高中英语真题-2013年高考第二轮复习英语湖北版_6
高中英语真题:2013年高考第二轮复习英语湖北版A(2012湖北八校二次联考)For the past two years, 8yearold Harli Jordean from Stoke Newi ngton, London, has been selling marbles(弹珠). His successful marble company, Marble King, sells all thing s marblerelated—from affordable tubs of the glass playthings to significantly expe nsive items like Duke of York solitaire tables—sourced, purchased and processed by the miniCEO himself.“I like having my own company. I like being the boss，” Harli tol d The Mirror.With profits now in the thousands, “the world's youngest CEO”has had to get his mother and older brothers to help him meet t he growing demand.Harli launched Marble King after swapping marbles at school le d to schoolchildren consuming his marble collection. Yes, he lit erally “lost his marbles.” Harli and his mother, Tina, turned to th e Internet to find replacements.Harli saw an empty space online: the marbles he wanted were hard to find. Within months，Harli had his own marbleselling website—and orders started pouring in.Tina says her son's attachment to marbles started when he was just 6.“His attachment became so passionate that we started calling h im the Marble King —so when he wanted to set up a website it was the natural name for it，” she told The Sun.“I never thought it would become so popular— we are strugglin g to cope with the number of orders at times.”The 8yearold boy has his sights set on expanding his business and launching his own brand of marbles.“Sometimes his ideas are so grand we have to scale them back a bit. But his dream is still to own Britain's biggest marble shop and open stores around the world，” Tina told The Daily Mail.“At the moment he is annoying me by creating his own Marble King marbles— so that could well be the next step for him.”1．Harli's Marble Company became popular as soon as he lau nched it because ______.A．it was run by “the world's youngest CEO”B．it filled the gap of online marble tradeC．Harli was fascinated with marble collectionD．Harli met the growing demand of the customers2．How many mass media are mentioned in the passage? A．One B．TwoC．Three D．Four3．The underlined expression “scale them back” is closest in m eaning to ______.A．hold them down B．carry them out C．set them asideD．clear them away4．What message do the last two paragraphs carry? A．Conflicts often occur between Harli Jordean and his family. B．Harli's mother and brothers are worried about Marble King's future.C．Marble King marbles will surely attract more fans around th e world.D．The “Marble King” has great ambition for his Marble King co mpany.BDo American children still learn handwriting in school? In the age of the keyboard, some people seem to think handwritin g lessons are on the way out. 90% of teachers say they are req uired to teach handwriting. But studies have yet to answer the q uestion of how well they are teaching it. One study published thi s year found that about three out of every four teachers say the y are not prepared to teach handwriting. Some teachers are tea ching handwriting by providing instruction for ten to fifteen minut es a day, and then other teachers who basically teach it for sixt y to seventy minutes a day— which really is pretty much for han dwriting.Many adults remember learning that way— by copying letters o ver and over again.Today's thinking is that short periods of prac tice are better.Many experts also think handwriting should not b e taught by itself.Instead，they say it should be used as a way to get students to express i deas.After all，that is why we write.Handwriting involves two skills.One is legibility，which means forming the letters so they can be read.The other i s fluency— writing without having to think about it.Fluency conti nues to develop up until high school.But not everyone masters these skills. Teachers commonly rep ort that about one fourth of their kids have poor handwriting. So me people might think handwriting is not important any more because of computers and voice recognition programs.But Steve Graham at Vanderbilt says word processing is rarely done in elementary school, especially in the early years. Americ an children traditionally first learn to print, and then to write in c ursive, which connects the letters. But guess what we learned fr om a spokeswoman for the College Board, which administers th e SAT college admission test. More than 75% of students choo se to print their essay on the test rather than write in cursive. 5．We can infer from the first paragraph that ______. A．teachers spend little time in teaching handwritingB．most teachers attach importance to teaching handwriting C．handwriting teaching is not commonly requiredD．most teachers are at a loss how to teach handwriting 6．Which of the following about traditional handwriting in the U SA is NOT true?A．The students are taught by practicing a long period. B．Printing is taught in preference to writing in cursive. C．Handwriting is taught for its own sake.D．Two skills get involved in handwriting.7．Some people consider handwriting not important any more because ______.A．all the American children learn to print firstB．about 1/4 of the students choose to print their essay on the t estC．it is unnecessary to use handwriting in the age of keyboard D．computers and voice recognition programs are widely used 8．“______” may serve as the best title for the passage. A．Handwriting: fascinating in keyboard ageB．Right or wrong: the death of handwritingC．Two skills involved in handwritingD．Handwriting lessons on the way outCSeen from space the Earth is covered in a blue mantle. It is a pl anet on which the continents are dwarfed (相形见绌) by the oceans surrounding them and the vastness of the ma rine area.An astonishing 80 percent of all the life on Earth is to be found hidden beneath the waves and this vast global ocean pulses ar ound our world driving the natural forces which keep life on our planet.The oceans provide necessary sources of protein, energy, mine rals and other products of use the world over and the rolling of t he sea across the planet creates over half our oxygen, drives weather systems and natural flows of energy and nutrients aroun d the world, transports water masses many times greater than a ll the rivers on land combined and keeps the Earth habitable. Without the global ocean there would be no life on Earth.It is seriously worrying, then, that we are damaging the oceans on a scale that is unimaginable to most people.We now know that human activity can have serious influences on the vital forces working on our planet. We have fundamentall y changed our global climate and are just beginning to understa nd the consequences of that.As yet largely unseen, but just as serious, are the influences we are having on the oceans.A healthy ocean has diverse ecosystems and strong and health y habitats. The actual state of our oceans is a far cry from this n atural level.A large quantity of human pressures are being exerted both dir ectly and indirectly on ocean ecosystems the world over. Conse quently ecosystems are collapsing as marine species are drive n towards extinction and ocean habitats are destroyed. With the decrease and removement of their diversity, ocean ecosystem s are losing their natural recovery.9．The 2nd and the 3rd paragraphs are given mainly to describe ______.A．what the oceans look likeB．what the oceans are made up ofC．what live in the oceansD．what functions the oceans have10．The oceans provide all the following except ______. A．various marine creaturesB．rich living resourcesC．all natural forcesD．comfortable habitats for man11．Man has not yet realized ______.A．that he has done harm to the oceansB．that he has done harm to the planetC．that he has benefited from the oceansD．that he has benefited from the planet12．The best title for this passage should be ______. A．Protecting our planetB．Defending our oceansC．Making good use of our oceansD．A glimpse of the oceansDThere are plenty of creams etc. on the market that help you loo k younger, but today, Dr.Oz is going to show how some people are actually living longer.“We are going to talk about extreme life extension，” he says. “I am talking in detail about allowing us to go into our second cen tury of life with the energy that you have when you are a young person.”Owing to advances in technology and research on how diet affe cts the aging process, Dr.Oz says it might be possible for some people to live to see their 120th birthdays.There's one man in Oprah's audience who Dr.Oz says may bec ome the first man in history to live to be 150 years old. Joe Cor dell is one of thousands around the world who believe they've f ound the key to an extremely long life — calorie restriction lead s to a longer, healthier life.At 59 Joe weighs 130 pounds. He may not look like a person w ho needs to count calories, but as part of his life extension prog ram, he inspects every mouthful of food that passes through his system.Every day for the past seven years, Joe has limited himself to a bout 1,950 calories.He believes that by eating less and restricting his calorie intake, he will trigger a genetic switch that slows the aging process. Joe doesn't rid himself of food. Instead, the then 52yearold fath er filled up on natural fruits, vegetables and lean proteins(瘦蛋白 ) that were packed with necessary vitamins and nutrients. “Whenever you are thinking about calorie restriction, you should continually think about getting the most nutritional amount per c alorie，” Joe says.In keeping with this principle, Joe starts every morning with thre e apples... but he only eats the peels.“Most of the fiber is in the peel, and more importantly, most of the nutrients are in the peel ，” he says.“It is important to eat some nuts with breakfast so that you do ta ke in some fat, some healthy fats，” he says. “I think it helps th e absorption of the nutrients, and it is very filling.”For lunch, Joe usually eats a large salad, loaded with vegetable s. At dinner time, he and his family enjoy lean meat or fish and more vegetables.When Joe started practicing calorie restriction, he weighed 175 pounds. Since then, he has lost 45 pounds, and he says he hasn't had a cold in seven years. Though he is in his “golden y ears”， researchers studying Joe say he has the body of a 20y earold athlete.13．According to Joe, the appropriate fat intake may help ____ __.A．people lose weightB．people feel always fullC．the absorption of the nutrientsD．people live longer14．What can we learn about Joe since he started the calorie r estriction program?A．Joe counts the amount of every meal.B．Joe has never had a cold.C．Joe eats three apples every morning.D．Joe has a large salad with vegetables for dinner.15．The underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 7 can probably be replaced by ______.A．turn on B．break downC．take up D. cut off16．According to the passage, the extreme life extension refers to ______.A．living very long even sickB．how to make people lead a happy lifeC．living long and having a healthy bodyD．how to arrange our foods every dayEThe concept of solar power satellites, or SPS, first put forward i n the 1960s, is still not widely known by the general public. For example, at many public exhibitions about energy, SPS is not e ven mentioned. This is mainly because very little money has be en spent on SPS research.There are people who claim that SPS is unrealistic— because l aunch costs are much too high today; or because it is too far a way. So why do we believe that it is important to continue to do researches on SPS? The reason is very simple.Humans are going to need huge amounts of electric power in c oming decades. Within 50 years the world population is expect ed to double, while economic growth will continue around the w orld, especially in the poorer countries. But existing energy so urces already face serious problems. They are limited; they are polluted; they are dangerous. So 50 or 100 years from now, wh ere is our power going to come from? Nobody knows. So we be lieve that new largescale possibilities should be studied further. We must remember that humans have some choices concerni ng our future. To some extent we can choose the direction in w hich our civilization develops. And choices that are made in the coming decadessuch as the energy sources that we will or willnot use, will have major, longterm meaning for human life on e arth. We believe that if research continues to show that SPS is environmentally and economically attractive, SPS will open the door to a much more attractive future for human civilization than any groundbased energy source, and one that the public will s upport and that young people will find challenging and exciting. Furthermore energy from SPS can be readily used in developin g countries, as the SPS 2000 project will show, thus aiding eco nomic development worldwide. In addition, by creating large co mmercial fund for space engineering, SPS will open the frontier of space to economic development, thus creating a limitless ne w field for the growth of the world economy.17．Which of the following may be the best title for the passage ?A．The Future Energy—SPSB．The Concept of SPSC．Humans and SPSD．Advantages of SPS18．Which of the following statements about SPS is TRUE? A．The research on SPS started in the 1960s is still not appreci ated by the public.B．The research shows that SPS can benefit both the environment and the economy at present.C．The energy from SPS is now being used in some developin g countries.D．The public don't know about SPS because little time is devo ted to the research.19．Paragraph 3 mainly talks about ______.A．the present serious energy problemsB．where to get energy sources in the futureC．the importance of controlling the world populationD．the need to explore new energy sources20．The writer's attitude towards the research can best be sum marized by the saying “______”．A. In time of peace prepare for warB. Put the cart before the horseC．One man's meat is another man's poisonD．Easier said than done2013年高考第二轮复习英语湖北版A(2012湖北八校二次联考)For the past two years, 8yearold Harli Jordean from Stoke Newington, London, has been sellingmarbles(弹珠).

B．February. C．October. D．September. 4．Rafting the Grand Canyon doesn't suggest the reader conta ct them in the way of ______.A．calling at it in person B．filling a form C．sending an email D．making a callBBody image is a person's opinions，thoughts，and feelings about his or her own body and physical appearanc e.Having a positive body image means feeling pretty satisfied with the way you look，appreciating your body for its capabilities and accepting its imp erfections.Body image is part of someone's total selfimage.So h ow a guy feels about his body can affect how he feels about hi mself.Recognize your strengths.Different physical qualities and body t ypes are good for different things—and sometimes the things you did well as a kid can change duri ng puberty (青春期)．What does your body do well？Maybe your speed，flexibility，strength，or coordination leads you to excel at a certain sport.Or perhaps you have some nonsports skills.Just exploring talents that you f eel good about can help your selfrespect and how you think of y ourself.A good body doesn't always translate into athletic success.Too often，the way guys see their body image is closely associated with th eir performance on a sports field or in the gym.But what if you d on't like team sports or you got cut from a team you really want ed to make?If you don't like team sports，find another form of physical activity that gets you going.This wil l help you stay in shape and help you to appreciate the skills you may not have realized you had in a team environment.If you like team sports but didn't make a particular team，use this as an opportunity to discover what you're good at，not to regret what you aren't best at.Look into starting a strength training program.Exercise can help you look good and feel good about yourself.Good builds don't j ust happen—they take hard work，regular workouts，and a healthy diet.There's no need to work out too much.A heal thy routine can be as simple as exercising 20 minutes to 1 hour three days a week.Another benefit of working out properly is tha t it can cheer up yourself—lifting weights can lift your spirits. Don't harm your body，respect it！To help improve your view of your body，take care of it.Treating yourself well over time results in a health ier，stronger body—and that contributes to a better body image.Practicing good livin g habits—regular showering; taking care of your teeth，hair，and skin; wearing clean clothes，etc.—also can help you build a positive body image.Be yourself.Your body is just one part of who you are— long wit h your talent for comedy，a quick wit，or all the other things that make you unique.Your talents，skills，and beliefs are just as much a part of you as the cover they co me in.So try not to let minor imperfections take over.5．The most important point of body image lies in it that it is clo sely associated with ______.A．one's physical appearanceB．one's athletic achievementsC．one's body abilitiesD．one's selfconfidence6．Which of the following statements is true?A．One's abilities developed in his childhood will stay on all on e's life.B．A good body is certain to lead to a good sport performance. C．A good body image results mainly from extreme workouts. D．Exploring nonsports talents matters equally as sports skills i n building selfrespect.7．It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A．lifting weights is the best sport in lifting one's spirits B．keeping good living habits does good to body image C．one should try not to let minor imperfection take over D．any activity out of team sports can lead to one's discovery o f one's potential skills8．This passage mainly deals with ______.A．what body image isB．why body image is importantC．how body image should be improvedD．what makes up body imageCA new generation addiction is quickly spreading all over the wor ld.Web holism，a twentieth century disease，affects people from different ages.They surf the net，use email and speak in chat rooms.They spend many hours on the computer，and it becomes a compulsive habit.They cannot stop，and it affects their lives.Ten years ago，no one thought that using computers could become compulsive behavior that could affect the social and physical life of comput er users.This obsessional behavior has affected teenagers and college students.They are likely to log on computers and spend long hours at different websites.They become hooked on computers and gradually their social a nd school life is affected by this situation.They spend all free tim e surfing and don't concentrate on homework，so this addiction influences their grades and success at school. Because they can find everything on the websites，they hang out there.Moreover，this addiction to websites influences their social life.They spend more time in front of computers than with their frien ds.The relation with their friends changes.The virtual life becom es more important than their real life.They have a new languag e that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural chang es in society.Because of the change in their behavior，they begin to keep themselves apart from the society and live w ith their virtual friends.They share their emotions and feelings wi th friends who they have never met in their life.Although they fe el confident on the computer，they are not confident with real live friends they have known all their life.It is a problem for the future.This addictive behavior is beginning to affect all the world.9．The author's attitude towards web holism is that of being ___ ___.A．optimistic B．disapprovingC．positive D．acceptable10．What is the main idea of the passage?A．The influence of web holism.B．The advantage of web holism.C．The popularity of web holism.D．The cause of web holism.11．What does the underlined word “obsessional” in the secon d paragraph most probably mean?A．Attractive.

He and his friend Steve Wozniak started Apple Computer—now just called Apple—in nineteen seventysix.They stayed at the company until ninete en eightyfive.That year，Steve Wozniak returned to college and Steve Jobs left in a disp ute(分歧)with the chief executive.Mr.Jobs then formed his own company，called NeXT Computer.He rejoined Apple in nineteen ninetysev en after it bought NeXT.He helped remake Apple from a busine ss that was in bad shape then to one of the most valuable comp anies in the world today.Steve Wozniak，speaking on CNN，remembered his longtime friend as a “great visionary and leade r”and a“marketing genius(天才)”．President Obama said in a statement，“By building one of the planet's most successful companies fro m his garage，he exemplified the spirit of American ingenuity.By making comp uters personal and putting the Internet in our pockets，he made the information revolution not only accessible，but intuitive and fun.”David Carroll is a professor at Parsons School of Design in Ne w York City.He says Steve Jobs not only revolutionized technol ogy，he also revolutionized American business.“The fact that he was able to redesign American commerce top to bottom and across is really stunning (令人惊奇的)．He probably will be considered an industrial giant on the s cale of Thomas Edison and Henry Ford，so one of the greats of all time.”David Carroll said.Steve Jobs stepped down as Apple's chief executive in August because of his health.He died a day after the company release d a new iPhone version that met with limited excitement.Apple's new chief，Tim Cook，will also have to deal with the new Kindle Fire tablet computer fr om .It costs less than half as much as an iPad but also does less.13．Why did people all over the world mourn Steve Jobs?

C．Jobs started his career in his family garage.D．Run unsuccessfully，Apple was sold to NeXT Computer.EIn a world where your iPhone comes with a woman who answer s your questions，reads your texts aloud，and gives directions，it may not seem like a big deal that computers are now writing s tories.In fact，it is.A software company has essentially taught computers to wr ite short news stories through artificial intelligence.If we can tea ch a computer the elements of story telling，why can't we teach our students the same thing?Remember the fiveparagraph essay？It's still around，still being promoted as if it were a literary form.In fact，it is an unnatural invention，one that must have been produced by academics who don't writ e much themselves.Writers engaged in the act of trying to say something on paper don't write artificial thesis statements (中心论点)．They needn't avoid using “I”，especially when telling about a personal experience or expressi ng an opinion.Yet many English teachers forbid the use of our f avorite pronoun in expository(说明文)writing.These are the folks who teach kids not to use the sa me word twice，so that if you've described a box as “small” in paragraph one，it must become “diminutive”if it shows up in paragraph two. Many teachers also disapprove of using dialogue in essays.Butwhy so？The problem with teaching writing as if it were disconnected fro m speech is that students start to see it simply as an unnatural activity they do in school.And yet we all tell stories and engage i n long “hesaid/shesaid” conversations.If we start from it with students，we can help them see the links that exist between speech and t ext.Students can learn a lot，for example，by being asked to tell a family story aloud and then to write it do wn.Daniel Pink，in his bestselling book，A Whole New Mind says that American society' s enthusiasm wi th leftbrain rational thinking is finally giving way to a more balan ced approach，one where we start to value and reward rightbrain thinkers—the artists，the designers，the entertainers—the people who know how to tell stories，the future belongs to the storytellers.So let's give kids an early start.Let's help them learn the craft of writing in a way that's natural，expressive，and human.It will be a lot of fun.And if we have to break up a fe w topic sentences along the way to allow a story to come into b eing，so be it.And that，dear reader，is my thesis statement.17. The writer believes that the fiveparagraph essay is ______.

A．calling at it in person B．filling a formC．sending an email D．making a callBBody image is a person's opinions，thoughts，and feelings about his or her own body and physical appearance.Having a positive body image means feeling pretty satisfied with the way you look，appreciating your body for its capabilities and accepting its imperfections.Body image is part of someone's total selfimage.So how a guy feels about his body can affect how he feels about him self.Recognize your strengths.Different physical qualities and body types are good for different thing s—and sometimes the things you did well as a kid can change during puberty (青春期)．What does your body do well？Maybe your speed，flexibility，strength，or coordination leads you to excel at a certain sport.Or perhaps you have some nonsports skills. Just exploring talents that you feel good about can help your selfrespect and how you think of y ourself.A good body doesn't always translate into athletic success.Too often，the way guys see their body image is closely associated with their performance on a sports fieldor in the gym.But what if you don't like team sports or you got cut from a team you really wante d to make?If you don't like team sports，find another form of physical activity that gets you going.This will help you stay in shape and hel p you to appreciate the skills you may not have realized you had in a team environment.If you like team sports but didn't make a particular team，use this as an opportunity to discover what you're good at，not to regret what you aren't best at.Look into starting a strength training program.Exercise can help you look good and feel good ab out yourself.Good builds don't just happen—they take hard work，regular workouts，and a healthy diet.There's no need to work out too much.A healthy routine can be as simple as exercising 20 minutes to 1 hour three days a week.Another benefit of working out properly is tha t it can cheer up yourself—lifting weights can lift your spirits.Don't harm your body，respect it！To help improve your view of your body，take care of it.Treating yourself well over time results in a healthier，stronger body—and that contributes to a better body image.Practicing good living habits—regular showering; taking care of your teeth，hair，and skin; wearing clean clothes，etc.—also can help you build a positive body image.Be yourself.Your body is just one part of who you are— long with your talent for comedy，a quick wit，or all the other things that make you unique.Your talents，skills，and beliefs are just as much a part of you as the cover they come in.So try not to let minor impe rfections take over.5．The most important point of body image lies in it that it is closely associated with ______. A．one's physical appearance B．one's athletic achievementsC．one's body abilities D．one's selfconfidence6．Which of the following statements is true?A．One's abilities developed in his childhood will stay on all one's life.B．A good body is certain to lead to a good sport performance.C．A good body image results mainly from extreme workouts.D．Exploring nonsports talents matters equally as sports skills in building selfrespect.7．It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A．lifting weights is the best sport in lifting one's spiritsB．keeping good living habits does good to body imageC．one should try not to let minor imperfection take overD．any activity out of team sports can lead to one's discovery of one's potential skills8．This passage mainly deals with ______.A．what body image isB．why body image is importantC．how body image should be improvedD．what makes up body imageCA new generation addiction is quickly spreading all over the world.Web holism，a twentieth century disease，affects people from different ages.They surf the net，use email and speak in chat rooms.They spend many hours on the computer，and it becomes a compulsive habit.They cannot stop，and it affects their lives.Ten years ago，no one thought that using computers could become compulsive behavior that could affect the s ocial and physical life of computer users.This obsessional behavior has affected teenagers and college students.They are likely to log on computers and spend long hours at different websites. They become hooked on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected by this situation.They spend all free time surfing and don't concentrate on homework，so this addiction influences their grades and success at school.Because they can find everythin g on the websites，they hang out there.Moreover，this addiction to websites influences their social life.They spend more time in front of computers than with their friends.The relation with their friends changes.The virtual life becomes more important than their real life.They have a new language that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society.Because of the change in their behavior，they begin to keep themselves apart from the society and live with their virtual friends.They shar e their emotions and feelings with friends who they have never met in their life.Although they fe el confident on the computer，they are not confident with real live friends they have known all their life.It is a problem for the fu ture.This addictive behavior is beginning to affect all the world.9．The author's attitude towards web holism is that of being ______.A．optimistic B．disapprovingC．positive D．acceptable10．What is the main idea of the passage?A．The influence of web holism.B．The advantage of web holism.C．The popularity of web holism.D．The cause of web holism.11．What does the underlined word “obsessional” in the second paragraph most probably mea n?A．Attractive.

高中英语真题:2013年高考第二轮复习英语湖北版AMore than half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealt h to their children, a new survey showed last Tuesday.The survey, published by the Bank of America, studied the rich with $ 3 million or more in assets. It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have welldeveloped plans to preserve and p ass on their assets to their children”．The majority of the 457 people surveyed are selfmade, firstgen eration rich.Fiftytwo percent of parents have chosen not to tell t heir children just how wealthy they are, and 15 percent have giv en away nothing about the family wealth.One in three parents s aid they had never thought to do it.They are worried that their children would become lazy, spend money freely, make bad decisions and even become a target fo r gold diggers.Only 34 percent strongly agreed that their children would be abl e to handle any inheritance (遗产) they plan to leave them.“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next genera tion，” said Sallie Krawcheck, president of the Global Wealth a nd Investment Management of the Bank of America.“Our resear ch, however, uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”The trend is led by the world's richest man Bill Gates, who prom ised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the ch arity started by him and his wife, the Bill and Melinda Gates Fou ndation (基金会), and not to his children.“We want to give it back to society in the way that it will have th e most positive impact，” he said.Of his plans for his children, Gates said: “I will give the kids so me money but not a meaningful percentage... they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.”1．We can learn from the passage that ______.A．rich parents may not know how to manage their inheritance B．rich parents don't equal rich kids, at least in the US C．American children don't get to inherit their parents' wealth D．poor children don't expect themselves to be as rich as their parents2．According to the survey，most rich Americans ______. A．think they owe their children nothingB．think it best to give their money back to societyC．doubt their children's ability to handle wealthD．are confident of their children's ability to handle wealth 3．The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refers to ______. A．responsible childrenB．Bill Gates and his wifeC．firstgeneration richD．rich parents4．From the last Paragraph，we can see that Bill Gates wants to show ______.A．the trend of leaving no inheritance to childrenB．the positive impact of charity on societyC．the way of giving back to societyD．the importance of independence for childrenBIn the past year, the number of parenting contracts—statements signed by parents agreeing to bring their child to sc hool—has gone up by 41% to 6,861. The number of courtissued punis hment notices went up by 12% to 7,793 last year.The Department for Children, Schools and Families said that part of the rise was due to a ban on parents taking their child out o f school during term time to go on holiday. The Labour governm ent has a target to cut truancy (逃学) by a third, but the current rate of unauthorised absence in E ngland is a third higher than in 2001.The government has introduced tough new permission to force parents to deal with their child's truancy.Parents can be fined, a sked to sign contracts, or ordered to make their child go to scho ol. Finally they can be sent to prison. The first parent to be put i n prison was Patricia Amos, from Banbury, Oxfordshire, in 2006 . Separate figures from the Ministry of Justice today show that 1 33 parents were put in prison between 2004 and 2011 for failing to prevent their child's truancy.Children's Minister Delyth Morgan said: “It's important that we b ack schools and local authorities in using these powers to deal with problem pupils and bad behaviour.They rightly make paren ts take responsibility for their children.These latest figures show that schools and local authorities continue to make good use of these measures.”David Laws, the Liberal Democrat education spokesman，said: “While parents need to take responsibility for their children 's behaviour and have the duty to ensure they attend school, tru ancy rates across the country remain sky high.What is needed is a more effective local approach involving parents，schools and the police. Extra money to cut class sizes and prov ide more onetoone support will enable teachers to work with ind ividual children and make sure that they are occupied in the cla s sroom.”5．Parenting contracts are signed to ______.A．remind parents to help their child with his homework B．make parents accompany their child to schoolC．keep children safe on the way to schoolD．ensure children attend school6．The worst punishment parents can be faced with is ______. A．to be finedB．to be put into prisonC．to sign a contractD．to lose the right to raise children7．The underlined word “back” in Paragraph 4 probably means “______”．A．adjust B．limitC．oppose D．support8．We know from the passage that ______.A．the government's approach has had little effect on children'struancyB．the government should take tougher measures against pare ntsC．the number of parents sent to prison has reduced D．schools and local authorities misuse the measuresCWhen Allison Winn was eight and her family adopted a dog na med Coco, they had no idea how much the little creature would change her life. “Coco helped me feel better, ”says Allison, w ho was recovering from 14 months of treatment for a brain can cer at the time.“She would cuddle up (偎依) to me when I didn't want to play.” Allison loved Coco so muc h that she told her parents she wanted to help other sick kids fin d the same kind of comfort.She started with small business, raising money by selling lemon ade and homemade dog biscuits in front of her house.Her first c ustomer was a mailman.By the end of that summer, she had rai sed nearly $ 1,000, enough to adopt and train two dogs and giv e them to children with cancer.Now, a little more than two years later, some groups gather to make dog treats for Allison's cause.Her organization, the Stink Bug Project, named after a picture s he drew in memory of the end of her treatment, is run and man aged in partnership with the Morgan Adams Foundation.Stink B ug helps families adopt pets from the Trained K9 Companion Pr ogram, where the rescued dogs are taught commands.Allis on's mother, Dianna Litvak, who helps run Stink Bug, hopes to extend the petadoption program statewide and continue donatin g some of the money to help fund children's cancer research.“Allison has figured out how to help—in a way that no one else has，” Litvak says.“We involve her yo unger sister, Emily, her friends, the adopting families, and some others.It took the love of a little girl to wrap all that together into one amazing package.”Go to to donate or to buy Allison's dog biscu its.9．At the beginning, Allison's family ______.A．wanted other sick children to get the same comfortB．didn't know the sufferings of fighting a cancerC．thought a dog's company would harm her healthD．didn't expect a dog could change her so much10．The name of Allison's organization, the Stink Bug Project，is from ______.A．one of her drawings B．her dogC．her homemade biscuits D．her friend 11．According to Paragraph 4, Allison's mother feels ______. A．calm B．worried C．embarrassed D．proud 12．What's the passage mainly about?A．Helping to make dog treats.B．Adopting a dog for your child.C．Giving dogs and love to kids with cancer.D．Raising money to train pets.DA yoga master made a shocking statement that Abraham Lincol n had been a Himalayan yogi in a past life.Lincoln delivered a p roclamation setting up Thanksgiving as an American holiday in 1863.Research throws light on a possible Hindu (印度的) origin for the American celebration of Thanksgiving.“The holiday of Thanksgiving has a Hindu origin，” says Richar d Salva, author of a book on the reincarnation (转世)of Abraham Lincoln entitled Soul Journey: From Lincoln to Li ndbergh which is based on a statement by the great master of yoga, Paramhamsa Yogananda，who declared that Abraham Lincoln had been a Himalayan yogi in a past life, and that he was reborn as the famous pilot, Charl es Lindbergh.“During my search for signs of a pastlife yoga practice，” Salva said, “I noticed that President Lincoln repeatedly chose Thursda ys] as national days of prayer, fasting (禁食), and thanksgiving.This was interesting, because Thursday i s considered a holy day— a day for prayer, fasting, and spiritual reflection—among Hindus, who call it ‘guru day]’．”“Lincoln also set aside time on Thursdays to grieve for his son, Willie, who died in Washington.Clearly, Thursdays had a spiritu al significance in Lincoln's mind.”In his book, Richard Salva presents more than 500 connections between Lincoln, Lindbergh, and the ancient spiritual science o f yoga.The connections run through every aspect of the human condition and provide convincing evidence that Lincoln had had a Hindu past life.More than one out of every five Americans today believes in rei ncarnation—yet few are aware of how pastlife patterns affect them.Soul Jour ney tries to fill this gap, by offering a substitute experience of rei ncarnation.Through clear and persuasive similarities between the lives of Lincoln and Lindbergh, the book discovers how the h idden laws of fate and reincarnation impact the events of his or her daily life.It addresses other issues, such as the secret spirit ual history of America's greatest president, including his past lif e as a Himalayan yogi; the hidden clues that reveal past lives; t he greatness he achieved; and the spiritual principles behind th e yoga postures that millions now practice.13．Based on Richard Salva's view，______.A．Hindus started the holiday of ThanksgivingB．the Americans copied Thanksgiving from Hindus C．Thanksgiving had Hindus rootsD．Charles Lindbergh had been a Himalayan yogi14．We can draw a conclusion from the passage that ______. A．in India Thursday is a religious dayB．in India all the prayers are done on Thursday C．Abraham Lincoln was once a famous pilot D．Paramhamsa Yogananda once taught Lincoln yoga15．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ______. A．the book discovers the laws of fate and reincarnation B．yoga is closely connected with religionC．the book gives a scientific description of Lincoln's spiritual lifeD．Lincoln and Lindbergh must have influenced each other a lo t16．When it came to the comparison between Lincoln and Lind bergh, the author held a ______ attitude.A．neutral B．doubtfulC．negative D．positiveEIn offering Michael Jackson ticket holders the choice to take a r efund or receive their unusable tickets as souvenirs, AEG have introduced music fans to one of the most unmanageable proble ms in the mathematical sciences. If nearly everybody takes the refund then the tickets, designed by the King of Pop himself, wil l become collectors' items and worth a fortune. However, if all 7 50,000 fans take their tickets then they will all hold worthless bit s of fancy paper.The choice facing fans is similar to the El Farol bar problem, wh ich has been the subject of hundreds of academic papers and i nspired a whole field: minority game theory. That is, if you reas on that every Michael Jackson fan will take a refund then you s hould take the ticket, but they will reason in the same way and t here will be a flood of souvenirs, so you should ask for your money back, but then...So, with the benefit of the hundreds of academic papers from s cientists around the world, what should a Times reader who hol ds a ticket do? The research tells us that, if you assume everyb ody else will use the same strategy as you, then the best you c an do is to throw a dice (骰子): deciding whether or not to keep the ticket according to a pr obability determined by demand for tickets and price. However, working out the probability is tough and most fans, without the b enefit of minority game theory, won't be tossing a dice.There is one huge factor in the Michael Jackson problem which isn't in the standard El Fatol bar problem. Hype (炒作). If the owners of the El Farol bar distributed fliers (传单) announcing it was going to be quiet next week, then it would be a safe bet to stay at home with a glass of wine. So my advic e would be to read the newspapers and decide what to do on th e basis of the experts' advice. If all the articles you read say the tickets will be collectors' items then ask for a refund, and if they all accuse AEG of cheating crazy fans then take the ticket. It w as, after all, designed by Michael Jackson.17．In the Para. 1, the underlined part “the King of Pop” refers t o ______.A．El Farol B．Michael JacksonC．A ticket holderD．A souvenir keeper18．The burning problem Michael Jackson ticket holders have t o deal with is ______.A．what advice to takeB．how to get their money backC．how to deal with the ticketsD．how to make a fortune19．It isn't said but implied that “minority game theory” is a theo ry about ______.A．people's reasoningB．Jackson's strategyC．experts' advice D．minority's bet 20．What the writer advises the ticket holders to do is ______.

Finally they can be sent to prison. The first parent to be put in prison was Patricia Amos, fro m Banbury, Oxfordshire, in 2006. Separate figures from the Ministry of Justice today show that 133 parents were put in prison between 2004 and 2011 for failing to prevent their child's truancy .Children's Minister Delyth Morgan said: “It's important that we back schools and local authorities in using these powers to deal with problem pupils and bad behaviour.They rightly make parents take responsibility for their children.These latest figures show that schools and local authorities continue to make good use of these measures.”David Laws, the Liberal Democrat education spokesman，said: “While parents need to take responsibility for their children's behaviour and have the duty t o ensure they attend school, truancy rates across the country remain sky high.What is needed i s a more effective local approach involving parents，schools and the police. Extra money to cut class sizes and provide more onetoone support will enable teachers to work with individual children and make sure that they are occupied in the cla ssroom.”5．Parenting contracts are signed to ______.A．remind parents to help their child with his homeworkB．make parents accompany their child to schoolC．keep children safe on the way to schoolD．ensure children attend school6．The worst punishment parents can be faced with is ______.A．to be finedB．to be put into prisonC．to sign a contractD．to lose the right to raise children7．The underlined word “back” in Paragraph 4 probably means “______”．A．adjust B．limitC．oppose D．support8．We know from the passage that ______.A．the government's approach has had little effect on children's truancyB．the government should take tougher measures against parentsC．the number of parents sent to prison has reducedD．schools and local authorities misuse the measuresCWhen Allison Winn was eight and her family adopted a dog named Coco, they had no idea howmuch the little creature would change her life. “Coco helped me feel better, ”says Allison, who was recovering from 14 months of treatment for a brain cancer at the time.“She would cuddle u p (偎依) to me when I didn't want to play.” Allison loved Coco so much that she told her parents she wanted to help other sick kids find the same kind of comfort.She started with small business, raising money by selling lemonade and homemade dog biscuit s in front of her house.Her first customer was a mailman.By the end of that summer, she had rai sed nearly $ 1,000, enough to adopt and train two dogs and give them to children with cancer.N ow, a little more than two years later, some groups gather to make dog treats for Allison's cause .Her organization, the Stink Bug Project, named after a picture she drew in memory of the end of her treatment, is run and managed in partnership with the Morgan Adams Foundation.Stink Bu g helps families adopt pets from the Trained K9 Companion Program, where the rescued dog s are taught commands.Allison's mother, Dianna Litvak, who helps run Stink Bug, hopes to ext end the petadoption program statewide and continue donating some of the money to help fund children's cancer research.“Allison has figured out how to help—in a way that no one else has，” Litvak says.“We involve her younger sister, Emily, her friends, t he adopting families, and some others.It took the love of a little girl to wrap all that together into one amazing package.”Go to to donate or to buy Allison's dog biscuits.9．At the beginning, Allison's family ______.A．wanted other sick children to get the same comfortB．didn't know the sufferings of fighting a cancerC．thought a dog's company would harm her healthD．didn't expect a dog could change her so much10．The name of Allison's organization, the Stink Bug Project，is from ______.A．one of her drawings B．her dogC．her homemade biscuits D．her friend11．According to Paragraph 4, Allison's mother feels ______.A．calm B．worriedC．embarrassed D．proud12．What's the passage mainly about?A．Helping to make dog treats.B．Adopting a dog for your child.C．Giving dogs and love to kids with cancer.D．Raising money to train pets.DA yoga master made a shocking statement that Abraham Lincoln had been a Himalayan yogi in a past life.Lincoln delivered a proclamation setting up Thanksgiving as an American holiday in 1 863.Research throws light on a possible Hindu (印度的) origin for the American celebration of Thanksgiving.“The holiday of Thanksgiving has a Hindu origin，” says Richard Salva, author of a book on the reincarnation (转世)of Abraham Lincoln entitled Soul Journey: From Lincoln to Lindbergh which is based on a sta tement by the great master of yoga, Paramhamsa Yogananda，who declared that Abraham Lincoln had been a Himalayan yogi in a past life, and that he was r eborn as the famous pilot, Charles Lindbergh.“During my search for signs of a pastlife yoga practice，” Salva said, “I noticed that President Li ncoln repeatedly chose Thursdays] as national days of prayer, fasting (禁食), and thanksgiving.This was interesting, because Thursday is considered a holy day— a day for prayer, fasting, and spiritual reflection—among Hindus, who call it ‘guru day]’．”“Lincoln also set aside time on Thursdays to grieve for his son, Willie, who died in Washington. Clearly, Thursdays had a spiritual significance in Lincoln's mind.”In his book, Richard Salva presents more than 500 connections between Lincoln, Lindbergh, an d the ancient spiritual science of yoga.The connections run through every aspect of the human condition and provide convincing evidence that Lincoln had had a Hindu past life.More than one out of every five Americans today believes in reincarnation—yet few are aware of how pastlife patterns affect them.Soul Journey tries to fill this gap, by offeri ng a substitute experience of reincarnation.Through clear and persuasive similarities between t he lives of Lincoln and Lindbergh, the book discovers how the hidden laws of fate and reincarna tion impact the events of his or her daily life.It addresses other issues, such as the secret spiritu al history of America's greatest president, including his past life as a Himalayan yogi; the hidden clues that reveal past lives; the greatness he achieved; and the spiritual principles behind the y oga postures that millions now practice.13．Based on Richard Salva's view，______.A．Hindus started the holiday of ThanksgivingB．the Americans copied Thanksgiving from HindusC．Thanksgiving had Hindus rootsD．Charles Lindbergh had been a Himalayan yogi14．We can draw a conclusion from the passage that ______.A．in India Thursday is a religious dayB．in India all the prayers are done on ThursdayC．Abraham Lincoln was once a famous pilotD．Paramhamsa Yogananda once taught Lincoln yoga15．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ______.A．the book discovers the laws of fate and reincarnationB．yoga is closely connected with religionC．the book gives a scientific description of Lincoln's spiritual lifeD．Lincoln and Lindbergh must have influenced each other a lot16．When it came to the comparison between Lincoln and Lindbergh, the author held a ______ attitude.A．neutral B．doubtfulC．negative D．positiveEIn offering Michael Jackson ticket holders the choice to take a refund or receive their unusable ti ckets as souvenirs, AEG have introduced music fans to one of the most unmanageable proble ms in the mathematical sciences. If nearly everybody takes the refund then the tickets, designe d by the King of Pop himself, will become collectors' items and worth a fortune. However, if all 7 50,000 fans take their tickets then they will all hold worthless bits of fancy paper.The choice facing fans is similar to the El Farol bar problem, which has been the subject of hun dreds of academic papers and inspired a whole field: minority game theory. That is, if you reaso n that every Michael Jackson fan will take a refund then you should take the ticket, but they will reason in the same way and there will be a flood of souvenirs, so you should ask for your mone y back, but then...So, with the benefit of the hundreds of academic papers from scientists around the world, what should a Times reader who holds a ticket do? The research tells us that, if you assume everybo dy else will use the same strategy as you, then the best you can do is to throw a dice (骰子): deciding whether or not to keep the ticket according to a probability determined by demand for tickets and price. However, working out the probability is tough and most fans, without the b enefit of minority game theory, won't be tossing a dice.There is one huge factor in the Michael Jackson problem which isn't in the standard El Fatol bar problem. Hype (炒作). If the owners of the El Farol bar distributed fliers (传单) announcing it was going to be quiet next week, then it would be a safe bet to stay at home w ith a glass of wine. So my advice would be to read the newspapers and decide what to do on th e basis of the experts' advice. If all the articles you read say the tickets will be collectors' items t hen ask for a refund, and if they all accuse AEG of cheating crazy fans then take the ticket. It w as, after all, designed by Michael Jackson.17．In the Para. 1, the underlined part “th e King of Pop” refers to ______.A．El Farol B．Michael JacksonC．A ticket holder D．A souvenir keeper18．The burning problem Michael Jackson ticket holders have to deal with is ______.A．what advice to take B．how to get their money backC．how to deal with the tickets D．how to make a fortune19．It isn't said but implied that “minority game theory” is a theory about ______.A．people's reasoning B．Jackson's strategyC．experts' advice D．minority's bet20．What the writer advises the ticket holders to do is ______.A．to throw a dice B．to follow the expertsC．to read the newspaper D．to take the ticket。
