There I was,walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at thetheatre. With opening night only a week ago, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers(抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck(垃圾车)pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amus ed look in his eye. “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get muchsleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyme nt of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.29. How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A. Cold and sickB. Fortunate and helpfulC. Satisfied and cheerfulD. Disappointed and helpless30. On her way home the writer _________.A. lost her wallet unknowinglyB. was stopped by a garbage truck driverC. was robbed of her wallet by an armed manD. found some homeless people following her31.In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A. Someone offered to take her back home.B. A red-haired man came to see her.C. She heard someone call her nameD. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.32. From the text, we can infer(推测) that the writer _________.A. would stop working at nightB. would stay on in San FranciscoC. would make friends with cleanersD. would give up her job at the bank.4.According to most people, after a long period of studying or working, we need to have a rest to refresh ourselves. However, that may not be the case. According to a recent report, you don’t need the break as much as you may think that makes you feel less tired.Scientists have long assumed that willpower(意志力)is a limited resource, which is why you feel the need to have a rest, have a snack and come back a task when you’re feeling better. They argued that the only way to restore willpower was by rest, food or entertainment.But psychologists have challenged this theory, saying weak willpower is all in your head. They found that people’s beliefs in willpower determine how long and how well they’ll be able to work on a tough mental exercise.“If you think of willpower as something that is not easily used up, you can go on and on.” Said Prof. Veronika JobThe researchers designed four experiments to test students’ beliefs in willpower. After a tiring task, those, who believed or were led to believe that willpower is a limited resource, performed worse on standard concentration tests than those who thought of willpower as something they had more control over. They also found that leading up to final exam week, students who believed the limited resource theory ate junk food 24 percent more often than those who believed they had more control in resisting temptation(诱惑).Mr. Job said. “The theory t hat willpower is a limited resource is interesting. A belief in willpower as a non-limited resource makes people stronger in their ability to work through challenges.”The findings could help people who are battling temptation. Willpower isn’t driven b y a biologically based process as much as we used think. The belief in it is what influences your behavior.33. The underlined word “restore” in Paragraph 2 probably means______.A. to make something return to its previous situation or conditionB. to put things in a certain place.C. to give back to someone something that was lost or taken from themD. to repair an old building, piece of furniture, or painting and so on.34. Which of the following best helps the students to prepare better fortheir exams?A. Push themselves even if they want to take a break.B. Tell themselves that willpower is not limitedC. Don’t eat fast food while studying.D. Stay in a comfortable and quiet place.35. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Willpower doesn’t last long.B. How to build strong willpower.C. The great influence of willpower.D. A new theory about willpower.二、未分类(共2题)1.Avoid Internet Addiction(上瘾)____36____Many people suffer from addiction to the Internet and have a hard time paying attention to the important things around them.

【广东省广东实验中学】2017届高三10月月考英语试卷

广东省广东实验中学2017届高三10月月考英语试卷第Ⅰ卷(满分70分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节篇章阅读(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该题涂黑.AI am Peter Hades, a volunteer stem cell courier. Since March 2012, I’ve done 89 trips —of those, 51 have been abroad, I have 42 hours to carry stem cells(干细胞)in my little box because I’ve got two ice packs and that’s how long they last. In all, from the time the stem cells are harvested from a donor to the time they can be implanted in the patient, we’ve got 72 hours at most. So I am always conscious of time.I had one trip last year where I was caught by a hurricane in America. I picked up the stem cells in Providence, Rhode Island, and was meant to fly to Washington then back to London. But when I arrived at the check-in desk at Providence, the lady on the desk said: “Well, I’m really sorry, I’ve got some bad news for you —there are no flights from Washington.” So I took my box and put it on the desk and I said: “In this box are some stem cells that are urgently needed for a patient — please, please, you’ve got to get me back to the United Kingdom.” She just dropped everything. She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for me, re-routed(改道)me through Newark and got me back to the UK even earlier than originally scheduled.For this courier job, you’re consciously aware that in that box you’ve got something that is potentially going to save somebody’s life.1.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “courier” in Paragraph 1? ________A.providerB.collectorC.delivery manD.medical doctor2.Why does Peter have to complete his trip within 42 hours? ________A.The ice won’t last any longer.B.The donor can only wait for that long.C.The operation needs that much time.D.He cannot stay away from his job too long.3.Which fight did the woman put Peter on first? ________A.To Newark.B.To London.C.To Providence.D.To Washington.BA survey has shown that what you do on a plane can be determined by which nationality is listed on your passport.According to the results of an international passenger survey, Australians are the biggest drinkers on board with 36 percent choosing to down the hatch, compared to 35 percent of Americans and 33 percent of Brits.The Airline Passenger Experience Association(APEX)spoke to around 1 500 people, aged 18 and older, who have travelled by plane at least once during the last three months and were living in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, China, Singapore, Australia and Brazil.The results found Chinese travelers are most likely to nod off once the seat-belt sign switches off. They are also the first to take out their credit card for some in-flight shopping and the biggest fans of gaming. Americans on the other hand like to use their time in the air more productively—when not drinking—choosing to work while flying at 35 000 feet.Meanwhile, Brits and Germans are the best at making chat with random strangers—spending 50 percent more time than any other nationality. Comparatively, Brazilians conduct their conversations online via email, messaging apps or social media.Despite plane food having a bad reputation, seven out of ten interviewees said they were happy to eat up on the selection of in-flight snacks and meals. In-flight magazines were also popular with four out of five passengers.The international flyers did however express their desire for better in-flight entertainment. “The industry has greatly improved the comfort, entertainment and onboard service, and passengers are accepting those improvements”said Russell Lemieux, APEX executive director. “At the same time, passengers are demanding more from their air travel experiences which will drive more improvements touch ing all aspects of the journey.” he added.4.What can you probably see in the flight according to the passage? ________A.Brazilians choose to drink.B.Americans do in-flight shopping.C.Germans chat to kill the time.D.The Chinese switch off the seat-belt sign.5.When on board the plane, ________.A.passengers from one nation have little in commonB.most passengers like to read in-flight magazinesC.more than half of the passengers don’t enjoy plane foodD.most people tend to use in-flight time to have a good sleep6.What can we learn from the last paragraph? ________A.Flyers care little about entertainment.B.Flyers are not satisfied with the improvements.C.Flyers are expecting better flight experiences.D.Flyers have more and more demands from airlines.7.What’s the purpose of the passage? ________A.To entertain readers with interesting stories.B.To encourage people to behave well in public.C.To criticize impolite behaviors on the plane.D.To inform readers of the results of a survey.CNeed for closure is a psychological term that describes a person’s desire for a firm answer to a question. Our need for closure is our natural preference for definite answers over confusion and uncertainty. Every person has their own baseline level of need for closure. It likely evolved via natural selection.What I find really fascinating is how our need for closure is affected by the situation we’re in. Our need for closure rises when we have to act rather than just observe, and it matters much more when we’re rushed, or bored, or tired. Any stress can make our discomfort with uncertainty increase, and a high need for closure negatively influences some of our most important decisions: who we decide to trust, whether we admit we’re wrong and even how creative we are.In hiring, for instance, a high need for closure leads people to put far too much weight on their first impression. It’s called the Urgency Effect. In one experiment, psychologists tried to lower people’s need for closure by telling them, right before participants are about to make various judgments of a job candidate, that they’ll be responsible in some way for them, or that their judgments have serious consequences.In making any big decision, it’s not enough just to know that we should take our time. We all know that important decisions shouldn’t be rushed. The problem is that we don’t keep that advice in mind when it matters. So, one of the best solutions is to formalize the reminders. Before making important decisions, write down not just advantages and disadvantages but what the consequences could be. Also, think about how much pressure you’re under. If your need for closure is particularly high that day, it’s even more important to think twice.8.How does “need for closure” probably come into being? ________A.By accident.B.By nature.C.By acquiring.D.By imitating.9.It can be inferred that a high need for closure ________.A.brings about more stressB.leads to not so good decisionsC.causes discomfort and uncertaintyD.promotes one’s creativity10.In the experiment the psychologists reduced participants’ need for closure by telling them to ________.A.value their first impressionB.be responsible for their bossC.be cautious about their judgmentsD.pay little attention to the consequences11.What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows? ________A.More helpful solutions to high need for closure.B.Some serious consequences of making decisions.C.Other approaches to making important decisions.D.Another strategy to escape the pressures of modern life.DBad news sells. If it bleeds, it leads. No news is good news, and good news is no news. Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers. But now that information is being spread and monitored in different ways, researchers are discovering new rules. By tracking people’s e-mails and online posts, scientists have found that good news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories.“The ‘if it bleeds’ rule works for mass media,” says Jonah Berger, a scholar at the University of Pennsylvania. “They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling. But when you share a story with your friends, you care a lot more how they react. You don’t want them to think of you as a Debbie Downer.”Researchers analyzing word-of-mouth communication—e-mails, Web posts and reviews, face-to-face conversations—found that it tended to be more positive than negative, but that didn’t necessarily mean people preferred positive news. Was positive news shared more often simply because people experienced more good things than bad things? To test for that possibility, Dr. Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories: thousands of articles on The New York Times’website. He and a Penn colleague analyzed the “most e-mailed”list for six months. One of his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than non-science articles. He found that science amazed Times’ readers and made them want to share this positive feeling with others.Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny, or that inspired negative feelings like anger or anxiety, but not articles that left them merely sad. They needed to be aroused(激发)one way or the other, and they preferred good news to bad. The more positive an article, the more likely it was to be shared, as Dr. Berger explains in his new book, “Contagious: Why Things Catch On.”12.What do the classic rules mentioned in the text apply to? ________A.Private e-mails.B.Research papers.C.News reports.D.Daily conversations.13.What can we infer about people like Debbie Downer? ________A.They’re socially inactive.B.They’re good at telling stories.C.They’re careful with their words.D.They’re inconsiderate of others.14.Which tended to be the most e-mailed according to Dr. Berger’s research? ________A.Science articles.B.Sports news.C.Personal accounts.D.Financial reviews.15.What can be a suitable title for the text? ________A.Sad Stories Travel Far and WideB.Online News Attracts More PeopleC.Reading Habits Change with the TimesD.Good News Beats Bad on Social Networks第二节短文选句(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,选项中有两项为多余选项.A garden that’s just right for youHave you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you, where the atmosphere of the garden appeared to total more than the sum of its parts? 16 . But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.●17Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilizers.18 . However, there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.●Recall your childhood memoriesOur model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood.

The sound that any given word makes, or the sounds that come from specific groups of words used together, are what make poetry so unique as a form of writing. A typical story or report does not focus on the sounds that each _____34____ word makes when read. But poems generally contain few words, so it is important that each word plays a role in making an impact on the reader. Rhythm is the flow of sounds created by successive words in a poem. When you read a poem you can often hear this ____35____ pattern, or “beat,” i n the sounds. This is called meter.Some of the oldest and best-known poetry in the world came from Ancient Greece.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.AMen of HonorA knight was a mounted warrior of medieval Europe who served a king or other feudal superior, usually in return for land. Knighthood was taken quite seriously and had to be earned.At about the age of eight, a boy would begin training in preparation for knighthood. This young trainee, known as a page(男侍者), would train with mentors to learn about horses, armor, and weapons. Pages practiced fighting with a sword against a wooden stake and learned to skillfully use a bow and arrow. The lady of the castle taught a young page about manners and social graces, as well as how to sing, play instruments, and dance. A priest might give a page religious training and teach him to read and write.By the age of fourteen, the page would become a squire(护卫). A squire was responsible for dressing a knight for battles and tournaments and taking care of the knight's armor and weapons. He would even follow his master on the battlefield to protect him if the knight fell.A squire had to gain skill in using a lance, spear, or sword, so he would practice against a wooden dummy called a quintain(枪靶). The quintain and a shield were hung on a wooden pole, and when hit, the whole structure would spin. The squire would learn to ride up and hit the shield's center, but then quickly move out of the way without getting hit and knocked off his horse by the quintain.At about age twenty, a squire was finally prepared to be called a knight, which involved an extended ceremony. On the evening before becoming a knight, the squire confessed his sins to a priest, was given a symbolic bath, and then fasted in order to cleanse his soul. The squire would dress all in white and stay in a chapel all night praying and watching over hisweapons and armor.In the morning, the squire would dress in symbolically-colored clothing: red for his blood, white for purity, and brown for his return to the earth after death. At his induction ([in'dʌkʃən] 入会仪式), the knight swore a code of chivalry, which required him always to be brave, loyal, courteous, and to protect the defenseless. Knighthood was granted by the overlord with an accolade, during which the new knight was tapped on the shoulders or neck with the flat side of the sword.If this new knight ever broke his vows or acted dishonorably, he would be stripped of his knighthood in another ceremony, in which he was "buried." In the Middle Ages, a knight without honor was considered as good as dead.56.What were the responsibilities of a squire?A.Practicing fighting with a sword and using a bow and arrow skillfully.B.Looking after his own weapons and learning manners from the Lady of the castle.C.Confessing his sin and praying for his mentors.D.Dressing a knight for battles or competitions and protecting him.57.What does the underlined word “ chivalry” mean ?A.the noble spirits a knight possessesB.the tough task a knight has to finishC.the high goal a knight must achieveD.the military discipline a knight should obey58.If a knight were to betray the king, what do you think might happen?A. He would be sentenced to death.B. He would be robbed of his title.C. He would be forced to leave Court.D. His land would be returned to the King.59.Which of the following statements is right according to the passage?A. A knight had to be highly born.B. A knight had gone through different stages of training to become a KNIGHT.C. A knight was militarily skillful but not necessarily literate.D. Knighthood started in the Medieval Ages and existed only in England.BReading Your MindModern technology allows scientists to look inside a living human brain to see what is happening. These procedures are safe and painless. By understanding the normal brain activity, doctors and scientists are better able to assess the brain’s behavior during times of injury, disease, and mental illness.CT or CAT scans: Computed tomography (CT) or computerized axial tomography (CAT) shows images of the brain by passing multiple X-ray beams through the brain tissue. CT or CAT scans show a cross-section of the brain. These scans can be used to find brain tumors.MRI scans: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses powerful magnet to cause the atoms of the brain to shake. MRI sensors pick up the signals emitted ([i'mit] 发出) from the brain’s atoms and a computer interprets them as a picture. MRIs show more detail than CT or CAT scans can. They are especially useful in finding brain tumors that grow on the back of the brain, between the ears.PET scans:Positron emission tomography (PET) is different from other scans because it shows how the brain functions. After a person’s bloodstre am is injected with a small dose of glucose (['glu:kəus] 【生化】葡萄糖), which is what gives the brain energy, scanners around the head detect where the glucose moves. The PET scan shows which part of the brain use a lot of glucose, which are the more active parts. PET scans are helpful for diagnosing strokes, studying mental illness, and learning how the brain process language.A. CT / CA T and PETB. MRI and PETC. CT/CA T and MRID. CT and CA T62. If a person suffers from defect in speaking, which scan will a doctor be mostlikely to suggest?A. CT / CATB. MRIC. PETD. Any one of themCThe psychology of innovationWhy are so few companies truly innovative?Innovation is key to business survival, and companies put substantial resources into inspiring employees to develop new ideas. There are, nevertheless, people working in luxurious, state-of-the-art centers designed to stimulate innovation who find that their environment doesn’t make them feel at all creative. And there are those who don’t have a budget, or much space, but who innovate successfully.For Robert B. Cialdini, Professor of Psychology at Arizona State University, one reason that companies don’t succeed as often as they should is that innovation starts with recruitment. Research shows that the fit between an employee’s values and a company’s values makes a difference to what contribution they make and whether, two years after they join, they’re still at the company.One of the most famous photographs in the story of rock’n’roll emphasizes Cialdini’s views. The 1956 picture of singers Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis jamming at a piano in Sun Studios in Memphis tells a hidden story. Sun’s ‘million-dollar quartet’ could have been a quintet. Missing from the picture is Roy Orbison, a greater natural singer than Lewis, Perkins or Cash. Sam Phillips, who owned Sun, wanted to revolutionize popular music with songs that fused black and white music, and country and blues. Presley, Cash, Perkins and Lewis instinctively understood Phillips’s ambition and believed in it. Orbison wasn’t inspired by the goal, and only ever achieved one hit with the Sun label.Managing innovation is a delicate art. It’s easy for a company to be pulled in conflicting directions as the marketing, product development, and finance departments each get differentfeedback from different sets of people. And without a system which ensures collaborative exchanges within the company, it’s also easy for small ‘pockets of innovation’ to disappear. Innovation is a contact sport. You can’t brief people just by saying, ‘We’re going in this direction and I’m going to take you with me.’Cialdini believes that this ‘follow-the-leader syndrome’ is dangerous, not least because it encourages bosses to go it alone. ‘It’s been scientifically proven that three people will be better than one at solving problems, even if that one person is the smartest person in the field.’To prove his point, Cialdini cites an interview with molecular biologist James Watson. Watson, together with Francis Crick, discovered the structure of DNA, the genetic information carrier of all living organisms. ‘When asked how they had cracked the code ahead of an array of highly accomplished rival investigators, he said something that stunned me. He said he and Crick had succeeded because they were aware that they weren’t the most intelligent of the scientists pursuing the answer. The smartest scientist was called Rosalind Franklin who, Watson said, “was so intelligent she rarely sought advice”.’Writing, visualizing and prototyping can stimulate the flow of new ideas. Cialdini cites scores of research papers and historical events that prove that even something as simple as writing deepens every individual’s engagement in the project. It is, he says, the reason why all those competitions on breakfast cereal packets encouraged us to write in saying, in no more than 10 words: ‘I like Kellogg’s Corn Flakes because… .’ The very act of writing makes us more likely to believe it.Authority doesn’t have to inhibit innovation but it often does. Many theorist believe the ideal boss should lead from behind, taking pride in collective accomplishment and giving credit where it is due. Cialdini says: ‘Leaders should encourage everyone to contribute and simultaneously assure all concerned that every recommendation is important to making the right decision and will be given full attention.’ The frustrating thing about innovation is that there are many approaches, but no magic formula. However, a manager who wants to create a truly innovative culture can make their job a lot easier by recognizing these psychological realities.63. The example of the ‘million-dollar quartet’ underlines the writer’s point aboutA. recognizing talent.B. working as a team.C. having a shared objective.D. being an effective leader.64. James Watson suggests that he and Francis Crick won the race to discover theDNA code because theyA. were conscious of their own limitations.B. brought complementary skills to their partnership.C. were determined to outperform their brighter rivals.D. encouraged each other to realize their joint ambition.65. The writer mentions competitions on breakfast cereal packets as an example ofhow to______________________________________________________.A. inspire creative thinking.B. generate concise writing.C. promote loyalty to a group.D. strengthen commitment to an idea.66. In the last paragraph, the writer suggests that it is important for employees toA. be aware of their company’s goals.B. feel that their contributions are valued.C. have respect for their co-workers’ achievements.D. understand why certain management decisions are made.Section CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Many people go through life's usual phases of ups and downs, which are common and normal stages in life, but when your self-esteem is low, you may need to know how to boost your self-esteem, since it can lead to problems you may not have thought of.Self-esteem is the measurement or the value of how a person knows his worth and its effects are life-changing and dramatic, since it makes up a pers on’s attitude and outlook towards life. (67) ______________________ But when self-esteem is low, you can either sulk and be sad or be afraid to try out new things or take risks and chances with your love-life, career, relationships and self-improvement.Self-esteem plays a key role in the maturity of a person, especially when trying to get away from a dangerous situation, going through a series of trials in life. Our normal responses to these circumstances and situations are governed by how we value ourselves and how our decisions are dictated by how we value ourselves and how our decisions are dictated by these conditions.Faced with tough decisions in life, the more self-esteem one has, the better. It is for that person to make sound decisions, even in the face of peer pressure or stress at work and at home. Let us try to look into some of the common and best practices which have been tried and tested to help boost self-esteem.Always compliment yourself daily, especially by trying to look for specific tasks you did well for that day and congratulate yourself for it. (68) ____________________ List down all things you are good at doing and achieving, be it a talent, skill, sport or building up otherpeople.You can add more focus to these good points and fuel our passion to do better and make you not only understand yourself more, but also give you the true meaning and measurement of self-worth and this is how you see yourself as important.Appreciation of one’s physical appearance and bearing can also be your source of self-esteem, be it the size and shape of your body, your overall physical structure or unique features. Your body can be your source of pride and will help you understand how you would like others to see you, or work on your physical appearance to boost self-morale and satisfaction.Sometimes when you tend to see things in a different light or perspective from others, don’t focus too much on making sure that what you think will cause things to change. (69) _____________________________When you have good self-esteem you will realize that what you did was right and was made under your own food judgment, sound principles and concepts based on your personal outlook and attitude towards life.Do not let negative feedback affect you. Of course, one cannot help but feel bad about negative comments or reactions, but you have to consider that these are tests against your character and personality. (70) ________________________________ So try to look at yourself and see, and if you feel less important or are not satisfied with how you see and look at things, then think about ways on how to boost your self-esteem. You’ll thank yourself for it.第II 卷I.SummaryDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.1. One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.2. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”3. “You don't owe me anything,” she replied. “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” He said, “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but it also increased his faith in God and the human race. He was about to give up and quit before this point.4. Years later the young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists can be called in to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room.5. Dressed in his doctor's gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room and determined to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave special attention to her case.6. After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was positive that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words...“Paid in full with a glass of milk.(Signed)Dr. Howard KellyTears of joy flooded her eyes as she prayed silently:”Thank You, God. Your love has spread through human hearts and hands.”II.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1. 民众呼吁政府延长失业的救济。

河南省周口中英文学校2017届高三10月月考英语试题(含答案)
周口中英文学校2016-2017学年上期高三十月考试英语试题第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D中,选出最佳选项。
AThe life of an actor appears attractive and many young people dream about becoming one. But the truth is, it is very hard work. If you’re s uccessful, there are deadlines to be met, appointments to keep and the press to deal with. If you’re not successful, then life is extremely tough.I remember when I started out, I had to search the advertisement board at my drama school every day to look for acting jobs. Drama school was expensive and I needed extra cash to help pay the fees. I welcomed every small job. I played extras in many crowd scenes and became a confident participant in a lot of TV commercials for hair shampoo, soap and washing powder.I had been working for about two years before I got my lucky break. One day, as I was passing the drama school, I decided to go in to check the notice board. There was nothing on it and I was just leaving when the secretary came along the corridor with a piece of paper. She asked me how I was and I told her life was hard and work was difficult to find. The next moment, she put the paper in my hand and walked away. My hands were shaking as I unfolded the paper, full of expectation. To my surprise, it was an audition (试演) for a clown (小丑) for the Canadian circus. I couldn’t stop myself from laughing. I had expected an audition with a famous director for a new film!When I was at drama school, there had been a course in acrobatics (杂技) and clown tricks. I had gained top marks in this course for originality and daring. Later I went to the audition feeling very strange. This was not what I’d had in mind when I enrolled in drama school. To my surprise, the job as a clown turned out to be exactly what I wanted. I loved every moment of getting dressed up and putting on the make-up. I had the opportunity to travel the world and I was more than an actor, I was an entertainer as well. I had visited over 32 different countries and entertained millions of people.1. According to paragraph 3, the writer went into the drama school __________.A. to look for a jobB. to see the secretaryC. to collect a piece of paperD. to put a notice on the notice board2. Which of the following can best describe the author’s feeling when he unfolded the paper?A. Extremely frightened.B. Feeling anxious and excited.C. Very worried.D. Trembling with fear.3. From the whole passage, we can tell that the writer is ___________.A. sad that he was not a famous actorB. happy to travel the worldC. feeling very strange to be a clownD. very content with his lifeBEnough may never be enough. As human beings, it seems that once we attain what we think will make us whole, we grow bored quickly and need something new in order to feel satisfied. We are addicted to what we don’t have.You’d better sit down at this very moment and make a list of all the reasons why you’re fortunate and while you’re writing the list, you would want nothing more. You could get together with a group of people whom you care about and discuss ideas. You would feel comfortable with what you have and who you are at that moment or some hours later. The talking heads always tell you that you need to be rich and famous on your television, so your desire for more becomes unquenchable (难抑制的). You forget that you are enough. You find yourself making comparisons between your life and the life of people you assume who have figured it out, and all of your accomplishments are never enough to satisfy you.The issue with this “never enough” mentality is that we all have it to some degree. We fail to realize that even the people who have figured it out are on some level still as lost and broken as everyone else. Everyone is constantly looking for validation (确认) in the form of likes and comments to give meaning to our sense of self. We honestly believe that as long as we buy into the illusion (错觉) when we are happy, everything is going to be grea t, we won’t have to face reality.Reality is that we want all the material, social media fame, and worthless validation in order to feel accepted by others. The reason why all of those things bring only temporary satisfaction is that they aren’t the answe r. We all keep looking for other people to accept us in order to feel whole. But in fact, it is when we accept ourselves that we can feel really satisfied. We are in a universal competition for acceptance that no one wants a part of, but so few have the courage to stop competing. What will ever be enough?4. After writing down the reasons why you’re fortunate, you may think ___________.A. you are lucky enoughB. you need something newC. you will grow bored quicklyD. you should discuss ideas with others5. According to Paragraph 2, the people who have “figured it out” refer to those _______.A. who don’t dare to face the realityB. who intend to compare with othersC. who have achieved some kind of successD. who are unlikely to be accepted by others6. People can only get long term satisfaction if __________.A. they can achieve great successB. they believe in their own abilitiesC. they can accept themselves joyfullyD. they stop commenting on others’ behavior7. What’s the writer’s purpose of writi ng the passage?A. To warn people not to set long-term goals.B. To ask people to appreciate what they have.C. To teach people how to hold a positive attitude.D. To inform people of the importance of comparison.CMany businesses today use conferences as a means of discussing new plans of the company. As people are paying more attention to the environment and green problems, more businesses are looking for ways to reduce their negative effect on the environment. Many businesses do this by using Web conferencing.Web conferencing is a technology that allows people to communicate more effectively over the Internet. It’s an easy way of hosting and attending conferences without having to leave the office. Each of the people involved in a Web conference will be posted an invitation to the conference with the time and date of the Web conference on it. When the conference is ready to begin, all participants(参与者)must sit at their computers and they will be connected over the Internet.With Web conferencing all participants attend the conference from the comfort of their own desk. Obviously, in doing this no fuel is used in traveling to and from a conference, and less work time is taken up in attending a conference.Any material to be used during Web conferencing is simply e-mailed to all the participants before the conference. Participants can then either choose to print material or read it on screen. This not only saves paper but also greatly reduces mailing costs for the business.As a conference hall or busi ness center isn’t being used, it means that the only power that is used is the power used by the participants’ personal computers. Similarly conference organizers don’t have to arrange for food or overnight accommodation(住处)for participants of their conferences. All this means that less energy is used.Often in business some companies actively choose to do business with other companies that do many things to reduce their negative impact on the environment. And Web conferencing helps you show other businesses that you are willing to work hard for the green cause.So Web conferencing is much cheaper and greener and more people are willing to host and attend a Web conference.8. What is the passage mainly about?A. Green benefits of Web conferencing.B. Ways of protecting the environment.C. Ways of hosting a Web conference.D. Impact of Web conferencing on costs.9. According to Paragraph 1, many companies use Web conferencing because they.A. are interested in using any new technologyB. believe that Web conferencing is more convenientC. haven’t enough money to hold a traditional conferenceD. want to do something to protect the environment10. The participants of a Web conference.A. will be e-mailed an invitation before the conferenceB. are required to sit in an office togetherC. must have access to the InternetD. will receive many paper materials11. Which of the following words best describes the author’s opinion about a Web conference?A. Environment-friendly.B. Useless.C. Inconvenient.D. Money-consuming.DBabysitters are childcare professionals, who typically care for one family’s children for a few hours at a time. While it may not sound like an exciting job, these professionals are valued and trusted family employees, and as such have an enjoyable and well-paid job. Here are some of the top reasons to become a babysitter:-- A driver’s license is not required: While many babysitters are able to increase the fees they charge by driving school-age children to and from school, and to after-class activities, they do not need to be able to drive. The parents pick up the babysitter from her home (or another agreed upon location), and drop her off afterwards.-- Flexible hours: While some babysitters have set jobs, where they babysit for the same children each week at an appointed time, most take jobs as their schedule permits. If the children’s parents call to request a babysitter’s time on an evening and the babysitter is not available until later in the evening, often time, the parent will change their plan to suit her.-- Free time: While some babysitters will tell horror stories about how tired the children may make them during the time of babysitting, the truth is that most children who require babysitters are young and go to bed early. They also take afternoon naps. This means that while babysitting, babysitters have significant free time to watch television or read. Babysitters who are in high school, college or graduate school, enjoy this opportunity to study.-- It is fun: There are not many jobs that will pay you to play hide and go seek, do finger painting, or eat ice cream, but babysitters routinely get to do all that. They also have a built-in reason to watch Disney movies, play video games, blow bubbles, and read children books. Babysitting is a job for those who are young at heart, and are ready and willing to embrace that side of themselves while working.12. According to the passage, babysitters _____________.A. earn little money from the jobB. have to work long hoursC. have much time to do what they wantD. are usually tired and bored13. Which of the following statements is true?A. Babysitters usually have to change their plans to meet their employers’ needs.B. Babysitting can be a very tiring job because the children may be very naughty.C. While babysitting, one can do nothing else but take care of the children.D. babysitters can do a lot of interesting things with the children they take care of.14. The u nderlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 stands for _____________.A. the babysittersB. the childrenC. the parentsD. the stories15. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To compare babysitting with other jobs.B. To teach people how to be a good babysitter.C. To show some advantages of babysitting.D. To list some do’s and don’ts when babysitting.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。

But when I arrived at the check-in desk at Providence, th e lady on the desk said: “Well, I’m really sorry, I’ve got some bad news for you ---- there are no flights from Washington.” So I took my box and put it on the desk and I said: “In this box are some stem cells that are urgently needed for a patient ---- pl ease, please, you’ve got to get me back to the United Kingdom.” She just dropped everything. She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for me, re-routed (改道) me through Newark and got me back to the UK even earlier than originally scheduled.F or this courier job, you’re consciously aware that in that box you’ve got something that is potentially going to save somebody’s life.1.
