the dog mad.When Joey got tired of playing with the dog,he started to go home.Unfortunately,the dog escaped from behind the fence and bit Joey.The invisible enemy-the rabies germs-were passed on from the dog to Joey.Soon the little boy was very sick.Everyone knew that if someone was bitten by a sick,mad dog,that person would become infected with rabies and die.His parents could only wait.But then there was news.Joey's mother saw it and shouted for joy."A doctor of science (24)______ (find)a way to save people like Joey!"she said."He says sick people like Joey have been infected by an invisible

AAre you interested in making a film? In fact making a film t akes a long time and is very hard work. Writing the story for th e film may take many weeks. Shooting the film often takes at l east six months. Actors and cameramen work from very earlyin the morning until late at night. Each scene has to be acted and re-acted, filmed and re-filmed, until it is just right. Sometimes the same scene has to be acted many times.The film studio is like a large factory, and the indoor stage s are very big indeed. Scenery of all kinds is made in the studi o. Churches, houses, and forests are all built of wood and car dboard. Several hundred people work together to make one fil m. Some of these people are the actors and actresses. The di rector of the film, however, is the most important person in a fi lm studio. He decides how the scenes should be filmed and h ow the actors should act.Most people go to see a film because they know the film s tars are in it. Sometimes the film may be very poor. It is best t o choose a film made by a good director. Some famous direct ors make their films very real; people feel that they themselve s are among the people in the films.1.

Writing the storyBDo you have a best friend? In America, when people say “man’s best friend”,they don’t mean another person. Instead, they are talking abo ut a lovely animal-dog! These words show the friendship between people and a nimals. Dogs and other pets can give happiness to people’s li ves. Some people think of their pets as their children. A few e ven leave all their money to their pets when they die!Animals can help people, too. Dogs can be taught to be th e “eyes” for a blind person or “ears” for a deaf person. Scienti sts have found that pets help people live longer! They make p eople happier, too. Because of that, animals are brought into hospitals for “visits”.Americans hold “Be Kind to Animals Week”in the first we ek of May. Pet shows are held during the week. Even if you d on’t live in America, you can do this, too. How? First, think about how animals make your life richer. If you have a pet, take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delici ous food. Also, be sure to keep your pet from those unwanted babies. If you don’t have a pet, be kind to animals around yo u. For example, if you see a dog on the street, don’t kick it or t hrow things at it. Instead, just leave it alone, or better yet, mak e friends with it. If others around you do bad things to an anim al, try to stop them. As people, we must protect animals who c an’t speak for themselves.5. Why are dogs brought into hospitals? ________.A. Because they can make the patients happier.B. Because they can find out the problems of the patients.C. Because they are ill and need to see doctors.D. Because doctors can do experiments on them.6. What is the most popular activity on the “Be Kind to Animal s Week”? ________.A. Playing with pets the whole week.B. Making friends with ot her people's pets.C. Cooking delicious food for pets.D.

Dogs can help people do many things.D. A lot of people ar e interested in dogs.CThe time may soon come when we say goodbye to most of th e world’s languages. Today humansexpress themselves in over 6,000 different languages. But tha t is quickly changing. Many scientists say that over half of the se languages will disappear within the next 50 years. After 10 0 years, the languagesused in the world will not be more than 20.Why? It is because people from different cultures live and work together much more often than before. This brings chan ges. The languages of the world’s main cultures are replacing the languages of the smaller cultures. Most international trad e takes place in world languages such as English. People res pect their own cultures and traditions, but when it comes to ge tting a job, knowing a world language is often necessary. It m ay mean the difference between success and failure.People in different cultures think it good for them to share a popular language. They can quickly share ideas and work to gether. Knowing the same language means easier communic ation and is a basis for trust.Is the death of a small local language such a terrible thing? The answer is maybe. Many cultures may have words for ma ny useful things we know nothing about. If their languages die , their valuable wisdom may be lost forever. The future of the world’s language depends on our actions now. Will we protect endangered languages or allow them to quietly disappear? Time will have the last word.Scientists say that within 50 years, perhaps, there will be only _______languages in the world.A. 6,000B. over 3,000C. around 3,000D. less than209. In “the languages of the world’s main cultures are replacing the languages of the smaller cultures.”the underlined word “replace” means “_______”.A. to put something back into a correct placeB. to take the pla ce of somethingC. to find the good place for something D. to decide how important s omething is10. The passage says that if all the people in the world knewa popular world language, _______.A. people would respect their own culture moreB. people would have no trouble in learning languageC. lessons at schools would be taught in the languageD. it would be easier for them to share their ideas11. According to the passage, if nobody spoke the languages of smaller cultures, _______.A. there would be no smaller culturesB. knowledge would come from the mouths of the eldersC. people would have difficulty in working togetherD. many of the words for things we do not know would be lostDHave you wondered why different animals or pests have t heir particular colours? Colours in them seem to be used mai nly to protect themselves.Birds, especially seagulls are very fond of locusts (蝗虫), but birds can’t easily catch locusts because locusts chang e their colours together with the change of the colour of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But when crops ar e ripe, locusts take on exactly the same brown colour as crop s have. Some other pests with different colours from plants ar e usually easily found and eaten by their enemies. So they ha ve to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at nig ht.If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you willfind the main use of colouring is to protect them. Bears, wolve s and other beasts move quietly through forests. They are usu ally invisible(can’t be seen) to the eyes of hunters, because they have the colour much like the bark(树皮)of trees.An even more strange act remains to be noticed. A kind of fish living in seas can send out a kind of very black liquid whe n it faces danger. While the liquid is over, its enemies cannot f ind it, and it quickly swims away. Thus, it has existed up to no w though it is not powerful at all.12. This passage mainly talks about _______.A. the change of colour in locustsB. animals or pests dye(染色)themselves different coloursC. the protective colour of animals and pestsD. how a certain sea fish protects itselfLocusts are pests but they aren’t easily wiped out by their ene mies because _______.A. they fly very fastB. they are dangerous to their enemiesC. they change colors with the cropsD.they are powerful enough14. The pests that have different colours from plants usually a ppear at night because _______.A. their enemies can easily find them and eat themB. they have the habit of coming out in darknessC. it’s easy for them to destroy plants in darknessD. birds take their rests when night comes15. A certain fish living in seas has lived through millions of ye ar because _______.A. it is the most powerful in the seaB. no other fishes can swim as fast as it canC. the liquid it sends out can kill its enemiesD. the liquid it sends out makes its enemies unable to find 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。

Rather than donating blood to her cause,you wave the insect away.But that rarely wors.Your body usually ends up with one or more itchy(痒的)red welts somewhere.Are there better ways to drive the annoying insects away?Yes, indeed!Preventing mosquito bites can also stop infections with dangerous illness.Mosquito-borne disease such as the ia virus or malaria have terrible results.Several million people worldwide die from disease carried by mosquitoes each year,adding urgency to the battle.Studies have shown that certain groups of people are easy to be bitten by mosquitoes.Theseinclude those who are pregnant,have a higher-than-normal boy temperature or have type O blood.These groups should be aware they are more attractive to mosquitoes and stay inside whenever possible,especially at dawn and dus.Many breeds of mosquitoes are more liely to bite at these times.People should also wear light,bright colors as dar colors attract the insects.Rubbing mosquito repellents(驱蚊剂)on eposed sin eeps the insects away for a time.Studies show that those containing DEET are most effective.Depending on the brand of repellent,the chemical eeps mosquitoes away for 5 to 13 hours.Some plant oils can be used instead of DEET,but they require more frequent application-every two hours—and in greater concentrations.Oils such as lemon eucalyptus or citronella are two possibilities.Another chemical,permethrin,can be applied to clothing to ward off mosquitoes.The chemical stics to the fabric and will last through a few washings.Clothing that has been factory-treated with the chemical is also available. The manufactures say that it will remain the permethrin for about 70 washings.Mosquito coil(圈,卷)also eep mosquitoes away.However,the smoe from them pollutes and can damage the lungs,so they should be used with care.When you're inside,simply plugging in some fans will eep mosquitoes away as they are wea fliers.Everyone wants to avoid mosquito bites,so try several methods to see what wors for you.56.which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Mosquitoes usually don't lie dar colors.B.Mosquitoes don't lie people with type O blood.C.It's not easy to remove some chemical treated off clothing.D.It's not easy to use mosquito coils to drive mosquitoes off.57.What does the phrase ward off in Para 5 most probably mean?A.prevent fromB.tae inC.brea awayD.turn out58.What is the best title of the passage?A.How to get rid of mosquitoes.B.eep mosquitoes away.C.Be aware of mosquitoes.D.Pay attention to mosquitoes.59.What does this article imply about mosquitoes?A.Electric fans can be used to blow mosquitoes away.B.People had better use the methods together to avoid mosquitoes.C.Mosquitoes would lie to bite people at dawn or dus.D.Different people should choose different ways to avoid mosquitoes.Section C (4%)Directions Read the following passage.Fill in each blan with a proper sentence given in the bo.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need. A.English is closely related to German,but it uses many words from French.B.English is a multi-culture,which has different bacground and people.C.This is partly because English includes words from so many languages.D.Over fifty countries have English as their official language and use it for higher education.E.Some English speaers use words only to fill pauses when they tal.F.People usually use some special words to avoid embarrassing occasions.Let's learn about EnglishIf you're reading this,you've probably already spent many hours studying English.But here are facts you may not now about the languageEnglish is one of the most common languages in the world.Some eperts estimate that English has about 339 million native speaers._60_.This does not include the United States,which has no official language.English is also the official language of the sy.That means all pilots use it on international flights._61_This is because a French-speaing ruler conquered England in the 11th century.English also includes words from many other languages.This is because people in British colonies spoe many languages.Words from many of those languages were added to English.Other words are added even today.As a result,English has one of the largest vocabularies of any language.You've probably noticed that English spelling can be hard to predict.For eample,the long "e"sound can be spelled eight different ways.And the letters—"ough"—can be pronounced nine ways!_62_Spelling of English words often reflected their origins.The most common letter used in English is "e".But more words begin with "s" than any other in the alphabet.Most English words thyme with at least one other word.But month,orange,silver and purple don't thyme with anything._63_Some common eamples are lie,just and basically.These words are called 'crutch words',and it's best to avoid them.People who use too many crutch words sound lie they aren't sure what they're trying to say.However much you now about English,there's always more to learn about this strange and interesting language.Ⅳ.Translation (15%) (3+3+4+5)Directions Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the bracets.64.现在看,学生必须下定决心学好英语口语了。

AToo many people want others to be their friends, but they don't give friendship back. That is why some friendships don't last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven't been honest, you may lose your friend's trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with each other. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend's place so that you can understand the problem better.No two friendships are exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.1.Some friendships don't last long because _____.A. there are too many people who want to make friendsB. some people receive friendship but don't give friendship backC. those who give others friendship receive friendship from othersD. they don't know friendship is something serious2. According to the passage, honesty is _____.A. something countableB. the base of friendshipC. as important as moneyD. more important than anything else3. Which of the following isn't mentioned in the passage.? _____.A. Always tell your friends the truth.B. Sharing your mind with your friends is of great value.C. Discussing your problems with your friends often helps to solve the problem.D. A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend.4. In the third paragraph, the underlined word they refers to (指) _____.A. generosity and friendshipB. generosity and sharingC. your ideas and feelingsD. your clothesBIf you go into the forest with friends,stay with them. If you don‘t,you may get lost. If you get lost,this is what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends—let them find you. You can help them find you by staying in one place. There is another way to help your friends or other people to find you. You can shout or whistle three times. Stop. Then shout or whistle three times again. Any signal given three times is a call for help. Keep up shouting or whistling. Always three times together. When people hear you,they will know that you are not just making a noise for fun. They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They will give you two shouts or two whistles. When a signal is given twice,it is an answer to a call for help. If you don‘t think that you will get help before night comes,try to make a little house with branches. Make yourself a bed with leaves and grass. When you need some water,you have to leave your little branch house to look for it. Don’t just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk in order to go back again easily. When you are lost,the most important thing to do is to stay in one place.5.Which signal is a call for help?A.shouting here and thereB.crying twiceC.shouting or whistling three times togetherD. whistling every where in the forest6.When you hear two shouts or two whistles,you know that ____________________.A. someone is afraid of an animalB. people will come to help youC. someone needs helpD. something terrible will happen7.What‘s the meaning of the underlined sentence?A.

The world is black and white to them.Scientists want to find out if (是否) dogs can see colours. When the scientists give the dogs food, they show them a certain colour every time. The dogs get ready to eat when they see this colour. The scientists then show the dogs another colour. Again the dogs get ready to eat. The colours are all the same to them.Colours are not all the same to monkeys. For example, if we put food in a red box, and do this every day,a monkey will always go to the red box to get food. If we put food in a blue box, the monkey won't go to it.9.

They believe that their family members, especially their parents, don’t know them as well their friends do. In large families, it is often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice. It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or many friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in children’s growing up, because friend can discuss something difficult to say to their family members.However, parents often try to choose their children’s friends for them. Some p arents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of “choice” is an interesting one. Have you ever thought of the following questions? Who choose your friends? Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you? Have you got a good friends your parent don’t like?13.

He moved from Kentucky to Indiana when I was seven. We reached our new home about the time the state came into the Union. It was a wild area, with many bears and other wild animals still in the woods. I grew up there. There were some so-called schools, but what was required of a teacher never went beyond “reading, writing, and adding.” If a stranger supposed to understand Latin happened to live for a time in the area, he was looked on as wizard (奇才). There was simply nothing to excite a desire for education. Of course, when I grew up, I did not know much. Still, somehow, I could read, write, and add, but that was all. The advance I have now made is on this store of education, which I have picked up under the pressure of necessity.16.When the writer was a child ____ .A. his grandfather died in the state of KentuckyB. his family settled down in the countryside of IndianaC.

"Once I find that invisible enemy,I'll think of a way to kill it.I just know I (19) do it."Many people thought Pasteur was wasting his time.Some laughed at him and said,"You'll never do it.No one can find (20) invisible enemy!"Pasteur didn't care (21) people thought,he believed in (22) .He kept right on working.Meanwhile,in German,a boy named Joey was about to get into trouble.He wasn't a bad boy,he was just thoughtless,as children sometimes are.He was playing with a dog.But this dog was sick with rabies,(23) made the dog mad.When Joey got tired of playing with the dog,he started to go home.Unfortunately,the dog escaped from behind the fence and bit Joey.The invisible enemy—the rabies germs—were passed on from the dog to Joey.Soon the little boy was very sick.Everyone knew that if someone was bitten by a sick,mad dog,that person would become infected with rabies and die.His parents could only wait.But then there was news.Joey's mother saw it and shouted for joy."A doctor of science (24) (find) a way to save people like Joey!"she said."He says sick people like Joey have been infected by an invisible enemy,and he's found a way to kill it!"The man,of course,was Louis Pasteur.He had done what he had set out to do.Joey's parents quickly prepared Joey (25) the long journey to Paris."Dr.Pasteur,"said the mother upon their arrival at Pasteur's residence,"we've come a long way.Our little boy (26) (bite) by a mad dog,and he's very sick.Can you help us?""Perhaps,"said Pasteur."I've invented a vaccine(疫苗).It is strong enough to kill the invisible enemy.Joey was finally saved and later became a gatekeeper at the Pasteur Institute.Section B (10%)Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.Each word can only be used once.Note that there is one word more than you need.A.threatB.certainC.developingD.necessarilyE.checkedF.potentialG.speciallyH.connectionI.preserveJ.exerciseK.healthyYou've probably heard of the list of factors that put you at risk for heart disease: smoking,poor diet,lack of_27_ and so on.But did you know that the health of your gums(牙龈)may also affect your chance of_28_heart disease?More than 120 studies have investigated the_29_link between gum disease and heart disease.Most of them say that gum disease is a risk factor for heart disease and other diseases that affect blood vessels.This means that people with gum disease often develop heart disease but that gum disease doesn't_30_cause heart disease.Doctors and scientists have proposed a number of possible reasons for this connection.One common factor is inflammation(发炎),which occurs when the body senses a_31_and sends white blood cells to attack it.This leads to painful swelling(肿胀),which is the main symptom of gum disease.White inflammation hasn't been shown to cause heart disease,it often accompanies it.And as it turns out,the same types of bacteria often lead to inflammation in both diseases.It's also possible that the_32_has less to do with biology than with an individual's habits.Perhaps people who take good care of their teeth make other healthy choices that prevent heart disease.So what does this mean for your health?Since the role of gum disease in causing heart disease isn't_33_,don't take it for granted that taking care of your teeth will protect your heart.Certainly,brushing and cleaning are not replacement for exercise and a_34_diet.But keeping your mouth healthy and avoiding gum disease are still good goals to go after.They'll spare you pain and high dental bills and keep your bright smile complete.This research does mean that if you have gum disease,you should get your heart_35_this is especially true if you are at risk of heart disease for other reason,such as smoking.Who would have thought that your mouth and your heart would be connected?The body is a complex and mysterious thing,so do all you can to_36_it.Ⅲ.Reading ComprehensionSection A (14%)Directions: For each blank in the following passage,there are four words marked A,B,C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The secret to Dwanyne Johnson's success is simple—he gives people what they want.TROUBLED YOUTHWhen he was young,Johnson's family_37_with money,which led him down a bad path.While they lived in Hawaii,Johnson stole form tourists and high-end stores.When this_38_police involvement,he decided to make a_39_.

Rather than donating blood to her cause,you wave the insect away.But that rarely works.Your body usually ends up with one or more itchy(痒的)red welts somewhere.Are there better ways to drive the annoying insects away?Yes, indeed!Preventing mosquito bites can also stop infections with dangerous illness.Mosquito-borne disease such as the Zika virus or malaria have terrible results.Several million people worldwide die from disease carried by mosquitoes each year,adding urgency to the battle.Studies have shown that certain groups of people are easy to be bitten by mosquitoes.These include those who are pregnant,have a higher-than-normal boy temperature or have type O blood.These groups should be aware they are more attractive to mosquitoes and stay inside whenever possible,especially at dawn and dusk.Many breeds of mosquitoes are more likely to bite at these times.People should also wear light,bright colors as dark colors attract the insects.Rubbing mosquito repellents(驱蚊剂)on exposed skin keeps the insects away for a time.Studies show that those containing DEET are most effective.Depending on the brand of repellent,the chemical keeps mosquitoes away for 5 to 13 hours.Some plant oils can be used instead of DEET,but they require more frequent application-every two hours—and in greater concentrations.Oils such as lemon eucalyptus or citronella are two possibilities.Another chemical,permethrin,can be applied to clothing to ward off mosquitoes.The chemical sticks to the fabric and will last through a few washings.Clothing that has been factory-treated with the chemical is alsoavailable. The manufactures say that it will remain the permethrin for about 70 washings.Mosquito coil(圈,卷)also keep mosquitoes away.However,the smoke from them pollutes and can damage the lungs,so they should be used with care.When you're inside,simply plugging in some fans will keep mosquitoes away as they are weak fliers.Everyone wants to avoid mosquito bites,so try several methods to see what works for you.56.which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Mosquitoes usually don't like dark colors.B.Mosquitoes don't like people with type O blood.C.It's not easy to remove some chemical treated off clothing.D.It's not easy to use mosquito coils to drive mosquitoes off.57.What does the phrase ward off in Para 5 most probably mean?A.prevent fromB.take inC.break awayD.turn out58.What is the best title of the passage?A.How to get rid of mosquitoes.B.Keep mosquitoes away.C.Be aware of mosquitoes.D.Pay attention to mosquitoes.59.What does this article imply about mosquitoes?A.Electric fans can be used to blow mosquitoes away.B.People had better use the methods together to avoid mosquitoes.C.Mosquitoes would like to bite people at dawn or dusk.D.Different people should choose different ways to avoid mosquitoes.Section C (4%)Directions: Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.English is closely related to German,but it uses many words from French.B.English is a multi-culture,which has different background and people.C.This is partly because English includes words from so many languages.D.Over fifty countries have English as their official language and use it for higher education.E.Some English speakers use words only to fill pauses when they talk.F.People usually use some special words to avoid embarrassing occasions.Let's learn about EnglishIf you're reading this,you've probably already spent many hours studying English.But here are facts you may not know about the language:English is one of the most common languages in the world.Some experts estimate that English has about 339 million native speakers._60_.This does not include the United States,which has no official language.English is also the official language of the sky.That means all pilots use it on international flights._61_This is because a French-speaking ruler conquered England in the 11th century.English also includes words from many other languages.This is because people in British colonies spoke many languages.Words from many of those languages were added to English.Other words are added even today.As a result,English has one of the largest vocabularies of any language.You've probably noticed that English spelling can be hard to predict.For example,the long "e"sound can be spelled eight different ways.And the letters—"ough"—can be pronounced nine ways!_62_Spelling of English words often reflected their origins.The most common letter used in English is "e".But more words begin with "s" than any other in the alphabet.Most English words thyme with at least one other word.But month,orange,silver and purple don't thyme with anything._63_Some common examples are like,just and basically.These words are called 'crutch words',and it's best to avoid them.People who use too many crutch words sound like they aren't sure what they're trying to say.However much you know about English,there's always more to learn about this strange and interesting language.Ⅳ.Translation (15%) (3+3+4+5)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.64.现在看来,学生必须下定决心学好英语口语了。

She already had more clothes than she knew what to do with them, so he couldn’t get any kind of apparel. She never ate sweets, so candy was out of the question. What then? He had a very special reason for wanting to impress her with just the right gift. All girls liked perfume. That raised another problem, however. What kind did she prefer? He couldn’t ask her because that would ruin the surprise.At last the young man hit upon a brilliant idea. That afternoon, pretending to take his girlfriend’ fox terrier, little dog for a walk, the young man and the dog went directly to the perfume counter of the town’s biggest department store. Good! There was a large array of perfume. He beckoned a shop assistant, instructing her to take out a lot of perfume test paper and wave each kind under the dog’s nose. Nestled in the young man’s arms, the terrier began to be restless and bored as this seemingly pointless game went on. Then Fritz suddenly become frisky, wiggling in the young man’s arms and barking excitedly, as the assistant waved one piece of test paper under its nose.“I’ll take that one,” said the young man to the assistant. The price was high, but it was worth it, he thought.“My favorite perfume!” said the delighted girl the next evening as she unwrapped the package. “How did you know?” she asked, dabbing some perfume behind each ear.“Intuition(直觉), I guess.” Said the young man, deciding that it wasn’t exactly wrong to tell a lie under the circumstances.

The introduction of the Internet results in a new kind of newspaper. That is called digital newspaper. Unlike the traditional newspapers issued by using print on the paper, digital newspapers publish on the Internet. This kind of newspaper is not only the digital edition of papernewspapers. It contains more technical devices.Because the Internet creates a special condition, there are four key changes of digital newspapers compared with traditional newspapers. First of all, digital newspapers are not updated day by day. If any news happens, there will be correlative reports on the newspaper websites immediately. The instant update is the most important development of contemporary newspapers caused by the Internet. In addition, it can also include hyperlinks(超链接). It is another advantage of digital newspapers. Readers can access another concerned website through these hyperlinks. It is more convenient for readers to obtain detailed information. Some online newspaper websites have a BBS (Bulletin Board System), databases and other distinctive services. Thus different from traditional newspapers, digital newspapers can exchange information with readers. McAdams(1995) claimed that unlike traditional newspapers, the readers could expect some feedbacks of online newspapers. Another change is electronic newspapers can extend the scope(范围) traditional newspapers could cover. A case in point is there is a website which contains almost 200 newspapers from 55 countries. Anyone, who wants to see some newspapers are not published in his area, can just read them online. Ultimately, there have been some digital newspapers with Multi-media such as visible or audible reports in it. Anyhow, the changes of newspapers are obvious and available. Newspapers are and will be developed to more potential because of the introduction of the Internet.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements with NO MORE THAN 10 WORDS.)72. What leads to the birth of digital newspapers?73. The most important advantage of the digital newspaper is _____________________________.74.

2016-2017学年高一英语下学期期末考试试题(试题总分:120分答题时间:120分钟)温馨提示: 亲爱的同学们,轻轻的对自己说:“我能行”,用你的智慧和信心,相信你会最棒!第一部分:阅读理解(共15题,每题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项ABCD中,选出最佳项。
ASwimming is one of those activities that can be learned early i n life. Little children can learn to swim as soon as they walk. I n fact, you need the same skills in walking as in swimming. H owever, I believe that five is the best age to learn .By five or si x, a child knows fear of water, a very important thing to know. It's wise to be afraid, to recognize true danger. Young ones u nderstand that the water can sometimes be very dangerous. To really benefit from swimming, every swimmer should learn, as soon as possible, these four basic(基本的) 自由strokes(划水动作); butterfly ,backstroke, breastststroke, and crawl.(自泳)。
I feel that one of these the breaststroke is different fro m the others, since some young swimmers use this stroke nat urally ,without any training.In swimming there are certain rules every swimmer should foll ow:(1).Never swim alone!No matter how good you are in the water, don't risk drowning (溺水) by swimming alone. If you swim by yourself, with no life guards or friends with you, you may get into trouble.(2).Don't go beyond your abilities.Most swimmers know enough not to swim too far from the ba nk or the beach, showing off by doing dangerous tricks is no g ood.Swim safely and you will continue to swim and alive.(3).Don't smoke. Swimming depends on a healthy body; good lungs are part of it.(4).Work at any activity that builds muscles.(肌肉)1.Little children can learn to swim as soon as _____.A.they can talkB.they start walkingC.they have no fear of the waterD.they are five or six years2.The author believes that fear of water is_____.A.stupidB.sensibleC.dangerousD.not smart3.According to the passage, you should not swim alone becau se_____.A.the water is too coldB.your parents would not be happ yC.something in the water might attackD.you might drown BThe best time to visit Sydney really depends on what you wan t to see, do, or experience, though the typical(平常的,一贯的) time for any tourist dreaming of getting the most out of th eir holiday is summer, which starts on December 1 and ends on the last day of February. You will find yourself constantly (不断地)exploring the Australian sunny way of life.Festival TimeThe Sydney summer is actually a season of festivals, starting from the Christmas season in December. With this festivity in the air, it’s clear to see that the summers in Australia are alrea dy off to a great start!On Boxing Day, December 26, the Sydney to Hobart Yacht R ace starts in Sydney Harbour. The Sydney Festival, a month-long celebration of the arts, is on in January and runs until Au stralia Day, January 26. The Great Ferry Race is held on Aust ralia Day in Sydney Harbour. You may be able to ride on one of the racing ferries. The Sydney Fringe Festival may be held within this period as well. Summer AccommodationPrices will generally be in the high range, particularly from the middle of December through all of January to the beginning o f February. Best to book in advance.School HolidaysAustralia’s school holidays occur from mid-December through most of January, so expect much entertain ment for families and school children on holidays. Expect bea ches, theme parks, and picnic grounds, holiday resorts to be c rowded.Summer ActivitiesDo a walking tour of Sydney. Visit the Rocks, the Sydney Ope ra House, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Hyde Park, Chinatown, Darling Harbour. Go to the beach. A visit to Sydney is incomp lete without at least a day on the beach. You could go surfing or windsurfing.If you’re feeling a bit more adventurous (冒险的)you could take a long drive up the Blue Mountains to meet the Three Sisters. Alternatively, you could take a daytrip north, s outh and west of Sydney that is perfect for bushwalking. But b e sure there are no warnings of bushfire danger where you w ant to go.

上海市宝山区高一下学期期末考试英语试题Ⅱ.Grammar and VocabularySection A (10%)Directions: After reading the passages below,fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct.For the blanks with a given word,fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word;for the other blanks,use one word that best fits each blank.In France,there once lived a man named Louis Pasteur,who was a doctor of science.The thing (17) occupied his mind was the disease rabies."I must find the rabies germs that hide inside people and make them so sick (18) they die,"he thought. "Once I find that invisible enemy,I'll think of a way to kill it.I just know I (19) do it."Many people thought Pasteur was wasting his time.Some laughed at him and said,"You'll never do it.No one can find (20) invisible enemy!"Pasteur didn't care (21) people thought,he believed in (22) .He kept right on working.Meanwhile,in German,a boy named Joey was about to get into trouble.He wasn't a bad boy,he was just thoughtless,as children sometimes are.He was playing with a dog.But this dog was sick with rabies,(23) made the dog mad.When Joey got tired of playing with the dog,he started to go home.Unfortunately,the dog escaped from behind the fence and bit Joey.The invisible enemy—the rabies germs—were passed on from the dog to Joey.Soon the little boy was very sick.Everyone knew that if someone was bitten by a sick,mad dog,that person would become infected with rabies and die.His parents could only wait.But then there was news.Joey's mother saw it and shouted for joy."A doctor of science (24) (find) a way to save people like Joey!"she said."He says sick people like Joey have been infected by an invisible enemy,and he's found a way to kill it!"The man,of course,was Louis Pasteur.He had done what he had set out to do.Joey's parents quickly prepared Joey (25) the long journey to Paris."Dr.Pasteur,"said the mother upon their arrival at Pasteur's residence,"we've come a long way.Our little boy (26) (bite) by a mad dog,and he's very sick.Can you help us?""Perhaps,"said Pasteur."I've invented a vaccine(疫苗).It is strong enough to kill the invisible enemy.Joey was finally saved and later became a gatekeeper at the Pasteur Institute.Section B (10%)Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.Each word can only be used once.Note that there is one word more than you need.A.threatB.certainC.developingD.necessarilyE.checkedF.potentialG.speciallyH.connectionI.preserveJ.exerciseK.healthyYou've probably heard of the list of factors that put you at risk for heart disease: smoking,poor diet,lack of_27_ and so on.But did you know that the health of your gums(牙龈)may also affect your chance of_28_heart disease?More than 120 studies have investigated the_29_link between gum disease and heart disease.Most of them say that gum disease is a risk factor for heart disease and other diseases that affect blood vessels.This means that people with gum disease often develop heart disease but that gum disease doesn't_30_cause heart disease.Doctors and scientists have proposed a number of possible reasons for this connection.One common factor is inflammation(发炎),which occurs when the body senses a_31_and sends white blood cells to attack it.This leads to painful swelling(肿胀),which is the main symptom of gum disease.White inflammation hasn't been shown to cause heart disease,it often accompanies it.And as it turns out,the same types of bacteria often lead to inflammation in both diseases.It's also possible that the_32_has less to do with biology than with an individual's habits.Perhaps people who take good care of their teeth make other healthy choices that prevent heart disease.So what does this mean for your health?Since the role of gum disease in causing heart disease isn't_33_,don't take it for granted that taking care of your teeth will protect your heart.Certainly,brushing and cleaning are not replacement for exercise and a_34_diet.But keeping your mouth healthy and avoiding gum disease are still good goals to go after.They'll spare you pain and high dental bills and keep your bright smile complete.This research does mean that if you have gum disease,you should get your heart_35_this is especially true if you are at risk of heart disease for other reason,such as smoking.Who would have thought that your mouth and your heart would be connected?The body is a complex and mysterious thing,so do all you can to_36_it.Ⅲ.Reading ComprehensionSection A (14%)Directions: For each blank in the following passage,there are four words marked A,B,C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The secret to Dwanyne Johnson's success is simple—he gives people what they want.TROUBLED YOUTHWhen he was young,Johnson's family_37_with money,which led him down a bad path.While they lived in Hawaii,Johnson stole form tourists and high-end stores.When this_38_police involvement,he decided to make a_39_.

Rather than donating blood to her cause,you wave the insect away.But that rarely works.Your body usually ends up with one or more itchy(痒的)red welts somewhere.Are there better ways to drive the annoying insects away?Yes, indeed!Preventing mosquito bites can also stop infections with dangerous illness.Mosquito-borne disease such as the Zika virus or malaria have terrible results.Several million people worldwide die from disease carried by mosquitoes each year,adding urgency to the battle.Studies have shown that certain groups of people are easy to be bitten by mosquitoes.These include those who are pregnant,have a higher-than-normal boy temperature or have type O blood.These groups should be aware they are more attractive to mosquitoes and stay inside whenever possible,especially at dawn and dusk.Many breeds of mosquitoes are more likely to bite at these times.People should also wear light,bright colors as dark colors attract the insects.Rubbing mosquito repellents(驱蚊剂)on exposed skin keeps the insects away for a time.Studies show that those containing DEET are most effective.Depending on the brand of repellent,the chemical keeps mosquitoes away for 5 to 13 hours.Some plant oils can be used instead of DEET,but they require more frequent application-every two hours—and in greater concentrations.Oils such as lemon eucalyptus or citronella are two possibilities.Another chemical,permethrin,can be applied to clothing to ward off mosquitoes.The chemical sticks to the fabric and will last through a few washings.Clothing that has been factory-treated with the chemical is alsoavailable. The manufactures say that it will remain the permethrin for about 70 washings.Mosquito coil(圈,卷)also keep mosquitoes away.However,the smoke from them pollutes and can damage the lungs,so they should be used with care.When you're inside,simply plugging in some fans will keep mosquitoes away as they are weak fliers.Everyone wants to avoid mosquito bites,so try several methods to see what works for you.56.which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Mosquitoes usually don't like dark colors.B.Mosquitoes don't like people with type O blood.C.It's not easy to remove some chemical treated off clothing.D.It's not easy to use mosquito coils to drive mosquitoes off.57.What does the phrase ward off in Para 5 most probably mean?A.prevent fromB.take inC.break awayD.turn out58.What is the best title of the passage?A.How to get rid of mosquitoes.B.Keep mosquitoes away.C.Be aware of mosquitoes.D.Pay attention to mosquitoes.59.What does this article imply about mosquitoes?A.Electric fans can be used to blow mosquitoes away.B.People had better use the methods together to avoid mosquitoes.C.Mosquitoes would like to bite people at dawn or dusk.D.Different people should choose different ways to avoid mosquitoes.Section C (4%)Directions: Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.English is closely related to German,but it uses many words from French.B.English is a multi-culture,which has different background and people.C.This is partly because English includes words from so many languages.D.Over fifty countries have English as their official language and use it for higher education.E.Some English speakers use words only to fill pauses when they talk.F.People usually use some special words to avoid embarrassing occasions.Let's learn about EnglishIf you're reading this,you've probably already spent many hours studying English.But here are facts you may not know about the language:English is one of the most common languages in the world.Some experts estimate that English has about 339 million native speakers._60_.This does not include the United States,which has no official language.English is also the official language of the sky.That means all pilots use it on international flights._61_This is because a French-speaking ruler conquered England in the 11th century.English also includes words from many other languages.This is because people in British colonies spoke many languages.Words from many of those languages were added to English.Other words are added even today.As a result,English has one of the largest vocabularies of any language.You've probably noticed that English spelling can be hard to predict.For example,the long "e"sound can be spelled eight different ways.And the letters—"ough"—can be pronounced nine ways!_62_Spelling of English words often reflected their origins.The most common letter used in English is "e".But more words begin with "s" than any other in the alphabet.Most English words thyme with at least one other word.But month,orange,silver and purple don't thyme with anything._63_Some common examples are like,just and basically.These words are called 'crutch words',and it's best to avoid them.People who use too many crutch words sound like they aren't sure what they're trying to say.However much you know about English,there's always more to learn about this strange and interesting language.Ⅳ.Translation (15%) (3+3+4+5)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.64.现在看来,学生必须下定决心学好英语口语了。
