Dad was left alone.One day I read an article which said when given dogs, depressed patients would be better off. So I drove to the animal shelter that afternoon. As soon as I got there, a pointer’s eyes caught my attention. They watched me calmly.A staff member said: “He got here two weeks ago and we’ve heard nothing. His time is up tomorrow.”I turned to the man in horror. “You mean you’re going to kill him?”“Ma’am,” he said gently. “We don’t have room for every unclaimed dog.”The pointer’s calm brown eyes awaited my decision. “I’ll take him,” I said.I drove home with the dog on the front seat beside me. I was helping it out of the car when Dad walked onto the front porch. “Look what I got you!” I said excitedly.Dad wrinkled his face. “I don’t want it,” he muttered, turning back towards the house. Then, suddenly, the dog pulled free from my grasp. He sat down in front of my Dad.Dad’s anger melted, and soo n he was hugging the dog.This was the beginning of a warm friendship. Dad named the dog Cheyenne. Together they spent long hours walking down dusty lanes and relaxing on the banks of streams.Two days later, my shock and grief deepened when I discovered Cheyenne lying dead beside Dad’s bed.

In order to do it right, every bit of the mattress has to be tested slowly and deliberately.While Reuben will not reveal how he got into this profession, he will admit that it is more fun than being a carpenter, roofer, construction worker and railroad engineer---all jobs he has tried previous to finding his true profession!32.

AFor six hours we: shot through the landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending, Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three notebooks and was into the fourth, a beautiful leather notebook I’d bought in a market in Mozambique.Southern Africa was full of stories. And visions. We were almost drank on sensations. The roaring of the at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana. And then the other things: dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto living in one room, a kilometre from clean water.As we drove towards the setting sun, a quietness fell over us. The road was empty—we hadn’t seen another car for hours. And as I drove, something caught my eye, something moving next to me. I glanced in the mirror of the car; I glanced sideways to the right, and that was when I saw them. Next to us, by the side of the road, thirty, forty wild horses were racing the car, a cloud of dust rising behind them—brown, muscular horses almost close enough to touch them, to smell their hot breath. I didn’t know how long they had been there next to us.I shouted to Dan: “Look!”, but he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet. They raced the car fora few seconds, then disappeared far behind us, a memory of heroic forms in the red landscape. When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened.“Wild horses?” he said. “Why didn’t you wake me up?”“I tried. But they were gone after a few seconds.”“Are you sure you didn’t dream it?”“You were the one who was sleeping!”“Typical,” he said. “The best photos are the ones we never take.”We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.21. During their journey in Africa, the two travelers ________.A. made friends with local residentsB. recorded their experiences in different waysC. enjoyed the sunset in the Karoo desert most22. What does the phrase “heroic forms” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Wild horses.B. Racing ears.C. Eye-catching locals.D. Running dogs.23.

The next trip would be better.24. What’s the passage mainly about?A. How to view wildlife in Africa.B. Possible dangers of travelling in the desert.C. Tourist attractions in southern Africa.D. Running into wildlife in Africa.BSkiingDownhill and cross-country skiing are family favorites during the winter months. Some children start skiing as youngas age 2 or 3, but the best age is probably about 5, when kids are more coordinated (协调的)and less afraid of falling. Young downhill skiers can hit the bunny slopes or green circle trails but should have an adult with them. Ski lessons can help your child learn the ropes. It’s wise to wear a helmet in case of falls or collisions.SnowboardingAs with skiing, little ones can start snowboarding young,but few children try before age 5 or 6. Snowboarding is most popular among teens because they have the strength and skillsto stay uptight and try more tricks. Lessons and safety equipment, including a helmet, knee pads, wrist guards, andhip pads, are suggested because snowboarders of all ages have their share of falls.Snow Angels[]Soft snow? Cheek. Snow suit? Cheek. That’s all the gear kids of any age need to lie down and create a snow angel justlike they would do a jumping jack. Make this simple activity extra fun by using materials to decorate your angel, such as food coloring to draw on a face, and old clothes to dress it up. Why should snowmen have all the fun?Ice Skating[]25. Alice likes snow very much but hates danger, which or the following suits her?A. Skiing.B. Snowboarding.C. Snow Angels.D. Ice Skating.26. Which of the following seems to be a must in most snow-related activities?A. Knee padsB. Hip pads.C. Wrist guards.D. Helmet.27. From the above passage we can learn that ________.A. ice skating may be a bit difficult for beginnersB. being good at ice skating takes no timeC. ice skating is more difficult than speed skatingD. beginners of ice skating does not necessarily wear a helmetCFor most teachers, a day never seems long enough to get all the planning, teaching or paper correcting done. Parent volunteers, if available, can do a lot of help.A teacher who wants to use the service of volunteers successfully should give time to the planning of tasks. Make a list of possible tasks for the volunteer to do. The tasks can be kept in a notebook. Information such as class schedule, names of students and school rules could also be included in the notebook. When the volunteer arrives, the teacher may not immediately have an opportunity to explain tasks. The volunteer can then check the notebook and pick a job on his or her own decision.Meanwhile, parent volunteers do need to understand that any information about children is to remain confidential. They should be coached on appropriate methods in a school system. They especially need to be careful of what they say.28. The first two paragraphs imply that ________.A. teachers should ask parents for help in classB. parent volunteers are really needed in schoolC. parents are available to teachers ha most schoolsD. being a parent volunteer is popular in many schools29.

She now has the language skills of a five-year-old and happily tells long stories, using different tenses.So why is my child so precocious(超常)? Well, I believe her remarkable gift is down to my great friend and language expert, Nicola Lathey. When Minnie was just ten weeks old, Nicola came to meet her. Nico la said to me, “Minnie is very chatty. We’ve just been having a lovely long conversation.” Then she showed me how she was keeping eye contact and waiting for Minnie to make a noise. When Minnie paused, Nicola would utter something about the same length back to her, pause again, look at Minnie and wait for her to respond. She went back and forth in this way for about five minutes. Apparently, this is an early form of conversation.In fact, Nicola told me that Minnie would have been able to start talking with me like this from around four weeks. Not only that, but babies even start learning language in the Womb too. So, we should begin chatting to our baby, while looking into their eyes, as soon as they are born. The earlier we talk to them, the more in tune with our language they’ll be and the quicker they’ll learn it. The sooner youget started, the better.Researchers studied the impact of a child’s early environment(before they are two)on their language, and found that children whose parents talked to them a lot at home went on to achieve higher scores in tests of languages, reading and maths when they entered school. So by giving your child the gift of conversation, you really are giving them the best possible start in life.32. Why does the author mention her daughter Minnie in Para.1 ?A. To introduce the theme by an example.B. To show a very happy life with a daughter.C. To persuade people to protect children’s gifts.D. To talk about the development of children.33. According to Ms Nicola Lathey, ________.A. any child has their own advantagesB. Minnie is lucky to receive training on language skillsC. parents should spend more time with their kidsD. it’s better to start talking with children at an early age34. Which statement is NOT tree, according to the text?A. Parents can have a big impact on how children learn to talk.B. Giving children the gift of conversation will boost their brainpower for life.C. There’s no need to push children to learn languag es when they’re young.D. The better children are talking before two, the better they’ll do when starting school.35. Who would be most interested in the text?A. Parents to be.B. Parents with teenagers.C. Teachers at primary school.D. The young baby-sitters.第二节:补全短文(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。

And yes, it's good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it's smart to learn how to relate to the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.But really, there’s one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher.

The New York Times is popularCEngineering students are supposed to be examples of practicality and rationality(理性), but when it comes to my college education I am an idealist and a fool. In high school I wanted to be an electrical engineer and , of course, any reasonable student with my aims would have chosen a college with a large engineering department, many famous professors and lots of good labs and research equipment. But that’s not what I did.I chose to study engineering in a small liberal-arts(文科) university that doesn’t even offer a major in electrical engineering. Obviously, this was not a practical choice; I came here for more noble reasons. I wanted a broad education that would provide me with flexibility and a value system to guide me in my job. I wanted to open my eyes and expand my vision by communicating with people who weren’t studying science or engineering. My parents, teachers and other adults praised me for such a wise choice. The told me I was wise and grown-up beyond my 18 years, and I believed them.I headed off to the college and sure I was going to have an advantage over those students who went to big engineering “factories” where they didn’t care if you had values or were flexible. I was going to be a complete engineer: technical expert and excellent humanist all in one.Now I’m not so sure. Somewhere along the way my noble ideas crashed into reality, as all noble ideas finally do. After three years of struggling to balance math, physics and engineering courses with liberal-arts courses, I have learned there are reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile engineering with liberal-arts courses in college.The reality that has blocked my path to become the typical successful student is thatengin eering and the liberal arts simply don’t mix as easily as I supposed in high school. Individually they shape a person in very different ways. The struggle to reconcile the two fields of study is difficult.9. At present, the writer is studying_________.A. Engineering at a college with a large engineering department.B. Engineering in a small liberal-arts university.C. Noble ideas have nothing to do with reality.D. The writer considered his noble ideas as valuable as others.11. What problem has the writer found in his study at college?A. He can’t get used to the engineer factory.B. Math, physics and engineering courses are too difficult to learn.C. It’s hard to combine engineering with the literal arts.D. He has made no progress in the literal arts.12. How has the writer felt about his choice?A. He felt proud at the beginning but a bit doubtful at present.B. He has been feeling positive all the time.C. he has decided to give up.D. He shares the same opinion with his parents and teachers.DFund Tianhong Zenglibao has become the first fund in China to hit 100 billion yuan($ 16.30 billion) of sales thanks to its cooperation with Yu’ebao, Alibaba’s wealth management product.Alipay(支付宝), attached to the e-commerce giant Alibaba Group, announced in June it would offer its users the option to directly invest with the private Tianhong Fund using spare cash from Alipay accounts.

Profit purchasing investors tend to choose safe financial management t ools. The relatively stable yields of Yu’ebao is favored by most customers, the report said.Chinese e-commerence giant Alibaba allows consumers to invest their spare cash in the money market funds through its Alipay online payment service. The product, ca lled Yu’ebao, or “Leftovers Treasure,” has netted 130 billion yuan so far, making the fund’s management firm, Tianhong Fund, the country’s largest fund management company.Meanwhile, due to the cooperation with Alipay, the management scale of Tianhong monetary fund has doubled from 55.653 billion yuan at the end of September to over 100 billion yuan.

第Ⅰ卷第一部分: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 principles about applying for jobs have altered greatly lately. In the past, people preferred a hand-written application letter.However, nowadays it is becoming more and more common to apply for a job through the Internet.You can find information on the Internet about how to apply for jobs.Information can be found about how to fulfill your application letter, the clothes that you should wear and how to carry out the interview itself.The importance of body language is often mentioned,but doesn’t always get the attention it deserves.After all,before a word has even been spoken,your body language will have already given people their first impression of you.Additionally, your body language will also give out a lot more information.Based on your body language it can be seen if you are self-confident.It can also show if you are a busy or a quiet type and it helps give an impression of whether you are speaking truthfully or not.Body language can show how enthusiastic you are and if you are a nice person.someone who will take his work seriously, but also someone who has a sense of humor and can enjoy a joke from time to time.The members of the application committee will ask you questions,but your answers won’t only be oral.The committee will not only pay attention to what you say, but also to how you say it! Body language will determine first if it ‘clicks’,and sometimes all it takes is just a few seconds.Everybody uses body language,but it takes place mostly at a subconscious(下意识的) level.Using body language appropriately, you can definitely increase your chances of getting a job.21.What kind of people is the text mainly meant for?A. InterviewersB. Job-hunting peopleC. EmployersD. Lay-off workers22.We can learn from the first paragraph that_______.A.hand-written letters are not used in finding a jobB.the more expensive clothes interviewees wear, the betterC.body language is more important than spoken wordsD.Internet is of significance in applying for a jobing body language well in a job interview will probably _______.A.get rid of the interviewers’ prejudice B.determine what position one will get C.increase the possibility to get the wanted job D.help one remove nervousness24.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Those using body language are usually confident.B.Body language is often used on purpose in job hunting.C.Body language is a mirror to reflect one’s personality.D.People enjoying jokes are preferred in a job interview.BOne of our bigge st fears nowadays is that our kids might some day get lost in a “sea of technology” rather than experiencing the natural world. Fear-producing TV and computer games are leading to serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors, which will change the wild places of the world, its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on child’s play.Each of us has a place in nature we go sometimes, even if it was torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decline in park use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment(蚕食)?” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the woods.Without having a nature experience, kids can turn out just fine, but they are missing outa huge enrichment to their lives. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents—and they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature component and that play in nature fosters(培养)leadership by the smartest, not by the toughest, Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump of trees on the roadside can be the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that more.Kids are not to blame. They are over-protected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to time but repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite(仪式)of passage.Everyone, from developers, to schools and outdoorsy citizens, should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that strengthen love, respect and need for the landscapes. As parents, we should devote some of our energy to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.25. According to the passage, children without experiencing nature will______A.keep a high sense of wonderB.be over-protected by their parentsC.be less healthy both physically and mentallyD.change wild places and creatures for the better26.According to the author, childre n’s breaking an arm is_____A.the fault on the part of their parentsB.the natural experience in their growing upC.the result of their own carelessness in playD.the effect of their repetitive stress from computers27.In writing this passage, the author mainly intends to______A.blame children for getting lost in computer gamesB.encourage children to protect parks from encroachmentC.show his concern about children’s lack of experience in natureD.inspire children to keep the sense of wonder about things aroundCI am trying to muster (鼓起) the courage to toss_away my mobile phone to enjoy a more peaceful and ring-free life.Can you imagine not having your mobile phone? In our high-tech, in-a-hurry age, a cell-free life is a hard concept to swallow. Our mobile phones can now access the Internet, and many people feel the need to express their every thought on their blog pages. If I gave up my cell-phone, people would think I was mad.I wish I had the strength to toss away my technology. I have an office phone, a home phone, an e-mail and if people want to contact me, they can. If I'm out, people can leave a message. Do they really need to find me 24/7?However, I'm a bit like Frodo in the movie Lord of the Rings. The power of the ring is too strong and I can't let it go.Mobile phones have become necessary tools in our busy life. For most people, they hold all contacts and many of us don't write up address books any more. The latest phones carry our music, pictures, movies and everything else. We feel lost without this device and when we do misplace it, we feel cut off from our fellow."Where have you been?" said a friend, who saw me a week after I lost mycell-phone, "I tried calling you, but you disappeared. You disappeared off the face of the Earth." See, when you don't have a mobile phone, you don't exist.I'm not really going to toss my mobile phone away, in fact. We humans are such social animals and mobile phones serve us well. So in 2009, I've decided not to serve my mobile phone. Like all machines, I can always turn it off.28. What does the underlined phrase "toss away" mean?A. give awayB. get awayC. break awayD. throw away29. The writer mentions Frodo to________.A. show it is difficult to get rid of the mobile phoneB. show how much he likes FrodoC. suggest a cell-free life is what he wantsD. introduce a film character to us30. What do we know about mobile phones in the 4th paragraph?A. Mobile phones can do anything for us.B. Mobile phones have become very important in our life.C. We could not live without mobile phones.D. We would be cut off by our fellow without mobile phones.31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The writer is not really going to toss his mobile phone away.B. When you don't have a mobile phone, you don't exist.C. The writer decides not to serve his mobile phone.D. We humans can control ourselves and machines.DThe world is changing so fast that English, perhaps the most worldly of languages, is struggling to keep up.Learners in the future are likely to be much younger. Young children are often said to be better at language learning than older learners but they also have special challenges. Young children don’t usually have the kind of instrumental motivation and determination for learning English that older learners often have. English lessons must therefore be fun and rewarding.The reasons why people learn English are also changing. Globalization is bringing together more people than ever who speak different languages and who are turning to English as the means of communication. The English learners of the future may be less worried about sounding exactly like a native speaker and more concerned about how to use English effectively in cross-cultural communication. We may be hearing more non-native speakers in dialogues and a wider range of the “New Englishes” now used around the world.Technology will allow English to come to you, rather than you having to go to a special place to learn English.Learning English has always involved both pain and pleasure, private effort and social activity. Traditional learning provided take-it or leave-it mixes of these as well as of content but in future learners will be able to choose a plan which suits their cultural and psychological dispositions(性情), or their particular needs at that moment. They, rather than their teachers, will decide how, what and when they will learn.Above all, learning English is about communication and an important benefit of learning English is being able to exchange views and make friends with people all over the world. Despite the growing independence of learners, trusted institutions and brand names will remain important.32. Compared to older learners, young English learners .A. are more active in learningB. are more hard-working in learningC. have more difficulties in learningD. have less lasting determination in learning33. What can we learn about the future English language?A. British English will be more popular.B. American English will be more popular.C. Most people will speak standard English.D. Many different kinds of Englishes will appear.34. What can we learn from the passage?A. Future English lessons will be more interesting.B. Old people won’t have to learn English in the future.C. People will pay more attention to English pronunciation.D. Teach ers will play a more important role in one’s English learning.35. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Learning English means no pain in the future.B. English training schools will not be popular with young people in the future.C. English learners will become less independent in the future.D. More attention will be paid to personal needs in English learning in the future.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。

甘肃省局部普通中学2016高考英语新课标学能专业高效提分集训试题〔二十二〕注意:本试卷分第1卷〔选择题〕和第2卷〔非选择题〕两局部。
总分为120分。
考试时间100分钟。
第1卷第一局部:阅读理解( 共两节,总分为40分)第一节〔共15小题;每一小题2分,总分为30分〕阅读如下短文,从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C和D〕中,选出最优选项。
AThe Chinese word “Shanzhai〞 means a small mountain village, but now it becomes an accepted name for fakes (假货), after “Shanzhai Cell-phones〞 produced by small workshops in southern China became popular in the mainland market over the past two years.Besides “Shanzhai〞electronic products, there are “Shanzhai〞movies, “Shanzhai〞 stars and even a “Shanzhai〞 Spring Festival Gala (联欢晚会), a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year’s Eve.“Shanzhai〞 has become a culture of its own, meaning anything that imitates something famous.In Chongqing, “Sha nzhai〞version “Bird’s Nest〞and “Water Cube〞 woven by farmers with bamboo attract wide attention from tourists. Both are copies of the famous Olympic buildings in Beijing.A literature critic said that taking the “Shanzhai〞 Gala as an example, when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience, the“Shanzhai〞 version appears timely to attract people. “Although it is often connected with poor techniques and operation, ‘Shanzhai’ culture meets the psychological needs of common people and could be a comfort to their minds,〞 he said.To the mainstream (主流的) culture, the rise of “Shanzhai〞 culture is a challenge and a motivation (动力). People believe different kinds of cultures developing together is a perfect situation and it is for the public to choose.21. The Chinese word “Shanzhai〞 may have started with ______.A. Spring Festival GalaB. electronic productsC. fake cell-phonesD. Olympic buildings22. According to the passage, “Shanzhai〞 culture refers to ______.A. the action that a person imitates famous peopleB. products with poor techniques and qualityC. those similar names to famous brandsD. anything that imitates something famous23. We can infer that the mainstream culture ______.A. may develop faster because of the challenge of “Shanzhai〞 cultureB. is the challenge of “Shanzhai〞 cultureC. will be replaced by “Shanzhai〞 cultureD. is held back by “Shanzhai〞 cultureBWhen students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance, the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list. Music is nice, people seem to say, but not important. Too often it is viewed as mere entertainment, but certainly not an education priority〔优先〕. This view is shortsighted. In fact, music education is beneficial and important for all students.Music tells us who we are. Because music is an expression of the beings who create it, it reflects their thinking and values and the social environment it came from. Rock music represents a lifestyle just as surely as does a Schubert song. The jazz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions. Music expresses our character and values. It gives us identity as a society.Music provides a kind of perception〔感知〕that cannot be acquired any other way. Science can explain how the sun rises and sets. The arts explore the emotive meaning of the same phenomenon. We need every possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: No one way can get it all.The arts are forms of thoughts as powerful in what they communicate as mathematical and scientific symbols. They are ways we human bein gs “talk〞 to each other. They are the language of civilization through which we express our fears, our curiosities, our discoveries, our hopes. The arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others. When we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music, we take away from them the meanings that music expresses.Science and technology do not tell us what it means to be human. The arts do. Music is an important way we express human suffering, celebration, the meaning and value of peace and love.So music education is far more necessary than people seem to realize.24. According to Paragraph 1, students _______.A. disagree with their parents on educationB. regard music as a way of entertainmentC. view music as an overlooked subjectD. prefer the arts to science25. In Paragraph 2, the author uses jazz as an example to _______.A. compare it with rock musicB. introduce American musical traditionsC. show music identifies a societyD. prove music influences people’s lifestyles26. According to the passage, the arts and science _______.A .approach the world from different anglesB. explore different phenomena of the worldC. express people’s feelings in di fferent waysD .explain what it means to be human differently27. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Music is an effective communication tool.B. Music should be of top education priority.C. Music makes students more imaginativeD. Music education deserves more attention.CA new planet-hunting technique has detected the most earth-like planet yet around a star other than our sun, raising hopes of finding a space rock that might support life, astronomers (天文学家) reported recently.“This is an important discovery to answer the question ‘Are we alone?’〞 said Michael Turner of the National Science Foundation.“The team has discovered the most earth-like planet yet, and more importantly, has proved the power of a new technique that is sensitive (灵敏的) to detecting planets that are fit for people to live on,〞 Turner said in a statement.In the last decade, astronomers have detected more than 160 planets moving around stars outside our solar system. Most of these have been gas giant planets like Jupiter, which are unfit for life.But an international team has detected a cold planet about 5.5 times more massive than the earth — still small enough to be considered earth-like — moving around a star about 20,000 light years away, close to the center of the Milky Way.To find this new planet, the team used a technique called gravitational microlensing (引力微观透镜法). When a planet is circling the closest star, the planet’s gravity can add itsown signature to the light. This kind of light signature was observed on July 11 by a group of telescopes in a project known as OGLE, short for Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment.“The main advantage of microlensing is the signals for low-mass planets: They’re not weak signals. They’re j ust rare,〞 Bennett of the University of Notre Dame in Indiana said by telephone. “If there happens to be a straight line between a foreground star with its planet and the background source star, then you’re able to detect that planet.〞28. The underlined w ord “detected〞in Paragraph 1 probably means “_________〞.A. discoveredB. destroyedC. createdD. searched29. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to ____.A. prove that scientists have a lot of difficulties in doing scientific researchB. explain why this planet moves around a star like our sunC. teach the readers some basic knowledge about the universeD. tell people about a new technique that finds the most earth-like planet moving round anotherstar30. From the news report we can infer that _________.A. the planet is like the earth because it is close to the center of the Milky WayB. it is quite possible that life may exist on other planets in the universeC. people have no interest in finding a planet that might support lifeD. the question “Are we alone〞 is too difficult for scientists to answer31. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. The signals coming from low-mass planets are too weak to be noticed.B. Most of the discovered planets are not fit for people to live on.C. If a star with its planet happens to be in line with the source star, then the planet canbe found.D. The power of the new technique is proved by the discovery of the earth-like planet.DAll over the world, and for many different reasons, there are millions of people who rarely or never eat meat. These people are called vegetarians. To people who eat meat, being a vegetarian may seem like a very strange thing, diets for several different reasons.First, vegetarians have an enormous health advantage. One of the major health problems inmodern societies is not too much protein but too much fat, especially in the form of animal fats. Medical evidence suggests that animal fats, including butter, contribute to the development of cholesterol in the human body. High amount of cholesterol seem to be part of the cause of heart disease. Most vegetarians have low level of cholesterol. High amounts of animal fats also seem to lead to certain kinds of cancer, and vegetarians are typically less vulnerable to these cancers than people who eat a lot of meat. Overall, studies comparing the health of vegetarians and meat-eaters show that the meat-eaters are twice as likely to die of heart disease as vegetarians are.Better health is one reason that people choose to become vegetarians. Another reason is religion. Some religions forbid the eating of meat. The largest of these is the Hindu religion, which has about 600 million believers in the world. Although not all Hindus are vegetarian, many are, and there are many believers of other religions such Buddhism and even some Christian religions that also do not eat meat.Many vegetarians do not eat meat simply because they do not like the taste of it. They have no religious or philosophical reasons; they just do not like meat. Another important reason that vegetarians give for not eating meat is the health advantages that were given above. Lastly, there are many people who do not eat meat because they just do not like the idea of killing animals for food. They believe that life, all life, is valuable , and that we do not have to destroy life to feed ourselves when there are other good sources of food.32. According to the passage, people choose to be vegetarians for the following reasonsEXCEPT________.A. they want to stay healthyB. they are too kind to put the idea of killing animalsC. they live in areas where meat supply is not adequateD. they should not eat meat due to their religious belief33. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2 ?A. Vegetarians enjoy a more healthy life than the meat eaters.B. Heart disease and cancer are caused by large amounts of protein.C. There are twice as many meat-eaters as vegetarians who die of cancer.D. There are less health problems in modern society due to advanced medical care.34. What does “vulnerable〞 mean in Paragraph 2?A. Having low level of cholesterol.B. Having high level of cholesterol.C. Having weak ability to resist diseases and harms.D. Having strong ability to resist disease and harms.35. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.A. being a vegetarian may be a very strange thingB. vegetarians eat meat on some special occasionsC. all vegetarians have reasons for their not eating meatD. most vegetarians believe that life without meat is happy.第二节〔共5小题;每一小题2分,总分为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优选项。

满分120分。
考试时间100分钟。
第Ⅰ卷第一部分: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。
AAccording to the US government, wind farms off the Pacific coast could produce 900 gigawatts of electricity every year. Unfortunately, the water there is far too deep for even the tallest windmills to touch bottom. An experiment under way off the coast of Norway, however, could help put them anywhere.The project, called Hywind, is the world’s first large-scale deepwater wind turbine (涡轮发电机). Although it uses a fairly standard 152-ton, 2. 3-megawatt turbine, Hywind represents totally new technology. The turbine will be fixed 213 feet above the water on a floating spar, a technology Hywind’s creator, the Norwegian company StatoilHydro, has developed recently. The steel spar, which is filled with stones and goes 328 feet below the sea surface, will be tied to the ocean floor by three cables ; these will keep the spar stable and prevent the turbine from moving up and down in the waves. Hywind’s stability in the cold and rough sea would prove that even the deepest corners of the ocean are suitable for wind power. If all goes according to the plan, the turbine will start producing electricity six miles off the coast of southwestern Norway as early as September.To produce electricity on a large scale, a commercial wind farm will have to use bigger turbines than Hywind does, but it’s difficult enough to balance such a large turbine so high on a floating spar in the middle of the ocean. To make that turbine heavier, the whole spar’s center of gravity must be moved much closer to the ocean’s surface. To do that, the company plans to design a new kind of wind turbine, one whose gearbox (变速箱) sits at sea level rather than behind the blades.Hywind is a test run, but the benefits for perfecting floating wind-farm technology could be extremely large. Out at sea, the wind is often stronger and steadier than close to shore, where all existing offshore windmills are planted. Deep-sea farms are invisible from land, which helps overcome the windmill-as-eyesore objection. If the technology catches on, it will open up vast areas of the plan et’s surface to one of the best low-carbon power sources available.1. The Hywind project uses totally new technology to ensure the stability of .A. the cables which tie the spar to the ocean floorB. the spar which is floating in deep-sea waterC. the blades driven by strong and steady sea windD. the stones filled in the spar below the sea surface2. To balance a bigger turbine high on a floating spar, a new type of turbine is to be designedwith its gearbox sitting .A. on the sea floorB. on the spar topC. at sea levelD. behind the blades3. Wide applications of deepwater wind power technology can .A. solve the technical problems of deepwater windmillsB. make financial profits by producing more turbinesC. settle the arguments about environmental problemsD. explore low-carbon power resources available at seaBMark and his brother Jason both were looking at the shining new computer enviously. Jason was determined not to go against their father's wishes but Mark was more adventurous than his brother. He loved experimenting and his aim was to become a scientist like his father.“Dad will be really mad if he finds out you've been playing with his new computer.”Jason said,“He told us not to touch it.”“He won't find out,” Mark said,“I'll just have a quick look and shut it down.” Mark had been scolded before for touching his father's equipment. But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new computer really puzzled him.It was a strangelooking machine—one his dad had brought home from the laboratory where he worked.“It's an experimental model,” his father had explained,“so don't touch it under any circumstances.” But his father's warning only served to make Mark more curious. Without any further thought,Mark turned on the power switch. The computer burst into life and seconds later,the screen turned into colors,shifting and changing and then two big white words appeared in the center of the screen:“SPACE TRANSPORTER.”“Yes!” Mark cried excitedly,“It's a computer game. I knew it!Dad's only been pretending to work. He's really been playing games instead.” A new message appeared on the screen:“ENTER NAMESVOYAGER 1:...VOYAGER 2:...”Mark's fingers flew across the keyboard as he typed in both of their names.“INPUT ACCEPTED.START TRANSPORT PROGRAM. AUTORETRIEVE INITIATED(自动回收程序已启动).”The screen turned even brighter and a noise suddenly rose in volume.“I think we'd better shut it off,Mark,” Jason yelled,reaching forthe power switch. He was really frightened.But his hand never reached the switch. A single beam of dazzling white light burst out of the computer screen,wrapping the boys in its glow(光芒),until they themselves seemed to be glowing. Then it died down just as suddenly as it had burst into life. And the boys were no longer there. On the screen,the letters changed.“TRANSPORT SUCCESSFUL.DESTINATION: MARS.RETRIEVE DATE:2025.”4.Why did Mark touch the computer against his father's warning?A.He wanted to take a voyage. B.He wanted to practice his skill.C.He was so much attracted by it. D.He was eager to do an experiment.5.Where did the boys' father most likely work?A.In an electronic factory. B.In a computer company. C.In a scientific research center. D.In an information processing center.6.Mark thought “SPACE TRANSPORTER” on the screen was the name of ________.A.a computer game B.a company websiteC.a software producer D.an astronomy program 7.Why did Jason want to shut off the computer?A.He was afraid of being scolded. B.He didn't like the loud noise and light.C.He didn't want to play games any more. D.He was afraid something dangerous might happen.CResearchers from France and Italy discovered that Canadian parents are less strict with their children than mothers and fathers in France and Italy.“Our most important finding was the difference between Canadians and the others,” said Professor Michel Claes,the lead author of the study.“Canadians focus on independence and negotiation. On the other hand,Italians,for example,exercise more control. We found Canadians seem to focus on negotiation in case of a conflict.”Claes said Canada,France and Italy were selected for the study because they share important cultural and social factors.“We chose FrenchCanadians because they share the same language as France,and originally came from France and share certain values. Italy was included because it was considered to have similar,strong and important family values,”he explained.The researchers examined the emotional ties between parents and their children by questioning 1,256 students aged 11 to 19 years old.Canadian students reported less control and more free actions,according to the study. Italian parents were stricter and French parentswere somewhere in the middle.Claes explains that the differences lie in education in Canada,France and Italy.“North America has its own educational values,which promote individualization. Tolerance and comprehension are encouraged. Italy,on the other hand,promotes respect of authority,control,and the need for permission.” he said.Children from all three countries described their mothers as warm and communicative. Italian and Canadian children had similar feelings about their fathers,and reported high levels of emotional ties. But French fathers were generally thought by their children to be more distant and cold.“We were surprised by this,” Claes admitted.“It seems as though the relationships between French mothers and their children were becoming closer over time,while fathers maintain a form of distance and coldness,which is more of a source of conflict in France than in the other countries.”8.Professor Michel Claes believes that Canada,France and Italy________.A.have the same family spirit B.have some similar cultural traditionsC.have experienced some similar social changes D.have experienced similar cultural developments9.How did the researchers carry out the study ?A.By collecting answers of parents from Canada,France and Italy. B.By collecting answers of children from Canada,France and Italy. C.By questioning parents and their children from Italian Canadian families.D.By questioning children from FrenchCanadian families.10. According to Michel Claes,what mainly leads to the differences in parentchildrenrelationships among Canada,France and Italy?A.Educational opportunities. B.Traditional ideas. C.Educational values. D.Historical events. 11.Which of the following is NOT a finding of the study?A.French children have troubled relationships with their parents. B.Canadian children have close relationships with their parents. C.Italian children have good relationships with their parents.D.Kids from Canada,France and Italy have closer ties with their moms.DAn idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起)the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong. In Chicago, the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program. As a result, reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character.The only problem arose in New York ,where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致)can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself. Ultinatelas Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process, or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.12. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?A. To invite authors to guide readers.B. To encourage people to read and share.C. To involve people in community service.D. To promote the friendship between cities.13. Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?A .They had little interest in reading. B. They were too busy to read a book.C. They came from many different backgroundsD. They lacked support from the local government14. According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?A. In large communities with little sense of unityB. In large cities where libraries are far from homeC. In medium-sized cities with a diverse populationD. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached15. According to Nancy, the degree of students of the project is judged byA. the careful selection of a proper bookB. the growing popularity of the writersC. the number of people who benefit from reading.D. the number of books that each person reads.第二节七选五填空 (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。

Greg Kloehn has given away at least 20 tiny houses. Several are on the roadside near an active railroad. On a recent day, Mr. Kloehn stops at one to visit Oscar Young. The two men hug. Inside his little shelter Mr. Young gets relief from cold nights on the streets. Mr. Kloehn also visits Sweet-Pea, another friend who also lives in one of the little homes the artist built. She says it keeps her safe and protects her belongings.
Some of the people living on the streets once had normal houses of their own. But some of the people say they have learned to live with less and they are thankful to that man.

B Most of us have quite good memories, but our memories are limited. For example, we cannot remember everyone we have ever met or what we did on every single day of our lives. However, there are some people who do have prodigious memories. These people have a rare condition known as savant syndrome (学者症候群). Savants suffer from a developmental disorder, but they also exhibit great talents that contrast(显出差异) sharply with their physical and mental disabilities.
Kim Peek (1951-2009) was a savant who lived in Salt Lake City, Utah, in the United States. He was born with damage to parts of his brain, but it seemed that other parts of his brain, particularly those relating to memory, became over-developed.
Peek’s unique abilities appeared at a very early age. When he was just 20 months old, he could already remember every book that was read to him. Peek could read two pages of a book at the same time---one page with the right eye and one with the left---in less than 10 seconds and remember everything he read. By the time he died, Peek had memorized more than 9,000 books. He could remember all the names and numbers in a variety of telephone books. He could remember thousands of facts about history, literature, geography and sports.

A. happy B. vivid C. amazing D. short

C. was the student of Dr. David Treffert D. became brain-damaged at 20 months old

27. Peek’s words suggest that we should ________. A. respect different cultures B. listen to different opinions
C. treat different people differently D. be respectful of others’differences
C Wild weather, unexpected coral reefs and dangerous sea creatures… these are the nightmares (噩梦) you can imagine a teenager on a solo voyage (独自旅行) around the world might suffer from. But for Laura Dekker, sailing around the globe seems less a price to be paid than a prize to be treasured.
With her yacht(游艇) Guppy, Dekker began her journey at 14 and sailed 50,004 kilometers in 519 days.
But these didn’t always go well. There were terrible moments in which Dekker feared death. On one occasion, a whale almost turned Guppy over. Another time, she battled extreme winds and Guppy surfed down 8-meter-high waves.
Out on the open sea alone, she also got used to living without a fridge, a flushing(用水冲洗) toilet, and a hot shower.
In fact, her outlook on life was shaped by the trip. “I wanted the storms. I wanted the calms. I wanted to feel
