The son was a thief who always went about stealing from people’s homes. He continued this bad lifestyle till the day his cup got filled. He stole heavy sum of money from the richest man in their village, but that day he didn’t escape successfully as he used to. The rich man contacted the police immediately when he found out that his money was missing and the police started investigating, and finally they found out that the boy stole the money so they sent him to prison.After some months, it was time for farming and the farmer was already old and weak and couldn’t dig the ground any more, so the old farmer wrote this letter to his son in prison. “Son, this year I will not plant cassava and yam because I can’t dig the field, I know if you were here you would have helped me”. The son was really touched by his father’s letter so he thought of a plan, and replied his father “Dad, don’t even think of digging the field because that’s where I buried the money I stole”.On reading this letter, the policeman went early in the morning and dug the whole field in search of the money but nothing was found. The next day the son wrote his father again “Dad, you can now plant your cassava and yam. This is the best I can do from here.”Dad replied “My son, you are too powerful indeed, even in prison you still command policemen to work for me. I was so surprised to see the policeman and his team holding hoes and shovels, digging my farm. Next time I will write to you when I want to harvest. 4．What happened to the boy after he got caught stealing?A．He was punished by the rich man.B．He was arrested and questioned by the policeC．He was sentenced to imprisonment.D．He returned the stolen money to its original owner.5．What can we learn from the story?A．Think outside the box.B．Every bean has its black.C．Slow and steady wins the race.D．Fortune favors the brave.6．What can be inferred from the passage?A．The boy buried the stolen money in his father’s field.B．The police believed what the boy wrote in the letter to his father.C．The boy had the power to command the police to dig the field for his father.D．The police would come and dig the field again when his father want to harvest. 7．What is the farmer’s attitude towards his son’s plan?A．favorable B．indifferent C．disapproving D．negativeLeaf peeping, the practice of traveling to watch nature display the fall colors, is a beloved annual activity, especially in New England. Typically, by the end of September, leaves take on warmer colors throughout the U.S. But this year, many areas haven’t even shaken off the green shades of summer. In Maine, forest rangers reported less than 70% color change and modest leaf drop.It’s commonly believed that trees, like people, must prepare for winter. When fall arrives, and day length and temperature drop, trees respond by ending green substance production and absorbing remaining nutrients, causing leaves to lose the original color. Greens give way to yellows, reds and oranges that make for dramatic autumn displays.Warm fall temperatures can make the fall colors appear later. Worse, dry summers can cause leaves to miss the fall color turn altogether. Delay of the start of the fall colors, which has been moving later into the fall, could continue. “My observations in the last decade have had more years that were later than what we consider historical averages. It can be a trend as the planet warms,” said the expert Jim Salge.It’s not just the plants that suffer. “Turning leaves offer an irresistible mass of color — which, by estimate, brings in as much as billions of dollars a year in tourism in New England,” said Andy Finton, a forest ecologist. That’s another good reason to focus on preserving forests. Leaf peeping can stay part of the area’s feature if forests are given enough protection. “If we can keep them unharmed, they’ll provide things we’ve depended on, as well as fall inspiration,” said Finton.8．What is special about the leaves in Maine this year?A．They take on warm colors.B．They drop earlier than normal.C．They stay green longer.D．They totally miss the fall color turn. 9．What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A．Ways of trees surviving winter.B．Explanation of leaves changing color.C．Functions of the green substance.D．Effect of climate change on fall leaves.10．What is the “trend” according to Jim Salge in paragraph 3?A．The earth gets drier.B．The temperature gets higher.C．The earth gets warmer.D．The leaves delay color change. 11．What’s the purpose of this text?A．To introduce leaf peeping.B．To report the right time for leaf peeping.C．To call on people to admire fall leaves.D．To warn people to take care of forests.Jason, a straight-A student from the University of Pennsylvania, uses the term “pseudo-working” to describe how many of us study. The pseudo-worker looks and feels like someone who is working hard- he or she spends a long time in the library and is not afraid to push on late into the night——but, because of a lack of focus and concentration, he or she doesn’t actually accomplish much.This phenomenon can be seen on most college campuses. For example, at Dartmouth there was a section of the main library that was open twenty-four hours a day, and the students I used to see there late at night crowded in groups, drinking coffee, were definitely pseudo-working. The roommate who flips through (快速翻转) her chemistry notes on the couch while watching TV is pseudo-working.By placing themselves in distracting environments and insisting on working long hours, these students are damaging their brain’s ability to think clearly and efficiently accomplish the task at hand. In the end they get half the results with twice the effort.The bigger problem here is that most students don’t even realize that they’re pseudo-working. To them pseudo-working is work- it’s how they’ve always done it, and it’s how all of their friends do it. It never crosses their mind that there might be a better way. Straight-A students, on the other hand, know all about pseudo-working. They fear it. It not only wastes time, but it’s also mentally tiring.In fact, the most important skill in becoming a straight-A student is the ability to get work done quickly and with a minimum of wasted effort. Some cognitive (认知) science research concludes that about fifty minutes is the optimal learning period to maximize the material integrated per time unit. So how do these students achieve this goal? To understand their secret to success, consider the following simple formula (公式): work accomplished = time spent × intensity of focus.Pseudo-working features a very low intensity of focus. Therefore, to accomplishsomething by pseudo-working, you need to spend a lot of time. The straight-A approach on the other hand, increases intensity in order to use less time.12．Which of the following phenomenon is pseudo-working?A．Tom is busy taking notes while attending a lecture.B．Mike is sitting at a schoolroom in preparation for a final exam quietly.C．Jack spends a long time in the library on his essay while listening to music.D．Alice and Sara are sitting on the couch reading their favorite books. 13．Compared with straight-A students, the major problem of most students is that ________.A．they want to spend more time on studyB．they are eager to follow their friends’ wayC．they have got used to their study approachD．they are unaware of their pseudo-working14．What does the underlined word “optimal” mean in paragraph 5?A．Last B．Best C．Least D．Worst 15．What does the author want to stress by mentioning the formula?A．Concentration plays a key role in study.B．The length of time on study counts.C．Getting work done quickly means everything.D．Effective study approach is very important.二、七选五The most relaxing colors are generally believed to be cool shades such as green and blue.where people may want some help to ease their nerves and bad emotions.Home designers note that people often describe rooms painted blue and green as relaxing and comfortable. As a result, architects often use colors from the cool part of the color circle in bedrooms and bathrooms. 17Driving down a highway. you’ll notice that some signs consist of white letters on a dark green background. 18 Another place where we see green used is in the “green room” of theaters or television studios because nervous performers are quieted by the color. This is also the reason why doctors wear green clothes in the operating room. And prison cells oftenpaint their walls green for the same effect.19 Our eyes sense color using tiny sensors sensitive to the red light, the green light or the blue light. However, generally they are the most sensitive to the green light. Researchers think that this sensitivity to green objects might affect hormonal production that in turn influences the mood. What’s more, recent studies have shown that when a person looks at the green colored paper or is placed in a green room, their heart rate drops, blood pressure lowers, and muscles relax. 20 So next time you’re feeling nervous or upset, please try to focus your eyes on something green instead of red.A．There was research into colors in ancient times.B．In contrast, hot colors cause these to rise.C．Different colors can cause different psychological reactions.D．Engineers determine such signs won’t get people’s eyes tired.E．And painters often use blues and greens on walls and ceilings.F．Scientists have found some evidence for the magic power of green.G．It is agreed that the two can make us feel calm, balanced and less emotional.三、完形填空My parents, siblings (兄弟姐妹) and I took our first camping trip to the Lake Houstoncampsite. 32 hiking in the forest, we had a lovely late afternoon boating.

河北省秦皇岛市青龙满族自治县实验中学2022-2023学年高二上学期12月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Jane, a student of Oxford University, has bought a bicycle and is concerned about the safety of her new bike. Her friend, Kate, found this article and sent it to her.How to make your bicycle safe?A number of crimes(罪行) are against bicycles. About 150,000 bicycles are stolen every year and most of them are never found. You can prevent this from happening by following a few careful steps.Basic SecurityNever leave your bicycle in out-of-the-way places. Always lock your bicycle when you leave. Secure it to lamp posts or trees. Take off smaller parts and carry them with you, for example lights and saddles (车座).LocksThere are various types of locks. Buy one that has been tested against attack. Ask for a suggestion from a bike shop owner.MarkingThe security marking of your bike can act as a prevention of being stolen, which can also help the police find your bicycle. Your postcode and your house or flat number should be included and clearly recorded. This will provide a simple way to recognize your bicycle. Registration (注册)There are many companies that will offer the security marking to your bicycle. They will then store your registration number and personal details in their computer database(数据库). If your bicycle is found, it will be easy to contact you.AttentionKeep a record of the bicycle by yourself: its production place, model and registration number. You can even take a photograph of it. This will prove the bicycle belongs to you. 1．Which part of the article gives the information on how to lock your bicycle when you leave?A．Basic Security B．LocksC．Marking D．Registration2．Which one is WRONG about the security marking of a bicycle?A．It can help the police to find and recognize the lost bike.B．Some companies can help you in marking the bike.C．It can make sure that the bike won’t be stolen.D．The security marking database makes it easy to get in touch with the owner.3．The article advises you to keep a record of your bicycle _______.A．by both your friend and your parentsB．both in a security company and Oxford UniversityC．by yourself and in a security company that offers security markingD．in the police station as well as Oxford University4．To make your bike safe, which of the following information need NOT be recorded?A．your registration number and personal detailsB．the lock you buy and the suggestion from a bike shop ownerC．the production place of the bike and your addressD．both the type of the bike and its pictureCuckoos (布谷鸟) are masters of cheating. When it comes to raising young, they don’t spend the energy building a nest (鸟巢), protecting eggs or feeding children. Instead the female passes these roles on to other birds. They don’t raise their own young. Usually, they lay their eggs in the nests of other birds, fooling other birds into thinking the cuckoo eggs are theirs.To succeed in doing this, a female cuckoo watches over her chosen nest to observe feeding times. When the host parent leaves its nest in search of food, the cuckoo quickly lays her eggs among those already in the nest. Sometimes, she will even destroy and remove one of the host’s eggs to make room for her own.Cuckoos are medium-sized birds with long tails, and often have gray or brown backs. When they hatch (孵化) and begin to grow in a host’s nest, the difference between the two can be obvious to an onlooker. Often the cuckoo is twice the size of its foster parents, but still continues to receive food from them.The cuckoo imposter (冒名顶替者) is usually the only baby bird that the host parent has to care for. This is because when the cuckoo hatches after around 11 days, it gets rid of all theother eggs in the nest. It will lift each egg onto its back before throwing them one by one over the edge of the nest. Even then, the non-biological parent will continue to treat it as one of its own.Also, cuckoos have developed to produce eggs that are similar in color to their main hosts’. This reduces the chances of eggs being attacked. Female cuckoos have been known to take host birds’ attention away after laying their eggs by producing a noise similar to Eurasian sparrowhawks, scaring birds away from returning to the nest and allowing time for the cuckoo to make her escape unnoticed.5．What do mother cuckoos usually do when it comes to raising their young?A．Attend to eggs.B．Build a new nest.C．Rely on other birds.D．Learn feeding skills.6．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．Other cuckoos.B．Baby cuckoos.C．Its host parents.D．Its birth parents. 7．What can be inferred about the cuckoo imposter?A．It usually hatches out earlier than the other eggs in the nest.B．It throws all the other eggs out of nests with its mother’s help.C．It often makes a noise to scare other birds away from the nest.D．It looks much larger than other eggs in the nest before hatching.8．Which can be the best title for the text?A．How cuckoos fool other birds B．How cuckoos protect their childrenC．How cuckoos destroy others’ nests D．How cuckoos produce eggs in host nestsBlink: a boy, aged 18Birth date: October 15th, 1991Speaking: English, RussianNow in: Dodge City, KansasFrom: Pratt, KansasLearning: Japanese, Chinese, SpanishAbout me: I love all outdoor activities, especially playing ball games, traveling, and climbing.I play the guitar, and can say that I’m really good at it.

How long they are motionless depends on the circumstances, but they can wait out their predators for quite a long time when their lives are in danger.Animals stay still to avoid capture for different lengths of time. “Most intriguingly, Charles Darwin recorded a beetle that remained motionless for 23 minutes. Antlions, our favorite study creature in this regard, set a record of 61 minutes,” says lead author Nigel R. Franks from the University of Bristol.Antlions are members of large group of insects. Antlion larvae（幼虫）dig pits in loose soil and then aggressively attack ants and other small insects that fall into the sandy pits. In another study, researchers dug sandpits to understand the physics of how antlion larvae build their pits. As part of their research they needed to weigh the individual larvae. When they put them onto the microbalance scale to weigh them, they noticed that the larvae remained motionless for long periods of time. “This made it ‘piece of cake’ to weigh them but it aroused researchers’ curiosity, ‘What on earth were they playing at?’” Franks says.The researchers found that the amount of time the antlions remained stationary after being disturbed was unpredictable and was often quite lengthy. In researching other animals, they found that how long they wait to move again can depend on factors such as hunger andtemperature, but it always varies.This unpredictability is absolutely crucial for their survival, Franks says. For example, if a bird visits these antlion pits and the larvae “play dead”. the birds will fly around the antlions to see if they move. “Imagine if antlions always remained immobile for 5 minutes. In such case, the predator could look for alternate prey（猎物）and then return to its original one when the time is up,” he says. “If that happened, it would be a short life for the predictable death-feigner.” But because the time is unpredictable, the birds leave and go find something else to eat. The predators turn their attention from the unmoving prey that no longer catches their eye to something nearby that is a better alternative.12．What is the new study about?A．Animals’ hunting skills.B．Animals’ living conditions.C．Animals’ self-protecting behavior.D．Animals’ means of communication.13．Why did the author mention another research in paragraph 3?A．To introduce a new topic for discussion.B．To offer supporting data for the discovery.C．To make a comparison between the two studies.D．To provide some background information on the study.14．What does the underlined word “stationary” probably mean in paragraph 4?A．Unmoving.B．Alarmed.C．Energetic.D．Peaceful. 15．How do antlions take advantage of playing dead according to the last paragraph?A．By scaring away predators.B．By distracting predators’ attention.C．By staying still for an uncertain amount of time.D．By waiting for predators to eat something else二、七选五Where would you be without your legs and feet? They do a lot to get you where you need to go.But sometimes, kids have problems with these important body parts. Their legs and feetmight look different or might not work exactly the way they should. 16 They either go away on their own or the kid learns to handle them by using stuff like special shoe inserts.Pigeon ToesPigeon toes, or inwardly turning toes, is a common foot condition in kids. It occurs when the front of the foot is turned inward, facing the other foot. 17 Most kids’ feet straighten naturally without any medical treatment.18When someone stands with the feet and ankles together but the knees widely apart, we call that being bowlegged. Many babies are born bowlegged because their legs were folded tightly across their bellies while they were growing inside their mom. Bowlegs usually straighten once babies with this condition start to walk and their legs bear weight. By the age of 3, most kids grow out of the condition.Knock-KneesKnock-knees is a condition where the legs curve in at the knees so much that the ankles are separated. 19 But around the age of 6, the body begins to straighten naturally, and within a few years most kids can stand with their knees and ankles touching at the same time.Flatfeet20 Rise up on your toes. Can you see the arch in the bottom of your feet? Most of us have some sort of arch on the bottom of the feet between our toes and heel. Someone who doesn’t have this curve might have flexible flatfeet.A．BowlegsB．Full ArchC．Stand sideways in front of a mirror.D．Boys and girls both experience pigeon toes.E．In other words, if your feet are flat, they’re fine!F．The good news is that these problems usually aren’t serious.G．Lots of kids become knock-kneed between the ages of 3 and 5.三、完形填空The first time I heard about several cases of the coronavirus was January, 2020. However,unexpected, and all university teachers and students were 23 .Due to the coronavirus pandemic, in our university the student-run free dental clinics are closed 24 and most research labs are only open for 25 number of students. Therefore, I have had a lot more spare time than before, since most of the events have been held online. To 26 time, I learned to follow 27 to make different dishes. The period of quarantine (隔离) has become a time when I can learn some new life 28 .Besides cooking, I have been 29 a new hobby — playing puzzles. At first, solving a puzzle was just a way for me to 30 patience. Then I realized that I learned much more than that. When I 31 1, 000 pieces of a puzzle on the table, I 32 not buying a simpler one. I suddenly realized I was so impatient that I couldn’t even focus on such a simpler 33 .Electronic devices have been training me to constantly stare at a blinking (闪烁) screen and 34 what I should do. So I decided to solve a puzzle to stay away 35 devices for several hours, and enjoy one simple task like a little child.When I started to look for different pieces to see if they could fit in a larger 36 , I started to look for short cuts (捷径) by collecting puzzles with similar patterns or colors and 37 their edges.During this time, I slowly forgot all the 38 of quarantine life. Every time I put one piece in the right place, I was 39 awarded by such a small success and encouraged to keep on trying.

AFourteen­year­old Richie Hawley had spent five years studying violin at the munity School of Performing Arts in Los Angeles when he took part in a violin contest. Ninety­two young people were invited to the contest and Hawley came out first.The contest could have been the perfect setup for fear, worrying about mistakes, and trying to impress the judges. But Hawley said he did pretty well at staying calm. “I couldn't be thinking about how many mistakes I'd make —it would distract me from playing.” he says. “I don't even remember trying to impress people while I played. It's almost as if they weren't there. I just wanted to make music.”Hawley is a winner. But he didn't bee a winner by concentrating on winning. He did it by concentrating on playing well.“The important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part，” said the founder of the modern Olympics, Pierre de Coubertin. “The important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essentialthing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.”A characteristic of high performers is their intense, pleasurable concentration on work, rather than on their petitors or future glory or money, says Dr. Charles Garfield, who has studied 1,500 achievers in business, science, sports, arts, and professions. “They are interested in winning, but they're most interested in self­development, testing their limits.”One of the most surprising things about top performers is how many losses they've had —and how much they've learned from each. “Not one of the 1,500 I studied defined losing as failing，” Garfield says. “They kept calling their losses ‘setback’．”A healthy attitude towards setbacks is essential to winning, experts agree.“The worst thing you can do if you've had a setback is to let yourself get stuck in a prolonged depression. You should analyze carefully what went wrong, identify specific thing s you did right and give yourself credit for them.” Garfield believes that most people don't give themselves enough praise. He even suggests keeping a diary of all the positive things you've done on the way to a goal.1. What is mon among high performers is that they tend to give priority to ________. A．glory B. Wealth C. pleasure D. Work2.According to the passage, successful people concentrate on _______.A．challenging their own limits B. learning from othersC. defeating their opponentsD. avoiding setbacks3.The passage tells us that “praise” in times of trouble ________.A．helps people deal with their disappointment B. makes people forget their setbacksC. makes people regret about their pastD. helps people realize their goalsBThirteen vehicles lined up last March to race across the Mojave Desert, seekinga million in prize money. To win, they had to finish the 142­mile race in less than10 hours. Teams and watchers knew there might be no winner at all, because these vehicles were missing a key part — drivers.DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, organized the race as part of a push to develop robotic vehicles for future battlefields. But the Grand Challenge, as it was called, just proved how difficult it is to get a car to speed across an unfamiliar desert without human guidance. One had its brake lock up in the starting area. Another began by throwing itself onto a wall. Another got tied up by bushes near the road after 1.9 miles.One turned upside down. One took off in entirely the wrong direction and had to be disabled by remote control. One went a little more than a mile and rushed into a fence; another managed to go for six miles b ut stuck on a rock. The “winner”，if there was any, reached 7.8 miles before it ran into a long narrow hole, and the front wheels caught on fire.“You get a lot of respect for natural abilities of the living things，” says Reinhold Behringe, who helped desi gn two of the car­size vehicles for a pany called Sci­Autonics.“Even ants can do all these tasks effortlessly. It's very hard for us to put these abilities into our machines.”The robotic vehicles, though with necessary modern equipment such as advanced puters and GPS guidance, had trouble figuring out fast enough the blocks ahead that a two­year­old human recognizes immediately. Sure, that very young child, who has just only learned to walk, may not think to wipe apple juice off her face, but she already knows that when there's a cookie in the kitchen she has to climb up the table, and that when she gets to the cookie it will taste good. She is more advanced, even months old, than any machine humans have designed.4．Watchers doubted if any of the vehicles could finish the race because ________.A. they did not have any human guidanceB. the road was not familiar to the driversC. the distance was too long for the vehiclesD. the prize money was unattractive to the drivers5．From the passage we know “robotic vehicles” are a kind of machines that________.A. can do effortlessly whatever tasks living things canB. can take part in a race across 142­miles with a time limitC. can show off their ability to turn themselves upside downD. can move from place to place without being driven by human beings6．In the last paragraph, the author implies that there is a long way to go ________.A. for a robotic vehicle to finish a 142­mile race without any difficultiesB. for a little child who has just learned to walk to reach the cookie on the tableC. for a robotic vehicle to deal with a simple problem that a little child can solveD. for a little child to understand the importance of wiping apple juice off his/her faceCAs long as I can remember, I've always loved to draw. But my interest in drawing wasn't encouraged very much. Growing up in the 1950s, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, boys were supposed to be athletic. Certain peer pressures encouraged little fingers to learn how to hold footballs rather than crayons.My early love for drawing developed into a love for telling stories through pictures. Stories began as fragments (片段) of pictures in my mind. I created a story by posing questions to myself. I called it the “what if” and “what then” approach. For example, for my book The Polar Express, I started out by thinking “What if a boy gets on that train? Where does he go？”From the time I e up with the idea, write and illustrate the book, and deliver it to the printer, it takes about seven months. First, I begin thinking of the idea. Then I imagine the pictures and the story. A good picture book should have events that are visually arresting. I first consider scenes that are exciting to look at and then my challenge is to weave a story around those pictures. The next step is putting the illustrations and story down on paper.When you first look at my illustrations, you see ordinary, everyday things. Butif you look closer, things might not seem quite so simple. When I'm writing a book, I always try to create something strange or puzzling in each picture. By using artistic strategies, I can give the drawing a kind of mysterious quality.All of my books are picture books, so they are generally thought of as books for children. But when I make them, I think of the books as being for everybody — for people of all ages. When I was a kid, I had no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up, but now I'm really glad I became an artist and a storyteller.7．Why does the author mention The Polar Express?A. To tell us an interesting story.B. To introduce his famous work.C. To make up a sentence with “what if”．D. To show us how he designed his book.8．The underlined word “arresting” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.A. frighteningB. interestingC. satisfyingD. worrying9．Which of the following is TRUE about the author?A. He did well when he was at school.B. He only wrote something for children.C. He tried his best to meet the readers' taste.D. He regretted not working hard at drawing.10．What would be the best title for this passage?A. Telling Stories by DrawingB. “What if” and “What Then”C. How to Tell Interesting StoriesD. Working as a Famous Storyteller第二节：七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）The Value of a DollarIf you find a single one dollar bill in your pocket, what could you do with it? __11__ If you take a few moments to think about the value of that dollar, you'd find that it can actually get you further than you think.Pay a visit to your local dollar store.

An advertisementD. A business planBWhen rabbits first crossed into Western Australia(WA) from South Australia (SA), their progress seemed surprisingly fast.Thomas Austin, an English settler in Australia, first released wild rabbits from England in 1859, at Winchelsea in southern Victoria of Australia. By 1891, 32 yearslater, they’d reached Fowlers Bay on South Australia’s southwest coast about 1,250 km away--- covering an average of 40 km a year. But just five years later, in 1896, they were spotted 640 km further west in Twilight Cove, south of Cocklebiddy, in WA--- spreading, on average, at 130 km a year.How did they more than triple(使增至三倍) their previous rate? With help, it seems, from humankind. In his 1969 book, They All RanWild, farmer-author Eric Rolls described rabbits as generally unadventurous. They’d much prefer a stable life in a safe place with a familiar community than to be travelling. Only floods, food shortage or very serious overcrowding force them to move.By the 1880s rabbits were spreading through SA and humans were helping them. People released rabbits for sport, food or to remind them of the old country. And they killed possible predators(食肉动物) such as wedge- tailed eagles and dingoes. Eric Rolls wrote, swaggies(流浪汉) were the main human helpers. “In that container as they walked west out of South Australia was often a nest of three-week-old rabbit kittens completely furred and beautiful, to be set down at a good big rock-hole with some grass about it.”The rabbits’ westward speed from the border put an end to any idea that WA’s bad environment would block the invasion. They stuck close to what’s now the Eyre Highway, then moved southward to follow the better vegetated coastline. About the same time further north, rabbits were pouring into WA from the Northern Territory.Rabbits reached the west coast in 1907, the year the third fence was completed. The following year, when a WA Rabbit Department official visited the Kalbarri end of the fence, he found rabbits up and down the coast on both sides of it.25. What do we know about the first rabbits in Australia?A. They escaped from a house.B. They were from Western Australia.C. They were set free by human beings.D. They were born at Winchelsea.26.How did Eric Rolls describe rabbits?A. They had a habit of changing places.B. They didn’t like taking risks.C. They had a liking for travelling.D. They could hardly survive floods.27. Why did people think rabbits could not reach Western Australia at the beginning?A. The distance was too long.B. The rock holes were not good shelter.C. The natural conditions were poor.D. The coastline was not their favorite place.28. What did the WA Rabbit Department official find out?A. Rabbits had invaded the west coast.B. Rabbits were jumping over the fence.C. Kalbarri was the end of the fence.D. The third fence was damaged.CA primary school in Britain has put up signs to warn parents, who are addicted to playing with their phones, to greet their children with a smile rather than stare at their screens. It has become a common sight at the school gates to see children running up to their parents, only to find their parents are absorbed in reading news online, reading e-books, or watching their favorite videos.Now the headmaster at a primary school in Middlesbrough has put up the signs at all three entrances to the school. The signs say,“Greet your child with a smile, not a mobile.” And under the words, a picture of a woman holding a phone to her ear is crossed out in a red circle. The headmaster said,“We are trying to develop students’ speaking and listening skills and we think it is a simple way to get the message across. It isn’t only an issue among parents, but it also emphasizes that speaking and listening can help students to have discussions.”The move had different responses. Danielle Parker, a parent, said,“I think the signs are unacceptable because most parents pick their children up with phones.” Another parent said,“It’s a good thing. Greeting children with smiles can also develop the relationship between parents and children.” Some parents when questionedwere hesitant about the signs. Lindan Bradley, a pupil at the school, said he agreed with the signs, saying,“Why should children see parents playing their mobile phones all the time?”Last year, research warned that parents’ devotion to cellphones had made some neglected children start primary school unable to hold conversations. Almost a third of children are not ready for the classroom when they start school.29. Why did the school put up signs at its entrances?A. To encourage parents to meet pupils with smiles.B. To describe a common sight of its school gates.C. To remind pupils to be careful while walking.D. To introduce the primary school to parents.30. What does the underlined“it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Playing with the phones.B. Greeting children.C. Putting up sighs.D. Smiling.31. Wh at’s the third paragraph mainly about?A. Parents’ attitude to the school.B. Mixed opinions about the signs.C. Ideas from pupils of this school.D. Comments on playing with phones.32. What maybe the effect of parents’ devotion to playing phones?A. It may reduce pupils’ time spent on phones.B. It may discourage students from working hard.C. It may make students be addicted to computer games.D. It may cause children to lack the ability of communication.DWhen I got off the bus in Mae Hong Son in Thailand, I still felt a bit dizzy after all the curves(弯道) when coming from Chiang Mai. But when I burst into the small night market and got the astonishing view of the temple, the lights sparking in the lake right in front of it made the hardship of the bus ride a distant memory.During my six-week voluntary work, this became my favorite place. The sunsets,。
