

"Do you dream at night when you're asleep?""Oh,sure.""So tell me one of your most interesting dreams."The student would tell something wildly imaginative.Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads."That's pretty creative.Who does that for you?""Nobody.I do it.""Really-at night,when you're asleep?""Sure.""Try doing it in the daytime,in class,okay?"4.The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ______ .A. know more about the studentsB. make the lessons more excitingC. raise the students'interest in artD. teach the students about toy design5.What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?______A.

He cannot stay away from his job too long.B. The donor can only wait for that long.C. The operation needs that much time.D. The ice won't last any longer.10.Which flight did the woman put Peter on first?______A. To LondonB. To NewarkC. To ProvidenceD. To Washington 【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】D 【小题3】B【解析】答案:29.B 词义猜测题由于"a volunteer stem cell courier"在句中作peter Hodes的同位语,所以courier应该是表示一种职业;根据第一段"I've done 89 trips我已经运送了89次造血干细胞";"I have 42 hours to carry stem cells干细胞在我的小箱子里只能存放42小时"以及第二段作者讲述了他在运送干细胞时被困的经历;可知作者是运送干细胞的人,即B.delivery man 送货员.A.供应商;C.收藏家;D.医学博士;故选B.30.D 细节理解题.根据第一段"I have 42 hours to carry stem cells in my little box because I've got two ice packs and that's how long they last.干细胞在我的小箱子里只能存放42小时,因为箱子里面的两个冰包只能维持这么长时间."可知冰包将不能存放更长的时间.故选D.31.B 细节理解题.根据第二段"She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for me,re-routed me through Newark and got me back to the UK…她安排了一架小型飞机为我组织了一次飞行,并为我更改了航线,经由Newark,使我先于预定的时间到达了英国."由此出可知那位女士先将Peter安排在了飞往Newark的航班上;故选B.我是peter Hodes,是一名志愿运送造血干细胞的送货员.自2012三月以来,我已经输送了89次造血干细胞,有51次是送往国外的.干细胞在我的小箱子里只能存放42小时,因为箱子里面的两个冰包只能维持这么长时间.总之,从干细胞由捐献者体内取出到它们被植入到病人体内,我们最多有72小时的时间,所以我总是有很强的时间观念.去年在美国,有一次在运送干细胞的路上,我被的一场飓风困住了.在罗得岛州的首府,Providence,我带着干细胞,打算飞往华盛顿然后再回到伦敦机场,但是当我到达Providence机场的登机手续办理台时,在柜台里的一位女士说:"好吧,我真的很抱歉,我得告诉你一些坏消息,没有飞往华盛顿的航班了."于是我拿出箱子,并把它放在桌子上,说:"这个箱子里是病人迫切需要的干细胞,请你必须得让我回到英国."于是,她放下手头上所有的工作,安排了一架小型飞机为我组织了一次飞行,并为我更改了航线,经由Newark,使我先于预定的时间到达了英国.对于这份送货员的工作,你会清醒地意识到你手里的不只是一个装东西的箱子,而是可能会挽救某人生命的东西.做本题时,首先需要快速通读全文,把握文章的主旨(即本文主要讲述了送货员peterHodes在运送造血干细胞时的经历),并完成第29题.然后针对第30.31题进行细节阅读,从文中找出答案.DIn its early history,Chicago had floods frequently,especially in the spring,making the streets so muddy that people,horses,and carts got stuck.An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this:A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street.Asked if he needs help,he replies,"No,thanks.I've got a good horse under me." The city planner decided to build an underground drainage (排水)system,but there simply wasn't enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level.The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city.An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced me the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt.This raised the level of the city's streets by as much as 12 feet.This of course created a new problem:dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago.Building owners were faced with a choice:either change the first floors of their buildings into basements,and the second stories into main floors,or hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level.Small wood-frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily.But what about large,heavy structures like Tremont Hotel,which was a six-story brick building That's where George Pullman came in.He had developed some house-moving skills successfully.To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel,Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews (螺旋千斤顶)beneath the building's foundation.One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews.At Pullman's signal each man turned his jackscrew the same amount at the same time,thereby raising the building slowly and evenly.Astonishingly,the Tremont Hotel stay open during the entire operation,and many of its guests didn't even notice anything was happening.Some people like to say that every problem has a solution.But in Chicago's early history,every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem.Now that Chicago's waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River,the city's next step was to clean the polluted river.11.The author mentions the joke to show ______ .A. Chicago's streets were extremely muddyB. horses were fairly useful in ChicagoC. Chicago was very dangerous in the springD. the Chicago people were particularly humorous12.The city planners were convinced by Ellis Chesbrough to ______ .A. get rid of the street dirtB. lower the Chicago RiverC. build the pipes above groundD. fight against heavy floods13.The underlined word "hoist" in Paragraph 4 means " ______ ".A. changeB. decorateC. repairD. lift14.What can we conclude about the moving operation of the Tremont Hotel?______A. It interrupted the business of the hotel.B. It went on smoothly as intended.C. It involved Pullman turning ten jackscrews.D. It separated the building from its foundation.15.The passage is mainly about the early Chicago's ______ .A. engineering problems and their solutionsB. environmental disasters and their causesC. popular life styles and their influencesD. successful businessmen and their achievements【答案】【小题1】A 【小题2】C 【小题3】D 【小题4】B 【小题5】A 【解析】1.A.推理判断题.根据第一段第一句In its early history, Chicago had floods frequently, especially in the spring, making the s treets so muddy that people, horses, and carts got stuck.可推知作者提及这个笑话是为了表明芝加哥的街道非常泥泞.故选A.2.C.细节理解题.根据第三段第一句An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced me the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt.可知让城市规划者相信在地上建管道才能解决洪水泛滥所带来的问题.故选C.3.D.词义猜测题.根据划线词所在句子 or hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level.可知,这里指:抬高整个建筑达到新的街道水平.故选D.4.B.细节理解题.根据第五段内容可推知用螺旋千斤顶把the Tremont Hotel升高的事项进展顺利.故选B.5.A.主旨大意题.结合全文可知本文主要讲的是早期芝加哥如何应对洪水泛滥的问题的故事.故选A.本文主要介绍了芝加哥为了应对洪水泛滥的问题而实行了一系列的措施.阅读理解考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.二、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共30.0分)The journey my daughter Cathy has had with her swimming is as long as it is beautiful.Cathy suffered some terrible(16)in her early childhood.After years of regular treatment,she(17)became healthy.Two years ago,while Cathy was watching the Olympics,a dream came into her sweet little head-to be a swimmer.Last summer,she wanted to (18)our local swim team.She practiced hard and finally (19) it.The team practice,(20),was a rough start.She coughed and choked and could hardly (21)her first few weeks.Hearing her coughing bitterly one night,I decided to (22)her from it all.But Cathy woke me up early next morning,wearing her swimsuit (23)to go!I told her she shouldn't swim after a whole night's coughing,but she refused to (24)and insisted she go.From that day on,Cathy kept swimming and didn't (25)a single practice.She had a (26) intention within herself to be the best she could be.My ten-year-old was growing and changing right before my eyes,into this (27) human being with a passion and a mission.There were moments of (28) of course:often she would be the last swimmer in the race.It was difficult for Cathy to accept that she wasn't a (29)---ever.But that didn't stop her from trying.Then came the final awards ceremony at the end of the year.Cathy didn't expect any award but was still there to (30) her friends and praise their accomplishments.As the ceremony was nearing the end,I suddenly heard the head coach (31),"The highest honor goes toCathy!"Looking around,he continued,"Cathy has inspired us with her (32)and enthusiasm.(33) skills and talents bring great success,the most valuable asset(财富)one canhold is the heart."It was the greatest (34)of my daughter's life.With all she had been (35) in her ten years,this was the hour of true triumph(成功).16.
